KINGSTON, Jamaica – The Ministry of Youth and Culture says it has become aware that a man who gives his name as ‘Brian Payne’ has been falsely representing himself as recruiter for the Ministry.

The Ministry in a release said that it received a complaint from Crescent Primary School that the man had “hired” young people to assist teachers at the school with the promise that they would be recompensed by the Ministry.

The Ministry noted that is not familiar and is not associated in any way with the activities of ‘Brian Payne’.  Additionally, the Ministry of Youth and Culture does not hire assistants for teachers in schools.

The Youth Ministry further advised all schools that have been approached by ‘Brian Payne’ or anyone else with a similar proposal to report it to the Ministry of Education for advice and guidance.

Harbour View's Brian Brown to Philadephia Union F.C. in USA

After his break-out season in the Red Stripe Premier Football League during which he topped the charts with 18 goals, Harbour View striker Bryan “Rambo” Brown will get a chance to leave his foot-prints on the foreign stage.

The former Rusea’s High striker has joined MLS club Philadelphia Union on loan until the end of their season in November. 

The deal came on the back of an impressive one-week trial stint with the club.

Harbour View’s general manager Clyde Jurideini, says it will be beneficial to all the parties involved even though the financial benefits will not be much.

“The market has changed drastically downwards and largely in a World Cup year, as you would expect it is largely on those 32 countries, at the World Cup”, Jurideini commented. “This is the second half of the season so the team is not in their primary part of the system” he further stated.

Jurideini quickly noted that the monetary value is nothing extravagant. “It is a small remuneration and it is a loan, it is not a transfer, so it is minimal at the moment, but the opportunity for the player and for the club, is what is greater”.

Brown will join goal keeper Andre Blake as the Jamaicans at the club.

Meanwhile, St. George’s midfielder Martin Davis, who also represents Harbour View, is at Toronto F.C. for a two-week trial.

If successful, he could join their youth academy next season.

Restaurant operator Brian Lumley claims ... Stylysh wasn"t banned

Curtis Campbell, STAR Writer

Restaurant operator Brian Lumley has denied allegations made by some websites that he banned dancehall artiste Stylysh from performing at his restaurant-entertainment venue ’689 By Brian Lumley’.

According to Lumley, whose restaurant is located on Trinidad Terrace, New Kingston, Stylysh and her team made arrangements to host her ‘Stylysh and Friends Concert’ at the venue via a third party, however, the nature of the event does not complement the goals of ’689 By Brian Lumley’.

The restaurant operator says he has no problems with dancehall music, but his restaurant is not the right place for a hardcore event.

misled

“The show wasn’t banned. They had an arrangement with a third party. They were misled by the third party, and they should be careful because I don’t want anybody calling my name. I am a typical Jamaican who loves every genre of music, but there is a time and a place for everything. There are guidelines which I have to follow as a corporate citizen and with my obligations, and I cant promote that show here,” he said, seemingly disturbed by the allegations.

Stylysh, on the other hand, told THE STAR that Lumley pulled the plug on her concert because of her promotional flyers.

“Everything was agreed on and we started promoting. However, when the flyer started to circulate, Brian Lumley started to complain … . But that’s just how he feels. He said he don’t want it in his venue, so we just moving it to a next venue,” Stylysh said.

The deejay, who is also signed to Tommy Lee Sparta’s Guzu Music, said she made changes to the flyer to satisfy the operators of the restaurant, but that didn’t work.

Stylysh’s concert will now be held on July 10 at Gentry Mingle and Mellow, located at Clock Tower Plaza, 10 Half-Way Tree. The show will also feature performances from Tommy Lee Sparta, Destiny Sparta, Tabeta Cshae, and Ishawna.

The event will commence at 8 p.m. and patrons will be charged $1,000.
