What's going on / Music Thursday To-Do: 103.7 The Buzz Christmas Celebrity Karaoke Contest
Posted by Robert Bell on Wed, Dec 12, 2012 at 10:32 AM
103.7 THE BUZZ CHRISTMAS CELEBRITY KARAOKE CONTEST
6 p.m. UALR's Jack Stephens Center. $50-$65.
A Central Arkansas holiday tradition continues with this star-studded celebration. The 103.7 The Buzz Christmas Celebrity Karaoke Contest is your chance to see local and national celebs belt out some of their favorite songs.
Alongside all your Buzz personalities (including Tommy Smith, David Bazzel, Justin Acri, Pat Bradley, Joe Franklin and others), you can hear golf pro John Daly and Gov. Mike Beebe stretch their vocal cords, as well as bona fide country star Justin Moore.
UPDATE: Moore and Daly were past participants, but will not be at this year's event. Beebe will be attending this year.
This is the seventh year that The Buzz has organized this celebration, which benefits Youth Home, a nonprofit psychiatric treatment center for troubled adolescents.
After the karaoke contest, head on over to Cajun's Wharf for the official after-party. Hang on to your ticket stub and you can get into Cajun's free.

Which one?
May 2, 2013The city of Beebe or Mike Beebe? It's not an easy question. They're both from White County, both have their merits, and their advocates. The town has gained fame for its dead birds; the man as a competent and moderate governor, perhaps the last of his kind. /more/

How the private option flipped the Medicaid expansion debate
May 2, 2013It took a group of clever and obstinate young Republican legislators who refused to go along with Medicaid expansion but weren't ready to close the door on other ideas. They helped force a crafty veteran Democratic governor who was eager to go forward with expansion to consider alternative approaches. Throw in tireless and creative state health officials who happened to have a cozy relationship with their federal It took a group of clever and obstinate young Republican legislators who refused to go along with Medicaid expansion but weren’t ready to close the door on other ideas. They helped force a crafty veteran Democratic governor who was eager to go forward with expansion to consider alternative approaches. Throw in tireless and creative state health officials who happened to have a cozy relationship with their federal counterparts. Probably some luck. And, among everyone involved, it took a slightly crazy, seemingly unjustified optimism that somehow a solution was possible. /more/

Obamacare rules

April 4, 2013Though needed, it came tragically too late. Legislation to curb feral hogs was approved by the House of Representatives last week, but not before Senate Republicans had already overridden Governor Beebe's veto of a bill prohibiting voting without photo identification. /more/

The floor to Gov. Beebe
March 28, 2013Gov. Mike Beebe on Monday vetoed the Republican vote suppression bill because it unnecessarily restricts the right to vote. It was courageous. /more/

Looking good
March 28, 2013The awful legislative session now raging may go into the history books as Beebe's Finest Hour. The governor wouldn't like that — he'd rather be remembered for doing good things than for trying unsuccessfully to stop bad things — but sometimes it's our response to adversity that most distinguishes us. /more/
