 When the President of Bolivia, Evo Morales has nationalized some very large mines in the country, he laid the foreign operators who put in all infrastructure, and invested all the money by digging up these resources . These foreign investment companies, and companies that were running operations lost everything, and they had to pay royalties and taxes to the Bolivian government under contract. Evo Morales said in a speech that these resources belong to the Bolivian people, particularly Aboriginal people of Bolivia, and the Indians native to this land. Similarly, he said that the money was generated from minerals taken from these mines belong to the Bolivian people and the money generated should be used to help them live better, not Profiteers foreign companies. This sent shock waves throughout the community of foreign investors, and Bolivia was quickly removed from the short list of foreign countries to invest in it turns out, when Bolivia has taken over the mines and drove the foreign they do not know enough about the mining industry and mining to be sufficiently effective to make a profit. In the meantime, Morales had promised the Bolivian people that by taking over the mines they could afford to pay for services to the population by the government. Now, the president of Bolivia is running for re-election and most farmers have taken over other small mines, saying they are owners. This causes a new set of shock waves, and yet nothing is done. It seems that the president of Bolivia has started something he can not finish now, and so close to the election, said not a word. According to Reuters Newswire; "ANALYSIS-Bolivia Morales turns blind eye to the seizure of the mine," Thu 15 October 2009, by Diego Ore; "Dozens of mines seized by the peasants are adding to the woes of industry Bolivia's mining dilapidated, but the leftist government is unlikely to take action against the squatters ahead of a presidential election. "It seems that the socialist tactic led the crowd in Bolivia, and it seems to be foreshadowing of things to come. Bolivia is certainly at a crossroads, and although the country was once a rising star in South America, things are pretty bad these days. Even as a rogue communist and socialist nations move to do business with the government. Please consider this.

 The Big Island of Hawaii, home to fire, ice, and beautiful tropical beaches, is also the world's best site for studying the stars. Rising over 13,000 feet above the clear blue water are two giant shield volcanoes, Mauna Kea and Mauna Loao. These peaks are so high that in winter are often covered with snow and the locals drive to surf the powder. That height also makes it a great place to build telescopes, and the largest in the world are on top of Mauna Kea.Astronomers build telescopes on top of mountains to put them on the moisture and air turbulence that can cloud their images of stars and galaxies. Mauna Kea is special but also for observers of the mountain. The air above the mountain is extremely stable. This lack of turbulence makes it the best site in the world. The only place with better conditions and external space.Astronomers began the construction of telescopes on Mauna Kea in 1960. In the early 90s, astronomers at the University of California, finished building the largest in the world, the twin Keck observatories. Each of these telescopes has a primary mirror that is over 30 meters wide, about half basketball court.In addition to the twin Keck telescopes, Mauna Kea is home to the National Observatory of the United States (the Gemini telescope) and Japan ( the Subaru telescope). Over the last fifteen years, these large telescopes have revolutionized our understanding of the universe. Using these telescopes, astronomers have discovered planets around other stars, new planets in our solar system (these are about the size of Pluto), and have identified a super black hole at the center of our galaxy. On a clear morning you can see the telescopes that glisten in the sun on the summit of Mauna Kea. But it is a night where they really come alive. The Dome and the starlight that has traveled for billions of years all over the world finally makes its way into the telescope and is recorded by the cameras and studied by astronomers. If you visit the Big Island of Hawaii, you can visit the telescopes. There are several tour groups that will take you from your hotel tropical beach in front of the towering summits of the mountains. Hawaii Forest and Trail provides a great tour that includes dinner at the historic Parker Ranch, a drive up the mountain for the sunset view of Maui and the Pacific Ocean, and a walk on the domes of darkness descends on the mountain telescopes.After , the tour continues. A quick trip back to 9000 feet, we reach the visitor center, where there's always hot chocolate and a chance for you to look through small but very large telescopes. You might get to see the craters of the moon, the rings of Saturn or Jupiter's Great Red Spot. Some nights you can see galaxies that light has traveled for millions of years to reach the earth. Whatever you end up seeing the evening will be magical.Mauna Kea is a sacred place for the Hawaiian culture. In Hawaiian mythology, is the home of Poliahu, the goddess of snow, the snow cover which keeps the old dormant volcano. Mauna Kea today continues to inspire the people of Hawaii and her many visitors, opening a window to the sky just as it did for hundreds of years of Hawaiian civilization.

 Virgin sacrifices took place in Machu Picchu More than 50 tombs have been excavated at the site of Machu Picchu, and a pile of bones of women are initially was originally speculated that the sacrifices of virgins may have taken place there. However, while human sacrifice might have been an integral part of Inca religion and performed at major festivals it was more likely that children were sacrificed and a series of children's mummified remains were found in the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu. A more detailed analysis of the bones are actually in the famous citadel show that many women had actually had children, and men also remains have been found in the land. The reference virgin probably occurred because the young priests, women sometimes known as "The Virgin of the Sun" which was thought to teach in Machu Picchu. Machu Picchu population were massacred by the Spanish Army This theory can be completely excluded, although historians are still not entirely sure why the Incas of Machu Picchu on the left know the deal was not visited by the Spanish. For starters, no signs of the Spanish colonization of the Inca Trail. Nor is a destruction of the area that could have been caused by military force and the area remains very well. It is believed that the Spanish would have had an extreme disadvantage if he planned to massacre the population and the Inca Trail trek to the top are left vulnerable. All these reasons and the fact that none of the bodies found in the place seemed to have died from violence completely exclude a slaughter by the Spanish army. The war between the tribes Why or how the Inca population disappeared, which is still disputed among historians. One theory is that another tribe killed the Inca population. This is a possibility, because we know that when the Emperor Huayna Capac defeated the Caranques, ordered the death of all other members of their community. However, we also know that the bodies found dismiss the idea of death by violence. So while we often hear stories of violence and slaughter that leads to the conclusion of Machu Picchu and the Inca ceremonial center, is more likely that people may died of an epidemic such as syphilis and malaria, or simply left the scene in the death of its creator. Whatever the reason for abandonment of the magnificent deserted Inca city then became "lost" with the outside world, with only a few indigenous Quechua people aware of their existence until explorer Hiram Bingham stumbled on a jungle Machu Dresses Picchu in 1911.
