response to breast cancer

    I read a blog about breast cancer. I learned many things. I learned that symptoms of breast cancer are lumps in the breasts. It can spread throughout your body. It is very common for women to have breast cancer. It not common for men to have breast cancer. I learned that this cancer is the second most common cancer in the world. This blog was very helpful. It taught all about breast cancer.

Dwarfism (achondroplasia)

Dwarfism is one of the many genetic disorders that make life harder for the people that have them. Dwarfism was discovered and named in 1967. The symptoms of dwarfism are poor growth, failure to thrive, short stature, short arms, short legs,subnormal intelligence, short feet and short hands. The complications are that you walk slower. There is currently no treatment for dwarfism. If you have dwarfism you die earlier then a normal person. More then 50 million people in the Us have dwarfism. Anyone is vulnerable to dwarfism. However some people believe that boys have a better chance of getting dwarfism then girls. Genes known as RMRP have mutated and have been known to cause dwarfism. I feel terrible for the people that have dwarfism. I feel terrible because they have a lot harder time then me.

IPhones are free in Japan!!!!!!!

In Japan iphones are free! If you have a smart phone in 2 years you can get a iphone for free. This offer is expected to end in May. Some people may want the 16GB which would cost $118. Japan has a very competetive cell phone market. A marketer thought that the iphone wouldn't sell well. I want to go to japan and by one now.

These bombs are causing cancer and therefor endangering many animals.These bombs were supposed to be safe to sealife. Unfortunately these bombs are majory affecting sea life. I hope scientists can figure out a way to stop this.

Giant Snake

Scientists find a snake fossil from 48 million years ago. This snake would have been 13 meters long and 2,500 pounds. Scientiscall this snake Titanoboa cerrejonensis. Titanoboa's fossilized remains were discovered at a coal mine in the tropical Cerrejon region of northern Colombia by a team of scientists. It would have had to be 86 to 93 degrees Fahrenheit for the snake to have survived. I think this is cool but im happy no snake was ever this big.

Report cards failing

Gov. Jon Corzine's goal of raising standards in New Jersey high schools is getting off to a bad start. Tons of middle school students are failing. New tests are being made to prepare students for what is to come.Responding to test data released today, people think that harder tests will make it easier for students to suceed in the later years to come. However other people think that the tests are getting to hard to fast.Fifth and sixth graders failed in badly on the proficiency test. In language arts, 40 percent of all fifth and sixth grade students failed. Some other districts had failure rates above 70 percents.Rich Vespucci thinks that the decrease in scores was exspected, but personally I think they made these tests way to hard
