The Orient is a geographical land mass to describe Turkey, Afghanistan, China, Malaysia, Japan and Persia.

The term "Oriental" denotes the style or culture of that particular land mass. There is no such thing as an "Oriental" race or "Oriental" tribe or "Oriental" language.

There are oriental lampshades. Oriental carpet rugs. Oriental spices. But there are no oriental people.

Hi

As race and religion are such hot topics at the moment. Does anyone have any ideas as to how many races there are in the world? I know, however, I would be very interested to see what people think.

Cheers

--- I need your views on this poem. for some reaso it feels unfinished and I can't pin-point why----

She sat there behind me
craddled in mothers arms
quite as a mouse
If the world could be this peaceful

Tiny eyes warm the heart
gurgles and smiles
steal the soul
If the world could only see her

Putty for hands
as soft as a pillow
a heart warmer than a quilt
she doesn't budge
If the world could have such compassion

Her eyes see colours but not in colour
for her tiny heart is free
love purely
If the world could only be so open

Awed by all she sees
nothing is old
nothing is useless
If only the world could have such wisdom

Should the world be as a babe
then paradise be found
warm,open and honest
embracing the differences
unscared by the hatred of the unknown
of ourselves

--- maybe I should split it into two poems. I don't know.
bf's been nagging me about how I have my piece all over the place so I'm putting them together. plz help. greatly appreciated--

In stead of our own rich culture why the young generation of Indian subcontinent feels happy by blindly following the western culture?

I live in CA and I am white. Obviously I am a minority especially in my workplace which is the healthcare field. I work in an area where I am the only white person and I heard 2 mexicans and 1 phillipino talk disgustingly about whites. Even using the term "pale faces" and "caucazoid" all the while I was right in the room. Is this right because I felt completely humiliated. The reason why there is so much tension between the races is a lot of times they start crap themselves without provocation. And do we have any defense for ourselves. No, but they have plenty of protection. It's really f'ed up and I'm tired of it.

I'm not talking about blacks either. I actually love blacks. At least they are bonafied Americans. Everytime I see a black person it's like YEAH! an American. Not like a burrito eating ball of grime or some smelling fish head eating b*tch.

I am currently working at a job that im not overly fond of. Im underpaid and not really fond of my superiors since they seem to try and rip off us employees. Anyhow my friend got me an interview at another company of which i went today. So heres my problem. The pay is great and they seem like a nice company BUT they are about an hour away from where I live and gas prices are insane so this would rack up a lot of money, also the staff is all men and I am a girl, not my main concern tho and also I have a long term/short term goal to work under my aunt who does work like this. I dont like the idea of changing jobs just like that because of all the new faces but I sure dont want to stay there forever. Any advice? No stupid remarks pls

My friends and I want to make some decals for our off-road vehicles. Some of our friends go to University of Arizona while me and others go to Arizona State University. We came up with 4 options please let me know which one you think sounds better or maybe any good suggestions. These are the options:

CatDevil United
CatDevil Union
DevilCat United
DevilCat Union

p.s. the devilcat comes from sun devils and wildcats and union or united comes from getting the two universities together. Any other GOOD suggestions?
