It is Sunday, September 28, 2014. Babies who are born today will have the star sign Libra. People are currently enjoying their weekend. However, because it's a Sunday, some are dreading the days ahead.

Schools and colleges are starting again, and fall has officially arrived. As a result, temperatures are beginning to cool, and trees are starting to shed their leaves. The earthy smells of autumn have started to fill the air. In America, the song "All About That Bass" by Meghan Trainor is at the top of the singles charts, while "Changing" by Sigma featuring Paloma Faith is the number-one song in the UK.

Barack Obama is the President of the United States, and the movie The Equalizer is at the top of the box office. David Cameron is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Video rental stores such as Blockbuster are continuing to close their doors at the moment. Sadly, it seems as though they will be unable to compete with online streaming services such as Netflix and Hulu.

A social networking website called Vine is extremely popular at the moment. It is 2014, so the music charts are being dominated by artists such as Pharrell Williams, Katy Perry, John Legend, Iggy Azalea, Meghan Trainor, Lorde and Jason Derulo.

Scotland has just voted to remain within the United Kingdom. In celebrity news, Kris Jenner has filed for divorce from Bruce Jenner. In Mexico, 43 male students have been kidnapped and disappeared in Iguala, Guerrero. Reports suggest that the students were taken into custody by local police officers and then handed over to members of the Guerreros Unidos cartel.

If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Diem Brown, Stephanie Moseley, Junior Malanda, and Greg Plitt would all still be alive. On TV, people are watching popular shows such as "Mad Men", "RuPaul's Drag Race", "White Collar", and "American Horror Story". Meanwhile, gamers are playing titles such as "Clash of Clans", "Batman: Arkham Origins", "Rust", and "The Sims 4".
