More great news from the science front

1) Attention Corporate Workers: are you fed up with employers who crack the whip, and complain when they find you napping in your cubicle? Well then send this new scientific data to your boss, whose tension level no doubt makes your workplace an unhappy and possibly hostile one:

Who knows? Maybe your nineteenth century-style Boss needs a nap himself.

2) Here's a new science story for automobile drivers, which adds new meaning to the standard "driver's ed" admonition... Keep your eyes on the road:

• Car Steered With Eyes, Computer Scientists Demonstrate

Just a helpful hint from yer Old Pal Rudi: please don't buy into this technology until you've actually had the brain implant.

• Hubble Space Telescope's 20th Anniversary

In our view, there's no machine earth society has ever made which so obviously and beautifully merits a great 20th Anniversary birth-day party. Check out the Hubble photo gallery below:
