| McLean's wife stays on the move, lawyer says
In affidavits filed in Knox County Fourth Circuit Court, Eric McLean and his divorce attorney, Steve Sharp, allege former West High School student teacher Erin McLean is embarked on a rootless existence with a 19-year-old paramour. "(Erin McLean) has been to California and then to Austin, Texas, staying in cheap motels and then moving when she is unable to pay the bills," Sharp wrote. Attorney Bruce Poston, who is defending Eric McLean on charges that he killed Sean Powell, his wife's teenage student and lover, in March, said Tuesday Erin McLean has since surfaced in Boulder, Colo. Sharp has been trying to serve Erin McLean with divorce papers since September to no avail in an effort to gain custody of the couple's sons, ages 11 and 8. It was then that Erin McLean fled her mother's Nashville home with the boys after news surfaced that she had lied to get a job as a teacher at a private Christian school and allegedly tried to seduce a 17-year-old student.
Kosovo Serb Protesters Attack UN Police
It is sending the picture of Serbia as bandits," said Miobor Stosic, 67, a retired airline official. "We are so ashamed."
Toma Rajcic, 40-year-old lawyer from Belgrade, was depressed over what happened.
"It is disgusting. It is all coming back, the fighting, darkness," he said. "It is disgusting. It's time to leave this country."
Pro-Western politicians in Serbia accused hard-line nationalists in the Kostunica's government of inciting the violence.
Parties of Tadic and Kostunica are united in a coalition government that has ruled Serbia since mid-2007. But the two differ sharply on Kosovo, with Tadic saying Belgrade must press on with efforts to join the EU regardless of Kosovo, and Kostunica seeking to drop the bid because most EU countries plan to recognize the province's independence.

The longevity of rechargeable digital camera batteries varies greatly, but camera battery life in general has improved over the past couple of years. Just about any digital camera with a dedicated battery or a decent set of AA rechargeables should get you through at least an average day of shooting. With dedicated lithium-ion batteries, you can consider it a rule of thumb that the smaller the cell, the shorter the life. If you buy a camera that takes AAs and doesn't come with rechargeables, you should purchase cells with the highest mAh rating you can find to get the longest life. To extend the shooting time of digital SLR cameras, manufacturers often sell compatible vertical grips that attach to the main body of the camera and hold an additional battery, as well as incorporating a second set of controls for vertically oriented shooting.

Today, as the profession shifts from negative and slide film to digital, we look at some of the leading visual artists of our time, from hard-bitten news photographers to up-and-coming artists. El-Ustaz At the old Akhbar El-Yom building, several walls swathed entirely in vivid pictures detailing Egypt's history welcome visitors to the photography department. Guarding the entrance is a small panel, a kind of shrine, the centerpiece of which is a portrait of chief photographer Mohamed Youssef, surrounded by smaller pictures of every single photographer who has followed him at the national newspaper empire. “He was the dean of photographers," says Farouk Ibrahim, manager of the photography department at Akhbar El-Yom, pointing out that Youssef was the first to break through colonial barriers, the first Egyptian to be trusted with managing a photography department's coverage of the nation at a daily national press outlet.
Scunthorpe 1 Saints 1 - Pearson happy with first point
The players have been a bit low on confidence and it was important to come here and try and be slightly more organised than Tuesday night. From that you have a foundation to build on. "I said to the players "don't get carried away, it's a point" but it's a difficult place to come, they're scrapping for their lives. "We're off to a start and we face a difficult end to the season and how we move on will give us a better picture of where we're at." .
