For years, 3D printing has been touted as the solution for everything from construction challenges to manufacturing bottlenecks, but has remained a specialist solution for very specific applications. Professor Mashudu Tshifularo and his team from the University of Pretoria have made use of the specialist nature and innate capabilities of 3D printing to perform the world's first middle ear transplant.
Effectively replacing the hammer, anvil, and stirrup – the ossicles that make up the middle ear – using 3D-printed bones, Professor Tshifularo's procedure carries significantly less risk than known prostheses and their associated surgical procedures. The bones were printed in titanium because it is a biocompatible material.
The surgery, which can be performed on anyone, even newborns, has already helped two patients. According to Prof. Tshifularo, the patients got their hearing back immediately, but because they were wrapped in bandages, it took two weeks (when the bandages were removed) for them to tell the difference in their hearing.
Following the ground-breaking procedure, the Professor told media that the hip replacement inspired him. "The innovation in this idea is to get the same size of the bone, position, shape, weight and length and put it exactly where it needs to be – almost like a hip replacement," he said. Each patient's bones were scanned and printed individually in order to ensure that minute individual differences were included to ensure a higher success rate for the procedure.
"3D technology is allowing us to do things we never thought we could, but I need sponsors and funding for this invention to take off the ground," Prof. Tshifularo said. He wants to make this an affordable procedure, accessible to all South Africans.
The Department of Health is on board, with Health Minister Aaron Motsoaledi calling on donors and developers to support this breakthrough. "As the Department of Health, we shall do everything in our power to assist and mobilise resources to make sure that Professor Tshifularo gets all the help he needs for this far reaching innovation," Motsoaledi said in an interview.
The transplant procedure is quick, with minimal scarring because it uses an endoscope to do the replacement. The procedure reduces the chance of facial nerve paralysis, which can occur if the facial nerve that passes through the middle ear space is damaged during traditional surgery. According to Prof. Tshifularo, this may be the answer to conductive hearing loss from middle ear problems caused by congenital birth defects, infection, trauma or metabolic diseases.
The fact that both surgeries using the new procedure were successful certainly points to its efficacy as a solution to hearing loss, and will hopefully be adopted by ear, nose and throat specialists around the world. Much like Chris Barnard's pioneering heart transplant in the 60's, Prof. Tshifularo's procedure looks set to change the course of medical history, opening the door to more uses of 3D printing for bone replacements in the future.


In the last 46 years, luggage has taken a new spin on functionality. Any traveler who remembers the days of luggage without wheels is probably grateful that Bernard Sadow, president of U.S. Luggage, patented a rolling suitcase in 1972. For those travelers who grew up with wheeled luggage, they welcomed Samsonite's 2004 invention of luggage that could be spun and wheeled in any direction. So, what's next for today's generation of travelers? It appears to be the controversial smart luggage, which is already up against bans and restrictive regulations across multiple airlines.
Smart luggage looks like regular luggage. It takes many forms and incorporates numerous features that are attractive to corporate travelers, including location tracking, RFID blocking, built-in scales and more. The most widely incorporated feature in smart luggage is a hidden, internal battery compartment with ports for charging electronic devices. This convenience allows business travelers to avoid the search for an open outlet in the airport terminal between flight delays. Unfortunately, the battery can pose a fire hazard similar to that of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 incident of 2016. While smart luggage makes for a great travel resource, the latest smart luggage bans are causing travelers a delay in the security line.
Our Director of Sales and road warrior, Susan Thomas, was at the airport for business travel recently when she experienced an announcement at the gate from Delta saying smart luggage could not be carried on board without the battery removed. A screw driver was needed to remove the battery, but it was not provided by the airline and travelers could not take their own through security.
While there are still a few logistics to work out, other airlines are adopting similar rules to ensure the safety of its passengers. Because many planes' fire suppression systems might not detect a lithium battery fire in the cargo hold, airlines are reassuring worried passengers that a potential battery fire in the cabin could be put out by flight attendants immediately with fire extinguishers and fire containment bags, reducing the risk of injury.


Title 14 CFR Part 61 requires a Certificated Flight Instructor candidate to demonstrate 'instructional proficiency' in spinning an aircraft. That means I not only have to be able to put the plane into a spin and recover it, but also instruct as I do so.
My spin sign-off flight was scheduled for 6:30 a.m. this morning.
Unfortunately it was cancelled due to clouds and low ceilings. Ironically, one of the instructors said just yesterday that Las Vegas only has five days of IMC conditions per year. What are the odds?
On the positive side, I had a chance to grab some breakfast before another grueling day of classwork. We started at 8 am and didn't finish until about 6 pm. The only truly new thing were the endorsements. There are about fifty of them, with countless variations depending on the rating or certificate being sought, and the category and class of the aircraft in question.
Hopefully the weather will be better tomorrow.

Q: Python, How to invoke an instance method from inside a another Class I have a Python GUI with a Frame that has one upperpanel and a vertical splitterwindow. For each  Panel in the splitterwindow I created two Panel classes, one with a listbox and the other one with a grid. Each class has several buttons.
Is there is a way to keep the button connect event.bind and function code inside the class and make it work, because, presently I'm getting the following error:
AttributeError: 'Panel' object has no attribute 'm_dirPicker1'

I would like to know which is the best practice in the reported situation.
This is an example a short example of what I have wrote:
class Frame ( wx.Frame ):
    ...
    self.m_datapanel = wx.Panel( self, wx.ID_ANY, wx.DefaultPosition, wx.DefaultSize, wx.TAB_TRAVERSAL )
    self.m_filespanel = Source_Panel( self.m_splitter1)
    self.m_gridpanel = Data_Viewer( self.m_splitter1)

class Source_Panel ( wx.Panel ):
    ...

        # Connect Events
        self.m_listBox.Bind( wx.EVT_LISTBOX_DCLICK, self.m_listBoxOnListBoxDClick )
        self.m_clearbutton.Bind( wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.m_clearbuttonOnButtonClick )
        self.m_importbutton.Bind( wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.m_importbuttonOnButtonClick )
        self.m_showdata.Bind( wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.m_showdataOnButtonClick )

    def __del__( self ):
        pass

    # Virtual event handlers, overide them in your derived class
    def m_listBoxOnListBoxDClick( self, event ):
        event.Skip()

    def m_clearbuttonOnButtonClick( self, event ):
        event.Skip()

    def m_importbuttonOnButtonClick( self, event ):
        src_directory = frame.m_datapanel.m_dirPicker1.GetTextCtrlValue()

    def m_showdataOnButtonClick( self, event ):
        event.Skip()

class Data_Viewer ( wx.Panel ):
    ...

A: I'm going to assume that your Source_Panel instance will be a child of a MyFrame instance (I'm going to refer to your Frame as MyFrame to avoid confusion with the wx.Frame base class).
In that case, the Parent attribute of your Source_Panel instance should refer to the parent MyFrame.
Then you can just call:
self.Parent.m_datapanel.m_dirPicker1.GetTextCtrlValue()

Debunking Myths About Agile (and How to Use it Well)
By Terri Williams
The list of companies using Agile is endless, and there's broad acceptance regarding the importance of the movement.
But beyond IT departments (where, for example, the majority of software developers employ Agile techniques), adoption is not as widespread. That could be due to a lack of clarity about how Agile techniques work, which leads to misconceptions and misuse.
"Frequently, organisations fail to get the real benefits and are Agile in name only, even after heavily investing in training," says John Carter, founder at TCGen, a consulting firm that has advised such companies as Amazon and Apple.
Here's what you need to know about Agile to determine whether it's right for your company, and how best to utilise its techniques. If you've tried implementing it in the past with lackluster results, we'll sort out what might have gone wrong and provide tips on how to effectively right the ship.
What is Agile?
"Agile refers to the ability to move quickly and easily, especially when facing uncertainty," explains Dustin Clinard, vice president of strategic partnerships at betterworks. "Agile has been deployed to develop software, create products and manage projects, often using a series of iterative steps to deliver a product via incremental steps, rather than a more traditional planning exercise that results in a 'final' product being delivered at the end," he says.
According to Darrell Rigby, partner and head of global innovation and Agile practices at Bain & Company, and co-author of "Doing Agile Right," Agile teams are small, cross-functional, fully-dedicated teams that focus on creative, innovative improvements to customer products and services, the business processes that produce them and the technologies that enable those processes.
Agile can improve the innovation process through deep customer collaboration and continuous testing and learning. "The basic steps are as follows: make an observation, ask a question, develop a hypothesis, test the hypothesis with an experiment, then share the insights and conduct more experiments to further improve results," Rigby explains.
Companies currently using Agile include John Deere, which used Agile methods to develop new machines; USAA, which used Agile to transform customer service; and Bosch, which used Agile to reshape the company. "In addition, digital natives such as Amazon, Netflix and Spotify have incorporated Agile methods into a wide range of innovation activities," says Rigby.
How is Agile supposed to work?
Every Agile team has an "owner" and a "coach." While the owner is responsible for delivering value to customers, Rigby explains that the coach helps the team to make continuous improvements in speed, effectiveness and even happiness.
"Team members break complex problems into small modules and then start building working versions of potential solutions in short cycles (less than a month) known as sprints." Transparency is essential. Teams hold daily meetings to briefly review the progress that has been made and identify any roadblocks.
Instead of endless debates and appealing to authority, Rigby says that experimentation and feedback is used to settle disagreements.
"They test small working prototypes of part or all of the offering with a few customers for short periods of time," he says. "If customers get excited, a prototype may be released immediately, even if some senior executive isn't a fan, or others think it needs more bells and whistles." Then, the team brainstorms ways to improve future cycles and prepares to attack the next top priority.
Myths About Agile
Agile's popularity is rivalled only by the myths and misconceptions regarding its application. Rigby shares three of them:
Myth #1: Agile Doesn't Plan
Actually, Agile plans more effectively than traditional management processes, but Rigby says it plans more dynamically. Whereas traditional planning occurs on an annual basis and requires an inordinate amount of time and energy trying to predict the future, Agile organisations plan more quickly and more frequently. "Agile planning develops hypotheses, tests them and defines success not as hitting budgets, but as improving outcomes for customers, employees, investors and communities," Rigby explains. "It focuses on learning, adapting and growing; it tells the truth about forecasts, making it commendable to expose honest uncertainties and potential pivot points." With Agile planning, resources are continuously aligned with updated information regarding strategic priorities.
Myth #2: Agile is Anarchy
There's a fear amongst many leaders that Agile teams have no direction and can do whatever they want. "But empowering Agile teams does not mean disempowering executives, because business leaders own business results," Rigby says." They minimise wasteful spending by funding Agile teams the same way a venture capitalist would: releasing rounds of resources only if teams prove or improve the validity and value of their hypotheses."
Myth #3: In Agile Businesses, Everyone Works in Agile Teams
Although Agile teams create indisputable benefits, this doesn't mean that everyone should be a part of one. "Consider the adverse consequences of encouraging wide variation, on-the-spot experimentation and decentralised decision making—all hallmarks of Agile—in areas such as food or drug safety, antidiscrimination and harassment policies, accounting standards, aircraft safety, quality controls and manufacturing standards," Rigby says.
How Agile is Misused
Misunderstanding can also lead to misuse. These are some of the ways that companies and teams misuse Agile.
Misuse #1: Big-bang Transformations
In large organisations, bureaucracy can actually stifle Agile principles and practices. "Executives go behind closed doors for six months, emerge with a grand restructuring plan, command and control its execution and then claim to have an Agile organisation," Rigby says.
Misuse #2: Agile as a Euphemism for Layoffs
While Agile does increase productivity through systemic process innovations over time, Rigby says it should not be used for widespread chaotic layoffs.
Misuse #3: Copycat Agile
It's easy to hear success stories and then try to mimic a company's actions and organisational chart. "However, similar charts deliver dissimilar results under different leaders, strategies, management systems and cultures," Rigby warns. "Moreover, in trying to shortcut the process, copycats fail to develop critical skills for adapting, customising and harmonising all the elements of a complex operating system."
Misuse #4: Delegating Agile
Top-down management doesn't work well in an Agile environment. "Too many times, we have seen top leaders plan an Agile transformation for their subordinates," Rigby says. "They create a high-powered programme management office that generates detailed budgets, milestones and execution roadmaps to ensure conformance to plans." However, senior executives need to understand Agile and use it with their own teams, instead of creating Agile teams that will likely be led by managers who don't have sufficient Agile training.
Misuse #5: Inept, Inconsistent Agile Practices
If you have multiple teams doing Agile in different ways, that's a sign that they may not really be Agile. "Team members multitask, refuse to develop roadmaps and fail to develop or test prototypes, and then managers wonder why Agile is failing to deliver expected results," Rigby says.
Leaders often don't understand that Agile isn't easy. "In principle, it sounds appealing, but in reality, doing it requires skilled facilitators in new roles, working in new ways, following a whole set of new rules and having to implement new IT systems," says Carter. "We recommend 'small "a" agile,' where the focus is on the three pillars that lead to success and avoid the morass of process and technology that ties companies in a knot."
Carter says these are the three pillars that define Agile, and, if well-executed, can lead to better solutions faster:
Short intervals of work with interim milestones
Empowered teams with a clear project mandate
Continual feedback from the customer (internal or external)

Q: shrinking a syslog sql database I am trying to shrink a SQL database used for our syslog monitoring. the DB is about 43GB right now, and i'm sure hasn't been cleaned up in years. I recently inherited this DB when someone quit, and i'm not sure how to even access it or clean it up. I've tried to do the standard SHRINK on either the database or the files, and it seems to drop it down to about 40GB, but within minutes when a new entry gets logged to the DB, it immediately goes right back to the original 43GB size. Is there a way to remove data older than a certain number of years or months? We are currently without a DB Admin and i'm just trying to do what i can to free up some space on DB that potentially has years worth of old data.
edit: MS Sql Server 2005

A: Be careful here since this will delete data permanently from your database!
If you truly want to remove old data from the database and your dates are in a date type column you can do that using a SQL DELETE command. Something like this:
DELETE FROM <tablename> WHERE <datecolumn> < '01/01/2008';

This will delete all rows from the table with a date earlier than 2008. You will have to substitute the table name from the schema for <tablename> and the column in that table that contains the date of entry for <datecolumn>.
If the date column isn't an actual DATE type then you're going to have to do some conversion to get it into a date.

Straight out of "Silicon valley": the original Site notifies the races of Bitcoin
In a recent episode of "Silicon valley" Gilfoyle (Martin Starr) admits that sometimes mines bitcoins, but only when the price rises above a certain value.
Notifies Gilfoyle the fluctuations in the prices special application installed on the computer. As soon as Bitcoin deviates from the threshold prices, the program starts to play the song "You Suffer" death metal band Napalm Death, the duration of 1.36 seconds. The song serves as the signal for him to start a mining farm.
Given the volatility of Bitcoin and the length of the song, it quickly goes to all the others.
Icelandic Viska Agency involved in design of websites, created their version of the application Gilfoil, which is so impressive as promised. Gudmundsson, sindri of Viska explained that the employees of his company are fans of the series and once a week gather to discuss the new episode. The app was developed by the guys "just for fun".Team Viska wrote a simple Javascript plugin which monitors the data about the Bitcoin exchange rate on Coincap.io and then ustroila it in your WordPress site. On the development and implementation took about three hours. Now everyone can imitate Gilfoyle.
"We are all closely behind Bitcoin and enjoy this beautiful music every time he passes a certain threshold. And it always makes our day better" — shared his emotions Gudmundsson.
It's hard to say he was joking or not, calling 1,36-used phrase "You suffer" beautiful music. If you believe the registers of the Guinness Book of records, the lyrics consists only of "You suffer but why?" Although for the average listener it's more like "NUOOOOOH".

BRIDGETOWN, Barbados, Tuesday December 30, 2014, CMC – Three general elections and continued socio-economic problems may have made the headlines in the Caribbean in 2014, but it was the Chikungunya virus, the mosquito borne disease that really caught the attention of the region over the past 12 months.
In addition, while no cases had been recorded, Caribbean countries were putting in place various measures to deal with the deadly Ebola virus that have killed more than 7,000 people in West Africa and spread also by the same mosquito responsible for the Chikungunya virus.
A crippling mosquito-borne virus with a tongue twisting name, Chikungunya first appeared in the Caribbean towards the end of 2013. But by the end of 2014, every Caribbean Community (CARICOM) country had recorded cases of the virus caused by the aedes aegypti mosquito that causes a dengue-like sickness.
Symptoms include a sudden high fever, severe pain in the wrists, ankles or knuckles, muscle pain, headache, nausea, and rash. Joint pain and stiffness are more common with Chikungunya than with dengue. The symptoms appear between four to seven days after the bite of an infected mosquito.
The Trinidad-based Caribbean Public Health Agency (CARPHA) warned the Caribbean has not yet felt the "full impact" of the disease.
"There is an estimate in excess of 600,000 cases in total, most of those being from the bigger countries like the Dominican Republic and Haiti with 37 deaths in total. So it continues to spread," said CARPHA's executive director Dr. James Hospedales.
Dr. Hospedales said that with a population of 17 million people, the region is still in the early stages of the virus, warning "the full bloom of Chikungunya virus is yet to come.
The situation forced regional leaders to hold a special summit in Trinidad and Tobago in November and at the end of the three hour deliberation, they outlined a series of measures to deal with both the Chikungunya and Ebola viruses.
"Heads of government expressed considerable concern, not just in relation to the possible health impact of the Ebola virus disease (EVD), but also about the disruption a single case could cause in the economic and social life of the region," CARICOM Chairman Gaston Browne, the Antigua and Barbuda Prime Minister said afterwards.
Browne said that the leaders had adopted a 10-point plan to deal with Ebola and a four point plan to deal with the Chikungunya virus with CARPHA coordinated the strategy that would have an international input.
"There must be a well-coordinated, continuous public education campaign on how the disease is spread, targeting the citizenry, travellers and tourism stakeholders," said Browne, noting that the leaders had agreed that there must be a multi-sectoral approach to fighting the disease that would include education, tourism, media, local government and other sectors and capabilities, including private enterprises and explore the use of new technologies.
Regarding the Ebola virus for which there is no cure, some Caribbean countries took the unprecedented step of imposing a travel ban on nationals from three West African countries, namely –Sierra Leone, Liberia, and Guinea.
The Ebola virus may have been at the center of the decision by Suriname to back out of hosting the 100th session of the African Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) Council of Ministers in November.
Paramaribo announced the cancellation of the November 3-4 event even though it said it was making all necessary preparations for the summit, including putting in place measures to prevent possible transmission of the deadly Ebola virus by visitors from West Africa.
As a result, the summit was held in Brussels in December and Guyana's Ambassador to Belgium and the European, Dr. P.I. Gomes was elected as the new ACP Secretary General, replacing Alhaji Muhammad Mumuni.
Gomes will take office in March 2015 and Guyana's Foreign Affairs Minister Carolyn Rodrigues-Birkett said "the ACP is at a critical juncture and experience and wise leadership coupled with patience are critical if we are to overcome the challenges.
"Ambassador Gomes possesses these attributes," she said, adding "go now and serve the African, Caribbean and Pacific group with distinction as you have served your own country, Guyana".
Gomes was not the only Caribbean person seeking a vote in 2014.
In Antigua and Barbuda, after 10 years in the political wilderness, Gaston Browne led the Antigua and Barbuda Labour Party (ABLP) to victory in the general election in June.
"It is evident that the people have spoken and they have spoken resoundly" Brown said reminding the nation that "the work has just begun (and) the reality is that this country is in dire straits and would require the efforts of the entire nation".
Browne said he was determined to implement policies and measures that would make Antigua and Barbuda an economic powerhouse in the Caribbean.
"We have actually set an impressive vision for this country," he said urging the nation that they should buy into the concept and not take the vision lightly.
By yearend, Baldwin Spencer, who led the United Progressive Party (UPP) administration was signaling his intention to quit politics. The UPP lost by a 14-3 margin to the ABLP in the June 12 general election.
"If we'd won the elections, I'd already indicated that I would not have completed the full term. I would have, at some point, demitted office to allow for the necessary transition to take place and for new leadership to emerge. The fact that we're now in opposition doesn't take away from that position…I'm even more strengthened in my view that that is what should happen," he said.
In neighbouring Montserrat, the People's Democratic Movement (PDM) led by Donaldson Romeo denied Premier Reuben T. Meade another five year term in office.
Romeo called for a united Montserrat as the new government promised to face the task of rebuilding the island battered by a volcano.
"There is nothing in that manifesto that we cannot do. I expect us to do even more," he said, while Meade congratulated Romeo on a "well fought battle" during the September 11 poll.
Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit made it three in a row, when he led his Dominica Labour Party (DLP) to a 15-6 victory in the December 8 general election.
The victory was marginally smaller than the 18-3 majority he had enjoyed in the last Parliament and while the main opposition United Workers Party (UWP) claimed the polls had been stolen, Skerrit said he embraced the victory with "humility and introspection.
"We now have a smaller working majority in Parliament but we nevertheless have an overwhelming mandate to carry forward and implement the policies set forth in our manifesto.
"I would want to believe that in the debates in Parliament, support will be given where support is deserving, and constructive criticism will be levelled when merited"," Skerrit saying reiterating the message he had been using on the campaign that "there is one Dominica".
After months of speculation, voters in Guyana will know early in 2015 when they will go to the polls to elect a government after yet another year of political gamesmanship highlighted by a motion of no confidence filed against the Donald Ramotar administration by the minority opposition Alliance for Change (AFC) and supported by the main opposition grouping, A Partnership for National Unity (APNU).
President Ramotar prorogued the National Assembly in November after accusing the opposition parties that control a one seat majority in the 65-seat legislature, of putting their narrow political agendas ahead of Guyana.
By yearend, he was informing the nation that he would probably announce the election date in his New Years address or before Mashramani, an annual festival that celebrates Guyana becoming a Republic in 1970. It is usually held on February 23.
The St. Kitts-Nevis government, for yet another year, was able to deny the opposition legislators an opportunity to debate a motion of no confidence filed against Prime Minister Dr. Denzil Douglas in 2012.
But the opposition believes that the courts will hear arguments in 2015 as to why motion has not been tabled in the Parliament.
At a case management in October, the trial judge, Justice Marlene Carter set the dates January 19-20 for the matter to proceed.
In the French-speaking Caribbean country of Haiti, President Michel Martelly is ending 2014 hoping that his nominee for the post of prime minister will be accepted. But opposition legislators have already laid down conditions for accepting Evans Paul as the new prime minister to replace Laurent Lamothe who resigned in December.
Late November, Martelly announced the establishment of an 11-member Presidential Commission to help him deal with Haiti's worsening political crisis as opposition demonstrators took to the streets to force him out of office.
Martelly met with several social and political groups in a bid to pave the way for the holding of the long-delayed election to renew two thirds of the 30-member Senate, the entire Lower Chamber and hundreds of local government bodies.
But six opposition legislators have consistently refused to attend the meetings of the Senate preventing the body from getting the required 16-member quorum needed to hold a session.
Political observers note that by January 12, next year, the Haitian parliament will become dysfunctional with only 10 senators left, while 16 is required to hold a session. The observers note that failure to elect the new Senators could result in President Martelly ruling by decree.
In April, the ruling MegaCombination coalition government in Suriname has booted out one of its members after accusing it of playing "blackmail politics".
Leader of Pertjajah Luhur (PL) party, Paul Somohardjo, confirmed that his organization, which had six seats, was no longer a member of the coalition, leaving President Desi Bouterse with just a slender one seat majority in the 51-member National Assembly.
Bouterse's National Democratic Party (NDP) holds 23 seats and former rebellion leader Ronny Brunswijk's A-Combination (ABOP) has three seats, giving the coalition a slender majority in the Parliament. In 2012 the Niew Suriname party left the coalition.
The coalition People's Partnership government in Trinidad and Tobago is preparing to face the electorate in 2015 and amid allegations by opposition parties of its intention to ensure victory by any means necessary, it successfully piloted the controversial amendment to the Constitution even as hundreds of citizens protested outside the parliament building.
The legislation allows for a two consecutive term for the prime minister, the right to recall legislators and perhaps the most contentious, the need for a run-off vote in the event that a candidate fails to acquire the 50 per cent of the votes cast in a general election.
The government said the legislation was influenced by the recommendations coming out of the 21 public consultations held by the Constitution Reform Commission (CRF) chaired by the Legal Affairs Minister Prakash Ramadhar.
Prime Minister Kamla Persad Bissessar, who sent two of her ministers packing this year, said she was prepared to face "political suicide" in getting the legislation approved, and dismissed critics of the bill as that "one lone voice crying like a wolf in the wilderness".
"I'm prepared to face political harakiri – suicide – because I trust the people of Trinidad and Tobago," she said.
Opposition Leader Dr Keith Rowley, meanwhile, called on nationals to "rise up" to protect democracy in Trinidad and Tobago claiming that the amendment to the Constitution was a recipe for disaster.
He said the bill was also designed o keep a government in power, even if it lost the general election.
"I would like to invite every citizen to rise up and join us with vigilance and conviction in protecting, again, our democracy," he said in a television broadcast.
The Courts here also ruled as premature, moves by the minority Independent Liberal Party (IPL) headed by former national security minister Austin "Jack" Warner, for a judicial review of the legislation. The IPL has since said it would take the matter to the London-based Privy Council.
Voters in St. Vincent and the Grenadines are also likely to go to the polls ahead of the March 13, 2015 constitutional deadline, with the ruling Unity Labour Party (ULP) already announcing that Camillo Gonsalves, the son of Prime Minister Dr. Ralph Gonsalves will contest the next general election.
Gonsalves, who is the foreign affairs minister in his father's administration, will contest the East St. George constituency with his likely challenger being the former regional cricketer, accountant and attorney, Linton Lewis of the main Opposition New Democratic Party's (NDP).
"I am overwhelmed …and I want to, with profound gratitude and humility and respect and love, say that I accept your nomination to be the next representative of the Unity Labour Party in East St. George," he told supporters. The seat has been won by the ULP in the last three general elections.
Politics aside, the Caribbean continued to struggle economically with the Washington-based International Monetary Fund (IMF) indicating that economic activity in the Caribbean is expected to stay in low gear in 2014. It said growth remains tepid in most of the Caribbean and while the recovery in the United States and other advanced economies is expected to bolster export growth, lower world commodity prices and rising global funding costs are likely to weigh on activity across the region.
The IMF in its Regional Economic Outlook for the Western Hemisphere" is projecting regional growth of 2.5 per cent in 2014.
The Chile-based Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) also indicated that that Caribbean economies will grow to two per cent "which implies a recovery from the 1.2 per cent registered in 2013".
Despite the gloomy economic forecast, the Barbados government, which instituted an austerity programme resulting in several thousand public servants being axed, said it would remain firmly committed to the strategy for growth and development on which it has embarked.
In fact, Bridgetown insists that "the strategy has already begun to show positive results".
Prime Minister Freundel Stuart responding to the latest downgrade of the island's long-term sovereign rating by the US-based rating agency, Standard & Poor's, in December, said that the strategy is one "based on Barbados' established competitive strengths in tourism, international business and finance, and food and beverages, and on the island's potential for green energy.
"It is a strategy led by investment and outstanding entrepreneurship by the private sector, supported by government incentives and world class financial regulation and legal safeguards. The strategy is anchored on our fixed exchange rate to the US dollar, which is protected by an adequate cushion of foreign exchange reserves," Prime Minister Stuart said.
For its part, the Grenada government which signed a three-year US$21.7 million Extended Credit Facility (ECF) programme with the IMF, called on trade unions to accept a three-year wage freeze.
"I want to appeal to all the Grenadian people to work with us, this is a national issue, this is not a political issue, we are about nation building, we have this long term plan to see Grenada out of this fiscal situation it is in, and at the end Grenada will benefit," said the island's Minister of Economic Development, Planning and Trade, Oliver Joseph.
In St. Lucia, Prime Minister Dr. Kenny Anthony enjoyed a bit more breathing space after the Trade Union Federation (TUF) accepted a three year wage freeze as his administration deals with a fiscal deficit of EC$76 million (One EC dollar =US$0.37 cents).
"The Federation conveyed to government its understanding of the current economic situation facing the country, and was ready to assist by making certain sacrifices towards alleviation of the situation," the TUF President, Julian Monrose noted. But the Civil Service Association (CSA), which represents the majority of public servants here, said it would not be party to the accord.
Despite its economic challenges, Antigua and Barbuda made it clear that the 36-month Stand By Agreement (SBA) with the IMF in 2010 for an original amount of US$121.9 million failed to improve the economic situation and is partly to blame for stagnating the economy.
Prime Minister Browne said then that his administration would not be seeking to enter into a new agreement with the IMF and would be seeking a loan from Venezuela to repay the Fund.
While St. John's was being critical of the Washington-based financial institution, the Portia Simpson-Miller administration in Jamaica continued its relationship with the IMF that said the island's Extended Fund Facility (EFF), was on track and all programme targets were being met.
"The economic outlook is improving, activity is estimated to have expanded by about 1.8 per cent year on year during April – June 2014," said Jan Kees Martijn, who headed an IMF mission to Jamaica in November.
But the IMF also advised the Jamaica government to enact another wage restraint programme in order to meet the country's planned 2015/16 budgetary targets.
"A key component to achieving the fiscal targets will be securing a new multi-year wage agreement, and the Government of Jamaica is now actively engaged with employee representatives to reach an agreement that facilitates achievement of the targeted wage bill of nine per cent of GDP," said a statement published on the IMF website on December 23 by Serge Dupont, IMF executive director for Jamaica, and Trevor Lessard, alternate executive director.
For its part, St. Kitts-Nevis became the first Caribbean country to repay, ahead of schedule, US$17.1 million in obligations to the IMF.
Acting Financial Secretary, Mrs. Hilary Haze said the money in question "was granted as part of the Stand-By Arrangement (SBA) support by the IMF for a specific reason and that reason is to support the banking sector in the event that something was to go wrong as a result of the restructuring, as a result of going through the programme".
In July, the IMF said the payment made on June 24, was about one fourth of the US$73.1 million that the twin-island Federation borrowed from the IMF under its SBA.
The drastic decline in global oil prices, while welcomed by Caribbean oil importing countries, meant however, financial problems for Port of Spain, with the Finance Minister Larry Howai indicating that Cabinet would soon decide on measures to deal with a declining revenue stream brought about by the rapid decline in the price for oil on global market.
Trinidad and Tobago's 2015 national budget is based on a reference price of US$80 per barrel of oil and a gas price of US$2.75 cents per mnbtu. But in recent months, oil prices had dropped from a high of US$102.90 cents a barrel to below US$55 a barrel.
As the Caribbean continued to deal with the impact of the global economic crisis, several foreign owned banks, such as CIBC First Caribbean International, Scotia Bank and Royal Bank of Canada announced the closure of several branches in the region, resulting in several layoffs.
In July, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe became the first Japanese head of government to visit the Caribbean and announced a US$15 million programme to help regional countries cope with the impact of climate change.
The "Project for Japan-Caribbean Climate Change Partnership" will help Guyana, Grenada, Jamaica, Suriname, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, St. Lucia, Dominica and Belize build the capacity to cope with climate change.
The economic situation in the Caribbean was not being helped by the illegal migration of people and in the case of the Bahamas, Nassau strongly defended its immigration policy that critics claim is "unconstitutional" and dehumanising.
The policy came into effect on November 1 and calls on foreigners to show evidence that they have permission to live or work in the country.
Foreign Affairs and Immigration Minister Fred Mitchell said that he wanted to debunk the allegations made against the new policy, noting that the reputation of The Bahamas was being tarnished.
"Nothing is more important to us than that in the international arena, whether in the hemisphere or in the sub region or around the world. Reputation is everything. The respect which we have around the world depends upon our reputation," he told the Organisation of American States (OAS).
But by yearend, the government was forced to defend allegations that it was herding illegal migrations in a cage like "cattle".
President of the Grand Bahamas Human Rights Association (GBHRA), Fred Smith, said in light of the recently-surfaced image showing suspected illegal immigrants penned in a mobile enclosure more suited to the transportation of livestock than human beings, the GBHRA was demanding that Mitchell gave "a satisfactory explanation of the behavior of public servants under his charge".
But the Bahamas was not the only Caribbean country complaining about illegal immigrants. Trinidad and Tobago's National Security Minister Gary Griffith said that the oil rich twin island republic was now the home for an estimated 110,012 illegal immigrants.
He went as far as inviting Jamaican officials to Port of Spain for talks after saying there were an estimated 19,000 illegal Jamaicans residing there and "these people are dependent on State resources such as education and health care, may be employed and are not subject to taxes, which amounts to a loss of revenue of over $1 billion (One TT dollar =US$0.16 cents) per annum".
In December, the government spent TT$2.6 million in charting an aircraft to fly home 12 illegal Ghana nationals.
Attorney General Anand Ramlogan said that it was "mischievous, malicious and very dangerous" for allegations to be made that the Indo-dominated government was also engaged in racial profiling in the deportation of illegal immigrants.
Dino Bouterse, the son of Suriname's President Desi Bouterse is before a United States court on drug related charges, terrorism and weapons trafficking allegations following his arrest in Panama in August.
Manhattan District Attorney Preet Bharara said that Bouterse was planning to support the Hezbollah, the Shi'a Islamic militant group and political party based in Lebanon, in launching attacks on the United States.
If found guilty of the terrorism charge, the President's son could face 15 years in prison, in addition to the mandatory minimum term of 40 years in jail if he is convicted on the weapons and illegal drugs charges.
President Bouterse was also facing his own legal battles in 2014 as he made another effort to have dismissed the conviction and jail sentence imposed on him in absentia by a court in the Netherlands.
His attorney, Inez Weski, said that his client has filed an appeal against the 11-year jail term handed out by the court here in 1999.
She said that Patrick van L., the Belgian who had given incriminating statements against Bouterse has since recanted his story and for years has tried to clean the President's slate.
Former president Jean Bertrand Aristide has been prohibited from leaving Haiti as law enforcement authorities probe allegations of corruption, misappropriation of public funds and drug trafficking during his 2001-4 presidency, immigration officials have confirmed.
Aristide and several of his former colleagues have been accused of embezzling hundreds of millions of dollars from the State treasury through his Aristide for Democracy Foundation and other organizations.
The Jamaican Dance Hall artiste, Vybz Kartel was jailed for life after he was found guilty on March 13 for the murder of Clive 'Lizard' Williams.
Kartel, whose real name is Adjidja Palmer, was charged along with Shawn Campbell, Kahira Jones and Andre St John. He will serve 35 years in jail before he becomes eligible for parole, while Campbell and Jones will serve 25 years, and St John 30.
Police say Williams was killed over the disappearance of two missing firearms. His body has not been found.
In 2014, the region bade farewell to several prominent people such as former Trinidad President ANR Robinson, former Haitian president Leslie Manigat, Caribbean academic, Professor Norman Girvan, Jamaica's fourth head of state, Sir Howard Cooke, the assassinated Trinidad and Tobago attorney Dana Seetahal, Jamaica's Agriculture Minister Roger Clarke and the Barbadian religious minister Dr. Holmes Williams.
In addition, former Bermuda premier, Sir David Gibbons, former St. Lucia Education ministers Louis Bertrand George and Hunter J. Francois, the former member of the Regional Judicial and Legal Services Commission Dr Joseph Archibald QC, former St. Lucia High Court judge, Suzie d'Auvergne, former president of the OECS Bar Association, Hilford Deterville and veteran Grenadian journalist Leslie Pierre, all passed away in 2014.
The music world also bade farewell to William Clarke, the leader singer of the world renowned Jamaican reggae group, Third World.


Weather: Fine and sunny with a short shower near end of walk.
Comments: Our group of 8 set off on a very much up and down walk. First down to Leeshaw Reservoir, up Bodkin and Stairs Lane to Top of Stairs and down to Paddock Beck for a coffee stop. Then up to Shackleton Knoll, down to Walshaw, up to Wadsworth Moor before dropping down to Walshaw Dean Reservoirs for lunch at a shooters hut. Here we joined the Pennine Way up over the moors to Top Withins with its connections with Emily Bronte, before joining the Bronte Way down to Bronte Bridge. It started raining as we made our way back up to the cars at Penistone. At least the rain did not last long and we were rewarded with a rainbow as we neared the car park.

Keywords: Ni determination, Liquid-liquid extraction, Schiff bases, Spectrophotometry
An extraction-spectrophotometric method for determination of nickel at sub ppm level using 2-[(2-mercaptophenylimino)methyl]phenol (MPMP) as the new extractant is described. The reagent reacts with nickel(II) at pH > 10 and form a 1:2 brown complex, which is extracted into chloroform. The complex has a maximum absorption at 421 nm with the molar absorptivity of 2.41 × 105 M-1 cm-1. Beer's law is obeyed over the range of 0.011-0.30 µg mL-1. The Sandell's sensitivity for 0.001 absorbance unit is 5.34 × 10-4 µg cm-2. The relative standard deviation at 0.018 µg mL-1 is 1.1 % (n = 8). The procedure was successfully applied to determination of nickel in wastewater and standard alloy and the accuracy was determined by recovery experiment, independent analysis by furnace-AAS, and analysis of a certified reference martial.
KEY WORDS: Ni determination, Liquid-liquid extraction, Schiff bases, Spectrophotometry

Just Cause 4 Review (PC): Blow 'em up
Victor Philip Ortiz
Let's take a look at the latest installment in this action-adventure franchise.
The memories of Just Cause 3 that was released in 2015 are still fresh, and since I still have the game every once in a while I still play it just to see stuff blow up. I've played around 15 hours of Just Cause 4, and if you've enjoyed Part 3 there's a good chance you'll enjoy this fourth installment – but it's not without its flaws.
Just Cause 4 is set in Solis, somewhere around South America. The place is home to extreme weather – which is one of the new ways for the game to cause mayhem and destruction. Our hero Rico Rodriguez takes on Gabriela Morales, who runs the Black Hand which in turn is the most powerful private army in the world. He can also control the weather, so expect that extreme weather to be even more, well, extreme.
With that basic story aside, the entire game basically runs through various explosions that's standard for any Just Cause game. Nearly every object in the game can be blown up – even the ones that don't normally do explodes an over-the-top manner. It's normally fun to see stuff explode much like a Michael Bay movie, but this time you're in control.
Solis is a huge map filled with various surroundings, so you'll never run out of place to grapple on to or missions to complete. Speaking of the grapple, Rico's main retractor grapple is still his best weapon. It gets new modes, though it's more for playing around the large map instead of helping during combat. The game also gives you a huge selection of weapons and tools to create mayhem, and you don't have to work that hard to unlock special items.
The over-the-top stunts that Rico does embody the whole game. It's never challenging unless you consider blowing up multiple tanks in a crazy chain reaction without dying a challenge. The added weather elements are nice, but I feel like the game could have used more, considering how great the graphics looked like.
I played the game on PC, but I've encountered some crashes that were rectified with an update. You have to commend the developers for the realistic visuals and surroundings, which made gameplay even more exciting.
If you're a fan of the franchise then you'll definitely enjoy Just Cause 4. It improves on every aspect and has a larger and bigger map. While it's great seeing more explosions after you play the game you still feel that it could've been better.
We Love:
+ Incredible visuals
+ Over the top explosion make the game a lot of fun
We Hate:
– Didn't really add anything new compared to the last game
Final Rating: 3.5/5

Design Competition Finalists Re-imagine Infrastructure Around Erie Boulevard In Syracuse and Dewitt
WAER | By Chris Bolt
The finalists for the "Elevating Erie" project were unveiled at the Erie Canal Museum Thursday Night. These cutting edge designs to transform parts of Syracuse and Dewitt could spark change in city infrastructure.
For many people there's little connection between Erie Boulevard and the Erie Canal. But a design competition - and some creative future thinking - are trying to change that.
Architect and planner Jeff Olson of the design firm ALTA was a judge at the competition. He started out by thanking the entrants, who collectively came from 16 different countries.
"We don't get enough chances to do this, to have imagination - be a leader in our communities and to help look at that 50 year future supervisors said we're building," Olson said.
This entry depicts luxury apartments behind Erie Boulevard and the re-opening of the canal, which would allow sailboats to drift down the water. The competition was opened in the Fall of 2015 by the City of Syracuse and Town of DeWitt.
And the designs are certainly futuristic. Some envision a new plan for Erie Boulevard with park-like, bike, pedestrian and alternative transportation corridors. Others re-cast the wetlands near Bridge Street as a park, wildlife area, or waterfront for businesses and restaurants. Another imagines a DNA-shaped bridge for walkers and bicyclists that would connect the Erie Canal in Dewitt across Route 481. Some of the ideas focused on closing a gap in the Cycle the Erie Canal trail through Syracuse.
Landscape Architect Chris Reed of the design firm Stoss said many designs utilize, in some way, the old Erie Canal; the original plan is just re-imagined.
"How can we think of multiple uses, layered on to that line of infrastructure?" Stross said. "You see this across the states, you see this around the world, how cities are kind of rediscovering some of the infrastructures of the past, making them into parks, looking at ways to kind of reengage in that history. At the same time, they look forward to redevelopment and reinvestment."
Dewitt Town Supervisor Ed Michaelenko says many of the ideas contained in the designs match up with goals of town development.
"Establishing safe bike and pedestrian paths, improving traffic flow, enhancing business and residential opportunities, and providing green space and increasing property values - in support, the town is currently planning to restore the wide waters of Erie Boulevard and Bridge Street," Michaelenko said. "I call it Dewitt's Manius Duck Pond."
Of course investment, and who would do it, are the big questions - especially given costs of some of the more imaginative designs. But planner Jeff Olson said a turning tide of investment in urban areas.
"I would characterize this movement as 29 years of pushing a rock up a hill, and then there's this year," Olson said. "All of a sudden, it feels like we're going downhill with the wind at our back. Projects that we had never imagined would happen are happening on a regular basis. Walkway Over the Hudson, New York City Greenway System – I was in Saratoga this morning working on a greenbelt trail, a complete loop around the perimeter of our city."
This entry shows the use of a two-level, bike and pedestrian DNA-shaped bridge that would wind around Route 481 to connect Syracuse and Dewitt. All submissions are on display at the Erie Canal Museum and online.
The right design and enough proponents could be coming along at the right time. The Upstate Revitalization Initiative recently awarded the area $500 million for development of projects related to city infrastructure.
The Elevating Erie Designs can be viewed at the Erie Canal Museum through August 14. The entries are also available online, where the public is encouraged to give feedback on ideas that were submitted. This online survey is also designed to gage community priorities for the corridor.
