Parliamentarian Brennen dies

FORMER Prime Minister Hubert Ingraham yesterday mourned the death of former Parliamentarian Bruce Brennen, who he described as a man of “great integrity”.

Mr Ingraham said the loss of Mr Brennen, one year short of his centenary, “marks the close of another of the early chapters of the making of the modern Bahamas”.

He said: “A contractor by trade, Mr Brennen was a gentleman of the old school. He served in both Houses of Parliament, as vice president of the Senate and as the member of Parliament for the St Agnes constituency.

“In the early years following the attainment of Majority Rule, he served on a number of government boards including the Bahamas Electricity Corporation and the Airport Licensing Authority. I was pleased to serve as a member of the Airport Licensing Authority during his chairmanship.

“Mr Brennen may be aptly described as a man of great integrity and quiet dignity whose decorum and standards are worthy of emulation by later generations of Parliamentarians and indeed by all citizens.

“He demonstrated good manners at all times and even in the thrust and parry of Bahamian politics his civility was unfailing.

“On my own behalf and that of my wife Delores, I extend condolences to his children and to his extended family. May he rest in peace.”

I am so sorry for Bruce Brennen. He told: "the key to achieving your long-term financial objectives is planning". I also heard that he has <a href="http://www.whatishowto.net/2013/06/25/h…">fun accessories</a>.

I guess that vaping wax might smell more than tincture. Is there a huge difference from vaping tincture and wax itself as far as taste? How it is your <a href="http://techandscience.com/techblog/Show…">vaping experience</a>?

In any sound system, ultimate quality depends on the speakers. The best recording, encoded on the most advanced storage device and played by a top-of-the-line deck and amplifier, will sound awful if the system is hooked up to poor <a href="http://www.phuketprovincial.com/how-to-…">speakers</a>.
