Question: US authorities have upgraded India's aviation safety rating, allowing Indian airlines to increase the number of flights they operate to the country.

Regulators say the Indian government has taken measures to address safety concerns previously flagged up.
In January 2014, the US Federal Aviation Administration had downgraded the rating following tests.
Concerns ranged from a lack of training for industry regulators to a shortage of flight inspectors.
That prevented carriers Jet Airways and state-owned Air India from increasing flights, and having to deal with extra surveillance for existing ones.
The upgrade comes at a time when there is more scrutiny on airline safety in the region.
In March, South Korea, Japan and China stopped Thailand-based airlines from flying charters and new routes after safety concerns were brought up during an international audit.
Analysis: Simon Atkinson, Editor, India Business Report
Routes to the US are vitally important to Air India and Jet Airways.
It's home to more than 1.5 million Indian Americans - many of who travel regularly.
And as the Modi and Obama governments promote stronger economic ties - that's lots of business class seats getting filled too.
More broadly - with India's domestic market so competitive (both Air India and Jet are loss-making) - international routes are an opportunity to claw back some of those losses.
So having the option to once again look at adding new destinations, and do deals with more US carriers, can only help that.

The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) found that Thailand did not comply with ICAO's safety standards.
Thailand's aviation authority told the BBC it was still formulating its response to the findings.
But the national flag-carrier Thai Airways said it would not be affected.
However, aviation experts said the safety downgrade would affect Thai carriers working as the main operator with a US airline under a code-share agreement, as Thai Airways does in some cases.
They also said the FAA's move would have a significant impact on some of Thailand's carriers if Europe followed suit with safety downgrades.
The FAA said its downgrade of the Thai Department of Civil Aviation (DCA) from a 'Category 1' to a 'Category 2' rating meant that Thailand either lacked the laws or regulations necessary to oversee air carriers in line with minimum international standards - or that it was deficient in one or more areas.
The regulator said those areas could include technical expertise, trained personnel, record-keeping, or inspection procedures.
The downgrade means Thailand's carriers will not be allowed to establish new services to the US.
Bangkok-based lawyer and aviation expert Alan Polivnick said the FAA was one of the most prominent civil aviation authorities in the world and that many of its counterparts would have no alternative but to consider the outcome of its recent findings.
"The FAA's downgrade is significant - and unfortunate," he told the BBC. "The Thai government has tried very hard to meet the standards required."
He also explained that the direct impact of the downgrade may appear to be limited to only those airlines serving the US - but that Europe would most likely weigh in before the end of the year with rulings against individual airlines flying into the EU.
Aviation specialist Ellis Taylor of Flightglobal said a move by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) against individual Thai airlines would have an impact on Thai Airways as well as Bangkok Airways.
"Should Europe turn around and place Thailand on its blacklist, that would have a much greater impact on Thai Airways, as it is quite reliant upon European traffic - and in turn so is much of the Thai tourism industry," Mr Taylor said.
"Bangkok Airways could also be affected, as it could jeopardise the interline relationships they have with European airlines, which it is reliant upon."
Individual airlines could be removed from that list, Mr Taylor explained, but said the process was "very opaque and essentially up to the European Commission's discretion."
However Mr Taylor said the FAA's action would be unlikely to affect the Thai carriers in the short term.
"The US isn't really a large market for them nowadays," he said.
"It will prevent them from expanding their code-shares with US carriers, such as Star Alliance partner United Airlines, but this is a relatively small market for them," he added.
The FAA said it had been in ongoing talks with Thailand's government but that discussions had concluded at the end of October.
Thai Airways said it would experience no commercial or customer impact following the FAA's findings as it had stopped its operations to Los Angeles - its only US destination - on 25 October.
The carrier has had to cut several other international routes this year as it continues to lose money in what is an increasingly competitive regional aviation industry.
The flag carrier said it would continue to serve its customers through its code-share and interline partners to USA destinations.
In June, Montreal-based ICAO 'red flagged' Thailand's aviation body for failing to solve problems  it had identified in March. Other countries red flagged by ICAO include Lebanon, Haiti and Botswana, among several others.
ICAO is a United Nations specialised agency. Its safety program is designed to ensure global standards for aviation safety and the civil aviation bodies of its member states.

The team from the Northern Ireland Environment Agency (NIEA) will visit premises in the Mallusk Industrial Estate, on the outskirts of Belfast.
They will take an inventory of any chemicals being stored by companies there.
The work is being done following recent fish kills in nearby rivers.
In September, hundreds of juvenile trout and salmon were killed by pollution in the Three Mile Water.
The previous month, a 150m stretch of the Sixmilewater was affected. The local angling club said 200 fish had been killed.
Environment Minister Mark H Durkan said: "This work programme will involve a team of NIEA staff visiting every premises within Mallusk Industrial Estate, closely inspecting each site for pollution risks, particularly storage and handling of oil and potential pollutants, and checking that each site is correctly connected to the public sewer network.
"Where any pollution risks are identified NIEA will ensure the site owner involved takes all necessary remedial action to remove that risk."
Last year, NIEA staff visited 150 businesses in the Mallusk Industrial Estate.

Question: A former chaplain to the Queen has quit the Church of England.

Represent the news article to find a single sentence that could be used as a summary

Gavin Ashenden resigned from his post with the Queen in January because he wanted to speak out in a row over Islam and the Scottish Episcopal Church.
In a post on social media he confirmed that he was leaving the Church of England, though his holy orders will remain valid.
On Twitter, he wrote: "The Church of England left me long before my legal dissolution".
The Rev Ashenden left his royal position in January so that he could openly criticise a decision to allow verses of the Koran to be read in St Mary's Cathedral in Glasgow.
He said the reading had caused "serious offence".
At the time he said he did not want the Queen drawn into public affairs.
The Church of England and the Scottish Episcopal Church are both members of the Anglican Communion.

Dr Jenkins died in Barnard Castle, County Durham, on Sunday morning. He had been living with Alzheimer's disease for many years.
The cleric and theologian was Bishop of Durham from 1984 until 1994.
He was dubbed the "unbelieving bishop" after saying he did not believe God would have arranged a virgin birth and the resurrection.
After retiring he took on the post of honorary assistant bishop in Ripon and Leeds.
Before becoming a bishop, Dr Jenkins was a professor of theology at the University of Leeds, and spent 15 years prior to that as a fellow and chaplain of Queen's College, Oxford.
York Minster was struck by lightning and burst into flames just days after his consecration in 1984.
The events led some to believe that the fire was a sign of divine wrath in outrage at his appointment as bishop.
Dr Jenkins was satirised in television puppet show Spitting Image, being depicted in one episode persuading God to become an atheist.
He served in Durham during the miners' strike in the 1980s and often joined the miners on marches.
He was an open critic of then Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher's policies and she was said to have thought of Dr Jenkins as a "cuckoo in the establishment nest".
The bishop, who was born in Bromley in south London, went on to write Market Whys And Human Wherefores: Thinking Again About Markets, Politics, And People about the deficiencies of economic theory.
He leaves behind four children. A funeral will be held at Durham Cathedral at a later date, his family said.

Question: Middlesbrough manager Aitor Karanka believes Tuesday's match against Rotherham could be their "most difficult" in the run-in.

Boro sit second in the Championship, behind Burnley, and could go top if they beat the Millers.
"I think it could be the most difficult game we have between now and the end of the season," Karanka told BBC Tees.
"It is the game where everybody thinks that we have three points in our pockets - it's a big mistake."
Rotherham sit 22nd, three points adrift of MK Dons and safety, but with back-to-back wins against Sheffield Wednesday and Brentford.
"Rotherham have won their last two games so for me now they are a different team," the 42-year old Spaniard continued.
"With their new manager [Neil Warnock], the team has character and the team is motivated now.
"They are playing at home and they are playing for their lives to stay in the Championship next season.
"So for me the biggest mistake is to believe it is going to be an easy game - for me it could be the most difficult game."
Prior to Warnock's arrival, Rotherham had lost eight of their last 12 league matches and Karanka says their turnaround in form is no accident.
Karanka added: "Sheffield are not at the top of the table but they are fighting for their play-off positions, they have a really good squad and Rotherham beat them away.
"They beat Sheffield, they beat Brentford a couple of days before - it is not a coincidence. It is because they are more motivated."

Burnley, Middlesbrough and Brighton enter the penultimate round of Championship fixtures level on 87 points, with only goal difference narrowly separating the trio.
Throw in the prospect of a possible final-day decider between Boro and Brighton, and it promises to be one of the most tense finishes to a second-tier season in recent memory.
BBC Sport analyses the three contenders for automatic promotion, which will be worth a minimum of £99m to the two successful clubs next season.
Remaining fixtures: QPR (h) 2 May, Charlton (a) 7 May
The season in short: Clubs often struggle after relegation from the Premier League, but Sean Dyche has assembled a squad on the verge of returning to the top flight at the first attempt.
Danny Ings left for Liverpool but his replacement, Andre Gray, has scored 22 goals and won the Championship player for the year award, while Joey Barton has added industry to their midfield.
Since entering the top six in the middle of September, the Clarets have not dropped out of the play-off places and are currently on a 21-match unbeaten run in the league (14 wins and seven draws).
Burnley manager Sean Dyche: "We had three games last week and we controlled that well, physically. Nothing's done, but the win at Preston was a big step forward again.
"I've said all along, we focus on our own business. Everyone else can worry about everyone else's business, we just focus on our own."
View from the commentary box - Phil Cunliffe, BBC Radio Lancashire: "I can't see Burnley slipping up, especially as they play already-relegated Charlton in their final fixture.
"Barton's boundless energy from central midfield is the envy of many an opponent 10 years his junior. 'Will and demand' is one of Dyche's stock phrases, and Barton embodies that.
"I expect Gray to add to his 22 goals, but it says a lot about Burnley's strengths that the Football League and Championship Player of the Year is not guaranteed to win the club's own Player of the Year award."
Remaining fixtures: Birmingham (a) 29 April, Brighton (h) 7 May
The season in short: Having lost 2-0 to Norwich in last season's play-off final, Middlesbrough spent big money improving their attacking options to get into the top two places this time round.
A combined £7m was spent on forwards Cristhian Stuani and David Nugent, winger Stewart Downing returned to Teesside in a £5.5m deal, while striker Jordan Rhodes arrived in the January transfer window for an initial £9m.
But it has been Boro's defence which has impressed the most this season, with Aitor Karanka's side conceding a mere 28 league goals - five fewer than any other team in the Championship.
Karanka was reported to be considering his future in March after a training ground row, but the Teesiders are unbeaten in eight games since it was confirmed the Spaniard was staying.
Middlesbrough head coach Aitor Karanka: "We are in an amazing position - I can't understand who could be pessimistic when we are almost at the top of the table.
"Two years ago we were playing to stay in the Championship. Now some people think to be in this position is a negative thing - I can't understand. Everybody has to be pleased with this team and these players."
View from the commentary box - Paul Addison, BBC Tees: "Middlesbrough never make it easy for themselves - it's just not part of the deal.
"Boro remain in a terrific position as the race for the Premier League goes down to the wire, but Burnley and Brighton keep on grinding out the results.
"Last season's play-off heartache is fresh in the minds of the Boro faithful, and a lot of fans I've spoken to fear a repeat of it if they miss out on a place in the top two.
"But the fact remains that if they win their last two they're up - and that's got to be the aim."
Remaining fixtures: Derby (h) 2 May, Middlesbrough (a) 7 May
The season in short: After a relegation battle last season, Brighton started the campaign with a 21-match unbeaten run (11 wins and 10 draws) which laid the platform for their promotion challenge.
Their first defeat, at home by Middlesbrough in December, prompted a five-game run without a victory but Chris Hughton's Seagulls have rallied since then, losing just once since the start of February.
Victories were recorded by narrow margins in the first half of the campaign but mid-season signings Anthony Knockaert and Jiri Skalak have proved crucial during the run-in, helping Brighton significantly improve their goal difference.
Brighton midfielder Beram Kayal: "I have won the league with Maccabi Haifa in Israel and Celtic in Scotland. This is the first time I have been in this situation.
"They told me 87 points would get you promotion from this league. This league is crazy. With the team spirit and confidence we have, I think we can do it."
View from the commentary box - Johnny Cantor, BBC Sussex: "Most Albion fans would have taken a play-off place at the beginning of the season but, with the current form, they are now sensing a top-two finish.
"It has been an emotional campaign for Seagulls fans and players after the Shoreham air crash last August, in which a member of the club's ground staff died, but that day seems to have strengthened their resolve.
"They have suffered the pain of missing out via the play-offs twice in the past three seasons, but know they can avoid a repeat of the post-season drama with two wins.
"It is a tough ask against two top sides but it remains in their own hands."

Question: When you think about film locations, the first places that come to mind might include glamorous Los Angeles or the gritty East End in London.

This is part of a news article. Represent it to retrieve the first (missing) sentence of the article

Stoke-on-Trent might not feature at the top of that list. And unfairly so, its council leaders would say.
"Stoke has so much to offer film directors," said Mark Meredith, the city council's cabinet member for economic development.
"This is where the industrial revolution started - we have lots of amazing industrial buildings which would provide great backdrops and the canal network.
"But we also have a lot of green space too - more proportionally than most other cities.
"We have a creative past with the ceramic industry and we want to keep that creative tradition going."
With regards to the city's, perhaps, not-so glamorous reputation, Mr Meredith said they "should not be afraid of showing Stoke, warts and all".
"Like Trainspotting - that didn't show Edinburgh's best bits, but it didn't stop anyone going there," he added.
The city's leaders have now signed a "film-friendly" charter with Creative England to make it easier for production companies to come to the city.
It would mean that closing roads and other potential issues could be fast-tracked by the council and directors do not find themselves wading through bureaucracy.
By early next year, it is also hoped the Stoke Film Office will be set up to help deal with any film-making inquiries the city gets and Mr Meredith said they had already seen some interest from production companies.
Stephen Badham, from Creative England, said many other cities had been taking advantage of the fact many parts of London were not accessible for production companies in 2012 because of the Olympics.
"We find more and more interest in moving out of London, where it's not so busy and the costs aren't so high," he said.
"Stoke has the great advantage of how accessible it is, and with more and more production companies based in Manchester, Salford and Leeds, it's a great place to get to from the North.
"But this isn't just about promoting the city to directors across the rest of the country and abroad - it's about encouraging homegrown talent too."
But some of Stoke's residents seemed less convinced.
"I can't see Guy Ritchie walking 'round Hanley any time soon," said Matthew Burton, from Dresden, in the city.
"No, Stoke's not renowned for its splendour," added his friend John Lowe, from Shelton.
"It'd do for films where you need bleak empty factories, but really the council should be ploughing more money into the city before showing it off to other people."
However, Linda Neale, from Fenton, said the city had a lot of heritage to be proud of.
"There's Trentham Gardens and Middleport Pottery, and they would both be good for period films and TV programmes," she said.
"But I don't know where all the directors and people would stay, except the Â£29-a-night hotel in Trentham."
Film maker Chris Stone was born in Stoke and has remained based in the city ever since because, he said, it made such a good location for shooting.
"I've shot everything - from things set in World War I and World War II to the Roman times and also a vampire series set in gothic Victorian times - and I've never had a problem with finding the right location," he said.
"It's brilliant.
"When I've gone over to the US, our stuff has always had a really positive reaction and people across the world are starting to realise there's more to Britain than London. I don't think you'd have trouble encouraging more people to come to Stoke to film."
Mike Rawlins, who runs the Pits 'n' Pots website about Stoke, said there had been a history of the city having a starring role in the past.
"It was used for Soul Boy, a film from a couple of years ago," he said.
"Stoke pretty much got the gig because the film was set in the 1970s, and Stoke's stuck in the 1970s.
"Seriously though, Stoke has some great examples of 1970s buildings, and that can play to its advantage.
"But if we can bring money into the city by exploiting those things, that's no bad thing."
He added that one of the city's six towns, Longton, had featured prominently in the 1957 Peter Sellers film The Smallest Show On Earth, while the Gladstone Pottery Museum was used in the 1986 Dr Who serial The Ultimate Foe.
Council leaders said they hoped word would spread of what Stoke had to offer.
"Of course, it's early days," added Mr Meredith. "But if Hollywood comes asking, we're not going to say no."

Anyone who happened to peer through the railings of Doncaster Racecourse last week would have been met with a surreal sight.
India's 1936 Olympic hockey team were greeted by a cheering crowd as they climbed off a vintage coach, before Nazi officers viciously beat a couple of their overenthusiastic fans.
Behind them, giant swastika banners were draped from the racecourse's historic Clock Tower Stand.
But this was just a film set, and Doncaster Racecourse was doubling as Berlin's 1936 Olympic Stadium. It will appear in Gold, an epic new Bollywood movie that tells the story of India's Olympic hockey players in 1936 and 1948.
One of the actors in Doncaster was Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar, who is above the likes of Tom Hanks, Ryan Gosling and Ryan Reynolds on Forbes magazine's latest list of the world's best-paid actors.
"I rank him in the top five actors in Bollywood," says Suhail Al Belushi, from Leeds, who is one of more than 5,000 local extras in the film.
Mr Al Belushi has taken time out of his day job as a freelance interpreter to appear in the film after seeing Akshay Kumar walk into a hotel in Leeds.
"When I saw him I was shocked," he says. "I thought maybe there's a guy who looks like him. If it was India there would be crowds everywhere, heckling him, following him, wanting photos."
Among the other locations being used, Bradford's Midland Hotel, Harrogate's Old Swan Hotel and Leicester's Grand Hotel are all standing in for different parts of the Bombay Club in colonial Mumbai.
Rotherham FC's old Millmoor stadium doubles as an Indian hockey pitch. Dalton Mills in Keighley is a German army camp. The homes of Bradford Bulls, Leeds Rhinos and York City FC have all had a sprinkle of Bollywood stardust.
"I came here because I liked the locations," director Reema Kagti says.
"For this film, because it's a period film, I needed architecture that's been maintained. Architecture that existed before the '30s and has been maintained till date, and Yorkshire seems to have a lot of that. They really seem to respect their heritage and look after it."
The UK has become the destination of choice for many global film-makers, with talent from both Hollywood and Bollywood making it their home from home.
Movie production in the UK has grown 72% since 2014, the Office for National Statistics has reported.
Last year, £1.3bn was spent by foreign film-makers in Britain, according to the British Film Institute (BFI) - double the figure in 2012.
Most of that came from Hollywood blockbusters like Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Transformers: The Last Knight and The Mummy.
But there's a growing trend for Bollywood films to be shot in the UK too.
Source: BFI
There are a few reasons behind Britain's allure for overseas film-makers - tax breaks, the weak pound making it cheaper to film here, a readily available pool of skilled crew, plus the historic locations.
There are other attractions, too, for Reema Kagti. She has developed a taste for local beers. "If I do get any time out, I do go to a pub and drink some ale," she smiles.
Sue Bellarby has worked on 26 Bollywood film sets in the UK, including Gold, where she is unit manager.
"When I started in 2005 there was maybe one a year," she says. "Now we're getting five or six.
"There are three shooting in the north at the moment. There are another two coming in September/October."
In the past, Bollywood film-makers might have recreated British castles or stately homes in state-of-the-art studios in India - but now they are increasingly using the real thing, she says.
"They love the authenticity of shooting here. And I know they get some form of tax incentive. My experience of them is it's as cheap to film here as it is in India now, and they can actually film the locations for real."
And they are increasingly going outside London. Yorkshire and Humber had the fastest-growing film and TV industries in the country between 2009-15, according to Screen Yorkshire, an agency that has been crucial to the area's success.
Gold's location manager Martin Walker says it is becoming more difficult and expensive to film in London. "The costs are becoming prohibitive," he says.
"Unit bases - spaces big enough to get all your big facilities and trucks in - are becoming fewer and fewer as they get developed on or sold out from underneath us, and some of us London-based location managers do worry about how viable London will be in the future as a place to shoot if you cannot physically service your shoot by having your vehicles close by."
Getting out of London has other advantages. "You've got your hotel costs which are half price, you've got great transport links, and you've actually got a population who still finds filming interesting and fun and fascinating and are helpful," he explains.
"Unfortunately London has gone the other way. 'Oh, filming again? Right, £50 before I move my car.'"
Kate Smith, a Manchester-based hair and make-up artist, adds: "It is definitely becoming a lot busier up north - the north west, Wales, Yorkshire.
"It used to be at one time that you'd have to live in London to be able to get the work, and you'd move the crew to wherever it was going. But now, the Isle of Man, Ireland, Scotland - it's all booming everywhere."
Bradford - which became the first Unesco City of Film in 2009 - has been the Gold production team's base as well as providing a number of filming locations.
David Wilson, director of Bradford City of Film, says more than 100 films and TV shows have been shot in the city in the last 12 months. That's double the number in 2012, when he reopened the city's film office.
"It's given the city a renewed confidence," he says. "The phone in the film office rings off the walls some days. Every week there's a significant enquiry.
"Sometimes they don't come to fruition but more often than not they do, and we've now gained a reputation as a film-friendly city, and we're reaping the rewards of that."
The money spent on crew and suppliers - from trucks to catering - all makes its way into the local and national economy. And after release, locations often see an increase in tourism, Mr Wilson says.
"You've got the initial production phase, but that also leads to people thinking, do you know what, we might go there. We might go to Yorkshire. It looked brilliant in that film. And so it does dovetail very much into that whole tourism offer."
So perhaps, a year from now, when Gold is released, there could be another surreal sight at Doncaster Racecourse if Indian movie fans are climbing off coaches to see where the movie was shot.
Gold will be released on 15 August 2018.

Question: Scotland national team manager Gordon Strachan has congratulated island pupils following their success in a Scottish schools football competition.

Teams from the Nicolson Institute in Stornoway, Lewis, reached five finals in the North of Scotland Cup and won four of them.
The senior girls category of the competition was won by the secondary school for the sixth year running.
Strachan has visited the school to meet the pupils and their teachers.
The tournament is open to all secondary schools in the north of Scotland, which includes the Highlands and Northern Isles.
Teams from the Nicolson Institute won the senior and junior girls trophies and also the senior and under 14 boys finals.
The under 13 boys were also in the final of their age group.
Catriona Stewart, chairwoman of education and children's services at the islands' local authority Comhairle nan Eilean Siar, said: "Despite living on an island, our pupils have proven that they can be successful at national level through sheer diligence and determination despite not having access to as many facilities as mainland youngsters may have.
"The Nicolson Institute football teams have done themselves proud for a number of years now, but this year has been a particularly remarkable year."
The councillor added: "It is testament to the hard work of all the pupils, coaches and parents who support them that the Scotland national team manager felt it appropriate to come and congratulate them here today.
"Who knows - maybe we will see some of our youngsters play for the national team in years to come."

Question: A tearful Angelina Jolie has been honoured at the Sarajevo Film Festival for her acting and "active engagement in the complexities of the real world".

Jolie, whose directorial debut is set in Bosnia's 1992 to 1995 war, received a standing ovation as she picked up the honorary Heart of Sarajevo award.
"I told Brad in the car I was afraid I was going to cry," she said.
She presented the festival's best actor award to Thomas Schubert who starred in Atman, also named best film.
Romanian leading lady Ada Condeescu won best actress for her role in Loverboy.
Jolie, 36, who was at the 17th Sarajevo Film Festival with boyfriend Brad Pitt, visited Bosnia several times last year as a goodwill ambassador for the UN's refugee agency.
She said she was "so honoured to be here".
"There is no greater example of the strengths of the artists and the festival that began during the war and grew stronger every year," she added.
The festival began as an act of resistance in 1995 with residents braving mortar shells to gather in a basement to watch Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction.
Some scenes from Jolie's film In the Land of Blood and Honey - due for release in December - were shot in Bosnia while others were shot in Hungary.
The film, which stars Zana Marjanovic and Rade Serbedzija, tells the story of a love affair between a Bosnian Muslim woman and a Serb, on opposite sides of the conflict.
The licence to film in Sarajevo was at one point revoked following local rumours that the film featured a rape victim who falls in love with her assailant.
The licence was given back when producers proved the rumour was not true.
At the time, Jolie asked people to "hold judgement until they have seen the film".
"There are many twists in the plot that address the sensitive nature of the relationship between the main characters and that will be revealed once the film is released," she said.
On her visits to Bosnia for the UN last year, Jolie drew attention to the thousands of people who have been unable to return to their homes despite the war ending 16 years ago.

The LSE said the course will be run by its Centre for Women, Peace and Security, launched last year by Ms Jolie and Lord Hague.
The pair co-founded a global initiative to tackle sexual violence in conflict zones in 2012.
It followed a 2011 film Ms Jolie directed depicting the Bosnian war.
Her directorial debut, In the Land of Blood and Honey, was set against the backdrop of the 1992-95 Bosnian war in which an estimated 20,000 women were believed to have been raped.
"It is vital that we broaden the discussion on how to advance women's rights and end impunity for crimes that disproportionately affect women, such as sexual violence in conflict," Ms Jolie, a special envoy for the UN refugee agency, said.
"I am looking forward to teaching and to learning from the students, as well as to sharing my own experiences of working alongside governments and the UN."
The former Foreign Secretary Lord Hague will also be joining LSE as a visiting professor.

Question: The body responsible for amateur boxing in Wales is "not fit for purpose" and "does not qualify for public funding", an independent audit report says.

Represent the news article to find a single sentence that could be used as a summary!

The Welsh Amateur Boxing Association (WABA) says the audit found no evidence of fraudulent activity,
But its chairman said it would take all the steps recommended to put things right.
Sports Wales said it would continue funding the association, but it had put special measures in place.
The report into the activities of the Welsh Amateur Boxing Association (WABA) was commissioned by the association, alongside the Welsh government and Sports Wales which oversees and promotes sport and advises the government.
The audit was carried out by accountancy firm, KTS Owens Thomas.
In their report, which has been published in a redacted form on WABA's website, the auditors said: "It is our view that in its current state WABA is not fit for purpose and does not qualify to receive public money.
"Sport Wales must consider the implications of this finding.
"We consider that with the implementation of the recommendations set out in this report, WABA will become fit for purpose and qualify to receive public money."
In 2012, WABA received grant support from Sports Wales of just over Â£190,000 - more than double its Â£89,000 grant in 2006.
The audit report lists a series of financial concerns:
The report also raises issues over the way the association has been run since becoming a limited company in 2003.
It noted: "Some members have expressed concern that WABA is not open to constructive challenge and there appears to be divisions in the membership.
"Overall, we have found corporate governance to be poor and dysfunctional. We consider that it is improving, but has not reached an acceptable level."
The auditors make 38 recommendations for the sporting body's future, including measures to tighten financial controls, banking systems, and expenses management.
Their report also calls on the board to "improve the culture at WABA", and to work with Sports Wales to ensure it follows an action plan to implement the recommendations.
'Simply not acceptable'
Responding to the report, WABA chairman Terry Smith told BBC Wales: "Obviously we are very disappointed, but we will take all the steps recommended to put things right as quickly as possible."
He said much of the organisation was run by unpaid volunteers who did not have formal financial training.
But he disputed some of the report's findings, including the issue of unsupported spending.
Sports Wales said WABA's failures were "simply not acceptable".
Chief executive, Sarah Powell, said an action plan was now in place to resolve the issues at WABA.
She added: "In the best interests of the sport's grass-roots participants and elite competitors, Sport Wales has decided to continue funding WABA, but has put in place special measures to protect public funds, until such time as satisfactory progress has been made on the recommendations."

Adele Baumgardt was sacked alongside chairman of the troubled quango Paul Thomas on Wednesday.
Ms Baumgardt, who had worked for Sport Wales for more than 10 years, said Mr Thomas was not fit for the job - an allegation he denies
The Welsh Government said there were "lessons to be learned".
In November, the Welsh Government suspended the entire Sport Wales board, over concerns the organisation was dysfunctional.
On Wednesday Public Health Minister Rebecca Evans sacked Mr Thomas and Ms Baumgardt saying there had been "an irretrievable breakdown in relationships" in the board's leadership.
Speaking to BBC's Good Morning Wales programme, Ms Baumgardt said the board had been "well governed, managed and led" and would go from "strength to strength" under new leadership.
She claimed Sport Wales had been one of the most successful public organisations in Wales until the appointment of Mr Thomas in April 2016.
"To have ended up in this situation, I think serious questions need to be asked about how the process works with public appointments," said Ms Baumgardt.
"This is a really strong organisation with a strong board."
Ms Baumgardt, who worked at the organisation for more than 10 years, repeated claims that Mr Thomas was not fit for the job, an accusation Mr Thomas has rejected.
She insisted there was no evidence she had done anything wrong and there was no reason why she should have been sacked.
Mr Thomas has accused the Welsh Government of being "appalling" in its dealings with him, saying he had not been given the support he needed to change the organisation,
Sport Wales, originally called the Sports Council for Wales, was created in 1972 to promote elite and grassroots sport. It has an annual budget of Â£22m.
Over the last six months it has become embroiled in a series of rows over the operation of the board and the way it awards contracts.
A review of Sport Wales, by the Welsh Government, has been completed, but has not been released to the public.
A Welsh Government spokesman said a review examining Mr Thomas' appointment confirmed the proper process had been followed.
"The appointment process complied fully with the principles of merit, fairness and openness," he said.
"There are lessons to be learned from the situation that arose and what is required of individuals being appointed to a public leadership role."

Question: Almost a quarter of Scottish children who contacted Childline about bullying in the past year were concerned with online abuse, new figures show.

The charity said 201 of the 873 counselling sessions it arranged were connected to cyber bullying.
Children as young as seven told Childline counsellors they were being tormented by malicious and hurtful messages.
Across the UK, the charity counselled 4,541 children about online bullying.
That 2015/2016 figure represented an 88% increase from 2,410 in 2011/12.
The findings, released at the start of Anti-Bullying Week, showed that in a quarter of counselling sessions children and young people across the UK were also counselled for a mental health and wellbeing issue, including low self-esteem, self-harm, suicidal thoughts and depression.
The comments posted on their social media profiles, blogs and online pictures ranged from bullying and abusive words about how a young person looked to death threats and, in the most extreme cases, directly telling them to go and kill themselves.
Matt Forde, national head of service for NSPCC Scotland, said: "Online bullying is one of the biggest child protection challenges of this generation.
"It is a problem intensified by the ever-increasing presence of the internet.
"Years ago a child could escape their bullies when they left the playground and get some respite in the safety of their home. Now the 24/7 nature of the internet means that a child can be targeted around the clock.
"Bullying, regardless of whether it occurs online or in person, can have a devastating impact on a young person, affecting their self-worth, leave them feeling isolated and potentially being a trigger for depression.
"In the worst-case scenarios, bullying has driven children and young people to self-harm and even suicide."
In nearly a third (31%) of counselling sessions for online bullying, children and young people talked about a gaming or social networking site as the platform for their abuse and humiliation.
The NSPCC, which is currently working with the Royal Foundation Cyber-bullying Taskforce to develop new tools for children and young people, has also created a dedicated area about online bullying for the Childline website.
On the site, young people can share their experiences and offer support to their peers through message boards.
Last year there were more than 11,000 posts about online bullying.
Childline president Dame Esther Rantzen said: "Bullying can wreck young people's lives, especially now that the bullies don't stop at the school gates.
"It is imperative that adults, parents and teachers intervene to protect them, because we have learned over the years from Childline callers that bullying does not stop on its own, left alone it gets worse."

The posters in Arabic, Urdu, Bengali and Somali will appear in 32 practices in the city after the charity started receiving calls from worried adults.
NSPCC's ChildLine volunteers in Wales held 60 counselling sessions related to fears of terrorism between November 2015 and July this year.
The new helpline will provide advice.
Across the UK, the posters will appear in 1,000 surgeries and aim to reach six million people a month.
In Wales, the posters which will only be displayed in Cardiff, will also be written in Welsh and will appear in waiting rooms to let people know about the service - set up after a spate of terrorist attacks and the growing problem of extremists targeting children.
NSPCC counsellors have been trained to spot the warning signs of radicalisation so they can advise adults who are worried about a child being groomed.
It comes after volunteers for Welsh Childline, the NSPCC's counselling service for children, said it had dealt with a number of calls and online enquiries from children who had been bullied as a result of terrorist activity elsewhere.
Many said they felt judged on how they looked and were discriminated against because of the faith they followed. Some also said they felt "depressed" and "isolated" as a result of the bullying.
Signs which hint at a child being radicalised include:
Source: NSPCC
Des Mannion, head of NSPCC Wales, said parents would be given advice on how to cope with "this fresh danger to young people".
"We have seen a wave of terrorist attacks in recent weeks and months and both parents and children tell us how frightened they are by what is happening," he said.
"The number of calls received by ChildLine only adds to the feelings of fear and sadness that these evil attacks have prompted all over the world.
"It is vital that we are able to provide parents with non-judgemental advice on issues ranging from the wider terrorist threat to the dangers of radicalisation."
In January, schools in Wales were urged to look out for signs of pupils being radicalised by extremist groups in updated guidance released by the Welsh Government.

Question: Former England footballer Paul Gascoigne has been admitted to a treatment centre in the US.

this is part of a news article. represent it to retrieve the first (missing) sentence of the article

The 45-year-old has willingly gone to an unnamed centre, his management company confirmed.
The former Newcastle United, Tottenham Hotspur and Lazio player has battled with alcoholism since giving up football.
A recent appearance at a charity event, when he broke down sobbing on stage, sparked widespread concern.
In a statement, GamePlan Solutions said that Paul Gascoigne was an alcoholic with "complex issues", which were being dealt with by professionals.
It added: "Paul has been extremely touched and overwhelmed by the generous offers of help and support over the past few days.
"He is motivated to fully understand and control his addiction problem under guidance."
Gascoigne's drinking problems started during his playing days - he was admitted to the Priory Hospital, near Southampton, in 1998, shortly after his divorce from wife Sheryl.
Three years later, whilst playing at Everton, Gascoigne admitted himself to an alcohol rehabilitation clinic in Arizona on the insistence of his then manager Walter Smith.
In 2008, four years after retiring he was arrested in Newcastle and detained under the Mental Health Act.
He was later sectioned following reports that he was acting strangely in Hemel Hempstead.
More recently he has been treated at The Priory again and at the Providence Projects treatment centre in Bournemouth.

Mark van Dongen, 29, a Dutch national, lost a leg, an eye and movement from the neck down after suffering 80% burns when he was attacked in Bristol in September 2015.
He died in Belgium on 2 January.
Berlinah Wallace, 47, of Ladysmith Road, Westbury Park, Bristol, appeared at Bristol Crown Court and has been remanded in custody until 27 March.
She was previously charged with throwing/casting a corrosive fluid with intent, but the charge was changed to murder during the court hearing, Avon and Somerset Police said.
Mr van Dongen was from the Netherlands but had been working in Bristol as a civil engineer.
He was injured on Ladysmith Road and spent two months in intensive care at Southmead Hospital before being moved to its burns centre.
Friends of his family eventually raised money for a private ambulance to take him to a hospital in Belgium, where his father lives, in November 2016.

Question: It is 50 years since Dolly Parton first entered the US charts, with a cover of The Tune Weavers' Happy, Happy Birthday Baby.

The lovelorn ballad only reached number 108, but it set the "dirt poor" Tennessee singer on the path to fame.
Since then, she's sold more than 100 million albums, topped the country chart 25 times, and won eight Grammy Awards - but she shows no signs of slowing down.
"Almost every day I come up with a few song titles or a sweet melody," says the 70-year-old, who claims to have written more than 3,000 songs in her career.
Her latest album, Pure & Simple, came out on Friday, featuring new songs with stripped-down arrangements that recall the early days of her career.
It has an overwhelmingly romantic theme, inspired by renewing her wedding vows earlier this year. And just like her chart career, her marriage to Carl Dean turned 50 this year.
"I thought, well, this would be a good year to write an album of love songs," she says. "I've never done that before. I've usually had a story song or a gospel song, but this was all love stories."
The BBC caught up with the star to discuss the new record, her legendary Glastonbury set, and why she admires Adele.
First of all, congratulations on celebrating your golden wedding anniversary!
Thank you so much. That's a long time to do anything, ain't it? Especially to be married.
What's the secret?
We've always been good buddies. We have a lot of fun and a lot of respect for one another. It was his first marriage and mine and we never thought we'd ever want to do that again. Why bother?
You renewed your vows earlier this year. What was that like?
That was sweet. There was no pressure at all. We had our own little ceremony in a little chapel on our property, then we went in our little RV down to Ringgold, Georgia, and spent the night where we had married 50 years before. We took some beautiful pictures and got all dressed up. It was fun really.
Did you wear your original wedding dress? Could you still fit into it?
Well, I could but I don't know where it is now! I only had a simple little white dress that my mother had made for me for that wedding, but I had always wanted a beautiful, long, beaded wedding gown, so I dressed completely to the nines. I made a right nice bride!
That sense of romance permeates your new album.
Oh yes! In fact a lot of the songs were written just because of that.
You've written so many love songs over the years - how do you find new ways to talk about it?
Love is always growing, and we grow as people as well, so you just automatically take on new twists and turns. And it's amazing. I've always been amazed by that myself, how people can just write, year in and year out, about love and it all is different. I could write one right now!
How often do you write?
I write something almost every single day unless I'm sick or on a movie set.
Is that ever an inconvenience? Do you ever find yourself going, "I don't have time to write a song right now, I need to finish this casserole?"
Well, no! In fact, I write a lot when I cook. If my cooking's really good that day, my songs are really good.
In Head Over High Heels, you sing about "painting my eyes like Adele." What made you write about her?
Everyone loves Adele. With all my little nieces, it's all "Adele this" and "Adele that!" And I love how she does her make-up, and so I'm always saying to my little nieces, "can you fix my eyes like Adele?"
When I started that song, I had not planned to write that line. I was just thinking, "This needs to be about a girl dressing up sexy, so she's got to have some make-up, and she's got to paint her eyes". And all of a sudden it's like, "And my eyes like Adele!"
What do you think her reaction will be?
I think she'll have to be complimented, just like I'm always complimented when people write songs about me!
I just meant I wanted to look like Adele. I hope she thinks it's cute.
You both like to talk to your audience in between songs, but she swears a lot more than youâ€¦ I wondered what you made of that?
Oh, I don't pay any attention to that! Words are just an exchange, like money. I don't think the Lord holds that against us. I think that's just the way we communicate. And some people are just born cussers.
What's the worst thing you've ever said on stage?
Oh, I've never said anything real bad. I try to respect the audience.
The song I'm 16 is based on one of your sisters, is that right?
Yeah, she had a couple of bad relationships and she thought it wasn't meant for her to have true love. Then all of a sudden, in her 60s, she met someone and they fell in love, and it's just like they were born again. It's just the sweetest thing.
Another one of my sisters and I were laughing. We said, "Look at her, she thinks she's 16!" and all of a sudden I heard the song in my head.
Goes to show you're never old unless you choose to be.
What age do you think of yourself as?
I'm 16 in some ways. I'm still a hopeless romantic! But I'm 35 in my spirit and in my mind. When I was 35, it was a pinnacle, a great time in my life - success and happiness and all that. And so I just decided "I'm gonna claim that number and always be that in my state of mind."
What inspired Can't Be That Wrong?
That was an easy one to write. I think it's the ultimate cheating song.
I based it on someone very, very close to me, who was very much in love with the person at home, and their children, and they weren't looking for love, they just happened to fall for someone. They were so torn, because they loved both people. I saw the turmoil and the heartache, and how overwhelming and overpowering it was. And I just thought, "That's a strong-ass love, right there". You know, to be willing to go through all you have to, and put the other people through that. So I thought, "wow, this would make a great song."
The last time I saw you on stage in the UK was at Glastonbury - and you've put that concert on this album as a bonus disc. What are your memories of it?
That'll be one of my greatest memories, actually. That'll be a real highlight in my career.
I wasn't even certain about doing that show, because I didn't know if I was the type of artist that would fit in that type of a festival - because people are rowdy, they like to go dancing, and they like to drink and smoke and I thought, "I wonder if they're even going to pay attention?"
And so, as soon as I went out and I saw the crowd and heard the roar, I thought, "Ohhhh, my Lord, how did I miss this all these years?"
They call that part of the day the "legends slot". If you were booking next year's Glastonbury, who would you put in there?
I don't know. I hadn't even thought about it in those terms. Probably Adele.
But I'm not sure I'd do it again, because I don't know how I could ever top that.

Montgomery and Holly teamed up at Hutchinson Junior High School in Lubbock, Texas in 1949, performing at school concerts and radio contests.
But it was Holly who was spotted as a potential star, leaving Montgomery to concentrate on songwriting.
Among the hits he wrote for his friend were Heartbeat and Wishing.
Heartbeat was a bigger hit in the UK than in the US, where it only reached number 82 on its initial release. It has been covered by a number of artists including Cilla Black, Hank Marvin and Nick Berry.
He also wrote the country music standard Misty Blue, which was originally performed by Wilma Burgess and later by Eddy Arnold, who made it a crossover hit.
In the late 1960s, Montgomery set up the House of Gold Music publishing company in Nashville, which helped the careers of Dolly Parton, Kenny Rogers and The Judds.
His publicist, Greg Matusky, said he died on 4 December in Lee's Summit, Missouri, after suffering from Parkinson's Disease.

Question: If you get into a taxi in Plymouth and the voice behind the wheel has a Scouse accent, there's a good chance you are in the presence of greatness.

Tommy Tynan, now transporting people around the streets of his adopted city, is one of Plymouth Argyle's most revered strikers.
Sunday's FA Cup third-round tie between Argyle and Liverpool at Anfield will be something special for Tynan. He began his career with the Reds in the early 1970s after entering a local newspaper competition to get a trial.
"You had to collect 20 tokens, and once you had them you sent them off to the Liverpool Echo," Tynan, now 61, told BBC Sport.
"They came around different areas in Liverpool, took trials and it was whittled down to 22 lads who went to Melwood.
"[Youth development officer] Tom Saunders watched me in the trial game and they had some five-a-side games, we won 5-0 and I scored all five goals.
"The next night, he sent his assistant around to the house and they asked me to come and train. Bill Shankly signed me six months later and I played in the same youth team as Phil Thompson, David Fairclough and Jimmy Case."
While Thompson et al went on to form the backbone of the Liverpool side that dominated England and Europe for almost two decades, Tynan failed to make the grade at Anfield and left without playing a first-team game.
The goalscoring ability he showed during his trial at Liverpool never left him. His goals helped Newport County to the quarter-finals of the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1981, where he scored twice in a first-leg 2-2 draw at East German side Carl Zeiss Jena before the Welsh side lost the home leg 1-0.
His goals, coupled with Newport's need to sell players to stay afloat, caught the eye of then-Plymouth boss Bobby Moncur in 1983.
"He always liked me," said Tynan. "Every time I played against Plymouth I'd always score. I think we played four times and I scored six goals, so he was quite a fan.
"When I first came down it didn't work out too well to begin with. I went 20 games and only scored two goals, but by the end of the season I ended up getting 22, which wasn't a bad return."
Tynan's goal return is the third best in Plymouth's history - 145 from 310 games over two spells.
His first season at third-tier Argyle coincided with the club making the semi-finals of the FA Cup in 1984, when they lost to Watford, having beaten top-flight West Bromwich Albion and Derby County along the way.
"It was a decent run and we were unlucky to get beaten in the semi-final," Tynan said.
"The fans were brilliant, and it helped our league form as well. It was the underdog against everyone else and we were beating teams - it was absolutely brilliant."
Media playback is not supported on this device
Never before in Tynan's time as a player or supporter have his hometown side and the club in his adopted city ever met - not since 1962, in fact.
"I wish it would have happened while I was playing for Plymouth," he said.
"In some ways you've got to be very envious. It's a great atmosphere at Anfield. I am a little bit envious because I wish it could be me."
Sign up for the 2017 FA People's Cup and take your chance to win tickets to the FA Cup final in May and achieve national five-a-side glory.
Up to 9,000 Plymouth fans are expected to travel to Liverpool for Sunday's tie and Tynan believes he will not be the only observer with split loyalties.
"There are a lot of Scousers living in Plymouth," said Tynan. "They call us the Scouse greens - we support Liverpool but watch Argyle.
"A few weeks ago there was a function on and Jimmy Case and Terry McDermott were there along with 200 Liverpool supporters, but they were all Argyle supporters as well, so this game has created a lot of atmosphere within the town."
So how might Argyle, second in League Two, fare against the five-time European champions?
"Liverpool might play a weakened side, but on the day you just don't know," said Tynan. "If they don't play as well as they can, and Argyle play well, it can happen."
Tynan will be in the stands to witness the first meeting between the two clubs in 55 years - one wonders what Argyle fans would give to have him in his pomp leading the line on his former home turf.

Cyber-attacks, trolls, terrorist propaganda, sexism, racism, Twitter mobs... stop the web now, Mr Berners-Lee, we want to get off.
So, when it came to compiling 2015's list of the most viral videos and memes (see 2012's, 2013's and 2014's), I decided to impose a couple of ground rules to keep things upbeat.
Rule number one: nothing miserable.
The world was a scary place in 2015. Consider this list a safe, feel-good haven.
Rule number two: nothing in this list was created specifically to go viral.
As in, a committee of advertising executives didn't sit around a room and decide how to spend money on making it a hit.
Of course, everyone wants their posts to be popular, but let's just say this list is intended to feature some of the more organic fun.
Off we go!
One of the remarkable things about Ruairi McSorley is how he managed to change a tiny soundbite into a media career.
Asked by UTV reporter Gareth Wilkinson about the weather conditions in Northern Ireland, McSorley's charming accent led to him being dubbed the most Irish man in the world.
His "frostbit" soundbite has led to countless TV appearances, events and, soon, a charity single.
If you're not a fan of American Football - and sometimes even if you are - the half-time show is the most interesting part of the sporting extravaganza.
And not since Janet Jackson's wardrobe "malfunction" has their been a more talked about moment than singer Katy Perry's performance.
She was joined on stage by two adorable backing dancers, although one of them, the shark on the left, struggled to keep up.
Left Shark fever swept the world, coming to symbolise the daily struggles we all face to keep up with the world.
Katy Perry's lawyers tried to trademark "left shark", but were denied.
Also in February, a garment now consigned to history as simply "the dress" was stirring debate.
Optical illusion, colour blindness', strange lighting - whatever caused the difference of opinion, the image of the white/gold or blue/black dress became one of the most shared of the year.
And then we all agreed it was blue and black. Didn't we?
If Katy Perry's Left Shark was a symbol of life's daily struggles, the shot of a weasel hitching a ride on a woodpecker is a reminder of how we should all be able to get along, no matter our differences.
"Weasels are fearless," commented wildlife expert Lucy Cooke. Evidently!
Also in March, shocking footage emerged from Thailand showing an elephant, clearly intoxicated, clambering into a bath.

Annual sense-of-humour-vacuum April Fools' Day brings a flood of prank videos.
Most are terrible, but some are beautifully executed - like this magic from a maths teacher in California. It racked up an impressive 13 million views.
Maths was a continuing theme in April.
This brain teaser, originally posed to Singaporean schoolchildren, had the world scratching its head and arguing over the solution. Did you figure it out?

"Spotted this specimen trying to dance the other week. He stopped when he saw us laughing."
So wrote a poster on 4chan, the notoriously dark online message board. They attached a picture of Sean O'Brien, a large Liverpudlian, who had been dancing at a gig.
After attention was brought to the apparent "fat-shaming", the internet rallied round and Mr O'Brien was tracked down.
In May, the Dancing Man had a huge party thrown for him in Los Angeles - attended by Monica Lewinsky, Moby and Andrew WK.
"I'm still pinching myself," Mr O'Brien said.
Back in London, it was a "hipster cop" that had people talking.
Peter Swinger - who sports a stylish, curly moustache - was spotted on duty at a protest march.
However, according to the Daily Mail, a close relative said Mr Singer, a father of three, was "definitely not a hipster".
What a hipster thing to say.
Behold, the best double-take ever captured on film.
Champion surfer Mick Fanning waiting just six days to get back into the water after this terrifying incident.
The 34-year-old was competing in South Africa when two sharks appeared in the water.
No problem for Mr Fanning, though - he just punched one of them and swam off, avoiding probable death.
Kevin Innes found a pile of dog toys in a shop in Norway. And then he pressed them.
The Guardian called the resulting clip the "best thing on the internet today".
I'd go as far as declaring it the best thing on the internet this entire year.
Why? It sums up the very best thing about viral hits - that ability to give the entire world that "oh, you had to be there" experience.
Also in August, everyone melted after watching this little lad who definitely isn't going to miss his mum when he's at school.
The undoubted star of this next clip is the woman in the passenger seat. Quiet, stoic… resigned.
Next to her, the now world-famous Ronnie Pickering.
Who? Ronnie Pickering. Who? RONNIE PICKERING!
Mr Pickering's road rage was captured on film by cyclist Steve Middleton, and spread around the world as people asked: "Who's Ronnie Pickering?"
The video can be viewed here, but be warned it contains a flood of swear words.
Mr Pickering's son later took to Twitter to say his Dad's a great guy and a great laugh. So, let's give him the benefit of the doubt - we all have our off days.
Meanwhile, in September, this Manhattan rat was having the "on" day to end them all.
In this internet age, it's quite reassuring that the humble music video format still has the ability to get people talking.
Though now, it's not enough to merely like a music video - you have to remix it.
Hip hop artist/dancing visionary Drake's video for Hotline Bling spawned hundreds of remakes.
To save you the time, just watch this one - it's by far the best.
For a short while in October it seemed that every cat owner in the world was buying up cucumbers to scare their cats.
(Although it must be said that experts later advised against it - it's pretty mean.)
There are numerous theories as to why cats seem to jump out of their skin at the sight of a cucumber - one expert, speaking to ABC News, said it's because cats are genetically wired to bounce away from snakes.
Ever since the demise of CBBC's Record Breakers, the public's appetite for world-beaters has been left unsatisfied.
Good job we've got Otto, then, a bulldog who rode a skateboard through the legs of 30 people.
If there's one thing we've learned this year, it's that being Irish increases your viral potential by roughly 100x.
Here, TV news reporter Teresa Mannion took to the coastline of Galway, in the west of Ireland, to broadcast to RTE viewers.
But Storm Desmond had other ideas, giving poor Ms Mannion a right blustering.
"Don't swim in the sea!" she screamed in her dramatic live report. And then the internet got to work.
And on Christmas Day, a lot of Dads fell off their hoverboards.
So, there we have it. An eclectic year of road rage, Irishness, dresses and sharks of varying ferocity.
The next year could see big changes to the internet.
Debates on encryption and censorship may alter the very fabric of how this series of tubes works.
But through it all, let's hope we keep our sense of humour and not take ourselves too seriously. When life gives you cucumbers, make a video.

Question: Interim British Swimming head coach David McNulty has ruled out taking on the role full-time.

McNulty, will lead the 19-strong GB team at next week's World Short Course Championships in Istanbul, wants to stay in charge of British Swimming's intensive training centre in Bath.
Furniss and Nesbit have the respect of every coach in Great Britain
"I love coaching day-to-day and I think we can achieve even more at Bath over the next four years," said McNulty.
"For me Bill Furniss and Chris Nesbit would both be ideal [as the new boss]."
Furniss guided Adlington to double Olympic gold in Beijing and two bronze medals in London.
For five years Nesbit was in charge of GB's successful programme in which swimmers were trained in Australia during Bill Sweetenham's time as GB swimming boss, and Nesbit also led England to 34 swimming medals at the 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi.
Following the post-Olympic departure of previous head coach Dennis Pursley, British Swimming delayed the appointment of his replacement while a review was conducted into the sport's "disappointing" performance at the London Games.
The findings of the review, published earlier this week, stated that the British Swimming programme was "not broken", despite subsequent claims by Rebecca Adlington that the sport was an "absolute mess".
"They [Furniss and Nesbit] are guys who I have respected over the years," continued McNulty, whose views are backed by Adlington.
"For 20-30 years they have consistently produced great swimmers and they have the respect and clout of every coach in Great Britain."

Under McNulty's stewardship, British Swimming's Intensive Training Centre [ITC] at the University of Bath produced four London Olympians, including the country's best performer at the Games in Olympic silver medallist Michael Jamieson.
The head coach admitted he may be interested in the Great Britain role "in the future", adding that although he does not want the job at the moment he is excited about the prospect of gaining experience leading a full international squad in Turkey next week.
"I think it [being offered the role] is a reflection of what happened in the summer and I jumped at the chance because it's the next step up for me and I can't wait to lead that team out," McNulty told BBC Sport. "It's the chance of a lifetime."
In addition to Jamieson, other high-profile athletes competing at the World Short Course Championships include 2011 world silver medallist Hannah Miley, as well as London Olympians Francesca Halsall and Elizabeth Simmonds.

Previous head coach Denis Pursely left after London 2012 and Australian Michael Scott resigned after a review concluded he would need to live full-time in the UK in order to continue.
In December, Rebecca Adlington attacked the sport for delaying new appointments and insisted they should be British.
Her long-term coach Bill Furniss has been strongly linked with the post.
If I was going to carry on, I would only want to be coached by Bill [Furniss]
Adlington, Great Britain's most successful swimmer of all-time, is set to make a "major announcement" about her future on Tuesday and has previously stated her decision whether to continue in the sport will be linked to Furniss' movements.
"If I was going to carry on, I would only want to be coached by Bill," Adlington told the BBC in late 2012.
British Swimming fell short of their Olympic medal target of five, winning three in London and although a subsequent review ruled the sport's programme was "not broken" they received a £4m funding cut for the Rio 2016 cycle.
John Atkinson, who as performance director to the ParalympicsGB swimming team led them to 39 medals at London 2012, was one of the favourites to switch over to the non-disabled discipline.
However, he has agreed to head up the Canadian Swimming high-performance programme.

Question: The Royal Opera House's production of William Tell, which was booed on its opening night because of a nude rape scene, has been given a 15 certificate for a cinema screening.

Represent the news to retrieve its missing first sentence

Organisers have also written to ticket holders for the live performance to warn them in advance about the scene, which is not in the original opera.
The Opera House has since apologised for distress caused by the first night.
The 5 July performance is being screened in cinemas around the world.
The production, which is directed by the Italian director Damiano Michieletto, was heavily criticised by audience members and critics.
The Stage gave the production one star. George Hall called it a "dire evening" in which the "gratuitous gang-rape" scene provoked "the noisiest and most sustained booing I can ever recall during any performance at this address".
After the first night, Director of Opera Kasper Holten defended the controversial scene saying it "puts the spotlight on the brutal reality of women being abused during war time, and sexual violence being a tragic fact of war."
Now Holten has been joined by Alex Beard, chief executive of the Royal Opera House and Antonio Pappano, music director of The Royal Opera, in issuing a joint response in which they say they want to "assure that the public reaction to this scene has been of great concern to us and we take it very seriously.
"For this reason, we want to make sure that ticket holders are warned in advance of watching the show, that they will be seeing a scene depicting momentary nudity and violence of a threatening sexual nature."
The response which is posted on the Royal Opera House website again defends the scene saying that they "feel that the scene in question is not gratuitous but is founded in the libretto of the opera and in the context of the overall action of the piece".
But the post admits the "reactions have made a deep impact on us".
"It has never been our intention to offend members of our audience, but for the scene to prompt reflection on the consequences of such terrible crimes on their victims."

The veteran actress won a record eighth Olivier for her best supporting actress role as Paulina in Kenneth Branagh Theatre Company's production of The Winter's Tale.
No-one has won as many Oliviers for acting since the awards began 40 years ago.
As she collected her award she joked that she was "livid" because she had lost a bet with her grandson.
Speaking backstage about her record win, she said: "I'm rather overcome. I didn't expect it... it feels terrific."
Dame Judi praised the "really fantastic company and crew and stage management" of the Shakespeare production at the Garrick Theatre.
"Everybody says what a wonderful time they have doing something. I can truly say that in the Winter's Tale it was an absolutely memorable family."
She added the award was "lovely to have, but in actual fact it belongs to all those people just as much as it belongs to me."
The musical Gypsy won the most awards on the night for a single production. Its four prizes included best actress in a musical for runaway favourite Imelda Staunton, and best musical revival.
Staunton, who opened the ceremony with a performance of Gypsy's Everything's Coming Up Roses, said:  "We felt we were doing something special every night and every night we went out and wanted to do a better show than the night before."
The show, which transferred to the West End from the Chichester Festival Theatre, also won for best lighting design while Lara Pulver was named best supporting actress in a musical.
Hosted by Michael Ball, the ceremony took place at London's Royal Opera House and included a performance by singer Cyndi Lauper, whose Kinky Boots was named best new musical.
Denise Gough won best actress for her acclaimed performance as a recovering addict in People, Places and Things, recently opened in the West End after a sell-out run at the National Theatre last year.
Gough had been hotly tipped to win in a shortlist that included Gemma Arterton and Nicole Kidman.
The Irish actress used her speech to raise the issue of diversity, saying: "In a year where we have seen progress made in racial diversity on our stages it's just a bit sad that in this category it hasn't been represented."
People, Places and Things was one of four wins for the National. Duncan Macmillan's drama also won for best sound, while Ma Rainey's Black Bottom was named best revival and Mark Gatiss won best supporting actor for Three Days in the Country.
The best actor prize went to Kenneth Cranham in Florian Zeller's The Father.
Cranham, who plays a man with dementia, beat competition from Kenneth Branagh, Benedict Cumberbatch, Adrian Lester and Mark Rylance.
Speaking backstage, he admitted he didn't think he stood a chance of winning. "They are like brand names," he said. "I felt like a little old cornershop."
Meanwhile in the best director category, Robert Icke triumphed for his work on the Greek tragedy Oresteia, which ran at The Almeida theatre.  The play is a blood-soaked family saga spanning several decades and is often said to not only be the 5th Century BC playwright Aeschylus's final play, but also his greatest.
Musical Kinky Boots won two other prizes, with Matt Henry collecting best actor in a musical for his portrayal of Lola and Gregg Barnes awarded for his costume design.
Musical In the Heights also had three wins - for outstanding achievement in music, choreography and a best supporting actor in a musical trophy for David Bedella.
The Royal Court's production of Martin McDonagh's Hangmen was named best new play and also won for Anna Fleischle's set design.
Nell Gwynn, starring Gemma Arterton and written by Jessica Swale, was named best new comedy.
The prize for outstanding achievement in opera went to the English National Opera chorus and orchestra for The Force of Destiny, Lady Macbeth Of Mtsensk and The Queen Of Spades, which were all performed at London Coliseum.
The ENO has faced months of turmoil which includes the resignation of its musical director Mark Wigglesworth and the threat of strike action by its chorus over new contracts.
The ENO's head of music, Martin Fitzpatrick, who collected the prize, said the chorus and orchestra were "a vital part of the lifeblood" of an opera company.
Long-running musical The Phantom of the Opera won the Oliviers audience award - the only category voted for by members of the public.
Highlights from the ceremony were screened on ITV for a third consecutive year and secured an average audience of 700,000 viewers - the same as last year.
However, in 2015 that figure marked a 12.5% drop from the year before - and an almost 50% fall since it was first aired in 2013.
The ceremony will be shown in full on ITV3 on 4 April at 23:00 BST.
Next year the Olivier Awards will be on 9 April 2017 in a new venue, London's Royal Albert Hall.

Question: Australian PM Tony Abbott has said he and his Liberal party deputy Julie Bishop will "stand together" against a leadership challenge from MPs.

Backbencher Luke Simpkins called the motion for Tuesday, saying it was "time to test the support of the leadership".
Mr Abbott, who came to office promising stability, has faced growing questions about his position in recent weeks.
His party lost recent elections in Queensland and he was ridiculed for giving a knighthood to Prince Phillip.
Ms Bishop, whose position is also being challenged, had been seen as a potential leadership challenger.
In a statement on Friday she said there should be "support for current leadership" in Tuesday's motion, known as a spill.
Communications Minister Malcolm Turnbull has also been suggested as a possible rival, along with Social Services Minister Scott Morrison.
While Mr Turnbull has not yet commented, Mr Morrison told reporters he would not stand for election.
Analysis: Wendy Frew, Australia editor
Mr Abbott's leadership had been criticised before but his decision on Australia Day to award a knighthood to Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, was a game-changer.
Now, two backbenchers have come forward to lance what former Victorian Premier and Liberal heavyweight Jeff Kennett has likened to a festering boil of discontent with Mr Abbott.
The call for a party room spill on Tuesday by MPs Luke Simpkins and Don Randall has set the hares running. MPs are now furiously phoning each other to count the numbers for the pretenders.
Although Julie Bishop has supported Mr Abbott's stand against the motion, that does not mean she is ruling herself out if the motion passes and goes to a leadership vote.
Leadership spills have failed in the past, however, and Mr Abbott could still survive to see another day.

Where has Tony Abbott gone wrong?
Mr Abbott took office in 2013 promising to end the infighting and instability of the Labor years and reinvigorate the economy.
But he was immediately criticised for slashing spending in areas including universities, and his approval ratings have since plummeted.
He has been forced to scrap several of his key policies, including increasing the direct cost of seeing a GP and a paid parental leave scheme.
But in his email to Liberal MPs, Mr Simpkins said the awarding of a knighthood to Prince Philip "was for many the final proof of a disconnection with the people".
He said it was "time to test the support of the leadership in the party room".
In a brief news conference on Friday, Mr Abbott said MPs were entitled to put the motion forward, but that they were "asking the party room to vote out the people that the electorate voted in".
He said the Liberals were "not going to repeat the chaos and the instability" of the opposition Labor party, which lost office in 2013 after a series of leadership crises.
"So I have spoken to Deputy Leader Julie Bishop and we will stand together in urging the party room to defeat this particular motion and in so doing, and in defeating this motion, to vote in favour of the stability and the team that the people voted for at the election," he said.
Political commentators have said the spill is based on opaque procedures, but in general this is how Tuesday's spill would work:

The move comes in a frontbench reshuffle following Malcolm Turnbull's conservative coalition's recent close-run election victory.
France won Australia's largest-ever defence contract in April beating rival bids from Japan and Germany.
The new defence industry minister, Christopher Pyne, will oversee the A$50bn (â‚¬34bn; Â£29bn) deal.
The decision to build the naval fleet in South Australia - Mr Pyne's home state - is expected to create thousands of jobs and boost the local economy.
The prime minister said it would completely transform the defence industry in Australia.
"This is a big change, a big reform, and it requires additional leadership and additional oversight," Mr Turnbull said.
"This programme is vitally important for the future of Australian industry."
The reshuffle otherwise brought in only minor changes, with most key figures staying in their roles.
Despite pressure from some right-leaning elements of his party, Mr Turnbull did not offer a cabinet post to Tony Abbott, the man he ousted as prime minister in 2015.
Meanwhile another former prime minister, Kevin Rudd, has announced he has asked the government to nominate him for the post of secretary general of the United Nations.
Mr Turnbull said cabinet would consider the request, which had been widely expected.

Question: Ugandan officials have seized some two tonnes (4,600lb) of ivory - one of the country's biggest such hauls for many years.

The Uganda Wildlife Association (UWA) has said the 832 pieces of ivory could be worth up to $6.7m but other estimates put the value lower.
Experts say some of the ivory is believed to have come from elephants poached outside Uganda.
There is a huge demand for African ivory in Asia for use in ornaments.
The ivory was apparently heading for the Kenyan port of Mombasa.
Some of the tusks had been broken up and covered with plastic bottles in crates labelled as material to be recycled.
The UWA told the BBC's Catherine Byaruhanga that Uganda is increasingly being used as a transit country by poachers who kill elephants in states such as South Sudan or the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Uganda is believed to have about 5,000 elephants and this haul would represent the tusks from about 400 animals.
Last week, some four tonnes of ivory was found in Mombasa after coming from Uganda.
According to the UWA, the rate of elephant poaching is relatively low in Uganda, with an estimated 20 elephants killed for their ivory across the country in 2010.
After a sharp fall in the number of elephants in Africa, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (Cites) banned the trade in ivory in 1989
But in recent years poaching has increased across sub-Saharan Africa with criminal gangs slaughtering elephants for ivory markets in Asia.

The campaign group estimates there has been a 48% decline in elephant numbers from just over 20,000 to around 10,300.
The WCS's Alastair Nelson says the poachers come from Tanzania where the elephant population has already been decimated.
China is the world's largest consumer of smuggled tusks.
Remote northern Mozambique, which includes the Niassa National Reserve, was the hardest hit, accounting for 95% of elephant deaths.
The north "has always been a remote and poorly governed area, with an underlying level of corruption," Mr Nelson told AFP.
Mozambique did not criminalise the killing of protected animals until 2014.
In May, police seized the country's biggest ever find of illegal wildlife products.
Some 1.3 tonnes of elephant ivory and rhino horn were found. That find represented the result of the killing about 200 animals and had a street value of $6.3m (£4.1m).
