RANDI KAYE, CNN ANCHOR: From CNN center, this is CNN SATURDAY MORNING. It's 8:00 a.m. in the east 5:00 a.m. in the west. Good morning everyone. I'm Randi Kaye.

Millions lined up for a chance to win big and it looks like at least one ticket hit the record-breaking jackpot. We'll tell you where it was sold.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

CROWD: What do we want? Justice. When do we want it? Now.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

KAYE: Keeping up the heat in the investigation of Trayvon Martin's shooting. There's a march planned today for the Sanford Police Department. We are live in Florida.

And some scary moments for firefighters in Dearborn, Michigan, when the roof they were on started to collapse. Training, quick thinking and a lot of luck saved the day.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: We've seen so many times. We saw it on video. Oh, boy, I guess we really avoided a crisis there. So - especially when it was my feet dangling in that hole.

KAYE: From CNN's world headquarters, bringing you news and analysis from across the nation and around the globe. Live from Studio 7, this is CNN SATURDAY MORNING.

The streets of Sanford, Florida, are again filled with people seeking justice for Trayvon Martin and the arrest of his shooter George Zimmerman. People are gathered right now for a march.

Today's focus, the Sanford Police Department, which has been heavily criticized for allowing Zimmerman to remain free. George Howell is outside police headquarters where protesters will end up. And George, it has been one month now since the killing of Trayvon Martin, but the outrage certainly shows no signs of waning. In some cases it seems to be growing. What are you seeing there? GEORGE HOWELL, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Randi, indeed, we are expecting thousands of people to be here. Here at the Sanford Police Department at 11:00 a.m. Eastern here, just in front of the Police Department, thousands of people.

But right now, people are getting together for a march. The march will start here, rather start at this hour, and end up here at the Sanford Police Department. It's hosted by the NAACP.

And the message is very simple - to arrest George Zimmerman. Now, keep in mind, the rhetoric from other groups from the National Action Group, they are saying that the rhetoric should be raised, the level raised.

And if George Zimmerman is not arrested, there should be economic sanctions. So that's what we're seeing right now with these rallies and civil rights leaders speaking.

KAYE: And Al Sharpton is also making comments of what he thinks the next step is in this protest. What does he say?

HOWELL: Again, he is saying that economic sanctions should be the result if George Zimmerman is not arrested. You're seeing two groups right now, seemingly two different messages. Right now, the NAACP, their main focus is to see Zimmerman arrested.

KAYE: And is this expected to be a peaceful march, or is there extra security there at the headquarters?

HOWELL: We've seen a few police officers driving by. Certainly, they are getting ready for it. The streets here around the police department are blocked off, but we are expecting a peaceful rally with the NAACP.

Thousands of people, many bused-in from cities all over the country with the same chorus, people who want to see Zimmerman arrested in this case.

KAYE: George Howell, thank you very much. And we're hearing from Trayvon Martin's brother. In an interview with a CNN affiliate, Jahvaris Fulton that he still cannot believe that his younger brother, shown here in these images, is dead.

The 21-year-old student at Florida International University says he finds it incredible that anyone would believe allegations that Trayvon threatened to kill the man who ultimately shot him.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

JAHVARIS FULTON, TRAYVON MARTIN'S BROTHER: I was listening to Zimmerman's father speak yesterday. And he said something like, my brother was on top of his son and said they're going to die tonight. That doesn't sound like my brother at all.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

KAYE: Trayvon's mother says she is still confident police will, quote, "Do a thorough investigation."

Our Soledad O'Brien leads a special town hall about how the Trayvon Martin tragedy became a nationwide story and what it says about racial tension in our country. You have another chance to watch it. "Beyond Trayvon: Race and Justice in America" - that's coming up 2:00 p.m. Eastern only on CNN.

Turning to another story making big news this morning, the Mega Millions lottery, if you haven't checked those tickets and you missed the drawing last night, here's what you missed.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

ANNOUNCER: Our first number tonight is 46. That's followed by 23. Up next, we have 38. That's followed by - 4. And the final white ball for this Friday evening is 2. Now, for the mega ball. Tonight's mega ball number is 23.

KAYE: Twenty-nine tickets in California matched five of the six Mega- Millions number, just one number, only one number away from hitting that jackpot. So very close.

Hackers setting their sights on credit and debit cards. And now, a security firm says 10 million people could be at risk. Global Payments, the company at the center of the breach, says it notified credit card issuers as soon as it discovered the problem.

It did not say how many accounts or which companies were affected. But Visa has released a statement saying, quote, "Accounts from all major brands could be affected."

How can you protect yourself? Well, earlier, I spoke with finance expert, Clyde Anderson. And here's what he said.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

CLYDE ANDERSON, FINANCE EXPERT: It's hard to really protect yourself from the frontend. That's why laws have been put in place to actually make sure that you're only responsible for a small amount.

So $50 is generally what you're responsible for, and a lot of credit card companies will waive that. And so, really, you have to go in and report it as soon as possible.

So it's up to you to go in and make sure the information on your report, the information on your credit card statements is accurate.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

KAYE: Clyde says keep a close eye on your statements. Look through every charge and pull your credit report.

It would make it harder for some of you to get an FHA home loan. Starting tomorrow, if you're fighting a debt of over $1,000 or more with a creditor, you may no longer qualify for an FHA insured loan, even if you have perfect credit scores.

Before, you could be in a debt dispute and a lender might have approved your FHA loan based on your credit history and other factors.

But now, a lender will have to justify the approval and back its decision with documentation. It changes part of the Federal Housing Administration's effort to reduce its risk and address its depleted reserve fund.

It was one of the first images that we showed you after an EF-4 tornado ripped through Henryville, Indiana. Remember this? A school bus impaled into a restaurant?

We're now getting a look now inside that bus as the tornado hit captured by security cameras onboard. But just moments before, there were 11 students sitting in those seats that you see there.

The school bus driver is on the radio. And listen as she turns the bus around and heads back to the school, a tornado heading straight for them.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I see the tornado on the ground, north of the school.

ANGEL PERRY, BUS DRIVER: Everything's - if you got a book to put over your head, do it. Get in the middle. There's a tornado right there, guys. Look, the funnel cloud.

Don't block me, truck. Don't block me. Guys, we're just going to go as fast as we can into the school. Everybody stay together. Our group together right now. Go, go, go, go, go, go! One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine -

UNIDENTIFIED CHILD: Come on. Come on!

PERRY: Ten, 11. Go, go, GO.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

KAYE: Three minutes later, this is what happened. Thank goodness those kids were out of that bus.

Reynolds is back with us. Reynolds, some pretty quick thinking. What a hero, right? That teacher, that bus driver?

REYNOLDS WOLF, CNN WORLDWIDE CORRESPONDENT: Oh, no doubt. Oh, you're absolutely right, Randi. I mean, every second matters. And goodness gracious, I mean, you saw the aftermath, what happened with that bus.

You know, the number one thing that really affects people during those kinds of situations with the tornadoes is the debris. The stuff is picked up and is thrown through the air. They become projectiles.

And I'll tell you, the safest place they could be is inside a very strong structure, not that bus. The school building - that's exactly where she put them. And thankfully, they all survived.

But certainly, a terrifying thing. I've got to tell you, today, we're going to be seeing the chances of severe weather popping up across the southern end of the Mississippi Valley.

But I don't think it's going to be quite intense, maybe an isolated tornado or two. But more than anything, the best chance is just a few strong thunderstorms.

We're going to see a combination of rain, sleet and snow in parts of the east, now towards the west. There's going to be some rain in the valleys, possibly some snow in the highest elevations. More of that, coming up, Randi.

KAYE: OK. Thank you, Reynolds. Dreaming big. Everyone wanted to win that mega lottery jackpot. But would you know what to do if you had all that money. We have some tips for you.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

KAYE: We're back to CNN SATURDAY MORNING and congratulations to anyone who had these winning numbers. Here's another look at the numbers from last night's Mega Millions jackpot.

We know at least one winning ticket was bought in Maryland. Twenty- nine tickets in California matched five of the six numbers, so they get a whole lot of cash themselves as well.

Let's get back to our main story this morning - $640 million dollar lottery prize. The winning ticket sold in Maryland. And in one of our side bars right now, we want to get some quick tips every jackpot winner should know.

Joining me now from Chicago, securities attorney, Andrew Stoltmann. Andrew, good morning to you. I'm guessing you didn't win, right, either because you're sitting there in Chicago working this morning as well.

What is the first thing that - what's the first thing that you would tell the winner, if you had a chance to talk to them today, if they called you for some advice?

ANDREW STOLTMANN, SECURITIES ATTORNEY: Well, I think the first thing they need to do is get a good safe, because you are not the winner of the lottery until you give the lottery officials the actual ticket. So the first thing you want to do is make certain that the actual ticket is secured.

KAYE: You also have some pretty good tips, and I want to go through some of my favorites here besides keep the ticket safe. That's the number one tip, right?

STOLTMANN: You know it is. And there are a couple of other tips as well. You know, many people debate whether they should take a lump sum distribution or whether they should take the payments out over the 26- year period. I usually counsel people to take the payments over that 26-year period, and the reason is simple. A lot of the people who win the lottery simply don't have the infrastructure set up in order to manage that sort of windfall.

So if you make some mistakes in the first year, or second year, or third year, and you still have the payments coming in over a 22 or 25 or 26-year period, you can still live through those catastrophic mistakes and still have hundreds of millions of dollars coming in.

KAYE: I'm still stuck on your first tip of keeping the ticket safe. I mean, who loses a multimillion dollar lottery ticket? Who?

STOLTMANN: You might be surprised. There have been a couple instances in the last two decades where people had won the lottery and then they'd lost the ticket.

And if you don't have the ticket, and if you can't present the actual ticket, you're simply out of luck.

KAYE: And I guess you can't even share it with family. That's just incredible. You say that people shouldn't take the lump sum exactly, though. Why is that?

STOLTMANN: Well, because the statistics indicate that about 90 percent of the people who win the lottery have no money left after five years.

And there are a number of mistakes that lottery winners do make. And unfortunately, they make the same mistakes again and again. If you take that lump sum distribution, you know, and you make some mistakes, that can be catastrophic.

But if you have the money coming in over many years, two decades or more, you can live through those initial mistakes that so many lottery winners make.

KAYE: Yes, psychologically, though, it's hard to not say, "I want all that money. I want all those millions right now," because then you're worried you may never get it.

STOLTMANN: Well, you know, that's true. And the person who won the lottery will likely be the number one target of both legitimate banks and brokerage firms and also scammers out there, probably worldwide.

I mean, that person is an absolute target. Now, the good news for this person is that Maryland is one of five states where the winner does not have to come forward and identify himself or herself.

KAYE: Right.

STOLTMANN: So they can remain anonymous, which is good. But the worst thing they could do is, for example, have a press conference or get their name out there, because -

KAYE: Does money affect your decision-making process? Because I know one of the things you also say, don't make any major decisions for six months. So, why not?

STOLTMANN: Yes. The temptation to do stuff and spend that money is going to be extraordinarily great. But some of the worst mistakes that lottery winners make are the initial decisions that they make.

So I usually counsel people, hey, look. Wait three months or wait six months before you make any major, major decisions. Now, obviously, go out and buy the car. Maybe you can even buy the new house.

But you have to be careful with that money especially in the beginning, because it's such a big change.

KAYE: Andrew Stoltmann, fun talking to you this morning about this. Thank you.

STOLTMANN: Thank you.

KAYE: The lottery may not just be luck. There's actually an app that can help you pick the right numbers, or so they say. We'll take a look, next.

Plus, crab funding started out as a way to fund business ventures. But online fundraising is now being used to help raise money for health care.

Coming up, how a family, using one site, helped their daughter battle cancer for the fourth time.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

KAYE: Check it out. We have a very busy morning here in Studio 7 at CNN. Those are 3D printers. You can actually get one for your home. They can print practically anything, I mean anything, even me.

Yes, they're printing one of me. It's going to be very interesting. Can't wait to see when that's done. We will show you the finished product and show you all kinds of things that that can do, coming up.

All right. I admit it. This whole half a billion-dollar lottery gave me lottery fever. I was checking my ticket really as often as I was checking my iPhone. So I thought, how can I combine the two?

Let me bring in "CNN Money Tech" reporter, Laurie Segall. Laurie, good morning to you.

LAURIE SEGALL, "CNN MONEY TECH" REPORTER: Good morning, Randi.

KAYE: So we didn't win the lottery this time, but there must be some type of lotto app, right, that could improve our luck maybe for next time?

Yes, Randi, you're right. I have my failed lottery ticket right here. And I actually - I actually picked my numbers based on an app called Lottery Pro.

And what it essentially does is you can pick up your phone and you can shake it. You can open up the app, you can shake it, and it will give you six random numbers.

Now, I was a little bit skeptical on it so I called up the founder. And what he said was, statistically, your chances are still one in 176 million, so don't get your hopes up.

But that being said, he said there are a lot of features that can actually help you in some ways.

KAYE: All right. So any help, of course, is good. Can you give me some examples?

SEGALL: So I'm the kind of person - I don't really go out and purchase lottery tickets all the time. But when the stakes are very high, when they're at $200 million, $300 million, I would maybe go out and try it out.

So the app will alert you - you can set up a notification. It will alert you when the jackpot is $200 million or $300 million and it will tell when you to go out and do it.

It will also show you statistics of numbers that have won in the past, numbers that haven't been used in a while. And another really cool part is, let's say, you know, you do decide to go out and purchase a ticket. It will send you a push notification or a text message that has your lotto results.

So likely, you'll get a text message telling you, you are not going to be a multimillionaire. But you still don't have to watch TV and you don't have to go online and you can avoid that whole hassle.

KAYE: Well, I'm just going to keep shaking my iPhone and maybe it will give me the winning numbers. How about this? How much is this app?

SEGALL: So it's $0.99 cents. For a perspective, you can also go by a Mega Million ticket for about $1. So you know, you make your choices. But it is a cool app. I tested it out yesterday. It was a little bit slow because I think a ton of people are actually trying to use it.

KAYE: All right. Let me talk to you about another app which I actually just started using. It's called Shazam. It's sort of a "name that tune" app, right, but you're reporting now they've made a pretty big upgrade?

SEGALL: Yes. You know, Shazam has always been so popular on the smartphone. Everybody loves it because who doesn't - you know, if you walk into a bar or a restaurant, you hear a song and you would say, "I want to know who sings it."

All you have to do is take out the app, press Shazam and it all identifies the song. It will give you the opportunity to buy it.

But now, what they're doing is that - they really conquered this space. They're turning attention to the big screen. So what they're saying is we want you to - instead of being able to Shazam songs, we want you to be able to Shazam commercials and advertisements and potentially unlock all types of discounts. KAYE: So how do you know exactly? I mean I haven't even used it, but somebody told me to get it so I got it. But how do you know - if were you to use it while watching a commercial, how do you know when to do it? And what, you just hold it up to the TV?

SEGALL: Yes. You know, it's not widely used right now, we should note that. But you know, companies like Old Navy, Best Buy - let's say you're watching their commercial.

You'll see at the bottom of your screen an icon that says, "Shazam now," and you will see that blue icon. And the idea is a lot of people - a lot of these advertisers are saying, "OK. We no longer just watch television. We watch TV with a tablet or a smartphone in front of us and we want to be able to increase this interaction between the user and the ad."

So you know, what Toyota did during the Super Bowl is they asked people to Shazam their ads and then they gave away two free cars. They gave away gift certificates.

Madonna gave away a song. So you know, it's kind of - it's a little bit weird to hold up your phone and do it, but it definitely can't hurt.

KAYE: No. Not if you might be able to get a free car out of it. Maybe not every day, but you know -

SEGALL: I would take it.

KAYE: Every little bit helps. Laurie, great to see you.

SEGALL: It does.

KAYE: Thank you very much.

SEGALL: You, too. Thanks, Randi.

KAYE: Have a great day. A TV news chopper captures an amazing moment. Watch. The three firefighters are ventilating a roof of this building when the roof simply collapses.

There it goes. The guys formed a chain to pull each other from the hole that was opening there. All three walked away without any injuries and went back to fighting that fire. How brave of those guys. Wow.

All right. Let's check back in with Reynolds staying by the Weather Center. Speaking of fires, Reynolds, what's the situation in Colorado? They're still trying to contain one there.

WOLF: Yes. And unfortunately, the situation is still fairly grim. What they could really use in parts of the Central Rockies would be some kind of precipitation.

And we are seeing somewhere in other parts of country, namely, out towards the west and even in the east. All the way from New England and clear down to parts of Georgia, we're seeing some scattered showers, but not much in terms of the Rockies.

Let's begin first with that precipitation we are seeing in the east. As we zoom in towards New England, you're seeing some rain along the coast.

But back into the Berkshires, we're seeing some snow fall. Even in Upstate New York, even the Catskill, it might snow fall there.

In the southeast, it's going to be a rumble of thunder that we're going to be seeing across parts of Georgia and along portions of the gulf coast.

The back half of the system may bring some scattered showers in places like Hattiesburg and perhaps New Orleans. But the bulk of that moisture now moving into Alabama and the Florida panhandle and even into Georgia.

Out to the west, the situation is pretty bad there in terms of the heavy rain they might expect in parts of San Joaquin Valley and parts of the Pacific Northwest in Oregon and Washington.

We have flash with watches and (UNINTELLIGIBLE) so many spots. But as we make our way into the Central Rockies, we're going to zoom in on that spot. The big issue we're going to have, the dry conditions with the fires.

And of course, at the same time, we're going to have some strong winds; 85 degrees expected high in Denver. A little bit cooler up in the mountains where they're battling the blazes.

But the wind is going to be really the telling prospect. We're going do have relative humidity of about 10 percent to 17 percent. The winds at 10 to 20 in gusts, around 30 - even that might be a bit conservative.

We might have some gusts approaching 35, perhaps even 40. And that certainly isn't going to help matters at all. The wind will be relentless at times across the great basin.

In fact, from Reno back over to Salt Lake City, even into Las Vegas, you can expect some gusts run 40 to even 60 miles per hour about late in the afternoon.

So certainly it's something to keep in mind. And with the wind, yes, you might have delays in a few spots. And I'll tell you, out in the northeast, the delays you're going to have there, not really due mostly to the wind, but rather the showers.

Also some low clouds. Could be having some delays there over an hour. Delays also in San Francisco, of course. In Atlanta and Charlotte, not quite as long, under an hour. Same story in Los Angeles and in Salt Lake City.

That wind - that pesky wind should last through a good portion of the weekend. All right, Randi. You're up to speed. Let's get right back to you. KAYE: All right. Reynolds, I know you're a world traveler so you're going to want to listen to this. If you're going on vacation to exotic lands, but not the kind you might normally think of, that's right, how about Tripoli this summer? Yes. Libya. We're talk to man who make those kinds of trips around the world happen.

Also, raising money to help friends and families in need. Just ahead, meet the founder of GiveForward.com. It's a Web site that offers financial support through online fundraising.

And a family who raised thousands of dollars as they battle to save their little girl from cancer. They'll be here as well. We'll be right back.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

KAYE: Thirty minutes past the hour. Welcome back, everyone. I'm Randi Kaye. Thanks for starting your day with us.

Checking top stories now - we now know that there are at least two winning tickets in the Mega Millions lottery. Here is the winning number, 2-4-23-38-46 and the mega ball of 23.

One winner is in Maryland and one in Illinois. We're just getting word from the Illinois lottery just moments ago.

They are saying that a grand prize Mega Millions winning ticket was sold at a store in Red Bud, Illinois. That's near St. Louis. We're going to talk with one of those officials coming up here shortly.

Wall Street didn't have, just a -- or didn't just have a good week. It had a great first three months of the year and the best in more than a decade. The Dow was up 8.1 percent since New Year's Day and that is thanks in part to improving consumer confidence and spending. The S&P 500 and the NASDAQ are also up by double digits.

Hillary Clinton stressing Washington's quote, "Rock solid commitment to its Gulf Arab allies in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia today. The Secretary of State said Iran's nuclear activities are the most pressing concern. And she said the U.S. and partners will look how to ramp up pressure on the Syrian regime to end its deadly crackdown on opposition protesters.

Newly released documents in the 2009 disappearance of a Utah mother has her family asking why wasn't her husband arrested sooner. The unsealed court records showed that investigators found Susan Powell's blood inside her family's home along with a handwritten will saying that she feared her husband might kill her. Last month the husband, Josh Powell, snatched his two sons from a social worker and killed the children and himself minutes before his home exploded.

While Americans await a ruling from the Supreme Court on health care reform the cost of medical care continues to rise affecting the lives of millions of people every day. And here are some startling statistics. Six out of ten people has skipped or delayed seeking health care due to costs. Three in ten did not fill a prescription for the same reason. Each year 72 million Americans take on medical debt. And 62 percent of bankruptcies are caused by medical reasons.

Taking care of a loved one who is sick is hard enough without having to worry how you're going pay for those increasing medical expenses, but crowd funding Web sites offer a quick and easy ways for families and friends and even strangers to raise money to help families offset those expenses.

GiveForward.com is one of those sites. Desiree Vargas Wrigley is the Web site founder. Desiree, good morning to you. Thank you so much for coming on the program this morning. Crowd funding is really becoming popular trend. What inspired you to start GiveForward.com?

DESIREE VARGAS WRIGLEY, FOUNDER, GIVEFORWARD.COM: So I was inspired primarily by Hurricane Katrina. I was frustrated by the fact you couldn't give directly to families who are trying to rebuild after the flood. So I partnered with Ethan Austin and we launched GiveForward as a platform to really help give friends and family answers to their question what can I do to help when a loved one's in need.

So over time --

KAYE: So how -- how does it work?

WRIGLEY: Ok, so basically we give people personal fund-raising pages that they can customize with their story and then they can share it with friends and family all over the world using Facebook or Twitter or e-mail or even a personal blog. And then people donate with their credit or debit card and at the end of a fund-raiser a patient and their family receive this great packet of financial and emotional support.

KAYE: And so obviously, anyone who might be wanting to donate and help, they're probably wondered how do you know that this is a legitimate need? So how do you make sure that the recipient is legitimate?

WRIGLEY: Yes. So there are a couple of safeguards that we have in place. First is that we have a flagging system just like any site, like eBay or Craigslist. And that does you know helps deter any kind of fraud.

But the major point is that when people raise money on GiveForward, they are predominantly raising money from close friends and family. So in order to be successful on GiveForward, you have to defraud all of your personal network and that's really not very likely to happen.

What we see more often, is that people come on to the site to raise money on behalf of someone they love. So it's usually not the patient themselves and it's usually people with insurance, middle-class Americans who are hard working and they have this great network of people who want to support them and we just give them that tool to do that.

KAYE: Desiree, stay with us for a moment. I want to bring in Shannah Rodriguez Torres. She is joining us this morning because she actually uses this Web site. Shannah, good morning to you, tell me about your daughter Bella's battle with cancer and what brought you to this?

SHANNAH RODRIGUEZ-TORRES: Hi. How are you? Well, in July of 2007, when Bella was four and a half, she became paralyzed overnight and was diagnosed with stage 4 alveolar (inaudible) sarcoma and she was, she went through a year of treatment and was cancer-free for six months and then unfortunately in April of '09, they found a tumor in her brain which they removed. And then again, she was on chemo and radiation.

And she was cancer-free for two years and then unfortunately in August of 2011, they found another tumor in her right ovary which was removed as well. And she had radiation to her pelvis, to the right side of her pelvis and then just now in January, in January 12th of 2012, they unfortunately found four more tumors throughout her abdomen.

And what brought us to GiveForward is, unfortunately, Bella has used all the conventional therapies out there for her type of cancer.

And we are doing some experimental treatments that are not covered by insurance, which is our last hope, really, to find the cure for her.

So Give --

(CROSSTALK)

KAYE: How has GiveForward.com been able to help you? I mean have you been able to raise some money this way?

RODRIGUEZ-TORRES: Yes. We have been able to raise a lot of money towards -- for the majority of this experimental treatment which is unfortunately not very -- not cheap and not covered, but we have an amazing network of friends and family and community and we've been able to raise most of the money that we needed to -- to fund this experimental therapy.

KAYE: And do you think you would have been able to do that without something like GiveForward?

RODRIGUEZ-TORRES: No, absolutely not. GiveForward is, was -- is extremely convenient as you know, donors don't have to write checks, they don't have to go to the bank. They go to a Web site that I post on Bella's blog, which is PrayForBella.com. I posted it on her blog. They go to give the link at GiveForward, they click, they donate and they send. But besides the convenience for -- for our family and for donors, it's nice as well because donors are able to leave, you know, a little message of love or a prayer for Bella that, you know, we get to read and we read it to her.

And so it's nice.

KAYE: Yes.

RODRIGUEZ-TORRES: So they can donate and they can also leave, you know, a nice message for us.

KAYE: Let me bring Desiree back in. Desiree, how many families have you helped?

WRIGLEY: We've helped over 10,000 families raise over $12.5 million in the last couple of years.

(CROSSTALK)

KAYE: And you hear from them -- like Shannah I mean you hear -- you hear from them about how much it help changed their -- their world, really?

WRIGLEY: Yes we do. And you know we're so lucky in the work that we do. We get wonderful e-mails from the community members on GiveForward. But this is the first time I've actually gotten to hear a voice of one of our members. So it's really touching. As a new mom I can only imagine what you are going through, Shannah. So we are really praying for Bella back in Chicago.

RODRIGUEZ-TORRES: We appreciate it.

KAYE: Well we all are. Desiree, Shannah, thank you both very much and Shannah we wish you the best of luck with Bella.

RODRIGUEZ-TORRES: Thank you. I appreciate it.

WRIGLEY: Thank you, Randi.

KAYE: And now back to our main story.

Another winning ticket turns out was sold in Illinois; so let's go to Athena Jones live in Baltimore, Maryland. Oh. Let's -- let's listen to this press conference first in front of this 7-Eleven in Baltimore where apparently the winning ticket was sold.

(JOINED IN PROGRESS)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: -- ticket was sold at this 7-Eleven for the drawing that occurred last night. We do know that it was sold at 7:15 last night. It was a quick pick and there was only one ticket purchased by the -- by the player at that time. We obviously don't have any idea right now who the player is, when they will come forward.

Our advice to the player is to safeguard the ticket, sign the back of it. It is a barrier instrument and you want to make sure that they give it the attention and consideration it requires and that our advice from the Maryland Lottery to whoever the winner of the ticket is, is to get advice.

We wouldn't recommend who that would be, but we would encourage them to seek out legal and financial advice, but certainly the Maryland Lottery is available and ready to process the claim of this ticket when they're prepared to come forward.

(inaudible)

Well, we're closed, but they might find -- they might have a way of getting a hold of us, but we -- we open at 8:30 on --on Monday morning.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: -- a little excited. I know -- (inaudible) all this excitement. How do you feel about (inaudible).

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Yes. It's obviously a tremendous opportunity. We're very, very excited that it happened in Maryland. There were some other winning tickets, jackpot tickets, across the country. We're not going to talk about those. You know, maybe the -- somewhat tortured metaphor I would use, is that you know this is a play where there were multiple touchdowns that were -- that were scored last night.

We're going to spike the ball for Maryland and we're going to let the other states and the other lotteries come forward when those, when they're prepared to talk about the winning tickets.

(inaudible)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Sure. So the owners of this 7-Eleven have -- have owned this store for ten years. They of course, received a sales commission in Maryland that's five percent on the -- on the -- five percent of sales. So they got a nickel for selling the Mega Millions ticket. But for selling the jackpot ticket in Maryland we will pay a $100,000 as winning bonus to the retailer. So that's what they'll have coming to them here soon when we get everything processed.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: It's pretty wild. It's like a last-minute buy (inaudible)

KAYE: You've been listening to a press conference there outside the 7- Eleven where the winning ticket was sold in Baltimore, Maryland.

Our Athena Jones handed the mike over so we could listen to that. But she does have the microphone back now. So let's get to her.

Athena, we listened to that press conference there and any -- any word on whether or not this person might -- might come out? I guess the store owners and the lottery doesn't even know who they are yet?

ATHENA JONES, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Unclear you know in Maryland. People do not have to take part in any publicity. Winners do not have to take part in any publicity. So it's anyone's guess whether this person will come forward. Of course, they're advised to get legal advice. They are advised to sign their ticket. But we don't know at this point whether or not we'll actually hear from them or see them.

KAYE: Yes. The lottery folks there, the guy who was talking, he seemed pretty excited that Maryland was one of the winning states, where one of the jackpot tickets was sold. I guess he said the store owner will get about what, a $100,000 or so?

JONES: That's right. The winning store gets $100,000 bonus, and that's in addition to the five cents on the $1 of each ticket sold. And we also know that we've been able to confirm that another winning ticket was sold in southern Illinois in the town of Red Bud. It's Red Bud Moto Mart, which is near St. Louis, on a town near St. Louis. So two confirmations, at least two winners of this giant jackpot, which as you know is record setting; it's a lot bigger than the last record which is back in 2007 of $390 million. And so some big winnings here and some excited officials, Randi.

KAYE: All right.

Athena Jones, we have the 7-Eleven, Maryland now, in Baltimore and we have the Red Bud Moto Mart in Red Bud, Illinois. They are -- they're stacking up here. We'll see how many other winners we get. We're going to talk to a lottery official as soon as we can. We're going to get one on the phone. They're going to call in for us.

So Athena, thank you very much.

Well, for many of us it is time for spring break or maybe you're planning your perfect summer getaway. I'm guessing something like this may come to mind, the beautiful beaches of California, maybe Florida. But the sun-soaked beaches of Libya? I'll explain, next.

And check this out. We've been showing you all morning these 3D printers for your home. We have them in the studio and they can print just about anything 3D. We're talking prosthetics. They'll even make you some drill equipment. They'll make you anything that you want.

So stick around. We're going to show you all the cool objects coming up.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

KAYE: Welcome back.

When you picture your perfect summer vacation, do the sun-soaked beaches of Libya come to mind? I'm guessing you may picture something a bit more like this. That was just eight months ago when rebels in Tripoli stormed the compound of former Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi.

Now we want you to take a look at this video taken from the same place earlier this month. We're looking at American, British and Australian tourists visiting Gadhafi's compound. Despite travel warnings to Libya they decided to take their chances in order to witness the historic changes being made there.

Nicholas Wood is the director Political Tours. It's a travel company whose destinations include Libya, Kosovo and North Korea. Nick, good morning to you, as I just mentioned, many of these countries have travel warnings in effect, but you believe that they're now safe for tourists?

NICHOLAS WOOD, DIRECTOR, POLITICAL TOURS: Well, we look at each situation very carefully, and we're not going to take people to an active conflict zone. We went to Libya last October just to make an assessment, and we thought, things were slightly edgy, but we thought it was safe enough to take a group there. And then just last week we came back from a tour, and we found people very welcoming. The situation was pretty stable. We had a low-level security team with us, just to keep an eye on things, and it went off fine. It was a great experience.

KAYE: I love how you explain that as slightly edgy. What do these tourists get to see when they go to Libya?

WOOD: Well, we're really trying to understand the motivations, the reasons behind the conflict. We take people to see local families, work out how a local community is living. We see the local political leaders. We really try and get under the skin of the place. We're not trying to dwell too much on the damage and the destruction.

This tour really is for people with quite a serious interest in current affairs. You know, the kind of people who watch CNN, they may read the "New York Times". There are people who are pretty serious about this.

KAYE: Do they get to meet any of the opposition forces and the rebels who have now taken over the compound there?

WOOD: That's right. We spent some time in Tripoli. We've met leaders of the NTC. We've met leaders of the local brigades and we've also met people who lost out. People who didn't really do very well out of the revolution, and I met also, some sympathizers of Gadhafi as well.

KAYE: It sounds like a fascinating conversation for them to have. These aren't exactly, you know, hot destinations. I would never call them that. So what gave you the idea to start tours like these and think that people would actually come?

WOOD: Well, I've got, I really don't like the phrase, war zone tourism. What we're trying to do is almost like act like a news organization and give people access to current affairs. So we do tours that don't dwell on conflict at all. So we're going to be doing a tour here in London that looks at the financial crisis. We have tours in Turkey. We'll soon have a tour in Scotland, looking at the road to independence there.

So the idea really is to explain to people, give them access to current affairs and not really dwell too much. But it really goes back to my experience as a reporter and how much I enjoyed it. And I thought, well, if I enjoy it, why can't other people try and do a bit of the same thing?

KAYE: How much does a trip like this cost? Obviously, there are different destinations, but give me an idea.

WOOD: I can say to you in pounds. You'll have to do the exchange.

KAYE: Oh no. I can't do the math in my head.

WOOD: Well, it's about 2,500 pounds -- $4,000 as a starter. And with the more -- places like Libya where we have, security, it's more. So that's about $6,000, I think.

KAYE: And what is -- I'm just curious about the feedback, you know. What do they tell you after this type of experience? The people who go on these? WOOD: People really have a really incredible experience. It stays with them a long time. We go to North Korea, for example, as well, and people stay in touch with us. And we organize other trips for them as well. So there's, it has a big impact, and we've, you know, we do find that people come back to us to go to other destinations as well.

KAYE: You have a Web site or something, in case anybody wants to check it out?

WOOD: Yes. It's politicaltours.com. Yes, you're welcome to look at it.

KAYE: All right. I may see on one of those adventurous. Nicholas Wood, thank you very much.

WOOD: Thank you Randi.

KAYE: All right, everybody. I want you to check something out. We have here in our studio, yes -- those are 3-D printers. They are hard at work. They're buzzing away behind me. You might be able to hear them. They can make anything. They actually printed my face and they can make it 3-D. So we're going to get a little mini-me and maybe you might want to make a little mini-you at home. We'll tell you how and show you how these work. Coming up.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

KAYE: Welcome back.

So imagine being able to print out actual things; print real three- dimensional objects like a cell phone case or a custom hearing aid just like you print out documents on your desktop printer. It sounds like something from "Star Trek" but it's actually coming to a home near you.

Abe Reichental, the CEO and President of 3-D Systems, he joins me now. This is fascinating. I've been listening to these things hum away in our studio all morning. What have you made here?

ABRAHAM REICHENTAL, CEO, 3-D SYSTEMS: Well, it's the sound of progress. Right? It's the sign of --

KAYE: A lot of progress.

REICHENTAL: Yes. So what we've been printing here is your CNN logo which we found to be a very good new application. You can see it on the table.

KAYE: And somewhere over here.

REICHENTAL: A couple of ears. A couple of nano-holders like the one that I'm having on my wrist. But of course, you can print anything. If you can dream it, if you can think it, you can print it and you can do exotic things like -- shoe.

KAYE: Yes, this fascinates me. Even a shoe; you can actually print a shoe. REICHENTAL: -- which is perfectly functional.

KAYE: Wow.

REICHENTAL: And of course, for years we've been printing anything from automobile prototypes to airplane parts, implants, some prosthetics, and hearing aids and invisiliners and now we're bringing this to the home.

KAYE: So how does it work? I mean I'm listening to them. But what does it do? It just builds it layer by layer or --

REICHENTAL: It builds -- 3-D printing is all about building geometries one layer at a time. Think of it like decorating a cake where you go and put the cake ingredients where you want them. It's the most efficient way to do it, because you get the net geometry without any of the waste and it really allows you to bring personal manufacturing to the home and to the garage entrepreneur. You don't have to do it some place in China.

KAYE: I'm sure anybody who's watching says, ok, that looks pretty cool, but that's got to cost a bundle.

REICHENTAL: Well, not so much.

KAYE: What are they --

REICHENTAL: It's true that 3-D printing used to be very complex and expensive. We're all about democratization and bringing it to the homes, so one of these cute little printers is $1,300. It's going on sale in the next few weeks. We're actually launching a state-wide Cube Odyssey. We're taking a few of these cubes, in a cube mission (ph) to 25 cities launching in Beverly Hills next week.

KAYE: Nice.

REICHENTAL: April 10th, and we're going to be in 25 cities promoting it, because we want kids in the ages of 8 to 80 to unleash their creativity and experience this in 3-D. When you come back to the cost, this is about $3.50 to you at home. Imagine.

KAYE: I see something over there, though, on table that looks kind of like me. Did you actually make this?

REICHENTAL: We actually made this, and we made it for you.

KAYE: Let me see this.

REICHENTAL: We made it yesterday.

KAYE: Oh, my gosh.

REICHENTAL: And we made it from your pictures, because this is all about --

KAYE: This is a mini me. REICHENTAL: It is a mini you. Look at the likeness.

KAYE: And so you just took --

REICHENTAL: And so we took -- we took two pictures of you with an iPhone app that we loaded and we could immediately create a 3-D replica immediately that you can enjoy.

KAYE: This is so funny. And how long does it take to make something like this?

REICHENTAL: Something like this took less than an hour to make.

KAYE: And then you paint it?

REICHENTAL: No. This one was printed in full color. Just like this -- we have a little app that basically allows any girl to design a dress.

KAYE: How cute.

REICHENTAL: So you can design and print your own dress.

KAYE: I need a body and a dress. Maybe I could just put these two together, and we'd be in business.

REICHENTAL: Well, we could fit you perfectly and then we can put you into the shoes.

KAYE: Right now I'm just a talking head which on TV they all tell us that that's what we are anyways.

REICHENTAL: So when you look at it, the possibilities are endless. So this is a glove that probably Michael Jackson would have died for. Just feel it.

KAYE: Yes. It's fascinating. You're making some great stuff and I love that you're making prosthetics as well. Thank you very much.

I'm going to hold on to this.

REICHENTAL: You enjoy.

KAYE: I'm not sure what to do with it but I'm going to hold to it. Imagine that, a mini-me.

All right. So, at least three winning tickets for Mega Millions; yes, we're going live to Athena Jones in Baltimore, Maryland, where the first winning ticket was announced.

That's next.
