SUMMARY: The Biloxi Shuckers’ home stadium has been officially renamed Keesler Federal Park after Keesler Federal Credit Union secured the naming rights with a $150,000 per year offer for five years, which was $25,000 more than Biloxi’s target. Keesler’s bid was notably higher than Shuckers Baseball, LLC’s $90,000 yearly proposal for a decade. As Mississippi Braves plan to relocate post-season, the Shuckers will become Mississippi’s only minor league team. Keesler will benefit from prominent signage at the stadium entrances and atop the scoreboard early in the 2024 MiLB season. (Photo courtesy of the MiLB).

SUMMARY: Mississippi police are warning about a holiday scam called “brushing,” which is becoming more prevalent as package deliveries rise in December. This scam involves recipients receiving unexpected packages accompanied by a QR code that claims to reveal the sender’s identity. Scanning this QR code can compromise personal information, leading to potential theft. Victims may receive items with little to no information about the sender, including claims related to Amazon. Officials advise against scanning any unfamiliar QR codes and recommend reporting such packages. Awareness is key to protecting personal data this holiday season, according to police.

SUMMARY: As the government shutdown deadline approached, the Senate passed a bipartisan bill early Saturday to temporarily fund federal operations and disaster aid, excluding President-elect Donald Trump’s debt ceiling demands. The House overwhelmingly approved the bill, which funds the government through March 14 and includes disaster assistance. Trump had insisted on a debt ceiling increase, threatening a shutdown, but GOP leadership opted for a compromise with Democrats. The outcome raises questions about House Speaker Mike Johnson’s future amidst GOP dissent. President Joe Biden is expected to sign the bill, averting a shutdown that could affect millions, especially during the holiday season.
