The Office for National Statistics (ONS) data showed the jobless total rose by 6,000 between October and December, to stand at 135,000.
UK unemployment fell by 7,000 to 1.6 million over the same period.
The Scottish unemployment rate is now 4.9%, slightly above the UK rate of 4.8%.
The number of people employed north of the border increased by 8,000 over the quarter to 2,611,000.
The employment rate is 73.6% - below the UK average of 74.6%.
In January Scotland's claimant count, including Universal Credit, was 76,400.
The Scottish government said Scotland's youth unemployment rate was at its lowest level since records began, while the nation continued to outperform the UK on female employment and inactivity rates.
Employability and Training Minister Jamie Hepburn said the figures were "encouraging" and showed that Scotland's labour market remained "resilient".
He said: "We are working to build an economy where everyone can share in the benefits of economic growth.
"It is therefore encouraging to note this rise in the number of people in work alongside some positive statistics on female and youth employment, where we continue to lead the UK."
The UK government's Scottish Secretary David Mundell said: "There is cause for some cautious optimism about the state of Scotland's labour market, with employment up and more women returning to the labour market.
"However, declining economic activity during the last 12 months, and the gap between the Scottish and UK labour markets, remains a concern.
"We have devolved a raft of new powers to the Scottish Parliament. It now needs to use those levers to strengthen the Scottish economy."
Scottish Chambers of Commerce chief executive Liz Cameron said: "These figures underline the need to focus resources on those who are currently unemployed and recently unemployed; to enable them to become equipped with the skills that our businesses need right now.
"We are still detecting significant skills shortages across a range of sectors and, in these circumstances, Scotland's employment rate really ought to be closing the gap with the UK as a whole." | The number of people seeking work in Scotland has risen for the third time in a row, according to official figures. | 38979937 | [

Roger Hayes, 75, from Holsworthy, Devon and son Andy, 39, from Birmingham, died when their twin-seat plane crashed at Pierre-Buffiere on 29 June, 2012.
The plane crashed 20 minutes after taking off from nearby Limoges as they flew to the south of France.
The coroner, Elizabeth Earland, recorded a verdict of accidental death.
Andrew Cope, a senior Air Accident Investigation Board inspector, said an iPad navigation app may have prompted the pilot to make a sharp turn.
Mr Cope told the inquest: "I think the pilot, Andrew, probably realised he was in restricted air space and turned around.
"That's the point where things start to go awry and the flight path is quite dramatic from then on.
"The pilot has now realised he is descending and is manoeuvring the aircraft to get back up.
"The problem is that if that is done very quickly it puts a lot of pressure on the wings."
Mr Cope agreed with the findings of French investigators who said the wings probably broke off when they came under too much pressure as Mr Hayes attempted to right the aircraft.
Didier Pauliet, who works at a nearby school, said: "The aircraft started losing bits. A wing fell off violently.
"Other bits, some bigger, started falling off.
"The rest of the plane fell in one piece almost immediately. We could see a lot of smoke."
The inquest heard the single-engine Jabiru 450 had been heading to the southern French town of Rodez when it crashed into woodland.
Officials said the plane stopped off in Cherbourg on the French Channel coast, then at Le Mans, north west France, before refuelling in Limoges about 100 miles from Rodez. | An aircraft which crashed in France killing a father and son fell from the sky "like a stone" when its wings failed, an inquest has heard. | 30128009 | [

It said $450m (£270m) would be made available in light of a report by the world's nuclear watchdog, the IAEA.
On Thursday the agency said Iran had neutralised half of its higher-enriched uranium stockpile.
The six-month deal saw Iran agree to scale back its nuclear programme in return for sanctions relief.
World powers are concerned Iran is seeking the capability to build nuclear weapons, a charge Iran strongly denies.
Talks have started on turning the temporary agreement, which came into effect in January, into a permanent one. The interim deal is due to expire on 20 July.
Iran has diluted half of its higher-grade enriched uranium stockpile, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said in a confidential report.
This will be seen as a positive sign by the West, as it lengthens the time Iran would need to make a nuclear bomb, says the BBC's Bethany Bell in Vienna.
Under the agreement, Iran agreed to limit its enrichment of uranium to no more than "low-level" 5%, stop enriching uranium to 20% and eliminate its stockpile of 20% enriched uranium.
The IAEA report said Iran had so far either diluted or converted nearly three-quarters of its highly-enriched stockpile.
The US state department said Washington was releasing the instalment of funds - previously frozen as punishment for Iran's nuclear programme - because "all sides have kept the commitments" they signed up to.
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani reiterated on Friday Iran's position that it had only peaceful intentions.
"During the [nuclear] talks, we announced to the world and we say so again... we are not after war, we are after logic, we are after talks," he said in a televised address marking National Army Day.
The IAEA report also said that progress in commissioning a plant for converting low-enriched uranium, part of the interim agreement, had been delayed, Reuters reported. Iran said the delay would not prevent it from fulfilling its side of the deal by the July deadline, the IAEA report noted.
The IAEA, which has inspectors in Iran, issues monthly updates on whether Iran is complying with the interim deal with the so-called P5+1 - the US, Russia, China, Britain, France and Germany.
Iran and the six powers are keen to start drafting the terms of a new deal, but correspondents say they are still some way apart.
The P5+1 wants Iran to agree to permanently reduce the scope of its enrichment programme and to give UN inspectors more oversight.
Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has backed talks with the P5+1 but warned Tehran will never give up its nuclear programme. | The United States is to release frozen Iranian funds, saying Tehran has kept commitments made under an interim deal over its nuclear programme. | 27076367 | [

Syrian state media says toxic gas was contained in shells that rebels have been firing at government-held areas in the divided city.
Russian news agency Interfax says seven people died and more than 20 were hospitalised after Tuesday's attack.
There has been no independent confirmation of the claim.
It comes after reports from a rebel-held town in Idlib province that chlorine gas was dropped on it late on Monday after a Russian military helicopter had earlier been shot down nearby.
A battle has continued since the weekend in Aleppo, as rebels attempt to break a government siege of a rebel-controlled area.
It is expected to be decisive for the future of a city that was once a commercial heartland but has been destroyed by five years of war.
About a quarter of a million civilians are living under siege since government forces cut them off last month.
The latest reports from the area are that the government, backed by Russian jets, has regained some ground. It is not clear exactly which territory has returned to government control but a reporter for a Beirut-based TV station said the army had regained control of two out of three villages that it lost near Aleppo earlier this week.
Russian and Syrian forces say they have been operating seven so-called humanitarian corridors, allowing hundreds of people to leave the besieged area peacefully.
On Wednesday, Russian state television ran pictures of civilians and fighters leaving. Smoke was seen billowing over the city in the footage, and gunshots were heard.
The UN's Children's Fund (Unicef) said it is "extremely" concerned for the safety of children caught up in violence in the city.
Saad Houry, of the fund, said children make up a third of the population trapped in the siege, and called for unhindered humanitarian access and for children to be protected.
The New York-based Physicians for Human Rights group said the last week of July was the worst week for attacks on medical facilities in the region since the Syrian war began in 2011. In a statement, the group said it has verified six deadly air strikes against hospitals in Aleppo governorate, all perpetrated by Syrian government forces.
Widney Brown of Physicians for Human Rights said: "Destroying hospitals is tantamount to signing thousands of death warrants for people now stranded in eastern Aleppo." | The Russian military says it has informed the US that it believes rebels in the Syrian city of Aleppo have deployed "toxic substances". | 36970220 | [

The members of the FSB, the Russian intelligence agency, conspired with criminal hackers, according to DOJ officials announcing the charges.
Previously, Yahoo said "state-sponsored" hackers were behind the 2014 breach affecting 500 million accounts.
The suspects are also alleged to have targeted Google accounts.
Hacking was directed at Russian and US government officials, including security, diplomatic and military personnel, according to the DOJ.
The indictment also alleged that 30 million Yahoo accounts were commandeered without authorisation for use in a spam campaign.
"We will not allow individuals, groups, nation states, or a combination of them to compromise the privacy of our citizens, the economic interests of our companies, or the security of our country," said acting attorney general Mary McCord, announcing the charges.
The suspects were named in a DOJ press release as:
Baratov was arrested on 14 March in Canada.
One of the alleged hackers has been on of the FBI's most wanted cyber criminals for more than three years, according to acting Att Gen McCord.
The suspect in question, Alexsey Belan, was aided by the FSB who - according to the DOJ - provided him with "sensitive FSB law enforcement and intelligence information that would have helped him avoid detection by US and other law enforcement agencies outside Russia".
"We would hope [Russia] would respect our criminal justice system and respect these charges," said acting Att Gen McCord, acknowledging the fact that the US does not have an extradition treaty with Russia.
"The United Kingdom's MI5 made substantial contributions to the advancement of this investigation," added FBI executive assistant director Paul Abbate.
Yahoo was criticised for the delay in informing users about the 2014 breach.
The stolen data included names, email addresses, telephone numbers, dates of birth and encrypted passwords, but not credit card data, according to Yahoo.
Last year, users were advised to change their passwords.
Around eight million UK accounts were believed to have been affected - including some users of BT and Sky email services.
"The indictment unequivocally shows the attacks on Yahoo were state-sponsored," Yahoo said in a statement, responding to the DOJ announcement.
"We are deeply grateful to the FBI for investigating these crimes and the DOJ for bringing charges against those responsible."
The DOJ said that the charges have no connection to the hack on the Democratic National Convention last year. | Two Russian spies are among four individuals indicted by the US Department of Justice (DOJ) over a huge theft of Yahoo user accounts. | 39281063 | [

Titan Arum produced a bud several weeks ago, which has recently been growing at several centimetres a day.
But up until Friday morning it had not been clear if it would produce a leaf, or a flower.
It will be the first time the so-called "corpse flower" has ever blossomed in Scotland.
It gets its name from the stench of decaying flesh it produces, to attract insects to pollinate it.
Staff at the Garden said "it's going to be incredible" when the full bloom shows.
But that could take at least a week.
And the full bloom, when it does appear, may only last for 48 hours.
The corm was gifted to the Botanic Garden in 2003.
It produced a similar growth spurt four years ago but that turned out to be a giant leaf structure which reached to the roof of the glass house. | Experts at the Royal Botanic Garden say one of the world's biggest - and smelliest - flowers is about to bloom in Edinburgh. | 33109836 | [

We asked some of those taking part in the Online Influence Conference 2015 for their thoughts on what's going on - and what's next. You can follow too on Twitter at #Oi15 @OiConf
John Watton, EMEA marketing director at Adobe Marketing Cloud who is returning to his home city for the conference; Amanda Neylon, head of digital at Macmillan Cancer Support, whose career has included Vauxhall Motors and the Met Police; Dr Jonathan Deacon, reader in marketing and entrepreneurship at University of South Wales, with a background in business, and Andrew Grill, global partner social business at IBM and previously CEO of Kred.
Marketing on social media - is it about big bucks or can even the smallest business do it well?
John Watton, EMEA marketing director at Adobe Marketing Cloud, @jwatton: "What I love right now is that the old barriers to marketing - money and technology - no longer exist. Marketing is accessible to everyone and it has become more about a company's willingness to do these things and their understanding how it can help to meet your business goals. Saying that, if you are able to invest in social media marketing you will be able to go far beyond just the likes and follows, and tie every piece of data to your bottom line."
Amanda Neylon, head of digital at Macmillan Cancer Support, @amandaneylon: "I believe with the right insight driving the decisions anyone can do great social media marketing on any budget. Many of our social media marketing successes have been around amplifying amazing user-generated content rather than creating specific assets, because that is where the powerful stories are. For example, promoting tips from The Source - our site designed to help us reach friends, colleagues, neighbours who may want to help someone with cancer but don't necessarily know what to do or say - has been a powerful way to reach new audiences."
Dr Jonathan Deacon, reader in marketing and entrepreneurship at University of South Wales, @UniSouthWales: "No, like a lot of things in life the more cash you throw at something does not mean that it will get better. Social media is about three key things in my mind. Who you want to talk with, what you want to say and what you want them to do once you have said it.
"Firstly, do you know your audience? Not just bland agglomerations of 'people' but an in-depth understanding of the individuals that make up an audience. What type of content do they read/share and why? How is it written?
"Secondly, what do you want to say to this audience? What are you trying to achieve? Writing content is critical. Will the content that you share have meaning to the audience you want to communicate with and will they respond?
"And thirdly, do you want someone to share your content, act upon it or perhaps just be amused by it?
"If you take a closer look at these three things you will probably see that small firms are just as able as large firms to achieve a meaningful outcome with social media. I always think that small firms are better able as they have an intimate knowledge of the audience - they may even be part of the audience themselves."
Andrew Grill, global partner social business at IBM, @AndrewGrill: "Just as 12 years or so ago when the internet first appeared, smaller companies that took advantage of this new tool could appear much larger than existing companies.
"With social media, even the smallest company can have a global presence. I've seen companies of all sizes become successful with social media because they take the time to understand the language of social and engage authentically with their customers and fans.
"My tip is don't treat social as a marketing channel, treat it as a conversation you would have with someone at the conference. You need to have something of value to exchange with your audience and not just interrupt a conversation.
"I often challenge conference participants to go up to two other people at a networking break and see how long it takes to be invited into the conversation. If by listening closely you see where what you might say will add real value to the conversation, you will be welcomed in. If you just want to sell something you will be waved away. This is the same with social."
People are already saying, 'ads are spoiling my social media experience' - are there lessons for brands/businesses to learn?
JW: "A big learning for brands is that just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Even with all this new technology, not a lot has really changed and the basic principles of marketing remain - understand your customers, what they want and when they want it. Online marketing is all about the right time, right place and right message. If it doesn't deliver on this, it could have a negative impact on your brand."
AM: "I think relevance is the key here. We as brands have access to so much data about our customers these days and it's important we use that when making marketing decisions. Personalised ads then have the capacity to become more useful additions to our customers' experience rather than intrusive."
JD: "Yes, if the audience is dissatisfied with the content then you should listen and do something else. Social media is just that, social and therefore conversational, informal and individualistic. Advertising belongs in the age of mass market and mass communication - in the past."
AG: "As I will explain during my Oi keynote [speech], social media is just like real life. My fear is that many companies see social as just 'another channel' and they try and push products on to people without understanding that they are interrupting existing conversations. We may never get away from 'ads' of some form. However, with social now being such a powerful tool, companies cannot simply reformat a marketing message for a social network. The lessons to learn are that companies that choose to engage with consumers and fans rather than advertise to them will be more successful in the longer term in my opinion."
What's the best example of a good campaign on social media you've seen recently?
JW: "Each year Adobe runs a digital marketing summit in the US and here in EMEA. While we work really hard to put together a great physical event, we make sure the experience starts long before and after the summit has taken place through our social channels. It's a great example of how a traditional marketing channel has been given a new lease of life through digital technology."
JD: "For the very best execution of how to use social media take a look at Hiut Denim. They understand their audience, what they are trying to say and what they want people to do."
AG: "Too many to choose from - but those that work across multiple platforms with a credible call to action get my attention."
What's your favourite social media and how often do you use it?
JW: "Twitter is the first thing I fire up when I get up in the morning. I probably use it every hour for news and sharing content I find interesting with my network."
AM: "I still use Twitter a lot, mostly listening to keep up on what's new in digital (and the world) but I do try and tweet something useful at least once a day."
JD: "LinkedIn - every day."
AG: "Twitter! I wouldn't be at the Oi conference without Twitter - famously my "one tweet" in January 2011 lead me to working for IBM. I tweet whenever I have some downtime, in between meetings or walking home."
When you eat, is your phone/tablet switched off?
JW: "When I'm on my own, no. When I'm with my family, yes. It's a rule to never bring our phones to the table."
AM: "Nope I tend to be always connected - though I don't take photos of my food."
JD: "Mine is, but my wife keeps hers on, although she only answers once we have eaten."
AG: "#SocialNeverSleeps"
What's the last non-work related app you downloaded?
JW: "This was the new Apple watch game 'Rules!' I'm expecting my new wearable to arrive anytime soon."
AM: "My Apple watch has just been delivered so I'm spending quite a bit of time right now playing with all the apps I can have on it."
JD: "A tilt-shift photo app which makes everything in your photos look miniature - very clever."
AG: "WhatsApp - I'm one of the 700 million people sending 30 billion WhatsApps each day."
What's the next big thing?
JW: "One of the problems with social has long been proving its ROI (return on investment). We are now starting to think of social as a data-driven science, which is a great first step in helping to prove its value and starting to have meaningful conversations with other data-driven marketing teams."
AM: "Data! I'm genuinely excited about data, or rather ways of using it. I think that we need to really develop the ways that we use all the data available to us to personalise customer experience across digital channels. Whether that's gathered from our social activity or newer areas like ibeacons or wearables, we can gather so much valuable data to make online experiences more impactful. Making connections between our online social interactions and all the offline data we're gathering about our lives will enable truly personalised, useful and interesting digital experiences."
JD: "I see a lot of developments around 'EdTech' and I'm pretty sure that some of that will be successful when taken to market. I also think that the very smart and probably small firms will begin to better integrate social media with personalised communication. I can foresee firms mixing high-end social media with low-end hard copy, with great effect. For example, Twitter feeds backed up with occasional and highly personalised written letters, cards and the like - authoritative and authentic."
AG: "Corporate Social Networks - we've only just scratched the surface of how companies can collaborate using social techniques and allow employees to be more productive, and more satisfied at work because they can share in the corporate wisdom of hundreds and even thousands of colleagues around the world. While this will be huge, it requires a massive cultural change, and will become the #NewWayToWork. This is something that clients are keeping me and my team at IBM very busy." | It's the "social" social media event of the year in Wales - hundreds of people involved in digital marketing are in Cardiff to hear insights from the likes of Google, Twitter, YouTube, and IBM. | 32535525 | [

The London Legacy Development Corporation - which manages the publicly-owned stadium - has been told to publish details of the move.
London mayor Boris Johnson, who oversees the LLDC, says he is "perfectly happy" with the decision.
West Ham say it will prevent them "securing the best deal for taxpayers".
The club were awarded tenancy of the London 2012 stadium in 2013, and £272m has been spent to convert the site for use as a Premier League ground.
West Ham have contributed £15m towards those costs, and will pay between £2m and £2.5m a year in rent. Last month a BBC documentary revealed that the club was having many of the running costs of the stadium paid for it by the taxpayer under the terms of the tenancy agreement.
A coalition of 14 supporters' trusts from around the country submitted a Freedom of Information request to obtain that tenancy agreement and believe that the deal gives West Ham a competitive advantage.
Manchester City pay council rent of about £4m a year for the Etihad Stadium, the construction of which was also initially funded by taxpayers, for the 2002 Commonwealth Games.
It has been reported that Chelsea and Tottenham may have to pay between £11m and £15m a year to play at Wembley if they use the national stadium temporarily while they redevelop their grounds.
West Ham have joined the LLDC in insisting that the rental deal should remain private for reasons of commercial confidentiality.
Speaking at mayor's question time on Wednesday, Johnson said he is happy to have the details made public but believes that the deal remains the best available for the taxpayer.
"We did not want to put anything out that would impact on our ability to negotiate future contracts," Johnson said.
"But it should be a matter of public record and we should be very proud that we have got a Premier League football team in that stadium.
"The stadium has been a fantastic success. It is doing brilliantly and it is basically unlike any other Olympic Stadium around the world as it has a long-term viable future with Premier League football at the heart of the deal.
"There are Olympic stadiums around the world that are totally mothballed and don't have any real activation in them. Go to Athens, go to Beijing.
"We've got nothing to hide, we've got a very good rental agreement with West Ham and it's fantastic that we will not be spending any more public money on this."
Under the terms of the deal West Ham have a 99-year deal as anchor tenants, and the LLDC says future profits will see a return to the taxpayer.
A West Ham spokesman said: "West Ham United shares the mayor's view that our presence at the former Olympic Stadium guarantees it a viable and sustainable future.
"Our agreement will not only return hundreds of millions of pounds to the taxpayer, but will ensure that London's Olympic Stadium will not join the long list of other former Olympic stadiums that are rotting away through lack of use.
"The LLDC has stated its disappointment at the Information Commissioner's Office ruling as it believes it will damage its ability to secure the best deal for the taxpayer in future and we share those sentiments.
"The club are now working with the LLDC to decide the appropriate next step." | West Ham say they are "disappointed" with a ruling that the terms of their rental of the Olympic Stadium from next season should be made public. | 34272622 | [

Mr Blair said the party he used to lead should aspire to govern, rather than be a "fringe protest movement".
He has been a vocal critic of leader Jeremy Corbyn, warning before his leadership election victory that the party risked "annihilation" if he won.
Mr Corbyn's office declined to respond to Mr Blair's comments, made in a Spectator article.
"All wings of the Labour Party which support the notion of the Labour Party as a Party aspiring to govern, rather than as a fringe protest movement agree on the tragedy of the Labour Party's current position," he said in the article, which does not mention Mr Corbyn by name.
His comments come amid divisions within the party over its future direction. Most Labour MPs did not back Mr Corbyn for leader, but he overwhelmingly won the contest with over half of the membership's vote.
Tensions have surfaced since the Commons voted on air strikes in Syria. Some MPs have complained they were abused online after backing military intervention, and Mr Corbyn has warned members "abuse and intimidation" will not be tolerated.
There have also been claims so-called moderate Labour MPs could be unseated by pressure from the grass-roots Momentum group, formed from Mr Corbyn's leadership campaign, which the group denies.
In his article, Mr Blair also defended his party's record under his leadership, during which he said it had "effectively discarded" its ideological commitment to socialism.
Labour "fell short" in areas when hard choices had to be made, he said, with "significant elements" of the party unhappy with the "compromise" and "pragmatism" required for government, seeing it as a betrayal of Labour's principles.
Looking forward, Mr Blair said "more modernising and less ideological thinking" was needed to cope with challenges such as the housing shortage and social exclusion.
"Right now we're in danger of not asking the right questions, never mind failing to get the right answers," he said.
Many current Labour members feel the party "lost its way" in government, Mr Blair concluded.
"I feel we found it," he said.
"But I accept in the process we failed to convince enough people that the true progressives are always the modernisers, not because they discard principle but because they have the courage to adhere to it when confronted with reality." | The current state of the Labour Party is a "tragedy", former Prime Minister Tony Blair has said. | 35050984 | [

The blaze broke out in a ground-floor flat of a four-storey tenement in Tollcross at about 22:50 on Monday.
One woman was rescued from the top-floor flat in Fairburn Street and eight people were injured in total.
The other five people were treated in hospital for minor injuries before being released. Police said there were also reports of an explosion.
Dozens of people were evacuated from their homes and about 50 firefighters were involved in tackling the blaze.
The cause of the fire is being investigated.
The Red Cross helped at the scene to look after residents who had been evacuated.
A Scottish Fire and Rescue Service spokesman said: "The service received a 999 call from a member of the public shortly before 11pm alerting them to a fire within the ground floor of the four-storey tenement building.
"Local fire crews from Clydesmill, Calton and Polmadie where immediately dispatched and on their arrival were met with a well-developed fire.

He told Fox News the Democrats were putting out the reports because they were embarrassed at the scale of the election defeat.
On Friday, CIA officials told US media they had concluded that Russians hackers were trying to help Mr Trump.
Russian officials have repeatedly denied the hacking accusations.
Mr Trump said it might have been Russia but it was impossible to know.
"They have no idea if it's Russia or China or somebody sitting in a bed some place," he said.
President Barack Obama has ordered a complete review of the hacks, which targeted emails at the Democratic Party and the emails of a key aide to presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.
The contents of the emails, passed to Wikileaks and posted online, were embarrassing to the Democrats and shook up the presidential campaign.
Senior Republicans have now joined Democrats in calling for a full investigation.
Republican Senator John McCain, chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said in a joint statement on Sunday with top Democrats that the CIA's report "should alarm every American".
He said in an interview that the congressional investigation should be more thorough than the one ordered by the White House.
In October, US government officials pointed the finger at Russia, accusing it of meddling in the campaign to undermine the electoral process.
But on Friday, the intelligence community went further when US media reports said the CIA had "high confidence" that Russians were trying to influence the election in Mr Trump's favour.
Russians had hacked the Republican party but chose not to reveal the contents of what they found, the reports said.
But Mr Trump told Fox News Sunday: "I think it's ridiculous. I think it's just another excuse. I don't believe it."
He said the Democrats were behind the news reports, not the CIA, because they suffered such a big defeat.
While backing the Obama review, the president-elect warned that it should not pin the blame solely on Russia but on other countries or individuals too.
Republican party spokesman Sean Spicer said the party had not been hacked and the intelligence report was wrong.
Mr Trump also said in the interview he did not need daily intelligence briefings.
"I'm a smart person, I don't need to be told the same thing in the same way for eight years."
Elsewhere in the interview, he said:
Mr Trump, an outsider who stunned the political world by beating Hillary Clinton in last month's election, will assume office on 20 January.

A club statement on Thursday said they had "mutually agreed to his resignation in the interests of both parties".
It comes after just five league matches of the 2017-18 season, of which Barrow won one, drew three and lost one.
Michael Moore will take interim charge while the Bluebirds search for a successor to 45-year-old former Mansfield and Torquay boss Cox.
In May, Barrow gave fellow National League club Hartlepool United permission to speak to Cox, before Pools appointed The New Saints boss Craig Harrison.
Cox had arrived on a three-and-a-half-year deal in November 2015 following Darren Edmondson's exit by mutual consent.
An 11th-place finish followed in 2015-16, before a seventh-place finish last term.
Barrow's statement added: "His efforts have made the club more professional both on and off the pitch. We wish him the best of luck in the next step of his career." | National League club Barrow have announced the departure of manager Paul Cox after nearly two years in charge. | 41039340 | [

Dundee West MP Chris Law was questioned by police in September in relation to his Spirit of Independence referendum campaign in 2014.
The campaign saw him raise grassroots funding to travel across Scotland in a Green Goddess fire engine that had been painted in the colours of the saltire.
The Crown Office confirmed that no further action would be taken.
A spokesman said: "Following discussion with Police Scotland, we agree with their assessment that there is insufficient evidence to support each of the allegations, and that, as such, they do not intend submitting a formal prosecution report."
Mr Law told the Courier newspaper: "Politics - at all levels - should be a force for good. That's what drove me to become involved in the referendum campaign with Spirit of Independence, and why I stood to represent the people of Dundee West.
"While this has been a distressing process, I have always continued doing the job I was elected to do and I am now more motivated than ever to stand up for my constituents.
"While there was never any doubt from the outset, I was happy to co-operate with inquiries and I'm glad the matter has now been fully resolved." | An SNP MP has been cleared of any wrongdoing after a police investigation into his financial dealings. | 38782007 | [

Scarlett Keeling was 15 when she was raped and killed while on the "trip of a lifetime" in Goa.
Placido Carvalho, 49, and Samson D'Souza, 37 were accused of killing her but acquitted in 2016.
Vikram Varma, who represents the teenager's family, said the India's Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) had appealed the decision.
He said a hearing was scheduled for Monday and once all the requirements had been met, a notice would be sent to the accused to secure their presence at Bombay High Court.
"I am hopeful for a conviction, but it would be a long walk," Mr Varma said.
The men denied charges of culpable homicide, grievous sexual assault, destroying evidence, assault with criminal force with intent to outrage a woman's modesty and administering drugs with intent to harm.
But they were acquitted by judge Vandana Tendulkar at Goa Children's Court in September.
Scarlett's mother Fiona MacKeown said the legal process was like "a game of cat and mouse".
She said news of the appeal was "great" but that she still wanted a fresh investigation.
"It feels as if things are proactive. But it's nearly nine years ago, I don't know how much longer this is going to go on for."
Scarlett's bruised and partially clothed body was found on Anjuna beach in February 2008.
The police in Goa initially concluded the teenager died accidentally but, after a campaign by her family, a second post-mortem examination in March 2008 revealed she had been drugged and raped before drowning in seawater.
Delays in court saw a trial start in March 2010, but a verdict was not reached until 2016. | An appeal has been lodged in the case of a Devon teenager killed in India in 2008, her family's lawyer has said. | 38935957 | [

Councillors are to meet next week to consider bids to turn the hall into a food market or a hotel, with council officials backing the food hall plan.
However a number of pre-conditions would need to be met before a draft lease could be agreed, at the authority's February meeting.
The B-listed Edwardian building has sat empty since it closed 10 years ago.
Councillors deferred a decision on which development bid to back, if any, in July, calling for further reports from Historic Scotland and other agencies and further information from the applicants.
At that stage, council officials had backed the view of independent property specialists Jones Laing LaSalle that the Perth Market Place Ltd proposal should be preferred to the hotel bid from the Seventy Group.
A report to councillors ahead of Wednesday's full council meeting noted that "there has been a change in circumstances which significantly impacts upon the Seventy Group's bid", meaning no further information could be provided.
Planning and development head David Littlejohn has asked councillors to give the marketplace proposal "preferred bidder status" to allow detailed negotiations to take place.
Should this happen, a draft lease could potentially be considered by the council in February 2016, although this would also have to be signed off by the Perth Common Good Fund Committee.
The Edwardian building, which dates back to 1911, was closed 10 years ago after a modern new concert hall was opened in the city.
Decisions over its future have been drawn out over a decade since then, with councillors at one point approving plans to have it demolished, which were subsequently blocked by Historic Scotland opposition.
The development management committee then backed the Seventy Group plans to convert it into a luxury hotel, before councillors agreed to publicly market a 125-year lease on the building to find an alternative to demolition.
Five bids were submitted in January, which where whittled down to two by July when councillors deferred the decision.
Should neither bid ultimately win approval, demolition could still be an option, although Historic Scotland chief executive Ian Walford warned he would be minded to object to such a move.
Mr Littlejohn also noted in his report that Historic Scotland had underlined that "the process cannot be allowed to perpetuate", and that a decision will have to be made. | A decision on the future of demolition-threatened Perth City Hall will not be made until February 2016. | 34423371 | [

They were among four people who were on Irish Coastguard Rescue 116 helicopter when it crashed on Tuesday.
The funeral for pilot Captain Dara Fitzpatrick was held on Saturday.
The search, which has been impeded by adverse weather, will also focus on finding the wreckage of the helicopter.
The priority for those involved in the multi-agency operation has been to recover the bodies of chief pilot Mark Duffy and winchmen Paul Ormsby and Ciarán Smith.
Heavy swells have so far prevented those involved from getting near to the site where a signal from the helicopter's black box was located close to Blackrock Lighthouse.
Search crews hope the missing crew will be located in the wreckage of the helicopter.
The Commissioners of Irish Lights ship Granuaile left Galway on Saturday evening after being loaded with specialist equipment, including a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) that could be used to access difficult to reach undersea areas.
The vessel is equipped with a 20-tonne crane, which could be used to lift wreckage from the sea bed.
A surface water search resumed on Sunday morning involving coastguard units, the RNLI and Irish naval ship LÉ Eithne in addition to extensive coastline searches at Belmullet and Achill.
Naval divers are on standby and will be deployed as soon as conditions permit.
Captain Fitzpatrick was recovered from the sea, hours after the helicopter crashed in the early hours of Tuesday morning.
She was the mother of a young son and the most senior pilot with CHC which runs the contract to provide search and rescue services in the Republic of Ireland.
Hundreds of mourners attended her funeral at St Patrick's Church in Glencullen, County Dublin.

The man known as Kazu, or 'King Kazu' by some fans, will stay with the second division side past his 49th birthday.
Kazuyoshi first played for Brazilian side Santos in 1986, so his deal will see his career span over 30 years.
"I'm thankful to the club staff and supporters who always offer me support," said Miura, who scored 55 goals in 89 appearances for Japan.
"I'll continue to give everything I have and strive," added the former Genoa and Dinamo Zagreb striker.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, Miura holds the record as the oldest scorer in Japanese football - a winner in a second division match four months after his 48th birthday.
He was particularly prolific in guiding Japan to the 1998 World Cup, scoring 14 goals in qualifying, and last played for the national side in 2000.
His career, which started when he moved to Brazil to play youth football aged 15, is one of the longest in football history.
Last week ex-England striker Teddy Sheringham registered himself as a player for Stevenage - where he is manager - at the age of 49 but opted out of playing in a local cup competition. | Japanese footballer Kazuyoshi Miura has signed a one-year contract extension with Yokohama FC at the age of 48. | 34787804 | [

The inquiry into the University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay NHS Trust found 20 major failures from 2004 to 2013 at Furness General Hospital.
It called the avoidable incidents "serious and shocking".
And it criticised the wider NHS for the way it had monitored and regulated events at the hospital.
Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt said in the House of Commons that the tragedy was "a second Mid Staffs", albeit on a smaller scale.
In an echo of the inquiries in the Stafford Hospital scandal, the independent report said the problems found represented a "simultaneous failure of a great many systems at almost every level, from labour ward to the headquarters of national bodies".
Mr Hunt made number of recommendations, saying that the tragedy "must strengthen our resolve to deliver real and lasting culture change so these mistakes are never repeated."
He has appointed Dr Mike Durkin, National Director of Patient Safety at NHS England, to draw up new guidelines about reporting serious incidents as well as establish an independent national team that can go on rapid fact finding missions on a "no blames basis" as soon as issues arise.
And he's asked Prof Sir Bruce Keogh, Medical Director of NHS England, to review the professional codes of conduct for doctors and nurses to ensure mistakes are reported, not covered up.
The investigation - led by Dr Bill Kirkup, a former senior Department of Health official - found:
Despite the failures starting in 2004 and continuing throughout the period, including a cluster of five major incidents in 2008, it was only in 2011 that the issues at Furness General came to wider attention.
This was after strong criticism from a coroner who looked into the death of newborn Joshua Titcombe. The coroner ruled Joshua had died of natural causes in 2008 but midwives had repeatedly missed opportunities to spot and treat a serious infection.
Around this time, a report came to light that the trust itself had commissioned. It was produced in early 2010 but "suppressed" by the trust.
But before that, the trust had failed to act on earlier incidents and even distorted the way information was presented to inquests.
Who was failed at Furness?
The CQC, regional health authority and ombudsman had not acted properly on what they knew either. There was knowledge of five major incidents in 2009 as the trust had revealed them as part of its application for foundation trust status, which is reserved for elite trusts.
But the regulators did not take the necessary action to fully investigate what had happened, and the trust gained foundation status in September 2010.
Dr Kirkup said: "This was a disturbing catalogue of missed opportunities."
His inquiry makes 44 recommendations, including:
Six midwives are already due before the NMC later this year - and a seventh is being investigated.
Meanwhile, a police investigation into the death of Joshua Titcombe is continuing, and the Health and Safety Executive is looking into the case.
Pearse Butler, chair of the Morecambe Bay Trust, said: "The trust has made some very serious mistakes.
"More than that the same mistakes were repeated. For these reasons, on behalf of the trust, I apologise unreservedly to the families concerned. I am deeply sorry that so many people have suffered."
She said the trust would look to learn the lessons of what went wrong. She said there was a new leadership team in place and extra staff had already been taken on.
Parent power prompted midwife review
James Titcombe's son Joshua was nine days old when he died of sepsis. He was born at Furness General Hospital and was transferred to two other hospitals before dying in Newcastle.
"We asked repeatedly if Joshua should have antibiotics and we were told 'No, he didn't [need any]'," said Mr Titcombe.
"He was wheezing, and he wasn't feeding properly, and my wife called the emergency bell because he was grunting.
"And every time, we were told Joshua was fine and that there was nothing to worry about. At no stage was a doctor ever called."
Afterwards Joshua's progress chart went missing, never to re-emerge, and the coroner later said there was a suspicion that it may have been deliberately destroyed.
On the report's publication, Mr Titcombe said: "I think I feel deeply sad, angry as well, and vindicated, all at the same time.
"For me this report really lays out how preventable Joshua's death was. I really recognise now when we talk about missed opportunities in this report, that for me means not having a six-year-old." | A "lethal mix" of failures at a Cumbrian hospital led to the unnecessary deaths of 11 babies and one mother, an investigation has ruled. | 31699607 | [

Ron Stone has been described as a "true champion" of St George West, the ward he had represented on Bristol City Council since 1985.
The leader of the Labour group at the council, Helen Holland, said: "Ron will be remembered as a steadfast campaigner and committed socialist."
Mr Stone died aged 73 on Wednesday.
Ms Holland said he was "dedicated to furthering social justice and equality in Bristol and beyond".
She added: "The Labour Party has lost one of its most committed councillors.
"Bristol is a better city because of Ron Stone's unwavering public service."
The city's mayor, George Ferguson, said Mr Stone had "an undying passion for Bristol".
"I always enjoyed his directness and wry humour - even when directed at me.
"As a councillor for St George West for 30 years, Ron had a vast knowledge of his neighbourhood and the people he served, making him an excellent ward councillor who made a real difference.
"With his keen sense of social justice, Ron made an enormous contribution to life in Bristol. He was an 'establishment rebel', always without his civic robes but seldom without his camera, recording people and events."
Mr Stone's roles at the council included chairing the licensing committee and the St George Neighbourhood Partnership.
The lord mayor of Bristol, councillor Clare Campion-Smith, said: "Ron was a hugely dedicated councillor who made a great contribution to his community, constituents, the council and the city over his 30 years of service.
"He was an active and passionate councillor whose presence in the chamber enlivened and enriched any debate." | Tributes have been paid to a long-serving Labour councillor who has died following a short illness. | 35205903 | [

The bill promises new powers for Wales, but there have been claims it would reduce AMs law-making powers.
First Minister Carwyn Jones recommended AMs vote for the bill, saying it could be improved but "takes Wales forward".
But Plaid Cymru leader Leanne Wood suggested Wales had been "backed into a corner" over the legislation.
The vote was 38-17 in favour of the bill.
The Wales Bill offers to extend the transfer of powers over tax, energy, transport and the assembly's own affairs.
Labour - the largest group with 29 of the 60 assembly seats - agreed on Monday to back the legislation despite reservations.
It was joined in supporting the bill by the Conservatives, ensuring the motion to give consent to the bill passed.
UKIP and Plaid Cymru opposed the law - UKIP voted against because it devolved income tax without a referendum and Plaid because of the claimed "roll-back" in assembly powers.
The Wales Bill introduces a system of powers that are reserved to Westminster - such as defence and foreign affairs - with everything else assumed to be devolved.
But some have claimed that the new devolution model is unclear and have criticised the large list of reservations.
In a debate on the bill in the Senedd, the first minister said: "On balance, I believe it is in the best interests of Wales as we look at dealing with the issue of Brexit that we take what is on offer today."
Mr Jones said the bill should be seen as "another step on what is a long journey of devolution".
However he said there was "a need for improvement" in some areas, such as the lack of devolution of air passenger duty.
He added it was "not possible to conclude that the reserved powers model, welcome though it is in theory, is fit for purpose in the long term".
"There is no other country that I know of where two legislatures exist in the same jurisdiction", he said.
"It's possible in the future that somebody might be arrested in Cardiff for something that is not an offence in Wales."
Plaid Cymru decided at a group meeting on Tuesday to oppose the bill. Sian Gwenllian, Simon Thomas and Elin Jones voted in favour, with the rest of the group against.
Ms Wood told the debate Plaid was voting against the Wales Bill "with a heavy heart".
"We never want to see Wales backed into a corner again," she said.
Her party supported the fiscal framework on Wales' funding negotiated between the UK and Welsh governments, she said.
But she added: "The UK Government did not have to tie the fiscal framework to a bill that would restrict our ability to make laws.
"The public finances of Wales should not be conditional on accepting a worsened legislative framework."
Welsh Conservative leader Andrew RT Davies said: "Is any bill perfect? No it's not.
"But this bill offers a huge opportunity to take responsibility over energy, over transport, over electoral arrangements, over income tax - the list goes on."
He said it was a "sad day when Plaid Cymru in this chamber choose to vote against... [an] opportunity for a huge transfer of responsibility and sovereignty".
UKIP group leader Neil Hamilton told the Senedd he supported the broad principles of the Wales Bill.
But he said the removal of the need for a referendum before income tax powers were devolved was a "constitutional deficiency we ought not to ignore".
He said it was an "important principle that politicians should keep their promises and should be held to their word".
Mark Reckless, UKIP AM for South Wales East, added: "They know if they did have a referendum they would lose."
Earlier on Tuesday, Mr Davies said the Welsh devolution settlement would need a rethink because of Brexit.
It is the fourth Wales Bill since the devolution process began in 1998 with the act which created the assembly.
Mr Davies said powers returned to the UK by the European Union after Brexit would require more legislation "to realign those responsibilities".
"This will not be the last Wales Bill, but it will be the last Wales Bill in this parliamentary session", he added.
Mr Davies also regretted the UK government's decision not to devolve powers over air passenger duty.
He said he thought it would be devolved eventually as there was "no coherent argument to hold it back".
What is in the Wales Bill?
Under a political convention between the assembly and Westminster, the Wales Bill needed a legislative consent motion passed in the Senedd before it can be become law.
That is because the Wales Bill relates to devolved matters.
The convention does not have legal force but Wales Office minister Lord Bourne has said the bill would not become law if the assembly did not approve it.
The vote means the bill will now return to Parliament for the final stages of the legislative process. | AMs have backed the UK Government's Wales Bill in a Senedd vote - meaning the next stage of devolution can become law. | 38643532 | [

He was a surprise choice to lead the Fifa investigation, and ruffled feathers at football's governing body. On one occasion, he turned up unannounced to interview members of the senior executive committee who had cast votes in the World Cup bids.
Even before he dismissed Fifa's report as "erroneous", there were signs that he was not afraid to pick a fight with his employers.
In an interview last year he said his authority was to investigate "any official, top down, for misconduct... no-one is above the ethics code".
He acknowledged that he took on the investigation as an outsider. "I come into this case with no history or experience of what might have happened," he said. "I will look at the facts and my jurisdiction and make decisions on whether the ethics code was violated."
In a recent talk to lawyers in London about ethics in sport, Mr Garcia said Fifa's ethic's code needed transparency and leadership - a comment seen as a thinly veiled critique of Fifa boss Sepp Blatter.
He eventually quit Fifa in December 2014, saying that a "lack of leadership" at the organisation had led to his decision.
Mr Garcia made his name in his native New York, serving as a federal prosecutor with the Southern District of New York from 1992 to 2001 and working on a series of high-profile cases.
These included the prosecution of four defendants for the bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993, and the investigation into the 1998 bombings of the American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.
He once told his daughter that his goal was "to punish people who do bad things and break the law".
In March 2003 President George W Bush appointed Mr Garcia, a Republican, as assistant secretary for immigration and customs enforcement. The post put him in charge of more than 20,000 staff and a budget of more than $4bn.
Later he moved back to New York's Southern District, serving as a US attorney from 2005-2008. There he supervised investigations into securities fraud, bringing a series of insider trading prosecutions. An investigation he led ultimately forced the resignation of Democratic governor Eliot Spitzer over a prostitution scandal.
But he also took on some major international corruption and fraud cases, including the oil-for-food programme in Iraq and alleged violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act by the Norwegian energy firm Statoil.
He is currently a partner at private US law firm Kirkland and Ellis, and it was from here that he was chosen by Fifa in 2012 to lead the investigation into the bidding process that awarded the World Cup to Russia in 2018 and Qatar in 2022.
A year later he was among 18 Americans barred from entering Russia in Moscow's response to the Magnitsky List, which banned Russian officials from the US.
Married to an FBI agent, he has kept largely out of the media spotlight and has not run for public office, despite speculation that he could be in a strong position to do so. | Michael Garcia, the American lawyer hired by Fifa to investigate the World Cup bidding process before criticising the organisation's summary of his own report and eventually resigning, is a former prosecutor with a history of launching corruption probes. | 30035670 | [

Counsel General Mick Antoniw said he was "delighted" by the Supreme Court ruling against the UK government on Brexit.
The Supreme Court said UK ministers were "not legally compelled" to consult the assembly and that AMs have no veto.
Mr Antoniw said it is likely AMs would get a vote on the triggering process.
But he said it will not be a veto on leaving the EU.
AMs could decide to hold a vote in the assembly on article 50 if they feel that the legislation on article 50 affects devolution.
There is a convention - called the Sewel Convention - whereby the assembly has a say on legislation in Westminster that affects devolution in the form of a vote in the chamber.
But Tuesday's ruling that AMs do not have a veto on Brexit means that whether or not the vote has meaning will depend on the UK government's reaction.
Mr Antoniw told AMs on Tuesday: "As the Article 50 Bill proceeds through Parliament, we would expect the UK government to respect the Sewel Convention, so that Parliament has the opportunity to listen to the assembly and to the other devolved legislatures."
Mr Antoniw said there was "every likelihood of a vote (in the assembly) because a trigger bill will impact on Welsh legislation".
The court ruled Theresa May cannot trigger Article 50 - the formal exit process from the EU - without the backing of MPs and peers.
The court also said UK ministers were "not legally compelled" to consult the devolved legislatures in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
Analysis by BBC Wales political correspondent Daniel Davies
It sounds like the eleven Supreme Court judges sent the Welsh Government packing.
They all agree: there's no legal reason for Theresa May to consult the assembly.
But there is a political reason for Parliament to listen. And if Parliament must vote on Brexit, it leaves the door ajar for the assembly to influence things.
That means there might be a vote in the assembly on triggering Article 50, as well as in Westminster.
I am also sorry to disappoint anyone who hopes that a vote in Cardiff Bay could stop Brexit. It will not.
All sides agree the assembly does not have a power of veto. | Westminster should listen to the assembly before triggering the Brexit process, the Welsh Government's top law officer has said. | 38735808 | [

She said she was "so proud and excited" about her new role, describing it as "a dream come true".
Terry, who has performed at the Globe in As You Like It, A Midsummer Night's Dream and Love's Labour's Lost, will take over from Emma Rice in April 2018.
Terry won an Olivier award for her performance in Tribes at the Royal Court in 2010.
She also wrote and starred in the Sky One series The Cafe, with Ralf Little.
Neil Constable, chief executive of Shakespeare's Globe, said: "Audiences have loved her sparkling and intelligent performances on our stage over the years - now they will have the opportunity to see her fresh artistic vision come to life as she moves into a new phase of her impressive career."
Terry most recently starred as the king in Henry V at Regent's Park Open Air Theatre, and as Grace in Katie Mitchell's production of Cleansed for the National Theatre.
The actor-manager is a role as old as the theatre itself, and is a tried and tested practice at the Globe - with Mark Rylance combining the roles with considerable success during his stint as its artistic director.
There is no obvious reason why an intelligent and versatile actress such as Michelle Terry, who is immersed in Shakespeare and the Globe, shouldn't make a success of it too.
This is as long as she is free to pursue her creative vision without unwelcome intrusion from a board who made a complete hash of the Rice era.
The news comes following the controversial announcement of Rice's departure. She is leaving after the Globe's board decided her methods were not authentic enough.
Rice took charge of the London theatre in January 2016 but has come in for fierce criticism, including for her use of sound and lighting technology.
Earlier this year Rice wrote an open letter to her successor, in which she claimed the board had sought to impose "a new set of rules that I did not sign up to and could not stand by".

Aided by dancers, confetti cannons and a man in a mirrored suit, the Canadian band revived revellers' spirits with a series of arms-aloft anthems.
"In a lifetime of pretty much impossible things that have happened to our band, this is the highlight," said frontman Win Butler.
Earlier, every stage at the event was closed after lightning struck ground.
Dance act Rudimental were escorted off the main stage mid-set, and had to abandon their planned encore - Feel The Love, with guest vocalist John Newman.
"We're quite upset," musician Amir Amor told the BBC, "but we had a great time anyway".
Metallica's Lars Ulrich was flying into the site by helicopter as the storm descended.
"It was kind of frightening," he said.
"When we landed, all the people picking us up were going, 'we didn't expect you were going to fly in this weather'.
"But the pilot didn't say anything about that. We saw the lightning up there. I thought it was pyrotechnics for Arcade Fire."
The thunderstorm heralded a brief but torrential downpour, and the power cut took BBC coverage off the air.
Music resumed on the main stage at 19:00 BST with Lily Allen, who dedicated an expletive-laden song to FIFA president Sepp Blatter.
Other performers on Friday included Blondie, who proved so popular it became impossible to enter or leave The Other Stage at lunchtime, and Paolo Nutini, whose soulful ballads were a fitting soundtrack as dusk fell over Somerset.
Sophie Ellis-Bextor sneaked some disco into her set at the largely-acoustic Avalon Stage, while the pulsing synthpop of Glaswegian band Chvrches made for a steamy atmosphere in the John Peel tent as fans danced off the downpour.
Arcade Fire took to the stage shortly after 22:00 BST, their arrival heralded by a man dressed from head-to-toe in a mirrored suit.
Bravely, considering the weather conditions, the 12-piece band were largely dressed in white, but if they were worried about laundry bills, it didn't show.
They threw themselves around the stage, thrashing and spinning as though plagued by a swarm of invisible bees, each member switching instruments between - and often during - songs.
As well as guitars, they played steel drums, xylophones and even a hurdy gurdy.
Frontman Win Butler made frequent excursions into the audience and, during the song Flashbulb Eyes, plucked a camera from a press photographer and carried it on stage to capture the band's performance.
The set list was evenly spread across their four albums, with highlights including No Cars Go, Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels) and Rebellion (Lies).
The group's recurring subject matter of suburban despair and alienation might have seemed like an odd fit for Glastonbury's peace and love ethos, but there is an optimism and belief in humanity at the core of their music.
Plus, they have really catchy choruses.
The band's willingness to embrace all walks of life was displayed on Friday night during the song We Exist - about a teenager whose father struggles to accept his sexuality.
As the opening chords rang out, a troupe of transgender and cross-dressing dancers joined the band onstage.
"Every one of us is born special and unique," said Butler. "However you are and however you were born, you're perfect."
The feel-good atmosphere continued throughout the two-hour set - ending with a mass singalong to the band's signature song, Wake Up.
Speaking to the BBC earlier in the day, the band's guitarist Richard Reed-Parry said they had enjoyed soaking up the Glastonbury atmosphere on Friday.
"There's a great feeling coming in," he said.
"It's a nice vibe. There's lots of families.
"It's not just about massive headlining acts. And it's not going to be a swamp of corporate beer-swilling drunkards.
"There's rain and there's mud but it's new and it doesn't smell bad yet. It's like, 'oh, this mud smells like grass! It's spring!'"
The music continues on Saturday with Jake Bugg, Pixies, Clean Bandit and Manic Street Preachers on the bill.
Among those watching the action will be Hollywood star Bradley Cooper, who told the BBC: "I'm excited to see Metallica and I want to see Jack White and Lana Del Rey."
Asked if he was put off by the weather, the Hangover star replied: "I love it. I do! But I'm a dumb American - you expect it."

After the mansion's contents were removed and charred timbers were carefully lifted out by crane, an archaeological salvage operation got under way which will continue until the spring.
Some of the first photographs of the ornate carvings saved by archaeological experts are shown here: | Since a devastating fire hit 18th Century Clandon Park in Surrey, reducing it to a shell, more than 400 objects have been salvaged from the burnt-out remains - but work continues on the fabric of the building itself. | 34950012 | [

Captain Scott Brown scored the only goal in Warsaw's Stadion Narodowy, where the two sides will meet again in October in a European qualifier.
"It meant absolutely nothing, because there will be changes," said Strachan. "These two teams won't be the same.
Media playback is not supported on this device
"But what it does, for the next couple of months, is give us confidence."
Scotland's next friendly is likely to be at Fulham's Craven Cottage in May, with Nigeria having invited Strachan's side to play them in London.
Wednesday was Scotland's third successive away win, and they have gone five matches unbeaten, the past four without conceding a goal.
"That's good and it's not easy to do that," Strachan told BBC Scotland, though he is not getting carried away with his side's improvement.
"It wasn't a great game. I don't think you could expect anything other than that at this time of the season in a friendly.
"It gave us a chance to have a look at them and vice versa, but we got some bonuses."
Strachan, who put the clean sheet down to hard work by his whole team, also praised debutant Andrew Robertson.
The 19-year-old Dundee United left-back came on as a second-half substitute a year to the day after playing for amateurs Queen's Park in a victory over Elgin City in Scotland's lowest tier.
"I thought it didn't faze him and that adds to our squad. If he can keep up his performances then there's no reason why he shouldn't be in the next one," Strachan said.
But the manager reserved most praise for Brown, whose powerful finish from the edge of the box followed up his winner in the previous friendly in Norway.
"I thought he was the man of the match, and that sealed it," Strachan said. "I thought he was fantastic.
"We're looking to be more potent in attack. We need to work at that, that's for sure, but we're hopeful of having players over the next six months who will add to that."
Brown put the improvement in form down to the players understanding their roles under Strachan.
"It shows you the form the lads are in," said the Celtic midfielder. "We're doing really well, we're listening to what the manager's got to say and we're putting it in place on the pitch.
"We're getting up the park as well and we're defending as a group. I think that's the main thing.
"We look like a team out there, we try to keep the ball as well."
Asked if he agreed with Strachan that victory would mean little come their return to Warsaw, Brown suggested it did give his side a slight edge.
"It's good to get a game and we know what they're like and we know we can play against them," he said.
Barry Bannan said the result in Warsaw kept the national side's unbeaten run going.
"Everyone in the changing room is delighted," he added. "Poland are in our group and we've had a look at them. We've given a good account of ourselves." | Scotland manager Gordon Strachan said his side's 1-0 friendly victory over Poland will have no effect on either team's Euro 2016 qualifying campaign. | 26461654 | [

After last year's test which focused on a collapse in house prices in the UK, this year's test will have a more international flavour.
Under the scenario, global growth will fall, the Chinese economy slow markedly and the UK and the eurozone will face a new bout of recession with rising unemployment and falling property prices.
In Britain, the economy will contract by 2.3%.
As the Bank grapples with the new crisis, interest rates in the UK are cut to zero.
And as the global economy slumps, the oil price collapses to $38 and deflation - causing companies to withdraw investment - "increases the real burden of debt and increases market concerns".
The world would see the worst levels of deflation since the 1930s.
Some major global banks and companies could default on debt repayments.
To be clear, the Bank's five-year scenario does not mean it believes these events will happen.
This is what is called a "tail-risk" event. It could happen but the probability is exceedingly low.
But then again, no-one predicted the severity of the financial crisis.
And actually this scenario is not as bad as what actually happened in 2008, even though it is put in place to try to stop those calamitous events ever occurring again.
Six banks will have their balance sheets tested against this stress test - HSBC, Barclays, Royal Bank of Scotland, Lloyds, Santander UK and Standard Chartered.
The building society Nationwide will also be tested.
Many believe that this will be a tougher test for banks with large international businesses - HSBC and Standard Chartered - than the UK domestic test of last year.
Co-op Bank, a mainly UK bank, has been dropped from this year's test.
"Last year's stress test demonstrated how much stronger the core of the UK financial system has become since the financial crisis," said Mark Carney, the governor of the Bank of England.
"This year's test will have a different focus.
"By assessing the resilience of the UK banking system against a major external shock, we will improve further our ability to identify vulnerabilities and we will ensure that banks have plans in place to address a wider range of possible stresses.
"We are committed to ensuring our major banks are resilient [and] that they can weather shocks without calling on tax payer support."
Under the scenario, banks will be obliged to continue lending to the UK economy, one of the biggest risks of a global turndown.
The results of the tests, which bank officials believe are "severe", will be published in December.
Banks might then be required to raise more capital to strengthened their balance sheets.
One big missing piece of the stress test is a break up of the eurozone.
That might seem odd, given events in Greece.
But Bank officials explain that the eurozone is a more immediate issue and that the direct exposure of the UK banks to Greece is low at about £2bn.
Put simply, British banks should already have in place the mechanisms to deal with a eurozone break-up. | The Bank of England has outlined its annual "stress test" - the exam Britain's major banks must go through to ensure they have enough available capital to withstand a global downturn. | 32116356 | [

They were arrested last week by police investigating dissident republican activity in the area.
Three men, aged 22, 24 and 46, have been charged with targeting a former member of the security forces in the Craigavon area.
A fourth, aged 22, has been charged with the attempted murder of police officers.
He is also charged with possessing explosives with intent to endanger life on 31 August in Lurgan.
The men will appear at Craigavon Magistrates Court on Tuesday.
A 22-year-old man arrested last Thursday as part of the same investigation was released unconditionally over the weekend.
Police, who described the device as "potentially lethal", said it had been recovered during a large-scale police operation.
Assistant Chief Constable Will Kerr said: "We are relieved and delighted to have taken an extremely dangerous explosive device out of circulation.
"Our experience of these devices in Northern Ireland has been that they have been used to try to kill police officers."
ACC Kerr said the device had been located in a derelict house in a residential area close to people's homes.
"Those responsible have absolutely no regard for the local community, or indeed any community," he said.
"I would also like to thank the local community for their patience and understanding during the disruption of search activity in recent days. Our primary aim has been community safety." | Four men have been charged after police recovered an armour-piercing mortar during searches in Lurgan. | 37475040 | [

The 35-year-old wing has signed for the Mitsubishi Dynaboars in Division Two of the Japanese League on a one-year deal.
Williams scored twice in his final competitive game as Ospreys .
"It was a last-minute offer that I had to give great thought to in a short space of time," Williams told Twitter.
"Really looking forward to this exciting venture."
Williams announced his in February after he turned down Ospreys' offer to extend his playing career with the Welsh region to a 10th season.
The 2008 International Rugby Board player of the year in December, with 58 tries in 87 games for his country and two in four Tests for the British and Irish Lions.
Williams signed off from the international stage in typical fashion, scoring a last-gasp try in the in Cardiff on 3 December.
The double-Grand Slam winner was also Ospreys' record try-scorer, with 57 touchdowns in 141 matches, and scored late on in his last game for both club and country.
But Williams' final appearance in Europe was for the Barbarians in their in Cardiff on 2 June.
He was expected to continue his association with the Ospreys next season by with the Liberty Stadium club but the Welsh region have released him for this "once in a lifetime" opportunity.
An Ospreys statement said: "Taking into account his fantastic service to the Ospreys, we understand that this is a once in a lifetime opportunity for Shane and his family to experience a new culture and life in a new country and will not stand in his way.
"We wish them the best of luck in Japan and look forward to welcoming Shane back to Ospreylia upon completion of his playing commitments, when he will continue to represent the region with distinction off the field."
Williams is second in international rugby's all-time try-scoring list behind Australian wing David Campese.
And the legendary wing follows former Ospreys team-mates Jerry Collins and Filo Tiatia, who joined Yamaha Jubilo and Toyota Verblitz respectively in 2011, to Japan. | Wales' record international try-scorer Shane Williams has completed a U-turn on his rugby retirement and will play for a Japanese side next season. | 18385023 | [

Instead it's been about her music, her age and whether she's been banned from the Radio 1 playlist.
The singer, 56, has a new album out, Rebel Heart, and the first official single is called Living for Love.
But Radio 1 says age has nothing to do with tracks not being playlisted.
Earlier this week, the station's Facebook page was flooded with messages urging the network to play Living for Love as part of the station's 10-Minute Takeover feature.
The fans, many from South America, accused the network of being "discriminatory".
Jordan, 24 and from Manchester, got in touch with Newsbeat to say he loves radio and "can't believe that Radio 1 has snubbed a song like Living for Love".
"I think there's a massive problem when it comes to radio playing, particularly, female singers over a certain age," he says.
"If this song had been recorded by someone younger, it would have had a lot more airplay by now.
"Madonna's a musical icon and as shown by her recent Grammy performance, she's just as relevant as any other recording artist out there right now."
There are several playlists run by Radio 1, including In New Music We Trust, and the tracks on it are published every week on the station's website.
In a statement, Radio 1 says: "The tracks are chosen on musical merit and their relevance to our young audience on a case-by-case basis, and while around 40% of the country's 15 to 29-year-olds tune into Radio 1 each week, an artist's age is never a factor."
Radio 1 DJ Diplo has also waded into the argument, tweeting "tell @BBCR1 age ain't nothing but a # and support Nicki Minaj and Madonna".
But Radio 1 bosses say this track didn't make the cut.
Newsbeat has occasionally been invited to sit in on the Radio 1 playlist meeting, which comprises the music team, production teams and of course - lunch.
It's a meeting that can go on for up to four hours, with in-depth discussions about songs, the audience and "musical merit".
But if you think about all the music being made and released in the world today, then you can imagine the competitive nature for the 15 places on the A playlist.
Sir Paul McCartney, 72, has two playlisted singles (Only One and FourFiveSeconds).
DJ David Guetta, 47, is on the list too with his track What I Did for Love featuring Emeli Sande as well as 39-year-old Sia and Foo Fighters, fronted by 47-year-old singer Dave Grohl (the band has a joint age of 232).

All Saints Day, 1 November, is when Catholics remember the saints and their own deceased family and friends.
In Poland, where it is a public holiday, people light candles at their relatives' graves.
Gunnersbury Cemetery in west London contains about 1,600 graves belonging to Poles or people of Polish origin, including many war veterans.
Volunteers from the Poland Street association are in attendance; about 100 people have turned up to sweep away leaves and light candles contained in glass lanterns, or znicze.
"This beautiful way of remembering those who have passed away takes on a new symbolic meaning abroad," says the association's spokeswoman, Anna Galandzij.
"It brings together older and younger generations of Polish expats, which is much needed now the UK has voted to leave the EU."
She adds: "The UK has been home to many generations of Poles, including the Polish Government in Exile, pilots who fought in the Battle of Britain, and soldiers of the Polish Home Army, who couldn't go back to Poland after the Second World War.
"Every candle we light on their graves is a tribute to what they did."
The president of the Polish Government in Exile, Kazimierz Sabbat, is among those buried at Gunnersbury and his daughters are present to see the clean-up.
Jolanta Sabbat and Anna Swidlicka say they are moved by the actions of Poland Street volunteers and the Polish Scouts who have given up their time.
"Attending to the graves reminds us of our roots," Anna says.
When her father understood that Communism would last in Poland and could not go back because he had served with Polish troops based in Scotland, "he taught us to respect the country we were in but also to remember our Polish heritage".
Elsewhere in the cemetery, friends Antonia Kocicowa and Zbigniew Konicki are lighting candles at the Katyn Memorial, commemorating the massacre of 22,000 Polish prisoners of war by the Soviet Secret Police in 1940.
On the other side of London, at St Patrick's Catholic Cemetery in Leytonstone, Agnieszka Adamska is co-ordinating more volunteers as they tend to about 300 Polish graves.
"It warms my heart when so many of us cultivate Polish traditions," she says.
"The act of getting together to remember our ancestors has a much deeper meaning than taking part in Halloween celebrations."
Meanwhile, Marek Stella-Sawicki, chairman of the Polish Heritage Society, has been coming to South Ealing Cemetery for 47 years to attend the graves of the many, largely forgotten, Polish servicemen laid to rest there.
He is keen to highlight one grave in particular, that of Stanisław Jachnik, the colonel of the Polish Airborne Brigade.
It was involved in the Battle of Arnhem in September 1944, when Allied troops were caught in a disastrous operation behind Nazi lines in the Netherlands.
Marek describes how Colonel Jachnik was among those parachuted into the town of Driel in September 1944.
"He was critical in helping the First British Airborne withdraw from Oosterbeek on the northern coast of the River Rhine. It is our duty to remember these people who risked their lives," he says. | Amid the revelry and dressing up at Halloween comes a more solemn occasion - one that is being upheld by the UK's Polish community this week. | 37818371 | [

The man, 41, was helped from the Audi TT which had been driven at speed into Carr Mill reservoir in St Helens on Monday evening, Merseyside Police said.
Five officers were filmed rescuing him from the slowly sinking vehicle.
The man was found to be uninjured when taken to hospital. He was detained on suspicion of a number of offences.
These included the unauthorised taking of a motor vehicle, burglary, dangerous driving and failing to stop, police said.
Officers started tracking the suspected stolen Audi in Liverpool at about 20:20 GMT.
When police attempted to stop the car, the driver sped off, leading to a police pursuit up the M62.
Officers deployed a stop-stick before the Audi continued to be driven at speed and finally into the reservoir.
The officers who went into the water were also checked over as a precaution and have all been released.
Ch Supt Jon Ward said: "The officers involved in this pursuit and rescue acted with exceptional bravery, tenacity and professionalism to rescue the man on a bitterly cold, wet and miserable evening.
"Without a second thought given to their own safety and the conditions, they entered the freezing water and dragged him through the rear of the car just before it became completely submerged." | Helicopter footage of officers wading into icy waters to rescue a man who had driven a suspected stolen car into a reservoir has been released by police. | 38069308 | [

Three years ago, Swedish software consultancy Crisp decided that the answer was no.
The firm, which has about 40 staff, had already trialled various organisational structures, including the more common practice of having a single leader running the company.
Crisp then tried changing its chief executive annually, based on a staff vote, but eventually decided collectively that no boss was needed.
Yassal Sundman, a developer at the firm, explains: "We said, 'what if we had nobody as our next CEO - what would that look like?' And then we went through an exercise and listed down the things that the CEO does."
The staff decided that many of the chief executive's responsibilities overlapped with those of the board, while other roles could be shared among other employees.
"When we looked at it we had nothing left in the CEO column, and we said, 'all right, why don't we try it out?'" says Ms Sundman.
Crisp holds four-day meetings for all staff two to three times a year. They are used to making decisions on issues that affect everyone, such as an office move, but workers are encouraged to make decisions themselves at other times.
It also still has a board - a legal requirement - and this can be used as a last resort to resolve issues if something is not working.
Henrik Kniberg, an organisational coach at the firm, argues that not having to ask a boss for decisions on projects or budgets means the firm can respond faster.
"If you want to get something done, you stand up and start driving that," he says.
Yet Mr Kniberg stresses that not having to ask permission does not remove the need for staff to discuss issues or bounce ideas off each other.
Because they are all in charge, workers are more motivated, he argues. Crisp regularly measures staff satisfaction, and the average is about 4.1 out of five.
The company is set up like a family, says Mr Kniberg. While nobody tells anyone exactly what to do, the unspoken understanding is that you don't mess up the house.
But what if the rest of the staff feel that one worker has made a terrible decision?
Ms Sundman says that is okay. "At least you did the thing that was right in the moment - and then we can have a discussion about it. You can explain why it is that you thought this was a good way, and actually you might get everybody else to think the same way."
Ultimately, the firm hopes that its way of working could inspire other companies to emulate the "Crisp DNA".
Although Crisp's move may seem radical, plenty of companies have trialled a similar arrangement. One of the best-known is online shoe and clothing retailer Zappos, which is owned by Amazon.
In 2013 the firm adopted a new management structure called "holacracy", which was intended to eliminate workplace hierarchy and foster collaboration.
However, almost a fifth of Zappos staff subsequently departed, with chief executive Tony Hsieh admitting that "self-management is not for everyone".
While there is a growing trend for flatter organisational structures - meaning fewer middle managers and bosses - most of the more radical experiments are taking place in small start-ups.
As well as employing fewer people, such firms do not have the long corporate history that can make major changes much more difficult to implement.
Drew Houston, founder of online file-sharing service Dropbox, does not believe a leaderless structure can work in larger firms because it would be too chaotic.
The main risk, he says, is that staff will encroach into each other's areas of responsibility, making them less efficient.
"Often infinite freedom like that can be pretty disorientating. It doesn't always feel good, because you no longer know what you're supposed to do, what's important and you're bumping up against other people," Mr Houston says.
Similarly, Meg Whitman, chief executive of technology giant Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), firmly believes that companies need a leader.
"You've got to have the accountability, because if people in your organisation don't know what they're doing and how it affects the customers, then you've got a disconnect problem," she says.
However, HPE has tackled one problem that hinders many big companies: the time it takes to make decisions.
"We tended to let decisions sit for way too long a time," Ms Whitman says. "So we now have a little saying at Hewlett Packard Enterprise: you've got to escalate a decision or a challenge and you have to resolve it in 48 hours."
CEO coach and author Steve Tappin says even if firms are sceptical of companies that don't have a single boss, it is worth paying attention to the likes of Crisp.
"Many businesses may not want to go as far as getting rid of their chief executive, but there are valid lessons to be learnt from radical companies like Crisp," he says.

Mr Ruto and his family were not at the compound near the western city of Eldoret at the time.
Specialist troops had been deployed to deal with the intruder, who was hiding in a partially-constructed building, police said.
Earlier reports suggested a number of gunmen had entered Mr Ruto's home.
"In circumstances that are yet unclear, he hit an officer on duty with a machete and managed to enter the farm complex," National Police Inspector General Joseph Boinnet said in a statement.
There were also reports of gunfire. The wounded police officer was in a stable condition, police said.
The incident comes 10 days before Kenya holds presidential, legislative and regional elections.
The deputy president had left hours earlier for a campaign rally in the town of Kitale, where he joined President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Mr Kenyatta is seeking re-election next month.
While Kenya's 2013 elections passed relatively peacefully, there was serious post-election violence following the 2007 polls, which left more than 1,000 people dead and 600,000 displaced from their homes.
However, experts say they do not expect to see the same level of conflict following the 8 August vote. | A man armed with a machete has forced his way into the rural home of Kenya's Deputy President William Ruto after wounding a police guard, police say. | 40764446 | [

Along with his fellow student Abhay Singhal, not only did they achieve that task, but they have also built GreyOrange, a multi-national robotics company based in India and operating across Asia.
"We've done some stuff that India was not supposed to do," Mr Kohli told the BBC. "People are not supposed to build hardware, robot products, out of India and we've been able to do that."
So how did GreyOrange grow from an engineering classroom to an international robotics player?
Mr Kohli and Mr Singhal proved their teacher wrong, building India's first humanoid robot, which they called Acyut. They then entered their creation in kung fu competitions and international robot football championships.
The team also won several robotic competitions around the world.
But it was a different passion that has seen GreyOrange grow - not for sport, but for online shopping.
The e-commerce sector in India has seen unprecedented growth in the last few years.
Roughly 350 million Indian citizens are online and according to international payment company WorldPay, that will nearly double by 2020, when they will spend $63.7bn (£51.8bn) online.
Despite companies often making a loss as they offer deeper and deeper discounts to attract customers, investors have flooded into the sector. More than $5bn (£4bn) of private investment was ploughed into the sector in 2015, according to global consultancy PwC.
Amazon recently announced it would invest an additional $3bn in India, on top of the $2bn it announced in 2014.
While online retailing is only a part of e-commerce, it is the area that many see as the one with the biggest growth potential.
Those retailers servicing millions of consumers will need to keep their goods in warehouses, and those warehouses need to be efficient. That's where GreyOrange has positioned itself.
In India, GreyOrange says it has 90% of the warehouse automation market and it has worked with leading e-commerce and logistics firms in the country.
They also run eight offices in five countries and employ more than 650 people.
"Warehouses are everywhere and they are supposed to become more and more intelligent as consumer demand increases.'' says Mr Kohli.
GreyOrange has two different robots to help warehouses become more productive.
Butler, an artificial intelligence-powered robotic system, helps pick products from shelves in the warehouse.
''A single person would pick about 100 to 120 items in one day. With our Butler robot, he is able to pick 400 to 500 items every hour." Mr Kohli says.
The second robot, Sorter, automates the sorting of outgoing packages in a distribution centre.
They say that the robots they already have installed can potentially sort three million packages every day.
One of the biggest challenges to the company's success has been sourcing parts.
''India does not have a very strong hardware ecosystem." explains Paula Mariwala, who invests in technology based start-ups for SeedFund.
"So to source the right products and to get manufacturing going at a large scale in the early stages is particularly difficult. You would not be able to try out different components to have different versions of the product very easily - your time cycles will be longer. ''
The size of the potential prize is what has helped the founders overcome these problems.
''We were looking at how robots are going to be the next revolution that is coming right, the next decade is going to be all about making humans more efficient by using robots more and that's essentially how we got started.'' Mr Kohli says.
''Robots are needed to work with humans and not to replace them. Humans will always be there in the workplace, but robots make a very important part of the ecosystem they work with.
"Ten years ago, every person did not have a computer, today every person has one computer. We look at robots in that sense: as everyone has one computer, in the future they will have one robot with them to help them do their work better.
"It's a trillion-dollar opportunity, that's the space we're fighting in. '' | In 2008, engineering student Samay Kohli wanted to build a humanoid robot, but his professor told him it would not be possible. | 38664034 | [

Now, the community is turning to introspection.
Questions are being raised in the province around radicalisation and whether there is a climate of intolerance that needs to be addressed.
On Monday, Alexandre Bissonette, a 27-year-old University of Laval student, was charged with six counts of first-degree murder and five counts of attempted murder.
Police have not said what motivated the alleged attacker, who opened fire at the Quebec Islamic Cultural Centre during evening prayers.
Quebec attack: Who were the victims?
Quebec Muslims 'emotionally destroyed'
Who is Alexandre Bissonnette?
But there are reports that Mr Bissonette expressed anti-immigration and anti-feminist views online.
Francois Deschamps, an official with an advocacy group, Welcome to Refugees, said the suspect was known for those views online.
Vivek Venkatesh, a professor with Montreal's Concordia University who studies online hate and radicalisation, says social media creates "echo chambers", where more extreme views can gain traction.
He says while Quebec is "still reeling" from the mosque shooting, it is important that there be a public debate in the province on how to prevent radicalisation and violent extremism in all its forms.
Pierre Martin, a political science professor with the University of Montreal, says that it appears Mr Bissonette may have been influenced by a mix of global nationalist trends, the so-called "alt-right", and "currents within Quebec itself".
Trump’s shock troops: Who are the ‘alt-right’?
In the 1960s, Quebec shifted quickly from a highly religious society to a deeply secular culture.
"People (now) tend to be critical of religion in general and how religion shapes people's social interactions," he said.
He said Quebecers tend to reject overt displays of religion.
For example, the province has debated in the past few years whether government workers should be allowed to wear clothing that showed their faith, like hijabs or turbans.
Mr Martin said the current provincial Liberal government is seen as being overly permissive on the issue while the opposition "have tended to be criticised for seizing some currents of resentment and exploiting them for political purposes".
But he says the fact that thousands of Quebecers attended candlelight vigils on Monday showed "that the large majority of people who may have even traces of reservations about ostentatious displays of religion in the public sphere are extremely tolerant of private observance".
Quebec Premier Philippe Couillard echoed that on Tuesday, telling journalists that while "all societies live with demons and our society is not perfect", the majority of the province is open to newcomers.
Still, many in Quebec City's Muslim community have said over that past two days that they have concerns about Islamophobia in the province.
Amira Elghawaby, with the National Council of Canadian Muslims, says that in Quebec, recent debates around the niqab - like whether to ban the wearing of the face veil while offering or receiving public services - have been "toxic" and contributed to the mischaracterisation of Muslims as the "other." | The shock from Sunday night's deadly the Quebec mosque shooting is slowly waning. | 38804854 | [

The move reunites the 21-year-old with former boss David Moyes, as well as ex-team-mates Donald Love and Paddy McNair who joined for a £5.5m fee this week.
Belgium international Januzaj had asked to leave Old Trafford on a permanent transfer but United preferred a loan.
He has scored five goals in 63 appearances for the club and is under contract until the summer of 2018.
Januzaj spent four months on loan to Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund last season, but played only 12 games before returning to his parent club.
United boss Jose Mourinho said of the switch: "He fits in my plans. That is why he is on loan at a Premier League club
"If he doesn't fit in my plans, I don't care where he is going, I just send him to Borussia Dortmund where he didn't play one match. He is talented." | Manchester United winger Adnan Januzaj has joined fellow Premier League side Sunderland on a season-long loan. | 37061464 | [

West Yorkshire Fire Service said half of Freeston Academy in Normanton, near Wakefield was ablaze at one point, leaving the building badly damaged.
More than 50 firefighters attended after the alarm was raised at 09:10 BST. The blaze was brought under control by about 12:00.
The fire service said there were no injuries and students were unaffected.
Local residents were advised to keep windows closed and stay inside at the height of the fire.
Ian Bitcon, area manager for the fire service, said the blaze was in the roof of the school which was "difficult to deal with due to access".
He said: "We've been very fortunate in that the school's unoccupied and there's been a very good water supply.
"We appear to pretty much have it cracked now."
A caller to Radio Leeds said: "I was on my way home when I saw this massive smoke and flames.
"They turned us all away and stopped us all going up the street.
"There's loads of kids here waiting for their GCSE results and they're all coming away in tears."
Students at the school were later directed to the sports hall to collect their exam results.
A woman whose daughter had been to collect her exam results at the school said: "It's been a crazy day".
She told BBC Radio Leeds: "It's been an emotional rollercoaster. First, getting up and waiting to come in and pick up the results.
"But then to hear the school was on fire. It's just been an utter drama."
In a statement, the school said: "Our main priority was the safety of our staff, students and contractors working on site, and to ensure that our year 11 students were able to collect their GCSE results.
"Following advice from the fire service, all students were able to collect their GCSE results from outside the sports hall.
"All staff on the site were accounted for and no one was hurt in the fire." | A large fire broke out a school as students gathered to collect their GCSE results. | 34001061 | [

Six documents taken from an old account belonging to Mr Brennan were published by the anti-secrecy group WikiLeaks.
The CIA said there was "no indication" that anything classified was released.
But the documents do include a draft security clearance application containing personal information.
They appear to all date to 2009, when Mr Brennan was seeking security clearance while applying for a job as a White House counterterrorism adviser.
He was working in the private sector at the time, having already spent 25 years working for the CIA between 1980 and 2005.
A high-school student claimed he was responsible for hacking the AOL account, telling Nthe New York Post he was protesting against US foreign policy.
The boy's Twitter account, which says he is 13, has published redacted images of what appears to be government information.
The documents published by Wikileaks include a draft on national security challenges said to have been created in 2007.
The final, unfinished paragraph is headed "Damaging Leaks of Classified Information".
A 2008 letter about interrogation methods is also included, appearing to be from the vice-chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence to his fellow board members.
Wikileaks said it would release more documents "over the coming days".
The FBI and the Secret Service are investigating the hacking. The CIA stressed that none of the documents released so far were classified.
"In fact, they appear to be documents that a private citizen with national security interests and expertise would be expected to possess," a statement said.
High-profile leaks including a wealth of diplomatic cables from Wikileaks have dogged the US government in recent years.
The use of private email has become a major issue in recent months for White House hopeful Hillary Clinton, since it emerged that she had operated a private account while secretary of state.
Mr Brennan became director of the CIA in 2013, having spent four years as assistant to the president for homeland security and counterterrorism. | The CIA has condemned the hacking of director John Brennan's personal email account, describing it as a "crime" carried out with "malicious intent". | 34597060 | [

A deal was made by the two main parties and the British and Irish governments to resolve a crisis at Stormont.
Solutions were found on issues over paramilitarism and welfare reform.
But Deputy Chief Constable Drew Harris said a lack of consensus over how to deal with the past was a let-down to police and Troubles victims' families.
DCC Harris said an extra £160m of government funding to tackle dissident republicans that was agreed in the deal was much needed.
He added the agreement's initiatives to tackle paramilitarism and organised crime were also positive.
But a proposed new independent Historical Investigations Unit, which would have taken on the Police Service of Northern Ireland's (PSNI) responsibility for outstanding Troubles murder investigations, has not yet been approved.
DCC Harris said: "We are on record as saying the formation of a Historical Investigations Unit would provide an opportunity for a more structured and coherent approach to dealing with the past, allowing the PSNI to concentrate primarily on keeping people safe today."
He said that in absence of that body the PSNI would have to ensure its "finite resources are used in the most effective manner".
"We must balance keeping people safe today with our continued duties in relation to the past.
"The reality is the financial challenges facing us will continue to have a direct impact on how we respond to the demands of the past and the pace at which those demands can be serviced."
Sinn Féin's Martin McGuinness said talks on the legacy of the past failed because the government would not commit to full disclosure of classified documents relating to Troubles incidents on national security grounds.
He added: "That pretext for blocking disclosure is clearly nonsense as much of the information families are looking for is related to events 30 to 40 years ago."
Northern Ireland Secretary Theresa Villiers, who helped broker the agreement, is to meet relatives of Troubles victims to discuss their concerns over the deal.
It had been a "bitter pill for victims to swallow", according the the victims' commissioner Judith Thompson.
She said victims "deserve respect and consideration and they cannot be shunted off into a dead end".
"It is not good enough to build up hopes for the most comprehensive set of proposals yet to address victims' and survivors' needs and then fail to deliver."
Ms Thompson added that politicians must give a timescale for "the issues that are being put in the 'too difficult' box once again".
Alan McBride, whose wife was killed in the IRA's 1993 bombing of a fishmonger's on Belfast's Shankill Road, said he was uncertain whether legacy issues would ever be resolved.
"My frustration is that they're not going to be able to agree on this, so therefore there's going to be another opportunity wasted," he said.
"There is talking still on going, and that has got to be welcomed, because we have to give out hope to victims and survivors."
Mike Ritchie, a case work manager for the Relatives for Justice victims' group, said that while he was disappointed with the outcome of the political negotiations, he would prefer no deal to "a bad deal".
"To set up a bad process again would be very difficult for victims' families," Mr Ritchie said.
"If we're going to have a deal let's have a good deal."
He added that pressure would remain on Northern Ireland's politicians to deal with legacy issues.
"This isn't going away. I think that we'll be back talking about this in due course." | A senior police officer has said he is disappointed the latest Northern Ireland political agreement has not addressed the legacy of the Troubles. | 34856885 | [

Michael McConville told the BBC he took Mr Adams' remarks "as a threat".
Asked about Mr McConville's allegation, Mr Adams said: "I didn't say that."
He was released without charge on Sunday after being questioned for four days about the 1972 killing.
The Sinn Féin president claimed there was a "sustained, malicious, untruthful campaign" against him.
It is believed police had wanted to charge Mr Adams with IRA membership.
It is likely that police would have considered such a charge before he was released on Sunday night, but did not have sufficient evidence for a reasonable prospect of prosecution.
Jean McConville, a 37-year-old widow and mother-of-10, was abducted from her Belfast home, shot and secretly buried. Her body was found on a beach in County Louth in 2003.
She was kidnapped from her home in Divis Flats in west Belfast in front of her children after being wrongly accused of being an informer for the British Army.
Her son Michael said his family would fight "to the bitter end" for justice.
He said he had met Mr Adams around the time that the then Northern Ireland Police Ombudsman Nuala O'Loan was drawing up a report that would go on to dismiss claims Mrs McConville was an informer.
Mr McConville said: "Gerry Adams says to me, 'Michael, you are getting a letter of support from the republican people'.
"He says 'if you release the names I hope you are ready for the backlash' - I took it as a threat."
Mr Adams denied making such a comment.
"If Michael McConville wants to give names, he should do so - that's entirely his right," he said.
Mr Adams, the former MP for West Belfast and current representative for County Louth in the Irish parliament, presented himself for interview by prior arrangement with detectives on Wednesday night.
He was then arrested under the terrorism act for questioning about the IRA murder of Mrs McConville.
BBC News understands there was insufficient evidence to charge Mr Adams with any offence.
The Sinn Fein president was questioned for four days in connection with the murder of Jean McConville and membership of the IRA.
He has strongly denied all those allegations.
A file will be sent to the public prosecution service in Northern Ireland later this week but it is thought that unless significant new evidence comes to light, he will not face any charge.
Speaking at a news conference in Belfast following his release, Mr Adams said he had contacted Northern Ireland police two months ago about the McConville case.
He questioned the timing of his arrest in the middle of an election campaign and claimed they could have used discretion rather than "pernicious, coercive legislation" to deal with the matter.
He again said he was innocent of any involvement in Mrs McConville's murder.
He said Sinn Féin remained fully committed to the political process in Northern Ireland. "The IRA is gone, it's finished," he said.
"I want to make it clear that I support the PSNI."
Northern Ireland Justice Minister David Ford said he "saw no reason" why Mr Adams' release without charge would damage confidence in the police.
"With the way that Northern Ireland politics operates, there is never a good time to do anything - if it had been before Christmas it would have been the Haass talks; as soon as the election campaign is over, people would be talking about a difficult marching season," said the Alliance Party leader.
"You could always produce an excuse for the police not to do their duty at any time."
The decision to release Mr Adams means that prosecution lawyers will decide if charges will be brought.
The file sent by the police to the Public Prosecution Service (PPS) will detail the evidence gathered.
It will be up to PPS lawyers to decide if there is enough evidence to bring any charges and what those charges would be.
The test for prosecution is met if there is sufficient evidence that can be admitted in court to provide a reasonable prospect of conviction. Lawyers must also decide if the prosecution is required in the public interest.
It could take some time for police to prepare the file for the PPS, with prosecutors then taking a further period to assess whatever evidence is presented.
Meanwhile, one of Mrs McConville's daughters, Helen McKendry, has said she is hopeful that the family will raise the money to take a civil case against the Sinn Fein president for the murder of her mother.
Last month, Ivor Bell, 77, a leader in the Provisional IRA in the 1970s, was charged with aiding and abetting the murder, and there have also been a number of other arrests recently.
The case against Mr Bell is based on an interview he allegedly gave to researchers at Boston College in the US.
The Boston College tapes are a series of candid, confessional interviews with former loyalist and republican paramilitaries, designed to be an oral history of the Troubles.
One of the academics involved at the outset of the project said it had been "a car crash".
Lord Bew of Queen's University, Belfast, said: "I think that one of the sad things is that, first of all most importantly, not one whit of improvement has occurred for those who have suffered during the Troubles.
"Academically, there is a freeze now around all similar projects and that has to be regretted." | A son of Jean McConville has said Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams warned him several years ago there would be a "backlash" if he released the names of those he believed killed her. | 27280446 | [

In return Venezuela accused Chile of "inadmissible interventionism" and a "lack of diplomatic circumspection".
Braulio Jatar was taken into custody on 3 September after publishing videos of a protest against Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro.
Mr Jatar was born in Chile and also has Venezuelan nationality.
He is an open supporter of the opposition and runs a news website on Margarita island in Venezuela.
The Committee to Protect Journalists, a New York-based pressure group, called on Venezuela to "allow all journalists to report freely".
On Monday. Brazil's foreign minister also criticised the Venezuelan government's actions, saying the country had seen an increase in what he called "arbitrary detentions".
Jose Serra told a local newspaper such detentions "make it even more difficult to have the dialogue between government and opposition that is indispensable for overcoming the dramatic political, economic, social and humanitarian crisis that is affecting Venezuela".
At the start of September, Mr Jatar released videos of a protest when island residents jeered the president.
Protests have been a regular occurrence in Venezuela as the opposition calls for President Maduro to be removed from power. They blame him for the country's economic crisis and accuse the electoral commission of delaying a referendum that could shorten his rule.
President Maduro accuses the opposition of trying to stage a coup.
Mr Jatar was arrested with about 30 other people on Margarita island. The others have since been released but Mr Jatar is still in detention and his family believe he is not on the island any more.
Some reports said the authorities claimed he had tens of thousands of dollars in cash, which was to be used to attack an international summit starting on Margarita island on Tuesday.
Venezuelan prosecutors have not commented on the detention but the foreign ministry said he was suspected of extortion and fraud.
Chile demanded at the weekend that Venezuela make the journalist's whereabouts known.
The Venezuelan government said it "rejected" the demand and accused the Chilean foreign minister of "bowing to pressure from the most reactionary sections of the bourgeoisie" who still support General Pinochet, the country's former right-wing dictator.
Chile's response was to say that "the promotion and defence of human rights do not have borders" and Mr Jatar had not had access to his lawyer in a week. | The government of Chile has demanded that Venezuela "immediately" disclose the location of a journalist who was detained earlier this month. | 37348643 | [

The former Hearts captain recently left Leeds, having moved to Elland Road last summer despite a trial at Rangers.
"I'm excited to come here from Leeds and on the first day it felt like it was the right decision," Zaliukas told the club's website.
"It's a brilliant stadium and it's going to be fun to play here."
Zaliukas played more than 200 times for Hearts over seven years, but made just 15 appearances for Leeds last term.
His first competitive match for Rangers could be against Hibs in the Challenge Cup on 5 August.
The Ibrox outfit's first Scottish Championship fixture of the campaign is against Hearts at Ibrox on 10 August.
"I think the Championship is going to be a very interesting league because Hearts and Hibs are in here, and even Falkirk and Queen of the South are going to be tough teams," the 30-year-old added.
"I think our squad could compete straight away in the Premiership, everyone is experienced and top players. I think we are going to have a very good squad."
Rangers have also added former St Mirren defender Darren McGregor to their ranks this summer. | Lithuanian defender Marius Zaliukas has signed a two-year contract with Rangers, after impressing during a trial with the Ibrox club. | 28271776 | [

Kayleigh Haywood, from Measham in Leicestershire, was found dead last November.
Stephen Beadman, 29, of George Avenue, Ibstock, admitted raping and murdering the teenager at a hearing in April.
He and Luke Harlow, 27, also of George Avenue, are on trial at Nottingham Crown Court after both denied a charge of false imprisonment.
Harlow had also previously pleaded guilty to sexual grooming and two counts of sexual activity with a child.
Miranda Moore QC, prosecuting, told the jury that Kayleigh went willingly to Harlow's flat in Ibstock, Leicestershire on 13 November.
She believed they were in a "secret relationship" after chatting on Facebook for about a fortnight, the court heard, and had told her family she was staying with her best friend.
Harlow - who called himself "Luke Fun Times Harlow" online - told the teenager she was his "princess" who he would "love and treasure forever".
"On that night Kayleigh had been given substantial amounts of alcohol and she had been sexually touched by Luke Harlow," said Ms Moore.
"She was underage and he knew it. He was later to lie about that, pretending to people that she was much older."
Ms Moore said the false imprisonment charge centred around what happened to Kayleigh between 21:00 and 03:00 BST on 14 and 15 November.
Both men are alleged to have held Kayleigh against her will.
The jury heard that at one point, Kayleigh had tried to escape Harlow's flat and was seen by a witness leaving the property naked from the waist down.
"What happened to her in that property to make her flee into the night?" Ms Moore said.
"What we know is that she was chased by Mr Beadman and pinned to the ground. This was seen by somebody from their upstairs window.
"At some point, far from being this drunken, compliant girl, Kayleigh became somebody who wanted to get out of that flat."
Ms Moore said that the witness mistook Beadman for a policeman.
Beadman then took her "off into the night, where she was raped and murdered by him".
After Beadman had been by interviewed by police for three days and directed officers to a location on the outskirts of Ibstock.
Her body was then discovered in thick undergrowth near a stream.
Following examinations of Harlow's phone, police discovered he had sought to groom other girls.
His intention was to kidnap them, get them drunk, have sex and keep them in his flat, the jury was told.
"Kayleigh Haywood was not the only girl Luke Harlow groomed," Ms Moore said. "She was the last in the line."
He has also admitted attempting to meet two other underage girls for sexual purposes.
Police from across the East Midlands helped with the hunt for the teenager after she went missing on 13 November.
A passerby found Kayleigh's smashed phone on the ground in Ibstock. The last number she had dialled was the number of the friend she said she was staying with.
An inquest heard she died from head and facial injuries.
The trial - which is expected to last until next week - continues. | A 15-year-old girl was seen fleeing a house half-naked before a man chased, raped and murdered her, a court heard. | 36490566 | [

Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority (CPCC), set up this year, originally estimated annual running costs of about £1.3m.
But the authority's scrutiny committee voted against approving it, with one member asking if recruitment plans were "written on the back of a bus ticket".
CPCC said a reason for the rise was that a new authority was being created.
The authority, created under government devolution plans, intends to employ 15 staff, including newly-created housing, skills and transport director roles all on annual salaries above £100,000.
After Wednesday's decision by the scrutiny committee, the process of recruiting any new staff cannot begin until CPCC has reconsidered its budget, the deadline for which is 31 August.
Labour Cambridge city councillor Dave Baigent, a member of the scrutiny committee, asked of the new jobs: "Were these ideas written down on the back of a bus ticket? Were they discussed with councillors in advance?"
Lucy Nethsinga, a Liberal Democrat county councillor, said she had concerns over how these jobs overlapped with those in county and district councils.
CPCC chief executive Martin Whiteley said: "We, with 15 staff, will be substantially smaller than any other devolved authority in the country.
"I don't envisage us creating a big shiny office. We'll be looking to work flexibly across council offices." | A new devolved authority has been ordered to review its estimated budget after it rose by £500,000. | 40952606 | [

Senior judges in Belfast have lifted an injunction on the PSNI taking possession of Winston Rea's recorded account to Boston College researchers.
Detectives were present with a bag ready for the handover of the tapes.
They were given the all-clear after lawyers for Mr Rea confirmed their final bid to secure a block had been turned down.
The tapes had been held under lock and key at the Royal Courts of Justice.
The European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg refused to grant an interim prohibition as part of efforts to stop the PSNI from obtaining them.
A judge said the time had come "to lift the injunction and allow the materials to be examined by the police".
Detectives want to access the recordings as part of their investigations into murder and other paramilitary crimes from the 1970s to 1990s.
Mr Rea's legal team argued that it would breach his right to privacy.
He was among dozens of loyalists and republicans who provided testimonies to Boston College staff compiling an oral history of the Northern Ireland conflict.
Interviews were given on the understanding that tapes would not be made public until after their deaths.
In 2013, detectives investigating the abduction and murder of Belfast mother-of-10 Jean McConville in 1972 secured the transcripts of former IRA woman Dolours Price's account.
That material was handed over following court battles on both sides of the Atlantic.
Mr Rea's barrister said his client was "confident that there is nothing in his past or anything contained in these tapes which hasn't already been dealt with by the criminal courts".
"He's a man who has health difficulties," he added.
On that basis, lawyers for both the Public Prosecution Service (PPS) and the PSNI Chief Constable argued that the recordings should now be released. | Police are finally to get access to interviews a former loyalist prisoner gave to an American university project. | 33017930 | [

At one stage, winds were gusting at 55 knots and winds over 48 knots are not safe for airport staff to work in.
As a result, passengers on nine planes were unable to leave as it was too windy to put access steps in place.
Some passengers were kept on planes for two hours, but wind speeds eventually dropped, allowing them to disembark.
Flights from Edinburgh, Tenerife, Liverpool, Manchester, Birmingham, Newcastle, Glasgow, Gatwick and Bristol landed, but flights, from Luton and Tenerife were diverted to Dublin.
Belfast man Martin Garland was on a flight from Liverpool that landed at 19:30 GMT.
Speaking from the plane, he said: "People are starting to get irritated now and there's a number of elderly passengers that are now getting agitated with the heat on the plane," he said.
"Most people seem to be playing on their phones, the pilot has been getting people up into the cockpit and letting the kids play."
Thomas Spence, who arrived at the airport on a flight from Tenerife, was unable to reclaim his luggage as baggage handlers could not unload baggage from the plane.
Returning to the airport on Wednesday morning to retrieve his bags, he said: "When we were sitting [in the plane], it was rocking on the tarmac.
"You actually thought you were still in the air.
"But it was good to be on the ground because it was a rough flight, it was bouncing everywhere, and we were just glad to get touched down.
"When you came off the plane, it was really windy and you could understand why we were stuck on the plane."
Alan Whiteside, the airport's operations director, said the weather conditions had been "probably the worst we've had in quite a number of years".
"The real issue is the safety of the both personnel operating the steps and the aircraft doors, and the passengers," he said.
"In those kind of winds, those large-sided steps will just start to move, so it's unsafe to put them on unsafe to try to get passengers off.
"It was a fairly horrendous night." | Passengers flying into Belfast International Airport were prevented from getting off planes for a time on Tuesday night due to high winds. | 35195651 | [

Colchester Hospital was rated as inadequate after a recent Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspection found it was relying on "unsuitable" agency staff.
Norman Betchley died in 2009 after he was mistakenly fed a pill by an agency nurse.
The hospital said the CQC report did not reflect improvements it has made.
Inspectors said the hospital demonstrated "poor leadership" and "only a limited capacity to improve".
Staff were let down by agency workers, who were not as committed and were "unsuitable in terms of their skills and knowledge".
Mr Betchley's daughter Linda said she feels angry that "nothing has changed" since he died.
More on this story on BBC Local Live in Essex
She added: "At the time they said there was a deficit in trained staff and there was a breakdown in management and the girl was thrown in at the deep end.
"Many of the items raised in this most recent report were raised back then. I don't see them being addressed soon.
"There is no leadership, there is no support for the actual nurses on the wards."
Chief executive Frank Sims, who started in the role last month, admitted its biggest challenge is "reducing our dependency on agency staff."
"We have got more staff employed now than we have ever had, and since September we have recruited 75 more qualified nurses but we have still got a long way to go."
The trust which runs the hospital has been in special measures since 2013.
The CQC has recommended it remains in special measures for the next three months, during which time it must submit a weekly improvement plan.
Mr Sims said his intention is to "focus entirely on getting out of special measures this year". | The daughter of a man who died after a hospital failed it its "duty of care" said lessons have not been learned. | 35351364 | [

Media playback is not supported on this device
The world number two inspired Great Britain to win the Davis Cup for the first time in 79 years with victory over Belgium in Ghent over the weekend.
Captain Leon Smith urged the LTA to use that triumph to inspire future players, but Murray, 28, said he "did not know where the next generation are".
"Nothing ever gets done and I don't like wasting my time," he said.
The Scot added he has not discussed the lack of young British players competing in Grand Slams with LTA chief executive Michael Downey.

"I don't speak to any of the people who are in a high-up position about that," Murray revealed. "I haven't really spoken to them about anything.
"It's concerning not to have any juniors in the Grand Slams because that is something we were always very good at. It's not ideal."
Downey earlier said Britain's Davis Cup win was a "special, emotional moment" that could drive interest in the sport.
Before the final in Ghent, Murray was criticised by former Great Britain Davis Cup captain David Lloyd for not putting enough back into the game.
"I'd rather concentrate on my own stuff and when I've finished playing, I'll have a lot more time to try and help or give back to the game," Murray added.
"Just now, I've just got to concentrate on trying to win as much as possible."
Murray said one of his main frustrations was a lack of players to practise with whenever he is in the UK.
After returning from the Shanghai Masters in October, Murray said he arrived at the National Training Centre in London to find no other players present.
"I was there on a Monday at about 3pm and then on Tuesday, at the same time," he said.
"There was not one person using any of the indoor courts and not one person in the gym. I took photos of it because the place cost like £40m and there are no people."
Prior to Murray's comments, Smith said the LTA needed to quickly create a long-term strategy to capitalise on his team's victory.
Smith also praised Judy Murray's tennis programmes but said the mother of British number one Andy and doubles specialist Jamie "needs a lot of help".
"She can't keep doing it on her own," he added.

Murray leads the LTA's Miss-Hits programme - an introductory course for girls aged between five and eight - and a Scottish-based scheme, Tennis on the Road.
Smith, who became Davis Cup captain five years ago with the team a play-off away from relegation to the event's lowest tier, added: "At the end of the day, we all care about British tennis a lot.
"What we want to see is more people playing, so there should be a bigger talent pool in years to come.
"It really is an important time to get strategies rolled out as quickly as possible, not only to get people on the court but to keep them on the court. We need to offer them good clubs and good coaches that turn up in all weather and bang out great sessions. Let's hope it has a positive influence, because it should do."
The LTA was criticised for failing to capitalise on Murray's Wimbledon victory in 2013 with participation levels falling in the aftermath.
But LTA chief Downey said the coverage created by Britain's successful weekend in Belgium should help "encourage participation".

The 14-year-old from Blackpool disappeared on 1 November 2003. Her body has never been found.
Karen Downes said she is taking legal action over a 13-year gap in releasing CCTV images of the teenager's last day alive.
Lancashire Police has declined to comment.
She said the footage that detectives released in 2016, 13 years after she went missing, could have helped solve the case had it been available earlier.
"They had [the CCTV] for 13 years," said Mrs Downes. "It shows Charlene in the town that afternoon in the same clothes she disappeared in.
"If they'd have shown it before... who knows?
"We have suffered all these years not knowing where she is."
She said police "need teaching a lesson".
"It is not about the money. I want to force the police to do their job," she said.
"If I got money I would get something for Charlene like a memorial."
Charlene is shown in the CCTV with her sister Rebecca on Bank Hey Street walking towards the Coral Island amusement arcade.
She went home but returned to Blackpool town centre later that evening - the last time she was seen.
A judge cleared a man of Charlene's murder in 2008 after "grave doubts" were raised about evidence during his second trial. The jury in his first trial failed to reach a verdict.
In 2009, the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) said police evidence-gathering errors contributed to the retrial's collapse.
The IPCC found strategic and tactical failure in the management of the material and several officers were disciplined, one forced to resign in 2011.
But this resignation order was overturned by a 2012 Police Arbitration Tribunal. | The mother of missing teenager Charlene Downes said she is going to sue police over mishandling her murder case. | 40674872 | [

It also speaks of other human rights violations, including "violent house raids, torture and ill-treatment".
It says that the security forces are allegedly responsible for at least 46 deaths which occurred in protest-related violence.
The findings are based on interviews.
A statement released on Tuesday says that "in the absence of responses from the Venezuelan authorities to requests for access, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra'ad Al Hussein deployed a team of human rights officers to conduct remote monitoring of the human rights situation in the country ".
The UN human rights team conducted interviews remotely because its requests for access went unanswered by the Venezuelan authorities.
Witnesses told the UN that the Venezuelan security forces had fired tear gas and buckshot without warning.
"Security forces have reportedly also resorted to the use of deadly force against demonstrators," the statement reads.
"Since the wave of demonstrations began in April, there has been a clear pattern of excessive force used against protesters. Several thousand people have been arbitrarily detained, many reportedly subjected to ill-treatment and even torture, while several hundred have been brought before military rather than civilian courts," Mr Hussein said.
He pointed out that "some groups of demonstrators have also resorted to violence, with attacks reported against security officers".
The UN human rights team said that estimates suggested that more than 5,000 people had been arbitrarily detained between 1 April, when the protests began, and 31 July.
The high commissioner urged the Venezuelan authorities "to immediately end the excessive use of force against demonstrators, to halt arbitrary detentions and to release all those arbitrarily detained".
Shortly after the report was issued, Venezuela's Supreme Court ordered the arrest of opposition mayor Ramón Muchacho.
The court had sentenced him to 15 months in prison and barred him from office in the early hours of Tuesday.
The court said Ramón Muchacho had failed to prevent barricades from being erected during anti-government protests held in Chacao, the opposition stronghold he governs.
After a nine-hour debate, the Supreme Court found Mr Muchacho, 44, guilty of failing to enforce a court order on preventing the blocking of roads.
Chacao has been one of the neighbourhoods in the capital, Caracas, at the centre of anti-government protests that have swept through Venezuela in the past four months.
It is a gathering point for demonstrations and its roads are often blocked by "trancones", blockades organised by the opposition to show their rejection of the government.
On 24 May, after eight weeks of anti-government protests, the Supreme Court ordered Mr Muchacho and seven other mayors to prevent barricades being erected, and where roads had been blocked, to remove the obstacles.
The court warned that if the mayors did not follow the order, they could face between six and 15 months in jail.
Apart from Mr Muchacho, three other opposition mayors have also been found guilty for failing to prevent barricades from being erected. | The United Nations Human Rights Office has warned of "widespread and systematic use of excessive force" being used against protesters in Venezuela. | 40861095 | [

Between April and October 103 liner visits are scheduled to Guernsey, Alderney, Sark and Herm.
In 2011 there were 91 scheduled visits, with 29 being cancelled due to bad weather and itinerary changes.
Capt Peter Gill, Guernsey's harbour master, said: "It was a very poor year in weather terms and affected virtually every aspect of our activities."
He said: "It wasn't just the cruise liners, visiting yachts as well were significantly down on previous years, in fact last year was the worst since 1987."
Investigations into plans for a cruise liner berth off Guernsey, estimated to cost between £60m and £80m, are due to form part of the harbour master plan, which is due to be released this year.
Currently passengers are ferried between the cruise liners and Guernsey on tenders carried by the ships.
Capt Gill said: "In terms of a destination port in the UK, Guernsey is the most visited, it is the most popular... the cruise liner operators have made it quite clear to us they are very keen to come here." | Almost 150,000 cruise ship passengers are scheduled to visit the Bailiwick of Guernsey during 2013. | 21057319 | [

The discussion centred mainly on the gas market, energy security and the risks of having to rely on supplies from Russia in the distant future.
But, actually, the report says, the short-term risks in the gas market of things such as having to pay more for imports and security of supply are minimal.
The £500m is actually made up of technical factors involving the electricity market, specifically if the UK fails to negotiate continued membership of the Internal Energy Market (IEM).
That cost comes from things such as losing access to more efficient cross-border energy trading systems.
But the report is clear such costs could be avoided if the UK remained part of the IEM, as non-EU members such as Norway have managed.
The report is also concerned about the possibility of it becoming more expensive to finance big investment projects such as new power stations, but that is not part of the £500m.
And it mentions potential problems involving the UK finding "itself excluded from EU 'solidarity principles' in which European nations agree to supply to their neighbours in the event of a gas supply crisis".
It stresses the uncertainty surrounding the forecasts, but concludes: "The impact of Brexit on the UK energy system is very likely to be negative."
But it does not say at least £500m, it says up to £500m.
Reality Check verdict: There is considerable uncertainty about the figure and much of the effect could be avoided by staying in the IEM.

The 68-year-old Dutchman was appointed in March, when the Black Cats were one point above the relegation zone.
He guided them to safety and was due to leave the club in the summer, only to sign a new one-year contract.
Advocaat said: "I have made the decision to go after only eight games as I felt it was important to give everyone time to turn things around."
Sunderland chairman Ellis Short said: "I am truly saddened by Dick's decision, but I respect him for his honesty.

"It is also testament to his character that he has foregone any kind of a financial settlement, something which is very unusual in football."
Assistant head coach Zeljko Petrovic has also left the club.
Saturday's draw with West Ham left Sunderland without a win in their first eight league matches and looking for a sixth manager in four years.
Since Steve Bruce was sacked in November 2011, Martin O'Neill, Paolo di Canio, Gus Poyet and Advocaat have managed the club.
Advocaat's departure also follows a trend set by Di Canio and Poyet of managers arriving to save the Black Cats from the drop, only to depart in the next season.
He initially agreed to lead Sunderland only until the end of last season, shedding tears as their survival was secured with a 0-0 draw at Arsenal.
Advocaat said he would leave the club to fulfil a promise to his wife, but changed his mind and returned in June.
The former Netherlands, Russia and South Korea boss has seen his side win just once this season - against League Two Exeter in the League Cup.

The Warriors led 13-6 at the break, Zander Fagerson going over for a try with Duncan Weir and Leinster's Fergus McFadden kicking two penalties apiece.
Luke McGrath and Taqele Naiyaravoro swapped tries in the third quarter.
With winger Naiyaravoro sin-binned, Leinster edged ahead with a penalty try and McFadden landed a late penalty.
The visitors, boosted by six returning Scotland internationals and seeking a first away win over Leinster since 2011, broke the deadlock in the 13th minute, with a multi-phase attack that finished with the 19-year-old prop Fagerson muscling over from close range.
Weir's conversion was quickly followed by McFadden's first successful penalty.
A second right-sided kick from the winger closed the gap to one by the 21st minute, rewarding Aaron Dundon for a well-won ruck penalty and accurate line-out throw in the build-up.
Weir then punished Leinster for collapsing an advancing maul, punching over a fine 43-metre strike.
He repeated the trick from the opposite left wing as Mike McCarthy infringed at a maul six minutes before the interval.
Leinster missed a chance to close out the first half with a third penalty, McFadden wobbling an injury-time effort wide after Pat MacArthur saw yellow for a 'reckless' forearm-led tackle that ended Dundon's involvement in the game.
The home side made their numerical advantage count on the resumption.
Scrum-half McGrath's blindside switch led to Garry Ringrose racing up the right touchline and following a bout of forward pressure, McGrath stretched over for McFadden to convert.
Leinster were only level for six minutes, the Scots hitting back with a terrific spell of attacking and a power-packed finish to the right of the posts by big Fijian Naiyaravoro.
But the hosts took the lead for the first time through the penalty try.
Replacement Isaac Boss exploited a gap and Isa Nacewa's well-weighted kick set up a foot race between McFadden and Naiyaravoro. The latter was deemed to have deliberately slapped the ball over the end-line as the pair lunged for the ball.
After consulting with the TMO, referee Ian Davies awarded the penalty try and sin-binned the Fijian, with McFadden's conversion splitting the sides on the scoreboard.
Leo Cullen's men saw out the result with McFadden nailing his third penalty of the night.

The Euro 2012 co-hosts took the lead when Yarmolenko seized on goalkeeper Samir Handanovic's unconvincing punch.
Seleznyov slid in to convert the overlapping Artem Fedetskiy's cross after the break.
Josip Ilicic wasted a fine chance for Slovenia, but his side were fortunate not to fall further behind in the tie.
Seleznyov side-footed a tame shot against the post after Denys Garmash had directed a powerful header straight at Handanovic under little pressure.
Ukraine have lost in five previous qualifying play-offs for major tournaments - including a 3-2 aggregate reverse when they played Slovenia for a place at Euro 2000.
With former heavyweight boxing champion, now mayor of Kiev, Vitali Klitschko watching on in the stands, there seemed little chance of a repeat as Yarmolenko - the target of an unsuccessful bid by Premier League side Everton in August - and Yevhen Konoplyanka pulling the strings.
Despite a spell of late pressure, Slovenia, who picked up two of five yellow cards in a tetchy encounter, will have to show more adventure in the return in Maribor on Tuesday.

I obviously hope that I win the match but I know Liam pretty well and this is a big opportunity for him to go out there, give it a go and show everybody what he's got.
You want to be playing on the big courts against the best players, in front of a big crowd, and there's no pressure on him, so I'm expecting him to play good tennis.
And Liam won't be the only one who's nervous - before any of the Slams I feel the tension, and as the tournament goes on it calms down a little bit each day.
This will be my 11th Wimbledon and I would say it feels different to when I first played. Then there was no expectation and winning the first match was a good, positive start. Now, if I don't win the first match it's a disaster!
But I do feel good right now, I'm happy with the way I'm playing and practising and, yes, I'm ready.
With 15 British players involved in the singles competitions at Wimbledon this year, and the recent success in doubles for my brother Jamie and Dom Inglot, it does feel like there's a bit of a feelgood factor around British tennis at the moment.
Don't get me wrong, it's not perfect, but this tournament is a big chance for some of them to make their mark and you just hope they do themselves justice, because it's tough working your way up through the rankings.
I played a lot of Futures tournaments, below the main tour, when I was 15, 16, 17 years old, and then you come to somewhere like Wimbledon, in front of a huge crowd with a great atmosphere, and the next week you go back to playing the Futures where there can be 10 or 15 people watching.
It's a totally different feeling, a different atmosphere, and I think you need to take motivation from matches like these when you're back in the smaller events and say "that's where I want to be".
Find out how to get into tennis in our special guide.
Playing at this level, being around the top players, practising with them before the event, you learn huge amounts from that. More than you will from playing any Futures event in my opinion.
So you want them to enjoy the week but also perform, otherwise it feels like a wasted opportunity.
Hopefully everyone will enjoy the experience but fight as hard as they can for every single point, and I think there will be a few surprise performances this year from the British players.
It's three years since I last played at Wimbledon with Ivan Lendl on my coaching team, and I think we've both changed in that time.
I'm more grown up, more mature. I'm married and have a family now. Ivan's done more coaching with junior players and I'm sure that affects the way he sees things a bit too.
There's a huge difference between working with a player at the top of the game and then teenagers that you're trying to develop at a much slower rate. I'm sure that's altered the way that Ivan approaches his coaching.
We've certainly had an excellent week of practice since Queen's Club, which was a great way for Ivan to return, and it honestly hasn't felt strange having him back as part of the team again.
As the number two seed, we've known all week that I would play my opening match at Wimbledon on Tuesday, and that gives us consistency in terms of the schedule, as I know I'll play every two days.
However, that only helps if I get the job done - if I have long matches like I had at the start of the French Open, then having a couple of days off over the middle weekend can help with recovery a little bit.
My goal is definitely to try to avoid having those matches, which will hopefully set up another special couple of weeks.
Andy Murray was talking to BBC Sport's Piers Newbery.

Akin Koc, who has run Anatolian Sky in Solihull for 26 years, said terror attacks had had a "devastating effect" on the company.
He apologised to customers and agents for the disruption to any holidays.
The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) said it was helping about 1,200 holidaymakers following the collapse.

Turkey tourism: an industry in crisis
About 150 people were abroad when the company stopped trading on 1 July, with a further 460 bookings affecting 1,020 people.
Customers who are yet to travel, but have paid in full for flights and packages, can either go ahead with their holidays as planned or seek refunds, the CAA said.
Mr Koc said he was "very sad" to close the company, and called for more people to support tourism in Turkey.
He said: "It has become impossible to cope and sustain the business, particularly through recent attacks."

The 24-year-old Belgium-born midfielder has made just 23 Premier League starts since joining from Porto on a five-and-a-half-year contract in February 2016.
"Sometimes things just don't pan out as you hope," Hughes said.
"It has been a frustration for all parties involved. It's fair to say with Giannelli that things haven't quite worked out."
Imbula became Portuguese football's record signing when he joined Porto in a £15.1m deal from Marseille in July 2015.
"He hasn't quite adjusted to the Premier League," added Hughes.
"If there is interest in him then we would consider that. We haven't had any interest, in fairness, but we would look at things if the right offer came in." | Stoke City's £18.3m record signing Giannelli Imbula could leave the club this summer, manager Mark Hughes says. | 39894503 | [

Foreign investors have been blamed for driving up the cost of real estate in Toronto and Vancouver.
Hurt by failing oil prices, Canada's ailing economy has become a major issue as the country elects new leadership.
Mr Harper said that about 15% of condos in Vancouver aren't being lived in.
"If such foreign, non-resident buyers are artificially driving up the cost of real estate and Canadian families are shut out of the market, that is a matter we can and should do something about," said Mr Harper said, who was campaigning in Vancouver on Wednesday.
While home prices in the country's interior have fallen, prices have remained high in Toronto and Vancouver.
The average price of a detached home in Vancouver - the country's most expensive market - is more than $1 million (£640,000).
Harper's Conservative Party said it was looking into restrictions on foreign homeownership that have been put in place by other western countries.
Australia limits the ability of foreign buyers to purchase existing homes for investment, and only allow foreign investment resulting in new home construction.
If necessary, Mr Harper said the Conservative government will take action in coordination with the provinces to make sure foreign non-resident investment "supports the availability and affordability of homes for Canadians."
His administration also announced that Canadians will now be permitted to withdraw $35,000 (£17,241) instead of $25,000 (£12,315) from retirement accounts to purchase their first homes. | Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper has announced plans to track foreign homeownership and raised the possibility of eventually enacting limits on buying. | 33896209 | [

The probe is due to scream past the dwarf world on 14 July at almost 14km/s and at an altitude of just 12,500km.
New Horizons' 23-second thruster burn will adjust very slightly its speed and arrival time.
The spacecraft needs to take a very calculated path past Pluto and its moons, to ensure its instruments point where they are supposed to on the 14th.
Had the thruster burn not been executed, the US space agency (Nasa) probe would have arrived 20 seconds late and 184km off from the point where mission controllers wanted it to be.
If something concerning is seen in the path such as icy debris, a further manoeuvre could still be implemented.
Shortly, New Horizons' Mission Operations Center, which is based at Johns Hopkins University, will upload the commands that will drive the observation sequence during the flyby.
In the meantime, the spacecraft continues to return pictures and other data on approach to Pluto, even though the dwarf is still currently only a very small feature in the distance.
Its latest detection is of frozen methane on the little planet's surface.
Earth-based telescopes first saw this back in the 1970s, but New Horizons can now confirm the hydrocarbon's presence.
Almost daily, new pictures from the probe's LORRI camera are uploaded on to a public website.
"We can see very large regional differences in brightness across the planet,” said principal investigator Alan Stern from the Southwest Research Institute.
"We see a polar cap. In fact, on Pluto's moon Charon, we see an anti-polar cap - a dark cap, a dark pole, which is very unusual and we don’t understand it.
"But we’re going to get a lot closer, and we're going to see a lot better.
"We’ll get spectroscopy, which will allow us to fingerprint whether the composition is different there. And soon we’ll be able to start making atmospheric studies [of Pluto] and do some of the other things we came to do."
On flyby day itself, no pictures will come back to Earth, because New Horizons will be so busy gathering data.
The first images are expected on Wednesday, 15 July.
"We’ll eventually get to a resolution of 80m per pixel with LORRI," explained Prof Stern.
"So, if you were to fly over a typical city here on Earth, at the same altitude and looked with LORRI, you could spot major parks, you could spot runways; you could spot a football stadium and see the field inside. Things like that; it's going to be pretty incredible resolution."
As of 1 July, New Horizons was 4.7 billion km from Earth and 14.9 million km from Pluto.
The travel time of a radio signal between New Horizons and Nasa's antenna network is about 4.5 hours.

Comrade Akaash's statement comes after the rebels were blamed for Friday's train crash which left 148 people dead.
Police say Maoist rebels sabotaged the track, causing the derailment of the Calcutta-Mumbai express in West Bengal.
Maoists denied the charge. But Comrade Akaash also said they would investigate whether any rebels were involved.
Railway officials in eastern India have cancelled night trains in Maoist-affected areas after Friday's incident.
Comrade Akaash told the BBC that they were "appealing" to the railways to run trains through rebel strongholds even during the night.

"We are promising total security to all trains. We will not allow anyone to attack any train anywhere in the country and those trying to do it will face stern punishment," he said.
The railways have not reacted to the statement.
Police say they have "definite evidence" that a local rebel Maoist militia were behind the disaster - they have named two militia leaders as the prime suspects.
One of the suspects, Umakanta Mahato, was arrested last June and charged with sedition and waging war against the state.
But he was released on bail in December, and the police did not contest the bail, court records say.
Independent lawyers are asking why the police did not contest the bail plea of a senior Maoist militia leader.
Railway officials in eastern India have cancelled night trains in Maoist-affected areas after Friday's incident.
The restrictions would be in place until 0500 [2330GMT] on 3 June, the company said.
Report said other services were being rescheduled to ensure they travelled through Maoist areas of eastern India in daylight.

The move showed the UK has no "real influence" over world events, Russia's foreign ministry said.
Mr Johnson said events in Syria had "changed the situation fundamentally" and he would go to G7 talks instead.
The UK deplored "Russia's continued defence of the Assad regime even after the chemical weapons attack on innocent civilians," he added.
The foreign secretary said: "We call on Russia to do everything possible to bring about a political settlement in Syria and work with the rest of the international community to ensure that the shocking events of the last week are never repeated."
Rather than travelling to Moscow to meet Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov, he will now be travelling to Lucca, in Italy, for a G7 meeting, where he will call for Russian President Vladimir Putin to pull his troops from Syria.
His Russian visit, which would have been the first by a UK foreign secretary in five years, was cancelled after discussions with the US, which is sending Secretary of State Rex Tillerson to Moscow to deliver a "clear and co-ordinated" message to the Kremlin.
In a statement, the Russian foreign ministry said: "During Johnson's visit to Moscow there were plans to hold open and exhaustive talks on the entire spectrum of international problems, and also to discuss the state of Russo-British relations, which have, in essence, been forced into a dead end by the UK.
"The decision to call off Johnson's visit to Moscow confirms once again doubts in the presence of added value in speaking to the UK, which does not have its own position on the majority of present-day issues, nor does it have real influence on the course of international affairs, as it remains 'in the shadow' of its strategic partners.
"We do not feel that we need dialogue with London any more than it does."
The Russian statement added that Mr Johnson's plan to "discuss Russian support for the Assad regime" with G7 partners showed a "fundamental misunderstanding or ignorance of what is happening in Syria, Russia's efforts to settle this crisis, and the purpose of diplomacy in general".
Russia and Iran have condemned US air strikes against Syria as a violation of international law.
The SNP's Foreign Affairs spokesman Alex Salmond joined in with the criticism of the foreign secretary on the BBC's Andrew Marr show, saying: "Boris Johnson just looks daft.
"What is the argument for not going ahead with a visit?
"Rex Tillerson is going on Wednesday so it can't be that we have moved to a Cold War position of no talking whatsoever.
"And the idea that the foreign secretary can't be trusted because he might pursue his own line or have an independent thought or cross over what the Americans might say makes him look like some kind of 'mini-me' to the USA and that's not a position that any foreign secretary would want to be in."
Labour's shadow chancellor John McDonnell told Sky News the foreign secretary "should be in Moscow now… saying to the Russians just how appalling the situation is and the role they should play".
He added: "We've got to be frank with them and we shouldn't just allow the Americans to go off and do that. We should be doing that ourselves."
Liberal Democrat leader Tim Farron claimed Mr Johnson was considered a diplomatic liability.
"Boris has revealed himself to be a poodle of Washington, having his diary managed from across the pond," said Mr Farron.
"It is pretty shameful when even Trump judges you to be a buffoon."
A government source accused Mr Johnson's critics of playing politics.
"It's a shame that some like Farron, Salmond and McDonnell put polls and politics above sorting out a civil war - it's very sad and shows how desperate they are," they said.
BBC Political Correspondent Ben Wright said the criticism would not "unduly bother" Mr Johnson, who had spent the weekend calling counterparts, including the Germans. French and Italians, ahead of the G7 meeting. The foreign secretary would also be speaking to Mr Tillerson again, ahead of the US Secretary of State's visit to Moscow to agree a joint position on Syria.
Mr Johnson's position was defended by International Development Secretary Priti Patel, who said the UK was working with the US and international partners on a co-ordinated response in the wake of US missile attacks on Syria.
She told the BBC's Andrew Marr show: "This isn't just about one voice.
"This is about the international community coming together and our foreign secretary is working with his American counterpart as that is the right thing to do."
In January, Mr Johnson said Syrian President Bashar al-Assad should be allowed to run for election to remain in power and warned that Britain may have to "think afresh" about how to handle the crisis after failing to live up to its long-held position that the dictator must go.
But sources insisted he has always believed Assad cannot remain in power.
It comes as UK Defence Secretary Sir Michael Fallon said Russia was to blame for "every civilian death" in the chemical weapons attack last week in Syria.
Sir Michael, writing in the Sunday Times, said the Kremlin was responsible "by proxy" as the "principal backer" of the Assad regime. | Russia has criticised Boris Johnson's decision to scrap a planned trip to Moscow after discussions with the US. | 39544432 | [

Many wept as they prayed for the pope outside the city's main cathedral.
The vigil was followed by a Sunday morning Mass, with the dead pope's body sat in the papal chair dressed in ceremonial robes.
He died at the age of 88 on Saturday, after reportedly suffering from cancer. He led the Church for four decades.
Coptic Christians make up 10% of Egypt's population of 80 million, making them the Middle East's largest Christian minority.
After attacks on Coptic Christians in recent years, Pope Shenouda had urged officials to do more to address the community's concerns.
A crowd of mourners estimated to be larger than 100,000, spent the night outside St Mark's Cathedral, many weeping as they prayed for the pope.
Thousands queued to see Pope Shenouda, whose body was placed in a coffin before being seated on a ceremonial throne wearing embroidered vestments and a golden mitre, and holding a gold-topped staff.
The government has given Coptic Christians three days off work to prepare for his funeral.
The BBC's Jon Leyne, in Cairo, says there is no timetable yet for the selection of his successor, who will be elected by a conclave of senior bishops.
Tributes have come in from around the world, with Roman Catholic Pope Benedict XVI offering prayers and US President Barack Obama praising Pope Shenouda as an "advocate for tolerance and religious dialogue".
Egypt's military rulers expressed the hope on their Facebook page that his wish of "preserving the unity of Egypt and the unity of its social fabric" would be achieved.
And a senior Muslim cleric, the Grand Imam of the prestigious al-Azhar university, Ahmed al-Tayeb, expressed sorrow and said he "greatly remembers his vision towards Jerusalem and its history".
Pope Shenouda had returned recently to Egypt after seeking treatment abroad.
Our correspondent says he sought to protect his Christian community's position within the Muslim majority by striking a conservative tone and lending tacit support to President Mubarak's rule.
Whoever succeeds him now faces the task of reassuring the Coptic community as the Islamists of the Muslim Brotherhood look on the verge of sharing power in Egypt for the first time, our correspondent says. | Tens of thousands of Egyptian Coptic Christians have held an overnight vigil in Cairo to mourn the death of their spiritual leader, Pope Shenouda III. | 17420084 | [

Issued by Southampton magistrates, it states he must "wear sufficient clothing in public to at least cover his genitalia and buttocks".
The order is effective for all of England and Wales until 10 May.
If Mr Gough, 53, of Eastleigh, Hampshire, contravenes it, he could be imprisoned again.
Eastleigh Borough Council and Hampshire Constabulary jointly applied for the order.
They said it was because Mr Gough had caused "much offence nationwide" and they also wanted to clarify the legal position.
Mr Gough has served several prison terms for refusing to get dressed in public places, including court rooms.
He was freed on bail on 8 February after a charge of outraging public decency in Oxfordshire in December was dropped.
Roger Trencher, force solicitor, said Mr Gough had also "used a considerable amount of police time in England, Wales and Scotland".
He said: "This is because he insists on rambling naked.
"He refuses to be deterred by the criminal law. He believes the law is uncertain on the issue of public nudity.
"We hoped the court would agree that, because of the public offence that has been caused and the police time used, it is in the public interest that Mr Gough be required to wear clothing sufficient to prevent the offence.
"We sought an order for him to wear sufficient clothing in public to at least cover his genitalia and buttocks.
"Any breach of the order could result in a prison sentence for Mr Gough." | A man known as "the naked rambler" has been given an interim Anti-social Behaviour Order (Asbo) banning him from going nude in public places. | 21620464 | [

The move is part of national fire service reforms unveiled by Home Secretary Theresa May last week.
Sussex PCC Katy Bourne said emergency services would have an increased duty to collaborate under the new bill.
But West Sussex County Council (WSCC) said it already had an excellent model.
East Sussex's fire authority said it would co-operate with the PCC but it believed collaboration could be achieved without elaborate structural change.
Ms Bourne said she had written to WSCC leader Louise Goldsmith and Phil Howson, East Sussex Fire Authority chairman, to request they begin to look at the feasibility of bringing both fire services under her authority.
"Just as we have one police force that effectively manages the county, we need to understand if one fire service not two could achieve the same," she said.
Ms Bourne's letter met with cross-party opposition from WSCC.
And Ms Goldsmith also invited the home secretary to visit West Sussex and see an alternative to the government's preferred plan.
Ms Goldsmith said West Sussex fire service was already integrated within the council and served communities.
She added last year's Shoreham air disaster showed how West Sussex emergency services already worked together.
East Sussex Fire Authority said it was willing to co-operate with the PCC to determine whether proposals could improve delivery of services and create efficiencies.
In a statement, it added: "[The fire authority] believes whilst close collaboration between the emergency services is essential, it can be achieved without elaborate structural change.
"It is also the fire authority's considered view that it is more accountable to the community it serves because its members are elected councillors." | Plans set out by the Sussex police and crime commissioner (PCC) to take responsibility for fire services in East and West Sussex - and potentially merge them - have met with opposition. | 36423607 | [

The All Blacks were five points behind at half-time with a man in the sin-bin as four penalties from Handre Pollard cancelled out Jerome Kaino's early try.
A Dan Carter drop-goal and a Beauden Barrett try put the champions ahead.
South Africa replied with two penalties but a Carter effort in between secured victory despite ferocious Bok defence.
It was seldom pretty but once again in this World Cup there was a gripping finale, the All Blacks holding that two-point lead for the last 12 minutes as their opponents finally tired.
No team has ever retained the Webb Ellis trophy, but the All Blacks will be favourites to do so when they meet either Australia or Argentina next Saturday after finding their way through a brutal encounter.
This was nothing like the free-flowing attacking rugby that had eviscerated France in the quarter-finals, but in its own way it was just as admirable, as South Africa refused to buckle despite having just 43% possession.
The game swung in the 20 minutes after half-time, New Zealand beginning that period five points down and with Kaino off the pitch, but ending it five points up and with Springbok wing Bryan Habana in the sin-bin instead.
And despite replacement Pat Lambie cutting the lead to less than a score, the vast experience of the champions saw them through.
After Pollard's early penalty, the All Blacks struck back when Kaino thundered through De Jager down the right and touched down one-handed in the corner, but two more pin-point penalties from Pollard gave his side a two-point lead with 20 minutes gone.
South Africa were having significant success at the breakdown, New Zealand shipping six penalties in short order, and the world champions looked instead for territory, kicking behind the defence and into the corners.
Carter hit the post with a long-range penalty, and despite his side dominating possession and territory the Springbok defensive wall continued to hold.
When South Africa finally made it out of their half, they struck again. Kaino was sin-binned for kicking the ball away and Pollard stroked over his fourth penalty to make it 12-7 at the interval, the green-shirted supporters in the capacity crowd starting to believe that the upset was on.
The Springboks had not lost to the All Blacks in 21 Tests when leading or level at half-time, but despite being a man down New Zealand closed the gap to two points as a spell of carefully worked territory was capped with a Carter drop-goal.
Schalk Burger then lost the ball metres from his own line, the All Blacks went right and drove on through their forwards before Ma'a Nonu sent replacement Barrett diving into the corner.
With Habana sin-binned for knocking the ball from scrum-half Aaron Smith's hands and Carter bending over the conversion for 17-12, the match appeared to have turned.
Pollard and Carter exchanged penalties, and with replacements pouring on to the pitch and the rain hammering down the two heavyweights went toe to toe.
Pat Lambie came on for Pollard to make it 20-18 with 10 minutes to go, and an air of desperation was apparent in both sides.
Carter sprinted half the length of the pitch to clear from De Allende, South Africa failed to capitalise from an attacking line-out and New Zealand escaped into opposition territory as the seconds crawled by, running the clock down with a series of drives to celebrate with exhaustion at the end.
Ben Smith was faultless under the high ball and Dan Carter's decision-making once again peerless.
However, for his muscular, repeated carrying in a relentlessly physical match and the superb run and timing of pass for Beauden Barrettt's critical second-half try, Ma'a Nonu deserves the honour.
New Zealand coach Steve Hansen: "It was always going to be close, they're a great side and they showed that again. I was really proud of our guys, they kept their composure.
"We just needed to come out for the second half and start taking the game to them rather than waiting for them to take it to us. We talked about it at half-time. We talked about keeping composure and talked about winning the first 10 minutes."
South Africa coach Heyneke Meyer: "Our discipline in the second half was just not good enough. They coped better with the weather in the second half. Discipline was the most important thing, especially in these rainy conditions.
"We wanted to make our country proud but we didn't. We should have pulled this win through but all credit to the All Blacks, they are a quality side."

Russian President Vladimir Putin said the Su-24 was hit by air-to-air missiles fired by Turkish F-16s while it was flying over Syrian territory.
But Turkish military officials said the plane was engaged after being warned that it was violating Turkish airspace.
Mr Putin described the incident as a "stab in the back" committed by "accomplices of terrorists".
The crew ejected before the jet crashed in Latakia province, but Syrian rebels said at least one was dead.
It is the first time a Russian aircraft has crashed in Syria since Moscow launched air strikes against opponents of President Bashar al-Assad in late September.

The Nato military alliance, to which Turkey belongs, said it was following the situation "closely" and was in contact with the Turkish authorities. There will be an "informational meeting" of ambassadors in Brussels at 16:00 GMT.
At a meeting with King Abdullah II of Jordan in Sochi, Russia's president confirmed that the Su-24 had been shot down over Syrian territory, 1km (0.6 miles) from the Turkish border, by an air-to-air missile from a Turkish F-16 jet.
It crashed in Syrian territory 4km (2.5 miles) from the border, he added.
"This goes beyond the normal struggle against terrorism. This was a stab in the back by the accomplices of terrorists," Mr Putin stated, an apparent reference to Turkey's support for Syrian rebel groups.
"Our pilots and our plane did not in any way threaten Turkey. It is quite clear," he added.
"They were carrying out an operation against [Islamic State militants] in the mountains of northern Latakia, where militants who originate from Russian territory are concentrated. So they were carrying the key task of preventative attacks against those who could return to Russia at any time."
This is exactly the kind of incident that many have feared since Russia launched its air operations in Syria. The dangers of operating near to the Turkish border have been all too apparent. Turkish planes have already shot down at least one Syrian air force jet and possibly a helicopter as well.
Russia insists that its warplane did not violate Turkish air space. So, was the Russian pilot's navigation wrong? Questions will also be asked about the readiness of the Turks to open fire.
It suggests that the much discussed arrangements to avoid incidents between warplanes over Syria are inadequate. The Turkish authorities will no doubt claim that such arrangements do not cover the approaches to their own airspace where tried and tested procedures should apply.
There are conflicting reports as to whether it was ground fire or Turkish jets that brought down the Russian plane. Air operations in the crowded skies over Syria just got a good deal more complicated. The only mitigating factor is that initial reports suggest that two parachutes were seen so the Russian crew at least got out of their stricken aircraft. Expect diplomatic fireworks.
However, the Turkish military said two F-16s on patrol had fired on an unidentified aircraft at 09:24 (07:24 GMT) after warning it 10 times over five minutes about violating Turkish airspace over the town of Yayladagi, in Hatay province.
It noted that the F-16s had intervened "in accordance with the rules of engagement", which were changed after Syria shot down a Turkish plane in 2012.
The UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the jet had crashed in the mountainous Jabal Turkmen area of Latakia, where air strikes and fighting between rebels and Syrian government forces had been reported earlier on Tuesday.
The Syrian Observatory also reported that a Russian military helicopter had been forced to make an emergency landing after being hit by rebel fire near the crash site.
A spokesman for a rebel group operating in the area, the 10th Brigade of the Coast, told the Associated Press that the jet's crew had tried to parachute into government-held territory, but that they came under fire from members of the group.
One of them was dead when he landed on the ground, he added. The fate of the second was not immediately known.
A video was posted online showing gunmen standing around a man in a flight suit who was immobile on the ground, either badly wounded or dead.
Russian aircraft have flown hundreds of sorties over northern Syria since September. Moscow says they have targeted only "terrorists", but activists say its strikes have mainly hit Western-backed rebel groups.
Turkey, a vehement opponent of Syria's president, has warned against violations of its airspace by Russian and Syrian aircraft.
Last month, Ankara said Turkish F-16s had intercepted a Russian jet that crossed its border and two Turkish jets had been harassed by an unidentified Mig-29.
The Turkish foreign ministry also summoned the Russian ambassador last week to warn him that there would be "serious consequences" if the Russian air force did not immediately stop bombing "civilian Turkmen villages" in the Bayir Bucak area, near Tuesday's crash site.
In a separate development on Tuesday, three Russian journalists were lightly wounded on Monday while driving in a convoy towards the Syrian government army frontline near Dagmashliya, in north-western Syria. Their vehicles came under fire, apparently from TOW anti-tank missiles.
Russian media named them as Tass correspondent Alexander Yelistratov, Russia Today Arabic Service TV correspondent Sargon Khadaya and RT English correspondent Roman Kosarev. | Turkish warplanes have shot down a Russian military aircraft on the border with Syria. | 34907983 | [

Monitor is looking into the financial sustainability of Southend University Hospital Foundation Trust "on behalf of patients", the NHS regulator said.
Finances became a concern when a planned £7.8m deficit grew, for which Monitor could see no recovery plan.
The hospital blamed the larger-than-anticipated deficit on growth in demand and increased staff recruitment.
Hospital chairman Alan Tobias OBE, said: "The overspend is a result of vital investment in services and more staff to ensure high standards of patient care as well as the rise in attendances.
"We welcome this review to clearly demonstrate to Monitor - as well as patients and stakeholders - our future financial plans are both robust and sustainable."
The hospital has pledged to cut the deficit while maintaining "high quality care for local people" and said it was committed to returning to a surplus within three years.
Monitor said its investigation will look into the state of the hospital trust's finances, assess the strength of its financial management and explore ways of improving its sustainability, on behalf of patients across the region.
The investigation will also examine how the trust works with other local health and care organisations to respond to the financial challenges it faces.
Katherine Cawley, regional director at Monitor, said: "People are relying on Southend to provide them with quality healthcare now and in the future, and we are concerned that this may be at risk because of the trust's poor financial performance.
"We have launched this investigation to find out more about the financial situation at the trust and to establish what can be done to improve things." | A £9.8m deficit recorded for 2014/15 at an Essex hospital is to be investigated by a health service watchdog. | 32979370 | [

It means the number of nursing homes and nursing beds has fallen for the first time in five years.
A total of 73 homes cancelled their registration in the first six months of 2016, the Care Quality Commission said, partly due to recruiting problems.
The Department of Health said nurse training places were being increased.
In the year 2015-2016, the number of nursing homes in England fell from 4,697 to 4,633 and the number of their beds reduced from 224,674 to 224,026, reversing the increase seen over the previous five years.
And 73 homes cancelled the element of their registration that is required to operate as a nursing home in the first half of 2016, compared with 72 in the whole of 2015.
The BBC has produced an online guide to the system which shows how it works and how much care costs wherever you live in the UK.
You stay in your own home while getting help with everyday tasks such as washing, dressing and eating.

TBC pay for their own care
Savings, investments and income are assessed, along with the value of your home - unless you or a close relative live there.
Andrea Sutcliffe, chief inspector of adult social care at the CQC, told BBC Radio 4's You and Yours programme, said: "One of the fundamental reasons is that we are seeing that homes are having difficulty recruiting and retaining nurses.
"There are about 47,000 nurses working in adult social care. There is about a 9% vacancy rate, which will mean they are depending on agency nurses. And over the last year a third of nurses left their job.
"So, we're having difficulty recruiting them and then we are having difficulty retaining them, and that will have a direct impact on the quality of care that people are receiving."
The regulator changed the way it carried out inspections in 2014, and care homes are now judged on whether they are 'safe, effective, caring, responsive, and well-led.
The CQC said: "The quality of nursing home care continues to be rated lower than other adult social care services."
It said 40% are currently rated as either "requiring improvement" or "inadequate", with 60% rated "good" and 1% "outstanding".
But Frank Ursell, of the Registered Nursing Home Association, is predicting the number of closures will get worse.
"[This] ought to be concerning because the demography is telling us we have got an ageing population," he said.
"We've never had any control over the supply of nurses. so we've always had to rely upon the supply of nurses that are trained by the NHS.
"If the number of nurses they're training isn't sufficient to meet both the health and social care needs then we are going to have a problem. "
The Department of Health said it was funding a £40m leadership programme to create more senior nurses, as well as undergraduate nurse apprentices and student nurse placements in care homes.
But, many home owners cannot wait that long, with a range of factors - including reduced CQC ratings -putting potential residents off, and making the business unsustainable.
Home owner Andrew Uter recently shut his nursing home in Bath after 32 years.
He said: "We decided to close our home for a variety of reasons. I think one of the main reasons homes are closing nowadays is due to staffing difficulties, but also to some extent regulatory difficulties and difficulties with funding.
"The struggle over the last few years with those elements has become so much that we felt it better for our size, a smaller more intimate home, to close and to move on.'
'First of all we recruited through an agency from Spain, but in the end we had to go further afield and we went to agencies in Portugal. We also tried to recruit from India and the Philippines."
Often however, candidates would get a better offer elsewhere and not accept the job.
Mr Uter's nursing home was rated as "requiring improvement" and then "inadequate", and he says being told to roster on four nurses overnight was "the straw that broke the camel's back".
Agency rates are higher than staff rates. An agency nurse might typically get £22 an hour, the agency fee is £28 and so the nursing home would be paying a total of £50 per hour.
The pressure on the sector has seen a number of key players reducing or cutting their nursing beds.
HC-1 the third largest care home company in the UK say nursing shortages have been a contributing factor in the fate of 12 of their homes which they have either closed or turned into residential homes.
Anchor, the not-for-profit operator said it has pulled out of running nursing homes altogether to focus on retirement housing, assisted living and residential care.
Avery Healthcare at the more luxury end of the market has reduced its 3,000 nursing beds by about 20% with more reductions expected.
And Four Seasons Care, which is the UK's biggest provider, needs 4,000 nurses on its books, but it is currently 700 nurses short.
Health Education England recently announced a new Nursing Associate role, and some care providers are dealing with the nursing shortage by starting their own training schemes to improve senior care workers' skills.
Funding remains a key problem for nursing homes owners.
The Department of Health has recently raised the NHS-funded Nursing Care Rate in England.
It is a fee paid to care homes looking after people receiving nursing care. The rate rose from £112 per week to £156.
Many care providers say that's about half what it costs to pay nurses to provide nursing care. | Nursing homes are closing at the rate of at least one per week in England, due mainly to a shortage of nurses, official figures suggest. | 37496349 | [

Former Dons midfielder Sheerin, 39, has been player-manager at the Red Lichties since 2010 and replaces Neil Cooper at Pittodrie.
Arbroath were relegated to Scottish League Two after finishing season 2013-14 bottom of League One.
Aberdeen chief executive Duncan Fraser said boss Derek McInnes chose Sheerin after "a comprehensive process".
Speaking on the club's website, Fraser added: "Despite wishing to retain Paul's services, Arbroath chairman John Christison was good to deal with and completely appreciated Paul's desire to come back to Aberdeen."
Sheerin played for several Scottish clubs and also featured for Östersunds in Sweden before moving into coaching. He won a Scotland Under-21 cap in in the mid-1990s.
Sheerin guided the Arbroath to their first national trophy in their history by winning the Scottish Third Division title and promotion in 2011. | Paul Sheerin has left his post as Arbroath manager to become Under-20s coach at Aberdeen. | 27838706 | [

Ayla Ellison, of Ulverston, Cumbria, suffered severe brain damage following a "traumatic" birth at Furness General Hospital, Barrow, in April 2007.
In 2012, Morecambe Bay NHS Foundation Trust admitted staff negligence.
At London's High Court earlier it was ruled the trust will pay a tax-free sum every year for the rest of Ayla's life.
Mr Justice Warby ruled the organisation must pay an index-linked amount starting at £225,000 and rising to £290,000 when she turns 18.
While admitting it was at fault, the trust had disputed the value of the claim for damages. It has been providing financial assistance to the family since 2012.
Ayla, now eight, is totally immobile and dependent on being fed through a tube.
The court was told she is at constant risk of hypothermia as she cannot control her body temperature.
Despite her immobility, she suffers muscle spasms that leave her "screaming inconsolably at the top of her voice for hours".
Painkillers do not stop the pain, which can only be quelled by immersion in a hydrotherapy pool.
Ayla's father now works in London and the settlement includes £1.6m to buy a family home in Richmond. Further money will be needed to adapt it to Ayla's needs and install a hydrotherapy pool.
The judge awarded a £295,000 lump sum for Ayla's pain, suffering and disability and he paid tribute to her parents for the "calm and intelligent way" they had dealt with the tragedy.
Trust medical director David Walker said: "We are very sorry for the harm caused to Ayla and the distress caused to her family as a result of the issues arising from her birth.
"The injuries she suffered are very severe and a tragedy for her and her family. Her parents have had to cope with extraordinary pressures in looking after her." | A girl left disabled after being starved of oxygen at birth has been awarded a multimillion-pound compensation package. | 31522585 | [

Wayne Maycock, Paul Bromwich and Admi Headley were last seen at HMP Leyhill at about 16:45 GMT on Sunday.
Avon and Somerset Police has appealed for anyone who sees them, or knows of their whereabouts, to make contact.
HMP Leyhill in South Gloucestershire is the only minimum-security prison in the South West.
Headley was sentenced in 2006 for rape and robbery, Maycock was jailed in the same year for GBH, while Bromwich was sentenced in 2001 for rape.
Earlier, the police force suggested all three were convicted of rape but this information was later amended.
A Prison Service spokesperson said: "Public protection is our top priority. We take absconds from custody extremely seriously. We are working closely with the police and are urgently investigating this incident."
According to Avon and Somerset Police:
Leyhill, near Wotton-under-Edge, is a category D prison housing more than 500 inmates, including some on life sentences. | Two convicted rapists and a man convicted of assault - all considered to be a "risk to the public" - have absconded from an open prison. | 37972178 | [

Valery Gergiev, a supporter of Russia's President Vladimir Putin, conducted the Mariinsky Symphony Orchestra, from St Petersburg, at Palmyra's Roman Theatre.
Last July, IS posted footage online showing some of its fighters carrying out killings in the ancient theatre.
Syrian forces, backed by Russian air strikes, retook the historic site.
Palmyra in pictures
Mr Gergiev led the orchestra through pieces by Johann Sebastian Bach, Sergei Prokofiev and Rodion Shchedrin, in front of a crowd of Russian soldiers, government ministers and journalists.
Pictures of the concert, broadcast on Russian state television, were occasionally interrupted by footage of military action - showing Russian military backing for Syrian government forces as they liberated Palmyra from IS militants.
Mr Gergiev was until recently principal conductor of the London Symphony Orchestra and is music director of the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra.
In 2014, he backed Mr Putin over the annexation of the Crimea from Ukraine. In 2008, he performed in the capital of South Ossetia when Russia and Georgia were fighting over the territory.
The maestro described the concert as a protest against the barbarism and violence exhibited by Islamic State militants who had used the city's Roman amphitheatre to execute prisoners.
The Russian president also addressed the audience, by video link from his Black Sea residence in Sochi.
He called terrorism a contagion of which the world needed to rid itself, and said the fact the concert was taking place at all was "surprising".
"Today's action involved major inconvenience and dangers for everyone, being in a country at war close to where hostilities are still ongoing. That has demanded great strength and personal courage from you all," he said.
However, UK Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond said the concert was "a tasteless attempt to distract attention from the continued suffering of millions of Syrians. It shows that there are no depths to which the regime will not sink".
This is about more than just music.
By organising a concert in the ruins of Palmyra, Russia wants the world to see that it is making a positive contribution in Syria: bringing peace and stability to the country, and, in the case of Palmyra, saving a Unesco heritage site.
Moscow will be hoping that images of its classical musicians in Syria will reinforce the message that Russia is a force for good.
Such a musical message will be well received back home. For months now, Russian TV has been assuring viewers Russia's military intervention in Syria has benefited the world by taking on international terrorism.
But Western officials remain suspicious of Russia's intentions. Moscow has faced accusations that it has not done enough to rein in Syrian government forces. The Russians deny that and accuse America of not using its influence with the Syrian opposition to halt the fighting.
One of the soloists at the concert was cellist Sergei Roldugin, a friend of Putin's, who was recently named as the owner of offshore companies in the so-called Panama Papers. He denies all wrongdoing.
Islamic State destroyed a number of monuments during its 10-month occupation of Palmyra and its associated Unesco World Heritage site.
Two 2,000-year-old temples, an arch and funerary towers were left in ruins.
The jihadist group, which has also demolished several pre-Islamic sites in neighbouring Iraq, believes that such structures are idolatrous.
While some treasured monuments were destroyed, much of the historic site was left undamaged.
It is not the first time Mr Gergiev has performed in a war-torn city.
In August 2008, the native Ossetian conductor took the Mariinsky Theatre Symphony Orchestra to the ruins of Tskhinvali in the separatist Georgian region of South Ossetia, heavily damaged in the short Russian-Georgian war that year.
Mr Gergiev also conducted a charity concert in Tokyo for victims of the Fukushima nuclear disaster in 2012, and he led a charity concert tour to raise funds for victims of Russia's Beslan school massacre in 2004. | A renowned Russian conductor has led a concert in the ruins of Palmyra in Syria, which were recaptured from the so-called Islamic State (IS) in March. | 36211449 | [

Witnesses told officers they heard a gun being fired near Anfield Road Primary School at about 09:00 GMT.
Pupils and staff there and at the nearby All Saints Catholic Primary School have been ordered to stay indoors while police investigate.
Ch Supt Mark Harrison said it "beggars belief" it would happen at a school.
Members of the public told police the shot was fired at a dark coloured car by a white man in a grey hooded top who was on foot.
A Merseyside Police spokeswoman said local hospitals had been checked and "no-one has sought medical attention for injuries caused by a firearm".
She said officers were making house-to-house inquiries and studying CCTV footage of the area.
Ch Supt Harrison said the attack "appears to be targeted" and was particularly worrying as "a child could have been seriously injured or worse".
He said police wanted to hear from those inside the car "so we know they are safe".
Anfield Road Primary School's headteacher Clair Drew-Williams said her pupils were "safe and unaware of the incident".
"The site was not evacuated, the school day is continuing as normal and a trip for some pupils took place as planned," she said. | A shot was reportedly fired at a car outside a primary school in Liverpool as parents were taking their children inside, police have said. | 34911128 | [

But Ofsted chief Sir Michael Wilshaw says the process to close such schools is "inadequate".
Where there is such "illegal activity", he says, the "full force of the law" should be brought to bear.
Sir Michael has written to the education secretary to say 15 such schools have been found and they should be "registered or closed down".
He says there are "serious concerns" about the safety of children being taught in these "so-called schools".
In response, Education Secretary Nicky Morgan says the government has taken "robust steps to tackle unregistered schools and improve safeguarding".
"However we agree with Sir Michael that more needs to be done."
As such Mrs Morgan says there are plans for "further powers to regulate settings which teach children intensively and to intervene and impose sanctions where there are safety or welfare concerns. We will be consulting on these proposals shortly".
The Ofsted chief says inspectors visited 28 institutions where there were concerns and found 15 unregistered schools.
The schools that are still operating have not been identified, although some are believed to be in Birmingham and London. They include some linked to faith groups.
These are schools providing at least 20 hours a week of lessons, operating outside the supervision of the Department for Education, local authorities or Ofsted inspections.
Ofsted accuses the operators of some of these institutions of "using the freedoms afforded to genuine home educators as a cover for their activities".
But Sir Michael is calling on the education secretary for greater urgency in closing unregistered schools and in the response of councils and the Department for Education.
And he warns against "bureaucracy, legislation or lack of resources" being used as a "reason for inaction".
In one "deeply troubling case", Ofsted says inspectors had to return for a fifth visit to Bordesley independent school in Birmingham, which inspectors now believe has closed.
Sir Michael says inspectors had been delayed from entering, but once inside had found "squalid conditions, including three single mattresses covered in filthy sheets in one room and no running water in the toilet areas".
There was also "clear evidence of segregation, with separate classrooms for boys and girls" and "no evidence of appropriate vetting checks being carried out on staff".
Inspectors also warned of "pupils being taught a narrow curriculum that was failing to prepare them for life in modern Britain".
Sir Michael's letter says there were subsequent questions about rights of access for the local authority - and as such "I arranged for police officers from the West Midlands force to accompany inspectors to facilitate entry to the premises".
Mrs Morgan said: "We understand Bordesley has now closed and are keeping in close contact with Birmingham local authority as they work to urgently ensure the children involved are safe and are receiving suitable education."
The Ofsted chief has told the education secretary: "The arrangements for closing down unregistered schools are inadequate.
"Too many children remain at significant risk of harm. I will continue to do all that I can to identify and inspect unregistered schools."
Labour's shadow education secretary, Lucy Powell, said: "It is hard to fathom why arrangements for closing down unregistered schools remain inadequate and swift action on this issue has not been taken.
"With children at risk of being exposed to harm, exploitation or undue influences, more inertia from this government simply isn't good enough."
Ms Powell warned of a "dangerous void" in the local oversight of schools. | Ofsted is warning that pupils are being taught in "squalid" schools that are unregistered and unsupervised. | 34778509 | [

Naz Shah has apologised for sharing the graphic showing Israel's outline superimposed onto a map of the US with the comment "problem solved".
It was shared in 2014, before she became Bradford West MP.
The Board of Deputies said the post, highlighted by the Guido Fawkes political website, was "appalling".
The graphic said relocating Israel would be a "solution to the Israel-Palestine conflict", and that it would allow Palestinians to "get their life and their land back".
In a statement, Ms Shah said: "This post from two years ago was made before I was an MP, does not reflect my views and I apologise for any offence it has caused."
Labour confirmed she had stepped down as Parliamentary Private Secretary - an unpaid backbench assistant - to shadow chancellor John McDonnell.
In a second statement, the MP said: "I made these posts at the height of the Gaza conflict in 2014, when emotions were running high around the Middle East conflict.
"But that is no excuse for the offence I have given, for which I unreservedly apologise."
She said she would be expanding her "existing engagement and dialogue with Jewish community organisations and will be stepping up my efforts to combat all forms of racism, including anti-Semitism".
The Board of Deputies of British Jews said the comments were "simply appalling", calling for an urgent meeting "for clarification of her views on Israel and the UK Jewish community". | A Labour MP has stepped down as an aide to the shadow chancellor over a Facebook post suggesting Israel should be moved to the United States. | 36142529 | [

The Arches announced on Wednesday that it had gone into administration.
Management said they had been left with no choice after a midnight closing time was imposed on its nightclub by the city's licensing board.
The restriction followed police complaints about drug abuse and disorder.
It was said to have cut total revenues at the Arches by more than 50%, making it untenable as a business.
Sandra White, the SNP MSP for Glasgow Kelvin, raised the plight of the venue at First Minister's Questions in the Scottish Parliament, where Deputy First Minister John Swinney was standing in for Nicola Sturgeon during her trip to the US.
Ms White said 130 jobs had been put at risk by the Arches going into administration.
She added: "Aside from the fact that the Arches is one of Glasgow's most cultural venues, this is obviously a very worrying time for the staff facing redundancy.
"Can the deputy first minister assure those affected that the Scottish Government will offer all the support that it can?"
Mr Swinney replied: "Creative Scotland is working hard with the organisation and with other partners to explore options regarding the future of arts programming of this nature in Glasgow.
"Creative Scotland agreed with Glasgow Life and Glasgow City Council to bring forward some of this year's support for the Arches - £92,000 from Creative Scotland and £37,000 from Glasgow City Council - to assist with the delivery of the current arts programme in the short-term.
"I reassure Sandra White that we will look in all ways that we possibly can do to assist in safeguarding the future of what I recognise as a significant cultural venue in the city of Glasgow and a venue that contributes a great deal to the cultural life of Scotland."
Ms White said she was now calling on Glasgow City Council, Police Scotland and the management of the Arches to get round the table and "see what can be done to either reverse the closure or see what can be done to reopen the doors as soon as possible".
The Scottish government has also said staff potentially affected the Arches going into administration would be supported through the Partnership Action for Continuing Employment (Pace) initiative.
The Arches has received £11.2m of public funding, including £3.8m of capital funding, through Creative Scotland and previously the Scottish Arts Council over the past 20 years. | The Scottish government has said it will examine what it can do to help safeguard the future of Glasgow's troubled Arches arts venue. | 33098672 | [

BBC Sport will increase its TV coverage of all 12 international events, which will also be covered on the BBC Sport website and BBC Radio 5 live.
"The deal strengthens the BBC's long-term commitment to athletics," said BBC director of sport Barbara Slater.
"It is our biggest commitment in terms of coverage of the Diamond League on network television."
The BBC has a separate deal for live coverage of the two UK Diamond League events in Birmingham (7 June) and the Anniversary Games in London (24 and 25 July) which runs through to 2020.
Lamine Diack, the International Association of Athletics Federations president and chairman of the board of the Diamond League, said: "We are very proud to have a partner like the BBC to commit to such a broad coverage of our meeting series.
"BBC's support is of course also great news with regards to the upcoming IAAF World Athletics Championships in London 2017 and confirms the importance of our sport in the UK." | Highlights of the 2016 and 2017 Diamond League seasons will be available to watch on the BBC as part of a new deal. | 32622235 | [

He can clinch the decisive third point against David Goffin that would end a 79-year wait for a British victory.
Should Goffin prevail, the best-of-five tie will come down to a deciding match.

Kyle Edmund is scheduled to meet Ruben Bemelmans, but James Ward and Steve Darcis remain options for captains Leon Smith and Johan van Herck in Ghent.
Britain took a grip on the final when Andy and Jamie Murray beat Goffin and Darcis in Saturday's doubles.
"I still think we have a very good chance in both of the matches tomorrow," said Andy Murray.
"I'm not getting ahead of myself. I know how good a player Goffin is. You don't get to be ranked 15 in the world in today's game, with the depth that there is, if you're not pretty good."
The weight of evidence makes Murray a strong favourite to complete the job on Sunday, and add the Davis Cup to the game's great prizes he has already won at Wimbledon, the US Open and Olympic Games.
Murray, 28, has won both previous matches against Goffin in straight sets, at Wimbledon in 2014 and the Paris Masters earlier this month - that one a 6-1 6-0 drubbing.
This third encounter will take place on the indoor clay of Flanders Expo, and with 90% of the crowd willing the Scot to lose.
"I'm sure there will be nerves there, but I like being nervous," said Murray.
"I think it helps me. It helps me concentrate. It helps me give a little bit more effort. It might only be a couple of percent, but it all makes a difference."
Goffin, 24, has risen from outside the top 100 just 16 months ago to 16 in the world.
He unexpectedly needed five sets to see off Edmund on Friday and then played four sets of doubles on Saturday, but insisted "physically, I'm feeling good".
Goffin added: "I've never played against Andy on a clay court, so I'm going to try to play my best tennis.
"Of course, I have nothing to lose. They lead 2-1 in the tie. I just have to give everything I have for the match. I think on a clay court I have some weapons to play a good match."
Smith is within sight of guiding Britain to an historic Davis Cup victory, but remains focused on the task at hand.
Ward and Edmund were out practising on court soon after the doubles ended on Saturday, and their captain said: "There's so much to be played - potentially two big matches.
"But I would rather be having two shots rather than one."
There is a very real possibility that Ward, who won a five-set thriller over American John Isner in the first round, would be called up for a deciding rubber.
Van Herck has a similar dilemma, but Darcis declared himself available and the captain roused his players to make one last effort.
"There's a huge task ahead of us," he said. "I think for every tennis player, it's a position he wants to be in.
"We're going to show that we're a strong group, we're a strong team, and we're going to try to solve this together. We're all going to be ready to fight again. Anything can happen in Davis Cup." | Andy Murray says the Davis Cup final is "far from over" as he tries to win the competition for Great Britain against Belgium on Sunday. | 34955769 | [

In a column in the National newspaper, he said he has "little doubt" the "next test is coming".
He said that his "guess" on timing is that "it is likely to be the autumn of 2018".
Opposition parties pointed out that the SNP previously said the independence referendum was "once in a generation".
Mr Salmond resigned as SNP leader after losing the 2014 referendum, which was held two years ago on Sunday.
Writing in the National, he said: "If I have to guess a date then I'd say that it is likely to be the autumn of 2018. And even on that two-year timescale there is much to be done.
"In the first vote, what began as a Scottish government initiative transformed into a popular campaign. We should never forget that inspiration.
"However, indyref2 can't just be the same. As Leicester seem to be finding out in the Premier League, much to the regret of this romantic football fan.
"You can't roll out the same tactics and trust them to be as effective as before."
Mr Salmond made similar comments during an interview with Russia Today.
Independence supporters are holding a rally in Glasgow's George Square to campaign for a second referendum. A second rally is due to be held on Sunday.
Mr Salmond's successor, Nicola Sturgeon, has said a referendum re-run is "highly likely" following the UK's vote to leave the EU.
However, the first minister is also exploring "options" to maintain Scotland's links with the EU, as part of the UK's Brexit negotiations.
Writing in The Times, Scottish Labour leader Kezia Dugdale said "there should be a renewed focus on the day job from the SNP".
"Two years on, the divisions caused by that historic contest have not healed," she said.
"On social media and in the real word, the scars that are Alex Salmond's political legacy remain painfully obvious.
"Mr Salmond and Nicola Sturgeon promised voters that the result would stand for a 'generation'.
"I believe that when politicians promise something, the voters have a right to expect them to honour that.
"Yet here we are again, two years later, and Nicola Sturgeon is agitating for another referendum."
The Scottish Conservatives have been holding street stalls across Scotland to campaign against a second independence referendum.
Leader Ruth Davidson said: "Scottish Conservatives are out in towns and cities across Scotland today to stand with all those who don't want our country dragged back to a second referendum.
"Two years ago, we settled this issue - we decided to remain within the United Kingdom. This anniversary should be the moment when we move on, and we will stand with all those people across the country who want to do just that.
"We call on the SNP today to respect the decision we made.
"There is no justification to drag us back to an argument that belongs in the past. But the truth is that, far from listening to Scotland, it is the Scottish Nationalist Party that is proving itself to be deaf to Scotland's interests." | Former first minister Alex Salmond has suggested a second referendum on Scottish independence could be held in two years time. | 37395261 | [

Oxfordshire County Council has joined forces with new operator HourBike Ltd to bring back the OxonBike scheme, which has 30 cycles available to hire from seven locations around Headington.
The £150,000 project was originally launched in June last year, but the two-year pilot was cut short five months later when operator Grand Scheme Bike Share went into liquidation.
Hourbike will run it for a year.
David Nimmo Smith, the county's cabinet member for transport, said: "When the scheme launched last year around 500 people signed up, so I am sure that those people will be very keen to get back in the saddle.
"Commuters who use Thornhill Park and Ride and who travel in and around Headington to places like the universities and hospitals will find OXONBIKE particularly useful."
The cost of hiring the bikes is free for the first 30 minutes.
The scheme has been funded by the government through its Local Sustainable Transport Fund. | A bike hire scheme has been relaunched in Oxford six months after it folded. | 27923156 | [

Oribe Peralta struck from the 18-yard box after 32 seconds following some poor Brazilian defending.
Fabian Marco hit the Brazil crossbar before a completely unmarked Peralta headed his team's second goal.
Brazil, also hoping to win gold for the first time, pulled a goal back through Hulk in injury-time, before Oscar headed wide when well positioned.
"No one predicted that. I didn't think Mexico would win, let alone be as convincing as that. Full credit to Mexico, they fully deserve their victory."
In pictures: Mexico celebrates
But the South American side scarcely deserved to take the game into extra-time after a very patchy performance, particularly in defence.
Mano Menezes's team had scored three in each of their previous five games and were treating the tournament as an important staging post ahead of hosting the World Cup in 2014.
But if they are to succeed on home soil they will have to show a significant improvement from what they produced at Wembley, with star forward Neymar a largely peripheral figure.
Menezes went into Saturday's match under huge pressure to deliver gold and fill the one significant missing blank for the Brazilian team, but if the game was to be Brazil's coronation as Olympic champions then Mexico clearly had not read the script.

They defeated Brazil 2-0 in a friendly earlier in the summer and stunned Wembley when Peralta's low strike nestled in the bottom corner while many inside the stadium were still taking their seats.
Manchester United defender Rafael was partly at fault for the goal, his sloppy pass allowing Javier Aquino to nip in and dispossess Sandro, with the ball running invitingly into the path of Peralta.
Brazil could not find their stride - a situation not helped by a series of niggly fouls that broke up play and angered coach Menezes, who could be seen waving an imaginary card on the touchline.
And their disappointing start was put into stark perspective when Menezes made a change just after the half-hour mark, bringing on Hulk for Alex Sandro.
"Mexico deserve it, Brazil were arrogant and sloppy. They just thought they could turn up and win. It was a shocking performance from Brazil. They started poorly and continued in that vein."
The substitution made a difference and Jose Corona managed to palm clear a swerving strike from Hulk while Marcelo shot wastefully wide after he had linked with Oscar and Leandro Damiao to carve open the left side of the Mexican defence.
By the early stages of the second half it was obvious that Mexico had opted to try to defend their lead.
This seemed to play into the hands of their opponents, particularly Neymar, who had disappointed in the opening half but briefly relished the chance to repeatedly run at the Mexico defence.
He twice shot wide and saw another effort blocked, but his influence soon faded and Mexico almost struck with a swift break.
There was more shoddy Brazilian defending involved too, as Fabian dispossessed an opponent far too easily and eventually saw his overhead effort rebound off the crossbar.
An unmarked Peralta later slotted home from six yards but Brazil were saved by the offside flag. There was to be no reprieve with 15 minutes remaining.
A free-kick was delivered from the right and the Mexico striker was left completely alone to head home from eight yards.
Brazil's frustrating afternoon saw team-mates Juan Jesus and Rafael square up to each other in the final minutes.
Hulk's injury-time strike into the bottom corner briefly ignited hope of a spectacular comeback and Oscar then headed wastefully wide at the near post as Mexico held on. | Mexico stunned favourites Brazil 2-1 at Wembley to win the men's Olympic football gold medal for the first time. | 18912627 | [

The 35-year-old threw a new F51 European record of 17.68m to score 1100 points and finish ahead of team-mates Josie Pearson and Gemma Prescott.
It beat the previous best of 15.83 set by Ireland's Catherine O'Neill in 2001.
"I'm throwing well at the moment and once I got the big throw, I knew the pressure was off," said Butterfield.
The Glasgow-based newcomer, who was left paralysed by a tumour on her spinal cord in 2011, took up athletics earlier this year via the talent identification programme Girls4Gold after playing wheelchair rugby for a couple of years.
"Because I was already doing rugby and the strength and conditioning work with that, I just had to try to adapt that to athletics," she told BBC Sport. "I've loved it and trained hard but I know I have a lot more to learn.
"Representing GB for the first time here has been a bit surreal but the team has been great and everyone has been really welcoming.
"The difference sport has made to me is huge but I never dreamed I would be part of this so soon."
Compatriot Pearson was frustrated after three of her six throws were deemed to be fouls.
"There was a technical issue with my throws with an official saying I was breaking some of the rules," she said.
"I've been throwing the same way all season and not been pulled up on it before so it is frustrating for this to happen at a major championship where I know I could have thrown further." | Debutant Jo Butterfield led a British clean sweep of the medals in the women's F32/51 club throw at the IPC Athletics European Championships. | 28899572 | [

The blaze took hold of the Royal Victoria Hospital building at about 16:20.
Firefighters used six pumping appliances and breathing apparatus to battle the blaze. They were still at the scene a number of hours later.
A Scottish Fire and Rescue spokeswoman said there were no casualties in the incident.
The fire was reported by a significant number of people as smoke rose from the abandoned building.
The Royal Victoria Hospital was closed in 2012, but later temporarily reopened to deal with seasonal demand. | A fire at a disused hospital in Edinburgh led to thick smoke being seen across the city. | 40006002 | [

Hughie Maughan's teak tone under the spotlight had viewers doing their own keyboard tap dance.
The Dublin man was appearing on Irish broadcaster RTÉ's Dancing With The Stars at the weekend.
Hughie told RTÉ's Ryan Tubridy he had laughed off the comments, claiming he had "thick elephant skin".
"The entire place was staring at me and the whole studio was looking at me, laughing and were gobsmacked," he added.
"I just found it funny. I'm one of those types of people, I'm bonkers when it comes to certain things.
"It's made people speak about me which is probably a good thing, I am on a TV show… Isn't that the point of television?"
Hughie's boyfriend Ryan Ruckledge was among those who contributed to the comments sparked by his partner's polished visage.
"He really shouldn't have taken tanning tips from me," he joked, before adding, "bad boyfriend advice hahah sorry".
The pair met on Channel 5's Big Brother programme last year.
Others compared Hughie to Ross Geller from the hit US TV show Friends when David Schwimmer's sitcom character has a spray tan fiasco.
Host Nicky Byrne said: "Hughie, you are trending on Twitter - we don't know why." | An Irish dance show contestant has sent viewers into a spin with the intensity of his fake tan. | 38649706 | [

The Coventry Festival of Motoring, which attracted 40,000 visitors in 2014, has had ??20,000 of funding withdrawn by the city council.
However, organisers Culture Coventry said the funding withdrawal was "not the only reason" they had made the decision to cancel the event.
It said events planned for 2015 and 2016 have been axed.
Organisers said they had not ruled out reviving the festival, but it would remain on hold indefinitely.
The free heritage event, which features classic cars, was due to take place in August at Stoneleigh Park.
It is organised by Culture Coventry, a trust set up to manage four of the city's visitor attractions.
Chief executive Gary Hall said he had just found out about the council's funding withdrawal.
"I have to look at the ongoing viability of the show and with cuts coming from the city council and other sponsors, we would not be able to grow it as we have in recent years," he said.
"It is a lot of money and, as a charity running four attractions in the city, we have to look at what benefits we are getting."
He said the charity was reopening Coventry's Transport Museum in June following a ??9m redevelopment.
"Unfortunately, we have to put all of our resources into promoting the museum," he said.
Mr Hall said the charity would run "a number of events" throughout 2015 to bring classic car owners into Coventry.
Coventry MotoFest, a more recent addition to the city's festival calendar, which features car races and displays, will go ahead in May, as planned. | A motoring festival which has been running for 30 years is to be cancelled, organisers have said. | 31793338 | [

I'm not sure that is the right description for the 2016 US election campaign, but some variation on that must come close - maybe instead of 'greatest' we could have weirdest, most compelling, unpredictable, disturbing, hate-filled, bizarre.
Maybe all of those things - and a few more besides.
I spoke to a producer in London the other day and he asked whether I could incorporate into my TV piece the standout moments of the campaign. And my mind went into Matrix mode. A thousand different, fractured memories went kaleidoscoping through my brain. A thousand different jaw-dropping episodes. Where would I start?
As I start writing this (it's Sunday afternoon) the FBI director has just sought to wade out of the US election, having waded in 10 days earlier in the most astonishing fashion. So having sent the most unbelievably opaque letter that there might be a whiff ... he now says there isn't.
But what an astonishing state of affairs. James Comey's letter breathed new life into the Trump campaign, and who knows how many senate races he's affected where early voting is taking place. Why did he write the letter in the first place? What was he hoping to achieve? What did he assess the fallout would be? And ultimately why put the FBI in the middle of the election when they are now trying to back out? Astonishing. And yes, I know I've already used that word in this paragraph.
But this election day blog is not about the FBI - more a way of highlighting how at every turn there have been incidents that just boggle, confuse and occasionally fry the brain. Where to start? Well there are the obvious ones - Donald Trump describing Mexicans as thieves and rapists, him mocking a disabled person, disparaging PoWs, wanting to ban all Muslims.
There were the ones that made me laugh. Yes, I just laughed when I read a newsflash saying the Pope goes to war with Donald Trump over his plan to build a wall. The Holy Father, I thought. No, this must be some kind of error. But on a flight back to Rome, he had indeed decided to wade in.
Then there was the Access Hollywood tape - and him boasting about grabbing a woman by the pussy. We have reported on him allegedly putting his hands on a woman's vagina. We have reported on the size of his penis, when that whole subject came up (sorry) during the primary process. Small hands, he said, meaning ... well you know the rest.
So in one election campaign I have been on air discussing male genitalia and female genitalia. After 30 years plus reporting and having covered elections all over the world, this is new territory for me. But give this narrative to a publisher as a book proposal, and they would write back and say 'Dear Mr Sopel, thank you for your submission. Unfortunately it seems too far fetched.'
And it hasn't exactly been dull on the Hillary side either - emailgate, endless Wikileaks, her collapse from pneumonia which her aides just had no idea how to handle.
Somehow we ended up with two presidential candidates uniquely unpopular in American polling history. So many people have said to me on my travels around this great continent, how was it out of a population of 320 million we ended up with such an appalling choice. A choice between death by drowning or firing squad.
All of which brings me to the more important point about this election. For all the fireworks, the whizzes and bangs, the sky lighting up in luminescent colours - the bigger truth about this campaign is that it has shown a deeply polarised America. A Disunited State of America, if you like.
Who knows whether Donald Trump will win or lose - there's no point trying to look into a crystal ball when we can wait a few hours and get the results proper.
But what his campaign has shown is there is a sizeable minority of Americans who are not just disaffected and feeling alienated, they are furious. They feel that America is going to hell in a handcart. They feel that Washington is a corrupt cesspool. They cry 'drain the swamp' at Trump rallies - with almost as much gusto as they shout 'lock her up,' about Hillary Clinton.
Trump draws most of his support from slightly less well educated, slightly older white men - but by no means all. There are a vast number of Americans who've simply had it with conventional, democratic politics. These are people who want America to pull up the drawbridge and stop trying to be the global policeman and global trader. They are people who are demanding radical change - and ideally overnight.
Whoever wins this turbulent, divisive, vituperative election is not going to enjoy any kind of political honeymoon. There is too much anger for that.
There will be no basking in the warm glow of the adoration of the American public. I guarantee you this: over 40% of the American public will not only feel the normal disappointment that their man/woman didn't win, but they will feel that the winner is a corrupt, fraudulent, venal charlatan. The office of the presidency should rise above individuals, but in 2016 it's going to struggle to.
When I was trying to find what word to use instead of 'greatest' at the start of this blog, I should have gone for troubling. | "The greatest show on earth" was PT Barnum's claim for his three ring circus. | 37891713 | [

Mohammad Amir took 3-63 for the hosts, his best figures since his return from a spot-fixing ban, to ensure victory for the hosts in their 400th Test.
Bravo's 116 gave West Indies - chasing 346 to win - hope, before he fell to Yasir Shah to leave them 263-7.
Pakistan wrapped up victory with 12 overs to spare.
The second match of the three-Test series starts on Friday in Abu Dhabi.
Beginning the final day on 95-2, West Indies - now without a win in 12 Tests - lost Marlon Samuels caught behind off the first ball to Amir.
But Bravo shared half-century stands with Roston Chase and captain Jason Holder and reached three figures off 211 balls, having hit nine fours and a six, to bring West Indies within sight of what would have been the third highest successful run chase in Tests.
The experiment of having a day-night Test in the United Arab Emirates looks to have failed after a lacklustre turnout across the five days.
While 123,736 fans packed into the Adelaide Oval across three days in November 2015 for the first ever day-night Test between Australia and New Zealand, official figures suggest just 6,000 spectators watched the action over five days in Dubai.
On Friday, the first of the weekend in the UAE, the crowd was a little over 2,400 at its peak despite an entry fee of just AED 20 (£4.50).
Problems with the pink Kookaburra ball arose too, despite its seam being strengthened and coloured black to make it easier for the batsmen to see.
The pink ball had to be changed after just three overs in Pakistan's second innings on the fourth day after losing its shape - with just one ball throughout the duration of the Test lasting the full 80 overs.
Pakistan coach Mickey Arthur: "There's some work to do with the pink ball. I don't think it's up to the standard required yet and I think that's the only thing holding day-night cricket back.
"We didn't get the pink ball to reverse swing and we saw it get soft quite quickly, so it has a way to go."
Former West Indies captain Sir Viv Richards: "I don't think they have fully sussed the right ball just yet and the jury is still out with the changes in shape and discolouration of the ball, but once they get that right the future may look a little bit brighter.
"We have to try various ways and means to give new excitement to the game. I remember when one-day cricket started there were some issues with the white ball and it's still very much in existence so we need to give the pink ball a chance."
Former Pakistan captain and coach Waqar Younis: "Test match cricket is still the pinnacle and we have to preserve it. We haven't fiddled with it too much from the beginning and I don't think we need to do too much.
"Some pitches may end up being too juicy for the pink ball in the evening.
"If it's attracting crowds, which I haven't seen it do here in Dubai, then I am for day-night Tests but if it isn't then we need to stick to cricket the way it is now." | Pakistan clinched a thrilling 56-run win over West Indies in the day-night Test in Dubai despite a Darren Bravo century on the final day. | 37685701 | [

Addressing the issue of students getting value for money, he will challenge an "upward spiral" in university leaders' pay.
Universities will be asked to publicly justify how they can pay their heads more than the prime minister.
The question of university value has been under scrutiny, with fees increasing to £9,250 in England.
In a speech to university leaders on Thursday, Mr Johnson will call for universities to set out much clearer contracts for students on what they can expect.
He will promise better "consumer protection" for students.
An annual study has shown a decreasing sense of value for money among students - with concerns about getting fewer teaching hours than they expected.
Mr Johnson will highlight concerns over increases in vice-chancellors' pay - with dozens of university heads now receiving over £300,000 and some being paid more than £400,000.
"When students and taxpayers invest so heavily in our higher education system, value for money should be guaranteed. Yet, I am still hearing students say that their course is poor quality.
"This is not good enough, especially when some vice-chancellors take home a wage that in some cases exceeds that of the prime minister."
There have been concerns about the rising costs of university in England - with tuition fees increasing to £9,250 and interest rates on loans rising to 6.1%.
The Institute for Fiscal Studies says that average debts for graduates will now be over £50,000 - and that interest charges will have reached £5,800 before students have even graduated.
Former education minister Lord Adonis says such high levels of interest are "indefensible" and predicts that they will be changed.
And the head of the Russell Group of leading universities has described such interest charges as "out of touch" and called for them to be reviewed.
But Mr Johnson is expected to defend the current system of student finance and university funding. | Universities Minister Jo Johnson is going to challenge universities over "excessive" pay for vice-chancellors. | 40654940 | [

UK Parking Control (UKPC) said it has investigated allegations one of its employees in Lincoln had changed timestamps on photos.
It said it had worked "to mitigate the risk of this re-occurring".
But, a wider inquiry in other parts off the UK by the British Parking Association (BPA) is under way.
The BPA said it could not comment further as they were "still in the process of our investigation".
UKPC has also been reported to Action Fraud and the complaint is currently being assessed by the National Fraud Intelligence Bureau.
Alex Shipp, who campaigns as the Parking Prankster, said: "I think this merits a full investigation, rather than just acknowledging the few cases we know about so far."
The issue came to light in Lincoln when Simone Riley-Young was issued with a parking charge notice while parked at Tritton Retail Park on 18 July.
Drivers can park there free of charge for up to two hours.
The timestamps on the photos said 07:15 and 09:27, but Ms Riley-Young said the earlier time was impossible as she was still in bed.
Another driver, Matthew Treacy, had the same problem at the car park on 23 August.
The timestamps on the photos of his car said 14:06 and 16:21, but Mr Treacy said he had four independent sources to prove his car could not have been in the car park at 14:06.
UKPC operates more than 1,400 sites nationwide and similar problems have been reported outside Lincoln, including in Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire.
Talking about the Lincoln incidents, UKPC said there had been a full investigation.
"This behaviour is completely contrary to UKPC's operating procedures and employees who do not adhere to our high professional standards or codes of conduct are subject to disciplinary proceedings up to and including dismissal," a spokesman said.
"We have put steps in place to mitigate the risk of this reoccurring."
The BBC contacted UKPC again about incidents elsewhere in the country, but the company has not responded. | A car park operator is being investigated over claims photographic evidence has been altered to unfairly impose parking charges. | 34172701 | [

Hamilton trails Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel by 12 points heading into this weekend's Azerbaijan Grand Prix.
Hamilton said: "Consistency is the key to winning the title and up until now Sebastian has had the consistency of a winning championship.
"We have to improve that if we are to have a shot at winning the title."
Hamilton won the last race in Canada but had poor performances in two of the previous three races, finishing fourth in Russia and seventh in Monaco after uncompetitive displays.
He was 24 points behind Vettel before Canada, but a dominant performance by the Briton, allied to Vettel suffering damage to his car and having to fight back to fourth, allowed him to cut the deficit in half.
"The last race was important for the team and definitely important for me in the fight for the championship," he said.
"After all the work that has gone in, [it was] a taste of greatness that we want every weekend. It pushed us to another level and we are fighting a continued fight for more of those weekends."
Hamilton said he was determined to win this weekend in Baku after a difficult weekend on the street track last year.
The Mercedes driver was the fastest by far throughout practice but drove badly in qualifying before crashing and could only finish fifth in the race.
"I am here to win in Baku, which is the only race I have not won," Hamilton said.
"Last year there were a lot of signs of greatness in terms of pace but I wasn't able to convert it. I hope this weekend I will be able to do that.
"I have looked through what I went through last year here and know where are the pitfalls are and the issues I had then and don't plan on having the same ones this weekend.
"But it is a new year and I'm sure there will be scenarios but we are better prepared than we were then."
Hamilton, who is contracted to Mercedes until the end of 2018, also cooled speculation over his future after he was quoted in a magazine interview saying he "could" stop at the end of this year.
"I don't even remember discussing that," he said. "It's not something I'm thinking about right now."
Pushed on whether he wanted to retire at the top, Hamilton said: "The dream for a lot of sportsmen and women is to go out on top.
"I guess you could then say a lot of people had stopped before their time.
"I haven't decided whether I want to stop before my time. At the moment, I don't plan to."
And asked whether he would like to drive for Ferrari in the future, he said: "At the moment, all I'm thinking about is beating the Ferrari.
"I have made it no secret I am a big fan of Ferrari and what they have achieved. Who knows what he future holds? At the moment I can't imagine myself being anywhere else than here and I am really enjoying the fight with Ferrari." | Lewis Hamilton says both he and his Mercedes team have to be more consistent if they are to beat Ferrari to the world championship this year. | 40369703 | [
