2) Hussein, born on August 4, 1961 in Honolulu, Hawaii. He attended most of his schooling in Jakarta until he was ten years old. He then returned to Honolulu and did the rest of his schooling until his graduation from high school in 1979. Following high school, he moved to Los Angeles, where he studied at Occidental College for two years. He then transferred to Columbia University in New York City, where he majored in political science with a specialization in international relations. Then he worked at the Business International Corporation and then at the New York Public Interest Research Group and later moved to Chicago, where he was hired as director of the Developing Communities Project (DCP), a church-based community organization.

4) George Safford began his career as a teacher of telegraphy. To supplement his teaching income, he started selling pens for the John Holland Pens Company. In fact, his telegraphy students were his main customers. When the pens he sold malfunctioned, he felt obligated to fix them. Soon overwhelmed with repair work, he decided to invent his own version of the fountain pen. Thus, his famous idea of "making a better pen" came to life. How is his invention known to the outside world..?

5) A dog may be man's best friend but a gleaming new car is often man's pride and joy – and never the twain should meet. But careless canines now face a shock if they do their business over their owner's new car. Electric shock technology unveiled in the latest model of its car should ensure no peeing poodle feels too cock-a-hoop after cocking a leg. A pet who relieves itself over the new model's wheels will get quite a buzz out of it – as an unpleasant 200 volts shoots through its body. Which automobile giant cameout with this innovative concept of keeping the pets at bay..?
