Happy New Year 2012 with Music from Abba

Happy New Year 2012 with Music from Abba

When Did Saying Happy Holidays Become a Bad Thing?

It's the most wonderful time of the year! The holiday season is upon us, and apparently, we can count on two things - a showdown in Congress and whining about the supposed war on Christmas. It's ironic, isn't it? Everywhere you look, there are Christmas decorations. Christmas music is being piped into every store and restaurant. The Christmas season has stretched longer and longer, with Christmas merchandise now appearing in stores even before Halloween. And yet, somehow, this isn't enough emphasis on Christmas for some. Consider the following examples:
Recently, my sister heard someone respond to someone wishing them "Happy Holidays" by saying "We say 'Merry Christmas', not that holiday crap."
My friend saw someone wearing a button saying, "It's OK to say Merry Christmas".
I saw a bumper sticker saying "Keep Christ in Christmas",
And of course, Fox News is having their annual whine-fest about something somewhere being referred to as "holiday" instead of "Christmas". In this case, a tree in Rhode Island.
Give me a break.
First of all, wishing someone "Happy Holidays" is at its essence an expression of good will. It is a positive thing to say, a kind gesture. Since when is it OK to respond to a kind expression with rudeness and rejection? Isn't Christmas also about opening our hearts? Peace and goodwill to all? Please practice what you preach.









Second of all, can we all just acknowledge and accept that NOT EVERYONE CELEBRATES CHRISTMAS! I know, this is shocking, but yes, there are Jewish people and Buddhist people and all sorts of other cultures and religions that do not celebrate it. Do you know for sure that the person you are speaking to celebrates Christmas? If not, then why would you wish them Merry Christmas? Saying "Happy Holidays" is a polite way of wishing someone well without making assumptions. The holidays can include Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, New Years Day, and yes, Christmas.
Adding to the irony of complaining about using the word "holiday" in place of "Christmas", did you know that the word "holiday" evolved from the words "holy day"? It just demonstrates the ignorance of these people that they are actually opposed to someone wishing them a happy holy day and believe that it contradicts and does not encompass Christmas.
As for the sentiment of saying "Keep the Christ in Christmas", I can understand the frustration of seeing what to some is a very special, religious holiday turn into a spectacle of commercialism on steroids. I can agree that the original meaning of the holiday has been lost amongst the shopping and decorations frenzy. But you really can't have it both ways. If Christmas goes back to being a purely religious holiday, and you remove all of the secular trappings (and the people who celebrate it in a secular way), then that would correspondingly reduce the number of people celebrating it and the attention paid to in the retail world. Christmas is big business. It's called Black Friday, because that's when many retailers go in to the black, i.e. become profitable for the year. Remove that financial motivation, sorry to say, and there will be less "Merry Christmas" everywhere, not more.
What makes Christmas special to me is not the presents and shopping but spending time with family. My husband and I enjoy passing along holiday traditions to our children and making our own. Part of that holiday tradition for us is also celebrating Hanukkah. See, I have one side of the family that is Catholic, and one side that is Jewish. That is why I am sensitive to the fact that not everyone celebrates Christmas. I always buy cards that say "Seasons Greetings" or "Happy Holidays" so that I can send them to everyone on my list. I see this as being considerate and thoughtful. Not for one second is it meant to minimize Christmas for those who celebrate it.
For those who are getting so worked up about it, I challenge you to search within yourself to understand why it is so important to you. Do you need such constant validation of your faith? Are you really that intolerant of those that are not like you? Let me assure you that Christmas is alive and well. Look around you. Notice all of the green and red, the mistletoe, the Santas at the mall. Enjoy the reindeer on people's lawns, the lights on houses, the poinsettias, the holly. Hear the Christmas music played in the malls, and watch

12 Things Need To Do Before 2012

I have some news for you.
2012 is here.
Well, just about.
Only 19 days left until the New Year.
For many, this is the last full week of work before holiday vacations.
Are you ready for 2012?
Is Your 2011 Finished?
You may be surprised that 2012 is so close.
New Year’s has a way of sneaking up on us.
“You are sitting comfortably in September, and before you know it, it’s the middle of December.”
However, there is still time to finish up 2011. But, you need to act fast.
What do you need to do?
At work? At home?
It’s time to make a list of the things that you need to complete before the end of the year.
Get Ready for 2012
It’s not too early to start preparing for 2012.
It will be here before you can finish preparing for that holiday party.
Here are 12 Things You Need To Do Before 2012 Arrives:
1.Finish Up 2011 – Many of us have things we planned to do in 2011. It is not too late to accomplish them. What is still on your 2011 goals list? For many employees, there is a mad scramble to finish things that are on their 2011 Reviews.
2.Limit Your Obligations – The holiday season can be stressful because there is simply too much going on. Holiday parties, work deadlines, vacation, travel, gift-giving. Your calendar and todo list can be overwhelming. Limit yourself and your obligations. Say “no” where appropriate and keep your todo list in check.
3.Take Note of Where You Are – The end of the year is the time to check the score. Review your accomplishments. Re-read your journal. If you don’t know where you stand currently, you can’t possibly make goals for the New Year.
4.Clean Up and Get Organized – Many people wait until the Spring to do their cleaning. But, the end of the year is a great time to get organized and clean up. A clean workplace and home can make your New Year start more productive.
5.Name Your Goals for 2012 – The time to lay out your 2012 goals is now, not after the New Year arrives. Write your goals down. Be as specific as possible as to what you want to accomplish. For example, “Get in shape” is too vague. “Lose 15 pounds” is more precise and gives you a way to measure your success.
6.Plan – Get a long-term calendar and start plotting out your 2012. Most people don’t plan out beyond the next few days or weeks. It’s important to put long-term events and milestones on your calendar. I already have my calendar booked out through next October. If you are looking for a great 2012 planning calendar, here is a great one by @JessePhillips, Seize the Year 2012.
7.Prepare – Scheduling is great. However, getting ready is the action step. What do you need to do in order to be ready to start 2012? Do you need to sign-up for something? Read some references? Learn a new skill? Do your homework so that you can start 2012 on the right footing.
8.Tell Others – Many people keep their plans and goals hidden and secret. I recommend the opposite. Tell everyone what you are going to do. Get support from friends and family. If they do not know your goals, they cannot offer support and motivation.
9.Make a Map – List and calendars are good ways to get your thoughts down. However, if you want to get a 10,000 foot view of your goals, I recommend making a mindmap. It is the quickest, easiest way to capture all your thoughts in one place. Make your 2012 map to help you find your way in the new year.
10.Set Deadlines – As the saying goes, “Goals without deadlines are just dreams.” If you want to actually reach your goals, you need to set aggressive deadlines to get there. Otherwise, your dreams will remain just that… dreams.
11.Be Realistic – Always set your sights higher than you believe you can reach. You need to stretch your potential. However, if your goals or timeframes are not based in reality, you will fail. Take special caution here, it is important not to hold yourself back. You set your own limits. Whether or not you can do something is often directly related to whether or not you think you can.
12.Start Now – There is no reason to wait until January 1st to start your 2012 goals. Start today. I am not a big believer in waiting until New Year’s. Any day of the year is a good day to start a resolution. In fact, today is always the best day to start.
What Is In Your 2012?
2011 is almost done.
It’s time to finish those 2011 todo lists.
It’s also time to get ready for 2012.
Take action today and start mapping out your goals.
What do you need to finish before the end of the year? What are your goals for the New

New Resolutions 2012

Wishing you a very Happy New Year 2012. You must be thinking that it’s a new year wishing article then what would be new in this post. So, let me tell you that I posted this article to share my journey of resolutions in 2011. I will be very happy if it helps any of my friends in achieving their New Year resolutions.
Every year I make resolutions such as getting up early in morning, reading books, studying well, healthy diet, regular exercise, getting good job, achieving something special and so on. Like everyone else, I always want to do everything but as time pass on, my resolutions also fly on. And I never succeed in completing all resolutions at the end of the year.
In 2011, I would say I completed almost every resolution what I made at the starting of the year. And I feel proud of myself that I achieved that much in my life for the first time. I did what I really like to do such as:
Reading books.
Learn to live Life, not just rushing into it.
Hanging out with friends.
Learn to be positive in any of the situation.
Watching animated movies.
Visiting favorite places.
Getting good job in a good company at a good location.
Being the master of my life, not a slave.
“Work all the time you work and enjoy all the time you enjoy”
I really did not try hard to accomplish all these things. I just did what everyone can do easily. I read some self help books such as One Minute Manager, The Monk who sold his Ferrari, Who moved my Cheese, Change your Thinking change your Life, Eat that Frog. I just followed some simple steps:
Make a Dream Diary.
Think on paper: I write on paper all the things I really want to do.
Make a Plan: I made a master plan for every task for one-year. Then I made sub-plans for one-month, one-week and one-day.
Cut into pieces: I cut every big task into small enough sub-tasks.
Set priorities: I set priorities for everything and focus on High priority tasks first.
Set timelines: I set a timeline for everything to be finished.New Resolutions 2012

December 21 2012 Predictions The End of The World 2012

December 21 2012 Predictions The End of The World 2012
Until a couple of years ago there were not that many people who were acquainted with the end of the world 2012 prophecy that was put forward by many scholars who studied the end of the Mayan long calendar. This Long Count calendar has lasted for five thousand one hundred and twenty five years, and although the end of the calendar leads to many different interpretations, one of the most popular is the belief that at the end of this cycle the world (or humanity’s existence) will come to an abrupt end on December 21 2012. Is the world going to end in 2012?
December 21 2012 Predictions The End of The World 2012
In order to fully understand the 2012 end of the world predications, then you should first understand the calendar that is at the center of this controversy. The current cycle, or baktun, of this calendar began on August 13th, 3114 B.C. This marked the end of the last period and the beginning of the current one. The baktun that we are currently living in is the thirteenth, and the end of this cycle is one that has been considered to have a large level of importance to the Mayan people, which is why so many people have come to the conclusion that this cycle’s end is one that will mean the end of the world as we know it.
While there is no definite proclamation of how the end of the world 2012 predictions will happen, those who have studied this calendar claim that the long calendar was created in order to correspond with a long term astronomical prediction by the Mayan people. This has led some to believe that this end of the world scenario will play out in a manner that has something to do with something from beyond this world. While this correlation to something that is going on in outer space is not a definite thing, for some it comes from a basic understanding of Mayan culture and their unique understanding of astronomical phenomena and planetary alignments.
The Truth About Planet X – Nibiru
Something else that has been considered is the belief that the 2012 end of the world will come to Earth not through some planetary force outside of our galaxy, but through the power of our own sun. Some who have studied the timing of the 2012 prophesy and combined this knowledge with an understanding of the solar system believe that the end will come via a large solar flare. This flare will come about because of the infiltration of the orbits of the planets in our solar system by an outside orbiting planet that the Sumerians and the Babylonians referred to as Nibiru, and is sometimes referred to by modern scientists as Planet X. Those who subscribe to this theory believe that Nibiru only orbits through our system once every three thousand six hundred years.
In addition to this, these cultures believed that there were a race of people who lived on Nibiru that were known as the Anunnaki. According to their creation mythology this superior race of beings came to Earth and genetically engineered human beings. They did this because they needed to get gold ore from our planet in order to help save their own environment. The humans that they created helped them by mining the gold from Africa. The basis for this mythology was found in ancient writings that were recently uncovered in relation to the ancient Sumerians, and they documented this creation in detail in their writings. If they are correct, then the end of the world 2012 that is depicted in the Mayan calendar will also coincide with the return of the Anunnaki. In essence, it would be the return of our creators, and this is also something that is closely linked in with the belief that the Mayan calendar signals the forthcoming Apocalypse.
According to this 2012 end of world philosophy, when this planetary body re-enters our system it will cause massive disruptions in the orbits of Jupiter, Uranus, Venus, and Earth. When Nibiru crosses our orbit they believe that it will cause the gases in Jupiter to ignite because it will get too close to the sun and the precarious balance that keeps its gas structure in check will be lost, therefore causing Jupiter to turn into a secondary sun. In combination with this, the solar flares that are released from the sun on a naturally reoccurring cycle are set to peak during the year 2012. It is believed that this occurrence in combination with the cycle of Nibiru will cause a massive amount of damage to the planet on a level that has never been seen before.
Planetary Alignment on December 21 2012
December 21 2012 Predictions The End of The World 2012
However, there are others who contend that the end of the world 2012 prophesy actually refers to a very rare planetary alignment that will occur during the winter solstice on december 21 2012. At this time the entire Milky Way (including the earth and the sun) will align at a point that is known as the galactic equator. This alignment is so rare that it only happens every twenty five thousand years. It is thought that this rare planetary alignment could signal a shift in the magnetic poles. This polar shift has happened before in the distant past, and if it were to happen now it would cause massive destruction across the globe. Some claim that the reason the Mayan long calendar ends on this exact date is that something is going to happen in combination with this alignment, the introduction of Nibiru, and the solar flares. It can’t be a coincidence that all of these things are scheduled to happen at the same time that the Mayan calendar is set to come to its conclusion, can it?
If nothing else the 2012 end of the world prophesy that is brought about by the Mayan calendar does bring with it several questions about this culture’s knowledge of celestial events and happenings that they could not have possibly understood, let alone have mapped out to the extent that they did. Their understanding of the solar system, the planetary alignments, and other important events is something that cannot be easily explained or understood by most people who have studied this rare Mayan philosophy.
The end of the world 2012 scenario is one that frightens many people, but this does not have to be the case. If you are interested in finding out more about the theories and philosophies that the 2012 doomsday prophesy is founded on, then you visit the link below to find out more about the end of the world and what you can do to help your family survive any number of disasters. On top of this you can get a complete three hundred and sixty degree view of the processes of the 2012 countdown, including a special bulletin that will keep you up to date on everything that is related to this upcoming date and the disastrous implications it brings with it. So, if you are someone who is looking to make sure that they stay ahead of the danger and keep on top of new developments on the end of the world 2012, then this site is the perfect thing to keep you informed and prepared to december 21 2012.

Do You Believe Dec 21, 2012 Is The End Of The World

You must have probably heard about the “December 21, 2012 – Doomsday” the day when the world is prophesized to come to an end. In fact, you will find it amusing that this December 21, 2012 – End Of The World prophecy has been backed up by so many religions, calendars, and prophecies. So, is this another theory of Apocalypse that will come and go like the ones we have been seeing or is it the one that we should pay attention to? After digging for several hours through the Internet in this matter, I came up with the following worthy information regarding “The End Of The World.”
Mayan Calendar: The ancient Mayan calendar states that the world will end in December 21, 2012. The Mayan civilization flourished in Central America from the 6 A.D. to 9 A.D. They were obsessed with time-keeping, and in fact, their calender were so incredibly precise that its interlocking time scales of lunar, solar, and planetary cycles could accurately predict solar/lunar eclipses thousands of years into the future. This accurate calendar however mysteriously ends on December 21, 2012!

It states that on December 21, 2012, the sun rises on the dark rift of the center of the milky way which is referred to as a black hole. In the last five years, the western astronomers have in fact discovered that there is in fact an enormous black hole at the center of our milky way galaxy.

The contemporary astronomers concur with the Mayans. On 21st of December, 2012, the Earth will be in exact alignment with the Sun and the center of our milky way galaxy, a galactic event which takes place only once every 25,800 years! No one knows what effect this extraordinary alignment will have on our planet, but the Mayans believe it would be terrible!
The Polar Shift Theory: Geophysicists have a theory that is strikingly similar to the events predicted by the Mayan alignment. The phenomenon is called the “polar shift,” in which the entire mantle of the earth would shift in a matter of days or perhaps hours during such galactic events, causing positions of the north and south pole to change, further causing worldwide disaster, earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, and other natural disasters.

Accordingly, several eclectic authors claim that a major, world-changing event will take place in 2012!

Even the book “The Orion Prophecy” claims that the Earth’s magnetic field will reverse, which further supports the Polar Shift Theory besides the prediction of Merlin that also suggests a polar shift.

NASA predicts that during 2012, as the Sun reaches the end of the current 11-year sunspot cycle, it will reverse its own magnetic poles, which may further amplify the effects of magnetic field on earth as harmful charged particles blast away from the sun (also known as solar storming).

Planet Eris/”Nibiru” or Planet-X and the Global warming: This theory suggests that the real cause of climate changes, volcanic activities, and intensification of the seismic activity etc. is the planet Eris’s getting closer to our solar system once in 3600 years, named as 2003-UB-313, which ultimately results in the melting of the glaciers! This Planet Eris or so called “Nibiru” was first observed in October 21, 2003, using 1.22 m Oschin telescope at Mount Palomar Observatory (California). It is said to have passed between Mars and Jupiter some 7200 years ago, which most probably had triggered the cataclysm “Noah’s flood” and again this will be at the close proximity to Earth between 2010 and 2012, which can cause massive melting of the glaciers, causing huge tidal waves and ultimately, the return of the Noah’s flood!

I Ching: Another sets of factors backing up this December 21, 2012 Doomsday is the I Ching prophecy. Despite the views of skeptics, the 5000 years old I Ching has become an oracle of the doomsday. The highs and lows of the I Ching graphs seems to have accurately corresponded to the fall of the roman empire, discover of the new world, and world wars of the 20th century, and the strangest things of all was, the time line came to an end to the exact specific date, December 21, 2012! Is it a coincidence that both prophecies of I Ching and Mayan Calendar came to the same exact date and time? In fact, many world’s religions and most famous prophets reference that something cataclysmic will happen around December 21, 2012. The medieval predictions of Merlin, The Book of Revelation, and the well-known Chinese Oracle of the “I Ching” all point to this specific date as the end of civilization.
The Bible Code & Nostradamus Prophesies: According to the certain algorithms of Bible code, a meteor,asteroid, or comet will soon collide with the Earth.

Everybody knows the Nostradamus prophesies, that have very accurately predicting many world leaders rising to power and major events in the past. His prophesies were accurate in predicting the demise of the World Trade Centers in 2001 as well.

Even the book “The Nostradamus Code” further speaks of a series of natural disasters caused by some kind of a “comet” and those studying the Prophecies of Nostradamus states that he might have further indicated the possibility of a “Third World War” where nuclear wars can create “comet-like” mass destructions everywhere.

So are we going to have a Third World War? At the current scenario, it seems we might have – proving the Nostradamus Prophesies.

Even the high-tech oracles which is not even human, i.e., “Web-Bots” are predicting the end of the world as December 21, 2012, besides the Mayan, I Ching, Merlin, Book Of Revelation, etc. Is it just a coincidence or a meaningless pattern of random events?
DO YOU BELIEVE IT?

There have been hundreds of “End Of The World” predictions in the past and none have come true till now. So, is this just another attempt to sell various stuffs related to Doomsday – December 21, 2012? Many people are in fact interested in knowing more about this. Are you not?

The book, “Beyond 2012″ reviews several theories, prophecies, and predictions related to this December 21, 2012, and in fact, the author has found that various authors have used “faulty information” or have “bent the truth” to fit their theories into this December 21, 2012 Doomsday.

It is a fact that the Mayan calendar ends on December 21, 2012, but should not we also consider that the initial date of the start of the Mayan civilization was 3113 B.C. and one complete cycle of the Mayan calendar would be 5,125 years in the future, i.e., Dec. 21, 2012, hence explaining why the Mayan calendar mysteriously ended on December 21, 2012! Even the Mayan priests who are currently living and working in Guatemala state that the so-called “Mayan Prophecy for 2012″, as stated by the new agers who have absolutely no idea of Mayan culture and religion, is a complete nonsense!

So why these touts and publicity of the End Of The World In December 21, 2012? Well, I’d like to ask you one thing: Doesn’t these “End Of The World” predictions sound interesting and fascinating enough for you to consider buying a book worth $20? Exactly! This is what I think these are targeted at!

All the oracles try to be as vague as possible, and even Nostradamus was right a lot of the time because whatever he predicted was so vague and so unclear that it could possibly mean millions of things. It is up to us how we interpret these vague prophecies, so it does not necessarily mean we are interpreting exactly what the oracle meant!

And yes, there are wars and rumors of wars, disasters and destructions, but this doesn’t mean the world will come to an end on December 21, 2012. Various calamities and natural disasters might come as they had been in the past, and if they again come in the future (which they will) we’d survived and we will survive! Various terrorist insurgence and major terrorist attacks may trigger another world war and hence numerous disasters may follow, but hey, doesn’t this sound like the world that we’re currently living in?

Throughout history from time to time, people believed that the end was near, and they were always wrong. The fact, however, remains that we can’t foresee the future, but what we can do is live with hopes of the future and optimism. We can only watch it with curiosity and skepticism and hope that all the oracles’ prophecy of doomsday are wrong.

2012 THE END IS NIGH

The end of the world is nearly upon us, but there's a silver lining: At least you know when your 401(k) will finally hit bottom. Mark Dec. 21, 2012 on your calendar. That's the exact day that lots of normally sane people believe some disaster will befall our planet - and not the kind of annoying everyday disaster like your cable going out or Ethan Hawke writing another novel. We're talking Biblical proportions - the end of life on Earth as we know it.

We're guessing this means the Second Avenue subway won't actually get finished.

If you're looking for someone to blame (and rightfully so), search no further than the Mayans. Examination of their calendar is responsible for much of the apocalyptic hand-wringing.

The ancient Mesoamericans were highly advanced in the areas of mathematics and astronomy, and they accurately tracked the movement of the sun and the planets. They used multiple calendars, but it's the one called the "long count" that has soothsayers so agitated. The long count calendar measures 5,126 years, then resets, marking the end of one age and the dawn of another. The current age is scheduled to end on - a cookie for anyone who can guess - Dec. 21, 2012. This day also happens to be the winter solstice and a time when the sun will be aligned with the center of the Milky Way for the first time in about 25,800 years.

Could the Mayans have known something huge was going to happen, simply by examining the stars? Lots of people think so. The doom and gloom is so mainstream, there's even "The Complete Idiot's Guide to 2012."

One such believer is Patrick Geryl, a 53-year-old Belgian, who in 2006 quit his job with an oil company and began preparing for the coming apocalypse. He's written three books on the topic, including "How to Survive 2012" and "The World Cataclysm in 2012."

He may not be the cheeriest fellow, but Geryl is committed. In Belgium, he's formed a survival group of about 20 people who plan on buying land in Africa to start building the foundation for a new society. That will be after the Earth's magnetic poles suddenly shift, causing a new Ice Age.

"The best thing you can do is stop working and go on vacation," he says. "I go on vacation six times a year."

Hollywood is on the bandwagon as well. To capitalize on the hysteria, Columbia Pictures will release "2012" this fall, a thriller starring John Cusack as a researcher trying to survive various global catastrophes. It's directed by Roland Emmerich, a man who, after reading the reviews for his wretched last film "10,000 BC," knows a thing or two about destruction.

Holidays to New York 2012

Holidays to New York 2012
New York city breaks and holidays are an experience in diversity. From the uptown glitz of the Upper West Side to the downtown bohemian chic of the West Village, from Chinatown to Little Italy, from Murray Hill to Midtown, you are presented with entirely different sights, sounds and even smells in each neighbourhood. And as if this wasn't enough, interesting new areas keep on springing up with their trendy acronyms. The latest is DUMBO (we kid you not - it stands for Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass!).
When it comes to things to do, you can expect to find out what ‘spoilt for choice’ really means. From the architecture, the history, the museums and galleries, to the clubs, theatres, restaurants and bars… weekend breaks in New York tend to be busy! Make a vague plan of what you want to see, but beware - the fizzing energy of Manhattan is bewitching, and it could carry you completely off course. Just make sure you see the best sights, like the Empire State Building with its amazing views, and leave plenty of time for the fabulous shopping during your short break in New York! A New York holiday without a trip to Macy’s just wouldn’t be right.
