What we saw is that there was a clear surge at the beginning of the pandemic when people were more fearful and didn’t know what was going on,” said Russell Jeung, an Asian American studies professor at San Francisco State University who helped start a website called Stop AAPI Hate where people can report anti-Asian attacks and harassment. According to Stop AAPI Hate’s data, incidents would spike when then-President Donald Trump used racist terms like “Chinese virus” and “kung flu” during speeches, Jeung said. Leading up to Lunar New Year, there is a high level of crime targeting elders because they’re more vulnerable,” said Cynthia Choi, another founder of Stop AAPI Hate and co–executive director of Chinese for Affirmative Action, Having the police presence may make you feel safe immediately, but it’s not a long-term solution,” said Eddy Zheng, president of the New Breath Foundation, an Oakland group dedicated to aiding Asian Americans affected by violence.

According to Carolyn McClanahan, a doctor and certified financial planner who specializes in aging issues with Life Planning Partners in Jacksonville, Florida, it’s likely the despised husband will end up with possession of your mother-in-law Moreover, you might need to offer your mother-in-law help with a more pressing financial need in the future. In lieu of paying off the mortgage, McClanahan says you should consider giving your mother-in-law monthly support and consider it a gift—provided, that is, you aren’t endangering your own financial future by doing it. I’m guessing, as awful as this sounds, that offering even occasional financial assistance will make it much less likely that the creepy husband will be able to successfully isolate your mother-in-law.

The scaffolding, which now looks like someone dropped a gigantic bowling ball through its center, was completed in the summer of 2018 for what was supposed to be a 30-year renovation of the aging cathedral. At a press conference on Tuesday, Frédéric Létoffé, one of the presidents of the French organization that represents historic monument restoration companies, said he thought the reconstruction would take 10 to 15 years. And I’m definitely not suggesting that a desperate priest tiptoed into the “forest,” as the warren of 13th-century oak beams supporting the pointed roof was known, to set the whole thing on fire, though I encourage you to pick up my thriller Notre Drame, coming soon to a Hudson News near you. Notre Dame is at least the third priceless historic building to go up in flames during a renovation in the past year, after the Mackintosh building at the Glasgow School of Art and the National Museum of Brazil both caught fire last summer.

After a couple minutes, the goal was called back for an offside violation, leaving the series tied 4–4 and sending Tottenham to the semifinals because it had scored more away goals. It also looked like an odd issue to raise: The pass Agüero was trying to recover was played by Tottenham’s Christian Eriksen, and a player can’t be offside when the ball is played by an opponent. There are few things more tedious in modern sports than complaining about instant replay, but it made Wednesday’s game devolve into a deep dive into the minutiae of the Laws of the Game, like a sports movie directed by prequel-era George Lucas. Every team remaining has scored four goals or more in a single Champions League knockout match this season except Tottenham, which has scored three twice.
