Puerto Rican cuisine
This article needs additional citations for verification. (March 2013) |
Puerto Rican cuisine has its roots in the cooking traditions and practices of Europe (Spain), Africa and the native Taínos. In the latter part of the 19th century, the cuisine of Puerto Rico was greatly influenced by the United States in the ingredients used in its preparation. Puerto Rican cuisine has transcended the boundaries of the island, and can be found in several countries outside the archipelago.
The cuisines of Spain, native Taíno and Arawaks, and parts of the African continent have had an impact on how food is prepared in Puerto Rico. Although Puerto Rican cooking is somewhat similar to both Spanish and Latin American cuisine, it is a unique tasty blend of influences, using indigenous seasonings and ingredients. Locals call their cuisine cocina criolla. The traditional Puerto Rican cuisine was well established by the end of the nineteenth century. By 1848 the first restaurant, La Mallorquina, opened in Old San Juan. El Cocinero Puertorriqueño, the island's first cookbook was published in 1849.[1]
Taino influences[edit]
From the diet of the Taíno (culturally related with the Maya and Carib peoples of Central America and the Caribbean) and Arawak people come many tropical roots and tubers (collectively called verduras) like yautía (taro) and especially Yuca (cassava), from which thin cracker-like casabe bread is made. Ajicito or cachucha pepper, a slightly hot habanero pepper, recao/culantro (spiny leaf coriander), achiote (annatto), peppers, ají caballero (the hottest pepper native to Puerto Rico), peanuts, guavas, pineapples, jicacos (cocoplum), quenepas (mamoncillo), lerenes (Guinea arrowroot), calabazas (West Indian pumpkin), and guanabanas (soursops) are all Taíno foods. The Taínos also grew varieties of beans and some maíz (corn/maize), but maíz was not as dominant in their cooking as it was for the peoples living on the mainland of Mesoamerica. This is due to the frequent hurricanes that Puerto Rico experiences, which destroy crops of maíz, leaving more safeguarded plants like yuca conucos (hills of yuca grown together).
Spanish/European influence[edit]
See: Spanish Cuisine
Spanish / European influence is also seen in Puerto Rican cuisine. Wheat, chickpeas (garbanzos), black pepper, onions, garlic, cilantro (using plant and seeds in cooking), oregano, basil, sugarcane, citrus fruit, eggplant, lard, chicken, beef, pork, and dairy all came to Borikén (Puerto Rico's native Taino name) from Spain. The tradition of cooking complex stews and rice dishes in pots such as rice and beans are also thought to be originally European (much like Italians, Spaniards, and the British). Olives, capers, olive oil, grapes, and wine play a big part in Puerto Rican cooking but do to the tropical climate these foods can not be harvest. The island had most of these foods important from Spain. Early Dutch, French, Italian, and Chinese immigrants influenced not only the culture but Puerto Rican cooking as well. This great variety of traditions came together to form La Cocina Criolla.
African influence[edit]
Coconuts, coffee (brought by the Arabs and Corsos to Yauco from Kafa, Ethiopia), okra, yams, sesame seeds, gandules (pigeon peas in English), many varieties of banana fruit, other root vegetables and Guinea hen, all come to Puerto Rico from Africa. African slaves introduced the deep-frying of food.
United States influence[edit]
The US influence on the way Puerto Ricans cook their meals came about after Puerto Rico became a territory of the United States as a result of the Treaty of Paris of 1916. The most significant has to do with how people fry food. The early Spaniards brought olive oil for cooking and frying, but importing it from Spain made it very expensive, and cooks on the island shifted over to lard, which could be produced locally. For 50 to 60 years, corn oil produced in the United States took the place of lard for making cuchifritos and alcapurrias.
Galletas de soda (soda crackers in tins, popularly known as export sodas from a popular brand name) are a US product of the 19th and early 20th centuries that reproduce the crunchy texture of the earlier casabe bread, and can be kept crunchy in the tins in high tropical humidity.
American / streaky bacon has also played a big part in Puerto Rican cuisine. It is used in rice, stewed beans, and to stuff mofongo and meats such as whole chicken and the breast. Bacon in Puerto Rico has found its way into traditional foods such as arroz con gandules and potato salad. Another meat that has found its way onto the Puerto Rican table from the U.S. is turkey, (pavo) which is not native to the island but a common holiday meal next to the older lechón, roasted whole and seasoned using either pernil or adobo, often served with a side of blood sausage and sweetened plantains.
South America influence[edit]
Other foods native to Latino America were brought to the island with the Spanish trade, such as cocoa, avocado, tomatoes, chayote, papaya, bell peppers and vanilla from Mexico and Central America. Potatoes and passion fruit were also brought over by the Spanish or Portuguese from Peru and Brazil.
Other influence[edit]
Panapén (breadfruit) was first imported into the British Caribbean colonies from the South Pacific as cheap slave food in the late 18th century. After spreading throughout the Antilles, panapén has also become an indispensable part of the Puerto Rican repertoire, both in puddings and crunchy, deep-fried tostones and making mofongo.

This was my first BB cream due all the nice comments for oily, acne prone skin.
The colour was okay for my NC15 skin. Actually everything was okay, except it makes me break out! Have no idea what ingredient it is and what other brand I could use..
My shade: NC30 with strong yellow undertones. The formula is so fantastic for oily, acne prone skin. The color, on the other hand, is extremely light and super pink. I have to mix this with a 2:1 yellower foundation to BB cream to make it work on my skin. I've tried it with Neutrogenas Skin Clearing Makeup and it mixes well with it and gives me flawless coverage without breakouts and awesome oil control! If only BRTC could release more colors like Missha has.
i love this...i have bought it three times. it adapts to your skin colour. the ingredients are wonderful - full of oil busting and spot preventing ingredients. IT DOES NOT GET RID OF SPOTS. it just doesn't make your skin worse...and does not clog pores. it smells nice like witch hazel and lavender and is extremely nice on my skin. it looks very natural - this is my go to base in the summer because it doesnt melt off my skin. only problem is - it's far too thick to apply just on its own - i apply it as half bb cream and half moisturiser of my choice...this way it goes on perfectly and looks gorgeous. i really think it's wonderful and it's a bargain on ebay!

I saw reviews about bb creams on youtube and this was to help out in blemishes....it did not for me. I have oily skin and acne prone, this did not help. I made my face look very pale. I also bought and tried Lioele Beyond the Solution- great coverage, lasted while I was at the beach BUT in photos made my face look pale. it felt caked on. I tried Aveeno BB cream and LOVE the glow and natural coverage BUT not for my oily face ... made it very oily. still searching ... will give Missha a try.
Absolutely adore this BB cream!
I have oily/combination skin, which sometimes breaks out in a few pimples but nothing too major to wreck havoc on my life. I recently heard about the amazing benefits of Korean BB creams and being a non-foundation girl, thought - YES finally a product line for me! Works well that I'm asian too because I believed that the Korean BB creams would be more suited to my skin colour etc.
Lioele BB was my first, the greyish cast that was left on my face was gross and it made me break out like I was going through puberty. Chucked that one immediately. Next up was Missha Signature BB cream in no.21, the colour again was a mismatch and I found the texture to be quite heavy and oily on my skin. It also resulted in a few nasty pimples on my chin.
Finally upon much research, I decided to give the BRTC blemish balm a try. Thank heavens I did! The BRTC has a slightly creamy texture, which doesn't offend me. Surprisingly the colour is a perfect match for my skin, even though others have mentioned that it's quite pale/pinkish. I'm quite pale of for an asian so perhaps my skin is yellow with pink undertones. Best of all, I haven't broken out in one single pimple since using this product. I sometimes mix it with Etude House's Aura Nymph Volumer no.3 to give myself a more dewy glow and still haven't suffered any from any blemishes...yet that is.
If you have oily/comb skin, then I def recommend you try this but before you do, just google some of the reviews online so you will be able to get a good grasp of what the colour is like.

I've been using this bb cream for a little under a month now and I can honestly say that its pretty good.
As an avid bb cream user and having tried many brands (over 15 at this point from brands ranging from skinfood, skn79, hanskin to missha and etud house), the brtc blemish recover balm is alright. It's not outstanding -- but it certainly isnt bad.
It has pretty good coverage, but its colour is really off. My uncle once noted while i had this on my face that it made me look sickly and that my complexion looked "off". That being said, if you apply too much it'll definitely look ghastly grey.
Its consistency is very tacky and thick. It is best worked into the skin with the warmth of your fingers. Not even a damp sponge or brush -- just fingers.
Why I really like this bb cream is all the medicinal properties to it. Upon testing it on my hand, I immediately smelled a strong scent of tea tree oil, which is known to improve acne. It's one of those products that you can put on your face and not worry about it causing or worsening breakouts. I initially bought this bb cream because my doctor prescribed an acne medication (Clindoxyl gel) that required SPF use daily. Instead of buying sunscreen, I decided to go for this because it would give me the coverage, healing properties and SPF that I desired.
In addition to all this, it has SPF, making it really great for everyday wear!

I bought this because I was desperate for something medicated to put on my irritated and breaking out skin.
First impression: Great coverage. Yes it's pink, and I am fairly yellow-toned, but when sheered out it is really not that bad. It has a more "blue" tone than pink actually.
Does it calm breakouts? I see some improvement, and there are no new breakouts or whiteheads. Definitely better than layering on foundation.
Finish: Glowy.
When layered over mattifying moisturizer, sunblock, and pore primer, covered with translucent powder: surprisingly does not stick well to the skin, and transfers easily. Especially in Singapore daytime.
When used alone on a bare face, however, it seems to adhere better to my skin, and sets to a non-sticky finish. Still has a glow that I don't mind.
I will use this for whenever my skin is acting up, and for non-makeup days when I just need to make short trips out.

I use this whenever I have a crisis on my face. Either under powder that matches my skin color or mixed with a darker foundation. The best way is to used it like a concealer over trouble spots (in thicker layers) and spread it thinly over the rest of the face. It will not last by itself, and makes me looks like a ghost because my skin is rather tanned (naturally), so using some light powder to keep it in place will do. Dries up flareups, doesn't cause new ones but makes my skin a bit red, maybe due to the tea tree oil which my skin doesn't like. Not bad overall, wouldn't repurchase due to the extremely light shade of this.

Okay this isn't going to be much of a review since I only managed to wear it once, but I thought I should issue a warning about just how pink this BB cream is. And I mean PINK. I'm your typical pasty white English person with neutral undertones so I figured I could get away with this, but nope! It's just unbelievably pink. I tried mixing it with a very yellow tinted moisturiser, and then used it as a base for a yellow-toned powder foundation but still the pink prevailed, rendering it totally unwearable. This has the best coverage of any BB cream I've used and didn't seem to irritate my skin at all (though if you're sensitive to tea tree oil you'll want to steer clear) so it's a shame I couldn't find a way to make it work. If you're thinking of buying this be sure to order some samples from eBay before purchasing the full sized product, that way you can see if it works for your skin tone or not!

Four arrested in two separate Longview robberies
POSTED: Friday, July 19, 2013 - 10:20am
UPDATED: Friday, July 19, 2013 - 11:45am
Longview, TX — Longview Police have arrested four people who they believe were involved in two separate robberies.
On July 18th, just before 5:30 p.m., police received a call about a fight at Broughton Park in the 800 block of Martin Luther King Blvd.
When Officers arrived, they found that a man had been assaulted and robbed at gunpoint by several men.
The victim was able to identify the alleged robbers. Two of them were found near the park, and another was found hiding inside a slide.
Two of the men were identified as Tony Nelson, 18, and Bron Quivius Gray, 17, both of Longview.
The third suspected robber is a juvenile, and was taken to the Gregg Coungy Juvenile detention center.
Nelson was charged with Aggravated Robbery and Possession of a Firearm by a Felon in a Weapon Free Zone.
Gray was charged with Aggravated Robbery and Unlawfully Carrying a Weapon in a Weapon in a Weapon Free Zone.
Four guns were found at the scene.
Another unrelated robbery happened at 11:30 p.m. in the 1900 block of East Marshall Ave. in Longview.
When officers arrived, they were told that a man had come into a store at that location and had lunged at the clerk from behind as she opened the cash register drawer.
The robber then grabbed the register and money as he ran out of the store.
The suspected robber was identified Eric Antonio Howard, 48, of Mt. Pleasant, was arrested a short time later at a motel near the store.

Couple of days back, Indian Prime Minister, Manmohan Singh, reminded NRI that they can vote in Indian elections. We had won this right in 2010 itself, when the Representation of People act was amended. But NRIs have to be physically present in Indiato vote in the Indian election.
The question is, how many of us will actually bother to do so? Will we undertake a travel plan to India for voting in the election? NRIs were first allowed to register in last year's local elections, which took place in five Indian states. Kerala is the only state where NRIs bothered registering at all. A total of 8,000 NRI Keralites registered of which only very few voted.
Unless government make more provisions for voting other than being physically present, the scheme will doubtfully be a failure. Some countries offer even more options, even in UK, you are eligible to delegate someone else to vote on your behalf.
Hope Election Commission takes adequate steps to ensure that they can set up polling stations in embassy or vote through mail option; else this is another good initiative that will not pick up.

Tony Knight from Knight Engines in Adelaide has posted up some amazing things over the years, including reworking a 24L V12 tank engine and countless alloy V8 porting jobs.
His current work is a Datsun cylinder head for a competition engine. He has welded up most of the combustion chamber, ported it and has even moved the entire head across the block 2mm!
Tony explains:
Starting with an open chamber U67 L20B casting – it doesn't really matter which head I started with as long as it is a big port one, you'll see why in a sec.
Aiming to make a really, really powerful 2L datto:
Got it all stripped down, seat inserts & guides out back to a bare alloy casting, then out with the TIG welder & spend a couple of hours making rods disappear"
Tony also commented on his willingness to share his experience with the broader automotive community:
"I have an accutig 300 – 300A capable & 100% duty cycle with water cooled torch etc.
Depending on the area I was using between 130 – 220A, it could be done with a 200A machine, but only just. The chamber design will be the secret squirrel stuff, but I'll post it up anyway, along with an explanation of how/why it works.
I've drawn from the knowledge of others on many occasions, you can't learn all this stuff on your own, there is far more than a lifetimes knowledge to obtain – may as well pass on what I can. I wouldn't be where I am without the help of guys like Peter Schaeffer, Peter Michaels, Bill Hanson, Bob Sherry etc.
Nor would I be here without the information posted online by yanks like Darin Morgan, Chad Spiers etc.
I'm just passing it forward, just like they did, it's only fair"

|NASA, the undisputed King of Press Releases
Thursday, August 11, 2011
A team from NASA is claiming to have found nucleobase-like molecules on a meteorite. They also claim that their signal (unusual nucleobase analogs to include 2,6-diaminopurine) is well above background and is not found in terrestrial controls. As much as I want to implicitly trust this data, my experience with NASA biochemistry is that they shoot first and think/ask questions later. But the one thing they do better than anyone else: crow about it.

Meet the scientists of JKW Lab
Tuesday, August 9, 2011
Hi my name is Hannah Lachance and I am a laboratory technician in the JKW lab. The main project I am working on involves studying how organisms such as E. coli and B. subtilis react to RDX exposure.
Techniques I use in these experiments includes growing cell cultures in various mediums, extracting RNA and DNA, running reverse transcriptions in order to obtain cDNA, using organism specific primers to run PCR and QPCR and performing gel electrophoresis. I highly enjoy working in the lab because it helps reinforce all that I have learned in school in a very practical and meaningful way. In addition, I get to work with amazing people and have fun while learning and accumulating valuable skills.

Mine are going over too Andy and I'm just down the road from you, but I am in god's country
Could No2 be snow in summer, Cerastium tomentosum?
Not quite the same and pretty pricey but should do a similar job...
Deffo don't throw it away as Wintersong suggest. I would cut out any dead stems, and hopefully it will regrow from below ground. I have several Clematis is terracotta pots and they do fine, but they do need extra attention in terms of feeding and watering.
Wilting and die back can be quite common in group 2 clematis, especially newly bought ones. They can either put on too much top growth so the roots can't support them anymore, or because they aren't being treated with commercially available fungicides succumb to wilt. But generally they do recover and once they get older and more established are more robust.
From the RHS
A few doesn't sound like a major infestation. I haven't seen any of these in years, I remember them in my parents garden and always found them really interesting. When my dad first told me they were cuckoo spit I took it literally and thought it was great that cuckoo's were spitting in our garden.
Are you bragging or complaining Peter
No need for the embarrassed smiley, this is one of the reasons the forum's here for
Don't take whole branches out, just the bits that had flowers on them (which are now dead). Although it's too early for proper summer pruning, which is done towards the back end of the summer, it won't harm the tree at all.
I don't use pesticides at all, it's a personal choice we made when we started growing our own fruit and veg. I can put up with pests such as green/white fly and slugs and snails, what would the likes of ladybirds, hover flies, lacewings and song thrushes have to feed on? If they start getting out of balance (and for greenfly and white fly so far this year that is the case) a thumb and finger is all that's needed. Not many ladybirds about at the moment in our local area but the balance will soon return.
My box hedging was covered in a lot white fly, and I mean a lot, but after going over it with the hosepipe on a fast spray it seems to have eliminated them....for the time being anyway!

Leinster and Ireland have suffered a blow after it was confirmed that Sean O'Brien will miss four months due to shoulder surgery.
The PRO12 side's head coach Joe Schmidt said the 26-year-old back rower, who dislocated his shoulder in a recent win over Ulster, is done for the season.
"Sean had an operation last Friday and he's likely to be out for four months, maybe beyond that," he said on Friday's Late Late Show in Ireland.
O'Brien could even have played his last game for Leinster as his future remains uncertain, with Toulon one club rumoured to be chasing his signature.

If you are already a guest or a member sign in below.
If asked to name a market, people in Melbourne might instantly think of Queen Victoria Market. In Adelaide, Central Market is likely to be top-of-mind, and in Sydney, many would likely nominate Paddy's or Flemington. How do these and the other smaller local markets held in the schoolyards and open spaces of our suburbs and towns differ from farmers' markets?
Markets like Adelaide Produce Market, Brisbane Markets, Melbourne Markets, Newcastle Markets, Market City (south of Perth) and Sydney Produce Market (popularly known as Flemington) are all examples of wholesale produce markets. Only Sydney Produce Market also sells to the public (though generally in bulk) . The stallholders at these markets are not the growers themselves, they're largely wholesale middlemen onselling to retailers.
Think Paddy's Markets in Sydney, Central Market in Adelaide, Queen Victoria Market in Melbourne. These aren't farmers' markets — the produce at these markets is mainly sold by a mix of retailers, though depending on the market, you may also find some growers there. Some also sell crafts, homewares, DVDs and so on (something most true-to-concept farmers' markets don't allow).
Local markets that often sell some fresh produce, but also craft, clothes or other items; they're often run by local councils or community groups. These markets don't require stallholders to be farmers — they can include resellers, who may have bought their goods from the central markets, or indeed anywhere else. There may be some growers stalls there, but the markets are not farmers' markets.
These markets may include growers, but it's not necessarily part of the deal. Because of the challenge of sourcing a wide range of organic produce throughout the year, these markets often also allow organic resellers (as well as other things like crafts and alternative therapies), so if the provenance of the food is important to you, ask who grew it and where the stallholder sourced it. Also, as always, look for 'certified organic' labels — it's your best guarantee of true organic practices.
There's currently no accreditation system in place here for farmers' markets, unlike in the UK and US , and until some funding is available, national or even widespread accreditation and auditing of markets and vendors are a long way off. In Victoria, however, some progress is being made. The Victorian Government has provided the Victorian Farmers' Market Association with some funding and work has started on developing an accreditation system there. The Australian Farmers' Markets Association (AFMA) says one of the best protections consumers have now is that genuine farmers' market stallholders quickly report neighbouring stallholders with dodgy practices to the market manager — and this tends to keep stallholders honest. But the market manager's decision about the allowed practices is only as good as the market's charter — what does it allow and what does it prohibit? Your best protection is to enter into a discussion with stallholders and get a feel for their knowledge and relationship with the foods they're selling.

Ahead of his Formula One race debut at this weekend's European Grand Prix, Renaults Romain Grosjean talks about his preparations for the Valencia race, his illustrious team mate Fernando Alonso, and his hopes for the event
Q: Romain, you will race with Renault for the rest of the season. How does it feel to have this opportunity?
Romain Grosjean: Of course I'm very excited and I want to thank the team for giving me this chance. I started dreaming about being a Formula One driver when I was seven or eight years -old when I was watching the battles between Prost and Senna on television so to make my debut in Valencia really is a dream come true.
Q: Does it feel special to drive for the only French team on the grid?
RG: My goal has always been to become a Formula One driver and to do that with a French team makes it even more special. Renault have supported me since 2006 and it was only with their help that I could afford to continue racing. There is maybe a bit more attention because people have been waiting for a French driver in a Renault, but I will do my best to show that they were right to believe in me.
Q: How valuable has it been to attend all the races as third driver this year?
RG: It has been really helpful as I've got to know everybody and seen how the team works. Attending all the meetings and debriefs during the last six months will certainly help me make the most of this opportunity.
Q: How does it feel to be team mate to Fernando Alonso - a double world champion?
RG: He is a great champion - maybe the best driver in Formula One and I'm looking forward to working with him for the rest of the season. We already get on well and because he has so much experience I know there is a lot I can learn from him.
Q: You raced in Valencia in GP2 last year - what did you think of the circuit?
RG: It's a mix between a street course and a normal circuit because in some places the track is narrow and tricky and in other places it's really wide with lots of run-off. It's not the easiest place to make your debut, but I've always liked street races and enjoy the atmosphere of being in the middle of a city.
Q: How have you been preparing for your debut?
RG: I've tried to make my preparation as normal as possible, although I have been training my neck muscles more than usual because Formula One is more demanding than GP2 on this part of the body. I've also taken some holiday time during the summer break to make sure I am fresh and 100 percent ready for Valencia.
Q: What are you hopes for the weekend?
RG: I've only driven the R29 in straight-line testing so my first race will be a learning experience. It's difficult to set myself an objective so my first priority will be to get comfortable with the car, build my confidence over the weekend and do the best job I can for the team.

Strange, it is a brand new phone. I bought it in Germany, the menu is in German. Which languages are installed by default? I exchanged the micro-SD card to a bigger one. Could it be that I lost important files, because of the sd-card change?

Which languages should be available with a C5 bought in Germany? I mean the menu is in German, I mean the language for the speaker, who reads the text.
25-07-2010 0:22
I found out, that we are talking of a different language option. I do NOT mean, the display language. The display language is ok.
Sorry, I don't know the exact names in English. It should be something like Menu / Applications / Language.
Which languages do you see there?

All Nokias have English. Those sold in Western Europe would typically include also French, German and Italian, then depending on exactly where in Western Europe they are sold possibly also Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch and/or Turkish.
27-07-2010 9:07
I know one C5 bought in Germany and one from Austria which contained only English. Where can I get the language-file for reading messages?

How can I get french as my phone language? I'm living in Finland, but want to use french as my phone language, which is not available in my phone's settings.
I've installed french language pack from nokia care centre, but it is only helpful when I use my phone's dictionary.
Thanks for replies!

Download and install Opera MIni 5.1. Goto power user settings by entering config: to the address bar. scroll down the page and set "Use bitmap for complex script" as "Yes". Finally save your settings and goto any web page that uses local language. Most of web pages can be read through this option, that using Unicode character encoding.

At the beginning of every match I have to move it so the bottom doesn't run under my HUD. Also, I wish death timers had more of their own space, more toward the middle of the board and in a color that's not red-on-faded-red.
Agreed. At the very least we should be able to permanently set the locations/sizes of the various HUD elements. A similar problem still persists with the surrender box.

It's way too large at some resolutions. We are fixing this in an upcoming patch.
Veruca Salt
Mr Scorpio
Amen to that. The new scoreboard is not as friendly as the old one. Wouldn't mind having an option to use the old board.
Can you add a way to make it bigger? It's so tiny at my resolution.
Can you make it look like it used to? I liked that one much much better.
i hear season one ends in late august confirm/deny? o wait
Junior Member
I liked the previous one with the "towers destroyed" count, but I feel it would be nice to have this categorized by team so we don't have to physically look at the mini map and count the buildings destroyed.

Picture embedded below. (from http://www.daybydaycartoon.com/2009/08/29)
This picture links to the article at http://news.cnet.com/8301-13578_3-10320096-38.html which expresses concern over the ambiguity of a revised bill. If passed it would give the president 'emergency control of the internet', sort of.
"The new version would allow the president to "declare a cybersecurity emergency" relating to "non-governmental" computer networks and do what's necessary to respond to the threat. Other sections of the proposal include a federal certification program for "cybersecurity professionals," and a requirement that certain computer systems and networks in the private sector be managed by people who have been awarded that license.
"I think the redraft, while improved, remains troubling due to its vagueness," said Larry Clinton, president of the Internet Security Alliance, which counts representatives of Verizon, Verisign, Nortel, and Carnegie Mellon University on its board. "It is unclear what authority Sen. Rockefeller thinks is necessary over the private sector. Unless this is clarified, we cannot properly analyze, let alone support the bill.""
A situation may develop that requires the government to step in taking temporary 'control of the internet' for the collective defense and protection of the country. The problem here is that nothing is defined, nothing is spelled out. What constitutes and emergency situation? What are the limits of this power? Is there a time frame or thresh hold where the government must relinquish control? Without some specificity the executive branch is effectively given free range to do as it wishes for any reason. I use executive branch because this is not just about Obama. This is about growing government in unforeseeable ways giving unreasonable discretion and power to whomever holds the office. Even if Obama chooses not to abuse this assuming it passes, that does not mean the next president will not; or the president after them and so on. More specificity should be added to the bill before it is even brought up for consideration.
Allahpundit opines similarly; "We've written about this before but the new and "improved" version of the bill's just been leaked by Jay Rockefeller's office. Remember the Bush years, when the Democrats ferociously opposed executive power? Good times.
Here's the relevant section of the statute. The problem's not that it explicitly grants Obama all sorts of detailed powers; it's that it's not detailed at all, leaving the limits of executive authority in an emergency perhaps only to The One's imagination."

By now, your baby weighs 1 pound 5 ounces (700 g) and is about 8.5-9 inches (22 cm) in length. At this time the baby's bones are hardening and the brain is growing at a rapid speed. The body parts would appear relatively proportional at this time.
Today, taking a childbirth education class is part and parcel of being pregnant and preparing for your baby's arrival. The classes will not only teach you techniques on how to deal with the pain associated with labor and delivery, but also about proper diet and exercise during your pregnancy. It is a great opportunity for bonding with your partner as well as meeting other people that are experiencing many of the same physical and emotional changes that are related to pregnancy and a new baby.
It is not unusual to feel apprehensive about the actual birthing process and to wonder what is really going to happen the day of your delivery. Getting education during your pregnancy can serve as a tool to help you prepare for that day. Some women are concerned that they will have no control over their labor and delivery, but with education you will feel much more confident and in control when the actual time arrives!
There are three common childbirth education techniques that are taught. These include: Lamaze, Bradley, and Read. The techniques are all slightly different, but the basic theories revolve around how to manage pain by using special breathing techniques, along with exercise and diet during pregnancy. While some of them are more focused on dealing with the pain of labor without any supplemental medication, others support medication as well. It is important, before you take a class, to decide if you are considering medications or an epidural so that you take the appropriate class for you and your focus on childbirth.
Many classes will help you in developing a birth plan. If you do outline a birth plan while in the class, just be sure that it will work hand in hand with the hospital where you are planning to deliver. Discuss your birth plan with your health care provider. Every hospital has different policies and procedures that they follow. Often the hospital you choose for your delivery may have childbirth classes available in the facility.
What's the difference between Lamaze, Bradley, and all the other approaches to childbirth? Fill out this childbirth education class checklist to determine which method of childbirth education is right for you.
Meet some expectant moms in your area for moral and physical support. Join a group for pregnant women or enroll in a prenatal exercise class. You never know: You and your future baby may gain new, long-lasting friendships!

The man caught on surveillance robbing the First National Bank of Central Texas was arrested Monday.
Police have identified the man as 34-year-old Brian Jackson. Jackson is currently being held on robbery charges without bond.
Authorities were tipped to his whereabouts by a woman who says she agreed to drive Jackson to the bank and then to a nearby hotel.
Jackson's first possible day for bond is June 24th.
