The City of Waveland is starting the process of revamping the Highway 90 corridor.

The City of Waveland is directing its focus on revitalizing and redeveloping the Highway 90 corridor. Mayor Mike Smith said, We want you to slow down. Maybe you see something you want; you stop and you shop locally. Thats what we want. So, its really important that we update the corridor and deal with some dilapidated buildings.

Mayor Smith says through an online survey more than 450 residents weighed in on what they would like to see come of the two-and-a-half mile stretch from lower Bay Road to Bay St. Louis. Overall, respondents said they want the area updated and the run-down properties cleaned up.

The project is happening with the help of Orion Planning and Design. Orion Planning and Design Partner Bob Barber said, Were conceptualizing now and those concepts include paths and pedestrian connections that will integrate the corridor into other parts of Waveland, even trying to get it properly connected to the waterfront.

Barber says Highway 90 in Waveland is full of potential and growth, even in areas where broken down buildings and lots sit. You look at that and you see lots of challenges, but theres tons of opportunity with that. You have an opportunity to recreate that space and place and do it in a better way than it has been in the past and that it is now. Thats opportunity to us. When we point out some of the challenges in the corridor, we flip it immediately and whats the upside opportunity there and theres lot there.

14 things to do in Toronto this week: December 13 to 19 | Listed - Daily Hive

In addition to celebrating her big win on the Food Networks Halloween Baking Championship, Waveland resident Renee Loranger last week opened Sugar Pop Baking Co.

The California native moved to Waveland in 2000.

Loranger said baking wasnt her first choice of career.

I actually wanted to be an actress, she said. But I kind of fell into the job of baking and I just really liked it and picked it up really fast. It was a way for me to still be artistic. So I stuck with it and mostly self-taught. If I want to learn it, I look it up and figure out how to do it.

Loranger said she began baking in California at grocery stores. When she moved to Waveland, she started working at Casino Magic now Hollywood Casino and built its baking program.

After Hurricane Katrina, the bakery program was closed and Loranger returned as a restaurant manager.

However, in 2010, the program was reinstated and Loranger worked as a pastry chef and then promoted to executive pastry chef in 2012.

Loranger described working at the casino as hectic.

Its very busy and very fast-paced, she said. The grocery store was, too, and its good practice for this (Sugar Pop).

For season six of Food Networks Halloween Baking Competition, Loranger said, she kept an eye on the networks casting program.

She won second place that year.

For the seventh season, Loranger said, the network asked her back.

She said that she always wanted to be featured on one of the Food Networks baking shows.

Id love to host my own show, Loranger said. I love being on camera and I do not mind being the center of attention.

The series has a pre-heat and main heat phase, the thriller challenge and the killer challenge, Loranger said.

For the thriller challenge, participants made a smaller treat, she said. For the killer challenge, it was something larger.

A participant was eliminated each week, she said, by the judges who are Carla Hall, Zac Young, and Stephanie Boswell. John Henson is the host.

The first time Loranger appeared on the show, she took home second place.

During her last appearance, she took home the $25,000 prize.

For the final challenge, participants were tasked with making a 24-inch stacked, tiered cake in five hours, she said.

The flavor Loranger chose was devils food cake with a sour cherry filling, hazelnut buttercream, and a hazelnut crunch.

The show was based on camp killer films from the 1980s, she said. The designs of the cakes were meant to take a look inside the mind of the killers.

They had to tell that story as you looked at the cake, Loranger said. And it had to have a brain on top, an exposed brain on top.

Lorangers cake took home the $25,000 grand prize, which gave her the jumpstart she needed to open her own bakery.

Loranger said she always wanted to branch out on her own and do my own thing.

When COVID-19 began, Loranger said, she was laid off from her job at the casino.

So theres just no other time to do it, she said. I had to figure it out. So, I was baking at home for quite a while.

But after she saw the location, she thought it would be a good idea to utilize the kitchen and space inside Wavelands LiLi Stahler-Murphy Ground Zero Hurricane Museum, located at 335 Coleman Ave.

I just love this building, she said.Its got so much history. Everybody that comes in, they remember being here and watching somebody on the stage or being on the stage themselves or they know somebody that came here and went to the school.

Loranger opened the bakerys doors on Oct. 25 and she said she hopes that it will help bring more traffic to the area.

I really hope that it brings more business to Coleman Avenue, Loranger said. I think that Coleman really needs to be brought back to life and I hope to be a part of that.

Sugar Pops menu includes a variety of daily baked fresh items such as muffins, turnovers, danish, cookies, cakes, cupcakes, eclairs, and more. There is also a pastry of the day as well as packaged items for the holiday.

She said some of the current customer favorite selections include the orange cranberry muffins, the cinnamon pecan muffins, the danish, and her winning devils food cake.

Right now, the bakerys hours are Monday through Saturday from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Lorangers husband Darren also helps out at the bakery. The pair have a son and a daughter.

Loranger said she does take special orders such as cakes and cookies. People can order online or order in-person at the bakery, she said.

Sidney Louis Manix January 27, 1934 - November 20, 2021 Waveland, Mississippi - Sidney Louis Manix, 87, went to be with the Lord November 20, 2021. Sid was born on January 27, 1934 in New Orleans, LA and was raised in the Irish Channel. He lived directly across the street from Kingsley House where he learned great skills in carpentry and became an avid swimmer and a member of the Semi-Pro basketball team, the Whiz-Kids. At 18, he joined the United States Army and served honorably. Following the Army, he was a salvage diver with Taylor diving in New Orleans. He also worked as a member of the local 53 Asbestos Workers Union. He later worked for Brown and Root and Borg-Warner when he and his wife moved to South Mississippi. After retirement, he dabbled in real estate and light remodeling. Sid was an avid gardener, loved fishing and camping, but his greatest passion was serving the Lord with gladness! Through the years he served in ministry to the little ones in the nursery, Royal Rangers, Awana, and Sunday School. He also served as Trustee, Deacon, and in Mens ministries as well. The toughest one, yet the one he was so passionate about was the prison ministry, both in South Mississippi and Tennessee following hurricane Katrina. Sidney was preceded in death by his parents Elvin and Mary Elizabeth Manix and four sibling, Elvin "Pat", Elizabeth, Rita and Maurice "Mo". He is survived by his loving wife Barbara; and his four children, Randy Manix, Krisste Polisher, Erin Manix, and Matthew Manix (Kelly).

Riemann Family Funeral Home, 141 Hwy 90, Waveland is serving the family. An online guestbook may be signed at http://www.riemannfamily.com. The family wishes to extend their gratitude to St. Joseph Hospice for such loving care and compassion and to Reimann Family Funeral Home.

Wrigleyville Transforms Into Winter Wonderland With 19 Holiday-Themed Pop-Ups - Block Club Chicago

Just a reminder that the minor league phase of the Rule 5 Draft is today at 1pm CT. Its something!

This is about as Cubs-player-does-Cubs-baseball content as it is going to get right now new Cubs outfielder Clint Frazier hitting electronic bombs at a digital Wrigley Field:

I know its just batting practice, but Im still laughing at the distances on virtually every one of those swings. Hes still hitting it 380+ just about every time on swings 80 through 100. To that point, Ill actually drop a serious note: Fraziers swing clearly delivers a great launch angle in the video, which is how hes hitting it 400 feet even when he doesnt go way over 100 mph in exit velocity. I wonder about the relationship to his big strikeout rates, and if hes struck that right balance just yet.

That, in turn, makes me start thinking about Patrick Wisdoms swing, which is a launch angle swing if youve ever seen one, complete with the enormous hole at the top of the zone. Is there a comp there, given the power and the strikeouts? Nope! That comp definitely doesnt play when you start looking at the data: Wisdoms hole is at the top of the zone (and enormous), but Fraziers is at the bottom of the zone (and more modest); Wisdom is near the top of the league in steepest average launch angle, but Frazier is more middle of the pack; Wisdoms average exit velocity is top 50, Fraziers is more middle-of-the pack; Wisdom contact rates are basically the lowest in baseball, Fraziers are merely below average. I saw a powerful righty with a big strikeout rate who was hitting launch angle bombs and wondered about a comp, but theres nothing there in the data to support it. Thats why we check! (At a superficial level, Im actually seeing a little more Ian Happ in the data, if were going to force a Cubs comp. But well just leave it alone for now.)

More fun with Frazier, who is going to be a cult hero among Cubs fans before the season even starts:

Frazier is going to have the longest hair and the biggest beard by April . I mostly joke around with this stuff, but you do wonder to what extent player comfort can impact development and performance at the margins. I know nothing at all about the man other than whats been written publicly, and I know that injury issues are definitely the bigger hurdle. But you just wonder if he was never quite comfortable with the Yankees, and whether that impacted things. This is a guy who was a tip-top prospect when he arrived in New York.

Given how wild the two weeks were before the lockout began, were going to see an increasing push for MLB to institute some kind of artificial transaction deadline in the years ahead, in an attempt to recreate that blitz of activity and attention:

Baseball, as an industry, needs to make this a baked-in feature of its offseason. The stir it created over that two-week period, especially in the days leading up to the lockout, came despite the fact that no one was really quite prepared for it to happen. Oh, there was some foreshadowing, as reporters such as ESPNs Jeff Passan told us that there could be heavy movement in free agency before the expiration of the CBA. Still, seeing that actually come to pass was equal parts stunning, exhilarating and exhausting.

Now, imagine what it would be like if we actually knew there was going to be a spate of activity like that every November and/or December? Like the trade deadline, only way better. MLB could promote it. Media outlets could cover the heck out of it both in advance and while its unfolding. Teams could arrange access accordingly. Such a period would very soon become one of the favorite times of the year on the baseball calendar.

For the most part, I agree with the broad points: for as much as I like the slow burn of the MLB offseason, its hard to deny that condensing the activity and the attention at a national level is good for the sport and good for a large swath of fans. The excitement of a looming deadline its kinda hard to beat. The logistics are where it gets tricky: when is the cutoff, and how do you prevent teams from simply using it to pressure players into lesser deals? And how do you re-open transactions later in the offseason to allow guys who couldnt get deals early on to find deals eventually? And if there is a re-opening at some point, might things look pretty typical, except with a big gap in activity in the middle? (Keep in mind: the reason it works for the NBA is not because there is a deadline, it is because there is a salary cap. The extreme urgency is organic, and in a way that baseball will not be implementing any time soon.)

Basically, what Doolittle suggests is a three-week period from mid-November through the first week of December or right at the end of the Winter Meetings, and then you have a signing moratorium until about February 1 (in other words, a whole lot like what this offseason might look like). You could build in mechanisms for trades during the moratorium, as well as minor league signings. Its certainly an interesting setup. I doubt anything like this is seriously discussed at a CBA level this time around, so it would be years before we could see anything like it, and again, the players would have reasons to be dubious about any kind of artificial deadline. Just something to mull, for now, only for fun.
