While speaking at a Bahamian Contractors Association (BCA) monthly luncheon, Bannister said, "Our downtown is overdue for a facelift. Old, decrepit buildings, many shut down and unoccupied. Our downtown is in need of a renaissance."

Landfill orchestra
I first heard the story on "60 Minutes" as reported by Bob Simon, who died a few days ago. It sounds like a feel-good Hollywood movie, but is the real life saga of children who live in the landfill of Cateura, Paraguay.

Neglecting Our Heritage
Dear Editor,
After reading the article on Nassau's lighthouse in today's Tribune I should like to add to the observations made by Mr. Ronald Lightbourn.

Upcoming Elections
Dear Editor,
This is a strange election for me. It is the first time that I can remember being so unexcited about an upcoming election. It seems that we as Bahamians basically have to choose either the PLP, FNM or DNA to govern us for the next five years.
It is difficult for me to be excited about supporting any of these three parties, but for different reasons. The PLP and FNM seem quite smug in ...

FNM candidate ducks customs bill
Free National Movement (FNM) candidate for North Eleuthera Rickey Mackey yesterday acknowledged owing the Bahamas Customs Department "about $9,000" in unpaid taxes dating back to 2002, but said this does not compare to what has happened to The Bahamas at the hands of the Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) government.
The Nassau Guardian contacted Mackey after PLP Chairman Bradley Roberts revealed the...

Coco-Cola Zero Sugar makes its mark on Festival RumBahamas
The fourth Festival RumBahamas was electric! The three-day festival gave event patrons a taste of Bahamian culture with unique takes on local dishes, top entertainment and of course lots of rum -- from global brands such as Bacardi, Mount Gay, and Captain Morgan, to regional and "micro-rums" such as Ron Ricardo, Plantation Rum, Bumbarra, and Afrohead. And, of course, the presence of Coca-Cola was ...
