Computer scientists from have found that girls asked to create a computer game tend to write more complex programs than boys do. The girls also learned more about coding as they were writing the games. Girls were found to write more sophisticated games and use more event triggers than boys did in the study . The findings from the University of Sussex come amid concerns that too few computer science graduates are female. In the UK just 17 per cent of those to graduate in the UK with a computer science degree were women. Researchers believe that despite being more gifted programmers, many teenage girls are put off computers by the portrayal of programmers as nerdy boys on television and film. Dr Judith Good, from the school of engineering and informatics at the University of Sussex, said it may be possible to find new ways of motivating girls to take part in the subject. Teenage boys are often stereotyped as the typical computer game players, but new research suggests that girls might actually be better at making the games in the first place . She said: 'Given that girls’ attainment in literacy is higher than boys across all stages of the primary and secondary school curriculum, it may be that explicitly tying programming to an activity that they tend to do well in leads to a commensurate gain in their programming skills. 'In other words, if girls’ stories are typically more complex and well developed, then when creating stories in games, their stories will also require more sophisticated program in order for their games to work.' In the study, which is to be published in the journal Computers & Education, pupils aged between 12 and 13 years old spent eight weeks creating their own three dimensional role playing games. Boys can develop a rather unhealthy relationship with their games console, choosing to spend more time with it than they do in the real world in some cases . These were built on simple computer code, called scripts, that describe what happens if a particular situation arises. The researchers developed a new programming language called Flip, which allows users to create scripts by connecting graphical blocks together. Different events were used by pupils to trigger their scripts, such as when a character is killed in the game. The girls tended to use seven different triggers, almost twice as many as the boys. They were much more successful at creating complex scripts. Boys nearly always chose to trigger their scripts on when a character says something, which is the first and easiest trigger to learn. Films that portray computer programmers as geeky boys, like in the 1983 movie Wargames starring Matthew Broaderick and Ally Sheedy, are blamed for turning many girls off studying computer science at university . In the battle of the sexes, boys have always been thought to perform better in subjects like maths and science. But a review of 308 studies involving more than 1.1 million children has now completely overturned this long-held stereotype. The study, which looked at data from 1914 to 2011, suggests that girls do better in school than boys – and have been doing so for at least 100 years. Not only that, but the research claims that girls do better at all ages, in all subjects and all over the world. According to the data, compiled by the University of New Brunswick in Canada, girls have been outperforming boys throughout their academic careers, from infant school to secondary school. The differences are the biggest in language and the smallest in maths, but even in these subjects girls get better grades on average, researchers said. The degree of gender difference in grades increased from infant school, but decreased between secondary school and college. The research suggests stereotypes that portray computer gaming and programming as the preserve of young males are inaccurate and that girls are perhaps better suited to building the games. Indeed recent research in the US has shown that around half of America's 190 million gamers are now women. Dr Good added: 'Our results were encouraging from a gender perspective. 'A substantial body of research exists which focuses on finding ways to motivate girls to engage with programming but few directly compare relative performance across genders. 'In our study, we found that more girls created more scripts which were both more varied in terms of the range of actions they used, and more complex in terms of the computational constructs they contained. 'The fact that girls appear to be using more complex triggers is encouraging from a computational perspective. 'Furthermore, it suggests that girls are not relying solely on conversations to drive the plots of their stories, but are instead using events such as moving between areas or acquiring items as significant plot events.' Not many female faces: Most of the computer games fans who queue up to buy the latest releases like Destiny tend to be young men and teenage boys yet girls may be better at writing the games ." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Study by Sussex University shows girls were better at programming .\nTeenage girls wrote better programs to create more complex games .\nJust 17 per cent of computer science graduates in the UK are women .\nResearchers believe film portrayals of nerdy computer geeks puts girls off .\nGirls should be taught computing to take advantage of their literacy skills ." } ]

Passing above the planet at around 4,200mph it could cover the 10,500 miles from London to Sydney in two and a half hours. Among the company's other long-term goals are space cruise ships which could take people away from Earth for longer stretches. Speaking at an event in London yesterday, commercial director Stephen Attenborough said they could serve as orbital hotels, or allow tourists to travel to the Moon and back. Force India co-owner Michiel Mol and Dutch airline KLM have also teamed up to produce a similar jet which could begin flying next year. Tickets will initially cost £60,000 but the pair say commercial space flight could be available within 15-20 years. The spaceship is flown into the air while strapped into the carrying craft White Knight before detaching itself to launch into space . The company says the first space tourism flight, taken by Richard Branson and his family, will take place next year . Mol's first generation spaceship, the XCOR Aerospace Lynx, will travel at 2,200 mph and he predicts it will be capable of flying four times day and doing 5,000 flights with one engine. So far Virgin's SS2 aircraft has only managed to exit the stratosphere, the second lowest part of Earth's atmosphere, though the company says it will launch its first flight next year. Its manned spacecraft became the highest commercial winged vehicle to ever fly and used its shuttlecock-inspired 'feather system' to safely re-entering the Earth's atmosphere. The company has already collected $80million (£50m) in deposits from 640 wealthy individuals interested in being among the first into space. The Xerus was the model superseded by the Lynx, a similar aircraft which the Force India boss hopes will provide two-hour London to Sydney trips by 2014 . However they will have to queue behind Sir Richard himself as he and his family are due to take the first trip. The flight took place over the Mojave desert and was piloted by Mark Stucky and Clint Nichols and lasted approximately an hour.

Singer Jill Scott has come in for flak from her fans after repeatedly tweeting her support for Bill Cosby after a series of rape allegations made against him resurfaced in recent weeks . Last week one of Scott’s followers tweeted her a link to a petition asking Temple to end its relationship with Cosby - but she instead tweeted her support for the comedian . Last week one of Scott’s followers tweeted her a link to a petition asking Temple to end its relationship with Cosby. Instead of supporting the cause, Scott tweeted her support for the 77-year-old comedian and actor. ‘So they've proven the alleged allegations? I didn't know. Will they also be giving him back the millions he's donated?’ she tweeted. The singer soon started receiving a number of tweets from followers expressing their disappointment and even anger with her stance. ‘Disappointed in Jill. Did u need an indictment to believe mike Browns family?,' tweeted one fan. On November 30, another follower tweeted that Scott wasn’t respecting her platform as an influential performer regarding her tweets in support of Cosby. The Philadelphia-born singer received an honorary doctorate from Temple University in May and was photographed receiving it from Cosby . Scott has repeatedly stood by her support for Cosby in discussions on Twitter with followers who have taken her to task . 'It’s hearsay in a court of law. Tis all. Trust. If this is true, he’ll face his due just like everyone,' she said in one tweet. 'For a world traveled, educated, woman AND mother to take up for a man who has abused women in his past is disheartening,' hit back one person . Scott then posted another tweet saying, 'I’m respecting a man who has done more for the image of Brown people that almost anyone EVER. From Fat Albert to the Huxtables.' The singer continued to defend Cosby as recently as yesterday whens he accused the media and society of 'attempting to destroy his magnificent legacy'. After multiple Twitter exchanges defending Cosby, Scott tweeted about rape calling it a cowardly crime and advising her followers to 'GET EVIDENCE' if raped. 'Rape is a despicable, cowardly crime. If you’ve been raped- plz do NOT shower, go to police IMMEDIATELY, have a rap (sic) kit done. GET EVIDENCE.'

On CNN on Monday night, Janice Dickinson described in graphic detail how Bill Cosby allegedly drugged then raped her in a Lake Tahoe hotel room more than 30 years ago. The former supermodel, 59, broke down in tears during the live television interview and accused Cosby of using the offer of career advancement to lure her to a hotel room where he drugged her and raped her while she was unconscious. Dickinson said she recalled waking up in extreme pain with Cosby's semen staining her clothes, after which she fled. Cosby's resignation from Temple was also announced on Monday, he had been a trustee since 1982 and was a frequent visitor, commencement speaker and attendee at basketball games. In the statement, first obtained by The Philadelphia Inquirer, Cosby said: 'I have always been proud of my association with Temple University. Speech: The 77-year-old comedian and actor, who had been a trustee since 1982, was a frequent visitor, commencement speaker (pictured) and attendee at basketball games at the Philadelphia-based institution . 'I have always wanted to do what would be in the best interests of the university and its students. As a result, I have tendered my resignation from the Temple University Board of Trustees.' Patrick O’Connor, chairman of the board of trustees, said that Cosby does not want to be a distraction to his colleagues. He added that the board 'accepts Dr. Cosby's resignation from the board and thanks him for his service to the university'. The resignation is believed to be effective immediately. Mr O'Connor had defended Cosby in a 2005 civil suit filed by a former Temple basketball employee, who accused the star of molesting her at his suburban Philadelphia mansion a year earlier. Cosby, who has been with his wife Camille for the last 51 years, and the woman later settled for undisclosed terms. But since the lawsuit was filed, at least 17 other alleged victims have come forward to claim that the star drugged and sexually abused them in decades past. Chatting: Cosby is pictured stopping to talk with a Temple cheerleader as he makes his way to the sidelines . The comedian has strongly denied any wrongdoing and has never been criminally charged. His lawyer has previously called the allegations 'unsubstantiated' and 'discredited'. Cosby's decision to resign from the board of trustees reportedly follows a series of high-level talks by university leaders, many of whom had spoken in support of the Temple graduate. It also follows many other universities' decisions to sever ties with the star, who has donated millions of dollars to numerous academic institutions, and has close links to many others. The University of Massachusetts Amherst, where Cosby got his graduate degrees, recently said it had asked him to step down as honorary co-chairman of its $300 million fundraising campaign. And the Berklee College of Music will reportedly no longer award a scholarship in his name. At Temple, an online petition urging the university to cut ties with Cosby had garnered more than 1,000 signatures by Monday afternoon." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "The singer has come in for flak from her fans after repeatedly tweeting her support for Bill Cosby over the past week .\nEarlier this year the Philadelphia-born singer received an honorary doctorate from Temple University and was photographed receiving it from Cosby .\n'So they've proven the alleged allegations?

Jonathan Mills said daughter Lindsay Mills was devastated by Mr Snowden's abandonment and is still trying to piece her life back together. The concerned father recently told the Guardian his daughter, 28, was 'left to fend for herself' by Mr Snowden and 'trying to make sense of everything and come up with a plan for herself.' Forgiven: Jonathan Mills, the father of the NSA leaker's girlfriend Lindsay Mills, says his daughter was left penniless and to 'fend for herself' heartbroken: Mr Mills said his daughter is still trying to make sense of all that has happened . Stunning: Lindsay Mills, 28, took to her blog on Monday to detail her heartbreak over being suddenly left by Mr Snowden . Jonathan Mills said Lindsay had not spoken to the wanted man since he left and that neither he nor his daughter had anything to do with his series of NSA spy program leaks. 'He said I'm just going on a trip for business for a couple of weeks and I'll be coming back. She heard what had happened on the news,' the father recalled. 'She was basically left to fend for herself.' The polar opposites had dated for five years after meeting through an online dating site, he added. They were planning a future together. 'Up until she heard that he was in Hong Kong she was in the back of her mind planning marriage and a life together,' said Jonathan Mills. He further described the differences between the two. Lindsay is 'very artistic, free spirit and open - the opposite of me and Mr Snowden.' Jonathan Mills said in a previous interview that he has already forgiven Mr Snowden for . putting his family through hell - even though his daughter faced arrest . and a possible prison sentence in the plot's early days. She had previously written on her blog about how she was ‘adrift’ at losing Mr Snowden, who she described as her ‘mystery man’. He is currently living in Russia after being granted asylum by president Vladimir Putin. Family members have said in the past that Lindsay was with friends on the West Coast, though she could still be in Hawaii. Tiny dancer: Lindsay Mills has posted numerous photos and videos on her personal blog of herself pole dancing . Devastated: 'My world has opened and closed all at once. Leaving me lost at sea without a compass,' Lindsay Mills writes about being suddenly left by her 'mystery man' Jonathan said in the previous interview: 'I've met Ed. He's very nice, shy reserved. They've been dating four or five years.’ Asked if he was surprised at what Snowden did, he added 'it wasn't out of character. He's always had strong convictions of right and wrong so it kind of makes sense, but it was a shock.' He was not even angry that he was being put in this position, saying ‘alright, I understand.' He said that he did not know if his own views or those of his daughter - who dislikes the surveillance state - had any influence on Snowden. Earlier, a blonde woman in her 50s thought to be Jonathan’s girlfriend went into his house and claimed to be the best friend of Lindsay’s’ mother Martha. She said: ‘He (Jonathan) has nothing to do with it and she (Lindsay) has nothing to do with it’. Keeping a secret: Snowden says he never told his girlfriend about his life-altering plans, saying he left weeks ago saying only that he had to travel for business . Since Mr Snowden leaked the data, he has effectively brought an end to any future he hoped to have with his girlfriend. The pair seemed blissfully happy even though they appear to be totally different people. She is an extrovert who enjoys walking around naked whenever she can, spends her Sunday evenings in circus classes and surrounds herself with bohemian eccentrics. The title of her blog reads: ‘Adventures of a world-traveling, pole-dancing super hero.' Mr Snowden, by contrast, is a shy computer geek from a suburban family who likes to spend Sundays at football games and needed to be coaxed out of his shell to even do karaoke. In the days after the scandal broke, she took to her blog - where she has posted dozens of photos of herself semi-naked  - to tell of her heartbreak. 'My world has opened and closed all at once. Leaving me lost at sea without a compass,' she wrote. 'As I type this on my tear-streaked keyboard I’m reflecting on all the faces that have graced my path. 'The ones I laughed with. The ones I’ve held. The one I’ve grown to love the most. And the ones I never got to bid adieu. Better times: Lindsay Mills seen here with Ed Snowden before he suddenly took off for Hong Kong after leaking confidential information . ‘But sometimes life doesn’t afford proper goodbyes.' It was an awful turn of events for Ms Mills, who had lived with Mr Snowden since at least 2009 when they were in Japan together. In 2012, he whisked her 8,000 miles from their home south of Baltimore, Maryland to Hong Kong where family friends thought they got married because it was a 'special place' for them. The NSA leaker curiously fled to a luxury hotel Hong Kong just as the revelations were beginning to be made public, after he decided to release the secret documents about the NSA's surveillance programs. He never told his heartbroken girlfriend about his plan - saying only that he needed to leave for a few weeks and offering a vague explanation. When he revealed his identity in the Guardian he said he expected he might never see his family again.

Fewer than one in three drivers say they are happy with the state of the roads - the lowest level since surveys began in 2008 - and the government’s poor record on repairs is to blame for the abysmal ratings, a damning report by MP watchdogs concludes today. It condemns as ‘ludicrous’ the Department for Transport’s patch-and-mend ‘piecemeal’ funding. They say this is making it difficult to maintain England’s road network cost-effectively and is leaving millions of drivers frustrated. The government’s poor record on repairs is to blame for the abysmal driver satisfaction ratings. File picture . Compensation pay-outs for damages caused by poor road conditions cost £31.6million last year alone. They condemned the decades of ‘unpredictable and fluctuating budgets’ for road maintenance and said ministers should realise that with potholes costing £52 to fill in – rising to £70 in London - ‘prevention is better than cure’. But they also attack local councils and the Highways Agency for not even knowing where their drains are. The AA said motorists were paying the price of such ignorance with ‘pools, ponds and puddles that blight UK roads’ because of poor drainage maintenance by highways authorities. Committee chairman Margaret Hodge blasted the Department for Transport . The powerful House of Commons Public Accounts Committee (PAC) says the Department for Transport (DfT) had slashed the roads maintenance budget, only to have to make repeated emergency injections of cash to deal with fall-out from floods and other problems. The report says that since maintenance budgets were cut by £1.2billion over four years from April 2011, the committee said the DfT has had to provide extra funding on nine occasions, totalling £1.1billion. Committee chairman Margaret Hodge said: ‘The department’s piecemeal and stop-go approach to funding for road maintenance in recent decades has made it difficult for highways authorities to maintain roads cost-effectively. ‘There has been too much reactive work in response to flooding and other events and not enough focus on preventative work that is less expensive in the long term.’ She said: ‘Public satisfaction with the condition of our roads is at the lowest level since the surveying of this began in 2008. ‘In the last survey only 30 per cent of the public were satisfied with the condition of the roads and the speed and quality of repairs.’ Mrs Hodge said: ‘The Department’s unpredictable and fluctuating budgets for road maintenance over decades have put value for money at risk. ‘It seems ludicrous that in 2010 the Department cut road maintenance budgets by £1.2billion over the four years from April 2011, but then it has intermittently given £1.1billion additional funding on nine separate occasions for various reasons, including in response to flooding or winter damage to the roads.’ The greatest problems are in London and the South East, according to the Department for Transport. Mrs Hodge said: ‘The Department must see that prevention is better than cure. It costs £52 to fill in a pothole, or £70 in London, yet it costs over £30million to pay and process compensation claims from road users for damages arising from poor road conditions.’ MPs cited experts at Infrastructure UK who say savings of up to 20 per cent are achievable when there is ‘certainty of funding.’ The Highways Agency, which is an executive agency of the Department, is responsible for maintaining the strategic road network. File pictures . Mrs Hodge said: ‘Whilst we understand the unpredictable nature of winter weather, too much road maintenance is inefficient because it is reactive and unplanned. ‘Concentrating activity in the winter months is inefficient and costly. Some local highway authorities are far too reactive to events, rather than anticipating, predicting and preventing disrepair.’ She noted: ‘Better information, better planning of funding and a pro-active stance on maintenance are what the Department must promote to have a chance of pleasing unhappy road users.’ The Public Accounts Committee report says the Department for Transport and the Highways Agency are making some progress in improving the way in which road maintenance is carried out ‘but more needs to be done.’ It notes: ‘Public satisfaction with the condition of our roads is at the lowest level since the survey assessing confidence began.’ The Highways Agency, which is an executive agency of the Department, is responsible for maintaining the strategic road network spanning 4,400 miles including almost all of England’s motorways and its most important ‘A’ roads. The remaining 183,000 miles of local roads are maintained by 152 local highway authorities. Public spending on maintaining England’s roads in 2012-13 was £4billion. Astonished that the Agency holds no information on 70per cent of its drainage systems, it said: ‘A good understanding of the state of the roads is absolutely essential for planning cost-effective preventative maintenance’. AA president Edmund King said its own surveys showed that while its members are relatively satisfied with the state of motorways and trunk roads, one in five say local roads are ‘terrible’. He said: ‘The Public Accounts Committee reflects this public anger.’ ‘It puts pressure on central government to work more closely with local government to carry out the basics. Effective and regular road maintenance that gives the taxpayer value for money and does the job.’ He added: ‘Central government’s stop-start funding over many years has simply patched up the UK’s roads.’ Lack of ring-fencing of local authority funds for road maintenance has added to this ‘sorry state’." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Fewer than one in three drivers happy with the state of UK roads .\nCompensation pay-outs for damages caused by poor road conditions cost £31.6million last year ." } ]

And now the Royal Navy has arrived in London to show off the weapons it hopes it never has to use at the London Olympics. HMS Ocean - the largest in the Navy - slipped up the Thames on Friday, past the tidal barriers, and up towards Greenwich to check out the berth, where it will monitor and protect London during the Olympics this summer.

The Carrier HMS Ocean takes up her position in the Thames during security rehearsals for the Olympics back in May . Test run: The exercise is aimed at testing military capabilities to ensure operational readiness before the start of the Olympic Games . The show of strength came as Defence . Secretary Philip Hammond said today he was prepared to to give the order . to shoot down a hijacked airliner if the Olympics were threatened by a . 9/11-style attack. Hammond told the . Evening Standard: 'The decision to engage would be made at the highest . levels of government.' Asked if he was personally willing to . give the order to destroy a rogue aircraft, he . said: 'Of course ... I’m certainly prepared to make decisions.' Mr Hammond added that Londoners  and visitors 'should be . reassured by the military presence - there is no risk from the . equipment. It’s defensive in nature and pointing skywards.' The amphibious assault ship is being positioned in Greenwich to provide extra security for the London Olympics . HMS Ocean was commissioned in September 1998 at her home port Devonport, Plymouth, after being built by Kvaerner Govan Ltd on the Clyde and fitted out by VSEL at Barrow-in-Furness. She is the sole member of her class in the Royal Navy, designed to support amphibious landing operations and to support the staff of Commander UK Amphibious Force and Commander UK Landing Force. The ship carries a crew of 255, an aircrew of 206 and 480 Royal . Marine Commandos. An additional 320 marines could be accommodated in a . short-term emergency. HMS Ocean is capable of transporting and . sustaining an embarked military force of up to 800 people equipped with . artillery, vehicles and stores. She has capacity for 40 . vehicles but is not designed to land heavy tanks. There are four LCVP . Mk5 vehicle/personnel landing craft on davits. The ship has full facilities for 12 EH101 Merlin and six Lynx . helicopters, plus landing and refuelling facilities for Chinook . helicopters. Twenty Sea Harriers could be carried but not supported. The . flight deck is 170m long and 32.6m wide, with two aircraft lifts. Its weapon systems include four Oerlikon/BAE twin 30mm guns together with . three Raytheon/General Dynamics Phalanx Mk15 close-in weapon systems. Questioned how he would deal with a hijacked airliner full of passengers, . he said: 'We rehearse these things, we train for them. 'All the ministers involved are fully versed in the processes they have to go through, the judgments they have to make. 'I’m not going to spell out precisely . who is in the loop and who is not, but there are a number of ministers . who are involved in the air defence arrangements. The decision to engage . would be made at the highest levels of government.' Mr . Hammond, who was taken on board HMS Oceans by a landing craft, said of . the security arrangements: 'I don’t think it’s over the top. Every . Olympic Games in recent times has had a significant military component . to its security plan.' Arrangements for security has been ongoing for the last few days, with HMS Ocean now making its debut appearance. The ship will remain in Greenwich throughout the summer games. The warship, which has the motto . 'Boldly Faithfully Happily', will have quite an army on board - 300 . military personnel will base themselves on the ship, while eight Lynx . helicopters with sniper teams onboard will be ready to lift off at a . moment's notice. It is part of huge military . protection for the city, with Typhoon jets stationed at RAF Northolt, . and ground-to-air Rapier missiles dotted on rooftops at six sites across . the city. Defence Secretary Phillip Hammond . said: 'Whilst there is no specific threat to the Games, we have to be . ready to assist in delivering a safe and secure Olympics for all to . enjoy.' Rapier surface-to-air missiles have . also been showcased at Blackheath Army Cadet Centre, in south east . London, as part of the massive 2012 security test on land, sea and in . the air. Weymouth and Portland in Dorset will . play host to the sailing where the Albion-class amphibious assault . warship HMS Bulwark will play a key role in protecting the events. Colonel . Jon Campbell, commander of the Joint Ground Based Air Defence, said: . 'We have done as much as we can to allay people's fears. 'The . Rapier system has a world-class radar on it and is particularly good at . picking up low and slow-moving objects in the sky. It means we're able . to get the very best picture of what is happening in the skies of . London.' Air Vice Marshall . Stuart Atha added: 'We want the focus to be on Usain Bolt this summer . and not us. We're very proud to be part of this plan to deliver a safe . and secure Olympics.' The Lexington Building in Tower Hamlets . and the Fred Wigg Tower in Waltham Forest, both in east London, have . been identified as potential sites for the High Velocity Missiles. Members of the public watch as the HMS Ocean passes Greenwich Naval College . Rapier missiles would be positioned on Blackheath Common and in Oxleas Wood, both in south east London, and at William Girling Reservoir Chain in Enfield and Barn Hill at Netherhouse Farm in Epping Forest, both in north London, should the Air Security Plan be approved by the Government. Col Campbell said the sites had been chosen to avoid having weapons inside the Olympic Park. He said: 'We're trying to de-militarise . this and let the sport do the talking. The Lexington Building is the . best available location away from the Olympic Park.' Heading to England: The HMS Ocean earlier today, out at sea, making its way to the Thames . Ready and waiting: The Typhoon jets line up on the tarmac at RAF Northolt, west London, ahead of a nine-day military exercise to test security for the Olympic Games . What the...? A man walks past a Rapier short range air defence system at Blackheath, London, ahead of the exercises . We got your back: Surface-to-air missiles at the army cadet base in Blackheath, southeast London . The Rapier surface-to-air missile has the power to take down a Boeing 747 full of passengers if needed to protect a stadium full of 80,000 Olympic spectators in a terrorism nightmare scenario. The British military has insisted that the missiles - with a range of up to five miles - could be deployed as the last line of defence. Experts say the likelihood that they will be fired is slim to none. Downing an aircraft would still cause debris to rain from the sky, high casualties and fires. Ready to roll: Royal Marine commandos in rigid inflatables, from the Royal Navy flagship HMS Bulwark, take part in a security exercise off Weymouth and Portland . When you launch a Rapier missile and . shoot down an aircraft, it's not like the whole thing vanishes. It's 100 . tons of metal, scraps, and other stuff that is coming down,' said Jan . Wind, a retired Dutch Navy captain who is director of the Hague-based . Wiser Consultancy. 'If a Rapier is used, the damage . could be just about the same as the intentions of the terrorist - only . on another spot. The goal of the terrorists will be met in a certain . sense,' Wind said. It's rare for the British military to . publicise the location of its weapons, but the military says it hopes . that any potential attacks will be deterred by showing the missile . strength and other defense assets such as Typhoon fighter jets. Ground-to-air missiles have been a . fixture of Olympic games and large VIP events in the post-9/11 world, . but London's missiles have sparked outrage among residents of an . apartment block who learned that the Rapiers might be stationed on their . roof. They say the missiles are creating a . climate of fear - which security experts say is exactly the point. That's because the systems are more valuable as deterrents than as . deployed weapons, Mr Wind said. 'The British army and air force don't . do all this to really shoot down a terrorist aircraft, they do it to . display their determination to do so, which will hopefully prevent the . terrorists from attacking,' Mr Wind said. 'If you know that there are 500 policeman outside the jewellery store, you will not go there and try to rob the store.'

But if that was her intention, it was fatally undermined by the fact that she was pictured sitting on a chair made from a lifelike mannequin of a scantily clad black woman lying on her back with her legs in the air. Worse, the pictures appeared online on Martin Luther King Day, on which millions of Americans commemorate the achievements of the man who did so much to promote black rights. After being accused of racism, socialite Dasha Zhukova has now been forced to apologise. The darling of the celebrity circuit — who owns her own art gallery in Moscow — insisted the artwork was, in fact, a protest against prejudice. This image of socialite Dasha Zhukova sitting on a chair made from a lifelike mannequin of a black woman lying on back with her legs in the was published on Martin Luther King Day. The chair is based on an earlier work by British artist Allen Jones in 1969 . The chair, designed by a Norwegian artist Bjarne Melgaard, was ‘an art work intended specifically as a commentary on gender and racial politics’, she claimed. Her somewhat self-serving explanation is not unlike that offered by the man on whose erotic furniture Melgaard based his chair. It was in 1969 that British artist Allen Jones, a friend and contemporary of David Hockney at the Royal College of Art, designed a set of sculptures — a hat-stand, table and chair — all incorporating fibreglass models of submissive women (although they were white, not black) in skimpy leather outfits. The sculptures were cast in fibreglass by a company that produced mannequins for shop windows at a cost of £1,500 each. Their leather clothing was made by the same firm that supplied the skin-tight cat-suits worn by Diana Rigg as Emma Peel in the TV Series The Avengers. They caused a storm of protest when they were first exhibited in 1970. Feminists, not surprisingly, took great exception to the way they objectified women, turning them into nothing more than a piece of furniture, something on which men could hang their hats or put their pint glass. Fantasising about women as furniture is known to psychologists as forniphilia. The radical feminist magazine Spare Rib suggested Jones must be terrified of women and have a ‘castration complex’. When the sculptures were later exhibited at the Institute of Contemporary Art in London, stink bombs and smoke bombs were thrown at them. The original: Allen Jones created 'Woman As An Armchair' in 1969. It was exhibited at the Institute of Contemporary Art in London and at the Tate . ‘There was an incredible furore on the Mall,’ Jones later recalled. The Guardian newspaper suggested he should be banned from exhibiting. ‘It was tough stuff and I wasn’t expecting it.’ Some years later, when ‘Woman As An Armchair’ was shown at the Tate, it was attacked with paint-stripper that shrivelled the skin on the mannequin’s face. It has since been restored. The attackers were never caught but as it took place on International Women’s Day, it was assumed feminists were behind it. Like Dasha Zukova, Jones claimed the art never set out to be offensive — and was protesting against sexism, not revelling in it. His principal aim, he says, was to be iconoclastic. With sculpture as an art form having gone out of fashion by the Sixties, Jones wanted to revive it, but by using industrial materials. ‘My idea was to offend canons of art at the time.’ Yet he has admitted being motivated by other, somewhat less lofty, impulses than artistic radicalism. Part of the inspiration came from the sight of scantily clad women walking round London in mini-skirts and hot-pants. Jones says: ‘I was living in Chelsea and I had an interest in the female figure and the sexual charge that comes from it. Every Saturday on the King’s Road you saw that skirts were shorter, the body was being displayed in some new way. The following week someone would up the ante.’ Six editions of three pieces of 'furniture' were produced and an entire set was bought by the German playboy Gunter Sachs . Those visions were to fuel his artistic . imagination, producing not only his women as furniture, but striking . images of seemingly endless legs wearing stilettoes. Born in Southampton and brought up in London, Jones moved to New York after being expelled from art college for ‘excessive independence’. During the Sixties, his work became more and more sexually explicit, until his friend David Hockney observed that one of his paintings looked like an illustration to a fetishist magazine. Jones, rather than feeling chastened, began collecting such magazines and his art became ever more focused on sex: women with whips, women in bondage wear, women with painted male genitalia superimposed across their torsos. But he became frustrated that the curves of his fantasy women could not be adequately expressed on a flat canvas. So he decided to turn to sculpture, using modern, industrial materials rather than traditional clay or metal. His wife, Janet posed happily for a magazine alongside the table and hat-stand, kneeling topless on a chair, wearing stockings and a corset, looking disturbingly like one of her husband’s sculptures. Artist Allen Jones, pictured aged 32 with part of the 'woman table' in 1969, claims the artworks were a protest against sexism . Although never as famous as his . contemporaries, Hockney, Roy Lichtenstein or Andy Warhol, Jones was at . the forefront of the British Pop Art movement. His furniture and the . furore it provoked acted as a career-boost, raising his public profile. It certainly brought him financial success. An entire set of the furniture — six editions of each set of three were produced — was snapped up by Gunter Sachs, the German playboy who was married to actress Brigitte Bardot. In 2012, Sachs’s art collection was auctioned at Sotheby’s, where the furniture set sold for £2.6 million, although Allen Jones received only £10,000 in royalties. Film-maker Stanley Kubrick was one of those very taken with the sculptures. Years earlier, he’d asked Jones to design some similar erotic ‘furniture’ for his film A Clockwork Orange, whose disturbing themes included violence against women. At first, Jones liked the idea but when it became clear Kubrick was expecting him to make the sculpture for free, he turned him down. Undeterred, Kubrick got a set designer to produce tables for the film, using models of completely naked women. One critic described the movie as ‘an intellectual’s pornographic film’. Mr Jones, pictured with one of his canvas creations in the 1960s, was asked to make furniture for Stanley Kubrick's film A Clockwork Orange but turned him down . David Lee, art critic and editor of art magazine Jackdaw, doesn’t believe Jones’s claim that the sculptures were some kind of ironic pro-feminist commentary on women’s position in society. Instead, he suggests that the cynical Jones deliberately set out to create a storm, particularly among feminists, in order to get noticed. Nor does Lee believe the chair and its accompanying hat-stand and table can be seen as great art. Jones’s entire oeuvre is, he says, ‘fairly superficial, about t**s, legs and bondage. [It’s] based on half-naked Bond-girl types. It makes me feel uneasy and squeamish. It’s sleazy.’ Since his controversial heyday, Jones has become something of a grand old man of British art, organising exhibitions with David Hockney and bemoaning the failure to teach drawing properly. What does he make of the chair at the centre of the current controversy. Is he flattered by Melgaard’s ‘homage’ to his original? Far from it. He told a BBC interviewer he found it ‘rather tacky and distasteful. I can only imagine that he [Melgaard] was going to get a lot of publicity, which unfortunately it has, for the wrong reasons.’ Perhaps Melgaard was simply working on the principle that sex sells, and there’s no such thing as bad publicity. As Jones himself discovered, 45 years ago.

Image shows the flower of a Corydalis caseana plant . An ancient Chinese herbal remedy could be used to fight chronic pain, new research has revealed. The roots of the flowering plant Corydalis – a member of the poppy family - have been used for centuries as a pain reliever. Now scientists have found they contain a key pain-relieving ingredient known as dehydrocorybulbine (DHCB) and that they do not lose effectiveness over time like traditional opiate drugs. The chemical acts not through the morphine receptor but through other receptors, in particular one that binds dopamine. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that helps control the brain's reward and pleasure centres and also helps regulate movement and emotional responses. Olivier Civelli of the University of California, Irvine, said: ‘Our study reports the discovery of a new natural product that can relieve pain. ‘This analgesic acts in animal assays against the three types of pain that afflict humans, including acute, inflammatory, and neuropathic or chronic pain.’ He made the discovery as part of the ‘herbalome’ project, an effort to catalogue all of the chemical components of traditional Chinese medicine. The Corydalis plants that were the focus of the new study grow mainly in central eastern China, where underground tubers are harvested, ground, and boiled in hot vinegar. Those concoctions are often prescribed to treat pain, including headaches and back pain. The researchers went looking for compounds in Corydalis that appeared likely to act in a manner similar to morphine. Dr Civelli said: ‘We landed on DHCB but rapidly found that it acts not through the morphine receptor but through other receptors, in particular one that binds dopamine.’ The discovery adds to earlier evidence showing that the dopamine D2 receptor plays a role in pain sensation. The plant roots have been used in traditional Chinese herbal medicine for hundreds of years - they are often used to treat headaches and back pain. Image shows farmers harvesting the roots in eastern China . While Corydalis extracts, or isolated . DHCB, work against all types of pain, they hold special promise for . those who suffer with persistent, low-level chronic pain. For one thing, DHCB doesn't appear to lose effectiveness with time in the way that traditional opiate drugs do. Dr Civelli said: ‘We have good pain medications for acute pain - codeine or morphine, for example. ‘We have pain medication for inflammatory pain, such as aspirin or acetaminophen. ‘We do not have good medications for chronic pain. DHCB may not be able to relieve strong chronic pain, but may be used for low-level chronic pain.’ He warned further testing for toxicity is needed before doctors should consider prescribing it to patients.

As she was: Gaga, real name Stefani Germanotta, on an MTV show back in 2005, when she would have been about 19 - it was around this time that she was attacked . When asked about the rape she initially said: 'I don't...I don't want to... Happy times! Let's talk about happy things!' But when the radio host pressed her on the issue, she said: 'I went through some horrific things that I'm able to laugh [at] now, because I've gone through a lot of mental and physical therapy and emotional therapy to heal over the years. 'My music's been wonderful for me. But, you know, I was a shell of my former self at one point. I was not myself. 'To be fair, I was about 19.

'I saw him one time in a store and I was so paralysed by fear. Because it wasn't until I was a little bit older that I went, \"Wow, that was really messed up.\"'# .

Lady Gaga's representative told TMZ, the allegations are 'absolutely not true' although refused to comment on the identity of the attacker. The spokesman later added: 'The Dr. Luke lawsuit is utterly incomprehensible. This simply isn't true and how dare someone take advantage of such a sensitive matter.' A representative for Dr Luke, real name Lukasz Sebastian Gottwald, told the website: 'Mark Geragos' statement is completely false and defamatory. Luke met Lady Gaga twice for less than half an hour total in those two meetings combined. He has never been alone with her and never touched her. Neither meeting was in that time frame reported.'

Mikhail Gorbachev has accused America of firing up a new Cold War and has called on 'avid militarists' to leave Europe - while Russian tanks rumble into Ukraine's eastern territory. The former Soviet leader spoke out as Ukrainian forces and separatist rebels agreed to a partial ceasefire in the civil war in the east of the country, which has claimed at least 4,300 lives. But despite the deal brokered, Ukraine yesterday said a military convoy of 106 vehicles including Howitzer tanks rolled into its Donetsk region from Russia without permission. Mr Gorbachev said there was still time to defuse the standoff between Moscow and the West as he and his western counterparts had done during the Perestroika period. 'Now there are once again signs of a Cold War,' he said in an interview with Tass, the state-owned Russian news agency. 'This process can and must be stopped. After all, we did it in the 1980s. We opted for de-escalation, for the reunification (of Germany). 'And back then it was a lot tougher than now. So we could do it again.' Mr Gorbachev did not refer to Ukraine directly but hinted at the conflict where the pro-EU government in Kiev is backed by the West while Moscow supports separatist rebels in the east. His comments came as Ukraine's military and separatist forces 'agreed in principle' to the new truce to bring 'a total ceasefire along the entire line of contact' in the Lugansk region. But differences remained on certain details, according to the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OCSE) who negotiated the deal. The truce, which is set to begin on Friday, comes exactly three months after the much violated September 5 ceasefire to end the separatist rebellion which began in April in Luhansk and Donetsk.

The ceasefire is not expected to affect ongoing hostilities at Donetsk airport, the road and rail junction of Debaltsevo, and the sea port of Mariupol, where the rebel lines are held by the Donetsk People’s Republic, the LNR’s sister-statelet. But, following days of fierce fighting, the Ukrainian military's press service said they had agreed to a temporary ceasefire at the airport in rebel held Donetsk, after talks with Russian officials. 'Particular attention will be paid to the question of Donetsk airport as it is a strategic site,' the press service said in a Facebook post. However, suspicions remain on both sides with Ukraine yesterday saying that the military convoy had entered its eastern territory from Russia. Ukrainian military spokesman Andriy Lysenko yesterday accused Moscow of using humanitarian aid shipments to smuggle weapons and ammunition.

'Therefore they are able to increase the intensity (of attacks),' he said, adding that Russian special forces were bolstering the rebels in the area. NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg also said the organisation had seen 'a significant military buildup in and around Ukraine, adding that there have been, 'large transfers of Russian advanced weapons, equipment and military personnel to violent separatists.' More than 4,300 people have been killed in eastern Ukraine since separatist rebellions began following the ouster of former president Viktor Yanukovych after protests about his decision to abandon closer ties with the European Union. After his removal, the Crimean peninsula, overwhelmingly ethnic Russian, was annexed by Moscow in March and the following month separatist rebellions began in the eastern Ukrainian regions of Luhansk and Donetsk. Ukraine wants the rebels to hand back the territory they have captured. Russia denies using humanitarian convoys to transport weapons and rejects Western and Ukrainian accusations that it is arming the rebels and sending fighters to aid them.

Dominick Diorio was charged with misdemeanor assault for allegedly punching Stiviano in the face and calling her the n-word outside a Meatpacking District hotel on June 1. But a judge decided Monday that the charges against the 40-year-old will be dropped if he avoids rearrest for the next six months. Monday's decision was just the latest legal blow to Stiviano.

The singer said in an interview late on Monday that his perspective on the case hasn't changed since the shooting in August. 'My feelings have been the same since that boy was murdered,' Williams said backstage at The Voice in Los Angeles, where he's a coach. 'Everyone is heartbroken. It's another teen, unarmed teen gunned down.' Scroll down for video . Pharrell Williams (pictured left on Monday) said he was 'heartbroken' over the shooting death of unarmed teen Michael Brown - a week after sparking a heated debate when he said the cop shooting victim's behavior was 'bully-ish' before his death . The 'Happy' hitmaker has been among the most high-profile recording artists to weigh in on the death of 18-year-old Brown in Ferguson and the racially charged aftermath, in a recently published Ebony magazine interview and elsewhere. Before he was shot dead, Brown was caught on surveillance camera stealing a handful of cigarillos from a convenience store in Ferguson, Missouri, and intimidating the shop owner. While Pharrell said that there was no excuse for Officer Darren Wilson to use lethal force against the unarmed teen, he thinks Brown's actions were overlooked in the national discussion about the tragedy. 'It looked very bully-ish; that in itself I had a problem with,' Pharrell told Ebony magazine. 'Not with the kid, but with whatever happened in his life for him to arrive at a place where that behavior is OK. Why aren't we talking about that?' Williams went on: 'The boy was walking in the middle of the street when the police supposedly told him to 'get the f*** on the sidewalk.' If you don't listen to that, after just having pushed a storeowner, you're asking for trouble.' Williams declined to comment on Monday about ongoing protests including school walkouts across the country. Intimidating: Police released this surveillance camera footage, reportedly showing Michael Brown grabbing a convenience store owner shortly before he was stopped by Officer Darren Wilson and shot dead on August 9 . 'It's not really about what I think. It's about what you're going to do. What are you going to do? He's a teen who is gone,' Williams said. 'He was gunned down. What are you going to do? You understand what I'm saying? That's why it hurts. Because you have no answer. None of us do. He's gone. That hurts.' After the story was published in Ebony magazine, Twitter was flooded with comments calling out Pharrell's interview. One Twitter user said: 'Mike Brown was a bully says Pharrell Williams. So do we get a pass to shoot bullies in society? Way to go Pharrell.' This isn't the first time that singer has started controversy over his opinions on race issues. In an interview with Oprah last year, Pharrell angered some when he said 'the new black doesn't blame others races for our issues'. Pharrell seemed hesitant to talk about race in the interview with the African-American monthly magazine, saying: 'I don't talk about race since it takes a very open mind to hear my view, because my view is the sky view. But I'm very troubled by what happened in Ferguson, Missouri.' However, he felt the need to weigh in on the current situation in the predominantly-black St Louis suburb, believing 'the hangover from Ferguson is going to be a long one, worse than Trayvon Martin'. In the interview with Ebony magazine, Pharrell said he was troubled that the man responsible for Brown's death, Officer Darren Wilson (pictured last week), will not face trial for the shooting . Trayvon Martin was another unarmed black 17-year-old who was shot dead two years ago near to where he lived in Sanford, Florida, by a man who thought he was a burglar. Shooter George Zimmerman was controversially acquitted on any charges in the teen's death. While his comments sparked a debate online, it's clear that Pharrell feels a strong connection to the current situation in Ferguson, Missouri, where protesters turned violent after hearing the grand jury's decision on Monday night. Following the decision, Pharrell tweeted: 'I'm heartbroken over the news of no indictment in Ferguson. Let's all pray for peace'. He says he still believes racism exists, and that the situation in Ferguson may have been calmer if President Obama went there to show his support. 'He didn't have to go and take a side; all he needed to do was show his presence and everybody would have straightened up. But he didn't go. I won't fault him. 'He's a man with a lot of weight on his shoulders, but I personally would have gone because being a ''man of the people'' means you're right there with them in it. Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr led by example.' Pharrell also made the strange decision to praise Bill Cosby during the interview, for the comedian's history preaching tough love to black youth. The actor is currently under fire after at least 17 women have come forward to accuse him of rape. 'I agree with him. When Cosby said it back then, I understood; I got it. Listen, we have to look at ourselves and take action for ourselves. 'Cosby can talk that talk because he created Fat Albert, he tried to buy NBC, he portrayed a doctor on The Cosby Show and had all of us wearing Coogi sweaters. You've got to respect him,' Pharrell said.

Promoter Frank Warren (centre) admits receiving complaints after the heavyweight clash between Dereck Chisora (left) and Tyson Fury (right) Fury defeated Chisora - but their fight did not finish until 1.20am, leaving many people stranded in London . Warren told the Daily Telegraph’s Gareth Davies: ‘We had 18,500 people there and up to now we’ve probably had about 48 people complain. It was a combination of ticket issues and travel issues. They are all issues that will be dealt with. There were some duplicate tickets, obviously not from us. But, as always, we get the blame. ‘We don’t get these problems normally and it’s a lesson learnt. The inner ringside itself was sectioned off by three lots of barriers.

Tests carried out by Oxford University researchers found that eaten raw the nuts had little effect on the immune system. They are now working on safe, dry-roasted peanuts to help prevent an allergy that affects one in 50 children. Peanuts cause allergic reactions chiefly when they have been dry-roasted, a study suggests (file picture) ‘We did a simple experiment and found that the mice fed the dry-roasted proteins got an immune response indicative of allergy,’ said researcher Quentin Sattentau. ‘Whereas the mice fed the raw peanut proteins didn’t or did to a much lesser extent.’ The result was the same whether the mice were fed peanut protein or had it rubbed into broken skin – both ways in which peanuts are thought to trigger allergies in humans. Professor Sattentau added: ‘This is the first time, to our knowledge, that a potential trigger for peanut allergy has been directly shown.’ The finding helps explain why peanut allergy is much more common here than in the Far East, where the nuts are more commonly eaten raw, boiled or fried. It is believed that the process of dry-roasting involves temperatures high enough to change the peanut’s chemistry in a way that confuses the immune system and leads to allergic reactions. It will be some years before safer dry-roasted peanuts are on supermarket shelves and the complex nature of the immune system means that those who already have a peanut allergy are unlikely to be helped. While the majority of reactions are mild, nut allergy can trigger a life-threatening anaphylactic shock. The Oxford team said it would be premature for people to avoid the nuts because of their research, published in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Raw nuts have little effect on the immune system, researchers find .\nOxford University study paves the way for safer dry-roasted peanuts .\nPeanut allergies, which can be life-threatening, affect one in 50 children ." } ]

Did they deserve one? Almost certainly not on the balance of a game where one side had noticeably higher ambitions than the other. Did Rob Green deserve more? Definitely. He was simply magnificent, a barrier that Swansea could not knock down for 78 minutes. And then, just like that, it was seven away defeats from seven trips.

Ki Sung-Yueng broke the heart, going outside Nedum Onuoha and firing in off the post, and Wayne Routledge kicked dirt in their eyes with a low finish from the edge of the area five minutes later. It was cruel on only one man - a goalkeeper with a green shirt and a red face. But Harry Redknapp could hardly argue as he weighed up the worst possible yield from a run of away games against top-half opposition. ‘We have had hard games,’ he said. ‘We caught Newcastle on the back of their five-game winning run, and we went to Chelsea and Tottenham and Manchester United. ‘They have not been easy. You only have to look at the table – the teams that have come up have (to make) a big step up.’ Predictably, Garry Monk carried a happier disposition. He said: ‘Some of Rob Green’s saves were fantastic. He probably didn’t deserve to be on the losing side. ‘But for me that was our most complete performance.’ Green’s impact on that performance was felt almost immediately. He smothered Routledge after the winger was clean through after three minutes and then blocked Kyle Bartley’s header moments later. When Gylfi Sigurdsson had a shot deflected off Joey Barton, it was Green who scrambled across his line to keep it out. When Sigurdsson had a free-kick on the edge of the box towards the end of the period, it was Green who acrobatically kept the sheet clean, albeit with the help of goal-line technology. The ball was almost entirely over the line. QPR keeper Rob Green makes a finger tip save from Gylfi Sigurdsson in a sensational performance .

For Swansea, it was looking like deja vu after battering Crystal Palace on Saturday and only taking a point. Monk said: ‘The message at half time was to keep moving the ball quickly and if we continue to create hopefully we will take one or two. Thankfully we were able to do that.’ For 78 minutes here, including two fine second-half saves by Green to deny Bony, there was no breaking through. Then the resistance broke.

An inquest in July heard that Peaches had started using heroin again in February, after taking the substitute drug methadone for two and a half years. Coroner Roger Hatch said she took a fatal dose of high-purity heroin shortly before she was found dead. At the time of the tragedy Kent Police said the death was ‘sudden’ and ‘unexplained’.

He found her body when he returned from a weekend away with the couple’s two-year-old son, Astala. Their one-year-old son Phaedra was in the house with his mother. Police found heroin and syringes in the house. A forensic scientist said the drug had a purity of 61 per cent – much higher than the average drug sold on the street. A pathologist told the inquest that Peaches’ blood contained a high level of heroin, along with traces of codeine, methadone and morphine. There were puncture marks on her arms and legs. Geldof told 5Live: 'My life turned out to be extremely episodic. ‘I certainly do not want the two little chaps caught up in our story and I supposed because of Paula, because of the girls, because of me, we have been in the British people’s face for 40 years, much to their irritation, I think a lot of the time, but I have to say they have been very kind.’" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Bob Geldof says he blames himself for his daughter's heroin overdose .\nHe goes 'over and over and over' what he could have done to help her .\nSinger knew she had drug addiction and they 'did more than talk about it'\nPeaches Geldof was found dead by her husband at their Kent home in April .\nHe said his daughter had a very 'errant mind' but she was also 'frantic'\nBoomtown Rats singer claims going on tour helps escape his grief ." } ]

He adds: 'There's 10,000 people in Pontiac right now with their hands in their pockets', to which the officer replies there has been 'a lot of robberies' in the area and he must inspect 'unusual conduct'. The footage of the incident - also videoed by the deputy at the time - led many to accuse the police of racial profiling, particularly in the wake of black 18-year-old Michael Brown's shooting death. But now, Oakland County Sheriff, Mike Bouchard, has defended his officer's actions, pointing out that McKean edited the video before posting it, and therefore it did not show the real story. In a Facebook post, he released the deputy's video of the events, in which the officer explains to McKean that the 911 call was made by the owner of local firm which had been robbed seven times. Alongside the video, Mr Bouchard's sheriff's office wrote: 'The caller and his employees were concerned about an individual who had walked by the front window of the business five or six times, while looking inside with his hands in his pockets.

In the unedited version of the event, the individual stated that if he had called the police on a suspicious person, he would expect the police to respond, check the area, and talk to the suspicious person being called about.' The post concluded: 'The Deputy did not detain or pat down the individual and considering the nature of the call responded in a very restrained and professional manner.' Mr Bouchard explained that the potential robbery suspect was wearing a green hoodie and a black jacket that matched the description of what McKean was donning in the officer's phone video. Speaking to ABC 7, he added that the officer had probable cause to make the stop, treated McKean with respect and could even have gone further that he did by patting him down and asking for ID. 'We have nothing to hide when we do our job,' he said. The footage of the incident - also videoed by the deputy at the time - led many to accuse the police of racial profiling, particularly in the wake of black 18-year-old Michael Brown's shooting death.

In McKean's footage, the officer can be heard asking him: 'Am I inconveniencing you?'. McKean replies that he is pleased he is capturing the incident on camera, to which the deputy says: 'Me too.'

The slightly bizarre ad, which was released on the company's YouTube page, showcases underwear brand Joe Boxer's range of cozy holiday loungewear and follows on from a last year's Kmart Christmas campaign, featuring six boxer-clad male models shaking their hips in time to Jingle Bells. Clearly eager to repeat the success of the viral video, which has received more than 18.3 million views on YouTube, the retailer has taken the festive fun to a whole new level with this campaign, which shows each of the mothers-to-be showcasing some seriously impressive moves, emphasizing their big bellies with a series of twerks and thrusts. Scroll down for video . Shake your bump! The five dancers perform to a hip hop remix of Santa Baby . Back-up plan: Kmart had to enlist two back-up dancers to wait in the wings in case one of the stars went into labor while filming . Clad in comfy-looking pajama bottoms, tight red tops and matching socks, the women first appear with their backs to the camera and are shown only as silhouettes, hiding the fact that they are pregnant. But just a few seconds into the campaign, the dancers turn into the spotlight and shake their rotund bellies at the camera, showing off their best hip hop moves, which, luckily, appear to have been unaffected by their pregnancies. The quirky concept was not without its complications however; according to USA Today, all of the women featured were in the last trimester of their pregnancy, in order to ensure they had appropriately large bellies. But with just a few weeks to go until each of their due dates, the retailer had to ensure it had back-ups waiting in the wings, in case one of the stars went into labor while on set. Merry Christmas! The advert is the latest in a line of entertaining festive campaigns . Festive fun: Each of the women is modeling a cozy pair of pajamas from underwear brand Joe Boxer . Surprise! At the start of the ad, the women hide their pregnant bellies, before whipping round to reveal them . Since the advert was filmed last month, at least one of the women has given birth - and the rest are expected to go into labor before Christmas. To accompany the womenswear ad, which has already racked up more than 210,000 view since it was uploaded yesterday, Kmart also debuted a menswear version last month, which features five male models using their stomachs as drums on which they bang out a festive carol. The retailer uploaded the menswear advert on November 17 and it has since been viewed by more than 1.1 million people, many of whom have been quick to congratulate the retailer on its unique advertising strategy. Bang the drums: To accompany the womenswear campaign, Kmart have also released a second Christmas ad which showcases the brand's menswear designs . Controversy at Christmas: Last year's campaign, which featured six boxer-clad models, came under fire from some shoppers who claimed it was 'disgusting' and 'sexist' 'Love the ad, and love YOU Kmart! :) Always look forward to your Holiday themed commercials, keep it up!' user Justin Wallace commented on the Jingle Bellies video, while Abelinda Morte added: 'I like this even better than last years!' Last year, Kmart faced criticism from some shoppers, who claimed the retailer's Show Your Joe advert was sexist and distasteful. 'You can forget me stepping into any of your stores. Pull that ad off the air,' one person wrote on the store's Facebook page, while another suggested: 'You should find someone to do better commercial writing.'" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "The expectant stars had to have back-ups waiting on-set in case they went into labor during filming .\nThe entertaining video follows last year's popular holiday ad which saw boxer-clad models thrusting their hips to Jingle Bells ." } ]

It was, perhaps, a reminder of his ability to produce just when it matters.

CLICK HERE for all the stats, goals - including Jordan Henderson's strike (above) - and heat maps from the King Power Stadium . Can they ever be without him? In a word, no. Gerrard may be in the autumn of his career but he was a towering presence at The King Power Stadium, driving his team forward relentlessly. Without him here, another two points would have been squandered. ‘It’s not about me,’ he pointed out. ‘It should be about a great team performance.’ Gerrard can argue the praise should be spread but Liverpool are unbeaten in three games – their best sequence of the campaign – thanks to him, his goal sandwiched by strikes from Adam Lallana and Jordan Henderson after Leonardo Ulloa raised the prospect of a shock. This is exactly what Brendan Rodgers – and his captain – required. Restored, as expected, to the starting line-up after a weekend break, he was left in no doubt by the fans in the visiting section over his place in their affections. His name was sung loudly and frequently, the songs drowning out barbs from Leicester’s supporters: do no doubt the vast majority of Liverpudlians want him to prolong the relationship they have shared into a seventeenth campaign. Liverpool’s ambitions, though, should not be so intrinsically linked to Gerrard. At 34, he should not be carrying the team. Others have to take responsibility, not least the expensive acquisitions who arrived during the summer as part of the restructuring programme. That is why Rodgers will have been satisfied to see Lallana score Liverpool’s opener. Things may not have not been smooth since he left Southampton but this was more like it, his second goal of the campaign coming at just the right time. Crisp and instant, it was a terrific left-foot finish, drilled in after Wes Morgan headed Lucas Leiva’s high-ball into his path. There looked to be some fury in his fist-jabbing celebration but, on the bench, Rodgers only briefly acknowledged it. What had happened five minutes prior had dulled his mood. A significant part of Liverpool’s troubles so far have stemmed from an inability to keep clean sheets and – more accurately – their bewildering ability to give away cheap goals. Never was this more evident than here. Leicester City mascot Filbert Fox greets some young home fans at the King Power Stadium ahead of the game .

Lambert (left) competes with Wes Morgan (right)in an aerial duel in the lead up to Liverpool's equaliser . Rodgers’ idea is to have a goalkeeper who is comfortable with the ball at his feet and give assurance to his defence but Mignolet is doing nothing of the sort at present, his performances a constant worry to his manager and team-mates. He had been ordered to go back to basics in the 1-0 win against Stoke – make saves, give it simple – but none of those instructions were carried over and a ridiculous error in the 19th minute almost handed Leicester the lead, when Mignolet gave the ball straight to Esteban Cambiasso. The Argentine could not make him pay, his left foot shot zipping fractionally wide, but the reprieve was only temporary as in the next attack Leicester had the lead. Liverpool, farcically, failed to clear their lines when defending a counterattack. Jamie Vardy caused the trouble, sprinting at Liverpool’s back four. Mignolet was weak and needed Martin Skrtel to head Vardy’s shot off the line but he couldn’t gather the rebound and Ulloa profited, his left-foot drive ending in the net via rebounds off the post and the back of the Belgian’s head. Shaking his head in disbelief, Mignolet stood with his hands on his hips, smiling ruefully. This, however, was no laughing matter. The longer he continues to be found wanting, the more vulnerable his side will be. It is an issue Liverpool must address. On this occasion, it didn’t prove costly. High on endeavour and brimming with determination, Leicester did not play like the worst team in the Barclays Premier League but every error they make is being ruthlessly punished. Nobody knows that better than Morgan. Having teed up Lallana, he provided the ‘assist’ for Gerrard to gleefully smash home in the 54th minute, after he tried to cut out a centre from Sterling after Lallana and Henderson had combined. It was his first goal in open play since January 28. Morgan’s night reached its nadir on the hour when his weak back pass allowed Rickie Lambert a free run at goal. Floundering, Morgan yanked Lambert’s arm back and sent him sprawling and gave referee Lee Mason a simple decision. Red card, game over. Leicester should have been down to nine when Kasper Schmeichel collided with Gerrard but frustrations were only temporary. Schmeichel erred in the 84th minute, Sterling cut the ball back and Henderson swept in. Gerrard, fittingly, celebrated that one with relish, too.

Cook, Anderson, Moeen Ali, Ballance, Bell, Broad, Buttler, Finn, Jordan, Robson, Root, Stokes, Woakes . Angus Fraser, Finn’s director of cricket at Middlesex and an England selector, told Sportsmail: ‘The time is right. He’s come through every challenge placed in front of him this season. There are obviously no guarantees of anything and he’ll be nervous. But he should take a lot of confidence from his selection.’ It was painful to watch Finn’s decline from the fearsome fast bowler with 90 wickets in 23 Tests into the disconsolate figure bowling in the nets in Australia as he tried to reconstruct his action. Recently he said: ‘It was horrible, standing at the back of my mark thinking, “Where is this going to go?”’ So alien did the ball feel, he even claimed to have lost sensation in his fingertips. His downward spiral had begun in 2012, when South Africa’s captain Graeme Smith opportunistically objected to Finn’s habit of dislodging the bails with his right knee at the point of delivery. In a bid to remedy the problem, Finn went wide of the stumps — and gradually found his technique unravelling. An attempt to wean him on to a shorter run-up did not help either. Net loss: Finn declined during the Ashes in Australia as he tried to reconstruct his bowling action . But some sensitive remedial work with Middlesex assistant coach Richard Johnson, himself a former Test bowler, helped restore Finn’s confidence. And his 44 wickets this season in Division One of the County Championship have come at a respectable 29 runs each. Johnson said: ‘He’s obviously gone through a hell of a lot in the last few months but he’s now at a stage where he’s bowling well and confident in himself. Given an opportunity, I think he’ll do well. In his own head, he’s back to bowling how he wants to bowl.’ Finn received the call on Sunday from national selector James Whitaker after heading down to Exeter to be with his girlfriend and prepare for a one-day game in Taunton for England Lions. But he has headed back to London to collect his Test kit before joining up with the full squad in Manchester. Fraser said: ‘I spoke to him and he’s really excited and looking forward to it. I’m very proud of both him and Richard Johnson. I’ve just let them get on with it and they’ve worked very well together. Missing out: Liam Plunkett has been withdrawn from the England squad because of an ankle injury . The hope now in the England dressing-room is that the Old Trafford pitch serves up the kind of pace and bounce which — before the square was rotated 90 degrees — used to be popular with Steve Harmison. Fraser was on Sunday poring over footage from Lancashire’s Twenty20 quarter-final in Manchester against Glamorgan on Saturday, and was especially pleased to see a match-changing triple-wicket maiden from home seamer Jordan Clark. ‘The pitch looked like it had a bit of bounce in it,’ he said. The Indians were impressed with Finn when England visited for a one-day tour at the end of 2011, even though they lost 5-0, and again when he and Jimmy Anderson bowled Cook’s team to victory in the third Test at Kolkata in December 2012. And he has enjoyed success in the past against Ajinkya Rahane, who is averaging 54 in the current series. Finn is only 25, still a few years away from his fast-bowling peak. If, after his traumatic winter, he’s impatient to scale it more quickly than that, no-one will be blaming him.

Surfers and early morning walkers were stunned to find thousands of 'alien eggs' on a Sydney beach this weekend. Locals in Dee Why, on the city's North Shore, reported seeing a large number of the strange objects which had washed ashore overnight. But rather than the green spheres being something from another planet, scientists explained they were a type of sponge-like seaweed that forms egg shapes possibly to protect themselves from predators. Scroll down for video . The mysterious green 'alien eggs' strewn across Sydney's Dee Why Beach . Locals said they'd never seen anything like the green algae balls that washed ashore at Dee Why this week . Beach-goers said they'd never seen anything like it, describing the balls as 'alien eggs, 'alien hairballs', Japanese moss balls and UFOs (Unidentified Floating Objects). 'About three days ago, there were a few egg-shaped balls but then today, they were much bigger and everywhere on the beach,' Naraweena resident Jenny Zhang told The Manly Daily. Scarlett de Villiers from nearby Davidson saw the weird balls on her regular morning beach walk. 'It was a windy day with a very high tide. I picked one up and squeezed it and it was so squishy - but I wasn't sure if it was alive and was worried I might hurt anything inside!' she told the Daily Mail. 'It struck me how perfectly shaped they all were and how green and alive they looked.' Associate Professor Alistair Poore from the School of Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences at the University of NSW said the balls were probably a rare type of living green algae, which has only been seen a handful of times around the world. The balls are thought to be an extremely rare species of filamentous green algae. The living organisms are known in Japan as 'Marumo' and Cladophora ball or Lake ball in English, and are sometimes found in freshwater lakes in the Northern Hemisphere. ‘Aegagropilious’ describes the habit of free living algae (algae not attached to rocks) forming into balls. Floating algae balls are thought to be brought ashore by warmer weather and the rough wave conditions. It's unknown why the algae forms into balls. One hypothesis is that a ball-shape helps protect the algae from hungry fish, another that it may help them roll back into the water and avoid drying out when they wash ashore. 'I’ve seen similar things - sometimes dead sea grass can roll around and form balls like underwater tumbleweeds but that’s made of dead material and these look to be living,' he told The Manly Daily. 'It is a habit known as \"aegagropilious\", where the algae is free living (not on rocks) and forms into spherical balls.' The Royal Botanic Gardens and Domain Trust’s Alan Millar said the algae balls made their way to the beach with the right biophysical conditions, but that these conditions don't align every Spring. 'It’s clearly another response to spring sunshine, and just the right wave conditions to tumble them,' said Mr Millar. 'Alien hairballs': The sponge like sea balls are thought to be rare living algae, sometimes seen in freshwater lakes in the Northern Hemisphere . Scientists think the algae forms into balls to protect itself from fish and other predators or so that they can roll back into the sea when washed ashore . It's the second unusual natural spectacle to hit Sydney's Beaches in a matter of weeks. Last month, the waves at Manly Beach were lit up a fluorescent blue for three nights by 'agitated' phytoplankton, apparently signalling the start of Spring." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Beach-goers describe green 'alien hairballs' washed up on a Sydney's Dee Why Beach .\nThe strange round objects are thought to be a rare type of living algae, brought ashore by warmer weather and rough conditions .\nScientists think the algae might form into balls to protect itself from hungry fish ." } ]

Manchester United's European exile means that December dawned before Louis van Gaal has taken charge of his first competitive match under the floodlights at Old Trafford. At this rate, the Dutchman will not have to wait so long next year. A fourth win in a row last night kept Van Gaal’s team in fourth position in the table and on course for the Champions League place he has targeted in his first season in English football. United had to do it without the injured Wayne Rooney and Angel Di Maria, and it wasn’t particularly pretty. VIDEO Scroll down for Sportsmail's Big Match stats: Manchester United 2-1 Stoke City .

Ratings by JOE BERNSTEIN at Old Trafford . They finished the match desperately clinging on as goalkeeper David de Gea produced a magnificent save to keep out a point-blank header from former United striker Mame Biram Diouf deep into added time. Moments later, the Goal Decision System was called upon to confirm that Diouf’s shot had not crossed the line when Ashley Young somehow kept out a shot. This time last year, United were losing twice at home in the space of four days to Everton and Newcastle and it’s fair to say this one might well have got away from them as well. But Van Gaal has obviously instilled some fight in his squad and the signs of progress are clear to see now, even if the manner of victory left much room for improvement. ‘We were lucky at the end but we deserved to win,’ he admitted. ‘As a top club you have to win and therefore I’m very happy with his result. ‘But it was not our best performance. We were not aggressive enough in the first half. 'The second half was better, we created more chances but we need to score more goals. The last few moments were not necessary.’ News of Di Maria’s expected absence arrived earlier in the day courtesy of his wife Jorgelina, who confirmed on social media that United’s £60million record signing had suffered a ‘small tear’ in his hamstring. However, Rooney’s absence came as something of a surprise and the England captain will have a scan on his injured knee on Wednesday. ‘My opinion is that it is not so heavy but I am not a doctor,’ said Van Gaal, who revealed that Daley Blind could be back from his knee injury by the end of the year. Rooney’s absence gave striker James Wilson the opportunity to make his first start under Van Gaal a day after his 19th birthday following six appearances as a substitute this season. The youngster impressed but missed a great chance to put United out of sight when clean through in the second half. In theory, Van Gaal could not have wished for a better opportunity to extend his winning run. Stoke had lost on all 11 previous visits to Old Trafford and their goalkeeper Asmir Begovic almost gifted the hosts a goal with an awful pass to Erik Pieters early on. Robin van Persie intercepted and squared the ball to Ander Herrera, who opted to shoot first time and clutched his head in his hands as it flew well over. United went ahead in the 21st minute as they swept down the left and Juan Mata played the ball into the path of Herrera. He swung a cross towards the back post and Pieters appeared to be rooted to the spot as Marouane Fellaini rose above him to plant a downward header past Begovic. Stoke were level six minutes before the break when Fellaini was guilty of undoing his good work. Quite what the big Belgian was thinking when he pulled away from visiting winger Oussama Assaidi’s high boot clutching his neck, only he knows. There had been no contact whatsoever, but even Assaidi stopped momentarily as Fellaini rolled around near the halfway line. Bojan Krkic did not hesitate, though, breaking forward on a mazy run that seemed to have reached a dead-end on the edge of the United box where the ball got caught up between Chris Smalling’s legs.

Match-winner Juan Mata has scored 10 goals for Manchester United – four of them scored under Louis van Gaal, and three apiece for David Moyes and Ryan Giggs . It rolled loose towards Steven Nzonzi and he produced a magnificent finish beyond De Gea from 20 yards. The winner arrived in the 59th minute after Pieters took down Antonio Valencia in full flight. Mata floated a free-kick over from the right flank and it bounced through into the corner of the net, even though Marcos Rojo claimed it had brushed his hair. Either way, Mark Hughes felt the Argentine was offside. ‘The lad Rojo, it doesn't matter if he doesn't touch it, he is clearly interfering with play,’ said the Stoke boss after a third straight defeat. ‘So the referee and his assistant should have cancelled that out. It’s the luck we’re having at the moment.’ That should really been that but Hughes threw on Marko Arnautovic and Peter Crouch and the proverbial kitchen sink.

The rebound from 2012’s record low comes six years after the BBC reported that global warming would leave the Arctic ice-free in summer by 2013. Instead, days before the annual autumn re-freeze is due to begin, an unbroken ice sheet more than half the size of Europe already stretches from the Canadian islands to Russia’s northern shores. Scroll down for video . Since publication of the original version of this article, the US source of the figures – the NASA-funded National Snow and Ice Data Centre (NSIDC) - was discovered to have made a huge error and then quietly corrected the figure without mentioning it. On September 4, NSIDC, based at the University of Colorado, stated on its website that in August 2013 the Arctic ice cover recovered by a record 2.38 million sq km – 919,000 sq miles – from its 2012 low. News of this figure was widely reported – including by Mailonline - on September 8. But on September 10, the NSIDC quietly changed it to 1.38 million sq km (533,000 sq miles) – and replaced the original document so the old figure no longer shows up on a main Google search. It can now only be found on an old ‘cached’ page. The figures in this article have now been corrected. Prompted by an inquiry from ‘green’ blogger Bob Ward, the NSIDC’s spokeswoman Natasha Vizcarra said the mistake was a ‘typographical error’, telling him: ‘There are no plans to make a statement on the change because it was not an error in the data.’ The Northwest Passage from the Atlantic to the Pacific has remained blocked by pack-ice all year. More than 20 yachts that had planned to sail it have been left ice-bound and a cruise ship attempting the route was forced to turn back. Some eminent scientists now believe the world is heading for a period of cooling that will not end until the middle of this century – a process that would expose computer forecasts of imminent catastrophic warming as dangerously misleading. The disclosure comes 11 months after The Mail on Sunday triggered intense political and scientific debate by revealing that global warming has ‘paused’ since the beginning of 1997 – an event that the computer models used by climate experts failed to predict. In March, this newspaper further revealed that temperatures are about to drop below the level that the models forecast with ‘90 per cent certainty’. The pause – which has now been accepted as real by every major climate research centre – is important, because the models’ predictions of ever-increasing global temperatures have made many of the world’s economies divert billions of pounds into ‘green’ measures to counter  climate change. Those predictions now appear gravely flawed. The continuing furore caused by The . Mail on Sunday’s revelations – which will now be amplified by the return . of the Arctic ice sheet – has forced the UN’s climate change body to . reconsider its position. The . UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was due in October . to start publishing its Fifth Assessment Report – a huge three-volume . study issued every six or seven years. It will hold a pre-summit in . Stockholm later this month. Only six years ago, the BBC reported that the Arctic would be ice-free in summer by 2013, citing a scientist in the US who claimed this was a ‘conservative’ forecast. Perhaps it was their confidence that led more than 20 yachts to try to sail the Northwest Passage from the Atlantic to  the Pacific this summer. As of last week, all these vessels were stuck in the ice, some at the eastern end of the passage in Prince Regent Inlet, others further west at Cape Bathurst. Shipping experts said the only way these vessels were likely to be freed was by the icebreakers of the Canadian coastguard. According to the official Canadian government website, the Northwest Passage has remained ice-bound and impassable  all summer. The BBC’s 2007 report quoted scientist  Professor Wieslaw Maslowski, who based his views on super-computer models and the fact that ‘we use a high-resolution regional model for the Arctic Ocean and sea ice’. He was confident his results were ‘much more realistic’ than other projections, which ‘underestimate the amount of heat delivered to the sea ice’. Also quoted was Cambridge University expert . Professor Peter Wadhams. He backed Professor Maslowski, saying his model was ‘more efficient’ than others because it ‘takes account of processes that happen internally in the ice’. He added: ‘This is not a cycle; not just a fluctuation. In the end, it will all just melt away quite suddenly.’ Leaked documents show that governments which support and finance the IPCC are demanding more than 1,500 changes to the report’s ‘summary for policymakers’. They say its current draft does not properly explain the pause. At the heart of the row lie two questions: the extent to which temperatures will rise with carbon dioxide levels, as well as how much of the warming over the past 150 years – so far, just 0.8C – is down to human greenhouse gas emissions and how much is due to natural variability. In its draft report, the IPCC says it is ‘95 per cent confident’ that global warming has been caused by humans – up from 90 per cent in 2007. This claim is already hotly disputed. US climate expert Professor Judith Curry said last night: ‘In fact, the uncertainty is getting bigger. It’s now clear the models are way too sensitive to carbon dioxide. I cannot see any basis for the IPCC increasing its confidence level.’ She pointed . to long-term cycles  in ocean temperature, which have a huge influence . on climate and  suggest the world may be approaching a period similar to . that from 1965 to 1975, when there was a clear cooling trend. This led . some scientists at the time to forecast an imminent ice age. Professor . Anastasios Tsonis, of the University of Wisconsin, was one of the first . to investigate the ocean cycles. He said: ‘We are already in a cooling . trend, which I think will continue for the next 15 years at least. There . is no doubt the warming of the 1980s and 1990s has stopped. Then... NASA satellite images showing the spread of Arctic sea ice 27th August 2012 . ...And now, much bigger: The same Nasa image taken in 2013 . ‘The IPCC claims its models show a pause of 15 years can be expected. But that means that after only a very few years more, they will have to admit they are wrong.’ Others are more cautious. Dr Ed Hawkins, of Reading University, drew the graph published by The Mail on Sunday in March showing how far world temperatures have diverged from computer predictions. He admitted the cycles may have caused some of the recorded warming, but insisted that natural variability alone could not explain all of the temperature rise over the past 150 years. Nonetheless, the belief that summer Arctic ice is about to disappear remains an IPCC tenet, frequently flung in the face of critics who point to the pause. Yet there is mounting evidence that Arctic ice levels are cyclical. Data uncovered by climate historians show that there was a massive melt in the 1920s and 1930s, followed by intense re-freezes that ended only in 1979 – the year the IPCC says that shrinking began. Professor Curry said the ice’s behaviour over the next five years would be crucial, both for understanding the climate and for future policy. ‘Arctic sea ice is the indicator to watch,’ she said." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "533,000 more square miles of ocean covered with ice than in 2012 .\nBBC reported in 2007 global warming would leave Arctic ice-free in summer by 2013 .\nPublication of UN climate change report suggesting global warming caused by humans pushed back to later this month ." } ]

There was some question about whether the veteran medical journalist would ever return to NBC News. Dr Nancy Snyderman, pictured on NBC's Today show in 2011, will return to screens on Wednesday to report on a medical story - but not about Ebola . She had been reporting on the Ebola outbreak in Liberia for NBC in October at the time a cameraman who briefly worked with her, Ashoka Mukpo, came down with the deadly virus. Mukpo was transferred back to the U.S. for treatment at a Nebraska medical facility and has since recovered. Snyderman and the rest of the NBC team were urged to quarantine themselves for a 21-day period upon their return to the United States. Neither she nor anyone else from the network came down with Ebola. During the midst of that quarantine, Snyderman and her crew were spotted getting takeout food from a New Jersey restaurant, prompting New Jersey officials to make her quarantine mandatory. Her takeout foray angered her bosses and unleashed a bitter response online, with some suggestions by viewers that they would have a hard time trusting her again after the mistake in judgment.

'We were determined to fight for him to ensure he could live out his days free from beatings and harm and we've had many a sleepless night worrying about what the future held for him. 'He had been so terribly brutalised for 50 years that we feared he'd be unable to live with his own kind. He didn't even know how to be an elephant. But now he's joined our herd of rescued Indian elephants it's like he's always been with them.' In the court in India, Wildlife SOS lawyers argued an elephant cannot be owned by someone under Indian law as they are all owned by the Government. They successfully argued that only a license issued from the Chief Wildlife Warden is proof of ownership. The legal team of Raju's former owners were unable to produce documents to show that they were the certified owners of the elephant . Wildlife experts believe that Raju was poached from his mother as a young calf before being sold on and treated as a commodity . When the legal team of Raju's previous owner were unable to produce a certificate the case was dismissed. Wildlife SOS executive director Nikki Sharp explained: 'This meant that Raju was finally truly free and there is no chance he will be returned to the shackles that chained him for 50 years. 'It was completely outrageous to us that two months after we'd cut his chains his freedom was threatened. 'He had just started to settle into his new home with our charity, making friends and learning to trust people. 'It was too cruel to contemplate that this was under threat. 'Although we always hoped we would win this case because we all love Raju we couldn't help but feel profound anxiety over what was happening. Now, finally his future is secure.' The court case followed the rescue of Raju by the London-based charity who had stepped in to save the elephant from dying in his bonds. Mr Satyanarayan added: 'Like all of the elephants we have rescued, we believe Raju was poached from the his mother as a young calf. A 10-strong team of vets and wildlife experts were joined by 20 forestry department officers and six policemen to seize Raju from his suffering in July . The head vet from the charity Wildlife SOS Dr Yaduraj Khadpekar had the job of freeing Raju from his chains . He was discovered have been held in chains which had left him bleeding from spiked shackles and was forced to beg for food from passing tourists . 'The poachers either slaughter the mother, or they drive the herd into traps that are small enough only for the babies to fall into. The mother cries for her baby for days after he's been stolen – it is a sickening trade. 'The calves are then tied and beaten until they submit to their owners – their spirits are effectively broken. 'Raju's case was particularly tragic. He'd been poached as a calf and then he has been sold on and sold on. Incredibly we believe he has had up to 27 owners – he's been treated as a commodity every two years of his life. The moment that Raju was finally freed from his chains, wildlife experts said that tears rolled down his face as he began to cry . A delighted Raju appears to smile after enjoying his first meal after being freed. The charity believes that the elephant had a total of 27 owners after being poached as a calf . 'By the time we found him in July 2013 he was in a pathetic condition. He had no shelter for him at night, and was being used as a prop to beg from dawn until dusk from tourists visiting the sites of India. 'He hadn't been fed properly and tourists started giving him sweet food items and because he was in a state of hunger and exhaustion he began eating plastic and paper. 'It took us 45 minutes to remove the shackles that had torn into the flesh on his legs for the past 50 years – and act of unthinkable cruelty. And it was when he was finally freed that tears gushed down his face. I'd never seen anything like it in my life. 'His legs were so covered in absesses and his feet so damaged by walking on hard tarmac roads, that we have spent £40,000 so far on his medical treatment, and we still have a long way to go as he has a serious limp and open wounds. 'Pain and brutality were all he knew. His cruel handler even tore out the hair from his tail to sell as good luck charms. The exploitation and abuse just had to stop.' Now the charity has launched a Christmas campaign to save the last 67 performing circus elephants in India to join the charity's herd of hope. The charity has so far spent £40,000 on the elephant's medical treatment so far and he is still suffering from open wounds and a serious limp . After his release, Raju was taken to Wildlife SOS's sanctuary. The organisation is also planning to rescue another elephant from its abusive owner . Mr Satyanarayan added: 'Raju and our herd of hope are the lucky ones. But there are 67 performing elephants in India – many of which suffer daily beatings in order to make them perform. 'We're already planning our next rescue – the desperate case of a blind elephant who is forced to perform even though she can't see for crowds. It's a pitiful case and we need to free her so she can join Raju. 'Now the public can help him live out a dignified life in peace with even a small donation,' Mr said Kartick, whose charity is dependent on public donations. 'All these elephants have known from human beings is pain and suffering – now we're asking to help us help him live out their days, with grass under their feet – free from humiliation and pain.'

The baby was the first known calf born since 2012 to a population of endangered orcas that frequent Puget Sound in Washington state. It has not been seen since its pod returned in recent days to the inland waters of western Washington, said the center's Ken Balcomb. A baby orca swims between two adults in the waters of Puget Sound near Seattle, Washington. Ken Balcomb of the Center for Whale Research believes that the baby orca apparently died while its pod was in the open ocean . 'The baby is gone,' he said Tuesday. The pod was offshore for a week to 10 days, and the orca designated L-120 might have been lost in a storm in the middle of last week, Balcomb said. The baby was a member of 'L pod,' one of three closely tracked families within the dwindling Puget Sound population. Researchers observed the pod, but not the baby, on Friday in Puget Sound, on Saturday in the eastern Strait of Juan de Fuca, and on Monday in Haro Strait, between San Juan Island and Victoria, British Columbia. 'The mother is there, aunt's there, big brother,' Balcomb said. 'The baby didn't make it.' That leaves 78 killer whales in the Puget Sound population. Dwindling: There are just 78 killer whales in Puget Sound and it appears their numbers are declining . The newborn was spotted in the first week of September off San Juan Island. Two other whales are presumed dead after disappearing earlier this year, so the birth was hailed. 'We were being guardedly optimistic that a turning point had been reached, but that is not the case,' Balcomb said. The unique population numbered more than 140 animals decades ago but declined to a low of 71 in the 1970s, when dozens were captured for marine parks and aquariums. The orcas were listed as endangered in 2005. The striking black and white whales have come to symbolize the Pacific Northwest. Individual whales are identified by slight variations in the shape of their dorsal fins and distinctive whitish-gray patch of pigment behind the dorsal fin, called a saddle patch.

Holder traveled to Atlanta to meet with law enforcement and community leaders for the first in a series of regional meetings around the country, taking place at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta – the church where the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. preached. President Barack Obama had asked Holder to set up the meetings in the wake of clashes between protesters and police in Ferguson, Missouri. 'In the coming days, I will announce updated Justice Department guidance regarding profiling by federal law enforcement. This will institute rigorous new standards – and robust safeguards – to help end racial profiling, once and for all,' Holder said. 'This new guidance will codify our commitment to the very highest standards of fair and effective policing.' SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO . U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder spoke, preacher-style, during an interfaith service at Ebenezer Baptist Church, the church where The Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. preached, on Monday . Protesters were escorted out after interrupting Holder's speech . Tensions between police and the community in Ferguson boiled over into violent confrontations in August after a white police officer shot a black teenager. Protests turned violent again last week after a grand jury declined to indict officer Darren Wilson in the death of 18-year-old Michael Brown. Holder's meeting in Atlanta included a closed roundtable discussion with law enforcement and community leaders followed by a public interfaith service and community forum. The meeting came on the heels of Obama's request to federal agencies Monday for recommendations to ensure the U.S. isn't building a 'militarized culture' within police departments. The White House also announced it wants more police to wear cameras that capture their interactions with civilians. The cameras are part of a $263 million spending package to help police departments improve their community relations. The selection of King's church as the site for the meeting was significant. The most successful and enduring movements for change adhere to the principles of non-aggression and nonviolence that King preached, Holder said. 'As this congregation knows better than most, peaceful protest has long been a hallmark, and a legacy, of past struggles for progress,' he said. 'This is what Dr. King taught us, half a century ago, in his eloquent words from the Ebenezer pulpit and in the vision he shared from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.' While the grand jury has made its decision, the Justice Department continues its investigation into the death of Brown and into allegations of unconstitutional policing patterns or practices by the Ferguson Police Department, Holder said to loud applause. Holder also told the crowd that the meetings he's convening around the country are just the beginning and that he wants to start a frank dialogue and then translate that into concrete action and results. Protesters in Atlanta remained peaceful but seemed every bit as angry as those in Ferguson, MIssouri . Civil rights activists chanted outside the church as Holder pledged to end 'racial profiling' in police departments . Holder's comments were well-received by the audience. When a group of people interrupted his speech with chants and was escorted out, Holder applauded their 'genuine expression of concern and involvement' and got a standing ovation from the crowd. Several dozen protesters chanted and waved signs referencing Ferguson outside the doors of church. Holder, who plans to leave the position once a successor is confirmed, has identified civil rights as a cornerstone priority for the Justice Department and speaks frequently about what he calls inequities in the treatment of minorities in the criminal justice system. He has targeted sentences for nonviolent drug crimes that he says are overly harsh and disproportionately affect black defendants and has promoted alternatives to prison for non-violent offenders. Holder, center, met with law enforcement and community leaders for a roundtable discussion at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta on Monday, as he works to calm racial tensions in the weeks before he retires . Cynthia Winfree, of Atlanta, leaned in to listen through a window as Holder spoke to a capacity crowd . Last year, as part of the Justice Department's 'Smart on Crime' initiative, he instructed federal prosecutors to stop charging many nonviolent drug defendants with offenses that carry mandatory minimum sentences – punishments that he said were contributing to overcrowded prisons. The Justice Department has also broadened the criteria for inmates seeking clemency in hopes of encouraging potentially thousands more inmates to apply, and Holder backed changes in federal sentencing guideline ranges that could result in tens of thousands of drug prisoners becoming eligible for early release. Holder also has publicly discussed the need to ease tensions between police departments and minority communities. The Justice Department has also targeted flawed police departments, initiating roughly 20 investigations of local police agencies – including Ferguson 0in the past five years. A new pilot program announced weeks after the Ferguson shooting will study racial bias in American cities and recommend ways to reduce the problem. He has spoken about race in sometimes personal terms, recalling after the Ferguson shooting instances in which as a younger man he was stopped or confronted by police without cause. He has also said he understands mistrust of law enforcement in minority communities." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Outgoing attorney general spoke at the same Atlanta church where Rev.

Goals: Cisse 48 . Booked: Williamson, Tiote . Manager: Alan Pardew 6.5 . Referee: Phil Dowd 7 . Man-of-the-match: Papiss Cisse . Attendance: 18, 791 . Super stat: Papiss Cisse has scored five goals from four starts this season. ‘Papiss is Papiss, he will always sniff a chance out, he’s done that in every game he has ever played for us.’ The Senegal frontman was making his first start since November 1, absent or reduced to cameo roles from the bench in the meantime amid concerns over his fitness. And on the evidence of his first-half display — in which he lashed one chance horribly over the bar — Cisse was, as suspected, far from his sharpest. That, though, could be said of every one of his Newcastle team-mates as they entered the break trailing to George Boyd’s 34th-minute blast. Pardew said: ‘It was hard to watch that first half. They close the game down and make it hard for you. ‘I was pleased to see our fans stayed for the second half, because the last 20 minutes of the first half was tough. I wasn’t angry at half-time, I just felt we lost our verve to get on the ball. Once we did that the pitch and the game opened up. I brought some technical players on and we took risks and got our reward for it.’ The equaliser arrived when Daryl Janmaat centred from the right and Cisse stole in to hook home his fifth goal of the season. But on a night when temperatures dipped below freezing, it was £12million substitute Remy Cabella who injected the energy and invention his side had previously lacked. ‘The big difference was Cabella, who gave us technical ability,’ said Pardew. ‘You might not expect that of an eight-stone Frenchman on a cold night at Burnley, but he was excellent. ‘That’s good news because we’ve been waiting for him to come alive. He’s been a slow-burner. He took the game by the scruff of the neck. He has to be a David Silva type for us, get on the ball and run the game.’ In the end, a point proved fair for both sides and saw Burnley move out of the relegation zone.

Abeid (left) goes toe to toe with Burnley defender Stephen Ward in the early stages at Turf Moor . They took a deserved lead when Boyd fired past former school friend Rob Elliot in the Newcastle goal. Kieran Trippier loaded a ball forward from deep inside his own half, Danny Ings jumped to nod back to the feet of Boyd and he arrowed through bodies and beyond a motionless Elliot from 20 yards. It could have been two before the break had David Jones, darting into the area, not lashed wide in added-time. Burnley manager Sean Dyche said: ‘In the first half we were excellent and we had a real big chance before half-time to go in at 2-0. ‘We expected a reaction from them and we gave them that chance. It was a poor goal to concede. Afterwards we had pockets of good play but so did they, they’re a good side. ‘For all of their injuries they did quite well to bring Steven Taylor, Remy Cabella and Emmanuele Riviere on. I wish we had those options.’ He added: ‘We have to turn those “so nearly” games into three points and it’s important we just concentrate on performances rather than the league table.’ Newcastle may well have made it seven wins in eight late on with Cabella particularly impressive. The sight of their marquee summer signing finally starting to come good at the onset of winter will cheer Pardew before Saturday’s visit of league leaders Chelsea to St James’ Park.

Alan Irvine has overseen a fourth successive loss, as the relegation places loom closer. Fan chants told his story too. ‘Taxi for Irvine,’ the home crowd shouted. They have seen their team win only three times in the Premier League this calendar year. Irvine said: ‘It’s not going to help but I can’t control that, the fans have every right to behave in every way they chose. 'I’ve said we are a lot stronger if everybody is pulling in the same direction. 'It comes with the territory. It’s not that long since Sam went through it.’ Irvine evidently lacks full confidence in his squad players to alter starting line-ups much. Summer signing Silvestre Varela was brought on in the second half for only his second appearance of the season. Striker Brown Ideye, who cost £9million, came on with six minutes to go for his first outing since late October. It is quite the opposite for Allardyce, who won here without starting Enner Valencia or the injured Diafra Sakho – two players who lit up West Ham’s opening games. Kevin Nolan scored his first goal since February on his return to the side, while James Tomkins found the winner with a header on the stroke of half-time. Craig Dawson had given Albion an early lead but the high spirits soon faded. ‘Our summer months of hard work in recruiting terms and pre season are still paying off for us,’ said Allardyce. ‘It wasn’t great but it was resilient.

CLICK HERE to view our brilliant Match Zone including the move for Kevin Nolan's equaliser against West Brom . West Brom took the lead in the 10th minute when Victor Anichebe turned Tomkins and earned a free-kick on the angle of the area. Graham Dorrans whipped across a devious ball, but it was far too simple for Dawson to bound into the six-yard area, past Tomkins, and find a glancing header into the net. Given Albion’s last goal came virtue of the rather unfortunate Esteban Cambiasso in victory at Leicester, this broke a run of 370 minutes since someone on the payroll had scored. It was reward for a bright start, but near enough straight away the hosts began to sit back. West Ham needed no invitation to attack. By half-time the visitors were ahead. Nolan, at 32, is less of a fixture in Allardyce’s side than he once was but he still possesses an uncanny ability at close range. In the 35th minute Stewart Downing flung a free-kick into the area. Chris Brunt only cleared Tomkins’ header into the air and Andy Carroll connected in spectacular fashion with a bicycle kick that flew at goal. Ben Foster sprang to save but Nolan had ghosted into the six-yard box and nodded the rebound in – his first goal since February 22. On the stroke of half-time Brunt was forced off injured and West Ham went ahead. Foster pushed a shot from Cheikhou Kouyate round the post to concede a corner. Downing flighted it deep and Tomkins out-leapt Dawson to head home. A role reversal of earlier – and far too easy again. Dawson had a chance to atone seven minutes after the interval, but dragged his shot horribly wide. Then, just as they did against Arsenal, West Brom roused to rally in the final 10 minutes. Anichebe found space in the box and drove a shot at goal that Adrian saved with his legs, then Dorrans hit a volley that flashed just wide. Once again, it was too little, too late.

The attack happened on the same day that security forces brutally cleared two protest camps of ousted Islamist President Mohammed Morsi's supporters, killing hundreds. Protesters were demanding the reinstatement of Morsi, who hails from the Muslim Brotherhood group. Some 22,000 people have been arrested since Morsi's ousting, including most of the Brotherhood's top leaders, as well as large numbers of others swept up by police during pro-Morsi protests. Today's sentence requires the opinion of Egypt's top religious authority, the Grand Mufti. The court is scheduled to issue a final verdict January 24. Defendants can then appeal.

Arihano Haiti, 33, was found guilty of killing Stefan Ramin on Nuku Hiva, in French Polynesia, and sexually assaulting his girlfriend . A South Sea Islander accused of killing and eating a German adventurer has been jailed for 28 years for murder. Arihano Haiti, 33, a registered tourist guide, was found guilty of killing Stefan Ramin on Nuku Hiva, in French Polynesia, and sexually assaulting his girlfriend. A judge ruled that Haiti would have no possibility of parole until he has served at least 18 years of his near three-decade sentence. Mr Ramin, 40, and his girlfriend had been on an island hopping adventure in the South Pacific when he was killed and she was assaulted. The crime shocked the tiny island of Nuku Hiva which, with a population of just more than 2,000, was previously best known from the stories of Herman Melville, author of Moby Dick. Haiti was first arrested in 2011, amid claims that he had taking Mr Ramin hunting then killed him, carved him up and eaten parts of his body before setting fire to what remained. He then returned to where Mr Ramin's girlfriend was waiting, tied her up and sexually assaulted her. He fled when she escaped and raised the alarm, going on the run for 50 days before giving himself up. A French Polynesian court heard that investigators were unable to prove the claims of cannibalism and prosecutors accused Haiti of shooting the German man with a bullet in the head, cutting up the body and then burning it. Mr Ramin and his girlfriend had moored their Turkish-bought catamaran Baju off the coast of Nuku Hiva on September 16, as part of a planned two-year stint island hopping around Polynesia. Murder in paradise: Stefan Ramin and his girlfriend on their travels. They had been sailing around Polynesia . Mr Ramin had hired Haiti - a guide registered with authorities on the island - to take him into the island's interior on a goat hunt. He never returned. Police say Haiti went back to the boat to try to lure Mr Ramin's girlfriend into the jungle by claiming that Mr Ramin had had an accident and needed help. Desperate claims: Haiti had claimed in his defence that he shot Mr Ramin and attacked his girlfriend because the German had sexually assaulted him . She was suspicious and refused to go with him, but he had then ended up sexually assaulting her anyway and tying her to a tree. After she escaped human and alerted authorities, Mr Ramin's burnt remains were found. Among the embers investigators found a jaw bone, teeth and melted metal - believed to be fillings. Mr Ramin, a fanatical sailor, was a former business adviser. He kept a regular blog of his trip which begun in 2008 and one of his last entries read: 'I seek freedom and adventures'. On Facebook, he listed his interests as 'travelling, blue water sailing, kiting, kitesurfing, windsurfing, surfing, diving... actually everything which one can do on and under the water'. Haiti had claimed in his defence that he shot Mr Ramin because the German had sexually assaulted him. After killing Mr Ramin, he said, he decided to sexually assault his girlfriend in revenge for his own assault. But detectives in Germany working together with the local investigators say they had found no evidence that the German had had any homosexual tendencies. Happy: Mr Ramin with his girlfriend. Detectives in Germany working together with the local investigators say they had found no evidence that the German had any homosexual tendencies . A lawyer for the dead man's family, Yves Pirou, said that the accused's allegations were a pure work of fiction. He said the reality was exactly the opposite and while there was no indication that the victim had any homosexual tendencies, Haiti was known to have had regular contact with transvestites and the probability is far more likely that he had raped Mr Ramin or at least tried to rape him. This was backed up by investigators who pointed out that Haiti was physically far bigger and stronger than Mr Ramin. In addition a physical examination of Haiti after he was arrested had shown no indication that he had had suffered any sexual assault. Haiti's lawyer Vincent Dubois said that the hunter was not a monster and argues that it was clear something went wrong on the trip to the mountain." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Arihano Haiti also sexually assaulted Stefan Ramin's girlfriend .\nThe pair were visiting Huku Niva, French Polynesia, while island hopping .\nMr Ramin employed Haiti as a guide and never returned from their trip .\nHaiti claimed he shot Mr Ramin in revenge for the German raping him .\nBut investigators found no evidence that the hunter was a sex attack victim ." } ]

Researchers say that by the year 2060, American will remember Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter 'as they now remember about our 13th president, Millard Fillmore'. However, they found some presidents - including John F Kennedy and Barack Obama, could be remembered longer. Can you name the presidents in the order they served? Researchers asked college students (top) and adults (bottom) - and found only the first and last few were known - and Abraham Lincoln. In each test, participants were provided a numbered list with blank spaces and asked to fill in the names of all presidents they could remember in the order in which they served. If they could remember names but not the order, they were instructed to guess or to put the names off to the side. Thus, the results could be scored for recall of presidents with or without regard to correct order. 'By the year 2060, Americans will probably remember as much about the 39th and 40th presidents, Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan, as they now remember about our 13th president, Millard Fillmore,' said Henry Roediger at Washington University in St. Louis, who co-authored the new paper. He has been testing the ability of undergraduate college students to remember the names of presidents since 1973, when he first administered the test to undergraduates while a psychology graduate student at Yale University. The current study, co-authored with Washington University graduate student K. Andrew DeSoto, compared results from the presidential-recall tests Roediger has given to three generations of undergraduate college students (1974, 1991 and 2009) and a similar test offered online to 577 adults ages 18-69 in 2014. While Roediger's early research used the presidential-recall test to study patterns of remembering and forgetting in individual test takers, the new study was able to uncover how Americans forget presidents from our historical or popular memory over time. In each test, participants were provided a numbered list with blank spaces and asked to fill in the names of all presidents they could remember in the order in which they served. If they could remember names but not the order, they were instructed to guess or to put the names off to the side. Thus, the results could be scored for recall of presidents with or without regard to correct order. The findings showed several consistent patterns in how we have forgotten past presidents and offer a formula to predict the rate at which current presidents are likely to be forgotten by future generations. From George Washington to Obama: Students were tested on their ability to recall Presidents and the order in which they served . Researchers say that by the year 2060, American will remember Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter 'as they now remember about our 13th president, Millard Fillmore'. Among the six presidents who were serving or had served most recently when the test was first given in 1973, Harry S. Truman, Lyndon B. Johnson and Gerald R. Ford are now fading fast from historical memory, whereas John F. Kennedy has been better retained. The study estimates that Truman will be forgotten by three-fourths of college students by 2040, 87 years after his leaving office, bringing him down to the level of presidents such as Zachary Taylor and William McKinley. How quickly presidents are forgotten: researchers created an algorithm to find out how soon they will be forgotten. The current data do not permit assessment of forgetting rates of the most recent presidents, and do not specify why some relatively recent presidents are forgotten more rapidly than others, Roediger said. 'Kennedy was president less than three years, but is today remembered much better than Lyndon Johnson,' Roediger said. 'One idea is that his assassination made him memorable, but of course that does not apply to James Garfield or William McKinley, who were also assassinated and are remembered relatively poorly. In chronological order, the Presidents of the United States are: . George Washington, 1789-1797 . John Adams, 1797-1801 . Thomas Jefferson, 1801-1809 . James Madison, 1809-1817 . James Monroe, 1817-1825 . John Quincy Adams, 1825-1829 . Andrew Jackson, 1829-1837 . Martin Van Buren, 1837-1841 . William Henry Harrison, 1841 . John Tyler, 1841-1845 . James Knox Polk, 1845-1849 . Zachary Taylor, 1849-1850 . Millard Fillmore, 1850-1853 . Franklin Pierce, 1853-1857 . James Buchanan, 1857-1861 . Abraham Lincoln, 1861-1865 . Andrew Johnson, 1865-1869 . Ulysses S. Grant, 1869-1877 . Rutherford Birchard Hayes, 1877-1881 . James Abram Garfield, 1881 . Chester Alan Arthur, 1881-1885 . Grover Cleveland, 1885-1889 . Benjamin Harrison, 1889-1893 . Grover Cleveland, 1893-1897 . William McKinley, 1897-1901 . Theodore Roosevelt, 1901-1909 . William Howard Taft, 1909-1913 . Woodrow Wilson, 1913-1921 . Warren Gamaliel Harding, 1921-1923 . Calvin Coolidge, 1923-1929 . Herbert Clark Hoover, 1929-1933 . Franklin Delano Roosevelt, 1933-1945 . Harry S. Truman, 1945-1953 . Dwight David Eisenhower, 1953-1961 . John Fitzgerald Kennedy, 1961-1963 . Lyndon Baines Johnson, 1963-1969 . Richard Milhous Nixon, 1969-1974 . Gerald Rudolph Ford, 1974-1977 . James Earl Carter, Jr., 1977-1981 . Ronald Wilson Reagan, 1981-1989 . George Herbert Walker Bush, 1989-1993 . William Jefferson Clinton, 1993-2001 . George Walker Bush, 2001-2009 . Barack Hussein Obama, 2009- . 'Kennedy may be well recalled because his brothers and other family members were (and are) active in politics and help to keep his memory alive,' Roediger speculated. HIllary Clinton, if elected in 2016, has the potential to be much better remembered than her husband, because her presidency would represent a unique first in American history. Barack Obama may be well remembered for the same reason, Roediger said. The rate at which college students forgot the order of recent presidents remained remarkably consistent over time and across different groups of college students. In 1974, nearly all college students recalled Johnson and his ordinal position (36), but by 1991, the proportion remembering him dropped to 53 percent and by 2009, it plummeted to 20 percent. When asked to name the presidents in the order they served, we as a nation do fairly well at naming the last few presidents, but our recall abilities then fall off quickly, with less than 20 percent able to remember more than the last eight or nine presidents in order, the study finds. While Americans who were tested could name the nation's first president (George Washington) and do reasonably well at naming the next three or four presidents in order, the recall success rate for early presidents also drops off sharply, with fewer than 25 percent of Americans able to recall more than the first five presidents in order. 'Out of the 150 college students we tested in 2009, only four of them were able to recall virtually every president and place each in the correct position,' DeSoto said. 'It's possible that these individuals used a mnemonic like a song or rhyme that they learned for the purpose of remembering the presidents.' With a few interesting exceptions, the vast majority of presidents in the middle of pack -- from No. 8, Martin Van Buren, to No. 30, Calvin Coolidge -- already are largely forgotten by the average American, the study finds. A president to be remembered? HIllary Clinton, if elected in 2016, has the potential to be much better remembered than her husband, the researchers said,  because her presidency would represent a unique first in American history. The probability that anyone who took the test could recall both the name and the order of most presidents in this middle range is quite low, and this level of poor recall for the middle presidents has generally held true in testing across all generations for nearly four decades. A notable exception in this middle wasteland of presidential recall is Abraham Lincoln and his two immediate successors, Andrew Johnson and Ulysses S. Grant. 'Clearly, Lincoln and his successors are well remembered because of their association with the American Civil War and the ending of slavery, but it is notable that many students and adults also often know that Lincoln was the 16th president,' Roediger said. Other pre-Coolidge presidents who were remembered reasonably well in the free recall portion of the test are Theodore Roosevelt (26), William Howard Taft (27) and Woodrow Wilson (28), a showing that could be related to their favorable rankings by historians and ongoing mentions in popular culture and news media, the researchers suggest." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Students were tested on their ability to recall presidents and the order in which they served .\nSome presidents - including Kennedy and Obama, are remembered longer ." } ]

Cellino was holding talks in Bahrain with the club's former owner Gulf Finance House - the investment bank still control 25 per cent of the club's shares - when the Football League announced on Monday the Italian had failed its 'owners and directors' test'. The league told Cellino he must stand down after finally receiving further evidence of dishonesty from the Italian judge who convicted him for tax evasion in March. Massimo Cellino (centre) watches Leeds play Brentford at Griffin Park back in September . It was all quiet outside Elland Road on Monday as the statements were released . Hollywood actor Verne Troyer (centre) poses with Cellino's daughter Eleonora at Elland Road on Saturday . The 58-year-old will be entitled to return to his position at the club on March 18 next year when the conviction is spent under UK law. The league has said Cellino had 14 days to lodge an appeal. 'I don't want to spend a lot of money on lawyers,' Cellino told ITV. 'This club in the last five years has spent more money on lawyers than players.' When asked to confirm he will appeal, Cellino said: 'Sure. I'm going to meet my lawyers. They (Football League) have made a big mistake. 'They're just throwing money from the window.' Cellino took control of Leeds in April when his family company, Eleanora Sport Limited, bought 75 per cent of the club's shares from GFH. The former Cagliari owner announced a new £20million investment in Leeds on Saturday and said he had successfully negotiated a £5million contribution from GFH after meeting with the investment bank's officials in Bahrain. The statue of former Leeds captain Billy Bremner stands proud outside the famous old ground . Leeds' players celebrate Mirco Antenucci's strike in the 2-1 win over league leaders Derby on Saturday . We have today received a notice from the Football League disqualifying Mr Cellino from being a director of Leeds United Football Club until March 18 2015. The club is in the process of taking legal advice on the reasoning of the decision. In the interim, the club notes that nothing has changed since the decision of the Football League’s Professional Conduct Committee in April 2014. The steps that the League wishes the club to take – to remove Mr Cellino only to re-appoint him in three months’ time - will be destabilising for the club, its supporters and sponsors and cannot be in the best interests of any party. Cellino added: 'I solved a big problem (on Monday) in Bahrain. It was important for the survival of this club. This club now is financially strong, it looks to the future and we're going to present the facts. 'We're going to fix the club and the league is going to realise it's doing a big mistake.' The league initially attempted to block Cellino's takeover of Leeds after his tax conviction in April, but the Italian successfully appealed. But the judge who over-ruled the league's decision, Tim Kerr QC, said if it was later concluded that Cellino had acted dishonestly when failing to pay import duty on his yacht, he would fail the 'owners' and directors' test'. Cellino faces a second similar charge of tax evasion on another yacht. The latest court case in Sardinia was adjourned in late October and it is understood a new date has yet to be confirmed. The league has also asked an independent disciplinary commission to consider whether Cellino breached league regulations by not disclosing information it had obtained from the Sardinian court which convicted him in March. Press Association Sport understands there is no time limit on the commission's findings as this further breach of its rules is an entirely separate process. It is also understood that Eleanora Sport could install a new management structure at Elland Road to satisfy the league that Cellino has no financial or executive influence on the club during his disqualification period. The Board of Directors of The Football League has, once again, considered the position of Leeds United President, Massimo Cellino, under its Owners' and Directors' Test. Previously (March 2014), the Board had ruled that Mr Cellino was subject to a disqualifying condition after he was found guilty of an offence under Italian tax legislation relating to the non-payment of import duties on a boat (which resulted in him being fined €600,000). In April 2014, this decision was successfully appealed by Mr Cellino at a hearing of the Professional Conduct Committee (PCC) chaired by an independent QC (sitting alone). In reaching his verdict, Tim Kerr QC concluded that: “Mr Cellino has satisfied me that on the facts before me, what he was convicted of was not conduct which would reasonably be considered to be dishonest.” Before going on to state that: “if the reasoned ruling of the court in Cagliari discloses that the conduct of Mr Cellino was such that it would reasonably be considered to be dishonest, he would become subject to a Disqualifying Condition.” Cellino watches Leeds take on QPR back in March before his takeover had been completed . At its meeting last week, the Board considered the reasoned Judgment of the Italian Court against Mr Cellino, having successfully applied to the Italian Courts for its full disclosure. The Board considered detailed legal advice and agreed unanimously (with the exception of its Chief Executive, Shaun Harvey, who did not take part in the debate or vote having declared an interest*) that Mr Cellino is subject to a disqualifying condition under the terms of the Test. Mr Cellino is entitled to appeal the Board's decision to the PCC within 14 days. As the Judgment of the Italian Court has not been published in Italy, The Football League will not make any of its contents public. Additionally, the Board concluded that it was appropriate to ask an independent Football Disciplinary Commission (FDC) to consider whether Mr Cellino and/or Leeds United breached League regulations relating to the timely disclosure of relevant information. The matter will be heard by an FDC in due course. Editors notes: . * Shaun Harvey was Chief Executive and a Director of Leeds United between 2004 and 2013.

Endangered Australian marsupial, 'Prince George' inside Sydney's Taronga Zoo nocturnal enclosure sniffs at the hand of his keeper, British born Paul Davies, who says he has high hopes of the animal producing bilbies in the future, following next month's visit by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and their son, Prince George . The royal couple will engage in the feeding displays of tree kangaroos (left) and the giraffes (right) on their   visit to Taronga next month, on Easter Sunday . Jantan, a male orang-utan, drinks peppermint tea at Taronga Zoo which he and his partner, Willow, are served with hot meals as the weather cools down towards winter . 'Last year we put him with a female called Kirra and we tried everything, but they didn't reproduce, so we asked for a young female. 'Her name's Yajala, it means friend [in an Aboriginal language]. She's down there. That's why he keeps on taking off. She might be coming into season. 'He's sniffing at her door, although I must say 'Prince George' has been quite the gentleman to date.' As the bilby scampered away down the corridor to linger outside the darkened enclosure where the new young female bilby is 'settling in' to life at Taronga, Mr Davies explained why he had become so passionate since emigrating to Australia about a native animal most Australians had never seen. Mr Davies, who lives in Sydney with his French-born wife, Delphine, and their 13-year-old son, who is also mad about bilbies, said he had started working at Taronga a year after arriving in Australia. Set against the spectacular backdrop of Sydney harbour with its bridge Taronga Zoo is home to 4,000 animals of 350 species, including this Himalayan Tahr (above) The display by the birds of prey at Taronga (above) will be part of the zoo tour undertaken by the royal couple . 'I got my first job working on a horse stud in Queensland and when I showed them my diploma of zoo keeping from London, they just said 'put that away you Pommie bastard, we don't need to see it' and so I just worked with the horses on the farm and it was great. 'I started at Taronga and then in the nocturnal house and I just got to love bilbies. They are the most amazing little animals. 'See those ears? They're like sophisticated  air conditioning systems to help them survive in the desert, where it's hot during the day and freezing at night. 'When it’s hot, the bilbies keep their ears erect. The ears are hairless and rapidly cool the little creatures. When it’s cold, they let their ears fall against their head, almost like a little helmet, to conserve heat. 'We’ve also found they can run very quickly and when they do, the hold their white-tipped tails forwards over their heads, like a little lamp lighting their way. 'We’re getting amazing reactions from people.' Ordinary Australians will be allowed in to Taronga Zoo (above) on Easter Sunday, when the royal couple - and, perhaps Prince George - visit the bilby, enlcosure and see tree kangaroos, giraffes and birds of prey . Once he learned how fast the bilbies can move, Mr Davies set up what he jokingly calls 'the running of the bilbies', a display for visitors in which bilbies like 'Prince George' run up the corridor to a special setting of fake rocks, sand and tree stumps he has assembled between walls painted in Aboriginal colours and with the different tribal names for the creature. 'Bilbies once thrived across 70 per cent of Australia,' he said. 'These days most bilby populations are on Aboriginal land in the deserts of the Northern Territory and Western Australia. 'Elsewhere they've had to compete with rabbits, feral cats and populations have declined, so we have high hopes for his lordship and our breeding programme.' It is not confirmed whether young Prince George will accompany his parents to Taronga Zoo on Easter Sunday, when the Duke and Duchess will start at the bilby enclosure, move on to feeding sessions in the tree kangaroo and giraffe enclosures, and then watch the birds of prey and other animals. 'I like the challenge of a close encounter as with animals,' Mr Davies said, 'if you get people close to an animal, you can make them aware about conservation and that is very important with our bilbies.' Mr Davies, who still has family back in Hertfordshire, says he is very happy he moved to sunny Australia but he now spends so much time in the nocturnal enclosure he has to take Vitamin D tablets to regulate his system. 'But I love my work,' he said, 'and I love getting people excited about wildlife.' Taronga director, Cameron Kerr said the zoo was part of 'a national breeding program across a number of Australian zoos and wildlife organisations that are involved in conservation, breeding and research to provide an insurance population to safeguard' bilbies into the future. 'We look forward to introducing Their Royal Highnesses to our bilbies in April,' he said." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Endangered Australian bilby 'Prince George' adopted by Prince George .\nSydney's zoo named enclosure after royal heir with Palace approval .\nTaronga Zoo ready for April visit by Duke and Duchess of Cambridge .\nNow the marsupial is being nicknamed 'Prince George' by British keeper .\nPaul Davies of Hertfordshire says 'Prince George' is 'very cool dude'\nDavies trained at London Zoo and feeds 'his Lordship' worms and maggots .\n'Prince George' royal bilby may get to meet Prince George, royal baby ." } ]

If Paul Lambert is to quell the growing discontent among Aston Villa supporters, then he'll need Christian Benteke by his side. The Belgium international was on hand to ease the pressure on his manager on Tuesday night, scoring the winner, his first goal since March, against Crystal Palace. Benteke, making his return from a three-match suspension, is fully fit again after an achilles injury caused him to miss the back end of last season, the World Cup and the start of the current campaign. VIDEO Scroll down to watch Sportsmail Big Match Stats: Crystal Palace 0-1 Aston Villa . Aston Villa striker Christian Benteke wheels away in celebration after scoring against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park . Benteke scored his first goal since March against Neil Warnock's side during the first half of the Premier League clash . Eagles goalkeeper Julian Speroni dives to his left but is unable to stop Benteke's strike from going into his net . Crystal Palace (4-4-2): Speroni 6; Kelly 6 (Puncheon 89), Dann 5.5, Hangeland 6, Ward 6.5; Zaha 6, Jedinak 7, McArthur 6.5, Bolasie 6.5; Chamakh 6.5, Gayle 5 (Campbell 46).

Referee: Michael Oliver 6.5. Attendance: 23,935. 'I've been lucky enough to play with some of the best players in the world, and if he keeps progressing (Benteke can get there),' said Lambert. 'He offers you that potency in attack. He had that really bad injury, and his suspension never helped our case, but he's been excellent since he's been back.' Lambert will be hoping his talismanic striker can now stay injury - and suspension - free as he looks to keep the wolves from his door. Villa supporters have been asking real questions of Lambert; the swell of opinion for the Scot to leave is growing. And pressure from the terraces looked to be transmitting onto the field as Villa started nervously. Brad Guzan was saved by Ciaran Clark's goalline clearance after his fumble from Yannick Bolasie's shot was stabbed goalwards by Dwight Gayle. The visitor's then faced strong appeals from Palace for a penalty after Tom Cleverley tangled with Wilfried Zaha, before Gayle missed his kick after Joel Ward's inviting cross. Villa's uncomfortable start continued as Joe Cole, fresh from his first Villa goal against Burnley on Saturday, limped off in the ninth minute with a hamstring problem as the Midlanders provided nothing in the way of attacking intent inside the opening 15 minutes. However, in the 28th minute Villa provided a spark - invariably it came from Benteke, who turned Scott Dann beautifully on the edge of the area before unleashing a right foot drive that Julian Speroni tipped over the bar. There was no goal, but at least it was something; a semblance of fight from Villa. And it proved the catalyst Villa's winner four minutes later in a moment Palace defender Scott Dann will want to erase from memory. The centre half, located on the right-hand touchline, only needed to clear Martin Kelly's pass to avert any danger - instead he dallied and was robbed by Benteke, who took full advantage by striding forward before slotting past Speroni. Benteke took advantage of an error by Scott Dann to score the only goal of the match - click HERE to see more of our brilliant Match Zone . Palace midfielder James McArthur was unable to close down Benteke in time to stop the Belgium international from scoring . Guzan ensured Villa stayed in front before the break, saving from Zaha and Bolasie as Palace pressed for an equaliser before Maroaune Chamakh sent a diving header wide in the 50th minute. Had Benteke got a touch on Ashley Westwood's dangerous inswinging free-kick or Andreas Weimann finished with just Speroni to beat then the second half would have been far more comfortable for Lambert. But it was from pleasant for the Scot as Fraizer Campbell, on for Gayle at half-time, was denied a penalty after Clark looked to have pulled the striker down - much to Warnock's dismay. The Palace boss was even more bewildered when Campbell, Bolasie and Dann all failed to get a toe on Zaha's low ball across the face of goal in the final minute. 'We are looking for a player like Benteke in January, I think held Villa together tonight,' admitted Warnock. 'We should have had a penalty, though, the referee's in a bad position and didn't see Campbell was pulled back.'

A prickly media exchange between Mourinho and Brendan Rodgers, friends and colleagues turned foes, followed the clash last April when the Liverpool boss accused the Londoners of 'parking two buses' and said it was 'not difficult' to coach a team to defend in numbers. Rodgers eventually sent a conciliatory message to his former mentor, but he must have been bruised by the defeat. Perhaps, in some ways, his team are still feeling the effects. They have won only seven of 18 since. Jose Mourinho (left) and Chelsea ruined Liverpool's title dream last season in a spiky encounter . Steven Gerrard's slip allowed Demba Ba to race through and score the opening goal in a 2-0 victory . Ba's strike changed the complexion of the game and allowed Chelsea to pick Liverpool off on the counter . With the defeat Liverpool blew their big chance to win a Premier League title for the first time since 1990 . And Chelsea midfielder Nemanja Matic has stoked the fires again ahead of Saturday lunchtime's re-run, with an apparent jibe at Liverpool's attitude after last season's encounter. 'Nobody's happy when you lose a game and they weren't happy after that game,' said Matic. 'Many teams have tried to park the bus in front of the goal against us, but we win. It's not easy. If you defend you have to know how to defend. It was 2-0. We showed we have quality.' Liverpool were top of the Barclays Premier League in April, closing in on a first title since 1990, when Mourinho sent out a weakened team in a fixture which preceded a Champions League semi-final. It was a clash laced with enmity, with Chelsea upset the game had not been moved to help their preparations for Atletico Madrid and Rodgers angry with Mourinho's defensive tactics. This time, the Londoners are top of the league, unbeaten in 17 games this season and confident they can extend that against a Liverpool team, which has spluttered since they sold Luis Suarez. 'It is a different story,' said Matic. 'We are ready. We are first and we want to stay there. We will play a different way and I'm very happy because we will play one big game on Saturday.' Blues defender Nemanja Matic (left) has had a dig at Liverpool ahead of the meeting between the sides . Matic, celebrating with Branislav Ivanovic, heads for Anfield after scoring Chelsea's goal against Maribor . Chelsea will be full strength, without distractions. They will adopt different tactics and are determined not to stumble as Liverpool did in April. 'It was three games to go, they were fighting for the title and they wanted to win,' said Branislav Ivanovic. They struggled in a must-win. Last season was completely different. 'Now we are going there on top of the table. We know it's difficult but also our team knows how to win there. It will be very exciting. We know what we have to do. We have a lot of things to do to be successful and get points from Anfield.' 'We know what we have to do,' says Ivanovic (left) as Chelsea prepare to face Liverpool on Saturday . This is a fierce modern rivalry which first emerged from the sparring between Mourinho and Rafa Benitez a decade ago and has been well and truly reignited by that clash in April, when Chelsea's second string halted an 11-match winning streak, stunned Anfield and opened the door for Manchester City to be champions. Steven Gerrard's slip for the first goal, scored by Demba Ba, now features in a popular song and Suarez has stirred emotions by writing in his book that one Chelsea player had told him he was ashamed of Mourinho's time-wasting tactics. Ivanovic would not address the Suarez allegations when asked, after the draw in Maribor on Wednesday. Luis Suarez left a mark on last season's clash - saying one Chelsea player was ashamed of Mourinho's tactics . The atmosphere will sizzle on Saturday lunchtime. Liverpool are 12 points adrift of their visitors after 10 games but will take great satisfaction if they can end Chelsea's unbeaten start to this campaign. Complaints have been rumbling inside Stamford Bridge as Liverpool have enjoyed an extra day to recover from a European away game, when Rodgers rested first-team players in a 1-0 defeat at Real Madrid. Mourinho's squad returned from a 1-1 draw against Maribor, in Slovenia, in the early hours of Thursday morning and will fly to Merseyside after training on Friday but the players have their minds fixed on another positive result. 'It's one of the massive, crucial games for us,' said Ivanovic. 'For this kind of game you always have to find extra motivation and it's not about the tightness or fitness. 'We have two days to recover, this is usual and it's not our first time to play that. We know and we are professional, and we have to do a lot of things to be ready for that game.'

Provide a succinct and relevant summary of the provided text." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Just when you thought it time for a period of reflection on this wonderful golfing season comes one last storyline not only intriguing in its own right but with repercussions for 2015. In Isleworth, Florida this week — yes, the place where he used to reside and where he smashed into a fire hydrant five years ago, causing his life to change irrevocably — we will witness the latest comeback of Tiger Woods. Tiger Woods makes his comeback and could offer clues as to his future at the highest level in Orlando . Past comebacks have included one from injury in 2009 and one at the Masters in 2010, when the scandalous revelations that followed his hydrant prang the previous Thanksgiving had finally died down. Back then, given the nature of the man and the fact he was relatively young, you felt sure he would find his way back to the summit, and sure enough he did. But this one has a far more uncertain feel about it. When last seen, the poor soul could barely hit a shot without yelping in agony. At the Bridgestone Invitational in August, the greatest athlete the game has seen climbed into his courtesy car with all the agility of a man in his eighties. The following week, we had the bleak pantomime of a limp-laden appearance at the PGA Championship before, thankfully, he took himself off to try to restore an acceptable modicum of fitness and health. And now, a few days shy of his 39th birthday, he’s back. Even if he is fit enough, will Woods be able to compete against the likes of Rory McIlroy? Two huge questions will dominate the landscape at the World Challenge event Tiger usually hosts in California but which has moved to the Sunshine State this year. Will he ever be fit enough to play again on a regular basis at the highest level? And, even if he is fit enough, will he be able to compete against the likes of Rory McIlroy, who will be striping the ball comfortably 40 yards past him off the tee? Neither question will be fully answered in Orlando, of course, but there will be plenty of fascinating clues. For starters, how will he swing the club under the tutelage of new coach Chris Como, whose specialist area is injury prevention? During this lost year, Woods has watched McIlroy fulfil all his awesome potential. He’s seen American golf begin the painful process of moving on and invest faith in the likes of Rickie Fowler and the impressive Jordan Spieth. American golf has invested in the likes of Rickie Fowler (above) and Jordan Spieth . Does Tiger have any relevance to this ongoing narrative, outside the usual amount of interest that will always be centred upon an athlete who has achieved so much? At Isleworth this week, let’s hope for one or two positive signs. Given the ages of the two men, wouldn’t it be truly sad if we never got to witness at least one authentic Tiger versus Rory shootout? When the pair got together for a late-night American television appearance last August, amid plenty of playful banter, Woods looked McIlroy in the eye at one point and said: ‘I’m not going to let you win a green jacket next year.’ Fingers crossed, against the likes of Graeme McDowell and current Masters champion Bubba Watson this week, Woods shows enough to suggest that, by the time McIlroy’s first tilt at a career grand slam rolls around next April, he can ignite a contest for the ages. Ryder Cup reflection is great for Christmas . Given it’s only been two months since Jamie Donaldson claimed the winning point at the Ryder Cup, you might be suspicious of any film or book detailing the ‘Glory of Gleneagles’ as being rushed out for the Christmas market. Happily, the official film that runs over two DVDs and a book proclaiming to be the ‘inside story’ are worthy testimonies to the events over that marvellous long weekend. The DVD (Lace, £15) not only brings all the main highlights but is filled with extras, including an excellent hour-long ‘Captain’s Diary,’ in which Paul McGinley goes through his week in fascinating detail. Showdown (Elliott and Thompson, £14.99), written by BBC 5 Live’s golf correspondent Iain Carter, fills in all the gaps the film format inevitably leaves — particularly when it follows the ‘official’ line. Here we find a skilful chronicle of all the drama witnessed during the year before anyone got anywhere near the venue and the incidents from Gleneagles that were left on the cutting room floor, like the fallout from Phil Mickelson’s comments about Tom Watson’s captaincy. In short, two ideal Christmas presents for the golfer you know. Quote of the week . ‘You could give me another 100 rounds today at The Australian and I wouldn’t sniff 63…. Well done Jordan Spieth, very impressive!’ Rory McIlroy, who was the defending champion, paid a warm tribute to the young American who took his title with an extraordinary, final round 63 at the Australian Open on Sunday. A number of astute judges, including former European Tour player Michael Clayton, went so far as to call it the finest round played in the tournament’s long and illustrious history." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Tiger Woods will make his latest comeback in Isleworth, Florida this week .\nThe 38-year-old has watched Rory McIlroy fulfil his awesome potential .\nAmerican golf has invested in the likes of Rickie Fowler and Jordan Spieth ." } ]

An intriguing 90 minutes ended, with Karim Benzema having netted the goal which separated the sides, and the game produced a number of talking points, most notably the performances of the players who Rodgers chose to go with in the Bernabeu Stadium. Here Sportsmail analyses five issues that arose during the Group B contest and looks at whether the night has the potential to be a turning point in a campaign that has stuttered and spluttered during the opening months. Brendan Rodgers made seven changes to the team that started on the weekend against Newcastle United . Karim Benzema celebrates scoring the winning goal for Real Madrid against Liverpool at the Bernabeu . Simon Mignolet (second left) looks dejected as Real's players congratulate Benzema after his opener . 1) Kolo Toure cannot lose his place against Chelsea . If there were fears beforehand that Toure’s presence in Liverpool’s defence would be the catalyst for a Madrid goal spree, they were soon dispelled. The Ivorian has been derided during his time on Merseyside for his tendency to make spectacular mistakes but, here, he didn’t put a foot wrong. Another big test looms against Chelsea but if Rodgers was to bring Dejan Lovren back, it would be grossly unfair. The manager may see Lovren as a future leader of his defence but the start to his Liverpool career has been underwhelming. There is reason to feel he was dropped not rested. Toure, by contrast, has not done badly when he has been called upon - apart from one aberration when conceding a penalty in the Capital One Cup defeat of Middlesbrough - and he dealt with Cristiano Ronaldo et al confidently. He deserves the chance now to shackle Diego Costa. Kolo Toure (left) holds off Karim Benzema in what was an impressive display by the Liverpool defender . Benzema (right) hurdles as he is denied by a combination of Simon Mignolet (on ground) and Kolo Toure . 2) Simon Mignolet could have turned the corner . Pressure has been building on Mignolet and if Liverpool had struck an agreement with Victor Valdes, who they had been tracking since the summer, he would have faced a major fight to preserve his status as No 1. Mignolet’s performances have been erratic, anxious even, and his failure to command the penalty area, to exude authority, have caused jitters to spread. The intensity of the Bernabeu could have tipped him over the edge but the Belgium international responded impressively. Two fine stops in the first 10 minutes from James Rodriguez and Ronaldo set him up and, for once, he looked ready to go to war with his defenders, barking his displeasure if their concentration dipped. The scrutiny will not go away but this display may bolster his fragile confidence. Simon Mingolet (centre) rises to collect a cross and deny Cristiano Ronaldo an effort at goal . The view from behind the goal as Mignolet stretches and acrobatically denies Ronaldo (left) 3) Alberto Moreno is the pick of Liverpool’s summer spending spree . There has been scrutiny on how better off Liverpool are for their heavy transfer expenditure - rightly so - but, with each game, Moreno is making his £12million acquisition look smart business. The toing and froing with Sevilla to broker a deal appears worthwhile. Back in familiar surrounds, the Spain Under-21 international was accomplished from first whistle to last, covering miles up and down the left flank. He showed discipline to stick to his task defensively but also added weight to Liverpool’s attack, delivering some fine crosses. He has been culpable for some of the goals conceded so far - think Newcastle United on Saturday and Manchester City on his debut spring to mind - but once Liverpool polish his rough edges, Moreno will be a gem. Real Madrid versus Liverpool was an occasion in which he was at home. Alberto Moreno has looked good going forward and could prove to be Rodgers' best summer signing . Moreno (right) tackles Real Madrid's Gareth Bale during the match at the Bernabeu on Tuesday . 4) Criticism of Rodgers must be given perspective . The radio phone-ins on Saturday evening made for illuminating listening. Vexed by the manner of the loss at Newcastle, a flurry of callers to 606 unleashed their fury on Rodgers and suggested his time at Anfield was up. This, of course, is the way of the modern world. Rodgers again found himself under fire for making eight changes in the Bernabeu - this observer’s view is that it was far too many and could have backfired spectacularly. He must appreciate why there was such uproar, given the fixture. It created the perception this was a distraction. High up in the stands, though, Liverpool’s travelling supporters gave frequent and noisy backing to their manager, reminding him of their affection. Rodgers must prove himself this season and show what happened in the last campaign was no fluke but Anfield’s masses have faith in his project. Liverpool fans who travelled to the Bernabeu showed support for Rodgers during the game despite changes . Rodgers roars out orders to his depleted side from his technical area at the Bernabeu . Brendan Rodgers stands stony-faced on the touchline at the Bernabeu during Liverpool's defeat . 5) Steven Gerrard’s status as one of world football’s top stars is undiminished . Rodgers had his reasons for using Gerrard from the bench but the game was poorer without his presence from the first whistle. That said, the moment he was summoned to the action produced a marvellous reaction from the home supporters. Gerrard, who had spoken warmly about Real Madrid before the first Group B game, was given a standing ovation when he entered the fray, a sign from Bernabeu regulars that they have recognised and appreciated all he has achieved through his career. Liverpool plan to open formal contract talks with him soon and Rodgers does not want to lose his captain. If, though, for some reason they carelessly allowed him to leave, plenty of top clubs would be ready to take him. Madrid’s fans showed how well he would be received in Spain.

He died surrounded in hospital by family and friends on Thursday. Abbott's team, New South Wales, rallied around each other at a training session at the SCG on Tuesday.

The team will fly together to Macksville, Hughes' hometown on the NSW north coast, on Wednesday morning and return Thursday. The Sydney Cricket Ground will also be open to the public on Tuesday for the wider community to join celebrations of Hughes' life. As Macksville readies for an influx of 5000 mourners, a member of Hughes' family told Daily Mail Australia they were planning to console Abbott. 'We can't wait to see Sean Abbott tomorrow and give him a big kiss and hug,' the family member said. 'We just want to tell him it was freak accident and he cannot think he had anything to do with it. 'No one is blaming him. We want to hug him and tell him that everything is OK.' Last week, friends and mentors at the Baulkham Hills Cricket Club, the north-western Sydney institution where Abbott grew up belting balls, joined countless Australians in rallying around the up-and-coming-cricketer. The 22-year-old seamer Abbott delivered the ball that felled Hughes last Tuesday afternoon . When one of Abbott's team-mates dropped a crucial catch as a youngster, he was always the good sportsman who would pat them on the back and reassure them it would be OK, they said. Ian Chatman, who managed Abbott's junior team for about eight years and witnessed his first century, told Daily Mail Australia he was a grounded young man who was 'loved by everyone, and still is.' 'He was really loved by his team-mates, and he cared about them as well,' said Mr Chatman, who said Abbott would be 'devastated' by last Tuesday's events. Australian skipper Michael Clarke posted this tribute to his 'little brother' Hughes on Instagram this week . 'He was always making sure that you know, if someone dropped a catch, he'd be over there patting them on the back saying, \"Don't worry about it, it's okay\".' Hughes' sister Megan and Australian skipper Michael Clarke both consoled the devastated cricketer in the immediate aftermath of his friend's death. And they were far from alone. Prime Minister Tony Abbott and Opposition Leader Bill Shorten both spoke in support of the struggling cricketer. Former Australian national Test captain Adam Gilchrist tweeted: 'May those footprints in the sand now support another young man in need. #SeanAbbott'.

Sickening images purportedly taken in the central square of the extremists' de facto capital Raqqa show the battered and bloodstained body of an unnamed 17-year-old boy strapped to a cross. A handwritten placard hangs around the teenager's neck, accusing him of 'apostasy' - the abandonment of his religion - and says he had been crucified for three days after being caught receiving 500 Turkish lira for every photograph he took of an Islamic State military base. Scroll down for video . Sickening: Images purportedly taken in the central square of the extremists' de facto capital Raqqa show the battered and bloodstained body of an unnamed 17-year-old boy strapped to a cross . The image of the murdered teenager appeared on a social media account of an activist group known as Raqqa is Being Slaughtered Silently. The group is made up of a handful of incredibly brave individuals who oppose ISIS and - despite the city being the group's de facto, the centre of its leadership and full of bloodthirsty religious police - attempt to document the violence the terrorists group has brought to their hometown. The image has been circulated on Twitter both by anti-ISIS campaigners and by ISIS supporters, who sickeningly trumpet it as a positive example of the group's brutal interpretation of Islam. Charlie Winter, programs officer at counter-extremism think tank the Quilliam Foundation, said crucifixion is a prescribed punishment meted out by Isis for specific crimes. 'Crucifixion has been used many times before – it's an age-old punishment dealt out to people who have committed treason,' he told The Independent. Horror: Raqqa's central square has been bathed in blood since the terror group fully seized control of the city earlier in the year . The Islamic State's use of crucifixion as a punishment stems from its fundamentalist interpretation of Verse 33 of the fifth book of the Koran. The verse reads: 'Indeed, the penalty for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and strive upon earth [to cause] corruption is none but that they be killed or crucified or that their hands and feet be cut off from opposite sides or that they be exiled from the land.' 'That is for them a disgrace in this world; and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment.' Despite this, ISIS chooses to ignore the next passage which emphasises forgiveness and removes the imperative to use such a punishment, saying: 'Except for those who return [repenting] before you apprehend them. And know that Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.' Raqqa's central square has been bathed in blood since the terror group fully seized control of the city earlier in the year. Severed heads are regularly displayed impaled on spikes surrounding a small patch of grass in the square, and there are a number of wooden and metal crosses standing ready for the next execution. Islamic State militants have publicly beheaded two of their own fighters after they were accused of 'banditry' and spying on behalf of the Syrian government. The executions took place in the Syrian city of Al-Bukamal after the two men were arrested by members of the terror group's police force and brought before a Sharia law court. One of the men was successfully tried on charges of 'banditry and robbing Muslims' money', while the second man was convicted of 'spying and embezzlement', with both being sentenced to being beheaded in the centre of Al-Bukamal, which is on the Euphrates River near the border with Iraq. Terrorists: Islamic State militants have publicly executed two of their own fighters after they were accused of 'banditry' and spying on behalf of the Syrian government . News of the executions came from the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a British-based group monitoring violence in Syria using sources on the ground. The first man, they said, was convicted of 'banditry and robbing Muslims' money' - a charge likely to have been linked to the practice of money lending or usury. The second militants was accused of 'dealing with the regime and throwing electronic chips to keep track of Mujahedeen,' according to the Observatory. The use of the phrase 'electronic chips' is understood to refer to small geolocation devices that can be hidden inside ISIS-held buildings or vehicles belonging to senior militants. The devices can then provide Syrian regime warplanes with detailed information on which to base a bombing raid." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Images shows the unnamed teenager being crucified in central Raqqa .\nSign around his neck accuses him of apostasy - abandoning his religion .\nSays he had been paid 500 Turkish lira for photographs of military bases .\nImage shared on Twitter by group of brave anti-ISIS activists called 'Raqqa is Being Slaughtered Silently' who operate inside group's de facto capital ." } ]

It’s too early to know what happens next. Emotions are raw, and the uncertainty over the dates for the Australia-India series reflected the sense that the sport had to go on – though no one could really say quite how, where or when. Playing cricket feels like an utterly inadequate response to the death of Phillip Hughes. But it also feels like the only response. There are no answers lurking within the next batch of runs or wickets. Perhaps there is a little solace.

A cricket bat with the message 'R.I.P. Phil' and with green and gold ribbons attached hangs by a sports field . Cricket has stared deep into its own soul these past few days and been confused by what it has seen. Are helmets safe? Should we ban the bouncer? How can an innings end like this? The idea that reality has intruded on the idyll has been disquieting – though there has rarely been anything idyllic about standing 20 yards away from a man hurling a hard ball at you. As if to remind us that cricket can be perilous, the Hughes tragedy was followed quickly by the death of Hillel Oscar, an Israeli umpire who was struck in the neck out in the middle. Truly, the cosmos is in a dark mood. For more musings on England’s tour of Sri Lanka and other matters cricketing, please follow us on Twitter @the_topspin. What can cricket do, if it can do anything at all? It can accept, finally, that it is only a game, not a higher calling, not a test of manhood, not a cookie jar for the spivs and the suits. It can cling on to, and bottle, the sense of togetherness that might just have helped those who knew Hughes best make some sense of their loss. Without realising it, we may even have stumbled across a convincing definition of cricket’s fabled spirit. Though cricket told itself otherwise, it never was a question of whether a bowler runs out a batsman for backing up too far, or a fielder claims a catch on the bounce. Alastair Cook (right) put the game of cricket into perspective following the death of Hughes (left) Australia captain Michael Clarke wept at a press conference in Sydney when talking about his good friend . It was always about the sense of community, from Manchester via Multan to Macksville. Even as cricket sheds tears, it has grown stronger. Above all, it can help us to be kinder. When Pakistan’s Asad Shafiq was dismissed for a carefree but futile 137 on the final afternoon of the Sharjah Test on Sunday, New Zealand’s Kane Williamson ran 30 or 40 yards to shake his hand. Throughout that Test, wickets and hundreds inspired only muted celebrations. The tragic context should not distract us from the gut feeling that cricket is a better sport when it is played like this. Mutual respect can extend beyond the days of grief. Pakistan batsman Asad Shafiq hit a brilliant 137 against New Zealand in a timely reminder of cricket's spirit . A teacher watches children play cricket at the Macksville Adventist School on Tuesday . Here in Sri Lanka, we’re all doing our best to get worked up about another one-day blowout by England, but hearts are not in it. To judge from his demeanour about the place, Alastair Cook – an old hand at smiling politely in the face of vitriol – is being true to the words he spoke ahead of last Saturday’s game in Colombo. Talking on the morning after Hughes’s death, Cook said: ‘What’s happened in the last three days has certainly clarified in my mind that’s it just a game of sport. We are incredibly lucky to play the game. But it’s just a game of sport. We have a massive responsibility to play it the right way.’ Cook shouldn’t be in England’s one-day team, let alone captaining it. But he’s got his priorities right, and it’s hard not to like him for that. (Incidentally, it has been suggested that Cook used Hughes’s death as some kind of excuse for England’s performance on Saturday. He absolutely did not.) Cricket’s task, too, is to get its priorities right. It doesn’t matter enough for grown men to be snarling at each other, but it does matter enough for our administrators to get their act together. The sport needs cherishing and protecting, and it ought to start immediately. Phillip Hughes is no more. But his legacy can last for ever. THAT WAS THE WEEK THAT WAS . All hail the Kiwis… . Brendon McCullum said he felt 'pretty empty' after steering New Zealand to a famous win in Sharjah over the weekend: events elsewhere had put the third Test against Pakistan into its proper perspective. But no-one would begrudge him some quiet satisfaction about the progress his side have made. Their 1-1 draw in the UAE – in a country where both England and Australia have been thrashed – means New Zealand are unbeaten in five Test series stretching back to their loss in England in 2013. Almost as startling, they are now only a couple of points away from relegating India to seventh in the ICC rankings. Compare and contrast the raw cricketing materials at the disposal of those two nations, and you get sense of New Zealand’s achievement. They have become one of the most watchable sides in the game. The brilliant Brendon McCullum bats during New Zeland's victory against Pakistan in the UAE . … and their captain . A fair chunk of this is down to McCullum himself. This year alone, he has compiled Test scores of 224, 302 (both against India) and 202. He has done it while shifting between the middle order and the opener’s role, and while reinventing himself as a cover fielder. Gloriously, his fourth-best Test score in 2014 is 45. It may just be the most ruthless conversion-rate in history. Nothing to see here: Pt XXVIII . As the lawyers of ICC chairman N Srinivasan continue to fight for their client’s reputation in India’s Supreme Court, it was instructive to learn of Srini’s thoughts on the investigation into corruption at the 2013 IPL and the inner workings of Indian cricket. Asked if he felt this long-running fiasco had affected the image of the sport in India, the man formerly known as the president of the BCCI is reported to have said: ‘I don’t agree that Indian cricket is taking a hit, I am not able to share your sentiments on that.’ What, one wonders, constitutes a ‘hit’ in the weird and wonderful world of Narayanaswami Srinivasan? RIP Phillip Hughes . I only interviewed him once, on a quiet morning at The Oval in 2009, the day after he had made 195 for Middlesex against Surrey in the Championship. The game was still going on, and later that day Hughes would hit 57 off 46 balls. Middlesex finished nine down and two runs short of their target of 186 in 25 overs. He was the talk of the town. Phillip Hughes celebrated an outstanding century for Middlesex against Surrey at The Oval in 2009 . Hughes didn’t have to turn up early to chat to a journalist he’d never met, especially in the middle of a game. But he was there at the appointed time. English cricketers can be guilty of over-analysis. It struck me there was little danger of Hughes doing the same. ‘There’s been a fair bit of talk about my technique, but I just want to stick to my own gameplan,’ he said, as if the alternative would have been an affront. ‘It’s how I play. Everyone has their own style and that’s something I just want to keep going. Sure, bowlers will have their plans, but you can look at it in two different ways: I have my plans too. We’ll just go from there.’ In five innings for Middlesex that summer before he joined the Ashes tour, Hughes scored 574 runs at an average of 143. People were scoffing at his technique, but he did it his way and appeared to love every minute. There’s a lesson in there somewhere." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Phillip Hughes died after being struck by a bouncer one week ago .\nAustralia and India series has been delayed with Hughes' funeral this week .\nTragedy should remind everyone of the true spirit of cricket .\nEngland captain Alastair Cook best summed up the right attitude .\nAdministrators must get their act together and protect the game ." } ]

The abbey ruins in the distance were bathed in the setting sun and the stony heath where he stood with his easel was lush with the green of twisted holly oaks. If only Vincent Van Gogh had been happy enough with his painting that day to have signed it. But the grand Dutch master never liked the result of this particular excursion to the French countryside, and never put his name to it. Return of the vanished Van Gogh: Museum director Axel Ruger described the discovery as a 'once-in-a-lifetime experience' at an unveiling of the masterpiece . 'Sunset at Montmajour': It is the first full-size canvas by the Dutch master discovered since 1928. The museum said the painting belongs to an unidentified private collector and will be on display at the museum from September 24 . Yesterday – after being branded a fake, . dumped in an attic and hidden from public view for more than a century – . the oil on canvas was finally hailed as a masterpiece. Researchers . linked ‘Sunset at Montmajour’  to Van Gogh’s hand-written musings about . what he did that day in the summer of 1888 – and used 21st century . technology to confirm the painting’s authenticity. Now . the long-lost work is to go on show as the first full-size Van Gogh to . emerge for 85 years. If it is ever offered for sale it is likely to . attract bids in the tens of millions. The . landscape was painted on July 4, 1888, and mentioned the next day in a . letter the artist wrote to his brother Theo.

Gogh, who struggled with bouts of mental illness, was often highly . critical of his own work, including some of his most famous, such as . ‘Starry Night’, which he painted the following year. After . he died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound in 1890, ‘Sunset…’ was . listed by number in Theo’s collection. It was bought about 20 years . later by Norwegian industrialist Christian Mustad. But Mustad appears to . have been told it was a forgery, or at least wrongly attributed – so he . banished it to the attic. Van Gogh Museum director Axel Ruger, left, and senior researcher Louis van Tilborgh, right, unveiled the newly discovered 'Sunset at Montmajour' by Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh during a press conference at the museum in Amsterdam, today . First public viewing: Members of the press got their first glimpse of the newest Van Gogh discovery - a scene from near the artist's home at the time in Arles, France . In . 1991, the anonymous owners of the painting contacted the Van Gogh . Museum in Amsterdam for its opinion - but experts rejected it, partly . because it was unsigned. Yesterday the same museum announced that an intensive, two-year investigation . had concluded it was genuine after all. Chemical analysis of paint . pigments showed them to be identical to those Van Gogh used, and x-ray . examination of the canvas matched it to other paintings he did the same . month. Unveiling . the privately-owned work before it goes on show for a year, museum . director Axel Rueger described the discovery as ‘a once in a lifetime . experience’. It was a . painting from a time that many considered to be ‘the culmination of his . achievement’, he said. In the same period while living in in Arles, . Provence, he painted ‘The Yellow House’, ‘The Bedroom’ and many of his . most famous ‘Sunflowers’ series. Van .

In . 1987, ‘Vase With Fifteen Sunflowers’ sold for nearly £25million. When . he painted that one, however, he took the trouble to sign it. A world of brilliant colour: Van Gogh painted this self-portrait in 1887 . Vincent Van Gogh was a Dutch post-impressionist painter whose work is most renowned for its bold colours, strong and heavy brush strokes and rough beauty. In his youth he worked as an art dealer in London, Paris and the Hague. He was also a teacher in England and later he worked as a missionary in Belgium, where he would sketch people from the mining community. From a young age, Van Gogh showed a flare for drawing but it wasn't until he was in his late 20s that he began painting professionally. His first major work was completed in 1885, titled 'The Potato Eaters'. A year later he moved to Paris and lived with his brother Theo, where he became immersed in the world of the French impressionists. He met and mingled with other like-minded artists at Cormon's studio, including British-Australian artist John Peter Russell, Émile Bernard, Louis Anquetin, and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. Towards the end of his time in Paris, he becamse friends with Peter Gauguin, who was new to the city and soon after, Van Gogh organised a joint exhibition with Gaugiun and others at an exclusive new resaurant. Works by Van Gogh, Gauguin, Bernard, Anquetin, and probably Toulouse-Lautrec all featured at the Grand-Bouillon Restaurant du Chalet, in Montmartre. Bernard wrote of the event: 'On the avenue de Clichy a new restaurant was opened. Vincent used to eat there. He proposed to the manager that an exhibition be held there .... Canvases by Anquetin, by Lautrec, by Koning ...filled the hall.... 'It really had the impact of something new; it was more modern than anything that was made in Paris at that moment' After a two-year stint in the city, Van Gogh moved to the south of France where, surrounded by vibrant colours and beautiful light his palette took on a more vivid shade. It was during his stay in Arles, in the south west of the country, from 1888-1889, that his most recognisable style was developed. Sunflowers became the subject matter synonymous with Van Gogh . He frequently painted self portraits, landscapes and still lifes. But perhaps his most famous subject matter were sunflowers in a vase. In preparation for a visit from his friend Gauguin, Van Gogh painted a new sunflowers piece especially. He wanted the two to live and work together. The Frenchman stayed several months but their relationship deteriorated. Van Gogh found Gauguin dominating and felt frustrated he was not treated like an equal. After an argument, Van Gogh stormed out to a brothel with a razor blade and sliced off part of his ear. While in hospital, Gauguin returned to Paris. In the last months of his life, the artists grew increasingly troubled and by early 1890, was struggling to work. He had been plagued by mental health problems throughout his life and suffered agonising depression, loneliness and self-doubt as well as episodes of hallucination. At the age of 37, Van Gogh is believed to have shot himself in the chest. Experts still speculate over the incident as the gun, a revolver, was never found. However, the wound was to prove fatal and the artist died with his beloved brother Theo at his side. Van Gogh had created more than 2,100 artworks in his short life but had only sold one painting. In the wake of his death, interest exploded. Memorial shows were held around the world and his work exchanged hands for vast sums of money. He is now recognised as one of the greatest artists of all time and his paintings sell for millions." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "'Sunset at Montmajour' was previously rejected as a fake because it does not have a signature .\nDutch Van Gogh Museum now says evidence from letters, its style and materials prove it's an original .\nPainting came from a Norwegian man who kept it in his loft because he did not think it was authentic ." } ]

The DNA comes from an anatomically modern man who roamed Western Siberia 45,000 years ago. It provides experts with a more accurate timeline of when modern humans mated with their Neanderthal cousins as they moved from Africa into Europe, between 50,000 and 60,000 years ago. Scientists have sequenced the oldest complete human genome. The DNA comes from an anatomically modern man who roamed Western Siberia 45,000 years ago. His remains were fund near the settlement of Ust’-Ishim in western Siberia in 2008. A view of the river Irtysh and the village is pictured . The male lived around the time the populations of Europe and Asia divided. His remains were found near the small village of Ust’-Ishim in western Siberia in 2008 when an ivory hunter looking for mammoth tusks stumbled across the bones on the banks of the River Irtysh. They are believed to represent the oldest radiocarbon-dated modern human outside Africa and the Middle East, according to the study in Nature. Dr Janet Kelso, of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany, retrieved DNA from the man’s thighbone. By studying the make-up of the man's DNA, scientists discovered that the male lived around the time the populations of Europe and Asia divided. A map of Pleistocene fossils showing nuclear DNA is pictured. The orange dots indicate Neanderthals, blue Denisovans and green, modern humans . The relatively complete human femur was discovered on the banks of the river Irtysh near the village of Ust’-Ishim in western Siberia in 2008. Radiocarbon dating of the bone showed it to be about 45,000 years old. ‘The morphology of the bone suggests that it is an early modern human; that is an individual related to populations that are the direct ancestors of people alive today’ said Bence Viola, the anthropologist who analysed it.. ‘This individual is one of the oldest modern humans found outside the Middle East and Africa.' Together with colleagues, she then sequenced and analysed the genome of the individual and found he had a similar level of Neanderthal ancestry as contemporary East Asians and Europeans. Their study, led by Svante Pääbo, suggests that Neanderthal genes flowed into his ancestors 7,000 to 13,000 years before he lived. Experts previously thought that interbreeding between anatomically modern humans and Neanderthals occurred anywhere between 37,000 and 86,000 years ago. The new study narrows down this huge window of opportunity to between 50,000 and 60,000 years ago, which coincides with the expansion of modern humans into Europe, and possibly Asia. This was decided by studying the segments of Neanderthal DNA in his genome, which were much longer than the ones found in present-day humans. More complex than a simple march of progress: The study suggests that interbreeding between anatomically modern humans (illustrated right) and Neanderthals occurred between 50,000 and 60,000 years ago, coinciding with the expansion of modern humans into Europe . ‘We present the high-quality genome sequence of a 45,000 year-old modern human male from Siberia,’ Dr Kelso said. ‘This individual derives from a population that lived before - or simultaneously with - the separation of the populations in western and eastern Eurasia and carries a similar amount of Neanderthal ancestry as present-day Eurasians.’ Chemical ratios in the bone indicated the man would have lived on berries, nuts, vegetables, meat and fish. She added: ‘Interestingly the Ust-Ushim individual probably lived during a warm period that has been proposed to be a time of expansion of modern humans into Europe.’ Scientists sequenced the oldest complete human genome from a thigh bone of an anatomically modern male, found to be 45,000 years old. They compared it to the genomes of present-day humans from more than 50 populations. They found that the Ust’-Ishim bone comes from a male individual who is more related to present-day people outside Africa than to Africans, showing that he is an early representative of the modern population that left Africa.

Svante Pääbo explained: ‘The population to which the Ust’-Ishim individual belonged may have split from the ancestors of present-day West Eurasian and East Eurasian populations before, or at about the same time, when these two first split from each other. ‘It is very satisfying that we now have a good genome not only from Neanderthals and Denisovans, but also from a very early modern human.’ Paleoanthropologist Jean-Jacques Hublin, who was involved in the study, said: ‘It is possible that the Ust’-Ishim individual belonged to a population of early migrants into Europe and Central Asia, who failed to leave descendants among present-day populations’.

Arsene Wenger's future as Gunners boss looks to be secure despite growing unrest amongst a section of the Arsenal faithful which has even led to Henry being linked with a management role at his beloved club. We asked JustArsenal fansite's Bob Allcock whether the club's leading scorer should make a return to the Emirates. Thierry Henry, pictured celebrating scoring in January 2012, admitted he would love to return to Arsenal . Henry has announced his departure from Major League Soccer club New York Red Bulls . 1994-1999: Monaco (105 lg apps, 20 gls) 1999-1999: Juventus (16, 3) 1999-2007: Arsenal (254, 174) 2007-2010: Barcelona (80, 35) 2010-2014: New York Red Bulls (122, 51) 2012-2012: Arsenal (loan) (4, 1) 1997-2010: France (123, 51) Monaco: Ligue 1, Trophee des champions . Arsenal: Premier League (2), FA Cup (3), Community Shield (2) Barcelona: La Liga (2), Copa del Rey, Supercopa de Espana, Champions League, Super Cup, Club World Cup . New York Red Bulls: MLS Eastern Conference (2), Supporters' Shield . France: 1998 World Cup, Euro 2000, Confederations Cup 2003 . It has not happened yet, but after Thierry Henry announced the end of his playing career with New York Red Bulls this week, the flying Frenchman dropped a huge hint that he would like to come back to work with the Gunners and his mentor Arsene Wenger again. This is fantastic news for Arsenal fans. We still hold Henry in our hearts as one of the greatest Gunners ever. Unlike some players, there is no animosity at all about his decision to leave. At the time there was some doubt about the manager’s future as David Dein had left but it was clear when he came back on loan in 2012 that he was still loved unanimously by the Arsenal fans. His winning goal in an FA Cup game against Leeds in his first game back was one of the best moments I can remember. And of course his 30 Premier League goals that spearheaded the Gunners’ famous 'invincible' season will always be one of the greatest achievements of any player and club anywhere. Little wonder Henry is one of only three players, with Tony Adams and Dennis Bergkamp, to have a statue outside the ground. Arsene Wenger believes Henry will make a return to Arsenal in the future . It was not just his success on the pitch. The success he helped Arsenal achieve in his eight seasons with us makes him so loved by Gooners. The way Henry played, with style, panache, pace, verve and Va Va Voom, epitomises the football that we have become famous for under Wenger. Henry was a true entertainer and was worth the ticket price on his own. At the same time as he called time on his time with the MLS club, which almost certainly means the end of his playing days, the 37-year old changed the picture on his Twitter page to one of the Emirates Stadium. Henry won two Premier League titles and three FA Cups during his time in north London . Henry changed his cover photo on Twitter to an image of the Emirates following his announcement . So while our all-time record goal scorer takes a few weeks to consider his options and think about what to do now, it seems clear that a return to north London is in the forefront of his mind. We already knew that Arsenal was the club in Henry’s heart, as he has made no secret of it since moving to Barcelona back in 2007. And Wenger has also stated that he expects Henry to come back to Arsenal one day, although he also said that our former star needs to have a real job at the club instead of being merely a figurehead. Henry spreads his arms wide and celebrates to the Arsenal fans after scoring against Inter Milan . That would definitely suit the fans, who would love to see Henry working with either the first team or the academy players. Not only does he have an obvious passion for the Gunners, his career shows that he loves the game and with his intelligence, that would surely make him a fantastic coach and role model. Whether Henry has it in him to one day become a top class manager remains to be seen, but the idea of Wenger’s greatest success as a coach taking his place in charge of Arsenal one day is a dream situation for us Gooners.

Mel Reynolds was arrested Monday in Zimbabwe after police learned that he was making pornographic films in hotels where he had accumulated $24,500 in unpaid bills, and that he had overstayed his visa by two months. A former Reynolds assistant told the state-controlled newspaper The Herald that the Democratic pol had been paying a model and several other girls to produce his pornos. 'His travel documents were not up to date and he used to bring beautiful women at different times,' said the former employee, identified only as Sunny. 'He employed five of us including a personal assistant and a driver.' The Herald also reported that Reynolds had made more than 100 dirty movies and shot some 1,000 nude photos of at least 10 women. Mere possession of pornographic material is a crime in Zimbabwe. Zimbabwean immigration officials say former Democratic Congressman Mel Reynolds has been arrested for allegedly possessing pornographic material that he produced, and for violating immigration laws . The Bronte Garden Hotel in Harare, Zimbabwe was the site of Reynolds' arrest and one of the places where he allegedly made his dirty movies . Reynolds created a media frenzy in 1995 when he was charged with having sex with an underage campaign worker, asking her to obtain child pornography for him, and then having her sign false affidavits recanting the accusations . Reynolds, once a Rhodes scholar and a close confidante of Rev. Jesse Jackson, resigned in disgrace after two years in Congress when he was convicted of 12 counts of statutory rape, solicitation of child pornography and obstruction of justice. He was found guilty in 1995 of having sex with a 16-year-old campaign worker. Police ran a sting against the congressman when his mistress, who was too young to vote, told her next-door neighbor about the sexual relationship. That neighbor was a Chicago police officer. In later taped phone conversations, the teen promised him a three-way sex romp with a 15-year-old Catholic schoolgirl. 'Did I win the Lotto?' Reynolds was heard exclaiming on tape. While serving a five-year prison sentence, the disgraced Reynolds was convicted on unrelated bank fraud charges in 1997, including lying to Securities and Exchange Commission investigators. He received another six and a half years, but President Bill Clinton later commuted his sentence when he still had three years left to serve. Democrat Jesse Jackson Jr., left, replaced Mel Reynolds in Congress and then won 88 per cent of the vote when Reynolds challenged him after his release from prison. But Jackson Jr., the son of Rev. Jesse Jackson (R), went to prison in 2013 for using campaign donations to fund his lavish lifestyle . Harare, Zimbabwe has struggled since the nation's currency collapsed in 2008 following an absurd inflation rate of 230 million per cent. The country now has no national currency, and is just beginning to bring in foreign capital, an opportunity Reynolds appears to have grabbed with a group of hotel investors . Reynolds tried to return to Congress in 2004, losing in a landslide to Jesse Jackson Jr. – the man who had replaced him in a special election. Jackson Jr. would go to prison himself in 2013 for skimming campaign donations to fund a lavish lifestyle. Jackson, the son of Rev. Jesse Jackson, was a national co-chair of Barack Obama's first presidential campaign in 2008. It was Reynolds' trysts with the 16-year-old campaign aide that opened up Barack Obama's first opportunity to enter politics. Following the Congressman's indictment, state Senator Alice Palmer leaped forward to challenge him in a Democratic primary. Obama immediately put his name forward to win the open state legislative post, starting his meteoric rise to the White House. A friend from Obama's community organizing days had been Palmer's campaign manager, and made an introduction. Small world: Law professor Barack Obama began his political life when an Illinois state senator left her seat open by running to replace Reynolds after his resignation from Congress . Reynolds complained Monday that the immigration police who arrested him refused him access to the U.S. Embassy. 'They denied me my passport so that I can contact the United States Embassy which is a violation of international laws,' he said. 'It's the way it is,' Reynolds added, defending himself and suggesting that he was the victim of a scheme to embarrass him. 'I have been in this country 17 times where I have done a lot of work for the people including the fight against sanctions,' he insisted. But a source told The Herald that Reynolds had received a 14-day visa on November 13, 2013. He renewed it, said the source, but it expired again on December 10: 'He has been in the country illegally all along.' Some of Reynolds work in Zimbabwe includes work as a middle-man for investors who bankrolled a $145 million Hilton hotel and a related office complex that is scheduled to begin construction in April." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Mel Reynolds was allegedly in the country illegally since December, making pornographic films in hotel rooms with at least 10 models .\nHe reportedly racked up $24,500 in unpaid hotel bills .\nReynolds went to prison in the 1990s for the statutory rape of a 16-year-old campaign volunteer, and for bank fraud .\nHis resignation from Congress opened up Barack Obama's first political opportunity, when a state senator stepped forward to run for the seat .\nReynolds claimed Monday that Zimbabwe's immigration police refused to give him his passport so he could contact the U.S. Embassy in Harare ." } ]

He helps with training sessions and he is very, very important for me.' That led to Tuesday’s surprise news that the popular former Boro midfielder – who was not with Karanka and his backroom team at Sunday’s North East Football Writers’ Awards - would be leaving his position with immediate effect. A club statement read: ‘Following discussions between Craig, head coach Aitor Karanka, and the club, all parties have agreed for Craig to leave his position with immediate effect. ‘The club would like to place on record its thanks for Craig’s efforts since joining us from Hartlepool last season and wish him all the best for the future.’ Karanka was furious that Clattenburg allowed Rudy Gestede’s last-gasp leveller to stand after what appeared a blatant foul on goalkeeper Dimi Konstantopoulos by Chris Brown. Afterwards, the former Real Madrid defender said: ‘I don't know if I can say everything I am thinking I might have a problem (with the authorities). Hignett has left his job as Middlesbrough assistant manager with immediate effect . Hignett had been working as No 2 to former Real Madrid assistant manager Karanka (centre) ‘The first thing I want to do is apologise for my behaviour because my behaviour has been bad and Middlesbrough Football Club doesn't deserve my behaviour, so I want to apologise, but I am going to fight for this club to the last second and put in 100 per cent myself every day. ‘But it was a moment that I was very frustrated because when you are working, when you are fighting for 93, 94 minutes and you have your objective in your hand. ‘It's amazing, I can't believe my keeper is on the treatment table.

Once again Balotelli found himself commanding headlines for all the wrong reasons following Liverpool’s 3-0 defeat by Real Madrid, given he had swapped shirts with opposition defender Pepe as he left the field at half-time. It was a naive thing to do and Rodgers stressed that, having spoken to Balotelli in his office at Liverpool’s Melwood training base, the ‘matter was closed’ and had been dealt with internally. Mario Balotelli was back in training for Liverpool on Thursday after he controversially swapped shirts with Pepe . The Italian's future is the matter of intense scrutiny after he was hooked at half-time in Liverpool's defeat . Balotelli battles for the ball with Jordan Williams as Liverpool turn their attentions back to the Premier League . GRAEME SOUNESS . There has been criticism from day one. It was a brave move by Brendan Rodgers. He obviously felt his managerial skills could stop the problem. It’s not worked for him or the club. This is his last chance at a big club in one of the big leagues and now he’s looking at Russia or somewhere like that. IAN RUSH . He still has a future at Liverpool. The fans are some of the most patient but he has to realise he’s not playing at just any other club. He’s got to show his commitment by proving it on the pitch. You just don’t do what he did and I’m sure Brendan Rodgers will have a word with him behind closed doors. GARY LINEKER . On the Balotelli shirt-swapping furore: I doubt they’re having the same debate in Spain re Pepe. All is fine when you win. Can’t see the negative in half-time shirt swap. Does it affect the result? No. JOEY BARTON . Balotelli getting a lot of criticism which is never going to help. What he needs is to get his head down and prove people wrong. DIETMAR HAMANN . I think he would have angered Brendan Rodgers when he came into the dressing room wearing a Real Madrid shirt. I think Brendan had every reason to take him off, especially at 3-0 down. I think he did it on purpose. I think it was kind of premeditated. He doesn’t care. MICHAEL OWEN . I’d still start Balotelli at the weekend. I’m not a big fan of his but he has more class than most. Harsh to put all the blame on him. Most worrying thing is his team-mates’ body language towards him. Once you lose their respect it’s a struggle. JOHN HARTSON . If Liverpool were winning 3-0 at half-time, with Mario scoring two goals, there would be nothing said. Losing 3-0, playing poorly then slam Mario. I don’t agree with what he did but I also think he’s an easy target. Scapegoat springs to mind. But as the dust settled on the incident, the focus shifted to the more important matter of how he played against Madrid and the way he has performed since joining Liverpool in August and what he has done to justify a £16million transfer fee. With only one goal in 10 appearances, patience is wearing thin as Balotelli has not provided Liverpool with a focal point and his form has been so underwhelming that Rodgers would not offer any guarantees about how long the 24-year-old may stay on Merseyside. Balotelli signed a three-year deal when he arrived from AC Milan and while Rodgers insists he takes ‘full responsibility’ for the decision to bring him back to the Barclays Premier League, Liverpool’s manager will not be so stubborn that he persists with him if the experiment cannot work. Rodgers said: ‘The manager always will be — and I certainly am — responsible for every player that comes in. So you don’t need to look too far. You can’t label it on me, so there is no problem there. I think it’s one which is very clear with the owners and the conversations we had. ‘We knew what we were getting. I said before this was a calculated risk to bring someone in and nothing has changed. I haven’t been overly surprised by many things. As I said, we took in a young player who has football potential. ‘Were we going to get that focus and concentration that is required to play consistently at the top the level? That is something that remains to be seen. And something that only time will tell. At this moment in time, he’s working hard to show he can deliver that.’ He added: ‘Whether Mario’s best is good enough longer term, that remains to be seen. He wants to score but, at the minute, he is not. When you are confident, you have more success. He is treated no different to any other player.’ It should be noted at this point that Balotelli — for all the noise that accompanies him — has not been a disruptive presence around the training ground and his behaviour has not been as madcap as it was when he was setting fireworks off in his bathroom during his spell with Manchester City. When he arrived at the club, Balotelli was told what standards were expected of him but Rodgers will be hoping that his reported brush with the law is not the point at which things start to unravel for Baloteli at Anfield. The Liverpool striker walks towards the tunnel at half-time of Liverpool's game against Real Madrid . With his side trailing 3-0, Balotelli turns to Real Madrid defender Pepe before taking off his Liverpool top . The £16million signing then gives his shirt to the Real defender prompting outrage among the club's fans . 1. Stiffen Liverpool’s defence. One clean sheet in 18 matches and 19 goals conceded in 12 games is a dreadful return. 2. Sort out the goalkeeper. Between the sticks, Simon Mignolet has regressed in 2014 and looks bereft of confidence. His anxiety is spreading. 3. Where are the goals? Even after accounting for losing star striker Luis Suarez, Liverpool’s lack of cutting edge has been dismally apparent. 4. Find a balance. Manager Brendan Rodgers has regularly chopped and changed formations in games to get the right blend. 5 Get the top gun back. Striker Daniel Sturridge’s absence due to injury has dragged on and it is proving increasingly detrimental. On the pitch he is certainly giving Rodgers — who is no closer to welcoming back striker Daniel Sturridge — problems. His play does not have the intensity that Rodgers demands of those he selects and the balance of the team therefore suffers when one part of the system is not functioning. Many would be quick to say ‘we told you so’, as Balotelli could not flourish under managers such as Jose Mourinho, Roberto Mancini and Cesare Prandelli and Rodgers accepts he personally will be susceptible to criticism the Liverpool’s No 45 continues to underwhelm. ‘We brought in the player to give him a chance and give him every chance,’ said Rodgers. ‘At this moment in time, of course, he hasn’t scored the goals we would like or want. We are having to give him that opportunity. We will work with the players that we have and he is one of them. ‘It is not just about improving him. It is about improving all the players. And we will see come January what the team needs. I’m the type of manager that gives people an opportunity. I understand the criticism that will come my way because of that. Balotelli, in action against the Spanish side on Wednesday, has failed to hit the heights since joining from Milan . The former Manchester City striker looked forlorn at Liverpool's Melwood training base on Thursday . ‘Like I said, you accept that as part of being a manager. You’ll take the praise if things go well with a player you are working with. And you have to take the responsibility as a manager too. Either way, I can deal with that. ‘He’s not uncontrollable. He’s certainly not that. He’s an individual talent who is working hard to try to fit into the team ethos here and the team identity. But only time will tell. He is working hard to try and understand what is required of a Liverpool player.’ For all that Balotelli is dominating the agenda, it is not the main issue vexing Rodgers. An inability to keep clean sheets is proving detrimental to their ambitions but, not only that, it was the comfort with which Madrid settled into the game that alarmed the manager. Liverpool looked flimsy — they only gave six fouls away — and two of the three goals they conceded were cheap. ‘I felt we could have been more competitive in certain situations,’ said Rodgers. ‘That is the mark of a champion. The mark of a champion is how you are competitive against the best opponents. It wasn’t through want of trying or work ethic. But it was an area we could have been better in.’ March 2010 .

Beasley admitted to authorities that he had sex multiple times with the girl since Valentine's Day. Sick: The teacher, 25, sent explicit photos to the girl and admitted to kissing her during school hours . He told officers that on three occasions that he engaged in inappropriate behavior during school hours, including kissing during the victim's lunch breaks, according to a police report. The pair also texted each other naked photographs, while Beasley sent the teenager a video of him masturbating, authorities discovered. 'I miss you,' he wrote in one text. 'But we have to remain cautious and vigilant. Every meeting is a risk. l won't let that stop me from seeing you altogether, but we should be cautious about how many risks we take.' In another message, he added: 'I want to feel you. lnside and out. Not want. Need. l require physical intimacy with you. Kissing you feels as essential as breathing.' He was initially freed on $92,000 bond but a judge later ruled he should stay behind bars, saying that he could be a danger to the community. The school, where he was just a second-year teacher, suspended Beasley immediately after he was arrested. He had previously been warned by staff not to spend time alone with the girl after a student and a parent reported their concern over the pair's relationship in December 2013. Administrators said the school had obtained state and federal law enforcement background checks on Beasley before hiring him, as it does before all new hires work with students. Scene: He was arrested after he was found semi-naked in his car behind this strip mall in Florida in April. The duo initially claimed they were both adults and had met online, but the girl later said she was his student . Fired: He was suspended from his job at the Zion Lutheran Christian School following his arrest . His lawyers say he had sincere feelings for the girl and still cares about her, the Sentinel reported. Prosecutors and the girl's parents will recommend that he is sentenced to 20 years behind bars, his lawyer said, but he could also be placed on supervised release for the rest of his life. He will also have to register as a sex offender. The girl's parents have also filed a civil lawsuit against Beasley, the school, church and Evangelical Lutheran church organizations and officials." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Eric Beasley was arrested after he was caught semi-naked with the girl behind a strip mall in Lighthouse Point, Florida in April .\nThey initially claimed to be consenting adults who had met online but the girl later admitted he was her ninth-grade biology teacher .\nHe admitted to having sex with her multiple times over their six-week relationship and to kissing her during school hours .\nThey also texted each other explicit photos .\nHe could serve 20 years in federal prison under the plea deal ." } ]

James scored after 16 minutes with a lob over Cornellà keeper Iñigo Alberto after being set-up by Isco. And the Colombian repaid the favour on 34 minutes with a stunning through ball that Isco scored from. Chicharito Hernandez was desperate to get in on the act in the first half but missed the perfect chance on the half hour when his effort from Fabio Coentrao’s cross was saved. He made amends moments later with a delightful flick on the edge of the area to set up James for goal number three. All this after Madrid had so nearly fallen behind. Captain for the night Alvaro Arbeloa clumsily bundled over Xavi Boniquet but the Cornellà forward picked himself up and blasted the penalty over the bar when the scores were still at 0-0. The Santiago Bernabeu was only a third full for the second leg despite Madrid have drastically dropped prices. Behind the South goal a huge banner read ‘no to violence, no to racism, one sentiment: Madridismo’ in response to the violence that preceded Sunday’s Atletico Madrid Deportivo match leaving one man dead. The rest of the stadium applauded when the banner was unfurled. Also greeted by huge applause was the return of Jese Rodriguez who injured his right knee eight months ago cutting short what was turning into an exception first season that could even have won him a place at last summer’s World Cup. Isco celebrates with James, who set up the goal with a perfectly weighted pass that split the Cornella defence . Javier Hernandez beats the keeper with a shot but the ball rebounds off the bar and bounces in off defender Borja Lopez . Jese Rodriguez returned to action following a nine-month spell on the sidelines and marked the occasion with a goal .

Madrid made it 8-1 on aggregate when Borja Lopez put through his own net after Chicharito’s clever lob came back off the cross-bar – the United man so nearly get the goal he wanted but the last touch was definitely the defender’s. He had another chance shortly afterwards when Jese’s run and cross played him in but he just failed to make contact. Jese got on the scoresheet himself shortly after to mark his comeback in style. It was Isco – who else – who played the pass and the winger converted to celebrate his return after 258 days out of action and make it 9-1 over the two legs." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Real Madrid led third-tier Cornella 4-1 from the first leg of the round of 32 Copa del Rey clash .\nCornella missed a penalty in the 15th minute before James Rodriguez gave the hosts the lead moments later .\nIsco and James added two more goals before half time as Real Madrid strolled towards their 17th consecutive win .\nA Borja Loez own goal made it 4-0 before Jese Rodriguez completed the rout on his first appearance in nine months ." } ]

James has built up crippling debts after breaking up with his wife Tanya in 2005 and is said to have blown his £20million fortune which came from his football wages, endorsements and modelling contracts for companies such as Armani. The 44-year-old played in the Premier League for teams such as Liverpool, Manchester City and Portsmouth and has recently came out of retirement to become a player-manager at Indian Super League side Kerala Blasters. Former Premier League goalkeeper James won the FA Cup with Portsmouth in 2008 . James and his then wife Tanya in 2002 (left) - they divorced in 2005 - and modelling for Armani in 1998 . Until the revelations, no-one inside the James circle was aware of the desperate financial situation that forced him to Hertford County Court. The former England keeper has written a regular column for The Observer and has always donated his fee to charity. He also owned a house in Dubai at the time of a credit crisis, which was part of his seven-strong property portfolio. He has also worked as a pundit for BT Sport. James split up with his wife to rekindle a relationship with childhood sweetheart Amanda Salmon, and they have been together for nearly a decade. He was forced to pay Tanya £3m as part of the divorce settlement. His PR team have refused to comment about the bankruptcy. James has decided to sell around 150 items of signed merchandise through Kent-based auctioneer Hilco. A 1998/1999 multicoloured Port Vale FC goalkeeper shirt - which he would have swapped with former Manchester United trainee Kevin Pilkington - (left) and a signed Frank Lampard shirt is also available to buy . James will auction the pink goalkeeper strip he had previously worn against Chelsea in the 2010 FA Cup final and the yellow England jersey he wore against Germany at the 2010 World Cup . He is also selling a Technics SL-1200 Turntable - this series of music player is no longer manufactured . A petrol driven chainsaw is also up for grabs as James auctions off many of his possessions . The public will be able to bid for items, which range from football memorabilia to DJ equipment and toys, from November 6 to 18. A signed Frank Lampard shirt, a bright pink Portsmouth goalkeeper top, a Malawi shirt and a NFL jersey are among the 150 items.

James, who made 53 appearances for England between 1997 and 2010, won two major honours during his spell in England - the 1995 League Cup with Liverpool and the 2008 FA Cup with Portsmouth before moving to Iceland to join IBV. Former team-mate Stan Collymore, who played with James at Liverpool, said the goalkeeper had a tendency to throw away his money as if he'd be earning it forever. Collymore said in his 2004 autobiography: 'If he had a new car and he pranged it, he would just go and buy a new car. 'If he bought a new pair of shoes and he scuffed them, he wouldn't clean them. He would just chuck them in the spare room and buy a new pair. 'Too much disposable income, I suppose. Too easy just to bin stuff. Too easy to spend money like you're going to be earning that kind of money for the rest of your life.' One item not included in the auction is the infamous white - or cream, depending on who you ask - suit worn by James and his Liverpool team-mates on the Wembley pitch before the 1996 FA Cup final. They came to sum up Liverpool's 'Spice Boys' and James lamented that the suits became more memorable than the match itself, which was won 1-0 by opponents Manchester United. The Armani suits were the goalkeeper's choice as he was modelling with the firm at the time. His former Liverpool team-mate Robbie Fowler told the Independent in 2008: 'It was David James's idea. 'At the time, he was an Armani model. If we had won, nobody would have mentioned it. But we lost and it has become infamous. People remind me about them all the time.' We can only wonder what the suit might fetch were it included in the auction. James and Phil Babb (right) on the pitch wearing the infamous 'white' Armani suits in 1996 .

The visiting bench were debating substitutions as the 73rd-minute free kick was being prepared, and Rooney’s No 10 appeared briefly on the fourth official’s board before the England captain stepped up to score the winning goal. Rickie Lambert was preparing to come on and the England manager claimed later that it was a straight choice between Rooney and Danny Welbeck, both of whom had missed chances, and that the final decision had not been made. Scroll down to read transcript of Roy Hodgson's post-match interview with ITV . Rickie Lambert prepares to come on for England as Roy Hodgson seeks to break the deadlock . But just as the Liverpool is about to come on, Wayne Rooney scores a free-kick, and Lambert is sent back . Shortly after the goal, Welbeck rolled his ankle and was replaced by Lambert on 80 minutes before heading into the dressing room for treatment. Hodgson said: ‘We wanted to get Rickie on because he’s a goalscorer and we hadn’t been taking our goal chances so when you have someone like Rickie, who you know has a goal in him, we wanted him on the field. ‘So it was really was a question of which one we take off, as they had both missed their chances. Neither of the strikers could have been too critical of me if I had chosen him. 'We were umming and aahing about which of the two front players to take off and when Danny turned his ankle, there was of course no question.' When being interviewed by ITV, Hodgson was then told that their touchline reporters had seen the paperwork indicating that Rooney’s number, No 10, was the player to come off but the manager claimed he had no knowledge of that. ‘We were still considering it, as far as I know,’ said Hodgson. ‘To be fair, as I was in discussion, I don't know about forms going in so no doubt you're going to produce some evidence but certainly it wasn't my intention.’ Lambert grins as he walks back to his seat, the 32-year-old appears to see the funny side of the situation . The former Southampton man has three goals in 10 appearances for England, but will have to wait for more . Rooney, who moved to one behind Jimmy Greaves on the England all-time scorers list with his 43rd goal for his country, looked surprised when told that he was about to come off before the free-kick. ‘That's football,’ he said. ‘I think I've shown over the years I'm always capable of scoring goals.’ Rooney might have had a hat-trick, missing excellent chances on 18 minutes and just before full-time when clean through on goal but said: ‘We knew before the game, having obviously faced teams like this before, that they're tough games. 'It's difficult to break them down, and tonight it was. Thankfully, we got the goal and saw them out. It was a tough game and a good win. It was close but I was just focussing on trying to get it up and over the wall as quick as I could.’ Rooney's fortuitous goal was initially saved by the keeper but it then rebounded off the post and in . England's captain celebrates with Leighton Baines after scoring what turned out to be the winning goal . Hodgson claimed the missed chances meant that Rooney would be content with his overall performance. ‘Wayne is very self-critical,’ said Hodgson. ‘He is delighted of course, to score the winning goal but he knows he and his fellow forwards could have had so many more. 'We knew it wouldn’t be a piece of cake to come here and win the game. I perhaps didn’t expect us to dominate it as much as we did from the offset. It was harder than should have been because created so many opportunities in the first half particularly.’ Welbeck received treatment on Sunday night on his ankle but there was more hopeful news for Arsene Wenger, whose injury list at Arsenal is growing, when Hodgson said: 'I don’t think he’s injured. I think he just rolled it slightly but the doctors are not concerned about it all.' Hodgson looks contemplative in the middle of the pitch in Tallinn as England fans put up their flags behind him . ITV: Can you just explain, you might have got a break tonight, because you'd put in (a request) for Wayne Rooney to come off? RH: 'No no no. We were going to put Rickie Lambert on and we were discussing which player to take off. 'We hadn't made up our mind if it was going to be Wayne Rooney or, more likely, Danny Welbeck and it had to be Danny in the end because unfortunately he turned his ankle slightly but it's no danger because he'll be fit (for Arsenal). 'I think he'd have been bitterly disappointed if he'd come off the field without scoring a goal tonight and I think he'd have blamed himself. Luckily he doesn't have to because he's scored the winner and we go away with three more points.' ITV: So that form hadn't gone in with Wayne Rooney's name on it? You were still considering it? RH: 'No no. We were still considering it. That's right. At least as far as I know. 'I was in discussions with other members of my staff, I don't know about forms going in. 'No doubt you're going to produce some evidence that a form had gone in in a minute but certainly it wasn't my intention.' Glenn Hoddle: 'I think Rooney looked like the only one who was going to score. We made that game far more difficult than it should have been. 'We got away with it a little bit at 10 men. That's what happens in football. You get away with it sometimes.' Lee Dixon: 'It was a bit surprising.

Zaharie Ahmad Shah spoke to before the plane took off on March 8 . The pilot of the missing Malaysian Airlines plane made a mystery phone call just minutes before flight MH370 took off from Kuala Lumpur, it emerged last night. Investigators are now urgently trying to work out who Capt. Zaharie Ahmad Shah spoke to in the cockpit before the plane took off on March 8. There is a hope that the phone call could hold the answer to the plane's mysterious disappearance. They have refused to publicly comment on the investigation, reported The Sun. Investigators are still looking into the pilot's background although yesterday Malaysia's defense minister Hishammuddin Hussein told a news conference he is considered innocent until proven guilty of any wrongdoing, and that members of his family are cooperating in the investigation. Meanwhile today search aircraft and ships are investigating two objects floating in the southern Indian Ocean off Australia that could be debris from a Malaysian jetliner missing for 12 days with 239 people on board. Australian officials said the objects were spotted by satellite four days ago in one of the remotest parts of the globe, around 2,500 km (1,500 miles) southwest of Perth in the vast oceans between Australia, southern Africa and Antarctica. The larger of the objects measured up to 24 metres (79 ft), long and appeared to be floating on water several thousand metres deep, they said. The second object was about 5 metres (16 feet) long. The hunt for the Boeing 777 has been punctuated by several false leads since it disappeared March 8 above the Gulf of Thailand . Most of the relatives said they did not want to comment until there was more solid information out of Australia.

Pictured: Satellite pictures released by the Australian Maritime Safety Authority of the object thought to be related to the search for MH370 . Officials cautioned it could take several days to confirm if they were parts of the missing plane. 'It's credible enough to divert the research to this area on the basis it provides a promising lead to what might be wreckage from the debris field,' Royal Australian Air Force Air Commodore John McGarry told a news conference in Canberra. No confirmed wreckage from Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 has been found since it vanished from air traffic control screens off Malaysia's east coast early on March 8, less than an hour after taking off from Kuala Lumpur for Beijing. 'I can confirm we have a new lead,' Malaysian Transport Minister Hishammuddin Hussein told reporters in Kuala Lumpur, where the investigation into the missing airliner is based. Another official in Malaysia said investigators were 'hopeful but cautious' about the Australian discovery. This is the agonising moment that families are anxiously awaiting news of the missing Malaysia Airlines flight were told two large objects bobbing in a remote part of the Indian Ocean had been found . Chinese relatives of passengers from the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 react as they wait for news at the Metro Park Lido Hotel . The fate of Flight MH370 has been baffling aviation experts for nearly two weeks. Investigators believe that someone with detailed knowledge of both the Boeing 777-200ER and commercial aviation navigation switched off the plane's communications systems before diverting it thousands of miles off its scheduled course. Exhaustive background checks of the passengers and crew aboard have not yielded anything that might explain why. An Australian air force AP-3C Orion plane was already at the scene, John Young, general manager of the emergency response division of Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA), told the news conference in Canberra. Three more aircraft were also on their way, including a New Zealand Air Force Orion and a U.S. Navy P-8A Poseidon, the world's most advanced maritime surveillance plane. A merchant ship diverted for the task was also arriving in the area, Young said. A Royal Australian Navy ship equipped to recover any objects was also en route, but was still 'some days away'.China, whose citizens made up about two-thirds of the passengers on board the flight, said it was also sending ships to the area of the sighting, but it was not clear how long it would take for the vessels to reach the scene. Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) general manager John Young is seen next to an AMSA graphic map during a press conference on the search for the Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 . The huge potential breakthrough in an investigation that had appeared to be running out of leads was revealed by Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott, who told parliament the objects had been located with satellite imagery. 'New and credible information has come to light in relation to the search for Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 in the southern Indian Ocean,' Abbott said. He added that he had already spoken with his Malaysian counterpart, Najib Razak, and cautioned that the objects had yet to be identified. 'The task of locating these objects will be extremely difficult and it may turn out they are not related to the search for MH370,' Abbott said. Young, the Australian official, said it could be some days before authorities have anything to report and added that poor visibility reported in the area could hamper the search. Search area: The objects spotted by satellite are in one of the most remote areas of the planet in waters thousands of feet deep . 'It's probably the best lead we have right now but we have to get there, find them, see them, assess them, to know whether it's really meaningful or not,' he said.Images released by Australia showed the satellite pictures were from U.S. company DigitalGlobe Inc and were taken on March 16. Arrows on the images pointed to two indistinct objects apparently bobbing in the water. The dimensions given are consistent with at least one of the objects possibly being the major part of a 777-200ER wing, which is around 27 metres (89 feet) long, though Australian officials cautioned the first images were indistinct. The relatively large size of the objects would also suggest that, if they do come from the missing aircraft, it was intact when it went into the water. Investigators piecing together patchy data from military radar and satellites believe that, minutes after its identifying transponder was switched off as it crossed the Gulf of Thailand, the plane turned sharply west, re-crossing the Malay Peninsula and following an established commercial route towards India. What happened next is unclear, but faint electronic 'pings' picked up by one commercial satellite suggest the aircraft flew on for at least six hours. That would be consistent with the plane ending up in the southern Indian Ocean. The methodical shutdown of the communications systems, together with the fact that the plane appeared to be following a planned course after turning back, has focused particular attention on the pilot and co-pilot. The FBI is helping Malaysian authorities analyse data from a flight simulator belonging to the captain of the missing plane, after initial examination showed some data logs had been deleted early last month. Relatives of passengers, who have been huddled at a Beijing hotel, attended the daily briefing earlier today, but were then urgently called back when the news broke . One father was adamant that he would not give up hope saying: 'Nothing is definite. I hope my sons returns. My son is still alive' Chinese relatives of passengers from the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 react as they wait for news at the Metro Park Lido Hotel . Military planes from Australia, the U.S. and New Zealand have been covering a search region over the southern Indian Ocean that was narrowed down from 600,000 square kilometers (232,000 square miles) to 305,000 square kilometers (117,000 square miles) A relative of Chinese passengers aboard the missing Malaysia Airlines, MH370, left, is surrounded by journalists as he leaves after learning about the latest debris field found in a remote part of the Indian Ocean . A Malaysian official with knowledge of the investigations into the pilots said three simulator games that 53-year-old pilot, Zaharie Ahmad Shah, had played were being looked at. 'We are following up on the data logs being erased,' the source said. 'These could be logs of the games that were erased to free up memory, so it may not lead us to anything. He played a lot of games, going into hundreds and thousands of hours.' An unprecedented multinational search for the plane has focused on two vast search corridors: one arcing north overland from Laos towards the Caspian Sea, the other curving south across the Indian Ocean from west of Indonesia's Sumatra island to west of Australia. Australia is leading the search in the southern part of the southern corridor, with assistance from the U.S. Navy. The depth of the water where the possible debris has been sighted would likely make recovering the 'black box' voice and data recorders that may finally unlock the mystery of what happened aboard Flight MH370 extremely challenging. University of Western Australia Professor of Oceanography Charitha Pattiaratchi said that, based on currents in the area, if the debris is from the plane it probably would have gone into the water around 300-400 km (180-250 miles) to the west. The search area covered an ocean ridge known as Naturalist Plateau, a large sea shelf about 3,500 metres (9,800 feet) deep, Pattiaratchi said. The plateau is about 250 km (150 miles) wide by 400 km (250 miles) long, and the area around it is close to 5,000 metres (16,400 feet) deep.

The charity behind the £45 item launched an urgent investigation into reports they were produced in a ‘sweatshop’ in Mauritius. The shirts boast the slogan ‘This is what a feminist looks like’ and have been worn by Ed Miliband, Harriet Harman and Nick Clegg. Scroll down for video . Ed Miliband wearing the controversial pro-feminism shirt last week which was made by women paid just 62p an hour . The shirts were made in a factory on the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius where workers said: 'How can this T-shirt be a symbol of feminism when we do not see ourselves as feminists? We see ourselves as trapped' But Conservative MP Conor Burns said the Mail on Sunday’s report into working conditions for the women who made the shirts was ‘hugely embarrassing’ for the two party leaders and for women’s rights campaigner Miss Harman. Critics voiced anger over the apparent hypocrisy, saying the politicians’ T-shirts should carry the slogan ‘This is what an utter failure looks like’. Twitter user Simon Bull wrote: ‘Pro-feminist T-shirt costs £45?! More like “This is what a chump looks like”.’ Tory MP Ben Wallace retweeted a picture of Harriet Harman wearing the T-shirt, with the words: ‘This is what someone supporting Third World sweatshops looks like.’ Fellow Conservative MP Caroline Dinenage also took aim at the deputy Labour leader, saying: ‘Who angers me most is Harriet Harman who sat smug at Prime Minister’s Questions flaunting her £45 T-shirt. ‘As if we take a single step closer to equal pay for the same job by wearing an ugly, over-priced T-shirt.’ Deputy leader of the Labour party Harriet Harman wore the T-shirt made in a sweat shop during Prime Minister's Questions in the House of Commons . David Cameron triggered a row last week when he refused to wear one of the shirts, which were made for high street fashion chain Whistles in aid of women’s rights group the Fawcett Society. Both said they would investigate the ‘sweatshop’ claims. The Mail on Sunday reported the shirts were made in a factory on the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius where women workers are paid only 6,000 rupees a month – the equivalent of around £120. Taking home just a quarter of the country’s average monthly wage, the women also sleep 16 to a room in spartan dormitories between shifts, it was reported. A female worker told the newspaper: ‘How can this T-shirt be a symbol of feminism when we do not see ourselves as feminists? We see ourselves as trapped.’ Fayzal Ally Beegun, president of the International Textile, Garment and Leather Workers’ Union, said: ‘The workers in this factory are treated very poorly and the fact that politicians in England are making a statement using these sweatshop T-shirts is appalling. ‘It would take a woman working in the factory nearly two weeks just to buy one shirt. What is feminist about that?’ Nick Clegg was also pictured looking jolly in the T shirt produced by women paid just £120 a month . Critics last night questioned the high price of the controversial pro-feminist T-shirts, which have gone on sale for £45 despite costing only £9 to produce. Others also asked why the tops were only available up to a size 16. As well as the T-shirts, a £55 clutch bag, an £85 sweatshirt and an iPhone cover costing £30 were also part of a range of items for sale at high street chain Whistles, it was revealed yesterday. Simon Bull, who has called people who wear the T-shirts ‘chumps’, tweeted: ‘It’s not even what a good T-shirt looks like, is it?’ Helen Purves accused the retailer of an ‘epic feminism fashionista fail’. She tweeted: ‘This is what a feminist looks like: thin... And before anyone says size 16 is big, it’s the UK average.’ Women’s rights group the Fawcett Society, which is behind the campaign, said pricing and sizing had been decided by Whistles. The charity’s original T-shirts, which it has sold for eight years, remained on sale on its website for £15. The Whistles range appeared unavailable on its website last night, suggesting it had either sold out or been withdrawn. The firm declined to comment. The shirts are on sale in Whistles, popular with the Duchess of Cambridge, and the campaign has been backed by fashion magazine Elle. Sherlock star Benedict Cumberbatch and Harry Potter actress Emma Watson modelled the shirts for this month’s ‘feminism’ edition of the magazine. Student Shereen Shafi sent a Twitter message to Miss Watson and the magazine, asking: ‘Does indentured female labour look like feminism to you too?’ The row is particularly embarrassing for Labour, which has campaigned for companies to take greater responsibility for their supply chains. Backbench MP Mr Burns added that politicians who wore the T-shirt now look ‘ridiculous’. And Scottish Labour leadership candidate Jim Murphy told BBC Radio 5live it was ‘disappointing’ that there weren’t better checks. However, Labour sources said Mr Miliband was not embarrassed to have worn the T-shirt, and said it was the responsibility of those running the campaign to carry out the checks. A party spokesman said it was ‘happy’ to support the campaign. Conservative MP Miss Dinenage said there was ‘egg on faces all round’. She added: ‘On the politicians, who couldn’t have foreseen how this PR gimmick would unfold; the Fawcett Society, who are very unforgiving of these kind of errors of judgment in others; Whistles, who claim to be a company with ethical values; and Elle magazine whose “feminist” issue kicked this off in the first place – when they promote wholly unachievable ideals of women’s bodies all year round.’ The Fawcett Society said it had been assured by Whistles that the T-shirts would be produced ethically in the UK. When it realised they were made overseas, the charity was told the factory, owned by Compagnie Mauricienne de Textile, had ‘world class’ social and ethical policies. Fawcett Society deputy chief executive Eva Neitzert said she was ‘disappointed’ by the new claims and will insist the T-shirts are withdrawn if there is ‘concrete’ evidence of mistreatment. Whistles said it had launched an investigation, adding: ‘We place a high priority on environmental, social and ethical issues’. It said it carried out regular audits of its suppliers and said the Mauritius factory conformed to ‘the highest standards’." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Controversial shirts were produced in a sweat shop in Mauritius .\nThey were made in a factory where women workers are paid £120 a month .\nWomen also sleep 16 to a room in spartan dormitories between shifts .\nCritics voiced their anger over the hypocrisy of those who wore them .\nThis included Labour leader Ed Miliband, Harriet Harman and Nick Clegg who were called 'chumps' for wearing them .\nAlso been modelled by Harry Potter actress Emma Watson for this month's 'feminism' edition of Elle magazine ." } ]

Sportsmail gives you five things about the midfielder they call Bomber. Tony 'Bomber' Brown poses beside his statue at the Hawthorns with the FA Cup and good friend Denis Law . 1. Tony ‘Bomber’ Brown, born in Oldham in 1945 and brought up in Manchester, snubbed Manchester City to join West Bromwich Albion at the age of 15 after accepting the offer of a trial. He recalled: ‘The very first time I stepped foot inside The Hawthorns I knew this was the club for me. At the time I was on the verge of signing for Manchester City, who were my local club, but I felt so instantly at home with Albion that I decided to sign for them instead. It was the best decision I’ve ever made in my life.’ 2. Bomber scored a club record 279 goals in a club-record 720 competitive matches between 1963 and 1980 despite the fact he was a midfielder. Team-mate Cyrille Regis, in his autobiography, wrote: ‘Tony Brown was the best attacking midfielder I ever played with. You look at his record - to score over 200 goals from midfield is astonishing. Tony Brown was immensely loyal to West Brom - and the best player I ever saw running on to the ball and into the box. The best. He was scarily talented.’ Former Baggies midfielder Brown unveils the statue himself outside the Hawthorns on Thursday . 3. In 1971, Bomber finished top scorer of the old First Division. His 28-League goal tally left the likes of Allan ‘Sniffer’ Clarke and Tottenham’s Martin Chivers in his wake. West Brom only finished 17th that season and scored 58 goals in total, putting Bomber’s feat into even more perpective. It also earned him his one England cap - a goalless draw against Wales at Wembley. 4. The Brown trophy cabinet holds an FA Cup winners’ medal from 1968 and a League Cup gong from 1966. Brown scored in the FA Cup semi-final win over Birmingham which secured a trip to Wembley where the late Jeff Astle scored the only goal of the game to beat Everton. The League Cup was the last two-legged final with Albion beating West Ham 5-3 on aggregate, thanks to a 4-1 win at The Hawthorns, one of the goals coming from Bomber. West Brom goalscorers Jeff Astle and Tony Brown celebrate after Albion beat Birmingham the FA Cup in 1968 . 5. When Bomber finally left The Hawthorns in 1980, he enjoyed three more seasons, playing first for the New England Tea Men in the United States and then Torquay and Stafford back in England. He never stopped scoring goals - 11 in 41 games for Torquay and three in 11 for Stafford." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Tony Brown has been recognised for his 20 years of service at the club .\nThe former midfielder had a statue unveiled at the Hawthorns on Thursday .\nBrown still attends the stadium, working as co-commentator on local radio .\nSportsmail brings you five things you should know about the 69-year-old ." } ]

Provide a succinct and relevant summary of the provided text." }, { "from": "human", "value": "The number of people abandoning Russia has shot up to its highest level in 15 years. More than 200,000 Russians emigrated in the first eight months of this year - continuing a 'brain drain' which has been apparent since Vladimir Putin was re-elected as President in 2012. It has caused shockwaves among analysts because until then, the number of people leaving Russia had been declining for 20 years following the collapse of the Soviet Union. Brain drain: After 20 years of decline since a Cold War peak, the number of Russians abandoning their nation is soaring and reached 203,659 in eight months this year. Source: Russian Federal State Statistics Service . At the peak of Russia's 'first brain drain' from 1990 to 1992, when the country lay in turmoil as it converted to capitalism, more than 2million people left permanently to live abroad. Slowly but surely the figure began to fall, and finally dropped below 100,000 per year in 2003. By 2011 just 36,000 people were leaving Russia every year - and for every departure, ten people were arriving from nations such as Uzbekistan and Armenia. Yet in 2012, the year President Putin won his third Presidential term, that number suddenly spiked to 122,751, according to official figures by Russia's Federal State Statistics Service. It rose again to 186,382 in 2013 and reached 203,659 in the first eight months of 2014 - a period in which Russia has annexed Crimea and increasingly flexed its muscle on the world stage. Today that figure threatened to rise even further as the Kremlin said Russia will fall into recession next year - an announcement which forced the rouble to a record low against the dollar. Threat: The figure could rise dramatically after officials in the Kremlin (pictured) said Russia will fall into recession this year - with the rouble at an all-time low against the dollar after falling 40 per cent this year . Controversial: The stark increase has happened since Vladimir Putin won his third term as President in 2012 . Russia's economic development ministry revised its GDP forecast for next year from a 1.2 per cent growth to a 0.8 per cent drop. It is a blow for an economy which has been hit by Western sanctions and the plunging rates it can get for its oil exports. The rouble has already dropped by more than 40 per cent this year - hitting an all-time low of 53.97 to the dollar - and disposable income for Russian families is expected to fall almost 3 per cent in 2015. But there are other reasons for migration. Many of those leaving have included prominent journalists and intellectuals who say they feel threatened for opposing Putin in an ever-increasing crackdown on dissent. Former world chess champion and political opponent Garry Kasparov, economist Sergei Guriyev and the founder of the 'Russian Facebook' Pavel Durov have all fled to live elsewhere. Intellectuals: Former chess champion Garry Kasparov (pictured) is among Putin's opponents who have fled . Some are gay people who say they are persecuted amid a rise of religious fervour, homophobic attacks and a law against 'gay propaganda' which was signed last year. The number of gay Russians seeking asylum in the U.S. rose from 68 in 2012 to 127 in 2013 and 161 between January and October this year. In total around 40,000 Russians applied for asylum across the world in 2013, 76 per cent more than in 2012, according to a United Nations report. Others came under pressure because of the way they reported the Ukraine crisis. Alexander Shchetinin, the founder of the Novy Region news agency, has since fled to Kiev and intends to renounce his Russian citizenship because of 'bias' on Russian state TV. He wrote in a Ukrainian magazine: 'The more I watched the more I became convinced that nothing can be remedied here. 'It will take generations to cleanse people's souls of the effects of this radioactive TV.' Fleeing: Russian gay couple Igor Bazilevsky (left) and Andrew Nasonov are among hundreds seeking asylum . Desperation: Scores of people have contacted genealogist Vladimir Paley (pictured) in a bid to prove a claim to another country. 'They are people who have already made money and are now scared to lose it,' he said . Another wealthy Moscow businessman interviewed by Vocactiv said he was desperate to leave. 'I want my children to grow up in a fairer country, one where the rule of law is more or less observed,' he said. 'I used to think it was possible to build a better society in Russia, but I’ve basically lost all hope now. It’s time to leave.' Russian genealogist Vladimir Paley told in July how he was beset by requests from wealthy clients - who wanted to prove they were eligible for citizenship in another country. 'They are people who have already made money and are now scared to lose it,' he said. The spike in departures comes despite the majority of Russians agreeing with Putin, whose poll ratings are considerably higher than most of the western leaders he combats on the world stage. Russian singer Tatiana Konkova said that was exactly the reason so many of the remaining minority were voting with their feet. 'I don't share the opinion of 90 per cent of the country,' she told Reuters earlier this year. 'I feel like a foreigner here now.' Yet Russia is still a dream destination for hundreds of thousands of people across eastern Europe. That means even with the recent exodus, 300,000 more people are arriving in Russia every year than the number who leave. The most arrivals come from Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Armenia and Kazakhstan - as well as Ukraine, which more than 58,000 people fled to live in Russia between January and August this year. Such is the appeal that Russia hosted the second-largest number of international migrants of any country in the world last year, according to the UN. The figure was beaten only by the U.S. - though it was followed closely by Germany, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Britain. Figures are for January - August 2014 inclusive.

Provide a succinct and relevant summary of the provided text." }, { "from": "human", "value": "The impartiality of a judge in a supreme court case in West Virginia has been called into question after she failed to disclose that her husband had sold a private plane to an attorney whose appeal case she was officiating. Earlier this year West Virginia Supreme Court Chief Justice Robin Jean Davis upheld the jury verdict for lawyer Michael Fuller’s client – a decision which provided Fuller’s firm with a payout of $17 million - one of the largest he’s ever secured. In 2011, Fuller had negotiating a private deal to buy a $1.3 million Lear Jet from Davis’ husband in a deal that the judge never disclosed and so the exact fee decided between the two parties remains unknown. West Virginia Supreme Court Chief Justice Robin Jean Davis, right, upheld the verdict in a case belonging to lawyer Michael Fuller, left – which provided his firm with a payout of $17 million in October . Davis told ABC News she was under no obligation to disclose such a deal because it involved her husband and not her, but ethics experts have questioned her decision. ‘This does not look good for the rule of law,’ said James Sample, an expert on judicial ethics at Hofstra University Law School. ‘A million-dollar sale of an airplane while litigation involving the lawyer who purchases the airplane is pending before the court? Absolutely no question. It’s proper to disclose, and it is improper to not disclose.’ ‘This is a circus masquerading as a court,’ he said. The original court case was brought by the children of Dorothy Douglas who died in 2009 while a resident at Heartland Nursing Home in Charleston. Her family hired Fuller to sue the owner of the nursing home, HCR ManorCare, contending that the poor care she received at the facility led to her death. In August 2011, a jury returned a $91.5 million verdict – $11.5 million in compensatory damages and $80 million in punitive damages – after Fuller successfully argued that ManorCare had left the West Virginia nursing home under-staffed. In 2011, Fuller had negotiating a private deal to buy a $1.3 million Lear Jet from Davis’ husband in a deal that the judge never disclosed and so the exact fee decided between the two parties remains unknown (stock image) Prior to Fuller, the Lear Jet had belonged to Scott Segal, a wealthy West Virginia trial lawyer who is also Justice Davis’ husband . Lawyers for ManorCare had unsuccessfully argued that the state’s medical malpractice caps should have applied which would have capped damages for the Douglas family at $500,000. But Fuller’s arguement that the mistake was a ‘corporate decision [made] in another state for resources’ won the day and resulted in a far greater amount be awarded. In June the case was heard by the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals including Chief Justice Robin Jean Davis and in October it was announced that ManorCare would pay $38 million. Douglas' son and daughter will receive a total of $20.5 million, according to the Charleston Daily Mail. Fuller’s fees were about $17 million. The final settlement was greatly reduced on the original figure, but much more than the $500,000 cap that ManorCare lawyers had been demanding. An ABC investigation suggests that Fuller did several things outside of court which could have influences Davis including raising money for her re-election campaign. ‘Was I an advocate for Justice Davis, just like other candidates?’ Fuller told ABC News. ‘Sure.’ The other usual piece of business that ties Davis and Fuller concerns the acquisition of the private plane. Through a series of deals ABC alleges that Fuller purchased a Lear Jet in December 2011 that was being sold by Scott Segal, a wealthy West Virginia trial lawyer who just happens to be Justice Davis’ husband. When ABC News questioned Segal about the deal he said he had never met Fuller and that his wife had no idea who bought the plane. ‘I never spoke to or met anyone from the Fuller McHugh law firm. I never met [Fuller] or talked to him,’ said Segal. The original court case was brought by the children of Dorothy Douglas who died in 2009 while a resident at Heartland Nursing Home in Charleston . The entire deal, he claimed, had been handled by an airplane broker named Bob Butcher.

It's a case of mistaken identity for the 26-year-old, who has spent the last five years being compared to his doppelgänger at music festivals, bars, on Instagram and even on the streets of Barcelona. Since the photographer from Perth already shares Aoki’s trademark scraggly long black hair – he thought it would be a brilliant idea to get his friends together to give him the complete DJ makeover. Scroll down for video . Meet Jarrad Seng, from Perth - who has been mistaken for American DJ Steve Aoki for the past five years . 'I get called Steve a lot, especially since I work as a photographer in the music industry', Seng told Daily Mail Australia. 'People already yell out 'it's Steve Aoki' on the streets when I'm not even trying to look like him so the idea clicked in my head after I saw the New York catcall video the other week. 'I thought if I deliberately dress like Steve and get a fake beard - I would have a pretty high chance that people would think it's him. The video shows Seng strolling around Claremont Showground in Perth on Sunday - the second day of Stereosonic - before being approached by festival goers for a ‘selfie’ or group photo. 'The funniest moment was when the real Steve started his set on stage and just the look on people's faces - they were confused when I walked past them and one guy had to double check and he even asked me why I wasn't on stage. 'I even did a crowd surf when Steve was playing and he pointed at me a few times.' Can the real Steve Aoki (right) please stand up? Seng impersonated the DJ at Stereosonic for three hours . Confused festival goers start questioning Seng when they realise the REAL Steve Aoki is playing on stage . Donning a baseball jacket, an Indian feather headdress, a pair of sunnies and finishing the look with a fake beard, Seng kept excited fans fooled at the music festival. 'I couldn't decide which outfit to wear - Steve's a crazy character so I set my friends up to bring along some crazy outfits to wear,' he told Daily Mail Australia. 'I had to line up for a while so I could get change in the portaloo - and I had to keep my head down because I was getting a lot of comments. 'I knew that I would do this for a while so I wanted to make the most of it and I had to buy the stereo ticket to make this happen - it was the first ticket I bought in a really long time - so I had to go all out.' When Aoki hit the stage, more festivalgoers were fooled and confused as to why the DJ was part of the crowd . The photographer from Perth was inspired by the New York catcall video so he wanted to do something similar . Others are heard screaming out: ‘Steve Aoki!’ ‘Oh Wow…’ ‘Oh my god! It’s Steve!’ while they appear to touch his arm, stroke his hair and give him hugs in the video. But when the real Steve Aoki hit the stage, confused festivalgoers are heard questioning Seng, ‘but… you’re way up there?’ or ‘you should be on da stage' and ‘what are you doing Aoki?’ As the crowd cheered on the electro-house DJ, Seng is seen on top of a man’s shoulder singing before running through the crowd. 'This one guy was so happy to see me when the real Steve was playing on stage - he knew that I wasn't the real Steve but he wanted to be involved in the idea,' Seng said. 'So he carried me on top of his shoulders - and he wasn't a big guy - but he carried me to the front. 'I would do it again if the opportunity comes back but I do feel bad for all the people I tricked. Some people were quite nice and sweet and asked for photos but I felt bad.' Seng was approached by 'hundreds' of festivalgoers and excited fans who wanted a 'selfie' One of Seng’s friends, who works in radio, interviewed Aoki and mentioned that his friend ‘pretended to be like you’. Aoki laughs and responds: ‘Yeah, I saw a dude up there that looked like me. I think I pointed at him a few times.’ 'My friend dropped by when I was editing the video and coincidently, he told me that he was going to interview Steve on the show so I told him it would be funny to bring it up,' Seng said.

Imagine you sit down in a coffee shop and notice a private handwritten journal left abandoned on the table. Would you be able to control your temptation to open it? Or would your curiosity get the better of you? If you’d . look away like a good citizen, you’re in the minority. A recent . experiment that created this exact scenario found one in five people . surreptitiously picked up the journal and read through the very private . entries – which included details of sex fantasies and loss of a parent. The experiment, which was carried out by anonymous social media site Pencourage.com, found that 60% picked up the journal and read it, 77% of whom were women. Only 30% of . people turned a blind eye and a mere 10% handed it in. The . experiment illustrates why Pencourage, which allows subscribers to post . 200-word diary entries without revealing their identity, is proving a . big hit with us nosy Brits. The voyeuristic site has racked up over half a million page views with more than 3,000 subscribers creating online diaries in which users share their deepest, darkest and often most embarrassing secrets. Every day, the writer can upload 200 words to tell their story. They can also pin relevant websites to each journal entry, store pictures appropriate to their stories and upload songs or videos that remind them of the times they are writing about. But most importantly, subscribers can write about whatever they want - from their affair with the boss to the friend they secretly despise - without anyone discovering their true identity. Usernames and emails are private to everyone, including the website’s staff. Diarists also often ask advice from their unknown followers about what to do or how to cope in situations. There are now 23,000 real-life diary entries on the site, which has been dubbed the ‘anti-social network’. Unlike Facebook, where users attempt to portray themselves in the best possible light, Pencourage is a platform for sharing the unadulterated truth. A recent poll found that 33% of social media users admitted to dishonesty, with a quarter (24%) of women stating they lie or exaggerate on social media between 1-3 times per month, 7% between 3-6 times and a staggeringly untruthful 1% more than 25 times. On Pencourage.com subscribers post their most private thoughts online but their identity remains unknown . The most common topic respondents lied or exaggerated about was what they were doing (29%), for example, pretending they were doing something exciting when in fact they were home alone. Just under a quarter of respondents (24%) said they lied about how much they drink. One in five fibbed about what they were up to on holiday and about their career. And a cheeky 17% lied about their relationship status. So why all the smoke and mirrors? The survey found that the top reasons for lying were: ‘I worry people see me as boring’; ‘I feel jealous of other people’s exciting posts’; ‘I don’t have anything to say otherwise’ and ‘I want to impress someone/everyone’. On refreshingly honest Pencourage, however, no such life airbrushing occurs. One entry about a casual liaison reads: ‘Condom malfunction stopped the activity as soon as we realised but not quite soon enough.’ Not exactly the sort of details posted on Facebook. Another frank entry reads: ‘I wish after everything I could be happy with myself. But with my ex having driven me crazy, secretly going after my sister throughout the one and half years we were together, it's made me feel fat, ugly, insecure and stupid.’ If Facebook makes you feel you have to compete in the perfect life competition you never chose to enter, Pencourage might just be that dose of unadulterated reality you've been waiting for. USERNAME: Waiting For a Life . Extract 1: Something strange is going on . As you know, Jon (my ex) came and . stayed with me a few days whilst Hubby was away. It was so good to spend time . with Jon. It reminded me why I loved him and what we once had together and for . a millisecond I was transported back to those days and was wondering why we . split up - but I soon came to. The Pencourage homepage is bursting with secrets waiting to be read . It seems, however, that Jon stayed in that dream state. He rang today and left . a message saying he very much likes Mr Waiting but that if I ever felt. I was shocked and super angry. What on earth does he think he's up to? Telling . me that I am even more beautiful than before, that I am a Lady and have a . \"real sophistication\" doesn't mean I am going to go running to him. Sure, he has money galore, looks that stop women in the street, manners of a . true gentleman and tastes in culture that make me want to swoon but then . there's Mr W. Extract 2: Waiting for a life . I woke up this morning with dread . in my mind. It is such an awful feeling. It is worse than a panic attack (for . me) because it is all consuming and lasts for weeks sometimes. I know what it is about and have looked for help to shake it off but no one . seems to be able to help. Even meditation doesn't help. It is all about the fact that I feel like I am an empty shell, that I have . lived my life in fast forward, that it has been so packed up with experiences . that now it has come to a stand still. My childhood has consumed 'me' and there . is no way to escape the issue that I have nothing, NOTHING, to look forward to. Oh sure I have the odd bit and bob but there is nothing that will change my . life, turn it on its head, and I seem to need that. I know I should be content . with what I have but I feel .....
