Gazette theme problem

Hi,
     I tag my posts with "featured", they won't appear in the featured section of the theme (above the menu).

I've tried installing and reinstalling, both from downloading it as .

zip for my self-hosted and from the SVN?

Any suggestion?


Please help.

Thanks!

I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
