We have vaccines, etc on hand. I'm guessing he means two shots and a box is aspirin. Lol. We k kw just how inept the government is with things. There's an expiration date for these vaccines. If no one takes it, it gets thrown away. So, what's the strategy? The main person's they say are ar risk are gay and bisexual men are people with multiple sex partners. However, the way the disease is transmitted doesn't add up to why these groups are more at risk. Someone should explain this to ensure there isn't a panic or is the global community guessing like they did with COVID?

Geezus....why is she always fighting with someone? Is there no one she can work with? Dang! She comes across like a mob boss more than a teacher.

Congratulations! Hopefully she stays in the US. Considerably more opportunities there.

Just to be clear, are these mushrooms legal? I'm guessing he didn't have PTSD, right? There are studies showing positive effects of psychedelic drugs. This case doesn't help that argument.

The person writing this article missed up the figures. They presented the numbers twice but changed them. Which Ines are right. If students can't read and write and do basic arithmetic, the system has failed. The issue isn't so much that 80 to 85 percent of students can't pass these exams. It's that a lot of them are not focused and their parents are focused on other things than their child's performance. Every student will not be great academically but a lot of these students are not as bad as we believe. With better teachers and better parents we would have better grades.

While I would agree that banks need better oversight than they are currently getting, what the country needs more than anything is good governance. Tell the bank to be more reasonable with fees and interest rates. Great! But, as a government they need to balance the budget; improve and fix infrastructure; ensure the public healthcare sector have the proper tools and are up to date; provide a better public education to the poor and working class and ensure the national security framework is robust and adequate. Then after all of this, we could appreciate the discussion of bank reform.

This is a wider problem. A lot of people who are not physically challenged are parking in handicap spots. It's just unbelievable that they would do they but they do. As sith everything here, if no one gets punished, nothing changes. I'm sure there are penalties for this infraction. But, as with everything else, it's not enforced.

Lebanon? Lol. I guess it's good BPL is better than their Lebanese counterpart given we were behind the West Bank and Gaza Strip a few years ago for ease of doing business.

So let me see. Energy reform = more business for FOCOL and crew. How are we in such dire need of help energy wise when we've spent tons of money on top of the line generators and also have engaged in having FOCOL supply a good portion of our energy needs. It's very interesting that things deteriorate exponentially right around the time someone gets a great deal. A deal that is perplexing as to why they got it and why is it more beneficial to those getting the deal than it is to the consumer.

He is saying customers need to complain to the Central Bank. They get complaints. But their response is always that they can't get involved in that. The regulatory bodies here don't regulatory. They're just there for show, to create the illusion of a robust system.
