  2. Yes but I don't recall an epidemic of shooting each other.
  3. Pioneer Aaliyah was fifteen when they married. He had mentioned she was 14. She may have been as young as 12.
  4. Blacks White and Asians perhaps your 2/3 is a bit too high. The hatred as you say is wider than I had mentioned . What other group has such self loathing as their identity.

  6. Someone needs to tell those pesky bullets
  7. R&B singer and producer R. Kelly secretly wed a then 15-year-old Aaliyah in 1994, the same year her solo album debuted. Kelly met Aaliyah at the age of 12 and produced music for her, three years later they tied the knot. Though Kelly denies reports, the press uncovered a marriage certificate. Thats from Forbes magazine. However, a documentary filmed earlier that same year hears Kelly discussing Aaliyah’s age as he worked on her debut album. Footage of Kelly in a recording studio is overlaid with a voice recording in which he says: “Right now I’m producing a very talented lady – a young lady. She’s 14, Aaliyah. She’s real street.” A Cook County marriage certificate that was published by Vibe magazine, The New York Times reports, listed Aaliyah’s age as 18. She would have been 15 years old at the time. https://www.nme.com/news/music/r-kelly-footage-proves-he-knew-aaliyah-14-married-2430924#
  8. Numbers are integral part of science and without numbers it wouldn't be possible to conduct experiments. If numbers are created and not discovered then irs possible mathematics is built on fiction. https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/article/great-math-mystery/
  9. I wonder what the morality clauses would be for a Weapons Manufacturer?
  10. Cicely Tyson James Baldwin Arthur Mitchell Harry Belafonte More people know the work of the two actors than the two other artists.
  11. Blacks would have to be recognised as human by White America.
  12. I would say no people's ir served by celebrity worship. Its an incredible waste of resources. You are encouraging millions of children to aspire for a few thousand spots. That's why pimping and dealing is popular. You see it work in your neighbourhood
  13. R. Kelly Se The exavt opposite is true. Athletes develope a particular skill set. Which means that other traits or ignored. Writers are more qualified than athletes. I would rather have people who think and look at the human experience. Which isn't to say all writers are intelligent nor are all athletes not. Being a celebrity doesn't bestow admirable traits on the recipient. In fact it is more likely to cause problems.
  14. She doesn't need to be smart pretty woke the only adjective she needs to be is Fast
  15. If there are patterns in primes. It changes encryption. and perhaps mathematics.
  16. Different strokes
  17. Perhaps it is interesting to them. EmirpsEdit Primes that become a different prime when their decimal digits are reversed. The name "emirp" is obtained by reversing the word "prime". 13, 17, 31, 37, 71, 73, 79, 97, 107, 113, 149, 157, 167, 179, 199, 311, 337, 347, 359, 389, 701, 709, 733, 739, 743, 751, 761, 769, 907, 937, 941,
  18. I was wrong but Troy is more of the go to person for science and mathematics . Thanks Troy I found it because I happen to see a pattern in the first three. Which doesn't always work it gives false positives but it doesn't miss any of the numbers.
  19. This is the second post I have seen about her. But the first where the focus was on her looks more than her accomplishments. Or is this an extension of the man are too sexist thread?
  20. My mistake check my additions now they are divisible by 7. So I have not found anything.
  21. My mistake 8,589,869,056 1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 512 1024 2048 4096 8192 16384 32768 65536
