What is switching? Does switching leave welts on the body? sm
Is it painful? Seriously. What do you use? The paint stirrer (small, wooden stick), does nothing to him except make me mad and him more rebellious. I'm so afraid. I don't want to hurt him. I really don't. I'm so confused, upset, weak, tired, and wanting to give up.

not just women - black men were used in 1950s-60s..
in the 1950s or 1960s a large number of black men were used to test syphilis and associated drugs.........they gave them syphilis.........or some such thing - you can Google this and I think it happened in the deep south....(but of course in the 50s, early 60s, wouldn't have happened in NY for example)....and maybe some of you readers may know what I'm trying to convey, the story......so it's not *just* women...but it is disgusting no matter WHO it is..........and no, I wouldn't subject my potential future granddaughters with this - I'd send 'em to private school if that's the case.

Switching to DSL

I'm moving and the new place has DSL. I have always used cable high-speed. For those of you who have experience with both, can you tell me if DSL is a downgrade? I'm concerned about my production going down because of a slower connection. I know DSL and cable have comparable connection speeds, but I think DSL is significanly slower in transfer rate.

If I'm wrong, straighten me out. Tks for all input.

I agree. Was switching channels yesterday--sm
and landed on Oprah. Was shocked that some of the younger girls said Rhianna deserved being beaten because she hit him first and he was just defending himself. Did not see any photos of his beaten/bloody face on TV!!!

This is so shocking. With this kind of attitude it is not suprising that it is so hidden and shameful in this day and age.

Here is a funny pertaining to switching to digital TV in February
