Becca Martin Brown, from Northwest Arkansas Media, says two classic period pieces are coming to area stages.
Ozarks At Large
Bob Livingston is spending some time in Eureka Springs...writing, playing, teaching. He's a founder of the Lost Gonzo Band and has played all around the world.
Ahead on this edition of Ozarks, Spring is officially here, and warmer weather will soon bring with it insects like mayflies and damsel flies out and about. But before those bugs mature, they spend their young lives as nymphs in local waterways. We visit a local creek to see what is swimming and crawling beneath the surface. Plus, a conversation with another one of this year's gubernatorial candidates, Mike Ross. The Democrat has aspirations that stretch beyond this November. And back-handsprings and lateral bars: what it takes to be one of the best gymnastics programs in the country. We spend some time with the Arkansas Razorback Gymbacks, who will host this year's national championship regionals this week.
A national report considers several different factors when determining the health of every county in the country.
The new Ozark Mountain Regional Public Water Authority which delivers Bull Shoals Lake water to towns and districts across Boone, Newton, and Searcy Counties is in trouble. As Jacqueline Froelich reports, several towns that signed on to the drinking water pact appear to be stricken by buyer’s remorse. (Correction: Marshall is in Searcy County and Lead Hill is in Boone County. In my report I erroneously reversed the towns’ locations.)A new report places Benton and Washington counties as the two healthiest in the state. Plus the Hogeye Marathon returns and severe weather is a possibility over the next twenty-four hours.
On this edition of Ozarks, a conversation with House speaker designate Jeremy Gillam. Plus, we tour a compounding pharmacy in Johnson.
Next month is National Poetry Month. For this month's edition of our segment Three People, we ask three poets to talk about their form of artistic expression.
Latest Edition of Ozarks at Large
Friday, May 16, 2014
Ahead on this edition of Ozarks, we conclude our series of conversations with candidates in primary races with GOP Congressional candidate Bruce Westerman. We also welcome Barrett Baber back into the Firmin-Garner Performance Studio to hear a new take on one of his songs.
Twenty projects, spread across the country, are researching strawberry production. The lead researches gathered yesterday in Fayetteville.
Melody Musgrove, director of the Office of Special Education Programs for the U.S. Department of Education, was the commencement speaker for the UA's College of Education and Health Professions.
"What You Know" by Two Door Cinema Club
We make a KUAF button and learn how Kassy Gross became K&A Button Emporium in May’s Locally Made Segment.
"Buttons" by Sia
A Wrecking Ball this month celebrates new beginnings in downtown Springdale.
Only one statewide runoff election will be held next month after yesterday's primary elections, which decided the Democratic and Republican candidates for most of the races for state constitutional offices. One potential ballot measure that is just getting started with passing petitions aims to make all of arkansas wet when it comes to alcohol sales. And, the Jones Center gets another multi-million dollar gift.
