| I personally don't have anything to do with this.. I was just on craigslist and came across this. I'm pretty damn excited about it. "Attn: Zombies of All Ages! Join the NOLA Zombie Walk! Zombie Walks are the new underground events in major cities. NOLA needs to get in on this! We are hoping to organize NOLA's first Zombie Walk for the 2010 Mardi Gras and we need as many zombie's as possible to participate. Interested in joining the undead for a spectacular night? Email NOLAzombiewalk@gmail.com and get in on the action!" Here's the link: http://neworleans.craigslist.org/grp/1530333920.htmlI hope this works out. :):):) EDIT: I sent an email to that address and got this: Welcome Zombies of all ages! The NOLA Zombie Walk is scheduled for Lundi Gras - Monday, Feb. 15th, 2010. Details: 6:30pm: Zombies gather in front of the Imax Theater (on the river side) by the Aquarium of the Americas. 6:45pm: Lurch Begins! Route: From Imax -> St. Peter St. (via Woldenberg Park) -> Royal St. (passing through Jackson Square) -> Canal Street -> Imax. | |

| wtf_sexismSelf-described as "a little community with a lot of rage," you can soak up impassioned vibes and read blistering exposes detailing sexist attitudes in the news, pop culture, and science! A must-join community if you are, or love, a feminist. (NB: the topic of whether a "man" can be a feminist is outside the scope of this spotlight, but will probably wind up on the Writer's Block.) | |

| I think they should have left out the adoring fans and made this a pure survival horror musical, but A Hard Day's Night of the Living Dead. is a pretty good mashup (2 1/2 minute promo). Hey, is there a survival horror musical genre yet? Zombopera? Maybe this is the next big thing. - Condition:amused

| I was surfing the net and ran across this site, a list of "Essential Gear to Survive a Zombie Attack." Most of these are great idea's, and some of them I'm wondering why even bother. Some of the items, which are invaluable during a Zack attack: - the Bump Key Set, (which directs you to a site that sells lock picks, interesting in its own right.) Essentially its a master key for, lets say Master lock, and can open almost any locked door or lock attached to a door made by Master lock. Of course, if you have a hoard slowly shambling or running towards you at break neck speeds 50 yards away, its not recommended that you stop and find the right key to break in.
- Personal GPS locator - which is good if other survivors have a GPS locator and can come or are willing to come to your help.
- Walkie talkie headsets - The potential for a zombie to grab a hold onto the walkie talkie headsets is minor but still there, but with a few minor adjustments certainly better than the hand held walkie talkie's
- Lightweight Soft Case First Aid kit - enough said, right?
- ATAC Storm boots - definitely a good idea. Tennis shoes and flip flops are an invitation to disaster.
- Life Gear Survival Backpack (Bug Out Bag) - Everyone should have one but this bag includes some things I wouldn't have thought of: a respirator mask in case of airborne toxins, or infections.
- Neck protector - while invaluable, I would be hesitant to recommend this because of the possible restriction in head movement . You need to be able to constantly check your surroundings and this might hamper that ability.
The others while funny (sunglasses, zombie brain gelatin mold, an Mp3 from a band, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, a fridge magnet) and helpful like the titanium cricket bat, ballistic groin protector, crowbar, electric chainsaw, 4" hatchet, and full face helmet. I, personally, would hesitate to include any of these on any list. Something to think about. - Condition:bored

In the first two years, the competition brought in over £65,000 (that's $107,260.73 U.S.!), with entries from 130 countries last year. Renaissance10 recently joined LiveJournal to meet other passionate photographers and find supportive friends. | |
