    Castro, yep – I know of them – and hopefully I will find a way to sneak into the family tree – so far, I have succeeded in befriending the ayeeyo :D -

     

    Afromali, I won’t have to ask them – people usually brag about what they have –

     

    Jimca Lee, you should really let me pick out your nicks – I would do wonders with it -

    :D -

    Did I hear money? I have always considered green to be an attractive color,(inside jk) - anyways, I think there are rich somalian merchants in dubia and in the middle east, althought I can not name any - and I have yet to meet a somali who has more then a million in an account -

    Damn congrats - but the whole concept of marraige scares the crap out of me - i mean you have to trust and live with that person your whole life - it is like once you gone black there ain't no coming back - girl am happy for you and everything - :D glad to know am the only one gutless in here -

    why do i get the feeling that this pill has some serious side-effects - something that is meant to stop your bodily function is bound to harm you in one way or another - just like how the pregnancy patch increases your chances 500 times more of you suffering from stroke -

     

     

    <<< i think these doctors are running low on lab-rats -

    it is a known fact that somali women start to gain wieght after marriage - and i don't think the food is to blame - there is nothing wrong with been fat as long as you are healthy - and why are somali men that damn skinny? -

    lol - it is not about whites and monkeys mating - but rather the mutation of skin color - the traits are fairly the same but the shades of skin are different - the article speaks of "Race" as a major issue - however, such a thing as race doesn't exist - race as color is only a 500 year old illogical idea based on false assumptions when Europeans began exploring the wider world - and the articles gets more indepth with genetics - and the changing of genes to adapt to new environments as migrations took place in prehistoric times - am telling you even the famous Lucy skeleton found in Ethiopia gives the genetic mutation a whole new concept -

    Obessions with skin color is constantly growing and beleive it or not but people these days take drastic measures to change and abuse their looks or what they were born with. So I thought I would introduce this article to show just how pointless the concept of racial superiority is.

     

    Scientists Find A DNA Change That Accounts For White Skin

    By Rick Weiss

    Washington Post Staff Writer

    Friday, December 16, 2005; Page A01

     

    Scientists said yesterday that they have discovered a tiny genetic mutation that largely explains the first appearance of white skin in humans tens of thousands of years ago, a finding that helps solve one of biology's most enduring mysteries and illuminates one of humanity's greatest sources of strife.

     

    The work suggests that the skin-whitening mutation occurred by chance in a single individual after the first human exodus from Africa, when all people were brown-skinned. That person's offspring apparently thrived as humans moved northward into what is now Europe, helping to give rise to the lightest of the world's races.

     

    Leaders of the study, at Penn State University, warned against interpreting the finding as a discovery of "the race gene." Race is a vaguely defined biological, social and political concept, they noted, and skin color is only part of what race is -- and is not.

     

    In fact, several scientists said, the new work shows just how small a biological difference is reflected by skin color. The newly found mutation involves a change of just one letter of DNA code out of the 3.1 billion letters in the human genome -- the complete instructions for making a human being.

     

    "It's a major finding in a very sensitive area," said Stephen Oppenheimer, an expert in anthropological genetics at Oxford University, who was not involved in the work. "Almost all the differences used to differentiate populations from around the world really are skin deep."

     

    The work raises a raft of new questions -- not least of which is why white skin caught on so thoroughly in northern climes once it arose. Some scientists suggest that lighter skin offered a strong survival advantage for people who migrated out of Africa by boosting their levels of bone-strengthening vitamin D; others have posited that its novelty and showiness simply made it more attractive to those seeking mates.

     

    The work also reveals for the first time that Asians owe their relatively light skin to different mutations. That means that light skin arose independently at least twice in human evolution, in each case affecting populations with the facial and other traits that today are commonly regarded as the hallmarks of Caucasian and Asian races.

     

    Several sociologists and others said they feared that such revelations might wrongly overshadow the prevailing finding of genetics over the past 10 years: that the number of DNA differences between races is tiny compared with the range of genetic diversity found within any single racial group.

     

    Even study leader Keith Cheng said he was at first uncomfortable talking about the new work, fearing that the finding of such a clear genetic difference between people of African and European ancestries might reawaken discredited assertions of other purported inborn differences between races -- the most long-standing and inflammatory of those being intelligence.

     

    "I think human beings are extremely insecure and look to visual cues of sameness to feel better, and people will do bad things to people who look different," Cheng said.

     

    The discovery, described in today's issue of the journal Science, was an unexpected outgrowth of studies Cheng and his colleagues were conducting on inch-long zebra fish, which are popular research tools for geneticists and developmental biologists. Having identified a gene that, when mutated, interferes with its ability to make its characteristic black stripes, the team scanned human DNA databases to see if a similar gene resides in people.

     

    To their surprise, they found virtually identical pigment-building genes in humans, chickens, dogs, cows and many others species, an indication of its biological value.

    Learn to cook and sew? - But what about basic studies like science, math, literature, philosophy and what not - a girl in somali can learn how to sew and cook at home (like Moi) - i am glad they have established a sense of education for the girls but really sewing? - and does this come in english format (my somali is not as good as i would hope it to be)

    Kindness is my maryooley name castro - and am pretty sure you Faaraxs are smart enough to handle whatever i throw - may it be (a digsi for that matter) but you should be able to handle it.

     

    Dhub you competely misunderstood me - it is not that i don't want to be corrected - but because you did not understand my point - i didn't mean to insult you or anything - my bad ina abti -
