<strong>Dr</strong>. <strong>Ben</strong> will be<br />
releasing a book<br />
on his experiences<br />
sometime in winter<br />
of this year.<br />

led <strong>Ben</strong> to begin<br />
the development on<br />

is a way to showcase<br />
that there are<br />
a lot of things to<br />
do in Poplar Bluff.<br />

+Bluffee as a megaphone<br />
to promote<br />
our community.”<br />
said <strong>Ben</strong>. Bluffee<br />
is already hosting<br />
events and Bluffee.<br />
com will launch<br />
April 2nd.<br />

over music. They<br />
both happened to<br />
be the only 3rd Eye<br />
Blind fans in their<br />
group. “<strong>Ben</strong> has always<br />
had a wide array<br />
of interests and<br />
our lives are never<br />
boring. I’m proud of<br />
what he has accom-<br />
plished and we are<br />
very happy here in<br />
Poplar Bluff”, said<br />
Kelli.<br />
<strong>Ben</strong>’s musical<br />
interests can be<br />
seen on myspace<br />

myspace.com/<br />
benadkins. “After<br />
realizing our shared<br />
appreciation for 3rd<br />
Eye Blind, the first<br />
time we really hung<br />
out I knew it was<br />
over”, said <strong>Ben</strong>.<br />
Aside from being<br />
a doctor, a husband,<br />
and developing<br />
