Former Meridian CEO returns to Hampton Roads marketing scene: ‘Retirement sucks’ (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Joe Takach, who co-founded the Meridian Group marketing and communications firm, has come out of retirement to launch a new venture: JT Marketing Advisors.

Decades after Mars landings, new book urges a closer look for evidence of life (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Fifty years ago, Viking 1 and 2 landed on Mars in search of life. Today, the results of those searches are demanding a closer look. At a symposium last week at William & Mary, Steven Benner discussed his new book, “Meet The Neighbors: Life on Mars and How to Find It.” He described how the uber-cautious scientific community backed away from the initial “life-affirmative” Viking test results in 1976 when another experiment seemed to counter those findings.

Inside Business Top Workplaces 2026: Giving back is a driving force (opens the original)
Read excerpt
TowneBank got its start in a two-car garage in Portsmouth, where Bob Aston Jr. and other founding organizers met over 1998 and 1999 to plan a community-focused bank.
