Back during the Bettie Page and Marilyn Monroe days were there any ethnic (Puerto Rican, Brazilian, Spaniard, etc...) pin-up models?

We know there was a Whitechapel murderer, probably more than one, but did Jack the Ripper exist or was he a media creation? Or was Jack the Ripper merely a name to attach to the murders in the East End in the fall of 1888?

I am trying to translate a Spanish poem. The sentence is "dos calcetines suaves como liebres", which means "two socks smooth as a hare". It doesn't sound good in English, so I want to replace "hare" with another animal. Any suggestions?

Your Grace is Overwhelming
August 27, 2006

Your grace is overwhelming
It brings me to my knees
I bow my head and cry to God
Lord forgive me please.

I have not listened to Your Word
I’ve lived my life my way
I’ve surrounded myself with sinful things
I give them up today

My life has been so full of hurt
Abuse, foul words, and pain
Can You ever forgive me?
Or my very life will you disdain?

How could you forgive such sinful things?
Could this grace I hear about be true?
Jesus did die on the cross
A way for me to You

I knew that you were real my Lord
I was taught of you in church
But my life it got so out of hand
Oh nothing stopped the hurts

I turned to drugs and love of man
To calm the pain of past
But with each new choice I made
I seemed to sink so fast

Deeper in this life of sin
Further from your way
Only when all else had failed
I’d bow my head to pray

But now I seek your face my Lord
I’ve repented for my sins
I now live my life for You
And now my life begins

I hung my head in shame so long
How could you forgive it all?
All the sinful things I’ve done
My Jesus took them all

For I am now forgiven
I’m growing in Your Word
I long to take each breath for You
My gracious Father I now serve

I will share the Grace of God
With everyone I meet
I will tell of His great love
To people on the streets

Your grace is overwhelming
It brings me to my knees
As the tears stream down my face
You’ve given me true peace

Psalm 103:8-13
8 The Lord is compassionate and gracious; slow to anger, abounding in love. 9 He will not always accuse, nor will he harbor his anger forever; 10 he does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities. 11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth. So great is his love for those who fear Him; 12 as far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us. 13 As a father has compassion on
His children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him

Everyone can agree on something painful. SMASHING YOUR HAND WITH A HAMMER. but sometimes things that bring pleasure also come with a heaping helping of guilt so I would argue that pleasure is subjective, and NOT a true opposite of pain

It doesn't have to be your favourite book, but something that stayed with you for a long time after reading, or something that means a lot to you.

At least two thirds of our miseries spring from human stupidity, human malice and those great motivators and justifiers of malice and stupidity, idealism, dogmatism and proselytizing zeal on behalf of religious or political idols.
