Local stuff in local boy Jeff Nichols' 'Mud'

The movie's obviously filmed in DeWitt and elsewhere in Southeast Arkansas and stars Yell County's Jacob Lofland. And those who know Lucero, undoubtedly, will recognize a few songs from Jeff's brother Ben Nichols. But you may've missed a few other local connections.

Tom Cotton's attack on the Constitution

Several people sent links this morning to yet another odd performance by U.S. Rep. Tom Cotton, already distinguished by his opposition to replenishing to country's disaster aid money unless it can be taken out of some other recipient's hide.
Mineral Springs schools — fiscal distress, but heckuva football field
