This is a link post New Naked Scientist Podcast I made this!
New and Emerging diseases go under the microscope in this week's Naked Scientists, as we discover how new diseases arise, cross species barriers and spread throughout the population. We hear about the origins of HIV, the conditions that create hotspots for new pathogens and a fatal new virus found in Africa. Also, we find out why some people are genetically pre-disposed to AIDS, how the giardia bug changes coats to trick the immune system and why captive elephants live shorter lives than in the wild. Plus, in Kitchen Science, Ben takes the Tabasco Temperature Test to see how mints and chilli affect the temperature on your tongue!

the Naked Scientists

I have now discovered that eating mints with Tabasco on is actually a pleasant and addictive experience.

This is a normal post This utter, utter shit
From a Leona Lewis-alike who has won a show where millions can be made by turning up, singing songs written by other people (which continues after they win) and with none of the groundwork that most people who haven't been on such a show have to put in to reach similar heights of fame. Last year's winner has done it too and just put out a crap version of a Snow Patrol song which people are fawning over for some unknown reason.

And the fact that shit like this pushes out all the quirky, fun little songs that used to make it to number one at Christmas pisses me off too!

This is a normal post Look on the brightside...
Its the most credible thing to have ever happened to the X factor, a cult classic has made it into the mainstream and now a nation of ignorami are aware of Leonard Cohen's amazing work. And he laughs all the way to the bank, as it should be. And the Buckley brigade really can fuck off, most of them couldn't give a toss about Cohen's version, which means they have a lot in common with the average X factor fan.

This is a normal post Well, your point would be correct if Buckley's version was as utterly shit as this one.

This is a normal post well...
as much as I like the Buckley version, I find it quite contrived. Its hallelujah for people who like credible sounding music, sung by a cute guy with a guitar that the girls can all fawn over (Ask most of the indie brigade if they've heard anything else from the Grace album) The xfactor version is for people that like their music to sound mainstream and in a short pop burst. Each to their own. Lenny's version all the way for me, I blubbed like a bitch when I saw him do it live recently.

This is a normal post And how will people hearing it for the first time know it's Cohen's work?
They'll probably just know it as 'that song from Shrek, only a hell of a lot worse'

This is a normal post We Love The Web
because it is full of weird and wonderful stuff which we haven't seen before. If we want to watch xfactor we can easily turn on a tv.
