Western Civilization: A Value Worth Saving
2008-04-13 09:08:00 Although I find it preposterous that White people themselves need to be saved from extinction, and cannot figure out any lawful way to so anyway, I think that White Nationalists (WN's) like Jared Taylor do make some interesting points. Taylor, like most WN's is a hardcore conservative, but when he talks about saving White civilization, the values he credits White civilization with are positively liberal.To be sure, I do disagree with the WN contention that Euro Whites created these liberal, free and humanitarian structures due to some unique endowment of their genes, though is it is an interesting argument. At the end of the day, it is not really falsifiable.With US Whites at 64% and dropping, a White majority in the US is probably a defeated dream. But a non-White majority in the US need not be the disaster that WN see it as. Even at 64% White, we still have one of the largest economies on Earth. Further, I feel that US non-Whites for the most part assimilate to the basically W...

Well, I guess all Asians look alike
2008-03-07 02:39:00 The Atlantic Magazine, which took a left turn after Michael Kelley was killed covering Iraq, has now hit the bonkers stage. The right wing blogosphere is up in arms at their slander of American troops as sociopaths, a blogpost discussing an alleged rape of a Japanese woman by a Marine… a reminder of one of the less savory dividends of U.S. bases in your backyard. U.S. military personnel have been raping Okinawans for the last 60-plus years… Yes, the overwhelming majority of U.S. military personnel aren’t sociopaths…But… Hmmm… the headline now reads “Japanese prosecutors have dropped charges against a U.S. Marine accused of rape in Okinawa”…oh well, never mind. The story now claims that the girl raped was 14 years old and the charges dropped only because her family decided against pressing charges. That doesn’t stop their hysterical condemnation of US troops stationed overseas: downtown Baghdad or Falluja likely won&rs...
Westerners' Brains and East Asians' Brains Function Differently!

In American culture, the individual ...

Australoid Genes in Southeast Asians
2007-12-24 15:59:00 As we noted in a previous post, many amateur Internet anthropologists, NE Asians, White Supremacists and other folks argue that SE Asians have substantial Australoid influence, which influences their phenotype. This harkens back to an earlier era in anthropology when this view held wide currency.Australoid, a term which has fallen out of favor but still deserves to be used, refers properly to Papuans and Australian Aborigines.Australoids definitely refers to Papuans, who can be characterized that way both anthropologically and genetically. The Yali are a tribe in Western New Guinea, presently being colonized by Indonesian settler-colonist criminals with the assistance of US imperialism as "Irian Jaya". This Yali tribesman has an interesting phenotype that I can't quite characterize. His eyes look sort of Asian. Love the bone through the nose.It does not refer to Melanesians, who are Asians with significant Australoid base. Whether or not it properly refers to Negritos and Veddoids ...

Are Asians Prone To Having Payday Loans?
2007-11-22 22:51:00 If you have been able to live in asia for quite sometime now, i think it wouldnt be very hard to imagine why alot of asians are in the very position to have a payday loan or credit. This usually happens after there is a celebration or something that has to have a grand offering to gods or maybe fiest of saints which usually happens in southeast asia like thailand and the philippines. This gives me another dilemma that I think would be very good to be posted here on this blog.Are asians really prone to having paypay loans?Well, i think the answer to this question is really self explanatory and a rather an obvious one to all asians. Yes! They are really prone to having loans because in my opinion, asians are inevitably grand in preparing something. Think about the japanese on how they prepare for their holidays, the malaysians on how they celebrated independence and the philippines on how they celebrate fiest of their saints.Payday loan consolidation might just be the one problem solv...

Why Do Asians Get Bad Credits?
2007-11-20 09:56:00 Is it because of geographic location? or cultural effect perhaps? Or maybe because asians are newbies when it comes to credit management? This is my topic for today's post.Its not very uncommon to see a business close down because of bad credit here in asia or most specifically, in the philippines. Bad credit as we know it is not something that comes overnight, it is the repeated unnecessary buying and spending which is out of the capacity of the payee. From this definition alone, we can say that in every action or transaction that we make, we must be mindful enough of its consequences in the future.For everyone who are in this situation, my suggestion for you guys is to wisely choose your credit offers while taking into consideration your spending power and preferences. It is only through this way that you will be able to earn some money. Take my word for it!

Which Is Best For Asians, A Credit Or Debit Card?
2007-11-20 05:11:00 Three months ago, I was very anxious to earn money online. I came up with this blog, applied to almost every earning program available and just persevered. Now that I am starting to make real money from blogging, I am faced with a dilemma on how to be paid, when to get paid and how to do balance transfers. Well, im trying to figure things out again as I did when I started blogging and interest free credit cards would really help alot. This raises a question on my mind though, which is better for asians, debit or credit cards ?Personally, I have to go for mint credit cards than debit cards. Why? Primarily because of the benefits that you can have while using one. Money-less transaction has become a necessity with today's fast forwarding society and a credit card would be the best tool for an asian who is fast becoming a globally competitive race.

Asians In Texas May Be Seven Times More Likely to Develop Cancer
2007-10-22 17:06:00 Asian-Americans may be seven times as likely to be diagnosed with certain cancers, according to the American Cancer Society and Melissa McCracken, first author of a study focusing on cancer rates in the U.S.'s Asian population, released earlier this week in CA, a Cancer Journal for Clinicians.While Asian-Americans have a lower overall incidence rate of cancer than other ethnic populations in the U.S., the disease is still a main cause of death for the group and accounts for more fatalities than heart disease. Stomach and liver cancers, for instance, are much more likely to occur in the United States' Asian population.It's a serious public health issue for the country, with so many immigrants arriving every year, many of whom lack health insurance and the communication skills to effectively seek treatment, and some of whom carry bacteria and viruses -- which can cause cancers -- uncommon in the U.S. While still a small minority in Texas, at just under 4%, or approximately 850,000,...

Asians and belly fat
2007-08-29 23:09:00 I do not have a weight problem, but I do have a belly fat problem. Even when I was a skinny teenager I had a fat tummy in comparison to the rest of my body.Now that I am older, I do not know if there is something I can do about reducing the belly fat. What bothers me is that the fat could be the inner abdominal fat, or visceral fat that is associated with heart disease and diabetes.A Canadian study found that the Chinese and South Asian participants tended to have a greater proportion of visceral fat. That means Asians are more likely to develop weight-related illnesses like heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes. :-(By Terri ColesTORONTO (Reuters) - The danger in putting on weight isn't just a matter of how much, but also where the fat goes -- and it seems some ethnic and racial groups have a tendency to gain fat where it does the most damage.Compared with people of European ancestry, those of Chinese and South Asian ancestry tend to have relatively more inner abdomin...

"Asians" drive burning car into airport terminal at Glasgow airport
2007-06-30 21:07:00 About a day after the bomb scare over in London, another terrorist attack takes place at the Glasgow airport. Sky News (via Hot Air) has this to say about who the culprits are:It comes just a day after two car bombs were found in London. And it is in the same week that Gordon Brown became Britain's new Prime Minister, and is exactly seven days before the second anniversary of the 7/7 attacks in London.The Jeep was being driven at around 30mph when it smashed into a glass door at Terminal One of Glasgow airport.Hundreds of shocked holidaymakers were in the area at the time, and witnesses said some of them removed gas cylinders from the jeep.There are reports the occupants - described as Asian males - were trying to pour petrol on the flames.In North America, when we say Asian, it often means people of Chinese, Japanese and Korean descent. But in Britain, it often means people of Pakistani and Afghanistani descent. There's your answer, but most importantly of all, a clue to that thi...

The 32-year-old rock star was himself an abandoned Amerasian child, who eventually made it to the United States with the help of a charitable foundation and sponsor.“Yes, Kuya Allan!

Asians: The New American Villan
2007-04-24 06:01:00 In today's New York Times, it reports that two CBS Radio personalities have been put on suspension following complaints from an Asian-American group concerning a six-minute prank phone call to a Chinese restaurant "peppered with ethnic and sexual slurs."In the skit, a series of apparently unsuspecting employees of a Chinese restaurant are berated by a caller who tells one woman he would like to ?come to your restaurant? to see her naked, especially a part of her body he refers to as ?hot, Asian, spicy.? The caller also attempts to order ?flied lice,? brags of his prowess in kung fu and repeatedly curses at several employees.Not only was this call played the day after Imus' comments, it was also played the day after Imus was fired. How does that make sense? Now, full disclosure here, I am Asian-American, and I am offended by this skit and this story. I absolutely think these radio hosts should be fired. And, I think that CBS Radio should suffer some consequences as well.I'm on the...

It was an antidote to the Asian Exclusion Act of 1924. Before 1965, Asians comprised about ~2% Asian (in 1960) of Californians, the 2003 census has the ...
