2.9 percent cubans internet access- The last official report on the website of the National Statistics Office, there were 1.6 million internet users in Cuba in 2009, representing 14.2 percent of the population. 3 However, only 2.9 percent of Cubans access the internet regularly and 5.8 percent routinely use email. Most internet users are only able to connect to a government intranet rather than the internet proper. Some sources estimate that only 200,000 residents have access to the world wide web.4 Most individuals who are able to access internet face extremely slow connections, making the use of multimedia applications nearly impossible. In January 2010, the government announced that it had expanded the national bandwidth and achieved a 10 percent increase in international connectivity. According to official data, Cuba now has speeds of 209 megabits per second (Mbps) for downloading and 379 Mbps for uploading. 5 Cuba continues to blame the U.S. embargo for its connectivity problems, saying it must use a slow, costly satellite connection system and is limited in the space it can buy. But in 2009, in a move that eased some aspects of Washington's prolonged sanctions on trade with Cuba, President Barack Obama allowed U.S. telecommunications firms to enter into agreements to establish fiber optic cable and satellite telecommunication facilities linking the United States and Cuba and to enter into roaming agreements with Cuban providers. However, these high-speed connections are not available to regular users and officials also noted that the government's plans did not include fostering private
use of the internet. 6 Cuba's leaders reiterated their demand for a complete end to the embargo, and official media ignored this important change in the U.S. legal framework. The bilateral relationship was affected by another incident in 2009 that touched directly on the lack of open internet access in Cuba. On December 4, the Cuban authorities arrested an American independent contractor, Alan Gross, who was in the country to
set up individual satellite-based internet connections as part of a U.S. government–funded project.

Milk Lasts About 5-7 Days After Sell-by Date- Are you one of those people who pour the milk down the drain on the expiration date?

Twinkies aren’t baked.  The sponge cake instead is made from a chemical reaction that causes a cake-like material to foam up.  It is then colored dark brown at the bottom to give the appearance of being baked.  (This is of course false.  Twinkies are in fact baked and their primary ingredients are flour, sugar, and eggs.)
