At the beginning of 2022, as the world entered the third year of the Covid-19 pandemic, over 307 million confirmed cases and 5.5 million confirmed deaths had been recorded globally—numbers smaller than the actual figures due to limitations both on testing and on attributing causes of deaths to the virus.[1] Even as progress is seemingly made against Covid-19's silent threat through the rapid development and circulation of vaccines and medical treatments, preventive measures, and an increasingly better scientific understanding of the virus, each successive wave of the pandemic has brought new challenges and uncertainty to the fore of the public policy agenda in every part of the world.
The Indo-Pacific is no exception to Covid-19's social and economic destruction, and the region has rarely left the headlines. From the virus's initial outbreak in China, to its disruptive impacts on not only the Olympics but also political leadership in Japan, to the tragedy of the Delta variant collapsing India's healthcare system, to supply chain disturbances throughout the Pacific, each country in the region has experienced and coped with the pandemic in its own way. As Covid-19 variants sweep around the world, healthcare diplomacy has become a global policy focus, one involving the distribution of masks, healthcare supplies, and vaccines both among developed states and between them and developing ones. The crisis has shined a light on resource inequities and competition, but at the same time it has also led to unprecedented demonstrations of generosity, scientific development, and cooperation.
The larger countries in the Indo-Pacific have received the lion's share of resources and media attention. Less visibly, the region's smaller and developing states have also seen their governance and public health systems unduly tested by the Covid-19 pandemic. This Asia Policy roundtable examines the government, public health, societal, economic, and international responses in some of these smaller states that are often outside the public spotlight. How have they responded to the pandemic? What prognoses do they face for overcoming the pandemic's challenges and returning to a more normal social and economic life? Essays in this roundtable address these questions and country-specific policy issues for Bangladesh, Cambodia, Malaysia, the Pacific Islands, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam.
As the essays collectively show, not all is as grim as it could be. Despite lacking the resources of larger nations, several states have so far managed relatively successfully to avoid the worst of Covid-19's health impacts through phases of movement restriction, closures, widespread societal adherence to preventive measures, and effective vaccine campaigns. Other states found that policies that initially worked well were subsequently less effective against the spread of the more contagious Delta variant. Overall, the virus and its variants have brought into relief the economic, public health, and sociopolitical costs for these vulnerable countries. For example, the pandemic has exposed healthcare system weaknesses in the Philippines and the Pacific Islands; underscored the importance of public trust in the contrasting cases of Vietnam and Papua New Guinea; left long-term economic scars in Malaysia, Thailand, and Bangladesh; and reinforced the growing weight of authoritarianism in Cambodia.
Although the challenge of responding to Covid-19 is a global one, the experiences of the countries affected are often uniquely local. It is important to observe not only how large countries manage the pandemic but also how smaller countries do as well and to assist with their efforts through vaccine and medical supply distribution. The World Health Organization has stated that "with global vaccine production now at nearly 1.5 billion doses per month, there is enough supply to achieve our targets, provided they are distributed equitably. This is not a supply problem; it's an allocation problem." [2] It is thus paramount that smaller states be observed, considered, and treated equally alongside their larger neighbors in the campaign to end the Covid-19 pandemic.

Triple Jeopardy: Refugees/Migrants/Palestinian Prisoners
[Prefatory Note: This post was published in a somewhat altered form in Transcend MediaService on April 20, 2020 under the title "Triple Jeopardy and the Plight of Palestinian Prisoners.]
Double Jeopardy for Refugees/Migrants
Recently reflecting on the plight of refugees fleeing war zones in the Middle East and migrants from sub-Saharan Africa and Central America I was struck by the analogy to 'double jeopardy.' As widely understood, double jeopardy is a procedural rule of criminal law that prohibits prosecution by a state of an individual more than once for the same crime. It is deservedly treated as a human right that protects persons from being harassed after judicial acquittal by repeated allegations of the same alleged crime. The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (1966) in Article 14(7) defines double jeopardy: "No one shall be liable to be tried or punished again for an offense for which he has already been finally convicted or acquitted in accordance with the law and penal procedure of each country." (There are exceptions for acquittals tainted by fraud, confessions by the accused, and the wording of the rule should be corrected for its gender bias implying that it is only 'men' who could be victimized by vindictive re-prosecution).
For some years, the images of violent border security associated with keeping masses of needy refugees or migrants from crossing international boundaries to reach more peaceful or affluent countries in Europe or North America is what prompted me to sense an analogy to the kind of ordeal that exists when someone wins an acquittal after a long, emotionally and economically costly trial, and is then confronted by a new indictment for essentially the same supposed criminal offense. In a well-administered democracy, the double jeopardy rule is taken for granted, and prevents such injustices from happening. But what of the world of refugees and migrants?
What made the double jeopardy comparison apt for me were these haunting images of doubling down on punishment of those who were not only innocent, but already victimized by circumstances beyond their control, and then again punished for acts that deserve empathy and accommodation, not punishment, if humanitarian values were extended to refugees/migrants. My existential premise, borne out by some experience, is that persons almost never leave their place of birth and family residence without overwhelming provocation, and are especially hesitant to use their small saving and meager borrowings to embark on a voyage to a distant land with a different language and culture. Most of us, even if dissatisfied with conditions in our native land or our personal circumstances will still not voluntarily depart from the familiarities of family and friends, and of language, traditions, and nationality. Only circumstances of grave danger such as presented by ravaged combat zones or resulting from grinding poverty found in societies that confront residents and entire communities with gray horizons of hopelessness that offer neither safety nor security, can induce most persons to so uproot themselves. In other words, the motivation underlying the emotional reality of the overwhelming majority of refugees and migrants is one of desperation, of grasping at straws and escaping doom. Of course, the small nomadic elites of adventurers, exiles, and expatriates are examples of persons leaving their home countries not from necessity, but in pursuit of the exotic and the paradisiac.
This sad depiction of the decision to flee to safety or to search for economic security is then generally accompanied by a treacherous and harrowing journey that often drains the traveler of his or her small savings. Many trips end with death and illness for many in the group, or perilous trips across stormy seas or barren deserts, only to be confronted by a coercive 'no' in the form of barbed wire, walls, detention centers, and even live ammunition if and when the destination is reached. To be placed in detention centers with long waits may be the best that can be hoped for by such forsaken souls, often including young children, that experience the depths of insecurity in their homeland, and also along the way that reaches a negative climax when and if the national goal is ever reached.
I am not suggesting that this refugee/migrant experience is double jeopardy in a legal sense, but it seems to possess the same ingredients of the unjust repetition of indictment and prosecution, itself punitive, that is prohibited as a part of civilized behavior in a society responsive to the rule of law, and protective of human rights. It is a kind of morally grounded, culturally and spiritually debasing, and often life-threatening duplication of criminal prosecution without any account being taken of human dignity and fundamental innocence of those being victimized, or the ordeal of struggling against a criminal allegation.
And yet, moral outrage or a call for compassion does not acknowledge the complexity of the issues raised. Unlike the individuals accused of the same crime a second time, the refugee/migrant does not, as such, pose real threats to the countries that are being expected to act as benign hosts or to extend hospitality to strangers in need. This is notto say that a country does not have the right to deny entry to those with criminal records or contagious diseases, provided due process is accorded, and similarly have authority to insist that those who enter do legally.
We live in a state-centric world where international boundaries define the outer limits of community, which has not changed fundamentally no matter how much we hear cosmopolitan sermonizing and ecologically persuasive calls for planetary identity. In such a framework, the citizenry of a country feel threatened in various ways by the influx of large numbers of strangers, especially if their racial and cultural characteristics clash with that of the country asked to show hospitality or grant asylum. The reality of this resistance is producing extremisms of scapegoating and xenophobia, which make moderates search for compromises in the form of requiring lawful entry, quotas, job training, and language and civilizational educational resources. Given the scale of the challenge, and the unlikely emergence of greater receptivity, the main line of an effective and humane response structure should be a large investment in overcoming the conditions in foreign countries that give rise to massive displacement and large numbers of persons desperate to find more sustainable life conditions. Overcoming double jeopardy in these settings depends on a self-interested globalization of responsibility for achieving peace and security, as well as lifting the curse of poverty, and this requires the drastic reform of the way the benefits of neoliberal globalization are distributed much more equitably than in the past.
Triple Jeopardy for Palestinian Prisoners at a Time of Pandemic
This metaphor for layers of unjust suffering initially occurred to me while preparing a ZOOM presentation on the abuse of Palestinian prisoners in the context of the health dangers associated with the COVID-19 challenge. Such dangers were present for Palestinians under pre-pandemic conditions, but greatly aggravated by Israeli failures to mitigate the additional and aggravated risks that come from keeping around 5,000 Palestinian prisoners in overcrowded prisons where some of the guards and security personnel were reported as testing positive for the virus yet continued to interact with prisoners without prescribed personal protective gear (PPE), and where insufficient hospital and medical capabilities existed in the event that the disease started to spread. This overall sub-par situation was further accentuated in relation to an. estimated 172 child prisoners, many elderly and disabled prisoners, and almost all inmates incarcerated for nonviolent security offenses that should never have been criminalized because of falling within the scope of a right of resistance possessed by persons living under an apartheid regime, which is itself a serious violation of international criminal law. The right to resist Israeli apartheid, at least within the limits of international law regulating violence by reference to choice of targets and other considerations. Israel has not accepted WHO guidelines or a variety of humanitarian appeals by respected NGOs to release at least 'low-risk' prisoners as well as those with 'underlying conditions,' children, and the elderly.
Taking these considerations into account the 'triple jeopardy' framing seems justified to underscore the layers of injustice endured by Palestinian prisoners at this time. As the Palestinian writer, Ramzy Baroud, writes, "..all of Palestine has been in a state of 'lockdown' since the late 1940s when Israel became a state and the Palestinian homeland was erased by Zionist colonialists with the support of Western benefactors." To drive the point home, Baroud adds, "In Palestine, we don't call our imprisonment a lockdown, but a 'military occupation' and apartheid." [See Baroud, "A Palestinian Guide to Surviving a Quarantine: On Faith, Humour, and 'Dutch Candy,'" Middle East Monitor, April 5, 2020]. In effect, Baroud is insisting that all Palestinians are enduring an unjust 'imprisonment' that has lasted for more than 71 years with no signs of abatement, and is itself a punishment of individuals of a certain ethnicity for the 'crime' of existing.
On this basis, the criminalization of resistance, including nonviolent and symbolic forms, extending even to poem and poets (for example, Dareen Tatour, and her crime, the poem "Resist, my people, resist them"), has resulted in harsh confinement in Israeli prisons, including reliance on such legally dubious mechanisms as 'administrative detention' (imprisoning without charges or any due process for extended periods) and the unlawful transfer of prisoners from detention in Occupied Palestine to prisons in Israel [behind the green line], andd out of reach of family members). In effect, the imprisoning of any Palestinian in Israeli jails is Double Jeopardy because it puts Palestinians already punishment by lockdown, displacement, and dispossession behind bars because they dared to assert their right of resistance.
The allegation of Triple Jeopardy arises from the failure to suspend or mitigate prison condition in light of the Coronavirus Pandemic, and the related failure to take responsible steps to protect those so confined from contracting a highly contagious and potentially lethal disease. A virtual death sentence hangs over every single Palestinian prisoner for as long as the pandemic lasts, and poses especially acute risks with respect to particularly vulnerable categories of Palestinians living in prisons.
Toward Solutions?
It is not possible to set forth detailed proposals to overcome double and triple jeopardy as depicted. I will only indicate the vectors that point in a direction sensitive to practical and normative aspects of the challenge.
For Double Jeopardy: seek to accommodate an ethos of hospitality and empathy with a major commitment at the UN and by national governments to take steps to remove the conditions of mass desperation prompting large numbers to leave their homelands, an undertaking ideally funded by a globally administered tax on luxury goods, financial transactions, fossil fuels, and transnational air travel.
For Triple Jeopardy: release all Palestinian political prisoners immediately, with a sense of urgency, and commit to ending apartheid as the essential step toward a sustainable and just peace based on the equality of rights of Jews and Palestinians.

There are 25,000 People dying of Hunger and Malnutrition Every Day, 750,000 Every Month.
It's almost a joke to see the Land of the Free and Brave terrified of a virus with such a significantly smaller Death Count.
Now that that poverty is coming to the affluent Nations, it could reasonably be thought of as a form of Divine Judgment.

Dear Professor Falk,
A more humane refugee policy could and should be formulated and funded in the way you propose. But it still wouldn't eliminate the root causes of the problem. We, as 'westerners', can't do too much directly about,e.g., the tyranny of Assad, or the death-penalty records of Iran and China. But we could stop vying with them in the cruelty department.
Many (most?) of the refugees in the world today are on the road because of policies directly traceable to Washington DC, and to the profit lines of Raytheon, Halliburton, et.al. Honduras and Yemen would not be what they are today without such bloodsuckers. Nor would Israel, without its welfare checks from US taxpayers.
In addition to your proposals, my own wish list would be: draw back from many of the world's quarrels – the US has no business as a belligerent in Iran vs Saudi Arabia, Israel/Palestine, India/Pakistan. Until we do so, the coveted role of disinterested peacemaker, of the World's Policeman, will remain beyond ludicrous. We need to wash our hands, carefully, of the blood of Sissi, MBS, Trump, and the rest, as we get to work.
Richard Falk April 25, 2020 at 9:52 pm #
I agree with your last paragraph. U.S. intervention and Euro-American carbon
emissions generate many of the refugees (esp. ME and Central America) & and
migrants from drought afflicted regions of Africa.

Dear Professor Falk, Dr Rashid Butter has important message. I hope you get to watch some of his messages that are currently censored – he is under some harsh prosecution and hardships that are coming from some wicked. But truly, to those wicked I speak psychical death to their brains – they be accursed in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. I swear by Holy altar and all things on it, and I curses them in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Curse of Destruction upon them – All of them involved wicked. All. Roman Catholic Charismatic Church will not put up with depopulation.

"Double Jeopardy" implies that no person shall be tried and punished for an offense for which he was acquitted, or convicted.. However, double jeopardy does not apply to the serial offender who repeatedly trespasses on the rights of others, each trespass being a separate and distinct offense, triable and punishable separately. Palestinians are victimized by self-appointed leadership, who rejected partition under UNGAR 181 and subsequent offers of negotiation for statehood within the context of the two state solution, making them "perpetual refugees." Descendants of the original refugees of 1948-49 have no nexus to Israel, are victimized by the governments of Lebanese and, Syrian "Apartheid," denying them citizenship, educational, employment and professional opportunities, available to the citizens of those nations.
In contrast, Jewish refugees of Algiers, Aleppo, Baghdad, Cairo, Damascus and other Arab cities, where their families had lived for generations, were expelled and robbed of their homes and assets without compensation, following Israel's victorious "War of Independence." They were resettled in Israel without U.N. funding, or a U.N. agency specific to their cause. They neither seek, nor assert a "right of return" to their former homelands, to which their descendants have no nexus. See:
Note that the founding documents of both the P.L.O. and Hamas call for the "ethnic cleansing" of Israel's 75% majority Jewish population.
The Westphalian nation-state provides security, sovereignty, territorial integrity and political independence for the Israeli community (See: e.g. UNSCR 242/338), while the Palestinians having repeatedly rejected statehood for 72 years, are incapable of self-government. "Cosmopolitans (Neo-Marxist anti-Semitic speak for Jews)," are just as entitled to self-determination in. their ancestral homeland, as are the Irish, Japanese, French, Chinese and Russians.
Scapegoating, xenophobia, and arrogant, greedy, self-centered sense of entitlement of the land of others, are the generators of "wars of aggression," such as the Third Reich seeking "Lebensraum" to the east and the Arab League's wars against Israel in 1948-49, 1967 and 1973. All nation-states regulate immigration, prohibiting the entry of criminals, subversives, and fifth columnists.
The Israeli government cooperates with P.A. "President for Life" Abbas (now in the 16th year of the four year term to which he was elected in 2005) and the self-appointed rulers of Gaza to control COVID-19, yet such cooperation is disparaged by Abbas, who accuses Israel of importing the virus. Perhaps, Israel should temporarily suspend that cooperation tp produce a change in attitude in the un-appreciative Abbas. One solution to overcrowded prisons is to refrain from acts resulting in incarceration; many criminal offenders serve life sentences on the "installment plan," committing serial offenses leading to serial prison sentences. Many of these begin. as juvenile offenders, graduating to adult criminal sentences.
Israelis, like post-Apartheid South Africans, are entitled to majority rule within their borders, and to resist imposition of a minority, supplemented by illegal
immigration, "Arab Supremacist Apartheid Regime," not unlike the former South African "White Supremacist Apartheid Regime," which ruled over a 90% Black and Mixed Race majority. Arab Supremacy, like White Supremacy, is racist, repugnant and a denial of majority rule.
There is no "State of Palestine," a fictional entity consisting of two feuding "non-state" terrorist enclaves on either side of Israel. As Palestinian self-appointed leaders have consistently rejected statehood within the context of the two state solution for 72 years, by default, Israel has become the "single state" solution, with the sole remaining issue being whether it will be majority ruled, or whether it will be subjected to rule by a minority "Arab Supremacist Apartheid Regime." As a nation-state member of the U.N., Israel may invoke Article 51 of the U.N. Charter recognizing an "inherent right of individual, or collective self-defense." The fictional "State of Palestine," being a non state entity, holding mere "observer status" in the U.N., may not invoke that right. Thus, it is the Israelis, not the Palestinians, who are "resisting" foreign imperialism.
A significant solution to the Palestinian refugee problem would be dissolution of the UNRWA and the merger of its functions into the U.N. High Commission for Refugees, terminating their "permanent refugee status" and allowing them to be resettled outside of the Middle-East. Many refugees, whom have escaped from UNRWA, have successfully resettled in Canada, South America, Australia and elsewhere, becoming residents and eventually citizens of their new homelands. They should be allowed to "vote with their feet," as hundreds of thousands of refugees have previously done, rather than being held hostage for a fictional nation, which does not, and never will come into existence.

Excitement builds for Derry's St Patrick's Day Spring Carnival celebrations
Derry is set to welcome spring with open arms this weekend in a cacophony of color and spectacle
Aisling McCallion
St. Patrick's Day Spring Carnival, in Derry. Derry City and Strabane District Council
The 2019 Spring Carnival celebrations will be a vibrant celebration of children and young people with a host of entertainment for all the family over St Patrick's weekend.
The theme of the parade will be Tír na nÓg (The Land of Youth) in celebration of Council's Youth19 programme - a year dedicated to young people aged 12 – 24 where Council will work with young people and partners to promote their voices, needs, priorities, and rights.
The festivities will include music, dance, food and culture and will climax with the Spring Carnival Parade on Sunday, March 17th when over 800 street performers and dancers will weave their way through the historic city center.
The parade, delivered by the North West Carnival Initiative, will look back at the story of Tír na nÓg and feature depictions of youth in myth and legend both in the Celtic tradition and in the many diverse cultures across the world.
The festival will also feature the Ubuntu Global festival, a celebration of diversity and inclusion through traditional music, song and dance from around the world.
Music features heavily in the programme with young people performing On Street Trad in the streets and squares of the city. Spring Sounds in Guildhall Square will showcase live traditional music and dance while the Forever Young stage inside the Guildhall will host a traditional Irish céilí.
The music for both stages has been programmed by Greater Shantallow Community Arts in preparation for the city hosting Fleadh Cheoil Dhoire in May.
For those seeking a more relaxed environment, the Peace Garden will feature an enchanting performance of 'Away with the Fairies' by the In Your Space Circus troop.
Full details of the Spring Carnival are available at www.derrystrabane.com/springcarnival.

But a lot of us remember the day when it was a big deal to draw into one, especially your first choice. This year will be a reality check for some. And it could well be the new normal for a few years to come.
Also picked up were the comedies Guys with Kids, Go On, Save Me, The New Normal, 1600 Penn and Animal Practice. Fox has tied-in three comedies including It's Messy from Universal Television, 20th Century Fox's Ben & Kate and The Goodwin Games.
Like so many holidays and celebrations, this Mother's Day is difficult for Gale Turner as she struggles to accept her new normal. Her 25-year-old son, Jordan, has been in the Bergen County jail in Hackensack since his arrest in February 2011.
It has been a transformative offseason for the Broncos thanks to Manning's arrival and Klis will let us know about how everyone is feeling as the team gets used to their new normal. We'll then move onto the 49ers with Matt Maiocco of CSN Bay Area.
"The New Normal" from "Glee"and "American Horror Story"creator Ryan Murphy. It's about a gay couple (Andrew Rannells and Justin Bartha) and the surrogate mother to their expanding family (Georgia King). The comedy features Ellen Barkin and NeNe Leakes.
"These actions are disgraceful, and further remind taxpayers that there is a new normal in government, and taxpayer-funded union representation is not part of it." John Williamson, president of FOP Lodge 1 in Camden, offered a different view.

"Parks and Rec" and "The Office" stay on the night, and the Ryan Murphy/Ali Adler comedy "TheNew Normal" gets the post-"Office" slot -- which doesn't mean what it once did but is still the safest harbor for a new comedy on the network.

Palisades Tahoe Chosen as New Name for California Ski Resort
Resort reveals new name ahead of 2021-22 winter season
Posted On : September 13, 2021 By : Matt Traub

The ski resort that hosted the 1960 Olympic Winter Games in California has been rebranded to Palisades Tahoe, bringing both mountains of the former Squaw Valley Alpine Meadows together under one unified name. The move came after a 2020 commitment by the resort to rename the destination following research into the historical and current usage of the word "squaw" and discussions with the local Washoe Tribe.
"It is inspiring that after seven decades in operation, a company as storied and established as this resort can still reflect and adjust when it is the necessary and right thing to do," said Palisades Tahoe President and Chief Operating Officer Dee Byrne. "This name change reflects who we are as a ski resort and community — we have a reputation for being progressive and boundary-breaking when it comes to feats of skiing and snowboarding. We have proven that those values go beyond the snow for us. It's an incredibly exciting time to be part of Palisades Tahoe and after more than 10 years at the resort, I'm honored to be leading our team into this new era."
The Palisades Tahoe name honors two of the resort's most legendary arenas, one on the Olympic Valley side and one on the Alpine Meadows side. The new logo aligns the two unique mountains that make up Palisades Tahoe with the outline of an eagle, a nod to the sacred Washoe symbol and to the resort's freeskiing roots.
The renaming process began last year with a research and discovery process before the resort team conducted numerous survey, collecting more than 3,000 responses, and held focus groups in the community, including local residents, longtime pass holders, athletes who grew up on these slopes, resort employees and members of the local Washoe tribe.
The resort will begin implementing the new name and branding immediately, but expects the full changeover to be a multi-year process. The base area village on the Olympic Valley side will be known as The Village at Palisades Tahoe and Palisades Tahoe plans to debut new names for the Squaw One and Squaw Creek chairlifts to be selected with input by the Washoe Tribe, Resort at Squaw Creek and the public.
Palisades Tahoe has begun building a partnership with the Washoe Tribe of Nevada and California. This summer, the resort launched the Washoe Cultural Tour series, which offers guests a view of the mountains through the eyes of the Washoe people. Palisades Tahoe will install a Washoe exhibit at High Camp with tribal artifacts and the groups are also exploring future programming centered on making skiing more accessible to Washoe Tribe members.
"Anyone who spends time at these mountains can feel the passion of our dedicated skiers and riders," said Ron Cohen, former president and chief operating officer of Palisades Tahoe. "However, no matter how deep, meaningful, and positive these feelings are and no matter how much our guests don't intend to offend anyone, it is not enough to justify continuing to operate under a name that is deeply offensive to indigenous people across North America. We were compelled to change the name because it's the right thing to do, especially for the generations yet to come, who will grow up without having to use a slur to identify the place where they chase their dreams down the mountain. We know how much people love this place, and so we spent more than a year making sure that we were doing right by the community in choosing a name that would honor the past and reach out to the future."

The Presidential Committee on the Audit of Recovered Public Assets yesterday told President Muhammad Buhari in the State House that it had recovered N769 billion.
Making the disclosure at a meeting with the president, the Chairman of the three-man committee, Mr. Olufemi Lijadu, said the committee was mandated to audit recovered government assets by government agencies.
This is coming as President Buhari has called on the National Assembly to pass Proceeds of Crimes Bill, saying it will strengthen the administration's asset recovery mission.
According to Lijadu, the committee obtained access to records, including bank statements and other information from government agencies, banks and other organisations in relation to recovered cash and non-cash public assets.
In his remarks, Buhari pointed out that asset recovery was an integral part of the war against corruption.
He called on the National Assembly to pass Proceeds of Crimes Bill before, saying it will strengthen the administration's asset recovery mission.
"I therefore encourage the National Assembly to take necessary steps to pass the bill," he said.
In his submission, Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, gave a mini breakdown of the recovered assets.
He said: "The federal government recovered N13.8 billion from tax evaders in May 2018.
"In May 2018, the government paid N439.2million to about 14 whistle blowers who gave specific information on tax evasion.
"Again, N3.8 million, $378million 27,800 pounds were equally recovered from public officials.

Council poised to extend moratorium on Aurora-Licton Springs commercial development
On 09/19/2018 By Kevin Schofield In neighborhoods, zoning
This morning, the Council voted out of committee an ordinance that would extend for another six months the temporary moratorium on several forms of commercial development in the Aurora-Licton Springs Urban Village.
Two weeks ago, during a required public hearing on the ordinance, the Council heard strong feedback on both sides of the issue, enough that they delayed voting the measure out of committee.
The intent of the moratorium is to prevent additional "heavy commercial" or light industrial businesses in the neighborhood in advance of an expected rezone of the urban village favoring residential and mixed-use zoning. That rezone, however, is tied up in the larger MHA city-wide zoning process, which has ground to a halt pending an appeal of the final Environmental Impact Statement for the effort.
Those in opposition to the moratorium point out that city officials, while quick to point out the places where they don't want big-box stores, warehouses, used-car lots, and other heavy commercial activity, have not been clear about where they want to encourage such businesses to land that would make them accessible to customers — and as such they claim they are being chased out of the city. Council members Johnson, Herbold and O'Brien acknowledged the truth in that statement, blaming the pause in the MHA process for the lack of conversations on that topic. While all three of them support extending the moratorium, Herbold however pushed her colleagues not to wait until the MHA process restarts (December at the earliest) to begin to discuss the issue with stakeholders. Johnson and O'Brien agreed at least in part, suggesting that OPCD prioritize the Aurora-Licton Springs Urban Village in its queue of "community planning" sessions.
Notably absent from the deliberations on the moratorium extension is Council member Juarez, who represents District 5 and was the primary proponent for the original moratorium.
In the end, the three Council members voted the moratorium out of committee, setting it up for final approval on September 24.

These 5 teams will seriously challenge NBA champion Los Angeles Lakers next season
Duane Rankin
The Los Angeles Lakers are champions once again.
No. 17 with LeBron James, and Anthony Davis leading the way. If those two stay healthy and the others players keep embracing their roles, they could very well repeat.
This title will have an asterisk by it, but one the Lakers can wear proudly because no other NBA champion has endured a season like this.
Season stoppage. COVID-19 pandemic.
Social injustice. NBA restart. Bubble life.
They're the last team standing.
Kobe Bryant would've been proud of the way they won it, too.
FYI: I picked the Lakers in six games. Not earthshattering. Just saying.
How next season will unfold remains an unknown.
Looks like it'll start in January, but will fans be allowed to watch in arenas or will the NBA return to a bubble environment?
With the way the COVID-19 pandemic has altered NFL and college football, the NBA might stick to what it knows works. However the league proceeds, the Lakers will enter the 2020-21 season as the defending NBA champions and favorite to repeat.
Hall of Famer Magic Johnson guaranteed Monday morning on ESPN's First Take his L.A. Lakers will win back-to-back titles.
Several challengers will have a say in that.
The Dallas Mavericks have the next great superstar in Luka Doncic. The Portland Trail Blazers will return healthy with Damian Lillard leading the way.
The Utah Jazz aren't going anywhere and the Golden State Warriors, with Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson coming back full strength, will reestablish themselves as a force.
That's just in the West.
The Toronto Raptors are always going to contend with their team ball. The Philadelphia 76ers might have the right coach in Doc Rivers to get them playing up to their potential.
And the Miami Heat have their leader in Jimmy Butler. They overachieved to reach the Finals and will have a renewed hunger to finish the job next season.
However, these five teams will give the Lakers their greatest challenge in 2020-21.
1. Los Angeles Clippers
Yes, they blew a 3-1 lead to the Denver Nuggets when the whole world wanted to see them face the Lakers in the conference finals.
That collapse ultimately got Rivers fired.
The talent is there. Kawhi Leonard and Paul George are two of the game's best, but came up small when it mattered most.
Those two should take that Game 7 meltdown so personal, they should be on a mission to win a championship.
2. Denver Nuggets
Their dynamic duo, Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic, is young and special.
They have a great supporting cast. Young. Talented. Michael Porter Jr. is a star waiting to erupt. More importantly, they have the character, resolve and grit to be champions.
You don't come back from 3-1 deficits twice in the same playoff year without those vital intangibles.
Denver is on the traditional path right now. The Nuggets went from reaching the conference semifinals in 2018-19 to the conference finals this season.
The next step is the NBA Finals. Got to go through the Lakers and Clippers, but the Nuggets are capable of getting that done.
3. Brooklyn Nets
Kevin Durant has been stewing for an entire year and change, seeing so many other players shine after he was an injury away from winning three straight titles and three straight Finals MVP awards.
If he comes back even close to the player he was before the Achilles injury, the Nets are going to be scary good next season. Pairing up with Kyrie Irving should be special.
Caris LeVert was a star in the bubble. He'll be the third or fourth option on this team.
Steve Nash is the wild card.
Never been a head coach. The Nets will make the playoffs, but how he balances what he wants to do and what his players do best will be key to determining how far they go.
They may have one too many similar players, but may also have perhaps the most talent in the NBA.
Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, Kemba Walker, Marcus Smart and Gordon Hayward are as good as it gets as a collection of talent. The Celtics may be a knockdown shooter away from taking that final step to reach the finals, but who is their leader?
Who is their Jimmy Butler or LeBron James? Brown and Tatum could be, and Walker, being a point guard, should be.
Smart probably is that guy, but he's not one of their top three players.
Time for the Celtics to have a long conversation to define roles or they'll continue to have all the talent in the world without a championship.
5. Milwaukee Bucks
Hard to pick them over Miami, but having the two-time reigning MVP should mean something, right?
Giannis Antetokounmpo is a great player, tremendous talent, but what's scary is he can be so much better. With two MVPs, his sole focus should be winning a championship and improving his weaknesses to make that happen.
Post-up game. Core strength on defense. Three-point shooting.
If Milwaukee is on the same page, it has to demand more from the others and Antetokounmpo. Like the Clippers, the Bucks should be be on a mission to get to the Finals after failing to do so the last two years despite having the league's best record.

Bornstein Law Victory: Jury Trial - Alameda County Superior Court
Another win in our column after our client prevailed in a jury trial. An unauthorized subletter harassed and forced the master tenant out of the rental unit. When the landlord discovered these events, a process server was dispatched to the residence and she was then falsely imprisoned by the occupant. A harrowing case but one that ended in a successful outcome.
Bornstein Law secures a judgment in a forcible detainer action
When there is no tenancy established, occupants who are given a temporary place to stay must leave when the owner asks them to.
The leaning tower of San Francisco
It's been widely reported that the sinking Millennium Tower has been mired with structural issues, but does that mean that tenants in the embattled building can stop paying rent? We successfully argue no - the rent must be paid
Nuisance eviction during the height of the pandemic
A tenant vindictively ran water all day and night to drive up the landlord's utility bills. We sent a clear signal that COVID-related tenant protections do not give residents the license to cause mischief and this argument held water.
We take on the Oakland Rent Board, argue that a rent increase is permissible during this condo conversion and courts agree
Under Costa-Hawkins, condos are generally exempt from local rent control rules, but there was a game of semantics. After tenants balked at a rent increase, the courts sided with our interpretation of the law and agreed that rents could be raised.
Through a forcible detainer action, property owners can remove occupants who overstay their welcome
It's not uncommon for owners to give family members or friends a soft place to land, but what happens when a guest refuses to leave? Although it may be gut-wrenching, there is legal action that can be taken to transition the "licensee" out of the premises.

Chostakovitch, Dimitri


In paleo-Christian art there were two ways to show Christ in the Ascension: rising in a mandorla, as in the first picture at right, or striding upward as if on a mountain, as in the second.
In this tradition, angels raise the mandorla while Mary stands directly below, flanked by the apostles. Usually she holds her hands in prayer – either "orant" in the earlier images (as at right) or pressed together, as in later ones (example). The apostles usually look up toward the mandorla. Occasionally Saints Peter and Paul will be distinguishable among them (as at right and in this fresco), even though in Acts Paul enters the narrative a good deal later. Only a few examples have the admonishing angels.
In most of these images Christ blesses the viewer with his right hand. Many will have him enthroned within the mandorla, and his left hand will sometimes holds a scroll or book (example), Simpler variations may leave out the people below the mandorla or even the angels (example).
Images where Christ's ascent is pictured as a climb to Heaven go back to at least the beginning of the 5th century. In them he either climbs an "actual" mountain or is simply pictured as if he were walking upward. This necessitates posing him in profile, so there can be no blessing of the viewer. Instead his right hand reaches up, and in some images the Father's hand reaches down.
This iconography is much less common than the mandorla tradition. It does, however, influence Giotto's Ascension frescos at Assisi and in the Scrovegni Chapel.
Medieval works sometimes follow a third tradition in which one sees only Christ's feet and the hem of his garment as he is taken into the clouds. These images reflect Acts 1:9, "a cloud received him out of their sight"; they usually have the Apostles looking up at their disappearing Lord. The third picture at right is an example. As in most of the mandorla images, the feet are bare. Mary is often displaced from the center of the composition to the left side (example) or left out entirely, as at right.

In a crossbite, the upper teeth sit inside the lower teeth, which may cause misaligned jaw growth, fractured teeth, abnormal tooth wear and jaw joint problems.
Crowding occurs when teeth have insufficient room to erupt. This can cause the teeth to be positioned in the wrong place and the wrong angle, resulting in chipped and worn front teeth. It also makes it more difficult to clean and teeth and gums.
Dental midlines that do not match are evident when the two upper front teeth and the two lower front teeth do no line up. This may negatively impact proper jaw and dental function. It is usually caused by the bite being off on one, or both sides.
Proper chewing is impacted by an openbite in which the upper and lower front teeth that do not touch or overlap one another. Openbites may be caused by habits such as thumb sucking or tongue thrusting. Overbites cause excessive wear of the contacting teeth, jaw joint problems and a narrow upper jawbone. Correction of severe cases in growing children is easy, requiring the use of a simple appliance. The correction of a severe open bite in an adult may require jaw surgery.
In an overbite, the upper front teeth extend out over the lower front teeth. In a severe case this can cause the lower front teeth to traumatize the gums behind the upper front teeth.
Protrusion is characterized by the upper front teeth extending too far in front of the lower teeth. Several causes for this condition exist: excessive spaces between the upper front teeth, crowding between the lower front teeth, or deficient growth of the lower jawbone. Treatment of this condition is directed toward correcting the causitive element.
Spacing problems may be caused by missing teeth, a tongue which pushes the teeth outward, small teeth, an improper bite or a very wide jawbone.
An underbite can be caused by excessive growth of the lower jawbone or insufficient growth of the upper jawbone. This can result in the lower front teeth being in front of the upper front teeth. Since an underbite is often a growth imbalance, it can become more pronounced as the patient grows.
Orthodontic problems caused by excessive or insufficient jawbone growth are best and usually corrected when the patient is growing. A variety of devices can be used by the orthodontist to change the width of the upper jaw, increase or decrease upper jaw length, or increase lower jaw length. After jaw growth has been corrected, the orthodontist is able to move the teeth into their proper places.

The South Fraser Blog: March 25, 2019 Council Meeting Notes: Council supports $10-a-day child care. George Massey Tunnel update.
March 25, 2019 Council Meeting Notes: Council supports $10-a-day child care. George Massey Tunnel update.
Last night at the Langley City council meeting, there were two delegations. A delegation is a way for an individual or organization to appear before council, and is time-limited to five minutes.
The first delegation was from the Coalition of Child Care Advocates of BC in support of $10-a-day child care. The presenters noted that currently it can cost between $795 to $859 for children up to the age of 5 to receive child care in Langley. This is not affordable for most families.
The presenters stated that early child care is critically important because most families today have both parents working to make ends meet. The presenters said that there is both social and economic benefits to providing universal $10-a-day child care to all people in BC, no matter their family income.
The people presenting also noted the importance of providing quality child care, and its direct link to adult health, education, and social outcomes. Basically, if a child is supported before the age of five, as an adult, they are more likely to be happy, healthy, and prosperous.
The Early Development Instrument (EDI) is a metric that was developed at UBC which quantifies the mental and physical well-being of children at the age of five. The results in Langley City are troubling. Children that live north of the Nicomekl River in Langley City have some of the most vulnerable EDI metrics in BC.

By providing high-quality, $10-a-day child care, the presenters stated that it would improve the EDI metric for children in Langley City.
The Coalition of Child Care Advocates of BC was looking for Langley City council to support $10-a-day child care. Council unanimously approved a motion in support. Implementing $10-a-day child care is the responsibility of the provincial government.
The second delegation to council was by representatives from the BC Ministry of Transportations and Infrastructure about their plans for the George Massey crossing. The current provincial government cancelled the former government's $3.5 billion, 10-lane George Massey Bridge. The current government is now looking at alternatives to improving the movement of people and goods along that corridor.
They will be seeking feedback from local and regional governments, First Nations, other stakeholders, and the general public over the next few months. They are proposing to do some immediate tunnel and road works this summer, with other interim changes starting in the summer of 2020.
Representatives from the Ministry were looking for direct feedback from members of council last night, so I read the following to them.
The originally proposed 10-lane bridge was a $3.5 billion project. To put that into perspective, building SkyTrain from King George to Langley City is a $2.9 billion project.
According to the latest information from TransLink which is the 2011 trip survey, less than 5% of all trips go between Surrey/North Delta and Richmond/South Delta. In Langley, it is 2% of trips.
Over 80% of trips are within North Delta, Surrey, and Langley.
For a long time, our transportation system was focused on moving cars and trucks. I'm happy to see that we are now focusing on the most efficient way of moving people and goods by investing in walk, cycling, transit, and other innovative methods for goods movement such as short-sea shipping.
I'm happy that the provincial government in reviewing this project, and I hope you view it through a multimodal lens.
I also hope that the province looks at the traffic pre- and post-toll removal on the Port Mann Bridge when reviewing the project, and considers the information in the Mayors' Council Decongestion Pricing Report.
Tomorrow, I'll be posting about other items that were on Monday night's council agenda.

In general, the goal of patients who schedule eye exams is to obtain a prescription for eyeglasses, contact lenses or both. Others seek to maintain healthy vision and head off eye problems before they start. Standard eye exams involve a series of tests that use professional equipment to measure visual acuity and eye health, as well as diagnose common eye disorders. However, there are certain conditions that a regular eye exam does not test for, such as binocular vision dysfunction or double vision. Symptoms of double vision can indicate a greater problem, but most eye care professionals do not know what to look for.
Binocular vision dysfunction (BVD) can cause extreme discomfort if not treated properly. BVD is caused by a misalignment of the eyes, which can lead those who suffer from it to experience symptoms such as headaches and dizziness, motion sickness, anxiety and sensitivity to light. With binocular vision dysfunction, reading becomes difficult as words appear to blend together and swim on the page. Double vision symptoms may also occur, resulting in deep frustration and even a fear of being in public spaces for the person suffering from BVD. To make matters worse, these symptoms are frequently misdiagnosed as migraine disorders, vertigo or sinus headaches.
The frequency, intensity and type of symptoms vary from person to person, and can be triggered by sudden movements such as standing up too quickly, driving fast around curves or even just riding in the passenger seat of a car. If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, a neurovisual exam is necessary to properly check your eyes for any small misalignments.
During a comprehensive neurovisual exam, a neurovisual specialist looks for the slight eye misalignments that are typically missed during a regular eye exam. This type of exam is extremely thorough, and can take two to three hours to complete. Specialized aligning prismatic lenses are used to correct these misalignments, resulting in a reduction or, in some cases, an elimination of symptoms.
At the Neuro Visual Center of New York, we provide comprehensive neurovisual exams for our patients, with additional office visits to adjust prescriptions. Our physicians, Dr. Cheryl Israeloff and Dr. Marissa Zimmerman, have been specially trained in the field of Neuro Visual Optometry and will conduct a series of extensive tests to check for any misalignments. To schedule your appointment at the Neuro Visual Center of New York, give us a call today at (516) 224-4888.
Hi – I would like to be examined, but live in Dallas, TX. Can you refer someone in my area or do I need to come see you? I have many of the symptoms you describe for BVD. Thank you for your help.
There are a couple of doctors in Texas that can evaluate you. Please visit the Vision Specialists of Michigan website there is a list of doctors and a map to find the closest to you.
