Science talk is here one more time. Gather around and take a well deserved hiatus from all the politics of the day. New discoveries, new takes on old knowledge, and other bits of news are all available for the perusing in today's information world. Over the fold are selections from the past week from a few of the many excellent science news sites around the world. Today's tidbits include tiny satellites for big science, sophisticated fibers that interact with their environment, Gulf spill altering food web, nature's insect repellents, and global warming slowing coral growth in the Red Sea. Pull up a chair. There is plenty of room for everyone. Get comfy and settle in for one more session of Dr. Possum's science education and entertainment.
