After alarm, astronauts complete spacewalk
NASA astronauts at the International Space Station on Saturday completed a spacewalk that had been delayed after a false alarm woke the crews of the station and the visiting space shuttle Atlantis.
Earlier they had halted a body-conditioning sleepover in a low-pressure chamber on the station after a false depressurization alarm shut down ventilation fans.
The problem, which interrupted the sleep of crews on the station and the shuttle Atlantis for a second consecutive night, appeared to stem from a new Russian docking module that arrived at the station on Nov. 12.

Ohio State: The Week That Was
The Buckeyes punched a ticket to Pasadena with a thrilling 27-24 overtime win against the Iowa Hawkeyes at the Horseshoe in Columbus. Ohio State made the evening more nerve-wracking than its fans wanted, but in the end, coach Jim Tressel’s team secured the program’s first Rose Bowl trip in 13 years.
Ohio State led, 24-10, early in the fourth quarter, but a special-teams breakdown allowed a 99-yard kickoff return to the Hawkeyes, who pulled within seven points at 24-17. Several minutes later, a dropped interception by Buckeye cornerback Chimdi Chekwa gave Iowa a reprieve, and the opportunistic Hawkeyes took advantage, tying the score at 24-all on a touchdown pass with 2:42 left in regulation.

Antitrust Concerns Linger in Google Books Deal
revised Google Books settlement agreement may quiet international opponents, but it still gives Google a monopoly on commercializing out-of-print books where the copyrights are unclaimed and fails to protect consumer privacy, opponents said on Monday.
"We're at a cross roads," Internet Archive Director Brewster Kahle said during a panel late Monday on the Future of Books at the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. "Is it going to be a subscription life...where one or two companies own the distribution and presentation (rights) to these books?"
In response, Google Books Engineering Director Dan Clancy said: "This is just one of a panoply of choices that people will have in the future."Morehttp://news.cnet.com/8301-27080_3-10398995-245.html
