His family has been by his side in the hospital with leaving their 2,000 acres of farmland unattended. Last Saturday 100 people in the community got together and had their equipment ready at 6:30 a.m. to do a few weeks of farm work for this family.

  4. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world. ALthough it is the most popular some children don't have the money or resources for soccer balls. Children improvise with "rag balls". John and Lisa have created a ball out of parts of highchairs and shoes to make an indestructible ball. If punctured the ball is not bothered and if ran over it goes flat and pops right back up.

  18. When our generation dies the funeral fashion may change. Swiss company, Algordanza, takes the cremated ashes of a loved one and turns them into a diamond used for jewelry or simply kept in a collection. They extract the carbon from the ashes then it is heated and turned into graphite. The graphite is then heated to 2,700 F and has 870,000 pounds of pressure per square. This mimics a process deep inside Earth. The diamond ranges in color from white to a dark blue. The amount of Boron found in the ashes effects the color variation. Finally the diamond is cut and polished. Maybe we are now skipping the plain cremation or the traditional burial funeral and shooting for something a little more glamours?

  20. Twin sisters discover they are sister after 25 years of separation. Anais Bordier got a screen shot from her friend of a girl on youtube that looked exactly like her and she was curious about her. She messaged Samantha Futerman, (the twin sister int he youtube clip), and talked to her via facebook. They figured out they were born on the same day, around the same time, in the same hospital, and were both adopted in South Korea. After awhile they both figured out they were twins. They both were amazed at the power of the internet. If it weren't for the internet, they would have never known they had a twin sister.
