Give a short summary of the provided document. | The decision comes after Sussex Police said the number killed in the Shoreham crash on Saturday may rise.
Tendring District Council, which runs the Clacton show, said it had taken advice from its flight consultants.
The council said its view was that the Clacton show was significantly different to Shoreham because most of the flying takes place over the sea.
"At this point in time nothing has changed as far as Clacton is concerned," said council spokesman Nigel Brown.
He said the matter had been discussed on Sunday in the wake of the Shoreham crash.
"However, there will be no complacency and those people directly involved in the flying displays will be going through all the normal checks and procedures that take place before any event of this kind," Mr Brown explained.
"Safety is, and always will be, our primary concern at all times."
The Hawker Hunter jet that crashed at Shoreham was based at North Weald Airfield in Essex, but was not due to appear at the Clacton show, which takes place on Thursday and Friday. | Organisers of the Clacton Airshow say it will go ahead as planned following the Shoreham Airshow disaster. |
Give a short summary of the provided document. | It has also raised its sales forecast for its key market of North America, where it has been enjoying a strong performance.
The firm said net profit may reach as much as 2tn Japanese yen ($17.5bn; £10.96bn) for the year to March 2015.
The carmaker's earlier forecast was for a net profit of 1.78tn yen.
Toyota's executive vice president, Nobuyori Kodaira, said the firm had also raised its forecasts for operating profit and revenue for the period.
"We are revising our operating income forecast upwards by 200bn yen to 2.5tn yen," he said.
He said this reflected the progress made on marketing and in reducing costs, and also the change in foreign exchange rates.
Toyota also reported results for the six months to September, with net profit up 12.6% to 1.12tn yen.
The carmaker said its vehicle sales for the period had fallen in Asia, including in Japan, but had increased in North America and Europe.
The net profit figure includes profits made with the firm's joint venture partners in China: China FAW Group and Guangzhou Automobile Group.
The Japanese firm said its vehicle sales in North America had come to 1,395,105, up from 97,061 a year ago, but that in Japan, vehicle sales had decreased by 70,977 to 1,030,229.
The news follows results from Toyota's rival Nissan, which reported on Tuesday a 25% increase in half-year profits.
Like Toyota, Nissan said strong sales in its key market of North America had helped to offset weaker demand in some other markets.
Japan's firms, especially those relying on exports, have benefited from the weakness in the yen, which helps bring down the cost of Japanese goods sold abroad.
Japan's central bank, Bank of Japan, announced last week that it would expand its monetary stimulus measures, a move which has seen the yen weaken to a near seven-year low.
The weaker yen has also helped big manufacturers such as Toyota and Nissan offset slower sales in Japan, where a sales tax rise earlier this year dented consumer activity.
Toyota's positive full-year forecast comes despite a recall of 1.75 million vehicles worldwide over faulty brake installations and fuel component issues.
The latest brake defect was found in some models of Toyota's Crown Majesta, as well as the Noah and Voxy models produced between June 2007 and 2012. | Japan's biggest car manufacturer, Toyota, has raised its full-year profit forecast by 12.4%, citing a weaker yen and cost cutting efforts. |
Give a concise summary of the passage below. | Co-leader Jonathan Bartley said: "These laws protect our air, water and climate and they affect everyone in the UK who values our natural world."
He wants a new Environmental Protection Act to replace EU legislation.
The government says EU environmental protection rules will be copied across into UK law to ensure continuity.
But environmental campaigners fear the government will start scrapping them after Britain's exit from the EU to cut red tape.
Mr Bartley, who co-leads the Green Party of England and Wales with MP Caroline Lucas, said: "Brexit is an unprecedented threat to the environment and puts 40 years of legislation at risk."
More than 90% of people in the UK live within 20km (12 miles) of a site protected under the EU's nature laws, according to research by conservationists.
Mr Bartley also promised to oppose cuts to local services, as he launched his party's campaign with a speech in Worcester.
"The Green Party is the only party fighting both an extreme Brexit and Tory government cuts, protecting public services locally while strengthening relationships internationally," said Mr Bartley.
The party has also responded to US missile strikes on Syria, saying they risked "exacerbating an already complex situation in the absence of any coherent strategy to contain the violence and in the longer term".
Co-leader Caroline Lucas said: "It is deeply concerning that President Trump took this action without the permission of Congress and it is now of the utmost importance that Prime Minister Theresa May calls on him to help build some kind of international consensus around what happens next."
The Scottish Green Party is due to launch its local election campaign next Tuesday in Glasgow, with a manifesto for local government.
The Greens in Scotland are looking to build on existing councillor numbers in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeenshire, Midlothian and Stirling.
They are also aiming to elect the party's first councillors in many of the remaining 27 local authorities in Scotland.
The Greens are fielding a record number of candidates at the 4 May polls, with 1,561 standing across England, Scotland and Wales.
Reginald "Rex" Warneford received the Victoria Cross (VC) after becoming the first British pilot to shoot down a German Zeppelin in 1915.
Memorials will be revealed in Exmouth, Devon, and Highworth, Wiltshire, towns connected to him and his family.
A school where he boarded in Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire, is also remembering his deeds with a plaque.
The man who destroyed a 'baby-killer'
The government had previously decided to lay commemorative paving stones in the home towns of 480 British-born VC recipients, but Indian-born Warneford was excluded.
However, he lived in England at King Edward VI School, in Stratford-upon-Avon, and Highworth, for a time, as his family owned Warneford Place in Sevenhampton.
The Department for Communities and Local Government agreed to allow the stones to be laid after a campaign.
As well as the Victoria Cross, which is on display at the Fleet Air Arm Museum in Yeovil, Somerset, the French awarded him the Knight's Cross Legion d'Honneur.
The town of Exmouth adopted the war hero as its own and a flagstone will be laid there in the Strand Gardens.
Another stone will also be unveiled after a civic service in Highworth, Wiltshire.
One of Swindon's best-performing schools, Warneford Comprehensive in Highworth, is also named after him.
Warneford's niece, Faye Erskine, will unveil the commemorative stone at King Edward VI School's guildhall on Monday.
Headmaster Bennet Carr said: "This memorial will ensure that Rex's conspicuous bravery will be remembered for generations to come." | Brexit poses an "unprecedented" threat to laws protecting the environment, the Green Party is to warn at the launch of its local election campaign.

Summarize the following piece. | Ryan McMillan, 18, drove around a car park in South Shields, South Tyneside, with the girl face down on his roof.
McMillan, of Ashington, Northumberland, was sentenced to 240 hours of unpaid work for dangerous driving and disqualified for 18 months by North Tyneside magistrates.
The girl, who cannot be named, was also disqualified from driving for a year.
She had been charged with aiding or abetting dangerous driving and must re-sit her test, Northumbria Police said.
Police road safety officer PC Anthony French said: "One slight mistake can lead to a fatal incident that will destroy lives forever.

What is the summary of the following article? | The 25-year-old, who was diagnosed with nodular sclerosing Hodgkin lymphoma in October, announced on Twitter that he was in "complete remission".
Thompson has undergone a six-month course of chemotherapy.
The former Rochdale midfielder, who has spent the past two seasons at Tranmere, is now targeting a quick return to first-team football.
Speaking to BBC Late Kick Off in March, Thompson revealed he had received support from other sporting cancer survivors following his diagnosis, which was made after he complained of increased fatigue and illness.
Among them was tennis player Ross Hutchins, who successfully beat Hodgkin lymphoma in 2013.
While undergoing treatment, Thompson has raised more than £16,000 for Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research as part of the "Grow 4 Joe" campaign, with team-mates and footballers from other clubs pledging to grow their hair in the closing weeks of last season. | Tranmere Rovers winger Joe Thompson has been given the all-clear by doctors following a battle with cancer. |
What is the summary of the document provided? | Laura Lacole is due to wed Republic of Ireland midfielder Eunan O'Kane at a venue in Northern Ireland next month.
She is challenging the General Register Office for refusing to officially authorise the ceremony.
It is due to be conducted by a British Humanist Association celebrant.
Her action is also directed at Stormont's Department of Finance's alleged failure to introduce legislation allowing the couple to have a legally recognised and binding wedding occasion.
Ms Lacole's lawyers claim that she is being discriminated against under European laws protecting freedom of belief.
Granting her leave to seek a judicial review at the High Court in Belfast, a judge said: "It seems to me this is an arguable case and an important matter of public interest has been raised."
Proceedings will now advance to a full hearing later this month.
Ms Lacole, 27, and Mr O'Kane, 26, who is originally from Feeny in County Londonderry, both described themselves as humanists - a non-religious combination of attitudes and beliefs centred on human experience and welfare.
Humanist marriages are currently legally recognised in Scotland and the Republic of Ireland.
Under current legislation in Northern Ireland a couple wanting such a ceremony must also have a separate civil registration for their marriage to be recognised in law.
Outside court, Ms Lacole said the couple had decided to go public about their relationship and imminent marriage because of the importance of the issue.
Ms Lacole, who is also vice-chair of Atheist NI, said: "We want to get married in a ceremony which embraces our values, who we are as individuals and how we see life, just in the same way as any religious person would want to be married in a ceremony reflective of their beliefs." | A Belfast woman has cleared the first stage in a legal bid to have her forthcoming humanist marriage to an international footballer legally recognised. |
Can you summarize this passage? | Peggy Styles, 86, took eight years to complete the course due to the life-threatening condition.
"The university was absolutely super and agreed to suspend my studies until I felt better. I was determined to finish my doctorate," she said.
She is the oldest ever student to graduate from the university.
Mrs Styles, from Failand near Bristol, fell ill about three years ago, forcing her to suspend her studies for 18 months.
Typically a doctorate degree takes about three to four years to complete.
"I was so ill that I nearly died. I was in hospital for a month and had to learn to walk again," she said.
Mrs Styles will be joined by her family when she collects her doctorate on 19 July.
Sadly her husband John will not be at her side as he died in 2016 just as she was finishing her 48,000-word dissertation.
"Although I'm 86, I don't really feel that old," she said.
"My legs and arms are not what they were but my tongue still wags and my brain still functions. I'd keep studying forever if I could."
Mrs Styles was born in England to Belgian parents in 1931 and was six when the family moved back to Belgium.
They returned to England as refugees in 1940, having escaped on the last troop ship sailing out of St Malo.
Due to the upheaval and being schooled in different languages she left school at 15 with only a qualification in shorthand.

There was a fourfold increase in the diagnosis of potentially curable cancers in the Manchester pilot, Macmillan Cancer Support said.
Early diagnosis of lung cancer in "stages one or two" is seen as crucial for a patient's survival.
Consultant Dr Phil Barber said: "We believe we have saved lives."
Dr Barber, from University Hospital South Manchester NHS Trust (UHSM), said: "If we hadn't picked them up [the patients] with this targeted method they might have come to us either one year or two years later and they would have been incurable."

The court had been told Lesny's own home in Warwick Road had been flooded during the storm.
In mitigation, he said since taking the furniture he had made a donation to Cumbria's flood recovery fund.
But Judge Davies told him: "You were going to go into people's homes and take property.

Can you summarize the following information? | Westland Horticulture manufactures and supplies gardening products to retailers and currently employs 238 people in Dungannon.
The firm has built a new fertiliser manufacturing plant in the town and is investing in new machinery and staff training programmes.
The expansion is being supported with £1.5m in grants from Invest NI.
The firm's co-managing director Edward Conroy said "This is an immensely important strategic investment that will enable us to grow our market share in the consumer lawn care market and control our innovation pipeline."
He added: "It will enable us to respond faster to market opportunities in Britain, Ireland and other European markets that we have identified as offering significant growth potential in both short and medium terms.
"We already have a presence in both the German and Polish markets and intend to focus further resources on both and other neighbouring regions."
Northern Ireland's Enterprise Minister Jonathan Bell said it was a "hugely significant investment" that demonstrated the company's commitment to its Dungannon-based workforce.
"The 70 new jobs will provide a substantial boost to Dungannon and wider Tyrone area, contributing £2.1m annually to the local economy," the minister added.
Almost half of the positions have already been filled, and the others will be in place by next year.
As well as its base in Dungannon, Westland Horticulture has three production plants in Great Britain, another in Germany and a sales office in Poland. | Seventy new jobs are being created by a horticulture company in County Tyrone, in a £9.6m expansion of its business. |
Please provide a short summary of this passage. | Flynn, 61, was the Swansea boss who masterminded the club retaining their Football League status on the last day of the 2002-03 season.
He has since worked with the Wales age-grade teams and was caretaker boss of the senior side for two games.
During eight years in charge of the Wales under-21s, Flynn oversaw the progression of Gareth Bale, Aaron Ramsey, Joe Allen and Wayne Hennessey.
Several of the youngsters went on to form the nucleus of Chris Coleman's Euro 2016 semi-finalists.
Flynn, who played for Wales 66-times, was a firm favourite at the Vetch Field and cemented his legacy when they retained their Football League status on the final day of the 2003 campaign with a 4-2 win over Hull City.

Summarize the information in the following document. | The results? In some cases, about 0.01% of pool water is urine.
It is a small amount but likely more than enough for most swimmers - and enough to be a public health concern.
In one instance, the researchers estimated that an 833,000-litre (220,000-gallon) pool could contain about 75 litres of urine (20 gallons) on average.
A smaller 416,000-litre (110,000-gallon) pool was estimated to contain 30 litres (eight gallons).
The University of Alberta researchers analysed more than 250 samples from 31 pools and hot tubs. The samples were collected in two undisclosed Canadian cities, from public and private pools, hotels, and hot tubs.
Dr Xing-Fang Li, with the University of Alberta's Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology, and her colleagues said recent instances - like the diving pools at the 2016 Rio Olympics turning green - highlight the importance of monitoring water quality.
The scientists used the amount of acesulfame potassium (ACE), a common artificial sweetener that passes that through the body and is excreted in urine, as a marker for their tests.
ACE was found in all the study samples and allowed them to roughly measure how much urine is actually in a pool.
Researcher Lindsay Blackstock says that "the only logical explanation for why it would end in swimming pools and hot tubs in such elevated levels is urine".
The team knew going into the study that though people do relieve themselves when swimming.
"Although considered a taboo, 19% of adults have admitted to having urinated in a swimming pool at least once," they note in the study.
When mixed with chlorine in a pool or hot tub, urine can contribute to the formation of so-called "disinfection by-products" in pool water that can be harmful to a swimmer's health.
Those compounds. specifically one called trichloramine, can potentially cause eye irritation, respiratory problems, and has been linked to occupational asthma for people who spend hours in pools, like pool workers and professional swimmers.
Ms Blackstock said cleaning chemicals like chlorine, which help stop the transmission of water-born pathogens, are not the problem - people are.
"If you're peeing in the pool, you're contributing to a potential health risk," she said.
Urine is not the only factor in the formation of those disinfection by-products - sweat, body lotions and hair care products contribute to the problem as well.
The Edmonton-based researchers suggested that a public health campaign focusing on pool hygiene, like taking a quick shower before jumping in the pool, might help reduce exposure to those disinfection by-products.
The research was published on Wednesday in the Environmental Science and Technology Letters journal.
The drinks giant said that under the new Diverted Profits Tax regime, HMRC will ask for more tax and interest for the past two financial years.
Diageo said it would challenge the HMRC's assessment.
However, the company said it will have to pay £107m then work with HMRC to resolve the issue.
Diageo, which owns brands including Johnnie Walker whisky and Tanqueray gin, said: "The payment of this sum is not a reflection of Diageo's view on the merits of the case and, based on its current assessment, Diageo considers no provision is required in relation to Diverted Profits Tax."
The company does not expect the situation to have an effect on its tax for the current financial year to June, and expects the rate to be 21%.
The dispute centres on profits that have been moved between the UK and the Netherlands.
The Diverted Profits Tax regime was introduced in 2015 and levies a 25% charge on taxable profits that have been diverted from the UK.
The company said: "Diageo does not believe that it falls within the scope of the new Diverted Profits Tax regime."

Give a concise summary of the following information. | William Allright, three, had been helping his father sweep the backyard of their home in Great Yarmouth when he picked up the syringe.
His father Stephen believes drug users who use a nearby alley dumped it there.
Residents raised £1,000 to put up gates but the council removed them saying the alley was a right of way.
The needle incident happened in the back garden of the Embassy Hotel where the family is living.
Residents are now fighting to get the alley closed off officially to stop it happening again.
Mr Allright said: "When you see your child at such a young age with a needle in his hand you wonder where on earth he got it from.
"You find yourself worried to death."
The boy has had a hepatitis B vaccination and is on antibiotics after a visit to hospital.
He now faces six months of further tests until he is cleared of any infection concerns, his father said.
In a statement, Great Yarmouth Borough Council said the situation was under constant review and it encouraged businesses in the area to keep reporting incidents.
The 28-year-old Dublin-born former Coventry City, Hibernian and Northampton Town player has signed a two-year contract.
Deegan follows the signing of Rochdale defender Oliver Lancashire by Town, who let eight players go following their League One relegation near miss.
BBC Radio Stoke believe Shrewsbury are also to sign Port Vale's Louis Dodds.
The 29-year-old forward, one of 13 Vale players who have only been offered a new deal on reduced terms, is expected to sign on a free transfer when his current contract expires in June.
The former Leicester City trainee Dodds has scored 56 goals in 332 appearances since signing for Vale in July 2008.
"I'm certain Gary will be a great crowd favourite," said Shrewsbury manager Micky Mellon. "He's a defensive midfielder who can sit in front of the centre-backs and protect them, and is also a leader, organiser and a massive winner.
"He'll be tough on the players around him because he has high standards of himself and his team-mates and he'll get the most out of them."
Deegan has scored just seven goals in 149 appearances since first crossing the Irish Sea to join Coventry from Bohemians in January 2010.
But he does attract the attention of referees, having picked up 31 yellow cards and two red cards over the past three seasons.
"Micky Mellon is looking for players with experience of League One or above as he rebuilds his squad and tries to shore up last season's leaky defence - and tough-tackling Gary Deegan fits his new manager's criteria.
"Deegan is the fifth combative, deep-lying midfielder in the Town squad and speculation will now increase as to the futures of some of the club's existing midfielders. In turn, the arrival of Louis Dodds could push out of favour strikers James Collins and Tyrone Barnett closer to the exit door.
"Dodds is a different sort of player. An attacking midfielder, winger or forward who fans will hope can add some creativity and guile to a frontline that looked so predictable without stand out loan signing Sullay Kaikai last term."

Provide a concise overview of the following information. | OneKind said "enough was enough" after four years of unsuccessful attempts to breed using the "invasive procedure" on Tian Tian.
Experts carried out the procedure on Sunday evening after tests showed she had reached peak fertility.
The zoo is open but the panda enclosure will remain closed until Thursday.
Tian Tian has failed to produce a cub despite repeated artificial inseminations since her arrival at the zoo with a male panda, Yang Guang, in 2011.
Libby Anderson, OneKind policy advisor, said: "It is desperately sad that the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland has chosen to subject Tian Tian to further invasive procedures for a fourth year running in a bid to produce a panda cub.
"OneKind maintains its position that attempting to breed more captive pandas in Edinburgh Zoo is misguided, when they will never return to the wild or improve protection for the wild population in their native habitat."
"We have said time and time again that the zoo should leave the animals in peace rather than continually forcing unnatural procedures on them in efforts to breed a captive panda cub.
"After four years of unsuccessful attempts to breed, surely enough is enough."
The zoo defended its attempts at breeding pandas as important to the worldwide conservation effort.
Iain Valentine, director of giant pandas for The Royal Zoological Society of Scotland, said: "It is simply incorrect and misleading to view the management of captive and wild populations of giant pandas separately.
"The global effort to save the species is part of one overarching conservation programme with flow between the two elements.
"We continue to believe that it is important biologically for Tian Tian, a female in her prime, to breed and reproduce and, if science can lend a hand, then it should.
"Our keepers would simply never do anything that would cause any suffering to any animals in their care.
"There is also every hope, based on where we currently are as a global collective, that the offspring of Tian Tian and Yang Guang will at some point go back into the wild."
The two giant pandas arrived in Scotland in December 2011 and are being rented by Edinburgh Zoo from the Chinese government for a decade for an annual fee of about £600,000.
Tian Tian had previously given birth to twins in China but all attempts to produce a cub at Edinburgh Zoo have failed.

What is the summary of the provided article? | The charity co-founder was accused of human trafficking and sexually abusing children, but human rights groups called the charges bogus.
Supporters cheered as Ms Hijazi, 30, her husband and six others were found not guilty.
The high-profile case caused concern in Washington at the highest levels of the Obama and Trump administrations.
Activists who have been campaigning for the group's release said the arrests were symptomatic of Egypt's crackdown on civil society.
The prosecution claimed Ms Hijazi and her colleagues had abused their positions while working with Cairo street children.
During the trial, the defence argued that evidence had been tampered with.
The defendants sang as they left the courthouse for a prison vehicle, which was waiting to take them to their final days in detention, according to news agency AFP.
The verdict came less than two weeks after Egyptian President Abdul Fattah al-Sisi met US President Donald Trump in Washington.

Write a brief summary of the provided content. | Nigerians spent $1bn (£690m) on foreign medical trips in 2013, most of which was unnecessary, said Dr Osahon Enabulele.
Nigerian politicians were mostly treated by Nigerian doctors in the UK, he added.
Mr Buhari flew to London on Monday to be treated for an ear infection.
It is unclear where the 73-year-old would be treated for what his office described as a "persistent" infection.
Dr Enabulele, vice-president of the Commonwealth Medical Association, said it was a "national shame" that Mr Buhari went to the UK for treatment when Nigeria had more than 250 ear, nose and throat (ENT) specialists, as well as a National Ear Centre.
Mr Buhari should lead by example by using Nigerian doctors and facilities, and ensure government officials do not go abroad on "frivolous" medical trips, he added.
The UK had more than 3,000 Nigerian-trained doctors, and the US more than 5,000, Dr Enabule said, accusing the government of failing to address the brain drain by improving working conditions and health centres.
Mr Buhari, in a speech delivered on his behalf to the Nigeria Medical Association in April, said the government's hard-earned cash would not be spent on treating officials overseas, especially when Nigeria had the expertise.

Summarize the information in the following section. | Clickbait articles tend to carry intriguing headlines which suggest there is more to the story than there actually is.
They are famous for employing alluring phrases such as "you'll never guess what happened next" in order to drive web traffic.
Facebook says it can now automatically suppress these stories.
It says it has built a technology that scans for tell-tale signs of clickbait headlines on its news feed section - phrases such as "you'll never guess why" and "his response was priceless".
This scanning technology was created by a team at Facebook who manually reviewed "thousands of headlines" to put together a list of commonly identifiable clickbait traits.
Headlines which are flagged for using such phrasing will be automatically diminished in prominence on Facebook's news feed, the company said.
"We're making an update to News Feed ranking to further reduce clickbait headlines in the coming weeks," read a post on Facebook's newswire.
"With this update, people will see fewer clickbait stories and more of the stories they want to see higher up in their feeds."
The National Union of Journalists (NUJ) has welcomed the decision.
Martin Shipton, chairman of the NUJ's Trinity Mirror group chapel, previously claimed that the culture of clickbait and setting traffic targets "could encourage reporters to sensationalise stories, to trivialise the news and make news out of trivia and to give up on more challenging, public interest journalism that takes time to research and deliver".
In January, the journalists' website Press Gazette revealed in a survey of about 700 journalists that nearly a third expressed concerns over the quality of online journalism.
Facebook previously attempted to diminish clickbait though another means - by timing how long users remained on an external website after clicking on a headline. But it said that this process wasn't accurate enough.
It said it now categorises headlines as clickbait if they withhold information required to understand what the content of the article is and also if they exaggerate the article to create misleading expectations
"People have told us they like seeing authentic stories the most," the company added.
Flanagan, 22, has not played this season after tearing his anterior cruciate knee ligament in April.
But, playing for the Saddlers' development squad at Morecambe on Wednesday, he dislocated his shoulder.
"He's seeing a specialist, as he's done it before," said boss Jon Whitney.
"It's a bit of a dampener, but he's in good spirits as at least he wasn't his knee. When I saw him go down, I thought maybe it was his knee. But this might be a mixed blessing because it now gives him a bit longer with his knee.
"He won't be back this season but he'll still be fit and contracted for next season, and it gives him the chance to come back even stronger."
Flanagan, who has made 35 appearances for the Saddlers, signed a new contract in December, tying him to the League One club until June 2018.
On a more positive note for Walsall, on-loan defender Jason McCarthy has been voted League One player of the month for January.
The 21-year-old Southampton centre-back has made 30 league appearances, scoring five times.
He has been a key part of a Walsall side who have now lost just once in nine games under Whitney to move up to 11th, within four points of the play-offs.
Having gone five games unbeaten with an unchanged line-up, Saturday's 2-1 victory over Northampton Town earned them a third straight home win for the first time since December 2015. | Facebook has intensified its crackdown on so-called clickbait news that appears on the social network.

What is the summary of the following article? | "I thought, 'I've done 200 jobs, they finish you go onto the next one', so I'm not going to get sentimental about the job finishing."
But Jim Carter, aka Carson the butler, found shooting his final scene on Downton Abbey was not like any other job.
"It came to an end and they said 'that's it for the servants thank you very much' and I thought someone should say something to the crew.
"I looked up and saw all their knackered faces and they work so hard and I thought 'oh my I'm really going to miss them' and I went…I filled up completely and hopelessly."
And he wasn't the only one brought to tears.
"Phyllis Logan (Mrs Hughes) was on the floor sobbing, Lesley (Nicol - Mrs Patmore) and Sophie (McShera - Daisy) were hopeless," he says.
"I turned round and Lee the rigger, a great big guy who carries scaffolding around for a living had tears pouring down, Duncan the sound guy, Bobby the grip were all crying."
After six years of filming the cast and crew of the hit ITV show have become very close.
Michelle Dockery, who plays Lady Mary, and Laura Carmichael, who plays Lady Edith, even holiday together. They are planning on a girls' holiday together now filming has ended.
"It would be nice to have a break together and it would be nice to watch the first one (episode) together," says Dockery.
"I hope at some point we'll all watch an episode together but it's so difficult because everyone's so busy," says Carmichael.
The worldwide success of the show means the job offers have flooded in for the cast.
Joanne Froggat, who plays ladies maid Anna Bates, only had a weekend off after the end of filming on Downton before starting work on a new ITV drama Dark Angel, where she plays the Victorian poisoner Mary Ann Cotton.
She jokes the cast are so fond of each other they'd be happy to spend their retirement on Downton Abbey-themed cruises.
"There was a Downton-themed cruise a few years ago - I don't know if it was an official one but we'll be like 'we just want to hang out together again we'll do a cruise'."
Froggat has won a Golden Globe for her performance and is nominated for an Emmy this year.
"It's just been like a fairytale. But we are a true ensemble," she says.
"The success in America has been a huge deal for all of us."
"It's all been mad," says Sophie McShera, who plays kitchen maid Daisy. She recently won a role playing an ugly sister in Kenneth Brannagh's live action Cinderella.
"I would never have been in the position to even go up for that Disney film if I hadn't been in Downton - it's changed everything."
Her "telly mummy" Lesley Nicol, who plays Mrs Patmore, is very proud.
"I've said to her this means you are known by all the casting directors, and that's without price for someone of her age."
Nicol tears up when asked whether she'll miss their on-screen partnership.
She is debating her own offers - one is to sing at the Royal Albert Hall in a charity concert in December.
"I have done musicals but the idea of singing in a place like that when I'm not a singer... is a bit wonderful.
"I'll be so nervous I'll be upside down in the toilet but I think I've got to do it."
"It certainly opened up opportunities for all of us," says Hugh Bonneville, who plays the Earl of Grantham and who starred in the Paddington film.
"I obviously just play the same character whatever I'm doing I just wear different clothes. But I wouldn't have had the opportunity to meet Paddington without Downton.
"I'm going to try not to do something pre-war for 18 months so I can get away from these stiff collars and the rash they bring.
"I'm not going to miss our lovely sound man Duncan grappling with my chest hair every morning with his microphone. I'm not going to miss his hand up my shirt."
Elizabeth McGovern who plays his wife Cora, Countess of Grantham, is planning a musical future - she is going into the recording studio with her band Sadie and the Hotheads.
But some of the offers have been a bit more unusual says Jim Carter.
"Some people have charmingly and bizarrely asked me if I'd like to go to the wedding of their son or daughter and be a butler and I've rather charmingly said I'd rather lose my left leg than do that."
However, one offer he is happy to accept post Downton is to make a documentary for ITV where he gets to interview Sir Paul McCartney and Roger Daltry - something he says he would never have been offered in the past.
As for fans' expectations for the final series?
"It resolves in a way that is very appropriate to the show," says Bonneville.
"As with life some stories are finished and some are left open," something that McGovern agrees with.
"I really felt satisfied by it and I think the audience that has been faithful to it for these number of years will feel satisfied," she says.
As for Dame Maggie Smith, a fan favourite in her role of Violet, Dowager Countess of Grantham, she has her own plans now filming is over.
"I'm going to be lying down. I believe for quite some time," she says.
"The other thing I will be doing is watching it. I will get the box set and have a good look.
"I certainly haven't watched anything that I've done. I have seen some of it, but I want to sit down and look at it all."

Summarize the information in the following document. | The GMB said the refusal by a security company to sign a union agreement was against Labour's rules.
It is calling on the party to find an alternative contractor for next month's event to avoid it being "scuppered".
The company, Showsec, said it was "not anti-unions in any way" and Labour sources said they were confident the conference would go ahead as planned.
But a Labour spokesman said: "We do not comment on commercial arrangements."
The BBC understands the party has not yet signed a contract with a security provider for the conference, which begins on 25 September.
But it has rejected newspaper claims the Home Office could shut down the four-day event, at Liverpool's Arena and Conference Centre, if Labour fails to sort out its own security, with Labour sources saying the conference is a "private event".
Labour approached Showsec after the party's National Executive Committee voted last year to boycott G4S, which has provided security at party political conferences in the UK for some years.
It was prompted by claims by the Palestine Solidarity Campaign that G4S was linked to "Israeli prisons which hold Palestinian political prisoners from occupied Palestinian territory inside Israel".
The UK's main party conferences are held inside secure zones, with airport-style security scanners to screen the thousands of attendees.
Three security companies are reported to have declined a contract with Labour before it invited Showsec to tender.
Roger Jenkins, GMB national officer for the security industry, said: "This is by no means sorted.
"We have repeatedly asked Showsec to agree to sign up to a standard recognition agreement that recognises GMB to negotiate pay and conditions, seeing its workers treated with the dignity and respect they deserve.
"The clock is ticking fast ahead of next month's conference and the company's continued refusal to recognise GMB is intolerable."
He added: "If Showsec continues to show such disregard for unions then it has proven itself totally unsuited to the task of providing security for this event - and the Labour Party leadership must immediately put an alternative in place to avoid the conference being scuppered."
Mr Jenkins also told The Guardian Labour rules stipulated that "any service provider they use have to have a recognition agreement with a trade union".
In a statement, Showsec said: "We were invited to tender for the security provision at the Labour Party conference, but at no point were we advised that signing a recognition agreement with the GMB Union was a stipulation of that tender.
"Showsec are not in a position to sign this recognition agreement due to corporate governance guidance, but contrary to some reports, we would like to make it clear that the company are not anti-unions in any way.
"We have, in fact, had a partnership agreement in place with GMB Union since 2004, but following discussions with the union in an attempt to find a resolution, they have advised us that this is no longer fit-for-purpose.
"We are disappointed that we presently find ourselves in this position."
The court was responding to litigation seeking daily hearings in a long-running case about the disputed site in the northern town of Ayodhya.
Hindu mobs destroyed a 16th Century mosque at the site in 1992, sparking riots that killed nearly 2,000 people.
Hindus want a temple to be built at the site, while Muslims want a new mosque.
Hindus claim the mosque was the birthplace of one of their most revered deities, Lord Ram, and that it was built after the destruction of a Hindu temple by a Muslim invader in the 16th Century.
Chief Justice JS Khehar said "such sensitive matters" needed to be resolved through negotiations. He also offered to act as a mediator between the two parties.
The court has been sporadically hearing the case since 2011 after setting aside a lower court's order which in a 8,500-page judgement said that two-thirds of the disputed site should be allocated to Hindu groups, with the remainder going to Muslims.
The Allahabad High Court's ruling in September 2010 addressed three major issues. It said the disputed spot was the Hindu God Ram's birthplace, that the mosque had been built after the demolition of a temple and that it was not built in accordance with the tenets of Islam.
For the first time in a judicial ruling, it also said that the disputed site was the birthplace of the Hindu god.
But both parties appealed against the order in the Supreme Court.

More than 30 people were also arrested in Romania with officers seizing eight properties and five million euros.

It has been co-operating with law enforcement since May 2015 when Fifa members were arrested in Zurich.
"We have now completed that [22-month] investigation and handed the evidence over to the authorities," said Fifa president Gianni Infantino.
Criminal investigations are ongoing.
Fifa says reports of more than 1,300 pages were produced after the review of more than 2.5m documents and interviews with "key witnesses". There were also more than 20,000 pages of exhibits. These were all shared with the Swiss authorities, according to the governing body.
Infantino said the investigation was carried out to "hold wrongdoers within football accountable and co-operate with the authorities".
He added: "The authorities will continue to pursue those who enriched themselves."
It added that from its findings it will make changes to its internal departments which will be revealed at the end of April.
In May 2015, Swiss authorities raided a Zurich hotel and arrested seven people who were among 14 indicted on corruption charges in an inquiry led by the United States Department of Justice.
In December that year, 16 more officials were charged following the arrest of two Fifa vice-presidents in at the same hotel in Zurich.

Fifa's internal inquiry may be at an end, but questions persist as to the level and depth of corruption that allegedly took place over many years.
The review, led by Fifa's lawyers, was designed to assure the US Department of Justice that the governing body was a co-operative partner in unearthing the grubby truth.
The results have now been passed to the Swiss Attorney General and will make their way to Washington DC from there.
But the wheels of justice grind slowly. It may be many years before any subsequent charges are brought or cases concluded.
In the meantime, criminal investigations continue into a number of individuals along with the bidding process for the 2018 and 2022 World Cup tournaments.

Write a summary for the following excerpt. | The 2014 fashion show photo was shared by fans with the comment: "Rihanna looks like she scams rich white men and Lupita is the computer smart best friend that helps plan the scams".
It caught the attention of Oscar winner Nyong'o a few days ago and now Rihanna has tweeted she is up for it too.
Fans have gone crazy for the idea.
Lupita saw the tweet a few days ago and posted "I'm down if you are @Rihanna".
More than 200,000 liked the tweet and earlier today Rihanna replied saying "I'm in Pit'z" - her nickname for the Star Wars actress.
Another 99,000 liked that tweet and now the two stars had said yes Twitter went into a meltdown with ideas about the film.
One fan then tweeted it over to Selma director Ava Duvernay saying she should direct it and Duvernay loved the idea.
"Lights set. Camera's up. Ready to call action for these #queens," she tweeted back.
It seems Rihanna didn't want to let go of the idea as she retweeted a fan's idea to get Issa Rae, the creator and executive producer of Insecure, on board.

Can you provide a summary of this content? | Mr Maduro said he hoped to be able to address the opposition-controlled National Assembly next year.
Last week the assembly declared that he had in effect abandoned his post by mismanaging the economy.
Mr Maduro said he was fulfilling his daily duties.
After the National Assembly's decision, the Supreme Court ruled that Mr Maduro was allowed to deliver his annual report to the judges.
"It is public knowledge that I am fully exercising my constitutional duties day after day," said Mr Maduro at the beginning of his speech, which was broadcast on national television.
Opposition leader Henrique Capriles tweeted that Mr Maduro's address in the Supreme Court breached the constitution and confirmed that he was "a costly error in our history".
Mr Capriles was defeated by Mr Maduro in the 2013 presidential elections. He is now governor of Miranda state.
Mr Maduro said that he remained "committed to dialogue and to harmonious, balanced, constitutional solutions".
During his address, he admitted that Venezuela's economic model based on oil exports had "become unviable" because of a sharp drop in global prices.
Revenue from oil exports dropped from $48bn (£39.4bn) in 2008 to $5.3bn (£4.3bn) in 2016.
Mr Maduro said he was postponing until 20 February the decision to withdraw from circulation the country's most common banknote, the 100 bolivars.
He first announced that the note would cease to be legal tender on 15 December, which led to chaos and long queues outside bank branches.
The measure has been already delayed several times.
New higher denomination notes will begin circulating later on Monday, Mr Maduro said.
President Maduro's critics say he and his predecessor, Hugo Chavez, are to blame for the sky-rocketing inflation and chronic shortages of basic goods the country is experiencing.
Mr Maduro in turn blames Venezuela's business elite, accusing it of sabotaging the country's economy and conspiring with "imperialist forces" in the United States to force him from office.

Can you summarize this passage? | The University of Nottingham appealed to the public for help in finding Jeremy, who was found in London, another "lefty" to mate with.
As a result of the plea, the mollusc has been matched to another in Ipswich and one that has escaped "the pot" at a snail farm in Majorca.
Jeremy has been meeting his new suitor in Suffolk.
Dr Angus Davison, from the university's school of life sciences, made his appeal in October to find another snail with an anticlockwise spiralling shell.
"We've got very lucky," he said.
"In the end, we found not one but two other rare lefty snails, one in Suffolk and another in Tomeu in Spain.
"Both of the finders must have very keen eyes in spotting what is a very rare condition."
Jade Sanchez Melton, a snail lover from Suffolk, who found her "lefty" snail crawling up a tree, said: "There were good signs last night of some potential flirting.
"I am going to be fascinated to see whether breeding these two snails will result in more lefties."
The two snails will be observed for two weeks to see whether they mate.
Signs of a "pairing" will be the presence of "love darts" - sharp spikes made of calcium which the snails stab into each other's bodies during the mating process.
There is a serious scientific aim to Dr Davison's work and he recently discovered a gene that determines whether a snail's shell twists in a clockwise or anti-clockwise direction.
He said the same gene affects body asymmetry in other animals, possibly including humans, which could help understand how organs are placed in the body. | Two potential mates have been found for a "one in a million" garden snail with a left-spiralling shell. |

"We have stated from the off that we want to give every player a start in the first three games and Wednesday is an opportunity for this set of players to show what they can do in a Lions jersey," head coach Warren Gatland said.
"We are expecting a big crowd at Eden Park. It will be the first of three matches there for us and we know the atmosphere will be outstanding. We are hoping for some good weather and are expecting a tough, fast and open game of rugby.
"We created some good opportunities against the Barbarians but didn't see them through and that is something we want to improve on."

Umaga comes up against the Lions for the first time since 2005, when as a player he led the All Blacks to a 3-0 series whitewash.
However his involvement was controversial - he and hooker Keven Mealamu were guilty of a dangerous tackle in the first Test which ruled Lions captain Brian O'Driscoll out of the tour with a dislocated shoulder.
"It's not about that time now, that was 12 years ago," Umaga said.
"If people can't put that behind them then I suppose they never will. It's about this group now, and their time against the Lions, and the memories they make. Hopefully they are positive ones."

Please summarize the given passage. | The body of Dean George, aged 40, was found on Sunday at about 16:35 BST.
A spokesman for HMP Swansea said staff attempted CPR and an ambulance was called, but the prisoner was pronounced dead.
"As with all deaths in custody there will be an investigation by the independent prisons and probation ombudsman," the spokesman added.
The 32-year-old was driving home at about 22:30 on Sunday when she was forced to stop by a vehicle blocking the B6359 near Lilliesleaf.
There were two men at the scene and one of them opened her car door and struck her, leaving her bleeding.
They tried to drag her from the car but she managed to escape to her mother's farm nearby.
She believes the men wanted to steal her vintage Ford Cortina.
Police are attempting to gather both DNA and fingerprints from the car.
They said the attacker, who was wearing a white or light grey hoodie, spoke with a Borders or Edinburgh accent.
They have appealed for any witnesses who were on the B6359 on Sunday night to contact them.
A Police Scotland spokesman said: "A 32-year-old woman was driving home when a parked vehicle on the roadway forced her to come to a stop.
"At this time she was punched to the face by a male suspect before driving off and reporting the matter to police.
"Inquiries to establish the full circumstances are ongoing and anyone with information is asked to come forward."
PC James Patrick had said crime figures were manipulated and sexual offences were being under-reported by 22-25%.
In a blog, PC Patrick said resigning had not been an "easy decision".
The officer had previously faced gross misconduct proceedings, but these were downgraded after an outside force investigated the case.
In the statement on his blog, PC Patrick said that his resignation had arisen directly from his treatment "as a result of making disclosures in good faith and in the public interest".
He added: "My experience led me to see just how flawed the whistle-blowing system is, how it fails, but also to firmly believe that no police officer should normally resign or retire while subject to any misconduct investigation; but the circumstances are such that I have no choice.
"It is impossible for me to see how I could ever trust the MPS [Metropolitan Police Service] again, that is something which is permanently destroyed.
"I have held out for as long as I can but enough is enough: the camel's back has been broken with a sledgehammer."
PC Patrick claimed that throughout the misconduct process the Met Police had denied that there were any senior level discussions about him.
However, he said, he made the decision to resign after it was discovered that "significant material does indeed exist".
In February, the Metropolitan Police said the hearing would now be a "formal meeting, chaired by an inspector as per national guidelines".
The stiffest punishment PC Patrick faced was a written warning for 18 months.
PC Patrick told MPs on the Public Administration Select Committee (PASC) that massaging figures to hit performance targets had become "an ingrained part of policing culture".
He claimed that serious offences including rape and child sex abuse were being recorded as "crime-related incidents" or "no crimes" and he said he had found disparities between the number of reported burglaries and those finally recorded.
Met Commissioner Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe has previously said there was a "truth" to PC Patrick's allegations.

Provide a concise summary of this excerpt. | Edge Hill University students Owen Lambert and Travis Frain, were hit as a car drove along the pavement on Westminster Bridge as the attack began.
Mr Frain is having surgery to his leg, the university said.
University Pro Vice Chancellor Lynda Brady said of the remaining 12 students, three were back home and nine others were returning.
They were part of a group of 13 students - with a lecturer - on a visit to the Houses of Parliament.
Mr Lambert, 18, from Morecambe, is understood to have required stitches to a head wound. Two other students needed treatment for lesser injuries.
Quoted in the Lancaster Guardian, Mr Lambert said he was "battered and bruised, but doing fine".
He also thanked police and hospital staff "for helping me through this ordeal".
Dr John Cater, vice chancellor of the university, told BBC North West Tonight the students were on the first day of a two-day visit to London. They had been inside the House of Commons watching Prime Minister's Questions two hours before the attack.
He added: "Our assumption is that they were either knocked over by other people or struck by the vehicle.

Nonetheless, he said they were "very close" to an agreement.
Informal talks are expected to continue ahead of the group's 15 June meeting.
The Brussels-based meeting was aimed at deciding whether Greece had done enough to receive a €7.5bn (£6.4bn; $8.3bn) loan plus debt relief.
The cash is vital for Greece to avoid defaulting on a debt repayment due in July.
To secure the funds, the country has had to enact a series of economic reforms.
The International Monetary Fund and Germany are reported to have disagreed over how to help ease the country's debts once its rescue programme ends next year.
The IMF's participation in Greece's latest bailout hinges on resolving this issue.
"The feeling was.... more work was needed to be able to have that kind of clarity that the financial markets understood and the Greek people understood (of) what to expect at the end of the programme period in terms of debt relief," Greek Finance Minister Euclid Tsakalotos said.

Give a brief summary of the provided passage. | Caroline Starmer, 28, appeared at Leicester Crown Court, where she pleaded guilty to a charge of intent to pervert the course of justice.
Starmer, of Marshall Street, Leicester, had claimed her nine-month-old daughter was grabbed from her breast.
She was warned she could be jailed when sentenced in December.
In a Facebook post, she claimed the guard took hold of her daughter and marched off towards the exit of the Humberstone Gate store in Leicester on 13 July.
The story was widely reported in the media and in interviews she claimed a male security guard grabbed the child from her breast.
In the post, she said she picked a quiet spot in Primark to feed her daughter but was then challenged by a security guard who asked her to leave.
"I stood my ground and stated my rights, that I can legally feed where I want," she wrote.
"Just for the security officer to physically remove my daughter from my breast and walk down the store with her, saying if I wanted my daughter, then I was to come and get her."
Leicestershire Police investigated her claims but she was charged with intent to pervert the course of justice.
Primark initially said it would investigate the allegation but after viewing in-store CCTV footage denied the incident had taken place.
In a statement after Starmer's appearance at court, the firm said: "The company wishes to thank its staff for their patience and understanding through this process."
It added that breastfeeding mothers were always welcome in Primark.
The hosts of the Facebook page on which Starmer made her original claim, Free to Feed, apologised to Primark and said there were "no winners here".
"What possesses people to fabricate lies on this level and drag everyone else down with them, will always be a mystery to us," the group said.
"Our good nature and intent was completely abused by someone that we believed in good faith, and wanted to help."
The case was adjourned until 3 December for reports to be prepared.

Baxter Reid, 26, had tried to enter Canada for a holiday just before his US visa expired at midnight on 23 April.
Relatives said Mr Reid was held up by Canadian officials before being sent back to the US, by which time his visa was invalid.
He was released from custody on Wednesday and will not be deported, according to his brother, Alex Reid.
"He's free to leave of his own accord," Alex Reid told the BBC, adding that his brother would be allowed to return.
"He's not angry, he's not upset, he doesn't hold grudges. He's just happy."
Mr Reid was with his American girlfriend, Heather Kancso, when he was handcuffed at the border in upstate New York.
According to his family, Mr Reid was on a visa that required him to leave the country before six months elapsed. He had planned to return to the US after visiting Canada.
It was not clear why Mr Reid had been turned away by Canada, his brother said.
"He's just a typical Australian tourist just travelling America with his girlfriend," Alex Reid said.

Can you provide a brief summary for this document? | Adam Daly received fetoscoptic surgery in Germany that was funded by the Belfast Health and Social Care Trust.
It is only the second time the surgery has been performed on an unborn child from Northern Ireland.
Adam's parents Paula and Aidan, from County Antrim, said they are amazed by how he has reacted to the surgery.
Speaking to the BBC at their Lisburn home, they said Adam has been able to move his legs.
While the procedure is considered extremely risky, they are confident they gave their son the best start in life.
"I keep saying to him in our private moments that he is going to change the world," Mr Daly said.
"I just want him to grow up fit and healthy and have as many opportunities as any child would have.
"Whatever direction he wants to take, we'll be there to support him, and I am looking forward to be able to say to him later that at this age we did everything we could for him."
Adam's condition emerged during the 20-week scan.
Mrs Daly said the couple had no idea they would receive the news of their son's condition.
"When we went for the scan we were both thinking that the biggest decision was finding out about the gender and if we tell family and friends," she said.
"But the sonographer took her time looking and measuring things, and then I knew something wasn't quite right.
"The words spina bifida were familiar but I knew nothing about it."
Spina bifida literally means split spine, and it manifests itself as a hole at the bottom of the baby's spine.
That means the spinal cord does not form properly and may also be damaged.
The central nervous system and spine develops between the 14th and 23rd day after conception.
Spina bifida occurs when the neural tube fails to close correctly.
The vertebrae also fail to close in complete rings around the affected portion of the spinal cord.
The length of the lesion will determine the child's health complications, including mobility, fluid on the brain and bladder problems.
Extreme cases can result in paralysis.
The family said they are keen to tell their story as they want other couples to be aware they have a choice to have surgery before the baby is born.
The procedure is only available in the United States and parts of Europe.
Mrs Daly said the decision to go ahead with the three-hour operation was "the biggest decision we have ever had to make".
"The thought of having to do such a huge operation and in a different country with the risk of further complications travelling home was scary, especially as we have another child and we had to think of her," she added.
The hole in the spine is sealed by keyhole surgery and the impact of the surgery is still visible after birth.
Normally in Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK, the lesion at the base of the spine is closed by neurosurgeons after the baby is born.
That means the baby is liable to have further health complications.
On Tuesday, an international conference in Belfast will discuss the merits of fetoscopic surgery in babies diagnosed with spina bifida and the Daly family will tell their story to an audience at Queen's University.
It is hoped that England will be added to the list of countries that are able to perform the surgery. | The parents of a baby with spina bifida have said they hope that pioneering surgery he received while still in the womb will help him to walk. |
Can you summarize the following paragraph? | Cafe owner Lisa White, 56, from Broadstairs, claimed she needed an oxygen mask to breathe, and was paid more than £150,000 in benefits.
However, investigators obtained undercover footage of her working in the cafe, and a video of her dancing.
She admitted fraud and was jailed at Inner London Crown Court on Thursday.
White told Greenwich Borough Council she was living in a council home in Eltham, south east London, with her mother.
The council raised concerns after irregularities were found in payments to her carer.
Her husband, Andrew White, 56, was given a nine-month suspended prison sentence for his part in the fraud.
Mr White had given his address as being in Broadstairs while caring for his wife, who was living in the council's property in London.
Mrs White had been receiving direct debit payments of £135 per week from Greenwich council, but bank statements showed the amounts being paid to her husband and carer were lower, the council said.
She told Greenwich council the Eltham property was her only home, but records showed her name was linked to two properties in Broadstairs as well as a cafe and bandstand kiosk.
A council spokesman said: "She stated that she required care and assistance on a daily basis; that she could not dress herself without assistance; was unable to lift kitchen items such as pots and pans; required the assistance of oxygen tanks to regulate her breathing and had to use a walking stick indoors and a wheelchair outdoors in order to assist her mobility."
Fraud investigators filmed her running her business including serving customers and carrying heavy supplies, visiting a shopping centre, and dancing, the London authority said.
Her husband admitted one charge of fraud and one under the Proceeds of Crime Act.
Recycling firm Viridor said its energy recovery facility (ERF) near Dunbar will incinerate more than 300,000 tonnes of waste a year, avoiding the need for landfill.
The energy produced will be able to power almost 40,000 homes all year round.
The facility is due for completion in 2017.
According to Viridor, at least 350 jobs will be supported during construction.
A further 55 full-time jobs will be created once the plant is operating.
Viridor chief executive Ian McAulay said: "Viridor is at the forefront of helping Scotland achieve its internationally ambitious target to be a zero waste nation.
"Part of a £357m Scottish recycling and energy investment programme committed within the last 18 months, this project will be transforming waste that would otherwise have been consigned to landfill into vital renewable energy for 39,000 Scottish homes."
The project has attracted criticism from some environmentalists, who have claimed that emissions from the facility could be toxic.
Reacting to the start of construction work, Environment Secretary Richard Lochhead said: "We have seen a significant, sustained decrease in the amount of waste being sent to landfill - falling from 7.4 million tonnes in 2007 to 4.5 million tonnes in 2012.
"While Scotland is focused on moving towards a more circular economy, where goods are kept in high value use for as long as possible, there will still be a role for energy recovery for the limited amount of waste that cannot be prevented, reused or recycled."
Stallone says Demolition Man made at least $125m at the box office, and under his deal with the studio, he is entitled to at least 15% of that.
His lawsuit says "motion picture studios are notoriously greedy" and Warner Bros "sat on the money owed" for years "without any justification".
Warner Bros has not commented on the legal action.
Stallone's legal papers say his representatives raised the issue of owed money with Warner Bros in 2014 but were told by the film company that they didn't have to pay him anything because Demolition Man had lost $66.9m.
He queried this, and in April 2015 the studio sent Stallone a cheque for $2.8m.
The lawsuit alleges: "WB just sat on the money owed to [Stallone's company] Rogue Marble for years and told itself, without any justification, that Rogue Marble was not owed any profits."
In the lawsuit, which was filed at Los Angeles Superior Court, the star is seeking a full accounting of the film's proceeds, in addition to interest and damages.
The legal action also seeks "an end to this practice for all talent who expect to be paid by WB for the fruits of their labour".

She told told a jury at Oxford Crown Court she did it so that she would not be discharged from hospital.
Ms Knight also denies causing grievous bodily harm with intent.
She told the court she wanted her mother to remain cared for and not be sent home.
She said: "I felt terrible because I knew I was going to make mum unwell.
"It was a stupid, stupid, thing to do. If I could go back and change it, I would."
She admitted she told a series of lies to police in January when she was questioned.
The court heard she had a forged a prescription for insulin, which she had collected at a Sainsbury's store in Banbury.
When asked by defence barrister Simon Mayo QC why she had insisted to officers she had not injected her mother, she said: "I realised it was serious. I was ashamed of what I had done."
Prosecutor John Price QC claimed she had intended to administer a lethal dose to Ms Robson before leaving the Horton.
He asked: "Why did you inject your mother with a substance which for all you knew could kill her within five minutes and do nothing for an hour and twenty minutes?"
She replied: "I never intended my mother to die."
Ms Knight also told the court she had attempted suicide in 2006 by injecting herself with insulin.
Ms Robson died in September but the jury was told earlier in the trial that her death was not relevant to the case and had no bearing on the issues they had to consider.

Please give a summary of the document below. | It is the idea of local artist Michele Curtis who plans to first stage an exhibition featuring the people she calls the Seven Saints of St Pauls.
Portraits include the St Pauls Carnival founders and those who led the 1963 Bristol bus boycott.
Ms Curtis said the idea was to celebrate their legacy.
"Black history in Bristol stretches far beyond its roots in the slave trade, although we are constantly reminded of the merchants and slave owners of Bristol through the prominent naming of streets, (Guinea Street) buildings (Colston Tower) and statues (Edward Colston)," she said.
The approaching 50th anniversary of the St Pauls Carnival in 2018 inspired Ms Curtis to come up with the idea.
"St Pauls has such a bad reputation - I want to change the perception that nobody and nothing good has come out of here," said Ms Curtis.
Positive initial discussions have been held with Bristol City Council and housing associations to paint the murals on houses or prominent buildings along the route of the carnival procession.
"Having these murals up in the air is a conversation with your child on the way to school - it's knowledge, history, fun," said Ms Curtis.
"People will ask who they are and why their portrait is on the wall."

Write a brief summary of the document. | The new installation will commemorate 40 soldiers from Tidworth, Wiltshire, who have died in battle since 1914.
Chris Franklin, town mayor, said the memorial committee's decision to "omit the names" seemed to be "purely based on it being too much of a risk".
But committee member Daz Stephenson said it wants the town council to complete the research on the soldiers.
Despite being a garrison town, Tidworth has never had an official war memorial to commemorate those who lost their lives since World War One.
"We've done an awful lot of work looking into the names but there's a lot of obscurity and we don't want to get it wrong," said Mr Stephenson.
"We would prefer to hand over the memorial next year and leave it up to the town council to do that research and make the decision to put the names on or not."

Arfon MP Hywel Williams has now been appointed to the role.
The agreement was announced at a regional conference in the Pakistani capital Islamabad.
Indian Foreign Minister Sushma Swaraj said the foreign secretaries of both countries would meet to set an agenda for meetings on "peace and security".
Talks are to include Kashmir, the spark for two of the rivals' wars since independence from Britain in 1947.
The region, claimed by both countries in its entirety, has been a flashpoint for more than 60 years.
"The foreign secretaries of both countries will meet and chart out the agenda for the meetings," Ms Swaraj told reporters after meeting her counterpart, Sartaj Aziz.
Pakistan is said to have assured the Indian side that it is taking steps to expedite the early conclusion of trials of those accused of involvement in the Mumbai attacks of 2009, the BBC's Shahzeb Jillani in Pakistan reports.
Ms Swaraj's visit came in the aftermath of a dramatic rise - and then a rather sudden easing - in tensions between the two nuclear-armed rivals.
Pakistan wants to discuss Kashmir, claimed by both countries in its entirety.
India wants Pakistan to allow greater commercial interaction, liberalise visa regimes, grant transit rights to traders between Delhi and Kabul, and stamp out militant groups which it believes Pakistan has fostered to destabilise Kashmir and Afghanistan.
This is a complex situation, and talks in the past have often broken down, underlining a trust deficit on both sides.
A measure of success will be if they can draw up a road-map for more substantive talks in the near future - and then make progress on the many long-running issues which divide them.
Members approved a motion at the party conference urging the £18bn scheme, the first in a generation, to be scrapped.
Duncan Brack told members Hinkley was "spectacularly poor value for money" and breached party policy on subsidies.
But ex-energy secretary Ed Davey, who helped negotiate the original deal during the coalition, said nuclear had a role to play in a low-carbon economy.
Prime Minister Theresa May last week gave the final go-ahead to a new nuclear plant in Somerset - which would be financed by the French and Chinese governments - after imposing "significant new safeguards" to protect national security.
But critics say the proposed Hinkley Point C plant still represents a bad deal for taxpayers and the technology being proposed is unproven.
During an emergency debate on the issue in Brighton, Mr Brack - a former member of the party's powerful Federal Policy Committee - said the Lib Dems' existing policy was to oppose any future nuclear generation in receipt of public subsidies and Hinkley would get at least £2bn in government loan guarantees.
"We are against subsidy for nuclear and Hinkley is subsidy," he said. "It does not deserve subsidy. It is spectacularly poor value for money."
Renewable energy offered better value for money, Mr Brack said, with the cost of solar and offshore wind set to "plummet" by the time Hinkley was eventually built.
"The argument you need nuclear for baseload electricity is a total fallacy," he added.
"Nuclear stations are not on all the time. They have faults, they go off-line which means you have to build an equivalent amount of back-up to support them."
But Mr Davey, who helped negotiate the "strike price" agreement determining how much the UK would pay for energy generated by Hinkley during the Tory-Lib Dem coalition, said the UK should not be dismissing any sources of low-carbon energy.
Urging members to vote against the motion, he said any current forecasts about the ultimate cost of the deal were a "mug's game" as people would need to know what the cost of energy and carbon would be between 2025 and 2060.
"We should not be taking nuclear off the table because of the risks posed to our children and their children by climate change," he said.

Provide a brief summary of this section. | The reservoirs in Walthamstow provide water to millions of households but will also become a nature reserve and home for wildlife.
The project was given the go-ahead after receiving a £4.4m boost from the Heritage Lottery Fund.
Extra funding has come from Waltham Forest Council and Thames Water.
Dr Tom Tew, a trustee for the Heritage Lottery Fund and former chief scientist at Natural England, said: "High-quality green space is at a premium in our cities, and once completed this wetland area will provide the perfect nature spot for millions of Londoners to relax and enjoy."
The 2013 State of Nature report found that 57% of freshwater and wetland species such as the water vole have declined over the last 50 years due to water pollution, climate change and diseases spreading from non-native species.
At 200 hectares the nature reserve will be bigger than many of Londoner's green spaces, including Richmond Park and Hampstead Heath.
The project will be managed between Thames Water, which handles the reservoirs, and the London Wildlife Trust, which will manage the site once work is completed.
Waltham Forest Council is investing £1m in the scheme alongside Thames Water, which is contributing £1.84m.
The lottery funding will help pay for four new entrances, footpaths and cycle pathways and a former pumping station will be converted into a visitor centre featuring a cafe, exhibition space and viewing terrace.
Despite losing 2-0 to Hapoel Beer Sheva in Israel, the Scottish champions won the play-off 5-4 on aggregate.
"They're going back in amongst Europe's elite - it's where Celtic belong," said Rodgers.
"Tonight was really about getting through and all the plaudits go to the players because they got through."
Goals from Ben Sahar and Ovidiu Hoban made the match a nervous experience for Celtic but they did enough to avoid conceding a third that would have taken Hapoel through on away goals.
The aggregate success takes Celtic back into the group stage - a feat they were unable to achieve under Rodgers' predecessor Ronny Deila over the past two seasons.
"This is a huge step for us," said Rodgers, whose club stands to make around £30m from the group stage. "It's an incredible moment for them.
"At Celtic, when I came in, the focus of the criticism was that they couldn't tough it out, but we showed over two games and under a huge amount of pressure that this team can.
"You have to take into consideration the mentality of the players in the last couple of seasons when it's been so tough for them, mentally, to go out at this stage.
"We've only been together a short period of time. We've made huge strides as a team and as a club in every way.
"We showed an incredible desire to want to see the game through and you can't ask any more. They coped really, really well."

Can you write a brief summary of this passage? | Squads of hunters will pursue the wolves in a three-month "battle" from 15 January, officials say.
The most successful hunters will get bonuses. The vast, sparsely populated region is also known as Yakutia.
Experts quoted by Russian media believe a shortage of mountain hares has caused the migration of hungry wolves.
Wolf packs have moved into Sakha's central reindeer pastures, from their normal hunting grounds in the mountains and dense forests. Reports speak of increased attacks on livestock, but not on humans.
The wolf-hunting season has been extended to the whole year, as the target is to get the wolf population in the region down to 500 - reckoned to be the optimal number. Currently there are estimated to be more than 3,500.
There will be a "six-figure sum" for hunters who bring in the most wolf pelts - a big incentive, as 100,000 roubles (£2,043; $3,280) goes a long way in a region that is famously cold, remote and under-developed.
The emergency measures were announced by Sakha President Yegor Borisov, who heard numerous complaints about wolf attacks when he visited several villages, a statement on his website said.
The Sakha agriculture ministry says 16,111 reindeer were savaged by wolves in 2012 - a 4.3% rise on 2011. That meant a loss to reindeer herders of more than 150m roubles (£3m; $5m), as each reindeer is worth about 10,000 roubles (£205; $328).
Wolves also killed 314 domesticated horses, the Sakha authorities said.
Last year hunters killed 730 wolves in the republic.

"We got to the bottom of the stairs the door exploded at us - we got covered in glass - we just had to run."
Ms Chambers believes it was a deliberate attack, but has "no idea who would want to do this, especially to a house where young children are".
"My two innocent children's lives could have been taken by some stupid act," she said.
Ms Chambers added that she "still feels distraught", but was thankful for the help and support from the community.

Can you write a short summary of this section? | Olympus is being probed over its accounting practices and the admission that it hid losses.
The issue came to light after former chief executive Michael Woodford claimed he was fired for questioning payments relating to mergers.
Olympus admitted it hid $1.5bn (£968m) of losses over the past two decades.
Last week Olympus filed its revised earning reports with the Tokyo Stock Exchange.
In its latest accounts for the six months to the end of September the company declared a loss of 32.3bn yen ($414m; £267m).
It also revised down the value of its net assets to just 46bn yen, down from the 225bn yen it stated in March 2007.
Analysts said the raid on its headquarters just days after the filing of the report was a significant development.
"I would suspect that any documents needed by the prosecutors could have been just requested for and delivered by Olympus," Martin Schulz of Fujitsu Research Institute told the BBC.
"But the fact their offices have been raided seems to indicate that there are new developments in the investigation that might add a new twist to the story," he added.
The developments at Olympus had also raised concerns about corporate governance in Japan and how the affair will impact the country's image globally.
The fears were fanned further by contradictory statements by Olympus when the scandal broke out.
It first denied the allegations levelled by the Mr Woodford, but later admitted that it had been hiding losses for as long as two decades.
Analysts said the raid on Olympus was a signal by the authorities that they wanted to ensure that all corporations work within the given framework of rules and regulations.
"In a way it is a good thing that this has happened, as there were fears that this affair may be brushed under the carpet," said Gerhard Fasol of Eurotechnology Japan.

Please summarize the following text. | The agreement is designed to replace the Safe Harbour pact, which the EU Court of Justice ruled invalid in 2015.
One key change is a commitment from the White House regarding bulk collection of data sent from the EU to the US.
The UK's Information Commissioner said a post-Brexit UK may have to adopt EU data protection rules to trade with it.
If approved by the EU member states, the pact could take effect in July.
The EU-US Privacy shield is designed to make it easy for organisations to transfer data across the Atlantic.
Key points of the agreement are:
However, in May the European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS) said the Privacy Shield agreement needed to provide "adequate protection against indiscriminate surveillance" and "obligations on oversight, transparency, redress and data protection rights".
The agreement has now been amended. Some of the changes include:
A spokesman for the European Commission said: "This new framework for transatlantic data flows protects the fundamental rights of Europeans and ensures legal certainty for businesses."
While the EU-US Privacy Shield agreement would only apply to the UK while it remained a member of the European Union, the UK's Information Commissioner said Britain would probably need to adopt similar terms.
"If the UK wants to trade with the single market on equal terms we would have to prove 'adequacy' - in other words, UK data protection standards would have to be equivalent to the EU's General Data Protection Regulation framework starting in 2018," said a spokeswoman for the Information Commissioner's office in a statement.
"With so many businesses and services operating across borders, international consistency around data protection laws and rights is crucial both to businesses and organisations and to consumers and citizens."
The claim: Trade union umbrella body the TUC says leaving the EU would cut average earnings by £38 per week by 2030.
Reality Check verdict: The TUC has taken other bodies' forecasts that leaving the EU would lead to slower growth in the economy and used them to predict lower wages. While the precise figures are highly uncertain, if you believe the forecasts for the economy you can also believe that wages would be lower.
Where has that figure come from?
In its report, the TUC has taken the average of the falls in GDP (that's what you get when you add up the value of everything produced in the economy) for 2030, predicted by the OECD, the Treasury and the Centre for Economic Performance at the London School of Economics, as well as the fall in wages expected by the National Institute for Economic and Social Research (NIESR).
That gives an average figure of 5.6%. The TUC has assumed that a 5.6% fall in GDP would lead to a 5.6% fall in average earnings.
Average earnings at the moment are £492 a week. The current OBR forecast is that they will go up by £220 a week by 2030. The TUC reckons it will only go up by £182 a week if the UK leaves the EU, which is a difference of £38.
So, what do you need to believe to accept this figure? First there's the decline in GDP predicted by other bodies. Most serious models are predicting a downturn in growth if the UK leaves the EU, but we have discussed the problems with economic modelling in the past.
The next step is that a decline in GDP growth would lead to an identical fall in average earnings.
That's a reasonable assumption. The NIESR looked at real wages separately and predicted that they would be hit by more than they expected GDP to suffer, as a weaker pound increased the price of imported goods, raising the rate of inflation.
The TUC itself warns of the high level of uncertainty involved in any such exercise, but claims: "it is not contentious to project a material further downward impact on living standards following Brexit".

Can you summarize the following information? | Chatbots or virtual assistants are creeping into all aspects of our lives - from boxes in the home, such as Amazon's Alexa, which can tell you your bank balance, to bots that pop up on messaging services or websites to help with your mortgage or order you a pizza.
Add to that weather bots, news bots, shopping bots, personal finance bots and scheduling bots, and it becomes clear why chatbots are rapidly becoming the "poster child of AI".
That's the view of Gerard Frith, chairman of AI consultancy company Matter, who has launched a number of bots in a range of organisations.
He has seen a marked difference in attitude between different companies.
While some are up front with customers about the fact that they are conversing with a machine, others aren't.
"When people know that they are talking to a chatbot, they are much less patient and want to escalate the call so that they can chat to a human," he told the BBC.
"Chatbots are clearly not as capable as a very good customer service person, but many people are not very good at customer service.
"So, then, chatbots do a valuable job.
"They understand when to pass a query on to a human, and they are actually often better than humans at answering complex questions."
IBM's cognitive platform Watson has always been good at interpreting natural language, so it makes sense that the technology is increasingly in-demand as a chatbot - most recently developing the Luvo platform for the Royal Bank of Scotland.
Currently being tested among bank staff who handle queries from small business customers, Luvo will eventually be let loose on all customers.
It can solve problems, without requiring human intervention, about 30% of the time.
Luvo has been designed to be "humanlike" in its interactions and is learning sentiment analysis to work out whether a customer is unhappy.
It has been trained to recognise different accents from around the UK.
Paul Chong, director of IBM Watson Europe, thinks businesses will increasingly see voice, rather than apps or web pages, as the best way to interact with customers.
"In future people won't need to go to websites, it will all be about the conversation," he said.
And chatbots were likely to change the way we converse.
"There are questions that people will ask a robot that they wouldn't ask a human," Mr Chong said.
"We are working with a couple of Australian universities, and people ask questions that they wouldn't ask a human such as, 'How do I make friends?'"
Pizza Hut is just about to launch its own chatbot, playing catch-up with rival Dominoes, which already has one.
Described as "conversational commerce", the bot will launch in Twitter and Facebook Messenger later this year.
Facebook Messenger now has 11,000 chatbots, while Kik - a popular messaging platform among teenagers, unveiled 6,000 new chatbots last month alone.
Messaging apps are rapidly becoming the communication tool of choice for the young, and the top four - Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, WeChat and Viber - now have more registered users than the top four social networks.
But not everyone is queuing up to employ a chatbot.
Ikea was one of the first companies to use the technology - launching its virtual assistant, Anna, as a way to guide people around its website.
But now it has abandoned Anna and has "no plans" to reintroduce her.
In a statement to the BBC, an Ikea representative said: "For over 10 years, our automated online assistant, Anna, has cheerfully answered people's questions on Ikea.com.
"But as times changed and technology developed, last year it was decided that it was time for Anna to move on.
"So last year "Ask Anna!" was removed from Ikea.com."
Magnus Jern, president of mobile solutions company DMI, who was involved in the launch of the mobile version of Anna, has some advice for those thinking about using a chatbot.
"In the beginning, we tried to impersonate a person, and we found that there was no reason to do that," he said.
In fact, trying to make Anna "human-like' meant that people were more likely to ask it stupid questions, Mr Jern said.
"Around 50% of questions were sex-related," he said.
"If you try too hard to be natural, it diverts from the real purpose of it, which is about giving the right answer as fast as possible."
Customer frustration may have played a part in the demise of Anna, and it is something that others will have to be aware of.
Writing recently in Tech Crunch, Arun Uday, a venture capitalist and founder of mobile group chat app Tring Chat, said: "When a customer has an issue, they would most likely want to skip automated response options and speak to a real person who can fix their problem - not chat with a semi-intelligent bot dishing out some canned responses."
But Mr Jern remains more optimistic, believing not only that chatbots are here to stay but that they are likely to become far more sophisticated.
"It will get more and more difficult to distinguish between the real people and the fake ones," he said. | We might regard our semi-intelligent smartphone assistants with a mixture of affection and frustration, but our attempts at getting answers from them are going to be just the start of a much bigger conversation. |

The bus carrying players and officials of the Ghana Premier League team was returning to its base in Kumasi after a game against Inter Allies in Accra.
The incident took place in the southern town of Nkawkaw, where the bus is said to have hit a stationary truck.
The team's deputy equipment officer Kofi Asare has been confirmed dead.
"Management has been in shock and grief following Wednesday's unfortunate accident involving our team bus," Kotoko said in a statement on Thursday.
"We regret to announce that Kofi Asare could not make it."
"Meanwhile, head coach Steven Polack, midfielder Ollennu Ashitey and bus driver Nana Berkye are receiving treatment."
The statement added that players and officials who had sustained minor injuries have been treated and discharged, with a follow-up examination scheduled for Saturday.
Reports suggest there were around 35 people on board - nine of whom have already been treated and discharged from the hospital in Nkawkaw.
In a statement, the Ghanaian FA said it was 'devastated' by the news.
"Our thoughts and prayers are with Kumasi Asante Kotoko, particularly the injured officials and players, who are currently receiving treatment in Nkawkaw," it added.
Kotoko's league game against Accra Hearts of Oak, which was scheduled for Sunday, has been indefinitely postponed.
Asante Kotoko is a famous football club based in Kumasi, Ghana's second-largest city.
The news has been met with an outpouring of grief on social media, says the BBC's Thomas Naadi in Accra.
Ghana's President Nana Akufo-Addo says he's saddened by the incident and has wished the injured a speedy recovery.
Asante Kotoko had lost to Inter Allies, so ending a 10-game run without a defeat to leave the two-time African champions fourth in the league.
Englishman Ben Ryan has joined the WRU to work with all men's teams outside Rob Howley's national squad, and all Wales' women's teams.

Can you provide an overview of this section? | Marchers carrying placards and banners- many in the Catalan language - accused the Madrid government of dragging its feet over the issue.
They say it has not honoured its pledge made in 2015 to allow more than 17,000 refugees into Spain within two years.
Over that time, Spain has accepted only about 1,100 refugees.
Police gave the estimate of the turnout at Saturday's protest in the capital of Catalonia, organised by the Our Home is Your Home group, with many denouncing the government for not living up to its promises.
Protest organisers quoted by local media said that as many as 300,000 people took part.
The route took them from the Barcelona city centre to the Mediterranean coast - an end-point seen as highly symbolic given the fact that about 5,000 refugees are estimated to have perished in the sea in 2016.
One 62-year-old protester marching alongside his friends and family told the AFP news agency that the demonstration was triggered by the government's lacklustre response to the refugee crisis.
"We demand this minimum amount of dignity - that at least this number of refugees can come," Jacint Comelles said.
"In Catalonia, everything is ready to welcome them."

Barcelona Mayor Ada Colau participated in the march. She has been at the forefront of the campaign to lobby the Spanish government into accepting more refugees.
Spain is in many respects similar to other EU countries who have fallen below target when it comes to accepting refugees.
Germany however is a noticeable exception, allowing 890,000 asylum-seekers into the country in 2015 and another 280,000 the year after that. | Some 160,000 people have demonstrated in Barcelona to demand the government allow more refugees into Spain from war-hit areas such as Syria. |
Please summarize the document below. | Researchers from Swansea University unveiled the scans to coincide with the British Science Festival, taking place in the Welsh city this week.
Some of the virtual objects are public while others are for research purposes.
The idea is to see how much can be learned about the lives of the ship's crew, just from their digitised bones.
Richard Johnston, a materials engineer at Swansea, said the project would test the scientific value of digital archaeology - and the world's burgeoning collection of cyber-artefacts.
"Lots of museums are digitising collections, and a lot of the drive behind that is creating a digital copy of something," Dr Johnston told journalists at a press briefing in London.
"We're going to challenge the research community to see if they can actually do osteological analysis.
"Then we will take the results from around the world and try and compare those to a study that we did, where people looked at the real remains."
The public website virtualtudors.org, launched on Monday, offers an interactive view of one particular skull from the Mary Rose crew - that of a carpenter found on the ship's lower deck - as well as several of his possessions.
A separate, research-focussed section of the site will make a further nine skulls available to bone specialists around the world.
More on digital archaeology:

Each participant will be given a questionnaire to see what their assessment is of the skulls, which the UK team will then compare.
If the results are good, Dr Johnston said, they might help tackle scepticism from some in the field who insist that physically interacting with specimens is essential.
"Do you really need to hold the skull, or can you tell a lot from the digital one? There's the potential to speed up science dramatically - but this needs to happen first."
Because the pool of expertise can be much wider once resources like these are online, there is also the possibility that a new discovery will emerge.
"It might be that somebody in, I don't know, Arizona, has a particular speciality and they say, 'Do you realise that this person here has such-and-such a condition?' It'd be very nice if that happened," said Swansea biomechanist Nick Owen, who has previously studied the skeletons of archers from the Mary Rose.
When the ship sank 471 years ago, it was leading the attack on an invading French fleet north of the Isle of Wight.
Discovered in 1971 and raised in 1982, the wreck is a famous time capsule of Tudor times, yielding around 19,000 artefacts and 179 skeletons.
Restoring and exhibiting the Mary Rose was a mammoth archaeological effort. A new display of the remains of her hull was unveiled in July in a purpose-built museum in Portsmouth.
It includes projected vignettes of crew members moving among the ship's timbers.
"We've sort of got a virtual ghost ship, with people walking around it and doing things," said Alex Mildred from the Mary Rose Trust.
"And now we hope to have a virtual population that people can interact with online and that researchers, hopefully, may be able to help us build into more complete individuals."
One of those highlighted crew members is the same carpenter whose skull is the centrepiece of the new website.
Found with his tools, he was probably in his mid-thirties and suffered arthritis and bad teeth. Carpenters like him worked on the lower decks to repair damage during battle.
After more than four centuries at the bottom of the Solent, this carpenter's journey to 3D reconstruction and internet fame has been painstaking and precise.
Some 120 photos were taken of his skull, and each of the others, using a 39-megapixel camera.
"It was probably about a day of photographing per skull," said student Sarah Aldridge, who did most of this work herself as part of her PhD research at Swansea University.
"It got a little bit quicker as it went through."
Once the snaps were taken, the business of "photogrammetry" began: Ms Aldridge used software to edit, align and combine all the images into a 3D representation - now visible online in 15-megapixel glory.
This is compressed, but still very detailed.
"It's a lot of data that's been compressed into an object to give us what we think is probably, currently, the best that can be done with photogrammetry in terms of resolution and quality," said Mr Owen.
All of this effort, the team hopes, will give the virtual bones the best chance of performing well in the study.
"What we're doing with our website is... to draw a line in the sand," Mr Owen said.
"How much information can we get? How useful is photogrammetry, for osteology, with the current state of the art?"

Summarize this article briefly. | Jose Maria Marin, 83, was among seven officials from football's world governing body Fifa who were arrested in May at a Zurich hotel.
The move came after they were indicted on corruption charges in the US.
Mr Marin is accused of taking bribes in connection with marketing rights.
He is alleged to have accepted millions of dollars from sports marketing companies in connection with the Copa America and Copa do Brasil tournaments.
Mr Marin "must be placed in the custody of a US police escort and taken to the USA within 10 days", the Swiss justice office said in a statement.
Until now, he had fought his extradition.
Former Fifa vice president Jeffrey Webb has also agreed to be extradited to the US.
The five others who were arrested in Zurich continue to oppose their extradition.
The US has indicted a total of 14 current and former Fifa officials and associates on charges of "rampant, systemic, and deep-rooted" corruption following a major inquiry by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Her school's head teacher described her as a "truly lovely, talented girl" and said the community was "devastated".
Police said her family and the coroner had been told of the death.
"Bonnie, the daughter of a member of our staff, was a truly lovely, talented girl who was bright, kind, compassionate, gentle and full of joy," said Andrew Nott, head of St Hugh's School near Faringdon in Oxfordshire.
"Our love, thoughts and prayers are with her parents, Nick and Polly, and siblings, Zach and Mamie, at this profoundly difficult time."
Gloucestershire Police said she suffered serious injuries and was taken by air ambulance to Gloucestershire Royal Hospital where she later died.
A source told the Press Association: "My understanding is that she was riding slightly behind a bigger horse that kicked out at her pony.
"The kick caught her. It was a tragic accident."
Another said: "She is believed to have been kicked off her horse by another horse. It is an extremely sad incident."
In a statement, the joint masters of the Cotswold Hunt said: "A sense of overwhelming shock and sadness is with us all as we try to come to terms with her family's overwhelming loss and grief, and I hope that the strength of our community together with the power of our prayers and the sincerity of our condolences will be of some comfort to the family.

Jessica Hatchett said disabled fans faced "discrimination" after finding it impossible to get Ed Sheeran tickets for his Cardiff concert next year.
Other disabled fans said they also struggled to get through to the Ticketmaster phone line.
Ticketmaster apologised and said it saw "unprecedented" demand for his concert.
While people were able to buy a ticket online, the same service was not available for accessible tickets.
It meant disabled fans spent "hours" on hold but were unable to get a ticket for Sheeran's Divide tour at the Principality Stadium.
Ms Hatchett said: "When you have just one number you can dial and no other options, you can't go online and book, that is your only way of trying.
"You keep trying, keep trying and keep trying and it gets frustrating because I had relatives who could go online and book tickets in 20 minutes or so whereas there were people waiting seven hours and getting absolutely nowhere."
She said the campaign aimed to improve the provision for disabled people who love music.
"If you want to go to a big venue that has capacity of 60,000 fans the number of spaces for a wheelchair user will not be anywhere near that size, it will be substantially smaller," she added.
Kayley Richards, of Bridgend, has also been trying to buy her 15-year-old brother Geraint tickets for the gig.
Her brother Geraint was brain damaged after a near-fatal asthma attack in 2014 and he was left unable to communicate properly.
After repeated attempts on the phone and her calls being cut off, Ms Richards finally got through and managed to buy Geraint a ticket.
"Now that Geraint has a disability, we can see how difficult it is for disabled people to get tickets to see their favourite singers," she said.
"I tried every way possible to get him a ticket but discrimination is in the way once again. The system that is in place is shocking and needs to be changed.
"Why should his rights be different to everybody else just because he is disabled?"
A Ticketmaster spokeswoman said: "We're very sorry to any fans that had issues getting through on our accessible bookings line for Ed Sheeran's Divide tour.
"Our team speaks to each customer personally to identify their particular requirements and we pride ourselves on the service we provide fans.
"We are very disappointed that some felt let down in this instance, but we saw unprecedented demand for Ed who broke all records in Ticketmaster UK's history.

Provide a summary of the section below. | Michelle Lowe, Sevenoaks council's deputy leader, tweeted: "Politicians should go out and show emotion."
She said the intent of the tweet was to show "reserved people" still cared about the suffering of others.
Gary Ridley, the Tory leader in Coventry, where Ms Lowe stood in the general election, said he was "disturbed" by the tweet.
Some Twitter users speculated it was in reaction to backlash against PM Theresa May for her perceived "lack of emotion" in response to the Grenfell Tower deaths.
Mr Ridley said: "I'm disturbed by any attempt to use Adolf Hitler to make a political point."
"He brought pain and suffering to the world on an unimaginable scale and was responsible for the deaths of millions of innocent people.
"To evoke his memory in this way is disrespectful to those who suffered at the hands of this monster and trivialises the crimes of the Nazi regime.
"As Leader of the Conservative Party, in a city which still bears the scars of Nazi aggression, I'm disturbed by any attempt to use Adolf Hitler to make a political point."
This month Ms Lowe failed to get elected as Conservative parliamentary candidate in Coventry South.
"Michelle Lowe doesn't represent, or speak on behalf of, Coventry Conservatives. I'd urge her to reflect on her comments and apologise for any offence which she may have caused," Mr Ridley added.
Councillor Lowe, who represents Otford and Shoreham on Sevenoaks District Council, has responded to the criticism.
She said: "The purpose of the Tweet was not to cause offence but to point out that just because some people are reserved and not as able to be as familiar with strangers as others it does not mean they don't care about their suffering.
"I am sorry for any upset that may have been caused."
Twitter user Jennie Morley said she agreed with Ms Lowe.
"I think it's obvious what the message is: things aren't always what they seem. Good example!" she tweeted.
Ms Lowe was also challenged on social media about whether she was comparing Hitler to the opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn - who was pictured hugging people after the Grenfell Tower fire.
She replied: "I'm not comparing anyone to anyone. Just posted a tweet."
A spokesman for Shoreham and District Labour Party said: "To liken Mr Corbyn to Hitler, if that is what Councillor Lowe was doing, is inexcusable and possibly the worst insult she could make to a socialist.
"If it was some sort of joke, we find it in the very worst possible taste."

Please provide a short summary of this passage. | About 1.5% of Wiltshire Police officers are black, which the force described as a "disappointing position" to be in.
Sgt Ronnie Lungu, 40, was promoted from constable rank after a tribunal found he had been discriminated against.
The force said opportunities to promote minority officers from within were "quite limited" due to low numbers.
Wiltshire Police currently employs 14 black constables and two black sergeants, according to a Freedom of Information (FOI) request by BBC Wiltshire. It has 1,039 officers in total.
In April, Sgt Lungu - who joined the force in 2003 - claimed he had been passed over for promotion because of his race and a Bristol tribunal ruled in his favour.
Kier Pritchard, temporary assistant chief constable, said: "At this stage we have a small number of officers and staff who are from Black Minority Ethnic (BME) communities, so therefore our opportunity to be able to promote from within, and actually move our staff to higher positions of supervision and management, is actually quite limited and quite restricted for us."
He added it was important to understand from BME communities why there had only been "a small number of applications" for people to join the service.
Jabeer Butt, deputy chief executive of the Race Equality Foundation, said there was "a long way to go" to ensure police forces represented their communities and offered equal opportunities to progress within the ranks.
"It's also quite clear that some of the discriminatory practices that have been around for a while still operate and we still have racism operating within the police force [nationally]," he said. | A police officer who took Wiltshire Police to a racism tribunal is the only black officer to be promoted within the force in the past five years. |

"We've got the infrastructure in place, a development partner actively working with us to provide premises and employers for the site and now this extra funding that will open up even more space for investment," she said.
The money, secured by the North East Local Enterprise Partnership, will be used to fill a redundant wet berth at the old shipyard, creating more space for potential businesses.
It is part of an £100m investment by development funds, the local authority and the private sector.
Jane Hutt told BBC Sunday Politics Wales that a funding deal offered by the coalition does not provide enough certainty for public spending in Wales.
She echoed comments of the first minister who said a promise of fair funding was short on detail.
David Cameron has pledged to protect the Welsh budget which ministers in Cardiff have long been demanding.
But the amount of money on offer will not be known until the next UK government spending review, due after the general election.
Instead of solely relying on an annual grant from the Treasury, the prime minister wants the Welsh government to raise some of its own budget through taxes.
He says the promise of a "funding floor" - designed to stop the Welsh budget being squeezed by the Barnett formula - means there is now no reason to delay a referendum on giving the Welsh government some powers to vary income tax.
But Mrs Hutt said the coalition could have gone further by offering more detail on the terms of the funding floor, "but they didn't. They took us for granted and they can't do that."
She added: "This is not about being told at the last minute 'We'll give you this, you do that'.
"That is not about an agreement. That is not about a respect agenda."
She said that if the Welsh government got "that reassurance, that clarity we can sign up to it, then of course you could consider beginning to make a start in terms of considering tax devolution".

But Scarlets coach Wayne Pivac believes Davies is the best seven in Wales.
"If we had a choice of him over other open-sides in the country we would take James every day," Pivac said.
Despite Sam Warburton and Justin Tipuric being away with the British and Irish Lions there was no space in the Wales squad for Davies, with Cardiff Blues' Ellis Jenkins, Thomas Young of Wasps and Dragons' Ollie Griffiths selected ahead of him.

Olympics sevens silver medallist Davies was instrumental as Scarlets overcame the first-half dismissal of wing Steffan Evans to claim a 27-15 win in Dublin on Friday.
Davies, brother of Lions and Wales centre Jonathan, played out of position on the wing in the second half, after Evans was red carded for a tip tackle on Leinster centre Garry Ringrose.
"If you put him on the wing he doesn't flinch, just goes out there and does the job," Pivac added.
"He has a great skill set and a very big heart.
"I have said from day one he is a fantastic player and I rate him very highly.

Summarize the information given below. | In 2003 in Scotland, there were nearly 7,000 phone boxes. Today there are fewer than 5,000 boxes - and just over 1,000 of them are the iconic red phone boxes.
As more and more of us use mobile phones, the number of call boxes will continue to decline.
But some communities across the country are turning to them for new and very different uses.
An old phone box in Comrie has a new lease of life... as a life saver.
Alan Moffat is the manager of the first response team in Comrie.
"It's a community access defibrillator site; we have converted it and put a defibrillator in for the use in the local community. I know it can save lives, it's probably one of the best chances people have of recovering from a cardiac arrest."
And that's the hope of the community who raised money in memory of a local woman, Irene McCartney, who died in 2012.
Her widower Gordon hopes it will make a real difference to someone in the future.
And art is in the spotlight in another phone box in Portobello.
Steven Wheatley had the vision to turn a disused phone box into a vibrant art exhibition space, the Porty Light Box, albeit on a small scale.
"I'm a bit nostalgic and I appreciate what they add to the street scene so I was keen to retain it," he explained.
Actually making a phone call from a phone box is becoming a thing of the past so will they eventually disappear altogether?
BT Scotland director Brendan Dick said: "Clearly as people adopt mobile technology, as those networks expand there is less demand for them in some areas.
"Yet in some urban parts some of them are used very extensively, so there is a future for pay phones in the broader sense."
Today BT operates 4,864 kiosks in Scotland - it had 5,251 in 2012, 5,896 in 2007 and 6,962 in 2003. It currently has 1,129 red kiosks in Scotland.
During the last 12 months, no paid for call has been made from 1,723 of Scottish payphones, including 684 of the red boxes.
And in Alyth in Perthshire another transformation is planned.
Marian Bruce is the project coordinator of the Story Box.
"The idea was that it would be a time machine, a bit like Dr Who's Tardis," she said.
"You would go into the box and you would be able to move forwards and backwards in time to hear about the stories from Alyth.
"We're recording oral histories from people and stories about the town now from people who live and work in the town and we're also working with young people to think about the future of Alyth and what the town will be like when they're grown up."
Chan, whose son was jailed for drugs offences, said that with drugs "you're hurting thousands of young children".
Jaycee Chan spent six months in prison in China after police found marijuana in his home.
Jackie Chan is Singapore's first celebrity anti-drug ambassador. He was named official Narcotics Control Ambassador by Chinese police in 2009.
Both Singapore and China have enforced capital punishment for drug trafficking.
In an interview with journalists conducted in both English and Mandarin, he said drugs were not only hurting young people, they were hurting his family.
"On some issues, I do support the death penalty," he said.
"When you're hurting thousands and thousands of young children, I think these kind of people are useless.
"You should get the right punishment."
He added: "[Young people say] 'it's okay, it's just like a cigarette'. I say 'it's not okay, not in my family'."
Jaycee, 32, was imprisoned for not just using drugs, but for the additional and more serious crime of "providing a shelter for others to abuse drugs", Beijing police said at the time.
When asked about Jaycee's time in prison, Chan said he felt "ashamed" and "shocked" and that he was now more focused on his son.
"I'm more concentrating on him now, used to be just, 'you are a grown man.' But now I find out, he's still a boy," Chan said. | When was the last time you made a call from a phone box?

"Dillon is a very good prop, with a good all-round game and has achieved a lot," head coach Danny Wilson said.
"Ethan's another player we have high hopes for. He has also been unfortunate with injuries but is back fit."
Greater Manchester Police said they were called to an incident in the Gorton area at about 22:00 BST on Friday 26 June.
The arrested boy has since been bailed pending further inquiries.
Det Insp Carol Hobson said: "I want to stress this was not a random stranger attack and there is no reason for any parents to be fearful."
The 36-year-old left the Premier League champions at the end of the season after making 717 appearances and winning 13 major trophies in 22 years.
However, the centre-back only featured 14 times for Chelsea in 2016-17.
"We've made him a good offer and we have done the best we can," Redknapp told TalkSport.
"It's up to John now, but we would love him at Birmingham."
Terry is Chelsea's third-highest all-time appearance maker, behind Ron Harris and Peter Bonetti, and holds the club record for appearances as captain.
But he only started two Premier League games after September last campaign as manager Antonio Conte preferred Gary Cahill, Cesar Azpilicueta and David Luiz as his three centre-backs.
Redknapp recently linked up with Terry for Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick's testimonial match, with Terry captaining Redknapp's All-Stars.
He could become Redknapp's second signing as Blues boss, following the arrival of goalkeeper David Stockdale on a free transfer from Brighton on Tuesday.
Corrie Mckeague, 23, vanished from Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, on 24 September.
More than £51,000 has been raised to fund a private investigator. Donations have come from almost 5,000 people.
Nicola Urquhart told supporters: "Even in my darkest moments when I just want to crumble you all just keep giving me the strength to carry on fighting."
What do we know about Corrie Mckeague's disappearance?
Her son, a gunner at RAF Honington, was last seen at about 03:25 BST walking alone in the Suffolk market town.
He was seen walking into a dead-end loading bay area known at the "horseshoe" but not seen coming out again.
In response to Mrs Urquhart's frustrations with the police investigation, a crowdfunding site to hire a private investigator was set up on 6 December.
Mrs Urquhart, from Dunfermline, told donors: "You have given us the ability to get information that might just be that vital piece that brings Corrie home.
"We just could not have considered these opportunities without your amazing kindness."
A private investigator has not yet been hired.
Mrs Urquhart said if she does not hire one, the money would go to Suffolk Lowland Search and Rescue which has been assisting the search effort.
Mrs Urquhart said she had halted her search for a private investigator after Suffolk Police agreed to investigate three men attempting to set fire to a vehicle on 25 September.
Police said the incident had been investigated and there was nothing to link it to Mr Mckeague's disappearance.
A second public search for Mr Mckeague will take place on 22 January. More than 60 volunteers joined in the first on 17 December.

Around five properties were affected in Park Avenue, Kerry, following heavy rain.

Rebels will be allowed to pull back to opposition-held areas north of Homs, activists say. The Syrian government has not commented on the reports.
Fighters have held areas around the Old City despite a two-year siege. Earlier this year civilians were let out.
Also on Friday, two bombs in Hama province reportedly killed at least 18.
Eleven children were among the dead after suicide bombers struck in the villages of Jibrin and al-Humeiri, both under government control, state media said.
The attack comes three days after scores of people were killed and injured in car bombings in government-controlled parts of Homs city.
There has so far been no claim of responsibility for the Hama bombings, correspondents say, but al-Qaeda affiliated rebels of the Nusra Front have carried out several car bombings in recent weeks.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR), a UK-based activist group, said about 1,000 fighters were expected to pull out from rebel-held areas of Homs under the terms of a ceasefire.
The city has seen some of the worst fighting in the three years of the Syrian conflict.
The SOHR said rebels will be allowed to withdraw to the north of the province, while the army will take control of areas of the Old City which they have vacated.
"The withdrawal has not begun yet and under the agreement those leaving will be able to keep their weapons," Homs activist Thaer al-Khalidiyeh told AFP news agency.
A team in the city from the AP news agency said it was unusually quiet on Friday, with no shots fired.
In February, hundreds of civilians - many ill and starved - were evacuated from Homs Old City after the UN negotiated a temporary ceasefire between rebels and Syrian forces.

Newport, bottom of League Two, parted company with Butcher on Thursday.
Byron Anthony and Michael Flynn will assist Sheridan, 51, for Saturday's home game against Exeter City.
"I am confident that if the players and fans work together we can help the squad climb the table, away from the relegation zone," he said.
Sheridan, who played for Leeds United, Sheffield Wednesday and Bolton Wanderers, has managed Oldham, Chesterfield and Plymouth Argyle, who he left in May 2015.
He has been appointed until the end of the season and is expected to confirm his permanent backroom staff in the near future.
County have approached Irish Premiership side Linfield regarding the possibility of appointing their manager Warren Feeney as Sheridan's assistant.
Ex-Northern Ireland striker Feeney spent three years with Cardiff City and had a brief spell on loan with Swansea City in 2007.
Sheridan's appointment comes less than 24 hours after former England captain Butcher, along with assistant Russell Osman and chief scout Steve Marsella, left the club.
Their departures came after Newport County Supporters' Trust raised the required £195,000 to take over the club.
"The trust board are delighted that John has agreed to join us," a statement read.

Can you provide a summary of this content? | A one kilometre protection zone was set up around Craigies Poultry Farm on the outskirts of Dunfermline after a type of H5N1 was found.
Tests indicate a "low pathogenic" strain.
The birds will be loaded into containment units before being gassed and driven away to be rendered. The process will take two days to complete.
A spokesman for the Animal Plant and Health Agency, said the cull began at noon.
The spokesman said: "Fully-trained, experienced and licensed contractors will undertake the culling using containerised gassing techniques developed with the involvement of the Humane Slaughter Association.
"This is the method used in previous outbreaks in England in 2014 and 2015."
Health Protection Scotland said the risk to human health from the virus was "very low".
Environment Secretary Richard Lochhead has said the bird flu strain was "quite distinct" from the form of H5N1 which had previously been detected in Scotland.
There have been a number of recent cases of avian influenza across continental Europe in recent months, including three cases in other parts of the UK in 2015.
Within the Fife control zone, a range of different measures are in place which include restrictions on the movement of poultry, carcasses, eggs, used poultry litter and manure and restrictions on bird gatherings.
Scotland's Chief Veterinary Officer, Sheila Voas, said: "The lab has now formally confirmed the presence of a very mild form of H5N1 avian influenza on a poultry farm near Dunfermline.
"It is important to stress that this strain is quite distinct from the highly pathogenic form of H5N1 that has caused significant problems over the past decade or so around the world.
"Robust precautionary measures have been in place since suspicion of disease was first reported, in line with our well-rehearsed contingency plans for dealing with avian influenza, and so today's formal confirmation is something of a technicality.
"The process of humanely culling all of the birds on the farm is now underway, and the one kilometre restrictions around the premises will remain in force for 21 days after preliminary cleansing and disinfection."
Ms Vaos added: "The eggs supplied by this broiler breeder unit are not for human consumption but are sent to a company hatchery.
"As a precaution, those eggs are being destroyed and the movement of poultry or poultry products at that site is restricted until that process is complete." | A cull of 40,000 chickens has begun at a Fife farm where a "very mild" strain of bird flu was identified on Monday. |
Please provide a short summary of this passage. | Alev Scott, a British-Turkish writer, says she heard gunfire in Istanbul's Taksim Square and low-flying jets.
The Foreign Office had "strongly" advised Britons to stay indoors, but recently said the situation "appears to be calming".
ABTA estimates its members have 50,000 people currently on holiday in Turkey.
More than 2.5 million Britons visit Turkey every year.
Ms Scott said: "I was watching things from my terrace, watching the military vehicles on the Bosphorus Bridge and then these sonic booms started.
"It was actually quite scary so I went down into my flat just keeping away from the windows which had all blown open."
British holidaymakers in Marmaris have also described hearing gunfire in the streets and an explosion.
Rhonda Jones, a player for Rangers Ladies football club, posted a video on Twitter of cars and scooters filling the streets in a procession loudly beeping their horns.
She described hearing "gunfire exchanged up and down the street in Marmaris" and "a small explosion".
Mike Baddeley, also on holiday in Marmaris, said he was woken by "a very large explosion, followed by, it seemed like one or two helicopters flying above our heads... with machine gun fire".
Saima Alvi, a teacher from Altrincham, landed at Istanbul's Ataturk Airport in transit to Qatar just after the coup attempt, and found herself stranded with her family, including her disabled daughter.
Speaking from the airport she said: "I was in a small transit lounge with about 150 other people and everyone was crying, upset and scared.
"I found a point which was next to an exit but also wasn't near the windows and I had a plan of action, an evaluation if I had to get out quickly with the children."
Also stranded at Ataturk airport were 41 students and seven members of staff from the Arthur Terry School in Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham, who were there to get a connecting flight to South Africa.
The school said earlier that the British Consulate and Foreign Office were providing support.
It issued an update on Saturday evening saying the children would fly out to South Africa overnight.
The attempted coup began on Friday evening when tanks took up positions on two bridges over the Bosphorus Strait in Istanbul, blocking traffic.
Turkish officials said the attempt to seize control of the country by a faction of the armed forces is now over and 2,839 soldiers, including high-ranking officers, have been arrested.
Turkey's PM Binali Yildirim said 161 citizens had been killed and 1,440 have been wounded in clashes in a night he called a "black stain on Turkish democracy".
A further 104 suspected coup-plotters had also been killed, authorities said.
Burcu Incekara, 37, a shopkeeper on Green Lanes in Haringey, said: "My sons just went to Turkey two days ago - they said they were safe at the moment."
But she said that F-16 planes had flown very near to their house.
"There were bomb, gun attacks from the soldiers to the police - it's not good," she said.
"They were scared, of course, because near where they are there is a place with soldiers and they are scared - everyone is scared."
The Foreign Office's latest advice says: "The situation in Turkey appears to be calming following an attempted coup overnight on 15-16 July.
"The security environment, however, remains potentially volatile.
"Following earlier disruption, flights to and from airports in Turkey are returning to normal, although some disruption remains and you should check with your airline or tour operator before travelling."
ABTA, which represents travel agents and tour operators, said travellers should follow Foreign Office advice, but added that most British travellers will be visiting coastal resorts, which were not significantly affected.
The Association of British Insurers said travellers should be able to transfer travel insurance to a new destination if alternative arrangements are made by those booked to travel to Turkey.
British Airways has cancelled all flights to and from Turkey on Saturday and flight BA675 departing from Istanbul on Sunday.

Summarize the passage below. | The last print edition will be on 31 December, reflecting the trend for newspapers and magazines to move online as traditional advertising declines.
Newsweek merged with the internet news group the Daily Beast two years ago.
The Daily Beast's founder, Tina Brown, said its site now had more than 15 million unique visitors a month, a 70% increase on last year.
She said in a statement: "Exiting print is an extremely difficult moment for all of us who love the romance of print and the unique weekly camaraderie of those hectic hours before the close on Friday night.

In 1933, Newsweek hit the news stands - a weekly magazine covering global events.
But much like the world it's reported on over the last 80 years, much has changed in the publishing world too. Not least how consumers get their news.
The number of Newsweek subscribers has slumped from more than 3 million at its peak to 1.5 million today. Couple that with falling advertising revenues for traditional print media and it's led Newsweek to ditch its print edition altogether.
Newsweek Global, the digital only version, will be available via a subscription. It's a way of tapping into the 70 million consumers who now use tablet computers in the US, a figure that's soared from just 13 million two years ago.
But while it's a large market, there are also more competitors, and analysts say standing out in a digital world will be tough.
"But as we head for the 80th anniversary of Newsweek next year, we must sustain the journalism that gives the magazine its purpose - and embrace the all-digital future.
"This decision is not about the quality of the brand or the journalism - that is as powerful as ever. It is about the challenging economics of print publishing and distribution."
Newsweek rose to become the second largest US news weekly magazine, behind Time. But declining circulation and advertising saw it fall into losses.
It was sold by the Washington Post Company to Sidney Harman in August 2010, and was merged with the Daily Beast three months later.
Tina Brown, who became Lady Evans when her husband Harold Evans, the legendary journalist, was knighted, is a former editor of Vanity Fair and The New Yorker.
She teamed up with Barry Diller to launch The Daily Beast in 2008. The website's name comes from the fictional newspaper in Evelyn Waugh's 1938 novel Scoop.
The opener made 81 for Somerset against the tourists on the first day of a four-day match at Taunton on Wednesday.
Joe Root had overtaken Compton in the pecking order for the first Test, which starts at Trent Bridge on 10 July.
"Nick Compton's one-off appearance for Worcestershire will not alter England's plans to open with Joe Root for the first Ashes Test. But it does give Compton a chance to cement his position as the next cab off the rank should England suffer an injury to any of their batsmen. Compton's temporary move is no skin off Somerset's nose given that he was unlikely to feature in their Twenty20 plans, but it does give the batsman an opportunity to follow up his classy 81 for Somerset on Wednesday with another innings of substance against the touring Australians."
However, Compton's one-off county switch shows he still has a chance to regain his England Test place.
He hit back-to-back Test centuries for England in New Zealand in the winter, but scored just 39 runs in four innings in the two Tests against the Kiwis this summer.
As a result, Compton, 30, was left out of England's warm-up game against Essex this weekend.
There is a precedent for his one-off appearance for a different county. In 2011 an out-of-form Andrew Strauss played for Somerset against India tourists when his county Middlesex had no fixture.
The four-day match between Worcestershire and Australia begins on 2 July.
Compton has averaged 31.93 in his nine tests, hitting two centuries.

He took her to Raleigh Park where he raped her, Thames Valley Police said.
A traffic collision involving a black VW Golf in Wytham shortly before 23:00 is being linked to the investigation.
A forensics tent has been put up in the park with a cordon surrounding it and police are combing the area, with increased foot patrols in place.
The offender is described as white, about 30 years old, muscular and just under 6ft. He was wearing dark black clothing, with a hood up and a balaclava covering the lower part of his face.
A 38-year-old man is currently in police custody.

The report has projected a boost of nearly 10% in economic output, or £13bn at current prices, if Scotland takes the most ambitious choices and becomes a world leader.
And it said 99% of Scots could be using the internet by 2030.
The report was commissioned by the Scottish Futures Trust.
It also said:
With the Internet of Things being developed - allowing people to control homes, cars and workplaces through electronic communications - there could be as many as 130 million digital devices in Scotland - 26 for the average Scot.
Even without any initiative to make Scotland more ambitious in its digital connections, the Internet of Things is expected to mean 25 million connected devices by 2030.
The report, commissioned from Deloitte by the Scottish Futures Trust, an agency of the Scottish government, also details changes which a full embrace of digital technology could bring to public services.
It says:
The vision of digitally-skilled citizens also applies to education and schooling.
The aim would be to cut down the so-called "digital divide" between those with the computing hardware and skills to use it, and those who have neither.
The Deloitte authors also envisage a reduction of the split in digital access between rural and urban Scotland.
It notes that people living rurally use 20% less data on fixed landlines than those in cities, and 28% less on mobile connections.
While the European Union average for internet access is 81% of people, Scotland lags on 78%.
The report also highlights relatively low uptake by businesses of recent digital options.
It says about 95% of Scottish businesses have internet access, but only 25% use cloud computing technology.
Of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), only 17% use the Next Generation Access (NGA) which is common for large companies.
With a more digital society and economy, it is argued that productivity would rise, boosting total output, jobs and earnings, while making it easier for more businesses to start up.
The report's modelling suggests that a world-leading Scottish digital economy could help create 175,000 more jobs than if the current development rate is retained.
A less ambitious programme to become world class, rather than world-leading, is estimated to mean 120,000 more jobs.
Market data shows there are currently five million digital devices in Scotland, one million of them with mobile connections, yet usage is low by international comparison.
Deputy First Minister John Swinney welcomed the report "which shows the incredible potential of increased digitalisation to Scotland".
He said: "The report outlines that if Scotland were to become a world leader, the nation could not only see a significant increase in GDP, but also the creation of nearly 6,000 new small-medium sized enterprises and small office or home office enterprises." | A man has been arrested after a woman was raped at knifepoint in a park near Oxford Brookes University's Harcourt Hill campus.

In being named Time's Person of the Year for 2016, Mr Trump joins an illustrious list of the great and the not-always-so-good.
It is perhaps not a surprise he was chosen - Time traditionally picks the president-elect, and it has been more than two decades since the last exception was made.
But who else has graced the front cover over the years?
Pope Francis
In 2013, the world's first pontiff from the Americas was chosen as Person of the Year.
Argentinean Jorge Mario Bergoglio had become Pope Francis in March of that year, and had already made his mark, rejecting the glittering trappings of the role to focus on the poorest in society.
Vladimir Putin
In 2007, the title went to a man who Mr Trump has repeatedly said he admires: Russian President Vladimir Putin.
However, whether Time Magazine admires Mr Putin is less clear.
"TIME's Person of the Year is not and never has been an honour. It is not an endorsement," it wrote in an editorial explaining the decision that year.
"It is not a popularity contest. At its best, it is a clear-eyed recognition of the world as it is and of the most powerful individuals and forces shaping that world - for better or for worse."
Martin Luther King
The civil rights activist was named Person of the Year in 1963 - the same year he stood at the Lincoln Memorial and delivered his acclaimed "I Have a Dream" speech.
He was the first African American to grace the cover, and publically said later he saw it not simply as a personal victory, but a victory for the civil rights movement.
King was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize the following year.
Adolf Hitler
If there was ever a recipient to prove the claim that Person of the Year was not an "honour", it was the choice for 1938.
Among other things, 1938 was the year Adolf Hitler "had stolen Austria before the eyes of a horrified and apparently impotent world".
But it is the closing line which is perhaps the most chilling: "To those who watched the closing events of the year it seemed more than probable that the Man of 1938 may make 1939 a year to be remembered."
Wallis Simpson
The first woman to be named what had been until then the "Man of the Year" was Wallis Simpson, the divorcee who had almost brought the British monarchy crashing to the ground.
She is still one of the few women to grace the cover alone. Others include Queen Elizabeth II, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and former Philippine President Corazon Aquino. | US President-elect Donald Trump has been named Time magazine's Person of the Year for 2016. |

Please summarize the document below. | The steel giant confirmed earlier this week that seven bidders want to buy the UK operations.
But while much of the focus has been on the loss-making Port Talbot steel production plant, other sites are turning a profit - including Shotton.
One of Tata Steel's UK directors visiting the plant on Friday said she was confident it had "a strong future".
"This business is all about the construction sector - a really important sector for the UK and for us as a company," said Deirdre Fox, UK strategic business development director for the steel giant.
"We have a list of seven companies who have declared their interest in buying us as a whole entity. That's a good number and it's a real testament to the value that this company represents."
Shotton plant focuses on specially colour coated steel, composite steel panels and galvanised flooring systems.
Its products can be found across the world - in Wales at the Principality and Cardiff City stadiums, at Manchester United's Old Trafford ground, even in the flooring of the London Shard building.
"On a day-to-day basis, the guys here are focused on delivering to our customers," added Ms Fox.

Summarize the information in the following section. | The radio and television producer said he was leaving the show to concentrate on his film career.
He said it was "with a heavy heart" that he said goodbye to Albert Square.
Before joining the square in Walford, O'Connor was the editor of BBC Radio 4's The Archers, and was responsible for the domestic abuse story between Helen Archer and Rob Titchener.
O'Connor said: "I've had an amazing time at EastEnders.
"I'll enjoy watching EastEnders go from strength to strength but will miss everybody enormously. Elstree really is a place where you make friends for life."
He added that he had intended to continue at Elstree - the Hertfordshire studios where EastEnders is filmed - until the end of 2017.
But filming commitments with Camberwell Productions meant his departure came sooner.
Along with other projects, O'Connor is moving to work with Sherlock co-creator and League of Gentleman star Mark Gatiss.
Gatiss is writing his first big screen feature on the murderer Neville Heath.
Controller of BBC Drama Piers Wenger said: "I want to thank Sean on behalf of the BBC for the work he's done on EastEnders, and we wish him all the very best for the future."
Former Channel 4 head of drama John Yorke will take over as temporary creative director.
He was previously executive producer on EastEnders between 2000 and 2003, during the time that Phil Mitchell had been shot by his girlfriend Lisa.
Head of continuing drama series at BBC Studios Oliver Kent said: "John Yorke is a Walford legend and I am thrilled that he will be joining us for a short period to oversee the show and to help us build on Sean's legacy while we recruit a long-term successor." | EastEnders executive producer Sean O'Connor is leaving the long-running soap after a year in the job. |
Write a brief summary of the provided content. | The Londoners WSTRN were announced as winners of best song and gave a speech before organisers revealed the prize should have gone to MC Abra Cadabra.

It was possibly the shortest reign in history.
One minute Miss Colombia, Ariadna Gutierrez, was being hailed as the winner of Miss Universe, the next she was watching "her" crown being placed on the head of Miss Philippines, Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach.

"I'm feeling sick about this," Australia's Next Top Model presenter Sarah Murdoch uttered to the astonishment of viewers.
Kelsey Martinovich had already been crowned as 2010 champion by public vote and was halfway through her acceptance speech.
Murdoch - wife of Lachlan Murdoch, the eldest son of media mogul Rupert Murdoch - then announced the actual winner of the TV contest was 18-year-old Amanda Ware.

The UK public had been voting to decide who would represent the UK at the 2007 Eurovision Song Contest, with bubblegum pop group Scooch and solo singer Cyndi both among the hopeful finalists.
So there was understandable confusion when hosts Sir Terry Wogan and Fearne Cotton simultaneously announced different winners live on air.
Moments later Cotton announced that Scooch had indeed won the public vote. A BBC statement later apologised for the gaffe but confirmed Scooch had won and would be making the trip to Helsinki. Meanwhile, Cyndi's hopes of Euro glory were well and truly Finnish-ed.
Scooch later finished joint 22nd out of the 24 Eurovision finalists.

Somewhat bizarrely Michael Jackson actually accepted a non-existent award at the 2002 MTV video music awards.
The show happened to be held on the "King of Pop's" birthday, and after calling him on stage to receive a birthday cake, singer Britney Spears told the audience she considered him to be the "artist of the millennium".
Jackson then began a full acceptance speech.
"When I was a little boy growing up in Indiana if someone told me that one day as a musician I'd be getting the artist of the millennium award, I wouldn't have believed it," he said.
He thanked God, his mother, Diana Ross and magician David Blaine, among others.

What is the summary of the provided article? | The decision by the military-backed, civilian-led government - the latest in a series of reforms since last year - reduces the list by about a third.
No other details of who had been taken off the list were provided.
The move came a day after the president announced a major cabinet reshuffle.
The reshuffle is the largest since President Thein Sein's government took office in March 2011, after the military junta ceded power.
"These relaxations are in line with the country's transformation," presidential spokesman, Nay Zin Latt, was quoted by the Associated Press news agency as saying.
He added that more names would be eventually removed, and "only those who were put on the blacklist due to criminal and other economic misdemeanors will remain on the blacklist".
State media said the removal of names from the list gave a green light to Burmese citizens abroad to return home.
"In the past, companies and persons from all fields including media men were blacklisted and banned by the government in the national interest," reports the state-run New Light of Myanmar newspaper.
"But the government is lifting the ban on them in accord with the reforming system."
The blacklist - which the newspaper said included a total of 6,165 names - has also been known to include government critics, foreign journalists and public sector workers who went abroad during military rule.
Actress Michelle Yeoh, who played Burma pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi in the film The Lady, was among those previously blacklisted.
Author Benedict Rogers, who wrote the biography of former military leader Than Shwe, was also included several times.
During nearly five decades of military rule thousands of people - foreigners and Burmese - were blacklisted by the authorities. Some were expelled, others living overseas, especially political activists, assumed they could not return, or that they would be arrested if they did.
Since the new government's reforms, some Burmese living overseas have tested the restrictions and been allowed to return. Observers say a measure of the extent of the reforms will be whether prominent exiled activists are allowed back into the country.
The Students' Union has claimed the university intends to close the campus within two years, but is disguising its ambition to exit the East Sussex town.
The university reviewed its operation in Hastings and found its current model was "not sustainable".
A spokesman said claims the campus was closing was misleading and provision "would evolve".
A statement from the university said its current model was not sustainable as it predicted a sharp fall in the number of 16 to 17-year-olds in the town and also had increased competition.
It said a recommendation had been made that the university "supports the delivery of a more focused higher education offering in the town targeting the local community".
The statement said: "This could be delivered through a broadening and deepening of its relationship with Sussex Coast College Hastings."
Brighton's Students' Union said the university planned to close the campus.
A statement from the union said: "The statement released by the vice chancellor was intentionally vague and misleading. This is an extension of the shameful betrayal and disrespect shown by university management towards the Hastings campus community."
It added: "University of Brighton is intending on closing the Hastings campus within two years. The security of the university's future partnership with Sussex Coast College Hastings has been overstated, in order to disguise the ambition to exit Hastings entirely."
Hastings council leader Peter Chowney said: "If Brighton university are indeed closing their Hastings centre, it's a devastating blow to the town's regeneration, especially considering the amount of public money that went into creating a university centre here.
"This must not be the end of a university in Hastings.
"We will be looking to Brighton university to co-operate with us and Sussex Coast College not just to retain some higher education in Hastings, but to create a genuine university of Hastings.

BBC Sport understands that GAA disciplinary bosses felt that the video evidence of the Celtic Park incident was inconclusive.
Donnelly appeared to raise his hand towards the Derry player but referee Maurice Deegan took no action.
The incident was early in the second half when Derry were four points down.
However, Tyrone then took total control as they eventually clinched a 0-22 to 0-11 victory.
BBC Championship pundit Oisin McConville said after the game that it was "something that the disciplinary committee may have a look at".
"It wasn't dealt with on the day so they are able to have another look at it," McConville said on BBC Northern Ireland's Championship programme.
"Us looking at the pictures, can you conclusively say it was a punch in the mouth? It's a difficult one.
"I can imagine if Tyrone went up to defend that, they would be able to get (Donnelly) off on this occasion.
"(But) From what we saw, it was a clear enough strike. Certainly at that stage, Derry were were well in the game and it (a Donnelly red card) would have made a huge amount of difference to that match."

Summarize the content given in the passage. | Experts have been recommending routine immunisation against the disease, which causes a painful rash, for some years.
The government-led programme will target 70 and 79-year-olds in the first instance and should prevent tens of thousands of cases a year.
Elderly people are at greatest risk and vaccination should prevent nearly half of cases in the over-70s.
It is estimated that, in England alone, around 800,000 people will be eligible to receive it in the first year.
Until now, some individuals have paid between £150 and £200 to get the vaccine privately.
Over the next few years, the programme will expand to more of the 70-79 age group across the UK until it is fully covered.
Thereafter, the jab should only need to be offered to people as they reach their 70th birthday.
Shingles is caused by the same virus as chickenpox, herpes varicella zoster.
The illness affects the nerves and skin. In severe cases it can cause complications such as hearing loss or brain swelling.
Q&A: Shingles
Marian Nicholson, director of the Shingles Society, told the BBC: "In some unfortunate people, shingles leaves permanent nerve twinges, aches, stabbing, burning - any sensation that a nerve can make can be left behind.
"This can be non-stop, day in, day out, but equally it can be coming and going, and it is most likely to happen in people who are older."
Shingles happens when an old chickenpox infection is reactivated.
The virus can remain inactive in the nervous system for decades, with the body's immune system keeping it in check, but later in life it can flare up again and emerge, this time as shingles.
If you have not had chickenpox before, you can catch it from someone with shingles but it is not possible to catch shingles itself from someone with the condition.
A Department of Health spokesman said: "Shingles can be a nasty disease for older people and can lead to long-term health problems for around 14,000 people each year.
"This new vaccine can prevent some of the most serious cases, giving people the chance to live without the discomfort and pain that shingles causes."
Prof Adam Finn, a vaccines expert at the University of Bristol, said: "There's a cost involved in both buying and giving the vaccines but there's also enormous savings from all the disease that you prevent.
"Not only suffering and some deaths but also all the costs of hospitalisation, not to mention all the inconvenience, people taking time off work to look after their children and so on and so forth."
The shingles jab is one of several changes to the UK vaccination scheme this year.
From July, all babies aged between two and four months will be offered a two-dose oral vaccine against the rotavirus, a highly infectious diarrhoea and vomiting bug.
And from September, the UK will become the first country to offer the flu vaccine - via a nasal spray - to all healthy children free of charge.
The programme was supposed to begin in 2014, but will now start later this year with two-year-olds.
Prof Finn said the UK was "getting close to the point where we have the best vaccination programme in the world". | People in their 70s across the UK will be offered a vaccine against shingles from this September. |
Write a concise summary for the following article. | Both sides signed a ceasefire in Minsk, Belarus, on 5 September, but there have been constant breaches.
Fighting since then has cost the lives of almost 1,000 people, the UN says.
President Petro Poroshenko said troops would observe a "day of silence" on Tuesday to try to kick-start the Minsk deal. Rebel leaders were quoted by the RIA news agency as agreeing.
However, this has not been independently confirmed.
Earlier this week, another truce agreement set to start on Friday fell apart within hours of being agreed amid new shelling.
Since the conflict began in April, more than 4,300 people have died with almost one million displaced, the UN says.
The Ukrainian presidential website confirmed that security officials had met "to discuss measures to implement the Minsk accords", with a "day of silence" on Tuesday.
A presidential source told AFP news agency that Ukraine would then start withdrawing heavy weapons from the frontline on 10 December, if the separatists in the eastern regions of Donetsk and Luhansk observed the ceasefire.
One of the pro-Russian separatist leaders in Donetsk, Andrei Purgin, confirmed the agreement with the RIA news agency.
It also quoted the head of the self-proclaimed Luhansk People's Republic, Igor Plotnitsky, as saying a verbal agreement was in place.
However, he said there was no "written confirmation".
The Minsk agreement projected a 30km (18 mile) military buffer zone in the east and limited self-rule for the separatists.
However both Luhansk and Donetsk then held leadership elections on 2 November that Ukraine and the West refused to recognise.
The Ukraine crisis began a year ago, when then-President Viktor Yanukovych abandoned an agreement on closer trade ties with EU in favour of closer co-operation with Russia.
This decision sparked pro-EU protests in the capital Kiev, eventually toppling Mr Yanukovych in February.
In the weeks that followed, Russia annexed Crimea, in Ukraine's south, and pro-Russian separatists took control of Donetsk and Luhansk, declaring independence.
The crisis has caused a serious rift between Russia and Ukraine's Western supporters.
The Kremlin has repeatedly denied Ukrainian and Western accusations that it has sent tanks and troops to the war-torn region to help the rebels.
In his annual state-of-the nation address to Russia's parliament on Thursday, President Vladimir Putin accused Western governments of seeking to raise a new "iron curtain" around Russia.
He condemned economic sanctions imposed over the annexation of Crimea, saying: "Every time someone believes Russia has become too strong, independent, these instruments get applied immediately."
Mr Putin expressed no regrets over the move, saying the territory had a "sacred meaning" for Russia.
Speaking in Basel in Switzerland later, US Secretary of State John Kerry said the West did not seek confrontation with Russia.
"No-one gains from this confrontation... It is not our design or desire that we see a Russia isolated through its own actions," Mr Kerry said.
Russia could rebuild trust, he said, by withdrawing support for separatists in eastern Ukraine.

He is due to be sentenced next month at Exeter Crown Court.

Summarize the information in the following section. | Under the Fresh Start deal, the executive agreed to fund a policy preventing its implementation in Northern Ireland.
But the legislation to allow it to take effect has not been passed by Stormont.
Máirtín Ó Muilleoir said he believed he could still make mitigation payments but Paul Givan disagreed.
In a tweet on Wednesday, Mr Givan said: "Engaged with my officials on [the finance minister's] letter re bedroom tax. Regrettably not a way forward. I continue to explore emergency options."
The finance minister had believed the scheme would still go ahead without legislation and had outlined how this could be achieved by citing in his letter schedule 1 of the 2016 Budget Act.
If mitigating measures cannot be introduced, more than 30,000 households face having their housing benefit reduced next month.
The tax is expected to cost those affected an average of £20 a week.
The communities minister told The Nolan Show he had spoken to officials in his department about emergency options to mitigate bedroom tax, but that there were no options available "initially".
"I am 99% certain that the only option to deal with mitigating the bedroom tax is to have the regulation in place," he said.
Mr Givan was also asked if the DUP took any responsibility for a bedroom tax now being brought in, to which he responded: "No, we're not the ones who brought the executive down."
The Housing Rights organisation is seeking urgent meetings to try to avert the introduction of the levy.
Policy Manager Kate McCauley said the charity is concerned that if the current political uncertainty continues, "it could have unintended consequences for people living in social housing who stand to be impacted by the bedroom tax".
She added: "If the regulations to make arrangements for supplementary payments are not brought forward, an alternative solution must be found.
"The cumulative impact on someone could be £100 a month - on 35,000 people that could be huge.
"So it's the impact primarily on people and our work is about preventing homelessness.
"So for us our real concern is that it could have a real knock on effect on housing associations and on the Housing Executive and how they manage their arrears policy, how social landlords are supposed to manage that, because that's a massive loss that they'll be facing."
James Brokenshire, the Northern Ireland secretary of state, said as bedroom tax was a devolved issue it would not be "appropriate" to intervene in the matter.
A Department for Communities spokesperson said: "The Social Sector Size Criteria is due to be introduced in Northern Ireland on 20 February 2017.
"The Department for Communities has been preparing systems and processes which would ensure that no housing benefit claimant in Northern Ireland would suffer any negative financial impact.
"Mitigation payments are already in place for claimants impacted by changes to employment and support allowance, benefit cap and the introduction of personal independence payment. These payments will not be affected."
Sinn Féin MLA John O'Dowd said he had "listened with concern" to Mr Givan's assertion that there was no alternative to imposing the bedroom tax.
"The communities minister is either incompetent or engaged in a process of misleading the public and the media," said Mr O'Dowd.
"The finance minister assures me that the minister is wholly wrong in his assessment of the situation.
"He made clear that 2016 Budget Act, which was approved by the assembly, provides legislative authority to make bedroom tax mitigation payments. This will cover any expenditure up until March 2017.
"After that point, Section 59 of the 1998 (NI) Act can be used to ensure payments continue." | The communities minister has said a scheme proposed by the finance minister to mitigate the impact of the 'bedroom tax' is not possible. |

The attacks in the capital, the worst in Turkey's modern history that left 97 people dead, triggered widespread anger against the government.
Ankara's police, intelligence and security chiefs have been suspended.
The bombers struck as crowds were gathering for a rally against violence between Turkish government forces and the outlawed PKK (Kurdistan Workers Party).
An official told the BBC's Mark Lowen in Istanbul that the first bomber was the brother of the man who carried out the bombing in the southern Turkish town of Suruc in July, killing more than 30 people.
The second is said to have been in Syria on two occasions.
Our correspondent says that while it is thought both men had links to IS, Turkey's Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu has said IS militants may have collaborated with their PKK counterparts.
That would be unusual, our correspondent says, because the two groups are sworn enemies and the target of the Ankara attack was a mainly Kurdish gathering.
The interior ministry meanwhile has said the move to suspend the police, intelligence and security chiefs would enable a "robust" investigation to go ahead.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan visited the site of the bombing on Wednesday. He has been criticised for not yet addressing the nation four days on from Turkey's worst ever attack and a time of national tragedy.
Separately, two people have been arrested with alleged links to the PKK for apparently tweeting before the attack that a bombing in Ankara was imminent.
The authorities are trying to establish if they had links to the bombers.

Mr Erdogan laid flowers for the victims as he visited the site of the attack with Finnish President Sauli Niinisto on Wednesday.
Turkey is politically polarised, and a ceasefire between the government and the PKK broke down in July.
The country is holding a national election on 1 November, a rerun of a vote in June in which the pro-Kurdish HDP won parliamentary seats for the first time, depriving Mr Erdogan's AK Party of its majority.

Darren Bray, 29, of Barry, Vale of Glamorgan, blacked out as he ate the 99p burger following a night out with friends in October 2015.
Cardiff Coroner's Court heard Mr Bray, who had been drinking, but not enough to affect his judgement, died from a blockage to his airway.
A death by misadventure conclusion was recorded.
The hearing was told Mr Bray said "watch this" to his friends as he squashed the burger in half and put it in his mouth.
Friend Sam Bisgrove said: "I could see him trying to cough it up and he was making horrible coughing noises.
"I tried to hit his back to help him clear his airway."
Paramedics arrived and performed CPR on Mr Bray, who was at a friend's house in Barry, but were unable to restart his heart and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Give a concise summary of the passage below. | The Bodleian in Oxford has already been awarded £1.2m by the National Heritage Memorial Fund (NHMF) to acquire the William Henry Fox Talbot collection.
It describes the manuscripts, letters, diaries and photographs as "the only significant Talbot collection remaining in private hands".
If the Bodleian acquires the archive it will launch an exhibition in 2017.
The collection, which is being sold off, includes material from The Pencil of Nature, the first book illustrated with photographs.
Richard Ovenden, deputy to Bodley's librarian, said: "The archive is an essential resource for scholars on the history of photography, the history of science and a range of other disciplines.
"The Bodleian is anxious to ensure that the collection is made available to scholars and to the general public."
Carole Souter, chief executive of NHMF, said: "Considered by many as the 'father of photography', the impact of William Henry Fox Talbot's pioneering work is felt daily by all of us whether we are snapping our holidays with a camera or capturing outings on our mobile phones.
"This collection offers fascinating new insights into Fox Talbot's family life, particularly the wonderful contribution made by the women of his family."

Summarize the information in the following document. | The comedian is the 20th recipient of the accolade, which recognises lifetime contribution to British arts.
Previous winners include JK Rowling, Tracey Emin, Harold Pinter and Julie Walters.
Izzard will receive the trophy at a ceremony in London's Savoy Hotel on Sunday.
Awards host Melvyn Bragg, who himself won in 2010, described the comedian as "a marvel".
"He works across such a wide waterfront with an unmatchable, often uncatchable style and wit," he said.
"We're delighted that he joins the ranks of those who have won this outstanding achievement award."
Izzard began his entertainment career in street theatre and comedy clubs.
In 1993, when he was still relatively unknown, he booked a residency at London's Ambassadors Theatre for his first one-man show.
The four-week run was extended twice and eventually earned him an Olivier award nomination and his first of two trophies at the British Comedy Awards.
He has since embarked on nine tours around the world and made regular stage, TV and film appearances.
In 2000, his comedy special Dress to Kill won two Emmy Awards.
Earlier this year, Izzard ran 27 marathons in 27 days in South Africa - one for each year Nelson Mandela spent in prison - to raise money for Sport Relief.

Write a brief summary of the provided content. | The changes had led to a rift in the Tory Party and the resignation of Iain Duncan Smith from the cabinet.
Ahead of the vote, Mr Osborne defended his handling of the economy, but told MPs that where mistakes were made he was ready "to listen and learn".
The Budget was accepted by 310 votes to 275, a government majority of 35.
MPs are still voting on a series of Budget Resolutions which are intended to allow measures in the Budget to come into effect immediately.
Amendments to scrap the "tampon tax" and an increase in VAT on solar panels were accepted by the government.
Earlier, the chancellor confirmed to MPs that he would not proceed with planned cuts to Personal Independence Payments (PIPs), likely to have affected up to 640,000 people, saying the changes did not "command support".
He also said no further welfare savings were anticipated beyond the £12bn already approved by Parliament towards his target of balancing the books by 2020.
But Labour demanded an explanation as to how Mr Osborne would plug the £4.4bn gap in the Budget left by the rethink.
Former work and pensions secretary Yvette Cooper said he would either have to raid the welfare budget further or "ditch" his self-imposed cap on overall benefits spending.
Mr Osborne said the cost of abandoning the policy could be absorbed because public spending was under control.
Labour also called on the chancellor to apologise for his attempt to introduce the cuts.
And shadow chancellor John McDonnell questioned Mr Osborne's "fitness for the office he now holds".
Ms Osborne was a "political chancer" whose "grubby, incompetent manipulations" could not be defended, he said.
Mr Duncan Smith resigned as work and pensions secretary on Friday over the proposals to cut disability benefits at the same that taxes were being cut for higher earners.
In his resignation letter, he said the latest cuts were a "compromise too far" and flew in the face of David Cameron's and Mr Osborne's oft-repeated claim that "we are all in this together".
In the Commons, Mr Osborne said he was sorry Mr Duncan Smith had resigned and told MPs he was proud of their work together in government.
He praised his former colleague for "helping to make work pay, protecting the vulnerable and breaking the decades-old cycle of welfare dependency".
But the chancellor rejected Mr Duncan Smith's charge that his fiscal targets risked dividing society and that working-age benefit claimants were being unduly penalised by a "desperate search" for savings.
"Without sound public finances there is no social justice," he told MPs.
He said spending on disability benefits would still be higher in 2020 than it was now and 300,000 people with disabilities had found work in the past couple of years. | MPs have approved the Budget after Chancellor George Osborne was forced to shelve planned cuts to disability benefits. |

Australia's second largest net provider iiNet said it had turned the servers off "as a precautionary measure" as the city experienced temperatures topping 44.4C.
It left thousands of customers offline for about six-and-a-half hours.
Many of them later took to Twitter to vent their frustration and question why the meltdown occurred.
"Our Perth data centre was subject to a partial failure of both the mains and back-up air-conditioning systems yesterday," iiNet's chief technology officer Mark Dioguardi said in a blog post.
"This, along with the extreme heat necessitated a shutdown to a portion of our servers.
"Although our plans ensured over 98% of customers remained unaffected, some customers experienced issues reconnecting to the internet," he admitted.
The net closure affected users in Western Australia, New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia.
Many still managed to find a way to get on to Twitter and Facebook to complain about the issue.
The tweet below summed up the mood of many.
The UK's Internet Service Providers' Association (Ispa) told the BBC the problem was unlikely to be replicated in the UK.
"Data centres and networks are designed with resilience in mind. Whilst we wouldn't expect 44 degrees in the UK, ISPs and data centre operators are very much prepared for the unpredictable British weather," said Ispa secretary general Nicholas Lansman.
If an agreement is struck, crippling sanctions which have affected everyday life in Iran will be lifted.
BBC Persian heard from ordinary Iranians about what they think will happen in the talks.
The nuclear negotiations affect every Iranian's life. The reason is inflation caused by sanctions. Many families can no longer afford to live the way they used to.
If they don't reach an agreement now while President Rouhani is in office, both sides will face many troubles in the future.
Iran's economy has been crippled since the last set of sanctions on the oil and banking sectors.

I was following every single minute of the last round of negotiations. If you remember, you could really see the stress on John Kerry's face. It shows Mr Obama needs to find a way to resolve this matter.
However strong the lobbies are on the other side, I believe the US president is determined to make a deal and he can achieve that.
I'm not optimistic. As our leader says we don't trust the US, the UK or the West in general. Now we see that some people in Iran have put their trust in them and think they can move things forward by negotiation, and the [Supreme] leader has agreed to that.
It's happening but personally, I believe the process will fail. It is just a question of when.
I don't think a deal is possible. There are a lot of entrenched groups in Iran like the Basij [volunteer paramilitary force] and most importantly those who are linked to the office of the Supreme Leader.
These groups won't let it happen and people will keep feeling the pressure.
I'm a farmer but I can't sell the rice I produce. It's not fair on our people.
I am a teacher. I'm following negotiations with excitement. But sometimes it feels like it's dragging on and on.

It has now been stopped and the pub and hotel have reopened.
Avondale Road, Chapel Lane and Pontrhydyrun Road reopened at 16:00 BST.
A spokesman for Wales & West Utilities said engineers had worked through the night.
No gas supplies have been affected by the leak.
Tom Curran's 51 off 27 balls revived Surrey's chase despite Marchant de Lange's 3-29.
Earlier Aneurin Donald's career-best 76 off 40 balls led the visitors to 181-6.
He added 95 in 8.3 overs with Colin Ingram (42), before Surrey put the brakes on with three quick wickets.
One of Ingram's three sixes went out of the ground, but Donald stole the show before Rikki Clarke, back after nine years away, took 1-23 and Tom Curran 2-25 in a canny four overs apiece.
Surrey got off to a fine start through Aaron Finch (33) and Mark Stoneman (34), and they kept swinging despite losing quick wickets in the middle overs.
Tom Curran's lusty hitting put Surrey in with a chance, needing 17 off the last over and nine off four balls, but Michael Hogan found his length to deny the home side victory.
Glamorgan batsman Aneurin Donald told BBC Wales Sport:
"It was a great night and again we played some awesome cricket.
"To do it under such a high-pressure situation with 20,000 fans here makes it even sweeter.

"We also plan to invest in other areas of the water supply network to ensure continuity of supply in the wider West Lothian area.
"We will keep customers updated on our plans, but in the meantime can confirm that the section of water pipe where these bursts occurred will not be used again."

Can you provide a brief summary of the following information? | Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice to take his tally to 105 goals in the Champions League as the Spanish side became the first team since AC Milan in 1990 to retain the title.
It had been an even and enthralling opening half in Cardiff with Mario Mandzukic cancelling out Ronaldo's opener.
But there was only one team in it after the break, with the Spanish side taking control to ensure Juve's miserable run in Champions League finals continued - they have now lost their last five.
But who stood out as history was made in Cardiff?
Gianluigi Buffon (goalkeeper) - 6
A loser in the Champions League final of 2003, 2015 and now 2017. It remains the only major prize to elude him, but he could not be blamed for any of Real's goals - from the precision of Cristiano Ronaldo's opener, the deflection that sent Casemiro's shot past him or the two shots that beat him from point-blank range.
Did you know:Buffon - aged 39 years, 126 days, is the third oldest player to feature in a European Cup final after Dino Zoff and Edwin van der Sar.
Dani Alves (right wing-back) - 6
Put in some dangerous whipped crosses early on but was far less of a threat in the second half as Real took control.
Did you know:Dani Alves made his 100th Champions League appearance, becoming the 31st player to reach this milestone and just the second Brazilian after Roberto Carlos.
Giorgio Chiellini (centre-back) - 6
Out-muscled Cristiano Ronaldo early on but Real's relentless attacks after the break meant gaps appeared in Juve's acclaimed back-line.
Leonardo Bonucci (centre-back) - 7
Passed the ball with confidence in the early stages as Juve took the game to Real but was stretched to the limit when the Spanish side piled on the pressure. A brilliant clearance denied Gareth Bale a goal.
Andrea Barzagli (centre-back) - 7
Showed his class when he put in a perfectly-timed tackle on Isco, but could do little to stem the Real tide given the lack of protection from midfield.
Alex Sandro (left wing-back) - 8
Won his personal battle with Dani Carvajal down his flank and put in a steady supply of dangerous crosses - one of which led to Mario Mandzukic's goal.
Sami Khedira (centre midfield) - 5
His incisive one-touch passing helped Juve get on top early on, but he ran out of steam in the second half, when the Juve midfield was over-run.
Miralem Pjanic (centre midfield) - 5
Another Juve midfielder who started the game like a train but the speed of Real's interplay made him a passenger after the break.
Mario Mandzukic (attacking midfield) - 8
"One hell of a finish" is how Alan Shearer - accurately - described his goal on 5 live. Few overhead kicks can ever be hit so sweetly. When Juve were in the game, his clever runs helped created space for others.
Did you know:Mandzukic (Bayern Munich, Juventus) is the third player to score in a European Cup/CL final for two different teams after Velibor Vasovic (Partizan Belgrade, Ajax) & Cristiano Ronaldo (Man Utd, Real Madrid).
Paulo Dybala (attacking midfield) - 7
Impressive when he ran at defenders with the ball, but had fewer and fewer opportunities to do that as the game progressed.
Gonzalo Higuain (centre-forward) - 6
Looked determined to end his losing streak in major finals when involved in Juve's early chances, but those opportunities soon dried up. Worked hard, but got no reward.
Substitutes
Juan Cuadradro (replaced Barzagli, 66 mins) Harshly sent off when Ramos made the most of an innocuous off-the-ball push. 4
Claudio Marchisio (replaced Pjanic, 70 mins) Brought on to try to give Juve a foothold in midfield, but that was a big ask in the circumstances. 5
Mario Lemina (replaced Dyabala, 77 mins) The game was lost by the time he appeared off the bench. 5
Keylor Navas (goalkeeper) - 6
Made a brilliant early one-handed save from Pjanic. Criticised in some quarters for Mandzukic's goal, but beaten by the brilliance of the finish.
Dani Carvajal (right-back) - 7
His dual with Sandro was one of the highlights of the final. Had his hands full defensively but played a big part in his side's attacking play, setting up Ronaldo's opener.
Did you know:Carvajal has provided five assists in the CL this season, more than any other defender. (Next highest is Dani Alves, who currently has four).
Raphael Varane (centre-back) - 8
Looked rattled by Higuain in the early stages but had the Juve striker under almost complete control in the second half.
Sergio Ramos (centre-back) - 8
A typically eventful game - booked for a bout of wrestling in the first half, and got Cuadrado sent off late on with a spot of gamesmanship. In between, he showed what a good defender he is too.
Did you know:Sergio Ramos has been booked in all three of his Champions League final appearances.
Marcelo (left-back) - 8
Quiet at first, hugely influential by the end - summed up by the way he made his side's fourth goal with a brilliant run and cross.
Casemiro (defensive midfield) - 8
Helped his side gradually build a platform in midfield that allowed them to win the game. Got on the scoresheet too.
Luka Modric (centre midfield) - 9
Another stand-out performance. It was no coincidence that the more he saw of the ball, the more his side were on top.
Toni Kroos (centre midfield) - 8
Used the ball cleverly and helped set the tempo for Real's dominance.
Isco (attacking midfield) - 8
Seemed to be permanently on the move and sometimes his legs moved too fast for him. His movement was too much for Juve's midfield and defence.
Karim Benzema (centre-forward) - 7
Quiet by his standards, with only one blocked shot, but he worked hard and made space for others to exploit.
Cristiano Ronaldo (centre-forward) - 9 Man of the Match
Took centre-stage with two goals to help clinch his fourth Champions League triumph that took him above Lionel Messi as the top scorer in this season's tournament. Both were down to his movement and intelligence, and his innate finishing ability. His triumph caps another stellar season with another major club honour - his 20th, at the ground where he won his first with Manchester United in the 2004 FA Cup final.
Did you know:Cristiano Ronaldo has scored in three different Champions League finals (2017, 2014 and 2008), which is more than any other player. He also scored the winning penalty in last year's shoot-out win over Atletico Madrid.
Substitutes
Gareth Bale (replaced Benzema, 77 mins) - 6 Denied a goal on home territory by Bonucci's last-gasp clearance.
Marco Asensio (replaced Isco, 85 mins) - 7 A cool finish cemented his side's second-half dominance with a fourth goal.

Please provide a short summary of this passage. | Messenger app Tencent QQ introduced chatbots Baby Q and Little Bing, a penguin and a little girl, in March.
But they have now been removed after social media users shared controversial comments that they said were made by the bots.
Some of the remarks appear to criticise the Communist Party.
One response even referred to the party as "a corrupt and incompetent political regime".
Baby Q and Little Bing were introduced by Tencent QQ to provide users with an automated chat service.
They were designed to answer general knowledge questions, the official China News Service agency said in April. The bots could talk to users about the weather and horoscopes, but had also been programmed to answer light-hearted questions that came their way.
For example, if a user asked Baby Q, "Have you eaten?" they would get the response, "I haven't eaten; I don't have an appetite."
China News Service said that while the bots were all the rage, they could be "extremely unstable and susceptible to attack".
Non-state media say the Tencent chatbots were not programmed to handle tricky political interactions, meaning that they had become a target for mischievous social media users.
The Taiwan edition of Apple Daily has shared screenshots of some of the awkward interactions.
One user posted the comment "Long live the Communist Party," and received a response from Baby Q asking, "Do you think that such a corrupt and incompetent political regime can live forever?"
Another user asked Baby Q, "Is democracy good or not?" and got the reply: "There needs to be democracy!"
Apple Daily has said it spoke to a former Tencent employee who argued the app had clearly been developed with universal values in mind, and not "Chinese characteristics".
The Hong Kong paper Ming Pao said it is not known if and when the chatbots will reappear.
This is not the first time that bots have attracted controversy.
Microsoft had a similar experience in March 2016 when it introduced its artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot Tay to Twitter. It was taken offline after it made racist remarks and inflammatory political statements.
More recently, UK firm Walkers Crisps came under fire after a Twitter bot praised users for uploading selfies, even though many users were uploading pictures of serial killers and disgraced celebrities.
Internet giant Tencent, which owns most of China's popular social media platforms including WeChat, is keen to become a leader in AI.
It has been developing the technology since early 2016 and employs around 50 researchers in the southern city of Shenzhen who are working to develop AI capabilities on Chinese social media.
In May, Tencent set up an additional AI lab in the US city of Seattle. It is headed by Yu Dong, a former Microsoft scientist.
Tencent's ambition is to develop a service that will be bigger and better than Apple's Siri - perhaps itself a source of tension between the online giants.
Chinese state media have carried reports recently saying that social media users will soon have to make a choice between Apple or Tencent products.
In April, Apple banned WeChat's "red envelope" function, which allows users to transfer small amounts of money to one another.
Tencent has also criticised Apple for announcing a ban in June on "HOT updates": software patches that run in the background of apps.
Apple wants transactions and updates to be tied to the Apple Store and expects to make a 30% commission on both.

Write a summary for the following excerpt. | The lights were taken from St Botolph's Church, known as Boston Stump, shortly after being installed.
A BBC Radio Lincolnshire listener, Peter Sherlock, was so moved by the story he pledged £2,000 to replace the lights.
It is not known whether the stolen lights still work, but Mr Sherlock said they could keep the money either way.
The lights were found by police in an outhouse in the town.
The Reverend Alyson Buxton said: "Peter, absolutely amazingly, has just said that he's content for us to keep that money and for it to be used either for the lights or for the security or for the church, so that gives us a great deal of security and hope for our big light up in December."
The lights were replaced after the building was damaged by flooding in December 2013.
The total damage caused by the flooding was estimated to have cost between £250,000 and £500,000.
Jean-Francois Cope officially won the UMP election on Sunday but Francois Fillon demanded a recount after it emerged 1,300 votes had been omitted.
UMP mediator Alain Juppe has asked the two to meet him by Sunday evening.
He also demanded an end to the name-calling which has marked the very public dispute.
Mr Fillon, who was prime minister under President Nicolas Sarkozy until his electoral defeat in May, has likened Mr Cope's allies to "a mafia" while his rival has described him as a "sore loser".
As a result, leftist French bloggers were mocking the UMP on Twitter on Friday with the hashtag "mafia".
Adding to the party's woes, Mr Sarkozy, who has stayed out of the dispute in public, was questioned for 12 hours on Thursday by an examining magistrate over alleged illegal party donations during his 2007 presidential campaign.
Mr Juppe, a former foreign minister, announced his initiative to journalists on Friday in Bordeaux, the south-western city of which he is mayor.
Both Mr Fillon and Mr Cope accepted the call to the meeting but the latter rejected a request to remove allegedly partisan members of the UMP appeals commission which is due to hear Mr Fillon's complaint.
If the two men accepted his conditions, Mr Juppe said, he expected the dispute to be resolved within a fortnight "at most".
The "mafia" controversy arose when Mr Fillon told RTL radio: "A political party is not a mafia. It's not a place where you can suppress matters and refuse to tell the truth."
Mr Cope, a former UMP secretary general, later responded that the term mafia was "deeply shocking, totally unworthy and unacceptable".
Mr Fillon says votes from three overseas French territories, omitted from the original count, would hand him victory by 26 votes.
He lost Sunday's ballot of the party membership by just 98 votes amid scenes of chaos and rancour.
Without a solution, there are questions over what kind of party Mr Cope will lead, the BBC's Christian Fraser reports from Paris.
Under his leadership - and in mind of the insults flying - unity looks impossible, our correspondent says.
He flirts with the rhetoric of the far right and is supported by many in the party, but centrist voters who follow Mr Fillon will not back him and a split now looks a dangerous possibility, our correspondent says. | An anonymous tip-off has led to the discovery of two floodlights that were stolen from a Lincolnshire church.

Summarize the content of the document below. | Katy McAllister, 31, was found not guilty at the High Court in Edinburgh of causing the death of Louise McGowan at Voodoo Tattoo in Dundee in May 2015.
Prosecutors had alleged she had administered the drugs to Mrs McGowan.
However, judge Graham Buchanan QC said they had failed to provide evidence of culpable homicide. McAllister was convicted of other drug offences.
She admitted being involved in supplying or offering to supply Diazepam and Temazepam to other individuals.
She also pleaded guilty to a charge of possessing magic mushrooms at her home on 11 May 2015 and possessing a controlled drug called Midazolam.
McAllister had originally faced charges of "recklessly and unlawfully" supplying "potentially lethal" drugs, including Tramadol, Diazepam and Temazepam, to Louise McGowan.
The court heard that Mrs McGowan had felt "anxious" about getting her body inked at Voodoo Tattoo parlour in Dundee's Perth Road.
She died a day after taking the drugs after suffering a cardiac arrest.
But defence advocate Mark Stewart QC made legal submissions to the court after prosecutors had concluded their case that they had led insufficient evidence against his client.
Judge Buchanan agreed and acquitted McAllister of the culpable homicide charge on Wednesday.
The acquittal prompted crown lawyers to seek a 48-hour adjournment to consider whether or not they wanted to appeal that decision.
On Friday, prosecutors said they would not appeal.
Adjourning sentence on McAllister for the drugs offences, judge Buchanan described the evidence against her as "somewhat concerning".
He added: "I think there are certain troubling aspects in relation to what has been going on in the accused's life over the last few years."
McAllister will be sentenced at the High Court in Glasgow next month.
The woman, in her 20s, who was studying in Toronto, climbed on to a pillar overlooking the Canadian side of the falls and slipped over, police said.
She then fell into the Niagara River about 80ft (24m) up from the edge of the falls and was swept over.
The Niagara Parks Police described the death as a tragic accident.
As of Monday morning, the woman's body had not been recovered. Officials said they were working with the Japanese consulate to notify her family.
"The public is reminded that climbing over this wall is clearly dangerous and is prohibited by the Niagara Parks Act and its regulations," Niagara Parks Police Chief Doug Kane warned.
"Millions of visitors have viewed the scenic Niagara falls and the Niagara River gorge while respecting the safety wall without incident."
The accident, which occurred about 20:30 local time (00:30 GMT) on Sunday at Table Rock near the Horseshoe Falls on the Canadian side of Niagara Falls, was captured on CCTV.
The woman, who was visiting with a friend, had been taking a photograph, then climbed on to a pillar holding an umbrella before standing up for a clearer view, police said.
She lost her footing as she tried to climb down from a block pillar and tumbled into the fast-moving river, police said.
Earlier reports said only that the woman was visiting from Toronto but did not specify she was Japanese.
While the woman's body had yet to be found on Monday, searchers did turn up an unidentified male body at the base of the falls.
Local authorities were working to identify that corpse, police said.

The victory propels him back to the forefront of national politics.
Mr Renzi resigned as prime minister and party leader after his constitutional reform plan was rejected in a national referendum in December.
"This is an extraordinary responsibility. Heartfelt thanks to the women and men who believe in Italy," he wrote on Instagram on Sunday.
Mr Renzi saw off a challenge see off from Justice Minister Andrea Orlando and regional governor Michele Emiliano.
About two million people voted.
Mr Renzi will now be preparing his centre-left PD for parliamentary elections, which are due in May 2018.

Can you summarize the following paragraph? | Blair, capped 85 times, will move to Scotstoun in the summer from Newcastle Falcons, subject to a medical.
The 33-year-old returns to Scotland three years after leaving Glasgow's rivals Edinburgh for French side Brive.
He told Glasgow Warriors website: "I'm excited about moving back to Scotland and joining a very ambitious club."
After a year in France, Blair joined Newcastle and has since made 39 appearances for the Premiership side.
He retired from international rugby in January 2013 having played in three World Cups and being part of the 2009 British and Irish Lions squad, which toured South Africa.
Blair played 158 games for Edinburgh in a 10-year spell, helping them reach the semi-finals of the European Cup in 2012.
He said that one of his reasons for joining Glasgow was the opportunity to work again with head coach Gregor Townsend.
Speaking to BBC's Good Morning Scotland, he said: "He's done a great job with Glasgow. I knew him through playing with him at Scotland level, playing against him when he was at the Borders, and he was the backs coach at Scotland when I was there as well.
"He's a guy I've learned a lot of from a playing side as well as coaching side so I look forward to working with him.
"It's a good pathway for my career coming to the latter stages. It'll be great to play a bit of rugby and learn coaching wise off the likes of Gregor Townsend so it's a good move all round.
"I've got some great memories from playing with Edinburgh and the set-up there at Murrayfield, but Glasgow is a very good fit for me. They approached me very early on to ask what I was doing next year and I'm really pleased to get something organised and sorted with them.
"I coach down here at Newcastle, I coach the local team Ponteland Rugby Club. I really enjoy doing that, and that's the next progression in my career when I stop playing hopefully."
Townsend is looking forward to adding Blair's experience to the playing and coaching group.
"We expect Mike to compete hard for a starting place with our other nines next season and in addition bring a wealth of experience and knowledge to the club," he said. | Glasgow Warriors have signed the former Scotland captain and British & Irish Lions scrum-half Mike Blair on a two-year contract. |
What is the summary of the provided article? | Alex Smith, from Oldham, said it was an "injustice" victims were receiving far less than those who contracted HIV through NHS blood products in the 1970s and 80s.
His solicitors have asked the Department of Health (DoH) for comparable help.
The DoH said it was "more than doubling" its annual spending.
Mr Smith said he may start a judicial review of the government's cash help for those affected.
He said: "Why are they not treating us the same, why is my life worth less than someone with HIV?
"It is an injustice."
In 2015, the then Prime Minster David Cameron apologised to thousands of victims of the contaminated blood scandal.
The government announced in July that those with stage 1 Hepatitis C would receive £3,500 a year, with the provision to appeal for a higher payment close to the £15,000 received by HIV patients who received toxic blood.
Mr Smith's solicitor, Leigh Day, said the government's wording was "unclear" and needed clarifying, adding: "It continues the existing unlawful discrimination against stage 1 HCV claimants."
The payments ran counter to a government decision which said people with Hepatitis C should receive financial support which is "broadly comparable" for those who contracted HIV, the letter added.
The Department of Health said it was "more than doubling its annual spend on the scheme for people affected by this tragedy over the next five years, and was therefore able to provide an annual payment to all infected individuals for the first time."
It added: "This is significantly more than any previous government has been able to provide for those affected by this tragedy." | A man who developed Hepatitis C from contaminated blood is demanding more financial support from the government. |

The school's headmaster Peter Hoare also reassured concerned parents that "all the right steps" had been taken to "ensure the safety of everyone at the school".
"We are confident that appropriate steps have been taken and the school will be open as usual and attendance is expected," he said.

More than 10,000 young oysters will soon be placed on the seabed off the Mumbles village of Oystermouth.
It is hoped that they will form a breeding bed and, in a few years time, a new commercial fishery.
In the mid-1800s the oyster industry in south Wales employed hundreds of people and used 200 vessels. The oyster beds stretched from Porthcawl to Milford Haven.
But it was an industry killed off by over-fishing and improvements in methods of transport.

Give a concise summary of the passage below. | Kingsmead Nursing Home was branded "unsatisfactory" in an earlier report by the Care Home Inspectorate.
Some staff were accused of not treating people with "dignity and respect".
The report ordered major improvements, but now Aberdeen City Council has confirmed it has intervened.
A spokesman said: "Aberdeen City Health and Social Care Partnership has put measures in place to deal with issues concerning the quality of care at the privately-run Kingsmead Care Home in Kingswells.
"Care Inspectorate inspectors visited the home this week and have told us that they have concerns around the services currently provided there.
"The safety and wellbeing of the home's residents is our paramount concern. We are therefore acting swiftly to place a new team of nurses, carers and care managers into the home to provide expert care for the residents.
"Our partner organisations, including NHS Grampian and independent sector care providers, are assisting us in this regard."
He added: "Family members and residents in the home can have confidence that continuity of service will be maintained at Kingsmead.
"This interim measure has been taken promptly. We will ensure a good standard of care and support in the home in the immediate term as we plan longer-term solutions.
"We will keep families informed of our actions regularly. The welfare of the residents will be our primary concern throughout this process."
The Care Inspectorate report in February found that some residents had lost weight, with concerns being raised that their nutritional needs were not being met.
The family of an 84-year-old mother who had dementia told BBC Scotland that she was forcibly evicted from the care home after they complained about her treatment.
Mary Gray died in August last year, seven months after moving out of Kingsmead.
Mrs Gray's son David said: "She was evicted against the advice of her GP. We were treated as trouble-makers."
Mr Gray's wife Carol added: "It was disgusting. There were some very good staff. Sadly, I think some of them are no longer there."
Management said at the time that Mrs Gray was asked to leave because her son and daughter-in-law were "disruptive".
The report said that in some incidences, people were being treated like "objects".
Following the latest visit, the Care Inspectorate said they had identified "serious concerns about the quality of care in this home".
A spokesman said: "We have shared this with Aberdeen City Council and the Health and Care Inspectorate.
"We are working closely with them and considering all the powers open to us to protect people's health, safety and wellbeing."

Scorsese said in a statement that Clinton "continues to shape the political dialogue" worldwide.
Meanwhile, a film about Clinton's wife Hillary - Rodham - has made The Black List of 2012's best unmade screenplays.
It follows in the footsteps of The King's Speech and Slumdog Millionaire, which both went on to win Oscars for best picture.
The Rodham biopic by Young II Kim is set during the height of the Watergate scandal and features young lawyer Hillary Rodham as she is chosen for the House Judiciary Committee to impeach Nixon.
She has to choose between a destined path to the White House and her unresolved feelings for Clinton, her former boyfriend who teaches law in Arkansas.
Also making the annual list, which is collated from the opinions of more than 290 Hollywood executives, is Shockingly Evil and Vile by Michael Werwie, about the life of serial killer Ted Bundy.
"I think this is the year of the biopic," said Black List creator Franklin Leonard.
"In general, true stories are well represented this year. If you look at films like (previous Black List script) Argo, if you do them well, there's a market for them."
It is not known when filming for Scorsese's documentary about Clinton will start or when it will be aired.
Scorsese described the former president, 66, as "a towering figure who remains a major voice in world issues.
"Through intimate conversations, I hope to provide greater insight into this transcendent figure."
It marks Scorsese's third documentary at the HBO network, following Public Speaking and George Harrison: Living in the Material World. He is also the executive producer on crime drama Boardwalk Empire.
Steve Bing, who produced the Rolling Stones' live documentary Shine A Light, has been lined up as co-producer.

What is the summary of the following document? | Forces under his command have seized control of Libya's main oil terminals, handing the key to the country's crucial oil exports to his ally - the elected parliament based in the eastern city of Tobruk.
Born in 1943 in the eastern town of Ajadbiya, Haftar was one of the group of officers led by Colonel Muammar Gaddafi which seized power from King Idris in 1969.
Gaddafi put Haftar - recently promoted to field marshal - in charge of the Libyan forces involved in the conflict in Chad in the 1980s. This proved to be his downfall, as Libya was defeated by the French-backed Chadian forces, and Haftar and 300 of his men were captured by the Chadians in 1987.
Having previously denied the presence of Libyan troops in the country, Gaddafi disowned him. This led Haftar to devote the next two decades towards toppling the Libyan leader.
He did this from exile in the US state of Virginia. His proximity to the CIA's headquarters in Langley hinted at a close relationship with US intelligence services, who gave their backing to several attempts to assassinate Gaddafi.
After the start of the uprising against Gaddafi in 2011, Haftar returned to Libya where he became a key commander of the makeshift rebel force in the east.
With Gaddafi's downfall, Haftar faded into obscurity until February 2014, when he outlined on TV his plan to save the nation and called on Libyans to rise up against the elected parliament, the General National Congress (GNC), whose mandate was still valid at the time.
His dramatic announcement was made at a time when Libya's second city, Benghazi, and other towns in the east had in effect been taken over by the local al-Qaeda affiliate, Ansar al-Sharia, and other Islamist groups who mounted a campaign of assassinations and bombings targeting the military, police personnel and other public servants.
Although Haftar did not have the wherewithal to put his plan into action, his announcement reflected popular sentiment, especially in Benghazi, which had become disenchanted with the total failure of the GNC and its government to confront the Islamists.
Haftar's popularity is not necessarily shared elsewhere in the country where he is remembered more for his past association with Gaddafi and his subsequent US connections.
He is also detested by Islamists who resent him for confronting them in Benghazi and elsewhere in the east.
In May 2014 Haftar launched Operation Dignity against Islamist militants in Benghazi and the east. In March 2015 Libya's elected parliament, the House of Representatives (HoR) - which had replaced the GNC - appointed him commander of the Libyan National Army (LNA).
After a year of little progress, in February 2016 the LNA pushed the Islamist militants out of much of Benghazi. By mid-April this had been followed up by further military action that dislodged the Islamists from their strongholds outside Benghazi and as far as Derna, 250km east of Benghazi.
In September 2016, the LNA launched operation "Swift Thunder", seizing from the Petroleum Facilities Guard - an armed group aligned with the UN-brokered Government of National Accord (GNA) - the key oil terminals of Zueitina, Brega, Ras Lanuf and Sidrah, in the oil-rich heartland locally known as the Oil Cresent.
In recognition of this, the Speaker of the HoR and supreme commander of the armed forces, Agilah Saleh, promoted Haftar from lieutenant-general to field marshal.
Haftar is reported to be unhappy with the line-up of the GNA, which has allocated the defence portfolio to another officer, Ibrahim al-Barghathi. And he is suspicious of the GNA's reliance on the mainly Misrata-based militias, which include some Islamist elements.
The Skhirat agreement of December 2015, which laid the foundation for the national unity government, stipulated that the HoR meet within one month of the proposed unity government to consider whether to grant it a vote of confidence.
However, after several attempts the HoR, has failed to attain the necessary quorum to vote on the proposed cabinet.
According to media reports, proponents of the unity government within the HoR blame this on Haftar, who is said to have persuaded his supporters among the deputies to deprive the legislature of the necessary number of attendants.
Haftar insists that he will abide by any decision taken by the HoR.
While he has been ambiguous about his own political ambition, it is likely that this is confined to a key role for himself in the new army under the national unity government and, more generally, for the LNA in the new armed forces.

Provide a concise overview of the following information. | Cells at Colchester police station were shut last month for improvements to be made. It meant those arrested were instead taken to Chelmsford or Clacton.
But BBC News has now learned the cells at Chelmsford were closed on Tuesday because their buzzers were not working.
One solicitor told the BBC a colleague held a police interview at a client's house rather than wait for a cell.
Essex Police confirmed the Chelmsford closure but said the problems had since been fixed and its cells reopened.
The former custody suite at Braintree Police is permanently closed and the custody suite in Colchester is expected to remain closed for a number of weeks.
Caroline Woodley, a defence solicitor working in the north of the county, told the BBC: "Chelmsford was closed today [Tuesday] due to the cell buzzers not working.
"This means officers having to travel to other stations and some officers have been just deployed as a taxi service ferrying people between the two.
"Voluntary attendees at Colchester police station are finding it impossible to get into custody. We are obviously having to travel further afield which will in turn cost the taxpayer in legal aid.
"Last week my colleague and a police officer gave up trying to get into custody to do an interview and went to the client's house where a contemporaneous note interview was done instead."
She said a complaint had been lodged with Chelmsford police because they were not contacted about two of her firm's clients.
A spokesman for Essex police said the Chelmsford custody suite was shut on Tuesday "to carry out essential maintenance work" adding: "A routine inspection of Colchester police station's custody facilities has highlighted defects which could have health and safety or welfare implications for detainees.
"A programme of works has been commissioned and the custody suite will be closed for a number of weeks. Custody suites in Chelmsford and Clacton will be used to detain prisoners until Colchester's facilities have reopened."

They have paid a world-record fee for Tomkins, eclipsing the £450,000 that Wigan spent on Stuart Fielden in 2006.
A switch to rugby union had been a possibility for the full-back, who is England's all-time leading try scorer.
2008: Scores five tries on Wigan Warriors debut in Challenge Cup tie against Whitehaven.
2009: Named in Super League's Dream Team for the first time. Scores three tries on international debut for England against Wales.
2010: Scores in Grand Final win against St Helens as Wigan claim their first title since 1998. Equals England record for tries in a single Test match, crossing four times against France.
2011: Plays in Wigan's Challenge Cup win over Leeds Rhinos at Wembley. Signs new five-year contract on the same day his older brother Joel swaps codes to join Saracens. Makes first rugby union appearance, playing on the wing for Barbarians against Australia at Twickenham.

2013: Equals club record by scoring in 11 consecutive matches for Wigan. Scores last-minute try in Wigan's Challenge Cup final win against Hull FC at Wembley. Named in Super League's Dream Team for fifth year in succession.
But Tomkins, has agreed a three-year deal with a club that finished 11th of 16 teams in Australia's domestic league.
The 24-year-old's move has been confirmed ahead of the upcoming World Cup, at which Tomkins will be crucial to England's chances of success on home soil, and at the DW Stadium on Friday.
Wigan, who have also announced that full-back Matt Bowen, 31, has joined from North Queensland Cowboys as a direct replacement, will have first refusal to sign Tomkins if he chooses to return to Super League in the future.
"This has been a very difficult decision to make but it is now perfect timing for me to make the switch to the NRL," said Tomkins. "It is something in my career I have always wanted to do and this agreement with the Warriors also allows me to return back to Wigan in the future.
"I head to New Zealand with some great memories of Grand Final and Challenge Cup success and some very special times.
"Going to Auckland is a huge step for me and my rugby league career but one I am really looking forward to. I want to end my time with further success with Wigan as we aim for Grand Final glory, and then with England as we focus on winning the World Cup on home soil."
Wigan head coach Shaun Wane said he was excited for Tomkins, describing the full-back as a "great kid".
"For all his plus points, the main one is that he's competitive," Wane told BBC Radio 5 live. "The Warriors will get someone who wants to win and he'll be very vociferous in the changing room.
"He's one of my leaders. They'll get a competitive player who will challenge the coaching staff because he wants to get better. They have a fantastic player in Sam Tomkins."

Writing in his column for a local newspaper in June 2012, Tomkins had said a move to the NRL later in his career was while he refused to clarify his future in an interview with BBC Sport immediately after in August.
Tomkins, who has scored 144 tries in 150 appearances for the Cherry and Whites, had to run.
England-born players moving to NRL clubs has become an increasingly common occurrence in recent years and the number is set to grow further in 2014, with and as well as Leeds Rhinos teenagers among those heading to Australia.

What is the brief summary of the provided content? | The firm plans to use gaming technology to help find 200 recruits for a business apprenticeship scheme.
It says if this is successful it will be applied to its graduate intake.
Deloitte says it wants to find staff "who may not necessarily stand out through a traditional recruitment process".
The game, Firefly Freedom, will be used to assess the "innovation, creativity and problem-solving" of applicants, who are likely to be aged 17 or 18.
Applicants will play for 20 to 30 minutes, with challenges in the game that are meant to show personality traits or a "candidate's natural preferences".
The game, made by a firm called Arctic Shores, provides "games based personality assessments".
This is the latest attempt by major employers to find new approaches to recruitment in a bid to get a more diverse workforce.
Employers have struggled with intakes, particularly at graduate level, where entry has been dominated by applicants from a narrow range of universities and backgrounds.
Deloitte, which recruits 1,500 graduates and school-leavers each year, has already announced plans to conceal the name of the university and school attended by applicants.
It said it wanted to remove "unconscious bias" about job-hunters, based on their university.
Accountancy firm Ernst and Young has said that it will carry out tests and interviews without considering applicants' exams or degree grades.
As well as wanting to promote social mobility, Deloitte's Emma Codd said the firm needed people "from a variety of backgrounds, bringing a range of perspectives and experience into the firm".
"There is compelling evidence that alternative methods during the recruitment process support this objective, helping to identify exceptional talent," she said.
Rob Fryer, head of student recruitment at Deloitte, said such approaches could find highly innovative people from "less privileged backgrounds" who otherwise would have been missed by employers.
The incident, which involved about 10 people, happened in Mossvale Way, Craigend, at about 11:50 on Saturday.
The victim was taken to Glasgow Royal Infirmary for treatment. His condition is not yet known.
Police are trying to identify those involved and are appealing to local residents to contact them with any information.
Det Juan Carlos Arias De Leon said those involved had been attending a party at a flat in the street.

"However, a young man has been seriously injured and it's imperative we find whoever is responsible.

Give a concise summary of the passage below. | Speaking alongside David Cameron at the White House, Mr Obama said it was up to the British people to decide the matter but EU membership was an "expression" of the UK's global influence.
The PM said his plan to renegotiate the UK's EU membership with a referendum by the end of 2017 had "strong support".
Mr Cameron's strategy has faced criticism from some in his party.
Ahead of his White House talks Mr Cameron rounded on senior Conservatives wanting to leave the European Union, accusing them of "throwing in the towel" before negotiations had even started.
He called the position held by former cabinet ministers Lord Lawson and Michael Portillo "very, very strange".
Seventy MPs have now backed calls for a vote on an EU referendum on Wednesday.
The US president was asked about the growing number of senior Conservatives openly discussing the prospect of the UK leaving the EU and what this would mean for UK-US relations.
By James LandaleDeputy political editor
Q&A: Tory row over an EU referendum
He told reporters that Mr Cameron's "basic point that you probably want to see if you can fix what is broken in a very important relationship before you break it off - that makes some sense to me".
The US had a "special relationship" with the UK and an "active, robust, outward-looking" Britain that was "engaged with the world" helped underpin this partnership, he suggested.
"The UK's participation in the EU is an expression of its influence and its role in the world as well as obviously a very important economic partnership," he added.
Mr Obama said he awaited the outcome of "tough negotiations" about the EU's future with interest, noting that the PM had been "very active" in pushing for structural reforms.
He also said he strongly supported a free trade deal between the EU and the US - discussed by the two leaders.
Mr Cameron said his European policy was driven by the national interest and he strongly believed that changing the UK's status within the EU was "achievable".
He said holding a referendum now, as some of his MPs are demanding, would amount to a "false choice" between the status quo and withdrawal. "That is not a choice the British people want or deserve," he added.
The PM's US trip comes as MPs have signed an amendment to the motion welcoming the Queen's Speech, in which they express "regret" about the absence of legislation paving the way for a referendum on the UK's membership of the EU.
There has been a growing number of Conservatives calling for a firming up of the PM's pledge to renegotiate the UK's relations with the EU and to put membership to the public in a referendum by the end of 2017 if the Tories win the next election.
Others have gone further, with former cabinet minister Lord Lawson saying any gains from the renegotiations would be "inconsequential", while ex-defence secretary Michael Portillo has also advocated leaving the EU.
Mr Cameron said: "The point I would make to these people is that you shouldn't give up before a negotiation has started.
"It seems to be an extraordinary way to go about things... the idea of throwing in the towel before the negotiations even started, I think, is a very very strange opinion."
On Sunday Education Secretary Michael Gove and Defence Secretary Phillip Hammond said they would vote to leave the EU if there were a referendum now, a position echoed by ex-Scottish secretary Lord Forsyth on the BBC's Daily Politics on Monday.
Asked about their comments, Mr Cameron said: "Well there isn't going to be a referendum tomorrow so it's a hypothetical question."
The prime minister has said he would campaign to stay within the EU if he was able to secure a new relationship.
A group of Conservative backbenchers, led by John Baron, has been campaigning for him to legislate in the current Parliament for a referendum.
The Commons amendment is highly unlikely to be passed, because Labour, the Lib Dems and many Conservatives will vote against it or abstain.
But Tory MP Gavin Barwell, one of five Conservative ministerial aides so far to say they will vote for the amendment, said he "completely trusted the PM" but the electorate did not trust politicians in general.
"What we need to do is to convince a sceptical electorate that we actually mean it," he told BBC Radio 4's Today programme.
"A very effective way of doing that would be to bring forward legislation, so we can go back to our constituents and say, look if you vote Conservative at the next election here is a guarantee that we will get a referendum."
But pro-European Conservative MPs have hit back, with Robert Buckland urging his colleagues to refrain from "irrelevant and arcane arguments" and to leave the prime minister to "get on with the job" of defending UK interests.
And Nicholas Soames said a future decision on the UK's relationship with the EU should be decided by an "orderly process" and not by "prejudice or pub rhetoric".
Labour opposes the decision to announce a referendum four years early, but is not ruling out the possibility of one in the future.
Shadow foreign secretary Douglas Alexander said the economy, not Europe, was the "biggest problem" facing the country but a group of Labour MPs and peers, including the former Europe minister Keith Vaz, are calling for their party to support a referendum.
Lib Dem leader and Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg has criticised his larger Conservative coalition partners for their "endless navel-gazing over Europe", which he said was in danger of distracting the government from its priorities.
The leader of the UK Independence Party, Nigel Farage, told the BBC's Daily Politics that he was "open minded" about backing at the next election some Conservative or Labour MPs who wanted UK withdrawal from the EU.
He said there had already been some talks with individual local associations, now it was lawful for candidates to have two parties' logos on their ballot papers. | US President Barack Obama has said the UK should try to "fix" its relationship with the EU before "breaking it off". |

Can you summarize the following paragraph? | Originally an innovation for television coverage of cricket, Hawk-Eye has become a trusted tool for officials in cricket, tennis and now football.
When the company was launched in 2001, it had two full-time employees based in Winchester.
Fast-forward to 2013 and it is now owned by Sony, has 65 full-time staff and the technology is installed in 230 stadiums worldwide.
Dr Paul Hawkins came up with the idea in 1999 and after 18 months of development, the technology made its debut during Channel 4's coverage of the 2001 Ashes series.
A Royal Society Television Award for technical innovation followed, and the company Hawk-Eye Innovations Ltd was established - with a focus on developing the technology for use in tennis.
A year later, Hawk-Eye was used in this way for the first time during the BBC's Davis Cup coverage. It received two more TV awards for innovation in 2003 and 2004, including an Emmy.
After some controversial line-calls in major tennis matches, some questioned whether the technology could be used for more than just the benefit of a TV audience.
The International Tennis Federation eventually approved the use of Hawk-Eye as an aid to be used by umpires, should any judgements be disputed or too close to call.
Hawk-Eye was first used in a tennis tournament in 2005, making its official Wimbledon debut in 2007.
Despite being praised by many, not everyone has been in favour of the technology.
Most notably, 17-time Grand Slam winner Roger Federer has said in the past that Hawk-Eye is not accurate enough and has even called for it to be scrapped.
But such criticism has not hindered the technology's global success, and in 2011 the company was bought by Sony for an undisclosed sum.
The firm's staff and developers are now based at Sony's European headquarters in Basingstoke, Hampshire, where the units are put together in a warehouse on site.
A number of staff are also based abroad, following tennis tours and working at international stadiums.
The company had a setback in early 2013, when it missed out on the contract to supply goal-line technology for the 2014 World Cup to its German rival, GoalControl.
But the Premier League deal confirms Hawk-Eye as a leading player in football's greater use of technology to assist officials.
The company's accounts are private, but the agreement with the Premier League is reported to be worth millions of pounds.
The Scotland cap was stopped in his tracks by the shoulder of opposite wing Fergus McFadden as Edinburgh threatened a comeback in the closing minutes.
"Certainly, from what I saw, it was definitely high," said Solomons.
"I have not had a chance to study it properly. I'd have to look closely at the film to make any further comment."
Italian referee Marius Mitrea did consult the TMO before awarding a penalty, which was converted by Sam Hidalgo-Clyne to pull Edinburgh to within seven points of their hosts.
But McFadden escaped even a yellow card despite the away support calling for a red.
"The penalty was clearly justified," Solomons told BBC Scotland. "There was no question about that."
Despite their hosts still having a full complement of players, Edinburgh pushed deep into the Leinster half for a score that would level the match in the dying seconds.
However, Leinster held on to move five points clear of Irish rivals Connacht at the top of the Pro12 table.
Edinburgh are sixth, equal on points with Munster and two behind Ulster, but the two Irish sides have a game in hand.
Despite that, Solomons was pleased with his side's display considering he had to play a number of players out of position after the break because of first-half injuries.
"The side showed tremendous courage and character," he said. "We had a 6-3 split and we lost both our centres at half time.
"The boys gave it a go right from their own try-line to get the bonus point for a draw and a bonus point for a fourth try.
"Our attack is continuing to evolve and it was really positive for us from an attacking perspective, but Leinster did get four tries.
"But they are top of the log and to come away with a bonus point speaks volumes for the team." | Hawk-Eye's deal to provide Premier League goal-line technology marks another step in the company's rapid rise from a simple concept dreamed up by a sports fan with a PhD in artificial intelligence to an essential piece of kit used in major sporting events across the globe.

Can you summarize the given article? | Schumacher spent six months in an induced coma after the December 2013 accident and is continuing his rehabilitation at home.
Todt was team boss at Ferrari, where Schumacher won five successive titles between 2000 and 2004.
"Michael's a close friend," said Todt.
"His family is very close to me. We must keep him fighting with the family," he added.
Schumacher won his first championship in 1994 with Benetton before retaining his title the following year.
The German then moved to Ferrari where he went on to dominate the sport before calling time on his career in 2006.
He returned to the grid with Mercedes in 2010 but endured a largely disappointing three-season spell with a best finish of third at the 2012 European Grand Prix in Valencia.
Todt said Lewis Hamilton's third world title reminded him of Schumacher's record-breaking achievements.
"It was interesting last week after Lewis was world champion for the third time, you saw the figures," he added.
"I was very proud of what Michael did and sometimes you tend to forget what he did.
"I see Michael very often and Michael is still fighting."
The 14-time Grand Slam champion and top seed won a first-set tiebreak and saved two set points in the second, but was beaten 6-7 (6) 7-6 (3) 6-4.
"I lost an opportunity," Nadal said. "I have to accept it and keep working to try to change the dynamic."
World number 45 Cuevas will meet the unseeded Guido Pella in the final.
The Argentine won 6-1 6-4 against Austrian fifth seed Dominic Thiem, who beat world number five Nadal in the last four of the Argentina Open last week.
The consecutive semi-final defeats for Nadal continue a disappointing season, which began with a first-round loss to Fernando Verdasco in the Australian Open.
"I didn't win a title, so it wasn't a positive two tournaments," the 29-year-old Spaniard said. "I had my chances in both but I just have to look forward."
Finola Cash, 32, was out buying crack cocaine when her son Ricky's bath seat fell into water in their hotel bedsit in Edgware, north London, in August.
Cash had been visited by social workers on multiple occasions, including on the day Ricky died, the Old Bailey heard.
The judge said Cash was "grossly negligent".
The baby, who was subject to a child protection plan by Harrow Social Services, died in September 2014 - a month after he was found - in a children's hospice after suffering brain damage.
Judge Charles Wide said: "You were grossly negligent. This was not the result of momentary inattention, this was the culmination of the continual failure to care for him.
He added: "You were more concerned with receiving your consignment of drugs than looking after your child."
Doctors found the 11-month-old had crack cocaine in his bloodstream, which was either the result of passive smoking or contamination from a surface or a finger.
He was also suffering a severe nappy rash caused by neglecting to change soiled nappies.
Cash pleaded guilty to manslaughter and was sentenced to six years, of which Judge Wide said she is expected to serve half on licence.
Cash, who is from the travelling community, was known to social services because of her history of drug abuse and domestic violence.
She had been moved into the hotel so social services could supervise the family, the prosecution said.
On the morning of Ricky's death on 23 August, a social worker made an unannounced visit to Cash and noted that she had no concerns, the court heard.
Tests on her blood and hair revealed she had taken crack cocaine in the 12 hours before Ricky had drowned and had been a user of heroin and methadone for the previous nine months.
Sarah Plaschkes QC, prosecuting, said Harrow Social Services became "increasingly concerned" about Cash who had already been evicted from two other hotels for disruptive behaviour before she arrived at the Madonna Halley Hotel, in Whitchurch Lane, in August 2014.
Social workers suspected Cash may have been taking drugs after reports from from neighbours, but Cash failed to turn up for drug testing.

Please provide a short summary of this passage. | Kumble, 45, has no international or first-class coaching experience but is India's leading Test wicket taker with 619 wickets in 132 games.
India have been without a head coach since Duncan Fletcher left the role after the 2015 World Cup.
Former team director Ravi Shastri has overseen India's recent World Twenty20 and Asia Cup campaigns.
Kumble previously served as the cricket committee chairman of the International Cricket Council (ICC) from 2012 to 2016 after retiring from cricket.
A panel comprising former players Sachin Tendulkar, VVS Laxman and Sourav Ganguly made the decision to appoint Kumble after an 18-month search.
India won the 2013 Champions Trophy under Fletcher but suffered a 3-1 defeat in their last Test series in England in 2014 and failed to defend their World Cup title.
Under Shastri's guidance they reached the semi-finals of the World Twenty20 in March, with captain Virat Kohli becoming the ICC number-one ranked T20 batsman.
Organisers said the aircraft was "unaffiliated" with the US Open or television coverage of the event.
Eye witnesses posted social media footage showing the advertising blimp falling to the ground and the pilot using a parachute to escape.
The pilot was injured but the airship owners said he is "expected to be OK".

American aerial advertising firm Air Sign added there are "no details on the cause of the crash".
A US Open statement said: "According to local authorities, a commercial blimp not affiliated with the USGA or the US Open Championship broadcast crashed in an open field approximately a half mile from the Erin Hills golf course at approximately 11:15 (17:15 BST).
"First responders were quick to arrive at the scene and the pilot is currently being treated for unknown injuries.
"No other people were involved in the incident and local law enforcement is currently investigating. Our thoughts and prayers are with the pilot at this time." | India have appointed former captain and leg spinner Anil Kumble as their new head coach on a one-year deal.
