The conference attendees, who are all from militaries that allow transgender service, gathered in Washington, DC. The gathering, Perspectives on Transgender Military Service from Around the Globe, is the first-ever and largest international conference of transgender military service members on US soil. Transgender Major Alexandra Larsson of the Swedish Armed Forces speaks during a conference entitled 'Perspectives on Transgender Military Service from Around the Globe' The conference was organized by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the Palm Center in Washington . The conference included currently serving transgender personnel from the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Sweden. An estimated 15,500 transgender individuals currently serve in the US military, but they are banned by Pentagon rules from serving, and if their identity is discovered, the military is required to discharge them. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) supports the elimination of rules that ban transgender people from openly serving in the military, her office told the Washington Blade. Drew Hammill, a Pelosi spokesperson, told the Blade on Friday she believes gender identity should not be a factor in prohibiting Americans from serving in the military. 'Leader Pelosi believes there is no place for discrimination in the U.S. Armed Forces, including on the basis of gender identity,' Hammill said. Earlier this year a report found there is 'no compelling medical reason' for U.S. armed forced to ban transgender Americans from serving.

They also discussed at the conference whether the US military could join them . Earlier this year a report found there is 'no compelling medical reason' for U.S. armed forced to ban transgender Americans from serving . The independent commission led by a former U.S. surgeon general also concluded that President Obama could lift the decades-old ban without approval from Congress. About 15,500 transgender personnel are currently serving, nearly all under their birth genders and not transitioning in an appearance-altering way, according to the Williams Institute, a think tank. Dr. Joycelyn Elders, who served as surgeon general during Bill Clinton's first term as president, and Rear Adm. Alan Steinman, a former chief health and safety director for the Coast Guard, led the report that was released on Thursday. 'We determined not only that there is no compelling medical reason for the ban, but also that the ban itself is an expensive, damaging and unfair barrier to health care access for the approximately 15,450 transgender personnel who serve currently in the active, Guard and reserve components,' it said. The panel, convened by a think tank at San Francisco State University, said the ban has existed for several decades and apparently was derived in part from the psychiatric establishment's consensus, since revised, that gender identity issues amounted to a mental disorder.

The ban has existed for several decades and apparently was derived in part from the psychiatric establishment's consensus, since revised, that gender identity issues amounted to a mental disorder . The ban also appears based on the assumption that providing hormone treatment and sex reassignment surgeries would be too difficult, disruptive and expensive . Transgender Major Alexandra Larsson of the Swedish Armed Forces speaks at the conference . The ban also appears based on the assumption that providing hormone treatment and sex reassignment surgeries would be too difficult, disruptive and expensive. But the commission rejected those notions as inconsistent with modern medical practice and the scope of health care services routinely provided to non-transgender military personnel. 'I hope their takeaway will be we should evaluate every one of our people on the basis of their ability and what they can do, and if they have a condition we can treat we would treat it like we would treat anyone else,' Elders said in an interview with The Associated Press. At least a dozen nations, including Australia, Canada, England and Israel, allow military service by transgender individuals. Transgender rights advocates have been lobbying the Pentagon to revisit the blanket ban in the U.S. since Congress in 2010 repealed the law that barred gay, lesbian and bisexual individuals from openly serving in the military . The commission argued that facilitating gender transitions 'would place almost no burden on the military,' adding that a relatively small number of active and reserve service members would elect to undergo transition-related surgeries and that only a fraction might suffer complications that would prevent them from serving. It estimated that 230 transgender people a year would seek such surgery at an average cost of about $30,000. Retired Brigadier General Thomas Kolditz, a former Army commander and West Point professor on the commission, said he thinks allowing transgender people to serve openly would reduce gender-based harassment, assaults and suicides while enhancing national security. But Center for Military Readiness President Elaine Donnelly, whose group opposed the repeal of the ban on openly gay troops, predicted that putting transgender people in barracks, showers and other sex-segregated could cause sexual assaults to increase and infringe on the privacy of non-transgender personnel. 'This is putting an extra burden on men and women in the military that they certainly don't need and they don't deserve,' Donnelly said." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "The conference attendees gathered in Washington, DC on Monday .\nAt least 18 nations, including Australia, Canada, England and Israel, allow military service by transgender individuals .\nGathering is first international conference of transgender military service members on US soil .\nAbout 15,500 transgender individuals currently serve in US military secretly ." } ]

The department on Wednesday confirmed it opened an investigation on Oct. 9 after the woman reported the incident to authorities. The alleged victim was 13 years old when she claims Collins exposed himself to her in West Hollywood, California, in 1983. Special Victims Unit detectives are investigating the actor for indecent exposure and whether he annoyed or molested a child, the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department said in a news release. The woman reported the incident two days after New York police confirmed they had an open investigation into decades-old allegations that Collins molested a family acquaintance in Manhattan in the early 1970s. The revelation came after celebrity news site TMZ disclosed the investigation. Scroll down for video . Investigated: A woman told authorities former '7th Heaven' star Stephen Collins exposed himself to her when she was 13 years old in1983 . Divorcing: Faye Grant, seen with Collins,  included allegations that her husband molested underage girls in court filings in their ongoing divorce . The alleged victim was related to one of Collins' Havenhurst Drive neighbors, law enforcement sources told TMZ. That would coincide with information from Lt. Steve Katz, who told the Los Angeles Times activity at an apartment complex on the street is being reviewed. A voice that appears to be Collins's mentions in an audio tape -  secretly made by wife Faye Grant during a marriage therapy session and obtained by TMZ - a third victim, who he says 'was the niece of the woman who lived across the way. At [redacted]. 'She is someone I actually saw about 12 or 15 years ago I made an amends to,' he continues. Collins' attorney, Mark Vincent Kaplan, did not immediately return phone or email messages from The Associated Press. Collins, 67, has not been charged in Los Angeles or New York. Faye Grant included allegations that her husband molested underage girls in court filings in their ongoing divorce. Collins filed to divorce his wife in 2012, and a trial to divide the pair's assets is scheduled for next month. Within hours of TMZ posting its story, two networks announced they were canceling scheduled re-runs of '7th Heaven,' and Collins lost roles in the upcoming film 'Ted 2' and this season of the ABC series 'Scandal.' MailOnline earlier reported that it obtained divorce files, in which Grant said 'Obviously I am sickened by Stephen's actions. I have urged Stephen multiple times to seek proper treatment for pedophilia. 'I am particularly afraid of what may happen if he does not seek treatment, because he may be working or interacting with children in connection with his employment.' Grant wrote in a sworn court declaration in Los Angeles last year that her husband had disclosed he molested at least three young girls. She wrote that she reported the alleged abuse to Los Angeles police, who have said they are not actively investigating the actor. Fallout: Two networks have announced they were canceling scheduled re-runs of '7th Heaven,' and Collins lost roles in the upcoming film 'Ted 2' and this season of the ABC series 'Scandal' Television star: Stephen Collins played the Rev. Eric Camden in the WB family drama '7th Heaven' 'Stephen admitted that he has engaged in a long-term pattern of sexually abusing minor children, including sexually molesting three young girls over a decade ago,' Grant wrote in the sworn declaration, which was filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court in November. Kaplan, Collins' attorney, has declined to discuss specifics about the claims, but he has described the accusations as an attempt by Grant to obtain a more favorable settlement of the couple's divorce. The filings do not include a denial of the molestation allegations, but attack Grant's use of them as 'an attempt to extort concessions in settlement' from Collins. Grant said in a statement last week that was not trying to obtain an undue advantage in the divorce proceedings. 'This is a deeply sad situation for everyone involved,' Grant wrote. 'With regard to the divorce proceedings, I am seeking no more than that to which I am legally entitled under the laws of the State of California.' Collins has worked steadily in television and movie roles since the early 1970s, with appearances in movies such as 'All the President's Men,' 'Star Trek: The Motion Picture' and recurring roles on series such as 'No Ordinary Family,' 'Revolution' and 'Devious Maids' after '7th Heaven' concluded its 11-season run in 2007.

Provide a succinct and relevant summary of the provided text." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Unknown: The ritually slaughtered meat could be present the non-Jewish market as well . Beef and lamb from animals killed in ‘cruel’ ritual ceremonies are being sold in mainstream butchers, restaurants and supermarkets across Britain, The Mail on Sunday has found. Our investigation has discovered that kosher meat – which is slaughtered in accordance with strict Jewish food preparation rules –  is being sold as ordinary fresh  beef and lamb, or ending up in ready-made meals and burgers. The Jewish ‘shechita’ method of slaughter – the practice of slitting an animal’s throat and allowing it to bleed to death – has been slammed as ‘inhumane’ by vets and animal rights groups because the creature is conscious when it happens. Jewish law governing shechita strictly forbids pre-stunning,  as do some Islamic groups for  the production of halal meat. However, recent research suggests that unstunned animals can feel pain for up to two minutes. In conventional methods of slaughter, animals are rendered unconscious with an electric shock before their throats are slit or they are shot. Jews who observe strict kosher rules also eat only the front part of  a cow or sheep because the rump  and hind-quarters are deemed ‘unholy’. But the MoS can reveal that a number of abattoirs in the UK and Ireland that practise shechita are selling these ‘unholy’ parts to British suppliers and retailers, including supermarkets and butchers. As a result, many consumers are buying their meat unaware of how it was produced. Although the number of animals killed in the UK under shechita rules is not known, Compassion In World Farming, which campaigns for humane slaughter methods, claims 1.4 million sheep and goats, 32 million chickens and 70,000 cattle are slaughtered for meat without being stunned first. Experts say meat from an equal number of animals killed by similar methods in Ireland finds its way into the UK, one the biggest markets for Irish abattoirs and suppliers. 'Unholy': The parts marked with an 'X' are potentially making their way into the food chain . John Murphy, international sales director of Liffey Meats in Co. Cavan – one of Ireland’s biggest abattoirs – said all leftovers from its shechita slaughter is sold to mainstream suppliers in both Ireland and the UK. The firm kills about 600 cows a week using the un-stunned method, mainly for the Jewish market. John Mutch, managing director of Mutch Meats, in Witney, Oxfordshire, also admitted that left-over kosher meat ends up in the main food chain. He said: ‘What if we are doing kosher meat? It’s been legalised by the Government. It’s fit to go into the food chain, and we pass it on to lots of outlets. If animals cost £1,200 to £1,400 a piece, providing it’s fit for human consumption, it’s all got to be sold somewhere. Preparation: Animals are usually stunned before being killed for their meat, but Jewish law forbids this . ‘I can’t afford to throw away half of the beast, so it gets sold into the food chain. I have a business to run here.’ Stephen Lomax, a technical and legal adviser at the Association of Independent Meat Suppliers, said: ‘The shechita meat is ending up in the entire Gentile market, without any kind of labelling. 'I know the names of the meat suppliers and even the supermarkets that are selling the meat, but I can’t tell you that because of commercial sensitivity.’ Earlier this month, John Blackwell, chief of the British Veterinary Association, was accused of stoking up anti-Semitism and Islamophobia after claiming the religious slaughter of animals without stunning should be banned because it is cruel. But Shechita UK, which regulates religious slaughter for the Jewish community, insisted that when trained slaughtermen carry out shechita, the animals feel little pain. Spokesman Shimon Cohen said: ‘We too advocate better labelling, but a more comprehensive one. 'Rather than saying just “stunned,” it should say “electrocuted”, “gassed” or “shot with a bolt gun”. Then consumers will be fully informed.’ Celebrity chef Antony Worrall Thompson also called for clearer labelling. ‘People have a right to know what they are eating,’ he said. ‘I am going to ask my own suppliers next week if any unstunned meat comes into my own restaurants.’" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "According to Jewish law, animals cannot be stunned during slaughter .\nVets and animal rights groups have attacked the 'inhumane' practice .\nMail on Sunday finds meat butchered for Jewish market is being sold on .\nIt then ends in the regular food chain alongside normally-slaughtered meat .\nSince publication of this article, Shechita UK has asked us to point out that the number of animals slaughtered in the UK each year by shechita is as follows: Poultry 1 million, cattle 20,000, sheep 60,000." } ]

Fed up with the failing euro, rebellious locals in Villamayor de Santiago have reverted to using the old currency, which was phased out a decade ago. Around 30 shops in the historic town,  75 miles south-east of Madrid, started accepting pesetas last month after urging customers to dig out any old notes and coins they had forgotten about. Bring back the peseta: The Spanish village of Villamayor de Santiago has re-introduced the peseta. Pictured is a poster from villages on the border with Portugal which are also campaigning for a permanent return . As they were: The peseta was phased out in 2002 when the euro was introduced . News quickly spread, and shoppers from neighbouring villages and towns have been flocking there to spend the old currency. Luis Miguel Campayo, chairman of the . local merchants’ association, who came up with the idea, said:  ‘People . kept hold of old pesetas thinking that they might come in handy one day . if the euro fails. ‘It seems that those fears might come . true. Lots of Spaniards,  especially older people, have a strong . emotional attachment to the peseta and still do their sums in it when . talking about big transactions. The economy is struggling so much that . euros are scarce. ‘We thought that if people had a hunt around for their old pesetas, then why shouldn’t we accept them as legal currency? ‘It was after Christmas and shops really needed a helping hand and this is what we came up with.’ Exchange: The euro and peseta exchange rate stood at 166.386 pesetas per euro when the single currency was aligned in January 1999 . The country introduced the peseta in 1868, joined the euro in December 2001 and phased out the old currency in February 2002. However, unlike other euro countries such as France and Italy, it never set a deadline for exchanging pesetas into euros. Troubled times: New Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy is trying to turn around the country's economy .

Some have brought notes of up to 5,000 . pesetas, worth 30 euros (£25), while many are using coins of just 50, . 100 or 500 pesetas. At the end of the project Mr  Campayo . will take the money to the Bank of Spain in Madrid and exchange it for . euros before  handing the notes out to the  shopkeepers.

According to a recent study by . Spain’s consumers’ association OCU, the price of essential goods has . risen by 43 per cent since the introduction of the euro. The cost of . bread is up by 49 per cent while milk has risen 48 per cent and the . price of potatoes has  increased by 116 per cent. Town mayor Jose Julian Fernandez said he backed the scheme, adding: ‘I support any measure that helps our economy.’ More than a third of the 3,000 people . who live in Villamayor de Santiago are unemployed as Spain battles its . worst economic crisis since the Civil War.

A Catholic Church child safety co-ordinator who was in charge of investigating sexual abuse allegations was jailed for 12 months today for internet peadophile offences. Christopher Jarvis, 49, a married father-of-four, investigated historic claims of child abuse, interviewing the victims when they were adults. He was responsible for child protection at 120 churches and parish community groups for nine years. He also, as a member of the Devon and . Cornwall Multi-Agency Safeguarding Team, had access to police and . social services information about victims of child abuse. As . a result of the conviction and sentencing, the Roman Catholic Church . has ordered a review of child protection across the South West of . England. According to The Times, the Bishop of Plymouth, the Right Rev Christopher Budd, has asked the NSPCC to carry out the inquiry into child protection arrangements in Devon, Cornwall and Dorset. The revelations . that the church hired a peadophile in a key child protection role will . add to the controversy surrounding the Roman Catholic Church in England . and Wales over its handling of sexual abuse. At . the time of his arrest in March this year, Jarvis was leading an . investigation into an historic sex abuse allegation at Buckfast Abbey, a . Benedictine monastery in Devon. He was arrested after uploading images of pre-pubescent boys on to the Ning social networking website. Police officers who traced him to his home in Plymouth, Devon, found more than 4,000 child porn images, mainly of boys aged 10 to 12, on his church-supplied computer and a memory stick when they raided the house in Penrose Road. The court heard that 4,389 images were found on the laptop and memory stick. The majority, 3,721, were at Level One, the lowest level for abusive images. But there were 120 at Level Four, which . includes scenes of child rape, and 12 at Level Five, which can include . scenes of torture and sadism. Jarvis, who the court heard claimed he was abused as a child, was sentenced at the city's crown court after admitted 12 counts of making, possessing and distributing indecent images at a previous magistrates' court hearing. Inquiry: At the time of his arrest, Christopher Jarvis was leading an investigation into an historic sex abuse allegation at Buckfast Abbey in Devon. The Roman Catholic Church has now ordered a review of child protection across the South West of England . The court was told that Jarvis, who was . fired as soon as he admitted his crimes to the police, has been barred . from attending any Catholic services in Plymouth. He felt 'ostracised' by the church since his arrest, the court was told, and had attempted to commit suicide. Police who examined the computer after Jarvis's arrest found that, as well as the images, he had viewed erotic content about a relationship between a nine-year-old boy and an adult man. Diminutive and bespectacled, Jarvis hid his face with his hand from the people in the public gallery for the majority of the hearing. Passing sentence, Judge Paul Darlow dismissed attempts by the defence to have sentence deferred to examine whether Jarvis would benefit more from psychiatric help than prison. Investigation: The Bishop of Plymouth, the Right Rev Christopher Budd, pictured, ordered a review into child protection arrangements in the South West following the arrest and conviction of Christopher Jarvis . Judge Darlow told him that, despite appearing to his work colleagues as 'caring, helpful and honest', he had been 'elective and cynical' in downloading and distributing child porn. 'You, of all people, were more aware than others of the massive theft of innocence and long-term damage exacted on the children whose images you downloaded for your own sexual gratification,' he said. 'In the circumstances, your behaviour was more elective and cynical than might otherwise have been the case. 'It had a deep impact upon the church. In the eyes of the public you had a respectable position in the church. 'The people who confided in you of their own misery and abuse may well themselves be shocked and horrified that the person they were speaking to was, in his personal life, downloading images of children being abused in the same way.' The court heard that Jarvis had . refused to sign a 'covenant of care' the church requires all convicted . sex offenders to sign before they are allowed to rejoin congregations. Defence barrister Jo Martin said: 'He feels ostracised by the Catholic Church and that is why he had decided not to sign the covenant of care. 'He has decided now that he will not . go to church. The lack of forgiveness is very difficult for him to deal . with as a man of faith.' His public work persona was of a . caring professional good at his job, while in his personal life he . suffered from 'low self-esteem and his sense of inadequacy' stemming . from his own abuse as a child. It was this, she told the court, that had led him into downloading child pornography. In a statement, David Pond, the independent chairman of the Child Safeguarding Commission for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Plymouth, said the NSPCC carried out an independent review of child protection across the South West of England and cases Jarvis had been involved with and found no evidence that he had acted improperly in his role with the church. 'The church is and remains absolutely committed to ensuring that a safe environment exists for all in the church and the knowledge that Jarvis was himself guilty of such offences has been a great shock to the many people who had placed their trust in him and worked with him to protect vulnerable children and adults,' he said, . 'He was a fully qualified social worker and came to the role following a competitive recruitment process being of good character and with very good references. 'We need to be continually vigilant and aware of the need to have reliable checks and controls in place to manage the risk to vulnerable children and adults and we will continue to review and improve our responses to all forms of abuse.' Jarvis was jailed for 36 weeks concurrently for each of six charges of possessing indecent images of a child and five of making an indecent image of a child plus a further 16 weeks consecutively for a single charge of distributing indecent images of children." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Church orders review of child protection across the South West of England .\nFather-of-four was responsible for children's safety at 120 churches and community groups for nine years .\nPolice found more than 4,000 child porn images on his church-supplied computer ." } ]

Twins Ian and Stuart Paton, 53, previously held the record until it was beaten by a pumpkin last year that weighed 1,520 pounds. However, the Patons, from Pennington, Hampshire, reclaimed the record yesterday at an annual weigh-in of Britain's biggest pumpkin. The Paton brothers' pumpkin (pictured), weighing in at nearly a ton, needed to be lifted by a tractor . And amazingly, they smashed the record with their enormous 4.5ft tall pumpkin, which has a circumference of 17ft and 4in. Grower Ian said: 'It's absolutely enormous.' Moments before they smashed the record, farmer Mark Baggs from Dorset thought he had set it himself with a massive 1,582 pound vegetable. Ian said: 'Mark is a great friend of ours - we have known him for over ten years - and it was actually him who took our British record last year. 'When his went on the scales we though it was huge and there couldn't be much in it. 'But it's brilliant to take another step closer to the world record. Mark is chuffed to bits for us.' The record for the world's biggest pumpkin is 2,032 pounds and the brothers are confident they can top it one day. The twins placed it on the back of their truck and transported it to the annual competition at the Royal Victoria Country Park in Netley, Hampshire.

'We want to get the world record at one point and that's what we do it for. I think we will get there in the end.' The twins kept their record-breaker at a garden and plant nursery which they own in Pennington. They planted their pumpkin - the sole survivor of a group of seven - in April and have carefully nurtured it since.

Despite the appalling case of animal cruelty Sam Hessin, 39, and her two children, Damon, 22, and Hazel, 18, were spared jail. Pictures released by the RSPCA show the dogs' rotting remains in the house in Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire, lying in their own faeces. The Hessin family barricaded the eight pets - which were around six months old - into the downstairs room because they were biting them and did not know what else to do. WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT . The family left the animals, which were around six-months-old, to starve to death in a downstairs room in their home . Damon Hessin (left) and his sister Hazel (right) have been banned from keeping animals for life after they let eight puppies starve to death . Prosecutor . Kevin McCole said: 'The smell was almost unbearable, with dog faeces . several inches thick. It was likely the place had not been cleaned for . months or even years. 'It was clear the puppies had suffered and would have been obvious they were unwell and needed help.' He added: 'The life of some might have been extended by eating the others.'

Damon and Hazel have both been banned from keeping animals for life after admitting causing suffering to the eight dogs. They were both given suspended sentences at Leicester Magistrates' Court. Sam Hessin, 40, banned her two children from going into the kitchen and they used the living room to cook their meals.

Working hard: The baby news broke as Jude is on location in West Sussex filming his new movie The Genius . He also has a five-year-old daughter, Sophia, with American model Samantha Burke following a brief fling in 2008. This latest development is somewhat of a surprise as Jude has been mostly single over the past few years. He was last linked to actress Ruth Wilson until earlier this year after they often photographed together, although she insisted they were 'just friends'. Former flame: Jude was previously engaged to Sienna Miller, but they split after his affair with his children's nanny . In 2008 - before his fling with Samantha - Jude was photographed kissing Rod Stewart's socialite daughter Kimberly, who has since gone to have a child with Benicio Del Toro. Aside from his wife Sadie, Jude's most high-profile romance was his on-off relationship with Sienna Miller. The couple met on the set of Alfie in 2003 shortly after his separation from Sadie, with the actor proposing on Christmas Day 2004. However, their romance was rocked when in July 2005 it was revealed he had had an affair with his former children's nanny Daisy Wright four months earlier while filming in the US.

'I want to publicly apologise to Sienna and our respective families for the pain that I have caused. 'There is no defence for my actions which I sincerely regret and I ask that you respect our privacy at this very difficult time.' Although Sienna ditched her engagement ring, they tried to salvage their relationship, eventually splitting in November 2006. The pair then rekindled their romance in December 2009 after starring in different Broadway plays at the same time. However, just weeks after buying a home together in North London the pair split for good in February 2011. Sienna started dating her now-fiance Tom Sturridge just a month later and they now have a two-year-old daughter Marlowe together. Jude admitted five years ago that becoming a father shifted his priorities in life and gave him a wake-up call. He said in 2009: 'Being a daddy is what counts. I used to sleep until noon, but it's not so bad to have to get up at 7 and give them breakfast. 'My daughter made me realise that if there's anything that's going to make a man of you, it's having your will broken by a little girl.' Friendly exes: Jude and Sadie separated in February 2003 after six years of marriage . Meanwhile, Jude’s eldest son, Rafferty, this week spoke of the pressures of having a famous dad. The budding musician, who calls himself Raff as ‘I don’t really like the name Rafferty’, is in a band called The Dirty Harrys. Of not following in his father’s footsteps, he told the London Evening Standard: ‘I did feel a bit of pressure when I joined my first boarding school [Bedales in Hampshire]. ‘In my drama lesson, I think everyone thought: \"Oh God, he’s going to be so brilliant\". Then they realised that I wasn’t that good, so they just let me get on with it.’ He said meeting Blur and The Clash through his parents had helped him forge a music career, adding: ‘I did work experience for Blur for two weeks when they were rehearsing for their reunion gig, because Damon [Albarn] is really good friends with my dad.

Sahra is one of 100 girls and young women from France who have left to join terrorists in Syria in recent weeks . Heartbroken: Kamel Ali Mehenni (left) and his wife Severine pose for a picture in their living room in Lezignan Corbieres, France. The couple have spoken to their daughter Sahra three times since she left to join the Islamic State but believe her communication is being scripted by the terrorists . A local Kurdish official and Syrian activists say militants from the Islamic State are shelling a Syrian border crossing with Turkey to try and capture it and cut off the embattled town of Kobane. The official, Idriss Nassan, says ISIS aim to seize the crossing in order to close the noose around the town's Kurdish defenders and prevent anyone from entering or leaving Kobane. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says the militants this morning shelled several areas in Kobane, including the border crossing, which is the town's only gateway to Turkey. The Islamic State pushed into Kobane for the first time since launching its offensive in the area in mid-September. Activists say the fighting over Kobane has killed more than 500 people. Young girls are also coming from elsewhere in Europe, including between 20 and 50 from Britain. However, the recruitment networks are particularly developed in France, which has long had a troubled relationship with its Muslim community, the largest in Europe. Distraught families plead that their girls are kidnap victims, but a proposed French law would treat them as terrorists who will be arrested if they return. Sahra's family has spoken to her three times since she left, but her mother, Severine, thinks her communication is being scripted by the terrorists. 'They are being held against their will,' says Severine, a French woman of European descent. 'They are over there. They're forced to say things.' The Ali Mehenni family lives in a red-tiled, middle-class home in Lezignan-Corbieres, a small town in the south of France. Sahra, who turns 18 on Saturday, swooned over her baby brother and shared a room with her younger sister. But family relations turned testy when she demanded to wear the full Islamic veil, dropped out of school for six months and closed herself in her room with a computer. Distraught: Fouad El-Bahty poses for a photographer in Avignon, France. His sister Nora is one of more than 100 girls from France who have left to join Islamic State terrorists in Syria in recent months . Documentation: A legal file detailing the investigation into the disappearance of French teenager Nora El Bahty, who left her home in Avignon to join the Islamic State in Syria in January . Now she was in a new school. And she seemed to be maturing - she asked her mother to help her get a passport, because she wanted her paperwork as an adult in order. On the morning of March 11, Sahra casually told her father she was taking extra clothing to school to teach her friends to wear the veil. Kamel stifled his anxiety and drove her to the train station. He planned to meet her there just before dinner, as he did every night. At lunchtime on March 11, she called her mother. I'm eating with friends, she said. Surveillance video showed at that moment, Sahra was at the airport in Marseille, preparing to board an Istanbul-bound flight. She made one more phone call that day, from the plane, to a Turkish number, her mother said. By nightfall, she had not returned. Her worried parents went to police. They noticed the missing passport the next day. Terrorist: The teenage girls travelling to join ISIS are forced to pledge allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi (pictured), the leader of the Islamist group that has raped and massacred its way through Syria and Iraq . Militant: The teenage girls' departures are less the whims of adolescents and more the conclusions of months of work by organised radical recruitment networks that specifically target young people to join ISIS (pictured) 'Everything was calculated. They did everything so that she could plan to the smallest detail,' Severine says. 'I never heard her talk about Syria, jihad. It was as though the sky fell on us.' Sahra told her brother in a brief call from Syria that she had married to a 25-year-old Tunisian she had just met, and her Algerian-born father had no say because he wasn't a real Muslim. Her family has spoken to her twice since then, always guardedly, and communicated a bit on Facebook. But her parents no longer know if she's the one posting the messages. Sahra told her brother she's doing the same things in Syria that she did at home - housework, taking care of children. She says she doesn't plan to return to France, and wants her mother to accept her religion, her choice, her new husband. Nora's family knows less about her quiet path out of France, but considerably more about the network that arranged her one-way trip to Syria. Nora grew up the third of six children in the El-Bahty family, the daughter of Moroccan immigrants in the tourist city of Avignon. Her parents are practicing Muslims, but the family does not consider itself strictly religous. Not only France: A number of young British Muslims, including Reyaad Khan (left) and Nasser Muthanna (centre) from Cardiff, and Abdul Raqib Amin from Aberdeen (right) have also travelled to Syria to join ISIS . Barbaric: ISIS rebranded as the Islamic State after declaring the foundation of a caliphate earlier this year . She was recruited on Facebook. Her family does not know exactly how, but propaganda videos making the rounds play to the ideals and fantasies of teenage girls, showing veiled women firing machine guns and Syrian children killed in warfare. The French-language videos also refer repeatedly to France's decision to restrict use of veils and headscarves, a sore point among many Muslims. Nora was 15 when she departed for school on Jan. 23 and never came back. The next day, Foad, her older brother, learned that she had been veiling herself on her way to school, that she had a second phone number, that she had a second Facebook account targeted by recruiters. 'As soon as I saw this second Facebook account I said, `She's gone to Syria,'' Foad says. The family found out through the judicial investigation about the blur of travel that took her there. First she rode on a high-speed train to Paris. Then she flew to Istanbul and a Turkish border town on a ticket booked by a French travel agency, no questions asked. A young mother paid for everything, gave her a place to stay overnight in Paris and promised to travel with her the next day, according to police documents. She never did. Nora's destination was ultimately a 'foreigners' brigade' for the Nusra Front, an al-Qaida branch in Syria, Foad says. The idea apparently was to marry her off. But she objected and one of the emirs intervened on her behalf. For now at least, she remains single, babysitting children of jihadis. She has said she wants to come home - and Foad traveled to Syria but was not allowed to leave with her. 'As soon as they manage to snare a girl, they do everything they can to keep her,' Foad says. 'Girls aren't there for combat, just for marriage and children. A reproduction machine.' Two people have been charged in Nora's case, including the young mother. Other jihadi networks targeting girls have since been broken up, including one where investigators found a 13-year-old girl being prepared to go to Syria, according to a French security official. 'It is not at random that these girls are leaving. They are being guided. She was being commanded by remote control,' says family lawyer Guy Guenoun 'And now she has made a trip to the pit of hell.'" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "At least 100 girls and young women from France have recently left for Syria .\nHave been targeted by recruitment networks belonging to the Islamic State .\nTerrorists focus on winning trusts of young people searching for an identity .\nWomen joining ISIS mostly serve as wives and housekeepers for militants ." } ]

In order to play the $800,000 worth of games he also has 108 consoles dating back to the 1980s . Mr Thomasson said: 'When I purchased a copy of the records book in 2011 and saw the current holder's entry, I knew that I was close if not already over the standing record.

He apparently hanged himself, but his family claims he was murdered . The hanging death of an American electronics engineer in Singapore last summer has ignited an international mystery, after his family and girlfriend developed suspicions that he may have been murdered the week before he was scheduled to return home to the U.S. The family of Shane Todd visited his apartment in the Chinatown district of Singapore days after they received news of his June 2012 death, saying that their son had misgivings about some of the work he was doing for the company. Dr Todd, 31, was slated to return to the U.S. after completing an 18-month stint at the Institute of Microelectronics, and his family is now desperately searching for how – and why – their son is dead. A February 15 piece published in the Financial Times magazine tells of how Mr Todd’s parents, Mary and Rick Todd, traveled from Montana to Singapore days after their son’s death on June 23, 2012. Mrs Todd told the magazine in no uncertain terms: ‘We think our son was murdered.’ The Todds did not immediately respond to a request sent by MailOnline. According to the magazine, the Todds, joined by their sons, John and Dylan, went to see where Shane had spent his last hours. His parents have said he was murdered because of his involvement in the project, which they say involved exporting sensitive military technology to China. IME did not immediately respond to MailOnline’s request for comment. The family told the FT that they discovered several things awry at Dr Todd’s Colonial-era apartment. Piles of laundry were neatly folded and ready to be packed in suitcases, packed moving boxes littered the apartment, and his plane ticket back to the States was sitting on his dining room table. Close: Mary and Rick Todd, center, are mourning the death of their son Shane (back right, pictured with brothers John, back left, Dylan, front right, Chet and his wife Corynne , front left) The Singapore police report from last summer states that Mr Todd – who stood more than 6ft and 200 pounds – constructed a sort of noose by bolting a pulley to the bathroom wall and wrapping a strap through the contraption. However, when the Todd family arrived days later, they were appalled to find that their late son’s front door was unlocked, there was no crime tap indicating an active investigation, and more importantly – no bolts drilled into the bathroom. The Singapore Police released a statement today in response to the FT article, reading in part: ‘The police investigate all unnatural death cases thoroughly, working closely with the pathologist and other relevant experts, and no prior assumptions are made on the cause of death,’ according to Yahoo! Singapore. The FT article also states that the FBI bureau in Singapore has volunteered their forensic help on two separate occasions, but said that the local police had declined their help. An FBI source in Washington told the paper that they could do nothing to help the investigation until the Singapore Police formally accepted their assistance. In the statement, Singapore police added: ‘Since the death of Mr Shane Todd, the Police have engaged and assisted the family without impending the objectivity of our investigation process. We will continue to do so. Police have also kept the American Embassy and FBI informed of this case.’ The family also recovered a hard drive with backup data from his time at IME. The FT gave information on the hard drive to Professor Sir Colin Humphreys to analyze. The professor works as the director of research at Cambridge University’s Centre for Gallium Nitride. Brothers: Shane Todd was one of four boys and his grieving family want to know the truth about his death . According to the centre’s website, the chemical, known as GaN, is ‘probably the most important semiconductor material since silicon.’ The chemical is used in many of today’s high-tech products, from Blu-ray players to hybrid electric cars, and can withstand heat to much higher capacity than silicone. It is the building blocks for blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Sir Colin told the FT that the data on Dr Todd’s hard drive was fore a high-electron mobility transistor made from GaN, adding that the project had applications for both the military and commercial use. Singapore police said they were still investigating the death of Dr Todd and would submit their evidence to a coroner. Singaporean pathologists concluded in an autopsy last June that he died by hanging in his Singapore flat. Chemicals: Dr Todd was working with Gallium Nitrate (GaN), a synthetic material used in many high-tech objects like Blu-ray players and hybrid electric cars . 'IME approached Huawei on one occasion to cooperate with them in the GaN field, but we decided not to accept, and consequently do not have any cooperation with IME related to GaN,' Huawei said in a statement. Huawei said that the development of GaN technology was commonplace across the telecommunications industry. Interviews with the family, colleagues and friends revealed conflicting views on Dr Todd's state of mind before his death, the nature of his work and how he died. Colleagues said that he was increasingly depressed in his last few months, but said that his concerns appeared to centre on a sense of failure about his work, and an ambivalence about returning to the United States. On assignment: Dr Todd lived in the Chinatown district of Singapore; here the skyline is pictured . Researchers in unrelated fields have also questioned how, if his work was so sensitive, he was able to take home computer files from his office. IME is part of a network of research institutes managed by government-run Agency for Science, Technology and Research, or A*Star. A former A*Star researcher now working in the United States pointed out that IME and other A*Star institutes were not military research organizations. Huawei is one of the world's largest telecommunication equipment companies, but has been blocked from some projects in Australia and deemed a security risk by the U.S. congress on the grounds that its equipment could be used for spying, according to Reuters. Huawei has routinely denied such accusations and has said it is not linked to the Chinese government. Dr Todd's parents said in interviews in July that Singapore police and IME had failed to properly investigate his death after his body was found hanging from a door in his Singapore apartment on the evening of June 24, two days after he quit IME. Singapore police say they have handled the case as they have handled other cases, and their procedures follow high international standards. They said in such cases of unnatural death, 'no prior assumptions' were made about the cause. Big business: Huawei is one of the world's largest telecommunication equipment companies, but has been deemed a security risk by the U.S. congress on the grounds that its equipment could be used for spying . Mrs Todd said in a telephone interview with Reuters last July that he had been scared. 'I had been talking to him for months for at least an hour every week and he told us he was afraid of being murdered because of his contacts with the Chinese government,' she said. 'He quit his job because of it.' Huawei declined to say whether they had been working on other projects with IME. Colleagues said shortly after Todd's death that he had told them at one point he had been working on a project with Huawei but that it was not sensitive or high-level in nature. One described it as carrying out 'measurement test reports' of semiconductors. The FT said that Dr Todd had been involved in proposing a joint project with Huawei. While it did not say whether the project was approved, it quoted his parents as saying that subsequently he complained to them of being asked to do things with a Chinese company he did not identify that made him uncomfortable. Dr Todd was described in his obituary as an avid baseball player and a brilliant scientific mind. He earned his PhD in Electrical Engineering from the University of Santa Barbara.

A mother, her face a picture of joy, holds her precious child as she flees the scene of a bloody hostage drama in Paris that cost the lives of four innocent people. In 15 astonishing minutes, police brought a dramatic end to two sieges after three days of terror had paralysed the French capital. Police commandos stormed a Jewish grocery store in a hail of bullets and stun grenades, killing an Al Qaeda-linked gunman who was holding 15 hostages. Twelve minutes earlier, and only 25 miles away, another stand-off ended with the deaths of Charlie Hebdo killers, Said and Cherif Kouachi. Firing their Kalashnikovs, they charged straight into the guns of hundreds of soldiers and police surrounding their final hideout. Scroll down for video. Relief: Two hostages leave with their young child (left) and a man carrying a small child is seen fleeing from the ordeal (right) after police stormed the kosher grocery store in eastern Paris . Going in: Special forces storm the Jewish grocery to the east of Paris where terrorist Amedey Coulibaly had taken hostages . Chilling: The body of a man can be seen at the entrance of the Jewish supermarket after it was stormed by commandos . Terrified: Hostages - who had been held for hours with Coulibaly threatening to kill them - flee from the shop, crying with relief . Running to safety: Police escort seven hostages freed from the kosher grocers, including one woman who had to be carried . The grocery store terrorist, Amedy Coulibaly, 32, gave an interview to a French TV station at the height of the siege in which he swore allegiance to Islamic State and claimed the three days of mayhem had been ‘synchronised’. Coulibaly confirmed he had shot a policewoman in the south of Paris on Thursday. ‘Them Charlie Hebdo; me the police,’ he said. One of his hostages had left a telephone line open so police could hear what was happening in the shop and moved in when the gunman began to pray. The Kouachi brothers, who were trained by Al Qaeda in Yemen, had a hostage they did not know about during their nine-hour siege at a printworks in Dammartin-en-Goele, near Charles de Gaulle airport, northeast of Paris. A 27-year-old graphic designer hid inside a box with his phone for more than six hours and updated police on his phone. Another man, Michel Catalano, who the brothers held during the stand-off, was able to walk to safety helped by police. The terrorists had told negotiators they wanted to ‘die as martyrs’ before mounting their fatal charge. Last night French president Francois Hollande spoke to the nation promising ‘all necessary measures will be used’ to protect the French people and called on them to remain united in ‘these difficult times’. He said the attacks had been carried out by fanatics who had nothing to do with Islam and said the assault on the grocery shop was ‘anti-semitic’. The country must remain vigilant against the possibility of further attacks, he stressed. The dual assaults brought to an end France’s biggest security operation with nearly 90,000 police and soldiers deployed initially to hunt down the brothers, and then Coulibaly, after he had shot dead the 27-year-old policewoman. Millions had watched gripped on television as the manhunt for the terrorists had ended in bloody shootouts, car chases and sieges. At one point seven helicopters and more than 50 police and military vehicles had been involved in a high-speed chase during which shots were fired after the Kouachis broke cover from a forest where they had been sheltering 50 miles north east of Paris. Dead: Amedey Coulibaly was shot dead after taking at least six hostages at a grocery store in east Paris. He is believed to be have been working with his girlfriend Hayat Boumeddiene (right) who was said to be 'armed and dangerous' Dead: Cherif Kouachi (left), 32, and his brother Said (right) were killed in a firefight with French special forces at a industrial site . Bloody climax: A huge ball of fire erupts amid gunfire and explosions as French special forces shoot dead the two Charlie Hebdo gunmen . In their sights: Police train their weapons on the building where the Charlie Hebdo gunmen were holed up with a hostage in Dammartin-en-Goele . Algerian secret services warned France of an imminent attack 24 hours before the Paris atrocity, it was claimed last night. Officials told their French counterparts that a ‘major terrorist operation was in preparation on French territory’ on January 6, according to TV station iTele. The claim is particularly interesting because the Kouachi brothers behind the massacre at the Charlie Hebdo offices were French nationals of Algerian descent. They were radicalised by the Buttes-Chaumont jihadist recruitment cell, primarily made up of Franco-Algerians. They were forced in to the industrial estate at Dammartin-en-Goele where they made their last stand. Local residents were evacuated or ordered to lock themselves in their homes as what was described as ‘a small army’ of soldiers and police surrounded them, throwing a cordon around the area. ‘They said they want to die as martyrs,’ Yves Albarello, a local politician who was inside the command post, claimed. Meanwhile, across Paris, Coulibaly, brandishing his Kalashnikov, wearing a bullet proof vest and firing at shoppers, had stormed the kosher supermarket near the Porte de Vincennes, shooting or taking hostage those inside. Police said he was accompanied by a woman called Hayat Boumeddiene, 26. They were described as ‘armed and dangerous.’ Her fate was unknown last night amid reports that she was on the run. Unknown to the gunman, several Jewish families were hiding in a freezing store room below, listening to the gunfire and terror above. It appeared that at one point Coulibaly and the Kouachis were in contact and police shut down all communications around the industrial site. Coulibaly warned a hostage negotiator that if the brothers were killed, he would open fire on his hostages. One woman trapped inside telephoned her mother to say: ‘I am in the shop. I love you.’ Explosion: The street is rocked during the final stages of the siege which left four hostages dead . Front door: Officers were also seen pouring in through the front door at the denouement of the siege . Assault force: Special forces line up to enter the premises through a backdoor as the street is rocked by explosions . Police locked down the area, swamping it with hundreds of security forces. Snipers could be seen on rooftops and at windows looking for a clear shot at Coulibaly. Last night there was a huge sense of relief in the French capital, mixed with disbelief and fears of more copycat strikes. There were difficult questions too for the intelligence services as to why they had stopped their surveillance on the Kouachi brothers when their jihadi terror links going back eight years were so well known. In a telephone call yesterday, Cherif Kouachi admitted he had been funded by a network loyal to Anwar al-Awlaki, the former American-born leader of Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula who was killed by a drone strike in 2011 in Yemen. Frantic: Police rush to the scene of the hostage-taking at an industrial estate in Dammartin-en-Goele around 25 miles from Paris . Siege: The gunmen are surrounded by police commandos who have begun negotiations to try to secure the release of the hostage . Trapped: The brothers were cornered in the premises of a printing firm after leading police on a dramatic car chase . Scoping it out: Police and armed forces take up positions in Dammartin-en-Goele after landing by helicopter in fields near the hostage scene . Hacker group Anonymous ‘declared war’ on Islamist terrorists last night saying they would smash their online networks. The group said it would track down and close social media accounts of militants, in a video and statement published online. A figure wearing the group’s symbolic Guy Fawkes mask appeared seated in front of a desk with the hashtag #OpCharlieHebdo. Speaking in French and with his voice obscured electronically, he said: ‘We are declaring war against you, the terrorists.’ How three days of terror unfolded after gunmen first stormed the Charlie Hebdo offices in Paris on Wednesday . Holed up: The gunmen escaped on foot into a small printing business (above) called Creating Trend Discovery, just before 9am GMT . In a separate statement posted online the group said ‘freedom of expression has suffered inhuman assault … and it is our duty to react’. The move is a novel departure for Anonymous which has previously carried out attacks on government, religious and corporate websites. Many of them were so-called ‘denial-of-service’ attacks. Two of the terrorists gave interviews by phone as the final moments of the sieges played out around Paris yesterday. From his printworks hideout, Cherif Kouachi told a radio journalist: ‘I am a defender of the Prophet. I was sent by Al Qaeda of Yemen. ‘I’m financed by Imam Anwar al-Awlaki. Anwar is a predicateur [preacher]. He has lived in the Yemen. He is one of the thinking heads of Al Qaeda.’ Al-Awlaki, who was killed in 2011 in Yemen by a US drone strike, was one of Al Qaeda’s top recruiters, US officials say. The French reporter who spoke to Kouachi said his manner was calm and determined, and he denied killing civilians. Chillingly, the terrorist insisted he did not see the murdered journalists at Charlie Hebdo as civilians, but merely as ‘targets’. Astonishingly, another journalist was also able to speak on the phone to Amedy Coulibaly, who had taken shoppers hostage at a kosher grocery in Porte de Vincennes. In the midst of the siege, the reporter asked Coulibaly: ‘Are you in contact with the two brothers?’ The gunman replied: ‘Yes, we made contact before the operations.’ He confirmed he had shot a policewoman in Paris the previous day, swore allegiance to Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant, and said the attacks were ‘synchronised’. ‘Them Charlie Hebdo; me the police,’ Coulibaly explained. Terrified hostages also reportedly called friends and family from the kosher deli.

But a State Department spokesman on Friday claimed that CNN had promised not to mention the journal, and described their U-turn as 'disgusting' and 'indefensible'. Scroll down to watch video from Wednesday's show . New revelations: On Wednesday, Anderson Cooper, left, told Senator John McCain, right, that a 'source familiar with Ambassador Stevens' thinking' said the envoy was worried about security .

Barnaby Jack died in San Francisco on Thursday, just days before he was due to give a speech revealing how implanted heart devices were at risk from fatal hacking attacks. The San Francisco Medical Examiner’s office confirmed the death last night but did not give any  further details. Scroll down for video . Mystery: The cause of Barnaby Jack's death is currently unknown. He gained notoriety after demonstrating how to hack into ATMs (pictured right) New Zealand-born Jack, 35, was scheduled to be one of the star guests at the Black Hat hacking convention in Las Vegas next week. In a presentation called Hacking Humans, he was planning to highlight the shortcomings of commonly used pacemaker machines by demonstrating how he could hack into them and kill the heart patient from 50ft away with a deadly power surge triggered by a wireless transmitter. An episode of the acclaimed US series Homeland, starring Damian Lewis and Claire Danes, showed a terrorist using a computer to hack into the Vice-President’s pacemaker and speed up his heartbeat until it kills him. In Homeland, the killer needed the serial number of the pacemaker, but Jack argued that in real life it was even simpler and knowing the code was not necessary. In a recent blog, he said: ‘The only implausible aspect of the hack was the range in which the attack was carried out. 'The attacker would have had to be in the same building or have a transmitter set up closer to the target. With that said, the scenario was not too far-fetched.’ He said some pacemakers could be commanded to deliver a deadly 830-volt shock from someone on a laptop up to 50ft away, the result of poor software programming by medical device companies. Barnaby Jack had claimed he had developed a technique for hacking pacemakers (file photograph) Jack claimed it was possible to infect the pacemaker companies’ servers with a bug that would spread through their system like a virus. ‘We are potentially looking at a worm with the ability to commit mass murder,’ he added. ‘It’s kind of scary.’ The possibility of such attacks is being taken so seriously by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that it has asked manufacturers to ensure greater protection for newer pacemakers which use wireless technology. Jack became one of the world’s most famous hackers after a 2010 demonstration of ‘Jackpotting’ – getting cash machines to spew out money. At the time of his death, Jack was director of embedded-device security for Seattle information-security firm IOActive. The company said in a tweet: ‘Lost but never forgotten, our beloved pirate, Barnaby Jack, has passed.’" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Barnaby Jack had said he could kill a person from 30 feet by using the hack .\nGained infamy after demonstrating how to hack cash machines .\nVideo courtesy of Security Week.

A confidante of the family for the past 25 years has spoken to MailOnline about the strength and grace of the Peterson family, as well as the torment that plagued Albert which drove him to shoot dead his wife Kathleen and his two sons Christopher and Mathew at their suburban home in DC on Sunday. A history of mental illness, the loss of a dear uncle, and a growing fear of Obama winning a second term in the White House took its toll on the mind of Mr Peterson, a wealthy defense contractor, the friend said. 'He just did not want his kids inheriting this mess,' Maggie L, who did not wish to reveal her last name, told MailOnline. 'Sometimes we thought he might take his own life when he was so depressed. We never thought he would take Kathie's.' Gone: Albert Peterson, left, shot dead his wife Kathleen, right, and two sons hours after going to church. The couple is pictured on January 4, 2010. Just Beginning: Christopher, 13, right was an eighth grader at Rachel Carson Middle School and Matthew, 16, left, was a sophomore at Westfield High School. Both were avid soccer players and active at their church . Albert, 57, Kathleen, 52, Matthew, 16, and Christopher, 13, were found Tuesday just after noon inside their home in Herndon, Virgina. Co-workers reported to police that they were concerned that Mr and Mrs Peterson had not reported to work for the past two days. Mr Peterson was a defense contractor and Mrs Peterson worked at Blackbird Technologies, a company that specializes in defense, law enforcement and intelligence work. Chris was an eighth grader at Rachel Carson Middle School and Matthew was a sophomore at Westfield High School. Both were avid soccer players and active at their church. The preliminary police investigation indicates that Albert Peterson killed his wife and their children before taking his own life. Each of the deceased died of gunshot wounds to the upper body. Maggie had been a friend of the family for the past three decades. 'I've known Kathie since I was 21. She's been like a sister to me,' Maggie said. 'If she knew her husband would have done this to her, she would have protected those boys till the end.' Albert and Kathleen Ortiz were married some 25 years ago, Maggie said, and met over a mutual love of fitness.Mrs Peterson, who was Puerto Rican, had an indomitable spirit, always active and pursuing adventure, Maggie said. 'That girl had such a zest for life,' Maggie sad. 'She was a consummate planner. She never wanted to waste an ounce of life.' She continued: 'If I was having a crappy day, she would come. If I needed advice, I said, \"Kathie, what do I do? What do I say?\" and she always set me straight. She always had advice. She was always there.' Mother: Mrs Peterson worked at Blackbird Technologies, a company that specializes in defense, law enforcement and intelligence work . But as time went on, Mr Peterson's paranoia and the demons from his past prevented him from enjoying life, his friends and his family. 'He's had difficulty his whole life,' Maggie said. 'He had a rough time with paranoia.' At a young age, Maggie said, both his father and his uncle committed suicide. 'His dad suffered from alopecia and it was something he couldn't live with,' Maggie said. After Mr Peterson's Uncle John killed himself, Maggie said that both Petersons were unnerved as they had frequently sent their children to his home to spend time with him. 'When Uncle John died, [Mr Peterson] kicked himself and said \"God, what would have happened if our sons were there when it happened?\"' Maggie recalled. Thinking back on the eerie precursor, Maggie is still dumbfounded. 'It just never crossed our minds,' she said. Young: Mathew, left, and Christopher, right, pose for a photograph at an earlier date . Mr Peterson's life was punctuated by . bouts of paranoia that became so severe, he wallowed in his depression, . gained weight, and contemplated taking his own life. In one dark episode, after his mother died five years ago, his wife had to pull him from the brink of suicide. 'Kathie was a strong person and she probably put her foot down, like she did five years ago,' Maggie said. 'Kathie couldn't believe the way he was acting and how he thought.' 'She wanted to be out doing something - biking, hiking, tubing and I know that frustrated Al. She just wanted to be living life and he took that from her,' she said. Maggie said that this spring, Mr Peterson lost his Uncle Bill to an infection, whom he looked up to as the family patriarch. 'He felt like there was no one left in his family,' Maggie said. Mrs Peterson's family never fully warmed to Mr Peterson, Maggie said. 'I know that Kathie's brother hates him right now. Kathie's brother didn't speak to Al,' Maggie said. 'He saw something in Al that probably didn't sit well with him.' Recently, Mr Peterson began writing paranoid emails to his friends and family about politics on a daily basis, sometimes even more frequently, Maggie said. Tragic: The preliminary police investigation indicates that Albert Peterson killed his wife and their children before taking his own life . Shock: Each of the deceased died of gunshot wounds to the upper body . 'I got emails and the emails stopped all of a sudden last week,' Maggie said. 'He felt that our God-given rights were being taken away. He didn't like where the country was going.' Mr Peterson, also mentioned pressures at work that troubled Maggie. Explaining his increasingly erratic behavior, she said: 'He said he wanted to expose something at work. He also got the impression at work, that if they didn't vote for Obama and get him elected, they would lose their jobs,' 'We don't know. Maybe she put her foot down Sunday night and told him \"Al get it together,\"' Maggie said, noting that both Kathleen and Albert had security clearances. 'When Al was here last time, he was pretty worked up,' Maggie said. 'They were very well off people and they saved a lot of money. He couldn't understand how the government could be so irresponsible and he thought it would be on the backs of his boys.' Police have confirmed Mr Peterson's feelings toward politics were unusually passionate, but declined to speculate what precipitated the tragedy. 'We don’t know the motive in this tragic case,' Lucy Caldwell of the Fairfax Police Department said. 'We are aware that the father had strong political opinions but cannot speculate as to how those opinions related to this case. We will, most likely, never know exactly why this occurred.'

School, right, wore black to school on Wednesday to commemorate their classmates. On Thursday, they wore white as a sign of peace . As close as she was to the family, Maggie still cannot come to grips with what happened. 'To think that their father could do this to them...' Maggie said, weeping. 'The boys were so beautiful.' Matthew was born premature, Maggie said, and she remembers how small he was- tiny enough to fit in the palm of her hand. 'This boy was something special. Matthew didn’t have a mean bone in body. He protected kids that were bullied in school,' she said. Last weekend, Maggie, Kathleen, Matthew and Christopher attended a Mitt Romney rally together. That's when Matthew told Maggie his plans for college. 'I asked him where he wanted to go to college. He said Liberty University. He was so excited about going,' she said, weeping. Mr Peterson never made it to the rally. He got stuck trying to park the car and since his knees were bad, he couldn't walk to the event. 'Those boys were raised by one of the best Moms. Kathie knew every minute where her boys were. Those boys were never in trouble.'

Authorities in Mississippi are investigating after a state lawmaker was found dead in a suspected suicide at the home of a former colleague, according to local officials. Republican Rep. Jessica Upshaw, 53, of the 95th District in Diamondhead, was found dead of an apparent gunshot wound to the head in the home of former Rep. Clinton Rotenberry. The cause of Upshaw's death is believed to be suicide, but authorities are still awaiting the results of an autopsy. Simpson County Sheriff Kenneth Lewis told  WLOX that Upshaw appeared to have shot herself in the head at the home in Mendenhall, which is located about 30 miles southeast of Jackson, the state capital, and about 110 miles from Upshaw's hometown. Upshaw, a Republican, was elected to the Mississippi House of Representatives in 2004. She was not married, but has an adult daughter who lives in South Korea and is married with a newborn.

Controversial Republican Oklahoma Senator Jim Inhofe has confirmed that his son died in a plane crash on Sunday. Dr. Perry Inhofe worked as an orthopedic surgeon in Tulsa and was piloting the Mitsubishi MU-2B-25 twin turboprop aircraft that came down five miles from Tulsa International Airport. Oklahoma Highway Patrol spokesman George Brown said authorities confirmed that one person died in the crash which occurred at 3.40 p.m.in a heavily wooded area. According to flight tracking websites the aircraft took off from Salina, Kansas and was due to land at the airport after a 45 minute flight. Pilots cleared to land after the fatal crash reported to Tulsa World that the aircraft Dr. Inhofe was flying experienced engine failure. Witnesses Jake Bray and his uncle, Bryon Fry, were in the woods when the plane crashed about 400 yards away. 'I saw it go over once and don't think anything of it,' Bray said to Tulsa World. 'Then it circled around and I saw one propeller out. Then it nosed down and went down hard. 'It started spiraling out of control and it hit the ground. 'We were talking about trying and maybe pulling the guy out if that was possible. A small plane burns after crashing near a residential area in Owasso, Oklahoma - This was the twin engined plane that Dr. Perry Inhofe was flying in . 'It was fully engulfed when we got there and it looked like the wings had come detached. There were tires popping ... There was nothing we could do.' Dr. Perry Inhofe is an orthopedic surgeon with Central States Orthopedics in Tulsa and received a degree in biomedical engineering and electrical engineering from Duke University in 1984. He is one four children the Senator has with wife Kay Kirkpatrick. Dr. Inhofe has been a commercial pilot since 2009 and was certified as a flight instructor in February of 2012. Senator Inhofe has just recovered from quadruple bypass surgery in October and had only returned to Washington last week after suffering an extreme blockage in five arteries. Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK) speaks during a news conference to announce a plan to defund the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare, at the U.S. Capitol in March . Inhofe turns 79 next year and has been in the U.S. Senate since 1994 and is up for re-election in 2014. The venerable politician sits on the Senate Armed Services Committee and is known as one of the more consevative members of Congress. He believes that man-made global warming is a hoax and impossible because 'God's still up there.' In 2006, in an interview with Tulsa World, Inhofe said that environmentalism reminds him of 'the Third Reich'....You say something over and over and over again and people will believe it.' He is also known as a strong supporter of Israel and that its citizens have a right to settle the land around Palestine because it is God given. Inhofe is in favor of a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage, against adding sexual orientation to the definition of hate crimes, and he voted against prohibiting job discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation. As a result he does not hire openly gay staff members because of the possibility of a conflict of interest. He campaigned for his Senate seat in 1994 with the phrase, 'God, guns and gays' and he was seen by the Associated Press to be running an ad with 'anti-gay overtones' when one of his commercial  featured a wedding cake with two male figures atop, blending into his opponent's face. In June of 2006, Inhofe proudly pointed to a photograph of his entire family and claimed on the Senate floor that none of his family were lesbian or gay.

Cmdr Price was based in Naval Amphibious Base Little Creek, Virginia, near Norfolk and had been in the military for more than 23 years. He leaves behind a wife, Stephanie and a nine-year-old daughter Jillian, who both live in Virginia Beach. The commander is originally from Pottstown, Pennsylvania. He commanded six platoons, two-dozen SEAL commandos and numerous support staff,  deployed in Uruzgan Province, where they were conducting counter-terrorism missions and training police in remote parts of the country. SEAL Team Four is one of nine teams of special operations troops. The most famous of the combat groups is the classified SEAL Team Six, which conducted the raid that killed Osama bin Laden in May 2011. A U.S. military official said the death 'appears to be the result of suicide.' The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the death is still being investigated. 'The Naval Special Warfare family is deeply saddened by the loss of our teammate,' said Captain Robert Smith, commander of Naval Special Warfare Group Two, which manages all Virginia-based Navy SEAL teams. 'We extend our condolences, thoughts and prayers to the family, friends, and NSW community during this time of grieving. 'As we mourn the loss and honor the memory of our fallen teammate, those he served with will continue to carry out the mission.' Elite: Navy SEALs are among the U.S. military's most highly-trained and deadly commandos . Secretive: SEAL Team Four is based at Naval Amphibious Base Little Creek, Virginia, near Naval Station Norfolk, the Navy's largest East Coast base . Navy SEAL Team Four, one of nine SEAL Teams, is focused on Latin America and all commandos in the unit speak Spanish. The team gained a reputation for bravery during the 1983 invasion of Grenada. The unit, which consists of six platoons, has been deployed numerous times to Iraq and Afghanistan. It was currently working on counter-terrorism missions in rural Afghanistan, as well as training police in the far-flung regions of Uruzgan Province. The team is based, along with four others, at Naval Amphibious Base Little Creek near Norfolk, Virginia. CNN . reports that Cmdr Price was not involved in any controversies or . military discipline. It is unknown why he committed suicide. His body was found when he failed to report for duty on Saturday, a source told the network. SEAL Team Four specializes in operations in Latin America and all members of the team are required to speak Spanish. The team was deployed to Grenada in 1983. The unit has also had multiple deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. In . 2009, then-Cmdr Dennis Debobes was fired as head of SEAL Team Four . because his superiors had 'lost confidence in his ability to perform his . duties.' No specific reason for the termination was cited. The . Navy SEALS have been involved in numerous high-profile missions during . the war in Afghanistan, and have taken numerous causalities during . high-profile attacks. Eleven . Navy SEALs died in 2005 during Operating Whalers, when a team of SEAL . Team Six commandos were ambushed during a mission to disrupt Afghan . operations. A helicopter launched on the subsequent rescue mission, . Operation Red Wings, saw shot down, as well, killing all aboard. SEAL Teams Six and Ten were involved in those operations. In . August 2011, 22 SEALs, most of them members of the elite Team Six, were . killed when their Chinook helicopter was shot down by Taliban fighters. The SEALs had been dispatched to assist a group of Army Rangers in capturing a top commander. The Taliban claimed they had lured . the commandos to their deaths by feeding false information to American . intelligence operatives.

Police now say that the former marine accused of killing the country’s best sniper and another man at a shooting range now says that he threatened to kill himself and his family back in September and he was hospitalized. A police report from the September 2 incident states they were alerted to the threat when they received a call about 25-year-old Eddie Ray Routh, who is now in jail on two murder counts for allegedly killing Chris Kyle and Chad Littlefield. ‘Eddie stated he was hurting and that his family does not understand what he has been through,’ the police report says. The Dallas Morning News reports that when officers arrived on the scene they found Eddie walking outside the family home without shoes or a shirt, and smelling like alcohol. His mother said that the argument started when his father said that they were going to take away his gun. ‘She stated Eddie began arguing and stated that he was going to “blow his brains out,”’ the report stated. As it has been previously reported, Routh allegedly told police at the scene that he has post traumatic stress disorder. He was arrested on Saturday evening following the afternoon shooting at the gun range, and while he was reportedly calm during the arrest, his time in jail has not been as smooth. Scroll down for video . Storm: Kyle wrote a graphic memoir, American Sniper, about his four bloody tours of Iraq, released last year . Routh is now tied to a chair in . solitary confinement as prison guards put him on suicide watch after he . started acting aggressive towards guards on Sunday night when he refused . to give them back his food tray. The 25-year-old former soldier was . Tasered by guards at Erath County Jail when he 'was trying to attack . them,' according to ABC News. Routh- who Kyle and Littlefield took . to the range in an effort  to connect with the troubled former soldier . and potentially help him work through his post traumatic stress . disorder- remains in jail on $3million bail. Police caught Routh after he drove off to his sister's house in Kyle's Jeep and confessed to the killings. 'I don't think anybody knows why. They all went out there together,' Erath County Sheriff Tommy Bryant said on Sunday. 'It's my understanding that the . suspect may have been suffering from some type of mental illness from . being in the military himself,' he said of Routh. Scene: The shooting took place at Rough Creek Lodge in Glen Rose, Texas earlier this month . He said Routh's mother may have reached out to Kyle for help with her son. 'We kind of have an idea that maybe . that's why they were at the range for some type of therapy that Mr. Kyle . assists people with,' Mr Bryant said. Bryant didn't know whether Routh was on any medication or whether he had been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder. Authorities say the three men arrived . at the Rough Creek Lodge southwest of Fort Worth around 3.15pm Saturday. A hunting guide discovered the bodies of Kyle and Littlefield around . 5pm and called 911. Both Kyle and Littlefield were shot multiple times, and police found a semi-automatic handgun at Routh’s home. According to the Fort Worth . Star-Telegram, Routh’s mother Jodi had reached out to Mr Kyle, asking . him to help her son overcome his PTSD since he had talked about his . rehabilitation efforts in the past. While in Iraq, Kyle survived being shot twice . and he lived through six separate IED explosions as his unit, Charlie . company of SEAL Team Three, saw significant combat . Kyle recorded more than 150 sniper kills - the most in U.S. military history - between 1999 and 2009 . 'Chris struggled with some things,' said Travis Cox, Kyle’s friend who serves as director of the non-profit . called FITCO that the former sniper started since his retirement. 'He'd been through a lot and he . handled it with grace, but yeah he did struggle with some things. And he . found a healthy outlet and was proactive in his approach to deal with . those issues and wanted to help spread his healing, what worked for him, . to others. And that's what he died doing.' Littlefield, a 35-year-old friend and . neighbor, was Kyle's 'workout buddy,' and also volunteered his time to . work with veterans, Cox said. He was married and had children as well. 'He's a very gentle, sweet-hearted man, just a great man, kind of quiet,' Cox said of Littlefield. Caught: Police searched for Routh for hours following the shooting on Saturday afternoon but he was found after his sister called him in, as he fled to her house in Kyle's pick up truck and proceeded to confess to the killings . Criticism: Former Texas congressman Ron Paul posted a controversial message about the shooting . 'He just really cared. 'He wanted to do whatever he could to . help veterans and help see that vision of serving others that Chris had. He shared that vision with all of us. He was a great man.' Mr Cox said he understood that Kyle . and Littlefield were helping Routh work through his own PTSD and he said . it was not a FITCO session. Very few public figures have spoken . out about Kyle's death, though former Republican presidential candidate . and Texan congressman Ron Paul decided to break his silence on Monday.

High Commissioner for Refugees told the Associated Press that at least 80,000 Syrians in Lebanon will spend the winter in tents . The season's first snow settled in parts of Lebanon this week, giving refugee children who have fled the war in Syria the opportunity for a snowball fight outside their tents. But, children's games aside, the winter weather heaped another layer of misery on the already grim existence of many of the estimated one million Syrians in Lebanon who have fled the civil war raging in their homeland. This week's storm, dubbed Alexa, pushed temperatures below freezing in northern Lebanon and some areas of the Bekaa Valley, which is dotted with informal refugee settlements. 'We are extremely concerned for the refugees this winter that promises to be very harsh,' Dana Sleiman of the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees told The Associated Press. Since the Syrian conflict began in March 2011, more than two million Syrians - at least half of them children - have fled the violence in their homeland to neighboring countries like Lebanon, Jordan, Turkey and Iraq. Many will spend the winter in flimsy tents with often only a plastic sheet covering the ground.

Ibrahim, who declined to give his last name, says his family does not have enough money for food or to build a sturdier shelter at the camp, which is home to around 1,000 of his compatriots. Outside his tent, men filled bags with dirt to hold down tent shelters and placed car tires and bricks atop the flimsy wooden structures to prevent the wind from tearing them apart. Elsewhere, in another nearby camp in Bekaa, around 200 Syrian refugees live in huts and derelict buildings at the foot of a mountain. They are housed in structures walled with scrap wood and poles, with roofs of plastic sheeting held down with ropes and tyres; they too are slowly freezing to death. Ahmad Hasan, a 25-year-old business studies graduate living there, told The Times: 'We have no heating oil, few warm clothes. We have had to hunt for scraps of wood to keep us warm. It has been terrible in every way.' He said that he and his fellows had been able to find work as agricultural labourers in the summer months, harvesting vegetable crops. 'When we picked potatoes, we kept the bad ones and stored them for winter, so we have something to eat when there is no work,' he said.

In Lebanon, more than 835,000 refugees live in tented camps, unused buildings or with friends or family, according to figures from the UN High Commission for Refugees. The government of the country of just 4.5million people estimates the numbers to be much higher, at around 1million. Unlike in Turkey, Jordan and Iraq, the Lebanese government is not providing facilities or land to temporarily accommodate refugees despite the continuing influx, which has effectively increased the population of the country by 25 per cent. Many Syrians in Lebanon live in . appalling conditions, finding shelter in slums, tents and tin shacks . strung with laundry lines and wedged between farmland outside towns and . cities. In the capital, . Beirut, many Syrians live in underground parking lots, under bridges and . on old construction sites with no running water, sanitation, . electricity or protection from Lebanon's sizzling summers and its . freezing winters. The country has a troubled history of hosting refugees. Palestinian families who were forced from their homeland in 1948 by the newly established state of Israel still live in squalid refugee camps across Lebanon. Their presence was seen by some as disrupting Lebanon's delicate sectarian balance and a contributing factor in the 1975 to 1990 civil war that devastated the country. Now some Lebanese worry that if official camps are set up for the latest flood of refugees from Syria, they too could become as established as those housing Palestinians. So, for now, aid agencies can help the Syrian newcomers with food, tents, blankets and clothes but they cannot set up formal refugee camps. Young Syrian refugees build a snowman: Simon Ingram of UNICEF said the agency has been able to mobilise winter supplies for Syrians in Lebabon but 'the needs will outstrip what we are able to provide' Smiling through hardship: The start of winter coincides with a polio vaccination campaign that seeks to vaccinate 750,000 children in Lebanon after an outbreak of the disease was confirmed in eastern Syria in October . A young Syrian refugee girl carries a blanket: Lebanese Minister for Social Affairs Wael Abu Faour said the government was 'trying its best' and that the army had been called in to make refugee shelters ready for winter . Ibrahim, who arrived last week, said the aid is not sufficient for the new arrivals. 'We . came here in the winter but it would have been better if we had stayed . in Syria.

'I . don't know if this tent will hold up, it's just a few flimsy pieces of . metal holding it up,' said Abu Suleiman, eyeing his tent with worry. Abu . Suleiman, who only agreed to give his nickname, has lived in the . settlement with about 40 other families since fleeing the Damascus . suburb of Jisreen five months ago with little more than the clothes on . his back. Ms Sleiman of the UNHCR said that at least 80,000 Syrians in Lebanon will spend the winter in tents. With . no end to the conflict in sight and dwindling international support to . help Syria's neighbors cover the costs and burden of providing for . influx, many of the refugees now worry about how they are going to . survive the winter. 'We . used to be scared of wolves coming inside the tents at night,' said Umm . Mohammad, a 45-year-old refugee from the contested Damascus suburb of . Daraya. 'Now there's so much more to worry about. ... How will we . survive the winter?' Simon Ingram, a spokesman for the U.N. Children's Fund, said the agency has been able to mobilise winter supplies for Syrians in Lebabon and elsewhere but 'the needs will outstrip what we and our partners are able to provide.' The start of winter coincides with a polio vaccination campaign that seeks to vaccinate 750,000 children in Lebanon after an outbreak of the disease was confirmed in eastern Syria in October. 'Polio spreads through water and sewage,' Ingram said. 'This is one the big dangers - overflowing drains.' Chief of Lebanon's Meteorological Department, Mark Whaybeh, said that in past years, snow and rainfall had increased and temperatures decreased over December and into January. 'We are still at the beginning of the season,' he said. 'We should have rain and cold periods during the next two months.' Mr Whaybeh said Alexa will last until tomorrow night and that temperatures could plummet to minus-7C in some mountainous areas of Lebanon. Minister for Social Affairs Wael Abu Faour said the government was 'trying its best' and that the army had been called in to make refugee shelters ready for winter. He told Reuters his main worry was that some refugees are living in a flood area near the Litani river.' Abu Faour said he was trying to rehouse refugees near the river, which flooded during storms in January but that so far there was no place available. 'It's beyond our capacity,' he said. 'We tried mosques, we tried schools, we have tried everything.

In terms of one-clubmanship this exemplary footballer stands just below Sir Tom Finney, the greatest of all English players who devoted his lifetime to Preston. When his country called, Stevie G never failed to answer with every sinew and fibre of his being. VIDEO Scroll down to see Steven Gerrard's Liverpool career highlights . Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has announced he will leave the club when his contract expires this summer . Gerrard has made 695 appearances and scored 180 goals for Liverpool since making his debut in 1998 . Premier League: 494 appearances, 116 goals . FA Cup: 39 appearances, 13 goals . League Cup: 28 appearances, 9 goals . Champions League: 87 appearances, 30 goals . UEFA Cup/Europa League: 42 appearances, 11 goals . Other: 5 appearances, 1 goal . TOTAL: 695 appearances, 180 goals . From which I hope you, and he, will gather the esteem in which I hold one of the proudest Merseysiders ever to wear the Anfield red. Gerrard will head west this summer – not quite into the sunset just yet but as distant as Los Angeles – as a distinguished ambassador for this, the mother country of the world game. Liverpool will spend the intervening months in celebration of one of their finest, then go into mourning at his departure. As they should. English football at large will share in the nostalgia. But the placing of Gerrard in the history of our national game is more complicated than this immediate sense of loss. However moderate the strength of the Liverpool and England teams he has graced, the poignant reality is that he falls tantalisingly just short of the greatest, even in the pantheon of midfield. The Champions League miracle-worker of Istanbul ought to have delivered more across the spectrum of the domestic game. In part that was because he stayed true to Liverpool while others, his peer Frank Lampard among them, sought fame through transfer. Gerrard, pictured celebrating against Fulham last season, almost helped the Reds to the Premier League title . Gerrard (left), pictured in action against Italy at the World Cup, retired from England duty last summer . One-club men are unlikely to harvest as many trophies. In their honesty – and Gerrard has a heart as big as the Kop - they also end up trying too hard, endeavouring to do too much in the context of their team. As he did at times with England. The bizarre failure of any England manager to effectively harness Gerrard and Lampard into a midfield partnership potentially powerful enough to lift at least a European Championship was rooted in the end in Stevie G’s reluctance to be confined mostly to the anchor-man role. That would have been the natural balancing act with Lampard’s more prolific goalscoring but Gerrard always felt he had more to give and at times over-reached himself. Then Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez (right) holds aloft the Champions League trophy with Gerrard in 2005 . Gerrard lifts the FA Cup in May 2006 after a dramatic win against West Ham at the Millennium Stadium . That loss of footing against Chelsea which caused Liverpool to stumble so fatefully on the threshold of last season’s Premier League title should not be held against the captain without whom they would never have got that close. The most profound loss was his own, condemning him never to win that championship he so richly deserved. But in a symbolic sense that slip puts into a freeze-frame the reason why he comes no higher than tenth in this list of the greatest English midfielders of all time which, to Liverpool chagrin no doubt, is topped by four of Manchester United’s finest: . 1) SIR BOBBY CHARLTON . World Cup winner extraordinaire and still this country’s leading goalscorer . Manchester United and England legend Sir Bobby Charlton (right) in action against Arsenal in 1968 . 2) BRYAN ROBSON .

Rated by Charlton as greater than himself and may well have proved him right but for his premature death among other Busby Babes in the Munich air disaster. 4) PAUL SCHOLES . The most deft feet to be allied to a computer of a brain in the modern era. Paul Scholes enjoyed an illustrious career with Manchester United before hanging up his boots in 2013 . 5) JOHNNY HAYNES . The sublime passer who invented, with Fulham and England, the diagonal cross-field ball behind the full back and in so doing became this country’s first £100-a-week footballer. 6) PAUL GASCOIGNE . The genius of this age, albeit ultimately the self-destructor of his own magical talent. 7) WILF MANNION . The Pied Piper of Middlesbrough who would have won many more trophies with his club and played dozen more games for England had he not spent World War 11 fighting for his country. Paul Gascoigne (right), pictured in action for Tottenham against Man United, was a magician with the ball . 8) RAICH CARTER . The Sunderland ball conjuror who was the darling of the north-east. 9) FRANK LAMPARD .

Provide a succinct and relevant summary of the provided text." }, { "from": "human", "value": "It's been one hell of a rollercoaster year for Manchester United, who started the year hopelessly with one manager and end it somewhat optimistically with another. Kicking off 2014 with FA Cup and League Cup elimination, David Moyes' six-year contract as boss at Old Trafford was continually questioned as United looked a shadow of their former selves under Sir Alex Ferguson's compatriot replacement. Following Moyes' sacking in April United appear to be revitalised under former Holland manager Louis van Gaal, who joined in the summer and broke the British transfer record with the signing of Angel Di Maria. Rajvir Rai reviews the year for Manchester United. David Moyes started the year under a dark cloud as he struggled as Sir Alex Ferguson's successor . JANUARY . A month that very much set the tone for the rest of David Moyes’ doomed reign saw Manchester United crash out of the FA Cup (losing to Swansea at Old Trafford at the first hurdle) and the Capital One Cup (losing on penalties against Sunderland). A humbling 3-1 defeat against Chelsea in the middle of the month left the reigning champions 14 points behind Premier League leaders Arsenal. The £37.1million signing of Juan Mata from Chelsea, however, did provide some cause for optimism. Despite a poor run in form Moyes dipped into the January transfer market by signing Juan Mata from Chelsea . FEBRUARY . Despite the addition of Mata, United still could not click into top gear and managed a single win – a 2-0 victory at Selhurst Park against Crystal Palace. United’s struggles were best summed up in the 2-2 home draw against Fulham, which saw Darren Bent score in ‘Fergie Time’ for the visitors – a sign that Old Trafford was no longer the fortress of old. Amazingly, Moyes’ side put in 81 crosses during the game, with Fulham’s Dan Burn saying afterward: ‘I’ve (not) headed that many balls since the Conference!’ On the plus side, Wayne Rooney ended speculation over his future by signing a new five-and-a-half-year contract. Mata's inclusion failed to inject much impetus into the flailing Manchester United squad as they drew to Fulham . United did have some positive news to tell fans as Wayne Rooney signed a new contract at Old Trafford . MARCH . Two successive 3-0 home defeats against Liverpool and Manchester City piled the pressure on Moyes. A 3-0 victory over Olympiakos secured United’s place in the Champions League quarter finals, but the atmosphere around certain sections of Old Trafford seemed to be growing more toxic. Marouane Fellaini’s substitution during the Manchester derby was greeted with loud applause and during the next home game, a 4-1 victory over Aston Villa, a plane carrying an anti-Moyes banner flew over the ground – though it was booed by the large sections of the home fans. United ended the month 15 points off leaders Chelsea and 10 behind Arsenal in fourth. Trust in Moyes hit an all-time low when a seemingly clueless United side fell at home to rivals Liverpool . Certain fans at Old Trafford grew frustrated with Moyes as United also lost 3-0 to neighbours Manchester City . Yaya Toure (left) and Edin Dzeko (right) celebrate goals in City's convincing victory at Old Trafford in March . APRIL . After just 10 months in job, Moyes – who was given a six-year contract after replacing Sir Alex Ferguson – was sacked. Ironically the nail in the coffin was delivered by his former club Everton who eased to a comfortable 2-0 win on the Scot’s first return to Goodison Park. Earlier in the month, United crashed out of the Champions League as they were beaten 3-1 (4-2 on agg) by Bayern Munich, despite taking a surprise lead in the Allianz Arena through Patrice Evra. Ryan Giggs took over as interim manager and started his reign with a thumping 4-0 home win over Norwich. By April it was decided that enough was enough and David Moyes was sacked as Manchester United manager . Red Devils legend Ryan Giggs was appointed as interim manager, winning his first game by thrashing Norwich . MAY . The euphoria of the Giggs era – which also saw former Class of ’92 members Phil Neville, Nicky Butty and Paul Scholes take prominent roles on the coaching staff – was punctured by a 1-0 home defeat to Sunderland. In what proved to be Giggs’ farewell game at Old Trafford – a 3-1 win over Hull – there were debuts for youngsters Tom Lawrence and James Wilson. A 1-1 draw with Southampton on the final day saw United finish 22 points behind champions City in seventh – their worst Premier League finish. Eight days after the season finished, Louis van Gaal was appointed as manager with Giggs as his assistant. In May the Premier League title was painfully handed back over to the blue side of Manchester . JUNE . With the Premier League over all eyes were on the World Cup and Van Gaal’s Holland to see what lay ahead at Old Trafford. Back in Manchester, chief executive Ed Woodward, under pressure after a botched summer 12 months earlier, swung into action as United announced the signings of Ander Herrera for £29m from Athletic Bilbao and Luke Shaw from Southampton for £30m. Alexander Buttner became the first casualty of the new era, leaving for Dynamo Moscow as speculation grew as to how Van Gaal would transform his squad. United chief Ed Woodward began the spending spree by bringing in Luke Shaw (left) and Ander Herrera (right) JULY . With the World Cup over, Van Gaal arrived for his first day of work at Carrington on the 16th. By this point stalwarts Rio Ferdinand, Nemanja Vidic and Patrice Evra, as well as a number of fringe players, had left and United were being linked with a who’s who of football: Arturo Vidal, Mats Hummels and even Cristiano Ronaldo. The Dutchman’s first press conference will be remembered for his plea that it will take three months for his new squad to understand his philosophy. But Van Gaal’s first game was a thumping 7-0 friendly win over LA Galaxy and was followed by victories over Roma and Inter Milan. July said goodbye to Manchester United defensive stalwarts Rio Ferdinand (top) and Nemanja Vidic . Left back Patrice Evra was another experienced player to leave Old Trafford, joining Juventus in July . Louis van Gaal returned from the World Cup after his Holland side reached the semi-finals of the competition . AUGUST . United’s impressive pre-season form continued with victories over Real Madrid, Liverpool and Valencia. The new era was well and truly under way as United lined up in an unfamiliar 3-5-2 formation and Rooney was appointed the club’s new captain. Optimism abounded after such an impressive pre-season, but the mood quickly changed as Swansea ruined the party on the opening day of the season, winning 2-1 at Old Trafford in Van Gaal’s first competitive game in charge. Two league draws against Burnley and Sunderland followed, as well as a humbling 4-0 defeat in the Capital One Cup to MK Dons. United again dipped into the transfer market, adding Argentine duo Marcos Rojo and Angel Di Maria for a combined £66m. United's pre-season started well with a win over Real Madrid in front of 109,318 fans at the Michigan Stadium . Van Gaal continued the spending by bringing in Marcos Rojo (left) and Angel Di Maria for a combined £66million . SEPTEMBER . September started with a bang as Radamel Falcao arrived on loan from Monaco and Daley Blind signed for £14m from Ajax – taking United’s summer spending to £160m - but academy product Danny Welbeck was sold to rivals Arsenal. At the fourth time of asking, Van Gaal finally got his first win as United thumped QPR 4-0 at Old Trafford. A week later, however, they were embarrassed again as they lost 5-3 to Leicester – squandering a 3-1 lead. United’s injury worries continued as Van Gaal was forced to turn to youngsters Tyler Blackett and Paddy McNair in the absence of Shaw, Jonny Evans, Phil Jones and Chris Smalling. Star signing Radamel Falcao and Dutch World Cup star Daley Blind also joined the United ranks in September . Leicester City brought United back down to earth after coming back from 3-1 down to win the game 5-3 . OCTOBER . With no European or Capital One Cup football, United only played three times in October, stealing last-minute points against West Brom and Chelsea after beating Everton at home – a game notable for Falcao scoring his first goal for the club. After nine games, Van Gaal’s side sat ninth with 13 points – one fewer than Moyes had at the same stage the season before. October marked Falcao's first goal for the Reds with this finish to beat former United goalkeeper Tim Howard . NOVEMBER . Defeat in the Manchester derby – courtesy of a Sergio Aguero strike and a first-half Chris Smalling red card - meant it was United’s worst start to a season since 1986. Level on points with West Brom and Newcastle, Van Gaal’s side were already 13 points behind league leaders Chelsea. But three wins on the bounce against Crystal Palace, Arsenal and Hull lifted United into the Champions League places. Two clean sheets in four games were a welcome boost after United’s defence had been so porous earlier in the season. More questions began to be asked about the United back line when Chris Smalling saw red against City . Sergio Aguero scored the only goal of the day as United's city rivals took the lead just after the hour mark . DECEMBER . United’s good form extended into the Christmas period with wins over Stoke, Southampton, Liverpool and Newcastle and draws at Aston Villa and Tottenham – meaning United finished 2014 on a nine-game unbeaten run. The upturn in form had sparked talk of a title a challenge – notably from senior players such as Rooney and Carrick – but Van Gaal’s side were still 10 points behind league leaders Chelsea and just three points ahead of Southampton and Arsenal in fourth and fifth. With the January transfer window set to open, United were again being linked with big money moves – notably a £120m move for Gareth Bale.

Jaws . was known for his enormous size and strength plus those sharp steel . teeth that he could use to bite through cables and to chomp on the neck . of his victims. Larger than life: Jaws with his towering height and metal teeth proved a formidable villain in The Spy Who Loved Me and again in Moonraker . Moore, who played the fictional British secret agent in seven films, wrote an August 2012 article in MailOnline about his favourite Bond villains. 'The . most memorable of all, however, has to be Jaws, sidekick to the evil . Karl Stromberg in The Spy Who Loved Me,' Moore, 86, wrote in the . article.

Broccoli has been credited with adding steel teeth to the Jaws character for The Spy Who Loved Me. Mercenary assassin: Kiel is shown reprising his role as Jaws in Moonraker . The teeth were designed as cog-like in shape as it was believed pointy teeth would injure Kiel. When Jaws was required to bite through something, liquorice was use.

Earlier this year, Kiel told the Daily Mail: 'To this day, I go out in sunglasses and a hat because people will shout \"Hey, Jaws!\" at me from across the street. 'The only way I can explain it is that he's like the Road Runner, which Coyote keeps trying to blow up, but he keeps going.'

Before finding fame as a Bond villain, Kiel got his career breakthrough starring as Voltaire to Dr. Miguelito Loveless in The Wild, Wild West in 1965. Born in Detroit, Michigan, Kiel made his acting debut in the television series Laramie, in an episode titled Street Of Hate. He suffered a severe head injury in a 1992 car accident that affected his balance and forced him to walk with a cane, as shown in his appearances in Happy Gilmore, or use a scooter to get around. Moore in his 2009 memoir My Word Is My Bond described how Kiel was starkly different from his Jaws character. 'Richard is so kind, so gentle,' Moore wrote of his co-star. On set: Kiel was joined by his wife Diane and their son Richard on the set of The Spy Who Loved Me in 1977, left, and plays happily on a swing with Richard and his three other children in 1982 .

They’ve paid up to $3000 to be here – to learn from the master himself. On the podium at the front isn’t a religious guru. It isn’t a business leader imparting the secrets of getting rich. It’s a guy dressed in jeans and an unironed shirt – teaching men what should be the most natural thing of all: how to talk to women. Scroll down for video . The master: Julien Blanc is a dating coach at Real Social Dynamics and commands fees of up to $3,000 to teach men his secrets . Julien Blanc, 25, is one of the most renowned 'pick-up artists' around. As a dating coach for Real Social Dynamics, the company founded by Tyler Durden (Owen Cook) and Papa (Nick Kho), Mr Blanc and his colleagues have near-rock star status amongst the men who’ve traveled from across the U.S. – earnestly writing down every insight on how to make yourself more attractive to women, and how no woman is beyond you. 'Why on earth would you need an excuse to talk to a girl?' Mr Blanc thunders from the front of the room. Scores of baseball caps nod, pencils scribble. I’ve joined the disciples for a weekend’s bootcamp as part of my TV show, Tim Samuels: The Hunt for Real Men, which explores what it’s like to be a man today. Taking notes: The author Tim Samuels traveled to Miami, Florida to learn Mr Blanc's secrets of how to pick up women . Closing the deal: As part of the bootcamp, Mr Samuels was forced to interact with female strangers in public and ask for phone numbers . How has it come to this, that men have to pay to learn how to meet women? I sit through the lectures feeling a little smug and incredulous that guys are paying serious cash for a bit of confidence boosting and common sense. 1. Never walk directly towards a woman - approach from the side as it's less threatening . 2. Don't mumble - speak as though you're on stage doing a spot of Shakespeare . 3. Don't hang around like a bad smell . 4. Try and take the woman away from her group to talk somewhere quiet . 5. Don't leave without getting a phone number . But then we’re told that after lunch . we’ve moving from the theory to the practical – chatting up total . strangers on the street. The dread kicks in. For a British bloke, the idea of walking up to a woman on the street, mid-afternoon, entirely sober and having to chat her up with the aim of getting her phone number is a living nightmare. Committing armed robbery or heading on holiday to northern Syria would be less terrifying. What on earth would you say as an opening line? How would you not sound like a complete cheese ball? Before I can bail out, Mr Blanc leads a small group of us down to the main pedestrianized shopping street. 1. Don't speak to groups of models about woollen socks . 2. Check for a wedding ring first . 3. Check for a pram first . 4. Do give up when the woman doesn't speak a word of English . 5. Don't fight your national upbringing - drink at least four pints of lager before attempting any interaction . Women . are going about their business – catching up with friends over coffee, . popping into shops, heading to fashion week events, and generally . displaying no inclination to want to be bothered by men who are paying . good money to learn how to bother them. As a few of us hang back, he demonstrates that he’s not all talk. He brazenly heads over to Starbucks . where a woman is stood outside, walks up to her, asks her where she’s . from and gets chatting. Just as that’s going well, another woman walks . past on her way into a store – he stops her, and then brings her into . the conversation. A . classic technique - which demonstrates manly confidence, engenders a . spot of competition and creates that all-important vibe that 'you’re at . the center of your own party'. Lo and behold, the second woman then asks for his number and what he’s doing that night. Astonishing stuff. And sober. Lining up: The author sat in a room packed with men who paid $3,000 each to learn how to interact with women . Buoyed by this display of manliness, I’m sent off to do my own stranger-bothering. The first girl I approach doesn’t speak a word of English. She sounds Russian. I deploy my full repertoire (‘glasnost’ and ‘perestroika’) – but she remains impassive. I’m then directed to a pair of women . who are having coffee. One has a pram. Neither has any time for me. Before I’d even opened my mouth, they raise a hand – traffic cop style – . to signal don’t even think of approaching. Down but not out, I’m pushed towards two models – who at least don’t raise any limbs towards me. What . then follows is two minutes of dire conversation, where all I can think . to ask about is where to buy socks around here, and bore myself into . submission, like a football player signalling to the coach that he wants . to come off the field. In the field: Mr Blanc demonstrates how to master the game by getting a woman's attention . Training tactics: Mr Blanc coaches his students to develop enough confidence to approach complete strangers . Gaining confidence: The men are coached through a series of scenarios and told to visualize themselves being at the center of their own party . With confidence shot to pieces, I make my final approach – to a waitress taking a break. After some initial confusion about where she came from – ‘Barcelona’ and ‘Macedonia’ can be easily confused – we manage a nice chat for a few minutes about former Yugoslavia and cocktails, before I plump up the courage to ask for a phone number. Which she actually gives me. I head off with a renewed sense of swagger – and faith in the American can-do approach to all aspects of life. It was only when my director goes back to interview her that we notice a wedding ring on her finger. She’d given me her number out of politeness. You wouldn’t get that in Britain.

A leaked copy of a United Nations report, compiled by hundreds of scientists, shows politicians in Belgium, Germany, Hungary and the United States raised concerns about the final draft. Published next week, it is expected to address the fact that 1998 was the hottest year on record and world temperatures have not yet exceeded it, which scientists have so far struggled to explain. The report is the result of six years’ work by UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which is seen as the world authority on the extent of climate change and what is causing it – on which governments including Britain’s base their green policies. Concerns: Scientists have been urged to cover up the fact that the Earth's temperature hasn't risen for the last 15 years amid fears it would provide ammunition for deniers of man-made climate change . But leaked documents seen by the Associated Press, yesterday revealed deep concerns among politicians about a lack of global warming over the past few years. Germany called for the references to the slowdown in warming to be deleted, saying looking at a time span of just 10 or 15 years was ‘misleading’ and they should focus on decades or centuries. The UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has changed its tune after issuing stern warnings about climate change for years . Hungary worried the report would provide ammunition for deniers of man-made climate change. Belgium objected to using 1998 as a starting year for statistics, as it was exceptionally warm and makes the graph look flat - and suggested using 1999 or 2000 instead to give a more upward-pointing curve. The United States delegation even weighed in, urging the authors of the report to explain away the lack of warming using the ‘leading hypothesis’ among scientists that the lower warming is down to more heat being absorbed by the ocean – which has got hotter. The last IPCC ‘assessment report’ was published in 2007 and has been the subject of huge controversy after it had to correct the embarrassing claim that the Himalayas would melt by 2035. It was then engulfed in the ‘Climategate’ scandal surrounding leaked emails allegedly showing scientists involved in it trying to manipulate their data to make it look more convincing – although several inquiries found no wrongdoing. The latest report, which runs to 2,000 pages, will be shown to representatives from all 195 governments next week at a meeting in Stockholm, who can discuss alterations they want to make. But since it was issued to governments in June, they have raised hundreds of objections about the 20-page summary for policymakers, which sums up the findings of the scientists. What it says will inform renewable energy policies and how much consumers and businesses will pay for them. The report is expected to say the rate of warming between 1998 and 2012 was about half of the average rate since 1951 – and put this down to natural variations such as the El Nino and La Nina ocean cycles and the cooling effects of volcanoes. A leaked copy of the United Nations report, compiled by hundreds of scientists, shows politicians in Belgium, Germany, Hungary and the United States have raised concerns about the final draft. Above, the United Nations headquarters building in New York . A German climate scientist - Stefan Rahmstorf, who reviewed the chapter on sea levels - yesterday admitted it was possible the report’s authors were feeling under pressure to address the slowdown in warming due to the ‘public debate’ around the issue. The draft report, which is not new research but a synthesis of all the work being done by scientists around the world, is likely to be highly disputed at the three-day meeting. It will make the case that humans are causing global warming with carbon emissions even more strongly upgrading it from ‘very likely’ in 2007 to ‘extremely likely’ it is manmade. But scientists are under pressure to explain why the warming has not exceeded 1998 levels although the decade 2000-2010 was the hottest on record. Alden Meyer, of the Union of Concerned Scientists based in Washington, said yesterday: ‘I think to not address it would be a problem because then you basically have the denialists saying: ‘Look the IPCC is silent on this issue.’ Jonathan Lynn, a spokesman for the IPCC said yesterday: ‘This is the culmination of four years’ work by hundreds of scientists, where governments get a chance to ensure the summary for policymakers is clear and concise in a dialogue with the scientists who wrote it, and have the opportunity to raise any topics they think should be highlighted.’" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Leaked United Nations report reveals the world's temperature hasn't risen for the last 15 years .\nPoliticians have raised concerns about the final draft .\nFears that the findings will encourage deniers of man-made climate change ." } ]

Click here to see Nos 40-31 . Click here to see Nos 30-21 . The centre forward: The leader from the front, the No 9, the provider, the talisman, the goalscorer. Since 1992, the Premier League has been blessed with the best, from homegrown talents Alan Shearer and Andy Cole, to foreign imports Tony Yeboah and Thierry Henry. In this international week, we are begging for goals, and these lot put the ball in the back of the net and make it look easy. Here, Sportsmail runs you through Nos 20-11 of the best strikers to have ever graced the Premier League... do you agree? 20. Sergio Aguero (Manchester City) Still in the prime of his career, there’s every chance Sergio Aguero could end up higher in this list if we were to re-visit it in five years' time. But 64 goals in 98 league outings for Manchester City isn’t a bad start. City paid a pretty penny - £38m - for the Argentine’s service back in 2011 but he didn’t waste any time making an impression, scoring a 30-yarder on debut against Swansea. And, of course, his dramatic last-gasp goal against QPR to win City the title will never be forgotten. He is arguably the best striker in the Premier League at the moment, as 12 goals in 11 games so far this season in an otherwise shaky team have testified. Sergio Aguero has been a hit for Manchester City ever since his £38m move from Atletico Madrid in 2011 . Aguero scored a dramatic late winner against QPR to help City win the Premier League title in 2012 ahead of Manchester United . 19. Carlos Tevez (West Ham, Manchester United, Manchester City) From one Argentine hotshot to another, Tevez dragged West Ham to Premier League survival in 2007 with seven priceless goals, including the winner at Old Trafford on the final day of the season. His move to Manchester United that summer was protracted but Tevez was an instant favourite, winning hearts for his committed and high-energy performances. Sir Alex Ferguson bought him to score important goals and that’s what he did, especially in his first season when he ended up a Premier League and Champions League winner. Calls to 'sign him up' fell on deaf ears and Tevez joined rivals City, prompting the famous 'Welcome to Manchester' billboard. Tevez struck 23 and then 20 league goals in his first two seasons, and netted 58 times in all before leaving for Juventus. Carlos Tevez helped West Ham avoid relegation from the Premier League after joining from Brazilian side Corinthians . Tevez played for both Manchester giants, the highlight of which being his two Premier League titles with United in 2008 and 2009 . 18. Luis Suarez (Liverpool) Some would argue with his racism and biting controversies, Suarez should be nowhere near this list. But we’re hear to talk purely about goals and 69 Premier League strikes in 110 matches for Liverpool means there is certainly a place. This was the man who powered Liverpool to within touching distance of their first post-1992 title last season with 31 goals. And the season before that, he claimed 30. Suarez averaged a hat-trick every 20 games, the best rate of all the players to have score more than one treble in the Premier League. Aided by Daniel Sturridge, he smashed all kinds of records last season and, despite adversity, won the Golden Boot and the PFA Player of the Year award. Luis Suarez scored 31 goals last season to lead Liverpool to the brink of the Premier League title . The Uruguayan was named PFA Player of the Year and sealed a £75m dream move to Barcelona in the summer . 17. Stan Collymore (Nottingham Forest, Liverpool, Aston Villa, Leicester City, Bradford City) One of the Premier League’s finest strikers of the mid- to late-Nineties, Collymore scored a remarkable 41 goals in 65 league appearances for Nottingham Forest and 28 in 64 for Liverpool. After helping Forest back up to the top division in 1994, Collymore’s 22 goals helped them to an unexpected third-place finish. Forging an irrepressible strike partnership with Robbie Fowler, he averaged a goal every 2.5 games for Liverpool and created many more. His dramatic late winner against Newcastle United, destroying their titles hopes in 1996, will never be forgotten. Stan Collymore scores a dramatic late winner against Newcastle in Liverpool's famous 4-3 win in 1996 . Collymore scored 41 goals in 65 league outings for Nottingham Forest and helped them back into England's top-flight . 16. Matt Le Tissier (Southampton) The ultimate one-club man, Le Tissier’s record of 100 Premier League goals and 209 overall for Southampton rivals any attacker. He was already an established goalscorer by the time the Premier League was formed in 1992 and continued in the rich vein afterwards. He had an uncanny ability to score classy goals - that immaculate control and blistering finish against Newcastle in 1993 sticks in the memory. Oh and the touch, swivel and 30-yard volley later in the match. His awesome penalty record must not be overlooked either - unfazed by pressure, he scored all but one of his spot-kicks. Little wonder he is worshipped as 'Le God' on the south coast. Matt Le Tissier scored 209 goals for Southampton during his 16 years with the south coast club . Le Tissier shoots against Manchester United in 1996 on a day Southampton won 3-1 but the match is better remembered for THAT kit . 15. Dwight Yorke (Aston Villa, Manchester United, Blackburn Rovers, Birmingham, Sunderland) With his smile and relaxed gait, Yorke is probably the most laid-back striker on this list but when it came to the business of scoring goals, he was deadly serious. The hotshot from Tobago first shot to prominence at Aston Villa, converting to a striker in the 1995-1996 season and helping Villa to League Cup success. In all, he scored 73 league goals for the club both before and after 1992. Yorke joined Manchester United in 1998 and was the missing piece in Ferguson’s jigsaw as his haul of 29 goals and telepathic partnership with Andy Cole ended in Treble glory. He continued to score at a prodigious rate for United, helping them to a further two Premier League titles in 2000 and 2001. Dwight Yorke scored 73 league goals for Aston Villa and helped them to League Cup success before moving to Manchester United . Yorke moved to Manchester United and formed a formidable strike partnership with Andy Cole (right) 14. Gianfranco Zola (Chelsea) The man Claudio Ranieri described as a ‘wizard’ and Alex Ferguson called a ‘clever little so-and-so’ was the star of Chelsea’s first cosmopolitan team in the late Nineties. His £4.5m price tag proved a bargain and he helped Ruud Gullit’s team to FA Cup glory in 1997, as well as the League Cup and European Cup-Winners’ Cup the following season. Gloriously skilful and a regular goalscorer, he was adored by the Chelsea faithful, who voted him their best-ever player in a 2003 survey. In all, he scored 59 goals in 229 league matches for the Blues. His audacious mid-air back heel against Norwich in the FA Cup in 2002 was the pick of his goals.

Teddy Sheringham (Nottingham Forest, Tottenham, Manchester United, Portsmouth, West Ham) Sheringham’s professional career spanned an incredible 24 years, giving plenty of time to fit in his grand total of 355 goals. His first Premier League involvement was with Forest, briefly, and then Tottenham, with whom he became the maiden season’s top scorer in 1992-1993. He continued to score at a furious rate before moving to Manchester United for £3.5m in 1997 as the replacement for Eric Cantona. The success and silverware that eluded him for most of his career quickly arrived, with three Premier League title wins, an FA Cup and the Champions League. He famously scored United’s last-gasp equaliser in the final with Bayern Munich and was named PFA Player of the Year in 2001. He returned to Spurs after United and also represented Portsmouth and West Ham, finally hanging up his shooting boots aged 42. Teddy Sheringham's scored 355 goals during his glittering 24-year professional career . Sheringham won the Premier League three times with Manchester United and also tasted Champions League glory in 1999 . 12. Ruud van Nistelrooy (Manchester United) One of the best goal poachers the Premier League has ever seen, Dutchman Van Nistelrooy scored at an incredible rate for Man United, 150 times in all across just five seasons. His £18.5m transfer from PSV Eindhoven in 2000 was put back a year because of concerns over his knees but once in the United attack, there was no stopping him. RVN scored 23 in 32 league games in his first season, including in eight consecutive matches, then 25 in the next as United regained their title. He was the league’s Player of the Season in 2003 and later broke Denis Law’s European scoring record. He scored 21 goals in his final season at United before joining Real Madrid. Ruud van Nistelrooy's goals helped Manchester United to Premier League glory in 2003 and FA Cup success the year after . Van Nistelrooy joined United from PSV in a £19million deal and scored over 20 league goals in four of his five seasons . 11. Les Ferdinand (QPR, Newcastle United, Tottenham, West Ham, Leicester City, Bolton Wanderers) Direct and deadly in front of goal, Ferdinand racked up 149 goals in the Premier League. The first of those came with QPR and in the inaugural PL campaign, his 20 goals carrying the west London club to an unlikely fifth place finish. He backed this up with hauls of 16 and 24 in the next two campaigns, prompting title challengers Newcastle to pay £6m for his services. His 25 goals in 1995-1996 took Newcastle to within touching distance of the title, though they ultimately blew a 12-point lead to allow Manchester United to profit. Forging a successful partnership with Alan Shearer, he scored 41 league goals in all on Tyneside. After moving to Tottenham, his vital goals spared them from relegation and he later played at West Ham, Leicester and Bolton.

Scholes, however, does not blame Hodgson for Sterling's set-back, rather pressure from Liverpool. He continued: 'That injury to Sturridge was not Hodgson’s fault.

Investigators, including the Air Force's own Inspector General, say that Eric Thomas was instrumental in 'Operation Gridiron,' which led to 37 cadets being kicked out of the academy, including four football players and four basketball players. Two offenders, including star defensive back Jamil Cooks, were sentenced to prison time after being convicted of rape. Shunned: Eric Thomas was kicked out of the Air Force after working as an undercover informant in an investigation that led to 37 cadets being expelled . The investigation involved 16 members of the Air Force Falcons football team. Four players were eventually kicked out - two of them sentenced to jail time for committing rape. Jamil Cooks (no 46) was sentenced to five months behind bars but was suspected of half a dozen rapes, authorities say . Air Force football stars Anthony Daniels (left) and Jamil Cooks (right) were both arrested, court martialed convicted and served jail time for sexual assault . 'I was crucified, I was told how much of a terrible cadet I was,' Thomas told ABC News. Lieutenant General Michael Gould, who led the academy until recently, told ABC News that Thomas 'deserved to be disenrolled.' 'You would not want that particular individual to be an officer in our Air Force today,' he said. The landmark investigation, the biggest ever in the history of the Air Force Academy, has been hailed as a major step toward cleaning up a toxic culture in the athletic department and cracking down on sexual assault - which has become an epidemic in the US military. But Mr Thomas, and his handler Office of Special Investigations Sergeant Brandon Enos, paid the price. Thomas said that as more and more players on the Air Force's vaunted football team became the subject of investigation, he found himself the target of disciplinary hearings. The Air Force Falcons football team has brought in millions of dollars in ticket sales, TV deals and alumni donations. As investigators turned up the heat on the team, many top boosters and powerful officers began to show their displeasure with the digging. Mr Thomas admits that he had received several demerits, but says nearly all of his discipline was a result of performing duties for his undercover work. The investigation rocked the Air Force Academy to its core and angered many top generals and alumni donors . Lt. General Michael Gould was superintendent of the Air Force Academy at the time and condemned Mr Thomas' actions, saying he should never be an Air Force officer . Sgt. Brian Enos, Mr Thomas' handler, was also drummed out of the Air Force . Sgt Enos was told by his supervisors not to testify in Mr Thomas' defense and the Office of Special Investigations worked to deny that  Mr Thomas had even been a part of the investigation. Mr Thomas was recruited as an informant by Sgt Enos in April 2011. At the time he was a cadet and a third-string linebacker on the Air Force Falcons football team. He agreed at times to wear a wire and report any claims of sexual assault that he encountered. What he recorded for investigators was shocking. He went to one party where football players only let women drink out of a Captain Morgan rum bottle with a blue cap. The blue cap, the players said, meant that they had put date rape drugs in the drink. At that same party, he heard about players gang raping an unconscious woman. Cadets, including football players, also smoked synthetic marijuana and did other drugs at the party, authorities say. 'I can confidently say there would have been no convictions at the academy probably to this day without Eric,' Sgt Enos told ABC. However, Sgt Enos didn't fair much better than Mr Thomas. He says he was stripped of his badge and transferred to a job picking up garbage for the Air Force - essentially drummed out. He eventually left after claiming medical disability. New York Senator Kirsten Gillibran has called Mr Thomas' dismissal 'a case of retaliation.' She has called for a full investigation. Mr Thomas, meanwhile, is appealing the dismissal and has moved back home to South Dakota.

The Independent Complaints Commission launched an investigation, which concluded no criminal charges would be brought. Police and Crime Commissioner Sue Mountstevens (left) has been forced to apologise after she disclosed the name of a complainant to Chief Constable Nick Gargan (right) But the enquiry was brought into disrepute after it emerged Police and Crime Commissioner Sue Mountstevens told Mr Gargan the name of one woman who had made a complaint. She said: 'In May 2014, I was made aware by a member of my team that someone had approached them and made a verbal complaint against Chief Constable Nick Gargan. 'During a subsequent conversation with Mr Gargan I was discussing a concern I had around how that individual was coping generally, and I mentioned that a complaint had been made against him by that person. 'At the time of the conversation I was not aware of the full facts which became apparent subsequently - including the detail of the allegations being made and the request for whistle-blower status.' Ms Mountstevens, who is an Independent Party member, said as soon as she became aware of the seriousness of the allegations she voluntarily referred the details of the conversation to the watchdog. She added: 'A complaint about the disclosure of the name was subsequently made to the Police and Crime Panel, who looked into the matter and found that I had made a mistake. Head of Avon and Somerset Police, Nick Gargan, 47, was suspended in May after allegations of sexual harassment emerged - they included making inappropriate compliments about the appearance of 35 women . 'I agreed with their finding and I have already written to the individual concerned to apologise for the distress I caused.

'This was a new situation for me and, while I could have handled it better, I have learnt from it and employees within the constabulary can feel confident approaching me or my team if they have issues they feel uncomfortable raising elsewhere. 'There are a number of ways staff and officers can raise issues confidentially which include speaking to their line manager, reporting it to the Professional Standards department or by using an anonymous phone line or email system.' Mr Gargan was suspended on full pay, around £150,000 a year, just 13 months after being appointed by Ms Mountstevens. It is claimed he sent a text to one young officer saying: 'You are doing a great job - do you fancy a drink tonight?' Complaints were made by two female members of staff and over 50 officers and staff from the constabulary were interviewed during the investigation. The British embassy in Paris: According to sources, his close relationship with a senior embassy colleague's daughter was hushed up, and after returning home Mr Gargan, now 47, continued his rise through the ranks . The IPCC has now finished its probe and sent a report to Ms Mountstevens who will decide next month if there is a case to answer for either misconduct or gross misconduct. Mr Gargan denies any wrongdoing. During the investigation it also emerged that Mr Gargan had left a previous post at the British embassy in Paris after he developed a close relationship with a senior colleague’s daughter. It is thought the affinity developed while he was working in France on the investigation into the death of Princess Diana.

The number comes from figures buried in a 15-page section of the nonpartisan organization's new ten-year budget outlook. The best-case scenario described by the CBO would result in 'between 24 million and 27 million' fewer Americans being uninsured in 2025, compared to the year before the Affordable Care Act took effect. Pulling that off will cost Uncle Sam about $1.35 trillion – or $50,000 per head. SCROLL DOWN TO READ THE REPORT . THE $2 TRILLION DOLLAR MAN: President Barack Obama was in India on Monday when the Congressional Budget Office reported the federal government's gross costs for a decade of Obamacare will be $1.993 trillion . PROMISES: Obama pledged in 2009 during a speech before a joint session of Congress that his health insurance proposal would cost $900 billion over ten years – a far cry short of current numbers . The numbers are daunting: It will take $1.993 trillion, a number that looks like $1,993,000,000,000, to provide insurance subsidies to poor and middle-class Americans, and to pay for a massive expansion of Medicaid and CHIP (Children's Health Insurance Program) costs. Offsetting that massive outlay will be $643 billion in new taxes, penalties and fees related to the Obamacare law. That revenue includes quickly escalating penalties – or 'taxes,' as the U.S. Supreme Court described them – on people who resist Washington's command to buy medical insurance. It also includes income from a controversial medical device tax, which some Republicans predict will be eliminated in the next two years. If they're right, Obamacare's per-person cost would be even higher. President Barack Obama pledged to members of Congress in 2009, as his signature insurance overhaul law was being hotly debated, that 'the plan I'm proposing will cost around $900 billion over 10 years.' It would be a significant discount if the White House could return to that number today. PRICEY: The federal government will spend $50,000 for each person recruited to buy insurance or neroll in free Medicaid through the Obamacare exchanges . In that same speech, Obama claimed that there were 'more than 30 million American citizens who cannot get coverage.' $900 billion spent on those people would equate to no more than $30,000 each – less than two-thirds of what the CBO now says the program will cost when the dust settles. The CBO and the Joint Committee on Taxation, a group of members from both houses of Congress, prepared Monday's report on the overall direction of the federal budget. They estimated that 'the net costs of the coverage provisions of the ACA [Affordable Care Act] will rise sharply as the effects of the act phase in from 2015 through 2017.' Those costs will 'rise steadily through 2022' before leveling off for three years, the groups' economists determined. But even at that point, the Obamacare program will cost the governemnt 'about $145 billion' each year. That number doesn't include the insurance premiums and out-of-pocket health care costs paid by Americans – only the government's role in implementing the law and paying for its guarantees. And the law will still leave 'between 29 million and 31 million' nonelderly Americans without medical insurance, says the CBO.

Now, police reveal, he vowed to murder the 13-year-old girl who first accused him of sexually assaulting her. Lewis was arrested Tuesday night in Fort Edward, New York, after crashing his Jeep into the Hudson River during a brief chase. Police say he kidnapped, raped and robbed at least six women in North Carolina, Colorado, and Oregon during his crime spree that began on September 15. However, at the time of his arrest, he was 165 miles from Southbridge, Massachusetts, the hometown where his alleged teenage victim lives. Police said on Wednesday that during his crime spree, he told people he encountered that he planned to kill the 13-year-old victim.

He was released on $1,000 bail, a decision which left many dumbfounded.

'I hope that the judicial system will fix some of those mistakes because it’s wreaked havoc across the country.'

One week later, on September 23, ABC affiliate WSOC in Charlotte has reported that Lewis attacked a 29-year-old woman at a motel on Yorkmont Road. The woman who didn't want to use her name said Lewis told her she he lived in Charlotte. 'I met him on Plenty of Fish, a dating website,' the woman told WSOC by phone. It was just after arriving at the motel that Lewis began to attack the woman. 'He put me in a choke hold and put handcuffs on me with my hands behind my back and said I'm not going to hurt you I just want your money,' she said. to WSOC. The woman managed to engineer her escape after telling Lewis that most of her money was in her car.

Police put out detailed identifying information in an attempt to find him, including a tattoo of a demonic female figure on his right upper arm and a tattoo of a hand holding a knife with a broken handcuff on his chest. When they reached the parking lot, she fled. Police have released several surveillance photos of Lewis from recent days, but have admitted he may have shaved his facial hair.

Last night, Tory backbenchers lined up to express their disgust at the ‘distasteful’ and ‘sick’ comments, and the idea that the Prime Minister would use his son for such a purpose. Mr Cameron has previously spoken about his admiration for the NHS and how it helped care for his son. At the last Tory conference, he questioned how Labour could ‘dare’ to claim he does not care about the Health Service when it had been so important for his family.

They should be withdrawn immediately.’ Philip Davies, Tory MP for Shipley, said: ‘Left-wingers like this are always the first to take offence in what others say, but think it is fine to make the vilest comments themselves. ‘This just goes to show how deeply unpleasant people on the Left are – something many of us see day in day out, but others tend not to see.

'I knew they were a very good team but I didn't know they were as good as they are. Raheem Sterling (right) is one of many English talents to have impressed Balotelli at Liverpool . 'Of course we need to improve many things because we have started off not very good but I think the players here are amazing.

Maria Treme's ordeal happened on June 30 after she went to The Country Club, a Bywater hot spot where A-listers Beyonce, Jay Z and Solange, partied less than a month later. Ms Tremem 30, had gone to the venue to drink with a girlfriend, and had sunbathed naked, which the club allows. But after five hours beside the pool and $36 worth of drinks she blacked out. Maria Treme, 30, said she woke up with bruised thighs and immediately knew she had been 'roofied' The next day, she told WWL-TV, she woke up with bruises on her inner thighs and a lubricant beside her bed which she had never seen before. Her car keys were also gone. She said: 'I didn't know where they came from and I immediately knew I was roofied because I know how much I had to drink, I know how much I can drink and there was zero memory, nothing.' Accompanied by a friend, she went back to the club where she watched security footage to help her piece together what had happened the night before. What she saw and heard from eyewitnesses shocked her. As well as signing a much larger bar tab and shouting at a bar tender, she learned that she had had sex with one man in the pool, another in the sauna, and had gone home with a third man dressed only in a towel. Ms Treme isn't claiming all the the men raped her, and only wants to find the person who drugged her. She said: 'I'm kind-of of the opinion that if there's three innocent people and one that's not, I'm not gonna take down the three innocent people because this one person wants to be a sicko, you know?' Scene: The incident took place at The Country Club, a Bywater hot spot which allows nude sunbathing . Beyonce and Jay Z, seen here with Jack Gyllenhaal at the premiere of his new movie this week, went to the Country Club on July 21, along with Beyonce's sister Solange . According to authorities, drug rape is common in New Orleans, which has a culture of heavy drinking. Leah Foster, director of Trauma Recovery Services at New Orleans Family Justice Center, said the crime wasn't necessarily on the rise, but was receiving far more publicity. One high profile case involves former Saints star Darren Sharper who is accused of drugging and raping women in New Orleans and in four other states. But unlike in the Sharper case, where he is accused of using drugs that incapacitated the woman involved, Ms Treme is believed to have been drugged with a substance that simply makes its victims forget what they've done. All traces of it, also disappear from the body within 12 hours. Ms Treme said: 'That's where it gets tricky because, I mean, I saw myself on video walking out of there, laughing and waving to the bartender, stumbling out of there, and, you know, this guy's drunk, I appear to be drunk and I just don't think it would be right for me to say everybody raped me.' Ms Treme is also angry at the way the New Orleans Police Department (NOPD) handled her case. By the time they took her to hospital for testing, it was too late for doctors to find traces of the drug used in her system. Former Saints star Darren Sharper is accused of drugging and raping women in New Orleans and in four other states; he is accused of using drugs that incapacitated the women involved before having sex with them . Ms Foster said 'the number one thing' anyone suspected of being raped should do, is get to the hospital immediately. The NOPD defended its decision to gather more evidence before taking Ms Treme to the hospital. A police spokesman said that's standard procedure for such an investigation and said the department wants to keep working with Ms Treme. Ginesse Barrett, a forensic nurse at Interim LSU Hospital's SAFE unit, says sex predators often use GHB, or LIquid X, which can be made at home and only stays in a victim's system for 12 hours. The drug is known to lower peoples inhibitions. Another factor in the case is that New Orleans police also has a bad reputation for solving sex crimes. Reported rape cares there are far below any other U.S. city with a major crime problem. And a survey of 90 sex crimes in the area last year found nearly half of them had been mischaracterized as lesser offenses. Ms Treme said she has received a lot of support from women friends who say they had experienced similar things, but she is also getting criticized for not pursuing charges against all of the men she had sex with. Sarah Ney, The Country Club's vice president and attorney, told WWL-TV that the club has very strict rules against sex on the premises and works hard to protect its clients.

The Premier League champions will host Barca at the Etihad Stadium on February 24 before a trip to the Nou Camp three weeks later. Sportsmail guides you through the mouthwatering second round clash. Lionel Messi and Sergio Aguero do battle in the same fixture at the same stage last season . Will Manchester City be happy with their draw? Well, director of football Txiki Begiristain said immediately after the draw that City were 'very confident'. And who can blame them given the last couple of weeks? 'We have plenty of confidence with the way we qualified beating Bayern Munich at home and Roma away,' he said. 'The players will be working hard to get fit and arrive in confidence for those games. Have the two teams met before? Just a bit - this is exactly the same tie as last season's second round. City were beaten 4-1 on aggregate, largely thanks to Martin Demichelis horror performance at the Etihad Stadium. Manuel Pellegrini's side were barely in it from the off. Who do Manchester City have to watch out? A certain Lionel Messi is said to be a dab hand in these Champions League knockout games and is certain to cause even the very best all sorts of problems. Barcelona's Messi has proven a thorn in the side of a number of top clubs over the last decade . Whether Luis Suarez is able to arrest his slump since joining the Catalans over the summer remains to be seen, and encouragingly for City, the Uruguayan only scored once in four games against them while at Liverpool. An awful lot rests on the shoulders of Sergio Aguero, so the importance of Gerard Pique cannot be underestimated; he is the sort of defender who is capable of shackling the Argentine in full flight. And what about the managers? Luis Enrique is very much a novice at this level and that could be the sort of weakness City try and play on. Manuel Pellegrini is one of the best tactical coaches in Europe and definitely has the upper hand over the young boss. Manuel Pellegrini is one of the most tactically astute managers in European elite football . What kind of draw is it for the fans? Supporters flying from Manchester to Barcelona can get tickets for around £250, so it's not the cheapest option available from the draw. That coupled with the fact many will have been at last season's second leg doesn't make it as appealing as you'd perhaps imagine. From the airport, hop on a train to Sants station and then take the green metro line to Les Corts. What has it done for Manchester City's chances of winning the Champions League? No bookie seems to know what's going to happen here - the odds of both sides winning the competition have actually lengthened. There weren't too many draws more favourable than this for City, particularly given Barcelona's indifference under Enrique, although it was they who drifted the furthest afterwards." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Champions League draw throws up Manchester City against Barcelona .\nIt is a repeat of last season's second round tie, which Barca won .\nSergio Aguero, Yaya Toure, Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez to do battle ." } ]

The fund was created by Ingenious Media in 2008 to take advantage of a policy set up by Gordon Brown when he was Chancellor, which allowed investors to slash their tax bills if they backed the film industry. Scroll down for video . Socceroos star Tim Cahill has been linked to an alleged tax avoidance scheme in the UK . Documents show Cahill, who currently plays for the New York Red Bulls, is one of 229 sports stars, actors and politicians who paid a total of £1.2 billion ($2.2 billion) into Phoenix, the Sydney Morning Herald reported. The film funding scheme was initially approved by Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC), but HMRC officials now believe that Phoenix might have been aimed primarily at avoiding tax and not bolstering the British film industry. There is no suggestion Phoenix investors did anything illegal but HMRC officials wrote to them in May last year rejecting their claims for tax relief. It is not known how much each individual paid into Phoenix but the average amount was £5.2million, and the minimum investment amount to be eligible for tax breaks was £100,000. The football player has been linked to the alleged tax avoidance scheme . Among those who invested in schemes connected to Ingenious Media are David and Victoria Beckham, Tory MP Geoffrey Cox QC, Sir Michael Caine, and British celebrity chef Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall.

'I always want to be transparent about and indeed comfortable with my investments and my tax affairs, so earlier this year I resigned my subscription to this particular investment and handed back all the tax gain I had made, plus interest, to HMRC.' Phoenix bought the distribution and production rights to the 2010 re-make of the 1980s TV series The A-Team and Gulliver' s Travels. Investors could make significant profits if the films prospered at the box office. However, Ingenious Media, which ran the partnership, admitted in 2011 that 'box office performance had not met expectations' and was unlikely to deliver 'significant upside'. Regardless of the poor returns, investors were able to claim tax relief worth about half the cash they put in. Phoenix is one of more than 1,200 alleged avoidance schemes identified by HMRC where investors are being forced to hand over unpaid tax before their disputes are settled by a tribunal. .

The family of a Dallas nurse who cared for Ebola victim Thomas Eric Duncan then caught the disease herself have angrily denied she was 'careless' in flying to Ohio and back while carrying the virus. Amber Vinson, 29, who works at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, caught Ebola after helping to care for Duncan. She then went on a trip to Ohio and back - and was hospitalized with the virulent illness hours after her return. In the wake of her trip 153 people are being monitored for signs of the disease, and three are in quarantine. In a statement released by her family today, they say Vinson would never 'knowingly' put anybody at risk, was vigilant in testing herself for signs, and followed all the relevant protocols. The statement attacked any suggestion that she ignored medical or government guidelines. Medical staff dealing with Ebola are allowed to fly provided they wore protective gear while dealing with the virus. The statement said she reported her body temperature three times before boarding her flight home last week.The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has acknowledged Vinson checked in repeatedly and was cleared for travel. Cleveland station WOIO reported the family's statement and said that they feel public comments and media outlets 'mischaracterize Amber and her actions'. It said: 'Suggestions that she ignored any of the physician and government-provided protocols recommended to her are patently untrue and hurtful. Scroll down for video . Infection scare: 153 people are being monitored - and three are under quarantine - in Ohio as a result of a visit Vinson made while unknowingly carrying Ebola .

'Although the majority of the correspondences we have received since her diagnosis have been positive, we are troubled by some of the negative public comments and media coverage that mischaracterize Amber and her actions . 'To be clear, in no way was Amber careless prior to or after her exposure to Mr. Thomas Eric Duncan. She has not and would not knowingly expose herself or anyone else.' Three people have been quarantined in northeast Ohio following Vinson's visit to Cleveland to prepare for her wedding. None of the three, quarantined after new monitoring guidelines by the state, has exhibited Ebola-like symptoms. Treatment: Vinson is now being cared for in Atlanta, having originally been admitted to Texas Health Presbyterian, where she works . Flight: Vinson went to Ohio after treating Thomas Eric Duncan. She checked whether she could fly and got approval from the CDC. By the time her flight home landed she had a fever . 'Patient zero': Thomas Eric Duncan was the first person to die of Ebola in the United States. He brought the virus over from Liberia, his homeland, and died on October 8 . Every day, the Ebola sufferers in the United States and their caregivers produce an astonishing eight 55-gallon barrels of medical waste PER DAY. Masks, gloves, linens, utensils, medical instruments--everything the patient contacts must be destroyed and the garbage is piling up. While one surefire way to destroy the pathogen is to incinerate the waste, some states have already said 'no way' to requests they accept the tainted garbage. Missouri's attorney general has even made moves to bar Ebola-contaminated waste from being destroyed at a St. Louis facility, reports the LA Times. Earlier this month, a Louisiana waste disposal site refused to accept the ashes generated when a Thomas Eric Duncan's belongings from his apartment were incinerated and a judge even signed an order temporarily blocking the disposal in the state. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Dr. Thomas Frieden said during a news conference that the virus is not considered to be hardy in the environment and that incineration and chemical treatment of the infected waste is sufficient to remove any risk. Initially, only Vinson's stepfather had been quarantined, in his home in suburban Akron. The two others, in Cuyahoga County, which includes Cleveland, and in Summit County, were quarantined after. Ohio governor John Kasich ordered the new guidelines, which include travel restrictions, on Saturday. A state health official said the guidelines are meant to remove any chance of Ebola spreading. 'As we've seen, travel is a potential problem,' state epidemiologist Dr. Mary DiOrio said. 'It's why the people of Ohio are dealing with the situation we have right now.' Under the guidelines, anyone who has had direct contact with the skin, mucus membranes, blood or bodily fluids of someone diagnosed with Ebola must be quarantined for 21 days. Anyone who did not have direct skin contact but reported spending more than an hour in close proximity to an infected person is not to travel commercially for 21 days. Such people also are to seek permission to travel outside the health jurisdictions where they live. People who were in the same enclosed space as an Ebola carrier are not to travel outside the U.S. Workplace: Vinson is a nurse at Texas Health Presbyterian hospital, which treated the United States' first Ebola victim . Kasich said the federal government should ban travel from West African countries hit hardest by the Ebola epidemic, which has killed thousands of people, mainly in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea. Vinson cared for a man who died from the disease in Dallas. She was diagnosed last week. She flew from Dallas to Cleveland on Oct. 10 and flew back on Oct. 13. Ebola is spread through bodily fluids. Someone who is infected does not become contagious until he or she shows symptoms of the disease. Health officials have said Vinson exhibited some symptoms while in Ohio. There are 153 people being monitored in Ohio because of contact or potential contact with Vinson. They include people with whom Vinson had direct contact, those who visited the Akron bridal shop where her bridesmaids tried on dresses on Oct. 11 and those who were passengers on the flights she took. Vinson is being cared for at a specialized unit at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta. Her family said she is a 'deeply committed nurse driven by a fundamental passion for helping others.'

He is known for his courageous exploits, including making the last recorded bow and arrow kill in wartime, saving 500 people in Jerusalem from certain death and capturing German troops with the use of his Claybeg sword - a smaller version of a Claymore. Mad Jack made the last wartime kill with a bow and arrow and represented Great Britain at and international archery contest . When once asked about the basket-hilted blade, Churchill - who prepared his men for battle by playing bagpipes - said: 'In my opinion, any officer who goes into action without his sword is improperly dressed.' Espen Lazarus, co-founder of the Royal Explorers Club, and researcher of the currently untitled book, said: 'When we first read the stories of Jack Churchill, it immediately become obvious that it would strengthen the book greatly to tell his tale.

The picture was sent to him by German officer Wilhelm Herz (left, facing camera) in 1969 . Lt. Churchill (far right) leading the charge at Maaloy, Finland with his sword in hand . Lt Colonel Churchill regularly brought his trusty basket-hilted Claybeg sword, a set of bagpipes and a longbow into battle. Born in Surrey in 1906 he graduated from the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst and joined the 2nd Battalion of the Manchester Regiment in 1926. His glittering career won him two Distinguished Service Orders and the Military Cross. His son, Malcolm Churchill, 71, also from Surrey, explained when these weapons were used. He said: 'He would use the bagpipes to rouse the troops before battle and he's the last soldier to be credited with killing somebody with a bow and arrow.' 'Mad Jack' made the last ever recorded bow and arrow kill in WW2 when he shot a German officer in 1940 while holding the village of l'Epinette in France. Malcolm added: 'He and his section were in a tower and as the Germans approached he said, 'I will shoot that first German with an arrow' and that's exactly what he did and they held the rest off with machine guns.' Lt Colonel Churchill used his bagpipes to raise the morale of his troops and lower that of the enemy. He launched into a rousing rendition of the March of the Cameron Men before raiding a German garrison in Operation Archery in Vaagso, Norway in 1941. Lt Churchill playing the bagpipes. he famously played the instrument to rouse his troops . After recovering from an injury he sustained in the operation, he further raised his profile by leading troops through Sicily and then the landings in Salerno. It was here that, with the help of a corporal, he captured 42 German troops and a mortar crew with just the use of his Claybeg. But on a later assignment in Yugoslavia in 1944, he and his troops were struck by a German attack and he was sent to the notorious Sachsenhausen concentration camp. Malcolm said: 'He shouldn't have been captured inasmuch as he was a colonel and shouldn't have been in the front lines.

Despite these amazing feats, however, Mad Jack, who died in 1996 at the age of 89, didn't spend much time boasting. Malcolm added: 'He didn't brag about these things at all but he would be happy to talk to anyone who asked, particularly if it was over a couple of nice glasses of wine in the evening. Mother ran the house, not him. Father was quite happy to have things quiet at home.' Mad Jack's civilian efforts were nearly as impressive as his wartime feats as he represented Great Britain in the 1939 World Archery Championships, worked as a professional bagpiper, played roles in films such as Ivanhoe and The Thief of Baghdad, and was commemorated in a comic strip. Malcolm added: 'He was slightly eccentric. He had very unusual taste but was happy so long as he was doing his own thing.'

For developers Sumo Digital have not simply repackaged Nintendo’s winning formula, but have carved their own niche. The result is a wonderful, often moving, tribute to the golden age of gaming – a high speed trip down memory lane exploring the titles which shaped video game history. Vibrant: Graphics stay true to each one of SEGA's masterpieces, while giving them a current-gen twist. Thankfully, every bit of SEGA’s work has been handled with respect and care. You’ll race across the aircraft carrier decks made famous in Afterburner, meander through the orange canyons of Panzer Dragoon, and weave through rivers of lava in Golden Axe. The visuals, too, are exceptional – striking a perfect balance between achieving nostalgia without taking away from each one’s distinct artistic direction. Colours are vibrant, draw distances impressive and every mascot has been lovingly restored in pixel-perfect glory. Refreshingly, gameplay has had as much love and care spent on it, too. For starters, it doesn’t simply involve driving around in a cart. Instead, your vehicle can transform into a boat or plane to adapt to the ever-changing levels. Laps are rarely the same, and see you gliding through the skies one minute, and tackling waves the next. All vehicles handle very differently. In cart mode, you can drift around corners to accumulate boost, while you’re encouraged to zip through checkpoints when in plane form. Boats bob up and down gleefully, handling in a way reminiscent of Wave Racer. It’s this variation in gameplay that makes the career mode so enjoyable – all too often the weakest hand in these sort of games. There’s even an XP system, which allows you to upgrade your character and their vehicle. Other modes include World Tour, Grand Prix and Battle Arenas. Multiplayer, though, is where most of the fun is – both offline or when taking on up to 10 players online. Old favourites: There's a large roster of SEGA stars to choose from, each with their own powers and cart. Although graphics and frame rate take a hit when competing in split-screen mode, there are wonderfully inventive party modes (that are best left a surprise), as well as more traditional racing. That’s what best describes All-Stars Racing…’a surprise’. A game that stands head and shoulders above every carting game of recent years, and one – like the titles it pays tribute to – will be remembered and cherished.

The ferocity of the blaze has made authorities fear for the safety of many of the lakeside town's 6,000 residents. About 120 firefighters are still trying to contain the fire in the town center. 'When you see the center of your town . almost destroyed, you'll understand that we're asking ourselves how we . are going to get through this event,' the town's mayor, Colette . Roy-Laroche, said. 'We're told some people are missing but . they may just be out of town or on vacation,' Lieutenant Michel Brunet, . of Quebec police, said. A Facebook page has been set up to help friends and family check on their loved ones, according to the Toronto Star. Devastation: Residents said the explosion looked the the end of the world, as thick smoke and flames filled the sky . Rescue: As the town was evacuated residents watched in horror as the fire spread . Destruction: About 30 buildings in the center of the town, near the border with Maine, have burnt down . About 250 residents have taken shelter in a Red Cross center set up in the town's high school, and more are expected to arrive there later today. 'Many parents are worried because they haven't been able to communicate with a member of their family or an acquaintance,' Ms Roy-Laroche said. Canada's Prime Minister Stephen Harper has sent his sympathy to the stricken town. 'Thoughts & prayers are with those impacted in Lac Megantic. Horrible news,' he said on Twitter. Flames . could be seen from several miles away as the fire spread to several . homes after the 73-car Montreal Maine & Atlantic train, which was . heading towards Maine, derailed. Zeph Kee, who lives about half an hour from Lac-Megantic, told CBC: 'It was total mayhem ... people not finding their kids.' Resident Anne-Julie Hallee, who saw the explosion, said: 'It was like the end of the world.' Another resident, Claude Bedard, said: 'It's terrible. We've never seen anything like it. The Metro store, Dollarama, everything that was there is gone.' Still burning: Flames and smoke pour from one of the wagons hours after the derailment . Locator: The Montreal Maine & Atlantic train derailed about 250km from Montreal . Doused: Water is sprayed on to a burning rail car close to the railway track . Rubble: The remains of a building flattened in the blast can be seen through the smoke . Only 1,000 litres of oil on board the train has been recovered, and firefighters said that all of the 73 cars were on fire, according to a press conference held in the town on Saturday afternoon. A lot of the oil has leaked into a lake and the Chaudiere River, and plumes of thick smoke could be seen from about 10km away, nearly 10 hours after the blast. A 1km section of the town has been cordoned off and boats have been banned from coming close on the river, after flames were allegedly seen in two aqueducts. 'We have a mobile laboratory here to monitor the quality of the air,' Environment Quebec spokesman Christian Blanchette said. 'Firefighters are working hard to extinguish that fire, but it’s burning hard because of the crude oil,' Gergeant Gomez del Prado said,adding that it would take a while for the fire to be contained. 'We also have a spill on the lake and . the river that is concerning us. We have advised the local . municipalities downstream to be careful if they take their water from . the Chaudiere River.' Firefighters . have set up a perimeter around the town as they try to tackle the . blaze, which was caused when four of the cars that were pressurized blew . up. Derailment: Smoke is still filling the streets around where the 73-car freight train derailed . Pollution: Environmental workers are monitoring the plumes of smoke, as well as contamination of a river . 'There are still wagons which we think are pressurized. We're not sure because we can't get close, so we're working on the assumption that all the cars were pressurized and could explode. That's why progress is slow and tough,' local fire chief Denis Lauzon said. The cause of the derailment is not yet known. The railway company's Mr McGonigle, said the middle section of the train had derailed, the Montreal Gazette said. Investigators are headed to the town to begin gathering information and statements from witnesses." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "First confirmed victim of freight train fire .\nAbout 30 buildings destroyed in Lac Megantic .\nForce of blaze preventing rescue workers from checking for survivors .\nOil from train cars is spilling into nearby river ." } ]

Can you see any difference between them? A little, but not too much? Good, that is exactly how it should be. The pictures were taken a week apart — I think you’ll agree that in the second one, I look a little sharper, fresher, more alive. Nothing too revolutionary or extreme, though. In fact, most people have assumed I’ve just had a really lovely, relaxing Christmas break. Which is precisely what I intended. Scroll down for video . Before: Helen, 46, (pictured) went in for the new threadlift treatment at winner of The Apprentice Dr Leah Tottton's clinic in London before the school-run one day . You see, a few weeks ago, before the school-run, I nipped out for a threadlift — known in the cosmetic surgery world as a ‘non-surgical’ or ‘lunchtime’ facelift — at the London clinic of Dr Leah Totton, the 25-year-old winner of 2013’s The Apprentice. It’s said to be the most furtive, discreet and effective facelift of all. My surgeon, Dr Roberto Pizzamiglio, trained Leah, along with hundreds of other medics, in how to perform the Silhouette Soft lift, in which fine threads with tiny cones along the length of them are sewn into the face, beneath the subcutaneous layer of fat, with a needle, then pulled tight, gently lifting sagging skin. As it takes just half-an-hour and there is no recovery time, the procedure, which is available at clinics the length and breadth of the country for around £1,200, could be — and frequently is — performed during a lunch break, leaving colleagues none the wiser. After: Helen, 46, (pictured) underwent the half hour procedure, which has no recovery time, and was thrilled with the results . In fact, if you decided to greet inevitable comments like ‘Gosh, you look well’ and ‘You must tell me which foundation you use’ with a knowing smile, no one need ever know you’d succumbed to a secret moment of vanity. While I’m all for gilding the lily (I never leave home without a good smearing of make-up and regularly have my grey hair highlighted), I never imagined I would go so far as to have foreign bodies inserted in my face in my quest for eternal youth. But I became far more receptive to the idea a few months ago when, aged 46, I was shown an alarmingly jowly profile photograph of myself, taken by my ten-year-old daughter Isobel. I’d not seen myself in profile for some time and struggled with the harsh truth: my face, like the rest of me, was heading south. Dr Roberto Pizzamiglia (left) and Dr Leah Totton (right) performed the threadlift procedure on Helen at The Apprentice winner's clinic in London . Shortly afterwards, while washing up, I caught sight of my reflection in the kitchen window and recoiled in shock, actually believing I’d seen a vision of my mother, who died six years ago aged 82. A more public low-point followed one evening when, on my way home from work, a woman in her 30s stood up to offer me her seat on the Tube. Not so long ago, that act of kindness would have propelled me on to a crash diet, convinced she thought I looked pregnant. But it was so much worse to have to face up to simply looking old. Going under the scalpel was out of the question. Apart from the huge expense and weeks of recovery, as the mother of three children — aged 13, ten and six — I couldn’t justify risking a general anaesthetic unless it was absolutely necessary. Effects of the treatment are meant to last around 18 months, at which point the threads and cones biodegrade and are absorbed into the body . So, the Silhouette Soft threadlift, done using a local anaesthetic, sounded like the perfect solution. Better still, the results promised to be subtle and discreet, so there was no danger of me looking like Jocelyn Wildenstein — infamous as the Bride of Wildenstein after extreme plastic surgery wrecked her face. While threadlifts have for years been the beauty treatment of choice for the rich and famous — Madonna is understood to be among them — who want to rejuvenate without looking like they’ve been through a wind tunnel, what’s new about the Silhouette Soft technique are its ‘bi-directional cones’. With the procedure’s previous incarnation, the cones only pointed downwards, embedding themselves into the facial tissue to keep the thread in place, and at the same time causing inflammation beneath the skin to stimulate production of collagen, the protein that provides scaffolding for the face. The needle and thread are pushed upwards beneath the skin to the exit point near the hairline, the thread was pulled taut at both ends, so that the cones nudge the facial tissues northwards . But these new threads (developed in the U.S. and introduced here last year) are dotted with cones pointing up and down. As well as stimulating collagen production, the upward ones push into facial tissue, making skin tauter and giving more of a lift. Effects are meant to last around 18 months, at which point the threads and cones — which contain polylactic acid, the biologically-compatible substance used in suture threads and orthopaedic pins — biodegrade and are absorbed into the body. And so I made an appointment with Dr Pizzamiglio at Dr Leah’s clinic, in Moorgate, London. The ten local anaesthetic injections into each side of my face were, I was relieved to discover, the worst part of the whole procedure. Red dots were drawn to indicate where the threads would go in and out of my face. Then, as I lay on the bed, covered in sterile paper, I could vaguely feel the surgeon, assisted by Dr Leah, injecting a needle — to which the 30cm thread and cones were attached — into the centre of my cheek. Once both the threads  have been place in one side of the face, the doctor turns to the other side to create the same lift in the second cheek - Helen is pictured here during the procedure . It travelled 5mm from the top layer of skin (the epidermis) through the dermis, the subcutaneous tissue, the collagen and stopped just past the fibroblasts (the skin cells that make connective tissues). The needle and thread were pushed upwards beneath my skin to the exit point near my hairline, which was pricked with another needle to make a hole for the needle and thread to come through. The thread was pulled taut at both ends, so that the downward-pointing cones embedded into the subcutaneous fat and the upward cones nudged the facial tissues northwards. A second thread was inserted in the same way, further up my face, close to my cheekbones, and pulled upwards then downwards, until it was taut and embedded. As with many medical processes there was some blood visible at the end of the process and some had even run into Helen's hair . With both of the threads in place on my right side, the doctor turned to creating the same lift on my left cheek. The whole process took just 30 minutes, though it felt far longer — despite my efforts not to dwell on what was happening. Inevitably, there was some blood and, when the surgeon handed me a mirror, I was taken aback to see some had run into my hair. Back home, the children couldn’t see past the blood, and begged for the gory details. But my husband — a hardened doubter of cosmetic surgery — was astounded. Helen is pictured here after the procedure, her kids were keen to know the gory details, while her husband was astounded by the results . He even compared my new face to a picture that hangs on our landing, in which I’m holding Isobel as a baby ten years ago. I couldn’t have hoped for a lovelier comment. In the days afterwards, I was told to keep the incision points clean, dry and infection-free: showers were out, as was make-up. Also banned were saunas, contact sport and dental surgery, while the tissue around the cones healed. I was also ordered to sleep on my back for five nights — the biggest problem of all. Even without make-up, I could see I looked much better: like a fresher, less exhausted version of myself. And because the reflection staring back at me appeared less tired, I felt like I had more energy. Helen, pictured after the treatment, was thrilled with the results and can see that even without make-up she looks like a 'fresher, less exhausted version' of herself . The following Saturday, I met up with my friend Rachael, who I’ve known since playgroup. I hadn’t told her about my threadlift and her first reaction on seeing me was: ‘Wow, you look great! Sooo well.’ My sister, Louise, an advanced nurse practitioner who administers Botox and fillers, is also thinking about training to do threadlifts, after seeing my results on Skype. ‘It’s knocked a decade off you!’ she said. ‘Yet your face still looks natural — just plumper and less lined.’ That plumping effect should be even more noticeable over the next few months as more collagen is produced, thanks to stimulation from the cones. But will I tell anyone what I’ve had done next time they ask? Probably not. This is my little secret.

A Texas Border Patrol agent has been arrested on suspicion of killing a man he discovered was having an affair with his wife. Adam Garibay, 33, of Corpus Christi, discovered the affair online early Thursday, brutally beat and restrained his wife, then drove more than two hours north to murder Keith Martin, officials said. He then took police on a high speed chase before being run off the road and Tazed into submission. Mr Garibay’s young son witnessed the distraught man restrain his wife, 28, with duct tape and handcuffs before running to a neighbors for help while he sped off, KSAT reported. Mr Garibay discovered the Facebook affair and immediately confronted his wife, demanding to know where Mr Martin, 35, lived, police told KSAT. 'They were having an affair. She got caught,’ Medina County Sheriff Randy Brown told the San Antonio Express. When she resisted, he restrained her with duct tape and handcuffs, forcing her to give them Mr Martin’s Hondo, Texas address, authorities said. ‘He was able to get from her by threat the address of the man,’ Mr Brown told KSAT. The scorned spouse then drove more than 160 miles north to Mr Martin’s Hondo, Texas home to confront him about the affair.

Police told KIII they found her ‘pretty severely beat up… tied up with duct tape around her face, her legs, the tape behind her arms, waist, everywhere.’ It is not clear if Mr Garibay walked in and opened fire, or if there was an altercation before shots were fired, but police have fingered the Border Patrol agent as the main suspect in the killing. KRISTV reported that members of Mr Martin’s family witnessed his murder. Ran off the road: Mr Garibay then took deputies on a high speed chase in this car before being run off the road . Next stop: Mr Garibay was taken to a hospital for unspecified injuries, but his next stop will be Medina County Jail . Police say Mr Martin then led them on a high speed chase for 18 miles before being rammed off the road. He was then shot by deputies with a Taser before finally being taken into custody. ‘They did an outstanding job,’ Mr Brown told the Express, praising the deputies. ‘This guy was still armed.’ It is not clear if Mr Martin was armed with his service weapon or a personal firearm when he was apprehended.

Andy Murray’s match with Tomas Berdych will be won between the lines of the tennis court, although there is no doubt it can be strange for all concerned when a coach switches corners. I experienced this in 2003 in my first match as a coach against Andre Agassi following our eight-year association. I was working with Andy Roddick at Queen’s Club and he won in three sets against Andre. The whole experience gave me a vaguely sick feeling. Andy Murray celebrates his straight sets win over Nick Kyrgios in the quarter-finals . Murray is set to come up against his long-term friend Dani Vallverdu, who now coaches Berdych . The key to this match is whether Murray can maintain the more aggressive style he has been playing. The stats don’t lie and there is a reason Andy has a 4-6 record against the Czech: too often he has tried to beat him relying on his more defensive game and most of the time it has not worked. If I was coaching Andy, I would tell him he needs to keep playing ‘first-strike’ tennis — being aggressive with the first ball that is there to hit. He has to take the ball on if it is anywhere near the centre of the court, and must avoid giving Berdych ‘meatballs’, those more passive plays that give him the chance to belt heavy groundstroke winners. The second serve will be crucial for Andy. He has been averaging 87mph on it here as opposed to 84mph in 2014 — an improvement, but still not enough by the highest standards. Novak Djokovic tends to average around 100mph and Murray needs to get closer to that. Tomas Berdych is Murray's next opponent after he saw off Rafael Nadal 6-2, 6-0, 7-6 in the quarter-finals . Murray, working on his serve in practice on Wednesday, will have to serve well against the big hitting Czech . If the Czech has a weakness, it is that his second serve tends to be the most predictable of the top 10, but there are already signs Vallverdu is doing a good job coaching him. Tomas is picking when to really go for a winner much better. Before he would strike out too soon, especially when out wide, but now he is more intelligent. Another key for Tomas is that, at 29, he has improved his movement around the court significantly. Conditions are going to play a part. If, as expected, it is a cool evening and the ball flies relatively slowly, that favours the greater power of Berdych. But if it is significantly breezy, then Murray’s control is superior in the wind. Put me on the spot and I will say that there will be four tight sets, with the Brit going through to another final. The two-time Grand Slam champion has been in fine form so far in Melbourne, aiming for a fourth final ." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Andy Murray faces Tomas Berdych in Australian Open semis on Thursday .\nThe Czech World No 7 is coached by Andy Murray's friend Dani Vallverdu .\nMurray has a 4-6 head-to-head record against Berdych .\nThe winner will face Novak Djokovic or Stan Wawrinka in the final .\nClick here for more from Australian Open 2015 ." } ]

We're drinking, we're smoking, we're having premarital sex with birth control, before we go to work and sometimes boss around a bunch of men.'

Not impressed: Fox News' Megyn Kelly educated Mike Huckabee on the ways of the modern woman on her show on Wednesday after he said it was 'trashy' that New York women swore in the workplace . Her comments came after Huckabee, who quit his show on Fox News earlier this month, described his shock at hearing women swear in the workplace while he worked in New York. 'In the South, or in the Midwest, there in Iowa, you would not have people who would just throw the F-bomb or use gratuitous profanity in a professional setting,' Huckabee, 59, told host Jan Mickelson. 'In New York, not only do the men do it, but the women... My gosh, this is worse than locker-room talk. As we would say in the South, that's just trashy.' After Politico published an article saying he had been referring to his female colleagues at Fox News, he sought to clarify what he had said. 'I never said anything derogatory about the people at Fox News,' he told radio host Tyler Cralle, who is based in North Carolina, on Wednesday. 'I talked about the overall coarseness of conversation and gratuitous profanity that I hear in places in what I call the bubble zoo like New York, Washington and Hollywood.' Huckabee, the former governor of Arkansas, announced earlier this month he is considering running for president. He is pictured after speaking at the Freedom Summit in Des Moines, Iowa on Saturday . He said it was 'an outright lie' that he was referring to women at Fox. Huckabee, who joined Fox in 2008, quit the network earlier this month as he announced he is thinking of running for president.

The influential Wigan loose forward, who was the logical choice to succeed Kevin Sinfield as captain of the national team, has failed to recover from a quad strain sustained in the Warriors' Grand-Final defeat by St Helens 10 days ago. Former St Helens skipper James Graham will lead the side out at Brisbane's Suncorp Stadium for the first part of Saturday's double-header while Hull loose forward Joe Westerman will take over the number 13 jersey and win his first cap. Wigan loose forward Sean O'Loughlin will miss England's opening Four Nations Series clash with Samoa. 'Sean tried his best and our medical staff tried their best but the Samoa match has come too soon,' McNamara said. 'We thought it was right that we made an early decision but we remain confident he'll be ready for Australia the week after. 'It's a blow because he's our leader and obviously he's a really, really good player. 'But I'm really happy with his replacement. Joe had a great season for Hull FC, a team that didn't make the top eight, and to be a real stand-out for them shows what a quality player he is. England coach Steve McNamara is confident his team will cope without O'Loughlin . 'James will step in as captain for this week and he's a tremendous leader. We saw that with the (Canterbury) Bulldogs towards the back end of the season when he single-handedly more or less led them to the Grand Final. 'He leads by example and gives 100 per cent effort in everything he does. He inspires everyone around him to follow his lead.' Graham, who is set to skipper his club in 2015, took over the captaincy for England's 2010 Four Nations campaign in the southern hemisphere when Adrian Morley was forced to return home due to injury. McNamara has named two other debutants in his starting line-up - Wigan scrum-half Matty Smith and Hull KR hooker Josh Hodgson - while 2014 Man of Steel Daryl Clark is set to make his England bow from the bench. Former St Helens skipper James Graham will lead England against Samoa at Brisbane's Suncorp Stadium . 'There is a slight evolution to the squad this year with some new faces on show,' McNamara said. 'The debutants are exciting and they can prove themselves on the international stage.' Hodgson, who will stay on in Australia at the end of the tour to take up a two-year contract with Canberra Raiders, has been given the number nine jersey but McNamara also expects the Warrington-bound Clark to make an impact. 'Daryl's (the) Man of Steel and has been the best player in the competition this season so there is no doubting his ability,' he said. 'Josh is a tough, tenacious player and I think for this game, his robust start will help us. I think Daryl's undoubted electric speed will also help us when he comes on when the sting goes out of the game.' S Tomkins (New Zealand Warriors); J Charnley (Wigan), K Watkins (Leeds), M Shenton (Castleford), R Hall (Leeds); G Widdop (St George Illawarra), M Smith (Wigan); G Burgess (South Sydney), J Hodgson (Hull KR), J Graham (Canterbury Bulldogs, capt), L Farrell (Wigan), J Tomkins (Wigan), J Westerman (Hull). Replacements: D Clark (Castleford), B Ferres (Huddersfield), T Burgess (South Sydney), C Hill (Warrington). The only surprise is the selection of Joel Tomkins, whose appearance in the Grand Final was only his seventh in rugby league since his return from a three-year stint in the 15-man code, ahead of Super League Dream Team second rower Elliott Whitehead. 'Joel is very experienced and a very good player,' McNamara said. 'He fought his way back into the Wigan team, played in a Grand Final and has been in this group before. He brings a whole lot of leadership and energy into the group. He's a tremendous player to have back with us.' It will be Tomkins' first appearance for three years alongside younger brother Sam, who is one of nine survivors from the team that lost 20-18 to New Zealand in their last match, their World Cup semi-final at Wembley 11 months ago. The Super League-based players have been in Australia for less than a week but McNamara is confident that by Saturday his side will be ready for what could be a tricky opening test. 'We've only had nine days to get ready but we knew that from the outset,' McNamara said. 'The thing with this group is that they are very intelligent players and you generally only have to tell them once or twice and they pick it up. 'We've got some great combinations going. Ideally you would like to test them out in a game situation before the tournament but I'm really confident.' Samoa will make their Four Nations debut under a cloud after three players - Reni Maitua, Tautau Moga and Sauaso Sue - were not considered for selection after it was revealed they are the subject of an NRL Integrity Unit review into an alleged nightclub brawl in Brisbane over the weekend. 'Come game day, they will be past all of that,' McNamara said. 'They will be ready for this game.

But, despite putting up a brave fight, the Glasgow 2014 hosts joined England and Wales in crashing out of the tournament after slumping to a 35-12 defeat. Tough draw: Mark Bennett of Scotland holds off the challenge of Chris Dry of South Africa . Scotland had pushed world champions and four-time Commonwealth champions New Zealand close in Saturday's group-stage meeting but failed to replicate that intensity as they fell three tries behind the Springboks early on. 'We're massively disappointed,' Scotland coach Stevie Gemmell said. 'We made far too many errors against a quality team. 'We didn't learn the lesson from the first half against New Zealand yesterday and the same things happened to us again. 'If you give one of the best teams in the world a 20-point start you will end up with that outcome. 'But I don't think there is a massive gulf between us and the southern-hemisphere teams. We showed against New Zealand what we can do. But we do need to work hard to close the gap further.' Winner: Pama Fou of Australia scores the winning try during their quarter-final against Wales . The Scots found themselves 21-0 down as Cornal Hendricks, Branco du Preez and Seabelo Sentala all crossed over. But Mark Bennett gave his side hope when he pulled a score back just before the break. Expectations rose further when Lee Jones - who scored five tries on the opening day of action - grabbed another at the start of the second half but, when skipper Colin Gregor sent his conversion attempt wide, Scotland's momentum faltered. That allowed South Africa to step up the pressure and Sentala and Cecil Afrika put the seal on their victory with two further touchdowns. There was agony too for Wales in the first last-eight clash of the afternoon. They led Australia 19-7 at half-time but were left sickened after the hooter went when Cam Clark stuck over a last-gasp conversion to seal a 21-19 win and a semi-final slot against the All Blacks. Diving try: Lio Lolo of Samoa is tackled by Philip Burgess of Scotland as he scores a try . And England were also punished with a 15-14 defeat by Samoa. Leading by Marcus Watson's try, they soon found themselves behind as James Rodwell was penalised for his late challenge on Samoa Toloa as he grounded the Pacific Islanders' first score in first-half stoppage time. He was sin-binned and Samoa allowed one last attack before the break. They made the most of it as Toloa ran in another score, while Lio Lolo added a third try early in the second half. Dan Norton pulled one back for the English after running on to his own chip but it was not enough to save their medal hopes, with Samoa now progressing to face South Africa. Rodwell admitted his disappointment but felt his yellow card was harsh. 'It was just the ref's interpretation,' he said. 'Their player was taking his time to put the ball down and I made a challenge on him. The ref said I took him after the whistle had gone. 'We came here for a medal, so to lose like that is annoying.'

But Taylor-Johnson, 47, said that although the film is true to E L James's best-selling book, it may not be as explicit as people might be hoping for. 'The thing that was most difficult was how and where to pepper the sex, and to not make it feel like it was gratuitous,' she said. 'So it had to be a really strong part of the story, and I had to give characterisation to each sex scene, to make them different. Overruled: Director Sam Taylor-Johnson (pictured) said: 'It was beautiful, very impressionistic... Everyone went, \"What the f*** are those jellyfish doing there?''So we had to take them out' 'I didn't want it to be graphically explicit, and I know that's going to be disappointing to some people.' Taylor-Johnson, who is married to British actor Aaron Johnson, 23, added in an interview with The Guardian newspaper: 'It's the build up and titillation of touch and sensuality. So I don't think it goes into the realm of porn.' She explained there were constraints on sexual content because she wanted the film to earn an 'R' rating in the US – meaning it can be viewed by mainstream audiences.

She claims her daughter's grades fell this year and she started to have panic attacks 'from the stress'. She said Jordan was always a good and 'compliant' daughter. She told The Bee: 'I was really, really careful. I wanted her to be safe. In hindsight, in retrospect, I should have looked at things differently. 'She looked up to him. He was in the position of an educator, you don’t . abuse your student. Period. 'She’s still in high school. She still lives . at home. She has a curfew. That’s not OK.'

She told the New York Daily News that she’s seeking justice for her son. ‘Whoever did this to my son needs to turn himself in. I need to find out why he did this to my son.’ Police are still investigating the incident; no arrests have yet been made. One Brooklyn resident, Sean R. Nyffeler, who was riding on the train wrote of the horrific experience on his blog. Demanding answers: Joshua's mother Zena Basin told reporters that she has no idea why someone would do this to her son . Get back: The train conductor told riders 'You don't want to see this!' as they ushered riders out of the car . He said he was sitting in the front . car – the one that pinned Mr Basin – and felt ‘two or three dull thuds . that jostled the entire car.’ Mr . Nyffeler wrote: ‘The conductor… told us all to back up away from the . windows. She kept shouting, “Get back! You don’t want to see this!”’ Though he didn’t mean to look at the gruesome scene, he said he looked before police ushered him out of the station. ‘He was stuck…between the car and the platform from his waist down, facing the train,’ Mr Nyffeler wrote. 'He was moving his arms so I knew he wasn’t dead yet, but as I stumbled up the stairs and onto Bedfore Ave. I also knew there was no coming back from that.' Brooklyn bound: The Bedford Avenue stop is in Williamsburg, a trendy Brooklyn neighbourhood that was known for its Orthodox Jewish community . The New York subway has been a backdrop to several gruesome deaths this year. Only two months ago, an unidentified man’s severed head was found wedged between the train and the platform as the L train pulled up to the 14th Street and Sixth Avenue station. The same day, 22-year-old Brian O’Mara was struck and killed while wandering in the tunnel between the First and Third avenue stops. It was unclear why Mr O’Mara, who worked at a web firm, was on the tracks. The L train runs east from 14th Street and Eighth Avenue in Chelsea, passing through Union Square, East Village, and then entering Brooklyn via Bedford Avenue. It continues out to Canarsie in Brooklyn.

The average Briton now has 26 online accounts, yet uses just five passwords to keep them secure. Remembering a huge number of different passwords is simply impossible for most of us. But using the same password, for instance, across an email account and an online banking account can leave people terrifyingly vulnerable to hackers. New research out on Monday revealed the spiralling number of internet accounts is behind a dramatic rise in online fraud. Fraudsters in the UK illegally traded more than 12 million pieces of personal information online in the first four months of 2012 alone. Figures from credit checkers Experian says online fraud has increased three fold since 2010, when 9.5 million pieces of information were traded illegally. Online accounts cover everything from banking to utility bills to social networks, with 25 to 34-year-olds signing up to an average 40 accounts. The number is set to grow, with nearly one in five people (17%) signing up to six or more new accounts every month. One in four of the 2,000 people quizzed use a single password for the majority of accounts and one in 20 (four per cent) sticking with the same login details for all their accounts. Experian says people are putting themselves further at risk by no longer using many of their accounts - meaning passwords are not changed regularly. Six in 10 adults (66 per cent) admit to having defunct profiles that hold valuable personal and financial information, including social network profiles (26 per cent), email addresses (18 per cent) and shopping accounts (21 per cent). Peter Turner, managing director at Experian Consumer Services, said: ‘The problem is that most people don't realise there is huge market for login credentials - email and password combinations. ‘These outnumber sales of credit card details by nine to one because they give access to a huge amount of other valuable information, such as address books and related accounts. ‘Using a different password for each account will minimise risks, but if password information is stolen from a website, all accounts using the same details will be compromised, and this information can spread among fraudsters rapidly. ‘Changing passwords after a theft can be like closing the stable door after the horse has bolted. Users need to protect themselves with a service like CreditExpert's web monitoring, which will alert them by text or email if details turn up somewhere they shouldn't.’ Two million people said they have been victims of online fraud, leading to debt and refused loans or credit cards." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rise in e-shopping and banking sites forces net users to reuse passwords .\nEasy prey for hackers who want access to banking accounts .\nFraudsters traded 12 million pieces of info in UK ." } ]

Formula One driver Jules Bianchi received urgent medical treatment after the crash but remains in hospital . Formula One chiefs are proposing a speed limit to slow down cars during dangerous situations on the track . Race director Charlie Whiting says it would be best to give teams the ability to cut speed automatically . Whiting briefs the media after presenting a report on French driver Bianchi's accident to FIA on Friday . Whiting said Bianchi had slowed down in his Marussia car before skidding off the wet circuit in Suzuka and ploughing into a recovering tractor. But not all drivers had slowed down during a double yellow-flag situation and many did not reduce their speed. Whiting would not say at what speed Bianchi was traveling when he lost control. 'Jules slowed down,' Whiting said, adding that it was a 'matter of degrees' and that more data will have to be studied before his speed could be given with certainty. With international federation president Jean Todt sitting next to him, Whiting showed previously unreleased footage of Bianchi's crash, which shows him driving into the tractor as the marshals had lifted a green flag to signal all clear. Philippe Bianchi, brother Tom, mother Christine, and sister Melanie arrive at the Mie University Hospital . The Bianchi family are pictured outside the hospital. Melanie (left) and Tom (right) arrived there on Thursday . 'Nothing could have been done better,' Whiting said of the reaction to Bianchi's accident. Whiting said he had asked Suzuka organisers to start the race earlier because of heavy rain and fading light but was turned down. He added the time of the start was not a factor in the accident. The planned speed control would enhance a system already available and would, in some situations, replace the safety car, which was not on the track during Bianchi's accident. 'It's probably better to take the decision to slow down away from the drivers,' Whiting said. The aim was to build a 'way to control speed with complete certainty and clarity, with the same effect as a safety car.'

Wenger said his first instinct upon learning Radamel Falcao had joined United was to sign Welbeck on loan, with a view to buying him next summer. He muddied the waters by suggesting Welbeck had initially only been available on loan, but it is understood a temporary switch was his preferred option. Wenger held off competition from Tottenham to land the 23-year-old, pulling off a coup in the wake of France striker Olivier Giroud's foot injury and Falcao's loan to United from Monaco. Wenger conducted his business from Italy — a decision he defended by claiming the deal never would have happened if he was in London. 'If I had not travelled that day, Welbeck would not be here,' he said. 'I will tell you that story one day but that's the truth. We are in 2014 and you can always be in touch with everybody even when you travel. The advantage of that day was I had to get up at 6am and I was available the whole day.' When asked if Sir Alex Ferguson would have sanctioned such a deal to a rival, Wenger said: 'You should ask him. I met him by coincidence on Wednesday and I would like to keep that conversation to myself!' Arsenal are sweating on Aaron Ramsey's fitness after he injured an ankle for Wales against Andorra.

Defence Minister Andrew Murrison said a . football match was 'a no-brainer in terms of an event that is going to . reach part of the community that perhaps might not get terribly . entrenched into this'. When World War One began in July 1914, many troops were excited to be sent to the front line. People were optimistic that the war would be over promptly and they would be back by Christmas. But within a few months the death toll had reached one million before a single trench had even been dug. The fighting soon ground to a stalemate and the reality of war sunk in. Major JV Bates from the Royal Army Medical Corps wrote: '...the real horror of it came home to us, and if everyone else was as frightened as I was, then we were all petrified.' The fighting lasted for four years, with 16 million troops and civilians losing their lives - one million of them British. Prime Minister David Cameron raised the possibility last year of football matches forming part of an extended series of events to mark the centenaries of key moments during the First World War. Speaking to The Guardian, Dr Murrison indicated that it was an idea was being pursued although planning was still at an early stage and 'discussions are ongoing'. He said: 'I think football has a particular part to play because of the totemic significance of the Christmas truce in 1914. 'We have been in touch with Football Association and the National Children's Football (Alliance) to see how this can be done. 'I know they are enthused and have already clocked the fact that other countries are thinking along similar lines.' He added: 'It is clear the Christmas truce is going to be commemorated in a very significant way. It had no real relevance to the outcome of the war but at that deeply, intensely, personal level, it is something that people really do latch on to.' Remembered: Troops at Dale Barracks in Chester marked a previous anniversary of the Christmas Day truce by playing a football match against German soldiers . The Christmas truce of 1914 was a spontaneous and unofficial laying down of arms across various sectors of the entrenched Western Front. In some areas, soldiers on both sides merely held their fire throughout the day. But in some sectors, troops climbed out of their trenches and made contact with their enemies, some reportedly exchanging gifts and handshakes and playing football. More practically, soldiers used the time to reclaim their dead from no man's land and bury them behind the lines. In the evening, soldiers of both sides sang carols and hostilities were only resumed when fresh battalions were moved into the line, breaking the bonds between the enemies which formed during that day. The Christmas Day truce of 1914 was never repeated during the rest of World War One.
