Dr Phil was the genuine article
BY FRANK COX
Sunday, July 22, 2012

I am unable to address Mr Wignall’s 6th article. I write this one with the deepest of sorrow and the greatest of shame. My heart is heavy and overflowing.
There are two persons in Jamaica who define integrity. One died last Saturday. He is Dr Phillip Chamberlin better known as Dr Phil. He was the standard bearer, having only one standard — excellence. He was the genuine article.
Dr Phillip Chamberlin
1/1
No cloak can conceal our sorry faces. We did not deserve Dr Phil. Why did you have to kill him, what was his crime? He returned to Jamaica for no other purpose than to help and “big up” his great country with the latest in imaging technology, etcetera.
He knew nothing but service to his people. At the age of 70 he was still in his office working on a Saturday evening! Jamaica, what more do you want? Shame on you. You are complicit in this crime — recklessly indifferent. You sat and watched it happen.
What is certain is that you have season tickets for the next match and the one after that. You will say nothing, have seen nothing, heard nothing and you put this murder in your brimful glove compartment. Dr Phil deserves more, much more. Why did we let this happen?
It is going to be difficult, if not impossible, to bury Dr Chamberlin. With him goes kindness, compassion, ethics, gallantry, humility and the greatest of love for Jamaica. Dr Phil was always at great pains to frown. A smile was permanently affixed to his face.
We cut down our seniors in this country even faster than our mahogany trees. All the learning gone, all the experience gone, sage, work ethic, standards of excellence all squandered. Jamaica is now bereft of an irreplaceable pillar.
Doc, it may be a little while before we can say good bye. Good bye is too painful, it’s unbearable, please understand. We wish to reserve to when we join you at the place of marvel, beauty and the purest of love.
Jesus would have been called back home much sooner had there been just two more like you. Angels do come in all shapes and sizes. Poor Gabriel, he has nothing on you!
I shed tears for Dr Phil. Grief is overwhelming. This writer has never met Dr Phillip Chamberlin.
I am forever grateful to the Observer for allowing me to use this space in dedication to a man for whom adjectives abound and tears flood.

WTF AFRICA- SEX POTION KILLS WOMAN

Woman dies of SEXUAL PLEASURE during intercourse

A 23-YEAR-OLD woman from Mberengwa District died when she was having sex with her husband after the couple had allegedly taken a concoction to improve their sexual performance, police confirmed yesterday.

The woman has been identified as Janet Moyo of Mbongolo Village under Chief Mahlebadza. Acting police spokesperson for Midlands Province Assistant Inspector Emmanuel Mahoko said police officers who attended the incident, which occurred on Monday last week, took the concoction the woman was said to have taken before she engaged in sexual intercourse with her husband.

“We confirm a sudden death incident in which a Mberengwa woman is said to have died while in bed with her husband at around 4am on Monday last week. Police who attended the scene recovered the powdered concoction, which the woman was said to have used before getting into bed with her husband. Police are, however, still conducting investigations,” said Asst Insp Mahoko.

A witness told said Moyo died because of “too much sexual pleasure” after taking the unidentified traditional concoction to enhance her sexual pleasure.

He said the woman is said to have got the concoction from a local traditional healer after she complained that she was not enjoying sex with her husband, identified as Mr Takaedza Zhou.

“The woman had just been recently married to Mr Zhou but was complaining that she was not enjoying sex with her husband. She later consulted a local traditional healer (name supplied) who normally assists both men and women in the village in that regard and was given the concoction. It, however, backfired when she started producing strange sounds during sex with her husband and died in the process,” said a villager.

Mr Zhou confirmed that his wife died while they were engaged in sex but refused to shed more light on the matter.

“I don’t want to say much about the incident, the police took the concoction which my wife had taken and we are still waiting for the post-mortem to ascertain what caused her death. You can get in touch with the police,” said Mr Zhou, a teacher at a local school.

Asst Insp Mahoko said the woman’s body was taken to Masase Mission Hospital for a post-mortem.

JAMAICA 50-MUSIC SELL OF

First Listen: ‘Out Of Many: 50 Years Of Reggae Music’
by JACOB GANZ


text size A A A July 22, 2012
The concept of the compilation Out of Many: 50 Years of Reggae Music is simple. 50 years ago, Jamaica won independence from the British-ruled West Indies Federation. Around that same time, popular music in Jamaica began solidifying into some of the many sounds we now think of as reggae. Out of Many tells those two stories in parallel, with one song selected to represent the sound of each year from 1962 to 2012.

There’s a third story, too: that of VP Records, the label responsible for the compilation itself, and the family behind the label. The “V” and “P” in VP Records are Vincent and Patricia Chin, the Chinese-Jamaican owners of Randy’s Records, a shop that opened in Kingston in 1961. Vincent also opened a recording studio called Studio 17 and produced many early ska and rocksteady songs. The family started VP in 1979 after moving to New York as a way of distributing popular Jamaican music to the United States. It’s now the largest independent reggae label in the world.

It’s only natural that the three stories should twist into one: Randy’s Records, Studio 17 and later VP have been there for nearly every step in reggae’s development, from a hyper-local folk art to international force. The opening song on Out of Many, a celebratory historical narrative called “Independent Jamaica,” was recorded in 1962 in Studio 17 by the Trinidadian singer Lord Creator and produced by Vincent Chin; it was also the first single Chin released. Like so many Jamaican records that would follow, it speaks directly to its audience of specific events they knew personally — in this case, the effort to win independence.

From there, Out of Many follows the developing musical history of the island like a three-hour fireworks show: it moves from ska (“Malcolm X”;) to rocksteady (“Take It Easy”;) in the 1960s; lovers rock (“Everything I Own”;) and roots (the socio-economic warning shot “Fade Away” and the apocalyptic “Two Sevens Clash”;) in the ’70s; the tightly-wound electronic riddims that arose in the ’80s (a string of hits including “Under Me Sleng Teng” and “Rumours”;) and dancehall (“Who Am I” and “Get Busy”;) that has dominated since the ’90s.

All the music here was made to pull you onto the dance floor, but if you slow down and listen with an open mind (and many open browser tabs), it’s also an education in the complex, layered history of a nation, a record label and a family. These songs are distracting, though, in the best way. Good luck staying off the dance floor for long.
