Prophecy fail:No soul caught in a jar

Another date has come and gone without a prophecy in the Sun coming true. Back in May, they gave us a list of stuff that would happen in 2010 according to Nostradamus. According to the list, scientist would capture the soul of a dying human being in a jar. No scientist has come forward claiming such a thing, so it's another swing and a miss for everybody's favorite vague French 16th Century poet and prophet.

Or maybe we should give the fail to the pointy headed scientists who failed to do this obviously awesome thing.

The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow Alert™:Laws of physics still in effect

The Sun gets another prophecy wrong, this one about... the sun! No, not about itself, but instead that star about 96 million miles away from us that we see and feel on a daily basis.

Back in May, the Sun said that Nostradamus predicted in July 2010 a solar flare would cause earthquakes. Well, of course there were earthquakes this month, there always are, and solar flares as well, but there's no science that links the two. Everybody I could find on the Internets conflating the two phenomena I would put in the category of "crackpot".
