Friends of ours took a day trip to Montezuma's Well here in AZ. As they walked the beautiful trail they came upon the 70 old Park Ranger and started to discuss what did happen to these people, all goods left behind yet all people were gone? My friend jokingly..kind of said "I think a giant UFO picked them up." Well that unfolded into many topics to explore.
Here's some of the topics that came up
and also the latest from Owen Waters.

The End of Life As We Know It by Owen Waters

 The senior scientist who runs NASA’s ‘Ask an Astrobiologist’ web site is inundated with emails from people asking if something dire is about to befall the planet in the year 2012. He says that the concerns arise from people reading some of the 200+ different books that focus on predictions about 2012.
These predictions come from records left by the ancient Mayan culture, which possessed advanced astronomical information. They pointed out that, at the winter solstice on December 21st, 2012, many cosmic cycles will come to a close and begin anew. The year 2012 is an unusual one in the cosmic history of Earth because the length of these cycles varies from 5,200 years to several million years in length.
The Internet today is rife with doomsday prophets who, like all doomsday prophets, seem to secretly hope that bad things will happen to humanity. This time the excuse for such excitement is 2012. Before that, it was Y2K. On January 1st, 2000, computer chips everywhere were supposed to fail. Y2K was boldly predicted to be the Achilles heel that would bring civilization to an abrupt end. And, what actually happened? Nothing, unless you happened to have a very old computer that needed an update.
Mitch Battros of Earth Changes Media newsletter says about 2012 disaster predictions, “There will be fraudsters, pranksters, and charlatans coming out of the woodwork, of which some are smart enough to cover themselves by calling it entertainment.” By ‘entertainment,’ he was referring to the upcoming epic disaster movie, ‘2012.’
2012’s Roland Emmerich likes to create larger-than-life tales about global doom. He has created spectacular scenes of destruction in movies like ‘Independence Day,’ where aliens attacked cities from huge spaceships. He had ‘Godzilla’ flatten New York City and, in ‘The Day After Tomorrow,’ he wrecked Hollywood with mega-tornadoes.
Is nothing sacred? Well, if you count the upcoming ‘2012’ disaster flick, no. When asked why he likes “killing the world,” Emmerich replied, "It makes for a good story." In ‘2012,’ he has Los Angeles slide into the ocean and the huge statue of Jesus above Rio de Janeiro gets shaken to pieces. He even has an impossibly high tidal wave somehow reach all the way up into the Himalayan mountains, just high enough to knock a monk off the top of one of the peaks.
Moving from the ridiculous to the sublime, I recently discovered a bright example of quite the opposite kind of 2012 fiction. Instead of engaging in mindless sensationalism, this new book about 2012 manages to be both intelligent and uplifting.

‘The Twelve’ by William Gladstone is an inspiring novel centered around the 2012 predictions. He weaves prophecy into a global adventure novel about one man’s relentless pursuit of the answers to a great spiritual mystery. Eventually, after continuous page-turning suspense, the protagonist meets all of the twelve people who are the key to his destiny and that of the world.
Throughout this fast-paced novel, the reader is reminded of the higher connections that all people share if they will only be open to their intuitive guidance. When the hero finally arrives at the crossroads of his ultimate destiny, the biggest surprise of the book unfolds and the chase is finally won.
I heartily recommend this book to anyone who would like to treat themselves to a novel of hope, inspiration, and the upliftment of humanity. It’s a great read and, as a classic in the making, I’ve had no hesitation in adding it to my Recommended Books list of Modern Spiritual Classics at:

While scientists generally concur that the earth's climate is entering a period of instability, most academics dispute the apocalyptic interpretation of the Long Count calendar end date and the precession-alignment thesis.  Those versed in the study of the classical Mayan civilization insist the date 12/21/2012 simply marks a resetting of the ancient clock to Baktun 13.0.0.0.0.(2)  Other skeptics argue that doomsday predictions associated with religious prophecies and astronomical events have a long track record of failure.

December 21, 2012

This date represents the correlation of the standard Gregorian calendar to the end of the Baktun cycle of the Mayan calendar. Also known as the "Great Cycle", by most modern calculations it began in 3114 B.C.(4) In recent years, a number of New Age commentators have claimed a global consciousness shift is in the works as the calendar transitions to a new 5,125-year cycle. Mexican artist José Argüelles is credited with introducing the 2012 phenomenon to a mass audience when he organized the Harmonic Convergence on August 16, 1987 and subsequently published a book, The Mayan Factor . Later on, counterculture icon Terence McKenna would refer to the 2012 end date in his controversial Timewave Zero doctrine.

McKenna protégé Daniel Pinchbeck eventually encapsulated various lines of thought circulating about a coming new age in his book 2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl (2006). (5) In 2007, The History Channel began airing a series of documentaries exploring the Mayan calendar and prophecies emanating from many other traditions.(6)
A few Mayan researchers have proposed alternative end dates to the Long Count calendar, particularly Carl Johan Calleman, who insists the correct date is October 28, 2011 .(6.5) A biologist and former investigator for the World Health Organization, Calleman is the author of The Mayan Calendar and the Transformation of Consciousness (2004), which argues that the nine steps of Mayan pyramids correspond to accelerating periods of evolution, beginning with the birth of the universe and culminating in the Long Count end date.
Polar
Shift by 2012?
New Evidence and Theory Suggests Einstein May Have Been Right
By Carl Peterson

Science

has long speculated that
the earth's center rotates at a different speed
from the crust. The big question really has been "What
holds the earth's crust in equilibrium with the
center?" Visionary writer and inventor Carl
Peterson may have discovered the answer. In looking
for the reasons "magnetic north" lies
far from the North Pole, Peterson has stumbled
upon a scientificAlbert Einstein, in
which the poles, aided by massive ice build up,
are eventually thrown by centrifugal force to
the equator. explanation that also fits
with past polar shifts; and offers probable causes,
timing, and local effects of the next shift.
His theory complements and completes a Charles
Hapgood theory endorsed by
If the center rotates at a different speed from
the crust, there is good reason to believe that
this is the cause for the static electricity
apparent on the earth's surface. If that is true,
then North Pole on the crust must have an opposite
magnetic charge from north in the earth's core.

Vanishing Bee Colonies, Doomsday Scenarios and
Sunspots
Albert Einstein once said : “If the bee disappeared
off the surface of the globe then man would only
have four years of life left. No more bees, no
more pollination, no more plants, no more animals,
no more man.”

This page is not about predictions. It is about known facts.
Some are scientific facts, accepted by the scientific establishment.
Other facts are simply the reported beliefs and predictions of famous
people and peoples- Edgar Cayce, Nostradamus, Ramtha, Albert
Einstein, and the Mayan Indians- to name a few. What they said may
not be true. But it is a fact that they said it. I don't believe the world is
coming to an end tomorrow. But I do believe that our history is laced with major
cataclysms of one sort or another, and that another one will come, sooner
or later. And if that is true, we may as well prepare for the worst, and hope
for the best. We may have hundreds, or thousands of years. Or we may have
days. So, here are the facts. Draw your own conclusions.
