It is 7:15 on a week­day morn­ing. Traf­fic crawls along the East­ern Main Road as com­muters inch to­wards an­oth­er work­day. A dri­ver abrupt­ly cuts in­to the next lane with­out sig­nalling. Horns pierce the morn­ing air. A PH taxi stops un­ex­pect­ed­ly to col­lect a pas­sen­ger, bring­ing traf­fic to a stand­still. Two mo­torists ex­change an­gry words through open win­dows. Just me­tres away, plas­tic bot­tles, food con­tain­ers and oth­er dis­card­ed waste clog a road­side drain that will al­most cer­tain­ly over­flow with the next heavy down­pour.

Over the years I have spent lots of time on so­cial me­dia ar­gu­ing that the Video As­sis­tant Ref­er­ee Sys­tem isn’t fit for pur­pose. There is of course the usu­al push­back that the tech­nol­o­gy al­lows for the cor­rect de­ci­sion and every­one should be in favour of hav­ing the cor­rect de­ci­sions in a foot­ball match, es­pe­cial­ly when the stakes are high.

Shan­nice Crys­tal Brit­to be­lieves that health is wealth. So when she in­tro­duced her prod­uct, North Coast Moss to the mar­ket one year ago, it was with the in­ten­tion of giv­ing her cus­tomers a pre­mi­um, pur­pose-dri­ven seamoss brand that pro­motes a more healthy lifestyle.

Busi­ness con­di­tions in Trinidad and To­ba­go’s en­er­gy ser­vices sec­tor re­mained mixed dur­ing the sec­ond quar­ter of 2026, ac­cord­ing to the lat­est En­er­gy Ser­vices Sec­tor Sur­vey (ES­SS) con­duct­ed by the En­er­gy Cham­ber of Trinidad and To­ba­go.

Search changed. How peo­ple shop changed. How peo­ple find busi­ness­es changed. Google held its I/O con­fer­ence in May, and Ap­ple held its World­wide De­vel­op­ers Con­fer­ence in June, both sig­nalling one of the biggest shifts the in­ter­net has seen in years, yet most busi­ness­es I work with across the re­gion are still run­ning a play­book built for the in­ter­net as it ex­ist­ed two or three years ago.
