Featured in the film Neptune's Daughter, the song won an Oscar in 1950 and remained a popular standard for decades. That was the dialectical thesis.
Then came the antithesis. More recently, "Baby, It's Cold Outside" has been judged to be retrograde, inappropriate, even an ode to date rape.
Comment: It's a shame that traditional roles are looked upon as antiquated and oppressive in the current paradigm, as they undoubtedly served a useful function. Regardless of whether or not they were perfect (likely not), it seems modern humans are eager to throw the baby out with the bathwater, recasting women in the role of men and men as useless and 'toxic'; an unsustainable re-imagining if there ever was one.

French President Emmanuel Macron seems to hope that weariness will lead the "yellow vests" protestors to give up, but there seems no sign of it yet. On the contrary, the "yellow vests" seem dedicated to bringing him down. Pictured: "Yellow vests" protesters on December 15, 2018 in Paris, France.
French President Emmanuel Macron seems to hope that weariness will lead the "yellow vests" protestors to give up, but there seems no sign of it yet. On the contrary, the "yellow vests" seem dedicated to bringing him down. Pictured: "Yellow vests" protesters on December 15, 2018 in Paris, France.
- French officials evidently understand that the terrorists are engaged in a long war and that it will be difficult to stop them; so they seem to have given in. These officials are no doubt aware that young French Muslims are being radicalized in increasing numbers. The response, however, has been to strengthen Muslim institutions in France.
- At the time President Macron was speaking, one of his emissaries was in Morocco to sign the UN Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration, which defines immigration as "beneficial" for the host countries. Under it, signatory states pledge to "strengthen migrant-inclusive service delivery systems."
- A group of retired generals published an open letter, saying that signing the Global Compact was a further step towards "the abandonment of national sovereignty" and noted that "80% of the French population think that immigration must be halted or regulated drastically".
- The author Éric Zemmour described the "yellow vests" revolt as the result of the "despair of people who feel humiliated, forgotten, dispossessed of their own country by the decisions of a contemptuous caste".
Comment: What is clear at this point is how completely out of touch Macron is with the people he supposedly democratically governs. If he continues to outright ignore their demands, refusing to give any concessions, living in a bubble of his own hubris, it's likely the Yellow Vests will get their wish and he'll be hoisted on his own petard.

Just one in four Americans want strict government limits on the use of biometric technology - with opposition shrinking further if such technology would help law enforcement, reduce shoplifting, or speed up security screenings at the airport, according to a national poll conducted last month by the Center for Data Innovation. Opposition to biometric surveillance decreases with age, and women are more accepting of the technology than men, the poll results show.

Peter Boghossian, an assistant professor of philosophy at Portland State University in Oregon, led a trio of scholars last year who submitted to leading publications what they called "intentionally broken" papers on gender, race and sexuality. Several of the absurd pieces were published.
Now, Portland State has initiated disciplinary action against Mr. Boghossian for what it calls a breach of the institution's ethical guidelines.
Among the renowned international scholars urging Portland State to forgo such action is University of Oxford professor emeritus Richard Dawkins, who compared PSU administrators to the duplicitous pigs in George Orwell's "Animal Farm."
Comment: Universities are now fighting in favor of corrupt scholarship. How much clearer can it get that US 'higher learning' institutions have become corrupt and dogmatic centers for the indoctrination of post-modern ideology?

The wall, a key talking point for Trump throughout the campaign, has been decried by leaders in the Democrat party as anti-American and immoral, among other things.
But their opposition to the wall and embrace of looser immigration laws seems to be a new development.

It comes after last month's disruption at Gatwick Airport which saw thousands of people stranded when drones were sighted.
The spokeswoman said:
"We continue to work closely with the Met Police to respond to reports of drones at Heathrow. Based on standard operating procedures, working with Air Traffic Control and the Met Police, we have resumed departures out of Heathrow following a short suspension. We continue to monitor this situation and apologise to any passengers that were affected by this disruption."The Metropolitan Police said they received reports of a drone sighting near Heathrow at about 17:05 GMT.
Comment: Nothing convinces the purchase of anti-drone equipment better than hovering drones over the airports and the liability issues for thousands of people at any given time.

Police in the Xicheng district of the city said in a statement on Weibo that they had detained a 49-year-old male suspect surnamed Jia, who was a former repair worker at the school.
Jia was a migrant worker from Heilongjiang province whose contract had ended at the start of the year, and police suspect that the attack was motivated by anger at having his employment terminated.
Another former maintenance worker at the school surnamed Liang suggested that the suspect was angry because he had been let go at the end of his probation period.
The attack happened at Xuanwu Normal Experimental Affiliated Number One Primary School just after 11.15am.
Several of the pupils were taken to the intensive care unit of the nearby Xuanwu Hospital following the attack.
Comment: This 'transgender' indoctrination of children is the product of some sick minds.
