"*Three birds and a goat...*", we're being lied to, there's no other explanation. If an assessment wasnt complete or hadnt started, a concrete statement about only 4 or 5 animals affected should not have been made. Should the camcerous animals have been slaughtered or is it ok to let contaminated animals roam, breed and leave contaminated droppings around? Are the contaminated animals being tracked? Do we know if for example people are catching roaming contaminated animals for food? Can the 4th estate please find out the extent of the damage caused by Equinor, how much they were fined and if they will be allowed to sell their operation before theyve made full restoration.

"*The Department of Agriculture has conducted an inspection of your five-acre farm located in South Riding Point, East Grand Bahama on the 27th July, 2020. The inspection has revealed that the integrity of pigs belonging to you were compromised due to their exposure to oil or oil by-products.*

*“The oil spill in September 2019 at the Equinor facility as a result of the passing of Hurricane Dorian has led to the compromised state of your pigs and you are hereby encouraged to neither slaughter them nor sell them for human consumption as they represent a health risk to any prospective consumer.*

*“This letter serves as a notice for you to take the necessary precautions moving forward.”*

The Pointe and Magaritaville are misplaced eyesores downtown. One of the nice things about our city in my eyes is our panoramic view of the skyline. I cant think of any other property with multistory buildings that feels so jammed up and ok ignore that esthetically it's a very plain building almost a box. Dont mention the new levels of flooding introduced since construction. I cant make sense of why they approved the design.

"*The Bahamas still largely a cash-based economy, he added that some gas station operators are being charged between $4,000 to $10,000 a month to deposit cash. With banks unwilling to accept such deposits over the counter, the industry is now incurring fees for doing this via the night deposit box.*"

Trust that digitization will not be a crime panacea.

"*When asked why he robbed banks, Sutton simply replied, “Because that's where the money is.” On February 15, 1933*"

Secondly when there is if ever a dramatic decrease in cash transactions, and banks lose that revenue, trust that the banks will find innovative ways to charge you for their services, maybe everytime you access their portal it'll be a charge, maybe they'll charge a monthly subscription... watch and see

Dont get the point. I looked at the photo and the first thing that struck me was how professional they looked, no fake eyelashes, no long store bought hair and no tiger claws.

The photographer staged the photo of 3 women from the bureau. These would be 3 women leading a statistical unit, do they get everything right? Probably not but they'd be in the top percentile of the examples of educational intelligence we want our female children to emulate

You're correct. I wasnt contacted either. If they didnt contact legal residents who aren't trying to hide, would stretch belief that they got in contact with people trying to avoid them, but they'll have to explain their collection process, was it that people were expected to volunteer to be surveyed given COVID environment, possible, not sure.

It's also possible that they knew they hadn't touched everyone but the pressure was on to produce a report. I know that happens in regular business environments, dont know to what extent that's valid reasoning for a census

"*Then the animal lovers see the thetered dog and denounce you for being cruel.*"

If you have to tie up a dog you shouldnt own one

Its weird

Had the exact same thought but just deleted the comment, what's the use? It's a bad accounting of results.Not sure how you have economic impact when costs exceed revenue... but ok. They give costs for Carifta in Apr 2023 but give total revenue from Sept 2022, it's all over the place and impossible to extract anything useful out of it.

"*The president took accountability for the lack of scoring and display boards.*

Think they meant to say "*took responsibility*"you can be "*made accountable*"

"*When we take an index of what makes a games great, I think that’s really a matter for the people, the spectators, and everyone included, to say what that really represents to them.*"

This is why we dont improve. Fan feedback post event is **one** measure you take into account post event but that is subjective, there are a multitude of other objective measures that you can predefine and then check against what you defined as success. One such is ticket sales. Before an event you can set a measure success as *80% tickets sold*. Another might be processing time. *Each guest will be processed in 1min*. Another *95% of races start on time*. *the scoreboard is in place functional and event result data displayed within seconds of event finish*

I personally believe we keep these wishy washy standards so we can claim success no matter what the outcome is, because we hear these dubious, *no matter what happened it was a success* repeated over and over.

Im really apprehensive the upcoming meet in Grand Bahama. I hope they planned for improvement and an A1 experience for the athletes on and off the track.
