I wonder what Gwenyth Paltrow would check?
Yesterday, my life's like, 'Uh-oh, pop quiz!' Today it's like, 'rain of toads.'

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

In the survey I'm doing now, first we ask if you're Hispanic/Latino. If so, there's a follow-up about that. Then we ask about race, and if you say "Asian" there's a follow-up where you pick from Asian Indian, Chinese, Filipino, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, or Other.
Pacific Islander is separate from Asian, though. I'm guessing Hawaii was a PSU at some point.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That's a good way to poll. What field, Strega?
My mother's a biochemist, and my sister was in qualitative analysis, so they hash these things out quite a bit. I just listen and take the odd note.

Our clinical trials have the following options for Race: White, Black, Hispanic, Asian/Pacific, American Indian. White is used interchangeably with Caucasian.

Sorry, PSU = primary sampling unit.
Oh, the company I work at does statistical research/analysis. But I was an English major, so
I just listen and take the odd note.is pretty true for me as well.
P-C, does that allow for multiple selections?

That chaps my ass. Hispanic is not a race, white is not an ethicity.

In news unrelated to the topic at hand, I think, popgurls has an interview with Jane. She talks about writing, blogging and who would have won Project Runway if she'd been writing the show. (Which is adorable.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Hispanic is not a race, white is not an ethicity.
Anything that I'm involved with (including the census) now asks if you're hispanic or not in a separate question. My personal talisman for why you need to do this is Alberto Fujimori.
