Yourself Is Simply The Greatest Thing That You Can Be!
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

The greatest thing you can be:
By D. Paul Reilly, For The Guardian -
Nassau, Bahamas:



I guess, you're already speculating about what I think the greatest thing you can be is. Some will perhaps think it's that the greatest thing a person can be is a medical doctor, because they assist people in getting rid of their illnesses, thus returning to a state of total health.

Perhaps the more religious people, may feel that being a minister of religion is the greatest thing you can be, thus assisting people from all walks of life to know and understand the importance of focusing on God, and our connection to our spiritual father.

The politically minded will perhaps think that the greatest thing you can be is to be a member of parliament, or better still, to ultimately become prime minister or president of one's country. A whole lot of people, I'm quite sure, will most definitely feel that the greatest thing you can be is a teacher, a person who assists the young people of the world in acquiring the necessary knowledge required in order to succeed in life.

We could go on and on coming up with various occupations, which different people with varying opinions feel are the greatest thing you can be, but my friend, haven't we all overlooked the real answer to the puzzle, so to speak? Yes, I believe we have. In the long run, the greatest thing you can be is simply yourself!

In Joel Osteen's book "Your Best Life Now" in chapter 11 titled "Be Happy With Who You Are" he writes: "Are you being the person God made you to be? Or are you just going around pretending, trying to be what everybody else wants you to be, living up to their expectations and following their dreams for your life?"

I sincerely hope and pray, that those words from Joel Osteen's book have literally woken you up, and that you now realize that far too many people throughout this world of ours, are in fact trying to be, what others want them to be, and not unfortunately what they themselves want to be ... what a tragedy!

My friend, if you wish to be successful and truly happy, you simply must stop trying to copy others, thus blindly following the dictates of those who persistently tell you what you should be. Instead, you need to be exactly what God created you to be, which is yourself.

You are a unique creation of God, and no one — but no one can duplicate you and the special contribution which you — and you alone were put on this earth by God to make to the peoples of the universe. So, stop this very minute trying to be someone else, and just be yourself!

Think about it.

Government Focus On Food Security:
By Kendea Jones -
Nassau, Bahamas:


The government is working feverishly to help Bahamian farmers to produce their own food in the midst of a worldwide food crisis, according to Minister of Agriculture and Marine Resources Larry Cartwright.

Food prices in The Bahamas have already increased significantly over the last few months.

For instance, in Grand Bahama, in February the reported cost for items such as limes/lemons had gone up by 42.5 percent; for apples, 37 percent; butter, 27.6 percent and sweet peppers, 19.2 percent.

In New Providence, prices in February on tangerines were up 9.4 percent; limes/lemons, 7.6 percent and canned milk, 3.6 percent.

Other food items that advanced the consumer price index included, but were not limited to, frozen fruits and juices, dried vegetables, roast beef, tomato paste, lamb, fresh whole chicken and grapes.

The Department of Statistics said the food and beverage group was impacted "tremendously" by rising prices.

Minister Cartwright indicated on Sunday that the government is on the ball.

"We already have some things that were happening towards that end," he said. "We are targeting North Andros right now and we are dividing our plots over there and doing the same thing through Bahamas Agricultural and Industrial Corporation (BAIC) in Eleuthera and Abaco."

Minister Cartwright said in these islands, there is a particular focus being placed on limes.

"In order to alleviate the lime crisis, we are developing 100 acres of land in North Andros and Eleuthera so by the end of this year and early next year, you will see more limes around than you really need," he said.

The minister also said that the government is putting emphasis on starchy foods like cassava and potatoes.

"We are putting more emphasis on these crops because you know with the rice shortages we are going to find ourselves without a lot of starchy foods and so in The Bahamas we grow potatoes and cassava and we are encouraging farmers to produce more of that," Minister Cartwright said.

He said many farmers have already stepped up to the challenge of feeding Bahamians in great numbers.

"In particular, we have pineapples going in Eleuthera, onions in abundance in North Andros, Exumians are now farming again and we are getting all kinds of pleas from them and we are helping them out. There is farming in Cat Island, Grand Bahama and Abaco. We have our challenges but we are doing our best," Minister Cartwright said.

One of the challenges he said was the fact that The Bahamas is an archipelago and so it makes it difficult to transport fresh produce in a short period of time.

"What we produce in Mayguana it’s difficult to get it to New Providence because of our shipping problems and the distance factor and what we produce in Long Island - as near as that is to New Providence by the time we get it there, without refrigeration on the boat, it is difficult to get it to New Providence in a fresh state," Minister Cartwright said.

He said there is a possibility that Bahamians are also able to export. However, he said the government is focusing on making sure that The Bahamas is sustained.

"Our goal is food security," he said. "We are trying to produce food for our own people. But if the farmers have an abundance we can lean in that direction, but the government is not pushing that at this time."

He suggested that the world food crisis would cause The Bahamas problems in accessing traditional food imports.

"As a result of the food crisis, those producing countries are probably going to start holding for themselves and once they begin to that we are going to find that we are going to start having shortages in The Bahamas as far as imports are concerned," Minister Cartwright said.

The cost of food worldwide has climbed 40 percent since 2007, world food experts say.

Rising populations, strong demand from developing countries, increased cultivation of crops for biofuels and increasing floods and droughts have sent food prices soaring across the globe.

According to the United Nations, around 100 million of the world's poorest people who previously did not require help now can not afford to buy food.

Overall, Minister Cartwright said he is optimistic that The Bahamas is going to be able to sustain itself.

"I believe that we are going to be successful in producing much more food this year than last year and years prior to that," he said.

Agent Kolar, Bush’s new hope for destabilizing Cuba
Related to country: Cuba

Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

BY JEAN-GUY ALLARD —Granma International staff writer—

• CAUGHT up in a series of scandals that erased what little credibility it had on the Cuba issue, the Bush administration, which until now trusted that its Cuban-American mercenaries would succeed in destabilizing the country, has placed its hopes in the none-too-clean hands of an astute Czech, a fitting student of its spy services.

Selected and recruited by the CIA in the late 1980s, Petr "Peter" Kolar, ambassador of the Czech Republic in Washington, moved in less than three years from a building maintenance employee and mail clerk to chief researcher at the Institute of Strategic Studies attached to the Ministry of Defense in Prague.

This was thanks to a little push forward by his friend Vaclav Havel, also connected to the U.S. intelligence pipelines.

Kolar began his dizzying ascent after the collapse of the socialist state in the former Czechoslovakia, when his masters sent him, overnight, to Washington to begin a training program for his new tasks, according to his official biography. This training program was at the Woodrow Wilson International Center (WWIC), an institution funded and run by the U.S. government.

What his biography doesn’t say is that the WWIC, attached to the University of Princeton, is as closely tied to the CIA as white on rice. So much so, in fact, that the notorious former CIA director, Allen W. Dulles, bequeathed his personal archives to that institute.

James Billington, director of the WWIC from 1973 to 1988, began his career as Dulles’ assistant and ended as advisor to Ronald Reagan. According Dulles’ declassified documents, a large number of professors from that center also worked as "high level" advisors for U.S. spy agencies.

Lee Hamilton, its current director, has an even darker résumé. A former congressman from the state of Indiana, he was a member of the presidential advisory council for domestic security, secretary of the National Security Study Group for the Department of Defense and… secretary of the CIA advisory council on economic intelligence. Even more serious: he was on the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks, also known as the 9/11 Commission.

What could agent Kolar have studied in Washington, then?

What is certain is that back in Prague, the Havel connection sent him quickly on the way to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, where he would rise from one intrigue to the next at rocket speed until becoming a deputy minister.

Now Washington could reap what it had sowed.

ARRIVES WITH MAFIA FIASCO

On December 2, 2005, Doctor Kolar (he was by now called doctor), presented his credentials to George W. Bush. He knew what the priorities were. He waited until after the New Year’s holiday, and on January 17, 2006, he was in Miami, where he met with some of the most recalcitrant mafia elements.

By May, he was ready to come out as the star of the anti-Cuban show.

In a rather crude move, the conspirators chose the offices of the Center for a Free Cuba, of the notorious CIA agent Frank Calzón, to call a press conference. Kolar had invited a number of diplomats from other former Eastern European socialist countries, in order to launch what he called "an initiative to support the internal opposition in Cuba."

Those accompanying him included Congressman Lincoln Díaz-Balart, son of a government minister under the Fulgencio Batista dictatorship; Caleb McCarry, head of the Bush Plan to annex Cuba; Orlando Gutiérrez Boronat, a terrorist recruited from the Cuban Democratic Directorate; the heavily-subsidized Sylvia Iriondo, of MAR por Cuba; Angel de Fana, of the group Plantados hasta la Libertad y la Democracia, a counterrevolutionary organization of ex-convicts; and Mauricio Claver Carone, director of the U.S.-Cuba Democracy Political Action Committee, which is dedicated to bribing congress members.

Kolar did not suspect at that moment that before the year was over his troop of conspirators would be dispersed by a hurricane: a report in December from the Government Accountability Office (GAO) revealing that USAID officials assigned to Cuba concealed the final destination of $65.4 million in grants from this federal agency that went to their friends in Miami and Washington.

The suspects indicated by the GAO report included two of Kolar’s best supporters: Frank Calzón and Orlando Gutierrez-Boronat, who received millions in subsidies.

The blow was too heavy. Days later, Adolfo Franco, administrator of Latin American funds for the US Agency for International Development, immediately resigned his post… and joined the team of Republican presidential candidate John McCain, who just so happens to be a director of the International Republican Institute (IRI), one of the great beneficiaries of Franco’s generosity.

The scandal in USAID continued over the following months, with more resignations and a police investigation that recently "blew up" Felipe Sixto, Calzón’s right-hand man, and the mastermind of a profitable embezzlement scheme, who has been hiding for a few months as "special" advisor to the president.

Another activity organized by Kolar’s "advisors" a short while ago at the Coral Gables Biltmore Hotel brought to light the new plan for creating subversion in Cuba as imagined by the masterminds in Langley.

Acknowledging Washington’s isolation in its dirty war against the island, Cuban-American Senator Mel Martinez, who was heading up the unusual meeting, emphasized a need for involving "other countries" in their anti-Cuba operation. This was meant to remind Cubans who "have been trained to hate" the U.S. government that the latter "is not their only ally." José Cárdenas, the "interim" director replacing Franco at USAID, said that USAID would soon begin "following the model established by the Eastern European bloc in the 1990s," thus confirming it as the first to benefit.

The mafioso meeting ended with an eloquent piece of nonsense from U.S. Secretary of Commerce Carlos M. Gutiérrez. According to this former multi-million dollar corporate executive, attention must be given to Cuba "as it has been with Tibet and Darfur," thus admitting U.S. intervention in both of those crises.

Meanwhile, the Czech ambassador was sanctioning such absurd instructions, his perspicacious associate Calzón did not waste any time on a useless show. He was waiting at the fittingly-named Dulles Airport in Washington for the next flight to Prague.

He knew that from now on, the Cárdenas substitute would favor the Czech capital for distributing the millions from USAID.

Behind Calzón would follow all of his fellow mercenaries, looking to secure new sources of funding, beginning with Robert Ménard, in a line that also featured Boronat and Iriondo.

Vaclav Havel, for his part, has just inaugurated another organization for "advocating democracy," on April 16 in Brussels, and behind it is the hairy hand of the godfathers of subversion in Cuba… suffice it to say that the coordinator for the "new" program is Czech Kristina Prunerova, of People in Need, a group created in Prague by the CIA and heavily subsidized by the National Endowment for Democracy, another agency attached to U.S. intelligence.

In Miami, various factions that have been feeding for decades from the federal government’s anti-Cuba crusades are now reeling in face of the Kolar Plan, wondering how to link up with that subversive structure that benefits European NGOs and satellites of USAID, NED and other channels.

The GAO audit on USAID’s anti-Cuba activities made headlines with the fancy purchases by the hired "democracy activists" from Miami: cashmere sweaters, Godiva chocolates, Nintendo games and Sony Playstations, supposedly all meant for alleged dissidents.

This is the rotten fruit of the lucubration of Cuban-American congress members Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and Lincoln and Mario Díaz-Balart, Senator Martínez and the ringleaders of the Cuban Liberty Council. Will the USAID’s millions continue to be reaped in Miami?

Bahamas Pharmacies selling tobacco products spark industry debate
Related to country: Bahamas

Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

Pharmacies selling cigarettes ignite industry debate:
By VERNON CLEMENT JONES, Guardian Business Editor -
Nassau, Bahamas:



An apparent growth in the number of drugstores selling cigarettes is sparking debate among pharmacists, many concerned the practice compromises ethical guidelines while providing no real boast to the bottom line.

"About 80 percent of a Bahamian pharmacy's sales are directly from prescription drug," said Crystal Gibson, a local practitioner, "There's no need for pharmacies to get involved with selling something that actually harms the client-customers they are hoping to help."

Her comments come as another two of the country's 50 or more drugstores move to stock and sell tobacco products. They join at least three others scattered across downtown Nassau offering cigarettes and cigars in addition to their core service of dispensing drugs.

Government licensing of the latter does not, in fact, preclude the former. Still, the Bahamian trend runs counter to what's going on in an increasing number of U.S. and Canadian jurisdictions, where regulators have moved to block tobacco sales in pharmacies. Seven out of 10 Canadian provinces have moved to legislate an end to that trade, in just as many cases responding to the pleas of pharmacists as they were anti-smoking groups. Gibson would like to see this country follow that lead.

Some 95 percent of her U.S. counterparts share her point of view. They've been largely won over by research suggesting bans on tobacco in drugstores simply don't impair net income, rather create a level playing field for all pharmacies.

In fact, revenue at most North American drugstores is heavily weighted to the actual sale of prescription drugs, with Gibson and others in the local industry suggesting that's also the case here in The Bahamas.

That phenomenon means this sector is largely insulated from the kind of economic downturn now griping this and other Caribbean countries, pharmacist George Hepburn told Guardian Business this week.

A colleague of his points to the relatively inelastic nature of demand for pharmaceuticals to support the assertion that no matter how high drug prices climb relative to income, Bahamians continue to purchase their medication.

"If things are getting tough for them, as they are for some," he said, "then most people look to cut back in other ways first before cutting out their medications."

That may make it harder to explain why some Bahamian pharmacists are now adding known-carcinogens to their offerings.

Guardian Business calls to two of those drugstore owners/pharmacists were not returned Wednesday.

Hepburn would like to see the government and, indeed, his entire industry engage in a dialogue on the issue, although he argues the choice on whether or not to sell cigarettes must ultimately be left to the individual druggist.

As a U.S. trained and certified pharmacist, he's one of a minority of Bahamian professionals who've actually taken an oath all but forcing them to abstain.

Can the dead be raised by the exercise of faith through prayer?
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

By Rev. J. Emmette Weir, For The Guardian:



The recent incident here in Grand Bahama, in which some misguided but evidently, devout religious folk, sought to achieve the resuscitation (I refuse to dignify such bizarre behaviour with the term "resurrection") of a cadaver up to the eighth day by means of the exercise of faith "through prayer and fasting" certainly requires most careful consideration, and profound theological reflection at this time.

Such a procedure represents a gross misunderstanding of the teaching of the Bible — a dangerous departure from sound Christian theology and the demonstration of a lack of faith, the very virtue it purports to express.

While much has been said by religious leaders on this subject, clearly indicating that it is not in keeping with a proper understanding of the teaching of the church on the raising of those who have died, it would appear that there are still those in our community who are wondering about its biblical and theological validity.

THE BIBLICAL BACKGROUND

The Bible teaches that, generally speaking, the normal span of life is about 70 years. While major advances have been made in medical science, it is still the case that the average span of life, even in the most developed communities, is in the region of 70 to 80 years.

It is often the case, in these advanced stages of this mortal life; the person suffers from a multitude of diseases which gradually sap his/her energy resulting, inevitably in death. This is well brought out in a modern translation of this verse:

"The length of our days is 70 years — or 80, if we have the strength, yet is their but trouble and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and we fly away." (New International Version).

Now, this text is of fundamental importance; for it indicates what the Bible regards as the normal span of life. It is most significant to note that there is no instance in the Bible of a person being raised from the dead at anything near that age.

* Elijah raises the widow's son I Kings 17: 17-24.

* Elisha restores life to the son of the Shunammite — II Kings 4: 18-37.

* The raising of Jairus' daughter — Mk.5:22-43 (CP. Matt.9: i8-26 Lk. 8:49- 56 ).

* The raising of the widow's son at Nain — Lk. 7:11-18.

* The raising of Lazarus — John 11.

* Peter raises Tabitha (Dorcas) from the dead — Acts 9: 36-42.

* The glorious resurrection of our Lord, which is the only such event attested to in all the gospels as well as the epistles — Matt. 28, Mk. 16: 1-8, Lk. 24, John 20 -21, Ch. I Cor. 15, I Pet.

In most of these cases, the persons raised from the dead are very young, three of them being children, two of them young men and the other of a middle-aged lady. It is the consensus of modern Biblical scholarship that Jesus was only 33 years of age at the Resurrection. Moreover, in most cases, the restoration of the person to life occurs very soon after their (physical) death. The exception is that of Lazarus who had been dead four days when Jesus worked the greatest of His miracles. — Jn. 11:

It is germane here, when thinking about prayers for the terminally ill and dead to take note of the action of David. You see, much is said about David's seduction of Bathsheba, the wife of Uriah the Hittite. Not much is known, however, of the manner in which he dealt with the sickness of the first child of that adulterous relationship.

When the child was ill, the king prayed fervently for healing. But when the child died, the king, to the surprise of his servants, dried his tears and stopped praying. When they inquired, he responded with these immortal words, "I will go to him; but he will not return to me". The king accepted the death of the child perhaps as divine judgment upon him for the manner in which he behaved. Concisely, the king prays for the healing of the child while alive, but made no attempt to pray for its restoration after its death.

Upon the basis of the biblical instances cited, two things may be stated as common to them all:

* There is no instance of a person being raised from the dead beyond the age of 50. Not one!

* The longest time span between the death of any individual and being raised from the dead is four days.

It is submitted, therefore, that there is absolutely no biblical warrant whatsoever for attempting to raise an 86-year-old person from the dead after as long a time as eight days!

THE THEOLOGICAL BACKGROUND

It is essential to bear in mind that sin and death are "inextricably bound with each other" in the Bible and Christian theology.

According to the biblical account of creation, humankind was created in the divine image and intended to be immortal. As a result of human transgression, the breaking of the divine prohibition to eat of the fruit of the tree of knowledge, Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden, out of fellowship with God, and became subject to death (Gen. 2-3 ). Death, then, became the ultimate enemy of humankind, bringing about the end of life on earth. All persons were subjected to death.

It is the teaching of scripture that those who believe in Christ as Savior and Lord, share in his victory over sin and death. This is the message of the resurrection, which is proclaimed in the Easter season, and by St. Paul in his epistle to the Romans, "the wages of sin is death: but the gift of God is eternal life".

Death, then for the Christian has lost its dread and fearfulness.

This, then is the basis of the Christian's confident attitude to death. As such, he/she does not fear death, sharing in Christ's victory over death and, its twin sister — theologically speaking — sin.

Such being the case, there is no reason whatsoever why Christians should seek or even desire the restoration to life of a saint, who, having passed the age of three score and 10, has peacefully and contentedly, passed through death to the life eternal. There is every reason to rejoice, assured that he/she has gone to be forever with the Lord.

It is essential to appreciate the context in which the "faith healing movement" arose during the mid-20th century. There was a theological concept known as Dispensationalism which proved to be very influential in a number of American "main line" denominations.

There were those Christian theologians and preachers who conducted many " faith healing crusades" which draw thousands in every corner of the globe. According to this approach, miracles are possible, if one believes in the healing power of God, revealed as divine love in His Son and present with us today in the person of the Holy Spirit.

There is renewed interest in miracles in The Bahamas at this time. In the Methodist Church, under the leadership of immediate past president, Rev. Livingston Malcolm who was stationed here in Freeport, and its incumbent Bishop Rev. Raymond Neilly, very high priority has been placed upon miracles. Belief in miracles has featured prominently in the mottos announced at its annual conference, for the moral and spiritual edification of its members throughout the months of the succeeding church year.

Serving as a pastor for more than four decades, I have participated in the performance of miracles of healing when persons were very ill and brought back from the very door of death!

It has to be stated, however, that the theological problem is the fact that, if not interpreted and exercised properly, this approach may lead to an undue emphasis upon the faith of the believer, virtually eliminating or greatly reducing the concept of divine grace. Thus, if a miracle does take place, then his/her faith is validated. However, if it does not, then the claim is made that he/she does not have enough faith.

This approach certainly presents major theological problems. for, priority is placed, not on the grace of God but on the faith of man. Concisely, the efficacy of the miracle is dependent upon the faith of the believer, not the grace of God. Taken to an extreme, faith itself becomes a matter of human effort rather than a response to the operation of divine grace. This is when "faith" becomes works.

It is the teaching of the Bible and theology that religion is first and foremost the act of God (grace).

Grace, as some theologians prefer to describe it, "prevenient grace", is at the heart of the Christian understanding of the working of miracles. Faith is the response to the divine imitative.

In the performance of miracles, as in the doctrine of salvation, it is grace which takes priority with faith being secondary and, in response to divine grace.

It is not enough to engage in an act of the demonstration of "blind faith" without taking into consideration the divine will. When a person has lived out his/her three score and 10 years and has passed from this life to the life eternal, then it is best to graciously accept the divine act in bringing him/her to the end of their earthly sojourn. There is no need to pray for their return to this mortal life. As Archdeacon James Palacious, truthfully declared, Christians believe that he/she has gone to share in a life far superior to this transitory life.

Those, then, who seek to raise the dead, especially in the case of the faithful departed, demonstrate a lack of faith. Here it has to be stated that as is far too often the case, there are those in the Bahamian religious community who have taken ideas "hook, line and sinker" from the complex American theological community, without seeking to adapt the same to the local situation or to examine it in the light of the theology of the church," tried and tested" since the time of Christ.

What, then should be our attitude, when a person, who, having completed three score and 10 or more years, passes from this mortal life? Surely, it must be based on the conviction that he/she shares in the victory wrought by Christ over sin and death in his glorious resurrection. as he assured those who flocked to hear him during his earthly ministry.
