Why the mirror lies: Individuals with body dysmorphic disorder see their own faces differently
Everyone checks themselves in the mirror now and then, but that experience can be horrifying for individuals suffering from body dysmorphic disorder, or BDD, a psychiatric condition that causes them to believe, wrongly, that they appear disfigured and ugly. These people tend to fixate on minute details – every tiny blemish looms huge – rather than viewing their face as a whole.

Scientists create new way to screen libraries of 10 million or more compounds
The search for new drug compounds is probably worse than looking for a needle in a haystack because scientists are limited in the size of the haystacks they can rummage through -time and money make it virtually impossible to screen or search through super-large libraries of potential compounds. This is a serious problem, because there is enormous interest in identifying synthetic molecules that bind to proteins for applications in drug discovery, biology, and proteomics, and larger libraries should mean higher odds of success.

A new study weighs in on the controversy over sex education, finding that an abstinence-only intervention for pre-teens was more successful in delaying the onset of sexual activity than a health-promotion control intervention. After two years, one-third of the abstinence-only group reported having sex, compared to one-half of the control group.

Warner Bros. Decides to Convert Clash of the Titans to 3-D
Apparently, Warner Bros. is convinced that so many Americans are stupid enough to pay $15 to see Clash of the Titans that it warrants pushing its release back a week and spending the extra money it costs to convert the film to 3-D. Because really, if we learned anything from the unprecedented success of Avatar , it’s that no one wants to see Sam Worthington in just two stupid dimensions.

Four Tet’s Kieran Hebden on Scoring James Bond, Making Music From Heartbeats
London producer Kieran Hebden has made some of the most accessible electronica this side of Moby. As Four Tet, he has softened the instrumental dance music on records like 2003’s Rounds and 2005’s Everything Ecstatic with organic textures and samples.
