City Hall, GCCI sign MoU to tackle waste disposal, tax collection
Mayor of Georgetown, Ubraj Narine (left) inks the agreement with President of the Georgetown Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Nicholas BoyerMayor of Georgetown, Ubraj Narine and the President of the Georgetown Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GCCI), Nicholas Boyer, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) which will see the two agencies working to improve the state of the capital city.The areas under which the two agencies will collaborate include general rates, public security within the city, building codes for construction procedures, infrastructure development, environmental issues such as garbage collection, public education and awareness and training and capacity-building.Although the two had an argument through the media with regard to businesses owing taxes to the Council in April, the Mayor was keen to note that the agreement did not stem from that issue.In fact, Mayor Narine told the media that the MoU between the M&CC and GCCI had been in the making since past President Deodat Indaar.“Today in City Hall in this Chamber [we are] creating history and this is the way I think Georgetown is going to move forward. Not to benefit us here but to benefit the residents and the businesses in the city…I look forward to not only signing this piece of paper here this morning but more engagement, more meetings with the President and myself at administration level so that we can develop this city the way we want it to be,” His Worship the Mayor stated.Meanwhile, Boyer, while responding to a question posted by Guyana Times said the Chamber will ensure that businesses comply in these areas as plans are afoot to have various persons appointed to the different areas to ensure compliance.“Under each thematic area, we are probably going to have different representatives who are certain ideas…for my side, I’m gonna say okay I’m assigning one person to this particular part of the MoU. That person’s responsibility now is to understand problems both from our side problems from the Mayor and City Council’s side. So let’s say that they say there’s a problem where businesses are just dumping the garbage then it is first our responsibility to educate and then follow up to see if education is reducing the problem. If education and maybe outreaches is not reducing the problem then you have to take legal steps,” he assured.Last month it was revealed that some 144 city businesses owe billions of dollars in taxes to the Council.The Mayor was asked to name those businesses but said he required permission from the other councillors.On Friday he said that he will not be involved with name and shame if those businesses comply and was, in fact, happy to report that a number of businesses have come forward to pay their dues while others are in the process of setting up payment plans.

RHT Bakewell trounce Albion to become champions
BCB/Fitness 53 Under-17 Tournament…Rose Hall Town (RHT) and Albion Community Centre have, over the last fifteen years, dominated Berbice Cricket, in the process establishing a rivalry that has left cricket fans enthralled with the action.The winning RHT Bakewell Team posing with Anil Beharry and BCB Secretary Robby Saywack after securing the titleTwo weeks ago, Albion edged their rivals by six runs to win the Mike’s Pharmacy Under-15 Title, but Rose Hall Town Bakewell, on Saturday last, turned the tables on their rivals to beat them by seven runs in the Fitness 53 Under-17 final.This final was historic, being the first one ever played at the Hampshire Cricket Ground, and a fair-sized crowd was attracted to witness the proceedings.Albion won the toss and elected to field after the umpires were forced to reduce the match to 45-Overs per side due to preparation moisture on the pitch.RHT lost opener Vikash Subramanie for four in the first over, bowled by Sarwan Chaitnarine; but a second wicket partnership of 40 between Jonathan De Viera and Angelino Ramdial stabilised the innings before De Viera ran himself out for 17 with the score on 44 – 2 in the 8th over.The wicket proved difficult for fast scoring, but the batsmen rotated the strike, until the crucial run out of National Junior Cricketer Jonathan Rampersaud resulted in the lower half of the innings falling apart. Mahendra Gopilall, the Guyana Under-15 player, scored 17, while Rampersaud (15), Chanderpaul Govindan (11), Angelino Ramdial (14), and Aaron Beharry (10) all got start but could not carry on.Leon Cecil finished with 2-25, while T. Sandanand supported with 2-38; and Chaitnarine, Gourav Ramesh, Inzam Shazam and P. Ganesh took a wicket each.Needing to score 127 from 47 overs to win the title, Albion lost Chaitnarine (4) and Hemendra Gurdyal (7) to Tyrese Sealy, then 12-year-old mystery spinner Matthew Pattaya had Leon Cecil caught at short extra cover for 1, to leave Albion at 20 for 3 in the tenth over.National left-arm spinner Jeremy Sandia then dismissed the dangerous Surendra Ramcharitar for 17, as Albion collapsed to 34 for 4.However, a solid fifth-wicket partnership of 52 between an elegant R. Kassim and the aggressive Inzam Shazam brought Albion back into the game, before the impressive Aaron Beharry had Shazam caught as the score ticked over to 86-5.At that stage, the asking was for 51 more runs from 19 overs with five wickets in hand.Then the all-spin Rose Hall Town bowling attack, consisting of Sealey, Pattaya, Rampersaud, Jeremy Sandia, Lucas Arthur and Beharry, retightened their grip on the game.Kassim top-scored with 41, but was guilty of extremely slow scoring. He was the ninth batsman to fall, with the score on 114. Five runs later, Albion was dismissed for 119 off 44 overs, as Rampersaud trapped T. Sooknanand lbw for 2, to seal the deal. Sealey ended with 3-25, Rampersaud had 2-24, Jeremy Sandia bagged 2-26 and Beharry claimed 2-22 for the Champions.Sealey was named man-of-the-match for his performance, while RHT pocketed $70,000 for winning and Albion settled for the runner-up prize of $40,000.President of the Berbice Cricket Board (BCB), Hilbert Foster, praised the Ramnaresh Sarwan/Fitness 53 Under-17 Tournament as another remarkable success of his administration.
Weekend brush fire in Taylor leads to formal investigation
“It was a rather large fire so a couple of people had called – I actually got a call personally and 911 got a call as well,” Fire Chief Alan Stebbing said of the “pretty big flames.”Seven firefighters, including Stebbing were called to minimize the incident but not to fully extinguish it.“We were on scene for probably about an hour, kind of making sure the that the perimeter was knocked down so that it wouldn’t spread anywhere, but with a brush pile, unless we’re going to use copious amounts of water and heavy equipment, there was not a whole lot we can do about the really deep-seeded fire,” Stebbing goes on to explain. “So we knock down the perimeter, make sure it’s not going to spread, then we just monitor it throughout the evening.”- Advertisement -At the time of publication, Stebbing said he’d recently checked up on the incident today and found there’s “still a little bit of smouldering.”The call came at interesting time, as the Fire Department also had to respond to a vehicle collision which took precedence over the brush fire.“We had to rush off and go deal with that because human life was potentially threatened whereas this was just threatening a little bit of a timber stand.”Advertisement Stebbing adds, “We went to deal with that and then came back and dealt with this fire.”Stebbing says there are no reported injuries or structures lost as a result of the fire.“The flash pile ended up burning down but thankfully we got there and made sure it didn’t spread.”Stebbing concludes by reminding residents that even though there’s snow on the ground, one still need to take precautions when lighting fires.Advertisement “Please give us a call if you’re in the Taylor Fire Protection area to get a permit [for burning brush piles] – basically lets us know what’s going on.”If you have any information regarding this incident, contact the Taylor Fire Department at 250 289 3392 or the Fort St. John RCMP detachment at 250 787 8100.
We don’t need to replace Phil, says Klopp
0Shares0000Jurgen Klopp. photo/TEAMTALKNAIROBI, Kenya, July 31 – Jurgen Klopp has insisted that Liverpool don’t need to replace Philippe Coutinho ahead of the 2018/19 Premier League season.The Reds lost the Brazilian midfielder to Barcelona in January but it hardly stifled their season en route to a fourth placed finish and a spot in the Champions League final. With just a week to go until the new campaign, Liverpool have added Naby Keita, Fabinho, Alisson and Xherdan Shaqiri to the club.Klopp feels he has strengthened his side sufficiently and will not look for a like-for-like replacement for Coutinho – if such a thing exists.The manager said: “You cannot replace Phil Coutinho with exactly the same kind of player.“He’s Phil Coutinho. He has a specific style of play, tactically an outstanding player, can play as the winger, the ’10’, the ‘8’ – really great.“I don’t want to put one of my players in the position where people will now say constantly ‘he’s the Phil replacement’.“I think the biggest thing we did in the second half of last season was that we didn’t need to speak too much about Phil. That wasn’t clear in January. How could we have known that?”He added: “We don’t need to replace Phil. We need to make a squad for the next year. Out there on the market, there isn’t a Phil Coutinho light. It’s not there. But there are a lot of good players and we have brought a few of them in.”0Shares0000(Visited 1 times, 1 visits today)
Italians protest price of pasta
By Colleen Barry THE ASSOCIATED PRESS MILAN, Italy – Be it fettuccine, linguine or spaghetti, Italians will soon be paying up to 20percent more for their pasta. Consumer groups are calling for a one-day pasta strike today – not against eating it, but against buying it – to protest the increase. But producers say the strike targeting Italy’s national dish is wrongheaded because the price is linked to a global rise in the cost of grain. Pasta is an Italian staple, entwined with the national identity. It’s not uncommon for families to discuss which pasta best fits that day’s sauce – tubular penne, twisty rigatoni or flat linguine. The average Italian eats about 62 pounds of pasta a year, on a peninsula so far untouched by low-carb diet crazes. “There is no dish that costs less,” said Furio Bragagnolo, vice president of the Italian pasta manufacturers association. “Whoever decides to strike against pasta will spend more on whatever they buy instead. A plate of pasta probably costs less than an apple.” The increase in the price of pasta is being driven by rising wheat prices worldwide, economists and producers say. The demand for wheat is the result of several trends, chiefly an increasing demand for biofuels, which can be made from wheat, and improved diets in emerging countries where putting more meat on the table is raising the demand for feed for livestock, said Francesco Bertolini, an economist at Milan’s Bocconi University. As a result, wheat stocks worldwide are being depleted and grain prices are soaring. The U.S. Department of Agriculture said Wednesday that U.S. stockpiles are at the lowest level in 33years. Italy produces only about half of the high-protein durum wheat used to make high-quality pasta and bread; the rest is imported from overseas markets, including the United States, Canada and Ukraine. On the Bologna market, for example, the cost of a pound of durum flour has risen in the past two months from 16 cents to 28cents, Bragagnolo said. And durum flour constitutes 70percent of the cost of producing pasta. Similarly, the December wheat contract, the largest futures contract, closed just shy of $9 a bushel Tuesday on the Chicago Board of Trade, up from about $5 a bushel roughly four months ago. In the Italian supermarket, that will translate by the end of the year into an increase of 16-19 cents on a 1-pound package, which now typically runs from 83cents to $1.25, Bragagnolo said. Even at higher prices, Bragagnolo said the cost of a portion of pasta – about 4 ounces, excluding sauce, of course – will be only about 23 cents. 160Want local news?Sign up for the Localist and stay informed Something went wrong.
