Mountain lion runs wild on streets of San Francisco
A chase for a wild mountain lion terrorizing locals on the streets of San Francisco ended with the feline being caught and carried to safety. Carter Evans has the story.

This was BIG and spotted tumbling from very high up in the sky towards the earth.
The object, about the size of a full size pickup truck, made no sound as it fell through the sky above the Bahamas.
It wasnβt a balloon and almost looked as if it were, at times, attempting to regain stability and fly. Once it appeared to accelerate then sputter again.
Truly an enigma!

Wheat exploded in price yesterday (limit up) after USDA forecast that over 8 million acres of HRW (Hard Red Wheat) will be abandoned in the Great Plains
That's 37% of planted acreage reported in the March Prospective Planting report, and means U.S. farmers this year will harvest their smallest wheat crop since 1972.
This comes on top of already record-low planted acreage heading into the season (lowest since 1919 in some metrics). Global supplies are tightening too.
Expect bread, pasta, baked goods, and processed foods to climb in the coming months β and pressure on livestock feed could push meat/dairy prices higher as well. This is another brick in the wall of rising food costs.
Grow your own food β that is the answer. Stock seeds, expand the garden, learn to preserve, and connect with local growers.

If the grid went down tonight, how long would you actually last?
No power. No internet. No working ATMs. No fuel pumps. No easy resupply.
Most people are prepared for inconvenience. Very few are prepared for a real disruption.
Water. Food. Light. Communications. Medical. Security.
You donβt need to panic. You need a plan.
Save this post. Send it to someone who needs to see it. Start preparing before everyone else realizes they should have.
