Weakened Barry unleashes a final blast of torrential rains

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Though Tropical Depression Barry failed to unleash catastrophic flooding in New Orleans, it still swamped parts of Louisiana with up to 17 inches (43 centimeters) of rain and transformed part of the Mississippi Delta into “an ocean.”

Barry was downgraded from a tropical storm on Sunday afternoon, but its torrential rains continued to pose a threat Monday. Much of Louisiana and Mississippi were under flash-flood watches, as were parts of Arkansas, eastern Texas, western Tennessee and southeastern Missouri.

Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards urged residents to be cautious as they ventured outside after a weekend in which many had sheltered indoors.

He said he was “extremely grateful” that the storm had not caused the catastrophic floods that had earlier been forecast. More than 90 people had been rescued in 11 parishes, but there were no reports of weather-related fatalities, Edwards said.

“This was a storm that obviously could have played out very, very differently,” he said. “We’re thankful that the worst-case scenario did not happen.”

But Barry was still proving disastrous in parts of Louisiana, particularly in areas north of Lake Charles where streams and rivers were on the rise. Up to 17 inches (43 centimeters) has fallen in isolated spots in that part of the state, the National Weather Service stated in one of numerous flash flood warnings issued Monday.

In Mississippi, forecasters said 8 inches (20 centimeters) of rain had fallen in parts of Jasper and Jones counties, with several more inches possible. An additional 3 to 5 inches (8 to 13 centimeters) was expected Monday in the western part of the state, including parts of the rural Delta that have been flooded for months from the Mississippi River and its backwaters.

“The South Delta has become an ocean,” Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant wrote on Twitter on Monday.

He’s calling on the federal government to build pumps to drain water from the confluence of the Yazoo and Mississippi Rivers. The EPA shelved the project in 2008 amid concerns about wetlands and wildlife. The Trump administration has said it might reconsider that decision.

Forecasters had warned of a continued threat of heavy rains into Monday as the center of the storm trudged inland. The U.S. National Hurricane Center said Sunday parts of south-central Louisiana could still have rainfall totals of up to 12 inches (30 centimeters), with isolated pockets of 15 inches (38 centimeters).

New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell said Sunday the city was “beyond lucky” that rainfall there fell well short of early predictions of a deluge that could overwhelm the city’s pumping systems.

“We were spared,” she said at a news conference, while noting the city was ready to help nearby parishes hit harder.

About 51,000 customers in Louisiana, 1,800 customers in Mississippi and another 1,700 customers in Arkansas were without power Sunday night, according to poweroutage.us.

Edwards thanked the public for taking officials’ warnings seriously over the weekend, but he also reminded residents that it is still relatively early in the Atlantic’s hurricane season.

“Based on what we’ve experienced, I think (we will be) even better prepared for next time — and we do know that there will be a next time,” Edwards said.

Barbados reverses no visa requirements for Haitians

Barbados reverses no visa requirements for Haitians

The Barbados government says it did not have a choice in reversing the no visa requirements for Haitian nationals, according to CANA.

The island’s Ambassador to CARICOM, David Comissiong, said Bridgetown was forced to reverse its decision to allow free movement of Haitian nationals into the country without a visa because of the “large influx of persons” of Haitian nationality coming from Panama and Chile who were not entitled to work here.

He said that this was compounded because “no one in Haiti had really explained to them the principles of this free movement programme, and the vast majority of them were coming with this mistaken idea that they could simply come to Barbados to work and live, with many of them becoming stranded in Barbados.

“We derived no pleasure from having to move away from the full visa free regime, but we felt that we didn’t have a choice, and we communicated that to the Haitian Government and they understand that Barbados’ heart is with them, but we were compelled to make the change,” Comissiong said as he discussed the last week’s CARICOM summit in St. Lucia.

“You will recall that when Barbados removed the visa requirements, almost simultaneously, through the Barbados Tourism Authority, COPA airlines started two flights a week out of Panama, and the two things just happened to coincide.

“Those flights out of Panama then became available to Haitians – Haitians coming from Haiti itself, and also Haitians coming from Chile, where there is a large Haitian diaspora and those two weekly flights into Barbados came to be dominated by Haitian travellers,” Comissiong said.

The diplomat said that the situation was becoming untenable, and a decision was made after extensive consultations with several stakeholders, including the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Immigration Department, the Ministries of Tourism, and Home Affairs, the airlines and the Grantley Adams International Airport.

“We looked at every possible way in which we could solve the problem because what had started to happen is that you started to get a negative backlash from the Barbadian people because of Haitians being stranded here, and that was the last thing we wanted.

“We did not want an initiative which was supposed to be a positive and constructive regional integration initiative descending into instability and chaos, and then generating a negative response from the Barbadian people,” he added.

Comissiong said that although Haitians were not coming “with any devious intention”, they could only work and live in Barbados if they qualified under the CARICOM Skilled Nationals programme, or the Right of Establishment programme.

He admitted that Barbados had a legal responsibility to admit Haitians on the same basis as any other CARICOM citizen, noting that Barbados’ Immigration Department would “accommodate any Haitian who legitimately wishes to come to Barbados”.

“I can tell you any Haitian who legitimately needs to come to Barbados will have no problem with getting a visa, or getting permission or even getting permission to come into Barbados and to be granted a visa at the airport, so we will seek to accommodate our Haitian brothers and sisters as much as possible,” Comissiong said.

Most, if not all, CARICOM countries have imposed visa restrictions on haitians, even though the French-speaking country is a part of the 15-member grouping.

Cannabis Industry Opens in St. Vincent and the Grenadines

Cannabis Industry Opens in St. Vincent and the Grenadines

Sunday, July 14, 2019 — The first set of licences to begin producing medicinal cannabis in St. Vincent and the Grenadines were issued this week. The island’s Minister of Agriculture and Industry, Hon. Saboto Caesar, embraced the milestone noting “many challenges amidst immense opportunities.”

“The journey over the past 20 months to put the legislative and administrative frameworks in place was certainly one of the most difficult, yet gratifying, tasks I have had the opportunity to lead in my career. It was not without major challenges,” said Minister Caesar.

The Agriculture Minister further noted that the step-by-step policy guidance from Prime Minister Hon. Dr. Ralph Gonsalves, and the significant support received from his Cabinet and parliamentary colleagues at different stages of the preparatory work, contributed to the successful opening of the industry.

The Rastafarian Community in St. Vincent and the Grenadines was also identified by the Minister as a “central pillar of strength” in guiding the interaction over the period of consultation.

Throughout the process, religious leaders, civil society and international legal and business experts participated in a very open and transparent consultation process to identify and outline the potential strengths and weaknesses of the different models. This included a reliance on knowledge in certification and commodity trading from companies such as Bunny Imports and Exports of Trinidad and Tobago. The Minister stated that the role of Junior “Spirit” Cottle and the Cannabis Revival Committee could not go unrecognised.

In the interview with News784, Minister Caesar was clear that, “the work has just started.” It is our mission in St. Vincent and the Grenadines to create a globally certified industry aimed at supplying medicinal cannabis products, targeting ailments based on evidence from clinical studies. The mantra is and will continue to be “A successful medicinal cannabis industry begins and ends with science.”

Stakeholders in the industry were encouraged to set extremely high standards in research and development, marketing, labour relations, environmental protection and general corporate responsibility.

“Surviving with no trade preferences, grappling with the resultant implications of climate change on cannabis cultivation, competing with global producers, effectively regulating the industry to satisfy national and international laws, continuing to ensure food safety and food security, while at the same time balancing many unique variables will become our day to day reality,” outlined Minister Caesar.

He however confidently stated that the Unity Labour Party administration does not shy away from challenges. “The successful completion of the Argyle International Airport; the education and housing revolutions; managing the transition from a monocrop to a diversified food production platform; the expansion of our tourism and health infrastructure; obtaining a seat as a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council; and geothermal exploration are all evidence that once, as a people, we maintain our focus – we will achieve our goals.”

When asked if he was of the view that cannabis could lead to the establishment of another monocrop, Minister Caesar encouraged agriculture and fisheries stakeholders to “guard dearly our successes in the post-Hurricane Tomas rebuilding decade. Our exponential growth in fisheries, trade in livestock, food and nutrition security and efforts at food import substitution must all be further nurtured.”

Health Care Educational Outreach Group Launches In Honour of Tau ‘TJ’ Johnson

Health Care Educational Outreach Group Launches In Honour of Tau ‘TJ’ Johnson

BASSETERRE, St.Kitts (Friday 12th July 2019) – Could have the controversial death of 20-year-old Tau ‘TJ’ Johnson been prevented if proper healthcare emergency techniques were carried out at the scene of that July 2018 traffic accident along Wellington Road in Basseterre?

This media house spoke with a group member of the Tau Johnson Life & Love Initiative following this week’s launch event and spotlighted the above question during the interview.

 “Yes, and that has been one of the most important turning points for us because the social media videos were out there so persons saw how horribly he was handled and then if persons who were on scene knew what should have been happening then all the extra doubt wondering if and why could have been eliminated so we’re trying as much as possible as a group to take away the wondering from another family,” she replied.

On Sunday 7th July at the Patsy Allers Playfield in the St. Johnston’s community, the Initiative was introduced in tribute to the deceased on the observance of his 21st birthday.

The event dubbed ‘Tau Forever’ in celebration   ‘21 Years of Love & Memories’ was organised by family and friends with scores of individuals in attendance including past schoolmates of the Washington Archibald High School.

Tributes included spoken words and entertainment provided by well-known local artists such as Dejour, Collin Wyatt, AkaiiUSweet and Infamus.

In rating the launch event, the group member shared: “For us in spite of all of the emotions, we were very pleased. We were pleased with the turnout and so far very pleased with the responses we are getting still.”

As it relates to the group’s goal, she explained: “The initiative has been created to turn pain to purpose and the aim is to get the residents of St.Kitts- Nevis and the whole Federation educated and trained in first aid and urgent care procedures and manoeuvres. So in the event something happens, we all can know what to do safely and when to act …so that we can know from trained professionals the right way so that if something happens we can all act rather than standing around.”

It is understood that the group is being powered by young persons with 21 core members at present comprising of siblings, classmates, teammates and friends.

It was further explained that the group welcomes anyone to provide input, support and assistance.

A cousin of the deceased in speaking to this media expressed: “Well, I personally feel it would be really beneficial once we get the whole nation onboard to grasp the idea, especially since not enough people know how to cope and handle injured persons. It was a great idea to suggest having first aid procedures integrated into school curriculums and other social structures. I actually never learnt first aid until my occupational health and safety class at CFBC. #TAUFOREVER!”

A community resident Akiyah Dan told: “The launch event was good. I like the fact that friends and family members gathered. I hope they continue in the upcoming years to get justice for him. May his soul continue to rest in peace.”

Last year, Johnson who was known as ‘TJ’, on his 20th birthday, was involved in what police said was “a fatal accident” along Wellington Road in Basseterre after he tumbled from a motorcycle in what police described as a police chase.

An autopsy performed by forensic pathologist Dr. Valery Alexandrov determined that he died as a result of acute internal blood loss due to a ruptured aorta sustained in the vehicular accident.

The young man’s death sparked a controversial debate surrounding the police chase itself as well as how he was handled by Emergency Medical Services workers.

 ‘Justice For TJ’ was the banner of a silent protest march throughout the streets of Basseterre in July 2018.

Another protest was also carried out on the premises of the Joseph N. France General Hospital.

In June, a police press statement informed that “in an official report received from the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP) in late January 2019, it was stated that based on the evidence provided from the independent investigation and the CCTV footage, the vehicle driven by the police officer was not driven in a manner which posed a danger to the deceased or members of the public. The police were in pursuit of the deceased who failed to comply with a siren request to stop.”

According to the authorities, the report also confirmed that “an independent vehicle examiner found no evidence that the vehicle made contact with the motorbike driven by the deceased.”

It concluded that “on the evidence available, there is nothing to suggest any careless, reckless, or dangerous driving on the part of the police officer. It is not recommended that any criminal sanctions be brought against the officer involved.”

Members of the public have been bashing the report from the authorities.

Fishers, Vendors Receive Special Consideration In New Money Change

Fishers, Vendors Receive Special Consideration In New Money Change

BASSETERRE, St. Kitts (Friday 12th July 2019) – The new EC$50 polymer notes are currently in circulation around the region including St.Kitts-Nevis as the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank (ECCB) has officially embarked on phasing out paper money to the thin plastic film kind in the near future.

ECCB Governor Timothy Antoine, while speaking at the regional media launch at the ECCB Agency Office in Grenada in May this year, pointed out that fishermen and vendors were considered in the bank’s decision.

He shared that the polymer notes are designed to enhance security and usability of the EC notes.

“It is amazing to observe how commerce, banking and money have evolved over the past 3000 years; from barter to bitcoin, private money to Central Bank money and now crypto assets. Notwithstanding this long history, the fundamentals of money have not changed. Stripped to its core, money is based on trust and has three basic characteristics: unit of account, store of value and medium of exchange. To maintain trust and stay ahead of counterfeiters, our Central Bank has a duty of care; indeed an obligation to continually upgrade our notes,” he remarked.

Antoine went on to say: “I must also add today that our motivation is somewhat personal. You see on several occasions, I have been approached by fishermen and vendors; their inability to get value for their money after they’ve been soiled or torn.”

 “These stories have affected me. I have asked myself ‘How can the Central Bank help to ensure that these hard working folks get full value for their hard earned money?’ I believe the introduction of polymer notes will greatly ease that hardship,” he added.

He informed that in making recommendations to the Monetary Council, the ECCB considered the following options among polymer: Cotton paper which is what the paper notes are made from, cotton polymer combination and endurance high durability paper. 

According to the ECCB top official, from an economic standpoint, polymer notes are more cost effective than paper.

“Although polymer notes are more expensive to produce upfront, their extended lifespan means that the notes are replaced less often. Consequently, there will be a reduction in transportation and handling costs thus reducing the overall cost of cash for the ECCB commercial banks and credit unions.”

Additionally, he disclosed that as part of their due diligence, the ECCB consulted with the Bank of England, Bank of Scotland and the Bank of Canada about their experiences which they had changing from paper to polymer.

Antoine further commented that “Compared to paper notes, polymer notes are cleaner- resistant to dirt and moisture; more secure-they have advance security features which make them harder to counterfeit; more durable- they last at least three times longer than paper and they are more environmentally friendly.”

He noted: “Consequently, Fisher folks and vendors and the people of the ECCU [Eastern Caribbean Currency Union] will soon have in their hands bank notes that are cleaner, safer and stronger.”

The new EC$ 50 polymer note was scheduled for circulation in June while the $100, $20 and $10 are expected around August/September and the $5 expected to be issued in August/September 2020.

The new $50 bears the image of the late ECCB Governor Sir K. Dwight Venner.

The new notes feature raised bumps for the blind and visually impaired, and those shapes are:  circle ($5), X ($10), rectangle ($20), triangle ($50) and square ($100).

Those bumps, described as a unique tactile feature, have been used instead of braille because the ECCB recognizes that not all individuals in its member countries are able to read braille, and so common shapes have been used that everyone can recognize.

According to the ECCB, these polymer notes are produced from a thin transparent and flexible plastic film made from a versatile and complex material.

Occupational Safety and Health

Workers (People), the pursuit of knowledge is praise worthy yet learning can quickly lead to pride (a feeling of satisfaction) and a refusal to acknowledge any limits on mental abilities/possession of necessary skill or the power to do something). When that happens, the truth, the truth is ignored or rejected. Hear this: Proverbs 1 vs 7 says The FEAR of Jehovah is the beginning of knowledge; only fools despise (to look down on with contempt).

My topic for writing for this week is on alcoholism. I considered it to be a practical advice. I also have concern or fear about the drinker at the steering wheel. Now alcohol is one of several factors which often in interaction (to act on) with each to cause accidents on the road. However, it has been found to be the largest single factor responsible for fatal road crashes. Most drivers, on the weekends, as an average, have excess alcohol in their blood. Drivers, teenagers and workers, let’s take this topic serious; the cost of drunken driving, I believe is in the millions varying from ambulances, hospital treatment, police inquiries and even loss of earning to the injured.

Hear this one as well and don’t take it lightly. The higher the blood concentration (intense mental application), the greater the risk of a severe or fatal crash. Let me also say this: Very high blood alcohol concentration are unlikely to be reached by others than alcoholic drivers. However, significant impairment (damage or weaken) performance brought about by factors such as interference with judgement and concentration, increases recklessness.

As I am about to close, I wish to point out that alcoholism is one of the outstanding causes of broken home  and psychologically disturbs children (relating to the mind or mental activity). It is one of the major diseases of our time. With this understanding of this condition has come the appreciation of the need for its prevention as well as treatment.

Workers (People), let me leave you with this question: Alcoholism-Is it a symptom or disease? My dictionary says a symptom is assign indicated the presence of an illness or disease, and a disease is an unhealthy condition in a person, animal or plant which is caused by bacteria or infection continue reading is educational.

*Note Well* When wealth is gone, little is lost when health is gone, something is lost but when character is gone, all is lost.

Thank you.

Workers To Pay Over $10K For Stolen Festival Tickets

Workers To Pay Over $10K For Stolen Festival Tickets

BASSETERRE, St.Kitts (Friday 5th July 2019) – Workers at the Ministry of Tourism will have to come up with EC$10,125 altogether to pay for the 75 St.Kitts Music Festival tickets that were reportedly stolen leading up to the 23rd annual festivity.

Minister of Tourism Lindsay Grant disclosed at the Prime Minister’s press conference held on Tuesday this week (2nd July) at Government Headquarters that “unfortunately, the innocent will have to pay for the guilty.”

“I am not pointing my finger at any one individual but when you are in a position of trust and confidence that must be displayed and so they will have to come up with the $10,125 and I’ve made that pellucidly clear and that is where it’s at,” he remarked.

According to Grant, the tickets were being managed by eight to ten persons.

“Those are the persons I had the discussion with. I indicated to them that if the tickets weren’t in the office by whatever means before the end of the St.Kitts Music Festival, those who had touched or had management of the tickets would be accountable for them, meaning 75 tickets at $10, 125 they would have to account for that individually and collectively and unfortunately, the innocent will have to pay for the guilty and that’s where we’re at. Well the tickets have not shown up and so the monies must show up in the government coffers at the end of the day and that is it. I can’t see any other way; they will have to pay for them.”

 The Tourism Minister claimed that “this government is about good governance and transparency and in fact we could have said nothing about the 75 tickets because in terms of 25000 people, 75 is miniscule but immediately upon recognising that we had an infraction, we came out to the general public in a press release indicating to the general public that we had 75 tickets that we believed were for want of a better word, stolen and that we would have proceeded right away with an investigation. In fact when it came to my attention, I summoned the team within my office to a meeting and indicated to them what I understood to be the position.”

 Members of the media were alerted on Monday 24th June via a press release that the organizing committee of the St. Kitts Music Festival had confirmed that they, and the police, were currently investigating the theft of 75 general admission tickets during the course of the week before.

It was stated that an official had indicated that they are aware of exactly which tickets were stolen and had noted the serial number for each of them. 

It was also outlined that police and other security personnel were alerted and briefed. Members of the public were warned against using the tickets.
