Last Chance to see Shuttle Fly: July 8

NASA has set a new target date for launch of its 135th and final space shuttle mission: July 8, 2011.

The 12-day cargo run to the space station aboard Atlantis would land on a hallowed day in U.S. space history -- July 20, the anniversary of the first Apollo moon landing.

Perhaps it's a symbol of hope for a future that right now looks murky at best. Perhaps its a sad note that NASA's best days are behind it. But if you're planning to come to Florida to see the launch, take note: These dates have a habit of changing.

If Atlantis launches on July 8, liftoff would take place at 11:40 a.m.

Judgment Day Hoax: World ending today May 21st 2011 - IMPOSSIBLE, says David C. Pack

Is it really Judgment Day today, May 21st, 2011?

Judgment Day is happening today, May 21st, 2011, according to a Youtube video by radio broadcaster Harold Camping and as what billboards in some parts of the world are claiming: "The Bible Guarantees May 21, 2011 as Judgment Day."

But another Youtube video says it's very impossible that Judgment Day or the world is ending today May 21, 2011.

David C. Pack, Pastor General of The Restored Church of God, speaks in the Youtube video, calling Camping a "false prophet".

Quoting a passage from Bible (Matthew 24:4), Pack says that no man knows when the world is ending and we should not be deceived by false prophets like Camping.

He also took notice of Camping's false prediction of the End of the World in 1994, and according to him, a prophet of God does not make false predictions.
