While some welcome the $5000 note with open arms, others seem to be quite skeptical when they consider its possible implications on the economy. The new note comes into circulation on December 9.Carl GreenidgeMany are of the belief that the new note is too large and that it is in response to inflation or probably will lead to inflation. But Chartered Accountant and lawyer, Christopher Ram,Cheap Jerseys USA, said that the denomination is simply too high. “We need a whole rearrangement of currency,NBA Jerseys China, especially of the smaller notes.”“I would not have gone for such a high note. Instead, I would have gone for a $2000 note. In a society where you are trying to move away from cash, this sends the wrong signal …I fail to see the rationale and the economic logic of the $5000 note.”On the flipside to Ram’s comments, Financial Analyst, Ramon Gaskin,Cheap Jerseys USA, however, is in full support of the new note. He said, “It is a small amount which in essence translates to US$25 but we also need a $2000 note. I would also call for a $10,000 note. Guyana is culturally, a cash-oriented economy and I think the introduction of those other notes would be helpful.”A Partnership for National Unity’s (APNU) Shadow Minister on Public Works and Telecommunications, Joseph Harmon, believes that there is both good and bad in introducing the note.“The new note simply shows that we have too much of a heavy reliance on cash and not becoming as sophisticated as other countries. Large sums of cash just continue to make us easier targets for robberies. We should also consider having more banking facilities in the interior region. The bigger notes make it easier to carry around but we need to seriously examine ways in which our system can become more plastic oriented and more facilities constructed to facilitate this.”Carl Greenidge,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, APNU’s financial point man firmly asserts that the new note will only serve to be beneficial for the national economy. There is no reason for one to worry about the circulation of the new note, he added.Clinton Urling, President of the Georgetown Chamber of Commerce“While it is expected of the Opposition to be critical of what the Government is doing and demand justification for its actions, this time around with regard to the new note, the general public has nothing to worry about. The purpose of the higher denomination is to make transactions easier. It cannot be convenient to have to purchase something that requires a large volume of money.”As it relates to the issue of counterfeiting, the Member of Parliament said that it would be very difficult to do so as the note has seven security features that are internationally recognized and are there to protect its integrity. This contention was also supported by the Deputy Governor of the Bank of Guyana, Dr. Gobind Ganga.InflationInflation is the process by which the value of goods and services rise over time. If the value is rising overtime, then the currency in which goods and services are traded, will lose their purchasing power and a motor car which costs $100, will cost $120 over time.Greenidge said, “As new notes come, old ones will be retired, so a set of old thousand dollar bills will be removed from circulation and the $5000 note will be added to the system.”“I wish to reiterate that the new note is not in response to inflation, it is in response to something that has been called for a long time now and that is; you have to carry around too much money to pay for a normal transaction and I would call for an even bigger note.”The Georgetown Chamber of Commerce (GCCI) has also expressed its support for the new denomination. However, the Chamber expect that prices on the local market would increase because of the new note since the Central Bank Governor, Mr. Lawrence Williams at a seminar in 2012 guaranteed that the new note is only intended to shift the heavy reliance from the $1000 to the $5000 note.Mr. Williams had also informed from an historical context that inflation decreased when larger notes were introduced into the economy.The Governor added that significant savings will be made when the new note goes into circulation.He said that it costs the central bank between $600 million and $700 million to print current notes. The new $5,000 would reduce the volume of notes being printed.The $5000 noteHowever, the only disadvantage the new note seemingly brings with it is the use of the $5000 notes to carry out small transactions that would require vendors offering goods to provide many smaller notes as “change.”As it relates to the electronic purse,Cheap Wholesale Jerseys, Greenidge said that the reason why large businesses like to deal with

–?? ?facing skills shortage, raid affectedOne- third of the field staffers at the state-owned Guyana Power and Light Inc. (GPL) are being sent home annually because of corrupt activities, as the entity continues to battle high technical line losses and theft.Testifying during a public session last week on GPL’s performance in 2012 and for the first half of this year, officials also disclosed that a number of factors, including high levels of defective meters and theft, helped contribute to targets not being met.By the end of June,China Jerseys, the utility company was supposed to ensure its total losses,Wholesale Jerseys China, from theft and technical issues, did not move beyond 29.7%. Instead, it went up to 32.1%.GPL has expressed worry over the fact that it is being forced to fire up 30 per cent of its field staff annually for corruption.Under regulations,Wholesale Jerseys For Sale, GPL has to periodically report its performances and steps it has taken to raise its standards, particularly as it relates to customers. Last year, GPL failed to bring down its losses from the 31.5% in 2011. That went up to 31.7%.Because of the state of GPL’s transmission lines and some aging equipment, it will be difficult for losses to come down in any significant way, unless monies are plugged in new technologies to prevent theft and infrastructure to reduce leaks, Chief Executive Officer, Bharat Dindyal said during the public session at Duke Lodge, Kingston.This is especially so as more electricity is being plunged into a distribution system that has not been upgraded in any significant way for decades now.Also there were representatives of the regulator, Public Utilities Commission.Adding more engines and not addressing the leaking systems will not improve the situation. Already, the company has started to change out its transmission lines on the coast under a US$38M Chinese-funded programme to also build seven sub-stations.Sloth in CourtIt has been no secret also that commercial and industrial customers continued to rack up millions of dollars of losses for GPL because of theft. Several large companies have been found with ingenious systems of bypassing its meters by taking power directly from the lines. To address these, GPL has moved to reroute concealed lines and installing tamper-proof Itron meters at businesses. For residential customers, those found stealing have had prepaid meters installed on top of the power poles as a deterrent.The company is also embarking what it calls the medium voltage distribution system which will see new transformers being installed in strategic areas with mechanisms in place to prevent illegal connections to businesses.For the first half of the year, GPL installed 271 Itron meters to businesses with just over 2,000 meters being replaced for being defective. Almost 6,700 prepaid meters were installed with 3,921 illegal connections found. Last year, a total of 7,475 illegal connections were unearthed.However, perhaps it was the figures regarding prosecutions and the time it takes in court that have GPL unhappy.There are over 1,000 cases in court that are pending for at least five years. Matters are dismissed because of the lack of employees to provide evidence, due to high staff turnover and protracted delays in completing cases. The delays result in many repeat offenders.Last year, 292 customers were arrested for theft of electricity with 11 convictions recorded and the rest pending in the courts. This year, for the first six months, 260 persons were nabbed, a clear indication that GPL is fighting an uphill battle.CollusionIn 2012, GPL’s Operations Department recorded over 13,000 inspections of meters with 778 found tampered with. Just over 3,Cheap Jerseys League,100 were also found defective, a worrying trend that has significant impact on the technical losses facing GPL.In the first half of 2013, the Operations Department visited 15,740 premises and carried out 12,478 meter investigations. Some 1,104 meters were tampered with and over 2,100 found defective.According to GPL officials, some of the key challenges it is facing includes corruption, recruitment of staffers, sloth in court, illegal connections and finances.As a matter of fact, there has been significant collusion found at its loss reduction arm, particularly with large business clients. GPL, because it has taken action against staffers, disclosed that it is facing a massive 30% annual staff turnover. While the loss reduction department at one time boasted 18 crews,Cheap NHL Jerseys, this has been reduced to 12.Corruption among staffers is causing a major problem, with GPL remaining unclear as to the extent of theft from tampered ins

Should we worry? Lately I have experienced a great number of persons inquiring about their elderly parent or family member, who had left home and not returned,Wholesale NFL Jerseys, to determine if they had joined the ranks of the unknown, who died recently.Let’s try to put this in perspective. According to reports from the National Institute of Health, about four million people have Alzheimer’s disease in the United States, I know that one will say we are not in the USA, however, studies are done to gather information and is usually applied globally. ?According to the National Institute of Health, about three percent of people between the ages of 65 and 74 have Alzheimer’s. This incidence dramatically increases with advancing age http://life.familyeducation.com/aging-parents/caretaking/49077.html; nearly half of the population over 85 years has the disease. Most people live an average of eight to 10 years from the onset of symptoms.Yes, it is something to be on guard for, especially as your parents enter their mid-80s, but it certainly isn’t something that every older person has to fear lurking around the corner.Dementia is actually an umbrella term (literally meaning “without mind”) that refers to the progressive loss of thinking, judgment,Wholesale Hockey Jerseys 2018, ability to focus, and ability to learn. More than half of the dementia cases are caused by Alzheimer’s, a disease named after German physician Alois Alzheimer, who discovered it back in 1906. No one is exactly sure what causes Alzheimer’s, but genetic factors are definitely in the mix.The second leading cause of dementia is multi-infarct dementia caused by the death of brain cells due to mini-strokes that block blood supply. These small, successive strokes often go unnoticed as they chip away at the brain. People with high blood pressure and diabetes are at considerable risk for this type of dementia.The Warning SignsJust remember everybody gets distracted. Everybody forgets a name, and everybody has misplaced his or her keys at one time or another. And some of us have even forgotten where we parked the car. So if all this is normal, how do you know when forgetfulness slides into the world of dementia?The Alzheimer’s Association has developed a list of the top 10 warning signs of Alzheimer’s. If your elder parent or family member experiences several of these symptoms, it’s time to get him or her to a doctor. One way you can be very helpful when you’ve scheduled your parent for a checkup for dementia is to make a copy of this list and write up the behaviors exhibited by your parent under each symptom. The behaviors that you note should not be typical lifelong behaviors of your elder. (My kids, for instance, certainly wouldn’t list losing car keys or forgetting their date of birth as a sign for me!)The Top 10 Warning Signs of Alzheimer’s Disease (from the Alzheimer’s Association)1. Memory loss affecting job skills. Frequently forgetsassignments, colleague’s names; appears confused for no reason.2. Difficulty performing familiar tasks. Easilydistracted; forgets what he or she was doing or why. Might prepare a meal and then forget to serve it,Cheap NHL Jerseys China, or that he or she even made it.3.Problems with language. Forgets simple words orsubstitutes inappropriate words; doesn’t make sense.4. Disorientation to time and place. May become lost onhis or her own street; doesn’t know where he or she is, how he or she got there, or how to get back home.5. Poor or decreased judgment. Usually exhibitedthrough wearing inappropriate clothing,NFL Jerseys China Online, or poor grooming. Forgets to wear a coat when it’s cold; wears a bathrobe to the store.6. Problems with abstract thinking. Exhibits troublewith numbers; can no longer make simple calculations.7. Misplaces things. Not only loses things, but puts thingsin inappropriate places, such as putting a purse in the freezer or a wristwatch in a sugar bowl. Has no idea how the items got there.8. Mood and behavior changes. Exhibits more rapidmood swings for no apparent reason.9. Changes in personality. Dramatic change inpersonality; for example, someone who was easygoing now appears extremely uptight. Becoming suspicious and fearful are commonly reported.10. Loss of initiative. Becomes extremely disinterested anduninvolved in areas that he or she used to enjoy.The most important thing is not to deny that your loved one may need special attention or medical intervention rather than say they are old, they have lived their life, they are big and it’s ok.? There are any things that can be done to ensure the elder remain safe, and denial is not one.“Oh, crazy me; I’d lose my own hea
