Making New Holiday Memories With Old Movies
SUMMARY: Thanksgiving has passed, and excitement for Christmas is rising. A cherished part of American childhood, the season is synonymous with school breaks, gifts, and classics such as Nativity plays. Adding to the tradition, families now bond over Christmas movie nights, quoting favorites like “Elf,” “A Christmas Story,” and “Home Alone.” Yet, the article suggests exploring timeless classics like “It’s a Wonderful Life” or the original “Miracle on 34th Street” for their life lessons. For the tech-savvy generation, colorized or remade versions might be more appealing. Online resources can guide families to select suitable films for a memorable holiday movie night.

SUMMARY: Mississippi State’s Fred Carl Jr. Small Town Center and the Gulf Coast Community Design Studio were named among 54 national finalists at the 19th International Architecture Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia.

SUMMARY: Spring is here in Mississippi, prompting many to venture out on the state’s waterways. Before heading out, it’s crucial to review boater safety skills. Those born after June 30, 1980, must complete a state-accredited boater safety course, which covers vital topics like water safety and navigation rules. The Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks (MDWFP) offers the course online or in person, with various locations available year-round. Successful completion may also help reduce insurance premiums. For more information, contact MDWFP or check their website. Enjoy the beautiful weather, but prioritize safety on the water!
