The United States of America (USA), commonly referred to as the United States (U.S.) or America, is a federal republic composed of 50 states, a federal district, five major territories and various possessions. The 48 contiguous states and Washington, D.C., are in central North America between Canada and Mexico. The state of Alaska is in the northwestern part of North America and the state of Hawaii is an archipelago in the mid-Pacific. The territories are scattered about the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. At 3.8 million square miles (9.842 million km2) and with over 320 million people, the country is the world's third or fourth-largest by total area and the third most populous. It is one of the world's most ethnically diverse and multicultural nations, the product of large-scale immigration from many countries. The geography and climate of the United States are also extremely diverse, and the country is home to a wide variety of wildlife.
Street Child is a debut album by Mexican alternative rock vocalist, Elan. It contains her biggest hit, Midnight.
Ricardo Burgos from Sony Music called Street Child "a history making release in Latin America".
Child United is an international relief organization with a focus on education. The volunteer-led humanitarian group also provides disaster relief assistance to countries in desperate need. Their main mission is to empower the poorest children in the developing world, believing that educating a child will lead them, their family and eventually their community out of poverty.
Child United began in Seattle on May 1, 2007. While on a family vacation to the Philippines in 2006, Seattle resident Christine Umayam was struck by the poverty she witnessed. After another trip the following year, she quit her corporate job and founded the organization.
In 2009, the organization expanded its focus after Typhoon Ketsana struck Asia. "When we found out that there was so much devastation in the Philippines," said Umayam, "we just had to change our focus and put it out there for relief." The Congressional Medal of Honor Foundation selected Child United's founder as one of 10 national finalists in 2011 for the Citizen Before Self Award in the category of Americans who have made a difference in the lives of others through continued commitment to putting others before themselves. Although it did not award Umayam a medal, the Foundation said that she "has helped thousands of the poorest children, who are susceptible to sex trafficking and child labor, by sponsoring children who want to learn, building learning centers and sending educational supplies abroad."

Already Sept. 11, 1 is sign of 111, the Trinity of Units. But the 4120 days before the end of the Mayan Calendar is sign of that 12 tens which triumph in 21th century, 21th day, and the inverse 12th month and year. Here I'll consider also what happened for consequence: the bombs on the Historical Paradise and the Tsunami, of the day after Christmas (n. 1+3=4th year) against the Nature's Paradise. These 3 events have a divine reason. A poor Christ of Philosopher, for having tried to do the willing of the Pope, had against him all the Fideist Church, which accepted he could day by fasten, since, like the "lost sheep" of the Gospel he had put all his hope to be loved, in the Good Shepherd hands... who did not took care of him. When a Church is so, it is made by unconscious killers... So ...
