SUMMARY: The content discusses the negative impacts of social media on mental health. It highlights how the constant comparison and validation seeking on social media platforms can lead to feelings of inadequacy, anxiety, and depression. The pressure to present a perfect image and the fear of missing out also contribute to mental health issues. The content suggests strategies to mitigate these negative effects, such as limiting screen time, curating a positive social media feed, and seeking professional help when needed. Overall, it emphasizes the importance of being mindful of the impact of social media on mental well-being and taking steps to protect one’s mental health while using these platforms.

The Madison Central Jaguars will have a battle of the last two 6A state champions on Friday night in the North State Final.

The Jaguars won it all in 2021 and Starkville, their opponents, won the state title last year. Madison Central’s defense has been stout all year and they’ll need a big performance, not only on defense but all three phases in order to dethrone the champs.

SUMMARY: Maran County has introduced new thermal imaging cameras to enhance firefighting efforts. These devices, resembling smartphones, utilize infrared technology to detect temperature variations, helping firefighters locate people and objects in low visibility situations. Each fire engine will be equipped with one of these cameras, which aids in identifying hot spots, preventing disorientation, and improving overall safety during operations. Training was recently conducted for 21 firefighters, who successfully used the cameras to extinguish a fire from a dryer lint build-up. The cameras cost around $500 to $600 each, funded by community donations, as the volunteer departments require affordable equipment.
