How - Kids save the day after bus driver has heart attack (video)
Two middle school students in Milton , Wash. , stepped up and saved the day when their school bus driver suffered what appeared to be a heart attack at the wheel Monday morning.
Surveillance video shows the driver gasping for air, flailing then slumping over unconscious, sending the middle school students on the bus into a frenzy. Many can be heard screaming, "Oh my God!" However, Jeremy Wuitschick, 13, didn't panic. Instead, he leapt to his feet, grabbed the wheel, veered the bus to the side of the road and removed the keys from the ignition.
"I'm like, 'Somebody call 911' and they did. Then Johnny Wood came up and he's like 'I know CPR,'" Wuitschick told King 5 News.
Wood, another seventh grader, is seen doing chest compressions on the driver.
"The videos popped into my head and I was like, 'Somebody call 911. Try to clear the area and start doing chest compressions,'" Wood said. Several students called 911 on their cellphones.
Local authorities praised Wuitschick's fast action. "I'll tell you, I'll give the kid credit for fast thinking. He did the right thing and we're going to do something for him. The kid definitely deserves credit," Milton Police Chief Bill Rhodes told ABC News.
Caught-Donation for dream wedding
A California woman is facing multiple charges of fraud and grand larceny after allegedly faking terminal cancer to get donations for her "dream wedding."
Jessica Vega, 25, originally from Montgomery , N.Y. , was arrested and indicted in Orange County , Calif. , on Monday, New York 's attorney general announced.
"By pretending to have a terminal illness, Vega inexcusably took advantage of the community's hearts and minds, and profited off their generosity," Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said. "Our office will hold this individual accountable for fleecing the public through lies and deception."In the spring of 2010, Vega claimed she was dying from acute myeloid leukemia and had only a few months to live, the Times Herald-Record reported. She asked for a dream wedding to marry the father of her child, Michael O'Connell.Through the generosity of friends and strangers, she received a $1,200 wedding dress, the wedding rings, flowers for the May reception and a honeymoon in Aruba, according to a CBS News report."It was subsequently discovered that Jessica Vega was neither stricken with terminal cancer nor dying, as she had led everyone to believe," the attorney general said. O'Connell approached the Times Herald-Record after contacting a doctor supposedly treating Vega and finding out she had never been a patient. The couple divorced shortly thereafter, but have since reunited and had a second child together, the newspaper reported.
What more-Teen sells kidney to buy iPhone
Five people in southern China have been charged with intentional injury in the case of a Chinese teenager who sold a kidney so he could buy an iPhone and an iPad, the government-run Xinhua News Agency said on Friday. The five included a surgeon who removed a kidney from a 17-year-old boy in April last year. The boy, identified only by his surname Wang, now suffers from renal deficiency, Xinhua quoted prosecutors in Chenzhou city, Hunan province as saying.
According to the Xinhua account, one of the defendants received about 220,000 yuan (about $35,000) to arrange the transplant. He paid Wang 22,000 yuan and split the rest with the surgeon, the three other defendants and other medical staff. The report did not say who received and paid for the kidney. The teen was from Anhui , one of China 's poorest provinces, where inhabitants frequently leave to find work and a better life elsewhere. He bought an iPhone and iPad, and when asked by his mother where he got the money, admitted selling a kidney.
Apple products are hugely popular in China , but are priced beyond the reach of many Chinese. IPhones start at 3,988 yuan ($633), and iPads begin at 2,988 yuan ($474).
Wang's renal deficiency is deteriorating, Xinhua quoted prosecutors as saying. Only a fraction of the people who need organ transplants in China are able to get them, leading to "transplant tourism" where patients travel overseas for such operations, and to a black market for human organs. China banned the trading of human organs in 2007, Xinhua said. Several other suspects involved in the case are still being investigated.

How-Fraudster Bought Sex Toys in Mail Scheme
APRIL 9--While it is bad enough to be arrested on dozens of criminal counts for allegedly swiping the credit card numbers of several victims, federal agents have made sure to disclose that an alleged thief used the stolen digits to purchase two pieces of “masturbation furniture.”
Yasir Mehmood, a 40-year-old California resident, was named Friday in a 29-count criminal complaint charging him with mail fraud, identity theft, bank fraud, and making false statements, according to a U.S. District Court filing. Postal inspectors allege that Mehmood illegally forwarded the mail of victims to either his Sacramento home or a post office box he controlled. He then used “identification, credit card, and financial information” found in the redirected mail to make a variety of fraudulent transactions, “all to obtain cash, goods, and services.”
As detailed by Postal Inspector Roxanne LeMaire, two of Mehmood’s illegal purchases came on February 19, when he used the Wells Fargo checking account of victim “Scott B” to purchase $341.84 worth of products from Interactive Life Forms, which produces the “Fleshlight” series of sex toys (also known as “masturbation sleeves”).
While Mehmood did not buy a Fleshlight, he did allegedly purchase two mounts into which the device is plugged. The $127.46 “On a Mission” mount (seen above) is ideal “for both hands-free pleasure and stamina training techniques,” according to the Fleshlight web site (which adds that the “wipe-able mount also includes the patented microfiber base for non skid use with the Hit the Floor Motion Pad”).
