CDC Zombie Apocalypse Article
Even the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has a sense of humor. On Monday, May 16, 2011, advice for dealing with a Zombie Apocalypse was posted on the CDC emergency preparedness blog by Dr. Ali Khan, director of emergency preparedness. The idea for a Zombie Apocalypse themed post was conceived by veteran communication specialist Dave Daigle. Dr Kahn immediately approved the concept and wrote the blog article himself. The plan was to increase public interest in disaster preparedness. Dr Khan's postings usually receive 1000 to 3000 views per WEEK.

List Of Mass Fish & Bird Kills Worldwide
The first national headline covered thousands of birds that apparently fell from the sky, dead, on January 1, 2011. Wildlife officials have blamed everything from fireworks startling the roosting birds, to blunt trauma caused by hail.

Everywhere from Sweden, to the US to the UK. So far, mass deaths have only been reported for birds, fish and other marine life that typically cluster together. I'll make this a sticky entry and update ...
Sun Fires “Solar Tsunami” At Earth.
Earth is in line to be hit with a "solar tsunami", as it's being called by scientists. The suns surface erupted early Sunday morning, August 2, and ejected tons of plasma. The tsunami-like shock wave, formally called a Moreton wave, rolled across the hot surface, destroying two visible filaments of cool gas on opposite sides of the visible face of the Sun. This massive solar flare will hit the Earth sometime on August 3rd and August 4th. The solar flare is expected to create geomagnetic storms that will result in spectacular light displays at the Northern latitudes, threaten satellites, cause intermittent cellular ...

Additional localised disruption continued into May 2010. Seismic activity started at the end of 2009 and gradually increased in intensity until on 20 March 2010, a small eruption started that was rated as a 1 on the Volcanic Explosivity Index.[1] Beginning on 14 April 2010, the eruption entered a second phase and created an ash cloud that led to ...

Fact Check: 2012 & The Mayans
Mayan's and 2012 - 2012 is the end-date of the current (13th) b'ak'tun of the Long Count calendar, used by the Mayan Meso-American civilization. In their creation myth, we live in the fourth "attempt" at creating the world, while the third attempt was dismissed as a failure after its own 13th b'ak'tun. Though Mayan documents contain no such information, popular culture and certain religions predict an apocalyptic event at this date. It is popularly misunderstood that the calendar "ends" on this date, however the Long Count calendar can express dates from approximately 3000BC (their date for the creation of the ...

Yellowstone Caldera & Supervolcano
What is the Yellowstone Caldera? The Yellowstone Caldera, also known as the Yellowstone supervolcano, is a highly geologically active region in Yellowstone National Park. It measures 55 kilometers by 72 kilometers. Its volcanic activity is currently exhibited only via numerous geothermal vents scattered throughout the region, including the famous Old Faithful Geyser, but within the past two million years it has undergone three extremely large explosive eruptions. The most recent such eruption occurred 640,000 years ago, and spread a layer of volcanic ash over most of the North American continent. Smaller explosive eruptions, similar to the 1980 Mount St. Helens eruption, occur every ...
