A fight on West Market Street prompted Johnson City police to arrest a Kentucky Street man Monday, and charges were pending against two others.
Earl Thomas Mitchell III, 30, 810 Kentucky St., was charged with aggravated assault after the incident at Jim's Motorcycle Sales, 1211 W. Market St.
Police said in a news release the investigation revealed that a man had been assaulted by three males at the shop, causing "moderate" injury. The victim, identified in a police report as Anthony A. Overstreet, 21, was taken to Johnson City Medical Center for treatment.
Mitchell was stopped in a vehicle witnesses to the fight said left the scene, police said, and charges against two other suspects were pending further investigation.
According to a report, police were called to the shop about 10:15 p.m. about a fight in progress, and 911 dispatchers reported that three vehicles were leaving the scene. Police spotted a gray Volkswagen Golf traveling on West Market Street without lights.
At the scene, police found Overstreet bleeding from his face and having trouble staying awake. Several witnesses told police that three male assailants had attacked Overstreet. The witnesses told police the fight started because one of the attackers thought Overstreet had been "running his mouth." The assailants attacked Overstreet from behind, hit him and kicked him, the witnesses told police.
Overstreet suffered moderate head trauma, a dislocated shoulder and several scrapes, scratches and bruises, police said in the report. Overstreet was listed in fair condition at JCMC on Tuesday.
Witnesses told police one of the attackers drove off in a white Cavalier and intentionally struck a female victim. Police said she received minor injuries but did not identify her in the report.
After stopping the Volkswagen, police took one of the witnesses to the vehicle, and he identified Mitchell as one of the people who attacked Overstreet, police said.
Mitchell told police he had been at the fight but was not involved and did not know who had attacked Overstreet because it was too dark, police said in the report.
Mitchell had two children with him during the fight, police said, and the Department of Children's Services placed them with an aunt.
Police had two other suspects in the case, and charges were pending until Overstreet could view a photo lineup, police said in the report.
Mitchell was jailed in the Washington County Detention Center on $50,000 bond pending a Sessions Court appearance Aug. 8.

With cremation services, we at the Karvonen & Son Funeral Home believe you should be able to choose the type of service that you find most meaningful. That's why our list of services includes many options.
Contrary to what most people believe, cremation does not limit one's choices, nor does the choice of cremation necessarily eliminate a funeral service. A funeral service followed by cremation need be no different than a funeral service followed by earth burial. Following the funeral service and cremation, the cremated remains are usually placed in an urn before being committed to a final resting place. The cremation urn may be interred in an existing family burial plot, interred in a special cremation memorial or placed in an indoor or outdoor cemetery columbarium.
Can there be funeral services or ceremonies if cremation is chosen?Cremation does not limit, but in fact increases the options available. The options for ceremonies prior to or following the cremation can include the selection of a casket or an urn, visitation with the body present (or memorial visitation where the urn is the focal point), a display of photographs or personal effects and awards, the location of the funeral ceremony and selection of music.
What is involved in the cremation process?Before cremation occurs, medical authorities must have issued all required authorizations and permits. In addition, necessary authorizations to cremate must be obtained from the next of kin or authorizing person and no objections to the cremation can be raised. The cremation then takes place and the cremated remains are placed in the designated container or urn selected for final disposition.
What happens to the cremated remains?There are many options to consider with a cremation. A family can choose to bury the remains in a cemetery, store and display them at home in an urn or scatter them in a place special to the deceased. It is advisable to check local restrictions on scattering remains on public property and obtain permission for private property.

Pediatric Dentistry
The Department of Pediatric Dentistry has a well established and long history of conducting research in a wide variety of fields to improve the oral health of children. The department is currently involved in research in areas of genetics, child health services research, and clinical studies. Faculty, residents, PhD students and dental students are all actively involved in interdisciplinary research projects. In addition to the descriptions below more information about the Department of Pediatric Dentistry's diverse research program can be found at ReachNC. ReachNC is a Web portal that enables users to search, browse and find experts and assets within North Carolina higher education and research institutions.
The Department of Pediatric Dentistry is actively involved in craniofacial genetics research and has been a leader in this field. Current research investigates the molecular control of tooth formation and the identification and characterization of hereditary conditions involving the craniofacial complex. These studies involve human and mouse models. The Department has substantial funding from the National Institute of Dental Research for characterization of the phenotype and genotype of hereditary craniofacial conditions such as cleft palate and amelogenesis imperfecta. The Department is also engaged in investigations to understand environment and genetic interactions of conditions such as fluorosis and determinants of bone density.
Health Services Research is the pursuit of knowledge and the understanding of the financing, organization, delivery, and outcomes of health services. Translation to better patient care and providing policymakers and other health care leaders with information needed to make critical health care decisions. The department is actively involved in all four major domains of health services research: quality, effectiveness efficiency and ecology. More specifically current-ongoing studies examine healthcare disparities in oral healthcare delivered to low-income young children, dental health professional shortage areas, and costs effectiveness studies of publicly financed programs.

Manufacturing in Herkimer County is getting a jolt.
By mid-July, ELG Utica Alloys will occupy one of two former Herkimer Distribution buildings in the village, bringing its 85 employees from its Rome and Utica facilities to the county.
Manufacturing in Herkimer County is getting a jolt.
By mid-July, ELG Utica Alloys will occupy one of two former Herkimer Distribution buildings in the village, bringing its 85 employees from its Rome and Utica facilities to the county.
"We have to move everything in stages because we can't shut down production," Vice President Fred Schweizer said.
Mark Feane, Herkimer County Industrial Development Agency director, said the move not only brings employees to the area to spend money during their breaks or on their way home, it's a testament to business success in the county.
"Some (businesses) are adding to the workforce, following the lead of Remington Arms," he said. "That kind of confidence, when other companies see that, they think they can do it here as well."
Remington Arms in Ilion recently landed an $83.9 million contract with the U.S. Army to manufacture more than 100,000 M-4 rifles, in turn creating up to 50 jobs.
These businesses provide promise for attracting others, Feane said, noting the Frankfort Route 5S Business Park site, nicknamed the "Pumpkin Patch," is one area they hope to develop.
Even though manufacturing job numbers have been sliced in half since 1990 in Oneida and Herkimer counties — from 22,600 to 11,000 — those that remain in Herkimer County appear to be stable.
Utica Alloys is a nickel-based superalloy and titanium processing plant that recycles scrap metals for use by other businesses.
The move to Herkimer, where nickel-based superalloys will be processed, provides more room for production, and the company will be able to take in more business, Schweizer said. Down the line, employment opportunities might be available, he added. He would not comment on the amount of money the business generates.
Schweizer said the former Herkimer Distributions site provides more room to work, including ceilings as high as 44 feet.
"This is really the big plus of this building," Schweizer said.
Utica Alloys started renovations in September, Schweizer said, and then began moving its operations in March. He would not disclose the cost of renovations.
When the move is complete, the Rome location, which Utica Alloys leased, will go back on the market, and Leland Avenue will be used for processing and storage, Schweizer said.
Mark Vivacqua, superintendent of Herkimer-Fulton-Hamilton-Otsego BOCES across the street from the manufacturing site on Gros Boulevard, said it's nice to see the building occupied again.
"We've had several different businesses next door," he said. "If anything, it's good to see the space utilized."
Since BOCES prepares students for employment in fields such as science, technology and math, Vivacqua said he'd be interested to see whether internships could be an opportunity in the future.
"Utica Alloys is compatible with what we have to stress here," he said, noting that reuse and recycling is a hot topic. Feane said it's good for the company to have moved to a location that could accommodate all the business's needs.
Page 2 of 2 - "They searched sites covering a multitude of counties," he said. "I think it's fortunate that they found a site in Herkimer County."

In the promo images, there's one awesome pic with half of M4's face and the other half the M4 Cyborg.
Is this postwork or is there some way to do this?
I'm stuck at work, so haven't yet had a chance to play with it.
Just wondering.
No Post-work. Just hid key parts and used a magnet on the head. No transmaps were used.
Does anyone know if this will work in DS3, especially the mats?
Yes, they were made in DS3

It may not be hot enough to fry an egg on the road, but it's getting so hot some roads are beginning to buckle.
Crews today completed repairs on one lane of U.S. 287 at Oklaunion and will fix the other lane Monday.
The buckling happened Tuesday morning at the base of the bridge over railroad tracks near Oklaunion.
Buckling of roads is especially common where pavement of roadways and bridges meet, and often results when clay soil is contracting and pavement is expanding.
The northbound, right hand lane of 287 West of Oklaunion was closed after the buckling, and repairs were completed today.
Both lanes are now open.
But on Monday, the left hand lane will be closed for repairs.
It will probably be closed 3 days while the concrete cures.
Another roadway buckled in Lawton yesterday on Cache Road causing traffic jams as three lanes were reduced to one.
In both cases the roadways apparently buckled in the morning hours, after and before the heat of the day.


text: To go along with our Under the Sea nursery from Monday I found this tutorial from Paper & Ink to make your own jellyfish light fixture. Using a paper lantern from Ikea and tissue paper you can have a customized jellyfish for your Under the Sea nursery. I'd like to see this with a colored lantern too.

^ I don't get this, My write cache is enabled and I have hit the reset button plenty of times with no issues. How would this be a file system issue ? If you've got redundancy surely the file system would be happy.
We have a 100GB ReFS volume. The volume was filled to capacity and now the volume is unaccesible. If you click on the drive letter in Windows Explorer it displays the following "W:\ is not accessible. The volume repair was not successful." There are several events in the system event log for event ID 133. "The file system detected a checksum error and was not able to correct it. The name of the file or folder is "<unable to determine file name>"." I have tried added additional space to the drive via Disk Management as well but it failed with the following error. "The volume cannot be extended because the volume does not contain a recognized file system."
Anyone have any ideas on how to fix an ReFS volume?
So far I am not too impressed with this "resilient" file system...
Yes, the same space of total space and free space is the reason why drive could not be restored correctly and we recieved the error message. For RAID 5 corruption, currently there is no fix to fix the issue except rebuilding. Thanks.
After electrical break at shutdown process 13Tb ReFS volume becomes unavailable with same symptoms as in Nick case. Volume filled at ~8Tb.
Volume based on Logical Disk hosted on LSI Hardware RAID controller. Level RAID-5. Data is very sensitive and should be restored.
My case was similar, after an electrical break, the ReFS formatted volume (mirrored on two hard drives) did not survived. What is funny, NTFS formatted volume located on the same hard drives survived (chkdisk corrected all errors)
After the incident, both hard drives are healthy (no reallocated, pending or unstable sectors).
I agree that the concept of self-healing file system is the future, but as we see, the ReFS is not ready yet. Also I could not find any data recovery option on the local market yet.

Dinner in Porto by the Douro river re-reading @TheInspiredEye.
Owe some words to Don & Olivier on how it helps me. Inspiring isn't enough!
- Rafael Garcia
As photographers, we really didn't like the fact that when we bought Photography Magazines, we never got anything out of them. We found them dull and uninspired, and they mostly featured the same people over and over. One providential day, we (Don Springer + Olivier Duong) met by chance saw the possibilities: To create the Photography Magazine that we wished we had. And shortly after, we did.
We were sick and tired of seeing the same photographers being featured, either the famous ones or the past masters. But what about those who are working today? Master photographers are a closed group that had their glory days, and the famous one are already famous, so why put the spotlight on those who already have enough?
So we decided to feature our heroes: Normal working photographers that do passionate work. We featured mothers, grandmothers, full time office workers, full time photographers, people we all can relate to and be inspired from. We love photography and we believe it borderlines tunnel Vision to always feature the 1% (make that 0.3% or something) that are famous at the detriment or sometimes more deserving photographers who work hard at their passion. These are our heroes.
We believe that what photographers do matters and Inspired Eye Magazine flows naturally from that belief. We don't care about credentials, wealth and accomplishments, our currency is in terms of passion. The world is full of shooters and we make it our task to bring to the spotlight the full spectrum of photographers. The Magazine is made up of photographers and enthusiasts like you who live out their passion and in turn help you live yours.
We created Inspired Eye to be accessible for anyone who is interested in Photography, whether you are a Pro, Amateur or Anything in between. It's for those who like photography in general, but the focus is on Street Photography, Documentary Photography and Travel Photography in particular. It's all about "real life" photography if you like.
Inspired Eye features many interviews from photographers of diverse backgrounds, levels and styles. The interviews are designed for you know more about the photographer, but also for you to do some soul searching.
Each issue has a section on design and composition "The Inspired Frame" written by a Graphic Designer turned Photographer. It's a favorite amongst readers.
Everything about Inspired Eye is designed to immerse yourself in photography: The colors, the layout, the typography, the interview style. Loose yourself while learning and improving your craft.
Behind Inspired Eye is no iron wall but living and breathing passionate photographers. We understand the drive for photography and feature our readers in the Magazine, from the readers gallery to interviews, it started with an email.
You probably own more than one device, once download on your devices, you can start reading on your Computer, continue to read on your Phone and finish everything on your Tablet. Take your magazine wherever you are to get inspired.
Inspired Eye has a traditional and interactive philosophy. It is hyper-linked and has embedded content. It varies issue from issue but some sections includes screencasts, audio, etc. For PDF readers that do not support interactivity, link are provided in Magazine.
Photography Magazines can be an appearance game. We cut the fluff and go directly to the heart of the matter: Photographers and their Photography. We feature real life photographers who work hard at their craft, we bring you a diverse spectrum to draw from.
Inspired Eye is heavy into Street Photography, in every issue expect many interviews but also "In the Street with Streetshooter" a entertaining recurring column on the story behind street shots of a reknown Street Photographer.
The Magazine features another recurring column on travel photography "The Inspired Traveler". Hints, tips, philosophy about traveling can be found in this section. A reader's favorite. Okay… all of the sections are favorites!

This is the fourth installment of the Open Enrollment mini series. Previous posts in the series were
- Open Enrollment, Part 1: Health Care
- Open Enrollment, Part 2: Life Insurance and AD&D
- Open Enrollment, Part 3: Disability Insurance
I cover flexible spending accounts in this post.
A Flexible Spending Account (FSA) allows you to set aside money before tax and pay for health care and dependent/child care using pre-tax dollars. It's a great deal because you get to use pre-tax dollars. Not only you don't have to pay federal and state income tax on your deposits to the flexible spending accounts, you also get to avoid Social Security and Medicare tax. The only catch is "use it or lose it" — you lose what you can't use. Because there are many ways to spend the flexible spending account money, and because the tax savings is substantial, you have to be way off in your estimate to lose money in an FSA. For 2007, you also have 2.5 months more time to use up your FSA. If you find yourself sitting on a big balance in your FSA next November, just reduce your contribution for 2008 and use up you existing balance by March 15 2008.
There are two kinds of FSAs, health care and dependent care, each has its own separate "bucket." Deposits into one type can be used only for that purpose. You can't use Health Care FSA to pay for child care and you can't use Dependent Care FSA to pay for health care. You can't transfer funds from one bucket to the other either.
1. Health Care Flexible Spending Account
Health Care FSA can be used to pay for health insurance deductibles, co-pays, medication or services not covered by the health plan, OTC drugs, even contact lens solutions and condoms. Just make a ballpark estimate of how much you will spend on this type of things. Be a little conservative if you want (who plans to be sick anyway?). I've been using around $1,000 for the two of us and we never lost any money.
2. Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account
This is typically used for day care expenses for your child. People usually have a very good handle on the need because they know how much day care costs. The maximum a family can contribute is $5,000 a year and people tell me that they use up that limit pretty easily.
This concludes the Open Enrollment series. I hope you find these useful. Any comments?

By Rudi WilliamsAmerican Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, April 4, 2000 At age 18, Linda A. Murakata was a single parent fighting the stigma of being on welfare. At the end of each month, she never had enough money for food or the bare necessities for herself and her infant daughter.
Desperately trying to rise above this bleak and demeaning existence in hopes of providing a better life for her child, Murakata turned to a source passed down from generation to generation beginning with her grandfather, a Buffalo Soldier. At age 22, she enlisted in the Air Force.
Poverty and rough times couldn't thwart Murakata's unwavering belief in herself and ironclad desire to succeed. She had the pride, fortitude and intelligence to escape her limited situation and garner a life of distinction and success. Having spent four years in dire poverty, she was proud and anxious to move off the welfare rolls and into a secure and protective environment.
Murakata is now a successful medical doctor and Navy commander, a potent symbol of strength, perseverance and endurance. She works at the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington.
Born in Manhattan on July 9, 1950, she's the oldest of three children of a Chinese father, Harry Wing Lew Seto, and an African American mother, Mary Hazel Gillespie Murakata, widow of a Japanese American, James Murakata. Her mother, a cook, had two daughters with Murakata.
Her father died when she was five and her mother moved to Long Branch, N.J., to be closer to Murakata's grandmother in Eatontown, N.J.
Providing for five young children wasn't easy for Murakata's mother, who earned a living taking in laundry and cleaning, and cooking in white folks' homes. She later worked as a cook in various restaurants, hotels and spas, Murakata said.
Working several jobs at one time, her mother had little time for nurturing, Murakata noted. There was never any talk about college or plans for the future because there was no money -- the immediate concerns were how to pay the rent and keep food on the table.
"We were basically on our own and raised ourselves," said Murakata, one of two siblings who graduated from college. With the help of school loans, her brother, Anthony Lew Seto, graduated from Trenton (N.J.) State College in 1973 with a degree in computer technology.
With no real direction in life, Murakata managed to finish high school, but not before running into trouble. "I was in my third month of my senior year at Long Branch Senior High School when my mom kicked me out of the house for skipping school," she said. "I was taken in by my grandmother and graduated from Monmouth Regional High School in Shrewsbury, N.J."
On Oct. 11, 1968, a few months after graduating from high school, she gave birth to her daughter, Kelly. The baby's father joined the Marine Corps and left the area immediately.
"He never gave the baby a cent for support or gifts of any kind," she recalled. "I was not allowed to put him on the birth certificate as the father, either."
Jobless with no husband, Murakata went on welfare before she left the hospital. Several desperate months later, she was so anxious to get off welfare that she rushed into a mismatched marriage to an older man.
"He presented himself as a successful businessman, but was actually a hotel night desk manager," she said. "After about a month of marriage, he was arrested for writing bad checks."
On her own again and back on welfare, Murakata was able to get a job as a secretary using the business skills she learned in high school. She worked for about three years at an intermediate care facility, the Witmer House Inc. in Long Branch.
Murakata said working for the black-owned facility was the starting point for her awakening into self-esteem, respect and pride as an African American woman. Her boss encouraged her to take a college accounting course, which she did.
"From this first taste of success, I discovered that I could no longer be content in a dead-end secretary job," she said. She devised a plan to move ahead in life.
Coming from a family with a long military history, she saw the armed forces as a vehicle to success. In August 1972, Murakata took her first step toward success by joining the Air Force under her married name, Linda Chisolm. She took basic training at Lackland Air Force Base, Texas, and ground radio operator schooling at Keesler Air Force Base, Miss. While working at Scott Air Force Base, Ill., she met and married a staff sergeant named Cardona and changed hers again.
When her four-year tour of duty was up in 1978, Murakata was faced with the option of re-enlisting or getting out of the Air Force.
"Since I almost had enough college credits to get an associate degree, I decided to get out and go to college full-time," said Murakata, who earned a bachelor's degree in biology in 1981 with a minor in chemistry.
Since the GI Bill was only enough to pay her tuition at Montclair University, N.J., Murakata covered living expenses by joining the Coast Guard Reserve in 1979 to supplement her husband's income. She was stationed at Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn, N.Y., and on Governors Island from 1979 to 1982.
It was during her junior year of college that Murakata considered applying to medical school. While she was working as a pharmaceutical company summer hire, her supervisor pushed her into applying to medical school.
"I never thought I was smart enough to become a doctor, but she kept telling me that I was as smart as any doctor she knew," she said.
After starting medical school in 1981, Murakata discovered she had no time for Coast Guard drills and left the service to dive into her studies. She also divorced her second husband.
The commander graduated in 1985 with a degree in medicine from the University of Medicine and Dentistry at the New Jersey Medical School in Newark, N.J. She returned home to Long Branch to do her residency at Monmouth Medical Center. She finished four years of anatomical and clinical pathology and a year of internal medicine in 1990.
Murakata discovered a liking for pathology during her internship.
"You get constant 'stroking' to your ego when you are faced with a difficult case and then are able to make a diagnosis," she said. "It's like being a detective and solving a mystery. I feel the same tingle of excitement and anticipation every time I open a new case."
Murakata said she never thought she would serve in the military again, "Then along came a Navy medical recruiter who promised me the 'world' -- a job at the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology in Washington -- and that was an offer that I could not turn down".
The doctor also said her life revolves around the number 3: she's the third of five children in her family; the third generation to serve in the military; she's worn three military uniforms -- Air Force, Coast Guard and Navy; and she's had three careers, as an executive secretary, Air Force radio operator, and now medical doctor.
In addition, she currently holds three staff positions in three different departments at the Institute of Pathology - - staff pathologist in the Department of Hepatic and Gastrointestinal Pathology, staff pathologist and officer in charge of the POW registry in the Department of Environmental and Toxicological Pathology, and an associate editor for institute's Center for Scientific Publications.
In 1992, Murakata established the Afrikasian Scholars Foundation Inc. and paid out of pocket for scholarships to teen minority mothers and fathers who enrolled in a college or other higher education after graduating from high school. She awarded as many as seven scholarships in a single year, and after receiving non-profit status, was able to solicit donations through the 1995 Combined Federal Campaign.
The name "Afrikasian" is derived from Murakata's African American and Asian heritage. In addition to the scholarships, Murakata served as a mentor and role model to the young parents. The foundation soon created a mountain of paperwork that Murakata could no longer handle -- she said the organization still exists, but has been dormant several years.
Though she sometimes longs for the lifestyles of her civilian counterparts, Murakata said she thrives at the institute and can't be lured away from the military.
"I enjoy being in the military again and really love my job," she said. "I plan on staying in and hope to retire when I'm an admiral -- just kidding."
Her daughter, Kelly, is a histotechnologist at Washington Adventist Hospital in Takoma Park, Md., and is graduating this May from Montgomery College in Silver Spring, Md., with a degree in nursing. She and her husband, Army Staff Sgt. Damian Randolph, are stationed at Fort Meade, Md. The couple and their daughter, Corinne Anastassia, 12, are scheduled for a three-year assignment at Misawa Air Base, Japan, starting the end of May.

THE national soccer team Taifa Stars has landed an international friendly match against Ethiopia away in Addis Ababa next Friday. A statement released by the Tanzania Football Federation (TFF) Information Officer, Boniface Wambura, said that the match will be played at the National Stadium in Addis Ababa.
Taifa Stars coach, Kim Poulsen has summoned 22 players in the squad which will enter into a residential training camp tomorrow in preparation for the friendly. The friendly is part of the Taifa Stars trial games ahead of the World Cup qualifier match against Morocco in March 22.
But for Ethiopia, the game is their final trial before heading for the African Cup of Nations (AFCON) finals set to start in South Africa on January 19.Ethiopia is in same group with the AFCON defending Champions, Zambia who played Taifa Stars last month and lost 0-1 to the local side.
In his squad, Kim has retained DR Congo based stars Mbwana Samatta and Thomas Ulimwengu.The two strikers were part of the team that was called by Kim for last month's friendly match against African Champions, Zambia 'Chipolopolo,' but went AWOL. They later reported late in the camp and were left out of the match because they were nursing injuries. Stars went ahead to win 1-0 at the National Stadium in Dar es Salaam.
The duo also missed out of the Mainland's Kilimanjaro Stars team campaign in the CECAFA Senior Challenge Cup in Kampala from November 24 to December 8, last year because they were denied permission by their Congolese club TP Mazembe. During the match against Zambia several soccer fans failed to hold their anger and insulted the two players, accusing them of putting their interest ahead of national team.
However, both, the Tanzania Football Federation (TFF) and Kim quelled the situation and indicated that the striking duo will remain part of team for a long period despite the fact that the Danish coach has always insisted that he prefer players who feel proud to play for the national team.
Taifa Stars need to win their next encounter against Morocco for them to remain in contention for a place in the World cup to be staged in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil next year. Taifa Stars lost 2-0 away to Cote d'Ivoire in their opening Group C match mid last year but managed to bounce back with a 2-1 win over Gambia at the National Stadium in Dar es Salaam to keep qualification hopes alive.
Momodou Ceesay gave Gambia the lead in the first half, but the hosts bounced back in the second half as goals from defenders Shomari Kapombe and Erasto Nyoni earned Poulsen his first win in charge of the Stars.Tanzania are second in the group on three points, while Gambia are at the bottom of the group. Ivory Coast are on top of the group with four points and Morocco are on third with two points. Ivory Coast and Morocco played out a 2-2 draw.
Stars players are Juma Kaseja (Simba), Aishi Manula, Mwadini Ally, Aggrey Morris (Azam), Amir Maftah (Simba), Erasto Nyoni (Azam), Issa Rashid (Mtibwa Sugar), Kelvin Yondani (Yanga), Nadir Haroub (Yanga), Shomari Kapombe (Simba), Salum Abubakar (Azam) and Athuman Idd (Yanga).
Others are Amri Kiemba (Simba), Khamis Mcha (Azam), Frank Domayo (Yanga), Mwinyi Kazimoto (Simba), Shabani Nditi (Mtibwa Sugar), John Bocco (Azam), Mrisho Ngasa (Simba), Simon Msuva (Yanga), Mbwana Samatta and Thomas Ulimwengu (TP Mazembe - DR Congo).

STATISTICS released by the Ministry of Home Affairs have revealed that reported cases related to gender cruelty have substantially increased, the Chairperson of the Organizing Committee of the 16-day campaign against gender cruelty, Ms Honoratha Nasuwa has said.
She said there were 3,997, 4,278 and 8,874 reported rape cases during 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively while sodomy cases were 420, 512 and 567 over the same period, adding that there were a total of 18,648 cases of sexual offences for the three years under review.
Ms Nasuwa revealed that there was a significant rise in sexual offences by 10.66 %, compared to other offences, adding that in 2005 and 2006, the rise was 6.40 % and 6.96 % respectively.
"It is the duty of the entire members of our society to cooperate with the government organs to ensure that the trend is reversed so as to minimize occurrence of such offences which not only degrade humanity status but also affects the human body," she said.
She has expressed misgivings that despite stiff sentences of life imprisonment imposed on rape convicts, rape offences have become the order of the day, adding that harassment of women by their spouses have continued with impunity.
However, Ms Nasuwa noted that gender cruelty campaign has recorded success stories in that some members of the society are now at liberty to report gender harassment to relevant authorities regardless of threats issued against them by perpetrators of gender cruelty.

(NEW YORK) -- Crumbs has turned off its ovens and closed up shop.
The cupcake company abruptly closed all of its retail stores on Monday and ceased operations of online orders.
"Regrettably Crumbs has been forced to cease operations and is immediately attending to the dislocation of its devoted employees while it evaluates its limited remaining options," the company said in a statement to ABC News Tuesday.
Employees were told about the news on Monday.
Crumbs, which has 65 stores operating in 12 states and Washington, D.C., says it is "evaluating" its options. One of those options is bankruptcy.
The company has suffered a big decline in sales over the past few years and recently failed to obtain additional financing.

PSU official 'very confident' about outdoor NHL game at Beaver Stadium
Penguins/NHL Videos
The top hockey official at Penn State said he is "very confident" an outdoor NHL game will take place at 107,000-seat Beaver Stadium.
"It's not as imminent, I think, as people out there would like to think," Penn State associate athletic director Joe Battista said, "but it's definitely being talked about."
Battista said NHL teams also could host future training camps or rookie camps at Pegula Ice Arena, which formally opens Oct. 11. The facility was funded through $102 million in donations from Penn State alum and Buffalo Sabres owner Terry Pegula and his wife, Kim.
As the Tribune-Review reported last week, a potential Beaver Stadium game won't necessarily be the previously anticipated matchup of the Penguins and Flyers.
"Maybe there will be a Sabres game here," Battista said. "There are 102 million reasons why."

Remarks of President Barack Obama Space Exploration in the 21st Century
Thursday, April 15, 2010 Kennedy Space Center
As Prepared for Delivery --
I want to thank Senator Bill Nelson and NASA Administrator Charlie Bolden for their leadership. And I want to recognize Doctor Buzz Aldrin as well. Four decades ago, Buzz became a legend. But in the four decades since he has also been one of America's leading visionaries and authorities on human space flight.
Few people - present company excluded - can claim the expertise of Buzz, Bill, and Charlie when it comes to space exploration. And few people are as singularly unimpressed by Air Force One. Sure, it's comfortable. But it can't even reach low Earth orbit. That is in striking contrast to the Falcon 9 rocket we just saw on the launch pad, which will be tested for the first time in the coming weeks.

Complaint Process for Mediators
The Board's mediation process is voluntary (unless the application relates to a care home transfer). This means that a party can refuse to participate in mediation at the time it is offered, or where mediation does occur, a party can stop the mediation at any time and return to the regular hearing stream.
As a result, it is anticipated that where a party is of the belief that the mediation process does not serve their needs, they will terminate the mediation immediately. Regardless of whether or not the mediation is terminated, clients occasionally express concerns about the conduct of a mediator or their mediation session.
The purpose of this procedure is to set out a process by which complaints about a mediator, or the way in which a mediation session was handled, will be received, reviewed and resolved.
Form of the Complaint
All complaints should be made in writing. The complaint should identify the application and the mediator and it should clearly describe the concern that the client has. It should also include the client's name, address and telephone number.
If the complaint contains insufficient information, the Regional Manager should contact the client to obtain the additional information required to deal with and respond to the concern. Where the client fails to identify themselves or where they fail to provide additional information upon request, the manager may decide to disregard the complaint.
In most cases, oral complaints will not be accepted. However, if a client insists on relaying a complaint orally, they should be referred to the appropriate Regional Manager. The Regional Manager will then inquire as to why the client is unwilling or unable to submit their concern in writing and decide whether or not to pursue the complaint.
Where an oral complaint is accepted, the Regional Manager should ensure that they fully understand the concern and that they record all relevant information. Where a Regional Manager refuses to accept an oral complaint, the client should be advised that the complaint must be in writing before any action will be taken to look into it.
Receiving the Complaint
All complaints relating to the conduct of a mediator should be directed to the Regional Manager to whom the mediator reports. If the concern is sent to the wrong Regional Manager, or to another person within the Board, it should be forwarded to the appropriate Regional Manager immediately.
In most cases the Regional Manager to whom the mediator reports will deal with the complaint (especially if the complaint is about the behaviour or conduct of the mediator). However where a mediator mediates in more than one region, both the Regional Manager to whom the mediator reports and the Regional Manager responsible for the file should inform each other of the complaint.
Acknowledging Receipt
The Regional Manager is responsible for acknowledging receipt of the complaint. This can be done orally at the time of the conversation, or in writing. Written acknowledgement is not necessary where a response will be forthcoming within a few days of the receipt of the concern (for example, where no investigation is necessary - this is addressed further below).
Determining Whether or Not to Proceed
The Regional Manager is responsible for conducting any investigation and implementing any action that should occur as a result of the complaint.
There are some circumstances in which the Regional Manager may decide not to conduct an investigation. This would be appropriate where the concern relates to a standard policy or procedure of the Board, where sufficient information or detail cannot be obtained from the complainant, or where the concern does not appear to be initiated in good faith.
If it is decided that an investigation will not be conducted, the person who raised the concern should be advised. It is preferable that this communication be in writing.
Disclosure to the Mediator
Where the Regional Manager does not conduct an investigation to look into the client's concern for any of the reasons stated above, the mediator does not need to be formally advised of the receipt of the complaint. However it is strongly recommended that the issues (without identifying the specific mediator or file) be communicated to all mediators in the office so that the mediators are familiar with client concerns. Managers may also identify the issues (again without identifying the specific mediator or file) to other Regional Managers where appropriate so they can decide whether mediators in their offices should also be aware of incoming concerns. For example, a manager may tell their mediators that three concerns have been received in two different offices from clients who were unaware that the Board does not keep copies of mediated agreements on file. This will ensure that mediators are aware of the issues and can take steps to ensure that this type of information is clearly communicated in future mediation sessions.
Where the Regional Manager does conduct an investigation, the mediator will always be informed of the receipt and content of the complaint and be given an opportunity to respond.
The Investigation
An investigation refers to any investigation into a complaint about a mediator's conduct or a mediation session. The mediator will be given an opportunity to provide an oral or written response to the Regional Manager to address the allegations set out in the complaint. Where the information provided from the complainant and the mediator's response are sufficient, the investigation can be concluded.
If the Regional Manager feels that additional information would be beneficial, they may take any other investigatory steps that are appropriate under the circumstances to obtain such information. This could include interviewing other people who may have witnessed the event, such as other parties or staff. Where witnesses are canvassed, the manager should ask them to provide a written or oral account of the incident without identifying that a formal complaint has been received. Other investigatory steps could include reviewing additional documentation, liaising with legal or head office staff, and any other steps as appropriate.
The Regional Manager shall not disclose any information to other mediators that would identify the mediator about whom the complaint has been made or the file to which a concern relates. However they may ask other mediators how they would handle certain situations in the context of mediation without disclosing that a complaint has been filed.
The Regional Manager may terminate an investigation at any stage if:
After a complaint has been received, and if necessary, any investigation has been conducted, the Regional Manager will make all findings in relation to the concern and determine whether any subsequent action should be taken.
The mediator will be informed of the Regional Manager's findings as well as any action that will result. The Regional Manager will also inform the client in writing that the matter has been concluded and that appropriate measures, if necessary, have been taken. The letter to the client will not, however, set out any remedy or action that has or will be taken with respect to the mediator.

With the Republican presidential nomination contest in high gear, Marylanders might be forgiven for smiling. The word "snob" has returned with full force to presidential politics after a four-decade hiatus. Former Sen. Rick Santorum (Penn State University '80, University of Pittsburgh '81, Dickinson School of Law '86), in an old-fashioned beat-down on higher education, recently informed us that President Barack Obama is "a snob" for wanting Americans to go to college, where they would be indoctrinated by "some liberal college professor."
Trying to win swing votes in the 1970 midterm elections, Maryland's own Vice President Spiro Agnew denounced a prevailing liberal "spirit of national masochism … encouraged by an effete core of impudent snobs who characterize themselves as intellectuals." In a Des Moines, Iowa, speech, Agnew proclaimed, "I do not accept the proposition that every American boy and girl should go to a four-year college."
