    In a speech made in late October, Harriet Harman, Deputy Labour Leader called Danny Alexander, Chief Secretary to the Treasury (who’s red-headed), a “ginger rodent.” She later apologized for this remark. Today in the House of Commons, Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg referred to this remark, stating, “any form of discrimination against rodents or ginger headed folk is wrong.” From C-SPAN coverage of the British House of Commons (11/10/10).

    I see a red door and I want it painted black
    No colors anymore I want them to turn black
    I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
    I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

    I see a line of cars and they’re all painted black
    With flowers and my love both never to come back
    I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
    Like a new born baby it just happens every day

    I look inside myself and see my heart is black
    I see my red door and must have it painted black
    Maybe then I’ll fade awa

    Somethin’ filled up
    my heart with nothin’,
    someone told me not to cry.

    But now that I’m older,
    my heart’s colder,
    and I can see that it’s a lie.

    Children wake up,
    hold your mistake up,
    before they turn the summer into dust.

    If the children don’t grow up,
    our bodies get bigger but our hearts get torn up.
    We’re just a million little gods causin’ rain storms turnin’ every good thing to
    rust.

    I guess we’ll just have to adjust.

    With my lightnin’ bolts a glowin’
    I can see where I am goin’ to be

    This Is After Forever live in Greece

    Lyrics:
    Have you ever thought about your soul – can it be saved?
    Or perhaps you think that when you’re dead you just stay in your grave
    Is God just a thought within your head or is He a part of you?

    This morning the President went to a meeting hosted by the Vice President to discuss the New START treaty and why it is in our clear national security interest that the Senate approve it this year. The President said that “the key point here is this is not about politics, it’s about national security” — and indeed the names on the attendee list spoke to the gravity of the issue and overwhelming support from America’

    Explanation:
    Sometimes, you can put some night sky in your art.
    Captured above
    Japan earlier this month, a picturesque night sky was photographed behind a picturesque frosted leaf.
    The reflecting ice crystals on the leaf coolly mimic the shining stars far in the background.
    The particular background sky on
    this 48-second wide angle exposure,
    however, might appear quite interesting and familiar.
    On the far left, although hard to find, appears a
    streaking meteor.
    Below and to the right of the meteor appears a longer and brighter streak of an airplane.
    The bright star on the left is the dog-star
    Sirius, the brightest star on the night sky.
    To Sirius’ right appears the
    constellation of Orion, including the three linear belt stars below the red giant
    Betelgeuse.
    The bright patch of light further to the right is the
    Pleiades
    open star cluster.
    Similar views including the constellation
    Orion can be seen above much of the northern hemisphere for the next several months,
    although you might have to provide your own leaf.

    Sirius, the brightest star on the night sky.
    To Sirius’ right appears the
    constellation of Orion, including the three linear belt stars below the red giant
    Betelgeuse.
    The bright patch of light further to the right is the
    Pleiades
    open star cluster.
    Similar views including the constellation
    Orion can be seen above much of the northern hemisphere for the next several months,
    although you might have to provide your own leaf.

  • Sisters Of The Dusty Sky – Pleiades / Seven Sisters – Alan Moore (Born November 18, 1953) – What Is Reality?

    “Reality, at first glance, is a simple thing: the television speaking to you now is real. Your body sunk into that chair in the approach to midnight, a clock ticking at the threshold of awareness. All the endless detail of a solid and material world surrounding you. These things exist. They can be measured with a yardstick, a voltammeter, a weighing scale. These things are real. Then there’s the mind, half-focused on the TV, the settee, the clock. This ghostly knot of memory, idea and feeling that we call ourself also exists, though not within the measurable world our science may describe. Consciousness is unquantifiable, a ghost in the machine, barely considered real at all, though in a sense this flickering mosaic of awareness is the only true reality that we can ever know. The Here-and-Now demands attention, is more present to us. We dismiss the inner world of our ideas as less important, although most of our immediate physical reality originated only in the mind. The TV, sofa, clock and room, the whole civilisation that contains them once were nothing save ideas. Material existence is entirely founded on a phantom realm of mind, whose nature and geography are unexplored. Before the Age of Reason was announced, humanity had polished strategies for interacting with the world of the imaginary and invisible: complicated magic-systems; sprawling pantheons of gods and spirits, images and names with which we labelled powerful inner forces so that we might better understand them. Intellect, Emotion and Unconscious Thought were made divinities or demons so that we, like Faust, might better know them; deal with them; become them. Ancient cultures did not worship idols. Their god-statues represented ideal states which, when meditated constantly upon, one might aspire to. Science proves there never was a mermaid, blue-skinned Krishna or a virgin birth in physical reality. Yet thought is real, and the domain of thought is the one place where gods inarguably exist, wielding tremendous power. If Aphrodite were a myth and Love only a concept, then would that negate the crimes and kindnesses and songs done in Love’s name? If Christ were only ever fiction, a divine Idea, would this invalidate the social change inspired by that idea, make holy wars less terrible, or human betterment less real, less sacred? The world of ideas is in certain senses deeper, truer than reality; this solid television less significant than the Idea of television. Ideas, unlike solid structures, do not perish. They remain immortal, immaterial and everywhere, like all Divine things. Ideas are a golden, savage landscape that we wander unaware, without a map. Be careful: in the last analysis, reality may be exactly what we think it is.”
    – Alan Moore

    Explanation:
    Hurtling through a cosmic dust cloud some 400 light-years away,
    the lovely Pleiades or
    Seven Sisters
    star cluster is well-known for its striking blue
    reflection nebulae.
    In the dusty sky toward the constellation Taurus and the
    Orion Arm
    of our Milky Way Galaxy, this
    remarkable image shows the famous
    star cluster at the upper left.
    But lesser known dusty nebulae lie along the region’s fertile
    molecular cloud,
    within the 10 degree wide field,
    including the bird-like visage of
    LBN 777
    near center.
    Small bluish reflection nebula VdB 27 at the lower right is
    associated with the young, variable star
    RY Tau.
    At the distance of the Pleiades,
    the 5 panel mosaic
    spans nearly 70 light-years.
