Great article in the Miami New Times last week, profiling preppers and survivalists like these folk:
Jorge Villa – after a terrifying experience during Hurricane Andrew he devised his own bunkers, and sells them to folk – some of whom are worried about the end of the Mayan calendar – via his business U.S. Bunkers
Neal Wiseman – moderates a group called the South Florida Survivalist Network, and has a year’s worth of food stored for his family, should the need arise:
Chris Petrovich – prepper for 25 years. He has helped others “cache extra fuel and food, stashed in public-storage units and underground, at intervals on an 800-to-1,200-mile path out of Florida. Amid darkness and chaos, skirting burning sugarcane fields and accidents and roadblocks, they’ll drive from cache to cache toward a secret inland hiding spot, exhausting the last available remnants of the petroleum age.”
While Petrovich himself plans on staying, I agree with …
From DIY to Russian megabunkers
Preparing for when the SHTF
Crustal displacements and magnetic pole shift – both are scary
Don’t believe NASA – these are a genuine threat
More likely during eclipses and perhaps Comet Elenin is a factor?
Occasionally snakes have two heads, but this mutation is quite unique, and eerily appropriate with 2012 approaching. 2012 is the Chinese Year of the Dragon, and possibly the return of Quetzalcoatl (“feathered serpent” = dragon) for the Maya. Here we have a snake that has grown a leg. Source: The Telegraph
I’ve shown this pic before…
…but not the inside pics: Here’s two, the rest are at Digital Trends, along with the story.
What if the end date of the ancient Mayan Long Count calendar was not meant to be taken literally?
The first question you need to ask is this: Dec 21 is also the Winter Solstice (in the northern hemisphere) – the darkest day of the year, so it is a coincidence or deliberate?
The second question is, if the date is deliberate, then why?
If there is a scientific basis to the Long Count calendar, if it is ultimately reflecting a scientific prediction, then there are still more questions:
Is there anything about a Winter Solstice than can cause a catastrophe?
Could an ancient culture predict a catastrophe, thousands of years away, accurate to a single day?
Or is Dec 21, 2012 a symbolic date for a scientific prediction for approximately Dec 2012?
What we do know:
The ancient Germanic people celebrated the solstice with Yule logs
The very ancient Newgrange tomb in Ireland is aligned to the winter …
I check this web page all the time:
http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsww/Quakes/quakes_big.php
It lists every earthquake greater than 5.0 for the last week, and it is updated in real-time.
On most days there’s less than five quakes listed, and often just one or two. Today there are 39!
To be fair, when there’s a really big quake, a lot of aftershocks will make the list – so to account for them the list really looks like this:
8.6 OFF THE WEST COAST OF NORTHERN SUMATRA
8.2 OFF THE WEST COAST OF NORTHERN SUMATRA (+ 22 aftershocks)
6.0 NORTH INDIAN OCEAN (+ 9 aftershocks)
5.3 BANDA SEA
5.5 ANDREANOF ISLANDS, ALEUTIAN IS., ALASKA
5.1 SOUTHERN MID-ATLANTIC RIDGE
5.2 SOUTHERN MID-ATLANTIC RIDGE
5.4 SOUTH SANDWICH ISLANDS REGION
5.9 OFF THE COAST OF OREGON
6.5 MICHOACAN, MEXICO
I’ve definitely not seen such an array of large quakes in one day before. Hopefully it’s just a freak occurrence.
UPDATE: Very next day, GULF OF CALIFORNIA has had a 6.9 and a 6.2, while …
Our Sun operates on a cycle that takes roughly 11 years to complete. While the key indicator for when the cycle is at its peak is the number of sun spots, the root cause is the reversal of the Sun’s magnetic poles. And for some reason that scientists cannot explain, the Sun’s poles are currently out of step with each other:
“Right now, there’s an imbalance between the north and the south poles,” Jonathan Cirtain, NASA’s project scientist for a Japanese solar mission called Hinode, in a recent article on NASA’s website. “The north is already in transition, well ahead of the south pole, and we don’t understand why.”
Further, the asymmetrically reversing solar magnetic field could have an effect on Earth, resulting in increased solar flares and the accompanying bursts of radioactive particles called “coronal mass ejections,” or CMEs, that can hit Earth and cause brilliant Northern Lights displays and problematic geomagnetic solar storms, …

Cool Stuff.
That isnt the snakes leg, thats the leg of the creature the snake swallowed. Why Why Why are you idiots so hell bent on misinforming and bad drama. Grow up!!!
Hey hey
there is something going on here with this photo. I looked at it with Picasa 3 and windows picture it and it looked liked it was growing on top of the snake skin and not sticking through the the skin at all.
Someone with abode my want to really see it up close and tell the differences. But there is something really wrong with this snake.
This is horrible to see. This only means one thing, death. Im catholic and i just read genisis. In genisi , the devil goes to adam and eve in form of a snake(which had legs at that time) and made them eat frome the tree of knowledge. so god made adam and eve leave and punished the devil by making snakes have no legs and have to crawl on their stomachs. God then stated that the day that snakes grew legs, whas the day justice died…….
hear,hear…….there are some stupid people out there….! good looken out! ahahah
would you please share the specific bible verses so other readers can go to the bible & find what you are ‘quoting’?
