Supreme Court runoff showcases differing constitutional perspective of candidates
SUMMARY: Incumbent Mississippi Supreme Court Justice Jim Kitchens faces a runoff against state Sen. Jenifer Branning after a contentious election where Branning received 41.8% of the vote compared to Kitchens’ 35.6%. Branning, a Republican with 20 years of legal experience, emphasizes constitutional conservatism and fair rulings. Contrarily, Kitchens, seeking his third term, stresses a nonpartisan approach and the adaptability of the constitution. Both candidates highlight their qualifications, with Kitchens’ extensive judiciary experience contrasting Branning’s legislative background. They agree on the significance of voter turnout as the election approaches on November 26.

AMR equipping ambulances with AI technology aimed at curbing accidents
SUMMARY: American Medical Response (AMR) ambulances in central Mississippi have started using AI-powered dash cameras to enhance safety. These cameras act as always-alert co-pilots, scanning roads and vehicle cabins to detect risks like sudden lane intrusions. When a hazard is detected, the system gives an audio alert, helping drivers react faster. This technology improves situational awareness amid heavy traffic, distracted drivers, and bad weather. Early tests show it eliminated 100% of near-collisions and reduced on-road risks by 60% in three months. Installation on all AMR vehicles in the region is ongoing and expected to finish this summer.

‘No red flags’: Chris Beard remains hopeful French guard can soon arrive at Ole Miss
SUMMARY: The Ole Miss basketball team has been active with team-building and workouts, but new French guard Ilias Kamardine has yet to arrive due to visa and eligibility delays. Coach Chris Beard explained that processing of I-20 forms, necessary for nonimmigrant student status, has been slow following a temporary pause on visa appointments affecting international students. Beard remains optimistic that these issues will be resolved well before the 2026-27 season starts. Kamardine, a 6-foot-5 athletic guard who starred in France and led his team to a U20 Eurobasket title, will undergo a catch-up process once he joins the team. Meanwhile, the roster is being revamped with numerous transfers and newcomers alongside returning players Malik Dia and Eduardo Klafke.
