Harold Camping, president of Family Stations Inc., apologized for his wrong May 21 Doomsday prediction but is sticking to his guns, now insisting the real Judgment day to be on October 21, 2011.
Harold Camping called the event last Saturday an "invisible judgment" and that something did occur - something "spiritual," not "physical." He added that the actual Apocalypse will now occur five months after May 21 which is on October 21st.
On the "real" Judgment day, a fireball will said to consume the earth and 200 million Christians will be carried up to heaven, according to Camping.
The 89 year-old retired engineer spent millions on more than 5,000 billboards and print ads worldwide to spread his May 21 Rapture prediction. A good portion of it said to have come from donations from his followers.
Through a book published in 1992, Camping previously predicted the Judgment Day to be happening in 1994. Justifying his first wrong prediction, he reportedly said "important subsequent biblical information was not yet known and there may be something he overlooked."

Sorry for the lack of visuals but the audio is pretty telling of how intense the storm was. The tornado hits at around 1:20 seconds.

Okkervil River’s ambitious sixth album, “I Am Very Far,” bears the sound of band that has deliberately placed itself outside of its comfort zone.

Plus, he's joined by bandmate Patrick Pestorius for a live performance in our studio.
WNYC Soundcheck: A Beastie Homage

Guest Host
Over 25 years and eight albums, the Beastie Boys have celebrated their hometown with brash shoutouts - and subtle inside jokes. Today: Guest host Sophie Harris of Time Out New York examines how the hip hop trio's newest album once again pays tribute to New York. Plus: British electronic composer James Blake brings his "post-dubstep" sound live to the Soundcheck studio.
WNYC Soundcheck: In Studio, James Blake

Earlier this year, the full-length debut from James Blake helped launch a civil war inside the British electronic genre known as dubstep. Purists decried the lack of manic dance beats, while innovators applauded the album’s icy R&B feel and Blake’s vocals, which recall a classic era of blue-eyed English soul. (His cover of Feist’s “Limit to Your Love” was just petrol on the fire.) He joins us to play live.
