Menge Avenue Interchange Update
SUMMARY: Construction on the M Avenue interchange has been ongoing for 10 months, with significant progress being made. The Ming Avenue overpass appears to be nearly finished, but there is still work to be done before it can be opened to traffic in the fall. Contractors are currently tying rebar for the bridge and will soon begin pouring concrete. The overpass is set to be completed in August, but other infrastructure improvements in the area will continue. Once roadways are finished, motorists will be allowed to use traditional ramp systems. Other developments in the area, such as Buckes laying their foundation, indicate ongoing construction activities along M Avenue.

WLOX Digital Desk with Hugh Keeton (05/08/2024)
SUMMARY: This content discusses the benefits of meditation for reducing stress and anxiety. Meditation can help regulate emotions, improve concentration, and enhance overall well-being. It activates the body's relaxation response, reducing the production of stress hormones and lowering blood pressure. Regular meditation practice can rewire the brain to be more resilient to stress and increase cognitive function. Mindfulness meditation, in particular, encourages staying present and focusing on the moment, which can prevent rumination and negative thought patterns. Overall, meditation is a powerful tool for promoting mental health and emotional balance.

Expert Talk with The Window Source of the Gulf Coast, Cye Young
SUMMARY: Today on WXX Expert Talk, host Michelle Eubank welcomes S Young from The Window Source Gulf Coast to discuss the importance of having hurricane-resistant windows on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. S Young explains that homes in the area need to meet a design pressure of around dp50 to withstand 200 mph winds. Many homes still have old aluminum windows that do not meet this standard. The Window Source Gulf Coast offers specials on new windows, including impact glass and hurricane-resistant options like fabric shield or hurricane shutters. Homeowners can contact them for more information or visit their website for financing options.
