PRETTY THING

A man pulled his hat low and pressed his ears against the cold doors of the “Butcher’s Room”. Hearing the reassuring thuds of meat against metal table and muffled screaming of the human, he grinned as he tip-toed away to the mess hall where meals were held. By tomorrow night, they would reach Sabaody Archipelago according to their faithful navigator and he needed to get the last note of the plan down by tonight… or rather this morning.

It was four in the morning and he locked the swing door shut when he backed away into the kitchen. He heaved a sigh of relief and turned to his mates in cahoots. They gave him a thumbs up with the same victorious grin. He jogged up to their sides. He stopped at the island counter and dropped a similar drawstring pouch on the table top.

“So, are we ready?” He asked, excitedly.

“Yeah, damn straight we are! I mean, we have been saving for weeks since the first time we saw it on the newspaper!” Another man exclaimed.

“Shhh, too loud!”

“It is okay. Captain is in his playroom and the rest of them are either asleep or in the control room. It’s only us for now. We are safe.” The man announced. “Come on, let’s pour it all out and give it a count, Shachi!”

A pull of strings and overturning of the leather pouches, the gold came tumbling down in a pile on the island’s countertop. Soon, four pairs of hands were splitting into the sparkling pile and digging for more in their overall’s pockets, in their boots and in the seams of their headgear. When they were done, they posed a sight of defeat and disappointment. The same zombie-fied groan fell from their lips.

“How is it that us, four grown ass men fail to save for such a simple thing?” One of them smacked the table in emphasis. The towers of gold trembled. “We have been saving for two weeks, man! Two freaking weeks, four men and we are still 16, 000 beri short!”

“Maybe we could… you know, steal it?” One of them shrugged, nonchalantly. “I mean, we are pirates. We are notorious for pillaging and stealing. We take what we want! We can just snatch it out of the store.”

“Ha, right, Reyes, like we can do that.” Shachi snorted. “You have been onboard for nearly five months, right? Tell me do you remember what Captain always say when our feet touch the sand?”

“Don’t be a fool, pay attention and stay low.” They all quoted in a drone.

“Sabaody is a marine base as well and we are right under the nose of Mariejois. As much as the Marine HQ has moved to New World and influence weakened, it is still a marine base and it only take them a couple of minutes to be on our asses.”

“Hear hear, Penguin.”

“Okay, we are still 16, 000 short. By hook or crook, we need that amount. Someone better come up with a good idea on how to get that money cause we are reaching that damn place in another day. Bepo is never wrong with this.” Reyes pulled his blonde hair back. “Oxen?”

“Huh? Me? I suggest we borrow from Ikkaku.” Oxen shrugged. “She seems to have a lot of gold. I mean, I don't see her spend much on anything.”

“She is with Captain.” Reyes deadpanned with a stare. “She will definitely tell on us.”

“She is with Captain?” The incredulous look on Oxen’s face was epic. So epic that the rest of them choked at his intonation of his words. “What? This is serious business! If Captain and Ikkaku are sleeping together, I believe that we need to know because I don't want to see the spawn of Satan running around on Polar Tang!” He slammed his fist down, causing the golden towers to collapse.

The rest of the males hooted in laughter, gasping for air and slapping the countertop with their flailing palms at Oxen’s flabbergasted face.

“What? Oi! Be serious! Tell this old man right here, right now that what’s so funny!” Oxen demanded with his eyes wide with confusion.

“Yes, please tell me as well on why are you three laughing like you’re on nitrous oxide.”

The laughter was killed in a second. It was like the time froze for the four of them. Like clockwork, theirs heads turned to look at the new voice that sounded from the stretches of table before them. Lips mumbling prayers of their hometowns, they tried to save their skins as their eyes confirmed that their worst nightmare was in the same room with them.

There the nightmare was with his booted feet up on the head of the dining table, his body was slumped against the back of the seat that was balanced on two feet. Both hands were before him nursing a mug of drink, undoubtedly coffee as he rocked the makeshift rocking chair. He was smiling, eyes bright with humour but shined with something deadly behind his steel-grey pupils.

“Oh God, this is bad for my heart.” Oxen wheezed.

“C-captain, I — ”

The rocking stopped. They stopped breathing once again.

“I’ve to walk back to my room and get the main key for the kitchen before coming in to deposit my cold coffee. This is the first time in my whole life on this submarine that I’ve to do that. Probably this is also the first time someone locked me out of my own abode.” The smile did not falter. “Care to explain why?”

“C-captain, I —”

“Oh by the way, I heard your funny conversation about Ikkaku-ya and I. Let me clear something up, we are not sleeping together. I don’t sleep with my crew. It complicates things.”

“C-captain, I — ”

“With all that gold on the table, the four of you are planning for your retirement?”

“No, Captain. I —”

“Good morning, Heart Crew! This is Bepo, your navigator speaking. Captain, it is time for the early morning meeting in the control room. Both Clione and I are awaiting for your presence. The graveyard shift can be dismissed from their duties as the time is up. It is five in the morning now and we are two hours away from breakfast! See y’all in the mess hall later!” The intercom sounded.

“…”

“Captain, I —”

“As you've heard, I am a busy man. We are reaching the archipelago soon. I expect —”

“Just let me say it! Captain, please we are just trying to get an ice-cream machine! It was on sale in the little brochure that the daily newspaper came with! We saw it and we love it so now we are trying to get it! Was it so hard to say, Penguin and Shachi? See, I just told Captain everything! Now we are fucked and —”

A small thump of the mug landed on the wooden table. A creak of the chair sounded as it was being righted. Thuds of boots on the ground and a soft rustling of clothes told them that their captain had pulled himself into full height. However what surprised them was the sound of the swing door opening and closing behind the tall surgeon without words.

The foursome looked at each other, equally confused. Reyes approached the lonely white mug gingerly. The threesome backed away, treating the mug like an explosive. Reyes yelped in shock when he lifted the mug. A cry of happiness was heard from him like a child in Christmas’s morning. Sobbing in relief and elation, he brandished the surprise at his mates.

“16, 000 beri from Captain himself! Men, can you believe it? Captain gave us the green light for ice-cream!” He was jumping from the overwhelming emotion.

“OH CAPTAIN, WE LOVE YOU!”

If gamers gather sufficient blueprints for the vehicles they already very own, the motors themselves may be upgraded for an extra performance improve. Every race in need for velocity: no limits requires gasoline, or strength, to finish, with fuel recharging mechanically through the years, or being to be had to buy with top rate currency. Out of doors of the 'underground' story races, gamers will finally unlock special timed activities, tournaments and extra. A automobile collection mode is also available, with each series that specialize in a particular kind of car, encouraging gamers to collect every automobile to take part in all of them to earn extra rewards.

You'll constantly continue gaining pace, so there may be no want to fear approximately how tough you turn. Simply try to take the inside line as a great deal as feasible to cut distance off of ways some distance you want to go in an effort to catch up to and/or beat other racers.

After every race is completed, you may need to click thru a large number of reward monitors and anticipate the sport to load, which certainly isn't always ideal while you're completed with each race in under one minute's time. In all, even though, racing is quite fun. It's plenty less complicated than most other racing games, and it is specifically simpler than different need for velocity titles. One right issue to take note of is that whenever you earn enough reputation points and level up, you get a unfastened gas refill. As such, it's far handiest clever to strategize across the recognition points you earn to make sure that the final cans of gas you have got may be the ones to cause a level up, as much as manageable. First and predominant, in case you need to progress quicker in the sport and maximize resource utilization, make it a dependancy to play up till you empty your gas. The sport's shape certainly strikes a chord in my memory a chunk of a social rpg like puzzle & dragons (loose), with a campaign mode, each day missions, unique occasions, and the aforementioned gathering and upgrading aspects. Luckily, the real racing is pretty splendid. It feels very much like maximum wanted, with every race being a brief, arcade-y blast of amusing.

Early on, the common refills avoid the issue. Your short-term development in no limits can be stymied by way of the gas meter, which components 10 units (gallons?) To burn through earlier than it has to regenerate—or be refilled with in-sport forex. Every occasion takes one to a few fuel devices to begin, however each time you level up, your bar is fully refilled.

By no means back down as you race all people crazy sufficient to take you on, go away them gapped, and boom your rep. dig, drift, drag, and roll your trip to the finish line at the same time as outrunning the police to your tail. Burn rubber in over 1,000 tough races - and that is just the beginning line. Be notorious, very own the streets, and rating the arena's fine motors. Because one journey is by no means sufficient!

tick tock goes the clock

Christophe Giacometti/Victor Nikiforov, Yuuri Katsuki/Victor Nikiforov, Christophe Giacometti/Mystery Boyfriend

614 words

Victor Nikiforov is Chris’ soulmate.

This cannot be happening.

AO3 link

For @giacometti-week Day 2: Time

The timer on Chris’ wrist stops when Victor Nikiforov first acknowledges him at a skating competition, throws him a rose, and says that he’ll see him at the Worlds. Chris can’t quite believe it, because this is Victor Nikiforov, winner of multiple gold medals, internationally famous, world champion Victor Nikiforov, but now he’s also apparently Chris’ soulmate.

Victor Nikiforov is Chris’ soulmate.

This cannot be happening.

-

It totally is happening though, because the timer on Chris’ wrist stays at 00:000:00:00 and it doesn’t move. He stares at it for hours until his eyes go bleary and he’s not entirely sure 0 is a number anymore, then stalks Victor’s social media, looking for any hints that Victor’s timer has stopped too.

Nothing comes.

-

Chris does see Victor at the Worlds, and he happens to catch sight of his timer when all the skaters are in the locker rooms getting changed.

It’s still ticking.

Chris tries not to feel too disappointed.

-

Somehow, Victor ends up at Christophe’s eighteenth birthday celebrations. Chris isn’t really sure how or why Victor has turned up, but he’s not going to complain. He lets Victor in and introduces him to all of his friends, and then the drinking starts.

Chris has lost count of the number of drinks he’s had when Victor sits down next to him, brandishing a bottle of Sambuca. He pours out a couple of shots and pushes one in Chris’ direction with a smile. “So,” Victor says casually as he does his shot, “who’s your soulmate? I noticed your timer’s stopped.”

“You,” Chris blurts out, because he’s drunk and not thinking straight and the filter between his brain and his mouth is virtually non-existent at this point.

Victor is taken aback, his eyes wide. “No, I’m not,” Victor says. “My timer’s still going.”

“That doesn’t mean I’m not yours,” Chris says miserably. He’s researched this a lot, and there are many account of people’s soulmate clocks stopping but their soulmate’s not. One article called it ‘the clock that stopped too soon’ and another, on a slightly less positive note, said that ‘their clocks shouldn’t have started ticking at all’.

Personally, Chris just thinks he’s cursed.

“Oh,” Victor says, looking confused, a frown set into his brow. “I see.”

He goes quiet, staring at the shot glasses on the table. In the background, the other guests carry on talking and the music carries on playing, but for Chris and Victor, the room seems completely silent.

“I’m sorry, Chris,” Victor says after the silence between has become more awkward than not. “I can’t… I’ve got to go.”

He presses a brief kiss to Chris’ cheek as he goes, leaving Chris feeling all kinds of confused.

Chris reaches for the Sambuca bottle and pours himself another shot because he’s got to try and forget it all somehow.

-

The next time Chris sees Victor, he’s cut his hair. Somehow, it’s the final nail in a coffin that’s already being lowered into the ground.

-

Chris sees Victor’s timer stop at the Grand Prix Banquet when Yuuri Katsuki gets drunk and ask Victor to be his coach. Despite himself, Chris can’t help but smile, because at least Victor will finally be happy. Also, there’s a guy who Chris thinks is a retired ice dancer standing at the bar who’s been very obviously checking Chris out all evening, especially when he was stripped down to his underwear and dancing on the pole.

Chris smirks and makes his way over to the guy. He has a feeling that everything is about to work out just fine, timers on wrists dictating who you’re supposed to be with for your entire life be damned.

The Chase Files Daily Newscap 11/10/2019

Good Morning #realdreamchasers. Here is your daily news cap for Friday, October 11th, 2019. There is a lot to read and digest so take your time. Remember you can read full articles via Barbados Government Information Service (BGIS), Barbados Today (BT), or by purchasing a Weekend Nation Newspaper (WN).

DEMS SAY GOVT FAILING THE PEOPLE – The Democratic Labour Party (DLP) has slammed the Mia Amor Mottley Administration for painting an image on the international stage that all was well at home, while ordinary Barbadians suffer. DLP president Verla De Peiza, speaking yesterday at a press conference at Charlton Chambers, Whitepark Road, St Michael, gave the Government a failing grade, adding it was not meeting the social needs of Barbadians. “The people of Barbados have to be at the core of whatever policies are being made,” she said. “You cannot have policies that take the country somewhere internationally but leave your people behind. It is a recipe for anarchy and dissension. “When you have conversations overseas about climate change and how it will impact people and environmental policy, but at home you are pumping sewage into the sea, garbage is piling up everywhere, with rodents and flies on the increase, and diseases in the offing, how can you give anything other than a failing grade?” she asked. (WN)

CALL TO BE ON GUARD – The Ministry of Health is warning Barbadians to be on their guard as the island experiences a “significant” upsurge in cases of viral illnesses. The caution came yesterday from both acting Chief Medical Officer Dr Anton Best and senior medical officer of health (North) Dr Leslie Rollock. Best reported that after investigations, specifically in the area of disease surveillance, the ministry had determined there was an increase in rhino (cold) viruses, as well as some flu viruses. The response came in the wake of yesterday’s Front Page story in the DAILY NATION which highlighted the concerns of parents about a large number of children falling ill at Harrison College with flu-like symptoms. Since then, other schools have reported students and some teachers being sick with similar symptoms, including sore throat, vomiting and headache along with feelings of lethargy. (WN)

COMPTROLLER: UP TO WAREHOUSES – The onus is now on warehouse operators to upload their stock into the new Automated System for Customs Data (ASYCUDA) World system. And if they don’t, there will be no activity, causing their own bottleneck. That was revealed by Comptroller of Customs Owen Holder, who was speaking following a marathon meeting on Tuesday with stakeholders in the customs industry. “The warehouse owners were asked to submit their stock to Customs on August 23, and add the opening stock in the system. To date, some organisations are still trying to ascertain what their stock is. “The issuance of a licence to operate a warehouse is conditioned by many things, including the operation of a system that they can easily determine the stock levels within the warehouse at any time,” he explained.   (BT)

$7,500 COMPENSATION – A local High Court has ordered a 38-year-old woman to pay $7,500 in compensation for injuries she inflicted on another woman with a hammer. The order was handed down yesterday by Justice Randall Worrell in the No. 2 Supreme Court against Tracy Alicia Layne of Skeete’s Road, Clapham, Christ Church. Justice Worrell told Layne she must pay $2,500 forthwith, which was paid. She  must pay another $2,500 by November 29 this year and the final installment of a similar sum by January 31 next year. He also informed her he will deliver the court’s sentencing on the same day as the final payment. Layne went on trial last year on two charges: that on March 29, 2005 she wounded Esther Moore with intent to maim, disfigure or disable her or to do her some serious bodily harm and unlawfully and maliciously wounding her. On October 16, 2018, the accused was found not guilty of wounding with intent, but guilty of the lesser charge. Layne is being represented by attorney-at-law Arthur Holder. (BT)

TRIDENTS BOOK SPOT IN CPL FINAL – Ashley Nurse and Raymon Reifer starred with both bat and ball as Barbados Tridents knocked out defending champions Trinbago Knight Riders to set up a 2019 Hero Caribbean Premier League(CPL) final against the all-conquering Guyana Amazon Warriors. Nurse’s intervention was crucial in both innings, first when blasting an unbeaten 24 from nine balls to propel a stuttering Tridents innings up to 160 for 6 and then taking two key wickets to help strangle the Knight Riders’ run-chase.  Having been put into bat, the Tridents looked set to make an under-par total for the majority of their innings until Nurse and Raymon Reifer – who later also played his part with the ball, bowling a nerveless final over that included the vital wicket of Seekkuge Prasanna for a 27-ball 51 and the match-clinching one of Khary Pierre – plundered an unbroken 48 runs for the seventh wicket from the final 14 balls. With the Knight Riders ultimately coming up 12 runs short, the final two overs when the Tridents batted were the difference between going to Saturday’s final and going home. Johnson Charles could have been dismissed twice early in his 35, dropped by Denesh Ramdin in the first over of the night and then seeing a skied shot land safe after Lendl Simmons and Chris Jordan left it for each other. While never quite at his fluent best, Charles’ effort was crucial in holding things together during a fraught first half of the Tridents innings in which Hales and Shakib fell to Pierre and JP Duminy was forced to hobble off retired hurt after injuring his leg while hitting a six. The Tridents will be desperate to have him available on Saturday. Charles followed Duminy straight off the field, skying Ali Khan to Jordan at mid-off to leave the Tridents in bother at 74 for 3 – effectively four down – in the 12th over. Things got worse for them two overs later when Jonathan Carter was spectacularly caught and bowled by Jordan, who flung himself to his left in his follow-through to pluck the ball from the air inches above the grass. When Jason Holder picked out Colin Munro at deep midwicket in the same over, the Tridents were 92 for 5 with time running out and the innings in real danger of falling away completely. That didn’t happen. Shai Hope played nicely for his 23 from 18 with two fours and a six, before Reifer and Nurse gave the innings its all-important explosive finish. Both men finished 24 not out, with five Hero Maximums between them. Even then, 160 for 6 was no more than a par score in tricky conditions for bowlers coping with a wet ball. Seekkuge Prasanna of Trinbago Knight Riders almost brought it home for his team with 51 off 27 balls.   (WN)

HELPING ONE OF THEIR OWN – A group of former St James Secondary School (now Frederick Smith Secondary) students have joined hands to raise funds to assist cancer victim Ruth Quintyne with medical expenses. This morning, during a brief ceremony at the Ministry of Labour, Quintyne received a $10, 000 cheque from the Trents 95 Alumni. Trents 95 Alumni which was born out of an immediate need to help Quintyne, has as its mission to socially connect with Trents Class of ‘95 old scholars and to provide relief to those in need, by reason of ill-health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantages. The funds were raised through a fish fry held at the Bay Street Esplanade on September 7, and also from donations from corporate Barbados and other kind-hearted citizens. Almost a year ago, Quintyne was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma, a cancer of the blood. She is currently undergoing chemotherapy treatment and is unable to work. Quintyne has no health insurance coverage and her focus right now is on winning with cancer and having a much-needed hip replacement surgery. “It has been a challenging year mentally, and it’s only through God’s grace and mercy that I am here today and I am overwhelmed. I want to thank the Trents alumni, my schoolmates. “It warms my heart to see that they really stepped out for me. I have seen the hard work that you guys put in, and I have seen the challenges that you had and I am sincerely grateful from the bottom of my heart to each and everyone of you,” said Quintyne. (BT)

MEKKING SPORT – The string of Caribbean comedians and one comedienne kept a packed audience at the Lloyd Erskine Sandiford Centre in fits of laughter at the third annual Let Muh Laugh comedy show last Saturday night. In a show that could be deemed moderately comical, Barbadians Rickardo Reid Jr, Nadia Phillips, Rum and Koke alongside Jamaican Chris Johnny Daley and Trinidadian Allan D Entertainer shared stories that were not only hilarious but absurd to the point that you could not help but laugh. The Market Vendor made a special guest appearance. While taking jabs at politicians and celebrities, the line-up also shared comical family and village stories along with other life experiences. As expected, issues affecting the Caribbean both economically and socially including horning, homosexuality and violence were up for discussion. The first half of the show saw Reid and Phillips take the stage with Reid speaking of mishaps at funerals, the exploits of his family – especially his uncle – who got him involved in entertainment. The NIFCA bronze, silver and gold medal winner and Daphne Joseph and Alfred Pragnell Awardee got a good response. Meanwhile, Phillips, the lone female didn’t connect with the audience and she got very little response. She spoke of how the tough economic times were impacting on daily life before descending into the realm of bowel movements and nose picking. The topics did not resonate with some audience members who started clapping during her performance.    However, Emcee Mac Fingall who from the start of the show kept the laughs coming also held the show together between performances telling his stories in his usual hilarious manner and engaging in banter with the audience. Of note was an interview of the Market Vendor, done by Rebecca Fernandes of Corridor News Network. The wide-ranging interview revealed what he would do if he were Prime Minister including changing the names of several government agencies and his views on the most dangerous weapon in Barbados, which incidentally was a cutlass. The Market Vendor who had his bucket said it contained notes of things he would not like to forget and a wealth of other information. Representing Trinidad, Allan D Entertainer who would amend some of the Ten Commandments if he could, said they would come with serious consequences if not adhered to. He said if he could change the commandments, individuals who lie would fart, for those who steal their arms would get shorter and those who commit adultery would walk with bow legs; he envisioned how some politicians would look if it were so. He was joined by Chris Johnny Daley who told stories of his homeland Jamaica and the dancehall scene there. Entertainer Ding Dong’s one word songs bore the brunt of his assault while the many tales of his interactions with his wife were well received. Local talent Rum and Koke gave commentary of a game of the Caribbean Political League (CPL), a version of the cricket league. They noted how the former captain was extremely quiet during his stint but how the new captain was leading from the front, at times bowling and batting at the same time. The receptive and almost full to capacity audience cheered and laughed loudly with almost everyone remaining seated until the curtain closed on the show around midnight.   (BT)

BEAUTY, TALENT AND SMARTS – Give her the mace, the crown and throne. Kyla Ward deserved to be crowned on the night of the Barbados Talented Teen category amongst females. She pulled out all the stops as she performed amazingly with guitar in hand and splendid voice to match. With a mash up remix to Lana Del Rey’s Young and Beautiful fused with End of the World by Rob Dickinson, Queen Kyla was stunning as she sat poised on the stage at the Lloyd Erskine Sandiford Centre, Two Mile Hill, St Michael on Saturday. She was simply amazing. Her gown was another show stopper as she came out bedecked in a golden mesh and sequined piece which showed her curves and pieces of chocolate skin. The question: “Who do you find as a phenomenal woman?” did not trip her up either as she carved that one out by naming young environmentalist, Greta Thunberg, who made headlines as an activist for the earth and green living. Ward said that she was not expecting to win, but she was relieved nonetheless. First runner-up, Naticia Eugene, pointed out the humility of Michelle Obama when asked about a woman who made a significant impact on her and she too was graceful in her pink gown. Eugene, also a vocalist, rocked the hall as she sang Titanium. She won Miss Congeniality, Best Project and Best Project Interview. Lauryn Small, who played steel pan, commanded the stage and that earned her enough points as second runner-up. She came out gowned in a sweet sliver set which flowed from waist to floor. Small hailed her mother for making a significant impact in her life. Other participants included Hope Thomas, Azaria Sealy and Grace Pooler who did an interesting act of archery mixed with gymnastics. Manager of Barbados Talented Teens Kofi Branch said that the programme is in its sixth year. (BT)

HEAVY ROLLERS FOR SOCA FOR SIGHT – The sounds of sweet soca filled the atmosphere at The Barbados Yacht Club Saturday night when patrons gathered for the Soca For Sight charitable event. Some top local entertainers performed at the worthy cause which is one of two activities intended to raise $500, 000 for the Lion’s Eye Care Centre at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital. There was food and drink on sale throughout the night as well as a silent auction which all formed part of the fund-raising initiative. As for the show, it was a top-notch production from start to finish. MC Ronnie Clarke did an excellent job complementing what the artistes delivered on stage. The backing band, De Red Boyz, were in fine musical form for the entire night. The brass section was superb. Two sweet singing vocalists in Betty B and Biggie Irie added to the band. They started the night out with some hip hop classics such as Dancing Queen, Oh What A Night and Happy, among others. A fitting member to the performing cast was newly crowned Blind Soca King Mr DJwho sang It Got Me. When the six-time champ was done performing, he was spotted in the crowd enjoying the night’s entertainment. The Soca General, Edwin Yearwood, was the first main act to grace the stage to the sounds of the 1997 hit song All Aboard, a song he had penned for Trinidadian band Atlantik. His was a full groovy set which appeared to please the party crowd and included such hits as Good Time, Carnival On My Mind, Feels Like Home Again, Pump Me Up and Wet Me. Edwin ended with Sak Pase and as has become the norm, the massive were rocking from side to side as they loudly  proclaimed: “De Road is Mine…” Biggie Irie returned to the stage, this time for a solo set which included: Country Girl, Pankatang, Need Ah Riddim, Magic and Nah Going Home. He went way back in time to sing an old time favourite Splash Band’s Get Busy. King of the Road Mighty Grynner upped the pace a bit, and the crowd loved it. With a set filled with classics, the “old dawg” sang Mr T, We Want More Grynner, Turn Up De Speaker and Leggo I Hand and had the crowd rocking. Repeatedly saying he could sing all night long, Grynner got an encore as the crowd chanted: “more Grynner” to which he obliged. He came back on stage and sang Leggo I Hand one more time. RPB got the honour of closing the show. His performance saw the crowd enjoying songs such as Once Upon A Wine, Wrong Gal, Ragga Ragga and Something’s Happening. He ended with the 2017 hit song Boat Ride at which time 75-year-old Bill Tempro, who is legally blind, made his way to the stage. RPB said the song was in tribute to Bill who will set out to sail around the island on October 13, the second fund-raising event called Sail for Sight. The entertainer asked everyone to give Bill their support as he embarked on the activity which is for a worthy cause. (BT)

RIHANNA IN NEW LIGHT – She has already sold millions of albums, tons of lingerie, and is making a name for herself in high-fashion. And Rihanna’s next venture is in the publishing world. The 31-year-old mogul announced on Monday morning that she will be releasing her first ever “visual autobiography” – simply titled Rihanna – through publisher Phaidon. Perhaps the most interesting part of the release is that there will be three-limited editions including the most luxe option which features a 2, 000-pound hand-carved marble pedestal from Portugal which has already sold out. There are only ten in the world and last month Cardi B bid on and won the Ultra Luxury Supreme Edition – titled Stoner – for $111, 000. There is also the Luxury Supreme version which includes a gold custom bookstand created in collaboration with artists the Haas Brothers which retails at a mere $5, 500. There is also a limited edition Fenty x Phaidon version for $175 featuring a steel bookstand also designed by the Haas Brothers and a standard version for $150. No matter what format the book is in, it will contain more than 1, 000 photos documenting the pop star and her life including many snaps which have never been seen. Additional features include three paper stocks, seven single and double page gatefolds, nine bound-in booklets, one tip-in sheet, and a double-sided removable poster. Of the project, Rihanna said: “I am so excited to share this collection of incredible images. I’m very grateful to the talented photographers and artists who contributed. We’ve been working on the book for over five years and I’m really happy to be able to finally share it with everybody.” A press statement read: “From her childhood in Barbados to her worldwide tours, from quintessential fashion moments to private time with friends and family, the book showcases intimate photographs of her life as a musician, performer, designer, and entrepreneur.” Rihanna and Phaidon are hosting a pre-publication ticketed book party at the Guggenheim Museum in New York City this Friday.
