The book, written by Cor po-

ination of murder incidents that
occurred in the Bahamas

addresses the murder rate of
the Bahamas in comparison to
other regional countries as well
as larger countries across the
world. The information con- -

Police have long said that
most murders in the Bahamas
stem from the inability of

in a reasonable manner, The
statistics show this as most mur-

domestic arguments where 70
per cent of murder victims knew
their assailants.
“This reveals that in our cul-

A MEDICAL report submitted at an
assault hearing involving Abaco lawyer
-Rhonda Hull was challenged by her
attorney yesterday,
The report, relating to American
James Sullivan, who is part owner of
* Abaco Inn, and his wife, Rebecca, was
presented in Marsh Harbour magistrate’s

Mr and Mrs Sullivan went to Hope

alleged incident involving Rhonda Hull.
According to. the police report, Ms
Hull entered the Sullivans’ property on
August 28 and burned Mr Sullivan on
his face with a cigarette, and attempted
to strike his wife with a piece of wood.
Ms Hull's attorney, Wayne Munroe,
challenged the report in court, saying he

Shoe store
threatens to
sue newspaper
A LOCAL shoe store
chain is threatening to sue
The Nassau Guardian and
a reporter for libel unless
an article written about the
company is retracted.
In a press release yester-
day, Quick Kicks shoe
store threatened to take
“full legal action†against
“false and erroneous
claims†made by the news-
aper.
“Quick Kicks Co Ltd is
appalled at the lack of pro-
fessionalism and irrespon-
sible journalism by The -.
Nassau Guardian. Mindell. i
Small, a senior reporter at.
The Guardian, reported a
story claiming that our
company had wrongfully
fired some staff and had
failed to pay their national
insurance,†said the
release: ..
Said! Quick Kicks presi-
dent, Lincoln Bain: “Our
company is not only regis-
tered with National Insur-
ional insur-
tion:
Companies
“Mr Small should be
advised that companies
have the choice of paying
national insurance weekly,
monthly, quarterly, or
yearly. This company has
not been opened a year yet
therefore could not have
failed to pay.â€
“Our company has not
been charged by any gov-
ernment officials or enti-
ties with wrongful firing.
The use of the word
‘charge’ implies an official
offence. This amounts to
libel. And unless retracted
we will take legal action
against the reporter
responsible and The Nas-
sau Guardian.†ni
Mr Bain added that upon
investigation, it was found
that only one employee
and her sister came to The
Nassau Guardian making
claims about the company,
rather than a “group of .
persons†as was reported.
What was more trou-
bling, said Mr Bain, is that
when employees of Quick
Kicks came to the newspa-
per in an attempt to tell
“their side of the story†on
Tuesday, police were .
called to the scene.
This, he said, was “offen-
sive". ,
. Quick Kicks opened its
doors in May 2005, and has
branches at Village Road,
East Street, and in Grand
Bahama. -
More than 20 employees
now work within the chain.
The president said the
company purchases all staff
uniforms, and even extends
loans to their employees
‘without interest.
Mr Bain added: “We
have the best tennis store -
in Nassau because we treat
’ our staff well and they pass
it on to our customers. Our
motto is we buy en masse,
we sell en masse, meaning
we are able to offer our
products at a lower price."

‘New subcommittee
handle proposals for
BPSU negotiations
‘Minister makes
announcement
i. By KARAN MINNIS
A CABINET subcommittee
: . has been-established to prepare
-f° .proposals for renewed negations °
vd. with the Bahamas Public Ser-
“vice Union.
- The formation of the com-
mittee was announced yester-
day by Foreign Affairs and Pub-
lic Service Minister Fred
Mitchell. : :
The Bahamas Public Service
Union (BPSU) has repeatedly
_Tejected government’s. propos-
: al for a lump sum payment:of
“$1,300 to public servants, and
1as continued to.agitate for an
cross-the-board pay increase
of $1,800.
Mr Mitchell announced last
week in the House of Assem-
bly that the next step would be
for new proposals to be submit-
ted by both sides.
"I really just wanted to take
this opportunity to invite the
public to have a look at what
we are doing in terms of the pro-
posals which are being generat-
ed for negotiations with the
- Bahamas Public Service Union,"
he said.
"T announced in the House of
Assembly last week that a series
of steps have been taken to set-
tle a set of proposals to advance
to the Public Service Union.
Those proposals were presented
to the Cabinet yesterday and as
~ aresult of that, a subcommittee
of the Cabinet has been formed
to deal with the proposals."
Mr Mitchell explained that
the subcommittee is made up of
five ministers: The Minister of
State for Finance James Smith,
himself as the minister for the.
Public Service, Minister of
Works and Utilities Bradley
Roberts, Minister of Education
Alfred Sears, and Minister of
Housing Shane Gibson.
"This subcommittee will work
with the technical team, which
has as its consultants Mr Keith
Archer and Mr Frank Carter
both of whom are well known
trade unionists and have con-.
siderable experience in the
field," said Mr Mitchell.
"I wanted the public to get a
sense of how seriously and assid-
uously ... we are at working at
trying to generate these propos-
als so that at the earliest possible
time there can be a reasonable

set of proposals advanced on
behalf of the government to
indicate where we think things
ought to go."
“Mr Mitchell said he could not
~ state exactly which industrial
issues the subcommittee will be
addressing.
Requests
"I think there are about 25 or
, so requests which they have had
.-and which they said they want in .
« the form. of an industrial agree-
“ment so it’s clear that there will
-have to be some responses to
those requests, and those
requests range from salary
_Increase at one end to terms and
conditions and things like (flex-
ible hours) and other non-salary
issues, so all'‘of these will be in
the mix," he said.
"But in terms of what the gov-
ernment is responding to, I
would only say that am not in
the position to put any of those
in the public domain," the min-
ister added.

Cutting back
on our oil
consumption
EDITOR, The Tribune
THERE has been much writ-
ten in the local and interna-
tional press about the escalating
prices of oil. For Leslie Miller’s
information, worldwide demand
—not OPEC, not Esso, Shell or
Texaco — has driven up prices
creating huge profits for the oil
companies. Worldwide oil con-
sumption is growing three per
‘ cent to five per cent per year,
while production and reserves
continue to decline. China and -
India are growing their gross
national product at 10 per cent
to 13 per cent per year. They
have just about single-handedly
caused the world to run through
its already slim excess produc-
tion capacity.
So, world economic growth
has finally caught up with dwin-
dling oil production. At current
consumption rates, prices can
be expected to continue to
climb until consumers in the
world’s various economies curb
their wasteful lifestyles and
reduce. their consumption
enough to stabilize prices. Spec-
ulation by traders is also affect-
ing prices, causing a de-linking
of price to supply and demand.
It will take a massive change
in the supply/demand equation
to kill off market speculations.
Since no huge increase in supply
is on the horizon, we are left
with reducing our demand as
the only available cure. We
can’t rely on the government to
help us. We can’t rely on the
oil companies to help us. We
can’t rely on foreign countries
to help us. So, each of us has to
. take care of ourselves. (a novel:
idea in the early 21st century!).
E-mail:
“Recently a lot has been writ-
ten about not buying fuel for
one day causing the oil compa-
nies and oil producing countries
to feel a pinch, personally I
don’t think this will hurt either.
If you drive and use the same
amount of fuel on that day, you
will have to buy it the next day,
nothing accomplished.
Prices are driven by demand,
if we reduce our consumption
by changing our lifestyles just
a bit (e.g. car pool, drive a little
slower, eliminate unnecessary
trips) demand will decrease and
prices will begin to moderate.
What I suggest is we declare
October “Conserve: Fuel
Monthâ€. We all have to use
fuel, there is no way of getting
around it. If we would cut our
fuel consumption by just 25 per
cent during October, we will cut
demand and keep more of our
money in our pockets. Conser-

Delays of
post-mortem
examinations
in Grand
Bahama
@ By DENISE
MAYCOCK
Tribune Freeport
Reporter
FREEPORT - The
absence of a resident
pathologist at the Rand
Memorial Hospital has
caused delays of post-
mortem examinations on
Grand Bahama.
This deficiency has
resulted in frustrating
delays in identification of
bodies, issuing of death
certificates and release of
bodies at the hospital
morgue, say concerned
citizens.
Vacant
The position of hospi-
tal pathologist became
vacant in June following
the retirement of Dr
Alfred Brathwaite, who
_ was the consultant
: pathologist in Freeport
| for many years.
Funeral operators say
that since his retirement,
' they have been affected
: by the slow release of
- bodies by authorities.
This, they said, some-
times leaves them with
_ insufficient time to pre-
pare bodies for viewing
for bereaved family
members.
' «The Tribune made sev-
' eral attempts on Tuesday
to contact hospital
, administrator Sharon
' Williams.
“She did not return calls
or messages up to press
time.
. Search
While in Grand
Bahama:this week, Min-
ister of Health Dr Mar-
cus Bethel said that an
active search is underway
to find a resident pathol-
ogist for Grand Bahama.
“In the meantime, tem-
porary arrangements
have been made for a
pathologist out of Nassau
to travel to Grand
Bahama once a week
until the position can be
filled.

THE TRIBUNE
The other side of Sir Stafford Sands
VIEWPOINT
Mee debate ensued
in the wake of the gov-
ernment’s announced intention
earlier this year to remove the
image of Sir Stafford L. Sands
from the $10 note of our local cur-
rency, and even more — both pro
and con — after that avowed inten-
tion became a reality recently.
The justifying rationale stated
for such a drastic move was the
accusation levelled against Sir
Stafford of having been a racist.
While we hold no brief for Sir
Stafford, we have always held the
view that history should be taken
in its context — so that we do not
impose today’s yardstick on mat-
ters that occurred decades before,
_ When circumstances were com-
pletely different from how there
are presently.
Having lived through the Sands
era, and having been politically
active during the latter portion
of the same, we too are well
aware of the racist aspect of Sir
Stafford’s character and, given
the immense power that he wield-
ed politically in this country at
that time, we are also aware of
the adverse effect the abusive
employment of the same had on
the masses of our people.
However, fairness compels us
to point out that Sir Stafford was
not the only racist in the minority
' group governing the Bahamas ~
during that period in our history.
While we respect the feelings of
those Bahamians who despise Sir
Stafford for his racist attitude and ©
the pain and suffering they
endured due to the same, our case
against Sir Stafford is somewhat
different.
Here was a man who was con-
tent to perpetuate minority rule in
this former British colony, but
one who was not prepared to live
in the Bahamas once majority
rule had been attained in January,
1967.
Instead, he elected to abandon
this country following that his-
toric achievement by the masses,
even though the Bahamian peo-
ple had re-elected him to repre-
sent the City District in the House
of Assembly in that very same
national poll. °
DN eeentetesvana in fair-
ness to the man, Sir
Stafford was a -political giant, a
financial genius, and one who per-
haps made one of the greatest
contributions to the economic
development of the Bahamas —
Omega Psi Phi F magernity, Inc. ee
in. both the tourism and financial
services sectors.
In an address given by Mr
C'alvin Kemp on August 30 this
year in Freeport, Grand Bahama,
as that city celebrated its golden
jubilee, this aspect of Sir
‘Stafford’s legacy — among other
things — was quite eloquently
dealt with.
The occasion was a meeting of
the Rotary Club of Lucaya at
which Mr Kemp addressed that
civic organisation onthe topic: - ~
“Whe Legacy of Sir Stafford Sands
with Particular Reference to his
Contribution to the Miracle of
Freeportâ€.
iIHe commenced his well-
researched remarks thus:
‘On August 4 this year we cel-
ebrated the 50th anniversary of
the creation of the City of
Freeport, which came about when
the Government of the Bahamas
and a private company called and
now known as the Grand
Bahama Port Authority (GBPA)
signed the original Hawksbill
Creek Agreement in 1955.â€
Comtinuing, Mr Kemp stated:
“Mr Wallace Groves, the origi-
nal cwner of the GBPA, was a
GEORGE
ney and confidante, whom he had
met during one of his earlier vis-
its to the Bahamas.â€
ontinuing in this vein,
Mx Kemp added: “Even-
tually, Mr Groves revised his plan
so that all manufacturing and
building materials necessary for
the development of the project
would be imported duty-free and,
eventually, all items manufac-
tured in this ‘port area’ would be

citizen of the United States of†to ‘the
America who had first visited the
Bahamas in 1930 and bought a
small island known as Little
Whaile Cay. On a subsequent vis-
it in 1946, Mr Groves bought for
his Canadian-born wife all of the
shares in the Abaco Lumber
Company, which was transferring
its activities An Abaco to Grand
Bahama.â€
Mr Kemp ten had this to say:
“Just about this time, the
Bahamas was in the process of
putting together an ingenious eco-
nomic development plan, pri-
marily through the efforts of a
young lawyer named Stafford
Sands.†Continuing in this vein,
Mr Kemp told his audience that,
during: the course of his address,
he would attempt to not only doc-
ument the role of Sir Stafford in
the dewelopment of Freeport, but
also ex.amine his reputation as a
rabid and incorrigible racist.
Mr Kemp pointed out how, in
the early 1950s, “ideas began to
mature in the mind of Mr Groves
about the development of this
island which he thought to be ide-
ally situated on the Western
Hemisphere shipping lanes. It
seemed to be the perfect place to
establish a ‘free port’. So, he
decided that the project was
worth exploring and discussed it

exported duty free. “But, the
most important switch was that
all consumer goods brought in
would be liable to the normal
import duties.â€
‘In concluding this point, Mr
Kemp said: “Sir Stafford was so
impressed with this new proposal
that he canvassed it among his
political colleagues who were
equally impressed and he was
instructed by Mr Groves to begin
preparation of the first draft of
the now famous Hawksbill Creek
Agreement.â€
Via that agreement, according
to Mr Kemp, “Mr Groves’ Grand
Bahama Port Authority (GBPA)
undertook to construct a deep
water harbour and turning basin
at Hawksbill Creek to assist in
the establishment of an industrial
complex to be set up there. For
its part, the government agreed
to make available to the GBPA

50,000 acres of Crown land,
including the bed of the sea, at a
price of one British pound (about
US $2.86) per acre.†__
Having been advised by Sir
Stafford, Mr Groves determined
it would be easier to promote a
profitable development if he
could provide amenities such as
hotels, residential and shopping
areas, golf courses, tennis cour!s
and other appropriate churc
school, health and amusemeut
facilities. These:-amenities, he said,
Mr Groves reasoned would
attract to Freeport executive aid
technically skilled persons, as well
as tourists and settlers.
To actualise the above vision,
Mr Kemp further stated, Mr
Groves joined forces with Cana-
dian Louis Chesler in 1961 to
form the Grand Bahama Devel-
opment Company. (Devco): The
~~GBPA then sold Devco some
102,000 acres upon which to-
develop the project-in an area
that became known as Lucaya.
’ However, a year later, slow
progress led the company to con-
sider casino gambling as a stimu-
lus to spur on further and faster _
.development. As such gambling
was unlawful in the Bahamas, it
required from the Governor in
Council the approval of a certifi-
cate of exemption from this pro-
hibition, as per the precedent set
in 1939 that allowed the Bahami-
an Club to operate a casino in
Nassau.
Continuing, Mr Kemp then
revealed the following: “On
March 20, 1963, Bahamas
Amusements Limited, a company
owned by Mr Chesler and Ms
Groves was incorporated. On the
very same day of its incorpora-
tion, Sir Stafford Sands, its attor-
ney, applied for a certificate of
exemption. One week later, on
March 27, 1963, the application
was considered by the Governor
in Council (which included Sir
Stafford) and approved with the
certificate being issued five days
later.
A: that certificate grant- :
ed the company to
operate casinos on the entire
island of Grand Bahama, Mr
Kemp said, for a period of 10
years, commencing January 1,
1964, it gave rise to the establish-
ment of the Monte Carlo Casino
in the newly-built Lucayan Beach
Hotel and El Casino in the Inter-
national Bazaar, across from the
’ then King’s Inn Hotel.
Proceeding on this point, Mr
Kemp then stated how on Janu-
ary 7, 1964, the British accorded
internal self-government to the
Bahamas. Thus, the Cabinet
replaced the old Executive Coun-
cil, on which Sir Stafford had
served, Sir Roland T Symonette
became our first Premier, and Sir
Stafford became a Cabinet Min-
ister with responsibility for the
tourism portfolio.
Mr Kemp further related how
in late 1966, The Wall Street Jour-
nal and other foreign newspapers
were reporting that the casinos
had been infiltrated by the Mafia.
In the wake of these allegations,
he continued, the UBP govern-
ment announced the appointment
of a Commission of Inquiry into.
the business of casinos in
‘Freeport and in Nassau. This
Commission was to begin its work
sometime after the general elec-
tion scheduled for January 10,
1967.
’ However, Mr Kemp continued,
the UBP lost that election, and
the PLP — with the help of Inde-
pendent member Mr Alvin Bray-
nen and Labour member Mr
Randol Fawkes — ushered in
majority rule via a coalition gov-
ernment with a one-seat margin.
Thus it was Sir Lynden O Pin-
dling, as the new Premier, who
ultimately appointed the Com-
mission of Inquiry on March 4,
1967, that the UBP had promised
the year-before, Mr Kemp added.
( ontinuing, Mr Kemp
stated that the Commis-
sion met for 45 days, heard 54
witnesses, and presented its .
report to the Governor in Octo-
ber, 1967. According to him, it
was a bombshell. He then had
this to say regarding the report:
“Among other things, the report
revealed that while he was legal
counsel for Mr Groves and the
GBPA, Sir Stafford Sands had
arrahged for himself and five of
the six members appointed by the
Governor to serve on the Execu-
tive Council, to sign ‘consultancy
agreements’ with the Port
Authority, and the GBPA paid
them hefty annual fees.â€
Mr Kemp further stated that:
“These were the people who,
along with Sir Stafford, would
have authorised the government
to approve and issue the certifi-
cate of exemption for Bahamas
Amusements Limited to engage
in gambling and do so within a
record time of 12 days.â€
In his address, Mr Kemp, nev-
ertheless, credited Sir Stafford for
his vision and support that gave
rise to the development of the
Magic City of Freeport. He also
went to great detail in lauding the-
great contribution Sir Stafford
. had made to our tourism industry,,
initially in his capacity as chair--
man of the Development Board:
and ultimately as Minister of;
Tourism.
Mr Kemp likewise commended
Sir Stafford for his visionary
efforts in establishing the financial
services sector of our economy;
and for the many investment:
incentives he caused to be legis-.
lated. He topped off this aspect of*
Sir Stafford’s contribution to the
development of the Bahamas by
’ highlighting the role he played in-
the decimalisation of Bahamian:
currency in 1966, pegging the.
same to the equivalent of the.
United States dollar. pe
In his concluding remarks, Mr
Kemp said: “In many ways, Sir,
Stafford’ story is filled'‘with great
irony, for he not only represented
the very best of the people of his
times, as evidenced by his contri-
butions in law, politics and‘ eco-,
nomic development, but he also:
represented the worst, as evi-
denced by his racism.’ :
In researching the life ani
times of Sir Stafford for his:
address, he found his story to be
such an intriguing saga that he:
grew to respect and admire the,
obviously positive traits withity
' this man. Regarding the address.
itself, Mr Kemp expressed the,
hope that he had succeeded in.
satisfying some of the curiosity,,
about this man, Sir Stafford,
whom he considered to have been
one of the most fascinating and
colourful personalities to havé
ever lived within our Bahama,
land.
Think on these things.

Preom time to time
organisations lose their

What does it mean for an
organisation to lose its way?
it means that the people in
the organisation become pre-
occupied with basic survival as
»pposed to fulfilling the organ-
sation’s mission.
!t means that the organisa-
tion becomes focused on its
internal challenges rather than
its external opportunities. It
means that egos in the organi-

Good leaders strive for
objectivity, even when, it is
painful to do.so; poor leaders
strive for comfort, even when
achieving it is harmful.
When an organisation has
lost its way, the leader wants to
know and to know in the most
certain terms what is going on.
This means making a clear
assessment of the environment
in which the organisation finds

first place, presumably, was to
help the organisation fulfil its
mission. Serving the mission is
how lost organisations find their
way again.
MAKE DECISIONS
Prous, make strategic
decisions. Having made
strategies for achieving the mis-
sion, the leader must guide the
organisation to make definitive
decisions about the next set of
actions to be taken. All may
not agree on what those actions
are but if consensus is arrived
at, the decisions should be
made.

sonable risks. Having used the
best information available to
plot a set of options in response
to prevailing circumstances, a
leader chooses among his
options and sets out with gusto
to make them happen.
The leader, motivating,
coaching, guiding, encouraging
and protecting his people, push-
es steadily along, allowing only
the ultimate revelation that a
strategy cannot work to deter
him. He is energised by the
process that led to the clarity
of his mission, the sound strate-
gies that make its fulfilment
possible and the rewards of that
mission’s fulfilment.

achieve the mission, if they
believe in it at all. In this regard,
a leader must understand that
there is a difference between
having a thought and having
another’s thought. A good .
leader must have clear, concise
thoughts of his own about life,
the mission and its pursuit. He
must be given to deep and fre-
quent reflections, so that he can
own the ideas he articulates to
others.
All good leaders seek counsel °
but often that counsel is sought
to augment thoughts of his own
rather than provide them alto-
gether.
A leader must appreciate the
difference between spending
time and passing time. Having
been around a long time is not
equal to having given one self to
good effort for a long time. The
quality of a good leader’s time is
measured not in terms of quan-
tity but in terms of results
achieved.
No-one should pretend that
helping a lost organisation, busi-
ness or otherwise, find itself is
an easy assignment; it is not. It
is, however, possible.
With determination, focus
and care, a leader can lift his
broken body out of the ashes
of ruin to rise to a certain vic-
tory.
He, however, must be willing
to do all in his power to lead
BAY STRE
the charge. In the end, whether
he ultimately succeeds or not
depends on whether he is able
to secure the confidence of the
people he leads; to do so, he
must call on all the emotional
intelligence and social skills he
can muster. |
Failure is possible but so is
victory and it is the latter upon
which he should focus.

Tribune celebrates sales
FROM page one
its steady circulation climb, the
Guardian has slumped by
another 6.3 per cent year-on-
year, showing a total loss of
more than 18 per cent over the
last two years. j
The news comes as The Tri-
bune launches a new promo-
tional campaign based on the
slogan “My Voice - My News-
paper†- highlighting the paper’s
solid standing in all sections of
the community.
Managing editor John Mar-
quis said yesterday: “The Tri-
. bune is a paper for every sec-
tion of Bahamian society. Peo-
ple know they can rely on us
to take on the big issues and
tell the truth. That’s why they
are turning to us in increasing
numbers.
“The Tribune's continuing
climb is particularly heartening
when the global trend for daily
newspapers is downwards. It
shows that we are being seen
by more and more people as
the leading media voice in the
Bahamas.â€
Latest ABC figures show the
Guardian’s weekly sale at
64,713, a 6.3 per cent fall year-
on-year. The Tribune’s weekly
sale is up to 76,297 — a rise of
six per cent.
For the first time in recent
memory, the Guardian’s aver-
age paid circulation on four days
a week is under 10,000. Even
The Tribune’s Saturday sale —
by far its lowest of the week —-
is higher than that at 10,792.
A media analyst said: “Sev-
- eral makeovers in the last few
years have failed to halt the
Guardian’s slide. It has lost a
lot of ground since the 1990s.
The Tribune is now unques-
tionably the dominant force and
it’s hard to see how anyone else
will catch it.â€
The Tribune’s marketing
manager, Sean Moore, said the
new promotional campaign was
developed after considering the
significant editorial and circu-
lation strides the newspaper
Oost
had made over the last seven
years.
“The Tribune has clearly
become the first choice of peo-
ple seeking information that is
important to their lives, be. it
local, regional or internation-
al,†he said.
“The readers’ choice of how
they spend their 50 cents has
allowed us to increase our cir-
culation another six per cent,
while others are declining.
“The Tribune enjoys a repu-
tation of providing accurate and
reliable information to assist the
public in formulating consid-'
ered ideas and opinions; and’
helping our advertisers to reach
their customers.â€

WOULD you be stunned if
you offered full-price for a
home, and then the vendors
rejected your offer in favour of
another, also at full-price? Then
you’d also be surprised to learn
that vendors are not obligated
to accept any offer — even one
higher than full price.
. Not selling at the advertised
price wouldn’t work well for
retailers, but when sellers set
an “asking price,†it’s just that —
they’re “asking†for an offer to
match that. Asking and accept-
ing are two different things.
Protect yourself by only
offering to purchase a home
that is listed with a BREA real

you some guarantee that the

FRIENDS and family mem-
bers joined administrators,
teachers and students in the
Queen’s College Auditorium
on September 29 for the third
annual “Celebration of Excel-
lence†ceremony.
The celebration was held
under the theme: “Pathways to
success†and applause greeted
honorees as they walked the
red carpet to accept certificates
for outstanding performance
during the past school year.
In her welcome address to
board members, foundation
‘members, special guests, par-
ents, friends of the honourees
and honourees, principal
Andrea Gibson praised staff,
students and parents for their
exemplary efforts and out-
standing achievements.
Miss Gibson told honourees
that they should be proud of
their accomplishments and that
the whole Queen’s College
family was proud to celebrate
‘with them.
First to be honoured were
former grade six students who
excelled in the various skills
tested in the 2005 GLAT exam-
inations.
Then followed the high
school subject prize winners for
the:2004-2005 school year. Cer-
tificates, presented by deputy
head of the high school
Heather Wood were awarded
to the best junior high students
(grades seven to nine) and the
best senior high students
(grades LOto 11).
Next, deputy head of high
school Henry Knowles pre-
sented certificates to BIC hon-
ourees. ;
These students earned one
or more “A†grades in the June-
BJC examinations.
| All together, 60 students
were honoured in this category,
21 of whom were eighth
graders. Some of these eatned
‘A’ grades in as many as three
BJC subjects.
Those who achieved excel-
lence in the June 2005 BGCSE
examinations were next to be
honoured.
Before the presentations, it
was noted that all the students
had achieved success through
a programme of acceleration.
Certificates were presented
by Shawn Turnquest, vice prin-
cipal and head of high school.
' While in grade eight, nine,
10 or 11, these
-honourees achieved ‘A’
grades in the recent BGCSEâ„¢
exams, (traditionally a grade 12
exam). :
In all, 51 students were hon-
oured for their excellence.
Principal Andrea Gibson
presented certificates to the
- final group of honourees.
In all, 25 students received
recognition for having earned a
place on the prestigious Prin-
cipal’s List. In order to be
recognised in this category, a
student must maintain a GPA
of 3.7 or above throughout the
school year.
Reverend “Bill†Higgs, Min-
ister of Trinity Methodist
Church congratulated all the
honorees and commended their
commitment to excellence.
He said that he hoped the
ceremony would motivate
every student to strive for excel-
lence in the coming year.
The programme concluded
with the installation of high
school prefects for the new
school year 2005-2006.
' After the “passing of the
torch†ceremony, in which the
new head prefects promised to
carry the light of knowledge out
into the world, the teacher
mentors formed a guard of hon-
our and the newly installed pre-
fects left the platform to the
applaud and cheers of their
classmates and family members.

However, if you can manage
the challenges of using wire-

employing a wireless solution
in the workplace.
Convenience
In this modern Bahamas,
where greasy chicken is king
and convenience is highly
sought, one of the biggest
advantages to be had by
deploying wireless in the work-
place is convenience.
One of the areas in which
convenience can be gained
through Wireless isin presen-

on to the corporate LAN via a
wireless guest access.
Other solutions that are
highly convenient for a worker
are Blackberries and Pocket-
PCs that employ wireless tech-
nology. These solutions give us
access to corporate and other
information from anywhere in
the world without sitting at a
desktop computer or even
‘using a-71b laptop.
Mobility
Another big advantage to be
had by deploying wireless in
the workplace is that it enables ©
the “mobile workforceâ€. There
is now a whole new type of
worker that travels for their job
and requires the ability to stay
in touch with the office. You
may just travel from island to
island or from country. to coun-
’ try. Either way, wireless tech-
nology makes communication |
between the road warrior and
the home base a lot easier.
Wireless technology is now
ay Rene wich
common in a lot of places that
business travellers frequent.
Most business hotels boast
Wireless Internet access and
many coffee shops and airports
are now classified as hot spots.
Access to this technology is
considered by many business
people to no longer be a luxu-
ry but a necessity. Work needs
to get done whether the work-
er is physically in the office or
not.
Security
Security concerns have been
the biggest obstacles to the
widespread use of wireless
technology. In an ideal world, .
we wouldn’t have to worry
’ about hackers or sniffers but,
unfortunately, the world is far
from ideal.
Technology has anticipated
the risks associated with using
wireless at work and has
offered solutions. WEP was.-
one of the first big ways to
tackle this problem. However,
in 2001, a major flaw was
detected in WEP, which led to
it being compromised. Never-
theless, WEP is still widely
used today. WPA (Wi-Fi Pro- -
tected Access) is intended to .
be a replacement for WEP.
WPA offers more rohust meth-
ods'‘of encryption and authen-,
tication.
The most secure method of
“accéssing critical data across
the Internet is Virtual Private
Network (VPN) technology.
This method is highly recom-
mended. Wireless vendors now
put VPNs to work to secure

said.
“The focus of your seminar
today, with the presence of
speakers only from the tourism
sector, is reflective and indica-
tive of this mindset.â€
He added: “The unfortunate
aspect is that economic devel-
opment has become equated
with tourism development, due
primarily to its employment
potential. Successive govern-
ments have failed to be innov-
ative in identifying and proac-
tively pursuing diversification
of the economy, albeit paying
lip service to it.â€
The Bahamas’ preparation
and response to global eco-
nomic forces, such as free trade
and the movement of workers,
would determine how investors
planned and reacted in relation
to their investments in this
nation, Mr Bethel said.
This would also impact the
level and type of new invest-
ment the Bahamas was able to
attract, he added, citing the
departure of the external insur-
ance industry during the 1970s
and impact on the financial ser-
vices sector from the response
to the blacklisting crisis in 2000
as examples of what might hap-
pen in the absence of prepara-
tion.
Control
Although the Bahamas could
not control the effects of glob-
alisation, Mr Bethel said it was
able to shape internal develop-
ments that would determine
whether investors consider this
nation an attractive place in
which to do business.

Apart from regulatory trans-

Mr Bethel said: “We must
avoid creating unnecessary
bureaucratic measures and self-
serving kingdoms where politi-
cians, bureaucrats and regula-
tors perceive their designated
tasks as being hindrances or
hurdles rather than facilitators
to the investor and participants
in economic development.â€
Investor
He added that both the
investor and Bahamian work-
ers had to take responsibility
for the success or failure of the
business.
‘Mr Bethel explained: “The
foreign investor must be and
remain cognisant of how ‘his
investment both unfolds and
impacts on the national eco-
nomic, professional, social and
cultural development of the
people of-the country, and
more particularly his employ-
ees.
“Tf the investment is not
actively incorporating or posi-
tively interacting with the goals
and aspirations of the people
then it is either creating or con-
tributing to a potentially explo-
sive environment.
“Similarly, the employee
must recognise the requirement
for sustained productivity and
honesty, and appreciate that
the investment in the country is
not a charitable donation, an.
arm of government or an enti-
tlement.â€

employees on retirement
BUSINESS owners need to
organise and understand their
employees to help prepare them
for retirememt, Hiram Cox,
portfolio manager at Colina
Financial Advisors, told dele-
gates at.a Retirement Benefits
Seminar.
Mr Cox advised employers to
keep track of the average num-
ber of years until retirement for
their employees. Past service and
average turnover rate were also
important factors to consider
because the Jatter can place a
major strain on resources.
Developing short, medium
and long-term goals was another
strategy Mr Cox suggested. For
example, he said that if an
employee was about to retire in
five years, it made sense to
invest in a bond that matured in
five years to ensure that funds
were available to pay that
employee upon retirement.
Mr Cox said that whether
employers choose a defined ben-
efit or defined contribution pen-
sion plan, both employers and
employees should be aware of
whether their benefits are guar-
anteed or not, who bears the
brunt of the investment risk, the
costs involved, and whether the
benefits are paid out in a lump
sum or annuity.
Additionally, Mr Cox advised
employers to draft an Invest-
ment Policy Statement that
should include information on
investment guidelines and strat-
egy for the plan’s portfolio.
Understandingand determining
the asset allocation or how much
of the total funds should be
placed in each type of invest-
ment is very important because
statistics show that asset alloca-
tion is directly responsible for
80 per cent of a portfolio’s
return.
industry guidelines state that
40-50 per cent of one’s portfolio
should be allocated to equities;
15-20 per cent in securities; 30-35
per cent in bonds, and cash
should be a maximum of 10 per
cent of your portfolio because
historically at a maximum of 7.5
per cent, it yields the lowest
returns. ,

He urged Bahamian business-
es and workers at the point-of-
sale to look for the watermark
and embedded security thread
on the new. US $10 bill, and
added that on the right- -hand
portion of the bill, there was a
special form of ink that changed
colour from copper to green and
back agains, depending on what
angle it was viewed from under
light.
Mr Felix said: “We think that
by far is the most difficult fea-
ture to simulate, so other people -
at the point-of-sale can look for
that in particular.â€
US bills of various denomina-
tions were redesigned on a seven
to 10-year cycle, and Mr Felix
added:
“The real driver is-
advances in reporgraphic tech-
nology. As they come up, we
have to stay one step ahead of
counterfeiters.â€
Colour copiers, scanners and
- reprographic technology had
become more widely available,
. Mr Felix said, making it easier
for criminals to counterfeit cur-
rencies.
He added that the US Trea-
‘ sury had linked up with its UK
and European Union (EU)
counterparts, plus central banks
“in different parts of the world,
to develop technology that will
help against the counterfeiting
threat internationallyâ€.
But putting the problem in
perspective, Mr Felix said there
was $600 billion in US currency
in circulation around the world,
and last year less than $50 mil-
: lion of that was found to be
counterfeit.
Management and
Scotiabank (Bahamas) Limited are

‘He explained that for every
. 10,000 US$10 notes in circula-
tion, this meant only one was
counterfeit.
“We have to be proactive,
scanning the horizon to per-
empt trends in colour copiers,
scanners and digital repro-
_ graphics,†Mr Felix said.
The next US note likely to-be
up for redesign is the $100 bill,
which would happen “in a year
or soâ€, but there were no plans
to alter the $1 bill.
Mr Felix said Bahamians and
Bahamas-based businesses were
likely to see the new $10 bill in
circulation in this nation by Feb-
ruary or March 2006. The older
design will not be recalled, but
will gradually filter out of the
system, with the US authorities
allowing “the market to deter-'
mine†how quickly they will be
phased out.

Advisors, shared the presenta-
tion on ‘Financial Planning and
Retirement’. ;
Mr Braithwaite contends that
getting organised, starting with a
personal financial notebook for
you and your family, should be
one of the first steps to helping
plan for a more financially
secure retirement.
“Get a financial notebook, set
.goals, evaluate your cash flow,
develop and stick to a budget,
create a savings strategy and
explore investment options,†Mr
Braithwaite advised.
He said a financial notebook
should contain a money section
where you record all your
accounts; a financial documents
section that includes informa-
tion such as real estate, wills and
trusts; legal personal and family
directories, and financial plans
that include your financial goals.
Just.as important as having a
financial notebook is setting
short, medium and longer term
goals that could include chil-
dren’s college funds, exotic vaca-
tions and saving for retirement,
Mr Braithwaite said.
“Without goals your financial
plan has no meaning,†said Mr
Braithwaite. ~

all medical ser-

to “take full
advantage†of Bahamas
Waste’s $1 million medical
waste treatment and disposal
facility on Gladstone Road.
Speaking at the facility’s offi-
. cial opening, Dr Marcus Bethel
said previous methods for dis-
posing of medical waste in the
Bahamas, involving a “limited
controlled fashion†and then a
combinatio of incinerator and
landfill disposal, die not deliv-
er the level of performance
needed.
He added that medical
waste, if not managed properly,
‘would adversely affect the
health, safety and well-being
of all, if it enters the munici-
pal waste stream. ,
It is also potentially haz-
ardous:as it emanates from any
. source during storage, trans-
port, treatment and/or final dis-
. posal, and can also negatively
impact the environment if,
indiscriminately dumped.
Sterilize —
Fred Donathan, manager of
Bahamas Waste’s medica;
waste facility, said: “We can
autoclave or sterilize up to’
1,200 Ibs of waste a day and
incinerate up to 1,000 Ibs in six
hour cycles. We can also
‘process 2,000 Ibs of pathologi-
cal and chemotherapy waste in
a day, all in a safe:and envi-

Don’t ‘waste’
Foundations
‘advantage’
FROM page 1B
Mr Paton said it would be “a
shame to waste that advan-
tageâ€, especially if Jersey
moved forward with its own
legislation.
_ Foundations are essentially
seen as the civil law equivalent
of 4 trust, being used for objec-
tives such as estate planning
and asset protection, and are
popular with clients from civil
law countries in regions such
as Europe and Latin America.
They also allow the founder
to have slightly more control
over the assets in a Founda-
tio, as compared to the settlor
of a trust.
Entity
Mr Paton yesterday told The
Tribune that because a Foun-
dation was a legal entity, unlike
a trust that was based on rela-.
tionships, and where title to the
assets had to be given away,
FROM page 1B
clients were often much more
comfortable with Foundations.
In addition, because a Foun-
dation was a legal entity that
held the assets, Mr Paton said
this “mitigated†against the lia-
bility trustees often found
themselves burdened with. In
addition, the environment fac-
ing trustees was becoming
increasingly litigious.
Mr Paton added: “I think
that once we’re able to explain
our Foundations regime to
clients, and once they get com-
fortable with it, there’s a lot of
potential there.â€
He will be the only Bahami-
an speaker at the 17th annual
International Trust and Tax
Planning Summit, which will
be held on October 26 in Mia-
mi, Florida.
Mr Paton will be speaking
~ on the topic Foundations — The
Next Generation of Trusts?, and
his presentation will focus on
the duties and liabilities of offi-
cers and Foundation council
members and rights to infor-
mation.
“I have spent considerable
time analysing the Foundation
legislation and I am now a big
fan of the Bahamian Founda-
tion. Hopefully, we can interest
our institutional clients and
prospective clients to utilise
Bahamian Foundations in their
private client structures. We
have our suite of documenta-
tion ready to go and I look for-
ward to rolling out Bahamian
Foundations to our contactsâ€
added Mr Paton.
Executives
He said the Foundations
gave Bahamian financial insti-
tutions and executives “a good
story to go out there with†and
speak to clients and interme-
diary contacts.
In addition, the Bahamas
was also able to “leverage offâ€
its existing strengths in private
client business and wealth man-
agement to help sell the Foun-
dation.

Regulatory transparency was also a key con-
sideration.
giver ‘anid development should not be hindered
for'lack of expertise and policing capability,
which can be hired under the umbrella of the
regulator and funded by the developer.â€
Supportive
Mr’ Bethel added that a “supportive†immi-
gration policy was needed if the Bahamas was to
attract and retain foreign direct investment, but
there was too much “difficulty and inconsisten-
cy†in processing and considering work permits
Investors
And while technology, communications and
infrastructure were all important in attracting
investors to the Bahamas, Mr Bethel warned:
“We must not lose sight of the cost factor of
each of these components. If all of these com-
ponents are present but at a prohibitive or non-
competitive price, the investor will neither come
nor stay. We cannot price ourselves out of the
market, whether in the cost of utilities or labour.â€

lf SOFTBALL
By BRENT STUBBS
Senior Sports Reporter
THE Electro Telecom
Wildcats tightened their
stranglehold of the New
Providence Softball Associa-
tion's ladies softball title on
Tuesday night at the
Churchill Tener Knowles
National Softball Stadium
with a hard fought 10-9 vic-
tory over the DHL Brack-
ettes,
"It was a tough one tonight.
We had to play really, really
hard, but, no doubt, we knew
that we were going to win,"
said Wildcats' catcher Dor-
nette Edwards. "Mary was
pitching very good tonight
and our defence was excel-
lent. All we had to do was
win tonight and go home."
Ace Mary ‘Cruise’ Edge-
combe pitched another fan-
tastic game, picking up the
win for her fourth straight vic-
tory as Electro Telecom
swept DHL in four games in
the best-of-seven champi-
onship series.
Edgecombe, one of the
Championship winners
to represent the NPSA
leading candidates for the
Most Valuable Player award,
also helped her cause with a
2-for-5 night, driving in a run,
which turned out to be the
game's winner in the top of
the seventh.
Scoring
Edwards finished with a 2-
‘for-4 night, driving in three
and scoring twice. Hyacinth
Farrington was 3-for-5 with
three runs and Chryshan Per-
centie chipped in with a 2-
for-5 production with a pair
of RBIS.
"We knew that they could-
n't beat us," said Wildcats’
right-fielder Jackie 'Lil Stunt'
Moxey. "They scored six runs
in the early innings, but they
didn't have any defence and
we just took advantage of the
situation." ;
=Copyrig
The Wildcats will now go
on to represent the NPSA at
the Bahamas Softball Feder-
ation's National Round
Robin Tournament that starts
next weekend at the stadium,
but Moxey said they're not
concerned about their arch-
rivals from Grand Bahama.
"We're waiting on
Andros," she insisted. "We're
not interested in Grand
Bahama."
Andros is the newest asso-
ciation in the BSF and pos-
sess some young talent that
have made their presence felt.
Grand Bahama, however, are
normally the opponents that
the Wildcats or _ the
New Providence champions
face.
The other island champi-
ons are expected to come
from Exuma, Abaco and
Long Island. The only island
that will not be represented is
re?
Eleuthera.
But Wildcats' coaches
Anthony Bullard and Jack
Davis said it doesn't matter
who they face. After beating
the Brackettes, they feel they
have clinched another nation-
al title in the process.
Settle
"When we were down, we
just had to settle down and
get back into the game,"
Bullard reflected. "Once we
did that, we knew that we had
the team to come back and
win. We were the best team
out there."
Davis, who came to the
game with a sprained neck,
said that he always knew that,
at the game of the game, the
Wildcats would be the "last
team standingâ€.
“Like I told you at the start
of the season, we knew it was
going to be four straight and
that is what we did."
The Brackettes, whose ace
- Ernestine Butler-Stubbs has
now officially retired after a
long career in the league,
fought right to the end. But
their combination of youth
and experience couldn't get
the job done.
Veteran shortstop Zella
Symonette and rookie first
sacker Krystal Delancy were
both 2-for-4 with a run scored
in the loss.
"The rookies played excel-
lent; but there were one or
two miscues and the umpires
really didn't do justice for us.
They just finished killing us,"
said Symonette, referring in
particular to a critical call in
the sixth inning with the score
tied at 9-9.
In the men's feature con-
test, which was marred by the
second inning ejection of TBS
Truckers’ left fielder Philip
Culmer and manager Perry .
Seymour, the Electro Tele-
com Dorcy Park Boyz went
on to win 5-0 as Edney 'the
Heat' Bethel picked up the
win on the mound.
The Dorcy Park Boyz and —
_ the Truckers will be back in
action tonight as the series
continues in the NPSA's
quest to determine who will
join the Wildcats in the BSF
nationals.

SOFTBALL _ -
By BRENT STUBBS
Senior Sports Reporter
FOR Emestine Butler-Stubbs, it's
been a long road, but the end has
finally come.
One of the biggest names in wom-
en's softball in the country, Butler-
Stubbs has to decided to hang up
her gloves for good after her DHL:
Brackettes were swept 4-0 by the
Electro Telecom Wildcats in a hard
fought best-of-seven championship
series that closed out on Tuesday
night at the Churchill Tener
Knowles National Softball Stadium.
"I promised my team that I will
play until I'm 50," said Butler-
Stubbs, who has now reached the
half century mark. "I won't be back
to pitch, but I will ‘stay around and
help my team out with pitching."
Having played since 1967,.But-
ler-Stubbs said it's been a long 38-
year-career that she enjoyed, hav-
ing started participating in the fast
pitch night league while still in high
school.
As one of the front line pitchers
on the national team during that
time, Butler-Stubbs said she wants to
ensure that the skills she learned
from her manager, Bobby ‘Baylor’
Fernander, as well as the late Colyn
‘Josey Whales’ Russell and Charlie
Mortimer, is passed on to the
younger players, many of whom are
now part of the Brackettes' team.
"This year is my final year," said
Butler-Stubbs, who got on the
microphone at the stadium and
thanked the public for supporting
her, the Brackettes and the ladies'
Butler-Stubbs
calls ita day _
fast-pitch league over the years.
As a member of the coaching
staff, Butler-Stubbs said even if she's
asked to come in and close the door
on the mound or pinch hit in a key
situation, don't expect to see her
back on the field because she's def-
initely done.
And, even though her Brackettes'
team-mates didn't help her close out
her career with a victory over the
Wildcats and possibly one more trip
to the Bahamas Softball Federa-
tion's National Round Robin Tour-
nament, Butler-Stubbs said she has
no regrets.
Thank
"T would have liked to go out with
‘a win, but I must still thank my team
for bringing us this far into the cham-
pionship this year," she insisted. "We
haven't done iit since we won the -
championship back in the 1990s.
"But I must still thank my team.
I'm happy."
Butler-Stubbs started playing
when the game was played on Clif-
ford Park under Dr. Norman Gay.
When the game moved to the Gov-
ernment Ground, Butler-Stubbs was
there. She was also there for the
transition to the JFK Drive Park.
After moving to Grand Bahama
where she played for a couple of
years, Butler-Stubbs returned and
was part of the league which made
the last move to the Churchill Tener
Knowles National Softball Stadium.
"T played with the Appleton Stars
and even the Swingers, but I think I
enjoyed the most fun playing with
MIAMI HERALD SPORTS
the Brackettes and coach Baylor
Fernander," she summed up. "I'm
just happy:that I ended up with him
and now [ hope to stick around and
-help out the younger girls."
Butler-Stubbs was one of the
longest active pitchers in the league.
She and Linda Ford started playing
around the same time, but
Ford has retired and is now working
with the Whirlpool Eagles,
one of the youngest teams in the
eseaaye.
- Call for all sports to have the
same support as track and field
@ By KELSIE JOHNSON
Junior Sports Reporter
ATHLETES from various sporting disciplines are
calling on the government to give them the same sup-
port as track and field athletes in their bid to make it on
the world level.
A letter to The Tribune claims acuolides and gifts
given to track and field athletes had athletes from
other sporting disciplines wondering why that particular
sport is receiving all the recognition.
The letter, written by Nardo Dean, a local body-
builder. who has competed on both the international
and local scene, said attention given to track and field
athletes leaves other sporting disciplines feeling left out.
The letter further stated that the criteria for receiving
government assistance and public recognition is very
strict.
- The Tribune contacted Minister of Youth, Sports
and Culture Neville Wisdom about the claims being
made in the letter, but he said his ministry tried to
treat every sporting federation with the same level of
respect, assisting in every possible way.
He admitted that the criteria for receiving subven-
tions is set high, and the policy set in place allows his
ministry to only give subventions to athletes who have
finished up in the top eight positions at either the
World or Olympic Games level.
Confirm
Wisdom also went on to confirm that there is no pol-
icy set in place for teams or individuals who have
excelled on the regional level, despite their sport.
He said: “There are some policies in place that need
to be changed in terms of teams receiving fundings and
to suit both teams and the individual. We have a group
in place that advises the government, but the proper
procedure for an athlete to receive subvention should
always go through the federation. It is the federation’s
responsibility to bring it to the ministry. :
“Thave asked the advisers committee to review the
policy because it speaks to standards some sports don’t
meet. But I am particularly concerned with the devel-
opment, having the capacity.to provide funding for
development, because without development how can
someone be elite?
“But there is a process that needs to be followed.
Quite often we have individuals coming in who need to
be referred to the federations.â€
According to Dean, the achievements of all ath-
letes and federations should be recognised. He said the
glory given to track and field is a misleading effort, one
the government necds to correct.
He said that this notion is being supported by several
well-known Bahamian athletes, this being the reason
for him to write such a letter.
In the letter, headed ‘Equality for all Athletes’,
Dean states: “I am writing on behalf of all the other
athletes who have represented the Bahamas interna-
tionally for years and have never been given any finan-
cial rewards, honours, motorcades, houses, cars, award
banquets, posters in a roundabout or on the airport
wall, property, trips around the Bahamian Islands,
special appearances or monthly stipends.â€
‘Stages
As he made special note. to the different stages
every sport goes through to qualify to be able to com-
pete on the highest level, Dean reminded the public
and government that only certain sports compete on
the Olympic level.
“There needs to be some type of standard put in
place for all athletes and teams that are at equal levels
of achievement according to that sport and its highest
international game or championship,†added Dean.
“For some sports it may be a World Cup, Central
American Games, Pan Am Championships or some
other regional or international championship or tour-
nament.
“A gold, silver or bronze achieved by track and
- field athletes are no more than the sweat, financial
sacrifice, mental hardship and tears that other ath-
letes go through to achieve their medals.
“Some people may say that we are jealous or just
want money. Well, the drive to win comes from the
heart first because no-one is out there with you 4am in
the morning running or 7pm trying to train after work-
ing a 9-to-5 job, just to keep up with your interna-
tional peers, many of whom have been given athletic
stipends to assist with financial obligations allowing
them to train more at ease.’
But Wisdom said: “When it comes to team sports
you might have one or two individuals who are deserv-
ing but what about the other athletes on the team?
These are the things we are most worried about.
“But since I’ve been minister I have worked close-
ly with all the disciplines. In fact, the celebrations a
team will receive for reaching the world or Olympic
level will not be the same for a team that has excelled
on the regional level.
“You just can’t compare those achievements. It’s not
like we don’t want to celebrate the tepional achieve-
ment.
“When a team is able to make it on the regional lev-
elit is an accomplishment. We recognise those accom-
plishments and we as a government try to extend a
hand to assist them in getting to the other level. .
Wisdom also expressed regret for "! ‘atland
baseball athletes, who are no longer able to conipete at
the Olympic Games.

lm By YOLANDA DELEVEAUX
ishop Hulan Hanna,
associate pastor of the
Church of God of
Prophecy, East Street,
yesterday called on the
church to legitimise its presence in
the community by cutting through the
rhetoric that is often a to’
Bahamian society.
He further challenged the church
to solidify its position as social agent of
change, and as a lobbying constituen-
cy that has the ear of the country's
political leaders to compel the gov-
ernment to action when deemed nec-
essary.
In the wake of several headline
grabbing incidents, involving strip
clubs, partially nude dances and issues
of homosexuality and lesbianism, that
might cause some to believe that the
church in the Bahamas is under attack.
Bishop Hanna said there are times
when events occur in a society along
the lines .of divine providence. "After
Jesus said to his disciples go out and
preach the gospel, when he died it
was business as usual, but after they
were persecuted and sought after vio-
lently, they fled and propagated the
gospel."
Bishop Hanna, who also serves as’
chief superintendent in the Royal
Bahamas Police Force, said the church
has already taken on the role of lob-
byist, although it does not always pub-
licise its efforts.
He said the corporate body has
impacted the community more than
the average person would know and
he noted further that people do not
appreciate fully what the church is
about: "They do their alms in secret. .
They do not necessarily do their work
openly."
There is more that the church can
do when the country is faced with
moral issues or ethical dilemmas, he
said. When the rhetorical outbursts
are finished the church must then
come forward and make concrete sug-
gestions to positively impact the situ-
ation.
"The church is not an abstract enti- _
ty, but’is filled with people, so the
thing that causes the moral outrage
in the community would cause moral
outrage in the church. Within its
ranks, the church has professional
people, lawyers and others, who have
their ears to the community, so the
church can articulate its position in
such a way as to compel politicians to
move."
Again referring to the boisterous
rhetoric often heard in the "social
marketplace", Bishop Hanna said the
church is a powerful lobby group that
can put its position forward critically.
He said that the body has the.masses,
the influence and the wherewithal to
get its message across.
The church has a captive audience
every Sunday in its congregation, he
said, but ‘he is not certain that the
body is acutely aware of the phenom-
enal strength it has that can be
brought to bear on social, economic
and political issues.
He said that when the church realis-
es that it can be a more dynamic force
in the community, then it will make
greater strides in its fight for change.
"There are individual churches that
are making their voices heard, that

Annual banquet to pay tribute to
outstanding Anglican Church Men
ry By CLAYTON CURTIS
‘THE Anglican Church planning com-
‘ mittee is in the process of fine tuning the
details for the 5th annual Recognition ‘Ban-
quet sponsored by the Diocesan Council of
the Anglican Church Men(ACM). ~
In recent years, the ACM Council has
sought to pay tribute to outstanding men
throughout the diocese of the Bahamas .
and the Turks and Caicos Islands.
Quite often, it is the negative aspect of a .
man’s character that receives high public
exposure in our society and this is coun-
terproductive to building a healthy com-
munity environment.
The ACM is seeking to propagate a pos-
itive image that our youth would want to
emulate. The annual banquet has proven
to be a very effective way of publicly
acknowledging the work and contributions
that were made by men in the parishes
within the diocese. Each congregation was
invited to identify one outstanding man
and nominate him for this prestigious
award.
Our islands and communities are faced
_ With a diverse array of challenges and
many feel that now is the time for men to
move to the forefront. By doing so, they
will become more effective leaders in the
home, church and the community, and also
provide positive role models and mentors
for our youth.
The objectives of the ACM are three-
fold:
® To give greater glory to God through
worship, fellowship, study, service and giv-
ing;
@ To enable others to see Christ in them
through self disciplined lives and daily wit-
ness;
¢ To assist the clergy and the parish by
giving of their time, talent and treasure.
The men who will be honoured during
the Sth Annual Recognition Banquet have
come from diverse backgrounds and re
resent a cross-section of entrepreneurs,
civil servants, the private sector, along with
civic and community leaders.
The common ‘thread that binds all of
them together is a sense of loyalty, dedi-
cation and commitment to their God ane
their church.
This year Bishop Michael Eldon will ie
honored for 50 years of service to the
Anglican community and to the Anglican
- Church Men’s organisation, which was
formed under his leadership.
Some of them may be considered veter-
ans who have been toiling in the trenches’
from the Bahamas' days as a British pro-
tectorate. Back then, the ordained min-
istry was limited to predominately expa-
triate priests who were assigned to urban
parishes. During those years it was the
work and efforts of the Catechisms who
kept the doors of the church open in the
rural areas of our Commonwealth.
Other honourees will reflect the vibrant
and proud spirit that being an indepen-
dent Bahamas has created. This is mani-

‘Do unto others
as you would have
them do unto you’
s By aEoeN MIECER
THE aiord of: God i is: eat
in every sense of the word.
Please do not understand
me to be an unbeliever. It is
just that Iam stunned when
the word of God manifests
itself like cars on the road.
I realize that people are
the same no matter where
you go. If you want to be
treated in a certain way, you —
have to first treat people in
the manner you want to be
treated. Like I always say,
there is no such thing as "do
as I say and not as I do."
‘You can not expect the roy-
al treatment if you treat peo-
ple like a "potcake". It just
won't happened.
The bible tells us that
whatever you sow you will
reap. I always come into
contact with people who sew
no seeds but want fruit and
expect it in abundance.
Those persons deceive
themselves. It is like wanting
a reward when you did no
work to receive the reward.
For example, if I desire to
have friends and do not
show myself to be friendly,
no one will befriend me sim-
ply because I am unap-
proachable and an extreme
effort will have to be made
to break down the walls that
Thave put up.
Very seldom do you find
people who can see
untapped potential. Not
everyone will rise to the
occasion in breaking down
barriers to make a friend.
Unfortunately, not many
people understand life and
the challenges that you go
through.
If you had many hurts in
your life by circumstances,
@ ALLISON MILLER
“I realize that
people are
the same no
matter where
you go. If you
want to be
treated ina
certain way,
you have to
first treat
people in the
manner you
want to be
treated.â€
—A Miller
situations or relationships, :
you become blinded and are
not ‘able to see that*you
should, ask for your, need.
No man is an island and, |
agreed or not, we all need
each other. The bible says
that we are fitly joined
together and compacted by
that which every joint sup-
plieth.
In some cases however,
one party is expected to do
all the work, that will not —
work. If you want something
you have to first be a par-
taker, as the bible says in the
book of Timothy. So if you
want friends, you have to
show yourself friendly. If
you want to have a lot you
have to give a lot. It is a
principle of life. Matthew 7
tells us that the same mea-
sure that you mete will be
measured back to you.
The truth of the matter is
that we want'so much for
ourselves, but we do not |}
want to work for it. It should
just drop in our laps. Then
on the flip side 'self' is the
only thing that some of us
are concerned with, and that
has to change.
The word of God says that
we are to give not thought to
food or drink or what
clothes we will wear. God
will take care of His own
and even the unjust. He
gives grace and mercy to. I
said all of that to say, when
you want something done
you have do it first to set the
‘example. Then and only
then will people be con- {
vinced in what you are try-
ing to accomplish.
Bottom line: When you
desire something you have. -
to prove yourself worthy by |
working for it.

was at a meeting of
business executives in
Montego Bay recent-
ly, during which I
gave a presentation
on “Ethics after Enronâ€.
It was fascinating to witness
the extraordinary focus par-
ticipants brought to realising
their company's projections.
What was no less so was hear-
ing comments that had noth-
ing to do immediately with
either business or ethics.
At one-point, for instance,
the executives were remind-
ed by a colleague to be careful
not to neglect the inner life.
Soft issues like the inner life
were, he said, even more
important than hard issues
like strategies and data.
I was not sure then (as now)
how observations like this fit-
ted in with the pre-eminence
of the bottom line, but the
observation reflects part of a
growing contemporary move-
ment in business to incorpo-
rate spirituality into the work-
place.
Such an incorporation must
mean more than bringing a
different attitude to work. If
work can feel meaningless,
boring, oppressive, and so on,
it's not enough that the person
brings a new attitude to it. A
changed attitude to work is
not the same as a spirituality
of work. Work itself does not

change, and that is what needs
to be looked at.
What is work? How’does
one define it? Is work a nec-
essary evil or a humanising
activity? What is the relation
of work to play? What are
alienating and non-alienating
features of work? What does
an integrated spirituality of
work look like?
History
For most of history, the
dominant understanding of
work has been negative. The
Greeks and Romans dis-
dained it in favour of a life of
leisure. Such a life they
thought worthier of human
beings. Work was something
done by slaves.
Hence the adjective servile.
Servile did not refer to certain
kinds of work. «

of work’
servile thing. The Romans
thought the same. To work or
to engage in business was to
be deprived of leisure. The
Latin word for leisure was
otium ; the word for business
was neg otium , that is to say,
no leisure.
This negative understand-
ing was not exclusivé. There
was a minor tradition that
spoke of work in terms of cre-
ativity. Even so, one never got
as far'as seeing work in terms
of self-development, cultural
development, or world devel-
opment. These positive under-
standings have all been fairly
recent.
A brief look at the language
used to describe work rein-
‘forces its negative legacy.
Greek gave us ponos, which
means something tiring as well
as unfulfilling.
In the New Testament,
work as ponos means toil, tra-
‘vail, misery, and anguish.
From the same root came the
Latin poena, which means
penalty or sorrow. From both
Latin and Greek you can see
the derivation of work as.pain.
A second Latin word, labor,
has the meaning of something
unpleasant under which one
staggers. —
French gives us travail,
which is derived from the
Latin tripalus, which desig-
nated an instrument used to
hold fast oxen or horses while
they were being fitted with
shoes. Work is thus a form of
constraint, or something one is
stuck to.
German gives us arbeit,
which connotes misery, dis-
tress, and grief.
English gives us labour ,
directly from the Latin, mean-
ing bodily and mental toil,
exertion, or the pains of child-
' birth.
It's clear from this short sur-
vey that it is the oppressive |
. aspects of work that have
dominated the concept.
It's not easy to define work.
One way is to say that it is
paid employment, i.e. if.one
gets paid for what one does, it
is work. An actor, on the oth-
er hand, may get paid for what
he/she enjoys doing. It's not
work at all, but self-expres-
sion.

WHAT have your birth-
days been like over the past
" years? Mine was this week
and so it has caused me to
reflect on the goodness, of
God, the gift of life and the
lessons we learn from expe-
rience. My forty second
birthday was one that I can
never forget.
All night long I laboured
to prepare the workshop on
prayer “Practicing the Pres-
ence of Godâ€. In two days
time, I would travel to
Grand Bahama to present a
two-hour workshop. I gath-
ered scripture passages,
prayer exercises, journaling
excerpts, hymns, personal
experiences, researched
quotes on one diskette until
I was finally finished at 2 am. °
I fell into the deep sleep of
the exhausted, but not for
long.
My father (age 89) shout-
ed my name. There was an
orange glow through the top
of the shutters, and frantic
. banging on the front door.
The house next door was on
fire.
The houses were so Siose
that fora moment, I thought
it was our own. _
Prayerfully, carefully, with
measured haste, I awakened
_our eight year old son who.
had been sleeping beside me
while his daddy was away.
“Get Carlos to safety then
go back for your father,†the
Spirit whispered.

I reached for my handbag *
and the box of personal

destroyed.
I watched from across the
street, secure on God’s lap,
“practicing the presence.â€
There was nothing else to be
done. My precious work-
shop material was lost but
the blessing of the experi-
ence was my birthday gift
from God.
It was faith that made St.
Paul sing while imprisoned,
writing his letters with such
passion. He knew that in the
‘midst of adversity there
often comes the power of
the Presence, the peace of
the Presence, the promise of
the Presence to remain pre-
sent.
Daniel in the lion’s den,
the Hebrew boys in the fiery
furnace, Mary Magdalene at
the door of the tomb, obliv-
ious that the gardener is
really her Lord, they all dis-
cover that they are not aban-
doned or forsaken, that God
does not leave them alone.
. This is no mystical
_ moment reserved for a few.
é It is the hope of heaven that
we can taste on earth. It is
the prayer to “pray without
ceasing†that makes us con-
scious at times, of a presence
“without ceasingâ€.
One. circumstance or
another may cause the pres-
ence of the Lord to seem
diminished, but the “faith
fact†still remains that noth-
ing separates us from God’s
love.
Our faith feelings may be
challenged -to believe that
what we cannot feel does - “
aifot-exist,butithere is an :
abiding truth about God that |
the Apostle Paul came to
know: “For Iam convinced .
that neither death, nor life,
nor angels, nor rulers, nor
things present, nor things to
come, nor powers, nor
height, nor depth, nor any-
thing else in all creation, will
be able to separate us from
‘the love of God in Christ

Faith; Judea Worship Centre; and East
Street Gospel Chapel, first joined with
BFMI in June to conduct a similar rally
at the Windsor Park.
Despite the fact that a heavy downpour
of rain delayed the event, the community
members in Mason's Addition turned out
» to the rally on their community park. Chil-
dren enjoyed face painting and the give-
aways of school bags, pencils and note-
books that were donated.
And in the spirit of bringing "the mes-
sage of hope and love" to the community
‘through the gospel, Operation Communi-
‘ty Touch also brought a presentation of
drama, music and dance to the communi- :
ty, as well as testimonies from the local
churches and groups such as the original
gospel Visionaires, and the Shell Saxon
Superstars. Also on hand was BFMI's
choir, its youth drama team, and Total
Youth Church - the youth arm of BFMI.
The Saxons, on their home soil, ended the
celebration with a Junkanoo rush-out.
Supplies
Myles Munroe, senior pastor of BFMI,
who was at the Mason's Addition rally,
personally handed out school bags and
supplies to the children. He said that the
"vision" of the outreach was to simply
touch the people.
‘Pressure
"There is no pressure, no fear, or danger
here. Young kids are running around and
having a good time. Teenagers are talk-
- ing to one another. Adults are sitting down
and enjoying music. I wanted Mason's
Addition to know that the churches are
: not behind walls. We are-here to-touchâ„¢
them in their homes. This park, these:are
their walls that they have built, and so we
came here to touch them within their
walls," he was quoted as saying in a press
release from the programme.
Taking the message of the church out-
side of it's walls and into the streets, was
Eric Fox, Teen Challenge leader, who
encouraged young persons in that com-
munity to "rise above their circumstances
and follow their dreams". Mr Fox, who
said that at one point in his life he lived in
poverty, and experienced a life of drug
use, shared his testimony. He is a testa-
ment to the fact that anybody can change
_ for the better.
He noted that his dream of seeing his life
change and even his children be successful
is now a reality because of God's inter-
vention, and some work on his part. "I
realized to be successful I have to line
myself up with the Word of God. I cried
out, and God answered my prayer. Today,
Ihave already been to the University of the
West Indies and I graduated with hon-
ours."
As the perfect end to the night, several.
‘members of the crowd came forward to’
make a commitment to change their lives
"for the better".
Speaking of the crowd’ s response, Evan-.
gelist J.Alfred Farrington of the Remnant’
Tabernacle of Praise, Carmichael and
Golden Isles Road, said: "When you have"
one or two persons coming to the knowl-
edge of Christ, that's a plus. We know that
our job is not to convert people, but. to.
tell them about Jesus, and let the- Holy-
Spirit do His work. But we know that the
angels in heaven rejoiced."
Pastor Wesley Thompson of Mount’
Pleasant Green Baptist Church, whose:
East and Quackoo Street church is just
blocks away from Mason's Addition, said’
that the outreach was an "awesome expres-
sion of Christ's love since the churches:
crossed denominational barriers" to spread
a united message of love. oe
Success
Though the rally on Mason's Addition.
park was a success, Operation Communi-
ty Touch is not done just yet. The group.

hand, doing forced labour, is
employed by the state with-
out getting paid, though what
he does is certainly work.
What housewives do, since
they are not paid, would not
count as work, though from
time immemorial it has been
called housework.
Another way of defining
‘work is in terms of the expen-
diture of energy , or the appli-
cation of effort. This defini-
tion has some point, though it
could also be applied to play
and recreation.
Another way is to say that
work is what one produces or
forms with effort. Focus here
is on the finished product,
though many forms of work.
have no such result — what the
delivery man or the mail man
does, for instance.
Or we can look at work in
terms of the manner or way
in which an object is worked.
We look both at the final
object and the way in which
it was produced. When one
praises another with the
expression: “What a lovely
piece of work†or “what a fine
jobâ€, the meaning embraces
both the doing of the thing
(doing it well) and the doer.
Pope John Paul II would
develop this aspect of the spir-
ituality of work at great length
in his famous encyclical On
Human Work.
A compelling relation exists.
between work and play. Play
has more and more become
. work (professional sports), so:
that the boundaries of both
collapse into each other.
But play has its own value.
It is a manifestation of the
freedom of the spirit, a freeing
of the self from the necessi-
ties of nature. Play is self-real-
isation through free self-
expression.
Work at its best is also self-
expression in the deep human
sense. When alienating ele-
ments between work and the
self are removed, the self can
see itself finely and humanly
expressed in work. Work and
play are thus, at any rate, two
sides of the same coin.

This is an interesting time as we stand at the
crossroads of a number of moral and ethical
