ASSISTANT coach of the Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR) women’s team Merissa Aguilleira said the family atmosphere and camaraderie within the TT franchise is something she has never experienced before. That unity propelled TKR women to the inaugural Massy Women’s Caribbean Premier League (WCPL) crown, on Sunday.

TKR defeated Barbados Royals by ten runs in the final at Warner Park in Basseterre, St Kitts.

The TKR men’s franchise have called themselves a family for years.

Aguillieira said she experienced similar cohesiveness.

“TKR I think is the first team that I got to experience where you felt like everyone appreciated you, they care about you, they want the best for you and they are looking after you,” Aguilleira said.

“I think TKR is a family. All of us came together, we started to gel. We had dinners, meetings (and) game nights. You just felt love…everyone is for you.”

TKR have used the slogan ‘We are TKR’.

Aguilleira said the TT franchise operates in that fashion as all members of TKR play their part to make you comfortable.

The TKR men’s players were cheering on the TKR women during the final.

Aguilleira did not realise the men’s players were there initially, but was glad they took the time to support the women.

“We really supported each other and seeing the men out there (was special). I told the players when I heard them started to support I did not even realise they were there and just looking at them and seeing (Kieron) Pollard and (Nicholas) Pooran, the coaches, the CEO (managing director Venky Mysore), everyone just there cheering them on. I think that was something that you would have never experienced. It would last a lifetime…that is a memory you would cherish.”

Aguilleira said the men’s players are usually the “superstars” and the women will cheer for them, so it was pleasing to see the roles reversed.

Aguilleira said other franchises can “pattern” TKR’s system.

Recapping the title winning run, Aguilleira said it was collective effort by all the players.

“One thing I must say the effort from all the players (was exceptional). It was extremely well done. We asked the girls to give it their all and they did.”

Two of TKR’s senior players led the way in Sunday’s final as captain Deandra Dottin and vice-captain Anisa Mohammed delivered quality performances.

Dottin struck 59 off 62 deliveries and Mohammed grabbed 3/16 in 3.4 overs.

Aguilleira, a former West Indies women’s captain and wicket-keeper, was glad the experienced players delivered.

“We asked the senior players to try and step up and someone put up their hand in order to get us over the line and that is exactly what Anisa Mohammed and Deandra Dottin did.”

Speaking more about the team atmosphere, Aguilleira said, “I think everyone put out a good effort and I want to commend the entire team for what they did.”

Decline in regional pass rate for CSEC mathematics, English language Loop Barbados

Black Immigrant Daily News

The content originally appeared on: Barbados News

Several subjects sat by students in this year’s Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate (CSEC) and Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examination (CAPE) recorded declines in their overall pass rates.

CSEC mathematics and English language are among them.

This was outlined by Director of Operations at the Caribbean Examination Council (CXC), Dr Nicole Manning, at a press conference in St Lucia on Monday, to release the results of the 2022 CXC exams.

Manning explained that this year’s exams faced challenges, including the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and a deferral of the exams by three weeks to facilitate student preparations.

Starting with the results for CAPE, she advised that in Caribbean Studies, there was a reduction in the performance of students who achieved grades one and two.

However, the passes for candidates who attained grade three were stable, while there was increase in the number of students attaining grades four and five when compared with the 2021 sitting.

In Communication Studies, 92 per cent of the Caribbean candidates passed those exams. This, according to Manning, represents a reduction from last year’s pass rate.

She said there was also a reduction in the number of students attaining grades one and two in the subject, but stable in grade three and increases in the number of people attaining grades four and five.

“In Information Technology Unit One, we saw a reduction for both grades one and two, an increase for grades three onwards to five, and an overall reduction for Unit One,” Manning outlined.

However, for Unit Two in that subject area, there was a 96 per cent increase in the number of students passing the exam, with the number of candidates achieving grades one and two increasing when compared to last year’s preliminary data.

For Food and Nutrition Unit One, there was no candidate across the Caribbean who achieved a grade one pass, representing a reduction.

In contrast to Unit Two, there is a four per cent increase in the number of students passing with grades one. Overall, the pass rate for that unit has risen by 97 per cent, Manning stated.

CAPE Law was one of the subjects where student performances remained consistent, with Unit One having an “overall all-time high” pass rate of 93 per cent, Manning reported.

In CSEC, there was a regional reduction in passes for English A.

While not providing the regional pass rate for the subject, Manning said there was stability relative to the 19 per cent of students who sat the exams achieving grades one.

At the same time, the number of Caribbean students receiving grades two and three declined.

The performance of regional students in Mathematics declined to 37 per cent, Manning informed.

“For Mathematics, we saw a reduction for grades one and two, but stability at grade three,” she advised.

For English B (Literature), there was an increase in students attaining passes of grades one and two, and a reduction of passes with grade three.

But there was an overall increase in passes from 63 per cent last year to 72 per cent in 2022.

The pass rate for Biology for the 2022 CSEC exams is 78 per cent, while the pass rate for Chemistry declined to 59 per cent.

“While we saw an increase in grades three (in Chemistry), we saw a reduction at grades one and two,” Manning disclosed.

“Now, Chemistry, of course, like Biology… is a very practical and hands-on subject. So, we are looking as we go back to face-to-face for some improvements in this area, because those components where we saw the reduction, I believe would have been major alignment with the fact that candidates would have been out,” she explained.

Physics declined to 64 per cent this year, in comparison to the 67 per cent pass rate recorded last year.

There was a 69 per cent increase in the pass rate for Principles of Accounts, while Principles of Business also recorded an increase of 80 per cent.

Social Studies also had a decrease in both overall performance rate and the number of students attaining grades one, two and three when compared to previous years.

Students were expected to receive their results at approximately 6pm Monday.

CXC CEO tells sitters not to let their grades define or deter them Loop Barbados

Registrar and CEO of CXC(R) Dr Wayne Wesley wishes all students who wrote their exams during the May/June 2022 sitting “all the best” and wants them and their parents to understand these grades are not the end all and be all for their academic journey and ultimate success.

He said:

“I want to say to our students that regardless of the grade you receive, it is only a moment, a time and it does not define your final destiny.

“Whatever you achieve now, it is preparing you for greater things to come.

“This initiation is igniting within you a passion for greatness, one that you will only achieve with constant dedication and commitment to your purpose in life.”

He told the students who received their final grades on September 5, unless they requested an early return on September 2, that in many instances their parents and guardians were denied some of the opportunities that they are afforded now in these 21st Century times, and therefore, she should remember to show their gratitude and make the most of their available chances. He urged, for many education is also a way out.

Dr Wesley said “some of us as we grow, our parents did not benefit from the education that we received” but they have supported you. Therefore, “It is moments like these that you must capitalise on in showing that you’re born for greatness.

“Education represents the key for transformation for most of us, your dreams, your aspirations is important to be fostered, to be nurtured and despite setbacks, knowing that every setback is a greater setup, is a setup for a greater come back.

“And you can achieve despite what is happening around us. COVID-19 tested us, our resolve, our resilience, but we stood in moments of great difficulty in ensuring that the region did have an examination to sit.

“I wish you all the best!”

Le second suspect des attaques meurtrières au…

Black Immigrant Daily News

Le second suspect des attaques de dimanche au Canada était toujours introuvable mardi malgré la mobilisation de centaines de policiers et une intensification de la traque dans la communauté autochtone frappée par le drame.

Le village épicentre des agressions, qui ont fait 10 morts et 18 blessés, est resté en alerte plusieurs heures mardi, avec le déploiement de nombreuses forces de l’ordre qui pensaient que le suspect pouvait se trouver sur les lieux.

Les journalistes de l’AFP sur place ont vu de nombreux véhicules de police et un hélicoptère survoler la zone, complètement interdite d’accès. Mais quelques heures plus tard, l’alerte a été levée.

La police est à la recherche de Myles Sanderson, soupçonné, avec son frère Damien Sanderson, d’être responsable des attaques à l’arme blanche de dimanche, dont le motif reste obscur.

Alors que Myles Sanderson est toujours introuvable, la police a demandé mardi aux habitants de rester “prudents”. Cette grande chasse à l’homme se déroule dans une zone rurale immense du centre du pays, représentant trois fois la taille de la France.

“Myles est armé et dangereux”, rappellent les forces de l’ordre dans un communiqué. Ces dernières ont par ailleurs précisé qu’il était âgé de 32 ans, et non 30 ans comme indiqué les jours précédents.

Connu des services de police et de la justice, ce suspect, qui pourrait lui-même être blessé, était déjà recherché depuis mai dernier pour ne pas avoir respecté son contrôle judiciaire. Il avait été condamné à près de cinq ans d’emprisonnement, notamment pour vol.

Lundi, son frère a été retrouvé mort, portant sur le corps plusieurs blessures par arme blanche, à proximité des lieux des crimes de la veille. Les circonstances de sa mort restent à éclaircir, mais il pourrait avoir été tué par son frère, selon la police.

Le Premier ministre canadien Justin Trudeau a répété mardi que le maximum de moyens étaient employés “pour pouvoir mettre un terme à cette situation”. Et enfin “permettre aux gens de faire leur deuil sans crainte” après cet “événement horrible et traumatisant”.

– Peur –

Les meurtres ont touché d’abord cette communauté autochtone à James Smith Cree Nation, puis la ville voisine de Weldon, dans la Saskatchewan.

Mardi, dix patients étaient toujours hospitalisés et trois restaient dans un état critique, selon les autorités sanitaires.

“Nos vies ne seront plus jamais les mêmes”, a raconté à l’AFP Ruby Works, 42 ans qui habite à Weldon. “Les gens ont peur de sortir de chez eux”, a poursuivi celle qui pleure la mort de son ami de trente ans, Wes Peterson, tué dimanche.

Aujourd’hui, les gens “s’enferment. Ils ont peur. Ils pourraient revenir et recommencer”, glisse-t-elle avant de confier qu’elle-même ne pourra pas dormir “tant qu’ils ne l’auront pas attrapé”.

D’après la police, certaines victimes ont été ciblées quand d’autres ont été frappées au hasard. Mais la grande majorité d’entre elles sont autochtones.

– “Déjà assez souffert” –

Sur les réseaux sociaux, de nombreux membres de la communauté crie (l’une des Premières nations du Canada), dont sont issus la majorité des victimes, exprimaient leur tristesse et leur effroi. Et les messages appelant Myles Sanderson à se rendre se multipliaient.

La communauté a déjà connu des épisodes de violence. L’an passé, quasiment jour pour jour, une fusillade y avait fait deux morts.

Au Canada, les autochtones représentent environ 5% des 38 millions d’habitants, et vivent dans des communautés souvent ravagées par le chômage et la pauvreté.

Selon les derniers chiffres officiels, 50% de la population de la communauté a moins de 24 ans et le taux de chômage y est de 24%. Plusieurs responsables ont également pointé du doigt les problèmes de drogue et d’alcool ainsi que des difficultés liées au traumatisme générationnel causé par un siècle d’abus, notamment dans des pensionnats créés pour les autochtones.

Darryl Burns, dont la soeur a été tuée dimanche et qui connaissait les deux suspects, a expliqué aux médias locaux que les frères étaient des “produits des pensionnats” – même s’ils ne les avaient pas eux-mêmes fréquentés – et “avaient beaucoup de colère”.

“La bataille que nous menons ici n’est pas entre nous… La bataille que nous menons ici est contre l’alcoolisme et la consommation de drogues”, a-t-il ajouté.

Ces dernières années, le Canada a vécu une succession d’événements d’une violence rare pour le pays.

En avril 2020, un tireur s’étant fait passer pour un policier avait tué 22 personnes en Nouvelle-Ecosse. En janvier 2017, six personnes avaient péri et cinq ont été blessées dans des attaques contre une mosquée de Québec.

DNA Warns the Browne Administration to Stop Politicizing Gas Prices

/0 Comments/in /by

Black Immigrant Daily News

The content originally appeared on: Antigua News Room

The Democratic National Alliance (DNA) believes that the government of Antigua and Barbuda must provide citizens and residents with significant relief from the heavy burden of the very high cost of living and stop playing politics with price of gas and diesel at the pump and give meaningful reduction to reflect the true realities of the energy sector!

Anthony Stuart, DNA’s Candidate for All Saints West and spokesperson on Finance, Statutory Bodies, and Government owned entities including WIOC said, “the cost of a barrel of crude oil on the world market today is about US$90.00 representing a decrease of about US$50.00 from a high of US$140.00 at the peak of the Russia/Ukraine war. Towards the end of May/beginning June 2022, the Government increased the price at the pump by 25% or EC$5.00 per gallon over March 2022 prices which represents a ratio of about EC$1.00 increase at the pump for every US$10.00 increase in the cost of crude oil on the world market.”

Stuart, who has been keenly studying and following developments in the global energy sector further said, “the refining cost has also fallen steeply while the transportation logistics have greatly improved resulting in a reduction in shipping costs.”

In a passionate plea to the government Stuart stated, “the cost of crude oil on the world market of US$90 today for a barrel was the same average cost in 2021 with near similar refining and shipping costs when the price for a gallon of gas was EC$12.50 and a gallon of diesel was EC$12.20. Back then, the government collected EC$47.5 million in consumption tax; therefore, the reduction in the price of gas and diesel at the pump from tomorrow, September 7, 2022, should follow the same ratio as the increase of EC$1.00 for every US$10.00 which the government imposed in May and therefore, should cause a decrease in the gas price to no more than EC$12.50 and diesel price to no more than EC$12.20.”

The DNA is not persuaded by Prime Minister Gaston Browne’s subsidy argument which is designed to justify the government’s unconscionable refusal to provide relief to the people. Stuart opined, “talk by the Prime Minister about the government paying WIOC millions in subsidies monthly for the last several months is a big, fat, smoking red herring because there have been price adjustments at the pump for almost every shipment since March 2022; I therefore call on the Prime Minister and his government to exercise the transparency they always tout and release the price build-up on every price adjustment as was done with the first price increase at the pump in March 2022.”

Para-judo: Premier podium international pour Romuald Raboteur

Black Immigrant Daily News

The content originally appeared on: Guadeloupe FranceAntilles

Déçu de sa troisième place au championnat de France en juin dernier, c’est encore sur cette marche du podium que le judoka du club Maeda des Abymes a terminé lors des championnats d’Europe en Italie à Cagliari (Sardaigne) le week-end dernier.

Suite à sa préparation avec l’Equipe de France à Sophia Antipolis (Alpes-Maritimes) en août, le sociétaire du club Maeda des Abymes est parti directement pour l’Italie. Comme à chaque compétition, il faut arriver deux jours plus tôt pour faire les classifications visuelles qui permettent aux judokas de déterminer leur catégorie : J1 (non voyant) ou J2 (malvoyant). Le judoka s’était parfaitement préparé pour cette échéance internationale. « La préparation de cet été avec Jimmy Guillou en Guadeloupe et l’équipe de France aussi bien physique, technique et tactique a été prépondérante. J’abordais donc ces championnats dans de meilleures conditions que ceux de 2019 », annonce Romuald Roboteur. « On a travaillé sur la tactique » explique Jimmy Guillou avant de détailler. « Nous n’avons pas eu beaucoup de séances car je n’étais qu’un appui à l’entraînement de son coach Nicolas Moradel. Mais l’avantage c’est que Romuald c’est une éponge, il retient très vite. Je lui ai donné des solutions pour prendre l’avantage sur Jason Granderie, le champion de France. »

Enfin une victoire contre Granderie

Quelques séances payantes puisque Romuald Raboteur a justement décroché sa médaille de bronze contre Granderie. « Cela reste une compétition internationale donc je suis satisfait de revenir avec une médaille même si j’aurais préféré revenir avec un autre métal » concède Raboteur. « Mes objectifs aujourd’hui sont d’être appelé pour participer aux championnats du monde en novembre prochain et continuer de combattre lors de compétitons internationales pour être dans la ranking liste et peut être pouvoir briller aux Jeux olympiques de Paris ». 

« Il a trouvé les ressources pour la médaille »

Conséquence de sa préparation, l’attitude sur et hors des tatamis a tapé dans l’oeil d’Antoine Hays, le directeur para-judo de la Fédération française de judo. « On a rencontré un Romuald transcendé et très dynamique. La veille de son combat, on a eu l’impression qu’il a pris l’ampleur de la compétition et qu’il a trouvé les ressources pour aller chercher cette médaille. Il pourrait être titulaire pour les championnats du Monde en novembre prochain et rêver dans deux ans des Jeux olympiques. Un conditionnel qui vient de se transformer en certitude puisque la liste des titulaires pour les championnats du Monde a été dévoilée hier, lundi, par la Fédération française de judo et Romuald Raboteur en fait bien partie.

Difficile de trouver des partenaires

Paradoxalement, la préparation à ces championnats d’Europe a été compliquée. En Guadeloupe, il est difficile de trouver des partenaires en para judo même si aujourd’hui il possède un accompagnement personnalisé grâce à la Maison Régionale de la Performance de Guadeloupe qui aide les sportifs de la haute performance sur le territoire et est un support très important de la ligue de judo, de son club Maeda des Abymes et d’autres partenaires.

De son côté, Antoine Hays viendra avant la fin de l’année en Guadeloupe pour rencontrer l’ensemble des acteurs qui gèrent la préparation du judoka afin de coordonner au mieux la préparation du Guadeloupéen.

Two additional cases of monkeypox have been confirmed in Jamaica, in the parishes of St James and St Elizabeth.

The latest confirmations bring the island’s total in the last 24 hours to nine, theMinistry of Health and Wellness said in a release on Tuesday.

The two new cases have been classified as locally transmitted in a female and a male, both of whom are isolated at home in stable condition.

“These locally acquired cases mean that the patients had no recent travel history and have no confirmed link to the previously announced cases. The respective parish health departments have commenced contact tracing associated the cases,” the ministry said.

The spread of monkeypox may occur when a person comes into close contact with an infected individual. Person-to-person spread may occur through:

direct contact with monkeypox skin lesions or scabs, including: sexual contact close personal contact contact with contaminated personal items such as clothing, bed linen or towels used by an infected person; andrespiratory droplets by way of coughing or sneezing of an individual with a Monkeypox rash.

Symptoms of monkeypox are usually mild to moderate and include fever, intense headache, swelling of the lymph nodes, back pain, muscle ache, and/or rash on the skin. Members of the public who experience these warning signs must immediately isolate and call ahead to their health centre or doctor before visiting.
