What Happens When You Die? Evidence Suggests Time Simply Reboots

What happens when we die? Do we rot into the ground, or do we go to heaven (or hell, if we've been bad)? Experiments suggest the answer is simpler than anyone thought. Without the glue of consciousness, time essentially reboots.
The mystery of life and death can't be examined by visiting the Galapagos or looking through a microscope. It lies deeper. It involves our very selves. We wake and find ourselves in the present. There are stairs below us, which we seem to have climbed; there are stairs above us, which go upward into the unknown future. But the mind stands at the door by which we entered and gives us the memories by which we go about our day. Everything is ordered and predictable. We're like cuckoo birds who appear through a door each morning. We fancy there's a clockwork set in motion at the beginning of time.
"UFO Cloud" Spotted over Moscow

And you thought rainbows were cool. A few days ago, a mysterious cloud shaped like a halo appeared over Moscow, and the buzz has yet to break.
We're the first to admit that a photograph of the heavenly cloud appears to be photoshopped. It's just so...perfect. But meterologists have spoken up and said the cloud wasn't digitally altered. However, it wasn't exactly what it appeared to be, either.
Dracula's Cellar found.

Toronto, October 3: Archaeologists have found a cellar
in the university town of Pecs in southern Hungary, which they believe to have
belonged to Wallachian Duke Vlad III, more commonly known as "Dracula."
According to a report in the Digital Journal, Tamas Fedeles, tutor of medieval
and early modern history at Pecs University said that his research showed that
Vlad III Tepes alias "Dracula," lived in a two-story town house on what is now
the city's central square.
Fedeles said that the Duke of Wallachia (modern-day southern Rumania) owned the
house in the 1460s and this is confirmed by a 1489 document that refers to it as
"Drakulya House."
The document contains a detailed description of the house and from this, Fedeles
said that the cellar most likely belonged to "Drakulya".
Oliver Gabor, a local archaeologist, said that this cellar was one of the most
impressive medieval cellars found to date. In his opinion, further excavations
could turn up interesting finds.
Science appears to contradict Mayan 2012 doomsday

The class of 2012 may have more to worry about in
the months following their graduation than a
struggling job market.
There is a growing belief that the world as we know
it will end shortly after current freshmen graduate.
Most believers point to an ancient Mayan calendar as
a harbinger of the end of days.
According to the Web site www.armageddononline.org,
the Mayans developed a measure to count days called
the Long Count, which began Aug. 11, 3114 B.C. and
is scheduled to end Dec. 21, 2012.
There are many proposed theories of how the world
will end. One involves the alignment of planets and
galaxies during the Winter Solstice, which is
scheduled to occur Dec. 21, 2012. Believers of this
theory predict that a planetary alignment will
affect the gravitational pull throughout the solar
system and cause Earth’s polarity to reverse, making
the North Pole the south and the South Pole the
north.
Paul Stoddard, an NIU planetary science professor,
discredits this theory.
NASA bombing the moon to search for water
Posted by WPAR_Rob on Thursday, October 08 @ 05:01:46 CDT (113 reads)
NASA plans to launch a powerful missile aimed directly at the South
pole of the moon with the goal of blasting a hole in the lunar surface.
Space scientists believe the blast would break up any lunar ice trapped
underneath, propelling it above the moon’s surface, allowing NASA to detect the water molecules.
The search for water and other natural resources in space has long
been a goal of space exploration. And finding sources of water on the
moon would make future lunar missions easier and less costly, if there
is no need to transport water from Earth.
The Lunar Crater Observing and Sensing Satellite or LCROSS mission will send a missile traveling at twice the speed of a bullet to blast a hole in the lunar surface of the moon on Friday.
