According to: Queerty: "Homophobia’s got a way of lasting the test of time. Massachusetts-based gay activist Aaron Chandler certainly learned that lesson this week. The 23-year old wrote in from the Grand Cayman Islands, where he and some friends are currently on vacation. Chandler explained that he, his boyfriend and some gal pals went out for a night of dancing when a police officer broke up their party to reprimand Chandler for “showing public affection” with his boyfriend. The men originally blew the copper off, but learned a lesson when, after they kissed again, the copper called for backup. There are two problems here, one more severe than the other. First, the fact that sexual policing remains on the books in this British territory confounds, but doesn’t surprise. Gibralt

A Holiday Guide To The Canary Islandsby Katy BivensThe Canary Islands are located in the Atlantic Ocean, little more than 100 miles from the coast of Africa. The weather is reputed to be the best in the world, a bit like Goldilocks' porridge: neither too hot nor too cold, and much the same all year. Average temperatures fall between 21 degrees in winter and 27 degrees in the peak of the summer.The most popular winter holiday destination in Europe, The Canary Islands are Spanish and tourism is the main industry. The islands offer a wide choice of self catering apartments and villas, most with pools.

The British Virgin Islands: Sailor's Paradiseby Barry MonteiroWith deep channels and harbors between inviting green islands and sandy cays, the British Virgin Islands are among the finest sailing areas in the world. This makes it an ideal vacation spot for anyone who loves the ocean, and especially anyone who loves boats and boating.The geography of the BVI's is remarkable. The weather throughout the islands is very stable, varying only a little with the seasons. The wind is perfect for sailing and other water sports, a Caribbean trade wind of ten to twenty-five knots or just a little more from December through February. Partly because of this stable weather, the temperature of the water is almost always swimmable, hovering within five degrees of 80 all year. Because the islands are so tig

Islands are fewer and further apart in the northern Aegean. If you want to pack more isles into a week at sea, consider Hebridean Spirit's Legacies of the Cyclades itinerary. This one starts and finishes in Rhodes, hopping through the Dodecanese and Cyclades islands by way of Halki, Folegandros, Syros, Mykonos, Amorgós and Nisyros. Plenty of variety here: Rhodes Old Town is one of the most stunning medieval survivals in Europe. Ermoupoli on Syros is an odd time-warp port – it was once the most important entrepôt in Greece, and it conceals the faded grandeur of its 19th-century neo-Classical heyday behind the clutter of a working seaport.I have been keeping quiet about Folegandros and Amorgós for many years, but the cat has crept out of the bag – these are two of the loveliest and le

Government Focus On Food Security: By Kendea Jones - Nassau, Bahamas: The government is working feverishly to help Bahamian farmers to produce their own food in the midst of a worldwide food crisis, according to Minister of Agriculture and Marine Resources Larry Cartwright.
