		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve decided to take a break from writing, get off my butt and get some other action going. Jamaica is looking at an election in three years, with one of two deadbeat political parties expected to again take us on that ride to nowhere. I hear some calling for boycotting elections, but I think that&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bruce Golding has done it again. He has once more left egg on the faces of those who trusted him. His private sector power base must be apoplectic by now in disbelief or rage after his most recent disclosure regarding the embarrassingly mangled Manatt business and the whole sorry Christopher &#8216;Dudus&#8217; Coke extradition affair.

		<description><![CDATA[Televangelist Pat Robertson&#8217;s demented claim that Haiti&#8217;s disastrous earthquake was the result of a pact the Haitian slaves signed with the devil to win their freedom has probably gained more converts to atheism and agnosticism than have the efforts of Dawkins, Hitchens and the rest of the &#8221;new atheists&#8221; vanguard together. In the midst of intense grieving for a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is regrettable that the Gleaner has again found it fit to publish the so-called &#8220;prophetic utterances&#8221; of Steve Lyston and his unstoppable band of seers who insist they speak on behalf of the Almighty. It made the &#8221;News&#8221; again this year, but is it really news, and is it really necessary? When you read through these predictions, you [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A friend urged me to be thankful for Bruce Golding and stop beating up on his pandering to popular opinion and his plodding, indecisive approach to solving the nation&#8217;s critical problems. She said if it wasn&#8217;t for Bruce and his &#8220;honourable&#8221; team, Jamaica would still be under the three-inch-heel pumps of the Most Honourable and the plague [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jamaica&#8217;s Prime Minister Bruce Golding needs to do some dusting of his cabinet. But only after he&#8217;s dusted himself off. The abundance of divisive nonsense-statements that he and his band of ministers seem to come up with is drawing more than ribaldry from a nervous and watchful public. Following his diagnosis of &#8220;termites&#8221; in the [...]]]></description>

The prosperity gospel, aka the miracle-for-money theology, [...]]]></description>

It seems like quite a few have made it their new year’s resolution to fleece as many of the unwitting as possible. My email inbox has been inundated with notifications of winning sweepstakes in competitions I never even entered. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The pre-eminent French language society L&#8217;Académie Française is stepping up its activity. Its barely concealed contempt for English language intrusion into the beloved français is legendary, but there are some signs that the protective veneer is wearing thin. Through the medium of the internet and the arena of business, English continues to relentlessly chip away [...]]]></description>
