Odds and ends

  • “We felt citizens of the world” – Yoani Sanchez on the Juanes concert, in Poder360 magazine.

  • AP: Santiago Alvarez was released from jail after serving time for refusing to testify in the case of Luis Posada Carriles, and El Nuevo Herald has an affectionate photo essay of his return home.

    "Santiago Alvarez was released from jail after serving time for refusing to testify in the case of Luis Posada Carriles, and El Nuevo Herald has an affectionate photo essay of his return home." El Nuevo Herald has an even more affectionate set of articles including interviews of Hubert Matos. Is the emphasis on Sr.Alvarez because Comandante Matos is considered harmless? (BTW Granma published some stories about the Matos affaire today.)

    so, Joe Garcia got approved for some backwater office at the Department of Energy that no one has ever heard of? In more important news, Soupy Sales died.
