Originated in Jamaica in the late 1950s, Ska came before musical styles such as Rocksteady and Reggae. Ska is a combined musical element of Caribbean Mento and Calypso with a bit of American Jazz and also Rhythm and Blues. It separates itself from other musical genres due to its walking bass line accented with rhythms on the upbeat. In the early 1960s, Ska was the dominant music genre of Jamaica and was popular with the other communities as well, including the British Community.

Menopause is signaled by 12 months since last menstruation.

Common symptoms include hot flashes and vaginal dryness. There may also be sleep disturbances. The combination of these symptoms can cause anxiety or depression.

Menopause is a natural process with treatments that focus on symptomatic relief. Vaginal dryness is treated with topical lubricants or estrogens. Medications aimed at reducing the severity and frequency of hot flashes include venlafaxine and gabapentin. In special circumstances, oral hormone therapy may be prescribed.

Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are infections that are passed from one person to another through sexual contact. The causes of STDs are bacteria, parasites, yeast, and viruses. There are more than 20 types of STDs, including

ChlamydiaGenital herpesGonorrheaHIV/AIDSHPVSyphilisTrichomoniasis

Most STDs affect both men and women, but in many cases the health problems they cause can be more severe for women. If a pregnant woman has an STD, it can cause serious health problems for the baby.

Antibiotics can treat STDs caused by bacteria, yeast, or parasites. There is no cure for STDs caused by a virus, but medicines can often help with the symptoms and keep the disease under control.

Correct usage of latex condoms greatly reduces, but does not completely eliminate, the risk of catching or spreading STDs.

ear-death experiences have gotten a lot of attention lately. The 2014 movie Heaven Is for Real, about a young boy who told his parents he had visited heaven while he was having emergency surgery, grossed a respectable $91 million in the United States. The book it was based on, published in 2010, has sold some 10 million copies and spent 206 weeks on the New York Times best-seller list. Two recent books by doctors—Proof of Heaven, by Eben Alexander, who writes about a near-death experience he had while in a week-long coma brought on by meningitis, and To Heaven and Back, by Mary C. Neal, who had her NDE while submerged in a river after a kayaking accident—have spent 94 and 36 weeks, respectively, on the list. (The subject of The Boy Who Came Back From Heaven, published in 2010, recently admitted that he made it all up.)

MOONLIGHT SO BRIGHT

You appeared at a time of turmoil,

A bright beacon among our toil.

We looked up at your glow in awe,

In your light a new hope we saw.

Great was our distress at events,

In your glow stewed contentment.

Now with your arrival came insight,

As we sought to address our blight.

The Beacon you are for our sight,

That shows the path is in The Light.

The travails on this earthly plain,

May seem to become a runaway train.

But in the grand scope of the universe,

Only a tiny footnote, a very tiny verse.

This too shall pass into man's  history,

Another bump in the road of destiny.

So much more to be accomplished,

Foolhardy us are to be admonished.

All that happens brings a new moon,

Opens eyes and make many swoon.

On this tiny speck in billions of specks,

The human experience is circumspect.

So much to be learnt, still not gleaned,

From the stars, answers are beamed.

Yes, there was music in Jamaica before Ska. Mento, the root of our African heritage, Big band dance music from our colonial heritage and American jazz and popular music.In today's episode, Freddie Campbell will show how this music has captured the imagination of people outside of our West Indian origins by talking with his guest who was so captured by the rhythm that, at a late stage of his life, he started a band to play ska and even went back to school to learn to play the sax..
