The school year has started and the “snowflake” rebellion of 2015 is anything but dead. Micro-aggressions, trigger warnings, and demands for “safe spaces” continue to dominate the campus news from coast to coast. As the university president who wrote the viral “This is Not a Day Care” op-ed, I have been called by the media in recent days with essentially this question: “Dr. Piper, okay – your “Not a Day Care” piece identified the problem, but what’s the solution?”

Citing so-called security concerns, the Department of Homeland Security is considering a special declaration to take control of the 2016 presidential elections.

DHS could declare the presidential campaign as part of the country's "critical infrastructure," thus justifying a take-over of the process.…

Hillary Clinton’s closest advisor Huma Abedin has finally separated from her husband Anthony Weiner over the latter’s latest “sexting” escapade. It seems that Mr. Weiner sent new photos of his, ahem, crotch to various females, including a Donald Trump supporter, who went public with what happened. The photo of the ex-congressman’s bulging pants also showed the couple’s infant son, which is apparently the proximate cause of Ms. Abedin’s decision to announce the separation.

The young “Frenchman” who stabbed a British woman and a dog to death at a hostel in Queensland appears to have been motivated at least in part by sexual obsession with the victim (the human victim, that is — not sure about the dog), in addition to the jihad aspect implied by “Allahu Akhbar”. If so, it makes this incident very similar to the murder of a Polish woman in a Reutlingen restaurant back in July. Perhaps the killer lusted after her, and fantasized that she was already his property, an infidel sex slave possessed by his right hand. Then, when she popped his testosterone-filled balloon, he went into full jihad mode to avenge his injured honor, just like the perp in Reutlingen.

Healing Ourselves
In an astonishing breakthrough, patients left paralysed by severe spinal cord injuries have recovered the ability to move their legs after training with an exoskeleton linked to their brain – with one even able to walk using two crutches.
Scientists developed the Walk Again Project, based in Sao Paulo, Brazil, thinking that they could enable paraplegics to move about using the exoskeleton controlled by their thoughts.
But they were surprised to discover that during the training, the eight patients all started to regain the sense of touch and movement below the injury to their spine.… researchers now believe that a few nerves survived and these were reactivated by the training, which may have rewired circuits in the brain.…

…The Palmdale School District initially told the seven-year-old student, identified as “C”, he could only share the Bible verses after the school bell rang and only at the school gate. After he and his family complied, the student was told he could only hand out notes on the public sidewalk far from the exit of the school.
Even though C and his family agreed to comply to the second directive, a Los Angeles Deputy Sheriff then came to the Zavalas family home and said C must stop sharing the notes because “someone might be offended,” according to Liberty Counsel, which agreed to represent the family against the school district.
…The censorship began after children at the Palmdale School District wanted C to share the Bible verses with them. Other children even begged C for copies of the verses, and even wanted his short Bible stories that provided contest (sic) for the verses. When one little girl told her teacher, “This is the most beautiful story I’ve ever seen,” school officials banned the notes from lunchtime distribution, citing separation of church and state.

Then, in desperation, they added copper sulfate to kill the algae, but the peroxide ate that up and made hydrogen sulfide as a by-product (the fart smell).

The American College of Pediatricians (ACP) has released a position paper denouncing popular approaches to transgender, declaring that the current protocol is founded upon “unscientific gender ideology,” which lacks any basis in real evidence.
The physicians argue that the assumption that gender dysphoria (GD)—a psychological condition in which people experience a marked incongruence between their experienced gender and their biological sex—is innate contradicts all relevant data and is based on ideology rather than science.…

Messages still couldn’t be sent as seamlessly as under normal conditions, but it was a useful workaround. …

Six men were arrested in Indonesia for plotting to launch a rocket attack against Singapore from an island near the city-state. No motive for the planned deed has yet been determined, but it is certain that the incident had nothing to do with Islam. Perhaps the men were lone wolves who were mentally ill, suffered from anomie, felt marginalized, and were bullied in school. And they may have been suddenly radicalized online.

According to the latest reports, the youngster who went on a stabbing spree in London yesterday is a “Norwegian”. Mainstream media outlets breathed a collective sigh of relief at being able to put that in their headlines. It’s only when you read down a ways that you discover the murderous youth was “of Somali origin”. However, since it has emerged that he is mentally ill, we know that his actions had nothing to do with Islam. He’s just a Norwegian loony, like Anders Behring Breivik. Except, of course, that we can’t figure out a motive for his attack — that will probably take months. He’s just a Viking berserker with an unusually dark suntan.
In other news, according to the Archbishop of Rouen, the last words of the priest who was halal-slaughtered in the church in Normandy were: “Be gone, Satan!” Surely he couldn’t possibly have been directing such hateful words at the misguided Algerian youth with the knife.

Sex and Politics
…The reality is that race and sex/gender are social constructs. The atom is a social construct. Matter and energy are social constructs. Cities are social constructs. Everything is a social construct, as we look through the glass darkly. But social constructs operate on various levels of clarity and distinctiveness and exhibit different levels of pliability and utility. Dalton’s atomic model is profoundly wrong. It has long been superseded by quantum physical models, which have the utility of making correct predictions, whatever their correspondence to reality on a metaphysical level might be. But the Daltonian model is still often implicitly the one introduced to children to allow them to gain some intuition as to the nature of how matter is constituted. In contrast, the metaphysical ideas of the ancients as to the material nature of the universe are both wrong, and, lacking in utility.
All models are wrong, but there are still superior and inferior models. Their measure is in how they correspond to, and predict, reality. Not how they correspond to our ethical judgements of how the universe should be.…

Hillary Clinton has taken huge quid-pro-quo contributions from rich people as she damns the influence of big money in politics. Trump cannot seem to find any big donors. He trashes crony capitalist insiders on the grounds that he used to be one himself.
Traditional politicians such as Mitt Romney were perfectly groomed and rarely appeared without tailored suits. Modernist politicians such as Obama like to be photographed on the golf links appearing young, hip and cool, wearing shades and polo shirts.
But Trump defies both traditional and nontraditional tastes by wearing loud, long ties, combing his dyed-yellow hair over a bald spot, and tanning his skin a strange orange hue.…

Yet helping them, doing good to the Christians in the Arab world, would require Israel overcoming her neighbors’ anti-Semitism, even of those Christians who will not ask for help because of their prejudices.
Arab Christians in America and abroad feel caught between Muslim interests on one side and Israeli interests on the other. They are bitter. They are a weak minority, always overlooked. Arab Christians have no power to negotiate or threaten, no money to buy arms, and no land to cultivate and build. Their bitterness makes them miss an important ally: Israel. As the genocide of Middle Eastern Christians continues, the only hope of an Arab Christian remnant—a remnant that would keep and pass on its beliefs, traditions, and customs—is through help from the state of Israel. It is the humanitarian thing to do….
