SUMMARY: MDOT officials in Mississippi are urging motorists to drive safely during the upcoming solar eclipse on April 8. The eclipse is expected to peak just before 2:00 p.m., with the moon blocking a large portion of the sun's light. Drivers are advised not to stop along the interstate to view the eclipse, exit the highway to a safe location, not take photos while driving, and be cautious of pedestrians. Additionally, drivers should expect extra congestion on the roads and should avoid travel during the eclipse or in areas along the main path if possible.

County has no deed for Graceland; Elvis Presley’s family calls sale ‘a scam’
SUMMARY: Claims that Elvis Presley's Graceland estate is up for foreclosure over a $3.8 million debt are fraudulent, according to family members and Graceland representatives.
