Today's news is all over the board. An interesting bill just passed through the US House.

Florida man strikes! In a headline that could only come from our great state, a man is accused of attacking a jogger with a sword over who gets to take a wheelbarrow from somebodies yard. They both supposedly saw it lying in a pile of trash, except the guy with a sword said he saw it first. The jogger used his powerful jogging legs to jog the wheelbarrow away from the blade wielding man who pursued. I guess at some point the warrior gave up, because the story ends with a woman taking her wheelbarrow back from the jogger's yard.
