14-yr-old girl was shot and injured at home in Doe Lodge, St Ann, this morning. The St Hilda’s High student, was shot around 1:41 AM. The attackers allegedly stole a blue Toyota Voxy from the premises as they fled. Police are investigating. #CVMTV will have more on this #CRIME

I had to get a police record. The process worked seamlessly. The office is cool & comfortable & clean. Smell alright too. Staff were brisk & courteous. Felt good about seeing my taxes put to good use in this instance.

A friend of mine was getting married, and despite her parents’ nasty divorce, she was excited about her big day. Her mom had found a beautiful dress to wear to the wedding when she found out her ex-husband’s much younger new wife had bought the exact same one! The bride begged her dad’s new wife to pick something else, but she refused. “No way! I look great in this dress, and I’m wearing it!” When her mom heard what happened, she just smiled and said, “Don’t worry, honey. I’ll find something else. It’s your big day, and I don’t want to cause any problems.” A few days later, they went shopping and found an even prettier dress. While they were having lunch, the bride asked, “Mom, what are you going to do with the first dress? It’s not like you’ll have another occasion to wear it!” Her mom smiled and said, “Oh, don’t worry, sweetheart. I’m wearing it to the rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding!”

🔘 DEVELOPING: Jamaica restricting official travel until end of March 2027 The Jamaican Government has imposed an immediate ban on official overseas travel by ministers and public sector officials until March 31, 2027, except in special circumstances. This coincides with mounting scrutiny on government spending amid a slow Hurricane Melissa recovery and rising inflation, one year after the disaster. ▫️The directive, issued by Cabinet Secretary Audrey Sewell, applies across the public sector, regardless of whether travel is funded by taxpayers or external organisations.  ▫️The Government says the unprecedented destruction caused by Hurricane Melissa demands strict spending controls, with financial resources and the attention of senior officials focused on reconstruction, economic recovery and public services. ▫️ Previously approved trips must be reviewed, while non-essential conferences, training and ceremonial engagements should be deferred or conducted virtually. ▫️Overseas travel may only be permitted for post-Melissa reconstruction and recovery, national security, approved board meetings, essential tourism promotion and genuine emergencies of compelling national importance. ▫️ All exceptions require prior written approval from the Cabinet Secretary, supported by justification of the necessity of the trip, cost and expected benefits.
