Half of all women were estimated to have no G-spot. Infection by Mycoplasma genitalium bacteria was linked to increased HIV shedding from the cervix, and the tip of the nose was determined to be the place where harsh and unpleasant smells are sensed.

Researchers established that cocaine-addicted rats both love and hate the drug, an Australian study reported that college students make up 40 percent of Melbourne's prostitutes, and astrophysicists using the Spitzer Space Telescope discovered organic gases and water vapor floating around a fecund young star. Scientists announced that it took a long time to tame the wild ass.

Australian researchers said that high ocean acidity from rising sea temperatures was causing the ears of baby damselfish to develop improperly; without ears, baby damselfish cannot hear (and thus locate) the reefs where they are meant to grow up. Russian officials discovered a boy
who was raised among birds and speaks only in chirps. King penguins were threatened by global warming, blue penguins were threatened by cars, Florida vultures were attacking cars, and male starlings exposed to estrogen-mimicking pollutants were observed to sing long, complex songs that make them attractive to females.

A sex hormone was found in the drinking water of San Francisco, and anti-anxiety medications were found in the drinking water of Southern California. Prozac was revealed not to work, researchers demonstrated that placebos are more effective if the drugs for which they stand in are said to be more expensive, and a Scottish study determined that roughly half of a person's happiness is due to genetics. Physicists stored and retrieved a nothing.

An American microbiologist revealed that snowflakes often form around atmospheric bacteria and that France and Montana have the most heavily bacteria-laden snow. Astronomers found that soot floating in interstellar space -- rather than dark energy -- may be responsible for the dimness of faraway galaxies, and suggested that large stars composed of dark matter populated the early universe.
