Hello to all of you Marshall Mountain Wave readers and greetings from the Jewel of the Ozarks, Leslie, Arkansas. Well we got about a foot of snow last week and it was so deep that it is still on the ground. The weather has been very cold and bright and sunny. There is expected to be another Winter storm brewing. I am hoping that it is not ice.

Social media has become such a key component of most peopleâs lives that it is easy to think that it as always been there. SixDegrees, created in 1997, was the first social media site similar to the format known today. When SixDegrees shut down in 2001, Friendster, LinkedIn, MySpace, and Facebook soon took root. The University of Maine reports there are now 4.8 billion social media users worldwide, representing 92.7 percent of all internet users. And according to the American Family Survey 2023, 96 percent of parents say their kids have access to at least one social media platform. Many use multiple online platforms daily. Although social media may have originated as a means to bring people together, there are many who argue that it actually does the opposite.
On Jan 02, 2025 Kassie and Jason Hay started Martial Arts classes at the Marshall Civic Center. Jason and Kassie Hay just recently moved to Marshall, AR and noticed that there were no Martial Arts classes in the Searcy County area. Anyone who wanted to attend classes like that had to drive at least an hour or more to attend. Jason and his family saw this need in Marshall and decided to fulfill it.
Hello to all of you Marshall Mountain Wave readers and greetings from the very Wintery cold Jewel of the Ozarks, Leslie, Arkansas. The weather has been so very cold this past week down into the teens. There is a Winter storm brewing that is supposed to bring a lot of snow and ice our way. I am hoping that we donât get too much of either.
Data from the ASPCA¨ indicates that roughly 6.3 million companion animals enter animal shelters in the United States each year. A nearly equal number of dogs (3.1 million) and cats (3.2 million) make up that population, and roughly twothirds of those shelter animals are eventually adopted each year. But the landscape for shelter animals is fluid, and the first half of 2023 was proof of that. According to the Association for Animal Welfare Advancement, dog intakes at animal shelters had increased by 4 percent during the first two quarters of 2023 compared to the same period the year prior. During that same time, cat intakes had declined by roughly 1 percent. One possible reason for the higher intake of dogs is related to how prospective dog owners begin their search. A recent analysis of Google Trends found that the search term âbuy a dogâ is now as common as the term âadopt a dog.â By choosing to adopt rather than buy a dog, prospective dog owners could save a dogâs life and help often overburdened local adoption shelters looking to ensure dogs in their care end up in safe and happy homes.

Psalm 1: 1-2 Blessed is the man who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the LORD, and who meditates on his law day and night.
