Me sorprendió la costumbre, que había de las misas de aguinaldo o de aguinaldos, como allí se decía, a partir del día 16 de diciembre, antes del amanecer. Acudían muchos fieles, algunos con caminatas de más de 8 km. Lo hacían muy contentos, en grupos, cantando villancicos o “aguinaldos”.

Chaplain Stories & News
Chaplain Stories & News Building Bridges—Parishes, Pastors, Prisons January 12, 2017 — Bishop Myron Cotta, Diocese of Sacramento, (at right in photo) took another important step to building a more effective and robust ministry to the incarcerated on Thursday, January 12. He had invited the seven State Prison Chaplains to meet with the pastors and key lay men and women from the parishes closest to the prisons. The meeting was facilitated by Deacon Clyde Davis, a former Prison Chaplain. Clyde has been hired by the California Bishops’ Conference to provide a range of supports for Catholic Chaplains throughout the state. During the meeting, Deacon Clyde said that one of the major problems faced by Prison Chaplains is a sense of isolation and a lack of support from the local parishes. The Sacramento Diocese and Bishop Cotta is seeking to build bridges from local parishes to the Chaplains and the prisons. He asked that each parish assign a “Prison Champion” to serve as a consistent connecting point between the parish and the chaplain. Many creative ideas were shared about how the parishes and the nearby prisons would both benefit from a closer relationship. Chaplin Smolinisky Reflects on a Tamale Christmas at Pelican Bay December 2016 — The first time I did a Christmas celebration with tamales and champurrado in jail or a prison setting, I was a volunteer at Mira Loma, an immigration detention center for Homeland Security. Imelda, another volunteer, brought tamales and champurrado. I thought this was a crazy idea at first, and I saw the hesitation of the Sherriff. When I came to Pelican Bay State Prison, I remember the interview question from the panel, “What makes men attracted to come to your services?” I responded, “Food! Jesus Christ teaches us to gather and eat and drink and when you do this, He is there.” “I haven’t had a homemade tamale in 25 years,” said Jose who had been in the SHU, or isolation unit, for almost two decades.

Soup at the Distinguished Table in Mexico City, 1830-1920
SOUP AT THE DISTINGUISHED TABLE IN MEXICO CITY, 1830-1920 Nanosh Lucas A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2017 Committee: Amílcar Challú, Committee Co-Chair Franciso Cabanillas, Committee Co-Chair Amy Robinson Timothy Messer-Kruse © 2017 Nanosh Jacob Isadore Joshua Lucas All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Amílcar Challú, Committee Co-Chair Francisco Cabanillas, Committee Co-Chair This thesis uses soup discourse as a vehicle to explore dimensions of class and hierarchies of taste in Mexican cookbooks and newspapers from 1830-1920. It contrasts soups with classic European roots, such as sopa de pan (bread soup), with New World soups, such as sopa de tortilla (tortilla soup) and chilaquiles (toasted tortillas in a soupy sauce made from chiles). I adopt a multi-disciplinary approach, combining quantitative methods in the digital humanities with qualitative techniques in history and literature. To produce this analysis, I draw from Pierre Bourdieu’s work on distinction and social capital, Max Weber’s ideas about modernization and rationalization, and Charles Tilly’s notions of categorical inequality. Results demonstrate that soup plays a part in a complex drama of inclusion and exclusion as people socially construct themselves in print and culinary practice. Elites attempted to define respectable soups by what ingredients they used, and how they prepared, served, and consumed soup. Yet, at the same time, certain soups seemed to defy hierarchical categorization, and that is where this story begins. iv To Lisa and Isadora Lucas. Thank you for your sacrifices.

Con sabor a patrimonio Crónica entre fotografías de espacios públicos y privados de la cocina venezolana Brenda Iglesias S. Lic. en Letras, Mención Historia del Arte Ms. Teoría y Crítica de la Arquitectura Universidad de Los Andes. Mérida Venezuela [email protected] RESUMEN Frente al discurso de la negación de la pluralidad cultural y de su herencia como patrimonio, invitamos al lector a través de este ensayo, a la refl exión sobre la relación entre ciudad, cultura urbana, gastronomía, historia y subjetividad, como lugares para la expresión de la identidad venezolana. Ésta combinación de ingredientes sociales, tal cual receta de la abuela, nos permiten enriquecer el imaginario de esa conexión nuestra con lo que somos, con nuestra memoria, con nuestras costumbres; y a su vez, tomar conciencia de que, aún en medio de la ciudad, en el café de la esquina o en el almuerzo familiar, donde accionamos los clicks de las cámaras fotográfi cas para luego revelarlos en nuestro álbum personal, allí frente a la mesa, emerge ese sujeto venezolano protagonista de lo nacional. Palabras claves: Patrimonio, Gastronomía, Identidad, Fotografía, Cultura Urbana. WITH HERITAGE FLAVOR CHRONICLE BETWEEN PHOTOGRAPHS OF PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SPACES OF VENEZUELAN CUISINE ABSTRACT Against the discourse of cultural plurality denial and its heritage as patrimony, through this essay we invite the reader to refl ect on the relationship between city, urban culture, cuisine, history and subjectivity, as sites for Vene- zuelan identity expression.

Northern Ghana, Food Safety, Street Food Vendors, Rural
Food and Public Health 2014, 4(3): 99-103 DOI: 10.5923/j.fph.20140403.05 Food Safety Knowledge and Practice of Street Food Vendors in Rural Northern Ghana Stephen Apanga1,*, Jerome Addah1, Danso Raymond Sey2 1Department of Community Health and Family Medicine, School of Medicine and Health Sciences, University for Development Studies, P. O. Box 1883, Tamale Ghana 2Tamale Teaching Hospital, Tamale Ghana Abstract Food safety amongst street food vendors is becoming a major public concern especially in urban areas of the developing world where this industry is expanding rapidly. There is rarely any information on street food safety issues in rural northern Ghana where this industry is equally growing rapidly. We therefore conducted this study to assess the knowledge level and evaluate food safety and hygiene practices amongst street food vendors in a rural district of northern Ghana. A cross sectional study was carried out in the Nadowli district where 200 street food vendors were randomly selected from of both densely and none densely populated areas of food vendors. Knowledge level amongst vendors concerning food safety practices was 100%. Although over 96% washed their hands after some major activities, about 13% of them did not use soap. The main storage forms of leftover foods were consumption by friends and family members (13%), reheating (13%) and refrigeration (11.5%). Water storage containers were also found to be used for other activities. 71% of the vendors had undergone medical screening despite a high knowledge level (100%) of its importance. Street food vendors in this rural northern setting generally have a high knowledge level on food safety issues but however do not translate this knowledge into practice.
