Hi again,
Today, we are in Akumal, an area known as the most Americanized part of the Riviera Maya.
Strangely, as we entered the well-manicured yards, tiled sidewalks, and area of luxurious condos, my gut felt tight and I realized I felt afraid. Of what, I don’t know – that I’m not wealthy enough, cool enough, or that I couldn’t compete well enough . .. . something like that.
In the modest Mayan villages there was more of a feeling of people helping each other out.
I was unable to write yesterday because my mini laptop/netbook developed a connection problem at the more Americanized hotel where we are staying. Ironic, isn’t it?
Today, I’m in a noisy internet cafe with kids playing on a pinball machine and a slightly sticky mouse. That’s OK, at least I can communicate with you today.
Yesterday, we scourged the huge Coba ruin, to find something I could not find last year – the stela with the Long Count Calendar Date of 41.9 billion billion billion years into the future. I think we found it.
This is an important stela because it proves that the Mayan Long Count Calendar does not end on December 21, 2012, if the ancient Maya carved a date 41.9 billion billion billion years into the future. Furthermore, it proves that the ancient Maya did not believe the world would end in 2012.
Today, we were in Tulum, the gorgeous Caribbean seaside ruin, to find and videotape images of Itzamna. This time, I’m sure these are actual images of the son of the creator god, Hunab K’u. Many Tulum guides brought tourists to the place that Victor Olalde our Chichen Itza friend and guide, had told us would be there.
I am feeling pretty good. At last, I know for sure, that I have an image of Itzamna, the old wise prophet.

Hi again,
I promised you more orbs photographs from recipients of this enewsletter. Here are some of them.
These orbs photos are from Michael Day. As before, I’ve also included close ups of various orbs. By the way, for your information, you can see these photograph in an enlarged format if you click on them.
This orbs photo shows a close up of the orb floating above the man in blue with his hands in a prayerful pose. I’ve used Photoshop‘s “brighten and contrast” feature to bring out the patterns in the orb. By doing so, I inadvertently exposed more orbs than were previously visible.
Although these photos were submitted specifically to show orbs in a photograph, I also enjoy the opportunity to view the experience of being at a spiritual retreat in India. This photograph also shows a couple of golden orbs.
A close up of the large orb in the above photograph.
I like this close up because it shows a number of orbs superimposed one on top of the other. I also like that you can see how transparent they are and the patterns within the orbs.
This final orbs photos shows a cloud of orbs. If they truly are spirits, as some people believe, there certainly were many attracted to this spiritual retreat in India.
A close up of the glowing orb above the man’s head in the above orbs picture – lovely.
Thanks, Michael Day, for sending these orbs photos to me so I could share them with others.
There are still more Orbs Photos to come and I will post them when I get home from Yucatan. I’m leaving tomorrow to take the final footage for my 2012 movie.

Today, I’m working on reserving accommodations in the Yucatan, Mexico, for the final shooting of my 2012 Doomsday Movie.

Here’s an excerpt from a blogspot on 2012 that, I believe, comes from Russia or the Ukraine or one of the Slavic countries since many of the links are in Cyrillic Script.
What this means to me is that people in Russia, the Ukraine, or other Slavic countries are thinking about and aware of the 2012 Doomsday Prophecies.
Here’s the cute quote from Dr. Karl Kruszelnicki who appears to be a physics professor at the University of Sydney, Australia.
Australia!!! Wow! This 2012 prophecy stuff really get around!
OK, Here’s Dr. Karl:
“…when a calendar comes to the end of a cycle, it just rolls over into the next cycle. In our Western society, every year 31 December is followed, not by the End of the World, but by 1 January. So 13.0.0.0.0 in the Mayan calendar will be followed by 0.0.0.0.1 – or good-ol’ 22 December 2012, with only a few shopping days left to Christmas.” – Excerpt from Dr Karl’s “Great Moments in Science“.
360 degrees review: No Doomsday in 2012
Maybe the blogspot has Cyrillic Script on it because Vladimir Korsakov, the writer of this post, is bilingual in English and Russian or another Cyrillic Script language.
Check it out!

Here’s a description of one of many intriguing 2012 videos on this blog site.
With the airing of “Nostradamus;2012? on the History Channel 01/04/09, Homey3 gives insight to the prophecies of 2012 and how Nostradamus even prophesied years after 2012 and talks about “God” with introduction to the book: Prophecies with a Divine Answer!!!

Since the December 21, 2012 date comes from a translation of Mayan glyphs, I believe it is important to find out what Maya people say about 2012. Here’s an excerpt of a letter from Mayan Elder Hunbatz Men of the Itza tradition in northern Yucatan:
We the Mayans who have not been cultured by the Western
Culture do not agree with all the negative things our sacred
calendars have been involved in.

This is a quote from a letter sent from Hunbatz Men, Mayan Elder in the Itza tradition to Colin Andrews who is co-author of The Idiot’s Guide to 2012. It appears that, according to Hunbatz Men, 2012 is not an issue for native Maya.
the belief of
the year 2012 was invented by the American archaeologist Eric Thompson when he visited
the archaeological site of COBA, Mexico. He claimed he found that information in that place.

I’ve been looking up 2012 movies to see how they compare with the one I’m working on. To my surprise, I’ve seen trailers for 2012 movies with what appears to be Tibetan Monks, something about the dead coming alive, a talking head movie of a young guy with such poor audio I can hardly hear what he’s saying who is denouncing the whole thing as a scam to make money, another talking head view of young man speaking at a conference.
Isn’t 2012 about December 21, 2012, the end of the Long Count Calendar of the ancient Maya? It appears as if there are few 2012 movies about the Maya people, ancient and modern, of Mexico. That’s what my 2012 movie is about.

Yesterday, I had a delightful interview with Robert K. Sitler, Ph. D., Director of Latin American Studies at Stetson University in DeLand, Florida. I first learned of Dr. Sitler from his excellent article, “2012 and the Maya World” in the book, The Mystery of 2012.
Dr. Sitler has visited and studied the Maya for over 30 years and brings direct knowledge of their culture and their perspectives on 2012. It was a great interview – about an hour and half in length – which I can incorporate in my 2012 movie.
Thank you, Dr. Sitler.
