America's Past

President Obama

Our 44th President of the U.S. is Barack Hussein Obama. He was born August 4, 1961 in Honolulu, Hawaii. His father was born in Kenya, and his mother was born in Kansas. His parents divorced 2 years later. His mother married Lolo Soetoro from Indonesia. There in Jakarta, Obama was taught in the Indonesian language. When Obama was ten, he returned to Hawaii to live with his grandparents. He was only the 3rd black student in his school. There he says, he experienced for the first time racism.

Rough Drafts for Issue Three

Who Dat?
8-0. I'm talking about the New Orleans Saints regular season record! The 8 stands for wins, not losses people! They have finally marched in! The Saints are averaging an impressive 37.9 points per game. The team has had a strong offense in the past few seasons with Drew Brees as quarterback, but it was about time the defense caught up. The Saints lead the entire NFL in offensive yards with 426.9 per game. They also lead in interceptions with 16. Impresseive, right? No other team in the NFC is undefeated. The Saints' next game is this Sunday at 1:00 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Who Dat?!?

Danish Homes & Dubai Women

Danish homes are futuristic but also a little wacky. Kids' rooms don't have doors! The beds don't look very comfortable. Would you like to take a shower in a bathroom with only a glass door? I wouldn't! There aren't many decorations or unneccesary furnishings. This particular home was very white. It was characterized by the neatness and organization.

The women in Dubai have maids. The homes are big and the layout is very open. This particular woman's mother-in-law sends her 3 meals a day. They have chefs, helpers, and drivers. All the families are very connected and live close. Basically, many people in Dubai live in what we in America would consider mini mansions.
