He is Black and adopted into a white family and he has always been okay with that. I have tried to explain to him that not all people feel like we do. Now he wants to date a Lebaneze girl and her parents forbid it they are not even allowed to talk to each other. I asked the girl what the problem was and she said her parents don't like it because they are of different races. My son said they can't be prejudice they aren't white.
how do I explain to him that it is not always a black, white thing. That prejudice come in all shapes, colors, and sizes.

Someone likes me. Actually, two people used to like me. But now the one person is going out with someone else, and the other person seems to like other people along with me, more TeenVoque material girls. The person going out with someone else is going out with this tall, willowy, almost perfect-looking girl. I think I'm pretty, my height is about average, but I'm not into all the common trends around now. I'm more of a country girl at heart, and I dress in jeans and T-shirts from places like Old Navy. They aren't ugly, but they are nothing like Abercrombie. I guess u could say I'm shy and awkward. I can never find just the right thing to say. So is there something wrong with me? Is there something wrong with being quiet and different with brown eyes and dirty blonde hair in a suburban shallow middle school? Is there a single person on earth who prefers brown eyes over blue?

I parked in a side street off a main road. I was parked near the end of a road where it meets the main road and received a parking fine. I have parked here nearly every day for months and this is the first fine I have received. There were no yellow lines, there were no signs explaining any parking rules and I had left plenty of space at the end of the road so that any passers by wishing to cross the side street did not have to walk around my car to do so.

Can I appeal againts this parking fine?

Since Jesus is supposedly God and therefore his own father does he need to give him anything? This is all very confusing.

We understands that China is strong in both military and economy. Nevetheless, we also the noted the importance of Hong Kongers' voice and that only a truely independent Hong Kong can thus ensure this.

Hence, no matter how strong China is, we will continue to fight for formal Hong Kong Independent.

Is it possible for a psychopath to be 'personable,' like the great American author Kurt Vonnegut Jr. said, before he died?
http://books.guardian.co.uk/extracts/story/0,,1691370,00.html

If you felt you could sit down and have a beer with a guy who calls himself the 'decider', would you ignore evidence that he authorized the mass murder of 3000 of your citizens, to garner support for wars, any wars, and missile defense systems your country cannot afford, and doesn't need?
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5382746000790234530&q=david+ray+griffin+myth+reality&hl=en

Would you ignore the hundreds of thousands of other deaths caused (or justify them), the millions of refugees created (and more enemies), the billions of dollars of debt caused by unnecessary wars?

Would you attack people who pointed out that this guy is a psychopath, because you feel you could have a beer with him?

When I first discovered my husband of 19 years was cheating, I took it very badly to say the least. 18 months later, we are still together although he stays in our house 4 days a week and 3 days in his apartment to be near to his work. I should in a way be pleased that he didn't leave me for the other woman as such. He has never said much about the affair except that it is over and that he is not willing to commit to anyone, although he is married to me. When he comes over we carry on as if nothing has happened, but he has never said he is staying because he loves me. If I ask him he answers, if you can't work it out then I can't help you. The problem now is that I am finding it difficult to respond to him and to take the initiative with him. I seem to have gone very quiet and hardly ever make a first move with him. Whenever he shows affection, I tend to think that he is pretending. Why am I behaving like a fool when I wanted him to stay? Is it his motives I am wary of

When my husband and I first got married we racked up my credit cards. It's now, 2 kids and 3 years later. We havent paid anything since 2004. I have about 30,000 on credit cards. More than we can pay. Will this just fall of my credit, the money owed? or just the negative comments? I am debating on waiting and not paying or filing bankruptcy. Basicalymy only options. Does anyone knowhow this works? or know the rules on this?
Thank You so much!

I'm asking a serious question. I think a lot of modern evangelists have the wrong idea. They have an us and them mentality and I don't agree with that. I believe that all are loved by God and deserve my respect.

Should I do with action? Should I have a low-key open discussion? What are your thoughts?

Did anyone see the guest on Oprah and his book about the test they gave people to see if they were unconsciously a bit racist?
The test had people sorting the words "good" on a screen to the left and "bad" to the right. It then had people sort white faces to the left and black to the right.

It then had people sort faces in a way that showed people having slightly more difficulty placing black faces on the "good" side, by reversing the direction faces would be sorted. This was supposed to expose an unconscious prejudice.
I know prejudice is a real thing, but my question is, isn't there an obvious flaw here? Didn't priming people to sort the face to one side create the slight difficulty in switching over to doing it on the other side? I want to see the results of having people sort black to the left (or "good") first, and then switch to doing white to the left.

Thoughts?

I had an ingrown toe nail that was pretty infected before I went to my doctor to have it removed. My dog insisted on licking it whenever it got the chance. It would gross me out and I had to always have bandages and socks on until it was totally healed.

My friend seems to think that a turbocharged eagle talon could beat a lingenfelter 427 dual turbo charged corvette. He says the corvette could beat it in a straight line, but on a track with minimal straight stretch the talon would blow the doos of the high powered vette. His reasoning is that the talon is all wheel drive. However, I refuse to believe this. I have driven in corvettes b4 and I know that you can take big curves at 75 and not even feel it. so what do you think?? Is it really safe to say a one of the most powerful corvettes would never be able to take a eagle talon on a track?

There was no immediate reaction from the bill's numerous Senate critics, who have consistently attacked the legislation as conferring amnesty on the estimated 12 million illegal immigrants living in the country.
At the White House, spokesman Scott Stanzel said, "We are encouraged by the announcement from Senate leaders that comprehensive immigration reform will be brought back up for consideration."
On Tuesday, the president made a rare visit to the Capitol to ask Republican senators to give the bill a second chance. Two days later, responding to a request from pivotal GOP senators, he threw his support behind $4.4 billion in immediate funding for "securing our borders and enforcing our laws at the work site." As drafted, the legislation called for the money to become available over a period of several years.
Under a plan that key lawmakers presented to Reid and McConnell, Republicans and Democrats each will have 10-12 opportunities to amend the measure, with the hope that they will then combine to provide the 60 votes needed to overcome a filibuster by die-hard opponents.
Officials said the Bush-backed plan for accelerated funding would be among the changes to be voted on. So, too, a proposal by Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison, R-Texas, to toughen a requirement for illegal immigrants to return to their home country before gaining legal status.
Bush is leaning on the Republicans to support his Amnesty plan.
