Social Science - 12 November 2006

While some individual members of the black race have been known to have excelled beyond some Whites, on the whole the caucasoids have continued to exhibit superior power in science and technology. Today, it just dawned on me that 8 out of 10 things in my room and on my street were made possible because of the White man.

Are they born with superior brains? Or is there anything wrong with the Black man generally? Africa has virtually all the resources one can think of in the world - ore, gold, diamond, tin, coal, silicon, hydrocarbon, crude oil, granite, uranium, rich fauna, rich flora, clement weather, rocks, springs, mountains, vast arable land, PEOPLE!!!, etc etc - yet we are way back technologically &
scientifically speaking.

Can sombody in the house kindly tell me what went wrong. Can the Black race ever catch up with the Whites in this direction or is one having illusions?

During a waking period of sleep, I have sometimes have felt as though I am being stretched out of body. This has only happened a few times in my life. However, it is such an unusual feeling, I have strong remembrance of the occurrences. I am interested to know how many others have had these, and I am interested in your thoughts as to the basis for the event. Thanks.

THIS QUESTION IS NOT INTENDED TO BE RACIST.

I am studying differences in social behavior between hispanic people and white people.

Being hispanic myself, i obviously know where to find other latino's, but i'm having a problem.

I have only found two places in Miami Florida where I can find the white people: The bowling alleys, and Piccadilly's.

Can anyone give me more places to find white people in Miami?

In my psychology class, Systemic Approach to Adolescent Problems(Graduate level) we are to present a case study and my topic is adolescents and coming out of the closet. I'm going back and forth on whether I want to present myself(when I was an adolescent) as the case study or do my girlfriend. We also have to talk about the family structure and all. I'm not really UNcompfortable doing it on myself and I think it would be easier and more beneficial for the class to get the idea first hand on how it was for somebody coming out of the closet. Is this a good idea or should I just present it on my girlfriend (let her remain anonymous ofcourse). It would take SOME pressure off myself. I seriously have no idea what to do.

HELP!? Any suggestions?

40 years old is "old" for societys standards such as getting into the military, starting a career, graduating from college, getting married, and starting a family. Not to say you cant do these things at 40. I just think society thinks you are too old to START at 40. what do you think? Or is it 30?

Do any of you have the problem of beating yourself up too much (psychologically)? Do you have a tendency to believe that someone is to blame just because there is a problem? Do you sometimes feel that you have 'bad feelings' for someone just because you're in their presence when someTHING is bothering you at the time you express your frustration, sometimes only by your tone of voice. Do you misattribute that frustration to being upset at the person? Do you feel you are to blame just because someone is upset? I have had this problem and still do to some extent. I found myself apologizing to my mother and others over silly things. It was only after I stopped doing this, that I had a closer relationship with my mother, and then we were BOTH better off. And when she was upset over nothing I just left, and next time I saw her there simply was no problem.

Just wondering if the people we pay just to talk to us, do they actually DO anything, or do they just give another point of view and help us to think things through? (in the case of depression, low self esteem etc) - do they actually help?

I was in class just minding my own business and then I looked up and someone was staring at me but not just staring at me randomly. They were staring at me and their eyes kinda looked like puppy eyes and it made me really nervous cause thats not how people usually looks at someone. So I was just wondering what it means when someone looks at another person like that.

waited on at the same time that I just want to grab the scissors and rip my veins out. I felt like that last night. I have no one to help me in my department and I just feel like ending it all some times. Actually this time of year reallly stresses me out. People are so mean and I hate the holidays as a result. Does anyone else ever feel this way? Do you ever think of going in and killin yourself in the bathroom just to shock your coworkers or to annoy customers? Not much work would get done then. Doesn't life suck, especiallly at this time of year?

i mean when a friend asks for an advice, you easily give him or her great ones.. you know exactly what to say. but when it comes to your own problems you can't? especially when it is similar to the problem of theirs? even if you know the answers are the obvious?
