Welcome to Maternity Hotel California - RollingStone.com

eter and Ellie Yang, by all outward appearances, are living the Beijing dream. They have a condo in an up-and-coming area, a white Honda that Peter keeps immaculate and a rambunctious one-year-old son, Xiongxiong. But when Ellie found out she was pregnant in 2014, Peter said he wanted to have their second child in America. "It's for him to get a good education," Peter says. " Sidebar Peter began researching maternity hotels that operate within the underground birth tourism industry. He chatted with sales agents and scanned large photos on forums like LA Fat Dad, USA Baby DIY and America Baby Home. One option was staying in a single-family home, rented solely to birth tourists, but moving into a close-knit residential community as part of a rotating cast of pregnant Chinese felt risky. Renting an apartment in San Francisco, as some of their friends had done, was less expensive and lower profile, but Peter didn't know anyone there. At last he and Ellie agreed on a "middle of the road" option — a 16-room hotel in suburban Los Angeles for $20,000. At the end of October, Ellie and Peter — who asked to use pseudonyms — boarded a 10-hour flight from Beijing to have their second... The decision had made Ellie uneasy from the start.

The Mini: How It Changed the World of Small Cars - The Cheat Sheet

Of the thousands of car models that have come and gone throughout history, only a select few have become popular enough to be known by just their nameplates. But only one car has actually become its own automaker, outliving the brands that spawned it, and has become so iconic, that it’s not only a national treasure in its home country, but a design that’s a legally-protected trademark. It was outdated and left for dead for most of its lifespan, but had became a cherished icon by the time its 41-year production run ended in 2000. But while the original Mini’s story ended in the 21st century, it was born out of geopolitical... Fueled by equal amounts indignation and the need to keep customers in showrooms, British Motor Corporation president Leonard Lord launched a project called ADO15, an affordable, fuel-efficient car that could weather the hard times and keep buyers... Like the development of the Citröen 2CV in the 1930s, the ADO15 car needed to be simple, but BMC’s requirements called for some serious innovation. They turned to Greek-born engineer Alec Issigonis, who had already penned the best-selling Morris Minor (1948-’71 production run, over 1. 3 million sold) to design the car.

Weekend round-up: The most read stories from July 25 to July 31 - Waterloo Cedar Falls Courier

CLARSKVILLE | Julia Benning lived on a farm near Clarksville, but she wanted to experience the wider world. She had pen pals in Michigan and Scotland and shared with them her righteous rants about small-minded prejudices against black people, Indians and young women who spoke their mind and didn’t conform in dress or behavior. Her family didn’t know where this came from but accepted it. The oldest of five daughters of Lowell and JoAnn Benning, Julia had been the picture of a good farm girl, following her father around to do chores as a youngster, growing into a... But with no money to attend college, Julia went to nearby Waverly to find a job after high school. She settled for trying to find a job at a bowling alley, but they already had stacks of job applicants. That’s when Julia, 18, walked into the Sir Lounge in Waverly and was hired on the spot as a cocktail waitress. This was a girl more likely to go to church camp than a party, one who had experienced only a couple of dates in high school, despite her good looks and free spirit. Julia wrote in her diary: “Everyone at school, home and everywhere else was duly shocked and amazed to think good ol’ Julie was working in a ‘strip joint,’ as they inelegantly termed the Sir, which is.
