This article is about a research scientists did and concluded that being bald or having short hair can prevent tumors. Those researchers found the tumor rate and compared with the ones that their hair became thinner at the age of 30 and the ones that did not suffer with hair problems. Scientists believe that approximately 25% to 30% of men in their 30’s will have some problems with their hair-loss. Hair-loss is caused when certain substances called dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Experts found out that men with high level of testosterone have a higher possibility of losing hair.
Our opinion about this article is that men at their ages from 30~50 shouldn’t have very long hair because they would have a high possibility to have tumors. We think that if you have long hair in a very young age you will have tumors in your brain. But we think that this is not true because how can long hair affect a tumor in the brain. This can’t be true because long hair can’ affect your brain. Another thing is that if the girls have long hair why don’t we have constantly tumors and sometimes die.

Internet threatens rare species, conservationists warn
Internet threatens rare species, conservationists warn

Lately, the internet has been one of the biggest threats to rare and endangered species. Many conservationists are saying that the internet has made it easier for people to sell and buy animals. They can sell baby lions and even a polar bear pelt. They sell them thorough online auctions and chatrooms. One of the conservationists said that thousands of endangered species and rare animals are regularly bought and sold through the internet. Conservationists say that it is almost impossible to estimate the size of this problem. They say that the United States is the biggest market but Europe, China and Australia also have very large markets. One animal that is really being affected is the Iranian Salamander that according to the World Wildlife Fund has been devastated by the internet trade. If the world keeps doing this the endangered and rare species might someday disappear.
We think this story is really sad, but it isn't surprising we are doing it. It is horrible that some people are selling unique, innocent species only to get money.Internet has always had good and bad things about it, and this only makes internet a worse and full of crime place. We should do something about it, animals cant speak up for themselves! This affects us because the planets wildlife is being attacked, and we might not see some animals, nor will our children. Also all animals have a purpose on earth, and the balance of things might be changed and our whole world affected. It sad that campaigns to protect animals have been defeated because it is one of the cruelest crimes ever done by humans, as many as they are. Looks like the purpose of human beings is actually to destroy the world.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/8551481.stm
International Women's Day is a day that helps women to have their pregnancy period to be normal and secure and also peacefully. There are many women in the world that are dying during their pregnancy or labor. Some others countries have experienced too many deaths in many countries. One of the most countries that had experienced woman death during pregnancy time is in UK 100 years ago and now they are having the same problem. There are also many countries like in England and Wales they say that 355 women had died. Another country is Scotland and the Irish Republic they say that the rank is about 572 or 531 and many other countries. Especially, in Nepal and Rwanda are mostly helping the progress in women’s health. For example, in Mongolia, women’s deaths were reduced by taking them into special places in which women can be able to give birth.
Our opinion about this article is that its very good that they created this day because it help all the women that have the risk of dying during there pregnancy or labour period.Many women die each year because of pregnancy period and this day can help reduce all those deaths. We think womens need to be less stressed during their labour time. To make this happened they have to be positive that they wont die. another posibilities to survive the labour time. they also need education how to take care of themselves and the baby.

More than 2 million affected by earthquake, Chile's president says
February 28, 2010
CNN
http://edition.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/americas/02/27/chile.quake/index.html
On Sunday in the morning earthquake of 8.8 magnitude happened in Chile. 2 million people have been affected by this earthquake. 300 people have died and 15 are still missing. This earthquake was a lot higher than the one that happened in Haiti on January that had a magnitude of 7.0. The damage in Chile was very bad in a large area. A 15-story high building collapsed near the city of Concepcion. The president announced that all the events will be canceled for the next 72 hours and that school years will start until March 8 (originally they would start on March 1). The earthquake was at 3:34 a.m. The earthquake was followed with 76 aftershocks with magnitudes of 4.9 or greater.
Our opinion about this news is that people in Central America should rebuilt their homes because the cause of the destruction of homes is the least consideration of building houses. For example, we think that more brick pillars should be built inside the houses because they support the roof so the family and the house are both safe. We think that the world must be alert about this situation on earthquakes because nobody knows what would happen at any time. Many people have comments about a tsunami on Hawaii and Japan. We don’t think that tsunami will be available because a tsunami is processed in 24hours.
