What was thought could’ve been a close game ended via the 10-run as Japan defeated Tennessee 12-2 to win the 2012 Little League World Series.

Kotaro Kiyomiya led Japan from the mound, throwing four innings while only allowing one run—a home run to Tennessee’s Brock Myers. That was the only hit of the day off of Kiyomiya as he also struck out eight. Noriatsu Osaka allowed a home run to Lorenzo Butler in the fifth inning, but that was all that Tennessee could strike for.

Osaka was the MVP from the plate as he went 4-for-4 with three home runs, including a two-run walk-off home run in the bottom of the fifth inning.

Japan wins their eighth Little League World Series behind a perfect 5-0 record in Williamsport, Pa.

This isn’t your regular Z-Blog interview, instead we asked Bill a few questions and let him respond the best way he can – by writing a story his own way. Buckle up, this is a reading adventure.

Helping me from the very beginning was Zemanta. In seconds their program is linking similar topics and images to my current article. In doing so my readers stay longer on our blog. Having the Zemanta program installed on my site gives me a second set of hands. Over the years Zemanta has saved me so much time it is unbelievable. I love Zemanta!

Understanding the difference between National Weather Service watches and warnings is critical to being prepared for any dangerous weather hazard, including hurricanes.

A watch lets you know that weather conditions are favorable for a hazard to occur. It literally means \”be on guard!\” During a weather watch, gather awareness of the specific threat and prepare for action – monitor the weather to find out if severe weather conditions have deteriorated and discussed your protective action plans with your family.

Across the continent, there have been more tornado sightings than ever before so it is more important now than ever to pay attention to the tornado warning signs listed in this article.

Senator Michael Doherty (R-23) blasted comments by Fort Lee Mayor Mark Sokolich who was quoted in The Record as admitting he wanted to install red light cameras \”…yeah, for money reasons. There, I said it. These things generate income.\”

NEWARK – The New Jersey State Board of Medical Examiners, within the State Division of Consumer Affairs, has temporarily suspended the license of Dr. Philip B. May, who is under investigation by the New Jersey Department of Human Services for allegedly conducting unauthorized research on patients with intellectual disabilities at the Hunterdon Developmental Center.
\”The alleged abuse of patients with intellectual disabilities, by a physician who was in a position of authority, are deeply troubling, and the Board of Medical Examiners was correct to act when the charges were filed,\” Attorney General Jeffrey S. Chiesa said.

May does not practice medicine privately, but worked at the Hunterdon Development Center until he was suspended without pay on August 3, 2012. The Department of Human Services is seeking his removal. May’s lawyers told the Board of Medical Examiners that he is also the subject of a criminal investigation, related to the same matter.

\”By taking this immediate action, the Board of Medical Examiners has helped ensure that a doctor who is suspended by his current employer, will not be able to begin practicing elsewhere in New Jersey until the Board members reach a final decision on the allegations,\” Eric T. Kanefsky, Acting Director of the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs, said. \”We will continue to use all the tools available to ensure the public is safe from doctors who ignore their patients’ medical needs.\”

Under an Interim Consent Order with May, the Board noted that May voluntarily agreed to the temporary suspension of his medical license, and that the Board will adjourn any further disciplinary proceedings until the criminal investigation is resolved.

Consumers who believe they have been cheated or scammed by a business, or suspect any other form of consumer abuse, can file a complaint with the State Division of Consumer Affairs by visiting its website or by calling 1-800-242-5846 (toll free within New Jersey ) or 973-504-6200.
