Missing Crew

A yacht and its crew were reported missing Friday while on its route from the Caribbean to the United Kingdom. The 40 foot boat started taking on water and in the process lost contact with outside resources. Officials believe the crew fled on lifeboats but the four men have yet to be found. Both the United States Coast Guard and the Air Force have been helping on this so far over 4,000 mile search radius but nothing has come up yet. Thoughts and prayers go out to the members on the Cheeki Rafiki and hopefully everyone returns safely.

Mono Mono Twins

An Ohio family is excited to welcome their brand new twins into the world this past week. This rare birth was monoamniotic "mono mono" in which the babies share the placenta and amniotic sac. It only happens in around 1 out of 10,000 births and will be one to remember for Doctor Justin Lavin. The twin girls were holding hands during birth. Before delivering baby Jenna and baby Jillian, both under 5 pounds, the family had to spend lots of time at the hospital. These rare twins can suffer from umbilical complications and therefore had to stay under close supervision. Now the family is excited to bring back two younger sisters for their 15 month old boy.

Hair Act Ruins Circus

After a few entertaining rounds of acts at a Rhode Island circus, one went wrong. An apparatus in which people hang from their hair didn't work causing 11 people to be taken to the hospital. The audience of around 3,900 people believed it was a part of the act until others started screaming and they realized it wasn't. The "Hair-Hang" has been done numerous times and has never been a problem in the past, but now it's a process of figuring out where it went wrong and what the circus group can do to prevent it from happening in the future.

Slashing in Connecticut

After being placed in highly supervised medical facility, a young man at a Connecticut high school is being charged with slashing classmates with knives and killing a 16 year old girl in the process. While fleeing in a nearby stairwell Maren Sanchez was cut in the neck, chest and face. It is said to be she was victimized due to the fact Maren rejected the boy's prom proposal and he wanted to get her back for it. Measures were taken to save the girl, but it was too late and she was pronounced dead at the scene. Homicide charges are still being debated.

Bus Stop Gone Wrong

After a bus driver allegedly left his school bus unattended, the bus rolled away in a Maryland school parking lot. 5 students were brought to the hospital after the incident, after the roaming bus hit 2 students right in front of the school building. Tho two students who were specifically hit were taken to a trauma center for serious injuries. One individual was pulled out from under the bus and taken to a hospital for life-threatening injuries. Officials have not named the man/woman who was supposed to be on the bus that day, but i'm sure further charges will be placed one school officials find out.

Summer School

Due to the ridiculous amounts of unnecessary snow days this 2014 school year, all Northeast Wisconsin schools will be participating in the summer long school program. School will continue until August 3rd and all students will report to summer school from 9:00 am until 7:00 pm. Unless you want to be served chicken patties every day for dinner you must pack your own lunch during this time. Recess will consist of organized handball every day from 12:00-1:00 and a snack will follow this time. Bring nothing but your bodies, no learning will be involved; only your time is needed. Bus services will not be provided.

Professional Snake Handler Dead

Pastor and reality star Jamie Coots was killed from a single bite of a snake yesterday in Kentucky. He died because he refused to be treated after getting bit because a passage in the bible said that if you were under the hands of god you would be safe, but not in this case. The third level "serpent handler" was well known  in the area and had spent much time with all sorts of previous snakes in the past. He even was in trouble with the law a few years back for keeping more than 70 snakes with him in his own home. The congregation Jamie led will now be passed on to his son.
