Due to the volcanic ash cloud arising from Mount Rinjani in Lom-bok, Indonesia, the conditions in the vicinity of Denpasar Airport, Bali, are unsafe for flying, the Jetstar management noted in a statement published on its official website on Tuesday.

“As a result, Jetstar has cancelled some flights on Tuesday (Novem-ber 4) (AEST) to and from Bali following assessment of the latest information from the Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre,” it noted.

“We plan to provide a further update this afternoon at the earli-

est regarding the rest of Tuesday’s flights that are not on the cancelled list,” it stated further.

The airline affirmed that it would resume flights once the conditions improved and will update custom-ers if poor flying conditions lead to further cancellations.

Virgin and Jetstar said they would make a decision on Wednes-day’s flights after being updated by the Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre.

“We continue to monitor the situ-ation closely,” Virgin said.

On Tuesday, Virgin cancelled all 10 flights to and from the popular holiday destination while Jetstar cancelled 14.

The cancellations follow similar disruptions in July when volcanic ash cloud from an erupting Mount Raung in East Java shut down flights in and out of Denpasar for several days.

Among the flights affected by the

volcano included Jetstar Flight No. JQ-44 destined for Melbourne and Virgin Australia Flight No. VA-060 to Perth. (ant)

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — Will Smith is not expecting any pushback from the National Football League over his upcoming football drama “Concussion.”

“I don’t think it’s going to generate too much controversy (with the NFL). There will be a little difficulty in swallowing it, as it was for me. I’m a football dad, you know,” said the 47-year-old father of three.

Smith was honored Sunday at the Hollywood Film Awards for his work in “Concussion.” He plays Dr. Bennet Omalu, the foren-sic neuropathologist who uncovered the dangerous effects of head trauma on the brain in football.

“You don’t want it to be true,” Smith said on the red carpet. “I think that the science is really irrefutable and the story of Dr. Bennet Omalu is such a powerful story. I think that it will be difficult at first for some, but I don’t think that it’s going to be that big of an issue. It’s something that we have to accept.”

“Concussion” made headlines after the New York Times reported that the film was altered to placate the National Football League, a charge director Peter Landesman and Sony have denied.

The Grammy-winning rapper, who recently appeared on the remix of Bomba Estereo’s song, “Fiesta,” also discussed his return to music after a decade-long hiatus.

“It’s such a new exploration for me. The most fun that I have. There’s nothing that compares to being on the stage with a hit record. So you know I’ve been performing a little bit with (DJ Jazzy) Jeff. We’ve been sneaking out and going to places and working out a little bit. So I think it’s going to be magnificent.” (ap)

Her fellow country stars, includ-ing Lady Antebellum and Reba McEntire, surprised the Georgia-born singer with performances of her songs, including “Walkaway Joe,” and “She’s In Love With the Boy,” during the 53rd annual ASCAP Country Music Awards on Monday in Nashville, Tennessee.

“Since her debut in the early ‘90s, Trisha Yearwood has given young women a voice through song, with powerful lyrics about love, loss and staying true to your own self,” Timberlake said.

Yearwood was given the Voice of Music Award, while Ashley Gorley was named the songwriter of the

year and Sam Hunt was named songwriter-artist of the year by the music licensing agency. Hunt also received the award for song of the year for “Leave the Night On,” writ-ten by Hunt and Josh Osborne.

The Grammy-winning artist has sold more than 12 million albums and is also a successful cooking show host and cook book author, Timberlake noted, adding, “Girl-friend is busy.”

Yearwood and her husband, Garth Brooks, joined Carter earlier in the week in Memphis, Tennessee, to help build a home as a part of the charity Habitat for Humanity.

Carter, who is undergoing treat-ment for cancer, received a standing ovation from the crowd of song-writers, singers and music industry executives.

He said he was an admirer of Yearwood’s work for a long time, but in the past decade has been working with her and Brooks to support the charity, which has helped 5 million people with home construction and repairs.

Yearwood proudly showed off an example of her hard work while on the red carpet prior to the show.

“I have a blister,” Yearwood said. “I don’t want anybody to go, ‘She’s a singer, she’s not going to work.’ I think I work harder than I should because I don’t want anybody to think I am slacking.”

Yearwood said that she’s not known as a songwriter, so she was especially proud to get recognized by songwriters in Music City.

“The highest compliment I can receive is when I can record a song and the writer is happy with my rendition,” Yearwood said. (ap)

LONDON — Glenn Close is getting ready to reprise her starring role as silent screen diva Norma Desmond in “Sunset Boulevard” — by taking to the treadmill. Close said Monday that her preparation involved working out. “You have to have strong muscles in you to project that kind of energy on the stage.”

“So I’m getting on the treadmill, which is not something I really love to do,” she told reporters at the English National Opera’s Coliseum theater.

Close won a Tony Award in 1995 for the Broadway production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical, based on Billy Wilder’s 1950 film.

Two decades on, she will play Desmond — the faded femme fa-

tale who declares “I am big — it’s the pictures that got small” — for 43 performances at the Coliseum starting April 1.

The production will be “semi-staged,” with the opera’s orchestra onstage alongside the cast.

The 68-year-old “Fatal Attrac-tion” star has been nominated for six Academy Awards. She has won three Emmys and three Tonys.

Next year’s run of “Sunset Bou-levard” will be Close’s first time on the London stage since she starred in “A Streetcar Named Desire” at the National Theatre in 2002

Close said Norma Desmond “haunted me after I left her,” and playing her again would be like discovering a new character.

Enforcement of the ASEAN Eco-nomic Community (AEC) results in subtly economic colonization. These conditions have even occurred long before the free-market policies are applied. One

of them is the flooding imported products and the entry of foreign work-

ers to Indonesia, especially Bali. Deputy Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Kadin) Bali in charge of Organization and Membership I Gusti Ngurah Adnyana stated this opinion recently.

According to Ngurah Adnyana, people condi-tioned to purchase or use the products of foreign companies operating in Indonesia is a piece of for-eign role in economic sector. As a result, the flows of money that can be actually deposited in the country are largely taken home by the foreign companies.

He added, even though the AEC has not been en-forced in full, without being realized the presence of foreigners on this island has undermined the pillars of social economy. “Today we are already in global competition. Like or dislike it, we have entered the global competition,” he said.

It is an age few reach while still on tour. Yet the player who beat Rafael Nadal in three sets to take the Swiss Indoors title on Sunday seemed far from retirement.

“I have a very clear plan how ‘16 is going to be until December,” Federer told The Associated Press in an interview after winning his hometown event for a seventh time. “That is the discussion I’m having with my wife right now. Are we go-ing to be home for Christmas or not? Then ‘17 is around the corner for me as well already.

“I’m thinking way ahead,” said the Swiss great, whose victory in Basel lifted him to No. 2 in the rankings published Monday. Why wouldn’t he? At 34, the numbers for his season speak of a player in top form and fitness.

A 58-9 record going into this week’s Paris Masters, including six titles and two Grand Slam finals. Only Novak Djokovic in his career-best year has beaten Federer in any tourna-ment final, including denying him a record-extending 18th major title at

Wimbledon and the U.S. Open.After Paris, Federer goes to Lon-

don to play at the ATP finals for a 14th straight year. Expert managing of his schedule, including a family vacation in September, has kept him sharp when others — including his younger self, he says — are worn down in November.

“That is the goal with having the time off with the kids, with my wife,” said Federer, whose family — wife Mirka, their 6-year-old twin girls Myla Rose and Charlene Riva, and 18-month-old twin boys Leo and Lenny — often join him on tour.

One product of his keen tennis mind is the now-trademark move to sneak up and return serve while ap-proaching the net. “The sneak attack is a fun thing for me to do,” he said. “How many times can you hit a slice and be excited about it?

“Sometimes you have got to just do something a bit different. Just be young in your mind and say, ‘Just go for it. Who cares?’”

Fun-seeking is also why Federer says he will play into December in

the International Premier Tennis League at places like India, Sin-gapore and Dubai, where he has a home. For now, Federer enjoys his tennis too much to think too deeply about stopping. “As long as I haven’t decided what I’m going to do yet, I’ve got to keep a schedule as well which I feel like I’m playing for many more years to come,” he said. Federer previously said he will not announce a long-term plan to end his career, so avoiding a farewell tour.

“I hope it’s going to come gradu-ally and that I will know when the right time is,” he said. “But I don’t want to think about it too much.

“If you get injured then it comes more slowly but the mind could all of a sudden go, pfft, that’s it. Who knows? If there’s a thing with family that is just so much more important than playing tennis.” He is sure that, as with his Christmas 2016 plans, parents and family will be part of the retirement conversation.

“I would let them know about it rather than saying I’ve taken the decision already,” Federer said. “I would probably ask them, ‘Do you think this is a good idea?’ “Ev-erybody will agree with me at that point anyway. But we’re not there yet.” (ap)

MEXICO CITY - Nico Rosberg put his Texas blues behind him on Sunday to win the first Mexican Grand Prix in 23 years and show triple world champion Mercedes team mate Lewis Hamilton how it feels to finish second. The German’s fourth victory of the year, and 12th of his career, ended Hamilton’s three-race winning streak a week after the Briton secured his third title.

On a sunny afternoon, with the 135,000-strong crowd creating a party atmosphere, the Briton was left feeling sore after questioning a team instruction to pit for fresh tyres after Rosberg had already done so. The German, whose late mistake in Austin handed Hamilton the victory that clinched the title, led cleanly away from pole position and finished 1.9 seconds ahead after also setting the fastest lap. It was Mercedes’ 10th one-two in 17 races.

“This is really the best podium of the year, what a place to win” said Rosberg, addressing a cheering mass of more than 100,000 from a podium overlooking the stadium complex. “Amazing day, great race,” added the German.

With both championships already decided, Mercedes having retained their constructors’ crown in Russia last month, the race win was all that mattered for the dominant duo at the Hermanos Rodriguez circuit. Ros-berg’s win lifted him to second in the championship, 21 points clear of Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel who failed to score after a crash that brought out the safety car on the 52nd of the 71 laps. The German was unhurt. Finland’s Valtteri Bottas finished third for Williams. (rtr)

The entire 2015 MotoGP field has been summoned to an extraordinary meeting with series chiefs at Va-lencia amid the controversy over Valentino Rossi and Marc Marquez’s Sepang clash. With tensions between Honda and Yamaha still high, and fans and the paddock polarised, all riders and team managers will meet with

Carmelo Ezpeleta, chief executive of MotoGP com-mercial body Dorna Sports, and FIM president Vito Ippolito on Thursday afternoon.

An FIM statement said the gathering had been called “following the events that occurred at the Malaysian Grand Prix and further developments over the follow-ing week and given the exceptional circumstances.”

The traditional pre-race press conference that takes place at every grand prix has been cancelled for Va-lencia. Last week Ippolito issued an opening letter in which he called on the factions involved in the row to stop ‘poisoning’ MotoGP and causing ‘anarchy’.

Rossi and Marquez’s Sepang collision was the culmination of growing bitterness following previous incidents between the pair this season, and amid the Italian’s accusations that Marquez was actively trying to hamper his championship bid in the preceding race at Phillip Island.

Race direction gave Rossi three penalty points on his licence for taking Marquez out in Malaysia, triggering a back of the grid start for the Valencia title decider, which Rossi goes into with a seven-point lead over Yamaha team-mate Jorge Lorenzo. Rossi has lodged an appeal against the verdict with the Court of Arbitration for Sport. (ap)

TABANAN - The region of Pupuan in Tabanan actu-ally has some tourist attrac-tions remaining very natural and potential. One of them is the Blemantung waterfall. Unfortunately, due to lack of signpost, many travelers espe-cially foreigners, are confused to look for this waterfall. Not a few visitors are forced to turn back because of confusion when looking for the location. Similarly, many residents of Tabanan, except for villagers of Pujungan, do not know about this waterfall.

To reach the Blemantung waterfall, visitors must ask local villagers of Pujungan. Under-standably, there is no official signpost. When arriving at the office of Pujungan headman, visitors should continue the journey westwards. Approxi-mately after two kilometers, you will find an entrance to the north. It is the usual driveway taken by visitors because there is no signpost so that visitors wishing to get to the waterfall may go too far and are forced to turn back. When entering the road to the north of about 300 meters, you will encounter a concrete road. Simply follow this road as far as 700 meters or approximately 30 minutes.

As soon as arriving at a concrete bridge, your journey cannot be resumed by vehicle but has to walk through the path passing through a coffee plantation of local residents. The distance is about one kilo-meter. Afterwards, visitors will pass the Taman Sari Temple. Location of the Blemantung waterfall is right behind the temple.

BALI DIRECTORY

With all of the ballots counted early on Monday, the prelimi-nary results showed that the party won more than 49 percent of the votes. It was projected to get 317 seats in the 550-member parliament, restoring the party’s single-party majority that it had lost in a June election.

Turkish financial assets were buoyant Monday after the AKP’s victory as investors hoped it will bring an end to a long period of political uncertainty. The Turkish lira was one big beneficiary from the result, surging by 5 percent or so on foreign exchange markets.

“The whole world must show respect. So far I haven’t seen such a maturity from the world,” Erdogan said after attending prayers at a mosque and visiting

his parents’ graves.It was an apparent reference

to Western media’s often criti-cal coverage of AKP’s policies in the past few years, including the ruling party’s backsliding on democratic reforms and moves to muzzle critical voices.

International election observ-ers on Monday noted that elec-tions were free and peaceful but criticized media restrictions in the run-up to the vote, including the seizure by the government of an opposition media company and criminal investigations of journalists for allegedly sup-porting terrorism or defaming Erdogan. The observers said the incidents of violence as well as physical attacks on party of-ficials had hindered many of the

contestants’ ability to campaign freely.

“Unfortunately we came to the conclusion that this cam-paign was unfair and was char-acterized by too much violence and by too much fear,” Andreas Gross, who headed a delegation of parliamentarians from the Council of Europe, told a news conference in Ankara. There were no allegations of large-scale fraud.

Any hope that Erdogan would ease media repression evaporated on Monday after a court ordered police to seize all copies of a weekly political magazine for sug-gesting on its front page that the aftermath of the election would mark the start of a civil war in the country. Nokta magazine said on its website that its chief editor and a manager were expected to be questioned for allegedly inciting people to violence.

Erdogan had called for a new election after Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu failed to form a coalition with any of the three

opposition parties in parliament after the June vote.

Sunday’s election was held amid renewed violence and Erdogan and Davutoglu argued that only a single-party majority could restore stability.

Fighting between Turkey’s se-curity forces and Kurdish rebels has left hundreds of people dead and shattered an already-fragile peace process. Two recent mas-sive suicide bombings at pro-Kurdish gatherings that killed some 130 people, apparently car-ried out by an Islamic State group cell, also raised tensions.

“The will of the people ... opted for stability,” Erdogan said. “The developments in that short span of time made the people say: ‘there is no way out other than stability.’”

Most analysts had expected AKP to fall short of a majority again, but the preliminary results suggest it picked up millions of votes at the expense of a nation-alist party and a pro-Kurdish party. (ap)

TEHRAN, Iran — Iran’s supreme leader says the slogan “Death to America” is not aimed at the American people, but rather American policies.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s website says Tuesday he made the comment while meeting with Iranian students ahead of the anniversary of the takeover of the U.S. em-bassy in Tehran on Nov. 4, 1979. Militant students stormed the compound and took 52 Americans hostage for 444 days.

The two countries have had no diplo-matic relations since then. However, cur-rent President Hassan Rouhani has made efforts to improve relations, including a landmark nuclear agreement reached with world powers this past summer.

Khamenei says the “aim of the slogan is not death to American people. The slogan means death to U.S. policies and arrogance.” He says the slogan has “strong support” in Iran. (ap)

KATHMANDU — A bus packed with passengers riding both inside and on its roof veered off a mountain road in north-west Nepal on Tuesday, killing 30 people and injuring 35 others, officials said.

Government administrator Shiv Ram Gelal said the bus drove off the road near Ramche village and rolled about 150 me-ters (500 feet) down a slope.

Gelal said the bus was overcrowded because of a severe fuel shortage in the country that has limited transportation.

Police, soldiers and local villagers helped recover injured people and bodies from the wreckage.

Police were investigating the accident, which occurred about 80 kilometers (50 miles) northwest of the capital, Kathmandu. Accidents in Nepal are generally caused by poorly maintained roads and vehicles.

The severe fuel shortage has forced people to travel on the roofs of buses, which generally is not allowed for safety reasons. It has become common to see bus roofs packed with people and police rarely stop them.

Ethnic protesters have blocked a key border point with India since September, which has prevented the import of fuel and other supplies. Nepal normally gets all of its fuel from India. (ap)

TERNATE - Indonesia does not need to im-port fish as the country’s production is sufficient to meet its domestic requirement, including the needs of its industry and people, an observer stated.

“What it might need to import is certain types of fish of good quality that are difficult to obtain in Indonesia in order to meet the demand of hotels,” Mahmud Hasan of North Maluku’s Muhammadiyah University affirmed on Monday.

The solution for the fishery industry, which is facing shortage of raw materials in Indone-sia, is not to import but to increase domestic production of fishing companies or traditional fishermen.

He pointed out that Marine Affairs and Fisheries Minister Susi Pudjiastuti’s policy to impose a moratorium on the issuance of licenses for foreign fishing ships and to optimize efforts to prevent fish poaching have contributed sig-nificantly to the domestic fish production ,and thus, the industry’s need for fish could be met.

Hasan said that the government’s program to increase fish production by providing assistance in the form of fish catching tools for fishermen had also increasingly helped to boost national fish production and to reduce the import of fish, which is deemed unnecessary.

“I do not understand the basic reason for the trade minister to allow the import of fish. This policy only benefits certain parties and ignores the interests of the fishermen in Indonesia,” the observer emphasized.

According to Hasan, the fish import policy will threaten the livelihood of fishermen in In-donesia if it is not lifted, particularly the interest of traditional fishermen. This is because they will have to face a fall in prices as a result of the arrival of imported fish.

The government should instead focus on ways to increase Indonesia’s fish exports. One of Indonesia’s main exports in the face of global market competition is its genuine fish commod-ity. (ant)

WASHINGTON — U.S. factory activity grew last month at its slow-est pace since May 2013 as manu-facturers pared their stockpiles and cut jobs.

The Institute for Supply Manage-ment said Monday that its index of factory activity slipped to 50.1 in October from 50.2 in September. The figures barely signal growth, which is any reading above 50.

U.S. manufacturers have been squeezed this year as a strong dol-lar and weak economies in China and other key foreign markets have cut into exports. A high dollar makes U.S. goods pricier overseas while lowering prices for imports that compete with American prod-ucts.

Monday’s report showed that a measure of hiring fell sharply, from 50.5 to 47.6. That means manufac-turers cut jobs last month.

Still, the report contained some bright signs: New orders jumped, suggesting that business may pick up in coming months. And a gauge of production rose for the first time since July.

“We’re hopeful this will mark the low,” Ian Shepherdson, an

economist at Pantheon Macroeco-nomics, said in a note to clients. “It looks as though the downshift in manufacturing activity may be coming to an end.”

Both manufacturers and their customers are cutting back on stockpiles, which slows production as companies sell existing goods rather than order new ones. But that trend slowed last month and may soon be complete, said Bradley Holcomb, chair of the ISM’s manu-facturing survey committee.

Sharp declines in oil and natural gas prices have led drilling compa-nies to reduce orders for steel pipe and other equipment used to build rigs. That trend, combined with the strong dollar, has helped lower the ISM’s index from roughly 57 late last year to 50.1. The ISM is a trade group of purchasing managers.

Strong car sales, which are run-ning at their highest level in a de-cade, are one of the few trends that are working in the opposite direc-tion and boosting factory output.

A slowdown in China, the world’s second-largest economy, has delivered a direct hit on con-struction equipment makers such

as Caterpillar. Yet there are signs that China’s economy is stabilizing: A survey of its manufacturers over the weekend found that its factory activity is still contracting but at a slower pace.

Other reports point to ongoing weakness in U.S. manufacturing, however. Factory production has fallen for two straight months, ac-cording to figures compiled by the Federal Reserve.

And orders for long-lasting fac-tory goods, an indication of future output, have tumbled in the past two months, a Commerce Department report last week indicated.

Many retailers and other busi-nesses stockpiled too many goods in the winter and spring and were left with crowded warehouses and store shelves. As they work off the excess supply, they have cut back on orders for new goods.

A slowdown in stockpiling was a big reason the U.S. economy weak-ened in the July-September quarter, the government said Thursday. The economy expanded at a 1.5 percent annual rate in the third quarter, far below the 3.9 percent pace in the April-June quarter. (ap)

Obama praised the rare bipartisan cooperation behind the deal, saying that 2-year agreement puts the government on a responsible path.

“It should finally free us from the cycle of shutdown threats and last-minute fixes and allows us to, therefore, plan for the future,” Obama said in brief remarks as he signed the bill.

Tuesday was the deadline for averting a default on U.S. financial obligations by raising the debt limit.

The Senate gave final approval to the House-passed bill late last week and sent it to Obama. He signed it in the Oval Office, shortly before departing on a day trip to New Jersey and New York.

The legislation raises the limit on the government’s debt through March 2017, pushing reconsideration of what in recent years has become a contentious issue until after the elections for the White House and Congress in November 2016.

The measure also sets federal spending through the 2016 and 2017 fiscal years, and eases strict caps on spending by providing an additional $80 billion, split evenly between military and domestic programs. The Appropriations committees must write legislation to reflect the spending and they face a Dec. 11 deadline to finish the work.

Negotiations over the budget, which began weeks ago, wrapped up quickly last week as Republican Rep. Paul Ryan prepared to become the new House speaker.

Obama negotiated the agreement with Republican and Demo-cratic congressional leaders who were intent on steering the in-stitution away from the brinkmanship and government shutdown threats that have haunted lawmakers for years. Republican Rep. John Boehner of Ohio, who stepped down both as speaker and from his seat in Congress at the end of last week, said he felt a sense of urgency to reach a deal before turning the gavel over to Ryan. Other lawmakers wanted the issue taken off the table as they look ahead to next fall’s elections.

Obama called the deal “a signal of how Washington should work” and urged lawmakers to keep up the collaboration.

The $80 billion in additional spending is paid for with a mix of spending cuts and revenue increases touching areas from tax compliance to spectrum auctions.

The deal would also avert a looming shortfall in the Social Secu-rity disability trust fund that threatened to slash benefits, and head off an unprecedented increase in Medicare premiums for outpatient care for about 15 million beneficiaries. (ap)

“There are matters that need to be anticipated such as in certain regions where social tensions were recently reported. We should pay serious attention to this,” Minister/State Secretary Pratikno quoted the president as saying on Tuesday.

President Jokowi held a meeting with representatives of the General Elections Commission (KPU), the General Elections Supervisory Board (Bawaslu), and the Honor-ary Council of the General Elec-tions (DKPP) at the State Palace

on Tuesday.During the meeting, the presi-

dent was accompanied by Pratikno and Home Affairs Minister Tjahjo Kumolo, among others.

Pratikno said the other potential areas of conflict included regions where the head candidates were still questioned by the public.

“We have to pay serious atten-tion to this. Also, attention should be given to regions where there is only one candidate,” he affirmed.

He stated that likely problems

to be faced during the simultane-ous regional head elections were also discussed on Monday during a cabinet meeting.

“We discussed it further today, and the KPU, Bawaslu, and DKPP offered complete explanations. The president heard their reports,” noted Pratikno.

On Monday, President Jokowi had called for detecting any poten-tial conflict ahead of the regional elections.

“He just now ordered us all, especially the National Intelligence Agency (BNN), the national police chief, and the Ministry of Home Affairs, to ensure early detection

of any potential conflict in several regions,” Home Affairs Minister Tjahjo Kumolo remarked on Mon-day.

He noted that the conditions have so far been peaceful before the simultaneous regional elections scheduled in several regions on December 9.

He revealed that sufficient bud-getary support had been made available for holding the elections in nine provinces, 224 districts, and six cities.

“Some regions, however, are still facing a budget deficit although their need for election funds could still be met by the provincial government.

This is still being discussed by the concerned legislative assemblies and the election supervisory body (Bawaslu),” he stated. The min-ister remarked that Rp7.1 trillion worth of funds have been provided through regional budgets.

He remarked that at the meeting, the president had also ordered close monitoring of voters’ lists.

He hoped the elections would run smoothly, successfully, and democratically. On November 4, a team from the office of the coordi-nating minister for political, secu-rity and legal affairs, Bawaslu, and the police will visit some conflict-prone regions. (ant)

BATAM - Two British journalists given short jail terms in Indonesia Tuesday for working without correct visas said they were relieved to be going home but disap-pointed they were treated as criminals for doing their jobs.

Neil Bonner, 32, and Rebecca Prosser, 31, were sentenced Tuesday to two-and-a-half months in prison, less than the five months sought by prosecutors who ac-cused them of misusing their tourist visas to make a documentary about piracy near the western island of Batam.

Unless prosecutors appeal against the sentence, their lawyer said the pair, who have been detained since May, could walk free after time spent in custody awaiting trial is taken into account.

Prosser said it was a “big relief” to be going home but condemned their sentence as a “criminalisation of journalists”.

“I think this makes it a more dangerous

landscape for other journalists in Indone-sia,” she told reporters in Batam after the sentence was passed.

Bonner thanked their supporters but expressed sadness because “this is jour-nalism on trial, and we’ve been found guilty”.

“I don’t think journalism is a crime,” he said.

Presiding judge Wahyu Prasetyo Wi-bowo said the defendants had violated their visas but admitted their wrongdoing and apologised.

The pair arrived in Indonesia to shoot a documentary about piracy for production house Wall to Wall with funding from National Geographic, according to their indictment.

It added they had hired several Indone-sians to act out a scene of a tanker being boarded by a group of pirates off Batam. The island is in the Malacca Strait, a major

shipping lane.Their lawyer Aristo Pangaribuan ex-

pressed regret that the prosecution was considering filing an appeal, saying his cli-ents were not bad people who had served their time and would pay the 25 million rupiah fine ($1,850) imposed on each.

“I told the judge I hope the prosecutors are on the same page, because if they file an appeal, whether we like it or not we have to deal with it,” he said.

Foreign journalists wanting to report in Indonesia must get a special visa. Those detained in the past for illegal reporting have been deported immediately or given short prison terms.

Two French journalists were given jail terms of two and a half months last year after being caught in Indonesia’s Papua province trying to make a documentary about the separatist movement while on tourist visas. (afp)

But far from being insurmount-able, many of the EU’s challenges are self-inflicted, the bloc’s own chief executive admits. Ambitions exceed capabilities and promises are broken. On the ground, there is chaos, willful obstruction or just plain incompetence.

EU nations are “moving slowly at a time when they should be running,” European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker recently told lawmakers. “The gap between the pledges and what is on the table must be reduced,” he said. “Otherwise we are losing all kinds of credibility.”

The arrival of more than 700,000 people this year is ratcheting up tensions. Many EU countries are blaming Germany — the preferred home of many seeking sanctuary or jobs in Europe — for encouraging the masses to continue making the perilous journey.

The controversial razor-wire border fence in Hungary, with its echoes of Europe’s darker past, has begun to seem like a reasonable option to Slovenia and Austria. Police and the military now stand alongside guards on Europe’s borders. Speed is of the essence in tackling the crisis. Increasingly cold weather is a new enemy, as the EU and member states race to set up shelters along thousands of kilometers (miles) of the “migrant route” out of Greece northwest to Austria.

The vast amounts of money that the EU often throws at its challenges are being grudgingly mustered — but cash and policy changes have so far proved woe-fully inadequate.

Yet neither the tragic recent deaths in the Aegean; nor the scenes of shivering migrants trudg-ing through Balkan mud; nor the mounting chaos and squalor in asylum centers in even wealthy Germany should come as any sur-prise. Since the drowning of more than 350 migrants off Italy two years ago pushed leaders to vow a comprehensive response, there has mainly been foot-dragging and bickering.

The frontline in this fight is Greece — where more than half a million people have arrived this year alone. Many of them are Syr-ians fleeing conflict and coming to Europe via Turkey. Greece has been overwhelmed. Already battling a severe economic crisis, Athens is unable to stop — let alone register and fingerprint — the sheer num-bers coming through.

Beyond this, Greece has proved incapable of even accepting help from others. It has dithered about EU aid money and stymied hu-manitarian groups trying to erect tents on islands where no shelter exists. Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras has committed to increas-ing Greece’s reception capacity to 50,000 places from around 10,000

currently. But Athens has no obvi-ous plan for how and where this will happen.

But given Greece’s debt moun-tain, and the austerity imposed on citizens, no one dares criticize the country in public, and the govern-

ment has appeared too proud to accept help.

After the recent EU-Balkans mini-summit, Tsipras said the lead-ers’ plans contained “absurd pro-posals” and that he rejected them.

One would have created “nearly

an entire city of 50,000 refugees.” Another could have allowed coun-tries to block refugees coming from a neighbor, which Tsipras said would create “a domino effect” going backward into countries like Greece. (ap)

MOSCOW — The Russian military has conducted a series of ballistic and cruise missile launches from sites across the country in the latest demonstration of the na-tion’s resurgent military might. The Defense Ministry said Friday the exercise has involved launches from sites on the ground, at sea and in the air in what appeared to be one of the largest such maneuvers this year.

The war games come as foreign ministers from Russia, the United States, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Iran and a dozen of other countries are meeting in Vienna to discuss a possible settle-

ment for the war in Syria.The exercises involved the

launch of a Kalibr cruise missile from a Russian ship in the Caspian Sea. Earlier this month, Russian navy ships in the southern Caspian launched 26 such missiles at targets in Syria as part of Moscow’s air campaign, which began Sept. 30.

As part of the maneuvers, the Russian navy also launched inter-continental ballistic missiles from two nuclear submarines in the Bar-ents Sea and the Sea of Okhotsk, while a ground-based Topol inter-continental ballistic missile was

launched from the Plesetsk pad in northwestern Russia.

The drills also included Tu-160s strategic bombers launching cruise missiles at practice targets at the Pemboi shooting range in the northern Komi region and the Kura shooting range on the far eastern Kamchatka Peninsula. An Iskander cruise missile was launched at a practice target on the Kapustin Yar shooting range in southern Russia.

The ministry said the drills were intended to test transmitting combat orders from the top military leader-ship all the way down. (ap)

DENPASAR - Since a few days ago, teens of Indian journalists have made coverage at the Bali Police headquar-ters related to the case of Chotta Rajan alias Rajendra Sadashiv Nikalje alias Mohan Kumar posing the most danger-ous gangster in his home country. The official of the first class immigration office of Denpasar visited the Bali Police headquarters and checked the document of journalists, Monday (Nov. 2). The document includes passport, visa and permission from the Ministry of Com-munications and Informatics.

Acting Head of the First Class Den-pasar Immigration Office, Setyo Budi-wardoyo, said that it has become his tasks to oversee the activities of foreign-ers in Indonesia. It is meant to make sure which Indian media journalists making the coverage on the case.

“This case draws great public atten-tion, especially in India. We are merely making data collection and we shall

verify the permit and take necessary measures whether their visit has been in accordance with journalistic activities. They (Indian journalists—Ed) are totally 15 people, but only nine of them have showed their documents,” said Setyo who is also serving as the Head of Information and Communication at his office.

If any violations are found, added Set-yo, he will take action. However, it will be coordinated with the Directorate General of Immigration. “We merely make data collection. We have not been able to de-termine the offense,” said Setyo.

“If their documents are not complete, we prohibit them from doing their activi-ties (reporting—Ed). Some journalists brought their documents while some others admitted to leave it at hotel. Anyway, we’ll wait until this afternoon (Monday—Ed),” he said.

Spokesman of Bali Police, Hery Wiyanto, said that two Indian police officers arrived around 10:00 a.m. They

brought the original documents of the suspect Mohan Kumar. “Indian police are accompanied by the Consul General of India in Denpasar. They make data collection and examine the suspect,” said Hery.

Related to the arrival of the immigra-tion official, he said that it is their duty and authority. The immigration official has the tasks to check documents of foreigners, including the journalists that make news coverage at the Bali Police.

“We also check the membership of the journalists. Hopefully, they do not violate certain places prohibited to be entered when making the coverage,” he said.

According to him, journalists are partner of the Bali Police. However, they must comply with the rules in the Bali Police. “For example, they must ask for permission first to Profession and Security Division before covering. They may not come in as they like it,” he said. (kmb36)

One of the residents of Jalan Thamrin Denpasar, Irma, admitted that she is slightly disturbed by the installation project of box culvert taking place at this time. Especially the access into residential house be-comes obstructed and difficult. “We are disturbed by the box culvert placed at the entrance,” said Irma, Monday (Nov. 2).

Responding to this, a member of Commission III of the Denpasar House of Representatives, Wayan Suadi Putra, asked the project contractor to perform the instal-lation at night. It will avoid the congestion caused by the impact of the project. “The Municipality Waterworks (PDAM), for instance, install its pipes at night, so that the disturbances caused to road users are smaller,” he explained.

Suadi Putra greatly appreciated the drainage arrangement. This leg-islator even hoped the project can be accomplished on time according to the predetermined schedule. “We ask our partner to pay attention to the schedule, so that the project can

be completed on time,” said Suadi Putra accompanied by several col-leagues.

Suadi recognized that the dif-ficulties faced is high enough, especially the arrangement of drainage and pavement projects in crowded traffic areas. To maintain the quality of project, he suggested the process is carried out at night. “We observe the installation of box culvert in crowded traffic areas such as Jalan Thamrin and Jalan Sutomo can result in traffic jams. This condition is feared to affect the quality of project. On that account, it will be more effective if the box culvert installation is implemented at night,” he added.

Other than workmanship time, Suadi Putra also asked the agency to work on the project accompa-nied with intensive cross-agency coordination. For example, the Transportation Agency must do it so that the project in crowded traffic areas also gets the atten-tion. “At least, there are officers in charge of helping organize the

traffic, so that traffic congestion can be minimized. Based on field observation at the project site like on Jalan Thamrin, the traffic is very crowded. It is also common at the intersection of Jalan Sutomo,” said this PDI-P politician.

In addition to the working pat-tern, said Suadi, the deadline must remain to be noticed, except for multiyear projects should have been accomplished this mid-

December. “If indeed the prog-ress has not reached the target, the process can be worked on by overtime or at night, especially the projects in the area of crowded traffic,” he said.

In general, he greatly appreci-ated the arrangement of infrastruc-ture in the city of Denpasar. To that end, his institution also reminded of maintenance after the project has been accomplished. “The most

important is the post-project main-tenance. For example, the sidewalk should be secured, so that it is really intended for pedestrians. Not vice versa, it is even used as a peddling space. Currently, it needs cross-agency coordination, particularly the municipal police so that the sidewalk can be useful according to its function. If it is used for peddling or parking space, it will be quickly damaged,” he said. (kmb12)

DENPASAR - Alleged to have committed a prosecution, a Bulgarian tourist, Peter Iliev, was on trial on Monday (Nov. 2) in Denpasar District Court. The persecution afflicting the victim Svetoslava Petrova occurred at Villa Cattaleya on Jalan Tundun Penyu Ungasan, South Kuta.

Installation of box culvert causes congestion

DENPASAR - Drainage structuring project by using box culvert made by central government is seen at some road sec-tions in Denpasar. In fact, it results in congestion, especially in major road sections such as Jalan Imam Bonjol, Jalan Thamrin as well as other major roads. Therefore, there is a suggestion that the installation must be carried out at night.

Whether that’s good may depend on whether you really want to buy shoes, browse home listings or read comic books on your TV. The new Apple TV looks to be a capable device for those purposes, although it’s not flawless. Its streaming-TV features also trump those of its predecessor.

The new Apple TV will set you back $149, or $199 for a version with extra storage. Apple will still sell the old version for $69. Neither requires an iPhone or iPad, although either iDevice can simplify the Apple TV setup process.

- THE BASICSApple TV has been a dependable

streamer, but until now its repertoire was limited to a few dozen services. Sure, these included Netflix, Hulu and HBO. But Apple didn’t let you add other channels — say, competi-tive videogame play from Twitch.tv — on your own.

That’s all changed. The new Apple TV features an iPhone-like app store that lets you choose your own streaming services. And it’s no longer pushy about steering you to iTunes and other Apple services. You can easily customize the home screen with your favorites.

Video quality on the new Apple TV maxes out at full high definition, known technically as 1080p. That should be plenty for most people. Video enthusiasts may complain that it doesn’t support a higher-quality video standard called ultra-high defi-nition or 4K, as several other stream-ing boxes do. But there aren’t many 4K TVs or much programming for

them available yet.The Apple TV remote doesn’t have

a headphone jack, which other stream-ing devices like the Roku 3 and 4 and the Nvidia Shield offer to spare your family and roommates late at night. It can be tricky doing chores with a remote dangling from your headphone cords. What Apple TV offers instead is support for Bluetooth wireless head-phones — sold separately, of course, by Apple and others.

It’s not yet clear whether you’ll be able to stream video from Ama-zon and Google Play. Both compa-nies have competing video stores, and one sticking point could be the cut Apple takes on in-app digital sales. Other major services, includ-ing Google’s YouTube, are expected on the Apple TV.

- INNOVATIONSThe new Apple TV enables voice

searches using the Siri virtual assis-tant. Request “Seinfeld” or Jennifer Lawrence, and Apple TV will look through catalogs for iTunes, Hulu, Netflix, HBO and Showtime, with more to come. You can even ask for “good documentaries to watch.”

Although similar capabilities are available on other devices, Apple TV goes further in a few ways:

1. The remote replaces tradition-al rewind and forward buttons with a laptop-style trackpad. By sliding left and right, you control playback and navigate the on-screen key-board more quickly. Sliding down gets you settings and show details, when available. The remote also lets you control the TV’s power and vol-

ume directly, something I’ve seen only with TiVo video players.

2. You can control playback by asking Siri to rewind 45 seconds or jump ahead five minutes, though some services won’t let you for-ward past commercials. Saying “What did she say?” will rewind video 15 seconds and briefly turn on closed captioning, when avail-able. It works fully with iTunes for now, but the closed-captioning part doesn’t work with all third-party services yet.

3. You can ask Siri for a specific episode, such as the “How I Met Your Mother” episode with Katie Holmes. Guest stars tend to trip up rival devices.

- BEYOND STREAMINGSiri offers weather, stocks and

sports information. It was great for

tracking Tuesday’s World Series opener without watching the game. This feature isn’t unique to Apple TV, but unlike the competition, Apple TV feeds you info without interrupting your video by sliding up results from the bottom of the screen.

Apple TV catches up with rivals in enabling games. The remote has sensors that let you navigate spaceships and swing baseball bats by moving it around. But a bigger potential lies in bringing other apps to the big screen.

You can browse home to buy through Zillow and places to stay on vacation through Airbnb. Im-ages on the big TV gave me a better sense of these properties than phone browsing would. You can also shop through Gilt and QVC.

- ROOM TO GROWApple still needs to persuade

developers to make more apps that really exploit the larger, and often shared, TV screen. Many of the apps now available are limited to one user profile or account, making them difficult for others to use.

It would also be nice for Apple TV to work better with payment services. You can easily buy videos and games with your iTunes ac-count, but non-digital products are another story. Airbnb, for instance, will let you “favorite” places to stay, but you’ll need a phone or computer to book a room. It’s not exactly the relaxed, couch-potato experience you expect from TV.

Generally speaking, though, the new Apple TV has taken an important first step into a broader world. Plenty of devices do video and games well. With a new range of non-streaming apps, Apple has an opportunity to do much more than that. (ap)

NEW YORK — It turns out that Apple’s streaming-TV box — aptly named Apple TV — isn’t just for streaming anymore. Its latest incarnation, which ships this week, offers on the big screen just about anything you could previously only do on an iPhone or iPad.

REsulTs of overseas tour-ism promotion cannot be seen and enjoyed immediately as it takes process to convince travelers that destinations in Indonesia are very interesting to visit. Branding through promotion is an investment whose results cannot be calculated linearly. But all the countries do it with particular strategy because each country has different char-acters of travelers,” said Deputy Foreign Tourism Marketing Devel-opment at the Ministry of Tourism, Prof. Dr. I Gde Pitana.

Pitana pointed out that although the number of tourist visit is high but Singapore, Korea and Japan continue to make tourism promotion to other countries in order to secure the number of tourist visit to their respective country. “Other coun-tries are not stupid to promote their country with the budget reaching hundreds of billions. All the coun-tries want to increase tourist visits as much as possible,” he said.

However, he explained that the cost of overseas promotion is measured around two percent of the foreign exchange earnings obtained from foreign travelers.

Deputy Assistant of Market Development for Europe, Middle East, America and Africa, Nia Niscaya, undoubtedly explained that at the World Travel Market in London on November 2-5, 2015, the investment reached a total of IDR 1.6 billion and travel packages sold is worth IDR 954 billion or the promotion cost reaches about two percent.

Likewise, in the European In-ternational Business Travel Mart in Barcelona on November 17-19, 2015 the investment on promotion is worth IDR 8.1 billion with the

result of IDR 4.2 trillion. “Our cost is very efficient at all promotional events,” she said.

She targeted the tourist arrival from Europe, Middle East, America and Africa in 2015 will reach 1.67 million. Until August 2015, it has reached 858,000 travelers with the top five countries are Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan.

Pitana added that to improve the quality and quantity of Indonesian tourism, the Ministry of Tourism carries out branding competitions and participates in the ASEAN Tourism Forum (ATF) Awards or the so-called the ASEAN Travel As-sociation (ASEANTA) Awards.

The ASEANTA itself holds a competition in the form of ASE-ANTA Awards for Excellence, namely the awards to individuals or organizations considered to have contributed to the development, growth, and promotion of culture and tourism in the ASEAN region. “This award is expected to help boost Indonesia’s reputation as a top tourist destination in terms of high quality products and services as well as creative and innovative marketing effort,” said Pitana.

For ASEANTA Award, said Pitana, Indonesia will follow six categories namely the Best ASE-ANTA Tourism photo, Best ASE-ANTA Travel Article, Best ASE-ANTA Marketing & Promotional Campaign, Best ASEANTA New Tourist Attraction, Best ASEANTA Airline Program for ASEAN and the ASEAN Culture Preservation Efforts. “Through this ASEANTA award, we can improve Indonesia’s reputation as a leading tourist desti-nation in terms of quality products and services,” said Pitana.

Indonesian authorities detained Rajendra Sadashiv Nikalje at the weekend as he arrived in the popu-lar resort island of Bali on a flight from Sydney.

Police said Nikalje, who has been kept in a holding cell in Bali dressed in orange prison fatigues, would be flown directly back to In-dia at 23:00 (1500GMT) Tuesday.

“We will bring him to the airport and hand him to Interpol,” Bali po-lice spokesman Heri Wiyanto told AFP, referring to the international

criminal police organisation.“No special security arrange-

ment has been made.”Nikalje, known in India as Chho-

ta Rajan, had been evading police in several countries for years, with Interpol flagging him as a wanted man back in 1995.

The 55-year-old was arrested in Indonesia following a tip-off from Australian police, who confirmed in September the fugitive had been living there under another identity.

Nikalje was the alleged former

right-hand man of Mumbai crime kingpin Dawood Ibrahim, who is suspected of being behind the 1993 bomb blasts in the city that killed more than 250 people.

Nikalje later became Ibrahim’s rival, accused of running one of several underworld outfits that had a grip on India’s financial and entertainment capital in the 1980s and 1990s until a police crackdown.

Among other crimes, police ac-cused Nikalje in 2011 of ordering the murder of a prominent Mumbai crime reporter, who was gunned down in a drive-by shooting the same year. (afp)

EvEry Temple and Shrine has a special date for it annual Cer-emony, or “ Odalan “, every 210 days according to Balinese calendar, including the smaller ancestral shrine which each family possesses. Because of this practically every few days a ceremony of festival of some kind takes place in some Village in Bali. There are also times when the entire island celebrated the same Holiday, such as at Ga-lungan, Kuningan, Nyepi day, Saraswati day, Tumpek Landep day, Pagerwesi day, Tumpek Wayang day etc.

The dedication or inauguration day of a Temple is considered its birth day and celebration always takes place on the same day if the wuku or 210 day calendar is used. When new moon is used then the celebration always happens on new moon or full moon. The day of course can differ the religious celebration of a temple lasts at least one full day with some temple celebrating for three days while the celebration of Besakih temple, the Mother Temple, is never less than 7 days and most of the time it lasts for 11 days, depending on the importance of the occasion.

The celebration is very colorful. The shrine are dressed with pieces of cloths and sometimes with brocade, sailings, decorations of carved wood and sometimes painted with gold and Chinese coins, very beauti-fully arranged, are hung in the four corners of the shrine. In front of shrine are placed red, white or black umbrellas depending which Gods are worshipped in the shrines.

In front of important shrine one sees, besides these umbrellas soars, tridents and other weapons, the “umbul-umbul”, long flags, all these are prerogatives or attributes of Holiness. In front of the Temple gate put up “Penjor”, long bamboo poles, decorated beautifully ornaments of young coconut leaves, rice and other products of the land. Most beautiful to see are the girls in their colorful attire, carrying offerings, arrangements of all kinds fruits and colored cakes, to the Temple. Every visitor admires the grace with which the carry their load on their heads.

Vivi Rumadana started her career with the Reser-vation Department in 2003 and later moved into the role of Assistant Director of Sales for MICE. She has now been promoted to

Director of Sales – MICE where she will be responsi-ble for driving this very im-portant segment. She will be overseeing the MICE department and, along with her team, will seek out new opportunities as the Resort grows this segment.

“With the professional-ism of our MICE team, along with the manage-ment’s support, I believe I can drive and lead the team to finish 2015 on very posi-tive note, while also start-ing to build a strong result for 2016,” says Vivi.

“I am delighted that we have such talent within our own Sales and Mar-keting Team that we can promote to these critical roles,” adds Ms Kamal Haer, Area Director of Sales and Marketing, Bali Resorts. “These appoint-ments further strengthen a great winning team at In-terContinental Bali Resort and strongly support IHG’s ‘Room to Grow’ strategy. I would like to congratulate Margi, Dewi, Arya and Vivi, and I am confident that they will take their areas to new heights.”

‘Room to Grow’ IHG supports and develops their people to pursue significant careers. This is achieved through personal devel-opment plans, structured learning, on-the-job re-views, and the IHG job referral programme.

JIMBArAN - InterContinental Bali resort is pleased to announce several promotions within its Sales & Marketing team as part of InterContinental Hotels Group’s (IHG) ‘room to Grow’ philosophy.

“Where is the strengthening of the economic structure? Nothing, so far we just talk only. Our exports even go down and so does our exchange rate. Thus, our purchasing power and competitiveness also go down. Where is a strengthening?” said a lecturer from the Udayana Univer-sity, Prof. Dr. Ketut Rahyuda, in Denpasar.

Rahyuda added that so far the in-vestment remains for individual and group interests, not for the interests of the region. Only a few results of

the investment touch the community. Moreover, in Bali more investment in tourism sector results in capital flight reaching more than 60 to 70 percent to outside Bali.

“The investors bring along the interest of conglomeration, not the interests of Bali. Bali can only get relatively small amount of hotel and restaurant tax and does not get to the community,” he explained. Never-theless, added Rahyuda, Bali is still in need of investment provided that it is a productive investment so that

it can produce and utilize Balinese labor. It is different from investment in the service sector that applies more technology with high expertise and skill.

“Thus, the carrying capacity of investment to make Bali more pro-ductive is not available. Moreover, our leaders always give the oppor-tunity to investors in service sector involving high expertise and skill, so that it cannot be reached by local community,” he said.

He predicted that Bali’s economy in 2016 will remain complicated. Probably the economic growth will not reach five percent. It will be get-ting worse if the leaders in Bali do not direct the funding for the develop-ment in the real sector. (kmb32)

It is reflected in the rise of foreign products penetrating the market in Bali, and has even explored traditional markets. Including, the entry of foreign human resources has been start-ing to happen in accordance with the existing rules, such as Chinese labor.

“In any case, we must try to prepare ourselves to face it. To that end, it is necessary to appreciate the entrepreneurs that have committed and been resilient as well as can survive in any climate and have continuous spirit,” he said.

According to Kadin Bali, the types of businesspeople are di-vided into four categories namely those in rescue zone category—the entrepreneurs just moving to get short-term advantage; recov-ery category—those in recovery phase; survive category; and the fourth is developed category—those who are creative and in-novative in developing their business. “Employers that are in recovery phase should be helped together,” he said.

Expert Staff for Economy

and Finance of the Denpasar Municipality Luh Gede Hariasih, also said that the AEC has been around the corner, so that the entrepreneurs must make prepa-ration to face it. “The AEC is already on the verge of doorstep. On that account, it needs to con-sider how to deal with the arrival of competitors from outside the country,” she said.

Head of the Bali Tourism Office AA Gede Yuniartha Putra said that Denpasar government given awards to entrepreneurs that have an important and strategic significance because it poses recognition of the ser-vices, competence and profes-sionalism owned businesses to wider public. “This award will positively encourage them to face competition and build human resources in the constel-lation of international commu-nity,” he said.

I Gusti Made Dhordy as the owner of Villa Taman at Belayu explained that excellent service is one of the keys to winning competition in the era of free trade. “In order to exist, promi-nent services should be applied in the object of tourism services, accommodation and other ser-vices,” he concluded.

Apparently investment does not yet support the strengthening of economic structure of Bali. Most results of the investments in the majority of service sector evaporate out. In other words, interests of the regions have even not been touched by the so abundant investment on the Island of the Gods.

Due to the volcanic ash cloud arising from Mount Rinjani in Lom-bok, Indonesia, the conditions in the vicinity of Denpasar Airport, Bali, are unsafe for flying, the Jetstar management noted in a statement published on its official website on Tuesday.

“As a result, Jetstar has cancelled some flights on Tuesday (Novem-ber 4) (AEST) to and from Bali following assessment of the latest information from the Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre,” it noted.

“We plan to provide a further update this afternoon at the earli-

est regarding the rest of Tuesday’s flights that are not on the cancelled list,” it stated further.

The airline affirmed that it would resume flights once the conditions improved and will update custom-ers if poor flying conditions lead to further cancellations.

Virgin and Jetstar said they would make a decision on Wednes-day’s flights after being updated by the Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre.

“We continue to monitor the situ-ation closely,” Virgin said.

On Tuesday, Virgin cancelled all 10 flights to and from the popular holiday destination while Jetstar cancelled 14.

The cancellations follow similar disruptions in July when volcanic ash cloud from an erupting Mount Raung in East Java shut down flights in and out of Denpasar for several days.

Among the flights affected by the

volcano included Jetstar Flight No. JQ-44 destined for Melbourne and Virgin Australia Flight No. VA-060 to Perth. (ant)

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — Will Smith is not expecting any pushback from the National Football League over his upcoming football drama “Concussion.”

“I don’t think it’s going to generate too much controversy (with the NFL). There will be a little difficulty in swallowing it, as it was for me. I’m a football dad, you know,” said the 47-year-old father of three.

Smith was honored Sunday at the Hollywood Film Awards for his work in “Concussion.” He plays Dr. Bennet Omalu, the foren-sic neuropathologist who uncovered the dangerous effects of head trauma on the brain in football.

“You don’t want it to be true,” Smith said on the red carpet. “I think that the science is really irrefutable and the story of Dr. Bennet Omalu is such a powerful story. I think that it will be difficult at first for some, but I don’t think that it’s going to be that big of an issue. It’s something that we have to accept.”

“Concussion” made headlines after the New York Times reported that the film was altered to placate the National Football League, a charge director Peter Landesman and Sony have denied.

The Grammy-winning rapper, who recently appeared on the remix of Bomba Estereo’s song, “Fiesta,” also discussed his return to music after a decade-long hiatus.

“It’s such a new exploration for me. The most fun that I have. There’s nothing that compares to being on the stage with a hit record. So you know I’ve been performing a little bit with (DJ Jazzy) Jeff. We’ve been sneaking out and going to places and working out a little bit. So I think it’s going to be magnificent.” (ap)

Her fellow country stars, includ-ing Lady Antebellum and Reba McEntire, surprised the Georgia-born singer with performances of her songs, including “Walkaway Joe,” and “She’s In Love With the Boy,” during the 53rd annual ASCAP Country Music Awards on Monday in Nashville, Tennessee.

“Since her debut in the early ‘90s, Trisha Yearwood has given young women a voice through song, with powerful lyrics about love, loss and staying true to your own self,” Timberlake said.

Yearwood was given the Voice of Music Award, while Ashley Gorley was named the songwriter of the

year and Sam Hunt was named songwriter-artist of the year by the music licensing agency. Hunt also received the award for song of the year for “Leave the Night On,” writ-ten by Hunt and Josh Osborne.

The Grammy-winning artist has sold more than 12 million albums and is also a successful cooking show host and cook book author, Timberlake noted, adding, “Girl-friend is busy.”

Yearwood and her husband, Garth Brooks, joined Carter earlier in the week in Memphis, Tennessee, to help build a home as a part of the charity Habitat for Humanity.

Carter, who is undergoing treat-ment for cancer, received a standing ovation from the crowd of song-writers, singers and music industry executives.

He said he was an admirer of Yearwood’s work for a long time, but in the past decade has been working with her and Brooks to support the charity, which has helped 5 million people with home construction and repairs.

Yearwood proudly showed off an example of her hard work while on the red carpet prior to the show.

“I have a blister,” Yearwood said. “I don’t want anybody to go, ‘She’s a singer, she’s not going to work.’ I think I work harder than I should because I don’t want anybody to think I am slacking.”

Yearwood said that she’s not known as a songwriter, so she was especially proud to get recognized by songwriters in Music City.

“The highest compliment I can receive is when I can record a song and the writer is happy with my rendition,” Yearwood said. (ap)

LONDON — Glenn Close is getting ready to reprise her starring role as silent screen diva Norma Desmond in “Sunset Boulevard” — by taking to the treadmill. Close said Monday that her preparation involved working out. “You have to have strong muscles in you to project that kind of energy on the stage.”

“So I’m getting on the treadmill, which is not something I really love to do,” she told reporters at the English National Opera’s Coliseum theater.

Close won a Tony Award in 1995 for the Broadway production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical, based on Billy Wilder’s 1950 film.

Two decades on, she will play Desmond — the faded femme fa-

tale who declares “I am big — it’s the pictures that got small” — for 43 performances at the Coliseum starting April 1.

The production will be “semi-staged,” with the opera’s orchestra onstage alongside the cast.

The 68-year-old “Fatal Attrac-tion” star has been nominated for six Academy Awards. She has won three Emmys and three Tonys.

Next year’s run of “Sunset Bou-levard” will be Close’s first time on the London stage since she starred in “A Streetcar Named Desire” at the National Theatre in 2002

Close said Norma Desmond “haunted me after I left her,” and playing her again would be like discovering a new character.

Enforcement of the ASEAN Eco-nomic Community (AEC) results in subtly economic colonization. These conditions have even occurred long before the free-market policies are applied. One

of them is the flooding imported products and the entry of foreign work-

ers to Indonesia, especially Bali. Deputy Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Kadin) Bali in charge of Organization and Membership I Gusti Ngurah Adnyana stated this opinion recently.

According to Ngurah Adnyana, people condi-tioned to purchase or use the products of foreign companies operating in Indonesia is a piece of for-eign role in economic sector. As a result, the flows of money that can be actually deposited in the country are largely taken home by the foreign companies.

He added, even though the AEC has not been en-forced in full, without being realized the presence of foreigners on this island has undermined the pillars of social economy. “Today we are already in global competition. Like or dislike it, we have entered the global competition,” he said.

EvEry Temple and Shrine has a special date for it annual Cer-emony, or “ Odalan “, every 210 days according to Balinese calendar, including the smaller ancestral shrine which each family possesses. Because of this practically every few days a ceremony of festival of some kind takes place in some Village in Bali. There are also times when the entire island celebrated the same Holiday, such as at Ga-lungan, Kuningan, Nyepi day, Saraswati day, Tumpek Landep day, Pagerwesi day, Tumpek Wayang day etc.

The dedication or inauguration day of a Temple is considered its birth day and celebration always takes place on the same day if the wuku or 210 day calendar is used. When new moon is used then the celebration always happens on new moon or full moon. The day of course can differ the religious celebration of a temple lasts at least one full day with some temple celebrating for three days while the celebration of Besakih temple, the Mother Temple, is never less than 7 days and most of the time it lasts for 11 days, depending on the importance of the occasion.

The celebration is very colorful. The shrine are dressed with pieces of cloths and sometimes with brocade, sailings, decorations of carved wood and sometimes painted with gold and Chinese coins, very beauti-fully arranged, are hung in the four corners of the shrine. In front of shrine are placed red, white or black umbrellas depending which Gods are worshipped in the shrines.

In front of important shrine one sees, besides these umbrellas soars, tridents and other weapons, the “umbul-umbul”, long flags, all these are prerogatives or attributes of Holiness. In front of the Temple gate put up “Penjor”, long bamboo poles, decorated beautifully ornaments of young coconut leaves, rice and other products of the land. Most beautiful to see are the girls in their colorful attire, carrying offerings, arrangements of all kinds fruits and colored cakes, to the Temple. Every visitor admires the grace with which the carry their load on their heads.

JIMBArAN - InterContinental Bali resort is pleased to announce several promotions within its Sales & Marketing team as part of InterContinental Hotels Group’s (IHG) ‘room to Grow’ philosophy.

Whether that’s good may depend on whether you really want to buy shoes, browse home listings or read comic books on your TV. The new Apple TV looks to be a capable device for those purposes, although it’s not flawless. Its streaming-TV features also trump those of its predecessor.

The new Apple TV will set you back $149, or $199 for a version with extra storage. Apple will still sell the old version for $69. Neither requires an iPhone or iPad, although either iDevice can simplify the Apple TV setup process.

- THE BASICSApple TV has been a dependable

streamer, but until now its repertoire was limited to a few dozen services. Sure, these included Netflix, Hulu and HBO. But Apple didn’t let you add other channels — say, competi-tive videogame play from Twitch.tv — on your own.

That’s all changed. The new Apple TV features an iPhone-like app store that lets you choose your own streaming services. And it’s no longer pushy about steering you to iTunes and other Apple services. You can easily customize the home screen with your favorites.

Video quality on the new Apple TV maxes out at full high definition, known technically as 1080p. That should be plenty for most people. Video enthusiasts may complain that it doesn’t support a higher-quality video standard called ultra-high defi-nition or 4K, as several other stream-ing boxes do. But there aren’t many 4K TVs or much programming for

them available yet.The Apple TV remote doesn’t have

a headphone jack, which other stream-ing devices like the Roku 3 and 4 and the Nvidia Shield offer to spare your family and roommates late at night. It can be tricky doing chores with a remote dangling from your headphone cords. What Apple TV offers instead is support for Bluetooth wireless head-phones — sold separately, of course, by Apple and others.

It’s not yet clear whether you’ll be able to stream video from Ama-zon and Google Play. Both compa-nies have competing video stores, and one sticking point could be the cut Apple takes on in-app digital sales. Other major services, includ-ing Google’s YouTube, are expected on the Apple TV.

- INNOVATIONSThe new Apple TV enables voice

searches using the Siri virtual assis-tant. Request “Seinfeld” or Jennifer Lawrence, and Apple TV will look through catalogs for iTunes, Hulu, Netflix, HBO and Showtime, with more to come. You can even ask for “good documentaries to watch.”

Although similar capabilities are available on other devices, Apple TV goes further in a few ways:

1. The remote replaces tradition-al rewind and forward buttons with a laptop-style trackpad. By sliding left and right, you control playback and navigate the on-screen key-board more quickly. Sliding down gets you settings and show details, when available. The remote also lets you control the TV’s power and vol-

ume directly, something I’ve seen only with TiVo video players.

2. You can control playback by asking Siri to rewind 45 seconds or jump ahead five minutes, though some services won’t let you for-ward past commercials. Saying “What did she say?” will rewind video 15 seconds and briefly turn on closed captioning, when avail-able. It works fully with iTunes for now, but the closed-captioning part doesn’t work with all third-party services yet.

3. You can ask Siri for a specific episode, such as the “How I Met Your Mother” episode with Katie Holmes. Guest stars tend to trip up rival devices.

- BEYOND STREAMINGSiri offers weather, stocks and

sports information. It was great for

tracking Tuesday’s World Series opener without watching the game. This feature isn’t unique to Apple TV, but unlike the competition, Apple TV feeds you info without interrupting your video by sliding up results from the bottom of the screen.

Apple TV catches up with rivals in enabling games. The remote has sensors that let you navigate spaceships and swing baseball bats by moving it around. But a bigger potential lies in bringing other apps to the big screen.

You can browse home to buy through Zillow and places to stay on vacation through Airbnb. Im-ages on the big TV gave me a better sense of these properties than phone browsing would. You can also shop through Gilt and QVC.

- ROOM TO GROWApple still needs to persuade

developers to make more apps that really exploit the larger, and often shared, TV screen. Many of the apps now available are limited to one user profile or account, making them difficult for others to use.

It would also be nice for Apple TV to work better with payment services. You can easily buy videos and games with your iTunes ac-count, but non-digital products are another story. Airbnb, for instance, will let you “favorite” places to stay, but you’ll need a phone or computer to book a room. It’s not exactly the relaxed, couch-potato experience you expect from TV.

Generally speaking, though, the new Apple TV has taken an important first step into a broader world. Plenty of devices do video and games well. With a new range of non-streaming apps, Apple has an opportunity to do much more than that. (ap)

Apple TV brings iPhone-like apps to the big screen

NEW YORK — It turns out that Apple’s streaming-TV box — aptly named Apple TV — isn’t just for streaming anymore. Its latest incarnation, which ships this week, offers on the big screen just about anything you could previously only do on an iPhone or iPad.

REsulTs of overseas tour-ism promotion cannot be seen and enjoyed immediately as it takes process to convince travelers that destinations in Indonesia are very interesting to visit. Branding through promotion is an investment whose results cannot be calculated linearly. But all the countries do it with particular strategy because each country has different char-acters of travelers,” said Deputy Foreign Tourism Marketing Devel-opment at the Ministry of Tourism, Prof. Dr. I Gde Pitana.

Pitana pointed out that although the number of tourist visit is high but Singapore, Korea and Japan continue to make tourism promotion to other countries in order to secure the number of tourist visit to their respective country. “Other coun-tries are not stupid to promote their country with the budget reaching hundreds of billions. All the coun-tries want to increase tourist visits as much as possible,” he said.

However, he explained that the cost of overseas promotion is measured around two percent of the foreign exchange earnings obtained from foreign travelers.

Deputy Assistant of Market Development for Europe, Middle East, America and Africa, Nia Niscaya, undoubtedly explained that at the World Travel Market in London on November 2-5, 2015, the investment reached a total of IDR 1.6 billion and travel packages sold is worth IDR 954 billion or the promotion cost reaches about two percent.

Likewise, in the European In-ternational Business Travel Mart in Barcelona on November 17-19, 2015 the investment on promotion is worth IDR 8.1 billion with the

She targeted the tourist arrival from Europe, Middle East, America and Africa in 2015 will reach 1.67 million. Until August 2015, it has reached 858,000 travelers with the top five countries are Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan.

Pitana added that to improve the quality and quantity of Indonesian tourism, the Ministry of Tourism carries out branding competitions and participates in the ASEAN Tourism Forum (ATF) Awards or the so-called the ASEAN Travel As-sociation (ASEANTA) Awards.

The ASEANTA itself holds a competition in the form of ASE-ANTA Awards for Excellence, namely the awards to individuals or organizations considered to have contributed to the development, growth, and promotion of culture and tourism in the ASEAN region. “This award is expected to help boost Indonesia’s reputation as a top tourist destination in terms of high quality products and services as well as creative and innovative marketing effort,” said Pitana.

For ASEANTA Award, said Pitana, Indonesia will follow six categories namely the Best ASE-ANTA Tourism photo, Best ASE-ANTA Travel Article, Best ASE-ANTA Marketing & Promotional Campaign, Best ASEANTA New Tourist Attraction, Best ASEANTA Airline Program for ASEAN and the ASEAN Culture Preservation Efforts. “Through this ASEANTA award, we can improve Indonesia’s reputation as a leading tourist desti-nation in terms of quality products and services,” said Pitana.

Indonesian authorities detained Rajendra Sadashiv Nikalje at the weekend as he arrived in the popu-lar resort island of Bali on a flight from Sydney.

Police said Nikalje, who has been kept in a holding cell in Bali dressed in orange prison fatigues, would be flown directly back to In-dia at 23:00 (1500GMT) Tuesday.

“We will bring him to the airport and hand him to Interpol,” Bali po-lice spokesman Heri Wiyanto told AFP, referring to the international

criminal police organisation.“No special security arrange-

ment has been made.”Nikalje, known in India as Chho-

ta Rajan, had been evading police in several countries for years, with Interpol flagging him as a wanted man back in 1995.

The 55-year-old was arrested in Indonesia following a tip-off from Australian police, who confirmed in September the fugitive had been living there under another identity.

Nikalje was the alleged former

right-hand man of Mumbai crime kingpin Dawood Ibrahim, who is suspected of being behind the 1993 bomb blasts in the city that killed more than 250 people.

Nikalje later became Ibrahim’s rival, accused of running one of several underworld outfits that had a grip on India’s financial and entertainment capital in the 1980s and 1990s until a police crackdown.

Among other crimes, police ac-cused Nikalje in 2011 of ordering the murder of a prominent Mumbai crime reporter, who was gunned down in a drive-by shooting the same year. (afp)

But far from being insurmount-able, many of the EU’s challenges are self-inflicted, the bloc’s own chief executive admits. Ambitions exceed capabilities and promises are broken. On the ground, there is chaos, willful obstruction or just plain incompetence.

EU nations are “moving slowly at a time when they should be running,” European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker recently told lawmakers. “The gap between the pledges and what is on the table must be reduced,” he said. “Otherwise we are losing all kinds of credibility.”

The arrival of more than 700,000 people this year is ratcheting up tensions. Many EU countries are blaming Germany — the preferred home of many seeking sanctuary or jobs in Europe — for encouraging the masses to continue making the perilous journey.

The controversial razor-wire border fence in Hungary, with its echoes of Europe’s darker past, has begun to seem like a reasonable option to Slovenia and Austria. Police and the military now stand alongside guards on Europe’s borders. Speed is of the essence in tackling the crisis. Increasingly cold weather is a new enemy, as the EU and member states race to set up shelters along thousands of kilometers (miles) of the “migrant route” out of Greece northwest to Austria.

The vast amounts of money that the EU often throws at its challenges are being grudgingly mustered — but cash and policy changes have so far proved woe-fully inadequate.

Yet neither the tragic recent deaths in the Aegean; nor the scenes of shivering migrants trudg-ing through Balkan mud; nor the mounting chaos and squalor in asylum centers in even wealthy Germany should come as any sur-prise. Since the drowning of more than 350 migrants off Italy two years ago pushed leaders to vow a comprehensive response, there has mainly been foot-dragging and bickering.

The frontline in this fight is Greece — where more than half a million people have arrived this year alone. Many of them are Syr-ians fleeing conflict and coming to Europe via Turkey. Greece has been overwhelmed. Already battling a severe economic crisis, Athens is unable to stop — let alone register and fingerprint — the sheer num-bers coming through.

Beyond this, Greece has proved incapable of even accepting help from others. It has dithered about EU aid money and stymied hu-manitarian groups trying to erect tents on islands where no shelter exists. Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras has committed to increas-ing Greece’s reception capacity to 50,000 places from around 10,000

currently. But Athens has no obvi-ous plan for how and where this will happen.

But given Greece’s debt moun-tain, and the austerity imposed on citizens, no one dares criticize the country in public, and the govern-

ment has appeared too proud to accept help.

After the recent EU-Balkans mini-summit, Tsipras said the lead-ers’ plans contained “absurd pro-posals” and that he rejected them.

One would have created “nearly

an entire city of 50,000 refugees.” Another could have allowed coun-tries to block refugees coming from a neighbor, which Tsipras said would create “a domino effect” going backward into countries like Greece. (ap)

MOSCOW — The Russian military has conducted a series of ballistic and cruise missile launches from sites across the country in the latest demonstration of the na-tion’s resurgent military might. The Defense Ministry said Friday the exercise has involved launches from sites on the ground, at sea and in the air in what appeared to be one of the largest such maneuvers this year.

The war games come as foreign ministers from Russia, the United States, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Iran and a dozen of other countries are meeting in Vienna to discuss a possible settle-

ment for the war in Syria.The exercises involved the

launch of a Kalibr cruise missile from a Russian ship in the Caspian Sea. Earlier this month, Russian navy ships in the southern Caspian launched 26 such missiles at targets in Syria as part of Moscow’s air campaign, which began Sept. 30.

As part of the maneuvers, the Russian navy also launched inter-continental ballistic missiles from two nuclear submarines in the Bar-ents Sea and the Sea of Okhotsk, while a ground-based Topol inter-continental ballistic missile was

launched from the Plesetsk pad in northwestern Russia.

The drills also included Tu-160s strategic bombers launching cruise missiles at practice targets at the Pemboi shooting range in the northern Komi region and the Kura shooting range on the far eastern Kamchatka Peninsula. An Iskander cruise missile was launched at a practice target on the Kapustin Yar shooting range in southern Russia.

The ministry said the drills were intended to test transmitting combat orders from the top military leader-ship all the way down. (ap)

DENPASAR - Since a few days ago, teens of Indian journalists have made coverage at the Bali Police headquar-ters related to the case of Chotta Rajan alias Rajendra Sadashiv Nikalje alias Mohan Kumar posing the most danger-ous gangster in his home country. The official of the first class immigration office of Denpasar visited the Bali Police headquarters and checked the document of journalists, Monday (Nov. 2). The document includes passport, visa and permission from the Ministry of Com-munications and Informatics.

Acting Head of the First Class Den-pasar Immigration Office, Setyo Budi-wardoyo, said that it has become his tasks to oversee the activities of foreign-ers in Indonesia. It is meant to make sure which Indian media journalists making the coverage on the case.

“This case draws great public atten-tion, especially in India. We are merely making data collection and we shall

verify the permit and take necessary measures whether their visit has been in accordance with journalistic activities. They (Indian journalists—Ed) are totally 15 people, but only nine of them have showed their documents,” said Setyo who is also serving as the Head of Information and Communication at his office.

If any violations are found, added Set-yo, he will take action. However, it will be coordinated with the Directorate General of Immigration. “We merely make data collection. We have not been able to de-termine the offense,” said Setyo.

“If their documents are not complete, we prohibit them from doing their activi-ties (reporting—Ed). Some journalists brought their documents while some others admitted to leave it at hotel. Anyway, we’ll wait until this afternoon (Monday—Ed),” he said.

Spokesman of Bali Police, Hery Wiyanto, said that two Indian police officers arrived around 10:00 a.m. They

brought the original documents of the suspect Mohan Kumar. “Indian police are accompanied by the Consul General of India in Denpasar. They make data collection and examine the suspect,” said Hery.

Related to the arrival of the immigra-tion official, he said that it is their duty and authority. The immigration official has the tasks to check documents of foreigners, including the journalists that make news coverage at the Bali Police.

“We also check the membership of the journalists. Hopefully, they do not violate certain places prohibited to be entered when making the coverage,” he said.

According to him, journalists are partner of the Bali Police. However, they must comply with the rules in the Bali Police. “For example, they must ask for permission first to Profession and Security Division before covering. They may not come in as they like it,” he said. (kmb36)

One of the residents of Jalan Thamrin Denpasar, Irma, admitted that she is slightly disturbed by the installation project of box culvert taking place at this time. Especially the access into residential house be-comes obstructed and difficult. “We are disturbed by the box culvert placed at the entrance,” said Irma, Monday (Nov. 2).

Responding to this, a member of Commission III of the Denpasar House of Representatives, Wayan Suadi Putra, asked the project contractor to perform the instal-lation at night. It will avoid the congestion caused by the impact of the project. “The Municipality Waterworks (PDAM), for instance, install its pipes at night, so that the disturbances caused to road users are smaller,” he explained.

Suadi Putra greatly appreciated the drainage arrangement. This leg-islator even hoped the project can be accomplished on time according to the predetermined schedule. “We ask our partner to pay attention to the schedule, so that the project can

be completed on time,” said Suadi Putra accompanied by several col-leagues.

Suadi recognized that the dif-ficulties faced is high enough, especially the arrangement of drainage and pavement projects in crowded traffic areas. To maintain the quality of project, he suggested the process is carried out at night. “We observe the installation of box culvert in crowded traffic areas such as Jalan Thamrin and Jalan Sutomo can result in traffic jams. This condition is feared to affect the quality of project. On that account, it will be more effective if the box culvert installation is implemented at night,” he added.

Other than workmanship time, Suadi Putra also asked the agency to work on the project accompa-nied with intensive cross-agency coordination. For example, the Transportation Agency must do it so that the project in crowded traffic areas also gets the atten-tion. “At least, there are officers in charge of helping organize the

traffic, so that traffic congestion can be minimized. Based on field observation at the project site like on Jalan Thamrin, the traffic is very crowded. It is also common at the intersection of Jalan Sutomo,” said this PDI-P politician.

In addition to the working pat-tern, said Suadi, the deadline must remain to be noticed, except for multiyear projects should have been accomplished this mid-

December. “If indeed the prog-ress has not reached the target, the process can be worked on by overtime or at night, especially the projects in the area of crowded traffic,” he said.

In general, he greatly appreci-ated the arrangement of infrastruc-ture in the city of Denpasar. To that end, his institution also reminded of maintenance after the project has been accomplished. “The most

important is the post-project main-tenance. For example, the sidewalk should be secured, so that it is really intended for pedestrians. Not vice versa, it is even used as a peddling space. Currently, it needs cross-agency coordination, particularly the municipal police so that the sidewalk can be useful according to its function. If it is used for peddling or parking space, it will be quickly damaged,” he said. (kmb12)

DENPASAR - Alleged to have committed a prosecution, a Bulgarian tourist, Peter Iliev, was on trial on Monday (Nov. 2) in Denpasar District Court. The persecution afflicting the victim Svetoslava Petrova occurred at Villa Cattaleya on Jalan Tundun Penyu Ungasan, South Kuta.

Public prosecutor Nyoman Bela P. Atmaja in front of the judge led by Beslin Sihomb-ing read out the indictment on Monday afternoon. The 45-year-old defendant was accompanied by his legal counsel Yudi and interpreter Mila. In the indictment of Bela presented at the trial revealed that the pros-ecution occurred on August 4, 2005. Trigger of the persecution was a matter of child pick-up. Due to the prosecution, the defendant suffering some injuries and made a medical report at Bhayangkara Hospital Denpasar is charged under Article 351 paragraph 1 of the Criminal Code. (kmb37)

Installation of box culvert causes congestion

DENPASAR - Drainage structuring project by using box culvert made by central government is seen at some road sec-tions in Denpasar. In fact, it results in congestion, especially in major road sections such as Jalan Imam Bonjol, Jalan Thamrin as well as other major roads. Therefore, there is a suggestion that the installation must be carried out at night.

TERNATE - Indonesia does not need to im-port fish as the country’s production is sufficient to meet its domestic requirement, including the needs of its industry and people, an observer stated.

“What it might need to import is certain types of fish of good quality that are difficult to obtain in Indonesia in order to meet the demand of hotels,” Mahmud Hasan of North Maluku’s Muhammadiyah University affirmed on Monday.

The solution for the fishery industry, which is facing shortage of raw materials in Indone-sia, is not to import but to increase domestic production of fishing companies or traditional fishermen.

He pointed out that Marine Affairs and Fisheries Minister Susi Pudjiastuti’s policy to impose a moratorium on the issuance of licenses for foreign fishing ships and to optimize efforts to prevent fish poaching have contributed sig-nificantly to the domestic fish production ,and thus, the industry’s need for fish could be met.

Hasan said that the government’s program to increase fish production by providing assistance in the form of fish catching tools for fishermen had also increasingly helped to boost national fish production and to reduce the import of fish, which is deemed unnecessary.

“I do not understand the basic reason for the trade minister to allow the import of fish. This policy only benefits certain parties and ignores the interests of the fishermen in Indonesia,” the observer emphasized.

According to Hasan, the fish import policy will threaten the livelihood of fishermen in In-donesia if it is not lifted, particularly the interest of traditional fishermen. This is because they will have to face a fall in prices as a result of the arrival of imported fish.

The government should instead focus on ways to increase Indonesia’s fish exports. One of Indonesia’s main exports in the face of global market competition is its genuine fish commod-ity. (ant)

WASHINGTON — U.S. factory activity grew last month at its slow-est pace since May 2013 as manu-facturers pared their stockpiles and cut jobs.

The Institute for Supply Manage-ment said Monday that its index of factory activity slipped to 50.1 in October from 50.2 in September. The figures barely signal growth, which is any reading above 50.

U.S. manufacturers have been squeezed this year as a strong dol-lar and weak economies in China and other key foreign markets have cut into exports. A high dollar makes U.S. goods pricier overseas while lowering prices for imports that compete with American prod-ucts.

Monday’s report showed that a measure of hiring fell sharply, from 50.5 to 47.6. That means manufac-turers cut jobs last month.

Still, the report contained some bright signs: New orders jumped, suggesting that business may pick up in coming months. And a gauge of production rose for the first time since July.

“We’re hopeful this will mark the low,” Ian Shepherdson, an

economist at Pantheon Macroeco-nomics, said in a note to clients. “It looks as though the downshift in manufacturing activity may be coming to an end.”

Both manufacturers and their customers are cutting back on stockpiles, which slows production as companies sell existing goods rather than order new ones. But that trend slowed last month and may soon be complete, said Bradley Holcomb, chair of the ISM’s manu-facturing survey committee.

Sharp declines in oil and natural gas prices have led drilling compa-nies to reduce orders for steel pipe and other equipment used to build rigs. That trend, combined with the strong dollar, has helped lower the ISM’s index from roughly 57 late last year to 50.1. The ISM is a trade group of purchasing managers.

Strong car sales, which are run-ning at their highest level in a de-cade, are one of the few trends that are working in the opposite direc-tion and boosting factory output.

A slowdown in China, the world’s second-largest economy, has delivered a direct hit on con-struction equipment makers such

as Caterpillar. Yet there are signs that China’s economy is stabilizing: A survey of its manufacturers over the weekend found that its factory activity is still contracting but at a slower pace.

Other reports point to ongoing weakness in U.S. manufacturing, however. Factory production has fallen for two straight months, ac-cording to figures compiled by the Federal Reserve.

And orders for long-lasting fac-tory goods, an indication of future output, have tumbled in the past two months, a Commerce Department report last week indicated.

Many retailers and other busi-nesses stockpiled too many goods in the winter and spring and were left with crowded warehouses and store shelves. As they work off the excess supply, they have cut back on orders for new goods.

A slowdown in stockpiling was a big reason the U.S. economy weak-ened in the July-September quarter, the government said Thursday. The economy expanded at a 1.5 percent annual rate in the third quarter, far below the 3.9 percent pace in the April-June quarter. (ap)

Obama praised the rare bipartisan cooperation behind the deal, saying that 2-year agreement puts the government on a responsible path.

“It should finally free us from the cycle of shutdown threats and last-minute fixes and allows us to, therefore, plan for the future,” Obama said in brief remarks as he signed the bill.

Tuesday was the deadline for averting a default on U.S. financial obligations by raising the debt limit.

The Senate gave final approval to the House-passed bill late last week and sent it to Obama. He signed it in the Oval Office, shortly before departing on a day trip to New Jersey and New York.

The legislation raises the limit on the government’s debt through March 2017, pushing reconsideration of what in recent years has become a contentious issue until after the elections for the White House and Congress in November 2016.

The measure also sets federal spending through the 2016 and 2017 fiscal years, and eases strict caps on spending by providing an additional $80 billion, split evenly between military and domestic programs. The Appropriations committees must write legislation to reflect the spending and they face a Dec. 11 deadline to finish the work.

Negotiations over the budget, which began weeks ago, wrapped up quickly last week as Republican Rep. Paul Ryan prepared to become the new House speaker.

Obama negotiated the agreement with Republican and Demo-cratic congressional leaders who were intent on steering the in-stitution away from the brinkmanship and government shutdown threats that have haunted lawmakers for years. Republican Rep. John Boehner of Ohio, who stepped down both as speaker and from his seat in Congress at the end of last week, said he felt a sense of urgency to reach a deal before turning the gavel over to Ryan. Other lawmakers wanted the issue taken off the table as they look ahead to next fall’s elections.

Obama called the deal “a signal of how Washington should work” and urged lawmakers to keep up the collaboration.

The $80 billion in additional spending is paid for with a mix of spending cuts and revenue increases touching areas from tax compliance to spectrum auctions.

The deal would also avert a looming shortfall in the Social Secu-rity disability trust fund that threatened to slash benefits, and head off an unprecedented increase in Medicare premiums for outpatient care for about 15 million beneficiaries. (ap)

“There are matters that need to be anticipated such as in certain regions where social tensions were recently reported. We should pay serious attention to this,” Minister/State Secretary Pratikno quoted the president as saying on Tuesday.

President Jokowi held a meeting with representatives of the General Elections Commission (KPU), the General Elections Supervisory Board (Bawaslu), and the Honor-ary Council of the General Elec-tions (DKPP) at the State Palace

on Tuesday.During the meeting, the presi-

dent was accompanied by Pratikno and Home Affairs Minister Tjahjo Kumolo, among others.

Pratikno said the other potential areas of conflict included regions where the head candidates were still questioned by the public.

“We have to pay serious atten-tion to this. Also, attention should be given to regions where there is only one candidate,” he affirmed.

He stated that likely problems

to be faced during the simultane-ous regional head elections were also discussed on Monday during a cabinet meeting.

“We discussed it further today, and the KPU, Bawaslu, and DKPP offered complete explanations. The president heard their reports,” noted Pratikno.

On Monday, President Jokowi had called for detecting any poten-tial conflict ahead of the regional elections.

“He just now ordered us all, especially the National Intelligence Agency (BNN), the national police chief, and the Ministry of Home Affairs, to ensure early detection

of any potential conflict in several regions,” Home Affairs Minister Tjahjo Kumolo remarked on Mon-day.

He noted that the conditions have so far been peaceful before the simultaneous regional elections scheduled in several regions on December 9.

He revealed that sufficient bud-getary support had been made available for holding the elections in nine provinces, 224 districts, and six cities.

“Some regions, however, are still facing a budget deficit although their need for election funds could still be met by the provincial government.

This is still being discussed by the concerned legislative assemblies and the election supervisory body (Bawaslu),” he stated. The min-ister remarked that Rp7.1 trillion worth of funds have been provided through regional budgets.

He remarked that at the meeting, the president had also ordered close monitoring of voters’ lists.

He hoped the elections would run smoothly, successfully, and democratically. On November 4, a team from the office of the coordi-nating minister for political, secu-rity and legal affairs, Bawaslu, and the police will visit some conflict-prone regions. (ant)

BATAM - Two British journalists given short jail terms in Indonesia Tuesday for working without correct visas said they were relieved to be going home but disap-pointed they were treated as criminals for doing their jobs.

Neil Bonner, 32, and Rebecca Prosser, 31, were sentenced Tuesday to two-and-a-half months in prison, less than the five months sought by prosecutors who ac-cused them of misusing their tourist visas to make a documentary about piracy near the western island of Batam.

Unless prosecutors appeal against the sentence, their lawyer said the pair, who have been detained since May, could walk free after time spent in custody awaiting trial is taken into account.

Prosser said it was a “big relief” to be going home but condemned their sentence as a “criminalisation of journalists”.

“I think this makes it a more dangerous

landscape for other journalists in Indone-sia,” she told reporters in Batam after the sentence was passed.

Bonner thanked their supporters but expressed sadness because “this is jour-nalism on trial, and we’ve been found guilty”.

“I don’t think journalism is a crime,” he said.

Presiding judge Wahyu Prasetyo Wi-bowo said the defendants had violated their visas but admitted their wrongdoing and apologised.

The pair arrived in Indonesia to shoot a documentary about piracy for production house Wall to Wall with funding from National Geographic, according to their indictment.

It added they had hired several Indone-sians to act out a scene of a tanker being boarded by a group of pirates off Batam. The island is in the Malacca Strait, a major

shipping lane.Their lawyer Aristo Pangaribuan ex-

pressed regret that the prosecution was considering filing an appeal, saying his cli-ents were not bad people who had served their time and would pay the 25 million rupiah fine ($1,850) imposed on each.

“I told the judge I hope the prosecutors are on the same page, because if they file an appeal, whether we like it or not we have to deal with it,” he said.

Foreign journalists wanting to report in Indonesia must get a special visa. Those detained in the past for illegal reporting have been deported immediately or given short prison terms.

Two French journalists were given jail terms of two and a half months last year after being caught in Indonesia’s Papua province trying to make a documentary about the separatist movement while on tourist visas. (afp)

BALI DIRECTORY

With all of the ballots counted early on Monday, the prelimi-nary results showed that the party won more than 49 percent of the votes. It was projected to get 317 seats in the 550-member parliament, restoring the party’s single-party majority that it had lost in a June election.

Turkish financial assets were buoyant Monday after the AKP’s victory as investors hoped it will bring an end to a long period of political uncertainty. The Turkish lira was one big beneficiary from the result, surging by 5 percent or so on foreign exchange markets.

“The whole world must show respect. So far I haven’t seen such a maturity from the world,” Erdogan said after attending prayers at a mosque and visiting

his parents’ graves.It was an apparent reference

to Western media’s often criti-cal coverage of AKP’s policies in the past few years, including the ruling party’s backsliding on democratic reforms and moves to muzzle critical voices.

International election observ-ers on Monday noted that elec-tions were free and peaceful but criticized media restrictions in the run-up to the vote, including the seizure by the government of an opposition media company and criminal investigations of journalists for allegedly sup-porting terrorism or defaming Erdogan. The observers said the incidents of violence as well as physical attacks on party of-ficials had hindered many of the

contestants’ ability to campaign freely.

“Unfortunately we came to the conclusion that this cam-paign was unfair and was char-acterized by too much violence and by too much fear,” Andreas Gross, who headed a delegation of parliamentarians from the Council of Europe, told a news conference in Ankara. There were no allegations of large-scale fraud.

Any hope that Erdogan would ease media repression evaporated on Monday after a court ordered police to seize all copies of a weekly political magazine for sug-gesting on its front page that the aftermath of the election would mark the start of a civil war in the country. Nokta magazine said on its website that its chief editor and a manager were expected to be questioned for allegedly inciting people to violence.

Erdogan had called for a new election after Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu failed to form a coalition with any of the three

opposition parties in parliament after the June vote.

Sunday’s election was held amid renewed violence and Erdogan and Davutoglu argued that only a single-party majority could restore stability.

Fighting between Turkey’s se-curity forces and Kurdish rebels has left hundreds of people dead and shattered an already-fragile peace process. Two recent mas-sive suicide bombings at pro-Kurdish gatherings that killed some 130 people, apparently car-ried out by an Islamic State group cell, also raised tensions.

“The will of the people ... opted for stability,” Erdogan said. “The developments in that short span of time made the people say: ‘there is no way out other than stability.’”

Most analysts had expected AKP to fall short of a majority again, but the preliminary results suggest it picked up millions of votes at the expense of a nation-alist party and a pro-Kurdish party. (ap)

TEHRAN, Iran — Iran’s supreme leader says the slogan “Death to America” is not aimed at the American people, but rather American policies.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s website says Tuesday he made the comment while meeting with Iranian students ahead of the anniversary of the takeover of the U.S. em-bassy in Tehran on Nov. 4, 1979. Militant students stormed the compound and took 52 Americans hostage for 444 days.

The two countries have had no diplo-matic relations since then. However, cur-rent President Hassan Rouhani has made efforts to improve relations, including a landmark nuclear agreement reached with world powers this past summer.

Khamenei says the “aim of the slogan is not death to American people. The slogan means death to U.S. policies and arrogance.” He says the slogan has “strong support” in Iran. (ap)

KATHMANDU — A bus packed with passengers riding both inside and on its roof veered off a mountain road in north-west Nepal on Tuesday, killing 30 people and injuring 35 others, officials said.

Government administrator Shiv Ram Gelal said the bus drove off the road near Ramche village and rolled about 150 me-ters (500 feet) down a slope.

Gelal said the bus was overcrowded because of a severe fuel shortage in the country that has limited transportation.

Police, soldiers and local villagers helped recover injured people and bodies from the wreckage.

Police were investigating the accident, which occurred about 80 kilometers (50 miles) northwest of the capital, Kathmandu. Accidents in Nepal are generally caused by poorly maintained roads and vehicles.

The severe fuel shortage has forced people to travel on the roofs of buses, which generally is not allowed for safety reasons. It has become common to see bus roofs packed with people and police rarely stop them.

Ethnic protesters have blocked a key border point with India since September, which has prevented the import of fuel and other supplies. Nepal normally gets all of its fuel from India. (ap)

The ruling Justice and Development Party, or AKP, secured a stunning victory in Sunday’s snap parliamentary election, sweeping back into single-party rule only five months after losing it.

It is an age few reach while still on tour. Yet the player who beat Rafael Nadal in three sets to take the Swiss Indoors title on Sunday seemed far from retirement.

“I have a very clear plan how ‘16 is going to be until December,” Federer told The Associated Press in an interview after winning his hometown event for a seventh time. “That is the discussion I’m having with my wife right now. Are we go-ing to be home for Christmas or not? Then ‘17 is around the corner for me as well already.

“I’m thinking way ahead,” said the Swiss great, whose victory in Basel lifted him to No. 2 in the rankings published Monday. Why wouldn’t he? At 34, the numbers for his season speak of a player in top form and fitness.

A 58-9 record going into this week’s Paris Masters, including six titles and two Grand Slam finals. Only Novak Djokovic in his career-best year has beaten Federer in any tourna-ment final, including denying him a record-extending 18th major title at

Wimbledon and the U.S. Open.After Paris, Federer goes to Lon-

don to play at the ATP finals for a 14th straight year. Expert managing of his schedule, including a family vacation in September, has kept him sharp when others — including his younger self, he says — are worn down in November.

“That is the goal with having the time off with the kids, with my wife,” said Federer, whose family — wife Mirka, their 6-year-old twin girls Myla Rose and Charlene Riva, and 18-month-old twin boys Leo and Lenny — often join him on tour.

One product of his keen tennis mind is the now-trademark move to sneak up and return serve while ap-proaching the net. “The sneak attack is a fun thing for me to do,” he said. “How many times can you hit a slice and be excited about it?

“Sometimes you have got to just do something a bit different. Just be young in your mind and say, ‘Just go for it. Who cares?’”

Fun-seeking is also why Federer says he will play into December in

the International Premier Tennis League at places like India, Sin-gapore and Dubai, where he has a home. For now, Federer enjoys his tennis too much to think too deeply about stopping. “As long as I haven’t decided what I’m going to do yet, I’ve got to keep a schedule as well which I feel like I’m playing for many more years to come,” he said. Federer previously said he will not announce a long-term plan to end his career, so avoiding a farewell tour.

“I hope it’s going to come gradu-ally and that I will know when the right time is,” he said. “But I don’t want to think about it too much.

“If you get injured then it comes more slowly but the mind could all of a sudden go, pfft, that’s it. Who knows? If there’s a thing with family that is just so much more important than playing tennis.” He is sure that, as with his Christmas 2016 plans, parents and family will be part of the retirement conversation.

“I would let them know about it rather than saying I’ve taken the decision already,” Federer said. “I would probably ask them, ‘Do you think this is a good idea?’ “Ev-erybody will agree with me at that point anyway. But we’re not there yet.” (ap)

MEXICO CITY - Nico Rosberg put his Texas blues behind him on Sunday to win the first Mexican Grand Prix in 23 years and show triple world champion Mercedes team mate Lewis Hamilton how it feels to finish second. The German’s fourth victory of the year, and 12th of his career, ended Hamilton’s three-race winning streak a week after the Briton secured his third title.

On a sunny afternoon, with the 135,000-strong crowd creating a party atmosphere, the Briton was left feeling sore after questioning a team instruction to pit for fresh tyres after Rosberg had already done so. The German, whose late mistake in Austin handed Hamilton the victory that clinched the title, led cleanly away from pole position and finished 1.9 seconds ahead after also setting the fastest lap. It was Mercedes’ 10th one-two in 17 races.

“This is really the best podium of the year, what a place to win” said Rosberg, addressing a cheering mass of more than 100,000 from a podium overlooking the stadium complex. “Amazing day, great race,” added the German.

With both championships already decided, Mercedes having retained their constructors’ crown in Russia last month, the race win was all that mattered for the dominant duo at the Hermanos Rodriguez circuit. Ros-berg’s win lifted him to second in the championship, 21 points clear of Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel who failed to score after a crash that brought out the safety car on the 52nd of the 71 laps. The German was unhurt. Finland’s Valtteri Bottas finished third for Williams. (rtr)

The entire 2015 MotoGP field has been summoned to an extraordinary meeting with series chiefs at Va-lencia amid the controversy over Valentino Rossi and Marc Marquez’s Sepang clash. With tensions between Honda and Yamaha still high, and fans and the paddock polarised, all riders and team managers will meet with

Carmelo Ezpeleta, chief executive of MotoGP com-mercial body Dorna Sports, and FIM president Vito Ippolito on Thursday afternoon.

An FIM statement said the gathering had been called “following the events that occurred at the Malaysian Grand Prix and further developments over the follow-ing week and given the exceptional circumstances.”

The traditional pre-race press conference that takes place at every grand prix has been cancelled for Va-lencia. Last week Ippolito issued an opening letter in which he called on the factions involved in the row to stop ‘poisoning’ MotoGP and causing ‘anarchy’.

Rossi and Marquez’s Sepang collision was the culmination of growing bitterness following previous incidents between the pair this season, and amid the Italian’s accusations that Marquez was actively trying to hamper his championship bid in the preceding race at Phillip Island.

Race direction gave Rossi three penalty points on his licence for taking Marquez out in Malaysia, triggering a back of the grid start for the Valencia title decider, which Rossi goes into with a seven-point lead over Yamaha team-mate Jorge Lorenzo. Rossi has lodged an appeal against the verdict with the Court of Arbitration for Sport. (ap)

Federer still having too much fun to think about retiring

BASEL, Switzerland — Like many dads, Roger Federer is talking with his family about how to spend Christmas. But un-like most, the father-of-four has the 2017 holidays on his mind — on the eve of the tennis season when he will turn 36.

TABANAN - The region of Pupuan in Tabanan actu-ally has some tourist attrac-tions remaining very natural and potential. One of them is the Blemantung waterfall. Unfortunately, due to lack of signpost, many travelers espe-cially foreigners, are confused to look for this waterfall. Not a few visitors are forced to turn back because of confusion when looking for the location. Similarly, many residents of Tabanan, except for villagers of Pujungan, do not know about this waterfall.

To reach the Blemantung waterfall, visitors must ask local villagers of Pujungan. Under-standably, there is no official signpost. When arriving at the office of Pujungan headman, visitors should continue the journey westwards. Approxi-mately after two kilometers, you will find an entrance to the north. It is the usual driveway taken by visitors because there is no signpost so that visitors wishing to get to the waterfall may go too far and are forced to turn back. When entering the road to the north of about 300 meters, you will encounter a concrete road. Simply follow this road as far as 700 meters or approximately 30 minutes.

As soon as arriving at a concrete bridge, your journey cannot be resumed by vehicle but has to walk through the path passing through a coffee plantation of local residents. The distance is about one kilo-meter. Afterwards, visitors will pass the Taman Sari Temple. Location of the Blemantung waterfall is right behind the temple.

BARCELONA — If Spain coach Vicente del Bosque is serious about fielding the best possible team at this summer’s European Championships, then it’s time he shelved the Diego Costa experiment and gave the most productive striker in Spain a long-deserved chance.

No, this is not some harebrained scheme to somehow get Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo into Spain’s solid red. The answer to Spain’s trouble at filling the void left by David Villa is right under Del Bosque’s nose.

Rarely-mentioned Aritz Aduriz has quietly earned the opportunity to spearhead Spain’s attack, and Del Bosque needs to change tactics and call up the 34-year-old Athletic Bilbao marksman on Friday when he announces his list for upcom-ing friendlies against England and Belgium.

The former Real Madrid boss has given Costa more than a fair shake after pushing hard for the Brazilian to declare his playing allegiance with his adopted Spain. But one goal in nine appearances is enough time to know that Costa hasn’t meshed. He is also having a poor go of it this season at Chelsea, with only three goals in 14 matches. Add to that his bully-like behavior and it’s clear that the Costa option has run its course.

Del Bosque has already said that he “didn’t like” Costa’s violent conduct in a match against Arsenal in September that earned him a multi-match suspension, so he may be considering other strikers. Aduriz is not the sexiest choice, especially given his age, which would make any coach pause.

But he has been on an upward trend during the past three seasons following a move back to Bilbao, where he has honed his repertoire of skills, and he has consistently proven that he is among the best at finding the back of the net. Nobody, not even foreign stars Ronaldo and Neymar, have scored more goals for their clubs this season, and no other Spaniard comes close.

Aduriz has found the net 14 times in 18 games across all competitions

after starting the season with a four-goal burst across both legs of the Spanish Super Cup to stun Barcelona 5-1 on aggregate, and guide Bilbao to its first trophy in 31 years.

Ronaldo has 13 goals, while Neymar has nine. Among Spaniards, only the otherwise inconsistent Imanol Agirretxe with eight betters Aduriz’s Liga haul of seven. Aduriz has gotten better when most players start an irreparable decline and is thriving in his 15th season since his topflight debut.

A late bloomer after promising but ultimately mixed results at stints with Mallorca and Valencia, Aduriz has doubled his scoring production as Bilbao’s clear No. 1 option going forward.

Brought back to his former club to help replace Fernando Llorente after he forced his transfer to Juventus, Aduriz has slowly but surely won the praise of the Basque faithful by

leading the scoring in the past three seasons for the team that only fields local players.

After two consecutive campaigns with 18 goals in all competitions, Aduriz netted that amount in the league last season to lead the list of Spanish goalscorers and had a total of 26 goals overall. His continued strong performances this season earned him a one-year contract extension last month through the end of the 2016-17 campaign. In August, Del Bosque said that Aduriz has “his virtues” but that “we have other ideas about what the selection should be.”

Yet bringing Aduriz into the mix doesn’t mean that Del Bosque must scrap his “sweet revolution” to slowly rejuvenate Spain’s veteran side that won the last two European Championships and the 2010 World Cup before faltering at the 2014 World Cup. (ap)

LONDON — Within hours of being hired as Aston Villa man-ager, Remi Garde witnessed the magnitude of his task on Monday when Tottenham handed his new team a ninth loss in 11 Premier League games to leave it stranded at the bottom. Tottenham’s 3-1 victory kept the London club on the right path to a return to the Champions League and left Villa seemingly headed for the League Championship unless Garde can transform the team in the next two-thirds of the season.

“It’s not very easy but he must have confidence in his own ability and in the players to want to take the job,” said Kevin MacDonald, who remained in temporary charge as Garde watched from the directors’ box at White Hart Lane. “We caused ourselves a lot of problem by giving the ball away in silly areas.”

Only after Villa pulled one back in the 79th minute — with Jordan Ayew’s strike beating goalkeeper Hugo Lloris thanks to a deflection off Jan Vertonghen — did the team show any of the fighting spirit re-quired for a relegation scrap.

But Villa’s defense had taken only three minutes to be unpicked by a Tottenham team which is now five points behind leader Man-chester City in fifth place after go-ing a 10th league match unbeaten. Mousa Dembele cut in from the left, outmuscled Ciaran Clark and slotted the ball under Brad Guzan at the goalkeeper’s near post.

Villa midfielder Ashley West-wood was forced off in the 38th with a concussion after being caught by Mousa Dembele’s arm.

Play continued for around a minute before referee Mike Dean ushered on a doctor to treat the midfielder, who was left with blurred vision and a headache, MacDonald said. “I’m glad it wasn’t more serious,” MacDonald said. “It’s a bit of disappointment the referee played on.”

Perhaps the only accomplish-ment for Villa in the first half was preventing Tottenham from scor-ing again until stoppage time. That time it was Joleon Lescott’s failure to fully clear Danny Rose’s cross with a header that proved costly as 19-year-old Dele Alli netted his first home goal.

The hosts looked complacent in the second half, failing to convert domination into a more command-ing lead. But Tottenham responded to Ayew’s goal, with Kane sweep-ing the ball high into the net in stoppage time to complete a counterattack after being set up by Erik Lamela.

“Maybe it’s because we are young, maybe our mentality is always to go forward,” Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino said of Ayew’s goal. “We played well but we can do better. We are always ambitious ... perfection is difficult.”

But Tottenham hasn’t lost since the opening day of the season in the league. Villa hasn’t won since then — and doesn’t look like doing so any time soon. Premier League leader Manchester City is up next on Sunday when Garde, the former Lyon coach, will be in the dugout as Villa’s fifth manager in five years. (ap)

LONDON - Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho will be scrutinised more closely than ever as his ail-ing side take on Dynamo Kiev in Champions League Group G on Wednesday.

Despite having won the com-petition twice, with Porto and In-ter Milan, the Portugese is under increasing pressure now that the Premier League champions have been beaten five times in their past seven games.

They have slumped to 15th place in the table and key players such as last season’s player of the year, Eden Hazard, are badly out of form.

Although fans remain generally supportive, chanting Mourinho’s name during the 3-1 home defeat by Liverpool on Saturday, some players are becoming disenchanted, accord-ing to media reports.

That means it is another big week

for him, with the Kiev game followed by a visit to Stoke City, who knocked Chelsea out of the Capital One Cup on penalties last Tuesday.

The goalless draw away to Dy-namo two weeks ago was one of Chelsea’s better performances of a poor season. They hit the post twice and could easily have won, but fail-ing to do so left them on four points in Group G, one behind the Ukrai-nian champions.

Porto top the group with seven points and could extend their lead against Maccabi Tel Aviv, who have lost every game so far.

“Everyone can see how much hard work we are putting in and we are playing well, but the results are not coming for us,” Nigerian mid-fielder Jon Obi Mikel told reporters after the defeat by Liverpool.

“The goals and the wins are not coming, but you can see we are play-

ing for the manager and we are right behind him. There is no doubt about it. If anyone can turn this around I definitely think he is the one.”

Kiev’s Portuguese international Miguel Veloso also backed his com-patriot Mourinho, with a post on his Facebook page. “Say whatever you want to say,” he wrote.”Unfortunately, I had the chance to exchange a few words with this man only twice in my life. I already used to be his fan, now I am even more.” Dynamo, who have no injury problems, won 2-0 against Metalist Kharkiv at the weekend, a fourth successive win that kept them second on goal difference behind Shakhtar Donetsk at the top of the table.

In the Champions League, they scored a late equaliser to draw 2-2 at home to Porto and then won 2-0 in Tel Aviv before the first Chelsea game. (rtr)

photos it says show the raid, and Ger-man news agency dpa reported that 50 officers and tax inspectors took part in the operation. (ap)

Rooney ridiculed as United endures 325-minute goal drought

“Missing Person,” Man-chester police wrote on one of its Twitter accounts over the weekend. “Wayne Rooney last seen in the Traf-ford area wearing a red shirt, any sightings please inform colleagues.”

The misfiring Rooney is emblematic of United’s lack of goal threat through three consecutive drab 0-0 draws. Perhaps age is catching up with the 30-year-old captain, but he remains United’s

highest paid player.“I can imagine because

Wayne Rooney is a fantastic player, the expectation is much higher than another player in another club,” Unit-ed manager Louis van Gaal said. “But you have to give players time to come back in a certain shape. That is what we are doing and I have con-fidence in this player.”

The only game when Rooney has truly thrived this season was against Bru-

ges, scoring a hat trick in the Champions League playoffs. It should prove far tougher on Tuesday at Old Trafford against CSKA Moscow af-ter Rooney had just two ef-forts on target in the Russian capital in last month’s 1-1 draw. Anthony Martial scored United’s goal that night and the team has failed to find the net in 325 minutes — and counting — since then. No wonder the fans have taken to chanting “We’re Man United, we want to attack.”

“Now we have a bad period, because it’s a bad period when you don’t score — football is scoring goals,”

Van Gaal said. “We have to improve that and we are busy with that and I hope that we shall score against CSKA Moscow.”

At Crystal Palace on Sat-urday, Rooney managed only one shot on goal. “He gives more than only scor-ing goals,” Van Gaal said. “He is our captain. He is also an example for the whole team so he has more credits than any other player.”

It’s tight in Group B. Wolfsburg has a two-point lead over United and CSKA, and PSV Eindhoven is a point further back in fourth place. (ap)

LONDON — With two goals in 10 Premier League games, Wayne Rooney’s struggles are not just a source of glee for opposing fans. Even the local police are ridiculing the Manchester United striker.

Wayne Rooney is a fantastic player, the expectation is much higher than another player in another club,” Unit-ed manager Louis van Gaal said. “But you have to give players time to come back in a certain shape. That is what we are doing and I have con-fidence in this player.”

The only game when Rooney has truly thrived this season was against Bru-

ges, scoring a hat trick in the Champions League playoffs. It should prove far tougher on Tuesday at Old Trafford against CSKA Moscow af-ter Rooney had just two ef-forts on target in the Russian capital in last month’s 1-1 draw. Anthony Martial scored United’s goal that night and the team has failed to find the net in 325 minutes — and counting — since then. No wonder the fans have taken to chanting “We’re Man United, we want to attack.”

“Now we have a bad period, because it’s a bad period when you don’t score — football is scoring goals,”

Van Gaal said. “We have to improve that and we are busy with that and I hope that we shall score against CSKA Moscow.”

At Crystal Palace on Sat-urday, Rooney managed only one shot on goal. “He gives more than only scor-ing goals,” Van Gaal said. “He is our captain. He is also an example for the whole team so he has more credits than any other player.”

It’s tight in Group B. Wolfsburg has a two-point lead over United and CSKA, and PSV Eindhoven is a point further back in fourth place. (ap)

LONDON — With two goals in 10 Premier League games, Wayne Rooney’s struggles are not just a source of glee for opposing fans. Even the local police are ridiculing the Manchester United striker.
