Tuesday Rule 5
Have a wonderful day!
'Assuming I did not botch the task, by the time this posts I will have been dead via suicide for several hours...'
Will H. Moore, a professor of political science at Arizona State, took his life last week, and, most dramatically, scheduled a blog post to go live a couple of hours after he planned to complete the deed.
His blog's still up (search "Will Moore blog" if you're up for reading it).
I cribbed the opening quotation from his scheduled post from Inside Higher Ed, "Aftermath of a Professor's Suicide: A death this week leads to renewed discussions about academics and mental health."

We saw low 70s today in coastal L.A. and Orange County, but that might be a short reprieve from the heat.

James J. Rawls, Chief Red Fox Is Dead
Rawls' Indians of California: The Changing Image is good. I'm a couple of chapters invested. It reads casually, like an entry-level textbook, and is interesting and informative.
Hence, let me recommend his second book, James J. Rawls, Chief Red Fox Is Dead: A History of Native Americans Since 1945.
I have no doubt this one's a pleasure to read as well.
(I still have much more on California's Indians to post, so stay tuned --- and thanks for your support.)

Wheaton College Student Killed at 'Hammer Throw' Track and Field Event (VIDEO)
Dang, you gotta keep your bearings man!
You could get killed out there, and this dude did. He got hit in the head.
At CNN, "Student killed at track and field event: A 19-year-old college student died after being hit in the head while standing near a hammer throw event."

French Political Parties Unify Against Le Pen: 'This Is Deadly Serious Now'
The French are forming the "Republican Front" against the National Front, as I predicted earlier.
Following-up from yesterday, "'It is worth underlining that this is the first time in modern French history that neither of the mainstream centre-right or centre-left parties of government that have governed France since the second world war have qualified for the second round of a presidential election...'"
At the New York Times:

Debbie Schlussel is Psycho Scum
I thought this woman died.
Seriously, I haven't heard of her in years, thinking that she'd dropped off this mortal coil.
She needs to drop off, and fast.
Apparently Hannity has issued a rapid and blistering denial and denunciation.
At NYDN, via Memeorandum, "Former Fox News contributor Debbie Schlussel claims host Sean Hannity invited her back to his hotel room."

James Fenimore Cooper, The Last of the Mohicans
I'm about a third of the way through this book.
At Amazon, James Fenimore Cooper, The Last of the Mohicans.
I had a copy on my shelf years ago, but never read it. But since Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz excoriates the novel with a most-certainly unsurpassed hatred, I thought I'd go ahead and power it down. I can see why it remains one of the greatest of American classics. Cooper's a fantastic writer. The building excitement of so many of the dramatic scenes truly earns whatever historic praise he's been afforded. Indeed, I think I'll read some of the others in the pentology, The Deerslayer, most likely, to start.

Bernie Sanders Wants Democrats to Focus on Economic Populism, Not Social Justice Cultural Marxism (VIDEO)
Following-up from Friday, "What Defines a Democrat?"
Here's more background on the conflict, at Politico, "DNC rally with anti-abortion candidate fuels backlash." And from Melissa McEwan, at Shakesville, "Bernie Sanders, My Autonomy Is Not Negotiable." (Via Memeorandum.) (Ms. Melissa probably gives the perfect argument for the left's social just position. Economic issues just aren't as important as social issues.)
I have to admit I still get a kick out of Bernie, even though he's a doctrinaire Marxist. Frankly, I love him taking it to the radical left's social justice warriors, hammering 'em on the very things that have caused the political obliteration of the Democrats.
Here's his interview on this morning's Face the Nation:

That is well worth underlining. The mainstream political establishment is bankrupt. My only sense is that this Macron dude is also bankrupt, and he'll just bury France in the socialist dead end left over from François Hollande.
At the Guardian U.K., "French election: Emmanuel Macron and Marine Le Pen estimated through to second round – live - Independent centrist Macron estimated to have taken 23.7% of vote with Front National leader Le Pen on 21.7%; official results to follow."
And at Blazing Cat Fur, "France faces its own EU referendum as far-right leader Marine Le Pen, who supports an exit, and Europhile Emmanuel Macron split the first-round vote to go head to head in presidential elections."
