kindness after Sandy Hook tragedy

 Kaitlin Roig-Debellis saved her students by hiding with them.  She says that it was something that anyone would do under the circumstances.  It's what she's doing a year later that makes her even more of a hero.  Many gifts were sent to the school following the tragedy.  Kaitlin brought in a box of objects and used it as a learning experience for her students.  She asked why someone would send things and the kids learned that people wanted them to be happy.  From that Classes 4 Classes was born.  Kaitlin's class picked a class in another school and sent them a box of things they could use in their classroom and it has grown to include more schools.  teaching

rescuer is a dog

Leonard Somers went skiing and took his dog with him.  That was a decision that ultimately saved his life.  Somers had an accident during that skiing adventure that has left him paralyzed but it could've been much worse.  His hero is Juneau, an alaskan husky, who alerted others to his whereabouts thus saving him from freezing to death.  hero

limitations?

This guy has made the word "limitations" almost non-existent.  Cornel Hrisca-Munn was born missing some of his limbs but that hasn't stopped him from becoming a world-class drummer and bass player.  He doesn't use prosthetics because they are too heavy and cumbersome.  You have to watch to see how amazing this musician is.  drummer

has someone died in your house?

You can now find out if your house has a sordid past.  Murder, suicide, and murder/suicide are all listed at DiedInHouse.com.  For a small fee, you can find out if your house has the potential for ghosts from these tragic deaths.  Roy Condrey got the idea after one of his tenants told him that the tenant's house had ghosts and wanted to know if anyone had ever died there.  Realtors and sellers don't have to disclose that information.  died in house?
