Abstract
While dangers of nuclear wars and the
survival of the human race do concern us, we tend to consider natural hazards such as comets,
asteroids, volcanoes, earthquakes as unavoidable. We can be certain, though that eventually a global catastrophy will
occur. For the first time in human history there are sufficient technical
skills to begin protecting the Earth from some natural hazards. The journal is intended to illustrate how the Lifeboat Foundation
tries to develop efficient defense systems to prepare for such calamities, but
also how it bridges the dilemma created by intrusive surveillance technologies needed
to safeguard people’s security. It tries to create awareness that many details
of an individual’s private life are actually irrelevant for security purposes
and that there are limits to intrusive surveillance. The Lifeboat Foundation may be hailed in future generations as a pioneer of peace and safety with the courage to think forward when it comes to the prevention of death and destruction.

Zombies
have always been fascinating and threatening to people at the same time. The paper
provides possible origins for the term ‘zombie’ and a comparison of different
types of zombies in the first part. The Basic model presents the relationship
and characteristics of the three types 'susceptible', 'zombies' and 'removed'. In the
paper the author uses equations to back up his theories concerning the
probability and intensity of zombie caused outbreak of diseases. He finally suggests
quarantine and treatment theories for cases in which zombie invasion has
reached uncontrollable dimensions. As a conclusion a method to eradicate
zombies is presented.
