sue, i learned of the Aryan connection when I took history at Ryerson. Apparently Hitler was well aware of this - maybe that's why he adopted the swastika, an ancient sanskrit symbol. and he also had racial prejudice against some European whites (I think it's the Slavs).

you're right though - i don't think Hitler's followers know about the connection to Indian people. I don't think they'd care anyway - all like how nuffa dem have replaced the swastika with the celtic cross as dem symbol. (maybe dem know after all...

The under what? Are you from London Arjen?

After seeing you use the word summen like my nephew the Brixton ebonics speaker I'd been meaning to ask you that. [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cool.gif[/img]

Whenever I happen to take a trip to London now, I always remember to use the word underground because one time I asked for directions to the subway at Algate (I believe) and was lost for 40 mins in a tunnel. [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70394-bawlout.gif[/img]

When my nephew comes here to visit me, he switches right over and uses the word subway out of fear that the opposite would happen to him. [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/704555_dwl.gif[/img]

Plus Suesumba was quite a bit older when she came here. I think most of her elementary school education was completed in Jamaica (correct me if I am wrong Suesumba).

Re: darker toned women

I think all women regardless of complexion benefit from highlighting the cheekbones. Black women should stay away from the reds and pinks and opt for a sheer shimmer....

Re: darker toned women

right skelly! you can highlight your cheekbone with a darker shade under the bone [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70409-waytogo.gif[/img] instead of a red on top [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/bannana_purple.gif[/img]
