Carpe Noctem - Seize the Night!
Van Gogh's "Starry Night"
Hello to Anthony from Manchester, England! He is doing what most parents do just trying to stay one step ahead of the kid! And hello to Anthony's kids!
And happy birthday to my sister Mandy back home in Texas!
Special Viewing Project!Globe at Night needs your help measuring and recording the amount of light pollution
ArtVan Gogh's "The White House at Night"
Munch's "Girls on a Pier"
Van Gogh's "Moon rise"
Donald Olson Marilynn Olson, his wife, and Russell Doescher Texas State University, San Marcos. Astronomer Russell Doescher confirmed that the star in "White House at Night" is actually Venus, just like in "Starry Night" and the placement of the moon. In Starry night Van Gogh actually painted the moon in the proper gibbous phase then changed it to a more romantic crescent
The Moon-
Tonight the moon is in it's last quarter phase and shrinking daily. Which is good for all of the Messier hunters this weekend!
Grimaldi a tiny spot, sometime mistaken for a tiny sea on the western limb of the moon.

There was an interesting computer enhanced image of Buzz Aldrin on the Moon, I ran across it on the Bad Astronomer's Blog It has been cleaned up...a bit too much! Also thanks to Tom's Astronomy Blog I found out that the IAU has provisionally approved of naming 7 of the moon's craters after the astronauts who perished in the Columbia tragedy. Once all is said and done I will find craters; Husband, McCool, Chawla, L. Clark, M. Anderson, D. Brown, Ramon for you.
Tools/GadgetsWhat do you keep in your telescope kit? Do you have too much, too little? What is your favorite tool?
Alice's telescope box
Globular - Globular clusters are gravitationally bound concentrations of approximately ten thousand to one million stars. They populate the halo or bulge of the Milky Way and are believed to be very old and formed from an earlier generation of stars. Hayden Planetarium has a great simulation on the life of a globular cluster
Open cluster - Open (or galactic) clusters are physically related groups of stars held together by mutual gravitational attraction. They are believed to originate from large cosmic gas/dust clouds in the Milky Way, we can observe the formation of new young open star clusters. You can easily see this nebulosity in the Pleiades.
There are two types of descriptors you will see with open star clusters. There is the Shapley
index (Harlow Shapley)
The more detailed and specific Trumpler index/rating which is broken into 3 parts + optional nebulosity note.
The first part is a Roman numeral that denotes concentrationI - Detached; strong concentration toward center
II - Detached; weak concentration toward center
III - Detached; no concentration toward center
IV - Not well detached from surrounding star field
The second part is a Arabic number to show the range in brightness1 - Small range in brightness
2 - Moderate range in brightness
3 - Large range in brightness
Thirdly a letter to represent the richness of the clusterp - Poor: Less than 50 stars
m - Moderately rich: 50 to 100 stars
r - Rich: More than 100 stars
If there is an nebulosity in and around the cluster there will be an "n" attached to the end. I give you both since you will find both used in the different resource on the internet or on star charts.
Binocular/Telescope viewing
Not to ignore the far N. Hemisphere try
Coma Berenices, Berenice's hair - One of the last of the ancient constellations. Queen Berenice sacrificed her beautiful hair to the goddess Aphrodite in order to assure the safe return of her husband from battle. Upon his return the king demanded to be shown her hair. In order to save his own life(for the hair had been stolen) the temple priest related how Aphrodite was so moved by the sacrifice removed the hair and placed it into the skies as a constellation. Coma Berenices is a small, faint constellation that can be found immediately to the east of Leo.
There are so many great space and astronomy news sites out there I won't try and duplicate them all, I'll just report things that really strike my fancy or that I think you might be interested in. Here is a list of some of the sites I visit daily:

Carpe Noctem - Seize the Night!
Simon Vouet, The Muses Urania and Calliope, c. 1634
Urania (heavenly) is the muse of astronomy and astrology.
Calliope (beautiful-voiced) is the muse of epic poetry.
The Star-Splitter by Robert Frost You know Orion always comes up sideways. Throwing a leg up over our fence of mountains, And rising on his hands, he looks in on me Busy outdoors by lantern-light with something I should have done by daylight, and indeed, After the ground is frozen, I should have done Before it froze, and a gust flings a handful Of waste leaves at my smoky lantern chimney To make fun of my way of doing things, Or else fun of Orion's having caught me. Has a man, I should like to ask, no rights These forces are obliged to pay respect to?" So Brad McLaughlin mingled reckless talk Of heavenly stars with hugger-mugger farming, Till having failed at hugger-mugger farming, He burned his house down for the fire insurance And spent the proceeds on a telescope To satisfy a life-long curiosity About our place among the infinities. --first stanza
I know it is a little late, but happy Pi day. March 14th at 1:59 UTC can be fudged into 3.14159. In our department we celebrate the notorious number 3.14.59 with Pie of course, any excuse for a party!
To make thing even better it was Albert Einstein's birthday as well.
Another anniversary to celebrate is On this day in 1926, Robert Goddard launched the first liquid-fuel rocket.
Catalogues -
Volans, the Flying FishOriginally named Piscis Volans, this constellation was named by Johann Bayer. It is located where all good fish should be, below a boat. In the southern sky Volans is southwest of Carina, the keel, and east of the Large Magellanic Cloud. Johannes Kepler called this set of stars Passer, the Sparrow.
Camelopardalis(ka-MEL-oh-PAR-duh-lis), the Giraffe can be found between Perseus, Auriga and Ursa Minor. This constellation was first observed to look like a camel but name was eventually changed to camelopardalis, which is Latin for giraffe. In the winter months the giraffe appears upside down. Only during the summer months does it appear right side up.
The Moon -
Mare Frigoris (Sea of Cold) slices across the northern cap of the moon and at it's western end
seems to dump into Sinus Roris.
Sinus Roris (Bay of Dew)leads into the great Oceanus Procellarum (Ocean of Storms). This ocean of regolith sweeps down the western side of the moon.
Last week we looked at the craters Copernicus and Kepler, this week our lunar crater is in the great ocean
further north, but just as bright as Kepler. Crater Aristarcus
We are actually looking at a complex of Aristarcus a Greek grammarian noted for is commentary on the Iliad and the Odyssey and just a little bit SW Herodotus named after the greek "Father of History". Squiggled above and between them is Valles Schoteri. To see Herodotus or Schoteri will take a telescope. At the southern edge it finally meets up with Mare Humorum (Sea of Moisture) and Mare Congnitum (The Sea that has become known)
Naked eye viewing-The splendid open cluster IC 2602 is still known under the common name "Southern Pleiades." An open cluster of more than 50 stars in the constellation Carina, centered on the blue-white star Theta Carinae and can be seen with the naked eye. (use the chart below)

Carpe Noctem - Seize the Night!
Welcome to Brian from Minnesota, Dave from Alabama and Pat from Montreal and thank you for the email.
Hello to Bill from Missouri who sent me a very nice note and also hello to his son who will be starting his Astronomy Merit badge soon! Remember, if it is a nice night out then you have an excuse to go outside and stay up late...as long an you are learning those constellations....and your homework is done!
Tips and Tricks - Time!
"Tiiiiiiime is not on my side...no siree!"
Local Apparent Time (LAT), also called apparent solar time or sundial time. Noon was what most people still think is noon: when the Sun crosses the meridian or the highest point in its path.
Your Local Mean Time (LMT) Astronomers created an imaginary, "averaged" Sun that travels along the celestial equator. Differs from your standard civil (clock) time by many minutes. The correction depends on how far you live east or west from the center of your time zone.
Standard time. Time zones are standardized on certain longitudes: 75 degrees W for Eastern Standard Time, 90 degrees for Central, 105 degrees for Mountain, and 120 degrees for Pacific. For every degree you are east of your time zone's standard longitude, add four minutes to standard time to get LMT. For each degree you are west, subtract four minutes. The number of minutes the real Sun lags behind or runs ahead of the mean Sun was named the equation of time.
Summer-time To obtain daylight saving time ("summer time"), subtract one hour from standard time.
Universal Time (UT). Standard time (and its daylight-saving variant) serves fine within a given time zone. But when a time applies worldwide, such as in an astronomical almanac, you need one reference point. Logically enough, the "universal" time zone that was agreed upon (in 1884) is that of 0 degrees longitude. This longitude is, by definition, that of a line engraved in a brass plate in the floor of the Old Royal Observatory at Greenwich, England. UT is often called.....
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). Greenwich Mean Time" or UT1, until the popular meaning drifted to match UTC. Astronomers now try to avoid the term altogether unless they are waxing nostalgic. Adding to the confusion, GMT began the day at noon, not midnight. .
Coordinated Universal Time or UTC, Since 1967 the second has been defined as how long cesium-133 atoms take to emit 9,192,631,770 cycles of a certain microwave radiation in an atomic clock. To keep our clocks in close step with the turning of the Earth, a leap second is inserted into Universal Time when required - about once a year on average. A leap second may be added at the end of June 30th or December 31st UT, giving the last minute of the chosen day 61 seconds.
The result is the system by which all the world's clocks are set. UTC is the basis for all time-signal radio broadcasts and other time services.
Civil twilight - when the Sun's center is 6° below the horizon the brightest stars are visible and at sea the horizon is clearly defined.
Nautical twilight - when the Sun's center is 12 degrees below the horizon this would be the "dark" to obey in the mother's order to "be home before dark"! For nautical purposes it is that time when the horizon ceases to be clearly visible and it is impossible to determine altitudes with reference to the horizon.
Astronomical twilight - when the Sun's center is 18 degrees below the horizon and there is no sun glow left at all.
John Harrison (March 24, 1693 - March 24, 1776) an English clock maker, who designed and built the world's first successful maritime clock, one whose accuracy was great enough to allow the determination of longitude over long distances.
Sky and Telescope article on Time
PlanetsVenus - just before dawn between Aquila and Sagittarius
Jupiter - in the wee hours of the morning in the constellation Libra. On the 5th of this month it stopped moving across the sky relative to the background stars and began its westward motion or retrogradation.
Go check out the finder forTransit of the Great Red Spot and a JAVA script to help you find Jupiter's moons
Saturn - is in Cancer the crab and come summer we should see that planet slow down and turn around as well.
Mars - in Taurus between Aldeberon and the Pleiades and speeding right along
Naked eye viewing- Moon is a waxing gibbous and becomes full on the 14th (don't forget the penumbral eclipse!)

Foot Pain
DescriptionAn in-depth report on the causes, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of foot pain.
Alternative NamesBunions; Corns; Hammertoe; Plantar Fasciitis
In general, the best shoes are well cushioned and have a leather upper, stiff heel counter, and flexible area at the ball of the foot. The heel area should be strong and supportive, but not too stiff, and the front of the shoe should be flexible. New shoes should feel comfortable right away, without a breaking in period.
Getting the Correct Fit
Well-fitted shoes with a firm sole and soft upper are the best way to prevent nearly all problems with the feet. They should be purchased in the afternoon or after a long walk, when the feet have swelled. There should be 1/2 inch of space between the largest toe and the tip of the shoe, and the toes should be able to wiggle upward. A person should stand when being measured, and both feet should be sized, with shoes bought for the larger-sized foot. It is important to wear the same socks as you would regularly wear with the new shoes. Women who are accustomed to wearing pointed-toe shoes may prefer the feel of tight-fitting shoes, but with wear their tastes will adjust to shoes that are less confining and properly fitted.
The Sole
Ideally, the shoe should have a removable insole. Thin, hard soles may be the best choice for older people. Elderly people wearing shoes with thick inflexible soles may be unable to sense the position of their feet relative to the ground, significantly increasing the risk for falling. Some research suggests that thick soles may even be responsible for foot injury in younger adults who engage in high-impact exercise.
The Heel
High heels are the major cause of foot problems in women. Although people believe that foot binding is a problem limited to Chinese women of the past, many fashionable high heels are designed to constrict the foot by up to an inch. One study suggests that wearing high heels may even lead to arthritis of the knee. Women who insist on wearing high-heeled shoes should at least look for shoes with wide toe room, reinforced heels that are relatively wide, and cushioned insoles. They should also keep the amount of time they spend wearing high heels to a minimum.
The way shoes are laced can be important for preventing specific problems. Laces should always be loosened before putting shoes on. People with narrow feet should buy shoes with eyelets farther away from the tongue than people with wider feet. This makes for a tighter fit for narrower feet and looser for wider. If, after tying the shoe, less than an inch of tongue shows, then the shoes are probably too wide. Tightness should be adjusted both at the top of the shoe and at the bottom. Where high arches cause pain, eyelets should be skipped to relieve pressure.
Breaking in and Wearing the Shoes
If shoes do require breaking in, moleskin pads should be placed next to areas on the skin where friction is likely to occur. Once a blister occurs, moleskin is not effective. Shoes should be changed during the day and rotated in their use. As soon as the heels show noticeable wear, the shoes or their heels should be replaced.
Special-Purpose Footwear
People should avoid extreme variations between their exercise, street, and dress shoes.
Exercise and Sports. Shoes purchased for exercise should be specifically designed for a persons preferred sport. For instance, a running shoe should especially cushion the forefoot, while tennis shoes should emphasize ankle support. Athletic socks are almost as important as shoes. Experts often recommend padded acrylic socks.
Occupational Footwear. Because a number of occupations put the feet in danger, workers in high-risk jobs should be sure their footwear is protective. For example, non-electric workers at risk for falling or rolling objects or punctures should wear shoes with steel toes and possibly other metal foot guards. Electric workers should wear footgear with no metal parts (or insulated steel toes) and rubber soles and heels. Chemical workers should wear shoes made of synthetics or rubber, not leather.

Any Advice on Cartegena?
We are looking into a Panama Canal cruise and have heard conflicting info on Cartegena. The word was that it was not nice at all. I still remember it from the movie "Romancing the Stone", but thinking if DCL stops here, it should be decent.
Anyone been there who could comment?

Well, IMHO it is similiar to the Mexican Riviera cruises. To some it is grand, to others not so much. Depends on your path, and also the one you take in port. Don't believe that if DCL docks there it meets your requirements for a safe port. DCL may be docking for necessary fuel, etc., not for your pleasure, fwiw. Good luck.

Went there on the PC EB in 2008. I was told stick with DCL tours and you'll be fine. Was teaching in a school with Colombian and Mexican students at the time and the Mexican students had more negative comments about Mexico than the Colombian ones did about Cartagena.

I am curious about Cartegena as well but I thought I would wait until the end of December when the PC cruise stops at that port and Dismembers posts their comments on that port.

We were there quite a while ago, so please take my comments with a grain of salt. Cartagena is one of the places where I prefer to stay on the ship.
When we toured there, on a HAL tour, the locals got in our faces (really violated our sense of personal space), and tried to get money out of us for pictures by trying to hand us parrots. One person tried to hand off a sloth to one of the people in our tour group.
As well, there were heavily-armed police (automatic rifles I think) every two blocks in the main tourist area.
Our tour guide had clearly been instructed to give us the 'official line' about the safety of Columbia. According to the tour guide, anything bad you have ever read about Columbia is entirely fictitious.
Columbia. Never again.

Looks like it's going to be a roll of the dice, lol. The more I am looking into the PC cruise, the more I think it may be the next one for us. It just sounds so interesting.

We went on a private tour with a large DIS group in 2008 on the EBPC cruise. Cartagena was my DS's favorite port. He was VERY excited to be visiting a different continent. We have seen soldiers with machine guns in several ports, as well as hawkers selling pictures, braids or jewelry -- so that was not a big deal for us. The only thing different in Cartagena was the fact that one time a guy followed people onto our tour bus, but the guide got him to leave. I thought that the city itself was beautiful. It reminded me a lot of New Orleans with the inner courtyards and the flower boxes lining the windows on the street. Regarding the vendors with animals. We joked that they must have shortcuts to take because they were always at the next stop on the tour before we were. There were some people who refused to get off the ship in Cartagena or Aruba on that cruise. I am glad that we did because we enjoyed both very much. There are places you don't want to go in a city in the U.S. It's the same thing when you are in a different country. We were with a large group of people we knew from the DIS meet thread. I wouldn't book a private tour with just your family -- but that is my general plan no matter where we go for excursions. Here are some pictures from our cruise.
It was the first visit by DCL to Cartagena, as well as the first cruise ship of the season, so there was a big celebration with dancers to greet us. People handed out pinwheels, balloons, fruit and candy as we got off the ship.
The tour buses were lined up on the pier area. Made it very easy with kids!
The streets looked the same throughout the city.

We were on the EBPC in 2008, and Cartegena was our favorite stop. Everyone in my family wants to go back on a PC cruise just for that port alone!
We booked a private tour with another family of four, so there were eight of us. I am pretty sure it was with the same company as the large DIS group did.
Our guide and driver were great. We happened to be the some of the first ones off the ship, and got our pictures in the Cartegena papers. If I spoke more then high school Spanish we would have been interviewed on TV. Since we were first off, our bus (so roomy since there was only 8 of us) was first to leave. So we got to all the stops before the crowds.
Our kids loved the Fort so much, that we stayed there longer, and we were able to change our itinerary a bit. It was great. Being in a small group we were able to hear what our guide was telling us, and the kids were so engaged and they were asking tons of questions. We also went to a local restaurant for lunch. The local cuisine is so good.
Yes, there were vendors in your face (we were the first cruise ship of the season). And our guide warned us about the pictures with animals. We just smiled and said no.
Of all the stops on that cruise, that is the one we want to do again! If my inlaws weren't on a trip during December this year, DH and I would have been on that ship!!
It's a beautiful city, you will love it!
FYI, my kids were 12 and 7 at the time, the 2 kids in our group were about the same.

The twelve characters thing is an effort to stop these type of posts I think but a thumbs up button would be far better imo. I am aware that quoting posts puts a lot more pressure on the server and I think this would make for less quoting. Just a suggestion to try and be helpful.

This BBQ Sword Spatula is flippin' great! Now you can fearlessly sizzle sausages, chargrill chops and sear steaks with your trusty BBQ Sword protecting you from flames, spitting fat and duelling drum sticks.
The BBQ Sword Spatula is made from heavy gauge stainless steel for strength and is the perfect way to grill in safety and style.
Includes a free cardboard Musketeer's Mask when you need to keep your identity a secret. For example: when the sausages got burnt.
WARNING: Unless you're a 17th century Musketeer named D'Artagnan, trained and certified in the art of swordsmanship, you must take great care when using this BBQ Sword Spatula. Do not use whilst under the influence of alcohol. Keep away from children. It is not a toy, it must not be used to settle a duel.

We are lucky enough to be able to buy fresh fruit and vegetables in season at the local farmer's market twice a week in our village. We do fill in with some grocery store fruits and vegetables, but then to just wait for something to be in season here.
I haven't had anything to preserve for my keeping kitchen, until now.
|capers are an ancient plant used in Mediterranean cuisine
How many of you have ever seen capers growing?
Here in Tuscany, they can be seen growing out of rock walls, even in Florence.
I am lucky, just in the little piazza where we park our car, there are capers growing on the church wall.
Recently, I had heard about the use of caper leaves in cooking in Greece and in Turkey. This year I will have some of my own. I have prepared grape leaves myself years ago for dolmades and immagine it will be the same.
Salt cured capers and their leaves, brined.
For years, salt has been used for preserving. Sea salt has no additives and is the best to use.
Today, I went and gathered both the capers and their leaves. Capers are the unopened buds of the Capparis Spinosa bush.They are best when picked small and then can be salt cured or brined.
As when I cure my own olives, the tiny caper berries are rinsed off, then packed in fine sea salt. As the salt draws the water out of the caper buds, I will drain it off and then keep the capers in a small amount of salt to use later.
People often rinse them off before adding to the dish, I just add them and use them as the salt for the dish!
This year I am also trying something new. Preserved caper leaves.
I am going to use this process of the lacto-fermentation for the leaves.
Leaching the bitter flavor out of the leaves and then brining them. I will soak the leave in water and then make a salt water brine to "pickle" them.
They are served with fish or in salads.

Sebastian Vettel's rivals may be worried that they might never win titles again with the German around, but Bernie Ecclestone is convinced his dominance won't last much longer.
The Red Bull driver was in a class of his own in Singapore on Sunday as he won by more than 32 seconds and leave rivals Fernando Alonso, Kimi Raikkonen and Lewis Hamilton in his wake.
His victory helped him to open a 60-point lead at the top of the standings and all but secured him a fourth consecutive World Championship.
However, F1 surpremo Ecclestone is confident the Vettel era won't go on forever.
"His domination will end, maybe in 2014. We're going to have completely new cars, new engines, new rules," Ecclestone told Germany's Bild.
"That will be the chance for Ferrari and Mercedes to catch up with Vettel. Next year it might not be the best driver but the best car that wins the title."
Vettel was once again booed on the podium in Singapore, but Ecclestone believes it was down to his dominant display.
"He doesn't give Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton a chance, he's as dominant as (Ayrton) Senna or (Michael) Schumacher in certain periods."

Detroit Snob
By Puakea Olaisha Anderson
Special to the Michigan Citizen
Like many big city folks, Detroiters enjoy wearing their pride — literally. Walking around midtown and downtown, you're sure to see all kinds of T-shirts representing "the D." Detroit Snob is one that stands out among the many, with its rhinestone letters.
What is a Detroit Snob? Desiree Cooper explained to the Michigan Citizen the origin of her T-shirt line, Detroit Snob.
"When you put on that shirt, you have to defend why you are wearing it. It can be a self-esteem thing for us to remember," said the 53-year-old mother of two. "There is so much that we can be proud about in Detroit."
For the past two years, Cooper and co-owner Patt Williams Taitt Euseary have boosted the morale of many Detroiters with the Detroit Snob T-shirt line.
Cooper says the inspiration for the line came from the the youth she encountered in the city. And it helped that she had more time on her hands from being laid off from the Detroit Free Press after 11 years.
"I was a journalist for 11 years at the Detroit Free Press. I was laid off and I waited about a year and I said, 'Let's do this,'" she said. "I was noticing how younger people felt 'in the club' when they ventured into the city to enjoy music, clubs and art."
Detroit Snob contributes to the community by partnering with different companies and nonprofits to conduct fundraisers.

According To Dealer
December 12, 2007 about Toyota Camry
One time I was stuck in really bad traffic and the E light came on. I was concerned because gas mileage can really go down in stop and go driving like that, so I called my dealer - he said there's at least 30 or 40 miles more to go after empty. I have never really put it to the test, the most I have done was 20 miles after "E", and even then I only had to put in 15.5 gal (the 2003 Camry has a 17-gal the tank), so in theory there should be at least 30 miles more in addition to the 20 I already got, for a total of at least 50. But, no sense putting it to the test :)

I hope this will make a tastey carryover hooch?? I used 8 cans of Barcadi Daquri mix. The berry flavor was so much more intense than fresh berries.
8 cans of mix
10 lbs of sugar
3 envelopes of Fleichmans yeast
3 beanno tabs (disolved)
2 tablespoons of yeast nutrients
and a squirt of lemon juice
Added yeast and yeast nutrients about 6 hours after mixing converted sugar water and Daq. mixers. It took off in about an hour which seemed to me REALLY quick. Hoping for the best.... will leave the hooch @ 100 proof, now what to mix the hooch with?????

Make it snappy: The most neglected room in the house may be the kitchen, as time-pressed consumers continue to seek food preparation shortcuts. By 2005, predicts a study by international management consulting firm McKinsey & Co. Inc., many Americans will have never cooked a meal from scratch.

Apply wheat germ shampoo to wet hair.
Massage to lather. Rinse.
If needed, repeat the operation and leave it on for a few minutes to smoothe down the scales and trap the artificial pigments, and then rinse thoroughly.
The acidic pH may leave hair brittle, so after you rinse out the shampoo, I recommend always treating the length and ends of your hair with the wheat germ mask, a nourishing supplement that is crucial for colored hair. Leave the mask for 5 to 30 minutes and rinse thoroughly once again.
Your color is preserved, your hair is deeply nourished and shiny.
Alternate the wheat germ shampoo and the wheat germ mask with the cleansing cream with lemon (1 out of 4 shampoos) to provide other nutrients.

News from the Valley Neighbours Club
By: By Laura Hayward
| Posted: Wednesday, Jul 09, 2014 02:43 pm
Such a lovely Canada Day. I took in the festivities in Black Diamond and there was a good crowd to enjoy the music and, of course, the native dancers.
Our activities have come to a near screeching halt for the summer. No one showed up for euchre on June 30, but we will keep opening up and see how it goes. Basically, bridge is scheduled on Tuesday and Wednesday at 1 p.m., is the only activity not taking a summer hiatus.
The June 30 senior�s supper at the Legion was delicious, although poorly attended. There will be Christmas in July on July 28, but no supper in August.
Congratulations to John Barlow on his success in the recent by-election. In my never to be humble opinion, he is the best of the best and I sincerely hope they will welcome him in Ottawa for the outstanding individual that he is.
July 24, 25 and 26 are moonless nights and perfect for stargazing at the Rothney Astrophysical Observatory on Highway 22. The fun starts at 10 p.m. and cost is by donation. Go and enjoy the night sky.
Did anyone see the triple moon conjunction on Saturday night? My patience was rewarded at 11:45 p.m., the clouds broke and there hung the waxing moon between Spica and Mars and all within the field of my binoculars. I can�t imagine how awesome it would have been with a telescope.

When there's invading seaweed in your neighborhood, who you gonna call? Well, a new study by scientists at Georgia Tech shows that when corals are threatened by toxic algae they use chemical signals to call for help from their "bodyguards", the unassuming goby fish.
The study, carried out on coral reefs in Fiji and published in the November 8 issue of the journal Science, shows that within moments of the coral's "911 call" the gobies respond to these chemical distress signals and pick off the offending seaweed. What's in it for the fish? Gobies spend their entire lives with the same patch of coral, using it for protection from predators and even feeding on mucus produced by the coral. It comes as little surprise then that the goby takes any threat to its shelter very seriously.
"The fish are getting protection in a safe place to live and food from the coral," said Mark Hay, a biology professor at Georgia Tech and the study's co-author. "The coral gets a bodyguard in exchange for a small amount of food. It's kind of like paying taxes in exchange for police protection."
For one species of goby, feeding on the toxic algae has the secondary effect of making the fish itself more toxic to predators.
Coral is under threat worldwide from pollution and ocean acidification from human activity. When corals are stressed, aggressive algae competing for sunlit patches of ocean floor can represent a death blow to coral reefs and the magnificent ecosystems they support. At least one fish, though, isn't letting the reef go down without a fight.

Blag Hag has moved!
Before we touch on anything else, remember this: McCreight is always Right. It rhymes. If you ever meet me in person and actually pronounce my name correctly, you'll get a thousand bonus points.
Other than being a giant biology nerd, I'm also really active in the atheist movement. I wasn't raised in a religious household, so moving to a conservative Midwestern community for college was a bit of a culture shock for me. I co-founded the Society of Non-Theists at Purdue University at the beginning of my sophomore year, and was President for three years. We now have over 400 people on the mailing list, which should tell you two things: 1) Purdue desperately needed a voice for secularism and 2) I'm kind of insane when it comes to organizing things. I was also recently elected to the Board of Directors of the Secular Student Alliance, where hopefully I'll continue to help secular groups across the nation.
I'm liberal, pro-choice, a huge supporter of gay rights, and oddly obsessed with human sexuality. Like, a lot. PZ gets squids, Hemant gets baby eating, and I get sex. I think I win.
In my nonexistent free time, I like painting and drawing, golfing (8 handicap, woo!), and playing video games. Especially Civ 4. Taking over the world is fun.
About the Blog
Blag Hag was created on March 11, 2009, mostly out of boredom. To be completely honest, I had just gotten out of a long relationship and needed something to pass the time in the void known as singledom. I thought, why not blog? I love writing, and I had kept a personal blog since middle school - a Xanga which I later upgraded to a LiveJournal (I am so classy). I'm also horribly opinionated about things, so it seemed like the perfect hobby.
haphazardly picked a name based on a bad pun just so I could get started. I never fathomed that people other than my close friends would actually want to read this thing, or that I'd start being referred to as The Blag Hag (Moral of the story: Think before you name things). But then I was Pharyngulated a couple of times, and apparently people think I'm funny (?) when I'm ranting about stupid people. There's no shortage of stupid people in the world (unfortunately), so people stuck around (fortunately).
This blog doesn't have a specific theme, unless you count Shit Jen Thinks About as one. Most posts are about atheism, religion, science, biology, sex, feminism, politics, and any strange combination of those things.

"active in the atheist movement"ReplyDelete
There's a movement? Does there need to be a movement? I thought atheism is a position or perspective that an individual chooses, possibly in common with others. But if there's a 'movement', that must mean that you're out to promote it and establish it. You know, like a religion. So, you're evangelical? Seems pretty absurd, really.
@Anonymous... atheist movement, is not about converting ...it's about showing those with doubts that they are not alone, about grouping together for a somewhat common voice with respect to how non-believers are treated in our society, about showing believers that non-believers can be decent human beings and come by their non-belief honestly through thoughtful reflection. Most Americans have no idea about any of this. They just thing "atheist" = "God hater"...which is absurd. But my final comment about atheism being like a religion....only if not collecting stamps is a hobby!ReplyDelete

So, do non-stamp collectors get together and start a movement with a somewhat common voice with respect to how non-stamp collectors are treated in our society, about showing stamp collectors that non- stamp collectors can be decent human beings and come by their non - stamp collecting honestly through thoughtful reflection?
Do most Americans think "non-stamp collectors" are "stamp haters" ?

Hi Jen,ReplyDelete
Been reading your blog for a while and enjoy your irreverence and free rolling style, you always have something interesting to say and aren't afraid to do so. Bravo, keep up the good work, and I apologize for not commenting sooner.
I also like it that you allow theists to comment, at least until they become obnoxious. I was once a believer, though never a creationist and I always tried to fit my beliefs in with what I knew of science. But in the end that just doesn't work, and here I find myself an atheist. All that to say that everyone has to come to their interpretation of the facts in their own way and in their own time, so thanks for giving them that space, if they choose to use it.
I just found your blog. Great Scott! I like it here. It is great to see our fellow nonbelievers out there reading your Blag Hag. As one non-biology understanding atheist to a complete biology loving atheist, I'd like to say, "Thanks for posting these powerful thoughts. May they be fruitful and multiply".ReplyDelete
For some reason I can not see/enter comments on the main page. In looking for an e-mail address I found this page, which I can see/enter comments (I hope).ReplyDelete
Don't know if this is something you've done, I've done or just the Internet needs a cup of coffee.
Comments are back, I did nothing but walk around the block, guess the Internet just wasn't awake.ReplyDelete
Notice that the true believers seem to always post "Anonymously"? You're wonderful because the Flying Spaghetti Monster is real and so is his love. Is God evil for aborting all those miscarriages? Do Christians ever really read the Bible, not just the parts they like? Why do Christians feel the need to attack science. Even the Catholics have accepted Galileo and Evolution, just give them another 400 years and they will be able to deal with pedophile Priest. Since when did ignorance become a point of view? Oh that's right it's not ignorance, its faith.ReplyDelete
Someone probably already said this upstairs in the comments(tl;dr) but almost everyone is obsessed with human sexuality, so don't feel odd!ReplyDelete
If on the other hand you feel not odd but special, proceed.
