Jewish security patrol cars (pictured) and extra police were out in force in North-West London yesterday following the kosher store siege in Paris amid fears of a copycat attack in the capital . 'We ask the community to remain calm and vigilant.’ Tributes have continued to be paid to the victims of three days of terrorist atrocities which left 17 people dead. Shomrim tweeted on Friday: 'Our thoughts and prayers are with the Jewish community in Paris, the victims and families of victims in today's attacks.' Based in North West London, and with a sister organisation in North East London, the volunteers are trained by the Metropolitan Police and patrol the area regularly looking for anti-Semitic hate crimes, and general disorder in the neighbourhood. The volunteer group, similar to a Neighbourhood Watch, are trained to safely track and detain suspects until police arrive, and run a 24-hour hotline for those in the area to report attacks. A Metropolitan police officer patrols an area of North London with a large Jewish population yesterday . A million people, including 30 world leaders, are set to attend a rally in a show of unity in Paris today after hundreds of thousands of people hit the streets of France yesterday in a day of national mourning. Yesterday, hundreds of flowers were laid at the scene in tribute to the victims of the Paris kosher deli massacre, where four hostages lost their lives on Friday. Dozens of heavily armed police stood guard and extended the security area outside the Hyper Cacher grocery, as people left bouquets of flowers close to the scene on the outskirts of the French capital. A young Jewish man who arrived to leave a bunch of flowers to honour the victims described the massacre as an 'attack on democracy'. The man, who was in his 20s but did not give his name, said: 'Today is a very sad day for all of France. A police officer speaks to a pair of men in an area of North London which has a large Jewish population . 'This is not just an attack on the Jewish community, this is an attack on everyone, on all of France. This is an attack on democracy.' At the Synagogue de Vincennes, just a brief walk from the grocery store, seven heavily armed policeman nervously kept watch and refused to let anyone approach the place of worship. An extended security cordon had been placed on the streets around the synagogue and police were keen to quickly move people on amid fear of further attacks in the area." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Extra Jewish security patrol cars are out in force in North-West London .\nMove made amid fears of copycat attack in wake of Paris massacres .\nTributes paid to victims of terrorist atrocities which left 17 people dead .\nSecurity cars look similar to police vehicles and bear the name 'Shomrim'\nVolunteers receive police training and uniforms, including knife-proof vests ." } ]

Lawyers for the Australian, whose family was helped to move to America by Jackson when he was a dancer at age five, are approaching Blanca Francia to appear as a witness, according to TMZ. Robson, 30, claims he was abused by Jackson for seven years and that the King of Pop told him he'd go . to jail for the rest of his life if he told anyone about it. Lawsuit: Wade Robson, pictured yesterday with his family, has launched a civil lawsuit against Jackson's estate claiming he was abused and staff from the pop singer's company should have protected him . Support? Robson's lawyers are approaching Jackson's former maid Blanca Francia, left, to back him, according to reports. Robson denied her claims Jackson showered with him in the star's 2005 trial, right, . He has now launched a civil lawsuit against the pop star's estate. It is a change of tune for Robson who . took to the stand as the first defense witness at a trial in 2005, where . Jackson was accused of molesting 13-year-old cancer survivor Gavin Arvizo. It was the same court case where Francia spoke out about seeing a young Robson in the shower with the singer. 'I walked in and they were in the shower,' Ms Francia told the court, according to a report from the time. 'When I saw it I saw clothes on the floor by the shower...underwear,' she said, adding that she recognized Jackson's and Robson's underclothes. According to TMZ in the maid's full written testimony she said she couldn't see what was happening in the shower but could hear Jackson laughing. Ms Francia's own son spoke at the court case in which Jackson was cleared of all 14 counts. Robson is planning to argue that Michael Jackson's companies -- MJJ Productions and MJJ Ventures -- had a duty to protect him. However, his claims have been ridiculed by those close to the now deceased pop star. Debbie Rowe, 54, the ex-wife and mother of two of Jackson's children, criticized Robson on Thursday. She called the choreographer 'opportunistic' and said he was seeking publicity. She told TMZ on Thursday: 'It will be quickly forgotten, and will do nothing, nothing to tarnish Michael's extraordinary legacy.' Jackson's estate has called the claims 'outrageous and pathetic' while Jermaine Jackson has said that Robson is 'full of s***'. But Robson has been making his case too. He appeared on the Today program this week for a lengthy interview on why he is coming forward now and to outline his claims. He says from the age of seven to around 14, Jackson 'performed sexual acts on me and forced me to perform sexual acts on him'. Robson told Today Jackson convinced him that 'both of us would go to jail for the rest of our lives' if he told anyone about what they had done together. During the Arvizo case he adamantly denied that he had ever been molested or inappropriately . touched by the singer. Seven years of alleged abuse: Robson, pictured right with Jackson as a kid, said from the age of seven to around 14 Jackson 'performed sexual acts on me and forced me to perform sexual acts on him' Breaking his silence: Robson, right, told Matt Lauer, left, that he decided to break his silence about the alleged molestation after having his own son two years ago . Robson, now a top music choreographer . who has worked with Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake, said he hadn't yet come to terms with . what had happened to him. 'I said what I understood and I said what I was able to say,' he explained. 'From . seven years old, from day one of the abuse, Michael told me that we . loved each other and this was love, this was an expression of our love. And then he would follow it up with 'but if you ever tell anyone what we . are doing both of our lives and careers would be over'.' 'This is not a case of repressed . memory. I have never forgotten one moment of what . Michael did to me, but I was psychologically and emotionally completely . unable and unwilling to understand that it was sexual abuse.' He said having his own child two . years ago made him face up to the truth, as he said he couldn't help . thinking about how he'd feel if a stranger molested his little boy. 'I'm a father and I became a father . two and a half years ago to this beautiful baby boy and during the first . 18 months of his life I collapsed into two nervous breakdowns, . terrifying nervous breakdowns,' he said. 'At that point, I had no idea what . was going on. And for the first time in my life, I began to realize that . my completely numb and unexplored feelings about what Michael did to me . might be a problem and maybe I need to speak to somebody about it.' He has asked a . probate court to allow him to file a late creditor's claim against Jackson's . estate, even though the deadline has passed for creditors to file such . claims. The estate's lawyer, Howard Weitzman, has dismissed Robson's claims. In a statement Weitzman said: . 'This is a young man who has testified at least twice under oath over . the past 20 years and said in numerous interviews that Michael Jackson . never did anything inappropriate to him or with him. 'Now, nearly four years after Michael has passed, this sad and less-than-credible claim has been made.'. Robson said the ordeal of launching such a public case was too great for it to be about money. 'The idea that I would make all of this up and put myself, . my wife, my son, my entire family through this extremely stressful and . painful experience all for money is incomprehensible,' he said. 'I've lived in silence and denial for 22 . years and I can't spend another moment in that... I'm never going to go . away with this for the sake of money. I'm never going to be silenced for . money. That's not going to happen.' Robson's lawsuit comes as the high . profile trial of Michael Jackson's tour promoter, AEG, continues. The trial . is brought by the singer's mother and children who claim AEG shares . blame in his death for neglecting to vet and supervise Jackson's doctor, . Dr Conrad Murray. Evidence: Jackson's case was backed by Robson at the star's 2005 trial, pictured entering court, over molestation claims . Idol: Robson, pictured as a young boy, was supported by Jackson who had him appear in numerous videos . THEN . Wade Robson, who was then 22, testified in the Santa Maria courtroom that he was five when he met Jackson for the first time in his hometown, Brisbane, Australia. Two years later, he was a guest at Jackson's Neverland ranch for the first of some 20-plus overnight visits. He told jurors he shared a bed with Jackson on numerous occasions from the ages of seven to 14, at Neverland, as well as apartments in Los Angeles and at hotels in Las Vegas and LA. When asked by Jackson's lead lawyer, Thomas A. Mesereau Jr., whether he'd ever been molested by the singer Robson replied: 'Absolutely not,' before also denying strongly that Jackson had ever touched him in a sexually explicit way. When senior deputy district attorney, Ronald J. Zonen, questioned Robson's account, he replied: 'I'm telling you, nothing ever happened.' Zonen then said, according to a New York Times article at the time: 'You're saying nothing ever happened when you were awake,' to which Robson responded: 'I think something like that would wake me up.' However, a former maid at Neverland who testified at the trial as a witness for the prosecution, said she had seen Jackson groping Robson in the shower at the ranch. But Robson denied ever having a shower with the star. NOW . But now Robson is claiming Michael Jackson did in fact molest him, over a period of seven years. In an interview with Today, Robson, . now 30, labelled Jackson 'a pedophile and a child sexual abuser' who from the ages of seven to around 14 'performed sexual . acts on me and forced me to perform sexual acts on him.' He said that Jackson told him the alleged abuse was . 'an expression of our love.' Robson added, explaining why he gave what he claims now was a false testimony: 'This is not a case of repressed . memory. I have never forgotten one moment of what . Michael did to me, but I was psychologically and emotionally completely . unable and unwilling to understand that it was sexual abuse.' But he said he was never offered money to deny the abuse during the trial. 'There was no money, there was no \"you must lie.\" Michael, when he would talk to me before these things were going on, and he would call me everyday... it was complete manipulation and brainwashing. It wasn't any sense of the truth on the phone, he would role play with me and train me for these scenarios.'" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Wade Robson, 30, is mounting a civil lawsuit against the dead star's estate claiming he suffered years of abuse .\nRobson, who testified for Jackson and denied former maid Blanca Francia's evidence at his 2005 trial, is now asking her to help him .\nMaid said she saw the pop star with the boy, hired as a dancer for Jackson, in the shower with their underwear on the floor .\nRobson says he hadn't come to terms with the abuse when he spoke at the 2005 trial age 22 .\nJackson supporters say Robson's claims are lies while his estate brands them 'outrageous and pathetic'" } ]

The video, which was recorded during the unidentified man's July 14, arrest, comes nearly a week after a Staten Island man died after he was put in a similar choke hold by an NYPD officer, and the city's police commissioner ordered that all of the NYPD's 35,000 officers be retrained in use of force policies and techniques. In the video, two officers can be seen wrestling the man to the ground, at which point one of the officers put him in a choke on two separate occasions, all while repeatedly punching him in the face. Scroll down for video . Choked: Video shows the unidentified officer choking a suspect in a subway station as he was trying to take him into custody . Stop resisting: The officer repeatedly tells the suspect to 'stop resisting,' as is often the case when police know they are being recorded . Punches: As the officer was choking the man, he repeatedly punched him in the face . Blood: Bystanders were screaming 'you busted his nose' as blood began to splash on the ground beneath the man being taken into custody . 'You busted his nose!' bystanders on the video are heard yelling. According to DNAinfo.com, the video was anonymously sent to East Harlem community activist Rev. Kelmy Rodriguez. 'I was appalled when I saw this video, . especially after the Eric Garner situation,' Rodriquez told the publication. 'Something . like this adds more gas to the fire.' Disturbing video footage shows Garner, who was accused of selling illegal cigarettes, struggling on the pavement saying 'I can't breath' before passing out. NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton said Garner's death was 'very tragic' and ordered Deputy Commissioner of Training Benjamin Tucker to conduct a 'top-to-bottom' review of officers' training. Victim: Eric Garner, 43, died after being held in a 'chokehold' by NYPD officer Daniel Pantaleo in Staten Island. An initial report into his death has said he was 'not in great distress . According to the New York Daily News, Bratton is looking for inspiration from the Los Angeles Police Department's 'state of the art' training which was set up after the immigration rallies in 2007. The commissioner, who met with FBI officials following Garner's death, said he anticipated a civil suit by the family and 'would not be surprised if the U.S. attorney 'decides to open a civil rights violation investigation.' An initial report into Garner's death released earlier this week did not mention a chokehold, claiming he 'was not in great distress' and his health 'did not get worse' as he was held down. The omission has sparked an angry reaction from City Hall, with state senator Bill Perkins shouting: 'This is murder' during a rally. In the video of Garner's death, veteran officer Pantaleo waved to the camera as the father was taken away on a stretcher. One of the witnesses asked, 'Why is nobody doing CPR?' an officer responded, 'Because he's breathing.' Demanding action: NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton, pictured left with New York Mayor Bill de Blasio during a press conference this week, wants a 'top-to-bottom' review of how officers use force . Sergeant Dhanan Saminath said Garner was in handcuffs with officers 'maintaining control of him' according to the report. It also suggests that he 'resisted arrest' and failed to 'obey instructions' as police tried to handcuff him. However Sergeant Kizzy Adonis said she 'believed she heard the perpetrator state that he was having difficulty breathing'. The New York City Medical Examiner's office has not yet been able to determine what killed Garner - whether he died from a chokehold or an underlying health issue. Pantaleo, a plainclothes cop, has been forced to surrender his gun and badge and put on desk duty while the NYPD investigates the case. Disturbing footage: The father passed out after being held down by police. Minutes later, Officer Pantaleo was caught waving to a woman recording the incident (right) Treatment: A witness asked why no one was giving him CPR, to which officers respond 'because he is breathing' It has also . been revealed that he has seven civil rights lawsuit against him - . including allegations of illegal strip searches and arresting men who . were 'committing no crimes' at the time. One . resulted in the city paying $30,000 to two men who were unlawfully . strip-searched. The other lawsuit, which is still pending, alleges an . unlawful arrest. Garner's grieving son, meanwhile, has called for the New York Police Department officer who was filmed putting his father in a chokehold to be arrested and thrown in jail. This isn't the first time Pantaleo has been accused of abusing his police powers, the Staten Island Advance reports. The eight-year veteran officer has had two civil rights lawsuits filed against him. The first was the result of a March 2012 traffic stop in which Darren Collins and Tommy Rice were arrested and then strip-searched in broad daylight on a Staten Island street. Gwen, Mr Garner's mother, said she was glad the incident was recorded so police could not shy away from what happened.

Silvia Strnadova, 26, and husband Miroslav, 30, took the unconscious child to hospital but he was left brain dead and is only being kept alive by a life support machine. The parents from the town of Prievidza in the north-western Slovak region of Horna Nitrawere were arrested after police discovered that they had given the infant a strong dose of the potent drug. Silvia Strnadova and her husband were arrested after it was discovered that they fed their four-month-old baby crystal meth to stop the infant from crying . A hospital spokesman said: 'They came into the waiting room with the unconscious baby in a pram and demanded to see a doctor. 'When we carried out checks it became apparent the child was in a critical state and had been given a strong dosage of drugs.' Head doctor Anna Moracikova added: 'The child's brain is severely damaged and he is clinically dead. His chances of survival are minimal and he is being kept alive by a life support machine.' The drug crystal meth - made notorious by the popular US drama Breaking Bad - is a powerful stimulant known for its fast and long-lasting effects. It delivers a euphoric high, but has deeply unpleasant side effects and is dangerously addictive. It can keep users awake for days, followed by a severe come-down. Referred to as ‘ice’ or ‘glass’, crystal meth - a form of methylamphetamine - can be consumed orally, sniffed, smoked or injected. Silvia Strnadova (right), 26, and husband Miroslav (left), 30, took the unconscious child to hospital but he was left brain dead and is only being kept alive by a life support machine . In its most popular crystalline form it resembles glass shavings or a crystal rock but is also available in pills and powder. Across the US, where there are thought to be a million users, before and after pictures of users are often used to emphasise its ravaging effects, such as tooth decay. Across Europe, seizures of methamphetamine have increased from 30kg in 2000 to 1,582kg in 2011. Neighbours reacted with shock at the news but say the pair were well-known for their drug abuse. Jana Trznikova, 36, said: 'Really weird people kept going to their apartment. I always worried about letting my children play outside because you never knew what would happen.

Social workers have also come under fire over their failure to take the child away from the pair. Ms Trznikova said: 'They should never have been allowed to keep that poor baby.' A police spokesman said: 'The man admitted giving the baby the meths in order to stop him crying. He has been arrested for neglect and for causing harm to a minor. That may change if the child dies.

A Government-funded project warned it had received more than 200 reports of Islamophobia following Drummer Lee Rigby’s murder, including attacks on mosques and Muslim women. Project director Fiyaz Mughal said the figure represented a ‘substantial spike’ in hate crimes and warned of ‘a sustained wave of attacks and intimidation’ against Muslim communities across Britain. Two men, both reportedly soldiers, have been arrested in connection with a petrol bomb attack on the Grimsby Islamic Cultural Centre since the killing of Lee Rigby . But more than half of the incidents reported to the Tell Mama (Measuring Anti-Muslim Attacks) hotline related to offensive messages on Twitter, Facebook or online blogs, and only a tiny minority were physical attacks, it has emerged. The claims raised questions about the way Tell Mama presented its figures in the days after Drummer Rigby’s murder, amid repeated calls for calm to avoid reprisal attacks. Mr Mughal said Tell Mama had received 162 reports of anti-Muslim prejudice in a 48-hour period. Between four and eight incidents are normally reported daily to the charity, which receives £214,000 a year in funding from the Department for Communities and Local Government to provide data and reports on attacks against Muslims to combat hate crime. A total of 212 incidents were reported between the Woolwich murder on May 22 and the end of last week. The attacks received widespread coverage alongside warnings from Mr Mughal of a ‘cycle of violence’ against Muslims which had led to ‘a sense of endemic fear’. But while they included a petrol bomb attack on a mosque in Grimsby and in another incident in Essex where a man entered a mosque armed with a knife, only 17 cases involved individuals being physically targeted, a Sunday newspaper reported. Target: Charities said there had been a 'substantial spike' in hate crimes against Muslims since the Woolwich killing. This Bolton mosque was vandalised on the evening of Lee Rigby's death . Criminal damage: This mosque in Gillingham, Kent, was the target of vandals on the night after Lee Rigby's death. But figures show a tiny minority of reported incidents were physical attacks . Six people had things thrown at them and most of the other 11 incidents related to attempts to rip off women’s headscarves or other items of Islamic dress. More than half – 120 – related to offensive or abusive messages on social networking sites including Facebook and Twitter. Contacted by the Daily Mail, Mr Mughal refused to discuss the figures, which he said would be independently checked by Birmingham University for a report next month. Any attempt to downplay the significance of verbal or online abuse was ‘an affront to hate crime reporting’, he said. He was also challenged on the figures during an interview on Radio 4’s Sunday programme, when he conceded that the number of physical attacks was ‘quite small’. Tensions: Although there have been angry booze-fuelled EDL marches since Drummer Rigby's death, figures show most reported anti-Muslim 'attacks' have been comments on the internet . He said: ‘We are talking mainly about generalised abuse, targeted comments said at a street level as well as targeted comments online. ‘So most of it is generalised abuse, thankfully it is not extreme violence. ‘This is not just an issue of attacks, physical attacks against individuals, this is about looking at the whole picture.’ In a statement on the Tell Mama website, the project said verbal and online abuse were ‘recordable hate incidents’ along with violent assaults and attacks on mosques. It said it was working with the Metropolitan Police to ensure that hate crimes against Muslims were reported correctly. David Green, director of the think-tank Civitas, said it was vital that such cases were not exaggerated or reported carelessly." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "More than half of incidents reported to hotline were internet comments .\nQuestioned raised about the way Tell Mama project presented figures ." } ]

An investigation by 5 News earlier this week found that hackers can force customers in a café to switch their phones from a legitimate Wi-Fi network to a fake one, without them knowing. This made it possible for thieves to access phones, hack email accounts, steal login details, track people's movements and access online bank accounts. To put these dangers into perspective, virtual private network (VPN) provider Hidemyass.com (HMA) recruited a child to attack a public network. Betsy Davies from Dulwich in South London hacked a willing participant’s laptop while they were connected to an open Wi-Fi network. Sniffing/eavesdropping: The method of passively listening to data on the network without the users knowledge by tricking the network into passing all data through the hacker’s computer first. Man in the middle attack: A method used to intercept traffic between a user’s device and the destination system, such as the café offering the Wi-Fi, making a victim’s machine think the hacker’s machine is the access point to the Internet. DNS cache poisoning: A method of attack whereby ‘updated’ data is used to enable the hacker to divert the traffic to the hacker’s destination of choice. Rogue Access Points/Rogue APs: Wireless access points installed on a company’s network without the company’s knowledge. These access points override the legitimate network thereby allowing the hacker to perform a man in the middle attack and intercept data. Unsecured Wi-Fi network: An unsecured Wi-Fi network is a wireless network that doesn’t request the user to log into it via the use of a username and password. These are usually displayed as OPEN networks. WEP - Wired Equivalent Privacy: The first wireless security scheme developed, it was designed to provide security that was essentially equivalent to the privacy that was enjoyed in a wired environment. This is the least secure type of wireless network available. WPA - Used Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP): This protocol further improves the security of WEP without the need to buy new hardware. It still uses WEP for encryption, but it makes the attacks used to crack WEP a bit more difficult and time-consuming. WPA2-PSK: This is the next level up from WPA and was designed for the home and small businesses . As the name implies, the new version uses a pre-shared key (PSK). This has become standard that is now used by most households today. WPA2-AES: This is a version of WPA2 used by businesses. It uses the Advanced Encryption Standard, or AES, to encrypt data and is the most secure. It's often coupled with a RADIUS server that is dedicated for authentication. RADIUS - Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS): A networking protocol that provides centralised Authentication, Authorisation, and Accounting management for users who connect and use a network service within a business. These users are authenticated against the company systems for added protection. Channels: Wireless networks use Channels which are separated out so that various communication streams don't interfere with each other. The 802.11 wireless standard allows for channels ranging from 1 thru 14. Brute-force attack: A method in which a hacker will try and break the password by continuously attempting to log in with different credentials until they find one that works. It could take hours, days or months depending upon the complexity of the password being used. Dictionary attack: A method used to ry and break the password of a user or wireless device by going through all the words in a dictionary, trying each one in turn until it finds a password which works. Virtual private network (VPN): A VPN is a way of using the public internet like a secure private network. It encrypts data and routes it through remote servers, keeping the activity and location private and secure. Rogue Access Points are wireless access points, installed on a company’s network without the company’s knowledge. Ms Davies began by searching for, and watching, a freely available video tutorial detailing how to hack a network - a Google search returns over 11 million results, and YouTube lists 14,000 tutorials (pictured) She began by searching for, and watching, a freely available video tutorial detailing how to hack a network - a Google search returns over 11 million results, and YouTube lists almost 14,000 tutorials. The schoolgirl then set up a Rogue Access Point - frequently used by attackers to activate what is known as a ‘man in the middle’ attack, and began eavesdropping on, or ‘sniffing’ traffic. Rogue Access Points are wireless access points, installed on a company’s network without the company’s knowledge. According to follow-up research, nearly two thirds (59 per cent) of people regularly use unsecure, or ‘open’ Wi-Fi hotspots with one in five (20 per cent) doing so weekly or more. Among those who use these unsecured networks, 19 per cent log on to online banking and 31 per cent send emails and personal documents . These access points override the legitimate network, allowing the hacker to launch an attack and intercept data. During this hack, Ms Davies was effectively sitting between the legitimate Wi-Fi network and the customer’s laptop, which is why it is dubbed a ‘man in the middle’ attack. Ensure a network is genuine: Check the name of the network with a shop worker. Check the lock: Secure websites display a green padlock symbol, also known as Https. Make sure this is present when using a site that handles personal data and avoid accessing sensitive documents or pages using public Wi-Fi. Use a Virtual Private Network (VPN): Not all sites display the Https lock symbol, but a VPN will act as an intermediary between the device and the internet server. Downloading an app? Check permissions: Before installing, make sure apps can't access unnecessary information. For example, a drawing app shouldn't need a contacts list. Forget the network: When leaving a publich network, don’t just log off, ask the device to forget the network so it doesn’t automatically log on when in range later. The experiment was overseen by independent online security expert Marcus Dempsey. He is hired by companies to check the robustness of their network systems. ‘The results of this experiment are worrying but not entirely surprising,’ said Mr Dempsey. ‘I know just how easily a layman can gain access to a stranger’s device, and in an age where children are often more tech-literate than adults, hacking can literally be child’s play.’ ‘Adults need to get their heads around online security basics - and stick to them whenever they connect to an unsecure network. ‘As for children, while it’s admirable educators are focusing on skills like coding, it’s important to teach them about the dangers that lurk online, as well instilling a clear sense of the ethics – just as we did with the child that participated in this experiment. ‘After all, as easily as one can now code a computer game, so one can fall into the dark world of hacking.’ A recent Cabinet Office report revealed more than half of people in the UK have fallen victim to cybercriminals.

Among those who use these unsecured networks, 19 per cent log on to online banking and 31 per cent send emails and personal documents. Cian McKenna-Charley, marketing director at HMA added: ‘The image of cyber criminals hiding in a dark room in some far-flung part of the world is antiquated - they are just as likely to be sitting next to you in a coffee shop or public library. ‘And if a child can perform a basic hack on a Wi-Fi network in minutes, imagine the damage a professional criminal hacker could do.’" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Experts predict a rise in criminals hacking ‘free Wi-Fi’ in 2015 .\nTo highlight the dangers, a virtual private network provider asked a seven-year-old to hack a network .\nThe child watched an online tutorial before hacking into the Wi-Fi hotspot .\nIt took her just 10 minutes and 54 seconds to infiltrate the network ." } ]

The mission is to stay as long as possible to do a professional job but it should take no longer than two to three weeks, Mr Abbott said. 'We don't want to be there any longer than is absolutely necessary,' he said. The prime minister stressed the mission had 'absolutely nothing' to do with the politics of eastern Europe. 'Others can get involved if they wish ... our whole and sole purpose is to claim our dead and bring them home,' he said. There had been a 'full and frank' discussion with the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe in Donetsk on Saturday about allowing the team to conduct its work, Mr Abbott said. While 'local people' had guaranteed the team's security, it did not mean they were safe under all circumstances. 'Frankly, we need to be prepared to take some risks in order to do the right thing by our dead and by their grieving families,' Mr Abbott said. Foreign Minister Julie Bishop, speaking from Amsterdam, stressed the mission would be a non-threatening operation.

Meanwhile, Belgium kick off their tournament against Algeria as dark horse contenders for many. So many of their team are familiar faces to an English audience, with Chelsea’s Eden Hazard very much the jewel in the crown; but how has this happened? After crashing out of the 1998 finals at the group stages, the Belgium federation came up with a blueprint for the future, written by coach Michel Sablon. Those at the FA who strive to improve the standard of the English football ought to read it. A significant section is how to nurture young players. Key Stage 1 is for five-seven year olds based on making football fun, learning step then encouraging dribbling and passing through progressive small-sided games up until eleven-a-side.

West Ham boss Sam Allardyce will be watching with interest. Having been rejected again by Belgium’s Romelu Lukaku in an attempt to take him on loan from Chelsea, the Hammers could make another attempt to lure Slimani from Sporting Lisbon. The Golden Boot at the last two World Cups has been won with five goals. But with Thomas Muller, who claimed the prize in 2010, upping the ante to two-goal Neymar, Robin van Persie and Arjen Robben with his opening game hat-trick it looks like the eight Brazil’s Ronaldo hit at the 2002 finals could be challenged. And with such a good start, the 10 hit by Gerd Muller in 1970 is not impossible. The record 13, which France’s Just Fontaine struck in 1958, still looks safe. It’s always hard to measure the star quality of a tournament, but there is a strong case that this has been the best start to a World Cup ever. Certainly this is on a different planet to the drab opening of South Africa 2010 where after 12 games there had been just 20 goals. So far there have been 41 from 12 games - a ratio of 3.4 per game. That’s the highest since 1958. Laying down the gauntlet: Thomas Muller netted a hat-trick for Germany in their win against Portugal . Fish out of water?

Using data from the Rosetta spacecraft, which is in orbit around the comet, scientists have revealed that the comet’s interior is ‘fluffy’. Among the other discoveries they found that the comet's neck may have been 'eaten away' over time, rather than being the result of two smaller bodies merging together. Papers on Rosetta's comet (pictured) are to be published in the journal science tomorrow. They were co-authored by scientists from the University of Maryland, US. A new theory suggests its 'neck' may have been eaten away like the core of an apple (outgassing shown here) to give it its odd shape . Several papers detailing the latest findings, and co-authored by University of Maryland scientists, will appear in a special issue of the journal Science tomorrow. Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko (67P) is showing signs of waking up early as it streaks towards the Sun at almost 47,800 mph (76,900 km/h). As it approaches the sun, the rubber duck-shaped lump of ice, dust and rock is expected to heat up and release more gas and water vapour from its interior. Comets are most active when they reach perihelion, the point in their orbit when they are closest to the Sun. But even at a distance of more than 200 million miles (320 million km), comet 67P is beginning to stir in dramatic fashion. Dr Dennis Bodewits, from the University of Maryland, US, who led one of several teams reporting latest findings from the European Space Agency's Rosetta mission in the journal Science, said: 'We are already seeing more activity. 'Jets are sprouting up everywhere. We've been surprised to see how active it is. It already has more jets than many other comets do at perihelion.' From the data, Dr Holger Sierks from the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research told MailOnline that they now had a greater understanding of the comet's interior. He said the interior is now thought to be analogous to 'ash, cigarette ash or super-dry powder snow.' One of the papers used images from Rosetta’s Osiris (Optical, Spectroscopic, and Infrared Remote Imaging System) camera to analyse the structure of the comet. They found that most of the ‘outgassing’ activity of the comet was occurring at the neck, which connects the two larger lobes and gives it its ‘rubber duck’ appearance. It raises questions as to whether the comet is a combination of two smaller bodies, or began as one larger one that shrank around the middle, like an apple beating eaten around its core. 'With the different instruments on Rosetta we hope to find out how much ice the nucleus of 67P contains, how deep below the surface it is buried, and what the composition of this ice is,' Dr Dennis Bodewits from the University of Maryland, who was involved in the research, told MailOnline. 'This then will help us understand the comet's aging. 'This ties directly into one of the main questions we're looking at now: was the comet formed in this strange shape, or is erosion responsible for \"eating away\" the comet's middle?' Rosetta (illustratino shown) entered orbit around the comet on 6 August 2014 and, in November, it released the Philae lander towards the comet to return data from the surface. Rosetta is continuing to follow the comet, with closest approach to the sun scheduled for 13 August this year . A second paper has detailed the surface of the comet that is currently visible to Rosetta, raising textures and features on its surface. This could help the team work out how the shape of the comet has evolved over time, and where also the largest deposits of water and ice might reside. Currently only one side of the comet is visible, the 'northern' side, as the other is facing away from the sun and is thus shrouded in darkness. The makes up more than half the comet's total surface and is divided into 19 distinct regions, all named after ancient Egyptian deities. A third paper combines data from OSIRIS and another instrument, the Grain Impact Analyzer and Dust Accumulator (Giada). This study looks at the comet's coma - the thick cloud of dust and gas that envelops the nucleus. As the comet gets closer to the sun, the coma grows more massive as the nucleus heats up and loses more material. The comet has also been found to be darker than coal in images taken by Rosetta, making other objects like the moon and Earth (shown in composite image) considerably brighter . By measuring the activity in the coma, including changes in the ratio of dust to gas, the team should be able to estimate how quickly the comet is outgassing and losing mass. In so doing, the team hopes to learn more about how comets evolve. ‘Because comets have very little gravity, dust and gas flow freely into space,’ said Dr Bodewits. ‘But we were surprised to find a cloud of particles orbiting the comet that are large and heavy enough to defy the sun's radiation pressure.’ The team was able to make this discovery thanks to Osiris' very sensitive cameras. ‘Each pixel is about 30 centimeters [11.2 inches],’ he continued. ‘You couldn't see a coffee cup, but you could see a large lunchbox. The resolution is about 10 times higher than Google Earth.’ Currently only one side of the comet is visible, the 'northern' side, as the other is facing away from the sun and is thus shrouded in darkness. The makes up more than half the comet's total surface and is divided into 19 distinct regions, all named after ancient Egyptian deities (shown) A fourth paper described evidence for carbon-based molecules on the comet’s surface, gathered by Rosetta's Visible and Infrared Thermal Imaging Spectrometer (Virtis) instrument. Based on past comet studies, the team expected to see signatures of slightly more complex molecules such as alcohols, carboxylic acids and nitrogen-containing amines. However, the evidence from Virtis suggests that the comet's surface is instead dominated by simpler hydrocarbons. The discovery could have implications for our understanding of how carbon-based molecules first developed and spread through our solar system. Scientists will be increasingly excited later this year, when the comet reaches its closest point to the sun on 13 August. At this point it will be most active, with new features and increased outgassing expected to be visible." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Papers on Rosetta's comet are to be published in the journal Science .\nThey were co-authored by scientists from the University of Maryland, US .\nData reveals how the comet could have a 'fluffy' interior .\nIts activity is also increasing ahead of close approach to sun in August .\nAnd a new theory suggests its 'neck' may have been eaten away like the core of an apple to give it its odd shape ." } ]

Messy attempt: Diags starts to layer his tortillas with the mince and vegetable mixture . Armed with a recipe for lamb keema tortilla stacks, the lads, who left The Only Way Is Essex last year, competed against each other to make the best version of the dish. In the video filmed for a campaign for LambSoc, the online community for English Beef and Lamb, 23-year-old Tom is clearly the more experienced chef of the two as his pal Diags seems to struggle with the simple task of dicing an onion. But both lads can't stop the tears streaming from their eyes as they take their knives to the allium. 'Hahaha, you're crying,' Diags, 23, cheekily points out as Tom's eyes start streaming. Diags and Tom filming TOWIE before their departure from the ITVBe programme last year . Cook-off: Tom Pearce (left) and James ‘Diags’ Bennewith (right) start by dicing onions for lamb tortilla stacks . Blinded by tears, the pair continue to gamely dice onion, chop chilli and peel garlic. A one point it looks as though Diags is in danger of losing a finger after a particularly risky knife move by Tom. 'What are you doing?' he exclaims as Tom narrowly misses his digits. 'My fingers are there mate.' The dynamic kitchen duo then gently fry the raw ingredients in the pan, with Tom tossing the cooked ingredients as Diags adds generous spoonfuls of cumin and garam masala to the mixture. 'Mate, that's too much', Tom reprimands but Diags insists that he's following the recipe to the letter. Adding lamb mince to the pan, the boys take it in turns to stir, mixing in fresh herbs and tomatoes to the mixture. 'Look how juicy it's got all of a sudden,' Tom says as he stirs the mixture in the pan. It's good,' he says, as he tastes the mixture while Diags complains that it could be too spicy. Chefs in the making: Tom tosses the raw ingredients in the frying pan as Diags watches . Diags and Tom dish up their respective tortilla stacks to their mystery dates . The competition kicks up a notch when it's time to assemble the tortilla stacks. Tom's precise stacking skills come to the fore as he carefully spreads his keema on the tortilla before sprinkling on the cheese. 'Tortilla down,' he says, placing it on the baking tray. He then spreads the mince before laying another pancake on the top. 'The trick to this is not to put too much filling,' Diags advises as Tom carefully lays another pancake on his pile before starting the the process again. But he then proceeds to ignore his own advice and starts piling the mince onto his tortilla . Bits of meat spill out of the sides and he has to use his fingers to pat them back into their floury casing. 'You have to massage the meat like you massage a lady,' Tom says, as he shows off his perfect tortilla stack. When it comes to garnishes and decoration, Tom opts for peas while Diags places a whole de-seeded chilli on his stack. They then put their creation in the oven, just in the nick of time as the mystery girls arrive for dinner. Presenting their respective offerings to their dates, Tom's presentation gets the thumbs up from both women, with special mention given to the peas. 'The peas look great; they're a bit more creative,' they say. Tasting their dinner, the women, who seem visibly surprised give it thumbs up, praising the 'rustic' taste and look of the meal. Lamb tortilla stacks . To make the lamb keema . Ingredients: 450G lean lamb mince; two teaspoons sunflower or vegetable oil; one large onion, peeled and finely chopped; two garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped or crushed; one inch piece fresh root ginger, peeled and finely chopped; one or two 1-2 green chillies, deseeded (if preferred) and finely chopped; two teaspoons ground cumin; three tablespoons garam masala or medium curry powder; four medium tomatoes, chopped; one or two teaspoons white sugar; two tablespoons tomato purée; salt and freshly milled black pepper; 100g fresh or frozen peas; large handful freshly chopped coriander, to garnish . Method: Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan and cook the onion and garlic over a low heat for 10 minutes or until soft and lightly golden. Add the ginger, chillies, cumin and garam masala or curry powder. Cook over a moderate heat for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the lamb and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, then add the tomatoes, sugar, tomato purée and bring to the boil. Season, reduce the heat and gently simmer uncovered for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add a little water, if needed. 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time add the peas. To make the stacks . Ingredients: Four to six corn or flour tortillas;100g grated mild hard cheese such as cheddar . Method: Preheat the oven to Gas mark 6/200°C/400°F. Place a tortilla on a large non-stick baking tray and spoon over a portion of the mince mixture evenly and a handful of cheese. Repeat with the remaining ingredients finishing with the cheese.

Her owner Jacqui West, 43, said that although the family knew this day would come they are devastated at their loss. She said: ‘We knew she was old but it’s still very upsetting. ‘She had a bad week last week. She was on antibiotics on the Wednesday because of a water infection and her back legs just seemed to let her down. She wasn’t herself at all. ‘She passed away on Friday at 3.30pm. I had spent the whole day with her as she was particularly poorly. Poppy officially recognised as the world's oldest cat after making it to the age of 24 has died - just weeks after clenching the title . ‘We knew it was going to happen but we’re all still completely devastated. It’s only just starting to sink in. ‘It’s great she managed to get the world record beforehand, it’s almost like she was purposely hanging in there because the process took months. ‘We’ve buried her in the garden now, alongside all of the other pets we’ve had that have passed away.‘ . Poppy picked up the title following the death of Pinky, a cat from Kansas who passed away at the age of 23 last year. The pet, who lived in Bournemouth, Dorset, was originally called Popsy and had two owners in her early days. At the age of five she was adopted by Marguerite Corner and her daughter Jacqui. When she was ten she went with Jacqui who had moved in with future husband Andy West. The couple now have two sons – Joe,11 and Toby, eight - and Poppy shared their home with four other cats, two rabbits and a hamster. She's a record breaker: Poppy, the 24-year-old cat from Bournemouth with owner Jacqui West and her two sons Joe, 12 (left) and Toby, 8 (right) with her certificate from Guinness World Records . Mrs West, an accountant, added that her fellow feline pals were also missing her presence. She said: ‘We’ve got got four other cats at the moment. ‘We’ve all taken the news very strangely - including the other cats. ‘All of us are off food, the other cats didn’t eat all day on Friday and they all seem to be loitering around waiting for Poppy to come home. ‘I think it is going to take us a little while to come to terms with it - it’s very said.’ The oldest cat in history was a feline called Creme Puff who lived in Austin, Texas and who survived for an astonishing 38 years and three days. It is not yet known who will take the crown from Poppy.

Referee Graham Salisbury made himself unpopular with the Leeds crowd by rejecting three penalty claims before midfielder Pritchard pounced beyond the far post, finishing off clever approach play down the right by substitute Jon Toral and Toumani Diagouraga. Salisbury quickly imposed his authority on a keenly contested affair, showing Brentford defender Harlee Dean a yellow card for impeding Billy Sharp, who was recalled to Leeds' attack after his late winner against Huddersfield a week earlier. Alex Pritchard of Brentford celebrates scoring his side's first goal against Leeds . Luke Murphy's 25-yard free-kick was deflected over the bar and from Murphy's in-swinging corner Liam Cooper and Sol Bamba narrowly failed to connect. Andre Gray should have seized an 18th-minute lead for Brentford but after giving Bamba the slip and sprinting through the middle into the penalty box, the Bees' leading scorer had his shot blocked by alert goalkeeper Marco Silvestri. Cooper was then fortunate to escape with a yellow card for impeding Pritchard when clean through. Pritchard's free-kick caused Silvestri no anxiety, but the Leeds keeper needed to be quick to close down Jota as the home defence was exposed once more. Rodolph Austin of Leeds United and Moses Odubajo of Brentford clash at Elland Road . Keen to impress after knocking at the first team door, Sharp fashioned an immaculate cross from the right, which caused Dean to slice just outside his own post, . Leeds' first penalty appeal came after 42 minutes as midfielder Rudi Austin stumbled after a shove from Moses Odubajo. The official was loudly booed by angry Leeds fans as he left the field at half-time and on his return for the second half but, when Austin again went down in the box under a 49th-minute challenge from Odubajo, he again refused to point to the spot.

The opening was disjointed, neither side finding any rhythm or looking capable of carving out a threatening opportunity. It took 18 minutes for either to even have a sniff of goal, when Reading captain Alex Pearce hacked clear after Steve Morison tried to find Alex Mowatt with a cut-back.

After Norwood sloppily gave the ball away in midfield, Casper Sloth, a replacement for the injured Tomasso Bianchi, led a counter-thrust. He shifted the ball wide right to the eager Lewis Cook, who had the presence of mind to square to Morison. Cutting inside, the forward curled his effort onto the post with goalkeeper Adam Federici beaten. Reading came close shortly after the break when Michael Hector forced Marco Silvestri into a save with his legs at the near post from a Jordan Obita corner. Having fallen behind to Murphy’s strike, which Federici will be disappointed not to have kept out, Reading threw on Yakubu and Cox as they chased an equaliser. It nearly arrived with a quarter-hour to play. Danny Williams was played through on the right-hand side of the box but Silvestri did well to block with his legs.

Nick Clegg has joined calls for Russia to lose the right to host the 2018 World Cup as part of tougher sanctions over the shooting down of flight MH17 over eastern Ukraine. The Deputy Prime Minister has said it was 'unthinkable' at present that the tournament could go ahead in the country blamed by the West for supplying arms to separatist rebels accused of causing the deaths of all 298 on board the Malaysia Airlines flight. World football governing body Fifa has this week rejected calls from some German politicians for Russia to be boycotted. The organisation has insisted the tournament could be 'a force for good.' But Mr Clegg told The Sunday Times that allowing the tournament to go ahead in Russia without a change of course by president Vladimir Putin would make the world look 'so weak and so insincere' in its condemnation of Moscow's annexation of Crimea and support for the rebels. The EU has added another 15 individuals and 18 entities to the list of those subject to asset freezes and ambassadors in Brussels are expected to extend the punitive actions to state-owned banks' access to capital markets and to the arms and energy sectors. Mr Clegg said however that sporting events should also be part of the package of measures - including the cancellation of Russia's first F1 Grand Prix, which is due to take place in Sochi in October. Mr Clegg said the threat of withdrawing the World Cup would be 'a very potent political and symbolic sanction'. 'If there's one thing that Vladimir Putin cares about, as far as I can see, it's his sense of status. 'Maybe reminding him that you can't retain the same status in the world if you ignore the rest of the world, maybe that will have some effect on his thinking.' He did not rule out the UK as an alternative host given its recent history of putting on successful global sporting events. 'We've got the stadiums, we've got the infrastructure, and we've got the public backing and enthusiasm to host it,' he said. 'That's a decision for other people. But I'm not saying this just as a, sort of, British land grab to snatch the World Cup from under Vladimir Putin's nose.' Football's world governing body Fifa this week ruled out calls from some German politicians for Russia to be boycotted, insisting the tournament could be 'a force for good . He backed David Cameron's criticism of a French deal to supply warships to Russia, saying it would be 'wholly inappropriate' for it to proceed in the present circumstances. Paris has accused the Prime Minister of hypocrisy, with MPs questioning continued British military exports despite an embargo and donations to the Conservatives by wealthy Russians. 'Whilst I can entirely understand that the French may have entered into that contract with the Russians in entirely different circumstances, it is wholly inappropriate to go ahead with that now,' he said. Former Football Association chairman Lord Triesman said it was 'beyond belief' that Russia should be allowed to host the 2018 World Cup . 'And as you know, the Prime Minister has reviewed the outstanding licenses that we have got to make sure that we deliver what we unilaterally announced back in March, which was that there would be no exports from Britain of arms products which could in any way fuel or fan the flames of the conflict in Ukraine.' He said he had been assured by Business Secretary Vince Cable that 'great care' was taken to check the remaining licences. Half of voters polled by YouGov for the Sunday Times supported the idea of stripping Russia of the high-profile football (50 per cent) and motor-racing (51 per cent) events, with only 22 per cent opposed. The call was also joined by former Football Association chairman Lord Triesman, who said it was 'beyond belief' that Mr Putin should be allowed to host the World Cup. He said: 'When you look at the way he milked the Winter Olympics for all it was worth, there's no question he sees it for himself, and for his prestige, as a huge gain. 'The idea that the world should afford Russia that prestige is beyond belief. 'I don't know how many people have to get shot out of the skies before people say enough is enough.' Pressure on Mr Cameron over Russian donations was added to by the widow of murdered spy Alexander Litvinenko, who said he should return the tennis cash. Britain has denied that the announcement of a public inquiry into his death and possible Russian involvement - in a reversal of previous policy - was linked to efforts to turn the screw on Moscow. Mrs Litvinenko told the newspaper: 'If David Cameron doesn't want to appear like he is being bought, I think he should return this money.'" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Clegg: 'Unthinkable' at present that tournament could be held in Russia .\nAllowing it to go ahead would make the world look 'weak' and 'insincere'\nWithdrawal of World Cup would be a 'potent' political and symbolic sanction .\nFifa rules out calls from some German politicians for Russia to be boycotted .\nFormer FA chairman also joins calls for Russia to be stripped of tournament ." } ]

The footage also reveals the aggressive mating rituals carried out by the deep sea creatures. It is one of the only videos ever captured showing how these squid communicate and interact with each other underwater. Scientists at Stanford’s Hopkins Marine Station in Pacific Grove, California have revealed remarkable footage of giant Humboldt squid. In a video the creatures are seen 'flashing' each other to communicate (seen here). They are also seen performing an aggressive mating ritual . Giant Humboldt squid can grow to the size of a man, up to six feet (1.8 metres) long, and are incredibly dangerous, according to National Geographic. Previous attempts to observe them have seen them rip the masks off divers and attack lighting and camera equipment. According to the researchers, the ability of the squid to flash is not due to bioluminescence, but the use of muscle fibres. ‘A unique feature of all coleoid cephalopods (squid, cuttlefish and octopus) is the ability to change skin color through the use of neuromuscular chromatophores,’ the researchers write in their paper. ‘These small organs are composed of an elastic pigment sac that can be expanded, and thereby made visible to an observer, through the action of a ring of radial muscle fibres. ‘These muscle fibres are directly innervated [supplied by nerves] by motor neurons with cell bodies in the chromatophore lobes of the brain.' But in the latest research, carried out by scientists from Stanford’s Hopkins Marine Station in Pacific Grove, California, scientists were able to mount cameras on three of the animals - known as Crittercams. They did this by cutting ‘sweaters’ from child-size swim shirts and slipping them over the body of the animals with a tube, leaving their arms, fins and tentacles free. This allowed them to observe some of the interactions taking place underwater. Of most interest, seen in the latter half of the video, is how the squid flash from red to white to red again in order to communicate. According to lead author of the study Hannah Rosen, this could be an attempt to communicate or a way to petition prospective mates. They can also flash quickly in order to camouflage themselves in the water, matching the pattern of sunlight undulating through the water. The squid were fitted with cameras attached to child-sized shirts to capture the extremely rare footage. But researchers aren't quite sure what the purpose of the flashing is. And the aggressive mating ritual, seen here, was also a bit of a mystery to the scientists . According to lead author of the study Hannah Rosen, the flashing could be an attempt to communicate or a way to petition prospective mates. They can also flash quickly in order to camouflage themselves in the water, matching the pattern of sunlight undulating through the water . In the first half of the video the researchers noted ‘arms-to-arms’ contact between squid, which they took to be mating attempts - although they were unclear if they were successful. The sex of the squid fitted with cameras was unknown, while it was not clear which arms or tentacles were used in the interactions. ‘Splaying of arms was also observed in several instances during interactions that did not appear to be directly related to mating,’ the researchers noted. ‘In one case, a pair of secondary squid were interacting and as the primary squid approached, they both turned to face the oncoming squid and opened their arms as far as possible for several seconds and then jetted backward, away from the camera.’ The scientists hope to employ more Crittercams in future to further study the odd and aggressive behaviour of the squid. The footage is extremely rare because the squid are very dangerous. Previous attempts to observe them have seen them rip the masks off divers and attack lighting and camera equipment .

The brother of a British victim of the flight MH17 disaster has spoken of his family's pain as they endure 'a waiting game' ahead of the formal identification of his body. Cameron Dalziel, a father-of-two who had dual British and South African nationality, was one of 10 British nationals on the Malaysian Air jet that was shot down over Ukraine. In an interview published today his brother Campbell said Cameron's wife Reine is 'absolutely distraught' since the crash on July 17. He told the Sunday Times: 'We need closure. I know Cameron is gone. It's getting the death certificate. At the moment it's a waiting game.' Meanwhile, it was reported today that unreleased data from the plane's black box retrieved show findings consistent with the plane's fuselage being hit multiple times by shrapnel from a missile explosion. 'It did what it was designed to do,' a European air safety official told CBS News, 'bring down airplanes.' The official described the finding as 'massive explosive decompression.' Mr Dalziel, who had emailed his brother on the day of the crash to make plans for a visit to South Africa, described the agony of relatives of the 298 victims who had to wait days for news as their loved ones lay in a field near the wreckage. He contrasted the treatment of the bodies as they were brought back to the Netherlands, from where the plane had taken off. 'They had been lying in a strange field in a conflict zone, abandoned for four days while investigators were prevented from going to retrieve their dead,' he said. 'So the professionalism and dignity of how they were honoured as fallen soldiers was such a stark contrast to the days after the crash.' Mr Dalziel said his mother had been moved to tears on seeing the poignant images of the coffins and a guard of honour for the victims. Mr Dalziel, who had just moved to Malaysia with his family, was killed while on his way home after taking a training course. He had moved his family to Malaysia for 'an adventure' but also so he could work normal hours and spend time with his sons Sheldon, 14, and Cruz, 4.

Last week it emerged his wife had been forced to cancel her husband's credit cards to stop their fraudulent use. Mrs Dalziel was 'stunned' by the shameful abuse of her dead husband’s belongings. Her brother Shane Hattingh said: 'People are abusing it in the Ukraine. They have no respect for each other, look what they’re doing. It made me angry beyond words.'

The messages, leaked to Sports Agenda, implicate Gulf Finance House chief Hisham Alrayes and colleague Salem Patel, a Leeds director, in attempting to find enough evidence against Shaun Harvey and Gwyn Williams to prevent them from getting a pay-off. Harvey, now chief executive of the Football League, had his contract honoured in full when he left Leeds, but former technical director Williams started his £250,000 case for unfair dismissal this week. Former Leeds United owners GFH sought to gather evidence that two officials committed gross misconduct . Williams was dismissed for using a club email account to send a ‘lewd and obscene’ picture to former Leeds colleague Dennis Wise. The picture of a naked woman in a shower was part of a ‘dirty Leeds’ joke email doing the rounds. Alrayes wrote to a GFH employee at Leeds on July 23, 2013: ‘I believe we should continue to find ways to dismiss Shaun and Gwyn for gross misconduct. We should also let the investigation firm find more information on them so we can use it against them.’ Patel emailed a Leeds colleague on the same day, writing: ‘As per Hisham instruction, please can you provide a list of breaches of Gwyn and Shaun.’ Patel to Alrayes: ‘We talked through the items we have but still need specific proof for Shaun and Gwyn.’ Salem Patel (above) was involved in email exchanges with GFH chief Hisham Alrayes seen by Sports Agenda . Again from Patel to Alrayes: ‘Even still, we need to pay them as regular until we have something concrete which can prove gross misconduct. By not paying, we trigger a process which can be very damaging to the club.’ Another email between the GFH pair read: ‘Gwyn — we should pay him tomorrow otherwise we leave ourselves open for constructive dismissal and breach of contract. Before next pay date we need to find strong evidence of gross misconduct, otherwise we have to pay him as per redundancy process. ‘Shaun — we should pay him tomorrow. However if we can prove gross misconduct, we may be able to claw back some of the change of control provision. Suggest investigating all his bank accounts to see if he was receiving bribes.’ Harvey declined to comment, as did GFH. Former Leeds CEO Shaun Harvey was one of the officials, along with Gwyn Williams GFH wanted to sack . ITV Sport, impressed with the way BT Sport cover rugby, are intending to borrow their pundits Lawrence Dallaglio, Martin Bayfield and Ben Kay for this year’s World Cup. There are now more than five billion reasons why Premier League clubs have moved on from the sexist email exchanges last May between chief executive Richard Scudamore and DLA Piper lawyer Nick West. The TV rights package structure that proved so astonishingly lucrative was mainly devised by Scudamore and West. Richard Scudamore secured a £5bn TV deal after selling Premier League's domestic rights to Sky and BT . Warrington Wolves owner Simon Moran is a wealthy concert promoter. Yet even the most generous estimate of Roger Draper’s salary as the rugby league club’s new chief executive means the former Lawn Tennis Association boss has taken a two-thirds pay-cut on his old £640,000 annual package. BT ramp up Sky feud . The latest division of Premier League rights between Sky and BT Sport has done nothing to improve relations between the warring pay-TV networks. BT believe their bidding tactics resulted in Sky paying hugely over the odds for five packages, while BT got their 42 games for a sensible price. Sky claim BT put massive money on the table for the main packages but were outmanoeuvred in the second round. Certainly the importance both sides attached to the match-pick categories — including second and third choices — in the new contract only emphasises that BT’s current deal allows Sky to dominate the selection of games to a far greater extent than BT imagined when their PL coverage started. The Premier League will continue to be shown on Sky Sports and BT Sport until 2019 in a £5.136bn deal . Graphic charts the significant rise of domestic Premier League TV revenue .

This was certainly some night for a curly-hurled guy from Mexico called Guillermo Ochoa. Nevertheless, this was a night that told us something more about the host nation as they look to seek a coronation in front of their own people this summer. This is a Brazil team that will need to improve significantly if it is not to stumble when the stakes grow higher later in the tournament. Luiz Felipe Scolari’s team should certainly reach phase two now. This was a draw that actually suited both teams pretty well, even if the 55,000 Brazilians packed in to the Estadio Castelao went home feeling less than sated. VIDEO Ochoa brilliance denies Brazil . No way past: Mexico goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa makes a superb instinctive save from Thiago Silva (centre) Beaten to the punch: Ochoa clears the ball under pressure from Paulinho . Rising to the occasion: Neymar gets above Rafael Marquez and sends a header towards goal . Saving the day: Mexico goalkeeper Ochoa keeps the ball out, Banks style, as Brazil come close . Comparison: Some people remarked that Ochoa's save from Neymar was like Gordon Banks' from Pele . Super saver: Ochoa gets in the way on the stroke of half-time as David Luiz (left) and Paulinho lurk . Brazil: (4-2-3-1): J Cesar 6; Alves 6.5, T.Silva 6, Luiz 6.5, Marcelo 5.5; Paulinho 6, Gustavo 6; Ramires 6 (Bernard 45min, 6), Neymar 7, Oscar 6.5 (Willian 84); Fred 5 (Jo 67, 5) Subs: Jefferson, Fernandinho, Hulk, Dante, Maxwell, Henrique, Hernanes, Maicon, Victor. Booked: Ramires, Silva.

Subs: Corona, Salcido, Reyes, Pulido, Ponce, Brizuela, Aquino, Pena, Talavera. Booked: Aguilar, Vasquez. Man of the match: Guillermo Ochoa. Referee: Cuneyt Cakir (Turkey). Unquestionably, though, this Brazilian team is deficient. For all the impish genius of the new golden child Neymar, Brazil still lack a through the middle goal scorer. In defenders David Luiz and Marcelo, meanwhile, they have footballers born to play in opposition territory. Sadly that is only half of their job. They created chances last night and they should have taken at least a couple. Ochoa, released by the little known Corsican club AC Ajaccio, who play in France's Ligue 2, had one of those nights he will talk about forever. Conversely, though, Brazil continued to look wide open once the centre of their midfield was punctured and, from that perspective, it still looks as though Scolari has some tinkering to do. Do not, for example, be surprised if Manchester City’s centre player Fernandinho comes in to the reckoning before long as Brazil seek a way to become more resolute. On a wonderful, humid South American night, this was some occasion, some atmosphere and, given the lack of goals, some game. It began at a gallop, with tackles being exchanged with the ferocious abandon of a Hackney Marshes grudge match, and grew in to a night of punch and counter punch. Floored genius: Neymar lies prone on the turf after some rough treatment from the Mexicans . Crowded out: Neymar tries to escape three Mexico defenders on a frustrating night for Brazil . Having a go: Neymar takes a free-kick but the ball arcs just wide of the Mexico goal (below) Back of the net: Neymar found his way into the goal but the ball stayed out . Putting it in: Bernard (No 20) tries to make something happen for Brazil under pressure from Oribe Peralta . At full stretch: Julio Cesar in the Brazil goal dives for the ball . Brazil were the better team and they should have won. Without the help of a referee this time, though, they lacked cohesion at times. For long periods, their rhythm deserted them and there was not a single passage of play that made you think that Mexico were not capable of doing something to spoil the party completely. After the initial frantic exchanges, with the crowd at fever pitch, Brazil settled down to play and the peculiar looking Ochoa was asked to make his two decisive contributions of the first half. First it was Neymar – Brazil’s stand-out player – who was denied. Having almost worked a one-two with Paulinho, Neymar was on the six yard line when a cross from Dani Alves delivered the ball back in to the penalty area. The Barcelona player seemed second best to reach the ball but he leaped well and his downward header seemed destined for the corner until Ochoa pawed it away with his right hand. No pain, no gain: Neymar is left on the floor as Luiz Felipe Scolari shouts at the officials . Showboating: Home favourite Neymar keeps the ball in the air despite the attentions of Andres Guardado . Sent flying: Former Tottenham forward Giovani dos Santos trips over Dani Alves . It was a great save – perhaps the best of the World Cup so far – and he followed it with another just before the interval, this time advancing from his line quickly to smother Paulinho’s effort after Thiago Silva had chested a cross down cleverly in to the Tottenham midfielder’s path. Mexico didn’t create such clear chances early on but they did carry a threat and an ambitious intent that was to manifest itself much later in the piece. In to the second half, though, and once again Ochoa was asked to come to the fore. Not for a while, though. For the first 20 minutes of the second period, Brazil got stuck in one of their feet of clay periods and it was Mexico who pressed, with Andres Guardado and Hector Herrera advancing to clobber drives narrowly off target from distance. Ultimately, though, enlivened by well-times Scolari substitutes, Brazil did come again. Neymar may have done better than drive a shot against the goalkeeper’s knees from an angle before Luiz got his flat feet in a tangle when a chance presented itself courtesy of an Alves pass soon after. Striding out: David Luis attempts to make something happen as Brazil are frustrated . Battling it out: Oscar (left) and Hector Moreno fight for the ball during a tight first half . Getting stuck in: Andres Guardado feels the full force of a challenge by Dani Alves . Chopped down: Mexico full back Miguel Layun is fouled by Dani Alves . Tussle: Ramires (left) tries to get the better of Mexico's defender Andres Guardado . It was, however, the Brazilian captain who went back to the team base cursing himself after spurning the chance of the night with five minutes left. Lucky to still be on the field after almost cutting Javier Hernandez in two moments earlier, the big central defender Silva was completely unmarked when a free-kick from the left dropped on his forehead six yards from goal. At first sight it looked as though Ochoa had saved unbelievably but the replays showed that Silva had the whole goal at his mercy and somehow managed to head the ball towards the only place where it wasn’t going to go in. At that point, Brazil knew they wouldn’t win. It summed up the night, though, that they then almost lost.

The Deputy Prime Minister said it was 'unthinkable' at present that the tournament could go ahead in the country blamed by the West for supplying arms to the separatist rebels accused of causing the deaths of all 298 on board. FIFA this week ruled out calls from some German politicians for Russia to be boycotted, insisting the tournament could be 'a force for good'. Demand: Nick Clegg has called for Russia to be stripped of the right to host the 2018 FIFA World Cup . Call: Nick Clegg has demanded that Russia be stripped of the right to host the 2018 World Cup as the West continue to blame at Russia for causing the shooting down of Malaysia Airlines flight MH17, killing 298 people . Axe: Deputy Prime Minister Clegg says it is 'unthinkable' that Russia could be allowed to host the World Cup . But Mr Clegg told The Sunday Times that allowing it to go ahead without a change of course by president Vladimir Putin would make the world look 'so weak and so insincere' in its condemnation of Moscow's annexation of Crimea and support for the rebels. The EU has added another 15 individuals and 18 entities to the list of those subject to asset freezes and ambassadors in Brussels are expected to extend the punitive actions to state-owned banks' access to capital markets and to the arms and energy sectors. Mr Clegg said however that sporting events should also be part of the package of measures - including the cancellation of Russia's first Formula One Grand Prix, which is due to take place in Sochi in October. 'Vladimir Putin himself has to understand that he can't have his cake and eat it,' he said.

'He can't constantly, you know, push the patience of the international community beyond breaking point, destabilise a neighbouring country, protect these armed separatists in the east of Ukraine and still have the privilege and honour of receiving all the accolades in 2018 for being the host nation of the World Cup. 'That's why I've come to the view that if he doesn't change course it's just not on, the idea that Russia will host the World Cup in 2018. 'You can't have this - the beautiful game marred by the ugly aggression of Russia on the Russian Ukrainian border. 'Not only would Vladimir Putin exploit it, I think it would make the rest of the world look so weak and so insincere about our protestations about Vladimir Putin's behaviour if we're not prepared to pull the plug.' Bid: Russia won the right to host the 2018 World Cup and Qatar was given the 2022 edition of the tournament . He said that despite F1 boss Bernie Ecclestone's insistence that there was no case for abandoning the Grand Prix, 'the question marks I'm raising will only increase over the next coming weeks and months, over the summer and up to the Grand Prix, about Russia's entitlement to host these major events. 'Vladimir Putin is a past master at attending these sporting events and, sort of, pretending almost as if everything's utterly normal and nothing untoward is happening around him. 'And if anyone needed any reminding of how dangerous this conflict is in the heart of Europe, just ask any of the family and relatives of those loved ones they lost in that plane incident last week.' Mr Clegg said the threat of withdrawing the World Cup would be 'a very potent political and symbolic sanction'.

'If there's one thing that Vladimir Putin cares about, as far as I can see, it's his sense of status. 'Maybe reminding him that you can't retain the same status in the world if you ignore the rest of the world, maybe that will have some effect on his thinking.' He did not rule out the United Kingdom as an alternative host given its recent history of putting on successful global sporting events. 'We've got the stadiums, we've got the infrastructure, and we've got the public backing and enthusiasm to host it,' he said. 'That's a decision for other people.

'Markovic, who had looked lively out wide with Raheem Sterling moved to Lambert’s role, was speeding away from Behrang Safari when, for reasons best known to himself, he decided to flick out an arm to keep him back.

Lyndon Lafferty - a childhood friend of the police's main suspect - penned a book on his decades-long hunt for the Zodiac called 'The Zodiac Killer Cover-Up' in which he adds an intriguing new theory as to who the killer is and why he was never caught. Mr Lafferty believes that the killer is a 91-year-old man living in Solano County, California, and that he was protected from investigators by 'power brokers' that refused to stop him. Wanted: A retired highway patrolman believes he has found the infamous Zodiac Killer, pictured here in a police poster from October 1969, the period when he was on the loose in the Bay Area . Code: The Zodiac Killer terrorized the San Fransisco Bay Area from 1968 to 1969 when he killed at least five people. He would routinely send newspapers letters and cryptograms that were so complicated that some have still not been solved to this day . 'Official corruption and political intervention forced the investigation into a top-secret, covert status, giving the insane ZODIAC killer immunity and a license to kill,' said Mr Lafferty in his new book, published on February 8 of this year. The Zodiac Killer terrorized the San Fransisco Bay Area from 1968 to 1969 when he killed at least five people. There was never an arrest, though law enforcement officials followed dozens of clues that all went cold. The killer would routinely send newspapers letters that taunted police and cryptograms that were so complicated that some have still not been solved to this day. Victims: Paul Stine, Cecilia Shepard and Bryan Hartnell were three of those killed or injured by the killer . In the letters, he claimed that he killed 37 people. 'The police shall never catch me, because I have been too clever for them,' the Zodiac wrote in a letter sent to the San Francisco Chronicle. His young victims were either stabbed or shot to death in Northern California and were between the ages of 16 and 29. The San Francisco Police Department closed the case in 2004, but reopened it in 2007. Numerous people have claimed they have identified the killer, but none have ever been confirmed by the police department. The main suspect, Arthur Leigh Allen, was cleared after DNA evidence taken from the saliva of the Zodiac's sealed letters exonerated him. The Hunt: Lyndon Lafferty penned a book on his decades long hunt for the Zodiac called 'The Zodiac Killer Cover-Up' in which he adds an intriguing new theory as to who the killer was and why he was never caught . Adaptation: Robert Downey Jr and Jake Gyllenhaal starred in Zodiac, a 2007 film about the famous case . Mr Lafferty, who went to High School with Mr Allen, claims that the identity of the Zodiac killer has been known since March 15, 1971. The 'Mandamus Seven,' a group of retired law enforcement officers, federal agents, a minister and a District Attorney banded together to prove, once and for all, who the Zodiac really is. The motive for the killings, Mr Lafferty says, was adultery. 'Mind and body ravaged by years of severe alcoholism, his blood-lusting revenge turned him into the most shocking and vicious killer in our 20th century,' Mr Lafferty writes. 'Through his tauntings of the police, his codes, ciphers, and letters, he was on a mission to redeem his shattered ego, to prove that he is better, smarter, and more clever than all the judges and police put together.' Mr Lafferty says that the Zodiac started his killing spree after his wife had an affair with a Solano County Superior Court Judge, according to the Daily Republic. Suspect: After an artist's impression of the killer (left) was released, Arthur Leigh Allen (right) was arrested and question but later released without charge . Mr Lafferty locked onto the Zodiac case in 1970 when he became suspicious of a man he saw parking at Vallejo highway rest stops, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. He tracked the man, who drove a white Chevrolet sedan and looked just like the wanted posters, and decided he had to be the one. One time, Mr Lafferty said, he even confronted the killer. 'I looked into a quivering, snarling face like I was looking to the face of death,' Mr Lafferty said to the Daily Republic. 'It scared the hell out of me.' Mr Lafferty, who said he worked as a code breaker during the Korean War, even claims that the name of his suspect appears in the Zodiac's codes. Chase: Law enforcement officers meeting in 1969 in an attempt to hunt down the Zodiac Killer . Single-minded: San Francisco detective Dave Toschi spent years hunting the murderer . Some have questioned Mr Lafferty's zest for the Zodiac, as so many before him have claimed to have solved the case. Reviews of his book on Amazon.com complain of numerous research inaccuracies and question Mr Lafferty's use of an alias to hide the name of his person of interest. But Mr Lafferty is so convinced that he knows who the killer is that he thinks the killer has his eye on him. Mr Lafferty says he may have been threatened by the Zodiac himself in his own cryptic letter, out of retaliation for publishing his book. 'Many innocent people could spend the rest of their lives in prison if the truth were told,' a letter addressed to Mr Lafferty reportedly said. 'I had to wait until some people, including the suspect's wife, finally died. But that has finally happened recently, and now it's time to tell the story.' Lyndon Lafferty . The letter contained 'evidence' that it was indeed from the Zodiac and was signed 'A Concerned Citizen.' Undaunted, he decided that it was time to blow the whistle. 'I had to wait until some people, including the suspect's wife, finally died,' Mr Lafferty said to the San Francisco Chronicle. 'But that has finally happened recently, and now it's time to tell the story.' Mr Lafferty does have one prominent believer of his theories: Pam Huckaby, the sister of the Zodiac's third victim. 'I am sure Lyndon has the right guy,' Mrs Huckaby said to the San Francisco Chronicle. She claimed that her sister, Darlene Ferrin, was being stalked by a man that resembled the sketches of the Zodiac killer for months before her death. When Mr Lafferty showed her a photo of his suspect, she recognized him instantly.

Reporter Rebecca Evans, pictured at the crash site of MH17, does not know when she will be able to leave Donetsk as the distant rumble of war gets closer . The government, embarrassed by its inability to secure the MH17 crash site, is coming down hard on the rebels who formed the Donetsk People’s Republic five months ago. During the day, a crucial railway bridge leaving the city was blown up, meaning thousands of people who flocked to the train station had to leave and return to their homes. As the airport has been destroyed by the Ukrainian military, the only other option is by road - a highly dangerous route. Today, journalists trying to leave were fired upon at military check points by drunken, Kalashnikov-wielding, inexperienced rebels.

Ukrainian officials have today said their forces advanced to the outskirts of a key town north of the city as they try to retake the stronghold. The move comes as Ukrainian forces appear to have gained some momentum recently by retaking control of territory from the rebels. Russia however also appears to becoming more involved in the fighting. The U.S. and Ukraine have accused Moscow of moving heavy artillery across the border to the rebels. Ukrainian national security spokesman Andriy Lysenko said Ukrainian forces were outside Horlikva, just north of the regional centre of Donetsk. Once they can take Horlivka, 'the direct route is open for the forces of the anti-terrorist operation to the capital of the Donbass region - the city of Donetsk,' Lysenko said.

The Deputy Prime Minister said it was 'unthinkable' at present that the tournament could go ahead in the country blamed by the West for supplying arms to the separatist rebels accused of causing the deaths of all 298 on board. Football's world governing body Fifa this week ruled out calls from some German politicians for Russia to be boycotted, insisting the tournament could be 'a force for good'. But Mr Clegg told The Sunday Times that allowing it to go ahead without a change of course by president Vladimir Putin would make the world look 'so weak and so insincere' in its condemnation of Moscow's annexation of Crimea and support for the rebels. Meanwhile, a full-fledged investigation into the shooting down of MH17 still hasn't started because of the security risks posed by the nearby fighting. U.S. and Ukrainian officials say flight MH17 was shot down by a missile from rebel territory, most likely by mistake. Two military cargo planes, one Dutch and the other Australian, also today flew 38 more coffins carrying victims to the Netherlands for identification and investigation.

All but one of the victims - in their late 40s to their early 80s - are known to have visited the same health clinic in Nashville to get the lumbar epidural jabs. But more than 700 patients who had similar procedures at Saint Thomas Outpatient Neurosurgery Center, in Nashville, could be at risk on top of up to 200 at another clinic where the same batch of drugs was administered, government experts warned. Closed: Nashville's Saint Thomas Outpatient Neurosurgery Center has voluntarily shut down in a bid to contain the outbreak . There are also fears that the deadly . brain bug may be spreading into other states after a 14th fell ill in . North Carolina having undergone similar treatment. Now government health chiefs are probing an . unidentified drug-manufacturing firm as they desperately try to recall . hundreds of samples from hospitals across the state amid fears more may be . infected. 'This is a serious . disease,' said Marion Kainer, an infectious disease expert with the . state health department. 'There is not a lot of experience in treating . this, but we are getting the best experts together.' The outbreak is a rare type caused by a fungus and is not spread from person to person. Doctors think the infections were caused by contamination of the steroid with the fungus, known as aspergillus. Saint Thomas Outpatient Neurosurgery Center has voluntarily shut down in a bid to contain the outbreak. Fears: Dr. David Reagan, chief medical officer for the Tennessee Department of Health, said two more confirmed cases in the past 24 hours brought the total to 14 . The clinic contacted 737 . patients who had lumbar epidural steroid injections between July 30 and . September 20, officials said. But between 100 and 200 patients at Specialty Surgery Center in Crossville, . Tennessee, may have been exposed or at risk because of injections at the same time. Dr. David Reagan, chief medical . officer for the Tennessee Department of Health, said two more confirmed . cases in the past 24 hours brought the total to 14. Fungal meningitis is rare but can be deadly. Although anyone can get fungal meningitis, people at higher risk include those who have AIDS, leukemia, or other forms of immunodeficiency. It is not contagious between people but can be caught by inhaling fungal spores from the environment, often found in bat or bird droppings. In the case in Tennessee, it is believed steroid injections may have been contaminated by the aspergillus fungus. The infection causes inflammation of the membranes surrounding the spinal cord and brain. Symptoms include a severe headache, vomiting, a rash, sensitivity to light and a stiff neck. If untreated, it can result in death. While 13 of those who contracted the infection had received steroid injections for back pain at the Nashville clinic, the other case was reported in North Carolina in a patient who had received the same type of injection. Marion . Kainer, an infectious diseases physician and epidemiologist with the . Tennessee Health Department, said it's still too early to pinpoint the . source. But Kainer . said three lots of injectable steroid used at a Nashville clinic between . July 30 and Sept. 20 have been recalled by the manufacturer. The clinic, the Saint Thomas Outpatient Neurosurgery Center, voluntarily shut its doors Sept. 20. Officials haven't identified the drug manufacturer or the city in North Carolina where one of the cases was reported. Reagan said that publicizing too much information at this time could negatively affect the investigation. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention spokesman Curtis Allen said the agency is working with health departments in other states to determine whether other patients might be affected. He could not say how many people or clinics could potentially be affected nationally. In Tennessee there are about 900 people who received the injections at two clinics during the timeframe under investigation. No one from the second clinic has at this time been found to have contracted the disease, officials said. Allen cautioned that while the injectable steroids were one thing the sickened patients had in common, there could also be other things in common, such as the anesthetic or the antiseptic, and the search for a cause is ongoing. Of the 11 surviving patients in Tennessee, some are in critical condition while others are improving, Reagan said. Health Department spokesman Woody McMillin said so far it has taken patients between seven days and 28 days to develop symptoms. Officials say new cases could yet be identified in coming days." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "All but one of the victims visited the same Nashville health clinic while another fell ill in North Carolina .\nNashville's Saint Thomas Outpatient Neurosurgery Center is shut down in a bid to contain the outbreak .\nBut more than 700 patients who had similar procedures could be at risk on top of up to 200 at another clinic .\nHealth chiefs probe unidentified drug-manufacturing firm as they desperately try to recall hundreds samples ." } ]

During the December 2012 assault, Ashlynn Lillith Peters was beaten and strangled, apparently to quiet her crying.

Jordan Lafayette Prince, 26, is facing life in prison for first-degree murder, abuse of a child and forcible sodomy in St Charles, Missouri . Howell, of O'Fallon, was sentenced after pleading guilty Friday to felony abuse of a child and felony murder in January. Court documents said she sent a series of text messages to her boyfriend - when Ashlynn was just one month old - encouraging him to have sexual contact with her daughter. Howell knew that Prince had sexually assaulted a child in Idaho, according to STLToday.com. The accused killer was not the child's father. The mother reportedly sent a text to Prince which read 'no man loves a girl as much as her father', adding that it would be 'hot' if he had sex with her baby, STL Today reported. The baby's cause of death was ruled as asphyxiation. The prosecution said that the sexual assault, which was carried out with an unknown object, had caused such serious internal bleeding that she would have died without being strangled. The baby also had bruises all over her body. In his opening statement on Tuesday, Assistant Prosecutor Phil Groenweghe described the last moments of the baby's life as 'sheer hell'. The child was rushed to hospital on the morning of her death, with doctors making multiple attempts to save her life. During this time, the couple could not be found and had to be called on their cell phone. Prince's attorney claimed he had nothing to do with the crime and noted that investigators found no DNA belonging to Prince that was consistent with their theory. A roommate, Tony Ruble, testified on the first day of trial that when the couple came home from the hospital, he heard them arguing and trying to get their stories straight. On the second day of the trial, the jury was shown a video-taped confession where Prince broke down and told investigators he had strangled the child. He claimed he made have been rougher with the baby than intended while he was burping her. The accused killer told detectives that he had been sexually abused as a child. The trial continues.

Instead of imaging a bright, ice-covered comet, the probe’s instruments have detected that 67P is in fact darker than charcoal in some wavelengths of light. And scientists working on Rosetta’s Alice instrument have so far failed to find any large patches of water-ice on 67P’s surface. Scroll down for video . An artist's impression of the Rosetta orbiter at comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. Instead of imaging a bright, ice-covered comet, the probe’s instruments have detected that 67P is in fact darker than charcoal . ‘We're a bit surprised at just how unreflective the comet's surface is and how little evidence of exposed water-ice it shows,’ said Alan Stern, Alice principal investigator at the Southwest Research Institute in Colorado. Scientists had previously believed the comet’s surface would contain ice because it was too far away for the sun’s warmth to melt it. The lack of ice could suggest that the comet had been in close with our sun, or a different star, at some point during its journey in deep space. They also found that the 'coma' - or atmosphere - around the comet contains of hydrogen and oxygen. This is surprising as comas are generally thought to be composed of water vapour and dust. Alice is now probing the origin, composition and workings of comet 67P to gather insights that can not be obtained by either ground-based or Earth-orbiting observation. It has more than 1,000 times the data-gathering capability of instruments flown a generation ago, yet it weighs less than 9lbs (4kg) and uses just watts of power. Rosetta has measured the temperature of the comet and determined that . its average surface temperature is about -70°C (-94°F). Although . it may seem cold, that is actually 20 to 30°C (36 to 54°F) warmer than . predicted for a comet at that distance, suggesting its surface will be . quite dusty in addition to being icy. 'This . result is very interesting, since it gives us the first clues on the . composition and physical properties of the comet’s surface,' says Virtis . principal investigator Fabrizio Capaccioni from Rome, Italy. This suggests that much of the surface must be dusty, because darker material heats up and emits heat more readily than ice. The instrument is one of two full instruments on board Rosetta that are funded by Nasa. The agency also provided portions of two other instrument suites. Another U.S. contribution aboard the spacecraft is the Microwave Instrument for Rosetta Orbiter (Miro) Miro is designed to provide data on how gas and dust leave the surface of the nucleus to form the coma and tail that gives comets their intrinsic beauty. Described as ‘the sexiest, most fantastic mission ever’, Rosetta will spend more than a year analysing the comet to help uncover the secrets to life on Earth. The comet itself is about 2.5 miles (4km) long and orbits the sun every six-and-a-half years. It is heading towards the sun, so as it nears the star it will begin to melt more. Zoom in on the image below to find out where Rosetta is at the moment . Five sites were identified on Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko during the Landing Site Selection Group meeting held 23–24 August. The approximate locations of the five regions are marked on these OSIRIS narrow-angle camera images taken on 16 August from a distance of about 62 miles (100km) For a sense of scale, the comet is about three times the size of Ben Nevis and Rosetta is the size of a car with 105ft (32 metre) wings. In November, Rosetta will be the first spacecraft to send a probe, dubbed Philae, to explore the comet’s surface. The target drop zone for a landing on a comet in deep space will be unveiled on 15 September after weeks of analysis to find the perfect location. Throughout this year, astronomers have been monitoring the comet using ground-based telescopes, and they will continue to follow the comet on its orbit around the sun until the end of 2015. Until November, 67P is only visible from the southern hemisphere, and it is currently in a patch of the sky where it is camouflaged against the crowded star fields of the Milky Way. Taken on the 14th August, this image was taken from a distance of about 62 miles (100km) from the comet . This image of comet 67P was taken with the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope on 11 August. The central pixel includes Rosetta, now orbiting comet 67P, but too small to be shown in the image . At more than 500 million km from the sun, the comet is still very faint, so only visible to large professional telescopes, including the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope, or VLT, in Chile. Images of the comet are taken every two nights on average. These are quick snapshot images taken by ESO staff to monitor the comet’s activity, by measuring how its brightness changes over time. The latest image reveals the comet is now clearly active, with a dusty coma extending at least 19,000 km from the comet. ‘Its brightness remains in line with predictions based on ground-based data from previous orbits of 67P/C-G, reassuring us that the comet should continue to behave according to our expectations up to the Philae landing and beyond,’ Esa said in a blog.

Researchers have taken a step closer in the quest to develop a hoverboard that does not rely on water, by levitating objects in 3D using sound waves. While scientists have previously managed to suspend objects in mid-air using what's called acoustic levitation, a team of Japanese engineers have managed to move objects around space in various directions. Bubbles, a screw and a tiny piece of wood have so far been manoeuvred like a hoverboard, but the objects must be inside a complex set-up of four arrays of speakers to be able to fly. The machine, which was created by engineers at the University of Tokyo and the Nagoya Institute of Technology, uses ultrasonic speakers to generate sound waves that cross over. According to the researchers, this intersection creates 'a moveable ultrasonic focal point,' or a cross-over of high frequency noise greater than 20kHz, which is at the upper limit of human hearing. Standing waves - waves that remain in a constant position - provide a suspending force so the focal point can be moved up, down and from side-to-side, in order to support a small floating object such as a screw that is trapped in the standing waves. While scientists have previously managed to suspend objects in mid-air using acoustic levitation, a team of Japanese engineers have proved they can move objects around at will through three dimensional space using a refinement of the technology ." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "The board was invented by French jet ski champion Franky Zapata .\nUsers report it feels like a cross between flying and surfing .\nDevice has a top speed of 16mph and can 'fly' 16ft above water .\nIt can be used on a lake or at sea but water must be at least 13ft deep .\nBoard can be pre-ordered for $2,675 (£1,577)" } ]

But, as a Nazi soldier's letter has revealed, it wasn't just the Fuhrer's fiery rhetoric which had his troops wired. Military doctors were handing out millions of pills to the troops known as Pervitin. The label claimed it was an 'alertness . aid' which should be taken 'to maintain wakefulness'. We know it today . as methamphetamine, or more commonly, crystal meth. High Hitler: Nazi troops, pictured in occupied France, were given an 'aid' to keep them alert which was actually crystal meth . Powerful: German troops popped pills of Pervitin - a drug which we know today as crystal meth . More than 200million pills were dolled out to the Wehrmacht and Luftwaffe between 1939 and 1945. German soldiers nicknamed it 'Panzerschokolade' - meaning 'tank chocolate'. Junkies: Even Hitler himself took intravenous methamphetamine . In Britain, newspapers reported how . the enemy was using a 'miracle pill.' Even Hitler himself was given . intravenous methamphetamine by his physician Theodor Morell. But the reality for many Nazi soldiers and pilots was the nightmare of an horrific drug addiction. Although the stimulant allowed soldiers to maintain long periods of activity, the side-effects were serious. They included dizziness, sweats, depression and hallucinations. There . were soldiers who died of heart failure and others who shot themselves . during psychotic phases. In light of this, some doctors remained uneasy . about giving out the drug. Even Leonardo Conti, the Third Reich's top health official, wanted to limit its use, but was ultimately unsuccessful. In May 1940, a young soldier named Heinrich Böll wrote a letter from the frontline back to his family complaining that he was exhausted by the war. He said he had become 'cold and apathetic, completely without interests'. He asked his family 'Perhaps you could obtain some more Pervitin for my supplies?' Böll explained that just one pill was as effective for staying alert as litres of strong coffee. Better still, the drug seemed to make all his worries disappear and, for a few hours at least, he was happy. Böll would later go on to become one of Germany's most famous postwar writers and won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1972. Millions of Pervitin pills were handed out to Nazi troops to help them maintain 'wakefulness' The Nazis also experimented with a number of other drugs which have remain popular among recreational users today. Research by the German Doctors' Association also showed they . developed a cocaine-based stimulant for its front-line fighters that was . tested on concentration camp inmates. Germany literary great Heinrich Böll wrote to his family about his need for more supplies of Pervitin during the war . 'It was Hitler's last secret weapon to win a war he had already lost . long ago,' said criminologist Wolf Kemper, author of a German language . book on the Third Reich's use of drugs called Nazis On Speed. The drug, codenamed D-IX, was tested at the Sachsenhausen concentration . camp north of Berlin, where prisoners loaded with 45lb packs were . reported to have marched 70 miles without rest. The plan was to give all soldiers in the crumbling Reich the wonder . drug - but the invasion of Normandy in June 1944, coupled with crippling . Allied bombing, scotched the scheme. 'The Blitzkrieg was . fuelled by speed,' said a pharmacologist. 'The idea was to turn ordinary . soldiers, sailors and airmen into automatons capable of superhuman . performance.' Otto Ranke, a military doctor and director of the Institute for . General and Defence Physiology at Berlin's Academy of Military Medicine, . was behind the Pervitin scheme. He found that the drug gave users heightened self-confidence and self-awareness. On . the eastern front, where the fighting was the most savage of the war, . soldiers used it in massive quantities against an enemy that showed no . mercy. In January 1942, one group of 500 troops surrounded by . the Red Army were attempting to escape in temperatures of minus 30 . Degrees C. 'I decided to give them Pervitin as they began to lie down in the snow wanting to die,' wrote the medical officer for the unit. 'After . half an hour the men began spontaneously reporting that they felt . better. 'They began marching in orderly fashion again, their spirits . improved, and they became more alert.' Methamphetamine is a highly-addictive, powerful form of the drug speed. In its crystalline form it is known as crystal meth. It is usually smocked in a pipe, in the same way as crack cocaine, but can also be eaten, snorted or injected. The drug as stimulant and induces a feeling of prolonged euphoria which can last for hours. Other effects include increased alertness, excessive sweating and loss of appetite. It is an illegal class A drug. The maximum penalty for possession is seven years in prison but for supply it can be life. As well as crystal meth, Nazi scientists took a keen interest in a number of other drugs which have since become popular recreational substances. An experimental drug codenamed D-IX was based around cocaine and was found to give soldiers increased levels of endurance. Nazi doctors hoped to mass produce the drug and hand it out to troops in 1944 but the war ended before they could execute the plan. Research has also suggested that they experimented with the hallucinogenic LSD as a form of mind control. Nazi scientists believed it could be used to enhance memory, control behaviour and help with interrogations. Until recently, it was also believed that the German pharmaceutical company Merck developed ecstasy to suppress the appetites of soldiers in World War One. But in 2006 the company trawled through its archives and claimed records showed it was synthesized by scientist Anton Köllisch in an effort to develop a medicine to prevent blood clots." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Millions of pills labelled Pervitin dolled out to troops during war .\nSaid it would help soldiers maintain 'wakefulness'\nDrug was highly-addictive form of speed we know today as crystal meth ." } ]

Provide a succinct and relevant summary of the provided text." }, { "from": "human", "value": "A Brazilian mathematician claims it is possible to predict the results of a lottery draw by applying complicated maths and probability theories. Renato Gianella has found it is entirely possible to predict numbers which are more likely to appear than others, by following the same behaviour patterns as predicted by the Law of Large Numbers. His study called The Geometry of Chance: Lotto Numbers Follow a Predicted Pattern, finds not all combinations of numbers have the same probability of occurring – so in short, it is possible to predict patterns of numbers with a greater chance of being drawn. The mathematician behind the study has created a website which uses colour patterns to show number combinations which are more likely to win the lottery based on previous draws in 20 lotteries from around the world - but you may need more than GCSE maths to decipher the code . The study claims that there is a pattern which is applicable in all lotteries around the world, which can be worked out using a complicated coloured template. Mr Gianella said ‘Lottery should no longer be seeing as a form of a gambling but a true representation of the probabilistic theory and the Law of Large Numbers.’ It isn’t however as simple as being able to pick the six most likely numbers to win the National Lottery, it is however possible to pick several combinations of numbers which are more likely to be drawn based on probability. The mathematician has a website www.lotorainbow.com.br/en/default.asp which allows people to view the likelihood of different numbers being drawn in 20 different lotteries around the world - but readers may need a maths degree themselves to understand it. The maths behind the theory is based on previous draws and patterns which arise from them – previous draws dictate the future probability of certain number being drawn. Combinations of certain numbers are more likely to win than others according to probability. In short not all combinations of numbers have an equal chance of being drawn - but it is still highly difficult to predict actual winning combinations . If you toss a coin you have a one in two chance of getting a head but you might not get one at all. If you toss the coin many times you’re going to move more towards a 50/50 split of heads or tails (i.e. it’ll look more like the probability you’ve been given). Combinations of certain numbers are more likely to win than others. So it’s about looking at the choices you’ve made as a whole rather than the individual numbers. Rather than saying there are 12.271.512 different possible combinations Gianella reduced it to 210 coloured templates, which represent all combinations. He’s then worked out the likelihood of getting each of these combinations. For example, If someone were to choose all low numbers (in the 1-9 range) they have a 0.0007% chance of their template coming up as there’s only 84 combinations of using these numbers. But if they were to choose one across all the different colours (with two purples) they have a 2.6403% chance of their template coming up as there’s 324,000 different combinations that use these numbers. The study says: ‘The frequentist notion states that the probability of a given event relates to the frequency at which such event is repeated. Additionally, as predicted by the Law of Large Numbers, when an event is repeated many times, the average of the results from all events should be close to the expected result. Thus, games of all kinds in which many repetitions occur (such as lotteries) are ideal labs for the study of probabilities. Now a new study shows that not all combinations of numbers have the same probability of occurring in a lottery draw. ‘The study is based on mathematics and probabilities theories applied to lottery drawings. It adopts a coloured template that determines all the possible combinations of numbers, as established by Pascal's rule. The adoption of this coloured template provides an easier understanding, and correct identification, of the combinations of numbers with highest probabilities to win. Through experimentation, the method shows that it is possible to detect that the results of a lottery draw follow the same behaviour pattern as predicted by the Law of Large Numbers. ‘For instance, using the method proposed by Gianella, templates built on previous results from a number of lottery games in different countries show that as more draws are performed, the expected result of each template is closer to the observed result, indicating that a pattern for these combinations exists. Thus, the right choice of combinations can greatly increase your chances of picking the winning combination in your next lottery ticket. ‘The method was tested with more than 20 lottery draws all over the world, and in each case it demonstrates that the probability that a given group of combinations (defined according to the coloured template adopted) will occur is not the same for all groups of combinations and that there are groups that show a higher probability to win.’" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Renato Gianella says it is possible to predict winning lottery numbers .\nTheory is based on patterns as predicted by Law of Large Numbers .\nBrazilian claims not all numbers have equal chance of being drawn .\nHe's developed website to help people select more favorable combinations .\nBut users may need more than basic maths to understand how it works .\nStudy was based on 20 lotteries around the world ." } ]

Dr Taylor studied at the University of Liverpool and Imperial College London, winning a PhD in space plasma physics . He has worked at the European Space Agency since 2005 and was given the top scientific job on the mission in the summer of 2013. The role was a real change from his previous job, which was studying the physics of the northern lights, The Guardian reported. On Wednesday's ESA's Rosetta probe released its Philae lander to attempt the first ever landing of a spacecraft on the surface of a comet. The separation was confirmed at 9.03am GMT, with pictures of Philae approaching the comet expected throughout the day before it lands on the surface at 3.30pm GMT. But the success of the mission now hangs in the balance after a thruster on Philae was found to be faulty. Mission controllers say there is a 50 per cent chance the cold thruster positioned on top of the lander will work, and without it, Philae will have to rely solely on harpoons to attach to the surface of the comet. The cold thruster was designed to push Philae closer to the comet. The scientist is so positive that the mission to land on the comet will be successful that he has already had the moment permanently etched on his body (pictured) To convince his new team of his dedication, Dr Taylor promised that if Rosetta woke up from its hibernation, he would get a tattoo to commemorate the event.

The Prime Minister said ‘tens of millions of dollars’ had been paid to extremists in Iraq and Syria. He said this was helping to promote terror against Britain. Mr Cameron told MPs France, Germany and other countries in the G7 group of wealthy countries had pledged not to pay ransoms at a summit in Northern Ireland last year. But the PM indicated they were not sticking to this agreement. David Cameron, speaking during Prime Minister's Questions today, said ransoms were directly funding ISIS . The Prime Minister’s remarks, in the House of Commons this afternoon, come after ISIS extremists threatened to murder a British hostage after releasing a video of themselves beheading two American journalists. The Briton’s capture emerged in a propaganda video titled 'A Second Message to America', in which US journalist Steven Sotloff is murdered by an ISIS executioner who speaks with a British accent. The murderer is believed to be the same man who beheaded James Foley two weeks ago. Former Lib Dem leader Sir Ming Campbell asked the Prime Minister today whether those who were paying ransoms were aware that the cash was being used ‘to advance the malevolent objectives of terrorism’. The Prime Minister said: ‘There is no doubt in my mind that the many tens of millions of dollars that ISIL has raised from ransom payments is going into promoting terrorism, including terrorism affecting our own country. ‘At the G8, I launched an initiative to try to get other countries to sign up to a very clear doctrine that in the case of terrorist kidnap, no ransom should be paid. Britain continues with this policy; America continues with this policy; but we need to redouble the efforts to make sure that other countries are good to their word.’ Mr Cameron’s remarks are a barely-veiled rebuke to France, Germany and Italy who are known to pay ransoms. The Prime Minister last month faced calls to confront the French President Francois Hollande over claims the country is funding ISIS terrorists by paying ransoms to free hostages. Mr Cameron's remarks today are a thinly-veiled rebuke to European leaders, including Francois Hollande and Angela Merkel, to stop authorising ransoms to terrorists . Britain and the United States refuse to negotiate with terrorists in an effort not to encourage further hostage taking. But this policy is being undermined by European countries negotiating secret deals to free their citizens. Over the last five years ISIS is thought to have earned £75million ransoming more than 50 captives. Kidnapping Europeans has become the main source of revenue for Al Qaeda and its spin off. Four French and three Spanish hostages have been released this year after money was delivered through an intermediary. Fears have been raised that European countries’ policy of secretly negotiating with terrorists is undermining the West’s response to the growing threat from ISIS. Tory MP Andrew Rosindall, who sits on the respected Foreign Affairs Select Committee, said: ‘If they are paying ransoms they are harming the interests of the free world and by playing the game of terrorism by paying ransom money they are funding and furthering the cause of ISIS and Al Qaeda. ‘The French and the Spanish should really look at themselves in the mirror and ask whether this is the right thing to do.’ ‘The Prime Minister should be raising this with President Hollande. The French are undermining all of us by doing this.’ A Foreign Office source told MailOnline it was a concern for the Government. ‘It is definitely an issue,’ the source said. ‘All you can do is emphasise what we do and why we think it is right. A lot of countries won’t talk about it. Some countries will say one thing and another thing happens.’ James Foley (left) and Steven Sotloff (right) were murdered by ISIS fanatics thought to be operating in Syria . But a former senior Cabinet minister told MailOnline that there was no point ‘tweaking the French tail’ because the UK would not get anywhere. He added: ‘They don’t admit it. It comes out through what other people say. When you see a French President on the tarmac greeting a freed hostage you can be fairly sure they paid.’ Militants are now thought to hold more than 20 captives, mostly aid workers, journalists and photographers who they are ransoming in order to raise funds." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "PM said 'tens of millions of dollars' had been paid to Islamist terrorists .\nHe said France, Germany and other G7 countries vowed not to pay ransoms .\nBut Mr Cameron suggested only the US and UK were sticking to this ." } ]

A father suffers from a rare neurological disorder which means he is literally scared stiff. Andrew Latham has hyperekplexia, a neurological syndrome that stops his brain from suppressing shock. As a result, his whole body tenses whenever he hears fireworks, dogs barking, or even someone coughing. Mr Latham, 38, has suffered with the condition since birth. It also meant he was subjected to vile bullying at school - with classmates constantly making noises to make him jump. He said: 'Dogs barking, people coughing, fireworks - basically anything unexpected - startles me and makes me jump.' He must also be extra careful when going about his day-to-day errands, as even crossing the road can be a danger if he's startled by the sound of an engine or beeping horn. Despite this, he continues to support his local football team, Accrington Stanley, and can deal with the raucous noise in the stands. 'But when I'm watching the football I will stand there like anybody else. For some reason, when I'm watching the football, I will stand there like anyone else.' Mr Latham's parents, Janice and Chris, said they knew something was wrong before their son was born. His mother explained: 'When I was about seven months' pregnant I noticed in the womb that he just felt stiff. 'When he was born, he would jump every time we tapped his incubator.' 'Them when he started at school, the children picked up that he jumped whenever the door shut in class. So then, as kids are, they would deliberately make noises whenever he was near. He was very unhappy.' Doctors, however, remained baffled as to what was causing Mr Latham to be so jumpy. His father said: 'We were seen by experts and psychologists. They really couldn't pinpoint what it was. 'First they said it was cerebral palsy, but they ruled that out and then said it was a muscle problem.' Mr Latham's condition, hyperekplexia, stops his brain from suppressing shock. It means that everyday noises such as a dog barking or someone coughing are particularly alarming for him . His mother Janice said: 'When he was born, he would jump every time we tapped his incubator' It wasn't until Mr Latham was 21 that he was finally diagnosed with hyperekplexia - a result of an abnormality in a particular gene in the brain. His neurologist, Professor Kailash Bhatia of University College London Hospitals, explained: 'There are certain chemicals that are important for inhibition of the nervous system. Hyperekplexia is a rare hereditary, neurological disorder that stops the brain from suppressing shock. People with this disorder have an excessive startle reaction (eye blinking or body spasms) to sudden unexpected noise, movement, or touch. Symptoms include extreme muscle tension that prevents voluntary movement. This means the affected person can fall stiffly - like a log - without loss of consciousness. Exaggeration of reflexes and an unstable manner of walking may also occur. 'When these chemicals are not present the brain is more responsive - it becomes more excitable. 'Therefore he would not be able to suppress noise that the rest of us could.' However Mr Latham's case is unique, because as well as the 'jump' reflex, he also has skeletal deformities, slurred speech and movement problems. Unfortunately there is no cure but medics have been able to control the condition with medication. Today he lives with wife, Lynne, and son, Sam, in Accrington, Lancashire. His wife said: 'When I first started going out with Andrew he used to carry a little fact sheet in his pocket about his condition so he could explain it. 'I just remember saying that, at the end of the day, he was just Andrew to me. When we married it was really the best day of my life.' Six years later they had their son, Sam, who has not inherited his father's condition despite the risk being 50 per cent. Mr Latham said: 'Watching my own son being born was incredible. It was the best experience I could ever have asked for.' He is now positive about the future and is now undergoing tests in the hope that medics will be able to help others in his situation. He said: 'I wish there was just a lot more awareness for the general public to realise what I go through every day.' Mr Latham's story appears in a new series of Body Bizarre, Thursday September 25, 9pm on TLC." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Andrew Latham, 38, from Lancashire, has condition called hyperekplexia .\nThe neurological syndrome stops the brain from suppressing shock .\nWhole body tenses whenever he hears fireworks, dogs barking or coughing ." } ]

The Texas born Clark, a co-founder of Netscape, has just launched Comanche, a super-fast super yacht that took a year to build at cost millions of dollars. The 100-foot long cutting edge vessel is sleek, stylish and, according to CNN, can reach a top speed of around 40mph. Scroll down for video . Thing of beauty: Comanche is a 100-foot super yacht that took a year to build and had its maiden voyage in Newport, Rhode Island (above) earlier this month . Fast: The sleek and stylish vessel can reach a top speed of 40mph . Boating enthusiasts: Owner Jim Clark and wife Kristy Hinze (at their 2009 wedding on left and in Sydney this past May on right) are big racing fans . It is an investment that is well worth it for Clark if the yacht does what many believe it will do, and breaks a series of offshore racing marks. That being said, it does seem like an odd hobby for a man who grew up in Plainview, Texas, far from any coastline. 'People spend money on sports and I just don't do golf, I hate it,' said the 70-year-old. 'But I love sailing and the technology aspect.' He became interested in sailing while in the Navy, and bought his first boat in the late 1980s. Video courtesy of Onne van der Wal and Hodgdon Yachts . Not cheap: The boat also cost millions to build . Maiden voyage: The yacht's first race is expected to be the Sydney-Hobart in Australia this December . Good crew: The yacht's skipper is Ken Read, the celebrated American sailor who grew up in Newport . Now, with Comanche, he wants 'to be a record breaker.' He already plans on selling the boat in two years, and in that time has high hopes of not just winning events such as Transatlantic, Transpac, Fastnet, and Middle Sea, but breaking records as he takes the top spot. It had its maiden voyage off Newport, Rhode Island, on October 13, which was photographed by George Bekris, but Comanche's first race will be the Sydney-Hobart in Australia this December, one that is a particular favorite for Clark and his Australian wife, Kristy Hinze. Busy schedule: The boat is also expected to compete in events including Transatlantic, Transpac, Fastnet, and Middle Sea . Not competing: 70-year-old Clark has said that he will not be on board for some of the more competitive races . In his place: His much younger wife Hinze, who is 35, will likely be part of the crew in Sydney . That being said, the Sydney-Hobart is also one of the most difficult and competitive races of the year, and will be a true test for Comanche and its 21 person crew led by skipper Ken Read, the very accomplished and celebrated 53-year-old sailor who grew up in Newport. The 1998 race featured a freak storm that ultimately left six people dead. 'We want records but we have to win the races first and then think about the records,' said Read. 'But to do that the conditions have to be right. You can have the greatest thing since sliced bread but you won't go record breaking if the weather's not right. But if we get into the record books -- and we believe we will - then it's job done.' Priorities: Read has said of breaking records with Comanche, 'We want records but we have to win the races first and then think about the records' Tough start: The boat's first race, Sydney-Hobart, is considered one of the most competitive and had one of the most difficult courses . Late start: Read did not even buy his first sailboat until the late 1980s . And while Clark may be too old to be on board for some of the more competitive races, his 35-year-old wife seems more than ready, starting on December 26 in Sydney. 'My wife's an Australian and a very competitive lady and she wants to sail in Sydney-Hobart,' said Clark.

A group of Shiite men crawl through sand in the Najaf desert, south of Baghdad, after joining the Iraqi Military . The men are among hundreds who joined the military after clerics pleaded for worshippers to volunteer . The men are among hundreds to have signed up to the military after answering a plea from Iraq's most senior Shiite cleric last year. In June, grand ayatollah Ali al-Sistani pleaded with youngsters to volunteer their services in the wake of crippling attacks against the religion by ISIS fighters. Hundreds flocked to military centres across Baghdad, with Iraqi Army officials confident the boost in soldiers would help regain crucial swathes of territory. Since then extremists have faced increased opposition, fighting off Kurdish militias as well as the the army all the while under the threat of airstrike by US and UK led coalitions. Over the weekend 26 strikes were carried out across Iraq and eight in Syria by US forces as part of the ongoing campaign. Mosul, the country's second largest city and an ISIS stronghold, is primed for retaking, it was claimed earlier this week, with residents exasperated with life under the rule of fanatics. According to the former mayor of the neighbouring town of Tel Afar, civilians are 'ready' to join the Iraqi Army in its campaign to take back control of the city. ISIS militants are thought to control around a third of Iraq despite a sustained campaign of airstrikes against fanatics . The Shiite men join hundreds on the front line battling against fanatics, with Kurdish forces in the north also waging war against ISIS militants . Last year Iraqi Army officials said an increase in the number of men signing up to the army would help the country in its fight against terror . In Sinjar, one of the most heated patches of conflict, Kurdish forces fought off extremists' unrelenting gunfire and strikes after months of battle.

While IS fighters have been driven out of the region, Kurdish troops remain under the threat of sniper fire, experts have warned. In Syria however, militiamen and women were filmed celebrating after defeating ISIS militants in the fight for Kobane. Fighters speaking on behalf of extremists admitted they had been overpowered by Kurdish forces following months of bloodshed. It is the latest in a string of blows to the fanatical regime which has also murdered Western and Japanese journalists and aid workers in the past year.

Britain's most notorious Islamist hate preacher was arrested yesterday in a huge police operation. Anjem Choudary, 47, was one of nine men held in a series of co-ordinated dawn raids by counter-terrorist police. The show of force targeted the leadership of radical organisation Al-Muhajiroun, which he founded almost 20 years ago, and was later banned. The arrests came on the eve of the first British air strikes on Islamic extremists waging war in Iraq and Syria. Many of those held across London yesterday have been vocal cheerleaders of the bloodshed in the Middle East. They included Choudary’s close friend, Trevor Brooks, who recently joined a wave of gloating by Islamists on social networks over the murders of hostages at the hands of the British terrorist known as Jihadi John. Experts expressed amazement that it had taken so long for police to take action against the outspoken firebrand preacher. But the operation was launched only after careful consideration of Choudary’s recent public comments against the backdrop of a lifetime of incitement. Sources said the lawyer turned preacher and his followers had become considerably ‘more brazen’ since the explosion of violence in Iraq. Choudary has stepped up his online rhetoric, bombarding his followers with rabble-rousing messages and handing out leaflets in Oxford Street. Scotland Yard said it arrested nine men, aged between 22 and 51, in raids across the capital, and on a property in Stoke. Officers searched 18 addresses across London, including two Tower Hamlets sweet shops run by Choudary’s brother Yazdani. They have seized numerous phones, laptops and desktop computers which have been passed to forensic experts for analysis. Scroll down for video . Being held: Muslim activist Abu Izzadeen - born Trevor Brooks - is also among the men arrested . Investigation: The scene of a Metropolitan Police raid on commercial property this morning in east London . Serached: This Yummy Yummy sweets shop in Whitechapel, east London, was visited by police today in connection with the arrests made by the counter-terror police . All the men were held on suspicion of being a member of, or backing a banned terrorist group and supporting terrorism. The alleged offences, which come under two counter- terrorism acts, carry a maximum penalty of seven years’ imprisonment. Choudary was arrested at an unknown location after fleeing his home two weeks ago in the middle of the night in the wake of threats from far-Right groups. Just hours before he was held, he posted a burst of nine inflammatory messages on Twitter, branding the US bombing raids as a ‘rallying call for Muslims’ and labelling the actions of Western governments in Muslim countries as ‘terrorism’. As recently as last weekend, Choudary made inflammatory remarks about British aid worker Alan Henning, who is being held hostage in Syria. He blamed the British Government for Mr Henning’s fate because of its ‘complicity in torture and rendition’ and said he would never feel sympathy for the 47-year-old. He said: ‘In the Koran it is not allowed for you to feel sorry for non-Muslims. I don’t feel sorry for him.’ Choudary also said the Islamic State was building the sort of society he would ‘love to live in’ with his family. But the father of four, who has spent years living off state benefits, said he would not leave Britain because he was born here. Comments: Choudary's arrest came shortly after he posted a series of nine tweets at about 5am today with an anti-Western tone, referring to the ongoing crisis involving ISIS militants in Iraq and Syria . Map: Anjem Choudary's house is located in Wathamstow, east London. A local resident said the preacher and his family moved out about a week ago. The Yummy Yummy sweets shop in Whitechapel, east London, was visited by police today . His right-hand man Brooks, a former acolyte of Omar Bakri Mohammed and Abu Hamza, was also quietly arrested yesterday. Neighbours said Brooks, 39, now known as Abu Izzadeen, was driven away by plain-clothes detectives. Brooks has revelled in the bloodshed in Syria, taunting Prime Minister David Cameron within minutes of the latest video showing the murder of David Haines. Others held by police included Mizanur Rahman, 31, an online extremist preacher and key lieutenant of Choudary. The former East London web designer boasts of being a student of Omar Bakri and runs a prominent website dedicated to broadcasting his vile views under the name Abu Baraa. Another suspect to be questioned was Abdul Muhid, 32, who was recently seen canvassing students outside the London School of Economics, and has been described as a ‘stalwart’ of Al-Muhajiroun. Choudary has been an inspirational figure for a generation of Muslim extremists, including the fanatics behind the murder of soldier Lee Rigby in Woolwich. He led Al- Muhajiroun, which was repeatedly rebranded in a bid to evade attempts to proscribe its activities. Members gathered under a series of names including al-Ghuraba, Islam4UK and Muslims Against Crusades, but their Islamist mission has always remained the same. Campaigners welcomed the arrests but said they should have been made sooner. Nick Lowles, of Hope Not Hate, said: ‘For over a year, since our own extensive investigations into Anjem Choudary and his disciples, we’ve been saying that more must be done to curb this hate-supporting and recruiting organisation. Arrested: Choudary, 47, is pictured outside the Regent's Park Mosque in north-west London in July 2013 . Metropolitan Police: Scotland Yard said nine men were arrested by counter terror police in London today on suspicion of being members of a banned organisation and encouraging terrorism . Choudary: He has vowed to recruit in prison . By Vanessa Allen . Seen as a recruiting sergeant for Britain’s radical Muslims, Anjem Choudary has played a cynical cat-and-mouse game with British authorities. But the self-styled ‘sheikh’ has been careful to keep his incendiary speeches on the right side of Britain’s hate law. His comments that Woolwich murder victim Fusilier Lee Rigby would ‘burn in hellfire’ and calls for an anti-war march through Wootton Bassett, the Wiltshire town that honoured soldiers who died in Afghanistan, were repugnant, but deemed not to have crossed the threshold for criminal prosecution. His network of supporters, the banned group Al-Muhajiroun, has been the focus of attention for the authorities, yet Choudary has never faced any serious prosecutions. Worryingly, he has warned that jailing him will give him access to a new, captive congregation to radicalise inside prison. Speaking after a Home Office banning order, the preacher said: ‘If they arrest me and put me in prison, I will carry on in prison. I’ll radicalise everyone in prison.’ Choudary, a trained solicitor, has been immersed in radical Islamism since the 1990s when he and firebrand cleric Omar Bakri Mohammed formed Al-Muhajiroun. The group’s supporters praised the September 11 terror atrocity and the July 7 London bombings which killed 52 innocent people in 2005. Choudary has preached that jihad, or holy war, is an ‘obligation upon Muslims’ – an interpretation rejected by moderate Muslim scholars – and has called for a draconian form of Sharia law to be imposed across Britain. Public lashings for the sale of alcohol, amputations for thieves and stoning to death for adulterers would all form part of that dystopian vision. Yet Choudary himself was known as a hard-drinking womaniser with a penchant for excess while studying medicine at Southampton University. The son of a market trader from Welling, Kent, he was known as Andy and switched his studies to law after failing his first-year medical exams, before embracing extremism. Scotland Yard has continued to monitor his speeches and online comments for potential breaches of the law. Meanwhile it has simultaneously provided him with police protection after far-Right groups threatened to attack him. Uniformed officers were stationed outside his home in East London last year after it emerged that Woolwich murderers Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale had both attended Al-Muhajiroun demonstrations. Al-Muhajiroun was officially disbanded after it was banned under anti-terror legislation in 2004 but critics have argued that subsequent spin-off groups formed by Choudary espoused the same radical beliefs and aims. Choudary has called for the ‘flag of Sharia’ to fly over Downing Street and for Britain to be conquered by an Islamic country. Yet his apparent disdain for Britain has not stopped the married father of four claiming up to £25,000 a year in benefits from the British taxpayer. Radicalised at 17: Abu Izzadeen . Radicalised when he was 17, fanatic Abu Izzadeen came to notoriety during hate-filled speeches outside Regent’s Park mosque. The British extremist - born Trevor Brooks - said soldiers were ‘crusaders’ who would rape and murder Iraqi women and children. The married father of three urged a boycott of the Poppy Appeal, claiming anyone who wore a poppy to mark Remembrance Day ‘supported the murder of Muslims’. Izzadeen, 39, who once called the July 7 London suicide bombers ‘praise- worthy’, was born to a respectable Jamaican family in Hackney, East London, but shed his Christian identity on the eve of his 18th birthday. He was said to have been radicalised by Syrian cleric Omar Bakri Mohammed and hate preacher Abu Hamza at Finsbury Park mosque and joined Anjem Choudary’s Al-Muhajiroun. The former electrician and fluent Arabic speaker spent more than a decade preaching and calling for Britain to become an Islamic state and travelled in Pakistan before the September 11 attacks, as part of Al-Muhajiroun. In 2006, Izzadeen told then home secretary John Reid he was an ‘enemy of Islam’ after the minister asked Muslims to step in if they thought children were being radicalised. In an interview on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme, he denounced then prime minister Tony Blair as a ‘murderer’. During an address to his supporters, he was filmed as he said Muslims who joined the Army should face the death penalty under Sharia law, saying their heads should be ‘removed’. Like Choudary, he has lived off the state, claiming up to £1,000 a month in benefits while living in a council house in Leyton, East London. He joined Muslims Against Crusades, which burnt a poppy on Remembrance Sunday in 2010 and whose supporters targeted a forces’ homecoming parade in Luton. Protests by the group and its offshoots featured chants such as ‘British soldiers burn in hell’ and banners including ‘Hell for Heroes’. Izzadeen, who married his wife Mokhtaria in 1998, when he was 23, advertised on the internet for three more wives and said he wanted ‘more than nine children’. The radical described himself as ‘the life and soul of the party’ in the ad on a Muslim dating site and described his personality as ‘passionate, bold, protective, witty and sensitive’.

A photographer called Amos Chapple paid a visit to Stylite monk Maxime but was not at first allowed up onto the pillar. Instead he had to spend four days taking part in seven hours of daily prayers including a four hour stint from 2am until sunrise. When he finally was granted permission to scale the 'dicey' ladder to the top, he was worried that it might be too dark to get back down. After making it to the top, Maxime told Amos that he became a monk after a stretch in prison and decided he wanted to make a change. The monk slept in a fridge when he first moved to the top of the pillar, but now has a bed inside a cottage.

Shortly after the collapse of communism, and the subsequent resurgence of religion in Georgia, Maxime decided to live atop the pillar in the way of the old stylites. He said: 'When I was young I drank, sold drugs, everything. When I ended up in prison I knew it was time for a change.

Since then Maxime and the Christian community in the area have constructed a ladder to the top, rebuilt the church, and built a cottage where Maxime spends his days praying, reading, and 'preparing to meet god'.

The men are fed and housed on the condition they join the priests in praying for around seven hours per day, including from 2am-sunrise, and help with chores. Maxime usually climbs down from the pillar once or twice a week for night prayers and to speak with men who seek help and guidance. Speaking about his isolation, Maxime comments: 'I need the silence. It is up here in the silence that you can feel god's presence.' A sketch of Saint Simeon Stylites, the hermit of the pillar, thought to be the first member of the movement . The stylites were a group of early Christian ascetics who spent long periods of time sitting or standing on top of narrow pillars. The word comes from the Greek stylos for a column. The best known of these pillar monks was the first, St Simeon Stylites, who sat for thirty years from AD423 onwards on top of a column. The record is thought to be held by the sixth-century St Alypius, who is believed to have remained on his pillar for 67 years without a break, for the last fourteen of them lying down because his feet could no longer support him. The Katskhi pillar is a limestone monolith located in the village of Katskhi in western Georgian region of Imereti, about 10 kilometers from the mining town of Chiatura. In pagan times, before the advent of Christianity, the towering Katskhi Pillar was thought to represent a local god of fertility. With the arrival of Christianity in Georgia in the 4th century, the rock came to represent seclusion. The locals call it the Pillar of Life. At the summit of the Katskhi pillar, are the remains of a small church built between the 6th and 8th centuries. The church was probably built by the Stylites, who were early Christian ascetics who stood on top of pillars and preaching and praying. The only written record of the Katskhi pillar occur in the text of an 18th-century Georgian scholar, who noted the church for its inaccessibility. The Church of Saint Simeon Stylites is a historical building located about 30km (19 mi) northwest of Aleppo, Syria. It is the oldest surviving Byzantine church, dating back to the 5th century. St. Simeon was born in 386 AD in a village in the Amanus Mountains. Saint Simeon joined a monastery in this area, but soon decided to seek the religious life alone as a hermit monk. He relocated to the top of a pillar eventually reaching 49ft high to achieve greater seclusion. Soon the monk attracted even greater crowds who came from far and near to hear him preach twice a day.

Looking to cross 60 feet between two turrets at Eastnor Castle in Hertfordshire, these daring highliners are set to appear on new ITV show Red or Black. Top British slackliners Phil Baxter, 24, from Lancashire, and red-shirt Allen Freem, 20, from South Wales, were to show off their skills in front of millions of UK viewers. Elf 'n' safety gone mad: Allen Freem walks between two turrets at Castle Eastnor for Red or Black on ITV. It is the first time slackliners have been granted access to one of Britain's most picture-perfect castles . Don't look down: Allen Freem balances as he walks along the line which is a lot more wobbly than an ordinary tightrope . Slacklines are more like trampolines than tightropes because they move around a lot as the daredevil inches across. On Red or Black competitors fighting for the £1m prize will have to guess whether Phil or Allen will be first to get across. Slackliner director, Russ Holbert, 36, from Poole, Dorset ,was approached by the show's producers to make sure they had the right people for the stunt performed in front of a live audience. 'ITV called my office because we're seen as the leading slackliners in the country,' explained Russ. Daredevil: Phil Baxter walks along the line at the castle in Ledbury. Contestants on Red or Black take it in turns to bet which of them will be first to get across the line . Terrifying: Allen Freem raises his arm above his head as he balances on his way across the wobbly slackline . Daredevils: Allen Freem, left, and Phil Baxter were approached by ITV as they are the best slackliners in Britain . 'They wanted to know about our experience and find out if this feat was even possible. 'We . started to discuss likely candidates and I decided on Phil and Allen . because they both had climbing as well as slacklining backgrounds. 'There was only going to shot at this, so we had to make sure we had people who could pull it off.' Phil has been a slackliner for four years and and Allen for three years - both are seasoned rock climbers in their own right. While . this training has given them nerves of steel and they spent two full . days practising for the stunt, nothing could have prepared them fully . for the pressure of performing at such an impressive venue - as part of a . televised competition. 'Before . the event, Allen and Phil were both saying - is this really going to . happen am I really going to step out over this massive void in front of . masses of people?' said Russ. 'Usually when they highline they're doing it for their own satisfaction. 'Suddenly . when your put in front of a massive crowd of screaming contestants . you've got that added pressure and expectation on your shoulders. 'This is on top of the discipline and concentration you need to complete this incredibly demanding stunt. 'The crowd were all jumping up and down - they couldn't believe how good it went and the realise of tension was amazing. 'Even Ant and Dec couldn't believe their eyes.' Slacklining may be new to most people - but surprisingly the sport has taken off in many parts of Britain. 'For this kind of high-lining you do need to have had years of training and a head for heights,' said Russ. 'But other types of slacklining are hugely accessible and local clubs are running across the country. 'This is the entry point to more spectacular stunts like this one. 'It's fantastic exercise with the kinds of eye-popping acrobatic moves that young people love to see and take part in.' High line: Allen Freem edges across in the ITV competition.

The royal’s charitable foundation was last year gifted more than £2.8 million by supermarket Waitrose, who took over the once loss-making Duchy Originals brand two years ago and have turned it into an international success story. In 2011 their total royalties donation was just £645,000 - amounting to a staggering 348 per cent increase in just 12 months. Sales increase: A selection of Duchy Originals products which are sold at Waitrose . It also helped offset a fall in public donations to Charles’s charities, which supports organisations working to combat everything from climate change to youth unemployment, from £12.2 million in 2011 to £10.5 million last year. The donation also meant that the prince was able to invest £6.2 million in good causes, up from £4.7 million from the previous 12 months. Duchy Originals was set up by Charles in 1990 as a means of raising money for deserving causes by selling organic produce grown at his Highgrove estate. It quickly branched out, selling everything from bacon to soap, biscuits and cordials, but was hit hard by the recession and at one point saw annual losses of £3.3 million. In 2010, however, the prince did a deal . with Waitrose, giving it excusive rights to sell the Duchy range - which . has expanded to more than 260 products including a gardening and beauty . line - in return for a substantial donation to his charitable . foundation initially set at £1 million. Good causes: Prince Charles, set up Duchy Originals to raise money for charity, but the brand struggled to make a profit until the supermarket took over . Benefits for all: Thanks to Duchy Originals' success sales, Waitrose donated 2.8million to charity in 2012 . The range has become a huge success - it now exports to more than 25 countries across the globe including Japan and Taiwan - and led to a significant increase in royalties, as revealed in its annual accounts published yesterday. Mark Price, managing director of Waitrose, said: ‘These figures reflect an extremely successful year for Duchy Originals from Waitrose, meaning that we have significantly exceeded our original £1 million commitment’. Charles’s charitable coffers were also swelled by a doubling of the monies raised by opening up the gardens at Highgrove to paying visitors and by selling a range of themed gifts including napkins, boot racks and even gin. This leapt from £312,000 in 2011 to £618,000 last year. The accounts also revealed that The Prince of Wales’s Charitable Foundation has managed to pay off a controversial £20 million loan taken out in 2007 to support the purchase of Dumfries House, a stately home in Ayrshire with a world-class collection of Chippendale furniture, which is now open to the public. Charles personally stood by the deal, despite being accused of putting his entire charity empire at risk by taking out such a substantial loan." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Prince Charles' Duchy Originals is sold at Waitrose .\nDonations have increased by 348 per cent in a year ." } ]

In another publicity coup this year, she secured the presence of a London taxi driver's daughter, Lauren Marbe. The 17-year-old made headlines recently when she notched up an IQ test score of 161, one point higher than Einstein. 'I read about her in the newspapers and so I phoned her up and she said, \"It is not my world but if you invite me I will come\",' Renouard said.

Kyra Kennedy, great-niece of assassinated president JFK, arriving at the ball in Paris on Saturday . The event, held at the Automobile Club of France, is based on the debutantes balls that were once an established part of the British upper class's social calendar. These elaborate affairs launched well-born young women into polite society and, with luck, also introduced them to a potential husband. But the balls started to fall out of favour in the late 1950s, after Queen Elizabeth abolished the practice of the debutantes also being presented at court. In recent decades, they have been reinvented as glittering fundraisers with the emphasis on philanthropy and contact-building rather than finding a potential suitor. Among the new generation of balls, Renouard's alone offers participants the chance to borrow an haute couture dress for the night. 'They are not interested in finding a husband, they are too young,' she said. 'What they prefer is the dress, because even if they are privileged they have never been to an haute couture house.' In previous years Le Bal has attracted the daughters of European aristocracy, as well as Hollywood A-listers such as Demi Moore and Bruce Willis, Andie MacDowell, Clint Eastwood and Sylvester Stallone. The ball now has a strong showing from Asia, but Renouard says she still has to crack Russia. 'I'm not good on Russia. It's all about networks...', she said.

Now new research has shed light on what it terms as 'extra-corporeal experiences' by studying the brain activity of a Canadian woman who claims she can drift outside her own body at will. Scientists believe the left side of several areas of the brain associated with kinaesthetic imagery (the perception of the sensation of moving) are responsible for the sensation of being able to leave your body and float above it – and that more people might have similar experiences than thought. Scientists believe the left side of several areas of the brain associated with kinaesthetic imagery are responsible for the sensation of being able to leave your body and float above it. Increased activity was seen in the middle and superior orbitofrontal gyri (A,B,D) the supramarginal gyrus (B) and inferior temporal gyrus (D) Researchers at the University of Ottawa came across a psychology graduate who admitted she could have voluntary out-of-body experiences before she fell asleep. The 24-year-old revealed she is able to see herself floating and rotating horizontally in the air above her body and can sometimes watch herself from above while remaining aware of her real body. However, as she said she feels no emotions when she has the experiences, the scientists decided to classify her experiences as extra-corporeal experiences (ECE) as strong emotions such as shock, often accompany out-of-body experiences, Popular Science reported. Researchers came across a psychology graduate who admitted she could have voluntary out-of-body experiences before she fell asleep. The 24-year-old revealed she is able to see herself floating horizontally in the air above her body, rotating and can sometimes watch herself from above (illustrated) ‘I feel myself moving, or, more accurately, can make myself feel as if I am moving,’ the student told the researchers, who documented her report in their study. ‘I know perfectly well that I am not actually moving. There is no duality of body and mind when this happens, not really. 'In fact, I am hyper-sensitive to my body at that point, because I am concentrating so hard on the sensation of moving. ‘I am the one moving – me – my body. For example, if I “spin” for long enough, I get dizzy. ‘I do not see myself above my body. Rather, my whole body has moved up. I feel it as being above where I know it actually is. ‘I usually also picture myself as moving up in my mind’s eye, but the mind is not substantive. It does not move unless the body does,’ she said. Andra Smith and Claude Messier used a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scanner to examine the student’s brain and believe she is the first person studied to have an ECE on demand without any brain abnormalities. They discovered that the ECE involved a ‘strong deactivation of the visual cortex’. But it also ‘activated the left side of several areas associated with kinesthetic imagery’ in the brain, which the scientists think is what cause mental representations of bodily movement. While the researchers have acknowledged the rarity of finding someone to study who can have ECEs on demand, they believe that outer-body-experiences could be more common than thought. This idea is based on the fact that the student thought that being able to float outside her body was not unusual. According to the study: ‘The . participant described her experience as one she began performing as a . child when bored with “sleep time” at preschool. She . discovered she could elicit the experience of moving above her body and . used this as a distraction during the time kids were asked to nap. She . continued to perform this experience as she grew up assuming, as . mentioned, that “everyone could do it.”’ The scientists discovered that the extra-corporeal experiences (ECE) involved a 'strong deactivation of the visual cortex' (pictured). A shows the right side and B the left) ‘She appeared surprised that not everyone could experience this,’ the researchers wrote in the study, which was published in the journal Frontiers in Human Neuroscience.

Instead the pair fear loneliness if the other one dies first from natural causes. Identified only by their first names, Francis, 89, and Anne, 86, they have the support of their three adult children who say they would be unable to care for either parent if they became widowed. Craig Ewert, 59, whose death in an assisted suicide in a Swiss clinic was broadcasted on television . The children have even gone so far as to find a practitioner willing to carry out the double killings on the grounds that the couple's mental anguish constituted the unbearable suffering needed to legally justify euthanasia. The couple, from Brussels, are receiving regular medical treatment for age-related ailments. Francis has received treatment for prostate cancer for 20 years and is unable to spend a day without morphine and Anne is partially blind and almost totally deaf. They always go out shopping together because they are both scared that one day the other will not return home. They decided that life in a care home was not an option because of their fear they would end up bedridden without the strength to insist on euthanasia. They are also afraid that a good retirement home would cost more than their combined pensions and that they would have to dig into their savings to afford it. They planned to commit suicide on February 3 next year, their 64th wedding anniversary, by placing plastic bags over their heads after taking an overdose of sleeping pills. The couple decided that life in a care home was not an option because of their fear they would end up bedridden without the strength to insist on euthanasia . 'We want to go together because we both fear of the future,' said Francis. 'It's as simple as this: we are afraid of what lies ahead. 'Fear of being alone and above all, fear of the consequences of loneliness.' He told Moustique, a Belgian online news service, that they eventually opted for euthanasia because they were too scared to attempt to commit suicide. 'It takes courage to jump from the 20th floor and I am unable even if I wanted to do it,' said Francis. 'It takes courage to hang, it takes courage to jump into the canal. But a doctor who makes you a shot and lets you gently fall asleep? It does not take courage.' Their son, John Paul, 55, approached their doctor to request their euthanasia - which was legalised in Belgium in 2002 - but the doctor refused because there were no grounds for it. John Paul found another doctor willing to perform the killings in an unnamed hospital in Flanders, the Dutch-speaking part of Belgium in which 82 per cent of euthanasia cases are performed. Francis said he and Anne were grateful for the arrangement. 'Without our son and our daughter, it would never have succeeded,' he said. 'We are not sad, we are happy,' he continued. 'When we were told we could leave life together smoothly we were on a little cloud. It was as if we had spent all that time in a tunnel and suddenly we came into the light again.' The couple's daughter has remarked that her parents are talking about their deaths as eagerly as if they were planning a holiday. John Paul said the double euthanasia of his parents was the 'best solution'. 'If one of them should die, who would remain would be so sad and totally dependent on us,' he said. 'It would be impossible for us to come here every day, take care of our father or our mother.' The double euthanasia will not be first in Belgium, a country where an average of five people a day die by lethal injection. In 2012 deaf twins Marc and Eddy Verbessem, 45, were granted their wish to die after they learned they would likely to become blind. Mental anguish is also increasingly being used as a justification for the procedure with one of the most sensational cases involving transsexual Nancy Verhelst, 44, killed by lethal injection after doctors botched her sex change operation. Earlier this month Frank Van Den Bleeken, a rapist and murderer, became the first prisoner to successfully argue for the right to die by euthanasia on the grounds that his mental anguish meant that he was suffering. Nonetheless, the Belgian couple's plan for a double death has shocked opponents of assisted suicide and euthanasia in the UK where Lord Falconer's Assisted Dying Bill reaches committee stage in the House Lords in November, . Lord Carlile of Berriew, who investigated euthanasia for a parliamentary inquiry, said: 'This is an example of a very dangerous use of euthanasia in entirely inappropriate circumstances. 'What it demonstrates is that the most stringent safeguards would be needed if this was going to be legalised in the UK.' Liz Carr, the actress who plays disabled forensics technician Clarissa Mullery in BBC1's Silent Witness, said the casual practice of euthanasia in Belgium had developed from a law designed initially for hard cases. 'Once you allow a doctor to assist you to end your life when the patient defines when they are suffering I think you are opening the door to an extension of that law,' she said. 'It may be everyone's intention that initially it will be only for a small group of people but how you monitor that and how you enforce that is practically impossible.' 'It is terrifying where this could go,' she added. Dr Kevin Fitzpatrick of Not Dead Yet UK, a network of disabled people against euthanasia, said death in Belgium was now regarded 'as lightly as stepping off a bus'. 'The pro-euthanasia lobby says there is no extension from terminally ill candidates yet everywhere we turn in Belgium non-terminally ill people are being euthanised.' Dignity in Dying which is campaigning for a change in British law, has dismissed fears that Lord Falconer's Bill might lead to similar horrors. It insists that the Bill is based on a safer model of assisted suicide 'which has been working safely for over 17 years and has never been extended beyond the criteria of terminal illness'." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Francis, 89, and Anne, 86 are planning to die in first 'couple' euthanasia .\nThe pair from Brussels fear loneliness if the other one dies first .\nThey say they have the full support of their three adult children .\nFrancis has received treatment for prostate cancer for the past 20 years ." } ]

Celebrating: Nathan Hageman, with his current girlfriend Jane Makepeace. Court documents have shown that he attacked a former partner - but lied to show bosses and said it was a man . ITV bosses last night launched an investigation into the affair, raising the possibility that the winner could be stripped of his seven-figure fortune if it is deemed he breached his contract by lying to executives. Attack: Amy McLean was assaulted by gameshow winner Mr Hageman, court records show . After his win, Mr Hageman – who had been working as a bricklayer following his release from prison – was forced to admit publicly he had been given a five-year prison sentence after apparently breaking into a man’s home and assaulting him.

Mr Hageman was found guilty in November 2006. He served half his sentence in HMP Bullingdon in Oxfordshire before being released in 2009. He was put on licence for the remainder of his term. Talking about the incident after his win, he said: ‘I got mixed up with the wrong woman, someone I shouldn’t have been involved with. I decided to get out of the situation and ended up with another woman, who was such a nice girl – completely different. ‘But the woman I left wouldn’t leave me alone. Then I started getting calls from a guy in Reading. He was very threatening. I think she’d got involved with him. Pressure: Nathan Hageman reacts after he wins the £1m, alongside his girlfriend and the show's presenters And and Dec . ‘I tried to brush it off but he kept saying he was going to harm me. I was concerned for my mum, sister and niece and I went there and assaulted him. I was an idiot for doing it, I know, but that’s the state of mind I was in.’ He even claimed he had made his peace with the man in question. However, Reading Crown Court said yesterday: ‘On November 7, 2006, Nathan Hageman pleaded guilty to one count of aggravated burglary and one count of assault occasioning actual bodily harm. ‘On December 8, 2006, he received a sentence of five years imprisonment for aggravated burglary and two years imprisonment for the assault occasioning actual bodily harm to run concurrently.

This is normal in any production, whether it be theatre or ceremonies. 'We need to make sure the show comes in on time to make sure spectators can get home on public transport, so we have taken the tough decision to cut a small stunt bike sequence of the show. 'We will be paying contracts in full and giving full credit in the programme. The show is set to finish between 12am and 12.30am.'

Helen Mirren, who won an Oscar for her screen portrait of the Queen, has revealed, exclusively, that she will play the monarch again — this time on the West End stage. Mirren will star in a play that exposes some unlikely alliances between the Queen and a few of her 12 prime ministers, who stretch from David Cameron all the way back to Winston Churchill. Called The Audience, the play — which is bound to be one of the hottest tickets in town in years — will begin preview performances at the Gielgud Theatre on February 15, with an official opening night tentatively marked for March 5. Producer Matthew Byam Shaw told me it’s scheduled to run to June 15. Next week, during a short break from shooting the thriller Red 2 with Bruce Willis, Mirren will travel from Montreal to London to liaise with the play’s creative team. She will meet with director Stephen Daldry, writer Peter Morgan (who penned the 2006 film The Queen) and designer Bob Crowley, and do a second read-through of the play. They will also discuss how best to deal with the age range — the actress, 67, will portray the Queen from the time she acceded to the throne, aged 25, through to her 80s. ‘That’ll be a challenge,’ she said drily. However, Mirren observed the Queen’s ‘unbelievable consistency in everything’ — from dress to hairstyle to professional attitude — made the age problem not as insurmountable as it might seem. ‘Her voice has changed, and I can use that — she had a terribly posh voice when she was young,’ Mirren said, skilfully mimicking the youthful Queen’s cut-glass received pronunciation. ‘But now even the Queen, while she isn’t quite dropping the ends of her lines — though her grandsons do! — there’s a tiny bit of estuary creeping in there. I can use all that to signify the age range, and we’ll come up with other things.’ Mirren told me that when Morgan initially emailed her about doing The Audience, she wasn’t wild about the idea, and shot back a salty message that started: ‘You B*****d!’ ‘I certainly don’t want to be known as the actress who played the Queen, so there was a slight sense of apprehension about that element,’ she told me. By the time she turned up for a reading of The Audience back in June, she said she’d made up her mind to turn the project down. ‘I was thinking: “You shouldn’t really be doing this, Helen. I don’t think it’s right.” And the thought of doing a play — you can’t go anywhere for six months!’ But then she walked into the room and saw Daldry, Morgan, Crowley and producers Byam Shaw, Robert Fox and Andy Harries (one of the producers of The Queen) — and had a change of heart. Class act: Helen Mirren as Her Majesty in The Queen alongside Michael Sheen as Tony Blair . Winning performance: Helen Mirren portraying the Queen reading anout the death of Princess Diana in the 2005 film . ‘I thought: “Here are some of the best people at what they do in the world. If you don’t do it, you’re an absolute idiot!” So here we go again.’ She revealed that the play is about the history of Britain as much as it is about the relationships between Her Majesty and her prime ministers. ‘I think it’s about what power means and how people handle it. Not the Queen, incidentally, because she is comparatively powerless. But how power is held in the hands of these men — and one woman — and the effect that has on their personalities and their psyche. ‘In the beginning, the Queen is the young, nervous, unknowledgeable one. ‘But as she progresses through them, they become the nervous ones. She’s the one constant, through a revolving door of prime ministers.’ Historical: Helen Mirren staring as the first Queen Elizabeth in the channel 4 series Elizabeth I in 2005 . Versatile: Helen Mirren is currently filming the sequel to the 2010 comedy thriller film RED . Morgan is working on a new draft of The Audience and, for now, no one knows exactly which prime ministers will be showcased. Tony Blair didn’t appear in the first draft, but he may take a bow in the new version that Mirren will read next week. ‘She was a very young woman with Churchill, who was trying to bamboozle and then educate her; and she has gotten on better with some than she has with others,’ producer Byam Shaw told me. He added that people may find it ‘surprising who she gets on well with’. He said Morgan conducted extremely thorough research, talking to assorted PM’s principal private secretaries and Cabinet ministers. John Major had been ‘very helpful’, he said. Meanwhile, Mirren and her fellow stars from Red 2 will be in town filming over the next few weeks. ‘We’ll be shooting up London,’ Mirren joked. ‘What a contrast of characters: from retired assassin to Queen!’" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Helen Mirren will take up the role of Queen Elizabeth II again - but this time on stage .\nThe talented actress will portray the Queen from the time she acceded to the throne, aged 25, through to her 80s .\nThe Audience will begin .\npreview performances at the Gielgud Theatre on February 15 ." } ]

And Qatar’s royal family are now planning their own British palace in the capital as well. The Gulf state’s rulers have submitted plans to convert three prime properties in London’s Regent’s Park into a huge mansion, set to become the UK’s first £200million home. Scroll down for video . Sheikha Mozah bint Nasser Al Missned - one of Qatar’s former emir Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani's wives - bought 1, 2, and 3 Cornwall Terrace (pictured) last year and is converting the three into a palace . The garden sits at lower ground level, at the back of number 1 Cornwall Terrace, and is accessible by two sets of stairs. In the summer it can be dramatically lit to look like a ballroom . Sheikha Mozah bint Nasser Al Missned, 55, one of the three wives of Qatar’s former emir Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, bought the homes for an estimated £120million last year. The Arab royal, who met the Queen at Windsor Palace in 2010, has now hired architects and lawyers to oversee a transformation of the properties into one 33,000 sq ft mansion, boasting a spa, heated swimming pool, beauty salon, butler and nanny quarters, a children’s floor, games rooms, powder rooms, massage areas, two lifts and a gymnasium. Her family also own the Shard, the tallest skyscraper in Europe, Harrods and the Olympic Village. The 13 bedroom palace will be the London home of Sheikh Hamad’s son and Qatar’s current emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, 34, who was educated at Harrow and Sandhurst. There, he will be able to relax in the mansion’s spa and sauna and dip in the pool, which is set in Portland stone. Heated kitchen seats will keep the family warm in the English winter and, for the summer, there are Italianate gardens dramatically lit to look like a ballroom.

Lights are controlled by an iPad and staff live in their own quarters in part of the building, which comprises of the two end properties on the terrace. When completed, the mansion is expected to be the most valuable residential property in London in private hands. It is likely to be worth more than the most high profile investments of recent times in the capital – including Dudley House on Park Lane, a grade II-listed mansion which was also bought and renovated by Sheikh Hamad, 62, and is valued at £200 million. It is expected to be worth about double the highest selling residential property in the UK - a penthouse at One Hyde Park in Knightsbridge, which sold in May this year for about £140 million. The Qatari royal family bought the three properties - 1, 2 and 3 Cornwall Terrace - last year. The Grade 1 listed buildings were designed and built in the 1820s by Decimus Burton, the protégé of John Nash, the architect who designed Buckingham Palace. It was named after King George IV, whose titles included the Duke of Cornwall. The homes were badly damaged in the Blitz. After refurbishment, one of the properties was the official residence of the New Zealand High Commissioner from 1955 until the seventies, with lavish parties for royalty, celebrities and ambassadors. It was subsequently overtaken by hippy squatters in 1975 and was hailed as a ‘temple’ for the ‘Rainbow People’ and ‘Divine Light Mission’ - before being redeveloped in 2007 by a property company and sold. The 33,000sq ft mansion will boast a spa, heated swimming pool, beauty salon, butler and nanny quarters, a children’s floor, games rooms, powder rooms, massage areas, two lifts and a gymnasium . Representatives of the Qatar royal family said after joining the houses together, the new single mansion ‘will be ordered through a series of zones creating a sense of hierarchy’. Sheikha Mozah bint Nasser Al Missned, when she met the Queen at Windsor Palace in 2010 . Plans suggest the ground floor of the neoclassical house will be used for a reception area and lobby, leading through on one side to a large dining room and on the other to the family’s main kitchen, living room and breakfast rooms. The first floor boasts formal sitting areas, a cigar lounge and three entertainment rooms. The living areas are above, with the second floor featuring a huge master bedroom, with two adjoining ‘dressing rooms’, a master bathroom and a bedroom pantry. The third floor is set aside for the children, with boys and girls wings, games rooms, playroom, pantry and a kids’ lift. The nanny lodgings are also on this floor, with an en suite bathroom. The lower ground floor, meanwhile, is to boast the heated swimming pool and gym areas, which are to be separated by a glass wall ‘to create a sense of light and space’, as well as massage rooms, another ‘entertainment area’ and a hair salon. Another part of the floor will serve as staff quarters, with a catering kitchen, wine cave and a security office controlling a system of state of the art cameras protecting the property. Fittings for the mansion will be made from the most sought after materials, including a carrara marble and champagne gold metal fireplace. The bathrooms will be provided with a minimum of 3 air changes per hour, while each room’s temperature can be controlled individually. The ideal temparatures have been specified for the family at 23C in living areas, 22C in bedrooms and between 25C and 30C in the pool area. The 13 bedroom palace will be the London home of the couple's son - Qatar’s current emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, 34, who was educated at Harrow and Sandhurst . In its current form, one Cornwall Terrace alone has seven bedrooms, 11 reception rooms, nine bathrooms, a private gym and a garage with number-plate recognition that can accommodate two limousines. The adjoining property – formed by already combining 2 and 3 Cornwall Terrace – has six bedrooms. Its dining room, restored to its former Regency glory, seats 16. Extensive works to be done include, structural realignment, part excavation of the lower ground floor, corridors to connect the properties and a ‘secret’ passage linking the new dining room and study. The state of Qatar has been ruled by the Al Thani family since the mid-19th century. It is an absolute monarchy, which means the monarch has unrestricted political power over the state and its people. The current head of state is 34-year-old emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, and there has been eight rulers in total since the House of Thani was established in 1850. Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani handed power over to his son - one of his 24 children - in June 2013. He was the first ruler, in a succession of three Qatari rulers to ascend to power without resorting to a coup, following his father's seizure of power from his own father in 1995. Sheikh Tamim married his second cousin in 2005 and had four children, and then married his second wife - the daughter of the Qatari Ambassador to Jordan - in 2009 and has a daughter and a son. Oil was discovered in the country in 1940, transforming its economy and it is now the world's third largest natural gas reserves and oil - in excess of 25 billion barrels. The country now has a high standard of living, with no income tax and one of the lowest tax rates in the world and less than one per cent of the population is unemployed. ‘These are to be occupied and used by the same, large family who has the long leasehold interest in both properties. They intend to use these properties as their London home,’ the planning application states. For almost 150 years, Qatar has been ruled by the Al Thani family. Sheikh Hamad was the ruling Emir of Qatar from 1995, when he seized power from his father Sheikh Khalifa in a bloodless palace coup d’état supported by the armed forces, cabinet and neighbouring states. He has more than 20 children from three wives, a fortune of £1.5billion and his family’s huge state investment fund owns more of London than the Crown Estate. His son Tamim took over last year after being educated in the UK at Sherborne School, Harrow and Sandhurst Military Academy. While not always in line for the title, the boy replaced his own brother as crown prince in 2003. He continues to outlaw all political parties and govern according to sharia principles. In Qatar, gay people face the death penalty and women are considered second-class citizens. Some of Qatar's residents are accused of acting duplicitously over jihadist terror – supporting allied efforts against Islamic State but also supposedly funding Sunni militants. There has also notoriously been much controversy over alleged corruption in the country’s successful bid to host the World Cup in 2022. Qatar has been accused of treating foreign workers with horrendous cruelty, depriving them of pay, any rights and confiscating passports. In recent years, Qataris are thought to have bought almost one in 30 homes in London worth more than £2million. Qatar owns buildings including the Shard, the UK’s biggest skyscraper. Qatar own several London buildings including the Shard (pictured), the Olympic Village and 30 homes . The Qatari royal family also used its sovereign wealth fund to buy London department store Harrods in 2010 . After Qatar’s sovereign wealth fund bought Harrods for £1.5billion in 2010, Sheikh Hamad said: ‘We are investing everywhere. Even your Harrods - we took it.’ The Qatari royal family saved almost £6million by buying the properties before last week’s stamp duty changes.

Looking uncannily like a giant eye in the sky, the Helix nebula lies 650 light-years away, in the constellation of Aquarius.

This object, called the Helix nebula, lies 650 light-years away, in the . constellation of Aquarius. Also known by the catalog number NGC 7293, it . is a typical example of a class of objects called planetary nebulae. Discovered in the 18th century, these cosmic works of art were . erroneously named for their resemblance to gas-giant planets. Planetary nebulae are actually the remains of stars that once looked a . lot like our sun. These stars spend most of their lives turning hydrogen . into helium in massive runaway nuclear fusion reactions in their cores. In fact, this process of fusion provides all the light and heat that we . get from our sun. Our sun will blossom into a planetary nebula when it . dies in about five billion years. When the hydrogen fuel for the fusion reaction runs out, the star turns . to helium for a fuel source, burning it into an even heavier mix of . carbon, nitrogen and oxygen. Eventually, the helium will also be . exhausted, and the star dies, puffing off its outer gaseous layers and . leaving behind the tiny, hot, dense core, called a white dwarf. The . white dwarf is about the size of Earth, but has a mass very close to . that of the original star; in fact, a teaspoon of a white dwarf would . weigh as much as several elephants. The glow from planetary nebulae is particularly intriguing as it appears . surprisingly similar across a broad swath of the spectrum, from . ultraviolet to infrared. The Helix remains recognizable at any of these . wavelengths, but the combination shown here highlights some subtle . differences. The image is eerily reminiscent of the Eye of Sauron from the Lord of the Rings films. The intense ultraviolet radiation from the white dwarf heats up the . expelled layers of gas, which shine brightly in the infrared. GALEX has . picked out the ultraviolet light pouring out of this system, shown . throughout the nebula in blue, while Spitzer has snagged the detailed . infrared signature of the dust and gas in yellow. A portion of the . extended field beyond the nebula, which was not observed by Spitzer, is . from NASA's all-sky Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE). The . white dwarf star itself is a tiny white pinprick right at the center of . the nebula. The brighter purple circle in the very center is the combined . ultraviolet and infrared glow of a dusty disk circling the white dwarf . (the disk itself is too small to be resolved). This dust was most likely . kicked up by comets that survived the death of their star. Before the star died, its comets, and possibly planets, would have . orbited the star in an orderly fashion. When the star ran out of . hydrogen to burn, and blew off its outer layers, the icy bodies and . outer planets would have been tossed about and into each other, kicking . up an ongoing cosmic dust storm.

Kate explained: 'At the moment I'm using Elle Macpherson The Super Elixir supplement. I add it to my juices.' Kate is the latest in a long line of celebrities to confess their love of the product - fellow socialites Nick Grimshaw and Daisy Lowe love it too. So what is all the fuss about? Like fellow models Miranda Kerr and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Elle swears by the power of all things green and she is so convinced by their potency, that she unveiled her very own brand. Secret weapon: Kate loves Elle Macpherson's Super Elixir, which is packed with 45 key ingredients including alkalising super greens, Chinese herbs, and the miatake mushroom . Elle this year introduced The Super Elixir by WelleCo, a range of alkalising food supplements, which she describes as her drug. The product was formulated over many years especially for Elle by Dr Simone Laubscher PhD, a Harley Street nutritional doctor specialising in disease prevention. The powder, which can be sprinkled over salads or mixed into juices and smoothies, claims to support healthy nutrition and ensure your body is working to its optimum function. Speaking about the inspiration behind her new range, Elle told MailOnline: 'I'm on the run a lot and if I'm not nourished, I don't feel good. 'For years, I was taking vitamins and powders. I tried alternative medicine, acupuncture, reflexology. 'I'm a pescatarian, I don't drink, do drugs or smoke so what else can I do? I wasn't unaware of wellness but something wasn't working for me and I told my doctor \"I don't feel great\". 'She told me my body was acidic, it was down to stress, travel and lack of sleep.' That's when Elle decided to create the Super Elixir. The product is designed to support healthy nutrition at a cellular level and aid the digestive, endocrine (hormonal), circulatory and nervous systems. Work hard, play hard: The model, who makes around £12 million a year starring in campaigns for brands including Dior, Yves Saint Laurent and Burberry, is known for her love of a good time . Packed with 45 key ingredients including alkalising super greens, Chinese herbs, and the miatake mushroom, Elle claims that just 10g of the powder daily contains all the vitamins, minerals and trace elements to assist wellness and vitality. 'I've spent years tweaking it and refining it and now the recipe works so beautifully. After a few weeks, my body went into cruise mode and I felt uplifted, lost weight, didn't get sick and didn't crave sugar. 'My body hummed along and functioned properly,' said Elle. It seems that it's helping Kate's hum along too; the model's career - and social life - is going stronger than ever.

According to current calculations, comet C/2013 A1 (Siding Spring) is set for a near miss that will bring it within 23,000 miles of the surface of the Red Planet. But the unpredictable nature of comet orbits, which can change as jet-like geysers of steam erupt from their surfaces as they near the Sun, means it could pass further away, or veer into a direct collision course. Incoming! A computer generated image shows how a . comet might look from the surface of Mars. A recently discovered comet . could be on course for a cataclysmic impact with the surface of the Red . Planet . Respected astronomer Phil Plait, author of Slate's Bad Astronomy blog, has calculated that even if the comet is just nine miles across - a low estimate - an impact with Mars would cause a one billion megaton explosion. That, he says, is 25million times larger than the largest nuclear weapon ever tested on Earth. Much more likely, however, is that the comet will just miss Mars, which will nevertheless mean that the planet will pass through the cloud of sublimating gas spewed from the visiting rock as it draws closer to the Sun. Like asteroids, comets are large chunks of space rock that orbit around our solar system. Unlike asteroids, however, comets are packed with ice. This ice is not necessarily just water, but also things like carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide that on Earth we generally think of as gases, which in the chilly reaches of space are frozen inside the nucleus of the comet. As the comet hurtles along its orbit closer to the Sun, these substances turn directly from solids to gases, often erupting from the comet through geyser-like vents. The comet's trajectory: Astronomers have . calculated that, according to its present orbit (indicated in blue), . C/2012 A1 will make its closest approach to Mars in October 2014 . At the moment, C/2013 A1 is over a billion kilometres from the Sun, somewhere past Jupiter, which means it is still very cold. However, as it draws closer it will began to vent more gas, changing its path and surrounding the nucleus with a large fuzzy cloud known as a coma - which can be up to several hundred thousand kilometres across. That means that the comet's coma - which is also filled with grit-like rubble from the comet itself - could be bigger than the distance the nucleus is predicted to miss Mars. 'If that does happen, it’ll be the gods’ own meteor shower for the Red Planet,' Plait writes. It will also be interesting to see the effect of the grit shower on Mars's two lumpy, potato-shaped moons, Phobos and Demos, which would be peppered with grit as the comet streaks past. Images of C/2013 A1 captured by the Vatican Observatory VATT on January 20: Although it was still over a billion kilometres from the Sun when this image was taken it already shows a small amount of coma activity . And if the nucleus does hit Mars, the effect would be apocalyptic for the planet. Estimates for the size of the comet's core range from nine to 30 miles across, and astronomers say it will be moving at a phenomenal speed of 120,000mph upon impact - giving it huge kinetic energy. Such an impact would leave a scar on Mars hundreds of kilometres across, says Plait. Even worse for Earth-based observers, it would almost certainly destroy all our probes in orbit around and on the surface of the planet. 'The ejecta would come screaming off the planet and sent every which way in orbit around Mars,' Plait writes. 'It would be like orbiting into a shotgun blast.' Comet C/2013 A1 was first spotted on January 3, making it the first comet to be discovered this year. Extrapolations of its orbit predict it will make its closest approach to Mars in October next year." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Comet C/2013 A1 could pass within 23,000 miles of Mars in October 2014 .\nBut the unpredictable nature of comet orbits mean it could veer closer .\nIf it hit the planet it would leave a crater hundreds of kilometres across .\nHuge blast would destroy all probes on and around the Mars ." } ]

Officers tackled unarmed Tremaine McMillian to the ground and pinned him there by his neck on Haulover Beach in Miami, Florida, in scenes captured on camera by his mother. In interviews Tremaine said he was merely walking along the beach, feeding his puppy from a bottle, when police riding all-terrain vehicles swooped late on Monday morning. Unnecessary roughness? Tremaine McMillian is pictured being restrained by a Miami-Dade Police officer on Haulover beach, after allegedly threatening them with 'dehumanising stares' and clenched fists . But Miami-Dade police have claimed they were forced to restrain the youngster after he refused to follow orders, clenched his fists and gave them 'dehumanising stares'. Their version of the story has led to the boy being charged with resisting arrest with violence. Maurissa Holmes, Tremaine's mother, captured video on her mobile phone that shows a burly police officer with his arm wrapped tightly around the neck of the slender teenager while another binds him with handcuffs. 'He started choking me, and as he was choking me, I urinated on myself because I couldn't breathe,' said Tremaine in an interview broadcast on WSVN News. Ms Holmes told CBS Miami: 'I ran over with my son and used my cell phone when I saw my son and he couldn’t breathe. 'There was no reason to slam him on the ground like that the way they did. He’s a child, not an adult. For them to jump off their ATV and do this, this is wrong. I want justice. You don’t do that to a child.' Terrifying: As one officer pinned down Tremaine by his neck, a second policeman bound him with handcuffs, in an attack the teenager found so frightening he wet himself . Tremaine's family say that just before the police moved in he had been playing in the surf with friends. He said he was holding his six-week-old puppy when officers came up and demanded to know what he was doing. Miami-Dade Police say they approached Tremaine because they saw him roughhousing with another teenager, although they admitted that as they approached officers realised there was not sort of fight going on. Nevertheless, officers went on to demand that Tremaine stop what he was doing and account for himself. 'I asked, why, and he told me, because he said so, and I asked why again,' Tremaine told WSVN. 'That's when he told me, \"Show me where your mom's at\".' He said he was following the orders and leading them to his mother when police leapt from their vehicle, slapped the puppy from his hand, grabbed him and slammed him to the ground. He says his puppy, Marco, was injured in the attack and in television interviews the animal can be seen wincing as he touches its paw. Tremaine pictured with his mother Maurissa Holmes: Police tell a different story which claims that the 14-year-old was uncooperative and became combative and clenched his fists as police attempted to detain him . Police tell a different story. Miami-Dade Police Detective Alvaro Zabaleta said it was just after 11am when officers apparently saw Tremaine body slamming another teenager onto the sand. Police reports say they then realised that no fight was going on, but Detective Zabaleta told CBS Miami that Tremaine refused to take officers to his parents and they were forced to leave their ATV to detain him as he started to leave the beach area. According to the police report, Tremaine became combative and clenched his fist as police went to hold him. 'He attempted to pull his arm away, stating, \"Man, don't touch me like I did something,\"' the report ways. Detective Zabaleta said Tremaine's actions indicated he was 'resisting officers' and meant he had to be taken into custody. 'Of course we have to neutralize the threat,' said the detective. 'When you have somebody resistant to them and pulling away and somebody clenching their fists and flailing their arms, that’s a threat.'

It was not the sort of surface where you could blast out the opposition, not the pitch we expected, but the one thing that has kept England interested is a bit of swing which keeps Jimmy Anderson in the game. Just as the senior batsmen responded in this third Test with runs for Alastair Cook and Ian Bell, so the experienced bowlers in Anderson and Stuart Broad were brilliant on Tuesday. Bad day at the office: Chris Jordan struggled against India on day three of the third Test in Southampton . Stick with him: England selectors must keep faith in Chris Jordan or risk ruining his confidence . The way they kept going and found the right lengths was outstanding and Cook used them well. Chris Jordan had a bad day but the England selectors must not go back to the policy of ‘in-out’ with players that was such a problem in the bad old days. They then lose confidence and rhythm and don’t know if they’re coming or going. England should have made a decision between Jordan and Ben Stokes at the start of this summer and stuck by it. What do they do at Old Trafford? Leave Jordan out and bring Stokes back? Jordan has a few technical issues but they were there before and he needs to bowl and bowl. He has a bit of a jerky action, as well as this quirk with his thumb across the seam and three fingers on the ball. He’s got things that can go wrong and then finds himself in trouble. Bring on the big guns: James Anderson and Stuart Broad (R) stepped up to give England hope of levelling . If you’re out of form as a batsman you can nick it and walk off but if you’re a bowler you have to stay out there and work through it. The fact we didn’t mention Jos Buttler much throughout the day suggests the debutant kept well, and Jordan certainly tested him with a few down the leg side. The catch on the leg side that should have been given off Moeen Ali was an impressive one, too. Moeen, meanwhile, keeps chipping in with wickets and coach Duncan Fletcher will be fuming about the way India gifted England a wicket either side of tea. It’s as if India are not sure whether to block Moeen or try to blast him out of the attack. Chipping away: Moeen Ali after Rohit Sharma is caught by Stuart Broad at the Ageas Bowl . Safe hands: New boy Jos Buttler gets ready to catch a skied shot from Ajinkya Rahane . Chris Woakes was OK in the Tim Bresnan role but that only works if you have a spinner who can contain and attack, and without that you have to ask whether England have picked their best seamers here. Liam Plunkett or Steven Finn could have given them more wicket-taking potential. Cook had a good day, highlighted by him having mid-on and mid-off up to Rohit Sharma. It would have been easy to drop long-off back but he tempted Rohit into the shot which got him out and that was promising. I would have liked to see a gully employed more often but to have India 323 for eight on a flat pitch was a fine effort from the captain and his senior bowlers." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "England restricted India to 328-8 on day three of the Third Test .\nEngland's lead bowlers James Anderson, Stuart Broad were in fine form .\nChris Jordan fared less well but selectors need to keep faith in him .\nMoeen Ali continued to chip in with a pair of wickets at the Ageas Bowl ." } ]

He said he and Mr Hughes, 26, from Worcestershire, 'felt compelled' to take up arms. 'I could not justify sitting back in the UK and watching IS pretty much do what they like,' he told Sky News. Upon their return they were detained at Heathrow Airport and questioned for six hours, although they were not arrested and were released before their homes were placed under monitoring by counter-terror police. Mr Read, who had a brief stint in the Second Battalion, The Duke of Lancaster's regiment, said: 'The counter-terrorism police have got our houses red-flagged in the sense of if any calls come out from that area they will be straight to our house. We have got panic alarms fitted in both our houses now.' Mr Hughes, who served three tours of Afghanistan with the Army, added: 'There's patrols purposely put out in case of said event would happen.'

The pair also revealed they had resolved to take their own lives if they felt they could be captured by the militants, who were battling Kurdish forces to take control of the Syrian border town of Kobani. 'If at any one point we honestly, genuinely felt they were coming coming for us, 'it's definitely over', if we had rounds on us, if we had weapons on us then keep one for yourself,' Mr Read said.

Dangling and winding their way up the mountain's steep cliffs, engulfed by thick black smoke which is used to ward off the bees, the elders stab at the hives to jostle honey out. Using another stick, he balances a basket to collect the chunks of honeycomb he's knocked off, before lowering it hundreds of feet to the waiting tribe below, from the remote hilltop village in central Nepal’s Kaski district, who are watching the ancient tradition which dates back to around 11,000 BC. Most of the nests are located on steep inaccessible, south-west facing cliffs to avoid predators and for increased exposure to direct sunlight . As the thick, acrid smoke rises upwards the hunter waits patiently for the bees to disperse so that he can cut the exposed hives . First the group collects foliage to make huge fires to smoke out the honeybees from their hives. Once the bees are driven off and sedated, the dozen or so hunters begin to harvest the outsides of the hives. The Nepalese tribes say the most difficult job is the 'cutter' the beige suit-wearing men who climb up a 50-meter rope ladder that’s been secured at the top and bottom of the cliff. He then uses two bamboo sticks, known as tangos, to gather the honey. With one he slices at the exposed honeycomb while using he uses the other to catch the falling honeycomb. What he doesn’t catch falls to the base of the cliff, leaving it for the other tribal members, particularly children, below. A young boy from the nearby village feasts on a piece of freshly cut honeycomb that has fallen to the ground . At the end of a hard days harvesting the Gurung men tuck into the wild honey for some much needed energy . But this Nepalese tribe is one of the many that faces losing its way of life, thanks to a changing climate and a reduced bee population, which puts both the tribal food supply, and the greater ecosystem, in jeopardy. Modifying a solution, Nepal has started cashing in on the many international tourists that want to experience the honey hunter's way of life in the Himalayan foothills, as well as the recent influx of tourists, before the bees disappear completely. The tourists are heading to Nepal from across the world, using trekking agencies that organise journeys to the remote parts of the country on the Annapurna circuit, and these companies have now realised the draw of the honey hunting spectacle, charging almost $1,000 to go on a 'guided honey trek'. The honey hunters have been tempted by this potential short-term financial benefit, and in turn are tempted to harvest their honey out of the normal season in 'staged' events. However, these face damaging the cliff walls and the nesting hives, as tourists will need to bring modern climbing gear with them which could possible hasten the already jeaporadised Nepalese honeybees demise. As the honey hunter descends the rope ladder, the blood, blisters and bee stings that are synonymous with this treacherous tradition become visible . After a 3 hour trek back up to the village carrying approximately 20kg of honey, a hunter enjoys a hard earned piece of honeycomb by the fire . Further problems come from the increased exporting of the Himalayan honey, which is sold to Japan, China and Korea for use in traditional holistic medicines. Spring 'red' honey is the most profitable, making upwards of £30 per kilo, and is increasingly exported worldwide. The knock-on effect of this is the increased profitability in trade has meant the ownership of the cliffs transferred from the government to the tribes, which could lead to an even quicker demise in the hives as the tribal ways are being replaced by more rough trade gathering. One of the Gurung men watches from the base of the cliff as the cutter repositions himself on the rope ladder 200ft above . Using one of the bamboo poles known as a tango to push the basket hanging beside him up against the cliff face, the cutter catches the honeycomb as it falls before the basket is then lowered to the ground .

Van Gaal is considering his options for the West Ham match as he looks to cope with the absence of injured defenders Jonny Evans, Phil Jones and Chris Smalling, as well as the banned Tyler Blackett. Admitting that he was aware of the injury history of Evans, Jones and Smalling, Van Gaal believes he can solve the problem. ‘I have been told (about their injury records) and now they are confirming that,’ he said. ‘But I have good hopes that we shall improve in that matter because normally I don’t have any injuries. ‘As a good example, for a player who was many times injured — Arjen Robben — in my season at Bayern Munich he was never injured. ‘You do that by training sessions that adapt to the players’ level. It was not only Robben but every player at Munich. Chris Smalling is one of many Manchester United players to have under-performed since Van Gaal took over . Wayne Rooney, Tyler Blackett and Daley Blind were among those who struggled at the King Power Stadium . ‘We are doing that here in the same way, only less than I have done with Bayern Munich. We have to improve the level and intensity so the players can play the games.’ Questions have been asked about why Van Gaal did not buy world-class defenders during the club’s big-money summer spending spree. At Leicester, a Van Gaal team conceded five for what the Dutch coach feels is the first time in his career. However, the 63-year-old insisted he did try to sign a big-name central defender. Van Gaal defended his way of operating and expects his side to bounce back against West Ham on Saturday . Referring to failed attempts to recruit Mats Hummels from Dortmund and Thomas Vermaelen from Arsenal, Van Gaal said: ‘Maybe we were in the market already in August for the right central defender. ‘You never know. But I don’t want to discuss that with you. I do understand (the criticism) because I as a manager have never conceded five goals. Never. ‘Maybe once, but I cannot remember. As a player, yes, more than five against, but I was not a very good player — a top player — so I played in regular clubs. ‘But as a manager I never conceded five.’ The Dutch manager missed out on defensive targets in the summer, including Thomas Vermaelen (right)" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Louis van Gaal concedes his players are taking time to adapt to him .\nRobin van Persie revealed a crisis meeting was held after Leicester match .\nUnited lost 5-3 to the Foxes, prompting Van Gaal to accept that his team have major problems .\nThe Dutchman is without 10 players through injury or suspension .\nUnited take on West Ham at Old Trafford on Saturday .\nVan Gaal admits he tried to sign a central defender in the summer ." } ]

It came hours after his father criticised President Obama for the 'hate' he had directed at his son in the wake of the fatal shooting of the unarmed black 19-year-old that has caused outrage across the nation. Robert Zimmerman said on CNN's Piers Morgan Tonight: 'The fantasy or mythology that he . chased a person is absolutely false. He stopped . someone from disarming him and shooting him. He didn’t pull out a gun . and shoot him.' Scroll down for video... Defence: Robert Zimmerman Jr spoke out about his brother and described him as the perfect neighbour . Robert Jr insisted that, contrary to media reports, his brother was responsible and friendly as he said: 'He's the neighbour that everybody would want to have. He goes out of his way to help people - he always has.' And he added that police footage of the killer after his arrest proved that he was injured in a fight with Trayvon: 'To me his nose looks swollen in that video. I’m his brother.' Robert Jr claimed his 28-year-old bother was on his way to Target when he followed Martin because he looked suspicious in the gated community where there had been several break-ins. He said George was reaching for his phone to call 911 while confronting Martin when the 17-year-old attacked him. 'He never got to make that phone call because he was attacked by Mr. Martin,' he said, adding that the screams heard on a 911 call made by a neighbour during the confrontation sound like his brother. 'Despite those screams, no one came to his aid,' he added. Targeted: George Zimmerman's father, Robert, appeared on camera for his interview as only a shadow, afraid to show his face on TV . Speaking out: This is the first time someone in George Zimmerman's family has been interviewed on TV following the shooting . Mr Zimmerman also insisted that his . 28-year-old brother would never utter the word 'c***', as he is accused . of doing on another 911 call in reference to Martin. Before ending his appearance on the show he alluded to the existence of another witness who saw the confrontation between Zimmerman and Martin 'from the first blow' and would back up his story. He spoke after . Zimmerman's father had earlier said he was shocked to see 'hate' coming from . President Obama and other public figures. Robert . Zimmerman Sr, a 64-year-old Vietnam veteran and retired magistrate . judge, said his family has received 'thousands' of death threats and . become the targets of overwhelming public vitriol in the aftermath of . the shooting in Sanford, Florida. He . defended his son's actions and claimed he was left no choice but to . open fire after Trayvon told him 'you're going to die tonight' while the . unarmed 17-year-old was beating the neighborhood watch volunteer. 'I never foresaw so much hate, coming . from the president, the Congressional Black Caucus, the NAACP,' Robert . Zimmerman told Fox Orlando Wednesday night. 'Every organization imaginable is trying to get notoriety from this or profit in some way.' Obama famously said, 'If I had a son, . he would look like Trayvon,' in his remarks about the shooting. He also . called for a full investigation to 'get to the bottom of exactly what . happened' George Zimmerman, it was revealed earlier this week, is a registered Democrat. Threats: Robert Zimmerman claims that as Trayvon Martin (right) was beating his son George (left), the teen told him 'you're going to die tonight' Hatred? Robert Zimmerman says President Obama has helped ratchet up the pressure on his family . The elder Zimmerman would not show his . face on camera during the interview -- the first time he has spoken out . on television. Instead, the local TV station showed just his shadow. He described a life where his son was . forced to flee his home, and he and his wife were also forced to leave . theirs to hide out while the case attracts international publicity and . thousands of angry protestors. 'We, the entire family, we basically don't have a life,' he said. They cannot do anything in public that includes giving their names, he said, including seeking medical care. He called the negative attention on his family 'unimaginable.' 'I'm sorry all the hate that's going around,' he said of the anger toward his son. Robert Zimmerman said George is 'colorblind' and was mentoring two black children before the shooting occurred. He said the campaign against his son, especially from the lawyer representing Trayvon's parents, is a smear. 'How he is being portrayed is an absolute lie,' he said. Robert Zimmerman said his son, who is half-white and half-Hispanic, began following Trayvon because he didn't recognize the boy. He looked suspicious, he said, because he was walking in the grass behind the townhouses in the gated community where he lived, rather than walking in the road or on the sidewalk. Kevin Cunningham is the Howard University law student who created the petition that demanded that authorities prosecute George Zimmerman. The 31-year-old, who describes himself as the 'super Irish' son of activist parents, had no idea his online appeal would grow to become Change.org’s largest ever petition, amassing more than two million signatures in three weeks. It helped draw international attention to Trayvon Martin's shooting and attracted support from people who identified themselves as family members or friends of the 17-year-old. Cunningham, who told msnbc that he 'doesn't believe in black and white', transferred the petition to Martin's parents because he wanted to remain behind the scenes. Additionally, when the 911 dispatcher that Zimmerman called told him he didn't need to follow the teen, he didn't go back to his car only because he wasn't sure of the address where he had stopped and seen Trayvon, who was wearing a hoodie. Robert Zimmerman said his son walked up the street to find a street sign so he could figure out where, exactly he was. It was then, that Trayvon approached him and attacked him, Zimmerman claims. Meanwhile, . a video that emerged Tuesday night, that shows Zimmerman being brought . into the Sanford police station for questioning in handcuffs. ABC News, which obtained the video, says Zimmerman said he appears uninjured in the surveillance camera shots. Zimmerman . claimed to police that Trayvon punched him in the face, breaking his . nose, then jumped on top of him and bashed his head into the sidewalk, . putting a gash in his head. However, none of those wounds were visible from the video. On NBC's the Today Show, Zimmerman's lawyer Craig Sonner, said the video proves nothing. The . quality is 'very grainy' and Sonner said police cleaned up his client's . wounds before bringing him in for a police interview. Suspect: George Zimmerman walks through a police station in Sanford, Florida, in this frame grab taken from police video on February 26 2012.

And Lucy Clode, 17, was undoubtedly looking forward to the trip to New York with her mum Carolyn - presumably to hit the shops, see the sights and maybe even take in a show. What probably wasn’t in her plans was an unexpected online flirting session with a Hollywood superstar almost twice her age. Scroll down for video . What's going on here?: Schoolgirl Lucy Clode, 17, has claimed James Franco tried to meet up with her in a series of Instagram and text messages . Striking up conversation: James allegedly started chatting to Lucy after meeting her outside the the theatre where he was performing Of Mice And Men on Broadway . Not wasting any time: The actor appears to start asking Lucy how old she is and whether she has a boyfriend . Unluckily for A-list actor James . Franco, Miss Clode offered him nothing but a gentle knockback – because . she was on holiday with her mum. In . the Big Apple this week, the excited Scottish teenager spotted Franco . outside the stage door of the Broadway production in which he is . starring at the moment. Miss . Clode, who attends prestigious independent school Dollar Academy in . Clackmannanshire, reached for her mobile and took some pictures of the . James Dean and Spiderman star, and then - as teenagers are wont to do – . she turned the lens on herself and took some ‘selfies’ with the . 35-year-old box office hit in the background. It . is understood that Franco spotted Miss Clode taking the photos and . shouted to her that she should put the photographs on the online . picture-sharing site Instagram and ‘tag’ him so he would be alerted to . them. According to Hollywood gossip websites, the pair later started an internet conversation that led to the now-famous rejection. In . what appear to be screenshots from Instagram, Franco works fast to . establish where Miss Clode is from and how long she will be in New York. He . then seems to fire off three questions in quick succession: ‘You’re . 18?’ ‘Who are you with?’ and ‘Do you have a bf (boyfriend)?’ Making a move: The alleged messages show James asking Lucy if he should 'rent a room' in her hotel and attempts to convince her it is really him . 'Don't tell': The teen asks the star to send her a photo of himself holding a piece of paper with her name on, which he apparently does . Miss Clode replies: ‘Nearly 18, my mum and not if you’re around.’ Franco then asks exactly when her birthday is and where she is staying in New York. The . conversation then appeared to switch to text message, and Franco asks . ‘Can I see you? You’re single? What’s the hotel? Should I rent a room?’ When . Miss Clode, from Dollar, voices concerns the conversation could be an . April Fool by an imposter, Franco posts a picture of himself to prove it . is genuine. The sensible teen then decides: ‘I’ll come back when I’m 18.’ Franco responds: ‘If you don’t want to meet text me when you do.’ The . screenshots of the conversation have taken Twitter and US gossip sites . by storm – although it is unclear whether they are genuine or not, and . fans claimed they could just be a publicity stunt. It . is worth noting that Franco’s next film is the story of a high school . teacher who is dating one of his pupils – and several eagle-eyed online . commentators last night floated the suggestion that the exchange with . Miss Clode could be a sophisticated joke. One . man who has come out of the story very well is Miss Clode’s boyfriend . Brodie Dickson – an 18-year-old fellow Dollar Academy pupil who seemed . pleased to have beaten Franco in the love stakes. During . a conversation with a friend posted on Instagram, Miss Clode said: . 'James Franco asked me to meet him alone Romy! It was really him and I . rejected him!! [what] am I doing?!' 'Why are you thirsty for underage ones?': James tweeted this after the news broke but later deleted it . Meeting: Lucy shared this photo on Instagram with James in the background outside the Broadway theatre he had performed in, sparking the flirting . She then added: 'I am going to regret this for years - it's given me a confidence boost though lol.' The . friend named Romy then said: '\"Damn strait [sic] it should also give . @dbrodieb a f****** huge confidence boost that you'd say no to James . Franco for him hahaha that is true love. @dbrodieb who appears to be Lucy's boyfriend, said: 'I'm on top of the world Romy!' Another woman of the Clode family – Miss Clode’s grandmother Beryl Sussex – seemed equally unimpressed with Franco. What controversy?: James ignored the claims on Thursday and instead boasted that he now has 1.6million Instagram followers . Publicity stunt?: Lucy shared this photo in Times Square on Instagram. James' alleged actions could be to promote his new movie Palo Alto, in which he plays a soccer coach who seduces his 14-year-old babysitter . 'Not if you're around': Lucy, who also posted this photo of herself and her mother, apparently told James she was 'nearly 18' and that it didn't matter whether or not she had a boyfriend . She said: 'At our age we don't know who this actor is - I've never heard of him. 'Trust our Lucy though, she is a very pretty girl and she's just finding her feet now as a young woman. 'I'm not surprised she gets noticed. But better that she doesn't marry a hollywood star just yet!' Franco . has not released a statement regarding the incident but did Tweet in . reference to a comment that he liked younger women saying: 'I’m not! I . hope parents keep their teens away from me. Thank you.’ - with a link to . an Instagram photo that has since been removed. The . age of consent in New York is 17, so even if the exchange is genuine, . Franco is not doing anything wrong in the eyes of the law – but his . actions drew criticism from fans last night.

Mangli Munda, from a remote village in the eastern Indian state of Jharkhand, wed the canine in a lavish ceremony. The wedding was hastily organised by village elders after a local guru led Mangli's parents to believe that the teenager possessed ill-luck and that marrying a man would bring destruction to the family and her community. Scroll down for video . Ruff deal: An 18-year-old girl in India (pictured) was ordered by village elders to marry a dog (left) to lift a bad-luck curse that's hanging over her . Ceremony: The dog, Sheru, a stray, falls asleep during the lavish ceremony . The baffled dog, Sheru, a stray found by the girl's father, was brought to the wedding in a chauffeur driven car and welcomed by revellers. Mangli, who has not been to school, said she was not happy to wed a dog, but insisted that it will help change her fortunes. The hesitant bride said: 'I am marrying a dog because the village elders believe that my evil spell will be passed on to the dog. 'After that is done, the man I will marry will have a long life.' Mangli's father Sri Amnmunda agreed. He said: 'The village elders told us that we should organise the wedding as soon as we can. We had to make sure that the evil spell is destroyed. Tradition: Rituals being performed during the wedding in the remote village . Good turn-out: Around 70 relatives attended the ceremony in the eastern Indian state of Jharkhand . 'And marrying a dog is the only way to get rid of the bad luck.' And amazingly, this is not the first time that a local girl has wed a dog in the village. Sri added: 'Many weddings like this have taken place in our village and also the other neighbouring villages. This is a custom that we thoroughly believe in.' According to the village's customs, the marriage will not affect Mangli's life, and she will be free to marry again later without divorcing the dog. The big day: Mangli Munda poses with her father, Sri Amnmunda, and her stray dog husband . 'My villagers say that many girls like me have followed this ritual and they have gotten rid of their evil spells and are living happy lives now,' said Mangli. 'I will also be free to marry a man of my dreams after after the evil spell is over.' At the wedding ceremony, people danced to traditional drumming, while around 70 relatives and local villagers attended the wedding.

We respect the dog as much as we would respect a normal groom,' said Mangli's mother Seems Devi. 'We had to spend money on this wedding in the same way as we would in a normal wedding. But that is the only way we can get rid of her bad luck and ensure the benevolence of the village.' Now with the marriage ceremony over, Mangli has to take care of the dog and raise him as a pet for the next few months. Mangli added: 'I will marry a man one day.

'As we set out to design BlackBerry Passport, we were guided by a simple yet challenging idea - to set aside the limitations of traditional design and to instead simply build a device that fundamentally changes the way business professionals get work done on their smartphone,' said Mr Chen. 'The BlackBerry Passport was created to drive productivity and to break through the sea of rectangular-screen, all-touch devices.' In addition to the large, 1440x1440 pixel square screen, the device has a 3450 mAH battery which BlackBerry claims will last up to 30 hours. It has a quad-core 2.2 GHZ Processor, 3GB RAM as well as a 13MP rear camera, and 32GB memory. The touchscreen is accompanied by a physical keyboard, and the Passport runs BlackBerry 10 OS 10.3.

Earlier this week, Mr Chen told the Wall Street Journal that the price of the flagship device should be in the region of $799, but his firm dropped the price to 'get the market interested.' The BlackBerry Passport (pictured centre) has a full HD 4.5-inch square screen and shows 60 characters of text, compared to 40 on a rectangular 5-inch device (Samsung's Galaxy S5 5.1-inch device is pictured right). Apple's iPhone 4S is pictured left to show scale. There is also a 13MP rear camera and a 2MP front camera .

By comparison, Apple's latest iPhone 6 handset starts at £539 ($649), while the iPhone 6 Plus costs £789 ($749) - both are also available on two-year contracts. Samsung's Galaxy S5 costs around £580 ($650), and the South Korean firm is yet to release price details for its Galaxy Note Edge. The . BlackBerry Passport is the first time the firm has launched a new device, globally, since its BlackBerry 10 devices in 2013. Rob Kerr, mobiles expert at uSwitch.com, said: 'This latest handset launch shows that it’s back to business for BlackBerry - and what a smart move that is. 'After a year away from the UK market, a return to Blighty with a keyboard-based smartphone is a move that plays to BlackBerry's strengths, and shows it has finally understood what people liked about its early phones. 'In a twist, Amazon's Android AppStore comes preloaded, showing either the versatility of the OS - or that the BlackBerry app store needs help.' The Passport combines a large touchscreen with a physical keyboard. BlackBerry chief executive John Chen first revealed the square phone (pictured) during the Canadian company's annual general meeting in June . In June, BlackBerry announced it was offering . 240,000 Android apps to its smartphone users in a surprise deal with . Amazon. The . deal lets BlackBerry add a selection of consumer apps to its . devices, and to focus on developing enterprise and productivity . applications. For example, BlackBerry customers will be able to access popular . Android apps such as Groupon, Netflix, Pinterest, Candy Crush Saga and . Minecraft. The . apps will be available on BlackBerry 10 devices from autumn, when . the company rolls out the BlackBerry 10.3 operating system, the . statement said. While Ben Wood, Chief of Research, CCS Insight added: 'This . is definitely a marmite product – based on our experience so far people . either love the design or are a little perplexed by the size and shape. 'One . thing is certain – it’s a distinctive product that will definitely . stand out from the monotonous stream of similar looking touchscreen . smartphones that currently characterise the market. 'After . 18 months of disruption the strategy that new CEO John Chen has laid . out seems to be taking hold. The business has stabilised and the . Passport device is a critical milestone in efforts to rebuild the . business.' The Passport was first revealed in June by BlackBerry boss John Chen during the company's quarterly earnings report. The project . was previously known as Windermere, and Mr Chen said at the time that . Passport would be officially announced at an event in London in . September. Further details were unveiled by Matt Young on the Inside BlackBerry blog . in July: ‘Consider how IMAX movies begin with the screens set to a more . traditional 16:9 aspect ratio projection for conventional movie . trailers, before expanding to their true dimensions. 'The Passport is like the IMAX of productivity, and you don’t have to sacrifice screen real estate, vertically or horizontally.' Academic research has shown that the optimal number of characters on a line in a book is 66 characters. Most . rectangular smartphones show approximately 40 characters per line, . while the BlackBerry Passport is said to show 60 characters. The Passport (right) was unveiled alongside Blackberry's touchscreen phone the Z3 (left), and the Classic (centre) in a slide, earlier this year. It is unclear how comfortable the phone will be to hold, when making a call for example . This makes the Passport ‘the ideal device for reading e-books, viewing documents and browsing the web.’ It also solves the problem of having to switch between landscape and portrait mode when taking a photo or filming a video. ‘We’ve . been living in a rectangular world for quite some time and know it’s a . great ergonomic design that drives content, media consumption and quick . communications,’ continued Mr Young. ‘However, the rectangle has become a defacto approach to smartphone design, perhaps limiting innovations. ‘Just as a passport is the universal symbol of mobility and was the inspiration for the size and form factor of this device, your BlackBerry Passport becomes your ticket to open new doors of opportunity.’ It is unclear how comfortable the phone will be to hold, when making a call for example, and BlackBerry has not released any details about the price. The blog post did, however, position the device more towards businesses than consumers. For example, it stated architects and mortgage brokers could use it to look at full designs and schematics on the go. While medical staff could view X-rays and medical documents in the office with a patient . Mr Young . concluded: ‘The BlackBerry Passport will take you to new places on the . best business trip you’ve ever had. We want you to imagine the . possibilities.’ [caption] . The . move is the latest by the smartphone pioneer to streamline its focus as . it attempts to reinvent itself under new chief executive John Chen.

United manager Louis van Gaal revealed on Friday that he has nine players missing injured ahead of Saturday's visit of West Ham United in the Barclays Premier League. Van Gaal has described the crisis as the worst he has ever known. Now it has emerged that first team fitness expert Strudwick has been moved from his usual role to a job looking after the physical development of the club’s younger players. It is understood that Van Gaal’s long serving fitness guru Jos van Dijk is now in control of fitness planning and programming for the club’s elite stars. Manchester United fitness coach Tony Strudwick is no longer working with Louis van Gaal's first team stars . Strudwick, pictured with Van Gaal, has been told to sharpen up the fitness of Manchester United's starlets . Jos van Dijk, pictured on the far left before United's win against QPR, will work with the senior team . Van Dijk, pictured to the right of Patrick Kluivert, was part of Van Gaal's Dutch staff at the 2014 World Cup . Strudwick was in charge of things on the club’s pre-season tour of America and was regularly seen working with Wayne Rooney and the rest of the first team on the trip. Since then, though, the 42-year-old has been less visible and sources at Old Trafford confirmed last night that things had changed earlier in the season. Strudwick’s only involvement with the first team now is some warm up drills before training and some strength work. He no longer has any involvement with the crucial task of designing and planning training, the vital role he had fulfilled since joining from Blackburn Rovers in 2007. There is no suggestion that the decision to move Strudwick is any reflection on his work, rather that Van Gaal – in common with many managers – merely wished to work with his own man.

For it will be a miracle if they are still standing, let alone still playing in 18 months time, without some serious rest periods. A look at England’s schedule in that time, particularly the nine-month period from the middle of April next year to the middle of the following January, is confirmation that the cricketing world has gone well and truly mad. There is so much international cricket, including an extraordinary 17 Tests in that nine-month spell, that it will surely finish off England’s big two fast bowlers and seriously shorten the careers of many an elite player to come. VIDEO Scroll down to watch England's Anderson cleared for fourth Test against India . Burn out: Stuart Broad has been struggling with a knee injury during the Test series against India . ‘Greed is good, greed works’, says the Michael Douglas character Gordon Gekko in the 1987 film Wall Street, but he could easily have been talking about the England cricket team nearly 30 years later. This is all about money. I have long believed that there is far too much international cricket, that the bottom line is pursued at the expense of the quality of the product. The concept of less is more, that every international match should mean something, is evidently lost on administrators obsessed with short-termism. Now comes the tipping point. Now comes a year, once the relatively low-key build-up to Christmas is complete, which will jeopardise the longevity of players careers and undermine the quality and intensity of almost every England match. In January England undertake a triangular one-day series in Australia, also featuring India, before they begin the elongated World Cup in February. As soon as that is over, at the end of March, England will be off to the Caribbean for a three Test series before returning, via a one-day international in Ireland, for an Ashes summer which also features a Test and one-day series against New Zealand. Had enough yet? There’s more, much more. As soon as the Ashes, surely the priority of the whole lot, are contested and another one-day and Twenty20 series against Australia is complete England will be off to the United Arab Emirates to face Pakistan in a three-Test series, plus the usual 50-over and Twenty20 matches, before a full tour of South Africa. And on it goes into early 2016 when there is a World Twenty20 tournament in India and beyond. Mind games: Jonathan Trott returned from the Ashes tour after suffering a stress related illness . Who will be left standing? England have been asked to play 17 Test matches over the next nine months . VIDEO England's Anderson cleared for fourth Test against India . No rest for the cricket! England's calender . Now you might point out that players are well paid these days and an inevitable consequence of the wages they demand is that there has to be a full itinerary to pay the bills. But a Test every fortnight for nine months? England playing virtually on every third day throughout the whole of 2015? Crazy. It’s impossible to know how much the demands of a life lived constantly out of a suitcase, with each pressurised match rapidly following another contributed to Jonathan Trott’s illness which forced him home from Australia. But there is no doubt that the ECB are playing a dangerous game with the physical and mental well-being of their top players who, like Anderson and Broad, simply will not be able to continue playing both Test and one-day cricket. Then there are spectators who pay big money to watch England and are entitled to expect to see the best players performing to the maximum of their ability. How often is that going to happen? There are many reasons why there have been more empty seats at England matches this summer than usual but the sheer volume of expensive cricket has to be at the forefront of them. And, what’s more, the power grab of the International Cricket Council by India, England and Australia will inevitably mean that those English spectators who pay top dollar will watch more and more matches against the old enemy Australia and India. Exhausted! Fans could miss the chance of seeing England stars like James Anderson if they are rested . Too much of a good thing? The Ashes will be contested for the third time in just over two years in 2015 . Familiarity will not only breed contempt, as we are seeing between England and India, but also indifference. The Ashes are special because, like football World Cups and rugby’s Lions tours, they should not come around too often. Yet next year will be the third Ashes series in little more than two years. When will the magic disappear? Some time soon, surely. But don’t worry because even when England are not playing Australia and India they will be playing someone else. Too much of a good thing? Unquestionably. And hugely worrying for both players and supporters alike." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "England have been asked to play 17 Tests in the next nine months .\nSchedule will put physical strain on players, especially pace bowlers Stuart Broad and James Anderson .\nThe mental strain can also trouble players as seen with Jonathan Trott .\nEngland must travel to Australia, the World Cup, the Caribbean and a third Ashes in just over two years ." } ]

Out of nothing Sam Allardyce starts talking about my players. ‘I will go to the referee, wish him a good year and tell him he will be ashamed. There is a campaign against Chelsea. ‘In other countries where I worked before, tomorrow in the sports papers it would be front-page scandal because it is a scandal. ‘In this country - and I am happy with that, more than happy with that - we will just say that it was a big mistake with a big influence in the result. ‘I am happy that it is this way, with respect for the referee.

It should be a simple process.’ Mourinho claims opposing managers are deliberately attempting to sabotage his team’s title ambitions by repeatedly accusing Chelsea of being divers. Diego Costa, Gary Cahill, Branislav Ivanovic, Willian and now Fabregas have all been accused of diving this season.

'There is a campaign - not against me, but against Chelsea,’ he whined, after Cesc Fabregas was felled by Southampton’s rookie left back Matt Targett inside the penalty area with the score at 1-1. The brutal truth is Mourinho flipped his lid here, losing control of his emotions at a time when he was unaware Burnley had equalised at Manchester City. If only he had known. To think it had all been going so sweetly, Chelsea serenely closing in on their fourth Barclays Premier League title when they moved nine points ahead of City in November. Mourinho barely mentioned a word of the game, other than to hiss repeatedly when he was quizzed about Taylor’s failure to award Chelsea a 55th-minute penalty. Fabregas was booked for simulation. It was, indeed, a ridiculous decision because Targett took the attacker’s legs from under him and appeared to be blocking his path with an arm at the same time. It should have been a penalty, but then Ronald Koeman could legitimately argue that Chelsea still had another 35 minutes to eke out a winner. In the end, given Ashley Barnes’ equaliser at the Etihad, they got away with it. Chelsea star Diego Costa tries to shoot as three Southampton defenders attempt to block his effort . This was classic Mourinho, setting up a bigger diversion than the cones being laid out on that irksome M3 last night, in a resilient attempt to avoid a heavy-duty inquest into his side’s performance. He can be thankful that City are still three points behind them after they were pegged back by Burnley. Still, this was a big slip. Southampton were excellent, barely showing signs of any fatigue after their purposeful 3-1 victory at Crystal Palace on Boxing Day. Here they scored early on, taking the lead when Dusan Tadic’s delightful lob sent Sadio Mane in the clear. The Southampton forward got his chance because Chelsea’s defensive line was so high and John Terry made a rare error by appealing for offside. After the outstanding season he has had, the Chelsea captain is entitled to make one mistake. Yet, it was a significant one. Mane went on to beat the on-rushing figure of Thibaut Courtois and send this place into raptures. Southampton goalkeeper Fraser Forster attempts save Hazard's low shot but the ball nestles into the bottom corner of the net . Hazard celebrates after scoring past Forster while Southampton stars Victor Wanyama and Morgan Schneiderlin look dejected . Cesc Fabregas goes down in the penalty area after a challenge by Southampton youngster Matt Targett . Saints fans in every area of the ground were hugging each other. And there was a long smouldering cuddle between Tadic and Koeman on the sidelines. What joy for the home fans. Koeman responded to the rhythmic chants from all four corners of St Mary’s as they sang his name after Mane’s opener. He returned a cheery wave. Tadic has seven assists now, a decent haul for a player who always seems to put in a shift down the left flank. This is the first time Chelsea have conceded in the league since Papiss Cisse’s double sealed Newcastle’s win at St James’ Park on December 6. They have had a good run for their money. Southampton cashed in first, taking the lead and prodding Chelsea into action. They had to do something about it. They have the same Christmas schedule as every other team, except they play with the added pressure that every team wants to put one over on them.

The Chelsea midfielder reacts as referee Taylor shows him a yellow card during the match at St Mary's . Fabregas looks dejected as he lays on the turf at St Mary's during his side's 1-1 draw with Southampton . Southampton were hungry, full of willing runners in the centre of midfield. Morgan Schneiderlin, at least until he was correctly dismissed for a second booking for repeatedly chopping Hazard, was the pick of the bunch. The one man Southampton could not afford to take their eye off was Fabregas. Remember the backspin James Rodriguez put on the ball for Cristiano Ronaldo to run on to and score at Anfield in the Champions League a couple of months ago? There were shades of that here, as Fabregas put Hazard in with a wonderful chip. The Belgian took a touch past Maya Yoshida, wrong-footed the rest of the Southampton defence and curled the equaliser beyond Fraser Forster. It was Hazard’s first goal on his travels since January, against Hull, but it was worth the wait. Hazard holds off Southampton defender Maya Yoshida as he attempts to maintain possession for his side . Schneiderlin walks off the pitch after being shown a second yellow card by referee Taylor . Blues substitute Didier Drogba stretches for the ball but he is unable to score past the outstretched Forster . Filipe Luis, Willian and Fabregas speak to referee Taylor at the end of the Premier League encounter . At the break fall-guy Andre Schurrle made way for Willian to shake up Chelsea’s attack. At times he tortured the Saints defence. There were some big misses in the second half, particularly when Didier Drogba, another substitute, miscued his pass as Diego Costa was waiting to score from close-range. Then Costa slipped when Hazard put himself in a goalscoring position. Nothing was working. The only thing that did was Taylor’s whistle, calling Fabregas to attention when he went down under Targett’s clumsy challenge. He was harshly booked, the inevitable conclusion these days when a referee rules in favour of the defender. ‘My team is clean,’ added Mourinho. Yes, but sometimes you play dirty, Jose.

After all, it was about to fly through the Sun’s atmosphere where temperatures reach a staggering 1.1millionC. But this week stargazers were astonished when the 660-foot-wide icy rock disappeared around the back side of the sun, coming within 87,000 miles of its surface, and emerged triumphantly out the other side. This was the comet that lived. What’s more, Nasa’s Solar Dynamics Observatory caught the great escape on camera. SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO . Nasa's Solar Dynamics Observatory captured Comet Lovejoy diving past the sun just 87,000 miles from the surface - and surviving the 'graze' Heat is on: Lovejoy emerges from the clutches of the Sun and was spotted escaping by Nasa's Solar Dynamics Observatory . After the dramatic event it tweeted: ‘Breaking News! Lovejoy lives! The comet Lovejoy has survived its journey around the sun to reemerge on the other side.’ Lovejoy was only discovered on November 27 this year and was named after the amateur Australian astronomer who spotted it, Terry Lovejoy. It is classed as a ‘Kreutz sungrazer’, which is a class of comet whose orbit comes very close to the Sun. They are named after the 19th-century German astronomer Heinrich Kreutz, who figured out that they are actually the remains of one huge comet that broke apart. Soon after Lovejoy was found three separate space agencies excitedly began tracking its trajectory – Nasa, the European Space Agency and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency. Its fate was quickly marked as doomed because it would rush headlong into the Sun’s hellish corona. Age: 4.5billion years . Distance from Earth: 92million miles . Diameter: 865,000 miles (in comparison the Earth is 7926 miles) Temperature at core: 15,000,000C . Composition: Hydrogen (73 per cent), helium (25 per cent) and the rest is carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and iron . Writing on the Sungrazing Comets website, Naval Research Laboratory scientist Karl Battams said: ‘We have here an exceptionally rare opportunity to observe the complete vaporization of a relatively large comet, and we have approximately 18 instruments on five different satellites that are trying to do just that.’ However, Lovejoy had other ideas and in a brief, but very clear, clip can be seen zooming away to safety from the Sun’s fiery clutches. Robert Massey, from the Royal Astronomical Society, was stunned by Lovejoy's close encounter. He told MailOnline: ‘It was an extraordinary event. Lovejoy was incredibly close to the Sun, closer to the Sun than the Earth is to the Moon. ‘And it’s certainly a pretty rare event. The Solar Heliospheric Observatory [Note: the video is from the Solar Dynamics Observatory] has seen many examples of comets being destroyed as they approached the Sun and there was a great deal of interest in this because there was an expectation of spectacular debris. Nasa's Solar Dynamics Observatory captured Comet Lovejoy's 'brush with death' - astronomers predicted the comet would be destroyed, but it survived . ‘I suppose if something is big and tough enough it will survive. This event tells us that the comet was rather more robust than expected. Doubtless it had a very rough ride though!’ Mr Massey explained that comets have probably survived skirmishes with the Sun before, but we just haven’t been able to see them. ‘It just shows how good the technology is now,’ he added." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Comet Lovejoy was expected to vaporize but the 660-foot-wide rock was filmed making a great escape .\n'It was an extraordinary event' said one astronomer .\nThe comet came closer to the Sun than the Earth is to the Moon ." } ]

The 3-0 victory over Liverpool was not without its flaws and they did, of course, need goalkeeper David de Gea at his best. But there was an air of inevitability about their triumph; such expectancy is what has marked United as champions throughout the Premier League era. They were quicker, stronger, more hungry and clinical. There was cunning, too, exemplified by the brilliant Michael Carrick. Van Gaal, it was said, was considering Carrick for the captain’s role before he was injured in the same week as the manager’s unveiling. Armband or not, he is leading their renaissance. Six starts: six wins. His return has facilitated the realisation of this team’s potential, of which there were early-season glimpses. Now, it is there for all to see. Robin van Persie, having baffled all with his failure to produce despite the arrival of his mentor, now has four goals from four games. Without his strikes two seasons back, Sir Alex Ferguson would not have signed off with a league winner’s medal. Likewise this time around - without an on-form and on-target Van Persie, they cannot challenge. At Southampton, where United were admittedly poor, the Dutch striker had two chances and took them both. They won 2-1. That is the difference. Then there is Wayne Rooney. While Van Persie has four in four, the captain has three in that period. Having worn a frown for much of last season, he is playing with a smile, free of the pressure which had appeared to weigh so heavily amid the failings of his team-mates. Robin van Persie has scored four goals in his last four games to find his best form again at last .

But sadly for Lindsay Lohan, things didn't exactly go to plan on her opening night on Wednesday. While not an unmitigated disaster, the 28-year-old actress didn't appear to know her lines off by heart, reading some from a book while being fed others from the side of stage. And to makes matters worse, her one main passionate speech only succeeded in causing the audience to burst into laughter, according to onlookers. A job well done! Lindsay lapped up the roaring applause from the audience at the conclusion of the play despite some unintentional laughter throughout . The three-act play, written by David Mamet, tells the story of two Hollywood hot shots, Bobbie Gould and Charlie Fox (Richard Schiff and Nigel Lindsay), who both attempt to bed their new secretary, Karen (Lohan). While those in the audience agreed Lohan looked beautiful, reaction was decidedly mixed on her performance. Nico Hines from The Daily Beast said: 'Lindsay Lohan only has one major speech in the David Mamet play that marks her West End debut. Unfortunately, she couldn’t remember how it went. 'On the first night of previews, a work-in-progress feel is to be expected. But halfway through the second act of Speed-the-Plow, the audience was openly laughing at Lohan’s struggle to grasp Mamet’s sharp, trademark dialogue.' Bravo! At the end of the evening the Mean Girls star was gifted with a large bouquet of flowers for all her hard work . Life . imitating art... The script lifts the lid on the underbelly of . Hollywood and was penned by Pulitzer Prize-winning screenwriter David . Mamet . Chic: Lindsay looked stylish in a black suit and white shirt combo while her red locks were worn out . He said the audience sat patiently through the first prompt, but noted that her second 'led to titters' in the stalls. He . added: 'Unfortunately for Lohan, the next line delivered by Richard . Schiff (Toby from The West Wing) was: \"You have done a fantastic job!\". The laughter grew louder.' At one point, Mr Hines said a woman in the crowd moaned 'Oh my God, it's so embarrassing' during a set change. She also . caused unintentional hilarity with one particular section of her speech . when the Hollywood bad girl, who has spent time in jail and rehab, said . (in character as Karen), 'I know what it is to be bad, I’ve been bad.' Entertaining plot: Lilo's character Karen is a secretary to a Hollywood executive who tries to manipulate her way to success . For me? Lindsay looked taken aback when an assistant ran up to hand her the beautiful blooms . Jitters: According to some audience members on Twitter, the star forgot a few of her lines . Onlookers . revealed this caused the entire theatre to burst into laughter, . something which Lohan would not have been too pleased with. Others were willing to cut Lohan a bit of slack on her first night. One source told MailOnline: 'She was just fine, she did forget . her lines a couple of times, but covered it up like a pro. She was a . pleasant surprise for sure. 'Lindsay's . character was quite interesting and she immersed herself in the role, . she was very strong in the second scene which was her biggest one.'

'There . is a line where she says \"I know what it is to be bad, I've been bad\" and the audience all cracked up laughing but she got great applause in . the curtain call and someone passed her flowers from audience.' And . Twitter reaction was decidedly mixed: 'User @toflee wrote: 'So Lindsay . Lohan had her lines written down in a book & also got fed a line. Total car crash.' Rehearsals: . The actress has relocated to London for the role. 'Being here in London . is all about me this time,' she told MailOnline . Big shoes to fill: In 1988 Linday's character Karen was also portrayed by chart-topper Madonna . Good luck! The actress took to the stage in a white dress while sipping red wine .

Provide a succinct and relevant summary of the provided text." }, { "from": "human", "value": "In football terms, ITV Sport has been on a bit of a losing streak with their coverage of the game. With the next year or so promising a rather pale mix of highlights shows and live England games, it's certainly not the end of the world. But presumably as a result, it was recently announced that two of their most worthy assistants Matt Smith and Andy Townsend would, in the language of these things, be 'parting company' with the channel at the end of the season. Now it has been announced that the gaffer has also gone. After nearly five years at the helm, we have been told that Adrian Chiles has now left 'with immediate effect'. Mark Pougatch has been quickly drafted in, certainly at least temporarily, to front their changing football coverage. Were ITV thinking that, perhaps, the Puckish Brummie may not go quite so gently into that good night? Adrian Chiles, who has been replaced as ITV's lead football host, pictured in west London on Friday . Broadcaster Mark Pougatch was named as ITV Sport's new lead football presenter on Friday . Chiles appeared in good spirits despite the news, as he walked near his home in west London . Not that you're going to be asking your waiter 'didn't you used to be Adrian Chiles?' any time soon. Since launching his career working in the business news department at the BBC, he has been, and still remains, a broadcasting heavy hitter. Even from those early days in that rather austere corner of telly, he was being seen as the kind of personality who could bring an 'everyman' touch to his work. And, laudably, he was doing so with an accent and appearance that wasn't straight off the Corporation’s production line. So when they decided that their new Sunday night version of Match of the Day would need to have a fresh approach to that of the Saturday night flagship, they no doubt also knew they had just the man in the ranks to bring that approach. Chiles had been there, bought the West Brom season ticket. And so it was that MOTD 2 launched in 2004 with a man at the helm with no parting in his hair and an excitable, scattergun, sometimes frenzied editorial approach that was more like the caller on 606 than it was the cool, controlled anchor. What's more, he also liked to find funny little crowd shots or cock ups and hit us with a one liner over them. Just the kind of thing we do ourselves at home or down the pub. Chiles, pictured as a young boy growing up in Worcestershire in and out of sporting attire, has left ITV . Chiles came to prominence as the presenter of BBC's Match of the Day 2 show that was launched in 2004 . During his time on the BBC, Chiles also presented 'The One Show' which was first aired in 2007 . Chiles (right) formed a successful on-screen relationship with Christine Bleakley during the weekday show . In other words, Chiles was never going to be another Des Lynam. Not least because there will never be another Des Lynam. But also because Chiles was his own man, a natural who also happened to have well-honed presenting skills. What you see is what you get. It was something that quickly then saw him also moving into prime time with the One Show. Then ITV came along. The big-money deal was made in 2010, which meant Adrian was now moving from his quirky late night magazine football show into hours and hours of live broadcasting (including, albeit briefly, a new breakfast show) under the glaring spotlight of our most successful commercial station. And this is where the mood began to change. It was a bit like watching an excellent magician, who wowed you up-close with tricks at the dinner table, trying to become David Copperfield on the Las Vegas stage - but using the same old pack of cards with which to do so. The settings were now Champions League venues, European Championships and World Cups. Big Football. Chiles left BBC for ITV Sport in 2010 and had worked there for almost five years prior to his departure . Chiles presented ITV's Champions League coverage but the channel will not show live games next season . Thankfully, what Chiles didn't try to do was change his personality to fit. That would have made him look like a fake, which I don't see him as. But he didn't adjust his approach. This became particularly clear with his frequent launching of custard pies in the direction of, in particular, Martin O'Neil and Roy Keane. These would often come back with interest. Chiles was determined to maintain the sense that we were all just a bunch of pals watching the footy down the pub together. But it increasingly didn't seem to sit well. Even his determination to keep his little zingers over funny pictures going from the MOTD 2 days began to feel forced, that he was trying too hard, being offbeat for offbeat's sake. And yet there was still something left in the tank for last summer. From their fold-up chairs on the beach, and with their collection of knobbly knees on full display, I thought ITV's coverage of Rio 2014 really hit the right note. And Adrian himself was just one knotted handkerchief on the head away from being that fella who had first left his seat at The Hawthorns 10 years ago to make a bunch of old pros look at football through the fans' eyes. It turns out that this would probably have been the ideal way for Adrian Chiles to close that particular chapter of his broadcasting story.

A high-flying health service administrator killed herself when depressed, anxious and concerned that she was about to turn 30 without marrying or starting a family, an inquest heard. Graduate Rachel Gow, who was also struggling to recover from the death of her mother, wanted to walk up the aisle and have children. She became troubled that her siblings were ‘doing better than her’, the hearing was told. Two months before her 30th birthday, she texted her engineer boyfriend, Anton Tsarev, 30, wishing him ‘all the best for the future’. He found her body on the floor when he returned to the house they shared. Her family and boyfriend told the hearing of their devastation that the ‘kind and generous’ self-confessed ‘dizzy blonde’ hadn’t lived to see her dreams fulfilled. After doing well at school, where she enjoyed dancing and playing the violin, Miss Gow studied at Lancaster University where she graduated with a 2:1 in history, the hearing was told. She most recently secured a job as an administrator at Royal Bolton Hospital. In a statement read to the hearing, her brother Stephen Best and sister Sarah Davidson said: ‘Her greatest wish was to settle down and get married.’ She had been through three break-ups before meeting Mr Tsarev in May 2012, they said, and had been very badly affected by the death of her mother Connie, a primary school teacher, from cancer at the age of 66. The couple moved into a house in Haslingden, Lancashire in 2013, and according to family and friends seemed content. ‘Following the death of her mother, Rachel had a period of independence,’ her siblings’ statement continued. ‘She met Anton and they were both extremely happy. He moved in. They had lots in common. But she could not overcome her previous sadness and felt Anton would leave her. She was looking forward to turning 30, planning trips to Italy with Anton and going to Vegas for her birthday, she was saving money every month. ‘But the relationship became unstable and they tried to make it work.’ Mr Tsarev told the hearing in Burnley: ‘Our relationship had a lot of ups and downs due to her insecurities. She constantly felt I was going to leave her but this was not the case.’ Miss Gow went to see a psychologist last September as she struggled to cope with the approaching milestone as well as the anniversary of her mother’s death. ‘She felt she was not where she should be in life,’ Mr Tsarev said. The inquest was told that she was worried her boyfriend Anton Tsarev, 30, would leave her, and suffered a number of insecurities about the relationship . Miss Gow, who was due to celebrate her 30th birthday in January this year, went to see a psychologist in September 2014 . He added that his girlfriend felt that she should be married with children by now and that her siblings were doing better than her. ‘This was something she struggled with,’ he said. She had also talked about suicide techniques but he had regarded the comments as being ‘in the heat of the moment,’ he added. The day before Rachel was found last November 1, the couple went to her father's house to look after his dog while he was away. But in the morning, the couple had an argument over a text message Miss Gow had found on Mr Tsarev's phone from someone else. He said: 'In the morning we both got up. I had my phone on charge in the bed room. She looked at it. She came into the living room very upset telling me to leave. She had found texts on my phone from someone. They were not out of the ordinary. She didn't see it that way.' Mr Tsarev told the inquest that his girlfriend felt that she should be married with children and that her siblings were doing better than her . Later that the day couple drove home to their house in Haslingden and Anton went out to visit a friend in Preston. He said: 'She was still upset when we arrived home. She was very agitated. This was not a new thing.' He told the court he had left the house after picking some clothes and went to stay somewhere else for a while. Miss Gow was an 'outgoing, adventurous and loving' young woman . He added: 'I got a text from her wishing me the best for the future. It was common place after an argument so I didn't think anything of it.' However Mr Tsarev 'had a really bad feeling' so he decided to go back to Haslingden to see if everything was alright. He said: ' I went into the lounge. The lights were off but the fire was on. I could see her body lying on the floor.' The inquest was told that Anton performed CPR on Miss Gow until emergency services arrived just before 9pm, but Miss Gow was pronounced dead. Tests showed Miss Gow had died from hypoxia. Recording a verdict of suicide, Coroner Richard Taylor said: 'We have a girl who is severely troubled by a number of aspects of her life. 'As I understand it she was having a slightly more positive year because of new employment. But she clearly had difficulties and at some stage she purchased the items with which she took her own life. 'It appears from her actions she did that with intent to end her life.' In a statement Mr Tsarev said: 'Everyone is devastated by Rachel's death. It's a tragic loss for everyone, I'm absolutely heartbroken. 'Being around her was so easy, we enjoyed all the same things and we loved going walking together in the Lake District. Rachel did a lot of travelling all over the world and she was very adventurous and loved life. 'She was a fantastic person who inspired everyone around her. She was still grieving for her mum - they were very close. She really did miss her mum, she always spoke very highly of her.' Miss Gow's brother Stephen Best added: 'Through all of our grief and sadness, it is essential that we remind ourselves of why we all loved her. Rachel was effervescent, full of fun and laughter, and could tell a brilliant joke. Sister Sarah Davidson said: 'She was very popular and made friends easily. She was a kind and generous person who made other people feel at ease. She was a treasured sister and was wonderful with children.'" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rachel Gow, 29, struggled to overcome the death of her mother, Connie .\nFamily and friends thought she was improving when she met her boyfriend .\nBut the inquest was told that she became worried he would leave her .\nFamily said her greatest wish was to 'settle down and have a family'\nFor confidential support call the Samaritans in the UK on 08457 90 90 90, visit a local Samaritans branch or click here for details ." } ]

Overexposed: Halle Berry, who has one of the most sensational figures in Tinseltown, failed to impress on the Golden Globes red carpet in a cutaway printed Versace gown . The design, by Versace, appeared to . have been carelessly sliced apart at the midriff and thigh, and the . bodice seemed far too tight, even on a waist as slim as Halle's. The split in the dated pink printed . skirt did at least allow the star to do her best impression of . 'Angelina's leg', and the nude court shoes were, at least, an elegant, . understated choice. Lucy Liu's Carolina Herrera gown also stood out for all the wrong reasons. While the smiling star no doubt felt . like a princess in the full-skirted Carolina Herrera gown - and we . applaud her risk-taking - the print seemed to be more appropriate for . wallpaper or a tablecloth than an evening gown. Sienna Miller - usually a regular on the best-dressed list - fell short for us this evening too. The wallpaper look: Lucy Liu's Carolina Herrera gown stood out for all the wrong reasons . Arm candy: The only saving grace of Jennifer Westfeldt's confusing look was that she arrived on the arm of Jon Hamm (left). Eva Longoria's Emilio Pucci gown had too-deep splits at the chest and thigh (right) She said she wanted to support . British fashion, so selected a gown by Erdem. And while the look is sure . to impress fashion insiders, it didn't do many favors for her figure. The top part sat awkwardly on her . bust, and was positioned slightly off-center above the column skirt. On . the plus side, the simple hair and make-up was a wise choice with a busy . print - the soft pink lip, in particular, looked fresh and pretty. Unfortunately little could save Emily . Mortimer's look. The silver sequin gown was just that little bit too . tight and clung in all the wrong places. Missing the mark: Nene Leakes looked ready for . work in her bizarre shirt-dress (left) while Julia Louis-Dreyfus was . channeling 1991 in her dated gown (right) Perhaps it would have worked if the . neckline were not as high and the cut not quite as austere, but on this . occasion there was nothing to save it. Perhaps Emily's serious . expression indicates that she knows this all too well. It was an issue shared by Rosario Dawson, though, whose powder-blue peplum added unnecessary bulk to her otherwise slim frame. Nene Leakes - who has successfully . elevated her profile from Real Housewife to serious actress with roles . in Glee and The New Normal - made an unlikely choice in a shirt-style . dress. The full skirt . could not save it from looking too office-like to be a real success . though, and for such a flamboyant personality, the expectations for a . fun choice were higher. Unflattering: Rosario Dawson (left) and Emily Mortimer (right) wore dresses that failed to do their slim figures favors. Sienna Miller's gown is sure to please fashionistas, but looks awkward to the average eye (center) At the other end of the scale, though, was actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus, whose corseted gown with layers of brown chiffon and black lace looked like a design from circa 1991 - and not in a good way. Nicole Richie was another starlet . who missed the mark on the red carpet in a floor length gown that looked . slightly as if it had been made out of pale blue curtains. An over fussy pattern, combined with a high neck and long sleeve swamped the petite stars tiny frame. Over-the-top: Nicole's intricately patterned dress and thick blue eyeshadow did the petite star no favours . The reality-star-turned-designer also was sporting some less than flattering make- up; seemingly having gone a little overboard with the fake tan. The slightly orange hue and heavy blue eye makeup served to make the 31-year-old look far older than her years. Zosia Mamet was another star who seriously misjudged her makeup. Perhaps taking her role as the virginal prude in Girls a little too far, she ruined a stunning fitted black gown by completely abstaining from any makeup or accessories. With her hair pull back too tightly and looking a little greasy she looked decidedly drab and dull next to her glamorous red carpet companions. Both Jessica Alba (right) and Zosia Mamet (left) wore elegant classic cut dresses, but both managed to spoil their look; Alba with her creature-like bag, and Zosia with a decided lack of make-up and jewelry . Jessica Alba similarly managed to detract from a stunning dress with some poor accessory choices. While her bold salmon coloured dress wowed crowds and set of her skin tone perfectly, the look was let down by her furry clutch bag. Closely resembling a muppet, the furry monstrosity looked like it may jump to life at any minute, and rather detracted from the otherwise polished look. Breaking Bad’s Anna Gunn suffered a serious bad hair day. While her dress was a bit of a frock horror it was her dodgy 80s hair that needed work. Her ‘do’ suggested she was dragged through a bush on the way over to the awards or simply misplaced her hair brush. A safer bet would have been some sleek finger waves or a more polished do like Amy Adams or Hedi Klum. From top to toe: Kerry Washington (right) seems to have forgotten the end of her dress, while Anna Gunn's (left) hair looks like she had an altercation with a rather angry rose bush on her way to the awards . Kerry Washington is usually a staple of ‘best dressed’ lists, but last night she seemed to have left the bottom of her dress at home. Her sheer nude dress ticked all the right boxes from the knees upwards, but there was some seriously unflattering ankle flapping happening from the usually stylish beauty. That being said, there weren't too . many fashion faux pas at the Golden Globes this year. Perhaps years of attacks from fashion police has taught the A-list that it is wiser to play it safe in flattering black and ethereal beiges . and nudes.

Robert Jason Owens, 37, (left) who has been charged with the murder of a pregnant Food Network star and her husband, was the main person of interest in the disappearance of student Zebb Quinn (right) in 2000 . The bodies of pregnant celebrity chef Cristie Schoen Codd (left), 38, a season 8 finalist on Food Network Star, and her husband Joseph Codd (right), 45, were found dead at their home this week . Police said on Friday that Owens admitted he had stored and destroyed the bodies of the couple at his home, The Citizen-Times reported. Investigators also said they found human remains inside a wood stove in Owens' home. Owens admitted that he had hit the husband, who worked as a grip on Hollywood movies, with his truck. There were no details on how Mrs Codd was killed. Police said earlier this week that Owens was also being looked at in the disappearance of 18-year-old college student Zebb Quinn in 2000. The student vanished 15 years ago after going to look at a car for sale in Asheville with Owens, then 21. Quinn, who has not been seen since January 2, 2000, was captured on surveillance video buying sodas with Owens at a convenience store after he got off work at Walmart at 9pm. The pair then drove away separately. But they were apparently heading to the same destination to look at a Mitsubishi Eclipse for sale that Quinn was interested in buying, police told Fox Carolina. Asheville Police Sgt. Dave Romick told ABC: 'Owens was a friend of Zebb Quinn. He was a person of interest almost immediately. Over the course of 15 years, he has become the primary person of interest.' Owens was never charged in the disappearance. Police found the remains of the Codds in Buncombe County after the couple were reported missing on Sunday. Buncombe County Sheriff Van Duncan said at a news conference Friday that deputies think the Codds were dead for three days before officers were called to their home. Search warrants say Owens threw away a trash bag with one victim's belongings on Sunday. Duncan wouldn't talk about a motive for the killing. Warrants show deputies took 11 knives and a saw blade from Owens' home. Owens, who the couple had hired to work on their home, was charged with two counts of first-degree murder, the murder of an unborn child, larceny and breaking and entering on Tuesday. Following Zebb Quinn's disappearance, Owens told police that while they were on their way to see the car, his friend pulled over and said he had to go, after being left in a 'frantic state' from a message he had received. The 18-year-old student hasn't been seen since. On January 3, 2000, Quinn's mother, Denise Vlahakis, filed a missing person's report. Two weeks later, the Quinn's car, a 1990 Mazda Protégé, was found in the parking lot of a nearby restaurant. Bizarrely, a live puppy was inside the vehicle, which was parked at The Little Pigs Barbecue near a hospital where Ms Vlahakis worked. A pair of lips were also drawn on the car's back windshield. The puppy was later adopted by a police officer. Ms Vlahakis later said of her son: 'We all feel very certain that he was killed that night', explaining how he had no extra clothes, money or contact lenses solution with him on the night he vanished. She added: 'It is hard because we don't know and it's hard because we can't say goodbye and kind of put everything at rest.'
