I just told them to enjoy their game so that we’ll all be happy,” he said.

Two armed bandits confronted 57-year-old money-changer Wazir Khan at his place of operation on Water Street, Georgetown — in the vicinity of the old KFC building obliquely opposite the Stabroek Market — on Saturday at about 8:10 hrs; and in what can only be described as a daring daylight robbery, relieved him of some $400,000 in local and foreign currencies.According to reports, Khan, of Lot 7 Back Middle Walk, Anna Catherina, West Coast Demerara, was plying his trade when two males known to him approached him. One of them pulled a firearm from his waist, pointed it at Khan, and ordered him to hand over his money. Khan had in his possession a quantity of local currency besides pounds sterling and TT and US currencies. He threw it all on the ground, presumably in both panic and in a desperate effort to stymie the robbery attempt; but the gunman’s accomplice quickly picked it all up.The two perpetrators then both escaped in a southerly direction through the Route 45 Bus Park.The matter was reported, and an investigation has since been launched.Only last week, drivers working from the bus parks in Georgetown’s Stabroek Market area decried the absence of GPF ranks or City Constables to address criminal activities which are reportedly pervasive at the minibus parks. read more

Mullantyboyle Bridge, GlentiesFine Gael TD for Donegal, Dinny McGinley, has welcomed the allocation of almost €700,000 in funding by the Minister for Transport, Paschal Donohoe, for the restoration of Multiniboyle Bridge outside Glenties. “Multiniboyle Bridge outside Glenties collapsed into the river five years ago as it could no longer handle the volume of traffic is had to carry. The loss of this bridge has been a huge inconvenience to local people, businesses and farmers in the area,” he said.“With Multiniboyle Bridge out of action, motorists have been left with no choice but to take a diversion of over 15km around Glenties. “In February of this year I invited Minister Donohoe to Donegal and when he was here I took him to the bridge to highlight the need for urgent funding.“Minister Donohoe acknowledged the problems caused by the collapse of the bridge and assured me that he would do everything in his power to deal with the issue as quickly as possible.“I am delighted to hear that funding of just under €700,000 has been allocated to repair the bridge. Minister Donohoe recognised the impact that the collapse of the bridge has had on the people of the locality and his Department has made the funding available to repair the bridge.“I look forward to the seeing works get underway in the very near future and to seeing Multiniboyle Bridge back in use before too long.” GLENTIES TO GET REPLACEMENT BRIDGE was last modified: March 30th, 2015 by John2Share this:Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pocket (Opens in new window)Click to share on Telegram (Opens in new window)Click to share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)Click to share on Skype (Opens in new window)Click to print (Opens in new window) Tags:bridgeGlentiesprotest read more

17 April 2012 Britain’s Princess Anne, in South Africa for three days as part of Queen Elizabeth’s diamond jubilee celebrations, met Deputy President Kgalema Motlanthe in Pretoria on Tuesday. President Jacob Zuma on Monday extended his warm wishes to Princess Anne, saying her visit would “further strengthen relations between South Africa and the United Kingdom”. Zuma was unable to meet the Princess himself, as he had engagements in KwaZulu-Natal. The three-day visit by the Princess Royal – the only daughter of Queen Elizabeth II – is part of the celebrations marking the Queen’s 60 years on the throne. On Monday, Princess Anne visited a number of non-government organisations she supports, including Save the Children and the St John’s Ambulance Service. On Wednesday, as part of her duties as member of the International Olympic Committee and President of the British Olympic Association, she will mark the 100-days countdown to the 2012 London Olympic Games at a Cape Town school which forms part of the International Inspirations legacy project. The Princess Royal will also lead a ceremony of remembrance and wreath-laying at the graves of Commonwealth soldiers and the grave of the nanny of her father, the Duke of Edinburgh.

Value isn’t what something costs. Value is what that something is worth.I have Montblanc Le Grand pen that I carry. That pen costs just over $500. Not a lot of people find value in a pen that costs as much as the Le Grand Rollerball. I have carpal tunnel in might right hand from typing so much, and with such poor form, that I almost never write anything. When I do write something by hand, you can take it to any pharmacy and trade it for a prescription for amoxicillin. My handwriting is best with a cheap Pilot G2 (10) gel pen. But the Le Grand was a gift from my mother when I graduated from college. To me, it is priceless.You would never pay that much for a pen. But you might pay that amount or more to go to a concert or the theatre. The price of the ticket to an event may seem outrageous to some, but you easily trade your money for the value that the event creates for you, namely the experience. The value of the experience is far more valuable the money.You might pay a lot of money to get the very latest and greatest technology, like a television or a smartphone. There are likely more people that would never pay what you pay for these things, because they don’t value them the same way you do. But the experience of the technology, or the bragging rights that come from being on the bleeding edge, provide a value to you that exceeds the price you pay for these things.Maybe for you it’s clothes, or fine dining, or your car, or furniture, or rare 1st edition hard cover books. Whatever it is, there is something in your life that you pay more for because the value it creates for you make it worth the money you trade for it.If your dream client’s challenges are important enough to cause them change, then it’s certain that the value created by changing is worth paying more to obtain. You don’t have to create greater value and also have a lower price point.There are some people who pay more by being cheap. They perceive greater value by paying less for something, even if it costs them a better experience, better results, and a better outcome. They even have to replace what they buy more frequently. They know what things cost, but they don’t have any idea what they’re really worth.Your job is to help people make the right investments to obtain the value that they want, to drive up the value created, not to help them focus find a lower price.
