Feel-good stories

An entire family of four, including an 11-month-old baby, has taken a leap of faith from a burning five-story building. The video makes it look an incredibly dangerous close call, as bodies plummet freely into the hands of people below.

An apartment on the fourth floor was overcome with an unstoppable blaze that began to engulf the apartment above, where the family with two children lived. The incident took place on May 22 in the town of Strunino in Russia's Vladimir region.

When breathing became unbearable and posed a deadly hazard, the family went onto the balcony. The 27-year-old father, Vitaliy, found an old carpet there, threw it down and asked people down on the ground to catch his family, Russian TVC channel reported.

The horrifying video shows the 11-month old boy Zhenya being hurled out of the blackened balcony by some unseen force, as a crowd with their hands on the carpet await below. Three-year-old Ksenia followed her brother in a matter of seconds.

The News Media flows on "If it bleeds, it leads." No wonder we are all pessimistic about human beings, the environment, life in general.

Don't be so ignorant!

Every day thousands of kids miss school just because they don’t have clean clothes to wear. That’s why we created Care Counts™, a program that works to improve attendance rates with the simple act of laundry.

Feels good to know a serial arsonist has been identified and will face charges for what he did in Vernon. May not seem like good news, but if it stops him, or deterrs another, everyone will be greatly relieved. The good news is, Vernon did not turn in to Fort Mac scenario.

Just wanted to remind people that a 2 years ago someone stole my car and then returned it 12 hours later with gas in it, clean, untouched and with the small amount of change intact in the ashtray.

Thanks for the solid. Grand theft manners.
