“I’m very impressed with him.  Very impressed.  I’m not going to BS you.  He’s very detail-oriented.  His practices are very methodical in nature.  He goes from one thing to the next thing.  You know, he’s punching a clock, and it’s very high energy.  It’s a high motor type of practice, a physical practice, a competitive practice, and I like it.”

“I really want to win for him in the worst way, because I see how much he works and I see how much he wants it.  I hear the criticism he takes, and I believe it to be unwarranted. It makes me want to work even harder than I already am.”

96 New Reasons To Love Star Clusters

—

“Ninety-six clusters of stars in the sky…. Ninety-six clusters of stars… You take one down and pass it around…” Do you need ninety-six new reasons to love astronomy? Then you’re going to want to hear about all the new discoveries the VISTA infrared survey telescope at ESO’s Paranal Observatory has made. Read on…  

An international team of astronomers has taken observations to the next level with their discovery of 96 new star clusters which have been hidden behind the dusty cloak of interstellar matter. By utilizing sensitive infrared detectors and the world’s largest survey telescope, the intrepid crew set a new record for finding so many faint and small clusters at one time.

“This discovery highlights the potential of VISTA and the VVV survey for finding star clusters, especially those hiding in dusty star-forming regions in the Milky Way’s disc. VVV goes much deeper than other surveys,” says Jura Borissova, lead author of the study.

A friend who’s been watching the absurd machinations in Congress asked me “what happens if we don’t solve the budget crisis and we run out of money to pay the nation’s bills?”

It was only then I realized how effective Republicans lies have been. That we’re calling it a “budget crisis” and…
