It is known about tastes, as you know, it is difficult to argue. They, in particular, are not amenable to classification by social groups. The audience of readers of the TRV-hobby is also characteristic of pluralism. But still, no one has yet denied the rule “like this”.

Like many people my age, after the end of perestroika I stopped turning on the TV. Twice, like everyone else, I turned it on: 9/11 and Beslan. Meanwhile, a new, and non-state, digital television channel appeared. When regular broadcasting had not yet begun, the team kept showing us the preparation process, revealing the anatomy of self-creation. It was brilliantly staged, and then the channel began to work. One of the main slogans of “Rain” is an optimistic channel.

The Troitsky Option newspaper, as befits a cool publication, has its own permanent team of online trolls. These are special fans who seek out and memorize all our articles, columns and posts in LiveJournal in order to find at least something reprehensible in them and then suck it up on their blogs. I would like to formally thank these guys for their many years of dedicated service. Thanks to them, I had a wonderful vacation.

In the recently published report of the US National Science Council “Science and Engineering Indicators 2012” [1], one of the sections is entirely devoted to how society in the United States and around the world relates to science and the extent to which it has basic scientific knowledge. It takes up more than 50 pages, but there is a small summary characterizing the responses of US citizens [2].

Can an animal use an object that is not used in natural conditions as a tool and to which it is very inconvenient for it to manipulate? It turns out, maybe. Specialists of the Department of Cognitive Biology of the University of Vienna (Department of Cognitive Biology, University of Vienna) and the Institute of Etho -Lorenza (Konrad Lorenz Institute for Ethology) (Nestor Notabilis), and the bird took up the stick to get a treat.

On December 23, 2011, the blog of scientific journalist Ivan Sterligov published a message “Results of the elections in the Russian Academy of Sciences: Churovshchina and nationalists appear” ( http://blogs.strf.ru/blog/182.html ), in which he noted that from the oral announcement The voting results announced at the General Meeting on December 22 by RAS Academician Nikolai Fedorovich Myasoedov indicate that some errors were made during the calculations.

One of the brightest trends in recent times is the emergence of a large number of the so-called “open access magazines”, in which articles are available through the Internet, without any subscriptions, and authors of adopted articles pay for publication. Many traditional, paper magazines are also switched to such a scheme, and some offer a mixed model: articles of paid authors are laid out in open access, and the rest remain in access by subscription and in paper form.

It’s amazing how, using the example of one detail of the human body, we can tell about the almost two-thousand-year history of the development of scientific, religious and political ideas of mankind. David Friedman did this using the example of a body that for many centuries has attracted the attention of extraordinary researchers, unnerved religious leaders, forced politicians to make fateful decisions and brought considerable profits to the relevant business industries. In his book “Penis.

That the article by Vladimir Putin on the national question does not contain answers, even noted the head of his election headquarters Stanislav Govorukhin (in discussion on the first television channel "In context").

As is known, under certain conditions, various spatiotemporal structures can form in initially disordered dissipative systems - Benard cells, Liesegang rings, snowflake stars or wind waves on the water surface. Their appearance indicates the instability of a more homogeneous state of the system, in which these structures are absent. The state of Russian society, of which the scientific community is a part, cannot now be called completely stable either.
