In an uNPRecedented rescue effort, success, as the first of the 33 miners emerged from the earth after being trapped underground in Chile for a record 69 days. Family members and the Chilean president were waiting anxiously to greet them. The miners are being hoisted to the surface in a capsule through half a mile of rock. The capsule provides them with oxygen, a way to communicate with rescuers and within an escape patch. The cage tube is only 21 inches in diameter.

“It's incrediable that there we were down 700 meters and they recovered us.”

Each round of trip is taking about 50 minutes with each miner spending roughly 15 in the capsule. If all goes well, the final miner is expected to reach the surface sometime on Thursday.

"We have lived a magical night, a night that we will remember throughout our lives, a night, when life defeated death, in which hope defeated anxiety. This has been a night that makes us feel more human, more brotherly, with more strengthened will to face what the future will bring. I know that last night there were tears in every single home in Chile, tears of joy. I would like to thank many many people because the truth is that these miners have given us an example of how to face adversity, but also rescue workers have given us an example of how to be together. How are engineers, technicians and workers have given an example to the whole world as to how to carry out a rescue operation that seemed impossible.“

It'll be to the benefit of the Zionist officials to return to their own homes and to give back Palestine to its true owners and this storm of the anger infuriate the people of Palestine and freedom lovers, they will be destroyed.

If we want Americans--and America itself-- to succeed in the 21st century, we need to offer all of our young people the best education in the world has to offer. At a time when the umemployment rate for folks who've never gone to college is almost double what it is for those who have gone to college, when most of the new jobs being created will require some higher education, when countries that out-educate us today, will out-compete us tomorrow, offering our children a world-class education isn't a just moral obligation, it's an economic imperative.

Right now, "don't ask don't tell" is no longer the law of the land. And that plus to every man and woman in the US uniform, no matter where they are in the world. The group that brought this sue against the government, the Log Cabin Republicans, a gay rights group. There's still advising service members do not come out yet. That's because the US government still has 60 days to appeal this ruling and in effect, a Justice Department spokesman tells us they are reviewing the ruling right now.
