Several years ago, the company I worked for was undergoing massive changes. Until then, I’d been on a wonderful team of encouraging leaders and friends. We were building our side of the business and seeing great success. We were thrilled to be a part of it. Then, before we knew what hit us, people were being downsized and company holdings were sold.

We were stunned to find that this person we barely knew would have control over the business we’d built for years.
The United Nations and foreign governments called on Myanmar to allow in aid workers as more rain was forecast for the stricken country. The UN's World Food Program sent three planeloads of high- energy biscuits to Myanmar, with another en route to help feed survivors of the May 3 cyclone, said Marcus Prior, a spokesman for the UN agency in Bangkok. WFP hasn't been able to send staff to oversee aid distribution. The agency has 16 visa applications pending, with only one accepted so far, he said.
The Meyer Amphitheater, downtown West Palm Beach. on the picturesque Flagler waterfront will be the venue of the well-anticipated, fun-filled 5th Annual Summer Sizzle Jerk and Caribbean Culture Festival. With a cultivated expertise and passion for entertainment, the Full-A-Vibes committee has set plans in motion to produce one of the biggest, well-attended cultural events of the year. The stage at the Meyer Amphitheatre will permeate an infectious groove of music that will showcase the talents of some of the Caribbean’s leading musical luminaries such as the electrifying Fab 5 Reggae/Soca band, the legendary reggae artiste Frankie Paul and the lyrically dexterous Professor Nuts. In addition, there will be performances from Folk groups and a number of popular local acts who will display their talents through song and traditional dance.
