Hundreds more Ethiopian troops moved into a second Somali town on Saturday to protect the country's weak, U.N.-backed government, and talks aimed at easing tensions here fell apart when Islamist militia delegates walked out and the government did not send representatives.
About 200 Ethiopian troops with at least five pickup trucks mounted with machine guns and other vehicles moved into Wajid, a U.N. aid base, about 46 miles southeast of the Somali-Ethiopian border, at about 3 a.m. (0000GMT), several witnesses said on condition of anonymity because they feared reprisals. The soldiers took control of the town's airport from a militia serving the local administration, they said.
Arab League talks in Sudan, scheduled to resume Saturday, were aimed at easing the situation in Somalia, where the Islamist militia captured the capital, Mogadishu, from secular warlords and then consolidated their control over most of southern Somalia.
Both sides signed a temporary cease-fire agreement June 22, and the Islamists formally recognized the government, something they had previously said they would not do.
The talks fell apart Saturday when the Islamists walked out because of the Ethiopian incursion, and the government side said it would not attend until it received international guarantees that any agreement would be respected.
"The reason why we are walking out of the conference is that the Somali government has violated the accord and allowed Ethiopian troops to enter Somali soil," said Abdirahman Janaqaw, the deputy leader of the Islamic courts' executive council.
Representatives of the Islamic courts have been in Khartoum for the past week, but no government representative had shown up in the Sudanese capital.
"We will no longer stay in Khartoum and, although the delegates of the government have not arrived in Khartoum, we will walk out of the conference," Janaqaw told The Associated Press in Mogadishu.
Ethiopian and Somali government officials have denied Ethiopian troops are in the country.
"There is not a single Ethiopian solider on Somali soil. I deny that the Ethiopians have taken control of Wajid. Our troops control there," Deputy Information Minister Salad Ali Jeeley told The Associated Press in Baidoa, where the fragile transitional government is based.
In the town of Wajid, the base for southern Somalia operations for U.N. agencies and other aid organizations, residents said the Ethiopian troops did not meet any resistance when they took over the airport.
Aid workers and U.N. staff in the town also said there were Ethiopian soldiers in Wajid. They, too, asked not to be identified by name because of the sensitivity of the issue.
Wajid, which has experienced relative peace compared with other southern Somalia towns, such as Baidoa, is run by a clan-based administration that has not allied itself with the transitional government or with the Islamists.
Ethiopian troops first moved into Somalia on Thursday to protect the government, which has been challenged for power by Islamic militants. A force of more than 400 Ethiopian troops entered Baidoa, 150 miles northwest of the capital, Mogadishu, which the Islamic militia controls.
The militia, which also took control of most of southern Somalia over several weeks of fighting last month, deployed some of its fighters to within striking distance of Baidoa on Wednesday. But they pulled back as the Ethiopian troops moved in.
The Islamic militia's leader responded to the Ethiopian incursion by calling on all Somalis to wage holy war against Ethiopia, a largely Christian country that is Somalia's traditional enemy.
Sheik Hassan Dahir Aweys, in a radio broadcast on Friday, said Ethiopia was seeking to bolster what he described as a puppet regime. He said President Abdullahi Yusuf, his longtime rival, has "been a servant of Ethiopia for a long time."
Residents of Baidoa reported seeing hundreds of Ethiopian troops, in uniform and in marked armored vehicles, entering Baidoa on Thursday and taking up positions around Yusuf's compound.
Somali government leaders may be reluctant to acknowledge that Ethiopian troops have come to their aid because they do not want to appear to be beholden to the country's traditional adversary. Anti-Ethiopian sentiment still runs high in much of this almost entirely Muslim country.
Ethiopia's move could give the internationally recognized Somali government its only chance of curbing the Islamic militia's increasing power. But the incursion could also be the pretext the militiamen need to build public support for a guerrilla war.

Top 5 Must-See Historical Sites in Dublin
by Wanda Marcussen
Dublin has much to offer in cultural and historical experiences. It is a vibrant and colorful city, with a history dating back many centuries. Dublin has it all - from castles and a Viking harbor to ancient pubs, medieval libraries, and more. There is always something new to explore, so be sure to plan your visit well.

Viking Dublin
Dublin was founded as a port city by the Vikings after the seafaring Scandinavians first settled there c. 814. The Vikings named their new town Dyfflin after the small settlement and medieval monastery next to a pool in the River Poddle called Dubhlinn, meaning 'dark pool.' The area was a minor settlement before the Vikings arrived, and it was of little importance. However, the Vikings found the location at the estuary of the River Liffey to be perfect for establishing their new stronghold on the island. The city soon became important as settlers, including native Irish men and women, were drawn to the new power center on the island for work and trade.
The Vikings in Dublin.
James Ward (1851-1924) (Public Domain)
The city the Vikings first settled is still very much the center of Dublin City. Today's castle would have been located in the southeast end of the fortified town, which stretched north to the river. During the Viking period, it is believed that a wooden fort was located where the castle now stands. The town stretched north to the River Liffey, where the area now known as Wood Quay is, and the famous Temple Bar area would have been marshland, not yet drained. At Wood Quay, two sculptures of Viking ships stand today to remember the Viking heritage of the city.
After the Vikings were defeated at the Battle of Clontarf in 1014, they moved to the other side of the River Liffey.
For those interested in Viking history, it is recommended to visit The Steine or Long Stone. The stone is located north of Trinity College at the end of Pearse Street and Townsend Street and is a replica of a Viking long stone. The use of the original standing stone is not clear, but it is believed to have been raised by the Viking settlers sometime during the 10th or 11th centuries. It stood until the first half of the 18th century, while the memorial stone which can be visited was erected in 1986. Two faces adorn the stone: King Ivar the Boneless (d. 873), Viking ruler of the city during the 9th century, and the face of a nun from the monastery connected to St. Mary de Hogges.
The Steine, Dublin
Viking heritage can be explored on the northern side of Dublin. After the Vikings were defeated at the Battle of Clontarf in 1014, they moved to the other side of the River Liffey. This area still bears the name Oxmantown meaning 'Oestmen town' after the Vikings. It is interesting to go for a walk in this neighborhood, discovering the street names of clear Norse origin, including Olaf Road and Harold Road. It is believed that after the battle, some Vikings escaped and settled on the Howth Peninsula, which is a stunning area to explore for those eager to experience cliff walking and stunning Irish nature not far from Dublin's city center.
Also, visit Dublinia - a historical recreation museum with great exhibitions to learn about life in Dublin during the Viking Age and medieval period. This museum is worth a visit for anyone wanting to learn more about Dublin's establishment. It is located in parts of the historic Christ Church Cathedral in what would have been a central location in the Viking town.
St. Patrick's Cathedral
Ireland has a long and rich religious history, with much of the island converting to Christianity around the 5th and 6th centuries, thanks to the highly revered Saint Patrick (5th century), a Romano-British Christian missionary and patron saint of Ireland. A great place to learn about St. Patrick and Dublin's religious history is St. Patrick's Cathedral, which is the national cathedral of the Church of Ireland.
St. Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin

Just by the entrance to the church, there is a stone marking in the park where it is believed a well was once situated. The well is thought to have been used by St. Patrick to baptize the few inhabitants of the area during the 5th century. Several early Christian tombstones (now on display inside the church) have been discovered close by, suggesting the site's religious importance before Dublin was established as a bustling trade port by the Vikings in Ireland. The medieval church was established in 1191, and the building you can visit today originates from c. 1220.
The cathedral is a magnificent Gothic structure with many stories to tell. When visiting this important religious landmark, there is also much to be learned about Irish history and the events 'experienced' by the ancient building. For example, in the left transept, an old door can be seen, which played an essential part in the reconciliation of a violent family feud. The door is known as The Door of Reconciliation, and through a hole in the door, the earls of Kildare and Ormond shook hands in 1492. Gerald Fitzgerald (1478-1513), the head of the Fitzgeralds of Kildare, ordered that the hole should be cut and risked his arm, offering it through the hole to show his opponents he was willing to negotiate for peace.

Those keen to learn and experience more of Dublin's religious heritage should visit Christ Church Cathedral. The cathedral is believed to have been founded by Dúnán (d. 1074), the first bishop of Dublin and the Norse king Sitric Silkenbeard (r. c. 989/995-1036) as a Viking church during the 11th century, and is just a few minutes walk from St. Patrick's Cathedral. The stone church, parts of which are still standing today, was built after the Norman invasion of Ireland (12th century). It is fascinating to visit the crypt under the church, one of the largest medieval crypts in Britain and Ireland.
Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin
A must-visit monument in the city is Dublin Castle. This castle was the stronghold of the British rule and government administration in Ireland for centuries, and today it is a museum and Irish government complex. The Vikings first built their fort here when establishing the city, but the stone castle was constructed by the Norman invaders on the order of King John of England (r. 1199-1216) in 1204.
It is also recommended To VISIT The Dubhlinn Gardens, constructed over where the 'dark pool' was originally located.
Little of the castle from this period still stands, as most of the castle consists of sections and extensions from later periods, mainly the 18th century, when much had to be rebuilt after a fire. The oldest part of Dublin Castle is The Record Tower, the only surviving tower from the medieval castle, dating from around 1230.
It is necessary to buy tickets to enter the castle, which provides entry to many of the most exciting rooms. Most famous are St. Patrick's Hall, previously used as a ballroom and now the location for presidential inaugurations, the Throne Room, and the beautifully decorated State Drawing Room. The courtyard has also witnessed significant events. Even though the castle is associated with English rule, it was also an important site for Irish independence. On 16 January 1922, the Viceroy of Ireland handed the castle over to the freedom fighter and politician Michael Collins (1890-1922).

It is also recommended to visit The Dubhlinn Gardens, constructed over where the 'dark pool' was originally was located. Today, the circular park overlaying the pool and the river, which now runs underground before entering the River Liffey, consists of a lawn with patterns of six interlocking brick paths. The design is inspired by ancient Celtic art and design.

Trinity College is one of the most famous monuments in Dublin, with its beautiful campus in the middle of the city center. This university is very accessible to tourists who wish to explore the grounds and the famous Long Room of the old library. Trinity is the only ancient university located in Ireland and was established in 1592 by Queen Elizabeth I of England (r. 1558-1603) as the sole college of the University of Dublin. Today, the campus is bustling with students and visitors eager to learn more about the college's rich history.
Parliament Square, Trinity College Dublin
The iconic Campanile in the middle of the square becomes visible as you walk through the main entrance. There is a unique atmosphere on the Trinity campus, making almost anyone consider whether it might be time to go back to university and study for another degree. Most parts of the university are reserved for the students and are off-limits to the tourist, but the exhibition of The Book of Kells and the Long Room is amongst Dublin's most-visited tourist attractions. To enter it is necessary to book tickets, which should be done a good time in advance as this is one of the most popular attractions in the city.
First, visitors will walk through a museum exhibition explaining the history and important cultural legacy of the Book of Kells before the book itself is on display in a separate room. The Book of Kells contains the four gospels in Latin, written on vellum c. 800. The pages of this illuminated manuscript are beautifully decorated, the illustrations being what truly makes the preserved scripture so unique. The book's origin is not known, but most scholars believe that its production started on the Isle of Iona off the coast of Scotland. The monks had to escape the monastery at Iona due to Viking raids and sought refuge at the monastery in Kells in County Meath, Ireland. Whether the book was created at Iona, Kells, or partly at both sites is not known. Still, it is believed that three monks participated in the production of the incredible artistic visuals.

After the Book of Kells, the next part of the tour takes the visitor to the Long Room. The much-photographed Long Room, dating from the early 18th century, contains Trinity Library's oldest books. For those interested in reading books and not just admiring them from afar, learning more about Dublin's literary heritage is also recommended. Dublin is a UNESCO city of literature and is famous for authors such as James Joyce (1882-1941), Oscar Wilde (1854-1900), and Samuel Beckett (1906-1989).
Old Library, Trinity College Dublin
Kilmainham Gaol is one of the most important historic sites from the Irish struggle for independence. The prison was established in 1796 and was a functioning prison until 1924 when it was closed by the new Irish state as it had been a site and symbol of suppression and abuse for centuries. After decades of being closed and due to potential destruction, the Kilmainham Gaol was saved as a symbol and memorial for the many unfairly treated prisoners and opened to the public as a museum in 1966. Now one of Dublin's most visited heritage sites, it is recommended to book your ticket in advance to make sure you can visit.
Colin (CC BY-NC-SA)
The most celebrated prisoners were the political leaders and freedom fighters of the Easter Rising, which took place over Easter 1916 and is considered a pivotal event in the fight for Irish independence, which was achieved in 1921. Several prisoners were executed in the Stonebreakers' Yard, while some, including the future taoiseach or president of Ireland Éamon de Valera (1882-1975), luckily survived. It is a truly emotional experience to see the cells that held many of the Irish heroes and imagine what their imprisonment must have been like.

Or, pay in person at the Borough Building on the 1st Monday of each month, 6:00pm-7:00pm.
All bills are sent to the actual property owner of record and will not be sent to tenants, renters or third-parties of any kind.
The Borough uses Fayette County Tax Assessment Office and local Tax Collector records for determining ownership. If the address on your sewage bill is incorrect or you wish to have it changed, you must first make the change with the Fayette County Tax Assessment Office. Their office is located in the Fayette County Courthouse, 4th Floor. Mailing address: 61 East Main St., Uniontown, PA, 15401. Phone 724-430-1350. Once changes are verified with the Assessment Office, Borough records will be updated.
Late fees and finance charges are added to accounts when payments are not received by the 20th of the billing month.
Delinquent Customers are subject to liens, water shut-off and all associated fees. Payment plans for delinquencies may be accepted by Borough Council at their discretion.
If a delinquent account-holder's water is shut-off, the account (including all associated costs for termination and restoration of water service) must be paid in full to have water service restored.
All property owners are instructed to regularly examine their sewage lines, vent ports and view port to be sure they are still installed properly according to specifications. Broken or incorrectly installed service lines allow excess water into the sewage system, causing increased costs to the entire system. Please address any issues with your service line immediately to avoid extra charges.
Borough Council continually strives to keep costs down but property owners' assistance is needed to accomplish this. Keeping lines, vents and view ports in good working order is crucial. Everyone working together helps to avoid rate increases.
Public sewage service may be terminated ONLY when all gray water facilities are permanently removed from the property and an inspection is performed confirming removal and disconnection.
Uninhabited properties are subject to monthly sewage service fees unless all facilities have been removed, service has been disconnected and an inspection has been performed.
Prior to 2005 sewage waste within the Borough was handled by on-site septic systems. In 2004, thanks to a PennVest grant and low interest loans, the Borough began construction of a public sewer collection system, and a sewage treatment plant. Customers began tapping into the system in June 2005. Tapping into this public sewage system is mandatory for all properties with sewage facilities. The system serves customers in the Borough of Markleysburg and a small portion of Henry Clay Township. Initial tapping fees were $350 and later raised to the current fee, $1000. The monthly charge started out at $28 per EDU. Early in 2014 the rate was raised to $30 per EDU.

Why do the Jacksonville Jaguars always play in NFL London Games?
Over the years, the Jacksonville Jaguars have become a fixture in the NFL's international game schedule. That has been the case since 2012 when Jaguars owner Shahid Khan signed a deal with the English Football Association to play in London for four consecutive seasons.
Due to the success of such games, Khan signed yet another partnership to continue playing in London through 2020. For that reason, the Jaguars always feature in NFL London Games. These London Games help increase the Jaguars' global popularity, as the franchise is one of the youngest in the NFL.
The Jacksonville Jaguars have quite a relationship with London. It was even rumored that the team could move to London when their owner, Khan, attempted to purchase Wembley Stadium in 2018.
Khan eventually withdrew his offer for the stadium. The Jaguars-to-London rumor was squashed after Chris Halpin, the league's chief strategy and growth officer, told Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer that the NFL was inching away from the idea of moving a franchise there.
How have the Jacksonville Jaguars performed this season?
The Jacksonville Jaguars have had a superb season so far, with the franchise completing one of the fastest and most successful rebuilds in recent memory.
The Jaguars, led by Trevor Lawrence, had a five-game winning streak to close the season, making the playoffs for the first time. They took a 9-8 record to the postseason, and stunned the entire NFL with their gritty yet effective performances.
The Jaguars faced off against the Los Angeles Chargers in their postseason matchup and came into the game as significant underdogs. They were even 27-0 down at a stage, before Lawrence led an improbable comeback.
The Jaguars won the game 31-30, thus advancing to the Divisional Round, where they come up against the Kansas City Chiefs.

How is Trevor Lawrence performing this season?
Trevor Lawrence was drafted first overall in a QB-stacked 2021 NFL Draft class. He was the consensus number-one pick, and that was never in doubt. However, Lawrence had a miserable debut season with the Jacksonville Jaguars, regularly coming in for criticism during the 2021 NFL season. However, the Clemson University legend stuck to his guns.
The 2022 NFL season was a marked departure from his ineffective rookie season, as the Jaguars shot caller regularly bailed out his side. He was at it in his last game against the Chargers, bouncing back remarkably.
Lawrence put up a great stat line for the 2022 NFL regular season. The sophomore QB had 4,113 passing yards, 25 touchdowns, and eight interceptions for the season.

IATA signs MoU with African Development Bank to boost Africa's aviation sector
The African Development Bank (AfDB) and the International Air Transport Association (IATA) have entered into a memorandum of understanding (MoU)
By Our Correspondent
|29 Nov 2017 11:00 AM GMT
November 28, 2017: The African Development Bank (AfDB) and the International Air Transport Association (IATA) have entered into a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to establish a framework for collaboration to boost the aviation sector in Africa.
The MoU was signed on the sidelines of the International Civil Aviation Organization World Aviation Forum - Financing the Development of Aviation Infrastructure - in Abuja, Nigeria by IATA's drector general and chief executive officer, Alexandre de Juniac, and African Development Bank president Akinwumi Adesina.
Under the MoU, IATA and the AfDB will work in partnership to further advance Africa's economic and social development by helping build a safe, secure and efficient aviation industry. The two organisations commit to create and implement programs and projects, including technical cooperation for capacity building. Priority areas will include improving connectivity, safety and aviation infrastructure.
"Aviation in Africa currently supports $72.5 billion in economic activity and 6.8 million jobs. Over the next 20-years, aviation is forecast to grow at nearly 6 percent per year. This creates significant opportunities. But achieving this potential will not happen by chance; strong partnerships are key. The MoU with ADB will help facilitate the growth and development of Africa's aviation industry. In so doing, it will expand prosperity and change peoples' lives for the better in the continent's 54 nations," said Alexandre de Juniac, IATA's director general and CEO.
"The aviation sector is especially important as it opens up doors to investors. Very few invest where it's difficult to travel to. That's why ease of access via air travel is strongly correlated to economic growth. We must make regional aviation markets competitive and drive down costs, raise efficiencies and improve connectivity and convenience," said Adesina, president, AfDB.
"From Abuja, a new voice has arisen through this partnership: Africa's aviation time has come! Together, let's open up the skies of Africa, and together let's integrate Africa. By so doing, we will build stronger and more resilient economies," he added.

I'm not sure what sort of worm beds you are using, but would imagine that it might be windrows of some sort. What I would recommend is letting your beds dry out for a period of time, then adding some moistened food stock on top.
By the next day this will undoubtedly be crawling with worms and you can simply remove the uppermost layers of your windrow and use them to stock brand new windrows. This process can be repeated as desired so as to maximize the removal of worms from the castings.
Another approach you might want to consider (for future use) is known as the 'wedge technique'.
Essentially it involves creating continually growing windrows. Simply start by building up a nice heap of food materials (and bedding, if necessary), then add your worms. Once they have been allowed to settle in and start converting the materials into castings, you can slowly start adding new food materials to one side of the heap, gradually building a windrow over time.
The worms will tend to follow the food source, and at a certain point you will then be able to start harvesting finished compost (with few worms in it) from the other end of the windrow.

It's been seven years since Amy Winehouse's death.
It's impossible to walk away from Amy, director Asif Kapadia's controversial documentary about the life and death of Amy Winehouse, and not feel the urge to apportion blame. Much of the film is comprised of candid camera-phone footage shot by the singer's close friends and family, and it provides a new lens through which we can begin to understand a brilliant, complex artist who until now has been shallowly defined by her appearances in the tabloid press. Almost from the opening frame, it's clear that Amy is the first real, empathetic attempt at understanding her life, but by the time the credits roll, you will feel angrier about – and more complicit in – her death than you ever thought possible. In this quintessentially modern tragedy, there are very few innocent bystanders.
It was a watershed moment in Amy's life: a last and sadly wasted opportunity to deal with her problems before the world wanted a piece of her. Instead, she chose to focus her energies – and her anguish – into making a second album, but the extraordinary success it achieved would ensure that things could only get worse. 'Back To Black', released in late 2006, was a masterpiece, but it does make you question what masterpieces are really worth: if she'd gone to rehab instead of making the record, there's a good chance she'd still be alive today.
Shymansky makes a good point. Under the terms of their 2009 divorce – which both parties had to be talked into by their parents – Blake received no money, and was left with nothing but a serious drug addiction and a tattered reputation. You need only to compare the footage of the swaggering, cocksure character at the start of the film with the hushed, haunted-sounding interview he gave the filmmakers more recently to come to the view that, whatever crimes Fielder-Civil is guilty of, he'll likely spend the rest of his life paying for them.
Amy doesn't attempt to exonerate Blake, though it certainly humanises him. He is reportedly satisfied with how their relationship was handled, and Gay-Rees believes that participating in the film "has kind of made him reassess everything: he thought he'd dealt with it, but maybe he hadn't".
In the film, Mitch Winehouse is portrayed as an absentee father, whose divorce from his wife had a dramatic effect on Amy's behaviour. He seems to enjoy the limelight a little too much, particularly for someone whose daughter was in such a perilous state, and often appears to act more out of his own self-interest than any concern for Amy's. Yet while everyone I talk to understands why he is so angry about the film, none except Mitch himself go so far as to call its depiction of events inaccurate. "Maybe he just wasn't ready for the story the filmmakers decided to tell," suggests Darcus Beese. As for the footage that was removed from earlier cuts, Kapadia insists that, "if there are things that aren't in there, it's only because we couldn't prove them".
Some of those decisions, such as siding with his daughter against Shymansky on the subject of rehab, are completely understandable: all parents are occasionally guilty of letting their hearts rule their heads. Others, like turning up to her island hideaway in St Lucia with a camera crew in tow, are harder to rationalise (Mitch has always insisted he did this with Amy's permission, and that the film deliberately focuses on one small argument they had there, instead of showing the "hundreds of hours of us laughing, joking and singing together"). Still, watching Amy, you're forced to ask yourself: what are you supposed to do when your daughter is the most famous, most scrutinised woman in the country and her life is spiralling dangerously out of control? In such an extraordinary situation, is it really so surprising that Mitch got things wrong?
Amy wasn't the first (or last) celebrity to be harassed by the paparazzi, but she was one of the first – and certainly the most visible – casualties of the social media age. 'Back to Black' exploded at around the same time as Facebook, Twitter and the iPhone, innovations which fundamentally altered how we consume our news. The photographers who camped out on her doorstep day and night in the hopes of capturing her at her most desperate were only there to satisfy our morbid curiosity: if we'd stopped clicking and sharing, they would have turned their attentions elsewhere.
The controversy over Mitch Winehouse's portrayal in Amy threatens to overshadow this point, which is the real crux of Kapadia's film. Amy Winehouse was a victim of many things – her own self-destructive streak included – but first and foremost, she was a victim of our toxic relationship with celebrity. Fame has become a bloodsport, one whose victims we regard with all the sympathy a pack of dogs feel for the fox they've just torn to pieces. At some point, we stopped seeing Amy as a human being, afflicted with the same anxieties and insecurities we all possess, and started seeing her as fair game.
"If you're going to blame anyone in this situation, you can blame everyone – me included," says Dale Davis. "I always felt that I did the best I could, but in many ways, I failed. Ultimately, I can say that we all made mistakes with Amy, and they were big mistakes, because she's not here anymore." For four years, those closest to Amy Winehouse have had to face up to the things they got wrong. When, you wonder, will the rest of us finally start doing the same?

SOMERVILLE, Mass. —
A woman who fell down onto the train tracks at the Assembly MBTA station was rescued by a group of bystanders.
The woman, 48, was standing on the platform at the train station and suddenly fell down into the pit where the train tracks are.
"I saw, like, a huge thing fall over the platform into the subway tracks. When I looked over, I realized it was a woman," said one of the rescuers, a Los Angeles photographer named Kat.
Kat said she saw a man immediately jump down onto the tracks to help rescue the woman.

Why accurate and timely metadata is now – more than ever – critical to your business, the steps you can take to achieve it, and the potential consequences if you don't.
Providing and maintaining good quality metadata should no longer be seen as an optional extra by the book industry. It is an essential requirement and can make a big difference to the success of a title. The provision of metadata can also have an impact on all organisations interacting with it: whether they are publishers, distributors, aggregators, printers, retailers or end-customers, etc. Timely and good quality metadata is undoubtedly the key tool for aiding discoverability and increased discoverability has been shown to have a positive effect on sales.
The three expert speakers for December's BIC Breakfast – which took place on Tuesday 1st December 2015 – explored how best to ensure that your organisation's metadata is as targeted and dynamic as possible in order to gain the best possible results for both internal and external use, throughout the book industry. They outlined which fields good metadata should include, explained how to optimise your metadata to facilitate discoverability, illustrated the ways in which good metadata affects your organisation, and discussed the negative consequences that bad metadata can have within the book supply chain.
Speakers at this event included: Toby Gill, Lead Software Developer, Virtusales Publishing Solutions; George Walkley, Head of Digital, Hachette; Ruth Jones, Director of Publisher Business Development, Ingram Content Group; and Lindsey Mooney, Content Lead - UK & Ireland, Kobo.
The Library Communication Framework (LCF) is set to transform how library suppliers share information with each other in the future, building on the work that the SIP2 protocol has delivered in the past. LCF will allow vendors to share not only basic transactional information (like SIP2), but additionally better manage libraries' users and inventory. For libraries looking to upgrade any of their systems in 2016 onwards, LCF should form part of your understanding and be a mandatory part of your specification or tender requirements.
As LCF will be adopted in the UK ahead of any other country, this represents a significant opportunity for UK libraries and their vendors to show how agile and forward thinking the library community truly is.
October's BIC Breakfast explored LCF in its entirety, discussing its origins, the benefits and challenges of its usage and what will come next. A mix of RFID / LMS vendors joined BIC to learn about what LCF is and how it can positively affect libraries from 2016 and beyond.
Speakers at this event included: Alaina-Marie Bassett, BIC; Michael Fortune, Consultant; Anthony Whitford, Capita; and Catherine Cooke, Westminster Libraries.
Wednesday 31st December 2014 was the sunset date for ONIX 2.1. Many organisations have made the transition to ONIX 3.0, while others are still limited to the legacy version.
Last year, BIC held 3 sold-out BIC Breakfasts on migrating from ONIX 2.1 to 3.0 and in July 2015, half way through 2015, this topic was revisited to review the book industry's progress so far. September's BIC Breakfast, due to popular demand, was a repeat of this popular event!
Reported on the level of ONIX 3.0 adoption worldwide.
Speakers at this event included: Karina Luke, BIC; Jack Tipping, Bowker; Alex Ingram, EDItEUR; and Jo Burges, Ashgate Publishing Group.
In the age of self-publishing, where myriad public identities are coming to the fore, the challenge for the book industry – and many other industries – to identify creators and their related works is becoming ever more convoluted. Who is to say whether Michele Smith the author is in fact one and the same as Michele Smith the musician?
That's where the ISNI (International Standard Name Identifier) comes in. Formulated by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), ISNI is the certified global standard number for identifying contributors to creative works and those active in their distribution, including writers, researchers, publishers, aggregators and many more.
August's BIC Breakfast explored ISNIs, their uses and the benefits they provide within multiple creative industries. The Breakfast began with an introduction to the topic by Andrew MacEwan (British Library & ISNI Board member), followed by a discussion about the uses and benefits of ISNI to the Copyright Hub by Caroline Boyd and Dominic Young. Finally, Raymond Drewry (EIDR) put ISNI use into context, providing attendees with an insight into the uses of ISNI within the entertainment industry.
Speakers at this event included: Alaina-Marie Bassett, BIC; Andrew MacEwan, British Library; Caroline Boyd & Dominic Young, Copyright Hub; and Raymond Drewry, Entertainment Identifier Registry (EIDR).
Last year, BIC held 3 sold-out BIC Breakfasts on migrating from ONIX 2.1 to 3.0 and in July, half way through 2015, this topic was revisited to review the book industry's progress so far.
Speakers at this event included: Alaina-Marie Bassett, BIC; Jack Tipping, Bowker; Graham Bell, EDItEUR; and Josephine Burges, Ashgate Publishing Group.
How efficient is your publishing business? As the combination of sales channels and content formats becomes ever more complex, publishers are faced with the challenge of processing and making sense of increasingly diverse data.
In the fast-changing world of publishing, businesses need timely, accurate and complete management information to make good marketing and investment decisions, and the pressure on back-office functions to calculate and pay royalties promptly and accurately is growing exponentially.
June's BIC Breakfast focused on the importance of having processes and systems that enable efficient and auditable collection and consolidation of data with appropriate reporting capabilities, to minimise the amount of time spent on collating information and to deliver the flexible and reliable management information that all successful businesses need.
Speakers at this event included: Alaina-Marie Bassett, BIC; Ian Singer, PKF Littlejohn LLP; Jack Tipping, Bowker; Michael Addison, Hymns Ancient and Modern Ltd; and Graham Bell, EDItEUR.
Content providers all over the world have long recognised the value attached to licensing. In the book world, margins continue to be squeezed and it's clear that maximising the rights to all titles across as many territories as possible remains the key to being profitable.
Simplicity, speed and transparency – especially in the digital world – are integral components in generating more business in any sector and this is especially evident when it comes to licensing. A strong technological solution is often the common driving force.
May's BIC Breakfast discussed how best to protect your content, the ways in which technology is facilitating the distribution and licensing of works, and also the ways in which technology levelling the playing field for publishers large and small across both established and emerging territories.
Speakers at this event included: Alaina-Marie Bassett, BIC; Tom Chalmers, IPR License; Emma House, The Publishers Association; and Christopher Smith, Intellectual Property Office.
In today's market, the discoverability of books online is almost certainly paramount to achieving success, yet the use of keywords is a relatively elusive and misunderstood practice. This BIC Breakfast addressed that void, detailing how to increase the likelihood of consumers finding a specific book on search engines and retailer websites, and therefore how to enhance the Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) for your products.
April's BIC Breakfast, which took place on Thursday 23rd April 2015, provided guidance for both senders and receivers of ONIX feeds on how best to utilise keywords in their metadata, including the choice of keywords, the structuring of the metadata itself, and how to update keywords to reflect the most relevant information for the targeted audience.
Speakers at this event will included: Alaina-Marie Bassett, BIC; Jack Tipping, Bowker; Azar Hussain, Faber & Faber; and Toby Gill, Virtusales Publishing Solutions.
In the past two decades, the book industry has changed dramatically, not least in the area of book production and the way printed articles are stored and inventory managed. Print On Demand (POD) was born of, and has in turn influenced, this need for change; arguably the use of POD technologies, and the implementation of associated workflows and business models, may facilitate a reduction in storage costs, inventory costs and freight expenditure. Today we pose the question: is POD behaving as expected?
In March's BIC Breakfast, which took place on Tuesday 24th March 2015, discussed POD and short run printing, investigating the ways in which POD, inkjet printing and offset printing differ from one another; and outlining the benefits and drawbacks of each. As part of an agnostic panel, our speakers – from printer, trade and academic backgrounds – discussed their experiences of POD. They also addressed: the current requirements placed on suppliers to continue to innovate this production method; the question of quality versus timeliness; and investigated how centralised POD is, or is not, as a revenue stream.
Speakers at this event included: Alaina-Marie Bassett, BIC; Jean Roberts, Printondemand-worldwide; Andy Cork, Printondemand-worldwide; Gareth Jarrett, Taylor & Francis Group; and Nancy Roberts, Cambridge University Press.
One of the greatest challenges facing publishers in a disrupted, fast-changing world is that of innovation: it's known to be necessary for survival, but so often it is expensive, risky and time-consuming. Publishers are constrained by their existing infrastructure and unsure which of the many opportunities to pursue, and they find it hard to translate ideas into testable products.
February's BIC Breakfast introduced attendees to a model used extensively by software developers which has tremendous significance for all organisations seeking to meet the challenge of innovation: agile and lean techniques.
This BIC Breakfast, which took place on 24th February 2015, introduced attendees to the principles of agile project management and explored the ways in which agile principles can be applied within the book industry to encourage rapid, customer-focused innovation for organisations; with a particular emphasis on publishers.
The Breakfast began with a brief introduction to agile and lean techniques followed by a broader discussion of how these principles can help organisations to be more innovative in all areas of their business, not just in their use of technology.
Speakers at this event included: Alaina-Marie Bassett, BIC; David Montgomery, Publishing Technology; Alison Jones, Practical Inspiration Publishing; Stephanie Chamberlain, Magic Milestones Ltd.
Kicking off the year as we mean to go on, January's BIC Breakfast focused on Basic Metadata: how to get it right and keep it right.
Metadata sounds boring to some, and intimidating to others. However, it is simple and crucial for the discoverability of print and eBooks. In a time where digital products and sales are taking over – it's often one of the most underrated and overlooked areas of discussion. This BIC Breakfast addressed that void! It discussed the basic mandatory fields for metadata that every organisation should be supplying, and provided attendees with examples of what basic metadata should look like.
Speakers at this event will included: Alaina-Marie Bassett, BIC; Alex Murphy, Stison; Dunia Garcia-Ontiveros, The London Library; and Jack Tipping, Bowker.
Taking place on Thursday 23rd October, the content of this session will relate to the question of the change in EU VAT regulations on e-services that is due to come into effect in January 2015, and the implications of these changes for supply chain stakeholders. We are delighted to have 2 authoritative representatives from HMRC attending this session as speakers.
As ever, this BIC Breakfast will be a great opportunity to share insights with fellow book industry professionals, while simultaneously being an informal setting to network and have a spot of breakfast.
Speakers at this event included: Andrew Webb, Project Leader for HMRC on this topic; Des Farndell, HMRC; Ian Singer, PKF Littlejohn; and Bob Jones, HMRC.
Back for the third and final time, due to popular demand, this very popular BIC Breakfast took place again in Bowker's lovely London office: 5th Floor, 3 Dorset Rise, London EC4Y 8EN and focused on the migration from ONIX 2 to 3. This re-run took place on Tuesday 14th October. Speakers at this event included: Karina Luke, BIC; Jack Tipping, Bowker; and Graham Bell, EDItEUR.
This BIC Breakfast took place on Thursday 18th September at Le Pain Quotidien's Borough Branch. The session focused on the changes in EU Timber Regulations, to include the 2015 extension that will affect printed materials. It also focused on the preparations organisations should be considering to put in place in order to stay ahead of the game, raising questions such as: How will your systems and processes cope? What are other industries already doing to address these changes? What impact will these changes have on your organisation? It provided attendees with a wonderful opportunity to talk directly to someone who has extensive experience working with the regs, who could offer real-life examples of how to prepare for the changes.
Speakers at this event will included: Karina Luke, BIC; Nick Sammons, Carnstone Partners LLP; and Michael Worrell, National Measurement Office.

On Wednesday 27th March, our third BIC Breakfast tok place in the CILIP Building: 7 Ridgmount Street, London WC1E 7AE. This March BIC Breakfast looked comparatively at ONIX 3 and ONIX 2.1, discussing the reasons why organisations should consider changing to ONIX 3 and the benefits of this process. The guest speaker of this session was Graham Bell, Chief Data Architect at EDItEUR. Other speakers included Karina Luke, BIC.
Graham also runs BIC's 'Bibliographic Metadata and ONIX: practical guidance and best practice' and 'Advanced ONIX for Books' courses.
Another sold out event, February's BIC Breakfast looked at the 2013 enactment of legal deposit legislation. The event took place on Thursday 28th February and provided publishers with the opportunity to hear about these new regulations, to learn about the deposit options available to them and to assess their implications for your business. The British Library is keen to engage with the major players in the industry and work with BIC towards an efficient streamlined deposit process in the digital space. If publishers wish to learn more about the new regulations they should contact the British Library directly for further information.
On Thursday 21 January 2013, we held our first ever BIC Breakfast at Bowker's London office. This session focussed on Metadata and was completely sold out! Guest speakers at this BIC Breakfast included Emma Barnes, co-founder and MD of Snowbooks; Karina Luke, BIC; and Jack Tipping, Bowker.

Great seats just 11 rows up from the visiting team's bullpen (pitchers to the right, catchers to the left).
Tix are sold at face value. Actual ticket price is set by the Giants and varies by game. Average for the season is about $110/pair.
I'd be interested in 5/20, 5/21, 6/11, 8/20, 10/1 and 10/2 for sure. If you don't have those left I can take a look at what else is available. I'd definitely be interested in an ongoing relationship going forward as well!
Most of what's left are weekday games. Premium weekend games like those you listed went first, not surprisingly.
Do you have any tickets available?
Yes, are there particular games you're looking for? I'm flexible on the minimum number of games. Thanks!

Lady Gaga/Instagram
Lady Gaga took a time off from her busy schedule to visit residents who were forced to evacuate their homes, as the fires in California continue to rage.
Though she too had to abandon her home in Malibu but she didn't forget to share happiness and hope to the victims. She brought boxes of pizza, coffee and gift cards to one of the evacuation centers in Los Angeles
The singer stopped at a Red Cross shelter at Pacific Palisades High School on Sunday and told the crowd, "I extend my love to each and every one of you. I know we do not know each other, but I love you. This is an emergency, but you are not alone and we have each other."
Gaga also thanked the firefighters who were working to put out the fire and keep it at bay.
"Thank you to the fire fighters, police, first and emergency responders for doing above and beyond everything you can do to help us. You are true heroes. #CaliforniaFire," Gaga wrote in another message.
The California fires have killed more than 40 people as of Tuesday morning and has left countless of residents homeless including celebrities like Miley Cyrus, Neil Young, and Gerard Butler.

Whether you are brand new in your position or just wanting to start the year on the right note, here are four simple steps that you can do today to ensure that your organization is copyright compliant for the coming year and beyond.
For those needing visual support, the script notes are printed below. Thanks for reviewing this important information, and please share with your teams!
This includes the title, composer, copyright year, and any other information included in the reprint box of the given song as well as your ONE LICENSE reprint information.
Be sure old company names are removed. Only ONE LICENSE should be listed, and not any reference to OneLicense . net, Word of Life International, or LicenSingOnline.
Be sure the phrase "Reprinted with permission under ONE LICENSE #[insert letter-numbers]. All rights reserved." is printed on your worship aids, bulletins, projection screens, YouTube videos, Facebook Lives, and anywhere else that reprinted or streamed music is used.
From the "Report Usage" tab, account owners, sub users, and group managers can review the current quarterly reporting period, meaning what titles have been submitted for twelve weeks in the past and six weeks into the future, as well as their legacy reports and twelve month histories.
To view past reports or download a copy of your twelve month reporting history, scroll to the bottom of the page and click the appropriate link. This is a great way to audit your usage and hold your team accountable for anything missing.
Go through file cabinets, old book shelves, and even pay a visit to that dusty old storage room. Non-congregational music that was photocopied without the express consent of the publisher is illegal and can carry debilitating fines. Even if you didn't photocopy the music yourself, if your church or organization is in possession of or distributes illegal copies, you could be faced with a claim of copyright infringement.
Before destroying the music, take note of the titles, composers, and publishers of the pieces so you can contact them for legal octavos or versions. Protect your organization and prioritize this task.
Confirm that your category size correctly matches your average weekly attendance.
Every organization that has a license with us, is set into an average weekly attendance category. This category indicates the range of people you have attending your services. These ranges ensure that whether you have a dip in summer attendance and a spike around the holidays, or if you have traveling college students or snow birds, your organization will be covered regardless of the season.
You can view your current category from the "Licenses" tab under "My Account". Visit the Options & Prices page to see the range of categories and make sure your organization is in the right one. Typically, you can communicate increases or decreases when your invoice is up for renewal. If your category change is significant, please contact our office and we can assist in prorating your account.
Thanks for taking a few minutes to review this information. I hope you feel empowered to follow up with your team on these four important steps to ensure your organization is copyright compliant this year and beyond. As always, please reach out to our team at info@onelicense.net if you have additional questions. Have a great year, everyone!

This is a development scratch pad to outline a few of the requirements and ideas about how to better handle the ticket fields.
For now, this puts aside the generalization of such fields to other objects/resources than Tickets (see GenericTrac for that, 0.12 material).
there should be some forward thinking for #2464. Possibly #3281 and the functionality of TH:SimpleTicketPlugin could be implemented.
A new API for dealing with fields according to the 4 points detailed above should be introduced. The old 0.9 - 0.11 API should be preserved, as there's a bunch of scripts all over the Trac world that probably depend on it, so ideally no existing method should be modified (I'm thinking in particular to TicketSystem.get_ticket_fields).
Instead, a new set of methods and objects should be introduced. In order to avoid any confusion between the old and new ways, I propose to use the term property instead of field. This matches the user-visible Properties label displayed in the ticket UI.
There will be a Property class and a set of basic subclasses that correspond to the main types of fields. A resource (tickets only for now) will define the set of properties that it provides (first in TicketSystem.get_ticket_properties(), but preferably later in TicketDescriptor.get_properties(), with TicketDescriptor a subclass of ResourceDescriptor, the generic handle for resources).
A Property subclass will have methods and attributes for answering the needs enumerated above.
render_editor(context, name, mode, value). There could also be a validation method supporting validation requests that would be handled by a generic property module.
render_selector(context, name, mode, values), for e.g. the query module.

Bangladesh aiming to put World Cup debacle behind them: Shakib
April 9th, 2011 - 12:22 pm ICT by ANI Tweet
Dhaka, Apr 9(ANI): Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan, whose team failed to qualify for the World Cup quarterfinals, has said that they would prove themselves during the ongoing three-match ODI series against Australia.
Bangladesh had crashed out of the six-week tournament on the Indian sub-continent after finishing fifth in Group B with six points.
"We will have to do better than what we did at the World Cup. We have been fortunate to get another chance to prove ourselves. What we will be looking for is to play some good cricket," the Sydney Morning Herald quoted Shakib, as saying.
"We might not have the same pressure we had at the World Cup and will be trying to put up our best performance against them," he added.
The first game of the series is being played at Dhaka. The remaining games will be played on April 11 and 13. (ANI)

Russia says U.S. may go beyond European missile plans
MOSCOW, February 19 (RIA Novosti) - Moscow is not ruling out that Washington may go further than its missile defense plans for Central Europe, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Thursday.
"We have not yet received a clear answer, a denial at least, to our question whether the U.S. plans to deploy a fourth and fifth missile defense site," Lavrov said upon his return from Bahrain.
Lavrov added that the Russian Foreign Ministry had also not heard anything about U.S. plans to cut its nuclear potential by 80%.
"We have not heard anything about our partners' proposal to reduce nuclear arsenals by 80%.
We plan, as soon as the United States establishes its disarmament team, to hold a new round of talks on a mechanism to replace the START-1 treaty which expires this December," the top Russian diplomat said.
He assured reporters that Russia would proceed from the need to maintain strategic parity and ensure strategic stability which he said primarily depended on agreements between Russia and U.S.
U.S. President Barack Obama has said he may put on hold his predecessor's plans to deploy 10 missiles in Poland and a radar in the Czech Republic, which he said needed more analysis.
Washington has moved to find a compromise on the missile shield dispute with Moscow, which opposes the plans, and has sought closer cooperation with Russia to prevent Iran from building nuclear weapons. The missile threat from Iran has been cited as a reason for deploying the new bases in Central Europe.

Nana and Poppie were here, so we had our own little Easter egg hunt.
Is this an obstacle course, or what?
Thank you for coming Nana and Poppie and Aunt Andi and Aunt Cheri!
Maybe not, the Easter Bunny brought me more gifts!
My friend, Grace, got baptised during the church service. Mommy and Daddy told me that's what Easter is really about. Jesus is alive!
There was a huge Easter egg hunt after church. Like my ears??
I got to go to the zoo on Saturday. It was a beautiful day and I saw lots of animals.
Aunt Cheri loves rhinos, so we just had to take this picture.
I liked looking at the water everywhere we went. There were big fish and lots of turtles in there!
I enjoyed watching my cousins play on their huge playground...sorry Thatch!
I had a wonderful first birthday and birthday party. Thank you to everyone who came to celebrate with me and everyone else who sent gifts and love.
It was a Tigger theme since Mommy and Daddy think I like to bounce like Tigger does.
Gram made me this wonderful cake. She put a lot of work into it and was showing me the progress.
Just haning out with some of the family. It was a great day!
These are all for me???
Mommy and I look at some new books. I love books!
Oh, this is the right way!
Me and Thatch playing on the playground. This is going to be fun this summer!
Wearing my Tigger ears...why is everyone singing to me??
Thatch and I might fight over our favorite toys! Nana and Poppie gave me this cool truck.
Thanks again everyone! I had a GRRRREAT time!
Poppie is always saying that everyone is going to eat a pound of dirt in their life, some do it all at once. Well, Poppie, I've started!
It was a beautiful day and Mommy wanted to work in the flower bed. We all went outside together. It was my first real time to play outside. I didn't much want to walk behind my push toy with Daddy to get the mail.
Then I got curious about this stuff Mommy was digging in.
But Mommy, I couldn't help it!! I had to taste it!!!
We had some really cold weather last week. Unfortunately, we didn't get all the snow like my cousin, Thatcher. Me, Mommy, and Daddy did stay in with a fire and play all evening, though. Boy, was it fun!!!
I liked looking at the fire. It is really pretty.
Get a look at me up close! Cheese!!
Mommy and Daddy say I'm preaching when I do this and bounce and talk. I just want somebody to understand what I'm saying. I have good points!
This is one of my favorite toys. (Thank you Jenny!!) I get really excited when it starts popping balls into the air and playing music.

Ecuador Combats Narcotrafficking with US Support
The Ecuadorean National Police seized 2,250 kg of cocaine in Guayaquil Port, on August 30, 2020. The drug was bound for Belgium. (Photo: Ecuadorean National Police)

The U.S. government assigned $7 million to Ecuador on September 3, 2020 to improve the infrastructure of the justice and security department, to strengthen the fight against narcotrafficking and transnational organized crime. The Ecuadorean National Police has been keeping up the fight against narcotrafficking, and has seized more than 9.6 tons of drugs from August 30 through September 9.
"International cooperation comes as a strategic support option for national objectives in the fight against these global scourges," Ecuadorean Foreign Minister Luis Gallegos said, after highlighting that relations between both countries are in their best phase.
The funds will help activate technical assistance programs, training, equipment donations, and infrastructure refurbishments for institutions in the justice and security system, in addition to the nearly $10.5 million that the U.S. Congress approved in 2018, the U.S. Embassy in Ecuador said.
U.S. Ambassador to Ecuador Michael J. Fitzpatrick added that the United States will continue providing assistance to "implement good practices that equip police, prosecutors, judges, and Coast Guard Command personnel, so they have the tools for combating criminal networks and international mafias effectively."
The work of the Ecuadorean National Police continues to yield results. In an operation carried out in a hotel in Esmeraldas province on September 11, police officers seized 1,028 kilograms of cocaine hidden in boxes of shrimp that were bound for international markets. Authorities detained three people in this operation.
In another operation, police units carried out 11 interventions from September 5 to 9 in different provinces of the country, seizing 6.4 tons of marijuana and cocaine. Authorities arrested 12 citizens of different nationalities, the police said.
On August 30, security forces dealt another blow to narcotrafficking in the port of Guayaquil. The operation resulted in the seizure of 2.2 tons of cocaine hidden inside two containers on a ship that was four hours away from sailing to Belgium, the Ecuadorean magazine Vistazo reported.
From January to August 2020, the police seized 61 tons of drugs and destroyed 17 clandestine airstrips nationwide, which is equivalent to an average seizure of about 1.5 tons of drugs per week, the Ecuadorean newspaper El Universo said.
