The Jamaican people must be involved in the Constitutional Reform process, says civil society

Petchary's Blog

I recently shared the news that Jamaica’s Constitutional Reform Committee (CRC) is up and running. Since then, I confess that I have taken my eye off the ball and have not been following subsequent discussions and debates in the local media very closely.

However, the general sense I get is that there is genuine concern that the Jamaican people may somehow be left out of – or at least, remain uninformed about – the process. The last thing that is needed is a “fait accompli.” I was quite surprised when former Attorney General and Minister of Legal and Constitutional Affairs Marlene Malahoo Forte spoke about getting draft legislation to Parliament “by May” (what, in a week or two?) Perhaps the timeline has since been revised.

I get the sense that there is too much of a rush; after decades of talking about it, the political administration seems to be…

Violência Doméstica

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

Quanto mais a mulher avança em relação a seus direitos, mais se observa também que, há uma resistência maior do homem em aceitá-los. Por que faço essa afirmação? Porque percebemos como os índices em relação a violência cresce. Claro, embora a Lei Maria da Penha seja um ganho significativo a todas nós mulheres, a gente sabe que muitas ainda mantém o silêncio. Já aquelas que denunciam, sentem o peso de suas ações. Mas, é preciso denunciar, porque quebrando o silêncio, se coopera para um número menor de Feminicidio no país, por exemplo. Apesar de muitas campanhas e todo um trabalho em conjunto, feito no sentido de esclarecer e combater a violência doméstica e familiar, infelizmente, tem-se números bastantes expressivos nesse sentido.

En 2022, cuando recibí la invitación de Fundación Vinatea Editorial, con sede en Valencia, España, para escribir un relato literario basado en una historia periodística, acepté la propuesta y me comprometí a dar lo mejor de mí con la idea de contribuir a la publicación de un libro con calidad, sentido, mensaje y profesionalismo.

Como escritor y periodista, sé que publicar un texto pequeño o una obra extensa, implica dedicación, entrega, disciplina, calidad, esfuerzo y responsabilidad. Uno tiene que dar lo mejor de sí, lo mismo si se trata de colocar un ladrillo que de construir una finca.

Elegí uno de los temas que Fundación Vinatea Editorial ofreció a los participantes y cumplí puntualmente con la entrega de mi artículo, evidentemente con el deseo de que la extensión autorizada hubiera sido mayor. Siempre quiero más espacio para cultivar letras…

Use of antibiotics in farming ‘endangering human immune system’ | Antibiotics | The Guardian

“This is potentially much more dangerous than resistance to antibiotics,” said Prof Craig MacLean, who led the research at the University of Oxford. “It highlights the danger of indiscriminate use of antimicrobials in agriculture. We’ve accidentally ended up compromising our own immune system to get fatter chickens.”

The findings could also have significant implications for the development of new antibiotic medicines in the same class as colistin, known as antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), which the scientists suggest could pose a particular risk of compromising innate immunity.
