Corte Suprema de Arkansas

La Corte Suprema de Arkansas (en inglés: Supreme Court of Arkansas) es el tribunal supremo estatal de Arkansas. Tiene carácter definitivo, aunque en gran medida es un Tribunal de apelación sobre todo tribunal que interprete leyes estatales o jurisdicción original del estado. La Corte Suprema tiene el poder de revisión, la capacidad de invalidar una ley o estatuto por contravenir una disposición de la Constitución de Arkansas. También puede anular las directivas gubernamentales por violar la Constitución o el derecho estatutario. Sin embargo, no puede intervenir en un área del derecho sobre la que no tiene jurisdicción. Historia Creada por la Constitución de 1836, en su artículo 5, la Corte Suprema estuvo compuesta por tres jueces, es decir, el presidente del Tribunal Supremo y dos vocales, elegidos por períodos de ocho años por la Asamblea General de Arkansas. Sin embargo, según la ley 205 de 1925, el número de vocales se amplió hasta seis. ​ Los jueces son elegidos por períodos de ocho años, renovables, de manera escalonada, para evitar que sea completada la sala en una sola elección.​ Las vacantes se cubren por nombramiento interino del gobernador.​ Cuando ocurre una vacante, el gobernador, con el visto bueno del Senado, nombra un nuevo juez. Cada juez tiene un único voto para dilucidar los casos presentados ante el Tribunal. Cuando hay una mayoría de jueces sobre un asunto, el presidente del tribunal decide quién argumenta las conclusiones del Tribunal de Justicia; de lo contrario, el juez de mayor rango de la mayoría asigna la tarea de redactar la sentencia.​ La Corte tiene su sede en el edificio de la Corte Suprema en Little Rock (Arkansas). Membresía Actualmente hay siete jueces en la Corte Suprema: Presidente del Tribunal Supremo, Dan Kemp y seis jueces asociados.

1st Jackpot Casino Tunica

1st Jackpot Casino Tunica (formerly Bally's) is a casino and former hotel in Tunica Resorts, Mississippi. It is owned by Gaming and Leisure Properties and operated by Penn Entertainment. The casino has 46,535 square feet (4,323.2 m2) of gaming space, with 899 slot machines and 16 table games. History Bally's Saloon & Gambling Hall was originally opened on December 6, 1993, at Mhoon Landing by Bally Manufacturing. In 1994, Lady Luck Gaming opened its Olympia Hotel in Robinsonville, an area 10 miles north of Mhoon Landing which had emerged as a prime casino site because of its closer proximity to Memphis. Lady Luck began construction of a casino to accompany the hotel, but suspended it later that year because of financial difficulties. In February 1995, Bally and Lady Luck entered into a joint venture agreement, under which Bally would close its casino and move the barge upriver to dock at Lady Luck's hotel. Bally would own 58 percent of the combined venture and manage it, with Lady Luck and a local partner owning the rest. Bally's at Mhoon Landing closed on February 9. The casino reopened at its new location in Robinsonville (now Tunica Resorts) on December 18, 1995. Hilton Hotels acquired Bally in 1996 and then purchased Lady Luck's share of Bally's Tunica in 1997 for $15 million. Hilton's gaming division, including Bally's, was spun off in 1998 as Park Place Entertainment, later renamed as Caesars Entertainment. In 2004, Harrah's Entertainment agreed to purchase Caesars. The deal provoked antitrust concerns in some markets, including Tunica, where the combined company would own 5 out of the 9 casinos in the area. To ensure approval of the merger, Harrah's and Caesars agreed to sell four casinos, including Bally's Tunica and Harrah's Mardi Gras, to Colony Capital. The sale was completed in April 2005. The casino continued using the Bally's name under a licensing agreement. The two properties became part of Resorts International Holdings, a newly formed affiliate of Colony Capital. In 2011, facing a threat of foreclosure, Resorts International Holdings agreed to hand over ownership of Bally's Tunica and Resorts Tunica (formerly Harrah's) to lenders. Foundation Gaming Group, a company based in Gulfport, was retained to manage the two properties. In January 2014, RIH Acquisitions MS II assumed the management of Bally's Tunica and Resorts Tunica. In May 2017, Bally's and Resorts Tunica were sold in a joint deal, with Gaming & Leisure Properties acquiring their real estate assets for a total of $83 million, and Penn National Gaming (now Penn Entertainment) purchasing the operating assets for a total of $44 million. The casino was renamed in September 2017 to 1st Jackpot Casino Tunica. The hotel was later demolished. See also List of casinos in Mississippi References External links 1st Jackpot Casino Tunica
Barnhill Arena

Barnhill Arena is a 10,000-seat multipurpose arena in Fayetteville, Arkansas, now used primarily for volleyball. The arena opened in 1954 and was home to the University of Arkansas Razorbacks (men's) and (women's) basketball teams before they moved to Bud Walton Arena in 1993. Prior to that, the arena had been considered to be one of the toughest to play in, first in the Southwest Conference and then in the Southeastern Conference, especially when Nolan Richardson and Eddie Sutton were coaches; it earned the nickname "Barnhell Arena" because of its rabid student section. After the opening of the new arena, the university converted Barnhill Arena into a volleyball and gymnastics-specific facility, and the Ladybacks' volleyball and gymnastics teams have played there ever since. The arena is also occasionally used for special events, such as concerts, graduations, and speakers. It was originally built as the Arkansas Fieldhouse and renamed in 1973 in honor of John Barnhill, the school's former head football coach and athletic director. The arena is just southeast of Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium. Barnhill housed the locker room for Arkansas' football team until a new complex was built in the north end zone. The architects of the building were Haralson & Mott of Fort Smith. References

Baxter County Courthouse

The Baxter County Courthouse is a courthouse in Mountain Home, Arkansas, United States, the county seat of Baxter County, built in 1941. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995. The building replaced another courthouse on the same site which was deemed unsafe in 1939. History Baxter County was established on March 24, 1873 by the Arkansas General Assembly from parts of four neighboring counties. The county seat was established at Mountain Home, which was a community atop a plateau between the North Fork River and White River. County government initially inhabited the Jacob Wolf House in Norfork. Today, the structure is the oldest standing county courthouse in Arkansas, built in 1811. Building the courthouse County Judge R. M. Ruthven declared the county courthouse to be unsafe and too small for county needs in 1939. Ruthven was instrumental in the construction of the Cotter Bridge in Baxter County which opened the area to commerce in 1928. The courthouse was expanded from two to three stories as a method to keep the county seat in Mountain Home in response to a 1912 state law which kept county seats from moving out of three story buildings. Ruthven acquired the services of T. Ewing Shelton, an architect from Fayetteville, Arkansas to draft plans for a new courthouse. The plans were received and approved by voters, despite protests by Gassville and Cotter residents who wanted the county seat relocated to their cities with greater populations. During the 1940s, Baxter County was very depressed economically and the Works Progress Administration (WPA) was active in the county. Mountain Home was a shrinking community with little industry and few paved roads. As a county, Baxter County saw many farmers abandon their farms and move away during the 1940s. Construction began on the Norfork Dam in 1941 and the Bull Shoals Dam in 1947. The courthouse project received state approval as a WPA project the following year and construction began after razing the old courthouse in August 1941. Opening The new building was unveiled for county courthouse functions in August 1943. It contained all county offices, a courtroom, office space to be rented to lawyers, and the county library. Today many offices have left the courthouse.

Bull Shoals Dam

Bull Shoals Dam is a concrete gravity dam on the White River in northern Arkansas in the United States. The dam lies on the border of Marion and Baxter Counties, and forms Bull Shoals Lake, which extends well northwest into Missouri. Its main purposes are hydroelectricity production and flood control. The dam was built by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in response to severe flooding between 1915 and 1927. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt authorized the construction of the dam as well as six others on the White River and its tributaries in the Flood Control Act of 1938. Construction started in June 1947 and the dam was completed in July 1951 at an estimated cost of $86 million (which translates to approximately $710 million in 2009 when adjusted for inflation). When finished, the dam was one of the largest concrete structures in the world. From its completion until 2009, it is estimated that the dam has prevented about $225.5 million in flood damages below the dam. References
Barrage de Bull Shoals

Le barrage de Bull Shoals est un barrage poids installé sur la White river dans le Nord de l'Arkansas aux États-Unis. Le barrage est situé à la frontière entre les comtés de Marionet et de Baxter, et forme le Lac Bull Shoals (en), qui s'étend largement au nord ouest du Missouri. Son objectif principal est la production d'hydro-électricité et la prévention des inondations. Le barrage a été construit par le corps du génie de l'US Army en réponse aux inondations catastrophiques qui ont eu lieu entre 1915 et 1927. Le président Franklin Delano Roosevelt autorisa la construction de ce barrage ainsi que de 6 autres situés sur la White River lors de la signature du Flood Control Act de 1938 (en). La construction débuta en juin 1947 et se termina en juillet 1951. Il fut inauguré le président Harry S. Truman le 2 juillet 1952. Lors de l'achèvement de la construction, ce barrage était l'une des plus grandes structures en béton du monde[réf. nécessaire]. De sa construction jusqu'en 2009, on estime que le barrage a permis d'éviter environ 225.5 millions de dollars de dommages causés par des inondations.
