I am most perturbed and disappointed by our Prime Minister, Mr Moses Nagamootoo.
I am now a pensioner and used to be an ardent follower of the politics of this country and therefore would have heard enough from this man to draw conclusions. I have heard him speaking up to the last 2015 election campaign when he boasted about his frugal lifestyle and his penchant for a lean and clean government and his dislike for extravagance. I have listened to him speaking about the sacrifices he made for sugar workers and his attacks on the pension of the former President Dr Jagdeo.
Even when he crossed over to the AFC I thought that these ingrained principles would make him an incorruptible beacon in that party. However, my confidence began to wane when I heard him extolling the virtues of the PNC, a party which he aggressively fought and had written against.
Unfortunately, as soon as the coalition won the 2015 General Elections and he took office as the Prime Minister of this country his principles took a landslide into the abyss of egocentricity. Nowadays his speeches are just centred on himself. Now he is silent about the plight of the sugar workers, while his salary and his eventual pension will be bigger than Jagdeo’s.
On many occasions when the Prime Minister visits Berbice he targets two places, Courtland Village where his wife was born and Whim Village where he was born. What is glaring is that the sirens of his entourage can be heard from a far distance. He is normally accompanied by slew of staff and bodyguards totalling as many as thirty. However, this is not all. Before his arrival a team of security has to search and secure the area and its perimeter to ensure that it is safe from any threats to the PM. Imagine a man who once could roam freely in every nook and cranny in Berbice now feels that his life is under threat. The siren, the entourage and the security measures are just a waste of taxpayers’ dollars and are against what he had stood for. Even Mrs Nagamootoo travels in the same high style when she visits her birth-home at Courtland.
I have witnessed President Granger travelling with far fewer staff and pretensions. The President has no blaring sirens and his security detail is minimal. I have also never seen the former PM, Mr Samuel Hinds travel with such pomp and ceremony.
Claire Datnow demonstrates books with QR codes to students.
If statistics are to be believed, mobile phones are becoming so ubiquitous that only 9 percent of American teens would be willing to go without their cell phones for 24 hours, and on average spends an hour and a half texting each day. Probably this comes as no surprise to parents and teacher, and certainly not to me as a educator and grandparent. So the question becomes: can we boost preteen and teen reading with mobile devices?
What do the students find so compelling about these books? First, they enjoy and are completely comfortable with devices such as the iPod, iPhone, and iPad. Second, they are captivated by the way in which the video clips bring the story they are reading to life.
There's yet another amazing innovation sweeping through the rapidly changing world of book publishing.

Republicans charge hypocrisy in reactions to Kavanaugh and Ellison.
WASHINGTON – The roiling national debate over the Supreme Court nomination of Brett Kavanaugh is leaving some Minnesota Democrats uncomfortably wrestling with how best to respond to the recent domestic abuse allegation against the Democratic candidate for attorney general, U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison.
“If you use one standard when it’s politically easy and you change the standard when it’s politically difficult, that means you’re putting party politics ahead of the principles you’re espousing,” said Ryan Winkler, a former DFL state representative from Golden Valley who’s running this year to return to the Legislature.
Ellison, a congressman from Minneapolis for the last dozen years, has repeatedly denied the allegation from ex-girlfriend Karen Monahan that he tried to drag her off a bed by her feet during an argument in 2016. Monahan has continued to press her case on social media; this week, the state DFL announced that an attorney it hired to look at the allegation could not substantiate it, and has been trying to find a law enforcement agency to review its report.
Last week, Ellison called for the U.S. House Committee on Ethics to investigate Monahan’s claim. Asked to comment for this story, his campaign referred back to that request, which a number of other prominent Minnesota Democrats supported. Republicans, meanwhile, have tried to tie other Democrats to Ellison.
“Recent calls for a congressional ethics investigation, made by Keith Ellison and echoed by my opponent, amount to nothing more than political cover,” Republican state Sen. Karin Housley, a U.S. Senate candidate, said in a news release this week. She’s running against U.S. Sen. Tina Smith.
Former DFL Rep. Ryan Winkler says party politics shouldn’t be put ahead of principles.
The House Ethics Committee has three months to investigate Ellison before it loses jurisdiction over the matter when he leaves Congress. Ethics probes greatly vary in length: just this year, the committee wrapped up an investigation that ran more than four years and another that took more than five. But last year, the committee acted on another case in just three months.
While the allegations against Ellison, Kavanaugh and former U.S. Sen. Al Franken have all played out against the #MeToo movement, they differ greatly in the details. Three women have accused Kavanaugh of sexual assault or misconduct when he was a high school and college student. Franken faced allegations from a group of women that he groped or inappropriately touched them, either a few years before or during his time as a U.S. senator.
Ellison won the DFL primary for attorney general in August a few days after Monahan’s allegation of a single instance of domestic abuse emerged. Following that, the DFL’s Central Committee overwhelmingly endorsed his bid. Numerous leading Democratic operatives and party leaders have said privately that what happened to Franken may have benefited Ellison because many party activists felt Franken was deprived of due process.
Ellison himself, in public statements about the allegation, has walked a careful line. “Addressing this allegation has been especially challenging given the important national moment we are in. I believe women who come forward must be heard, and to have their allegations fully investigated,” he said in a statement released Monday, in response to the DFL’s investigation.
Ellison is also deputy chairman of the Democratic National Committee. He said in a WCCO radio interview on Wednesday that he is considering resigning that seat to focus on his current campaign.
University of Minnesota law professor Richard Painter said that both parties do what they have to do politically when faced with such allegations against one of their members. Painter, who lost the DFL Senate primary to Smith in August, worked as an ethics lawyer for the White House under George W. Bush when Kavanaugh was the president’s staff secretary.
Painter criticized the DFL for hiring a law firm to investigate the Ellison matter that already had a relationship to the party. Charles Nauen, a partner at the Lockridge Grindal Nauen law firm, is the DFL Party’s attorney. The firm has donated money to Democrats including Ellison, and to Republicans as well.
For Republicans poised to support Kavanaugh, meanwhile, “it was like pulling teeth to just get a one-week delay [for an FBI probe]. It’s a common theme that both parties don’t want to investigate their own — all of these things are about politics, not arriving at the truth,” Painter said.
Dan McGrath, who until recently led the DFL-allied TakeAction Minnesota, also worried about “a question of how do you hold friends and foes to the same standard, which is very important in these situations — to operate from a place of values,” he said. TakeAction decided to stand by Ellison, but McGrath said several weeks after Monahan’s allegation became public that the majority of people he’d talked to about it hadn’t made up their minds and didn’t know what to think about Ellison.
Winkler has insisted in recent weeks that the DFL take a genuinely tough look at Monahan’s accusation against Ellison. Initially a candidate for state attorney general this year, Winkler dropped out when the current attorney general, DFLer Lori Swanson, said she’d run for re-election. She later changed course, and Winkler endorsed Ellison before Monahan’s allegation.
“They can be charged with inconsistency for standing by him and not believing his accuser while demanding that others believe the accuser and asking people to step down based on those accusations,” Winkler said of those on the left calling for Kavanaugh’s withdrawal.
Ellison faces Republican Doug Wardlow in November, and Winkler said he’s worried the DFL could lose an attorney general seat it’s held since 1971. A recent Star Tribune/MPR News Minnesota Poll found Ellison holding just a small lead.
Every woman should have several sundresses in their wardrobe because they make you feel beautiful.
We have access to an endless variety of fashion styles, garments and prints, yet when summer rolls around our uniform is shorts and tees.
Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of the plain white and denim combo. But when you're afforded the option to wear a classic, colourful and breezy sundress, how could you say no?
Adelaide fashion designer Binny Watson from resortwear label Binny agrees that the humble sundress has become less common in women's wardrobes - but she's here to change that.
"I think it's important that women find joy in dresses again," Binny says.
"We spend so much time taking care of others we forget ourselves. Like a great lipstick, a great sundress can really make you feel good.
"Every woman should have several in their wardrobe because they make you feel beautiful, they're super versatile, trans-seasonal, easy to wear, one piece of clothing, and easy to pack for a summer holiday."
Binny recommends making your dress debut by opting for styles in your signature colour and choosing organic fabrics for practicality.
"If you like plain dresses, think about the shape that suits your body and special details," she says. "If you like colours, go for colours that complement your colouring and also make you happy.
"Think about the quality of fabric and colours or prints you like to wear, and make those your priorities when you're trying on dresses.
"I always go for natural fabrics like silks, linen or cotton because they are light and breathable for summer."
A quality sundress can also be dressed down or up for a casual day out or an evening engagement.
"A good dress should definitely be able to transition from day to night with the right shoes and accessories," Binny says.
"Take my fave Blazey dress for example. Its classic shape and colours will work with a pair of tennis shoes if you're feeling preppy and are in the mood for a picnic, or with a pair of leather slides or sandals for brunch, and then a pair of wedges for a night out."
OTTAWA -- Amazon says it will build a new fulfillment centre in Ottawa, creating some 600 full-time jobs.
The e-commerce giant plans to open the new warehouse in the capital city's eastern suburb of Orleans.
Employees at the centre will pick, pack and ship large items such as household decor, sporting equipment and gardening tools.
The company says the new warehouse will be the eighth in Canada, joining others in Ontario, British Columbia and Alberta.
The online retailer announced in April it would expand its Vancouver technology hub and create 3,000 new high-tech jobs.
A man who tried to smuggle a pipe bomb onto a flight from Manchester Airport has been jailed for 18 years.
Nadeem Muhammad, 43, was convicted of possessing an explosive with intent to endanger life after the device was found in his hand luggage as he prepared to board a Ryanair flight to Italy.
Security officers uncovered the bomb - made of masking tape, batteries, pins and wires - in the zip lining of his suitcase on January 30.
But Muhammad was initially released on the day of the discovery after a series of "errors" in the assessment of the device.
He was then allowed to board a flight to Italy just five days later, and was only arrested on February 12 upon returning to the UK via Manchester Airport.
Muhammad, who claimed he had never seen the device before, was found guilty by a jury at Manchester Crown Court.
After sentencing, Judge Patrick Field QC criticised airport security for making a "wholly erroneous and potentially dangerous" conclusion that the bomb was not viable after it was seized by officers.
Having been questioned by counter terrorism officers on January 30, Muhammad, who was born in Pakistan but had an Italian passport, was released.
Judge Field said he had been "alarmed by some of the evidence in the case."
He said the situation was "compounded" by police who accepted the assurance that the device was not viable and missed an "early opportunity" to arrest Muhammad.
Judge Field said Muhammad would "undoubtedly" have carried the bomb on to the plane or into the airport's departure lounge where he would have detonated it.
He said: "If detonated in the confines of the cabin of a commercial aeroplane, this device could have caused not inconsiderable injury and damage to those close to the explosion and this then, on any view, is a particularly serious and grave offence."
Martin Liddiard, defending, said expert evidence showed the improvised explosive device would have been "unreliable" and "unpredictable" and if it had been detonated was only likely to have caused injuries to those in very close proximity.
