In the year 2012, there will be a presidential election in Finland on January 15; the opening ceremony of the Summer Olympic Games will begin in London at 7-30 p.m. UTC on July 27; there will be 7 billion people living on Earth on October 19, according to the U.S. Census Bureau; and, on December 21, the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar, referred to more familiarly as the Mayan calendar, will complete its thirteenth cycle and, based on all of these events- according to the Mayan belief system- the world will come to an end. If you don't believe the Mayans, you can check in with The Bible Code, which predicts a meteor, asteroid, or comet will collide with the Earth; The Nostradamus Code, which opts for a possible nuclear war or some other natural or man-made destruction; or The Orion Prophecy, which claims there will be a reversal of the Earth's magnetic field. Pick your poison - no matter what happens, we're all toast.
