“CTV.ca | Supporters of black-only school shut down meeting”Dozens of supporters of a proposal to implement a black-focused school showed up to last night’s meeting expecting to discuss details of a feasibility report on the issue.
Blacks in Canada want to be separate, but equal, with their own black-centered schools where black teachers teach the separated black students. Is this progression?

Non-traditional families, referring to mainly step fathers, step mothers, and non-married cohabitation, have more cases of physical and sexual abuse for children in them, according to studies compiled by the AP:

“Abuse more a risk in non-traditional families”“All the emphasis on family autonomy and privacy shields the families from investigators, so we don’t respond until it’s too late,” Wilson said. “I hate the fact that something dangerous for children doesn’t get responded to because we’re afraid of judging someone’s lifestyle.”

Can owners resell what they own? Companies don’t want it that way, but EFF and previous Supreme Court rulings do. It’s to the Supreme Court again, and EFF is looking out for you.
“‘By empowering patent owners to conjure what amount to servitudes that run with patented goods, the federal circuit has impermissibly and unwisely expanded patent scope by judicial fiat,’ said the document.”

Interim President/CEO
An organization comes to the aid of a criminal who, with two accomplices, broke into a home and bashed the skull of a boy (who now is unable to feed himself). Two of the three criminals were killed, after creating a “melee” in the family’s home. The organization on the side of criminals: The National Organization for the Advancement of Colored People. The reason: The criminals were black.
The victim’s father exercised his right to defend:
“Prosecutors said homeowner Shannon Edmonds opened fire Dec. 7 after three young men rampaged through the Clearlake house demanding marijuana and brutally beat his stepson. Rashad Williams, 21, and Christian Foster, 22, were shot in the back. Hughes fled.”

Times worried that DNA research to falsely validate bigotry

this story Thursday, November 15, 2007
A New York Times piece on how DNA research will add false validity to the racist’s stance. A black woman working in the research field doesn’t like the implications:
“Renata McGriff, 52, a health care consultant who had been encouraging black clients to volunteer genetic information to scientists, said she and other African-Americans have lately been discussing ‘opting out of genetic research until it’s clear we’re not going to use science to validate prejudices.’”

Europeans (99),
Inuit (91),
Southeast Asians and Amerindians (87 each),
Pacific Islanders (85),
Middle Easterners (including South Asians and North Africans) (84),
sub-Saharan Africans (67),
Australian Aborigines (62).From Wikipedia
One thing about this article made me laugh: Renata—not to mention the author—assumes the results of the scientific study of the black genome will end up to be negative to people’s perception of the minority group, that results will identify blacks as being dumber, and not that blacks will be shown to have twenty more I.Q. points than the average Asian. Show a little faith, Renata. Don't let statistics (1) get you down.

Plagiarism in blogosphere runs amok; oxygen needed to breathe
In the blogosphere, plagiarism is the crutch that hacks who write for these sites—much like mine—use to pad the blank screen with grey words, without doing the heavy lifting of all that pesky research. Fine. But, TUAW [1] really takes the cake when it plagiarizes the story of a blog that plagiarized the story from yet another blog. Holy inbreeding, Batman!
1. …a boringly written blog about Mac computers…
In a story that a CNET blog wrote about Eisner’s keynote at whereeverthefuck, Eisner talks smack about Steve Jobs. Who cares, my point is then Engadget writes its story using all information from CNET’s blog, which is what shitty blogs do (again, like ours). But then, holy shit, TUAW brings the story to the Mac faithful, gives attribution—and link—to motherfucking Engadget [22. Both are AOL blogs.], before giving attribution to the real source (you know, that person who did all the pesky research) by incorrectly stating that Eisner’s interview was with the CNET blog. Eisner did not interview with CNET, the writer merely covered his keynote.
See for yourself: Here is TUAW’s writer, Mike Schramm, vomiting up previously upchucked vomit, with corrections added in italic by me to his inaccuracy:
Original
“From the ‘whatever you say, Eisner’ department, Engadget brings news that former Disney honcho Michael Eisner is blaming the guy who originally wore the black turtleneck and jeans for the Writers Guild of America strike, of all things. In an interview with a CNET blog that totally didn’t fucking happen, Eisner says that Steve Jobs is taking media companies ‘to the cleaners,’ and that Jobsy’s the one to blame [33. Wrong, again.] for the writers’ low pay on digital media distribution.”
Their “Read” link points to the original CNET story, which is why it isn’t linked in their first paragraph. But TUAW, don’t say “Engadget brings news…” because it didn’t bring the news, it upped chunks and you drank it.

Hentai Variations: Students dish teacher a different kind of lesson

this story Friday, November 02, 2007

From what I gather [11. I don’t read Japanese], Find it at Hentai Variationsin Himitsu no Kichi De XXX, a few school chums decide to ensnare their school mistress and give her a what-what in their special sex slave training program. Teach’ learns the pleasures of being tied up-side-down and raped by the four of the younger generation in what is a marvelously rendered hentai story. The quality of art is absolutely on par with medical illustration. The flesh looks soft, nubile and transluscent because of the artist’s subtle use of color as it reflects on flesh. I give this hentai 5 strokes out of 5.
