Yesterday, the people of the remote community of Ginger Hill in St Elizabeth continued to reel after masked hoodlums pumped countless shots into Ezra Wright, 73; Archibald Brown, 61 and his 58-year-old brother, George, killing them on the spot.
The fourth man, Morris Sanderson, 41, died in hospital, later Wednesday night. The haunting spectre of anguish, grief and fear robbed the placid farming community of not only the four senior community members, but its innocence as well.

Dried blood, broken bottles and numerous bullet punctured holes in the wooden walls of the shop, served as testimony of the agony of the night. It was a night when two brothers - both senior citizens - met tragic ends as they celebrated the birthday milestone of a golden ager whose life was also snuffed out in the carnage.
And yet again, a group of domino players became the unsuspecting targets of marauding murderers. While murderous rampage is somewhat commonplace in some communities, not so in the placid hills of St Elizabeth.
The killings sparked untold fear in the hearts of residents. For the people, losing four of their own in one fell swoop, is too much to bear. "We can't feel good, this has traumatised everyone in the community," lamented Conroy Wright, son of 73-year-old Ezroy Wright, the operator of a shop. It was Wright who was celebrating his birthday when the hoodlums struck.

The younger Wright told The Gleaner the masked men also cleared goods out of the small shop. Ezra's wife, Merl Wright, sat in a silent daze beside her sister, Juliet Billings. Wright's brother, Rupert Smith, also appeared distraught.
"Me can't believe me one brother dead and leave me alone," Smith moaned. "Them kill me brother without a cause." more

MATH PUZZLE : Here's The Answer To That Fruit Math Puzzle That's Driving Everyone Coconuts.... What's half a coconut plus one apple plus three bananas? Is the answer 12, 14, 16, 18 or 20. Go to www.RulaBrownNetwork.com for the correct answer.

 02/18/2016 02:01 am ET It's one of those Facebook posts that's all over the place, and -- like " the dress " or the  hidden panda  -- everyone seems to have a different take on it.  What is half a coconut plus one apple plus three bananas?  On the surface, it would seem the apple has a value of 10, the bananas a value of four and the coconut a value of two. And if that were the end of the story, the answer would be 2 + 10 + 4 = 16.  But in the final frame, the fruit are slightly different.  There is half a coconut, instead of two halves in the earlier example equation that establishes a value of two. And instead of the four bananas representing the value of four, there are just three bananas.  If the numbers are reduced along with the portions of fruit, you get a totally different answer: 1 + 10 + 3 = 14.   Which is the correct answer? Like the dress, the answer is in how you see it.... See Rula Brown'...
