BP’s Cap Has Stopped the Oil Leak—for Now

Do you hear that? That's the sound of oil not gushing uncontrollably into the Gulf of Mexico from BP's leak, for the first time in nearly three months. BP is still running tests on the new cap the company installed this week, but at least for now there's some for slight optimism. The flow stopped yesterday afternoon, and BP video feed of its leak site showed quiet containment.
