I really wish I could help in some way. . .
I made several friends from Egypt last year at ISEF (International Science & Engineering Fair)…granted, I never talked much to them, but everyone was just kind of adding each other on facebook, and I do have a picture with a couple of them.
I just remembered them and went to their facebooks—-sure enough, they haven’t been on at all in the past few days. They all live in...

Doctor: When did you adopt?
My blonde Caucasian Mum: I'm sorry?
Doctor: (nods at me)
Mum: Oh, she's mine.
Doctor: (sighs) How old was she when you adopted her?
Mum: (impatiently) Her father's Japanese.
Doctor: I can see that, but WHEN did you adopt her?
Mum: Are you that daft?
Doctor: What?
Mum: Look, give me your pen and paper. I'll draw you a cartoon how her father and I made her. I promise I won't make it too smutty.
Mum and I in an examination room with a new doctor at our local health clinic when I was 11.

For those of you who don’t know, basically the federal government cannot give grants to schools that will be used...
