The XBMC guys already made a plugin [lifehacker.com] after the last hulu change. It'll take a few hours and a new one will be made.
Those slowpokes, I've already configured my videocamera to record my computer screen, the plugin took only 30 seconds (and the only reason it took that long is because I didn't have a flashlight and it was dark under my desk.)
Not only that, but I bet their version won't encode to high-quality VHS tape format.
I reject this on principle! Natural = better! Tons of infomercials for herbal supplements have implicitly told me so! Just look at ginseng, herbal tea, cyanide, tobacco, botulin, the plague, male pattern baldness, and dying of old age at 30. All good reasons why natural equates to better!
What's funny is that my first reaction as I read the article was, "doesn't yeast produce wastes that are foreign and toxic to the human body?" And wouldn't you know it, the next section was entitled, "Waste problem". Guess they're reading my mind.:-P

First they steal our glucose, then they start reading our minds, can there be any doubt that the next step for yeasts is to take over the world and enslave us all for their nefarious purposes? We must act quickly! Everyone buy up all the monistat you can!
But sir, tis the first of April. The only day when such bullshit is allowed.
Really it should be the other way around: april fools is the one day of the year you get to complain about something you see on/. Which you voluntarily go to. And in which you do not have to read every dumb-sounding story.
Mars simulation isolation experiment log book day Two: Tensions running high between Russian volunteers and/. volunteers over constant "In soviet russia" jokes

I'm quite certain they didn't forget about it so much as they were wanting to examine the social aspects for cheaper than actually putting them in space.
Not much room for advancement though, then you're looking for a job same as everyone else, except you either have a 105 day hole/ reason to question your sanity on your resume.
And now the court says: "OK, so you were right, sorry for the bother, have a good life."? So everything is fine now as justice is served?
They're probably less damaged than they would be if we said "We're never going to have a perfect legal system that only prosecutes criminals and never is distorted by idiot prosecutors, so lets throw the justice system out entirely." Anyway, it's not over, this is just part of the process for the legal system to stop this from happening. No one is saying "everything is awesome now."
I have to say, I don't agree with the judge's assessment. With all the press coverage and a successful temporary injunction(?), I can't imagine this guy is looking forward to the campaign trail this year.
Also he'll have more time with those pictures. Eew.
If a 2 year old hands you a photo of themselves posing naked on a bear skin rug, should said 2 year be arrested for distribution of child porn and forced to register as a sex offender for the rest of their life?
2 years old? I know I wouldn't want to see that, would be pretty disturbing. And if if they're that perverted that early, better keep an eye on them. So yes, definitely.
They fail to give any meaningful data on its oxygen dissociation curve against pH, so we have no idea how it will perform as an oxygen transporter at physiological conditions.
Why you gotta be all chemical about it?
In seriousness, the Dutton lab webpage, the ones who did it, has a crystal structure image that looks like it does have the histidines in place above and below the heme ring to stabilize the O2, although it's been a while since I had a biochem course. So those could actually be anything and I wouldn't know. Matter of fact, that could be the wrong lab for all I know.
Anyway, it seems the focus of the lab is non-clinical (predictably.) They may not have mentioned any of that stuff because it was less interesting to them than "holy crap, I've actually made a completely novel protein!" It will be really really interesting to everyone else when it moves into translational / applied clinical research, but from their perspective (and mine too) this is quite remarkable in and of itself, whether or not it will itself be usefull is a close second.
For extra credit, answer the following: who should the woosh go to?

Of course they don't make profits! Those pesky pirates keep cracking their DRM and distributing the games online for free...
Damnit man! Don't say that, they'll hear you and start saying it with a straight face about wii games! This is how the whole "Used game sales basically steal from game developers" thing got started: a joke on/.!!!

'Natural' doesn't equate to "OK".

You need to relax dude, have a beer!
At the very least, a cold, frosty one will cool you down what with all the global warming it just caused.
THERE needs to be an improvement in THEIR attitude towards THEIR literacy.

Oops, sorry, that was a failure of copying, pasting, and previewing... uh... intentionally. April fools?

you believe this?
Why not, in order to be an april fools joke, humor would have to be involved, therefore I can only conclude that this is seriousness.
But sir, tis the first of April. The only day when such bullshit is allowed.

I (and many many others) have an achievement [slashdot.org] called "The Maker" ... what does that mean?
That's obvious: who made the internet? Al Gore. Slashdot thinks you're Al gore if you have that achievement.

I think Russia's sexism is showing.
In the battle between Russia's alcoholism and Russia's sexism, Canada loses.
They could have gotten an easy 1K more just by posting here.
Mars simulation isolation experiment log book day one: FIRST POST!
I want to see the video of the first failure, where it broke up because they got drunk on champagne and fought over the canadian chick.
I'm quite certain they didn't forget about it so much as they were wanting to examine the social aspects for cheaper than actually putting them in space.

So, like a coathanger, or what? Or, did you mean an airplane hangar [wikipedia.org]?
For someone going as "KDAWSON sucks" I expected more biting criticism than pointing out a typo.
And now the court says: "OK, so you were right, sorry for the bother, have a good life."? So everything is fine now as justice is served?

In the United States (and, more and more the UK and Australia), children are the enemy.
Why?
It starts from a very early age, when they poop and pee and you have to clean it up, and only gets more complicated from there.
