An acquittal is hardly sufficient to lance the cancer that has metastasized throughout the upper echelons of the Adams administration. The catastrophic implosion of Adams’ administration over the past several weeks can not be undone. Here we are endlessly counting the hours ’til our next meal and all we keep hearing all day is, “Yum,” “Yum,” Yum”! There’s an entire West Coast that also wants to watch playoff baseball and live in a time zone three hours earlier than us. If East Coast kids have to stay up a little late so West Coast kids can see Aaron Judge or Francisco Lindor, it’s a small sacrifice.

The Allied Pilots Association (APA), which represents pilots for American Airlines, is supporting Ethiopian in its claim against Boeing. APA spokesman and American Airlines Boeing 737 MAX pilot Dennis Tajer, commented that: “Who knows what Ethiopian Airlines would have done with the information, but not having it sealed the deal. Any information given the Ethiopian pilots, like we had, could have made the difference between life and death.”“Our meeting with Boeing covered the same questions that the Ethiopian pilots were asking. Boeing co-operated fully and transparently with all investigations into the accidents.”Paul G. Cassell, a lawyer representing families is critical, saying that: “It’s outrageous that Boeing refused to answer direct questions from the Ethiopian airlines pilots. That was vital safety information that would have saved 157 lives.

The leaders of Eritrea, Egypt, and Somalia have solidified an alliance formed amid strained relations with Ethiopia, following a summit in the Eritrean capital on Thursday (October 10). Security and cooperationOne of the primary outcomes of the meeting was the formation of a trilateral committee comprising the foreign ministers of Eritrea, Egypt, and Somalia. The deepening ties between Eritrea, Egypt, and Somalia may further complicate the already fraught relations, particularly with Addis Ababa. Ethiopia and Eritrea had previously signed a peace agreement in 2018, ending decades of hostilities that followed a brutal border war. While the leaders of Somalia, Eritrea, and Egypt denied any intentions to escalate tensions with Ethiopia, the formation of this alliance will likely be viewed with concern in Addis Ababa.

Zambia Airways, whose flights to Nairobi had been blocked, has released its flight schedule after the resolution of the dispute, even as compliance queries remain. Nairobi had barred the airline over its failure to comply with the international civil aviation rules and regulations. At the centre of the storm is the shareholding arrangement between the Zambian government and Ethiopian Airlines, with the latter owning 45 percent shareholding of the Zambian carrier. If the wet-leased aircraft were listed by the Zambia Civil Aviation Authority, the dispute would never have arisen, Kenyan civil aviation authorities say. The ZCAA confirmed that they have a shareholding deal with Ethiopian Airlines, but denied that that was the cause of friction between the two States.

Viewed by some as a crisis, a group of artists and art world leaders are partnering with artificial intelligence to strengthen the industry’s present and plot a brighter future. While it threatens to upend everything from white-collar work to term paper composition, the art world is wrestling with its predicted effect.

The leaders of Egypt, Eritrea and Somalia met for a three-way summit in Asmara on Thursday against a backdrop of heightened tensions in the Horn of Africa region. The maritime agreement infuriated Mogadishu and highlighted regional rivalries as relations soured between Ethiopia and neighbouring Somalia as well as Egypt. Mohamud, who has already visited Eritrea several times, held separate talks with Isaias shortly after his arrival late Wednesday, the ministry said. It is his first visit to Asmara although Isaias has visited Egypt on several occasions. Relations between Addis Ababa and Asmara have also been deteriorating recently, even though Eritrean troops backed Ethiopian government forces in the brutal 2020-2022 war against Tigrayan rebels.
