The sex police -- UPDATE
Posted By Max Brantley on Mon, Oct 9, 2006 at 8:02 PM
We are reading between Channel 11's very cautious lines, but it sounds like they are on vibrator/etc. patrol in Russellville. At the Electric Moo, of all places.
UPDATE: Our Pope County filling station bureau chief submitted the photo here of items of a sexual nature found for sale in a roadside rest stop. The Russellville police can drag us before a grand jury, but we will not reveal our confidential source on this item, patriotically renamed during the happier days of the Iraq war. But it's clearly time for another bust.

UPDATE: Hutchinson moves to cover himself on cut to War Memorial Stadium
Gov. Asa Hutchinson apparently felt the burn from KARK's exclusive Tuesday night on his plans to cut state support of War Memorial Stadium in half beginning July 1, 2018. He has a so-far secret plan to make the stadium self-sustaining. We bet that doesn't include state support.

New poll finds Asa Hutchinson with sizeable lead over Jan Morgan, plus support for continuing Medicaid expansion among Republican primary voters
A new poll from Talk Business finds that Governor Hutchinson has a substantial lead over Jan Morgan, the hog-riding, Muslim-banning, gun-toting, airbrushing, RINO-busting gadfly from Hot Springs. And in a doozy of a finding, a substantial plurality of likely voters in the Republican primary now support the Medicaid expansion program.

Finally, a memorial to the 21 boys who were burned to death at Wrightsville in '59
It has been 59 years since 21 teen-aged boys incarcerated at the so-called Negro Boys Industrial School were burned to death in their locked dormitory. The Times wrote about the event in 2008, after the brother and mother of one of the boys approached the Times looking for someone to remember the event, and headlined the story "Stirring the Ashes." But on Saturday, a monument to the boys was placed at Haven of Rest Cemetery, where 14 of the boys were buried.
