The black hole mass distribution in early-type galaxies: cusps in HST photometry interpreted through adiabatic black hole growth . ... I show that the observed characteristics of these cusps are consistent with the hypothesis that: (i) all early-type galaxies have central BHs that grew adiabatically in homogeneous isothermal cores; and (ii) these `progenitor' cores followed scaling relations similar to those of the fundamental plane. The models studied here are the ones first proposed by Young. ...

Following my last email alert, the indefatigable Martin McKenna (who else???) observed all four passes of the ISS last night. Also known as TMWNS (The Man Who Never Sleeps), Martin not only observed, but imaged, all four passes. He wrote "Hi Terry, Thanks for the email alert. ... Regards, Martin." Well done Martin! ...
