Jamaican British people

The need for the Jamaican and wider United Kingdom (UK) Caribbean community to become more assertive and nurture special relationships between Britain and the Caribbean, was a recurring theme during the first Caribbean Question Time event, held in London on February 24.2010

The Question Time Panel, which included representatives from the three major British political parties, was moderated by Bishop Dr. Joe Aldred and featured business woman, Ms. Joy Nichol and Jamaican born Reverend Rose Hudson Wilkins.

Both Reverend Hudson Wilkins and Ms. Nichols emphasised the need for the Caribbean community take a more serious interest in politics and to understand the power they have as members of the British electorate.

They also stressed that the community must become more organised and united to develop serious political influence and the economic power to ensure that their interests and needs are realistically tackled.

On the issue of the 'special relationship', between Britain and the Caribbean there was the strong view that the Caribbean was not high on the agenda and that there was need to rethink the issue of the 'special relationship' which many felt needed to be on a basis of mutual respect .

The Stew Maker

The job of Santiago Meza López was to dispose bodies of the enemies of a notorious drug baron, dissolving them in tubs of acid. Over several years he claims to have “disappeared” 300 enemies of Teodoro García Semental, a former henchman for one of the largest cartels in Mexico and now in a bloody struggle for supremacy over the trade. 

Things are bad in Jamaica, but certainly not as bad as this. Some critics would like you to believe that Jamaica is the vilest society on the planet. Mankind's existence has been rocked with unimaginable violence and cruelty since there intelligence started evolving rapidly. The need to dominate another being by force is a remant of our basic animal instinct.

Although violence has its roots in Africa and for centuries Africa,  then the Middle East, then Southern Europe, then Asia, before taking a sharp turn to the Americas then back to Africa.

Artificial DNA

Synthetic DNA

Scientists in the US have succeeded in developing the first synthetic living cell. The researchers constructed a bacterium's "genetic software" and transplanted it into a host cell. The resulting microbe then looked and behaved like the species "dictated" by the synthetic DNA. The advance, published in Science, has been hailed as a scientific landmark, but critics say there are dangers posed by synthetic organisms.

The researchers hope eventually to design bacterial cells that will produce medicines and fuels and even absorb greenhouse gases. The team was led by Dr Craig Venter of the J Craig Venter Institute (JCVI) in Maryland and California.
