Florida

A lone kayaker had a close encounter with an alligator while fishing in the murky waters of a river in Florida. Daily Star reports: The man, armed with his fishing rod, was just paddling along in his boat enjoying the beautiful scenery when he caught the attention of a much larger animal. Catching the horrifying moment on a head-cam, the man clearly had no idea what was about to happen. Suddenly out of nowhere there was a violent splash in the water and an enormous alligator reared up into the air.

Today Janet Yellen and the FOMC will go back to square one and try to reset global expectations unleashed by the ill-fated December rate "policy mistake" hike, when at 2pm the Fed will announce assessment of the economy (even if not rate hike is expected today) followed by Yellen press conference half an hour later.

Well, it’s another "super" Tuesday, and that must mean Donald Trump is angling to move even closer to the GOP nomination, an outcome that’s horrified the establishment and seemed so remote just nine months ago as to be laughable.

But the only one laughing now is Trump, and boy, oh boy is he laughing hard.

The Ohio and Florida primaries are tomorrow, but the prospects of the respective “favorite sons” in these states couldn’t be more different. According to the most recent NBC and CBS News polls, Kasich is either leading by several points or tied with Trump for the lead in Ohio, while Rubio trails Trump by more than twenty points in Florida and in the CBS poll even falls behind Cruz into third place at 21%.
