That would work if it was frozen sea water. It's not. It took Millions Of Years to get to that size and the ecosystem had time to get used to any salinity changes. Nothing can get used to 1-2 years of rapid iceberg melt in the local area and killing off the krill. I can't help you if you have never added ice to a drink and cannot visualise the effect it has on the flavour.

I too have an AOL address. I inherited it when AOL absorbed my Netscape account. If anyone is filtering job applications based on email address, I'm not sure I want to work for them - they sound lazy.

Not so. Nematodes are used because they have a very fast life cycle and you can study multiple generations. Perfect for mitochondrial studies such as this and mitochondria are pretty much mitochondria no matter the species.

The summary is bad because its a c&p of TOA summary which seems to be just a pulp piece on various ageing research topics. That's not what the original paper was about. The original paper in Nature was kinda cool in itself. Simple summary - Nematodes lasted 70% longer when fed a ton of ÃZ±-KG. Some new areas to be studied, but nothing much to see here.

Reads more as a marketing pitch for an IT startup than a research article abstract.

Unless the world got really fscked up since I was last at uni.

Actually he was not if you RTA. He was exploiting zone mechanics to deliberately annoy other players.
He wasn't fighting villains as the game designers intended... the real problem here is the game's moderators allowed the behavior because they could not prevent it without breaking the game. They could however protect him from all those mean nasty taunts and threats.

This kind of behavior is not news. Other MMORPGs have had similar issues. Everquest had the "Bard charm-the-dragon to kill the other dragon (or players)" exploits. World of Warcraft had the "lead the dragon to X major city to kill all the players" exploits. City of Heroes was never originally designed to allow Heros to fight other players as Villains. It was the addition of the PvP after City of Villains was released (2006?) that introduced the "exploit" mentioned.

All three examples above came as a result of the game designers releasing expansions with changes that had unforeseen consequences.

This so called "gaming professor" could have researched his paper entirely by reading other older games forums. Just like hunting whales provides very little new scientific insight - this guy didn't have to grief a server to get his name in lights. I would even go as far as to suggest the paper was entirely secondary.

It's great for the primary cancer tumour, but there is no indication though if it will help the patient long term. Normally when the tumour becomes inoperable it's already metastasized - in case of prostate cancer, into the bones.
