*A Wa Da U Sink But Al Zis, Roby/?/*


Mike Nova:
A new dialect has arrived: GooglEnglish!
Will it, like an ominous worm, or rather like a new cultural virus change and destroy the Language as we (of course YOU!) know and own it? Or will it improve it?
Alarm! Alarm! The imminent danger to national treasures and treasuries, the coming linguistic catastrophe of Babylon: The GOOGLIZATION of languages (and GooglEnglisation of cultures?). How will we speak? And how will we think? And what would become of us?
Ah? And what would you think about this, Robby?

Un nuevo dialecto ha llegado: GooglEnglish!

¿Será, como un gusano de mal agüero, o más bien como un virus cultural nuevo, cambiar y destruir el Lenguaje como nosotros (por supuesto!) conocer y dueño de ella? ¿O va a mejorar?

¡Alarma! ¡Alarma! El peligro inminente para los tesoros nacionales y de los tesoros, la catástrofe que se avecina lingüística de Babilonia: La GOOGLIZATION de las lenguas (y GooglEnglisation de las culturas?). ¿Cómo vamos a hablar? ¿Y cómo pensamos? ¿Y qué sería de nosotros?

Ah? ¿Y qué piensas de esto, Robby?

Puerto Rico and politics
As an immigrant who came to this country at age 5 with my parents who were seeking more economic opportunity than their homeland offered in the 1950s (while many U.S.-born citizens were moving to Puerto Rico for tax “shelters”), I look forward to continued positive debate on the subject of immigration reform at a national level. States should not be creating bandage solutions (dare I imply scare tactics to wind political attention?) to something that is truly beyond their jurisdiction.
I didn’t have much of a say (nor did my parents for that matter) on the U.S. congressional votes in 1900, 1917, 1922 and as late as 1997 in a Puerto Rican Supreme Court hearing, which defines me as a Puerto Rican national with U.S. citizenship. Confused? Politics is never simple.
Let’s get real and become a state where we are leading the nation in good legislation not following bad laws created in other states! Remember, you did give me the right to vote, and you can be sure I will exercise that right at every opportunity.

Booming Brazilian city spreads into Amazon habitats

9:16 AM AST on April 07, 2012
9:12 AM AST
Weather Underground Forecast for Saturday, April 07, 2012. Expect scattered showers and thunderstorms to pop up across the Plains on Saturday. A strong low pressure system will slide off the Northern Rockies and into central Canada, pushing a cold front into the Plains. This system will pull energy and moisture in from the Gulf of Mexico, supporting showers and thunderstorms just ahead of the frontal boundary across the Plains and Upper Midwest. The southern side of this system will have more energy due to abundant Gulf moisture, thus, there is a slight chance that these storms will turn severe over the Southern Plains. Expect strong winds, large hail, and heavy rainfall in areas of severe thunderstorm development. In the West, a low pressure system sitting offshore of the West Coast will push a cold front eastward toward land. As this system approaches, expect increasingly cloudy skies across the coastal regions of the Pacific Northwest and northern California, with rain showers developing Saturday afternoon and evening, into Sunday morning. This system will remain relatively stationary, thus, expect areas of flooding due to repetitive rain showers. To the south, the rest of California and the Southwest will see a warming trend as a ridge of high pressure builds in from the south. In the East, expect another chilly morning as high pressure building over the Great Lakes continues pushing cold air in from Canada. Freeze and frost warnings remain in effect for the Northeast, Ohio River Valley, and Virginias as overnight low temperatures will dip into the upper 20s and lower 30s.
