  1. May 19, 2010 South Korea says it now claims to have evidence that points to the North Korea in the sinking of a warship in March. The North continues to deny involvement while the South aims to bring the matter to the Security Council. South Korea says one North Korean died after a brief exchange of fire between the two sides in the Yellow Sea near the maritime border. "Our Korean People's Army was not founded for the purpose of attacking others. We have no intention to strike others first," Col. Pak, the naval spokesman, told APTN in the North Korean capital. "So why should we attack a ship like the Cheonan which has no relation with us, no need to strike it and we have no significance in doing so." North Korea has waged a slew of attacks on South Korea since the 1950-53 fighting ended, including the 1987 downing of a South Korean airliner that killed all 115 people on board. Pyongyang has never owned up to the attacks. North Korea also disputes the maritime border drawn unilaterally by U.N. forces at the close of the Korean War, and the waters have been the site of several deadly naval clashes. Detailed scientific analysis of the wreckage, as well as fragments recovered from the waters where the Cheonan went down, point to North Korea, investigators said. The bending of the ship's keel backs the theory that an underwater torpedo triggered a shockwave and bubble effect that tore the ship apart, the report said. The report also cites fractures on the main deck, statements from survivors and a sentry on a nearby island, and fractures and lacerations on the remains of deceased sailors. Pieces of the torpedo "perfectly match" the schematics of a North Korean-made torpedo Pyongyang has tried to sell abroad, chief investigator Yoon Duk-yong said. A serial number on one fragment is consistent with markings from a North Korean torpedo that Seoul obtained years earlier, Yoon said. "The evidence points overwhelmingly to the conclusion that the torpedo was fired by a North Korean submarine," he said. "There is no other plausible explanation." At Seoul's main train station, scores of people watched raptly as the investigator laid out the evidence against North Korea. "I'm afraid," said Naima Vela, 26-year-old student from Italy. "I still have a month or two to stay in Seoul and I don't know if I should." Near the Demilitarized Zone, tourists peered across the border into North Korea. "As a mother of a boy who is serving his military duty right now, I don't want a war to break out," Jeon Bok-soon said in Paju as she looked across the border into North Korea. "However if (North Korea) keeps mentioning war, I think we should also show our strong military power," she said. Associated Press writers Matthew Lee in Washington, Jay Alabaster in Tokyo, Kelly Olsen and Claire Lee in Seoul, and Chi-Chi Zhang in Beijing contributed to this report. South Korea will claim that a North Korean torpedo was the culprit in sinking their naval ship according to domestic media reports. The torpedo smashed into the ship, broke it into half, caused it to sink and killed 46 South Korean sailors. http://www.youtube.c...feature=related RECENT PAST TIMELINE: December 1991 Two Koreas sign nonaggression pact. June 1999 Six North Korean patrol boats repeatedly cross the Yellow Sea maritime border over nine days, prompting exchange of fire. South Korea says 20 to 30 North Korean sailors are killed, seven South Korean sailors wounded. June 2002 Firefight sinks South Korean boat; six South Korean sailors die during the salvage operation. November 2009 South Korea says one North Korean died after a brief exchange of fire between the two sides in the Yellow Sea near the maritime border. Refference 1.

  5. Association Press – Tue Dec 22, 2009 JERUSALEM – Christmas will never be the same again. A Roman Catholic priest employed by the Vatican is on-the-lamb for stealing the body of Jesus. That means historical Doomsday for the Roman Catholic Church. With Jesus found then He never rose from the dead. That means He was mortal and not the Son of God, as billions in the world believe. The priest’s name, withheld for his security, was last spotted in Jerusalem, Israel. Over one billion Christians worldwide won’t be Merry that “Jesus the Messiah” never rose from the dead. Thus, a mortal man. The commandment that dictates "thou shalt not steal" isn't exactly written in stone for this priest. He escaped with the skeleton and irrevocable proof. One source reports that he gave his life for falsehoods, lies and deception. And Father will reveal all to the world. He sent a letter, pictures, and historical proof to the author of the fiction, debut thriller HOLY AUTISM. Father told a confirmed source, “Holy Autism helped me solve one of the world’s biggest mysteries, but it didn’t say Jesus was dead.” Fact or coincidence, father also used Dan Brown’s Da Vinci Code that sold 60 million copies. As thousands of telephone calls pour into church parishes worldwide, the Vatican has demanded privately for news services to remove the “Jesus Found” articles from public view. The Vatican has a long history of hiding damning news. A best seller occupying the prime place of sales in Spain and Portugal entitled “The Sexual Life of the Clergy".brought out a powerful ecclesiastical hierarchy that called on journalists from all news medias to silence the book. However, black unmarked helicopters are flying in and out of Vatican City, darkening the mystery over a soon-to-be troubled sky over holy Rome.
  6. White House Christmas Facts * A member of the National Christmas Tree Association has presented a tree to the White House every year since 1966 when Lyndon B. Johnson was president. 2009 is the 43rd presentation. * The tree is actually presented to the First Lady, and by tradition, she accepts the tree on behalf of the people of the United States. * Every year, the tree is displayed in the "Blue Room" and is venerated the Official White House Christmas Tree. * Each holiday season special care and attention is given towards lavishly adorning the "First Tree" with ornaments from the official White House Historical Association's collection of commemorative collectible ornaments. Each one honors the Presidential Administration of an American President of days gone by, and unknown to many, all years are available to the public. * It is rare for growers to repeat as national tree Champions. In fact, in the history of the contest, only six have repeated as Grand Champions. * To win the national contest, a grower must first win their state or regional competition. For example, the in 2004, the Chapman's tree competed against approximately 25 trees in the Wisconsin Christmas Tree Association’s Contest to become eligible to take a tree to the national contest. To become national champions, they then had to beat the 27 other entries at the National Convention. * If you would like to see the collection of Official White House holiday decorations, visit the WhiteHouseChristmasOrnament.com website. * For information on care and recycling of Real Christmas Trees, or to have fresh cut real Christmas trees wreathes and garlands delivered to your door by FedEx, visit the Santa's Forest Christmas Tree Farm - www.FreshChristmasTree.com
