Much needed review of European map....didn't do too hot on the second sction, but the first was pretty good, i thought. Finished newsstories. Lots of people gone today. SWINE FLU!!! lol, not really. Went over what the oral test is going to be about and what this week's assigned blog is. My topic on that is Sadam Hussain. So, then we continued the talk from yesterday about failed governments. Also, we are getting close do doughnuts. Go Dow Jones!Topics we went over today were the TFG (transitional federal goverment), Ethiopia's role in Somalia, the generation of Somali people (children and young adults, mostly...anyone born after about 1990) who don't know what a decent government looks like, and nation building. Nation building does not work unless the people of the nation in question are ok with outsiders helping them revise their homeland.Then we looked at a powerpoint, also preparing for the upcoming oral test, about the differences between Democrats and Republicans.
