I am getting the same results on all my machines that I'm trying it on now.  I've tried to wipe out /var/lib/apt/lists/ like some lists had suggested, I've tried normal updates, I've tried cleaning and -fix-missing to no avail.  Been trying for the last 24 hours.

If you have medibuntu.org in your sources list, it appears to have 
disappeared. I wasn't sure it was a problem here at work, or a generic 
problem, so I was going to wait until I got home. I do know it was 
working last night (US-EDT), as the same updates worked at home.
