It's a Marten, Not a Weasel
Police say a man was carrying a dead weasel when he burst into a Hoquiam apartment and assaulted a man.
The victim asked, “Why are you carrying a weasel?” Police said the attacker said, “It’s not a weasel, it’s a marten,” then punched him in the nose and fled.
In the article I read, the final line was something like "The marten is a member of the weasel family."
ita, Eva Mendes is Cuban....so not really white. She grew up in Glendale and still lives there.
Today's google doodle is awesome! I love that you can play and record!
My silly nerd moment of the day -- you all know of Manhattanhenge, right? When I got home from walking the dog, I realized our driveway was experiencing Drivewayhenge, a similar, though less imposing, phenomenon.

Having grown up in South Florida I would note that some Cubans are white and some are black.
Basically, the white Cubans that came over after Castro's takeoer were the middle and upper middle class pre-revolution. While many Cubans still in Cuba or the ones that came over as Marielitos are black.
If you look at the Cuban baseball team, they're mostly black and Hispanic.
Which as an ex-HR person, I will note that Hispanic on your EEO reports is broken down into two categories nowadays with white and black categories.

Yeah, she can be white and Cuban. I didn't know if she was, though.
Cameron Diaz is pretty white. Isn't she supposed to be Cuban?
I have been feeling all Hulk SMASH today, so it makes sense that Feminist Hulk and I are on a wavelength.

Yes. But I'd argue that there is another missing category. In real life, she has a darker a complexion than both ita or me or my ex-boyfriend Malik (father was a Black Panther, yet he had a complexion lighter than my mother). I'd be hard pressed to say she was white Cuban.
Also, I'm always DEEPLY amused when my students apply for Cal States or UCs and they have to designate a race other than hispanic. Extreme indignity follows.

Yes. Definitely more white Cuban than Eva Mendes.
