Chemicals banish bad hair days

Chemicals that banish bad hair days garnered the most press coverage from Sunday's American Chemical Society's conference in Philadelphia. While "one of the world's biggest gathering of scientists" debated air pollutants and blood thinners, the world's newspapers carried pictures of tousle-haired models pouting at the state of their locks.

But elsewhere there was a bit of scientific coverage from the conference (17-21 August 2008).

I especially liked this headline: "Forget the Olympics, Watch Live Footage from a Massive Chemistry Conference."
