Scientists create woolly ma-mouse by looking at mean genes from the Pleistocene

This is where the expression "Mad Scientist" comes from. Shut them down.

International Space Station actually spun one-and-a-half times by errant Russian module's thrusters

It's time we stop playing astronaut in our little tin cans, Space habitats are supposed to spin, goin up there to lose muscle and bone mass is the most poorly thought out thing that ever came out of the 60's and it's amazing that we haven't figured that out yet.

It's about time someone tried to add gravity to the space station. We can't keep "Sitting in a Tin Can" up there like we have since the 1960's. Build big, add spin, forget earth, and move on outwards.

Wow, fancy that. Web ad giant Google to block ad-blockers in Chrome. For safety, apparently

Feeling superior?

The real dunderheads are the sysadmins, stuck behind a desk cluttered with wires and broken hard disks, forced to hoof around the building at anyones call from the CEO down to the Janitor supervisor. If you had a lick of imagination you'd have said take this job and shove it after you had learned all that was possible, (probably 3 months) Oh wait how are you going to pay your mortgage?
