Billion dollar wreck
A British ship laden with precious treasure has reportedly been found off the coast of Guyana. The ship, believed to have been torpedoed by the German U-87 submarine in 1942, apparently went down with gold, platinum and diamonds worth billions of dollars.

Obama street

Creole dictionary
The first comprehensive dictionary of the English/Creole languages of Trinidad and Tobago has been published.

Winer draws from a wide range of  sources to show the wealth and depth of the language.

Grenada cover up
Be careful where you wear your bikini or speedos in Grenada: police are enforcing an indecent exposure law banning bathing suits away from the beach – as well as saggy pants that reveal underwear. Violators are usually just ordered to cover up, but the law allows for a $270 fine or six months in jail.
