Zombies could wipe out humanity in 100 days
A new study has suggested that it would not take long for a zombie apocalypse to wipe out mankind.
The research, which was conducted by physics students at the University of Leicester, was based on the assumption that each zombie would be able to locate at least one victim each day and that they would have a 90% chance of infecting anyone that they happened to come in contact with.
After approximately 100 days, the study suggests, there would be a mere 273 human survivors - a figure that would make even The Walking Dead seem like an optimistic scenario by comparison.
On the plus side however the researchers also determined that if mankind did happen to find a way to combat the zombies then there would be a good chance of population recovery in the long run.
The team's findings were based on the SIR ( susceptible, infectious, recovered ) model which is more traditionally used to calculate the spread of real diseases through the population.
"Every year we ask students to write short papers for the Journal of Physics Special Topics," said Dr Mervyn Roy from the University of Leicester's Department of Physics and Astronomy.
"It lets the students show off their creative side and apply some of the physics they know to the weird, the wonderful, or the everyday."

The Hidden Origins of Il Separatio: Manuscripts Deemed Dangerous and Banned | Ancient Origins
Throughout history a large number of books have been banned only because
they contained various uncomfortable truths or tales. Such books have
been systematically hunted down and destroyed by representatives of the
church or the state. Some copies have even been poisoned, thus giving
the books a reputation of being cursed, as those who read them ended up
dying due to the fatal poisons. Such was the case of books mentioning or
telling tales about the entity known as Il Separatio.

A Lusty Invocation to Pan
A Lusty Invocation to Pan
Pan, oh Pan, Horned God of ManLord of the hunt and forestland
Lead us where the wild wind blows,
The witches dance and the henbane grows
Lord of Summer we call Thy name
Appear to us in the sacred flame
Guide us in Thy secret rites
where Crossroads meet on a Moonless night
Pan, oh Pan, half goat half man,
we heed your call from a far off land
Before Thy grove, naked we stand
with lust in our hearts and phallus in hand
Wild beast, hoof and horn
Spread our buttocks to mirth and scorn
Spare us not your fiery lust
but release Thy seed in Thy final thrust
With insatiable lips and loins spread wide
We invite Thee Pan to come inside
Pan, Pan, oh Great God Pan
Lord of our hearts in this mystical land
Lead us to the meadow’s stream
Or abandon us in a lover’s dream
But come again as soon as Thou can
come again oh Great God Pan!
