Well, if you can't get your science fix from the Strib try the following:

http://www.eurekalert.org/news.pub.brief.html

Much of it is medical, but they have articles on the latest cosmological
find, ways of powering transportation systems, warnings of global warming
effects, etc.

I hadn't heard about the demise of the Strib science page but I haven't
depended on it much recently anyway.  Professor Rudnick is right in seeing
this as a tragedy since it was geared to kids and getting them interested
in science.  We are already falling behind the rest of the world on this
aspect of our education systems.
