Сергей "Шнурок" Шнуров (1973-present), солист Группировки Ленинград (1997-present), исполняет песню "Выбора́" в фильме "День выборов" (2007) типа как рок-группа "Ненормалы".

Soviet group "Zodiak" ("Зодиак", 1970—1990-е).
Soviet group "Zodiak" ("Зодиак", 1970—1990-е). AFAIK only their very first album http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disco_Alliance (1980) was any good, which is enough for me:

1 Зодиак - Зодиак
2 Zodiac Pacific
3 Zodiac - Provincial Disco
6 Zodiac - Rock on ice (Зодиак - Рок на льду)_Zodiaks

ad astra per aspera alternative video clip
1 ZODIAC (LP Disco Alliance) 1980 Instrumental

Organic chemistry and physics of sausage cooking - why they curl when you cook them, but stay straight in rotary sausage grillers at a gas station. And how you can achieve the same result without fancy-shmancy devices.

2012 Ig Nobel Prize for Literature went to the US Government General Accountability Office, for issuing a report about reports about reports that recommends the preparation of a report about the report about reports about reports.

"Actions Needed to Evaluate the Impact of Efforts to Estimate Costs of Reports and Studies," US Government General Accountability Office report GAO-12-480R, May 10, 2012.

GAO rocks!

Roy Glauber was sweeping the Ig Nobel stage clean of the traditional paper airplanes for 10 years (was not worthy of an actual award), before he received 2005 Nobel Prize in Physics "for his contribution to the quantum theory of optical coherence".

Andre Geim is the only person to date to receive 2000 Ig Nobel Prize in Physics "for using magnets to levitate a frog", and 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics "for groundbreaking experiments regarding the two-dimensional material graphene".

BGH-free milk and meet is all the rage in California. BGH is a peptide Bovine growth hormone.

BGH-free milk and meet is all the rage in California. BGH is a peptide Bovine growth hormone.

Peptides and proteins don't pass through human digestive system into the blood. That would be insane. Instead they are broken into the constituent aminoacids, which are then absorbed [1]. That's the reason one has to inject another peptide hormone - insulin. Can't eat it [2].

If you were to shoot up or snort beef or milk, that still wouldn't work, assuming the reader of this is not a cow. Humans do not respond to BGH,

If you are a cow, BGH will clearly increase your milk production, which is why it is used, and if you are a bull, it may or may not increase your athletic performance.

BGH is prohibited in EU, Canada, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and allowed in USA and 21 other countries. However, if you attempt to sell raw milk, federal SWAT will get ya:

[1] Very young babies, whose digestive system is undeveloped, may let some of that through, from the mother's milk. Also, it appears that prions can get absorbed intact.

[2] Not all hormones are proteins/peptides. For example, estrogens and progestogens ("The Pill", which you can eat) are steroids, and so is testosterone and androgen.
