‘Miss Peregrine’ bests ‘Deepwater Horizon’ at box office
NEW YORK — In a box-office rarity, three acclaimed, original films from studios opened in theaters over the weekend. Only one caught on. Tim Burton’s latest fantastical oddity, “Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children,” debuted with $28.5 million, leading North America ticket sales, according to studio estimates Sunday.
Peter Berg’s well-reviewed disaster movie “Deepwater Horizon,” about the 2010 oil rig explosion, however, failed to tap North American moviegoers, opening with an estimated $20.6 million. And Disney’s uplifting chess prodigy tale “Queen of Katwe,” starring David Oyelowo and Lupita Nyong’o, brought in a dismal $2.6 million in its national expansion. Originality, that often lamented missing ingredient in studio products, can lead to box office success, just as it can disappointment. For 20th Century Fox, the draw of “Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children” was predicated on the idiosyncrasy of Burton funneled into an accessible tale, adapted from Ransom Rigg’s popular young-adult novel. “It validates the whole notion of why we made this film, which is something that’s very original and creative,” said Chris Aronson, president of domestic distribution at Fox. “At least I feel that that’s what audiences are looking for. There’s some fatigue with the same old, same old. And if there’s anything this movie isn’t, it’s that.” The film cost $110 million to make, meaning it will need a strong performance overseas to be profitable. It started out with $36.5 million in 59 markets. Regardless, it’s a comeback of sorts for Burton at the box office. It’s his best opening since 2012’s lackluster “Dark Shadows.” Lionsgate’s “Deepwater Horizon,” starring Mark Wahlberg, also cost at least $110 million to make, yet it only managed $20.6 million in its debut. The film,

Jewel thieves put gun to Kim Kardashian’s head, tie her up in Paris bathroom PARIS - Masked men put a gun to reality TV star Kim Kardashian’s temple, left her tied up in the bathroom of her luxury residence in Paris and stole millions of dollars’ worth of jewellery in the early hours of Monday, police and her publicist said. Kardashian, wife of rapper Kanye West, later left France aboard a private jet from Le Bourget airport after having spoken to investigators. Five attackers, wearing ski masks and clothes with police markings, struck around 3 a.m. (0100 GMT) inside the exclusive apartment block where Kardashian was staying while attending Paris Fashion Week, a police source told Reuters. Two of the men entered Kardashian’s apartment after threatening the night guard with a hand gun. Kardashian was not beaten, but the robbers put a handgun against her temple before tying her up, the source said. iTELE television said she had been tied up with packing tape. The robbers stole a box with 5-6 million euros’ ($5.6-$6.7 million) worth of jewels and a ring worth

In a crowded autumn weekend at the box office, “Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children” came out on top. which first premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival, brought all the big-budget flare of an action movie (including a nearly life-size replica of the Deepwater Horizon oil rig) to the April 2010 explosion, which killed 11 men and for weeks spilled millions of barrels of oil into the Gulf of Mexico. The film’s performance is another blow for the struggling Lionsgate, which has had difficulty finding hits since “The Hunger Games” saga finished. Its stock price has fallen and the departure of its movie chief Rob Friedman was announced last month. It does however have a film, Damien Chazelle’s “La La Land,” due later this year, that’s expected to be an Oscar favorite.(ap)

about 4 million euros, the source said. Kardashian was discovered “badly shaken but physically unharmed”, according to her publicist, Ina Treciokas. As news of the event spread, West abruptly ended a performance in New York less than an hour into his set. “I’m sorry I have a family emergency, I have to stop the show,” West told the audience in video tweeted by fans at the Meadows Festival in Queens. The Paris apartment block is a discreet building behind the city’s Madeleine church, with several secret entrances, often frequented by movie and music stars who pay up to 15,000 euros a night. The source said the attackers fled on bicycles. Police found the night guard in the staircase, his hand and feet bound. Kardashian was in Paris with her mother Kris Jenner and her sisters Kendall Jenner and Kourtney Kardashian to attend the fashion week. The rest of the family stayed in a hotel. The robbery set social media alight, with many users expressing disbelief at the latest headline-grabbing event in the life of a TV star who life is
continually documented on screen and the internet. “Looking forward to accompanying album and TV show detailing event,” said Twitter user Jay. Most comments, however, were supportive. “Kim Kardashian is a mother, a wife, daughter and sister. Despite the fact that you don’t like her, being held up at gun point is not funny,” said one post by Alieuisha. Paris has seen several armed robberies on high-end jewelry stores in recent months. The armed robbery could add to worries about safety in Paris, hit by a series of attacks by Islamist militants last year. Tourist numbers to what is traditionally the most visited city in the world, fell 6.4 percent in the first half of 2016 as many Asians and Americans stayed away. “We worry about the image of Paris. This will be all over the news channels, imagine the negative publicity,” Nathalie Kosciusko-Morizet, head of the conservative opposition in Paris, told Europe 1 radio.(rtr) News can also be heard in “Bali Image” at Global Radio FM 96.5 from 9.30 until 10.00 am.

TABANAN - Throughout the year 2016, there were four cases of maternal mortality. All the cases happened due to heart failure after giving birth through cesarean section. To avoid similar cases, the Tabanan Health Agency requires all the health services to report the childbirth cases by cesarean section and monitor the mother.
Section Head of the Maternal, Child and Family Planning Services at the Tabanan Health Agency, I Gusti Ayu Seputri Widhiyani, said on Sunday (Oct. 2) that the health agency has provided mass learning about the cases of maternal and perinatal mortality in Tabanan. The learning is followed by all medical personnel in the health care services at the health
centers as well as government and private hospitals. The lessons given are in appropriate with the case assessment results done by the experts from both internal and external team of the Sanglah Hospital and the Bali Health Agency. Health... Continued on page 2

“We will disseminate the results of this study to all health centers represented by the head of the health centers and midwives coordinator, all hospitals in Tabanan, health clinics and midwife practices as learning so that such similar cases will not happen again,” she said. According to Serpi, in 2016 there were four cases of maternal mortality due to heart failure. All of these deaths occurred on the way because it happened suddenly and was not predicted in advance. “This heart problem is experienced by mothers giving birth via cesarean section. It is not predictable because the mother had no previ-
ous history on alarming disease,”’ explained Serpi. Symptoms of heart failure causing the death, added Serpi, occurred in women after surgery on day 10 to day 21. To prevent the case from happening again, the Tabanan Health Agency required all the health services to intervene in order to immediately refer the mother giving birth by surgery or post surgery with shortness although it is only a bit. Hospitals are required to handle it in multidisciplinary manner and examine completely with the help of laboratory and X-rays. “So, never decide in a hurry if there are no problems,” said Serpi. Through intervention measures and multidisciplinary handling, added Serpi, the health service is able to save three people where the mothers were slightly forced

NEGARA —
For almost in the past two months, the fishermen in Jembrana have been experiencing famine of sardine fish. All this time, this type of fish has become the main commodity of catch fishermen in Jembrana. But lately they are difficult to catch sardine. They believe that the fish habitat has removed due to climate change occurred recently.

In such cases, even though the mothers only suffered complaint about claustrophobic and their claustrophobic symptoms disappeared, in fact based on the X-rays and echocardiography it is found the symptom of cardiomyopathy or enlargement of heart where if left without treatment in a few days it can lead to heart failure. “So, the current standard operating procedures require all the hospitals to report their patients of mother giving birth especially after the cesarean section. They will be monitored closely by health center officers,” explained Serpi. Based on data up to August 2016, a total of 3,344 mothers gave birth in Tabanan where 962 of them had a cesarean section and four people died. (kmb24)
Fishermen of Jembrana face sardine famine
The fishermen are bringing the fish to shore
Activities
Some fishermen met on Sunday (Oct. 2) admitted that they rarely catch sardine like the other months in the waters of the South Sea. “We have been sailing around, but hard to get the fish. Occasionally our fish basket is empty,” said Apik, a crew of purse seine at Pengambengan. To increase the income, he and a number of other crews seek another job in mainland. Some of them became timber porter and construction worker. In the meantime, this sardine famine is predicted to be happening until March 2017. The weather condition in the Bali Sea is unfavorable for habitat of catch fish as the impact of La Nina. The Research Institute for Marine Observations (SEACORM) released data analysis that the catch of sardine during the El Nino last year was quite a lot, while in the current La Nina the
catch of fishermen decreased and even disappeared from the waters of Bali. Widodo S. Pranowo, from the Center for Research and Development of Marine and Coastal Resources explained the impact of La Nina on the catch depends on the strength of the weather anomalies whose peak is predicted to happen in October to November. This condition also happens in other fishing areas. The water of tuna producer also experiences a shift. The Head of the Research and Marine Observations (SEACORM), Nyoman Radiaka, told reporters that the fish movement is also affected by climate change. It can disappear at particular habitat but then changed by other fish species rarely encountered before. Thus, it becomes a challenge for the SEACORM to provide a map of fishing. (kmb26)

Mission Complete: Rosetta says farewell with comet crash-landing
BERLIN - The Rosetta spacecraft ended its historic mission on Friday, crashing on the surface of the dusty, icy comet it has spent 12 years chasing in a hunt that has provided insight into the early days of the solar system and captured the public’s imagination. The spacecraft has stalked comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko across more than 6 billion km (3.7 billion miles) of space, collecting a treasure trove of information on comets that will keep scientists busy for the next decade. Scientists in the European Space Agency control centre in Darmstadt, Germany, clapped and hugged as confirmation of the end of the mission came at 1119 GMT. Rosetta completed its free-fall descent at the speed of a sedate walk, joining the probe Philae, which landed on the comet in November 2014 in what was considered a remarkable feat of precision space travel. “Thank you Rosetta,” ESA director general Jan Woerner said on Twitter. He was among some 300 people who had also gathered before dawn at a conference room at the International Astronautical Congress in Guadalajara, Mexico, to watch a live webcast as Rosetta’s signal disappeared from monitors, simultaneously with the team in Germany. “It was a good ending,” Klaus Schiling, who worked on mission
planning for Rosetta 27 years ago with prime contractor Airbus , told Reuters at the Mexico space conference. “There were so many ups and downs with this mission.” PLANET FORMATION The mission managed several historic firsts, such as getting a spacecraft into orbit around a comet and the unprecedented landing of a probe on the surface. A handful of previous spacecraft had snapped pictures and collected data as they flew past their targets. But, dashing hopes for more discoveries, Philae, the 100 kg (220 lb) probe, bounced several times on landing before getting stuck against a cliff wall, leaving it unable to perform any more experiments beyond its first three days on the comet after its solarpowered batteries ran out. Rosetta’s cameras located Philae’s resting place just a few weeks ago. The ESA is ending the mission because 67P is racing toward the outer solar system, out of range for the solar-powered spacecraft. Rosetta also has been subjected to the harsh radiation and extreme tem-

Before reaching the surface and shutting down, Rosetta’s instruments and camera relayed back data and images, giving scientists insight into the structure of the comet. That data will reveal information on the side walls of the comet, crucial to understanding how they
are formed, plus on large 100metre (300 foot) wide pits, which scientists believe are key to how the comet releases gas and dust as it is warmed by the sun. Daniel Brown, an astronomy expert at Nottingham Trent University, said the images sent back from the Rosetta mission were “as powerful as Neil Armstrong’s first steps on the Moon”.
Data collected by Rosetta and Philae is already helping scientists better understand how the Earth and other planets formed. For example, scientists now believe that asteroids, not comets were primarily responsible for delivering water to Earth and other planets in the inner solar system, possibly setting the stage for life.

ATLANTA — Authorities say a rare tree frog — the last known living member of the species in captivity — has died at the Atlanta Botanical Garden. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports (http://on-ajc. com/2d8qTPQ) that the dead Rabbs’ fringe-limbed tree frog was found dead in its enclosure during a routine daily inspection on Monday. Workers at the garden had nicknamed the male amphibian “Toughie.” It was estimated to be about 12 years old when it died. In 2005 the Atlanta Botanical Garden, Zoo Atlanta and Southern Illinois University sent a team of scientists to Panama to collect live animals before chytrid disease struck the area. Among the frogs they brought back to Atlanta was a species of tree frogs (Ecnomiohyla rabborum) new to science, the Rabbs’ frog, the Atlanta newspaper reported. It was identified in 2005 by Zoo Atlanta herpetology
curator Joseph Mendelson, and later named for conservationists George and Mary Rabb. The disease eventually arrived in Panama, and many of the frogs disappeared. In 2008 the botanical garden purchased and outfitted a climate-controlled facility known as the Frog Pod, designed to house the Rabb’s tree frog and other rare amphibians in complete isolation from each other, the Journal-Constitution reported. That’s where the Rabbs’ frog spent the last eight years of its 11-plus year lifespan. “Science had a very short window to learn about the species in the wild before this disease struck the only known locality for the frog and the species vanished,” said Mary Pat Matheson, president and CEO of the Atlanta Botanical Garden. Scientists estimate that onethird to one-half of amphibian species worldwide are threatened with extinction. (ap)

After long dormant, Tanah Ampo harbor tested
AMLAPURA - After being dormant for long time, the Tanah Ampo harbor at Manggis, Karangasem, was finally tested by the Director General of Land Transportation, Ministry of Transportation and other related parties, Friday (Sep. 30). The testing process tried to uncover public controversy frequently doubting the pier’s compatibility for ship docking. In general, the testing process took place smoothly. However, the complete results of the testing will be issued on Monday (Oct. 3). Testing process involved the experts from the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB), the University of Indonesia (UI) and the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing Affairs, while the Bali House of Representatives, the Bali Tourism Office and the Bali Transportation Agency, Benoa Harbor Authority and KSOP Padangbai were also present at the location. The harbor testing process did not use cruise ship, but the Mizan motor vessel, a special ship intended for the testing process. This ship has a length of 43 meters while the width is five meters, and the testing process took place for four times. The Head of the Karangasem Transportation Agency, Wayan Sutapa, said that the testing process is done by independent parties in order to get neutral results. It implemented accelerometer technology. Many aspects were tested such as the physical condition of the pier, the depth of surrounding sea and the waves, mooring process, the weather as well as the collision between the ship and the pier. “In general, the testing process seems to be going on smoothly, and when accidentally slammed with the pier there are no to significant vibrations,” said Sutapa. This testing was carried out to prove the assessment of many parties regarding this pier. So far, many parties perceive if the pier is not feasible to operate. On the other hand, the construction of this
pier has spent a large amount of budget and should be helpful for the community. However, seeing the testing results on Friday, Sutapa is optimistic if the Tanah Ampo harbor can be operated properly. At least, this harbor, according to him, can serve ships with a maximum length of 150 meters. After seeing the interim results of this testing process, the Benoa Harbor Authority, said Sutapa, has given green light so that small cruise ships with a maximum length of 150 meters and below can be directed to moor at the Tanah Ampo Harbor, Karangasem. Similar opinion was also stated by the Head of the KSOP Padangbai, I Ketut Gede Sudarma. If the official results declared that Tanah Ampo Harbor is really feasible, the Benoa Harbor Authority, he said, already agreed to establish cooperation in order that small cruise ships could be directed to moor at this harbor. Other than small-sized cruises, later on the speed boats normally operate at traditional harbor of Padangbai Port-Gili Trawangan will also be directed to operate at the Tanah Ampo Harbor. “However, the crossing to Nusa Penida remains to use Padangbai traditional harbor. Both harbors can still operate,” said Sudarma. When asked about the continuation of the Tanah Ampo harbor construction, Wayan Sutapa asserted that central government has committed to disbursing IDR 36 billion in 2017 for the construction of

Although the budget disbursed is quite far from the DED of Tanah Ampo harbor continuation development, he argued that with the addition of the two components the harbor can operate properly. In appropriate with the DED of the local government, the budget needed reaches IDR 73 billion. However, due to budgetary efficiency at central government this year, the budget was cut back. So, the budget disbursed next year will only reach IDR 36 billion. Nevertheless, this harbor development will continue by degrees until 2018 with the addition of security facilities and yacht. To note, the asset of Tanah Ampo pier belongs to central, provincial and district government. The data at the Karangasem Transportation
Agency show that the pier facility is worth IDR 70 billion, but after appraised the latest asset depreciated to IDR 56.2 billion. The harbor terminal and supporting facilities of the Bali government is worth IDR 16.602 billion. Appraisal of the assets in 2013 indicated the value of IDR 263 billion, while the core zone of 1.5 hectares belonging to the government of Karangasem is worth IDR 2.625 billion in 2006. Appraisal of the assets in 2013 showed the value of IDR 12.170 billion. On the 1.5 hectares of land, the government of Bali built all the facilities such as passenger terminal of 1,350 square meters and commercial area, management office, fire department, harbor police, SAR, immigration, quarantine, generator set, water and fuel tank, parking facilities, security
guard post and toilets. These buildings need maintenance so that the management should immediately get clarity. In the meantime, in terms of sea aspect, the sea area of the harbor reaches 98.89 hectares with a minimum depth of 7.9 meters. The first construction segment of the pier has the length of 154 meters and width of 12 meters, mooring area of 46.20 hectares, mooring terminal (2.54 hectares), lap pool area (27.45 hectares) and emergency purposes (23.10 hectares). For continuation of the development, detailed engineering design (DED) has been prepared since last year to develop the existing harbor. Based on this assessment, it is planned to build breakwater and pier or jetty by taking the third alternative. (kmb31)
As for floating market in Badung River
Threatened to be useless, not supported by people’s culture DENPASAR - The floating market in the stream of Badung River precisely on Jalan Taman Pancing, Pemogan, initiated by the municipal government of Denpasar reaps scorn from the circle of local parliament. The innovation taken to realize clean river is worth appreciating. However, the type of activities undertaken is considered inappropriate. Floating market should be supported by the culture of surrounding communities. In the meantime, Denpasar has no life like that of com-
munity living around the Barito River, Borneo, indeed living in the river. On that account, the floating market program is feared to fade alias it does not work. It was disclosed by some members of the Denpasar House of Representatives, such as A.A. Ngurah Gede Widiada, A.A. Susruta Ngurah Putra, A.A. Gede Putra Ariewangsa, and Wayan Duaja at their office, Friday (Sep. 30) when responding to the floating market program of the Denpasar municipal government.
These people’s representatives of Denpasar appreciated to the measures and innovations carried out to make the river free from trash. Nevertheless, feasibility of the launched program should be assessed. Do not just create a program that cannot continue. We must consider first whether the infrastructure supports or not, and what about the culture of the surrounding communities. They must be assessed first so that the program is not made carelessly,” said Susruta, the Democratic politician. Widiada, a Nasdem politi-
cian, also added that the making of floating market should consider the condition of river water. In other words, the water flow should be sufficient to carry out the activity on the water. “When the water is not stable, how people can do the activity, let alone a floating market. I think it useless,” said the politician from Peguyangan Palace. Another question of the people’s representatives is regarding the commodities on sale in the market. For instance, if selling fish, it is still appropri-
ate with the area. When selling the same commodities as sold in the existing market, it is feared that no people will go shopping there. Moreover, people should ride a boat. Thus, I think the market will sink,” criticized Duaja, a Golkar politician. As reported earlier, the municipal government of Denpasar designed a floating market in Badung River on Jalan Taman Pancing. The market involves the PKK group of Pemogan village. This market was once tried by the mayor of Denpasar with his spouse. (kmb12)

Batur geopark passes in revalidation UNESCO recommends some improvements to Bangli govt BANGLI - Batur geopark was finally declared to pass the revalidation by UNESCO. This was announced at the closing ceremony of the UNESCO Global Geopark Conference in English Riviera Global Geopark, UK last September. Although it was declared to pass the revalidation and won a green card, the UNESCO remains to give some notes on repair to the government of Bangli, especially in terms of geosite arrangement. Manager of the Batur Geopark who is also the Regional Secretary of Bangli, Ida Bagus Putra Giri, said on Sunday (Oct. 2) that in the closing ceremony of the UNESCO Global Geopark Conference he attended in English Riviera at Global Geopark UK was stated that the Batur UNESCO Global Geopark was declared to qualify for the revalidation and won the green card of the UNESCO. The green card is valid for four years until the next revalidation in 2020. He said that the success achieved by the Batur Geopark is inseparable from the cohesiveness and teamwork, community and the entire regional apparatus in Bangli. He described that in the conference was revealed that conceptually the Batur UNESCO Global Geopark will be used as example in the world’s geopark. This happens because every geosite is always integrated with the geology, biology and culture. “All the achievements are inseparable from the sublime concept of Tri Hita Karana we have, which has been applied to implement the geopark concept,” he explained. Although it managed to pass in the revalidation and attained green card, Giri Putra acknowledged that UNESCO also provides the government of Bangli with some notes to make improvements. Some of the notes put more emphasis on the arrangement of the geosite. For example, UNESCO requested to build souvenir stalls in the P3GB area. In addition, it also recommended that Trunyan graveyard

Batur Geopark having been visited by many travelers must be protected with guardrail so that travelers will not come too close to the graveyard. Other note that should also be implemented immediately by the government of Bangli is to strive so that the destination of crossing services in Lake Batur can be extended. “We are also asked to build geotourism at the geosite where Julia Roberts did shooting of her film and make several other repairs,”

In the meantime, the Head of the Bangli Culture and Tourism Agency, Wayan Adnyana, separately stated that to follow up a number of recommendations given by the UNESCO his agency will immediately arrange the geosite and increase the capacity of human resources of geotourism guides primarily at the geosite. Adnyana said it has been designed in the amended regional
budget by making cooperation with the geological agency of Bandung. Besides, his agency will also make cooperation with restaurants, artisans and village awareness group in the area of Batur UNESCO Global Geopark. “Maintaining is equally difficult to achieving. The most important is a shared commitment to carry out the actions in the field,” said Adnyana. (kmb40)
The attack on the camp of India’s 46 Rashtriya Rifles in Baramulla, which also houses a unit of the Border Security Force, started at around 10:30 pm (1700 GMT) and repeated exchanges of fire ensued. One border guard was killed and one wounded when militants tried to enter the army camp, said Baramulla Superintendent of Police Imtiyaz Hussein. Nuclear-armed neighbours India and Pakistan have been at odds over Kashmir ever since independence nearly 70 years ago, fighting two of their three wars over the territory that they each rule in part but claim in full. Hussein said the militants in the latest attack, who appear to have reached the camp by boat on a river that passes through the town, had escaped. “They fled under the cover of darkness,” he told Reuters on Monday morning. India called its 4 Para special forces unit in to Baramulla and an operation continued into the morning to search and secure the
army camp. Baramulla is a district capital that lies on the road from Srinagar, the summer capital of India’s northernmost state, to the frontier settlement of Uri, where the Sept. 18 attack on the army base took place. India launched retaliatory “surgical strikes” in the early hours of Thursday against militant camps on the Pakistani side of the Line of Control, announcing it had inflicted significant casualties. Pakistan denied any such attack had taken place. India’s announcement that it had conducted the cross-border raid was the first in decades, and raised international fears that its campaign to isolate Pakistan diplomatically and punish it militarily could lead to an armed escalation. After the Indian operation, the United States urged India and Pakistan to show restraint. On Monday, Pakistan said the two countries’ national security advisers had been in touch in an attempt to calm the situation on the Line of Control (LoC). (rtr)
one hand, the government has long discoursed to revitalize, but until now it has not been realized. Made Sutama did not deny such condition. However, this official from Gulingan, Mengwi, has prepared the concept for revitalizing so as to revive the life there. He further explained that it will be realized by transforming the Latu market into an agro market. “There (Latu market—Ed), the merchants sell all kinds of agricultural products of North Badung such as vegetables and fruits. We are doing this to make differentiation from other markets,” he explained. Thus, said Sutarma, the area of North Badung serving as a buffer of South Badung tourism area can mutually complement. “Most
importantly, the need of fruits and vegetables for the hospitality can be fulfilled by the agro market later,” he said. Initial stage of the concept to transform the Latu market into agro market is by performing total revitalization against the existing buildings. According to him, the current location is considered less strategic, so that pursuant to the revitalization plan the building must be dismantled and changed to directly face highway. It will no longer give impression of distancing the highway. Lonely visitor to the markets was highlighted by legislators, in this case the Commission III of the Badung House of Representatives. No doubt the legislators urged the government to immediately

In 2017, Latu market transformed into agro market
MANGUPRA - The government of Badung through the regional enterprise (PD) Pasar Badung is scheduled to transform the Kertha Sari market or better known as the Latu market into agro market. This revitalization is going to be carried out in 2017. “We will do the revitalization next year. For the whole revitalization, it will take us the budget of IDR 20 billion. If a half, we will need at least IDR 10 billion. It will depend on the results of feasibility study,” said Managing Director of the PD Pasar Badung, Made Sutama. As seen in the field on Sunday (Oct. 2), condition of this traditional market located in Abiansemal subdistrict is getting more alarming. Many stalls are closed. On the

People march during an annual religious festival in Bishoftu, a town southeast of Ethiopia’s capital, Addis Ababa, Sunday, Oct. 2, 2016. Several people were crushed to death Sunday morning, according to witnesses, in a stampede after police used tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse protesters chanting anti-government slogans as they pushed toward a stage where leaders were speaking.
ADDIS ABABA - More than 50 people were killed in a stampede in Ethiopia’s Oromiya region that was triggered when police used teargas and shot in the air on Sunday to disperse anti-government protesters at a religious festival. The state broadcaster put the death toll at 52, citing regional officials. The opposition also said at least 50 people were killed at the annual festival where some people had chanted slogans against the government and waved a rebel group’s flag. Sporadic protests have erupted in Oromiya in the last two years, initially sparked by a land row but increasingly turning more broadly against the government. Since late 2015, scores of protesters have been killed in clashes with police. The developments highlight tensions in the country where the government has delivered stellar economic growth rates but faced criticism from opponents and rights groups that it has reduced political
freedoms. Thousands of people had gathered for the annual Irreecha festival of thanksgiving in the town of Bishoftu, about 40 km (25 miles) south of the capital Addis Ababa. Crowds chanted “We need freedom” and “We need justice”, preventing community elders, deemed close to the government, from delivering their speeches. Some protesters waved the red, green and yellow flag of the Oromo Liberation Front, a rebel group branded a terrorist organisation by the government, witnesses said. When police fired teargas and guns into the air, crowds fled and created a stampede, some of them plunging into a deep ditch. The witnesses said they saw people dragging out a dozen or more victims, showing no obvious sign of life. Half a dozen people, also motionless, were seen being taken by pick-up truck to a hospital, one witness said. “As a result of the chaos, lives were lost and several of the injured
were taken to hospital,” the government communications office said in a statement, without giving figures. “Those responsible will face justice.” Merera Gudina, chairman of the opposition Oromo Federalist Congress, told Reuters at least 50 people had died, based on details provided by families of the victims. He said the government tried to use the event to show Oromiya was calm. “But residents still protested,” he said. The government blames rebel groups and dissidents abroad for stirring up the protests and provoking violence. It dismisses charges that it clamps down on free speech or on its opponents. Protesters had chanted slogans against the Oromo People’s Democratic Organisation, one of the four regional parties that make up the Ethiopian Peoples’ Revolutionary Democratic Front, which has ruled the country for quarter of a century.

FRANKFURT - Germany’s insistence that Italy accept tough conditions in tackling its problem lenders may rebound now that Berlin faces a banking crisis of its own. gling to persuade investors to back its third recapitalisation in as many years, Economy minister Pier Carlo Padoan acknowledged Italy had to get its own house in order, but not in isolation. “Just like the problem of bad bank loans must be solved within a reasonable time frame, so it should be for Deutsche Bank’s problems,” he told La Stampa newspaper. Rome and Berlin have been at odds for months over demands that Italian savers should shoulder the burden of a rescue of Monte dei Paschi, Italy’s third biggest and oldest bank. Rome had tried to shield institutional investors and ordinary Italians who put their savings into the bank’s bonds, while Berlin had wanted them to suffer losses as a condition for allowing state support. An official familiar with the German government’s stance, had told Reuters it wanted to prevent Italy tapping European funds to solve its banking problems, a move that would mean Berlin footing part of the bill. Germany points out that while

Sterling hits 3-year low vs euro as Brexit deadline set LONDON - Sterling slid to a three-year low against the euro and a three-month low versus the dollar

the European Union. Britain’s Prime Minister Theresa May told her Conservative party’s annual conference on Sunday that she was determined to move on with the process and win the “right deal”, in a move to ease fears inside her party that she may delay the divorce. Triggering Article 50 of the EU’s Lisbon Treaty will give Britain a two-year period to clinch one of the most complex deals in Europe since World War Two, and will redefine the country’s ties with its biggest trading partner. Sterling, having just posted its worst run of quarterly losses since 1984, skidded more than 1 percent against the dollar to $1.2845. That left it less than half a cent away from the 31-year low it plumbed in early July, shortly after the shock June 23 vote to leave the EU. The pound also shed 1 percent
against the euro to hit 87.48 pence, its weakest since August 2013. “The fact that May has confirmed the timings for the triggering of Article 50 took away any lingering doubts and any lingering supportive elements for the currency, whereby...we could pretend nothing was going on,” said UBS Wealth Management currency strategist Geoffrey Yu. “Markets are fundamentally seeing Brexit as negative for the pound... and now we know it’s definitely going to happen, there’s more short-term or medium-term risk for the currency, but how it’s really going to play out remains to be seen.” Yu added that sterling’s performance over the coming months would be determined by whether it looked as if Britain would undergo a “hard Brexit” - a total split from
the EU and its single market that some fear could drive an exodus of banks from London. Forecasts for the pound after the vote were almost universally bleak. A number of major banks predicted a fall to around $1.20, levels not seen since the Plaza Accord’s move to weaken the dollar in the mid-1980s, but it has so far held up better than that, bottoming out in early July at $1.2798. “From (May’s) comments it appears that next year it is going to be very volatile and the British currency may face a large move on any given day especially when it comes to conceptions and translations about Brexit,” said Think Forex analyst Naeem Aslam. “A harder Brexit may punish the currency more, and if the economic data starts to fall off the cliff, it may actually push the politicians to strike for a softer Brexit.” (rtr)

Strike disrupts operations at Freeport’s mine in Indonesia
German hard line on Italy may rebound with Deutsche in crisis After months of argument over how to deal with bad debts in the Italian financial system, Deutsche Bank instead took centre stage on Friday, with its share price near record lows and its chief executive trying to reassure staff and markets that Germany’s biggest bank remains robust. For many in Italy, including Prime Minister Matteo Renzi, this diverted attention from the country’s own difficulties in recapitalising the likes of Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena. Renzi went easy on expressing any Schadenfreude on Friday, but knocked the ball back into the German court. “We have always said that the European Union has to do everything in its power to fix the problems of the banking sector and the main worry focuses on the German lenders,” he told national broadcaster RAI. He is not alone. The International Monetary Fund has named Deutsche as a bigger potential risk to the wider financial system than any other global bank. With Monte dei Paschi strug-

JAKARTA — The U.S. owner of a gold and copper mine in eastern Indonesia that is among the largest in the world says its operations have been disrupted by a days-long strike. FreeportMcMoran spokesman Riza Pratama said Monday that open pit mining has stopped and processing of ore has been reduced. A union official, Frans Okoseray, said about 1,200 workers began their strike on Wednesday to get bigger monthly bonus payments. The Grasberg mine in Indonesia’s troubled Papua province is the world’s largest gold mine by reserves and one of the largest copper mines. It has experienced previous violent protests by workers, while activist groups have complained of environmental damage and unfair distribution of profits. Okoseray said the strikers include heavy equipment operators and truck drivers. He said they want their bonus to be equal to underground mine workers who get a 50 percent bonus each month. Pratama said underground mining hasn’t been affected. Negotiations were under way among company officials, the workers and their union, he said.(ap)
Indonesian police investigate porn on public video screen
JAKARTA — Police in Indonesia’s capital are investigating the operator of a public video screen after it displayed a porn movie instead of advertising to passing traffic. Ten people, including employees of the company operating the electronic billboard, have been questioned, Jakarta police spokesman Awi Setyono said Monday. Police can’t yet name a suspect,
he added. Twitter in social media-mad Indonesia was abuzz with news of the incident, which occurred not long after Friday prayers last week in the Muslim-majority
country. Many users posted clips of the billboard as it displayed a Japanese porn movie playing in an internet browser. Adrian Wiedarta, a manager at PT Transito Adimanjati, which operates the advertising screen, blamed the incident on a hacker who he said seized control of the
system, allowing the porn film to play for about five minutes. Police assisted by nearby vendors shut off power to the giant video screen as drivers and pedestrians watched the movie. Setyono said the police’s cybercrime unit has analyzed several computers seized from the company.
Jakarta police chief Muhammad Iriawan said the perpetrator could be charged under either the Electronic Transaction Law, which carries a maximum prison sentence of six years and a fine of 1 billion rupiah ($77,000), or the Pornography Law, which carries a prison sentence of up to 12 years.(ap)
Raja Ampat needs ship to serve Waisai-Misool route
SORONG - The Raja Ampat district government has set its focus on developing the island into a new tourist area, though the limitation of sea transport is still a constraint. Raja Ampat District Head Abdul Faris Umlati remarked here on Monday that the local government is in need of a ship to serve the route from the district town of Waisai to Misool island. Therefore, he said the local
government has proposed to the central government to assign a ship to serve the route in a bid to attract tourist visits to Raja Ampat, especially to Misool island. The local government, according to Umlati, is currently building facilities and infrastructure in Misool island to enable tourists to enjoy the scenery of the island from the top of a rock cliff. In addition, the local govern-
ment is building some accommodations and restaurants on the island for visitors. Compared to the already well-known islands, such as Pinanemo and Wayak islands, Umlati remarked that Misool island is the most beautiful tourist destination in Raja Ampat. A survey in South Misool Nature Reserve has recorded 159 bird species including 4 birds of paradise and 5 bat species, and numerous
protected rare birds. Misool, one of the four major islands in Raja Ampat district in the Indonesian province of West Papua, is being developed into a new tourist area. Misool island is famous for its diversity of cultures, customs, land and sea, with clear turquoise waters that hold 75 percent of all known species of corals and ornamental fish in the world, and boasts the highest level of marine biodiversity
on the planet. Hoping to draw more local and foreign tourists to Raja Ampat, the local government is developing the island of Misool. The wild territory of Misool is one of the most visually breathtaking and captivating sites in Raja Ampat. The island is heavily forested, and at first sight reveals nothing but a thick green carpet of dense forests and mangrove swamps.(ant)

Sturgeon says British PM May does not care about Scotland over Brexit
REUTERS/Toby Melville TPX IMAGES OF THE DAY
Britain’s Prime Minister Theresa May speaks at the annual Conservative Party Conference in Birmingham, Britain, October 2, 2016.
EDINBURGH - Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon accused Theresa May of ignoring Scots over Britain’s exit from the European Union after the British Prime Minister indicated that Scotland will not have a veto. Sturgeon, whose nationalist party is not ruling out a new Scottish independence vote, said on Twitter that May was “going out of her way to say Scotland’s voice and interests don’t matter”. “Strange approach from someone who wants to keep (the) UK together,” Sturgeon said. May, who says she will trigger the process to leave the EU by March, has said Scotland’s concerns will be taken into account. When asked directly if Scotland could have a veto over Brexit, she told the BBC: “The United Kingdom will have a position in the negotiations and we, as a United Kingdom government, will be negotiating with the European Union.”
Scotland, one of the United Kingdom’s four constituent parts, overwhelmingly voted to stick with the EU in June but England and Wales voted out. The United Kingdom’s devolved parliaments could complicate or slow an EU withdrawal as their remit over such a major change is unclear and there is a convention for giving the assemblies a say on matters that concern them. British government lawyers have argued there is no need to have the agreement of Britain’s devolved parliaments in Scotland, Northern Ireland or Wales for Brexit. The lawyers argue such assemblies do not have any “competence” over foreign affairs which they say is for the UK government to decide. A spokesman for the Scottish government said on Sunday that it was unlikely Scotland would approve legislation that does not guarantee access to the EU’s single market for goods and services, but it is not clear what say Scotland will have in the process.

Colombians reject deal to end 52-year FARC rebel war
BOGOTA - Colombians narrowly rejected a peace deal with Marxist guerrillas in a referendum on Sunday, plunging the nation into uncertainty and dashing President Juan Manuel Santos’ painstakingly negotiated plan to end the 52-year war. The surprise victory for the “no” camp poured cold water on international joy, from the White House to the Vatican, at what had seemed to be the end of the longest-running conflict in the Americas. The “no” camp won by 50.21 percent to 49.78 percent. Voter turnout was only 37 percent, perhaps partly owing to torrential rain through the country. Both sides in the war immediately sought to reassure the world they would try to revive their peace plan. Santos, 65, said a ceasefire already negotiated would remain in place. He vowed to sit down on Monday with the victorious “no” camp to discuss the way forward, and send his chief negotiator back to Cuba to meet with FARC rebel leaders. “I will not give up, I will keep seeking peace until the last day of my term because that is the way to leave a better nation for our children,” said Santos, who
cannot seek re-election when his second term ends in August 2018. The commander of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, known by his nom de guerre, Timochenko, gave a similar message from Havana, where peace negotiations have taken place over the last four years. “ T h e FA R C r e i t e r a t e s i t s disposition to use only words as a weapon to build toward the future,” said Timochenko, whose real name is Rodrigo Londono. “To the Colombian people who dream of peace, count on us, peace will triumph.” Santos recently said a “no” vote would mean a return to war, and opinion polls had predicted he would win comfortably. Traditionally conservative Colombian voters, in favor of peace in principle but unhappy at perceived soft treatment for the guerrillas, confounded those forecasts. (rtr)

Gumang Hill has a great mount Agung and ocean view during the daytime, but the best panorama Gumang Hill has to offer can be seen early in the morning. Yes, the view of sunrise from this hill is superb especially during the dry season (late in April up to early in October) but for the sunrise I recommend you to climb this hill around July and August. Hunting a snapshot of sunrise from the peak of this hill is quite an adventure. There is no camping site on the peak of the hill so you have to climb the hill early in the morning (around 5 AM) in order to get to the top of the hill right in time for the sunrise. The best spot for capturing the sunrise is on the east side of the peak, right on northeast side of the temple. The beauty of the views that you can see from the peak of Gumang is worth every ordeal you take in climbing this hill. (IBP/net)

SEPANG - A fuming Lewis Hamilton was left to wonder whether “the man above or a higher power” was conspiring to deny him a fourth Formula One title after a blown engine forced him to retire while leading Sunday’s Malaysian Grand Prix. The Briton’s hopes of leapfrogging fellow Mercedes driver and championship leader Nico Rosberg in the standings were hit when his engine burst into flames with 16 laps remaining. Hamilton, who entered the race trailing Rosberg by eight points, had been on course for a 50th career win. With Rosberg running fourth after being pushed into a spin that dropped him to the back at the start, Hamilton looked set to regain the overall championship lead.
However, Hamilton’s misfortune not only allowed the German to finish third in the race but also to open up a 23-point lead in the standings. “Yeah, it feels right now that the man above or a higher power is intervening a little bit,” Hamilton told reporters. “(I will) continue to fight more, for sure but if at the end of the year the higher power does not want me to win... then I will have to accept that.”

Lowe was quick to defend the team. “This can be a very harsh sport but no failure is planned,” Lowe told television reporters. “But for some reason which is completely unrelated to any intention or any individual performance a number of things have gone on in Lewis’s car this year.” Hamilton later said he was referring to the “higher power” in his rant and reaffirmed his confidence in his team. Rosberg had surged to a 43point lead over Hamilton at the start of the season before the Briton won six of seven races to seize the momentum going into Formula One’s summer
break with a healthy 19-point cushion. However, since the re-start, Rosberg has won three out of four races to leave Hamilton chasing shadows yet again. With five races remaining, Hamilton is fast running out of time to overhaul his rival -- especially as Rosberg will be able to hold on to the lead even if he finishes second behind Hamilton in the next three races. “All I can do is do what I’ve done this weekend,” said Hamilton, who was dominant in Malaysia until technology failed him. “I still have faith and hope... Don’t forget, I’m world champion, so I’ll be alright.” (rtr)

LOS ANGELES - Sacramento Kings point guard Darren Collison has been suspended for eight games after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor domestic violence charge, the National Basketball Association announced on Sunday. Collison will not be available to play for the Kings until October 26. In a statement, the NBA said the suspension was “as a result of a
domestic violence incident involving his wife that occurred on May 30, 2016. “On Sept. 2, Mr. Collison pled guilty to a misdemeanor domestic violence charge resulting from this incident. “The NBA determined that an eight-game suspension was appropriate. “Among other factors, the NBA
took into account the conduct and its result, the player’s acceptance of responsibility, his cooperation with both law enforcement and the NBA, and his voluntary participation in counseling in addition to the court-mandated program.” Entering the eighth season of his career, the 29-year-old Collison averaged 14 points and 4.3 assists for the Kings last season.

Balotelli is hero and villain as Nice go top

Barca have no excuses for loss at Celta, says Luis Enrique
PARIS - Mario Balotelli delivered a trademark performance as he scored to give Nice a 2-1 win against Lorient on Sunday that put them top of the Ligue 1 standings and was then sent off in stoppage time. The Italian striker scored his fifth goal in three league appearances, firing the ball into the top corner four minutes from time after Lorient’s Benjamin Moukandjo had cancelled out Ricardo Pereira’s early opener. Balotelli, who joined from Liverpool on a free transfer during the close season, was then sent off two minutes into added time for picking up a second yellow card. Nice started brightly and converted their first opportunity after 11 minutes, Pereira finding the back of the net with a low shot after being set up by Mathieu Bodmer. The visitors threatened through Jimmy Cabot but keeper Yoan Cardinale stayed alert. Moukandjo levelled in the 61st minute with a chip after collecting Mohamed Mara’s through ball. Balotelli unleashed a fine shot from the edge of the box into the opposite top corner shortly before being sent to the dressing room following a brief scuffle with Steven Moreira. Nice have 20 points from eight games and lead neighbours Monaco, who demolished Metz 7-0 on Saturday, by one point. French champions Paris St Germain, who beat Girondins de Bordeaux 2-0 on Saturday, are third on 16 points. Olympique Lyonnais beat arch rivals St Etienne 2-0 at home with goals by Sergi Darder and Rachid Ghezzal either side of the interval to move up to fifth on 13 points, leaving Les Verts in ninth place one point behind. In their 2,368th game in the top flight -- tying Sochaux’s record -- Olympique de Marseille were held to a 1-1 draw at Angers as Pierrick Capelle cancelled out Florian Thauvin’s opener in stoppage time.(rtr)
His decisions soon backfired as Barca were blitzed by an intense Celta side, who raced into a 3-0 halftime lead. “I cannot be satisfied, we’ve wasted the chance to go top before the international break,” Luis Enrique said with his stuttering side two points off the pace in fourth behind leaders Atletico and Real Madrid and a point behind Sevilla. “We weren’t at the right level apart from in the first 15 minutes. We kept on losing battles and they anticipated our mistakes. We did not cause them any problems. When you go 3-0 down to Celta at halftime you can have no excuses.” The coach said he took full responsibility for the chaotic display but
said he had no regrets about his team selection. “I have nothing to regret. The most disappointed person after a defeat like this is me but it’s my job to take decisions,” he added at the news conference. Barca reasserted themselves in the second half when a header from Gerard Pique and Neymar penalty reduced the deficit to one goal before they were floored again by a catastrophic mistake by keeper Marc Andre ter Stegen. The German international was caught in possession in his own six yard box and made an attempted clearance which cannoned off Celta midfielder Pablo Hernandez and bounced straight into the Barca net. Luis Enrique, however, offered Ter
Stegen his support. “The Barcelona goalkeeper should always take risks but today is not the game to criticise individuals. Ter Stegen gives us a lot and we’re not going to kill him for this,” he said Barca defender Pique, who scored twice in the second half, said they should take heart their reaction after the break. “We played better in the second half and had nothing to lose. It almost paid off.

Aston Villa fires Roberto Di Matteo after poor start BIRMINGHAM — Aston Villa has fired manager Roberto Di Matteo following the team’s dire start in its bid to make an instant return to the Premier League. The Italian, who won the Champions League with Chelsea in 2012, has been dismissed by secondtier club Villa after only a few months in charge. He was hired in June. Villa says it “decided to act following a run of disappointing results.” Villa, European champion in 1982, is 19th in the 24-team League Championship and two points above the relegation zone with only one win from its opening 11 games. The club spent about 50 million pounds ($64 million) following relegation to enhance its chances of promotion.(ap)

PARIS - Mario Balotelli delivered a trademark performance as he scored to give Nice a 2-1 win against Lorient on Sunday that put them top of the Ligue 1 standings and was then sent off in stoppage time. The Italian striker scored his fifth goal in three league appearances, firing the ball into the top corner four minutes from time after Lorient’s Benjamin Moukandjo had cancelled out Ricardo Pereira’s early opener. Balotelli, who joined from Liverpool on a free transfer during the close season, was then sent off two minutes into added time for picking up a second yellow card. Nice started brightly and converted their first opportunity after 11 minutes, Pereira finding the back of the net with a low shot after being set up by Mathieu Bodmer. The visitors threatened through Jimmy Cabot but keeper Yoan Cardinale stayed alert. Moukandjo levelled in the 61st minute with a chip after collecting Mohamed Mara’s through ball. Balotelli unleashed a fine shot from the edge of the box into the opposite top corner shortly before being sent to the dressing room following a brief scuffle with Steven Moreira. Nice have 20 points from eight games and lead neighbours Monaco, who demolished Metz 7-0 on Saturday, by one point. French champions Paris St Germain, who beat Girondins de Bordeaux 2-0 on Saturday, are third on 16 points. Olympique Lyonnais beat arch rivals St Etienne 2-0 at home with goals by Sergi Darder and Rachid Ghezzal either side of the interval to move up to fifth on 13 points, leaving Les Verts in ninth place one point behind. In their 2,368th game in the top flight -- tying Sochaux’s record -- Olympique de Marseille were held to a 1-1 draw at Angers as Pierrick Capelle cancelled out Florian Thauvin’s opener in stoppage time.(rtr)
His decisions soon backfired as Barca were blitzed by an intense Celta side, who raced into a 3-0 halftime lead. “I cannot be satisfied, we’ve wasted the chance to go top before the international break,” Luis Enrique said with his stuttering side two points off the pace in fourth behind leaders Atletico and Real Madrid and a point behind Sevilla. “We weren’t at the right level apart from in the first 15 minutes. We kept on losing battles and they anticipated our mistakes. We did not cause them any problems. When you go 3-0 down to Celta at halftime you can have no excuses.” The coach said he took full responsibility for the chaotic display but
said he had no regrets about his team selection. “I have nothing to regret. The most disappointed person after a defeat like this is me but it’s my job to take decisions,” he added at the news conference. Barca reasserted themselves in the second half when a header from Gerard Pique and Neymar penalty reduced the deficit to one goal before they were floored again by a catastrophic mistake by keeper Marc Andre ter Stegen. The German international was caught in possession in his own six yard box and made an attempted clearance which cannoned off Celta midfielder Pablo Hernandez and bounced straight into the Barca net. Luis Enrique, however, offered Ter
Stegen his support. “The Barcelona goalkeeper should always take risks but today is not the game to criticise individuals. Ter Stegen gives us a lot and we’re not going to kill him for this,” he said Barca defender Pique, who scored twice in the second half, said they should take heart their reaction after the break. “We played better in the second half and had nothing to lose. It almost paid off. We can learn from this,” Pique told Movistar plus. “The game looked over and all we can take from this is the reaction of the team and the pride we showed but there are many things we need to improve. There’s a lot of the season left to go and it’s still very tight.”(rtr)

Gumang Hill KARANGASEM - Gumang Hill is situated in Bugbug village, on the road between Candidasa and Amlapura in Karangasem Regency. This hill overlooks the majestic Mount Agung on the north and Lombok strait on the east. During a favorable weather Mount Rinjani and the island of Lombok can be seen from this hill. Gumang Hill is not a tourist resort, so there is no such a thing as entrance fee. The peak of Gumang Hill can be reached just by 40 minutes hiking and climbing from the road on the foot of the hill. On the peak of the hill you can find an old temple that is called Pura Bukit Gumang by the locals. This temple is guarded by a band of monkeys that not just roaming the temple precinct but also the forest on the slope of the hill, and sometimes they can be found searching for food on the shrines on the foot of the hill.

Gumang Hill has a great mount Agung and ocean view during the daytime, but the best panorama Gumang Hill has to offer can be seen early in the morning. Yes, the view of sunrise from this hill is superb especially during the dry season (late in April up to early in October) but for the sunrise I recommend you to climb this hill around July and August. Hunting a snapshot of sunrise from the peak of this hill is quite an adventure. There is no camping site on the peak of the hill so you have to climb the hill early in the morning (around 5 AM) in order to get to the top of the hill right in time for the sunrise. The best spot for capturing the sunrise is on the east side of the peak, right on northeast side of the temple. The beauty of the views that you can see from the peak of Gumang is worth every ordeal you take in climbing this hill. (IBP/net)

SEPANG - A fuming Lewis Hamilton was left to wonder whether “the man above or a higher power” was conspiring to deny him a fourth Formula One title after a blown engine forced him to retire while leading Sunday’s Malaysian Grand Prix. The Briton’s hopes of leapfrogging fellow Mercedes driver and championship leader Nico Rosberg in the standings were hit when his engine burst into flames with 16 laps remaining. Hamilton, who entered the race trailing Rosberg by eight points, had been on course for a 50th career win. With Rosberg running fourth after being pushed into a spin that dropped him to the back at the start, Hamilton looked set to regain the overall championship lead.
However, Hamilton’s misfortune not only allowed the German to finish third in the race but also to open up a 23-point lead in the standings. “Yeah, it feels right now that the man above or a higher power is intervening a little bit,” Hamilton told reporters. “(I will) continue to fight more, for sure but if at the end of the year the higher power does not want me to win... then I will have to accept that.”

Lowe was quick to defend the team. “This can be a very harsh sport but no failure is planned,” Lowe told television reporters. “But for some reason which is completely unrelated to any intention or any individual performance a number of things have gone on in Lewis’s car this year.” Hamilton later said he was referring to the “higher power” in his rant and reaffirmed his confidence in his team. Rosberg had surged to a 43point lead over Hamilton at the start of the season before the Briton won six of seven races to seize the momentum going into Formula One’s summer
break with a healthy 19-point cushion. However, since the re-start, Rosberg has won three out of four races to leave Hamilton chasing shadows yet again. With five races remaining, Hamilton is fast running out of time to overhaul his rival -- especially as Rosberg will be able to hold on to the lead even if he finishes second behind Hamilton in the next three races. “All I can do is do what I’ve done this weekend,” said Hamilton, who was dominant in Malaysia until technology failed him. “I still have faith and hope... Don’t forget, I’m world champion, so I’ll be alright.” (rtr)

LOS ANGELES - Sacramento Kings point guard Darren Collison has been suspended for eight games after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor domestic violence charge, the National Basketball Association announced on Sunday. Collison will not be available to play for the Kings until October 26. In a statement, the NBA said the suspension was “as a result of a
domestic violence incident involving his wife that occurred on May 30, 2016. “On Sept. 2, Mr. Collison pled guilty to a misdemeanor domestic violence charge resulting from this incident. “The NBA determined that an eight-game suspension was appropriate. “Among other factors, the NBA
took into account the conduct and its result, the player’s acceptance of responsibility, his cooperation with both law enforcement and the NBA, and his voluntary participation in counseling in addition to the court-mandated program.” Entering the eighth season of his career, the 29-year-old Collison averaged 14 points and 4.3 assists for the Kings last season.

Sturgeon says British PM May does not care about Scotland over Brexit
REUTERS/Toby Melville TPX IMAGES OF THE DAY
Britain’s Prime Minister Theresa May speaks at the annual Conservative Party Conference in Birmingham, Britain, October 2, 2016.
EDINBURGH - Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon accused Theresa May of ignoring Scots over Britain’s exit from the European Union after the British Prime Minister indicated that Scotland will not have a veto. Sturgeon, whose nationalist party is not ruling out a new Scottish independence vote, said on Twitter that May was “going out of her way to say Scotland’s voice and interests don’t matter”. “Strange approach from someone who wants to keep (the) UK together,” Sturgeon said. May, who says she will trigger the process to leave the EU by March, has said Scotland’s concerns will be taken into account. When asked directly if Scotland could have a veto over Brexit, she told the BBC: “The United Kingdom will have a position in the negotiations and we, as a United Kingdom government, will be negotiating with the European Union.”
Scotland, one of the United Kingdom’s four constituent parts, overwhelmingly voted to stick with the EU in June but England and Wales voted out. The United Kingdom’s devolved parliaments could complicate or slow an EU withdrawal as their remit over such a major change is unclear and there is a convention for giving the assemblies a say on matters that concern them. British government lawyers have argued there is no need to have the agreement of Britain’s devolved parliaments in Scotland, Northern Ireland or Wales for Brexit. The lawyers argue such assemblies do not have any “competence” over foreign affairs which they say is for the UK government to decide. A spokesman for the Scottish government said on Sunday that it was unlikely Scotland would approve legislation that does not guarantee access to the EU’s single market for goods and services, but it is not clear what say Scotland will have in the process.

Colombians reject deal to end 52-year FARC rebel war
BOGOTA - Colombians narrowly rejected a peace deal with Marxist guerrillas in a referendum on Sunday, plunging the nation into uncertainty and dashing President Juan Manuel Santos’ painstakingly negotiated plan to end the 52-year war. The surprise victory for the “no” camp poured cold water on international joy, from the White House to the Vatican, at what had seemed to be the end of the longest-running conflict in the Americas. The “no” camp won by 50.21 percent to 49.78 percent. Voter turnout was only 37 percent, perhaps partly owing to torrential rain through the country. Both sides in the war immediately sought to reassure the world they would try to revive their peace plan. Santos, 65, said a ceasefire already negotiated would remain in place. He vowed to sit down on Monday with the victorious “no” camp to discuss the way forward, and send his chief negotiator back to Cuba to meet with FARC rebel leaders. “I will not give up, I will keep seeking peace until the last day of my term because that is the way to leave a better nation for our children,” said Santos, who
cannot seek re-election when his second term ends in August 2018. The commander of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, known by his nom de guerre, Timochenko, gave a similar message from Havana, where peace negotiations have taken place over the last four years. “ T h e FA R C r e i t e r a t e s i t s disposition to use only words as a weapon to build toward the future,” said Timochenko, whose real name is Rodrigo Londono. “To the Colombian people who dream of peace, count on us, peace will triumph.” Santos recently said a “no” vote would mean a return to war, and opinion polls had predicted he would win comfortably. Traditionally conservative Colombian voters, in favor of peace in principle but unhappy at perceived soft treatment for the guerrillas, confounded those forecasts. (rtr)

Rome and Berlin have been at odds for months over demands that Italian savers should shoulder the burden of a rescue of Monte dei Paschi, Italy’s third biggest and oldest bank. Rome had tried to shield institutional investors and ordinary Italians who put their savings into the bank’s bonds, while Berlin had wanted them to suffer losses as a condition for allowing state support. An official familiar with the German government’s stance, had told Reuters it wanted to prevent Italy tapping European funds to solve its banking problems, a move that would mean Berlin footing part of the bill.

the European Union. Britain’s Prime Minister Theresa May told her Conservative party’s annual conference on Sunday that she was determined to move on with the process and win the “right deal”, in a move to ease fears inside her party that she may delay the divorce. Triggering Article 50 of the EU’s Lisbon Treaty will give Britain a two-year period to clinch one of the most complex deals in Europe since World War Two, and will redefine the country’s ties with its biggest trading partner. Sterling, having just posted its worst run of quarterly losses since 1984, skidded more than 1 percent against the dollar to $1.2845. That left it less than half a cent away from the 31-year low it plumbed in early July, shortly after the shock June 23 vote to leave the EU. The pound also shed 1 percent
against the euro to hit 87.48 pence, its weakest since August 2013. “The fact that May has confirmed the timings for the triggering of Article 50 took away any lingering doubts and any lingering supportive elements for the currency, whereby...we could pretend nothing was going on,” said UBS Wealth Management currency strategist Geoffrey Yu. “Markets are fundamentally seeing Brexit as negative for the pound... and now we know it’s definitely going to happen, there’s more short-term or medium-term risk for the currency, but how it’s really going to play out remains to be seen.” Yu added that sterling’s performance over the coming months would be determined by whether it looked as if Britain would undergo a “hard Brexit” - a total split from
the EU and its single market that some fear could drive an exodus of banks from London. Forecasts for the pound after the vote were almost universally bleak. A number of major banks predicted a fall to around $1.20, levels not seen since the Plaza Accord’s move to weaken the dollar in the mid-1980s, but it has so far held up better than that, bottoming out in early July at $1.2798. “From (May’s) comments it appears that next year it is going to be very volatile and the British currency may face a large move on any given day especially when it comes to conceptions and translations about Brexit,” said Think Forex analyst Naeem Aslam. “A harder Brexit may punish the currency more, and if the economic data starts to fall off the cliff, it may actually push the politicians to strike for a softer Brexit.” (rtr)

Strike disrupts operations at Freeport’s mine in Indonesia
German hard line on Italy may rebound with Deutsche in crisis After months of argument over how to deal with bad debts in the Italian financial system, Deutsche Bank instead took centre stage on Friday, with its share price near record lows and its chief executive trying to reassure staff and markets that Germany’s biggest bank remains robust. For many in Italy, including Prime Minister Matteo Renzi, this diverted attention from the country’s own difficulties in recapitalising the likes of Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena. Renzi went easy on expressing any Schadenfreude on Friday, but knocked the ball back into the German court. “We have always said that the European Union has to do everything in its power to fix the problems of the banking sector and the main worry focuses on the German lenders,” he told national broadcaster RAI. He is not alone. The International Monetary Fund has named Deutsche as a bigger potential risk to the wider financial system than any other global bank. With Monte dei Paschi strug-

JAKARTA — The U.S. owner of a gold and copper mine in eastern Indonesia that is among the largest in the world says its operations have been disrupted by a days-long strike. FreeportMcMoran spokesman Riza Pratama said Monday that open pit mining has stopped and processing of ore has been reduced. A union official, Frans Okoseray, said about 1,200 workers began their strike on Wednesday to get bigger monthly bonus payments. The Grasberg mine in Indonesia’s troubled Papua province is the world’s largest gold mine by reserves and one of the largest copper mines. It has experienced previous violent protests by workers, while activist groups have complained of environmental damage and unfair distribution of profits. Okoseray said the strikers include heavy equipment operators and truck drivers. He said they want their bonus to be equal to underground mine workers who get a 50 percent bonus each month. Pratama said underground mining hasn’t been affected. Negotiations were under way among company officials, the workers and their union, he said.(ap)
Indonesian police investigate porn on public video screen
JAKARTA — Police in Indonesia’s capital are investigating the operator of a public video screen after it displayed a porn movie instead of advertising to passing traffic. Ten people, including employees of the company operating the electronic billboard, have been questioned, Jakarta police spokesman Awi Setyono said Monday. Police can’t yet name a suspect,
he added. Twitter in social media-mad Indonesia was abuzz with news of the incident, which occurred not long after Friday prayers last week in the Muslim-majority
country. Many users posted clips of the billboard as it displayed a Japanese porn movie playing in an internet browser. Adrian Wiedarta, a manager at PT Transito Adimanjati, which operates the advertising screen, blamed the incident on a hacker who he said seized control of the
system, allowing the porn film to play for about five minutes. Police assisted by nearby vendors shut off power to the giant video screen as drivers and pedestrians watched the movie. Setyono said the police’s cybercrime unit has analyzed several computers seized from the company.
Jakarta police chief Muhammad Iriawan said the perpetrator could be charged under either the Electronic Transaction Law, which carries a maximum prison sentence of six years and a fine of 1 billion rupiah ($77,000), or the Pornography Law, which carries a prison sentence of up to 12 years.(ap)
Raja Ampat needs ship to serve Waisai-Misool route
SORONG - The Raja Ampat district government has set its focus on developing the island into a new tourist area, though the limitation of sea transport is still a constraint. Raja Ampat District Head Abdul Faris Umlati remarked here on Monday that the local government is in need of a ship to serve the route from the district town of Waisai to Misool island. Therefore, he said the local
government has proposed to the central government to assign a ship to serve the route in a bid to attract tourist visits to Raja Ampat, especially to Misool island. The local government, according to Umlati, is currently building facilities and infrastructure in Misool island to enable tourists to enjoy the scenery of the island from the top of a rock cliff. In addition, the local govern-
ment is building some accommodations and restaurants on the island for visitors. Compared to the already well-known islands, such as Pinanemo and Wayak islands, Umlati remarked that Misool island is the most beautiful tourist destination in Raja Ampat. A survey in South Misool Nature Reserve has recorded 159 bird species including 4 birds of paradise and 5 bat species, and numerous
protected rare birds. Misool, one of the four major islands in Raja Ampat district in the Indonesian province of West Papua, is being developed into a new tourist area. Misool island is famous for its diversity of cultures, customs, land and sea, with clear turquoise waters that hold 75 percent of all known species of corals and ornamental fish in the world, and boasts the highest level of marine biodiversity
on the planet. Hoping to draw more local and foreign tourists to Raja Ampat, the local government is developing the island of Misool.

Batur geopark passes in revalidation UNESCO recommends some improvements to Bangli govt BANGLI - Batur geopark was finally declared to pass the revalidation by UNESCO. This was announced at the closing ceremony of the UNESCO Global Geopark Conference in English Riviera Global Geopark, UK last September. Although it was declared to pass the revalidation and won a green card, the UNESCO remains to give some notes on repair to the government of Bangli, especially in terms of geosite arrangement. Manager of the Batur Geopark who is also the Regional Secretary of Bangli, Ida Bagus Putra Giri, said on Sunday (Oct. 2) that in the closing ceremony of the UNESCO Global Geopark Conference he attended in English Riviera at Global Geopark UK was stated that the Batur UNESCO Global Geopark was declared to qualify for the revalidation and won the green card of the UNESCO. The green card is valid for four years until the next revalidation in 2020. He said that the success achieved by the Batur Geopark is inseparable from the cohesiveness and teamwork, community and the entire regional apparatus in Bangli. He described that in the conference was revealed that conceptually the Batur UNESCO Global Geopark will be used as example in the world’s geopark. This happens because every geosite is always integrated with the geology, biology and culture. “All the achievements are inseparable from the sublime concept of Tri Hita Karana we have, which has been applied to implement the geopark concept,” he explained. Although it managed to pass in the revalidation and attained green card, Giri Putra acknowledged that UNESCO also provides the government of Bangli with some notes to make improvements. Some of the notes put more emphasis on the arrangement of the geosite. For example, UNESCO requested to build souvenir stalls in the P3GB area. In addition, it also recommended that Trunyan graveyard

Militant attack on Indian army base in Kashmir kills one
SRINAGAR - At least six militants attacked an Indian army camp in north Kashmir on Sunday night, killing one border guard and wounding another, two weeks after a similar attack killed 19 Indian soldiers and ratcheted up tensions between India and Pakistan.

Batur Geopark having been visited by many travelers must be protected with guardrail so that travelers will not come too close to the graveyard. Other note that should also be implemented immediately by the government of Bangli is to strive so that the destination of crossing services in Lake Batur can be extended. “We are also asked to build geotourism at the geosite where Julia Roberts did shooting of her film and make several other repairs,”
said Giri Putra. In the meantime, the Head of the Bangli Culture and Tourism Agency, Wayan Adnyana, separately stated that to follow up a number of recommendations given by the UNESCO his agency will immediately arrange the geosite and increase the capacity of human resources of geotourism guides primarily at the geosite. Adnyana said it has been designed in the amended regional
budget by making cooperation with the geological agency of Bandung. Besides, his agency will also make cooperation with restaurants, artisans and village awareness group in the area of Batur UNESCO Global Geopark. “Maintaining is equally difficult to achieving. The most important is a shared commitment to carry out the actions in the field,” said Adnyana. (kmb40)
The attack on the camp of India’s 46 Rashtriya Rifles in Baramulla, which also houses a unit of the Border Security Force, started at around 10:30 pm (1700 GMT) and repeated exchanges of fire ensued. One border guard was killed and one wounded when militants tried to enter the army camp, said Baramulla Superintendent of Police Imtiyaz Hussein. Nuclear-armed neighbours India and Pakistan have been at odds over Kashmir ever since independence nearly 70 years ago, fighting two of their three wars over the territory that they each rule in part but claim in full. Hussein said the militants in the latest attack, who appear to have reached the camp by boat on a river that passes through the town, had escaped. “They fled under the cover of darkness,” he told Reuters on Monday morning. India called its 4 Para special forces unit in to Baramulla and an operation continued into the morning to search and secure the
army camp. Baramulla is a district capital that lies on the road from Srinagar, the summer capital of India’s northernmost state, to the frontier settlement of Uri, where the Sept. 18 attack on the army base took place. India launched retaliatory “surgical strikes” in the early hours of Thursday against militant camps on the Pakistani side of the Line of Control, announcing it had inflicted significant casualties. Pakistan denied any such attack had taken place. India’s announcement that it had conducted the cross-border raid was the first in decades, and raised international fears that its campaign to isolate Pakistan diplomatically and punish it militarily could lead to an armed escalation. After the Indian operation, the United States urged India and Pakistan to show restraint. On Monday, Pakistan said the two countries’ national security advisers had been in touch in an attempt to calm the situation on the Line of Control (LoC). (rtr)
one hand, the government has long discoursed to revitalize, but until now it has not been realized. Made Sutama did not deny such condition. However, this official from Gulingan, Mengwi, has prepared the concept for revitalizing so as to revive the life there. He further explained that it will be realized by transforming the Latu market into an agro market. “There (Latu market—Ed), the merchants sell all kinds of agricultural products of North Badung such as vegetables and fruits. We are doing this to make differentiation from other markets,” he explained. Thus, said Sutarma, the area of North Badung serving as a buffer of South Badung tourism area can mutually complement. “Most
importantly, the need of fruits and vegetables for the hospitality can be fulfilled by the agro market later,” he said. Initial stage of the concept to transform the Latu market into agro market is by performing total revitalization against the existing buildings. According to him, the current location is considered less strategic, so that pursuant to the revitalization plan the building must be dismantled and changed to directly face highway. It will no longer give impression of distancing the highway. Lonely visitor to the markets was highlighted by legislators, in this case the Commission III of the Badung House of Representatives. No doubt the legislators urged the government to immediately

MANGUPRA - The government of Badung through the regional enterprise (PD) Pasar Badung is scheduled to transform the Kertha Sari market or better known as the Latu market into agro market. This revitalization is going to be carried out in 2017. “We will do the revitalization next year. For the whole revitalization, it will take us the budget of IDR 20 billion. If a half, we will need at least IDR 10 billion. It will depend on the results of feasibility study,” said Managing Director of the PD Pasar Badung, Made Sutama. As seen in the field on Sunday (Oct. 2), condition of this traditional market located in Abiansemal subdistrict is getting more alarming. Many stalls are closed. On the

People march during an annual religious festival in Bishoftu, a town southeast of Ethiopia’s capital, Addis Ababa, Sunday, Oct. 2, 2016. Several people were crushed to death Sunday morning, according to witnesses, in a stampede after police used tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse protesters chanting anti-government slogans as they pushed toward a stage where leaders were speaking.
ADDIS ABABA - More than 50 people were killed in a stampede in Ethiopia’s Oromiya region that was triggered when police used teargas and shot in the air on Sunday to disperse anti-government protesters at a religious festival. The state broadcaster put the death toll at 52, citing regional officials. The opposition also said at least 50 people were killed at the annual festival where some people had chanted slogans against the government and waved a rebel group’s flag. Sporadic protests have erupted in Oromiya in the last two years, initially sparked by a land row but increasingly turning more broadly against the government. Since late 2015, scores of protesters have been killed in clashes with police. The developments highlight tensions in the country where the government has delivered stellar economic growth rates but faced criticism from opponents and rights groups that it has reduced political
freedoms. Thousands of people had gathered for the annual Irreecha festival of thanksgiving in the town of Bishoftu, about 40 km (25 miles) south of the capital Addis Ababa. Crowds chanted “We need freedom” and “We need justice”, preventing community elders, deemed close to the government, from delivering their speeches. Some protesters waved the red, green and yellow flag of the Oromo Liberation Front, a rebel group branded a terrorist organisation by the government, witnesses said. When police fired teargas and guns into the air, crowds fled and created a stampede, some of them plunging into a deep ditch. The witnesses said they saw people dragging out a dozen or more victims, showing no obvious sign of life. Half a dozen people, also motionless, were seen being taken by pick-up truck to a hospital, one witness said. “As a result of the chaos, lives were lost and several of the injured
were taken to hospital,” the government communications office said in a statement, without giving figures. “Those responsible will face justice.” Merera Gudina, chairman of the opposition Oromo Federalist Congress, told Reuters at least 50 people had died, based on details provided by families of the victims. He said the government tried to use the event to show Oromiya was calm. “But residents still protested,” he said. The government blames rebel groups and dissidents abroad for stirring up the protests and provoking violence. It dismisses charges that it clamps down on free speech or on its opponents. Protesters had chanted slogans against the Oromo People’s Democratic Organisation, one of the four regional parties that make up the Ethiopian Peoples’ Revolutionary Democratic Front, which has ruled the country for quarter of a century.

Mission Complete: Rosetta says farewell with comet crash-landing
BERLIN - The Rosetta spacecraft ended its historic mission on Friday, crashing on the surface of the dusty, icy comet it has spent 12 years chasing in a hunt that has provided insight into the early days of the solar system and captured the public’s imagination. The spacecraft has stalked comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko across more than 6 billion km (3.7 billion miles) of space, collecting a treasure trove of information on comets that will keep scientists busy for the next decade. Scientists in the European Space Agency control centre in Darmstadt, Germany, clapped and hugged as confirmation of the end of the mission came at 1119 GMT. Rosetta completed its free-fall descent at the speed of a sedate walk, joining the probe Philae, which landed on the comet in November 2014 in what was considered a remarkable feat of precision space travel. “Thank you Rosetta,” ESA director general Jan Woerner said on Twitter. He was among some 300 people who had also gathered before dawn at a conference room at the International Astronautical Congress in Guadalajara, Mexico, to watch a live webcast as Rosetta’s signal disappeared from monitors, simultaneously with the team in Germany. “It was a good ending,” Klaus Schiling, who worked on mission
planning for Rosetta 27 years ago with prime contractor Airbus , told Reuters at the Mexico space conference. “There were so many ups and downs with this mission.” PLANET FORMATION The mission managed several historic firsts, such as getting a spacecraft into orbit around a comet and the unprecedented landing of a probe on the surface. A handful of previous spacecraft had snapped pictures and collected data as they flew past their targets. But, dashing hopes for more discoveries, Philae, the 100 kg (220 lb) probe, bounced several times on landing before getting stuck against a cliff wall, leaving it unable to perform any more experiments beyond its first three days on the comet after its solarpowered batteries ran out. Rosetta’s cameras located Philae’s resting place just a few weeks ago. The ESA is ending the mission because 67P is racing toward the outer solar system, out of range for the solar-powered spacecraft. Rosetta also has been subjected to the harsh radiation and extreme tem-

Before reaching the surface and shutting down, Rosetta’s instruments and camera relayed back data and images, giving scientists insight into the structure of the comet. That data will reveal information on the side walls of the comet, crucial to understanding how they
are formed, plus on large 100metre (300 foot) wide pits, which scientists believe are key to how the comet releases gas and dust as it is warmed by the sun. Daniel Brown, an astronomy expert at Nottingham Trent University, said the images sent back from the Rosetta mission were “as powerful as Neil Armstrong’s first steps on the Moon”.
Data collected by Rosetta and Philae is already helping scientists better understand how the Earth and other planets formed. For example, scientists now believe that asteroids, not comets were primarily responsible for delivering water to Earth and other planets in the inner solar system, possibly setting the stage for life.

ATLANTA — Authorities say a rare tree frog — the last known living member of the species in captivity — has died at the Atlanta Botanical Garden. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports (http://on-ajc. com/2d8qTPQ) that the dead Rabbs’ fringe-limbed tree frog was found dead in its enclosure during a routine daily inspection on Monday. Workers at the garden had nicknamed the male amphibian “Toughie.” It was estimated to be about 12 years old when it died. In 2005 the Atlanta Botanical Garden, Zoo Atlanta and Southern Illinois University sent a team of scientists to Panama to collect live animals before chytrid disease struck the area. Among the frogs they brought back to Atlanta was a species of tree frogs (Ecnomiohyla rabborum) new to science, the Rabbs’ frog, the Atlanta newspaper reported. It was identified in 2005 by Zoo Atlanta herpetology
curator Joseph Mendelson, and later named for conservationists George and Mary Rabb. The disease eventually arrived in Panama, and many of the frogs disappeared. In 2008 the botanical garden purchased and outfitted a climate-controlled facility known as the Frog Pod, designed to house the Rabb’s tree frog and other rare amphibians in complete isolation from each other, the Journal-Constitution reported. That’s where the Rabbs’ frog spent the last eight years of its 11-plus year lifespan. “Science had a very short window to learn about the species in the wild before this disease struck the only known locality for the frog and the species vanished,” said Mary Pat Matheson, president and CEO of the Atlanta Botanical Garden. Scientists estimate that onethird to one-half of amphibian species worldwide are threatened with extinction. (ap)

After long dormant, Tanah Ampo harbor tested
AMLAPURA - After being dormant for long time, the Tanah Ampo harbor at Manggis, Karangasem, was finally tested by the Director General of Land Transportation, Ministry of Transportation and other related parties, Friday (Sep. 30). The testing process tried to uncover public controversy frequently doubting the pier’s compatibility for ship docking. In general, the testing process took place smoothly. However, the complete results of the testing will be issued on Monday (Oct. 3). Testing process involved the experts from the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB), the University of Indonesia (UI) and the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing Affairs, while the Bali House of Representatives, the Bali Tourism Office and the Bali Transportation Agency, Benoa Harbor Authority and KSOP Padangbai were also present at the location. The harbor testing process did not use cruise ship, but the Mizan motor vessel, a special ship intended for the testing process. This ship has a length of 43 meters while the width is five meters, and the testing process took place for four times. The Head of the Karangasem Transportation Agency, Wayan Sutapa, said that the testing process is done by independent parties in order to get neutral results. It implemented accelerometer technology. Many aspects were tested such as the physical condition of the pier, the depth of surrounding sea and the waves, mooring process, the weather as well as the collision between the ship and the pier. “In general, the testing process seems to be going on smoothly, and when accidentally slammed with the pier there are no to significant vibrations,” said Sutapa. This testing was carried out to prove the assessment of many parties regarding this pier. So far, many parties perceive if the pier is not feasible to operate. On the other hand, the construction of this
pier has spent a large amount of budget and should be helpful for the community. However, seeing the testing results on Friday, Sutapa is optimistic if the Tanah Ampo harbor can be operated properly. At least, this harbor, according to him, can serve ships with a maximum length of 150 meters. After seeing the interim results of this testing process, the Benoa Harbor Authority, said Sutapa, has given green light so that small cruise ships with a maximum length of 150 meters and below can be directed to moor at the Tanah Ampo Harbor, Karangasem. Similar opinion was also stated by the Head of the KSOP Padangbai, I Ketut Gede Sudarma. If the official results declared that Tanah Ampo Harbor is really feasible, the Benoa Harbor Authority, he said, already agreed to establish cooperation in order that small cruise ships could be directed to moor at this harbor. Other than small-sized cruises, later on the speed boats normally operate at traditional harbor of Padangbai Port-Gili Trawangan will also be directed to operate at the Tanah Ampo Harbor. “However, the crossing to Nusa Penida remains to use Padangbai traditional harbor. Both harbors can still operate,” said Sudarma. When asked about the continuation of the Tanah Ampo harbor construction, Wayan Sutapa asserted that central government has committed to disbursing IDR 36 billion in 2017 for the construction of

Although the budget disbursed is quite far from the DED of Tanah Ampo harbor continuation development, he argued that with the addition of the two components the harbor can operate properly. In appropriate with the DED of the local government, the budget needed reaches IDR 73 billion. However, due to budgetary efficiency at central government this year, the budget was cut back. So, the budget disbursed next year will only reach IDR 36 billion. Nevertheless, this harbor development will continue by degrees until 2018 with the addition of security facilities and yacht. To note, the asset of Tanah Ampo pier belongs to central, provincial and district government. The data at the Karangasem Transportation
Agency show that the pier facility is worth IDR 70 billion, but after appraised the latest asset depreciated to IDR 56.2 billion. The harbor terminal and supporting facilities of the Bali government is worth IDR 16.602 billion. Appraisal of the assets in 2013 indicated the value of IDR 263 billion, while the core zone of 1.5 hectares belonging to the government of Karangasem is worth IDR 2.625 billion in 2006. Appraisal of the assets in 2013 showed the value of IDR 12.170 billion. On the 1.5 hectares of land, the government of Bali built all the facilities such as passenger terminal of 1,350 square meters and commercial area, management office, fire department, harbor police, SAR, immigration, quarantine, generator set, water and fuel tank, parking facilities, security
guard post and toilets. These buildings need maintenance so that the management should immediately get clarity. In the meantime, in terms of sea aspect, the sea area of the harbor reaches 98.89 hectares with a minimum depth of 7.9 meters. The first construction segment of the pier has the length of 154 meters and width of 12 meters, mooring area of 46.20 hectares, mooring terminal (2.54 hectares), lap pool area (27.45 hectares) and emergency purposes (23.10 hectares). For continuation of the development, detailed engineering design (DED) has been prepared since last year to develop the existing harbor. Based on this assessment, it is planned to build breakwater and pier or jetty by taking the third alternative. (kmb31)
As for floating market in Badung River
Threatened to be useless, not supported by people’s culture DENPASAR - The floating market in the stream of Badung River precisely on Jalan Taman Pancing, Pemogan, initiated by the municipal government of Denpasar reaps scorn from the circle of local parliament. The innovation taken to realize clean river is worth appreciating. However, the type of activities undertaken is considered inappropriate. Floating market should be supported by the culture of surrounding communities. In the meantime, Denpasar has no life like that of com-
munity living around the Barito River, Borneo, indeed living in the river. On that account, the floating market program is feared to fade alias it does not work. It was disclosed by some members of the Denpasar House of Representatives, such as A.A. Ngurah Gede Widiada, A.A. Susruta Ngurah Putra, A.A. Gede Putra Ariewangsa, and Wayan Duaja at their office, Friday (Sep. 30) when responding to the floating market program of the Denpasar municipal government.
These people’s representatives of Denpasar appreciated to the measures and innovations carried out to make the river free from trash. Nevertheless, feasibility of the launched program should be assessed. Do not just create a program that cannot continue. We must consider first whether the infrastructure supports or not, and what about the culture of the surrounding communities. They must be assessed first so that the program is not made carelessly,” said Susruta, the Democratic politician. Widiada, a Nasdem politi-
cian, also added that the making of floating market should consider the condition of river water. In other words, the water flow should be sufficient to carry out the activity on the water. “When the water is not stable, how people can do the activity, let alone a floating market. I think it useless,” said the politician from Peguyangan Palace. Another question of the people’s representatives is regarding the commodities on sale in the market. For instance, if selling fish, it is still appropri-
ate with the area. When selling the same commodities as sold in the existing market, it is feared that no people will go shopping there. Moreover, people should ride a boat. Thus, I think the market will sink,” criticized Duaja, a Golkar politician. As reported earlier, the municipal government of Denpasar designed a floating market in Badung River on Jalan Taman Pancing. The market involves the PKK group of Pemogan village. This market was once tried by the mayor of Denpasar with his spouse. (kmb12)

“We will disseminate the results of this study to all health centers represented by the head of the health centers and midwives coordinator, all hospitals in Tabanan, health clinics and midwife practices as learning so that such similar cases will not happen again,” she said. According to Serpi, in 2016 there were four cases of maternal mortality due to heart failure. All of these deaths occurred on the way because it happened suddenly and was not predicted in advance. “This heart problem is experienced by mothers giving birth via cesarean section. It is not predictable because the mother had no previ-
ous history on alarming disease,”’ explained Serpi. Symptoms of heart failure causing the death, added Serpi, occurred in women after surgery on day 10 to day 21. To prevent the case from happening again, the Tabanan Health Agency required all the health services to intervene in order to immediately refer the mother giving birth by surgery or post surgery with shortness although it is only a bit. Hospitals are required to handle it in multidisciplinary manner and examine completely with the help of laboratory and X-rays. “So, never decide in a hurry if there are no problems,” said Serpi. Through intervention measures and multidisciplinary handling, added Serpi, the health service is able to save three people where the mothers were slightly forced

In such cases, even though the mothers only suffered complaint about claustrophobic and their claustrophobic symptoms disappeared, in fact based on the X-rays and echocardiography it is found the symptom of cardiomyopathy or enlargement of heart where if left without treatment in a few days it can lead to heart failure. “So, the current standard operating procedures require all the hospitals to report their patients of mother giving birth especially after the cesarean section. They will be monitored closely by health center officers,” explained Serpi. Based on data up to August 2016, a total of 3,344 mothers gave birth in Tabanan where 962 of them had a cesarean section and four people died. (kmb24)
Fishermen of Jembrana face sardine famine
The fishermen are bringing the fish to shore
Activities
Some fishermen met on Sunday (Oct. 2) admitted that they rarely catch sardine like the other months in the waters of the South Sea. “We have been sailing around, but hard to get the fish. Occasionally our fish basket is empty,” said Apik, a crew of purse seine at Pengambengan. To increase the income, he and a number of other crews seek another job in mainland. Some of them became timber porter and construction worker. In the meantime, this sardine famine is predicted to be happening until March 2017. The weather condition in the Bali Sea is unfavorable for habitat of catch fish as the impact of La Nina. The Research Institute for Marine Observations (SEACORM) released data analysis that the catch of sardine during the El Nino last year was quite a lot, while in the current La Nina the
catch of fishermen decreased and even disappeared from the waters of Bali. Widodo S. Pranowo, from the Center for Research and Development of Marine and Coastal Resources explained the impact of La Nina on the catch depends on the strength of the weather anomalies whose peak is predicted to happen in October to November. This condition also happens in other fishing areas. The water of tuna producer also experiences a shift. The Head of the Research and Marine Observations (SEACORM), Nyoman Radiaka, told reporters that the fish movement is also affected by climate change. It can disappear at particular habitat but then changed by other fish species rarely encountered before. Thus, it becomes a challenge for the SEACORM to provide a map of fishing. (kmb26)

‘Miss Peregrine’ bests ‘Deepwater Horizon’ at box office
NEW YORK — In a box-office rarity, three acclaimed, original films from studios opened in theaters over the weekend. Only one caught on. Tim Burton’s latest fantastical oddity, “Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children,” debuted with $28.5 million, leading North America ticket sales, according to studio estimates Sunday.
Peter Berg’s well-reviewed disaster movie “Deepwater Horizon,” about the 2010 oil rig explosion, however, failed to tap North American moviegoers, opening with an estimated $20.6 million. And Disney’s uplifting chess prodigy tale “Queen of Katwe,” starring David Oyelowo and Lupita Nyong’o, brought in a dismal $2.6 million in its national expansion. Originality, that often lamented missing ingredient in studio products, can lead to box office success, just as it can disappointment. For 20th Century Fox, the draw of “Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children” was predicated on the idiosyncrasy of Burton funneled into an accessible tale, adapted from Ransom Rigg’s popular young-adult novel. “It validates the whole notion of why we made this film, which is something that’s very original and creative,” said Chris Aronson, president of domestic distribution at Fox. “At least I feel that that’s what audiences are looking for. There’s some fatigue with the same old, same old. And if there’s anything this movie isn’t, it’s that.” The film cost $110 million to make, meaning it will need a strong performance overseas to be profitable. It started out with $36.5 million in 59 markets. Regardless, it’s a comeback of sorts for Burton at the box office. It’s his best opening since 2012’s lackluster “Dark Shadows.” Lionsgate’s “Deepwater Horizon,” starring Mark Wahlberg, also cost at least $110 million to make, yet it only managed $20.6 million in its debut.

In a crowded autumn weekend at the box office, “Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children” came out on top. which first premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival, brought all the big-budget flare of an action movie (including a nearly life-size replica of the Deepwater Horizon oil rig) to the April 2010 explosion, which killed 11 men and for weeks spilled millions of barrels of oil into the Gulf of Mexico. The film’s performance is another blow for the struggling Lionsgate, which has had difficulty finding hits since “The Hunger Games” saga finished. Its stock price has fallen and the departure of its movie chief Rob Friedman was announced last month. It does however have a film, Damien Chazelle’s “La La Land,” due later this year, that’s expected to be an Oscar favorite.(ap)

about 4 million euros, the source said. Kardashian was discovered “badly shaken but physically unharmed”, according to her publicist, Ina Treciokas. As news of the event spread, West abruptly ended a performance in New York less than an hour into his set. “I’m sorry I have a family emergency, I have to stop the show,” West told the audience in video tweeted by fans at the Meadows Festival in Queens. The Paris apartment block is a discreet building behind the city’s Madeleine church, with several secret entrances, often frequented by movie and music stars who pay up to 15,000 euros a night. The source said the attackers fled on bicycles. Police found the night guard in the staircase, his hand and feet bound. Kardashian was in Paris with her mother Kris Jenner and her sisters Kendall Jenner and Kourtney Kardashian to attend the fashion week. The rest of the family stayed in a hotel. The robbery set social media alight, with many users expressing disbelief at the latest headline-grabbing event in the life of a TV star who life is
continually documented on screen and the internet. “Looking forward to accompanying album and TV show detailing event,” said Twitter user Jay. Most comments, however, were supportive. “Kim Kardashian is a mother, a wife, daughter and sister. Despite the fact that you don’t like her, being held up at gun point is not funny,” said one post by Alieuisha. Paris has seen several armed robberies on high-end jewelry stores in recent months. The armed robbery could add to worries about safety in Paris, hit by a series of attacks by Islamist militants last year. Tourist numbers to what is traditionally the most visited city in the world, fell 6.4 percent in the first half of 2016 as many Asians and Americans stayed away. “We worry about the image of Paris. This will be all over the news channels, imagine the negative publicity,” Nathalie Kosciusko-Morizet, head of the conservative opposition in Paris, told Europe 1 radio.(rtr) News can also be heard in “Bali Image” at Global Radio FM 96.5 from 9.30 until 10.00 am.
