ACLU sues to stop new S.C. law

A coalition of immigrants and groups who work with them filed a federal lawsuit Wednesday against South Carolina’s immigration law, saying it will encourage racial profiling and violate people’s constitutional rights.
The law, which is scheduled to go into effect Jan. 1, requires law enforcement officers to check the immigration status of anyone they detain, including people pulled over during traffic stops. It also creates a statewide Illegal Immigration Enforcement Unit that would be under the direction of the S.C. Department of Public Safety.

“Individuals perceived as ‘foreign’ by state or local law enforcement agents will be in constant jeopardy of harassment and unlawfully prolonged detention and arrest,” the lawsuit states.



Georgia's independent hospitals hurting

“There is a strong move toward consolidation here in Georgia,” said Holly Lang, director of the Hospital Accountability Project at Georgia Watch, a statewide consumer organization. “It can be both a positive and a negative thing. It depends on how the hospitals go about this and whether they consider the patients in what they are doing.”

Latest Freemason Conspiracy: Recruiting Younger Bros

No self-respecting secret society can get by without a Facebook fan page anymore.

That's transparently true of the Freemasons, renowned for their medieval blood oaths, their often-alleged plot to create a New World Order, their locked-door conclaves of U.S. presidents and power brokers and their boring pancake breakfasts.

A menagerie of 19th-century civic and social brotherhoods, and their attendant sisterhoods, lives on around the globe: the Elks, the Moose, the Lions, the Odd Fellows. Freemasonry is the oldest of all, still the biggest, and—in the public mind—about as penetrable as the mythic crypt beneath the ninth vault of Solomon's Temple.

Parents Smoking Mad Over Pot-Shaped Candy


 Would you buy your child a marijuana leaf-shaped (but totally drug-free) lollipop? One aghast Buffalo parent most definitely would not—and after she alerted the City Council to the controversial candy, city leaders and anti-drug activists started working to get it off shelves. “It's the whole idea that it promotes drugs and the idea that, here, you'll look cool if you use this—which is what gets these kids in trouble in the very first place,” says one treatment center supervisor. But the president of Kalan LP, which distributes the candy, insists this is the first complaint he’s gotten.

Big Dreams! NBA Players Consider Starting Own League

Players have discussed starting an alternate league, if the current NBA lockout forces a cancellation of the season, according to New York Knicks star Amar’e Stoudemire.
It looks like the players in the NBA aren’t going for the okey-doke on the recent lockout by team owner.  While there are some who have gone to play overseas, some players are wondering why they can’t be owners themselves.  This would be a major move in the land of the NBA athlete.

New York, made news this past weekend after civil rights legend John Lewis was denied the chance to speak to protesters.


Educated Black People Are More Likely To Marry Whites

 The more education African-Americans have, the more likely they are to marry white people, a new study conducted by the Journal of Marriage and Family suggests.

Blacks who have completed higher levels of education are more likely to marry whites because they have a greater chance of interacting with them in school, the workplace and neighborhoods where they live — a fact that has been true for other groups for a while but not for blacks, Qian says.
“This doesn’t imply that we’ve moved into a post-racial society,” says Daniel Lichter, director of the Cornell Population Center and study co-author. “Even though there’s been a rapid increase (in black-white unions), it’s still very low.”

Only 3 “Good” Black Men For Every 100 Black Women

Gonorrhea Becoming 'Incurable'

STD mutating so fast that antibiotics can't keep up

The clap is mutating so quickly that there is a real danger that it will become incurable unless new treatments are developed, British doctors warn. 

"Our lab tests have shown a dramatic reduction in the sensitivity of the drug we were using as the main treatment for gonorrhea. This presents the very real threat of untreatable gonorrhea in the future," an expert at Britain's Health Protection Agency says. "This highlights the importance of practicing safe sex, as, if new antibiotic treatments can't be found, this will be only way of controlling this infection in the future."

Disgusting! N-Word Products Are Common In China

These products are becoming more and more noticeable as more African Americans travel to China on business.

What is “n-word-oil”? Well, it turns out that this medicinal remedy is for muscle pain and a host of other ailments the Chinese have been using for a very long time. It’s ubiquitous in Chinese medicine shops worldwide, including in the U.S.
Another product — a tanning oil — also is known as “n-word oil” in Chinese. I asked a Chinese friend, who’s 53, about this oil and he hadn’t heard of it. In fact, he didn’t believe it was called that until I showed him the picture, and he said he found the name offensive, and that if blacks knew about it they would find it very offensive.
