It is very easy to use. Just roll your cursor over the location for a quick view. Select the PDF view for enlarged readable print. Select the link to the newspaper's website to fully access the newspaper, using your browser's language translator to read the ones not in your native language.

Hi S...I really understand your comment. We just were in Chile with Obama and the front cover of every paper had his photo (or caricature of him!). The headlines were very extreme in some cases. I was even interviewed by some television about my views on the situation. I thought Obama came to speak about nuclear power but instead they were questioning "The American Views" on Cuba, Chile's torrid past, and other points that I wasn't comfortable with! YIKES! (if only they asked my views on luxury accommodations around the world!!)
