New York has lifted its masks requiring mandate and so has Walmart for fully vaccinated staff who wish to not wear masks. Apparently they are not aware that vaccines make no difference with the Omnicron variants. Pfizer has canceled its requests to have vaccines for children under five years approved for emergency use, citing a difficulty with determining the exact dosage needed for this toddlers. Maybe the right amount ( upwards of 1/3 the adult dosage was too much for the kids. .
. The fact is the world is not standing still or going into lockdowns or resorting to curfews to combat Covid-19. They are pressing forward in hopes of achieving some sense of normalcy. And getting schools reopened fully and children in a best fit environment has to be on the ‘to do’ list. Can no longer sit and wait for things to get perfect. Start something, do something and fine tune and adjust as is necessary.
In the US, when they want to destroy a politician or some public figure, (males especially),they would usually accuse them of sexual misconduct, not necessarily crimes and line up the victims one after the other and the stories would be more salacious than believable and maybe that's what gets the public's attention and support even. There was one recent victim who claims her predator, a public figure who was in his 70's spent hours raping her. Hours? .
Here in this country the lean seems to be towards accusing a person of dishonesty and/or corruption. maybe because sweet hearting is more of a 'given" in political and public life, and, even to some degree in religious circles.
.
But the public is growing tired and intolerant of hearing of all these acts of malfeasance and no one is ever brought before the courts and successfully convicted and none of the stolen or mismanaged loot is never recovered, And the flip side of this coin is when innocent people have their names and even that of family members dragged viciously and unceremoniously through the mud. And their lifestyle is crippled, their public name is tarnished and nothing happens to the accuser(s)

First of all, WHAT are they vaccinating against? The science and data show that the Omicron strains are resistant to all vaccines!!! all! And the experts in South Africa suggests that getting vaccinated or taking booster shots after recovering from Omicron increases your chances of being reinfected. In fact they suggested easing vaccinations and only allowing high risk or highly exposed persons to get vaccinated. This, they say, is to avoid more mutations and more highly resistant variants. Notice how they quietly stop saying how many vaccinated people were infected or how many were hospitalized or even died from the virus. Johnson and Johnson will soon stop manufacturing Covid vaccines because it claims the demand for them is dwindling.
‘ kingston, Jamaica – According to the latest police crime statistics, 112 people were murdered in Jamaica over the first 23 days of 2022.
This is 15 more homicides or a 15.5 per cent increase when compared with the corresponding period in 2021.
The St James Police Division leads the murder count with 21 cases, a 16.7 per cent increase compared to the 18 homicides reported in the division up to January 23 last year.’
This murder thing appears to be an unstoppable monster throughout the Caribbean as well in a number of US cities. Even with increased or more harsher penalties nothing will change until the mindset of the people is changed. Some have no value for life and believe the right thing to do is to kill anyone that offends them. Worry about the punishment later. And some value material things more than a life and so they will kill to get what they want. And some link the violent and murderous minds to poor, unhealthy diets. Too much meat in a diet will bring out animal instincts.
Politics has become even bigger business in The Bahamad and many believe or know the quickest path to lucrative contracts is through the party machinery. How many are entering the race with a keen and genuine interest in making the party better and eventually helping the GNM form the next government of The Bahamas? Two things for certain; The Bahamian people do not seem ready to give up their habit of changing government every five years. So you can almost say with certainty that the FNM will form the next government of The Bahamas unless The Brave Davis Administration performs exceptionally well and the country goes into elections when there is a booming economy, low unemployment and no national or international issue of great concern. And/or the FNM becomes a party that is severely lackluster, unappealing or having some other major handicap like poor leadership.
Las Vegas has embarked on a program to make every watt of energy used in that city renewable. From wind mills to solar farms to hydro electric power. As we sit on our hands and wait for the gas pumps to run dry. GM is reviving its closed and abandoned the lanes in Michigan to start producing electric vehicles, including pickup trucks and plants currently in production will also be converted to produce b electric vehicles. Why can’t vehicles in The Bahamad have dolor roofs that allow the vehicles to charge both when parked in the daytime and while being driven ?
First of all your argument is totally skewed and biased. If they allow foreigners to come from any part of the world and gamble, then why exclude Bahamians? From owning and gambling in their own country.A lucrative business, yes and one that more Bahamians need to be able to participate in and share the benefits from. If casino gambling was taken to a referendum both for allowing them to operate and allowing Bahamians to gamble do you think the referendum would be defeated? As for the legalization of marijuana: firstly this country is rampant with all forms of cancer and other terminal illnesses that whilst marijuana and it’s by products cannot cure, they can help in terminal care of patients, making their final days less painful and more comfortable. Also there are many patients who use these medications in their home countries and visit the Bahamas only to find that they cannot bring their medication with them or those who mistakenly do are arrested and have to pay hefty fines to avoid jail time. And as for recreational marijuana like illegal gambling, those who want to smoke marijuana are already doing so. The horses have already left the gate and to try to call them back is near impossible. So why not now regular it and legalize it and allow government to earn tax revenue from it? The crime associated with the illegal will also subside or disappear and the danger from consumers buying illegal and unregulated products will be minimum. As for the cultivation of marijuana, this should be strictly regulated and carefully monitored. As more and more farmland is dedicated to the cultivation of marijuana in the US and elsewhere, the value of crops will increase. The Bahamad must now move towards the cultivation of food crops on large scale with intentions not only to supply the local market but for export. Soil and climate conditions are no longer major factors as nee technology band innovations make farming more technology than labor intensive. Think even about harnessing the cheap labor and excellent growing conditions in Haiti
