Interesting study (apparently a few of these researchers have come to the same conclusion)

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,293777,00.html

Light-eyed individuals and even light-eyed animals perform better at behaviors requiring delay, self-pacing, or non-reactors, while dark-eyed individuals and animals perform better at behaviors requiring speed, sensitivity or reactivity.

I paid a bill balance in june of 07. It was only $70.00 dollars. Anyway, til this day they have not cleared that balance. I have even paid off a higher balance after that. I faxed all the paperwork and proof the check cleared. They still have not cleared it and still are asking the same exact questions of when it was paid. They've told me they received my fax copy of the cleared check and say it has to be investigated again. What is wrong with these people at Dell? And, they don't even operate in the U.S. People are dying for jobs here in the U.S. and their giving them to other countries. Anyway, I want it known that I would never recommend Dell Financial and that people should know that there customer service is really bad.

I mean, are there "nominees" and do the possible winners know they might win or is it just a surprise to them?

As many of you are aware, Al Gore has recently received the Nobel Peace Prize for helping the world realize the potential destructiveness of global warming. Do you think he's doing this because he wants to gain a reputation, or does he actually care about the issue?

After all, all he did was make a movie and write a book and make a bunch of speeches.. Lots of people do that.

I am not getting why these six thugs are being treated like the victims when they are the ones who beat up that white guy. Talk about blaming the victim. NO - I'm not a racist, I'm not even all white myself, but what's fair is fair, and why shouldn't those hoodlums go to jail?????????? so weird....

For instance, to submit a business article/press release, do I specifically have to contact the business department? Or can I just contact the newsroom? Will the newsroom just refer me to the business department?

Schools, hospitals have been built in Iraq. Basra has peace. Ofcourse he got rid of the most evil Tyrant since Adolf Hitler. He stopped continued genocide and chemical mass murder of the Iraqi people by Hussein.

He also gave billions to Africa for AIDS.

Senator "Dingy" Reid recently got up on the senate floor and denouced Rush Limbaugh for calling soldiers who speak out against the war "phoney." This was however, proven very false. In fact Reid was sited as saying that Rush was talking about 3 soldiers mentioned in a New York times article. However, that article did not run till the following day. So since we see the "Dingy" Reid was wrong and the media was wrong and "Media Matters" was wrong. Why hasn't Reid appologized for insulting a private citizen on the hollowed halls of the Senate floor?

Turkey has recalled its ambassador from Washington after a US congressional committee voted to recognise the mass killing of Armenians during World War I as genocide. Turkey denies claims it was genocide. They must claim this genocide, in order to join the EU. Can someone tell me y they cant accept it? and y is it such a big deal?

The news clip in this article gives a complete description of the car, but not one mention of the attempted kidnapper's appearance. What if it had been a white dude trying to take a black girl?
Black rapists are targeting white females, did you even know that?
The article--> http://www1.wsvn.com/news/articles/local/MI64107/
U.S. Dept. of Justice Statistics link ---> http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/pub/pdf/cvus05.pdf
If that's too much for your mind to comprehend, it means:

In the United States in 2005, 37,460 white females were sexually assaulted or raped by a black man, while between zero and ten black females were sexually assaulted or raped by a white man.

What this means is that every day in the United States, over one hundred white women are raped or sexually assaulted by a black man.

Haters, feel free to disprove me with PROOF. Plain insults will only show that you have nothing. Diversity has slowly started its meltdown. I can't believe I once believed in it.

The Labour Governments,

A Politcally Correct Night Before Christmas... Santa can't
smoke his pipe, the elves have unionized, Gordon Brown has Taxed his sleigh and the animal "rights"
folks have prevented the reindeer from flying...

'Twas the night before Christmas and Santa's a wreck...
How to live in a world that's politically correct?
His workers no longer would answer to "Elves",
"Vertically Challenged" they were calling themselves.
And labor conditions at the north pole
Were alleged by the union to stifle the soul.
Four reindeer had vanished, without much propriety,
Released to the wilds by the Humane Society.
And equal employment had made it quite clear
That Santa had better not use just reindeer.
So Dancer and Donner, Comet and Cupid,
Were replaced with 4 pigs, and you know that looked stupid!
The runners had been removed from his sleigh;
The ruts were termed dangerous by the H.S.E.
