Science Roundup (and yes, more space!)

Submitted by jordan on 13 May 2009 - 6:03pm

This just in from the outer darkness - The final image from the Hubble Wide Field Planetary Camera 2. The camera is being replaced by Wide Field Planetary Camera 3 (duh!).

From the "gee, we had to spend money to find that out" department, Terrorist Attacks Provoke Surge In Alcohol And Drug Use. Wow, really - humans drown their sorrows and fears with mind altering substances? Thanks for the scoop, Louis Pasteur.

Did the swine flu escape from a lab? This sounds less like science, and more like an attempt to blame somebody (anybody!) for our fear (that is, as soon as we recover from the hangover from the previous story).

And finally, from the biological front - Smelly refrigerator strikes down AT(and)T office - way to go, Ma Bell.
