Gospel Fest Brings Local and International Line-up

This Week’s Feature Story

will be added by Isabel Valdez of Santo Domingo.

Positive of Trinidad will also be singing his gospel reg-

gae music and Judith Gayle of Jamaica will be perfo -

rming songs from her latest Gospel album, I Believe.

Local artists performing are Joy Praise and the New

Baptist Church Choir.

Later in the festival schedule, Rev. Dr. H. Beecher

Hicks Jr., who is known as a “Preacher’s Preacher”

from Washington DC, will be the Guest Speaker at

both the Emancipation Service at 4pm on Sunday,

August 5th at the Sunday Morning Well and at the

Sunrise Service at 7am on Monday, August 6th at the

Administration Complex.

So, the scene is set and the fes-

tival grounds are taking shape

already with the lights, booths, the

main stage and Coney Island all

being installed – you can almost

smell the popcorn! For most people,

this is a time to celebrate freedom,

embrace our culture and come

together as a people. So enjoy your-

self and have a safe and fun time

this festival season.

With Festival Village opening at the end of next

week, the scene is being set for an impressive 58th

Anniversary of the Emancipation Festival. One of the

key themes is, “Emancipation: A Golden Story to Tell”

and at this time of year it is particularly important to

remember that festival in the BVI is about fun. It’s a

wonderful time for family, friends, food and partying -

however there is also a strong spiritual element that

goes hand in hand with the festival and is intrinsic to

the whole event.

With this in mind, it is fitting that this year, the

Gospel Fest is the first event to be held at the festival

grounds. So, be there at 7:30pm next

Thursday, 26th July to experience a

line-up of artists from home as well as

from the wider Caribbean region.

Rev. Dr. M.A. Turnbull, Chairman of

the V.I. Heritage Month Committee

said, “2012 marks our 15th year of co-

ordinating the spiritual aspect of our

Emancipation Celebrations and we are

very excited about this year’s line-up.”

He went on to say that for the first

time at the Gospel Fest, Latino flavor Joel Murray a.k.a. Positive

Send your questions confidentially [email protected] or via twitter at @korennorton

I am dating a woman who recently came out of a

ten year relationship. My problem is that this woman

is still very close to her ex-boyfriend and they speak

on the phone daily and still see each other some-

times. She claims there is no intimacy between them,

but is it unreasonable for me to expect that they make

a clean break?

Disgruntled man

Dear DM,

I understand where you are coming from. He had

his turn, in fact he had ten years of turns and if they

are over, then they should be over, right? Life is not

always as straightforward as that. What will make this

situation work is you hearing and seeing that she is

committed to you only and her not feeling pressured

to give up what might be a good friendship.

Your girlfriend should have some boundaries

between her and her ex, so that their interaction does

not give him the impression that he still has a chance

of being with her and so it is clear who she is really

with. Also, the fact that she recently came out of the

relationship makes me wonder: why are you dating so

soon? Do you think she had enough time to get over

her ex boyfriend?

I suggest you state your concerns and give her

some time to remedy the situation. An adult woman

should know what would make her partner uncom-

fortable, especially if she were to put herself in your

shoes. Talking daily is definitely too much. I don’t

think you need to be nagging her about how close she

is with someone else; she should know where her

obligations lie and act accordingly.

What about you? You need to check yourself also.

Are you doing your part as a man and trying to meet

her expectations? If you lapse in certain areas, then it

could be easy for her to substitute someone else to fill

the role that you should be playing. You don’t want

your woman crying to another man saying, “he does

not listen to me”, “he is never home”, or anything of

that nature.

So state your case, allow her to be mature enough

to do what is right and ensure that you are doing your

part, so there is no excuse for her to step out on you.

The Perfect Walk

As frustrating as it is to park in Road Town these

days, I’ve come up with the ideal solution: park on the

outskirts of town and walk. This is my new exercise

regimen; it saves gym fees and eliminates the pain of

aerobics. It avoids knee injuries incurred when jog-

ging, decreases the stress of returning to my car to

find an SUV parked behind it, and the frustration of

snaking through Road Town behind an a interminable

line of cars – also looking for that perfect space.

So, now I just walk. I scout for the parking space

as far from my destination as possible, a place so

remote that there is no need to block my car. The ben-

efits to walking are endless. Even the Mayo Clinic says

so. “It is a gentle, low impact exercise that can ease

you into a higher level of fitness and health,” they say.

“It’s safe, simple” and here’s the part I like best, “it

doesn’t require practice.” Practice (or lack of it) is one

reason why I never excelled at most sports.

Fortunately, I am great at walking. Walking lowers bad

cholesterol (LDL) and raises the good one (HDL). It

reduces blood pressure and the risk of type 2 dia-

betes. Walking helps manage weight, improves one’s

mood and keeps you strong and fit.

Besides walking in town, I also walk along Long

Bay Beach at West End. This stretch of white sand bor-

dered by a palm grove on one side and silvery blue

sea on the other inspires me with its beauty, especial-

ly when I walk in late afternoon as the sun sets. I’m not

the only one on Long Bay at this time of day and my

pace is often slowed down by chats with acquaintanc-

es or the occasional hotel guest. But this also is good

since fostering social relationships is beneficial for

both mental well-being and good health.

When it comes to walking, the Mayo Clinic recom-

mends setting a realistic goal. Although more would

be better, 30 minutes, five days a week is acceptable

for most people. They suggest making it fun and vary-

ing the routine. This is easy to accomplish in the BVI,

where almost every walk, whether it’s on Long Bay or

Sage Mountain, is a visual feast. And in the week, I’ll

continue to walk around Road Town, reaping the ben-

efits while decreasing the stress.

Out of AfricaBy Jan Critchley

If you are looking for a good classic romantic

drama, then this is a film that rainy, Sunday after-

noons are made for. Directed and produced by

Sydney Pollack, the film was released in 1985 and

won a staggering 28 film awards including seven

Academy Awards.

The story begins in 1913 in Denmark, when Karen

Dinesen (Meryl Streep) asks her friend Baron Bror

Blixen (Klaus Maria Brandauer) to enter into a mar-

riage of convenience with her and the two plan to

move to Africa and open a dairy farm.

Upon her arrival, Karen marries Bror in a brief cer-

emony, thus becoming Baroness Blixen. She meets

and befriends various other colonial residents, and

she also meets Denys Finch Hatton (Robert Redford),

a local big-game hunter with whom she develops a

close friendship.

Bror decides to invest in a coffee plantation,

instead of the dairy farm that was first intended but

he shows little interest, preferring instead to become

a game hunter. Karen is distressed when she learns of

his extramarital affairs and to make matters worse,

she contracts syphilis from her philandering husband

and is forced to return to Denmark for a long and dif-

ficult period of treatment.

After she has recovered and returns to Africa, it

becomes clear that her marriage to the womanizing

Bror is over and she asks him to move out of their

house. Her friendship with Denys develops further

and the two eventually become lovers during an

unbelievably romantic safari trip. However, despite

many unsuccessful attempts to turn their affair into a

Cast & CreditsMeryl Streep ------------------------------- KarenRobert Redford----------------------------- DenysKlaus Maria Brandauer----------------------- BrorMichael Kitchen ------------------------- BerkeleyMalick Bowens ----------------------------- Farah

lasting relationship, she realizes that Denys is as

impossible to own or tame as Africa itself. Although he

moves into her house, he does not understand her

desire to “own” things and refuses to commit to mar-

riage telling her that he will not love her more because

of a piece of paper.

So Karen throws herself into opening a school for

the local children and running the plantation and

although it finally yields a good harvest, a devastating

fire breaks out and the entire crop is destroyed. Now

broke and alone again, Karen prepares to leave Africa

to return home to Denmark, however, Denys visits her

and the two of them have one last dance. It is clear

that the love between them is still strong, but will she

be strong enough to survive what lies ahead?

By Dean “The Sportsman” Greenaway in London

In another eight days, the London 2012 Olympic

Games – the quadrennial sporting spectacle – opens

with billions globally tuned into the opening cere-

monies.

Frenchman and modern Olympic Games founder

Pierre de Coubertin, said the essence of the Games

isn’t about winning medals, but taking part. Except for

the inaugural venture in 1984, never over the last 28

years has there been such a level of community con-

sciousness about the Olympic Games. In an era of

tougher qualifying standards, with a 2000 track and

field athletes quota, you have to earn your spot to be

among the world’s best athletes from the 204 nations

who can field competitors in the quadrennial event.

You’ve dedicated an awful lot of time and energy,

made lots of sacrifice, go through physical and emo-

tional training and concentrated effort to get to the

Olympic Games. Then you come up short. Ah, the

Olympic dream!

Two years out, there was the possibility of six BVI

athletes in two sports – athletics and sailing the only

two ever to field athletes in the Olympic Games – hav-

ing participants. In pursuing their Olympic dreams, a

variety of things can happen, among them injuries or

realizing that making the weight in a class would be

impossible.

But for a country of 30,000 inhabitants to have

four athletes with their Olympic dream alive 19 days

before the opening ceremony, with performances

ranging from thirteen to thirty seven hundreds of a

second from qualifying, is remarkable.

Along the way, there was the historic element in

the balance – that the delegation could be comprised

of all women which would have been a first.

Regulations however, gives equal opportunities to

the sexes to be part of the Olympic Games from any

country that has an Olympic Committee.

In our case, we had one female qualifier with four

other hopefuls. Therefore, one unqualified male was

eligible to participate in a running event except the

Marathon – but would have to qualify if they were in a

field event – Discus, Shot Put or Javelin for example.

The same holds true if men were the qualifiers, one

unqualified female was eligible to participate.

At 2 p.m. on Tuesday in the Olympic Games Village,

athletes Tahesia Harrigan-Scott and J’Maal Alexander

along with other officials of the BVI delegation, per-

sonnel from the BVI London Office, Hertsfordshire

County and the City of Aston, were on hand for the

team welcoming and flag raising ceremony.

On Aug 3 and 4 respectively, Alexander and
