Question: Homeopathy Product Market: Market in Middle East and Africa to Witness Most Promising Growth

The global homeopathy product market has been experiencing a heavy presence of small and medium enterprises (SMEs), as noted by Transparency Market Research (TMR) in its latest report. This could be evident from a just over 27.0% share jointly accumulated by five leading players in 2015. In the same year, a 17.3% share was secured by Boiron Group, which is considered to be significant enough to influence the direction of the market. The company has been able to hold a commanding position in the industry due to its telling presence in key regions such as the Middle East and Africa (MEA), Asia Pacific, North America, and Europe.

Domain experts at TMR prognosticate the global homeopathy product market to make a drastic progress during the forecast tenure 2016-2024 at an 18.2% CAGR. As the final forecast year sees completion, the market could post a revenue collection of US$17.4 bn progressing from a US$3.8 bn collected in 2015. Dilutions are foreseen to be a lucrative product to focus on since they could bag a king’s share of the market while expanding at a CAGR of 17.8%. Although the MEA could rank higher on the basis of CAGR, Europe is anticipated to outclass every other region with its dominating share of a 36.4% by 2024.
Homeopathy product manufacturers could cash in on the increasing concerns of allopathic medicines on the part of their high usage. The prolonged usage of allopathic medicines could have serious side effects, about which consumers and non-consumers are becoming increasingly aware. Seasoned analysts expect this to be a crucial factor escalating the demand in the world homeopathy product market since consumers are desperately looking for alternative treatments.

A TMR analyst has stated that the market is predicted to be on the brink of being a mainstay in most important regions. An independent survey conducted in the recent past had revealed a lush amount of spending on homeopathy products in North America alone. Manufacturers of homeopathy products are envisioned to keep a close eye on the rise of various diseases around the globe, which has been swelling the requirement of different drugs and medicines.
Suppliers of homeopathy products are envisaged to suffer when operating in the global market because of a substantial shortfall in quality control. It could be challenging to implement quality assurance standards with a consolidated effort because a considerable part of the total market revenue is collected by SMEs dispersed across key regions. Manufacturers are prophesied to face the brunt of reduced demand and negative customer experience on account of the lack of adherence to sound manufacturing practices, thus compromising product quality to a significant degree.

However, players have been taking to the adoption of powerful business strategies such as geographical expansion into the MEA and Asia Pacific and strong promotional and marketing activities to cement their position in the international homeopathy product market. Moreover, there has been an intelligent usage of the extremely influential ecommerce marketplace, which could be an evidence of competent opportunities prevailing in the industry.

Question:
represent the title to find an explanatory news article

------

The query could be '['Represent the title to find an explanatory news article', 'Provinces agree to new 75-25 pot tax split']' and should be close to '['This news article should be represented to find a fitting news title', 'OTTAWA — The federal government has agreed to give the provinces and territories a 75% share of the tax revenues from the sale of legalized marijuana, a portion of which will be meted out to cities and towns to help them defray the cost of making pot legal across Canada.\nFinance Minister Bill Morneau announced the two-year agreement today after a day-long meeting with his provincial and territorial counterparts.\nMorneau says Ottawa will retain the remaining 25% share to a maximum of $100 million a year, with any balance over and above that limit going to the provinces and territories.\nFinance Minister Bill Morneau, centre, speaks as he meets with his provincial and territorial counterparts on Parliament Hill in Ottawa on Monday, Dec. 11, 2017. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Sean Kilpatrick\nThe larger share, he added, will allow the provinces to “fairly deal with their costs and so they can work with municipalities,” which had been asking for at least a one-third portion of the revenue to help ease the burden of costs like law enforcement.\nMorneau said that over the first two years, the federal government expects legalized pot to generate only about $400 million in tax revenues, adding that the ministers are scheduled to gather again a year from now to assess how the framework is working.\n“Our expectation is that by keeping prices low, we will be able to get rid of the black market. However, that will happen over time,” Morneau said during a closing news conference, his counterparts lined up behind him.\nFederal Finance Minister Bill Morneau holds a news conference after meeting with his provincial counterparts in Ottawa on Monday, Dec. 11, 2017. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Sean Kilpatrick\n“Our estimates suggest that the size of the taxation revenue is roughly ... about up to $400 million for the first couple of years.

Question: Kidney removed after cancer misdiagnosis

Represent this text to find a news title for it.

A former master warrant officer with the Canadian Armed Forces says she developed PTSD and had to leave the military after having her kidney removed as a result of being wrongly diagnosed with cancer.
She said she was told at the time that the mistake was no one’s fault and that “medicine is not an exact science.”
Sharon Marson, who now lives in New Brunswick, attempted to sue the now-retired Ottawa urologist who diagnosed and treated her, and The Ottawa Hospital. Affidavits were filed and both sides were cross examined in them, but her lawsuit alleging medical negligence was dismissed in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice earlier this year because she waited too long to pursue it.
Marson’s surgery was in August 2000. For most lawsuits, the claim must be issued within two years. Marson pursued the lawsuit in 2015.
She said a medical report commissioned by Veterans Affairs Canada concluded in 2014 that “I have been the victim of medical malpractice.” Until then, she said, she was not aware there had been malpractice.
The case began when Marson underwent a routine medical exam in early 2000 as a condition of her service in the armed forces. Tests done after the exam found a “shadow” on her right kidney and she was referred to urologist Dr. Carl Leahy.
He ordered a series of tests. Based on those, he concluded she had cancer in the right kidney and recommended that the kidney and her ureter be surgically removed, to which she agreed.
In August 2000, during a post-op consultation, Leahy told her the mass that had been diagnosed as cancer was, in fact, benign and that she had a kidney infection and scarring, not cancer.
“Following my nephrectomy, I was told that the pathology report, much to Dr. Leahy’s surprise, was not cancer. I had been misdiagnosed. I had had a kidney infection and scar tissue, for which I had had not one symptom,” she said in a court document.
According to court documents, Marson stated that after surgery she had been told by the doctor that tests had produced a “false positive result” for cancer and that “tests can be wrong, but this is not the result of any error of the technicians operating the lab equipment or conducting the tests but that this was the nature of the tests that were conducted.”
He added, “Medicine is not an exact science.”
At the time, she said, several people encouraged her to launch a lawsuit, but she declined.
It was only when she was applying for a disability pension, she said, that she read the entire medical file and was struck by an “inconsistency” between what the doctor told her and her husband after the surgery and what the records said.
At the heart of her concern was a cytopathology test conducted prior to surgery, which was negative for cancer. Cytopathology testing examines cells from various sites in the body and is sometimes used for cancer screening. Marson argued that further testing should have been done, in light of that result, before her kidney was removed.
“He never explained to me that he should have conducted further tests and that my condition may have been cured alternatively and he maintained that the kidney and ureter required removal in order to save my life.”
In court testimony, Leahy said all the test results had been disclosed to Marson prior to the surgery. He also said that a negative cytopathology report did not rule out cancer and was not significant to his diagnosis.
Marson, meanwhile, who had been working as a supply technician, said she left the armed forces as a result of the surgery and later suffered from depression and PTSD.
When she underwent a medical exam as part of her release from the military later in 2000, she talked about the misdiagnoses as part of her reason.
“I now know that, at all material times, I have suffered from and continue to suffer from post traumatic stress disorder and severe depression as a result of the treatment.” It was only after receiving treatment for them that she was capable of commencing legal action, she said, which is why she waited more than 15 years after the surgery to commence legal proceedings.
“I was unable to make important decisions at that time due to my depressed state.”
Both Marson and the lawyer representing Leahy declined to comment. The Ottawa Hospital released this statement: “The Court was clear in its decision in this case. The hospital cannot speak on behalf of other parties.”

Question: US sanctions Venezuela VP over drug trafficking

Represent this text to find a news title for it

WASHINGTON -- The Trump administration imposed sanctions against Venezuelan Vice President Tareck El Aissami on Monday, accusing him of playing a major role in international drug trafficking.
The executive decree, the result of a years-long investigation, is bound to ratchet up tensions between the new Republican administration and the United States' harshest critic in Latin America. El Aissami is the most senior Venezuelan official to ever be targeted by the U.S.
The U.S. Treasury Department also sanctioned Samark Lopez, a wealthy Venezuelan businessman the U.S. described as El Aissami's primary front man laundering proceeds through a network of companies in several nations. As part of the action, 13 companies owned or controlled by Lopez, including five in Florida, will be blocked and both men will be barred from entering the United States. Several real estate holdings in the Miami area tied to Lopez and worth tens of millions of dollars were also blocked.
There was no immediate reaction from the Venezuelan government or El Aissami, who has long denied any criminal ties. Lopez released a statement calling the actions baseless and "politically motivated."
The U.S. Justice Department said there were no pending criminal charges against the two men.
The sanctions came a week after a bipartisan group of 34 U.S. lawmakers sent a letter to Trump urging him to step up pressure on Venezuela's socialist government by thoroughly investigating El Aissami and immediately sanctioning top officials responsible for corruption and human rights abuses, including ones mentioned in an Associated Press investigation on corruption in food distribution and sales.
In the wake of President Nicolas Maduro's bloody crackdown on anti-government protests in 2014, the U.S. Congress passed legislation authorizing the U.S. president to freeze the assets and ban visas for anyone accused of carrying out acts of violence or violating the human rights of those opposing Venezuela's government. But Monday's sanctions were imposed under rules passed during the Clinton administration allowing the U.S. to go after the assets of anyone designated a drug kingpin.
El Aissami, 42, has been the target of U.S. law enforcement investigation for years, stemming from his days as interior minister when dozens of fraudulent Venezuelan passports ended up in the hands of people from the Middle East, including alleged members of Hezbollah.

By Mircely Guanipa
PUNTO FIJO (Reuters) - Venezuela has arrested the former refining boss of state oil company PDVSA for alleged corruption, two sources told Reuters on Monday, extending a crackdown on the OPEC nation's ailing oil sector.
Veteran oil executive Jesus Luongo joins a list of dozens of oil managers who have been arrested over the last few months for alleged graft in crisis-wrought Venezuela. Former oil minister Eulogio Del Pino and former PDVSA President Nelson Martinez are the most high-profile prisoners of the sweep that began late last year.
Authorities had issued an arrest warrant for Luongo and four other oil executives, the two sources with knowledge of the detention said. Luongo turned himself on Monday in the northwestern Paraguana peninsula, home to Venezuela's biggest refining complex, which he once led, one of the sources said. A hearing is scheduled for Tuesday, the other source added.
PDVSA and the Information Ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Luongo. Luongo did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Whatsapp. The messaging system said he had not logged on since Sunday.
Socialist President Nicolas Maduro has promised a vast anti-corruption purge to cleanse the oil industry of "mafias." At least 70 executives have been detained so far, panicking PDVSA workers, depriving Venezuela's oil industry of much of its top brass and stalling decision-making in the company overseeing the world's biggest crude reserves, insiders have said.
The opposition dismisses the probe as a power struggle within the government, noting that the industry has been under tight control of the Socialist Party since early in the late President Hugo Chavez's 14-year rule.
State prosecutor Tarek Saab, a former ruling party governor, has blasted those accusations as an opposition effort to discredit what he calls a "crusade" against graft. His office has called a press conference on Tuesday to make announcements about "the fight against corruption."

Question: What will Disney change about the Star Wars franchise given Solo’s box office?

As we discussed on Memorial Day, Solo: A Star Wars Story did not do well at the box office. To be clear, the whole idea of saying that a film didn’t “do well” when it made about $170 million worldwide is based off of expectations and predictions, not to mention production costs. Disney is pouring money into all of these Star Wars films, throwing more and more money at the troubled productions and promotional campaigns, and they expect each film to break box office records. Disney thought Solo would open with $300 million-plus worldwide, and it did half of that. Solo is flat-out bombing overseas. So what can be done and who is to blame?
Lucasfilm and Disney are facing a moment of reckoning. Over Memorial Day weekend, they were jolted when Solo: A Star Wars Story battled hard to hit $103 million domestically and bombed overseas with $65 million. The film badly trailed the launch of fellow stand-alone pic Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, which debuted to $155 million domestically in 2016 on its way to topping $1.056 billion globally. At its current rate, Solo may not gross much more than $400 million in all after costing at least $250 million to produce before marketing. Solo’s initial performance marks a rare loss for Disney. Moreover, it is forcing the studio to re-examine its strategy for the iconic Star Wars franchise, which Disney took over when it bought Lucasfilm for more than $4 billion in 2012. Most box-office analysts say the main problem is the fact that Solo debuted just five months after Star Wars: The Last Jedi hit the big screen, resulting in a clear-cut case of audience fatigue with the Star Wars extended universe. While the studio isn’t abandoning its plan to release one Star Wars feature per year, insiders concede Disney and Lucasfilm aren’t likely to release two Star Wars movies so close together again, regardless of whether they are anthology films, like Solo, or part of the official episodes, like Star Wars: The Force Awakens and its follow-up, The Last Jedi. On top of that, Disney would surely prefer a year-end launching pad going forward, rather than a summer bow. Force Awakens, Rogue One and Last Jedi all opened in mid-December and had no direct competition. Each did blockbuster business and were the biggest films of their respective years (2015, 2016 and 2017).
[From THR]
There’s more in that THR piece about how Disney screwed themselves over by trying to tap into the lucrative “summer blockbuster” timing, when they should have just stuck to their Christmas-release model. I think that’s a fair piece of criticism: it felt like Disney didn’t really know how to promote a film in May, because they were so used to promoting Star Wars movies in winter. That being said, it’s not that different, really, it’s just that the larger conversations were about Avengers: Infinity War and Deadpool. Summers are for comic-book movies, Christmas is for Star Wars!
As for the rest of it… I mean, it would be great if Disney did some deep analysis on the blockbuster-bubble of this current Hollywood era, but whatever. It sounds like they’re just shrugging and saying “let’s just do Star Wars movies once a year in December EVERY YEAR FROM HERE TO ETERNITY.”

Tuesday was a bad day for Disney’s bottom line.
The company’s stock fell by more than 2 percent Tuesday, closing at $99.72 — the first time the stock had been below $100 in more than two weeks.
Based on Tuesday’s closing price, Disney shares are down nearly 8 percent so far this year.
Disney-owned ABC made news Tuesday when it wasted no time in canceling “Roseanne,” one of the network’s biggest hits of the past season, after star Roseanne Barr sent out a racially charged tweet aimed at Valerie Jarrett, who served as chief adviser to former President Barack Obama.
The reboot of “Roseanne” debuted in March to tremendous ratings, attracting more than 18 million for its premiere. The network had already ordered a full second season of the show.

Disney CEO Bob Iger said the network had no choice but to cancel the program.
“There was only one thing to do here, and that was the right thing,” Iger said Tuesday via Twitter.
From Channing Dungey, President of ABC Entertainment: "Roseanne's Twitter statement is abhorrent, repugnant and inconsistent with our values, and we have decided to cancel her show."
There was only one thing to do here, and that was the right thing. — Robert Iger (@RobertIger) May 29, 2018
Even though ABC represented a relatively small portion (8 percent) of Disney’s overall revenues last year, market analysts agree that Disney had no choice from a business perspective to cut ties with Barr.

“Disney’s corporate reputation means more than any single show on ABC,” wrote Michael Cannivet at Forbes.com. “By making the bold move of terminating the show as swiftly as it did, Disney put itself on the right side of a burgeoning trend investors are wise to monitor. That is: corporate responsibility.”
But Barr’s social media gaffe wasn’t the only thing dragging down Disney stock.
The much-anticipated release of the latest “Star Wars” film, “Solo: A Star Wars Story,” tallied just $103 million in box office receipts for the extended Memorial Day weekend — including just $84 million in North American ticket sales, the lowest opening for any of the four Disney-produced “Star Wars” films.
Disney had expected the film to open with $130 million.
The results have some investors questioning if the “Star Wars” franchise has lost some of its long-term potential for Disney’s revenue.
RELATED: Stocks Make Record Comeback as Trade War Fears Subside
The disappointing showing for “Solo” breaks a string of Disney hits at the box office, including Marvel’s “Black Panther” and “Avengers: Infinity War.”
Disney’s stock opened Wednesday back above $100 before slipping almost all the way back to Tuesday’s close.

Question: Mum’s desperate plea to help brave son Tyler

The mum of a seriously unwell teenager who does so much for others is turning to the community for help to get her son the things he badly needs.
Tyler Murphy is currently recovering from his latest major operation.
Tyler Murphy with Ferne Cotton, a patron of his charity Tylers Trust
The 19-year-old, from Barnham, was diagnosed with a brain tumour more than seven years ago, aged 12.
In January 2016, the tumour grew aggressively, causing Tyler to suffer a bleed and since then he has undergone four risky and long operations to try to remove the tumour.
Continual spasms down his left side and difficultly walking means Tyler has had to sleep in a makeshift bed in the family’s living room for around a year.
His mum, Jan Ellis, has been battling to get her son a range of things he now desperately needs – access to a swimming pool to aid his recovery and an electric wheelchair so he can have some independence.
Despite Tyler’s ongoing health problems, the family has never asked for donations before. Instead Tyler, Jan and family and friends have raised funds to help others through Tyler’s Trust, a charity Tyler set up to provide special gift boxes for sick children while they are in hospital.
Writing in her blog, Jan said: “Everyone loves Tyler, he is one of those special people that you can’t help but be inspired by, but like all of us he has days where he finds it hard. As a mother it is so hard watching this amazing young man help others so much and not being able to give him what he needs.
“There are so many things that could help him at the moment which are either not available on the NHS or have immense waiting lists.”
Top of the list is an electric wheelchair - though that alone costs around £5,000.
Jan said: “Tyler had another go in the electric wheelchair that he needs last Thursday and he was a real whizz in it. He went to Costa and bought himself a drink.
“This may not sound like much but to us it is absolutely amazing, it showed just how much independence he will get with this chair.
“The downside is the £5,000 price tag, which is why we are now fundraising.
“He looked so happy and confident in the chair it broke my heart a little not being able to simply say OK let’s get it then.”
With Tyler unable to get up stairs easily, Jan is also asking for help so they can modify their house to give her son his own living accommodation.
She has set up a Crowdfunding page and so far nearly £1,500 of the £35,000 target has been pledged.
Jan said: “We would love to hear from anyone who has any ideas as to how we can fund- raise or that can support us.”

Question: Snooping mom discovers secret stash

Dear Amy: I was snooping in my son's basement and discovered he is growing weed. Should I confront him? He could lose his job, house, reputation and shared custody of his daughter.
I am a nervous wreck thinking about how to approach him. My husband would have a stroke if he found out. I know I should do something, but what?
-- Sad Mom
Dear Sad: Here's what you should do: Stop snooping in your son's basement.
Unless he has a sophisticated commercial marijuana ranch down there, you should assume this is for his own use, and leave it alone.
If you absolutely cannot stand it and must confront him about this, you will have to tell him the truth about your own behavior. One natural consequence of your admission would be for him to stop trusting you.
If you are ready to make this sacrifice, you should only urge him not to expose his child to his marijuana growing and weed use. Obviously, if you found this in the basement, so could she, and this would put his daughter in an even worse position than you are in, because involving her in this sort of secret could be ruinous for their relationship, and disastrous down the line.
State laws regarding marijuana cultivation seem to be quite convoluted. If he doesn't have a license to grow and is caught (by someone other than you) the consequences could be extreme in proportion to his crime.
Dear Amy: My daughter, 9, is in Girl Scouts. She loves it. I offer a lot of my time helping out the troop. Today, they went to an ice show in which the troop paid for the tickets, so this was not an out-of-pocket expense for us.
The parents were asked to either provide a snack for their daughters, or send money for the girls to buy a snack. We opted to send a snack instead of sending money, as we struggle financially.
Once they got there, they realized that you can't bring snacks in to the facility (understandable), so one of the troop leaders purchased popcorn buckets for each girl.
All the other girls brought money and were able to purchase their own drinks to go with the popcorn.
My daughter did not have any money with her, so her troop leader bought her a drink with a souvenir cup. My daughter thinks it cost around $15. I emailed the troop leaders and asked how much the souvenir/drink was and offered to reimburse them for it.
I felt like this was the right thing to do. However, my husband disagrees. He feels as though I shouldn't have offered, since we basically followed their initial instructions.
I know this is a small problem but every time someone purchases something on my kids' behalf without us asking, I feel obligated to at least offer to reimburse them when I have the funds. I know they can answer, "No -- don't worry about it." Am I wrong for offering to reimburse the troop leader? Or is my husband right?
-- Confused Girl Scout Mom
Dear Confused: You did the right thing. These troop leaders volunteer their time to help supervise the girls, and in addition to spending their time, they willingly spend money on all sorts of little (and large) things along the way. It was kind of this troop leader to purchase this treat for your daughter. You can assume that she did so very happily and does not expect to be reimbursed, since this was an unanticipated expense.
Of course you should acknowledge this and (if you're able) offer to reimburse her. You can expect her to turn down your offer, but your gesture is a nice way of acknowledging her kindness without making specific assumptions. She was being nice, and now you will be nice in return. That is the social contract your husband doesn't seem to understand.
Dear Amy: The man signing his letter "No Prior Precedent" described his wife's adult biological daughter, who she had surrendered for adoption at birth, entering their lives as an adult and wanting her biological mother to readopt her.
It is quite obvious that this person wants money. Once she is legally their child, she stands to inherit their money.
-- Seeing the Obvious
Dear Obvious: State laws differ, but generally children do not have an automatic right to inherit. And the prospect of inheritance does not always motivate people seeking a relationship with their parents.

Question: B.C. Liberals elect new leader today as party rebuilds after 16 years in power

Estimated 60,000 party members were eligible to vote online and by phone to replace Christy Clark
A sometimes bruising leadership campaign ends today in Vancouver for British Columbia’s Liberals as they elect a new leader who will be tasked with returning the party to power after a 16 year term in office that ended last summer.
An estimated 60,000 party members were eligible to vote online and by phone to replace Christy Clark, who resigned after the New Democrats formed a minority government with the support of the Green party following a non-confidence vote that brought down the Liberals.
The field of six candidates includes three veterans with deep cabinet experience, two former big city mayors and a first-time member of the legislature from Metro Vancouver.
Mike de Jong, Andrew Wilkinson and Todd Stone were longtime members of Clark’s cabinet.

Sam Sullivan, a former Vancouver mayor, was appointed to cabinet in the dying days of Clark’s government last summer.
The field also includes Michael Lee, a Vancouver lawyer who was elected to the legislature last spring, and Dianne Watts, a former Conservative MP and one-time mayor of Surrey.
The B.C. Liberal Party is not affiliated with the federal Liberals. It describes itself as “a made-in-B.C. free enterprise coalition” that includes members of the federal Conservative and Liberal parties.

Getting the party back to power after a lacklustre election campaign last May has been a focus of the leadership campaign.
There has been finger-pointing in debates over who was to blame for the Liberal downfall, despite B.C. boasting the strongest economy in Canada.
Some candidates criticized the party’s old guard for failing to address transportation, housing and social policy issues that led to losses in seat-rich Metro Vancouver, once a Liberal stronghold.
De Jong, the former finance minister, set himself apart from the field, defending the Liberal record as he took heat for his tight-fisted control of the province’s purse strings that meant programs aimed at easing financial pressures for people never made it off the drawing board.
Stone, his former cabinet colleague, acknowledged the Liberals were strong economic managers as he argued the party could have done a better job of sharing the wealth, including raising welfare rates.

VANCOUVER—Former B.C. premier Christy Clark has taken a job with the Canadian law firm Bennett Jones and will work as an advisor in the firm’s governmental affairs and public policy team. Clark is not a lawyer but has been hired for “her vision on driving growth through trade,” according to the firm’s CEO, Hugh MacKinnon.

“Vancouver is a thriving market and a strategic focus for Bennett Jones,” MacKinnon stated in a press release. The firm says it is “well equipped to advise foreign businesses and investors with Canadian ventures, and connect Canadian businesses and investors with opportunities around the world.” As premier from 2011 to 2016, Clark pushed to build a new liquified natural gas industry in B.C. and attempted to strengthen trade ties with Asia. She said she will continue to work on those files at Bennett Jones.

Clark resigned after the fall of her government following the May 2017 provincial election. Her business-focused B.C. Liberal party had governed for 16 years, but they failed to win a firm majority and were toppled by the B.C. NDP supported by the Green Party. Clark joins a host of other former politicians who now work at Bennett Jones, including former deputy prime minister Anne McLellan, former federal cabinet minister John Baird, and former Bank of Canada governor David Dodge.

Man dies in fire
NALINEE SEELAL Monday, January 2 2017
IN WHAT could surely re-ignite the heated debate over the use and control of fireworks, a man confined to a wheelchair perished in a fire believed to have been caused during a war of fireworks which set fire to the roof and then the top apartment of a complex in Port-of-Spain during the early morning hours of the New Year yesterday.
Police said that Jameel Alambi, 37, had no chance of escaping the inferno which gutted three wooden apartments, one on top each other, in the building. The floor of each apartment was made of wood and Alambi, who lived on the top floor, is believed to have fallen from his apartment home to the one below when fire ate away the flooring. His charred, unrecognisable remains were found near the wheelchair hours after firemen doused the flames. Police sources told Newsday that when the New Year began, shortly after midnight, the sky overlooking the apartment building lit up with firework set off by persons from the Mango Rose area with a firework response from those at nearby Nelson Street. As the war continued, sparks from the fireworks from both Mango Rose and Nelson Street ignited the wooden rafters of the apartment complex.
It is believed that the burning roof led to the floor of the top apartment igniting.
Alambis mother Roslyn tried her best to get her wheelchair-bound son out of the burning apartment on the third floor. When she could not, she ran out of the apartment to seek help but by then it was too late and the third-floor apartment caved in, followed by a similar collapse of the second floor apartment.
Alambis body was found among ruins in the ground floor apartment. His remains were taken to the Forensic Science Centre for autopsy tomorrow.
For most of December, amid the Yuletide Season, debate raged across the country over the wholesale use of fireworks not only at Christmas time but also at Divali and Independence Day much to the detriment of the health and well-being of the elderly and peoples pets.
It has been well documented that criminals use the cover of the noise of fireworks to shoot and kill rivals.
There have been calls for the banning of scratch bombs, stringent regulation on the sale of fireworks and harsher penalties for persons breaking existing laws regarding the sale of unauthorised types of fireworks, especially those containing gun powder. Investigations into Alambis death are continuing.

Question: Observers See Putin's Rule of Russia to Continue Indefinitely

represent the article to find a fitting news title

International observers say Russian President Vladimir Putin won another six-year term in office by withholding a fair chance from the competition. The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) said Monday that the extensive coverage by state news media of Putin's activities had given him an advantage over other candidates. Putin won re-election easily, leaving the seven challengers trailing far behind. VOA's Zlatica Hoke reports.

Question: Tynwald to consider introducing £8.61 Manx living wage

Image caption The proposed Manx living wage would be 16 pence more than in the UK
The introduction of a Manx living wage will be considered in Parliament later this month, the government said.
Following a Tynwald motion in January, a Manx living wage has been calculated at an hourly rate of £8.61 - £1.11 more than the island's current minimum wage.
The government used the United Kingdom's standard methodology whilst taking into account higher expenditure on the island such as transport costs.
The living wage is a voluntary rate of pay that companies can choose to adopt.
The minimum wage is legally enforceable, on the other hand.
Policy and Reform Minister Chris Thomas said that while the government was committed to promoting a caring and inclusive society, the proposal to establish a living wage would need careful consideration.
A government spokesman said further work will be carried out, including consideration by representatives from the business community, the voluntary sector and the trade unions.
The living wage in the UK is £8.45.

Residents of Newfoundland and Labrador saw more taxes and higher fees in 2016, and that's set to continue with the dawn of a new year.
The second round of increases came into effect Jan 1, as outlined in the 2016 budget, and includes everything from higher income taxes, the new book tax and dozens of new or higher fees from provincial parks, wildlife licenses and more.
Check out the full breakdown of all the changes below.
Provincial income tax
The start of the new year will see the final phasing-in of new income tax rates as outlined in the 2016 budget. Rates went up for all tax brackets during the second half of 2016, and effective Jan. 1 all brackets will again see an increase.
The breakdown is as follows:
1st Bracket ($0 - $35.148) will increase from 8.2 per cent to 8.7 per cent
2nd Bracket ($35,149 - $70,295) will increase from 13.5 per cent to 14.5 per cent
3rd Bracket ($70,296 - $125,500) will increase from 14.55 per cent to 15.8 per cent
4th Bracket ($125,501 - $175,700) will increase from 15.8 per cent to 17.3 per cent
5th Bracket (More than $175,700) will increase from 16.8 per cent to 18.3 per cent
To put it into context, someone who earns $32,000 a year will go from paying $1,902 in provincial income tax to now paying $1,972.
Someone who earns $54,000 a year will go from paying $4,705 in provincial income tax to now paying $4,973.
Someone who earns $90,000 a year will go from paying $9,772 in provincial income tax to now paying $10,449.
New book tax
As of Jan. 1, Newfoundland and Labrador will become the first province in Canada to put a tax on books.
Previously, a point-of-sale provincial HST rebate was applied on books, which meant the tax paid on books was only five per cent. However, the 2016 budget stated the rebate would be eliminated for all books sales except for public-sector organizations such as school boards and universities.
That means that readers in the province will now have to shell out 15 per cent HST on every book they buy.
The Newfoundland and Labrador government released a budget in 2016 that was filled with tax hikes, including many that didn't come into effect until 2017. (CBC)
Provincial fee increases

Question: Nicholson: US Planning Religious, Diplomatic, Military and Social Pressure on Taliban

Ayesha Tanzeem
VOA News
March 19, 2018
ISLAMABAD — The top U.S. military commander in Afghanistan said a combination of religious, social, diplomatic and military pressure will be applied to the Taliban this year to force them to start negotiating for peace in the war-torn country.
General John Nicholson, who is leading U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan, told a group of journalists Monday in Kabul the multi-pronged approach would be different from past years.
“There will be religious pressure applied to the Taliban with the ulemas hosted in Indonesia and elsewhere to strip away the religious legitimacy for jihad in Afghanistan,” Nicholson said, referring to Muslim scholars with expertise in Islamic law.
In January, Indonesia, the world’s most populous Muslim majority country, proposed setting up a committee of ulemas from Indonesia, Afghanistan and Pakistan to help resolve the ongoing conflict in Afghanistan.
Explaining the other parts of the strategy, Nicholson said the Taliban would feel the social pressure when Afghans elect their own leaders later this year in parliamentary elections, whereas the U.S. South Asia policy is applying diplomatic pressure on neighboring Pakistan to use its influence on the Taliban to facilitate reconciliation inside Afghanistan. Nicholson pointed to the increased number of U.S. troops and airpower in the country, as well as the strengthening of Afghan special forces and air force, which he said would add to military pressure on the Taliban.
Political solution
“At the same time, there will be a strong effort in the area of advancing the reconciliation process,” he said.
President Ashraf Ghani last month offered the Taliban the opportunity to come to the table and renounce violence in return for political recognition, the opening of an office in Kabul, jobs, and other perks. He said there were no preconditions for peace talks.
The Taliban have not responded to the offer, leading to speculation they might be considering it.
According to the office of Afghan CEO Abdullah Abdullah, Pakistan’s National Security Adviser Nasir Janjua told him in a meeting that after Ghani’s offer, the Taliban no longer had any excuse to continue fighting.
Pakistan’s ambassador to the United States, Aizaz Ahmad Chaudhry, also indicated his country would like to see the Taliban rehabilitated.
A senior Pakistani military official, who spoke to a group of reporters on condition of anonymity, maintained that his country was pushing the Taliban to be a part of the talks. “We are sincerely trying to persuade them” and their allied Haqqani group to join the Afghan reconciliation process, he said.
The Taliban, meanwhile, have written an open letter to the American people calling for direct dialogue with the U.S. government. The United States has said any talks would have to be Afghan-led.
Muslim committee
Separately, a spokesman for the High Peace Council, a group heading efforts to end the conflict in Afghanistan, said no date was confirmed for the Indonesian initiative. In a briefing with journalists after a council meeting, Akram Khpalwak urged the Pakistani clerics to participate, but indicated their doing so was not confirmed.
Khpalwak said if the Taliban responded negatively to Ghani’s offer, their current offices in Doha, Qatar, could be closed down.
Violence in Afghanistan has not subsided. Recently, a NATO convoy near Kandahar and a foreign security firm in Kabul were targeted, leading to casualties, and in another incident, the Taliban captured a district office in Farah province before Afghan forces pushed them back.
Several high-profile attacks on Kabul this year have also exposed security vulnerabilities of Afghan and foreign forces. One such attack in January killed close to 100 people. Days before, an attack on one of Kabul’s luxury hotels left more than 20 people dead, including many foreigners.
The pressure on Pakistan apparently has not yielded the desired results.
“While there have been actions to date, these actions have not reduced violence; these actions have not produced an end to sanctuaries and support inside Pakistan,” Nicholson said.
