Well in my family there has been various problems. For example sometimes we are cool like we get along. When I mean by family is that its just my mom, dad, sister, and me. All my life I have spent it in my house and I do nto go out leterally go out. All my winter break I spent it in my house the only times I went out was because we had a reunion at my aunts on Christmas and New Years Eve. I do not even go to my backyard because there is nothing to do. So I get deppresed, every night when I went to bed I was happy, but to think that this is it tommorrow the same routine. With my family problems is even worse. My mom has a relative who has a kid, but does not live with the mom, but he sends money to her children, well the children that are not his. They only have one in commomn. Though my mom tells him not to do that because the other children are not his responsibility. To earn some money for hmself. When my dad gave his opinion about how my mom should live him alone and not tell the same thing every time because he wont call again. Because instead of getting suport from my mother, he gets a whole speech. So my dad told my mom how she should not say those things again she got mad. My sister took my mom’s side and I took y dad’s side. I know that if you love one you tell them what is best for them, but this has being going on for years. So obviously he is not going to change. So I prefer he calls us to say hi instead if not calling because of my mom’s speech.Another problem is that every time a conversation comes up about money she says that its better not to have money because anyone who owns money just becomes stucke up. And I feel tha every time she hears about some one who has money she qualifies them as all the same. And well she comes up from a humble family, but does not mean everyone is the same. When I see myself in the future. I do not see myself living in my house because all the problems I had there every vacation stuck in there too. During the holidays I just see my self visiting there that is it. I jsut feel that I need to get myself out of here or I am going to go crazy. Though I feel selfish when I think of not coming home very often because I do put myself in the position that if I were to be a mother I would miss them, but I would at least have more communication. I never had a lot of communication with my parents besisde hi and some things that happen in school. Everything I know about sex, life is by friends and school so I feel lonely. I just want to know that if it is really bad just to have some time for myself come once in a while home to visit them. THOUGH SOME TIMES I JUST NEED TO GET OUT. THAK YOU!
You are assuming to much. Let the grown ups handle their affairs. be vocal about your wishes but try not to pick sides and such it only causes division. I would also say that you need to go out more. It is healthy to be social. I would advose you to talk to someone about all your issues. They seem to weigh heavily on you and I feel you are too young.

What are some legit work from home companies?
I have been looking for a work from home job. It’s hard to sort out the legit companies from the many scams out there. What is the best place to look? Any recommendations?

Chris Rock although a great comedian often in the slapstick sense is often overlooked as a great social commentator. Perhaps it’s true what he says. There are two types of black people: black people and n**gers.
Now what tends to get reported in the media more often than not is the latter of the two people. However, with the US presidential election as evidence, perhaps that tide is slowly turning. However, there are still obstacles to the advancement of black people WORLDWIDE because of some prevalent attitudes within the community.
Now I only discuss and ask the following question because I feel like a victim of the issue we are about to debate:
Why does myself wanting to be successful and living a good life have to be viewed as ‘treachery’ and ’selling out’ against my own race?
I am not a black nationalist and I would describe myself as fairly politically liberal. But I raise this question because I am often viewed by people I grew up with as a ‘coconut’. Possible reasons vary from:
(1) I think there is more to music than just listening to one type of genre (R’n'b & Hip Hop is not the only music out there people!)
(2) I don’t speak nor really feel comfortable speaking ebonics. While I live in England, I will speak ENGLISH. While I live in Kenya, I will speak swahili. Get my drift?
(3) I do not consider getting an a high level of education or learning a trade as ‘corny’ or ‘acting white’. Last time I checked, this ‘corny’ education often led to people acquiring a substantial amount of sterling or dollars upon a few years after completion.
(4) No, I do not want to have 4 children before I am 25 from 4 different mothers. I like sex, but it doesn’t mean I have to pay for it by not using appropiate protection and getting a nice little STD.
(5) Yes, I may have been poor while studying for my degree and you may have been earning untold amounts of ‘quick money’ while I was struggling, but I’ll take that over a criminal record and always having to watch my back.
A lot of stereotypes, I know, but you know what they say, stereotypes often come from a lot of truth…
So is there really a civil war going on in the black community? Or am I just ranting and generalising? Because last time I checked, people were more interested in 50 cents new album than Barack Obama’s views on the education system…
All comedians are looked over as social commentators. The fact that they make what they’re saying funny is what keeps a lot of people from being able to take what’s being said seriously. Even if the person has a valid point.
No, having a Black president does not mean the tides are turning… look at the ratio of Black men and women in prison compared to other races, and the economic value of their neighborhoods.
Most people use the word "sell out" and have no idea what they’re talking about. You’re only a sell out if you disregard the issues that your people as a whole have, or you side with, or conform to, to the ideals of the oppressors.
1) Music, is an issue. Music is culturally, and historically, the main mode of communication for Blacks. So, the music is what people can relate to the most. Which is why when you put bad messages, and signals in the music, it DOES have an affect on the community. The music feeds off of the community, then puts whatever it took from the community back in. It’s a cycle. As far as the genre you prefer, that has nothing to do with being a sell out.
2) With language, you should be able to switch, just like you said. You have to be able to communicate effectively with the people around you. Talking properly doesn’t make you a sell out. But at the same time you shouldn’t disregard or block out what someone is saying, simply because of how they’re saying what they’re saying.
3) True education is important. But, mainstream America has made it seem better to excel in other areas besides "education". That’s what the purpose of integration was (for them), to extend mainstream America to the Black community - giving a false sense of equality and justice. Besides, there is a difference between being educated, and being intelligent. Education is a person’s ability to repeat and memorize what they’ve been taught. Intelligence is a person’s ability to create/improve based off of what they know/knew, when a person’s knowledge is put to use.
4) Point taken. No one really plans to have 4 children. It’s the immaturity, lack of self-control, and disregard for the consequences that cause the Black family structure to be reduced to one night stands and single parent homes. On top of the STD problem, the prison system is also a part of that. Denial is a big issue there.
5) It’s good that you decided to struggle and get your degree, do things the legal way. Not everybody is that strong. Some people can, and will only take struggling for so long. And rightfully so, no one should have to struggle forever, which for some people, they either are in that position, or feel that way. The problem is the alternatives people take to struggling. Different people act differently to different situations. "Because I did it, there’s no excuse for anyone else to fail." Does not work in every situation in real life. Everybody can’t have a "Pursuit of Happyness" life story. It’s one thing to encourage someone, but it’s something completely different to make demands based on something that you were able to do. It doesn’t seem like you’re taking that stance, but a lot of times, Black people who come out the same way you did turn their noses up to their brothers and sisters who are still lost.
You have to look at what Black people have been through over the past 400+ years for you to understand why many of them react the way you’ve described. They’re reacting to a system that was developed by people who tried to destroy them (pretty much). Everyone will react to this situation differently, and pass that on to the youth. It’s been going on for years. And no, none of this does or should take away from personal responsibility.
There is a civil war going on between society, not just Black people. Not in the physical sense, but in the mental/psychological sense. People are struggling with and fighting ideals, not people. People getting hurt is just the physical evidence of that mental battle. Until people begin to see that things are bigger than their block, their city, state, etc. and see how everything is connected, we will stay in the same destructive cycle.

My work location is about 30 miles from my home. I live in Massachusetts. I work on a computer most of the day. What is the program or method by which you can work at home but be able to access your work computer?
it’s called virtual networking, something like this would probably be the most suitable for you if you have no budget:

BUT, if you’re a computer newbie you’ll probably run into problems with setting it up due to firewall/security problems.
Greek translation?? Can somebody please help me translate this to greek?
Dear Jason,
It has been a while since I have heard from you. How is everything back home in Lefkada? i miss you and everyone. Life in America is not what it seems. I work fourteen hours a day to earn a living. There is alot of hardships and since I do not speak good English, it is even harder for me to speak with other people. I want to come back to Greece. As soon as I save enough money, I will come back home to all of you. But now I must go, my ink is running out and it will be another month to buy another pen. I will write again.
with love,
Chloe

Are illegal Mexicans the least of our problems?
All I hear is ranting and raving about how the illegal immigrants are "the cancer that is killing our country" or "the ultimate cause of economic destruction. I’ve even seen people accuse the illegal immigrants for causing the staph infections floating around America. Here are some things that explain why you shouldn’t be that mad at immigrants.
The Cost Of The War VS Those Darn Illegal Mexicans
On November 17th, 2007, this is the total amount of US dollars spent on the war. $469,476,583,185. Pocket change. You can even see how much it cost your county alone at the Cost Of War. Once a bomb is dropped on Iraq, that money is lost forever. Numbers about the costs of Mexicans are speculated and people pretend as if once they get money, it never gets spent and that they never pay taxes. In case you haven’t noticed, Mexicans eat too. That means they pay this thing called SALES TAX in addition to the amount of money they just put back into the economy by getting a Big Mac. What’s that? They need a place to live too? Even more money spent IN AMERICA!
The idea that illegal immigrants leech off of welfare is ridiculous. If you were illegally in another country, your number one concern would be TO NOT GET CAUGHT AND SENT BACK. So what does that mean? That means that if you don’t want to be tracked by the government, YOU DON’T SIGN UP FOR WELFARE. They can’t exactly vote either, so it’s not like they have any power with decisions regarding the law. These people pay money into sales tax, property tax, income, social security, and they can’t vote. The whole entire country was founded on the idea, "No taxation without representation." Would paying $428 billion dollars in taxes in 2006 be enough to cover the resources they use?
These people are saving you money while they’re here as well. Why do you think the price of food is so low? The cost of gathering it all goes down with advances in technology and CHEAP LABOR. These guys are here to provide the best they can for their family. Isn’t that the American dream itself? They adandon their homeland so they can come here and earn a better life for the people they love. These guys aren’t criminals, they’re fathers.
What say you?
garyshood.com/immigrants/
I agree with you. So many US citizens have no idea about immigration at all and just hear things that they think are true. Most of the arguments are outdated and stereotypes. Remember, everything changed after 9/11 when it comes to immigration!
1. I am close friends with many illegal immigrants. Every single one of them has a fake social security number that they use. Therefore, at work, they pay all income taxes, and they NEVER file for a tax return. They are paying into social security that they will never use, medicare, etc.
2. I am married to a man from El Salvador. In order for him to come to the US, I had to sponsor him. I had to prove that I make enough money to support him so that he can NEVER file for welfare or other federal assistance programs. My husband is a LEGAL immigrant and he cannot file for these services. Therefore, since Legal immigrants do not qualify, then Illegal immigrants do not either. The only immigrants that do qualify are the refugees, which is a completely different topic, but they are here because the USA has made it so they can no longer live in their own countries (if you don’t know anything about this, research the reasons the Hmong are here)
3. To the person that said that US citizens should have a say on who is and isn’t in the country. Well, that isn’t true either! I married a man from El Salvador. I had to pay the US Immigration thousands of dollars for application fees and paperwork. I had to fight fight fight for him to come to the US. I am a US citizen, my parents were born here, my grandparets were born here etc. So no, US citizens do not have a say at all who is here and who isn’t, just the government. That will never change!
4. Immigrants do spend a lot of money here. The cost of living is very high in the US compared to the countries they live in. Lets say an illegal immigrant makes $2000 month. First they pay the income taxes that come right out of their checks, then they have to pay rent, utilities, food, car insurance, car payment, supplies etc. Maybe… just maybe, they send $100-$200/month back home. Most of the money is spent in the US!

FIRST THINGS FIRST - This is NOT a get rich quick scheme! It is NOT a scam and it WILL NOT make you an overnight millionaire!
Here’s something GUARANTEED to keep you awake tonight!
“One of the LAST few genuine ‘hidden money making methods’ left”
·BUT – I don’t sell a single THING!
·My Ebay fees are just virtually non-existent whenever I use this method.
· I have almost NO competition – most people don’t see the hidden money just waiting for them on Ebay, or if they do they keep very quiet about it.
· In fact most people probably know nothing about this system - this is a different way of working Ebay.
·Absolutely anyone can do this – ‘Newbie’ or Powerseller alike, yet this is one of the LAST few genuinely ‘hidden money making methods’ left.
I make a very good income from a number of different money-making methods.
This is by far the easiest, quickest and most effective method I use.
It’s also my favourite.
EASY MONEY FROM EBAY
So how can this guide help you start to change things?
Ebay, I once heard is the 12th most visited webpage on the planet. There are millions of people who are registered to buy and sell on Ebay with more joining very day.
There are hundreds of thousands of people who either make a living or supplement their incomes by buying and selling on Ebay
That means there are also millions who have failed and lost money trying to sell on Ebay.
And that’s fine by me!
· I DON’T WANT to you to sell on Ebay. Selling will not be your priority. Using the information in this book you’ll watch others do the selling then put this amazing system into action.
· The best Ebay sellers, and especially the Powersellers are the ones who can make the most money for you.
· You won’t have the hassle of fulfilling orders or handling abusive refund requests. You won’t worry about your products being pirated or stolen and nor do you have to worry about negative feedback.
· Simply put, this method can allow you to just make money from Ebay in a little known way that is hassle free and takes up just a few hours a week.
· If you want to work from home, from the comfort of a warm PC while the rest of the world rushes round like mad ants then this could be where you start.
· If you want a JOB, which is slowly draining what’s left of your life and making someone else rich then fine. I wish you well.
I’ll also give you the exact wording of an email that has brought me over a thousand pounds in 24-48 hours – time after time.
So where’s the catch?
There are two:
1. You’ll have to put some work and effort in – like I said, this isn’t a fake get rich quick scam.
2. You may have to admit that you’ve wasted a lot of your life working for the wrong person. Now it’s time to start working for the right person – YOU.
Make the first step in changing your life now.
Item delivered by email ASAP after payment,
PLEASE ALLOW UP TO 72 HOURS FOR DELIVERY!
Just think for a minute - if YOU had discovered a genuine and easy way to make money on ebay, would you be selling the details for 3 quid? You would have to be pretty stupid wouldnt you. You would keep it to yourself so there was no competition. Dont waste your 3 quid.
