This is the last one of this century - day, month and year represented by the same number. And it seems like the century just started a moment ago - now it's almost a teenager. I suppose that's what getting old feels like.
The Jim Hines fundriser for Aicardi syndrome has passed 6000$ and some of the promised poses have already been posted and it's scary. However nothing can measure up to
the result of his pose-off with John Scalzi. They both took on The Taste of Night by Vicki Pettersson. There is a poll to vote who did it better.
Scalzi is trying to buy our votes by donating 5 cents per vote up to 500$ but I have to admit that Hines pose is almost perfect. The head position, the point, his leg even looks like it belongs to a different person just like on the cover. I'm torn.
In another follow-up here's the full version of CERN PHD students filmed at the LHC. Zombies are not my thing by LHC is so I watched it for the location - concrete tunnels, tubing and occasional shots of the machinery. And of course title is a great pun.
