Ozarks At Large
Volunteers and photographers who participate in Help Portrait NWA creates portraits for those in need. 
Arkansas residents across the state continue to recover from last weekend’s massive winter storm. But did you know that during a declared emergency, certain state laws go into effect, to protect you from crooks? The Economic Policy Institute and the AFSCME release a report, Greenwood residents approve a sales tax increase, and more.
Becca reminds us of a few events, including the 47th Silver Tea, that have been rescheduled for this week.
On this edition of Ozarks, what happens when snow and ice force a college to re-schedule finals…including putting finals after commencement? We'll talk to Ray Wallace with the University of Arkansas Fort Smith about how an ice storm can create problems with an academic calendar. And coffee isn't just for breakfast anymore…it's also for a canvas. We'll talk to some people making art out of coffee. And a conversation with Devon Powers. She's written about communication, social media and the commentary economy. She spoke on the University of Arkansas campus recently.
Becca tells us that the eagles are out at Beaver Lake, and a harp concert and more are just ahead on the calendar.
Devon Powers, author and researcher, says the development of the instant commentary on social media is changing our conversational landscape.
The winter storm last week altered the finals exam schedule for the University of Arkansas Fort Smith.
Latest Edition of Ozarks at Large
Thursday, February 13, 2014
Ahead on this edition of Ozarks, a movement in Fayetteville is encouraging residents to be kind to others, not just on Valentine's Day, but all year long. Plus, extremely cold temperatures and out of the ordinary snow storms have some wondering about climate change. We speak with one U of A researcher about global warming's effects on vegetation. And, two R&B divas perform in the region, Becca Martin Brown tells us what's up and more.
Tomorrow, students from three elementary schools in Fayetteville will sell produce on Dickson Street. Some of the fruits, vegetables and herbs were grown in their school gardens.
Women make 90% of the purchasing decisions when it comes to food. Thanks to a program from the University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture, they get to see where their food domes from. Ozarks at Large's Christina Thomas joins the group on a visit to a dairy farm.
"Your Mom" by Richard Swift
Take some country, some blues, some gospel and other influences and you have rockabilly. Arkansas, especially eastern Arkansas, played a big role in the development of the genre.
"Red Headed Woman" by Sonny Burgess
We know Jenny Lind Road and the community of Jenny Lind were named after a Swedish opera singer. We're not exactly sure why. We do know that when she came to the US in 1850, there was excitement.
Becca Martin Brown has the details on the 11th annual 5x5 art fundraiser for the Arts Center of the Ozarks.
at end of show: "Sing About Me" by Kendrick Lamar
