  Rutgers Says Students Must Be Vaccinated Before They Can Come to the Campus in Fall by aletho By Robert Wenzel | Target Liberty | March 26, 2021March 26, 2021 COVID authoritarianism has hit the university level. Rutgers Says Students Must Be Vaccinated Before They Can Come to the Campus in Fall, in New Jersey, announced Thursday that all students would need to be fully vaccinated against the coronavirus before they would be allowed to return to campus in the fall. “Adding COVID-19 vaccination to our student immunization requirements will help provide a safer and more robust college experience for our students,” said Jonathan Holloway, the president of Rutgers University, in a statement. Beginning in the fall, students will have to show “proof of vaccination” before moving into their dorm or attending in-person classes. According to the university, students may file for an exemption for medical or religious reasons. According to the New York Times, even with the new requirement, stude

Amanda Gorman Captures the Moment, in Verse - By Alexandra Alter

  Amanda Gorman Captures the Moment, in Verse By Alexandra Alter The youngest inaugural poet in U.S. history read “The Hill We Climb,” which she finished after the riot at the Capitol. “I’m not going to in any way gloss over what we’ve seen,” she says. Two weeks ago, the poet Amanda Gorman was struggling to finish a new work titled “The Hill We Climb.” She was feeling exhausted, and she worried she wasn’t up to the monumental task she faced: composing a poem about national unity to recite at President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s inauguration. “I had this huge thing, probably one of the most important things I’ll ever do in my career,” she said in an interview. “It was like, if I try to climb this mountain all at once, I’m just going to pass out.” Gorman managed to write a few lines a day and was about halfway through the poem on Jan. 6, when pro-Trump rioters stormed into the halls of Congress, some bearing weapons and Confederate flags. She stayed awake late into the night and finishe

The “Expert Consensus” Also Favored Alcohol Prohibition - By Jeffrey A. Tucker

  The “Expert Consensus” Also Favored Alcohol Prohibition by aletho By Jeffrey A. Tucker | American Institute for Economic Research | December 11, 2020 Most people today regard America’s experiment with alcohol prohibition as a national embarrassment, rightly repealed in 1933. So it will be with the closures and lockdowns of 2020, someday. In 1920, however, to be for the repeal of the prohibition that was passed took courage. You were arguing against prevailing opinion backed by celebratory scientists and exalted social thinkers. What you were saying flew in the face of “expert consensus.” There is an obvious analogy to Lockdowns 2020. My first inkling of this prohibition history came in reading transcripts of the then-famous Radio Priest James Gillis from the 1920s. He was against prohibiting alcohol production and sale on grounds that the social costs far outweighed the supposed benefits. What surprised me was the defensiveness of his comments. He had to assure his listeners that he

♫ Superstition ♫ - by/ jilldennison

♫ Superstition ♫ by/ jilldennison Folks, I've done it again!!!  Last year, I missed Stevie Wonder's birthday by a day ... his birthday is the 13th, and after I didn't play a Stevie Wonder song on that date, my dear friend Ellen took me to task, so I wished Mr. Wonder a 'Happy Birthday' on the 14th.  This year, though ... I've missed it by five days!!!  Ellen ... this is your fault, y'know!  Anyway, better late than never, they say, and since Stevie is in my top five favourites of all time, I cannot let his birthday go unnoticed. I dug around for one of his songs that I haven't played ... no small task, considering I have featured him 28 times since I started doing these music posts a couple of years ago.  But, I came up with one and, while it isn't in my top five favourites, I do like it.  The song made #1 in the U.S., #6 in Canada, and #11 in the UK This was intended for Jeff Beck, who was brought in to play some guitar parts on the album in e
