I watched his fantastic performance in winning the 100m at the World Championships in Berlin. It was a smooth, spectacular stride to victory in setting a new world record of 9.58 seconds. Usain Bolt is the fastest man the world has ever seen. He is not just

Is Omar Davies just a debater? Otherwise, what credibility would he have taken to a debate with Bruce? He is an economic dunce and the sooner the People's National Party check his performance, the higher its chances of getting back into power.
Ian Boyne needs to read Claude Clarke's article in The Sunday Gleaner of August 16, the same medium in which Boyne called for a debate on the economy between Prime Minister Bruce Golding and Davies, the shadow minister of finance.

Did you know that it is now becoming a common thing for lawmen to be discharging their weapons in dances/bars? Then their friends or the proprietors pick up the spent shells. What a country with double standards!

If your minister of transportation needs to live in a $35m house then he should provide it for himself .I think taxpayers would be more satisfied souls all politicians and others who qualify for housing be given a rental or lease allowance which they can apply to the standard they desire to live. A house valued at $35m should attract an annual rental of minimum $3m.

I am the head of the World Anti-doping Agency's accredited laboratory in Montreal. Delano Franklyn, in a Sunday Gleaner article on August 17, related to the case involving the five Jamaican athletes charged with using a banned substance, incorrectly reported and discussed our laboratory work when dealing with the B-sample analysis. Accusing without evidence is not what is expected from an attorney-at-law.
