Mysterious ice chunk that crashed through roof was not from a plane: FAA
SUMMARY: The FAA has ruled out the possibility that a mysterious six-foot ice chunk, which crashed through a roof in Flagler County, came from an airplane. Initial theories suggested it might have formed from plane bathroom leaks at high altitudes, but inspections found no evidence of such leaks in the planes that flew over the area. Neighbors remain skeptical, with some speculating about extraterrestrial involvement or weather phenomena. Aviation experts indicate that the ice could have originated from an airplane descending through an icing layer, potentially even on a warm day. Thankfully, no one was injured in the incident.
The FAA says there’s no evidence that the ice chunk that crashed into a Central Florida home in February came from an aircraft.

How else could Iran retaliate over the ongoing Israeli strikes targeting the country?
SUMMARY: As Israel conducts airstrikes on Iran’s military and nuclear sites, Tehran proposes retaliatory options beyond missile attacks, echoing past strategies. These include disrupting shipping through the Strait of Hormuz—a critical global oil route—potentially causing energy market shocks. Iran could also withdraw from the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty, abandoning IAEA oversight and escalating nuclear efforts, risking U.S. intervention. Additionally, Iran might increase asymmetric attacks via allied militant groups targeting Israeli interests, although these proxies have weakened recently. These responses carry significant risks, potentially destabilizing the Middle East and global markets, while Iran seeks to avoid direct conflict with the U.S.

Florida children sentenced to prison as adults, now advocating against using solitary confinement
SUMMARY: In Florida, children as young as 12 have been sentenced to adult prison, where many endure solitary confinement, causing severe mental trauma. Ian Manual, sentenced at 13 and later released after a Supreme Court ruling, now advocates against such treatment, sharing his painful experience of isolation. The Florida Department of Corrections calls solitary confinement “close management,” claiming it’s used only for safety concerns, but advocacy groups argue it constitutes child abuse as juveniles’ brains are still developing. Survivors like Catherine Jones, sentenced at 13 and confined for 16 years, emphasize the system’s failures and abuse endured. Efforts to ban youth solitary confinement continue amid ongoing investigations.
Ian Manuel, sentenced to life in prison in 1991 for attempted murder in a downtown Tampa botched robbery at 14 years old, is now sharing his story as an adult.
