Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
The combi is the real public transport of Botswana. Cramped, fast, loud, and driven by men who treat the road as a polite suggestion. Every Motswana has a combi story involving an aggressive driver, a route that changed mid-journey, and the universal hand signal for "stop here, rra." The combi does not wait and neither does anyone in it.
You admire the Tahitian imperial pigeon, colorful parrotfish, and green sea turtle inhabiting French Polynesian waters and islands. You find that locals commonly keep pigs, chickens, and coconut crabs alongside dogs and cats. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
You recognize Panamanian coffee, particularly Geisha coffee from the Boquete region, which commands premium prices at auctions worldwide. You know that this coffee represents Panama's mountainous terroir and the craftsmanship of generations of growers who have established it as one of the world's finest.
