	HHMI News: Visualizing a Potassium Channel
		MacKinnon's laboratory and others around the world understood that a complete picture of a potassium channel was badly needed.
		MacKinnon and Hughes investigator Christopher Miller at Brandeis University had performed earlier experiments that showed that the deadly scorpion toxin binds tightly to eukaryotic potassium channels.
		In collaboration with Rockefeller colleagues Steven Cohen and Brian Chait, MacKinnon's team showed that the scorpion toxin binds to a slightly modified bacterial potassium channel, confirming that the two channels are structurally similar.

	TheStar.com - FemBots make order from chaos (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The FemBots, another Toronto outfit, was formed by a pair of multi-instrumentalists, Dave MacKinnon and Brian Poirier, who sought refuge from the conventional quartet approach, first by insulating themselves as a duo and later by inviting a growing number of guests to join the creative enterprise.
		"Brian and I got the material to maybe 35 or 40 per cent of where we wanted it to be and left it for everybody else to turn it into what it is. And they did a miraculous job.
		It is ironic, perhaps, that as MacKinnon and Poirier have gradually surrendered a degree of artistic control, the songs have become increasingly tighter.

	Exclaim! Canada's Music Authority
		Dave MacKinnon and Brian Poirier of FemBots are lamenting lost history.
		They self-recorded and released their debut disc, Mucho Cuidado, which MacKinnon says was an attempt to make a disc that sounded more like a mix-tape than a full-length album.
		MacKinnon says, “Even though all the songs had been written before we got to the studio, we were very much trying to keep the approach that the inspiration is happening while you’re recording.”

		Hollywood could not have come up with a better storyline than that of MacKinnon, the 32-year-old who pretended to be a teenager and went back to school in Bearsden to get the Highers he needed to study medicine at university.
		But there were public squabbles with MacKinnon and the rest of the money never quite came together.

		I could say that The Lying Ape is ideal for use in school modern studies courses, but that would be damning with faint praise.
		Those are typical of the kinds of deception that Brian King examines in this short book.
		That this all reads a little like an extended radio script, it is probably because Brian King is a BBC producer.

		The seductive power of a story line was at work in the odd case of Brian MacKinnon.
		So he plucked his eyebrows, got a perm, adopted a Canadian accent, took on a new name and reapplied in 1993 to join a class in which most students were aged 16 and 17.
		But they discounted the evidence of their eyes because - well - he had been accepted at the school as a teen so he must be a teen.

		This morning at Alternative Grounds I was telling a friend of mine about the awesomeness that is the Fembots, when an eavesdropper in line behind me interjected - “those guys effin rock!” Looks like word is getting around.
		I can say without hesitation that you're my favourite band...insanely beautiful, original music that has had a serious influence on me. But I'd like to add that you also have a great ability to freak the shit out of people.
