Produced and Curated by Al Kooper, Monumental Career-Spanning Retrospective Debuts Previously Unreleased Tracks from Early Demos (1964) through His Final Public Performance (in 1980 with Bob Dylan)
3CD/1DVD Collection premieres "Sweet Blues: A Film about Michael Bloomfield" Directed by Bob Sarles
* * * * *
"The first time I saw Michael play guitar…it literally changed my life enough for me to say, 'this is what I want to do for the rest of my life.'" -- Carlos Santana
"Best guitar player I ever heard" -- Bob Dylan
"The future of rock guitar was in 'East-West.' At one point or another you're hearing what would become the Grateful Dead, Santana, the Allman Brothers, Crazy Horse, Television and the Tedeschi Trucks Band." -- Dave Alvin
"Mike Bloomfield is music on two legs." -- Eric Clapton

Legacy Recordings, the catalog division of Sony Music Entertainment, announces the upcoming release of From His Head To His Heart To His Hands (http://smarturl.it/mbloomfield_amzn), a career-spanning 3CD/1DVD box set anthology chronicling the music of Michael Bloomfield, on February 4, 2014.
Produced and curated by Al Kooper (who played with Mike Bloomfield on Bob Dylan's Highway 61 Revisited sessions in 1965 and the Super Session album in 1968), From His Head to His Heart to His Hands premieres a wealth of previously unreleased tracks--including Bloomfield's first demos for John Hammond Sr.in 1964 and his final public performance, climaxing with a track from the 1980 Bob Dylan concert in San Francisco--alongside essential key recordings, both live and studio, from his all-too-brief life and career. The anthology collates solo material, work with ensembles including the Paul Butterfield Blues Band and the Electric Flag, tracks with Muddy Waters and Janis Joplin, "Highway 61" band outtakes and more.
From His Head to His Heart to His Hands premieres "Sweet Blues: A Film about Michael Bloomfield." Directed by Bob Sarles, the documentary combines vintage audio interviews and live performance footage of Bloomfield with newly lensed reflections on the artist from the guitarist's friends and fellow musicians.
A thoughtful and revealing retrospective, From His Head to His Heart to His Hands provides a fresh appreciation for the enduring musical achievements and ongoing influence of Michael Bloomfield, a musician's musician, both sideman and superstar. The box includes a 40-page booklet featuring a gallery of striking photos covering the various phases of Mike's extraordinary career and extensive liner notes by musician, MOJO contributor, and lifelong Bloomfield fan Michael Simmons.
Born in Chicago in 1943, Mike Bloomfield learned blues guitar as a teenager hanging out in the clubs of the South Side, where he "played with every living musician who played electric blues" in real time with masters like B.B. King, Albert King, Freddie King, Buddy Guy, Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Big Joe Williams and many more) from 1959 into the early 1960s.
A blues artist, Bloomfield was also a musical prodigy who assimilated jazz and world musics into his fluid improvisational music. As a final cog in the wheel of the original Paul Butterfield Blues Band, one of rock's first interracial bands and one of the blue's first experimental ensembles, Bloomfield helped open new vistas of cultural and musical possibilities in 1965-66.
Bloomfield, who'd been signed in 1964 by legendary A&R man John Hammond Sr., was called into duty as a session guitar player for Bob Dylan's Highway 61 Revisited album. The results, particularly the single "Like A Rolling Stone," took rock radio in a whole new direction while Mike Bloomfield went to work on the Butterfield Band's psychedelic blues masterpiece, East-West (1966), a landmark recording combining elements of blues, jazz, psychedelia, Eastern music and more.
Bloomfield founded The Electric Flag, an experimental soul band fronted by horns and humming with high energy, in 1968. That same year, he sat in for the Grape Jam disc in Moby Grape's sophomore double album and collaborated with Al Kooper on the platinum-selling Super Session LP.
From 1968-69, Bloomfield would continue to release innovative, guitar-heavy works, including his debut solo album It's Not Killing Me and My Labors with Electric Flag member Nick Gravenites. His career was later highlighted by session work including Muddy Waters' Fathers And Sons and Janis Joplin's solo debut I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama! As well as recorded sit-ins with Woody Herman and Tracy Nelson.

A Northwestern University research team has found a way to manufacture single laser devices that are the size of a virus particle and that operate at room temperature.
These plasmonic nanolasers could be readily integrated into silicon-based photonic devices, all-optical circuits and nanoscale biosensors.
Reducing the size of photonic and electronic elements is critical for ultra-fast data processing and ultra-dense information storage. The miniaturization of a key, workhorse instrument -- the laser -- is no exception.
The results are published in the journal Nano Letters.
"Coherent light sources at the nanometer scale are important not only for exploring phenomena in small dimensions but also for realizing optical devices with sizes that can beat the diffraction limit of light," said Teri Odom, a nanotechnology expert who led the research.
Odom is the Board of Lady Managers of the Columbian Exposition Professor of Chemistry in the Weinberg College of Arts and Sciences and a professor of materials science and engineering in the McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science.
"The reason we can fabricate nano-lasers with sizes smaller than that allowed by diffraction is because we made the lasing cavity out of metal nanoparticle dimers -- structures with a 3-D 'bowtie' shape," Odom said.
These metal nanostructures support localized surface plasmons -- collective oscillations of electrons -- that have no fundamental size limits when it comes to confining light.
The use of the bowtie geometry has two significant benefits over previous work on plasmon lasers: (1) the bowtie structure provides a well-defined, electromagnetic hot spot in a nano-sized volume because of an antenna effect, and (2) the individual structure has only minimal metal "losses" because of its discrete geometry.
"Surprisingly, we also found that when arranged in an array, the 3-D bowtie resonators could emit light at specific angles according to the lattice parameters," Odom said.
The Nano Letters paper, titled "Plasmonic Bowtie Nanolaser Arrays," is available at http://dx.doi.org/10.1021/nl303086r.

Structural control and origin of volcanism in the Taupo volcanic zone, New Zealand

Taupor volcanic zone (TVZ) is the currently active volcanic arc and back-arc basin of the Taupo-Hikurangi arc-trench system, North Island, New Zealand. The volcanic arc is best developed at the southern (Tongariro volcanic centre) end of the TVZ, while on the eastern side of the TVZ it is represented mainly by dacite volcanoes, and in the Bay of Plenty andesite/dacite volcanoes occur on either side of the Whakatane graben. The back-arc basin is best developed in the central part of the TVZ and comprises bimodal rhyolite and high-alumina basalt volcanism. Widespread ignimbrite eruptions have occurred from this area in the past 0.6 Ma. Normal faults occur in both arc and back-arc basin. They are generally steeply dipping (>40°) and strike between 040° and 080°. In the back-arc basin, fault zones are en echelon and have the same trend as alignments of rhyolite domes and basalt vents. Open fissures have formed during historic earthquakes along some of the faults, and geodetic measurements on the north side of Lake Taupo suggest extension of 14±4 mm/year. In the Bay of Plenty and ML=6.3 earthquake occurred on 2 March 1987. Modelling of known structure in the area together with data derived from this earthquake suggests block faulting with faults dipping 45°±10° NW and a similar dip is suggested by seismic profiling of faults offshore of the Bay of Plenty where extension is estimated to be 5±2 mm/year. To the east of the TVZ, the North Island shear belt (NISB) is a zone of reverse-dextral, strike-slip faults, the surface expression of which terminates at the eastern end of the TVZ. On the opposite side of the TVZ in the offshore western Bay of Plenty and on line with the NISB is the Mayor Island fault belt. If the two fault belts were once continuous, as seems likely, strike-slip faults probably extend through the basement of the TVZ. When extension associated with the arc and back-arc basin is combined with these strike-slip faults, the resulting transtension provides a suitable tectonic environment for caldera formation and voluminous ignimbrite eruptions in the back-arc basin. The types of volcano in the TVZ are considered to be related to the source of magma and overlying crustal structure. Lavas of the arc are probably formed by a multistage process involving (1) subsolidus slab dehydration, (2) anatexis of the mantle wedge, (3) fractionation and minor crustal assimilation and (4) magma mixing. High-alumina basalts of the back-arc basin may be derived by partial melting of peridotite at the top of the mantle wedge, while rhyolitic magmas are thought to come from partial melting of lavas and subvolcanic reservoirs associated with the southern end of the Coromandel volcanic zone. Extreme thinning associated with transtension in the back-arc basin will favour the eruption of large-volume, gas-rich ignimbrites accompanied by caldera formation.

A word from Jean Farris Winery & Bistro
From its inception, Jean Farris has embraced our families' history in agriculture, and, our passion for fine cuisine. With us, wine is best when sharing a table with good friends and good food.
Here on the estate we grow our own fruits, vegetables, herbs, eggs, and honey to use in the
winery and in the kitchen. We serve our farm products with the wine, beer, and spirits that speak of our region. To us "Home-made" is a practice not a philosophy. With that our menu changes serveral times a year, reflecting the seasons. Staying in time and in touch with the cycles of seasons and what is naturally available to us.
We look forward to having you joining us at our table and sharing a night at Jean Farris.

Diner Reviews
Went for our Anniversary. Had a
very nice, quite dinner. Wine was very good and the dinner was excellent. Will definitely go again. It was dark, so we couldn't see the view. Have heard it's really nice. Will try and take that in next time."
Dined on 11/19/2014
Great far service, food and a
beautiful restaurant. Far enough out to feel like you're getting away but still close to town."
Dined on 11/14/2014
Impeccable sevice, wonderful food,
and a perfect location make Jean Faris a wonderful place to dine either for brunch or supper. A group of six of us dined there on a Tuesday night on a gloomy November night. Our server was extremely knowledgeble and friendly. He provided great service and made the food even better. The new full service bar i great. Only top shelf liquor makes a difference. Going back again his Friday."
Dined on 11/11/2014
Jean Farris is off the beaten path
and the drive way can be a bit tricky to find after dark. They have an extensive cocktail menu as well as their wine list. Nightly specials are my go to. The ravioli is not what I am accustomed to in this area, so check it out before ordering. Service has always been excellent"
Dined on 11/7/2014
This is a beautiful restaurant
with a great atmostphere and a wonderful staff. The food, however, is not up to the front of the house. The French onion soup was wimpy with few onions and weak broth. The steak and carrots were cooked over too high of a heat, quickly cooking the outside, but leaving the insides well under cooked. The pork was bland -- the plate needed a leader for the other tastes to follow. Not seasoned well. The Kentucky wines were surprisingly good and we would recommend them. With better performance from the kitchen, this could be an outstanding place. Right now, stop in for the wine and enjoy the atmosphere and you won't be disappointed."
Dined on 11/6/2014
my wife and i went to jean farris
for our anniversary dinner. i made reservations online then called ahead the day of to tell them that it was our anniversary and that i would appreciate a little special treatment if possible (for which i would have tipped large). the man on the phone acted like this was a fairly normal request (as i thought it should be) and he would let my server know. when we got there, nothing different was done and they sat a group right next to us. i was expecting a secluded table or something to that effect at least. regardless, we had a good time and i'm sure we will be back. the server was a fill-in and normally bar-tended which made for a humorous experience at least."
Dined on 11/1/2014
We had a new server that had
difficulty handling the wine. She couldn't get the bottle open then as she left our table she recorked the red wine rather than leave it open to breathe. She held onto the cork rather than let my husband inspect it to make sure it wasn't dry. Hopefully, she will improve as she has more experience but since this is a winery, you would have expected more training on how to serve wine."
Dined on 11/1/2014
We had a romantic dinner
overlooking the beautiful sunset over the Jean Farris Vineyard. The food was amazing! The chicken and mac and cheese over braised kale was one of the best meals I have had this year. We had wine flights and discovered some really nice bold reds including the cab sav and pinot noir! All in all it was a wonderfully romantic evening and this place is on our list to revisit when we come back in town."
Dined on 10/24/2014
We were seated in the enclosed
patio area. The evening started out great then a table of 10-12 women came in and the noise level got out of control! The patio floor is concrete, so it did not absorb any noise. We could not even hear each other talk. Luckily, our meal was almost over. Two other tables asked to be moved , and they did move them. The problem is that the other areas were small, so not everyone could move. My concern is that you can not guarentee where you would be seated when you make a reservation. I would hesitate to return since all large parties are seated in the enclosed patio."
Dined on 10/17/2014
Enjoyed a wonderful meal at Jean
Farris. Food was delicious. Server was attentive and knowlegeable. View was gorgeous. A great place to enjoy a special occasion or just a meal out. Menu has something for everyone for brunch. Can't wait to go back for dinner!"
Dined on 10/12/2014
I love Jean Farris. This is the
first place I book reservations when I know we are heading to Lexington. Love the food. Love the wine (am even a Wine Club Member and I live in VA). And, the service and view is ideal. A "must go!""
Dined on 10/10/2014
You know the place is special when
it's pricey, out of the way, and STILL packed for dinner. The menu is not extensive but so well-chosen as to have something for virtually everyone. And the evening's specials are almost always the way to go for their inventiveness, ingredient quality, and aptness for the season. In addition to their lovely presentation, the portion sizes come dangerously close to spoiling room for dessert. Wine list is very good, as might be expected. The Jean Farris wines are worth a try (a flight is a good way to do that) and I loved their Pinot Noir but, for those who need more proof in their beverages, the selection of top-drawer spirits and creative cocktails is just fine, too. Improve on the ordinary bread"
Dined on 10/3/2014
We were traveling into the
Lexington area and found this gem on Open Table. Beatiful scenery overlooking vineyard and farms. Nice local Petite Syrah and local made cheese. Food and ambiance were excellent! Wonderful place with a wonderful waitress."
Dined on 9/26/2014
Always one of favorites in town!!!
Always perfect and spot on!!! It was a great 2 year anniversary!!!"
Dined on 9/20/2014
Food is still very good, however
the enclosed patio leaves something to be desired. With all metal tables and chairs and the high ceiling, the space is cold and very loud. I would not eat out there again."
Dined on 9/20/2014
Our third time at JF. The food was
excellent, as in the past, but this time the wines did not inspire us to buy a case as we usually do. The menu had been changed in the past week, and I was disappointed not to see some of my favorites from previous trips, but my filet was perfectly cooked and delicious, and my husband raved about the grilled pork loin. The web site mentions a business casual "dress code" but the servers were in shorts and tennis shoes, which really detracted from the specialness of the atmosphere we had experienced previously."
Dined on 9/16/2014
Jean Farris was the perfect spot
for a first date. We went out on a Sunday night so it was not crowded at all. Our server Evan did a fantastic job, he was attentive but not at the table every 5 minutes. The food was excellent, we had the pork loin and the sea scallops, highly recommend both!! Jean Farris was the perfect stage for a wonderful night!! We will be back!!"
Dined on 9/14/2014
Excellent location, service, food,
and wine. Service outstandingly friendly. Food well prepared and enjoyable. Very enjoyable experience. Wonderful wine selections. Will definitely return. Outdoor dining was lovely."
Dined on 9/9/2014
This was the first time we had
visited Jean Farris, which was highly recommended; and we were not disappointed. The food was excellent - including flavor, presentation and portion sizes. Our waiter was very knowledgeable and friendly - but did not hover. The ambiance was very nice. We ate inside, but agreed that we would definitely try the outside seating on a future visit."
Dined on 9/7/2014
I was passing through Lexington on
the Labour day weekend, and this was the highest rated restaurant which I could reserve a table. It turns out, the restaurant was only 25% full. Because of that the noise level was moderate. I had the evening's specials. The daily soup was good. The main dish was a strip steak, cooked perfectly. I also tasted their flight of 4 reserve red wines. It was only OK, I would think they are in the $10/btl range in both price and quality. If they sell the wine for more than that, it's not worth it. If you know your wines, it would be better to select a bottle from their modest wine list. All in all, I think the meal was worth the drive and the money, but I will not be buying their wine for my wine cellar."
Dined on 8/31/2014
I surprised my wife with a getaway
trip to Lexington and wanted a unique destination for dinner. The drive out was beautiful. Once at the bistro we were seated promptly and our waiter was there for our drink order. The menu had good selections and we tried a cheese course to start which was wonderful and very well presented. My wife ordered the lamb chops and I the special sirloin strip. Both entres were cooked perfectly and presented beautifully. We sampled several of the wineries white wines and did not find one we liked. However the Cabernet Franc they make was excellent and we ordered a second bottle and took it home with us. Our waiter's knowledge of the food and wine they served was very good. Overall a great find!!!"
Dined on 8/31/2014
Took my parents here for brunch to
celebrate their 35th wedding anniversary and they loved it! Wine flights had a great selection and the brunch was outstanding."
Dined on 8/31/2014
Excellent food and service. Only
negative is the sound level on the enclosed patio. Very difficult to hear."
Dined on 8/30/2014
Jean Farris is an excellent out of
town eatery that always meets my expectations in food, wine and great service."
Dined on 8/29/2014
from "soup to nuts" everything was
wonderful. An enjoyable dining experience. Will return. We enjoyed the local wines."
Dined on 8/29/2014
We dined on the outdoor patio on a
warm summers evening at sunset. It was our anniversary and the whole experience was delightful. The setting was unbelievably lovely. The service was great and the food was excellent if a bit pricey. I was not as impressed with the interior seating and the problem is you can not reserve a table on the outdoor patio - it's on a first come first serve basis. I think if we had been seated inside it would have been a much less satisfactory experience."
Dined on 8/28/2014
Great place for a nice dinner,
brunch , or lunch. Nice to be able to escape downtown and have this place to dine. Great bar, food, and service."
Dined on 8/24/2014
We sat on the porch at one of the
end tables, so the view wasn't the greatest, but other than that, it was wonderful!"
Dined on 8/24/2014
Great Food, Great Wine, Great
Servie......one of the gems of Lexington that just got even better with the new editions."
Dined on 8/23/2014
We went for a special occasion,
and had spectacular service! The food was superb and plenty of options for wine. Our table for two was within 15 inches of another table for two; one person from that party, talked very loudly nonstop. We were finishing dessert when they had appetizer, so it wasn't our whole meal. It's just a personal preference, to sit within earshot of loud talkers. We will return, and bring friends-maybe ask for patio seating."
Dined on 8/23/2014
we have visited your restaurant
many times and the service and the food has always been excellent. we enjoy the view of the countryside and since we live in clark county in the country it is very convenient for us to enjoy your winery."
Dined on 8/22/2014
Sunday brunch was a treat, would
highly recommend to anyone."
Dined on 8/17/2014
Seated in an outdoor glass
enclosed patio which was a bit uncomfortable on a warm, humid evening. I would suggest screens to offer outdoor air or add air conditioning. Service was extremely slow and our food was over cooked. Waters were served tepid without ice in the glasses. Appetizers were embarrassingly skimpy. Our drinks sat empty for at least 20 minutes and when we asked for refills it took another 20 minutes to receive them. I really wanted to like this place and kept hoping it would get better but it just didn't happen. $130+ for two (without dessert and not including tip) was disappointing. On a positive note, the wine was good."

Have always loved Jean Ferris.
Recently tried their brunch for the first time with a group of girlfriends. We sat on the patio and had a wonderful time. Food was delicious!"
Dined on 8/3/2014
Once again an exceptional dinner
and experience! Have eaten at Jean Farris many times over the years and have never had a bad experience!"
Dined on 8/2/2014
Love the fact that you now have a
full service bar and are serving Sat. & Sun. brunch again!"
Dined on 8/1/2014
My husband and I love this place!
You can sit back with a group of friends on comfy patio furniture and sip wine and enjoy...you can get a table and have course after course while over looking rolling hills and vineyards. It's all great!"
Dined on 7/25/2014
Third time to this restaurant and
always enjoy it. Everything was fine but not outstanding. Service was a little weak for an upscale dining place. I am from out of state so will return when back in this area."
Dined on 7/19/2014
Now even better with a full bar
and extended wine list, and back to serving brunch (yay!), I didn't know I could love Jean Farris even more. The food is very good, the view and ambiance are unmatched in Lexington, and the professional, warm staff wrap the whole thing up with a bow. Can't get enough of JF!"
Dined on 7/13/2014
Go for the food, not the wine.
Next time I go, I will definitely opt for one of their delicious-looking cocktails."

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Young Kansans seeking driver's education permits will find the task much easier starting April 1 when the Department of Revenue switches to an online application portal.
Each year the department handles about 50,000 driver's ed applications, which can take several weeks -- longer if there is a medical or vision issue -- to process. That has meant students who sign up for a driving class at the last minute or don't get around to sending in their application might not have the necessary permit to participate in the driving portion of the class.
With the new format, an instructor can fill out an online form and immediately print out the permit if there are no issues that require additional review.

The sound of rambunctious young voices could be heard in the background as veteran Great Bend child care provider Carolyn Humburg tried to speak. She was almost as giddy as her youthful charges.
The small Kansas community of Harveyville was devastated by an F-2 tornado which damaged more than 40 percent of the community on Tuesday, Feb. 28, killing one and injuring 13 others. In the aftermath of the storm, more than 1,600 volunteers have rallied to help the citizens clean up debris.
WASHINGTON, D.C.- Rural Hoisington farmer Dean Stoskopf had the opportunity to provide input to federal lawmakers on what the 2012 Farm Bill should look like. He testified earlier this week before the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry on the hotly debated legislation.
The probe continues into an alleged embezzlement from the Great Bend Credit Union of America branch, however Kansas Bureau of Investigation officials declined to comment further the case.
Before a packed Highland Hotel banquet hall Friday afternoon, Great Bend High School recognized will be two of its own, one who has touched the lives of students and one who has served presidents.
With a high-pitched whine and roar, the gleaming 737-200 touched down at Great Bend Municipal Airport at about noon Thursday.
The Tuesday filing for bankruptcy protection by Great Bend-based Fuller Brush and its Leicester, NY-based parent company CPAC should have little impact on the day-to-day operation at Fuller's Great Bend headquarters, a local Fuller official said Thursday.
The Great Bend Municipal Airport is making preparations for a rather large guest Wednesday afternoon.
A radio tower atop St. Rose Ambulatory and Surgery Center will be the new home of a repeater for the Unified School District 428's in-district radios, the School Board decided Tuesday.
The Kansas City, Mo.-based Sutherland Lumber Company has acquired property in Great Bend, a company official confirmed Thursday morning. However, the official couldn't elaborate on where this property was or on the company's plans in Great Bend.
A light mist fell on a fog-shrouded Brit Spaugh Zoo Wednesday morning as a deftly operated mini-excavator nibbled away at chucks of broken ice and concrete at the park.
The arrest warrant has been dropped against the Great Bend man originally sought by Great Bend authorities for allegedly beating and cutting of his ex-fiance a week ago and who turned himself to the Gardner police Thursday, Great Bend Police Chief Dean Akings said Friday.
They made it.
PAWNEE ROCK – Digging through piles of dusty boxes and brittle, yellowed documents found in the old Pawnee Rock city office yielded a unique treasure for the residents of this small western Barton County community.
TOPEKA – The marketing of the Wetlands and Wildlife Scenic Byway received a boost, thanks to a grant from the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism.
The Barton County Appraiser's Office is starting the 2015 final review process. This is a process where appraisals for the Jan. 1, 2015 values are set, said County Appraiser Barb Estes.
MANHATTAN – Kansans aren't talkin' turkey like they used to.
There is Thanksgiving to give thanks.
There were a lot of factors to weigh when it came to the tons of sand Barton County uses for road maintenance, the decision to purchase a new dredge or the continued buying of sand from a private vendor.
We have a lot of blessings to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. There are gas prices that are among the lowest in the country and an economy that is showing signs of recovery.
For years now, Barton County has benefited from state dollars that have helped keep the county's infrastructure in tip-top shape. A big part of that success can be attributed to County Engineer Clark Rusco, County Administrator Richard Boeckman said Monday morning.
The possibility that the State of Kansas could rob highway project funds to solve the state's fiscal crisis has come up at recent Barton County Commission meetings. Local officials are worried about work that is promised to the area but that now may be delayed if not cancelled.
Encouraged by the lowest gas prices in recent memory and a brighter economic outlook, the number of those going over the river and through the woods this Thanksgiving weekend will be the highest in several years.
It is a sign of the times.
Great Bend motorists and bicycle enthusiasts will begin to notice some new traffic signs and markings around Great Bend. The installation of bicycle awareness signs started Friday afternoon and the painting of sharrows started Tuesday, all of which should be done by today.
It's been a busy year at the historic Great Bend Drag Strip said Hank Denning, president of the Sunflower Rod and Custom Association. He gave his annual report on the activities at the track during the City Council meeting Monday night.
Barton County commissioners who attended the Kansas Association of Counties annual meeting in Wichita last week came away with two overall impressions. First, the State of Kansas is in dismal financial straits, and second, Barton County is in good shape compared to most of its 105 peers counties.
On Friday, Great Bend Street Department personnel began installing bicycle awareness signs along what will become the city's first bike route. It follows 19th Street west to McKinley and McKinley south to the Sports Complex.

Maybe AudioGO could, the way they did the first two (or was it three) Tom Baker box sets.
True, although I've read mixed reviews about them (and I believe it's three box sets).

No more niche than the Unbound Doctors, and while they may not have sold well (like
The Holy Terror
), several of them are highly regarded (I've only listened to the David Warner audios, but I've heard that at least the Geoffrey Bayldon audios are also very good). Hell, would it be all that more niche than doing an ongoing series of The Eighth Doctor considering how poorly TV Movie was received (except Paul McGann's performance)?

WWE Blocks Zack Ryder's YouTube Show?, Ryder Comments on Twitter
by Staff - October 28, 2011
- WWE Superstar Zack Ryder says that WWE has blocked episode #37 of his "Z! True Long Island Story" online show from being uploaded to YouTube. Ryder wrote the following on Twitter today:
"WWE has blocked this week's Episode of Z! True Long Island Story…grrrrrreat
Kind of shocked WWE blocked Episode 37 of Z! TLIS…I figured they liked all of the money they've been getting by putting ads on my videos
RE-editing/RE-uploading Episode 37…hopefully it doesn't get blocked this time"
Ryder's YouTube account appears to be his own and nothing owned by WWE. It's likely that the video got blocked due to some RAW footage or SmackDown footage that was in the video. It's also possible that nobody at WWE actually stopped the video but that it was a YouTube filter that activated the block.

Lovely pix everyone. Really enjoying these landscapes. I have loads on a disc from old computer so I'll have to have a look for them
Nikki - I had a photo of an inversion but it's on that disc. Ben Lui from the top of Bheinn Dorain - the cloud at the top just cleared as we got there. Sheer chance and really beautiful.
Found this - can't remember where it is though Point and shoot from half way up somewhere!
Forgot to do white rabbits - but hey - I'm not superstitious anyway. I keep my rabbit's foot and lucky white heather tucked safely away. And I moved the ladder so I don't have to walk under it when I go to the car.
Woody - you have to go and see someone about your 'weather/season' denial...
It's a big job Lyn- hope you've been eating your porridge and spinach!
Very satisfying when you get it all completed though. Did you have a chipper for the conifers? It would have been some good recycling! We did that with a huge fir tree at last house which was in a seriously bad place.
I'm seriously considering ripping out the rhododendron at the front door which was here when I moved in. I'd like some gold/yellow planting at the front and it just doesn't fit. It's very mature though and the new growth is coppery so I'm not sure. Got enough to do anyway!
Grockle- that's a good word. What does it mean - nosy parkers?
What age are you Corny? We're all very young here really
Only 27 myself...or am I 28 now since I've just had a birthday ..
I used to cry at Lassie...
Diane - it's mental isn't it!
James - peat is reckoned to be the best growing medium, but because of the issues surrounding it's use, the peat free stuff is now the most widely used. We had a thread on here earlier this year though, and many people had issues with the quality of most of the peat free stuff available.
Late this morning. That's what I get for staying awake till daughter was in from her party
I'll no doubt fall asleep at about 8 tonight!
Supposed to be a decent day here so might get something done outside. Yesterday was horrendous in the afternoon.
will try and catch up on all the chat on here now
I've always left loo rolls too but after the way the purchaser behaved when seeling my last house I wish I'd taken an awful lot more than I did!
Someone told me they bought a h ouse which had a new fence round it and it really suited them because they had a new dog..... when they moved in - guess what the previous owners had taken....
Welshonion- your son should have pursued that one - a loft ladder's surely a fixture!
Lovely weather we had here earlier- lightning, torrential rain and hail. Great!
Glad I have my heating working - hope you get yours sorted BL.
Punkdoc- I love Ligularias too. I bought Britt Marie Crawford last year and although it didn't do much then, it flowered like mad this year and was covered in bees. The foliage is terrific but , yes the slugs and snails love it. I've got it into it's new raised bed and put plenty of grit round it to keep them away.
Daisy at my last house we had a pond with four big Golden Orfe in it which had been there for a long time and one was always on the edge of the group. We used to feel sorry for him too!

Anonymous Screenings on National Alcohol Screening Day
Dear Annie: I want to share a personal story that I decided to be very public about: I'm a recovering alcoholic. The irony of my situation is that I made a successful career out of writing about using alcohol to cope with the stresses of parenthood in books and in my Web column.
Then one morning I woke up with the hangover from hell (I actually ended up in the emergency room), and that was literally the turning point: I got the message loud and clear that my life was a mess, and alcohol was making it that way. I remember when I "'fessed up" to the readers of my blog, "Baby on Bored." I was terrified that they'd think I was this enormous hypocrite. Instead, I got countless responses from women thanking me and recounting their own stories about their secret drinking.
April 5, 2012, is National Alcohol Screening Day(r) (NASD). Thousands of colleges, community-based organizations and military installations participate in NASD. One element of the day that people should know about is the free and anonymous screenings available online. The screenings help individuals assess whether they should visit a clinician or take a similar course of action to get a handle on their drinking. The screenings can be accessed anytime at howdoyouscore.org.
Alcohol is a problem for more people than one might think — including the "cocktail moms" I've written about. It's a health issue that's treatable, but it needs to be brought out into the open. National Alcohol Screening Day plays a big part in doing this. Sincerely — Stefanie Wilder-Taylor
Dear Stefanie Wilder-Taylor: Thank you for sharing your story and underscoring the importance of screening for alcoholism.

Dear Annie: My daughter is getting married this summer, and my husband and I are upset about the informality of the groomsmen's attire.
This is going to be a formal church wedding, and I have spent a lot of money on my daughter's dress. My husband feels this shows a lack of respect for my daughter. What is the best way to handle this without issuing an ultimatum? — Bride's Parents
Dear Parents: If you are not footing the bill, you don't have much say. Not to mention, this could be a way for the groomsmen to save money. If you are paying for everything, you should ask your daughter how she feels about it, and let her talk to her fiance. Otherwise, please stay out of it. What the groomsmen wear is of little importance to the rest of the day, and once they start dancing, the jackets and ties come off anyway. Creating ill-will before the wedding, however, will last a very long time.
Dear Annie: I didn't care for your response to "Senior Citizen Who Respects Women." You said: "Many readers pointed out that these women may not wish to have sex outside of marriage, a perfectly respectable position. If that's the case, however, they should tell him so he understands the ground rules and doesn't keep badgering them."
Why should the women have to explain themselves? Even if everyone else is having premarital sex, a lady doesn't have to give reasons for being inaccessible. And it's insulting to assume she would otherwise crawl in the sack. — Lois
Dear Lois: As a matter of etiquette, no woman is required to explain a refusal to become intimate. As a practical matter, however, if you want to keep dating a man who keeps asking about sex, it helps to explain your position.
