Boston Globe: Hemingway papers from Cuba are now available at the JFK presidential library in Boston.Penultimos Dias links to the library’s inventory of the papers.
if that cancer vaccine amounts to anything I'll eat my keyboard. more myths from Cuba to be swallowed whole by credulous foreigners who still think Castro is the second coming.
It should be noted that as some of us were preparing for the coming weekend, there was a confrontation going on in Havana between non-official bloggers and government media personalities at the gates of a seminar sponsored by Rafael Rojas of Temas on the Internet in Cuba. Yoani Sanchez twitted that she got in using a wig, but that the wig came off when she asked a question. Rafael Rojas coined the term ciberchantecleo (sort of cyber slumming) for those of us who participate in blogs.
If the Cuban vaccine amounts to anything it will be the a boon for humanity. For instead of a Western company charging as much as humanely possible for the drug, a Cuban vaccine would be made available for all the people of the world.

That's right, Leftside, just like in Cuba's hospitals for the masses. All for free, except for a few frivolous luxury medicines, such as antibiotics, aspirin and x-ray film, not to mention food for the patients in the hospital.
Those wonderful Cuban M.D.s are paid about $30 a month, so to survive they steal the antibiotics, etc., and sell them on the street for the benefit of their future patients. What else would you expect of the worl's Medical Superpower?

Ooops! I meant to say that the Temas seminar was sponsored by Rafael Hernandez not Rafael Rojas. Sr.Hernandez did coined the term ciberchantecleo.
