Three Teens Killed in Spring Break Crash

A single-vehicle crash in Florida during spring break killed three high schoolers from Horizon Christian Academy in Cumming and left a fourth critically injured.

The wreck occurred Monday in Franklin County, Florida, when the car carrying the teens reportedly left the roadway and struck a tree before catching fire.

The teens who lost their lives were an 18-year-old boy from Alpharetta, and 17- and 16-year-old girls from Cumming. A 17-year-old girl from Alpharetta was transported to a hospital in critical condition.

Masters Blooms Add to Showcase

The azaleas and dogwoods at Augusta National Golf Club are in near peak form this week, providing a stunning backdrop at the Masters Tournament.

Grounds crews have spent months cultivating the blooms that define the tournament's visual identity. Overall, the course features more than 350 plant species.

Golf course designers say Augusta National sets the gold standard because of its near-perfect conditions, achieved through massive resources, meticulous agronomy, and unique practices.

Celebrity Jet Rolls into Port

A Boeing 707 once owned by Frank Sinatra and later by John Travolta arrived at the Port of Brunswick this week.

You can see photos of the plane during transport on the road and at the port here.

Stray Gunfire Hits Homes

Pima County is working to curb illegal gunfire from state trust land hitting homes, as residents report frequent weekend shootings and push for stronger enforcement.

Officials say the shooting is coming from land behind homes near Valencia and Vahalla roads, where jurisdictional challenges have slowed response despite repeated 911 calls.

In some incidents, bullets have pierced homes and vehicles, forcing families indoors and raising fears of serious injury.

The concerns follow an October incident in Marana where a bullet from police target practice struck a playground, leading to the supervising sergeant’s indictment.

Burgum Urges Water 'Sacrifices'

Interior Secretary Doug Burgum said Arizona and other Colorado River Basin states must make “sacrifices” as they negotiate how to divide a shrinking water supply.

His comments come after governors from the basin states have thus far failed to reach a deal on future water use, with Arizona potentially facing disproportionate cuts under current rules.

Burgum warned that low spring runoff is adding pressure, saying an agreement will “require everybody to dig in and take bigger cuts than they want.”

If no deal is reached, federal officials could step in to impose a plan, raising the likelihood of legal battles over water rights.

Scottsdale Among Healthiest

Scottsdale ranks as the 10th healthiest U.S. city in a WalletHub study evaluating more than 180 communities across dozens of health metrics.

Phoenix and Tempe also placed in the top 50 in the study that analyzed health care, food, fitness, green space, and dozens of other categories.

Scottsdale led nationally in the fitness category, based on exercise rates and access to gyms and wellness facilities.

Earlier this year, Scottsdale was named one of the happiest cities in the U.S.

One Day Left to Invest in the ‘Nvidia of Energy’ at $7.77/share

Nvidia’s valuation surged by 1,092% in just three years when it became the backbone of AI. But AI has a massive energy problem Nvidia can’t fix.

As AI data centers begin consuming more power than entire nations like Sweden or Argentina, Frontieras North America’s patented technology reforms coal into high-value commodities like hydrogen and diesel without burning it. It creates a technical carbon to replace coal that burns as clean as natural gas. Under a White House that favors energy production on our home soil, it could unlock up to $2.1 Trillion in energy potential.

Here’s why you shouldn’t miss this last chance to invest at $7.77/share:

“FASF” ticker reserved on the NASDAQ
$850M flagship facility in development
$20 million raised from investors so far

The Next $435B Energy Empire Is Being Minted

In today’s dollars, John D. Rockefeller would be worth $435 billion. But “oil money” is old news, and what’s next might surprise investors in 2026: a $2.1 Trillion opportunity in “clean” coal.

Now is the “Rockefeller” moment for Frontieras as they reform coal into hydrogen, diesel and other valuable commodities (just like Rockefeller did with oil). With a White House that favors domestic energy, the NASDAQ ticker FASF reserved, and land officially purchased for their flagship coal reformation plant, Frontieras is positioned for potential valuation impact.

You have until April 9 at 11:59 PM PT to invest in Frontieras at $7.77/share.*

This is a paid advertisement for Frontieras’s Regulation A offering. Please read the offering circular at https://invest.frontieras.com/ Reservation of the ticker symbol is not a guarantee that we will be listed on the NASDAQ. Listing on the NASDAQ is subject to approvals. Under Regulation A+, a company has the ability to change its share price by up to 20%, without requalifying the offering with the SEC.
