Etiquette and Miss Emily Post once frowned upon females who sat gap-legged in public. In Virginia, books in school libraries, teen magazines, and older females often suggested that young ladies cross their legs at the ankle while seated.

"Cross your legs at the ankle young lady" is not totally forgotten today

Angela Bofill was a majestic soul/jazz/pop vocalist starting in the '70s and '80s. Slightly older than the more well-known Anita Baker, Bofill recorded stunning ballads that highlighted her impeccably sweet tone and emotional interpretations. "Tonight I Give In" epitomized the "Quiet Storm" genre. Bofill passed away on June 13, 2024, but for her fans, her tracks will remain on auto-replay for years to come. Read her obituary.

The shrinkwrap comes off several new albums sampled in this show, and there's a decided tilt to Europe. One of the stalwarts of the European avant-garde, Rudi Mahall, offers The Straight Horn Of Rudi Mahall, his first album playing only clarinet. Another reed player from Germany, Fabian Dudek doesn't hold anything back on his intriguing Distant Skies We Dream, while bassist Jasper Hoiby continues with his impressive trio, 3Elements. From Portugal comes a somewhat unusual pairing—saxophone and vibes—on Trafiklys by João Gato and Duarte Ventura. Cradled Cravings is a hard-nosed debut from a typical European quintet these days—The Gatherers with musicians from different countries and led by Slovenian saxophonist Luka Zabric. Over on this side of the Atlantic, new releases continue to drop; this time from Tarbaby (Orrin Evans, Eric Revis & Nasheet Waits), Dave Douglas' Gifts and underground avant-garde pianist John Blum.

What a smart creature.

Hard to believe that a wild animal can outsmart people, then again it does happen a lot, especially in Montana.

Montana is home to a ton of wildlife, places like Yellowstone have pristine habitat for all sorts of animals to thrive, while neighboring properties often have plenty of farm land which can be great habitat for many animals too.

Elk are a mainstay in Montana and one of the creatures that folks flock to the area to get the chance to see. They are massive, the second largest member of the deer family, that can reach up to 1,000...

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great.
