The Florida Senate has overwhelmingly passed a measure allowing doctors to treat patients with smokeable medical marijuana, if a doctor decides it's the proper course of treatment. Under the measure, patients would be allowed to purchase up to 2.5 ounces of pot during a 35 day period, and would be able to possess up to 4 ounces. The measure now goes to the house next week

America Is Cutting the Cord

  • The rate of cord-cutting, or ditching your pay-tv provider, has nearly doubled between 2017 and 2018, with 2.8 million Americans cutting the cord in 2018 alone, according to Leichtman Research.
  • Most of those Americans left satellite TV; 2.3 Americans decided to lose satellite in 2018.  DIRECTV took a major hit last year, losing 1.2 million customers alone.  Cable television also saw big losses, losing 910,000 customers in 2018, much larger than the loss of 680,000 losses in 2017.
  • Television delivered by the internet, however, did see gains.  SlingTV and DIRECTV NOW signed up 640,000 customers in 2018.
  • Leichtman Research reports that pay-TV has been on the decline since 2012, citing that over 6 million Americans have cut the cord since then, as Americans look for better deals and variety through services like Netflix and Hulu.

Nutritionists Rank Best Candy Bars

  • Usually, candy rankings are based on taste. This ranking of candy bars is based on what better for you to eat.
  • Three nutritionists were asked to rank the top-selling candy bars in order of the healthiest. Each person came up with a different top choice.
  • One nutritionist chose Snickers as her healthiest based on the lowest amount of saturated fat. Snickers do carry a lot of sugar so the recommendation was to make it your sweet treat of the day.
  • Another nutritionist picked the Hershey bar as least offensive. It had the "most pure" ingredients with milk chocolate and not much else. The third nutritionist picked Reese's Sticks for the small level of saturated fat. So, there was no consensus.

Wanted: Escapee Accused of Stealing 612 Pairs of Panties

  • A Houston man is wanted after fleeing a courtroom where he was being accused of stealing 612 pairs of panties.
  • Efrain Gutierrez escaped last month and is still on the run, he stole $10,000 worth panties for Victoria Secret last July.
  • Gutierrez faces felony theft, escape, evading arrest and possession of a controlled substance. Houston police are offering a reward of up to $5,000 for tips leading to his arrest.
  • Gutierrez is 5'8, 190 lbs. with brown eyes, short black hair and tattoos covering his chest and arms.
