-former Auditor GeneralDays after Chairman of the Guyana Geology and Mines Commission (GGMC), Clinton Williams, defendedForensic Auditor of NICIL, Anand Goolsarranhis acquisition of several mining blocks in the Cuyuni, Region Seven,Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys, the issue is refusing to go away.Former Auditor General, Anand Goolsarran, in his weekly column, Accountability Watch in Stabroek News on Monday, questioned whether GGMC’s board was even made aware of the transaction.As Chairman of the Board, there had been criticisms that Williams abused his authority to help his friend, Ivor English, acquire eight blocks of mining lands last year.Days before early general elections in May of this year, Williams was granted control of those mining lands via an “Irrevocable Power of Attorney” (POA). Williams was appointed in January last year to that position.He said that he did nothing wrong, and in any case, there is nothing in the laws that prevent him from owning mining lands. As a matter of fact, there have been cases in the past where directors of GGMC owned mining lands.The Chairman also said that the processing of the applications was done by GGMC’s staffers, and approved by the Commissioner, before being sent to the Board of Directors for the final green light.However, according to Goolsarran in his column,Wholesale NBA Jerseys, Williams, as Chairman of the Board, would have been party to the decision to grant the mining permits to English.“A year after the Chairman took possession of the land via a POA. Was there any disclosure of this at the very next board meeting, and if so, what position did the board take?”Goolsarran argued that even though the mining laws may not address certain issues, it cannot be taken for granted that it may be immoral.“In addition, in as much as the law is silent in relation to board members acquiring mining permits, good governance would suggest that such a practice is unhealthy and can present a serious conflict of interest,” he wrote.As regards the criteria for the appointment of board members,Wholesale Jerseys Store, Goolsarran pointed out that the scheduleEmbattled GGMC Chairman: Clinton Williamsto the GGMC Act states that “The persons appointed by the Minister as members of the Commission shall be persons who, in his opinion, are qualified for appointment by reason of their experience of, and shown capacity in, matters relating to the functioning of the Commission or matters which will be advantageous to the Commission in the performance of its functions”.It does not necessarily follow that members of the Board have to be the holders of mining permits.“Indeed, prior to his becoming Chairman of the GGMC, Williams was not known to have had any experience or expertise in mining activities. In addition, contrary to GGMC’s assertion, there is no provision in the act that specifically allows for Board members “to be owners of mining lands or to have such interest”, and the absence of such a provision does not suggest that the law permits such a practice.”Further,Cheap Soccer Jerseys Free Shipping, Goolsarran argued,CHeap NFL Jerseys China, the fact that the previous chairpersons might have held interest in mining properties is no justification for a continuation of this undesirable practice.In addition to the lands, Williams has found himself in hot water after it became known that he racked up almost $4M in food and drinks tabs at three city restaurants.The tab raised eyebrows.Last week, analyst Ramon Gaskin, urged for Williams to be relieved of duties immediately by Government in light of the revelations.“This is totally out of order. I was the Chairman of Guyana Electricity Corporation (GEC) and Gaibank and I never had an expense account. It is improper to spend that kind of money.”Gaskin said he has been following the issues closely and from his information, no approval came from the Board for the $4M spending by the Chairman on food and drinks.“The information is there. The Commission paid for the food and drinks and all those who are responsible for those payments should be removed from there. The approvals for those mining lands are tantamount to misconduct…improper conduct.”Gaskin also warned that it would be a shame and indeed unjustifiable, if the new administration seeks to reappoint Williams as Chairman when the life of the Board expires this month-end.SHAMELESS“It is a shameless statement that has been issued by the Board. The Chairman cannot continue to hold on to that position any longer. He must be removed…it is as simple as that.”Gaskin’s statement would also come as the GGMC Board seeks to remove Commissioner Rickford Vieira from his post.Vieira was sent on administrative leave last week, with GGMC Board作者:

The People’s Progressive Party (PPP) is urging the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) to commence an “aggressive” voters’ education programme.The Party’s General Secretary,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, Clement Rohee said that GECOM “must” do this to sensitize voters about Election Day procedures as well as the rights of voters at polling places.Rohee said, “Voters must be aware of what to expect from GECOM polling day staff,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, for instance, stamping of the Ballot with the official stamp. One can recall the Herstelling fiasco in the 2011 Elections where 19 ballots papers were given to 19 individual voters without the Presiding or Assistant Presiding officer stamping them; this rendered the ballots rejected thus denying the democratic rights of 19 hardworking Guyanese.”Rohee added that the PPP has noted “with concern,China Jerseys,” the continuous extension to GECOM’s vacancy notice for polling day staff.He urged qualified and competent persons desirous of safeguarding Guyana’s democracy to apply for the post “so that suitably qualified persons are recruited to work on polling day.”Rohee also reiterated his Party’s call on GECOM to have public vetting of persons employed or who have applied to be employed to work on Election Day.This call has been made and remade several months. Rohee told the media, on Tuesday last, that public vetting will “justify the transparency of the process and enhance the confidence of the electorate in GECOM’s ability to deliver a free and fair election on May 11. Guyanese must demand public knowledge of all polling day staff since this should be of no secret to the populace.”The General Secretary said that GECOM must ensure that all polling places are checked and verified as quickly as possible and residents are made aware of these locations.“Again, the PPP is wary of GECOM’s last minute changes to the location of polling stations, which add to the frustration of voters. GECOM had agreed to minimize changes,Stitched Jerseys,” said Rohee.Rohee added that the PPP is seriously concerned over the use of Information Clerks at polling places with more than one polling station. This,NFL Jerseys Store, he said,Wholesale Jerseys, is due to the “bitter experiences of the 2011 elections and the confusion and frustration created by these information clerks, whether deliberate or not.作者:

"Stevan put a lot of work in this offseason preparing himself, making himself better,jerseys cheap nfl, improving his game and he was doing a good job for us," Slater said. "That's another situation you just hate to see sometimes, the cruel effects of this game with the injuries. It's definitely heartbreaking to see guys go down like that, but we have to do as good a job as we can of just trying to move on and continuing to play well."
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — With two wins and two more serious injuries, the New England Patriots are getting back to normal.
Ridley's injury occurred when he was tackled for a 2-yard loss by cornerback Stephon Gilmore and landed hard. He's leading the Patriots in rushing for the third straight season and hasn't had a fumble after losing two in 2012 and four last year,Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic.
New England has scored 80 points in its last two games after totaling 80 in its first four,NFL Jerseys From China.
They've regained their usual dominance after the second biggest loss of Tom Brady's career. They also lost their leading tackler and top rusher to right knee injuries, just as three important players were sidelined last year.
"Tom is doing a really good job of getting the ball to where it's supposed to go," offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels said. "Whenever it's their turn to be targeted, I think our guys are trying to do a good job of making the most of those opportunities."
Left guard Dan Connolly left the game with a concussion. Rookie center Bryan Stork missed the game with a concussion after starting the previous two games.
Mayo, chosen for two Pro Bowls in his first six NFL seasons, played six games last year before suffering a season-ending torn pectoral muscle. Two starting defensive tackles also had season-ending injuries, Vince Wilfork in the fourth game and Tommy Kelly in the fifth.
Mayo is a captain and chief communicator on defense.
"Whatever the future has in store for us, you just don't know as a football player," said defensive end Rob Ninkovich, who had three sacks Sunday after getting just one in the first five games. "You don't know what play or in what game that someone could have an injury. Whatever we have, we just have to go and continue on and stay mentally tough and have another guy step up."
Middle linebacker Jerod Mayo was taken off the field on a cart in the second quarter of the Patriots 37-22 win in Buffalo on Sunday. Late in the third quarter, running back Stevan Ridley was helped off the field. Neither returned and both have been declared out of Thursday night's home game against the New York Jets.
Without Ridley, New England could use Shane Vereen, Brandon Bolden or rookie James White, who has been active for just one game.
"A lot of guys have to step up because a guy like that is hard to replace, not only what he does on the field but who he is in this locker room, his leadership, the man that he is," special teams captain Matthew Slater said Monday. "There's no really replacing that guy with one guy."
Tight end Rob Gronkowski has progressed steadily after undergoing offseason knee surgery,Cheap China Jerseys. He had 13 catches in his first four games then added six against Cincinnati and seven against Buffalo.
Mayo's absence could be offset somewhat by the likely return of starting linebacker Dont'a Hightower. He missed his second straight game with a knee injury, but it was a game-time decision.
"In the back of your mind, I think you have to understand if you play this game long enough the injury rate's 100 percent," Slater said. "It may not always be the big, traumatic injuries, but there's going to be some sort of injury that you sustain."
The Patriots (4-2) have played very well since losing 41-14 at Kansas City on Sept. 29,Cheap NFL Jerseys Free Shipping. They routed the Cincinnati Bengals 43-17 the following Sunday then beat the Bills,China NFL Jerseys.
Brady is coming off his two best games of the season and is distributing the ball better. Against Buffalo, he threw four touchdown passes and had completions to 10 receivers.
"We are clicking as a team right now," he said. "We are clicking on offense and clicking on defense. We just have to keep it going and keep working hard. We can't put our heads down no matter what it is or what situation it is."
