A 79-year-old pen­sion­er was as­sault­ed and robbed dur­ing a home in­va­sion at Pep­per Vil­lage, Gran Cou­va, on Tues­day evening.

Econ­o­mist Mar­la Dukha­ran says the pro­posed large-scale in­vest­ments in da­ta cen­tres and AI in­fra­struc­ture are like­ly to bring for­eign di­rect in­vest­ment and job cre­ation to T&T as well as po­si­tion the coun­try as a dig­i­tal hub. How­ev­er, she cau­tioned that pol­i­cy­mak­ers must care­ful­ly ex­am­ine the long-term costs and ben­e­fits.

“Oh what a tan­gled web we weave, when first we prac­tice to de­ceive..” (from the 1808 po­em “Marmion: A tale of Flod­den Field” by Sir Wal­ter Scott)

He spends his days weigh­ing life-al­ter­ing ver­dicts in a de­mand­ing pro­fes­sion, but High Court judge Kevin Ram­cha­ran’s tough­est op­po­nent is usu­al­ly the clock.

There is lit­tle doubt that chick­en re­mains this coun­try's favourite form of pro­tein and that the ap­peal of poul­try cuts across the coun­try's class, race, re­li­gious, gen­der and age dif­fer­ences.
