Nothing's hidden inside, but it's an ambigram.  Print it out and turn it 90 degrees and see what happens; then 90 more, then 90 more.  You will see something cool.

My theory is that the Ark of the Covenant are hidden there. If you have ever watched National Geographics dialog on the ten commandments and the box that was made for it; you would see that there has to be something else in the Bermuda Triangle.\n\n"And the tables were the work of God." "And he gave unto Moses ... two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God." "And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, graven upon the tables." Exodus 31:18; 32:16.\n\nWe know it had a home in Bethel (Judg 20:18, 27), Shiloh (1 Sam 1:3, 25; 3:3, 4:3), Kiriath-jearim (1 Sam 7:1-2), and Jerusalem (2 Sam 6:12-17). The Bible also says that the ark was carried from (and returned to) Jerusalem, when David was fleeing from his son to Transjordan (2 Sam 15:24-25, 29).\n\nWhen God's temple in heaven is opened, what a triumphant time that will be for all who have been faithful and true! In the temple will be seen the ark of the testament. . . .These tables of stone will be brought forth from their hiding place, and on them will be seen the Ten Commandments engraved by the finger of God. These tables of stone now lying in the ark of the testament will be a convincing testimony to the truth and binding claims of God's law. 7 BC 972 (emphasis supplied)\n\nJust my theory!

I mean this, too....where are the Arc of the Covenant and the Holy Grail?  Some say they are hidden in secretive places by the Jews, some say they're hidden beneath the Vatican.  Some say Atlantis sank into the sea near present day Greece and some say it sank off the coast of northern Africa.  Some say...some say...until these things are found or proved true they will remain just that....some say!

isn't it the "Hope" diamond

During mining, several tons of dirt (which has high content of diamond along with dirt) is "washed" and "ground" to break it into smaller more managable peices. This cleaned dirt still rich in diamonds is then rolled over on grease belts. Diamond has very high affinity for grease and sticks on to these belts. The remainder of the dirt is strained under supervision of laser beams which will definitely detect any stray diamonds still left with the dirt.\n\nThis is the modern way of finding diamonds in a diamond rich source. Traditionally, a diamond seeker would look out for diamond nuggets. They would pick up stones and pebbles by estimating the following:\n1. Weight\n2. Shape\n3. Color\n4. Feel\n\nDiamond is an extremely interesting element.

"The Illuminati" are an alleged group of influential bankers, politicians, and members of "high society" from around the world who supposedly have been conspiring for a very long time to take over the world.  Some conspiracy theorists have connected the World Monetary Fund (WMF, aka World Bank), Rothschilds, Chase, Rockefellers, the British Royal Family, Kennedys, Bushs, Masons, Yale's Skull and Bones, and Sonoma California's Bohemian Grove secret societies to "The Illuminati."  Some claim The Illuminati are behind the "New World Order" concept where those who already control most of the world's finances and politics are simply trying to solidify the status quo.  Since time immemorial, groups of influential people always have joined together to further their interests just like everyone else in the world.  If the members of the group happen to be extremely wealthy or politically influential, it oftentimes is labeled a conspiracy.  Relatively speaking, you could call a conspiracy any group of two or more people who quietly join together for a common cause.  With that in mind, there are conspiracies forming all the time everywhere.  What must be kept in mind is that those who think they are in power and control always will be worried about losing that power because there always will be others on the outside with power of their own who want to be on top.  The concept of being on top and in control entails a never-ending fight with never-ending headaches and therefore is a sad illusion that some never escape or realize until their physical deaths at which time the truth dawns on them that they wasted their Earthly time and energy on something impossible to achieve and maintain when more eternal truths and creations could have been undertaken instead.  If a group called The Illuminati that actually wishes to take over the world exists, its members should be pitied rather than feared because they lack wisdom and are themselves controlled by illusion rather than truth.  For more information and theory on "The Illuminati," do a simple web search.

There are so many people working at so many different places that have access to the data sent back by the rovers that I don't see any way that NASA or the FED could keep a lid on some 'secret' discovery....plus what motive could they possibly have for keeping something like that secret.... trust me if some geek at the JPL stumbles across a photo of a Martian life form it will probably be posted on the Internet before you could say 'classified'.

HPHT treatment works only on "Ia" type diamonds, which are the most common ones, so determining if the diamond is Ia is the first step.\n\nThen, read this:\n\nFrom Gems & Gemology: HPHT - Altered vs. Natural Inclusions in Fancy-Color Diamonds\n\nCharacterizing gemological features has always been critical in determining the origin of color in a diamond, and it is even more important with the increased use of high pressure/high temperature (HPHT) technology to change diamond color. This treatment may alter internal characteristics of the diamond, but interpretation of these clues can be very challenging, as evidenced by two diamonds recently submitted to the East Coast \nlaboratory for origin-of-color reports.\n\nThe 3.38 ct Fancy Intense blue marquise and 1.20 ct Fancy Vivid orange-yellow pear shape exhibited very similar inclusions that looked suspiciously like those often found in HPHT-annealed stones. Both diamonds displayed large, flat, apparently graphitized inclusions surrounded by a colorless halo (see figure).\n\nAfter further examination, however, we noted subtle but significant differences in these internal features. The halo in the blue diamond was quite flat with little or no relief, and was very shiny in reflected light. The halo in the yellow diamond appeared to undulate around the dark center, and it revealed a less reflective, sugary appearance with reflected light.\n\nBlack inclusions are relatively common in natural-color type IIb blue diamonds. They are less common—but not unknown—in natural-color yellow diamonds. Tension haloes can form naturally around inclusions in any diamond. The conditions of HPHT treatment can create tension haloes around existing inclusions while stimulating graphite formation along their crystal faces. The result may be a large, flat inclusion with a dark center, which is surrounded by a transparent/translucent halo.\n\nHowever, there are subtle differences in tension haloes produced naturally and those resulting from HPHT processing. Because HPHT treatment subjects a diamond to intense heat and pressure for a relatively short period of time, it can cause severe damage to existing features. From our experience, the sugary texture and undulating nature of the tension halo in the orange-yellow pear shape suggested that this diamond was subjected to a rapid change in heat and pressure, whereas the smooth, shiny appearance of the halo in the blue diamond indicated that it was caused by a slower, natural process. Spectroscopic analysis confirmed the observations we had made with magnification: The orange-yellow diamond had been HPHT annealed, and the blue diamond was natural color.\n\nFor more updates from the GIA Gem Trade Laboratory, see the Gem Trade Lab Notes section of Gems & Gemology.

The Illuminati was a secret society founded by Adam Weishaupt in Bavaria, Germany in 1776. It apparently was formed to promote anarchist ideas, i.e., the elimination of religion and government. They were pretty effectively repressed by 1785, but that just made it possible for various people to blame it for every major historical incident that followed.

Interesting...but is there truly any way to know for sure?  It's like the Shroud of Turin, there's so much controversy that the true science in it is lost.  I think that it's the general consensus that will influence the possibilities of orgin and usage (scary, huh).

A Corundum Ruby cause it's #9 om the hardness scale of minerals right under diamonds #10.

I have this video.  It is thought provoking.  Check out the one he (Alex Jones) put out about the Bohemian Grove.  That, too, is a secret sect that many of our presidents have belonged to as well as leaders from all over the world.  As for the Illuminati being a group of "intellectuals," that was said in The DaVinci Code and should not be taken as fact.  It was a wonderful web that Dan Brown weaved.  (I must say, though, I couldn't put that book down, very entertaining.)

Diamonds are supposed to be pure 100% carbon, but due to some impurities they are classified by their shades. \nThe shades are named as: Blue white, First Cape, Second Cape, First bye, Second bye, Off color, Light yellow , Yellow \n\n\nAlso according to their shapes when they are taken from the mine, they are classified in: \n1. Close goods \n2. Spotted stones \n3. Rejection cleavage \n4. Fine cleavage \n5. Light brown cleavage \n6. Ordinary and rejection cleavage \n7. Flats \n8. Naats \n9. Rubbish \n10. Boart\n\nFinallly each colour is sub divided according to the sizes:\nFinest extra blue white, Fine Capes \nExtra blue white, Capes \nFinest blue white, Byewaters \nBlue white, Yellows \nFinest white, Finest light brown \nWhite, Light brown \nSilver Capes, Brown and dark brown \n\nAll these colors are divided into shipments of Closed Goods, Spotteds, Irregulars, Blocks, Naats, and Flats.

Synthetic boules have been available since the 1890's (the reason sapphire/ruby synthesis was originally attempted).  There books by John Sinkankas which address this topic, the primary answers being color, orientation, appearance under magnification.  Any decent rock show will have people who can id it by sight, check this link for the nearest one.\n\nhttp://www.rockhounds.com/rockshop/table.shtml\n\nAny competent jeweler, without a financial incentive, should be able to tell you this.  I would be sure they are GIA certified in colored stones, or simply contact the GIA itself:\n\nhttp://www.gia.edu/\n\nPrice and/or setting is no method of determining if a stone is natural or not, in that even major retailers are selling fakes at full price these days.
