*In a recent article published on our sister site, CiuSF, they mention Chileans´ influence on California, especially during the Gold Rush. With such a small population, around 16 million, I always find it interesting how many Chileans there are around this world, outside of their homeland. Add a comment

27 February, 2010, 3:34 a.m. local time. Chile´s south central region is hit with an earthquake of significant magnitude. More than 500 victims. Islands like Juan Fernández and places like Dichato are devastated by a tsunami slamming the coasts, caused by the earthquake.

27 February, 2011. Juan Pablo Ternicier´s movie 03:34 is set to debut in Concepción; but, out of respect for those still affected, it was postponed it until 7 April.
