On average, an American bank failed every three days between 1980 and 1994. The pace of failures reached similar heights in the immediate aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis, but since then failures have been much less common. The failures in recent days ended the second-longest stretch without a bank failure since the Great Depression. Those changes, including the safeguards imposed by the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act, were, largely, to the good.

The customers of Silicon Valley Bank, in particular, have been loudly unhappy to be described as the beneficiaries of a bailout because that´s an embarrassing thing to be; it contravenes the mythology of Silicon Valley as a scrappy frontier where people build the future without help, or oversight, from the government. The government does not want to describe its actions as a bailout because voters don´t like bailouts.

Novak Djokovic said he had no regrets about missing tournaments at Indian Wells and Miami due to his Covid-19 vaccination status but hoped that he would be allowed into the United States later this year for the US Open.

In the key northeastern region of Adamawa -- which could see the election of Nigeria's first woman governor -- the results were declared "inconclusive" as the number of voters unable to cast their ballot was greater than the margin between the two fro

Some now aspire to a society and government that looks beyond sectarianism and towards a brighter future, as the 2019 Tishreen movement, and the re-emergence of participants in 2021´s elections, showed. Yet the low turnout underscored that others have given up on democracy, thanks to those who boasted that they were bringing it to justify their war. It may be many more years before we fully reckon the effects of the catastrophe unleashed two decades ago. More than half of Iraqis are too young to remember life under Saddam Hussein.

WASHINGTON, March 23 (Reuters) - Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said on Thursday the United States was looking at ways to strengthen its sanctions against Iran, but acknowledged the sanctions had not resulted in the behavioral or policy changes Washington desires from Tehran.

Sanders is specifically targeting Mr. Bancel because his company worked with the Trump Administration´s Operation Warp Speed (OWS) to accelerate its vaccine development. Bancel apparently should have known better than to work with the government.

Canada and the United States also acknowledged "the serious long-term challenge to the international order posed by the People's Republic of China, including disruptive actions such as economic coercion, non-market policies and practices, and human rights abuses," the two countries said in a joint statement.

Two decades on from the beginning of the war, with the "shock and awe" assault of March 19, 2003, we are still fathoming the impact of the U.S.-led and U.K.-backed invasion. The body count and wider damage have not stopped rising since. When the 10th anniversary arrived, Islamic State (IS), birthed by the war´s fallout, had yet to make its frightening rise to establishing a "caliphate". It did not take long for anyone to realize that the Iraq war was the disaster that many had predicted; not much longer than it took to confirm that it was launched on a lie and that there were no weapons of mass destruction. Whatever relief or joy was felt by Iraqis at the fall of Saddam Hussein´s violent and oppressive regime, it was soon subsumed by the horror of what followed.

Pfizer chose to go it alone because "when you get money from someone, that always comes with strings," as CEO Albert Bourla explained in September 2020. Early in the Covid pandemic, Moderna received $900 million from OWS for trials to test its mRNA vaccine in partnership with the National Institutes of Health.

As a result, Pfizer has received more than a billion dollars more from the government than Moderna. If not for the Moderna-OWS cooperation, the vaccine rollout would have been much slower. Yet the Administration has consistently paid Pfizer $3 to $4 more per dose. Moderna´s vaccine has proven more durable and protective against severe illness than Pfizer´s in real-world studies.
