A couple of days ago the earth vanished in a devastating apocalypse. I’m telling you in case you shouldn’t have realized this yet.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention were nice enough to put up a FAQ explaining how to get through Armageddon safely.
“Identify your emergency contacts. Make a list of local contacts like the police, fire department, and your local zombie response team. Also identify an out-of-state contact that you can call during an emergency to let the rest of your family know you are ok.”
“Plan your evacuation route. When zombies are hungry they won’t stop until they get food (i.e., brains), which means you need to get out of town fast! Plan where you would go and multiple routes you would take ahead of time so that the flesh eaters don’t have a chance! This is also helpful when natural disasters strike and you have to take shelter fast.”
“If zombies did start roaming the streets, CDC would conduct an investigation much like any other disease outbreak. CDC would provide technical assistance to cities, states, or international partners dealing with a zombie infestation. This assistance might include consultation, lab testing and analysis, patient management and care, tracking of contacts, and infection control (including isolation and quarantine).”
(Actually, this does not seem to be a hoax … just someone with a good sense of humour)
PS.: all the 100.000.000.000 predictions of apocalypse that were uttered since humans started to think about things like the ending of the world were wrong. Maybe, just maybe that should get you thinking …

“I know you get dozens of these requests every week (5 pr day, you said? damn), and it’s hard to top whatever weird and convoluted way people are finding to grab your attention. I was hoping to make you a deal: I promise that me and my brother are great people to host, and if I’m wrong I will change my profile picture to whatever you ask it to be for 6 months! :D
i have to admit, I’m kinda pleased with myself for coming up with this brilliant plan.”
Sorry guys, I won’t be able to host you since I won’t be in Berlin for a major part of your stay.

Time for another link of the day: Pictures For Sad Children.
A friend recommended it to me, and it goes nicely together with asofterworld, the perry bible fellowship, XKCD and doghatesme/explodingdog.

Signals play a particularly important role within organisms and among individuals of highly cooperative species. Because in both these cases there is little or no conflict of interest, signals should be as cheap as possible while still maintaining reliability. Cheap signaling systems enhance the efficiency of the organism or cooperative system but they are also more easily subverted by exploitative agents (Markl 1985), such as pathogens or politicians.
