Roland Emmerich has destroyed the world more than anybody else in Hollywood. In his mega-hit “Independence Day,” aliens laid waste to pretty much every metropolitan center on the planet, and in his eco-thriller “The Day After Tomorrow,” much of the northern hemisphere finds itself buried under ice. In his third crack at presenting the apocalypse, this fall’s “2012,” Emmerich taps into the angst of thousands of astrologers, researchers, scientists, doomsday enthusiasts, and conspiracy theorists who fear that a massive cataclysm will strike the earth on December 21 of that year. Yet unlike previous dates tied to the Earth’s expiration, this one has its roots in various sources throughout history including interpretations of the Mayan calendar, astrology, and the ancient Chinese fortune-telling text the “I-Ching.” Maybe this time Emmerich may have cracked the code unintentionally!

If you are in the water, make your way to a raft. If no rafts are available, try to find a large piece of floating debris to cling to. Relax; a person who knows how to relax in ocean water is in very little danger of drowning. The body’s natural buoyancy will keep at least the top of the head above water, but some movement is needed to keep the face above water.
Floating on your back takes the least energy. Lie on your back in the water, spread your arms and legs, and arch your back. By controlling your breathing in and out, your face will always be out of the water and you may even sleep in this position for short periods. Your head will be partially submerged, but your face will be above water. If you cannot float on your back or if the sea is too rough, float facedown in the water as shown on the picture.

Reports circulating in the Kremlin today (30 June 2009) are saying that Russian Air Force Commanders have issued warnings to all of their aircraft to exercise “extreme caution” during flights “in and around” an area defined as Latitude 17 North [North Atlantic Ocean] Latitude 3 South [South Atlantic Ocean] to Latitude 8 North [Indian Ocean] Latitude 19 South [Indian Ocean] between the Longitudes of 46 West, 33 West, 46 East and 33 East, and which covers the greater part of the African Tectonic Plate.

The reason for this unprecedented warning, these reports state, are the rapid formations of “geomagnetic storms” emanating from the boundaries of the African Tectonic Plate that due to their intensity have caused the loss of two major passenger aircraft during the past month leaving nearly 300 men, women and children dead.

The ongoing debate over the true Mayan calendar “endtime” date, be it December 21, 2012 or otherwise, is irrelevant to the actual “endtime” implications. Calendar wars have existed since the days of the early Egyptians and continue to exist today between the Maya themselves, religious scholars and western mathematicians. The Egyptian God Thoth was banished from Egypt because he was insistent on using a calendar aligned with the star system Sirius while the other “Gods” wanted to use calendars that aligned with their own respective star systems and power bases. According to Sitchin, Thoth relocated to Central and South America and helped build the Mayan civilization as Quetzalcoatl. The Haab calendar is actually the solar Sirian calendar that Thoth introduced to the Mayas. Whichever calendar was established as the primary calendar during the various eras and cultures provided that particular “God” or institution the ultimate power to control the masses.

The key element of interest in regard to the end-date interpretation of the Mayan longcount calendar is that it converges with all the other Mayan calendars on December 21, 2012 and heralds a solstice/galactic center alignment that last took place some 13,000 odd years ago.
