Program Announcement: I'm Moving
September 1, 2011
I've dropped some hints in the past that my relationship with ScienceBlogs would be...altered. Well, I've decided to leave. Mostly, it had to do with the issue of pseudonymity, although I'm very excited to hang out my own shingle once again. I don't want to rehash the issue of pseudonymity,…
Note to Unions: This Is Not How You Build a Coalition
September 1, 2011
The old saw that 'we hang together or we get hung separately' is a perfect description of how the left has disintegrated into irrelevance. Too often, groups will focus on modest gains for their own narrow constituency, while selling out other allies. Over the long term, each component of the…

If I had a Telescope this Summer...
"A birthday is just the first day of another 365-day journey around the sun. Enjoy the trip." -Author Unknown Each of us has a birthday; mine is tomorrow, August 3rd. And while we're mucking around here on the ground, the Earth relentlessly orbits the Sun. And while a sidereal year, or the time it takes the Earth to return to its same position in space, is not quite identical to a calendar year…
Weekend Diversion: Making it Count!
"The time will not be taken from the sum of your life. Instead of shortening it, it will indefinitely lengthen it and make you truly immortal. Nevermore will time seem short or long, and cares will never again fall heavily on you, but gently and kindly as gifts from heaven." -John Muir, on Glacier National Park It's always hard to tear yourself away from your day-to-day life, from the things you…
The Sombrero is Two Galaxies in the Same Spot in the Universe
The Sombrero Galaxy's Split Personality: The infrared vision of NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope has revealed that the Sombrero galaxy -- named after its appearance in visible light to a wide-brimmed hat -- is in fact two galaxies in one. It is a large elliptical galaxy (blue-green) with a thin disk galaxy (partly seen in red) embedded within. Previous visible-light images led astronomers to…
