Ward was born three and a half months early when his mom, Lyndsey, was told that she had a clot in her placenta. He was born at one pound and thirteen ounces, but he dropped to one pound and seven ounces after he was born. Lyndsey and Ben Miller, Ward's parents, were told that there was a 50/50 chance that their son would grow up to be normal. After ten days of being alive, it was found that Ward has blood in his brain tissue; it eventually went away. Ward spent over one hundred days in NICU in Ohio before being released to go home. Throughout the entire journey, Ben Miller documented some very important times like when they were finally allowed to bring baby Ward home. After a very tough first year, Ward is growing, and acting just like a 16 month old boy should be.

Zimmerman At It Again
George Zimmerman, the man who shot 17 year old Trayvon Martin, was arrested Monday for pointing a shotgun at his girlfriend. This happened while he was packing up his things to move out. He also shoved her out of her apartment. By the time police had arrived at the apartment, he had blocked off the door with furniture. Zimmerman's girlfriend Samantha gave the police a key to get in, and they shoved aside the furniture. When the cops got to him, he was unarmed and did not resist them while being arrested. He was arrested around 1 pm for domestic abuse, criminal mischief, and for aggravated assault.
The argument started when Samantha asked Zimmerman to pack up his belongings and leave. He cocked the shotgun, put in away, got angry and took it back out, and then "asked her if she really want to do that," when Samantha said she was going to call the police. Zimmerman pulled a stunt similar to this with his ex-wife Shellie in September.

Beauty Is Who You Are
http://www.today.com/news/marine-life-after-severe-injury-beauty-who-you-are-2D11577222
Operation Mend, a group that helps severely wounded soldiers, has helped a former Marine named Aaron Mankin. He has inspired many people, and overcome so much in his life already. On May 11, 2005 Aaron's life changed forever when his platoon in Iraq ran over an IED killing four, and injuring eleven. Different parts of his body were severely damaged; his mouth, nose, ears, and part of his cheeks, and his fingers. He was the very first patient for Operation Mend in 2007. After 65 surgeries, and 8 1/2 years of recovery, he's looks great. He is so thankful, and says "He never though I would look this good." He uses his story to inspire others, and is doing a good job. Aaron has significantly inspired the family of William and Christina Geist, and that's why they started Operation Mend.

Justin Bieber Walks Off Stage
While performing in Argentina, Justin Bieber walked off stage. He apologized to the fans telling them he wasn't feeling well, and later blamed it on food poisoning. The fans paid large amounts of money, and booed him as he walked off. Prior to coming onto stage, he didn't feel well either, and didn't get on stage until an hour later than originally planned. His manager was tweeting about him saying he gave it his all. He also said that Justin spent multiple hours hooked up to an IV. Hopefully this doesn't happen again, because his fans are very upset.
