Bull-necked Mariusz Krezolek used his experience of a year in the Polish Army to devise punishment exercises he knew would hasten Daniel Pelka's emaciation. The powerfully-built plasterer, who worked in an automotive plant while living in Coventry, forced his starving stepson to use precious calories performing squats and other energy-sapping drills. Also a trained brick-layer, Krezolek once told a work colleague that Daniel was 'retarded' and should be sent back to his biological father in Poland. Krezolek, who boasted at work about having served jail sentences for driving offences, told the colleague in the summer of 2011: 'It's not even worth beating him because he won't feel pain as he's autistic.' In other disturbing comments, Krezolek also informed the same work-mate that Daniel was 'all f***** up' and 'a very bad person'. Born in the small town of Trzebnica in south-western Poland in June 1979, Krezolek showed not a shred of remorse during 17 hours and six minutes in the witness box. The former soldier was accused of faking tears and even grinned in the absence of the jury as he sought to minimise his role during five days of testimony. In his at times heart-breakingly callous account, Daniel's stepfather admitted he would not have subjected a child of his own to the punishments and cruelties Daniel was forced to endure. On his fourth day in the witness box, . Krezolek appeared to take pleasure from confirming he and Luczak had sex . on the eve of their arrest, two nights after Daniel died. The . following exchange then took place between Krezolek - who said Daniel . had been 'pushed to the back burner' - and prosecutor Jonas Hankin QC. Krezolek angered several jurors when he feigned distress while looking at black and white CT scans of Daniel's body . Mr Hankin: 'I am interested to know how you were able to treat a little boy in the way that you did, was it because he was not your own flesh and blood?' Krezolek: 'It happened because I simply wanted to satisfy Magda.' Mr Hankin: 'You had no respect for Daniel as a human being did you? Krezolek: 'I did.' Mr Hankin: 'When was the last time you cuddled him?' Krezolek once told a work colleague that Daniel was 'retarded' and should be sent back to his biological father in Poland . Krezolek: 'I cannot remember. He simply didn't come for cuddling.' Mr Hankin: 'You have told the jury that little boy lived in the shadow of alcoholism and violence. Who in the quiet periods needed care more than Daniel?' Krezolek: 'Of course it was needed for Daniel more than anyone else but it was the arguments that made a man simply think about something else.' Mr Hankin: 'When was the last time in life you tucked him into bed?' Krezolek: 'I cannot remember.' Mr Hankin: 'Read him a bed-time story?' Krezolek: 'I cannot remember.' Mr Hankin: 'When did you bathe him?' Krezolek: 'I cannot remember.' Mr Hankin: 'When was the last time in life you played with him?' Krezolek: 'I cannot remember.' Mr Hankin: 'This is a little boy who had been in your life for two years and you can't remember when you last tucked him in, read him a story or bathed him, or even played with him. You didn't have his best interests at heart did you?' Krezolek: 'I think you're right. Not because I didn't want to but because my head was occupied with something else.' Several jurors shook their heads in apparent disbelief as Krezolek again appeared to feign distress as he was shown haunting black-and-white CT scan images of Daniel's body. Mr Hankin asked Krezolek how he could look at the deeply distressing scans without remorse. After Krezolek claimed he was 'truly sorry' for what had happened to his stepson, Mr Hankin told him: 'You cry for yourself Mr Krezolek and not Daniel.'" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Krezolek angered several jurors when he feigned distress during trial .\nAdmitted he would not have subjected his own children to the same abuse .\nTold colleague Daniel was 'retarded' and should go back to Poland ." } ]

Provide a succinct and relevant summary of the provided text." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney said Wednesday that he was 'stunned' to hear President Barack Obama during his speech to the United Nations making an 'outrageous' comparison between a white-on-black police shooting in Missouri and a mass genocide by the ISIS terror army in Syria and Iraq. 'I was stunned,' Cheney said during a Fox News Channel interview. 'I mean, in one case you've got a police officer involved in a shooting. There may be questions about it. They'll be sorted out through the legal process.' 'There's no comparison to that with what ISIS is doing to thousands of people throughout the Middle East,' he said, 'with bloody beheadings of anybody they come in contact with.' Cheney said it's 'outrageous' to compare Ferguson with Syria 'as though somehow there's moral equivalence there' 'We have our own racial and ethnic tensions': Obama brought the August shooting in Ferguson, MIssouri into his speech condemning ISIS terrorists for a genocidal march across parts of Syria and Iraq . Michael Brown's police-shooting death followed his participation in a convenience-story robbery, but civil rights protesters descended on the town of Ferguson, Missouri to demand the cop's prosecution . Obama had said hours earlier at a UN General Assembly meeting in New York that the August 9 shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri was evidence that the United States has 'our own racial and ethnic tensions.' Brown, 18, committed a strong-arm robbery at a convenience store before a physical altercation with a police officer, which turned deadly minutes later . Critics quickly jumped on Obama's comment, saying the president was drawing lines of similarity between the teen's death and the ethnic cleansing plaguing the Middle East. Richard Grenell, formerly the spokesman for America's UN mission, wrote Wednesday in an online essay that 'overstating America's issues doesn't make us relatable; it makes others' issues easily dismissable.' Obama had offered what some interpreted as an apology on the world stage for a local law-enforcement crisis that left a single man dead. 'I realize that America's critics will be quick to point out that at times we too have failed to live up to our ideals, that America has plenty of problems within our own borders,' he told world leaders, referring to the shooting. 'In a summer marked by instability in the Middle East and Eastern Europe, I know the world also took notice of the small American city of Ferguson, Missouri – where a young man was killed, and a community was divided. So yes, we have our own racial and ethnic tensions.' Former Vice President Dick Cheney said Wednesday night that he was 'stunned' to hear President Obama bring the Ferguson, Missouri police shooting into a speech about ISIS terrorism and genocide . Fair comparison? The murderous Islamist terror group ISIS has mass-slaughtered fellow Muslims for the crime of belonging to the wrong religious sect . The case brought American race-rioters to Missouri from as far away as California and Maine. Ferguson was the scene of looting and nightly riots. Cheney appeared on the 'Hannity' program. Later in his interview, he said Obama would eventually have to heed calls for American ground troops to intervene in Iraq and Syria, where the self-described Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS) has killed hundreds of thousands and displaced millions in its quest for a 'caliphate' state ruled by religious extremists. The president, Cheney said, repeatedly refuses to 'accept good military advice in terms of how he actually uses the force.' In part because of that, the former VP said, the next decade will see another bloody terror attack on American soil. 'It's not just ISIS. ISIS front and center right now,' he said. 'But I believe there'll be another mass casualty attack against the United States.'" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Former VP said he was 'stunned' to hear the president invoke a police shooting as evidence that the US has ethnic tensions .\nObama's move was widely slammed by critics who believe he was equating a single slain teen with victims of a mass-genocide .\n'There's no comparison,' Cheney said on the Fox News Channel .\nObama had told the UN that 'America has plenty of problems within our own borders' and 'our own racial and ethnic tensions'\nNo charges have been brought against the white police who killed Michael Brown, a black 18-year-old who had just robbed a store but was unarmed ." } ]

Guus Hiddink, who started his second spell as Holland manager just 70 days ago on September 4, could be out of a job come Sunday night as a consequence of his own words. He has, in effect, filled out his own P45 form and is awaiting the rubber-stamp from his employer. Hiddink said of the upcoming Euro 2016 qualifier with Latvia in Amsterdam: 'If we lose, it makes sense that I leave.' Guus Hiddink, pictured here during Wednesday's defeat to Mexico, has said he will resign if Holland lose to Latvia in their Euro 2016 qualifier on Sunday night . Striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar rues another missed chance in Holland's 3-2 loss to Mexico in Amsterdam . (Left to right) Stefan de Vrij, Daley Blind, Leroy Fer and Ricardo van Rhijn leave the pitch after the defeat . (Left to right) Wesley Sneijder, Ibrahim Affelay and Daley Blind react after a fourth loss in five games . And after Wednesday night's 3-2 friendly loss to Mexico heaped even more pressure on his shoulders, Hiddink, sounding as gloomy as a man writing his own obituary, confirmed: 'Yes, I will still leave if we lose to Latvia.' Even by the standards of their recent slump - a post-World Cup hangover that has seen four defeats in five matches - Holland should beat a team ranked 99th in the world. Following Michel Platini's tinkering, expanding the tournament from 16 to 24 games and ushering through up to three teams from each qualifying group, Holland will not fail to reach the finals. But after Wednesday night, Hiddink is not as certain as he was when he made that ultimatum on himself last weekend. The odds were stacked against the former Chelsea caretaker boss from the outset. Holland were excellent at the World Cup, finishing third, and Louis van Gaal returned from Brazil and headed off to Manchester United a national hero. The way he had his team playing vibrant, attacking football was a tough act to follow and so it has proved. There had been criticism of his return in some quarters, with plenty saying Ronald Koeman should have come in. Louis van Gaal is greeted by the TV cameras and fans after Holland returned home from the World Cup . Van Gaal congratulates Robin van Persie after Holland's 5-1 rout of Spain at the World Cup . Holland's coaching team of (from left) Danny Blind, Guus Hiddink and Ruud van Nistelrooy have struggled . September 4 (Friendly) Italy 2 Holland 0 . September 9 (Euro 2016 qualifier) Czech Republic 2 Holland 1 . October 10 (Euro 2016 qualifier) Holland 3 Kazakhstan 1 . October 13 (Euro 2016 qualifier) Iceland 2 Holland 0 . November 12 (Friendly) Holland 2 Mexico 3 . And the results have been underwhelming to say the least. In Hiddink's first game, a friendly with Italy in Bari at the start of September, they found themselves two-down inside the first 10 minutes. In their opening Euro qualifier, against the Czech Republic, they were beaten by a stoppage time goal by Vaclav Pilar. In last month's double-header, they had to come from behind to beat lowly Kazakhstan and then slumped to a 2-0 defeat in Iceland, leaving them third in the standings. And their glaring weaknesses were exposed in an exciting game with Mexico at the Amsterdam ArenA. After Wesley Sneijder had rewarded a high-tempo start to the second-half by bringing Holland level at 1-1, they were unlocked at the back by a sweeping Jesus Corona ball, which left Carlos Vela to score his second of the night. And Mexico's third was the worst. Joel Veltman was woefully out of step with the rest of the back line, playing Javier Hernandez onside as he received Andres Guardado's through ball, rounded Tim Krul and finished. Javier Hernandez (right) sprints off in celebration after rounding goalkeeper Tim Krul to score Mexico's third . Arjen Robben was highly critical of the Dutch defence after the match, saying there is no 'security or stability' Huntelaar and Holland made front page news in Metro on Thursday morning . On both occasions, Hiddink sat in shock on the bench, apparently unaware of how to fix things. Arjen Robben, at least, didn't hold back in his criticism of the back line afterwards. 'We should not point the finger at each other,' he told SBS6 . 'But we have to speak to each other about the errors that were made. We have no security or stability at the back and we fall into repetition.' Hiddink wasn't helped when centre-back Ron Vlaar was forced off injured in the first-half, replaced by Stefan de Vrij, and the manager admitted they were threadbare at the back. 'It is true we are a bit thin on good defenders, especially after the new injury to Vlaar,' Hiddink said. 'I do not have many alternatives.' Under Van Gaal, any defensive frailties were usually masked by exciting forward play but now they look profligate.

Wesley Sneijder blasts home Holland's equaliser early in the second-half but they were soon behind again . Daley Blind (centre) celebrates with Joel Veltman (left) and Wesley Sneijder after his goal . Both goals, from Sneijder and Daley Blind were spectacular, but Klaas-Jan Huntelaar was wasteful. At one point he missed an open goal from two yards out. Robin van Persie, not quite fully fit and left out of the Mexico game with Sunday in mind, cannot return soon enough but he has been far from his best for Manchester United this season. Memphis Depay, in excellent form for PSV Eindhoven, failed to sparkle for Holland and was removed for Quincy Promes on the hour. The crowd only became animated when Robben received the ball and many had already voted with their feet, with sections of the ground empty. This Holland fan was still getting behind his team - but many jeered as they slipped to defeat . There were audible jeers when the teams walked off at half-time and after the Mexico goals. The Oranje optimism of the World Cup has long since evaporated. But Hiddink has been here before. When first appointed Holland manager in 1995, he started with four losses from five, including competitive defeats to the Czech Republic and Belarus. They still made the finals, albeit via the play-offs. In that first spell, Hiddink remained until 1998, leading Holland to the semi-finals of the World Cup in France. This time round it may be a considerably shorter stay and under-fire Hiddink has already outlined his own exit strategy." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Guus Hiddink is on the brink following a fourth defeat in five games .\nThe Holland manager said he would resign if they lose to Latvia .\nSunday's Euro 2016 qualifier in Amsterdam has taken on vital importance .\nHolland lost 3-2 to Mexico in a friendly on Wednesday night .\nHiddink, the former Chelsea manager, has only been in job 70 days ." } ]

New research by skincare brand Dove has found that some women find it so difficult to talk about their bodies in a positive way that they would rather fall over in the middle of a public place than tell people a part of their body they think is beautiful. In their latest campaign for real beauty the brand has partnered with award-winning photographer Laura Pannack to capture real women celebrating a part of themselves that their friends have helped them identify as beautiful. Scroll down for video . Dove's new Beauty Spot campaign asked real women to identify their own most beautiful parts- and found very few women see themselves as attractive . The women were asked to cover themselves with a white sheet- only exposing those parts of themselves they felt were beautiful . The imagery features five real women covering most of their bodies with a sheet, revealing only their own 'beauty spots', while the TV campaign features the real women in the photography being asked to name something beautiful about their friends and themselves. Dove is aiming to capitalise on the ability of women to help their friends see their own personal beauty in its Beauty Spot campaign which launches today. When asked what part of themselves they would call beautiful, the range of answers shows just how unpredictable women can be with responses including calves, toes, shoulders, wrists and even ribcages! Sadly 7 per cent of women said they couldn’t name a single thing. Over half of women make sure they tell their friends what's beautiful about them on a regular basis . Yet while only 1 per cent of British women would call themselves beautiful, they find it easy to see beauty in their friends.

Provide a succinct and relevant summary of the provided text." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Mr Justice Holman (pictured) said that in almost 20 years as a judge of the Family Division he had rarely heard a more harrowing case . A mixed-race toddler must be taken from a ‘perfect’ white couple who wanted to adopt him and given to a black aunt he has never met, a judge ruled yesterday. The 20-month-old boy has been lovingly cared for by his adoptive parents for the past 13 months and will suffer distress and perhaps psychological harm when he is removed from them. But Mr Justice Holman said these factors were outweighed by the child’s chance to be brought up by his father’s family, who can teach him about his African heritage. The experienced family court judge said it was one of the most harrowing cases he had heard and expressed regret at the ‘intense grief’ his ruling would cause. The adoptive parents’ heartbreak could have been avoided if the father of the boy had come forward earlier. But the man, a 32-year-old black African who claimed asylum in England in 2001, initially showed no real interest in the baby, referred to only as ‘C’, and even denied it was his. The child’s mother, who is white and in her early twenties, has struggled with alcohol and drug problems. While still a teenager she had two children by different fathers. They are now aged three and five, and have both been adopted. Her third child, C, was taken from her five days after his birth in March last year and placed with foster carers by Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council in South Yorkshire. At seven months old he was placed for adoption with the white couple, named as ‘A’ and ‘B’. Social worker Elizabeth Lancaster assessed the couple as being ‘remarkable people’, ‘perfect’ parents for the little boy and almost ‘the ideal adopters’. The judge paid tribute to how they attended courses to prepare themselves for taking on the child, and read books to him about his father’s home country in Africa. The child is now ‘very well attached’ to the couple and feels secure with them, the judge said. One of the adoptive parents told the court: ‘He is such a happy, settled, loving little person who knows who we are ... I love him so much. He will always be my son.’ The judge of the Family Division ruled at the High Court (pictured) that the 20-month-old boy should live with his aunt in the Home Counties . This is not the first time Rotherham’s social services have caused controversy. This summer they were criticised in a report that found at least 1,400 children suffered sexual exploitation in the borough over a 16-year period. And in 2012 there was a row after the council removed three siblings of ethnic minority descent from experienced foster parents because they were members of Ukip. The married couple, who had been fostering for nearly seven years, said they were made to feel like criminals when a social worker told them their views on immigration made them unsuitable carers. Rotherham council’s former director of children’s services Joyce Thacker said at the time that the quality of the couple’s care was ‘not an issue’. She added: ‘These children are from EU migrant backgrounds and Ukip has made very clear statements on ending multiculturalism. I have to think about how sensitive I am being to those children.’ But while frontline social workers supported adoption by A and B, Rotherham’s interim director of children’s services and C’s court-appointed guardian backed the aunt. C’s biological mother had initially claimed that the child’s father was her white long-term partner, who has a criminal record and a history of drug problems. Social workers noticed that the boy appeared to be of mixed race but accepted the mother’s word. But this March, after A and B had started formal adoption proceedings, the aunt contacted social services to say her brother was in fact the father. A genetic test confirmed this was the case, and social workers assessed that the 29-year-old aunt, a single mother who lives in the Home Counties, was a suitable carer for the child. Mr Justice Holman ruled that C should be placed with the aunt after a five-day family court hearing. He said: ‘I know, and deeply regret, that my decision will cause intense grief. After hearing all the evidence and argument, and after due consideration, I am, however, clear as to the outcome, which I do not reach narrowly or marginally. ‘I have no doubt that public reaction to this judgment and decision is likely to be polarised, with some agreeing and some strongly disagreeing with what I have decided.’ Under the Adoption and Children Act 2002, the most important concern of family courts is a child’s welfare ‘throughout his life’. Judges must take into account the likely effect of the child’s being adopted and ceasing to be a member of their original family. They must not make an adoption order unless they consider that doing so would be better than not doing so. Once a child has been formally adopted, the order can be revoked only in ‘highly exceptional and very particular circumstances’." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Justice Holman said toddler will live with family of father who rejected him .\nRuled that the toddler should be moved from the 'perfect' adoptive couple .\nToddler went to live with adoptive parents when he was seven months old .\nFive months later, genetic father said he wanted him to live with his sister .\nJudge said it was 'finely balanced case' but rejected adoption application ." } ]

The so-called ‘Class of 92’ of former United players have taken over the Evo-Stick League Division One North side and all five turned out as well as bringing their old team-mates from their schoolboy days to play a friendly, with Robbie Savage playing centre forward, to the amusement of the capacity crowd, who booed his name when the teams were read out. Rio Ferdinand travelled up from London to be assistant manager but it was the original youth team coach who honed the illustrious talents at United, who was managed the ‘Class of 92 and friends’ for the night.

Eccles was gridlocked as crowds attempted to reach the AJ Bell Stadium, causing kick off to be delayed 25 minutes, indicating the success of the evening that was held to raise funds for the club. Former United players Raimond van der Gouw, Mikael Silvestre, John O’Kane, Quinton Fortune, Ben Thornley and David May all played, the latter two as subs, while former England cricketer captain Michael Vaughan came on for the second half with fast bowler Steve Harmison on the bench.

But though the United assistant manager Giggs got on the score-sheet with a penalty and Scholes was his elegant self in central midfield with Butt seemingly full of energy it was the semi-pros who had the upper hand, embarrassing their owners by beating them 5-1. Salford’s Sam Madeley did his career prospects at the club no favours by turning Gary Neville one way, then then the other before landing him on his backside.

The midfielder on Thursday travelled up to Wearside to discuss personal terms with the Black Cats and completed his move on Friday morning. Brighton had rejected a transfer request from the 24-year-old earlier this month but were unable to prevent him from signing for Poyet's side. Proud: Liam Bridcutt stands in his Sunderland shirt after completing his move from Brighton . Done deal: Bridcutt finally made the move away from the Amex to the Stadium of Light . On the lookout: Gus Poyet has brought in new faces for the Premier League survival scrap . Bridcutt had been at at the Amex Stadium since 2010, when he joined the club on a free transfer from Chelsea. Meanwhile, Albion boss Oscar Garcia has drafted in Spanish forward David Rodriguez from Celta Vigo. Brighton have also been watching midfielder Dale Stephens as a potential replacement for Bridcutt but Charlton have rebuffed an offer. Following suit: Ignacio Scocco gives a thumbs-up after sealing his £3million move to the North East . Wanted man: Charlton have rejected an offer from Brighton for 24-year-old midfielder Dale Stephens . Starting at Chelsea, Bridcutt had loan spells with Yeovil, Watford and Stockport County before being allowed to leave on a free transfer to Brighton in 2010. Impressing at the Amex in the engine room of midfield, the Scot was called up to the national side for the first time for the 2-0 World Cup qualifying defeat by Serbia in March last year. Bridcutt made 132 appearances for Brighton, scoring twice and was part of their 2010-11 League One promotion-winning side. Bridcutt, who will wear the No 23 shirt, had not played for the south-coast club since submitting a transfer request earlier this month after the Black Cats formalised their interest in him. The midfielder, who made his Scotland debut against Serbia last year, joins fellow January signings Marcos Alonso, Santiago Vergini, Oscar Ustari and Ignacio Scocco at the Stadium of Light. Poyet needs to clear the decks and bring some money in too to keep owner Ellis Short happy, and Lee Cattermole could be leaving for Stoke City. Despite Mark Hughes’ surprise that the proposed deal has caused Poyet so much consternation – ‘I don’t know where that came from,’ he said on Wednesday – there is interest in the former Sunderland captain according to first team coach Charlie Oatway. On the way out? Stoke City are interested in signing Sunderland's former captain Lee Cattermole . Speaking at the weekend, Cattermole . said: ‘I will definitely be a Sunderland player on Wednesday.

Watching on a plasma screen could result in lifetime emissions a third higher than a similar sized LED television. Whereas a laptop could result in less than half the emissions compared to watching on a desktop computer. Whereas going to see a game live at the stadium produces the most carbon of the lot, particularly for an away game, due to the added impact of transport. The reports claim watching a match on LED screens is most energy efficient, followed by LCD and then plasma. It is estimated that this Sunday’s FA Community Shield at Wembley between Manchester United and Wigan will produce 5,160 tonnes of carbon dioxide. This is the equivalent of the annual energy emissions of around 1,000 homes. The research found that when watching alone, the lowest carbon way to view football is by using a smartphone or tablet connected to broadband. Emissions can be as much as eight times lower than watching on television, mostly due to the smaller size of the screen. In Britain, 27 per cent of smartphone owners and 63 per cent of tablet owners are now using their device to watch live TV. For the upcoming season both Sky and BT are offering apps that allow football to be watched on personal devices and each device and screen sizes can vary in energy consumption. However, watching on a plasma screen could result in lifetime emissions a third higher than a similar sized LED television. A laptop could result in less than half the emissions compared to watching on a desktop computer. During the 2010-11 season The FA reduced its own carbon footprint by more than seven per cent, compared to 2008-09 and the organisation achieved the Carbon Trust Standard.

Roger Maslin, managing director of Wembley Stadium, said: 'We are continuing to find new ways to reduce our environmental impacts. 'Only a small part of the total carbon emissions associated with a game at Wembley are in our direct control, so we are calling on fans to do their bit and help to shrink the carbon bootprint of watching football.'

In most cases we leave the leftovers to the side of our plate and throw the food away without a second thought. But a new app could be about to put an end to that. LeftoverSwap is being developed to help cut down on waste by offering those 'tasty', unwanted morsels to those who might appreciate what you are happy to bin. Will leftovers save the planet? The new app, LeftoverSwap, hopes to cut down on global waste and ensure people don't go without food . The basic premise of the app is that you can advertise your unwanted food by photographing and uploading images of it. Hungry app owners in the local vicinity can then get in touch, order their ‘takeaway’ and eat the otherwise redundant food – saving them money and, the developers hope, the planet. The creators also believe the concept will help reconnect communities as they get in touch and share meals. The website says that the app is for people ‘who hate the idea of throwing out food, but also don't want to be eating the same leftovers for the next few days.’ LeftoverSwap (mockup of app pictured) could help you get rid of that overindulgent takeaway . It says: ‘LeftoverSwappers don't feel the need to eat an enormous restaurant portion, and instead pass it on to a hungrier neighbour, in turn learning their name and avoiding excess calories. ‘Through increasing the efficiency of each plot of land dedicated to food production, we can reduce our intensive use of natural resources, and reduce our expansion into sensitive environmental areas. The site points out that research has shown that 40 per cent of the food we produce goes to waste. However, there are suspicions that the app is a hoax. The app’s website features a ridiculous graph predicting that as more people use the app and reduce their food waste, there will be a rise in the Spotted Brown Owl population .

Seattle entrepreneur Dan Newman says he . and his friend Bryan Summersett conceived the idea for LeftoverSwap several years ago,when they ordered too much pizza and couldn’t fit the . remaining portions in the fridge, according to a report by uproxx.com. Good sense of humour or hint of a hoax? Some believe the new app is a prank but the developers maintain they are very serious about the concept . They said that at first it was just a joke but that over the past three years the concept seems to have made increasing sense. 'We were like, \"We don’t want to throw this out, and it would just be great to broadcast that we have extra pizza to share\",' he recalls. The idea really started to take shape after Mr Newman hosted a 'couch surfer' in his apartment who lived as a 'freegan' - meaning he only ate from other people’s plates, or from the bins. 'That was enough to spark initiative in me,' Newman said. It is not clear when the app will be launched.

The Prince of Wales and Savile were known to have had a working relationship after they met in the late 1970s while supporting wheelchair sports charities and is has long been claimed that the Prince relied on the now disgraced DJ for advice during the 1980s and 1990s. In the biography, Charles: The Heart of a King, it is claimed that Savile was regular visitor to Highgrove and St James' Palace and was once at a meeting at Highgrove being held to discuss closures to emergency services. Scroll down for video . The Prince of Wales asked prolific paedophile Jimmy Savile for advice about health policy and to read over his speeches and make any suggested changes to them, asking for his advice since they met in the 1970s . The book, by journalist Catherine Mayer, also claims the Prince once deferred to Savile to look over a speech he was due to give and make any changes, the Telegraph reported. 'One source tells of an occasion when the Prince asked his famous occasional adviser to read over a speech he was due to give on a topic unrelated to health care or any field in which Savile had expertise,' wrote Mayer. She said Savile did not make any changes on that occasion. The book sheds new light on the extent to which the Prince relied on Savile as his confidant. Savile died in 2011 and was exposed as a prolific paedophile, using his celebrity status to prey on child victims. He is said to have abused hundreds of victims, taking advantage of having free run of Stoke Mandeville Hospital, Broadmoor and Leeds General Infirmary. The book also deals with Prince Charles' relationships, revealing that he had doubts about his wedding to Princess Diana and on the eve of the ceremony said 'I can't do it.' Sarah Goodall, a former Lady Clerk to the Prince previously claimed in an autobiography that Savile gave marriage guidance counselling to the Prince and Princess of Wales. This claim was denied by Clarence House. The Prince of Wales (left) pictured with Savile (centre) and deputy Lord Lieutenant Ian Thornber (right) in 1999 . Prince Charles and Princess Diana toured Stoke Mandeville Hospital in 1983, accompanied by Savile (centre) Savile, who was exposed as a paedophile after his death, was at a charity dinner with the Prince in 1978 . Prince Charles met former world champion boxer Frank Bruno (left) in 1998 at Buckingham Palace, where Savile (centre) was also present . The biography also says the Prince no longer wants to promote the interests of British arms firms in the Middle East. Prince Charles, who like other members of the Royal Family has close links to many ruling families in the Arab world, particularly Saudi Arabia, told ministers that he 'doesn't like being used to market weaponry'. Last year BAE Systems announced a deal to sell Typhoon jets to the Saudis the day after the Prince had finished a visit to the country. Although aides insisted the deal was 'never discussed', anti-arms campaigners said it was 'clear that Prince Charles had been used by the UK Government and BAE Systems as an arms dealer'. The book claims his objections were made 'discreetly.' The prince will visit the country for two days next week - for the 12th time - as part of a whirlwind tour of Arabia, also taking in Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar and the UAE. Mayer wrote: 'A source close to the Prince says he doesn't like being used to market weaponry and now sidesteps such activities wherever possible. ' Prince Charles has signalled he no longer wants to promote British arms sales in the Middle East . Prince Charles, left, gives his country's condolences for King Abdullah, to the newly enthroned King Salman, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The Prince is due to visit the country for two days next week . The writer highlights Charles's appearance at an arms fair in Dubai several years ago, which he defended in his 1994 documentary with Jonathan Dimbleby by arguing that he was boosting trades and if the UK didn't sell them 'as a deterrent', then someone else would. Charles is regarded as a particularly valuable asset by diplomats who believe he can gain access at the very highest level to Arab rulers in a way politicians simple cannot. A Clarence House spokesman said last night: 'The Prince of Wales' upcoming visit to the Middle East is not about sales of defence equipment and is not essentially commercial. Charles has told ministers that he 'doesn't like being used to market weaponry', author Catherine Mayer claims . 'The Prince of Wales undertakes official visits on behalf of Her Majesty's Government. 'The five countries The Prince is visiting in the Middle East are important allies and key partners to the UK. 'This visit to the Middle East like others is to strengthen relationships and highlight stability in the region. 'The programme has been designed by the FCO, its Middle East Posts and Clarence House to make the most of The Prince's knowledge and expertise, and to highlight both HRHs concerns and those of the UK Government about conflict in the region.' Prime Minister David Cameron defended Britain's close relationship with Saudi Arabia yesterday – despite its appalling human rights record – saying it had given information 'which helped save British lives'. Prime Minister David Cameron said on Monday, saying it was important to maintain a relationship with the kingdom despite its poor record on human rights. The British government's decision to fly the Union flag at half-mast on public buildings following the death of Saudi's King Abdullah last month drew criticism human rights campaigners and several prominent British politicians. Asked about this decision during a question and answer session on Sky news on Monday, Cameron said the countries had a long standing relationship and it was 'a mark of respect'. Prime Minister David Cameron (pictured) defended Britain's close relationship with Saudi Arabia yesterday – despite its appalling human rights record . 'We have a relationship with Saudi Arabia partly over things like trying to achieve peace in the Middle East but crucially over fighting terrorism ... Since I have been prime minister a piece of information that we have been given by that country has saved potentially hundreds of lives here in Britain,' he said. While King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz pursued a modernising legacy of cautious social and economic reform, against a backdrop of regional turmoil the authorities had in the last year issued tougher penalties against all forms of dissent. A sentence of a thousand lashes on a blogger accused off offences including insulting Islam, cyber crime and disobeying his father has also caused international outrage. 'We don't agree with lots of things that the Saudis do ... we make very clear those differences,' Cameron said. 'I would argue if you have a relationship with them and you have a way of talking to them they are more likely to listen to you than if you just cut yourself off.'" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Biography says Prince Charles deferred to Jimmy Savile for advice .\n'Charles: The Heart of a King' claims the Prince asked the now disgraced paedophile to read over his speeches and make any suggested changes .\nThe pair struck up a friendship in the 1970s after meeting at wheelchair sports charities and Prince asked him for advice in the 1980s and 1990s .\nPreviously claimed he asked Savile for advice about his marriage to the late Princess Diana, but Clarence House has denied the claim .\nControversial biography by Catherine Mayer also claims Prince Charles no longer wants to promote British arms sales in the Middle East .\nThe Prince tells ministers he 'doesn't like being used to market weaponry'\nSavile died in 2011 and was exposed as a prolific paedophile who abused his celebrity status and hospital contacts to abuse hundreds of victims ." } ]

Yet urban bees in Canada have found a novel use for the litter. Research from the University of Guelph has revealed some urban bees have resorted to using small pieces of plastic bags and plastic building materials to construct their nests. The plastic is used as a substitute for plant resins and researchers claim it highlights the 'bees' resourcefulness and flexibility in adapting to a human-dominated world.' Researchers from Canada found two species of urban leafcutter bees, pictured, have started using small pieces of plastic as a substitute for plant resins in their nests. In both cases, larvae successfully developed and were free from parasites. The study claims this means the plastic could be making the nests more secure . ‘Plastic waste pervades the global landscape,’ said lead author Scott MacIvor, a doctoral student at York University and a Guelph graduate. ‘Although researchers have shown adverse impacts of the material on species and the ecosystem, few scientists have observed insects adapting to a plastic-rich environment.’ The flight of the bumblebee may seem clumsy and slow, but new research claims these humble insects can reach altitudes higher than the peak of Mount Everest. Despite their rotund bodies and relatively small wings, researchers from Wyoming found that bees can negotiate air so thin it would kill a human - making them the finest flyers in the insect world. In a series of experiments, scientists placed wild bees in a flight chamber and while all managed to fly at heights of 7,500m (24,606ft), two exceed heights of 9,000m (29,528ft). MacIvor, along with Professor Andrew Moore, supervisor of analytical microscopy at Laboratory Services, made the discovery while examining nest boxes in Toronto. They found two solitary bee species using plastic in place of natural nest building materials. The first bee, Megachile campanulae, traditionally uses plant resins to build its nests, yet MacIvor found evidence of a grey ‘goo’ in the bees’ boxes, which he initially believed to be chewing gum. Moore used a scanning electron microscope to take highly detailed pictures of the item, as well as x-ray microanalysis to determine the elements in the sample and infrared microscopy to identify polymers. He discovered that the M. campanulae was occasionally replacing plant resins with polyurethane-based exterior building sealant, such as caulking, in its brood cells, created in a nest to rear larva. Researchers found two solitary bee species using plastic in place of natural nest building materials. The first bee, Megachile campanulae, was found using plastic building sealant, while a second, the alfafa leafcutter, pictured, replaced parts of its nest with plastic bags . The researchers also discovered another kind of bee, Megachile rotundata, an alfalfa leafcutter, was using pieces of polyethylene-based plastic bags to construct its brood cells.The glossy plastic replaced almost a quarter of the cut leaves normally used to build each cell. Markings showed that the bees chewed the plastic differently than they did leaves, suggesting that the insects had not collected the plastic by mistake. Nor were was there a shortage of leaves for the bees in the study. ‘The plastic materials had been gathered by the bees, and then worked - chewed up and spat out like gum - to form something new that they could use,’ Moore said. In both cases, larvae successfully developed from the plastic-lined nests. In fact, the bees emerged parasite-free, suggesting plastic nests may physically impede parasites, according to the study. The nests containing plastic were among more than 200 artificial nest boxes monitored by MacIvor as part of a large-scale investigation of the ecology of urban bees and wasps, a project involving numerous citizen scientists. ‘The novel use of plastics in the nests of bees could reflect the ecologically adaptive traits necessary for survival in an increasingly human-dominated environment,’ MacIvor said. The research was published recently in the journal Ecosphere." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Researchers from Guelph University studied bee nest boxes in Toronto .\nThey discovered mysterious 'goo' in the nests of two leafcutter species .\nAnalysis found this substance was a type of plastic sealant .\nEvidence of small pieces of plastic bags were also found in other nests .\nIn both cases, larvae successfully developed and were free from parasites .\nStudy claims the plastic could actually make the nests more secure ." } ]

The procedure, called artificial iris implant, involves inserting a thin, medical grade silicone implant into the eye to alter the appearance of the iris. It was pioneered by Dr Kenneth Rosenthal, of the Island Eye Surgicentre in Long Island, New York. Scroll down for video . A surgeon has designed a permanent way of changing people's eye colour by using a silicone implant . The artificial iris implant can be used for cosmetic reasons but it can also be used to treat some medical conditions, such as heterochromia - a pigment condition which causes a person to have one eye a different colour to the other. In some cases, the procedure can even be used to restore sight. For example, in 2011 it was used to treat Nathaniel Schull, 17, who had been partially blind since birth because he was born with congenital aniridia - the absence of irises. Dr Kenneth Rosenthal has pioneered the procedure which takes 15 minutes per eye and is carried out under local anaesthetic . Following the treatment, he has near perfect vision. The procedure involves creating a 2.8mm incision in the cornea and inserting a folded implant through it. Once it is inside the eye, the implant springs back into shape and can be positioned. The implant’s manufacturer, BrightOcular, says it does not affect short or long sightedness meaning people who require glasses still need to wear their spectacles after the operation. While the surgery is considered to be safe, some patients do develop eye infections, sensitivity to light and inflammation among other complications. However, BrightOcular say the implants can be removed easily if they are causing problems. Inserting them takes about 15 minutes per eye and is done under local anaesthetic. BrightOcular say it takes between one and two months for patients to fully recover from the surgery but that they can usually go home on the day of the treatment. As with traditional forms of plastic . surgery, patients have to take it easy after the procedure - they are . not allowed to drive or to lift heavy items for a few days and cannot go . swimming for three months. Artificial iris implants are currently available in clinics across the U.S. One . patient, Chizu, from Japan, said: 'I am not a stranger to cosmetic . procedures but this has been the most fulfilling procedure I ever had . and probably the last I will ever need. The procedure involves making a small incision in the cornea before inserting the implant into the eye and moving it into position (pictured) 'I have been wearing colour contacts since my early teens which are very popular in Asia. ‘Now people can look into my light baby blues that are really mine! I really feel I now finally found my own unique special identity that sets me apart from the world.'" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Dr Kenneth Rosenthal pioneered the artificial iris implant procedure .\nInvolves making a 2.8mm cut in cornea and inserting a silicone implant .\nIt takes 15 minutes per eye and is carried out under local anaesthetic .\nPatients usually take between one and two months to make a full recovery .\nThe procedure is now being offered by clinics across the U.S." } ]

The UEFA game plan is to crowd the election hustings with as many 'credible' candidates as possible so that the anti Sepp Blatter agenda is heard loudly in as many places as possible before the ballot on May 29. Luis Figo surprisingly announced his intention to stand against Sepp Blatter to become FIFA president .

Her . family, including her 18-year-old daughter Triana Jones, who all live . in Flint, Michigan, are baffled as to how an apparently harmless woman . could have ended up in such a situation. Nicole Lynn Mansfield was shot dead by Syrian government forces along with two other Westerners - reportedly both British - The 33-year-old is from Flint, Michigan and converted to Islam several years ago following marriage to an Arab man . Gunned Down: Syrian state television showed the vehicle the woman was traveling in with a British man that appeared to be riddled with bullets . The . turning point in her life appears to have been five years ago when she . met Bafil and converted to Islam, though it is not clear if he . introduced her to the religion or if she was already interested in . becoming a Muslim. Now . MailOnline can reveal his full story for the first time - and how he has . been married three times in his quest to find the perfect housewife. Bafil, . 32, wed his first wife in Saudi Arabia in 2002 under an arranged . marriage to a Saudi woman. Both were from strict Sunni Muslim families. They . moved to Eugene, Oregon in 2006 so he could study English and then . engineering with a grant from the Saudi government which covered his . tuition fees, accommodation and living expenses. However his wife soon grew unhappy and rebelled at how she was treated. In 2007 they split up and later divorced. The friend said: ‘He carried on as if they were still in Saudi Arabia. He is very religious and didn’t allow her to get cable or to play music. ‘He did not let her drive - even in America - and the only way she could was by stealing his car when he didn’t know. ‘He hated Christianity and people who were not in the same religion as him. ‘His wife was supposed to wear the full burka. He thought a woman should be at home, cooking, watching the kids and there for sex. That’s what a woman is in his eyes.’ Bafil and his first wife have two children, a girl aged nine and a five-year-old boy. They went through a bitter court battle which ended with her being granted custody but he is allowed visitation rights when he returns to the U.S. He does so once or twice a year even though he reportedly detests America. The friend said: ‘He is completely against America. He thinks there’s too much freedom here. He thinks young people who have sex are like animals and he doesn’t like drinking. ‘The bottom line is that he thinks they (Americans) will burn in hell’. In July 2010, Bafil married Nicole in Flint having met her on the Internet but their marriage lasted just over a year. They divorced in August 2011. Her relatives have told MailOnline that it was a ‘deal’ under which he would get a green card and paid her cash and gave her a van in exchange. Daughter: Triana Lynn Mansfield, right, took to Facebook on Friday to blame the Syrian government for her mother's death while denying her accused ties to terrorism . But for Nicole at least it seems that there was definitely a commitment of some kind, regardless of her motives. The friend said: ‘She came to visit him every weekend and do the wife thing and cook and clean for him. ‘Then she would go back home and carry on her life. She paid for everything and just wanted to be there for him. ‘She would be a housewife for him, basically’. It is not clear if Nicole was already a Muslim before she met Bafil or if he persuaded her to convert, although in Islam converting a non-believer is seen as extremely praiseworthy. Regardless of which, it is likely that he brought her round to his militant viewpoint during their time together. The friend said that he was ‘capable of putting ideas into her head’ and that he was supportive of Muslims who had taken part in jihad against the Russians in Afghanistan in the 1980s with the backing of the Saudi government. The friend said: ‘He is capable of doing anything. He is manipulative and two-faced.' By October 2011, Bafil moved onto wife number three and wed Muslim convert Theresa Rutgers, who was 33 at the time and living in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Defense: Nicole's daughter Triana Lynn Mansfield took to Facebook today to defend her mother, pictured, claiming she was a 'regular American woman who was misguided by the people' The pair are now living in Saudi Arabia where he works as an engineer for Saudi Airlines and she is a stay-at-home mother. She has told friends she is extremely happy and loves her new life. During a phone conversation, Theresa, who was not aware that Nicole had died, said: ‘That’s awful news. I’m so sorry. ‘Ayman never has a bad thing to say about her. I knew they were married but it was not a bitter divorce.' MailOnline has not received a comment from Ayman Mohammed Bafil. Among those who have defended Nicole's actions have been her daughter Triana who has given a tearful interview in which she said that her mother was ‘lied to’ by whoever persuaded her to go to Syria. She claimed that her mother could not have afforded her plane ticket and that she told her last week that she wouldn't be home for a few weeks because someone stole her ID. That same ID, her Michigan state driver’s licence, was later flashed on TV screens when she was killed. Nicole’s father Greg Mansfield revealed that he contacted the FBI five years ago when Nicole traveled to Dubai and asked them to take away her passport. He has said that he ‘knew something wasn’t right’ and that if they had followed his instructions she would still be alive. Nicole’s family now want her body returned to the U.S. so they can give her a Christian burial and bury her in a plot next to her grandfather.

In a startling show of betrayal towards his fellow hackers, 28-year-old Hector Xavier Monsegur led authorities to the five people who have now been charged in court papers in New York. Dad-of-two Monsegur, who has pleaded guilty to a dozen hacking-related charges, is portrayed in court papers as the ringleader of LulzSec, and an 'influential member' of Anonymous. Ever since his arrest last June, he has reportedly been working with authorities to bring down the groups' top hackers. Betrayal: The leader of hacking group LulzSec has been identified as Hector Xavier Monsegur. Since his arrest last June, he has reportedly been working with the FBI to identify other members . The suspects reportedly include four LulzSec members - two men from Great Britain and two from Ireland - and one member of Anonymous - an American named Jeremy Hammond from . Chicago. Three were arrested and two were charged with conspiracy, Fox News reported. Hammond was arrested and appeared before a federal judge in Chicago before he was transferred to New York. 'This is devastating to the organization,' an FBI official told the channel. 'We’re chopping off the head of LulzSec.' The hackers have claimed to be responsible for a number of attacks on large companies, law enforcement and government agencies, including the CIA, FBI and Sony. They are believed to have caused billions of dollars in damages to corporations, banks and agencies. Members attained notoriety last May by attacking the PBS website and posting a story claiming rapper Tupac Shakur was alive and living in New Zealand. Caught: The information he provided reportedly led to charges for five top members across two continents. Four worked for LulzSec and one for Anonymous, whose supporters wear Guy Fawkes masks, as pictured . The group was allegedly led by Monsegur, who works under the alias of Sabu. The unemployed father of two was living in New York's Lower East Side when he was seized by authorities. They found his address after logging into a chatroom without masking his IP - the address which shows a user's whereabouts. Authorities launched surveillance and watched him for weeks - but were forced to move when a rival hacker revealed Monsegur's identity online. Anonymous is the umbrella term used to represent an internet subculture – a collection of online individuals, or 'hacktivists', who share common ideas of anti-censorship and freedom of speech on the internet. They have carried out cyber attacks on Visa, MasterCard, PayPal and Amazon, and have threatened to take down Facebook and Twitter servers. Although it is not formerly . affiliated with it, the group has connections with the lesser-known . hacking group LulzSec. LulzSec, short for Lulz Security, is an offshoot of Anonymous and some members have been parts of both collectives . LulzSec is an elite . computer hacker group that has claimed responsibility for several . high-profile, debilitating cyber attacks. Their big hits include the compromising of user account data from Sony Pictures and taking the CIA website offline. They also attacked Fox.com, leaking . the names of more than 7,000 X Factor contestants, and the PBS Newshour . website, where they posted a story claiming that slain killer Tupac was . still living and in New Zealand. The group aims to cause mayhem as well as manipulate flaws in security and passwords systems. Fearing he would destroy his hard drives - and thus evidence needed to prove his guilt - they arrested him in June last year. He pleaded guilty to 12 counts of hacking charges on August 15. His records were unsealed today, charging him with conspiracy to engage in computer hacking, among other charges. The court papers describe him as an . 'influential member of three hacking organizations — Anonymous, Internet . Feds and Lulz Security — that were responsible for multiple cyber . attacks on the computer systems of various businesses and governments in . the United States and throughout the world'. They claim he acted as a 'rooter', a computer hacker who identified vulnerabilities in computer systems. As part of Anonymous, court . papers claim he took part cyber attacks from December 2010 until last . June, including attacks on Visa, MasterCard and PayPaul, and further . attacks on government computers in Tunisia, Algeria, Yemeni and . Zimbabwe. As part of Internet Feds, he is alleged to have participated in attacks against businesses including HBGary Inc., a private security firm and Fox Broadcasting Co. And he is accused of forming LulzSec last May with other hackers, who then attacked Sony, PBS and the United States Senate, among others. Monsegur was free on $50,000 bail. Also charged in court papers with . conspiracy to commit computer hacking were Ryan Ackroyd and Jake Davis . from Great Britain, and Darren Martyn and Donncha O’Cearrbhail of . Ireland. Two of the men, who are all suspected . members of LulzSec, were arrested on Tuesday, while Davis and Martyn . have already been arrested. Fox claims Monsegur has been feeding authorities information about LulzSec ever since his arrest, bringing them down from the . inside. Questions: Jerermy Hammond from Chicgo, Illinois (left in 2009) and Donncha O’Cearrbhail of Ireland (right) Charges: Sources named Jake Davis (left), from the United Kingdom, as one of the hackers facing charges. English teenager Ryan Cleary, (right) already faces hacking charges, allegedly as part of LulzSec . Yet he has continued to be a public face . for the movement, tweeting to his followers on Monday: 'The federal . government is run by a bunch of f****** cowards. Don't give in to these . people. Fight back. Stay strong.' In August, 2011, it came to light . that Anonymous had hacked into 70 law enforcement websites, mostly local . sheriffs’ websites in Missouri. The hacks had occurred four weeks . before the discovered. Using information passed on by Monsegur, the FBI . was able to work with the server company to mitigate the damage, Fox . claims. The FBI then alerted 300 government, . financial and corporate entities around the world to potential . vulnerabilities in their computer systems. Stories . have also emerged about Sabu's far-reaching power. When the CIA found . itself under siege from LulzSec hackers, Sabu, working for the . government, told them to stop, and they did. 'He's a rockstar,' a New York-based . hacker told Fox. 'All the girls, you buy them a drink, but all they want . to talk about is Sabu, Sabu, Sabu.' Barrett Brown, a former journalist . who became closely associated with Anonymous, said Sabu's betrayal would . have a serious effect on the group. Mass damage: The hacking group Anonymous, whose logo is pictured, is . believed to have caused billions of dollars in damages to corporations, . banks and government agencies . 'He was an admired Anon,' he told AP. 'He's been a leader. People came to him with information. God knows what else he told them.' The arrested member of Anonymous, Jeremy Hammond from Chicago, was arrested on charges of hacking and device access fraud. He reportedly caused the hacking of Stratfor Security Intelligence, which led to the leak of 200GB worth of emails then published on Wikileaks. Fox sources said Hammond will be charged in a separate indictment, and they described him as a member of Anonymous. Some of the alleged associates of the group are already facing charges elsewhere. In July, reputed LulzSec spokesman, . 18-year-old Jake Davis, was arrested in Scotland. Sources named him as . one of those facing charges in New York. Another English teenager Ryan Cleary, was arrested by British law enforcement in June and charged with being linked to the group." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Leader of computer hacking group LulzSec identified as unemployed dad-of-two Hector Xavier Monsegur .\nSecretly arrested last June and pleaded guilty to hacking charges in August .\nHas reportedly been working with FBI to bring down top hackers ever since .\nCourt papers released Tuesday portray him as ringleader of hacking groups .\nFive members from UK, Ireland and US face charges ." } ]

The Vatican is to display the remains of St Peter for the first time since they were discovered in the 1940s . The Vatican is to display the remains of St Peter for the first time since they were discovered in the 1940s. The bones of the Christian martyr were found during excavations of the necropolis under St. Peter's Basilica decades ago, but have since stayed below ground. But Archbishop Rino Fisichella, president of the Pontifical Council for Promoting New Evangelization made the announcement in Monday’s editions of L’Osservatore Romano.

The remains were found during a 1940s excavation of mausoleums under the foundations of St. Peter's Basilica. The current basilica that now stands in the centre of Vatican City was built to replace the original structure built by Constantine, the first Christian emperor - he had built it because he believed it was where Peter was buried.

Discovery: The remains were found during a 1940s excavation of mausoleums under the foundations of St. Peter's Basilica (pictured) They asked for papal permission to dig . towards the high altar and when it was and there they found a simple, . shallow grave and some bones. Claim: Pope Paul VI announced the bones belong to St Peter . APeter's original tomb empty and in disarray. But after years of analysis it became apparent the bones were three different people and several animals. But it emerged years earlier one of the Vatican officials overseeing the dig had removed some bones from a niche above the grave for safe keeping. The Vatican Insider reported the bones had been inside a box. 'They . were encrusted with earth and wrapped inside a piece of purple woollen . cloth with golden thread – a particularly opulent burial. Fragments of all bones were found except those of the feet.' The bones were handed over and tests showed they were the remains of a man in his 60s or 70s and of stocky build. Written on the graffiti-covered plaster next to the bones were the words: petros emi, which means 'Peter is within'. It was Pope Paul VI who announced that the bones of St. Peter had been . found during a General Audience on 26 June 1968: 'New investigations, . most patient and accurate, were subsequently carried out with the . results that we, comforted by the judgment of qualified, prudent and . competent people, believe are positive.

According to Twitter, Zia Abdul Haq's current location is in an IS-controlled area of Ash-Shaam, also known as Syria. Friends of the 33-year-old believed the man from Logan - south of Brisbane - was moving to Syria to look for a new wife after the breakdown of his marriage, but The Courier Mail has revealed Abdul Haq is in fact fighting with the extremist organisation. Scroll down for video . The friends of Zia Abdul Haq says the father-of-one, from Logan, is a 'good-hearted guy' Two of Australia's most notorious jihadists Khaled Sharrouf and Mohamed Elomar are part of the same group. Abdul Haq is one of the latest of three men who are believed to have joined IS, including Melbourne's Abu Khaled al-Cambodi and Mounir Raad. The 33-year-old's friends described him as a 'good-hearted guy' but had been 'brainwashed' by Cerantonio - who is believed to be an influential IS figure - after hearing the radical sheik speak in Brisbane two years ago. The 33-year-old's friends claim he was brainwashed by prominent IS supporter, Musa Cerantonio - a radical sheik . 'He wasn’t a bad guy but he fell off the rails and under the spell of the extremists,' friend Yehya El-Kholed told The Courier Mail. 'Sheik Cerantonio is a hypocrite because while he urges people to go to Syria, he won’t go himself.' Since he landed in Syria, Abdul Haq - who came to Australia in his 20s and took up a job as a finance officer - has been actively posting photos depicting life as a fighter for IS on the social media site. These include M16 training, jihadists playing violent video games and cooking up a shared meal. But like Sharrouf and Elomar, Abdul Haq - who has a young son - has used Twitter as platform to fire off threatening messages, including one to foreign forces to 'bring dead body bag for each of your soldiers'. Most recently, he took aim at the U.S. saying 'Send you (men) to fight us, your drones are useless on the ground' and 'How come you fight #IS with your gays & lesbians army' on Saturday night. Abdul Haq has also hit back at media outlets circulating news about him. 'Many lies about me in Australian news. =/,' he tweeted within half an hour of reports emerging. Since arriving in Syria Abdul Haq has been posting photos on Twitter of what it is like being an IS fighter . Last month Musa Cerantonio was deported back to Australia from the Philippines after he was arrested after breaching the Philippines' immigration laws. Changing his name from Robert Edward, the 29-year-old was detained in the central Filipino city of Cebu where he was believed to have been hiding from Australian authorities, despite claiming on Twitter he had arrived in the Middle East just days before his arrest. He was found with a Filipino fashion designer claiming to be his wife, inside an apartment. Australian authorities cancelled his passport, triggering his arrest and leaving without any documentation. He was then set free when he arrived in Melbourne after deportation as he had not broken any Australian laws.

Provide a succinct and relevant summary of the provided text." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Freezing Britain was last night facing the unprecedented prospect of gas rationing.A combination of bitterly cold weather and pipeline failures has left the energy grid at breaking point. The country has less than 36 hours of gas reserves remaining and one energy expert warned yesterday that if the cold snap continues, rationing is ‘inevitable’. If this happens, businesses and power stations will be restricted first, but then householders will be ordered to cut down on the amount of gas they use for heating their homes. Britain’s gas stores are dangerously low as unexpectedly low temperatures have forced people to keep their heating on. The crisis deepened yesterday when a crucial undersea pipeline connecting Britain and Belgium shut down without warning, pushing the price of gas up by 50 per cent to a record high. Ships bringing desperately needed supplies of liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Qatar are still more than two days away, and could be delayed further because of the bad weather. The looming national energy crisis also threatens to push up household bills for hard-pressed families. The Government admitted gas supplies were under pressure, but Downing Street said David Cameron was ‘confident’ that they would not run out. But energy analysts warned that with the freezing conditions set to last into next month the consequences were ‘worrying’. Ann Robinson, analyst for uSwitch, said: ‘If this dreadful weather continues for the next two or three weeks we should be very worried, because if we get into a position where we do run out of gas there is not a lot that can be done in the short term. Running low: Britain's gas reserves could run out in 36 hours ¿ leaving the country dependent on costly foreign imports. ‘Rationing would be inevitable, for businesses and domestic users and maybe for gas-powered electricity producers as well, so we might be looking at electricity rationing too.’ She said the Government’s response to the crisis had been ‘very complacent’. Angelos Anastasiou, from investment bank Liberum Capital, added: ‘There’s a bit from the pipes and there’s LNG but that’s it. There isn’t any more. I would say rationing is a distinct possibility. We’re not there just yet, but it’s a distinct possibility.’ Energy Minister John Hayes said the issue was ‘a priority’ and confirmed he has held ‘discussions with industry and others about gas security’. Michelle Mitchell, Age UK’s charity director general, highlighted fears for the elderly if the gas shortages become a reality. She said: ‘This continuing bitter weather is a major threat to the health of older people, and older people need to know their gas supplies are guaranteed. Age UK would like the Government and the industry to offer them some public reassurance this weekend that the UK’s gas will continue to flow.’ The crisis was sparked early yesterday morning when a water pump failed at one of the four underwater pipelines that connect the UK and the Continent. The pipeline from Belgium, which has the capacity to supply around a fifth of the UK’s gas needs, was immediately shut down by operator Interconnector UK. The group said it ‘has a technical issue at its Bacton terminal which stopped gas flow into the UK’. It began pumping gas at a reduced rate later in the morning, but had to shut operations again completely in the afternoon. The full flow did not begin until late afternoon, and no one from Interconnector UK was last night able to say how much gas had been lost as a result of the outage. The other pipelines – two from Norway and one from the Netherlands – were open during the day, although one is due to be shut down at the beginning of April for routine maintenance. The daily price of gas rocketed to 150p a therm – up from Thursday’s price of 100p. It is the highest level ever seen in the UK gas markets, according to traders. It came just hours after it emerged that the UK’s domestic gas stores have fallen to a new low after millions of households turned up their heating. The stores are now more than 90 per cent empty and have less than two days’ worth of gas remaining. They are forecast to be completely empty by early next month. AS well as dwindling North Sea reserves, gas is running low in Britain because of the ‘limited’ size of storage facilities. This means the UK is in a worse position than other EU countries when families turn up the heating to cope with cold winters. At full capacity, Britain’s storage infrastructure can stockpile enough gas for up to 20 days. This compares with more than 100 days in France, 92 days in Germany and 70 days in Italy. The US protects itself against gas shortages by storing contingencies for up to six months. The historic lack of storage facilities and a failure to attract investment to build new ones has helped create the current crisis. One reason for the lack of storage facilities is that the importing of gas, whether from the North Sea or overseas, fluctuates throughout the year. In the UK, more gas is shipped in during the winter and is effectively dumped straight into the national grid so people can heat their homes. In the summer, demand drops off as householders switch off the heating. This has been the case since British Gas began exploiting the resource in the 1960s. Consequently the country has never needed huge storage facilities. On the continent, the supply of gas is ‘flatter’, according to the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies, so bigger stockpiles build up during the summer. This means countries such as Germany have bigger storage facilities. Analysts warned that higher gas prices now could push up long-term rates for next winter, adding 15 per cent, or more than £200, to the average family bill. Apart from the North Sea, Britain’s only other source of gas comes from the volatile Gulf state of Qatar. The next delivery is not due for another two days, it is understood. Ships can take two and a half weeks from leaving Qatar to arriving in Britain, and can often be delayed further by having to stop off to deliver at other ports. Energy analyst Peter Atherton said: ‘When you run out of storage, National Grid will need to start reining demand back in. ‘You get cases where ships are told to turn around and go back because Japan is willing to pay more. We can get LNG here, but we will be bidding against the rest of the world. We can get it, but we will have to pay the price.’ National Grid has protocols for gas shortages, designed to stop households being affected immediately. Power stations which run on gas are the first to be rationed. ‘They can do that to keep the lights on because we have coal and oil-run power stations which can be ramped up to meet demand,’ said Mr Atherton. But next month many of the UK’s coal and oil plants come offline to meet green regulations handed down by the EU, and will not be available as a stop-gap if another shortfall arises next winter. After the power stations, heavy industry and factories will see gas use sanctioned. Only after that has been tried will other businesses be asked to reduce usage – with households last on the list to face rations. ‘The answer is that we need more storage,’ said Mr Atherton. ‘We need to have enough to get through a winter if something happens to the interconnector pipes. Can we get through the winter on our own supplies? Other European countries can, but we certainly can’t.’ A Department of Energy spokesman said: ‘In the unlikely event of a gas supply emergency, Government and industry have in place well-rehearsed plans to ensure that gas supplies can continue, so that gas consumers would not be cut off.’ Mr Hayes said: ‘Protracted cold weather increases demand, but the UK gas market is functioning well and our gas needs are continuing to be met. Gas storage could never be the whole answer, so to think purely in terms of how many days’ supply is in storage, is unwise. We have relied on a diverse range of sources for many years.’ But Joe Conlan, of the Inenco energy consultancy, said: ‘There is a very real prospect of running out, especially given the colder weather forecast for next week, the long, cold winter and disruptions to supply as a result of a very intensive period of maintenance in Norway.’ He warned there was still a risk customers might be asked to rein in their gas use next week. His calculations suggest the UK has just one and half day’s gas supply in storage. He said: ‘The next week is critical.’The Department for Work and Pensions has made £4million in cold weather payments to help vulnerable people pay their bills during March. Not a penny was paid this month last year. Price rise: The shortfall is likely to push up the long-term price of gas and could result in household tariffs rising by up to 15 per cent before next winter ." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Plunging temperatures forced millions to turn up their heating .\nShortfall could add more than £200 to family bills, analysts warn .\nGas stores at their lowest level for three years with snow forecast .\nGovernment insists gas needs are 'continuing to be met'\nBritain relying on pipelines from Norway and shipments of liquefied gas .\nEnergy giant SSE was of 'very real risk' of lights going out .\nDowning Street spokesman said: 'It is absolutely clear that supplies are not running out'" } ]

This month is on track to be the coldest March for 50 years – and as the bitter Arctic conditions caused blackouts and traffic chaos yesterday, experts warned of an 'horrendous' death toll among the elderly. About 2,000 extra deaths were registered in just the first two weeks of March compared with the average for the same period over the past five years. Whiteout: Blizzards caused huge snow drifts leaving these cars nearly completely covered in Hadfield, Derbyshire . Blizzards: The Peak District was one of the worst affected areas as blizzards swept the UK overnight . And for February, 3,057 extra deaths were registered in England and Wales compared with the five-year average for the month. Campaigners at Age UK, which says 26,000 people die needlessly in winter every year, said the current weather could prove deadly for thousands more. Director general Michelle Mitchell said: 'Colder, harsher winters tend to lead to an increase in life-threatening conditions such as heart attacks and strokes which in turn leads to a high rate of excess winter deaths. 'For every one degree drop in average temperature, there are around 8,000 extra deaths.' The Office for National Statistics said the extra death rate 'could be to do with the prolonged period of cold weather we've been experiencing.' But it cautioned that it was too early to make an absolute link. The March figures are still provisional. Malcolm Booth, chief executive of the National Federation of Occupational Pensioners, said that last month almost 700 of his members had died, compared with 250 last year. 'If our membership is a representative sample that was replicated across the general population, then we could be looking at a horrendous number when all the figures are in,' he said.

Blizzards and power cuts wreaked havoc across large parts of the country yesterday, leaving snowdrifts of up to 15ft in Cumbria and night-time temperatures plunging to -7C (19F) in the Pennines. Power lines were down in Northern Ireland, Scotland and North Wales, leaving 50,000 homes without electricity. Ulster was hardest-hit, with 29,000 properties without power and 1,000 without water. The transport network was also crippled. East Midlands, Leeds, Robin Hood (Doncaster) and Humberside Airports were all forced temporarily to close runways for snow and ice to be cleared. Train services in the North-West were severely hit and even major roads were treacherous. In Cumbria 70 people were put up in a school after being stranded in their cars on the A595. A woman walking in the snow in Birmingham city centre . In North Wales, the Red Cross was brought in to transport vital medical staff to hospitals in 4x4 vehicles because the snow had made roads off limits to normal cars. The M62 near Rochdale was closed for a time but gritters were out to ensure the route between Manchester and West Yorkshire remained open overnight. Yesterday's sporting programme was also badly hit, with Northern Ireland's football World Cup qualifier against Russia called off for the second time in 24 hours as Belfast's Windsor Park was unplayable. Elsewhere, seven Football League games in the Midlands, Yorkshire and the North were cancelled and race meetings at Doncaster and Newbury were abandoned. Theme parks at Alton Towers and Drayton Manor Park closed, too. The Environment Agency had 59 flood alerts in place last night, covering the Midlands, East Anglia, the south east and the south west. Hundreds of schools were forced to close on Friday and many were expected to remain closed tomorrow, causing headaches for parents. Weathermen forecast that the harsh conditions would gradually diminish over the coming week but a biting wind from the east would ensure temperatures remain at 4-6C (39-42F), well below the seasonal average of 11C (52F). Greg Dewhurst of the Met Office said: 'While the rain, sleet and snow will peter out, it will still feel very cold because of strong easterly winds. The signals are that temperatures will start to return to normal after Easter.' The weather is also taking its toll on retailers, especially fashion chains where spring lines are remaining on the racks. For DIY chains and garden centres, this is normally one of the most important months. But Mandy Murphy of the British Retail Consortium said: 'Bad weather could feed through to sales being poorer than hoped for over the big bank holiday weekend.'

As we celebrated those long, hot days of July and August, the country’s wildlife was thriving too. And no species took more advantage of the balmy weather than the butterfly – the real wildlife winner of the year. natures winners and losers in 2013 . Sightings increased by an average of 80 per cent during the summer’s three official counts. Matthew Oates, a wildlife specialist at the National Trust, said: ‘It has been a fantastic year for butterflies. ‘They are one of nature’s true opportunists and they will exploit good weather ferociously.’ The cabbage white was one species that did particularly well, and conservationists were excited to see the rare long-tailed blue nesting in Kent. The extended period of warm and dry weather also saw a boom in moths, bees, crickets and grasshoppers, despite the cold, late spring. The tree bumblebee, which spread to the UK from Europe in 2001, expanded considerably – crossing north of Hadrian’s Wall for the first time. Conditions were perfect for plants like orchids, which flowered successfully in the meadows of southern England and Wales. The cool spring provided a long flowering season for early bloomers such as snowdrops, primroses and bluebells. Fluttering upwards: There was an increase in sightings of the cabbage white butterfly, pictured, as well as the long-tail blue . Later in the year, there was an explosion of berries, nuts and seeds, particularly mistletoe, followed by huge numbers of mushroom varieties. However, the cold, late spring meant food was in short supply for migrant birds such as swallows and martins. It was one of the worst years on record for barn owls, with less than 1,000 breeding pairs compared with the usual 4,000. And lack of nourishment hit breeding frogs and toads and mammals coming out of hibernation. A slug population decimated by a triple whammy of a cold winter, long spring and hot summer was good news for gardeners, who faced an infestation of the pests last year. But it also cut the number of aphids, which are an important food source for seven-spot ladybirds, hoverflies and birds like tits that feed on them. However, Mr Oates said 2013 was still ‘one of the most remarkable wildlife years in living memory’, with more winners than losers. ‘The way our butterflies and other sun-loving insects bounced back in July was utterly amazing, showing nature’s powers of recovery at their best,’ he said. ‘Great wildlife experiences make special places extra special. Best of all, this year has set up 2014 very nicely.’" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Warm summer sees number of butterflies increase in Britain .\nSightings of moths, bees, crickets and grasshoppers also increased .\nOrchids, snowdrops and bluebells also 'grew' during 2013 ." } ]

Sunderland weren’t just a First Division side, they were known as the “Bank of England Club” of that era for the huge sums of money they’d spent on the team. Yeovil, meanwhile, were in the Southern League. Player-manager Alec Stock was a real character, he scored for Yeovil and he went on to manage Fulham in the 1975 Cup Final. 3.

Explaining the process, Cole said: 'At the start of the week the editor will have a plan of how he expects it to pan out and the length of each individual match to make sure you can fit it in that BBC1 slot. Then it's constantly changing. 'At half-time you'll perhaps have another look, and then at full-time. There's also the added complication of a 5.30pm game most Saturdays so you'll have a plan and then it can be thrown out of the window by what happens in that game. 'It's a collective operation but essentially it's the editor's decision, so he'll make that decision after talking to the presenter, the pundits, some of the match directors. Manchester United and QPR have topped the Match of the Day bill on six occasions between them this term . Arsenal, in action during their recent win over Manchester City, have featured first on just two occasions . 'What you're trying to look at in a nutshell is what game do people sat at home at 10.30pm on a Saturday night want to watch most? 'There's a combination of factors that go into that. People want to see the teams at the top, there's interest in relegation battles, but also what the game's been like. Goals do have a massive impact in where you are in the running order for Match of the Day.' The rise of social media has enabled fans to interact directly with the programme, its main presenter, Gary Lineker, and pundits. The running order is now announced on Twitter ahead of the programme on a Saturday evening and flagged up throughout the broadcast. Cole said: 'Certainly the advent of Twitter and social media has made it even more hotly contested and fans aren't backward in coming forward to let us know their views. Crystal Palace, 13th in the Premier League table, have been last on Match of the Day five times . Peter Crouch celebrating for Stoke against QPR in September. The Potters have never been on first this year . 'But all we try and do is be honest and say that we're looking at it from people at home's point of view and what games they want to watch. 'We think it's important we take each programme on its merits. Across the course of the season, each team should have their time in the spotlight, certainly if they score some goals. Last season 19 out of the 20 clubs led the programme, and this season 18 have halfway through it. 'It's great to have people talking about your programme and we love social media. You have got to be careful not to take some of the comments personally. 'Match of the Day is an institution and it's absolutely phenomenal the way people still watch a highlights programme. It's when people aren't talking about you that you get worried.' Manchester City have been on first the second-most times (five) and have appeared in the top three games more than any other side - 15 times in total to Chelsea's 13. Manchester United have been first on only twice - two times fewer than second-bottom QPR - but along with Tottenham have been on the main programme the fewest times - with only 11 appearances." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Sunderland have occupied the bottom slot on seven occasions this term .\nBlack Cats have featured in the final game once more than Aston Villa .\nChelsea have been first on the most so far in 2014-15 - seven times .\nManchester City have topped the bill of the BBC show on five occasions ." } ]

Natalie Allman, 29, was battered and slashed across the throat by Jason Hughes during a seven-hour ordeal because he wanted to make her ‘ugly’ after she ended their relationship. But she has now been ordered to provide the former Territorial Army soldier with regular updates about their twin sons after he launched a legal battle from his cell. Natalie Allman, 29, who was tortured for seven hours in front of her twin sons and had her throat cut by ex-fiance Jason Hughes has been forced to write to her attacker, or face the prospect of being sent to jail herself . Ms Allman, was battered with a dumb-bell and slashed across the throat by Hughes, 42, (left) because he wanted to make her look 'ugly' after she dumped him. The pair are pictured before their split in 2011 . Under parental rights laws, Miss Allman must send letters and photos of the five-year-olds to her attacker three times a year and will be held in contempt of court if she refuses. Miss Allman, who still bears the scars of her ordeal, said yesterday that she is being wrongly made to feel like a criminal. ‘We are the victims, not him,’ she said. ‘I thought he was going to kill me that night for no reason and my boys saw that. They were terrified,’ she added. A judge has ordered Ms Allman to send three letters a year to Hughes, updating him on their five-year-old boys, pictured in 2012, and including photographs of the children every Easter, September and December . On February 3, 2011, as Ms Allman lay in bed, Hughes launched the terrifying seven-hour attack on his ex, attempting to smother her with a pillow before repeatedly bludgeoning her with a dumb bell . Ms Allman had suffered eight wounds to her head and five fractures to her face bones. She also needed cosmetic surgery to rebuild her throat . ‘I’m so angry that the law still defends his parental rights and that he is still being allowed to control us from behind bars.’ Section 8 of the Children Act 1989 deals with the arrangements for children after the break down of their parents' relationship. Should a disagreement arise between the parents, they can apply to the court for a residence or contact order to be drawn up in respect of their children. A contact order requires the parent, or other person, who the child lives with to allow a named individual to have contact with the child. It is usually used to maintain the child's links with both parents after the end of their relationship. This contact can be 'direct', meaning it is face-to-face, ‘indirect’, which may involve telephone calls, emails or letter; supervised by a third party; or the child may be able to stay overnight with the person named in the order. The order would usually define the frequency, duration, time and place of the visits, or the nature and frequency of contact by telephone, letter or other means. Sometimes the parent the child lives with may also be required to provide school reports or other information on their son or daughter. If the order is breached, a court has the power to impose a fine of up to £2,50029 or a custodial sentence of up to two years. Hughes, 42, was jailed for nine years in 2012 following the brutal attack at the couple’s home in Ross-on-Wye, Herefordshire, the year before. He had flown into a jealous rage when Miss Allman dumped him just two months before they planned to marry, telling Hughes that she was seeing somebody else. The former reservist, who had an alcohol addiction, attempted to smother her with a pillow before repeatedly bludgeoning her with a dumb bell and slashing her throat. Hughes, who was trained to use bayonets and knives in the Army, only let Miss Allman call an ambulance after seven hours. Officers arrived to find their terrified sons, then two, in bed with their mother covered in blood. Miss Allman suffered horrific wounds and needed cosmetic surgery on her throat, but later rebuilt her life and had another child with a new partner. But in January last year Hughes applied for a residence and contact order under the Children Act of 1989, demanding six letters a year as well as phone calls. Despite spending £3,000 fighting the order, a judge ordered Miss Allman to send three letters a year on the children’s school progress, health and emotional development or face a fine or jail. Hughes was given permission to send them one letter a year as well as cards at birthdays and Christmas. Miss Allman said she is sickened by letters she has already received from Hughes, which she says describe how he is allowed to play on an Xbox games console and work as a bee-keeper. She has been told to keep them in case the boys want to read them one day. She said: ‘I couldn’t believe it. ‘I could end up being split up from my children and sent to prison when he was the one who attacked me. I’m the one being treated like a criminal.’ Although she is sickened by the letters, Ms Allman has been told she must keep them in case her sons want to read them when they are older ." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Natalie Allman, 29, was battered with a dumb-bell by Jason Hughes, 42 .\nTA soldier Hughes also slit her throat in 2012 attack to make her look 'ugly'\nTheir twin boys saw the attack, and were found covered in blood by police .\nMs Allman must send Hughes updates on boys under parental rights laws .\nIf she does not she could be held in contempt of court and jailed ." } ]

'Instead of electronics or toys that will . undoubtedly be outdated, broken, or lost by the next Holiday Season,' a Walker re-election campaign email instructed, 'help give your children the gift of a Wisconsin that we can all be proud . of.' It was 'a Black Friday special that is better than any deal . found in stores,' the campaign claimed: 'Donate $5, $10 or $25 to help Governor Walker get . reelected and save your children from a future of double-digit tax . increases and billion dollar budget deficits.' Walker is riding a wave of popularity in his home state that has political wags speculating about a presidential run in 2016. Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker's re-election campaign asked moms and dads to raid their children's Christmas gift funds for political contributions . Walker's deputy campaign finance director claimed Wisconsin children would be better off with a Republican governor than with 'electronics or toys' on Christmas Day . Taylor Palmisano, who has served as the campaign's deputy finance director since July, signed the email. She did not respond to requests for comment. The liberal blog Cognitive Dissonance first published the fundraising solicitation. It compared the effort to news reports about a Cleveland, Ohio Wal-Mart that asked its employees for food donations to benefit their lower-income coworkers, and a union-driven publicity stunt that advised low-wage McDonald's employees to return their Christmas gifts and pay off their debts instead. But another political campaign pioneered the tactic last year. Obama For America, the president's re-election campaign, introduced its Obama Gift Registry in June 2012. The organization asked Democratic voters to 'register with Obama 2012, and ask for a donation in lieu of a gift' for their birthdays, bar or bat mitzvahs, weddings and anniversaries. 'Instead of another gift card you’ll forget to use,' the campaign wrote on Obama's trailblazing e-commerce website, 'ask your friends and family for something that will go a little further: a donation to Obama for America.' Real: The president's 2012 re-election campaign asked supporters to decline birthday, wedding and anniversary gifts, and send Barack Obama the proceeds instead . Spoof: Conservatives mocked the Obama team in 2012 by circulating a fake campaign announcement asking Obama voters to opt for cremation instead of burial when they die ? and send the savings to the president's campaign . Not real: Anti-Obama forces responded in 2012 with a plea for expectant parents to name their kids 'Barack' or 'Michelle' -- and make a symbolic donation, in the tyke's name, of course . Obama's campaign organization was renamed 'Organizing For Action' in 2013, and still hosts the fundraising stunt on its website. The urban legend-debunking website Snopes confirmed in July 2012 that the Obama effort was the real thing. Conservatives were quick to mock it at the time, spoofing the Obama Gift Registry with a series of parodies that quickly went viral. One, an Obama Cremation Registry, appeared to ask Obama supporters to opt for cremation instead of a more expensive burial or their dearly departed loved ones – and send the savings to the Obama campaign. 'Your loved ones will thank you – from the grave,' the comedic piece joked. Another conservative skewering was a fictitious Obama Baby Name registry, asking expectant parents to name their new children 'Barack' or 'Michelle,' mark the occasion with a $100 donation to the president's campaign, and enter a drawing for $1,000. 'Your decision to terminate a pregnancy before the election does NOT affect your odds of winning the grand prize,' snarked the lampoon's authors. The fundraising email was signed by campaign deputy finance director Taylor Palmisano (L). Walker hopes to beat back a challenge from Democrat Mary Burke (R), a former mountain bike company executive . Gov. Walker's most likely Democratic opponent in 2014 has attracted her own share of scorn. Former Trek bicycle company executive Mary Burke got a PR black eye in November when the U.S. Department of Labor ruled that as many as 20 former Trek employees were eligible for federal aid because the company eliminated their jobs by outsourcing more of its work to China. Walker swept into power, and survived a union-bankrolled recall effort, on the strength of labor policies that Democrats opposed bitterly. The state's Republican Party has come down on the side of businesses that choose to outsource jobs to save money. The governor has made some pundits' short-lists of potential GOP presidential candidates, claiming during a book tour that the White House's next occupant should be a governor, not a member of Congress.. 'It’s got to be somebody who’s viewed as being exceptionally removed from Washington,' he told ABC News, adding that 'I don’t rule anything out' when it comes to his future political aspirations." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Scott Walker campaign fundraising email said his re-election would be a better gift to children than toys or electronic gadgets .\nPresident Obama's 2012 campaign pioneered the idea of a political donation 'gift registry' for birthdays, weddings and anniversaries .\nConservatives spoofed the Obama effort at the time with fictitious registries based on funeral cremations and baby naming .\nWalker is thought of as a likely GOP presidential candidate in 2016 .\nHis opponent has her own ethical cloud related to labor practices when she was a mountain bike company executive ." } ]

The Prince and his fiancée had cold feet about the wedding and he reportedly told an adviser on the eve of the ceremony: ‘I can’t go through with it’ Mayer, whose unauthorised biography ‘Charles: Heart of a King’ is published on Thursday, quotes one of the Prince’s confidants as saying that on the eve of the wedding in 1982 he ‘was desperate’. The Telegraph reported last night how the Prince had been engaged to Lady Diana Spencer for five months after a brief courtship but she was ‘not the jolly country girl he had assumed’ but a complicated, vulnerable woman suffering from an eating disorder. He is said to have told his aide: ‘I can’t go through with it, I can’t do it’. The Prince was worried he was rushing into a marriage and Lady Diana knew the Prince had feelings for Camilla Parker Bowles (pictured with Charles) Diana found a bracelet meant for the Duchess of Cornwall which had the initials GF engraved – which she believed stood for the pet names ‘Gladys’ and ‘Fred’ they had given each other. An alternative suggestion was that it was another nickname he had for Camilla - ‘Girl Friday’. Her own pre-wedding wobbles have been well reported over the years. Diana told biographer, Andrew Morton, that she told her sisters: ‘I can’t marry him, I can’t do this, this is absolutely unbelievable.’ They said it was too late for her to change her mind as her ‘face is already on the tea towels’. Mayer said: ‘She had no idea her bridegroom also had to be coaxed to the altar’. Catherine Mayer, author of the controversial biography which is published on Thursday, said she hoped the first in line to the throne liked the book but said she thought it was 'unlikely.' 'There's a real substantial gap between the public perception of Prince Charles and who he is and what he has done,' she told This Morning. 'People often define him as against Diana but in many ways they resemble each other in their impulse to make things better.' Catherine Mayer told This Morning she hoped the Prince liked her biography but thought it was unlikely . Miss Mayer said she wrote the book after writing a cover piece for Time and had remarkably little access to the Prince for the piece, often speaking to contacts and his friends. She added: 'He is an extremely charitable entrepreneur with a most complex belief system and philosophy, which actually appears in his own book.' Miss Mayer said despite public belief the Prince was 'naive' at the time of his marriage to the late Princess Diana, having grown up in what she calls 'Planet Windsor' - 'a chilly planet.' She added: 'One of the reasons he is defined the way he is is because of his first marriage. 'One of the perceptions is that he was a cynical older man who lured an innocent girl into a relationship that was never going to be plausible.' Miss Mayer said she felt talk of Prince Charles' rise to the throne may be premature because he comes from a family that are incredibly long-lived. 'When he comes to the throne, or if he comes to the throne, we will know he is a man of strong beliefs.'" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Prince and fiancée had cold feet about wedding, controversial book claims .\nHe reportedly told adviser on eve of ceremony: 'I can't go through with it'\nBiography claims he was worried that he was rushing into the marriage .\nLady Diana reportedly knew Prince had feelings for Camilla Parker Bowles .\nMayer said there is a perception of Prince Charles, defined by first marriage .\nShe said: 'People often define him as against Diana but in many ways they resemble each other in their impulse to make things better.'" } ]

Researchers found a variety of stone structures and artifacts, including stone circles that measure 1.5 to 2.5 meters across with penis-shaped installations pointing toward them . In addition to the penis-shaped structures, researchers also found that some of the stones have vulva-shaped holes cut into them, which the team describe as 'pear shaped'. The researcher team say the sites were used by cults to worship fertility and death. It it believed animal sacrifices took place, and theat hundreds of the sites exist. 'While a comprehensive stylistic study of the stone objects is still ongoing, a preliminary interpretation suggests two symbolic aspects,' the team, led by Uzi Avner, a researcher with the Arava-Dead Sea Science Center and the Arava Institute, wrote. 'One is fertility, represented by the stones with elongated perforation (vulva-shape) and by the very combination of the elongated cell and the circle.' Death is 'signified by the burial of stone objects and by setting them upside down,' the team members wrote in their paper. In one, a humanlike stone carving was found buried with 'only the very top visible on the surface.' Other findings there include standing stones that reach up to 2.6 feet (80 centimeters) high, stone bowls and stone carvings that have a humanlike shape. These sites are often clustered together, and in one area the team discovered 44 cult sites in a spot encompassing only 0.8 square kilometers (less than 200 acres). 'Taking in[to] consideration the topography, environmental conditions and the small number of known Neolithic habitations in the general southern Negev, the density of cult sites in this region is phenomenal,' the team, led by wrote in an article published recently in the Journal of the Israel Prehistoric Society.

'Although the majority of these sites is currently recorded in the Eilat mountains, they were also found in other regions of the Negev and in southern Jordan, and therefore they represent a broad phenomenon. 'The many cult sites stand in contrast to the small number of Neolithic habitations known in the Negev and they offer a new insight into the spiritual culture of the desert Neolithic societies.' A survey of a larger area yielded to date 349 cult sites, Avner said, adding that researchers are preparing these finds for publication. 'The number of cult sites recorded to date suggests that many more still await discovery,' the researchers wrote. 'Many more may be found on the mountains of the Negev, southern Jordan and Sinai.' A survey of a larger area yielded to date 349 cult sites, Avner said, adding that researchers are preparing these finds for publication. One 'may think now of a vast phenomenon, of hundreds of mountain cult sites in the desert.' The sites also provide a good view. 'Commonly, a broad view is seen from the sites, so possibly, the scenery was one element in the selection of their location,' the archaeologists added. 'The fact that they are still visible today, thousands of years after being used, indicates that they were frequently visited, for short events, during a significant period of time and by many people. 'Since many sites contain several installations (up to eleven) and numerous stone objects, support the view that at least some sites were not just temporary." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Sites in the Eilat mountains contain phallic stone structures .\nContained stone circles with phallic carvings pointing to the centre .\nResearchers believe hundreds more sites may exist in the region ." } ]

Transcripts of telephone intercepts published in Italy claim to provide evidence that ISIS is threatening to send 500,000 migrants simultaneously out to sea in hundreds of boats in a 'psychological weapon' against Europe if there is military intervention against them in Libya. Many would be at risk of drowning with rescue services unable to cope. But authorities fear that if numbers on this scale arrived, European cities could witness riots. Separately, the militants hope to cement their control of Libya then cross the Mediterranean disguised as refugees, according to letters seen by Quilliam the anti-terror group, reported by the Telegraph. Breaking point: The officials at Lampedusa airport (pictured) are struggling to process the 1,200 newly arrived migrants in a reception centre built for a third of that number - and now Islamic State has threatened to send 500,000 to Europe's shores . Escape: Today, the spread of violence and extremism in Libya has forced thousands to flee to Italy (ferry port of Lampedusa pictured) where officials are struggling to deal with the sudden influx . Prophecy: Muammar Gaddafi predicts the Mediterranean would become a 'sea of chaos' four years before Islamic State beheaded 21 Egyptian Christians on a beach in Libya - prompting a swift and brutal response from the country who launched airstrikes on their locations . Violent coup: Muammar Gaddafi was deposed as Libya's leader in August 2011 and killed in October, when forces loyal to the government that overthrew him found him hiding in a drainage pipe in Sirte . Dangerous: Egypt's brutal airstrikes on the Libyan village of Derna - in retaliation for the mass murder of 21 of its countrymen - forced many to abandon their homes . Anxious: The Egyptians who fled their adopted home in Libya face a nervous wait before passing through the border village Sallum . Searching for safety: With militancy and violence spreading through Libya, many Egyptians living there are now returning to their home country (pictured on the border village Sallum) Italian Minister for the Interior Angelino Alfano said on Monday that Libya was the 'absolute priority' and insisted there was 'not a minute to lose' for the international community. He said: 'If the militias of the Caliphate advance faster than the decisions of the international community how can we put out the fire in Libya and stem the migration flows? We are at risk of an exodus without precedent.' More than 170,000 migrants arrived in Italy by boat last year. Since last Friday almost 4,000 have been rescued. The spread of militancy across Libya was predicted by the country's deceased leader Muammar Gaddafi, who warned the Mediterranean would become 'a sea of chaos'. ISIS had not yet made frightening inroads into Libya when he made this chilling prophecy during his last interview in March 2011. But the Arab Spring uprising that year sparked a civil war in Libya and opposition forces - backed by NATO - deposed Gaddafi in violent coup just five months after his ominous prediction. In October 2011, forces loyal to the country's transitional government found the ousted leader hiding in a culvert in Sirte and killed him. Four years later, Islamic State kidnapped 21 Egyptian Coptic Christians in Sirte - Gaddafi's birthplace - before releasing gruesome footage of their beheading on the shores of the Mediterranean, just 220 miles south of Italy. In it the terrorists warned that they 'will conquer Rome'. Fleeing terror: Over 170,000 migrants arrived in Italy by boat last year and since last Friday alone almost 4,000 have been rescued . Forced to leave: Migrants wait to board a plane at Lampedusa airport in Italy, bound for a detention center elsewhere in the country . Safe: The mainly African migrants were among some 3,800 would-be immigrants to Europe rescued in the Mediterranean since Friday, according to figures compiled by the International Organisation for Migration . Bloody realisation: Four years after Gaddafi's chilling prophecy that the Mediterranean would become 'a sea of chaos' ISIS murdered 21 Egyptian Christians on a beach in Libya . Total control: ISIS' have spread their brutal regime throughout Gaddafi's former home, with recent footage showing a fleet of brand new cars carrying its notorious black flag driving freely through Benghazi . In response, Italian security chiefs have approved plans to put 4,800 soldiers on the country's streets to help prevent terrorist attacks. The statement from the Interior Ministry said they would guard 'sensitive sites' until at least June and reports claim 500 will be deployed in Rome - where soldiers are already guarding diplomatic residences, synagogues and Jewish schools. The troops are also expected to be deployed at tourist venues such as archaeological sites and monuments. A treaty between Gaddafi and the Italian premier provided for joint boat patrols which curtailed the departure of migrant boats from Libya. But, as the Libyan despot predicted back in 2011, if the Gaddafis were brought down, Islamists would exploit the power vacuum. Still holding court in a Bedoin tent while holed up in the fortified citadel of Bab Al Azizya, Gaddafi warned: 'If, instead of a stable government that guarantees security, these militias linked to Bin Laden take control, the Africans will move en mass towards Europe.' He added: 'The Mediterranean will become a sea of chaos.' Insecurity: Four years later Lybian soldiers gather in the same square after an Islamist-led militia seized the capital . Military intervention: As Libyan soldiers protected the capital Tripoli (pictured on February 9), the elected parliament was forced to relocate in the eastern city of Tobruk . That very sea ran red with blood when Islamic State brutally executed 21 Egyptian Christians on its shores. The accompanying video, released on Sunday, showed the men dressed in orange jumpsuits and shackled - kneeling in the sand before the militants slit their throats and watched them bleed to death. Egypt retaliated furiously by launching coordinated airstrikes on ISIS targets in Libya. The European powers were putting their own security at risk by helping the rebels, Gaddafi pointed out. He told Il Giornale, the Italian newspaper owned by his former friend Silvio Berlusconi he was saddened by the attitude of his friend. They no longer spoke. 'I am shocked at the attitude of my European friends. They have endangered and damaged a series of great security treaties in their own interest.' Without his harsh, but effective, regime, the entire North African Mahgreb 'would become another Gaza,' he claimed. Power: The ominous show of discipline and wealth shows how the country has been overrun by extremism as efforts to suppress ISIS focus on Iraq and Syria . Chilling: Even young children salute the procession of cars as they pass undeterred through the streets of Benghazi . Support: The parade of Toyota Land Cruisers is welcomed by the locals in Benghazi. The video was posted by terrorist group Ansar Al-Sharia - who pledged allegiance to Islamic State last October . Overrun: The majority of Libya's coastal cities have surrendered control to Islamic State and other rebel extremist groups created to oppose the NATO-led invasion which removed Gaddafi from power . The telephone transcripts, seen by Il Messaggero newspaper claimed to provide evidence 'that IS will use the migrants as a \"psychological weapon\" against countries that say they want to intervene in Libya, in particular, against Italy.' 'As soon as our country mentioned armed intervention on Libya the jihadists suggested they let drift, bound for Italy, hundreds of boats full of migrants. The figure discussed is five hundred thousand, most of the 700,000 that are on the coast waiting to board,' the newspaper reported. Following the dire threat Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi immediately backtracked from his government's previous rhetoric saying that 'it was not the time for military intervention'.

Victim: Two police officers in a patrol car failed to notice the lifeless body of Jamie Dack (pictured), who had been repeatedly stabbed and beaten with a rounders bat in Southampton, Hampshire, in April, a court heard . His remains were found by firefighters . a short while later as they tackled the blaze in a nearby industrial estate . in the early hours of Easter Sunday, Winchester Crown Court was told. The group brutally attacked Jamie with . kitchen knives and broken bottles in a bid to get his bank card PIN, . before killing him to stop him going to the police, prosecutors claim. Their escape was revealed in a . prepared court statement by Dwyer-Skeats, who allegedly stepped into a . fight between Nicholls and Mr Dack after the young man ‘tried it on’ with Nicholls’s girlfriend. The pair separated and shook hands, . remaining in their friends’ Southampton flat. Dwyer-Skeats, Woodmansey . and friend Donna Chalk, 21, left to go on a night out in Bournemouth, . Dorset, he said. When Dwyer-Skeats and Chalk returned, . he said he found Nicholls in the flat with Mr Dack’s body lying on the . kitchen floor, covered by a duvet - and both Nicholls and the duvet were . blood stained.

Dwyer-Skeats said he tried to find a pulse and Nicholls told . him: ‘I couldn’t let him grass me up.’ He suggested they called the . police but Nicholls refused. Investigation: Firefighters found Mr Dack's badly burned remains when they were called to put out a fire at the Southampton industrial estate . Dwyer-Skeats said he and Chalk were . panicking and Nicholls pleaded with them to ‘clean the place up or . you’re going to get the same’. Dwyer-Skeats said he took the threat . seriously. He said: ‘I knew he had murdered Jamie. I couldn’t think straight - it was like a dream.’ They decided to get rid of the body, . the court heard. Dwyer-Skeats and Woodmansey found two wheelie bins - . one for Mr Dack’s body and the other for the blood-stained carpet. They were said to have been on their way to the industrial estate when the police stopped them and told them to put the bins back. After the officers left, the trio . allegedly carried on to the estate, where Woodmansey helped Nicholls tip the body . into the skip. It was then covered with petrol and set on fire, the court heard. Dwyer-Skeats said: ‘I ran as soon as I . put the carpet in - straight back to the flat, followed by Lee and . Ryan. Donna was still there.’ Dwyer-Skeats told detectives that he . overheard Nicholls phoning his girlfriend, telling her: ‘I’ve done it . for you.’ His statement ended: ‘Myself, Ryan and Donna had no part in . the murder of Jamie Dack. ‘I greatly regret helping Lee after I saw the body.

By contrast, the curse of Neb-Senu amounts to little more than an occasional inconvenience for museum curators. Over several days, the ten-inch Egyptian statuette gradually rotates to face the rear of the locked glass cabinet in which it is displayed, and has to be turned around again by hand. Those who like tales of haunted pyramids and walking mummies may regard the mystery of the 4,000-year-old relic – an offering to Osiris, god of the dead – as the strangest thing to hit Egyptology in decades. Scroll down for video . Egyptologist Campbell Price studies an ancient Egyptian statuette at the Manchester Museum, which appears to be moving on its own . Others, including TV physicist Professor Brian Cox, have a more down-to-earth explanation for its movement. Whatever the solution, the puzzle certainly won’t dent visitor numbers at its present home, Manchester Museum. The statuette’s slow about-turn has . been captured on film by a time-lapse camera, and curator Campbell . Price, 29, says he believes there may be a spiritual explanation. ‘I noticed one day that it had turned . around,’ he said. ‘I thought it was strange because it is in a case and . I am the only one who has a key. ‘I put it back, but then the next day it had moved again. The 10-inch tall relic, which dates back to 1800 BC, has been at the museum for 80 years but curators say it has recently starting rotating 180 degrees during the day . ‘In Ancient Egypt they believed that . if the mummy is destroyed then the statuette can act as an alternative . vessel for the spirit. Maybe that is what is causing the movement.’ The statue, made by one Neb-Senu in . about 1800BC, was donated to the museum in 1933, and had been . reassuringly immobile for most of that time. However Mr Price and his . colleagues are now used to finding it facing the rear of its case – . perhaps significantly, displaying a prayer on the back requesting . ‘bread, beer, oxen and fowl’. Experts decided to monitor the room on time-lapse video and were astonished to see it clearly show the statuette spinning 180 degrees - with nobody going near it . In this time lapsed video, as the museum closes for the evening, the statue can be seen in a clearly different position . By midday the next day it has turned almost a quarter of a circle to be facing to the left . The following morning the statue has moved again, and is facing even further away from its original position . By the end of the day the statue has turned almost 180 degrees and is now facing away from visitors to the museum . Their video has recorded it rotating . to its left over the course of three days until facing backwards. Even . more mysteriously, it appears to spin only during daylight hours, and . does not turn beyond 180 degrees. Some, including Professor Cox, have . suggested that vibrations caused by the footsteps of passing visitors . makes the statuette turn on its glass shelf. Mr Price said: ‘Brian thinks it’s . “differential friction” where two surfaces, the stone of the statuette . and glass shelf it is on, cause a subtle vibration which is making the . statuette turn. But it has been on those surfaces since we have had it . and it has never moved before. ‘And why would it go a round in a perfect circle?

They have both been found guilty of the horrific murder of Luczak's son Daniel, who resembled a ‘concentration camp victim’ when he died following an ‘incomprehensible’ campaign of cruelty carried out by the evil pair. Krezolek moved to Britain in 2006 despite the fact that Polish police were hunting him after he violated the terms of his suspended sentence. ‘He is a wanted man,’ a police source said. ‘He breached the terms of his sentence.’ Krezolek’s sister also revealed that he was a violent criminal who was booted out of the army for attacking a fellow recruit.

The pair were released on Sunday night and have now said that they heard a conversation between their captors in English on Skype in which they allegedly revealed that rebels launched the attack to prompt Western forces to intervene. Claims: Italian journalist Domenico Quirico, pictured after arriving in Italy on Sunday, claims to have overheard a conversation blaming rebel forces for chemical attacks in Damascus . Quirico, a veteran reporter for La Stampa daily with vast experience of reporting on conflicts in Africa and the Middle East, told the newspaper: 'In this conversation, they said that the gas attack on two neighborhoods of Damascus was launched by the rebels as a provocation to lead the West to intervene militarily. 'We were unaware of everything that was going on during our detention in Syria, and therefore also with the gas attack in Damascus.' Although Mr Quirico was quick to point out that he had no proof that the claims made in the conversation were genuine or who the men involved really were, he alleges that one of three men involved in the exchange identified himself as a Free Syria Army general. Badly treated: Pictured with Italian Foreign minister Emma Bonino, Quirico claims that he and his fellow captive were subjected to daily beatings .

According to the magazine, an unnamed Western official with knowledge of the inspection claims that the team's report will not directly point the finger at Assad, but will provide plenty of circumstantial evidence. The UN team has examined rocket casings, ammunition, tested soil and taken blood and urine samples from victims. The source told Foreign Policy: 'I know they have gotten very rich samples - biomedical and environmental - and they have interviewed victims, doctors and nurses. 'It seems they are very happy with the wealth of evidence they've got.'

Dubbed Champ, there have been more than 600 sightings of the long, underwater sea creature in Vermont’s Lake Champlain since the 17th century - and now amateur zoologists claim to have found proof of its existence. Using a hydrophone system, the monster hunters captured loud clicking sounds thought to have been made by the echolocation of a giant creature. Scroll down for video . The audio recording (pictured) was made by cryptozoologists Katy Elizabeth and Dennis Hall on Lake Champlain, Vermont. It was captured using a hydrophone system that monitors echolocation. Ms Elizabeth claims the clicking sounds made in the recording are evidence of an underwater creature called Champ . The audio recording was made by 'cryptozoologists' Katy Elizabeth and Dennis Hall in July, near a region of the lake known as Scotch Bonnet. Ms Elizabeth captured a second recording in October, but the two sound so different she is convinced the first was made by the creature known as Champ. Lake Champlain is a freshwater lake, in Vermont that stretches north into Canada, and south towards New York. The 109-mile-long (175km) lake has been called the American Loch Ness because both are deep, freshwater lakes said to date back more than 10,000 years. The recording was made by cryptozoologists on Lake Champlain, Vermont. It was captured using a DolphinEar Hydrophone system that monitors echolocation. Echolocation, or biological sonar, is used by dolphins, bats, whales and other animals. Echolocating involves sending a call and listening to echoes to determine where various objects are around them. It is used for navigating and hunting and the calls are typically made using a series of clicks, as heard in the Champ video. At its deepest, Lake Champlain is 400 ft (121 metres) - compared to Loch Ness’ 744ft (227 metres). Since 1609, there have been more than 600 reported sightings of the creature, which became a tourist attraction during the 1970s and 1980s. It became so popular that a sign was erected in Port Henry listing the names of all people who claimed to have encountered the lake monster. Many of the sightings have reported a creature with a ‘long sinuous neck’ and a humped body measuring between 15ft (4.5 metres) to 25ft (7.62 metres) long. Ms Elizabeth and Mr Hall set up Champ Search to study, investigate and prove the existence of the monster. Both claim to have become fascinated with the monster as children and in 1973, Hall was elected President of the Vergennes Chapter of the Vermont Archaeological Society and tasked to write the laws that protect archaeological sites in Vermont. The noises were captured in July, near a region of the lake (pictured) known as Scotch Bonnet. Ms Elizabeth captured a second recording in October, but the two sound so different she is convinced the first was made by Champ and the second was of a beluga whale, or similar . Ms Elizabeth thinks believes Champ is a Tanystropheus, a dinosaur that lived 232 million years ago (skeleton pictured at the Paleontology Museum of Zurich) She said: ‘We don’t know if these reptiles could echolocate, it’s one of those things that no one really knows, but something [in the lake] is echolocating’ Ms Elizabeth believes Champ is a Tanystropheus, a dinosaur that lived 232 million years ago. She told Motherboard: ‘We don’t know if these reptiles could echolocate, it’s one of those things that no one really knows, but something [in the lake] is echolocating.’ She added that other creatures have been discovered that were thought to have been extinct, and given the depths of the lake, this could be the case with Champ.

It was captured by Richard Collis - who counts himself among the most ardent Nessie cynics after years of fishing on the waters without a sighting. But the tree planter was so taken aback by the mysterious shape he noticed while driving along the edge of the loch that he filmed it on his iPhone, and believes he might have stumbled upon the real deal. The footage appears to show a long thin neck and head emerging from 500ft (152 metres) away from the shore of Loch Ness . Mr Collis said he thought the figure in the water was about 500ft away from the shore in the choppy waters . ‘As I was watching, I was thinking what the hell is that?’ said Mr Collis, 58, who noticed the shape while travelling around a mile from Fort Augustus at the south-west end of Loch Ness. He added: ‘I don’t really believe in anything like that until I see it. ‘I’m not saying it was a fire breathing dragon and I never saw teeth or anything like that, but I must have thought there was something there if I stopped to take pictures.’ An online register lists 1067 total Nessie sightings. The list was created by Gary Campbell, the man behind the Official Loch Ness Monster Fan Club and is available at www.lochnesssightings.com . Mr Campbell said: 'Jonathon's photo bears an incredible similarity to Bob Rines series of pictures and will certainly further stimulate discussion about this enduring legend.' Among the most famous claimed sightings is a photograph taken in 1934 by Colonel Robert Kenneth Wilson (below). It was later exposed as a hoax by one of the participants, Chris Spurling, who, on his deathbed, revealed that the pictures were staged.

The photo was taken by William Jobes in 2011 . The footage, lasting two minutes in total, was taken last Thursday. Mr Collis’s wife Vibeke, 60, added: ‘I’ve been here 37 years and my husband has been here his whole life, so we are completely aware of how unique this is. I couldn’t believe it and laughed when he showed me because I knew he could never set that up.

Only last week, paranormal investigator Jonathan Bright published an image taken three years ago appearing to show the head of a monster in the loch. But despite decades of speculation, the mysterious creature has so far proved little more than a myth. In 2013, this shadowy form measuring around 100ft long and seemingly having two giant flippers powering it through the waters of Loch Ness was photographed by Apple's satellite map app.The image was studied by experts at the Official Loch Ness Monster Fan Club, who concluded it is ‘likely’ to be the elusive beast." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Recording was made by cryptozoologists Katy Elizabeth and Dennis Hall .\nIt was captured using a hydrophone system that monitors echolocation .\nMs Elizabeth claims the clicking sounds made in the recording are evidence of an underwater creature .\nShe believes it is Champ - a sea monster living in Lake Champlain, Vermont .\nSince 1609 there have been more than 600 sightings of the beast .\nChamp has been dubbed the American Loch Ness Monster ." } ]

But the former Italian premier has finally found a court that is on his side- a judge in Monza has cut his alimony payments in half - to a mere £1.2million a month.

The . playboy politician has complained bitterly about the payments which add . up to £82,000 a day or £30million a year stating that the 'ridiculous . settlement' was a scandal, decided by three 'feminist and communist' judges.

The discovery was made by archaeologists from the Mexico National Institute of Anthropology and History, who admit they have no idea what the spheres are for. A tiny robot called Tláloc II-TC, which has been scanning tunnels deep beneath the famous temple, found the orbs using infrared scanners. Scroll down for video . Hundreds of mysterious spheres have been discovered beneath the Temple of the Feathered Serpent, in the pre-Hispanic city of Teotihuacan, just 30 miles from Mexico City . According to archaeologists from the Mexico National Institute of Anthropology and History, the spheres would have appeared to be made of gold because they are covered in jarosite - a bi-product of the oxidisation of pyrite, also known as Fool's Gold . Infrared scanners found the location of the chamber and the orbs. Archaeologists have no idea what the spheres would have been used for, although believe they may have been involved with religious rituals . The Tláloc II-TC is named after the Aztec god of rain. It is three-feet-long and can . squeeze through tight spaces and explore small, hidden areas. It is fitted with video cameras and a . mechanical arm used to clear obstacles out of its way. It is part of a robotic system called Tlaloque, which includes a large rover that carries the two smaller robots. Once the Tlaloque arrives at a chamber, the robots break off and scan the area using infrared scanners. A separate flying drone captures video footage. They were hiding in a previously unexplored ancient chamber at the end of a stretch of 2,000-year-old unexplored tunnel on the Teotihuacan site, near the Pyramid of the Sun. Jorge Zavala, an archaeologist on the dig said: 'They look like yellow spheres, but we do not know their meaning. It’s an unprecedented discovery.' The spheres are made of clay and range from 1.5 to 5 inches in circumference. They get their yellow colour from a material called jarosite. Lead archaeologist Sergio Gomez explained that the spheres appear to be made of metal because jarosite is formed by the oxidation of pyrite, which is a metallic ore also known as Fool's Gold. The walls in the chamber were also found to be dusted in pyrite, which gave it an appearance of a gold room. The archaeologists therefore think that the orbs would have been used by 'high-ranking people, priests, or even rulers' to perform rituals within the tunnels. Although, the team admit what part they played in these rituals, and what these rituals meant remain a mystery. The team from the Mexican Institute have been using the robot for months to explore the tunnels under the celebrated temple, also known as the Temple of Quetzalcoatl. Explorer: This robot may have made a momentous discovery in a 2,000-year-old tunnel in Mexico . The was the first image transmitted by the robot deep under the ancient temple . Famous: The social structure of Teotihuacan remains a mystery after nearly 100 years of archaeological exploration at the site . Teotihuaca means 'the . place where men become gods'. The site is thought to be a burial ground. The . Teotihuacan people worshipped eight gods, and were known to carry out human sacrifices. The ancient city was . founded 2,500 years ago and was once one of the biggest cities on Earth . with over 100,000 residents - Earth at this time only house 200 million . people. The city was totally abandoned in 700 AD and very little is know about the civilisation, or what caused the mass exodus. The temple lies about 37 miles north of Mexico City and the site houses the remains of the pre-Hispanic city of Teotihuacan in the Basin of Mexico. It is best known for the towering Pyramids of the Moon and the . Sun. Earlier this year, the team and the remote-controlled robot found three unexplored passages. It was only expected to find one. The discovery of the hidden passages and golden orbs could be highly important. In 2010 experts said a tomb discovery . would be significant because the social structure of Teotihuacan remains . a mystery after nearly 100 years of archaeological exploration at the . site. When the civilisation was abandoned, almost 50,000 high-value objects including jade, stone, shell and pottery, such as ceramic beakers, were thrown into the tunnel because it was closed up. The remote control vehicle is equipped with a video cameras and a mechanical arm to clear obstacles out of its way as it maneuvers through the tight passageway . Tourists look on at the archaeological area of the Quetzalcoatl Temple about 37 miles north of Mexico City . This map shows the chambers of the tunnel, found beneath the Temple of the Feathers Serpent, as plotted by the laser scanner. Archaeologists were only expecting to find one chamber, but the robot discovered three hidden rooms . No depiction of a ruler, or the tomb of a monarch, has ever been found, setting the metropolis apart from other pre-Hispanic cultures that deified their rulers. Vertical excavations begun in 2009 to reach the mouth of the tunnel suggest this was a ruler's tomb, claims Gomez. 'I think the tunnel was the central . element, the main element around which the rest of the ceremonial center . was built,' Gomez said. 'This was the most sacred place.' 'There is a high possibility that in . this place, in the central chamber, we can find the remains of those who . ruled Teotihuacan,' he added.

The heroic doctor who helped the United States pinpoint the location of Al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden has been held in complete isolation in a Pakistani prison since September 2012 - without access to lawyers or family - as he waits for a court to decide his future, according to a letter smuggled out of the country by a supporter. Shakil Afridi, 49 - who worked with the CIA on a fake vaccination operation to confirm the presence of bin Laden in an Abbottobad compound, resulting in the fateful May 2011 SEAL mission that killed the terrorist mastermind - is regarded as a hero in the US but has been tried as a traitor in Pakistan. Originally sentenced by a court in a remote tribal area to 33 years jail for 'conspiring against the state', he now awaits a new verdict to be handed down on Dec. 18 on whether he will serve out the term or be granted a retrial. But, according to a one-and-a half page handwritten letter smuggled out of Peshawar prison, Afridi says he is being denied basic rights at a time that is crucial. 'My legal right to consult with my lawyers is being denied,' he wrote in the letter. 'What sort of justice system is this?' The authenticity of the letter - obtained by Fox News - has been verified by Afridi's cousin, Qamar Nadeem, who used previous correspondence to match the handwriting. Nadeem said the letter, written in the Hindustani language Urdu, also referred to the 'mental torture' the physician is forced to face with on a daily basis. Afridi was arrested soon after the unilateral raid by US commandos that killed Bin Laden. While he was arrested for running the fake vaccine operation, his 33-year sentence was for allegedly being a member of militant terror group Lashkar-e-Islam, which he has vehemently denied. Pinpointed: Afridi ran a vaccination program for the CIA to collect DNA in an attempt to verify Bin Laden's presence at a compound in the town of Abbottabad (pictured), prior to the U.S. raid that killed him in 2011 . The sentence was widely seen as punishment for assisting the United States in the capture and kill of Bin Laden, which came at a major international embarrassment to Pakistan. Dead: Osama bin Laden was killed during a covert US mission to Pakistan in May 2011 . In the almost-10 years between the 9/11 attacks in 2001 and the mission, the country continually said it was not plausible for the Al Qaeda leader to be hiding in Pakistan, only for him to be located in one of their most affluent towns. The operation subsequently lead to suspicions Pakistan were harboring Bin Laden. In August, Afridi's conviction was overturned, with a court citing procedural errors and ordering a retrial. However the judge that overturned the sentence soon died in a suspicious gas explosion at his Islamabad apartment. The trail court has since to grant the new trail and, as the final nears, local authorities have gathered a host of other charges together in an attempt to keep Afridi imprisoned if the terrorist charges are dropped. One is the 'murder' of a teenage boy, who died after the doctor performed surgery on him for appendicitis in 2006. A three-member tribunal, which operates under the archaic tribal law system, heard arguments on the merits of a new trial at a court in Peshawar on Monday. The tribunal’s decision, which could force local authorities to launch a new trial, is expected to be handed down on Dec. 18. Behind bars: Afridi has remained jailed in Peshawar Central Jail (pictured in this file photo) since 2011. In a new letter smuggled out of the prison, the physician writes he has been denied access to his lawyers and family since September 2012 . 'We are confident that Dr. Shakeel Afridi would be freed after a free and fair trial,' said Afridi’s lawyer, Samiullah Afridi. But others from the defense team feel the case has been crafted on political rather legal grounds and a favorable verdict is unlikely.

The Michigan Department of Human Services is taking steps to end Blair's rights to her two other children, a 17-year-old daughter and an 8-year-old son, who are currently with a relative. In a court filing, the state said her daughter described a home where she and her surviving brother were beaten with an extension cord and piece of wood and hit and burned with a hot curling iron. Medical exams revealed evidence of abuse, including numerous scars, on the surviving children. Twenty-five scars were found on the boy's back that were consistent with being hit by an extension cord, according to a petition obtained by the Detroit News. Blair's teenage daughter also described how her siblings were killed, according to court papers. 'Blair tortured Stephen for approximately two weeks prior to his death by tying a belt around his neck, throwing hot water on him while in the shower and putting a plastic bag over his head,' the state said, quoting the 17-year-old. Court officers serving an eviction notice at Blair's home (pictured) opened the freezer and found the bodies of her daughter Stoni Ann Blair and her son Stephen Gage Berry . In a court filing, the state said the teen described a house of horrors, where she and her surviving brother were beaten with an extension cord and piece of wood, hit with a hot curling iron and burned with a clothing iron . Stephen was 'unresponsive' on Aug 30, 2012, and Blair wrapped his body in bed linen and put him in the freezer, the state said. Nine months later, Blair became 'enraged' when Stoni said she didn't like her surviving siblings and strangled the girl with a T-shirt and suffocated her with a plastic bag, the department said. Blair then made the teen 'put Stoni in the deep freezer following her death,' the agency said. The bodies of the children were discovered on Tuesday while court officers were serving an eviction notice. The apartment was reportedly filled with food and trash and rendered almost 'unlivable', according to the report. Blair's 8-year-old boy also was aware that his sister and brother were killed and subsequently placed in the freezer, the department said. While being questioned, Blair told investigators she placed Stephen 'in a boiling hot tub of water until his feet blistered' because she found out Stephen was allegedly sexually assaulting a relative, according to the Detroit News. Blair also told police that when he died, she wrapped him 'in his favorite blanket' and put him in the freezer, the police report states. The surviving children did not mention sexual abuse when they were interviewed by counselors, according to a juvenile court petition. A woman walks past notes left on the door at at the family's home on Wednesday. The teenager said neither she nor her siblings have attended school for two years . Blair's teenage daughter said neither she nor her siblings have attended school for two years. Neighbor Shanetria Lanier, 21, told the Detroit News Blair home-schooled her children and 'that's why no schools were wondering where they were'. There is no record of the children attending classes, according to a Detroit Public Schools official. People did notice that two of her children seemed to disappear about a year ago. Lanier told the newspaper: 'When people asked her where her other two kids are, she said they were at their aunt's house. 'Or sometimes she'd tell people they stayed inside because they didn't like to be around people.' Tori Childs, who also lives in the complex, told the Detroit News she often saw the children and sometimes gave them clothes or food. She said they were 'the nicest kids' who were 'so respectable'. 'This is just wrong,' she said in tears. Childs said she saw two bodies on the floor after police arrived at the home on Tuesday. 'It was a little girl and a little boy,' she said. 'The little girl had on a pink jacket.' Earlier Thursday, Blair appeared in court on child abuse charges via a video feed from a police lockup. Magistrate Renee McDuffee entered a not-guilty plea on her behalf. The state said it investigated allegations of abuse in 2002 and 2005. Blair was referred to counseling and allowed to keep custody of her children. Toni Williams, 28, left, and Natasha Bell, 30, leave balloons at the house on Wednesday . The two fathers of Blair's surviving children are unfit to care for them, according to the state. Together they owe $50,000 in child support and haven't seen the kids in two to three years. Neighbors say Blair has lived in the complex at least 10 years. She was unemployed and having money troubles, and she had gotten behind on her rent. Neighbors said they knew about the impending eviction. Court records show a judgment filed last month against her for $2,206 owed to the complex. 'While we all understand the desire to know what happened in that home is strong, I will ask you to be mindful of the two children who were also in that home and are still living,' Detroit Police Chief James Craig told reporters Wednesday. 'They've been through a lot, a tremendous trauma.'" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "The deaths of Stoni Blair, 13, and Stephen Berry, 9, have been ruled a homicide .\nTheir mother Mitchelle Blair, 35, is charged with child abuse, but could now face murder charges .\nBlair's surviving children were discovered to have been terribly abused, according to child welfare officials .\nBlair's 17-year-old daughter said her mother forced her to put her sister's body in the deep freezer .\nHer 8-year-old son said he knew his brother and sister were killed and put in the freezer ." } ]

The move, which was first revealed by MailOnline on Friday morning, has been in the pipeline for many years as Arsene Wenger has monitored the Swede’s progress following his move to Lyon in 2006. Kallstrom jetted in from Spartak Moscow’s warm weather training base in Abu Dhabi to complete a medical on Friday.

Honours: Ligue 1 title (2007 and 2008), Coupe de France (2008 and 2012) Nationality: Swedish . International caps: 108 . International goals: 16 . Kallstrom said: 'Arsenal is an amazing club with a lot of great players and a coach who has done really well here for a long time. I am so pleased to come here to learn as much as possible. 'I’m here to do my best for Arsenal and to help out the team, so we can achieve good results for the last part of the season.' Kallstrom will arrive on these shores with something of a muddled reputation.The name is familiar, it has been for the best part of a decade. Only now, however, will we be able to pass judgement on the left-footed playmaker with a fancy for free-kicks who, to the consternation of many Arsenal fans, turns 32 later this year. For despite his lingering presence in our psyche, Kallstrom remains something of a mystery. Late bid: Wenger's move for the ex-Lyon midfielder came out of the blue . Twice he has lined up for Sweden against England at major tournaments, first during the 2-2 draw in Cologne at World Cup 2006 and then again at Euro 2012 as the Three Lions emerged 3-2 victors in Kiev. He was also part of the Sweden side – inspired by four-goal Zlatan Ibrahimovic – who enjoyed a 4-2 friendly-match triumph over England in November 2012 and has appeared 108 times for his country.During six years at Lyon he regularly locked horns with British clubs in European competition and, just last season with Spartak Moscow, he was sent off during the closing stages of a 2-1 defeat at Celtic. Hammer time: Kallstrom possesses is famed for possessing a sweet left foot . Back in October while playing for Sweden against Germany, this photograph of the midfielder with young mascot Max went viral. It shows Kallstrom helping the young fan, who has Williams syndrome, before the game. Max’s father wrote a letter to Kallsrom saying: ‘I am writing to you because I’m not quite sure if you understand how much of a difference you’ve made to us. ‘Because of your actions my son was able to experience exactly the same feelings as everyone else: pride, a sense of being special.’ Then there is his association – . unfortunate or otherwise – with the Championship Manager series, the . computer game which forecast big things for Kallstrom during his . formative years with Djurgardens IF in his homeland. No team was complete without the bargain buy from Scandanavia who would go on to superstardom in this alternative universe. So when Kallstrom did leave Sweden in the direction of France aged just 21, it was seen as the natural progression on a journey destined for one of Europe’s top clubs. After two-and-a-half years with Stade Rennais and on the back of his four appearances at the World Cup in Germany, champions Lyon moved for the midfielder. There he would spend six seasons as a virtual ever-present, scoring 22 goals from 269 appearances and collecting two Ligue 1 winners’ medals and two Coupe de France trophies along the way. Never, though, did he scale the heights once expected and, when Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas admitted he was willing to let the player go, Spartak came in with a £3million bid in the summer of 2012.

Former hospital matron Beatrice Morgan, 88, suffered the injuries while she was a resident at the Greencroft Care Home in Queensferry, Flintshire in August 2012. It had been expected that Greencroft Care Ltd could have faced a fine in the region of £100,000 for breaching health and safety rules. Scroll down for video . Beatrice Morgan, left, who died after suffering severe burns when she was lowered into a scalding hot bath by care workers. She has previously worked as a hospital matron, right, at the Wrexham Maelor Hosptial in north Wales . However, at Flintshire Magistrates Court on Thursday, the company was fined just £5,000 after the court heard how they had been in liquidation since last May. District Judge Gwyn Jones also said it was unlikely it would ever be collected. Despite the sanction, owner Timothy Ogunleye, 52, who lives in a £1.6million home in Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire, and has combined assets of £5.7million, remains the director of seven other care homes which can house up to 336 residents. Two are being inspected by the care watchdog. Miss Morgan, from New Brighton near Mold, suffered from dementia and became a resident at the Greencroft Care Home, which specialised in care for the elderly. In September 2012 she died from pneumonia and a blood clot in her lungs caused by the burns at a specialist burns unit at Whiston Hospital, a month after she was lowered into the scalding hot bath. The court heard how the care home had no effective control over the temperature of the hot water at the home, no risk assessment had been carried out, and there had been little staff training. Prosecutor Simon Parrington said Miss Morgan suffered scald burns to her lower legs, trunk and left arm. After the incident thermostatic control mixer valves were fitted at the home. Yesterday Greencroft Care Ltd, pictured, was fined just £5,000 at Flintshire Magistrates Court after breaching health and safety rules . The court heard how the care home had no effective control over the temperature of the hot water at the home . The temperature of the water at the time of the incident was not known but tests on another bath which had not had the new values showed the temperature to be 50.7C. Health and Safety Executive inspector Katherine Walker said that the maximum safe level was 44C. An investigation also showed that there were old values present but they were behind wall panels, had not been maintained and the company did not know they were there. A new value control had been placed on the bath in which Miss Morgan was scalded before she arrived to start her investigation, the inspector added. Judge Jones said Miss Morgan was extremely vulnerable and frail and that the temperature of the bath was not controlled by a correctly adjusted thermostatic valve. Susan Laws, left, and Ann Elliot, Miss Morgan's nieces who said their aunt would have been shocked by the care she received . He added that it was 'a very, very basic requirement – in fact, a matter of common sense.' He explained: 'The company either did not care for the safety of its residents or it could not be bothered to bring the standards of the home to a minimum standard which would have prevented the potential risks. 'Members of staff were doing their best in difficult circumstances, there was little staff training and little if any staff support. 'There was very little if any staff supervision and no risk assessment. Even the most basic risk assessment did not come until after she was scalded.' The judge also added that there was no bathing policy and improvements had not been carried out because he said 'the company, to put it mildly, did not want to spend.' He said: 'Company directors and senior managers know and ignored the risks. 'It is clear that this company was running an establishment without understanding their responsibilities.' An inspection by the Care and Social Service Inspectorate for Wales raised serious concerns about the dignity and safety of the Greencroft home’s 26 residents, including poor staffing levels and training, cleanliness and security. It went to court to apply for the home’s immediate closure. Miss Morgan had never married and had been proud to work as a matron at the Wrexham Maelor Hospital in Wrexham, North Wales. After she retired, she continued to be active in her local community, where she was described as a feisty lady until she was 80. Miss Morgan's nieces Ann Elliot and Susan Laws travelled from Kent for the hearing and said their aunt would have been shocked at her treatment given the way she had cared for so many people during her nursing career. Mrs Elliot explained: 'It is shocking that she was scalded this way – it is such a basic caring procedure that everybody does every day. 'They said that they understood the way the judge had to deal with it because the company no longer existed. 'I hope it makes other care homes think of what they are doing.

The shocking murder of Elizabeth Short, known as the Black Dahlia, is one of the oldest unsolved murder cases in Los Angeles history. On Jan. 15, 1947, Short's severely mutilated body was discovered in a vacant lot near the intersection of 39th Street and Norton Avenue in South Los Angeles. WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT . Black Dahlia: A head shot of Elizabeth Short who had been an aspiring actress until her untimely murder . Black Dahlia: The body of Elizabeth Short had been severed at the waist and completely drained of blood, her face had also been slashed from the corners of her mouth toward her ears . The body of Elizabeth Short, 22, had been severed at the waist and completely drained of blood. Her face had been slashed from the corners of her mouth toward her ears, creating an effect known as a Glasgow smile. Short also had multiple cuts on her thigh and breasts, where entire portions of flesh had been removed. The body had been washed and cleaned and had been ‘posed’ with her hands over her head, her elbows bent at right angles, and her legs spread. The gruesome murder generated masses of media interest at the time. The newspapers of the day, which had a habit of nicknaming colorful crimes, started referring to Short as the Black Dahlia after the then popular film The Blue Dahlia. To add to the case’s sense of mystery and intrigue, both LAPD officials and newspaper editors received taunting notes believed to be from Short's killer. Steve Hodel, right, with cadaver dog handler Paul Dostie, and Buster, searched the Sowden/Franklin House at 5121 Franklin Ave., Hollywood for evidence in November 2012 . Sowden House, the potential murder scene and Dr George Hodel, who was a suspect in the original investigation and who Steve Hodel believes is responsible for the murder of the Black Dahlia . The Los Angeles District Attorney office drew up a list of 25 people it considered viable suspects, although as many as 60 people have confessed to the murder at one time or another. In his 2003 book ‘Black Dahlia Avenger,’ Steve Hodel first made the claim that his father, a doctor, was responsible for the murder. George Hodel had been a suspect in the original case and investigators had even planted a bug in the house to listen for incriminating admissions. But before authorities brought charges, Dr. Hodel abruptly abandoned his family and relocated to Asia. He died in 1991. Steve Hodel believes his father killed the Black Dahlia at the family’s then home, the distinctive ‘Sowden House’ in Hollywood, which is largely unchanged and looks the same as it did at the time of the murder. Elizabeth Short's mutilated body was found in a vacant lot near a busy intersection on the southwest section of L.A. in 1947 . Not long before her death, Short was arrested in Santa Barbara for underage drinking and this police mugshot was taken . Hodel was also able to establish that he and his siblings had been away with their mother at that time. When the opportunity arose for Hodel to return to his childhood home, he jumped at the chance after producers of the SyFy Channel’s Ghost Hunters program arranged it with the current owners. Last November Hodel, together with retired police Sgt. Paul Dostie of Mammoth Lakes and Buster, a Labrador retriever trained to detect the unique smell of human composition, visited the property. Once let loose, Buster quickly established four locations in the basement where he could pick up a faint trace of human remains. The basement had never been finished and since the floor was still dirt, soil samples were taken.Hodel is awaiting the results of those samples, which might once and for all confirm who killed the Black Dahlia.

Now Sturridge, who injured his calf during a warm-up at Melwood on Thursday, will miss a number of crucial games, including home and away Champions League group games against mighty Real Madrid. Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge is expected to be out of action for around three weeks . Sturridge has been sidelined since picking up a thigh injury while on international duty with England .

Liverpool have seven games in the next three weeks, including a last 16 Capital One Cup tie against Swansea on October 28 and a Barclays Premier League clash against Chelsea at Anfield on November 8. Sturridge was recovering from a thigh problem suffered on England duty in September. The injury led to a rift between Rodgers and England manager Roy Hodgson over the striker’s recovery schedule. Despite Rodgers doing his best to play it down on Friday, lingering bad feeling remains, after Hodgson suggested that the Liverpool manager’s practice of having a two-day recovery period for players after games is a waste of time. Ironically, Sturridge could be fit just as Hodgson is building up to England’s next Euro 2016 qualifying game against Slovenia on November 15. Sturridge, pictured scoring against Italy at the 2014 World Cup, could return to action against Slovenia . The fall-out from the last Euro 2016 tie continued on Friday with Rodgers suggesting that Hodgson failed Raheem Sterling by revealing publicly that the forward had admitted to feeling tired ahead of the Estonia game. According to the Anfield boss, Sterling, who is in Liverpool’s line-up to face Queens Park Rangers, returned to Merseyside this week shaken by the furore surrounding his omission from the England team. Rodgers believes Hodgson should have kept the conversation he had with Sterling in the build-up to the game private and hinted that he feels the England boss needs to learn a lesson. Rodgers said: ‘Every conversation you have with a player is private. ‘That’s how I work and I am sure Roy will probably look at this episode going forward and analyse where he can be better on it. ‘I’m sure when they [Sterling and Hodgson] meet up next they will speak on that and clear that up. ‘My only focus is getting Raheem’s confidence up. All this shook him a bit but he has been brilliant in training. This is a kid we bring up to be responsible and be honest.’ The Liverpool manager is incandescent that some people believe Sterling actually asked not to play for England last weekend. Rodgers has questioned Roy Hodgson's handling of Liverpool and England starlet Raheem Sterling . Asked if the FA should have clarified this, Rodgers said: ‘Maybe. I can’t control what he [Hodgson] says or thinks. ‘What has been disappointing and grossly unfair is how the kid has been on the back page for something he did not say. ‘He did not say he was not able to play. What he said was he felt tired, and what you do is take on board all the information and then make a decision. So you respect Roy’s decision not to play him. ‘Roy is a manager with great experience who has been around the game long enough and all managers deal with situations differently. ‘But I have one thing to clear up. I have seen a lot written about the second-day recovery. ‘People think Liverpool players are at home on day two with their feet up watching Sky Sports. That couldn’t be further from the truth. Liverpool boss Rodgers believes England manager Hodgson could have dealt with Sterling differently . Rodgers and Sterling shared a joke on Friday as Liverpool geared up for their league fixture against QPR . ‘My belief and training model is to make players better. Part of that is recovery as my game is about pressing and playing at a high physical level. Our second-day recovery is technically a session. The space we play in is very small to reduce the intensity. ‘That has worked for me all the way through my life and has kept players fit and fresh. ‘That has helped people here like Steven Gerrard to play as many games (as he has). Recovery is vital, physical and mental. I take great pride in it and give it a lot of focus. ‘I’m not waiting for a thesis to give me evidence. We’re at the edge of the game creating evidence ourselves.’ This week former Liverpool players Jamie Carragher and Michael Owen have suggested it was unusual for a player to give a manager an excuse to leave him out by admitting he was tired. Jamie Carragher (left) and Michael Owen (right) were both critical of Sterling's decision to admit he was tired . Rodgers said: ‘The speed of the game is different even to what it was five years ago. Players cannot play every game at the top level, in particular young players. If you put too many miles on the clock, you will break them and they will end up finished at 26 or 27. ‘What I’ve been really proud of in watching Raheem is his honesty and responsibility. Responsibility is for a 19-year-old boy to say he was tired. This is a kid who loves playing. He never misses a day’s training, the work ethic he puts in for his game is fantastic. He loves playing for England. ‘Around the time of getting the call-up I see the excitement in his eyes. This is a boy that felt a bit tired and if you asked half or three-quarters of the squad they will probably have said they felt a bit tired too.’ Rodgers also hinted he would have no problem with Sterling playing in next summer’s Under 21 European Championship. Rodgers hopes events of the last month will not sour his relationship with the FA or with Hodgson. He said: ‘We have served England well with the numbers of players we push through for the national team and the style of football we play.’" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Liverpool ace Daniel Sturridge could miss Liverpool's next seven games .\nThe England international is likely to sit out his side's Champions League two Champions League showdowns against Real Madrid .\nSturridge injured his calf during a warm-up at Melwood on Thursday .\nBrendan Rodgers has criticised Roy Hodgson's handling of England starlet Raheem Sterling ." } ]

Having successfully tested their energy harvester with microwaves, the researchers claim it could be used to harvest the signal from other sources such as satellite signals, sound waves or Wi-Fi signals. ‘It’s possible to use this design for a lot of different frequencies and types of energy, including vibration and sound energy harvesting’ said Katko. ‘Until now, a lot of work with metamaterials has been theoretical. We are showing that with a little work, these materials can be useful for consumer applications.’ Katko continued that a metamaterial coating could also be applied to the ceiling of a room and used to redirect lost or dropped Wi-Fi signals. The researchers added that a similar device could one day be fitted to phones and other small electronic devices. This could make it possible to charge phones by connecting it to a Wi-Fi network, without the need for a charger or power point. ‘Our work demonstrates a simple and inexpensive approach to electromagnetic power harvesting,’ said Cummer. ‘The beauty of the design is that the basic building blocks are self-contained and additive.

In a stark contrast, the model is mostly ignored by passers-by during her five hour experiment. In the original video, aspiring actress Shoshana Roberts was filmed walking through New York city for 10 hours, and was subjected to 108 catcalls and even followed by several overly-persistent men. She was pelted with dozens of unsolicited comments, including: 'What's up beautiful?', 'Hey baby', 'sexy' and ‘damn, girl!’. It appears that Kiwis are far more polite, as model and yoga instructor Nicola Simpson was treated respectfully during her five-hour experiment on the streets of Auckland. Although she did received glances from admiring passers-by, who stopped or turned around to watch her, she was not confronted or harassed nearly as severely as the original video. In her social experiment, Ms Simpson did not receive the same wolf-whistles, nor were suggestive comments yelled at her, and she was only approached twice which were both in polite circumstances. Scroll down for video . Model Nicola Simpson recreated the New York experiment by walking through the streets of Auckland, New Zealand for five hours behind a hidden camera . Although the camera did capture people stopping to look at her, she did not receive the same contronting harassment that Ms Roberts was subjected to in New York . The New York video was filmed as part of a campaign for ‘Hollaback!’, a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to ending street harassment. Whilst Ms Roberts, 24, had suggestive comments yelled at her while she walked around New York City, dressed modestly in jeans and a high-neck t-shirt, Ms Simpson, dressed in a tracksuit, was left to her own devices. New Zealand Herald were behind the latest experiment, filming Ms Simpson’s journey discreetly with a Go-Pro. Although she does attract glances, she is only disturbed twice; once by a man asking for directions and the second time by a man who apologises for interrupting her. The man who interrupts Ms Simpson is clearly taken with her, walking past her before turning around to introduce himself. Although she does attract glances, she is only disturbed twice; once by a man asking for directions and the second time by a man who apologises for interrupting her . The man, who ‘sounds European’ according to the subtitles, jogs down the street to tell Roberts that she ‘looks nice’. It may be interpreted as sinister, but the video makes it clear that he apologises for stopping her. In a stark contrast, Ms Roberts is followed down the street by a man for more than five minutes, pestering her with comments like ‘you don’t want to talk?’, ‘if I give you my number will you talk to me?’ When the video was posted, NY-based Roberts explained her involvement in the awareness campaign by saying, ‘everyone has a right to feel safe.’ 'This happens daily to so many people. We don't put up with harassment in school, at home, or at work, so why should we have to put up with it on the street?' The Herald explain that they shot the footage to try and measure the level of street harassment that women experience in Auckland. New Zealand Herald were behind the experiment, filming Ms Simpson’s journey discreetly with a Go-Pro . They define street harassment as ‘sexual comments, catcalls and whistles from male strangers’. Ms Simpson says that she found New Zealand men to be polite and that it was a refreshing change after her experiences living in New York for five years. \"It was nice, it was a change from New York. People were actually quite polite,\" she told New Zealand Herald. \"I didn't feel uncomfortable at all.\" The New York experiment has received more than 33 million views. The New Zealand appropriation has had more than 600 thousand clicks in three days. The set off a storm of outrage since it was released Tuesday. Rape threats have since been directed toward Shosana Roberts, the woman in the video, according to multiple reports. The footage, which was shot and edited by Rob Bliss, was captured by a camera Bliss had in his backpack as he walked several feet of front of Roberts, who was dressed in jeans and a T-shirt and walked silently along. Unwanted attention: Shoshana Roberts appeared in the original video, which showed the catcalling she experienced over a ten-hour period on the streets of New York . Speaking about the experience of making the video, Roberts told The Post 'I felt like crying and I have occurrences in my past of sexual assault, so I wasn’t even aware necessarily of all the times people were saying things to me. I was just going over in my head and reliving, unfortunately, these memories while I was walking. I wanted to break down in tears.' Emily May, executive director of Hollaback!, the anti-street harassment organization that put out the video, told The Washington Post 'It’s hitting a nerve. Certainly, people are coming out of the woodwork and saying some really offensive and misogynist things. 'We’ve had a number of rape threats and violent threats against Shoshana and we’re pulling those down as quickly as possible, but they exist. That’s scary and I think what they’re trying to do is scare her and scare us into not speaking out about this. And both of us are saying no, we need to talk about this because if we don’t talk about this, if we don’t get this story out, then none of this is going to change.' Hidden camera: The footage was captured by a camera Rob Bliss had in his backpack as he walked several feet of front of Roberts, who walked silently along . Bliss told The Post 'I’m getting some blowback, but not nearly as bad as Shoshana. Right now she’s getting a lot of threats and things like that and it’s just so sad. It’s like the video is now being echoed in real life.' At no point did Roberts make eye contact with any of the men she passed or talk to any of them. That didn't stop the comments from coming. When she didn't respond, one man told her, 'Somebody's acknowledging you for being beautiful. You should say thank you more!' Stalked: One man walked next to Roberts for five minutes as she walked through New York City . Another criticism was that some men's comments seemed innocuous: 'Good morning,' 'Have a nice day.' 'Some men could have been 'genuinely being nice,' Gerard Burke, a Brooklyn resident who readily acknowledged street harassment exists and has seen it happen to women in his family, told the AP. He said he thought the video shed light on a bigger problem, 'but some people just genuinely want to say hello.' That's the problem with street harassment, May told the wire service, because when there's a fear that a simple good morning could escalate into sexual comments or actions, there's a reluctance to engage at all.

The colour and shape of her eyes, colour and style of her hair, skin tone and whiteness of her teeth are all completely altered, quite literally changing her identity. You can see skin imperfections wiped away at the click of a mouse, and artificial flattering lighting creates the kind of radiant and highlighted skin that women spend thousands trying to achieve, not realising that what they are trying to emulate does not exist in reality. Shockingly the facial shape is also altered in the video and her right eye is artificially widened before a mirror image of it is created and pasted over her real left eye to create perfect symmetry in the face. The teeth are whitened and the lips made fuller and more pink using a program specifically designed to alter parts of the face . The computer program can totally change eye colour- allowing the programer to pick from a vast colour palette . Similarly, hair style, length and colour are all easily manipulable, as if creating a doll . Once flawless eye make-up has been digitally applied and the hair 'perfected', we are left with a woman who, while she looks stunning and conforms to our beauty ideals, bears little resemblance to the real artist. Boggie chose to reveal the extent to which celebrities are altered as the video for her song which criticises modern consumerism and urges women to be themselves. The song, which is sung in French, starts with a list of brands and designers such as Prada, Hugo Boss, Chanel, Giorgio Armani, and Lancome, before moving onto the refrain which states, ‘I am not a product.’ The chorus declares ‘Of beauty, preciousness; they cannot change me.

Under the new lighting, Boogie's hair colour is once again changed, scrolling through a range of colours until the perfect shade is found . As a final touch, Boogie's hair is swept to one side and digitally made to look much thicker . The video, which has exploded across the web since its release last week, is part of a trend attempting to lift the lid on the lack of reality in celebrity culture and advertising. In October, a 36-second clip, created by GlobalDemocracy.com, showing a relatively average-looking girl turned into a bombshell glamour model, went viral, adding fuel to the ongoing debate surrounding airbrushed models and how they can set unrealistic examples to impressionable young girls. A result of this is an increasing backlash against altering images, with American Eagle being the latest brand to release a totally un-airbrushed campaign for its new line of lingerie.

To assess the then unknown effects of low gravity and forces during launch on living things, Russian scientists made these high-pressure suits to help keep dogs safe during experiments in the 1950s. They were strapped into what might be considered today as a rather crude contraption, put into a rocket and fired 80km to the edge of space before returning to Earth by parachute. Like a giant boot: This space suit was among the first made for dogs for experiments on the effects of low gravity and high-speed launches on living things . To boldly go: This picture taken in 1959 shows a dog preparing for launch from a Soviet base in Central Asia . The lessons learned paved the way for Laika's mission in 1957, when she became the first animal to orbit the Earth, and subsequently the first journeys into space by humans a few years later. Unfortunately, only a few suits have remained intact over the years. One, a brown, lace-up suit complete with a dog's head-shaped helmet and breathing apparatus, is currently on display at the National Space Centre in Leicester. Speaking when it first arrived at the centre in 2010, Kevin Yates, the Space Communications Manager, told the Guardian: 'At the beginning of the space race, no-one knew how the human body would respond to being in low gravity, high altitude and the forces exerted during launch. Pioneering pooch: Laika, who became the first animal to orbit the Earth in 1957, with her handler . Final frontier: For years, it had been reported that Laika (pictured on board the Sputnik 2 satellite) survived for six days until her oxygen ran out, but in 2002 it emerged that she likely perished within hours after launch . 'So animals were used to test the . reactions to these. Most of the dogs did survive. There were only a . couple of accidents where dogs died.' Russian scientists chose dogs, most of them strays from the streets of Moscow, because they felt they were better able to sit still for long periods than primates. The U.S., on the other hand, preferred chimpanzees because of their similarity to humans. Being enclosed in these suits that effectively wrapped them up like a giant boot must have been terrifying, but Mr Yates said many of the dogs seemed quite happy after they had landed back on Earth. Canine cosmonaut: Malyshka, a Russian space dog, poses here in its snug-fitting space suit with a transparent space helmet beside it in 1957 . One giant leap for canine kind: Two Russian 'spacedogs' Veterok (left) and Ugoloik wearing their space suits shortly after they were in orbit for 22 days in 1966 . He said: 'I've seen original footage of the dogs being collected when they parachute back down and they seem very excited to see their owners.' Laika, a stray Russian dog, became the first animal to orbit the earth in November 1957 aboard the Sputnik 2 satellite, but died during the mission. It had for years been reported that she survived for six days until her oxygen ran out, but in 2002 it emerged that she likely perished from overheating within hours after launch.

Bloomberg, echoing comments made by the Israel Government, said the decision to impose a ban was a victory for the terrorists. Scroll down for video . Former New York mayor Mike Bloomberg is urging the Federal Aviation Administration to lift a ban imposed on Tuesday which is currently preventing U.S. airlines from flying to Israel . To re-enforce his point, he announced that he would fly on El Al to Tel Aviv on Tuesday night to ‘show solidarity with the Israeli people and to demonstrate that it is safe to fly in and out of Israel.' ‘Ben Gurion is the best protected airport in the world and El Al flights have been regularly flying in and out of it safely,’ said Bloomberg. ‘The flight restrictions are a mistake that hands Hamas an undeserved victory and should be lifted immediately. I strongly urge the FAA to reverse course and permit US airlines to fly to Israel.’ When U.S. and European airlines quickly canceled flights to Israel on Tuesday, they showed both a skittishness and a new sense of urgency in dealing with global trouble spots following last week's downing of a passenger plane over Ukraine. Delta Flight 468 from New York to Tel Aviv carrying 290 passengers and crew was rerouted to Paris yesterday . Israeli airline El Al has maintained its regular flight schedule while U.S. and European airlines quickly canceled flights to Israel on Tuesday . Delta Air Lines turned around one of its jets mid-flight and indefinitely canceled all future flights between the U.S. and Israel after a rocket fired from the Gaza Strip landed near Ben-Gurion Airport. Other U.S. airlines quickly took similar action, and counterparts in Europe and Canada followed within hours, despite protests from the Israeli government. Israeli airline El Al maintained its regular flight schedule. The airlines were out ahead of aviation regulators in stopping service. The Federal Aviation Administration imposed a 24-hour ban on flights to Israel after the U.S. airlines acted. Germany's Lufthansa, Italian airline Alitalia and Air France all acted before the European Aviation Safety Agency issued an advisory. How long the cessation of flights will last is unclear. U.S. airlines now must wait for the FAA, which said it will provide updated guidance by midday Wednesday. Aviation and legal experts said that airlines are now taking risk assessment into their own hands, both for the safety of passengers and to avoid claims of negligence, following last week's Malaysia Airlines disaster. Major airlines have moved quickly to cancel services to Israel’s main air hub – Ben Gurion International in Tel Aviv – in light of yesterday’s attack, with saw a rocket land a mile from the airport. The incident comes at a time of heightened tension within the air industry following last week’s downing of Malaysian Airlines flight MH17 over eastern Ukraine by an apparent missile strike. The latest information is as follows: . America’s Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issued a statement yesterday in response to the rocket attack, informing all American carriers that they are ‘prohibited from flying to or from Israel’s Ben Gurion International Airport for a period of up to 24 hours… in response to a rocket attack which landed approximately one mile’ from the airport. The ban will run until 12:15 EDT (Eastern Daylight Time) today – 5.15pm UK time – but may be extended for a further period. Delta re-routed yesterday’s Flight 468 – which had been due to land in Tel Aviv – to Paris. The airline has announced that it ‘has suspended service until further notice to and from Ben Gurion International Airport in Tel Aviv and its New York-JFK hub. Delta, in coordination with the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration, is doing so to ensure the safety and security of our customers and employees.’ British Airways is still operating to Ben Gurion International. Its two daily flights to Tel Aviv from London Heathrow are still on the schedule. Its 08:50 service took off late, and is currently en route. Its 22:30 service is still due to depart as listed. The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) says it ‘strongly recommends’ that airlines should avoid operating in and out of Tel Aviv. Easyjet has announced that it ‘is suspending its services to and from Tel Aviv for 24 hours, and, as a result, will not be operating Luton/Tel Aviv/Luton and Basel/Tel Aviv/Basel flights on Wednesday 23 July.’ Air France and KLM have suspended flights to Israel. A statement says that ‘Air France has decided to suspend flights to Tel Aviv until further notice. Air France's security department is closely monitoring local developments in real time. The safety of our passengers and our crews remains our top priority.’ Lufthansa, Germanwings and Austrian Airlines yesterday announced two-day suspensions of flights to Israel. Air Canada and Alitalia have cancelled flights to Israel. Passengers near an information board featuring numerous cancelled flights from Ben Gurion Airport, in Lod, Israel, on Tuesday . 'Most airlines have security departments that try to evaluate those sorts of risk,' said William Waldock, a professor of safety science at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. 'Some do it better than others, but I would expect that everyone is on a very heightened sense of alert right now.' Richard Aboulafia, an analyst with the Teal Group, said airlines might be more proactive about avoiding hot spots, although he noted that there are very few areas where non-government militaries have weapons sophisticated enough to shoot down a plane. The Israel government felt the airlines overreacted Tuesday. The Transportation Ministry called on the companies to reverse their decision, insisting Ben-Gurion Airport is safe and completely guarded and saying there is no reason to 'hand terror a prize,' by halting the flights. Palestinian militants have fired more than 2,000 rockets toward Israel, and several heading toward the area of the airport have been intercepted by Israel's Iron Dome defense system, but police spokeswoman Luba Samri said Tuesday's landing was the closest to the airport since fighting began on July 8.

Although he faces 10 years in prison and a £400,000 fine if found guilty of charges that include corruption and 'influence peddling', Sarkozy seemed happy to peddle his way across the picturesque coast of Southern France in his own private Tour de France. The 59-year-old could be seen with a friend cruising on his bike through the windy roads of Cap Negre, where temperatures today reached the early 20s. Nicolas Sarkozy was today photographed peddling his way through the streets of Cap Negre, Southern France . Clad in black lycra cycling shorts and a plain white T-shirt, he seemed happy to stop and chat along the way with locals. Sarkozy this week became the first ex-French president to be detained by police when he was questioned by investigators for 15 hours. And he has now accused investigators of ‘humiliating’ him after being charged with 'active corruption', 'influence peddling', and 'violating the professional secrecy of an active judicial enquiry'. He appeared on French television to say ‘the country of human rights and the rule of law (France)’ should not have to put up with left-wing judges who want to scupper his longed-for return to power. The Paris home Sarkozy shares with his wife was first raided by anti-corruption officers in 2012, within days of him losing that year’s presidential election to the Socialist Francois Hollande. There has been a steady stream of corruption allegations aimed at Sarkozy ever since, with Sarkozy’s lawyer, Thierry Herzog, and Azibert Gilbert, a judge implicated in the corruption case, also charged.

Sarkozy was the first ex-president in the history of modern France to be detained in custody by police . Sarkozy, who was president for five years from 2007, is suspected of having tried to pervert the course of justice through his contacts in the judiciary. He is said to have offered an attractive job in Monaco to Judge Azibert in return for inside information about the progress of the so-called Bettencourt affair. A photograph taken earlier in the week captured an unhappy looking Sarkozy travelling by car to be presented before a judge . This was a case in which Sarkozy was accused of accepting millions in illegal cash from Liliane Bettencourt, the l’Oreal heiress and France’s richest woman, towards his election campaign in 2007. Investigators also believe Sarkozy was illegally tipped off that his phone was being tapped as part of investigations into another matter, the so-called Gaddafi Affair. This is said to have involved Sarkozy receiving millions more from the late Colonel Gaddafi – the former Libyan leader. Sarkozy, who was immune from prosecution while in office, insists that he is innocent of any wrong-doing. Meanwhile, immediate family members have come to his aid with both his mother-in-law and son passionately defending him. However, his 46-year-old ex-supermodel wife has been noticeably absent, leading to speculation the couple are having problems in their relationship." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Former French president pictured out on cycle break in Southern France .\nCorruption and 'influence peddling' charges laid against him on Wednesday .\nPresident from 2007 to 2012 is accused of perverting the course of justice ." } ]

As yet, no-one has managed to replicate a flexible cloak as worn by the boy wizard, or the cloaking device used by the Kingons to make their ships invisible to another starship's sensors, but two Canadian scientists have created an invisibility cloak that they say is thin and adaptive to different types and sizes of objects. Unlike other recent cloaks that rely on planes of glass simply bending light in a way that renders small objects temporarily invisible, the researchers have taken an electrical engineering approach, which makes objects undetectable to radar. This is the set up of the lab where Professor George Eleftheriades and Michael Selvanayagam have designed and tested a new approach to cloaking - by surrounding an object with small antennas that collectively radiate an electromagnetic field. The radiated field cancels out any waves scattering off the cloaked object . They said as the technology advances, it could also be adapted to make things invisible to the human eye too. Professor George Eleftheriades and PhD student Michael Selvanayagam have designed and tested a new approach to cloaking, by surrounding an object with small antennas that collectively radiate an electromagnetic field. The radiated field cancels out any waves scattering off the cloaked object, rendering the object invisible to radar, explained the two researchers at the University of Toronto. ‘We've taken an electrical engineering approach, but that's what we are excited about,\" said Professor Eleftheriades. ‘It's very practical.’ When light hits an object, such as a postbox and bounces back into a person’s eyes, they can see it and similarly, when radio waves hit the object, they bounce back to a radar detector and reveal it is a postbox, in a certain location. The scientists’ system wraps the mailbox in a layer of tiny antennas that radiate a field away from the box, cancelling out any waves that would bounce back. In this way, the mailbox becomes undetectable to radar. Usually, when radio waves hit an object, they bounce back to a radar detector (illustrated) and reveal its location. The engineers surrounded an object with small antennas that collectively radiate an electromagnetic field, which cancels out any waves scattering off the cloaked object, rendering the object invisible to radar . While hiding post boxes might not have any immediate military applications, the technology could be used to create a next-generation devices to cloak vehicles. Professor Eleftheriades said he and Mr Selvanayagam have demonstrated a new way of cloaking objects. ‘It's very simple. Instead of surrounding what you're trying to cloak with a thick metamaterial shell, we surround it with one layer of tiny antennas, and this layer radiates back a field that cancels the reflections from the object.’ In their experiment, described in the journal Physical Review X, they effectively cloaked a metal cylinder from radio waves using one layer of loop antennas. The duo said their system can be scaled up to cloak larger objects using more loops, and the loops could become printed and flat, like a blanket or skin. Currently the antenna loops must be manually attuned to the electromagnetic frequency they need to cancel, but in future they could function both as sensors and active antennas, adjusting to different waves in real time, much like the technology behind noise-cancelling headphones. The ultimate camouflage? The engineers said their technology could be used to make military vehicles (pictured) undetectable to radar systems and the innovation could one day be applied to light, as well as radio waves, potentially making a tank invisible to the human eye . The pair began developing a functional invisibility cloak began around 2006, but their early systems were necessarily large and clunky –to cloak a car, an individual had to completely envelop the vehicle in many layers of metamaterials to ‘shield’ it from electromagnetic radiation. The size and inflexibility of the approach makes this technique impractical for real-world uses, while earlier attempts to craft thin cloaks were not adaptive and could only work for specific, small objects. Beyond obvious applications, such as hiding military vehicles or conducting surveillance operations, this cloaking technology could eliminate obstacles, such as structures interrupting signals from cellular base stations that could be cloaked to allow signals to pass by freely, the said. The system can also alter the signature of a cloaked object, making it appear bigger, smaller, or even shifting it in space.

Henry Davis, 52, had missed his turn off for the Missouri city of St. Charles during heavy rain late at night on September 20, 2009, pulling over about 20 miles away in Ferguson. While waiting for the rain to clear about 3am, a patrol officer ran Davis' plates and arrested him on an outstanding warrant - however it was the wrong Henry Davis. The wanted man had a different middle name and Social Security number, but Davis, a welder, said the officer cuffed him and put him into a patrol car without explanation, The Daily Beast reported. 'Excessive force': Henry Davis, 52, said in a lawsuit that he was arrested by Ferguson in September 2009 for no reason, severely beaten in lock-up and then charged with 'property damage' for bleeding on the uniforms of four officers . Davis had protested his innocence, and said the cops realized their mistake at Ferguson police station, recalling a booking officer saying: 'We have a problem.' But Davis was placed in a one-man cell, which already had one man asleep on the only single bed. Being early morning and cold, he asked for a sleeping mat from a nearby pile, but was refused. Some time later, Davis said in a lawsuit file thereafter, the booking officer returned to the cell with three other officers. He said he was slammed against the back wall by one of them and told to lay down with his hands behind his back. Davis was straddled by a female officer, he said, and cuffed. Two officers then entered the cell, he said. 'They started hitting me,' Davis later said in court, according to The Daily Beast. 'I was getting hit and I just covered up' The two left and the female officer returned, holding up Davis' head. The officer that initially slammed him against the wall returned and kicked him in the head. 'I almost passed out at that point ... Paramedics came,' Davis said. 'They said it was too much blood, I had to go to the hospital.' Davis was taken to hospital in a police vehicle, however he refused treatment, demanding a witness and photo proof of what had happened. Afterwards, still under arrest, he was taken back to the police station and held in a cell for several days. Davis was eventually charged with four counts of property damage - having allegedly bled on the uniforms of four officers - and released on $1,500 bail. Auhtorities: Ferguson Police Chief Tom Jackson is surrounded by his officers as he leaves a news conference in Forestwood Park on Friday, Aug. 15, 2014 .

Don't shoot: A crowd gathers near the scene where 18-year-old Michael Brown was fatally shot by police in Ferguson, Mo., near St. Louis on Saturday, Aug. 9, 2014 . Davis subsequently filed a civil suit, and at least two of the officers involved said in court they did not get blood on their uniforms. There was no video of the alleged police attack to support Davis' claims of brutality, because the security cameras were VHS at the time and had been recorded at 32 times the normal speed. A federal magistrate ruled that if the officers had committed perjury about the bloody uniforms, the charges were too minor to press ahead with. The magistrate also concluded that Davis' injuries were too minor to constitute excessive force. However a CAT scan taken after the incident confirmed he had suffered a concussion. The property charges were dropped and the lawsuit was closed. Davis' lawyer, James Schottel, is currently preparing an appeal, he told The Daily Beast. Schottel claims that perjury is perjury however minor, and that a concussion is now considered a serious injury. Schottel also believes that Davis' chances of appealing have now gone up on the back of the Michael Brown outrage and the increasing scrutiny of the police in Ferguson. Davis' case surfaced as as Missouri state senator Maria Chappelle-Nadal, a Democrat representing parts of St. Louis County in the state Senate, attacked Governor Jay Nixon, as well as other Democrats, for their lack of involvement in the aftermath of the Michael Brown shooting. 'There hasn't been a single white Democrat down here,' Chappelle-Nadal said Wednesday, according to The Washington Post. 'Mark my words, the Republicans might start showing up before they do.'

A 2-0 win at home to West Ham saw City finish two points clear of Liverpool as they completed a league and Capital One Cup double, but Pellegrini admitted the club’s ambitions were larger. ‘Big teams cannot be satisfied with just one title,’ said the City manager. ‘It is very important to celebrate today and tomorrow, and start on Tuesday working for next season. Then we will start thinking where we can improve. The bumps: Pellegrini is thrown in the air after Manchester City secured the Premier League title .

Maybe they were in a very difficult moment when I arrived here but they always believed what I told them.’ Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard, whose slip-up against Chelsea two weeks ago proved crucial in the title outcome, couldn’t hide his pain at missing out on a first Premier League triumph. ‘I’m devastated,’ he said, after Brendan Rodgers’ team had come from behind to beat Newcastle 2-1 at Anfield and finish second on 84 points. ‘I can’t sugar-coat this. I’m gutted for the fans but we can’t be too down. It was a fantastic season.

It’s over 38 games.’ Pellegrini becomes the first coach from outside Europe to win the Premier League title. His team set a record of 156 goals in all competitions, even though they fell one short of Chelsea’s best of 103 Premier League goals. ‘If I am the first one (non-European) to win it, that is a reason to be proud but I don’t think I’m the most important person,’ he said. ‘Maybe if we didn’t win the title it would be a very good reason to say it was my first season, but I did not want to give an excuse. We won with 102 goals, with the record of goals in all competitions and it is the way the team must play with our quality.’ Delight: Samir Nasri opened the scoring with a well hit shot past West Ham goalkeeper Adrian .

Pearson would never make an elementary mistake like that as James McArthur can testify. Leicester replied through Andrej Kramaric, with his first goal since signing last month, and produced the aggression and spirit which will make their manager proud, and offer some hope for the relegation scrap ahead.

They pushed for the equaliser, Kramaric missed a wonderful late chance and they probably deserved to take a point, but they left with none and remain rock bottom of the Barclays Premier League. Arsenal moved almost apologetically into the top four, for at a day at least, responding to defeat in the North London derby as Tottenham dropped points at Liverpool, but this made for uneasy viewing at times for Arsene Wenger. It was a seventh win in eight games since New Year's Day but not the first time this season his team has panicked at the first sign of trouble. They surrendered the lead at Spurs, not to mention Anderlecht and Liverpool. In fact, it has happened a little too often for a side with pretentions of challenging for major honours; a character flaw which remains despite the impressive win at Manchester City last month. There were added concerns with injuries to Alexis Sanchez, who returned after a hamstring injury but hurt his knee and was under-par until replaced, and Aaron Ramsey lasted only nine minutes before succumbing to a third hamstring strain of the campaign.

On a night when Hull and QPR won, there was some encouragement for Pearson and his chairman Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, who is thought to have sacked the manager on Sunday before a change of heart. The manager said he had lunch with the owners but didn't offer to pay and sat just behind the Thai owner in the first-half before moving down to the touchline for the second-half revival. Pearson said he had spoken to McArthur on the eve of the game and apologised after a text message from the Crystal Palace midfielder and received a warm post-match handshake and words of support from Wenger.

They are one of better teams we've played.' Leicester's performance will have offered great satisfaction - certainly more appealing than the Canadian folk band he endured on Sunday as speculation raged about his future at the club. Playing well and losing is not a good habit to be in but the players are working hard for him, none more than Riyad Mahrez, who was outstanding on the right wing and gave the Arsenal problems all game with his energy and direct style.

Unfortunately for Upson, he did not last the game and came soon after the break, although the manager claimed it was 'precautionary'. Wenger's team, however, were soon in control. Mark Schwarzer stood up to block with his chest from Walcott and Mesut Ozil danced through a crowded penalty box before forcing another save. Schwarzer tipped Ozil's effort wide and from the corner, taken by the German, Arsenal went ahead. Koscielny caught Wes Morgan napping and met the low, in-swinging set-piece on the half-volley, sweeping it inside the post from six yards. Before the break, Schwarzer was unable to hold a fierce drive by Ozil and parried the ball towards Walcott on the right, who adjusted superbly well to the rebound, arriving at pace to thump a first-time drive into the far corner.

Although not always in the thick of the action, he has made telling contributions in front of goal and his creative juices were flowing again. Arsenal looked capable of matching the five they put past Aston Villa in their previous home game but were forced back and wobbled under this pressure. Kramaric pulled one back as the home side claimed Esteban Cambiasso had handled as the ball was trapped under his body in a scramble following a corner they failed to clear, but no free-kick was given and the goal was fired through a crowd by the £9million Croatian, signed in January. Anxiety washed around the stadium and Wenger sent on substitutes and Pearson sent on the strikers he had left on the bench. Mahrez went close again and Kramaric was clean through and attempted to chip Ospina. It was an ambitious move – a bad decision - and he did not clear the goalkeeper. Pearson and his staff threw up their arms in collective dismay. It would be their last chance of the night.

She . and her husband purchased at auction a 15-foot model of a colorful . local diner as a playhouse for their not quite 1-year-old son . Macallister. It will be a while before he's old enough to play with structure, which they had lowered into their yard with a forklift. But that's okay for Mayer. 'Mayer seems to have bought it just as much for herself,' wrote Weisberg. Mayer also has 'happy art,' as she calls it--from the likes of such stars of the creative world as Jeff Koons and Roy Lichtenstein--throughout her home. And the walls of her dining room are lined with purple and gold signs that originally adorned tables at her wedding. They name some of her favorite things and range from the flavor 'peppermint,' to the paisley-loving Italian design house 'Etro.' But quirky isn’t the entire story, if judging just by her photo shoot. Thrifty: She's worth an estimated $300 million but according to Vogue she drives to and from work in an 18-year-old BMW .

And the same could be said for the accompanying photo for which she’s donned a form-fitting Michael Kors dress and daring Ives Saint Laurent heels. ‘I think she’s not as shy as she thinks she is,’ revealed Mayer’s investor husband Zachary Bogue. Still, some signs do suggest that one of America’s most talked about CEOs shuns glamor as much as she says. Though worth an estimated $300 million, Mayer shuttles herself to work in an eighteen year old BMW. And work, more than galas or photo shoots, appears to be where she is most comfortable. ‘One . night I looked up and was like, “Oh, my God, it's midnight and I have a . husband and I'm, like, eight months pregnant. I need to leave!,”’ joked . the new mom. ‘I was just here working, having the best possible time.’ The article, titled Hail to the Chief, is in the September issue of Vogue and hits national news stands August 20." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Silicon Valley's biggest style icon insists she's more concerned with her work than with the glamor ." } ]

The woman, known by the pseudonym Rehana, was celebrated as a symbol of hope for the embattled Syrian border town after a journalist tweeted a picture of her making a 'V-sign', claiming that she'd personally killed 100 Isis militants. The message was retweeted over 5,000 times, but there are now claims Rehana, who fought for the Kurdish YPJ, or Women's Defense Unit, may have been killed after gruesome pictures began circulating on Twitter of an Isis fighter purportedly holding aloft her head. Scroll down for video . A female Kurdish fighter who became a poster girl for the Kobane resistance movement after a picture of her making a peace sign was retweeted thousands of times on Twitter has reportedly been beheaded by Isis . Her death - reported on several sites including 9News.com - however, is unconfirmed and at the time of writing the YPG (People's Defense Unit) and YPJ have yet to respond to MailOnline's request for a comment. Perched on the other side of the Turkish border, the Syrian town of Kobane has been under an intense assault by Isis, or the so-called Islamic State, for more than a month. The town - surrounded on the east, south and west by Isis - is being defended by Kurdish forces in Syria. Among those fighters are thousands of women, an unusual phenomenon in the Muslim world in which warfare is often associated with manhood. In April, Kurdish fighters created all-female combat units that have grown to include more than 10,000 women. Isis launched a ferocious assault on Kobane in mid-September. Picture is an explosion from an allied air-strike on Sunday . Brave: Thousands of Kurdish women are fighting Isis in Syria . These female fighters have played a major role in battles against IS, said Nasser Haj Mansour, a defense official in Syria's Kurdish region. The Kurdish women now find themselves battling militants preaching an extreme form of Islam dictating that women only leave the house if absolutely necessary. One Kurdish female fighter, who uses the nom de guerre of Afshin Kobani, used to be a teacher. Now, the Kurdish Syrian woman has traded the classroom for the front lines in the battle for the town. A Kurdish Peshmerga female fighter takes up a position during combat skills training before being deployed to fight Isis militants . The 28-year-old Kurdish fighter said she decided to join the fight in her hometown when she saw Isis advances in Syria. 'I lost many friends to this, and I decided there was a need to join up,' said Kobani, who declined to reveal her birth name. 'This is our land - our own - and if we don't do it, who else will?' After more than a year of fighting, Kobani has risen through the ranks to become a commander of a mixed-gender unit. 'We are just the same as men; there's no difference,' she said. 'We can do any type of job, including armed mobilization.' There is nothing new about Kurdish women fighters. They have fought alongside men for years in a guerrilla war against Turkey, seeking an independent Kurdistan which would encompass parts of Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran. Earlier this month the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which monitors events in Syria, reported Isis militants beheaded nine Kurdish fighters, including three women . The campaign for Kurdish independence has been pursued mainly by leftist militant groups that championed gender equality, such as the Kurdistan Workers Party in Turkey. Suicide bombings have long been part of the Kurdish women fighters' battleground repertory. Early this month, Deilar Kanj Khamis, better known by her military name Arin Mirkan, blew herself up outside Kobani, killing 10 IS fighters, according to Kurdish forces. Haj Mansour, the Kurdish defense official, recounted that Kurdish fighters were forced to withdraw from a strategic hill south of the besieged town. Khamis stayed behind, attacking IS fighters with gunfire and grenades as they moved in. Surrounded, she detonated explosives strapped to her body. The Kurds then recaptured the position - but lost it again on Wednesday. Earlier this month the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which monitors events in Syria, reported Isis militants beheaded nine Kurdish fighters, including three women, captured in clashes near Turkish border." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Female Kurdish fighter whose picture became a web hit 'killed by Isis'\nImage of 'Rehana' making a peace sign was retweeted thousands of times .\nNow there are claims that she has been captured and beheaded by Isis .\nShe reportedly fought for the Kurdish Women's Defence Unit or YPJ .\nIt's thought she was involved in the defence of Syrian border town Kobane ." } ]

Central banks from around the world – including the Bank of England and China’s equivalent – yesterday launched a dramatic rescue bid worth hundreds of billions of dollars. It was agreed to head off a repeat of the 2008 crash when banks simply stopped lending to each other, bringing the world economy to a halt. President of the European Parliamtn Jerzy Buzek (left), European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso (centre) and European Council President Herman Van Rompuy (right) address a news conference in Brussels yesterday . The Bank of England has joined in the dramatic rescue bid to help prevent a repeat of 2008, when major banks simply stopped lending to each other . The operation, led by the U.S. Federal Reserve, came amid fears that at least one major European bank . may be teetering on the brink of collapse and that the eurozone . countries could not be trusted to act swiftly enough to solve their . problems. Bank of England sources said last night the money being made available . to struggling banks under the new facility was ‘unlimited’. But a . similar scheme during the last credit crunch peaked at $583billion . (£365billion) in late 2008. ICAP, the world's top broker for foreign exchange and government bonds, said on Monday that it has tested its trading system to handle the collapse of the eurozone and re-emergence of national currencies. Meanwhile, a senior banker at a large investment bank said he had a team of 20 people globally running all kinds of scenarios all the time. That team was now spending a lot of its time on the possible break-up of the euro. They had simulated a weekend crisis by running through the different stages of Friday night, Saturday and Sunday in one full working day. They had even looked whether they would have enough people available and made sure they knew where to reach them. 'It's my job to assume the worst. You can test all kinds of benign scenarios, but if something really bad - let's say a sudden overnight default of Italy - were to happen and we hadn't tested that, I wouldn't be doing my job properly. If that latter scenario were to occur, things would look very ugly indeed. 'There simply wouldn't be enough time to sort out all the various trading positions and look at all the paperwork,' the banker said. Stock markets around the world rallied in response to the ‘pre-emptive . strike’, with the FTSE 100 index closing up more than three per cent. However, the credit ratings agency Standard & Poor’s downgraded its . ratings on 15 global banks – including Barclays and HSBC – by one notch . yesterday. Last night John Higgins, . of the Capital Economics research consultancy, . said the central banks’ intervention would provide temporary relief for . Europe, but warned that it was ‘not a game changer’. He added: ‘Welcome . as the news was, we do not think it signals a turning point in the . crisis.’ The move was strikingly similar to action taken in the wake of the collapse of the U.S. investment bank Lehman Brothers in 2008, which sparked a global recession. In a bleak assessment, Number 10 said: ‘We are experiencing a credit crunch.’ World leaders are terrified that if banks stop lending to each other the supply of mortgages and loans to all businesses could dry up overnight, wrecking the already fragile economic recovery. In Brussels, one of the EU’s most senior officials warned there were now just ten days left to save the euro from collapse. And Chancellor George Osborne said the survival of the euro was essential if Britain was to avoid another recession next year. European banks have already been frozen out of credit markets because of uncertainty about the survival of the euro. The new deal agreed yesterday will give them ‘unlimited’ access to cheaper dollars. Next week EU leaders, including David Cameron, will gather for last-ditch talks to find a solution to the euro crisis, amid growing fears the single currency could collapse before Christmas. One government minister suggested last night Britain was prepared to wave through EU treaty changes if they were needed to underpin a rescue package for the euro. Government sources insisted the financial crisis ‘is not Lehman’s yet’. But Mr Osborne, who attended crisis talks in Brussels yesterday, admitted the Government’s already dire economic predictions would be ‘very much worse’ if the eurozone ‘went belly-up’. He said: ‘In a way, what’s happening in . the eurozone is a reminder to Britain that if you don’t face up to your . problems you have very much worse problems. Britain has taken decisive . action. We now need the eurozone to do the same.’ The Chancellor repeated his warning . that Britain would find it ‘difficult to avoid a recession’ next year if . Europe is dragged into a fresh downturn because of the crisis in the . single currency. Forecasts by the independent Office . for Budget Responsibility predict growth of just 0.7 per cent next year – . along with six more years of spending cuts – even if the euro crisis is . resolved. Mr Osborne suggested trade links between Britain and the EU . meant the break-up of the euro would have a massive impact on the UK. ‘That’s where Britain makes a lot of its money, so we are very affected by what happens in the eurozone,’ he said. Italy's Prime Minister and Finance Minister Mario Monti (left) talks with Dutch Finance Minister Jan Kees de Jager at a meeting of EU finance ministers in Brussels . Teetering: The break-up of the euro is looking increasingly likely . Last night it also emerged that the . Financial Services Authority has ordered Britain’s banks to step up . contingency plans for a ‘disorderly break-up of the euro’. Angela Merkel, pictured arriving at a cabinet meeting in Berlin yesterday, has reiterated her support for changes to European treaties . The watchdog confirmed that its chief . executive, Hector Sants, held talks with the bosses of all the major . banks, including Barclays, HSBC, Lloyds Banking Group, Royal Bank of . Scotland and Santander, about how they would cope with the exit of one . or more countries from the single currency. City sources said big insurance . companies were also urged to prepare for the exit of one or more . countries from the eurozone. It also emerged that Mr Osborne has held . talks on contingency plans for the collapse of the euro with Bank of . England governor Sir Mervyn King and FSA chairman Adair Turner in recent . weeks. A source at the FSA, denying there . was a sense of panic, said: ‘It would be more worrying if we were not . drawing up contingency plans.’ EU finance ministers gathering in . Brussels yesterday agreed to hand over the latest instalment of bailout . money to Greece, which will enable it to limp into the New Year. But they were no closer to agreeing a long-term deal to save the single currency. The EU’s monetary affairs commissioner, Olli Rehn, said: ‘We are now entering the critical period of ten days to complete and conclude the crisis response of the European Union.’ He suggested the eurozone might need further assistance from the International Monetary Fund. EU leaders will gather in Brussels at the end of next week for a two-day summit that will be dominated by the euro crisis. Employment minister Chris Grayling suggested yesterday that Britain was ready to agree EU treaty changes if they were needed for a rescue deal. Germany and France are pressing for treaty changes so stricter budget controls can be imposed on the 17 eurozone countries. Mr Grayling said: ‘There needs to be rapid progress towards dealing with the eurozone problems. 'If treaty change is the means to that end, then we would recognise that as a necessity.’ Europe is facing an ‘existential crisis’ that could end in violent revolution and war, the French foreign minister warned last night. In the bleakest assessment yet of the euro crisis, Alain Juppe, a former French prime minister, said the spiralling debt crisis could trigger ‘the explosion of the European Union itself’. Mr Juppe told the French news magazine L’Express that the deepening crisis was creating a dangerous breeding ground for violent nationalism, reminiscent of the 1930s. He said: ‘This is an existential crisis for Europe that raises the spectre of a return to violent conflict on our continent. ‘This could call into question all that we have created, not only in the 20 years since the Maastricht Treaty, but since the foundation of the European community. Warning: French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe said the crisis could cause revolution and war . ‘In that eventuality, everything becomes possible, even the worst. It could be the explosion of the European Union itself. ‘We have flattered ourselves for decades that we have eradicated the danger of conflict inside our continent, but let’s not be too sure. We’ve gone too far to not go further.’ Mr Juppe’s dire warning came just days after one of France’s leading economists said the single European currency only had a ‘50-50 chance’ of surviving until Christmas. Jacques Attali, the former president of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, said ‘instant and urgent’ action was needed to prevent the euro from collapsing within weeks. Last month the German Chancellor Angela Merkel also warned that failure to resolve the euro crisis was a potential threat to peace and stability in Europe. But despite numerous ‘crisis summits’ in recent months EU leaders have been unable to agree a package that will satisfy the financial markets they are serious about shoring up ailing countries like Greece, Portugal and Italy and saving the euro." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Just ten days left to save euro from collapse, warns senior EU official .\nOsborne says move vital if Britain is to avoid another recession next year .\nCameron to attend last-ditch talks next week ." } ]

Provide a succinct and relevant summary of the provided text." }, { "from": "human", "value": "The waiting game came to an end for Arsenal supporters at Wembley in May. Aaron Ramsey's extra-time goal saw the Gunners lift their first trophy since 2005. Thousands of supporters lined the streets of north London to hail Arsene Wenger's heroes 24 hours later during a triumphant open-top bus parade. There was a feeling of adulation on Upper Street that Sunday as fans celebrated the end of their much-hyped trophy drought, but there was another strong vibe in the air that day. Aaron Ramsey is mobbed by his Arsenal team-mates after scoring the winner against Hull in the FA Cup final . The streets of north London are lined by Arsenal fans as they celebrate their club's FA Cup triumph in 2014 . A sense that this was merely the beginning; the start of a period of dominance from another Wenger-led Arsenal team. But five months later, Gooners are again being asked to be patient. Everything is in place for a prosperous future at the Emirates Stadium. The club's self-sustainable financial structure is starting to have a significant impact in the new world of Financial Fair Play. But speaking ahead of Thursday's Annual General Meeting, chief executive Ivan Gazidis remained cautious. Speaking ahead of Arsenal's Annual General Meeting, Ivan Gazidis said the club are aiming to be held in the same esteem as Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern Munich and the rest of Europe's elite . 'Where we are currently is off the shoulder of the world's top teams. I think the best teams in the world are in Europe and you think about the great names in world football like Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern Munich - I don't think we're at that level yet but that's where we're aiming to get to,' said the Gunners supremo. 'It's one thing to say that and it's another thing to be able to deliver it. It has been incredibly frustrating not being able to be where we want to be these last few years, so winning the FA Cup was a fantastic moment. '(But) I don't come out of that feeling satisfied like we've achieved what we need to achieve. The hunger for success is immediate. The moment you get away from that euphoria of the moment, the next question is, \"How do we have more of that?\" Danny Welbeck and Alexis Sanchez arrived at Arsenal in the summer for a combined fee of £46million . 'That's what everybody at this club is focused on. There's no satisfaction in it - it's what do we do now.' When Gazidis' most recent comments were issued earlier this week, it must have felt like Groundhog Day for some fans; it's a message Arsenal supporters have become accustomed to in recent years. The message that the club are working hard to enter Europe's elite, but still not quite there. Recent big-money signings such as Mesut Ozil, Alexis Sanchez and Danny Welbeck have helped placate some disgruntled fans. But others remain doubtful that their club can replicate Wenger's glory years. Here, Sportsmail takes you on a trip down memory lane, looking at some of Gazidis' previous soundbites - and how they all have a similar theme: patience. Mesut Ozil joined the Gunners for a club record fee in the summer of 2013, but has failed to hit his top form . On the day Arsenal were due to meet Birmingham in the League Cup final - which they lost - Gazidis spoke of the sacrifices the club were making to ensure Arsenal's future success. FEBRUARY 2011: 'Some of the decisions we need to make looking forward will impact the manager adversely in the short term, but 10, 15 even 20 years from now, the decisions will make sure this club moves forward. 'Winning is important, but it's not the end objective of everything, the end objective is the emotional connection our fans have with this club. The end objective is the creation of pride, one of the aspects that creates pride is winning trophies and that's essential for a club our size, but the way we conduct ourselves, the way we play, all these things are important. 'It's right and proper that we are expected to win trophies regularly, and I welcome that pressure, that kind of pressure is good.' Arsenal were beaten by Birmingham in the 2011 League Cup final after Obafemi Martins scored the winner . In the aftermath of Arsenal's infamous 8-2 loss at Manchester United, Gazidis insisted the club would emerge stronger after a difficult few months which saw Cesc Fabregas, Samir Nasri and Gael Clichy quit the club. The belief that better days were ahead was a key theme. SEPTEMBER 2011: 'We are going through a difficult period like all clubs do, it's a cycle and we will work our way out of it. We understand some of the emotions the fans have been through, we understand the expectations are high and we share those expectations, that's where we are in the game - other clubs would be delighted to be in our overall position. 'We are in a healthy and strong position, we've had 14 years of success in the Champions League. When I came in two-and-a-half years ago I was told we were falling behind Aston Villa and Everton. The reality is we are in a strong position to look forward with confidence and standing on our own two feet, with a strong sustainable model built around youth development; we've got strong youth players coming through - not just Jack Wilshere. Arsene Wenger can't bring himself to watch the game as Arsenal are humiliated by Manchester United . The Old Trafford outfit ran out 8-2 winners against Arsenal. It was one of the club's worst-ever defeats . 'Our transfer strategy remains developing young players and turning them into star players, but we have sprinkled that with experienced players. It'll take a bit of time for those players to settle but we'll have a strong squad. You can't replace a Fabregas, one of the best players in the world and there's not an unlimited number of those. 'We are focused to continue to move forward as a club. If we spent every single penny we had in every transfer window, we would end up making some bad decisions.' Ahead of the 2012 season, Gazidis again spoke about the club's ability to compete with Europe's elite clubs… in the future, of course. JUNE 2012: 'We want to win major competitions. We want to win the Premier League. We want to compete to win the Champions League. That is our ambition. 'My message to our fans is that we are doing everything in our power to make sure that Arsenal can challenge for trophies next year. That is what this summer is about and that is what we are focused on for next year. 'We have a good team, we have a good young core of players and we need everybody involved to have belief so that we can push forward into next year and make a run at the Premier League trophy and for the Champions League. We believe we can do that.' Gazidis has spoken about Arsenal's ability to compete with some of Europe's best clubs, albeit in the future . And there was more of the same from Gazidis five months later. NOVEMBER 2012: 'As we look to the next two, three years we will have an outstanding platform on which to compete with any club in the world. Now we are in that stadium, the first part of our vision has been realised. Now we are at the stage where some of the commercial deals that were tied into the construction of the stadium, and enabled us to take that first big step, will be renegotiated. When that happens, we will take the second big step forward and that will be comparable in magnitude to moving to the stadium itself. 'At times it's been a challenging project, but we will have catapulted ourselves into the elite clubs on the European scale and that, for us, has been what the last 10 years has been about. 'Very clearly, it will push the club forward and put us into the top five clubs in the world in revenue terms, which will be a fantastic position to be in.' The Arsenal board addresses its audience at the 2011 Annual General Meeting at the Emirates Stadium . Still without a trophy, Gazidis returned with a familiar message at the end of the 2012/13 season. JUNE 2013: 'So obviously we have come to the end of the season and in the end we finished with 73 points and in fourth place which I would say was necessary for us. We want to be competing at the top of the game and in order to do that you have to be in the Champions League. So we are pleased to have qualified, or at least, for the qualification games. 'But it is not ultimately where we want to be with moving the club forward. We want to be a club that is competing at the very top end of the game and that means competing to win the Premier League and competing to win the Champions League. On that basis, we are not where we want to be yet. 'I think its not idle ambition when we talk about wanting to get there. I think we have a very solid plan that will give us the ability to be able to compete at that level provided we do things well. The critical thing now as we look ahead over the next season and the season after is our developing financial capability which will give us a lot more options than in recent years.' We wait with baited breath to see what Gazidis plans to say at Thursday's AGM. More of the same, perhaps? Jack Wilshere reflects on Arsenal's defeat at Chelsea - they are already nine points behind their rivals ." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Arsenal to hold their Annual General Meeting later on Thursday .\nSpeaking earlier this week, chief executive Ivan Gazidis remained cautious .\nHe wants club to reach level of Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Barcelona .\nArsenal won first trophy in nine years after beating Hull in FA Cup final ." } ]

Each week our man in Brazil, Joe Callaghan, brings us the latest news and views from South America - as well as traveller tips for those heading out there - and provides a flavour of exactly how the World Cup in Brazil is shaping up. If Zico's so worried, shouldn't England be a little bit concerned too? With all the focus on the World Cup opener against top seeds Italy in the Amazon a month from today, Uruguay are in danger of flying a little under Roy Hodgson's radar. Not Zico's though. We told you last week how the greatest never to win a World Cup insisted the one team he didn't want Brazil to meet in the knock-out stages was none other than England's second opponents next month. 'I would prefer to meet Argentina in the final. Not Uruguay,' he said. 'I think Uruguay could be the only team who could psychologically shake the Brazilian team.' VIDEO Scroll down to view inside the Arena Amazonia stadium and see England's training camp . Dangerous: Luis Suarez is expected to cause England problems in the Group D World Cup match in Brazil . Geographically, Uruguay sits beneath Brazil and citizens here like to think of their neighbours that way. But in the Brazilian sporting lexicon Uruguay is a dirty word. It might come as a surprise to some that no matter what way the tournament progresses, the hosts cannot play at the Maracana until the final. Wouldn't the sacred, spiritual home have been a helpful, inspirational staging point come the last 16 or quarter-finals? Not in a World Cup it wouldn't. The place is the graveyard of World Cup dreams here and the Maracanazo, when Brazil needing only a draw to win the 1950 cup on home soil imploded and handed glory to their noisy neighbours, still send shivers down spines in Rio de Janeiro. Hodgson might just have felt a slight chill over the past 48 hours too when he saw the 25-man squad assembled by his counterpart Oscar Tabarez. High on talent, high on tenure, high on terrifying attackers, it's a big tournament calibre squad from a country that just loves big tournaments. Fearful: Brazil legend Zico believes that Uruguay are the team best equipped to cause the hosts problems . Winners of two of the four previous World Cups to be played in their home continent, Uruguay have also been losing semi-finalists another three times. All in all, not too shabby a record for a country with an almost identical population to Wales. Hodgson's embraced the movement for change and called upon his young lions, but experience counts too. Uruguay have just three players with 10 caps or less in their panel and could have just one by the time the final squad cut is made. England on the other hand, will bring nine such inexperienced men to Brazil. Of course there are question marks, no country is immune from those. A lot of those centre on the skipper Diego Lugano, who endured a horror campaign in the Premier League with West Brom. But he has always been a different beast with the national team's armband strapped on. And around him, Benfica's Maxi Perreira, Atletico Madrid's Diego Godin and Martin Caceres of Juventus could join camp with league winners medals from three different countries. Goal getter: Uruguay's Edinson Cavani has proven himself to be a reliable frontman at the top level . Midfield is full of competition with three insiders based here in Brazil - Nicolas Lodeiro, Sebastien Eguren and Alvaro Pareira - joining Atletico's Cristian Rodriguez and a host of other European-based veterans and a couple of younger faces, among them Southampton's Gaston Ramirez. It is up front though where the chills really begin to kick in. The triumvirate of Luis Suarez, Edinson Cavani and Diego Forlan might not match Argentina's trio of Messi, Higuain and Aguero as the tournament's most ferocious front three. But they're a close runner-up. Between them they have scored 94 international goals. England's entire 23-man squad have scored just 15 more. For now, all roads may lead to Manaus but the trajectory will quickly shift to Sao Paulo and what will be the defining match of England's campaign. Uruguay may have been the last team to book their ticket to Brazil but it would be foolish to expect them to be the first going home. Even if it would make the hosts breathe a whole lot easier. Lots to think about: England's players face two tough group games against Italy and Uruguay in Brazil . The countdown clock has hit the 20s and still Brazil scrambles to welcome the world. Incredible though it may seem four weeks out from the kick-off, but three stadiums still remain unfinished. The venue for the opening ceremony will mercifully host its first proper match this weekend when Corinthians make their debut in their new home. Because they simply have to be, all arenas will be completed. But a report in yesterday's Sao Paulo newspaper Folha, laid bare just how little else will be ready. Of the public transport upgrades and projects promised when Brazil won the staging rights, an eye-wateringly low 10 per cent have been delivered. Fortaleza's airport might just be the most prime of all examples. The city which had the first stadium over the line, inexplicably none of the other 11 projects promised in Fortaleza are finished. And instead of a shiny new terminal to welcome the hundreds of thousands of fans pitching up for a whopping six games in the city, visitors will instead be herded through a temporary canvas structure. If you're thinking something along the lines of the opening credits of M.A.S.H. you're not alone. It's unlikely to be nearly as funny though. It's a crying shame. Way behind schedule: Construction workers frantically try to finish off the Arena de Sao Paulo Stadium on time . Not only did he welcome new plus one Gabriella Lenzi to Barcelona this week for a flying visit during which she hit the town with the WAGs but he might just feature in this weekend's title decider against Atletico Madrid. Expected not to play a competitive game again until the World Cup after picking up a foot injury last month, Brazil's talisman is ahead of schedule. 'I am in the home straight in terms of recovery and I’ll see if I am able to play (against Atletico),' he confirmed on Monday. And the nation breathes a sigh of relief. Introductions: Neymar's girlfriend Gabriella Lenzi joined the Brazil superstar briefly in Barcelona . The Brazilian championship is a full four rounds old. But that's more than enough time for the most trigger-happy league in the world to start catching up with the Premier League in the sack race. This Fred goal from a couple of inches out helped Fluminense to a 2-0 victory over arch rivals Flamengo in the Rio derby on Sunday. It led to Flamengo sacking Jayme de Almeida, who in the process became the sixth manager shown the door in the top tier already this season. Sixth...in less than a month. Makes England's top flight look like a pleasant place to work . Remember me? Diego Cavalieri (Fluminese and Brazil) The rejection felt by Liverpool duo Philippe Coutinho and Lucas last week as Big Phil ignored the merits of both when picking his final squad was also shared by a former Red. Diego Cavalieri once cost Liverpool £3million when he joined from Palmeiras in 2008. But after just two seasons at Anfield during which he never once featured in the league, in spite of a couple of impressive cup cameos, he was allowed to leave by Roy Hodgson. Back home with Fluminense he rediscovered his form and was part of the Confederations Cup-winning Brazil panel last summer. But he was the odd man out last week as Julio Cesar, Jefferson and Victor were picked for World Cup duty. That's kind of in keeping with how things have been going for everyone linked with Liverpool of late. Old face: Diego Cavalieri, formerly of Liverpool, narrowly missed out on the Brazil squad after a run of good form . Scurge: Mosquitos will be feasting on the many World Cup visitors .

Delevingne and Moss's doppelgangers Harley Chapman, 10 and Maya Koski-Wood 12, both capture the essence of model predecessors from their 2014 black and white Mario Testino imagery for the My Burberry perfume campaign. Scroll down for video . Harley Chapman, 10 and Maya Koski-Wood 12 have helped to recreate Cara Delevingne and Kate Moss' iconic My Burberry campaign imagery as part of a series of photos recreating iconic fashion photography . Twiggy's influential 1962 black and white image of her legs crossed has also been recreated by 10-year-old model Edie Barfoot-Eva to commemorate fashion throughout the ages. The image features Twiggy's cropped-like hairstyle and heavy eye make-up to emulate the style of the era.

Chancellor George Osborne said the Treasury had ‘stepped up’ contingency planning and aimed to be ready for ‘whatever the Eurozone throws at us’. It emerged yesterday that the International Monetary Fund, in which Britain is a major shareholder, could be forced to offer Italy a €600 billion (£514bn) rescue package to give its unelected new prime minister Mario Monti 12 to 18 months’ breathing room to implement big tax rises and spending cuts. Chancellor George Osborne, left, has ‘stepped up’ contingency planning while unelected Italian prime minister Mario Monti, right, could be given breathing room to implement big tax rises and spending cuts . And in another move, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy were revealed to be plotting a new pact on economic union without consulting Britain or other countries outside of the EU. They are determined not to give Britain the chance of insisting on powers being handed back from Brussels by negotiating a major new EU treaty. Germany's original plan was to try to secure agreement among all 27 EU countries for a limited change to the Lisbon Treaty by the end of 2012, making it possible to impose much tighter budget controls over the 17-member Eurozone. Countries will be forced to submit their budgets for EU approval before they go to national parliaments, will have to sign up to strict new rules on the size of debts and deficits and will be sued for any breach in the European Court of Justice. Plot: German Chancellor Angela Merkel, left, and French President Nicolas Sarkozy, right, are plotting a new pact on economic union without consulting Britain or other countries outside of the EU . The Franco-German plan will effectively mean an end to national sovereignty over budgets for countries remaining in the euro. Source said it had become clear to Mrs Merkel and Mr Sarkozy in recent weeks that it appears impossible to get all 27 EU countries on board for the plan. It could take years to secure the necessary changes, while a rapid loss of market faith in Italy, Spain and even France suggests urgent measures are required within weeks. EU sources said French and German civil servants have been exploring other ways of achieving the goal, either via an agreement among just the Eurozone countries. Alternatively, they could strike a separate agreement outside the EU treaty that could involve a core of around just eight to ten Eurozone countries, officials say. The move will infuriate British Eurosceptics, who have been urging David Cameron to insist on a repatriation of powers for the UK from Brussels in exchange for agreeing to let the Eurozone countries move towards fiscal and political union. In a sign of the deepening turmoil in the Eurozone, IMF officials were quoted by the Italian newspaper La Stampa as saying a bailout would be needed to give the country a window of 12 to 18 months to implement urgent budget cuts and growth-boosting reforms. The IMF would guarantee rates of 4.0 per cent or 5.0 perc ent on the loan -- far better than the borrowing costs on commercial debt markets, where the rate on two-year and five-year Italian government bonds has risen above 7.0 per cent. The size of the loan would make it difficult for the IMF to use its current resources so different options are being explored, including possible joint action with the European Central Bank in which the IMF would act as guarantor. As a major shareholder in the IMF, billions of pounds of British cash would be put on the line under any deal, though it is not clear how much. Italy’s vast £1.6 trillion national debt and its low growth rate have caused deepening alarm on the international markets in recent weeks, and even a Brussels-inspired ‘coup’ which saw Silvio Berlusconi removed and a government without a single elected politician in it installed failed to stop the rot. Mr Osborne confirmed yesterday that Britain is preparing for a break-up of the Eurozone that would have cataclysmic effects for the British economy. ‘Well, of course countries like Germany and France have now openly asked the question whether countries like Greece can stay in the Euro. It is a very, very difficult and dangerous situation,’ the Chancellor said. ‘It is having a hugely chilling effect on the British economy at the moment. We have contingency plans for all situations. We have obviously stepped up that contingency planning in recent months. You would expect us to do that as the British government. But that doesn’t mean we are predicting any particular outcome. ‘We’re just ready for whatever the world, whatever the Eurozone throws at us. Adisorderly collapse of the Eurozone would have a massive impact on the UK. I mean, for example, one in seven pounds we export goes to Ireland, Italy, Portugal, Spain and Greece - just those countries. ‘So in other words, it’s a very important part of our economic strategy that we get the Eurozone moving as well.’" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rescue package to give Mario Monti 12 to 18 months' breathing room to implement spending cuts ." } ]

Provide a succinct and relevant summary of the provided text." }, { "from": "human", "value": "When Roberto Di Matteo named his team at Turin’s luxurious Golden Palace Hotel on Tuesday lunchtime, it was a final act of defiance. Monday morning... Abramovich prepared to wield axe if results don't improve . Tuesday night... Guardiola and Benitez in frame to replace Di Matteo . Fernando Torres paid for his pitiful performance at West Bromwich on Saturday and Di Matteo knew the evening would end in yet another change in personnel. On this occasion, in the office of the Chelsea manager. But Di Matteo sensed the end was coming long before his 42nd and last game in charge. As early as last summer, when he dared question the strength of Torres’ ambition at Chelsea, the European Cup-winning coach was left in no doubt about who is actually in charge at Stamford Bridge. The beginning of a remarkable journey: Roberto Di Matteo clutches Branislav Ivanovic and Fernando Torres after seeing off the challenge of Napoli in last year's Champions League . He told you so: How Neil Ashton broke the story in Wednesday's Sportsmail . When he was finally appointed ‘manager and first-team coach’, 25 days after landing club football’s greatest prize in Munich’s Allianz Arena, Di Matteo presented Roman Abramovich with a list of summer transfer targets. Radamel Falcao, the free-scoring striker with 36 goals in 50 appearances for Atletico Madrid in his first season in Spain, was at the top of it. But before Chelsea’s manager could even make a case for the Colombian striker he was cut short. Abramovich told him he already had a world-class finisher and the message was clear: Torres was to play. It was a message that was repeated on an almost daily basis. That was life at Chelsea for Di Matteo, operating under almost intolerable conditions long before he axed Torres ahead of the shocking 3-0 defeat against Juventus. He knew he had to select Torres. It was the owner’s wish. But he also knew there were problems using Torres when the players Abramovich had brought in did not suit the Spaniard’s style of play. A round peg in a square hole: Torres is said to be unhappy and Chelsea and his attributes do not suit the club's style of play . Di Matteo had run the analysis on Torres, asking the club’s technical team for a breakdown of the 81 goals he scored for Liverpool before his move south to London. When Di Matteo went through the detail, a worrying pattern emerged that convinced him Chelsea did not have the personnel to accommodate his game. Were Chelsea right to sack Roberto Di Matteo? Were Chelsea right to sack Roberto Di Matteo? Now share your opinion . At Anfield, 56 of his goals (69 per cent) were engineered by defence-splitting passes, usually from Steven Gerrard or Xabi Alonso. At Chelsea, players like Juan Mata, Frank Lampard, Ramires and John Mikel Obi — together with new arrivals Oscar and Eden Hazard – preferred to pass their way through the opposition. They did not spring opposition defences and Di Matteo was already beginning to doubt whether Torres was committed to the Chelsea project. Di Matteo’s relationship with technical director Michael Emenalo was already strained, but it was stretched to the limit by the pressure to get Torres among the goalscorers. Some sympathised, but others were openly questioning the motivation of a striker who was once regarded as the best finisher in world football. Over bar the shouting: Di Matteo patrols the touchline at the Juventus Stadium, aware that his time at Chelsea is up . Upstairs in his office at the club’s Cobham training centre and puffing on cigarettes out on the balcony, Di Matteo frequently discussed Torres’ form with assistants Eddie Newton and Steve Holland. It hardly helped that the £50million striker had confided in team-mates that he was unhappy at the club, even saying as much to a Spanish journalist on the night Chelsea lifted the European Cup. But a new season amounted to a new start for Di Matteo and Abramovich was quick to apply the same approval index rating he uses to judge every manager — Champions League progress. The day after Chelsea drew 2-2 with Juventus in the opening fixture in Group E, when goals from Arturo Vidal and Fabio Quagliarella secured a point for the Italians, Abramovich arrived unannounced at the training ground. He asked Di Matteo, his coaching staff and some of the players if they still had the desire for another crack at the competition after last season’s incredible triumph. By 3am on Wednesday, Di Matteo was clearing the decks of his spacious office after being sacked at the training ground by chairman Bruce Buck and chief executive Ron Gourlay, just over an hour after they arrived back from defeat in Turin. The man of the moment: Six months ago, Di Matteo steered Chelsea to their first European Cup . He knew it was coming, saying farewell and shaking hands with the players in the dressing room at the Juventus Stadium. £86m: Chelsea have spent approximately £86million since 2004 in compensation for managers — more than Everton’s entire net spend since the Premier League began. 8 months: The average life span for a manager under Abramovich. Only Mourinho and Ancelotti lasted more than a year. 9: Abramovich has now had as many managers in his nine-year reign as United have had since 1937. 7: Chelsea have sacked seven managers since 2005 and won seven trophies. These were private moments and a significant number of the team apologised to Di Matteo for failing to recreate the spirit that led to FA Cup and European glory last season. Three days earlier, in the dressing room at The Hawthorns, the fingers had been pointed by the players in a post-match inquest following the 2-1 defeat. It sounded explosive. Holland, the assistant manager, had arrived at the ground with a black eye and a cut underneath his left cheek. After the fireworks that followed the final whistle, it is a wonder there were no further casualties. Chelsea’s season was beginning to fall apart and the situation was irretrievable even then. Abramovich had to be talked out of firing Di Matteo on Saturday by his close circle of advisors, but the Champions League clash with Juve was the tipping point. On Sunday the players came in for a warm-down at Cobham and flew on a delayed flight to Turin on Monday after Di Matteo held a short meeting with coaching staff. The impossible job: Di Matteo takes charge of his final Chelsea training session in Turin . In Turin, Chelsea’s players picked up on Di Matteo’s distress and it transmitted to the squad in a subdued and sometimes directionless training session at Juve’s stadium on Monday evening. They knew he was about to make a tactical switch, but the message was muddled and there was uncertainty among the players as they chatted in hushed tones over dinner in the team hotel. In the team meeting at lunchtime on Tuesday, when Di Matteo announced that Hazard would play up front instead of Torres, this was met with the tacit approval of many of the players. On the field they failed spectacularly, however, and Di Matteo, who spent 45 minutes talking to his Italian advisor in the tunnel after the defeat, knew the game was up. As they all got on the airport bus which delivered them to their Titan Airways flight — which finally took off at 1.45am from northern Italy — the atmosphere was tense. By that point Di Matteo and Newton, both in sharp, grey suits, were hanging on for grim life as the bus, with Buck and Gourlay in attendance, made the short trip to the aircraft steps. Ruthless: Roman Abramovich wielded the axe for the seventh time since 2005 . Ashley Cole giggled a couple of times. Petr Cech, a decent guy, made small talk with the kit men. Torres, who was reading a book entitled Leyenda (Legend) on the trip out to Turin, fiddled with his phone. Di Matteo knew that his number was up, unable to motivate a striker who has scored just four goals in the Barclays Premier League this season. Even Torres’ solitary Champions League strike was a fluke, a ricochet that somehow rebounded into the net of Andriy Pyatov in the 3-2 victory over Shakhtar Donetsk on November 7. Undoubtedly Di Matteo under-estimated the owner’s obsession with winning silverware. Abramovich has not forgotten Jose Mourinho gesturing to him at Wembley, counting the trophies with his fingers when Chelsea won the FA Cup in 2007. Chelsea started this season with a chance to win seven trophies, but the champions of Europe had already surrendered the Community Shield against Manchester City and were soundly beaten by Atletico Madrid in the Super Cup in Monaco. Abramovich, who rarely travels to away games because he does not like to conform to stuffy boardroom etiquette by wearing a suit, became increasingly agitated as Di Matteo’s summer target finished them off with a hat-trick. Falcao was fantastic that night. Golden boot: Radamel Falcao was in sensational form as the Atletico Madrid striker hit a hat-trick in Monaco . Di Matteo’s team were also adjusting to a refined playing system as they encouraged Cech to throw the ball out to his back four instead of launching it forward from his penalty area. Off the field Di Matteo skilfully and diplomatically handled delicate situations, especially after John Terry was banned by the FA for four games and fined £220,000 for racially insulting Anton Ferdinand. The incident did not even happen on Di Matteo’s watch — Andre Villas-Boas was manager at the time — but the Italian attempted to protect the reputation of the club. Even last Sunday, his preparations for the trip to Turin were disrupted when Ashley Cole was unexpectedly called to an interview with the FA over the allegations against referee Mark Clattenburg. Suddenly the FA’s compliance team were swarming all over the training ground again, taking Mikel, Ramires and Juan Mata into neutralised zones for hours of taped interviews. Casting a shadow: Di Matteo felt the race row, involving referee Mark Clattenburg (centre) and John Mikel Obi (right) had an impact on recent results . Di Matteo has deep reservations about Chelsea’s complaint, and, naturally, believes that it has affected their recent results. They made the allegation two hours after they were beaten 3-2 at Stamford Bridge by Manchester United, finishing the game with nine men after the dismissals of Torres and Branislav Ivanovic. Since then they have picked up two points from the last 12 in the Premier League and require something of a miracle to avoid the humiliation of exiting the group stage of the Champions League. That brutal reality dawned on Di Matteo when Chelsea arrived back at the training ground in the dead of night after the Turin trip. Torres was one of the first off the bus, jumping straight into his car and slipping on his tracksuit top to beat the near-freezing temperatures. By then, Di Matteo knew it was time to get his coat." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Suffocated by Abramovich's diktat on always playing Torres .\nWrestling to control a volatile and powerful dressing room .\nConstantly distracted by the racism dispute with Clattenburg ." } ]
