With no sign of Judgment Day arriving as he had forecast, the 89-year-old California evangelical broadcaster and former civil engineer behind the pronouncement seemed to have gone silent on Saturday.

Family Radio, the Christian stations network headed by Harold Camping which had spread his message of an approaching doomsday, was playing recorded church music, devotionals and life advice unrelated to the apocalypse.

Camping previously made a failed prediction Jesus Christ would return to Earth in 1994.

In his latest pronouncement, he had said doomsday would begin in Asia, but with midnight local time come and gone in Tokyo and Beijing and those cities already in the early hours of May 22, there was no indication of an apocalypse.

The Oakland, California, headquarters of the network of 66 U.S. stations was shuttered with a sign in the door that read "This Office is Closed. Sorry we missed you!"

THE End of the World will all be upon us on Saturday, according to Californian preacher Harold Camping, but is there really any substance behind his predictions?

According to the 89-year-old minister,  the world will come to an end on May 21st 2011 at 6pm as Jesus Christ returns to earth to gather the faithful into heaven in an event known as The Rapture.

The Rapture, predicted by Camping has gained global support, with some believers even quitting their jobs to prepare for the world's end.

But skeptics have also gathered in their masses - particularly in America, where non-believers are due to celebrate the continuation of the world after Saturday.

Some British theologians however have not entirely discounted the view held by Camping, who believed that the 'whole universe would be destroyed by fire'.

On the Great Seal of the United States, first suggested by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776, there was to be emblazoned a new motto: "E Pluribus Unum"—"Out of many, one." It was in their unity, not their diversity, that the strength of the colon

If this nation truly wants to control illegal immigration, then we must end incentives to break the law. Driver's licenses and subsidized college education are two huge incentives that will only encourage more people to break the law.

Fred Thompson yesterday became the first major presidential candidate to embrace attrition as the solution to illegal entry, saying the government should deny illegal aliens a hiding place by cracking down on the businesses and sanctuary cities that shiel
