Kimbal Musk is on a mission to bring clean and good food to kids and families across the country. That is why he joins Cheddar to make some big announcement about his non-profit.
Big Green is now a national non-profit servicing cities across the country. The next city Musk will travel to is Detroit. The plan is to build 100 Learning Gardens in schools across the city. The plan will cost around $5 million and will be the first leg of Musk's goal to build 1,000 more Learning Gardens in new cities by 2020.
Musk says Big Green has perfected growing the gardens at scale. The architecture of each garden is the same, making management and infrastructure easy to replicate and monitor. Musk explains that 6 to 7 people can manage all 100 gardens and schools in a city.
And Musk welcomes more competition as Big Green is not a for-profit endeavor. Musk explains, "Competitors mean more impact...and we need all the help we can get."
The impact has been huge for communities and students. Musk says he regularly gets emails from parents of Learning Garden kids who have demanded kale and the parents don't know what kale is. For him, this is an example of education starting with kids and impacting whole families and communities.
At 100 years old, the Goodyear Blimp is an ageless star in the sky. The 246-foot-long airship will be in the background of the Daytona 500 — flying roughly 1,500 feet above Daytona International Speedway, actually — to celebrate its greatest anniversary tour. Even though remote camera technologies are improving regularly and changing the landscape of aerial footage, the blimp continues to carve out a niche. At Daytona, with the usual 40-car field racing around a 2½-mile superspeedway, views from the blimp aptly provide the scope of the event.
You'll just have to wait for interest rates (and prices) to go down. Plus, this deal's a steel, the big carmaker wedding is off, and bribery is back, baby!
It’s a chicken-and-egg problem: Restaurants are struggling with record-high U.S. egg prices, but their omelets, scrambles and huevos rancheros may be part of the problem. Breakfast is booming at U.S. eateries. First Watch, a restaurant chain that serves breakfast, brunch and lunch, nearly quadrupled its locations over the past decade to 570. Fast-food chains like Starbucks and Wendy's added more egg-filled breakfast items. In normal times, egg producers could meet the demand. But a bird flu outbreak that has forced them to slaughter their flocks is making supplies scarcer and pushing up prices. Some restaurants like Waffle House have added a surcharge to offset their costs.

The Trump administration has ordered the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to stop nearly all its work, effectively shutting down the agency that was created to protect consumers after the 2008 financial crisis and subprime mortgage-lending scandal. Russell Vought is the newly installed director of the Office of Management and Budget. Vought directed the CFPB in a Saturday night email to stop work on proposed rules, to suspend the effective dates on any rules that were finalized but not yet effective, and to stop investigative work and not begin any new investigations. The agency has been a target of conservatives since President Barack Obama created it following the 2007-2008 financial crisis.
