Comment: Do you know any Black males who are seniors in high school who want to go to college out of state for FREE? Several Black Colleges are looking for future black, male teachers and will send them to universities/colleges for four years FREE. The, "Call Me MISTER," program is an effort to address the critical shortage of African-American male teachers particularly among South Carolina's lowest performing public schools. Program participants are selected from among under-served, socio-economically disadvantaged and educationally at-risk communities. The program is a collaboration between Clemson University and four historically black colleges in South Carolina: Benedict College, Claflin University, Morris College and South Carolina State University. The project provides: * Tuition for admitted students pursuing approved programs of study at participating colleges. * An academic support system to help assure their success. * A cohort system for social and cultural support.

Comment: G'morning! I have no plans to do any work today. So whoever is not here needs to show up and entertain me. I have two questions for today. 1. For lingerie victoria's secret or fredericks of hollywood or neither? 2. how do you define success...for those who are parents also how do you define raising a successful child?

Name: YLawdY
Comment: bighead diva....Good luck on the job interview. It's yours if you want it.

Name: ImJustAsking
Comment: bighead< I wish you well! Taz< everybody knows you're a sweetie pie, you would never send your son to the hospital! You would nurse him back to health at home!

Name: YLawdY
Comment: IJA....here you come wanting somebody to make sense at 9:32 EST. Vicky vs. Freddy = seduction vs. freakin. Depends on the mood. Success for me means feeling good about my place in the universe. Raising a successful child means her azz aint moving back home after college. Just kidding. To me a successfully raised child is politically, socially and morally aware, understands the importance of doing their best and feels good about their place in the universe. Doesn't matter what their ultimate profession is as long as they are doing THEIR best and feel pride in their efforts. I tell my daughter you can be whatever you want to be, just make sure you are the best YOU can be at whatever you choose. If you want to be a hooker, be the best dayum hooker YOU can be.

Name: TAZBABY
Comment: Osun, I know you look Kewt today, what heels are you rocking?

Name: YLawdY
Comment: IJA...do I consider myself a success? Yes, I do. Now I have to say that my definition of success has gone through quite a few changes since college. When I was 20 success meant I was going to be CEO of a marketing firm, own a Benz (not a baby Benz) and go to Paris every spring....all by the age of 25. lol

Name: YLawdY
Comment: Continuing...the point is at a younger age my idea of success was tied to material things such as houses, cars, job status. Now it's tied to personal fulfillment (not saying I've passed on material things), more centered on relationships and the world around me. Oh My God...does that mean I'm old now? *slinking off to ponder that*

Name: ImJustAsking
Comment: YlawdY< Are you trying to make fun of my idea of success?? LMAO

Name: OSUN
Comment: Taz I have on wedges. They are a bronzy mettaliccy shade. I like them even though they are round toe. I normally hate round toe shoes, they are for short people. I am tall and a round toe shoe makes it look like someone went Kunta on my foot. It cuts it off and makes it look short.

Name: YLawdY
Comment: Round toes are for short people? I gain so much knowledge on this board everyday. LMBAO

Name: TAZBABY
Comment: Osun, I know they are kewt on you round toe or not.

Name: ImJustAsking
Comment: Osun< LMAO I typically don't wear round toes for the same reason...I'm not tall but my feet are small so if I have on round toes they disappear under my pants. I have a couple pair of round toe pumps I wear with A-line skirts, but mostly I prefer peep toes for that.

Comment: Women's rights key to Africa AIDS crisis: study By Andrew Quinn 19 minutes ago Improving women's rights could boost the battle against AIDS in southern African countries, where women are often forced into risky sex by male partners or economic desperation, a new report said on Friday. Physicians for Human Rights said its study of 2,000 women in Botswana and Swaziland showed inequality and gender discrimination were major factors behind a pandemic which has seen the two countries struggle with the worst AIDS crises in the world. "If we are to reduce the continuing, extraordinary HIV prevalence in Botswana and Swaziland, particularly among women, the countries' leaders need to enforce women's legal rights," study co-author Karen Leiter said in a statement. "The impact of women's lack of power cannot be underestimated." Almost 25 million Africans are infected with the HIV virus, giving the continent the worst AIDS burden in the world. Women make up 75 percent of HIV-positive Africans aged between 15-25. The PHR study concentrated on the two African countries with the highest HIV prevalence rates -- Swaziland, where an estimated 33 percent of adults are infected, and Botswana, where about 24 percent carry the virus. Researchers conducted random surveys on gender attitudes and sexual behavior and concluded that greater social and economic inequality between the sexes directly correlated to the HIV risk faced by African women.

Name: ImJustAsking
Comment: Osun< first of all, I don't know the last time I had a man, so I wasn't even thinking about men when I asked the question lmao! but since you brought it up, do people only use lingerie as a precursor to sex?

Name: MDhornet
Comment: OSUN, lingerie, like most other women's clothing is far more important to women. When it's all said and done, most men don't give a dammn. They just want it all off or hiked up or down.

Name: OSUN
Comment: IJA, I do. I have bought some to just have and tried wearing it as pajamas. For me I'd rather wear a tee shirt or just my bra and panties to bed.

Name: oldschoolbrother
Comment: Lingerie, what a question. Fredericks for the freaks and VC for the romantic mood. My grandfather told me your success is determined by the quality of your friends. I know at his funeral he had hundreds of well respected people show up. That always stuck with me.

And YELLEY, I'm getting you and HONEY too.>>GHANK, I had a song to bring to the table by HOWARD HEWITT, but I forgot the title. I think it was "I'M HERE"?>>CHASSIE did you get to see "The Da Vinci Code" last week?. Those of you who knew that I was on the insurance jury for the WTC, the last 7 companies finally gave in to give Silverstein the $4.55 billion. Less than what he asked but enough to go forward. Talk to y'all later hopefully.YELLEY,MD,STORMY, it's time for me to try and win tickets for the ESSENCE MUSIC FESTIVAL. WBLS is my only way for my round trip fare. No money in the kitty! Damn!!

Comment: YlawdY< The corset still fits but the skirt is WAY too big! I remember you making a joke about getting it altered!

Name: ImJustAsking
Comment: Oh yeah and the reason I asked about the VC vs. Freddy's is that everyone thinks that VC is classier than Freddy's but taking a closer look at the inventory, I'on know. I will admit that Fred's has more crotchless stuff and custumes...but VC's doesn't strike me as classy. And their regular clothes are straight hookerish! Freddy's has better dresses and whatnot.

BLACKDIAMOND>no i didn't get a chance to see the DaVinci Code. i heard it wasn't all that good though so i didn't bother to rent it from Netflix. so this weekend i'm looking at the rest of season 3 of NipTuck and Doris Day's "The Glass Bottom Boat"

Comment: Morning ALl! I can't remember the last time I was in Freddy's but I LOVE Vicki's. Never really think of buying for a mans pleasure unless its Valentines Day or some special occasion and like most on the board they really don't give a damn unless its real freaky.

And we’re just getting used to being acquired by ge… *looks around for the hidden big brother camera* I know it’s here somewhere. These folks even had the nerve to block access to our personal email.

Name: POSITIVE
Comment: IJA- I’m a FOH fan all the way. And it’s not <just> because VS bras aren’t sized for me… The few that I did own didn’t last long. I wore a v-neck to work once and there was metal sticking up from my shirt. My male coworker was the one who pointed it out. I tried to push the metal back in place, but it just kept popping back out. All three of my vc did that. After that I was through. I only wear the satin bras from FOH now. They give me that best support and come in the juiciest colors.

Name: ImJustAsking
Comment: Hornet< LMAO I wonder the same thing. I mean, I need to talk to someone who buys those clothes and get them to tell me what they do with them. I would hope they use them as costumes. Positive? WTF???? Joney< I sleep sans any clothes at all b/c that's what my momma does. Why do your friends think it's weird?

Name: ImJustAsking
Comment: Positive< I have seen your tigglebitties, so I know VC bras were an issue. maybe I should try FOH bras as well...I've gone down a cup size in a month.

Comment: Joney>> My cousin came to visit when I was younger and although she wore a nightgown she didnt wear panites. I imitated her after that but my mom found out about it a while later and was telling me that its nasty to not have em on. (Don't need to get graphic I think you know what I mean.) I started wearing them again. It would feel weird now to go commando unless I just got through with extracurricular activities. :-)

Name: Joney
Comment: IJA, I have no idea why they think it's weird. I asked and they were just like they always sleep in underwear. I guess they can't fathom sleeping w/o. It's the other way around for me. The subject came up when my friend from ATL came to visit, she stayed at my house and when she went to bed she had on bra, panties, shirt and shorts and I asked was she going somewhere, I couldn't believe she was going to sleep in all those clothes. I'm only comfortable with nothing but a t-shirt.

Name: POSITIVE
Comment: I gots me on some round toe wedges also. They do get lost down there with my lil feet, so I’m wearing them with denim straight leg trousers. Though I have worn them with a wider leg pants to give me that “hidden shoe” look.

Name: bigned69
Comment: OSUN--leave my round toe show wearing, 5'4" bootay alone! wahhh!

Name: POSITIVE
Comment: I sometimes sleep in a slingshot or tank top and some panties or sometimes neither. If I’m on my . then I do shorts or stretch pants. That way when the boyfriend rolls over, he knows not to roll on top of me. Whatever I sleep in has to be tight fitting, so the fabric won’t make lumps as I roll over throughout the night. But I can’t sleep in bras; I take those off as soon as I get home. I did the lingerie thing once. He doesn’t really care for it. And I don’t find lace comfortable.

Name: TAZBABY
Comment: Hey Chassie, you are alert and hanging, it must have been a very good email now spill what was in it?. I had to do a little bit of work but I am back now. Hey Positive long time no read! How are you? Joney, I don't sleep in undies either.

Name: OSUN
Comment: I aLways sleep in underwear well at least 98% of the time. I agree with your mom yelleyw. My mother actually doesn't sleep in them and growing up I hated that. I just think juicy needs her cap on at most times. I will go one step further and let you know that I always sleep in a bra.

Name: MDhornet
Comment: Joney, my momma always taught me to be ready in case the firemen or ambulance had to get me in the middle of the night, so I sleep in a small sleeveless tee and panties. Anything else is just too much fabric. I'd hate to stay at someone's house knowing they didn't wear undies to bed. I hope you have special sheets just for you. Thanks for the visual and nasal imagery yelleyw. Just what I need before lunch.

Comment: Ja Rule, Salt of Salt-N-Pepa, Ed Lover, The Wire’s Idris Elba and Hasaan Johnson and others will gather in Queens, New York in June for Repping For Life, a town hall meeting to discuss gang intervention and prevention. The Repping For Life meeting is part of a campaign launched by LIFE Camp Inc.'s executive director Erica Ford and community organizer Al Kanu, to decrease gang violence across the city. “At LIFE Camp, we have always been committed to young people, even the ones that society has abandoned,” Erica Ford said in a statement. “Gangs stay active in our communities because many young people don’t believe that they have other options. With the Repping for LIFE campaign, we’re showing and giving other real options. It’s time to love LIFE, not death. Together, we can help end street violence and build a better future.” LIFE Camp is a non-profit organization established in 2002, whose mission is to help its participants develop into strong leaders and responsible entrepreneurs through the arts, specifically music and film. The Repping For Life town hall will take place at the Performing Arts Center at York College (CUNY) on June 2 from 3:00 to 6:00 p.m. and is open to the public.

Comment: [letmein] I noticed yesterday you asked me a question and I didn't answer. Sorry, I fell asleep with the phone on my hand :). At the risk of ressurecting a dead topic. I meant, I only understood later what my parents were trying to 'say'. The 'say' bit being all the spanking. I think they'd have had better success if they talked more rather than 'why did you do this....huh? bring my belt here'. The net result is I became scared of my dad. My brothers are exemplary in behaviour and are seriously cool guys but they all drink, something my father would finish you off if he'd ever found out about it when we were young. When he opened up more to me(I think after I started working), I only then appreciated why he was the way he was when we were young. He talked more, I understood where he's coming from, I was already in my 20s and had already made up my mind what was good for me without his input.

Comment: BTW, I finally bought a car *smiles widely thinking about my new baby Maxi* Yep, I named her already. Boy I drove my lil $1,000 4 cylinder ‘89 Camcam for 3.5 years, and now I’m wondering why I waited so long to make the purchase. Oh yeah, I was being rebellious... I literally went to 20 dealerships to find my car. Well about 10 of the dealerships were at the Cerritos auto square and only took a few hours to visit, but still it was a quest. ImJustAsking- I finally purchased ur old ride, the Maxima. I looooves that car.

Comment: I see it's ladies day today lol. Enjoy the convo. My thoughts(don't generalise and say *men think*)... - Underwear gets in the way. I do appreciate the female form, therefore as little cover as possible please. However, I do appreciate that I deal with the demographic that has not had kids yet, maybe I'll change my mind. - Good underwear is a must. When a lady takes off her clothes I should not close my eyes. Later

Comment: Chicago loses more black kids than soldiers in Iraq to gun violence (http://www.dailysouthtown.com/news/opinion/guests/398 820,241GUC2.article) May 24, 2007 By Phillip Jackson Recently in Chicago, a teen gunman boarded a crowded public bus near a high school and opened fire with a handgun. I imagined this scene must have been similar to the bus bombings that are so common in wartorn Iraq. As I researched this analogy, I found striking similarities between what is happening in black communities across the United States and what is happening in a full-fledged war zone in Iraq. The major difference is that far more black children are dying in Chicago than Chicago soldiers are dying in Iraq. At about 24 deaths a year, Chicago children are being killed 24 times the rate that Chicago soldiers are being killed in Iraq. Statistics from Military Genealogy Trails show that during the five-year period between September 2001 and July 2006, six soldiers from Chicago were killed in Iraq combat. In a startling comparison, however, during an eight-year period between 1998 and 2007, 190 Chicago Public School children, mostly black, died in gun-related incidents. This year, the violent death toll in nine months totals 27 for Chicago's public school students, again, mostly black youth. Chicago is no different than any other city, because deadly violence in the lives of black children today is a constant, overwhelming reality in America.

Comment: OK ewwwww aint no one over here leaking. My moms just meant sweating and just I guess the natural secretions of your body that may happen during the night. That why you should keep draws on.

Comment: LOL! @ Yelley, I think because I be so uncomfortable with underwear on at night, I start to sweat. It may be a mental thing, because the only time my body is used to underwear at night is when it's that time of the month.

I didn’t want to pull myself from my “required” reading. I’m not even on top of the latest books. I’ve just purchased the new Eric Jerome Dickey book and the latest Shopaholic book, Shopaholic and Baby. Oh but I have read Choke, by Chuck Palahniuk, the guy who wrote Fight Club. Now that was an excellent book. It was about a nymphomaniac, who went to nymphomaniac anonymous classes to pick up women and would pretend he was choking in a high-end restaurants to get people to save his life. He would go on to keep contact with his “heroes” and solicit them for money. He used his solicited money for his 51/50 mother in a hospital and he was in love with her doctor. The funniest books I’ve ever read. It’s up their with my top picks.

Comment: They switched are medical plan around the same time as my last prescription was done and it takes about 2 months to get an appointment with a new doc, when ur a new patient. So since my by/f acts like he has a deadly allergy against latex and we kept havening “accidents”, I did a lil research on alternatives. First I pointed out the info on sterilization, but I couldn’t convince him, lmbao. I was really hopeful though. Then I was going to go for the sponge, but it just seems like it’ll be a tampon up there, and that just didn’t seem appealing. So it’s vcf’s for me until I can get the regular stuff. It’s like a lil strip. You fold it and put it inside you and it dissolves. It’s a form of spermicide(sp?).

Name: POSITIVE

Comment: They are films that look like Listerine breath strips or something. They come like 3 to a box or more. You take one out of the pack, fold in fourths, put on end of finger and stick into vagina as close as you can get it to your cervice. It dissolves and forms a barrier. No estrogen. It's the evolution of spermicifes and foams.

Comment: Thanks ija & yelly. This weight loss journey is a trip...I've learned that the key thing to weight loss if figuring yourself out. I realized that I had a LOT of idle time and wasn't doing JACK so I just started working out 20 - 30 min., mon - fri plus I'm on the softball team at work. I already eat okay, that's not the problem, it's my exercising habits. I pretty much eat what I like but in moderation. For instance, yesterday for dinner I didn't eat much, just some homemade chicken salad w/ ritz crackers, 1/2 deviled egg, & carrots w/ peanut butter. I only ate that because I knew that we were going out for ice-cream later. My goal is to make exercise a habit like brushing my teeth or taking a shower.

Comment: Our first ordeal with the vcf was horrible. We had already went through the whole 4 play thing, then once we remembered that we had to use some type of b/c, I had to go in the bathroom and retrieve the thing from rite aid bag under the cabinet. Then we had to read the instructions… Then we were arguing over the instructions… Then we realized that we had to wait 15 minutes after insertion before we could start intercourse. So we went back to sleep. But luckily the thing lasts 3 hours, cause we eventually woke up and restarted with no interruptions. So if any1 is going to try it for the first time, read the instructions and so forth before ur actually in the throws.

All the victims were taken to Kings County Hospital and listed in stable condition. Eyewitnes News is told 4 males, ages 16, 26, 28 and 37, were shot. Three women, all 19 years old, were slashed. Guess what it was over? A guy! Former residents returned to settle the score. Three girls are in custody charged with obstructing governmental administration and resisting arrest.

Comment: Mom Was Right: Eating Soup Cuts Calorie Intake Study finds a bit of broth can spell bliss for weight-watchers -- Robert Preidt TUESDAY, May 1 (HealthDay News) -- Having a bowl of low-calorie soup prior to a meal may help cut your total mealtime intake of amount of food and calories, a new study suggests. Penn State researchers gave low-calorie soup made of chicken broth, broccoli, potato, cauliflower, carrots and butter to volunteers before they ate a lunch entree. Diners consumed 20 percent fewer calories when they had both the soup and entree compared to when they did not have soup, the researchers found. The study authors, who were expected to present their work today at the Experimental Biology meeting in Washington, D.C., tested different forms of the same soup recipe -- separate broth and vegetables, chunky vegetable soup, chunky-pureed vegetable soup, and pureed vegetable soup. All versions of the soup proved equally filling. "Consuming a first-course of low-calorie soup, in a variety of forms, can help with managing weight, as is shown in this research and earlier studies. Using this strategy allows people to get an extra course at the meal, while eating fewer total calories," researcher Julie Flood, a doctoral student in nutritional sciences, said in a prepared statement. "But make sure to choose wisely, by picking low-calorie, broth-based soups that are about 100 to 150 calories per serving. Be careful of higher-calorie, cream-based soups that could actually increase the total calories consumed," Flood said. The study was funded by a grant from the U.S. National Institutes of Health.

He also told me that if you smell that "fishy" smell that you can soak in some warm - hot water in the tub w/ about 1/4 c. of baking soda.

Comment: hornet< I've never had a friend that stank in that way. I've had friends who stank like sweat or had stanky breath but have so far been lucky with other types of funk.

Comment: I was trying not to comment on the douching thing but I have a funny/embarrassing story to share. I had an annual gyna appoinment and like I'm sure most of us do, I took extra care to make sure that my pocketbook was "spring fresh". Well when my gyna had to do his business, he said...Miss Solei, your pocketbook does not smell natural and that is not good! At first, I thought he meant that I should have taken a little more time prpeparing for our appointment but he finished with "a pocketbook should not smell like a flower garden". Speaking of flower garden's, do we have any weekend gardeners on the board? I have two sago palms on my patio that don't appear to be doing to well, any ideas on how I can save them?

Comment: BTW, for the online shoe shoppers I found a new site: endless.com. They sell a lot of Macy’s brands as well as Charles David’s. I think they’re connected to amazon.com, but I’m not sure. I also think they’re linked to a higher-end site, but I forget.

Comment: >positive, my gyn told me the same thing. He said that we shouldn't use soap down there but it's hard not to...I just don't use as much as I used to but I just can't NOT put NONE down there, ya know?

Comment: OMG, you're not supposed to use soap? Uh, I CAN'T go without putting soap down there. Ain't no way you can tell me you can clean it with just water. HELLS NAW!! Especially if you've been doing the do. SMH

Comment: Also don’t have sex before an appointment *shaking head* They’ll be scheduling appointments for months ahead and having u watch dvd’s about cancer and going to specialist and stuff. Saying words like “irregular” and “inflamed”. Yep, learned my lesson the hard. It wasn’t until I got to the specialist, that I told him what I did that morning of my initial visit and he said that the sex was the cause of the irregular pap. But when it’s like 5 am and you do a double roll over, do you really think about the 10 am dr’s visit? It was the farthest thing from my mind.

Comment: LMAO @ "d*ck on your sagos* Yeah ija, he said not to use soap. I think that's about the only direction that I don't follow. That and wearing pantyliners daily. He said we shouldn't do that either...Oooh, funny story...I understand just WHY we shouldn't use soap on our cooch...years ago, I bought some Dove body wash for the 1st time...so, I went to wash cooch w/ it and that sh*t had her on FIYAH!!!! NEVER, EVER put body wash anywhere NEAR your cooch! That sh*t BURNS like hell!

Comment: IJA you are goofy...LOL...but hey a little sprinkin' of "D" always makes me feel a little better to, I'll ask my midnight caller to hook me up with some to feed my sago's. Our sunken freeway is no more and we're back in business! It's amazing how a two hundred thousand dollars a day incentive can rebuild a section of freeway in less than a month. The deadline was June 29th...cha-ching.

Comment: I’m bad too. I use all that heavily perfumed soaps: Bath and Body Works and Victoria Secrets. Now I’m using the Cocoa Butter body wash from the Body Shop and I think it’s a lil better for my kitty. But it just seems normal not putting soap on every outer surface of ur body, so I could never oblige that rule.
