The world will end. The sinners will get a free vacation to Disney and the meek will inherit the Earth. Condition: in need of major repair and a fresh coat of paint. God and the Devil will play parcheesi for the fate of David Bowie and the ratings will be through the roof. The Mayans were right and the end is nigh! A Comedian will die in New York or possibly Las Vegas depending on whether his contract comes up for renewal. THE SKIES WILL TURN RED AS THE OCEANS BOIL AWAY FINALLY MAKING THE TITANIC A FEASIBLE TOURIST TRAP!

Predicted and scheduled events
Alan Turing Year - Commemorating the mathematician, computer pioneer, and code-breaker on the centennial of his birth.
January
January 1 - Poland will adopt the Euro.
January 13–22 - The first Winter Youth Olympics will be held in Innsbruck, Austria.
January 31 - 433 Eros, the second-largest Near Earth Object on record (size 13×13×33 km) will pass Earth at 0.1790 astronomical units (26,778,019 km; 16,639,090 mi). NASA studied Eros with the NEAR Shoemaker probe launched on 1996-02-17.
February
February 5 - Super Bowl XLVI will be played at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana.
March
March 22 - Unless the European Council votes to extend current copyright law, The Beatles debut album, Please Please Me, will fall out of copyright.
April
April 17 - The United States will cede wartime control of the military of the Republic of Korea after 50 years and dissolve the Combined Forces Command. Two distinct military commands (South Korea and the United States) will operate in Korea during wartime, rather than one unified command under the Combined Forces Command.
May
May 20 - Annular solar eclipse, a Sunday. Path of totality runs through the Pacific Ocean from northern China to California.
June
June 6 - The second and last solar transit of Venus of the century. The next pair is predicted to occur in 2117 and 2125.
June 9 – July 1 - The UEFA Euro 2012 will be played in Poland and Ukraine.
June 18 – June 23 – Turing Centenary Conference at the University of Cambridge, in honor of the mathematician, computer scientist, and cryptographer Alan Turing, the last day of the conference being the hundredth anniversary of his birth.
July
July 18–21 - The 2012 World Rowing Championships will be held at Plovdiv, Bulgaria.
July 27 - Opening ceremony of the 2012 Summer Olympics begins in London at 7:30 pm UTC, 8:30pm BST.
August
August 12 - Closing ceremony of the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, a Sunday.
August 29 - Start of the 2012 Summer Paralympics.
November
November 6 - The United States Presidential, Senate, and House of Representatives elections.
November 13 - Total solar eclipse (visible in northern Australia and the South Pacific).
November 28 - Penumbral lunar eclipse.
December
See also: 2012 Doomsday prediction
December 3 - Jupiter oppositions.
December 21 - 11:11 UTC. Winter Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere, Summer Solstice in the Southern Hemisphere.
December 21 - The Mesoamerican Long Count calendar, notably used by the Maya civilization among others of pre-Columbian Mesoamerica, completes its thirteenth b'ak'tun, or minor numerical sub-cycle, since the calendar's mythical starting point (equivalent to August 11, 3114 BC in the proleptic Gregorian calendar, according to the "GMT correlation" JDN = 584283). The Long Count B'ak'tun date of this starting point (13.0.0.0.0) is repeated for the first time in a span of approximately 5,125 solar years. The significance of this period-ending to the pre-Columbian Maya themselves is unclear, and there is an incomplete inscription (Tortuguero Monument 6) that records this date. It is also to be found carved on the walls of the Temple of Inscriptions in Palenque, where it functions as a base date from which other dates are computed. But the Maya certainly did not take it as representing the end of the current world, since an inscription by Pacal at Palenque looks forward to a royal anniversary on October 15, 4772.
December 23 - An alternative date for the completion of the thirteenth B'ak'tun in the Maya calendar, using a correlation constant of 584285 (a.k.a. the Thompson, "astronomical" or "Lounsbury correlation"), which is supported by a few Mayanist researchers.
December 31 - The Kyoto Protocol will expire.
Unknown dates
Ireland will cease analogue television broadcasts.
China will launch the Kuafu spacecraft.
Pleiades, a proposed super computer built by Intel and SGI for NASA's Ames Research Center, will be completed, expected to reach a peak performance of 10 Petaflops (10 quadrillion operations per second).
Sequoia, a proposed super computer built by IBM for the National Nuclear Security Administration will be completed, expected to reach a peak performance of 20 Petaflops.
Start of the commercial operation of the first unit from the Novovoronezh Nuclear Power Plant II.
The 108 ft (33 m) Elwha Dam and 210 ft (64 m) Glines Canyon Dam will be removed from the Elwha River in Washington state, marking the largest dam removal project in history.
The Canberra class light aircraft carriers/large amphibious ships, the largest ships ever to be operated by the Royal Australian Navy, will be in service.
On the sun, the solar maximum of Solar Cycle 24 in the 11-year sunspot cycle is forecast to occur. Solar Cycle 24 is regarded to have commenced January 2008, and on average will reach its peak of maximal sunspot activity around 2012. The period between successive solar maxima averages 11 years (the Schwabe cycle), and the previous solar maximum of Solar Cycle 23 occurred 2000 - 2002. During the solar maximum the sun's magnetic poles will reverse.
The United Kingdom will complete a 5-year process to cease analogue television broadcasts region-by-region, with Meridian Broadcasting, ITV London, Tyne Tees Television and UTV being the last areas to switch off analogue.
