The CADA Players Presents: KaleidoscopeIf you missed it last weekend, make sure to get

your tickets for this Saturday and Sunday’s perform-

ances (May 2nd and 3rd) of Kaleidoscope – the Cada

Player’s dynamic exploration of the human experi-

ence through dance and music.

“We succeeded in everything we set out to do, it

all worked beautifully” explained Joanne Penney who

co-produced the show with her daughter Sarah.

This weekend’s performances promise the same

level of professionalism and stagecraft that have

marked all Cada shows from Ringmaster to last year’s

knockout African Dreams. Says Joanne, “the fun and

lighthearted show is a joyous upbeat marriage of life

music and vibrant movement with dancers, singers,

clowns, musicians and projections sharing the stage.

There’s never a dull moment.”

The company’s talented crew hails from 15 differ-

ent countries, although almost all are full-time VI resi-

dents. Some though, like Liz Keller a professional

stage manager and Ryan Harper a projectionist have

come from California to volunteer their services.

The primary choreographer for the show is Sarah

Penney, Joanne’s daughter and the show’s co-produc-

er. Additional dance numbers were choreographed by

Amanda Georges, Diandra Jones and Joshua James.

Packed with dance and music the performance

features 20 dance numbers, as well as original musi-

cal compositions, vocalists, piano, drums, bass, steel

pan, and even a string section. “It’s extraordinary the

number of people who step up to share their skills.

The dance company just gets stronger each year,”

says Joanne. “Some people leave, but there is always

another talented individual to take their place.”

Proceeds from the performances go to Green VI,

which will have a display featuring their recycling and

conservation efforts. There will also be a video high-

lighting their organization and its many initiatives.

The show will be held at a spruced up Sir

Briercliffe Hall and show times are 8pm on Saturday

and 6pm on Sunday.

money that you do not

want to touch right now;

no need to disclose the

amount.

You have a right to

respectfully decline to

have her name added to your existing account but you

can consider bringing some of your money over into

the new account that you and her will start together.

Even when you have a joint account, guidelines

still have to be set on how much both parties con-

tribute and up to how much can be withdrawn individ-

ually without the other party’s consent as major

expenses should be discussed. It helps to build coop-

eration and communication and is also useful if one

person is better than the other at handling money.

Separate accounts allow for individuals in a marriage

to have some degree of independence.

Counselling sessions will bring out these types of

issues and it is normal that two persons will have dif-

ferent viewpoints. Your job is not to convert her to

your way of thinking but to share any information that

will help her to understand you better and to listen

and learn so you understand who she is.

Dear Koren, I’m engaged to be married in December and after

a pre-marital counselling session with my fiancée, shesuggested we have a joint account which I agreed toand told her we can either open one now or when shechanges her name. I got the shock of my life when sheinsisted on being added to my current account. Shehas an idea of how much I make, but I have somemoney from my parents which I don’t want to publi-cize right now. What do I do? –Frustrated

Dear Frustrated,

You must be feeling a little backed into a corner.

Here you are trying to meet your fiancée half way only

to feel bombarded into taking a bigger step than you

intended to. I do understand your stance of having a

joint account that starts when the relationship gets

serious or when you get married. Usually what indi-

viduals have accumulated before they got serious

does not necessarily have to go into the general kitty

unless done willingly.

Money is one of the biggest sources of conflict in

marriages and the advantage of this coming up now is

that you get to discuss important financial matters

before you are actually married. Honesty should be

the best policy in handling this situation. Even though

you were not ready to disclose that you had an inher-

itance, now might be the time to tell her that your pre-

Your personal E-therapist, is in the house!Ask Koren

By Dean “The Sportsman” Greenaway

Unbeaten at 2-0 in its North American Caribbean

Rugby Association (NACRA) South Cup Zone League

play after victories over St. Lucia, St. Vincent and the

Grenadines, the BVI Rugby team is facing its biggest

match in its history at 3 pm on Saturday at A.O Shirley

Recreation Grounds. A victory against Curacao –

who’s currently at 1-1 in zone play – would see the

home team advancing to the next round for the first

time in its history.

The squad, which has been in a rebuilding mode,

now has competition for spots on the roster with an

infusion of young talent among the veterans.

“We need to come clean, just beat Curacao and

get the points from the match, and the rights to play

Barbados,” Coach Sherlock “Solo” Solomon pointed

out. “A draw will probably put us through on points

etc., but, we are not thinking on that. A straight win, 6

or 9 points and go to meet Barbados in the playoffs.”

The team has been working hard Solomon noted

and they had a 5 on 5 beach tournament on Sunday.

He said as the competition increases, they have to

work much harder and increase the intensity.

Importantly, he said they have some depth this time

around.

“Guys have been challenging for places and that

has stepped up the tempo per individual and if we

can put it together as a team, we should come out vic-

torious against Curacao,” he said. “We are ready,

ready, ready. This is a game we can’t afford to loose.

The guys are pumped up and really looking forward to

the game. We need to finish off the season with a

bang. We’re ready to bring it on.”

Since their 22-15 victory over St. Vincent and the

Grenadines which avenged a 24-22 loss last year,

Solomon said the competition within the team has

become stiffer because of the depth.

“We showed some depth in the last game and we

had five changes, we lost some players who were

unavailable, but now everybody is back,” Solomon

noted, adding that the team won’t be picked until

today while noting they need to have a good look at

those who are returning and available. “We have a full

roster now. Currently, we have 33 players on our list.

We need 22 on the squad, so picking the first 15 to

start is really tough – for which I’m happy. Competition

among the players is there. We have four or five wing

forwards and they are all competing for a place which

is what you want on a team, so the scenario fits us

well and the competition among the players is what

we need. They will be fighting each other down to the

wire and that’s a good thing for rugby.”

Solomon said they have been enjoying success

this year and support coming from all angles in what

he called a dream season – one which they have been

really enjoying.

“We really need to win on Saturday to keep the

momentum going and into next year,” he said.

it is there that he shows her his “playroom” which is

filled with ropes, chains and whips and he explains

that he is a “dominant” who enjoys doing certain inti-

mate things but only with the full and written consent

of the woman. Ana admits that she is a virgin, a fact

that surprises him, and although reticent, while she

is considering the agreement and negotiating her

terms, she and Christian begin a sexual relationship

that includes some of the practices that Christian

desires.

Christian showers Ana with gifts and favors, such

as a new car and laptop and although she initially

consents and participates willingly to his carnal

desires, he keeps Ana emotionally distant. While still

trying to understand the terms of the “agreement”

Ana asks Christian to demonstrate how he would

"punish" her for rule breaking, which he does. For

Ana though, this is a step too far, she is upset and

tells him she has fallen in love with him, but she

knows that she can’t be what he wants her to be.

Available from May 1st on iTunes.

Fifty Shades of GreyBased on the first of a trilogy of novels by author

E. L. James, Fifty Shades of Grey was released earlier

this year to mixed reviews, however despite this it

was an immediate box office hit breaking numerous

records.

The hit film stars Dakota Johnson as 21-year-old

Anastasia (Ana) Steele, a literature student whose

whole world changes when she meets the young, yet

troubled business magnate, Christian Grey (Jamie

Dorman).

The story begins when Ana’s roommate, Kate,

becomes ill and is unable to interview the 27-year-old

entrepreneur for their college newspaper at his com-

pany headquarters in Seattle, so Ana agrees to go in

her place and right from the start the chemistry is pal-

pable between the two.

The next day, he turns up unexpectedly, and the

two meet for coffee where they talk about their fami-

lies and their lives – however when Ana asks if he has

a girlfriend, he replies, “I don’t do the girlfriend

thing,” and Ana is left confused.

On the day of her graduation, Ana celebrates with

friends, and, after drinking too much, spontaneously

calls Christian. Concerned, he goes to the bar to find

Ana, who passes out. She wakes up the next morning

in Christian's hotel room and is relieved to find out

that “nothing happened.” However, they kiss pas-

sionately before they leave the hotel and Christian

takes her home.

Later, Christian takes Ana on his private helicop-

ter to his condo in the Escala Building of Seattle and

We May Not Miss the Water But They Do

I have heard a few people complain about the

searing heat recently and a few days ago while wash-

ing my jeep I noticed a small bevy of bees that had

gathered around the tap that has a slight drip, trying

to suck up whatever moisture they could. I began

noticing them more frequently around every bit of

water and damp ground in the next few days, and

only then did it hit home to me just how dry condi-

tions have been in the BVI for the past few weeks.

It would be very difficult for anyone to have over-

looked the lack of rainfall and intensely hot condi-

tions that we’ve been experiencing recently. This is

nothing new, of course, but yet whenever this time of

year comes around, we can’t help but notice. It’s not

so much the temperatures, which are not unusually

high, but more the lack of wind that make things so

uncomfortable for most of us.

But before we start complaining too much about

the heat and lack of rainfall, spare a thought for the

not so fortunate creatures – both great and small.

While many of them may be able to seek out some

source of water; many others do not and may even

die of thirst or lose their lives trying to find water. I

have two dogs and recently their water bowls are

completely empty by the time I get home which is

unusual, So I’ve started leaving bigger bowls filled

with water in hopes it helps to combat the stifling

heat.

Water is one of the most essential elements for

life, and while we take it for granted given our fairly

efficient water supply system and the abundance of

beautiful, turquoise seawater around us, finding

potable water can be extremely difficult for many ani-

mals in such times. So as we go about our daily lives

we should pause for a moment and think about the

creatures, many of which are very important to us.

Q: Why has the hair of the actress who plays

Caroline changed on “2 Broke Girls” this season? —

Molly Gladstone, Ormond Beach, Fla.

A: It was a decision to have actress Beth Behrs

stop wearing the hair extensions that were among her

character‘s trademarks on the first three seasons of

the CBS sitcom. The Season 4 premiere even made

the new on-air “do” a plot point, when Caroline’s hair

got caught at home. Max (Kat

Dennings) offered to perform an emer-

gency cut, which Caroline then had to

get “adjusted” at a professional salon.

Q: I was impressed with Kevin

Spacey’s singing and harmonica play-

ing on the recent PBS tribute to Billy

Joel. Has he ever shown his musical tal-

ents in movies? — Evelyn Raines, via e-

mail

A: A very notable example is

“Beyond the Sea,” a 2004 biography of singer Bobby

Darin that Spacey also directed and co-wrote. Rather

than use the original recordings, Spacey performed

the tunes himself ... including such Darin standards as

the film’s title song plus Dream Lover, Splish Splash

and Mack the Knife.

In conjunction with the movie’s release, he

launched a multiple-city tour to perform live Darin

shows. Several years before that, Spacey performed

“Mind Games” in a John Lennon tribute concert. He

also starred in a New York concert last fall to benefit

the foundation named for him, which gives perform-

You Asked...We Answereding-arts scholarships and grants.

Q: Could you please print an address that would

allow me to send a sympathy card to Melissa Rivers? I

am still heartbroken about the death of her mother,

Joan. — Louise Masdea, Columbus, Ohio

A: We’d recommend sending it to her in care of the

firm that handles publicity for her: Much and House

Public Relations, 8075 W. Third Street, Suite 500, Los

Angeles, Calif. 90048.

Q: Didn’t Melanie Griffith have a

comedy series a few years back? —

John Parrish, Glen Burnie, Md.

A: She was among the stars of the

2005-06 WB Network comedy Twins

(one of the last shows that network

debuted before merging with UPN to

become The CW), in which she played

the mother of two very dissimilar sis-

ters (Sara Gilbert, Molly Stanton). That

show lasted only one season, but it had a longer run

than her next try in 2007 — CBS’ musically inclined,

Hugh Jackman-produced Viva Laughlin, which lasted

exactly two episodes.

Much earlier in her career, Griffith turned up as a

guest on such series as Starsky and Hutch, Vegas and

The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries. As she was

cementing her movie career in the 1980s, she also

appeared on a revival of Alfred Hitchcock Presents

and in an episode of Miami Vice at a time when she

was between her two marriages to the police drama’s

star, Don Johnson.

The objective is to fill the full 9x9 grid with digits

so that each column, each row, and each of the

nine 3x3 “sub-grids” that compose the main grid

contains all of the digits from 1 to 9 – with no

repeats within each row or column within the

entire square. A partially completed grid is usual-

ly provided, which typically has a unique solution.
