Reuters - Altering a single gene in a fruit fly can turn its sexual orientation around, causing male flies to lose interest in females, and females to display male mating rituals to other females, according to a study published in the journal Cell on Friday.

Yale has taken to turning their fruit flies into personal (and completely ineffectual) insect slaves, controlling their movements by stimulating their brains with laser pulses. If controlling fruit flies by laser-remote wasn't cool or creepy enough for you, Yale's professors took it the extra step, controlling headless fruit flies the same way:

At one point, they removed the heads of several flies and discovered it was still possible to sufficiently stimulate the remaining neurons to induce activity.

Cell has a video of the headless fly in action, so be sure to check that out.

MuVo2 FM Joins Fruit Brigade

MuVo2 FM Joins Fruit Brigade 09/01/2004 12:01 PM

The iPod mini colors strike again, this time bringing down Creative's MuVo2, now available in five, easy-to-digest pastels. Well, and black. And it's possible white isn't technically a pastel, but still, these are clearly iPod inspired. The new MuVo2 version also will have a 5GB hard drive, instead of the previous 4GB version, and will now include a built-in FM receiver.

So far they're Japan only, going for around $250. The last MuVo2, if you'll remember, was almost universally adopted so that it could be broken open and its 4GB Microdrive scavenged for use in digital cameras. I would bet there is something - the lack of a proper Compact Flash interface, for instance - in these new models that will prevent that, but until an intrepid photographer hammers a new one open, we'll just have to wait and see. (Thanks, Jon!)

Fruit porn sparks outrage

Xeni Jardin: BoingBoing reader Alex points to this purportedly XXX image (organic teabagging?) ripped from the Kama Fruitra, and says, "This Ananova story contains images of Maoam fruit wrappers which appear to show fruit in sexual positions. A Catholic college has complained. What is interesting is that Haribo doesn't seem to have denied this interpretation, calling the packaging 'very racy,' and saying, 'The new wrapping is certainly fruitier than the old. But we have not had any other complaints. In fact until now the feedback has all been positive."

Link to news story. Link to Maoam website with barely legal hothothot fruity porn wrapper pics.

Update: BoingBoing reader ix says, "The reader quoted in your post says, A Catholic college has complained. That's not quite right. It seems, as this site says, that it has been a joke by graduates (abiturienten) of a catholic school (jesuitenkolleg zu sankt blasien - really, more a highschool than a college) back in March. Not really hot this story, but a German magazine made it a story again a couple of day ago (more on that here: Link)."
