Secretary of the Interior Dirk Kempthorne will be in the USVI today and tomorrow (Aug. 21-22) to fulfill his promise to visit all U.S. territories, for which he has significant oversight responsibility as Secretary of the Interior. He will be joined by Governor John deJongh, Delegate Donna Christiansen and other VI leaders at various events in STX, STT and STJ.

The International Herald Tribune seems to report all the negative news about the VI as their latest AP release reported a Palestinian immigrant was found shot dead on St. Croix on Monday.

US Housing and Urban Development has awarded $1,373,406 to the V.I. Community AIDS Resource & Education (VICARE) to help AIDS patients find a stable home, and receive the necessary services to manage their illnesses.

And in the latest melee, one of our users has posted that John Edwards baby momma was in STX and this NY Daily News article also says ”Rielle fled to St. Croix on eve of cheating flap.”
