Ahead on this edition of Ozarks. A Facebook-job-posting-a-day approach to getting people in the Fort Smith region who are looking for work. Work Fort Smith is taking a small, but consistent, path to connecting those seeking work to those seeking employees. We'll also review the past seven days in Arkansas politics and business with Roby Brock from Talk Business Arkansas and two approaches to solar power…including area high school students taking to a swimming pool to test their solar-powered boats. And Meredith Martin Moats continues her series on books about Arkansas with a review of a study of the man who brought electricity to the state, Harvey Couch.
