				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Commonly known as Chiesa Del Gesù, the Church of the holy name of Jesus is the headquarters of the society of Jesus in Rome, but also of the father General of the Jesuits.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It was built in 1568 with the support of Cardinal Alessandro Farnese. The original name of the Church is the holy name of Jesus, that name appears to be a monogram in marble and bronze by Bartolomeo Ammannati, built on order of Cardinal Alessandro Farnese by Vignola in between 1568 and 1584.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The construction of this structure is an important innovation in the history of art in fact was built according to the decrees of the Council of Trent. The Church was built with a single nave structure to concentrate the attention of the faithful on the altar. After the death of Vignola, the shipyard was in the hands of Giacomo Della Porta until 1580. The redesigned the facade design and built the dome in the external environment into wedges on an octagonal drum later decorated by Gualli called Giovanni Battista Gaulli.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In the shell theme is Heaven is praising Jesus while in the pendentives are evangelists, prophets and doctors of the Church. The Interior of the Church is divided into three naves placed a Latin cross, one of these is constituted by a barrel vault and a dome. In the first chapel we can admire decorations by Agostino Ciampelli while in the second we find paintings of Gaspare Celio, finally the third was completely decorated by Federico Zuccari.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The most important of the many chapels there is the chapel of Sant&#8217;Ignazio, built between 1969 and the 1700 by Andrea Pozzo. A particularly valuable is the altar with columns coated with lapis Lazuli and silver and gilded carvings. Originally the statue of St. Ignatius was cast in silver by Legros and a second time for requisitions of the Treaty of Tolentino, it was later redone in silver at the hands of stucco Tadolini.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">At the chapel of the sacred heart is possible to admire the presbytery where is memory of Saint Robert Bellarmine, the tomb was destroyed in 1854. In the left part of the presbytery there is the Madonna della Strada, considered miraculous.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Not more than twenty percents of Americans attend church regularly &#8211;at least that’s what was reported by half of the pollsters. Gallup polls, as well as other statisticians acquired about the same percentage — around forty percents of the total population of normal weekend church attendees within the latest 70 years. Maybe that’s why a different kind of research result a fairly dissimilar figure of how many Americans go to a local church, such as <a href="http://www.newlifepentecostal.ca/" target="_blank">church Kingston</a>, every Sunday. Initially started to find out how churches in America were actually doing, director from church planting division of the Evangelical Covenant Church, Olson, started gathering data before the beginning of &#8220;90s, slowly extending his study to cover overall attendance trends within the Church.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The trend shows that religion is losing its influence in the US. One of the main reasons is that most churches are not working like they are supposed to be. Almost all churches are just showing do’s and “don’t’s, in most times in outdated methods. They are also lack of logical explanation about Christianity. This causes many Christians leave Jesus for atheism or agnosticism, which provide more logic challenge.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">So, how do we deal with this situation? The answer is finding a right community in  that works properly. An example is the New Life Pentecostal Church in Kingston, Ontario. For further information, please contact New Life Pentecostal Church 1471 Sierra Ave Kingston, ON K7P 3H2 (613) 634-1378.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Tour of the &#8220;seven churches&#8221; Read cashing two results: the &#8216; trust &#8216; of the market with the spread that drops below 270 basis points and a substantial credit opening from the Eurozone. To be measured on the facts (i.e. reforms and debt reduction), means, and yet it is already a given that Merkel, Barroso and then share the Italian line on growth and jobs for Hollande, with whom he Read all the intention to build an axis against the Teutonic stiffness and restoring a breath of oxygen to their respective economies.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The stability of the Government, after the Bulgarian &#8216; trusty &#8216; room and the Senate, is the indicator that the German Chancellor and President of the European Commission appreciate more immediately. As well as the markets: spread (270) and performance of Italian Government bonds down to low compared to the last two years. It&#8217;s the sign of a positive orientation of investors towards the Italian diet.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The plan on how to combine rigor and growth will be presented in Brussels in a week; in the meantime Read Europe confirms that Italy respects the commitments with the EU on the node, that node that Barroso once again highlighted: the high public debt, with the risk of opening of the deficit. The Prime Minister makes it clear immediately that our country will do its part without seeking extensions, as did other States, though, returning to Rome, the waits for a double work: economic platform processing and mediation between political forces on measures to be put in the field. Overall, the abatement of unemployment – especially the young – on which Read can play in tandem with Hollande.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Debt, work, and revitalization of GDP, are the dossier on which Italy and France have in fact established a common front of action, being a common problem and whereas recently the relationship between Paris and Berlin have cooled a bit. It has not escaped the more than just on this front, the Italian premier&#8217;s attempt to establish an axis with Paris but also with Madrid to claim greater flexibility on the part of the Eurozone. The same flexibility that the President of the European Council Van Rompuy today definitively as possible but with the accounts in order. Then there is the question of Banking Union relaunched by reading as long overdue, not on the table of the European Council, in June.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If Barroso agrees to Read the &#8220;ability to build bridges&#8221; and a &#8220;high sense of responsibility,&#8221; now we need to pass from words to deeds. And the numbers that go hand in hand with the resources to relocate because – as pointed out by many economic observers – the program presented by read in Parliament is certainly ambitious, but brings with it an increase in public spending which compete. No easy task for Rome: the smoke signals that could unleash battle (policy) on the Imu did not promise anything good.</p>
