The Big Picture blog--a news blog in pictures (yes, big ones)--has started a galactic Advent calendar. As the lead notes:
"Every day, for the next 25 days, a new photo will be revealed here from the amazing Hubble Space Telescope. As I take this chance to share these images of our amazing Universe with you, I wish for a Happy Holiday to all those who will celebrate, and for Peace on Earth to everyone."
The images really are beautiful. I'll take this as an Advent calendar any day--kind of puts all the squabbles about "Christmas" versus "holidays" in perspective.

Speaking of 'Christmas' vs 'Holidays'- MSNBC's Olbermann names our (well, my) estimable Senator as Worst Person in The World.

Sidenote- I think it's entirely unfair that Bach's famous d minor is constantly used as background for this kind of thing.
Those air quotes around "encourage" are awesome.
