3 Things You Should Know About Small Business: August 3
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- What's happening in small business today?
1. Is the CARD Act hurting small businesses trying to get credit? It's no secret that small business lending has clammed up since the recession started for a number of reasons, including weaker demand, a weak real estate market making it tough to get home equity lines of credit and tougher overall lending standards. But another factor may be the CARD Act, which went into effect in 2010, offering new protections for consumer credit cards (but not business cards), making many business owners shift their credit to personal cards.
While it's still unclear how much the CARD Act affected small business borrowing, it could be substantive, says Bloomberg BusinessWeek contributor Scott Shane.
Business cards are an important source of credit for small business owners. A National Federation of Independent Business report cited in the article found that small business owners who use personal credit cards for business increased from 42% in 2009 to 49% in 2011, while those who used business credit cards declined from 64% to 59%.
"Swapping cards might not seem significant, but it does illustrate how crucial access to credit is and how important it is to identify and address the factors constraining it," Shane writes.
2. Could you use an incubator? New business owners often try to go it alone when just starting out, without mentors and without outside help, but for some businesses an incubator could be a good way to kick start operations, says Access to Capital, a small business financing resource by Dun & Bradstreet Credibility.
Incubators can provide a small company space and equipment rentals for a low price as well as professional business advice and assistance. Some will even invest money into select startups, the article says. Across the country, there are about 1,200 incubators.
Different incubators focus on different industries and most will require the business owner to send in an application and be interviewed. Do your homework and determine which incubator might best suit your needs.

Good Advice from Productivity Expert…Jerry Seinfeld?
Just about everybody struggles with making the most of the mere 24 hours available in each day. Staying motivated and on track can be difficult, especially for long-term goals that aren't an immediate priority, yet require recurring action (e.g., sorting and filing documents, learning a language, or exercising) to be reached.
Blogger and software developer Brian Isaac once received a valuable productivity tip from none other than Jerry Seinfeld. Several years ago, when Seinfeld was just a fledgling show on NBC, its namesake still worked the comedy club circuit several weeks out of the year. An aspiring stand-up comic, Isaac was in a club where Seinfeld was headlining and spoke with him briefly before the performance. He asked Seinfeld's advice for a young comic wanting to improve his craft.
Perhaps not surprisingly, his advice was to write new jokes every day. But it was the "how" rather than the "what" of Seinfeld's advice that stuck with Isaac:
He (Seinfeld) told me to get a big wall calendar that has a whole year on one page and hang it on a prominent wall. The next step was to get a big red magic marker.
He said for each day that I do my task of writing, I get to put a big red X over that day. "After a few days you'll have a chain. Just keep at it and the chain will grow longer every day. You'll like seeing that chain, especially when you get a few weeks under your belt. Your only job next is to not break the chain."
"Don't break the chain," he said again for emphasis.
Business owners don't have the "luxury" of a boss cracking the whip to keep them on-task. They have to stay motivated to do the things that must be done for their business to succeed, even if they're not seeing immediate benefits. Whether it's making cold calls, staying organized, networking, or even starting the day with exercise to keep energy levels up, the best way to ensure success is to keep at it every day.
A wall calendar will suffice, but tracking your progress in an Outlook or Google calendar allows you to update your progress from anywhere. Set up your calendar and start putting an X (or some other word or symbol that stands out from the rest of events and schedules on your calendar) on each day that you complete your necessary tasks.
Then, don't break the chain.
For CMIT Marathon customers, this process happens automatically along with many other operations that keep your computers in tip-top shape, so only use this method on computers that aren't managed by Marathon, such as your home PC.
To run "Disk Cleanup," right-click on your computer's primary disk and select "Properties."
To the lower right of the image depicting your hard drive's capacity, you'll find a button marked "Disk Cleanup."
Click on it, and wait a few moments as Windows creates a list of unnecessary files. When it's finished, you'll see a window that looks like this:
Use the check boxes to tell Windows which files you wish to delete. In this example, we will free up almost 5GB by deleting old error reports. Click "OK," and you'll get an "Are You Sure?" prompt. Click "Yes," and let Disk Cleanup work its magic.

UNION — Two paintings donated by an area artist will be raffled off to raise funds for the Union County Cancer Services.
In a statement released Friday, the UCCS announced that Laura Kyle Hull from Pacolet has donated two original watercolor paintings that will be raffled off at 10 a.m. Thursday, December 27 at the Union County Museum. The raffle is to raise funds for the UCCS which provides services to cancer patients in Union County.
Hull's donation is in honor of two friends who are both battling cancer. The paintings, "SC Wren Wired In" and "Sea and Grass," are both 16 x 20, matted and framed, and valued at $500 each.
SC Wren Wired In is on display at the Union County Arts Council and Sea and Grass is on display at the museum, both on Main Street in Union.
Tickets for the raffle may be purchased at these locations for a $5 tax-deductible donation.
Hull, a former Wallace Thomson Hospital respiratory therapist, is a member of the Artists' Guild of Spartanburg and South Carolina Watermedia Society, as well as other local and regional organizations. She began pursuing her interest in art after retiring in 2003 and in 2005 established Artistic Nature through which her paintings, prints and other items are distributed. Hull's watercolor paintings incorporate natural scenes including flowers, insects, butterflies, birds, squirrels, raccoons and polar bears.
The Union County Cancer Service has operated in Union County for nearly 50 years serving residents being treated for cancer. It does not have any overhead expenses as all office space, equipment and other materials are donated and volunteers maintain its office. The only monies ever spent for items other than the patients' needs are for office supplies. The Cancer Services is a 501(c)3 agency funded primarily by the United Way of the Piedmont and is currently assisting 100 residents of Union County, an increase of nearly 40 percent over last year.

BOKCHITO – Rock Creek is getting closer to playoff form after knocking heads with the 19-4 Coleman Wildcats in a 50-46 Mustang loss on Friday.
The Mustangs fell behind often but always found a way to make the game close. Down 12-7, a Bronson Burns three and Leo Roper's layup off of a steal tied the game before an 11-2 Coleman run.
The Wildcats took a 25-17 lead into the break, and padded it in the third to 38-27 despite good effort from Ethan Mitchell of the Mustangs. Mitchell would play hero again in the fourth, when his breakaway layup got Rock Creek within seven.
David Dill hit a jumper and Toby McIntyre got a three to rattle in, and suddenly the Mustangs only trailed by four. But Coleman scored five straight and took a nine point lead into the final minute.
Rock Creek got a couple of late threes, including one by Burns which made the score 49-46 with six seconds left. Lucas Hamilton went 1-for-2 at the line after an intentional foul against the Mustangs to ice the game.
"Rob (Frederick) did a good job, they execute and play hard," said Coleman Coach Bobby Weil. "Our guards have to be able to handle the basketball a little better, but I thought we played well in the first half."
The Wildcats will open a potentially deep playoff run by visiting Earlsboro on Saturday.
"I'm proud of the way we're coming together," said Rob Frederick, coach of the Mustangs. "We are learning to finish. We're preparing for the playoffs, and I think we'll be able to make a strong push."
Rock Creek finishes the regular season Tuesday in Caney before a re-match with county rival Achille on Friday to start the district playoffs. One hitch: The game will be held in Turner, some 60 miles west of Bokchito.
Scoring leaders (Rock Creek): Bronson Burns 12, Toby McIntyre 11, Ethan Mitchell 8, Cameron Hammond 6, Leo Roper 5, David Dill 4. Coleman: Lucas Hamilton 17, Colton Stephens 10, James Hicks 9, Hunter Evans and Jess Hicks each with six.
Rock Creek girls 40, Coleman 17
The Lady Mustangs dominated front to back and put on a defensive clinic in a Senior Night win over Coleman.
Harlie Heflin led all scorers with 14. Devyn Johnson had six, Shaina Holland five, Kaci Haislip and Macy Eiler scored four each, and Beth Burns and Angelica Marsh had two apiece.
Kami Sharp led the Lady Wildcats with 10 points.
It was an emotional night for Mustangs fans, as nine senior athletes were honored. The injured Adree Young received a starting role, took possession of the ball and received a standing ovation before leaving the game.
Other senior athletes honored in a pre-game ceremony included David Dill, Sawyer Halcomb, Devyn Johnson, Ashley Mitchell, Dylan Powell, Leo Roper, Haily Taylor, and Kasey Whittington.

Jacoby danced after every TD this season, but after one of the greatest TDs in Ravens' history, no dance.
Jacoby danced after every TD this season, but after one of the greatest TDs in Ravens' history, no dance.
I believe Denver is shell-shocked.......
I don't believe in miracles, but.....
"...How bleak was it for the Ravens? They trailed, 35-28, and they had no timeouts remaining. One minute nine seconds remained when the Ravens got the ball at their 23. Any passing play or running play that ended in the field of play would have resulted in a large chunk of time being run off the clock. At one point in the final two minutes, according to the AdvancedNFLstats.com probability graph for the game, Baltimore had only a one percent chance of winning the game..."
I love to watch too but Jacoby was as emotional as the rest of us and a deliberate dance was furthest from his mind
I like that he didn't dance. Save the dance for the championship.
Actually, I was happier that Jacoby didn't break out a dance after that incredible play. He showed true emotion as well as respect for the game.
After all, it was an incredible TEAM play. The pass needs no explanation. The OL gave Flacco time - and gave Jacoby time to get behind the CB. The other WRs and TEs also ran realistic patterns that occupied the defenders (in fact, Rahim Moore seemed to react to a Pitta move which caused him to stop his momentum.)
blowing kisses to the fans was far better than any dance...it was a perfect move...
He turned around and looked for a flag because he too was shocked the ball wasn't intercepted.
Slightly OT:
Well...it wasn't exactly on a par with Brian Billick blowing kisses to Rodney Harrison (still THE BEST coach/player during an actual game interaction of all time), but Harbaugh using his hand to simulate talking too much to one of the Broncos players has got to go down as an instant classic!!!
guess he was shocked like the whole stadium and all of us

Dear Readers:
Welcome to the Fall 2012 issue of Early Childhood Research & Practice, the first and only open-access, peer-reviewed, multilingual internet journal in early care and education.
We are pleased to report that ECRP continues to receive more than 1.5 million user visits annually from readers in more than 100 countries, including the United States. We continue our efforts to strengthen the quality of ECRP, which now has an acceptance rate of 11%.
The journal experienced some changes during 2012. We have welcomed Kevin Dolan, Ph.D., to the editorial staff. Dr. Dolan has a background in media and communications and considerable experience with academic journals, and he is essential to our operation. We also announce the retirement of ECRP's longtime managing editor, Laurel Preece. Ms. Preece has been an insightful, thoughtful, solution-minded editor. Her eye for detail, her concern for quality, and her collegiality have served the journal well for many years. She is an invaluable colleague, and we will miss her.
Those of you who are classroom teachers, curriculum specialists, and teacher educators may be interested in our multimedia teacher resource titled Projects to Go. This 2-disc set includes the DVD "Rearview Mirror: Reflections on a Preschool Car Project" as well as a CD-ROM of selected ECRP articles (most in both English and Spanish) related to the Project Approach. See http://ecap.crc.illinois.edu/pubs.html#sale for more information.
In September 2012, ECRP uploaded Chinese translations of selected articles from the journal's Spring 2011 issue. The Chinese translations are sponsored by the Yew Chung Education Foundation. (See http://ecrp.illinois.edu/chinese/v13n1-ch.html.)
The current issue (Volume 14, Number 2) includes seven articles providing a range of perspectives on topics related to the care and education of young children and the complex challenges early childhood professionals confront. The topics addressed include:
- The development and evaluation of strategies by which child care providers can address adequate pest management in their programs
- Early childhood professionals' self-reported preferences for sources of new information and training materials and Internet resources
- The complexities of training caregivers for screening young children's mental health
- The impact of sometimes conflicting priorities of campus-based infant-toddler programs and the potential effects of those priorities on children and families
- Parental hopes for their children and awareness of children's developmental needs within a low-income population
- The variety of parental and teacher beliefs about kindergarten readiness and the preschool's role in supporting it
- Issues encountered in providing culturally relevant training for "friend and family" child care providers who serve diverse families.
We hope that you find these articles useful, and we look forward to hearing from you about ways that ECRP can be even more useful to you.
Because ECRP is freely accessible, we are unable to accept journal subscriptions or advertising. However, the cost of journal production is about $37,000 per year, and we are totally dependent of donations.
So we urge you to help ECRP as much as you can with a tax-deductible donation.
Donations to ECRP are managed by the University of Illinois Foundation (UIF). For instructions, go to http://ecrp.illinois.edu/donation.html
Thank you,

Marshall vows to mentor fellow Bears receivers
By: Larry Mayer
When the Bears traded for receiver Brandon Marshall, they got more than just a big, dynamic playmaker. They also acquired a veteran who intends to mentor his young teammates.
I guess its in me in a way, said Marshall, who was acquired in a March 13 deal with the Dolphins. It took seven years to harness it and put it in a positive direction, and Im excited about it.
This is the first year that I actually felt pressure as far as, Ive got to work because there are some young guys and Im getting older, but also Im recognizing how important it is to bring those guys along. This is a first for me, but Im embracing the opportunity.
Marshall is one of only three NFL receivers to compile at least 1,000 yards in each of the last five seasons. As Jay Cutlers primary target with the Broncos, the 6-4, 230-pounder caught 102 passes for 1,325 yards and seven touchdowns in 2007 and had 104 receptions for 1,265 yards and 6 TDs in 2008.
Asked what he can teach his fellow Bears receivers, Marshall said: Everything. Its not just on the field, its off the field because if off the field isnt right then nine times out of 10 its going to be real hard to perform on the field.
As far as on the field goes, we have some great teaching tape from my days in Denver. Were installing some of that stuff here. We get a chance to watch some of that 2007-08 tape and there are a lot of mental mistakes and a lot of situations where we missed holes just in route technique and how to work.
So were excited about the opportunity. We have a great group and I think were going to do something special.
Devin Hester is among the Bears receivers eager to learn from Marshall.
He brings a little more excitement to the receiver corps from a veteran guy that plays his tail off his whole career in the NFL and became a true No. 1 wide receivera 1,000-yard season every year, said Hester.
With the mentality that he has it helps us out a lot to see what it takes to be a true No. 1 receiver. I just try to be his little shadow right now. Whatever hes doing Im trying to do because I want to get to his level.

If you're planning on getting a four-year degree at college, a newly released study suggests you shouldn't take five or six years to get it.
An additional year or two could cost you in more ways than the extra tuition.
The University of Tennessee's Center for Business and Economic Research found that people who earned bachelor's degrees within four years saw, on average, higher wages than those who earned similar degrees within six years.
The difference between the wages of four-year and six-year graduates: about $6,000.
But it still pays to get an undergraduate degree, even if it takes six years to do it. Those who earned a bachelor's within six years made about $6,000 more than students who attended college but didn't earn a degree at all.
The study considered several reasons for the differences in salaries, including the head start that four-year graduates had in the workforce. The authors also noted that some employers may see a difference in aptitude between those who graduate on time and those who don't.
According to U.S. News and World Report, most American college students -- around 60 percent -- don't graduate on time. And an extra year of tuition alone sets them back more than $8,000 at the average public university, while private school (take a deep breath) costs an average of $42,000 per year.
While it's true that many Americans place a priority on getting a college degree, millions of future workers may not need it. A study by the Harvard Graduate School of Education estimates that only a third of new jobs created between 2008 and 2018 will require a bachelor's or higher degree.
Almost as many of those new jobs -- 30 percent -- will require an associate's degree or a "post-secondary occupational credential."
Today's registered nurses, who earn a median salary of over $65,000, may have an associate's degree. Same requirement for dental hygienists, who can earn more than that.

A family-friendly atmosphere at the Airport Golf Fun Center lets guests of any age unwind with games of mini-golf or hone their skills with long shots on the driving range. Putt past obstacles, undulating turf, and ball-swiping seagulls on the 18-hole mini-golf course. Beautifully landscaped, the course winds past a plethora of ponds, water falls, and baffling water rises. Golfers can also refine regular-sized skills on a short game practice area outfitted with a putting green, sand trap, and purse-lipped fans. The 45-stall range lets clubsmen unsheathe drivers for full-fledged shots from tee-boxes dressed with real grass or artificial turf.
Golfers across the handicap spectrum practice bogey-thwarting skills at Natick Golf Learning Center, where PGA- and LPGA-certified pros preside over a multifaceted outdoor practice facility. The center's outdoor driving range offers 75 artificial and natural-grass hitting mats; two chipping greens, a putting green, and a practice bunker let players practice their finesse shots. During daily lessons, the pros enlist video analysis and other teaching aids to help pupils tackle new skills or correct recent on-course weaknesses.
With five distinct courses etched into the New England countryside, Sterling Golf Management promotes pin-hunting recreation for Boston-area golfers of all abilities. The longest and most difficult of the four, The Shattuck Golf Club's 18-hole course kicks off with a 409-yard par 4 where players hack their way toward a green that is visually wreathed by the rising red rocks of Mount Monadnock, setting the tone for a scenic, 6,764-yard round. Groves of trees ensconce the fairways and barter over carbon dioxide at Norwood Country Club's recently renovated course, a relatively flat layout characterized by smallish greens and flanked by a lighted driving range. Designed in 1921 in the Donald Ross tradition is Maynard Golf Course, a picturesque par 70, 9-hole course with a full-service clubhouse. The same sylvan makeup returns at Newton Commonwealth's course, where lush tree lines cast shadows over a creek as it snakes across the fairways of seven holes. Rounding out the grassy quartet, Chelmsford's nine-hole course takes golfers careening across 2,467 yards of narrow fairways, placing straight drives or skilled golf ball pilots at a premium.
Rolling hills, towering pine trees, and burbling streams convene on Shaker Farms Country Club's 18-hole course as it gently rises and falls across 6,285 yards of bucolic terrain. Golfers must be mindful of a tranquil creek that runs in a wishbone pattern throughout the course, as its rippling waters—which come into play on eight holes—are often camouflaged by grassy banks and waterfowl that snack on errant golf balls. The distinct farmland layout conjures a sense of rustic antiquity, a characteristic furthered by the presence of a dilapidated farmhouse on the par 4 second hole. Clubbers hoping to gain control over runaway swings can warm up at the driving range or tap their spikes together three times to summon seasoned ace Keith Ornelas, who roams the club's verdant hillsides on a never-ending quest to vanquish mulligans once and for all. Alongside its verdant golf course, Shaker Farms boasts tennis courts and a versatile array of dining options.

White pines, hemlocks, and white birches flourish on the 140 acres of New England countryside that golf-course architect Ted Manning—a Robert Trent Jones protégé—and US Women's Open champ Mary Mills sculpted into a championship golf course for Townsend Ridge Country Club. Golfers can leave breadcrumb trails to find their way back as they swing through the forested links, hitting over the stream that splits the 3rd hole's ryegrass fairway before heading uphill on a 474-yard, par-5 12th hole. The course's signature par-4 14th hole demands a cautious approach, as balls that land past the pin find themselves rolling down a steep slope. At last, with the clubhouse in sight, golfers finish up at the 18th by launching their balls over a pond to land on a double green shared with hole 9.
Although it's a daily-fee course, Townsend Ridge creates the feel of a private club with a driving range hemmed by 35 hitting stations and a pro shop that hosts two swing simulators. These let players keep in shape during wintery months by tackling digital recreations of the links at Pebble Beach and St. Andrews. For more structured practice sessions, golfers can join lessons and get professional answers as to what's the best grip for hitting out of the sand and what kind of bird lays golf balls.

The famous fairways at Doral, Sawgrass, and Pebble Beach that make avid golfers salivate are assembled in one place at Lancaster Golf Center, though with one key difference—they're in miniature. The lilliputian course eschews the windmills and lava pits of normal mini-golf links for smaller replicas of full-sized bunkers and water hazards. Nearby, the center's driving range challenges golfers to take more forceful swings. Its 78 hitting stations unfurl both natural grass and artificial turf, and there is cover and heating for winter practice as well as illumination for night or when everyone is wearing really dark sunglasses. The practice area also boasts an 8,500-square-foot putting green, a chipping area, and a sand bunker.
Golfers start keeping score at Lancaster's nine-hole executive course, especially at its fifth, sixth, and seventh holes, which compose an Amen Corner that claims 526 of the course's 1,057 yards. Before trekking across the fairways, players can hone their form during lessons with teaching professionals Dennis Lanciani and Jim Cronin, who boast more than 43 years of combined experience teaching golfers not to illegally attach wings to their balls. As the instructors offer advice, students' children can entertain themselves at nine batting cages or with bank-shot basketball. Before heading home, visitors of all ages can enjoy a frozen treat from the center's stock of Richardson's Ice Cream.

Neighborhood profile: Median market value down 49.7 percent from 2006 peak in Boynton Beach's Boynton Isles
Wednesday, April 20th, 2011With just 50 houses, all of which have direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway, Boynton Isles is the subject of this week's installment of our real estate profile series. The neighborhood is situated between South Federal Highway and the Intracoastal in Boynton Beach.
None of the homes in Boynton Isles are currently in foreclosure, according to data from financial and property information company CoreLogic. The interactive map below highlights 2010 market values as set by the Palm Beach County Property Appraiser. Dark green represents lower values, bright red reflects higher amounts. Click on any house for more information about it.
Forty-two of the homes in Boynton Isles, 84 percent, have a homestead exemption, meaning they are the primary residence of a permanent Florida resident, compared to the 77 percent countywide rate for all single-family homes.
The chart below shows the lowest, highest and median market value in the neighborhood during the past five years. Remember that while real-world sale prices tend to be higher than the property appraiser's market value estimates, they're important both as the starting point from which property taxes are determined and as an indicator of a neighborhood's general price trend over time.
The median market value in Boynton Isles peaked at $755,159 in 2006, and fell 49.7 percent to $380,104 in 2010.
The median price of qualified or arm's length transactions in the neighborhood peaked at $925,000 in 2007. Then again, $925,000 was also both the lowest and highest sale price in the neighborhood that year, as there was only one sale. There were two sales in 2010, one for $405,000 and the other for $537,500. Individual prices peaked with a sale for $1,700,000 in July 2005.
Don't forget to look for The Palm Beach Post's neighborhood of the week feature in the Accent section of your print edition every Saturday. And be sure to check out the Boynton Isles page on The Post's real estate website, Florida Home, where you can find homes currently for sale or rent, sales data updated every weekday and information on local schools.

I'm 24 and have spent the last 11 years of my life living with schizophrenia. After trying 20 different medications (including severe side effects, such as a 150 lb. weight gain) and years in psychotherapy, I still wasn't progressing.
I learned that people with schizophrenia in less developed societies (tribes in africa, etc), people with schizophrenia fare significantly better than they do in the developed world. This completely baffled me because people in the developed world are seeing the best medical doctors in the world so I assumed they would be much better off. I decided that I needed to look into why tribal people with schizophrenia in africa would fare so much better than people like me in the USA.
There are of course many differences between american society and a tribe in Africa, so I figured there wouldn't be an easy answer to my inquiry. I've always had an interest in healthy eating so I decided to look into the diet of hunter-gatherers and that is how I found out about the paleo diet and the WAPF.
I wouldn't say I had a miraculous change, but the longer I stay with the paleo diet, the better my mental health becomes. I don't think the paleo diet is a "cure" for severe mental illness, but I feel like it can be a substantial augmentation to medication and psychotherapy.
Most people with severe mental illness eat horrible diets. It kind of bothers me that doctors don't think that maybe the fact that this person with severe depression is eating nothing but breakfast cereal is why he isn't responding to treatment. The more we learn about the body and the mind, the more we realize how interconnected they are. How could eating like crap NOT cause people with mental illness to deteriorate? I hold no illusions that the paleo diet can help everyone with severe mental illness, but I can only see it helping.
Has fixing your body through the paleo diet help fix your mind? I would love to read your stories! Thank you.

Comments about Womens Pearl Izumi Syncro Fuel Trail II Trail Running Shoe: This shoe fits like a glove! It's the first pair of Pearls I've ever tried. This shoe provides enough stability and traction without being too stiff or bulky. This shoe does just fine when not trail running (pavement, treadmill), though I prefer it for that. I am in between sizes (1/2 size up is a little big, but not doing so is a little small), but went with the larger size. I put my inserts in on top of the ones that came in the shoe... fits better. And, I know when it snows, I will be able to wear warm socks without a problem. I LOVE this shoe!

Murray Hill–A Small Midtown East Manhattan Neighborhood
photography by Zruda Murray Hill is a small neighborhood, quiet and elegant, with condos, co-ops, town homes and brownstones. Its unofficial borders are between Fifth Avenue and Franklin D. Roosevelt Drive and 34th and 40th Streets. Unlike some of its more active midtown neighbors, Murray Hill is slower-paced and attracts those who want close access to busy Midtown but prefer to live on quieter streets. Residents have to venture out for large-scale... Read More

Stars database download?
I found "NStars", it sounds like they have what I'm after, but the site is not online as is currently undergoing major redesign. Is there any other place? I'm looking for coordinates data, size, spectrum, luminosity and such. Maybe some free Astronomy program comes with such database I could open outside the program and extract the data in .txt file? |
Nov19-12, 03:12 PM | #2 |
Try Vizier.

The Vizier database is incomplete on many counts. Here is a catalog you may find more helpful - http://www.atnf.csiro.au/research/pulsar/psrcat/

Now, this is completely new to me, I need the data to incorporate it in my software, but I am not astronomer so I'm struggling to interpret it. Could you tell me if the light arriving from the stars in those databases is given as monochromatic, that is as being a single wavelength, perhaps some average, or is it more complicated than that? |
Nov20-12, 07:03 PM | #7 |
Nov20-12, 08:51 PM | #8 |
Spectral data is usually given in a narrow band pass [a restricted range of wavelengths]. There may be some composite results, like bolometric magnitude. The band pass data will give intensity at the wavelength measured and probably the cutoffs used.

Can someone explain a little bit more about column 9: - V magnitude is a measure of brightness at wavelengths centered near 5500 Angstroms, similar to the the color of light to which human eyes are most sensitive; larger positive numbers are fainter stars, where each factor of 2.5 in brightness is one magnitude; under good sky conditions, the eye is sensitive to magnitudes as faint as V = 6 a.) Would this be "white light" where larger number represent darker shade of gray? b.) V=7 is "black" to human eye, but with longer exposure appears as lighter shade of gray? |

There's also the Gliese Catalog of Nearby Stars, containing nearly 4000 stars. You can download it in txt form.

More on the project...
Hello Mr. Gaiman,
I wanted to thank you for the #KeepMoving project you shared with all of us. I was skeptical at first (I am with anything that smells vaguely commercialized) but was so pleasantly surprised by the responses, and by my own responses.
Nobody has ever asked me those questions before, and I really enjoyed creating answers for them, and reading others responses. Seeing how others interpreted them was beautiful. I don't personally know anyone who'd bother to ask me those questions, or who'd care to know the answers. I'm glad you did. It made me think, and made me feel less lonely. Thank you. I think I'd like to repost the questions and my responses somewhere, and maybe make something out of them. I've been inspired!
I do not mind at all — I'd be thrilled.
I originally wrote 24 questions, in case one of the questions wasn't really working, and was persuaded to take it down to 12, so I will see if I can find the original 24 and put them all up for people to use as yoghurt-starters, for stories or memories or what-they-will.
