I want the gist of the book written by Lawrence Cohen of the Department of Anthropology, University of California, Berkeley: 'No Aging in India', can someone debrief me about this book and the chief concept and method that have been employed by this medical anthropologist who has studies aging in Varanasi and other cities in North India. Unable to find a copy of this book I am posting this question. this question can be taken up by anthropologists

I have a teenage son who is going to turn 17 soon. He is a very nice and lovable young man, loved by his friends and his teachers.
He is an American-Russian kid, into music -metal/rock-, doing great at school and having good time here in the US.
However, Mexican kids and their friends keep trying to start fights with him for no reason. Sometimes they make fun of his English accent. My son keeps avoiding them not because he is weak - He is a well built kid - but because he does not want to get in any kind of violent act.
Do not get me wrong people. I have nothing against Mexicans or any other Hispanic people, they are nice and decent. However, what is going on with some kids there.
Me myself I am an American-Russian woman. However, some of us were born somewhere else and have accents.
Again, my friends don’t get me wrong just answer me: what is going on?
Many thanks for your kind answers.

Aren't they sinners too? Do you think it's O.K. to confess directly to God if truly sorry. Asking b/c my son just made his first reconciliation, and, as we were last in line, the mediator said: Parents are welcome to confess as well, and it would be a good example to the kids to do so. Well, I ran for the hills - haven't gone in 15 years and wouldn't even know what to do.

I get nervous around guys. I'm not ugly..I feel like I'm pretty pretty actually. I'm not even super shy, I just get really shy around guys when I'm meeting them. I don't know how to get past small talk and into a real friendship where it's not awkward for me to hang out. what can I do? and do guys like it when a girl gets nervous around them or do they just think she's retarded!?

I am looking to buy a Smart Parts Ion. I'd love to get a nitro tank, but the nearest fill station for nitro is over an hour away. Can I use CO2 for it? Are there any attachments needed for using CO2? Or is there just no way around it? Thanks

are there any problems with using them?
what are the problems?
are there unlimited ip's that they can use or is it a limited number?
do they eventually run out?
why is it a good idea to use other ips and not your own?

Alot of people say they are christians. But they do not seek to be at peace with all people, they do not act with love, they do not give what they have to the needy.

And they have hurt you.

Will you forgive us for being such sorry examples?
