Joey was out picking up the movies, and Rachel was currently fixing her hair and touching up her makeup. She kept reminding herself that this wasn't a date, but with the mixture of nervousness and excitement coursing through her body, it sure as hell felt like a date.
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia<span> is a country situated in </span>Southwest Asia<span>, the largest country of </span>Arabia<span>, bordering the </span>Persian Gulf<span> and the </span>Red Sea<span>, north of </span>Yemen<span>. Its extensive coastlines on the Persian Gulf and Red Sea provide great leverage on </span>shipping<span> (especially </span>crude oil<span>) through the Persian Gulf and </span>Suez Canal<span>. The kingdom occupies 80% of the </span>Arabian Peninsula<span>. Most of the country's boundaries with the </span>United Arab Emirates<span> (UAE), </span>Oman<span>, and the </span>Republic of Yemen<span> (formerly two separate countries: the </span>Yemen Arab Republic<span> or </span>North Yemen<span>; and the </span>People's Democratic Republic of Yemen<span> or South Yemen) are undefined, so the exact size of the country remains unknown. The Saudi government estimate is at 2,217,949 square kilometres, while other reputable estimates vary between 2,149,690 and 2,24</span><span>0,000 sq. kilometres. Less than 1% of the total area is suitable for cultivation, and in the early 1990s, population distribution varied greatly among the towns of the eastern and western coastal areas, the densely populated interior oases, and the vast, almost empty deserts.

Gravity was written by Judith Ortiz Cofer. <span>Ortiz Cofer is best known for her works of
creative nonfiction, and she began her writing career with poetry, which she
felt “contains the essence of language.” </span>
The difference between Miss Maudie, Stephanie Crawford and Rachel Haverford is one of acceptance and love. Miss Maudie never condescends to Scout or Jem. She is not judgemental or bigoted. Miss Maudie talks to the children as equals and tells them the truth.
