  • WWE Superstar, Baron Corbin Interview
    A former NFL player whose aggression got him booted from the game, Baron Corbin has found the perfect outlet for his rage in WWE, and the perfect target for it in, well, anyone and everyone who crosses his path. Less a Superstar than a force of nature, The Lone Wolf made his mark on The Grandest Stage of Them All when he eliminated Kane from the third annual Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal to win the bout and stake his claim as the legendary giant’s heir apparent. He hasn’t stopped since then, wrecking rivals like AJ Styles, Dean Ambrose and Sami Zayn, and winning the Money in the Bank Ladder Match and the United States Championship. Corbin likes to proclaim that he spells the End of Days for anyone who dares to fight him. At the end of the day, that might just land him the WWE [Championship.@BaronCorbinWWE](mailto:Championship.@BaronCorbinWWE)

  • Slacker Saves Valentine's with Eddie V's Interview
    Eddie V’s Prime Seafood on 47th Street, in the Country Club Plaza, serving quality seafood and hand-carved steaks in a relaxed, lounge atmosphere. Owned by Orlando-based Darden Restaurants, it's a sister concept to The Capitol Grille and Seasons 52\. It won't be the first restaurant on the plaza tempting diners with similar fare, but managing partner David Dworsky says its indulgent seafood dishes and personalized service coupled with a charismatic lounge atmosphere will make Eddie V's a destination for locals and tourists alike. “It is our goal to indulge our guests at every turn, creating a personalized level of care and service that matches the high quality cuisine and atmosphere,” Dworsky says. With live music nightly, Eddie V’s is looking create a true lounge environment in the restaurant’s V Lounge, a space that will feature classic cocktails and an award-winning wine list with more than 200 bottles from around the world. An expansive oval-shaped bar top surrounded by cocktail tables and elevated booth seating fills the lounge, plus a piano that will be put to good use by local jazz trios seven days a week. The menu, which is mostly seafood, will also feature quality hand-cut steaks. Seafood dishes span the culinary spectrum from modern Asian to southern cuisine. Standout items include the Point Judith Calamari appetizer, served with a kung pao-style sauce, roasted cashews and crisp noodles, while the jumbo lump crab cake, sautéed Maryland-style with spicy chive remoulade highlights a New England flavor profile. Entrées follow a similar pattern: Alaskan Halibut is served with a miso glaze, sugar snap peas and shiitake mushrooms, while the swordfish steak is broiled and served with fresh lump crab, avocado, cilantro and red chile. Although Eddie V's is a chain, a trio of local ladies will be heading up the restaurant, including executive chef Crystal Morris, who joined Eddie V’s after cooking for The Capital Grille in both Kansas City and Minneapolis. Morris and sous chef Shelby Fahrni were trained at Johnson County Community College culinary arts program in Kansas City; service manager Rachel Thompson rounds out the trio. Construction is already underway on what will be the 14th location of Eddie V’s and the first in Missouri. The 10,000-square-foot space seats 318 inside, plus an outdoor patio. Dworsky explains that Darden Restaurants inherited the name when they purchased Eddie V's Prime Seafood in 2011\. “But, I tell my staff that each one of them shoulders the responsibility of being Eddie V every night in the restaurant,” he says. “I want them to know that they are empowered with making each guest feel special and cared for.” Eddie V’s, 700 W. 47th St., Country Club Plaza, Kansas City, Missouri, 816.531.2537, eddiev.com

  • Go Red for Women Interview 2018
    About Heart Disease in Women The more a woman knows about heart disease, the better chance she has of beating it. The first facts you need to know are very serious: Heart disease and stroke cause 1 in 3 deaths among women each year – more than all cancers combined. Fortunately, we can change that because 80 percent of cardiac and stroke events may be prevented with education and action. Go Red For Women inspires women to make lifestyle changes, mobilize communities and shape policies to save lives. United, we are working to improve the health of all women. Go Red For Women Is Leading The Battle Here at Go Red For Women, we’re doing everything we can to fight heart disease in women. We’re providing life saving information to women of all ages and ethnicities, we’re increasing gender-focused medical research, and we provide a tight community of likeminded champions who have banded together to form an unstoppable army against heart disease in women. Heart Disease In Women Can Be Different Than Men’s We’re also dispelling the vast amount of misinformation about heart disease and its symptoms in women. For example, heart attack symptoms in women can be different than what men experience. Chest pain is often not a symptom for women, but jaw pain can be.Cheryl Holmes thought her breathing difficulty and extreme sweating were because she was pregnant. Even her doctor was convinced pregnancy was the source of her symptoms. When they didn’t subside after the birth of her child, she discovered these were caused by heart disease. Jen Thorson was an avid runner who never thought she would be a candidate for heart disease. Her first symptoms were shortness of breath and then back pain. She was only 37, but was properly diagnosed and began treatment that saved her life. Join With Us, Because We’re Stronger Together Both Cheryl and Jen are now active spokespersons for Go Red For Women. They gladly share their successful heart disease stories so other women can learn from their experiences. Go Red For Women is a global community whose hearts are united against this terrible disease. The more you learn about heart disease, the more you’ll want to join with us, and Go Red yourself! Take action today by learning more about your risk for heart disease and stroke

  • Former Genesis Guitarist, Steve Hackett Interview
    Steve Hackett is renowned as an immensely talented and innovative rock musician. He was lead guitarist with Genesis as part of their classic line up with Gabriel, Collins, Banks and Rutherford, that produced acclaimed albums such as Selling England by the Pound (a favourite of John Lennon). With Steve's extraordinary versatility in both his electric guitar playing and his composing, he involves influences from many genres, including Jazz, World Music and Blues. He is equally adept in his classical albums that include renditions of pieces by composers from Bach to Satie, his own acoustic guitar compositions that have gained the admiration of many, including Yehudi Menuhin, and ambitious guitar/ orchestra albums such as A Midsummer Night's Dream, recorded with the Royal Philharmonic. With Genesis, Steve's guitar playing produced some of the most memorable moments, from the sensitivity of his acoustic sound on Horizons and Blood on the Rooftops to the dramatic rock guitar solos of Firth of Fifth and Fountain of Salmacis. As he embarked on his solo career he developed his exceptional range, pushing musical boundaries into exciting areas, inventing new sounds and also techniques such as 'tapping'. His solo career went from strength to strength and the mid eighties not only saw the hit single Cell 151, but also the Steve Hackett and Steve Howe super group GTR, highly successful in America. Steve Hackett After GTR Steve worked further with many renowned musicians such as Paul Carrick, Bonny Tyler, John Wetton and Brian May, who has credited Steve as an early influence. Steve went on to produce his hit album Genesis Revisited. He went even further back to his roots with Blues with a Feeling, whilst continuing to challenge his own 'horizons' with an amazingly eclectic mix of sounds, genres and a sense of the exotic that excites his many followers to this day. Recent albums have possessed a high level of sophistication, along with an ever-present powerful dynamic, from the dramatic and atmospheric darkness of Darktown and Wild Orchids to the colourful voyage through time and space of To Watch the Storms. 2009's Out Of The Tunnel's Mouth, written and recorded in the midst of domestic and professional upheaval, was released to an overwhelmingly positive response from fans and reviewers alike, many of them proclaiming it his best ever. Hot on the heels of OOTTM was Beyond the Shrouded Horizon released in 2011, which has easily received an equally enthusiastic response. In 2012 Steve collaborated with Chris Squire of Yes on the "Squackett" album A Life Within a Day. Steve's live electric gigs take his fans on an extraordinary journey drawn from a rich musical heritage. Perennial Genesis favourites such as the mighty Firth Of Fifth sit alongside solo classics, while more recent solo material is also included, demonstrating that Steve is an artist still at the very top of his game. Supported by some of the best musicians on the planet, Steve's unique guitar work remains the fulcrum on which this challenging and exhilarating show is balanced. Genesis' induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in March 2010 stands as a testament to the enduring qualities of their music. Steve has always held a torch for the classic Genesis music. His Genesis Revisited II, a double CD, involves several iconic artists and contains many Genesis favourites. It was released in late October 2012\. A Genesis Revisited worldwide tour in 2013 was followed by a Genesis Extended tour in 2014 and early 2015 due to popular demand… Never one to rest on his laurels, Steve continues to blaze a trail with new material and to be an exhilarating and groundbreaking artist. Following the success of his album Wolflight, his latest album The Night Siren gained even more notoriety, charting in several countries and reaching the top 30 in the UK charts. He tours worldwide. In February / March 2018 he will tour from North America to South America encompassing his whole career with Genesis Revisited, new and old solo numbers and a touch of GTR…

  • Minsky's Interview
    At Minsky’s, “Gourmet, and going to stay that way” is more than just a slogan. From the moment you bite into one of our award-winning gourmet pizzas, you’ll understand why Minsky’s has been repeatedly voted “Kansas City’s Best Pizza!” Our savory pizzas begin with hand-rolled dough layered with generous portions of lean, succulent meats, fresh-cut vegetables, aromatic herbs and topped with 100% Wisconsin mozzarella, then baked to bubbling perfection. Our Original or Honey Whole Wheat doughs are both offered in Thin + Crispy, Minsky’s Original or Deep Dish Pan. Teamed with your favorite beverages from our full bar, we think you’ll taste why Minsky’s Pizza has been Kansas City’s favorite neighborhood pizzeria for 39 years.
    Minsky’s new Bacon Explosion Gourmet Pizza explodes onto the scene just in time for the Big Game – but this BBQ Bacon delight is available for a limited time only! The original “Bacon Explosion” – the extreme bacon and Italian sausage log with its signature weave of, you guessed it, more bacon – was the Internet-storming brainchild of KC BBQ savants Megan & Jason Day nearly a decade ago. Now, for a limited time only, the taste that made it great is baked into Minsky’s Bacon Explosion Gourmet Pizzas! Click here to see Megan Day introduce the new Bacon Explosion. Minsky’s Bacon Explosion starts with real Wisconsin Mozzarella on your favorite Minsky’s crust. Bring on the chopped Farmland Bacon and cut pickle strips. Then we blast this bad-boy with julienned sliced “Bacon Explosion” bacon BBQ sausage. We top it all off with our zesty KC BBQ sauce, bake it to perfection, and then…BOOM! Welcome to Minsky’s one and only BACON EXPLOSION PIZZA!
