Usually in the media, when they talk about interracial relationships, most of the time it consist of a white person and a black person. And maybe once in a while, you'll hear or read about "Black/Other" or "White/Other".

Does anyone know why that is?

What are my chances to play high school, college golf?

I am 14 years old, Freshman in high school. I practice on the range every day for 4-5 hours with 1 hour of short game/bunker practice. Also another hour for putting. My handicap is a 12 right now. The handicap should go down because I am planning on getting a few lessons. My golf clubs are Taylormade, Callaway, and Odyssey and top of the line, custom fitted. I practice alot and am playing way better and consistantly. My only down side is I'm pretty small and can only drive about 225-235 yards. I started lifting weights however so I should get stronger. I also am going to us the Momentus Power Hitter to build up my clubhead speed. I go to De La Salle High School in California. Their Varsity golf team won the state championship last year but I'm only trying for J.V. or Freshman.

Oh yeah, I've only been playing for 8 months.

I have a 3.92 GPA

My son is in honor choir at school. He's 8 years old. His teacher is making the class sing Christian songs for the holidays. This is a public school not private. I thought there was a law against this. Is this a part of seperating church from goverment? I thought religion was not allowed in public schools.

I find it offense for many reasons, mainly because there are more than one religion at the school, not all the people there are Christians. Also I don't want the school teaching him about God, that's my job. He's come home from school on Halloween saying that it was the Devils birthday and we should not celebrate it. Of course I told him that was false but he was still worried.

Isn't it illegal to make them sing songs that convey one religion. I think if they sung other songs that are for other religions maybe it wouldn't be as bad. But according to the school being a Christian is the only way to go. I thought this was illegal?

When I get my degree, I think I will probably go into private practice. I like the idea of making your own hours and such.

I'd like to know from you people in private practice what you do about this. How do you set up your hours? Do you work 40 hours a week? Do you work weekends? Make good money?

I mean honestly, don't we have enough freakin' Emmas in the world by now? There are 5 of them in my daughters' class! Do yourself a favor... if you don't want 28 people responding to you when you call your daughter's name, name her something OTHER than Emma, Emily, Hannah, and Madison!

A nun and a priest were crossing the Sahara desert on a camel. On the
third day out the camel suddenly dropped dead without warning.

After dusting themselves off, the nun and the priest surveyed their
situation. After a long period of silence, the priest spoke.

"Well sister, this looks pretty grim."

"I know father.", the nun answered.

"In fact, I don't think it is likely that we can survive more than a
day
or two."

"I agree." said the nun.

"Sister, since we are unlikely to make it out of here alive, would you
do something for me?"

"Anything father."

"I have never seen a woman's breasts and I was wondering if I might see

yours."

"Well, under the circumstances I don't see that it would do any harm."

The nun opened her habit and the priest enjoyed the sight of her
shapely
breasts, commenting frequently on their beauty.

"Sister would you mind if I touched them ?"

She consented and he fondled them for several minutes.

"Father, could I ask something of you?"

"Yes sister ?"

"I have never seen a man's penis. Could I see yours ?"

"I suppose that would be Ok", the priest replied lifting his robe.

"Oh father, may I touch it ?"

The priest consented and after a few minutes of fondling he was
sporting
a huge erection.

"Sister, you know that if I insert my penis in the right place, it can
give life."

"Is that true father?"

"Yes it is, sister."

"Then why don't you stick it up that camel's *** so we can get the ****

out of here ?"

I have some questions about some calculus problems. If anyone could explain to me how they are done it would be much appreciated:
A) If f(x) = x^3, find an expression for d/dx [f(g(x))].

B) Find dy/dx for sin(xy) = y.

C) Consider the curve given by y^3 + 5x^2y - 18 = 0.
Write an equation for the line tangent to the curve at the point (1,2).

D) If x and y are both differentiable functions of t, and xy = 20, find
x'(t) when y'(t) = 10 and x = 2.

E) Given that t, k, and a are constants, and that f(x) = a - 2kx, find f'(t).

F) If f'(a) does NOT exist, which of the following MUST be true? If false, show an example of a graph where it is false.
1. f(x)is discontinuousat x = a
2. the limit as x-->a of f(x) does not exist
3. f(x) has a vertical tangent at x = a
4. f(x) has a "hole" at x = a
5. none of the above is necessarily true.

Thanks for any help you can give me!!!

I wish (the hospital i work for wishes) to copy a persons medical records...transfer it into digital form (pdf) burn it to a CD and give it to another agency (health insurance company) .
Im fairly certain it ought to be encrypted (or protected in some way)...but my boss says no...it doesnt ...just do it.
Err...Im the IT manager..and i havent come across this scenario before...anyone point me to something "Official".
To make the situation even more interesting...Im in GERMANY...so i will have to find a similar ruling in the Datenschutzgesetz.
