Taguig City Government grants Gratuity Pay to Contract of Service (COS) and Job Order (JO) workers
The City Government of Taguig released a P3,000 Gratuity Pay to all Contract of Service (COS) and Job Order (JO) workers for their tireless and whole-hearted service amidst the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
The gratuity pay was granted to Contract of Service (COS) and Job Order (JO) workers based on their length of service in the city. COS and JO workers who rendered service for two (2) months to less than 3 months received P1,000, those who have rendered service for three (3) months or more received P2,000, and those who have rendered service for four (4) months or more received P3,000.
As Contract of Service (COS) and Job Order (JO) workers do not have employee-employer relationships, the benefits regular employees such as Government Service Insurance System (GSIS), PAG-IBIG, and other incentives are not available to them. However, the local government recognizes the integral role of their 5,000 plus workers in the effective implementation of programs, projects, and activities of the city.
"Our COS and JO employees played a huge part in the implementation of our programs, projects, and activities. Lalo na sa kasagsagan ng 2020 kung kailan talagang naging agresibo ang pag-prevent at pag-suppress ng COVID-19 sa lungsod," said Mayor Lino Cayetano.
Mayor Lino extends his heartfelt gratitude to all government workers for their effort in making Taguig City consistently among the cities with the lowest active cases in the country. The Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) has even cited Taguig as a 'model city' in terms of cooperation, unity, and execution while developing effective programs in combating COVID-19.
Last March 2020, the city distributed COVID Hazard Pay to all employees who reported to work while the Enhanced Community Quarantine was in full implementation.

Great Barrier Reef in Australia needs protection from dying. Scientists are searching for a solution and brightening the clouds above the reef may prove as the fittest approach.
There are very few people on earth who are not familiar with the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. This largest living thing on earth is a great mystical surprise. But, the shocking news is the reef is now facing a severe problem of existence. A recent report unveils the concept of brightening clouds to save the reef.
The Great Barrier Reef is visible from the outer space. Frequent changes of temperature in the ocean are one of the key causes that prove fatal for the said living thing. Scientists are now trying to avail an unusual approach to decrease the ocean temperature. They are trying to modify the existing marine clouds on the reef by artificially brighten them, according to the Engadget.
The process of artificially brightening the clouds can play a significant role to reflect the heat away from the sea below. Interestingly, this process is not as easy as it sounds. Great Barrier Reef is one of the biggest wonders on earth that grows naturally in the ocean. It is essential that any step to save this coral world should be very effective.
The way to make the marine clouds more reflective needs some perfect steps. Spraying the salt particles, generated from the sea water toward the low-lying marine clouds around the coastlines can brighten them efficiently. The salt can enhance the formation of droplets that ultimately increases the size and density of the clouds. No doubt the process is eco-friendly and may bring the true and fruitful result to protect the Great Barrier Reef.
Great Barrier Reef is an essential part of the existing ecosystem on earth. Before implementing the said process some concrete initiatives are necessary to address a number of issues. A long area of more than 1,400 miles should be taken into consideration to implement the process of brightening the clouds.
According to the BBC News, Great Barrier Reef in Australia experienced the worst destruction of the coral reefs in 2016. The northern section of the reef is the key area where almost 67% of the corals died. Though, the situation is not so grim in the central and southern section. The alarming fact is if the climate change takes place on a regular basis, then it is difficult to recover the situation.
Currently, no specific word is visible about the implementation time of the cloud brightening project. The research team is preparing to specify a model that can determine a practical difference after brightening the clouds. But, realistically it is difficult to provide a guarantee about the positive outcome of this project. Minute searching is necessary to explore whether a sufficient amount of clouds is present in the Great Barrier Reef area or not.
Most essentially major government support is necessary to carry on the project. It is true that every planned work must have some outcome after implementing it. If the said project of artificially brightening the clouds truly proves convincing, then it can be approachable for other fields also. Protection of the Great Barrier Reef is the urgent need of the hour and any step that can bring positive result is obviously adorable.

Coronavirus: Fourth largest US city may exceed ICU capacity in two weeks

The fourth-largest city in the United States is experiencing a coronavirus crisis as cases surge and medical facilities fill up.
The Texas city of Houston has seen its COVID-19 hospitalizations triple in the last month and it is estimated the city may exceed its ICU capacity in two weeks, according to Texas Medical Center's monitoring metrics.
People in the city "have just completely let their guard down" when it comes to following preventative measures, according to Houston Methodist Hospital CEO Dr. Marc Boom.
"Somewhere around Memorial Day, people just sort of sighed a breath of relief, and said, 'hey its summer, I'm going to act like its summer and I'm going to act like [coronavirus] was never here," Boom said in an interview with ABC News.

"I think we're really paying the price of that now," he added.
Texas surpassed 5,000 new infections in a single day for the first time on Tuesday, with the infection rate doubling to almost nine percent compared to last month. Hospitalizations have been at record highs – for 12 consecutive days.
Texas-based Dr. Christine Blackburn said the spike in cases is a combination of a lack of public precaution and reopening procedures not following recommended public health measures, such as enforced social distancing.
"What we are seeing now in Texas is likely just the beginning. I think we have a hard four to six weeks ahead of us," said Blackburn in an interview with Al Arabiya English.
The top infectious disease expert in the US, Dr. Anthony Fauci said Tuesday that "the next couple weeks are going to be critical" in Texas and other states that are trying to curtail an alarming spike in new cases.
The state is home to the largest pediatric hospital in the US, Texas Children's Hospital, which has started to take adult patients seriously ill with the virus, to free up bed space in other Houston hospitals.

Dr. Peter Hotez of Texas Children's Hospital told Al Arabiya English it is time for the city to "reimplement a new social distancing policy."
Last month the city was given the grade of "F" in a COVID-19 social distancing scoreboard launched by a New York and Norway-based company Unacast, which collects and analyzes data about human mobility from smartphones. The scoreboard compares the city's social distancing activity to its activity prior to COVID-19.
Harris County, of which Houston is part, received poor marks in all categories including reduction in average mobility and reduction in non-essential visits.

St. Petersburg Governor Valentina Matviyenko has announced that the controversial Gazprom office building, the Okhta Center, will be relocated away from the city's historical center. This sets an important precedent for the development of civil society in Russia.
The parties involved in the dispute, which has raged for the last two or three years, were quite intransigent, refusing outright to listen to each other's arguments.
Gazprom's specialists and some members of the municipal government had claimed that the project's critics were merely incompetent amateurs who live off western grants and wanted to see this vital commercial project fail. Representatives of civil society, in particular radical human rights activists such as Maxim Reznik, the head of the local branch of the United Democratic Party Yabloko, gave as good as they got, blaming the authorities for everything.
Some members of the public agreed that the business center should be built, but not in downtown St. Petersburg. The pro-project group tried to win them over with fine words about the project's importance for the city, or claimed that the "transparent" skyscraper would be "almost" invisible.
But even the city's moderates refused to budge, arguing that if built in Okhta the 400-meter skyscraper, however transparent, would irreversibly damage the cityscape.
The current decision is something of a compromise. It chimes with the views of the moderate majority, conceding that the undisputed need to boost development and build modern buildings in the city should not prevail at any price.
The stern, graceful vision of St. Petersburg, praised by Pushkin in his poem The Bronze Horseman, is of such lasting value as part of Russia's rich heritage, that it should never be sacrificed on the altar of economic gain, no matter how lucrative, as in the case of Gazprom's skyscraper.
Typically, it is the radicals who shout the loudest about their great victory.
"This is a victory for the city of St. Petersburg, past, present and future," said Maxim Reznik.
The public corporation Okhta Cultural and Business Center, established to implement the project, refused to comment. While radicals on each side were unabashed in defining each other's shortcomings.
This makes sense: there is a part of business that keeps silent about its victories and losses, and there is a group of citizens who love to play the role of "martyrs for the idea."
Actually, victory in this dispute was not due to either the radicals or the conservatives, but to common sense, that constructively minded part of society, and the country's authorities who listened to the prevailing public opinion.
"The Khimki forest [a part of Moscow's "green belt" across which a federal highway was to be built] and the Okhta Center cases are significant because they show that the authorities should discuss their plans with society and consider its opinion seriously," said Alexei Makarkin, deputy head of the Center for Political Technologies. Who would argue with that?

In the past, interiors were put together instinctively as a ration of the process of building. The profession of interior design has been a consequence of the encroachment of help and the complex architecture that has resulted from the improvement of industrial processes. The action of keen use of space, addict well-being and working design has contributed to the progress of the contemporary interior design profession. The profession of interior design is sever and positive from the role of interior decorator, a term commonly used in the US. The term is less common in the UK where the profession of interior design is still unregulated and therefore, strictly speaking, not yet officially a profession.
In ancient India, architects used to play as interior designers. This can be seen from the references of Vishwakarma the architect – one of the gods in Indian mythology. Additionally, the sculptures depicting ancient texts and endeavors are seen in palaces built in 17th-century India.
In ancient Egypt, "soul houses" or models of houses were placed in tombs as receptacles for food offerings. From these, it is doable to discern details virtually the interior design of oscillate residences throughout the substitute Egyptian dynasties, such as changes in ventilation, porticoes, columns, loggias, windows, and doors.
Throughout the 17th and 18th century and into the to the front 19th century, interior enhancement was the concern of the homemaker, or an employed upholsterer or craftsman who would advise upon the artistic style for an interior space. Architects would afterward hire craftsmen or artisans to fixed idea interior design for their buildings.

Who's this guy?
You know them. Believe me, you know them. Answer later.
So there's a Dark Shadows movie, eh? Fine; hope everyone who made it had a nice time, and hope the people who greenlit the thing and shoveled money at Tim Burton have saved some cash so when the studio jobs run out and they're head of a production company in the Valley that puts together money for straight-to-YouTube documentaries about Nazi UFOs and the plan to create a Wermacht out of genetically modified Bigfeet, they'll have enough cash on hand to meet the mortgage.
I remember when it was on TV - I was a kid, but my older cooler cousins liked it. Barnabas Collins was dreamy, I guess. In that dark tragic fashion. I watched the first episode a few months ago, and there was great promise in the idea, at least in the soap opera vein. (Ha! See what I did there? Bigfeet.) Most soaps look unwatchable from the distance of 40 years, but that had some style.
And some story. I don't know if anyone watches a soap for the story per se; they watch it for the characters plowing their way through the interminable tales. In a period of underemployment I watched "The Young and the Restless," because it had Eileen Davidson, who was gorgeous but unattainably classy, as we said back then, and Tracey Bregman, who I found knuckle-chewingly attractive with an 80s spiky hair-thing. Also a great semi-villain in the form of Jack Abbott, and of course Eric Braeden from "The Forbin Project," and one episode of the Mary Tyler Moore show, wandering around with a distant scowl and speaking in an accent you couldn't quite place. And, of course, Jeanne Cooper, who appeared to be the world's oldest functioning alcoholic in the show, about 92. That was 25 years ago, and she's still on.
She was on Perry Mason once.
But who wasn't. Question is, does she have Star Trek connection? Yes: her son is Corbin Bernson.
You know, Q.
Q2, if you want to be specific. I thought they were all named Q.
So I google around to get the names, and discover that Eileen Davidson was fired from Y&R yesterday. To make room for someone new, probably, because that's what soap viewers want: new stuff at the expense of tradition and decades-long plot lines.
But why a Dark Shadows movie? Because vampires are hott!!! and because Tim Burton + Depp is BO gold, right? I like Depp fine, but the staring-with-momentary-surprise-while-processing-befuddlement thing is old, and I'm tired of Burton's creepy-gloomy campy aesthetic. Beetlejuice said it all, and that movie's loved for Keaton's rotten hunk-of-ham routine and the oddly endearing sequence with the "Jomp in De Line" end music: it left you liking everything. Then "Batman," which looks like a stuttering mess now, child's play compared to the reboot.
It's just a series of boxes someone ticked: vampires, remake, Depp, artsy-weirdo. I'm just surprised they didn't combine forces and set the thing in a "Battleship" context to fold in that 60s game, then have "Mystery Date" as a subplot and make the villain turn out to be the kite in the "That Girl" opening sequence. That thing creeped me out. I had a crush on Marlo Thomas, but it just seemed odd that she had her own logo.
Speaking of which: here's the theme. There were many.
Apparently there was another:
She was like Mary Tyler Moore with a bit of the Susanne Pleshette voice. There's a full episode here, with commercials. That Girl! brought to you by L&M Cigarettes! It's written by Arnold Margolin, the brother of "Angel" on Rockford Files. But is there a Trek connection? Sure. The guest star in the episode, Sally Kellerman, was in the second pilot.
I think it goes without saying that sound was by Glen Glenn.
(Obviously, an offhand "That Girl" remark led to YouTubery which resulted in the pictures at the top of this post. I haven't planned this. Nay, I had to go back and reconstruct the entire Bleat. Worth the bother? You'll see.)
A day of spry bright hell, at work: had to line up a guest for Friday's video, and since the mandate requires NEWSMAKERS, this means I have to wait until the end of the week to see what's, well, news. What's news on Monday is fishguts on Friday. I put out many calls, waiting for the little buzz-in-the-back-pocket to tell me someone had reached out and goosed me; by the end of the day most of the calls came back with a sad nix or a hadn't been returned at all. Then at day's end, a call: sure, we can come in tomorrow, within the hours of 9:42 and 9:55, because there are meetings and reports and so on, and I thought: gosh, that's a complex schedule for someone in the city planning office. But then I realized this wasn't John from City Planning but John from the Mayor's office. Oh! Well. Great.
So up on Friday morn to talk about the stadium with the Mayor, and what it means for the neighborhood. The pictures show a bright gleaming building across the street from my office, and a broad veldt where people will Throng, and buildings alongside where other people will experience the joys of Urban Life, except for the Sunday mornings when the tailgaters flood the zone and the air is thick with the sizzle of bratwurst and the sour tang of vomit, but it's all a trade-off.
I don't believe a flourishing nightlife will arise around the building, or that it will revitalize the area. If there were 150 games per year, at night, maybe. But expecting bars and clubs and shops to appear around a structure that hosts a few games a year during the winter - no. Not when there's already an established entertainment district seven blocks to the north. This is pure speculation on my part, of course; it's possible that the stadium will cause the area to become Vibrant, to use the designated word. There's no way of knowing until you spend the billion.
What's that? Oh: yeah, that's true. There is a stadium on the spot right now. I suppose you could take a look around and see what it's done. Well, there's a bar. A bar. One. That's it; that's all. But I don't think you can draw any conclusions from thirty years' worth of experience, because the old stadium doesn't have bit shiny spotlights lancing the night sky like you see in the proposals. And there's really no way for people to get there - well, except for the light rail, which was supposed to create Dense Vital Vibrant spots wherever it deigned to pause.
But what about the Twins stadium? The area around there is doing great. Yes, because it was already the entertainment district. Because gentrification of the old warehouses was already underway, and the density is much higher. A decade-long redefinition of the area was underway, thanks to scores of individual initiatives. A top-down plan that tries to manufacture a dense community will fail. You have two instincts at work in city planning: make it happen, or let it happen. The former looks great on paper. The latter is a better place for living.
In the American context, anyway. I'm not talking about favelas piling up on the hillsides of Rio.
Hey! New Wards 1961; Older Woman is still barging into the junior lines, and women are holding hands. It's pretty gay. Or pretty and gay. That's it for this week - five bleats, ten matchbooks, one comic, ten Disney titles, four postcards, and ten pages of an old catalog.
Doesn't seem like enough, but I've enjoyed it. Hope you did too. See you around!
Oh, that guy?
The guy with the glasses:

In search of a great meal? We present our list of the best restaurants in the Woodlands and surrounding areas, as of the fall of 2018. Thanks to some new openings and revisits, there have been several changes to the list since our last update.
Great upscale Italian food can be tough to come by in the Woodlands, but Via Emilia is an exception to this rule. Tucked away in a strip center on Kuykendahl and Woodlands Parkway, Via Emilia prepares northern Italian specialities with verve and aplomb, and the gracious staff provides flawless service in the lovely dining room. Skillfully prepared seafood, meats, and pastas are great choices, and be sure to save room for the stellar limoncello cake.
The Woodands outpost of Michael Cordua's successful empire has hit its stride in the scenic waterway district. Delicious latin-influenced cuisine including Cordua favorites like the chimichurri-topped churrasco steak and the iconic tres leches are present and accounted for. New lighter options are available as well, all are skillfully executed by the well-managed staff.
Beautiful waterfront location with one of the most scenic patios in the Woodlands is perfect for happy hour; the bar is a hotspot after work. Well priced brunch is also turning heads.
The Hughes Landing setting is upscale, airy, and comfortable. Service is professional without being stuffy.
This family-run cafe has been making area diners happy with generous portions of eclectic, home-style cuisine. American favorites, Italian, and Cuban entrees are the highlights.
Owner Ulises Larramendi originally hails from Cuba, and he brings a gentle latin twist to American favorites. Service is friendly and reliable, and the family-friendly environment is filled with diners of all ages.
Garden fresh salads, hefty sandwiches, and well conceived appetizers (try the avocado beet toast) are the draw at this Sawdust area restaurant featuring healthy ingredients from local sources. The modern, inviting room is a relaxing space to enjoy. Fast and friendly counter service makes it a perfect spot for a quick lunch.
World class craft barbecue is the draw at Tejas Chocolate & Barbecue, a classic Texas barbecue joint located just off Main Street in Tomball. Pitmaster Scott Moore, Jr. and his brother (and chef) Greg smoke some of the best brisket, ribs, and sausage to be found in the state. Thursdays are a special treat, when housemade pastrami is added to the mix; don't miss it.
A great independent coffee house has taken root in the Woodlands Area. It has a distinctly craft approach to coffee, based on the vision of its all-star staff. Founder Allen Leibowitz was roastmaster of Zingerman's Coffee, founder Tia Hoffman is a master barista and trainer for Illy Coffee. Together with expert barista Ethan Elms, they've brought a world-class coffee house to the Woodlands area. But Momentum goes beyond coffee, with housemade sandwiches, salads, and small entrees created by chef Miranda Millette.
If your idea of a great coffee house is Starbucks, you need to visit Momentum and experience the difference.
Foodies in search of outstanding Italian food have a surprising new spot to try. Chef owned and recently relocated to the Woodlands, Nona's Italian Grill shows the kind of carefully crafted cuisine that is the hallmark of a memorable restaurant. From classics like the excellent Chicken Parmigiana to creative combinations featuring pastas, seafood, and outstanding steaks, we were impressed by quality of the ingredients, the solid execution, and the classic flavors of the signature sauces.
Located in a strip center on Highway 242 just west of I-45, Nona's modest yet upscale setting is cozy, quiet, and perfect for date night. Nona'a is an excellent addition to the surprisingly thin Woodlands Italian landscape. Full bar, professional service.
The best Mexican restaurant in Magnolia has opened a second location on Sawdust road, and savvy locals are already converging. They're drawn in by the impressive Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisine, which goes beyond the typical fajitas (although Julio's are outstanding) to superb creations like the El Sabroso (lightly breaded chicken breast covered in a shrimp/poblano cream sauce). The menu is strong from top to bottom – street tacos are a don't miss, and their al pastor may be the best on Houston's north side. Service is friendly and professional.
Ramen lovers rejoice – The Woodlands now has a legitimate spot to relax with a soulful bowl of ramen. The talented chef hails from Japan, as does the savvy manager, and they bring their expertise in this surprisingly intricate cuisine to The Woodlands area.
The tightly edited menu features several varieties of ramen; we recommend starting with the traditional tonkatsu and working your way through the well curated options. Service is friendly and professional, and the small room is beautifully adorned with custom artwork commissioned locally by the owners.
This hidden gem is an offshoot of Huynh, one of the best Vietnamese restaurants in Houston, so we were excited to hear of its opening. Upon visiting, our high expectations were exceeded.
Soups are superb; the pho is rich and flavorful, and the chicken wonton is light years ahead of what you'll find at a typical Chinese spot. But don't miss the plated entrees; they are created with an eye to bold flavors and careful attention to detail.
The space is large, bright, and airy, with a sleek modern design. It's quickly become our preferred Vietnamese destination in the Woodlands area.

Primary activity, betting shops and s. 153 of the Gambling Act
Gerald Gouriet QC and George Mackenzie take issue with a London borough's interpretation of the outcome of judicial review proceedings relating to primary activity and a betting shop.
The website for Newham Council has published an account of a decision made by their licensing sub-committee in which an application made by William Hill for a new betting premises licence was rejected on the ground (inter alia) that the sub-committee "was not satisfied that the primary activity at this (sic) particular premises would be traditional over the counter betting."
In the course of the account given on the website (but not daring to show its face in the actual written decision) is the wrongful assertion that the High Court had recently "overturned part of District Judge Goldspring's decision" in the Paddy Power appeal of June last year, in a judicial review of that decision brought by Newham. The High Court did no such thing, and it is instructive to set the record straight.
The judicial review referred to by Newham merely resulted in a Declaration (whose uncontroversial terms were agreed by all parties to the judicial review brought by the Council) which does no more than reflect section 153 of the Gambling Act 2005. The Declaration provides:
"The effect of Section 153 of the Gambling Act 2005 is to require a local Licensing Authority carrying out its functions – including considering applications for Premises Licences – to have regard to any code of practice under Section 24 and any guidance document under Section 25 issued by the Gambling Commission, including the provisions of that code and the principals contained in that guidance. In the present drafting of the code of practice and the guidance document one provision of the code and one principal contained in the guidance to which a local Licensing Authority must have regard is that of primary gambling activity".
The first clause of the Declaration makes it clear that it was intended to reflect Section 153. It was not intended to, and did not, chart any new legal territory.
Anyone familiar with the Gambling Act, however, will see at once that the declaration is deficient, in that it twice omits the word "relevant" after the word "any" in the third line: Section 153 requires a licensing authority to have regard to any relevant code of practice under Section 24 and any relevant guidance document under Section 25. The deficiency was thought too small a quibble to be the stuff of a substantive High Court action, and could in any event be explained on a case-by-case basis should the need arise: the actual words of section 153 are there for anyone to see.
It is necessary to recognise that omission, however, in countering the erroneous suggestion that part of District Judge Goldspring's decision was "overturned" by the High Court. Leaving aside the somewhat obvious fact, overlooked by Newham, that the judge's comments about primary gambling activity were expressly said by him to be no part of his decision, his analysis of the law was not only correct but was neither overturned nor even commented upon by the High Court: the Declaration was by consent, and there is no judgment.
District Judge Goldspring was fully aware of section 153 and observed it faithfully. His decision (read as a whole, without cherry-picking single sentences), fully accords with the Declaration. He was taken through the Gambling Commission's codes and guidance and had regard to them, as he was required to. He concluded, correctly, that when one looks at the actual terms of them, as well as the Gambling Commission's mandatory conditions relating to Operating Licences, one sees that the primary gambling act requirement is expressly worded so as to apply to existing licensees and their conduct of licensed premises. The judge would appear to have concluded that the passages in the codes and guidance were not, therefore, "relevant" to applications for new licences. If that is what was meant by the judge's obiter comments, he was in our respectful opinion absolutely right – and he was certainly not overruled by the High Court.
Gerald Gouriet QC and George Mackenzie are barristers at Francis Taylor Building. They acted for Power Leisure Bookmakers Limited in the Newham judicial review.

'US-led criminal enterprise in Syria threatens the world'
Published time: 9 Oct, 2016 12:39
© Andrew Kelly © Reuters
As the UN Security Council predictably rejected both French and Russian rival resolutions on Syria, RT discussed with experts why it happened and how damaging this will be for the Syrian peace process.
The Russian and French rival draft resolutions on the Syrian crisis have been vetoed at the UN Security council. It was an outcome that the Russian ambassador to the UN, Vitaly Churkin, predicted ahead of the vote.
Unfortunately, diplomacy did not always prevail. When Syria's envoy, Bashar Jaafari, was given the floor, representatives of a number of countries, including the US and UK, left the meeting.
Jaafari commented on their departure, saying they did not want to hear "words of truth".
Rival resolutions on Syria sponsored by Russia & France fail at UNSC
RT: Why do you think France put forward the draft resolution even though Russia made it clear it would veto it?
Sara Flounders, head of antiwar think-tank International Action Center: Really all of this is maneuvering. There are obviously two sides in this struggle. You have the US - with great assistance from France, Britain, the EU - absolutely backing up the effort to overturn the government in Syria – an absolutely illegal violation of the Security Council and their bombing in Syria is really to try to destroy Syria; it is not to push back ISIS and it hasn't been to push back ISIS. So, you have two resolutions: One is window dressing to cover the US and EU role, and the other put forth by Russia to really show who has stopped any resolution. By calling for which was agreed earlier, that the so-called moderate forces would be separated from Al-Nusra, the terrorist forces. And you can't do that because in essence they really are the same. So, that resolution was pushed back by the US and members of the Security Council that are aligned with the US. It just confirms that there are two sides and it is very dangerous for the people of the entire world and of course the people of Syria.
Franco Frattini, former Italian Foreign Minister, currently President of the Italian Society for International Organization (SIOI) commented on the UN Security Council rejection of both French and Russian rival resolutions on Syria: "First of all, it is a missed opportunity. We should have approved a comprehensive resolution to go rapidly towards a political process for the solution in Syria. This is the precondition to succeed – political process. And apparently both America and the Russian Federation say we want a political process. The problem and frankly speaking a mistake mistake of the Western coalition is not highlighting the distinction between the so-called moderate rebels and not all the terrorist groups because there is an agreement on ISIS but Al-Nusra. There is a shadow position over the inclusion or not of Al-Nusra in the targets. Al-Nusra should be one of the targets."
RT: As we heard, several members were unwilling to sit in the same room as the Syrian envoy. How damaging is this for the peace process?
SF: That certainly sends a message that the agenda remains the same: to overturn the government of Syria. And if the US were to succeed in that we could only ask who is next. Because they are not likely to be appeased by this. Them walking out when the Syrian ambassador to the UN, Bashar Jaafari, it really shows their disdain for any real negotiated process and their determination to continue with military measures and to continue to support the fanatical and terrorist forces that they have brought to life, they have armed and trained and financed. They have done it directly and through Saudi Arabia, through Israel and through Turkey. This is really a criminal enterprise and it is a threat to the world.
Remarks to the press by Ambassador V.Churkin following the #UNSC meeting on #Syria — https://t.co/bisEh6AkJO#RusPrespic.twitter.com/3rsY2OU0uf
— Russian Mission UN (@RussiaUN) October 8, 2016
'West does not seek peace in Syria'
RT: As Vitaly Churkin said, it was clear even before the draft resolutions were put forward that neither would be approved. So why do you think they went ahead with the vote?
Abayomi Azikiwe: This is a method of continuing the dialogue in this international forum around Syria. But the two positions are diametrically opposed. The Russians luckily enough learned enormous lessons from the war five years ago against Libya. They were able to get a UN Security Council resolution, two of them, on March 2011 which in fact was used as a pseudo-legal rational for the massive bombing campaign against Libya. The world is still living today with the impact of that war that continues all across Libya. The situation in Syria is dire. Millions of people displaced, millions of them also have left the country. So, this points out - particularly with the French resolution that the British and the French supported - it shows clearly that the Western powers do not want peace in Syria. The only peace they want is one in which they achieve their strategic objectives, and that is regime change in Damascus.
RT: The Russian draft focused on getting al-Nusra terrorists out of Aleppo to allow peace talks to happen. Why do you think western powers objected to that plan?
No sign US is seriously battling Al-Nusra; calls not to fly over Aleppo suspicious – Lavrov
AA: Objectively, they have the same goals as Jabhat al Nusra and the other armed extremist organizations that are fighting against the government and Damascus, but they want to overthrow the government of President Bashar Al-Assad. That is their strategic objective in Syria. The US agrees with the opposition, although they cannot come out openly and state that their objectives and the objectives of Jabhat al Nusra and the other extremist organizations are in fact co-determinist. This is the problem when you have this type of split within the UN Security Council, because the US through its own behavior illustrates clearly that they are totally opposed any type of long-term political settlement in Syria. They get up and walk out when the Syrian ambassador Jaafari speaks to the Security Council. This is a clear illustration they do not recognize the government in Damascus.
For the last five and a half years, the US has been backing these opposition organizations in Syria. They have not been successful in toppling the government, but they have been successful in bringing about a lot of social distress and a lot of displacement. And this of course is spilling out beyond the boundaries and borders of Syria itself. But they do not want peace in that country for the simple fact that it will not coincide with what their ultimate objectives are: They want to get rid of the government in Damascus as a gateway of putting more pressure on the Islamic Republic of Iran, as well as weakening the foreign and diplomatic efforts of the Russian Federation.
This is an (…) international clash of various geopolitical interests that are surrounding the nation of Syria and it will continue until the siege of Aleppo by these armed extremist organizations is completely broken. We see that they accuse Russia in Syria of accusing atrocities, but they say nothing about the organizations they are supporting openly and clandestinely on the ground, and who are creating the situation for all this displacement and disorder in Syria.

David Brock is the Managing Director at park home warranty provider, Goldshield. Here, he answers some of the most commonly asked questions about retiring to a park home.
What are the benefits of living in a park home?
For one, they tend to be much more affordable than standard homes, so they can be great for unlocking equity to use in retirement. This also means you can live in a desirable location for a much lower cost.
Plus, the heightened security measures in these parks mean they provide a safe environment and atmosphere that may not have been present in other neighbourhoods. Many park sites take precautionary measures like adding gates, using a fob system and requiring visitors to sign in and out.
How do I choose the right park home for me?
With both new and pre-owned park homes available, it's relatively straightforward to find the perfect one for you. You might even be able to design your own alongside the manufacturer to ensure it is completely unique and suited to your individual tastes.
Don't be put off by buying a pre-owned park home as not only are they bound to be cheaper than new ones — providing great value for money — but updating them has never been easier. As you own the property outright as soon as you make the payment, you're free to decorate it as you wish, making it an appealing option for people who can't find a new park home they like the look of.
What are the ongoing costs for park homes?
When you purchase your park home, you own the entire property outright, but not the land your park home sits on: instead, a pitch fee is paid to the park owner as rent for living on their land.
As with any other type of home, council tax and utilities are all requirements to pay and are calculated in line with the Office of Gas and Electricity Markets standards, which means you can't be overcharged. However, unlike with other types of homes, you pay the bills to the park owner, not the respective companies. With water, park owners are allowed to add a small administrative fee.
Are there any rules on park sites?
This can vary for each park and will be at the land owner's discretion. It isn't rare for there to be a ban against pets and there can be adult-only sites, so it's worth checking if you have grandchildren who may need to stay for prolonged periods of time. As you don't own the land, it's a given that you won't be able to make any external changes to it, at least without consulting the park owner beforehand. Always ask for a copy of any park rules and ensure you're okay with them before committing to a specific park.
What is park home community like?
Most people who downsize to a park home are in retirement, so parks are usually very quiet and peaceful. These sites usually have a strong sense of community spirit, but you'll still be granted a lot of privacy and the option to get as involved as you want. As the park will probably be full of like-minded people, you can rest assured you'll be able to live in a tranquil environment, free of disruption.
Although moving to a park home can be a big step, it can save you heaps of money as well as giving you the opportunity to spend time meeting a lot of new like-minded people.
