Photos of president-elect Sen. Barack Obama covered the fronts of major newspapers throughout the world, from Prague to Panama, from Recife to Dubai. Though I can't translate the language of every headline, and I can't even begin to pronounce some of them, I'll try to give you a sense of what people are writing around the globe. Readers, if you speak a foreign language, post some headlines in the comments.
