Scientists unearthed "hell".
All the information I have come to this very interesting, I want you to read a. Newspaper name "Ammennusatia" is translated from the French. Then translated into English and then translated into English it's been, I might have to modify the sentence a bit, or maybe spell it what it is not that's a long time ago, but I said I was not hands on. of life. The following is wrong about the contents of it.
Group of geologists drilling a hole into the ground, about 14.4 kilometers deep in the crust, then the gaze of the band is that they heard the shrill cries of the people in it. Shrill cry that sounded like the cries of the souls of men are being tortured are hard to come from the deepest of wells. Scientists say they fear that they will spill out into the world the power of the devil.
"We're exploring what is alarming is that we are very afraid of what will come next if the survey" Azzacov professor who heads the project in Siberia, said a statement.
"What is alarming is that very high temperatures of Earth's axis is calculated to approximately 1100 degrees Celsius or more than 2,000 degrees ° F" Azzacov said.
"This is very far from our experience, it seems like the place. Similar to what he called hell, surrounded by a warm fire and warm the core of the world ".
"What was discovered was the last thing is what makes our ears until they are very extreme, scientists are keen to explore this project. We tired to listen to audio from Mike Pon delicate chrome and fit into very small holes to explore. We have a new tool to better listen to all sides, but what is surprising is happening again, we hear some more. At first we think of the tools we use to insert into the hole, but we have to check carefully that it is not, of course, "explained Professor Azzocov.
"After that, we have a thorough check once again the result is a source of noise comes from the deepest point of the hole into more of what we heard it, I can not believe his ears and all. We hear of a man turning his back on the lottery and soon after, but it's much more human and more. Expected to be thousands. I. . " after the discovery of the gaze in this band. Scientists all showing signs of silent fear, and hope that what is inside the hole in it will not come out, "said Professor Azzocov.
"From birth, I never believe in anything underhand. Even God and the Bible, but I can not believe this. I believe I have been living that hell is real . " Professor Azzocov is over. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Clinton: US will push for UN commission on Myanmar - Boston.com
Its high time that the international community brings
the military despots of Burma for crimes against humanity.
And war crimes against their own people just like war enemies.
High time to bring another "Saddam Hussein" of Burma to justice.
And sincerely, the people in Thailand would learn that too.
As the international community today has zero tolerance of military
"war" for political agenda against political enemies.

Gloria Estefan - One Day in Your Life (Tribute to Michael Jackson - Liverpool Echo Arena 2009)
Michael Jackson, one of the most widely beloved entertainers and profoundly influential artists of all-time, leaves an indelible imprint on popular music and culture.
Commenting on his passing, Sir Howard Stringer, Chairman, CEO and President, Sony Corporation, said: “Michael Jackson was a brilliant troubadour for his generation, a genius whose music reflected the passion and creativity of an era. His artistry and magnetism changed the music landscape forever. We have been profoundly affected by his originality, creativity and amazing body of work. The entire Sony family extends our deepest condolences to his family and to the millions of fans around the world who loved him.”
Rolf Schmidt-Holtz, CEO, Sony Music Entertainment, said: “Michael Jackson's unsurpassed artistry and beloved music brought joy to every corner of the world. We join today with his millions of fans in expressing our profound sadness and we offer our deepest condolences to his family and loved ones. It was a true privilege for all of us in the Sony Music family to work with one of the most talented superstars in the history of music. We will miss him greatly.”
Martin Bandier, Chairman & CEO of Sony/ATV Music Publishing, said: “Michael was the kind of amazing talent that comes along once in a lifetime. He was an incredible recording artist, an insightful businessman, an unmatched performer, and a true icon. To all of us at Sony/ATV Music Publishing, he was also a trusted and passionate partner, who was very proud of our accomplishments. He will be dearly missed. We wish his children and entire family our deepest condolences.”
Five of Jackson’s solo albums – “Off the Wall,” “Thriller,” “Bad,” “Dangerous” and “HIStory,” all with Epic Records, a Sony Music label – are among the top-sellers of all time. During his extraordinary career, he sold an estimated 750 million records worldwide, released 13 No.1 singles and became one of a handful of artists to be inducted twice into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The Guinness Book of World Records recognized Jackson as the Most Successful Entertainer of All Time and “Thriller” as the Biggest Selling Album of All Time. Jackson won 13 Grammy Awards and received the American Music Award’s Artist of the Century Award.
Michael Jackson started in the music business at the age of 11 with his brothers as a member of the Jackson 5. In the early 1980s, he defined the art form of music video with such ground-breaking videos as “Billie Jean,” “Beat It” and the epic “Thriller.” Jackson’s sound, style and dance moves inspired subsequent generations of pop, soul, R&B and hip-hop artists.

Denver is situated in the high plains at the eastern edge of the Rocky Mountains, which protect the city from severe winter weather. These mountains, reaching higher than 14,000 feet, are the dominant feature of the area. The South Platte River bisects the city, and many creeks, small lakes, and reservoirs grace the metropolitan area. Denver's climate is semiarid and relatively mild, with more sunny days than either Miami, Florida or San Diego, California. Although visitors must make some adjustment to the high altitude, they find that the area's low humidity makes even the highest and lowest temperatures seem less extreme.

Building the Getty, (1997), Richard Meier
The Getty Center is a superb experience for the visitor, both for its architecture and for its collections. CV's first visit to the Getty in the late 1970's at its Malibu location left such a poor impression that we did not return for twenty years. What a difference twenty years and a billion dollars can make!
Funded with an endowment from the J. Paul Getty (read O-I-L) estate, the once small museum in its ersatz Roman villa has metamorphosed into a multifaceted institution involved in conservation, education, and research, as well as collecting great art, particularly painting, antiquities, photography, and decorative arts.
The Getty Center opened its new 110 acre campus on December 16, 1997 and attracted one million visitors during its first six months. The architect for the new center is Richard Meier, an American master of the modernist style. (We remember Meier's building for Atlanta's High Museum of Art in particular for its airy, open, light quality.) At the Getty, Meier had the rare architectural opportunity to design a whole complex of buildings in a contained environment. What he has done is not new or particularly innovative, but it is an impeccably controlled culmination of his dignified style.
When you visit, plan a couple of hours just for walking about the campus. Absorb the views of (and from) the site from different vantage points - different levels and varying locations. Every look you take will find a vista composed perfectly of line, space, volume, color, and texture. From the broad sweep to the smallest detail, every element of the architecture is right. It is an architecture of luxury, the rare situation where budgets did not constrain. CV believes it to be one of the transcendent aesthetic experiences of our time.
Take a break with lunch in the fine restaurant (advance reservation highly recommended). Then choose which area of the galleries is of most interest to you. This becomes a full day. There is more to see than can be taken in in one visit. Be selective so you don't become visually sated; save the rest for a future visit.
We chose the painting galleries. My, how well the Getty has collected in the last twenty years! If not exhaustive or in depth for any particular period or school, there are still enough masterpieces to pleasure the most discriminating eye. From Correggio to Rubens to Cezanne, the range is wide and the quality is fine.
Much publicity has focused on the crowds and the difficulty of a visit to the Getty. With a little forethought, you can have a smooth and comfortable day. First, if you can, go on a weekday, when there are fewer visitors. Second, go early in the day. Advance reservations for parking are booked well into the future. Instead of driving there, park your car somewhere along the route of the Santa Monica Blue Bus (#14). The bus takes you right to the Getty front entrance. No advance reservations are required for entry and there is no admission charge. Finally, do call ahead to the restaurant to reserve a table for lunch: . It is a superior experience to the cafe and will cap off a memorable day.

Holy places or holy faces
By John Halford
Our church headquarters finally moved from the location that had been home base for nearly 60 years. It is rather sad in some ways, although most of the people I know who work at HQ were ready to move. Those acres of California that used to be Ambassador College will always have a special significance particularly to those of us who went to college there.
Some people felt it was terribly wrong to sell what they considered a holy place. Although the church campus may have a traditional and a nostalgic significance, it was not a holy place. Neither is the new church office building, or any building we may occupy temporarily.
We can dedicate such buildings to God, and ask him to use them for holy purposes. But that is not the same as making them holy. Only God can do that, and he made it quite plain what he considers holy.
What is God sign that a place is holy? In the Old Testament, God consecrated (or made holy) the Tabernacle in the wilderness and later the Temple in Jerusalem. In both cases, when they were dedicated, fire came down from heaven. It was a sign that God was moving in (Leviticus 14:19-20; 1 Kings 8:10-11).
But after Jesus death and resurrection, everything changed. It was time for a new holy place. So on the day of Pentecost, the fire bypassed the temple, and landed instead in the upper room of an ordinary house. But it did not stop there. The house was not to be the new holy place. The fire divided, and individual tongues of flame rested on the heads of the first church members gathered there.
The meaning was clear to those who understood. No longer was a building to be the holy place people were. Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple and that God's Spirit lives in you? wrote Paul to the church in Corinth (1 Cor. 3:16-17).
Buildings come and go, and eventually crumble. But God dwells in and with the people he has called to eternal life. And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit (Eph 2:22).
