Contemporary art | Contemporary ideas
Cyril LE VAN
"Men are born free and equal and that's the last time they are."
Having grown up in the Paris suburbs, my thinking is nourished for over ten years, the idea that the artist should not seek to magnify not the real but to question the violence of the relationship between society and individuals.
From this, the social marginalization, economic and cultural exclusion or are my areas of experimentation.
My questions is embodied in the reproduction of symbols such as mattresses shelters for the homeless, food retailers such as catering premises, laundromat as a place of health, but also clothing "acronym" as social marker and identity of population in search of a mark ("mark" is the passport to social integration in a group you want).
These symbols are the subject of facilities, usually at full size, made basically of sculptures made of sheets printed.
There are two levels of reading my work, the first purely visual aesthetic deliberately at odds with the violence of words. The object is perfectly reproduced, close to the real I call the "ready made MADE." It aimed to attract the attention of the viewer. The idea is to include all public and then address the second reading, that's questioning: "What comes (for example) an installation reproducing eight machines of a laundromat across one?". "Who are those who use them and why." This willingness to accompany the viewer about the artist is a social and voluntary approach, "I see, I understand, I am interested, I dialogue." Talk of exclusion in my work comes first by a desire not to exclude "close the loop".
Works are photographic sculptures printed on plastic sheets, paper, fabric, assembled in three dimensions.

Australia's alternative NBN plan: some taxpayer-friendly questions
How does the coalition propose to extract 25Mbps performance from hybrid fibre coax, when many users report it seldom achieves that speed and is unreliable?
DOCSIS 3.0 - I'm on rock solid 30Mbps, and if I wanted to I could play another tenner a month for 100Mbps. More than enough for simultaneously running a large trading platform whilst running a skype conference call, streaming the cricket to my laptop via Foxtel GO and listening to the TMS feed from the UK and downloading (ahem) linux image torrents.
what I'd like is for the cable to be available wholesale in order to introduce some price competition - $90/month is ridiculous. And for less techtopian nonsense and trick cyclism from the reg...
Oz Bank share price dives after reveal of IBM/Oracle plan
NAB was actually down 1.87%.
CBA was -1.7%, WBC was -2.12%
I really don't think that this had anything to do with the well trailed IT update, more to do with UBS calling the top in the Banks yesterday morning.
Turnbull says NBN Co could offer FTTN with optional fibre-for-cash
prohibitively expensive for most australians? We're spending c 38bn on it - that's $1500/pop. BT offer 76mpbs down/19up for 35quid a month. http://business.bt.com/broadband-and-internet/fibre-optic-broadband/pricing-and-plans/
I'm paying Telstra the equivalent of 70 quid a month for 30 down/1 up. Even if you halve the 'up to' bt numbers, that's still good enough for almost any usage. The quicker you can get a reasonably priced FTTN network up and running, the better for competition, and the sooner the NBN will get a return on investment.
If you are one of the 15 people in australia who need a 1GBps connection, why not pay to have it run from the local pit?
China's rare earth policy backs Apple into a corner
It's not getting worse. Molycorp and Lynas are both expected to bring large amounts of REO into production within the year, and the price of a basket of rare earth oxide prices (for use outside china) published by Lynas has fallen 75% from its August 2011 peak.
Whilst it is still double the intra-china price, added supply from the many projects due to come on line over the next 3 years should sort that out.

Full-body scanner blind to bomb parts
Not quite
The English speaker was the MD of a body scanner firm. He said in an airport environment the scanee would have had to remove his jacket (which contained the thermite in a pocket), AND there would have been a profile scan - the scanner works by detecting contrasts between the body and concealed objects - the side pocket wasn't on the guy's body from the scanner's perspective so no contrast. He did however say that it couldn't detect anything in the mouth.
Of course thermite (Iron oxide and aluminium) would have been detected by the metal scanner that everyone has to pass through.
So the conclusion to draw is that if you can conceal enough thermite in your mouth (whilst retaining the ability to speak) and manage to avoid passing through the metal detectors, you might be able to make a small hole in an aircraft.

The resolver model is based around a specific part of the ICM survey. ICM ask respondents how the voted in the last election, and then how they will vote in the next election. This gives a much better idea of how voters move in between parties from election to election, and therefore provides a much better template on a per constituency basis for analysing the potential result.

With Foundations within Sculpture and Fine Art disciplines, I take relevance and influence from Duchamp, Michael Landy and Hans Stofer.
My Interests lie between the boarders of the definition of what a craft orientated object is as well an art piece.
My work fuses traditional craft practice with art theory and is applied within both contexts. This in turn creates a fusion that provides a humorous, revealing and thought provoking experience.
My practice ranges from extravagant window displays to uniquely commissioned wooden objects, I draw, run workshops and collaborate to create high quality and thought-provoking experiential objects and images for the public to enjoy.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- The Wisconsin Supreme Court has rejected the appeal of a man who argued police violated his constitutional rights by seizing his vehicle and planting a GPS device.
The court in a 6-1 decision Wednesday upheld the appeals court ruling denying James Brereton's motion to suppress evidence obtained through monitoring by the GPS device.
Brereton argues that his Fourth Amendment rights prohibiting unreasonable seizures were violated through installation of the device.
But the court rejects his arguments, saying seizure of the car was supported by probable cause that it was involved in a crime and was therefore allowed under the Fourth Amendment.
Police stopped the vehicle on Oct. 5, 2007, after it was seen in the area that a string of burglaries were reported in Rock and Walworth counties.

There are conflicting reports as to whether Angelina Jolie has given birth.
"Entertainment Tonight" said Jolie has delivered her twins in France. The story was posted on the TV show's Web site and cited a "source close to the actress." It even went as far as to give the babies' names.
But People.com said Jolie's "birth rumors" are not true. The story quotes "a rep for the actress" as saying that Jolie "has not given birth."
Representatives for Jolie and father-to-be Brad Pitt haven't responded to phone and e-mail requests from The Associated Press.

"I thought I had ordered my Christmas cards in plenty of time to get them and send them out before the Holiday Season. I was told they would arrive by Dec. 17th. When they still had not arrived on Dec. 20th and I saw they were still in production, I emailed the customer service dept. of Shutterfly. They were very helpful. Sped up my card production and had them shipped priority. Then came the glitch with Fed Ex. The cards were in MN the next day but didn't arrive at our house for four days. It was disappointing that I wasn't able to send my Holiday greeting cards before Christmas, but I was so pleased with the quality and Shutterfly's persistence to help me out and make me happy that it didn't matter. So our family and friends received our Christmas cards on the 5th day of Christmas. I'm sure they were able to spend more time looking at the beautiful quality of the card and enjoy it more than right before Christmas. I was very pleased. Thank you Shutterfly. Next year I will get them to you earlier."
"The personalized Christmas Cards, with choice of layout on the inside and out, are a perfect way to share Christmas greetings for friends and family. The cards have a professional look and the photo choices help personalize the card. I have used Shutterfly personalized Christmas Cards in the past and most who recieve them have told me that my cards are "Keepers". I have received numerous compliments on the cards. Friends and Family tell me they always look forward to my Christmas cards."
"We ordered this picture card for the Grandparents but after I saw it, I decided to keep it and have the kids give it to me for Christmas.
The image quality is great, colours are true and bold. It's easy to upload, import and edit your photos. Ordering is simple and shipping was reasonable."
"I loved the way the card turned out with a clear picture of my family on the front of the card. However, when I was making up the card on your site, I was unable to put something on the back, like made from....No matter what I tried, the words "No Translation Available." came up and that is what is on the back of the card. I wish it was blank instead,"
"Just got my cards from Shutterfly and I love them! Everything about this transaction was simple, except for the waiting, because I knew the cards would be great. The quality of the cardstock & envelopes is fantastic. I cannot wait to send these so my family & friends can enjoy them, too!"
Celebrate this Christmas season with Shutterfly's heartfelt and personalized Christmas cards and holiday cards. Add a festive touch to your gifts with our Christmas address labels and Christmas gift tags. Shutterfly also offers a variety of business Christmas cards, religious Christmas Cards and photo Christmas cards.
Reviews for our Christmas Cards from our collection include
"I am very happy with our 2014 Christmas cards! This is our 1st experience w/Shutterfly & I'm thrilled! I used photo paper so it's exactly like a picture & the font I used on our 4x8 cards was 11 & 10 so it's easy to read on our cards. I chose pictures that were close-ups for the most part so it was easy to see who was in the picture but even the couple I chose that were a little further off were completely fine. Love these cards!"
"I ordered this not realizing it was foil stamped, and was afraid that the foil would be too obnoxious or sparkly. It is not. You can definitely see a "foil" effect, but it doesn't detract from the photo. The colors of the photo are rich and vibrant and it looks great!"
"Our cards arrived less than two weeks after ordering them, with plenty of time to sign them and mail them out. They are absolutely beautiful. We love them. The font size is a little larger than we expected and it looks a little off but nothing to get too concerned about. We are very pleased. I love using Shutterfly. It's easy to make calendars, cards, and books - and I'm not exactly technically savvy. I appreciate the polite and prompt email responses I get when asking questions, too. Love, love, love this website!"
"This card was absolutely beautiful; the colors were brilliant and the display of pictures were creative and perfect. I could not of had a more fantastic card. I made this card because I went to Ireland and wanted to select my favorite photos. My friend went to Ireland and so I am giving it to her for a gift for Christmas. She can frame it because it is a standard 5x7. Gifts don't have to be expensive when they are from Shutterfly!"

By Bad Man | Follow on Twitter
While I'll never actually read Before Watchmen, principally because I've seen enough prequels to know that they rarely add anything to the original material and are usually void of any sort of tension (as we know all of the main characters will survive). And we also know most of the character beats from the original.
It's not because of DC's treatment of original writer Alan Moore, that's an entirely different argument, but I just don't want to read these and detract in any way from the original (which still stands as one of the best bits of comics literature ever written).
With that said I can't lie and say I'm not impressed by the creators on board. The artists and writers are a stunning ensemble, and while I doubt they'll add much to the Watchmen mythos bar some sumptuous art, the panels and designs alone are primarily why some people are buying this series.
Here's some of the designs below for you to devour. Fan or detractor, it's hard to say they don't look great:

Changes are relatively minor for the 2013 Edge after Ford's mid-size crossover got a new engine choice the year prior. For 2013, all-wheel drive can now be had as an option on even base SE models, and the 6-speed SelectShift automatic transmission gets a sport mode.
A 240-horsepower EcoBoost 2.0-liter engine is added to the 2012 Edge's powertrain list. Offered on the SE, SEL and Limited trims, the 4-cylinder EcoBoost engine features turbocharging and gasoline direct injection to achieve an EPA estimated 21 mpg city and 30 mpg highway. EcoBoost-equipped Edge models also feature active grille shutters, which close under certain conditions to improve aerodynamics. Also new is the availability of a passenger's 10-way power seat with power lumbar support.
For 2011, the Edge gets a major makeover, sporting an aggressive oversized three-bar chrome grille, new front fenders and a more modern interior. The 3.5-liter V6 sees a big jump in horsepower to 285, while the Sport trim's 3.7-liter engine boosts output to 305 horsepower. New options include Intelligent Access with push-button start, adaptive cruise control and a new driver interface system called MyFord Touch.
For 2010, the Edge Sport gets new 20-inch wheels while a new Limited Interior Appearance Package is added to the options list. Refinements to this year's drivetrain result in improved city/highway fuel economy.
A new trim, the Edge Sport, joins the lineup for 2009. The Sport features available 22-inch polished aluminum wheels, an eight-piece factory installed body kit and special exterior paint choices.
New options for 2008 include the SYNC hands-free communications and entertainment system, a power rear liftgate, voice-activated DVD navigation and two new packages: The Limited series and an interior Appearance Package featuring red leather seating with contrasting piping.
The all-new Edge crossover is stylish on the outside, comfortable on the inside and smooth, quiet and responsive on the road. Most importantly, the entire package is wrapped in an overall sense of quality and refinement that's sure to sway plenty of import-brand devotees.
As gasoline prices remain high, more and more buyers are coming to the conclusion that sometimes less is more. If you don't need 3-row seating or a big V8 engine, a vehicle like the 2014 Ford Edge may solve most of your transportation problems. With its available turbocharged EcoBoost 4-cylinder engine, the Edge returns up to 30 mpg on the highway while sacrificing nothing in the way of power and acceleration. Those who have to live with winter's worst will appreciate the available all-wheel drive (AWD) and powerful V6, while enthusiast drivers will delight at the Sport model. However, because the Edge design is starting to age, it faces stiff competition from the likes of the Toyota Highlander, Hyundai Santa Fe Sport and Jeep Grand Cherokee.

I am finishing a book on "glamour" in modernist literature that looks at glamour as an aesthetic category specific to the twentieth century. My work considers the glamorization of the primitive, same-sex desire, and death in the early decades of the century and proposes a lineage that explains the effects of glamour on its object and viewing subject. I am particularly interested in those authors who pursue the contemporary sublime in their work, including Virginia Woolf, D.H. Lawrence, Jean Rhys, William Faulkner and Wallace Stevens. Her theoretical interests include visual culture, post-structuralism and the various identity studies (queer, gender, race) that emerge from it. I teach courses in modernism and other twentieth-century literatures. My graduate courses have included, or will include, a consideration of the "nothing" that drives modernism ("Regarding Nothing"), twentieth-century expressions of the sublime ("Sublime Variations"), and the technological framing of the primitive in the early twentieth century ("Modern Primitive").
Denise Cruz
In my research, I am primarily interested in questioning categorical boundaries of gender, sexuality, geography, and chronology that have determined the ways in with we study imperial intersections within Asian/American, ethnic American, and, more broadly, other U.S. literatures. As a scholar trained in literary studies, I am also fascinated by narrative strategies--in works of literature and in the critical narratives that we use to discuss them. fusing these interests, my current project, Transpacific Femininities, theorizes productions of mixed-race or mixed-culture women as the center of Filipina/o nationalist literature. This archival study examines some of the first English-language works produced by Filipina/os who traveled between the U.S. and Phillippines, held graduate-level degrees from U.S. institutions, and published in both countries from the 1920s-1050s. Through comparative, transpacific reading practices, I destabilize categories formerly conceived by critics as mutually exclusive: pre-1965 Asian/American literature, transnational feminism, and literary cultural nationalism.
I carry over these broader interests in comparative work in my course offerings, which focus on topics ranging from the literatures of empire, comparative ethnic American and postcolonial studies, and transnational Asian/American literature.
Jonathan Elmer
My work has largely focused on the ways in which history, form, and affect converge in literary and cultural phenomena. In Reading at the Social Limit: Affect, Mass Culture, and Edgar Allan Poe, I argued that Poe was an prescient theorist of mass cultural dynamics in America, and that he was a prescient theorist because he was an imaginative practitionerparticipation in American mass culture proceeding (stealth thesis) as a theory of that participation. I am currently completing a manuscript called On Lingering and Being Last: Race and Sovereignty from Hobbes to Melville. It's a book about Anglophone representations of non-European sovereign figures, and how these representations allow Anglo-Americans to express, repress, project, or otherwise disavow, contradictions between the ideals of sovereign legitimacy and liberal individualism. As with the book on Poe, I am concerned here with the ways in which affective statespity, admiration, contemptat once structure and are structured by the convergences of form and history falling under labels like "genre," "trope," "topos," etc. I am especially keen in this book to interrogate an influential line of thought in contemporary left social theory according to which sovereign violence and humanitarianism share a genealogy. I explore some contemporary versions of this argument in a forthcoming article called "Torture and Hyperbole."
My work is informed by a variety of theoretical approaches (deconstruction, psychoanalysis, systems theory, phenomenology, new historicism, science studies) and I regularly teach theory, philosophy, and criticism at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. I have published essays on trauma theory, systems theory, contemporary film, race, and the concept of the archive, and I have taught graduate seminars in topics ranging from "Race and Sovereignty" to "Melville and Criticism" to "Lacan." My undergraduate teaching ranges from early American literature, nineteenth-century American literature, to special topics courses on "The 1930's" and "Black Humor in 20 th-Century American Literature." I have directed or served on dissertations with topics like "Law and Native American Autobiography," "The Phenomenology of Possession in Antebellum American Literature," "Naturalism and Schizoanalysis," "Naturalism, Modernism, and Urban Narrative," "Modernism and Waste," and "Film Theory and Affect."
I am involved in various interdisciplinary groups, and have run a Seminar of Science, Language, and Culture that has invited N. Katherine Hayles, Susann Oyama, Andy Clark, Brian Massumi and others to campus for Colloquia. I am a longstanding member both of the American Studies Program, and the Center for Eighteenth-Century Studies, and I have regularly convened or sponsored more or less informal reading group projects, ("Geography and Urbanism," "The 18 th-Century Black Atlantic," "The Phenomenologies of Husserl and Merleau-Ponty").
Jennifer Fleissner
I focus my research on American literature and culture of the 19th and 20th centuries, with an emphasis on the turn of the century. My current projects include "Novel Appetites: Eating and Meaning in Modernizing America," which looks at eating as a means of self-formation and boundary crossing in various writers from this transitional era (such as James, Chesnutt, Cahan, and Yezierska), and "Maladies of the Will," a more temporally sprawling endeavor that asks about the pathologies and uncertainties that result from modernity's dual conceptualization of persons as wholly self-willing and as unprecedentedly determined by internal and external forces. I have two forthcoming articles related to this latter project: "Obsessional Modernity: The 'Institutionalization of Doubt,'" coming out in Critical Inquiry, which looks at the flurry of representations of obsessive-compulsive behavior in recent fiction, TV, and film in relation both to historical depictions of these symptoms and to the humanities/sciences divide; and "Poe's Imp, Melville's Formula," in the journal Fictions, a reading of ideés fixes in Poe's "Imp of the Perverse" and Melville's "Bartleby."
I also have an ongoing interest in women as emblems of modernity (a major theme of my first book, Women, Compulsion, Modernity: The Moment of American Naturalism [U. of Chicago Press 2004]) and I have a couple of pieces coming out on this subject as well. "The Biological Clock: Wharton, Naturalism, and the Temporality of Womanhood," to appear in American Literature, is part of an ongoing investigation into figures of technologized women in the modern era; and a contribution to the Blackwell Companion to American Fiction, 1900-1950 will focus on the modern woman's story as it takes shape in often neglected "middlebrow" American writers from this era such as Edna Ferber, Robert Grant, Jessie Fauset, Sinclair Lewis, Sherwood Anderson, Booth Tarkington, and Zona Gale.
Back in the day, I also published a lot of record reviews in such venues as Spin, The Village Voice, The Boston Phoenix, San Francisco Bay Guardian, and Minneapolis Citypages.
Susan Gubar
For the most part, I work in two related areas of research. On the one hand, I keep up with feminist criticism and theory. Sandra Gilbert and I are working on the third edition of the Norton Anthology of Literature by Women, and we are also co-editing a new Norton Reader of Criticism and Theory. I've also written a sort of revision of Virginia Woolf's A Room of One's Own: what would Virginia Woolf have made of the current situation of women? This is a question I try to answer in my book Rooms of Our Own. On the other hand, I also remain interested in issues related to the Holocaust. After the publication of Poetry After Auschwitz, I continue to write essays and teach courses on the impact of the Shoah on the cultures we inhabit.
Paul Gutjahr
At its core, my work has centered on the issue of influence. My primary research area concerns the historical production, dissemination and reception of various printed texts (a field that has come to be known as History of the Book studies), an interest motivated most fundamentally by a desire to understand how printed material functions as an agent of influence. How do books and other forms of printed material persuade, threaten, cajole, incite to action? How does reading material help shape ideas which drive individual and corporate behavior? In a more focused way, I am interested in the intersection between print and religion. Much of my own work deals with the power of print in various religious contexts.
In my research, I am currently at work on two longer projects. First, I have been doing extensive work in contemporary American religious publishing, where I have been examining how several religious communities – most notably the Mormons and the Jehovah Witnesses continue to innovate in areas of printed communication in order to form and frame their religious communities. I have done quite a bit of writing recently on religion and print in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Second, I am working on a biographical project concerning the nineteenth-century Princeton Theologian Charles Hodge. Here again, I am interested in the issue of influence and how single individuals are able to exercise immense influence upon the societies in which they live. Using the work of the sociologist Randall Collins in part, I am interested in tracing Hodge's influence not only through the massive amount of printed material he produced, but through the over 3000 students he taught during his lifetime, many of whom became important leaders in a wide variety of American institutions and settings.
My teaching is diverse, but at the graduate level I have recently taught seminars in antebellum American popular literature and studies in the theory and methods of history of the book scholarship. For more information about me and my work, please visit my website.

While I use some of my time trying to figure out issues of sexual and social modernity, much of my current concerns have hovered around U.S. urbanism and urbanity. My first book, Queering the Underworld: Slumming, Literature, and the Undoing of Lesbian and Gay History (University of Chicago Press, 2007), tracked how modern artists and writers tweaked the standard formulas of "city mysteries" or "slumming" literatures in order to undermine the genre's promise of subcultural revelation. Here I brought together an assortment of pieces by Jane Addams, Willa Cather, Richard Bruce Nugent, Carl Van Vechten, Djuna Barnes, and Wallace Thurman to explore how each refused the modern will to sexual knowledge regarding emergent U.S. underworlds. My new project, Another Country: The Cultural Politics of Queer Anti-Urbanism (New York University Press, under contract) tackles a complementary metropolitan narrativethe rural-to-urban flight to the city. It charts how U.S.-based queer artists wield what I call "rural stylistics" in order to fashion critiques against lesbian and gay metro-norms. Across decades and media, these stylistics include the anti-urbanities of 1970s journals by radical faeries and rural lesbian-separatists; the non-metronormative aesthetics of modernists such as Cather, Charles Demuth, and James Weldon Johnson; the southern backwardness of queer photographers such as Alabama-based artist Michael Meads; the fashion critiques of queer of color performance artist Sharon Bridgforth; and the shared critical rusticities of a few early twenty-first century graphic novels.
I've found that this research often bleeds into the undergraduate classrooms that I organize around special topics such as "Voyeurs/Vices/Vogues," "Masculinities and American Modernisms," and "Sex, Gender, and Modern American Literatures." It also crops up in several upper-level graduate seminars that I have conducted under titles ranging from "Sexologies" to "Regional U.S. Sexualities." And it has appearedor, better, informedsome recent editorial work on "Reconceiving Regional Modernisms" as well as a new critical edition of Ralph Werther's 1918 sexological memoir, Autobiography of an Androgyne (Rutgers University Press, 2008).
George Hutchinson
My focus for the past fifteen years has been on American modernism and African American literature, although I started out as an American Renaissance scholar and have never abandoned my first love, Walt Whitman. I teach courses in modern American poetry, African American literature, interracial literature, modern American literature, and the Harlem Renaissance. My second book, The Harlem Renaissance in Black and White, is a large-scale intellectual and cultural history of the interplay between American cultural nationalism, pragmatist philosophy, modernist anthropology, modernist magazine and book publishing, and the formation of an African American literary field. More provocatively, it takes aim at the tendency to scapegoat interracial relationships or suppress the history of their contribution to American and African American modernisms in order to reveal how the color line continues to order American intellectual culture. In 2006, I published a "biography of the color line" in the form of a life of Nella Larsen and her world, as well as of the current culture of the color line in the institutions of knowledge and criticism that have held her hostage. "To write the life of Nella Larsen," I argue, "is to write a biography of color line culture by way of what that culture hides." I am also editing The Cambridge Companion to the Harlem Renaissance and co-editing books on Whitman and Black America, and on African American literature and editorial theory.
Christoph Irmscher
I started out as a modernist, with a book on role-playing and masks in the poetry of T. S. Eliot, Ezra Pound, Wallace Stevens, and William Carlos Williams. I was then very under the spell of the literary anthropology of Helmuth Plessner, most particularly the notion thatsince we are what we make of ourselvesour possibilities for being different from the norm (Plessner's word for this was "eccentricity") are sheer endless. I am still attracted to Plessner's theoryespecially when we think of it as powerful antidote to cultural orthodoxy and nationalism. Nations have to be capable of imagining themselves "otherwise," as the philosopher Richard Kearney has said, and I have always been drawn to hybrid, bicultural, multilingual and sometimes marginalized figures such as Louis Agassiz, John James Audubon, and (lately) Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, the first white male to be kicked out of the canon, a poet who spoke nine languages fluently and was able to read perhaps a dozen more. I'm also fascinated by Steven Shapin's insight that the "cultural dopes," the hard-working practitioners of culture, might be more important to study than the "isolated knowers who fabricate culture out of thin air."
My The Poetics of Natural History (1999) revives a largely neglected body of work by 19th century writers and artists, with a special interest in the intersections between textual and visual representations of American nature. My recent books Longfellow Redux (2006; paperback 2008) and Public Poet, Private Man (published by Harvards Houghton Library) offer a provocative cultural re-reading of America's most popular and (today) most neglected poet. The method I use is an eclectic mix of cultural studies, History of the Book, and translation studies, combined with a profound commitment to accessible prose, instilled in me by my revered postdoctoral advisor, Daniel Aaron.
One of my other interests is editing – see my Library of America edition of John James Audubon's Writings and Drawings, due out soon in a second edition, and a new Audubon edition, on which I am collaborating with the staff of the Field Museum in Chicago. In a future life, I would like to be able to edit the complete diaries of Annie Fields. On the IU campus, I am closely attached to the Lilly Library, one of the finest rare books libraries in the world and a boundless repository of sources also for the Americanist. I look forward to introducing graduate students to the delights of working with manuscripts and rare books.
Lawrence Buell's version of ecocriticism – a form of Plessnerian "eccentricity" that questions the centrality of the human subject to representations of naturehas crucially shaped my own understanding of nature writing in both the United States and Canada. The most recent outcome of that side is an innovative new anthology I have co-edited with my colleague Alan Braddock at Temple University, A Keener Perception: Ecocritical Essays on American Art History (forthcoming in 2008), the first sustained attempt to apply ecocritical thought to the history of American art. For the last four years, I have also been working on a book, under contract with the University of Virginia Press, about the nineteenth-century anti-Darwinist, Swiss-born Louis Agassiz, which also seeks to understand the beginnings of graduate instruction as well as popular science writing in this country. In addition, I have been writing, jointly with Professor E. M. Kroller of the University of British Columbia, a book about an Ontario-based, influential family of scientists and writers, the McIlwraiths.
De Witt Douglas Kilgore
My general field is twentieth century American literature and culture. I am particularly concerned with exploring the political (utopian) hopes expressed by our society through its projects in science and technology. Race, as both a social and an analytic category, stands for what is most often at stake in the histories I engage and the readings I produce. My first book, Astrofuturism: Science, Race and Visions of Utopia in Space, is an incisive engagement with the science writing and science fiction produced by the modern spaceflight movement. As a history it takes seriously the (sometimes progressive) hopes of those scientists and engineers who wrote the space age into being as a great cultural project. As a critique it turns a cold eye on those narratives of disciplined futurism to which I, as an ordinary native of the 1960's and '70's, was (and still am) vulnerable. My general research agenda is to recoup the liberatory potential of sciences and narratives ordinarily prescribed as closed to non-white, non-male, non-middle-class people. (Have I covered it all? By no means, the exclusions one might consider are finite but unbounded. Race, however, is a commodious term in which much else is implicated).
My current project is concerned with philosophical and social narratives emerging from SETI (search for extraterrestrial intelligence), a relatively new science founded by astronomers and astrophysicists in the late 1950s. SETI science brings my research down to earth, so to speak, focusing on the expressive work of writer-scientists who explore the universe from home, building both new knowledge and the audiences for it. This work follows the general thrust of Astrofuturism in that it exploits my fascination with the process of how new sciences emerge that speak from and to the cultural circumstances and political imperatives of our time. However, my concern in this work is less with the making of the future (even though this is never far away) and more with the genesis, structure and meaning of the evolutionary narratives we employ to explain its emergence. If we can sustain disciplined arguments in the existence of life and intelligence elsewhere then how do we search for it and why? What effect would it have on us to encounter an actually alien race, a species unrelated to our biology and history, who could talk (and, perhaps answer) back? On what basis could we understand one another? How would such a discovery effect our persistent claims of privilege in cultural and natural life? Would human beings mature, even follow the lead of older, wiser beings to some blessed age? Would we fail instead, having been removed as the pinnacle of creation, falling into extinction? As it argues for its place SETI asks these questions and proposes extrapolations worthy of thought. It should not be surprising that the hypothetical scenarios produced within SETI are a consequence and, in some cases, a self-conscious dissent from the legacy of terrestrial exploration. Therefore, it is the historical tradition of race and empire that sets the stage for SETI and sparks my engagement with this interaction between science and literature.
My teaching is divided between my core area of science and literature and more traditional courses in twentieth century American literature. Currently I am teaching a Ph. D. seminar on the function and implications of evolutionary narrative in robotics, artificial intelligence and SETI. Recent graduate courses include general surveys in science fiction, fantasy and utopian literature. These classes are as much about British initiatives in these genres as they are about American traditions. In speculative literatures, as in science, national borders exist but are not able to contain influence and exchange. For undergraduates I teach classes in twentieth century American and African-American fiction, mostly around urban literature and culture. And, naturally, courses in science fiction and science fiction cinema. Future plans include courses in African American writing in science fiction and fantasy, African American film, visual culture (i.e. comic books and graphic novels), science writing, and American Studies.

Located at the intersection of performance studies, queer studies, and American studies, my research and teaching are broadly concerned with the ways that social relations are imagined and reimagined through American performance practices. I am currently completing a book about the relationship between cabaret performance and African American literature in the 1920s and 1930s. This book looks at how various writers and performers used the cabaret to critique the sexual and racial normativity that organized the Harlem Renaissance and Progressive-era politics of racial uplift. I am also interested in modern and contemporary American drama as a reflexive institution of American modernity, one that allows performers, writers, and directors to use theatrical innovation and experimentation to address and redress the social conditions of modern American life. I have published articles on nightlife and the Harlem Renaissance, the history of American cabaret, and contemporary theatre and performance. I regularly teach courses on modern and contemporary American drama, dramatic theory, queer performance, and performance studies.

If you have tile or hardwood floor you want this attachment. Also great for under sofas hard to reach areas - coffee and side tables. Very pleased!
This is a very good accessory for your Dyson. However, do not be surprised if you get frustrated... The head has a mind on its own at times. It is not as easy to vacuum under furniture as they make it sound. You have to get on your knees, twist the handle to keep the head flat on the floor.
I really like this added feature! I have used this tool quite a bit since I received it. It is not only good for under the beds, but also for getting into tight spots under furniture and corners. Thank you Dyson for designing it!
Great tool! Works great - fit my Dyson perfectly. I don't have anything bad to say about it. I wish it was part of the original vacuum package. If you have hard floors of any kind, you need this tool.
If you are buying just one Dyson attachment, this is the one to get! I am happy with all the attachments I purchased from Overstock, but this Flat Out head tool is amazing. Without moving china cabinets, beds, bedside stands, etc. etc. this tool gets any amazing amount of dust without much effort at all! I use it on my carpeted stairs as well. Certainly worth the money to complete your Dyson upright vacuum purchase.
Satisfied overall with this tool. Sometimes difficult to direct. Would be nicer if it had an extra rotary bush for cleaning stairs.
if you own a Dyson, you need this flathead tool. It's the only way you will be able to vacuum underneath beds and furniture.
Perfect for use with the Animal canister I bought form a another shopping channel. works on hard wood floors. Allowing me to get under beds couches with out moving these heavy items. Comes with a adapter so I believe it would work with any of the Dyson vacs

Melon drizzled with balsamic vinegar
"Foods with a high water content keep us feeling full so we eat less, and few natural foods have more water than melon," says Ansel. One cup is around 90 percent water and has only about 45 calories. The addition of balsamic vinegar helps activate pepsin, a digestive enzyme that breaks down proteins into amino acids.

Through her tears, she spoke about her son's intellectual disability and explained that her husband will not accept him because of his condition, "because in my country, the belief is that we did something wrong ... our son's condition is a curse."
Read Whole Story
My experience as a woman in sports and my relationship with Amy have both taught me so much about seeing the value of different, whether or not society is ready to acknowledge or embrace it.
I have been involved in sports, like track, cross-country and soccer for a long time because I enjoy playing them. But when I was growing up, I never felt like part of any team or group. I always felt like a loser, just because I was different.
As a girl who has accomplished things that many didn't think were possible, I know that people can be wrong when they judge someone else just because they are different.
As Syrian forces reportedly drop poison rain on their own people, we need to send a message to these bullies of the world that there ARE lines that should not be crossed. We need to stand up for the victims, because we are the United States of America.
The political landscape is rife with talk of "fixing problems," "overhauling ailing systems" and "taking care of our children and our children's children." And yet, what do those doing all this stand for? Where's the action? We've heard the words; where are the deeds?

American Idol Fans Petition For Pia Toscano Return, Demand Stefano Langone Leave Competitionby Free Britney at . Comments
Irate American Idol fans are bombarding the show and Fox after the elimination of Pia Toscano, demanding that the singer be allowed back on this week.
To make room for her, they also demand Stefano Langone remove himself from Idol, since, not to put too fine a point on it, he sucks and has no shot.
They've reached out to him in an effort to plead this case.
Their VOTES, which actually determine the results of this reality TV competition show, could have ensured this last week, of course. Details.
American Idol insiders say that hundred of fans have been begging Fox to halt the grave injustice of kicking their girl off the show, and to bend the rules.
The fans' message is simple. Stefano has no chance and should be removed now as a sacrificial lamb so that the more talented Pia Toscano can return.
Nothing like this has happened before on Idol, and no way it's going to in this case, you have to admire their dedication to Pia (albeit a week too late).
Idol already instituted the judges' save last season, too, for just such an occasion. Too bad J. Lo, RJ and Steve blew it on Casey Abrams weeks earlier.
Pia is talented and the record deal she already has is all she needs. (She can;t confirm at this point based on some of the Idol rules.) This year we have a pretty talented group overall. As for Stephano-- leave the guy alone. It's not his fault that Pia did not get the votes to stay. Stephano needs some guidance and help with performance issues, but the guy can sing and is in tune more than most of the remaining contestants. A stupid petition to bring a contestant back because some griping fans are unhappy? Ridiculous!
I was one of those men in a bar voting for Pia. All contestants are realy good. How does one choose.
The Pia's of Idol will never make it as long as AT&T does not put a limit on the number of texts the Teenie girls get. It's so obvious they are voting for the cutest guy, not the talent. Dancing with the Stars needs to give them direction on voting. They have a better system. If it's any consellation, remember when Daughtry was eliminated early in the show? Look where he is now Pia. Keep going girlfriend- you've got the talent.
Well, I would love to see those results that they never show, it's always a record vote but no show, Ryan should let the fans across the world see those results, cause I think Pia got robed of her moment of fame, Bring Pia back I say
I find it hard to believe america decided Pia was not worthy of the American Idol title...She is by far the best singer the show has ever had and that includes Carrie Underwood. Pia I hope your reading this...you deserve better and your career will soar without the title. In fact you will probably do better! You go girl...we love you here in Florida!
I agree with Tom Hanks - Pia Off the show - I'm done watching!! It's not a singing competition - it's a little girls (who's the cutest guy contest)!!! I think their jealousy of her being absolutely Gorgeous and Perfect did't help either!! Cockey ?! I watched every Idol show and never found a sweeter girl then Pia. She had way too much class for that group. On the other hand, I'm not sure I even believe this whole voting thing - Someone was out to sign her right away!!
For me, d result is fair and correct so u dont need to petition d results, and dont let Stefano to be out beside that, that is not his fault its an actual results. So, Stefano is also talented and have a good voice. So, im proud that Stefano was saved and still in d competition. Thanks God and good luck to all d contestants and im still very loyal to American Idol' i like all the remaining contestant and u must proud all of them. Thats a good results.
Good luck Pia! It is unfortunate that you didn't get enough votes. Chalk it up to "when one door closes, another (possibly even better) one opens." You have a beautiful voice.
Very hard for pia fr accept d result 'coz she too much confident of herself that shes going to win but remember this is a votation, nobody is safe even if u are good singer. So leave stefano continue d competion, he is also good singer.
I think u dont need to insult or embarass d person to leave the competition, thats not her fault its a votation and leave stefano to continue d American Idol, hes also a good singer and for Pia accept d truth that u were eliminated already no need to write a petition. Good luck to all singers and i love American Idol without Pia.

Stay up-to-date with KAKE News:
The recent killings of two teachers are uncomfortable reminders that education can be a risky profession.
In Nevada, middle school math teacher Michael Landsberry was shot on a basketball court by a 12-year-old, who then killed himself.
In Massachusetts, high school math teacher Colleen Ritzer was attacked inside a school bathroom. A 14-year-old is charged.
Experts say the phenomenon of student-on-teacher violence is too often ignored.
Dr. Dorothy Espelage of the University of Illinois recently led a national task force on the issue. The task force found that little has been done to try to understand or prevent these attacks.
A task force survey from 2011 found that 80 percent of teachers reported being intimidated, harassed, assaulted or otherwise victimized at least once during the previous year.
