Sice this lady is suing Imus and stating it is because he called her a Ho and it ruined her rep, I just want to know why she isnt suing the REAL person who said the term Ho. I heard the radio broadcast on CNN when all this hit the fan in the first place and I heard someone say they were a bunch of Ho's and then a bunch of laughing and then Imus said, "yeah a bunch of nappy headed hos" in all the hubbub about this i have not heard of anyone else getting in trouble about the ho comment, i had always assumed the real outrage was over them being called "nappy-headed" due to the fact it was "racist" or whatever. I mean honestly had they all been white and blonde and he called them dumb blonds there wouldnt have been a problem now would there have been?

When I turn 18 years old I want to move out and buy my first car. But I was thinking about it if I want move out and go to college. What type of job is good paying that can balance out college too. I really want to be self establish. My parents are willing to pay for college and my car. But I really don't want that.



So my question is what do you think is a good paying job for a college student?

Isn't that what the whole immigration issue is about?

Business doesn't want to pay a decent wage.

Consumers don't want expensive produce.

Government will tell you Americans don't want the jobs.

But the bottom line is cheap labor. The phrase "cheap labor" is a myth, a farce, and a lie. there is no such thing as "cheap labor."

Take, for example, an illegal alien with a wife and five children. He takes a job for $5.00 or $6.00/hour. At that wage, with six dependents, he pays no income tax, yet at the end of the year, if he files an Income Tax Return, he gets an "earned income credit" of up to $3,200 free.

He qualifies for Section 8 housing and subsidized rent.

He qualifies for food stamps.

He qualifies for free (no deductible, no co-pay) health care.

His children get free breakfasts and lunches at school.

He requires bilingual teachers and books.

He qualifies for relief from high energy bills.

I'm a young working computer professional with a growing investment portfolio. I take most of my financial adviser's advice on what funds to pick, but he's put a substantial amount of my investment money into Asian mutual funds. Given some the geopolitical issues with China and Chinese products (China's growing military spending, North American trade deficits, China's poor environmental policy, and a growing track record of unsafe/dangerous products -- toothpaste, pet food, toys, etc, etc), I've gotten to the point where I consider holding these investments to be, at best, somewhat unethical. This is not a financially motivated question; It's an ethical one. I would like some advice/guidance on what would be good investments into North American companies dedicated to developing the products and technology of greener future. I'm still looking for returns on my investments dollars, but I'd like to know I'm part of the solution, not the problem. What are the right investments for me?

I noticed a lot of Ambulace and Police vehicles have they're letters backwards, in other words they are only correct if you read them in a mirror. Why is that?

I had always heard that Jesus carried his own cross. In fact there is at least one common saying based on it.

A friend of mine just told me that there is some confusion about that; he said only one passage said that Jesus carried the cross, all the others described someone else doing it.

Should I change my mental image of the crucifiction?

Southern Sunrise
Color of lemon, mango, peach,
These storybook villas
Still dream behind
Shutters, thier balconies
Fine as hand-
Made lace, or a leaf-and-flower pen-sketch.
Tilting with the winds,
On arrowy stems,
Pineapple-barked,
A green crescent of palms
Sends up its forked
Firework of fronds.
A quartz-clear dawn
Inch by bright inch
Gilds all our Avenue,
And out of the blue drench
Of Angels' Bay
Rises the round red watermelon sun.
--> It was written in 1856.
I think it's just a romantisized depiction of the sunset. It makes everything seem delicate(?). Whereas in the North, everything was factories, the south still retained it's natural beauty according to the poet. I think it's another version of books depicting southern life as sophisticated, that came out around the civil war era.

I got a group of 6-8 people going to Vegas. Everyone in their mid 20s now making decent salaries, but of course saving $ is always cool too, and how important is the room in Vegas really? I'm assigned the task of booking the hotel room(s), my options are:

A) 2 standard rooms - everyone's got a bed, no sneaking needed.
B) 1 BIG Suite - Most have a bed/sofa, few may have to sleep on the floor..some sneaking may be necessary...but we'll have a suite to party in...maybe.

What would you choose and why?
