    SOLAR HEATED HOUSE
    January 15, 1955 - Tucson, Arizona, U.S.A.

    The first U.S. house to be both solar-heated and radiation-cooled started its system. It was built in Tucson, Arizona by solar physicist Raymond W. Bliss, Jr. (6 Oct 1915 - 7 Nov 2004). The system was built at a cost of nearly $4,000 for labor and materials. It was made using a large slanted slab of steel and glass that converted sunlight into heat, which was directed into the house. Summer cooling used the same ducts and associated fans and controls. The first U.S. house to be completely solar heated was occupied in Dover, Mass. On 24 Dec 1948. That heating system was designed by Dr. Maria Telkes from the MIT Solar Laboratory, used black sheet metal collectors to capture solar energy, stored by the phase-change of sodium sulfate decahydrate in “heat bins.”

    RAZING OF JERUSALEM
    January 15, 1970 - Israel

    The first evidence was uncovered of the razing by fire, of Jerusalem by Roman troops led by General Titus in 70 A.D. upon orders from Caesar. Israeli archaeologist Prof. Nahumn Avigad excavated ruins in the Jewish Quarter of Old Jerusalem, a few hundred yards from the Wailing Wall. Three meters (10 feet) under the earth, he found two rooms with evidence of intense heat and ashes. One was apparently a pharmacy, with beautifully carved stone jars, stone weights, and measuring cups. The second was perhaps a woodworking shop. The coins were found which helped precisely date the event. Despite the destruction, the site was valuable because the objects were found buried there as they had been used.

ARTICLE CONTENT :

It is a substantially recognized concept that totality governments, especially belonging to the Middle East and Muslim world are regularly employed in unrelenting effort to strangle the high bred technologies of mass-media such as the internet from going against their regional or national privacies for political, security or diplomatic reasons. Western interests on the other hand, seem to be exploiting the powers of conventional media to move views of the world to advantage of their interest against other areas of the world and especially towards Middle East and the Muslim world.

Plentiful proofs show up that after the infamous attack on the World Trade Center on September 11; the relation between western powers and the Middle East and Islamic world have turned bitter. As an outcome, it is becoming quite evident that western mass media businesses are on a way to carry out negative information against the Islamic world and the Middle East. This is because they want to carry out later motives of their sponsorship, by confronting Muslim views as negative. The financial powers, economic and diplomatic influence to make it worse as these mass media giants make it simpler to make the propaganda much louder as it appears thereby regulating views of the world against the Muslim world.

The online magazines exploit underlying opportunities of modern mass media programs to circularize new perspectives, ideologies and ideas to the farthest part of the globe and also to balance views of the world on happenings that take place globally. Their main aim is to offer and provide facts and truth behind these events. So they offer an insight of the truth to the world, thereby changing their views. All the worlds 1.5 billion Muslim people take a look on the global issues and events and also form an authentic forum for good discussion among Christians, Muslims, Jews ore people from other religion and beliefs. So here the role of online magazine comes in.

What an online magazine requires is to be unbiased and provide news updated with time scale of one minute. They must also provide opinions of the public masses regarding events around them and around the globe. They must balance between the world news with an objective to promote brotherhood and peace. Broadcasting news must be authentic so as it does not influence people of other beliefs in a negative manner. That is what every online magazine must do. Healthy discussions must be taken into account on the news forum to promote social respect and required justice.
