But actress Anjelica Huston showed no qualms as she lounged around in a black bikini on a holiday with her friends and family in the Caribbean.

The make-up free star looked in good spirits as she lapped up the sun before taking a ride in a speedboat yesterday.

• Sharon Stone and Harrison Ford lend their support to Anjelica Huston at her husband's funeral

And after suffering the loss of her husband a month ago, it's no wonder Anjelica, who starred as Morticia Addams in the Addams Family, was looking to spend some time out to relax.

Robert Graham died on December 27 at the age of 70 after being in ill health for sometime.

The Addams family star had a splash in the sea with her companion

The famous sculptor, whose massive bronze sculpture works mark civic monuments across America, married Anjelica in 1992 and the couple lived together in California.

His funeral was attended by a flock of Hollywood A-listers, including Sharon Stone, Harrison Ford and Jack Nicholson, who Academy Award-winning Anjelica was romantically involved with from 1973 until 1989.

During her day out on the beach yesterday, Anjelica made time for a splash in the sea between bouts of lounging around on the beach.

She later covered up and slipped into a tie-dye dress before embarking upon a dingy boat to enjoy a ride across the waters.

As well as being in mourning, the star has also found time recently to press ahead with her campaigning duties as supporter of the charity PETA (People for th Ethical Treatment of Animals).

Anjelica penned an open letter to director Stephen Summers asking him to use CG animals instead of live apes in his upcoming Tarzan reboot, currently in development at Warner Bros.

She says the animals are emotionally and physically abused during their careers, then shipped off to roadside zoos when they become too old to handle.

'Critics lauded King Kong in particular for the emotional depth that the giant ape displayed - without any real apes suffering in the process,' she wrote.

'Can I please hear that you similarly plan to use only creative alternatives to great apes in Tarzan?'

Walimu Kenya warudi darasani

Maelfu ya walimu nchini Kenya wamerudi kazini baada ya mgomo wao uliodumu kwa zaidi ya wiki moja kuvunjwa kufuatia makubaliano na serikali.

Kulingana na Katibu Mkuu wa chama cha walimu, KNUT, Lawrence Majali chama hicho kimekubali kufanya mkataba mpya na serikali kuhusu malipo ya nyongeza ya walimu.

Mgomo huo ulikuwa umeitishwa baada ya serikali kusema haingeweza kuafikiana na matakwa ya walimu ya kutaka nyongeza kubwa ya mishahara kwa mpigo.

Wizara ya Elimu inatakiwa kulipa jumla ya dola milioni 96 kama nyongeza kwa walimu zaidi ya laki mbili.

Katibu Mkuu Majali amesema sasa walimu watalipwa kwa awamu mbili.

Kuanzia mwezi Julai mwaka huu watalipwa asilimia arobaini na masalia kulipwa Julai mwaka ujao.

Simba waitafuna 3-1 Prisons ya Mbeya

WEKUNDU wa Msimbazi, Simba Sports Club, jana walifanikiwa kukamata nafasi ya pili katika msimamo wa Ligi Kuu ya Bara kwa kufikisha pointi 23, baada ya kuwamenya maafande wa Prisons ya Mbeya kwa mabao 3-1.

Matokeo ya mechi hiyo iliyopigwa kwenye Uwanja wa Taifa Dar es Salaam yameiwezesha Simba kufikisha idadi hiyo ya pointi kama ilivyo kwa Kagera Sugar.

Hata hivyo, Simba ni ya pili kutokana na mabao mengi ya kufunga. Kagera Sugar imefikisha pointi 23 huku ikifunga mabao 14 wakati Simba imezifumania nyavu mara 19.

Kwa matokeo hayo, Simba imezipiga kumbo Kagera Sugar iliyokuwa ikikamata nafasi ya pili kabla ya mechi ya jana, na Mtibwa Sugar iliyokuwa nafasi ya tatu.

Katika mechi hiyo ya jana, Simba walio chini ya Kocha Mzambia, Patrick Phiri na wakionekana kukamia, walicheza soka ya nguvu kuanzia mwanzo hadi mwisho wa mechi hiyo.

Licha ya Prisons - wawakilishi wa Tanzania Bara katika michuano ya Kombe la Shirikisho la Soka Afrika (CAF) - kuonyesha uhai katika kipindi cha kwanza, katika kipindi cha pili, walionekana kuelemewa na zigo la kandanda safi ya Wekundu hao wa Msimbazi.

Simba ndiyo waliokuwa wa kwanza kupata bao katika dakika ya pili ya mchezo, likifungwa kiufundi na mchezaji machachari, Adam Kingwande, baada ya kupokea krosi iliyomiminwa na Said Nassor ‘Cholo’. Kingwande alisukuma kiki ya kimo cha ng’ombe mzee iliyokwenda wavuni dairekti huku ikimuacha kipa wa Maafande hao akigaagaa chini.

Bao hilo lilionekana kuwaamsha maafande wa Prisons walioanza kupanga mashambulizi. Walifanikiwa kusawazisha bao katika dakika ya 27 likifungwa na Yona Ndabila kutokana na krosi ya Ramadhani Katamba.

Katika dakika ya 31 Simba walipata bao pili kwa mkwaju wa penalti iliyotolewa na mwamuzi, Ahmad Kikumbo, wa Dodoma baada ya Jabir Aziz kuangushwa ndani ya maguu 12.

Mussa Hassan Mgosi hakufanya makosa - akaukwamisha mpira wavuni akimwacha kipa Nelson Kimath akichupa bila mafaniko, alipodanganyika kufuata ngoma upande sio. Hadi mapumziko Simba walikuwa mbele kwa mabao 2-1.

Simba walikianza kipindi cha pili cha mchezo wa kasi, hivyo kuwachukua dakika nne tu kupiga bao la tatu, safari hii likifungwa na Emeh Izechukwu.

Ni bao lililotokana na mpira wa kurushwa na Cholo na kutua kichwani kwa Izechukwu, hata hivyo kipa akapangua na kumfikia Izechukwu ambaye alifunga kwa kichwa.

Licha ya maafande wa Prisons kupigana vilivyo kusawazisha mabao hayo, lakini hadi filimbi ya mwisho, Simba walikuwa kidedea kwa mabao 3-1.

Kocha wa Prisons, James Nestory, alisema kipa wake kutokuwa makini kumeigharimu timu, kwani wachezaji wa ndani walicheza vizuri.

Naye Patrick Phiri alisema anashukuru kushinda mechi ya jana kwani ilikuwa ngumu na kwamba nia yake ni kumaliza ikiwa nafasi ya pili.

Aidha, licha ya kukamata nafasi ya pili Simba haina ubavu wa kutwaa ubingwa kwani hata ikishinda mechi zote nane zilizosalia, inaweza kufikisha pointi 47. Wakati Simba wakiishia hapo, mtani wake, Yanga, naye kama atashinda zote, anaweza kufikisha pointi 63.

Aidha, kama Kagera Sugar itashinda mechi zake zote itafikisha pointi 47 huku Mtibwa Sugar ikiwa na ubavu wa kufikisha pointi 45. Kwa vile ubavu wa Simba na Kagera Sugar ni kufikisha pointi 47, hivyo Yanga imebakisha pointi 9 tu kutwaa ubingwa.

Kama itashinda mechi hizo tatu dhidi ya Moro United, Polisi Moro na Toto Africa Yanga itakuwa imetwaa ubingwa huku ikiwa imesaliwa na mechi tano mkononi, kama ilivyowahi kufanya chini ya makocha Sunday Kayuni na Tito Mwaluvanda (marehemu).

Le cheek, c'est chic: Paris Fashion Week uncovered

Uncovered: Turkish designer Cengiz Abazoglu's provocative new design

Posing alluringly in a barely-there purple gown, this model looks as if she's auditioning for the Cheeky Girls.

But even the usually daring pop duo may have second thoughts about wearing this particular creation.

Despite being floor-length, the lilac tunic gives a daring glimpse of the wearer's derriere.

The provocative new design was unveiled by up-and-coming Turkish designer Cengiz Abazoglu during Paris Fashion Week.

Embellished with silver embroidery and held up by detached silver cuffs, it was the most striking piece of a strong capsule collection.

Abazoglu also showed pink, white, electric-blue and mint-green dresses as part of the his Haute Couture 2009 spring/summer collection.

None of his extrovert designs could be described as modest.

As well as the bottom-flashing gown, there were dresses slashed to the waist, and tunics which skimmed the thighs.

The designer also seems to have a particular fascination with sheer fabrics which offered tantalising glimpses of parts of the body.

His models, however, proved more than up to the challenge, flaunting their exposed curves and posing for photographs backstage in the plush reception rooms of the prestigious George V Hotel in Paris on Monday.

Little-known Abazoglu can already count Britney Spears and Paris Hilton to vaunt his products, after they bought handbags from his previous collection, CA Deluxe Pret-a-Porter.

The designer, who works mainly in Russia, has stores in Ankara, Istanbul, Moscow, Tokyo, LA and New York.

Meanwhile, French designer Dominique Sirop revealed a sophisticated number.

The black and white see-through dress gave the model a more modest look, while being equally seductive.

Sirop defines himself as a 'minimalist dandy'. He says the ideal aesthetic is to join sophistication with simplicity.

Daring: Abazoglu's other creations included these two skimpy numbers

He has a collection of high-profile fashion clients.

His fashion collections can be seen every season at six major fashion weeks, Milan, Paris, London, Tokyo, Los Angeles and New York.

His designs are often featured in fashion magazines such as Vogue and Madame Figaro.

The pair joined other top names such as Chanel, Dior, Givenchy and Louis Vuitton for Paris Fashion Week.

Licha ya Yanga kutawala mchezo huo, kocha wao Mserbia Dusan Kondic aliwalalamikia waamuzi na kusema kuwa wanachangia kwa kiasi kikubwa alisema kuwa waamuzi wamekuwa wakichangia sana kurudisha nyuma soka la bongo kwa kutotoa maamuzi sahihi na badala yake kupendelea.

Naye kocha wa Mtibwa Sugar Salum Mayanja alisema kuwa mchezo ulikuwa mgumu kwao kama alivyotegemea, lakini waliangushwa na viungo na washambuliaji wake kwa kutokuwa makini, hivyo atawanoa zaidi.

Timu zilikuwa Yanga:Obren Curkovic, Shadrack Nsajigwa, Nurdin Bakari, Nadir Haroub `Canavaro`, Wisdom Ndlovu, Godfrey Bony, Mrisho Ngassa, Athuman Idd Chuji/Mike Baraza )dk.47), Boniface Ambani/Amir Maftaha (dk. 83), Ben Mwalala/Abdi Kassim (dk.57) na Shamte Ally.

Mwandishi Wetu anaripoti kuwa; timu ya Simba leo inashuka kwenye uwanja huo wa taifa kukwaruzana na Prisons ya Mbeya katika mchezo mwingine wa Ligi Kuu Tanzania Bara.

Mechi hiyo ambayo itakuwa ni ya tatu kwa kocha mpya wa Simba, Patrick Phiri tangu arejee tena Msimbazi, inatarajiwa kuwa na ushindani kutokana na historia ya timu hizo zinapokutana katika mechi za ligi.

Ushindi kwa Simba ambayo iko katika nafasi ya nne kwenye msimamo wa ligi ni muhimu kutokana na kutaka kurejesha matumaini ya kushiriki katika mashindano ya kimataifa mwakani na itakuwa imeweza kupanda hadi katika nafasi ya pili.

The cheeky boys: Beckham's team-mates touch his bottom for good luck... as he's dubbed AC Milan's 'lucky talisman'

David Beckham is used to getting a lot of attention both on and off the pitch.

Just maybe not quite this friendly.

The 33-year-old football ace was seen getting groped by his AC Milan team-mates, Andrea Pirlo and Clarance Seedorf during the Serie A stars game against Bologna at the Renato Dall'Ara stadium.

But it wasn't just a case of cheeky behaviour, the pair were congratulating midfielder Beckham - and also touching him for luck after he scored his first goal for the club he is on loan to for three months.

An AC Milan insider said: 'Everyone knows Beckham has a golden touch and he has proved that since he arrived.

'Italy is a superstitious country and people often touch things for luck - the players are doing the same with Beckham and touching his bottom because he is seen as a lucky mascot.'

Pictures of the players touching the bottom of Beckham were published in several Italian newspapers, all with the headline: 'Now he is a lucky talisman.'

Since the former Manchester United player arrived in Milan, the side has not lost a match both in the Italian league, nor in a friendly.

Top selling Italian sports daily Gazzetta Dello Sport said: 'He even brings luck - since he arrived not one defeat.'

They also noted how even when he was in the stand watching Udinese they did not lose.

CUF wagomea matokeo ya ubunge Mbeya Vijijini

WAKATI Tume ya Uchaguzi mdogo wa Jimbo la Mbeya Vijijini ikimtangaza mgombea ubunge wa Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM), Mchungaji Luckson Mwanjali kuwa mshindi, Chama cha Wananchi (CUF), kimeyakataa matokeo hayo.

Akizungumza na waandishi wa habari mara baada ya matokeo ya awali kutangazwa, Mwenyekiti wa CUF, Taifa, Profesa Ibrahim Lipumba alisema chama chake hakiyatambui matokeo hayo kutokana na kuwepo kwa kasoro nyingi kuanzia wakati wa kampeni na siku ya upigaji kura.

Alisema matatizo ya awali ni pamoja na kampeni za CUF kuingiliwa na viongozi wa kampeni na kutoa mfano kuwa, katika kata ya Ikukwa baada ya chama hicho kufanya mkutano wao, CCM walitumia watu hao hao waliokuwa katika mkutano huo, jambo ambalo ni kinyume na utaratibu wa kampeni za uchaguzi.

"Kwa mfano katika kijiji cha Ikukwa ilikuwa ni siku ya chama chetu kufanya mkutano hapo na CCM ikawa na ratiba katika eneo hilo. Lakini cha kushangaza tulipomaliza mkutano wetu na wao wakaingia na kufanya mkutano katika eneo hilo hilo ambalo sisi tulikuwa tumewakusanya watu," alilalamika Lipumba.

Alisema kuwa matatizo mengine ni pamoja na kupigwa kwa mwanachama wao na wafuasi wa CCM, kushushiwa bendera pamoja na kuchana picha ya mgombea wao.

Hata hivyo, alisema CCM waliomba msamaha baada ya suala hilo kufikishwa Tume ya Uchaguzi na kuzikutanisha pande zote mbili.

Profesa Ibrahim alisema kuwa, tatizo kubwa ambalo ndilo lililochangia watu wachache kutojitokeza kupiga kura ni watendaji wa vijiji na kata kuzuia shahada za wapigakura kwa kisingizio cha kuwapa vocha za mbolea ya ruzuku.

"Tatizo kubwa ambalo limechangia kwa kiasi kikubwa wananchi kutopata haki ya kupiga kura, ni watendaji wa baadhi ya vijiji waliohodhi shahada za kupigia kura za wananchi kwa madai kuwa watapata vocha ya mbolea ya ruzuku," alisema na kuongeza:

"Mwananchi wa Kijiji cha Msituni, Kata ya Iwindi, Ezekieli John alituambia kwamba hawezi kupiga kura kwa sababu shahada yake ilichukuliwa na balozi wa nyumba kumi na taarifa hiyo tumeipeleka polisi," alilalamika Profesa Lipumba.

Mwenyekiti huyo alibainisha matatizo yaliyojitokeza siku ya kupiga kura kuwa ni pamoja na vituo vingi kutokuwa na majina ya wapigakura na kwamba, hata sehemu ambayo yalibandikwa hayakuwa sahihi.

Aliongeza kuwa, katika baadhi ya vijijini vya kata za Ilembo na Santilya vituo vilikuwa na umbali wa kilomita saba hadi kumi kutoka maeneo wanayoishi wananchi, hivyo kusababisha baadhi yao kushindwa kupiga kura.

"Siku ya kupiga kura tulifanikiwa kuwakamata vijana wakiwa na masanduku ya kupigia kura, hivyo hayo yote ni mlolongo wa kasoro ambazo zimejitokeza na kutufanya sisi tusiyakubali matokeo yaliyotangazwa na Tume ya Uchaguzi," alisema.

Alisema kuwa kwa sasa wanaandaa utaratibu wa kuwasiliana na wanasheria wa chama chao ili kupata ushauri wa hatua za kuchukuliwa.

Alilalamika kuwa, kuna tatizo kubwa la kiutendaji ndani ya tume, kwani watendaji wake waandamizi wako Dar es Salaam badala ya kuwepo maeneo yote ya wapigakura ili kubaini matatizo hayo mapema.

"Unajua, tume haiwezi kumwadhibu mkurugenzi wa wilaya ambaye ndiye msimamizi wa uchaguzi kwa kuwa yeye si mwajiriwa wa tume, bali ni mkubwa wake wa kisiasa ambaye ni mkuu wa Wilaya ambaye ana uwezo kumshawishi atakavyo, ikiwamo kuhakikisha CCM inapata ushindi," alisema.

Profesa Lipumba alisema kuwa, kuna umuhimu mkubwa wa kuwepo kwa tume huru ambayo itaweza kufanya kazi kwa kuhakikisha inafika maeneo ya vijijini ikiwa ni pamoja na kutoa elimu ya uraia ili wananchi wote wapate haki ya kupiga kura.

Footballers Are Idiots: Mikel Charged With Drink-Driving

The 21-year-old Nigerian was pulled over near Chelsea’s training ground in Cobham on Saturday morning at 5:30 AM after a policeman noticed him driving erratically in his Range Rover. Less than 12 hours later, Chelsea were taking to the pitch to play Ipswich in the FA Cup fourth round. Mikel was officially charged and will be due in court on April 3rd to face trial.

A Chelsea spokesman stated, "We are aware [Mikel] was arrested and charged. We want to establish the facts before we comment.”

It’s been rumored that Mikel knew he would not be involved in the match against Ipswich, but that is still no excuse for his behavior.

Lubanga akanusha mashtaka

Thomas Lubanga- amekanusha mashtaka ya kuandikisha watoto jeshini

Kiongozi wa zamani wa kundi la wapiganaji katika Jamhuri ya Kidemokrasia ya Kongo Thomas Lubanga amekanusha mashtaka ya kuwatumikisha watoto jeshini, mbele ya mahakama ya kimataifa ya uhalifu wa kivita (ICC).

Anakabiliwa na mashtaka sita ya kuwaandikisha na kuwatumia mamia ya watoto wa umri wa chini ya miaka 15 kupigana kwenye vita vya Congo vya miaka mitano , vilivyomalizika mwaka 2003.

Akifungua utaratibu wa kusoma mashtaka, kiongozi wa mashtaka wa mahakama hiyo Luis Moreno-Ocampo alisema Bwana Lubanga aliwatumia watoto ''kuuwa, kulemaza na kubaka.''

Hii ni kesi ya kwanza kusikilizwa mbele ya mahakama hiyo iliyoko The Hague.

Kesi hiyo imerejeshwa baada ya kucheleweshwa kwa muda wa miezi saba, huku majaji na viongozi wa mashtaka wakipinga ushahidi uliotolewa kwa siri.

Viongozi wa mashtaka wanasema watoto waliandikishwa kama askari , kuwauwa watu wa kabila lingine na pia kumlinda bwana Lubanga.

Bwana Moreno- Ocampo alisema wana ushahidi kwamba kati ya Tarehe 1 Septemba 2002 na tarehe 13 Agosti mwaka 2003 bwana Lubanga aliwaandikisha watoto wa chini ya miaka 15 kuwa wanajeshi.

Amesema baadhi ya watoto hao mpaka leo wameathirika kutokana na yale waliyoyaona na kuyafanya, na kwamba wengine sasa wanatumia dawa za kulevya na kujiingiza katika ukahaba ili kujikimu.

Viongozi wa mashtaka wanakusudia kuleta mashahidi 34 , miongoni mwao watoto waliotumikishwa jeshini na wapiganaji waliojisalimisha. Kesi hii inatarajiwa kuchukua muda wa miezi kadhaa.

Sehemu ya ushahidi ni kanda ya Video inayodaiwa kumwonyesha Bwana Lubanga akiwa katika kambi za kutoa mafunzo ya kijeshi akiandamana na wanajeshi wanaoonekana wazi kuwa watoto wa chini ya umri wa miaka 15.

Bwana Lubanga anasisitiza kuwa alikuwa anajaribu kuleta amani katika eneo la Ituri - mashariki mwa Congo, ambako kumekuwa na mzozano wa miaka mingi baina ya makundi mbali mbali yanayotaka kudhibiti madini mengi yanayopatikana huko.

Lubanga alikuwa kiongozi wa kundi la Union of Congolese Patriots (UPC) na kitengo cha kijeshi cha kundi hilo, wakati ambapo uhalifu huo unadaiwa ulifanyika kati ya mwaka 2002-2003 , na bado ana wafuasi kutoka jamii ya waHema inayopatikana Ituri.

Zaidi ya watoto 30,000 waliandikishwa katika mapigano hayo, ambapo watu 60,000 walipoteza maisha.

Mwandishi wa BBC Kesi hiyo ni onyo kubwa kwa viongozi wa waasi na makamanda wa kijeshi kote duniani ambao mara kwa mara wameweza kufanya uhalifu wakiwa vitani bila kujali .

Miss World finalist who had hands and feet amputated after being hit by infection dies

Tragic: Brazilian bikini model Mariana Bridi had her hands and feet amputated after being struck down with an infection

A two-time Miss World finalist whose feet and hands were amputated after contracting a drug-resistant infection has died.

Brazilian model Mariana Bridi, 20, died early on Saturday morning from complications related to a generalised infection caused by the bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the Espirito Santo State Health Secretariat said in a statement. The bacteria is known to be resistant to multiple kinds of antibiotics.

Health officials on Friday said Bridi was not breathing on her own and was undergoing hemodialysis at a hospital in the city of Serra.

The beauty had undergone emergency surgery this week after she fell ill with a virus that spread to her blood.

Her devastated boyfriend Thiago Simoes said at the time: 'We are all absolutely distraught and are just praying now that she can pull through.

'She fell ill on December 30 and we took her to hospital where she was misdiagnosed with a kidney stone.

'They gave her some medicine and sent her home. But two days later she started getting worse.

'We took her back to hospital and they said she had a very serious infection.

'She got more and more sick, and had no blood circulation to her limbs.

'First she lost her feet, then on Tuesday she lost both her hands.

'But she is a very strong person and we just want her to survive.'

Tragic: Brazilian model Mariana Bridi represented her country in international contests before she was struck down by a drug-resistant infection

Doctors took the heartbreaking decision to amputate her feet when the poison spread to her blood and cut off her circulation.

Then they decided they would have to remove her hands as well.

But after that surgery she suffered an internal haemorrhage and had another emergency operation on Wednesday afternoon.

Miss Bridi was a finalist in the search for Brazil's Miss World contestant in 2006 and 2007.

In 2007 she flew to China to represent her country in the Miss Bikini international competition.

She won a prize there for the most beautiful body, and came sixth out of 50 candidates.

International beauty: Miss Bridi fell ill just three weeks ago

Henrique Fontes, executive director of Miss World Brazil, said Miss Bridi badly needs a transfusion of the uncommon blood type O negative.

He said: 'She has always been a great fighter and has a history of perseverance.

'The first time she took part in a beauty contest, in 2006, she travelled for 20 hours on a bus in very plain clothes, and without any preparation, and she ended up coming fourth. We need her to show that same kind of fight now.

'In China she took on girls from 50 countries, and came sixth and won the prize for best body.

'This is a desperately sad story and we are calling on potential donors to come forward and give blood.'

Pemba sasa yamkuna Kikwete

RAIS Jakaya Kikwete ameridhishwa na mabadiliko ya kisiasa yanayoendelea sasa katika kisiwa cha Pemba na kuwataka wananchi wake kuendelea na hali hiyo, kwa sababu kwenye siasa kila mmoja ana utashi wake, lakini siasa si uadui.

Akihutubia mkutano mkubwa wa hadhara wa wananchi kwenye Uwanja wa Gombani ya kale mjini Chake Chake juzi, Rais Kikwete alisema amevutiwa na hali ya mabadiliko hayo yanayojitokeza sasa na akasema hiyo ni ishara nzuri kwa wananchi wa kisiwa hicho kilichogubikwa na siasa tete kwa miaka kadhaa.

Alisema katika siasa kila mtu ana utashi wake, lakini siasa si uadui, na kwamba wanachama wa Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) na wale wa Chama cha Wananchi (CUF), wanapaswa kushirikiana kila baada ya uchaguzi kumalizika.

“Muige mfano wa ushabiki wa Simba na Yanga, wao wanashindana na kubishana wakati wa mechi, na inapomalizika wanarudi kuwa kitu kimoja hata kama mmoja wao ameshindwa. Mwingine anasubiri raundi ijayo. Mngetumia mithili hiyo, ukishindwa leo, unasubiri wakati mwingine,” alisema Rais na kuongeza:

“Mabadiliko hayo yanaashiria mambo mema, kwa hiyo kwa viongozi wenzangu wanaomba watazame matendo yao kwa sababu haya (ya vurugu) yanatokea kwa sababu ya matendo ya viongozi.

Tusiwapeleke wanachama wetu kusikotakiwa.” Aliwataka wananchi hao ambao wengi walikuwa ni wanachama wa CCM na wananchi wa mikoa miwili ya Kusini Pemba na Kaskazini Pemba, kukijenga kisiwa chao kwa kushirikiana na kusahau matatizo yao mara tu uchaguzi unapomalizika.

Alisema hilo litasaidia kuwavutia wawekezaji kuweka miradi yao katika kisiwa hicho kwa sababu watahakikishiwa usalama wa mali zao, tofauti na miaka ya karibuni, hali ilipokuwa tete kutokana na mzozo wa kisiasa baina ya vyama hivyo viwili vikuu, kiasi cha watu kutozikana, kutosalimiana na kuchomeana nyumba. Kwa upande wake, Waziri Kiongozi wa Serikali ya Mapinduzi Zanzibar, Shamsi Vuai Nahodha, alisema hali anayoiona sasa inaashiria mazuri kwa siku za usoni kwa kisiwa hicho na Chama Cha Mapinduzi kwa ujumla.

Aliwataka wana-CCM kutovunjika moyo kwa sababu wapo watu wenye mioyo migumu katika kukubali jambo, lakini SMZ itaendelea kuwapelekea maendeleo wananchi wa kisiwa hicho hata kama hawaoni jitihada zinazofanyika. “Naona mwanga wa matumaini, nitashangaa sana kama mwaka 2010 kama mioyo migumu haitalainika,” alisema Nahodha.

Naye mke wa Rais Kikwete, Salma aliwataka vijana wapatao 235 ambao walijiunga na CCM wakiwamo 65 kutoka vyama vya upinzani, kutoogopa na kutishwa, badala yake wawe mstari wa mbele kuitetea CCM. Naibu Katibu Mkuu wa CCM Zanzibar, Saleh Ramadhan Ferouz alisema mahali pasipo na amani uchumi unadidimia, hivyo akawataka wananchi wa Pemba kudumisha amani ili kuvutia wawekezaji.

Alimpongeza Rais Kikwete na Rais Amani Abeid Karume kwa ushirikiano wa pamoja uliosaidia kuleta maendeleo kwa wananchi wa Tanzania.

Yanga na Simba zafanya kweli ligi kuu

Timu za soka za Yanga na Simba jana ziliibuka na ushindi katika mechi za Ligi Kuu walizocheza kwenye viwanja tofauti. Simba iliyokuwa kwenye Uwanja wa Taifa, Dar es Salaam iliichapa Villa Squad kwa mabao 2-0 wakati Yanga ambayo ilisafiri hadi Uwanja wa Sokoine Mbeya iliibuka na ushindi wa bao 1-0 dhidi ya Prisons.

Baada ya kosakosa za hapa na pale, vijana hao wa mtaa wa Msimbazi wanaonolewa na Mzambia Patrick Phiri, walipata bao katika dakika ya 22, bao lililofungwa na Mussa Hassan ‘Mgosi’aliyeunganisha krosi ya Ulimboka Mwakingwe ambaye naye alipokea pande la Juma Nyosso aliyepanda mbele kusaidia mashambulizi.

Kwa matokeo hayo yameiwezesha Simba kuchupa kutoka nafasi ya sita katika msimamo wa ligi hadi nafasi ya nne, ikiwa na pointi 20 nyuma ya Mtibwa Sugar kwa pointi moja iliyofikisha pointi 21, Kagera Sugar yenye pointi 23 iko nafasi ya pili nyuma ya Yanga inayoongoza ligi hiyo ikiwa na pointi 36.

Katika mchezo huo wa jana, Simba na Villa walianza mchezo huo kwa kasi na endapo washambuliaji wake wangekuwa makini pengine hadithi ingekuwa tofauti kwani pamoja na kufungwa vijana wa Villa walionekana kucheza vyema lakini umaliziaji ulikuwa mbovu.

Dakika moja baadaye shuti la Nassoro Said ‘Cholo’ lilitoka nje kidogo ya lango, baada ya Ulimboka Mwakingwe, Jabir Azizi na Nico Nyagawa kugongeana vizuri. Villa walijaribu kujitutumua na kujibu shambulizi hilo katika dakika ya 25 na kupata kona ambayo ilichongwa na Yusuph Gogo na kuokolewa na walinzi wa Simba ambao walikuwa wakiongozwa vyema na Juma Saidi ‘Nyosso’ kulilinda lango lao.

Katika dakika ya 31 ya mchezo Simba walifanya mabadiliko kwa kumwingiza Henry Joseph badala ya Mohamed Banka ili kuimarisha safu yake ya kiungo ambayo ilionekana kulegalega kidogo wakati Villa walimwingiza Iddi moshi badala ya Mussa Nampaka.

Baada ya bao hilo Simba waliongeza kasi na kuwafanya walinzi wa Villa kuwa na kazi ya ziada kuwakabili lakini washambuliaji wa Simba bado hawakuwa makini zaidi kupachika mabao zaidi.

Pande zote mbili zilifanya mabadiliko kwa Simba kuwaingiza Orji Obina, Adam King’wande badala ya Ramadhan Chombo na Jabir Aziz ambaye kabla ya kutoka alikuwa ameumizwa, Villa wao waliwaingiza Lameck Daiton, Jackson Chikwela badala ya Athumani Kibarati na Ally Kulwa, mabadiliko yaliyoonekana kuinufaisha zaidi Simba .

Matokeo hayo si mazuri kwa Villa, kwani imebaki nafasi ya 11 kati ya timu 12 zinazoshiriki ligi hiyo, ikiwa na pointi zake 11 na ina michezo tisa mkononi imalize ligi hiyo ambayo itashuhudia timu tatu za mwisho zikishuka daraja.

Hata hivyo, Kocha wa Villa Kennedy Mwaisabula alijinasibu kuwa timu hiyo ipo imara na itafanya vyema katika michezo yake iliyosalia, na haitoshuka daraja kama watu wengi wanavyodhania kwani ina mechi nyingi za nyumbani ambazo ana hakika vijana wake watafanya maajabu. Kutoka Mbeya inaripotiwa, bao la Yanga lilifungwa katika dakika ya 76, bao hilo lilifungwa na Athumani Idd aliyeunganisha krosi ya Mrisho Ngassa liliipa Yanga ushindi wa 1-0 dhidi ya Prisons.

See video of Barack Obama being sworn in here:

Congratulations, Mr President! Two million watch Obama take the oath as America's first black commander-in-chief

Barack Obama made history this afternoon as he was sworn in as America's first black president.

Two million watching people crammed into the streets of Washington - with over a billion watching on television around the world - as the 47-year-old junior senator from Chicago became the most powerful man in the world.

His wife Michelle and two daughters Sasha and Malia watched as Mr Obama made the famous inauguration pledge to take over the White House from George Bush.

Starting his long-awaited inauguration speech, Mr Obama said: 'Starting today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin again the work of remaking America.'

The challenges America faces - two wars, an economy in crisis, healthcare, education and the environment - are real, he said, speaking with a teleprompter.

But he added: 'On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord.

'On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics.

It's all yours, now: Barack Obama, Laua Bush, George Bush and Michelle Obama pose on the steps of the White House before going inside for coffee

'We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things. The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.'

With his hand on the Bible used in the 1861 inauguration of Abraham Lincoln - held by his grinning wife Michelle - Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts administered the 35-word oath of office taken by every American president dating to George Washington.

Cannons fired as onlookers burst into ecstatic cheers.

The White House Web site - the online bastion of the Bush administration for the past eight years - has already been updated to reflect President Barack Obama's assumption of office.

'The White House. President Barack Obama," reads the top of the new home page, which went live even before Obama finished delivering his first speech. "Welcome to the new WhiteHouse.gov. Change has come to America.'

However the dawn of the Obama presidency could not shake Wall Street from its dejection over the banking industry's growing problems. After hearing the new president's inaugural address, investors continued selling, sending the major indexes down more than two per cent.

Minutes before he was sworn in, Mr Obama had watched as Joe Biden was sworn in as his Vice President.

The crowd - which had earlier booed George Bush - could be heard chanting 'Obama!' and 'Yes we can!' as Mr Obama strode out on stage.

The President-elect arrived with Mr Bush in a motorcade from the White House. Michelle Obama, her daughters Sacha and Malia, and the Bidens have also arrived.

Former U.S. Presidents Bill Clinton and Mr Bush's father George H.W. Bush, as well as Mr Clinton's wife and the new Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, are all present for the swearing-in ceremony.

Earlier, the Bushs and the Obamas greeted each other on the steps of the White House - with Mr Bush breaking the tension by jovially shuffling from side to side as Mrs Obama went to kiss him first, then changed her mind to kiss Mrs Bush instead.

There Mr Bush hosted Mr Obama for coffee - and formally handed over the keys to the White House.

Day of history: Over a million people are watching Barack Obama be sworn in

Mr Bush and his successor rode together in a heavily armoured Cadillac to the Capitol building for the inauguration ceremony.

Mr Obama began the biggest day of his life with a low-key visit to church this morning - his final moments of privacy.

He waved to bystanders as he walked into St John's Church in Washington this morning, holding hands with his wife Michelle - clad in sparkling gold.

As bells pealed, the Obamas entered the church to applause from about 200 people. The choir and congregation began singing the hymn, 'O God Our Help in Ages Past.

Vice President-elect Joe Biden joined the Obamas for the traditional morning worship in the church, across Lafayette Park from the White House.

The Rev. Luis Leon welcomed the Obamas and said every president since James Madison, the country's fourth, has worshipped at the church at least once, 'some of them kicking and screaming.'

Braving sub-zero temperatures, thousands of people gathered by first light this morning to watch Mr Obama be sworn in as America's first black president.

Mr Bush has already left a note for Mr Obama in the top drawer of his desk in the Oval Office, following tradition.

White House press secretary Dana Perino said the theme of the message was that Obama is about to begin a 'fabulous new chapter' in the United States, and that he wishes him well.

By 4 a.m. Washington time this morning, lines of riders formed in suburban parking lots for the Metro transit system, which put on extra trains and opened an hour early for the expected rush.

The unprecedented security operation was launched at 4am, with roads and bridges leading on to the Mall closed to traffic, as well as ground, air and water patrols.

'Tomorrow, we will come together as one people on the same mall where Dr King's dream echoes still,' he said.

It was the President-elect's last official statement before he takes the oath as president at noon today and receives the keys to the White House, which was partly built with the labour of slaves.

The inauguration of Mr Obama will mark a milestone in America's turbulent history of race relations.

In one of his final interviews before assuming the presidency, Mr Obama said: 'There is an entire generation that will grow up taking for granted that the highest office in the land is filled by an African American.'

Mr Obama was born to a black Kenyan father and a white American mother. His father, Barack Obama Sr., married his mother, Ann Dunham, while studying at the University of Hawaii. The couple separated two years after Obama was born.

Vibaka wachomwa moto kwa wizi wa baiskeli

Watu wanaodaiwa kuwa ni wenye hasira kali wamewaua kwa kuwachoma moto watu watatu katika kijiji cha Kidahwe kata ya matendo mkoani Kigoma baada ya kuwabaini wakifanya jaribio la kupora baiskeli

Kwa mjibu wa kamanda wa polisi mkoani Kigoma Abdihak Rashid tukio hilo la kuuawa kwa watu hao lilitokea siku ya ijumaa january 16 majira ya saa 11 jioni ambapo watu hao watatu waliouawa wakiwa na mapanga na nondo walimvamia Bw.Cassiano ambaye ni mkazi wa kijiji hicho kwa lengo la kumnyang'anya baiskeli yake

Kamanda Rashid aliongeza kuwa mara baada ya Bw.Cassim kupiga kelele za kuomba msaada ndipo wananchi wema walijitokeza kutoa msaada na kuanza kupambana na watu hao ambao walizidiwa nguvu na kupigwa hadi kufa na kisha kuchomwa moto kwa hasira

Hadi sasa miili ya watu hao haijatambuliwa kwa majina na imehifadhiwa katika hospitali ya mkoa Maweni wakati gwaride la utambulisho likiendelea toka kwa watu ambao wanaweza kuwa ndugu zao

Aidha kamanda Abdhaki amekemea tabia hiyo ya wananchi kujichulia madaraka mikononi na kuwataka kuwa na utamaduni wa kufuata sheria wanapowabaini watuhumiwa kwani ni ruksa kwa mtu yeyote kujichukulia madaraka kutoa maisha ya mwingine

Uchunguzi zaidi umebaini kuwa hatua hiyo imefikiwa na wananchi hao kufuatia kuchoshwa na matukio ya mara kwa mara ya ujambazi hivyo wanapombaini mtu yeyote kujihusisha na vitendo hivyo wanajikuta wameua bila kukusudia.

Pamela Anderson struggles to stay in her tiny bikini as she frolics with new mystery man

It may be 20 years since Pamela Anderson first stripped off for Playboy magazine, but the former Baywatch star is continuing to show off her famous curves.

The Canadian model-turned-actress-turned-author nearly flashed a bit too much of her gravity-defying curves as she frolicked on the beach with the latest man in her life.

Wearing a loose-fitting brown bikini, the 41-year-old wrestled in the sand with her hat-wearing lover.

Beach babe: Pamela Anderson has substituted her famous red Baywatch swimsuit for an ill-fitting brown bikini

The blonde bombshell was spotted topping up her tan on a Malibu beach, just a short walk from her beachside home.

After play fighting with her new beau, Pamela strode along the beach, appearing unaware her ill-fitting bikini bottoms were slipping down her derrière.

Pamela has been spotted on the beach with her mystery man several times last week, and introduced him to celebrity pal Matthew McConaughey when they bumped into each other one afternoon.

It looks like the mother-of-two may have found love again after three failed marriage.

Pamela split from Rick Saloman - most famous as Paris Hilton's co-star in her infamous sex tape - in December 2007, after just nine weeks of marriage.

She was also married to rap/rocker Kid Rock for four months in 2006 and Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee for three years in the late Nineties.

After making her Playboy debut in 1989 after being discovered on a TV screen while attending a Canadian football game, Pamela is hoping to appear in the men's magazine for the 14th time this year.

Pamela reminded Playboy boss Hugh Hefner of her assets in April when she presented him with his birthday cake while completely naked at his 82nd bash.

Pamela will next be seen on screen in the comedy Hollywood & Wine, alongside Shoot Me comedian David Space.
