There's a viral status going around Facebook right now saying that Facebook is arbitrarily blocking newsfeeds, and only showing you the one's of it's choosing. Here's the status message being pasted along:

"Facebook is blocking all your friends news feeds except the 250 they choose! To undo: from HOME page, select NEWS FEED and scroll to bottom of page, click "Edit Options" (to the right side) ~ (left side is "older posts). Select NEWS FEED SETTINGS. reset 250 to 5000 (FaceBook's max. friends)"

Here's a step by step tutorial on how to do this:

To the top left of your screen, click where you see it highlighted in Blue below:

Next, to the bottom right of the page, Click on Edit Options:
News feeds being blocked on facebook
Finally, where you see the arrow pointing, it recommends changing to the maximum number of Facebook friends allowed, which is 5000. We'll leave this up to you which number to set it to however.
