Wine and Art at MyettsThis Week’s Feature Story by Jan Critchley

For those who appreciate good art, food, wine,

arts and crafts, plus home grown produce (and who

doesn’t?) then don’t miss Myett’s monthly Wine and

Art Festival and Farmers Market to be held this

Sunday, August 31st at the popular Cane Garden Bay

restaurant. Starting at 1pm and going on until 5, the

event will feature artwork by some of the islands’

most talented artists and craftsmen.

The festival, which takes place in Myett’s shady

garden, has been well-attended, says Val Rhymer, co-

owner of Myett’s with her husband Kareem. “We

think this is going to be a very popular event for peo-

ple who live here and visitors alike…The farmers sell

fresh mangos, bananas, papaya, lettuce, tomatoes,

peppers, cucumbers and sugarcane, and the artists

bring handmade crafts and amazing local paintings,

prints, homemade pillows and crochet items.”

Artists and artisans can vary from event to event,

but among the regulars are Joseph Hodge, Carina,

Brundell-Bruce, Lisa Muddiman-Gray, Christine

Taylor, Ria O’Hagen, Pamelah Antoine, Carol Smith,

Leslie Cramer and artisans from the BVI Glass studio.

On display are watercolor and acrylic paintings,

hand blown glass objects, batik works, and other

locally crafted items.

Proudly African, which will be providing the wine,

will be offering a blind tasting of wines from South

Africa and around the world. “You can sample six

varieties of wine ranging from light rosés, crispy

whites to robust reds and then discuss them without

seeing the label or the bottle,” says Josh Ridgway of

Proudly African.

Sunday brunch in the restaurant and featuring

bottomless mimosas will also be available. Dishes

will include fruit and vegetables provided by the

farmers.

So head to the Cane Garden Bay this Sunday

afternoon and check out this original festival. Held on

the last Sunday of every month, you can make it a

monthly event.

doing it. Confronting her

now has less impact.

Why not talk with the

other members of the

group instead and remind

them that no one is perfect.

Her indiscretion does not

automatically make her a

man-eater, so no need for them to start shielding their

partners. Remind them also that a relationship is a

two way street and she cannot get to these men with-

out their consent. I think they have a bit of insecurity

in their relationships and what she did is just high-

lighting their issues. If they are so worried, then they

need to find ways to strengthen their relationships.

Nobody can be taken unless they want to be taken.

If you really feel a burning desire to say something

to her, just simply tell her you realized she made a

mistake recently, but you are happy that she resolved

it, as that might have been a situation that caused her

and others’ pain. Let her also know, that going for-

ward, you are there for her and expect better of her.

It’s not easy being a single woman with limited

options, but good friends can really get one over a

rough patch.

Dear Koren,We are a group of five women in our late 30s who

were friends since high school and we hang out some-times. One of the girls recently briefly dated a guy whois married. The other three are talking about herbehind her back and they say they feel uncomfortablewith her around their boyfriends/husbands. I person-ally don’t have a problem with her. Should I suggestwe talk to her as a group or should I just warn her onher own? –Friend

Dear Friend,

Just because someone made a mistake once, that

does not mean that they will make it again; also, just

because someone went with a married man that does

not mean that they only go after men who are taken.

We need to stop being so judgmental of each other as

women and be more helpful. They are taking her

actions which were not against them, too personally.

This woman is an adult and knows what she did.

What will you tell her that she does not already know?

Your confronting her over a situation that has already

ended might create tension, have her all defensive

and put a strain on the friendship.

While a friend is there to be a mirror sometimes to

help us to see what we are doing wrong, the best time

to draw to her attention that she might be hurting her

image and hurting another woman, would have been

SAMCRO’s last ride is beginning. Sons of

Anarchy – one of the series that has defined FX –

starts its seventh and final season Tuesday, Sept. 9.

Widely reputed for surprising, frequently violent

turns, creator and executive producer Kurt Sutter’s

saga of a motorcycle club in the fictional California

town Charming, opens its concluding round with Jax

Teller (played by Charlie Hunnam) sworn to avenge

his wife’s murder.

“I always had a sense of where I wanted it to

go,” says the famously candid Sutter, “and I come in

each season with a blueprint of what I want to do

with the big sort of arcs and mile markers. And I’ve

learned that, over seven seasons now, the looser I

grip that idea, the better the seasons are. This sea-

son really isn’t any different.

“I came in with how I wanted the season to end,

which will be obviously the end of the series, and

we’re heading in that direction. But things change

with different story ideas.”

This much is known: Drea de Matteo and Peter

Weller have been made regular cast members for

the show’s final round, and Lea Michele (“Glee”) and

Marilyn Manson have guest roles.

Unexpected moves are likely to come from famil-

iar characters, such as Hunnam’s Jax, who — backed

by his SAMCRO allies in his plan to even the score —

initially is unaware how close to home his wife’s

Anarchy reigns again on FX as series nears its end

killer is.

“This final betrayal and tragedy in his life had

completely demolished any potential of him trusting

anyone outside of his immediate circle,” the actor

notes, explaining he has been, “in all of the scenes,

trying to kind of instill a little of that sense that

unless you are my mom, my children, or one of the

Sons of Anarchy, you better look out.”

Katey Sagal (Sutter’s wife) plays that mom,

Gemma, and the character who has her own conflicts

to handle.

“What’s coming out of her mouth and what’s

going on in her brain are two different things,” Sagal

says. “And as you’ll see as the season progresses,

she’s made adjustments to the situation based on

her basic instinct, which is to survive and to keep her

family together. She is still all about that.”

Basketball League games

Saturdays and Sundays, with

night game – and this season

November. This is the second

annual basketball league,

and both Hon. Fraser and the

finals! For more information call the Save the Seed

Centre on 494-7353.

When an "Upgrade" Isn't AlwaysWhen Steve Job's revolutionary Apple Company,

the purveyors of technology married with architec-tural and graphic style, advertised their first "tablet"labeled the iPad, I jumped on the bandwagon for apre-order. This was my idea of a great concept –more than just an ebook reader or a bigger versionof the iPod for my music library, the iPad was a man-ageable size electronic whiz with almost all thecapabilities of a computer. Email: yes, Internetbrowser: yes – and with a bonus of nearly 500,000Apps in the first few years of production.

When I got my first iPad hot off the productionline it was a "bonding experience." With the 99cents per song iTunes option my music library filledout melodically along with my read-ing library thanks to Amazon's KindleApp, which offers a bigger librarythan what Apple had to offer. I hadmore songs than I had time to listento and more books than I could readeven on a long vacation, and all thisin a small light thin book format Icould carry in my purse. Besides that,I had email capabilities, Internetaccess, a camera and video recorder and a device toSkype on and all on a decent size screen I could eas-ily read – what else did I need?

Of course there were drawbacks. The built inkeyboard appeared to be a rude student who didn'tlisten to the teacher – moi. It disobediently made upits own words after I typed just a few letters, it putcaps where I did not indicate and generally had amind of its own, which was quite frustrating at first.But we were bonded after all and with so many pos-itives, I could overlook the negatives.

After a year I was back in a store with an author-ized Apple outlet, and soon convinced by a salesper-

son that the second generation iPad was far superi-or to the original and with the tantalizing offer of abuy back of my old one. Sounded good to me, so Iupgraded to iPad 2. There were some tweaks Iappreciated, like the smart cover that opened mydevice by just opening the cover. It was faster andthe picture quality far superior. In the meantimeApple went on to two more upgrades the number 3and number 4. I stayed loyal to my second genera-tion model.

Then I begin to hear buzz about the number 5called iPad Air. It came out almost simultaneouslywith the mini iPad which I had no interest in as thescreen size was one of my reasons for choosing the

tablet format. Sorry, iPhone lovers, youcan micro-manage your life on yourmicro screens, but that's not for me. Ilove those small Stone Age flip up"dumb phones" that I use for whatphones were designed to do : talk on.

So, once again I made the upgrade.Lighter weight, same screen size,improved retina display, much faster –what's not to like? Well as I learned,

not every upgrade is one I consider an improvement.The keyboard instead of crisp well lit white keys hasa subdued gray background. My photo libraryinstead of framed in a black background, whichmade the photos pop, is now in white. And many ofthe Apps I knew at a glance have changed their logostyle, so I have to relearn what I could identify withmy eyes half shut. I am a loyal Apple customer andappreciate improvements when they are just that,but if I had a voice in one of their company boardmeetings I would suggest some sage advice encap-sulated in two well-worn phrases: "Leave wellenough alone" "And if it ain't broke don't fix it."

If you’re looking for a lighthearted laugh-out-loud

comedy then Just Go With It, will make you do just

that!

The film directed by Dennis Dugan who also

directed Grown Ups and Happy Gilmore, stars (Adam

Sandler) as Danny Maccabee and (Jennifer Aniston) as

Katherine. The two pretend to be married so Sandler

can keep dating his hot young girlfriend Palmer

(Brooklyn Decker) who thinks they’re getting divorced.

It sounds all kinds of nonsensical but if you are willing

to “Just Go With It,” it actually kind of works.

Katherine, a single mom works as an assistant to

Danny, a successful plastic surgeon. After Danny calls

off his own wedding on the day he was supposed to

get married and heads to a bar, still wearing his wed-

ding ring he realizes he can pickup girls by pretending

he's married. He carries on this charade until he meets

Palmer. She likes him even without the wedding ring,

but when she later discovers his fake gold band and

declares she won't date a married man, he undertakes

a cover-up to try to keep her, afraid that telling her the

truth will push her away. The plan involves getting

Katherine to pose as his wife, conscripting her kids,

concocting a divorce, funding a "Pretty Woman"

makeover and before you can say, "Huh?" the new

girlfriend, the fake ex, the fake kids and the fake ex's

fake flame (Nick Swardson) who plays Eddie are off to

Hawaii to swim with dolphins in Hawaii.

The movie takes on a life of its own and leaves the

audience wondering what could happen next, and

although some moments are far fetched they are sur-

prisingly enjoyable and funny if you’re willing to “Just

Go With It!”

A Hidden Golden PathwayFour years ago when her sister ran in the inaugu-

ral Youth Olympic Games in Singapore, Lakeisha“Mimi” Warner who attended the event, turned herfocus on qualifying for the 2014 Nanjing YouthOlympic Games.

As fate would have it, Warner did not make thequalifying mark for the Youth Olympic Games duringthis year’s Carifta Games qualifyingcompetition in Martinique. Sheplaced fourth in the 800m in 2 min-utes 15.84 seconds.

When the dust had settled,Nelda Huggins in the 100m, DeyaErickson in the 100m Hurdles, KalaPenn in the Long Jump, KyronMcMaster in the 400mIntermediate Hurdles and AkeemBradshaw in the Triple Jump hadautomatically qualified.

It wasn’t until towards the endof July, that Warner learnt she wouldreceived a Universality qualifyingspot in her event, reviving her Nanjing dream. Shedidn’t run well in her 800m event finishing a disap-pointing sixth in 2:18.67, which put her in the C final.

The A, B and C finalist are determined by prelimperformances. The best 8-9 times or measurementsadvanced to the A finals and compete for the medals.The next best 8-9 finishers are placed in B finals andthe rest in C finals. B and C finalists are not awardedmedals. Warner won the C 800m final in 2:16.71.

Huggins became the territory’s second athletebehind Darnetia Robinson in 2010, competing for the100m A finals gold after winning her heat in 11.81 sec-onds but placed sixth in the final in 11.87.

Kala Penn finished 6th in the B Long Jump Final

after jumping 5.19m. During the prelims, she estab-lished a best mark of 5.22m.

Erickson ran the 100m Hurdles in 14.76 secondsbut was unable to contest the C final because of aninjury.

Bradshaw placed fifth in the B Triple Jump finalwith a leap of 13.90, after a best bound of 14.33m to

open the prelims.McMaster pushed down the sev-

enth hurdle in the prelims after losinghis concentration and was subse-quently disqualified. In the B final, hewas charged with a false start.

By the time the 8x100m MixedRelays rolled around on Tuesday, thepressure was off everyone. Warner,17, meeting her teammates at theline for the first time to make upTeam #34 – four women and fourmen including a Shot Putter wascomprised of athletes fromRomania, Russia, Trinidad and

Tobago, Venezuela, Australia, Comoros, Germanyand Thailand.

With a little help from her new found friends fromaround the world – several of who didn’t even speakher language – Warner won a Mixed 8 x100m Relaygold medal to close of the track and field competition.

They had winning time of 1 minute 40.20 seconds,after the second best time of 1:41.79 in the prelims.

“It feels awesome even though the 800m didn'tgo as well,” Warner said. “It was a very interestingexperience and if I could do it again I definitely would.It was nice to learn about different cultures and meet-ing new people from around the world. It's an experi-ence of a lifetime.”

The objective is to fill the full 9x9 grid withdigits so that each column, each row, andeach of the nine 3x3 “sub-grids” that com-pose the main grid contains all of the digitsfrom 1 to 9 – with no repeats within each rowor column within the entire square. A partial-ly completed grid is usually provided, whichtypically has a unique solution. See nextweeks Limin’ Times issue for solution.
