2012 Is The End Of The World?

SCIENTIFIC EXPERTS from around the world are predicting that 3 yearsfrom now, all life on Earth could well come to an end. Some are saying it'll be humans that would set it off. Others believethat a natural phenomenon will be the cause. And the religious folksare saying it'll be God himself who would press the stop button. The following are some likely arguments as to why the world would end bythe year 2012.

Reason one: Mayan calendar
The first to predict 2012 as the end of the world were the Mayans, abloodthirsty race that were good at two things -- building highly accurate astrological equipment outof stone and sacrificing virgins. Thousands of years ago they managed to calculate the length of thelunar moon as 329.53020 days, only 34 seconds out. The Mayan calendar predicts that the earth will end on December 21, 2012.Given that they were pretty close to the mark with the lunar cycle, it's likely they've got the endof the world right as well.

Reason two: Sunstorms
Solar experts from around the world monitoring the sun have made astartling discovery. Our sun is in a bit of strife. The energy output of the sun is, like most things in nature, cyclic andit's supposed to be in the middle of a period of relative stability. However, recent solar storms have been bombardingthe earth with lot of radiation energy. It's been knocking out power grids and destroying satellites. This activity ispredicted to get worse and calculations suggest it'll reach its deadly peaksometime in 2012.

Reason three: The atomsmasher
Scientists in Europe have been building the world's largest particleaccelerator. Basically, its a 27 km tunnel designed to smash atoms together to find out what makes the universe tick.However, the mega-gadget has caused serious concern, with some scientists suggesting that it's properly even a bad idea to turnit on in the first place. They're predicting all manner of deadly results, including mini black holes. So when thismachine is fired up for its first serious experiment in 2012, the world could be crushed into a super-denseblob the size of a basketball.

Reason four: The Bible says it
If having scientists warning us about the end of the world isn't badenough, religious folks are getting in on the act as well. Interpretations of the Christian Bible reveal that the date forArmageddon, the final battle between good an evil, has been set for 2012. The I Ching, also known as the Chinese Book ofChanges, says the same thing, as do various sections of the Hinduteachings.

Reason five: Supervolcano
Yellowstone National Park in United States is famous for its thermalsprings and old faithful geyser. The reason for this is simple -- it'ssitting on top of the world's biggest volcano and geological experts are beginning to get nervous sweats. The Yellowstone volcano has a pattern of erupting every 650,000 yearsor so, and we're many years overdue for an explosion that will fill theatmosphere with ash, blocking the sun and plunging the earth into afrozen winter that could last up to 15,000 years. The pressure under the Yellowstone is building steadily,and geologists have set 2012 as a likely date for the big bang. all going to die, very soon. They are also saying that their predictioncomes with a certainty of 99 per cent; and 2012 just happens to bethe best guess as to when it occurs.

Reason seven: Earth'smagnetic field
We all know the Earth is surrounded by a magnetic field that shieldsus from most of the sun's radiation. What you might not know is that the magnetic poles we call North and South have anasty habit of swapping places every 750,000 years or so -- and right now we're about 30,000 years overdue. Scientists havenoted that the poles are drifting apart roughly 20-30 kms each year, much faster than ever before, which points to apole-shift being right around the corner. While the pole shift is under way, the magnetic field is disrupted and willeventually disappear, sometimes for up to 100 years. The result is enough UV outdoors to crisp your skin inseconds, killing everything it touches.

Fruit Juice :D

Today is a beautiful day, 2 days ago my mom and i decided to make fruit juice. We usually drink fruit juice 2 to 3 times per week. The pic is the result after being blended together. Guess what inside the juice... This time is slightly different... The fruits are red apple, green apple, carrot, avocado, orange and tomato.

Without expectation, the fruit juice turned out to be so good after adding avocado in it. I can say it is way better than the juice outside. Like normal orange juice, cost about Rm5.50 regular per glass. I don't think it's pure orange juice as i heard people saying that they add water in it lol... I should open a fruit juice store too in the future lol...

Fruits or vegetables without the application of heat or solvents. For example, orange juice is the liquid extract of the fruit of the orange tree. Juice may be prepared in the home from fresh fruits and vegetables using variety of hand or electric juicers. Many commercial juices are filtered to remove fiber or pulp, but high pulp fresh orange juice is a popular beverage. Juice may be marketed in concentrate form, sometimes frozen, requiring the user to add water to reconstitute the liquid back to its "original state". However, concentrates generally have a noticeably different taste than their comparable "fresh-squeezed" versions. Other juices are reconstituted before packaging for retail sale. Common methods for preservation and processing of fruit juices include canning, pasteurization, freezing, evaporation and spray drying.

Popular juices include, but are not limited to, apple, orange, grapefruit, pineapple, tomato, passion fruit, mango, carrot, grape, cherry, cranberry, guava, and pomegranate. It has become increasingly popular to combine a variety of fruits into single juice drinks. Popular blends include cran-apple (cranberry and apple) and apple and blackcurrant.

Wonder if you answer...

People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that particular person. When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to help you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support...Or maybe help you physically, emotionally or spiritually... They may seems like a godsend and of course they are lol~ They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without doing anything wrong on your part or inconvenient time, this person will say or maybe do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die... Sometimes they walk away... Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done.

Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has come to share, grow or learn. They bring you peace or make you laugh. Of course, they may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it, it is real. But only for a season..sigh~

LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons, things you must build in order to have a solid emotional foundation. We have to accept the lesson but not to reject it, love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas or your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant. When you are in love the person can do no wrong in your eyes and when you are friends with someone you can almost predict what they will say..

Thank you for being a part of my life, whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime.

Friendship

Hello Friend...

Once i sat and thought of what is a FRIEND to ME??? And i came to a conclusion which i would like to share it with my near and dear friend...That's you~

It is BY CHANCE we met, BY CHOICE we became friends..

Friendship is a strange thing. We find ourselves telling each other the deepest details of our lives. Things we don't even share with our families who raised us. But what is a Friend? Is it A confidant? A lover? A fellow email junkie? A shoulder to cry on? An ear to listen? Or a heart to feel?

A friend is all these things...and more. No matter where we met, i call you Friend. A word so small, yet so large in feeling, a word filled with emotion. It is true great things come in small packages. Once the package of FRIENDSHIP has been opened, it can never be closed. It is a constant book always written, waiting to be read and enjoyed. We may have our disagreements. We may argue. We may concern one another. Friendship is a unique bond that lasts through it all. A part of me is put into my friends. Some it is my humor, some it is my listening ear, some it is real life experiences, some it is my romanticism. But with all, it is friendship. Friendships forged are a construct stronger than steel built as a foundation. Necessary for life and necessary for love. Friends, you and me, you brought another friend, and then there were 3. We started our group. Our circle of friends, and like that circle, there is no beginning no end.

We've Been Friends for such a long and lovely time. There is no friend like the old friend who has shared our morning days, no greeting like his welcome, no homage like his praise; Fame is the scentless sunflower, with a gaudy crown of gold; But friendship is the breathing rose, with sweets in every fold.

Thanks for being a very good friend to me...

P/S: Friendship is like wine, it gets better as it grows older.
