MSU’s inclusive language guide lets the Spartan off the hook
MSU’s inclusive language guide lets the Spartan off the hook - Jamie A. Hope"...Michigan State University, whose mascot is a war-mongering, child eugenics-practicing, slave-owning Spartan, created an inclusive guide of offensive words students, faculty and staff should avoid using.
Warning: The list is long, very long. However, there are some highlights worth noting...
- “Avoid references to religious imagery and language. Instead, Spartans should use expressions such as ‘wishing you a wonderful winter/spring break’ or ‘best wishes for the new year.’”
- Read it for yourself: The MSU Guide to Inclusive Language
- ...If you are offended by the terms “freshman” and “upperclassman,” do not fret. Michigan State now says to use the phrases “first-year” and “advanced,” because words that contain “man” are too sex-specific.
- It is also a good idea not to use the word “emeritus.” Replace with “emeritum.” The university still uses “emeritus” 10,000 times on its website, according to a search in reference to professors.
- American Indian and Native American are no longer culturally acceptable, according to the “powers that be” at MSU...You can also apply for a Native American scholarship at the college and engage in American Indian and Indigenous studies. Just don’t say the words when applying for the scholarship or requesting to join the class...

"In March 2021, The Telegraph was one of the first newspapers to imply a causal link between the jab and blood clots after Norwegian scientists suggested a possible mechanism.
On the day we published the story we received a threatening phone call from a senior official at the MHRA warning that The Telegraph would be banned from future briefings and press notices if we did not soften the news.

The Chicago Mayor’s Hat Trick of Dreadful Policies - Charles Lipson"When your city elects a mayor whose main job qualification is “organizer for the Chicago Teachers Union,” you get what you paid for, or rather what the powerful CTU paid for.
With Mayor Brandon Johnson, you get a special bonus, an unwelcome one.
His proposed policies are unworkable, unaffordable, and deeply unpopular in the city that elected him less than a year ago.
Three policies stand out for particular ridicule. Mayor Johnson wants to:

Ohio waits to see whether Republican governor will sign bill saving children from sterilizing drugs and genital mutilation | Blaze Media:
Ohioans are waiting to see whether their Republican governor is willing to risk unpopularity with the radical left by ratifying Republican state Rep. Gary Click's House Bill 68, which would uphold parental rights, protect girls' sports, and spare minors in the state from irreversible genital mutilations and sterilizing puberty blockers.
Gov. Mike DeWine has until Friday to make up his mind. A failure to either sign or veto the bill will mean the SAFE Act will go into effect immediately.
Propaganda was adopted and used extensively by the IPCC in accordance with its own written manifesto
Propaganda was adopted and used extensively by the IPCC in accordance with its own written manifesto - Bjørn K
- "...Changing the scale to imply a relationship is a classic misdirection and was practiced time and time again (CO2- Temperature, CO2-pH, CO2-Sea level, CO2-Ice volume, etc.)
- Restricting the scientific investigation to proving a connection to CO2 and admitting that its target audiences were politicians suggests a biased agenda.
- Proclamations of cataclysmic consequences are propaganda and not based on scientific facts.
- The data are insufficient to validate a current global warming trend or to support that minute increases in CO2 concentrations can cause global cataclysmic consequences...
The fact is―the earth is boringly healthy.

Mumbling actors, bad speakers or lazy listeners? Why everyone is watching TV with subtitles on | Television | The Guardian
Mumbling actors, bad speakers or lazy listeners? Why everyone is watching TV with subtitles on | Television | The Guardian"Subtitles aren’t just for the hard of hearing, with Netflix reporting 40% of its viewers regularly use them.
But do we just enjoy them or is there a more annoying reason?...
But if you’re switching subtitles on because you simply can’t make out what the actors are saying, it’s (probably) not your ears that are to blame.

But if you’re switching subtitles on because you simply can’t make out what the actors are saying, it’s (probably) not your ears that are to blame.
Hard-to-hear dialogue is a known issue in the industry...
- The problem starts on the movie set. In decades past, actors had to project loudly towards a fixed microphone. The advent of portable mics has allowed a shift towards a more intimate and naturalistic style of performance, where actors can speak more softly – or, some might say, mumble.
- It’s an approach to acting Sics says has been around for a long time now, but something he’s certainly noticed more in younger performers...

US Navy Loosens Personal Cellphone Use in Basic Training
US Navy Loosens Personal Cellphone Use in Basic Training:
Each of these bizarre and woke acts by branches of the armed services demonstrates that the military is more concerned with playing woke politics than it is with winning wars. This does not attract the kind of young men who raise flags over Iowa Jima.
Even if the introduction of cellphones to boot camp does not directly cause a degradation of discipline among other maladies to the Navy, the public perception of cellphones at boot camp may feed a general sense that our military is no longer a force that could storm Omaha Beach. This perception will surely accelerate a decline already endemic in the military.
Electricity Becoming Less Reliable DAVID STROM
Electricity Becoming Less Reliable DAVID STROM
...Last week, the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) – the body in charge of US and Canadian grid reliability – published its latest 10-year outlook, saying that “sharp increases in peak demand forecasts and the potential for higher generator retirements are raising concerns for electric reliability over the next 10 years”. The regulator is projecting electricity shortfalls in areas where legacy generator retirements are expected before enough replacements are built to meet rising demand.
In addition, there are risks that the future generation mix in some regions could fail to deliver the enough electricity to meet demand under “energy-constrained conditions” including periods of low wind output or sub-freezing temperatures which can disrupt gas supplies to power stations where infrastructure is insufficiently weather-proofed. It says most parts of the United States face blackout risks over the next 10 years.
