Well, history books will tell the story when the first African American President steps into the oval office. Congratulations to President-Elect Barack Obama, the United States’ 44th President. His online blog takes on a festive theme as he raises his hand in victory and salutation.

Barack Obama is due to set foot in the oval office on November 17 for a meeting with President George Bush. Aside from being a formal meeting for photo ops and tradition, this meeting will be one to discuss the transitional procedures to take place as the new President steps in.
Boy, I tell you, I’ve just been into Barne’s and Noble last night and, man, the magazines and newspapers are all Obama’s. I think that too is a record by itself! The American media are all eyes and ears to serve the latest news about Obama. Let’s see what happens next!

I have always believed that getting bullied is NOT the fault of the child who is on the receiving end of the aggressive behavior. It is the same reasoning behind believing that there is no excuse for men raping or beating women.
According to a recent study, however, there are certain factors that contribute to [...]
Every house has a first aid kit. That is basic knowledge. But do you have an emergency kit that will help keep you alive just in case you experience a natural disaster? At this point, many families in the Philippines are creating their own disaster emergency kits, if they haven’t got one [...]
