I mean I posted a news item...
http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/story/0,22049,21922540-5001028,00.html
RENOWNED British scientist Sir Isaac Newton, the father of modern physics and astronomy, predicted the world would end in 2060 in a 1704 letter that went on show in Jerusalem today.
A famed rationalist, who secured a royal exemption so that he would not have to follow the teachings of the Church of England, Newton nonetheless based his prediction on a Biblical text.
Working from verses in the Book of Daniel, the elaborator of the classical laws of gravity, motion and optics argued that the world would end 1260 years after the foundation of the Holy Roman Empire in western Europe in 800 AD.
The letter, on show at Jerusalem's Hebrew University as part of an exhibition entitled 'Newton's Secrets', is part of an array of papers of the British scientist bequeathed to the institution by a wealthy collector of scientific manuscripts.
The university said it was the first time the letter had been put on public show since 1969.
Newton's late 17th century work at Cambridge University was the foundation stone of modern science until the discovery of relativity and quantum mechanics in the last century.
But it has long been known that the ground-breaking physicist from Grantham, England, also took a keen interest in superstitions of his day that have long since fallen foul of modern science.
Newton spent four years in the 1670s preparing a work on alchemy, the notion that base metals can be turned into gold.

Robins:
Abduction of Muslim traders on rise in Sri Lanka
June 17 (Dawn) Demanding the resignation of Muslim government ministers, the main opposition, the UNP, has criticised the government for not taking action to stop the abduction of Muslim businessmen.
This is false propaganda by LTTE - paid journalists to imply that these arrests are not only for LTTE killers but also for others AND IT IS NOT TURE.
MUSLIMS PARLIAMENTARIANS HAVE DENIED STORY AS FALSE.
LTTE wants to prove that it is simply the break down of LAW AND ORDER and not the arrests of LTTE KILLERS SPREAD ALL OVER THE ISLAND. |

| It is good Richard Boucher, Envoy Yasushi Akashi and Facilitator Erik Solheim will meet in Oslo to discuss CFA in SL on June 25 and 26. However, they should not intefere with present military operations as stopping them will provide to reorganize and continue their war aganst GOSL. Over 95% of Sri Lankans do not want to give LTTE demands and if co-chair agrees any solution closer LTTE demands will not give any result. |

World would end in 2060 Chances are 50%only.But half of the world will end 100% according to Newton's own theory.Nothing can be 100% destroyed since 50% is always already destroyed.But when half gets destroyed the other half get recreated.Thats the nature of the nature,universe,God and You and me.

Franklyn:
Its not Ltte Demands. its We Tamils demand. If you cant give, ....dont worry we will take it
It is our time to wake up and show who we are.
It is not the LTTE what is important now. it is something more sinister than that.
We need to understand that.
