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…

Why Globular Clusters are the Smallest
"From the intrinsic evidence of his creation, the Great Architect of the Universe now begins to appear as a pure mathematician." -Sir James Jeans Last time we met, I posed a mystery to you: why are globular clusters the smallest in the Universe? And what's more than that, we never find them in isolation! We always find them bound to galaxies (or, if not bound to a galaxy, then within a cluster…
Black Hole Q&A
"Black holes are where God divided by zero." -Stephen Wright Yesterday, I told you about all the evidence for the Black Hole at the center of our galaxy. In particular, we see multiple stars orbiting a single point that emits no light of any type at all. And, perhaps unsurprisingly, the comments became very active. So let's take a look at some of what was said, and let's see what we can further…
The Physics of the Warped Wall (Synopsis)
“Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life.
