LABURPENA: Zezenketei buruzko Konstituzio Auzitegiaren doktrinak kulturaren, animalien babesaren eta ikuskizun publikoen gaineko eskumen autonomikoa onartzen du, eta, hala, Katalunian eta Balear Uharteetan zezen-ikuskizunak arautzeko gaikuntza ematen du. Hala ere, berariaz zehazten du animaliaren heriotza edo sufrimendua saiheste aldera horien funtsezko alderdi batzuk debekatu edo arautzean inbaditu egiten dela estatuak kultura-ondarearen gainean duen eskumena, kulturaren gaineko estatuko eta erkidegoetako eskumenak modu ez baztertzailean batzen diren esparruan gailentzen dena, kultura-balio komunak zaintze aldera. Halaber, baimena ematen dio Estatuari esku hartze zuzena izateko, Estatuko legegileak egin duen gisan, zezen-korridaren (modernoki ezagutzen dugun eran) aitorpena eta biziraupena bermatuko dituen ekintza publiko antolatua eta tratamenduorokorra sustatu asmoz. ABSTRACT: The doctrine of the TC on the celebration of the bulls, although it admits the autonomic competence in the matter of culture, protection of the animals and public spectacles like qualifications that qualify to regulate the bullfighting spectacles in Catalonia and Illes Balears, maintains that the prohibition or the regulation of essential aspects thereof, aimed at preventing death or animal suffering, invades the state competence in matters of cultural heritage, prevalent in the context of the non-exclusive concurrence of state and regional competences in culture ex art. 149.2 CE, aimed at preservation of common cultural values, and that authorizes the State to intervene intensively, as the state legislator has already done, to favor a general treatment and a superordinated public action that guarantees the knowledge and survival of the bullfight as we know it modernly. RESUMEN: La doctrina del TC sobre la fiesta de los toros, si bien admite la competencia autonómica en materia de cultura, protección de los animales y espectáculos públicos como títulos que habilitan para regular los espectáculos taurinos en Cataluña e Illes Balears, sostiene que la prohibición o la regulación de aspectos esenciales de los mismos, orientada a evitar la muerte o el sufrimiento animal, invade la competencia estatal en materia de patrimonio cultural, prevalente en el marco de la concurrencia no excluyente de competencias estatales y autonómicas en materia de cultura ex art. 149.2 CE, encaminada a la preservación de valores culturales comunes, y que autoriza al Estado a intervenir de forma intensa, como ya ha hecho el legislador estatal, para favorecer un tratamiento general y una acción pública supraordenada que garantice la recognoscibilidad y pervivencia de la corrida de toros como la conocemos modernamente.

In 2006, the state of Massachusetts suffered a political debacle over the merits of Marshmallow Fluff, a beloved, locally made marshmallow paste. In an effort to combat childhood obesity, state Senator Jarrett Barrios proposed that Fluff be restricted in public schools. His fellow state legislator, Rep. Kathi-Anne Reinstein, counter-proposed that the Fluffernutter (the fluff and peanut butter sandwich she and other locals grew up with) be named the official state sandwich. In the end, nostalgia trumped nutrition, revealing the cultural significance of this marshmallow treat. To generations of Massachusetts natives, Fluff symbolizes the innocence and irreverence of childhood. Furthermore, Fluff is an all-American icon: invented by an immigrant, it is the sole product of a family-owned company founded by returning WWI veterans. Since the political fallout, Fluff's populist heritage has been celebrated in an annual festival held in Somerville, Mass., birthplace of Fluff.
