11 year old mom

So could you believe an 11 year old mom ? well have you ever heard of a 11 year old pregnant girl giving a birth and the boy is suprise the boy is healthy. wow can’t believe myself. An 11 year old pregnant girl in the Northeastern U.S. gave birth to a baby boy this week. The name of the mother and baby have not been released to protect their privacy.

“My daughter and (her) baby are fine, and the baby is absolutely beautiful,” said the mother of the 11-year-old girl. The girl and her family are not being named in order to protect the new parent’s privacy.

According to Dr. Manny Alvarez, managing health editor of FoxNews.com, the girl’s age places her in significant danger.

“A very comprehensive approach to her care needs to be instituted early in her pregnancy,” Alvarez said.

A recent report by the Guttmacher Institute said teen pregnancies in the U.S. were up 3 percent in 2006. But this case is not about a teenager, noted Dr. Abdulla Al-Khan, a leading high-risk obstetrician — it’s about a pre-teen whose body is not yet built to carry a child.

“Her body is clearly not defined for pregnancy with its short stature,” Al-Khan said. “Her chest is not extensively developed for breast tissue, her bones aren’t quite fused, and once you expose a child this young to high amounts of progesterone and especially estrogen, there is (a possibility) that it could halt her growth.”

David Sills, a 13-year-old quarterback, has committed to USC.

According to ESPN Los Angeles, such a shockingly young commitment “has happened in college basketball previously, but is unprecedented for college football where it’s harder to project how a player as young as Sills will develop physically.”

Sills, who is only in 7th grade, told the Los Angeles Times that “it’s always been my dream to go to USC.”

The Orlando Sentinel, meanwhile, reports that USC coach Lane Kiffin has a history of recruiting youngsters. Last June, when he was coaching at Tennessee, he recruited 13-year-old safety Evan Berry.

Google is being sued by Chinese author Mian Mian

A Beijing novelist Mian Mian has sued google after Google scanned one of her books,Acid House, into its library. She is not alone in complaining about copyright issues raised by Google’s online library. The China Written Works Copyright Society is also looking for compensation for other Chinese authors whose work is included in the project.

On a case a Beijing judge has told the Chinese novelist Mian Mian, to hold settlement talks. After a two-hour hearing, the court ordered both sides to talk but did not set a deadline for reporting back, according to the author’s lawyer. She is seeking damages of 61,000 yuan ($8,950; £5,576) and a public apology.

The lawsuit was filed in October after Google scanned one of Mian Mian’s books, Acid House, into its library. Google said it had removed the book as soon as it learned of the lawsuit, but had no further comment on the case. Mian Mian writes risque novels – including titles such as Panda Sex and Candy – about China’s underworld of sex, drugs and nightlife. Most of her work is banned in China.

This is not the first case that Google is being sued for its library plan. France, Germany and the US have also objected to the Google book plan. In France, a court ordered Google to stop digitising French books without the publisher’s approval. The search engine was also told to pay 300,000 euros ($430,000; £268,000) in damages and interest to French company La Martiniere, which had sued for copyright infringement for scanning book excerpts.
In the US, Google agreed a $125m settlement with American authors and publishers – although this is still waiting for final court approval.
