			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://jamaicaviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Tiger-Woods.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-2982" title="Tiger Woods" src="http://jamaicaviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Tiger-Woods.jpg" alt="" width="120" height="83" /></a>The drama of Tiger Woods has almost climax .The script as it has read like many other black athletes before him. They do very well in the athletic area of their choice, made many sacrifices, lots of money and lots of friends.<span id="more-2979"></span>One would say that they achieve the goal that many black people only dream of the money, the big house ,many cars and of course the trophy of marrying a white woman. Many people might not admit that this is the case but most blacks will not hesitate to agree that this is the norm for many black athletes.<br />
I am glad that this chapter of Tiger Woods life is complete my only disappointment is that the divorce judge did not give 90% of Tigers asset to his wife and her children, in that way his slate would be clean for a fresh start and she would be set financially for the rest of her life.<br />
One might say why I come to such conclusion but as I say Tiger would be at a place where he would have to do some gut searching and review his life and what he really wants out of life. What is the legacy that he would like to be remembered for? I hope he is the one who will break the cycle and not end up like OJ Simpson who after being on top of his game where most desire to be ended up being just another black man locked away.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mr. Golding if by chance you care one bit about Jamaica then sir please I am begging you to resign. This matter has already done too much damage for every Jamaicans as it relates to the children and what they went through during the state of emergency, the exchange of bullets and the death of more than 70 Jamaicans, the fear that they went through when they had to take their exams inspite of gunshot ringing around them. We also have a decrease in <span id="more-2956"></span>tourist visiting our beautiful Island due to the negative media coverage all over the world. Mr. Golding you sir and your confidants Mr. Leys, Mrs. Lightbourne have badly damage our country’s reputation which will take a very long time to repair.</p>
<p>I have a gut feeling that this was not over after the apology or after the USA had Dudus and I prayed that this was the end of it although I knew better seeing that Dudus has not yet testify and that someone will again bring up the apology by Mr. Golding that he sanctioned the MPP as the leader of the JLP. That did not make any logical sense but I like many Jamaicans went along with it even though we know better.</p>
<p>I know as a nurse I cannot after an incident say I worked in the capacity of a nurse assistant because that is a no, no. I have to work and act in my highest professional capacity. Therefore if Mr. Golding is the Prime minister of Jamaica representing all Jamaican (weather you voted for him or not) he should be working and making decisions for the interest of all Jamaicans and Jamaica. He is being paid as the Prime minister of Jamaica and not as the head of the JLP so that lame excuse that he has sanctioned MPP as the leader of the JLP he knew that was a sham.</p>
<p>Mr. Golding need to do the right thing since the issues surface and for the first do what is best for Jamaicans, Jamaica and the Caricom and simply step aside. We cannot sit any longer while the country sinks deeper and deeper into integrity and economic shame. Mr. Golding please sir, I am begging you to step aside while we still have a chance to resuscitate the county from strangulation. I thank you in advance.</p>

The issue at hand is whether the Prime Minster in his capacity as government of Jamaica hired American law firm Manatt, Phelps &amp; Phillips to assist alleged drug and gun smuggler Christopher &#8216;Dudus&#8217; Coke avoid extradition to the US. The PM and has long insisted that any arrangement between himself and Manatt, Phelps &amp; Phillips was conducted on behalf of the Jamaica Labor Party and not the Jamaican Government.</p>
<p>Recent emails transcript provided by the Jamaica Gleaner has refuted argument by the Bruce Golding government that members of the government did not engage Manatt, Phelps &amp; Phillips in discussions on extradition matters. There are so much inconsistencies, innuendos, and deceptions in the whole sags that people are calling on members of the government including the Prime Minister himself to resign.</p>

<p>Recent email transcript reveals that the government knew more than they previously admitted in the Manatt, Phelps Phillips Dudus drama. The PNP is also asking for a commission of inquiry into the whole affair.</p>
<p>The drama refuses to die out but only time will tell if it has any effect on the political life of all those who are involved.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was disappoint during my last visit as I tried to find some Jamaican candy I have been to many wholesales and shops and I haven’t come across any. I wanted to get some ginger ale, Icy mint and epically some busta (stag aback) because I wanted to give some to a Trinidadian co worker who had brought a similar candy from Trinidad and shared with us. <span id="more-2938"></span></p>
<p>I was not pleased especially when I stopped at a super market at a plaza by Angels and had the feeling for grater cake. I could not believe when I didn’t come across any, but I could purchase any amount of foreign candy and chocolate my heart desire. Such a pity many of the children growing up will not know or experience eating candies made in Jamaica.</p>
<p>The sad thing about the way we do thing in Jamaica is that we quickly embrace things from other countries and make them accessible for all to consume or use and there is nothing wrong with that. But in the same breath we need to promote what we make and grow.</p>
<p> This is the Good thing that the present Prime Minister Mr. Bruce Golding is now doing as the slogan goes “eat what you grow and grow what you eat,” but can you imagine what a country Jamaica be if we had jumped on the band wagon when Mr. Michael Manley had tried to promote that concept of farming and agriculture? Think about it.</p>
<p>We as a country need to access and continuing building on what the previous government had started and not tear down only to revisit the idea abundant at a later date and realized that indeed it was a good idea. We as a country has grown we are almost 50 year old we need to start acting responsible and stop the game playing and do the right things. We need to produce and set up systems to monitor and control our products. We also need to be proud of what we produce and grow and make them accessible to Jamaicans as well as touris</p>
