A 26 year old woman in Shelton Conneticut died while giving birth to her 3 triplets. She was unaware that she was pregnant so she bled to death in her home.
I think this is really sad, but i don't understand how she couldn't have known she was pregnant with triplets

Delta Air Lines bought Northwest Airlines in a $3.6bn deal that will create the world's largest airline and is likely to trigger a wave of consolidation across the industry. I think it's kind of exciting that they are making a big airline out of the two.

At a Riverdale Maryland crematorium 40 bodies were found stacked in a garage by the crematorium. They decided to give the grieving families wood ash instead of their own loved family members ashes to save money. The bodies would be transportated to the crematorium owners family land and dumped into a landfill. This story is super creepy, I couldn't imagine loosing a family member and then later finding out that what i thought had been their ashes really weren't. I would be so upset.

At Time Square in New York City Faiszal Shahzad who came to the United States in 1998 tried to bomb the whole block using a car. It's so lucky that that bomb didn't go off, so many people would have been killed or hurt.

current events croc killer


Lauren Failla was killed last week in India while swimming on vacation with her boyfriend. There was a lifeguard on duty but it happened so fast that nothing could be done. Out of the 24 attacks at that beach 4 have been fatal. I think it would suck a lot more to be attacked by a croc than a shark, this is a really sad story.
