Le Mus?e du panth?on ha?tien national (Mupanah) devient d?sormais le lieu de pr?dilection pour comm?morer la bataille de Verti?res. Loin des regards de la population, un Champ-de-Mars calme, serein, propre pour une rare fois, a accueilli l’?quipe gouvernementale pour cette comm?moration. La c?r?monie a dur? moins de deux heures.

Aller ? Verti?res, l? o? nos h?ros ont vaincu l’arm?e napol?onienne, depuis plus de deux ans, repr?sente un vrai d?fi pour nos autorit?s au pouvoir. Pour la deuxi?me fois cons?cutive, le premier ministre Ariel Henry ne s’y est pas rendu.

Pour marquer ce 219e anniversaire de la bataille de Verti?res, il y a eu une petite parade militaire aux environs de 8 heures et la mont?e du drapeau avant la venue du Premier ministre, Ariel Henry vers les 9 heures. Au Mupanah, une offrande florale a ?t? faite suivie par la signature du livre d’honneur par le Premier ministre, Ariel Henry. Le chef du gouvernement qui n’a pas prononc? de discours devant les cam?ras de journalistes pr?sents sur place, a pass? en revue la troupe militaire et s’est rendu au quartier g?n?ral des Forces arm?es d’Ha?ti (FAd’H).

Sur son compte Twitter, le locataire de la Primature, a inform? avoir d?poser une gerbe de fleurs pour saluer la m?moire des h?ros de Verti?res qui, en ce jour ramenant le 219e anniversaire de cette bataille d?cisive, “nous rappellent l’imp?rieuse obligation de continuer ? travailler ensemble pour le bien-?tre de notre Ha?ti ch?rie”.

“C’est avec fiert? que nous nous retrouvons ici, au Grand quartier g?n?ral des Forces arm?es d’Ha?ti, pour comm?morer le jour de la victoire de la Bataille de Verti?res, un ?v?nement important dans notre histoire et celle de l’humanit?”, a exprim? le Premier ministre Ariel Henry, voulant que ce bel exemple de nos anc?tres et leurs prouesses nous inspirent et nous aident ? remonter la pente et ? reconstruire notre pays.

“Il est venu le temps pour que les fils et filles de la nation, ? l’instar des h?ros de Verti?res, s’accordent ? penser, ? dire et ? agir dans l’int?r?t de nation commune”, a tweet? le Premier ministre Henry.

“Le voile de la solidarit?, du dialogue et du vivre-ensemble est d?chir? ? cause de nos querelles intestines. Unissons-nous pour rendre ? notre ch?re Haiti sa fiert?, sa gloire, tout en pr?nant l’id?al de changement tant pr?conis? par les p?res de la Patrie”, a-t-il poursuivi sur son compte Twitter.

Dans le Nord du pays, tout comme ? P?tion-Ville, des militants ont foul? le macadam pour manifester contre le pouvoir en place.

Le pays comm?more le 219e anniversaire dans un contexte particulier o? le pouvoir en place a sollicit? l’aide militaire ?trang?re afin de combattre les gangs qui s?ment le deuil dans des familles ha?tiennes. Aucun repr?sentant des ambassades n’a accompagn? le Premier ministre Ariel Henry au Mupanah ce 18 novembre.

Three knives every cook needs, and some they might just want Loop Jamaica

/0 Comments/in /by

Black Immigrant Daily News

The content originally appeared on: Jamaica News Loop News

There is likely no kitchen tool purchase as important as your cooking knives. And it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the variety of styles, prices, sizes and materials.

But while the category of knives is one you may want to explore for the rest of your cooking days, picking a couple of all-purpose kitchen knives can be simple.

Many professionals will tell you that you can perform virtually any kitchen task skillfully with either a chef’s knife or a paring knife and that while adding other knives to your arsenal is appealing and can be useful, it’s not strictly necessary.

Unless, maybe, it’s a serrated knife, something every cook really should have too.

A variety of kitchen knives. Many professionals will say you can perform virtually any kitchen task skillfully with either a chef’s knife or a paring knife. Adding other knives to your arsenal is appealing and can be useful but isn’t strictly necessary. (Photo: Katie Workman via AP)

Serrated knives are primarily used for slicing bread; the serrated edge allows you to saw back and forth without compressing the loaf. It can also be used for other foods, like tomatoes.

When buying knives, go for individual ones you like rather than a boxed set, which might leave you with ones you don’t enjoy using.

Paring Knife

Simply a small knife for tasks requiring more dexterity and precision than a larger knife provides.

The blade is usually about 3 inches long. Use a paring knife to peel fruits and vegetables, say, or deveining shrimp. I think a straight rather than curved blade makes slicing tasks easier.

Chef’s Knife

Buying one requires a bit more thought. Most chef’s knives are either 8 or 10 inches long, from the bolster (where the blade meets the handle) to the tip of the blade. Many professional chefs like a longer, 10-inch knife, but as with everything regarding knives, it’s about your own preference and comfort level. If you are more comfortable handling a shorter, 8-inch knife, then that’s the size you should go for. The longer the blade, the more you can chop at one time.

Use your chef’s knife for most kitchen work, from chopping onions and garlic to slicing carrots to slicing a roast to deboning a chicken.

Again, if you are a knife fan and want to lay in a supply of 4-, 6-, 8- and 10-inch knives, then you can choose the optimal knife for any task. But know that with one good chef’s knife, plus your paring knife and a serrated knife, you really don’t need anything else.

What to look for

When buying a knife, especially one you’re going to spend some real cash on, you absolutely need to hold it in your hand. Pretend you are using it, and literally make slicing motions to test how it feels in your hand. It should have some heft.

Make sure there are no cracks near the rivets or handle, anywhere that could feel rough, and allow residue to collect.

There are three main types of metal used to make knives: carbon steel, stainless steel, and high-carbon stainless steel. Carbon steel is generally the hardest, and stainless steel is the softest. The harder the metal, the easier it is to keep sharp. However, harder metal also requires more care.

Carbon steel rusts easily, so those knives have to be consistently washed and dried to avoid discoloration. Many professional chefs find this a fine tradeoff, but home cooks might prefer something requiring less maintenance.

Many good-quality commercial knives designed for home cooks are high-carbon stainless steel, which is easier to care for than straight carbon steel and keeps a sharp edge longer than stainless.

Variations

Chef’s knives are often divided into two main types: Japanese and German, or Western-style. Japanese knives are usually thinner and sharper, many made of higher-maintenance carbon steel. German-style knives are more durable, though they might not get as sharp. Japanese knives are often hand-honed and have straighter blade for more precise slicing. Both are great options.

If you want to delve deeper, you can find Swedish steel knives, French steel knives, and more, plus lots of knives made in the U.S.A. Some companies making high-quality kitchen knives in the U.S. are Steelport, Schmidt Brothers, and Faneema Cutlery.

The blade of a chef’s knife is both long and wide. Different types have different curvatures on the bottom of the blade, from straight to gently curved. Many American and German knives have a pronounced curve, while French and Japanese knives tend to have straighter blades. A Santoku knife is a Japanese chef’s knife with small indentations along the straight blade, in the style of a Chinese slicing cleaver.

Ceramic knives are also popular. These are made from hardy ceramics but are still fairly fragile (don’t drop one!). They hold a sharp edge pretty well, but their lightness isn’t as satisfying to use for most real kitchen chopping.

It is good practice to wash, dry and store knives immediately after using them. This will help them stay sharp and in the best condition overall (and prevent accidents!). Never put cooking knives in a dishwasher, as it can dull the blade.

Whatever knife you choose, buy a honing rod, sharpening steel or whetstone. Learn how to use it properly to keep your knives sharp, and see how much it ups your chopping game.

The Eastern Caribbean Central Bank (ECCB) is aware of the recent collapse of FTX(registered as FTX Digital Markets Ltd) headquartered in The Bahamas, which wasreported to be a significant player in the crypto space.

The Securities Commission of The Bahamas has since suspended the registration of thisentity and appointed provisional liquidators for FTX Digital Markets Ltd.

Regulatory action by the Securities Commission of The Bahamas is ongoing. This has not been the first significant fallout in the crypto space this year.

In light of these unfortunate events, the ECCB encourages the public to exercise duediligence and to be mindful of the high level of risk crypto-assets present.

Crypto-assets are inherently volatile and speculative. As such, consumers should be aware of the risk of the loss of their investment, fraud and cyber-attacks, especially in jurisdictions where the sector is unregulated.

Anthony Wilson, 63, from Fyzabad, died on a couch after a man stabbed him at his home early Friday.

Wilson’s caretaker, a 47-year-old woman, escaped the same fate when she rushed to help Wilson as he took his last breaths.

Wilson, also known as Tony and Ouch, was a former security guard. The suspect, 49, had been staying at Wilson’s home for the past few months.

The police said they responded to a report of the stabbing death and arrived at the house at Forest Reserve Road at around 1. 15 am. They found Wilson’s body in a bedroom, sitting on a couch, with a wound to the chest.

The caretaker reported that she heard a commotion between Wilson and the man. She heard Wilson say, “Why did you do this to me?”

As she looked into the room, she saw the suspect holding a knife over Wilson. He had already been stabbed.

A close relative of the caretaker told Newsday that Wilson had gone into her bedroom moments earlier to find out if she wanted to charge her cell phone.

The caretaker, who was not in the bedroom, heard him saying, “Come off me. What you doing?”

She walked into the bedroom and saw the suspect holding the knife smeared with blood over Wilson.

“She was going toward Anthony to help him. But the man grabbed her by her neck. They had a scuffle, and she ran out of the house. He was running after her with the knife. She fell in mud in the yard,” the relative said.

“She is shaken up by the incident.

“She is soft-hearted. She would go out of her way to help other people.”

The caretaker alerted neighbours, and the suspect ran off into the darkness.

The caretaker has been living and caring for Wilson for about five years, and they became friends.

From what the relative was told, the suspect was allowed to stay at the house after being released from prison. The relative was unaware of why the man was in prison and for how long.

The Met Office has issued a yellow-level alert for the Caroni River after heavy rain on Friday.

The alert is expected to end on Saturday afternoon.

In a release on Friday afternoon, the Met Office said the river is almost at 90 per cent capacity.

It said though the weather may settle in the late afternoon, periods of heavy rain are expected which may raise the river’s water level, so there remains a moderate risk to public safety, livelihood and property.

The Met Office advised people to monitor the weather conditions and river/water levels from reliable and accurate sources and plan safety measures, including emergency supplies of food and water. It urged people not to take unnecessary risks.

GraceKennedy, CCRIF signal readiness to introduce regional agriculture insurance – CARICOM MTF

/0 Comments/in /by

Black Immigrant Daily News

The content originally appeared on: INews Guyana

CARICOM Member States, since the establishment of the Ministerial Taskforce (MTF) by H.E. President Dr Irfaan Ali, have been working towards the establishment of a sustainable agriculture insurance plan.

Over the last ten years, more Small Island Developing States within CARICOM have been devastatingly affected by the impacts of climate change. Within the last decade, there have been increased instances of flooding, drought, and volcanic eruptions which have resulted in many economies in the region being adversely affected.

Last year, Guyana experienced one of the most devastating floods in the country’s history which left almost 90% of the country’s agriculture sector completely destroyed. Other countries like Suriname, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Barbados, Jamaica, and Trinidad and Tobago have also suffered from natural disasters as a result of climate change.

During the 8th CARICOM Ministerial Taskforce (MTF) meeting, which was held today, regional officials discussed the progress made in establishing sustainable agriculture insurance products in vulnerable member states.

Prior to today’s meeting, Agriculture Minister Zulfikar Mustapha, in his role as Chairman of the MTF, outlined the need for the development of such a product given the fact that the impacts of climate change have, in recent years, proven to pose several economic challenges for vulnerable CARICOM countries.

While referencing Guyana’s most recent experience in 2021, Minister Mustapha had called the MTF to work towards engaging regional financial insurance institutions on the possibility of developing agriculture insurance products geared at strengthening the region’s disaster recovery efforts.

Last October, during the launch of Caribbean Week of Agriculture, Minister Mustapha said that the government was working to promote the idea of establishing agriculture insurance in Guyana and in the region.

“The MTF has received presentations on two areas which included a possible agriculture insurance product for the region by a regional company pioneering such a product in a member state and outlining the elements for the establishment of a regional agricultural insurance product. This is very critical for us, in the Caribbean, to implement such a product and ensure that our farmers are targeted,” Minister Mustapha said.

The MTF, through its Agriculture Insurance Technical working group, has been engaging various regional financial institutions on how a regional insurance product can be developed and introduced in the Member States.

During the meeting earlier today, Mr. Shaun Bough, Programme Manager, Agricultural and Agro-Industrial Development at the CARICOM Secretariat disclosed that the MTF’s Agriculture Insurance Technical working group recently met with representatives of GraceKennedy Limited, one of the Caribbean’s largest and most dynamic Food and Financial corporate entities, to discuss the progress made thus far with developing and implementing the such a product.

“Late last year, we received a presentation from GraceKennedy Insurance out of Jamaica. They had presented on a particular product that they have ongoing in that member state and expressed an interest in scaling up and introducing it to the rest of the region. They have indicated that they have now been able to put a dedicated project team to get this product up and running and that they are near completion of negotiating with their reinsurance to carry the product. They have also submitted an implementation work plan and programme to which they have committed to. All in all, it amounts to a possible product being introduced by the first half of 2023,” Mr. Bough said.

Additionally, Mr. Bough indicated that the MTF’s technical working group has also engaged the Caribbean Catastrophe Risk Insurance Facility (CCRIF).

“At our last meeting, we received a presentation from the CCRIF which indicated that they had several products available but in particular, they had a livelihood product that they were ready to go to market with. The technical working group also met with them recently and they indicated that they are prepared to launch their Livelihood Protection Policy in December 2022. They’ve also indicated that their insurance partner will be Garden Insurance Group Limited and that they identified Belize, Grenada, Jamaica, St. Lucia, and Trinidad and Tobago as countries to launch the pilot for the product. This productis also intended to be up and running by the first half of 2023,” he noted.

The need for agriculture insurance has become more critical as governments are usually responsible for providing the resources to support affected groups in the aftermath of natural disasters.

Since taking office, the government has been working with its regional partners to strengthen its disaster readiness and recovery plan as climate change continues to pose a threat to various productive sectors across the region.

Routledge added, “Guyana is a thought-leader on low carbon development with an ambitious strategy to secure growth and prosperity for current and future generations. These credentials, I believe, put Guyana in the driver’s seat on energy issues regionally if not globally, and the International Energy Conference is an ideal platform to learn ofdevelopments and engage in the debate. ExxonMobil Guyana is proud to be associated with this event and is excited to be part of the transformational journey taking place in Guyana.”

The Conference, which is expected to assemble policymakers, academics, industryprofessionals and entrepreneurs from around the world, will again see the participation of Heads of State and Government, and global energy thought-leaders, most notably, Professor Jeffrey D. Sachs, world-renowned economics professor, bestselling author, innovative educator, and global leader in sustainable development.

In acknowledging the sponsorship from ExxonMobil Guyana, Kurt Baboolall, ChiefExecutive Officer of the International Energy Conference and Expo Guyana said, “We are grateful for the sponsors and exhibitors who are committing resources to supporting the conference and driving the energy conversation.”

Baboolall added, “ExxonMobil, as is demonstrated in Guyana, is an unparalleled leader in energy development today and remains committed to meeting current and future needs for development. The rapid development of energy resources being undertaken by ExxonMobilGuyana has positioned Guyana in the middle of the current global discussions.”

At full capacity, this year’s conference will feature 35 sponsors, 300 exhibitors, and 1200 delegates. Over 60% of all places have been taken and the remaining openings have become extremely competitive to secure.

Minister of Natural Resources, Hon. Vickram Bharrat, who attended the announcement, signalled Government’s continued support of the Conference and Expo saying that “The Government welcomes the International Energy Conference and Expo 2023, this is the second energy expo in Guyana showcasing the opportunities and what Guyana has to offer to the world.

Guyana of course is one of the newest oil producing countries in the Latin America and Caribbean region, and we have been moving at an unprecedented rate in developing our oil and gas sector and at the same time we have been incentivizing and working towards developing the traditional non-oil sectors.”

Minister Bharrat further explained, “[The IECEG] It’s not just about showcasing Guyana as an oil producing country but showcasing Guyana as an investment destination, a land that offers many opportunities across all sectors.”

The Conference and Expo is now entering its second year under the theme ‘Harnessing Energy for Development’ and will be held from February 14-17, 2023 at the Guyana Marriott Hotel, Georgetown, Guyana.

The registration portal for the conference and expo can be found on the conferencewebsite, www.guyanaenergy.gy. Pre-registration is now open for sponsors, exhibitors, in-person attendees, virtual attendees, workshop participants, and members of the media, all being done online.
