Using the latest web video broadcasting technology, here is the live on-air broadcast feed in Castellano (Castillian Spanish) from TV Chile in the capital city of Santiago about the giant 8.8 earthquake near Concepcion, Chile. A massive tsunami warning In Chile and Peru!
Chile is not Haiti. It is the most economically develop country in all Latin America, and the Chilean people have experienced several "Great Quakes" in the last 200 years. Hopefully the causalities and damage is minimal.

This is an excerpt from the DVD - "September 11, 2001 - As It Happened - A Composite."
The fastest human being ever, 22 year old Usain Bolt of Jamaica did the impossible again. He surpassed his herculean & cocky performance of last year's 100 Meter world record of the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics yesterday, August 16, 2009, at the World Championships!
According to respected sports doctors and physiologist, Usain Bolt is a physical, anatomical, and physiological "Phenomenon" because of his almost 6'6'' height (197 centimeters). Before Bolt's Summer Olympics achievement last year, it was an accepted fact that human beings above 6'5'' (195- 1/2 CM) are physiologically incapable of producing the best times in the sprint races (60, 100, 200, & 400 meters).
Well, Bolt has dumbfounded the scientific community and sporting world again. Look at what he did yesterday at the World Track & Field Championships in Berlin, Germany. In the fastest 100 Meter field in history, which included American record holder Tyson Gay and fellow Jamaican Asafa Powell (the former Fastest Human Ever), Bolt annihilated the competition!!!
Look in HD video, Usain "Lightening" Bolt is an athletic god among mere humans. He really is ..............SUPERMAN!!!
Video from Rai Sports in Italy, Bolts super human performance.
