At the Colombian border, an official was unimpressed with our letters of introduction. He didn't care that the Tourism Minister in Honduras saw our record attempt as a good thing for people considering a visit to Tegucigalpa, its capital city. A cute picture of my then three-year-old daughter, Lucy, strategically placed beside the insurance papers, didn't faze him either. He insisted we empty the contents of the Sierra to prove we were not carrying contraband or prohibited goods into his country.

My first adventure off the Pico Bonito Lodge property was a day of snorkelling at Chachahuate Key, part of 13 small islands that make up Cayos Cochinos. When I first saw the boat in which we'd travel to an island, I actually thought this was a practical joke. The Caribbean Sea was quite rough, the skies grey with the impending threat of rain. I believe my exact words were, "You gotta be kidding, right?" As I apprehensively signed away my life on a disclaimer form, my stomach heaved with trepidation. Our craft was nothing more than a small fishing boat. But hey, I was not going to be the one to bail out. I apparently had something to prove, although what and to whom, I don't know. Being unceremoniously hoisted over the side of the rocking boat, I immediately knew I should've listened to...

Perspectives on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), Mining, and Sustainable Development Taking Harper's and the World Bank's positions together as representative of the current dominant view of the role of foreign direct investment in mining in Latin America, we must ask under what conditions mining activity might contribute to poverty alleviation and sustainable development. Harper points to the world-class corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives of Canadian mining companies, along with the Canadian government's National Roundtable report on CSR and the Extractive Sector in Developing Nations (Interview, 2007) and the World Bank's Extractive Industries Review (EIR) points to the enabling conditions of "pro-poor public and corporate governance," "effective social and envir...

Joseph Hardcastle, born in England in 1827, is probably best known for being one of only three individuals to pass the first Certified Public Accountant (CPA) exam in New York in 1896. Remarkably, he was just four months shy of his seventieth birthday and received the highest score of those that passed the exam Hardcastle was a regular contributor to various early journals about accounting in the US, and he became one of the foremost authorities of his time on the theory of accounting. Through an analysis of his articles, the goal of this paper is to reconstruct his theories and contributions to accounting thought and history, and to discuss these theories of accounting as related to the "science of accounts" that dominated accounting thought in the late 19th century US.

The Los Angeles Times editorial said that the Obama administration should Stop waffling on Honduras (Nov. 9). In the name of avoiding "a setback for democracy" Honduras is supposed to reinstate deposed President [Zelaya]. Both the U.S. and Honduran governments are accused of dithering. In fact, Zelaya's ouster last summer was entirely democratic. Zelaya had pursued -- in contravention of the constitution of Honduras -- the elimination of strict term limits. The constitution's Article 4 provides that any "infraction" of the succession rules constitutes treason. The Supreme Court of Honduras had Zelaya removed when he illegally imported an "opinion survey" which amounted to a push poll to convene a Constitutional Convention. Zelaya's attempts to change the constitutional term limits had b...
