The only genetic disease I can think of with Blacks is sickle cell and it is actually a mutation that takes the place of a far more dangerous affliction. Even when they live in poverty, they rarely seem to have genetic issues such as progeria, etic. Enlighten me with your answer, I just want to know everything.

So yesterday a friend of mine left a comment on her myspace saying that he thinks I'm going to ask her out. At the time she didn't really say anything about it. Today when I was talking to her she said my friend told her that everything he said was true. I told her that I really liked her but I told her that my friend said that she told him she didnt want me to ask her out. She said that she actually told him it would be weird for me to ask her out because I knew that she just wanted to be friends... although until then I didn't know she just wanted to be friends lol. Anyways does it sound like she does want me to ask her out or should I be taking her seriously and she does just want to be friends... I mean she was the one who brought it up... should I just try to get over her and just be friends, or should I be asking her out?

Suppose the Federal Reserves trading desk buys $500,000 in T-bills from a securities dealer, who then deposits the Fed’s check in the Best National Bank. Use a balance sheet to show the impact on the bank’s loans. Consider the money multiplier and assume the required reserve ratio is 10 percent. What is the maximum increase in the money supply that can result from this open market transaction?

If you deposit a $20 into a checking account, and your bank has a 10 percent reserve requirement, by how much will the bank’s excess reserves rise?

Why do people who answer the questions bash the asker and assume the question is personal to the asker? Do people realise that some questions are just a retorical one and that name calling and bashing is not called for?
Why do people instanly stab those thru the heart in others because they are so damn bitter in life?

Im 14 and very skinny. I eat alot, more than alot of my friends, and I get alot of rude comments about how skinny, I am and that im a tooth pick, or are anerexic. It hasn't really got to me, except for lately, because thats all I've been hearing lately. LIke on t.v. they are talking about how skinny is out, and that the new beautiful is to be fat. There like dont starve yourself, and make fun of people that are skinny, and say that fat is beatiful, and about how models,and girls starve them selves, and they don't know that not only does it affect people that are to skinny, because they starve themselves, but it also insults people like me, who don't starve them selves, but can't help it. I also don't get why people will be like aw your like a tooth pick, or will be like oh my gosh you TOO skinny, but dont say a thing about people who are TOO fat. Alot of people are like oh well their just jealous, it still gets to me that people will do this to people who are like me, but not too big.
