This Week’s Feature Story

Old Story Time – Jamaican Drama Plays Out at HLSCC Don’t miss this weekend’s theatrical treat at HLSCC, the University of the Virgin Islands’ production of Old Story Time, a play written by Trevor D. Rhone and directed by David Edgecombe. Showtimes are Friday and Saturday at 8pm and Sunday at 4pm and the production is a tribute to the author’s outstanding contribution to Caribbean theatre.

The play is a Jamaican tale about Len Tomlinson (Noel Charles), his mother Miss Aggie (Heather Hogarth Smith), his wife Lois (Jamilya Christopher), and his adversary George (Joshua Jno-Pierre). Pa Ben (George Silcott, Jr.) is the skilful storyteller who works hard to broker peace and advocates love and understand above all else.

Miss Aggie is a salt-of-the-earth Caribbean woman “from country” who has nothing but the highest of ambitions for her son Len. She pushes him to study hard and encourages him to marry Margaret (Asheda Maccow). However, when she catches Len frolicking at the river with his childhood playmate, Pearle (Carlla Morris), she gives him a good beating.

Later, as an Economics student in England, Len marries Lois, the pretty black woman he fell in love

with before leaving Jamaica, which does not please his “mama.”

On his return to Jamaica with Lois, Len must confront his old enemy George, who brutally ill-treated him Scene from Old Story Time throughout high school with the help of Margaret, who is now married to George.

Len discovers that George amassed a fortune through unscrupulous development schemes, and soon learns that the crooked banker also robbed his “mama” of her life savings. He assembles the evidence that could see George, and perhaps even Margaret in jail.

However, Len learns quickly that he will have to fight “mama” before he can carry out his “moral right to rid society” of “a scum” like George. And “mama’s” weapon of choice is “Obeah!”

Tickets are $20 each. For ticketing and other information call Linette Baa on 852-7223.

Ask Koren Daughter not meeting expectations

Your personal E-therapist is in the house!

Ask Koren

Dear Koren, I am having two issues with my 16 year old daughter. First of all, we are already in January and she does not seem to be taking her CXC studying seriously and she is taking eight subjects. Secondly, she is saying she wants to follow in my footsteps and be a nurse, but I know that nursing is really hard work with not much pay. How do I motivate her with the first issue and discourage her with the second?

notes and textbooks – this way, she does not feel intense pressure and information will stick in her mind. While you want the best for her, it is early and she can build up momentum slowly, rather than cramming and then she crashes and burns. Try to be supportive, rather than nagging and help her to utilize her strengths to achieve success.

As it relates to her choice of career, nursing is an essential service. The benefits might not be all monetary, but your daughter might get a sense of satisfaction from knowing that she is making a difference in people’s lives. Also, if she chooses to go overseas, nurses are paid a lot more and their services are quite valuable.

Obviously, you have represented the career well, which would have had some influence on her. Instead of discouraging her against choosing nursing, it would be a better idea to explain to her the pros and cons of being in the profession and help her to make a good decision.

–Concerned and Distressed Mother Dear Concerned and Distressed Mother, I can understand your concerns, but do not be distressed. Look at the positives here: Your daughter has made it to her final year of school when many students have dropped out or became pregnant, she is ambitious, she talks to you about her goals, and she admires you enough to want to follow in your footsteps. All in all, I would say that you have a lot to be thankful for.

Sometimes we start our kids off in school early and they go from day care right up to high school so by the time they get to 5th form they might be tired. If she has just finished preparing her SBA’s, her brain must really need a break. So try to see things from her viewpoint.

Try motivating her and encourage her to read her

Education on the Go! Recently, I was over on Anegada with friends to spend a few days visiting and just limin’ in general. On day two, we spent some time at Loblolly at the Big Bamboo – a favorite watering hole (both for the swimming and the libations). Whilst we were there, we encountered a blaze of brightly colored tee-shirts and a cacophony of voices to rival the sound of the waves.

We discovered that this was a group of ninety-one, Class Four (Grade Five) students from Althea Scatliffe

Midnight in Paris rather be back in California.

Gil’s trip back in time to an era he loves, starts to colour his vision of the perfect life. He suggests to Inez they get married and move to Paris where he can get his creative juices flowing. She thinks he’s nuts. When Gil meets Pablo Picasso and falls for his beguiling mistress Adriana (Marion Cotillard), things start getting complicated.

The film, acclaimed as one of Woody Allen’s Imagine being an aspiring novelist who loves jazz

best, demonstrates what happens when people

warp and comes face to face with F. Scott Fitzgerald, Josephine Baker and Ernest Hemingway!

Well that’s what happens to Gil, a successful Hollywood screenwriter, who accompanies his fiancée Inez and her parents on a business trip to Paris. Her father dislikes the French but can’t resist a deal.

Things start off well, with the usual sightseeing trips, but the situation deteriorates when they bump into a know-it-all friend of Inez who’s an expert on everything and insists on showing them round. Inez (Rachel McAdams) is fascinated, while Gil prefers to wander the streets of Paris on his own, soaking up the atmosphere.

Written and directed by Woody Allen, Midnight in Paris stars Owen Wilson as Gil and features some excellent footage of the world’s most romantic city in all its phases – bright and sunny or pouring with rain – it never loses its charm – except for Inez who’d Limin’ Times Entertainment Guide

A Track Season of Great Promise When the 2012 Track and Field season opened on Saturday with the Gatorade Development Series, athletes showed that they were raring to go. It was the start of a season like we have never seen before — a season of great promise.

Just 17 days earlier, athletes had collected awards during the 3rd BVI Athletics Association Athletes Awards Recognition Gala and it didn’t take long for them to set the tone for the season.

First, joint Sol BVI Youth Female Athlete of the Year and 2011 Carifta Games 100m bronze medalist Nelda Huggins, blasted her speciality in under 12 seconds. Then her award counterpart, Tarika “Tinker Bell” Moses, flirted with the 800m National Youth Record with the fastest hand time ever recorded by an Under 18s athlete.

Shortly there after, Lakeisha “Mimi” Warner, the BVI Athletics Association’s 2011 Most Improved Female Athlete of The Year, bested 800m Sr. National Record holder Samantha John during her first race back in the 400m, getting to the line in 58.30 seconds.

While the girls have been shining since 2005, it was good to see the boys not being outdone. J’Maal Alexander sprinted under 10.8 seconds in the 100m and Shaquoy Stephens repelled the 2011 Colonial Comeback Athlete of The Year, Deshawn “Fast Man” Douglas in the 400m, with a 50.26 time.

All of the above mentioned were at last year’s Carifta Games and they’ve again put their names to the selectors as candidates for this year’s trip to the games in Bermuda in early April.

“Compared to previous years, I think today we started off with a big bang,” Meet Director Dag Samuels declared after Saturday’s meet.

Tarika "Tinker Bell" Moses, takes of in the 800m

“We had several performances that we have to take note of although all the running events were hand timed. We had some really fast times in the 800m, where Tarika Moses ran 2 minutes and 19 seconds hand time; Nelda ran under 12 seconds and boys under 11 and we had a low 50 seconds in the 400m. All in all, I think we had a good beginning for our development series.”

Samuels said that from what was seen in the season opener, by the fourth race in the Gatorade Development Series, there’ll be good things coming.

“By that time, everybody will be into their own events and we should see some fantastic performances, both on the field and on the track,” he stated.

As its an Olympic year, our eyes will be on Chantel Malone, Ashley Kelly and Karene King in particular, all of whom will try to join Tahesia HarriganScott in London, when the Games open on July 27.

The Olympic hopefuls began their indoor season over the weekend, but it will not be until they get outdoors in their regular events, that they’ll be looking at qualifying marks.

We’ll monitor as the season progresses, as they have until July 8th to hit the London qualifying standards.
