Solutions to ‘Youth in Crisis’ are in the Bible The Book of Good Family Stories Hardly a day goes by that we don’t hear or read about a boy or girl falling victim to a violent attack by another boy or girl who cannot be named for legal reasons. Also, it is common now that every new incident is followed by calls to stop the bloodshed. Politicians on all sides of the house, peace keepers and in

The Answer You Get Depends on Who You AskThe UK could be in for a period of severe weather conditions with more snow and ice than the country has seen for decades. At least that’s what a leading insurer would have us believe that forecasters are predicting. Although forecasters are often chided for getting or guessing the weather wrong, not all seem to agree with ‘Severe Weather Forecast to Hit

‘Sandhurst is no fun, but it is an experience worth enduring.’ Once upon a long time this is a statement you would expect from one preparing to fight for king and country. Think again. I have just discovered that Sandhurst is a sought after training facility in the worlds of finance and commerce in the 21st century. Rewind to the statement. I really heard it from a friend who at most is a thirty

The ban on smoking in England may well be the best thing that has ever happened for anyone who has been earnestly trying to stub out the habit. If you are among those who have given up only to light up again, then you are ready to try what I like to call the ‘Ultimate Smokers IQ Test’. Whether you are among those who smoke 10, 20, or even 40 a day, believe me it is worth a try. It has worked for

The start of every hurricane season refreshes memories of my worst hurricane experience. In all, I have witnessed three major storms but the one I will never forget is Hugo in 1989. As a broadcaster, for years I had followed the progress of Atlantic hurricanes but nothing had prepared me for the onslaught of Hugo on Montserrat (16˚ 12’ North 62˚ 12 West). Hugo touched down on the island 61

Don't drink and drive is a cliché that has been around for a while. Well how about this? 'When you are pregnant and you know it, don't drink.' And since the latest Department of Health (DoH) advice also recommends that women trying to conceive should avoid drinking, we could have another which says: 'Don't drink and have sex' There are no real surprises in the DoH's decision to move the goal post

Gordon Brown waited ten years for the keys to Number 10. Now that he is confirmed as heir apparent there are those who are tempted to look back at what might have been. But the question that needles some minds is who will get the new prime minister's promise to quit. Or were the Blair - Brown vows a one off. Could that be the question? But let's say it isn't. Then the big question could be; who
