A difference that I have noticed amongst this cuisine compared to what I usually eat is flavor and variety. There are not many foods in the American culture that have as many different versions of one item with so many different things inside, and not to mention a lot more flavor, rather than bland Cuban cuisine.…
When I first heard that the Spanish extra credit would consist of going to a Cuban restaurant, I said to myself, “What’s Cuban food.” Looking back at that, I have now realized how much amazing food I have missed out in my life. As I walked into the tropical-like atmosphere I was wondering how the food would taste. Spicy, sweet, and deep-fried were words that were rushing through my head.…

Food plays an important role in Cuba's culture. Some of the stereotypes are true: Cubans love to party, and they can eat. Fresh, hearty and full of flavor are the best ways to describe the varied food of Cuba.…
How many people text behind the wheel of their vehicle? Can we relate to the following story? Jaci Lemons* is driving down the street, headed to school. The 17 year old driver is texting another friend. As she looks down to read the incoming text, Jaci veers off to the right and crashes head-on into the back of a parked vehicle. She is taken to the hospital, but after brief examination by the attending ER doctor, Jaci is released. Thankfully, the only thing bruised is her pride, and her pocketbook. Missouri should make texting while driving illegal for all drivers, not just the drivers aged 21 and under. Missouri has passed a state law, on Aug. 28, 2009, that prohibits drivers 21 years of age or younger from sending or reading a text while driving. While that is a great start, it isn't enough. Drivers across the country have been seen in their vehicles doing all sorts of dangerous, weird, and downright strange things while driving. Watching a DVD movie (really), dressing, putting on makeup, eating, texting, etc; but texting is what is causing legislatures some concern here in Missouri. The problem is we spend so many hours behind the wheel that seemingly, we are driving on "auto pilot". (Have you ever driven a while and then could not remember any of it?)…
After reading and analyzing the journals and articles, I now realize the serious consequences and problems that texting while driving, and driving underage can cause. There are many dangers that come with texting while driving that never occur to the people performing the action. "Nearly 5500 people were killed in distracted driving accidents in 2009, the Department of Transportation found." While most might believe that drunk driving is the culprit to most unforced accidents, they may not be educated enough to know that texting and driving is just as bad. Typically these bad habits such as texting and driving occurs in the younger generations such as my age, or young adults. In the state of New York the driving age has been raised to 17 or even 18. "The Arlington Va-based Insurance Institute for Highway Safety said yesterday the change would reduce crashes asking teen drivers and make the roads safer." Nearly 6000 deaths and 500000 injuries in 2008, resulting from just texting and driving! These results should not only be astonishing and shocking, but should stop people completely from texting and driving. Also distracted driving is playing a large roll on car accidents. "There is no safe what to drive distracted.", says DOT spokeswomen Sasha Johnson. "Hands free is not risk free." While driving the driver should always have complete focus and be paying close attention to the roads and their surroundings. New York State has recently raised the ticket to a maximum of $150 fine if a driver is caught on, using, or holding an electronic device. The state is hoping that by forcing the people to pay more they will be scared out of texting while driving. Although this should not have to have gotten so far, the state taking precautions is a very smart and strategic way of enforcing the law.…
In Harris County Texas it is said that one of the most dangerous crimes committed is drunk driving. Unfortunately drunk driving is a big issue hanging over the heads of law enforcement. Harris County is number one in the country for drunken driving fatalities, and yet I will make the argument that texting while driving is potentially as dangerous if not more as drunk driving. I believe the reason that this issue is more volatile than drunk driving because everyone is capable of texting while driving. Drunk driving is unique to people that drink alcohol, and when you take the entire population that drinks alcohol it pales in comparison to the population that text while driving. This issue is starting to make national headlines; the government is starting to pay attention to staggering statistics and acting. Since teenagers make up the majority of violators the government has found new ways to reach teenagers and young adults in marketing campaigns. While teenagers are not the only violators the marketing has been focused towards teenagers and young adults and it has shown to be effective in its early stages.…
Directly after the “Cold War” and the “Cuban Missile Crisis” 500,000 in total arrived in the Key West, Florida area. After settling down, Cuban Americans began to flourish. Cuban Americans have college completion rates twice those of other Latinos. Along with their Hispanic counterparts, Cuban Americans native tongue is Spanish as well. Cuban Americans hold a powerful force in politics in Miami through the Cuban-American National Foundation. Cuban Americans have different family ties compared to Cuban families and other Hispanics. Unlike other Hispanics who maintain traditional family structures, Cuban Americans often play different roles in their families. Since Cuban American women are considered the greater workforce, they often hold greater authority in the family. Religion for Cuban Americans is primarily Roman Catholic, but more and more Cuban Americans are clamming nonreligious because of the antireligious bias of the Castro…
I was on the freeway on my way to school when all of a sudden out of nowhere a car pulled into my lane without any signal. I slammed on my brakes because the car almost hit me. The driver never turned to look. I honked my horn, but the driver didn’t take into consideration my horn and kept driving. I changed lanes and caught up with the car to see who was driving, and it was a young female texting on her phone. She kept taking her eyes off the road to look down at her phone and text. I looked at her and shook my head but she kept texting while driving. Although many people think it’s okay to text and drive, they should take into consideration the danger they are putting themselves, and others in because texting while driving can often cause accidents leading to death, they tend to drive worse than an intoxicated driver, and they think they can multitask while driving.…
Sending or receiving a text takes a driver’s eyes from the road for an average of 4.6 seconds, the equivalent - at 55 mph - of driving the length of an entire football field, blind……
