Times Log Week 2

Thursday: Recently there has been a ton of buzz surrounding the unbelievable story about the octuplets that were born. This peculiar case was briefly brought up in my Making Babies class so I was interested to read about it in the Times today. This article; however, wasn't solely about Nadya Suleman's octuplets, rather the negative effects such multiple births have on the medical industry and economy. For example, multiple births can result in low birth weights, long term disabilities, and thousands of dollars worth of medical care. I also found the story about a driver who towed a body under his car for 20 miles without noticing. The story was absolutely unbelievable.
