At last we know why female argonaut octopuses have a shell, and what use they put them to. Previously, scientists thought the females used them to keep their delicate eggs safe. Now, by capturing argonauts and releasing them at different depths, Julian Finn and Mark Norman of Museum Victoria in Melbourne, Australia, have established that they use the shells to capture and compress air for buoyancy control. In this picture the octopus has headed to the surface to scoop in some air with her shell.

Seattle's Best Coffee Stirs Up Heated Opinions
Seattle's Best Coffee revealed a redesigned logo this week. Unfortunately, its ambiguous look brings to mind a lot more than just a cup of joe.
The simplified design seems rather generic, say some of the kinder observers. Other pundits are calling it a bowl of cereal filled with tears. But the harshest critics say the new look seems more appropriate for a blood donation center.
"Seattle's Best Blood Bank," wrote one snarky blog commentator. "High school art students could do a better job at designing a logo," proclaimed another. Ouch.
A poll from The Seattle Times revealed a whopping 68 percent of over 2,000 respondents thought Seattle's Best Coffee should "try again."
In response, Seattle's Best, which Starbucks acquired in 2003, says it didn't intend for its new look to be fancy or visually arresting. According to a spokesperson for the company, the logo "has to live in all kinds of environments." The understated look may be intentionally generic, as she say
