It’s time to put those New Year’s Resolutions to the

test as the BVI Triathlon season gets underway this

weekend. The first event, the TSC Corporate Challenge, is

set to take place this Saturday, 11th February. Following

its introduction last year, the Corporate Cup returns and

teams must be comprised of three employees from the

same company.

This fun fundraiser for the Tortola Sports Club (TSC)

will include a 750m swim, 20k bike ride and 5k run. The

swim starts at the beach at Baughers Bay at 7am, fol-

lowed by the bike ride and ending with the run.

Registration for the event will be from 6pm on Friday

evening at the TSC.

In addition to the Corporate Cup, there will also be

an Open Team category (two to three people) as well as

Men and Women’s individual categories. Last year

Deloitte ran away with the Corporate Cup while Horizon

Yacht Charters won the Open Team category.

BVI Triathlon Federation Chairman, Antony Spencer

said, “We started the Triathlon season eight years ago

and at that time there were four events. We now have six

lined up for this year and although some of the events

are more competitive than others, everyone is encour-

aged to take part. The main aim is for people to come

together and have fun.”

More events are promised through the season with

the BVI X-Tri on March 10, the National Sprint

Championships on April 28, the Anegada X-Treasure Tri

on October 21, the not to be missed BVI Steelman on

November 10 and finally the festive themed Santathon

on December 8.

So try something different and join in this fun

fundraiser this weekend – as Nike likes to say, “Just Do

It!”

Lime ... “to hang around idly” or “to go out on thetown.”Source: The Dictionary of Virgin Islands EnglishCreole by the late edu-cator and historian LitoValls. The Limin’ Times brings you all the newsabout when and where to “lime” in the BritishVirgin Islands.

True Love: Should you search for it or will it find you?

Send your questions to [email protected] and aresponse will be provided

Why do some people seem to hit it off with one per-

son and have a long happy relationship, while others flit

from one heady relationship to the next always declaring

themselves in love? Do we have a soul mate out there

that is destined to be ‘the one’ for us or do we make it

work with just about anyone once there is some compat-

ibility or mutual attraction? What better time for us to

look at this issue than now in the Valentine season.

Men and women are complex creatures – some-

times predictable, but also unique as no two human

beings are alike. For this reason, no matter how many

books we read on relationships, how many discussions

we have, how many talk shows we watch or articles we

write, while they help us better understand what has

been studied and documented by the experts, nothing

helps us to know someone more than spending time

with them, talking and learning about them up close and

personal.

I am of the opinion that true love is not a magical

destiny where there is only one other person out in the

universe that is a perfect match; how would you know

when you met that person? Would there be a burst of

fireworks in your chest? A clap of lightening in your

head? Or a pounding drum in your heart?

While attraction might entail just one big instant

kaboom, true love requires that both parties have knowl-

edge of the other – the good, the bad and the ugly. It is

not a blind acceptance since one helps their partner to

become better persons. The honesty must be there as

well as the communication and the compatibility. If there

are no common interests between the couple, one will

undoubtedly drift off to find others who share the same

or at least similar interests or passions.

For love to endure, both parties must make it work.

It takes time, effort, sacrifice, compromise and a good

sense of humour. We work hard at our studies, our jobs,

maintaining beautiful homes, etc. why then do we put lit-

tle effort into relationships and expect a magical happy

ending? Almost impossible.

True love is not elusive, except for the very lazy.

6Limin’ Times Entertainment Guide

Most of us know someone who is always making

lucky finds, they are usually the same people that hear of

that great apartment at a bargain price and by the next

week are sitting comfortably on their new balcony, relax-

ing in their decorative and attractive wicker chairs. Now I

mention wicker chairs for a reason, as I have a friend who

seems to find them and other discarded pieces of furni-

ture on a very regular basis.

When visiting her home, I will often comment on a

piece of furniture or some other piece that seems to be

new to her home. Most often, she will reply, “Oh that, I

just saw it by the side of road and thought I could do

something with it.” And do something with it, she does.

Miraculous is what I call it, as I have trouble choosing fur-

niture and household items and that is when I am in a

department store!

She is also a connoisseur of the large green rubbish

skips and it has been known for her to ask if we can slow

down as she has clearly spotted something worthy of

further investigation! Now the clue can be anything from

a spindly wicker chair leg poking out of the top of the bin

to the corner of an old (but wooden) chest of drawers.

Before you can say, “I don’t want that smelly old thing in

my car,” she is out and heaving the new treasure out of

the skip and, yes, into the car.

She does remarkable things with these items that

others have, for whatever reason, decided to part with –

and it’s a loving process. Wicker chairs will be re-woven

and cleaned or painted in a bright color. A cute contrast-

ing cushion tops off the look perfectly and the chair is

now a beautiful addition to a bedroom. The chest of

drawers are sanded back and dependent upon the

wood, either painted or varnished and the finished prod-

uct always looks amazing.

I guess in these days of recycling as much as we

possibly can, her hobby is the ultimate in being green. I

encourage her to sell her wares, mainly as I feel a bit

sorry for her husband who literally has to move things

out of the house to make room for her new finds. You do

often hear her husband say, “Don’t we already have

enough wicker chairs, and surely we don’t need any

more.” Usually he’s saying this as she is hauling yet

another find from the back of the car. Too late now, it’s

already part of the furniture you might say!

I Don’t Know How She Does It

Sarah Jessica Parker plays Kate Reddy a career-

minded mom who appears at first glance to have it all

together. She’s your typical workaholic, jet-setting

across the country and returning home to craft master-

pieces for her kid’s bake sale.

She thinks she has life under control, but her hus-

band and two kids feel a little neglected. The kids are

quickly becoming attached to the nanny, and Kate’s

husband (Greg Kinnear) could use a bit more attention.

Kate’s in a constant battle between work and family,

and she just can’t manage it all.

I Don’t Know How She Does It is remarkably relat-

able. The tale plays upon the hectic modern-day

lifestyle with ease. Douglas McGrath takes the directo-

rial reins and produces a creative set of characters.

Kate holds a prestigious position at a Boston investing

company, but she’s always a bit frazzled. Yet somehow

she manages to snag a huge promotion, while combat-

ing a serious infestation of head lice. Her perfectly

poised assistant (Olivia Munn) is particularly amusing

as Momo, a clever young go-getter with plenty of sar-

casm. Kate’s new boss (Pierce Brosnan) also entertains

with his charming good looks and subtle sense of

humor.

Aline Brosh Mckenna 27 Dresses and The Devil

Wears Prada constructs a witty, but wholesome story-

line that fits Parker perfectly. While Parker’s role as

Kate may seem slightly reminiscent of Carrie Bradshaw

Sex in the City, her relaxed, but ambitious attitude

make the film a joy to watch.

Kenny Powers has

inspired a devoted cult

following of real-world

fans — Google “Kenny

Powers tattoos” at your

own risk — but there are

still none who can com-

pare to the character’s

sidekick on Eastbound &

Down, the ever-loyal Stevie Janowski.

Steve Little embodies the lovable sycophant so

believably that many people approach him as though

they are talking not to an accomplished comedic actor

but to the sweet simpleton who thinks nothing of rear-

ranging his life to follow his washed-up ex-ballplayer idol

even while absorbing inhuman amounts of abuse from

him.

“They do confuse me with the character,” Little

says, adding that it hasn’t bothered him so far. “I think

people feel like they know you, and they also feel

endeared to you. The fact that the name is so close to

mine is actually kind of a nice thing, because if you were

Norm from Cheers, that would be kind of tough (being)

George Wendt and everyone’s calling you Norm.”

Little received directions from on high — i.e., a text

from series star Danny McBride — not to reveal any

secrets from Season 3, which originally was envisioned

as the show’s swan song (but won’t be if HBO can con-

vince McBride and company otherwise). He did say the

season — which kicks off Sunday, Feb. 19 — will be

“pretty crazy, and emotional, too,” while also confirming

that most of the action will be set in Myrtle Beach, S.C.

Viewers can also expect to see guest spots from the likes

of Will Ferrell, reprising his role as a maniacal car dealer,

and Jason Sudeikis as one of Kenny’s new minor-league

teammates. Kenny must deal with the fallout of the news

that his longtime love, April (Katy Mixon), is pregnant

with his child, while Stevie has to find room in his newly

married life with his Spanish-speaking wife, Maria (Lisa

De Razzo), to continue kowtowing to Kenny.

“Stevie Janowski is Kenny Powers’ Sancho Panza,”

McBride says. “Powers’ quest couldn’t be complete

without him. Steve Little is just as essential to the show.

His performance is my favorite part of the series. He

breaks my heart and keeps me laughing the whole

time.”

Stevie down for another season of sucking up in ‘Eastbound’

By Dean “The Sportsman” Greenaway

Tamisha Georges—like her counterparts Tyalia

Nibbs, Amadonna Creese and Aneek Peters—all have a

passion for volleyball, but noticed a chronic lack of offi-

cials to run games.

Ahead of Saturday’s BVI Amateur Volleyball

Association league opener at the Multipurpose Sports

Complex, they completed a referees course last week,

conducted by Willis Potter and Stephen Payne.

“One of the things I’ve noticed is that the sport is

not up to par with other countries—something I’ve seen

based on traveling with the national team,” Georges

noted. “Another thing I noticed is that we don’t have suc-

cession planning in any aspect of the game—not with

the national team nor refereeing. That’s one of the things

I thought would be good, if we had other referees and

representation at different regional tournaments even

internationally if it comes to that. That is where I took

interest in being able to contribute to the sport, consid-

ering we are trying to raise the quality of the game in the

BVI.”

Georges sees that it is important to have more peo-

ple involved who know about the game,

as the sport is gradually dying.

Nibbs said she had been playing

volleyball from her High School days

and wanted to get deeper into it. “I’ve

learnt things I’d never known even

though I’ve been playing volleyball for

years,” she explained. “Being a referee

really opens your eyes and shows you

there’s more to it than just playing ball.”

Creese said her interest came

about from a need to enhance the sport. “And to make a

contribution to the league,” she said. “From being a

player it will make things easier than having just one per-

son doing all the work as a referee,” she stated.

Peters said from her years of involvement she has

noted there’s not enough attention being paid to the

sport. “Realizing that, the only way was to get involved

and help keep the standard up and the sport going,” she

stated. “Last year I did a crash course and coaches told

us we either needed to learn to referee or to score.”

With her new found knowledge, Nibbs said she will

think more before doing certain things. “But getting the

opportunity to referee a game is exciting,” said Nibbs

who is also a starter in track and field. “I’m looking for-

ward to it.”

Georges agrees it definitely enhances your game as

a player. “You are more aware of things you should and

shouldn’t do and what referees would look for,” she

pointed out. “It gives you an advantage as a player.”

Creese chimes in noting that being a player-referee

gives the advantage of knowing how the rules are

applied. “With the knowledge, you can

better apply the rules accordingly,” she

said.

Peters said she has learnt different

aspects of the game which will not only

make her a better player, but she can

teach her children and others as well.

This initial step qualifies them to

officiate at the local level, it also repre-

sents the first step towards becoming a
