Usain Bolt missed the oppotunity to win the championship

Today, the world fastest runner, Usain Bolt, was disqualified, because he broke out of the starting block early in the morning in South Korea.  I feel disappointed. Everyone does.  Everybody doesn't want a world 100-meter final race without Usain Bolt.  It seems like that Bolt has been injured for about one year. Maybe his status is not good. As it is a world competition, he would be a little bit nervous possibly. These factors make this breaking out of the starting block early happened.

Scientists considered them the world most horrible, terrible and destructive pests because they can damage the grain. The beetles were in south Asia.

Steve Jobs resigns from Apple

Today, Steve Jobs resigns from Apple in a stunning move that ended his 14-year reign at the technolog giant he founded in a garage.  Now the situation of his pancreatic cancer is very serious. He had to do that. Cook will replace him as the CEO of Apple Inc. For me, it is a very bad news. Steve made the status of Apple rises. He created Ipod, Iphone, Ipad. It is awesome. Apple needs him.

the earthquake in Indonesia

A huge 6.0 earthquake destroyed the coast of Indonesia at 3:12 a.m. local time. The meteorologists think the reason that this earthquake happened because Indonesia is situated a series of wrong lines that make the island impossible to volcanic and seismic activity. Every year, everyday there are a lot of seisms happened. Some are big, some are small. But it really hurts people. I have tasted what the really big earthquake is like in 2008. It killed a huge of people. Amount of children were becoming homeless. It really scared.
