| Letter to The Gleaner RE: Jamaica a Hurting Nation |
|
| Thanks for Dr. Karen Richards' piece (Sunday, February 08, 2009) on Jamaica Drowning in a Sea of its Own Violence, diagnosing us with Borderline Personality Disorder (DPT) to explain why Jamaica has the highest murder rate in the world (64 per 100,000). Kingston is convulsing with disorder and collapsing under the weight of crime. read more... |

| The Coyaba beach resort in Jamaica |
|
| Images of Jamaica are often associated with serenity and beauty, and after a recent trip, I can rightly justify those images that are conjured from thoughts of an "irie" feeling. Along the hills and the rolling beaches is a quaint, yet luxurious, resort that caters to the locals and the tourists: the Coyaba Resort. read more... |

| ALL WE NEED IS LOVE SO CAN YOU REALLY FINDE TRUE LOVE ! |
|
Thanks God with the technology, communication has become very easy especially internet usage. Many people are seeking friends through the internet & chat rooms. My question is is it really possible to find true love in chat rooms? What things do a person has to look for and what does he/she need to avoid? How will you be sure that the person on the other side really loves us and he/she is not just using you to past his/her time? read more... |

| Human Feelings & Universal Truths: The Timelessness Of Bob Marley?s Exodus |
|
| It had been at least a couple of years since I played Exodus, the seminal Bob Marley and The Wailers reggae album. There was about a foot of snow on the ground and it was a most un-tropical four below zero outside the mountain retreat, but 01aaa_bob_exoduscover.jpgthe coal stove was chug chugging away and the DF&C and I were plenty cozy as the living room filled with the first notes of Natural Mystic, the album's opening track. read more... |
