One dead, one critical in San Pedro murder/suicide attempt
San Pedro police are investigating a shooting incident that has left one resident dead and another seriously injured. Authorities are still not sure how the case will be treated because just what led up to the drama is shrouded in mystery. According to reports, around midday sixty-six year old William Douglas Campbell, a U.S. citizen, shot his caretaker: thirty-nine year old Danielo Villatoro. Campbell then allegedly turned the gun on himself and pulled the trigger. More
8th Bank Inaugurated
The San Pedro branch opening of the First Caribbean International Bank took place this weekend on Sunday, January 28, 2006 making San Pedro one of the only communities to boast of having a branch of every banking business established in this country. There are much bigger towns and communities in Belize that are much larger in size and population than San Pedro, but our island community can now be proud to boast of this. More
O.A.S. helps ease tensions at
Guatemalan border
Thanks to a well oiled O.A.S. publicity machine and unprecedented cooperation between the Belizean and Guatemalan military forces, there has been no shortage of press reports on the latest round of "confidence building measures" at the border. But beyond the hype, those measures are not only building confidence but also helping solve some very real problems that continue to plague the frontier. More
Schoolchildren Get
Free Dental Checkup
More than one hundred San Pedro children were given the wonderful opportunity to have a healthier smile this past week during a free dental hygiene clinic conducted by a team of dentists, dental hygienists, and assistants at the San Pedro Polyclinic II. The medical team from Minnesota, U.S.A., led by Dr. Mark Johnson, provided dental services to schoolchildren from the New Horizons Seventh Day Adventist School last week Wednesday, with many more treated from other area schools this week.

Free programs offered to youths
Last Saturday, January 28th, an open house was held for San Pedro youths, giving them the opportunity to enroll in a new arts program that will be launched on the island. Youths between the ages of 7 to 21 years of age may still choose from a long list of fun subjects in the arts in order to keep themselves proactive with their spare time. More
Regional fund for July launch
There is much optimism for the launch by July of a Regional Development Fund (RDF) with a minimum US$50 million, most of it coming from the government of Trinidad and Tobago.
That optimistic note has been signalled by more than one Prime Minister of the Eastern Caribbean following the special meeting of the Community's Finance Ministers last Tuesday in Kingston, Jamaica. More
Student thinks locally, acts globally
Ilana Pearlman found a new twist to put on an old adage, and found that it works."They say 'Think globally, act locally,' but I don't believe that since I got home," she said. "I think it should be reversed: think locally, act globally. Start with environmental awareness. It serves the world better to know the land in (people's) own countries, and bring that to everything else. It makes more of an impact."Shortly after Christmas, Pearlman got home from the place and experiences that got her started on thinking that way: Belize, where she spent more than six months in an environmental program with The Cornerstone Foundation. She taught organic farming to children. More
