I have a friend that have a son.. One time he, while sitting down with his Indian friends, commented about someone who was having dark skin passing by. He said... "His skin is like Indians..." Then their friend suddenly got angry and told the parents about it. Their parents got angry also until they brought it up to the faculty.. Why?? Why it bothered them so much? I am here, in International dormitory, with many people from 21 country.. I never..never.. think about our race differences. But when that issue came, I am becoming aware of some "sensitive part" that some race have... Can you, I really appreciate if you know for sure not just guessing, help me to understand this? Thx

I've currently got Asus P5NSLI, since when I bought it, I didn't even consider overclocking. Now, however, I want to pull more power out of the chip, so I've started looking around for a better board. I've read that boards with nforce 570 chipset are not good for overclocking. And I'll probably have to agree with that, since when I tried to use the on-board overclocking feature, the computer got stuck and I had to reset BIOS so that it'd work again.
What should I be looking at when buying, considering I've never done overclocking? Not looking for features; stability and simplicity are my main concerns. Also, don't want to push that cpu too far, only up to 3Ghz or so. Will use it with Kingston 1Gb 667Mhz DDR2, might upgrade to 2Gb yet unlikely due to little gain compared to the price.
Looking to spend under $220.
I'm not planning to buy right now, waiting for something to come out that will fit all criteria, so right now just looking for general info.

For HP fans. My theory is that R.A.B. is Andromeda Black.... we don't now her first name, so its likely she could prefer to use her middle name. Her daughter prefers to use her last name, Tonks, rather than her first name, Nymphadora.
Any thoughts?

I'm on the third time of the treatment of Accutane for my acne. I went on Acutane when I was 12, 14, and now. The same thing happens everytime. Accutane will make my Acne go away for about a year and then it ends up coming back to where I started before I took it. Bad acne everywhere. I use all kind of washes too. Any suggestions?

My PC is a brand-new Windows XP Home Edition, and it frequently crashes, freezes-up, or slows down to a snail's pace, very much like I had a Dial-up instead of DSL Broadband. These things occur not just Online, but Offline, as well. My PC needs help desperately, and so do I, before I junk it or smash it. I'm at my wits end as to what to do since I'm new to computing. Thank You.

I have been having a hard time being affectionate towards my husband. I have a 4 year old from a previous marriage and pregnant with my husbands child. He seldom helps around the house much and after I work all day I feel this need to clean. I end up feeling very put out which leads to me staying away from him. I 've asked him to help- but he says his ADD keeps him from being able to do house cleaning. Not that that's the main issue- but I am just wondering how can i regain that honeymoon stage? I miss it. He tends to make snide comments which hurts my feelings and makes me feel unwanted. Help me.

Such as the Trinity:
The New Catholic Encyclopedia states: “The formulation ‘one God in three Persons’ was not solidly established, certainly not fully assimilated into Christian life and its profession of faith, prior to the end of the 4th century. But it is precisely this formulation that has first claim to the title the Trinitarian dogma. Among the Apostolic Fathers, there had been nothing even remotely approaching such a mentality or perspective.”—(1967), Vol. XIV, p. 299.

Or the cross:
“The shape of the [two-beamed cross] had its origin in ancient Chaldea, and was used as the symbol of the god Tammuz (being in the shape of the mystic Tau, the initial of his name) in that country and in adjacent lands, including Egypt. By the middle of the 3rd cent. A.D. the churches had either departed from, or had travestied, certain doctrines of the Christian faith. In order to increase the prestige of the apostate ecclesiastical system pagans were received into the churches apart from

I grew up in Metropolitan DC. I dated a Muslim. I had Muslim neighbors. I had Muslim classmates. I taught some Muslims in Virginia. Now, I live in Iowa where there are very few Muslims, and I teach at a Christian school. I have some concerns about how these children are being exposed to Islam. The children have been taught to fear, and in some cases, HATE Muslims. Apparently the children are being taught that it's not a sin for Muslims to kill non-Muslims. Oh, and there are other negative things the children are learning. The outcome truly scares me, as I heard one of the students say, "I don't associate with Muslims...I mean terrorists." Another bluntly stated that, "Islam is a BAD religion."
Does this worry you? I'm against the way these children have been taught about Islam. How do I counteract? I want the children to learn about and accept the culture, not to begin hating the religion!
