If they had implanted the egg into a uterus instead of extracting the stem cells it would have developed into a more or less normal human.
Um, not exactly. In fact, I'd be very surprised if it survived past a few more cell divisions. Last I heard, it was virtually impossible to clone primates due to a lack of mitotic-spindle apparatus in the transferred nucleus. (see here)
Having said that, from what the article said it seems they've found a way around that somehow. I'd wait until it's had some proper peer review before I believed it, though.
No, you do not need to pay to get fullscreen. At least, not if you use a mac.
Try the following AppleScript:
tell application "QuickTime Player" activate set request to display dialog "Select a scaling, fool!" with icon note buttons {"normal", "double", "screen"} default button "screen" if button returned of request is "normal" then present movie 1 scale normal else if button returned of request is "double" then present movie 1 scale double else if button returned of request is "screen" then present movie 1 scale screen end if end tell
In this instance it was a "work of art", and the rabbit was transformed using GFP (green fluorescent protein, originally from jellyfish). Oh, and Alba looks perfectly normal, except when you shine UV light on her, then she glows green.
I recently did a project on various species of fish, and we got most of our data from Fishbase, which has, among other pieces of information, how the fish can be cooked.
Over here in NZ, you can't get broadband without a cap. If you're using the 128k limited version, you get between 5 and 12 gigs per month, but if you're using full-speed ADSL you get either 500 or 1000 megs per month. That's it. And that's charged by Telecom, so if you want ADSL you don't have a choice in the matter.
I had this cheap translucent-blue regular (not optical) USB mouse..
I had this problem with it, though - it would just randomly stop working. Well actually, it would move left and right, but not up and down. I did the usual cleaning, but to no avail. Then I realised that it only happened if I moved my head like this...
Turns out that the sunlight coming in the window was interfering with the optical pickups off the mouse ball. When I moved my head, the shadow moved off the mouse. All because of that cool-looking translucent casing.
Henwen is basically just a GUI wrapper to configure Snort. But, that said, it is very useful - can't be bothered trying to figure out all those complex rules and which ones I need, but Henwen makes it simple.
In my opinion, the best part of Henwen is LetterStick - its a little app which, combined with slightly modified Snort code, pops up a window every time Snort has an alert. It means you can easily get a real-time check on your network.
If it were possible to make a virus that would cause extremely massive casualties, don't you think it would have evolved already?
No, because a virus is essantially a parisite. A successful parasite is one that has little or no impact on its host - to reduce the selective pressure on the host becoming resistant to the parisite.
Imagine this: In a herd of animals, some are infected with a virus that doesn't kill them, but makes them very sick. Those animals are going to be easy prey for preditors, so the animals are under a strong selective pressure to become immune to that virus. If however, the virus has little or no effect on the animal's survival and reproduction, then there is no selection.

I did make a few modifications, however.
Try the following AppleScript:

They use a special autoclave cycle so that the mice don't die, apparently.

That way we know to press any key, but those who get confused by this sort of thing will just press the 'a' key. Problem solved!
