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…

Meet the New New Math, Same As the Old New Math? What We Can Learn from Finland

Most Massive Collection Of Giant Stars Ever Revealed By Hubble (Synopsis)
"The night has a thousand eyes, and the day but one; Yet the light of the bright world dies with the dying sun." -Francis William Bourdillon When we look for the brightest, bluest, most massive individual stars, we're restricted to looking nearby, since it's impossible to resolve individual stars at distances that extend much beyond our own galaxy. So how surprising is it, then, when the most…

Life cycle / Cycle of life
Since we last checked in, all 5 of our caterpillars made their transformation to chrysalis! Unfortunately, one of the Georges settled in too close to the side of the container. As he began to pupate, the forming chrysalis touched the plastic side, which must have been enough to cause a small tear in its surface. A few drops of liquid ran down the side, and the little guy stopped pupating. As…
