To remove fresh latex paint from carpet: soak with dish detergent diluted with 20 parts water; agitate; blot; rinse; blot. If the paint has dried, a little lacquer thinner will soften and remove it (lacquer thinner could also melt certain kinds of carpet, so test first).
Get paint out of a carpet by sponging with a solution of 1 tbs. of detergent and 1 tbs. vinegar, in 1 quart of warm water.
Touch a hard drop of paint with a Q-tip dipped in paint remover. This will also soften the paint back so it can be blotted and rinsed out.
To remove oil-based paint or varnish from carpet: Check the label on the paint or varnish for the specific thinner or solvent to use. If the spot is already dry, soften it by covering it for several hours with towels dampened with the appropriate solvent; agitate with a brush, repeat as necessary; apply detergent solution and work into the stain; blot; rinse with warm water; blot dry.

The oxi clean more than likely set the paint in permanently. Never use any chemical on an item as your first attempt. The first thing you should always do is plain water. Never rub which pushes the stain in further, always blot. It was more than likely acrylic paint so water would have cleaned it the best. If it is oil based paint, nail polish remover. The stain is probably set, so cut out the carpet larger than the stain, go into the closet, cut out around the bad piece of carpet and switch them. You can easily patch in the new piece of carpeting.

There's a product called Goof Off. Works really well on most stuff, including paint in fabrics. I used it to get wall paint out of my son's jacket. Of course, you'll need to test it in a small area first. It can usually be found at Home Depot or Lowes.

Black People can have blue green or hazel eyes. Either through a mutation in their genes of just traits passed down from their family. It is in fact rare for a black person to have any different eye color than brown its not impossible,
