‘We are
helpless’
Diptee and others call for guns
PORT OF SPAIN
\\\\\ Alexander Bruzual

BUSINESS owners who qualify for li-
censed firearms should be given the
weapons to defend themselves.
This is the recommendation of
Supermarket Association of Trinidad
and Tobago (SATT) president Rajiv
Diptee.
“First off, we would want to ex-
press our condolences, thoughts and
prayers for the family of the Gold-
en City Supermarket. It’s one of the
prominent groceries in the San Juan
area. The association has been high-
lighting the recent slew of these inci-
dents as it pertained to armed robber-
ies of supermarkets and the various
vulnerabilities that they face. We
have also been trying to work more
closely with the Trinidad and Tobago
Police Service to see how more resil-
ient crime-fighting measures can be
put in place because we have been
noticing this increase in robberies
and larcenies since the reopening of
the economy last year following the
Covid-19 pandemic,” he told the Ex-
press in a phone interview yesterday.
Diptee was referring to the mur-
der of Golden City owner Bing Zhu
Zhang, 49, during an attempted rob-
bery on Friday night.
“What we will suggest is that
law-abiding business owners who are
suitably qualified within the remits of
the law be granted their (firearm us-
er’s licence). The most complaints we
get are from supermarket owners who
have applied, and not getting approved.
Some are even saying their applications
or even applications for variations are
not even being acknowledged in recent
times. And given the current crime sit-
uation in the country where criminals
have easy access to illegal firearms, then
it’s time that businessmen find ways to
properly defend themselves. Because
we are helpless. And most of us cannot
afford 24/7 armed security personnel,”
Diptee said.
He called on the police to increase
patrols in hotspot areas, and to work
closely with the business community.
Diptee also asked business own-
ers to conduct vulnerability assess-
ments on their own compounds so
they would know exactly where safe-
ty issues were.
Former police commissioner Gary
Griffith agreed yesterday with Diptee,
saying it was a citizen’s right to apply
for firearms.
“We have laws that allow citizens
the right to apply to be armed, and
so long as they meet all necessary re-
quirements, then the police commis-
sioner would give such approval. To

date, dozens of law-abiding citizens
have been issued firearm user’s li-
cences (FULs) and have used them to
defend themselves, their loved ones
and their assets,” he said.
More police/army patrols
Secretary of the San Juan Business
Association Abrahim Ali said he be-
lieved more joint police/army patrols
are needed to combat crime.
While he did not object to busi-
nessmen applying for and getting
firearms, he suggested that firearm
owners needed to train with their
weapons continuously, something he
felt many firearm owners did not do.
“It’s not just about having a firearm.
You need the appropriate training and
it’s a continuous thing. And sadly, many
businessmen don’t do that. They will get
their firearms and think that is the end
of it. And you can run into situations
where, if for instance, you don’t treat
with your weapon continuously, the
ammunition can go cold and the gun
can jam on you. And then it’s nothing
more than a paperweight to throw at the
criminal elements. So persons who have
and are applying for firearms need that
constant training,” Ali told the Express in
a phone interview yesterday.
“Outside of that what we think is the
police should now have the joint police/
army patrols revisited and be conducted
continuously throughout the communi-
ties. There needs to be a greater police
presence and visibility on the streets.
So that criminals know that they will
be caught when they decide to do their
deeds. There needs to be a public show
of force that will limit deviant behaviour.
And that’s the best option I think we can
use for now,” he said.

Teen drowns at beach

THE body of a 18-year-old
man was recovered at Pen-
zance Beach in Rampan-
algas yesterday morning,
several hours after he disap-
peared while swimming.
Declon Estrada, of Fitts
Trace in Sangre Grande, was
said to be enjoying a day out
at the beach with a group
of friends and family when
around 3.30 p.m. on Satur-
day, he encountered difficul-
ties while in the water.
He disappeared, and his
friends raised an alarm.
However, Estrada could
not be located.
The police were notified
and a team of officers led by
Sgt Edwards responded.
The officers were joined
by personnel from the
Hunters Search and Rescue
Team, along with family
members and villagers.
However, Estrada’s body
could not be found up to 7
p.m. on Saturday and due to
poor lighting the search had
to be called off.
The search resumed at
about 6 a.m. yesterday, and
within two hours, police
found Estrada’s body a short
distance away from where
he was last seen.
The body was viewed by
the District Medical Officer
and ordered removed to the
Sangre Grande Mortuary.
A post-mortem has been
ordered to confirm the cause
of death.
When the Express visit-
ed Estrada’s home yester-
day, relatives spoke briefly,
saying the 18-year-old was

a well-loved, and caring
young man, who was very
ambitious and working to-
wards his dreams.
They said that they were
grateful to all who respond-
ed and aided in finding Es-

However, they also
claimed that social media
posts about his death had
contained several incorrect
articles of information that
had hurt the family, and
they did not wish to discuss
anything further with the
public.

n Central Bank manager:

Crypto still has issues
CHANGES NEEDED: Terrence Clarke
Verdel Bishop
verdel.bishop@trinidadexpress.com
IF cryptocurrency is to be fur-
ther developed there must be a
sense of market integrity.
So said Terrence Clarke, sen-
ior manager, Macroeconomics/
Finance at the Central Bank of
Trinidad and Tobago.
Clarke, who was speaking at
Thursday’s webinar hosted by
the Institute of International Re-
lations (IIR), on the topic “Cryp-
tocurrencies and their Potential
Impact in the Caribbean”, said
there are people who see cryp-
tocurrency as competition for
regular banking.
“A lot of people see crypto-
currency as competition for tra-
ditional banking, and there are
benefits to the Caribbean, but
there are also issues,” Clarke
said.
He added, “We want to see
innovation. We want to see
growth. We want to see develop-
ment, but it has to be balanced
with responsible financial devel-
opment. We want to ensure that
there is financial stability, we
want to see some limited con-
trol.”
He added, “We want to see
minimised volatility in the mar-
ket rate and we want to see
that there is a sense of market
integrity and not feel that there
is someone playing around in a
market forcing market prices to
go up and we want to ensure
that there is no illegal activity
taking place.”
Clarke said existing legisla-
tion is not effective.
“I am personally being told
about people having been in-
vested in cryptocurrency and
they can’t get their funds out.
What do we do? We could con-
tinue to monitor, we could actu-
ally look at the existing legisla-
ture that we have right now and
try to adjust or we could do a
brand new set of laws which will
require time and effort,” he said.
Bitcoin, Ethereum
dominate market
Karim Hamasni, director of
crypto asset innovation at RBC
Global Asset Management, said
bitcoin is a decentralised money
system with benefits.
Hamasni said, “A lot of differ-
ent blockchain competitors have
come out that we’re looking to in-
crease throughput, increase speed
and increase scalability to more
than what something like Ethere-
um can do. And so the race is on
to find out which standard is really
going to be the one that takes over.
Ethereum has a lot of advantages
in that most of the activities still
exist on it.
“Some of the best developers
in the world are still working on
Ethereum and there is a roadm-
ap to make it better and faster
and more scalable. However, that
roadmap is several years long.
In the meantime, there could be
some other crypto or some other
blockchain that comes in that has
a stronger value proposition and
that may start to take market share
away and see more adoption.
“Today, however, the cryp-
tocurrency space is really dom-
inated by both bitcoin and
Ethereum.”
He said bitcoin is still number
one and Ethereum is number two.
“There hasn’t really been a true
threat to the dominance of both
bitcoin and Ethereum. But substi-
tution risk is everywhere in this
space. It’s still such a new industry,
it’s such a new space that you nev-
er know what’s going to happen.
So it’s too early to tell.”

n Effort to lure new buyers

Tesla makes 3rd price cut

\\\\\ DETROIT
TESLA cut prices on its entire US
electric vehicle model line-up for
the third time this year in an ap-
parent effort to lure more buyers
amid rising interest rates.
The largest of the cuts that ap-
peared on Friday on Tesla’s web-
site were US$5,000 per vehicle
for the company’s slower-selling
more expensive models, the S
large sedan and the X big SUV.
The company lopped
US$2,000 off the price of the
Y small SUV, its most popular
model, and added a lower-cost
dual-motor version priced at
US$49,990. The 3 small sedan
saw a US$1,000 price cut.
The moves come as Tesla’s
first-quarter sales grew 36 per
cent but fell short of analysts’ ex-
pectations. The company said on
Sunday that it delivered a quar-
terly record of 422,875 vehicles
worldwide from January to March,
up from just over 310,000 a year
ago. But the increase fell short of
analyst estimates of 432,000 for
the quarter, according to FactSet.
A message was left on Friday
seeking comment from the Aus-
tin, Texas-based Tesla on why the
prices were cut.
Guidehouse Research e-Mo-
bility Analyst Sam Abuelsamid
said the cuts are a sign of slowing
demand for Tesla. The company,
he said, needs to sell more vehi-
cles to keep its factories running
at full capacity to protect high
profit margins. “Overhead of un-
derutilised plant eats up margin
extremely quickly,” he said.
Tesla has added a huge plant
near Austin to its US factory
footprint, in addition to its origi-
nal plant in Fremont, California.
The company also has built new
plants in Shanghai and near Ber-
lin.
Other analysts have speculat-
ed that Tesla was cutting prices to
take advantage of its profit mar-
gin per vehicle, which is larger
than most automakers. The move
could increase market share and
put pressure on start-ups and leg-
acy automakers now rolling out
EVs.
On Twitter on Friday, Tesla
CEO Elon Musk wrote that de-
mand is limited by affordability.
“There is plenty of demand for
our products, but if the price is
more money than people have,
that demand is irrelevant,” he
wrote.
The biggest of Friday’s cuts
came on Tesla’s aging S and X,
which saw sales drop 38 per cent
from January through March. The
Model S two-motor price dropped
5.6 per cent to US$84,990, while
the S tri-motor Plaid was trimmed
four per cent to US$104,990. The
company cut 5 per cent from the
X two-motor price, to US$94,990,
while the X Plaid saw a 4.6 per
cent drop to US$104,990.
Tesla added a dual-motor
Model Y for under US$50,000 and
cut prices on the Y Long range by
3.7 per cent to US$52,990 and
by 3.4 per cent on the Y Perfor-
mance, to US$56,990.
The Model 3 rear-wheel-drive
saw a 2.3 per cent price cut to
US$41,990, with the 3 Perfor-
mance version falling 1.9 per cent
to US$52,990.
The most recent cuts came on
Good Friday when the markets

Tesla cut prices in ear-

excuses, WASA
T
HE speculation by Minister Marvin Gonzales and the chair-
man of the Water and Sewerage Authority about employee
involvement in sabotaging the nation’s water supply is reck-
less in the absence of evidence. This is the kind of loose talk
that creates more problems than it solves, especially in an
environment of strained industrial relations as currently exists at
WASA. It also smacks of scapegoating by a public utility with a long
track record of poor service that current managers are so far unable
to solve despite repeated promises.
Water is a precious resource that is the very lifeblood of humans
and other species. In the context of an erratic and undependable
national water supply, people will do anything to secure it. Nobody
chooses to fork out hundreds and even thousands of dollars for
private truck-borne water when they are already paying WASA.
There is no doubt that WASA’s failure to provide this essential
service has long been exploited as a lucrative business opportuni-
ty by private operators transporting WASA water from areas that
have water to areas that don’t. However, as the architect of the
problem in the first place, WASA does not have the moral authority

Fewer guns, One can’t escape consequences

IS the allegation recently in narcissism, so that they can turning his back on them when

safer society
n LETTER OF THE DAY n n n n n
THE recently reported incident in
which a prison officer was relieved of
both his vehicle and firearm vividly
demonstrates the ineffective and
counterproductive nature of decisions
to increase the number of persons
who are legally entitled to bear arms.
Additionally, the death of a pre-
vious commissioner as well as other
incidents involving members of the
uniformed services support this claim.
Most societies have recognised
that this urge to “bear arms” is driven
by the profit motive, and least on
concerns for personal or societal
security.
Fundamentally, the base premise
argued is that ever since mankind
moved from being hunter-gather-
ers to settlements there have been
responses to that development.
Generally, the responses have been
encoded into rules, regulations and
what we call laws.
Societies recognise and agree on
these arrangements, and identify the
benefits that accrue to the majority.
Notwithstanding convention, even
though assigned and legally entitled
to bear arms, control and account-
ability remain supreme for those
bearing arms. A firearm is destructive
and lethal, and the bearer is not auto-
matically protected. On the contrary,
his personal risk is increased.
Should we understand this prin-
ciple, there is only one conclusion to
be drawn on this issue.
Majority interest is better served
when there are fewer firearms within
civil community, whether legally
issued or illegally available.
All available data clearly show that
the well-being and security of society
is infinitely greater where the availa-
bility of firearms is at a minimum.
There is no need for additional
studies, nor do we have to copy the
misguided practices adopted in some
other jurisdictions.
Both local and foreign statistics
show that societies are far safer when
the availability of firearms (legal and
illegal) is minimal.
It is this sole premise that ad-
vocates a reduction in issuance of
FULs, and a corresponding increased
concentration on the reduction of
illegally available firearms.
Samuel B Howard
the media of general medical
practitioners claiming to be
specialists a symptom of how
the old-time self-respect that we
once valued, to mean a sense
of remorse over wrongdoing,
is now something of an
anachronism?
It may be accepted that all
of us in our vulnerability as
humans, whether deliberately or
inadvertently, are susceptible to
compromising our self-respect
for self-gain in some form or
another, but one would have
expected professionals of such
ilk would have acquired not only
a sense of the moral implications
of their wrongdoing, but also
the possible consequences
to themselves and their
professional integrity and to
desist from such behaviour.
One can hardly expect the
average Joe or Beharry on
the street to engage in such a
balancing mode of thinking in
trying to satisfy his immediate
needs at the expense of his
intended wrongdoing. But
why such contradiction in the
behaviour of those who are
expected “to know better”?
Is it the art of connivance and
manipulation that a superior
intellect often spawns in some,
feeding their egos, indeed their
acquire a sense of power and
control over others, with the self-
interest in serving themselves
trumping the self-respect that
should show remorse over
wrongdoing?
This is a deeply complex
issue to which the best of us and
the worst of us, indeed all of us,
succumb at some point or the
other—but the evidence suggests
that at the upper echelons of
the society, this indifference to
self-respect and personal dignity,
to “what the people will say” or
what will history say, or what
your legacy will be, seems a
normative behavioural pattern
that hardly augurs well for the
leadership roles people of such
intellect are expected to play in
a developing society.
Like our young “specialists”
who, allegedly, tried to buck the
stages of specialisation without
a thought about the injury
that could be inflicted upon
the people who trusted their
expertise; or our politicians in
leadership positions who use
the people as “ladders” to gain
the utmost ground, but then
scorning the base degrees by
which they did ascend. (Brutus
pointing to Caesar’s use of the
“base degrees” as a ladder
to fulfil his political ambition,
that is accomplished: Julius
Caesar—Act 2, Sc 1, 21-26.)...
Or on the same continuum,
politicians who support such
leaders assuming leadership
roles as rewards for their
slavish loyalty, with hardly
the knowledge or will to serve
the people; or the law, being
the travesty it has become,
with justice bleeding as its
highest advocates betray an
unimaginable indifference to its
fulfilment...
And these “noble”
professions aside,
notwithstanding the politics as
the art of manipulation to serve
the self, there are the price
gougers who would “dig out
your eye” without batting an
eyelid; and as for the murderers
among us, we are to them as
“flies to wanton boys... they kill
us for their sport”. (Lear on the
heath having been abandoned
by his two daughters: King
Lear—Act 4, Sc 1, 37-38); and
then the unconscionable at its
worst, the perpetrators leaking
the SEA exam to serve their own
and themselves, with no thought
of the other hard-working
children so disadvantaged...
And I can write a journal with
this all-pervasive manifestation
of self-worth and dignity lost,
but the lack of space
forbids me.
It seems as if
paradise is truly lost
in this once-beautiful
land of ours, and the
evolving paradigm shift
from the old moral
compass to serving the
self with little remorse
or shame seems to have
come full circle.
But there is
hope yet. No matter
how cunning or
unconscionable you
can be in beating the
system, the issue of
having to account is
an undeniable human
principle you cannot
escape, for it is simply
not logical for you to
assume you can exist
only for yourself ad
infinitum; somewhere,
somehow, with your
hands behind your
back, you will have to
answer and face the
consequences!

‘Love The
Dark Days’
wins hearts
...Ira Mathur takes top prize
at 2023 Bocas Lit Fest
\\\\\ Verdel Bishop
verdel.bishop@trinidadexpress.com
LOVE The Dark Days by India-born
Trinidadian journalist-turned-au-
thor, Ira Mathur, has not only won
the 2023 Bocas Lit Fest, but the
memoir has also won the hearts of
those who have read it.
It is the story of a girl, Poppet, of
mixed middle-class Hindu and elite
Muslim parentage and looks at her
move from post-independent India
to her family’s migration to post-co-
lonial Trinidad.
The memoir, set in India, Eng-
land, Trinidad and a weekend in St
Lucia, is Mathur’s debut book. She
began writing the book as a way to
remember the language of India,
her childhood, and the people.
In a recent interview with the
Express, Mathur said it took 28
drafts before the book finally came
to fruition.
“I was forgetting. I felt the world
slipping away from me and also had
to understand how my identity had
evolved into this new world. It was
a way to find my way home to To-
bago and Trinidad, which is where I
belong as a new-world person.
“I’ve been thinking of the book
for years. The actual writing took
five years and over 28 drafts. It was
a task to cover continents and ages
and find a unity of theme. I think
Derek Walcott helped me look to
the present and this is when things
locked into place,” Mathur said.
Mathur said there were count-
less lessons learned in her journey
to completing the book. “It’s vital
for each of us to look at ourselves
without flinching and with honesty.
It allows us to see our own flaws
and break the colonial inheritance
of loss and damage. “Tolstoy is said
to have claimed that some flesh
must come off a writer’s hand to
be able to produce something uni-
versally raw and authentic. Naipaul
and Wordsworth wrote of being
meticulous to the craft and form of
writing, which we must do without
sentimentality in a state of reason.
“Writing demands it all—the
flesh and the heart, form and rea-
son. But in the writing, I found my
way back from the difficult and sad
spaces of my life back to my heart
and back to my beloved T&T,” Ma-
thur said.
She said she is humbled by the
outpouring of love and acceptance
for her memoir.
“This prize means that I have
been accepted into the Caribbean

space and I feel like I have Carib-
bean citizenship. The prize is for all
of us who love our island,” Mathur
said.
Love The Dark Days explores
post-colonial themes common to In-
dia and the West Indies and draws
on the years of being a practising
journalist in Trinidad, and on hun-
dreds of interviews countrywide. It
was chosen as a top 2022 memoir
by the UK Guardian before copping
the prestigious OCM Non-Fiction
Prize for English Literature.
“A compelling memoir”
The memoir has been hailed
by Earl Lovelace as “a compelling
memoir of the binding power of
love and the liberating beauty of
forgiveness”.
The UK Daily Telegraph hailed
the book as a “heady brew that
stays with you,” and Monique
Roffey, 2013 OCM Prize for Eng-
lish Literature, said, “No memoir
like this has torn itself out of the
Caribbean. A blaze of a book. Ma-
thur deftly yokes together parallel
worlds, colonial India and post-co-
lonial Trinidad.”
VS Naipaul’s cousin Vahni An-
thony Ezekiel Capildeo, Fellow
of the Royal Society of Literature,
pronounced it “stranger and more
compelling than any fantasy.”
Michael Portillo of Times Radio
called it “one of the most beautiful
books I have read for a long time.”
Love the Dark Days was
launched in Trinidad at the Derek
Walcott Theatre in Nalis, in Novem-
ber 2022, and in London at Water-
stones, and The Nehru Centre in
July 2022.
The book is available at Paper-
based at the Normandie and NEX-
GEN Mayaro and on Amazon UK
and US.

Ruling on
abortion pill
‘not America’
\\\\\ WASHINGTON
THE TOP health official in the Unit-
ed States said yesterday that a court
ruling threatening the availability
of a main drug used in medication
abortion was “not America” and he
did not rule out defying the judge’s
order if necessary.
“We want the courts to overturn
this reckless decision,” Xavier Bec-
erra, President Joe Biden’s health
secretary, told CNN’s “State of the
Union.” “We want, yes, that women
continue to have access to a drug
that’s proven itself safe. Millions of
women have used this drug around
the world.”
He stressed that for now, women
do have access to the abortion med-
ication mifepristone after a federal
judge in Texas, Donald Trump-ap-
pointee Matthew Kacsmaryk, put
his ruling from Friday on hold for a
week so federal officials could file a
challenge. The drug was approved in
2000 by the Food and Drug Admin-
istration, which is overseen by the
Health and Human Services Depart-
ment headed by Becerra.
“For America’s sake and for
women’s sake, we have to prevail in
this,” he said.
Biden has said his administra-
tion would fight the Texas ruling.
Kacsmaryk’s 67-page order gave the
government seven days to appeal.
“We intend to do everything to
make sure it’s available to them not
just in a week, but moving forward,
period, because mifepristone is one
of the safest and most effective med-
icines that we have seen over the
last 20 years to help women with
their health care, especially abortion
care,” Becerra said.
Asked whether he might recom-
mend that the FDA ignore a ban,
Becerra said, “Everything is on the
table.”
There is uncertainty about access
to the most commonly used method
of abortion in the United States fol-
lowing two separate and conflicting
court rulings in Texas and Washing-
ton over the legality of mifepristone.

Tensions rise
Jewish-Muslim conflict at Jerusalem shrine
\\\\\ JERUSALEM
ISRAELI warplanes and artillery
struck targets in Syria following rare
rocket fire from the north-eastern
neighbour, as Jewish-Muslim ten-
sions reached a peak yesterday at a
volatile Jerusalem shrine with simul-
taneous religious rituals.
Thousands of Jewish worship-
pers gathered at the city’s Western
Wall, the holiest place where Jews
can pray, for a mass priestly bene-
diction prayer service for the Passo-
ver holiday. At the Al-Aqsa Mosque
compound, a walled esplanade
above the Western Wall, hundreds
of Palestinians performed prayers as
part of observances during the Mus-
lim holy month of Ramadan.
Hundreds of Jews also visited the
Al-Aqsa compound under heavy
police guard yesterday, to whistles
and religious chants from Pales-
tinians protesting their presence.
By sundown, the observances had
passed without serious incident.
Such tours by religious and na-
tionalist Jews have increased in size
and frequency over the years, and
are viewed with suspicion by many
Palestinians who fear that Israel
plans one day to take over the site
or partition it. Israeli officials say
they have no intention of changing
long-standing arrangements that al-
low Jews to visit, but not pray in the
Muslim-administered site.
However, the country is now
governed by the most right-wing
government in its history, with ul-
tra-nationalists who seek changes
in the arrangements in senior posi-
tions.
Tensions have soared in the past
week at the flashpoint shrine after
an Israeli police raid on the mosque.
On several occasions, Palestinians
have barricaded themselves inside
the Al-Aqsa Mosque with stones
and firecrackers, demanding the
right to pray there overnight, some-
thing Israel has in the past only al-
lowed during the last ten days of the
Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
Police removed them by force, de-
taining hundreds and leaving doz-
ens injured.
The violence at the shrine trig-
gered rocket fire by Palestinian mili-
tants from the Gaza Strip and south-
ern Lebanon, starting Wednesday,
and Israeli airstrikes targeted both
areas.
In Lebanon, Hezbollah’s media
office announced that the militant

Gaza, in addition to general political
developments in the region, the
readiness of the resistance axis and
the cooperation of its parties,” the
statement said.

Pope prays for Ukrainians, Russians, refugees
\\\\\ VATICAN CITY
IN AN Easter message highlight-
ing hope, Pope Francis yesterday
invoked prayers for both the
Ukrainian and Russian people,
praised nations which welcome
refugees and called on Israelis
and Palestinians wracked by the
latest surge in deadly violence to
forge a “climate of trust.”
Francis, along with dozens of
prelates and tens of thousands of
faithful, celebrated Easter Mass
in a flower-adorned St Peter’s
Square, affirming the Christian
belief that Jesus rose from the
dead days after his crucifixion.
The 86-year-old pontiff
topped the celebration with a
traditional speech about troubled
places in the world. Encouraging
“trust among individuals, peoples
and nations,” Francis said East-
er’s joy “illumines the darkness
and gloom in which, all too often,
our world finds itself enveloped.”
The pope’s Easter message is
known by its Latin name, “Urbi

and Israel. No group has officially
claimed responsibility for the rocket
attacks, but Israel has accused Ha-
mas of being behind them.
Late on Saturday and early Sun-
day, militants in Syria fired rockets
in two salvoes toward Israel and the
Israeli-annexed Golan Heights. A
Damascus-based Palestinian group
loyal to the Syrian government
claimed responsibility for the first
round of rockets, saying it was retal-
iating for the Al-Aqsa raids.
In the first salvo, one rocket land-
ed in a field in the Golan Heights.
Fragments of another destroyed
missile fell into Jordanian territory
near the Syrian border, Jordan’s mil-
and the world.”
Since Russia invaded neigh-
bouring Ukraine in February
2022, Francis has repeatedly
called for the fighting to end and
sought prayers for the “martyred”
Ukrainian people.
Ukrainian diplomats have
complained that he hasn’t come
down hard enough in his state-
ments on Russia and particularly
Russian President Vladimir Putin
as the Vatican tries to avoid alien-
ating Moscow.
“Help the beloved Ukrainian
people on their journey towards
peace, and shed the light of East-
er upon the people of Russia,”
Francis implored God in his East-
er speech, which he delivered
while sitting in a chair on the
central balcony of St Peter’s Ba-
silica facing the square. “Comfort
the wounded and all those who
have lost loved ones because of
the war, and grant that prisoners
may return safe and sound to
their families.”
He urged the international
community to work to end the
17
itary reported. In the second round,
two of the rockets crossed the bor-
cepted and the second landing in an
open area, the Israeli military said.
Israel responded with artillery
fire into the area in Syria from where
the rockets were fired. Later, the
military said Israeli fighter jets at-
tacked Syrian army sites, including
a compound of Syria’s 4th Division
and radar and artillery posts.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip
Erdogan discussed the violence in
a telephone call with Israeli coun-
terpart Isaac Herzog late Saturday,
telling Herzog that Muslims could
not remain silent about the “prov-
ocations and threats” against the
Al-Aqsa Mosque, and said the hos-
tilities that have spread to Gaza and
Lebanon should not be allowed to
escalate further.
In addition to the cross-border
fighting, three people were killed
over the weekend in Palestinian
attacks in Israel and the occupied
West Bank.

Francis also prayed for those
who lost loved ones in an earth-
quake that struck Syria and Tur-
key two months ago, claiming
tens of thousands of lives.
With a renewal in deadly vio-
lence affecting both Israelis and
Palestinians in recent days, Fran-
cis called for a “resumption of di-
alogue, in a climate of trust and
reciprocal respect, between Israe-
lis and Palestinians, so that peace
may reign in the Holy City and in
the entire region”, a reference to
Jerusalem.
But Francis also noted pro-
gress on some fronts.
“Let us rejoice at the concrete
signs of hope that reach us from
so many countries, beginning
with those that offers assistance
and welcome to all fleeing war
and poverty,” he said, without
naming any particular nations.

“Silver and gold have I none. But such as I
have, I give unto you! In the name of Jesus
Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.” Acts 3:6
“THE book of Acts records that Peter
and John were going to the temple for
worship at the 9th hour. Whenever
you find time mentioned like this in
the Bible you have to remember that
the Jewish people would consider the
start of the day at 6 a.m. So, the 9th
hour is indicating 9 hours from 6 a.m.
which is 3 p.m. Also, historians tell
us that there were two daily sacrifices taking
place at the temple. A morning sacrifice and an
evening sacrifice. Now the early Jewish follow-
ers of Christ would participate in all the Jewish
worship and celebrations like all the other
Jews. Peter and John were no exception and
would have continued to be part of the temple
worship till the temple itself was destroyed in
70 AD putting an end to the temple sacrifices
which were no longer necessary because of
Christ’s own sacrifice. Now usually people
would gather to watch the ceremonies and pray
during the daily sacrifices and so there would
God’s love
and giving
be a big crowd at this time. Also, according to the
Rabbinic teachings there were three pillars of the
Jewish faith. The Torah or the first 5 books of the
Old Testament, worship and showing kindness.”
End of quoted text.
“Each of you should give what you have decided
in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under com-
pulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”
2 Corinthians 9:7 NIV
There is a video that went viral on Facebook
from/of this lady – from her accent, I think that
she is a Jamaican – telling of how she realised
how blessed she is after a man begged her for the
scraps of food that she considered garbage and
was about to throw away. She did not give him
the scraps, but instead she asked him to go with
her to a mall and proceeded to buy him some
food with what money she had. Many thou-
sands have viewed and shared that video, which
surprised her! Ah, but people are longing for good
news! I was shocked that they pay thousands for
a meal in their currency, and that made me realize
how blessed we are here in T & T!
Giving from the heart – in whatever way(s) we
can, is the best way to live my friend. So ‘whatever
you give, give to the best of your ability.’ Opportu-
nities abound for us to bless others the way(s) we
would like to be blessed!
How I hope and pray that we do not drop our
loving and giving standards. Our standards cannot
be divisive, but of uniting one another.
Giving is not as hard as some of us think. I
know for a fact that giving ‘such as you have’ is
something that all of us can do from the heart.
And that is what really counts. Giving is not to be
considered as only of the materialistic kind. And
while that kind of giving is equally important,
not having something material to give should not
hinder us from giving to our fellow humans.
I will admit to you that - at times, my personal
stuff, coupled with what is taking place nationally
and internationally, is allowed to get me numb,
and I lose my giving focus. Then I would have to
take the swift turn, and pull up my faith by re-
membering that God loves ME! And yes, HE loves
YOU! What else can we hold on to my friend?
What else?
Yes, I will admit that times are indeed hard/dif-
ficult. But our faith in God must stay strong!
Interestingly enough, I have wanted to share
on today’s topic for a few days. And then, as
divine (provisional) order would have it, someone
sent me a story captioned – ‘God loves you’. And
all I said was – ‘thank you FATHER!’
There are times that we can recall saying – ‘if
it had not been for the Lord on my side, I would
have perished!’ Or similar words, yes?
So, I highly recommend to you that you
personalise that fact every day by declaring ‘God
loves me!’ Doing so can be therapeutic and em-
powering. In times of darkness and despair, that’s
what we need to remember – that God loves us.
I remember how comforting when – as a child
– I would sing along to the song that was so com-
forting/reassuring to me, as it was being played on
the radio, and sung by the one and only powerful
Mahalia Jackson – “Yes, Jesus loves me, yes Jesus
loves me, for the bible tells me so.”
We have the perfect example to follow in Jesus
the Christ. And He told us that we can do even
greater things! So, let’s love and give!
T.Y.F.!
In everything give God thanks!
Be blessed!
Much love!

n Parkinson’s
A neurological movement disorder
\\\\ Kimberly Wallace
T
HE moment Sukdeo
(not his real name) was
diagnosed with Parkin-
son’s disease (PD), he
was determined to lead
an active life. But despite his best
efforts, he knows that he is up
against a formidable, progressive
disease that knows no cure.
As the disease progresses Suk-
deo’s symptoms have worsened;
his sense of smell has been lost,
his gait has become unsteady and
because of his tremors he can no
longer write his name but must
instead provide a thumbprint for
certain documents. The daily ef-
fort it takes for Sukdeo to do what
he loves — tending to his plants,
leaves him feeling drained and
even a bit depressed.
This Parkinson’s Day, internal
medicine/neurology specialist
Dr Nicholas Maraj sheds light
on this chronic and progressive
neurological disorder that affects
movement.
“Parkinson’s disease is caused
by the gradual loss of dopa-
mine-producing cells in a specific
region of the brain called the
substantia nigra,” said Maraj.
Dopamine is a transmitter that
plays a crucial role in regulating
movement and coordination, said
Maraj. But it also has several
other important functions. It is
involved in the brain reward
system and is released in response
to pleasurable experiences, it is
also involved in regulating mood
and emotions and is important for
attention and learning.
Because dopamine is a critical
neurotransmitter that is involved
in many different aspects of brain
function, the loss of dopamine
producing neurons in Parkinson’s
can have widespread effects on
these functions and contribute to
the diverse symptoms associated
with Parkinson’s.
The incidence of PD varies
across different populations and
age groups, but it is estimated
to affect about one to two per
cent of people over the age of 60
worldwide.
“It is slightly more common in
men than in women and the risk
of developing PD increases with
age. Even though this is the case,
in my clinic, I do see people in
their 30s with Parkinson’s,” said
the neurologist and consultant
physician at EWMSC, St Augus-
tine Private Hospital, Southern
Medical Clinic, St Clair Medical

Centre and Westshore Medical.
The symptoms of Parkinson’s
disease are typically divided into
two categories:
Motor symptoms: tremors
(usually present at rest), stiffness
or rigidity in the muscles, slow-
ness of movement and difficulty
with balance and coordination.
Non-motor symptoms: a
decrease in the ability to smell,
constipation, problems sleeping,
mood disorders such as depres-
sion and anxiety and cognitive
impairment (trouble with thinking
and memory).
Many patients report in-
creased stiffness in their muscles,
trouble turning in bed at night,
tremors, taking longer to put on
their clothes and come out of the
car.
What exactly causes
Parkinson’s?
Maraj explains that the ac-
cumulation of the protein called
alpha-synuclein in the brain is
thought to play a role. These

Must watch movies about autism
A
GREAT
strength
that is often
overlooked
when people
hear the diagnosis
of Autism Spectrum
Disorder (ASD), is that
some individuals devel-
op fixations or special
interests which could
potentially lead them
to develop extreme
knowledge around a
topic, setting them up
to perhaps become
an industry leader in A scene from the movie Love in the Spectrum.
that field. For instance,
Pokémon’s Satoshi Tajiri had a
fixation with video games and
bugs growing up and some think
his nickname of Dr Bug was a key
inspiration for the Professor Oak
character.
The actor and writer Dan
Aykroyd also proudly states that
being on the spectrum helped
him create the blockbuster hit
Ghostbusters. Dan attributes his
obsession with law enforcement
as well as his fixations with the
supernatural for sparking his idea
for the film. Dan also explains
that his success in writing the
series Blue Brothers, a story of two a fulfilling life. As the mom from the
recidivists, was propelled by his
extensive knowledge of crimino-
logical terms.
Temple Grandin, an autistic
individual specialising in ani-
mal husbandry, had a knack for
summing it all up, saying: “The
world needs different kinds of
minds to work together.” Which
is why I recommend you put all
the movies listed below on your
watch list. Each movie will explore and finding their love story. The best
how different everyone is and why part about this show is the variety of
there is a spectrum. From high
functioning asperger’s syndrome
to low functioning (if you choose
to use those terms), let us have
fun learning and bonding in this
epic movie marathon!
#1 – Temple Grandin
As one of the most prominent
and famous figures in the autism
community it’s a no-brainer that
the movie based on Temple Gran-
din’s life snags the top of the list
for best autism movies. The film
is based on the life of a young au-
tistic woman who overcomes the
limitations and barriers facing her
as a result of her diagnosis.
Based on a true story, this
heart-warming tale is truly one
of overcoming diversity, and is
a great pick-me-up film as you
watch as Temple learns to focus
on what she can do rather than on
what she can’t.
#2 – Jack of the Red Hearts
While a lot of movies around
autism focus on the experiences of
high functioning children on the
spectrum, Jack of the Red Hearts is a
great movie displaying what it’s like
for individuals who are low function-
ing and how it’s still possible to have
movie explains that while she may
not be a savant, “she has an extraor-
dinary personality”.
#3 — Love on the Spectrum US
While it’s not a movie, this
wholesome reality TV show follows a
series of individuals who are on the
spectrum as they work through the
ups and downs of their budding rela-
tionship, practising social interaction,
individuals’ stories and lives you get
to see, and how ultimately every-
one just wants to feel accepted and
connected.
#4 – Atypical
Another series I wanted to
include in this list is Atypical. A
great thing about this show is that
it hired individuals with autism for
roles both on and behind the cam-
era. Even if the characters weren’t
scripted as having a disability,
the Netflix producers noted that
they wanted to have an inclusive
environment and create something
that anyone who felt different
could relate to.

DUSTIN
THE day seems specially designed to shake up the assumption that
power is located somewhere outside ourselves. While you can’t control
everything about your experience, you still have way too many untried
options to worry for even one moment about options you don’t have.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

YOUR exceptional taste will play into the day’s events. You recognise
how it’s particular to you and don’t impose it on anyone else, which
makes you not only stylish but classy.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21)

WHILE there are those who say a lot but don’t act, you will provide a
contrast by acting without much to say about it. You’ll also inspire the
action of others with very little explanation or fanfare.
SAM & SILO

CANCER (June 22-July 22)

WHAT you imagine and what you can do won’t match up. It only means
you’ve a strong mind and, when it all shakes out, a new goal. You’re up
to this, and you’ll nail it. Don’t doubt that for a minute.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

WHETHER or not you have enough will depend solely on what metric you
use. If the metric is material, there will always be someone with more or
less than you have. The amounts in and of themselves aren’t necessarily
better or worse. It’s how they fit the recipe that matters.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

SOME leaders ignore the junior’s ideas and concerns, hoping they’ll
pass. They will. So will loyalty, contribution and engagement, though.
You’ll keep all of this in mind as you lead today.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)

BEETLE BAILEY

IS it too restrictive to label some emotions as bad and others as good?

Of course negative emotions hurt, but they also offer useful information
about what to change.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)

YOU’LL be cleaning, beautifying and fixing things. Most of this is easy
and inexpensive, except when it comes to relationships. Those are
harder to fix and come at a high emotional cost, too, which is why
you’re so careful not to break them in the first place.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

FINALLY, procrastination will work in your favor, or at least give you
different insights on the task at hand. Oscar Wilde confessed, “I never
put off until tomorrow what I can possibly put off until the day after
tomorrow.”

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

WHEN you find yourself in a defiant mood, there’s a reason for it. You
may not be fully aware of it, but you’re subconsciously resisting au-
thority. You want to know you have as much power over your life as you
CURTIS

possibly can.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

THE relationship that feels stuck will finally move forward when you say
what you mean. Conversations don’t need to be long and drawn out;
they just need to be specific. Try not to guess what the other person is
thinking. Ask.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

YOU’VE a unique collection, obsession or study, and there are a few
people out there who share it. You’ll keep finding them. The more you
add to your network the better your collection will be. The real prize is
always relationships.

10 things you think you know
about autism, but really don’t
AUTISM AWARENESS raises
awareness for autism and Asperger’s
syndrome during April. Autism is a
complex brain disorder that often
inhibits a person’s ability to commu-
nicate, respond to surroundings, and
form relationships with others.
The month-long observance takes
place during World Autism Aware-
ness Day (WAAD), celebrated each
year on April 2. WAAD was adopted
by the United Nations in 2007 to
shine a bright light on autism as a
growing global health crisis. WAAD
activities increase world knowledge
of autism and impart information
about the importance of early
diagnosis and early intervention.
Additionally, WAAD celebrates the
unique talents and skills of persons
with autism around the world.
According to WHO, about one in
270 people in the world has Autism
Spectrum Disorder (ASD). ASD is a
group of developmental disabilities
that causes challenges in many areas
of one’s life. Some of the profoundly
affected areas include social, com-
munication, and behaviour. Children
with ASD are usually nonverbal or
they have restricted or repetitive be-
haviours. ASD also affects people of
all racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic
backgrounds.
When it comes to the myths
surrounding autism and neurodiver-
sity, wrong information can lead to
isolation, cruelty and even the use of
harmful therapies.
Below the team from NEAS share
their top ten fake facts:
1. Autistic people
can’t show empathy
OK; so forget Sheldon Cooper
for a moment and replace autistic
with the word “humans”. Some hu-
mans can sometimes find expressing
empathy difficult. But others don’t.
And therein lies the crux of myth
fake fact number one.
It is true to say, however, that
one commonality that some autistic
people share is that they often find
reading social situations tricky and
can struggle to “put themselves in
someone else’s shoes”.
In a nutshell: some autistic
people express empathy, some
don’t. Just like all humans. But the
ones who do express it will often
experience a physical reaction to this
powerful emotion and for those who
appear not to it’s because the autistic
person is protecting themselves, but
it looks like they don’t care.
2. Autism can be cured
Well if autism was a disease –
maybe it could be cured. But as
it’s just the word used to describe
a normal variation in human brain
“wiring” it can neither be “cut out”
or treated away.
Let’s be clear; autism can some-
times sit alongside other challenges
and conditions, meaning life for an
autistic person, and their families,
can be a challenge. There is no cure.
3. Autistic people
can’t make eye contact
So let’s be frank, looking some-
one straight in the face can be a
challenge for anyone and for some
autistic people eye contact is not just
difficult, but downright painful.
The reason this one hits the myth
headlines so often is that it used to be a
hard and fast part of a doctor’s checklist
used to identify autism… until we realised
two things: one – it’s not true for everyone
(especially if you are diagnosed as an
adult and have learned how to cope with
what society expects) and two – every
autistic person is unique and there are as
many children, young people and adults
who can make eye contact as there are
that can’t.
It’s also true to say that most of us can
learn to behave in a way that helps us “get
by” in life.
4. Autistic children are naughty
Wait while we giggle at this one. The
reality: ALL children can be naughty. But
we think what this one is referring to is
the snap judgment offered when autistic
children may be struggling to deal with a
situation or some kind of change in their
environment.
While all autistic people process the
world around them in a way unique to
them, there are some commonalities. Sen-
sory overload is one. Often referred to as
a “meltdown”, if a child who experiences
sensory stimuli in a powerful way is taken
to an unusual or unfamiliar environment
this can be an assault on their senses.
To sum up – some autistic children
are naughty, because some children are
naughty. But often times what’s perceived
as naughty is a set of behaviours in
response to sensory changes.
5. Autistic people
can’t make friends
We get why you might think this, but
we’re happy to say this isn’t true either.
Again, as humans, some of us are so-
cial pinballs bouncing off each other and
enjoying the buzz… but others of us need
to work harder at making and sustaining
our relationships. A lot of autistic adults
count their online communities as their
friendship circles, and with the young peo-
ple we work with they are only too keen
to make friends, especially with other
autistic children who “get them”.
For those people who can’t communi-
cate verbally or who have other associated
challenges, friendships will be more
difficult – but by no means impossible.
6. All autistic people
are geniuses!
Move over Rain Man, stand aside
Turing, there’s room for us all here. No,
absolutely not, this simply isn’t true.
In years gone by autism was described
as a spectrum with the diagnoses of
Asperger’s being given to people at the
“higher end” of the spectrum. We hate
that language. And thankfully some of this
terminology is changing.
What it implies, however, is that some
people who are autistic are super intelli-
gent, and others are at the polar opposite
of this scale. That’s not helpful and doesn’t
actually give a very clear picture of what
life is like for that person, or who that
person really is.
7. Autism only
affects white people
Do you know what, we won’t even
give this one air time. Here’s who can
be autistic: anyone. Why? Because we
all have brains. And what else? Putting
people in boxes doesn’t help anyone.
Seriously, why are we still talking
about this one?!
8. Only boys can be autistic
Let’s start refuting this one off the bat.
It’s nonsense. But this is why it’s important
to talk about it: if girls don’t know, and
parents of girls don’t know, autism applies
to them too then life will be a series of
hurdles and no one will understand why
anyone is struggling.
It’s also important to note that the
way girls ‘mask’ things they struggle with
often aligns with social expectations of
what girls should be doing. So an autism
diagnosis may present itself earlier with
a boy, but we certainly hear from a lot of
women diagnosed later in life, who felt a
weight lifted when they now had a word
to describe who they really are.
9. Autistic people can’t tell lies
Maybe this would be better expressed
as autistic people are often honest. Very
honest. Where we think this stems from is
known communication challenges around
reading and understanding social cues,
language nuances and body language
making it tricky for some autistic people to
pick up when a gentler approach could be
the softer option
10. Autistic people are like
jigsaw puzzles
So you’ve heard about autism. You
google it, and up comes a multi-colour-
ed image of a jigsaw puzzle piece. It’s
beloved the world over – even by parents
of autistic children, but actually what is it
really saying?
We’ve banned jigsaw imagery and this
year we’ve even stepped away from being
happy with just autism awareness. Aware-
ness requires no action. Acceptance, on
the other hand, means all of us making a
shift in how we see and value each other.

Jabeur wins
Charleston
rematch
over Bencic
\\\\\ SOUTH CAROLINA

TUNISIA’S ONS Jabeur won the

championship rematch with Belinda
Bencic at the Charleston Open yes-
terday 7-6 (8/6), 6-4 for her third ca-
reer WTA title.
Jabeur, seeded second in the sea-
son’s first clay-court event, defeated
the fourth-seeded Bencic of Switzer-
land, who had won the event title
a year ago in three sets and started
strongly in seeking a second straight
trophy.
Jabeur turned things around while
trailing 5-3 in the opening set, a rally
that included a between-the-legs re-
turn and saving two set points to win
the tiebreak.
Jabeur broke Bencic’s serve three
times in the final set. When Bencic hit
her service return wide, Jabeur raised
her arms in triumph for her first
victory in the United States. “I wish
every tournament is like this, really
(mean that) from the heart,” Jabeur
said in accepting the trophy. “Really
amazing tournament and I hope I can
come back.”
When she does, it’ll be as defend-
ing champion.
Bencic advanced to the second
straight final about 30 minutes before
it began, finishing off a straight set
victory over No. 1 seed Jessica Pegula
by winning the final five points of a
tiebreaker.
Jabeur looked like the one who
might have needed more rest early
on. She lost her serve in the opening
game of the finals and struggled to
figure out Bencic’s serves.
It changed for good with her mi-
raculous return, down 5-4, on a ball
Bencic hit from the net right at her
opponent. Jabeur jumped with legs
apart and the racket behind and
down between them to get the ball
back over the net.

Bencic watched a Jabeur’s ball hit the

hit another sideline on set point that
Bencic thought was out, but the chair
umpire ruled it in as Bencic pleaded
her case to no avail.
Jabeur took a 4-1 lead in the sec-

tle since winning on grass in Berlin
last June, also defeating Bencic. The
defeat ended Bencic’s ten-match win
streak on Charleston’s green clay.

title push
...2-2 draw sees
EPL race tighten
A LATE Roberto Firmino header helped Liv-
erpool come from two goals behind to secure
a stunning 2-2 comeback draw with Premier
League leaders Arsenal at Anfield, yesterday.
Arsenal pulled six points clear of sec-
ond-placed Manchester City after first-half
goals by Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus
were cancelled out by Mohamed Salah and
Firmino. The result adds significance to Arse-
nal’s title-defining clash with City on April 26,
as Pep Guardiola’s side have a game in hand on
the league leaders.
Arsenal had not won at Anfield since Sep-
tember 2012—a game which manager Mikel
Arteta played in for the London side—but they
started strong and opened the scoring on eight
minutes through Martinelli.
Bukayo Saka initiated a blistering surge
forward and Jesus’ pass was deflected into the
path of Martinelli by Virgil van Dijk. The Bra-
zil winger, under pressure from the recovering
Liverpool back line, kept his composure and
prodded the ball under the advancing Alisson.
The Premier League leaders continued to
push and looked to have put their Anfield curse
firmly behind them as Jesus doubled their lead
on 28 minutes.
Martinelli burst beyond Trent Alexander-Ar-
nold to latch onto Granit Xhaka’s searching
ball. He found space to swing in a right-footed
cross perfectly on the head of Jesus, who direct-
ed his effort in beyond Alisson to strengthen
Arsenal’s title bid.
However, a clash between Xhaka and Alex-
ander-Arnold lifted the Liverpool crowd and
the hosts rallied to claw a goal back three min-
utes before half-time. Diogo Jota’s cross was
deflected by Jordan Henderson into the path of
Salah, who swept home and tipped the momen-
tum of the game in the favour of Jurgen Klopp’s
side.
Liverpool started the second half on the
front foot and were handed a golden chance to
level the score on 52 minutes when Rob Hold-
ing clumsily fouled Jota to earn the hosts a pen-
alty. Salah, however, fired wide. It was the sec-
ond successive penalty the Egypt forward has
missed, following his blazed effort at Bourne-
mouth in March.
Darwin Nunez wasted a great chance to
equalise ten minutes from time after he was set
through on goal by Salah, but his tame effort
was thwarted by Aaron Ramsdale. The “Reds”
continued to push and Firmino headed home
Alexander-Arnold’s floated cross to stall Arse-
nal’s Premier League title hopes.
Arteta’s side had to rely on last-ditch defend-
ing and goalkeeping heroics from Ramsdale to
avoid losing more ground on second-placed
City with Liverpool probing for a winning goal
deep into stoppage time.
The draw extended Liverpool’s winless run
to five matches, with the Merseyside club re-
maining eighth in the Premier League.

Narine, Joseph amongst the wickets as KKR pinch thriller

\\\\\ AHMEDABAD
SUNIL NARINE starred with ball
but then failed with the bat, along
with Andre Russell, but Kolkata
Knight Riders withstood Alzarri
Joseph’s excellence to chase down
a difficult target in a grand-stand
finish, yesterday.
Set 205 to win by Gujarat Ti-
tans, the left-handed Narine got
a one-ball “duck” while Russell
managed only one, and even after
Venkatesh Iyer’s top score of 83
and captain Nitish Rana’s 45, KKR
still entered the final over at the
Narendra Modi Stadium requiring
29 for victory.
A single off the first ball
brought Rinku Singh on strike,
and the 25-year-old then cleared
the ropes with the next five deliv-
eries from left-arm seamer Yash
Dayal, to earn KKR a sensational
three-wicket win and their second
of the new Indian Premier League
campaign.
Singh finished with an unbeat-
en 48 off 21 balls and Man-of-
the-Match honours, his four and
half-dozen sixes undoing the good
work done by leg-spinner Rashid
Khan (3-37) and fast bowler Jo-
seph (2-27).
Choosing to bat first, Titans
gathered an impressive 204 for
four from their 20 overs, Vijay
Shankar top-scoring with an un-
beaten 63 from 24 deliveries and
21-year-old left-hander Sai Sud-
harsan lashing 53 from 38 deliv-
eries.
Sudharsan struck three fours
and two sixes and put on 67 for
the second wicket with Shubman
Gill (39), before adding a further
35 for the fourth wicket with
Shankar, who then combined with
David Miller (two not out) in an
unbroken fifth wicket partnership
of 51. Shankar smacked four fours
and five sixes.
Off-spinner Narine, who last
played for West Indies four years
ago, was outstanding with three
for 33 from his four overs. In re-
ply, KKR were stumbling on 28 for
two in the fourth over before Ven-
katesh and Nitish came together
to stabilise the run chase in a 100-
run, third wicket partnership.
Venkatesh struck eight fours
and five sixes while Nitish belted
four fours and three sixes, both
eventually succumbing to the
stellar Joseph. Rashid Khan then
wrecked the middle order to send
four wickets tumbling for just
one run before Rinku rallied the
chase.

Stevenson defeats Yoshino in dominant fashion

\\\\\ NEW JERSEY
SHAKUR STEVENSON was
relentless. Punch after punch
thrown, punch after punch land-
ed—the audible pop clear to all in
the Prudential Center what was
going on.
Stevenson (20-0, 10 KOs) was
dominant Saturday night in his
hometown, and midway through
the sixth round, it was over. The
referee stopped the fight. Ste-
venson picked up win No. 20 of
his career and his first as a light-
weight, defeating Shuichiro Yoshi-
no in the sixth round.
It was potentially the best Ste-
venson—the 25-year-old former
WBO featherweight and WBO and
WBC junior lightweight champion
of the world—has looked.
“I think I’ve even been sharp-
er,” Stevenson said. “But I was
very focused, very focused on
what I was supposed to do and
sticking with what the game plan
was.” Stevenson also said he
would like to face Devin Haney
next.
Haney and Vasiliy Lomachen-
ko are scheduled to fight on May
20 for the undisputed lightweight
title. Stevenson said he believes
Haney will win that fight—and
he’ll then end up taking Haney on.
“Tell him come on,” Steven-
son said. “If that’s what he want
to do, I don’t know why he would
watch that and say that. I’ve nev-
er really even seen Devin Haney
really even hurt anybody before.
He ain’t really got the punching
power.
“So if he watched that, he
could tell that I could punch. I
don’t know what would make him
say, ‘Let’s do it.’ Maybe he’s just
a competitor. Maybe I just got to
respect it.”

Super Bird to taste ‘Champagne’

\\\\\ Shammi Kowlessar
SUPER BIRD will attempt to be-
come only the third horse to win
the Champagne Stakes for a sec-
ond successive time when horse
racing resumes after a 44-day ab-
sence at Santa Rosa Park, Arima,
today.
In addition to the open Grade
Three contest, the seven-race
Easter Monday holiday card will
contain the Chief Commander
Stakes, also over 1,600 metres on
turf.
One-kilo claimer Andrew Poon
is back to partner Super Bird af-
ter not being aboard since guiding
him to victory at odds of 9/2 eight
days shy of a year ago.
The Hugh Leong Poi-bred and
owned five-year-old has not scored
since then, but he has finished sec-
ond in three of the eight outings,
including when he failed to catch
General JN by a short head, over
1,100 metres in the Sian’s Gold
Sprint last time out in January.
Seven will be in opposition in
today’s penultimate event, includ-
ing the “General”—the runner-up
in 2021—and Cool Cat, who
placed second last year, after both
had won the Sian’s Gold.
The latter was the best off at
the weights among the three at
the entry stage with 51 kilos, but
he could end up the worst as his
booked rider Nobel Abrego could
take up at least five kilos over-
weight.
Super Bird was again handed
six kilos less that the top-weighted
(57 kilos) General JN after failing
to catch him in the Sian’s Gold,
but he should have a much better
chance of turning the tables over
the longer trip.
Stroke Of Luck and Soca Har-
mony, winners of the last two edi-
tions of the Trinidad Derby Stakes,
as well Crown Prince and Just Ex-
hale, winner and runner-up, re-
spectively, in last year’s Gold Cup,
are also involved in the $47,000
contest.
Stroke Of Luck has performed
very creditably on turf, but last
year’s Independence Cup winner
will have questions to answer after
extremely disappointing perfor-
mances in his last two starts.
Crown Prince, who has won
half of his ten career outings,
has never raced on grass, but he
should have no problems adapting
to the surface as he is a full broth-
er of his fellow chestnut.
Just Exhale and Soca Harmony
are both in fine form and if the lat-
ter acts on the surface and should
their riders prove to be as capable
as their mounts are, the pair could
be fighting it out for the lion’s
share of the spoils with the light
impost of around 45 kilos apiece.
Last year’s Midsummer Classic
and Derby winner Soca Harmony
will be attempting to complete a
hat-trick of wins, but she has nev-
er even raced on turf and will have
Kiran Razack in the irons.
Just Exhale, the 2021 Guineas
winner and Derby runner-up, was
a respectable fourth in a stakes on
grass last year, but his pilot is the
inexperienced Darcelle Rodrigo,
who recently returned from a very
long absence and has ridden only
five winners in a brief career which
began eight years ago.
The Chief Commander Stakes is
billed to take place 40 minutes be-
fore, at 3.45 p.m. Eight locally-bred
three-year-olds are expected to
face the starter in the Grade Three
contest for the $23,000 winners’
cheque, but five of them, including
last year’s St James/St Ann’s Stakes
heroine Firecracker and Royal Col-
ours Classic winner In The Head-
lines, are novices on grass.
Princess Royal, a full sister of
Stroke Of Luck and Crown Prince,
is the only horse in the $39,000
contest to have raced around two
turns before.
Post time for the third round of
the Arima Race Club’s 2023 Sea-
son is 1 p.m.

TOP TTO youth swimmer
Nikoli Blackman won two gold
and two silver medals on Sat-
urday as Trinidad and Tobago
continued their strong showing
at the Carifta Aquatic Champi-
onships, currently taking place
in Curacao.
Blackman started the third
day of the championships with
a silver medal in the Boys 15-
17 200-metre IM (individual
medley) and followed up with
silver in the 50-metre breast-
stroke.
He ended the day on top,
bagging gold in the 100m
freestyle and in the 800-me-
tre freestyle relay. In the final
event on the day, Blackman
swam the lead-off leg of the
relay while Giovani Rivas went
second, then Zachary Antho-
ny with Zarek Wilson on an-
chor. The T&T quartet clocked
7:58.66 to finish ahead of the
Bahamas (8:03.32) and the

\\\\\ KOWLOON
RETIRED West Indies women’s
all-rounder Deandra Dottin struck
a half-century and grabbed two
wickets in a Player-of-the-Match
performance, as she propelled Bar-
my Army to a 17-run victory over
Hayley Matthews’ Warriors in the
Fairbreak Invitational, yesterday.
Sent in at the Kowloon Cricket
Club, Barmy Army stormed to 163
for six from their 20 overs, Dottin
top-scoring with 69 from 48 balls
and Rumana Ahmed getting 37
from 28 balls.
In reply, Warriors were dis-
missed for 146 off 20 overs with
Dottin snatching two for nine from
three overs of medium pace and
24-year-old American left-arm
pacer Tara Norris claiming two for
39. Barmy Army lie second on 10
points while Warriors remained top
Cayman Islands (50.99) and
Marvin Johnson of the Baha-
mas, who clocked 51.16 sec-
ond.
In the 50-metre breast-
stroke, Blackman just missed
out on the top spot with a time
of 29.88 seconds to come in
just behind Braynsly Dirksz of
Antigua Barbuda, who touched
the wall in 29.02 seconds.
Blackman clocked 2:10.36 in
the 200-metre IM to finish be-
hind Nigel Forbes of the Baha-
mas who had a time of 2:06.72.
Also claiming gold on Sat-
urday was the Boys 13-14
800-metre relay squad of Liam
Roberts, Darren Belfon, Isaiah
Alexander and Liam Carring-
ton. T&T clocked 8:34.53, well
ahead of second-placed Baha-
mas (8:41.02).
In the individual events,
Zachary Anthony secured
bronze in the Boys 15-17
200-metre butterfly in a time
of 2:05.86 while Zarek Wilson
finished sixth in the race in a
time of 2:15.26.
Meanwhile, Zoe Anthony
placed fourth in the corre-
of the six-team table on 15 points,
after suffering their first defeat.
Barmy Army were struggling
on 26 for two at the end of the
fifth over before Dottin pulled
them out of trouble, punching
three fours and seven sixes to
inspire a 99-run, third wicket
stand with Rumana who count-
ed half-dozen fours in a 28-ball
knock.
Dottin was eventually third out
in the 16th over, triggering a slide
which saw four wickets go down
for 37 runs, Scottish seamer Kath-
ryn Bryce finishing with two for 29.
Dottin’s former West Indies
teammate, fast bowler Shamilia
Connell, produced a superb four-
over spell which yielded only eight
runs and a single wicket, while the
current West Indies captain Mat-
thews sent down four overs of off-
spin which cost 41 runs and served

Christian Rivas also climbed
the podium in the Boys 13-14

the bronze medal in a time of
2:21.04 while Liam Carrington
copped a couple of two silver
medals-- first in the Boys 13-
14 100-metre freestyle (54.54)
then in the 13-14 200-metre
IM (2:13.15).
Liam Roberts captured sil-
ver in the Boys 13-14 50-metre
breaststroke while Anpherne
Bernard secured the bronze.
And Tyler Marchan clinched
bronze in the Girls 11-12
200-metre IM.
After Saturday’s perfor-
mance, T&T were third on the
medal table with 41 (16 gold,
12 silver and 13 bronze). The
Cayman Islands are second,
also with a total for 41 (20

Chasing a tricky target, Warri-
ors were quickly in a slump at 22
for two in the third over before
Matthews lashed three sixes in an
18-ball 28, as she put on 29 for the
third wicket with Yasmeen Khan
(21). Matthews perished in the sev-
enth over, lbw to Dottin, leading
to a collapse which saw Warriors
labouring at 79 for six in the 11th
over.
Bryce intervened, slamming 45
from 26 balls with four fours and
two sixes, and inspiring a 38-run,
seventh wicket partnership with
captain Sindhu Sriharsha (14) and
a 22-run eighth wicket stand with
Mariana Martinez (seven not out).
However, the last three wickets
tumbled for seven runs with Dottin
picking up a second scalp, that of
her former teammate Connell for
nought.
