Takes a lot of moolah to "activate" these things.
first you pay for these proprietary softwares, then you have to pay programmers for the programme to do what you want.
One might decide the price is too much in a couple of years.
the school officials were on tv last night and looked pathetic.
among their excuses was that grades were entered by the faculty online for the first time, so the grades were late. surely an indictment on the IT who cannot predict the demand or the faculty that are not sufficiently computer literate to produce their work on time.

why is it that the average worker has to work till December 24 but they close the school on December 14. Remember these folks get generaous vacation packations anywhere from 4-6 weeks a year, but they artificially close the administration offices at 11 am on DEcember 14th!!!!!!!
that just shows disdain for students, especially those on financial aid who are completely disregarded in this whole online process.
had it been me, i would not be recording anything. i might be exposed to lawsuits , court trouble, might become 'known to police' and, who knows 'known to the criminals'. and , in cyber space there will be a permanent trace of me. and no, i do not fear crime.
Easy. There is no legal recourse for residents. If they started some kind of legal action, it would cost hundreds of thousands in legal fees and stretch ten years or more.
Your neighbourhood is not the first to suffer in this manner. Look at what happened in Shirlea, Montagu Heights, etc...

the case everywhere in the world where there is force majeure. have you ever been in florida when areas are evacuated and you have to pay for your own hotel inland? In the US, you do not complain, but here , well use Bahamasair as a whipping boy.

why are the pretty israeli models selling cosmetics on bay street.
they harassed me like that and wanted to sell me 700 (yes seven hundred dollars) face cream.
when you say no, they keep reducing the price until it is about 50 dollars provided you become one of their selling agents.
lol
i go to the pharmacy and buy nivea cream.
and, BTW, those product brands are reported in ripoff websites online, they only operate in high traffic tourist areas as people cannot return to bring back the snake oil.
diane got called because she looks like a tourist.
they would not call a black person dressed for work to their shop.

i suspect it takes a couple of years to gather the funds to pay the programmers.
what they should really do is operate an academic programme and a financial programme like quickbooks simultaneously.
i do not think universities have payment plans as creative as the ones offered in the bahamas.

this stupid argument shows up every time there is some good news about animal welfare.
the fate of animals in the bahamas is often very poor.
as to the canadians, dogs do not need immigrant visa, but people do.
but, just in case, if one of these billionaires want to send me a stipend to take in more pets, call me.
