My mind has recently been perplexing over the fact that a lot of my old muckers on the Left are stuck in a narrow ideological time-warp. Melanie Phillips outlined her journey and her escape from the Left and from woke Feminism in an interview recently where she describes it as a passage from a fantasy world to reality and the real world. Leftist utopian idealism has no truck any longer with the real world of science, biology, human nature – common sense as any sensible person would recognise it. Everywhere you look on the Left the thinking is full of social constructionist theories paraded as fact and the whole agenda is now riven with ludicrous contradictions.

L.A.’s criminal underclass has only just realized that the county’s Covid-mandated outdoor dining lends itself well to grab ’n’ go robberies (amazing the revelation didn’t occur earlier, but low IQ leads to terrible R&D). The MO is simple: Case the patrons from the sidewalk—look for purses, watches, wallets on tables. Then just reach over the divider, swipe, and run! We’ve had several such robberies over the past three weeks, the culprits fitting the same racial profile (“extremely not Norwegian”).

A federal court requested the U.S. Department of Health and Humans Services (HHS) release more information pertaining to the purchase of organs harvested from aborted human fetuses, according to a Monday Judicial Watch press release.

“Documents previously uncovered in this lawsuit show that the federal government demanded the purchased fetal organs be ‘fresh and never frozen,’” the Judicial Watch press release said.

He might now be one of the most powerful men in global media, but I find whenever I see a photograph of former British deputy PM Nick Clegg, Orwell’s quote about everyone getting the face they deserve by 50 comes to mind.

Now 54, the remnants of the boyish idealist are still just about there, but the eyes to me are ledgers of too much unhappy compromise — deadened, I always assume, by the principles he felt forced by David Cameron to sacrifice for personal advancement, and by the amazing decision to see out the remaining years of a career spent failing upwards as Mark Zuckerberg’s lavishly remunerated PR lickspittle.

For a decade and more, Clegg positioned himself as the good guy of British politics — radiating sixth-form actor star power at every opportunity. Now he spins for Facebook, a mega-corporation that in the UK last year paid £28 million ($38.9 million) of tax on revenues of £1.6 billion ($2.2 billion), and whose CEO, Zuckerberg, still flatly refuses to present himself for scrutiny by the UK Parliament on issues that include data harvesting.

“I have never called Lincoln a racist,” says Eric Foner, one of the nation’s preeminent historians on Lincoln and the Civil War.

“He shared some of the prejudices of his time. Was Lincoln an anti-racist? No not really. Was he an egalitarian in the modern sense? No. Race was not a major concern of Lincoln. He didn’t think about race about very much. To ask if he’s a racist is the wrong question. And if you ask the wrong question, you’re going to get the wrong answer.”

As, indeed, they do.

Archie’s Title

Status in the royal family is governed by Letters Patent issued by King George V in 1917. Prior to that time, it was governed by Letters Patent issued by Queen Victoria, by which children of the monarch and children of the monarch’s sons were Royal Highness and Prince of the United Kingdom, as was the eldest son of the eldest son of the Prince of Wales; descendants of the monarch beyond that relationship were Highness and Prince.

George V kept things the same for Royal Highnesses but altered the situation for outlying descendants in the male like and their children, who were now treated as the children of dukes (“Lord X”/”Lady X”).

Under that system the Duke of Cambridge’s children were “Lord Louis of Cambridge” and “Lady Charlotte of Cambridge”, with the eldest some George being Prince George of Cambridge and Royal Highness. The Queen altered that by giving all of the Cambridge children the titles of Prince/ss and Royal Highness. No such exception was made for the Sussexes.

Under the existing system therefore, Archie is Lord Archie of Sussex and holds by courtesy his father’s secondary title of Earl of Dumbarton. Any assertion to the contrary is a malignant lie. The Sussexes can choose not to use any of their titles, as Prince Edward and his wife did, and most everybody will respect that, but that doesn’t change the law. (The ‘Duchess of Cornwall’ is using the same trick; by law she is Princess of Wales, and if she wanted to claim that title, nobody could say her nay, although it would be a PR nightmare.)

When Charles becomes King (I predict that he will choose to be known as George VII because Charles is a badly tainted brand — what were Philip and Elizabeth thinking?), then Archie (and his incipient sister) will become (as a child of a monarch’s son) His Royal Highness Prince Archie of Sussex, and the ‘courtesy title’ will be dropped. The Sussexes can choose to use the titles or not, but it doesn’t depend on ‘skin color’ in any respect.

Meghan Markle could have been a real blessing to the royal family, but has chosen to be a chancre instead. Her performance, and Diana’s, demonstrate the wisdom of the royal family not straying too far from the reservation in picking spouses.

the term “engram” to designate the physical trace a memory must leave in the brain, like a footprint. Since then, neuroscientists have made progress in their hunt for exactly how our brains form memories. They have learned that specific brain cells activate as we form a memory and reactivate as we remember it, strengthening the connections among the neurons involved. That change ingrains the memory and lets us keep memories we recall more often, while others fade. But the precise physical alterations within our neurons that bring about these changes have been hard to pin down — until now.

For some years now, a Jewish baking practice has served as a kind of kitchen-based healing service, organized largely by women. Following the commandment in Deuteronomy that orders the removal of a small portion of dough and the donation of that piece to the priests, these home bakers separate a ball of dough, recite a blessing, and then—in the absence of bona fide priests—burn this “challah” offering. As they do so, they recite the names of those in need of healing. No one knows quite how this form of the ritual emerged, but for those who practice, it has a logic and a set of rules all its own.

Social justice activists have been arguing for some time that scientific societies and institutions need to address systemic sexism and racism in STEM disciplines. However, their rationale is often anything but scientific. For example, whenever percentages in faculty positions, test scores, or grant recipients in various disciplines do not match percentages of national average populations, racism or sexism is generally said to be the cause. This is in spite of the fact that no explicit examples of racism or sexism generally accompany the statistics. Correlation, after all, is not causation. Without some underlying mechanism or independent evidence to explain a correlation of observed outcomes with population statistics, inferring racism or sexism in academia as the cause is inappropriate.

One might have hoped for more rigor from the leadership of scientific societies and research institutions. Alas, this has not been the case. In the current climate, many have simply adopted popular rhetoric and the jargon of critical theory has begun to dominate communications by these institutions. Pandering and virtue signalling have begun to generate proactive initiatives by the highest levels of the scientific community, often replacing the focus on science itself. Here are a few examples from the past few weeks alone.

With all due respect to sauvignon blanc drinkers, New Zealand’s trendiest liquid export is something far sweeter than wine. Derived from the nectar of a native bush (leptospermum scoparium), manuka honey has stirred enthusiasm among health-conscious connoisseurs since the early ’80s, when a local scientist first confirmed that it possesses unique, antimicrobial properties. Now, the on-trend sweetener is finding mainstream appeal in the United States as a slightly more savory alternative to its domestic counterparts.

Many industries use heat-intensive processes that generally require the burning of fossil fuels, but a surprising green fuel alternative is emerging in the form of metal powders. Ground very fine, cheap iron powder burns readily at high temperatures, releasing energy as it oxidizes in a process that emits no carbon and produces easily collectable rust, or iron oxide, as its only emission.

That report merits much greater attention and consideration than it has thus far received.

On Friday’s CBS This Morning, co-host Anthony Mason brought on chief Washington correspondent Major Garrett to swoon over Joe Biden’s COVID speech. Mason highlighted that Biden introduced the topic of violence against Asian Americans and Garrett honored Biden for inserting that topic himself, wildly asserting that there is an “epidemic.”

The media constructed this narrative due to their loathing of Trump’s use of the term “China virus” so they could claim that he is racist and blame him for attacks on Asian Americans. Beware any time a reporter calls anything an “epidemic” that isn’t an outbreak of disease. Do we really need bad “epidemic” metaphors during a pandemic?

Portland, Oregon, has been the most politically violent city in the United States since Donald Trump was elected in 2016. Just a few days after the result, a peaceful protest against the incoming president turned into a riot when anarchists broke off from the main group and rampaged through the Pearl District, a renovated SoHo-like neighborhood adjacent to downtown packed with art galleries, loft apartments, bookstores, and restaurants. Vandals used baseball bats and rocks to break cars, plate glass windows, bus shelters, electrical boxes, and anything else that looked smashable.

The election-night mayhem was not an attack against Republican voters. Donald Trump received a paltry 7.5 percent of the vote in that precinct. It was an assault on the urban middle class and bourgeois society itself, and it was perceived as such by most people who lived there.

The hand-powered, 2,000-year-old device displayed the motion of the universe, predicting the movement of the five known planets, the phases of the moon and the solar and lunar eclipses. But quite how it achieved such impressive feats has proved fiendishly hard to untangle.

Now researchers at UCL believe they have solved the mystery – at least in part – and have set about reconstructing the device, gearwheels and all, to test whether their proposal works. If they can build a replica with modern machinery, they aim to do the same with techniques from antiquity.

The author of the paper, Dr. Erik Lentz, analyzed existing research and discovered gaps in previous ‘warp drive’ studies. Lentz noticed that there existed yet-to-be explored configurations of space-time curvature organized into ‘solitons’ that have the potential to solve the puzzle while being physically viable. A soliton – in this context also informally referred to as a ‘warp bubble’ – is a compact wave that maintains its shape and moves at constant velocity. Lentz derived the Einstein equations for unexplored soliton configurations (where the space-time metric’s shift vector components obey a hyperbolic relation), finding that the altered space-time geometries could be formed in a way that worked even with conventional energy sources. In essence, the new method uses the very structure of space and time arranged in a soliton to provide a solution to faster-than-light travel, which – unlike other research – would only need sources with positive energy densities. No “exotic” negative energy densities needed.

At a March 8 White House event to announce the nomination of two female generals to lead U.S. military combatant commands, President Joe Biden seemed to forget the name of Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and where Austin works. Since the theme of the president’s mental acuity is still associated with memes of former President Donald Trump, the media desperately wanted to forget this happened.
