Mudda - the fact that they have taken this moment instead of say 1 year when Carnival was still coming here - to bring up this subject tells you all you need to know. Just because they are planning an investment all those not wanting to see GB succeed either because they are anti fnm or anti white have come out of thw bushes.
Plastics are the most disturbing problem in the seas today. Sewerage is organic. Plastics are found by the hundreds of pounds in dead whales. Several recent stories in the news.
Where were these anti carnival people PRIOR to their announcement that they wish to buy the Lucayan hotel?

Another environmental group (who wishes to remain anonymous for the time being) is in the process of implementing what they are calling The Poop Pack Project (PPP). Specially designed "aquatic poop packs" - designed in Holland - consist of a tiny clear plastic collection bag and two rubber band straps. One strap is tied to the dorsal (top) fin of a fish or shark and the second strap is attached to the thin connecting flesh between the body and the tail of the fish or shark or dolphin. The pack is aligned with the anus of the creature and collects "poop" (sewerage) in real time.
A team of 850 volunteer scuba divers from around the world are set to descend on the southern shores of Grand Bahama to begin attaching the devices. A subset of the group will be assigned to emptying the sacks periodically. Tiny gps trackers allow a computer to follow the complex movements (no pun intended) of the numerous sea creatures and determine the best dive sites going forward for emptying. The emptying is done with small vacuum canisters with a nozzle that can fit into the sacks.
While some say this is traumatic for the fish, it at least keeps the ocean clean. Angela Mirkowski, one of the team leaders said "We like to think of it as a little detail that God forgot, but we are happy to pitch in and help Him out."
The team has worked the last few years in the waters between Australia and Indonesia, but have had their efforts neutralized by the overboard pooping of immigrants traveling from Indonesia to Australia who refuse to wear a larger version of the packs.
"An environmentalist's work is never done," said Angela.

Im glad that they finally listed their concerns. 123. Cool. Why WSC wont post an organizational chart is beyond me. I had the same issue when i worked for a different govt dept many years ago.

This is news? They always focusing on the detention center. Too many Bahamians in fox hill prison i guess. Suppose Bahamians dont deserve human rights?

TheMadHatter says...

PLPs who dont want the FNM to have a successful sale of Lucayan hotel. Blatant. Obvious. Silly. How can people work actively for the Bahamas to fail and for Bahamians to be unemployed. They have no shame? Im lost for an explanation.

"Speaking as the government unveiled its nine-month fiscal “snapshot” and budgetary report, Mr Johnson and K P Turnquest, ..."

Does anyone know in which dark corners and under what rocks the government "unveils" these reports?

Dear businesses and consumers, please be reminded that we still live in the stone age (and are proud of it). Get yourself a good dinosaur club and a Fred Flintstone outfit, and enjoy your day. Progress? Don't make me laugh. Not in this God-forsaken country. We backward, and only wish we could be even more backward. Young black men in cages? I guess that gets some people excited, makes their day (or night).

Anyone know about the 70th Congress which would have had goals for 2010 and how much / if any of those goals were reached? Or is this just a ten year get-together hang out and talk bull party?

This is ours .... absolutely God is not bad. Yes Jesus would be upset. Like the famous comedian Robin Williams once said "This time when Jesus returns he's not gonna be a mild mannered carpenter. He's gonna be a sheet metal worker and he's gonna be god.da..ed pissed off."
