Assorted links, vol. 3

The tabs of post-worthy articles are once again piling up, so here you go:

--The government wants its documents to be more comprehensible to the public (a laudable goal!)
--Speaking of writing, here is a good categorization of different degrees of grammar rules and style points (and has anyone read any of these three books?)
--Why do 23% of Republicans continue to assert that Obama was born abroad...after his long form birth certificate was released?
--CDC warning on how to deal with zombie apocalypses
--Democratic and Republican profs grade differently
--In a sadly unsurprising and idiotic result, white Americans think they are facing discrimination
--Here's the text of Obama's speech on the Middle East

That's all for this episode -- what do you think?  I'm considering posting more of these round-up posts (hopefully around once a day) and moving away from individual topics.  Thoughts?
