Down icon An icon in the shape of a downward angle. There are numerous references to the late Jimmy Buffett throughout the resort. Simone Paget I’m not a Jimmy Buffett fan, but Margaritaville Cancun is my favorite all-inclusive resort.All the food at the resort was amazing, from breakfast to the taco boat. I actually liked the kitschy decor, and the atmosphere was relaxing and fun. I’ve never been a fan of Jimmy Buffett’s music, and the late musician’s Margaritaville hotel and restaurant has always seemed a bit tacky to me.But a recent stay at Margaritaville Island Reserve Riviera Maya on…

Residents are an essential part of the health care system, providing essential medical services while undergoing training to obtain medical licensure. However, a disturbing trend has emerged across the country where residency programs and hospitals are frequently violating the rights and protections residents have under their employment contracts, state labor laws, and accreditation standards. I have had to address these issues myself, despite having little knowledge of the legal aspects of health care. Residents serve in a hybrid role of both employee and student. They are likely employees of the hospital or medical center where they work, but they are…

Greg Newby sees the potential to save the planet in a group that many would find unlikely: hackers.But the Ontario, Canada, tech expert and environmental activist is urging people to think beyond mainstream notions of hacking that are often packaged for the masses in films like “War Games.”It’s a counterculture that he believes can be harnessed to solve some of the planet’s biggest problems, including pollution, disease and extinction.”We need talented people with great ideas and a lot of energy to address the climate crisis,” Newby told The Cool Down about a month before he speaks at HOPE XV, a…

Pope Francis met with directors and employees of major companies and banks, urging them to hire the poor and young people. By Joseph Tulloch On Saturday morning, Pope Francis met with directors and employees of major companies and banks in the Vatican. His guests were all members of the Sustainable Markets Initiative, a private environmental network. The Pope told members that their decisions were crucial because they would “affect thousands of workers” and “affect the fate of the government.” For this reason, the Pope said he would like to briefly reflect with them on three themes: the environment, the poor…

I have never lived through a national election like this one. I cannot recall a national election in my lifetime where the only question for voters was who they disliked least.There have certainly been moments in the past when incumbent governments were so disliked that their defeat was clearly inevitable, but such times were accompanied by at least some hope and optimism for a rival to topple the government.Now, this conclusion is inescapable, both from polling evidence that shows there is little enthusiasm for Sir Keir Starmer to become prime minister in what is seen as a presidential election, and…

Heat arrived in the eastern half of the country on Friday, but it’s just an appetizer of what’s to come. A vast and extremely powerful heat dome…

Four years after the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Trade Agreement (USMCA) was adopted, Mexico and the U.S. face a common concern: the possibility that cheap Chinese-made electric vehicles could dominate a fast-growing market, undermining regional automakers such as General Motors (GM), Ford (F) and Tesla (TSLA) in the process.Imports from China have already begun south of the U.S. border: Imports of electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids rose 443.9% in value terms in the first quarter compared with the same period last year, according to data from S&P Global Market Intelligence.According to Reuters, one in 10 cars currently sold in Mexico is made by…
