Government regulators cleared American flights to get airborne about an hour after the Federal Aviation Administration ordered a national ground stop for the airline. The order, which prevented planes from taking off, was issued at the airline's request. The airline said in an email that the problem was caused by trouble with vendor technology that maintains its flight operating system. Dennis Tajer, a spokesperson for the Allied Pilots Association, a union representing American Airlines pilots, said the airline told pilots at 7 a.m. Eastern that there was an outage affecting the system known as FOS. It handles different types of airline operations, including dispatch, flight planning, passenger boarding, as well as an airplane's weight and balance data, he said. Some components of FOS have gone down in the past, but a systemwide outage is rare, Tajer said. Hours after the ground stop was lifted, Tajer said the union had not heard about any “chaos out there beyond just the normal heavy travel day.” He said officials were watching for any cascading effects, such as staffing problems. Flights were delayed across American's major hubs, with only 37% leaving on time, according to Cirium, an aviation analytics company. Out of the 3,901 domestic and international American Airlines flights scheduled for Tuesday, 19 were canceled. Cirium noted that the vast majority of flights were departing within two hours of their scheduled departure time. A similar percentage — 36% — were arriving at their destinations as scheduled. Meanwhile, the flight-tracking site FlightAware reported that 3,712 flights entering or leaving the U.S., or serving domestic destinations, were delayed Tuesday, with 55 flights canceled. It did not show any flights from American Airlines. Cirium said Dallas-Fort Worth, New York’s Kennedy Airport and Charlotte, North Carolina, saw the greatest number of delays. Washington, Chicago and Miami experienced considerably fewer delays. Amid the travel problems, significant rain and snow were expected in the Pacific Northwest at least into Christmas Day. Showers and thunderstorms were developing in the South. Freezing rain was reported in the Mid-Atlantic region near Baltimore and Washington, and snow fell in New York. Because the holiday travel period lasts weeks, airports and airlines typically have smaller peak days than they do during the rush around Thanksgiving, but the grind of one hectic day followed by another takes a toll on flight crews. And any hiccups — a winter storm or a computer outage — can snowball into massive disruptions. That is how Southwest Airlines stranded 2 million travelers in December 2022, and Delta Air Lines suffered a smaller but significant meltdown after a worldwide technology outage in July caused by a faulty software update from cybersecurity company CrowdStrike. Many flights during the holidays are sold out, which makes cancellations even more disruptive than during slower periods. That is especially true for smaller budget airlines that have fewer flights and fewer options for rebooking passengers. Only the largest airlines, including American, Delta and United, have “interline agreements” that let them put stranded customers on another carrier’s flights. This will be the first holiday season since a Transportation Department rule took effect that requires airlines to give customers an automatic cash refund for a canceled or significantly delayed flight. Most air travelers were already eligible for refunds, but they often had to request them. Passengers still can ask to get rebooked, which is often a better option than a refund during peak travel periods. That’s because finding a last-minute flight on another airline tends to be expensive. An American spokesperson said Tuesday was not a peak travel day for the airline — with about 2,000 fewer flights than the busiest days — so the airline had somewhat of a buffer to manage the delays. The groundings happened as millions of travelers were expected to fly over the next 10 days. The Transportation Security Administration expects to screen 40 million passengers through Jan. 2. Airlines expect to have their busiest days on Thursday, Friday and Sunday. Many flights during the holidays are sold out, which makes cancellations more disruptive than during slower periods. Even with just a brief outage, the cancellations have a cascading effect that can take days to clear up. About 90% of Americans traveling far from home over the holidays will be in cars, according to AAA. “Airline travel is just really high right now, but most people do drive to their destinations, and that is true for every holiday,” AAA spokesperson Aixa Diaz said. Gasoline prices are similar to last year. The nationwide average Thursday was $3.04 a gallon, down from $3.13 a year ago, according to AAA. Charging an electric vehicle averages just under 35 cents per per kilowatt hour, but varies by state. Transportation-data firm INRIX says travel times on the nation’s highways could be up to 30% longer than normal over the holidays, with Sunday expected to see the heaviest traffic. Boston, New York City, Seattle and Washington are the metropolitan areas primed for the greatest delays, according to the company. —— Associated Press writers David Koenig, Mae Anderson and Mike Pesoli contributed to this report.Surveillance tech advances by Biden could aid in Trump’s promised crackdown on immigration

Below is the Christmas message from the General Secretary of the Congress of Trade Unions and Staff Associations of Barbados (CTUSAB), Dennis de Peiza: As nations around the world celebrate the Yuletide season, which is a Christian holiday to celebrate the birth of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, it is a timely reminder that it is also an occasion to reflect on the set of ideals and principles which came with Jesus’s birth. These were meant to dictate the behaviour and actions of those who live on planet earth. While it is the traditional practice to engage in festive activities during this Christian festival, it is important that the people of the nation take time out to reflect on the fact that Christ’s birth was intended to bring life, hope and peace to mankind. It is important that the morale of the nativity story is not lost, as it weaves together lessons of kindness, humility and inclusivity. These values are treasures that will shape our children’s character and interactions with the world around them. At a time in the history of Barbados where there seems to be a crisis amongst our youth and young people in particular, which is characterised by indiscipline, a lack of respect, disregard for law and order, deviant behaviour and crime and violence, there is an urgent need for a return to first principles. It is essential that the societal decay which is being experienced is arrested, and that the morals, values and mores which once formed the bedrock of the Barbadian society are restored. While there is merit in the championing of the rights of people and specifically those of children, right-thinking Barbadians would accept that there is a limit to the level of empowerment which is to be given. There ought to be an awareness that there is an ultimate price to be paid when extensive liberties are granted in any society. Barbados can ill afford to adopt all of the practices which are promoted and embraced in western cultures and the British Commonwealth, simply for the reasons of wanting to show compliance, when these practices are detrimental to the local traditions and culture that are to be preserved and respected. Barbadians should be prepared to promote the position that ‘where it is not broken, don’t attempt to fix it.’ Barbadians ought to send a clear signal that while there is support for ensuring and safeguarding the rights of adult persons, school-age children and young persons, there must be reasonableness applied in the extension of liberties given to all human beings. How can this society account for the deviant and violent behaviour exhibited by school-age children, the youth, and young people of this country that has become a daily diet on social media platforms, where there is video evidence of unsavoury happenings at schools and on the streets of Barbados? How do we account for the crime wave and, in particular, that of gun crimes which are said to be committed by young persons between the ages of 17-35? How do we account for the highlighting of young persons in the daily newspapers, accused of committing some form of crime and the expressions they communicate of being a champion, without seemingly a care or worry? Is it that they have the satisfaction of being protected by universal rights? How do we account for the various senseless and lawless acts which include the challenging and obstruction of the police in the execution of their duties by young persons? Those who wish to challenge the fact that our society is in a state of crisis where school-age children and young people feature prominently may want to consider why the Government of Barbados and the Ministry of Education, Technological and Vocational Training is placing so much attention on reform schools for deviant children, such as the Edna Nicholls School and the recently opened New Horizon Residential School. To add to this, there is the planned reopening of the Alma Parris Secondary School. There is also the need to understand the thinking which informed the decision taken by the Ministry of Education, Technological and Vocational Training to have a significant uptake in the number of Guidance Counsellors and Psychologists in the school system. This action suggests that there is a recognition of the severity of the problem, which must be tackled at the root level. This Christmas, the Congress of Trade Unions and Staff Associations of Barbados endorses and voices Christ’s message of love, hope and peace. Additionally, it calls on parents and guardians of this nation’s children to participate in the programmes offered by the organisation Parent Education for Development in Barbados (PAREDOS). As we celebrate this Christmas, CTUSAB, as a responsible organisation, calls on all families of the nation to be guided by the words of Proverbs 22: verse 6: “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” CTUSAB extends season’s greetings and best wishes to all Barbadians at home and abroad, residents and visitors alike.

The MoU outlines a shared commitment to capacity-building, innovation, and knowledge exchange. This strategic partnership aligns with the aspirations of the Rwandan government of being the leading technology and innovation hub in Africa. On Friday, December 20, Yves Iradukunda, the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of ICT and Innovation, alongside Jin Jinqing, the Managing Director of Huawei Technologies Rwanda LTD, formally finalised the signing of the MOU that promises to provide digital talent and skills development to Rwandan youths and digitalisation through emerging technology initiatives in agriculture, healthcare, education, and public services. Speaking at the ceremony, Iradukunda stated that the Rwandan government is determined to create infrastructure and tech-flexible environments for more companies like Huawei Technologies to set up and operate optimally in the country while providing opportunities to youths. “With a number of excellent universities focusing on technology, we hope that this becomes an immediate pipeline of talent,” he noted. The government through the ministry aims to make Kigali a regional hub for proof-of-concept projects, enabling talent to practice and innovate solutions for Africa’s challenges. Jinqing affirmed, “Over the coming years, we aim to nurture thousands of Rwandan ICT talents. This includes expanding our cooperation with local partners, introducing new ICT training programmes, and the existing internship programme and talent recruitment efforts.” He further stated that such initiatives will create a skilled workforce equipped to navigate the demands of the global economy and bridge the digital divide gap. Jinqing emphasised, “This approach would ensure that Rwandan youth would be competitive in international job markets and their employability would be greatly improved.” In his closing remarks, Jinqing also reaffirmed their eagerness to work with the government of Rwanda and promised a possible long-term working relationship. He expressed his sincere appreciation to the Rwandan government for its tremendous progress in connectivity, skills development, and digital adoption. “I believe the signing of this MOU is not only a formal agreement, but it will be a shared commitment for us to leverage the power of technology to shape the bright future of Rwanda.” Huawei Technologies pledged to skill and empower Rwandan ICT professionals by delivering world-class ICT training through the Huawei ICT Academy, the Huawei ICT competitions, and the Leadership Employability Advancement and Possibility (LEAP) Digital Talent programme. These Huawei global initiatives aim to encourage young talent to excel in Information and Communications Technology through industry-level exposure, training, and competitions fostering digital transformation in all their host countries. Huawei also plans to tap into the talent pool of university students and graduates for projects to develop solutions in artificial intelligence, smart cities, and clean energy.", "author": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Vincent Sugira" }, "publisher": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "The New Times", "url": "https://www.newtimes.co.rw/", "sameAs": ["https://www.facebook.com/TheNewTimesRwanda/","https://twitter.com/NewTimesRwanda","https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuZbZj6DF9zWXpdZVceDZkg"], "logo": { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "/theme_newtimes/images/logo.png", "width": 270, "height": 57 } }, "copyrightHolder": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "The New Times", "url": "https://www.newtimes.co.rw/" } }Modders take it upon themselves to make inventive transitions to the existing ideas, giving them a new lease of life and possible direction that manufacturers themselves may not have crossed. A case in point is the new BBook AI Original Edition: a portable laptop-style gaming device featuring the internals of a PlayStation 5. The modded Sony game console in the new portable body comes attached to a 17.3-inch 4K display, and weighs close to 5kg dead weight. Almost twice as heavy as the original console, a first look at the BBook AI reminds me of the gaming laptop I owned back in 2008. It is a visually intriguing creation nonetheless, for it has made it possible to play your favorite game like Astro Bot even when you do not have the convenience of an external screen to plug your PS5 into. Designer: The brainchild of Chinese modders, the battery-less laptop-style BBook AI Original Edition is in itself a fully functional PlayStation 5 that you can use on the go, or perhaps setup traditionally with an external screen at home. Powered by an eight-core AMD CPU, and a 36 Compute Unit AMD RDNA 2 GPU, features 16GB of GDDR 6 unified memory, 825GB of PCIe 4.0 storage, and an attached 17.3-inch 3840×2160 IPS display with 100% DCI-P3 coverage and a meagre 60Hz refresh rate. All this resides within the 3D-printed body of the BBook AI Original Edition. From how it appears in the pictures, the BBook AI will have its own keyboard and a USB Type-A 10 Gbps port for connectivity. As previously mentioned, this laptop-like PS5 can connect to an external display, if needed. It comes with an HDMI 2.1 port on the side for that. If you want to do that, then there is essentially no convenience of the BBook AI. The idea of portable gameplay is compromised, and if ought to do that, you might as well invest in the original PlayStation 5. That said, convenience is also compromised by the fact that the BBook AI Original Edition does not have a built-in battery. So, when you have to play a game on it, you would have to rely on AC power to run it. If you don’t mind the idea of a PlayStation 5 in a laptop form factor, measuring 13.3mm thick, and weighing 5kg with its adaptor; you are in for a pretty loud – its sound system capable of reaching 71.3 dB – 3D printed gaming laptop you can get your hands on for $2,750.
