Pauline King, described by police as a "reclusive hermit", was found at The Avenues on 22 February. Alexander Kerry, 23, of Kinghorn Road, Norwich, was sentenced at Ipswich Crown Court after he entered a guilty plea. He denied a charge of sexual assault and the prosecution chose not to proceed on that count. Ms King died as a result of a sustained assault with a knife and hammer during a burglary at her home, the court was told. She lived alone in what police described as a "dilapidated" detached house and neighbours said she was a pleasant but reclusive woman. Kerry was found later the same day wandering nearby streets covered in blood. Det Sup Paul Durham described it as a "vile murder" which "sent a shudder of fear" through the community. Prosecutor Andrew Jackson said Kerry, desperate for money after drinking in a Norwich city centre pub, had broken into the home and beat Ms King to death. He then tried to set fire to the house to destroy the evidence, he said. The court heard he was left deeply damaged after his father murdered his mother as he and his brother slept at their home in 2002. Mr Justice Stuart-Smith said he acted with "animal brutality" to murder Miss King and sexually abuse her dying body in an "act of desecration". He said: "Nothing begins to explain what you did to Pauline King. She must have suffered terribly." Kerry had a criminal record including violence and disorderly behaviour dating back to his teens, he said. Jonathan Goodman, mitigating, said his client had "self-medicated" through alcohol and drugs following the almost "unimaginable" events of his childhood.
A man who admitted the "vile murder" of an 82-year-old woman in her Norwich home has been jailed for life, with an order to serve 25 years and six months.

The children's laureate - always a well-known writer or illustrator of children's books - is chosen by a panel of judges from the book world. It comes with a bursary of £15,000, not to mention a shiny, silver medal. The role has a pretty loose job description - the laureate has to "promote and encourage children's interest in books, reading and writing". Jacqueline Wilson's "obsession" while she was children's laureate was to "get everyone to read aloud to children, all children, from the age of nought to 11". Malorie Blackman revealed that she spoke to over 20,000 teenagers when she was in the role but arguably her main achievement was setting up the UK's Young Adult Literature Convention, which now takes place each year as part of the London Film and Comic Con. Chris Riddell has spent much of his two years defending school libraries and librarians, and promoting the art of illustration at live events. In his final speech before he passes on the baton, he said the lack of investment in school libraries is a "blight on the intellectual development and creative future of all our children", as well as highlighting the issues faced by child refugees in the UK. Quentin Blake, the first children's laureate and best-known for his collaborations with Roald Dahl, produced a book called A Sailing Boat in the Sky in collaboration with 1800 French-speaking schoolchildren.

Charlie and Lola creator Lauren Child has been named as the new children's laureate, taking over from Goth Girl author Chris Riddell.

The singer told The Sun he had performed 10 concerts in "agony" on his European tour before he called in doctors. "I was a ticking time bomb. I guess I could have died at any time," he said. According to his website, he is on a course of "intensive antibiotics" and is expected to undergo surgery "in the coming weeks". Sir Elton has had to postpone a series of summer festival dates including shows in Italy, Germany and London's Hyde Park this week. A spokesman said the diagnosis had been made "following a number of exploratory scans and blood tests with his medical team in the UK". He confirmed the singer would not return to touring until he had fully recovered from both the planned surgery and any damage caused by the appendix abscess. "Elton is incredibly disappointed to postpone these tour dates," he said. "To know that he made such super-human efforts and continued to perform to thousands through his illness only confirms his dedication to his European fans. "He is eager to be back on top form and return to play the remaining shows starting in early September 2013." Sir Elton had been due to perform at the Collisioni festival in Italy on Tuesday, with further shows in Germany on Thursday and a headline gig at London's Hyde Park on Friday. British Summer Time festival organisers AEG Live said the Hyde Park show would still go ahead with Elvis Costello and former Kinks frontman Ray Davies on the bill, with existing ticket holders receiving a full refund. Other July dates now scrapped include festivals in Spain, France and Monaco. Sir Elton is due back in the UK in September, performing at the First Direct Arena in Leeds and at Bestival before heading back to Las Vegas for a month-long residency at The Colosseum.
Sir Elton John has said he is "lucky to be alive" after being diagnosed with appendicitis.

Every practising nurse and midwife must be on the UK register, but not everyone on the register will be practising, or working in the NHS. However, the government has said that there has been a 13,100 rise in the number of nurses actually working on NHS wards in England since May 2010, when the Conservatives came into power as part of the coalition government. But this is only true if you look just at nurses working on acute, elderly or general wards. If you look at all areas of nursing, the number of staff - or the equivalent in terms of full-time hours - did increase between May 2010 and March 2017, the latest date we have figures for, but by a more modest 5,000. To confuse things further, the Health Secretary, Jeremy Hunt, tweeted earlier this month that there were 15,000 more nurses since he took up the post, in September 2012. This is because the overall number of nurses working for the NHS in England fell by almost 10,000 between 2010 and 2012 and then went back up again by just under 15,000 between 2012 and 2017, resulting in that net increase of almost 5,000. This figure includes health visitors, who are qualified nurses. The overall increase in numbers of nurses working in the NHS masks a net fall in some areas of nursing. For example, since May 2010, the numbers of community, mental health nurses and specialist learning disability nurses have fallen. And, meanwhile, the number of nursing posts lying vacant doubled between 2013 and 2016, from 20,000 to 40,000, according to figures from the Royal College of Nursing. So the gap between how many nurses we have and how many we need has widened.
The number of registered nurses and midwives is shrinking, according to figures from regulator the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC).

Talks have been ongoing for the past couple of weeks about the Northern Ireland international, with City having had two offers turned down for a player that West Brom say is not for sale. Evans, who had nine years at Manchester United before joining Albion in 2015, has two years left on his deal. West Brom have also turned down a £10m bid from Leicester for the 29-year-old. Evans joined United as a schoolboy before going on to win three Premier League titles and two League Cups while making 198 appearances. He joined West Brom after being told he did not figure in former United manager Louis van Gaal's plans. Twelve months ago, Arsenal showed an interest in signing Evans but West Brom rejected the approach for their captain. City manager Pep Guardiola said last month he was still hoping to sign another central defender before the transfer window closed. His fourth choice in that position is Eliaquim Mangala, who is not thought to have any long-term future at City. Former Everton winger Pat Nevin speaking to BBC Radio 5 live: Everyone knows Manchester City have a weakness at centre-back. Virgil van Dijk would be the perfect fit but if you don't get him then Jonny Evans, at 29, is probably coming in at his peak. He's comfortable in a two, comfortable with three at the back, and he's not bad on the ball either. I am struggling to find a negative. Just look at the Premier League at the weekend, centre-backs are really hard to find. People say he's not worth it, but there are so few of them around - so of course he is worth it.
Manchester City have had an £18m bid for defender Jonny Evans rejected by Premier League rivals West Brom.

The market research firm GfK conducted a one-off online survey of 2,000 people after the result was known. Its confidence index fell by eight points to minus nine, a drop not since seen December 1994. Less confident consumers tend to curb their spending, which accounts for about two-thirds of the UK economy. It is also one measure watched by the Bank of England when deciding its next move on interest rates. Governor Mark Carney has already warned the UK's economic outlook is "challenging" following the decision to leave the EU. The Gfk survey also suggested that 60% of consumers expect the general economic situation to worsen over the next year, compared with 46% in June. Just 20% expect it to improve, down from 27% last month. The number of people who believe prices will rise rapidly in the next 12 months jumped to 33% from 13% in June. It also showed regional differences in the fall in confidence - with the north of England seeing a 19 point drop and Scotland seeing an 11 point drop. The south of England saw just a two point drop. The survey was run from 30 June to 5 July to capture the mood of consumers immediately after the referendum on 24 June. "Our analysis suggests that in the immediate aftermath of the referendum, sectors like travel, fashion and lifestyle, home, living, DIY and grocery are particularly vulnerable to consumers cutting back their discretionary spending," said Joe Staton, head of market dynamics at GfK. A separate survey indicated that retailers were already beginning to feel the impact. The BDO's monthly High Street Sales Tracker showed a strong start to June, with sales growing 3.8% year on year. That decreased throughout the month and by the end of June, after the referendum, sales had fallen by 8.1% compared with last year. Official economic figures from the Office for National Statistics that will reflect any Brexit impact will start being released in August.
Consumer confidence has seen its sharpest drop in 21 years after the UK vote to leave the EU, a survey suggests.

The inquiry is being led by the complex case team of the Sexual Offences, Exploitation and Child Abuse Command. Kids Company said it was not aware of the nature of any allegations and its priority was the safety of its clients. Police want anyone with information or concerns to contact them or the NSPCC. The police investigating team can be contacted on 0208 217 6538, while the NSPCC helpline number is 0808 800 5000. Kids Company is run by Camila Batmanghelidjh. The charity provides practical, emotional and educational support to some of the most deprived and vulnerable inner-city children. In a statement Kids Company said its "first priority is the safety and security of all the children, young people and adults we support and protect". It added: "The organisation operates robust policies and procedures that ensure all Kids Company's clients are protected and that staff work safely with clients at all times. "Kids Company's policies and procedures are externally reviewed regularly by an expert consultant and are governed by a risk sub-committee comprised of senior clinicians and representatives from the board of trustees. "All allegations of misconduct between Kids Company employees and clients are immediately reported to the police if required." Earlier this month the charity faced questions about the way it was run and whether government funding would continue.
An investigation into a number of allegations of crime involving the children's charity Kids Company has been launched by the Metropolitan Police, the BBC has learned.

Boeing is one of many companies working to develop high powered lasers that can be used in military or defence scenarios. The company says its new device is the most portable yet, and can be collapsed into four parts light enough to carry.

Marie Black, 34, of Norwich, stood trial with nine others, including five women, at Norwich Crown Court. Black denied 26 charges. A jury found her guilty of all but three counts. She was convicted of offences including rape and inciting a child to engage in sexual activity. Two men were found guilty of child sex abuse and another woman was found guilty of assault. Michael Rogers, 53, from Romford, was found guilty of 14 counts including cruelty, rape and inciting a child to engage in sexual activity. Jason Adams, 43, from Norwich, was convicted of 13 similar counts. Carol Stadler, 60, from Atkinson Close, Bowthorpe, Norwich, was found guilty of assault causing actual bodily harm but cleared of nine other charges, including serious sexual assaults. They are due to be sentenced on 28 September. Six other defendants, Anthony Stadler, 63, Nicola Collins, 36, Andrew Collins, 52, Judith Fuller, 32, Denise Barnes, 34, and Kathleen Adams, 84, all from Norwich, were cleared of all charges. Black sobbed uncontrollably in the dock as the verdicts were delivered. Opening the trial, prosecutor Angela Rafferty QC said Black, previously known as Marie Adams, played an instrumental role in using the five children as "sexual playthings". The abuse, which is said to have happened in and around Norwich and London, included forcing the children to have sex with one another. On some occasions, the adults threw parties and played card games to decide who would abuse which child, Mrs Rafferty said. In interviews the victims described how they were abused in front of one another and other adults. Some of the abuse involved children's toys, including Barbie dolls. All of the defendants denied abusing the children, saying it simply did not happen. During the trial it emerged police had launched an investigation into the conduct of one agency social worker involved in the case. The court heard that the trial had originally been due to start last year only to be delayed when prosecutors raised concerns over changes made by social workers to statements taken from the children. This resulted in Norfolk Police launching an investigation into anomalies in documents. Prosecutors decided no action should be taken, Norfolk Police said after the trial. A police spokeswoman added: "There was no wrongdoing found on the part of the council." Sheila Lock, interim executive director of children's services at Norfolk County Council, said: "The victims in this case have shown tremendous courage in speaking out. "The needs of the children, who were central to the prosecution case, have always been at the fore of our minds and have been the main focus of all of the agencies involved. "Our priority continues to be the children in this case who, despite the ordeal they have been through, are now doing well and are safe from harm." Deanna Neilson, head of safeguarding at Action for Children, said: "This appalling case reveals the premeditated and organised approach some people take to abusing children. "We cannot lose sight of the needs of the children who suffered at their hands, even though the abuse has stopped. "Children must be supported, and in some cases receive therapy, to ensure they are armed with the confidence and knowledge they need to recover from this trauma."
A woman said to be at the centre of an abuse ring has been found guilty of child sex offences.

The jury praised Ahmed Mansoor for regularly raising concerns about arbitrary detention, torture and degrading treatment in the Gulf state. As a result, it said, he had faced repeated intimidation, harassment and death threats from the UAE authorities and their supporters. Mr Mansoor could not collect the award in Geneva because of a travel ban. The Martin Ennals Award is named after the late British lawyer who became the first head of the human rights organisation, Amnesty International. Mr Mansoor was selected as one of the human rights defenders nominated for the award by a jury of 10 global human rights organisations. The other nominees were Asmaou Diallo of Guinea and Robert Sann Aung of Myanmar. Before Tuesday's awards ceremony, the jury had said Mr Mansoor's absence would "mark a very disappointing position for the UAE, which is a country that prides itself as one of the hubs of international business and tourism in the Middle East, as well a safe haven in the region". "As a member of the UN Human Rights Council, which is running for a second term, we expect the UAE authorities to honour their obligations to uphold human rights and protect human rights defenders," a statement said. Mr Mansoor and four other activists who called for democratic rights in the UAE were arrested and jailed in 2011 on the charge of "insulting officials". Although pardoned and released later that year, he was banned from travel and had his passport confiscated. In a video message recorded for the ceremony, Mr Mansoor said: "I hope that my presence as a finalist can show people that we have deep human rights issues that PR companies and a complex network of interests try to dismiss, or at least present as contrary to the reality." The UAE has shown little tolerance towards dissent since the 2011 Arab Spring. Dozens of people have been detained and most have been tried and convicted of planning to overthrow the government.

"This film will help bridge the gap between people of the Indian mainland and those from the north-eastern states," Mary Kom told the BBC. The five-time world champion is from the remote northeast state of Manipur. Bhansali, who has been planning the film for a year, described the boxer as an "inspiration to every Indian woman". "I am very impressed with the way Mary Kom is leading her life with so much conviction and courage. We'll start working on the film very soon. I haven't decided on who will play her role," Bhansali told the BBC. Recently, thousands of north-eastern people fled the Indian cities of Mumbai, Bangalore and Hyderabad fearing reprisal attacks in the wake of ethnic clashes between Bodo tribes and Muslims in the north-eastern state of Assam. The boxer says she has been worried about her relatives and friends living in Bangalore and "could not properly sleep at night when this exodus was taking place". The mother of twin boys feels that Bhansali's film on her will help clear the air because "our people look different but they are Indians. We have the same passions when the country is involved". Bhansali's assistant Omung Kumar, who researched Mary Kom's life and wrote the script, will direct the film. But will it be possible to screen the movie in the boxer's home state Manipur, where separatist rebels have imposed a ban on Bollywood films? "I hope nobody will object to a film if it centres on my life story, my struggles to become a boxer," Mary Kom said. India's thriving film industry has rarely picked on themes from the country's long-embattled north-eastern states and the few films that have been made have focused on the separatist insurgencies and India's counter-insurgency efforts in the region.
Indian Olympics bronze medallist, boxer MC Mary Kom, has welcomed a film that Bollywood director Sanjay Leela Bhansali wants to make on her life.

The world champion has made bad starts to both races and is trailing Mercedes team-mate Nico Rosberg by 17 points after two victories for the German. Hamilton said his starting problems were "not a big issue", adding: "It is something we'll fix for the next race." And he said he was "actually pretty chuffed" about finishing third in Bahrain after a first-lap collision. Hamilton started on pole but was second behind Rosberg by the first corner, where he was hit by Valtteri Bottas's Williams and dropped to seventh. The damage to his car cost him between 0.8-1.5 seconds a lap but Hamilton fought back to finish third behind Rosberg and Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen. Hamilton said his poor start in Australia two weeks ago was caused by a clutch problem and that in Bahrain "it was not entirely my fault but it was my reaction time that caused the delay". Asked whether he was concerned about having to make up ground to Rosberg, just as he did on his way to the title in 2014, he said: "Don't worry about it - I'm not." He added: "This is a psychological game for sure, but with age and experience I'm in the most solid place I've been. There's very little that can penetrate that. "We easily had the pace to win. We didn't. We all feel the pain, but I just said to the guys: 'There is a long way to go; let's not worry about it.' "I know it will come good. We've had two poles and we'll get more." Rosberg, whose victory in Bahrain was his fifth victory in a row including the final three races of last season, said: "I'm just enjoying the moment - fighting for wins, knowing I'm going to be fighting for the win in China. I'm really not looking ahead." However, he said Mercedes were concerned about the threat from Ferrari, whose lead driver Sebastian Vettel retired before the start with an engine failure. "They showed good pace," Rosberg said. "They are close and they haven't shown what they can do because of various mishaps in the races so far. "They are coming at us strong and we need to be careful."
Lewis Hamilton said he was "not worried" about his difficult start to the Formula 1 season.

The Reverend John Price told his victims the hypnosis was to help them relax, before he carried out the abuse, Teesside Crown Court was told. The defendant is accused of carrying out the attacks in the 1970s and 80s. Mr Price, 82, of Ash Tree Close, Bedale, North Yorkshire, who is now retired, denies 14 counts of indecent assault on boys aged between 11 and 17. More on this and other local stories from across Yorkshire He is accused of indecently assaulting two youths while he was at York Methodist Church and two while he was a minister in Pocklington, East Yorkshire. Paul Newcombe, prosecuting, told the jury all four of the alleged victims "make strikingly similar allegations against the defendant". "The defendant attempted, so he said, to hypnotise them, he said to help them relax, and then he proceeded to abuse them sexually," he said. The court was told he sometimes used a blanket, or cloak, as part of his technique, while telling one boy to hold a 50p piece until he dropped it, believing then his victim was in a trance. Mr Newcombe said on one occasion the defendant groped one boy in a vestry while hypnotising him to help with his "nerves". He offered to hypnotise another boy to help him cope with stress, touching his body, he said. Another is alleged to have been assaulted at Mr Price's house when his wife and daughter were out. After being hypnotised and molested, the youth said he felt "shocked, frozen, appalled and at a loss as to know what to do", the court was told. A fourth boy was abused after being made to lie naked on a bed, the prosecutor said. "No doubt the defendant was convinced that he was able to hypnotise these lads, [but] it seems that all the boys feigned a trance as a coping mechanism," Mr Newcombe added. The trial continues.

Sixty teams submitted plans for Clandon Park House in Surrey, which was reduced to a charred shell in 2015. The National Trust has announced a shortlist of six teams, as well as the names of those on the jury, which will make a final decision after a public consultation over the summer. Building work is expected to begin by early 2019, the National Trust said. The National Trust said it wanted plans to combine restoring state rooms in the Grade I-listed building with new galleries and visitor spaces. Sandy Nairne, who is chairman of the jury, said: "We received an excellent set of submissions, offering many fascinating collaborations and partnerships. "The shortlist represents a collection of great talent from the UK and abroad. "The teams that were selected had thoroughly analysed the conservation issues and design opportunities, and proposed thoughtful and creative approaches." The six shortlisted teams will create concept designs which will go on public display in the late summer, The winning team is due to be announced in early autumn, the National Trust said. The trust said the high-profile project had a £30m construction value.

There were 70 reports during the lambing season earlier this year compared with 45 over the same time last year. Police Scotland said the crime, which involved dogs chasing farm animals, had previously been under-reported. It said 60% of this year's incidents were detected and the dogs' owners reported to the procurator fiscal. Most of the offences reported were in Aberdeenshire, Highlands and Islands and Lanarkshire. Sheep were the most common animal affected. Other animals involved included horses and cattle. In 79% of incidents, livestock were killed or injured, and on average this involved two or three sheep per incident. Most incidents - 70% - involved only one dog and in 73% of cases the offending dog was local to that area, with more than half of all incidents involving a dog roaming free and where no owner was present. Insp Jane Donaldson, Police Scotland's rural crime co-ordinator, said the rise in reports followed a campaign encouraging farmers and crofters to contact police about livestock worrying incidents. She said: "Livestock worrying has previously been under-reported. "Farmers were often reluctant to report incidents to police, particularly where there was a 'near miss' and no physical damage was done to their livestock. "A significant part of the spring campaign was to get this message out to farmers and encourage them to report all incidents and I think that this is reflected in the increase in reported crimes. "More accurate reporting has improved our understanding of the problem, increasing intelligence about the how, where and why these incidents are occurring." Anne Gray, policy officer with Scottish Land and Estates, said: "We are very pleased with how successful this year's campaign has been and we will continue to support the initiative going forward. "It is vital that livestock worrying incidents are reduced. "No-one wants to see this type of completely unnecessary suffering and the higher the profile of these incidents the more, we hope, it will prompt the small minority of irresponsible dog owners to change their ways and ensure they know where their dog is at all times."
Reported incidents of livestock worrying have risen by 55%, according to police.

They are young and clever, and they want to change the world - one bus at a time. "We've created the world's first bus that runs on formic acid, which is a much cheaper solution than hydrogen, yet it delivers the same environmental benefits," says Lucas van Cappellen from Team Fast, a spin-off company from Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands. "We're building our own future." Around 40 of his fellow students are endeavouring to develop emissions-free transport that will help in the global battle against climate change. And they're also trying to create careers for themselves. Formic acid is found in nature, delivered in the stings and bites of ants and other insects - the Latin word for ant is formica. And this simple carboxylic acid (chemical formula HCOOH) is already used in textiles and leather processing, as a livestock feed preservative, and is also found in some household limescale removers. But Team Fast has found a way the acid can efficiently carry the ingredients needed for hydrogen fuel cells, used to power electric vehicles. The fuel, which the team has dubbed hydrozine (not to be confused with hydrazine), is a liquid, which means you can transport it easily and refill vehicles quickly, as with conventional fuels. The difference is that it is much cleaner. "The tailpipe emissions are only CO2 and water," explains Mr van Cappellen. "No other harmful gases like nitric oxides, soot or sulphuric oxides are emitted." To prove the concept in the real world, an electric bus is set to hit the road in the Netherlands later this year, where it will shuttle between running on conventional bus routes and appearing at promotional events and industry fairs. The bus has an electric drive system, developed by bus builder VDL, that receives additional power from the formic acid fuel cell system mounted in a range-extender trailer, towed behind. "Our tank is around 300 litres, so we will extend the range of the bus by 200km (180 miles). However, we could of course make the tank bigger very easily," says Mr van Cappellen. Current hydrogen fuel cell buses have a range of up to 400km. But why develop a bus rather than a car? "If we built a car, we would compete with electric cars, but we believe battery-powered cars are a good solution for a lot of people," says Mr van Cappellen. "But if we prove that we can build a bus that meets the needs of bus companies, with a range of around 400km and quick refuelling, we will have shown the potential of hydrozine in a segment where there is no sustainable competition yet." Hydrozine is created through a chemical reaction between water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2). More Technology of Business "In a reactor, water and CO2 are bonded using sustainable electricity. This is a direct, sustainable electrochemical process," explains Mr van Cappellen. The hydrozine is then broken down by a catalyst into hydrogen and carbon dioxide inside a piece of kit called a reformer that Team Fast is attempting to patent. Its newly designed reformer is a tenth of the size of reformers of the past, which is why "it is now applicable in transport applications for the first time". The hydrogen is then added to a fuel cell where it reacts with oxygen to generate the electricity that powers the electric motor. "We are continuously looking for new technologies that can extend the range of zero emissions traffic in a simple way," says Menno Kleingeld, managing director, VDL Enabling Transport Solutions. "The decomposition of formic acid into hydrogen gas is one of these new, promising technologies." But does it really stand a chance of becoming commercially viable? "It costs about 35,000 euros (£30,000) to convert a conventional petrol filling station to a hydrozine filling station, a process that essentially involves replacing the pipes and coating the tanks," says Mr van Cappellen. As such, it is "100 times cheaper" to roll out a fuelling network for hydrozine than for gaseous hydrogen, he maintains. "Hydrozine is currently cheaper than petrol and more expensive than diesel in the Netherlands, and in future we expect prices to come down so it will be cheaper than both," he adds. Although the bus emits CO2, Team Fast argues that the original CO2 used to create the hydrozine is taken from existing sources, such as air or exhaust fumes, so that no additional CO2 is produced - it's a closed carbon cycle in the jargon. Some experts believe the technology shows promise. "Team Fast has a very good project," says Professor Richard van de Sanden, head of the Dutch Institute for Fundamental Energy Research. "It works on a very important issue: the storing of renewable energy in a transportable form and in a form which can actually be used." And several companies are supporting the project. "What we're working on together is a version of renewable energy that can combine renewable energy with CO2 capture," says Martijn de Graaff, senior business development manager at TNO Industry. "If we achieve this it will give us a stable future." The students' own commitment is impressive, with 15 of the 40 working full time on the project, and the rest contributing at least 20-25 hours per week. "We don't get study points for it, but you can only learn so much at university about the practical experience of things," Mr van Cappellen says. "It's our own future we're making."
A group of students has developed a way of storing energy that could be cheaper to make, more practical and more sustainable than alternative renewable fuels.

Chartoff's daughters confirmed he died at home in Santa Monica surrounded by his family. He had pancreatic cancer. "He was an amazing father and person," said Julie Chartoff, adding: "There are no words." He won the best picture Oscar for the first Rocky film in 1977, which was written by its star Sylvester Stallone. The producer shared the Academy Award - one of three for the 1976 film - with partner Irwin Winkler. They both went on to produce all seven Rocky movies, including the forthcoming film Creed, which is currently in post-production. Chartoff was also nominated for an Oscar in 1981 for Raging Bull, Martin Scorsese's darker take on the sport, which starred Robert De Niro as boxer Jake La Motta. He produced films into his late 70s and early 80s, including 2014's The Gambler with Mark Wahlberg and 2013's Enders Game with Harrison Ford. He also worked on Jane Fonda's They Shoot Horses, Don't They? and 1983 film The Right Stuff, which won four Oscars. Chartoff and Winkler - who worked together until 1985 - convinced United Artists to make Rocky for less than $1 million (£646,000), after Stallone insisted on playing the lead, according to Variety. The film went on to earn 10 Oscar nominations and take more than $200m (£129m). Chartoff is survived by third wife Jenny Weyman and his five children.

Under the deal, Baosteel is to take over its smaller competitor Wuhan Iron and Steel. Both companies are majority-owned by the state. The announcement comes as Beijing tries to overhaul the steel industry, one of the country's bloated state sectors. The merger will create a new company, China Baowu Iron and Steel Group. Based on data from 2015, the two firms together have an annual production of about 60 million tonnes a year, which would make it the country's largest steelmaker. Globally, it would be second only to Luxembourg-based ArcelorMittal. Baosteel's net profit tumbled 83% to 1bn yuan ($150m) last year, while Wuhan lost 7.5bn yuan, a sharp drop from its 1.3bn yuan net profit in 2014. Steel demand in China, as well as worldwide, has slumped in the past year as the country's economic growth has slowed. The resulting overproduction has seen steelmakers around the world suffer huge losses. China has been accused of price dumping - selling its steel cheaply overseas in order to clear its stocks. In April, China promised to reduce its steel output, following a crisis meeting attended by 30 nations. Over the past 25 years, Chinese steel production has expanded hugely with output growing more than twelve-fold. China produced more than 822 million tonnes of steel in 2014 and is expected to produce even more this year. However, projected demand for its steel in 2016 is only 672 million tonnes.
Two of China's largest steel companies have announced plans for a merger, creating the world's second largest steelmaker, as the industry struggles with global overproduction.

The report, a summary of which was released by the Homeland Security Department, said the agency needed more plainclothes and uniformed staff. It added that the White House needed a new, taller fence. The review came after an intruder with a knife entered the building. Omar Gonzalez, a former US soldier, was apprehended deep inside the presidential residence in September after he had scaled a fence around the building and evaded several guards - including one with an attack dog. Julia Pierson, the Secret Service director at the time, resigned partly as a result of this breach. The Secret Service is tasked with guarding the US president, as well as several senior government officials. According to an executive summary of the independent review, the agency's next director "will have to make difficult choices, identifying clear priorities for the organisation and holding management accountable for any failure to achieve those priorities". "Only a director from outside the [Secret] Service, removed from organisational traditions and personal relationships, will be able to do the honest top-to-bottom reassessment this will require." The review also said a better fence should be built "as soon as possible", recommending one that was several feet higher and curved outwards, making it harder to scale. However, the review noted that the problems in the agency "go deeper than a new fence can fix". The panel said the agency's staff were over-stretched, working "an unsustainable number of hours". It called for boosting the service's ranks by 85 special agents and 200 uniformed officers, to reduce overtime and allow staff to receive regular training. The four-member panel based its findings on interviews with 50 employees of the Secret Service. The panel admitted that many of its recommendations had been made before - but not implemented. Many details have already emerged of the security lapses that allowed Mr Gonzalez to enter the White House, pointing to a lack of training, bad staffing decisions and failures in communication. Mr Obama and his family were not at the White House when the intrusion happened, having departed about 10 minutes earlier by helicopter. Mr Gonzalez has been indicted on charges including unlawfully entering a restricted building or grounds while carrying a deadly or dangerous weapon and unlawful possession of ammunition. The intrusion came after a series of embarrassing lapses by the Secret Service - including reports that agents had used prostitutes while on duty in Colombia.
The US Secret Service, which guards the US president, is too insular and must recruit its next head externally, a review prompted by a White House security breach says.

University Hospital Coventry is undergoing remedial work because its structures "were not as robust" as originally planned. The hospital trust says interim safety measures are in place during the work. Skanska, which built the hospital under a private finance initiative (PFI) scheme, declined to comment. More reaction to the story David Eltringham, chief operating officer at University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust, said: "We can assure our patients, staff and visitors that we remain vigilant in ensuring fire safety standards are maintained at all times." He said the trust "learned of some potential issues with the infrastructure" which prompted the internal investigation. The investigation found that "in the unlikely event of a fire, the structures to prevent it spreading were not as robust as those specified in the original plan for the building", Mr Eltringham added. The trust says it collaborated with Skanska to identify remedial work and is working with the fire service to optimise fire safety standards. Meanwhile, steps are being taken to strengthen fire safety including additional patrols and increasing rubbish collections. A West Midlands Fire Service spokesman said: "We are working together with University Hospital Coventry and have an action plan in place for upgrading fire standards." Construction firm Skanska, which was paid to build the hospital, said it had nothing further to add to the statement issued by the trust.
A £380m hospital which opened 10 years ago may have been constructed without adequate fire protection, a safety review has revealed.

But one nation, Russia, was missing. For the first time in Eurovision history, the host nation barred another country's singer. That is because in 2015, in violation of Ukrainian border rules, Russia's Julia Samoilova performed in Crimea, the Ukrainian peninsula annexed by Russia a year earlier. Samoilova suffers from a neural muscular disorder and has used a wheelchair since childhood. "When the rumours began I might not go, I was so sad," she told the BBC in Moscow. "I thought, how come? This was my dream. When the final decision was taken I didn't believe it. But unfortunately, this is the reality." "I think it's a stupid reaction," Russian MP Vitaly Milonov tells me. "They're even afraid of such a small girl to enter Kiev." Even before Ukraine's ban, Mr Milonov had called for a Russian boycott of Eurovision: "Eurovision became a disgusting socialist nightmare for all these left-wing parties with all their bearded women, or men, with these anti-Christian positions. "I am sure that most conservatives in the world will never attend this festival. Because this is a festival of Sodom and Gomorrah." It is supposed to be a festival of peace and friendship but there is not much sign of either in relations between Kiev and Moscow. In eastern Ukraine, 10,000 people have been killed in three years of war: a war in which Russia is directly involved through its military support for separatist rebels. Crimea remains a source of tension and Eurovision is the latest battleground. "Since 2014, we've had a law in Ukraine that punishes people who illegally cross our border when they visit Crimea," says Ukrainian MP Olha Chervakova. "Did Russia know this? Of course. Did Russia know that Julia Samoilova would fall foul of this law? Of course. In other words, entering her in the contest was a conscious provocation to create a huge political scandal." The ban created a huge headache for Eurovision organisers, the European Broadcasting Union (EBU). Eurovision's Executive Supervisor Jon Ola Sand said in March that Ukraine's decision went "against both the spirit of the contest and the notion of inclusivity that lies at the heart of its values". In an unprecedented move, the EBU offered Russia the chance to take part by satellite from Moscow. Russia declined: after the dramas of last year's Eurovision, Moscow was in no mood to compromise. Ukraine's 2016 winning entry, 1944, sung by Jamala, was about Joseph Stalin's deportation of Crimea's Tatar population. Russia had argued that Jamala's song broke contest rules for being of a political nature. When it won, Moscow cried foul and said there was politics at play. Now Russia seems determined to make not only Ukraine look bad, but the entire Eurovision Song Contest. When strangers are coming, they come to your house, they kill you and say 'we're not guilty' Recently, two Russian pranksters - posing as Ukraine's prime minister and his assistant - released online a telephone conversation they had recorded with a woman they claimed was EBU Director General Ingrid Deltenre. If this is the voice of the EBU's top official, it is hugely embarrassing for the EBU, because the woman on the recording makes an astonishing admission about Ukraine's winning song: "I was just too late made aware of the song. "If I would have been earlier, and I think it was on purpose, I would have not allowed the song to participate, to be very transparent." In a statement, the EBU said it would "not comment on prank calls". But these are high-profile Russian pranksters, who once fooled Elton John into thinking he was talking to Russian President Vladimir Putin. "Now our people don't trust Eurovision any more," one of the pranksters, Alexei, told me. "People understand that any country can use their political goals to win, so it's not a fair contest anymore." Perhaps this is not just about a song contest? Or Russia's relations with Ukraine? Equating Eurovision with Sodom and Gomorrah and embarrassing the EBU appear part of a wider pattern of Russia trying to undermine Western institutions and Western liberal ideas. "Russia now defines itself in its social and societal model against the West," believes Jan Techau of the Richard Holbrooke Forum at the American Academy in Berlin. "The Kremlin explicitly portrays Russian society as a counter model to the corrupted West. They seem now to buy completely into the idea that whatever harms the West is good for Russia: a classic zero-sum game." In the run-up to this year's contest, singer Jamala warned that "we should expect more provocations [from Russia] because our victory hurt them a lot." Security in Kiev is tight ahead of the first semi-final. As for Julia Samoilova, instead of singing at Eurovision this week, she will be performing - once again - in Crimea. Another political message from Moscow, to Kiev and to Europe.

Media playback is not supported on this device Five goals were scored in the first half, with Greg Stewart and Kane Hemmings striking early for Dundee. Ross County captain Andrew Davies headed in from a corner before Rory Loy diverted home Hemmings' shot. Alex Schalk netted on half-time, but Craig Wighton and Stewart with a fine solo goal made the points safe late on. After seven minutes Stewart drove through the heart of the County defence before turning the ball onto his favoured left foot and curling it into the bottom corner. Two minutes later Hemmings took full advantage of slackness in the Staggies defence and knocked home his 23rd goal of the campaign. It was no more than Paul Hartley's side deserved after a whirlwind start. Jim McIntyre's team eventually woke up and reduced the deficit after a succession of corners. Davies ghosted in at the front post and with a glancing header knocked the ball beyond David Mitchell to give the travelling fans hope of retaining their place in the top half of the table. And they should have been back on level terms when Michael Gardyne's cross was met on the volley by Martin Woods but the midfielder hammered the ball over the crossbar. Dundee however restored their two-goal advantage as once again the visitors defence was breached. Hemmings had a shot on goal that was glanced into the top corner by Loy giving Gary Woods no chance in the County goal. The first-half action though was far from over. Schalk latched onto a long through-ball and although Dens keeper Mitchell got his hand to the shot there was enough The second half failed to live up to the opening period but there were still plenty of chances created at both ends. Gardyne blasted high over the crossbar from 12 yards out while Ian McShane saved on the line from Dundee top scorer Hemmings as the home side looked for goal number four. County survived a scare when Hemmings managed to get a touch on the end of a Stewart free-kick but the ball trickled only a few inches the wrong side of the post. The home side secured all three points with four minutes left when Wighton hammered the ball home after Stewart's shot was blocked. Stewart completed the scoring when he once again fired home with a cultured left-foot shot that beat Woods. Hartley's side are now in pole position to secure a place in the top six for the season run-in.
Dundee leapfrogged Ross County and moved into the Premiership's top six, prevailing in a hugely entertaining Dens Park encounter.

The speed of change, development and growth in Asia is staggering, particularly when you compare it to the inability of Washington DC to get anything done at all. I had the privilege of being one of the first people to fly out of Hanoi's gleaming new international airport terminal on Monday. The building opened with great Vietnamese fanfare on Christmas Day. But here's what's really impressive - the project was only started in 2009. That is five short years in which to build not only a large new airport terminal but also a six-lane motorway and an impressively high-tech bridge to connect the facility to the centre of the city. Imagine America, or Europe for that matter, being able to accomplish anything that big in that short a time frame. Political divisions in the US Congress mean America can't agree on any new infrastructure projects, let alone something on that scale. And I can tell you, when you fly from the capital of Vietnam to the capital of the world's superpower, you realise it's Washington's airport that desperately needs the upgrade. By comparison with all five of the clean, modern Asian airports I visited during my trip - in Cambodia, Vietnam and South Korea - it was Dulles that felt like it was in the developing world. With so much construction going on in South-East Asia, you would think Western firms would be rushing to invest. But Hanoi's new airport - like Ho Chi Minh City's new subway system - has been built with Japanese money. From what I could see, the Asian boom is being financed with Asian cash. If I owned a construction company, or a hotel chain, or an airline, or pretty much anything related to travel or tourism, I'd park myself firmly in the East. Take a tour of the Angkor Wat in Cambodia after 9:00am and the crowds of Chinese tourists are almost impressive as the ancient Khmer ruins themselves. Where only 10 years ago there would have been just a handful of intrepid Chinese visitors, outnumbered by Westerners, today there are millions of them. And of course, their numbers will only grow. The new face of global tourism is Asian and any hospitality firm not catering to Asian tourists is missing a profitable trick. I loved my two weeks in Asia. It was the first time I had been back in too long. Despite being dragged round endless sights at the crack of dawn, my kids loved it too, the welcome for them was just as warm as I remembered it when I used to live in Japan. I was there for holiday not work, so my impressions are just that, impressionistic, but I came away with two clear observations - a sense of how fast things are moving there compared to here and of how little the West seems to feature in that boom.
It has become a truism that this is going to be an Asian century not an American one - but there's nothing like seeing the two continents first-hand to really understand why.

Membership of the Labour Party has soared since the general election and Mr Corbyn believes most of these new members are his supporters. The hope of his opponents is that many may have become disillusioned with his leadership. But having spent a day in Leeds meeting new and older members of the local party, I found scant evidence for this. If anything, Mr Corbyn's supporters seem ever more determined to defend him. So who are these new members; the so called "Corbynistas"? I spent time with four of them: Jane Ingham , 65, a retired head teacher, Ged Colgan, 26, a hotel worker, Marvina Newton, 30, a local charity manager and Jane Aitchison, who is in her 40s and is a trade unionist. What quickly became clear was that, not only was Jeremy Corbyn the main reason they joined the Labour Party, but they remain fiercely loyal to him. Mr Corbyn, they believe, offers inspiration and change. In the past Labour had become too similar to the Conservatives; particularly over austerity, they say. Jeremy Corbyn represented a break with the traditional way of doing politics "He's unlike anyone," says Marvina. "To me that's what is great about him. He speaks from the heart. " What was also clear was the disdain all four had for those Labour MPs seemingly determined to oppose Jeremy Corbyn. "Unfortunately they have been part of a style of politics that has not only failed to win elections but they have been consistently wrong about a whole range of issues," says Ged. Jane the retired head teacher is similarly unimpressed. "I'm quite disappointed with the MPs. Do too many of them have too many privileges and just enjoy the privilege of being members of Parliament?" And there's no disguising the fact these new members are prepared for a fight should Labour MPs continue to refuse to back Mr Corbyn, if he wins this leadership contest. No-one mentions the D-word, deselection. But the warning signs are clear. "It's perfectly legitimate for local members to choose who they want to be their candidate at the next election," warns Ged. "I don't see why being an MP should be treated like a job for life." Jane, the trade unionist, agrees. "They (the MPs) do feel threatened. We represent change and Jeremy represents huge change and that threatens their very cosy position." So what of longer-serving party members? How do they view this influx of pro-Corbyn new members ? Away from the city centre in one of Leeds' more deprived areas, Seacroft, a rock-solid Labour area, I met up with two long-standing party members: Les Wrigglesworth, a former miner, and Melvyn Burton. They both praise the energy and enthusiasm of the new recruits. However they are more cautious over how committed these new members will remain to the Labour Party. Les says they may prove "fair weather" members. They are both dismissive, however, of claims that many of the new members are so-called "entryists" from Trotskyite and other hard-left groups. Les dismisses the idea as a "red herring". There may be a few entryists, he says, but only a tiny minority. Melvyn believes the new members may be "naive" in their views but they are not Trotskyists. It's only a snap shot but my impression is that even those party members who are not supporters of Jeremy Corbyn are far from happy about the challenge to his leadership. Some regard it as a distraction from the business of opposing the Conservatives; others as undemocratic; others still as a precursor to a possible all-out civil war or even split in the party. The difficulty is that Mr Corbyn has become the sticking point. Many Labour MPs believe he threatens Labour's very survival as a credible political party. But if they are hoping the membership is poised to turn against him - I found precious little sign of it in Leeds.

Seven months after Mourinho's arrival as successor to Louis van Gaal, United are sixth in the Premier League, 13 points behind leaders Chelsea and six points adrift of the top four to guarantee Champions League qualification. Speaking in the build-up to Wednesday's trip to Crystal Palace (20:00 GMT), Mourinho said he wants to keep his squad together for the rest of the season. However, sources have told BBC Sport he would like to make changes. United have spent £480m since Sir Alex Ferguson retired in 2013 after 26 years as manager. They broke their club record in January 2014 by signing midfielder Juan Mata from Chelsea for £37.1m, and spent a British record £59.7m on Real Madrid winger Angel di Maria later that year. In August this year, they gave Mourinho a world record £89m to sign midfielder Paul Pogba from Juventus. The BBC understands Mourinho acknowledges it might not be easy to move on high wage earners - but it is thought he views this as a matter for executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward to address. Mourinho has said he is "open to listening to offers" for any player. Netherlands forward Memphis Depay is one of those most likely to leave. The 22-year-old joined United from PSV Eindhoven for £31m last year but has started only one game this season, at Northampton in the EFL Cup on 21 September. The last of seven substitute appearances, totalling 79 minutes, came against Feyenoord in the Europa League on 24 November. Italian title contenders Roma are among a number of European clubs monitoring Depay. Everton have also been linked with a loan move for the player, but he may prefer a fresh start away from England. It seems likely German World Cup winner Bastian Schweinsteiger will leave in January. The midfielder, 32, was exiled from Mourinho's squad at the start of the season, though he was introduced for the final four minutes of United's EFL Cup quarter-final win over West Ham on 30 November. In addition to Depay and Schweinsteiger, the only senior outfield players to have started fewer than five games for United this season are midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin and winger Ashley Young. Schneiderlin joined United from Southampton for £25m in 2015, signing a four-year contract. The 27-year-old France international was a regular in his debut season, but his three Premier League appearances this term have totalled just 11 minutes. Young, 31, signed a three-year contract extension in 2015 and was part of United's defence in the goalless draw at Liverpool on 17 October but has figured only twice since. West Brom are known to be interested in the former England man. "I am always open to listen to offers for every player. I am always ready to listen to the players themselves. So any player who knocks on my door and is not happy and wants to move, when the offers are correct, I will never stop a player from leaving, even if it is to a rival. No problem at all. "I am happy with the squad I have. I would like my squad to be my squad until the end of the season. I am not going to any player to say: 'You are going to leave because I don't want you.'" Mourinho says he expects Schweinsteiger to stay for the rest of the season despite interest from Major League Soccer, and Chicago Fire in particular. He said: "I do. Unless again the player knocks on our door with a future that he wants to grab with both hands." Mourinho appears to be undecided about full-back Luke Shaw. The 21-year-old rejected a move to Chelsea in order to join United from Southampton in 2014. He recovered from a broken leg sustained in September 2015 to start six of United's first seven games this season, then four out of five from 20 October. But Matteo Darmian now appears to be Mourinho's first-choice left-back. Shaw was substituted at half-time on his last appearance, the EFL Cup win over West Ham on 30 November. Mourinho says the England international has a groin injury, and has work to do if he is to prove himself at Old Trafford. He said: "Luke needs to improve. That is normal as he is a kid. "I am not expecting a young player to be perfect. A young player makes mistakes, has things to learn and things to develop." Mourinho is believed to be keen to bolster his central-defensive options, as Eric Bailly will leave for Africa Cup of Nations duty with the Ivory Coast later this month. Benfica's Victor Lindelof is thought to interest United, and recently received an endorsement from United striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic, his fellow Swede. A move for the 22-year-old will not be made easier by Benfica reaching the knockout stages of the Champions League. Mourinho is known to believe his squad lacks a game-changing forward, which only strengthens reports in Spain that United will make a summer move to sign 25-year-old Atletico Madrid forward Antoine Greizmann.
Manager Jose Mourinho will need at least two more transfer windows to get close to the squad he wants, say senior Manchester United figures.

More than a new way of playing video games, a cynic might say. Special Report: The Technology of Business Digital death of a business card? Mobile advertisers want your phone Rinsing your reputation the online way Mobile working comes of age Using voice to give your app the edge But Microsoft - a company that may well spend more on R&D than any other business - believes its strategy is paying off, and the proof is the XBox Kinect system. On a visit to the company's headquarters, I had a chance to see some of the projects that Microsoft scientists at its laboratories in Redmond, in Beijing and in Cambridge, England, believe will change the way we see computers. And the striking thing about what Microsoft's research chief Craig Mundie picked to show off to a group of technology journalists was that almost all of them involved Kinect. The system which turns a player's body into a games controller was developed with the help of seven different research groups at the company's three main labs, some working on voice recognition, others on motion sensors and a range of other technologies. Now they are looking at what Kinect could do next. We saw a system which would allow two people to see different images on the same screen, their eyes tracked by the Kinect camera. Other scientists showed off ways that the camera could capture objects and people in 3D, which might have applications in future telepresence systems. And there was plenty of work on avatars, for use in either games or in video-conferencing. Two Chinese researchers demonstrated a photo-realistic talking head - type in some text and he'll say anything you want, blinking and moving almost like a real person. Craig Mundie says the success of Kinect, which racked up 8m sales in its first 60 days, is proof that the sheer scale of Microsoft's R&D strategy is paying off. "Microsoft is at a point where many of the things that we've been researching for twenty years are starting to add up and produce solutions," he says. "You can't rely on two guys in a garage to make all the changes, some of these things require a huge amount of technology and a lot of scale." But Microsoft desperately needed a hit from its research labs. Ever since Bill Gates decided 20 years ago that the company would spend big bucks on trying to see into the future, there have been ideas aplenty but few stand out products. A decade ago, for instance, Gates was showing off tablet computers - but it took Apple and its iPad to make them mainstream. Peter Lee, who runs the Redmond lab, says the research operation has a wide remit, from dealing with instant fixes to current products to blue-sky thinking. Professor Lee, who joined Microsoft last year after a distinguished academic career and a spell at the US defence agency DARPA, insists the labs are having an impact on a daily basis. He cites the contribution to what he describes as the "holy war in search", the battle between Google and Microsoft's Bing. "Hour by hour we have a large group of researchers actively involved in Bing, constantly adding new research advances into the product." But he thinks the long-term research is equally important. "Some call it navel-gazing, we call it pushing back the frontiers of human knowledge," he says with a smile, predicting that his lab will one day win a Nobel prize. His boss Craig Mundie is Microsoft's big thinker, charting the path of its future research. His current obsession is what he calls natural user interfaces, new ways of interacting with computers, of which Kinect is one example. There is, he says, a shift about to happen from the old graphical user interface to a trend where "the computer is more like us - it sees, it listens, it speaks, it understands, it even seeks to do things on our behalf." It is an intriguing vision, but here's a sobering fact. All these clever ideas, smart people, and major investment have not stopped Microsoft from being overtaken in the last year in terms of market value by Apple, which seems to focus on the customer experience now, rather than five years down the line. Big, sleepy, and dull, I suggested to Mr Mundie, is how many people now perceive Microsoft. "We don't feel big and sleepy or dull," he responded, "but if people perceive us that way I think looking at the stuff that Kinect brings should change that view." And he insists that firms that do not have the patience to spend on long-term research will lose out in the end. "I don't think any company is going to prevail over a long period of time in giving good business returns, if they aren't making these kind of investments. They'll come and go in a generation if they don't have the staying power that's produced by having real mastery of the underlying technologies." Microsoft, which still generates huge revenues from its core products, Windows and Office, can well afford to keep spending on its blue-sky thinking. But having made such a big bet on science, it will be hoping that the coming years will produce more Kinects, and fewer tablet PCs.
If you spent $9bn a year on research and development and employed 900 of the world's top computer scientists to come up with new ideas, what would you expect in return?

Tierra del Fuego judge Lilian Herraez ordered the authorities to seize boats and other assets worth $156m. Argentina claims sovereignty of the islands, which it calls the Malvinas. The oil companies named in the case are not based in Argentina and it is not clear how the measure will be implemented. Drilling for oil in the territorial waters around the Falklands began in 2010 despite opposition from Buenos Aires. Judge Herraez says the new ruling will take steps to try to seize the companies' assets abroad. The five companies mentioned are: Premier Oil Plc, Rockhopper Exploration Plc, Falkland Oil and Gas Ltd, Noble Energy Inc and Edison International Spa. Three of the companies are British-based, one is American, based in Texas, and one is French-owned, based in Italy. Britain and Argentina went to war over the Falklands in 1982. Argentina occupied the South Atlantic archipelago for 74 days, before British forces regained control. During the conflict, 255 British and about 650 Argentine servicemen were killed, along with three Falklands civilians. Argentina accuses Britain of colonialism, saying the islands lie some 700km (450 miles) off its coast. Britain has held the Falklands for 180 years and says the wishes of its 3,000 residents should be respected. The vast majority of them want the islands to remain a British overseas territory. "They want to remain British and that view should be respected by everybody, including by Argentina," said David Cameron after a 2013 referendum in which the islanders gave almost unanimous support for the status quo. Argentine President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner said at the time that Britain was "arrogant" and "bordering on stupidity" for refusing to negotiate on the future of the islands.
A federal judge in Argentina has ordered the seizure of assets of five companies drilling for oil in the Falkland Islands.

Brownhill made only six appearances for North End last season, but scored three goals in 27 games on loan at League One play-off winners Barnsley. The 20-year-old rejected a new contract offer from Preston, who will be owed compensation for the move. "As well as being a good footballer he's also a fantastic character," said City head coach Lee Johnson. "He is a young, hungry, sought-after player who is experienced beyond his years in modern day football, and we've beaten off competition from other clubs to get him."

The 25-year-old midfielder had received approaches from Scottish Premiership rivals Dundee United and Inverness Caledonian Thistle. Manager Alan Archibald said: "Steven has proved over the last few seasons what a valuable part of the squad he is. "It came as no surprise that Steven had offers from other Premiership clubs." Lawless, who joined Thistle from Motherwell in 2012, made 40 appearances this season, scoring five goals. Thistle are also waiting to hear from Frederic Francs and Gary Miller after contract offers to the defenders. Caley Thistle, who finished two places above the Glasgow side in seventh, had also made approaches to Lawless' midfield team-mates, Stuart Bannigan and Abdul Osman. Bannigan rejected a new contract at Firhill along with defender Danny Seanborne, but Osman signed a new two-year deal.
Steven Lawless has extended his contract with Partick Thistle for a further two years.

The Age UK review identified more than three million people aged over 65 with a care need, but found just two-thirds of them were actually getting help. The charity warned that the lack of support for the ageing population was risking their health. But ministers said steps were being taken to provide more help. The review used official data and existing research to identify how many people were struggling with everyday tasks and how many were getting help. There are 10 million people over the age of 65 in England, the review said, and more than 3 million struggle with tasks such as washing, dressing, eating and going to the toilet. Just over one million pay for care or rely on family and friends with another 850,000 supported by their local councils. But that leaves another one million who have to fend for themselves. The report also warned that community NHS services and GPs were struggling to meet demand from the ageing population. And Age UK warned there were signs this was affecting the health of older people. It cited an 88% rise in hospital admissions for urinary tract infections among the over-75s between 2005-06 and 2013-14 to 4,173 per 100,000. Meanwhile, admissions for pneumonia among the over-60s have more than doubled over the same period to 2,621 per 100,000. Age UK charity director Caroline Abrahams said it was a "destructive vicious circle" where the lack of support was worsening the health of the most vulnerable older people in society. "If an older person asked us today how confident we were that their health and care needs will be met well in the future we would be whistling in the dark if we gave a wholly reassuring answer." But a Department of Health spokeswoman said "significant action" was being taken to improve the support given to older people. She pointed out that all over-75s should now have a named GP to co-ordinate their care, while a £5.3bn pot of money - mainly from NHS funds - has been set aside this year for joint projects between councils and health services.

"On an almost daily basis, we are being described the worst threat - be it to Nato as a whole, or to Europe, America or other countries," Mr Medvedev said. He cited Nato chief Jens Stoltenberg's speeches and films depicting Russia starting a nuclear war. "Sometimes I wonder if this is 2016 or 1962," Mr Medvedev said. The Cold War was a period of ideological confrontation between the former Soviet Union and Western countries. It began after World War Two and ended with the collapse of the Soviet-led communist camp in the 1989. The 45 years of tension were marked by espionage and proxy wars involving client states - all undertaken with the knowledge or fear of the nuclear catastrophe that actual war would bring. The Nato alliance was established in 1949 to protect Western countries. The six key moments of the Cold War relived How the Cold War ended, in 1989 BBC News - Could you stop World War Three- Russia has recently come under strong criticism over its air strikes in support of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and over its role in neighbouring Ukraine, which culminated with the annexation of the Crimean Peninsula in 2014. In an interview with the BBC at the same Munich conference, Mr Stoltenberg said Russia had changed borders by force and had become more assertive - and that Nato had to be able to respond to threats. "We are not in a cold-war situation, but also not in the partnership that we established at the end of the Cold War," Mr Stoltenberg said. Nato, he said, did not want an escalation, but enhanced political dialogue with Russia. Early this month, the BBC broadcast a programme entitled World War Three: Inside the War Room, which imagines a hypothetical Russian attack on its Baltic neighbours - Nato members - and nuclear confrontation.
Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev has said strains between Russia and the West have pushed the world "into a new cold war".

The Miscarriage Association, which came up with the figure, wants people to open up about baby loss to break what it calls "the last taboo". One mother has gone a step further and filmed the aftermath of her miscarriage for a documentary, to challenge the secrecy surrounding it. Lisa Francesca Nand, from Greenwich, has suffered five miscarriages in total, including one the day before her 12-week scan. "One minute I was pregnant, we were planning the future and thinking about being a mummy and daddy. Then suddenly, in the space of a few hours, we were no longer going to be parents, it was heartbreaking," she says. The experience made her determined to share her story. One scene shows her husband David waiting outside the hospital while she has the remains of their second unborn child removed from her body. "They had sent me home to pass the sac. It took a week of walking around with a dead baby inside me for it to come out. And I bled for six weeks afterwards. No-one talks about the physical pain, so I didn't expect it. "I started filming a video diary because no-one talks about it. I want people to understand they are not alone, " adds Lisa, who has since gone on to have two healthy boys. So why are miscarriages still shrouded in mystery? Ruth Bender Atik, national director of the Miscarriage Association, thinks it is because of the "rule" that women should not announce their pregnancy before their first scan. "Most miscarriages happen in the first three months. If you don't tell people you are pregnant then sadly you are not going to get the support that you need when you are grieving. It doesn't suit everyone to talk about their pregnancy before their scan, but it can help. "We don't tell people 'in case something happens', but that can reinforce the idea that you should keep it a secret if you miscarry," Ms Bender Atik said. The reason behind a miscarriage is often unclear - leaving women with no one to blame but themselves, she adds. "Most women never find out why, so they think it must be their fault, and this is very a dangerous path to go down." Family and friends might not know how to react, and can make things worse with insensitive comments, according to Ms Bender Atik. "We want people to say things like 'I am so sorry for your loss' and 'do you want to talk about it?', rather than 'don't worry, you will be pregnant again soon," she added. My own miscarriage happened earlier this year, at nine weeks in to my first pregnancy. I noticed some light bleeding and was sent to Colchester Hospital for a scan. My husband and I were overjoyed to catch the first glimpse of our tiny baby, with a strong heartbeat pulsing furiously away on the screen. Only a few friends and family members knew that I was pregnant, and we rushed round to show them the photos of our beautiful baby. But 24 hours later we were sat in the same chair, being told that our precious baby had gone. Sitting in the car park crying, we tried to make sense of what had happened. My husband told me through tears that all he had ever wanted was to be a father, and I felt like I had let him down. We had planned to tell his parents that evening over dinner, so we still made the trip up north and kept our restaurant reservation. We sat in shocked silence for most of the journey, playing songs that I have not been able to listen to since. Telling them we had miscarried felt even harder, because they had never known the joy of my pregnancy in the first place. In the following days, I began to blame myself. It must have been the heavy camera kit I had stupidly picked up at work. Or perhaps it was the rum I drank on an all-inclusive holiday before I knew I was pregnant. My husband was hugely supportive throughout, but I found myself pushing him away, telling him that he did not understand how it felt. I made him put the baby books and maternity clothes I had foolishly bought in the loft, because it was too painful to look at them. How naïve I was to buy them, I berated myself, looking at the nursing chair in the corner that I knew I would not sit in. I talked about getting a tattoo because I felt like I had nothing to show for being pregnant, as if it had never really happened at all. One of my best friends told me she was pregnant and was due at the same time as I would have been, and I hated myself for not feeling happy for her. "I'm really lucky that I didn't need to have an operation, some people have much worse miscarriages," I kept telling friends and family, to make them feel better. But inside I felt like the unluckiest person in the world. I went straight back to work because my colleagues did not know, and on the first day I had to attend an inquest about a dead baby. But this is completely normal, I told myself. After all, no-one talks about miscarriage. Six months on, I have realised three things. Firstly that men can suffer as much as women after a miscarriage, and if anything, this experience has made our marriage stronger. Secondly and probably most importantly, that it was not my fault. And thirdly, that miscarriage is so much more common than I had realised. I slowly started telling people and was amazed by how many confided that they too had secretly suffered this fate. I posted a message on Facebook saying I was writing this article and friends I had known for years got in touch, having never before shared their stories of loss. One said she had a miscarriage at work but felt like she had to hide because she did not want to tell her boss. Not a day goes by without another of my friends thinking about her babies and what they would have become. One friend sent me a note to say she was going through her second miscarriage at this very moment. Another said she could not tell anyone because she felt ashamed, like she had failed at the one thing women should be able to do. No-one should feel like this after a miscarriage. If it feels right for you, try sharing your story - you might be surprised by the reaction. First Heartbeat was first shown on 15 October at 10pm on TLC UK - and will be repeated on 17 October at 9pm, 19 October at 9pm and 28 October at 10pm.
As many as one in four pregnancies are thought to end in a miscarriage, and yet most women never talk about it.

The owner was forced to open the crocodile farm's gates on Sunday to prevent a storm surge, the local Beeld newspaper says. Many of the crocodiles have been recaptured, but more than half are still on the loose, it says. The floods have killed at least 10 people in Limpopo province. The crocodiles escaped from the Rakwena Crocodile Farm, a tourist site about 15km (nine miles) from the small town of Pontdrif, which borders Botswana. Zane Langman, the son-in-law of the farm's owner, told the newspaper that many of the crocodiles had escaped into dense bush and the Limpopo River, the second biggest in South Africa. "There used to be only a few crocodiles in the Limpopo River. Now there are a lot. We go to catch them as soon as farmers call us to inform us about crocodiles," said Mr Langman. "I heard there were crocodiles in Musina [about 120km away] on the school's rugby field." Mr Langman said he went to rescue friends in a flooded house in the area by boat on Sunday. "When we reached them, the crocodiles were swimming around them. Praise the Lord, they were all alive," he is quoted as saying. The South African Air Force is being used to rescue people affected by the flooding in remote settlements, some of which are cut off from the outside world. The floods have also affected neighbouring Mozambique, where tens of thousands of people have been evacuated from their homes.
About 15,000 crocodiles have reportedly escaped from a farm in South Africa's far north amid heavy rains and flooding.

William Porterfield completed his 16th Ireland century as they added 73 runs before declaring on 240-7 to leave the Dutch needing an unlikely 343 to win. Stephan Myburgh's 85 steadied the Dutch after Wesley Barresi suffered a duck. A 60-run partnership by Ben Cooper and Peter Borren left the Dutch on 186-4 as played was halted at 18:30 BST. After a number of rain delays in the contest, Ireland utilised their right to play for another hour after the scheduled finish time of 18:00 BST before captains Porterfield and Borren shook hands. Resuming on their overnight 167-4, Porterfield batted for just 11 more overs before declaring for the second time in the game. By then Porterfield had shown all his class in an excellent 108 while Kevin O'Brien had chipped in with a quick-fire 50. The visitors' unlikely run chase took an early blow as Tim Murtagh trapped Barresi lbw without scoring. However, a second-wicket partnership of 107 between Myburgh and Dan ter Braak helped ensure that they would leave Dublin with a share of the spoils. Simi Singh was best with the ball for Ireland in the second innings with 2-19 as unbeaten knocks of 37 and 25 from Cooper and Peter Borren ensured the dogged Dutch earned a deserved draw. The result moved Ireland to the top of the Intercontinental Cup table but they will need to beat Scotland in November and hope that Afghanistan slip up in the one of the two remaining games to retain the title.
Ireland's hopes of retaining the Intercontinental Cup were dealt a blow as they were held to a draw by the Netherlands at Malahide.

Activists say about 35 pro-government fighters were killed and some medical staff taken hostage. More than 20 IS fighters were also reported killed. The attack was centred on al-Assad hospital, to the west of the city. Government forces retook the hospital after several hours, reports say, but the fate of the hostages is unclear. BBC Arab Affairs Editor Sebastian Usher says the latest offensive shows that IS, despite recent setbacks, can still threaten significant government territory. IS controls more than of half of Deir al-Zour and is seeking to capture the entire city. The group has been besieging government-held areas there for two years, trapping about 200,000 civilians. IS's Amaq news agency said its fighters had carried out a "major offensive" in Deir al-Zour early on Saturday, storming the hospital and cutting the route between a Syrian army base and the city's airport. It said it had also taken over a fire station, university accommodation, grain silos and territory near the al-Tayyam oil fields. A UK-based opposition news service, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, says government forces retook the hospital after several hours of fierce fighting. Deir al-Zour is in an oil-rich area and on a vital supply route to the IS stronghold of Raqqa.
Militants from the Islamic State (IS) group have briefly overrun a hospital complex in the eastern Syrian city of Deir al-Zour, reports say.

Phase one of the project will take 10 weeks to complete and will see demolition of the rear function room of the Ship and Anchor pub. An old library building will also be knocked down and a new car park built. Pembrokeshire council also wants to create a one-way system, footways and a public transport hub, with work starting later this year. The master plan includes a new link road, retail units and the demolition of buildings, including the derelict Fishguard Junior School, on 1.5 hectares (3.7 acres) of land. Councillors hope it could encourage further investment in the town.

The total number of fans attending Scottish Professional Football League games, including play-offs, was up to 4,267,467 from 3,804,342 in 2015-16. It is the first time attendances have topped the four million mark since the 2008-09 campaign (4,252,212). "These figures are hugely encouraging," said SPFL chief executive Neil Doncaster. "It is testament both to the hard work of clubs in attracting people to games as well as the commitment and passion of supporters of all 42 clubs. "There is already a great level of excitement ahead of SPFL season 2017-18 with many of our clubs executing some very creative season ticket marketing campaigns to help attract even more fans to attend matches regularly. "All of this sends out a very positive message and provides a great platform to improve the overall profile and health of Scottish football."

About 50 arrived in the city in May and the families have spent the last three months settling in to their new lives. A total of 98 refugees have now arrived in Northern Ireland since the conflict. The first group of Syrian refugees arrived in December 2015. The war in Syria has claimed the lives of more than 250,000 people. Some of the refugees in Derry were at the North West Regional College on Tuesday to find out more about learning courses. Bayan Khello, 18, had to leave many of her family behind including her brother who is currently in Germany. Bayan spoke to BBC Radio Foyle through an interpreter. "I still have family in Turkey and Aleppo, the sons of my cousin are still there, we have put in an application to have our family unified here. "My uncle and my cousin were killed in the war. My cousin was going back from his work when a sniper shot him in the chest. That was one of my worst days," she said. Bayan, who wears a free Syria wristband in the colours of her native country, said she did not want to leave her home. "I didn't want to leave Aleppo, I wasn't eating for two months. Then my father told me 'We have to live our life now, we have to make a new start'. "I saw houses knocked down with children underneath, its time to end this war, its enough." Bayan, who has a degree in accountancy, said she does not yet know what kind of life she will have in Northern Ireland, but she wants to study hard and learn English. Yasser Al Satton left his home in Syria after chemical weapons were used in the area. "Within the last month the house of one my relations was bombed and ten people were killed. "Everything that comes to your mind, we lived it and we saw it. One of my relation's lost both of his hands when a bomb exploded. "If we had hope that the war would end we would have stayed but I don't believe the war will end," he said. Yasser said that he was adjusting to his new life in the North West very well. A particular highlight was how friendly the people of Derry have been. "Everybody says: 'Hello, how are you, how are you doing, what's the craic?" he added.
A group of Syrian refugees living in Londonderry have spoken for the first time about what life was like in their war-torn country.

Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane both hit centuries as India posted 622-9 declared in their first innings. Sri Lanka were never in the game once they were bowled out for 183 in reply. They managed 386 in their second innings - Dimuth Karunaratne making 141 - but India's spinners sealed victory on the fourth afternoon. Ravindra Jadeja picked up the man-of-the-match award after hitting an unbeaten 70 off 85 balls at number nine before taking 2-84 and 5-152 with the ball. India won the first Test in Galle by 304 runs. The third and final Test gets under way in Pallekele on 12 August. Jadeja will miss that match after he was suspended for a breach of the International Cricket Council's disciplinary code. The all-rounder pleaded guilty to the charge, which related to throwing the ball "in a dangerous manner" towards Karunaratne as he fielded off his own bowling on day three. He lost 50% of his match fee and earned three demerit points, taking him to a total of six in the past two years, leading to a one-game ban.
India completed a series win over Sri Lanka with a crushing victory by an innings and 53 runs in the second Test in Colombo.

Police in Hamelin, in Lower Saxony, say the woman's ex-partner later handed himself in to authorities. The 28-year-old woman, who has not been identified, was found lying on a pavement late on Sunday with serious injuries. She underwent an emergency operation and was flown to a specialist clinic. Police say she had been dragged by the neck through several streets. The man now in custody is described as 38 and from nearby Bad Muender. Both the victim and the suspect are German citizens of Kurdish origin, a police spokesman said. A spokesman for Hannover prosecutors, Thomas Klinge, said the motive for the attack was not yet clear. Police have secured the area where the woman was found and have called for witnesses to come forward.

Levein, the club's director of football, described finishing fifth in the Premiership, as "frustrating and a tad disappointing". "I've got high hopes for him [Cathro]," Levein said. "This is a tough place to manage, as I know myself. "The thing about here is the players like him." Levein points to mistakes in the January transfer window which saw Hearts sign nine players - six of whom have since left the club - as a chief reason for the underwhelming league campaign. Dylan Bikey, Tasos Avlonitis, Lennard Sowah, Andraz Struna and Alexandros Tziolis are all moving on while Moha Choulay is returning to parent club Stoke City. "Rushed is probably a fair assessment," Levein explained. "We've had six transfer windows since the club came out of administration [in 2014]. Four of them have been really good, the last two haven't been particularly good. "In hindsight, should we have given longer-term contracts to some of those players? The answer is probably no. "The fact we gave them short-term contracts has allowed us to still be in a position to be able to strengthen this summer and repair some of the damage." Levein says the "furore" surrounding 30-year-old Cathro since his arrival has been tough for the young head coach to deal with, but says the players enjoy working under him and will improve next season. "For him to be a real success here we need to give him time and let him understand what this is all about," Levein explained. "Then we can let him go and play how he wants to play, but we need to fix some other things first. "His problem early on has been understanding Scottish football, not understanding how he wants to play. "In this country just now, Celtic are in a class of their own, Rangers play a different style of football to other teams, but the rest play the same. "If you can't deal with long balls, second balls, wide crosses, then you can't impose yourself on the match. "His early experiences have been about understanding that part of it. Once he deals with that part of it I think it will allow his coaching abilities to come to the fore."
Craig Levein retains "high hopes" for Ian Cathro's Hearts tenure but says the club will seek to "repair the damage" of recent transfer windows.

School crossing patrol personnel numbers have dropped by about 75 since 2013, leading to fears about safety. Overall, councils spent £810,000 less on the service than three years ago. Stirling Council has reduced its outlay by the highest percentage, spending 50% less than in 2013. West Dunbartonshire cut its spending on patrol services by 40%. The figures were obtained from Freedom of Information requests answered by 30 of Scotland's 32 local authorities. It showed there are now just over 2,100 school patrol officers in Scotland. Despite the widespread reductions, some local authorities actually increased their spend - including Inverclyde, where it went up by more than 90% and Dumfries and Galloway, where it increased by nearly 10%. A spokesman for Stirling Council, which had the biggest cut to school patrol services, said the decision was made three years ago following substantial cuts to its overall budget. He added: "The majority of these savings were made by removing lunch-time crossing patrols and removing any patrols which duplicated existing crossing safety measures (i.e. pelican and zebra crossings nearby). The safety of our pupils is of the utmost importance and we strive to maintain key crossing patrol services where these are required." West Dunbartonshire said that patroller sites had been reduced due to a variety of factors including the relocation of schools, lack of use of sites and alternative facilities nearby. A spokesman for the council said: "Over the last three years a number of our school crossing patrollers have retired or moved on to other roles. "On review, some of the sites have no longer met the criteria for a crossing patroller and in other cases we have installed a pedestrian crossing. "Increasing numbers of pupils remaining in school over lunchtime has also meant that there is no longer demand for cover during these times." The Scottish Parent Teacher Council emphasised the importance of school patrollers for pupil safety. Eileen Prior from the organisation said: "Parents want to make sure that when they say goodbye to their child in the morning they can be confident they are going to be able to get to school safely. "The reality on the ground is that services and supports for education services are being cut at local authority level. Lollipop people provide an important service that parents really value." Figures also show that over the period between 2013-16, the number of children killed on the roads fell, although the number seriously injured increased slightly. The highest numbers of children were injured while walking during school drop-off and pick-up times. In 2013 there were five children killed while on foot and 92 seriously injured - compared to three children killed last year and 97 seriously injured. However, according to Sustrans - which promotes safe walking and cycling networks across the UK - the number of children walking to school has fallen dramatically. In its 2015 policy studies institute report, it cited figures from 1971, which showed 86% of children travelled home from school alone. That compared with figures from 2010 that showed only 25% walked to school. In Scotland child pedestrians are two-and-a-half times more likely than adults to be injured in road traffic accidents. Although accident rates are falling, more child and adult pedestrians are injured in road traffic accidents in deprived areas compared with more affluent areas. Over the past decade, in deprived areas, three times as many child pedestrians were injured than in less deprived areas. A spokesman for Cosla, the umbrella group that represents many of Scotland's councils, said the issue of cuts to school crossing patrollers was related to the overall drop in council funding from the Scottish government. He said: "People all over Scotland are becoming more and more aware of the impact of cuts to council budgets. "Each council will do everything in their power to restrict the impact of budget cuts on families and communities, but the nature of our work means that these cuts impact on everyone eventually. "We continue to advocate for a fair settlement for local government in Scotland and look forward to negotiations with Scottish government on this matter." A Scottish government spokeswoman said: "Spending on school patrollers is a matter for individual councils but the Scottish government has treated local government very fairly despite the cuts to the Scottish budget from the UK government. "Taking into account the addition of the £250m to support the integration of health and social care, the overall reduction in 2016-17 funding equates to less than 1% of local government's total estimated expenditure in 2016-17."
Two-thirds of Scotland's councils have cut the amount of money spent on lollipop men and women in the past three years, research by BBC Scotland has found.

Sarries will begin the defence of their domestic title against Worcester in the London Double Header at Twickenham on Saturday, 3 September. Barritt told BBC Radio London: "Last year was probably the most successful season in the club's history. "But we now have a fresh page to write a new chapter in the Saracens story." England centre Barritt, 29, played a key role in Saracens' momentous campaign, which culminated in their 28-20 victory over Exeter Chiefs in the Premiership final at Twickenham on 28 May. Two weeks earlier, they were crowned European champions after beating Racing 92 in Lyon, becoming the first team in the competition's history to win all nine games in the tournament on their way to picking up the trophy. However, Barritt believes they could face an even tougher challenge next time around. "This Premiership shows you that anyone can beat anyone on their day. You can't be fooled into any false sense of safety that it's just going to happen," he said. "The Premiership is the most competitive domestic league in the world. There's quality throughout and every team brings equal and different challenges." Barritt also said the "continuity of the squad" - of which eight were part of England's Six Nations-winning squad earlier this year - has been "a huge key" in their success. "We've been a very settled squad who understand each other, who've played together for a certain amount of time, and that's allowed those bonds to grow," Barritt added. "You can see by the intensity of training and the focus in the players' minds that the guys are very eager to make it another successful year." Meanwhile, Saracens are learning from the success of Australian Football League club Hawthorn Hawks as they seek to deliver another trophy-laden season. Hawthorn have won the last three AFL Championships and sit top of the table as they bid for an historic fourth in a row. "We've looked specifically at the Hawthorn Hawks in the AFL, who are [aiming for] a fourth championship in a row," Barritt told BBC Radio 5 live. "It's about the relentlessness of the organisation. It's about an organisation being hungry and being as driven as they have ever been, as if it's their first championship. "We are back-to-back Premiership champions and (now) European champions. We know those things don't come easily, and we know the next season is going to be that much harder because you are going to have a target on your back."
Premiership and European Champions Cup winners Saracens are determined to be even stronger next season, says skipper Brad Barritt.

Orla Galton, from Blackmill, Bridgend county, was diagnosed with leukaemia at three and blood transfusions helped save her life. She endured them for years, but her mother, Sharon, said they were a lifeline. The Welsh Blood Service wants 200,000 more donors to replenish stocks. "When Orla was having chemotherapy her bloods hit so low that she became anaemic, she would have no white blood cells so she couldn't fight any infection," she said told BBC Radio Wales. "It's quite a dangerous time as while their bloods are going down, they can't carry on with the treatment. Orla needed blood transfusions so she could keep having the chemotherapy." Orla, who has now been given the all clear, paid tribute to the donors who helped her. "I would just like to say thank you," she said. "I can't thank you more." The Welsh Blood Service said:

The animals were happily munching in the front garden of a house in Drummond Road close to its junction with the busier Culduthel Road. Police received calls from members of the public who were both concerned for the sheep and seeking to reunite the animals with their owner. Officers helped to have the sheep rounded up and returned to their home. It is understood the animals are kept locally.
Police have been called to deal with a small flock of sheep loose near Inverness city centre.

Christopher Hannah was driving a car which mounted the pavement and struck Sophie Brannan in Sandbank Street, Maryhill, on 14 November last year. Her friend Chelsea Sommerville, and Chelsea's uncle, Joseph Lloyd, were also badly injured. At the High Court in Glasgow, 33-year-old Hannah, who is said to be a heroin addict, admitted a charge of culpable homicide. Sentence was deferred. Following his guilty plea, the investigating officer Det Insp Colin Hailstones said: "This was an appallingly tragic case. "Many people in the community in Maryhill were deeply affected by this incident, particularly as it resulted in the death of young Sophie Brannan, whose life was sadly taken away from her at the age of 11 and at the hands of someone under the influence of drugs. "Police officers worked tirelessly to piece together the events of that fateful night and I must thank the many members of the local community and those injured who helped provide information about the incident." He added: "The strength shown from the community towards Sophie's family and the other people who were injured is unquestionable and much support continues to be given to them." The court heard that Hannah was driving a hired Vauxhall Astra in the area and lost control. He then fully mounted the pavement before hitting the gable end of a nearby building. The car continued to career forward eventually ploughing into Sophie and the two people with her from behind. Prosecutor Allan Nicol said: "This caused them to be thrown onto the bonnet, windscreen and roof of the vehicle before falling onto the ground." Another driver witnessed the crash and turned back to help Sophie. More witnesses saw Hannah speed onto nearby Maryhill Road with his badly-dented car being "driven erratically". He then crashed into a taxi whose driver decided to follow Hannah, who eventually stopped a short distance away. Mr Nicol added: "At that point, the accused was trying to pull the damaged front bumper then he stopped and walked away before starting to run off. "Both the taxi driver and his passengers noticed that he was under the influence of some substance." Medics found Sophie lying on the pavement. She was rushed to the Royal Hospital for Sick Children at Yorkhill where she was found to have swelling to her brain, several fractures and broken bones. The schoolgirl remained in intensive care overnight but was pronounced dead on the morning of 15 November. The court heard that Chelsea suffered a serious leg break which will require long-term physiotherapy. She continues to wear a cast several months after the tragedy. Mr Nicol added: "She also suffers episodes of withdrawal and angry outbursts. "She is due to attend for psychiatric assessment in order to come to terms with her injuries and the loss of Sophie." Chelsea's uncle also suffered a number of fractures, but was initially released from hospital two days later. However, he eventually required surgery and it is likely he will have "long-term restriction" of movement in his right shoulder. Police discovered the Astra had been hired in Hannah's name on 14 October. The court also heard that shortly after the incident, police searched the home of Hannah's partner, where he had been staying. Mr Nicol said tin foil wraps with signs of drug use were discovered. The prosecutor told the court: "On the day in question, she suspected he had been taking heroin as she was aware he is heroin-dependent." His partner revealed Hannah had come home earlier that night "in shock". Hannah had claimed he had hit someone, but did not know who. The killer said he was going to a house in the city's south side, but would return. Police were at the house when Hannah then called his girlfriend. She handed the phone to an officer and Hannah said: "I'm sorry - I didn't mean to do it. "It was a total accident. I lost control of the car and I panicked. I'm going to hand myself in tonight." The court heard that in the early hours of 17 November, Hannah turned up at a house in the city's Mount Florida area, but those inside decided to call police. Officers turned up and arrested Hannah, who initially tried to escape. He was later searched and eight grams of heroin were discovered inside his boxer shorts. The court heard how the occupants of the Mount Florida property later told police Hannah had called them on the night of the killing. Hannah said at the time: "There's been an accident - watch the news. The police have fitted me up. "I tried to get away and I have hit something. I don't know what." Mr Nicol told the court: "He went on to say he had driven like a madman and that the something he had hit could have been a wheelie bin...but he didn't hang about to find out." Hannah asked to stay for a while as the police were after him "because he had killed a wee lassie". Accident investigators later concluded Hannah was solely to blame for what happened. It was stated he took "a conscious decision" to drive while "impaired". They added that the reason for him not stopping was because he knew he had taken drugs and was "aware of the ramifications". As well as culpable homicide, Hannah also pleaded guilty to dangerous driving, attempting to defeat the ends of justice and possessing heroin. It emerged he already had 14 previous convictions for crimes including having an offensive weapon and road traffic charges. He was on bail at the time, having been freed from Glasgow's Justice of the Peace Court two months before the crash. Hannah's advocate Thomas Ross said: "He has asked to state publicly his apologies for those affected by this terrible tragedy." Lord Bannatyne remanded Hannah in custody and deferred sentencing until May.

The Academy Selsey suffered extensive damage and much of its contents was destroyed in the blaze on 21 August. The school's 453 pupils are currently being taught at four locations in the Selsey area. As well as classrooms, the temporary buildings will house science labs, workshops and food technology areas, the school said. The buildings, some of which have already been placed on the site by two large cranes, had previously been used to house staff and students from Bohunt School in Worthing while building work was carried out. Tom Garfield, head teacher of the academy, said: "We are absolutely delighted to see the first temporary school buildings arrive on site. It's a great milestone for us, the staff and students alike." He said once the remaining structures had arrived over the next few days the school would begin preparing the rooms for teaching.

A High Court judge in Belfast had ruled that the PSNI should not have facilitated illegal parades, and was wrong to think it did not have legal powers to stop them. The ruling was quashed after an appeal. The UK Supreme Court has now been asked to overturn the decision. There were widespread loyalist protests across Northern Ireland after Belfast City Council decided not to fly the Union flag at the City Hall every day of the year in December 2012. The protests included a weekly parade between east Belfast and City Hall, which passed the nationalist Short Strand area. Critics accused the police of being too soft as some of the protests descended into violence. The PSNI insisted it did not have the legal powers to stop them, and warned that doing so might have made the situation worse. In April 2014, a judge in the High Court in Belfast upheld a claim by a Short Strand resident, who cannot be named to protect his safety, that the PSNI had failed in its legal duty to stop the parades. The judge said the police had not understood the full scope of their powers and had facilitated illegal and sometimes violent parades, in breach of their legal duties. That ruling was appealed by then Chief Constable Matt Baggott, and quashed by the Court of Appeal. The legal battle moved to the UK Supreme Court in London on Tuesday. A lawyer representing the unnamed resident, told five judges the PSNI had failed in its duty to enforce the law as set out in the Public Processions Northern Ireland Act (1998). She argued that the Court of Appeal had no grounds to interfere and overturn the original trial decision as "the evidence before the court was unimpeachable". The lawyer said there were "evident flaws" in the Court of Appeal decision and its analysis of the evidence. Lord Neuberger, President of the Supreme Court, asked her: "So you say that we should go back to the trial judge and, provided we concluded that there was evidence on which he could fairly reach the decision that he did, that we should reinstate his decision?" She replied: "Yes." But a lawyer representing the PSNI said the Court of Appeal had made the correct decision. He said the context of the time the protests had taken place was important. He told the court the police had been dealing with a series of sporadic unplanned protests at more than 80 locations across Northern Ireland. He insisted there had been "no error of law" and that the police fully understood that they could have stopped the parades, but took an operational decision not to so. He said the police believed that "robust action" could have made the situation worse and took a deliberate decision to secure evidence of offences committed and to prosecute offenders afterwards. The lawyer referred to research by Queen's University, which recorded that 306 people had been convicted of flag-protest-related offences across Northern Ireland in the months after the protests. "Many would have considered the police approach to policing these parades was successful, and that their policy of de-escalation succeeded," he said. The judges said they would announce their decision "in due course".

Media playback is not supported on this device Three people who know Armstrong well gave their thoughts. The wife of former professional road cyclist Frankie Andreu, she claimed, long before his public confession, that Armstrong took banned substances and bullied team-mates. "When the going gets tough, he turns on the charm. He thinks if he can show he's a changed man it might benefit him. The problem with that is that he has no credibility. His actions speak louder than his words." Andreu believes there should be no way back into cycling for Armstrong. "He should forget it. He's not going back into sport. He should go and enjoy something else, enjoy his family. Everyone deserves a second chance, but how many does he want? What is he? A cat." The Sunday Times journalist first raised questions about Armstrong in 1999. He wrote LA Confidential, a book containing evidence that Armstrong used performance-enhancing drugs. "When I see an interview like he's just done with Dan Roan, I just feel this guy hasn't changed one iota. When he's saying everyone was doing it (doping), he's being so unfair to the people who rode the 1999 Tour de France and tours over the following years clean - and plenty did." Walsh believes Armstrong is struggling with being out of the limelight. "This is a guy who would get called up by he president of the United States and asked to go on a mountain bike ride, this is a guy who had direct access to people like Bill Clinton and John Kerry... Bono was a big mate of his. Now, no-one really wants to be associated with him - and that's tough if you were once in the place that Lance Armstrong was in." A former French road cyclist, his career effectively ended when he spoke out against doping in the 1990s. "The fact that he says that he doesn't regret it and that if he went back to the same time, he'd do it again... I think that shows an honesty." Bassons, who clashed with Armstrong after making his doping claims, also thinks the American has changed - or been changed. "When I saw him last year, it wasn't the Armstrong that I knew in the '90s any more. Back then, he was strong, he was hard, he would stare you in the eyes, he was brutal, he was strong and he would never make a mistake. But when I saw him last year, he was alone, he was badly dressed, he avoided eye contact, he didn't seem happy."
In an interview with BBC Sports editor Dan Roan, shamed cyclist Lance Armstrong said he should be forgiven for doping and lying - but also admitted he would probably cheat again.

The former police captain ran a covert counter-insurgency unit that detained and killed anti-apartheid activists. ­It operated in secrecy from Vlakplaas, a farm near Pretoria, recruiting black liberation movement members whom it turned into killers. He revealed the existence of Vlakplaas in 1989 when he was smuggled out of South Africa to write his story. Coetzee claimed responsibility for the killings of several African National Congress (ANC) members. He took refuge in London after exposing the group in an interview with a liberal Afrikaans newspaper. Once he was in exile, he joined the ANC, where he was known as Comrade Dirk with allegiance to Nelson Mandela, and himself became an assassination target for the white-minority government. He later returned to South Africa and joined the post-apartheid spy service after Mr Mandela became president in 1994. He was later convicted of murder, but granted amnesty by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission in 1997 when he publicly confessed to murdering a Durban human rights lawyer, Griffiths Mxenge. However, Coetzee failed to reveal the place where another activist, Sizwe Kondile, had been buried after being killed and burnt. Coetzee was central to many secrets of the apartheid era, but in giving him amnesty for his crimes, the Truth Commission found that he had simply been following orders from higher-ranking security police commanders. He died at Life Wilgers Hospital in Pretoria from kidney failure, a hospital spokeswoman said on Thursday.
Dirk Coetzee, one of the most notorious figures of South Africa's apartheid era, has died at the age of 57.

Frenchman Christophe Borgye's remains were found at a property in Ellesmere Port, Merseyside, in 2013 - four years after he was reported missing. Manuel Wagner, 29, has been found guilty of murder and sentenced to a minimum jail term of 16 years following a trial at Liverpool Crown Court. Two other men were convicted in 2014. Mr Borgye, 36, was killed in May 2009 and buried in the outbuilding of the house he shared with German national Wagner and fellow Frenchmen Sebastian Bendou and Dominik Kocher. Bendou contacted Cheshire Police in May 2013 and led officers to Mr Borgye's body, which was wrapped in tarpaulin and encased in thick concrete. Officers said a low brick wall had been built inside the outhouse with three layers of concrete placed over the body. A post-mortem examination found My Borgye died from hammer blows to the head. He had been reported missing by a work colleague, but after launching an investigation police said they believed he had left the country. Det Sgt Steve Currie said the case had been "complicated" and "devastating" for Mr Borgye's family, but added "the final jigsaw piece in this shocking crime is now in place". Wagner was previously found not guilty of assisting an offender and preventing a lawful burial. However, was re-arrested in 2015 when new evidence came to light. Bendou, now 39, and Kocher, now 38, were given life sentences for murder with minimum terms of 14 and 23 years respectively in 2014.
A third man has been jailed for murdering a flight attendant who was bludgeoned with a hammer and buried in a concrete tomb.

Mrs Schlafly was an outspoken opponent of feminism and abortion and helped Republicans block the Equal Rights Amendment in the 1970s. She campaigned against Communism and is credited with creating the political climate that helped Ronald Reagan become president. Mrs Schlafly publicly endorsed Donald Trump at a rally in March. Paying tribute to her on Monday, the Republican presidential candidate described Mrs Schlafly as "a patriot, a champion for women and a symbol of strength". Mrs Schlafly's death, in St Louis, was announced by the Eagle Forum, a conservative group she founded in 1972. It described her as an "iconic American leader whose love for America was surpassed only by her love of God and her family". Mrs Schlafly was a strong advocate of traditional family values and one of her crowning political victories was helping to stop the Equal Rights Amendment [ERA] from being added to the US Constitution. She once described feminists as "a bunch of bitter women seeking a constitutional cure for their personal problems". Donald T Critchlow, author of a biography of Phyllis Schlafly, said that defeating the ERA helped to usher in a new conservative era in US politics, paving the way for Ronald Reagan's election in 1980. The Eagle Forum said Mrs Schlafly was survived by her six children, 16 grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.

Rooney, 30, played in midfield rather than as a striker and came under fire following the shock defeat by Iceland. "He's our talisman, he's our greatest goalscorer, he's experienced and you don't want that to walk away at this stage," Lampard told BBC Sport. "I would want him in the team and in the squad. He has certainly got another tournament in him." Rooney has scored a record 53 goals in 115 appearances for his country. The Manchester United man was made England captain in August 2014 but has come under scrutiny for a number of disappointing displays. He found the net from the penalty spot after just four minutes against Iceland but underperformed for most of the game in Nice as England went out of Euro 2016 at the last-16 stage. In the wake of the defeat, Germany legend Lothar Matthaus said it was time for Rooney to retire from international football. "Sadly, when his team needed him, Rooney was not that leader," he said. "You need someone who can provide the impetus and rhythm. I thought Rooney could take the role but, when it mattered, he wasn't able to do it." Media playback is not supported on this device "I think once we reflect a bit more, Wayne will remain a big player in the squad and will help with the development of the younger players around him," insisted Lampard, who won 106 caps for England. However, the former Chelsea and West Ham midfielder thinks he needs to work out his best position for both club and country. Under Louis van Gaal, Rooney began to play in midfield as well as a striker but that may change now Jose Mourinho is manager of Manchester United. "I don't believe 31 is an age where you need to change position because of being 31, said Lampard, now playing in the United States with New York City. "I think Wayne still has the pace, the ability and the knowhow to play as a striker, but the choice will obviously be between him and his managers." Rooney has already said he would continue to be available for international selection. England's next game is a 2018 World Cup qualifier in Slovakia on 4 September. England should not be afraid of appointing another foreign coach as a successor to Roy Hodgson, said Lampard, who played under Swede Sven-Goran Eriksson and Italian Fabio Capello during his time with the national side. "Ideally, as a proud Englishman, you'd love an English manager," he said. "But I think, in the modern world, you have to accept that, if the options aren't there, you have to look abroad. "It wouldn't bother me if a foreign manager took an England team forward and was successful, not at all." England are looking for a new manager as Englishman Hodgson quit immediately after the defeat by Iceland. Under Eriksson, England reached the quarter-finals at three successive major tournaments, while Capello led England to the 2010 World Cup and a 4-1 defeat by Germany in the second round. "I think the best man for the job would be the starting point for picking the next manager," added Lampard, who would prefer a youthful boss, adding: "Over the last 10-15 years, when I was playing, we weren't setting a new tone. "I would look to a younger, forward-thinking manager who has a real strong idea about how he wants to play, plays good football, generates a good spirit in the team and go that way." But he believes it will not be a straightforward task for the Football Association. "I can't give you the name, which is the problem, but they will have to have a confidence in the decision they make," said Lampard. "They'll have to give him free reign to try to mould these good young players into a team that can fight at the top level."
Wayne Rooney still has a future with England despite their Euro 2016 failure, says Frank Lampard.

The partnership running the current system in Rhyl, Prestatyn and Rhuddlan say it is not sustainable and has agreed to pass it to Cheshire West and Chester council. The scheme will see 32 prioritised cameras beamed to England. If anything is spotted, officers will alert North Wales Police immediately. The system in the towns was run and funded by Denbighshire council until 2015. County council spending cuts saw it passed to a partnership of Denbighshire, three town councils and North Wales Police about a year ago for a trial period. In the last 12 months, the cameras have been operational 24 hours a day but have not been monitored full-time, with crime figures in the area remaining much the same. The network's server at Rhyl police station is said to be beyond its serviceable lifetime and, with a replacement costing about £80,000, grants are being sought. The partnership board prioritised 32 cameras in the three towns according to their importance in tackling crime and disorder and their contribution to the community. Ranked as lower priority, the remaining 48 cameras will not be repaired or replaced if they break.
The monitoring of CCTV cameras in three north Wales towns will be handed across the border to Chester.

Hadleigh Parkes and Gareth Owen went over for the Welsh side in the first half and Scarlets were good value for their 15-9 lead at half-time. But three Ian Madigan penalties kept Leinster within touching distance and they dominated the second half. Mike Ross' close-range try and Madigan's conversion soon after the restart put Leinster into the lead and another Madigan penalty capped the win. Leinster coach Leo Cullen had named a completely new starting XV for the game against the league leaders, his options boosted by the return of half-a-dozen Ireland internationals. Scarlets also had returning World Cup stars, with scrum-half Gareth Davies returning to the fold after Wales duty. The Welsh side took an early grip with a series of drives at the Leinster line that allowed centre Parkes the space to barrel over, his try converted by Dan Jones. Leinster responded to put Scarlets under pressure, with lock Jake Ball sin-binned for overstepping the boundaries during some frantic defence. In his absence Leinster closed the gap with two Madigan penalties, although they lost Rob Kearney to injury and there could be a nervous wait to see if the Ireland full-back is fit for Europe next weekend. Back to full strength, Scarlets stretched away again as number eight John Barclay joined the line to put Owen away for an unconverted try. Madigan added a third penalty but Jones responded in kind to ensure Scarlets took a six-point lead into the break, although it could have been more with Aled Thomas wide with a long-range kick. As well as Scarlets had played, they found themselves behind for the first time within five minutes of the restart as Ross went under almost under the posts for a converted try after a series of forward drives. Media playback is not supported on this device Johnny Sexton come off the bench for the home side, with the Ireland fly-half slotting in at centre outside Madigan. The combination almost produced a decisive try as Sexton loped away to the line, only to be denied by a crossing call confirmed by video replays. But Madigan added his fourth penalty to give Leinster a four-point cushion, although Scarlets at least had the consolation of a losing bonus point despite being dominated in the second half. Scarlets coach Wayne Pivac told BBC Radio Wales: "I'm very disappointed, I thought the boys played very well. I'm disappointed the breakdown was refereed one way, I thought. "The stream of penalties against us [made the difference], I thought we got into some really good positions over the ball and every other week we're getting penalties for that. "From where I was sitting, we got into some great positions for turnovers and didn't get the rewards... It should have been seven wins. "I don't think it takes anything out [of the season's momentum], the boys know they can compete with these sides now away from home. "That was the pleasing side of it, that we had an opportunity to win the game at the end but we probably blew it really. We got in behind them when Maselino [Paulino] had the big break and we bombed a try."

Graham Andrew bought the 33,600-piece Wildlife puzzle and recruited 200 jigsaw fans to complete it, to raise money for local charities. He was left with four holes in the giant puzzle and had to ask the Barcelona manufacturer to re-cut them. The pieces have arrived and the puzzle should be completed on Friday. Volunteers began piecing together the 5.7m (18.7ft) by 1.57m (5ft) picture of jungle creatures at a hall in Reepham on 14 August. Click here for more news, bit by bit, from Norfolk It was almost complete two weeks later, but, as reported by ITV, four pieces were missing. "Four out of 33,000 isn't that bad," Mr Andrew told the BBC. "I had bought a second puzzle just in case this happened. We sifted through for ages to find the pieces, and I was thrilled when we did." However, Mr Andrew realised the jigsaws were not identical and the back-up pieces did not fit. "I considered squishing them in, but decided it had to be done properly so I asked the company to re-cut them," he said. He had to send the surrounding pieces to the Spanish company so they could accurately make replacements. It is not yet known how the pieces went missing, but he said they probably fell into a handbag or "got stuck on a granny's cardigan" as she was helped out. Mr Andrew raised funds for the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital children's wards and Reepham nursery by asking people to sponsor puzzle pieces. The jigsaw will be displayed at the hospital and also taken to Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge.
An attempt at what is said to be the largest jigsaw puzzle on the market was nearly scuppered when four pieces went missing "somewhere in Norfolk".

He said it was "dispiriting if pretty unsurprising" to see David Cameron's government turn their back on the coalition's "liberal stance". The former deputy prime minister also criticised his former partners' "swagger" over the EU referendum. And, in his final speech to MPs as Lib Dem leader, he predicted the EU debate would "devour" Mr Cameron's party. A contest to replace Mr Clegg is under way after the election left his party with just eight MPs. "My party's presence may be much, much reduced in size, but our mission is clearer than ever," said Mr Clegg. He said new data monitoring powers, resisted by his party in government, represented a "turbo charged snooper's charter", and said there had not been enough to support social care and house-building. He accused the Conservatives of ditching their commitment to civil liberties. "The human rights we hold dear, our right to privacy in an online age, our future as an open-minded, outward-looking country, are all hanging in the balance again because of the measures announced today," he said. "The previous coalition government's commitment to fairness is weakened," he added. Mr Clegg said he sensed "a slight swagger" among the Conservatives over Mr Cameron's bid to repatriate powers from the EU, saying the PM was "ambivalent" towards the UK's place in Europe. And he called for electoral reform and wholesale changes to Britain's constitution, adding: "This sort of piecemeal tinkering does not go nearly far enough." He began his speech, in a half empty chamber, by saying it was "an unaccustomed surprise" to speak in the Commons without being greeted by a "disobliging wall of noise" from the opposition benches. Following the Lib Dem leader in the Commons, Conservative MP Andrew Mitchell said history would treat Mr Clegg's time as deputy prime minister more kindly than the electorate had.
Nick Clegg has accused the new Tory government of abandoning the values he said had been at the coalition's core.

LL Camps in Bushey, Hertfordshire, was closed by Ofsted last week and director Ben Lewis has been charged with possessing indecent images of children. Following the closure, parents vented their anger on the firm's Facebook page at the initial lack of information. But camp co-founder Tal Landsman has now said refunds will be issued. Ofsted closed the camp on 6 August and the company's website was taken down soon after. One parent whose child was due to attend the US-style day camp wrote it was an "utter disgrace". Another was concerned about parents who "could not afford alternative care without the refund". A man whose children had gone to the camp told the BBC: "Fortunately, for us they were only going for one further day, and then they were going to a different camp. "Had it been the situation that they were due to be there this week and all of next week, we'd be in a bit of bother." But on Wednesday, Mr Landsman confirmed parents would be able to fill in a refund form which has been placed on a holding page on the company's official website. Mr Lewis and Mr Landsman opened the holiday club in 2010.
Parents of children due to go to a summer camp whose director has been charged with possession of indecent images have been offered refunds.

The ex-Lib Dem MP and ex-wife Vicky Pryce were both jailed after she took his speeding points in 2003. Some 360 former MPs were granted passes for the Parliamentary estate, according to the Press Association's FOI request. Labour MP John Mann said Huhne should not have been given the pass. Mr Mann said: "I do not think someone who has committed a criminal offence that has meant they went to prison should get privileged access to the Houses of Parliament. "Let them queue with the general public if they want to get in." Huhne and Pryce both served two months of an eight-month sentence. Huhne had quit the Cabinet and stood down as Eastleigh MP after pleading guilty. Speaking after his release, he said prison had been "a humbling and sobering experience". Also on the passholders list was ex-Conservative minister Jonathan Aitken, who was jailed in 1999 for perjury and perverting the course of justice, and Derek Conway, who had the Conservative whip withdrawn and then stepped down as an MP after his employment of his son was heavily criticised.
Former Energy Secretary Chris Huhne - who was jailed for perverting the course of justice in 2013 - has been granted a Commons pass, a Freedom of Information Act request has revealed.

The man, who has not been named, was dismissed following disciplinary proceedings, Devon and Somerset Fire Service said. Molly Wigmore, 76, died in the fire at her Plymouth home in October last year. The first 999 call was made at 05:17 GMT but none had arrived by the time a second call was made at 06:44, ahead of a fire engine arriving at 06:50. Ms Wigmore's house, in Sussex Road, is about a mile and a half from Camels Head Fire Station. An inquest is expected to examine whether the delay played any part in her death, on 19 October. The fire service said in a statement it was unable to comment on the case until the inquest was over. "We continue to offer the family of the deceased our deepest condolences," the service added. Tributes left at the house said Ms Wigmore was an "inspirational, kind, gentle and sweet lady".

Having become the first Indian sprinter to reach a final at a global athletics event in 2013, the 18-year-old was already the national champion at 100m and 200m, and an Asian Games bronze medallist. Such was the excitement about her potential that the Sports Authority of India's director general Jiji Thomson described her as a "sure shot Olympic medallist" of the future, and a place in a final on her Commonwealth Games debut looked within her reach. But then, less than a fortnight before the opening ceremony in Glasgow, she "failed" a test that had nothing to do with fitness, form or even doping, and was dramatically withdrawn from the national team. Like South African 800m sensation Caster Semenya before her, Chand discovered - in bold newsprint - that her natural levels of the hormone testosterone were normally only found in men. It did not take long before reporters were outside her parents' humble home asking them and her six siblings if she was a boy or a girl. She has now been cleared to race by a landmark ruling questioning the validity of so-called gender tests around naturally high testosterone levels in female athletes. The Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas) has suspended the International Association of Athletics Federations' "hyperandrogenism" rules for two years. The rules will be scrapped if the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) cannot provide new evidence supporting them. However, Chand's career has been on hold for a year, leading to her missing both the Commonwealth Games and Asian Games after she refused to subject herself to the "corrective" treatment (hormone suppression therapy and sometimes even genital surgery) prescribed by the IAAF, International Olympic Committee (IOC) and other leading sports bodies. "I am who I am," said Chand with a mixture of defiance and dismay at the time. Instead of the sprinter she has spent years training to be, she became the focus of a challenge to sport's rules on gender, a cause celebre and evidence in a scientific debate about testosterone. Concerns about men masquerading as women to win medals have been around for almost as long as women have been allowed to play sport, which is surprising given how rare it is. In fact, the last case most people can agree on is German high jumper Dora/Heinrich Ratjen. He nearly won a bronze medal at the 1936 Olympics. Undeterred by the unlikelihood of a man successfully passing himself off as a woman, the IOC started comprehensive "gender verification" testing in 1968. Initially, this was done by asking female athletes to drop their underwear, but eventually a less humiliating method was found: checking swabs of cheek tissue for chromosomes, women being XX, men XY. Unfortunately, Mother Nature is not as black-and-white as your typical blazer would like his competitions to be, and it turns out there are a dozen different conditions that would once have been lumped under "hermaphrodite", but are now referred to by the less pejorative term of intersex, or disorders of sexual development. Sport first cottoned on to this when Spanish hurdler Maria Jose Martinez-Patino was told in 1985 that she was an XY "man", but refused to quit or feign injury (as it is widely believed many had before) and spent the next three years fighting ignorance and ridicule to line up alongside women again. She got there in the end, proving her Y chromosomes were the product of a rare genetic syndrome. She was also able to show that her condition meant she was insensitive to testosterone: it was in her blood, but it was no good to her. Sadly, Martinez-Patino's most competitive years were behind her. It is not known what happened to the 13 women who "failed" gender tests at Olympics between 1972 and 1984. But sport seemed to have learned something, though, mainly that it did not know enough about these complicated issues, and by the end of the 1990s gender verification was shelved, apart from in cases of extreme suspicion. And then Semenya burst onto the scene. A junior champion in 2008, the muscular teenager took seven seconds off her personal best for 800m over the next nine months, breaking the South African record and setting a world-leading time in the process. The IAAF felt "obliged to investigate", if only to rule out doping. Hours before the start of the 800m final at the 2009 World Athletics Championships, a race Semenya would win by a huge margin, it was leaked that the sport's governing body had also asked for a gender test. After Semenya's crushing win at the 2009 Worlds, a Russian rival sniped, "just look at her". A young girl with a rare condition, and an even rarer talent, was subjected to a medical examination by media. Semenya, now 24, returned to racing in 2010, and won silver medals at the 2011 Worlds and 2012 Olympics. But she has never run as fast as she did as an 18-year-old. Bruce Kidd, the 1962 Commonwealth champion in the imperial version of the 10,000m, the six miles, has spent the last half century as a leading academic in the field of physical and health education. The Canadian is also a self-confessed Olympian "of the old school", a champion of sport's ability to unite. "What a remarkable story Semenya should have been," said Kidd. "Wouldn't it have been better if the authorities had raised her hand as a great new champion? Instead they hit the moral panic button. "There has been a long current in modern sport that there must be something wrong with strong women. In the last 20 years it has become a kind of biological racism." Semenya's case provoked Olympic levels of hand-wringing. Ashamed at the leaks and lack of scientific rigour, but stung by the reaction to Semenya's physique from some quarters, the IAAF asked an expert working group to come up with a plan for women with "excessive androgenic hormones", or hyperandrogenism. Androgenic hormones are any natural or synthetic substance that control the development of male characteristics - everything from the formation of testes, to male pattern baldness - with the best known being testosterone. There is some disagreement over the normal spectrum of testosterone levels for men and women in general, but everybody agrees that typically there is a gap that emerges between the sexes during puberty. As we have seen, though, there are some women with conditions that give them masculine amounts of testosterone, which the IAAF's working group, in conjunction with the IOC's Medical Commission, decided was anything above the bottom of the male range, 10 nanomoles per litre (nmol/L) of blood. In April 2011, the new rules came into force. From this moment on, a confidential investigation could be made into any athlete where there were "reasonable grounds". This could be a complaint from a rival, or as a result of an anomaly in a drugs test. The process would be handled by experts, and "an effective therapeutic strategy" would be offered to any athlete found to have elevated levels of androgen. Part of this investigation would include finding out if the athlete is benefiting from the testosterone. As was seen in the Martinez-Patino case, androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS) means those elevated levels of the hormone can give a false picture of what is actually happening. But while all this is being established, the athletes are ineligible to compete. Sounds reasonable… doesn't it? Peter Sonksen is a professor of endocrinology (the study of hormones) at St Thomas' Hospital in London. It was his research for the IOC that eventually led to the development of an anti-doping test for Human Growth Hormone, but he is far from impressed with its work on testosterone. "They have got it completely wrong with this idiotic rule," Sonksen told me. "This rule is unfair, gross and unscientific. It is clear discrimination." Sonksen's main objection to the 10 nmol/L threshold is that the research he did for his HGH study found 16% of his male athletes had lower than expected testosterone, whereas 13% of his female athletes had high levels of testosterone "with complete overlap between the sexes". In other words, the gap that exists for testosterone between men and women in the general population does not exist among elite athletes. This research has been leapt upon by a growing body of campaigners who question the premise that testosterone is a significant factor in any discussions about differences between the sexes' athletic performances. For them, men's greater height, leaner body mass, narrower hips and higher counts of oxygen-carrying red blood cells are all more persuasive than testosterone. But this is where we enter disputed territory, and a number of experts reacted angrily to what they saw as the misuse of Sonksen's HGH data. For them, there is little doubt of testosterone's impact, although most admit it is part of the mix, as opposed to being the only ingredient. David Epstein is an award-winning writer for the US magazine Sports Illustrated, but he is perhaps better known as the author of "The Sports Gene", a myth-debunking look at "nature versus nurture". The book details the many physical differences between men and women, including testosterone, which, when you add them all up, explain why unisex sport is a non-starter for most athletic pursuits. As he explains, elite men's running times are about 11% faster than women's, with even bigger differences in jumping and throwing. "For lots of good reasons, we have decided to have a class of athletes who aren't men," Epstein explained. "But biological sex is not binary. That means whichever line you draw between men and women it is going to be arbitrary." For now, Epstein agrees with the IAAF's experts that testosterone is probably "the best line we can draw", although he would prefer it if those experts at least admitted they were making an educated guess. Joanna Harper is a medical physicist based in Oregon who could run two-hour-23-minute marathons as "a young man", but is now an age-group national champion as "an old lady". As part of her sex change in 2004, she had therapy to suppress her testosterone levels. For her, there is no real argument about testosterone's effect. "Women's sport is like a testosterone-handicap event," Harper told me. "But you cannot have women's equality without women's sport, so you have a dilemma with no perfect solution." There are two things that everybody does agree on: the women in question deserve to be treated with sensitivity and in confidence, and any consent they give to treatment must be informed. A 2013 report revealed that four female athletes from "developing countries" had recently come to France for hormone therapy and extensive genital surgery. These cases were dealt with anonymously, and as far as anybody knows they are still competing. But confirmation that young women are being operated on to comply with sport's rules on what "normal" female genitalia should look like has provoked outrage. Are male athletes subjected to the same scrutiny? The details of Chand's condition have not been published or leaked, thankfully, but it is believed she was offered hormone therapy and "feminising" surgery. It is ironic then that her failure to tick the "anonymity box" on her test form saved Chand from being rushed into medical procedures a probably traumatised teenager cannot be expected to understand. The media attention she has received has been intrusive at times, but it also alerted intersex campaigners to her fate. The first person to come to Chand's aid was Dr Payoshni Mitra, a researcher on gender issues, and she helped galvanise opinion behind taking Chand's case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport. "We were able to convince (the Sports Authority of India) that these rules are unethical and need to be abolished," said Mitra. "Institutionalised genital mutilation is just scary." Chand's challenge was filed at CAS last October, with the SAI paying the bill. Her supporters hoped to get her reinstated immediately and the IAAF rules ripped up within six months. An online "Let Dutee Run" campaign got 5,646 signatures and the Indian media massed behind her. In the end it was late July 2015 when Chand won her case and was allowed to run once more, with the IAAF "hyperandrogenism" rules suspended for two years pending further investigation. It is impossible to research Chand's story without developing huge sympathy for the position she found herself in. Her life was turned upside down. It is also clear that elite sport has always been about unfair advantages, be they Usain Bolt's long legs, Michael Phelps's out-of-proportion wingspan, or Sir Bradley Wiggins's cardiovascular system. Sport is not fair. But if women's sport is to have meaning there must be some boundaries. And if testosterone is so irrelevant, how do we explain the fact that many of the best performances ever achieved by women came during an era when they were pumped full of it as part of an ideological struggle between East and West? There are no easy answers here. As Harper, with her special insight into testosterone's effect, puts it: "A level playing field is probably impossible to ever achieve, but a more level playing field is worth striving for." This feature was first published in October 2014 and updated in the wake of Dutee Chand being cleared to race on 27 July 2015.
Life looked pretty good for Dutee Chand last July.

Media playback is not supported on this device Set 136 to win, Pakistan reached their target inside 15 overs, with Sharjeel Khan (59) and Khalid Latif (59 not out) sharing an opening stand of 107. It is England's joint-second biggest T20 defeat in terms of balls remaining and the third time they have lost by nine wickets. The home side earlier limped to 135-7, losing six wickets for 54 runs, and at one stage went more than seven overs without finding the boundary. This was a disappointing night at the end of an otherwise successful limited-overs summer for England, one in which they have won one-day series against Sri Lanka and Pakistan, as well as the only T20 against the former. Here, on an ideal batting surface, they could not get on top of a Pakistan attack whose four pace bowlers cleverly varied their length and pace, along with left-arm spinner Imad Wasim, who did not concede a boundary. Then the dazzling strokeplay of Sharjeel and Latif delighted a packed, partisan and deafening Old Trafford, ending Pakistan's tour on a considerable high. Defending a modest total, England needed everything to go their way in the field. Instead they were hit by a storm of boundaries from Sharjeel and Latif. Whereas England struggled to find the fence - they hit only 10 fours and one six - Pakistan's first 36 runs came exclusively in fours, in the space of four overs. Left-hander Sharjeel and his right-handed partner Latif took advantage as England too often dropped short, with captain Eoin Morgan forced to turn to Joe Root's occasional off-spin inside the powerplay. When Morgan called on his frontline spinners, Sharjeel twice lofted Adil Rashid over the mid-wicket fence to reach a 30-ball half-century. Rashid at least had Sharjeel sky to Moeen Ali at cover, then had a stumping chance missed by Jos Buttler to reprieve Babar Azam. But by then, the result was not in doubt, Latif clubbing Moeen over cow corner to complete his half-century in 36 balls and Babar hitting Liam Plunkett for four to seal the win. England's problems began long before then, in a batting effort that was stifled by the accuracy, variation and execution of Pakistan's five bowlers. Alex Hales and Jason Roy added 56 for the first wicket but, after Roy was given lbw reverse-sweeping the brilliant Imad for 21, England slipped to 110-6. Hales was bowled by Imad for 37 before the quartet of pacemen, three of whom are left-armers, took over. Using changes of pace, Hasan Ali had Joe Root and Ben Stokes caught at third man and deep square leg respectively, while the excellent Wahab Riaz had Morgan edge behind and Buttler slap to deep point. In all of this, England went from the end of the 10th over to midway through the 18th without finding the rope. When David Willey finally hit Sohail Tanvir to the mid-wicket fence, it was the only boundary England hit in the second half of their innings. England captain Eoin Morgan on BBC Test Match Special: "Probably the last two overs of our innings and the first three of Pakistan's, the conditions really did change. We got it wrong with the toss. "Pakistan bowled really well and we were about 15 short on the wicket we batted on. On the wicket we bowled on, we would have needed 185." England coach Trevor Bayliss on Sky Sports: "The game was all about momentum. The way we were going allowed Pakistan to get on top. We didn't show urgency with our running. We played like pretty boys at one stage. "It is a concern if we do lose the last game of a series. We want to win every game. You can coach all you want but it's got to come from within." Pakistan captain Sarfraz Ahmed on BBC Test Match Special: "First of all, credit must go to the players, who have responded really well. The bowlers bowled really well and then so did Sharjeel and Khalid. "The crowd was really good. It was like playing a home game."
England were thrashed in their final international of the summer, losing the sole Twenty20 match against Pakistan by nine wickets at Old Trafford.

Olly Martins said the force, which has to save £7.5m over the next two years, spends £3m a year on its buildings. But changes in policing technology meant officers could now share facilities, he added. The Police Federation said it would be concerned that officers in shops may look "unprofessional". Mr Martins said many of the county's police buildings were in need of refurbishment and no longer in the best position to serve the public, while others were under used. An online public survey opens on Friday to asses residents' views. The survey answers will help gauge support for replacing some stations with more accessible facilities in public areas such as public buildings and supermarkets. The PCC said operational policing was already running at maximum efficiency, so he must look to other areas. Changes to modern policing due to the use of technology, meant "innovative ways of increasing access to the police while reducing overheads" could be considered, he added. "In the future officers will be able to carry out much of their communications and administrative tasks while on the move, which reduces the demand on premises and increases their visibility," he said. He said no decisions had been taken yet but "tough choices" needed to be made. Ray Reed from Bedfordshire Police Federation, said he was not resistant to change, but "had concerns" over response times and perception. "People already complain about response times and if you close down stations it will make things worse," he said. "Plus I would be worried about how police would be perceived in supermarkets, it may look unprofessional. "And [in public buildings] there is a risk element as you may get someone becoming aggressive in full view of the public. "[Police carry out] sensitive functions in the community and we have to think how and where we place them."
Some Bedfordshire police stations could be relocated to supermarkets to help bridge a funding gap, its Police and Crime Commissioner said.

Tests have shown rat poison killed the female bird of prey, which was discovered in a quarry in Penmaenmawr in June. North Wales Police said this was the second suspicious death of a peregrine falcon in the last few months. The protected bird is a threat to racing pigeons and officers are appealing to the community for help. "It is very sad that a highly protected and rare bird is being wiped out of north Wales because someone is laying poison indiscriminately for their own gain," said Sgt Rob Taylor. "We are aware of the reasons and methods of poisoning and also the locations of our birds, so we will be working closely with the RSPB and other voluntary societies to put a stop to this practice and catch the offender." Last month, four peregrine falcons were found dead in their remote nest at a quarry in Gwynedd. One adult and three chicks were discovered in the nest at Dyffryn Nantlle and police suspected foul play.
A peregrine falcon found dead in Gwynedd was poisoned, police have confirmed.

Joe Murphy's scrambled early goal was the ideal start for Down and they led 1-8 to 0-6 at half-time. With Caolan Mooney starring, the Mournemen extended their advantage to six midway through the second half. Meath reduced Down's lead but they home side held on after a nervous finish. Down went into the game propping up Division Two after disappointing opening defeats by Fermanagh and Clare. County secretary Sean Og McAteer felt compelled to release a length statement on Thursday night denying reports of unrest within Eamonn Burns' squad and Saturday's win will be a huge boost for the management. After hammering Derry at Navan two weeks ago, Meath were favourites heading into the Pairc Esler contest but the Mournemen produced a performance of grit and determination to chisel out the vital Division Two victory. Murphy's goal, as he flicked a mishit Darragh O'Hanlon free past Paddy O'Rourke, was the perfect start for the home side as they were never headed in the contest. With midfielder Peter Turley putting himself about and former under-age star Mooney producing his best game in the Down senior jersey, the home side pushed on from leading only 1-1 to 0-3 to move five ahead by the interval. O'Hanlon slotted three first-half frees while the impressive Conor Maginn, Barry O'Hagan (two), Ryan Johnston and Aidan Carr also got on the scoresheet for Down in the opening period. Fresh from his Sigerson Cup heroics with St Mary's, Kevin McKernan also excelled in the opening period for the Mournement as Meath laboured, with free-taker Donal Lenihan hitting three of their points. A McKernan point extended Down's lead to 1-11 to 0-8 by the 52nd minute after a great block at the other end by Carr had prevented Brian Menton for netting a Meath goal. After their struggles in recent times, it was not a surprise to see Down attempting to hold on to their lead in the closing stages and Meath, helped by the introduction of the speedy Eamonn Wallace, reduced the margin to three by the time the game entered injury time. Inevitably, there was a late scare for Down as Lenihan aimed for goal from his last-gasp 13-metre free and the ball skimmed off the crossbar over for a point before the final whistle was blown seconds later.

But they have no need to do that now. O'Neill is taking his side into a Euro 2016 clash with the world champions in Paris with a place in the competition's knockout stage at stake. As he told the Irish Times, he needed to hitch-hike with some Germans during a scouting trip to Euro 2012, shortly after he had taken the job. But he doesn't plan on returning any favours this time around. O'Neill's and a friend went to the last European Championships in Poland and Ukraine to cast an eye over Portugal and Russia, who would be among Northern Ireland's opponents in their qualifying group for the 2014 World Cup. He said they rented a car in Poland and but were not allowed to take it out of the country, which caused them a problem when they went to cross the border into Ukraine. Crossing the Irish border is much easier than venturing between the two eastern European countries, he said, but German fans were on hand to help out. "That border's not like Newry is today, there were checkpoints and all that," he said. "We had a brainwave when we saw this bus with Germany fans - lots of people were staying in Poland and going across to Ukraine," he explained. He "approached this wee bus" and soon they were on their way to the Ukrainian city of Lviv. "My mate tried to explain what we were doing and who I was, so that we could get on," he said. "They didn't know who I was, I was only in the job about six months, so when we got on they started to Google me and 'Northern Ireland manager' to see who I was. "I didn't have accreditation or anything, we just wanted to go on our own steam." O'Neill said he "wanted to go to the tournament and see what it's about" from a fan's point of view. "I wanted to see Russia and Portugal and I saw them both twice," he said. But now he and his team are making an impact at the tournament for real - a win against Ukraine in Lyon last week means they are within touching distance of extending their stay in France. "We belong in this tournament," he said. "I sampled that one, now we're in this one and we're part of it." One thing is for certain - if O'Neill leads Northern Ireland to a shock result over Joachim Low's global stars on Tuesday, his stock will only rise higher. And no German fan will never need to Google his name again.
It's a mark of how much Michael O'Neill has achieved as Northern Ireland boss - this time four years ago a group of Germany fans he met had to Google his name to find out who he was.

Gary Nixon, 44, fled to Scotland after advertising tickets online for the Sweden v England match in Germany and said he could arrange accommodation. But two victims from Ogmore Vale, Bridgend county, received nothing. Nixon, of Dundee, admitted obtaining property by deception at Bridgend magistrates. Nia James, prosecuting, said: "He left his home address in the south Wales area after realising he was in trouble and couldn't refund the money." The court heard Nixon was forced to "beg and borrow" under false names when he lived in Fintry, Dundee. Magistrates were also told he "had lost everyone and everything over this passage of time" all because of his World Cup con but was now in full-time employment in England and was keen to pay his victims back. A third victim could not be traced. Magistrates ordered him to pay his victims back the sums of £590 and £220 and he must do 80 hours unpaid work.
A conman who went on the run for nine years after staging a £900 scam selling England tickets for the 2006 football World Cup, has handed himself in.

With Jurgen Klopp's side sitting in third, it could prove to be a valuable goal as they push for Champions League football - but was it the goal of the season? Media playback is not supported on this device "We scored a fantastic goal," Klopp said. "Actually, I would love to see it again - everybody is speaking about it. "I only saw it once but it looked already pretty nice. I turned a little early and didn't see it hit the back of the net. "He is a good boy, a good player and he deserves it," added the German manager. Liverpool have not been strangers to special goals this season - with midfielders Jordan Henderson, Sadio Mane and Georginio Wijnaldum all winning Match of the Day's Goal of the Month competition. With 11 goals in 100 career league starts, Can is not the most frequent goalscorer, and the player admitted himself that his strike at Vicarage Road was his best to date. "I have never scored a goal like that - maybe when I was younger. That is the best goal I've ever scored," Can said. "I saw the space and I ran behind and my first thought was that I wanted to head it, then I didn't think too much." Team-mate Adam Lallana, who made his return from injury as an early substitute, said that Liverpool players will be allowing Can to try more acrobatic efforts in training. "He does like to try speculative efforts, and we will not have a pop now after he produced that," said the England midfielder. "It was a 'worldy' goal, worthy of winning any game. "Credit to him, he was brave enough to try it and it flew into the top corner." The goal of the season will be chosen at the end of the campaign. Tottenham's Dele Alli won the award last season for his strike at Crystal Palace, and the last Liverpool man to win the honour was none other than Steven Gerrard for his brilliant winner in the 2006 FA Cup final.
It was only his seventh Premier League goal since arriving from Germany three years ago, but Emre Can's sensational overhead kick was enough for Liverpool to beat Watford on Monday night.

The Street & Arrow food truck, in Glasgow's Partick, is to take on additional trainees by March 2017. And it plans to expand operations across Scotland to address the social challenges of those with criminal convictions. The scheme has received £208,000 of Scottish government funding. The social enterprise company behind the project, Braveheart Industries (BHI), operates the airstream-style food truck providing training, mentoring and support for offenders who have made a commitment to change their lives away from violence and crime. It is supported by Police Scotland's Violence Reduction Unit (VRU) BHI trades under the banner of Street & Arrow in a play on the phrase "straight and narrow", which often describes the aim of people with convictions. It is based on the successful Homeboy Industries Programme in Los Angeles, which has taken on more than 10,000 former gang members in an effort to make a positive change. The BHI social enterprise model was initially targeted at deprived areas in Glasgow, but Insp Iain Murray of the VRU said it is hoped to expand the idea across Scotland. "There is a need in many locations. We would like to see this throughout the country," he said. "These are guys and girls who deserve a second chance. If we don't give them a second chance, the risk is they become a risk to everyone else. "So it's important to offer them hope and opportunity. "They are keen to show they want to make amends, to be productive members of society and the community, to demonstrate to their families and their kids that this is the way things should be." One of the trainees working on the food truck, Leanne Bell, 27, has a history of drug and alcohol dependency, and has served sentences in the women's prison, Cornton Vale. She said she had now been clean for a year, and was happy that customers could see an ex-offender putting something back into the community. "It's proof that you can change. Your life doesn't need to be chaotic and there is a way out," she said. "I'm earning a proper wage, and I'm paying taxes now. I have a place of my own and I'm paying the council tax, so I am contributing to society." Justice Secretary Michael Matheson said it was important that members of the public being served at the food truck know that offenders taking part must be free from drugs or alcohol dependence. "This is a very good example of individuals who are seeking to turn their lives around by trying to get themselves into employment and put something back into the community. "It's a facility which is well valued in the local community, it's well used, and it's also producing a very high quality and high standard of food and drink. "What's important here is equipping these individuals with the skills to be able to move into employment in the future, and we know in the catering industry there are opportunities to move into that industry." BHI has operated with offenders at the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo since 2012, and in the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games. It also works with prisoners in HMP Shotts, preparing them for a crime-free life on the outside.
Offenders with a violent history are to be offered a new chance to change their lives, following the success of an American-style training project.

The news has prompted headlines around the world, and Politicians and city leaders have taken to Twitter to congratulate him, including the left-leaning mayors of New York and Paris. Congratulations also came from Ahok Basuki Purnama, the governor of Jakarta. He became Jakarta's first Christian governor in 50 years when he was elected in 2014. Jemima Goldsmith, the sister of Conservative party rival Zac Goldsmith, congratulated Mr Khan on his victory. The ex-wife of Pakistani cricketer and politician Imran Khan also appeared to criticise her brother's campaign. The New York Times describes Mr Khan's victory as "striking" and leads with the fact that he is London's first Muslim mayor. It described London as a city with an acute shortage of affordable homes and a creaking, overcrowded mass transit network. A commentary in German news magazine Der Spiegel describes Mr Khan's win as a "victory over Islamophobia", and says London is breaking new ground. "The mayoral election shows that London is more liberal, clever and tolerant than the Conservative mudslingers would like to think," it says. Qatari daily Al-Sharq says: "Once again, the British capital enters history, this time through the gate of democratic victory by electing a Muslim of immigrant descent as its mayor." Pakistan's Dawn newspaper says that Khan should see himself as a role model for millions of Muslims living in Europe. With the rise of increasingly popular right-wing parties across the continent, the paper's Brussels correspondent Shada Islam writes that "Khan's story should help set the record straight on immigration, integration and European Muslims". History Professor Juan Cole points out that Mr Khan is by no means the first Muslim in charge of a European city. In a popular blog post he traces the history of Muslim rule in Spain, Greece, the Balkans, and Sicily. "Not to mention that Constantinople/Istanbul is one of the larger European cities... the mayor there is a Muslim," he says. Baroness Sayeeda Warsi, former co-chair of the UK Conservative Party, and Business Secretary Sajid Javid congratulated Mr Khan and pointed out their similar backgrounds. "Bus drivers are clearly the new Etonians" quipped writer and conservative activist Tim Montgomerie, referring to the elite public school attended by Prime Minister David Cameron and Mr Goldsmith. In France's Le Figaro, London-based French essayist Laetitia Strauch-Bonnart says "two images of the United Kingdom" faced each other in this election: The "exemplary success story" of Mr Khan's life and "the billionaire's son", Mr Goldsmith. "In order to appeal nowadays, it is better to have a disadvantaged background, a personal history made of difficulties and social mobility," she told the paper. "It's the spirit of the time, and Goldsmith was not on the right side." Finally, before the result was in, former Swedish prime minister Carl Bildt tweeted a warning about how Mr Khan could possibly be treated if Republican hopeful Donald Trump was to become US President.
Labour's Sadiq Khan has been elected Mayor of London, becoming the city's first Muslim mayor.

The 27-year-old will not need surgery after breaking his leg in an innocuous clash with Reds winger Raheem Sterling. Latics boss Roberto Martinez said: "It is not as bad as it could have been." Watson, who spent two nights at the Royal Liverpool Hospital, has now returned home to begin his recovery and will wear a cast for a few weeks. The club are optimistic he will be able to resume training in the new year. Martinez added: "It's still a very serious injury and we need to ensure that Ben is given all the time that he needs to make a full recovery. "The good news is that he won't be out for as long as we initially thought and, with the character that Ben has, he will be able to deal with such an injury." Former England Under-21 international Watson collapsed to the Anfield turf clutching his right leg shortly after the half-hour mark of Saturday's Premier League match. But he waved away the help of a stretcher and limped off with the support of Wigan medical staff. Watson, who joined from Crystal Palace in a £2m deal almost four years ago, had been in and out of the side this season but had started the last three Premier League games. Martinez said: "Ben has just started to put his stamp on the team and he will be missed in the group because of the type of lad he is."
Wigan midfielder Ben Watson could be back in training within six weeks despite suffering a fractured shin in the 3-0 defeat at Liverpool.

The National Lottery support for Aberystwyth University's Old College was announced on Wednesday. It comes as part of a £22m plan to turn the Grade I-listed building into a centre for heritage, learning and enterprise. It is hoped the work will be completed in time for the university's 150th anniversary in 2022. A performance and gallery space will be created for artists, exhibitions and musicians and there will be a centre for entrepreneurs and new businesses, a cafe and community rooms. The college will also house a university museum, allowing some of the 20,000 items normally in storage to be shown. A new science centre will showcase interactive displays alongside a planetarium and 4D facility, highlighting the university's links with the European Space Agency. The college was bought in 1867 by the University of Wales for just £10,000, using money donated by the community. It first opened its doors to students in 1872 - before focus shifted in the 1960s when the university moved to a new campus. John Glen MP, announcing the funding, said it was "recognised as one of the UK's most significant pieces of Gothic revival architecture". The university is still looking at ways to raise additional funds, including a major appeal. Ceredigion MP Ben Lake said: "This is great news for Ceredigion and will reveal the hidden history of an iconic landmark as well as paving the way for its future. "The Old College will once again be recognised as a beacon of culture and creativity, and a major catalyst for economic and social regeneration."
More than £10m has been secured to restore an iconic university college in Ceredigion.

A painting of Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria fetched the highest price at Saturday's sale, selling to a Chinese buyer for £71,000 (100,000 euros). A still-life of carnations, signed A Hitler, fetched £52,000 (72,000 euros) at the Nuremberg event. Last year the same auction house sold a watercolour painted by Hitler in 1914 for £93,000 (129,000 euros). The auction was organised by Weidler Auctioneers of Nuremberg, which said bidders included private investors from Brazil, the United Arab Emirates, France and Germany. It did not identify the buyers or the sellers. Although Hitler is considered a mediocre artist, his artworks command high prices when they go under the hammer. Germany's Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ) reports that Hitler paintings can be sold under German law provided they do not display any Nazi symbols. FAZ said these were believed to be by Hitler - and most were signed "A Hitler". But it cautioned that "countless forgeries [of Hitler paintings] exist". The future dictator sought admission to the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts in the 1900s but was rejected twice. He went on to become Germany's military and political leader from 1933 to 1945, launching World War Two and causing the deaths of millions.
Watercolours and drawings by Adolf Hitler have fetched £286,000 (400,000 euros) at a German auction.

The players, who thrashed Japan 5-2 on Sunday in Vancouver, will ride an open-topped bus down a stretch of Broadway commonly known as the Canyon of Heroes. It's a rare honour for athletes that do not come from New York, but pressure has been building in recent days to honour their achievement. The game was the most-watched football match in US history. A 13-minute hat-trick by Carli Lloyd blew Japan away early in the match, watched by an average of 25.4 million viewers, peaking at 30.4 million. President Barack Obama was among those to pay tribute to their success, which was the third time the USA women's team had won the World Cup. A rally was held in Los Angeles for the team on Tuesday, and hours later the parade was announced by New York Mayor Bill de Blasio. The last time the city honoured a team of national athletes was in 1984 after the Los Angeles Olympics.
A ticker-tape parade in Lower Manhattan on Friday will honour the USA's World Cup-winning women's football team.

Opponents fear the development on the site in Hermitage Lane, Allington, will destroy ancient woodland and cause traffic gridlock. Developer Croudace Homes said the number of homes had been reduced from 600 and efforts made to cut the impact on the woodland of building a new road. The public inquiry in Maidstone is expected to last until 10 June. Barbara Woodward, from the New Allington Action Group (NAAG), said: "People are very upset. This is our last piece of green land. "We take our dogs for a walk in the woods, you can let them off their leads. If they build a road across the woods it will no longer be safe." She added that the inquiry was the "last step" to protect the woodland which she said had been on the site since the 14th Century. Councillor Fran Wilson, the Lib Dem leader of the borough council, said it would be "inappropriate" for the authority to comment at this stage. Following the public inquiry a recommendation will be made to the Secretary of State who will make a decision on the planning application.
An public inquiry is under way into plans for up to 500 new homes in an area of open land in Kent.

"If I'd been in her shoes, I would have sacked me too," he told the BBC. Mr Gove said he regretted standing for the Tory leadership, saying he made "mistakes" in the way he withdrew his support from Boris Johnson. He now had to take the consequences of his decision, including the fact that an act of treachery has become widely known as "doing a Gove", he said. The 49-year-old former justice secretary made the comments during an interview with Fern Britton, to be broadcast on BBC One on Sunday. He appeared to suggest he had not given up on a return to front-line politics, saying he hoped to "make a contribution" in the future. Mr Gove said his decision to back Leave in the EU referendum had placed a "significant strain" on his relationship with his long-term friend David Cameron. He and his wife, Daily Mail journalist Sarah Vine, had been close friends with Mr Cameron and his wife Samantha - but the two couples have not had a "proper conversation" since the 23 June poll, he said. Mr Cameron quit as prime minister after he lost the EU referendum, sparking a leadership campaign which saw Mr Gove back Boris Johnson. He then changed his mind and decided to run himself, publicly questioning Mr Johnson's ability to do the job. Mr Gove would not reveal what Mr Johnson said to him when they spoke after he withdrew his support, but he conceded that "the way in which I declared my stand for the leadership, I shouldn't have done it that way". "As I look back on that time, I think that there were mistakes that I made... "I also think that my initial instinct that I was not the best person to put themselves forward as a potential prime minister, well most of my colleagues agreed." After Mrs May entered Downing Street, Mr Johnson entered the cabinet as foreign secretary, while Mr Gove remains on the Conservative backbenches. "When Theresa May became prime minister she said that she no longer had a place for me in the cabinet and, to be honest, if I'd been in her shoes I would have sacked me too," said Mr Gove. "So I entirely accept that sacking me at the time was the right thing to do. "I had six years when I was a government minister. I had a chance to make a difference - I hope that I did." But he conceded that "nothing is forever in politics". "I have to accept that the way in which I spent the final week or so of my ministerial life involved my making mistakes and having made mistakes you have to take the consequences." Mr Gove said he is now focusing on his work on the Commons committee on exiting the EU and wanted to campaign for children at risk of abuse or neglect. Fern Britton meets Michael Gove can be seen on BBC One at 10:00 GMT on Sunday, 11 December.

9 May 2015 Last updated at 09:34 BST Gentoo penguins tend to live in ice-free areas near Antarctica, and make special circular nest made out of stones, moss and feathers. Their steam-lined bodies mean they can swim up to 22 miles and hour underwater, faster than any other diving bird. Senior penguin keeper at the zoo Dawn Nicoll said: "We are really happy that the first of the gentoo penguin eggs have hatched".
Egg-cellent news the first gentoo penguins chicks have arrived at Edinburgh zoo this year.

Stella has spent a number of years travelling to a variety of countries, working as a nanny and teaching French to children. Her latest job has taken her to Saudi Arabia. "I've shot neon in a lot of locations," says Stella. "But it's the way it is used in Saudi which interested me the most. Partly because of the way it looks aesthetically in that environment - the empty roads and pitch-black desert sky give it a very stark appearance, and partly because, as Saudi friends have explained to me, it has a real cultural significance there. "Light is very spiritually important, but we also forget that it's a very young country - within any family, you'll have older generations who remember a time before they even had electricity. So now that it's arrived, there's a real love for, and status attached to, this kind of artificial light. "It feels more powerful in a country which is predominantly open desert - it's pitch dark in a lot of Saudi at night, with these vast, beautiful skies. In that environment, a neon light travels a huge distance and feels very powerful. It's like a modern version of the campfire." Stella is self-taught, having been given a camera for her 30th birthday - but she notes that once she starts to photograph a subject, she usually keeps going until she can get it out of her system before moving on to something new. And once she had noticed the neon, she set about taking lots of pictures. "I was asking my driver in Saudi about it, and he liked the idea of my project so agreed to drive me around in the evening," she says. "I had a break when the people I worked with went for their meal to break the fast during Ramadan, so the streets were pretty empty. "That suited me, because I was more interested in looking at the actual physical geography of the place. So we went out every night, drove around until I saw something which looked right, and then we shot very quickly - there was no real set-up or off-camera lighting. It was just a case of me getting out of the car, shooting, then getting back in." Stella was also keen to avoid what she sees as the visual cliches people often fall into when photographing the country. She says: "I felt really lucky that I got to travel there and see it. I wanted to take pictures which captured how I felt when I was there, and the neon did that. I hope the photos give other people an insight into what the real country behind the headlines is like as well." NOUR by Celine Stella is published by No UFOs.

Bright neon strips of light that punctuate the dark skies of Jeddah in Saudi Arabia caught the eye of Celine Stella, who set out to photograph them whenever she had a spare moment.

The Romanian diners, who had paid a deposit of €900 ($950; £770), left the El Carmen restaurant in Bembibre as dessert was due to be served, Antonio Rodriguez said. "It happened in the space of a minute," he said. "It was something they had planned and they left in a stampede." The diners owe €2,000 more, he said. Mr Rodriguez gave police the details on the reservation but said he held out little hope of being repaid. Police told El Pais newspaper they had not yet been able to contact any of the diners. The diners had consumed starters, a main course and 30 bottles of various alcoholic drinks, he said, adding that it was the first time in 35 years of working in the restaurant trade that he had seen seen anything comparable.
Some 120 diners celebrating a baptism at a restaurant in a north-western Spanish town all fled the restaurant at once without paying, the owner said.

The 40ft (12m) whale was discovered by wardens at the Holkham National Nature Reserve on Thursday. The Cetacean Strandings Investigation Programme (CSIP) was contacted and a post-mortem examination is expected to be carried out. Evolutionary biologist Dr Ben Garrod said it was "really unusual" for a fin whale to be found on the east coast. For more on the whale and other stories, visit the BBC Norfolk Live page "It should not be in those waters," he said. "We see fin whales occasionally on the southern coast or more the west coast of the UK, so Ireland, right up to Scotland. "But you never get them in the North Sea so what it was doing there, we have no idea at the moment." Dr Garrod, who is based at the Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge, said it was not yet known what killed the whale. He said: "There are no obvious signs of net entanglement, no obvious signs of boat strike, not a clue, and that's what is so interesting." The beach has remained open but Holkham Estate has urged members of the public not to venture close to the whale carcass and to keep dogs on leads. Dr Garrod also urged members of the public to show the whale respect. He said graffiti was found on the sperm whales which were washed up on the Norfolk coast in January. "I would be heartbroken to see that happen to this big, beautiful visitor to our waters," said Dr Garrod.
An expert has been left puzzled as to why a fin whale has washed up on the coast of north Norfolk.

Linda Norgrove, from Lewis in the Outer Hebrides, had been working in the country when she was kidnapped. Former colleagues have told a BBC Alba documentary that her captors told Ms Norgrove she was only being held hostage as a bargaining tool. The 36-year-old was killed by a US grenade during a failed rescue attempt. Ms Norgrove had been working on humanitarian projects in Afghanistan in 2010 when she was seized by rebels. Colleagues still working in the country told BBC Alba that her captors told Ms Norgrove they did not intend to kill her. She was led to believe she was being held captive to secure the release of rebel prisoners and would be set free when that happened. The programme also shows images of Ms Norgrove's kidnappers that she took herself on her camera and phone before she was killed. It had first been thought her captors killed her during the US rescue mission in October 2010 but later evidence confirmed she was killed by a grenade thrown by a US special forces soldier. Ms Norgrove was abducted along with at least one other colleague who survived the rescue attempt. Abdul Wadood, another former colleague who is still working on humanitarian projects in Afghanistan, said: "Linda asked the abductors when they were planning to kill her and then the abductors talked to her in a very soft language and they told her and assured her that she would not be killed, because that was not their purpose to kill her - all they wanted was to release some of their prisoners, in the end she would be released when this deed is done." Travelling to Afghanistan, Ms Norgrove's parents John and Lorna said it was important for them to see where their daughter had lived and worked and to review the aid work now supported by the charity they set up in her name. Mr Norgrove said: "We deliberately took a choice that we thought what we should try and do is try and make something positive, because I think that's what Linda would have wanted after Linda had been killed. "It was with that in mind that we started up the charity that we did and it stopped us getting totally involved in all this blame culture of trying to work out whose fault it was, because at the end of the day I don't think it was anybody's fault." The Linda Norgrove Foundation is now providing financial help for the kind of work Ms Norgrove did while she was in Afghanistan, including support for schools and hospitals. Lorgan Linda - Linda's Story will be on BBC Alba on Monday 8 October at 21.00 and later on the iPlayer

"I have to work with Ikea - make furniture for interior design, for architecture," he told BBC Radio 1. He said students would be particularly keen for him to create "a minimalist apartment inside of a college dorm". "Yo Ikea, allow Kanye to create, allow him to make this thing because you know what, I want a bed that he makes, I want a chair that he makes." West was pictured visiting Ikea's head office in Almhult, south Sweden, earlier this year. He has previously collaborated with British fashion designer Katie Eary who has, in turn, created a series of textiles and tableware for Ikea. The company has so far declined to comment on a possible tie-in with West, who has a sideline designing clothes and shoes. Its ethos of providing affordable goods would chime with West's ambition to make his own products more affordable. The star's interview with Annie Mac also covered his headline set at the 2015 Glastonbury festival. He said a musical error at the beginning made him forget his lyrics, with knock-on effects for the rest of the set. "It was incredible. I started off the show and I completely messed up the music. And me, as you can imagine by this phone call, I'm a bit of a perfectionist. So it really put me into a slightly depressed state and it put me back in the position of when I was in high school and I got fired from my job. "I don't usually get nervous, I prepare, I get fully prepared. When that music messed up in the beginning it tapped into my nerves and when you're nervous or vulnerable something special and something different can happen." And he discussed his political ambitions, after previously declaring he would run for president in 2020. "When I talk about the idea of being president, I'm not saying I have any political views," said the 39-year-old. "I just have a view on humanity, on people, on the truth. "We are numb, we're numb to 500 kids getting killed in Chicago a year, we're numb to the fact that it was seven police shootings in the beginning of July. "If there is anything that I can do with my time and my day, to somehow make a difference while I'm alive I'm going to try to do it."

The Bench was written in English, but the script was changed to Polish and actors with no experience enlisted from the town of Legnica. Green Valley Films' Kevin Phillips had said it would be a "miracle" if it triumphed at the London International Filmmaker Festival. But it won best original screenplay of a foreign language film on Saturday. The film was written by a group of friends from Blaenau Gwent - and was their first attempt at writing a movie. But after encountering logistical problems with closing streets in the valleys to film, they decided to shoot in the town of Legnica - where Mr Phillips had filmed a documentary. They changed the script to Polish and enlisted children from a local special school and orphanage, with pupils from two Blaenau Gwent schools flying out to be extras. Filmed for just £4,000, with all involved giving their time for free, it had been listed in the best original screenplay of a foreign language film and talented new filmmakers categories. Looking at the budgets of the other films, from countries such as Japan, the US and Germany, Mr Phillips said it would be "a miracle" if it won. He said they had just gone to the awards "for the experience", adding: "It was our first movie, shot totally independently, nobody had ever acted. "It brought so many people together with everyone working for free. It was a terrific project." With about 30 children from Pen y Cwm special school and Deighton Primary, Blaenau Gwent, flown out to be extras, he said it was a good "concept film", an example of how communities could establish bonds through film. Judges said international exposure from winning could help promote it in the UK, Poland and other countries. It is due to have a premiere in Legnica in April and has also been entered in Hollywood's Polish Film Festival.
A film by valleys directors shot in a language they did not understand with orphaned children has won an award.

His wife Marina can still recall the last time she saw him. He was smiling in what she recalls was a sad way. She said she would be back tomorrow. "He suddenly just said 'I love you so much'," she remembers. "I said 'Yes, of course. I love you too'." But when she got home, she received a call from the hospital telling her to rush back in. She did not get the chance to speak to him again. As he lay dying in his hospital bed, Alexander Litvinenko had remained the trained operative he had always been and tried to recall for police every detail that might hold a clue to his poisoning. For the police, he was something unique - a living murder victim - a man who was going to die but had time to talk to them. So who did he hold responsible for the mysterious illness which was taking such a terrible toll on his body? "Everything that happened to him and he was able to speak - able to sign - he said Putin was responsible for his death," his widow told the BBC. The public inquiry will examine the central question - who was responsible for what was described by a lawyer in a previous hearing as 'an act of state sponsored nuclear terrorism on the streets of London'? It was one of the most remarkable and sensitive murder cases in modern times. "This inquiry was different from any other investigation that I've ever been involved in," says Peter Clarke, who at the time ran the Metropolitan Police Counter-Terrorism Command which handled the investigation. "It was not only a murder inquiry but there were other key areas that we had to think about: public safety - over 40 sites of radioactive contamination in public places, on public transport, aircraft, offices, restaurants... And then there are the international dimensions, the diplomatic dimensions and the intelligence areas that came into this inquiry." Much is already known about the broad brush of events - that Alexander Litvinenko was killed by radioactive Polonium 210 and that two Russians, Alexander Lugovoi and Dimitri Kovtun, are believed by police to be responsible. They are believed to have administered the substance in a cup of tea at the Millennium Hotel's Pine Bar in central London. Both men, though, have denied any involvement. This inquiry may reveal new details of the trail of evidence, though - a radioactive trail which shows that the Pine Bar may have been the third attempt to kill Litvinenko. But one issue never publicly examined is that of motivation. Why was Litvinenko killed? And crucially - was it on the orders of the Russian state? That is one subject this inquiry will be looking at. Litvinenko was a former FSB officer who had become a fierce critic of Vladimir Putin, first in Russia and then in Britain where he eventually received citizenship. The inquiry was formally created in July 2014 after the government finally relented in the face of pressure from Marina Litvinenko and Sir Robert Owen, a judge then sitting as coroner but now chairman of the inquiry. The inquest process had hit a major problem - the government had demanded that certain material be kept secret but there is no provision for that in an inquest. So both Marina Litvinenko and Sir Robert argued that the inquest should be converted into a public inquiry in which material can be considered in closed session. The government at first resisted but Marina Litvinenko persisted with legal challenges even as her money began to run out. In July the government changed its stance. This was seen in some quarters as a reaction to worsening relations with Moscow. In the past there was suspicion that there was a desire to put the Litvinenko case to bed and get back to business but by last summer the crisis over Ukraine had changed Britain's perspectives on Russia and may have led to the decision to hold an inquiry which could look at the issue of state responsibility. At a pre-inquest hearing, lawyers for the inquiry said that the material in possession of the British government did establish a 'prima facie case' for the culpability of the Russian state in the death. But this may well be secret intelligence which will not come out in public evidence. One thing the inquiry will be unlikely to look at in open session is Alexander Litvinenko's relationship with MI6. At one hearing, a lawyer for the widow of Alexander Litvinenko said that her husband had carried out work for MI6 and had a dedicated handler or case-officer with the pseudonym of Martin. This, the lawyer argued, meant that the inquest needed to look at whether the British state failed in its duty of care to Alexander Litvinenko by failing to take sufficient steps to protect him - in other words, could it have prevented the murder? In the end that issue was ruled out of the final inquiry. It has been a long journey. I first interviewed Marina soon after her husband's murder when she showed a determination to uncover the truth. Speaking to her eight years on, she remains as firm as ever in that pursuit and still has confidence in the ability of the British justice system to deliver final answers, despite all the ups and downs on the way. The next few months will be the final test of that.
For three weeks Alexander Litvinenko desperately tried to fight off the radiation that was destroying his body from within.

The British Hen Welfare Trust said 240 of the birds were in need of new homes in Wrexham. The trust said the birds had spent the last 18 months laying eggs for supermarkets but their ability to lay had slowed down. It said they were healthy and "will soon become much-loved pets". The trust will hold a rehoming day on Sunday but said it could not save the hens if they did not have homes to go to. Gaynor Davies, the charity's head of operations, said: "There is no better feeling than watching these girls flourish after they emerge from the commercial system. "With a bit of TLC they become incredibly tame, and they're often described as cats and dogs with feathers."
Hundreds of ex-commercial hens considered too slow at laying eggs face slaughter unless they can be rehomed in north Wales, a charity has said.

"The players knew straight away what was the Test side and who was making up the numbers," said the New Zealander. Gatland, who on Wednesday named his side to face the Provincial Barbarians in the tour opener on Saturday, says each of his 41-man squad is in contention to face the All Blacks. "Keeping harmony in the squad is paramount," he said. "It's about giving everyone an opportunity. "It's important these guys feel like they are putting themselves in the shop window and have a chance to prove themselves, and with a little bit of luck are in contention for the Tests. Media playback is not supported on this device Owen Farrell and Johnny Sexton appear to be in competition for the fly-half spot after Gatland reiterated he sees the Englishman as a "world-class 10", rather than a centre. Irishman Sexton starts on Saturday, with Farrell on the bench. "The players are pretty aware about the competition in that position," Gatland said. "Johnny gets a start on Saturday, and the other two [Farrell and Dan Biggar] will get a start in the next two games." Gatland's son Bryn will start for the Provincial Barbarians at fly-half. "I spoke to Bryn last night and he's enjoying the week," Gatland Sr said. "We'll catch up tomorrow, and he'll expect to have to make a few tackles on the weekend. "We haven't spoken too much about the game but he's excited about the opportunity."
British and Irish Lions head coach Warren Gatland says he will not repeat Graham Henry's 2001 mistake by splitting the squad early in the tour.
