Freedom Tower, the building that will replace the World Trade Center towers prostrate in 2001, will be completed in the Tower 2012.

Freedom Tower will lift more than 540 meters (1776 feet, a figure chosen to refer to the year of the Declaration of Independence, the year when it was signed) above Manhattan, will have a cubic base and host more than 240,000 square meters of office space. In 2012, at 11 years from the attacks of September 11, the tower will be opened. On the area where the two towers collapsed is also located a monument to commemorate the 2986 people who lost their lives in the major terrorist attack in the United States.
At the end of February 2008, 9,400 tons of the nearly 50,000 tonnes were known to ease the tower that had already been ordered.

Steel beams that will form the skeleton of the Freedom Tower are made up at the Archs factory, located in the city of Luxembourg Differendange. In October 2008, the construction has already begun to rise from the ground, falling to about 4 feet above the level of refueling. In 2006, the tower project was made public, was intended as Freedom Tower to become the tallest building in the world, but that position was already occupied by the Burj Dubai, with a height of 818 meters.
The process of building the tower meant in the same time the exhumation of remains which weren’t recovered, once with the digging of foundations which weighs 120 tonnes. Around 40% of victims of that terrorist attacks were never identified. Another little known aspect is that the remains of more than 700 people were found after September 11 on the roof of a 40-story buildings, located opposite the twin towers.

In Homestead from Florida was built the well known Coral Castle which is one of the strangest man-made structures, comparable to the complex of Stonehenge, ancient Greek temples and Egyptian pyramids.

This Amazing building was conceived, designed and made by one man, Edward Leedskalnin, a Lithuanian immigrant. It seems that he discovered the secrets of the pyramids and levitation. The chosen materials for building were incredible. He used huge blocks of coral rocks, some weighing up to 30 tons. The way he managed to move them still remains wrapped in a total mystery, considering that he could not call at that time, to the aid of modern machinery.

To build the walls and the towers, there were used around 1,000 tons of coral rocks, another 100 tonnes being used for the confection of furnishing and many other art objects. The obelisk weighs 28 tonnes. The wall surrounding the Coral Castle measures about 3 feet height and is made of huge stone blocks which weigh, each, several tons. Battlements are posted on the 6 feet high walls. The heaviest block weighs 35 tonnes. Some of the pieces of stone are twice heavier than the blocks used in the Great Pyramid of Gizeh’s construction.

Edward Leedskalnin went even further with the imagination and he even thought to decorate the castle garden with sculptures, tables and chairs, all made of coral. It even exists, in the bottom called “sanctuary”, a 30-tonne obelisk, 12 m high, and a mini solar observatory, all of stone, of course. The only closed complex structure, the tower, stayed locked during the Leedskalnin’s life. In the bedroom, he placed two beds for children, a swing, a table and a chair. In the whole building there are no facilities, no pipes or cables.
Working alone for 20 years, between 1920 and 1940, to build the house that he called  the Stone Gate Park, Leedskalnin actioned so that after he was being abandoned by his fiancee because he was poor and old.
This sentimental failure turned Edward into a withdrawn individual, totally dedicated to the creation of a great thing, to embody his love. Therefore, the Coral Castle is rightly compared with another temple of love, Taj Mahal, only the latter was built in more than 20 years by thousands of slaves, while this amazing complex in Florida is the work of an only man.

The Galapagos Islands are located in the Pacific Ocean, being some of the most isolated islands on the earth. The whole archipelago is composed of 13 large and medium islands and islets and rocks almost deserted. The 13 islands with sizes varying from 45,000 square kilometers to 14 kilometers square is practically a miracle of nature, a paradise whose existence confirms the theory of evolution but the perfect balance of nature.

The position of these islands amid some extremely strong ocean currents favored the evolution of several species on the island, a unique evolution worldwide. An absolutely fascinating thing is that on these islands, animals are not afraid of humans. His intervention was very supeficial until 15 years ago. This feature as well as the exceptional biodiversity of this ecosystem unfortunately attracts lots of tourists every year. The firsts whoaffected this perfect balance were the sailors of the seventeenth century who brought on the island both microbes and infected animals or with a modified behavior such as: wild cats, dogs, rats, were first outrsiders in the middle of the Pacific paradise
.
The Galapagos Islands were formed because of the eruption of volcanoes about 4, 5 million years ago. Since then, they are in a constant change, but the volcanoes are still being active.

Each island is different from the other, and the multitude of species surprises even now many researchers. It is probably the only natural place on the earth where penguins and flamingo birds share the same square foot of sand. Sea lions, turtles, dolphins and a unique species in the world of penguins are very friendly, extremely gentle and fearless people.
