So with all these trucks parked at Ottawa are there any reports of food shortages or the like because deliveries aren't being made?

A Chicago grandmother was rescued from a 17-hour hostage ordeal after police were alerted for the unlikeliest of reasons: a missing solution to the day's Wordle challenge.



Denyse Holt, 80, was alone at home in Illinois on 5 February when a naked and mentally ill suspect entered her home. According to Ms Holt, she was asleep in bed in Chicago's Lincolnwood area when 32-year-old James H. Davis III entered her home and pointed a pair of scissors at her. He was naked and bleeding after being cut by window shards while entering the house.



"I didn't think I was going to live," she told CBS. "I was in shock. I was trying to survive."



While Mr Davis told her he wouldn't harm her, he did force her - still wearing a nightgown - to take a warm bath with him before taking two knives from the kitchen, disconnecting phones, and locking her in a cold basement bathroom.



Across the country in Seattle, Ms Holt's daughter, Meredith Holt-Caldwell, soon noticed that her mother wasn't responding to text messages and hadn't sent in her Wordle, a popular daily word puzzle. "That was disconcerting to her," Ms Holt said, because her daughter knew that this was a routine she never missed.



Alarmed, Ms Holt-Caldwell alerted police, who conducted a well-being check at her home on 6 February. A stand-off with Mr Davis ensued, ending only when a police SWAT team used a stun gun to subdue him and take him into custody. Police say that Mr Davis now faces a range of felony charges, including home invasion with a deadly weapon, aggravated kidnapping, and assault against a peace officer, a term that includes police and probation officers, prison guards and other law enforcement officials.



Ms Holt was unharmed during the incident.

The inventor sold it to the New York Times for "an amount in the low seven figures".

We should think up a game and sell it. Seven figures buys a lot of Cashews   ac_smile

A pizza delivery driver had an attempted robber point a gun at him and demanded his car. But the driver wasn't about to become a victim — and had a different kind of delivery up his sleeve. The delivery driver pulled out his own gun and fired multiple rounds at the suspected carjacker. The 23-year-old suspect was taken to a hospital by a private vehicle and placed in extremely critical condition. :thumbup:




I always love some good news to start my day  :thumbup1:

America can be likened to the Titanic, and the election of Trump was the iceberg it had been looking for.

Hunter Biden made a lot of money off of Ukraine. Does Jim Crow Joe need to protect his cokehead son's interests.

At first it was one shot and you were vaccinated. Then it was two shots and you were "fully vaccinated". Then you weren't considered fully vaccinated unless you had a booster. Now they're talking about another booster and possibly another one after that. It's getting so confusing that they're now starting to say "Up to date" instead of how many shots you need to be fully vaccinated. Makes me wonder if the people reported as 'unvaccinated' had a couple of jabs but not all the ones needed to be considered current.
