When killers came to a rich man's playground

Article Abstract:

The murders of the crew and guests of a luxury yacht off Barbuda in Jan 1994 did considerable damage to the reputation of the eastern Caribbean islands of Antigua and Barbuda among wealthy tourists. Tourism represents 50% of the income of these islands, and the murders are therefore widely seen as an attack on the income of the islanders themselves. The trial of the three alleged killers has attracted very strong feelings among local people, who are extremely opposed to violence.

Share club investors play with pennies from hell

Article Abstract:

Investors should be aware that purchasing shares valued at extremely low levels is generally not a good way to make large sums of money. In most cases, these shares are priced so low because the market makers have decided that they are almost worthless. Their main danger resides in their bid-and-offer spread, which can actually make purchasing these shares very expensive, even though they may appear very cheap.
