moreOpen Question: I'm Just giving up on my whole life?
Ok, Well let me just start off and tell you what's mainly troubling me;
I used to like this boy that goes to my school. Well Friday, March 5 we started talking and then Sunday, March 7 he texted me. Well I have never really knew him too well until Sunday night. So you know I'm 13 years old. Well whenever the boy texted me he was talking about he liked me and talking about he wants to finger me tommorw (Friday March 12) at the Skating Rink, I don't wanna do it. He is making people at school think that I like him but I dont (ex; writing my name on his face, changing my myspace status, etc). My family doesn't believe in blacks and whites going out, please no mean comments about that. By the way he is Black and I'm white. He wants to go wayyyyyyy to fast for me, he made a new album on my myspace with his name and he is putting pictures on there, changing my status, moving my top friends, etc. And tommorow he wants me to go to the skating rink and i dont want to. I just want my life to go back to normal where I'm excited about the weekends and I'm not scared to do what I use to think was fun. Also, my family is coming over to my house tommorw and they will tell my mom that I have pictures of blk boys on my myspace, and he keeps changing my status to things like: "Yaaa this (name) on (my name) myspace page, i love you sexy". I know that I'm going to get in trouble for it, I just can't find anyone to tell it too because I know they will tell, i really don't wanna get in trouble and I just want to cry till i die. Please give me some advice. :]

The Terribly Awkward Ferris Wheel Ride
It was not supposed to come to this. I was to supposed go with Charlie, Frankie goes with
Paddy and my Dad was the one who had to sit beside a stranger on the ferris wheel. I don’t know who to blame more, the flurry of people in line breaking my hold on Charlie and causing me to
stray away, or the fact that my dad sat beside Charlie, knowing that if he did that I would be
paired with a stranger. Being a shy, eight year old, insecure boy, this was in fact a nightmare,
going literally sky high, trapped on a metal two-man seat with someone I didn’t know.
Seated with me for the journey was the most bizarre man with whom I have ever come into
contact. He had dark, bushy, cartoon-like eyebrows, dry lips that lead into a cave of caramel
apple stained teeth. He was smothered in chocolate stains, and attached to his chin grew a wiry
beard. Though, who cares what a person looks like, right? As long as I felt comfortable beside
him and still managed to enjoy the ride then I would have absolutely nothing against him. But of
course, my bad luck at the fair went from losing twenty bucks playing unsuccessful carny games,
straight to the very rides I boarded.
At first, when my seat was moving slowly, then coming to a halt every five seconds to load up
on fresh passengers, I felt more and more uncomfortable as I kept getting further away from the
ground. I looked straight forward into the ferris wheel’s mechanism and clenched my hands
tightly on the hot, steel, condemning bar, which, in my mind at the time, sealed the deal that I had to sit there until the ride was over. It was hot even though the sun was orange and setting. The
day was gorgeous. There were the greenest fields and a calm river in the distance and the long,
purple clouds in the air looked like stretched, sugary candy floss. Smelling the aroma of
hamburgers and hotdogs, listening to the music of the Polar Express ride nearby, the orangish
pink of the sky, and the lingering taste of lemonade in my mouth almost put me in a euphoric
state, taking my mind off the stranger I was sitting beside.
When I turned to my right, I could not help but feel a sense of reality. The stranger sitting beside me was eating a half melted chocolate ice cream cone in the messiest and most disgusting
fashion ever! He pulled the cone towards his face slowly, awkwardly trying to aim it at his
mouth, but every time he did, he ended up squishing it into his cheek. The now repulsive ice
cream dribbled down his wiry chin, down his fingers, and down the adorable face of the fluffy
white teddy bear he had on his lap. While the ice cream was pressed against his cheek he
extended his tongue and started licking the ice cream cone which he continually held onto his
cheek. With a crooked look on my face, I squished myself into the side of my seat, away from
him, discretely, as not to hurt his feelings, making him think that I did not like sitting beside him. Besides, if he became upset with me and found out how repulsive I thought he was acting, he
was liable to do anything to me. We were trapped fifty feet in the air, and the only escape route I
had was a long deadly fall to the pavement.
Just while I was sitting solid like a statue, trying to take my mind off things, it happened. He
lifted his hairy, aged hand and dropped it on to mine which was still clenched to the securing bar. The stickiness of his hand almost felt like it was soaking into my skin. I didn’t know what to do.
I felt like his teddy bear, trapped and victim to all his actions, unable to fight back. I had the
ability to, but I didn’t want any of his emotions to run high. I just wanted the ride to end. If I
picked his hand off mine, it could make him hostile towards me, and besides, what part of him
would I touch? I could not handle anymore of his gooey hand. His arm was covered in a black
forest of hair, and when that hair faded, it was already up to his sweaty arm pit which I refuse to
describe.
Just amidst my panicking, the ride stopped. He stood up with the teddy bear I felt so sorry for
and I lost sight of him in the crowd of people. I was walking around, searching for my family,
and I was tapped on the shoulder. “Must be my Dad”, I thought. I turned to see the silhouette of a man holding a teddy bear, and the man’s wiry beard moved up and down as he mouthed the
words, “What ride do you wanna go on next?”.

moreResolved Question: I Don't Want To Lose Her To Another Man?
In My spare time I like to go to local libraries. In July of 2009, I met a beautiful white woman named Jaclynn at one of these libraries. Jaclynn as it turns out was a new librarian there. She also was going through a break up with her husband (after being involved with each other for at least 15 years, he decided to leave her for another woman).
I got to know Jaclynn and we have many interesting and wonderful conversations at the library. We are both in our 30's and have many similar interests.
Jaclynn and her husband have 3 children together and are not divorced, but are clearly separated. From what Jaclynn has told me, it doesn't appear that they are going to get back together. After talking with her over time I became more and more interested in her. I realized I wanted to be better friends and more.
So October of 2009, I told her this. I asked if she would be interested in talking sometime outside of the library. Jaclynn said that she would like to, but wasn't ready to date anyone yet. Around Christmas of 2009, I asked her again. Jaclynn said that there were 3 other people she had to think about before getting involved with another man. I assured her, that I was willing to take things slow. If we became more than friends, that would just be icing on the cake. She agreed. A few days later I even ended up meeting her oldest son Sean who works at the library as a page. Sean seemed like a very polite kid and I told Jaclynn that she raised him well.
Now it is in the spring of 2010. Jaclynn and I still have not done anything more than talk at the library. Since Christmas of 2009 I have tried to meet other women and forget about Jaclynn. Other women don't seem to be as interest me as much as Jaclynn and they don't seem to be as interested in me as she is.
Before Jaclynn came into my life, I never thought of dating a woman with children. I have dated other white women along with black women, but none of these women had children. I told her this and Jaclynn smiled. Jaclynn said she had never been involved with a black man cause until she met me, she wasn't interested.
I have also thought about her children and know they are part of the package. That's why I am willing to go slow and stay at whatever pace Jaclynn wants. I don't think she wants me to be a father to her children, but if we do end up falling in love and she wants me to be their father figure or even step dad if we get married that is fine with me. I don't have any children now and think that Jaclynn is a wonderful mother and a wonderful woman. I can't imagine her not being in my life at least as a friend, if not more than that. I am looking to be better friends with and possibly start dating her. I am NOT just looking for sex. Jaclynn knows this.
I am not sure why she is hesitant to date me (still not over her ex, she is hurt, has trust issues, because I am black, or whatever) however after asking this question the other day I realize she still needs time to think things through. ********************************************************************************************************************
Now my questions are: If I sit back and do nothing and not pressure her about going on a date, I am worried that I risk the chance of becoming just the guy who talks to her at the library. Not the next guy she dates. I have no problem giving her time, but if I were to find out she is going to end up dating another man and or having sex with another man not only would I be jealous, but heartbroken as well.
Jaclynn isn't the type of woman to go around dating and having sex with lots of guys, however she is human and has needs. I don't know if she has dated or had sex with anyone since her break up with her husband nor do I want to really know... HOWEVER I do know that she is beautiful, romantic, and sexy. So I am sure there are guys who are trying to date and or have sex with her. Eventually one of these guys could wear her down and she could give into them. So while I am sitting back being the nice guy and not "pressuring her" to go on a simple walk at the park or mall. Some other guy might be trying to have sex with her. It's kind of like the nice guys finish last type of thing. So my question is, how do I not pressure her to date me but also not lose her to another man???
moreOpen Question: Problems connecting to Barnes & Noble free wi-fi using Windows laptops. How do you fix?
Hello. I go to Barnes & Noble a few times a week and they offer free wi-fi service there. Now, I'm not having the problem, but I've been asked by two separate people with Windows-based laptops for help connecting to the store's wi-fi.
They are getting on their laptops that the wi-fi signal is there and that there is a connection, however, nothing is happening and the browsers (both IE and Firefox) are getting blank/white pages. So what is causing this? Is it a setting somewhere in the Control Panel? Is it the browsers? The wi-fi hardware ? Or is it the wi-fi service messing up?
Just so you know, the two people were using Windows Vista and Windows XP. Also, the wi-fi at the Barnes & Noble does work because I and others around these perplexed people are having it work on our own laptops without fail or delay. Please help me learn if possible on this tech-hangup. Thanks for reading.

So my questions are:
Am I wasting my time with her? While I don't mind waiting for the right woman and going at whatever pace she wants to set, I don't want to wait forever. Why is she so hesitant? I am NOT out to hurt her and I am NOT just looking for sex. Jaclynn knows this and told me so. Could it be because I am black and she is not ready to date outside her race? Could she still love her husband? What do you think is holding her back? Any advice would be really helpful.I have thought about the complete package deal and that's why I am wanting to go slow as well. I know she has 3 children and they are part of the package. I don't think she wants me to be a father to her children, but if we do end up falling in love and she wants me to be their father figure or even step dad if we get married that is fine with me. I don't have any children now and think that she is a wonderful mother and a wonderful woman. I can't imagine her not being in my life at least as a friend, if not more than that.
moreResolved Question: Am I Wasting My Time Or Doing The Right Thing?
In My spare time I like to go to local libraries. In July of 2009, I met a beautiful white woman named Jaclynn at one of these libraries. Jaclynn as it turns out was a new librarian there. She also happened to be going through a bitter break up with her husband (after being together for 15 years plus) he decided to leave her for another white woman.
I got to know Jaclynn and we have many interesting and wonderful conversations at the library. We are both in our 30's and have many similar interests.
Jaclynn and her husband have 3 children together and are not divorced, but are clearly separated. From what Jaclynn has told me, it doesn't appear that they are going to get back together. As you might have imagined, I became more and more interested in Jaclynn and found out that I wouldn't mind being more than just friends with her.
So October of 2009, I told her this. I asked if she would be interested in talking sometime outside of the library. She said that she would like to, but wasn't ready to date anyone yet. Around Christmas of 2009, I asked her again. Jaclynn said that there were 3 other people she had to think about before getting involved with another man. I assured her, that I was willing to take things slow. If we became more than friends, that would just be icing on the cake. She agreed. A few days later I even ended up meeting her oldest son Sean who works at the library as a page. Sean seemed like a very polite kid and I told Jaclynn that she raised him well.
Now it is in the spring of 2010. Jaclynn and I still have not done anything more than talk at the library. Since Christmas of 2009 I have tried to meet other women and forget about Jaclynn. Other women don't seem to be as interesting to me as Jaclynn and they don't seem to be as interested in me as she is.
Before Jaclynn came into my life, I never thought of dating a woman with children. I have dated other white women along with black women, but none of these women had children. I told her this and she smiled. She then told me she had never been involved with a black man cause she wasn't really interested until she met me.
So my questions are:
Am I wasting my time with her? While I don't mind waiting for the right woman and going at whatever pace she wants to set, I don't want to wait forever. Why is she so hesitant? I am NOT out to hurt her and I am NOT just looking for sex. Jaclynn knows this and told me so. Could it be because I am black and she is not ready to date outside her race? Could she still love her husband? What do you think is holding her back? Any advice would be really helpful.I have thought about the complete package deal and that's why I am wanting to go slow as well. I know she has 3 children and they are part of the package. I don't think she wants me to be a father to her children, but if we do end up falling in love and she wants me to be their father figure or even step dad if we get married that is fine with me. I don't have any children now and think that she is a wonderful mother and a wonderful woman. I can't imagine her not being in my life at least as a friend, if not more than that.
moreResolved Question: What do you think of my To Kill A Mocking Bird book review?
I had to review a book for my english class and considering To Kill A Mocking Bird is my favourite book I've read in a while. I chose the book. I'm 13. Do you think this is a good review and can you suggest any improvements?
I had heard many great things about To Kill a Mocking Bird before actually reading it. So as I turned the first page I was very excited. The story starts off with Jean Louise Finch reciting her summer holidays before first grade. Jean, or ‘scout’ living in Alabama, United States narrates the story. The context is 1950’s America when there’s wide spread racism, poverty and prejudice. Alabama being one of the white dominant areas.
The first chapter was disappointing for me however as I struggled through, things got better. But as it got better, it also got darker, stranger and more and more relative to myself. The story being seen through a young, curious girls eyes – first person narrator - gives the book a powerful and personal perspective and you don’t want to put the book down.
Atticus, Scout’s father, has a calm personality and an insightful intelligence. He is strict but kind. You also read about his sternness when Scout touches on sensitive issue, such as coloured people being treated differently. After Atticus agrees to defend a black man for a rape charge, Scout becomes concerned for her father’s safety.
Overall a very good book with a powerful message that I would highly recommend to all 13 year old avid readers.

moreOpen Question: Lawyers & law graduates, are journals and non-political texts etc acceptable as extrinsic interpretive aids?
Various laws on how to interpret often contain these words, more or less copying each other:
"In the interpretation of a provision of an Act or statutory rule, if any material not forming part of the Act or statutory rule is capable of assisting in the ascertainment of the meaning of the provision, consideration may be given to that material:
(a) to confirm that the meaning of the provision is the ordinary meaning conveyed by the text of the provision....., or
(b) to determine the meaning of the provision:
(i) if the provision is ambiguous or obscure, or
(ii) if the ordinary meaning conveyed by the text of the provision.....leads to a result that is manifestly absurd or is unreasonable.
(2) Without limiting the effect of subsection (1), the material that may be considered in the interpretation of a provision of an Act, or a statutory rule made under the Act, includes:"
A list of written documents related to government proceedings and international treaties are then given under this section. Then
"(3) In determining whether consideration should be given to any material, or in considering the weight to be given to any material, regard shall be had, in addition to any other relevant matters, to:
(a) the desirability of persons being able to rely on the ordinary meaning conveyed by the text of the provision, and
(b) the need to avoid prolonging legal or other proceedings without compensating advantage."
EXAMPLE: racism has, too long, been defined by the general white public. That causes a disadvantage to victims of racism because a lot of the general public often accuse non-white people of making false racist claims. Due to political correctness and workplace anti-discrimination laws, a new form of racism, called covert racism, has been defined and examples of behaviours given in some articles written by people online who have a social science qualification such as sociology or anthropology. Even without the word 'covert' it is still racism.
Questions: 1) What is ACTUALLY acceptable by courts and judges? Do they tend to rely on government publications 99% to 100% of the time, with the occasional dictionary? What if the meaning of a word or phrase in current use has changed since a law was enacted 100 years ago or more?
2) This part "the desirability of persons being able to rely on the ordinary meaning conveyed"
doesn't make sense to me with regard to material outside of parliamentary and government production. Does it mean that the reputation or qualifications of the author of the non-government material will be considered - or what?
3) Can textbooks, scientific or other academic journals, statements in web pages of professional membership organisations, and news articles be used?
4) Please state the nation/country/territory you are referring to when answering my question. (I'm interested in former colonies of the UK that are now independent, and also Commonwealth countries)
5) Not including blogs and Yahoo Answers of course, can articles written by anyone that has been accepted and posted by a website that publishes magazine type articles or pseudo-academic style articles that aren't officially associated with a university or professional organisation be used?Old Cynic, thanks but your answer isn't an answer to this question. I read the news link to find that the UK anti-discrimination commision does a better job at investigating than the ones in Australia & NZ. Sorry, your ans shows no knowledge of the legal system and no experience in any court.
I need anyone experienced in court cases. This question only looks long but it is about giving a list of what is actually acceptable to judges, clerks, heads of tribunals etc. and some reasons for it.

CHAPTER 1
The chilly night wind blew quietly through the tops of the trees, making leaves flutter and float to the ground. The forest was dark and silent, absent of any nighttime-creatures' scurrying. A thick white fog was lying, deadly and ominous, among the closely-spaced tree trunks and thick undergrowth. The only sounds were the whispering of the wind in the trees and the occasional eerie hoot of an owl.
Suddenly, something moved in the shadows. A woman, cloaked and hooded, was carrying a small wrapped bundle in her arms. The color of her eyes and hair were indiscernible in the darkness, but she was skinny and of medium height. Her face was swathed in shadow.
She stepped quickly and surefooted, as if she could see perfectly through the fog. She kept glancing around her uneasily; it was presumable that she did not want to be captured in this eerie forest. However, she was not alone. Six pairs of keen yellow eyes watched her sneak through the forest. Twenty-four paws followed her quietly as she wound her way through the dense trees.
A shabby cabin appeared in the gloom. A single candle was lit in a filthy window; it gave the glass a slightly green appearance. Stepping up onto the sagging porch, she heard a little snuffle of breath behind her in the mist; it frightened her---there were evil things in this forest.
The woman rapped quickly and many times upon the wooden door. Slowly it opened, and there stood another young woman. {Her looks were quite different than the woman's standing on her porch}. She had proud features that dominated her face; sharp, pointed ears, and unusually long, thin fingers. She had long blond hair that fell to her waist. She was dressed oddly, as well; the woman holding the bundle was dressed warmly, as the forest was cold. The second woman, however, was wearing on a light dress made out of thin golden material.
"Alysia!" the blond woman cried in shock, pulling her gently but swiftly into the room. "It is much too dangerous at present to be wandering through the woods at night---especially THESE woods, and especially with a baby! There are dark things in this forest, dark things indeed." She glared distrustfully into the gloom as her friend sat down on a couch by the fire. She saw the yellow eyes, saw the glimmer of the pearly-white fangs in the moonlight. {She knew what they belonged to.}
The woman shut the door with a snap, bolted it securely, and sat in a chair in front of the woman called Alysia. They were seperated by an elaborately-carved wooden table that was about the same size as the chair seats.
Alysia handed the other woman the bundle and curled up tightly on the couch. She began to shiver, so the blond woman bought her a warm fur blanket that helped her to stop the worst of the chills.
"Alysia, why have you come so early? It is not time yet! This child is little over a year old!" Distress was obvious in the blond woman's voice.
"Do not start on me, Thia," Alysia replied tartly, staring emotionlessly into the fire. "Everyone has been telling me I'm making the wrong decison, but I'm certain I'm not. I want to fight for my country, I want to fight King Kruffer. I want to save the Shadowlands. I want to let people---humans and Shadowers alike---live the way they want to live---not in fear, but in joy. They shouldn’t be threatened; they have done nothing to Kruffer. He’s frightened of the power they have, and he’s going to do everything he can to stop them. Right now he can’t do anything, but within the next two decades, he will wage a war, I can promise you that. I want to help get rid of him and bring King Ewin and Queen Mira back.”
Thia chose to ignore this. “This forest is dangerous,” she said instead. “I implore you to see reason! She could get Mist Fever, or Swamp Tongue. She could eat the wrong kind of mushroom if I am not there to guide her otherwise. She could get eaten by the bloodthirsty wolves that this forest belongs to. There are just so many ways for a little one like her to die… Each day, even for me, is a gamble, a fifty-fifty chance of live or death. With the uncertainty of life here in this forest, she could be dead by tomorrow!”
“With the uncertainty of life anywhere, she could be dead by tomorrow!” Alysia countered. “She could get taken by Kruffer’s men on a raid. She could eat the wrong kind of herb. She could get trampled by a horse if she runs out the door and falls in the street. You’re right; there are so many ways for a little one like her to die.”
Thia did not answer. She watched her lifelong friend,She watched her lifelong friend, who was so obviously distraught. Tears were running silently down Alysia’s face. After a long silence, Alysia spoke again.
“Please…you know the forest. You can use your mind to control the forest, as all elves can. You have power, the likes of which I have never seen before. If this is not a safe home for my little girl, I do not know what is!”
“You make it sound as if I am the supreme ruler of this forest. I am not. I do not control the happenings in this forest, contrary to what you apparently believe,” Thia said icily, although she regretted her tone almost immediately.
Alysia spoke no more. Instead she let out a long-suffering sigh and stood up, taking the blanket off. She took a small brown pack out from under her cloak.
Opening it, she pulled out a wax-sealed envelope. “In this you will find a letter to my girl. When she reaches her sixteenth birthday, you must give it to her. If Kruffer is still around, she will be the only one who canhelp---because she has this,” Alysia pulled a beautiful necklace out of the pack next, handing Thia the envelope.
Shaped like a teardrop, the necklace had dozens of miniscule facets that the light of the fire flickered and sparkled off of. A silver band around the sides and bottom of the teardrop melded together at the top and secured the jewel to the thin silver chain that was holding it. Alysia numbly threaded the chain through her fingers until it dropped onto Thia’s outstretched hands.
“Oh!” Thia gasped, eyes widening. “This is a queenly gift! This was made by the elves centuries ago! How did you procure this amazing treasure?”
Alysia twisted a golden ring around her finger nervously, hesitating. Finally she muttered, “Do not judge me for the past.”
“As you wish,” Thia nodded, again seating herself in the armchair in front of the couch, where Alysia was just sitting down again.
Alysia’s eyes grew wet and she gulped nervously. Hurriedly she began to speak, as if the wordswere poison and the quicker they left her mouth, the less they would hurt her. “When Rolof and I married, his grandmother---who was old and frail, nearing her death---gave me this ring…It was a wedding present. Rolof and I had been married seven months, and I was five months pregnant, when Velica, his grandmother, was dying. She brought me to her beside, told me to take a small jewelry chest out of her trunk and give it to her.”
Alysia paused and wiped her eyes. Then she continued weakly, “Inside was this necklace---the most beautiful I have ever seen, having grown up in a poor family on a farm. Anyway, I protested, but she insisted I keep it. It was not, after all, for me; it was for the baby, when she reaches a suitable age. She told me it was the…the Shadow Stone. Once the portal to the Shadow Realm closes up, King Kruffer will be unable to go there---although I am sure he will find a loophole.The Shadow Stone must be taken to the Shadow Gate---the portal between the Human Realm and the Shadow Realm.”
Thia was sitting on the edge of her seat, watching Alysia in genuine interest.
Alysia suddenly began sobbing, so loudly that Thia was worried that the baby girl sleeping in her arms would wake. She appeared to be a deep sleeper, though, and didn’t wake.
“You must not judge what I did next,” Alysia wept, shaking off her hood. Long black hair streamed down her back, and her eyes were red and puffy. She looked pitiful.
“I wouldn’t dream of it,” Thia replied kindly, albeit a bit impatiently---she was wondering what could have happened.“I’ve left Rolof, Thia! I abandoned him. He was devastated when I told him I was pregnant, I could see it in his eyes. He had wanted to be an adventurer and go on exciting trips to save the Realms. The thought appeals to me quiet a bit, I must say… But he’d wanted to have the baby passed off to someone else---someone I didn’t even know---after it was born. He said, ‘But Alysia, darling, that way we will be free to spend a few years doing whatever we like, going on adventurers whenever we want to. Then we can settle down and have a family---once we’re both ready for it.’”**Note: The name pronunciations are as follows:

moreResolved Question: What did the real hebrews look like?,black perhaps,which is a description?
Exodus 4:6 And YAH said furthermore unto him, Put now thine hand into thy bosom. And he put his hand into his bosom: and when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous as snow.........................
Exodus 2: 10 And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the water.
Many Scholars say the Pharaoh who was on the throne of Egypt at the time of Moses' birth, was Pharaoh Seti I. He was the father of Rameses II, also known as Rameses the Great.
George Rawlinson, an English author wrote a book entitled History of Egypt. On page 252, he gives a description of Seti I. He states: "SETI'S FACE WAS THOROUGHLY AFRICAN. HE HAD A STORMY FACE WITH A DEPRESSED FLAT NOSE, THICK LIPS AND HEAVY CHIN."
Moses had the same physical characteristics because again, he was raised in the house of Pharaoh, as the grandson of Pharaoh, when Pharaoh ordered all Hebrew males to be killed at birth. If the Israelites were a white-skinned people, how could Moses the Hebrew survive (secretly) in the house of Pharaoh among black-skinned Egyptians for 40 years, and not be noticed.
Furthermore, after giving the decree (himself) to kill all Hebrew males, how could Pharaoh face and rule over his people, if he knowingly had one living in his house with all the rights and privileges of his own family? Moses survived 40 years in the palace of Pharaoh because he was a black man just as the Egyptians were.
This is deep, Pharaoh looked into the eyes of Moses as a baby and thought this was his own flesh and blood. He looked into the eyes of Moses as a teenager and thought this was his own flesh and blood. He looked into the eyes of Moses as a young man in his 20's and 30's and thought this was his own flesh and blood. Pharaoh saw Moses grow into a man of 40 and he thought this was his own flesh and blood grandson.
Just as Joseph's brothers and the Canaanite couldn't tell the Hebrews from the Egyptians. Pharaoh couldn't either, or Moses would have been killed instantly

"If the American people found out?"
Gee, what a surprise. A group that preaches racial superiority and divisiveness wants to enact a stealth illegal immigration bill -- not dissimilar to chain migration. The bill will reward illegal immigration to the direct detriment of all American taxpayers and especially the elderly.
Kind of puts Judge Sotomayor's membership in La Raza in a new light, doesn't it?
Groups like La Raza encourage the Balkanization of America. They promote mutually hostile political groups that do not form a "melting pot", that do not utilize a common language, and that do not share the principles of America's founding.
Fifty years from now, if La Raza gets its way, America will look more like Yugoslavia in 1993 than America.

moreResolved Question: How to deal with mooching friends?
Ok. I'm a nice guy, and I always assume people will reciprocate to me because its the decent thing to do but my friend is such a moocher it makes me sick.
I am the one who always has to drive. This weekend I had to drive an 1 hour and 10 minutes to a destination and we only stayed an hour. I had to pay tolls and gas. Then when they decided they wanted to leave I drove another hour and a half to another destination and we stayed for only an hour.
The I had
I had to stop to get gas twice (cost a total of 45 bucks) and they didn't give me any gas money (i didn't ask and they didn't offer) However one guy did give me 20 bucks for parking and bought me coffee. (which is what the parking cost... I know its ridiculous) When my one friend gave me money for parking (20 bucks) my other friend gave 20 bucks to the kid who gave me money.
That doesn't make much sense. I drove around for 4 and half hours (the total of me driving back and forth, to the destination and back home) to stay at the destinations for an hour, he should've gave me money.
My one friend can't drive anywhere because he has an illness where he can't drive. and my other friend doesn't like his car because he thinks its crappy.
I always have to drive 20minutes to there house because they never drive to me. and then on top of that, I have to drive them everywhere after driving 20 minutes to get to their house. And when they do drive, they drive around there town, places that are like 2-10 minutes away. One time my friend drove 20minutes away and he asked for 20 bucks gas money. (when we first started to hang out) (at the time he use to drive me around his town a lot, but that was after i drove 20 minutes just to get to his house) And I like an a$$hole I gave it to him. This same friend has never paid me back for anything.. he's always substituted paying me back with money with something he can get for free. For instance he took me to a restaurant where we both got free food and he said "this is me paying you back for spending 15 bucks on me playing golf"
How does spending 15bucks (me) and spending $0 (my friend) = paying someone back?
One time I tried telling him this. (through a text message, a very long one might I add... like 7 pages) and he totally flipped out on me and said "If im going to act like this I don't want to hang out with you anymore" I probably shouldn't have told him through a text message.. Im shy about getting into conflicts with people. Now im afraid to address this to him in person (which im thinking of doing)
because he's might to get mad at me. and say something that doesn't make any sense to justify his behavior of being a moocher.
My friend is dumber then dirt though. Part of me thinks he doesn't know any better. I went to High school with him, we both went to a high school with a lot of white trash people. I personally think he's been hanging with so many people who don't know how to act that it's rubbed off on him.
Also around Christmas he said to me that we were going to exchange gifts and said he would probably get me a gift card. So I went out and bought him a $20 gift card and he didn't give me anything. To this day he hasn't gotten me a gift. I think that is pretty $hi*ty of him. Who does that? Honestly he does such ridiculous and insane things I don't even know how to react to it. Who pays someone back with free food? Apparently my jerk of a friend does.
I have a hard time making new friends, im afraid if I say something he will flip out. Oh I forgot to tell ya.. he a flipping drama queen and he's dumb. So he gets mad at people for the most ridiculous reasons. If I try to explain this to him civilly, he'll misinterpret it and overreact. So I don't know what to do. I don't want to lose my friends, but I Don't want to be a doormat either.
How do I fix this situation? My parents told me if Im going to drive far ask for gas and toll money before hand.. but im afraid that he'll start asking me for money when he drives 5 minutes from his house (which is about as far as he goes.. though he sometimes drives like 20 minutes.. its rare)
Anyway.. what the heck should I doo?!??!?
How do I tell him without pissing him off?

The question pretty much says it all. For a little more reference, you can check this page (http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3050352/0~2376777~2374609~2374623~2378123?mediumthumbnail=Y&origin=category&searchtype=&pbo=2378123&P=3) and select the green option. This sweatshirt is almost what I'm looking for but not quite...The one I'm looking for is a lighter brighter green and the zipper is all white with a white handle I believe. Call me picky, but I might as well try and find the one I want! Besides, it'll probably be cheaper if it's not Nordstroms haha.
I've seen it on people around my college campus so it must be a pretty popular store right now. I've checked American Apparel and such but to no avail.

No one in my family will check it for me for mistakes or what-not so can someone please do so? Thanks so much!
Leroy Eldridge Cleaver, born in Wabaska, Arkansas in 1935, was perhaps most famous for his book “Soul On Ice” written in 1968. Not to mention he was the outspoken Minister of Information for the civil rights activist group The Black Panthers- a combination of 30+ unique African-Americans who never backed down from defending their rights and demanding to get what they deserved as humans; black or white.
However, this man is also a very controversial figure. It seems all he did was give young black juveniles an excuse to rape white women, do drugs, and commit thefts. You’d think he was trying to act as a slightly successful echo of the negative actions of Malcolm X. However, please do not mark this assumption as a fact until you read or at least read reviews about his now-classic prison-written memoir Soul On Ice. Just reading what people had to say about it changed my views on this man and the mistakes he made throughout his lifetime. Rated as a book that shed light on the dark areas we wish he’d leave alone, its obvious what an impact it left on not only the readers but the civil rights movement as a whole. It ultimately changed the way America looked at the CRM! I think the raw honesty and truth that lies in the pages of this book is what really drew people towards it.
Eldridge Cleaver was a voice for the black race in America; a voice that shadows throughout the kaleidoscope that we look into when we study the importance, hard work, bravery, and invincibility of black history.

A.N Please ignore the symbols - I don't know how to get rid of them :/
Leah looked across the classroom and sighed in relief, everyone was there.She had thought that maybe they wouldn't be there. That they might have Dissapeared. Like so many others, like the teacher and like her next door neighbours. Leah looked down worriedly, at the newspaper.
MILLIONS DISSAPEAR
Over the course of a week over one million people have disappeared from the Greater London area without cause or explanation. Nothing connects these people, and there is no proof of struggles. One million people cana ™t just disappear- yet they have. They range in age from babies to elderly people at home. They have disappeared in plain view of their friends, relatives and neighbours. None of the million have re-appeared or communicated with anyone since they disappeared.
Police chiefs around the country have claimed:
a œThis cannot be the work of an organisation or terrorist group. It seems to be like a virus or dare I say it some supernatural occurrence. I can confirm this . We advice members of the public to stay in view of their friends and family, and within five metres of others at all times. These a ˜disappearancesa ™ are said to be occurring across the globe.a
Some people are calling this the end of days.
Crying, she looked up to see the whole class looking at her in confusion.
a œWhata ™s wrong Leah?a Rio asked and she pointed at the headline.
a œLook! Millions of people and ita ™s not just London! Ita ™s everywhere!a Leah spun round in her seat to see everyone screaming and staring at an empty seat.
a œWho was sitting there?a she demanded.
Everyone was too shocked to answer, and then eventually Lisa whispered
a œDaniel. That was Daniela
They sat there unmoving for what felt like eternity, and then Leah stood up and walked to the front of the classroom.
a œIta ™s not safe. Nothinga ™s safe here. He disappeared from right under our eyes, and lets face it - we are next. Wea ™ve got to do something. Maybe if we get out of London we might be a little safera ¦a Leah said.
a œIta ™s everywhere! Nowherea ™s safe, you idiot! someone screamed.
a œLook, wea ™ve got to try, haven’t we? Leah said reaasonably.
People started to nod but refused to move.
"Let's think. When did all this start?" Leah said weakly, turning on the laptop to see if there was anything on the news.
"Last month, remember? The Mayor went missing on live TV"
"What's the point? We're just kids - we can't do anything" came a shout.
"We can try or we can disappear" Leah shouted and grabbed a white board pen.
"Where can we go?" she whispered tapping the pen absentmindedly.
"There's a village about twenty miles from here." Lisa shouted, while Leah was staring at the screen.
"Look!" she said.
On the screen was one article filling the page. "State of Emergency Called. Stay Safe. Avoid Public Meetings. Do not Look For Family, Just Run. Just Run. Oh My God. It's Found Them" was written in block capitals.
"Who wrote that?" she wondered and then scrolled down to find the answer.
" Senior Editor" she gulped.
"What does it say?" someone asked and Leah turned around, tears glistening on her face.
"Just run. Oh my God.It's found them"
"What do we do?"
"RUN!" Leah screamed and they flooded out of the school.
Stopping for breathe, Leah stood on top of a bench and shouted "Follow me". Everyone in the class followed her, not questioning her authority over them, running faster than they had ever run before. Even though they could barely breathe, none of them stopped for even a second, until they had reached an empty field. They had been running for at least half an hour, and collapsing onto the grass, Leah looked around her. She was on a field, a few miles from the centre of London; on the outskirts of the city.
"Is everyone here?" Leah whispered and everyone looked around them in shock.
"Everyone's here" May said, wobbling on her feet.
"We're going to split into groups of six and we're going to run from the city. Stay with your group and don't leave them for any reason. We're going to escape" Leah said, thinking on her feet. Grabbing May,Lisa,Jay,Amy and Sara they started to run again, through the fields; leaving the other children behind.
"Leah. I've just realised something. What's the point in running? Being out of London doesn't make us any safer" May said.
"I know that. But the others don't and... I felt so helpless in that classroom, just like I was waiting to disappear you know?"
Leah shivered, and spun round on her heels. "It felt like there was someone behind me. But there isn't. This is creepy"
May nodded in response and took out her mobile phone, and opened the internet, staring at the homepage.
"Emergency Message" flashed a message and she opened it.
"Run. Just run, before it's too late. Twenty million are gone in England alone. If you are reading this then just run" the message read.

Sometimes with kids, if any kid is missing, white or whatever they look very hard. But if its a grown person. Seems to me if your an attractive looking white female and you disappear, the nation will be looking for you. And if you died?

I've been writing a story and am pretty far into it, about 148 pages in Word. I'm just looking for constructive criticism and opinions on my story. It's a fantasy. And I'm not a professional but love love love to write!
Too much. Can’t take it.
The man had never been so scared. Had never felt such disbelief. Had never experienced the panic that he was going through now. He fought savagely, an animal instinct kicking in. He fought, but was no match…he lost almost immediately. The ground cracked, and then caved underneath his feet, and he plunged into never-ending darkness.
The man awoke. His hands clenched, coming up with a fistful of sand. It ran through his fingers and he opened his eyes. The scene, lying sideways, was of a beach. White, crystal sand, so fine it could be mistaken for sugar. There was water lapping beside him, as warm as bathtub water. The sun shone softly on his skin. He sat up, and looked around. The water nudged him like a playful puppy.
Come and play. Come and play.
He was not wet, although he was sitting in water. Strange. Over on the beach, was a cabin and it beckoned to him, promising eternal happiness. He didn’t know who he was. He didn’t know what he was doing here. He didn’t care. Peace and tranquility flowed through him, and he sighed. He never wanted to leave. But, there was someone there. Someone else. Someone evil. He spun around and was instantly gagged and thrown aside. His world fell into darkness once again.
Several days later, the same man returned. But he was different. Heart encased in stone, he barely noticed the beautiful view. His footprints left harsh, ragged imprints in the sand. His eyes now shone with evil intent. He was not the same man. But he knew what he was put here to do. That was all that mattered. A grin appeared on his face, sinister as he entered the cabin. The waves and sun and cabin and sand were crying for him.
“Night!”
“Night!”
The lights clicked off as the girls snuggled into their beds. Jazz lay awake for an hour just listening to her sister snore softly. Her blue eyes glinted in the moonlight peeking through their velvet curtains. Finally, Jazz rose out of bed, careful not to wake her sister, and crept outside. The air was crisp and felt like a silk blanket on her warm skin. She breathed a sigh of relief. The air inside a cramped house was too…stuffy, contained like a cage. Outside, however, you could smell everything. The fragile blades of grass swaying, the gentle gold of the radiating lights, the burning of the faint stars, but most of all, you could smell the quietness.
There was something special about each kind of quiet, Jazz mused. There was the uncomfortable quiet that smothered all the fun, the nothing-to-say quiet, the homework/school quiet, and the alone quiet. The ‘Alone Quiet’ had Jazz feel as if the world was just watching, the whole world, and all of the opportunities were out and anything could happen. She liked that quiet the best, savored it and craved its presence.
There was a cramp in her left ankle so she sat on the damp grass. And gazed up at the stars. There were so many.
What if each was a planet? What if there were people on each planet? What would they do different than here? What if…Jazz often had thought patterns like this. Out of the corner of her eye, Jazz thought she saw something peculiar. Fixing her blue-gray eyes on it, she realized it was a star. No…not a star. A star wouldn’t be blinking different colors would it? Of course not. She counted to herself.
Green…one…blue…two…yellow…three…white…four. And then the pattern would start over. Jazz’s body tensed up. Her hair on the back of her neck stood straight and her feet wanted to run. Was someone watching me? She glanced around her. No one. Silently, she got to her feet and hurried inside to where a whimpering Karma was tossing and turning.
Jazz didn’t notice that the star was now shining a glorious crimson.
Inside, Jazz went and splashed water over her chilled face, it awakened her to everything. Sharpening the edges of her vision. Glancing up at the mirror, she watched herself for a moment. The waves in her long caramel colored hair looked messy with bed head, and her cute little button nose was tinged with red from the cold. The corners of her mouth turned up a little, watching the girl in the mirror smile. If you replace Jazz’s blue eyes with chocolate brown ones…boom, there’s Karma.
As Jazz was walking through the house, she stopped and listened for any sounds of her parents. Nothing. They must not be home yet.
Jazz went to bed in hopes of falling asleep.

So far my week has been the worst ever, on Monday my bike was taken apart while i was in school, and i was then mobbed by around 15 students who attempted to steal my bike until a member of staff intervened. Please do not judge me from the following paragraph.
I was attending an after-school session concerning a large school trip over seas and was bored so i started to doodle. My doodle was of stick-men fighting each other etc.. I asked the teacher for advice and she was writing a website address down for me. She flipped over the page and saw the doodle, she went crazy. the doodle itself was of a 'white' (unshaded) stick-man 'shooting' a 'black' (shaded in) stick-man; with the title "How black people die" of course i meant "How black stick-men die" nothing to do with race. However i was dropped from the group and sent home. ashamed i told my parents how i was racist and i didn't deserve anything. They were not angry but were however disappointed with me, they told me what i should do and i did it, they told me i wasn't racist for doing this. I wrote an apology letter. It was accepted and no further action was taken, besides me being kicked of the course. however that day people posted on social networking site things like: " ___ ___ have fun next summer" and "I wonder if ___ ___ is being eaten alive by his parents right now?" both with numerous comments of them explaining how racist I am and how i am a horrible person. I spent 3 hours crying (and yes I'm a 14 year old boy). the next day i was verbally attacked at least 5 times and shoved around and laughed at, no girls will talk to me and people keep asking me why/what i did and people are making up obscene rumors about the drawings themselves. As i went to lunch i was sickened by a group of students shouting "racist!" and "you b******d!" and other obscenities, i was unable to eat because of my shock . Later that day i was confronted by a group of around 30 people, 3 of them 'coloured' who were pretending they took offence of what i 'did' i was saved by a teacher who came out to see what was happening, but nobody suggested the purpose of this 'mass meeting'. later that day another boy confronted me telling me how I "was a naughty boy" attempting to patronize me. In last period i was told that i was "dead." by another student as he walked by. As i write this i am shivering because i am scared of what might happen to me. I feel lost and alone and most of my friends don't believe me and have either turned against me or ignore me. Please what can i do to make it stop?

Yesterday I was on facebook. I stopped by on one of their pages and posted "hi everyone". Immediately after several people started to call me a "monkey", a "nigg**", "ugly", "my lips aren't accepted in white america" and just basically as many racist and hateful comments you can think of. Usually I don't allow myself to get upset over negative comments, but this situation in particular i felt I had to defend myself. Yes the names hurt, but what really got to me was the harsh reality that it looked like I was the only one on that "blog" or "page" that seemed to think the racism was cruel. One because I wasn't the only one they had said racist comments to, but the only one that was defending their self, and two, that there were actually people of my same race that were in on the racism. I know that there a some people that would just say get over it, but don't people believe in defending yourself. I mean isn't that what the "bully" is expecting you to do, just to back down? I can see if I went in there doing the same and saying rude comments along with them. But I didn't , so shouldn't I get more respect than this? Shouldn't anybody? I mean I'm just basically trying to see if there are people out there that actually agree with me! Anybody that actually cares? Because I admit, i haven't felt this hurt in my life. =( But I felt like i probably wasted my time trying to defend everyone including myself.

I want to post fanfiction on livejournal for communities but the only way I've figured out how to do this is to post the fiction as an entry in my own journal.

I don't want to put thethe full fiction because they can be insanely long and I feel it's forcing them on people if they have to wade through them (and may not necessarily like them) to get to other unrelated entries.

moreResolved Question: Are people confused about stereotypes vs racism?
IDK I was just reading the yahoo news thing about Speedy Gonzales. How the news page is saying that the 1950 character is stereotypically racist. I myself think that is a bit of an oxymoron. I mean a stereotype is like saying white people cant dance, black people like watermelons and have big we wes, and that mexicans are hard working and jam 20 ppl into 1 car. That's a fact for some people. Racism is putting people down for what they are for no reason. I don't think the two should be confused. Stereotypes are funny I mean anyone who has watched the George Lopez show (He is doing the voice in the new Speedy movie) sees him being what they call racist all the time. I remember when his daughter was dating a white boy and the adopted him ish. Anyways he was saying how they would have to get the mild sauce because he was white. Also there are plenty of comedians that do stereotypical jokes all the time. Katt Williams, Wanda Sykes, Robin Williams, and plenty of others but nobody attacks them but they attack a cartoon.IDK america is to PC and it is going to pussify a generation, where everyone cries if you sneeze in there general direction. I am in no way condoning racism, I believe it is very wrong but what is wrong with stereotypes, there true and funny and everyone has one. like I am a hick.

The bar was clearly visible from afar amongst the small wooden shacks and towering stone buildings. The light from the large windows seemed to radiate out into the dark damp streets. The pub was set in place like it had been the night before, as if everyone had a part to play in the small world of the bar. The beer-bellied barman looked round to see locals sitting in their designated places, drinking their designated drinks.
The hooded man seemed to be attracted to the noise of the small bar. He walked through the mud and grunge towards the make-shift door, His long black robe flickering behind him. As he approached the faded green door, he turned and looked to the night sky. The sky was clear and the moon was full. He turned his attention again to the door. As he reached out with his cold large hand, he gave it a slight push. The door slammed open and the drunken people turned in fear and shock to the door expecting to see a large crowd of people running through. But there was no large crowd. Only a lone man, dressed in dark black clothing which made his already cold white skin, seem even whiter.
The man in black calmly walked in. The door seemed to slam shut behind him. The people of the bar carefully watched with caution and anticipation to the man in black’s next moves. He walked to the barman and stood at the opposite side of the bar.
“Yes?” said the barman trying to hide his fear
The man in black looked up to him. They were eye to eye. The barman slowly reached for his six-piece under the bar. As he grasped the handle of the gun the man in black spoke.
“Pint please” he said barely moving his mouth.
The barman, to his relief, let go of the gun and exchanged it with the handle of the keg that held the beer. The large glass filled with beer and the barman stopped pulling. He looked up expecting to see the man standing eagerly, but he wasn’t. The barman looked around the circular bar and eventually spotted the man sitting at a table with a newspaper in hand. He left the bar and went to the man’s table. On the barman’s arrival he noticed the man in black had already sorted out the money and laid it on the table to be collected.
“Here’s your pint sir.” said the barman stretching his arm out to the man in black’s table.
He looked at the barman at took the beer from his hand.
“Cheers, there is your money.” merely pointing to it with his eyes
The bar man scrapped it off the round wooden table into his cupped hands and walked away.

Second case in point:
Michelle Obama's thesis, entitled: "Princeton Educated Blacks and the Black Community"
(You can view it here: http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0208/8642.html)
The whole introduction smacks of black militancy, and there's an interesting quote on page 9 that I believe ties into her campaign against childhood obesity:
She ponders whether or not blacks who are educated at predominately white universities will feel:
"...any obligation as a member of the Black community to help other Blacks in particular who are less fortunate than themselves? Earlier in my college career, there was no doubt in my mind as a member of the Black community I was somehow obligated to this community and would utilize all of my present and future resources to benefit this community first and foremost."
Statistics show that obesity is more prevalent amongst minorities (blacks). One of the pillars of her campaign is to eliminate "food deserts" in the inner cities. Guess which group lives in the inner cities.
I think her whole obesity campaign is a thinly disguised attempt to give more government assistance to minorities, specifically, HER people, the very people that she said she would "utilize all of my present and FUTURE (my emphasis) resources to benefit this community first and foremost."What if Sarah Palin had written a thesis about bettering the white community before all others? What about Cindy McCain?

moreResolved Question: Why does Obama ignore the will of the People? He is such a Leftist that he want to destroy our country?
A mere three days before President Obama's supposedly bipartisan health-care summit, the White House yesterday released a new blueprint that Democrats say they will ram through Congress with or without Republican support. So after election defeats in Virginia, New Jersey and even Massachusetts, and amid overwhelming public opposition, Democrats have decided to give the voters what they don't want anyway.
Ah, the glory of "progressive" governance and democratic consent.
"The President's Proposal," as the 11-page White House document is headlined, is in one sense a notable achievement: It manages to take the worst of both the House and Senate bills and combine them into something more destructive. It includes more taxes, more subsidies and even less cost control than the Senate bill. And it purports to fix the special-interest favors in the Senate bill not by eliminating them—but by expanding them to everyone.
The larger political message of this new proposal is that Mr. Obama and Democrats have no intention of compromising on an incremental reform, or of listening to Republican, or any other, ideas on health care. They want what they want, and they're going to play by Chicago Rules and try to dragoon it into law on a narrow partisan vote via Congressional rules that have never been used for such a major change in national policy. If you want to know why Democratic Washington is "ungovernable," this is it.Blue lady, yes I have contected my representative. Unfortunately I am from Pelosi, Feinstein and Boxer country.

moreResolved Question: What is the correct doseage of Vitamin And ribavirin for a 5kg puppy w/Canine Distemper? Live In China-no v?
Hi! I am living in China and have had 2 puppys that died of what was called canine distemper. It is hard to know for sure if it really was.. Now I have a new puppy I am trying to save .
The first thing every vet does in China is a litmus paper based CDV test on your animal. An easy way to make 80 yuan and quickly blame every know sickness on Canine distemper.
The health care in China is quite poor for people, and even worse for animals. Just recently there was a picture on the front page of Chin Daily of a man dragging a dog behind a motorcyle at 50kph.
Initially 4 weeks ago my puppy had wha I believe was kennel cough, even though the local vet called it parvo. There was no dihareaa or throwing up... go figure...
So after 1 week of antibiotics the kennel cough cleared up. 1 week after stopping the antibiotics my puppy started to have red eyes, and runny nose and wheezing a bit. I dont know if its related, but above his left shoulder almost overnight there is what appears to be an abscess or swollen gland. I guess there are no lymph glands above his left shoulder, and as far as I know he never recieved any innoculations or shots there.
I started him on Amoxicillin and antibacteria eye drops. I gave him amoxicillin, 125 mg 3 times a day. On day five he seemed worse.
For 5 days the mucous in his eyes worsened, and he had fevers peaking yesterday, with heavy labored breathing with what appeared to be fuid in his lungs and coming from his nose.
With his heave labored breathing it seemed similiar to the puppy I had who died most recently.
His paws are dry, I am not sure the difference between dry and cdv hard. The vet as always insisted on another cdv lithmus test and refused to help basically letting me take it home to die. Im now giving up so easy. I believe the dog is suffering from pneumonia.
Is it a result of cdv I am not sure. I have moved up from childrens centrum to adult centrum. I will start vitamin A treatment tomorrow and attempt to get Rebavirin. I chose to stop the amoxicillin after day six and switched to Cefixime. I know its higher than recommended, but as close as he was to death I decided to give 100mg per 12 hours, he has had 2 doses. Already he looks better... not as feverish. Not as close to death.
His stools were health untill 2 days ago . SInce two days he has had no ball movement. His appetite is down, not eating at all yesterday, but improving as he is eating a little today. I have been giving him gatorade every hour since yesterday.
Yesterday his mouth was very dry, even though his skin was not tenting.
He could not swallow the vitamin,,, today after the gatorade it is much better.
A strange thing I noticed was his left ear developed a strange crease on it self and folded back with what appears to be a strange vein ? not blue, but white..
I have been giving him an antibitic eye treatment... clearly there is less mucous from the eye after one day. although the white of the eyes is quite red.
I can not count out CDV, although I know from reading there is no way to quickly test for cdv in 5 minutes with lithmus paper like the Chinese "Vets" scam artists do.
However, if it is CDV, which very well may be? I want to start treatment before it gets to the brain /nervous system.
The initial two puppies, were more serious than my current puppy, by way of diahreaa, straight out stiff neck before death, pnemonia....
This puppy seems stronger and I am going to fight as hard as possible. From what I read on Wiki Vitamin ! and ribivirin have a chance to help against CDV.
I just need to know the proper dosem abd uf there is any danger in giving 100mg every 12 hours of cefixime, or is there a danger in cutting the dosage to the more proper 50mg per 12 hours after initially giving 3 doses of 100mg for the first 36 hours.
Thanks for your help. And remember, for those that say I shouild go to the vet, this is China. I went to 3 vets allready. http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2010-02/21/content_9480924.htm has an interesting perspective of a dogs life in China.
moreVoting Question: 10 points: Name the children's movie,?
You can use google, or whatever, and you can name more than one.
When I was little I used to love this movie, from what I vaguely remember
It was live action (not animated)
There was a character, (main) who wore an outfit with no color, just black and white, kinda like a coloring page, in color books with no color.
She meets all these people around a town, along with two children (I think haha) and they each have a color. The colors never got along. The only ones I truly remembered was
1) A "Here Because Were Here" (The new years eve song) by the yellow people
2) "Finnegan Begin Again (Supposed to last forever)
3) Orange, John Jingle Jackenheimer Smith or something...
I just miss the movie like crazy, and I'd like to know the name. It was from the 80's or 90's... so it was pretty old. It might've been from the 70's too, but I doubt it. They might have been new to color, and again, the quality wasn't fantastic, but it was still fascinating.
Give a list of a couple movies!
And it wasn't Disney, it was live actionOkay, to Meg, the name was Wee SIng in Sillyville! Its up on youtube!

A fellow worker started rumors in the workplace about me, I went to him and asked that he not do this to me. He was angry over missing 10 minutes of his lunch. It was almost 2:00 pm and I still had not had a 1st break! He had not paged me, so how was I to know that he missed 10 minutes?! I wasn't availiable because I was assigned to do another duty by my boss. For 8 years these people had been trying to get rid of the only black female in the company, I hate racist! Why must we have to come down to race in this day and age?! I was married to a white man for god's sake! My father was white and my kids are mixed! Why do we label others?!

moreResolved Question: Will you read this the second part of the what is IQ? ADd your comments, please?
Here is something else which will affect your IQ , or academic work.
Asthma. No 02 to your brain. Respiratory problems. Get them takenc care of.
Learn from this. In the very lower grades of elementary...I was on fire to lear go to school. I had been sneaking off to go there, playing at recess. I wasnot really sneaking. SHE knew where I was, lurking,waiting Nosing, meddling. Imagine that. I loved her, but she was something else.I just wish she had opened her mouth and spit it out in plain English. I have a multiracial family. My Dad was though to be Jewish and German. My Mom was darkskinned, with black hair, and they called her whatever they deemed appropriate for the situation. Very intelligent
But she and her sisters would drive you stark raving mad trying to figure them out. parents, regardless. Dad was blind, but he heard everySINGLE THING.
In those lower grades, I had a test. I believe it must have been IQ, best as I recall, it must have been. I did not believe I was that fat. That is awfully fat, and it was not the draw a man. I did not change my behavior. I was not misbehaving, but they decided because of that and other, that I could just do it myself. Had my siblings discovered fire they would not have shared it withme.
Then in about fourth grade some inappropriate touching went on. I DID NOT start it. I DID NOT LIKE IT. I was beaten half to death. It all took up less than a minute, and we did not have sex. I did not want anything to do with girls. I drew
a stick picture of this guy with a long drooping dick. Looked rather likehe was
peeing. I don't know if the "Good enough:" draw a man was intented then, or they graded it there, because I became profoundly retarded. I couldn't do anything right. I made good scores and grades, but I did not get them.
I didn't flunk. Moving right along, everyone thinks I am retarded? I read everything I get my hands on. This is an impoverished one room school. I think we are all above average there. Some phenomena going on, for real. These are not all white people...so screw your racial superiority...well whites, poor whites have a gross disadvantage also. These are perhaps mixed. Czech, Polish, Native, mixed black, Jewish? In the most prejudiced place on earth.

big school which has all the resources. They didn't think I could do it, we could do it. I did. I think I did well. It was not the least difficult. I think they said I cheated, and mocked me. I did not cheat. Liars. Did they say I cheated? I don't know. Graduated. A;ll the way thorugh hs I was treated terribly. (Mixed race, I have a Japanese sister-in-law, had a Thai sister in law, may have had a Spanish sister-in-law.I have naturally blond hair. I was called a dumb blond.I was also very very lied on about behavior. Framed for cheating. I did not.)) Well....Senior year, we had a little problem, I did. I was given another test. This is lower than the original , but I have improved. It was 119. I piddled because I did not know to hurry. I did not cheat.
This is one of those one page test. MY goodness. I was so happy. I though maybe I was actually intelligent. I went home and told my Mom, stupid me.
Stupid. She told someone. The ones my Mom talked to, unknown to Mom,
talked to others. Some of these people very much did not want me to go
to college, be a virgin, or anything else.
There are many slips between pencil and paper.
See. Don't let it kill you either way. Don't sit around on your IQ if it is high or low. If it is low, get it up. Study, work. Get tutors. It is not written in stone. Get a physical. Get healthy, well nourished, clean, sober. Those matter.
Diet is so important. Some people cannot eat sugar. It is not just
with ADD, I do not have ADD. Fear, stress mimics ADD. I can handle sugar sometimes. Some people get messed up thinking with too much PROTEIN... KIDNEY problems, failure, and you cannot think. Your body is full of poison. Why would they be taking testBecause they are not dying yet. Are you full of fluid, edema. Your brain is not going to work quite so well, people. Yes kids have these problems, young
adults. So, this or these factors are not allowed for on that skewed curve, that bell curve, that score. . People walk around witHad teenagers done that, no one would have thought anything of it. Just little kids with not enough to challenge or occupy them, or to hold their interest.
I was not a thief,not a bully. I did not have sex. They did not blackmail me.Sorry for the redundancy. I didn't see I had repeated myself. OOOOOPPPPSOh. Many yrs later. Took the SAt/or ACT. On this test,there was a question which had a tall cannister, with holes at different levels on the tall cylindrical cannister.
The question was, which one of the holes at which level would spurt the water out further. I didn't bomb the test. I was pleasantly surprised I did as well as I did. I could have done better had I prepared. Isn't knowing that about the holes going to help us in life?I think it was personalized over the picture I drew. I think I was not paranoid. I really was not. Never had that problem, suspicions yes, paranoia, no. I think it was a threat. This thought that I could be being threatened proved very well to be true.

Impacts of African American Writers on the 21st Century
“So will my page be colored that I write?
Being me, it will not be white.
But it will be
a part of you, instructor.
You are white---
yet a part of me, as I am a part of you.
That’s American.
Sometimes perhaps you don’t want to be a part of me.
Nor do I often want to be a part of you.
But we are, that’s true!
As I learn from you, I guess you learn from me---
although your older--- and white---
and somewhat more free”
(Langston Hughes, Theme for English B).
The United States has been enriched culturally by immigrants from many nations. The Harlem Renaissance was a time during the 1920s and early 1930s in the New York neighborhood of Harlem when African American writers from backgrounds across the cultural spectrum and realm of social thought challenged white paternalism and racism. These artists and intellectuals resisted assimilation and asserted their freedom to express themselves on their own terms. They explored their identities as black Americans and celebrated their culture that emerged from slavery as well as their ties to Africa. African-Americans have made contributions and inspired change in the American lifestyle, principally culturally in the areas of literature, art, foods, music, language, sports and technological innovation. By means of inveteration and dissemination of proclivity through pithy poems, short stories and other works, African American writers engendered a change in social rules such as racial integration, individual rights, and values
---America as a nation has come a long way concerning social rules. It used to be that segregated schools, separate bus seats, bathrooms and drinking fountains were not uncommon. There were racial exclusions in employment and businesses as well as real estate and private memberships. The Cotton Club was a famous night club in New York City that operated during Prohibition. The club featured many of the greatest African American entertainers of the time yet generally denied admission to blacks. African American writers such as Zora Neale Hurston described racial discrimination and its impact of her life in her “How It Feels To Be Colored Me” essay: “Someone is always at my elbow reminding me that I am the granddaughter of slaves. It fails to register depression within me…Sometimes, I feel discriminated against, but it does not make me angry. It merely astonishes me. How can any deny themselves the pleasure of my company? It’s beyond me.” Today, there are no separate schools, neighborhoods, or drinking fountains between whites and African Americans. Racial integration can be seen, for example, on TV with commercials including both white people and African Americans. When white people read the works of the Harlem Renaissance, perhaps they felt chagrin for their treatment toward African Americans.
---African American writers in the Harlem Renaissance represented and responded to the ubiquitous racialized violence and racial oppression in the period between the end of Reconstruction and the beginning of World War I. The fought for equality and freedom through their literature and so social standards have improved in their favor. “We know through painful experience that freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed” (Martin Luther King, Jr.). Values addressed in literature of the Harlem Renaissance were not only of equality and freedom, but the various strategies of the writers reflected all genres of human evaluation. For instance, Arna Bontemps wrote a short story titled, “A Summer Tragedy,” about an old couple who planned to commit suicide. The story addressed issues and ideas about aging and death, health and disability, measure of the value of life, family, and love. Langston Hughes wrote the poem, “Mother to Son,” an austere poem about the simple reality that life is not easy, and that one must persevere. “When I read great literature, great drama, speeches or sermons, I feel that the human mind has not achieved anything greater than the ability to share feelings and thoughts through language” (James Earl Jones). African American writers used many approaches and writing styles to convey their messages about values.
---Today, African Americans have many more individual and social rights; those changes were indirectly and fundamentally brought about by their writing during the Harlem Renaissance. It influenced and inspired black and white people. African Americans are allowed to enlist in the U.S. Armed Forces and work positions in the government (including attorney general and president). Furthermore, schools and buses are desegregated. African Americans can

OK I'm reposting my question. I posted some additional details like two minutes after I posted my question, it didn't show up on everyone's page. I apologise.. And the reason I said 'WAIT FOR IT' wasn't to wait for the damn question. IT'S AN EXPRESSION PEOPLE USE.
Anyway...
I'm African and live in the UK was born in Europe etc. etc.
My friends are predominantly Indian, white and Pakistani. Funny thing is, I haven't and I can swear to you that I have never been bullied or racially bullied by whites and Asians in this country.
The only people I faced a very hard time with were the Black British.
I'd be called Somalian and I would be called names, had stuff thrown at me, just really bad bullying.
I just wanted to share this. Has anyone else experienced bad bullying from their own kind? Or why do you think this happened? Why do you think they did this?And I'm just asking this for the sake of it.
To add onto it, I always kept my head down at secondary school, worked hard for my grades, ended up with A's, was really quiet and not really into the stuff the other black girls did.They played with guys and did other silly things.
Some people were cool but some of them were just so bad. Like this one girl harrassed me for so long and when I stood up against her she got angry. LMAO. I'm sorry I'm not spineless if I keep my mouth shut.
I don't want to cause any division or so. It's just a genuine question.What do you mean, that's rich?
I was 12/14 when this happened but this even continued when I was 16.
I do see other blacks no matter where they are as my people because at the end of the day the only thing that separates me from blacks is the fact that they have been relocated through slavery etc.I've been accused as white as well.
People have told me I'm like an oreo.
Geez.. And that's because I'm just... I don't know what to call it I guess.

Target Audience
The Forevermark advertisement adopts numerous ideologies in order to sell their products to their selected target audience. As this company more often than not targets women as their merchandise is deigned for females this advertisement is out to break the trend. This advertisement in particular the company takes a different approach by targeting males. Originally the producer of the However, the advertisement doesn’t just target any old man, but more specifically the advertisement targets wealthy males. Therefore the advertisement is specifically targeting upper class males with a high income. One of the ideologies adopted is the assumed that wealthy people are the only people in today’s society the have the opportunities to be happy and trouble free. This is due to the fact that all of the products from the Forevermark Company are expensive. However, the price assumption is a gap filled by the viewer right from the moment the audience see the diamond bracelet displayed at the top of the advertisement. Men who want to please their partner and bring romance back into their relationship would be attracted to this advertisement. Forevermark has adapted this advertisement so that it targets married males who may have any issues with their partner. In a way the advertisement relates back traditional family ideologies, as it assumed that the husband goes off to work, and therefore has the money to be able to spoil his partner. Therefore it’s also assumed that it’s the male’s responsibility to please the females and furthermore resolve any relationship issues.
Invited Reading
The Foverevermark advertisement targets men and has many different meanings behind it. The advertisement portrays many subconscious messages to the viewer without them even realising. Just by looking at the advert the obvious invited reading is “this product is produced to make your partner/ wife appreciate you again”. This is represented by the slogan saying "Hey, what do you know, she thinks your funny again". Thus implying that the solitary way to please her is to purchase their product. The producer of the advertisement is also trying to convey the message that their product is what every women wants and that this will make them happy no matter what the circumstances. To appeal to the viewer the advertisement relates back to idea wealthy people are the only people who have the opportunity to be happy and trouble free.
Visual Techniques
Appealing to men through an advertisement with lots of details is a difficult undertaking as most men would be more interested in something simple in comparison to females who would rather the opposite. In order to fulfil the objective of targeting these men the producer of the advertisement has used many visual techniques. The advertisement is set out as a single visual with a plain black background, with only a thing white border. Using the plain black and white background the producer was targeting the selected audience. All the text is set out in bold, centred, capitalised text. A single underline is also under the text. The single picture of the diamond bracelet at the top of the page isn’t directly appealing to the men but rather just displaying the product. The plain blacks and whites may appeal to some men as if they are business men as the colours used are set out to appear professional. At the bottom of the advertisement, just above the border, the company’s slogan and logo are displayed in slightly smaller text however still follows the trend of being white and bold.
Language Techniques
The language featuring in the Fovevermark advertisement is the substantial catch phrase which is found at in the centre. The catch phrases states Hey, what do you know, she thinks your funny again". The way this catch phrase intrigues the selected target audience is through humour. As the advertisement is targeted at men the humour used in the catch phrase is more appealing to men as they will be more likely to appreciate the joke and therefore become intrigued in the advertisement. Men over women are more likely to respond to a humorous advertisement and that is why the producer has made the main focus humorous. Wit humour therefore is the main language technique used. The only other language used is the company’s slogan which is displayed at the bottom of the advertisement with the logo. It states “A diamond is forever”. Subliminal messages are conveyed from this slogan. The slogan is basically conveying the message that if their product is bought then the couple’s relationship will last forever just as the diamond will. This created desire for the product.
Gaps and Silences
The two main silences in the advertisement are the women’s point of view and middle class people. This advertiseme
