Two Turkish pilots are still missing after their air force jet was downed by Syrian forces in an act which has escalated tensions between the neighbouring countries. Syria said it shot down the F4 phantom jet because it was flying 'over Syrian territorial waters'. Missing: An F4 Phantom Turkish fighter jet was shot down by Syrian security forces yesterday over 'Syrian territorial waters' Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan today led a two-hour security meeting on the crisis. In a statement issued after the meeting, the government said it 'will determinedly take necessary steps' in response, without saying what they would be. It comes after the Syrian military confirmed it had brought down the plane over the eastern part of the sea, southwest of the Turkish province of Hatay, which borders Syria. 'Our air defences confronted a target . that penetrated our air space over our territorial waters pre-afternoon . on Friday and shot it down,' a statement by the military circulated on state media said. 'It turned out to be a Turkish military . plane.' The incident threatens to worsen relations between the two countries, which have already become strained in recent months. Turkey has joined nations such as the US in saying that Syrian President Bashar Assad should step down because of the uprising in his country. Turkey also has set up refugee camps on its border for more than 32,000 Syrians who have fled the fighting. Erdogan confirmed that the plane went down some eight miles (13km) from the Syrian town of Latakia over the Mediterranean Sea. He said: 'Four of our gunboats and some Syrian gunboats are carrying out a joint search there.' A search and rescue operation was launched and Turkey's government has called an emergency security meeting. The jet had taken off from Erhac . airport in the eastern province of Malatya shortly before all contact . with the aircraft was lost. Turkey's military confirmed it lost contact with the aircraft over the sea close to the border . with Syria. Lebanon's Hezbollah-owned Al-Manar . television station claimed that Syrian security forces were . responsible after a source told the TV channel that Syrian air defences . shot down the Turkish military aircraft. Unclear: Turkey's Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said there has been no confirmation of what happened to the two pilots . The station reported: 'Syrian . security sources confirmed to a Manar correspondent in Damascus that . Syrian defence forces shot down the Turkish fighter jet.' it's alleged the plane strayed one kilometre into Syrian airspace. Ilter Turan, a professor of political science at Istanbul's Bilgi University, told NTV that Syria's action was clearly 'hostile,' even if it violated its air space. 'They could have either sent their planes to confront it or force it to land, it is a hostile act by any standard,' Turan said. Turan, however, predicted that Syria will try to avoid escalating tensions further . This latest incident could further . threaten relations between the two countries already at bitter odds over . a 16-month-old revolt against Assad. Syria and Turkey have expelled each other's ambassadors and Syria has accused Turkey of supporting Syrian opposition and even allowing Syrian rebels to operate out of Turkish soil. Turkey strongly denies the allegations. After a cross-border shooting by Syrian forces in April, Turkey said it would not tolerate any action that it deemed violating its security. The firing had left two refugees dead at a camp near the town of Kilis just inside Turkey. Foreign Ministry Spokesman Selcuk Unal earlier on Friday rejected allegations that Turkey was sending arms and other equipment to Syrian rebels as baseless. Unal said Turkey was not sending weapons to any of its neighbors, including Syria. Turkey's military provided no details on the downed plane's mission Friday, but some Turkish TV reports said it was on a reconnaissance flight. Violence raged unabated in Syria yesterday, as the nation appears to be sliding toward a sectarian-tinged civil war pitting majority Sunni Muslims against Assad’s minority Alawite sect. Defection: The host of top Syrian army officials have turned up in Turkey . Left: The F4 Phantom jet had taken off from Erhac airport in the eastern province of Malatya shortly before all contact with the aircraft was lost last week (file picture) Four high-placed Syrian military . officials – two brigadier-generals and two colonels who are all brothers . – announced their defection from the army yesterday. The Turkish lira fell sharply . following news of the jet incident and analysts said it would be . vulnerable to further losses as more details of the incident emerged. 'The lira eased after reports saying . the Turkish jet was shot down by Syrian air forces. If this is . confirmed, we can see more of a sell-off in the lira,' said Suha Yaygin, . an emerging markets trader at TD Securities. The lira fell to 1.8151 to the dollar after the news report, from around 1.8075 beforehand.

In some, a majority of participants at events in highly public places such as New York City's Grand Central Terminal, the White House or busy city intersections, are glued to their touchscreens. The die-ins are designed to raise awareness and express outrage at the cases of Michael Brown, who was shot dead in Ferguson, Missouri, by officer Darren Wilson in August. In November a grand jury declined to indict the officer, a decision which prompted a tide of outrage from civil rights activists, who made calls for legal reform. Eric Garner, a man killed on Staten Island, New York, by the NYPD, who put him in a choke-hold this summer, has also been incorporated in many of the protests.

Spotted: Two protesters on the ground can be seen bathed in the light of their devices, with the Washington Monument in the background . A grand jury decided Wednesday that no charges would be brought in relation to his death as well. The object of a die-in is to imitate a dead body, usually to raise awareness of people who have been killed.

Army Captain Mark Gold, 43, was enjoying a Sunday stroll along the River Taff in Cardiff with his family when he saw Leanne Ware, 31, allegedly being drowned in the river. Ms Ware's boyfriend Martin Edwards, 43, and his friend Gary Pincott, 55, both deny attempted murder. Rescue mission: Capt Gold (right) performed CPR on Leanne Ware (left) after pulling her from the water . Accused: Miss Ware's boyfriend Martin Edwards, 43, (pictured) denies charges of attempted murder and assault at Cardiff Crown Court . Capt Gold told Cardiff Crown Court . that he had sprung into action after seeing Edwards and Pincott beat . Miss Ware, before rolling her body into the river. The . soldier from the Army Medical Corps then ran into the water to fight . off the alleged attackers, and performed life-saving CPR on Miss Ware . after hauling her from the river. Giving . evidence in the trial of Edwards and Pincott, Capt Gold said he had . been walking along the river bank with his family when he saw two men . attack Ms Ware. 'My wife and children looked over the railings of the bridge and started hysterically screaming,' he told the court yesterday. 'I looked over and saw two men viciously attacking a lady who was on the floor in the foetal position. 'She was unconscious, she wasn’t trying to defend herself from the kicks and punches, and she wasn't making any noise.' Action: Capt Gold had been walking along the River Taff in Cardiff when he rushed to rescue unconscious Miss Ware from the freezing water . The jury was told that Capt Gold then dragged his children away from the scene and rang 999 on his mobile phone. He said he saw two men pushing Miss Ware into the river - Edwards rolling her with his feet and Pincott pushing with his hands. 'She rolled into the river like a log,' he said. 'She didn’t even try to fight - she just disappeared under the water.' The . father-of-three, who has served as an Army medic for 21 years then ran . down to the river bank to try and save Miss Ware from drowning. 'A man I now know is Pincott ran past me away from the river,' he told the court. 'He wasn’t screaming for help - he was trying to get away.' Capt Gold said Miss Ware suddenly 'bobbed' to surface of the freezing river last February but was face down and wasn’t moving. He watched as Edwards swam toward her seemingly lifeless body. 'I thought he was going to rescue her but he didn’t,' he said. 'He pushed her beneath the water and she disappeared again. 'Not once did he try to bring her head out of the water.' Drowning: Capt Gold said Miss Ware suddenly 'bobbed' to surface of the freezing river last February but was face down and wasn't moving . When Miss Ware returned to the surface and became caught on the riverbank, Capt Gold said he fought off her attacker and pulled her to the bank. 'She was blue, not moving and had no pulse. She was dead,' he said. 'She had been under the water for close to three minutes and there were no signs of life.' He said he then began to perform CPR and with the help of a passing doctor who performed mouth-to-mouth they managed to revive her. When paramedics arrived, Miss Ware rushed to hospital and fortunately went on to make a full recovery. Captain Gold identified Edwards and Pincott to police officers at the scene and they were arrested following the incident in February. Earlier in the trial the court heard that Edwards had told police that Miss Ware had ended up in the water after the couple had argued, and that he had gone in to help her. Pincott said he had witnessed the argument and denied assaulting Miss Ware in any way. Edwards, of Butetown, Cardiff, denies attempting to murder Miss Ware and a charge of assaulting Mark Gold. Pincott, of Barry, near Cardiff, also denies attempted murder. The trial continues.

Wilshere starred in a holding role for England in European Championship qualifying wins over San Marino and Estonia. Wilshere has shone for his country in recent games playing as a defensive playmaking midfielder .

But Brady, who continued his association with the Gunners into an academy director role until May this year, wants to see more of Wilshere around the penalty area. 'I don't like Jack playing in the holding role,' Brady told talkSPORT. 'He's a much more valuable player when he's up around the box. 'I don't like him as a number ten, he's a midfield player you want to encourage to get forward where he can beat players with his dribbling.' Former Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes holds a different view to Brady. Speaking in his column for the Independent, Scholes hailed Wilshere as the best performing England player at present and believes the Gunner is flourishing in his deep-lying role for Roy Hodgson's men. 'I thought Jack Wilshere had two very good games for England during the last week,' Scholes said. 'I would go one step further than that and say that, at the moment, Wilshere is England’s best player. 'The penny has dropped and he has added another dimension to his game. He has always been capable of that intricate passing game. Now he can play the ball long, too. 'The quality of some of those passes into Wayne Rooney in Estonia was very high.

A new collapsible coffee cup gives drinkers a chance to grab their caffeine fix on the go - and then store the empty mug in their pocket. Smash Cup (shown) is a portable, reusable and eco-friendly coffee cup which can collapse down when empty to fit in handbags, backpacks and even pockets . With the average coffee drinker throwing away a total of 500 disposable cups every year, the reusable Smash Cup can apparently help to reduce waste. The collapsible cup is the brainchild of Ben Melinger, 34, who believed there was a need for the standard travel cup to become more convenient. His product combines an iconic design with a resuable body and a leak-proof lid - all of which promises to take up as little room as possible. It takes apparently as much energy as smashing an egg on a table with your hand to close the cup. 'When we first came up with the idea we were amazed there were no similar products on the market,' said Melinger, a management consultant from New York. 'Smash Cup is reminiscent of disposable coffee cups, but upgraded for a more robust and modern aesthetic. 'We strove to create an iconic look that city commuters, busy parents and students alike would be proud to own and display. 'It takes years of effort to develop a product and there was so much self-doubt, and so many little hurdles that popped up during the process. 'But whenever we took a step back and had a look at the Smash Cup with fresh eyes, we always felt we had a winner. 'This kept us pushing ahead - one step at a time.'

At full height (right) it stands at five inches (12.7 centimetres), holding a capacity of 12 ounces (340 millilitres) of hot or cold beverages (left). But when empty, the simple looking design can collapse down to measure just one and three quarters of an inch in height . After two years developing the idea, Ben was surprised to see immediate success when he placed Smash Cup on crowdfunding site, Kickstarter. You may currently grab a coffee while filling up your car at a petrol station, but in the future you could be refuelling your vehicle with the aromatic brown liquid too. Scientists claim that a ‘green’ biofuel made from waste coffee grounds could power vehicles on our roads. Around 22 pounds (10 kilograms) of leftover grounds, generated by the average coffee shop, produces around two litres of the biofuel. The scientists believe that if this were scaled up nationally, popular high street coffee shops such as Starbucks, Café Nero and Costa Coffee could soon be rivalling oil giants like Shell, BP and Esso. Researchers at the University of Bath said such waste coffee grounds could be a sustainable fuel source for powering vehicles. He set a goal of raising £6,000 ($10,000) in 30 days, enough to allow him to begin the production process in America. But amazingly he reached his target after just one day - and he is now well above his original goal. 'I am floored by the response,' he said. 'I was actually concerned that the low price of the product would make it a struggle to reach $2,000 [£1,200] on the first day - let alone $10,000 [£6,000] in 30. 'But it all happened on day one! My friends and family have been really supportive and I find it funny when they tell me they're addicted to watching the screen tick up and up. 'But more than any amounts of money, I'm just happy to know that we're going to be able to make Smash Cup a real thing and put it on the market. 'I love to create things and it's a great feeling to know other people appreciate what you've created.' Smash Cup has a water-tight seal, activated by closing the cup with a simple quarter turn. With three parts made from silicone and plastic, Melinger says the cup is easy to clean and it is also dishwasher safe. It comes in five different colours - red, green, blue, pink and orange - with the plastic lid available in white and dark grey. And as a special tribute to its humble beginnings, Ben has also designed a limited edition version for Kickstarter - in the website's signature light green. Smash Cup is currently only available to Kickstarter backers but Ben hopes to work with a UK or European distributor or team up with a coffee chain to reach customers worldwide." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "New York-based inventor has unveiled his coffee cup that collapses .\nThe 'Smash Cup' can be squashed down in size once it has been used .\nBen Melinger's £9 ($15) product recently reached its target on Kickstarter .\nThe cup is five inches high and can hold 12 ounces of beverages .\nInventor claims it could be a greener solution to throwing away cups ." } ]

Archbishop of Westminster Vincent Nichols said the proposals were a ‘shambles’, and accused David Cameron of pushing through the changes without a mandate. In his Christmas Eve sermon at Westminster Cathedral, he said that only marriage between a man and a woman shares in ‘the creative love of God’. Protest: The Archbishop of Westminster Vincent Nichols wants Catholics to write to their MPs expressing their concerns about gay marriage plans . The criticism follows that of the Catholic Bishop of Shrewsbury, Mark Davies, who used his Christmas homily to liken moves to legalise same-sex marriage to the way Nazis and Communists tried to undermine religion. Mr Cameron wants to allow gay couples to get married in churches but he says religious organisations will be able to opt out. Archbishop Nichols criticised successive governments for failing to stand up for marriage and promoting sex before marriage instead. In an interview with the BBC, he attacked parties who were promoting same-sex marriage, saying the plan was ‘Orwellian’ because there was no mandate from the public. ‘From a democratic point of view, it’s a shambles,’ he said. ‘George Orwell would be proud of the manoeuvre. I think the process is shambolic.’ The Archbishop’s comments come despite the fact polls show the public is largely in favour of allowing gay couples to marry. Opposition: The most senior Catholic in England and Wales described the plans as 'Orwellian' Criticism: Catholics must act to try and change the minds of politicians throughout the UK . The Pope has sought to heal relations with China as he asked for blessings for the communist leadership for the first time in his Christmas Day message. But speaking in St Peter’s Square in Rome, Benedict XVI also urged the regime to respect religion. It follows a row two weeks ago when the Vatican refused to accept China’s decision to revoke the title of a Shanghai bishop. Asking for China’s leaders to ‘esteem the contribution of the religions’, the Pope said it would help build a ‘fraternal society for the benefit of that noble people’. He also spoke against the slaughter of the ‘defenceless’ in Syria, and urged Israelis and Palestinians to find the courage to negotiate. Turning to the nations of the Arab Spring, he urged that they build just and respectful societies, especially Egypt. The 85-year-old also prayed for peace in Mali and in Nigeria, where, he said ‘savage acts of terrorism continue to reap victims, particularly among Christians’. Civil partnerships – which come with most, but not all, of the legal safeguards of marriage – were introduced seven years ago. They allow gay couples to celebrate their unions in civil settings, but not in religious buildings. Now the Government wants to allow them to call their unions marriage and have the ceremony in civil and religious settings. Religious organisations such as the Quakers and the Unitarians have said they would like to be able to host gay marriages. But the Church of England and Roman Catholic Church are against it and the legislation says it would be illegal for any Anglican vicar to marry a gay couple. Ministers insist that churches will never be forced to carry out gay marriage, but opponents say homosexual couples could get the ban overturned under European human rights laws. Last week Pope Benedict XVI reiterated his opposition to gay marriage, saying that it was destroying the very ‘essence of the human creature’. Outgoing Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams admitted yesterday that the rejection of women bishops had damaged the Church of England.

Sorry: MF Global's former chief Jon Corzine - pictured today - has apologised to customers, employees and investors, saying 'their plight weighs on my mind' ‘I simply do not know where the money is, or why the accounts have not been reconciled to date,’ he told the House Agriculture Committee. ‘Their plight weighs on my mind every day - every hour,’ the former U.S. senator said in 21 pages of remarks prepared for delivery on Thursday.

A top executive of futures exchange operator CME Group said claimed Global misused hundreds of millions of dollars of customer funds. In the strongest accusation yet against the bankrupt futures brokerage, the CME executive said MF Global moved the money to its own accounts. The biggest U.S. futures exchange operator was a hands-on regulator of MF Global. Its executive chairman Terrence Duffy also gave prepared remarks. ‘Transfers of customer funds for the benefit of the firm constitute serious violations of our rules and of the Commodity Exchange Act,’ he said. He said the brokerage admitted during a call with regulators that customer money was transferred out of segregation to the firm's own accounts. The court-appointed trustee has estimated . the shortfall of customer money at $1.2 billion, but CME has disputed . that figure as being too high.

An Kashmiri man claims he is 141 years old - which would make him the oldest person alive. Feroz-un-Din Mir, from Kashmir, says he has a government certificate proving he was born on March 10, 1872. Staff from Guinness World Records are thought to be investigating the claim, which would make him 26 years older than Misao Okawa, the 115-year-old current record holder. He would also overtake Frenchwoman Jeanne Calment as the oldest person to have ever lived. Ms Calment died in 1997 at the age of 122. Mr Mir is married to a woman in her eighties, Misra, and has outlived four other wives, reports Kashmir Life. He can still walk with help from his family, has some of his eyesight left, and can talk about his extraordinary life in his native tongue Pahari. Mr Mir followed in the footsteps of his father Matulli to become a fruit and nut trader and would often accompany him to Pakistan's capital Karachi. In the 1890s, he married his first wife and lived with her in Pakistan until her death in the early 1900s. 'There were no boundaries between India . and Pakistan at that time. It was easy to go to Muzaffarbad than to . Srinagar,' Mr Mir told the magazine. 'I used to work with a business family in Karachi who would buy . nuts from me. I would take nuts from Kashmir which were very famous in . Karachi.' Once he became a widower, he moved back to his birthplace in the village of Bihjama in Kashmir's Uri district, and went on to marry four more times. Misra, his fifth wife, told Kashmir Life: 'His experience of life is cruel. He used . to tell me stories of earthquake, which struck Sopore and Pattan area in . late 1880s and, while he on a trader trip to Karachi, he saved many . lives in Gadiduptata. 'He is witness to some of the most significant . events in history in the past century.' After the earthquake, Mr Mir was: 'so happy' to find his family alive and well. If Mr Mir's claims are true, they would see him overtake Frenchwoman Jeanne Calment as the oldest person to have ever lived. She died at the age of 122 years, 164 days in 1997 . Jiroemon Kimura held the title of the world's oldest living person until last month when he died aged 116 . He recalled when Pakistani raiders arrived in Kashmir in the late 19th century and said everyone had hid in the mountains while the raiders destroyed a power house in Mohra and killed the guard. Mr Mir also said life had become more complicated as modern life became more technologically advanced. 'As the life started becoming easy, people couldn’t live easily with each other,' he said. His grandson Abdul Rashid said Mr Mir's health and memory had suffered since an eye operation ten years ago. He told the magazine: 'We used to hear so many . stories from him when we were young that we would never get fed up. He . is an interesting man who has seen life very closely.' Before Mr Mir's story emerged, it was thought that the last man to have lived in the 19th century was Jiroemon Kimura, born on April 19, 1897. Mr Kimura died last month in Kyotango, Japan, at the age of 116, leaving behind seven children, 14 . grandchildren, 25 great-grandchildren and 15 great-great-grandchildren.

The event temporarily blacked out a few radio communication systems before weakening. The storm came from a large group of sunspots and hit Earth between 10 am and 11 am EDT (2pm and 3pm BST) yesterday. Scroll down for video . An X1.6 class flare erupted from the lower half of the sun today, as seen in the bright flash of light in this image from Nasa's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). This image shows extreme ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 131 Angstroms, which highlights the intense heat of a solar flare . 'It would seem to be just a matter of time before another strong explosion occurs,' said Spaceweather.com's Tony Phillips . Space Weather Prediction Center forecaster Christopher Balch, meanwhile, said the flare affected radio that uses part of the upper atmosphere. That includes some but not all radar and plane systems as well as amateur radio. Solar flares can damage satellites and have an enormous financial cost. The charged particles can also threaten airlines by disturbing the Earth’s magnetic field. Very large flares can even create currents within electricity grids and knock out energy supplies. A positive aspect, from an aesthetic point of view, is that the auroras are enhanced. Geomagnetic storms are more disruptive now than in the past because of our greater dependence on technical systems that can be affected by electric currents. Mr Balch said the storm briefly was rated as strong for affecting Earth radio systems but then dropped to minor levels. The event followed months of near-silent activity on the sun before the huge flare erupted from a sunspot 14 times bigger than Earth. A spokesperson for the Met Office Space Weather Operations Centre told MailOnline it may be the biggest sunspot for 25 years. But they said in the UK there had been 'no reports of any disruption at all. There may have been short periods of outage in radio communication but nothing has been repotred as causing problems.' Flares are massive explosions on the Sun associated with sunspots. Magnetic fields in sunspots can store vast amounts of energy, but looping magnetic field lines can get tangled up and snap, releasing their energy as explosions called flares. Sunspot AR12192 is 14 times larger than Earth and almost as big as Jupiter. The Met Office told MailOnline it might be the largest sunspot in 25 years. It is so big that it can be seen in images of the sun from Earth's surface (shown in this image from pilot Brian Whittaker) The light area in the centre of this image is the largest sunspot in this 11-year solar cycle, says the Met Office, and it may also have been the largest sunspot for 25 years . Yesterday's flare was an X1.6, which is a million times the combined yield of every single nuclear weapon on Earth. 'The sun erupted with another significant flare today, peaking at 10:28 a.m. EDT on Oct. 22, 2014,' revealed Nasa. 'Nasa’s Solar Dynamics Observatory captured images of the event, which occurred in the lower half of the sun. 'This flare is classified as an X1.6 class flare. 'X-class flares denote the most extreme flares. 'This is the third substantial flare from the same region of the sun since Oct. 19.' Dr Young of Nasa’s Goddard Space Flight Center added: ‘It continues to grow in size and complexity.' The sunspot group - Active Region 2192 - has doubled in size to become one of the biggest groups in years, and has been described by astronomy experts as ‘menacing’. Up close: Monster Sunspot AR12192 taken by Karzaman Ahmad on October 21, 2014 from Langkawi Nagtional Observatory, Malaysia . Solar flares are powerful bursts of radiation. Nasa says, ‘Harmful radiation from a flare cannot pass through Earth’s atmosphere to physically affect humans on the ground, but when intense enough - they can disturb the atmosphere in the layer where GPS and communications signals travel.’ An SDO/HMI view of the visible sun showing the largest sunspot of solar cycle 24, AR12192 - which is approaching the size of Earth. According to experts at thesuntoday.org, 'As of Oct. 22, 2014 (11 UT) the region’s trailing spots have an area of 2410 MH or millionths of a visible solar hemisphere. 'The largest up until now had been AR11967 on Feb. 5, 2014, measuring 1580 MH. MH is a standard measure used by astronomers for area. 'Just to provide some scale, the surface area of Earth is 169 MH - this means that AR12192 is 14 times larger than the surface area of Earth.' According to Nasa's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) team a single, dynamic active region unleashed over half a dozen solar flares in about 24 hours from 25 to 26 August. The two larger flares were M-class (moderate) flares and the others were smaller flares.

Joao Magueijo, 47, a physics professor at Imperial College London, has seen his book, Bifes Mal Passados (Undercooked Beef) sell more than 20,000 copies in his native country. Despite spending 25 years of his life on these shores, he describes England as 'one of the most rigid and rotten societies in Europe, possibly the world'. He says the English are 'always fighting' and claims 'I never met such a group of animals' - English culture is pathologically violent'. Describing a four-hour wait in a Blackpool hospital's A&E department one Sunday afternoon, he says 'it looked like a field hospital after battle'. The professor, who spent seven years as a fellow at St John's College, Cambridge, came to England in 1989 to do a master's degree and PhD in theoretical physics. He has written several books on the subject, with one, Faster Than The Speed Of Light, written in 2003, receiving ridicule after he challenged Einstein's theory of relativity. In his latest work, which has been in Portugal's top five best-sellers for the last five months, he writes despairingly about English drinking, eating and sexual habits. He moans: 'It is not unusual to drink 12 pints, or two huge buckets of beer per person. 'Even a horse would get drunk with this but in England it is standard practice. In England, real men have to drink like sponges, eat like skeletons and throw up everything at the end of the evening.' He labels the diet in the country as 'deplorable', with food 'based on greasy stuff and unspeakable artificial lard'. Scroll down for video . In his book, the university professor says it is normal for men in England to drink 12 pints of beer (picture posed by models) Even national favourite, fish and chips, does not escape his attack. He says that a standard meal will consist of 'a thin layer of the animal covered in many inches of batter, sometimes ten times bigger than the actual fish'.

He continues: 'They say \"it's grim up north\"...and now I see why. 'People in the north are incredibly obese, men and women with three-metre waists made of fat and lard.

It's reciprocal fear and hate.' Speaking to the MailOnline today, he said English people should laugh about the book. He added: 'And think of those poor sods down in Portugal, enduring a huge economic crisis, and who certainly need a laugh too'. The book is dedicated to the Queen and to his Portuguese grandparents. Mr Magueijo claims it will not be getting translated into English because 'much would be lost in translation'. But he insists he does 'not fear British backlash' as he trusts 'the British sense of humour. The book is not a serious book. It is humour, and meant to be taken that way'. Despite condemning the English for their 'food, class system and culture' he did have some positive things to say about the country. He said today: 'I love the tolerance, the creativity and the madness of the people. 'There is a certain incapacity for institutional repression, which I like.' He added: 'I'd had so many awful experiences attempting to have holidays in the UK that I thought they could serve as a good narrative backbone, Fawlty Towers-style. 'Monty Python is the inspiration.' In his book, he does offer some consolation to English readers, saying 'I am thankful to England for the working climate I was offered.

The controversial former Manchester United youngster posted a snap on Instagram as he did his French homework. Attacking midfielder Morrison has found his feet back in the Championship with the South Wales club after failing to break into Sam Allardyce's set-up at Upton Park. Ravel Morrison has been learning French when he hasn't been on the pitch for on-loan side Cardiff . Morrison advances with the ball for Cardiff in a narrow away defeat against Blackpool earlier this month . The 21-year-old is no stranger to the Championship after impressing during a loan spell at QPR last season, notching six goals as Rangers sealed promotion to the Premier League. Former Hammers boss Harry Redknapp believes Morrison is one of the most talented players he's seen, but has issues with his attitude. In his new book A Man Walks On To a Pitch, serialised in Sportsmail, Redknapp said of Morrison's loan spell at Loftus Road: 'There was one game last season when we'd lost confidence and were losing. I asked him to change his position, to play on the left. His face fell into a petulant pout. The 21-year-old looks to go on the attack during QPR's home clash with Blackpool last season . Morrison has the ball at his feet during his current loan spell with Cardiff and during a rare appearance for West Ham earlier this season . 'I pulled him away from the rest, took him outside and explained as patiently as the time allowed. \"Ravel, we are losing the f**** game,\" I said. \"I just want you to play there and do a job for the team. We have to win the game. It's not about you, OK? It's about the team. People look at your face in there when I've asked you to do something, and they will all go away and think you are a big-headed b****, because your attitude stinks. That's what people say about you\". 'Second half he was absolutely different class. He ran the game, everything good we did came from him and we were all watching it thinking, \"What a talent\". 'You looked at that performance and thought he could get us promoted on his own if he put his mind to it. It was like watching a player with Gareth Bale's class in the Championship.' West Ham co-owner David Sullivan says time is running out for Morrison if he wants a future at Upton Park . In a recent Q&A with the Evening Standard, West Ham co-owner David Sullivan echoed Redknapp's thoughts on the maverick playmaker, admitting time is running out for Morrison if he wants to forge a long-term future for himself at Upton Park. He said: 'The biggest disappointment is Ravel is such a talented individual. 'Thousands of kids would give anything to have his ability. Maybe the penny will drop eventually but his contract is up next summer. 'We all love him but we can't do it all for him. He has to do it himself.'" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Ravel Morrison has been spending time learning French in his spare time .\nThe 21-year-old is currently on loan at Championship side Cardiff .\nMorrison has fallen out of favour at West Ham under Sam Allardyce .\nThe maverick midfielder will be hoping the loan can reignite his career ." } ]

The Met Office has issued a yellow 'be aware' warning for Northern Ireland, western and eastern Scotland, north Wales, the Midlands and the north of England ahead of the storm.

Boats were dragged away from their moorings and some capsized as the storm planted a direct hit on the British territory. Nobody in Bermuda has been killed or seriously injured by the extreme weather. Residents were urged to stay indoors while the hurricane struck. Gonzalo approached Bermuda as a Category 3 storm then weakened to Category 2 strength just before coming ashore with sustained winds of 110 mph. Even after beginning to move away, its fierce winds continued to hit the island for hours. Mr Partridge added: ‘The main reason for the warning is the timing, as strong winds will be coming through the Tuesday morning rush hour – it will be wet and windy and there will be spray on the roads. ‘Also the trees are still quite full of leaves at the moment and with those strong winds we could see a lot more leaves on the roads.'

According to a new analysis, however, some of Johann Sebastian Bach’s best-loved works may actually have been written by his wife. An expert claims that Anna Magdalena, Bach’s second wife, was the composer of some of his major pieces, including the cello suites. Johann Sebastian Bach's second wife, Anna Magdalena, may have composed some of his finest works, academics have claimed . Martin Jarvis, professor of music at Charles Darwin University in Australia, has spent years compiling evidence, with a comprehensive study of handwriting and manuscripts. He will present his findings in a documentary entitled Written By Mrs Bach, due to be screened at Bafta in London next week. The film will detail his analysis of ink and writing style, which he says suggests Mrs Bach did far more work on the pieces than previously thought. He argues that Anna also wrote the aria from the Goldberg Variations and the first prelude of The Well-Tempered Clavier: Book I. Presented by British composer Sally Beamish, the film will include evidence from an American scientist who analysed Bach’s signature and his scores. Heidi Harralson, a forensic document examiner, said she believed the composer was more likely to be Anna than Bach himself, saying she was as sure as possible ‘within a reasonable degree of scientific certainty’. Mrs Bach helped her husband write the Cello Suites because of his ailing health, but researchers have now claimed that she composed them herself . Anna is already known to have transcribed for Bach in his later years, but researchers found the handwriting did not have the ‘slowness or heaviness’ of someone who is merely copying. They concluded that the handwriting suggested she had composed the scores herself. The experts also pointed to numerous corrections to music written in her hand, signalling she is likely to have been composing it as she went along. Anna, an accomplished singer, married Bach in 1721 when she was 20 and he was 36. Many of her papers are said to have been destroyed after her death, leaving little trace of her legacy. Miss Beamish told the Sunday Telegraph: ‘What I found fascinating is the questions it raises about the assumptions we make: that music is always written by one person and all the great masters were male by definition.’" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Bach's second wife composed some of his finest works, academics say .\nStudy of handwriting on Bach's work suggests she was behind the music .\nResearchers know Mrs Bach helped husband write in his later years .\nBut forensic analysis 'proves' she was composing the scores herself ." } ]

But United are not the first club to miss out on a big star due to a combination of bad luck and poor judgement. Sir Alex Ferguson was responsible for bringing in Jones and not Varane but at least he wasn't the manager who passed up on Diego Maradona in favour of, er, Alejandro Sabella. Read on for more details about that particular gaffe and other ones who got away in British football's biggest transfer misses. 1 Kenny Dalglish - West Ham, 1966 . The man hailed as King Kenny by the Kop could have been handed the same epithet by the Bobby Moore Stand instead had things turned out differently. Legend has it that West Ham boss Ron Greenwood thought Dalglish was too lightweight and so turned down the chance to sign the 15-year-old striker, but Harry Redknapp suggests in his new book, A Man Walks On to a Pitch, that Dalglish was always destined for Celtic. Dalglish went on to become both Liverpool and Scotland's greatest player. Kenny Dalgish's name is still sung at Anfield many years after he finished playing for Liverpool . 2 Diego Maradona - Sheffield United, 1978 . United boss Harry Haslam spotted a 17-year-old Maradona on a scouting trip to Argentina and was so impressed that he struck a £200,000 deal there and then. But when Argentinos Juniors demanded more cash the Blades board refused to cough up, and bought Maradona's countryman Alejandro Sabella instead. Sabella spent two years at Bramall Lane and went on to coach Argentina to last summer's World Cup final. Maradona inspired his side to win the trophy in 1986 and is perhaps the greatest footballer ever to live. Whoops. Diego Maradona is held aloft after Argentina defeated West Germany 3-2 in the World Cup final in 1986 . 3 Eric Cantona - Sheffield Wednesday, 1991 . 'Ooh Aah' - not just the sound of Manchester United fans singing Cantona's praises but probably also the mumbled response of Trevor Francis when asked why he didn't sign King Eric when he had the chance. Cantona was up for grabs after an epic tantrum at Nimes (when he threw a ball at a ref and called in turn each member of the French FA's disciplinary team an idiot) and went on trial at Wednesday after threatening to retire from the game. After a week of training indoors due to bad weather, Francis was somehow still not convinced and asked the striker to stay on for a further week to play on grass. Cantona refused and was snapped up by Leeds. He joined Manchester United a year later and became the first true star of the Premier League era (and the player who consequently transformed English football for two decades). Eric Cantona scores for Manchester United against local rivals City in 1993 . 4 Alan Shearer - Manchester United, 1992 . The Premier League's all-time record goalscorer could have ensured near total dominance for the top-flight's most successful club had he moved to Old Trafford from Southampton in 1992. Instead, Shearer chose to join Blackburn Rovers because United 'took too long' to seal the deal, which had been lined up. Shearer helped Blackburn pip United to the title in 1995 and became a thorn in their side for years as a world-class striker. Alan Shearer is the deadliest marksman in Premier League history, with a signature goal celebration . 5 Andriy Shevchenko - West Ham, 1995 . This one is best told in Harry Redknapp's own words: 'I was at West Ham and Frank Lampard Snr and I were approached by these two villains who said they were doing some business in the Ukraine, and we were so scared of them we agreed to have a look at a couple of these kids. 'One of them we played against Barnet Reserves and he scored the winner. They said they wanted a million quid for him, and Frank said it was too much — well I’m blaming Frank — and we let him go. His name was Andriy Shevchenko!' Andriy Shevchenko enjoyed a brilliant career at AC Milan... after failing to land a deal at West Ham . 6 Zinedine Zidane - Blackburn, 1995 . When offered the chance to sign Zinedine Zidane, what might you say? Probably not 'no thanks - we've got Tim Sherwood'. Unfortunately that is roughly what the late Jack Walker, then Rovers owner, said when he had the opportunity to bring the greatest player of his generation to Lancashire. Instead, Zidane left Bordeaux for Juventus a year later and went on to become a legend in Italy and then an original Galactico at Real Madrid. Zinedine Zidane holds up the World Cup after inspiring France to victory at at the Stade de France in 1998 . 7 Zlatan Ibrahimovic – Arsenal, 2000 . Not many 16-year-olds would turn down the chance to have a trial at Arsenal but Ibrahimovic was never your average player. 'Arsene (Wenger) gave me the famous red and white jersey - the No 9 shirt with Ibrahimovic on it and I was so pleased I even posed for a picture wearing it,' he said. 'He never actually made me a serious offer, it was more, \"I want to see how good you are, what kind of player you are. Have a trial\". 'I couldn't believe it. I was like, \"No way, Zlatan doesn't do auditions\". Fourteen years later, Ibrahimovic has won titles at Ajax, Juventus, Inter Milan, Barcelona, AC Milan and Paris Saint-Germain, and is Sweden's greatest ever player. Zlatan Ibrahimovic wearing his Arsenal shirt (left) and celebrating a goal against the Gunners in 2010 (right) 8 Ronaldinho - St Mirren, 2001 . Yes, you read right. Just before moving to Paris Saint-Germain, Ronaldinho was lined up for a short spell at the Scottish outfit, with his advisers insisting that he could do with a stint in Europe to acclimatise to the style of football on the continent. Unfortunately for the Buddies red tape scuppered the move. Ronaldinho, perhaps employing selective memory, said a few years later of the St Mirren move: 'I had a lot of offers from Europe. I can't remember where they were all from.' Ronaldinho was the most skilful forward in the world at Barcelona in the early part of the 21st century . 9 Cristiano Ronaldo - Arsenal, 2003 . Ibrahimovic wasn't the only player to have been seduced by an Arsenal shirt with their name and the No 9 on the back. Sadly for Wenger, the tactic failed with Cristiano Ronaldo too. The £80m Real Madrid superstar did what Zlatan would never do and took up a week's trial with the Gunners, but Wenger was gazumped by Manchester United, who used Carlos Queiroz to appeal to the Portugal starlet. Oh well, Arsene - at least you didn't miss out on Lionel Messi... Cristiano Ronaldo almost moved to Arsenal before Manchester United stepped in and lured him away . 10 Lionel Messi - Arsenal, 2003 . Ah. Right. Yes, unfortunately Wenger did also miss out on Messi, meaning the two greatest players on the planet both slipped through the Arsenal boss's fingertips. Wenger came within a whisker of signing Messi from Barcelona’s La Masia academy when he was just 16, along with Gerard Pique and Cesc Fabregas, promising the Barca trio first-team football. Messi was, remarkably, interested in moving to north London, but the deal was ruined because of issues over the Argentina forward’s work permit. And the rest, as they say, is history.

A commuter who told an Asian man to ‘f* off back to your own country’ in a rant on a Tube train has been found not guilty of racial harassment . Accountant Claire Moloney was allowed to sit with her family while the verdict was announced. A gasp of relief was heard when she was pronounced not guilty, and her husband put his arms around her and gave her a hug. One family member was heard to say, 'About time.' Mrs Moloney said during her trial that she was embarrassed to watch film footage in which she screamed at an unidentified man, and which was later uploaded to YouTube, and shown to the court at her trial. The jury at Snaresbrook Crown Court also decided she did not intend her words to cause harassment, alarm or distress.

The mother-of-two denied she was racist, saying . she was upset at being told she had 'blood on my hands' and being . criticised because she had been drinking alcohol. ‘I’m not a racist in any shape or form,’ she told the court in her evidence. ‘I agree the language is horrific and I am mortified. ‘I was half asleep and he said something to do with my poppy and I wondered if it was about me. ‘He said something about blood on my hands for invading his country. ‘I know what he said was derogatory . and against women in general and he definitely used the word “Slag” because I was out drinking. ‘I was insulted and I lost it and I ranted; I was arguing my case.’ ‘I was in a rage, I lost control and I was ranting but he was goading me.’ It . was suggested to Moloney that the man was at a ‘point of surrender’ but . she said: ‘I do not think so.

Bush said on Friday that he was baffled by a New York grand jury's decision not to indict a police officer who put Eric Garner into a chokehold. 'I thought how sad. The verdict was hard to understand,' Bush told CNN's Candy Crowley in a clip on an interview the network plans to air during Crowley's show on Sunday, adding that he 'hadn't seen all the details.' 'But it’s sad that race continues to play such....an emotional, divisive part of life,' he continued, reflecting on the race riots he witnessed growing up in the 1970s. 'I do think we've improved.' Scroll down for video . 'It’s sad that race continues to play such....an emotional, divisive part of life,' former President George W. Bush told CNN host Candy Crowley in an interview aired in part today by the network . In the segment of the interview that was released, Bush did not weigh in on whether the Department of Justice should proceed with a civil rights investigation into the killing nor did he list particular reforms that federal and enforcement officials should purse in order to prevent similar deaths. He did relay a conversation that he and his former secretary of state, Condoleeza Rice, had over dinner after a grand jury declined to indict former Ferguson, Missouri, police officer Darren Wilson for taking the life of Michael Brown. 'We talked about this subject, and ...she just said, \"You’ve got to understand that there are a lot of black folks around that are incredibly more and more distrusting of law enforcement.\" 'Which is a shame, because law enforcement’s job is to protect everybody,' he said. President Barack Obama and the White House have been careful not to publicly comment on either of the grand jury decisions or potential federal actions, noting that it would be inappropriate for them to influence or interfere with Justice's probe. Instead, the president has spoken more vaguely about the effect that the court decisions had on minority communities, pointing out that 'too many' feel that 'law enforcement is not working with them and dealing with them in a fair way.' 'We are not going to let up until we see a strengthening of trust and strengthening of accountability that exists between our communities and our law enforcement,' he said after the verdict was announced on Wednesday. Black members of Congress said on Thursday that the White House could show its support for the African-American community by inviting the families of Brown and Garner to the president's annual State of the Union address next month, . 'Those families are symbols of an issue that needs to be urgently addressed in America,' Georgia Rep. Hank Johnson told the Hill. 'I think it would be an excellent idea.' 'It would be good that we put a face to the injustices that have occurred as a result of the criminal justice system that hasn't been lifted to a point of colorblindness,' New York Rep. Yvette Clark said. At least one Republican in Congress, New York Rep. Peter King, has come out swinging in favor of the white law enforcement officers in New York, saying, that had Garner not 'had asthma and a heart condition and was so obese, almost definitely he would not have died' and that 'there’s not a hint there that anyone used any racial epithet.' King said he has 'no doubt' that a '350 pound white guy' would have faced the same treatment at the hands of police. A protester, demanding justice for Eric Garner, holds a placard featuring Garner's final words while staging a 'die-in' with dozens of others in downtown White Plains, New York today. Protesters swarmed streets of Manhattan or a second night on Thursday to denounce a grand jury's decision to spare a white police officer from criminal prosecution in the choking death of the unarmed black man . Kentucky Sen. and likely 2016 contestant Rand Paul said Wednesday that he blames the politicians who created the laws that led to what happened. Garner was first approached by police because he was hawking untaxed cigarettes on the street in Staten Island, which is illegal. 'Obviously, the individual circumstances are important, but I think it’s also important to know that some politician put a tax of $5.85 on a pack of cigarettes, so they’ve driven cigarettes underground by making them so expensive,' Paul told Hardball host Chris Matthews. 'But then some politician also had to direct the police to say, \"Hey, we want you arresting people for selling a loose cigarette.\" ' he said. Paul said 'there really is no excuse for' anyone to die for breaking that type of law, and added, 'but I do blame the politicians. We put our police in a difficult situation with bad laws.' Other Republicans on Capitol Hill have mostly been quiet about the death this week, however, preferring to gripe instead about the president's executive actions on immigration. GOP conference chair Cathy McMorris Rogers said yesterday, however, that she 'absolutely' believes that Congress should hearings on Garner's death. House Speaker John Boehner didn't directly endorse hearings at a press conference on Thursday, telling reporters, 'I’m not going to rule that in or out,' but the GOP leader acknowledged that he does think 'that the American people deserve answers about what really happened here.'" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "'It’s sad that race continues to play such....an emotional, divisive part of life,' Bush said reflecting on the race riots he witnessed growing up .\nSpeaking generally about race relations, Bush told CNN's Candy Crowley: 'I do think we've improved'\nCNN aired the first part of the interview with Bush today and saved the rest for Crowley's show on Sunday morning ." } ]

The man who lured her to the UK, David Russell, took her to a forest and persuaded the 19-year-old to wear a blindfold, saying he had a gift for her. Russell then stood behind her and slit her throat. The terrified teenager tried to escape but the 20-year-old McDonald’s worker stabbed her several times, hit her in the face with a log and headbutted her. Miraculously, she survived. At Northampton Crown Court, Russell admitted kidnap and attempted murder and was jailed for life. The court was told he had posed as tattooed rocker Oliver Sykes, lead singer in the Sheffield-based metal band Bring Me The Horizon, currently touring the Americas.

After meeting Miss Benedicto at the town’s railway station, Russell took her to a nearby forest, claiming it held special childhood memories. Mr Donnellan said: ‘He asked her to sit down on a fallen tree trunk and said he was going to blindfold her. He said she would get a surprise or a present.

This event was thought to have not only sparked climate change, but also killed America's earliest people and caused a mass animal extinction. But a new study suggests this comet theory is false, as most supposed impact indicators at 29 sites are too old or too young to be remnants of an ancient comet. Theories that a comet struck Earth at the end of the Ice Age 12,800 years ago (artist's illustration shown) may be wrong, according to a new study. The researchers say evidence for dating at 29 impact sites across North America suggesting a comet sparked a brief period of cooling after the Ice Age is flawed . Controversy over what sparked the Younger Dryas, a brief return to near glacial conditions at the end of the Ice Age, includes a theory that it was caused by a comet hitting the Earth. As proof, proponents point to sediments containing deposits they believe could result only from a cosmic impact. One . theory is that the circulation of warm tropical weather in the North . Atlantic was shutdown by an influx of fresh water from Lake Agassiz in . in mid-North America and deglaciation. This, some scientists say, explains why the 1,300-year deep freeze occurred after the Ice Age ended. Another theory is the impact hypothesis, which suggests a comet slammed into the planet and led to widespread cooling. Volcanic activity has also been suggested as a cause. A . sizeable eruption, with one culprit potentially being the Laacher See . volcano in Germany, could have significantly changed temperatures in the . northern hemisphere. Now a new study disproves that theory, said archaeologist David Meltzer of the Southern Methodist University in Dallas. Meltzer is lead author on the study and an expert in the Clovis culture, the peoples who lived in North America at the end of the Ice Age. His research team found that nearly all sediment layers purported to be from the Ice Age at 29 sites in North America and on three other continents are actually either much younger or much older. Scientists agree that the brief episode at the end of the Ice Age - officially known as the Younger Dryas after a flower that flourished at that time - sparked widespread cooling of the Earth 12,800 years ago and that this cool period lasted for 1,000 years. But theories about the cause of this abrupt climate change are numerous; they range from changes in ocean circulation patterns caused by glacial meltwater entering the ocean to the cosmic-impact theory. The cosmic-impact theory is said to be supported by the presence of geological indicators that are extraterrestrial in origin. However a review of the dating of the sediments at the 29 sites reported to have such indicators proves the cosmic-impact theory false, said Meltzer. Meltzer and his co-authors found that only three of 29 sites commonly referenced to support the cosmic-impact theory actually date to the window of time for the Ice Age. The findings, 'Chronological evidence fails to support claim of an isochronous widespread layer of cosmic impact indicators dated to 12,800 years ago,' were reported in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. 'The supposed impact markers are undated or significantly older or younger than 12,800 years ago,' report the authors. 'Either there were many more impacts than supposed, including one as recently as five centuries ago, or, far more likely, these are not extraterrestrial impact markers.' In North America, the Ice Age was marked . by the mass extinction of several dozen genera of large mammals, . including mammoths, mastodons, American horses, Western camels, two . types of deer, ancient bison, giant beaver, giant bears, sabre-toothed . cats, giant bears, American cheetahs and many other animals, as well as . plants. Scientists agree that a brief episode at the end of the Ice Age sparked widespread cooling of the Earth 12,800 years ago and that this cool period lasted for 1,000 years. But theories about the cause of this abrupt climate change are numerous including the cosmic-impact theory based on sites in places like Quebec . The Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis rests heavily on the claim that there is a Younger Dryas boundary layer at 29 sites in the Americas and elsewhere that contains deposits of supposed extraterrestrial origin that date to a 300-year span centered on 12,800 years ago. The Younger Dryas period is also known as the Big Freeze. It was a period of cold climatic conditions . and drought that took place between 12,800 and 11,500 . years ago. Scientists believe this change in climate was caused by a . meteor impact, but another theory is that it was because of the collapse . of the North American ice sheets. During the period, forests in Scandinavia were replaced with a glacial tundra. There was more dust in the atmosphere that originated from deserts in Asia. The . drier conditions caused drought in the Levant, known as the region of . Syria or the Eastern Mediterranean, which led inhabitants to . agriculture. The change in climate is especially linked to the development of cereal cultivation. The deposits include magnetic grains with iridium, magnetic microspherules (microscopic spherical particles), charcoal, soot, carbon spherules (small spheres), glass-like carbon containing nanodiamonds and fullerenes (molecules made entirely of carbon) with extraterrestrial helium, all said to result from a comet or other cosmic event hitting the Earth. Meltzer and his colleagues tested that hypothesis by investigating the existing rock layers (known as stratigraphy) and chronological data sets reported in the published scientific literature to determine if these markers dated to the onset of the Younger Dryas. They sorted the 29 sites by the availability of radiometric or numeric ages and then the type of age control, if available, and whether the age control is secure. The researchers found that three sites lack absolute age control: at Chobot, Alberta, the three Clovis points found lack stratigraphic context, and the majority of other diagnostic artifacts are younger than Clovis by thousands of years. At Morley, Alberta, ridges are assumed without evidence to be chronologically correlated with Ice Age hills 1,600 miles (2,600 kilometers) away, while at Paw Paw Cove, Maryland, horizontal integrity of the Clovis artifacts found is compromised, according to that site's principal archaeologist. The remaining 26 sites have radiometric or other potential numeric ages, but only three date to the Younger Dryas boundary layer. At Lake Cuitzeo, Mexico (pictured) Meltzer and his team used the data of previous researchers but returned a different equation that put the cosmic-impact markers at a depth well above that which would mark the Younger Dryas onset, suggesting the cosmic-impact theory is wrong . At eight of the sites, the ages are unrelated to the supposed Younger Dryas boundary layer, as for example at Gainey, Michigan, where extensive mixing of artifacts amongst the rock layers found at the site makes it impossible to know their position to the supposed Younger Dryas boundary layer. Where direct dating did occur, it was some time after the 16th century AD according to the researchers. At Wally's Beach, Alberta, a radiocarbon age of 10,980 purportedly dates extraterrestrial impact markers from sediment in the skull of an extinct horse. In actuality, the study claims the date is from an extinct musk ox, and the fossil yielding the supposed impact markers was not dated, nor is there evidence to suggest that the fossils from Wally's Beach are all of the same age or date to the Younger Dryas onset. At nearly a dozen other sites, the authors report, the chronological results are neither reliable nor valid as a result of significant statistical flaws in the analysis, the omission of ages from the models, and the disregard of statistical uncertainty that accompanies all radiometric dates. For example, at Lake Cuitzeo, Mexico, Meltzer and his team used the data of previous researchers but returned a different equation that put the cosmic-impact markers at a depth well above that which would mark the Younger Dryas onset. The authors go on to point out that inferences about the ages of supposed Younger Dryas boundary layers are unsupported by replication in more cases than not." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Scientists have previously suggested a comet hit Earth 12,800 years ago .\nEvidence for this comes from 29 different sites across North America .\nBut new research suggests the dating methods used were flawed .\nStudy suggests the impact sites are too old or young to be from a comet .\nResearchers conclude cooling period after Ice Age has another origin ." } ]

Like other brelfie advocates such as Ellie Gordon, founder of the Facebook group 'Pump in Public', Emma admitted to regularly posting pictures when she was breastfeeding her daughter, now five, and currently uploads images of herself feeding her six-month-old son. Yet a growing movement is forming among mothers against the 'brelfie' despite 88 per cent of mothers saying social media sites are wrong to delete the intimate shots. Scroll down for video . Breastfeeding selfies are on the rise in 2015, as demonstrated by mother-of-four Ellie Gordon, 34, from Hertford, pictured feeding her 14-week-old daughter Bluebelle Beatrice . 'Why not share a brelfie?' Emma told presenters Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford on This Morning today. 'You can't see a lot as the baby is in the way. This morning I saw a half naked women with her legs akimbo in the newspaper so if that's okay, why isn't showing the top of my skin on my chest?' She added that breflies are a way for women to celebrate their bodies and what they can do. However, Angela Epstein, 46, from Manchester, disagreed. She appeared on the ITV show alongside Emma to argue the case against brelfies. She said: ‘This whole cult of the breflie smacks of naked exhibitionism.’ While Angela said she supports breastfeeding, she thinks the trend for sharing pictures is 'attention-seeking and using kids as a commodity, parading them around saying \"isn't it great I can breastfeed\" and rubbing it in the face of women who can't.' Mothers Emma Taylor, right, and Angela Epstein appeared on today's This Morning to debate the new trend for posting breastfeeding selfies aka 'brelfies' Emma, left, has posted pictures of herself breastfeeding online and says it celebrates what women's bodies can do. But Angela, right, think it should remain a private, bonding moment between mother and baby . The growing trend has seen one in five breastfeeding mothers (19 per cent) already take their own brelfie, with a further six per cent of new mothers claiming they plan to. They are following the lead of celebrities such as Miranda Kerr, Gisele Bundchen and Gwen Stefani who have all posted their own brelfies online. The craze was identified as part of the annual Netmums' Parenting Trends Report which predicts the ten key parenting fashions for the forthcoming year. But Angela argued on the programme, that many women who share brelfies are 'deliberately militant in their approach' as if they are saying 'I can breastfeed and if you don't like seeing it, that's your problem'. Angela believes mothers should not be 'flaunting' themselves online breastfeeding because 'certain things are private, I endorse breastfeeding but it's an intimate, private, bonding moment, just you and your baby.' But Angela's views weren't supported by all This Morning viewers as many sent their own brelfies into the show. A poll carried out by the programme found that 68.53 per cent would post a brelfie online. Ellie, pictured feeding her daughter, has set up a Facebook page so other mothers can share their pictures and experiences of breastfeeding and gain support and advice . Another advocate of the trend is mother-of-four Ellie Gordon, 34, from Hertford, who has a 14-week-old daughter Bluebelle Beatrice as well as Lily-Grace, nine, Ronnie, seven, and Reuben, five. She's so passionate about the subject she has even set up her own Facebook group 'Pump In Public' to support breastfeeding mothers. Other parenting fads of 2015 identified by Netmums include post-baby body nude photoshoots, where women book a professional photographer to capture their figures just days after giving birth. The report revealed one in seven new mothers now think the photoshoots are a positive idea, claiming stretch marks and baby weight ‘celebrated them becoming a mum’. But one in 12 mums said they would only have a post-pregnancy photoshoot if they got their bodies back into shape. Pregnancy Test ‘Pee Parties’ - which see women trying to fall pregnant take their pregnancy test with a group of friends or family members - are also on the rise. Popular in America where the parties are often filmed for YouTube, the trend is starting to take off in the UK with one in 25 mums saying they had held one and a further 14 per cent admitting they would consider it. Miranda Kerr shared this picture of her breastfeeding son Flynn after he was born in 2011, now more new mothers are following suit . Gwen Stefani shared this picture on Instagram of herself breastfeeding her five-month-old son Apollo during a roadside stop in Switzerland in July 2014 . Gisele Bundchen posted this photo of herself breastfeeding her daughter as she had her hair and makeup done before a photo shoot in 2013 . Jaime King shared this intimate photo of her breastfeeding eight-month-old son James in 2014 . Despite improving economic conditions, 'Family No-Spend Days' are one of the year's most popular trends. Over two thirds (68 per cent) of families now follow the craze which bans spending in any form for one day a week or each month. While 29 per cent of mums quizzed said they only held the days when money was tight, for 39 per cent of families they are a regular occurrence to teach children the value of money. And following the increasing use of foodbanks, Toybanks are also becoming more popular this year. The service, which offers toys to low-income and struggling families, is opening in locations around the UK with 54 per cent of parents saying they would use it if the need arose. However, one trend parents want to say goodbye to in 2015 is the Double-Barrelled First Name. Girls monikers including Georgia-May, Ellie-Rae and Lily-Rose were voted the most likely naming trend to disappear this year, with 69 per cent of parents saying they would ditch a double-barrelled name. Another American idea catching on in the UK is Baby Growth Photocards, where parents take monthly or weekly photos of their child against the same background object to show their growth. Some have even been edited into timelapse videos for YouTube, with almost half (46 per cent) of parents saying they are now keeping a regular photographic record of their child’s growth. Actress Alyssa Milano posted this picture of herself breastfeeding to Instagram in October 2014 . According to a Netmums poll, 88 per cent of mothers who say social media sites are wrong to delete breastfeeding selfies . Meanwhile after the success of smash-hit film Frozen, parents are wishing their children would 'Let It Go' – but Disney Princesses are one of the year’s most prominent trends. But possibly the most controversial trend of the year is 'Pay-ground Parties'. First highlighted in the media by a mother invoicing another parent over a no-show at a birthday party, then escalated by TV presenter Myleene Klass after she was asked to club together with other parents to buy birthday presents for two pupils at her daughters’ school, mums are feeling under pressure to pay up much more than they are comfortable with for parties and presents. Like Myleene, one in eight said they had been asked to contribute towards a bigger present for a child, but 53 per cent felt the request was 'inappropriate and cheeky'. Meanwhile one in 11 mums would now consider invoicing parents whose child did not turn up for a party they arranged. Commenting on the Annual Trends Report, Netmums spokeswoman Rachel Burrows said: 'Parents are more plugged into social media than ever before, so many of this year's trends are all about sharing. 'From pregnancy parties and baby growth photos, to posting Brelfies and post-baby body shoots, mums are openly showing some of the most intimate moments of their lives in a way that would have been impossible just a few years ago. 'While some people may see it as oversharing, it's actually very comforting to know others are going through the same situations. 'And trends like the return to retro parties, toybanks and no-spend days show mums are setting a sensible example to their children. 'Though the last few years have been tough for most families, parents are still ensuring their kids have the best childhood they can, however tight their family finances are.'" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Breastfeeding selfies top new Netmums parenting trends report .\nOne in five breastfeeding mothers will share a 'brelfie'\nFollowing lead of celebrities such as Miranda Kerr and Gisele Bundchen .\nBrelfie fan Emma Taylor and mother Angela Epstein debated on ITV show .\nAmerican trend Pregnancy test 'pee parties' are also on rise ." } ]

Whoever you support, whichever league your club are in, no matter how much or little you have spent to be there, it still feels the same when you win. Football has changed in many ways, both in the way it is played and the way it is watched. Few football clubs embody that more than Manchester City.

Special day: Fans storm the pitch following Man City's 2-0 victory over West Ham clinched the title . Special day: Man City fans showed their is much more to the club than just big bucks and foreign stars . The new Barclays Premier League champions are a very different club than the one flooded by money from the Middle East less than six years ago. Some things remain the same, though, and winning feels the same now as it did before celebrations were expressed on Twitter and Facebook and before clubs had a ‘Season Finale Sponsor’, as City did here on Sunday. It was Dubai Expo 2020 if you are interested. FA chairman Greg Dyke suggested in print that the number of foreign players at City depressed him, as if the make-up of Manuel Pellegrini’s team somehow devalued the achievement. The old couple in the aisle seats yesterday are unlikely to agree. In all likelihood, they had season tickets at the old Maine Road, too. They will love their club now just as much as they did back then. Maybe even a little more. They, like many, have waited more than 40 years for their turn at the top to roll round again. A little over a decade ago they watched Andy Morrison and Kevin Horlock. These days it is Vincent Kompany and Yaya Toure wearing those shirts. They have always embraced players from overseas at City, though. Georgi Kinkladze was here on Sunday, as was Shaun Goater. They are very much part of this club’s heritage. These days they just have better players with whom to share a dressing room and those players have arrived at great cost.

There will be those in the football community enjoying City’s current tussle with UEFA over Financial Fair Play. It’s easy to label the champions as a heavy-spending club driven forwards at unnatural speed by foreign money. To tag City so clumsily, though, is to miss the point. Football clubs remain, more than anything, about the people who go to watch them and those who rushed on to the playing surface at full-time are no different, on the whole, to those who follow Barnet or Bristol Rovers or Birmingham City. Most of them will spend an inordinate amount of time watching, discussing and worrying about their team. Their team will dominate their conversations at home, at work, in the pub and on Greek Island beaches this summer. City care about their relatively small English numbers. They care about it in the boardroom and the dressing room. No club cares more about the make-up of its squad than it does about results, though. That is especially the case when the team plays football like this City one can. Pellegrini’s team have not been at their best for a while now. They have been functional rather than devastating. There is something to be said for that - just ask Liverpool - and it has been enough to get them through. They remain supremely gifted.

On Sunday, towards the end of this one-sided game, West Ham’s Andy Carroll - a candidate for a place in England’s World Cup squad - attempted to control a ball at the far post. He failed dreadfully and the ball bounced behind the goal. Minutes later, City’s Brazilian substitute Fernandinho received a sharp pass with his back to goal. He controlled it instantly on the half volley, turned and - in the same movement - moved the ball onwards to a team-mate. It would be wrong to suggest an English player couldn’t have done that. It would also be wrong, however, to suggest players like Fernandinho, Toure and Kompany have not contributed to the raising of standards in the Premier League. At City we can expect only that the standard will get higher over the years. The club will have some players to replace before long. Toure, for example, cannot go on at this rampaging level for ever. City’s current issue with UEFA over FFP - they have been fined £50m for breaching the regulations - will not affect their spending plans significantly over the summers to come. Forward thinking: City will soon have some players to replace as the likes of Yaya Toure can't go on forever . They are unlikely to go backwards again - as they did last season under Roberto Mancini - with Pellegrini in charge and it will be interesting now to see if their rivals can spend astutely enough to close the gap. This was a rather gentle party yesterday. Certainly it was by the standards of 2012’s heart-stopping finale. Back then it felt like a dam was breaking. Winning still feels like winning, though, and at the end yesterday a man carried his young son away from the ground. If Dyke is depressed about the make-up of his team, that guy wasn’t. Looking at his son, he said: ‘He doesn’t know how lucky he is. He thinks this happens every year.’" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Manchester City claim Premier League title with win over West Ham .\nClub embodies how football has changed in the way it is played and watched .\nFA Chairman Greg Dyke had said number of foreign players in City squad depressed him ." } ]

Because that's when plasma physicist Dr John Brandenburg will present his theory that an ancient civilisation on Mars was wiped out by a nuclear attack from another alien race. In his bizarre theory, Dr Brandenburg says ancient Martians known as Cydonians and Utopians were massacred in the attack - and evidence of the genocide can still be seen today. Scroll down for video . A scientist is to present his theory that ancient life on Mars was massacred. Dr Brandenburg is giving a talk on his research tomorrow in Illinois at the American Physical Society. He says there is evidence for two nuclear explosions on Mars (image from his paper shown) Back in 2011 the scientist first postulated that the red colour on Mars could have been due to a naturally occurring thermonuclear explosion. 'The Martian surface is covered with a thin layer of radioactive substances including uranium, thorium and radioactive potassium - and this pattern radiates from a hot spot on Mars,' he told Fox News at the time. 'A nuclear explosion could have sent debris all around the planet.' Aside from this outlandish theory, Dr John Brandenburg has led a rather more normal, and prestigious, career. He has a PhD in Theoretical Plasma Physics from the University of California at Davis. Currently he works as a plasma physicist at Orbital Technologies in Madison Wisconsin. He has worked on a variety of propulsion technologies and previously was an independent consultant on Space Missile Defense and Directed Energy Weapons. Dr Brandenburg has authored a number of books with his latest, Death on Mars: The Discovery of a Planetary Nuclear Massacre, to be published in February 2015. But since then he has advanced his theory to the level that he now no longer thinks it was a naturally occurring explosion - but rather one planned by an intelligent alien race. According to Vice, the conclusion of his latest paper says that nuclear isotopes in the atmosphere resembling hydrogen bomb tests 'may present an example of civilisation wiped out by a nuclear attack from space.' His research centres around the 'high concentration' of Xenon-129 in the Martian atmosphere, and uranium and thorium on the surface, spotted by Nasa's Mars Odyssey spacecraft. Scientists have previously pointed about that the appearance of these elements is not surprising, as they are natural elements found everywhere. But Dr Brandenburg is adamant they are the remnants of two nuclear explosions on the surface. He will lay out his research tomorrow in his talk titled 'Evidence of Massive Thermonuclear Explosions in Mars Past, The Cydonian Hypothesis, and Fermi's Paradox'. And he is also apparently set to have a paper published in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics. Dr Brandenburg says evidence for the explosions exists near two sites that apparently had life in the past, including Cydonia, the location of the famous 'face on Mars' spotted from orbit (left). However, later images showed it was just a chance alignment of shifting dust dunes (right) Back in 2011 the scientist first postulated that the red colour on Mars (pictured) could have been due to a naturally occurring thermonuclear explosion - but now he thinks it was caused by an intelligent alien race . He says Mars once had an Earth-like climate home to animal and plant life, and any intelligent life would have been about as advanced as the ancient Egyptians on Earth. This is based on his analysis of two regions, one being Cydonia, where the infamous - and later discredited - 'face on Mars' was found. This, according to Dr Brandenburg, is an artefact from the ancient alien race. Here, one of the supposed nuclear explosions wiped out the civilisation at Cydonia Mensa and another, smaller one destroyed a civilisation at a region called Galaxias Chaos. 'Analysis of new images from Odyssey, MRO and Mars Express orbiters now show strong evidence of eroded archeological objects at these sites,' he writes in the abstract for his research to be presented tomorrow. 'Taken together, the data requires that the hypothesis of Mars as the site of an ancient planetary nuclear massacre, must now be considered.' Dr Brandenburg says Mars once had an Earth-like climate home to animal and plant life, and any intelligent life would have been about as advanced as the ancient Egyptians on Earth . Dr Brandenburg says his theory could explain the Fermi Paradox - namely why, if the universe is abundant with life, we haven't heard anything from anyone else yet. He warns, though, that we need to be fearful of an attack on our own planet, and should mount a manned mission to Mars to know what we're up against. 'Providentially, we are forewarned of this possible aspect of the cosmos,' he writes. 'The author therefore advocates that a human mission to Mars is mounted immediately to maximise knowledge of what occurred.' UFO expert Nigel Watson, author of the Haynes UFO Investigation Manual, told MailOnline that Dr Brandenburg is not the first to suggest Mars was 'murdered' by nuclear explosions. 'These stories and many variations of them present a view that our Solar System was the home of several nuclear battles raged between alien visitors and settlers,' he said. 'Much of the evidence is either channeled through automatic writing, psychic messages or the interpretation of ancient texts. 'Although Brandenburg's theory is on more solid ground, it still amounts to speculation based on our present day awareness of the power of nuclear weapons and our fear of its misuse. 'It is a warning that we could do the same to our own planet, and underlines the belief of many scientists that we have not detected intelligent life elsewhere in the universe because at some point civilisations will become extinct either through catastrophe or self-destruction.'" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Scientist is to present his theory that ancient life on Mars was massacred .\nDr Brandenburg is giving a talk on his research tomorrow in Illinois .\nHe says there is evidence for two nuclear explosions on Mars .\nThese apparently wiped out two races - the Cydonians and Utopians .\nDetection of uranium and thorium on the surface is evidence for these past explosions, he claims .\nAnd he warns we should be wary of a similar attack on Earth ." } ]

And when Fernandinho netted an opener, Jeff Stelling tee’d up Nicholas to describe the action, who said: ‘Goal! Is it Fernandinho or is it Fernando? They both look the same to me.’ Charlie Nicholas apologised for the comments on Sky Sports News .

Gillian Hendry and Craig Dick, both 34, kept the youngster and his sister, two, in a fly-infested house littered with nappies and old food. The boy lost sight in his left eye from cataracts because they failed to take him for hospital appointments that could have saved his sight. Gillian Hendry and Craig Dick, both 34, were jailed for a total of five years at Teesside Crown Court for child neglect after their son went blind in one eye . The boy, 12, and his half-sister, two, were kept in filthy conditions. The parents failed to take the boy to hospital appointments that could have saved his sight, and failed to treat his arthritis so he was left with a limp . He also became increasingly crippled with a form of juvenile arthritis until his doctors called in social services chiefs so they could give him the treatment he so desperately needed. When social workers went to the house in Thornaby, Stockton-on-Tees in August last year the couple would not let them inside. They returned with the police who were shocked by what they found, prosecutor David Crook told Teesside Crown Court. The couple, who were living on benefits, were unkempt and the boy said that he could not see out of one eye, which had turned white from a cataract. They claimed they were too busy to notice the boy’s plight. The judge was shown photographs that showed the house in an ‘appalling’ state of filth and mess. The staircase was littered with trodden-in food and bin bags stuffed with dirty nappies. The kitchen was infested with flies, and upstairs had a squalid toilet and a bath that was filled with cold, dirty water. One bedroom had been used as a toilet, and the children’s beds had no covers and filthy mattresses – which had turned damp and mouldy in the girl’s cot. By contrast, the couple’s bedroom was relatively tidy – although they said that they slept downstairs. The court heard that one bedroom was used as a toilet while the bathroom was strewn with litter and the toilet and sink were filthy . Social services were alerted to the couple by doctors who became concerned for the boy's health. When police forced their way into the house they found Hendry and Dick trying to clean up . The children were immediately taken into care. The boy now lives with his natural father, and the girl, who was fathered by Dick, is being put up for adoption. Lawyers for the couple said they were unlikely to have responsibility for any children again. Peter Wishlade, defending Hendry, said she ‘let everything slip’ because she claimed to be depressed. He said: ‘Other than that, I don’t know how this has happened, I cannot give any explanation.’ Jim Withyman, defending Dick, said he was a man who could not even take care of his own personal hygiene. He added: ‘There is a deficiency in him by allowing his children to live in such appalling conditions.’ Judge Howard Crowson, who earlier lifted court restrictions that would have made naming the couple impossible, told them: ‘The conditions we have seen in the photographs are appalling. ‘I feel this was inadequacy rather than a deliberate attempt to cause harm to either child.’ Hendry was jailed for two-and-a-half years and Dick for two years and two months after they admitted two charges of child neglect. The court heard that the parents' bedroom was kept in a better condition than the rest of the house (pictured) though they claimed they never slept there . Officers found bin bags strewn around the house filled with rotting food and used nappies . The court heard that the little girl's mattress was covered with mould while her room was also filthy . The kitchen was filled with flies (left) while the upstairs landing was covered with bin bags and dirty clothes . The bath tub was filled with cold, dirty water, while the sink was filled with rubbish and the toilet was unclean .

Sansha City is on Yongxing Island, less than a square mile in size and not big enough to accommodate its own airstrip - which extends into the sea either side. It has a small permanent population of fishermen - the rest of its 1,000 residents are police, soldiers and government workers who work on the island in 'tours of duty'. Scroll down for video . Establishment ceremony: Soldiers raise the national flag during a party introducing Sansha City on the island of Yongxing yesterday . There are few 'civilian' buildings - a supermarket here, a hospital there - and fresh water has to be shipped in from China's southernmost province in a 13-hour supply mission. But China is clearly proud of its new addition, and made a point that the world knew of its arrival. Unlike most birthday parties, though, the neighbours were not invited. That is because Sansha City represents China's expanding toehold in the world's most disputed waters, portions of which are also claimed by Vietnam, the Philippines and Taiwan. Flying high: The Chinese flag flutters above a government building in Sansha City. It is one of the few buildings on the island, which is less than a square mile . Disputed region: The tiny Yongxing Island, which is too small to accommodate its own runway, lies around 220 miles from mainland China in the middle of the South China Sea . Beijing has created the city administration to oversee hundreds of thousands of square miles of water where it wants to strengthen its control. The Philippines said it does not recognise the city or its jurisdiction, and Vietnam said China's actions violated international law. The U.S. has also voiced its concern over 'unilateral moves' in the South China Sea, where it says collective diplomacy is needed to resolve competing claims. Yongxing Island, formerly Woody Island, is 220 miles southeast from China's tropical Hainan Island. Proud moment: Fu Zhuang, the new mayor of Sansha City, will prteside over a band of local fishermen and a largely transient population of soldiers and government workers . Even the name of the island is disputed among its neighbours - Vietnam refers to it as Phu Lam Island. China approved Sansha City to 'consolidate administration' over the Paracel island chain, of which Yongxing is a part, and the nearby Spratly island chain and the Macclesfield Bank - a large, completely submerged atoll that boasts rich fishing grounds that is also claimed by Taiwan and the Philippines. Vietnam and China both claim the Paracels, and both would have to slug it out with the Philippines, Malaysia, Brunei and Taiwan to claim all or parts of the Spratlys. China claims virtually the entire South China Sea and its island groups, and its disputes occasionally erupt into open confrontation. And it's not just for the good fishing. The sea is one of the world's busiest commercial shipping lanes, and sits on a potential mother load of oil and gas deposits. Official broadcaster China Central Television aired Tuesday morning's formal establishment ceremony live from Sansha, with speeches from the new mayor and other officials. Plaques for the Sansha Municipal Government and the Sansha Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China were unveiled on a white-columned government building. Mayor Xiao Jie trumpeted Sansha's important role in protecting China's sovereignty. He said the designation of Sansha as a new city was 'a wise decision made by the party and the government of China to protect the sovereign rights of China, and to strengthen the protection and the development of natural resources'. The official Xinhua News Agency reported earlier that Sansha's jurisdiction covers just five square miles of land, including other islands and atolls in the South China Sea around Yongxing. Crucially, the jurisdiction also covers more than 750,000 square miles of surrounding waters. A few buildings... and little else: There are few 'civilian' buildings - a supermarket here, a hospital there - and fresh water has to be shipped in from China's southernmost province in a 13-hour supply mission . Harsh and isolated: A former army officer overseeing the island before Sansha City was established described it as 'pretty simple', hot and humid with no fresh water . Communications array: Despite the isolation, it is clear that China sees the strategic importance of Yongxing - a fact that has not been lost on neighbours Vietnam, the Philippines and Taiwan . Angry neighbours: Protesters hold banners during an anti-China protest at the weekend. The banner reads, 'Paracels and Spratlys belong to Vietnam' - a reference to the island chains of which Yongxing is a part . Yongxing translates to 'eternal prosperity', and Sansha means 'three sandbanks' - an apparent reference to the Chinese names for the disputed island chains and atoll - West, South and Middle Banks (or Xisha, Nansha and Zhongsha). A description from a former People's Liberation Army officer who was among the officials overseeing the island before Sansha was established paints a picture of a harsh and isolated post where officials rotate staffing for a month at a time. Tan Xiankun, director of the office in Hainan overseeing Xisha and other South China Sea territories, said: 'The living conditions are pretty simple. It's very humid and hot, more than 30 degrees, and there's salt everywhere. There's no fresh water, except for what's shipped in and what's collected from rain water.' Philippines Department of Foreign Affairs spokesman Raul Hernandez said Manila had expressed its concern and registered a strong protest with Beijing over the decision to set up a military garrison on Yongxing. He said: 'The Philippines does not recognise the Sansha City and the extent of its jurisdiction, and considers recent measures taken by China as unacceptable. Vietnam's Foreign Ministry spokesman, Luong Thanh Nghi, said Vietnam had protested to the Chinese foreign ministry as well. A statement said: 'China's establishment of the so-called Sansha City violated international law, seriously violating Vietnam sovereignty over the Paracel and Spratly archipelagos.' And U.S. State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said: 'We remain concerned should there be any unilateral moves of this kind that would seem to prejudge an issue that we have said repeatedly can only be solved by negotiations, by dialogue and by a collaborative diplomatic process among all the claimants.' As China was celebrating its new city, the International Crisis Group think tank released a report saying that the south China Sea was becoming an arena that could easily see armed conflict. Its report stated: 'South East Asian claimants, with Vietnam and the Philippines in the forefront, are now more forcefully defending their claims - and enlisting outside allies - with considerable energy.' The 'outside allies' is a clear reference to Washington's move to influence the Asian balance of power by supporting China's neighbours. The report ominously concluded that 'tensions in the South China Sea could all too easily be driven to irreversible levels'.

Maybe it was a good draw but I can not forget about the first half, we had too many clear opportunities.’ City’s lack of accuracy did not seem to matter when Fernandinho headed in from close range after Silva’s shot had been parried by keeper Joel Robles. But Everton, belying a side that had lost their last four league games, deservedly levelled when Steven Naismith got in ahead of City skipper Joe Hart to head in a Leighton Baines free-kick. It was a 45th Premier League assist for Baines, a new record for a defender, and confirmed Naismith’s reputation as a scorer against the top teams. He has now netted against Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United and City. Spanish playmaker David Silva run at the Everton defense during the Premier League game on Saturday afternoon .

Ross Barkley skips pat the challenge from Manchester City midfielder Fernandinho at Goodison Park . Pablo Zableta goes down injured holding his leg but Gareth Barry protests his innocence to the referee . The rain swept down on Goodison Park during a dark January day on Merseyside . ‘It was an old-fashioned game,’ said Everton boss Roberto Martinez, after a match played in high winds and heavy rain. ‘We allowed Manchester City too much space in the first half but showed a lot of character and grit after we went behind.’ By the end, nobody could have knocked Everton for gaining a point. The better chances fell to them, mainly because Romelu Lukaku made £32 m defender Eliaquim Mangala look like a park player. Lukaku sprinted past Mangala in the first-half and forced a wonderful one-handed save from Hart, and Mangala later climbed all over Phil Jagielka as they contested a corner. ‘I’ve seen them given,’ said Martinez. Despite City’s recent form, the club had suffered a torrid week after having to admit they had misled people over the terms of Lampard’s spell at the club. It seems the former England midfielder had signed a 12-month contract with City even though it was believed he was on loan from Sheik Mansour’s other club in the MLS, New York. Here, though, it was Silva who set up the chances, only for his team-mates to miss. Jovetic, most vulnerable to Bony’s arrival, fired high over Robles’ goal after an incisive pass from his Spanish team-mate put him through. Navas did not do much better, scuffing an untidy finish wide from eight yards. Jagielka then had to stretch to block a Silva shot and after Jovetic had done the difficult work by dribbling past Mo Besic, he failed to convert the finish. Samir Nasri then took a heavy touch when put through by Silva, and even Silva did the same when set up by Navas. Stevan Jovetc had a good chance to put City in front in the first half as he looked to shine in Sergio Aguero's absence . Romelu Lukaku was denied by a Joe Hart's legs when he raced through down the right in the first half . Three City players (Fernandinho, Jesus Navas and Pablo Zabaleta) attempt to track down Ross Barkley . Everton were all at sea, with Aiden McGeady given catcalls from home fans, but whenever Lukaku got one-on-one with Mangala, Everton posed a real threat. The Belgian was denied at the near post by Hart ,with Seamus Coleman hitting the bar on the rebound. Yet Aguero’s introduction — unsurprisingly replacing Jovetic — seemed to inspire Everton. They had a goal disallowed when Jagielka tapped in after an offside Naismith had challenged Hart. But City then scored in a move started with some brilliant defensive work from Pablo Zabaleta. City burst up the right-hand side and when Nasri switched the ball inside to Silva, the Spaniard had a shot that looped up from Robles into the path of Fernandinho who headed in the 74th minute. Yet Everton showed tremendous character and bounced back to level just four minutes later. Once again, it was the left foot of Baines that created the danger. He curled in a free-kick following a foul by Zabaleta and Naismith timed his run to perfection to get in front of the City defence and ahead of Hart to head in before the England goalkeeper could punch the ball away. Pellegrini sent on Lampard for the final eight minutes and he got some pantomime boos from an increasingly involved Goodison crowd. This time, though, there was no fairy-tale ending for him, or City.

Hiding his face with a hoodie and scarf, a man who claimed to be the brother of squatter Maksym Pashanin answered the door of the home in a gated community in Palm Springs. Videogame programmer Maksym is currently locked in a legal battle with Airbnb host Cory Tschogl, 39, who initially agreed to rent him her property for 44 days from May 25 to July 8. But now he refuses to leave. Hooded: A man claiming to be the brother of Airbnb renter Maksym Pashanin answers the door to San Bernadino County process server Sean Dacy - who left without handing over the eviction notice . 'Horror story': Pashanin is locked in the legal battle that could last for months and cost $5,000 because under California law he cannot just be kicked out for not paying his rent or overstaying his welcome . What Cory didn't realise is that under Californian law once someone has rented a property for more than 30 days they are treated as a tenant on a month-by-month lease. To get him out she now has to go through a legal process that could take between three and six months and cost between $3,000 and $5,000. In that time Maksym and his brother can continue to live rent-free. And the brothers don't seem to be giving up easily. San Bernadino County process server Sean Dacy arrived yesterday to serve Maksym with an eviction notice. Dacy couldn't serve the papers because he has to hand them to Maksym personally but the man answering the door claimed to be his brother. Instead, the man complained to Dacy: 'I can’t [take the scarf off] because these guys [the press] have been harassing me all day. I can’t even get to MY secure mailbox.' Dacy wasn't convinced. 'If he’s covering his face, that's probably him,’ he said as he walked away. After paying his initial 30 days rent, Maksym has not made any further payments, and ignored repeated requests to vacate the property by both Airbnb and Cory. Shortly after moving into the home, located on the Western side of the upmarket desert community, Maksym told Cory his brother had fallen ill from drinking the tap water and was now suffering a stomach ulcer. He demanded a refund. Cory, who lives in San Francisco and works as a therapist for blind people, was also met with an angry response when she threatened to cut off the utilities. Maksym texted her: 'Hi Cory, this is Maksym. I have consulted my attorney. As I said multiple times I am LEGALLY occupying the domicile. My nature of work from home is dependent on electricity, and my income while working averages $1,000 to $7,000 per day, involving over 2000 customers in the US alone. IF THE ELECTRICITY GETS CUT OFF I WILL BE LOSING MONEY EVERY DAY. 'I am pressing charges for blackmail and damages caused by your negligence and misconduct, including $3,800 PID Espresso machine as well as medical bills for my brother’s hospital visit after he got sick here drinking unfiltered tap water (ulcer). 'Not only what you do is illegal, it is also discriminatory in nature and had (sic) cause me and my brother a lot of stress and suffering.' Cory told the San Francisco Chronicle that the episode has been a 'horror story'. She bought the one-bedroom condo 18 months ago and she charged around $450 a week to renters. Squatter: Maksym Pashanin (seen here promoting his videogame) first complained to Cory that his brother had fallen ill from the water. Then when she threatened to turn off the utilities he said he had contacted a lawyer . When it became clear that Maksym was turning into a nightmare tenant Cory complained to Airbnb, but was angry at the response from the company. 'They were almost absent,' she said. 'There was no phone number or direct contact e-mail. I got e-mail responses only every 24 to 48 hours.' Airbnb eventually paid her the two weeks' missing rent and offered to pay for Maksym, who had a 'verified ID' with Airbnb saying he is from Austin, Texas, to stay at a hotel for 30 days. But he never answered emails and his phone was disconnected. Airbnb has since apologised and spokesman Nick Papas said: . 'Officials from our team have contacted this host and she has been paid . the full cost of the reservation and we're working with her to provide . additional legal support as we move forward. 'We're . also reviewing our procedures and making changes to our platform to . give hosts more information about long-term reservations.' Maksym was identified by KESQ.COM as a videogame programmer who created a computer game called Confederate Express. Maksym used kickstarter to raise $40,000 to fund the game but after eight months he has delivered nothing beyond a demo. KESQ said Maksym has claimed that the game will be released, but has said he has made some bad business decisions. The case echoes that of 'nightmare nanny' Diane Stretton, who moved in to work for Marcella Bracamonte and her family in Upland, California, earlier this year but quickly gave up all duties, and refused to leave despite being fired. Apology: Airbnb came under fire from the condo's . owner Cory Tschogl for not helping her quickly enough at first. The . firm has now apologised, paid her rent she was due and offered to help . with the legal fees involved . Mrs Bracamonte, 31, and her husband, Ralph, hired Stretton on March 4 using Craigslist to help with their three children, ages 11, four and one, but Stretton quickly stopped doing any work, claiming she had chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. She also reportedly threatened to sue the family for wrongful dismissal and abuse of the elderly. Although the police were contacted they said there was nothing they could do, as it was a civil matter. After negotiations with the family she was thought to have left at the beginning of July. Attorney Robert Spitz told ABC News that the landlord tenant law in California is very specific in terms of eviction processes. 'If the guy's a deadbeat, what does he care? He paid one month and he gets three months,' Spitz added." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Cory Tschogl, 39, locked in 'horror story' after squatter who rented her Palm Springs home is refusing to leave .\nUnder California law Maksym Pashanin is treated as a month-to-month tenant so a legal process to evict him will take up to six months and cost thousands of dollars .\nA man claiming to be his brother yesterday said he was 'harassed' as a process server came to hand Maksym eviction notice .\nAirbnb apologised for not dealing with the nightmare quick enough, have offered to pay Cory's legal fees and refunded her the unpaid rent ." } ]

Scroll down for video . Mind control has reached new heights after a group of pilots were able to successfully fly a plane using nothing but their thoughts. German scientists showed how seven pilots – some with no previous experience of flying – used mind control to fly with ‘astonishing accuracy' Under the EU-funded project ‘Brainflight’ project, scientists hooked participants up to a cap containing dozens of electroencephalography (EEG) electrodes. Researchers at the Technical University of Munich and the Technical University of Berlin then sat them down in a flight simulator and told them to steer the plane using just their thoughts . The cap was able to read the electrical signals from their brains and a specially-formulated algorithm then converted those signals into computer commands. In a simulation, several of the pilots managed the landing approach under poor visibility, while one was able to land a few metres from the runway’s central line. However, one problem with the system is lack of feedback . Seven people underwent the experiment and all were able to use mind control to control the plane well enough to meet some of the criteria for getting a pilot's license. The human brain is made up of billions of active neurons that have around 105,600 miles (170,000 km) of combined length. Every time you have a thought, your brain produces weak but distinct electrical signals corresponding to it. The electrical impulse is generated by the chemical reaction between neurons, which can be measured. Recording and deciphering those signals is called electroencephalography (EEG), and it has been medically possible since 1924. ‘A long-term vision of the project is to make flying accessible to more people,’ said aerospace engineer Tim Fricke, who heads the project at the Technical University of Munich. ‘With brain control, flying, in itself, could become easier. This would reduce the work load of pilots and thereby increase safety. ‘In addition, pilots would have more freedom of movement to manage other manual tasks in the cockpit.’ Our brain is made up of billions of active neurons, around 105,600 miles (170,000 km) of combined axon length. When these neurons interact, the chemical reaction emits an electrical impulse, which can be measured using EEG. One of the problems with the system is lack of feedback. Normally, pilots feel resistance in steering and have to exert significant force when the loads on the aircraft become too large. Under the EU-funded project ‘Brainflight’ project, scientists hooked participants up to a cap containing dozens of electroencephalography electrodes (left). The right image shows the computer display used in the simulation to help the pilots guide the plane to safety . This feedback is missing when using brain control. The researchers are now hoping to find alternative methods to simulate the process. But this isn’t the first time mind control has been used to fly an object. Last year a remote controlled helicopter was flown through a series of hoops using the power of the human mind. The feat was achieved by U.S. researchers who are hoping to develop future robots that can help restore the independence of paralysed victims and those suffering from neurodegenerative disorders. According to Professor Bin He, from the University of Minnesota, the achievement in 2013 was the first time that humans have been able to control the flight of flying robots using just their thoughts. ‘A long-term vision of the project is to make flying accessible to more people,’ said aerospace engineer Tim Fricke, who heads the project at the Technical University of Munich.‘With brain control, flying, in itself, could become easier.

Professor Francesco Leri of the University of Guelph, who carried out the research, said it suggested there was an addictive quality to foods that contain high levels of high-fructose corn syrup which could explain, at least partly, the current global obesity epidemic. During the experiment, rats were fed foods containing varying levels of high-fructose corn syrup. They were then given access to a lever which controlled how much syrup they received. The more concentrated the syrup, the harder the rats worked to obtain it. Sweet temptation: New research has found that high-fructose corn syrup has similar effects on the brain as addictive drugs like cocaine . 'We have evidence in laboratory animals of a shared vulnerability to . develop preferences for sweet foods and for cocaine,' said Professor Leri, an addiction expert. 'There is now convincing neurobiological and behavioural evidence indicating that addiction to food is possible.' Professor Leri believes vulnerability to addiction could explain why some people are obese and some aren't, despite the widespread availability of high-fructose corn syrup. Ubiquitous: Corn products can be found in every element of a fast food meal, and high-fructose corn syrup is one of the main ingredients in everything from burger buns and sauces to soft drinks . The new findings are part of a growing field of investigation into the effects of high fructose corn syrup, which has been blamed for everything from the obesity epidemic to diabetes and liver disease. Research from Princeton University in 2010 found that rats fed on a sugary diet became nervous and anxious when the sugar was removed. They were thrown into a state of anxiety similar to the kind of stress that people feel during withdrawal from drugs like nicotine and even morphine. Professor Bart Hoebel and his team in the Department of Psychology and the Princeton Neuroscience Institute have been studying signs of sugar addiction in rats for years. Fat rats: Recent research shows that high-fructose corn syrup is highly addictive to rats . 'If bingeing on sugar is really a form of addiction, there should be long-lasting effects in the brains of sugar addicts,' Hoebel said. 'Craving and relapse are critical components of addiction, and we have been able to demonstrate these behaviors in sugar-bingeing rats in a number of ways.' The process: The USDA says that processed foods are the main source sugar in our diets - but that many food producers are reluctant to reveal just how much high-fructose corn syrup their products contain . Journalist and author Michael Pollan says that cheap industrial corn is such a huge crop in America that you're likely to find it in every section of the supermarket, not to mention every item in a fast food meal. 'Corn is the sweetener in the soda. It's in the corn-fed beef Big Mac patty, and in the high-fructose syrup in the bun, and in the secret sauce,' wrote Pollan in the New York Times Magazine. High fructose corn syrup was discovered in the 1950s, but it wasn't until the '70s that it became widely used. Excess: The U.S. government subsidizes corn farms - meaning there's huge quantities of excess corn being produced which is used for everything from cattle feed to ethanol to the addictive high-fructose corn syrup . The gloopy syrup is made from surplus corn crops, and can be found in sweet foods such as donuts, chocolate bars and soda. The danger lies in the places you don't expect to find it: loaves of bread, pizza, meat, savory snacks and salad dressing. Former head of the FDA David Kessler believes that sugar is extremely addictive, just like cigarettes or alcohol. He told the Guardian in 2012 that eating sugar it is 'highly pleasurable. It gives you this momentary bliss. When you're eating food that is highly hedonic, it sort of takes over your brain.' We all know that sweet confectionery and soft drinks are full of high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS), but could we be feeding our addictions with other foods and not knowing it? Here are some unexpected supermarket products that are full of high fructose corn syrup.

While Ronaldo has been scoring for fun with seven goals in his last two Madrid matches, it has been a very different story for Benzema who has just two from eight games so far. 'Benzema is fine and he has a lot of ability,' said Ancelotti ahead of his side's La Liga game at Villarreal on Saturday. Karim Benzema must score goals on a regular basis if he wants to remain in Real Madrid's starting line-up . The Frenchman has been told by his manager to not compare his goalscoring record to Cristiano Ronaldo's . Ronaldo has been on fire for Real Madrid - scoring 10 goals in his last five games for his club . Benzema, pictured in training, has scored two goals in eight games for Real Madrid so far this season . 'He needs to work as he always has done and not feel any pressure about scoring. There is no need for him to worry that Cristiano has scored four goals. The only thing that he needs to think about is helping the team to play better and give solutions in attack.' Benzema failed to score in the 8-2 destruction of Deportivo La Coruna last weekend when Ronaldo hit a hat-trick. He was then rested for the midweek clash against Elche, as the Portuguese got four in a 5-1 victory. Ancelotti showed his confidence in Benzema ahead of the season by not recruiting multiple striking reinforcements, which left the Frenchman as the only recognised centre forward at the club. Yet his poor goal record has caused alarm bells to ring at the Bernabeu. Javier Hernandez's early form for Real Madrid will put pressure on the former Lyon forward . Ancelotti restructured his team against Elche by putting Ronaldo and Gareth Bale together in the centre of the attack and they swept aside the visitors. Ronaldo showed he is back to his best after knee and hamstring injuries that had taken the edge off his game in recent months. 'I have faced Ronaldo when I was at Milan and he was at (Manchester) United and I don't think it is easy to stop him. If you are up against him then it is better not to think about it so that you are calmer,' joked Ancelotti. 'At the moment there is no doubt that he is the best in the world and it is not easy to mark the best in the world. We are lucky that we have him in our team and that he has plenty of desire and character. 'He is a leader and it is necessary to have him fine physically and mentally as he will win you titles.' Carlo Ancelotti has warned his players they must shore up their defence if they are to win the title . Ancelotti will be hoping for an improvement in defence against Villarreal, which has been Real's weak point in the opening five La Liga games. They are in fifth place in the table, four points off the lead. 'The teams with the best chance of winning trophies are those that are solid and concede few goals,' he said. 'Last year we were successful because we became more solid and we know that our team will never have problems to score.'" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "France international Karim Benzema has scored just one La Liga goal so far this season .\nCristiano Ronaldo, on the other hand, has netted nine times in the league .\nCarlo Ancelotti has labelled Ronaldo the best player in the world ." } ]

Toy's such as Disney's AppMates cars, costing up to £40 per set, could be bestsellers this Christmas . As studies show rocketing numbers play games on their parents' tablets, manufacturers have begun to target children with a range of . 'real' toys such as cars that can interact with a tablet. Even Furby, one of the original electronic animal toys, is set to be re-released with an accompanying iPad app. The secret to many of the app toys is simple - conductive paint. Applied to small areas on the toys base, they allow the iPad to track each paint spot as if it were a finger, allowing developers to write games that can track the toys accurately. The toys, such as a car or an action figure, are placed on the tablet's screen and interact with an app, or can control a toy themselves, such a remote controlled helicopter. The move comes as iPads are increasingly used as children's toys. Recent research in the UK and the United States found 39 per cent of adults who own an iPad have downloaded an app for children aged six to 11. Parents are also increasingly downloading apps - another study said parents download an average of 6.8 apps for children aged three to eight every three months.Toys that connect to tablets are now tipped to be one of the top 10 Christmas toys this year, with giants like Disney and Mattel spearheading the move. Even the Furby, one of the original electronic toys, is set to be re-released with an iPad app. 'They are going to be very popular this Christmas,' said Stuart Miles of web site Pocket Lint. 'Luckily there aren't too expensive,' and they do use the tablet which a parent already has. 'I think with things like the cars people will see them as stocking fillers' Mr Miles also believes the toys will be just as popular with parents. 'Kids will feel its more a traditional toy, even though they're really just a bit of plastic, while the more advanced toys like remote control helicopters appeal to grown ups as well. 'Parents who are into technology want their kids to play as well - and they get to play with toys as well. 'I'm a dad, I want to be able to play on my iPad more, so my son can play with me, and we both have a great time.' Samantha Loveday, editor of Toy News, told the Independent: 'Christmas is obviously the toy industry's most important part of the year. 'There are a lot of good toys coming out, but I think Apptivity toys have the potential to be up there. It's very 'of the moment'.' The £40 app controlled Helo TC could also be a hit. App toys are expected to be huge hits this Christmas. Dr Amanda Gummer, a psychologist specialising in play and parenting, said: 'Today's children are growing up with technology and expect it in many of their playthings. 'Combining a physical toy with the excitement of an app and the contemporary appeal of an iPad is a completely new way for kids to play.'

Updated: . 19:34 EST, 5 February 2012 . Thousands of acres of fertile land in the floodplains of the Hindon River - an ecologically sensitive zone - has been usurped by the land mafia in Noida and illegally sold to buyers for constructing houses. Already, hundreds of concrete structures have mushroomed on these plots, some houses sitting only metres away from the river's course. The district administration is aware of the plunder of real estate in the Sorkha-Noida Extension area. Several buildings, including these, have mushroomed illegally on the floodplains of the Hindon River . 'It is illegal. No construction can be undertaken in the floodplains. I passed an order recently, warning potential buyers that they should not buy such plots,' district magistrate Hridesh Kumar said. 'While visiting the Chhajarsi village some time ago, I saw first-hand illegal houses along Hindon's embankment. We plan to crack down on the offenders in a harsh manner,' he said. Asked if criminals and gangsters were behind the land-grabbing, Kumar said: 'Of course, they are. No ordinary person would get involved in it.' The illegal houses not only pose a threat to the river ecology but to the area's mythological heritage as well. The illegal buildings, marked by the red dots, on Hindon's floodplains are two kilometres away from the land scam site . 'Hindon's original name is Harnandi in Shiv Mahapuran. This land is the taposthali (abode) of Rishi Vishwawa, the father of King Ravan. Several old temples, some dating back to a thousand years, still exist today in Bisrakh near the river. 'The river embankment is also a rich habitat of birds and peacocks. The illegal constructions are destroying the rich heritage and wildlife,' Dushyant Nagar of farmers' association Kisan Sanghrash Samiti said. The place where the mafia has usurped the plots is located barely 50m from Noida Extension, the address of another multicrore land scam that was uncovered in 2010. In Noida Extension, the Greater Noida Industrial Development Authority (GNIDA) bought farmland at throwaway prices to set up SEZs but sold the real estate to private builders, who built flats and sold them to buyers. The fate of those flats is now locked in litigations in both the Supreme Court and the Allahabad High Court. Altogether, more than 2,500 acres of land in the floodplains of Hindon has been sold by the mafia over the past three years, helped by unscrupulous government officials. What's the scam?Thousands of acres of land in the floodplains of Hindon River havebeen sold by the land mafia, allegedly hand in glove with UPgovernment officials, to private buyers. Already, scores ofconcrete structures have mushroomed on these plots, some as close as 20m from the river's course . Who sold the land to the mafia?Farmers of adjoining villages such as Sorkha and Sarfabad, who were the original owners of the plots. Land-use and jurisdiction, however,rests with the UP irrigation department . Can houses be built on these plots?River basin regulations stipulate that only farming can be undertaken in the floodplains- and nothing else. In 'protected' floodplains, even farming is prohibited and needs the environment ministry's nod . The plots have been sold mostly to people from West Bengal, Bihar, Orissa, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh and even illegal Bangladeshi migrants. Local real estate dealers put the value of the land at nearly Rs 1,000 crore, at Rs 1 crore per hectare. The encroached floodplain is enclosed by roads on two sides and slices the Gautam Budh Nagar district into Noida and Greater Noida. The plots sold by the mafia originally belonged to farmers residing in nearby villages such as Sorkha and Sarfabad, who undertook farming in these land holdings. The land-use and jurisdiction, however, rests with the irrigation department. Under river basin regulations, the floodplain can only be used for farming and not for any other purposes. Construction of any kind is not permitted. In a 'protected' floodplain, even farming is prohibited and requires the permission of the Union environment ministry. Sources said most land sharks operating in the stretch are hardened criminals and gangsters, linked to the ruling government and regional political parties. The land sharks are in cahoots with officials in the registrar's office. The mafia makes farmers sign blank stamp papers. Dishonest officials get the agreement registered without physically verifying the land in question and checking its land-use. The officials do it knowingly, well aware that plots with sizes 120 sqm and less that come up before them for registration are too less a holding size for agriculture purposes and would be used to build houses. Further, the registrar officials facilitate the registration without obtaining the mandatory SDM report on the land in question. Officials in the tehsildar's office are also in cahoots with the mafia. The tehsildars get the mutation (transfer of ownership) done merely on the basis of the patwari's report, who connives with the land mafia and submit their reports about the status of the said land. When this correspondent posed as a decoy customer before one of the property dealers, named Hira Lal Gupta, he offered plots in his colony named 'Khuaja City'. 'We have plots of all sizes. The plots are priced at Rs 5,500 to Rs 7,000 per square metre. There are two roads, one 20 feet wide and another 15 feet, connecting these plots,' Hira Lal said. 'The plots are very good, close to Noida and Noida Extension. The Phase-II industrial area is close by. You won't get such a premium plot for such a price anywhere in Noida,' he said. Will flooding pose a threat to the houses?

The startling discovery suggests that millions may be carrying a long-lasting infection which dulls the brain. Scientists found the virus living in the throats of 44 per cent of patients tested in a small US study. A viral infection that could make more than half of us stupid has been discovered by scientists in America . Those who were carrying the infection performed worse in intelligence tests, even when education and age were taken into account. The virus - called chlorovirus ATCV-1 - was previously only known to appear in green algae in freshwater lakes. The researchers, from Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore and the University of Nebraska, have not established how the virus comes to infect humans. It does not seem to have infected just swimmers or watersports fans, probably ruling out a link to algae itself. Instead it could be that humans have long carried the virus, but it had not previously been looked for by doctors. Study author Professor Robert Yolken, of Johns Hopkins medical school, said the millions of viruses living in the human body are being investigated by experts for the first time. ‘We’re really just starting to find out what some of these agents that we’re carrying around might actually do,’ he told the Healthline website. ‘It’s the beginning, I think, of another way of looking at infectious agents — not agents that come in and do a lot of damage and then leave, like Ebola virus or influenza virus. ‘This is kind of the other end of the spectrum. These are agents that we carry around for a long time and that may have subtle effects on our cognition and behaviour.’ The research, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, suggests that the ATCV-1 virus alters the genes in the brain. The team found the virus in throat swabs from 40 out of 92 volunteers, and discovered those with the virus performed measurably worse in cognitive testing. They then confirmed their findings in tests on mice. Giving the virus to mice resulted in a decrease in recognition memory and other brain functions, they found. Tests showed the virus had broken through the barrier between blood and tissue, altering the activity of genes in the brains of the mice. The genes affected including those producing dopamine - a vital hormone which influences memory, spatial awareness, emotion and pleasure. But the virus does not seem to have infected just swimmers or watersports fans, ruling out a link to algae itself . The virus - called chlorovirus ATCV-1 - was previously only known to appear in green algae in freshwater lakes .

Jon Imondi, 33, performed the musical toast to Nathan, 33, and Laura Webb, 34, during their reception at Deer Park Hall in Worcester. The amateur singer serenaded the couple and their guests with his own funny version of well-known hits after deciding he was not keen on a traditional groomsman's speech. Scroll down for video . Jon Imondi, 33, stunned newlyweds Nathan, 33, and Laura Webb, 34, by singing his best man's speech . The amateur singer said he didn't fancy standing up and telling jokes to a room full of people, so did what came naturally to him . But the singer still managed to drop in the obligatory best man insults, by reworking some of the songs' lyrics. His performance included humorous jibes at the groom's ginger hair and even a suggestion that the bride was marrying her husband out of pity. The medley began with Mr Imoldi's own version of Sex is on Fire by Kings of Leon, in which he replaced the lyrics with his 'hair is on fire' - a dig at Nathan's hair. He then broke into 'I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)' by The Proclaimers, before subgubg 'Don't Look Back in Anger' by Oasis and 'A Little Respect by' Erasure. The IT support engineer finished the medley with a version of Elton John's Lion King hit 'Can You Feel The Love Tonight'. The video shows the wedding guests embracing the performance with many laughing and clapping along as friend Gary Prosser, 31, plays the guitar. The best man, from Worcester, said: 'I'd had about an year to plan this and I was going to do Bohemian Rhapsody with different words. 'But then it got to a about a week before the wedding and I still hadn't prepared anything. I decided I wanted to play songs with a guitar as well so I asked Gary to accompany me. 'I made a list and showed him the songs on Monday night and then wrote the lyrics between Monday and Thursday. He serenaded the couple's friends and family with his own rendition of a medley of songs at the reception at Deer Park Hall in Worcester . It began with his own version of Sex is on Fire by Kings of Leon and was followed by 'I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)' by The Proclaimers, 'Don't Look Back in Anger' by Oasis and 'A Little Respect by' Erasure . 'We had one chance to run through all the songs together and Nathan didn't know a thing. 'I had spent the early part of the wedding telling everyone I had nothing planned so it would come as an even bigger surprise when we finally did it. 'The other best man gave his speech and then I stepped up. A normal speech just wouldn't have been me at all, but a year ago I wouldn't have had the confidence to sing like that either. He said: 'The reaction from everyone at the wedding was brilliant. It couldn't have gone better' 'But I joined a singing group last year where we did a production of Jesus Christ Superstar, and that kind of spurred me on to do more singing. 'The reaction from everyone at the wedding was brilliant. It couldn't have gone better. 'I've known Nathan for about seven years after he started coming along to play for our Sunday League team.

'I thought it would be the usual best man-type stuff. 'He did tell a couple of jokes and then pretended we were all going to have to go outside, but then he said he was kidding and let us all sit down again. 'Next thing I knew a guitar came out and he did that with Gary. 'I even stayed at Jon's the night before the wedding with Gary as well, and they didn't let on at all. 'Laura loved it, she gets on well with both my best men so they were easy choices when it came to who to pick. 'The wedding was full of friends more than extended family and a lot of younger people were there so the songs went down brilliantly.

Visit BuildTheEnterprise.org, and you may believe you have stumbled upon the blueprints of a NASA-funded project, so complete and fully-fledged are the blueprints. Every detail of the first Enterprise has been planned out to the smallest degree, from the inner workings of the 'gravity wheel' to the coverings on the exterior shielding, as well as the outline of the first ten missions and the political problems that will have to be overcome. Naturally, there are some differences: . Captain Kirk and his crew explored the universe in 2250 or thereabouts, . and the increase in technology advances gives Kirk and co a distinct . advantage, such as warp drives powered by anti-matter and teleportation . devices. Still, 'Dan' a systems engineer whose . job involves trialling new technologies, believes we can build his model . within the next 20 years and it can then be a vessel for humanity, . using nuclear generators to take us to the moon in three days and to . Mars in 90 days. The Khan-do spirit: Systems engineer 'Dan' has methodically worked out any kinks to get the Enterprise in the skies . The ship - otherwise known as the NCC-1701 - is a faithful - and more . importantly, a technically possible, recreation of of the biggest shows . in Sci-Fi history. However, as creator 'Dan' points out, 'many changes are needed inside the Gen1 ship to make the ship . compatible with the technologies of the first half of the 21st . century. 'Keep in mind that the Star Trek adventures in the . NCC-1701-x Enterprise ships take place starting in the year 2245. Our . technology today is just not up to building a starship - that will have . to wait for a Gen4 ship or later. But this doesn’t mean that the Gen1 . Enterprise will not be awe-inspiring and similar in many fundamental . ways to the Enterprises of the future.' He added: 'The Gen1 Enterprise will be . the same size as future Enterprises or larger. It will have 1g gravity . like the future ships and ample comfortable living space. It will have a . bridge with 1g gravity where the captain and key crew members will . often work. 'It will have a huge number of sensors for probing . whatever the ship encounters in space. It can launch landers that . descend to a planet below and then return to the ship. It will move . beyond the brute-force rocket engines of the 20th century by using ion . propulsion engines powered by on-board nuclear reactors. 'Yes, this may still be a long way from warp drives powered by anti-matter, but it will be a respectable start.' Ready for construction: Build the Enterprise even goes into great detail about each area of the ship, breaking down what modern-day technology can be adapted to boldly go into space . More than an Eiffel, or a World Trade Centre: The Enterprise would be one of the most ambitious projects built on this planet (or off it) Bold plans: The full plans to build a real-life USS Enterprise is laid out online . Dan continued: 'Things . get moved around and reworked quite a bit inside the Gen1 Enterprise . compared to the Enterprises of Star Trek. For example, in the NCC-1701-x . ships the hanger deck is located in the back of the lower hull and this . serves as the launch and entry port for shuttlecrafts. 'But in the . Gen1 Enterprise this lower hull section instead houses the main engine . and main nuclear reactor. For the Gen1 ship, the spaceport entry doors . are on the underside of the saucer hull. 'The reason for this is that . in the Gen1 Enterprise every bit of the three hull sections to the rear . of the Enterprise are needed to house the three engines and nuclear . reactors that will be needed to provide enough power to move the massive . ship with the required .002g constant acceleration. 'Another example . of a change is that the bridge is not at the top center of the saucer . hull as it is shown in the figure above. If it was there in the Gen1 . Enterprise then there would be no gravity on the bridge. Having the . ship’s captain and crew floating around inside the bridge just makes no . sense. Thus, in the Gen1 Enterprise the bridge is in a dedicated section . of the gravity wheel so that they will work in 1g gravity. 'While . things get moved around quite a bit inside the Gen1 Enterprise when . compared to the ships from Star Trek, they are not moved around upon a . whim. They are moved around because the Gen1 ship’s technological . capabilities demand certain changes.' Boldly going forward: Captain James T Kirk (William Shatner) leads his Enterprise crew on another mission . Dan, . who is behind the project, seems qualified for the role, and hopes that . even if his project doesn't - excuse the pun - get off the ground, his . project will inspire The Next Generation. On . his website he states: 'In my day job I work as a systems engineer and . electrical engineer. For 30 years I have worked at the same Fortune 500 . company, a company that is a high-tech leader in the US and globally. 'I’m . lucky that in my role I often get to explore new ideas and new . technologies when working toward the development of new products. The . BuildTheEnterprise website just seems to flow out naturally from the . same approach I take in pondering and evaluating new ideas and . technologies in my day job. 'Personally, . I have found working as an engineer to be very rewarding. The work is . interesting, the pay is good, your co-workers are bright and . enthusiastic, and the unemployment rate in engineering typically runs . under 3 per cent – far below the national average for all workers. For . these reasons I hope that some young people find a bit of inspiration in . this website, and that this might even help motivate some to study . engineering in college. 'And . okay, for the record, while in grade school I watched the first Star . Trek series each week during the original season on TV in 1966 on my . family’s black and white TV. 'Captivated . by the image and idea of the USS Enterprise, I built a long lost model . of it from a kit I purchased at a store. I was around nine years old. So . I suppose the USS Enterprise has been burned into my brain for a long . time, just waiting for a chance to get out.'

On the sunny seafront at Folkestone, two African migrants look forward to a new life after a hazardous journey across the English Channel hidden in a refrigerated lorry and almost suffocating to death. Now, eight days after arriving, they live at the taxpayers’ expense in a Kent holiday hotel with a swimming pool and champagne on offer while Home Office officials search for UK homes for them. ‘We are so happy and our only worry is whether we will need coats for the cold weather in your winter,’ says Abrham Embaye, 30, in his good English as he puts his arm round his friend, Abel Teages, aged 20. Scroll down for video . Abel Teages (left) and Abrham Embaye (right) are living in a Kent hotel at the taxpayers' expense . ‘We are going to make our lives in your country and never go back to Africa. The Home Office officials say we will stay in this hotel, where we get three meals a day and nice rooms, until October 6 and then I go to Leeds and Abel is to live in Cardiff. Is Leeds colder than Cardiff?’ He produces a bunch of official papers in a brown envelope with a Home Office stamp on the top to show me he is telling the truth. The two migrants were among a group of 24 Eritrean men and women who paid £400 each to trafficking agents for the final leg of their journey to the UK – a place in a refrigerated lorry which arrived in Dover on a ferry from Calais, eight days ago. They were discovered after seven hours in the truck when the foreign driver parked near Dover. The migrants, frightened of being suffocated, had begun banging on the sides of the lorry. A mechanic from a nearby workshop broke the security seal to the vehicle and found them gasping for breath. The migrants get three meal a day and comfortable rooms at The Grand Burstin Hotel with views of the White Cliffs of Folkestone . They survived a hazardous journey across the English Channel hidden in a refrigerated lorry and almost suffocating to death . The incident, filmed on mobile phones, made national headlines. It also raised questions over how hundreds of migrants from impoverished African and beleaguered Middle East countries still slip over the 22 miles of water from Calais each month despite Home Office promises that UK border controls at the French port have been tightened up. This week, as 1,500 migrants waited in Calais to try their chance of smuggling themselves to the UK, the Government pledged £4million a year until 2017 to counter organised trafficking gangs. Crucially, new technology at the port to look inside refrigerated lorries – the vehicles where migrants appear to routinely escape detection – is expected to be introduced too. Back in Folkestone, holiday makers at the Grand Burstin hotel where Abrham and Abel stay voiced disapproval over the new arrivals. Back in Folkestone, holiday makers at the Grand Burstin hotel where the asylum seekers stay voiced disapproval over the new arrivals . Around 130 migrants moved there by coach on Tuesday from the overcrowded Euro Queens’ hotel near Croydon, which was dubbed Hotel Asylum by locals and guests when they found 500 asylum seekers squashed into 98 rooms last weekend. Now the Grand Burstin is being called Hotel Asylum 2. It will cost taxpayers £72,000 to keep the migrants from Croydon there for two weeks in £40-a-night rooms. As Folkestone councillor Bob Neaves said: ‘A lot of residents and business people are disgusted the migrants have been sprung on us. They’re worried about tourism. ‘We don’t want this to become another Calais.’ Kath Mahon, a 52-year-old from Preston, who was last week enjoying a holiday at the Grand Burstin with her daughter Heather, 27, said: ‘It makes us feel uncomfortable. We don’t know who they are and whether they have criminal records. There’s old people staying here who are petrified.’ Another holidaymaker, a TripAdvisor user, Nicola from Worcester, left a review on Thursday of the experience at the hotel after being surprised to meet migrants there. She wrote: ‘We booked the weekend for our wedding anniversary, but as soon as we checked in we could see it was a lovely hotel, so we booked an extra night. However on the evening of our extra night, 130 asylum seekers arrived. ‘It worried the life out of me, with all that’s going on we didn’t know if we were in any danger. ‘We didn’t sleep, we went back to our room early as we were worried about our belongings and even worried about our car. ‘If my husband hadn’t had two glasses of wine with dinner we would [have] left that evening.’ However – oblivious to the hostility – the migrants, mainly from Eritrea but also from the Middle East troublespots, are delighted with their new abode. Both Abrham and Abel were housed temporarily at other hotels near Dover after being rescued from the lorry. They were then sent to Folkestone earlier this week to join the 130 from Croydon at the Grand Burstin. The migrants I met are claiming asylum and will be given free housing plus cash benefits of £150 a month while the Home Office decides if they can stay in the UK, a process which could take years. The Romanian driver of the refrigerated lorry carrying the Eritrean group, which included nine children, has been charged with assisting the entry of illegals and is due in court next week. The Eritreans are Christians who flee a dictatorship where every male over 18 is forced to serve in the Army – although Abrham claims he was forced into service at the age of 13. They start their journey to the West by paying trafficking agents to guide them in lorry convoys over the Sahara desert to Libya and, from there, by boat to Italy. A trickle of Eritreans smuggling themselves to the UK is now a torrent. Their asylum claims are often granted because of the oppression in their country. As I sit with Abrham on a harbour bench outside the Great Burstin, he explains: ‘I was made to serve in the Eritrean Army from when I was a young teenager. It is a frightening country and so we want to get to England. ‘My family paid £1,200 to a trafficking agent put me on a lorry across the Sahara to the Libyan seaport of Zwara. Then they paid £1,400 to another agent for my place on a small boat to the Italian coastline. ‘I made my way to Rome and stayed with a group of Eritreans there to rest. I then took a train through the Italian-French border to Nice in the south of France, before getting others to Paris and Calais. ‘I was in Calais for seven weeks trying to get on a lorry day and night. I hid my Christian cross under my T-shirt because I was afraid I would be attacked by the Muslim migrants there.’ He continued as the voice of Vera Lynn’s White Cliffs of Dover rang out from a nearby cafe: ‘A week ago I got my chance. My family paid more money to an agent for my place on the refrigerated lorry.’ The migrants say they were around seven hours inside the lorry before the doors opened and they could breathe properly again. ‘We were desperate, gasping for air,’ says Abrham. Then he gives another broad grin before adding: ‘But, at last I was in England.’" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Abrham Embaye, 30, and Abel Teages, 20, are living in a Kent holiday hotel .\nAsylum seekers travelled across the Channel hidden in a refrigerated lorry .\nThe pair now get three meals a day paid for them at The Grand Burstin Hotel .\nHome Office is searching for places they can live in Leeds and Cardiff ." } ]

Some, such as the France World Cup winner Marcel Desailly, William Gallas and Ricardo Carvalho, were more serious than others. Khalid Boulahrouz, Alex and Tal Ben Haim maybe not so much, but they were all brought in to the club under Terry’s watch. Better than ever: John Terry has been remarkable this season, featuring in all of Chelsea's Premier League games . Terry, in his 16th season as a professional footballer with Chelsea, remains. He is probably playing better than ever. Little wonder, then, that he is agitating for news of another contract at Stamford Bridge. They are certainly making him sweat. Marina Granovskaia, who is Roman Abramovich’s eyes and ears around the place, appears to have enjoyed the moment she told Terry that the club have a new policy in place. Out of nowhere, it appears any one by the name of John Terry will only be offered one year contracts now that he is over 30 years of age. He is panicking a bit, probably with good reason after putting himself in pole position to be Chelsea’s player of the year. Perhaps Granovskaia, who is a member of the football club board at Chelsea, remembers the last time she was involved in negotiations with Terry back in July 2009. More on that in a moment because the unsavoury slog through the media that summer put a few noses out of joint. Back to where it all matters, though, and his performances on the pitch. Football clubs will pretty much forgive anything - and there has been much to forgive in this case - so long as they perform out on the pitch. Terry is not only the best central defender in Chelsea’s history, but he is also unrivalled in two decades of the Barclays Premier League. He is the best there has been. It was only a couple of weeks ago when Terry’s 600th appearance in a Chelsea shirt was being commemorated before their Premier League clash with Manchester United. ‘An incredible achievement by a guy who has given everything for a club for many, many years and continues to do so,’ cooed his manager Jose Mourinho in his programme notes. Terry, 33, has played in all 22 Premier League fixtures for Chelsea this season and he will captain the team against West Ham on Wednesday. He has realigned his game, handing marking duties to his partner Gary Cahill and using his positioning, which has always been his best attribute, to dictate the game. He has been phenomenal. Colossus: Marcel Desailly was another robust Chelsea centre half and Stamford Bridge favourite . Another stalwart: Rio Ferdinand's game at Manchester United, West Ham and Leeds has been exceptional . Back to that £150,000 a week contract, which expires on June 30 this year: ‘I trust John and I think he trusts me,’ was Mourinho’s take on the situation last Friday. Last time round, when he was working off pay-as-you-go mobile phones to flirt with Manchester City in 2009, he tucked up one or two people on the way to securing a five year deal with Chelsea. Still, you live and learn. At the time he was so powerful at Chelsea it was untrue: he used to take his kids swimming at the club’s Surrey training base as if it was his own personal leisure centre. But over the years, with each lurid appearance on the front page of a tabloid newspaper, his authority at the club has slowly eroded. He remains captain, but he has had to keep his nose clean over the past couple of years. There has been the odd blip, such as the announcement that he was ready to play for England again on the flight home from Basle on April 25 last year, but that’s about it. To be fair to him, if he could put one or two personal issues with the FA to one side, he would play for England at this summer’s World Cup finals. Top man: Terry (right) has been a mainstay in Jose Mourinho's Chelsea teams while at Chelsea . Trophy hunter: Terry proudly holds the Europa League last season . Let’s face it, Roy Hodgson would take the country’s best central defender at the drop of a hat if he was available for selection. Still, the pressing issue for Terry at this moment is Chelsea’s failure to offer him the contract he believes he has earned. If he wants a bargaining chip the next time he knocks on Granovskaia’s door, it might be worth throwing in the name of Steven Gerrard. On July 15 last year, a couple of months after the Liverpool captain celebrated his 33rd birthday, he signed a new two year contract. Brick wall: Terry has found fine form this season since Mourinho's return at Stamford Bridge . Star in the making: Terry (left) holds the FA Cup trophy back in 2000 (left) and (right) was red-carded during an England Under 21 match against Greece . ‘It’s great news,’ admitted the Liverpool captain as he prepared for the start of his 16th season at Anfield. Good for him. Gerrard has had a stellar career, playing for the same team throughout and making more than 400 Premier League appearances. Like Terry, he has also lifted the European Cup. Still hope? If Terry put aside some differences with the FA, he may yet be on the plane to Brazil . Terry, who is the same age, has had a similar career, but can also point to three Premier League titles in the Abramovich era. He also remains the last player to successfully come through the youth ranks at the club, something which should not be overlooked in the final reckoning. At some stage his luck will finally run out, but it won’t be this summer. On the slide? Terry's career has been one marked with controversy... and success .

Rarer still is to see the former England captain virtually motionless, speaking almost in a whisper at times, and standing with his hands clasped in front of him as if in silent prayer. But anyone at Westminster Magistrates’ Court yesterday got a glimpse of the other John Terry. Not the Chelsea defender aggressively tackling his opponents on the pitch. Scroll down for video . Arriving at court: Chelsea captain John Terry pictured yesterday outside Westminster Magistrates' Court, where he is on trial for allegedly racially abusing fellow footballer Anton Ferdinand . Terry denied making the alleged slur during a Premier League game in October last year . This was Terry at his most humble, . giving evidence for the first time in defence of a charge that he . racially abused Anton Ferdinand in a four-letter tirade during a game . against QPR last October. Evidence: Anton Ferdinand leaves the court yesterday with friends . Terry, who denies the claim, arrived . at court on Monday looking as if he had just left a wedding in his . expensive grey suit and pink tie. Yesterday the outfit was bordering on . funereal – a midnight blue suit, black tie and highly polished black . shoes. To begin with, Mr Terry, as . prosecuting lawyer Duncan Penny addressed him, was asked to place the . various insults, banter and confrontations commonplace in top class . football into rank order. ‘Handbags’, the 31-year-old Chelsea . skipper agreed, was how commentators tended to define clashes that . didn’t result in fists, headbutts and outright violence. Then there were the insults. ‘You’re . ugly,’ was probably at the lower end of the scale and was commonplace, . Terry agreed. Ditto ‘You’re fat’. Comments about players’ wives and . girlfriends? ‘I’ve had that,’ Terry said. Mr Penny: ‘A player might say, “I had . your wife... I s**** your girlfriend, that sort of thing?”’ Terry: . ‘Yes.’ Terry allegedly made racist comments to Queens Park Rangers defender Ferdinand during a match on October 23 last year . But there were no-go areas. ‘How about, “Your mum’s a s”? Have . you heard that said to other players?’ Mr Penny asked. Terry: ‘No, only to myself.’ What about insults concerning what Mr . Penny called his ‘domestic circumstances’ – Terry is alleged to have . reacted after Ferdinand accused him of ‘s**** Bridge’s missus’, a . reference to his relationship with model Vanessa Perroncel, who had been . dating his former colleague Wayne Bridge. Was that a no-go area? ‘Apparently not,’ said Terry, adding that fans had long heckled him over . it. Mr Penny: ‘So when someone enters a . no-go area, you strike back?’ Terry: ‘No, I don’t strike back.’ Mr . Penny: ‘You’re the innocent victim are you?’ Terry: ‘Yes.’ Mr Penny: . ‘Too right. You’ve been stitched up right and proper haven’t you?’ Terry: ‘Yeah.’ Former England soccer captain and Chelsea player John Terry, centre, arrives at Westminster Magistrates' Courts in London . Under further questioning, Terry denied he had ‘snapped’ when Ferdinand abused him, or that his ‘blood was up’. Terry told Mr Penny he had never been . accused on a football pitch of making racist remarks. ‘At the time I was . shocked and angry,’ he said. ‘Hindsight’s a wonderful thing. At the . time I was shocked, I was angry, you can’t control your emotions.’ The court heard that Terry had told . detectives that using racist terms was ‘completely unacceptable’. He had . also told police of his work with the African charities of two black . former Chelsea colleagues, Marcel Desailly and striker Didier Drogba, . adding: ‘My commitment to these projects further demonstrates that I am . not a racist.’ At one stage in confrontation with . Ferdinand, he admitted, he had waved his hand in front of his nose to . gesture that his opponent had ‘bad breath’ – but he had not intended to . humiliate him. Anton Ferdinand's mother Janice arrives at Westminster Magistrates' Court for the second day of John Terry trial . In the dock: John Terry watches on as his alleged race abuse victim Anton Ferdinand gives evidence in this artist's impression of proceedings . Why not just tell him to calm down? ‘You wouldn’t see many footballers when they square up saying “Calm down”,’ Terry replied. Why did he gesture in the same game . that QPR goalkeeper Paddy Kenny was fat? Was that ‘handbags’ too? ‘Yes,’ said Terry, adding that his rivals sometimes called him fat. Mr Penny: ‘You’re not fat though are you? You’re a supreme athlete.’ Terry: ‘I used to be...’ Scandal: Terry's alleged comments came in response to taunts by the other player about his alleged affair with an ex-team-mate's girlfriend, Vanessa Perroncel, pictured, the prosecution said . Had he thought about apologising to . Anton Ferdinand? ‘Why would I apologise to Anton?’ he replied. ‘He’s the . one who accused me.’ Terry told the court that it had . actually been Ferdinand who had first used racist terms during the . flare-up. As the pair traded insults, he claims to have heard Ferdinand . say: ‘Calling me a black c?’ He said: ‘I thought he was accusing me . of calling him a black c. I was very angry and I was upset. I . replied, “A black c? You f*** k*head”.’ This second day of the hearing was played out to a packed court. Outside, passing van drivers . displaying Chelsea colours tooted support on their horns; inside, the . legal files, coincidentally, were coloured blue and white. Terry was in the witness box for a . total of two hours, which, even on his wages of £160,000 a week, almost . certainly worked out less in hourly rates than the collective fees of . the lawyers involved in the case. Earlier Terry told the court he shook Ferdinand’s hand in the dressing room after asking to see him after the match. ‘We’ve got a little bit of . superstition at Chelsea,’ he said. ‘Me, Ash [Ashley Cole], Frank Lampard . and [Daniel] Sturridge all get changed together – until we lose, then . we change sequence. ‘By this stage I’m already changed. I’m in the toilet doing my hair. As I come out, me and Anton passed.’ Terry said he asked the QPR defender if he was suggesting he had been racially abused. Ferdinand’s response? ‘No, no, no. We all say things we shouldn’t. That’s the end of it.’ This case is listed to run until the end of the week. If you don’t want to know the result, look away then.

Mie General Medical Centre: Hospital sources said Bianchi was breathing but only with the help of a ventilator . Prof Saillant, president of the FIA medical commission, arrived in Yokkaichi early this morning and went straight to the hospital where Bianchi is said to be in a 'critical' condition. On Sunday, the Marussia driver suffered a severe head injury when his car smashed into a tractor rescuing the crashed Sauber of Adrian Sutil, who had spun off on the previous lap of the Japanese Grand Prix. Prof Saillant arrived at Mie General Hospital with Nicolas Todt, Bianchi's agent, and went straight in via the emergency entrance to avoid crowds of waiting reporters, Le Parisien reports. Top doctor: French brain injury specialist Professor Gerard Saillant, president of the FIA medical commission, has flown in to assist in Bianchi's care . Bianchi, who is just 25, remains in intensive care today after emergency surgery on a severe head injury following his high speed crash on the rain-soaked Suzuka circuit. Sources at the hospital said Bianchi was breathing but only with the help of a ventilator, not on his own as was originally reported in the French media on Sunday night. Famous in the world of sport and one of France's leading neurologists, Prof Saillant is a brain and spinal injury expert with a particular specialism in motorsports. It was he who helped to treat Michael Schumacher after the retired F1 ace's devastating head injury while skiiing in December last year. He also oversaw Schumacher's medical care when he broke his leg in the 1999 British Grand Prix. A spokesman for the FIA, Formula One's governing body, said last night Bianchi's condition was ‘critical but stable’ and it is understood his family will finally see him on Tuesday. They had been delayed in getting to him due to Typhoon Phanfone. The first video of the horrific moment Bianchi crashed into the digger has now been distributed online. The clip was released as Jules Bianchi was revealed to be in a ‘critical but stable’ condition following the crash. An ambulance was sent to the scene straight after Bianchi's crash - which knocked him unconscious - and the 25-year-old Frenchman was taken to the Mie General Medical Center in Yokkaichi. Last night Camille Marchetti, 24, the French girlfriend of Bianchi, sent up a prayer through Twitter for her 'champion' as he fought for his life in hospital. Bianchi's father, Philippe, told French TV that his son's condition was 'critical' and he had undergone surgery for serious head injuries. Miss Marchetti, who has dated Bianchi for a number of years, said: 'You are my champion! You are the strongest’. She ended the tweet with emoticons of a heart and two hands locked in prayer. Crash: The clip was taken yesterday in the aftermath of another accident at the Japanese Grand Prix . Clip: The driver was severely injured when his car ploughed into the back of a tractor rescuing another vehicle . Girlfriend: Camilee Marchetti (pictured with Bianchi at an event) is an osteopathy student at the Collège Ostéopathique de Provence in France and originally hails from the Mediterranean island of Corsica . 'My champion'! Bianchi's long-term partner, Camille Marchetti, led prayers for the race ace's recovery as the world waited for news on his condition . Yesterday, Marussia issued a statement giving thanks for the support Bianchi had received. They also asked for ‘patience and understanding’ with regard to further medical updates. This was after an initial release was made by the FIA on Sunday confirming the driver suffered ‘a severe head injury’ and was to undergo surgery before being moved to intensive care. Marussia's statement read: ‘Following the accident involving Jules Bianchi during yesterday's 2014 Formula One Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka Circuit, the Marussia F1 Team would like to acknowledge the huge outpouring of support and affection for Jules and the team at this very difficult time. ‘With regard to the communication of information concerning Jules' medical condition, we will respect, and be guided by, the wishes of the Bianchi family. Together with Jules' care, they will remain our highest priority. ‘Therefore, we would ask for patience and understanding with regard to further medical updates, which will be communicated in conjunction with the Mie General Medical Center in Yokkaichi, where Jules is being treated, when they feel it is appropriate. ‘Representatives of the Marussia F1 Team and Scuderia Ferrari will remain at the hospital to support Jules and the Bianchi family.’ Unconscious but breathing for himself, Bianchi was taken to Mie University hospital, ten miles from the track in Suzuka, and the race was stopped nine laps early. Bianchi's father has since told French television that his son's condition is 'critical' and he has undergone surgery for serious head injuries. The F1 season moves on to Sochi in Russia for next weekend's race and it remains to be seen whether or not Marussia will take part. Bianchi's crash saw Sunday's event halted at lap 44, with victory being awarded to Lewis Hamilton, who has opened up a ten-point lead in the championship over his second-placed Mercedes team-mate Nico Rosberg with four races remaining. The race had been under threat of cancellation in the build-up as Typhoon Phanfone headed towards Suzuka and the wet weather led to it being red-flagged after just two laps, despite starting under safety car conditions. Once enough standing water had been cleared to allow the race to begin in earnest, Briton Hamilton caught and passed Germany's Rosberg on lap 29 before disappearing into the distance. The rain then came down again, driving conditions deteriorated and Bianchi crashed out, prompting the red flags to return and the race to be ended with nine laps to go. Williams driver Felipe Massa has said he had been ‘screaming’ over his radio during the race about the amount of water on the track, but former FIA president Max Mosley believes ‘everything was done as it should have been’ in relation to safety. Supportive: Miss Marchetti (far left) watches Bianchi prepare to take part in the Amber Lounge Fashion Show ahead of the Monaco Formula One Grand Prix at Circuit de Monaco last May . Asked if F1 is doing everything right to secure the safety of its drivers, Mosley told Sky Sports News HQ on Monday: ‘I think it is. I think what happened in Suzuka was very unfortunate, a freak accident. ‘But I can't really fault any of the people involved - the marshals or the race director, any of those people. I think everything was done as it should have been.’ Massa said he was trying his best to get the race called off in the run up to Sutil and Bianchi's accidents. ‘I was already screaming on the radio five laps before the safety car that there was too much water on the track, but they took a bit too long and it was dangerous,’ the Brazilian said on Sunday. A subdued Hamilton said: ‘Our first thoughts go to Jules. It overshadows everything else when one of our colleague is injured and we are praying for him. ‘Next to this, the race result doesn't seem significant at all. Nico and I had a tough battle, we were pushing really hard... But like I said, that's not what matters - our thoughts are with Jules.’ Bianchi's long term partner, Miss Marchetti, is an osteopathy student at the Collège Ostéopathique de Provence in France who originally hails from the Mediterranean island of Corsica. She is well-known in the Formula 1 community and is often seen cheering Bianchi on from the pits as he races around the world. Known also for her glamorous attire and interest in fashion, she regularly accompanies him to F1 events and parties. Bianchi is a graduate of the Ferrari academy and former Ferrari driver Felipe Massa and team principal Marco Mattiacci went with him to hospital. It is the most serious accident to hit a race weekend since Felipe Massa fractured his skull and spent a week in a coma while qualifying for the Hungarian Grand Prix, in 2009." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Philippe and Christine Bianchi arrived at Mie General Hospital last night .\nTheir son is 'critical but stable' after Japanese Grand Prix crash on Sunday .\nMarussia driver was injured when his car ploughed into the back of a tractor .\nOne of F1's top brain doctors has also flown to Japan to help treat Bianchi .\nProfessor Gerard Saillant advised after Michael Schumacher's ski crash .\nA top neurologist in France, he is president of the FIA medical commission .\nHe arrived in Yokkaichi early this morning and went straight to the hospital .\nBianchi's girlfriend Camille Marchetti, 24, sends up prayer for her 'champion'" } ]

Gone: Terry has finally sold the red-brick mansion for £5.25million after three years on the market . In 2010 the former England captain was advised to drop the asking price by three quarters of a million pounds. However, helped by the current burgeoning property market, he has finally sold it for more than the £5million asking price. The sale will help the 32-year-old finance the new mansion which he has had built in his back garden - a short drive from Chelsea's training ground in Cobham.

Constructed at the end of a private road, the huge new home, which he shares with wife Toni, is hidden away from prying eyes and is only clearly visible from the air. It comprises eight dressing and bathrooms, nine bedrooms, a swimming pool and sauna. The mansion even has its own private cinema and sauna. The huge lake in the garden has been constructed over three months and still needs laying to grass and paving. Terry, a keen angler, was . given permission to build the fishing lake in April 2012 - despite . it being on green belt land. Terry’s agent confirmed that the old home - which he bought in 2003 - had finally been sold. The new buyers have not yet been identified. 'He always planned to sell it and is pleased to have made money on it,' said the agent. Terry was reported to have incurred a mortgage debt of £4.6million pounds on the building of the new house. Construction work started in December 2011 and the finished mansion is believed to include a 33x40ft indoor swimming pool, complete with a jacuzzi, steam room and changing facilities.

Her hair was perfectly styled, thanks to the attentions of her personal stylist. She had applied her customary black eyeliner, her cheeks glowed with good health – and her smile threatened to outshine the hundreds of flashbulbs on the pavement outside. But for the mothers watching around the world as the Duchess of Cambridge walked out on to the steps of the Lindo Wing yesterday, the real delight was her ‘mummy tummy’. That neat bump was the only thing which gave away the fact Kate had given birth to an 8lb 6oz boy just a day earlier. And the glowing duchess clearly felt no need to hide it, a decision praised immediately by mothers’ groups. Netmums founder Siobhan Freegard said the duchess had dispelled the ‘myth that all mothers should be perfect postpartum’. ‘In a couple of minutes on the steps of the Lindo Wing Kate has done more for new mums’ self-esteem than any other role model,’ she said. ‘Sadly, too many celebrities often have ultra-fast tummy tucks or strap themselves down to emerge in tiny size six jeans, leaving everyone else feeling inadequate. ‘Kate shows what a real mum looks like – and natural is beautiful.’ She continued: ‘Undoubtedly over the coming weeks the duchess will work hard to regain her figure, but tonight she’s proved herself a healthy role model for real mums around the world.’ Many mothers took to Mumsnet to share their delight, describing Kate as a ‘role model’ for showing off her mummy tummy. One user wrote: ‘Oh just so lovely … I think she is fantastically brave to not hide her post birth shape. What a great role model she is.’ A second wrote: ‘I loved that Kate didn’t hide her remaining bump. That is what a postnatal woman looks like folks!’ Another added: ‘They both looked fab, and I was also impressed that she didn’t hide the belly, good for her!’ A fourth wrote: ‘I’ve got tears in my eyes here. So glad Kate didn’t try to hide her bump like so many celebrities do. Good for her. ‘I think my own squishy belly was the first immediately post-natal one I’d ever seen. Well done Kate!’ A neat bump: Mothers' groups were delighted at the Duchess's decision not to hide her bump, with Netmums' founder Siobhan Freegard saying she had dispelled the 'myth that all mothers should be perfect postpartum' The sight of Kate still carrying a bump after childbirth will have gladdened the hearts of new mums under pressure to regain their figure. It takes around ten days for the womb to contract back to its normal size, and the Duchess looks ‘completely normal’, according to Clare Byam-Cook, a child care expert. Providing there is not excessive weight gain, most of the pounds gained during pregnancy disappear with the arrival of the baby. The shedding of the placenta – the baby’s life support and nutritional system in the womb – and amniotic fluid also help the body regain its shape. Breastfeeding further helps weight loss and assists the womb to contract more quickly. Miss Byam-Cook advised new mothers to relax and enjoy their baby. ‘The weight will, in most cases, take care of itself,’ she said. Twitter was also dominated by women praising Kate for refusing to hide her figure. Stacey Cook said: ‘Nice to see Kate still has a mummy tummy! Not like these skinny celebs who come out stick thin.’ Ju Lincoln wrote: ‘Beautiful royal baby and lovely to see that Kate still has a mummy tummy like all us normal women … I’m still trying to lose mine!’ Indeed, the general agreement last night was that the Duchess of Cambridge looked ‘utterly fabulous’ as she presented her new son to the world. Kate, whose style over the last nine . months has already become a by-word for pregnancy chic, did not . disappoint with her choice of dress. Her bespoke blue polka-dot Jenny . Packham frock looked cool and chic, its empire line cut perfectly . displaying her ‘mummy tummy’. Her . choice of print seemed to be a nod to the dress worn by Princess Diana . on the day she left hospital with Prince William in 1982. She posed on the same steps with her first-born son, wearing a green polka dot dress. 'Utterly fabulous': Women writing on Twitter also hailed the duchess for her choice of dress which revealed the bump . A nod to Diana? The late Princess of Wales posed on the same steps with her first-born son, Kate's husband Prince William wearing a green dress with similar polka dots to the one worn by Kate yesterday . But where Diana appeared nervous and bewildered by the attention – and was said to have burst into tears as soon as she got in the car – the radiant duchess smiled broadly and spoke assuredly to the ranks of camera crews. And while Charles wore a formal pinstripe suit and tie, William opted for a casual shirt, the blue perfectly matching his wife’s dress. And, naturally for this very hands-on new father, the sleeves were rolled up." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Netmum's founder hails Duchess for dispelling myth that new mothers 'should be perfect post-partum'\nMany mothers also take to the parenting forum to share their delight that Kate made no effort to hide her bump .\nHowever her hair was perfectly done by her personal stylist and she had applied her customary black eyeliner ." } ]

The show, which originally ran from 1988 to 2003, was seen as one of the most difficult on TV and gathered a loyal following among students and pensioners. The most eagle eyed among them may spot a few familiar faces on the new series. Among the new line up of hopefuls are two contestants who were knocked out first time round and are hoping to redeem themselves. Margaret Burton, 68, first appeared in 2000 and made the final three before crashing out. Since then her husband Jon, who watched her performance from the green room, has died. After six years as a widow she found love on an internet dating site and remarried. The retired pub landlady from Lancing, West Sussex said she remembered Mr Stewart as being ‘a little forbidding’. She added: ‘It had always been my idea of a proper quiz show with lots of questions and no gimmicks. I liked the idea of being able to have another go.’ Also hoping for a second shot at the top prize is solicitor David Stainer, 35, from Hertford.

It was “What is the common name of myastotis, the romantic woodland plant?” ‘I now know the answer is Forget-me-not, but my general knowledge is much better now.’ He added: ‘Fifteen To One was always my favourite game show. It is a show for purists because it is so difficult and they don’t waste time.

People may think they are easy, but they require a much broader general knowledge.’ Mr Stewart, who has retired, once claimed he asked 350,000 questions in his 35 series run on Fifteen to One. The no-frills set of the new series is similar to the original, and it has the same format in which 15 contestants answer questions on each episode until there is a winner.

Jesus Arevalo, 36, is getting thousands of dollars each month from Nevada's Public Employees Retirement System because he was granted a full retirement for a 'stress-related' disability just before he finished up with the department. According to the Las Vegas Review Journal, the disability pension allows Arevalo to collect benefits equaling about 31 per cent of his highest annual pay while on the force. Disability: Jesus Arevalo, 36, pictured last March at a seprate court hearing, is getting thousands of dollars each month from Nevada's Public Employees Retirement System because he was granted a full retirement for a 'stress-related' disability just before he finished up with the department . PERS would not specify the amount, however, the newspaper reports that Arevalo's annual pay averaged $90,275 in his last three years with the department. As such, he can expect between $23,000 and $28,000 per year, with cost-of-living increases, depending on whether his retirement benefits were calculated using his base pay or with overtime. This equates to at least $1 million if he lives to the age of 80. On December 12, 2011, Arevalo fired his AR-15 rifle into Stanley Gibson's barricaded car after mistaking another officer's gunfire as coming from that direction. Gibson was hit four times and died at the scene. The wife of the Gulf War veteran, who suffered from delusions and post-traumatic stress since returning home, received a $1.5 million settlement from the department. The department's internal Use of Force Board recommended Arevalo's firing in May, according to the Review Journal. Arevalo submitted his disability retirement paperwork to the department on July 9, 2012, more than a year-and-a-half after the shooting. Victim: This undated file photo shows Rondha and Stanley Gibson. Stanley Gibson was shot to death by Arevalo on December, 12, 2011, and his wife, left, received $1.5 million compensation from the department . He said he initially wanted to remain with the force, but, with the case against him, it became 'too much.' Arevalo told the newspaper: 'When you're gonna (expletive) lose everything, and there are medical issues stress-wise, and a lot of people are saying, \"Hey, it's not worth it. You need to work on you,\" toward the end, it was just too much.' On September 18, PERS retirement board members, unanimously approved Arevalo's permanent and total disability based on recommendations from his employer, supervisor and doctor. Two weeks later, the department's pre-termination board heard Arevalo's shooting case and agreed he should be fired. He was finally terminated by Clark County Sheriff Doug Gillespie on October 15. If he had lost his job a month earlier, he wouldn't have been eligible for the disability pension. A member of the PERS board, Chris Collins, executive director of the Las Vegas Police Protective Association, said he didn't believe Arevalo was trying to avoid punishment. 'I don't think he ran from discipline,' Collins told the Review Journal. 'Both letters from doctors were saying that this is a gentleman who, from the events in his life, put him in the predicament that he probably shouldn't be a policeman anymore. It made perfect sense to me.' Collins added that knowing the department was planning to fire him may have pushed his stress levels over the edge. Unfair? While Arevalo, pictured making a hand signal, didn't appeal his termination, he said he doesn't believe the department had enough cause to fire him . 'Maybe that was the straw that broke the camel's back. I don't know,' Collins said. 'Whatever it was that finally pushed him over, his doctor didn't believe he could have worked as a police officer again.' The Review Journal cited a senior officer with knowledge of the disciplinary process as saying that officers facing discipline will retire for a questionable health problem about once a year. 'The whole medical retirement thing, for a lot of people, is a joke,' another officer said, according to the newspaper. While Arevalo didn't appeal his termination, he said he doesn't believe the department had enough cause to fire him. He believes his colleague, Lt. David Dockendorf, who was demoted two ranks, bore as much responsibility for Gibson's death as he did, and the department's radio system, which officials acknowledged wasn't working that night, was also to blame. 'The department tried to paint me as an out-of-control cop, a rogue cop,' Arevalo said. 'It's all Gillespie. He wanted to take heat off a $42 million radio system that failed that night. He wanted to take heat off his lieutenant.' Despite what happened, he said he feels terrible about Gibson's death. 'Someone died because of what I did,' Arevalo said. 'As a Christian, I have to live with that the rest of my life. That should have never happened.'" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Jesus Arevalo, 36, is getting thousands of dollars a month from Nevada's Public Employees Retirement System .\nThe Las Vegas man was granted a full retirement for a 'stress-related' disability just one month before he was fired by the department for shooting dead Stanley Gibson in 2011 .\nThe disability pension allows Arevalo to collect benefits equaling about 31 per cent of his highest annual pay while on the force .\nAs such, he can expect between $23,000 and $28,000 per year, with cost-of-living increases .\nThis equates to at least $1 million if he lives to the age of 80 .\nArevalo was fired a month after his disability pension was approved, for the December 2011 shooting death of Stanley Gibson ." } ]

It was one of Hollywood’s best-kept secrets for decades until the truth came out after 60 years. Now Judy Lewis - the secret love child of film stars Clark Gable and Loretta Young, who conceived her on the set of The Call of the Wild in the 1930s - has died of cancer aged 76. Lewis sensationally revealed in her 1994 memoir Uncommon Knowledge that she was conceived in 1935 when Young, 22, and the married Gable, 34, were shooting the classic movie. Young, a single Catholic woman, concealed her pregnancy and placed her daughter in an orphanage at eight months. She brought her into public view at 19 months, saying she was her adopted child. Terrified her secret would come out, Young did all she could to cover up clues about her daughter's origins. There are no photographs of Lewis up to two. Up to seven they show her wearing a bonnet. Lewis recalled: 'My ears stuck out, just like my father's did. So I had plastic surgery when I was seven. My surgeon had told my mother that an operation of this nature was extremely painful. ‘He suggested it should wait until I was older. But she insisted.' Lewis saw her father, who died in 1960, only once, when she was 15. She said of the encounter: 'As he left, he gave me a kiss on my forehead, but I didn't know he was my father. I cry when I watch his films. Why didn't he ride up on a white horse and rescue me?' Scroll down for video . Old Hollywood: Lewis sensationally revealed in her 1994 memoir that she was conceived in 1935 when Loretta Young, 22, and the married Clark Gable, 34, were shooting The Call of the Wild . Secret: Loretta Young is pictured with Judy Lewis in 1944, who did not know for years who her father was . There is a Gone With The Wind scene where Gable plays affectionately with his fictional daughter. 'I like to imagine that he was thinking of me when he was playing those scenes,’ Lewis said. She added that perhaps the famous 'Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn' was a truer reflection of his feelings towards her. ‘At the time, what Loretta Young did was completely successful,’ said Leonard Maltin, a film critic and Hollywood historian. ‘The general public never had any inkling that she had done this. It protected her stardom and her image as a wholesome young woman.’ In 1940, Young married Thomas Lewis, and Judy Lewis took his surname - but she was never formally adopted by her stepfather. Mother and child: Loretta Young is pictured centre with Judy Lewis, left, and a grand-daughter, in 1982 . Disguised: There are no photographs of Judy Lewis up to two. Up to seven they show her wearing a bonnet . Mummy: Her parenthood was an open secret in Hollywood but Lewis's friends were told not to tell her . 'It was very difficult for me as a little girl not to be accepted ... by my mother, who to this day will not publicly acknowledge that I am her biological child,' Lewis said in 1994. 'As he left, he gave me a kiss on my forehead, but I didn't know he was my father. I cry when I watch his films. Why didn't he ride up on a white horse and rescue me?' Judy Lewis . Her parenthood was an open secret in Hollywood but Lewis's friends had been instructed not to tell her. It wasn't until Judy's wedding that her groom Joseph Tinney finally told her that Gable was her father. She was 23. She explained: 'I grew up surrounded by rumours that Clark Gable was my father. Everyone knew who my parents were, even my closest friends, but no one dared tell me. 'It wasn't until the night before I was to get married that my future husband told me who my father was. I had told him my suspicions about my mother being my real mother and that I didn't know who my father was. One meeting: Judy Lewis saw her father Clark Gable, who died in 1960, only once, when she was 15 . No father: Terrified her secret would come out, Young tried to cover up clues about her daughter's origins . ‘He then said: “I know everything. It's common knowledge, Judy. Your father is Clark Gable”.’ 'Twenty-three years of my life had passed and everyone in the world knew about me - but me. I cried then. And I have been crying for most of my life,' said Judy, who had years of therapy. 'Twenty-three years of my life had passed and everyone in the world knew about me - but me. I cried then. And I have been crying for most of my life' Judy Lewis . She was born in Venice, California, and went on to perform on Broadway and TV in her own career. Lewis also produced the soap opera ‘Texas,’ a spinoff of ‘Another World.’ In the 1980s, she earned psychology degrees, advocating for children's rights and counselling teenagers. She later became a psychotherapist in Los Angeles, something she pursued until her illness. In 1994, she wrote ‘Uncommon Knowledge,’ acknowledging her parentage publicly for the first time. ‘The situation in which they found themselves in 1935 would not have posed such a problem in the Hollywood of today,’ Lewis wrote in the book.

The host of 'To Catch a Predator' has been dropped by NBC after working for the network for 20 years. It was announced on Monday that Chris Hansen will not have his contract renewed by NBC and the network gave no explanation for the decision. The move comes just three weeks after his mistress released photos to RadarOnline of her kissing the married TV host, which she said she made public to counter his dismissal of the relationship. Hansen previously said reports of the affair had been 'full of hurtful lies' but 32-year-old Kristyn Caddell proved otherwise with the photo of them kissing. Miss Caddell met 54-year-old Hansen in Palm Beach, Florida, when she was a news reporter for NBC affiliate WPTV. She claimed he led her to believe his 20-year marriage to Mary Joan was ending and he was therefore able to date. The affair was initially reported two years ago by The National Enquirer, but it was not until Friday when any action was taken on part of the network. In his two-decade career at NBC, Hansen has won seven Emmys for his work, as well as a number of awards for excellence in journalism. 'Chris has been a valued member of the team and we thank him for his many contributions to Dateline and NBC News over the last 20 years. We wish him the very best,' NBC said in a statement. Caught on camera: Kristyn Caddell says this photo, allegedly showing Chris Hansen and her kissing, proves their relationship . He already alluded to his future plans, putting out a statement at the same time as the NBC release and saying that he is looking into 'hosting and executive producing projects that will be announced in the coming months'. Hansen, a father of two sons who is best known for his show that worked to arrest sex predators, had previously claimed evidence showing his alleged affair was just a picture of him going out to dinner. 'I understand the perceived irony of the, you know, so-called \"gotcha guy\" getting gotcha-ed,' he said in March last year. 'But what the \"gotcha guy\" got gotcha-ed doing was going out to dinner.' The National Enquirer had revealed the affair after the pair were recorded enjoying a romantic dinner at the Ritz-Carlton hotel in Manalapan, before spending the night at Miss Caddell's Palm Beach apartment. Marital woes: Hansen, seen here with his wife Mary Joan in 2007, initially denied the claims of his affair when they came out two years ago . However, in images Miss Caddell has released, Hansen is shown kissing her. She claims he did not try to hide their relationship at the time, and she believed it was public knowledge before the Enquirer exposed it. 'Chris was flying me all over the country; putting us up in the finest hotels; having dinner and mingling with many of his colleagues; having our photographs taken together in public places ... Chris gave me no reason at all to believe our relationship was a secret and I trusted him explicitly,' she said in an open letter to the Enquirer earlier this month. Miss Caddell said she decided to release the images because the affair was still affecting her ability to find work. She told the National Enquirer that potential employers told her they were put off because of the negative publicity surrounding her. His work: Hansen was best known for his 'gotcha' show To Catch a Predator . 'For the past two years, I was told that it would be in my best interests not to say anything. Let it blow over. Just keep trying to truck along and keep trying to get jobs. “But we are here two years later and I probably don’t go a day without an employer tell me they do not want to hire me because of the situation involving Chris Hansen.'

Thirty-eight of the 317 men who survived the ship's July 1945 sinking and five days in the Pacific's shark-infested waters are still alive, but they're now in their late 80s and early 90s and many use wheelchairs. Harold Bray, an 86-year-old from Benicia, Calif., said he and the 14 other survivors attending this year's reunion decided Friday that any future gatherings will be smaller and less frequent because so many of the survivors are in poor health. Doomed: The USS Indianapolis was sunk by a Japanese torpedo in the South Pacific in 1945. Many crewman survived the blast only to be eaten by sharks . 'We decided to stay together until the last guy's standing, but the goal is to continue at a smaller scale,' said Bray, chairman of the USS Indianapolis Survivors Organization. 'Some of the guys are in wheelchairs now and travel is pretty tough for them.' Bray said the survivors will nonetheless keep telling the story of the ship's sinking, their survival and the role they played in helping bring the war to a close. The USS Indianapolis was halfway between Guam and the Philippines in shark-filled waters when a Japanese submarine sank it with torpedoes on July 30, 1945, in the war's closing weeks. 'Whoom. Up in the air I went,' Loel Dean Cox, who was just 19 when the ship was torpedo, told the BBC about the first explosion. 'There was water, debris, fire, everything . just coming up and we were 81ft (25m) from the water line. It was a . tremendous explosion. Then, about the time I got to my knees, another . one hit. Whoom' The second torpedo nearly tore the ship in half. Cox said fires raged below deck as the ship began listing onto its side. Rescue: Of the 1,197 men aboard the Indianapolis when it sank, only 317 survived after nearly a week lost at sea . 'I turned and looked back. The ship was headed straight down. You . could see the men jumping from the stern, and you could see the four . propellers still turning. 'Twelve minutes. Can you imagine a ship 610ft long, that's . two football fields in length, sinking in 12 minutes? It just rolled . over and went under.' Just days earlier, the Indianapolis had visited the island of Tinian in a secret mission to deliver the uranium-235 and other components for the atomic bomb later dropped on Hiroshima by the Enola Gay, which took off from the remote island. The Indianapolis' mission was so secret she sailed alone, unescorted by ships better equipped to detect and fight Japanese submarines. The ship's commander had even requested an escort but was denied by Navy officials. Additionally, the Navy failed to pass on information that Japanese submarines were still active in the area. Survivors: The crew of USS Ohio salute during a special burial ceremony at sea for Indianapolis survivor Eugene Morgan . 'I never saw a life raft. I finally heard some moans and groans and . yelling and swam over and got with a group of 30 men and that's where I . stayed,' Cox said. 'We figured that if we could just hold out for a couple of days they'd pick us up.' The Indianapolis sent several SOS signals before it became submerged, but the message wasn't taken seriously. Nor did Navy officials take much notice when the ship failed to arrive at its destination on time. An estimated 900 of the ship's servicemen survived the vessel's nighttime sinking, but before rescuers arrived five days later, drowning, delirium, dehydration and shark attacks had claimed all but 317 of the men. The Indianapolis' death toll - 880 members out of a crew of 1,197 died - is the U.S. Navy's worst single at-sea loss of life. But reports of the tragedy were buried by the news of the Japanese surrender, and interest in the ship's story was not revived until the 1975 movie \"Jaws\" featured a character who told of the sinking and the survivors' days of agony. The sharks came from miles away to feast on the carnage from the wreck. They then started eating those who had survived the explosions. 'We were sunk at midnight, I saw [a shark] the first . morning after daylight. They were big. Some of them I swear were 15ft . long,' Cox said. Justin Wray, left, a Navy recruiter in Indianapolis, speaks to USS Indianapolis survivor Clarence Hershberger . 'They were continually there, mostly feeding off the dead . bodies. Thank goodness, there were lots of dead people floating in the . area. 'We were losing three or four each night and day,' Cox said. 'You were constantly in fear because you'd see 'em all the time. Every . few minutes you'd see their fins - a dozen to two dozen fins in the . water. 'They would come up and bump you. I was bumped a few times - you never know when they are going to attack you.' As the sharks continued to attack, clouds of blood in the water grew and attracted more to the area, leading to even more attacks. 'In that clear water you could see the sharks circling. Then every now . and then, like lightning, one would come straight up and take a sailor . and take him straight down. One came up and took the sailor next to me. It was just somebody screaming, yelling or getting bit,' Cox said. Edgar Harrell, an 89-year-old from Clarksville, Tenn., who is one of only two ex-Marines among the remaining survivors, said the horrors he witnessed - including sharks devouring men around him - became too much for him to bear after he returned home. Reunion: 38 of the Indianapolis' 317 survivors are still alive. In their 80s and 90s, many are now in poor health . While many survivors kept what they saw and heard to themselves, Harrell said the lingering trauma he'd suffered left him unable to focus on the college courses he enrolled in immediately after the war. 'I learned early on that you had to get it out, you had to tell others what happened,' he said. 'Once I did it was a relief.' Clarence Hershberger, an 87-year-old survivor from De Leon Springs, Fla., who uses a wheelchair, hadn't planned on attending the reunion, which ends Sunday. He'd been feeling poorly but decided Monday to make the trip to Indianapolis, where a black granite memorial honors the ship and its crew. He said that when all of the survivors are gone he hopes the survivors' relatives and others keep reminding the public about the ship and its crew's sacrifice. 'Somebody's got to keep the story alive,' Hershberger said. Among the roughly 250 friends and relatives of the survivors attending the reunion is Hunter Scott, whose seventh-grade history project as a 12-year-old from Pensacola, Fla., helped lead to a reassessment of the court-martial of the ship's commanding officer, Rear Admiral Charles B. McVay III. McVay was court-martialed for not sailing a zigzag course to evade submarines, but his men believed he was made a scapegoat. In 2000, 32 years after McVay committed suicide, Congress passed an act clearing his name. Scott is now a 28-year-old Navy helicopter pilot based in California and he said the men's incredible story of survival convinced him to enlist in the Navy. 'There's 38 of them left and I really wanted to see these guys and catch up. They're like grandfathers to me, it's like seeing family,' he said. \"They're heroes.\"" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "The Indianapolis was torpedoed in the South Pacific in July 1945 after delivering parts for the atomic bomb to bomber bases on the island of Tinian .\nSurvivors of the blasts spent nearly a week in shark-infested waters fighting off attacks .\nOf the ships 1,197 crewmen, only 317 survived ." } ]

The 29-year-old has taken to his account to post his new rants in response to reports that ISIS fighters fear they will not meet 72 virgins in paradise if they are killed by Kurdish female fighters.

Turkey is pursuing a delicate but potentially dangerous strategy over the besieged Syrian town of Kobane . This is one of the latest pictures of war-torn West Aleppo, Syria after a reported US led air strike . Mr Cerantonio says in his latest post on an online blog that is 'utter nonsense'. He said: 'There is absolutely nothing in Islam which teaches that a person cannot go to Paradise if killed by a woman. 'In fact the opposite is more likely to be true, that a person who is killed and dies as a martyr who fought for the sake of Allah is guaranteed a place in Paradise regardless of the gender of the one who kills him.' He explains it is 'well known' Prophet Mohammed died after being poisoned by a woman. A picture of female Kurdish fighter only known as 'Rehana' went viral earlier this year after it was reported she had killed 'scores' of IS fighters. The photo of the young girl, wearing military gear and holding a gun, and showing a victory salute went viral, it was reported she had been beheaded by IS but the rumours turned out to be false. Cerantonio (pictured) talks about how jihadi fighters will still go to Paradise if they are killed by a woman, Kurdish fighter 'Rehana' (pictured right) was supposedly beheaded by IS but the reports were incorrect . Police say that although his social media postings are 'considered offensive and disturbing' but have not breached Australian law .

The bizarre 'emotional labour' rules mean employees of the popular sandwich chain are expected to be 'charming', to 'have presence', and to 'care about other people's happiness', and should never be 'moody', or 'just here for the money'. Mystery shoppers visit branches every week to ensure all staff are displaying 'Pret perfect' behaviour. Pret perfect! The ideal employee 'cares about other people's happiness' and is not 'just here for the money', according to a list of Pret 'behaviours' that has been removed from the chain's website . While 'friendly' and tactile employees who high-five colleagues as encouragement and 'create a sense of fun' would be welcomed by the chain, Pret does not want to see a team-member who doesn't interact with others or 'minces words'. The firm's chief executive, Clive Schee, has previously said that whenever he visits a Pret branch the first thing he checks is whether staff are touching one another, declaring: 'I can almost predict sales on body language alone'. CEO: Clive Schee has said he checks to see whether staff are touching each other when he visits Pret branches . If staff at a Pret branch get a positive report after a visit from a mystery shopper, the whole team gets a bonus. But should the visitor encounter an employee who is insufficiently 'enthusiastic', or worse, 'bad-tempered', everybody misses out. Details of the chain's list of 'Pret perfect' behaviours emerged online after an essay in the London Review of Books exposed its reliance on 'affective' or emotional labour, a term used to describe work carried out with the aim of producing a - usually positive - emotional response in a person. It flagged up the list of more than 50 'behaviours' drawn up by the chain as part of its efforts to ensure its staff make customers feel good when they visit a store. It appears the list, which included 17 things Pret 'don't want to see', 18 they 'want to see', and 17 under the heading 'Pret perfect!', has since been taken down from the firm's website. Pret said its guidelines are for internal use only. A spokesman for Pret said: 'The reason guidelines are not published on the website is that they are for internal use for staff and the website is an external facing platform for communications with customers.' Pret's policy also raised eyebrows in the U.S., where another blog post on Newrepublic.com said of the list: 'Pret doesn't merely want its employees to lend their minds and bodies; it wants their souls too.' Pret came under scrutiny after an employee who was sacked from the branch at York Way, near St Pancras Station, towards the end of last year, for making homophobic comments towards a colleague. Andrej Stopa appealed, claiming the real reason he was fired was because he had spearheaded the establishment of an independent union for Pret workers. 'This member of staff was dismissed for bullying and homophobic behaviour,' said Pret spokesman Keith Beech. 'He went through the appeals process and it was decided in Pret's favour.' Mr Beech pointed out that the independent union for Pret workers, Pamsu, had fewer than ten members, and added that employees were free to join any union they chose. He said the practice of sending mystery shoppers to visit Pret branches was well-established. 'They send people to go into each shop and make sure that customers are being looked after,' he said. He added that it was a way of giving Pret staff cash incentives to provide good customer service." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Pret staff must 'be charming', 'have presence', and create a 'sense of fun'\nEmployees should not 'annoy people' or be 'moody' or 'bad-tempered'\nMystery shoppers visit weekly to ensure 'Pret behaviours' are on show ." } ]

Teachers have stepped up security measures after pupils aged ten were told they would be ‘beaten up’ during a school trip. Now children at the North London school are practising how to hide under their desks if a terrorist breaks into their classroom and opens fire. A police officer waves to a child as members of the Jewish community wait to cross a road in north London - Police have been working closely with Jewish organisations to step up security arrangements after Paris . The drill, called ‘sleeping lions’ shows the children how to cover their heads with their hands and remain silent so as not to give away their hiding place. The school has also installed CCTV and drafted in police to give training to staff on what to do if a gunman storms the building. The primary, which is not being named for security reasons, said the new measures were necessary in the wake of the terrorist atrocities in France. And the head teacher said that other Jewish schools were adopting similar plans after being contacted by worried parents. A school leader who asked to be known simply as Rabbi Jacob told the Daily Mail: ‘There have been two incidents of verbal abuse in the last year. ‘That’s what brought me to understand that we might now be living in a different environment compared with previous years. ‘The fear is that those people who are making nasty comments might decide to take it one step further and harm a child.’ The Rabbi said teachers were shocked when several 10-year-old pupils were targeted while on a school trip in July. A group of men in their early 20s approached the children and told them they would be ‘beaten up’ unless Israel freed Palestine. In October, antisemitic abuse was shouted at an 11-year-old boy while he rode the tube to school. In the wake of the incidents, children have been ordered to wear baseball caps rather than their traditional skullcaps so that they cannot be identified as Jewish. The primary school, which is not being named for security reasons, said the new measures were necessary in the wake of the terrorist atrocitiy at a Kosher deli in Paris earlier this month when four hostages were killed . He added: ‘The children didn’t even understand why they were being shouted at. They’re too young to know about the politics of the Middle East. It was very sad. ‘The fact that someone feels that they have the right to treat a 10-year-old like that is appalling. ‘The idea that every Jew in the world should be responsible for the Middle East is outrageous. ‘Some of the older children are upset about not wearing their skullcaps. They’ve been brought up to be proud of who they are. ‘But we don’t want to take any risks when it comes to their safety.’ One of the pupils told BBC Radio 4: ‘Sometimes I’m very worried about the current situation because after Paris, it could happen to England.’ It comes after four Jewish hostages were killed by Amedy Coulibaly when he targeted a kosher supermarket in Paris earlier this month. Reports claimed that Coulibaly’s intended target had been a Jewish school in the south of Paris. Security agencies on both sides of the Channel warned this week that future attacks were ‘highly likely’. Many Jewish schools in the UK already have robust security thanks to around £1.6 million a year in contributions from parents to help keep pupils safe. New York city mayor Bill de Blasio lays a wreath of flowers at memorial flowers and candles at the kosher grocery where jihadist Amedy Coulibaly killed four people in a terror attack in Paris earlier this month . The Government contributes £2 million per year towards security, while the Community Security Trust (CST), which monitors anti-Semitism in Britain, adds about £500,000 each year. A CST spokesman said: ‘We spend an inordinate amount of money on security, particularly on our schools – as we should. ‘Obviously there’s a change in the threat level [after last week’s attacks] as there could be people who might be perversely inspired by what they saw happen.’ In France, 5,000 police officers and army troops have already been stationed outside Jewish schools. Although its figures will not be released until next month, the CST has predicted that the number of anti-Semitic attacks in 2014 will be the highest recorded in the past 30 years in the UK. Earlier this week, Education Secretary Nicky Morgan has said she was ‘open to conversations’ about toughening up security at Jewish schools amid heightened fear of a terror attack. She said: ‘I think it is truly shocking as the Home Secretary said today that in our lifetimes we are seeing a rise of anti-Semitism in this country and in particular in relation to my role in Government that Jewish schools are having to worry ever more about their security.’ Describing the new drill, one child told BBC Radio 4: ‘When an alarm goes off we do a thing called sleeping lions. ‘We all go under our desks and cover our heads with our hands. ‘Luckily it hasn’t been real yet.’ Another said: ‘You always feel like you have to pretend it’s a real situation and be as silent as possible even though you probably know that there’s no-one there.

Well, it’s bad news for believers, as one man has gone to extreme lengths to lift the lid on ‘psychics,’ revealing the tricks they use to con innocent people out of thousands of pounds and give them false hope. In his book, Psychic Blues: Confessions of a Conflicted Medium, Mark Edward, 62, from Los Angeles, explains how he became a spirit medium and psychic entertainer, then later used these skills to ‘scam the scammers.’ Scroll down for video . Mark Edward appeared on This Morning to reveal the scams and tricks that 'psychic' healers use on innocent people . 'I saw how easy it was and saw it happening. I thought; \"If they can do it I can,\"' says Mark Edward of his book Psychic Blues: Confessions of a Conflicted Medium . Mark started his 25-year career in the 'magic of the mind industry', performing in clubs, theatres, and at many corporate events. He says his act was entertainment-based and that he never promised he had genuine magical or spiritual powers. Talking to Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield on This Morning, Edward explained how he used his skills to infiltrate those that did claim to have these gifts. He said: ‘People want answers. I saw how easy it was and saw it happening. I thought; “If they can do it, I can.”’ Philip Schofield questions Mark Edward on his expose of psychics and mediums on This Morning, as part of their Supernatural Week . ‘So that’s where the ideas came to get in, to infiltrate and write the book to expose it. ‘I realised the power of charisma and suggestion. I learned about giving readings.’ Edward . unveils the scams that thousands of psychics use, including ‘Cold . Reading,’ where mediums claim to have superior psychic knowledge but . it’s actually based on nothing at all. By . examining their client’s body language and observing what Edward says . are their, ‘random generalities,’ the mediums can quite easily find that . person’s vulnerability. ‘Once you get the hook, everything else falls . into place,’ he said. ‘It’s all pretty standard stuff.’ The more recent trend of seeing a psychic over Skype throws up another common scam that many people aren’t aware of. In . the US the customer will pay in advance by credit card for the psychic . session, upon which the ‘psychic’ on the other end will not only receive . the money but be able to see the payer’s itemised credit card history. They can use this information to make themselves seem more credible. If someone tells you they know exactly . where you brought that new pair of shoes last week, you’d be forgiven . for thinking they were genuine. Fortunately for Brits, whilst the scam is . common practice and perfectly legitimate in the US, using credit card . details in this way is illegal in the UK. Fraud? By examining their client's body language, Mark Edward says medium's can assess their personality and 'hook' them in . ‘It’s not a gift,’ says Edward. ‘It’s maybe a skill. I call it fraud. ‘I have met people who are very intuitive and sensitive but there is nothing supernatural about them. They just assess information that most people don’t think about.’ He also explained how he held séances for purposes of the book, to prove how easy they are to create the illusion that there are supernatural powers. ‘It’s a lot about darkness,’ he said. ‘In pitch black you can suggest all sorts of things. ‘Linking hands creates incredible tension. People want stuff to happen. It’s easy to feel a cold breeze or tap on the shoulder and think no one is in the room. It’s a simple but traditional con.’ Edward justified what he did, saying that performing at an event or children’s birthday party and charging money for the entertainment was one thing, but giving people false hope and leading them to believe things that they actually had no claim over was very different. ‘It’s ok to go to a party and get a palm reading, you don’t expect them to get a hook in you,’ he said. ‘But you’re told that you need another reading, you need to buys this candle, it’s a scam.’" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Mark Edward, 62, from Los Angeles, lifts lid on scams used by psychics .\n'I saw how easy it was so decided to infiltrate and expose,' he says ." } ]

Workers stand by a pile of elephant tusks, systematically weighing each one on a large red Avery scale. Behind them, rows of tall metal shelves recede into the gloom. They are stacked solid with tusks, each pair the sole remnant of a once-magnificent elephant. Cruel trade: Martin Fletcher visits the world's largest ivory stockpile in Tanzania, containing more than 34,000 tusks which would be worth about £150million on China's black market . More tusks lie in sacks on the concrete floor. It is an appalling, sickening sight. This . is the world’s largest ivory stockpile. More than 34,000 tusks weighing . roughly 125 tons are stored in the warehouse behind the Ministry of . Natural Resources and Tourism in Dar es Salaam. They would be worth . about £150 million on China’s black market. Some were taken from elephants that died naturally or turned rogue. Many thousands were seized from poachers or their middlemen and cannot be sold because international trade in ivory is banned. They are black, brown and dirty white. A few bear the marks of the machetes used to hack them from the elephants. Others were sawn off. The biggest is nearly 7ft long, weighs 191 lb and takes three people to lift. The shortest measure scarcely a foot and were ripped from babies – testimony to the indiscriminate slaughter of the poachers who kill 30 Tanzanian elephants a day and have destroyed half the country’s 110,000 elephants since 2009. Elephant graveyard: Emilian Mhelela, a game scout at the Selous game reserve where the number of elephants have been reduced from 70,000 elephants in 2006 to 13,000 . The stockpile is a shrine to human greed. Its only redeeming feature is that the tusks were intercepted before they were smuggled to Asia, but the amount of ivory that passes undetected though Tanzania’s ports is far greater. The country is easily the world’s biggest exporter of this illicit ‘white gold’. The Mail on Sunday was given exclusive access to the warehouse after publishing an article, just before last month’s London summit on the illegal wildlife trade, that asked how the Prince of Wales and Prime Minister could shake the hand of Jakaya Kikwete, the Tanzanian leader who has presided over such a slaughter. We reported that many politicians, . officials and well-connected businessmen were active accomplices in the . illegal ivory trade, and that there was corruption from top to bottom. The article caused uproar in Tanzania. A well-placed source said President Kikwete was ‘hopping mad’. His . office denounced the article as ‘malicious, preposterous and . contemptible’. His government consulted British public relations . advisers. But the article had a dramatic effect. Before leaving for the London summit, Mr Kikwete summoned senior wildlife officials, tearing up his prepared notes as he angrily demanded that they do better. Then, at the summit, he astounded the conservation world by announcing that Tanzania would put its vast stockpile ‘beyond economic use’ and support a continued ban on international trade in ivory. That was an astonishing U-turn. Three times in eight years Tanzania had unsuccessfully sought approval from the 180-nation Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) to sell its stockpile – despite overwhelming evidence that one-off sales merely fuel China’s appetite for ivory. ‘The article shamed the president in front of the world,’ said one source. ‘He really had to come and say something concrete at the summit,’ said another. There was one more surprise. Lazaro Nyalandu, the Minister for Natural Resources and Tourism, invited The Mail on Sunday to Tanzania. ‘We have nothing to hide,’ he said. My visit included a trip to the Selous game reserve, a spectacularly beautiful wilderness and Unesco World Heritage Site double the size of Wales, where the shocking scale of Tanzania’s poaching frenzy became clear. Selous had 70,000 elephants in 2006. Barely 13,000 survive. At the peak of the onslaught rotting carcasses defiled the reserve’s woodlands, savannahs and swamps, and tourists could hear shooting from their lodges. For the better part of two days, Benson Kibonde, the reserve’s chief warden, and I jolted along in a Toyota Land Cruiser, scattering giraffes and impalas, zebras and warthogs, baboons and waterbuck. Countless hippos wallowed in the swollen brown waters of the Rufiji river. My visit coincided with the rainy season, so the elephants had wandered far from their usual watering holes, but during those two days we saw just one, a bull who retreated into the bush. Only from the air did we spot more – three here, six there – sad remnants of once abundant herds. Even carcasses are becoming rarer as poachers seek richer pickings elsewhere in Tanzania. The . only one we saw was a month old – a scattering of hefty white bones . picked clean by hyenas and jackals. That is what Selous has become: an . elephant graveyard. ‘It’s a . tragedy,’ Mr Kibonde said. Mr Nyalandu is young, engaging, smartly . dressed and US-educated. He visits the University of Buckingham one . weekend a month to pursue a Master’s degree in international relations. He is also a good talker. He acknowledged that corruption was ‘huge’ and that The Mail on Sunday article ‘really got a lot of people thinking’. He . said poaching was the country’s ‘number one national security problem’ and insisted the president was determined to defeat it. Questioning power: The original Mail on Sunday article that left Tanzanian president Jakaya Kikwete 'hopping mad', published last month . Not so long ago the Tanzanian government denied there was even a problem. Mr Nyalandu declared that Operation Tokomeza, a very effective military-led crackdown on poachers which was suspended after a month last autumn because of human rights abuses, would soon be relaunched with strict safeguards. He added that his ministry’s wildlife division would be relaunched this year as an autonomous wildlife authority with greater powers. He promised more game scouts with better equipment, tougher penalties for poaching and a crackdown on corrupt port officials, customs officers and police. ‘We are serious about doing everything, and I mean everything, to save the elephants,’ he said. Well, almost everything. What Mr Nyalandu failed to address was the crucial issue of high-level complicity in Tanzania’s illegal ivory trade. Nobody seriously contends that 11,000 elephants a year can be killed in a one-party state with a strong security apparatus, or that their tusks can be spirited across the country and out of its ports, without the help of powerful patrons. Mr Nyalandu himself told the BBC last month that he ‘had the names of politicians, senior people’. The Mail on Sunday has been told that Mr Kikwete received a dossier from his intelligence services last year listing the names and roles of nearly 50 senior politicians, officials and businessmen involved in the ivory trade, most with links to his Chama Cha Mapinduzi party. None has been arrested and convicted. Under threat: Poachers kill 30 Tanzanian elephants a day and have destroyed half the country's 110,000 elephants since 2009 . Nobody accuses Mr Kikwete of involvement in smuggling, but one authoritative source said: ‘He finds it very difficult to go after anybody related to him or his friends.’ Mr Nyalandu also revealed that the destruction of Tanzania’s stockpile was far from certain, despite Mr Kikwete’s London pledge. He said the president was willing to burn it, but in return Tanzania wanted roughly £30 million from the international community for an elephant conservation fund. Potential Western donors scoff at that unrealistically high figure. The warehouse, I discover, is hardly Fort Knox. It has two sliding steel doors with five heavy padlocks whose keys are divided between two chief storemen, but the doors were wide open when I arrived. Each tusk is marked and catalogued, and the warehouse has internal security cameras, but I saw no armed guards outside. Ivory has allegedly been stolen from the stockpile in the past and in 2009 the inventory was destroyed in a mysterious fire. In Selous, at least, there is now a glimmer of hope for the elephants thanks to Mr Kibonde, an ebullient character whose energy and drive belie his 62 years. He is short of weapons, vehicles and manpower, but has started moulding his scouts into a force capable of fighting the poaching gangs. He has imported 220 hand-picked volunteers to boost the 250 existing scouts and has formed 75 six-man patrols. As a result, Mr Kibonde believes the poaching frenzy in Selous is finally starting to abate. ‘Our children will curse us if we don’t do what were supposed to do,’ he says. Now Tanzania desperately needs at national level what Mr Kibonde brings to Selous: strong leadership willing to tackle a corrupt elite. But nobody is holding their breath." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Mail on Sunday's Martin Fletcher goes inside the warehouse in Tanzania .\nDar es Salaam holds 34,000 tusks ripped from 17,000 elephants .\nThe tusks would be worth some £150million on China's black market .\nBiggest is nearly 7ft long, weighs 191lb and takes three people to lift .\nLast month, MoS asked how Prince of Wales and Cameron could shake the hand of the Tazanian PM who has presided over slaughter .\nMinister for Natural .\nResources and Tourism invited MoS to Tanzania .\n‘We have .\nnothing to hide,’ Lazaro Nyalandu said ." } ]

An Oxford University librarian has lost her job after students filmed themselves doing the latest dance craze on her watch. Calypso Nash, 23, was dismissed from St Hilda’s College after a video that shows students noisily performing a ‘Harlem Shake’ in the college library appeared on YouTube. The dance became an internet sensation last month when five Australian teenagers posted online footage of themselves gyrating to a song of the same name, by US artist DJ Baauer. A petition has now been started by students, and the culprits, to have the librarian reinstated as she was 'not in the position to stop it'. Ms Nash was working there that night but had nothing to do with organising the event and had not been asked if it could go ahead. In the video, posted on YouTube, a group of around 30 students are shown studying quietly in the grand surroundings of St Hilda's. Then a youngster dressed as an American footballer is seen dancing before the film cuts to all the students doing the Harlem Shake craze in fancy dress. Another is dressed as a member of the jailed Russian pop group Pussy Riot, while others donned horses heads, a furry badger costume or appeared as weight lifters and a skier. Some were seen dancing in the library aisles, while others were seen standing on chairs and on tables. However, the 30-second long video clip, which has had more than 5,000 views, has sparked outrage amongst the senior staff members of the 120-year-old Oxford University College. All the students who had been identified as taking part in the video have been fined by the Dean. Scroll down for video . Prank: A group of students sit quietly in the library as a person in an American Football helmet dances alone . Change: The YouTube video then cuts to the whole group dancing, but the innocent fun has cost Calypso her job . Librarian and graduate student Calypso Nash was sacked for not preventing the Harlem Shake taking place. Oxford University said: 'This is a matter for St Hilda’s College, they say they do not wish to make a comment at this time.' Today students want Miss Nash back in her job as she just happened to be there at the time and are also calling for the fines to be rescinded as they shot the video late at night as not to disturb anyone studying. At St Hilda's Junior Common Room weekly meeting, students passed a motion calling for the immediate reinstatement of the librarian. As a result of the vote the JCR president Esther Gosling is to 'ask for a written reason for the decision from the Head Librarian, and also to bring the matter to the attention of the governing body, calling in the strongest terms for Calypso to be rehired.' Battle: Students at St Hilda's (pictured) have started a petition to have Miss Nash reinstated as she was powerless to stop it . Miss Gosling will also be writing to the Dean to seek the fines imposed being overturned because 'the Harlem shake did not cause a disturbance coming as it did at 11:30 pm on a Sunday evening - and that the event - only lasted roughly seven minutes.' Ellen Gibson, a student at St Hilda's, said: 'The situation seems ridiculous. 'The Librarian had nothing to do with the protest; she just happened to be there at the time.' Another Hilda's student said of Calypso's sacking: 'She was not in a position to stop them at the time' JCR Secretary Katie Meadon said: 'We are not trying to deliberately undermine any decisions made by college authorities, but we, and the rest of the JCR, believe that the dismissal of the librarian in question was unfair.

Torrents of water turn the streets of Mawsynram in north east India into waterfalls and the constant deluge leaves families plugging leaking homes. Power lines topple under the weight of the cascading rivers, animals seek shelter where they can and locals have learned never to leave home without a brolly. Downpours: Mawsynram in north east India is the wettest place in the world. Villagers have created turtle shell-like covers to protect them from the deluge while they work in the fields . Wettest place on Earth: The village, which lies close to the border with Bangladesh, is battered by an average of 11,871mm, nearly 12metres, of rain a year . Drenched: Locals in the village have learned never to leave home without an umbrella . In a bid to shelter from the downpours villagers have even created specially made reed-turtle shell-like baskets to protect them as they work in the fields. But no-one in the mountainous village, close to the border with Bangladesh, is heard complaining as the monsoons bring a welcome boost as tourists flock to the area and the dry season leaves many facing a desperate hunt for water. While the UK has suffered a wash out in the last week, the hapless villagers in Mawsynram cope with the chaos caused by 11metres or 467ins of rain each year - more than 20 times the average rainfall in London. And neighbouring Cherrapunji - dubbed the second wettest place on earth - does not escape the violent weather. Waterfalls: Torrents of water immerse the village's streets . Boost: The severe downpours do provide locals with a welcome income boost as tourists flock to the area to witness the spectacle . Monsoon: While India's wet season runs from June to September, northern areas like Mawsynram experience an extended monsoon period . In June 1995 the village was hit by the greatest rainful in a 24-hour period when more than 5ft of rain fell. Photographer Johnny Haglund, 47, explained how the villages live under these extreme conditions. 'For the last few years, the streams of tourist to visit Cherrapunji and Mawsynram have increased,' he said. 'They come here to see the rain during the wet season which gives the inhabitants a well needed extra income. 'The locals told me that the dry season is worse than the wet in many ways, because they actually have problems to find water for drinking and washing.' The area of north east India is so wet . because rainclouds, which form in the summer, are trapped from escaping . north into Tibet by the world's highest mountain range, the Himalayas. No complaints: Locals say the dry season, from December to February, is worse, leaving many struggling to find water . Chaos: The violent downpours cause chaos, pulling down power lines and creating treacherous conditions on the roads . India's . main monsoon season runs from June to September, but Mawsynram . experiences a longer rainy season that other parts of the country. It seldom gets hot in the region with average monthly temperatures ranging from 10C in January to just over 20C in August. The noticeably drier months run from December through to February, where monthly precipitation reaches a meager 60mm. 'I always try to catch the daily life as it is when I am not there. I like to show people how a place looks like and how people who live there go by,' Mr Haglund added. 'I try to be a 'fly on the wall', because people often change their behavior when they have guests and know they are being photographer. 'People find these photographs very interesting, we love talking about how bad the weather is here in England, but here we see how people actually cope with extreme weather.' The driest place on Earth, South America's Atacana desert, fails to see even half-an-inch of rainfall each year and some parts of the desert have not seen a rain shower in the last 500 years.
