Claudia Ferrari (left) and Rosa Eugenia Peña are serving prison sentences at PCFAS.
On Thursday, January 31st, Canadian ambassador to Honduras, Neil Reeder went to visit the National Women’s Prison for Social Adaptation (PNFAS) in Tegucigalpa to see how Canadian government funding of the Women’s Studies Office (CEM-H) benefits the women and what more is needed. The ambassador, impressed by the welcome he received, commented, “it is great that we can represent a faraway country; we do many projects to continue good relations with Honduras and we’re happy the aid from Canada is doing such good. We receive more satisfaction because of the moral impact and the feelings. We are willing to continue giving our support to this project.”Full Article

In Conklin’s previous instalment, (Feb. 2, 2008) he offers that firewood, the original bio-fuel, is still used by many rural Hondurans as a sole source for heat to cook and warm homes and contends that perhaps we should re-examine it as an alternative to oil. He illustrates the rituals of those who are dependent upon firewood as well as observes the differences between cultures that are dependent upon oil. Full Article

Brad Pitt (foreground) and Casey Affleck star as Jesse James and his assassin Robert Ford, respectively.

My first Super Bowl was, to say the least, an incredible experience. It brought back cherished memories when my dad took me to New York Giant football games at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx. Back then, the teams were coached by guys like Allie Sherman with legendary quarterbacks Charley Connerly, Y.A Tittle and Fran Tarkenton. Players like Spider Lockhart, Dick Lynch, Homer Jones and Pete Gogolak were the heroes then. It also meant going for years without world championship, quality teams.Full Article
