The building is about 2400 Square feet. It would need cleaning once a week.

The rooms:

1 kitchenette 3 bathrooms 3 entrance areas 6 offices 2 large workrooms

Piney Woods: identical to North Louisiana except they're Hogs fans. If Arkansas was cut off at the 35th parallel like Tennessee, this would all be Louisiana, which makes sense.

Ouachitas: no distinctive culture. The only notable city wholly located in the region ( https://nativegardendesigns.wildones.org/whats-my-ecoregion/ ) is a resort city, while every other area connected to the region is geographically close to another region and has cultural ties to that. Probably comparable to the emerald coast of Florida (except obviously geologically not similar) because it has obvious southern influences from surrounding regions but has also just become basically a retirement home.

River valley: feels like the parts of Middle Tennessee outside of the Nashville metro. UCA is our Austin Peay. Potentially some great plains influence in the western extreme (I actually can't speak to this -- Fort Smith is the only sizable city in AR I'm truly unfamiliar with), but negligible in the majority of the region.

Fayetteville: distinct from the rest of the Ozarks. Feels like North Texas. Obviously has great plains influences, probably more so than anywhere else in the state, but is unlike Tulsa and way more like Dallas in that it obviously has extensive southern influence as well (probably due to the fact that the city is largely made up of sorority girls who "got out of" their hometowns and stayed). Very keeping up with the Jones's but also has a very traditional SEC vibe of crazy rush, smock monogram dresses on all the girls at the games, football-centered culture (in high school too, may be stereotypical but feels like Texas lmao)... SMU is the counterpart of the UofA (though the school itself and the culture surrounding it is most similar to SEC schools like Ole Miss or Bama -- Fayetteville itself is absolutely nothing like Oxford or Tuscaloosa). Just like Dallas suburbs, it's unlike the south in that people are way less openly polite and more judgmental and unfriendly (not trying to paint anyone with a broad brush -- of course there are great people everywhere but south of Fayetteville people are in general friendlier) and it also doesn't have good southern food, and seems to be actively trying to shed its southern identity while keeping the "debutante" aspect.

Ozarks: feels like southern Appalachia (the Missouri Ozarks would be the "central Appalachia" counterpart). Bentonville is our Asheville.

Delta: feels exactly like Mississippi.

Crowley's Ridge: feels like the parts of West Tennessee outside of the Memphis metro, more specifically the parts towards the northern border with Kentucky.

Is there a Polish club or something here? I’ve seen mentions of a French club, and a Spanish club on Twitter but nothing of a Polish club.

Perhaps a Polish tutor? Or heck even native Polish speakers? I’m looking for a way to practice/and or learn Polish.

looking for people in the car scene male or female 17-25.. me and my friend are looking for people that love cars and are just looking to be friends! around the benton/bryant to little rock even jacksonville!

Looking to get married in April. Anybody know any good outdoors spots in Central Arkansas that could be a wedding venue? I've thought about Gulpha Gorge, or Lake Degray, or near Pinnacle Mountain.

He has a lot of ads on CBS local news here. Just wondering if he's widely approved of in legal circles.

A simple man that knows exactly what he wants.

This story takes a lot of unraveling. When the FOIA constitutional amendment was needing signatures earlier, the group hired a lawyer to write the proposed legal language. This was Jen Standerfer, a mom and a 20-year acting lawyer and native of Arkansas.

Interview: https://conduitnews.com/2024/06/26/attorney-speaks-out-after-arrest-over-foia-petition/

News links from June: https://www.kark.com/news/local-news/attorney-speaks-out-after-being-detained-by-police-during-arkansas-bar-association-convention/

https://arkansasadvocate.com/2024/06/14/hot-springs-police-handcuff-advocate-for-government-transparency-remove-her-from-public-venue/

Her story was that she went to the Arkansas Bar Association's annual meeting in 2024, where political activism is routine. She brought her FOIA petitions with her. Because each petition needs to be separated by county, there was a lot of clipboards and things, so she had a mommy wagon the first day and some signage so people could quickly identify the cause for which she was advocating.

After hauling the wagon to the meetings (the required continuing education seminars), she was eventually told that the Hot Springs convention center was wanting her to stop. So she took her wagon to the car and left most of her FOIA stuff there.

The next day, she gets pulled aside by convention staff. Remember this is a huge gathering of lawyers. She talked briefly to the president of the Bar and was told that they "have no position" about her petitions. But the event staff is livid. She has a few clipboards with her.

She eventually got into discussions with convention center staff, who told her numerous times not to solicit. Jen told them, great, I have not solicited all day and I shall not solicit - the clipboards were still there for friends and colleagues to sign upon request.

A police officer sits and watches her during her class, and a few people ask her to sign the FOIA petition. She obliges, hands them clipboards, and they sign. It is at this point that she is arrested while the break-out sessions continue around her. Her husband is in the room and doesn't even see what happened. They had never thought that there was going to be an arrest for handing people clipboards.

People, this woman was handcuffed in a room full of lawyers for allowing her friends to sign a petition. An armed guard, sworn to uphold the Constitution, body cam rolling, was used as a pawn to send a message: we don't like FOIA. The Arkansas Bar Association was complicit. While they said "we have no position" to her face, they worked in secret to get her kicked out of her own organization's paid seminar.

FOIA is a hot topic right now due to the Sarah Huckabee Sanders administration's choice to tamp down FOIA. It is in the wake of the podium scandal. The lectern of infamy, I am sure you've heard about, is just one humorous element of the way FOIA, hidden government business, and the press collide. And plain old citizens of Arkansas who want to know what their government is doing. As you may know, the FOIA measure that Standerfer was collecting signatures for did not come up with enough this year by July 5. (The Arkansas news media association announced that they didn't bother submitting the signatures to count, as they were far short.)

Something is going on in the halls of justice. This was not a convention-center-goes-rogue-and-hilarity-ensues story. This is a story of how the Good Ole Boys will not tolerate dissent. I encourage you to watch the interview. I couldn't hardly stop. I have summarized it here briefly. I have no dog in this fight, but I do like FOIA laws and transparency. I am not a news media fanboy by any stretch, but I do believe that news investigations are still vital to our republic.

I hope this is not the last we hear of this incident. Jen Standerfer is an unlikely hero who eschews political activism as it is normally seen. This was a kindler, gentler political activism that had a harsh penalty. She is not an activist - she was just helping guide this particular 1st amendment "right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government." She was perp-walked out of the room in handcuffs for a dispute that she thought was taken care of by lawyer-like conversations.

There is video of the incident, and several stories online about it. It was a few months ago, but this is just too crazy to not say something. I feel that we, and Mrs. Standerfer, should have the right to peaceably assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. And not get arrested for it.

So, thousands of years ago when dinosaurs ruled the earth and UALR offered German as a language option, there used to be a German club that would meet up every so often to chat and what not. Any chance something similar exists these days? Or any recommendations on where one may find German speakers, native or otherwise, looking to keep their bilingual skills up to date?

Hi, I am looking into moving to Little rock from Canada because of house pricing, but my concern are firearms. Its not possible to own firearms here unless you get a proper training and checks and you can't carry them in public. But I hear many states down south have open-carry laws, so I wonder how do you guys live with that ? And how do tourists feel safe when visiting those states!

P.S. I have not really left Canada before except for Erurope and shortly to New york and Pennsylvania, so I never pondered over this.

I'm considering going to UALR for college next fall. Either that or Fayetteville actually. I want to do Civil Engineering or Construction Management. I believe UALR has both, while Fayetteville only has CE. 1 thing that turns me off from Fayetteville is the distance from home, about 3 hours. However, one thing that turns me off from UALR is the crime (Plus I've heard some people say that UALR wasn't necessarily a crazy good school, or that it was straight up boring). Any advice?
