A word from Stonehome Wine Bar & Restaurant
Stonehome Wine Bar's menu is Seasonal American with focus on local produce, natural meats and fish from sustainable sources. The award winning wine list has 200 selections with 30 offered by the glass and in tasting flights. Spirits are also served. "The best (wine bars) like Stonehome Wine Bar, give the culinary as much attention as the oenological…. Chef Gibson is certainly unafraid to offer hearty fare with flavors that challenge-and amplify- those of the wine." Andrea Thompson – tables for Two – New Yorker.Continued

- EXCELLENT, AS USUALBIRDMAN2VIPDined on 9/17/2014STONEHOME, WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE OF THE BROOKLYN ACADEMY, IS A WINEBAR THAT OFFERS AN EXQUISITE DINNER MENU THAT MAY BE LIMITED IN THE NUMBER OF ENTREES OFFERED BUT IS FIRST RATE IN THE NUMBER OF ORGANIC AND NATURAL FRUITS AND VEGETABLES AS WELL AS POULTRY AND MEATS THAT COME FROM FARMS WITH NAMES THAT ARE FAMILIAR TO THOSE WHO CARE ABOUT SOURCES. PREPARATION IS EXCELLENT AND SERVICE IS GENERALLY ON THE INFORMAL SIDE BUT COMPETENT AND ATTENTIVE, AT LEAST EARLY IN THE EVENING.Special Features:
- Lovely eveningsallyDined on 9/14/2014My sister, while on business trips, had been eyeing this place for years, so we stopped in for just a glass of wine one night and found the environment pleasing enough to return the next night for dinner. The weather was nice so we sat outside in their pleasant garden/patio section. The interior was also appealing except for the music which I did not think really went with the general "mood" - more on the electronic side…not quite right for the more "mellow"ambiance. The menu is somewhat limited as it is a place that focuses more on wine, but what we ordered (the three main entrées) were all superb. Since we waited a tad too long for our meal (the chicken takes awhile), the waiter generously gave us free deserts which were also excellent.Special Features:
- Amazing!OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/29/2014I recently dined at the Stonehome Wine Bar & Restaurant for the first time to celebrate a birthday. The ambiance was so inviting and relaxing. We sat outside and enjoyed every minute of it. The food coupled with the wine was superb. Everything we ate was incredibly tasty and fresh. I would absolutely recommend this establishment to anyone for a great dining experience. I will definitely go there again!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Cozy EleganthungryhippoDined on 8/4/2014The cheeses and charcuterie were fantastic. The pate was good, but meaty rather than a smoother texture. We ordered the Maine crab pasta and pork loin, both excellent. Loved the subtle mint on the pasta and the pork had a wonderful sear on it while remaining moist.Special Features:
- LizzieDined on 6/28/2014This restaurant is among the very few "special places" near BAM. Menu is intriguing.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good Food, Service Needs HelpAnonymousVIPDined on 6/27/2014Been here a few times and had great food and good service, however this past Friday was very uneven. The food was great, however the bartender barely looked in my groups' direction while we waited at the bar to get seated. The wait person looked indifferent as if she didn't want to be there or serve us (not sure which one it was). Had reservations but did not get seated until half an hour later. The maitre'd was trying his best to be accommodating, however I think the restaurant itself needs better management.Special Features:
- nice spotnightoutDined on 6/24/2014small but nice food menu suburb service was perfect for usSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delightful SurpriseHodgesVIPDined on 6/21/2014One of the best experiences we had on recent trip to NY--tucked into Ft. Greene area of Brooklyn and selected for proximity to concert venue. Concert was cancelled but we kept our reservation--good food, really friendly and engaging staff and a wine list that actually has affordable selections. We especially enjoyed the hush puppies and chatting with the staff. We dined in Manhattan at far more expensive places that didn't measure up to the experience Stonehome created for us. If I lived there I'd be there all the time! Try it.Special Features:
- Neighborhood wine spotOpenTable Diner Since 2012VIPDined on 6/20/2014Great neighborhood nook with an option for a garden seat. I had the specials of the day, smoked fish soup and kale salad. Both hit the spot perfectly.Special Features:
- Lovely meal on outdoor patioOpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 6/7/2014Stonehome has great food and wine with a somewhat limited menu. It was a beautiful sitting on the outdoor patio in the back. Enjoy!
- Reliably excellent at StonehomejasonVIPDined on 6/6/2014As neighborhood regulars, we enjoy our frequent visits to Stonehome: fine food and drink, pleasant and efficient service, and in warm weather, a very pleasant outdoor space.Special Features:
- pre concert dinnerbabywongDined on 5/31/2014Cute restaurant, walking distance to BAM, food was good, service was excellent. There's a small outdoor space in the back.
- NancyVIPDined on 5/30/2014First time to this restaurant and it is a winner. Really interesting menu, excellent food and great service. The garden dining is particularly nice….green and quiet.Special Features:
- crichDined on 5/28/2014Impressive place with excellent service. We wanted a good restaurant near to BAM and this fit the bill 100%.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Neighborhood TreasureReadytodineDined on 5/24/2014This is our favorite place to dine before a BAM event. The chef is wonderful and everything we have ever tried on our numerous visits has been interesting and delicious.Special Features:
- The following 229 reviews are from the Stonehome Wine Bar & Restaurant reviews archive.
- Pre-theatertdckDined on 5/17/2014Pleasant service. Excellent food. Nice ambience. Followed up our phone call asking a question. Made certain we were out in time for our show.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Find - A Block from BAMKatherineVIPDined on 4/23/2014We really liked everything about Stone Home, and we will definitely go back. The food is inspired and innovative--we had the ceviche. which is served with guacamole; the charcuterie plate with Tasso ham; a spicy al dente pasta with seafood; even the "simple" green salad is excellent. The wine list is phenomenal--it is a wine bar after all--and we chose a delectable pinot noir from Oregon. The ambience is casual and relaxed, tables are a little too close together for me, but it's a small room. All in all, it's a great neighborhood spot, and just up the street from BAM. Service was friendly and good, although our server could have been more attentive in terms of pouring wine and bottled water.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food behind a funky exteriorOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 3/22/2014When I first saw the doorway i thought I'd made a mistake but inside is the decor is warm, sleek and welcoming. A limited but excellent menu. Loved the array of small plates. Definately a place to go when you're at BAMSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Hot SpotBrooklynDinerVIPDined on 3/15/2014Stonhome was packed when I walked in -- the tables, the bar. The atmosphere was electric. Welcome warm. And then the food -- perfectly prerared and plated. Had the Harissa marinated octopus served over warm lentils. It was so good! Then came the loin of venison. It was perfectly cooked -- seared and a beautiful rare pink! So delicious and tender with a perfectly matched chocolate sauce. The inexpensive house wine blend, also chocolatey, was a perfect complement. The service was warm and just right. All in a all, a perfect pre-theater dinner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Don't waste your timeBKsnaDined on 3/14/2014When you hear wine-bar you expect some degree of service with knowledge of wine pairings to go along with some quality food. Lets just say we got neither. The service was atrocious, the food mediocre at best and the wine nothing to write home about. Best part about this meal was when it ended. Please just take my money and kick me in the shin next time.Special Features:
- Great find near BAMOpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 3/14/2014Stonehome Wine Bar was incredible. The intimate setting makes for a special evening. The limited menu offers only 4 or 5 starters and entrees but each one is delicious. We loved every dish and the wait staff was attentive. Can't wait to return.
- If you going to BAMplsathomeDined on 3/13/2014This is a great place to be, right by an exit from the Fulton St G station. Award-winning as a wine bar, it has a small but varying, creative, and consistently delicious selection of hot dishes, large and small -- and also moderately priced artisanal cheeesplates and charcuterie. Allow 90 minutes or so; it's a10-minute walk to BAM sites. Considerate of and good for those of us who must eat gluten free.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wine-wonderful welcomePetesipDined on 2/26/2014It says "wine bar" for a reason! The staff is super-knowledgeable, knows how to find you a great wine (or several). We've been to Stonehome several times; meals were always excellent. The number of dishes offered, however, is relatively small, so if you visit often you will soon know the entire menu (not a terrible fate!), although it does change seasonally. For wine, our server recommended a Rhone red (it was a cold night), Domaine Monvac "Arabesque," which all four of us agreed was superb. As the place fills up, the noise expands exponentially. Try waiting until the pre-theater crowd disperses.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A LAPSEBIRDMAN2VIPDined on 2/22/2014WE ARE LONG TIMERS; THIS IS OUR SPOT TO GO DURING THE BAM SEASON. MENU AND PREPARATION ALWAYS EXCELLENT. SOME VARIATION IN SERVICE BUT USUALLY MORE THAN SATISFACTORY. THIS TIME, THOUGH, SOME SORT OF A SLIP-UP IN THE KITCHEN APPARENTLY, COMBINED WITH A DISTRACTED SERVER WHO FORGOT ABOUT US, AND THE ENTREE DIDN'T COME AND IT DIDN'T COME, SHE RESPONDED QUICKLY ENOUGH TO A REMINDER, BUT THE MEAL WAS NO LONGER RELAXED AND ENDED BEING A CLOCK WATCHER. NOT AT ALL USUAL FOR THE STONEHOME, BUT THEY CAN'T TAKE ANY OF US, NEWBIES OR LONG TIMERS, FOR GRANTED.Special Features:
- InconsistentbklyndinerVIPDined on 2/21/2014We've eaten at Stonehome many times. The food is generally enjoyable but never memorable. We started with a salad which was ok, but uninspired. I ordered the duck breast, which was again, ok but not great (especially compared to the duck breast eaten earlier in the week at The Grocery!) My husband ordered the octopus and the risotto, which actually were both more successfull than the duck. The grilled octopus was delicious. I think the food at Stonehome is basically inconsistent. But it is still one of the more appealing restaurants in the area (and near BAM) so we will continue to dine there.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The best in a long timeMariposaDined on 2/15/2014Top chef experience phenomenal ...food was excellent, ambience , service and best of all clean .Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Fort Greene GemOpenTable Diner Since 2002VIPDined on 2/14/2014Welcoming, this would be a terrific wine bar but since its food is much better and broader than the typical wine bar, I'd call this a fine restaurant with an exceptional wine list. So happy to have found it.Special Features:
- Not good for after TheaterDinthe2Dined on 2/11/2014Although, they are quite close to BAM, they have no interest in accommodating the after theater crowd. We made a reservation for 10:45 pm, arrived at 10:50 and were told that the kitchen was closed. They were quite rude. We went to Diner in Williamsburg which was excellent and is open for a later dinner.
- A neighborhood place nearRodneyVIPDined on 2/11/2014A neighborhood place near BAM. Limited but adequate menu. It is a wine bar so very good and interesting wine selections. Nice comfortable feel. Tables fairly close so moderate noise but you can hear yourself!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OUTSTANDING, AS USUALBIRDMAN2VIPDined on 2/7/2014INTERESTING MENU, FIRST RATE PRESENTATION, ACOMMODATING SERVICE, FINE WINE LIST (AFTER ALL, IT IS A WINEBAR).. ALL AS USUAL.Special Features:
- wonderful eveningSteveDined on 2/1/2014First time at this great little wine bar. Interesting list of diverse wines complimented with a smallish but very well prepared food menu. Could use just a few more offerings and would love to see some local wines to match the locally sourced ingredients. Impeccable, friendly service. Overall a terrific place.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Neighborhood GemReadytodineDined on 1/27/2014We discovered this restaurant/wine bar way too late as for years we have been looking for interesting places to dine before an event at BAM. Stonehome is perfect. The food is always fabulous, they have a varied and interesting selection of wines and the service and setting are so warm and comfortable. This will definitely be our pre-BAM go-to.Special Features:
- Good Food and AmbienceOpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 1/18/2014I went for Dinner before a movie and ended up missing the movie because the service was very slow. We were completely done with apps and had empty wine glasses before having to ask for our server to put in entrees. Made a reservation for 8:15 and was seated right away, so thought is would have been plenty of time to make a 9:40 movie a two block away at BAM, but the theater was too crowded once we got there. Great food though and I would definitely return, but will give myself plenty of extra time on my next visit.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing!!!xuyewklongxl2Dined on 1/16/2014The wine selections were wonderful. We did a sparkling wine flight and a white wine flight. Bothe were very tasty. The food was was amazing too! We git an app and 3 entrees and everything was perfectly cooked, flavorful, and looked equally delicious as it tasted!Special Features:
- hospitableOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 1/11/2014Excellent crew everyone is friendly and helpful always with a smile on their faces. When you eat or go there for a drink the place puts a smile on your face as well. Great experience loved it.Special Features:
- was a changeanightoutDined on 12/27/2013if you are looking to have a cold beer and steak or chicken this is not the place for you and not for kids. Over all it was a nice night out just check the food list before going.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A great findMonaDined on 12/21/2013I searched on Google maps for restaurants near BAM and this was one of the few that came up. Their menu looked interesting and they had availability, so I made a reservation. The host seated us and did not balk when we wanted to move, Our server was lovely. The wine list was great and my friend and I each had "flights" of reds, hers from Italy, mine from France. All good. The food was delicious and they did not hurry us out. We lingered for 2 hours enjoying the hip but cozy atmosphere. Highly recommended and a brief walk to BAM and BAM Harvey.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Convenient to BAM38SpecialVIPDined on 12/18/2013Nice pre-show option near LIRR and BAM. Very good hand made pasta. Reasonably prices. Will return without a doubt.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very enjoyableCotymomVIPDined on 12/17/2013A suggestion from Bam. Never would have found it on our own. We all enjoyed everything Delish cheeseSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perfect for late Meal / Wine-CheeseCZMaestroDined on 12/15/2013Was looking for an ideal spot near BAM for a post-show, romantic wine & cheese spot with my lover. It was a wonderful evening, and we discovered their entrées were decadent as well. I suggest the flight of French Red (much more generous portions than most wine bars) and one of each of the cheeses. The ravioli plate was a wonderful dish as well. Compliments to the whole design of the place, including the menu.Special Features:

Shoes for women that is on the goFriday, March 25th, 2011
In most of the countries throughout the world local shoe makers are making a niche in the multi-million shoe making industry due to results of their hard work and dedication to there craft.

What are you doing?Monday, March 21st, 2011
The problem we have sometimes is that we intend to grumble and not even be an honest of our true feelings towards someone. I admit that I'm like that sometimes, but I realized if I try to be open I make things so fast, I will understand why they are acting that way. An open communication is a helping method for us to see the whole story than complicating by our own judgements and assumptions.
I have here a friend who always reminds us of not surfing FB during lunch. I'm sure she didn't know that our vice-president was the one who informed these people to use FB during our break time. I really don't know the real story behind this, but the actions of these people I guess were based of what they have heard. I was advised not to tell the HR, but I guess there is a misunderstanding between the two parties and that is why they prefer to throw garbage to each other instead. This is not really healthy.
Card gifts for allThursday, March 17th, 2011
In many department stores and malls anywhere in the world, marketing strategies are being applied by store management to entice customers to patronize their stores and the products the sell. A lot of marketing gimmicks and advertisements are being done by companies such as providing reward cards to their valued clients. In some cases malls and superstores provides a point system marketing style that provides customers the chance to avail products on discounted prices or for free. The competition has really tightened among superstores and mall that it provides high quality products to its customers with reduced prices.
Agricultural coverageTuesday, March 15th, 2011
In the wake of a major climate change that is being experienced throughout the globe one sector of the economy is greatly affected. The agricultural sector which provides an average of 20% employment among major economies throughout every continent is being challenged by climate change. In the recent spike increases of damages caused by flooding and storms farmers turn to insurance companies to help them provide security. In the internet farmers insurance review is available for everybody to research on and provide them with enough knowledge of certain insurance plan coverage. It is better to be ready always than end up with nothing at all during times of crisis.
Cheap and reliable uniformsThursday, March 10th, 2011
The medical profession has greatly increased its consumption of materials in all aspects. Since the increase of the population of mankind it has required to train more and more medical practitioners to be able to help society cope up with disease problems. In the clothing industry a lot of medical uniforms are manufactured everyday to meet the demands of medical staffs. In some cases companies are offering discount scrubs to nurses and other medical staff in order for them to increase there sales. A lot of changes have been connected to the increase of the demand for medical practitioners and this is a sign the research is able to provide mankind to cure any disease.
Not totally all rightTuesday, March 8th, 2011
My uneasy feeling now is I guess I was not able to eat on time yesterday. Our plantation visit was very appalling since I thought it would be a nice conversation during the investigation. The mixed product that was a finding last week from our customer immediately alarmed us to visit the plantation ASAP. They found out that the plantation failed to continue what they agreed before, which is to have an ice breaker during sleepy hours. Our head recognized this as possible reason why it happened. Of course, people's energy deteriorates during working hours; so as to stop this, our company copied an activity from malls that their employees will dance for one minute. When I saw this, it is really an energy booster indeed. I saw them as if they are playing like children. I also realized laughter is also the best medicine to stop their sleepiness. However, the supervisors on that particular plantation fail to recognize this. They are very harsh as they suspend the packer right away. Well, business is business and I understand that, but on the other hand we must also be sensitive with regard to our employee's need because we are also humans.
Anyway, next time I'll bring my snack so I'll not be hungry again whenever we have to wait another argument that should be resolved immediately.
Job securityThursday, March 3rd, 2011
A lot of companies throughout the business world are considering outsourcing on hiring their employees. For these companies they see outsourcing as a chance to reduce cost and long term maintenance of every employee. Although there are perceived advantages in employing contractual employees there is also a list of disadvantages a certain company will encounter once they hire contractual employees. Among these are efficiency and continuity of work which will create good performance outputs. A certain employee will always see the comparison between term vs permanent workers. In more instances a worker is more motivated to work if they are hired as a regular worker. In the end business owners will always make a choice if whether the cost savings on hiring contractual workers will cover up for the loss of potential production in there business.
High value jewelleryThursday, March 3rd, 2011
Majority of young and old women love to wear jewelries as part of their fashion accessories. As the fashion trends constantly changes in our society nowadays a lot of women are very conscious on the quality, brand and manufacturers of their jewelries. In some cases prospected buyers would like to monopolize the source of jewelries such as tanzanite rings. These high quality jewelries are manufactured using the best and standardize methods that is assured to last for a life time. A lot of women value good jewelery and they will always appreciate what is a gift that is valuable and fashionable as well.

You know there's drama brewing when your child comes to you in tears or the conversation begins with "Mom … please don't get mad!" There are those who would argue that students will learn what to do if we just step back and let them sink or swim. But, students with ADHD or Asperger's have Executive Functioning deficits, and that answer is not the solution.
Depending on the circumstances, there are instances where our students can't swim on their own and we need to step in and take control of the situation. There are other instances where they will need to be explicitly taught how to swim, and then supported in their efforts until they are able to swim on their own.
How do you know when to step in and when to step back? In order to answer this question, you must first answer a couple of questions.
1. What are the circumstances?
2. Under these circumstances, given these set of facts, is this a situation that my child is capable of resolving if he or she is taught how to do so?
If the circumstances are such that it's unlikely that your child will be able to resolve the situation on their own regardless of how much you're able to teach them, then it's time to step in and take over.
Let me take you through a few examples to illustrate when it's appropriate for you to take over and resolve the situation. I'll begin with an example where the solution is more obvious and then move on to one where it's not so clear cut.
EXAMPLE ONE When my youngest daughter recently called from college to say she was sick, we had no alternative but to take control.
The situation was serious. I could tell that just from the sound of her cough and the way she was breathing.
There was nothing that I could teach her at that point that would change the situation. She had already tried to resolve the matter on her own, and she had run out of options. She'd been to the university health services several days before, but their treatment wasn't working and they were unable to give her the treatment she needed. Moreover, she doesn't have a car on campus, and she just transferred there so she didn't have someone who could drive her to another doctor in the area.
Leaving her on her own wasn't a viable alternative. Her next stop was the emergency room and we weren't willing to let it go that far.
EXAMPLE TWO When my son called to tell us that his cell phone went through the wash with his laundry and that he needed a new phone, the circumstances were such that we had no alternative but to step in.
The situation was serious and leaving him on his own wasn't a viable alternative. Even though he was at fault by leaving his cell phone in the pocket of his pants and then washing the pants without first thoroughly checking his pockets, he needed a cell phone. There might be some who would question whether a cell phone is a necessity, but in this instance, it was. Our son has been diagnosed with High Functioning Autism. He is socially challenged, easily taken advantage of and has been bullied throughout his life. He lives in an apartment almost 200 miles from home, and he uses public transportation without supervision in order to take classes at a local community college. Under these circumstances, given these set of facts, leaving him without a means to readily contact someone in the event of an emergency was not a position we were willing to put him in regardless of the role he played in getting himself into this situation.
Although there was the opportunity for a teachable moment, regardless of how much I taught him, he was unable to resolve the situation on his own. I don't mean to suggest that you should pass up a "teachable moment" when the opportunity arises, or fail to impose consequences, where appropriate. There was certainly much that I could and did teach my son in this situation. Moreover, we imposed consequences – he had to pay for the new phone. But, that didn't negate the role that I needed to assume in this instance. There was no way that my son could resolve the situation on his own, without my help. The contract on his phone is under my name, and he was not due for an upgrade to a new phone. Moreover, he attends school in a remote area. There were no stores nearby that sold "go phones" that would have served as a temporary fix until he was entitled to an upgrade.
If you're confused as to how to implement these suggestions, or if you feel your child would be resistant to engage with you in the process, you could probably benefit from some assistance. CLICK HERE to contact me for a complimentary consultation.

Welcome to Mac Parrot Head Corner!
Jimmy Buffett (jim-e buf-it) n -
accomplished musician, prolific songwriter, best-selling author, husband, father, Patriarch of Parrot Heads. Buffett has been likened to a modern-day troubador. His trademark "Trop-rock" musical style and insightfully delightful song lyrics are a Calypsonian-like offering of rythm and ryhme. Witty, yet sublimely profound, Jimmy Buffett's unique brand of music seems to evoke a primordial "call-of-the-wild" that resounds with such an array that his fan base, a.k.a. Parrot Heads, is made up of everyone from corporate CEOs to college students, preachers to politicians. Rumor has it there might even be an African chieftan or two in the mix.
Parrot Head (par' ut hed) n -
a highly-motivated Jimmy Buffett fan, one who answers the Call of Bubba.
The word "parrothead" or "parrot head" was coined by guest Coral Reefer, Timothy B Schmidt, (of Eagles' fame) a number of years ago as he noticed the huge sea of Cincinnati fans decked out in colorful Hawaiian-print shirts, beachwear and other fruited and feathered finery. Schmidt remarked to Buffett that from the stage, "they look[ed] like Dead Heads in suits ...or 'parrot heads'!" A bemused Jimmy passed this observation on to the crowd, inadvertently christening them and fans, forevermore, Parrotheads. A more befitting title for this gregarious and devoted group of fans would surely be hard to come by!!

I had a chance to review the pair of hand warmers and the universal
back/neck/shoulder wrap heat pack. Oh my goodness! I cannot tell you how
much I love these!
...... While spring is almost here, we still have very chilly mornings and
this house holds on to that cold all day long no matter how warm it gets
outside. I can easily put a heat pack into each one of my cardigan
pockets and my hands get to be nice and toasty, thus improving my
overall temperature! I would also like to mention that these hand warmers
go beyond warming hands. They also provide great therapy for carpal
tunnel pain and arthritis. Mr. B thinks these are the coolest things. He
loves to see the crystallization process and it just blows his mind that the
hand warmers get warm.
The universal back/neck/shoulder wrap heat pack is just that, universal. It
is so handy! With it's large size and it's conforming ease, this heat pack
is sure to take care of any pains you may have in your back, neck and
shoulders. I'll even tell you, this is so great for any lady pains you may
have whether in your abdomen or in your lower back! It provides warm
enough heat for just the right amount of time to ease those cramps. Both
my husband and I have enjoyed this. From the stress of the day, placing
the universal heat pack right on your shoulders is so relaxing!.....

In 1971, young Johnny Morris, frustrated by the lack of tackle in local stores, rented a U-Haul trailer and took off across the country filling it with the newest premium fishing tackle he could find.
When he returned home to Springfield, Missouri, Johnny envisioned creating one place where anglers could go to get all the best gear, much like golfers could do at a golf pro shop. With this simple but effective idea, Bass Pro Shops was born.
Johnny started in the fishing business with 8 feet of space in his dad's liquor store, which became a popular stopping-off place for local and out-of-state fishermen on the way to the Ozarks' famous bass lakes. A number of these anglers started calling when they got back home wanting Johnny to send them some of his specialized Bass Pro Shops tackle.
In 1974, in response to this demand, he printed and mailed his first Bass Pro Shops catalog. Today, outdoor enthusiasts around the world look forward to opening the mail and getting their favorite Bass Pro Shops catalog, while many enjoy visiting and shopping basspro.com.
In 1978, Johnny introduced the first professionally rigged boat, motor, and trailer fish-ready "package." The Bass Tracker boat package revolutionized the marine industry.
From that simple beginning, Bass Pro Shops has become one of America's premier outdoor retailers with destination outdoor retail stores across America and Canada, serving over 75 million sportsmen a year.
As the times have changed, so have we. Today, huge boat showrooms are featured in every Bass Pro Shops store. Bass Pro Shops isn't just about fishing anymore. Bass Pro Shops is also a leading outdoor retailer in hunting, camping, nature gifts, outdoor cooking, and much more.

Compassion and cost: The dual role of reference pricing
AbstractProviding health insurance involves a trade-off between the benefits from risk spreading and the costs due to moral hazard. Focusing on pharmaceuticals consumption, this paper examines theoretically whether reference pricing, requiring individuals to pay the price difference if, in this case, they don't buy the cheaper parallel imported drug, can ease this trade-off – an issue which has not previously been pointed out in the debate on health insurance. The results indicate that, if individuals are extremely risk-averse, a policy shift from coinsurance to reference pricing would do this by providing more insurance while decreasing moral hazard.

KNOXVILLE (WATE) -- On an interrogation tape played Friday, George Thomas, the third defendant being tried in the Christian-Newsom murders, admitted he saw the victims blindfolded in the house where Channon Christian's body was found.
Channon Christian and her boyfriend, Christopher Newsom, were carjacked, raped and murdered on the weekend of January 6-7, 2007.
Newsom's body was found on Sunday. He was bound, shot and burned along a set of East Knoxville railroad tracks near Chipman Street.
Christian's body was found two days later in a trash can in a defendant's rental house on Chipman Street. She was wrapped in trash bags and the medical examiner said she eventually suffocated.
Woman drove Thomas, others, to Ky. in exchange for drugs
The state's first witness was Jody Long, a friend of Vincent Wernimont, who got drugs from LeMaricus Davidson.
LeMaricus Davidson was given the death penalty in October for his role in the slayings.
Wernimont and Davidson met in a West Tennessee state penitentiary. Wernimont asked Davidson to move to Knoxville when he was released.
Long testified that she was asked to take Thomas, and two other defendants, Letalvis Cobbins and Vanessa Coleman, to Kentucky.
She said Wernimont paid her with a morphine, cocaine and a full tank of gas.
Cobbins was convicted in August and sentenced to life without parole.
An appeal of Vanessa Coleman's case was denied on Monday. One of her attorneys said he expects her trial to be scheduled in the spring.
Long told the court the trio seemed "normal," but also said she smoked dope before the drive.
Long said the trip took about four hours. They made two stops for gas and food.
Long told ATF agents she couldn't identify who she drove to Kentucky because of her drug use, but she pointed Thomas out in court.
Woman says gun found at her Ky. home after arrests
The state's next witness was Natosha Hays. Thomas, Cobbins and Coleman were arrested at her house in Lebanon, Kentucky.
Hays said she met Thomas through Cobbins.
She described the trio coming to her home after the crimes and said they, "seemed a little edgy."
Hays said they used her computer while they were there and she asked Thomas what was wrong? she said, he told her it was "none of your concern."
Knoxville stations were reporting the murders of Christian and Newsom at that point and broadcasting that Davidson and Cobbins were wanted for questioning.
Hays said Thomas' then girlfriend, Stacey Lawson, took the defendants to a convenience store to buy snacks for them with food stamps.
Hays described how a friend of hers found a gun in her home under a bed in a box. This was after officers searched her home the day before and didn't find it.
Investigators have theorized that Coleman hid the gun there after the house was searched because it was used in the murders. However, analysts haven't been able to identify any of the guns in evidence as being used to kill Chris Newsom.
ATF agent: Officers had to go in to get Thomas when he wouldn't come out
The state called ATF Agent Barney Waggoner to the stand. He testified that on January 10, he and other agents traveled to Kentucky to locate the suspects.
Waggoner said the next day, agents tracked down the suspects at Hays' house through Lawson.
Waggoner mentioned that agents knew who Hays was and who other suspects were as well.
At that point, Judge Richard Baumgartner halted testimony and sent the jury out for a recess. Then he explained that they must be careful about discussing criminal pasts in front of this jury. Thomas has no prior record in Kentucky.
The Thomas defense team moved for a mistrial, but the judge denied it, saying he didn't think any damage was done.
Judge Baumgartner did direct the prosecutors and Waggoner to work out how they will clear up any confusion about Thomas' past.
When the jury was brought back in and Waggoner came back to the stand, prosecutor Takisha Fitzgerald asked him questions to clarify that Thomas has no prior record in Kentucky.
Waggoner then described the arrests of Thomas and Cobbins at Hays' house after it was surrounded. He said Hays and Coleman came out first.
Waggoner said eventually, everyone was out of the house but Thomas, who wouldn't come out after repeated calls. Then officers saw someone looking out of the blinds.
Waggoner and other officers went in, but Thomas stayed upstairs. He said after repeated warnings, Thomas came downstairs and was taken into custody.
Agent Waggoner said the suspects were taken to the police station. He guarded Thomas and Coleman. Cobbins was already being questioned.
Waggoner said he had a short conversation with Thomas and asked if he played football because of a T-shirt he wore. Thomas said he played for "a couple of years" in Michigan.
Officers searched Hays' house, looking specifically for .22 caliber bullets.
Waggoner said he looked under the bed where the gun was later found, but it wasn't there when he looked.
Thomas was questioned after Cobbins and served with a federal warrant while he was still in custody in Kentucky.
Waggoner identified several items found at Hays' house including pink shoes and a torn phone charger which was in a toilet. Those were later identified as belonging to Channon Christian.
Waggoner also said he found a bullet hole in a wall and two in a ceiling panel that he believed were made by a .22 caliber gun.
Waggoner said officers ripped apart the walls, but didn't find bullets or casings. However, they found two .22 caliber bullets in a sink trap.
On cross examination, defense attorney Tom Dillard asked Waggoner if who knew who put the bullets in the sink trap or how long they had been there. Waggoner said he didn't know.
Waggoner told Dillard Thomas was told about three times to come out of the house before they went in after him, but he didn't resist when he was arrested.
Waggoner said Thomas was searched at the time of his arrest, but he didn't have any bullets or gun on him.
The jury asked Waggoner if officers searched the room of Hay's daughter. He said, they didn't. The jury asked why not? Waggoner said, "because of Hays' request not to search it."
On tape: Thomas admits he saw victims blindfolded in house
The state next called Knox County sheriff's Detective Nevil Norman to the stand. He helped interrogate Thomas when he was brought back to Tennessee in custody.
Judge Baumgartner ruled earlier this week to allow testimony about a racially charged statement Norman said Thomas made during his interrogation.
Norman said when they took a break, he had asked if Thomas didn't wish he had done something to help the victims.
Norman said Thomas responded, " F!#* that white girl. She don't mean nothing to me. You cops come into my neighborhood and kill us why should I get involved in something that's none of my business."
Norman said the statement shocked him, but he didn't reveal it until 17 months later, in 2008. He said he wrote it up and turned it in to the sheriff and the district attorney general because it wasn't tape recorded.
Prosecutor Takisha Fitzgerald questioned Norman about the statement on Friday and he admitted he was "tired" by the time he spoke with Thomas.
The state began playing a recording of Thomas' interrogation by sheriff's officers including now Knox County Sheriff J. J. Jones and then Sheriff Tim Hutchison. Norman said Hutchison was in and out during that time.
On tape, Thomas described Saturday afternoon, January 6. "I woke up around 4:00." An officer asked him about Eric Boyd and Thomas said, "He was over there."
Boyd was convicted in 2008 in a federal trial as an accessory in this case and sentenced to 18 years in prison.
Thomas said he remembered seeing Davidson and Boyd with the victims. "I'm thinking, what are you all doing?"
Thomas said he was having trouble remembering what happened, but finally said Christian was taken into a bedroom by Davidson or Boyd. "I'm not saying anything but I ain't stupid," Thomas said.
Thomas admitted to officers that Christian and Newsom were blindfolded in Davidson's rental house on Chipman Street. He also admitted he was in Christian's stolen Toyota 4Runner, which was found parked on Chipman Street.
Thomas said Cobbins was talking to Davidson about planning a carjacking, but he didn't recall who went to carjack the car.
Thomas said "the girl" (Christian) was taken into a bedroom and "the dude" (Newsom) was taken outside. "That's when I went into the back bedroom."
Thomas told officers he said, "I don't want to be part of this. That's when we were trying to leave." He said Davidson and Cobbins argued.
"It looks bad that you were there, but it's worse because you're not telling the truth," Officer Jones said.
"What happened to the guy?" an officer asked. "I just heard on the news his body was found by the railroad tracks," Thomas said.
"What about the girl?" an officer asked. "News said she was inside the house," Thomas said.
"Who took him (Newsom) out?" an officer asked. "They walked him outside. The dude and E (Eric Boyd) left," Thomas said, adding that Boyd had a gun to Newsom.
Thomas said Boyd came back about 20 minutes later by himself.
"I'm figuring they done something with the boy (Newsom," Thomas said. He also said that when Boyd walked in, everyone was talking and Christian was tied up in a bedroom.
Thomas also admitted that he saw Christian sitting in a chair without a blindfold. The officers asked if she looked scared, but Thomas said he didn't look at her.
Thomas told officers, "I'm positive I didn't have sex with that girl (Christian)."
An officer asked, "Do you recall that girl being in the bedroom hollering, 'Stop! Please don't do that!'" Thomas said, "Nah, I don't know."
Thomas said he slept by the room where investigators believe Christian was repeatedly raped, but, "I sleep hard. I didn't hear any hollering."
That's where investigators ended that part of their interview.
On the stand Friday, Detective Norman told the court the break with the racially charged statement came right after that.
After lunch the defense cross examined Norman. Defense attorney Tom Dillard asked Norman about the unrecorded statement he said Thomas made and wasn't there a better way to make it known than in a statement 17-and-a-half months later.
Norman said, "I probably could have (written it down) a day or two later, but I just didn't."
"That's not the best way to do that, is it?" Dillard asked. "Probably not," Norman said.
"In fact, you didn't quote it correctly this morning did you?" Dillard asked. "No, sir," Norman said.
Dillard also made a point about Norman's memory of the interrogation, saying, "You couldn't even recall that Sheriff Hutchison was there without the recording."
Dillard pointed out Thomas' confusion through much of his interrogation, referring to a transcript. "I smoke weed," Thomas said, also that he stayed in a back room.
Dillard also pointed out that Norman said to Thomas at one point during questioning, "You're the most innocent person here." Norman agreed, telling Dillard, "Yes, that's what I said."
TBI lab expert found likely bleach stain on Christian's camisole
The state next called Tennessee Bureau of Investigation lab expert Randall Nelson to the stand. He examined stains on Christian's camisole and found one that was most likely bleach.
Officer monitored Thomas' mail in jail
Knox County sheriff's Officer Frank Noss took the stand. He monitors inmates' mail and read letters written between Cobbins and Thomas while they were in the detention center.
Noss said Thomas would sign his letters to Cobbins UTG (United Together) or BWL (Brothers with Love) and either write his middle name "Giovanni" or just "G."
Medical examiner details Newsom's injuries
The state called Knox County Medical Examiner Dr. Darinka Mileusnic-Polchan to the stand. She also serves as medical examiner for Anderson County.
Dr. Mileusnic-Polchan described Newsom's body as the state showed photos taken at the scene. She said she wasn't at that scene, but one of her deputy examiners went there.
Newsom had three gunshot wounds, as well as the charring done to his body when it was burned and the materials found binding and gagging him.
She said Newsom's feet were bound by a belt.
Newsom's arms were bound behind his back. He was gagged with an ankle sock and his head was covered with a sweatshirt. He was also blindfolded with a bandana.
One of the gunshots was to Newsom's head. Dr. Mileusnic-Polchan said it's the one that killed him. He was also shot in the neck and back.
Dr. Mileusnic-Polchan said the amount of dirt on Newsom's feet indicated that he was forced to walk barefoot.
She also told prosecutor Takisha Fitzgerald Newsom was apparently raped a couple of hours before he was killed. She made that determination due to bruises, tearing and how his body was trying to heal.
Thomas didn't react to the pictures of Newsom.
Dr. Mileusnic-Polchan also used a mannequin to show how Newsom was shot and where the bullets wound up. She said he was bent over when he was shot in the back.
She said his injuries were consistent with death around 1:45 a.m. Sunday. Newsom was dead when his body was set on fire.
Medical examiner details Christian's injuries
Dr. Mileusnic-Polchan said she went to the Chipman Street house to examine Channon Christian's body where it was found in a fetal position, stuffed in bags in a trash can.
Christian was bound. There were five trash bags around her body. A smaller white bag was around her head, which was turned at an angle.
As she described the injuries to Christian's genital area, Dr. Mileusnic-Polchan said, "This is more than a rape. This is blunt trauma."
She said Christian's death happened sometime between Sunday evening and Monday and she died due to "lack of oxygen."
Dr. Mileusnic-Polchan said Christian died with her eyes open and it could've taken within three to five minutes of being trapped in the trash can.
The jury asked if Christian was unconscious when she was raped. Dr. Mileusnic-Polchan said it's not likely.
Court to be held on Saturday
The trial will resume Saturday morning at 10:00 a.m. Judge Baumgartner said the proof by the state and the defense should be done by Saturday afternoon.
Thomas will have to tell the court whether he'll testify in his defense.

THE OCEAN AT THE END OF THE LANE is a fable that reshapes modern fantasy: moving, terrifying and elegiac - as pure as a dream, as delicate as a butterfly's wing, as dangerous as a knife in the dark, from storytelling genius Neil Gaiman.
It began for our narrator forty years ago when the family lodger stole their car and committed suicide in it, stirring up ancient powers best left undisturbed. Dark creatures from beyond the world are on the loose, and it will take everything our narrator has just to stay alive: there is primal horror here, and menace unleashed - within his family and from the forces that have gathered to destroy it.
His only defense is three women, on a farm at the end of the lane. The youngest of them claims that her duckpond is an ocean. The oldest can remember the Big Bang.
June 18th, 2013.
Somebody call Bill Nye, and tell him that after 65 million years of scientific guesswork, the noise that pterodactyls made has been rediscovered. It's coming out of my mouth right now.

PLYMOUTH — Twice is nice, but the third time is definitely the charm.
Just ask Plymouth senior Damon Howe.
Coming off a three-peat Northern Lakes Conference championship turn last weekend, the heavyweight earned yet another three-peat as he captured the Rockies their lone sectional championship as the Rockies placed fourth behind Culver Military, while Warsaw won the meet, Bremen finished fifth, Culver was eighth and Triton placed ninth at the Plymouth Wrestling Sectional Saturday.
CULVER — The honors just keep rolling in for Culver Community's girls basketball team.
Just seven days after seizing the program's first Bi-County crown since 1995, the Class 2A No. 6 Lady Cavs captured the Northern State Conference championship — also their first in 16 years — with a 45-36 win over visiting LaVille at John R. Nelson Gymnasium Saturday.
And with New Prairie's 40-38 loss at Bremen Saturday, Culver, riding a 12-game winning streak, claimed the title outright with one game left on the league ledger.
MERRILLVILLE — After suffering a close loss earlier in the week to West Noble, Plymouth gymnastics traveled to Merrillville Saturday where the Lady Pilgrims had to face five Top 20 teams at the Pirate Pride Invitational.
Plymouth scored a season-high 83.3 at Merrillville but still finished in eighth place at the loaded 10-team meet, which was won by No. 8 Portage with a score of 106.125.
Plymouth scored season high team scores on all four events, led by freshman Nicky Davis.
DUNLAP — Led by four scoring swims from lone senior Poaolo Palmitessa, Plymouth tallied a 112 to finish sixth out of eight teams, while Northridge won with a dominant 521 at the Northern Lakes Conference Championships Saturday at Concord.
Palmitessa opened and closed the day for the Pilgrims, swimming the opening leg of Plymouth's 200 medley relay and the anchor for the Pilgrims' 400 free relay team, both of which placed sixth. He also finished 10th individually in both the 200-yard Individual Medley and 100-yard breast stroke as Plymouth scored points in 10 of 14 events at the NLC meet.
MISHAWAKA — Brock Smith led the Pilgrims to their second straight win as Plymouth scored 23 points in the fourth quarter to rally past Mishawaka for a 49-41 victory on the road Saturday.
In just his second game back after being sidelined with a shoulder injury, Smith scored a game-high 16 points, pulled down four rebounds and pilfered three steals after leading Plymouth to a lopsided 44-38 Northern Lakes Conference win over Northridge with nine points Friday.
LAKEVILLE — On another night, LaVille head coach Michael Edison might have worried about a letdown.
After all, the Lancers were coming off a big win against Rochester Tuesday, their first in 14 years to be exact. And it was Homecoming week in Lancerland, with all the distractions that entails.
WALKERTON — Size mattered for John Glenn Friday. And strength. And depth. And quickness. And offensive balance.
The Falcons utilized all five of those qualities to work the ball inside, and finish, in a 67-46 Northern State Conference boys basketball win over visiting Knox at The Aerie.
With Knox standout Josh Risner sidelined for the evening by what Redskins head coach Todd Boldry termed "a violation of team rules," the Falcons opened the second half with a game-changing 17-1 run to convert a five-point halftime edge into a 44-23 lead with 2:53 left in the third frame.
NEW CARLISLE — Sometimes a close game can get away in the blink of an eye, like in Friday night's meeting between Bremen and host New Prairie.
Bremen trailed by six points going into the fourth quarter, but a 19-5 New Prairie run pushed the Cougars to a 67-51 victory.
It was an unfortunate result for Bremen, which played some of its best basketball of the season through three quarters.
HAMLET — Trinity's plan was to keep Zach Richie down.
Their plan was more successful than they could have hoped, and Trinity left Oregon-Davis with a win at the Bobcats' Homecoming, 72-59.
"We knew we had to stop Zach," Trinity head coach Mark Havard said. "We knew he was their big scorer. We knew he was a tough competitor, but we were up for the challenge. "
Big scorer might be an understatement. As a junior, the Bobcat is only 28 points shy of 1000, and only five points shy of O-D's record of most points scored in a season. But the Titans were certainly up to the challenge.
