Robert St. John says his restaurant business and travel business aren’t two businesses. They’re the same business. It’s all hospitality.
There’s a moment — right before the northern lights appear — when the sky looks like it’s deciding whether, or not, to show you something. Then it does, and you understand why you traveled 4,000 miles. Twenty-five Americans stood beside me in the snow. Nobody spoke. The northern lights don’t require commentary.

The bill’s author, State Rep. Shanda Yates, described the bill as a “great piece of legislation.” She said landlords not paying utility bills when part of a person’s rent is an issue across the Magnolia State.
Legislation to ensure utilities are paid that are included in a person’s rent or lease has cleared its final hurdle in the Mississippi Legislature and is now on its way to the governor’s desk.
The measure seeks to hold landlords criminally responsible for collecting utility fees but not paying the bill.

It’s that time of the week again for my weekly Southern Miss baseball report card, and this one comes with a bit more nuance than usual.
Southern Miss remained steady in the major polls, moving up to No. 11 in D1Baseball and No. 12 in Perfect Game. The Golden Eagles came in at No. 13 in the NCBWA and USA Today polls and No. 16 in Baseball America after a 3-1 week.
The Golden Eagles picked up a midweek win over Nicholls before taking two of three from Troy over the weekend at Pete Taylor Park. On paper, it looks like another strong week for Southern Miss.
