well, I am so thankful that the News-Press has Lanny Ebenstein and Terry Tyler to write editorials..why doesn't Dipper pen one sometime?? I mean Don, you could tell us all your thoughts on God, cause I'd really like to meet her..
seriously, we have Lanny cooing about the latest scores by "sub groups" at Santa Barbara Jr High and how they beat the white guys at Goleta Valley Jr High in state wide tests...
I really get sick when dumbass adults reduce education, esp for kids, to some test scores...it's just stupid ..and to add insult to injury, Ebenstein is trying to tell us, using words like "socioeconomic diversity"..ie poor vs rich kids, that the Mexicans are finally learning how to habla English!!
listen kids, don't listen to Lanny, he's a moron who bought too many houses up north during the real estate bubble, and then lost them to foreclosure..and was busted for allowing one house to operate as code-challenged pothouse..his neighbors sued him as a nuisance landlord, and they WON!!
and of course Wendy keeps saying "there's no story here" about Lanny's woes, which is why the News-Press didn't cover the issues of their own editorial writer! gee, I thought it was a good story!
I'm certain that Lanny is a racist...having done research into eugenics...Lanny tried to tell us that whites are smarter than blacks and rolled the rant into a "study" where he embraces genetic diversity using stereotypes to explain why blacks are dumber than whites...it's genetic!!
he wrote the piece with a guy named Bruce Hahn
“To intentionally overlook the influence of group diversity on disease susceptibilities and treatment outcomes is to practice poor medicine,” Lahn and Ebenstein write in their Nature essay.
The solution, the authors argue, is to convince people to accept genetic diversity much as appreciation of cultural diversity has grown over recent decades. In the essay, Lahn and Ebenstein point out that “genetic diversity is a source of evolutionary resilience and adaptability.” In my chat with Lahn, he uses a more casual example to illustrate the importance of genetic differences.
“I think it would be horrible if everybody started with the exact same genes as Einstein,” Lahn said. “He was a violin player, but there probably wouldn’t be hip-hop, there wouldn’t be great athletes. I don’t think Einstein would be a great politician. Who’s going to write the novels?”
