Ransomware is rampant all over. With some instances they may be targeted, but for the most part this has become a career for hackers. Encrypt your data and hold it ransom, your computer will work fine but you stare at garbled files all day. I don't think most ever read the info, they just want some $$ from you to unlock it, or you better have some good backups.
Scary stuff. Every year the PLP has bad news for us at Christmas. VAT launch Christmas 2014. VAT depression, hurt and dismay Christmas 2015, now S&P downgrade Christmas 2016 but our govt officials don't give a rat's a$$ as long as they get theirs...
LBT seemed to note that the assumption in general was that the people would be voting against the PLP no matter what. Well..is that so bad :0 seems like even a decently held together FNM could've knocked the PLP out, now we have this fight for "change" which might just end up with the 242 enduring more of exactly the "same."
Not a bad "reminder" article for the government to see in the papers. Something needs to be done as this looks like a dry winter coming. Let these guys have a shot, they are in the industry and will garner international support.
Whether climate change is real or not it would be nice if we can get some emissions testing on these old jalopys driving around (Min. Ken Dorsett whispered something about this in like 2014 http://myplp.org/2014/03/12/dorsett-ann… no clue where the bill is sitting now...), and try to put a concerted effort into Solar power instead of Bunker C out at Clifton.
Gross. Looks like trees with Spanx on. I'm wondering if this is some sort of tree wrap designed just for The Bahamas since I couldn't find anything similar online...what a waste...
Moody's peeps might be the only set in the Universe believing that Baha Mar will open anytime in early 2017; mind you I noticed all of their Baha Mar references were in quotes of what the "government" says will happen. #foolmetwice
