Among the extra scenes included in the new "Up in the Air" DVD that hits stores today is a clip of a baleful George Clooney in a spacesuit, his breathing tubes attached to his beloved wheeled suitcase as he makes his way from the airport to his apartment, while Ricky Nelson's "Lonesome Town" plays.
Here is one view of George Clooney the public hasn't seen: As an Apollo astronaut spacewalking through an airport.
One of the deleted scenes included with the DVD release of "Up in the Air," director Jason Reitman calls it his "greatest and strangest" missing scene. The spaceman subplot, presumably to dramatize the alienation felt by Clooney's shallow frequent flyer, was shot over extensive periods of the movie's shoot, much to the actor's chagrin.
"Being inside the space suit was uncomfortable," Reitman says in the director commentary. "I think it's fair to say George hated every second inside that thing."
"And of course there were many days we had to do it."
The scene is accompanied by Ricky Nelson's "Lonesome Town," as Clooney the astronaut wheels his suitcase past oblivious travelers. "I figured out pretty early on it wasn't going to make the film," said Reitman. "It was out of a different movie."
"No matter how much I liked it, tonally, it made no sense."

Since your last birthday, a lot of things have changed. For one, you're much smarter than you were last year. That's obvious.
But there might have been some other changes — ones that you weren't ready for. Perhaps you've sprouted several inches above everyone else in class. Or maybe they all did the sprouting and you feel too short.
Maybe you haven't gained a pound and you feel like a feather on the seesaw, or maybe you can't fit into your favorite pair of jeans. And now you're looking in the mirror, thinking only one thing: Am I normal?
First of all, what's normal? There's no one type of normal. Otherwise, the world would be full of a lot of abnormal people! The next time you go to the mall, take a look around. You'll see tall people, short people, and people with broad shoulders, little feet, big stomachs, long fingers, stubby legs, and skinny arms ... you get the idea.
You can change your hairstyle or put on a new hat, but the way you look isn't entirely under your control. Your looks were largely determined by your parents. When your parents created you, they passed on their genes — a kind of special code — and those genes helped to decide your size and shape, your eye color and hair texture, even whether you have freckles.
Height is just one of the thousands of features your genes decide. In fact, because you have two parents, your genes act like a referee, giving you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent. If both your parents are tall, then most likely you will be tall, too, but if you have questions about how tall you're going to be, ask your doctor if he or she can help you figure it out.
But genes don't decide everything. For example, eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to your full potential. Getting plenty of sleep, enough exercise, and nutrients will help you grow just like you should.
No doubt you're wondering how fast you should grow. It depends. There's no perfect or right amount. On average, kids grow about 2 inches (6 centimeters) a year between age 3 and when they start puberty (when your body starts changing and becoming more grown up).
Your doctor will know how your growth has been going over the years. Two centimeters here and 2 inches there are not nearly as important as the height you're at now, how you've been growing up to this point, and what other changes your body may be going through.
Don't be scared if you seem to have grown a lot in a very short time. Everyone has a growth spurt during puberty. The average age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for boys. But it can be earlier or later — between 7 and 13 for girls and 9 and 15 for boys.
You'll usually begin to notice that you're growing faster about a year or so after your body starts to show the first changes of puberty — girls will develop breasts and a boy's penis and testicles will get bigger.
Weight can vary a lot, too, from kid to kid. It's tempting to compare yourself with your friends. But kids often weigh more or less than their friends and are still considered normal. TV and magazines might make us think our bodies should weigh and look a certain way, but in real life, there are a lot of differences.
Some kids worry so much about their weight that they try unhealthy and dangerous things to change it. The best way to have a healthy weight is to eat right and get a lot of playtime (exercise).
If you have concerns about your weight — or how your body is changing — talk it over with a parent or your doctor. The doctor can tell you if anything is wrong.
But most likely, your one-of-a-kind body is growing just like it's supposed to.

With Brian Burke set to be officially announced as new general manager of the Maple Leafs at a news conference on Saturday (streamed live on TSN.ca at 2pm et/11am pt), Cliff Fletcher's time in his current role with Toronto is drawing to a close. On Friday, the interim GM spoke to TSN's Darren Dreger on his AM640 Toronto radio show.
"My mandate when I was brought in last January was to be the custodian of the keys until such time as they brought the person in that they wanted to guide the team into the future. It was very well laid out in advance, I enjoyed it, I thought I would only be running the team as a manager for four to five months and it ended up being double that time," Fletcher told AM640. "I think the time is right for Brian to come in and I really feel confident that he is the person to get the job done."
When asked if there would be any relief in leaving his position, Fletcher admitted that there would be after the transition from himself to Burke had taken place.
"I'll feel good about the fact I was able to give a good six month head start for Brian coming in and he can move forward and run the team the way he runs them and move the Leafs up the ladder as quickly as possible," Fletcher told the radio station.
Fletcher was not put in an enviable position at the start of his second term as Toronto's GM. He was tasked with making major changes and had tough dealings with several of the veteran players.
"When you are in the position I was in here, it's not an easy position to be in, but you just go about doing the business as professionally as you can."
As for his role with the club going forward, Fletcher said it would be up to Burke.
"If he does decide that he'd like me to be part of it then that's fine, I'd love to remain part of it because I love the Leafs and I think there are going to be some exciting times ahead for everybody," said Fletcher.
When asked about what accomplishment he was most proud of over his most recent tour with the Leafs, Fletcher pointed to moves made away from the ice.
"I think we've put together a real good organization off the ice and brought in some real fine hockey people starting with the coaching staff," he told AM640. "I think the Leafs have a good core of people and a good group who like working together. I'm happy we were able to accomplish that part of it."
The subject of Mats Sundin came up and Fletcher explained that Burke would have to decide if the Maple Leafs would pursue their former captain. He did say would expect certain factors to impact the decision.
"It's now approaching the 30-game mark and a player of Mats age, how long does it take him to get in shape once he joins a team, maybe a month," wondered Fletcher. "Maybe the equation doesn't quite match out for the Maple Leafs now as it would have maybe at the start of the season, I don't know, but those are issues that Brian will have to address."
One player who finds himself in an awkward situation is forward Dominic Moore, whose brother Steve is currently suing Burke and the Vancouver Canucks as part of the Todd Bertuzzi affair two years ago. But Moore does not anticipate any problems.
"It's not really an issue for me. There are issues outside of here that need to be addressed at some point," said Moore. "Obviously I'll support my family because that's what families do but beyond that, I'm able to separate things and I have no problem with Brian at all."

Minutes after announcing the Canon EOS 6D to the photo press at Photokina 2012, we managed to lay hands on a pre-production sample of the Canon 6D, Canon's lightest and most affordable full-frame DSLR to date.
Given the opportunity to handle and operate the Canon 6D for 30 minutes, we've prepared this first look, hands-on preview that describes our initial thoughts and impressions of the build, performance and handling.
Canon 6D build and construction
Coupled with Canon's 40mm pancake lens it's hardly surprising that the Canon 6D's lens and body combination felt extremely light in the hand.
Getting a good grasp of the camera reveals how well sculpted the grip is and though it may not share the beefy and muscular feel of the EOS 5D Mark III, it's comfortable to hold and reasonably solid too.
At the launch Canon presented a dissected body of a Canon 6D, providing a better understanding of what lies beneath the surface. As one might expect for an enthusiast model it features a magnesium metal front and rear cover construction.
If we could describe the build in any way we'd say it's a blend of the EOS 5D Mark III and the EOS 60D bodies, with similar dimensions of the latter.
The scroll dial at the rear of the camera is smaller on the Canon 6D than on more advanced EOS full-frame models and this leaves quite a lot of free space beside the 3inch, 1,040,000-dot Clear View II LCD screen.
Interestingly, Canon opted to keep the Canon 6D with a fixed screen rather than a Vari-angle type and our first impressions of it are very complimentary.
Comparing the back view of the Canon 6D to the 5D Mk III, it's the Canon 6D that has the more spacious layout, but importantly it doesn't loose any important buttons, with all the controls you need to quickly activate Live View and record HD video.
The mode dial features its own lock - a feature we've become accustomed to seeing on most Canon EOS DSLR's since the 5D Mark II. There's no dedicated rate button however so this has to be done through the menu instead.
Canon 6D in use
Shooting a few frames overlooking Cologne and reviewing them on the back of the camera revealed a bright and sharp image. Also, rather than using your left hand to zoom into an image like you do on the EOS 5D Mark III, the zoom button is located on the right side of the camera which we much prefer.
Canon 6D AF system
The 11-point AF system might not be as complex at the 5D Mark III's 61-point offering, however initial impressions of its speed and accuracy during our brief hands on were excellent.
AF points are illuminated in red as you compose and half depress the shutter button and it locked on and offered a reassuring AF beep very quickly. It's worth bearing in mind though that the AF system only features one cross type point in the centre and when you compare it to Nikon's D600 and its AF system, the latter offers better frame coverage.
The Canon 6D sounds very similar to the 5D Mark III when it's being fired, albeit slower by 1.5fps.
Canon 6D menu system
Other points to note were the slight changes to menu system. The icons at the top appear slightly smaller and there seems more of them.
Navigating the menu of the Canon 6D is extremely quick thanks to the dpad sitting within the scroll dial - a great design that's intuative to use, especially when we were moving the AF point through the frame.
Canon 6D price
With an asking price of £1799 it feels like you're getting a lot of camera for your money with the Canon EOS 6D.
Users who have been thinking of upgrading to a full-frame model have never had it so good and with Nikon's D600 arriving at the office two days ago we couldn't resist taking a few side-by-side comparison photographs.
We're in the process of currently testing the Nikon D600, however we're going to have to be patient and wait until December before we put this pair up against each other in a head-to-head test.

The image above is a screen capture of the newest visualization from the F-Secure Labs: the F-Secure Globe, which you can click here to visit. (Requires WebGL.)
We spoke to to Lew Swee Meng, a software architect with F-Secure Malaysia, about this awesome 3-D project.
So what does this map show us?
F-Secure Globe is a 3-D visualization of locations with malware detections based on F-Secure data over the past 24 hours.
Where does the data come from?
The data is sourced from F-Secure worldmap3 REST interface which provides malware detection data & statistics for the last 24 hours.
The original service is available here: http://worldmap3.f-secure.com.
How does the data vary throughout the day, the week?
I haven't closely monitored the data can tell some based on my observations so far:
How did this map get developed?
This application is originated from F-Secure's KL Hackathon which was held on 12-13 April 2013. It involved internal and external developers where they have coded for about 26 hours. It has now since moved into F-Secure KickStarter as one our internal pet projects.
Since our virus world maps are mainly in 2-D form, I thought that it's cool to have a 3-D visualization and different interaction of the map.
On top of that, the data is aggregated for 24 hours and statistics are generated and displayed through the small widgets.
What are some interesting insights you've had or heard from people looking at the map?
The most common one is about the 3D globe and people has not seen our data represented so visually before.
Next, visible locations on the globe have given different insight into our protection coverage, for example we have detections at Greenland and Fiji.
People are also paying attention to the locations with the highest malware detections and trying to think about rationale behind it.
Then, I've heard some funny comments such as "It looks painful!" and "F-Secure, the new continent".
Lastly, the globe's resemblance to an Easter egg has managed to put smile on many faces.
Here's a visual explanation of what you're seeing on the map.
Everybody probably agree that the net has developed a discussion culture very different from what we are used to in real life. The used adjectives vary form inspiring, free and unrestricted to crazy, sick and shocking. The (apparent) anonymity when discussing on-line leads to more open and frank opinions, which is both good and bad. It becomes especially bad when it turns into libel and hate speech. What do you think about this? Read on and let us know in the poll below. We do have laws to protect us against defamation. But the police still has a very varying ability to deal with crimes on the net. And the global nature of Internet makes investigations harder. Most cases are international, at least here in Europe where we to a large extent rely on US-based services. This is in the headlines right now here in Finland because of a recent case. The original coverage is in Finnish so I will give you a short summary in English. A journalist named Sari Helin blogged about equal rights for sexual minorities, and how children are very natural and doesn't react anyway if a friend has two mothers, for example. This is a sensitive topic and, hardly surprising, she got a lot of negative feedback. Part of the feedback was clear defamation. Calling her a whore, among other nasty things. She considered it for a while and finally decided to report the case to the police, mainly because of Facebook comments. This is where the really interesting part begins. Recently the prosecutor released the decision about the case. They simply decided to drop it and not even try to investigate. The reason? Facebook is in US and it would be too much work contacting the authorities over there for this rather small crime. A separately interviewed police officer also stated that many of the requests that are sent abroad remain unanswered, probably for the same reason. This reflects the situation in Finland, but I guess there are a lot of other countries where the same could have happened. Is this OK? The resourcing argument is understandable. The authorities have plenty of more severe crimes to deal with. But accepting this means that law and reality drift even further apart. Something is illegal but everybody knows you will get away with the crime. That's not good. Should we increase resourcing and work hard to make international investigations smoother? That's really the only way to make the current laws enforceable. The other possible path is to alter our mindset about Internet discussions. If I write something pro-gay on the net, I know there's a lot of people who dislike it and think bad things about me. Does it really change anything if some of these people write down their thoughts and comment on my writings? No, not really. But most people still feel insulted in cases like this. I think we slowly are getting used to the different discussion climate on the net. We realize that some kinds of writing will get negative feedback. We are prepared for that and can ignore libel without factual content. We value feedback from reputable persons, and anonymous submissions naturally have less significance. Pure emotional venting without factual content can just be ignored and is more shameful for the writer than for the object. Well, we are still far from that mindset, even if we are moving towards it. But which way should we go? Should we work hard to enforce the current law and prosecute anonymous defamers? Or should we adopt our mindset to the new discussion culture? The world is never black & white and there will naturally be development on both these fronts. But in which direction would you steer the development if you could decide? Now you have to pick the one you think is more important. [polldaddy poll=8293148] Looking forward to see what you think. The poll will be open for a while and is closed when we have enough data. Safe surfing, Micke
You have all seen the pictures circulating on the net. A bunch of people all tapping at their smartphones and paying no attention to the world around them. With the title: ANTISOCIAL. And you have probably also seen this is real life. Sometimes a friend just seems to be more interested in the phone than in you. And maybe it has been the other way around sometime? ;) Most of these people are probably using social media. I do agree that it is rude to ignore persons who are physically present and pay more attention to the phone. Especially if you are alone with someone. And yes, that behavior seems antisocial from other's point of view. But the funny thing is really that social media and our mobile devices form the most social system invented so far. Think about it. You can be in contact with people everywhere in the world. You can send and receive messages instantly and follow what others do right now. You can share your own feelings spontaneously. You can have a pure peer-to-peer exchange of thoughts not curated by any outsiders. You can select to communicate with a single person or a larger group. You are not limited to written text, you can use pictures and video as well. The real point here is that those "antisocial" types aren't just tapping their phones, they are communicating with real people. Our traditional definition for the word social was formed before we had Internet. People associate it with personal face-to-face contact and are slow to update their mindsets. Or to be precise, we already have a younger generation who have grown up with the net and social media services. Their definition is up to date, but many of us older persons still see the net as less social or not social at all. Let's all agree to never call someone who is concentrating on the phone antisocial. But the word rude may be justified. Let's also agree to not be rude against others by ignoring them in favor of the phone. It's of course OK to check the phone now and then at the party, but always prioritize people who are present and want to talk to you. And why not take it one step further? Turn off the phone and try to be without it for a couple of hours. Can you do it? Next time you go out for dinner with someone is a good time for that experiment. You may be less social on the net for a while, but your company will see you as much more social. Safe surfing, Micke PS. If you must be able to take urgent calls and can't turn off the phone, at least turn off the data connection. That will mute the social media apps.
You have heard the news. Russian hackers have managed to collect a pile of no less than 1,2 billion stolen user IDs and passwords from approximately 420 000 different sites. That's a lot of passwords and your own could very well be among them. But what's really going on here? Why is this a risk for me and what should I do? Read on, let's try to open this up a bit. First of all. There are intrusions in web systems every day and passwords get stolen. Stolen passwords are traded on the underground market and misused for many different purposes. This is nothing new. The real news here is just the size of the issue. The Russian hacker gang has used powerful scripts to harvest the Internet for vulnerable systems and automatically hacked them, ending up with this exceptionally large number of stolen passwords. But it is still good that people write and talk about this, it's an excellent reminder of why your personal passwords habits are important. Let's first walk you through how it can go wrong for an ordinary Internet user. Let's call her Alice. Alice signs up for a mail account at Google. She's lucky, email@example.com is free. She's aware of the basic requirements for good passwords and selects one with upper- and lowercase letters, digits and some special characters. Alice is quite active on the net and uses Facebook as well as many smaller sites and discussion forums. Many of them accepts email@example.com as the user ID. And it's very logical to also use the same password, it sort of belongs together with that mail address and who wants to remember many passwords? Now the evil hackers enter the scene and starts scanning the net for weak systems. Gmail is protected properly and withstands the attacks. But many smaller organizations have sites maintained on a hobby basis, and lack the skills and resources to really harden the site. One of these sites belongs to a football club where Alice is active. The hackers get access to this site's user database and downloads it all. Now they know the password for email@example.com on that site. Big deal, you might think. The hackers know what games Alice will play in, no real harm done. But wait, that's not all. It's obvious that email@example.com is a Gmail user, so the hackers try her password on gmail.com. Bingo. They have her email, as well as all other data she keeps on the Google sites. They also scan through a large number of other popular internet sites, including Facebook. Bingo again. Now the hackers have Alice's Facebook account and probably a couple of other sites too. Now the hackers starts to use their catch. They can harvest Alice's accounts for information, mail conversations, other's contact info and e-mails, documents, credit card numbers, you name it. They can also use her accounts and identity to send spam or do imposter scams, just to list some examples. So what's the moral of the story? Alice used a good password but it didn't protect her in this case. Her error was to reuse the password on many sites. The big sites usually have at least a decent level of security. But if you use the same password on many sites, its level of protection is the same as the weakest site where it has been used. That's why reusing your main mail password, especially on small shady sites, is a huge no-no. But it is really inconvenient to use multiple strong passwords, you might be thinking right now. Well, that's not really the case. You can have multiple passwords if you are systematic and use the right tools. Make up a system where there is a constant part in every password. This part should be strong and contain upper- and lowercase characters, digits and special characters. Then add a shorter variable part for every site. This will keep the passwords different and still be fairly easy to remember. Still worried about your memory? Don't worry, we have a handy tool for you. The password manager F-Secure Key. But what about the initial question? Does this attack by the Russian hackers affect me? What should I do? We don't know who's affected as we don't know (at the time of writing) which sites have been affected. But the number of stolen passwords is big so there is a real risk that you are among them. Anyway, if you recognize yourself in the story about Alice, then it is a good idea to start changing your passwords right away. You might not be among the victims of these Russian hackers, but you will for sure be a victim sooner or later. Secure your digital identities before it happens! If you on the other hand already have a good system with different passwords on all your sites, then there's no reason to panic. It's probably not worth the effort to start changing them all before we know which systems were affected. But if the list of these 420 000 sites becomes public, and you are a user of any of these sites, then it's important to change your password on that site. Safe surfing, Micke


text: Nice map. this is the first time I think I have seen someone use my paving stones in a map, beyond my test mini maps. I don't remember any at the DJ site. I think they came out okay though I can see areas I should have tweaked more, isn't that always the case with me. I think you did a great job edging them, I had not thought about providing edging stones but now I can see the value. Thanks

Patrick Edlinger on the cover of Vertical Magazine 5, solo in Joshua Tree
UKC News, Nov 2012
© Photo by: Gérard Kosicki Iconic French climber Patrick Edlinger has died aged 52. The French sport climbing pioneer passed away on Friday the 16th of November.
Edlinger was well known not only for his hard sport onsights in the early 80's, but also for his audacious solo ascents of technical and hard routes such as Orange Mécanique, an 8a at Cimai, and multiple solos in the huge Verdon Gorge.
He went on to climb routes at the very limit of difficulty in the late 80's.
A full obituary is scheduled for publication on UKClimbing later this week.

ALLEN PARK,MI (WTVB) - The Lions Monday cut loose Mike Thomas, the wide receiver they traded for last October in a deal with Jacksonville. Thomas leaves with Detroit still owing him 1-million dollars in guaranteed salary from the 1.45 million dollar contract he signed with the Lions reportedly giving up a fifth round draft pick in the transaction. Safety Louis Delmas yesterday took part in practice drills for the first time in two weeks and said he's his injured knee is feeling good enough that he wants to be on the field Thursday when Detroit plays its third pre-season game hosting the New England Patriots.
Lions head coach Jim Schwartz said that star wide receiver Calvin Johnson, who missed last Thursday's game in Cleveland with a bruised knee, and was out of practice Sunday and yesterday, is day to day and they don't know yet if he'll be back for the matchup against New England.

Perhaps today is the day that poor people can afford a dog. I urge you all to read John Palino's animal welfare policy:
Under a Palino-led Council, several major changes are likely:
- Existing animal control contracts will be reviewed, with a view to replacing the focus on profit with an approach that encourages responsible pet ownership and supports Aucklanders' right to enjoy the company of their four-legged friends.
- The current euthanasia rates will be addressed. A focus on rehoming unwanted animals rather than euthanising will be introduced.
This best friend saved a life::
A police dog who saved his handler by leaping into the path of a bullet has been posthumously recognised for his actions.
Senior Constable Bruce Lamb's police dog Gage was fatally shot in what should have been a routine drugs search in a Christchurch house in July, 2010.
Gage leapt into the path of a bullet, helping to save the life of his handler and that of Constable Mitchell Alatalo, who was also injured during the incident in Buccleugh Street.
The NZ Herald writes that Col Sheehan has survived a brush with death - and he thanks dog for that:
"The dog annoyed the hell out of me - he was licking my face and carrying on, there was no way I was going to get any rest - he just wouldn't give up either," Mr Sheehan said. "He was carrying on like something was wrong - and he was right."
"So on the way past I picked up the phone and called the medical centre."
In the land of the free the same thing can happen to a dog as here:
A summer thunderstorm hit the Fort Worth area, and spooked Avery enough that he bolted from the Medlens' backyard and was picked up by Fort Worth Animal care and Control. The Medlens went to the shelter to get Avery back but didn't have enough cash with them to pay the fee, so they were forced to return and Avery was given a "hold for owner" tag. When the Medlens returned to pick up Avery though, they were told that due to a mix-up, Avery had ended up on the list of unwanted dogs to be euthanized and had been put to sleep.
dog whisperer Cesar Millan doesn't see a difference between a billionaire's dog and the furry friend of a homeless person.
How sad we do in NZ.
A little dog, carried away by one of the Alabama tornadoes, somehow made it back home, two weeks later, walking on two broken legs! His name is "Mason" and he was in his owners' garage, when the storm blew him away.
Cash-strapped LA going after unlicensed dogs
...Council President Eric Garcetti estimates two-thirds of the city's dogs are unlicensed. Licenses cost $15 for a sterilized dog and $100 for an unaltered pet.
Getting all dogs licensed would mean at least an additional $3.6 million in fees to the city.
From KC DOG BLOG, in America, but so familiar here:
Two 'pit bulls' in Crawford County, MI are on death row -- but not for reasons you might suspect.
An Auckland dog owner is up in arms after animal control officers broke into his fenced backyard and took his dog.
The family pet was seized because its registration had expired but the owner believes the council overreacted. ...
"We were essentially 18 days overdue and it seems like a really radical step," says Broderick.
Animal Control actually went to great lengths to capture the dog.
They came down the side of the property and reaching the gate, which is locked from the inside, neighbours said they then jumped the fence and dragged Stanley away. ...
Photo will be posted.
Story received recently - edited.
" I live in Papatoetoe and recently one of my dogs barked, which usually means somethings up. I am retired and feel safe because if they bark there is always something up. In 5 mins the dog catchers were at the front door saying they had a NEIGHBOUR COMPLAINT THAT A DOG HAD BARKED. Both of my dogs were loaded in the van and they were gone. They werent registered because I dont have much money left over every week and I asked if I could pay off the registration like I do with all my other bills but they just wouldnt let me. They said pay the cash in 7days or we kill your dogs.

Levant, Alex and Vesa Oittinen, eds. (2014) Dialectics of the Ideal: Evald Ilyenkov and Creative Soviet Marxism. Leiden: Brill
In Dialectics of the Ideal: Evald Ilyenkov and Creative Soviet Marxism, Levant and Oittinen provide a window into the subterranean tradition of creative Soviet Marxism, which developed on the margins of the Soviet academe and remains largely outside the orbit of contemporary theory in the West. With his activity approach, E.V. Ilyenkov, its principal figure in the post-Stalin period, makes a substantial contribution toward an anti-reductionist theory of the subject, which should be of interest to contemporary theorists who seek to avoid economic and cultural reductionism as well as the malaise of postmodern relativism. This volume features Levants translation of Ilyenkovs Dialectics of the Ideal (2009), which remained unpublished until thirty years after the authors tragic suicide in 1979.
Levant, Alex (2008) The Soviet Union in Ruins. Saarbrücken: VDM Verlag.
Contemporary scholarship tends to view the Soviet Union as a finished chapter in Russian and world history. However, the ruins of Soviet society continue to haunt the Russian body politic in profound ways. By examining parliamentary, street, and cultural politics, souvenirs, markets, and thinkers over a period of six months in Moscow, this book reflects on the significance of the ruins of the Soviet Union. These ruins include Soviet memorabilia, the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, Lenin look-alikes in Red Square, the Soviet Anthem, the former speech writer for Yuri Andropov, May Day and Victory Day celebrations, as well as the work of Soviet philosophers, like Evald Ilyenkov and Merab Mamardashvili, literary theorists like Valentin Voloshinov, developmental psychologists like Lev Vygotsky, and many others. It analyzes the significance of these ruins using the work of the above Soviet thinkers and Western theorists, as well as contemporary Russian commentators, like Alexander Buzgalin and Vadim Mezhuev. This interdisciplinary analysis should be of interest to scholars in various fields, including Political Science, Cultural Studies, and Social Theory.

Join us on Saturday, September 20th, when our very special guest will be Pernille Ripp. Pernille is the creator of the fabulous "Global Read Aloud Project"" and she will be sharing her experiences with the project since it was created in 2010 and will tell us how our classes and students can get involved in the project for 2014 and which books are being featured this year. If your classes have participated in previous projects we'd love to have you join us and share your stories and project links.
What is the Global Read Aloud? The project was created in 2010 with a simple goal in mind; one book to connect the world. Now with four years under our belt and more than 200,000 connections made, we realize we are on to something larger than us so we look forward to continuing the global connections. The premise is simple; we pick a book to read aloud to our students during a set 6-week period and during that time we try to make as many global connections as possible. Each teacher decides how much time they would like to dedicate and how involved they would like to be. Some people choose to connect with just one class, while others go for as many as possible. The scope and depth of the project is up to you. In the past we have used Twitter, Skype, Edmodo, our wiki, email, regular mail, Kidblog, and any other tools we can think of to make these connections. Teachers get a community of other educators to do a global project with, hopefully inspiring them to continue these connections through the year.

LAS VEGAS • The shackles and blue prison garb seemed to weigh down O.J. Simpson as he returned to a Las Vegas courtroom on Monday to ask for a new trial in the armed robbery-kidnapping case that sent him to prison in 2008.
Looking grayer and heavier, the 65-year-old former football star and TV pitchman was flanked by guards as he nodded and raised his eyebrows to acknowledge people he recognized in the audience.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
A marshal had warned onlookers not to try to communicate with Simpson, and no words were exchanged.
Still, a close friend saw a flash of the old, magnetic Simpson personality.
"Not much muscle tone," observed Sherman White, a former NFL defensive lineman, teammate and friend of Simpson since they both played for the Buffalo Bills. "But you saw a little of the O.J. pizazz when he came in."
Simpson later conferred with his lawyers and listened intently to testimony from his daughter Arnelle Simpson and other witnesses.
Simpson, now more than four years into a minimum nine-year prison term, will be in court all week to claim that he had poor legal representation in the trial involving the gunpoint robbery of two sports memorabilia dealers in 2007 in a Las Vegas hotel room.
Simpson's drab appearance contrasted with the fancy clothing he wore during his acquittal in his historic, high-profile 1995 murder trial in Los Angeles. The suit he wore then is now part of the Newseum collection in Washington, D.C.
The courtroom on Monday was partly empty, and an overflow room with closed-circuit hookups wasn't needed.
Simpson hopes a new set of lawyers can persuade a judge that lawyer Yale Galanter, who represented him in the robbery case, had conflicted interests.
In a sworn statement outlining what he intends to say on the stand, Simpson said Galanter knew ahead of time about his plan to retrieve what he thought were personal mementoes from the memorabilia dealers in a casino hotel room.
Simpson also said Galanter never told him a plea deal was on the table.
Galanter was paid nearly $700,000 for Simpson's defense but had a personal interest in preventing himself from being identified as a witness to the crimes and misled Simpson so much that the former football star deserves a new trial, lawyers for Simpson claim.
Galanter, who is scheduled to testify Friday, has declined comment before his court appearance.
"To me, the claims are solid. I don't know how the court can't grant relief," said Patricia Palm, the Simpson appeals lawyer who produced a 94-page petition dissecting Galanter's promises, payments and performance in the trial that ended with a jury finding Simpson and a co-defendant guilty of 12 felonies.
Of the 22 allegations of conflict-of-interest and ineffective counsel that Palm raised, Clark County District Court Judge Linda Marie Bell has agreed to hear 19.
It was not clear whether Bell would rule immediately after the hearing.
Simpson maintains his plan was to take back what he expected would be family photos and personal belongings stolen from him after his 1995 "trial of the century" acquittal in the slaying of his wife and her friend in Los Angeles.
Simpson was later found liable for damages in a civil wrongful death lawsuit and ordered to pay $33.5 million to the families of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman.
In the Las Vegas case, Galanter blessed the plan involving family photos and personal belongings as within the law, as long as no one trespassed and no force was used, Simpson said.
The first witness on Monday was Dr. Norman Roitman, a Las Vegas psychiatrist who testified that Simpson's perception of what took place in the Palace Station hotel room might have been hampered by the effects of stress, lack of sleep and several vodka and cranberry juice cocktails Simpson consumed before the confrontation.Next Page >

Investigators say the deaths of an elderly couple in Mt. Juliet have been ruled a murder-suicide.
Betty Wilburn, 80, and Hubert Wilburn, 77, were found dead inside their home on the 1000 block of Weston Drive on Tuesday morning.
According to detectives, Hubert Wilburn shot his wife. Police say Betty Wilburn died of a single gunshot wound and that Hubert Wilburn died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
A neighbor said he spoke with Hubert Wilburn on Monday and said he believed the couple was struggling with health issues.
"Health problems and family issues just had him depressed and couldn't take it any more, I guess," Louis Barbeau said previously.
Barbeau had volunteered to take the Wilburns to a doctor's appointment Tuesday afternoon. He said he got a call Tuesday morning from the couple's son, who was concerned his parents weren't answering their phone.

A couple of those macros don't work.
If you try to cast a spell that has a gcd it will stop trying to cast anything after that (except spells off the gcd), even if the spell is on cooldown. So take the "super fun midair death" macro:
#show Frost Nova
/cast Frost Nova
/cast [mod:shift] Slow Fall
That will actually kill you too since you won't be able to cast slow fall with it (not to mention that slow fall is now a targeted ability). Try using this instead:
/cast [mod:shift,@player] Slow Fall; Frost Nova
And [flying] only relates to yourself (and only when your actually on a flying mount too, falling doesn't count as flying), so this macro:
#show Remove Curse
/cast [target=mouseover,noflying,nomounted,nodead,help] Remove Curse [target=mouseover,noflying,nomounted,nodead,harm] Counterspell; [flying,combat] Slow Fall
Will *not* cast Slow Fall on "an ally who is midair", it will simply cast slow fall on your current target (not mouseover) if you yourself is on a flying mount and off the ground (and in combat), thus dismounting you in midair if you allow spellcasts to dismount you when flying.

If I were a parent considering Peachtree Hope Charter School, I would be asking the board of directors why they chose to terminate the management contract with Sabis, which provides the management and curriculum for the Memorial Drive charter school.
Essentially, the decision means that the DeKalb school has to start from scratch in its academic blueprint, and there are real questions today whether it can recreate itself in time to reopen in August. The school's board of directors plans to meet with parents later this week to explain why they dumped Sabis and how the school plans to move forward.
But Peachtree Hope Charter School only has a few hours left today to submit an application to DeKalb County.
(Note: DeKalb sent me this note at 6 Monday evening: "No word on Peachtree Hope today. We're waiting until the a.m. to give them some more time." But then, the AJC reporter writing the news story on the school's plight sent me this note: Peachtree Hope filed a new application with DeKalb Schools late Monday, said Richard Andre, an attorney representing the school, which is expecting 700 students in the fall. The application is expected to be voted on in July at the local board meeting.)
Peachtree Hope was among 16 charter schools statewide stranded by a Georgia Supreme Court ruling in May invalidating the Georgia Charter Schools Commission and the schools it had approved. The schools scrambled to find local sponsorship and funding through boards of education, and Peachtree Hope was one of the lucky ones.
On June 13, the DeKalb Board of Education granted it a year waiver to remain open and funded while it worked on its application for a five-year county charter. But the DeKalb school board did so under the assumption that Sabis, a worldwide for-profit school management firm operating in 12 countries, was still in charge.
But Sabis told me today that it was notified that it was being kicked out of the school on June 3. The company provided a copy of the termination notice that was sent to them from the Lightmas & Delk law firm and it was dated June 3. A company official also told me that Sabis was surprised and disappointed at the termination. The official had been in Atlanta that week working with the board of directors to submit its charter application to DeKalb.
I have a call into Lonnie King, chairman of the Peachtree Hope board of directors., about the time line. I have not heard back from him but will add his comments.
(Peachtree Hope seems to have had a successful inaugural year under Sabis; 95 percent of the students were returning and a new grade was being added. As of now, the school expects to enroll 678 children in grades k-6 in August. But we haven't seen CRCT scores yet for the school in its first year.)
A few hours after seeking and winning its one-year extension from the DeKalb school board on June 13, Peachtree Hope notified DeKalb that it was no longer affiliated with Sabis, according to DeKalb spokesman Walter Woods.
"They alerted us the morning after the charter was approved. That changed the entire notion of the charter, and they are going to have to resubmit," said Woods today. "And the deadline for them to do so is today. If they give us something today, we will review that and put it in front of the board on July 11. "

We're spending a lot of time on the Charter Schools, aren't we? Ha! They represent such a miniscule element of the public school population. How do they merit so much attention on this blog? Four or five articles in the last four or five days? Hmm.

Parents who care, whether they are right or wrong about the merits of their charter schools. If you could capture the caring and apply it directly to educational outcomes, the children would have such an advantage. And maybe that's it–through charters, parents see a channel for their caring to have a more direct impact on outcomes for their children, or a way to avoid dilution by the not-caring of too many other parents.

I have been helping children who get caught up in the disciplinary cycle in Gwinnett for close to 10 years – I too have yet to meet a parent who does not care.

It's hard to believe that we could have such disastrous failure, as we have in some of our local systems, if they are all full of children whose parents care. .How would caring parents stand for it? Yet, in even the worst performing districts, where the public schools area a practical joke played on our children, the voters repeatedly elect gangs of idiots and the ethically compromised to their school boards. But all the parents care? Hard to believe.

You're equating caring to being an activist for your child. My parents cared about my education but they were not actively involved in it. Do I believe they cared? Yes but they weren't the type to take the time to go to PTA meetings or be actively involved as many parents now are. We were poor and thus not mobile. Caring involved making sure I went to school, did my homework, that I was prepared to go to school, and not get in trouble. Now many people find that to be lacking but it is showing they cared about what I was doing.
It's not hard to believe that parents care about their children's education. But caring and pushing themselves out of their comfort zone to do something about it are two wholly different things.

@Decatur mom
You don't meet the uncaring parents. That's the problem. They don't show up. I'm not overly in favor of charters, but that's a different discussion from the general apathy, it seems, of the majority of public school parents. It seems to me that the majority of parents are NOT overly involved with their children's education until something goes catywampus. As a parent and an educator, all I can say is that the time to get involved in your child's education is long before something goes wrong.
June 28th, 2011

Sometimes parents care, but in a way that is destructive for their children rather than helpful. In my children's high school a few years back, a teacher tried to remove a sleeping "student" from his classroom. The parent raised cain (her son was being "disrespected"), the now-indicted superintendent backed the parent, and the teacher left at the end of the year for another county. All of the children lost, including the dozing one. I don't know for sure but I wouldn't be surprised if that parent never showed for open houses and teacher conferences.
June 28th, 2011

This is going to be interesting. This school will have a lot to explain to the community if they are to make the case to parents that they are still a better choice than the public school. Yes there are some terrible public schools. But as someone who has taught in both public schools and a charter school, I have to say that some charter schools have a long way to go before they can criticize the public schools. Many charter schools are hiring unqualified teachers and administrators and wonder why kids are failing. High teacher turnover is also prevalent in many charter schools, leaving the kids to suffer. This thing called teaching is a profession. The charter school movement needs to take a page from the KIPP schools book and start paying teachers respectable wages, implementing research based practices and just using plain common sense. I am a parent who cares and a parent who advocates. That is why my children attend public school.

Joe Nathan Disseminates InformationPosted on February 29th, 2008 – 3:04 PM
By La Velle
I think Joe Nathan is tired of us asking him about his contract situation.
The Twins closer has a sign hanging over his clubhouse stall that reads: `Nothing to report.'
Nathan's agent, Dave Pepe, and the Twins have tried to hammer out a deal but the sides apparently aren't close. Pepe, when contacted today, reiterated that a deal gets tougher to do once the regular season starts.
You wonder if the Twins are approaching Nathan the way they approached Torii Hunter in that they may be reluctant to sign him to a deal longer than three years.
The Twins are stretching on the field as they prepare to face Dice-K, Big Papi and the Boston Red Sox. The Mets may be fined by the league for only bringing one regular on a recent road trip (the league wants at least four regulars on trips). But the Red Sox may deserve a bonus because Boof Bonser will face something close to an A-lineup:
1. Julio Lugo, 2. Dustin Pedroia. 3. Big Papi. 4. Manny Ramirez. 5. Mike Lowell. 6. Kevin Youkilis. 7. Jason Varitek, C. 8. Coco Crisp. 9. Bobby Kielty. Pitching:Dice-K.
Twins: 1. Span. 2. Kubel (DH). 3. Cuddy. 4. Morneau. 5. D.Y. 6. Red Dog. 7. Bushman. 8. LNP. 9. Everett. Pitching: Less of Boof.
Warning: This blog will switch to a new server at 4 p.m. and the migration won't be complete for several hours. I'll be unable to provide in-game details. Sorry for the inconvenience.

MUSC Student Government Association
SGA Allocations Fund
Description: The SGA sets aside a specific amount of money each year, the SGA Allocations Fund, to help support particular university-wide events/programs planned by MUSC student organizations. The process of applying for and potentially receiving these funds follows.
- SGA Allocations Fund will be allocated based on the timing and merits of each request.
- Due to the SGA's approval process, a funding request must be submitted at least (2) full SGA meetings (see online schedule of SGA meetings) prior to the date a decision on funding is needed. Additionally, if funding is approved, plan for a minimum of (2) weeks after a decision is rendered for the funds to be dispersed to your organization.
- Requests must be submitted on the SGA Allocations Fund Form that can be downloaded online by clicking here.
The event for which funds are requested must be described in detail along with an explanation of how the event will pertain to, and benefit, both the student organization and the MUSC student body.
Per the SGA Allocations Fund Form, a complete itemization of all related expenses and funding sources, including anticipated revenue from ticket sales, should be stated.
Funding requests should be delivered to Kevin Smuniewski, Office of Student Programs, firstname.lastname@example.com or call 843-792-2693.
- If the event involves the service of alcohol, MUSC's Policy for Student Alcoholic Beverage Serving must be followed and, accordingly, a completed Event Approval Form signed by either the sponsoring student organization's college's dean or the Director of Student Programs. The signed Event Approval Form must be submitted with the funding request form. Click here to download the Event Approval Form.
- A representative(s) from the requesting student organization should plan to be present for the first reading of their Funding Request and be prepared to answer any questions. You will be notified of this SGA meeting time upon submission of the Request Form.
- An SGA Executive Officer shall notify the individual submitting the SGA Allocations Fund Form of approval or denial of their request immediately following the SGA's decision.
- Upon approval of a request, a representative from the student organization should immediately contact a Student Programs staff member to facilitate the issuing of funds according to MUSC procurement policies. This will require specific documentation and is approximately a (2) week process.
- Within (2) weeks of the completion of the event for which SGA funds were received, a comprehensive Expense Report must be submitted to Kevin Smuniewski, Office of Student Programs, firstname.lastname@example.com or call 843-792-2693. Click here to download the Expense Report form.
- Student organizations may request any amount up to *50% of the total event cost. The SGA may vote to deny the request, approve the request in it's full amount or approve an amount less than that which is requested.
*If the event is educational in nature, an amount greater than 50% of the total cost may be requested. Additionally, if the SGA is asked and decides to officially co-sponsor the event, rather than simply financially support the event, an amount greater than 50% may be requested. A co-sponsored event means that the requesting student organization and the MUSC SGA would share not only the cost but also the promotion and management of an event.
- All events or activities supported by SGA funds must be advertised and open to participation by the entire MUSC student body. Furthermore, the participation fee must be the same for all MUSC students.
- According to State of South Carolina law, SGA funds may not be used to make donations of any kind. Accordingly, net revenues from events supported by SGA funds may not be donated unless the funds contributed by the SGA have been returned in full prior to the donation being made.
SGA funds cannot be used to pay dues or purchase individual memberships to professional organizations.
- A recognized group may only receive funds no more than two consecutive years.
Questions? Contact Kevin Smuniewski, Office of Student Programs, firstname.lastname@example.com, or call 843-792-2693.

Yvonne Strahovski on 24, Tickling Louis C.K., and Crying During the Dexter Finale
"I think I was an aggressive tickler."
Skip to content, or skip to search.
"I think I was an aggressive tickler."
How satisfying were the conclusions to 30 Rock, Allegiant, and other pop-culture staples?
Showtime wouldn't let them.
Dexter draws to a close. And we are angry at how bad it was.
Spoilers, duh.
Hi, Doakes!
One more episode left of Dexter to go. Shall we make some predictions?
Call it conclusion impossible.
Dexter, it really is time to say adios.
Two more episodes left in the series, and last night's ending caught us seriously by surprise.
The Brain Surgeon, revealed.
It doesn't feel like we're approaching the end of the series, and that's a bad thing.
Dexter's obsession with his old flame pulls him off his game.
This episode had a bit of everything — Dexter being funny, Dexter being awkward, Dexter wrapping someone in plastic.
Some songs are too iconic to reuse.
How fun is it to watch Charlotte Rampling each week?
She "blubbers" when she hears "Breathe Me."
Over and over, in ways subtle but mostly plain to see, Dr. Vogel continues her deft manipulation of the Morgan siblings.
Jennifer Carpenter can do more than curse.
In what's shaping up to be a fantastic end to the series, this is the best episode of the season so far.
So far, this season is all about the ladies in Dexter's life: the mysterious Dr. Vogel and the delirious Debra.
"Would you rather be ugly and not looked at?"
This is how the end begins. Dexter's final season kicked off last night.
Only twelve episodes left, folks.
We're going to miss that army green shirt.

The NDSU Development Foundation has signed a letter of intent with Scheels All Sports, Inc., for Scheels to purchase the Foundation's airplane.
"This is an exciting opportunity for the NDSU Development Foundation and for our prospective buyer, creating a win-win scenario for both parties," said Doug Mayo, president and CEO of the Development Foundation.
The Foundation has owned planes since 1972, and purchased this plane in 2007.The 2013 legislature passed a bill essentially requiring the NDSU Development Foundation to sell the plane by 2017.
"Out of respect for the legislature and their intentions, we're pleased to have this opportunity to sell the plane several years in advance of the legislative deadline," Mayo said.

Thick as a brick.
Alas a teenage daughter
Got in the family way,
Such they are the times
What more can you say.
It was getting near her time
But still she wanted out,
To the pub or just the pictures
She didn"t mind being stout.
Then one night it happened
While she was all alone,
Nature took Her course
She fumbled for the phone.
The time was nearly midnight
It was dad who was awoken
'Can you come and get me,
I think my waters broken.'
'Okay' shouts her dad
'tell me where you are,
You just say the place
I"ll go get the car."
He jumped up out of bed
Put slippers on his feet
'Where are you ringing from?'
'From my knickers to my feet.'
