PROBLEM: Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas  on Friday urged France and Europe to play a stronger role in peace efforts  insisting  he 'll no longer accept any U.S. plans for Mideast peace because of the Trump administration's recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital.
 Abbas  met French President Emmanuel Macron in Paris a day after the U.N. General Assembly resolution denouncing President Donald Trump's decision.
 Abbas  said the United States is "no longer an honest mediator in the peace process."
"We will not accept any plan from the United States of America because of its bias and violation of the international law "  he  said.
 Abbas  also denounced the U.S threat to cut financial aid for countries who voted to back the U.N. resolution. "We call upon countries that did not recognize Palestine yet to do so to preserve the two-state solution before it's too late "  he  added.
Macron reaffirmed  his  disapproval of Trump's decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital.  The French president  recalled  he  met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu earlier this month in Paris and urged  him  to make "courageous gestures" to help revive peace talks  including freezing Israel's construction of settlements on occupied lands.

PROBLEM: DENPASAR  Indonesia (Reuters) - Indonesia raised its warning for  Baliâs Mount Agung volcano  to the top level four alert on Monday  closed the holiday islandâs airport and told residents around the mountain to immediately evacuate  warning of an âimminentâ risk of a larger eruption.

Baliâs airport was closed for 24 hours from Monday morning  disrupting 445 flights and some 59 000 passengers  due to the eruption and the presence of volcanic ash from  Agung   but local officials said the closure could be extended.
âThe potential for a larger eruption is imminent â it said  referring to the visible glow of magma at Agungâs peak overnight.
Residents were warned to âimmediately evacuateâ a danger zone that circles Agung in a radius of 8-10 km (5-6 miles).
 Agung  rises majestically over eastern Bali to a height of just over 3 000 metres (9 800 feet). Eastern Bali is relatively undeveloped  with traditional rice paddies doting the landscape and the occasional budget resort  unlike the heavily populated southern tourist hub of Kuta-Seminyak-Nusa Dua.
 Agung âs last eruption in 1963 left more than 1 000 people dead and razed several villages.
Analysis suggested the threat should not be as great this time because âenergy at  Mount Agungâs  magma chamber is not as bigâ and with the ash column only around a quarter as high so far as the 20 km (12 miles) reached in 1963  said Sutopo.
Tourism business has slumped in Bali since September when  Agung âs volcanic tremors began to increase.

According to the Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre in nearby Darwin  Australia  there is âash confirmed on the ground at Denpasar Airportâ as well as ash at FL300 (which refers to flight level at 30 000 feet) in the vicinity of  the volcano .
Baliâs I Gusti Ngurah Rai airport  which is about 60 km (40 miles) from  the volcano   will be closed for 24 hours  according to its operator. A total of 445 flights - 196 international and 249 domestic - and 59 000 passengers had been affected.

The alert level on  Agung  had been raised to the maximum in September  but was lowered in October when seismic activity calmed. However  volcanologists now say the volcano has entered a new phase with magma now visible at  Agung âs peak  meaning a greater risk of a larger eruption.

PROBLEM: TALLAHASSEE  Fla. (AP) —  Willie Taggart  grew up a Florida State fan and dreamed of playing for the Seminoles.
 He  never donned the garnet and gold as a player  but has managed to one-up that goal.
 Taggart  was introduced as the 11th head coach in Florida State history on Wednesday as  he  returns to the Sunshine State after one season at Oregon. The 41-year old Bradenton native coached at South Florida from 2013-16 before taking the Ducks job.

Three days after Fisher resigned   Taggart  met with Florida State President John Thrasher  athletic director Stan Wilcox and board of trustees member Ed Burr on Monday in Scottsdale  Arizona. After weighing the offer overnight   Taggart  accepted on Tuesday and informed  his  players at Oregon .
 He  arrived in Tallahassee early Wednesday morning and met with the team before the news conference.  Taggart  said  he  appreciated Oregon athletic director Rod Mullens for giving  him   his  first chance at a Power Five job  but that the chance to coach at the school  he  has followed since childhood was too good to pass up.
"I know I let  him  down and I'm sorry. The timing was probably not right but it is never right "  Taggart  said. "This one chance was perfect. To be closer to family and coach in a Power Five and an opportunity to win a national championship are personal goals."
Wilcox said there were a number of candidates for the job but that  Taggart  was  his  top choice.
"We had a number of candidates but knew  his  passion would rise to the top "  he  said.
Thrasher said  he  had a feeling early last week that Fisher was going to leave and that it was time to look at their options.

The Seminoles ran a pro-style offense under Fisher but  Taggart 's "Gulf Coast Offense" is spread based.  Taggart 's offenses have ranked in the top 20 in scoring the past two years.

 Taggart 's immediate goals will be completing  his  staff and trying to salvage a recruiting class — at least six players have de-committed over the past week. This is the first year football has an early-signing period  which will take place Dec. 20-22.
