How a Hubble Image Goes from Photons to Finished Beauty
Arp 274 is a trio of galaxies. They appear to be partially overlapping in this image, but may be located at different distances. Credit: NASA, ESA, M. Livio and the Hubble Heritage Team (STScI/AURA) How does raw data from the Hubble Space Telescope end up to become a finished gorgeous color image, like the one of Arp 274, above? It’s an interesting process, because the cameras on Hubble do not take color pictures. The Hubble team released a video today showing the process of creating an image of Arp 274: (...)Read the rest of How a Hubble Image Goes from Photons to Finished Beauty (148 words)

Context is Everything: Maddow on How We Arrived at Our Current Surveillance State
In the wake of the latest revelations of our massive, secret, invasive national security surveillance state, I've been trying to remind folks how we got here, and how it was that many on both the Right and Left --- though far more robustly on the Right --- not only allowed for these outrageous intrusions into the private lives of Americans, but actually supported them, a great deal, for well over

Two Quotes On Death
"If asked to explain the history of world civilizations in one word, it would be 'death.' Of all animals, man alone knows he will die, and this has fashioned his approach to life, and indeed to all existence. Either one follows the 'prehistoric' shamans, who hope to raise the bones of the dead, later amplified to include the body in some religions, or a belief of the voyage of the soul alone to

your John Oliver open thread
by liberal japonicus This insightful piece about Daily Central correspondent John Oliver in the Grauniad is quite interesting, but what I want to highlight His earliest Daily Show appearances played almost exclusively on his Britishness; most Americans, he points out, hear his distinctively Brummie accent as standard Posh English. He once interviewed Tea Party activists while purporting to be off

Forum on Muslim Americans Disrupted by Hundreds in Tennessee
Tennessee has been a hotbed of anti-Muslim activism for years, especially after plans were laid to build an Islamic center in Murfreesboro. There have been bomb threats and numerous conferences centered on the unfounded but widely hyped fear that Shariah law will somehow be imposed on Americans.

Aloha, Workers’ Rights!
Labor activists rejoiced April 30 when both chambers of Hawaii’s state legislature passed the Domestic Workers' Bill of Rights. The law extends the protections of Hawaii’s wage-and-hours law to cooks, nannies and care providers, and protects them from discrimination based on race, gender and sexual orientation. Advocates cheered the bill as further evidence of the transformation occurring in

The Dirty Wars, Abroad and At Home

Rethinking American Exceptionalism
"American exceptionalism" is perhaps the most misunderstood phrase in politics.

But we rarely stop to ask: Should we always want to be exceptional?    The assumption in our culture is

"Conservative Reformers" Face Steep Climb
By @TedFrier Okay, I admit it. I am obsessed with the Republican Party and its transformation into a vessel for a right wing movement that, by my reading of history, rejects democracy in favor of some form of authoritarian "freedom" that represents the worldview of reactionary conservatives, and only those conservatives, and is also dedicated to the preservation of the white race as the dominant c
