Cruising through menopause
The Talk. It's a phrase that can put a genuinely ice cold fear into the hearts of parents of young adolescents around the globe. From the youthful perspective, it equates to the ephemeral fountain of youth - that ultimate knowledge containing all the world's deepest, darkest secrets. The thought of attaining this knowledge is the only thing (we think) we'll need to know about being an adult. We are so wrong. At 13 (yes, I certainly hope you 'talk' with your child sooner than that), all we care about is 1) how to be attractive to the opposite sex without being a dork and 2) getting rid of pimples and underarm perspiration. I think there should be a talk for me and all of my sisters embarking on that weird cruise ship we call menopause. We already have a code word for it, "the change." How freakin' ambiguous is that? Change doesn't even begin to touch the evolutionary acrobatics women go through at this juncture.
Church Sports Council formed
ONE OF THE TEAMS Above, players from Freeport Bible Church pose for this photo during half-time in their game against Community Holiness Church. Freeport Bible loss the game 38-26. These are two of the teams that are currently playing in the first event organised by the GB Church Sports Council. The Tournament will continue on Saturday at the Eight Mile Rock Gymnasium.
The idea is not new, but one that has died a slow death down through the years.
A sporting body within the Church environment is something that many presidents of various sporting Associations have talked about; and even a topic that had been brought up by President of the Grand Bahama Christian Council, when he first took office years ago.
Now, once again, the idea has popped up, like a Jack in the Box, once the right tune is played.
The Tournament: Deep Sea Fishing Never had So Much at Stake
Fishing has always been a favorite pastime of Americans. In fact, nearly twice as many people fish than play golf. According to the U.S. Wildlife Service Report, 44 million people over the age of six go fishing. Thats one out of every five Americans.Like many people living near the water, Kenneth Kirkeby grew up fishing and working on boats. His father was a fanatical fisherman who took him on one adventure after another. I remember my father telling me a story about hooking a blue marlin that charged the boat and stuck a few inches of his bill in the transom. It broke off and stayed in! Crazy things always happened on the water, said Kirkeby who authored his own tale about fishing, The Tournament.
Whether youre an Old Salt with a room full of mounted catches or if you relish the tales of the big one that got away, The Tournament puts you right in the thick of the action of a deep sea fishing tournament.
