I would like to register my distaste for seeing advertisements within research publications aka journal articles. Science/AAAS (Sciencemag.org) is one major offender noticed so far.
I haven't read the AAAS's Science magazine in decades, but my father subscribed to the dead-tree version when I was a kid, and it's had ads as long as I can remember. Most of them were for university jobs, and I can't remember whether other ads were in Science or in Chemical&Engineering News (an industry rag where ads wouldn't have been surprising; I suspect most of the ads for laboratory glassware were in C&EN.)
