  • MW Bocasjudge'stalk Link
    1 Bocas Judge’s talk To be given May 4 2019 Marina Warner April 27 2019 The Bocas de Dragon the Mouths of the Dragon, which give this marvellous festival its name evoke for me the primary material of stories, songs, poems in the imagination of things which isn’t available to our physical senses – the beings and creatures – like mermaids, like dragons – which every culture has created and questioned and enjoyed – thrilled to and wondered at. But the word Bocas also calls to our minds the organ through which all the things made by human voices rise from the inner landscapes of our being - by which we survive, breathe, eat, and kiss. Boca in Latin would be os, which also means bone- as Derek Walcott remembers and plays on as he anatomises the word O-mer-os in his poem of that name. Perhaps the double meaning crystallises how, in so many myths and tales, musical instruments - flutes and pipes and lyres - originate from a bone, pierced or strung to play. Nola Hopkinson in the story she read for the Daughters of Africa launch imagined casting a spell with a pipe made from the bone of a black cat. When a bone-mouth begins to give voice – it often tells a story of where it came from and whose body it once belonged to: in a Scottish ballad, to a sister murdered by a sister, her rival for a boy. Bone-mouths speak of knowledge and experience, suffering and love, as do all the writers taking part in this festival and on this splendid short list.

  • Microtityus Rickyi (Dwarf Scorpion)
    UWI The Online Guide to the Animals of Trinidad and Tobago Diversity Microtityus rickyi (Dwarf Scorpion) Order: Scorpiones (Scorpions) Class: Arachnida (Spiders, Scorpions and Mites) Phylum: Arthropoda (Arthropods) Fig. 1. Dwarf scorpion, Microtityus rickyi. [www.ntnu.no/ub/scorpion-files/m_rickyi2.jpg, downloaded 23 October 2016] TRAITS. Microtityus rickyi are the smallest scorpions of the Western Hemisphere with an average size of 19mm. A light yellow pigmentation with black to light brown spots is found throughout the carapace (anterior plate that covers the head and thorax) and opisthosoma (segmented mid-body and tail). Its stinger is dark brown. The almost triangular carapace with a distinctly notched margin is characteristic of Microtiyus rickyi (Fig. 1). Sexual dimorphism is exhibited in regards to their size; the largest females are 18.6mm and males 16.6mm (Kjellesvig- Waering, 1966) DISTRIBUTION. Microtityus rickyi are endemic to Trinidad and Tobago, found nowhere else, and rather rare, comprising less than 1% of the scorpion population sampled (Kjellesvig- UWI The Online Guide to the Animals of Trinidad and Tobago Diversity Waering, 1966). Microtityus rickyi can be found at Lady Chancellor Hill, Mt. St. Benedict, Chacachacare Island, Gaspar Grande Island (Fig. 2), and Speyside Tobago (Prendini, 2001). HABITAT AND ACTIVITY. Microtityus rickyi are predominantly found hanging motionless on the underside of rocks within forests, on exposed soil banks or leaf litter though some have been found near the coast and on hills at heights of 200m. They can also be considered as semi- arboreal as some have been found a few metres up tree trunks (Prendini, 2001). FOOD AND FEEDING.

It is in this context that this report examines the feasibility of marine power generation at the 14 km wide Serpent’s Mouth in Trinidad. It is part of the narrow Columbus Channel which lies between Trinidad and Venezuela. At this location, depth varies between 30 - 48 m and a marine current of approximately 1.5 m/s suggests the possibility of generating power through submerged turbines.The conditions are similar to those at Strangford Lough in the Irish Sea, where the world’s first marine current turbine was installed in 2008 for generating 2 MW of power. After taking into account the technical, environmental, and economic factors, this paper concludes it is feasible to use The Serpent’s Mouth location for Power Generation. Keywords: Columbus Channel, Marine Current Turbines (MCTs), Power Generation, Marine Renewable Energy (MRE) 1.

  • August 2020 August: a Few Puzzles and Welcoming Back an Old Friend
    [email protected] Tel: (868) 667-4655 August 2020 August: A few puzzles and welcoming back an old friend Martyn Kene ck A very active wet season combined with an exponential increase in the number of COVID19 cases in the country quite naturally put a dampener on birding activity during the month. Nonetheless, we did meet up again with an old friend who, without doubt, was the star bird of the month. For the last four years, a Double-striped Thick-knee has spent a week or so day-roosting on the Queen’s Park Savannah, Port of Spain. This is obviously the same individual found on 29th August in exactly the same corner of the park as in previous years. We are talking about a rare bird for Trinidad, and more often than not, this is the only sighting during the year of this wanderer from mainland South America. Thick-knees are shy and wary by nature and why it chooses such a public and sometimes noisy place to sleep during the day no-one knows. Indeed, in 2019, it even survived the massive reworks display commemorating our Independence Day celebrations. Also, as predicted last month, a Dark-billed Cuckoo was reported from trees bordering the Caroni Rice Project, on the 29th. Again, quite a rarity, and it may be the only one to be found this year. Double-striped Thick-Knee by Brian D’abreau Being two islands so close to a huge land mass and being on major migration yways, the status and distribution of several species can become confusing.

  • Venezuela's Refugee Crisis
    VENEZUELA’S REFUGEE CRISIS Trinidad &TobagoTrinidad &Tobago January 2020 COUNTRY REPORT Trinidad & Tobago, a country bordering the epicenter of the Venezuela refugee crisis continues to struggle with its coordination efforts due to the absence of a domestic legislation for refugees and asylum seekers. A field team was deployed on January 2019 to assess and evaluate the ongoing response activities taken at country level. Author: Cristina Valencia Country Report: Trinidad & Tobago 1 Executive Summary As part of the William R. Rhodes Global Advisors (WRRGA) commitment in the response to the ongoing Venezuelan Refugee Crisis, a mission team was sent on January 19, 2020 to assess and support the current activities that are being implemented (by both local and international organizations) to address the existing Venezuelan refugee needs in Trinidad & Tobago. In early 2015, the Americas region began to experience a surge in migration flows due in large part to the rise of people emigrating from Venezuela in response to the country’s faltering economy. Only seven nautical miles from the coast of Venezuela, Trinidad and Tobago is currently one of the largest migrant receiving countries in the Caribbean. Although reported estimates of Venezuelan refugees residing in the nation vary between 15,000 and 40,000, the island has not had such numbers of inward migration in its modern history, therefore legal frameworks and institutional capacity to cope with the situation are lacking. On 26 July, the Government of Trinidad and Tobago began issuing registration cards to Venezuelans who had registered in the two-week exercise that was conducted from 30 May to 14 June 2019 in which approximately 16,523 were registered.
