> A would-be visitor to the country recently talked to The Tribune about scrapping plans to visit The Bahamas because they were immunocompromised having had treatment for cancer – and could not take the risk of boarding a plane and travelling around people who might not be following social distancing rules or wearing masks, and the same in hotels when they arrived.

I am sure that this individual refrained from other activities on the account of being immunocompromised as well.

**volenti non fit injuria: The Timorous May Stay at Home**

> The voluntary assumption of risk principle was espoused by Mr. Justice Benjamin Cardozo in the famous Flopper case, a decision rendered by the New York Court of Appeals in 1929. Judge Cardozo dismissed James Murphy’s injury claim as the latter broke his knee on an amusement ride (a moving belt). Judge Cardozo told the “vigorous young man” that if he wanted to live the life of a “cloistered cleric” or to do “meditation”…Plaintiff Murphy…the “timorous may stay at home”.

galleria marked the end of RND.
now fusion took over.

there is only so many people who go to the movies.

Me? Last time I went to the movies was 1995. I watched "Losing Isiah". At RND.

> “Now unless we are saying that we no longer need to pay attention to the positivity rate, we no longer pay attention to the increase in cases, we no longer pay attention to the number of people getting vaccinated, we no longer pay attention to the number of people tested,

Yes, that is exactly what they are saying. They were elected to do that.

i am thankful for the fifth column that brought omicron about. Omicorn is a defacto vaccine.

send him to shanghai.

> Revealing that AID would sell automotive goods at prices up to one-third cheaper without price controls,

You ixpect me to believe that?

> “AID would manufacture that item rather than buy it from a wholesaler,

You ixpect me to believe that.

If that were true, then supervalue would start a dairy farm.

do not be sexist.
Gunman have periods and get pregnant too.

Many years ago, electric golf carts were all the rage in Abaco.
They were costly.
Now their resale value is low, and people selling will tell you they need thousands of dollars worth of batteries.

The solar power is also a ruse. The sales people do not tell us about long term costs.

In Spain , people were induced to invest in Solar energy to sell it to the govt. Then a new govt cut out the purchase and brought ruin to many.

At least here BPL refuses to pay and compels you to buy their energy. Lol.

> Commander Bertram Bowleg, acting Road Traffic controller, believes the country should move in the direction of Europe where bicycles are the main mode of transportation in The Netherlands.

I will let Mr. Bertram go first. Cruising at 90F and 95% humidity down Independence drive. He would not last a day.

And, and child labor in the Congo to extract Cobalt, at 75cents a day wages and where hundreds die every year.

I have a problem with that.

Unlike the price controlled items, their margin is not fixed by a percentage.

So, if you are a dealer and buy gas at 5.00, your price at the pump is 5.45. So your profit margin is 9%.

If you buy the gas at 8.00, your price at the pump is 8.45. So your profit is 0.45÷8 or 5.6%.

Now let's look at the eggs, the margin is fixed by percentage, 10%. If you buy eggs for 5 dollars you sell at 5.50.

If you buy eggs for 8 dollars, you sell for 8.80.

So yes, like Tribanon says, the margin for tha dealer is set by amount and not percentage.
