Airtel Launch Girl Empowerment Program for secondary school

The Girl Empowerment Program” under the theme ” Build Your Future”, aimed at empowering Secondary school girls Saturday 10th March 2012, As part of our Corporate Social Responsibility initiative, Airtel Tanzania has today launch ”The Girl Empowerment Program” under the theme ” Build Your Future”, aimed at empowering Secondary school girls aged 14 to 18 years, in achieving their future career goals and build self confidence amongst young women. 

The Girl Empowerment Program is key to Airtel as it goes hand in hand with Airtel’s mission of educating the girl child and creating brand loyalty. Apart from the fact that they need clear rules, consistent consequences for breaking rules and encouragement to do their best, young girls need opportunities outside of school curriculum to learn and develop new skills and interests with other youth and adults. Speaking during the launch held at Canossa Girls Secondary School in Tegeta, Dar es Salam Airtel customer Care Director Adrianna Lyamba said ”Today we kick start the program this quarter with “Canossa Girls Secondary School in Tegeta, The Girl Empowerment Program will be an ongoing program which will be done quarterly to Girls Secondary Schools around Tanzania and in this program we will be covering different topics relating to career management, building self confidence and making the right decisions in life. We will be requesting our own employees to volunteer to speak in schools and share their career experiences and skills with the students. This will enable the students understand what it takes to build a career and select the right career path in life”. 

 “There is the say that saying, when you educate a women you have educated the whole community, we therefore believe the knowledge acquired will be a great significance to girl’s destiny and for the upcoming generation. She added We are highly committed towards supporting Tanzanian community, apart from Girl empowerment program we have been supporting education sector through Shule yetu program were we provide books to Secondary schools in the country, our aim is to improve education level through availability books to secondary schools students. Since we started our books support programme, approximately seven years ago, we have reached more than 800 secondary schools that are spread across the country”

MOHAMMED DEWJI "MO" HONOURED AS THE WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM YOUNG GLOBAL LEADER.

Tanzania’s young entrepreneur Mohammed Dewji has been announced by the World Economic Forum as a 2012 Young Global Leader.

Mohamed Dewji

Mr. Dewji (pictured) who is famously known as MO is the CEO of one of the largest business corporation in Tanzania, MeTL Group and a member of parliament for Singida urban constituency.

The honour bestowed each year by the Forum, recognizes and acknowledges up to 200 outstanding young leaders from around the world for their professional accomplishments, commitment to society and potential to contribute to shaping the future of the world.

The Selection Committee, chaired by Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, chose Mohammed after carefully screening the profiles of thousands of young leaders from every region of the world and from a myriad of disciplines and sectors.

His nomination is in recognition of his record of professional accomplishments, his commitment to society and his potential to contribute to shaping the future of the world through his inspiring leadership.

Mohammed Dewji was born in 1975 in rural area of Singida, Tanzania. He received his early education at the International School of Tanganyika and then, in 1992, moved to the US for his High School diploma. It was Saddlebrook High School in Florida where he first exhibited signs of leadership by becoming the School President. They endearingly called him Mo, and the nickname has since stuck.

Mo then moved on to Georgetown University in Washington DC. He balanced this material academic pursuit majoring in International Business and Finance and a minor in Theology. Georgetown University’s ethos of pursuing excellence and embracing the community affected him in a momentous way. He grew determined to find a meaningful way forward by blending what Georgetown was giving him with what his motherland Tanzania needed.

He thereafter charted a careful course for his life. In 1998 it began with the family business where he rose to the key leadership role within two years. Under his leadership MeTL Group took shape as a conglomerate that grew 12 folds in less than a decade: That, incidentally, contributes to nearly 3% of the country’s GDP and employing 24,000 people. 

Mo applied the same aim-organize-achieve mantra to Tanzanian football and he is recognized as the key driver in the national team’s successes.

In Tanzania’s third multi party elections in 2005, Mo contested and won the Singida parliamentary seat with an overwhelming majority of 90 percent of the total votes and was sworn in as a member of parliament on the 29th of December 2005. In 2007, CCM (the ruling party) elected him to a seat on the elite National Executive Committee. He was re-elected as a member of parliament for Singida urban constituency for the period of 2010 to 2015.

The 2012 YGL honorees will become part of the broader Forum of Young Global Leaders community that currently comprises 866 outstanding individuals. The YGLs convene at an annual summit, which will be held this year in Mexico on 14-18 April. Young Global Leaders are actively engaged in the community, integrating into events organized by the WEF and organizing events of their own as well as launching and leading a number of innovative initiatives and task forces.

MABADILIKO NDANI YA FACEBOOK (KALENDA YA MATUKIO YAJUMUISHWA)

Muonekano mpya wa facebook, timeline ikionekana eneo  kulia chini kwenye picha.

Facebook ikiwa ni nyumba ya online kwa mamilioni ya watu duniani, hivyo mabadiliiko yanayotokea kwenye facebook ni dhahiri yanaathiri wengi wetu. Katika siku za karibuni Facebook wamekuja na kitu kipya ambacho wenyewe wanakiitaTimeline, hii Timeline ni mpangilio mpya wa kurasa za facebook ambao unamuwezesha mtumiaji kupanga picha, matukio n.k kulingana na muda husika.

Katika Timeline (Kalenda ya matukio), utaweza kupanga taarifa zako kwa mtindo wa kipekee zaidi huku ukimpa nafasi mtembeleaji kuzipitia kwa haraka zaidi. Kama utaangalia picha ya hapo juu, utaona kwenye timeline yangu mtu akija mara ya kwanza ataona marafiki, picha na mengine mengi. Siyo hayo tu, kwa kutumia Timeline mtu anaweza kuangalia matukio yako toka siku ya kwanza uliyojiunga na facebook.

Katika siku zilizopita Timeline ilikuwa ni kwa wanaohitaji, ila kuanzia tarehe moja mwezi wa pili Timeline itakuwa ni lazima, utake usitake ni lazima utumie au kwa lugha ya kiufundi tunaweza iita default. Hivyo usishangae kuona mabadiliko kwenye kurasa yako.

Kitu ambacho kimenivuta kuandika hii makala ni kuwa, ingawa Timeline ni nzuri na ya kuvutia, ila Facebook inaonekana wanazidi kufanya mambo kuwa magumu, ni dhahiri kuwa kufanikiwa kwa facebook kumekuja kutokana na urahisi wa utumiaji. Hivyo kufanya mambo kuwa magumu kutawafanya watu wengi kuikimbia au kushindwa kuifungua hususan wale walio kwenye mgao wa bandwith (internet zilizo taratibu mno). Kuna siku niliwahi kuona mpachiko wa rafiki yangu ambaye ni mtumiaji mzuri mno wa facebook, yeye alikuwa akilalamika kwa kusema nani amesema tunataka hii Timeline?

Kitu kingine kikubwa ambacho kinaniumiza kichwa ni privacy, facebook wenyewe mara kibao wamekiri kuwa privacy ni moja ya vitu vinavyowaumiza kichwa, kwenye facebook ya sasa mtu anaweza kuona matukio yako ndani ya wiki hadi mwezi, ila sasa kwenye hii Timeline mtu anaona tukio tangu siku ya kwanza uliyojiunga facebook, sasa huku si kuwaumbua watu? Chukulia mfano kwa wale wenzangu na mimi wazee wa kuongopa, huu si ndio mwanzo wa kukamatwa? Hivyo basi kwa kuweka Timeline kuwa default kutawatatiza wengi. Habari njema ni kuwa kuanzia sasa unaweza kuanza kufuta matukio kadhaa usiyopenda kuwaonesha watu hadi hapo Januari 31.

Je wewe unalionaje hili?

Posho za wabunge zapanda kimyakimya:ZAPANDA KUTOKA SH70,000 HADI 200,000, NI ZAIDI YA ASILIMIA 150

Wabunge wakiwa katika moja ya vikao vya bunge mjini Dodoma

HUKU mjadala wa kufutwa au kwa posho za wabunge na watumishi wengine wa Serikali ukiwa umefifia, posho za vikao (sitting allowance) za wabunge zimepanda kutoka Sh70,000 kwa siku hadi Sh200,000, imefahamika.

“Zimeongezeka kutoka Sh70,000 mpaka 200,000, wameanza kulipwa Bunge lililopita hili ni ongezeko la karibu mara tatu, yaani asilimia 154,” kilieleza chanzo chetu kutoka ndani ya Ofisi za Bunge.

Kutoka na ongezeko hilo, kwa sasa kila mbunge atakuwa akilipwa Sh80,000 ikiwa ni posho ya kujikimu (perdiem) anapokuwa nje jimbo lake, posho ya vikao (sitting allowance) Sh200,000 na mafuta ya gari Sh50,000 kila siku, ambazo jumla yake ni Sh330,000 kwa siku.

Kutokana na ongezeko hilo, Bajeti ya Bunge kwa ajili ya posho za vikao vya wabunge imepanda na kufikia Sh28 bilioni kwa mwaka.

Katibu wa Bunge, Dk Thomas Kashililah alipoulizwa kuhusu taarifa hizo alisema hawezi kuzungumzia jambo hilo kwa sababu siyo msemaji wa wabunge, bali Ofisi ya Bunge.

“Ni nani kawapa hizo taarifa bwana, au ni vyanzo vyenu vya habari?” alihoji Dk Kashililah.

Baada ya kuelezwa kuwa taarifa hizo zimetoka kwenye vyanzo vyetu vya kuaminika alisema “Hao wana utaratibu wao bwana, labda mtafute Spika ndiye msemaji wa Wabunge.”

Juhudi za kumpata Spika, Anne Makinda kutoa ufafanuzi wa suala hili, hazikufanikiwa baada ya simu yake kuita wakati wote bila kupokewa hata pale alipotumiwa ujumbe mfupi wa simu (sms) hakujibu. Hata simu zote za Naibu wake, Job Ndugai hazikupatikana.

Hata hivyo, Mbunge wa Ludewa (CCM), Deo Filikunjombe alisema kuongezeka kwa posho hizo kunatokana na wabunge kuwa wanalipwa mishahara midogo kulingana na kazi wanayofanya.

Alisema endapo wawakilishi hao wa wananchi wangekuwa wanalipwa mishahara inayolingana na kazi wanayofanya, kusingekuwa na sababu ya kuongezeka kwa posho hizo.

“Ninachosema mimi, siyo wabunge peke yao, lakini watumishi wote wa umma wanalipwa mishahara midogo sana mimi binafsi sitegemei posho za Bunge, kabla ya kuingia bungeni nilikuwa nimefanya kazi kwa miaka 14 na nilikuwa napata mshahara mzuri tu,” alisema Filikunjombe.

Mbunge wa Iringa Mjini (Chadema), Mchungaji Peter Msigwa alisema amezisikia taarifa hizo za kuongezeka kwa posho lakini siyo kwa undani. Hata hivyo alisema hakuwa katika nafasi nzuri ya kuzungumza suala hilo.

Kiongozi wa Kambi Rasmi ya Upinzani Bungeni, Freeman Mbowe alisema walivyokuwa wakipinga posho hizo wakati zilivyokuwa Sh70,000 waandishi wa habari walichukua suala hilo kama ajenda ya Chadema, hivyo kupandishwa kwa posho hizo ni matokeo ya watu kuwapuuza walivyokuwa wakizipinga.

“Msimamo wetu sisi tulishautoa tangu wakati posho zikiwa Sh70,000 wakati sisi tukipinga hizi posho waandishi wa habari na Watanzania mlichukulia suala hili kama ajenda ya Chadema, sisi wenyewe tupo wachache bungeni, tulichotaka ni kuonyesha jinsi fedha za Watanzania zinavyotumika vibaya,” alisema na kuongeza:

“Achilia mbali hizo 200,000 za wabunge kuna watu huko serikalini wanalipwa mpaka Sh400,000 au Sh1 milioni kwa siku nyie ulizeni.”

Alipoulizwa kama amechukua posho hiyo ya Sh200,000 alisema hajafanya hivyo kwa sababu hazifuatilii.

“Sijui hata kama zimeanza kulipwa au la kwa sababu huwa sizifuatilii na haka kama suala la posho hilo zilijadiliwa wakati wa vikao vya mwanzo mimi sikuwepo kwa sababu tulikuwa kwenye kesi yetu Arusha na bungeni tulikuja mwishoni wakati wa Muswada wa Katiba,” alisema Mbowe.

Ongezeko hili la posho za wabunge limekuja wakati Watanzania wakiendelea kuishi kwenye maisha magumu yanayochangiwa na mfumuko wa bei ambao mpaka mwisho mwa Oktoba ulikuwa umefikia asilimia 17.9.

Pia ongezeko hili limekuja wakati Watanzania wakiwa na matumaini ya posho hizi kupunguzwa baada ya Waziri Mkuu, Mizengo Pinda, kutangaza bungeni kuwa Serikali imekubali pendekezo la kutafakari na kuziangalia upya posho mbalimbali wanazolipwa wabunge na watumishi wote umma.

Mbunge wa Muhambwe (NCCR-Mageuzi), Felix Mkosamali alisema kuwa hawezi kuzungumza chochote juu ya posho hizo kwa kuwa hajapata barua rasmi juu ya kupanda kwake.

“Sijapata barua yoyote, nikiuliza na kupata majibu kwa wahusika nitakuwa na uhakika na nitakupa maoni yangu na msimamo wangu vizuri kabisa, lakini kwa sasa siwezi kusema chochote,” alisema Mkosamali.

Juni 7, mwaka huu Naibu Kiongozi wa Kambi Rasmi ya Upinzani Bungeni Zitto Kabwe, aliwasilisha barua Ofisi ya Bunge akikataa posho akisema watumishi wa Serikali na wabunge, hawastahili kulipwa posho wanapohudhuria vikao rasmi vya uwajibikaji wao wa kawaida.

Zitto alisema posho hiyo haistahili kulipwa kwake, wabunge wengine wala watumishi wa umma kwa kuwa kuhudhuria vikao ni sehemu ya kazi zao.

Alisema kitendo cha Waziri Mkuu kueleza kuwa watatafakari na kuangalia upya na kwamba suala la posho ni sera ya taifa na Ilani ya Uchaguzi ya CCM, ni ishara ya kiongozi huyo wa juu kukubali wazo la Chadema na safari ya kufuta posho hizo.

Awali, mara baada ya Chadema kutangaza msimamo huo, Spika Makinda alipinga uamuzi wa kususia posho akisema suala hilo lipo kisheria na kwamba hakuna mtu ambaye anaweza kuamua kuliondoa.

Alisema wabunge wa Chadema wataendelea kulipwa posho za vikao kupitia akaunti zao za benki na watatakiwa kusaini fomu ya mahudhurio ya Bunge, vinginevyo watajiweka katika wakati mbaya.

Hata hivyo, akihitimisha hoja za wabunge katika hotuba yake ya makadirio ya matumizi ya ofisi yake na zilizo chini yake juzi, Pinda alisema suala la posho lipo kwenye mchakato wa kuangaliwa upya.

How to Forgive yourself

No matter what the occasion, we often find ourselves looking for the best gift possible to give those we care about.  We want to find some token of our affection to give them that says, “I care about you.”  Of course, the best gifts to give those around us aren’t those that can be bought in any store.  To show how much we love others, we need to let go of the hurt and pain that they have caused and forgive them.  Love and forgiveness along with second chances are the best gifts we can possibly give to others.

 But what about yourself?  Have you thought about giving yourself the gift of forgiveness this year?  Are you ready to be free and ready to move ahead into a life of graciousness and love in the future?  If you are, you must forgive yourself for the mistakes you’ve made – and that can be a difficult thing to do!  It’s easy to try and hide our mistakes and not think about them, but what we hide has power over us; 

it can sit there in the back of our minds and fester, eating away at our self-assurance and our sense of God’s love for us, making us wonder if we are truly worthy.  We have to let go of our mistakes and forgive ourselves just as God forgives us.  And He does forgive us, completely and with no reservations!

“You are a God ready to forgive, gracious and merciful.”

- Nehemiah 9:17

“Do not judge, and you will not be judged; do not condemn, and you will not be condemned.  Forgive, and you will be forgiven.”

- Luke 6:37

When you are ready to forgive yourself, there are six steps that I’ve found very helpful in helping me on the path to self-forgiveness.  Perhaps they will help you in your struggle to let go of you past mistakes and embrace forgiveness:

Six Steps Toward Forgiving Yourself

1.   Take out a sheet of paper and write your name at the top.  Now take some time to think about all of those things you’ve never let go of in your past that you haven’t forgiven yourself for.

2.   Write down what those transgressions are and who you hurt; how you hurt them, etc.  Was it verbal or physical abuse?  Dishonesty? Neglecting someone you cared about? Betrayal? Rejection? Theft? Rape? Lying? Addiction? Adultery?

3.   Write down how you feel about yourself because of these unresolved feelings over your past mistakes.  Be very honest with yourself.  Although you may have made amends or been forgiven by others, do you still feel unworthy?  God knows how you feel and He sees your heart.  Express on paper how you feel and let the emotions flow – release them!

4.   Decide to forgive yourself.  Forgiveness is not a feeling but a decision of the will and one of the greatest Gifts from God.  He has told us to forgive and that He will give us the power to do so – but it all begins with the decision to do so.

5.   Take your list to God and acknowledge your forgiveness to Him.  “Lord, I come to You today and give up my unforgiveness.  I forgive myself for ____________________.  At this moment, I choose not to hold these offenses against myself, but put them into Your Hands.  God, heal my emotional wounds and help me to be able to move forward without regrets and help me to let go of the past and start fresh.  God give me the ability to  offer upliftment and comfort to someone else with the same comfort you have given me.   I release my past sins of ____________into Your Hands.”

6.   Destroy the list in private.  This visual exercise can be very freeing.  Whether you decide to shred it, burn it  or tear it up and scatter it in the trash, imagine your past mistakes being destroyed and floating away in the same manner.

This is what it means to be “born again.”  The Lord doesn’t want us to dwell on what has happened before – our lives as Christians are about who we are now and in the future, walking in forgiveness and love.  So give yourself a wonderful gift that is free of charge and yet priceless this year – forgive yourself!

Prayer:

Heavenly Father,

Alone with You in this moment of meditation and prayer, I release any unresolved feelings of resentment or regret.

Help me through this process of healing.

I release to you any unresolved feelings that I have toward myself.  I understand that not forgiving myself is disobedience toward you.

Forgive me for any pain that I have caused in the lives of others.  Forgive me for not letting go of the past and moving forward in love.

I experience now the relief of forgiveness to the depths of my being.

Heavenly Father, I acknowledge and give thanks for Your love that strengthens me, comforts and soothes me emotionally, mentally, physically and spiritually.

In the complete fullness of Your Love, I can and do forgive myself.

Thank you, Heavenly Father, for healing my heart and bringing Joy and Meaning back into my life.

In the Name of Jesus, Amen.

UN chief Ban Ki-moon says deposed leader's death "marks a historic transition for Libya".

                                            UN chief Ban Ki-moon

Colonel Gaddafi's whereabouts had been largely unknown until his death in his hometown of Sirte on Thursday [Reuters
Libya's ousted leader had been on the run since National Transitional Council (NTC) forces captured the capital Tripoli and forced him to flee in August.

Gaddafi had vowed to die defending his country and railed against NATO's attacks that helped boost the military campaign against his regime. Below are reactions from world leaders to his death

	UN secretary-general Ban Ki-moon  This day marks a historic transition for Libya. In the coming days, we will witness scenes of celebration as well as grief for those who lost so much. Now is the time for all Libyans to come together. Libyans can only realise the promise of the future for national unity and reconciliation. Combatants on all sides must lay down their arms in peace. This is the time for healing and rebuilding, for generosity of spirit, not for revenge. US Vice-president Joe Biden The Libyan people have gotten rid of a dictator. NATO got it right. The European Union The death of Gaddafi marks the end of an era of despotism, said Herman Van Rompuy, the bloc's president. That Gaddafi died in a raid in Sirte means an end also to the repression from which the Libyan people have suffered for too long. British prime minister David Cameron People in Libya today have an even greater chance after this news of building themselves a strong and democratic future. Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi Now the war is over. Sic transit gloria mundi [Thus passes the glory of the world] French President Nicolas Sarkozy The disappearance of Muammar Gaddafi is a major step forward in the battle fought for more than eight months by the Libyan people to liberate themselves from the dictatorial and violent regime imposed on them for more than 40 years.

Libya must now quickly take further resolute steps towards democracy and make the achievments so far of the Arab Spring irreversible.

OVERCOME YOUR FEAR

Fear keeps us in the background. It convinces us we can never accomplish our dreams, tells us to keep quiet, and separates us from the ones we love. Fear has an unparalleled ability to freeze us in our tracks, and limit what we are willing to try. Fear makes us lead a smaller life.

The things that we are afraid of may be different, but our reactions to fear are usually the same – our palms sweat, our mouths get dry, our stomachs churn — and we would do anything, make any sacrifice, just to make it go away. How many times have you turned away from an opportunity or even a relationship because you were too afraid to go for it?

Fear is not a bad thing. It exists for our protection as an early warning signal. But there is a big difference between the healthy fear that tells us to step away from the edge of a cliff and a constant fear that keeps us from living our life. Dr. Henry Cloud, counselor and author, in his article “Overcoming Fear,” recommends several active steps we can take to battle the fear that controls us

connecting with others, creating structure, learning relaxation techniques and developing a spiritual life and face your fears. Fortunately for us, there are practical ways to take the doctor’s advice.

1. Connecting with others. All fears, no matter how big or small are worse when we face them alone. Find a good friend to share your fears with. We tend to resist admitting our fears because we are afraid that the person will think less of us, that they will laugh or make things worse. Find someone you can trust, possibly a counselor, maybe a relative or trusted friend and share what’s bothering you. They may be able to help you see what you’re afraid of in a new light and they will be there to stand by you and encourage you as you take steps to face your fears.

2. Create structure. If it’s a new situation that is causing your worries, Dr. Cloud recommends building structure into your schedule to create safety. If you exercise, exercise at the same time every day, arrange to meet a friend for coffee at the same time each week. Structure gives us a sense of security because we know what to expect. There is comfort in the familiar. If you take control of what you can, it will give you a good starting place from which to face the things you can’t control.


3. Learn relaxation techniques. Fear, left to grow can lead to some serious health problems. If your fears are having a physical effect on health, learning some relaxation techniques may help you to be physically ready to face the challenge ahead. There are numerous resources online on this subject as well as a wealth of information at the library. Find the technique that works for you.

4. Develop a spiritual life. In times of crisis, spiritual truths that are
consistent in any circumstances are a great comfort. They give us safety and familiarity and, more importantly, they give us a reason to hope. If you do not have a spiritual life or faith consider talking to a pastor or read the Bible. The book of Psalms in particular speaks to people that are facing difficulties.

5. Face your fears. Finally, the last step is to actually face your fears. First, it is important to note that some fears are healthy and some situations should be avoided for your own personal safety. There are no hero points awarded for going into a personally threatening situation. However, if the threat is more mental than physical, actually doing the thing you’re afraid of can be the best antidote of all. Don’t forget that it is often easiest to do this in steps.

If your biggest fear is public speaking (and it is for the majority of us) don’t offer to address the room at the next stock holder’s meeting, but do try something smaller. Consider leading your next departmental meeting, or give a small talk at your next group meeting, something with a small audience and familiar faces, then work your way up from there. Facing your fears is a process.

President Obama,Gates, Zuckerberg are saddened to learn Stephen Jobs's death

Apple Inc co-founder and former CEO Steve Jobs, counted among the greatest American CEOs of his generation, died on Wednesday 5th October, 2011 at the age of 56, after a years-long and highly public battle with cancer and other health issues.

Jobs' death was announced by Apple in a statement saying: "Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. "Those of us who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve have lost a dear friend and an inspiring mentor. "Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple."

Also President Obama saying “Michelle and I are saddened to learn of the passing of Steve Jobs. Steve was among the greatest of American innovators - brave enough to think differently, bold enough to believe he could change the world, and talented enough to do it.

By building one of the planet's most successful companies from his garage, he exemplified the spirit of American ingenuity. By making computers personal and putting the internet in our pockets, he made the information revolution not only accessible, but intuitive and fun.

And by turning his talents to storytelling, he has brought joy to millions of children and grownups alike. Steve was fond of saying that he lived every day like it was his last. Because he did, he transformed our lives, redefined entire industries, and achieved one of the rarest feats in human history: he changed the way each of us sees the world.”

Bill Gates (founder of Microsoft and 3rd richest person in the world) saying “I’m truly saddened to learn of Steve Jobs’ death. Melinda and I extend our sincere condolences to his family and friends, and to everyone Steve has touched through his work.

Steve and I first met nearly 30 years ago, and have been colleagues, competitors and friends over the course of more than half our lives.
The world rarely sees someone who has had the profound impact Steve has had, the effects of which will be felt for many generations to come.

For those of us lucky enough to get to work with him, it’s been an insanely great honor. I will miss Steve immensely”.

Mark Zuckerberg ( founder of facebook) saying "Steve, thank you for being a mentor and a friend. Thanks for showing that what you build can change the world. I will miss you."

An email address for tributes to Jobs was set up at rememberingsteve@apple.com The statement from the company went on: "Steve's brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives. The world is immeasurably better because of Steve."

People all over the world mourn but for memorial Every time we hold and use an Apple product Steve Jobs will be with us.

Waliosimamishwa UDOM sasa kurejeshwa kwa mafungu

Dodoma
WANAFUNZI zaidi ya 400 waliofukuzwa chuo kikuu cha dodoma hivi karibuni kwa kuandamana kudai fedha za kwenda mafunzo kwa vitendo watarejeshwa kwa mafungu huku vinara wa maandamano hayo wakikabiliwa na hatari ya kufukuzwa moja kwa moja ili iwe fundisho kwa wanafunzi wengine wanaogoma.

Makamu Mkuu wa Chuo Kikuu cha Dodoma (udom), Prof Idris Kikula pichani alisema juzi chuoni hapo kuwa, uamuzi huo ulifikiwa jana na Kamati ya Utendaji ya Baraza la uongozi la chuo hicho lililokutana kujadili matatizo yaliyosababisha wanafunzi hao wakagoma na kuandamana licha ya Serikali kutoa fedha za mafunzo kwa vitendo.
“Baada ya Serikali kukubali kutoa fedha za wanafunzi kwenda mafunzo kwa vitendo, nilienda saa sita usiku kuwaambia kuwa serikali imetoa fedha na hivyo hawakuwa na sababu ya kuandamana kesho yake kama walivyokuwa wamepanga lakini kwa kuwa walikuwa na ajenda nyingine zaidi ya fedha, walikataa na kuandamana. Kutokana na hali hiyo, Kamati ya Utendaji iliyokutana leo(jana) imeamua kukubaliana na uamuzi wa chuo kuwafukuza na kisha kuweka masharti ya jinsi ya kuwarudisha wale ambao hawataonekana kuhusika moja kwa moja na chanzo cha maandamano hayo, |Profesa Kikula alisema ofisini kwake.

Alisema kamati hiyo imeamua kuidhinisha mapendekezo na maamuzi ya Kamati ya Ushauri ya Udom iliyokutana Juni 13 na Juni 14 mwaka huu ya kuwafukuza wanafunzi wote wa Chuo ya Sayansi za asili na hesabu (SNM) na Chuo cha Sanaa na Sayansi za Jamii (COHSS) wapatao 400 ili uchunguzi kubaini wahusika ufanyike na adhabu stahili zichukuliwe kwa watakaobainika kuwa chanzo cha maandamanano hayo au kuwalazimisha wengine kuandamana isivyo halali.


Proff. Kikula alisema Kamati ya Utendaji iliyokutana jana iliidhinisha mapendekezo ya Kamati ya ushauri iliyopendekeza pamoja na mambo mengine kuwafukuza wanafunzi wote wa shahada ya kwanza wa COHSS, kuwachukulia hatua za kinidhamu, wanafunzi wote waliohusika na maandamano hayo na kwamba wanafunzi waliofukuzwa warudishwe chuoni kwa utaratibu maalum utakaotangazwa baada ya uchunguzi kubaini wahusika wakuu kufanyika.

Makamu Mkuu huyo wa chuo aliutaja utaratibu wa kuwarejesha chuoni wanafunzi kuwa ni pamoja na wanafunzi wa mwaka wa tatu wa shahada ya kwanza kurejeshwa chuoni kwa ajili ya kufanya mitihani yao katika siku itakayotangazwa baada ya mamlaka ya nidhamu kufanya uchunguzi wa kina dhidi yao.
Alisema wanafunzi wa mwaka wa kwanza na wa pili ambao hawataonekana na makosa pia wataruhusiwa kurejea chuoni katika siku itakayotangazwa baada ya mamlaka ya nidhamu ya Udom kuwachunguza na kuwabaini wale ambao hawakuhusika katika maandamano hayo yanayodaiwa kuchagizwa na vyama vya upinzani.

Profesa kikula alisema mbali ya wanafunzi wa shahada za SNM na CoHSS, Kamati ya Utendaji ya Baraza la uongozi la Udom pia ilikiubaliana na pendekezo la kuwarejesha pia wanafunzi wa mwaka wa pili wa shahada ya kwanza ya uhusiano wa kimataifa (IR) waliofukuzwa Juni 14 lakini baada ya uchunguzi dhidi yao.

Kuhusu wanafunzi 24 wanaodaiwa kuwa vinara wa maandamano hayo kutoka SNM ambao wanadaiwa kuongoza mgomo wa kuingia darasani na kuwalazimisha wanafunzi wenzao wajiunge na mgomo na maandamano hayo, profesa alisema hatma yao itaamuliwa baada ya uchunguzi wa kina wa mamlaka ya nidhamu ya UDom.

Alisema hatma ya wanafunzi wa mwaka wa kwanza wote wanaochukua shahada ya kwanza ya Sayansi ya takwimu (Bsc Statistics) na 41 wanaochukua shahada ya kwanza ya sayansi katika hesabu (Bsc in mathematics) ambao waliandika barua na kuzisaini mara mbili kwa hiari yao nao waondoke chuoni kupinga wenzao kutimuliwa nayo pia itaamuliwa na mamlaka ya nidhamu ya udom baada ya uchunguzi wa kina kufanyika kupata adhabu inayowastahili.

Pia alisema wanafunzi 36 wa shahada ya kwanza ya sayansi ya hesabu (bsc. Mathematics) waliokataa kwa kuandika barua kushiriki katika mgomo na maandamano hayo licha ya kulazimishwa na wenzao Kamati ya Utendaji ya Baraza la uongozi la chuo imeamua hao waendelee na masomo yao.
Profesa alisema tarehe za wanafunzi watakaorejeshwa kurudi chuoni zitatangazwa na mamlaka mambo yatakapokuwa tayari lakini akaonya kuwa safari hii hawana mzaha kwani watakaobainika kujihusisha na maandamano hayo na kuwa vinara hawatarejeshwa kabisa chuoni ili iwe fundisho kwa wengine.

Alisedma hayo huku kukiwa na habari kuwa, wanafunzi waliogoma na kuandamana baadhi yao waliripotiwa kuwa kabla ya kutimuliwa, walikuwa wamekwenda mjini dodoma kuchukua mafuta ya petroli ili kuja k,ulipua majengo ya chuo kikuu hicho kwa lengo la kuitia hasara serikali iliyokijenga kwa mabilioni ya fedha.
Hatua ya kamati ya utendaji ya baraza la uongozi la chuo kutaka kuwarejesha wanafunzi wasio na hatia na pia kuwaadhibu waliokuwa vinara wa maandamano imechukuliwa siku chache baada ya wabunge kuiomba serikali iwasamehe na kuwarejesha chuoni kufuatia baadhi yao hasa wanafunzi wa kike kudaiwa kudhalilika baada ya kufukuzwa ghafla na kukosa mahali pa kwenda kujihifadhi na hivyo kujikuta wakizurula mitaa mbalimbali ya mji wa dodomausiku.
