Now, after today's outburst on Fox and Friends, terminated by a chagrined host who said, "we you know have other things to do", I was forced to revise my view.

The idea that teaching the darker sides of our history in academia led to Trump is absurd. It is precisely the people who got an education and learned the full view of history who were the *most* opposed to Trump and the most supportive of centrist politics, both center-left and center-right. College educated whites were the demographic that swung most strongly against Trump; it was the people who weren't as exposed to modern critical education who voted for him. Looking abroad, the countries that are most critical of their history, such as the defeated Axis powers of Germany and Japan, also seem relatively immune to the illiberalism sweeping other parts of the world. | nyt_comments |

Balzac had difficulty adapting to the rote style of learning at the school. As a result, he was frequently sent to the "alcove", a punishment cell reserved for disobedient students. (The janitor at the school, when asked later if he remembered Honoré, replied: "Remember M. Balzac? I should think I do! I had the honour of escorting him to the dungeon more than a hundred times!") Still, his time alone gave the boy ample freedom to read every book which came his way. | wikipedia |

The effort was released in May 1997 as the band's second album, The Colour and the Shape, which eventually cemented Foo Fighters as a staple of rock radio. The album spawned several hits, including "Everlong", "My Hero", and "Monkey Wrench". Just prior to the album's release, former Alanis Morissette drummer Taylor Hawkins joined the band on drums. The following September, Smear (a close friend of Jennifer Youngblood) left the band, citing a need to settle down following a lifetime of touring. Smear was subsequently replaced by Grohl's former Scream bandmate Franz Stahl. Stahl was kicked out of the band prior to recording of Foo Fighters' third album and was replaced by touring guitarist Chris Shiflett, who later became a full-fledged member during the recording of One by One. | wikipedia |

An affine connection on a manifold M is a connection on the frame bundle (principal bundle) of M (or equivalently, a connection on the tangent bundle (vector bundle) of M). A key aspect of the Cartan connection point of view is to elaborate this notion in the context of principal bundles (which could be called the "general or abstract theory of frames"). | wikipedia |

DeVos has no business running the Department of Education. She is the wife of a successful businessman who made his wealth from Amway. Nothing more nothing less. Her success is based on this, not her career record in education. I'm tired of seeing wealthy people who have no real experience heading up various Government Departments. She has a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Business Economics, never has been a teacher, or a school administrator. That's like hiring a beautician to do the job of a cardiologist! When is the public going to stop supporting politicians just because they have a wad of money? Get involved in politics at any level and you will find that many politicians do not operate under the fundamental premise of "serving your constituents." Rather they believe that they are elected to office based on their personal philosophy and ideas and somehow this aligns with public desire and opinion. They get into office and they stop (if they ever were) listening to their constituents as a whole and only are influenced by those who have the money and influence to drive their agenda and keep them in office. | nyt_comments |

The economic policies of the New Deal leaders were often aligned with ACLU goals, but social goals were not. In particular, movies were subject to a barrage of local ordinances banning screenings that were deemed immoral or obscene. Even public health films portraying pregnancy and birth were banned; as was Life magazine's April 11, 1938, issue which included photos of the birth process. The ACLU fought these bans, but did not prevail. | wikipedia |

I remember the days in which Kim Basinger was nothing more than a pretty face who adorned movies with typical characters of dumb Blondie,romantic interest or damsel in danger.But,everything changed when she won an Academy Award as Best Supporting Actress for her role in the excellent movie L.A. Confidential,and I think I was not the only one who was surprised by her solid performance.However,after that moment,her career did not follow the ideal path.Sure,the prestige she won thanks to that movie made her to participate on moderately prestigious movies (like People I Know or The Door in the Floor),but we have never seen her again on a substantial character.The movie While She Was Out does nothing to put her on that situation; and it is not only that her character is not too tasty,but also that the movie is really crappy.The screenplay from this movie could not be more hollow and basic.However,Basinger brings some conviction to her character,and that makes this poor movie to win a few points.This movie is full of clichés and generic villains.The work of director Susan Montford is truly disastrous for many reasons but mainly,because the movie never gets a good rhythm and tone.The ending from this movie is extremely ridiculous.I do not recommend While She Was Out at all.This film commits the capital sin of being boring. | imdb |
