		<description><![CDATA[One interesting thing about this little protest: as it happened, they staged this particular protest on the exact same day the Canadian Association for Equality, on the exact same campus, was a lecture by Professor Miles Groth on the crisis for young men in education. Why is this significant? Well every single lecture promoted by the Canadian Association for Equality on that campus was subject to mass and sometimes violent protests by feminist activists. After they were publicly shamed by A Voice for Men and other sources for their outlandish behavior, and after CAFE was forced to pay for extra security for the Groth lecture, the protestors pulled a no-show and went to attack this poor English professor instead. It appears that hateful femifascists decided that attacking Men&#039;s Rights Activists was a losing game for them and decided to pick another target to draw media attention away instead. Guess they&#039;re getting a little smarter, this poor guy probably had no idea what was coming. I suspect they picked him primarily as a distraction.]]></description>

If there were any to report, they would be named.  If you know of a successful one (i.e. had any lasting effect on...anything at all, lasted for any measurable time period, whatever), let&#039;s hear it.


If not, his comment stands.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here&#039;s why, Sparky:  I want to see if Drakken can even identify some matriarchies.  The comment he&#039;s reporting as a devastating shutdown of a politically extreme professor is actually nothing of the sort, if he didn&#039;t actually have a valid comparison in mind. 

 
What was the intent of the emoticon?  Passive aggressive, or did it indicate that your comment was a joke and not to be taken seriously?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Herman Melville. Born August 1, 1819.
In 1837, his older brother helped him get a job as a &quot;boy&quot; on a New York ship bound for Liverpool... 
In 1841, he sailed from Fairhaven, MA, on the whaler Acushnet. He was later to comment that his life began that day. The vessel sailed around Cape Horn and traveled to the South Pacific. 
...he left the ship. ...For three weeks he lived among the Typee natives
Melville did not seem to be concerned about the consequences of leaving the Acushnet. He boarded an Australian whale ship, the Lucy Ann, bound for Tahiti; took part in a mutiny and was briefly jailed in the native Calabooza Beretanee. After release, he spent several months as beachcomber and island rover.
...On August 4, 1847 Melville married Elizabeth Shaw, daughter of Lemuel Shaw, the Chief Justice of the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court. The couple honeymooned in Canada and then moved into a house on Fourth avenue in New York City. In 1850, the couple moved to Massachusetts. They eventually had four children: two sons and two daughters.
Androgynous, no doubt. Effeminate. A real namby-pamby mummy&#039;s boy if there was one.]]></description>

I had a Poli Sci prof who told the entire class that Welfare (as in food stamps) was guaranteed by  our Founding Documents.  He then wondered aloud how Mixed race people feel when confronted by all &quot;these white people&quot; to which 3/4 of the class indicated  their partial Native heritage.  He then told the Osage chief&#039;s son that he was dumb for not being upset about the &quot;Washington Redskins&quot;.  This was at Oklahoma state.
