 Although a number of independent, private organizations tackle poverty and those less fortunate in Honduras, there are also a number of state initiatives that aim to address the issue as well. One such mission is IHNFA (Honduran Institute for children and families). IHNFA deals with a huge population, helping children from poor backgrounds, including those from single parent households and orphans.Full Article
Two beaked whales wash up on the beaches of Utila, Bay Islands

Special for Honduras This Week
Photo: Dr. Loretta Potts/Honduras This Week
A beaked whale (one of two) washed up on a beach in Utila and eventually died.
On January 3, 2008, a whale was found still alive washed up near Chepes beach in Utila, Honduras. The locals who found her pulled her up on to the beach where she expired. WSORC (Whale Shark and Oceanic Research Center) was called to determine the cause of death and the type of whale. Loretta Potts D.V.M., Dr. Rob Davis, Bryan Becker, Rodger Mehrer, all of WSORC, arrived on the scene that morning. Rose and George Gaboural along with Redondo, a local fisherman, aided in this large task. Full Article

Tony Stone pauses while meeting friends and fans in La Ceiba.
It is well reported that, although Honduras has many of the luxuries associated with developed countries, it still remains a third world country. It is the second poorest country in the Southern Hemisphere and one of the poorest countries in the Western Hemisphere. Outside major cities like Tegucigalpa or San Pedro Sula, the extent of poverty is evident as most families scrape by on less than $3 a day. According to the United Nations, 61% of the population in Honduras lives in extreme poverty. Full Article
Film Review: ‘Love in the Time of Cholera’
Todd Ellertson
Honduras This Week
Photo: www.google.com
Javier Bardem plays Florentino Ariza in "Love in the Time of Cholera."
Film adaptations of memorable, widely-acclaimed novels can be a tricky undertaking, even by the most gifted film makers. Many times, fans of the book come away from the film equivalent disappointed in the translation. It may be because a complicated plot wasn’t fully realized in the film; maybe the actor playing one of the key roles isn’t who the audience envisioned when they read the book. Successful film adaptations in recent years include the wildly popular J.R. Tolkien-adapted “Lord of the Rings” movies, which grossed hundreds of millions of dollars worldwide and went on to win important film awards, including a Best Picture Oscar. It is generally believed that hard-core J.R. Tolkien fans were happy with the resulting translations from book to film. Full Article

THE BLUE PARROT
 A usually reputable, reliable source tells us that the Blue Parrot restaurant, located just before Lawson Rock coming from Coxen Hole is expanding. Why? The original Rick is opening up there! What a treat, the number one restaurant on the island will have an even more convenient location. We will check it out - tough job but someone’s gotta to do it. Not sure if this site will replace the West End place or not, but we’ll ask. By Don Pearl
Miguel Nolasco: A different kind of presidential candidate
Alvaro Morales Molina
Honduras This Week
“In Honduras, the first kind of poverty is psychological; the second one is psychological and guess what? The third one is mental, too,” says Miguel Nolasco, deep-voiced, tall, with an abundant, bushy moustache. With a big smile and even bigger aspirations, he considers himself a novice politician and has decided to run for the next president of Honduras. Full Article
