Summarize the information in the following section. | SWW said the discount would automatically appear in people's bills every April until at least 2020.
The government-funded discount is to cover the extra cost of cleaning up South West England's bathing waters.
Bills for SWW customers - in Devon and Cornwall, plus parts of Dorset and Somerset - are about £150 higher than the national average, at about £540.
Last March, MPs agreed to legislation meaning a £400m government subsidy for SWW.
Since privatisation in 1989, SWW bills have risen steadily to help pay for Operation Clean Sweep - a £2bn investment programme to improve beach water quality and revamp the region's sewage system.
Birmingham-born Macklin, a former British and double European champion, has quit two days before his 34th birthday after winning 35 of 41 fights.
"It's been a real rollercoaster - I've had a great career but I know now is the right time to bow out," Macklin said in a statement.
"Fifteen years is a long time in boxing and I'm not the fighter I once was."
Macklin beat Brian Rose, an ex-British super welterweight champion, on points in his last bout in April, and said it was during that fight that he realised it was time to call it a day.
"Around the half-way point, I knew it was time to retire," Macklin continued. "My face was marking up, I was getting frustrated at not being able to land my shots and I knew that physically, after a long career, my body was telling me that enough was enough."

Macklin, an ABA champion before turning professional, fought three times for the world title, losing to Germany's Felix Sturm in June 2011, Argentine great Sergio Martinez in March 2012 and current undefeated king Gennady Golovkin nearly three years ago.
"I wanted to know how good I was and test myself against the very best the sport had to offer and I can proudly say I did that," added Macklin, who won 22 of his fights by knockout.
"I fought Sturm, Sergio Martinez and the best of them all Gennady Golovkin. Most importantly, I fought them all in their prime.
"I never managed to get my hands on that elusive world title but I should have done that night in Cologne in 2011. I believe I was very unlucky to be on the wrong side of a bad decision to Felix Sturm."
Macklin, who worked with high-profile trainers including Billy Graham, Joe Gallagher, former world champion Richie Woodhall and legendary American Freddie Roach, now hopes to start a new career in the media. | Customers of South West Water (SWW) are to be given a yearly £50 discount from April, the company says.

Can you write a brief summary of this passage? | It has announced revisions to 10 services from 25 June, with some being rerouted, affecting Coedpoeth, Penycae, Rhostyllen, Llay and other areas.
Local MP Susan Elan Jones and AM Ken Skates have written to Arriva and are calling on Wrexham council to step in.
Arriva has been asked to comment.
Mr Skates said: "In Penycae, these changes will see key areas such as the Afoneitha estate hugely affected, and people fear they will be completely cut off.
"Arriva has stated that long-running parking issues hindering access to the estate have contributed to its decision, so I would implore Wrexham council to act as a matter of urgency."
Wrexham councillor David A Bithell, lead member for environment and transport, said: "These are commercial decisions taken by Arriva and the council unfortunately has no power to prevent them going ahead." | Politicians are calling for bus company Arriva to rethink planned service changes in Wrexham, claiming they act as a "lifeline" for some communities. |
What is the summary of the document provided? | It said Vodafone India, the country's second biggest mobile operator, was in negotiations with Idea Cellular, India's third largest network.
There was "no certainty" a deal would be agreed, Vodafone added.
Shares in the UK telecoms giant rose about 3% on Monday, making it the biggest riser on the FTSE 100 index.
India's leading mobile networks are embroiled in what analysts have described as "a vicious price war", started by the arrival of a low-cost rival offering free voice and data to customers.
Vodafone India and Idea Cellular, together with current market leader Bharti Airtel, have been forced to cut prices by Reliance Jio, a new operator owned by the country's richest man, Mukesh Ambani.
Vodafone was forced to write down the value of its Indian business by 5bn euros (£4.3bn) in November amid the intense competition.
The firm has looked to spin off Vodafone India, but said at the time it would wait for the market to stabilise.
The merger talks with Idea suggest "Vodafone is taking the Indian tiger by the scruff", said Neil Wilson, an analyst at London brokers ETX Capital.
"India has become a trouble-spot for Vodafone, with losses there severely hurting the rest of the group," Mr Wilson said.
"Indeed a vicious price war in India means the group could post its first operating loss in 10 years in 2017. The Idea tie-up looks like a way to limit the casualties on either side.
"Something had to be done and this merger might be the way to strengthen Vodafone's hand in the Indian price war."
In its statement on Monday, Vodafone said a merger with Idea would enable it to take the India unit off its books and receive a dividend from the new business.
Shares in Idea Cellular, owned by the Aditya Birla Group, have surged 26% on confirmation of the merger talks.
More than ten telecom operators are battling it out to attract the custom of India's one billion mobile phone users.
That has forced firms to keep tariffs low - significantly impacting their profitability.
And the entry of Reliance Jio last year - has made matters even worse.
You can't avoid its high profile advertising campaigns here - pushing introductory offers of free voice calls and internet to cost conscious consumers.
The deep pockets of Mukesh Ambani mean many expect rock bottom prices even in the long run, forcing rivals to slash their charges further if they want to stay in the game.
So even if this Vodafone-Ideal merger goes ahead, I doubt it'll be the last bit of consolidation we see. | Vodafone has said its Indian business is holding talks about a major merger which would create the country's largest telecoms firm. |
Write a concise summary of the provided excerpt. | Amy Smith, 17, six-month-old daughter Ruby-Grace Gaunt and friend Edward Green, also 17, died in the blaze at Langley Mill in Derbyshire last June.
Peter Eyre and his sons Simon, 24, and Anthony Eyre, 22, are alleged to have deliberately started the fire in an act of revenge.
All three deny three counts of murder.
Jurors previously heard Ruby-Grace's father, 18-year-old Shaun Gaunt, and another teenager who survived the fire were also inside the flat, but had escaped with the help of neighbours.
Nottingham Crown Court heard that prior to the fire, Mr Gaunt and a group of friends visited another of Peter Eyre's sons - Aaron Henshaw - after a friend told him he had stolen his Piaggio Zip moped, which went missing "in March or April".
Giving evidence, Mr Gaunt told the court he heard Peter Eyre on the phone to Mr Gaunt's friend during the row outside the defendants' home in Sandiacre, Derbyshire, when he said: "You need to sort this... out before I body bag the lot of you."
It is alleged Peter Eyre, 44, made the comments.
"I believe it was aimed at everyone," Mr Gaunt said.
A jury was told Mr Gaunt drank between 15 and 17 bottles of the tequila-flavoured beer Desperados, with Mr Gaunt saying he had been drinking "most of the day" before the fire.
Mr Gaunt and his friends continued to "drive around" in Mr Green's Peugeot 106 before going back to the defendants' house just before 01:30 GMT, because a friend was "adamant" Mr Gaunt's moped was there.
It is claimed by Mr Gaunt that after his friend demanded to know where the moped was, Peter Eyre came outside with a large lump hammer and said: "I'll show you".
Mr Gaunt said he responded by smashing a bottle of Desperados he was carrying "for protection".
Mr Gaunt then told the court as the group were driving off, he saw someone get into a black Skoda parked outside the Sandiacre house and begin to follow them.
The teenager said the car was driving just "a few feet" behind them, with the Peugeot itself travelling at "about 80mph" at the same time.
Shaun Smith QC, defending Peter Eyre, cross examined Mr Gaunt, and said any comment about body bags had not been made until Mr Gaunt and his friends had left the house.
The defence also disputed there was a car chase following the confrontation.
The trial continues.
Constance Davies, 88, was watching television at home in Maesteg, Bridgend county, when Gavin Tainton burst in demanding money on 4 August last year.
Debt-ridden Tainton, 32, denied robbery and erupted in rage at a Cardiff Crown Court jury which convicted him before kicking a door on his way to the cells.
He will be sentenced on Friday.
Tainton used thick electrical cable to tie up Mrs Davies, pulled out her phone line and told her to stay quiet.
The shaken pensioner, who sustained a broken finger as well as numerous cuts and bruises, managed to wriggle free but remained silent until the following day when she summoned enough strength to go to see her doctor.
She begged a nurse that she "didn't want anyone to know" about her terrifying ordeal.
Tainton's fingerprints were found on the inside back-door handle of Mrs Davies' home.
But claimed he had been invited into Mrs Davies' home two weeks before the break-in after agreeing to clean her windows.
Tainton, who has previous convictions for burglary, insisted he had not carried out what he called a "junkie's crime". | A father accused of murder after a baby and two teenagers died in a fire had threatened to "body bag" people during a row over a moped, a court has heard.

Provide a brief summary for the information below. | Hugh Mitchell's wife handed in his "fictionalised" story to police before he was due to stand trial for sex crimes in West Lothian.
Former soldier Mitchell, 65, pleaded guilty to raping a nine-year-old girl.
He also admitted a further seven charges of indecency involving a total of five underage girls.
A judge told him at the High Court in Edinburgh: "You were repeatedly committing serious sexual crimes against young children over many years."
John Beckett QC said: "You deployed inducement, manipulation and threats to inflict your grossly depraved conduct on innocent children."
The judge said statements provided by the victims made "harrowing reading" and added: "In different ways you have traumatised all of your victims."
He jailed Mitchell, formerly from Kirknewton, for a total of 10 years and 10 months and ordered he be under supervision for a further three years.
First offender Mitchell was also placed on the sex offenders' register for life.
The judge said that he took account of Mitchell's long Army service, his age, health problems and lack of previous offending.
Mitchell abused children at Almondell Country Park, East Calder, and at Bubbles Leisure Pool in Livingston, all in the West Lothian area.
Mitchell, a former classroom assistant at a West Lothian school, began preying on children in 1988 and continued up to 2004.
Defence solicitor advocate Mike Bell said: "I am instructed simply to say it is accepted this indictment involves a quite dreadful catalogue of abuse for which there can be no mitigation."
The court heard that Mitchell's wife had handed in an envelope containing his self-penned book in September this year. She had come across it about 10 years ago.
Det Ch Insp John Peaston said: "Mitchell is a dangerous predator and it is through the courage of his victims that he has been brought to account. We hope this sentence will bring closure to them and allow them to move forward with their lives.
"The investigation of child abuse, whenever or wherever it has taken place, continues to be a top priority for Police Scotland.
"We would urge any victim of a sexual crime to contact police. All reports are thoroughly investigated by dedicated officers, who provide specialist support to victims and target offenders to bring them to justice." | A child rapist who wrote an account of sexual abuse mirroring his exploitation of a victim has been jailed for more than 10 years. |
Can you summarize the given article? | His novel An Eagle in the Snow, illustrated by Michael Foreman, is inspired by the true story of one man who might have stopped World War II.
The annual book prize is chosen and voted for entirely by children.
The former children's laureate last won the prize in 2011 for Shadow, the story of boy who is befriended by an army sniffer dog in Afghanistan.
Kensuke's Kingdom and Private Peaceful also won the prize in 2000 and 2004 respectively.
An Eagle in the Snow begins in 1940, when a boy called Barney and his mother find themselves on a train forced to shelter in a tunnel during an air raid.
In the darkness, a stranger on the train tells them a story of Bobby Byron, a hero of WWI who had the chance to kill Adolf Hitler.
"Michael Morpurgo has demonstrated once again that he is a truly magical storyteller," said Jane Etheridge, chair of the Federation of Children's Book Groups, the charity which runs the award.
Morpurgo and Foreman's novel was picked as the overall winner from the winners of three age categories.
One, by Sarah Crossan, won the older readers category and Oi Dog!, written by Kes and Claire Gray and illustrated by Jim Field, won for younger children.
The Children's Book Award, formerly known as the Red House Children's Book Award, was established in 1980.
Previous winners include JK Rowling, Patrick Ness, Malorie Blackman and Anthony Horowitz.

Please summarize the following text. | Set up by the US Darpa research agency the competition hopes to spur interest in autonomous security systems.
Mayhem's creators will get $2m (£1.52m) to continue their work and make their creation more effective.
Results will be confirmed on Friday at 10:00 local time (17:00 GMT).
Dubbed the Cyber Grand Challenge, the event was held at the Def Con hacker conference.
"I'm blown away by what just happened," said Mike Walker, the Darpa scientist who set up and oversaw the event. "We've had an all-computer hacking tournament."
Mr Walker said the event was intended to uncover techniques that can find and fix bugs in code far faster than humans can. It can take months or years for humans to notice some bugs, leaving them to be exploited by cyber thieves while patches are sought, he added.
The world's growing dependence on computer systems demanded the creation of some kind of smart, autonomous security system, he said.
Preliminary events held over the last three years whittled the entrants down to the seven that took part in the Vegas event. The teams in the final were drawn from universities, software engineering firms and security start-ups.
Alex Rebert, head of Team Forallsecure that created Mayhem said the cash prize would be put towards further development of the program and keeping the small firm behind it going as it grows.
The second prize of $1m went to the team behind a program called Xandra which was drawn from security experts from the University of Virginia and European firm GrammaTech. The third prize of $750,000 went to the Mech Phish team from the University of California.
Thousands of Def Con attendees gathered in a ballroom in the Paris casino to watch the competition unfold. The Cyber Grand Challenge is modelled on the Capture The Flag hacker tournaments run at many conventions where security experts gather.
These CTF competitions see small teams analyse code to find bugs they then patch to protect their own virtual territory while exploiting the same bugs to attack others taking part.
The winning team is the one that does the best job of finding and fixing bugs while using them to hamper the efforts of others.
In total, the Cyber Challenge ran for eight hours over 95 separate rounds with humans allowed to watch the closing hours of the digital battle. Mayhem took an early lead in the tournament and, despite a late crash which meant it logged some no-scoring rounds, held on until the end.
Some of the rounds were based on well-known software bugs such as Heartbleed, SQL Slammer and Crackaddr, that caused widespread disruption when they first appeared. These were added to see if the smart software could do a better job than humans did at finding fixes for these vulnerabilities when they first appeared.
The intense combat among the programs was displayed on giant screens set above a stage on which sat seven water-cooled supercomputers running the software.
The winning team also gets the chance to enter its system into the real Def Con CTF competition to see how it performs against the best human players of the offensive coding game.
Other grand challenges set up by Darpa accelerated research into autonomous vehicles and prompted pioneering work on robots that can help in disaster zones. | A program named Mayhem has provisionally won a competition in Las Vegas to find software that does the best job of automatically defending against cyber attacks. |
Write a concise summary of the provided excerpt. | The LGA said there were 2,056 cases of theft recorded in 2015 compared with 1,756 in 2014 and 656 in 2013.
Prosecutions for using stolen or lost badges to park for free dishonestly nearly trebled in the last five years.
Blue badges entitle drivers to free parking in pay and display bays and allow them to park in disabled zones.
At least 2.4 million disabled people hold the badges in England, which are issued by local authorities.
The LGA, which represents more than 370 councils in England and Wales, said the number of people prosecuted for abusing the use of blue badges had increased from 330 in 2010 to 985 in 2015.
Martin Tett, LGA Transport spokesman, said: "The theft of blue badges is clearly a crime on the rise and it is alarming that incidents have trebled in just three years.
"Illegally using a blue badge is not a victimless crime.
"For disabled people, blue badges are a vital lifeline that helps them get out and about to visit shops or family and friends.
"Callous thieves and unscrupulous fraudsters using them illegally are robbing disabled people of this independence."
Blue badges also allow disabled people to park for up to three hours on yellow lines, while in London they exempt holders from having to pay the congestion charge.
They are only allowed to be used when the holder of the badge is driving the vehicle or is a passenger.
Mr Tett added: "To help councils win the fight against blue badge fraud, residents must keep tipping us off about people they suspect are illegally using a badge, bearing in mind people's need for a badge might not always be obvious." | The number of blue badges for disabled drivers stolen in England has more than trebled in three years, according to the Local Government Association. |
Summarize the following content briefly. | The north London club made a loss of £3.98m last season, an improvement on a £5.17m deficit the year before.
Chairman Nigel Wray said having a smaller squad and "finishing 11th" was one obvious way to cut the debt.
"But that would send out a terrible message to players that we weren't ambitious and would hardly attract sponsors," he added.
"We have a very well-known brand which is of considerable value and must be nurtured."
The club's accounts showed total salaries rising to £9.81m, but a 13% increase in turnover led to a reduced annual loss.
The losses will be funded by parent company Premier Team Holdings Limited, although their written intention to do so is not legally binding.
"The financial results are not good but they are better. We are finally going in the right direction," said Wray, in a statement with the accounts, which have been submitted to Companies House.

Can you summarize this content? | The Marine Conservation Society (MCS) said the latest International Council for the Exploration of the Sea data showed cod stocks were only slightly above what are considered sustainable.
MCS fisheries officer Bernadette Clarke said: "Our advice remains to seek alternatives to North Sea cod."
However, the claim has angered Scottish fishing industry leaders.
The MCS's spokeswoman explained: "The efforts of fishers and managers have placed cod in the North Sea on the road to recovery.
"Programmes such as the Conservation Credits Scheme - which rewards fishermen for adopting conservation measures with additional days at sea - together with more effective long-term management plans will hopefully see the fishery continue to recover in the coming years."
But she added: "There are more sustainable cod fisheries that we currently rate as Fish to Eat."
Mike Park, from the Scottish White Fish Producers Association, told BBC Scotland it was time the efforts of fishermen were appreciated and recognised.
Mr Park said: "The advice from the Marine Conservation Society is extremely disappointing."
And Scotland's Fishing Secretary Richard Lochhead said: "All Scottish Cod is caught within internationally agreed limits with the aim of transitioning towards full Maximum Sustainable Yield (MSY) in the very near future, therefore the stock recovery is not being harmed and will not be harmed in any way if people eat Scottish caught North Sea cod."
The decision by the Monetary Policy Committee comes more than six years after the record low was introduced.
The decision, normally announced each month on a Thursday, was delayed because of the election.
The half-dozen years of ultra-low interest rates have cut returns on savings, but mortgage borrowers have benefited from lower repayments.
The Bank left the scale of its quantitative easing (QE) stimulus programme unchanged at £375bn.
It will release the minutes of the May meeting in just under two weeks' time.
Attention will now turn to the Bank's quarterly inflation report on Wednesday. The report will show how the Bank expects the rate of inflation to move over the next few years, and will be studied for clues as to when interest rates might rise.
The Bank of England is charged by the government with keeping inflation close to a target rate of 2%, although the rate stood at 0% in both February and March.
The Bank has already warned that consumer price inflation could turn negative at some point in the coming months, because of falls in the price of oil since last year and the continuing supermarket price war.
"The decision to keep Bank Rate on hold was eminently predictable," said Martin Beck, senior economic advisor to the EY Item Club.
"Inflation remains resolutely absent, the long-awaited revival in pay growth continues to be elusive and signs of weakness in the global economy further caution against tighter monetary policy.
"We continue to expect rates to remain on hold until at least the first quarter of next year."

Give a brief summary of the following article. | Bond stars Daniel Craig and Dame Judi Dench are among the 29 signatories of an open letter calling for "a strong BBC at the centre of British life".
"A diminished BBC would simply mean a diminished Britain," the letter reads.
It comes ahead of a government green paper that is expected to call for a narrower range of BBC programming.
JK Rowling, Stephen Fry and screenwriter Richard Curtis have also put their name to the letter, which expresses a "concern that nothing should be done to diminish the BBC or turn it into a narrowly focused market-failure broadcaster".
"The BBC is a very precious institution," the letter continues. "Like all organisations, it has its faults but it is overwhelmingly a creative force for good.
"Britain's creative economy is growing and enjoying unprecedented success. The BBC is at the heart of this as the global showcase for our creative industries.
"The BBC is trusted and loved at home by British audiences and is the envy of the world abroad."
Other signatories include Clare Balding, Chris Evans, Gary Lineker and Graham Norton, believed to be among the BBC's most highly-paid broadcasters.
Details of celebrity salaries were contained within the BBC annual report launched on Tuesday, which revealed that the money spent on the corporation's star presenters rose from £194.2m in 2013/14 to £208.4m in 2014/15.
Other signatories include Sir David Attenborough, Melvyn Bragg, DJ Nick Grimshaw, the newly knighted Lenny Henry and Strictly Come Dancing host Claudia Winkleman.
The full text of the letter, delivered to Downing Street on Tuesday, can be read on the Daily Telegraph's website.
Culture secretary John Whittingdale is expected to set out a range of proposed reforms in his green paper on Thursday, among them the scrapping of popular shows like The Voice and the replacement of the licence fee with a household tax.
He has appointed eight people to work on the renewal of the BBC's royal charter - which sets out the corporation's remit - including Dawn Airey, former boss of Channel 5; journalism professor Stewart Purvis, a former editor-in-chief of ITN; and Dame Colette Bowe, former chairwoman of Ofcom.
The panel was criticised by conservative peer Lord Fowler, who warned in the House of Lords on Tuesday that the BBC was "under unprecedented attack".
"I must warn those who support the BBC that we have something of a fight on our hands," he said.
"The cards are marked and somewhat stacked against us. The advisory group advising the Secretary of State clanks with special interests and past opinions."
Speaking at the same debate, Lord Patten, a former chairman of the BBC Trust, called the government's advisory panel "a team of assistant gravediggers" who would help the culture secretary "bury the BBC that we love".
Baroness Neville-Rolfe, government spokesperson for the Department of Culture, Media and Sport, responded by saying "no-one is seriously proposing the BBC's abolition".
However, she warned, "one particular area of contention" was the "extent to which the BBC manages to meet its impartiality obligations, and how best this should be achieved and regulated.
"As we near the end of the current charter, we are also presented with the opportunity, through the charter review, to consider in full the BBC's activities, its appropriate scale and scope, and how it should deliver."
Tony Hall, the BBC's director general, made his own case for the corporation on Tuesday, saying "a BBC that doesn't inform, educate and entertain is not the BBC the public know and love".
Lord Hall cited such dramas as Wolf Hall, The Missing and Poldark as examples of BBC successes over the last 12 months and said it would be "hard to support" proposals that stopped it making popular entertainment programmes.
Similar sentiments have been expressed by shadow culture secretary Chris Bryant, who said the "golden thread" running through the BBC was that "it provides something for everyone." | More than two dozen figures from the world of arts and entertainment have called on the Prime Minister to protect the BBC from cuts to its service. |
Write a short summary of the following excerpt. | The calls played a recorded message that urged people to back his campaign to be Labour's candidate.
Information Commissioner Christopher Graham said the same rules apply to canvassing for votes as apply "to offering a discount on double glazing".
People getting Mr Lammy's calls had not given permission to receive such calls.
This meant, according to the Information Commissioner's Office investigation, Mr Lammy had broken the rules set out in the Privacy and Electronic Communication Regulations.
Mr Graham said: "If you want to call someone in this way, you must follow these rules. Mr Lammy did not, and that is why he has been fined.
"It's not good enough to assume the people you're contacting probably won't mind. The law requires you to have permission before making calls with recorded messages. And if the law isn't followed, the regulator will act."
The calls were made in August 2015 using contact details of party members provided by the Labour Party. Mr Lammy did not make the additional checks necessary to ensure he was able to contact the people with recorded messages, the watchdog said.
Mr Graham said: "Mr Lammy's team should have known there were special controls in place around calls with recorded massages. Not only have we published detailed guidance on political campaigning on our website, but we have contacted political parties directly to remind them of the rules."
Mr Lammy came fourth in the contest last year to become Labour's candidate in the forthcoming London mayoral elections with 9.4% of first preferences.

Scottish Labour MSP Ms Grant said: "It is a real safety issue and just been good fortune no-one has been killed on this road because there have been huge landslides."
She said the bypass was used to take schoolchildren to Plockton High School.
The Scottish government said the work being done by Highland Council to build a safer route to replace the Stromeferry bypass was recognised.
A spokesperson said: "Transport Scotland is in continued discussions with Highland Council to help them identify a solution, and are providing technical advice as part of the appraisal of possible options.
"Any decision on providing financial support for the preferred option will be determined by the availability of resources within future spending reviews."
The A890 helps to connect Lochcarron to Plockton, and its high school, and eventually with Kyle, on the opposite side of Loch Carron.
The road runs across the top of the sea loch to link up with the A896, the main road to Lochcarron.
When the bypass is closed, drivers face having to take a 140-mile (225km) diversion, instead of the usual 18 miles (29km) from Lochcarron to Plockton. | MSP Rhoda Grant has called on the Scottish government to help fund the cost of a permanent solution to the trouble-hit A890 Stromeferry bypass. |

One man managed the Gunners to 10 wins in 10 final appearances between 1993 and 2009, and for the majority of those successes he was also working as Arsenal's men's first-team kit manager.
Meet Vic Akers - the most successful manager in the history of English women's football.
As well as success on the pitch, Akers was passionate in trying to ensure the Women's FA Cup final would one day grace England's national stadium.
"It's paramount for the women's game, "Akers told BBC Sport. "We always said, if it was at Wembley, we could have 30-40,000 there. We were fighting for 15 years plus.
"Could they have held it on the same day as the (men's FA Trophy) or the Vase? Now it's there, it's just fantastic."
Saturday's all-London final under the Wembley arch, in front of a record crowd in excess of 30,000, will be in stark contrast to Arsenal's first Women's FA Cup triumph at Oxford's Manor Ground, watched by 3,547.
The venue, which was demolished in 2001, still holds special memories for Akers as his side beat the then-holders Doncaster Rovers Belles 3-0.
"The first one is always the best. They're all great memories but winning that first final was special," Akers said.
"That was probably our biggest feat because they were the successful side at the time.
"The commitment of the players was marvellous, some of them travelling from all over, from Southampton even, working full-time."
What was the secret to success over a sustained period of more than 16 years? "I was very fortunate to have worked with some great players and staff," Akers said.
"In the early days, there was no money in the women's game. Girls paid to play. But we managed to rebuild teams over the years.
"I am very thankful to David Dein (Arsenal's former vice-chairman) for his support - without him, I wouldn't have my OBE."
When Akers' side beat Charlton 3-0 at Queens Park Rangers' Loftus Road in 2004, Scotland's Julie Fleeting was the heroine, scoring a brilliant hat-trick - but it was not as straight forward as it sounds.
"Julie Fleeting played for Scotland the day before and picked up an injury," Akers revealed. "She had treatment in the hotel and we doubted if she could make it, to be fit in time for the final.
"We knew it would be a massive blow - we later found out just how big a blow it would have been, because she scored a hat-trick.
"That was absolutely amazing, that hat-trick."
While Arsenal Ladies have never played a Women's FA Cup Final at Wembley before, under Akers they did make one rare, historic appearance at the home of football in another competition.
In 1993, the first year women's football came under the auspices of the Football Association, Arsenal beat Knowsley United (now known as Liverpool Ladies) 3-0 in the final of the Women's Premier League Cup.
The date was Saturday, 29 May and the match was played on the same day, at the same ground, as the men's Football League Third Division play-off final. York City won 5-3 on penalties against a Crewe side that included ex-Northern Ireland midfielder Neil Lennon.
It was a unique foray to the home of football for the women's game at the time, and specifically for the League Cup, for which many of the early finals were held at Barnet's old Underhill Stadium.
"We didn't change in main dressing rooms," Akers revealed. "We changed in the opposite end to where the tunnel was.
"There were not many spectators."
Akers, who watched from the stands as Chelsea beat Notts in the 2015 final to secure the first part of a league and cup double, says he will be rooting for individuals on both sides on Saturday.
"Several of the girls at Chelsea used to play for me at Arsenal," he added. "It's great for all the girls.
"I'll have divided loyalties a bit. I'm delighted for all the girls who have got there.
"I've been able to experience the final over the past two years with the men's side, but this will be something special."
In this season's semi-finals, Arsenal thrashed Sunderland 7-0 while Chelsea beat league leaders Manchester City 2-1 after extra-time. | Many onlookers will view Arsenal Ladies as underdogs when they face holders Chelsea Ladies in the Women's FA Cup final at Wembley on Saturday. |
Please give a summary of the document below. | Hostess's owners will sell the company to private equity firm the Gores Group, which plans to take the snack cake maker public later this year.
The Gores Group will pay £725m (£555m) for the brand and Hostess' current owners will take a 42% stake in Gores.
Apollo Global Management and investor Dean Metropoulos bought Hostess in 2013, saving it from bankruptcy.
"Hostess presents a unique opportunity to invest in an iconic brand with strong fundamentals that is poised for continued growth," said Alec Gores, chief executive of the Gores Group.
In 2012 Hostess filed for bankruptcy after failed talks with its workers' union left the company cash-strapped.
Public outcry in the US followed the announcement that the iconic brand - makers of Twinkies, yellow cakes filled with cream; Ding Dongs, chocolate cupcake filled with cream; and Sno Balls, cream-filled chocolate cakes covered with marshmallow frosting - was closing.
Apollo and Mr Metropoulos bought Hostess for $410m and restructured the company.
"We are extremely proud of all that we have accomplished together since we acquired these assets out of liquidation in 2013," said Andy Jhawar, head of the consumer and retail group at Apollo
Hostess has used the tagline "the sweetest comeback ever" to promote its products and had $650m in sales in the last fiscal year, which ended 31 May.
Mr Metropoulos will stay on as executive chairman of Hostess and William Toler will remain chief executive after the company is sold to Gores and begins publicly trading.
Hostess was founded in 1919 and has twice faced bankruptcy.
Gianmarco Peschiera, 14, and Carlos Gonzales, 15, died when the car they were in crashed into a parked lorry on the A9 at Inverness in July 2006.
The church was involved in arranging the trip and the car's driver, Donald MacLeod, 82, was a church member.
Gianmarco's parents wanted to sue the church on the grounds of negligence.
Mr MacLeod had been driving the boys to North Kessock where they were to meet up with the rest of their group for a day trip to Stornoway.
The former rector at Fortrose Academy, in the Black Isle, suffered a fatal heart attack while behind the wheel of his Honda CRV 4x4, which then crashed into a Tesco lorry.
Gianmarco's parents took legal action against the church, the Colegio San Andres school in Lima and the school's former headmaster in 2010.
In a statement, the Free Church of Scotland said: "We can confirm that the legal case in Peru was resolved several months ago.
"This was a tragic accident for all concerned and in particular for the families in both Peru and Scotland who lost loved ones.
"We are pleased that this long running legal process is now at an end." | Hostess, the maker of Twinkies, will return to the stock market four years after it nearly collapsed.

Summarize this article briefly. | In his interview with me two weeks ago, the chancellor could not have been clearer.
While revealing that he was uncomfortable with specific pledges not to increase income tax and national insurance, Philip Hammond says he is instinctively a "low tax politician".
How will the Conservatives deal with this sensitive issue in the manifesto launch later this month?
It's important because the manifesto is the "offer" that a party aiming for government makes to the voter.
It declares: "This is what we will achieve in the next government if we win the general election.
"And you, the voter, can test us against it."
Many close to the chancellor are keen to see some form of pledge on taxation which is specific enough to signal to voters the Tories want to cut taxes.
But broad enough not to leave the government facing anything akin to the Budget mess of two months ago.
On that occasion, Mr Hammond announced an increase in national insurance contributions for the self-employed, only to execute a U-turn a week later after critics pointed out it breached the principle - if not the letter - of David Cameron's 2015 manifesto "tax lock".
That lock said there would be no increases in income tax, national insurance or VAT.
And, despite Theresa May's promising no rise in VAT after the general election (if she is successful) at the weekend, Mr Hammond doesn't want a repeat of the 2015 tax straitjacket.
Which led John McDonnell, the shadow chancellor, to demand following the U-turn: "What will he do to fill the shortfall in a Budget he delivered less than a week ago without pursuing unfair tax increases or further cuts to public services?"
Labour says there is nothing "progressive" about "cutting taxes for the very wealthiest, and for corporations, while hitting the self-employed".
In his interview with me, Mr Hammond used the word "burden" deliberately.
First it suggests that taxes are an imposition and that people would prefer not to pay them, or certainly pay less.
Which may be true in some cases, but is not a universally held opinion.
And second, it matches the language of economic think tanks such as the Institute for Fiscal Studies and the TaxPayers' Alliance which point out that the burden of taxation is at present running at its highest level for three decades and is set to rise, not fall.
The TaxPayers' Alliance - which campaigns for lower taxes - is much referenced by the Chancellor's team.
And, by-the-by, Robert Oxley, its former head of campaigns, is now head of media communications at Conservative Central Office. Where he will remain for the duration of the campaign.
Research by the TayPayers' Alliance says that the tax burden (that's all taxes paid by individuals and businesses as a proportion of gross domestic product) was at its highest last year since 1981.
That's because taxes have risen as the economy has stagnated.
The figure is set to rise further, and by 2020 tax as a proportion of Britain's economic wealth will reach its highest level since 1969.
Stamp duty on house purchases, increases in VAT, increases in taxes for higher rate payers, cuts in tax reliefs on pension allowances and rises in insurance premiums tax have pushed the burden up to 34%.
By increasing the tax threshold - the point at which employees start paying tax - the government says it has cut taxes for millions.
But income tax is not the only way we contribute to the state.
"The government's claims to have been reducing taxes simply doesn't stand up to scrutiny," said Alex Wild, research director at the TaxPayers' Alliance.
"Granted, some have been cut, but others have been raised and new ones introduced with the net result being that last year's tax burden was the highest for 35 years.
"For the average household, the amount of their income they hand over in tax has increased since 2010 and it's deeply concerning that the government sees the need for 'flexibility' to increase the tax take further when it's already set to reach levels unseen for half a century."
The TaxPayers' Alliance says that the government should cap the tax take at 35%.
That is likely to be a step too far for Mr Hammond, who knows that such a pledge could be knocked off-course by a deterioration in economic growth.
Expect some mention of the tax burden in the manifesto. And a possible pledge to reduce it, particularly for those on lower incomes.
It will be carefully phrased, though, over a number of years and with some political wriggle room.
Mr Hammond doesn't want to tie his hands any more than is necessary. | "I came into politics not to see tax rising but to see the burden of taxation falling as our economy grows and that remains my very clear political ambition." |
Summarize the information in the following document. | John Arthur Jones, 66, of Bodffordd, Anglesey, caused dangerous distractions to pilots on night training flights in Hawk jets, Mold Crown Court heard.
He denies 13 charges of endangering aircraft between November 2013 and September 2014.
The court heard Mr Jones had a grievance against the RAF and had, at one stage, considered legal action.
Prosecutor John Philpotts when Mr Jones was interviewed, he alleged pilots were deliberately harassing him by flying over his property from RAF Valley.
He said he only went outside to inspect his property with a torch and may have, on one occasion, instinctively shone it upwards as a jet passed by, but it was not deliberate.
Mr Philpotts said an under cover police officer watched a man shine a torch at aircraft on one occasion and that was Mr Jones.
Mr Jones lives close to a relief landing strip at RAF Mona, which has been used for more than 100 years.
"It is the prosecution case that he became obsessed with the activity of the aircraft flying out," Mr Philpotts said.
"He became displeased by the aviation activity in the skies near his land."
On occasions, jets had to abandon landings, the jury was told.
The light was said to have come from an area close to a reservoir, next to the defendant's property.
Mr Philpotts said the lights were "dangerously distracting" and appeared to be tracking the jets.
The trial continues. | An "obsessed" man repeatedly shone a powerful light at RAF jets flying over his house, a court has heard. |

The leaders of the two countries said their talks had focused on improving co-operation in the energy sector. Trinidad and Tobago has large oil and natural gas resources, while China is the world's largest consumer of energy.
Mr Xi is also travelling to Costa Rica, Mexico and the United States.
"We both agree to actively advance co-operation in key areas of energy, minerals and infrastructure development and also to advance our cooperation in new energy, telecommunications and agriculture," Mr Xi said after meeting Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar.
Ms Persad-Bissessar said her country sees China "as a key business partner and potential new market for our energy products".
Energy Minister Kevin Ramnarine said Trinidad was hoping to benefit from China's strategy "to move the country away from coal and towards natural gas".
Mr Xi also announced that China would loan Trinidad and Tobago $250m (£165m) to build a children's hospital.
Trade between the two countries has been growing, with figures from the International Monetary Fund suggesting it has gone up from $174m to $450m over the last six years,

Police said the fake jellyfish had been made by mixing chemicals, adding that checks showed high levels of aluminium.
The syndicates made more than 170,000 yuan (£18,100; $26,100) in profits in a year of production, they added.
Jellyfish is very popular sliced and served as salad, particularly along China's southern and eastern coasts.
Huzhou municipal police in Zhejiang province, which is leading the investigation said they first found a workshop run by a Mr Yuan, who made and sold the fake jellyfish at a farmer's market.
Mr Yuan then led detectives to a bigger workshop in Changzhou city in neighbouring Jiangsu province run by a Mr Jia who had taught him the "art" of faking jellyfish. He was detained alongside other syndicate members. The arrests were made in late April, but police only made it public late last week
Mr Yuan told the investigators he made the jellyfish by mixing three chemicals - alginic acid, ammonium alum and calcium chloride anhydrous - according to an official release (in Chinese) by Huzhou police on social media platform WeChat.
Officers say they found "excessive levels" of aluminium in the fake jellyfish - up to 800mg/kg, which is eight times of China's own legal limit.
The food and drug safety branch of Huzhou police said too much aluminium could result in bone and nerve damage, and potentially harm memory. They warned against pregnant women, children and the elderly consuming the substance.
Although jellyfish can be poisonous they are considered something of a delicacy in China, described as both tasty and a good source of collagen.
Especially popular in the summer, jellyfish skin is sliced and served like a salad with various dressings.
It appears as if the wild jellyfish supply simply cannot cope with the demand. Zhejiang's Metropolitan Express paper has reported on jellyfish farms in the province. It quotes fish farmers saying that half-a-kilo of jellyfish takes 40 days to raise, with the wholesale price at about 30-40 yuan.
This cost is halved with artificial jellyfish and for obvious reasons, the production time is far less.
The Huzhou police have issued guidance on how to spot the difference.
Artificial jellyfish is tasteless with no smell and is tough to tear and has a texture similar to sellotape.
The real deal? Quite the opposite. It has a fishy smell, and is yellowish and colourful.
In November 2014, Huzhou police, again, caught three individuals selling fake jellyfish made from a similar chemical mixture.
In October 2013, police in central Hunan province broke another jellyfish syndicate.
That group is said to have made 40 tonnes of fake jellyfish, and the ringleader was sentenced to six months in jail. | Chinese President Xi Jinping has held meetings with the leaders of Trinidad and Tobago.

The bank said they will include "advanced security features" and their designs will be unveiled in the coming months.
All four Northern Ireland banks print their own money, a tradition stretching back to the early 19th Century.
Ulster Bank's senior brand manager Lita Notte said it is "an important part of our business heritage and the economy of Northern Ireland".
The new banknotes feature designs on the theme "living in nature", influenced by a panel of historians, botanists, artists, architects and members of the public.

Summarize the content of the document below. | Korryn Gaines, 23, was armed with a shotgun and due to be arrested for an outstanding traffic violation at the time.
Police said she refused to co-operate and opened fire when they tried to enter her apartment.
The boy, who may have been her son, was also shot during the exchange, but is in a stable condition in hospital.
Police said Gaines threatened to kill them. It was unclear whether the child was wounded by the police or Gaines.
The incident lasted hours, with Gaines and Baltimore County police officers locked in a standoff. News of her death has gone viral on social media.
The shooting began after police went to serve arrest warrants on her and a man in the suburb of Randallstown. Gaines was wanted for failing to appear in court for traffic stop charges dating to March. The man was wanted for assault, but was not found at the scene.
"We discharged one round at her," Police Chief James Johnson told reporters at news conference. "In return, she fired several rounds back at us. We fired again at her, striking and killing her."
Gaines was hit by more than one bullet and pronounced dead at the scene. The boy in the apartment was shot in a limb.
He was cradled in her arms when officers finally entered the room.
The officers involved in the shooting have been placed on administrative leave. Baltimore's police started using body cameras a few weeks ago, but the department has not confirmed if those involved were wearing them.

"We should all be cautious to believe the first version of events offered by police when they use lethal force," said Shaun King, a civil rights activist in an article for New York Daily News. "If law enforcement officers make a huge mistake, they will rarely come out and admit such a thing on the day of the event."
There has been a surge of outrage and questioning on social media in the wake of the incident.

A spokesman for the force said: "The age and identity is not currently known and neither is the cause of death."
As part of the inquiry, he said officers are also keen to locate the mother of the child to ensure her wellbeing.
He added: "Those that do come forward should know that the information will be handled in a sensitive way."
Similar schemes already operate in 10 other countries including Australia, Canada, Germany, Spain, and Switzerland.
Various organisations, along with North Wales Police and Crime Commissioner Arfon Jones, say it would save lives.
There were 271 drug-related deaths in 2016, up 30 on the previous 12 months.
The figures also represent the second successive annual rise in deaths following five years of falls.
Glasgow is set to open the UK's first drugs consumption room but the UK government has ruled out the idea in England despite 3,450 fatalities.
The Welsh Government said the issue was "not straightforward".
Mr Jones, a former police inspector, visited Geneva which uses "safe injection facilities" (Sifs).
He said the evidence in Switzerland further convinced him that Sifs could be the way forward as they also can be used to snort or smoke drugs under medical supervision.
"They would give problematic users somewhere secure to go rather than having to inject in public areas and upsetting people with the state they are in," he said.
"They would also be much safer as nobody has ever died in a Sif. This is a major consideration with the number of drug-related deaths in the UK rising.
"There would be someone there to give assistance if something goes wrong with injecting.
"Drugs policy in the UK is killing people and a more tolerant and compassionate approach would start saving lives immediately."
Mr Jones also wants fix rooms to include other drugs such as psychoactive substances.
He added: "It's only a matter of time until we'll be forced to act and the sooner the better."
And Ifor Glyn, regional director of Swansea-based Drugaid Cymru, said: "We've seen this week that drug-related deaths have gone up in Wales and I think there's a moral obligation on people like us and elected members to consider all opportunities.
"We have to start looking at alternatives because as it is, things are not working."
He added: "What we've learned [from visits] is that there's no one model in different areas.
"There are issues about how they fitted into the local communities. Some places have had an outcry by people and others don't even know they are there.
"From what was in [our visit to] Barcelona there was two or three different approaches to the way things were done.
"It's all about getting people into safer places and engage with other treatment services.
"What we've learned more than anything is that the evidence is there to show they can make a difference."
The Welsh Government said there were significant questions about whether such rooms were compatible with current UK legislation relating to the misuse of drugs.
A spokesman added: "Organisations in Wales have established a multi-agency steering group to gather and review the research and evidence."

The 49-year-old appeared in court early on Monday and was taken to a hospital the same morning.
Marion "Suge" Knight has pleaded not guilty to murder, attempted murder and hit-and-run charges after it's claimed he hit two men with his truck, killing one, on 29 January.
He's being held without bail.
David Kenner has been representing Knight since the case was first filed, but the founder of Death Row Records told Los Angeles Superior Court Judge James Brandlin that he has "fired" the lawyers.
Knight faces life in prison if convicted of killing Terry Carter, 55, during an row at a Compton burger stand in late January.
Kenner has claimed Knight was ambushed, but that hasn't been said in court yet.
Knight claims he is blind in one eye and has about 15% vision in the other.
This is the third time that he has been taken to hospital from court since he was charged with murder in early February.
Last year he says he was shot six times and has a blood clot in his lungs along with other medical complications.
He also told the judge that he lost weight as a result of his injuries.
Brandlin transferred Knight's case to another judge but he left for medical care before his case could be called in Judge Ronald Coen's courtroom.
Kenner told the judge that Knight has been jailed for too long and there should be a hearing to set bail as soon as possible.
Knight's next hearing will be on 9 March, although a bail hearing may not happen until 20 March.

Can you summarize the following information? | Tony Morrison arrived in a state of "heightened emotion" at former employee Andrew Mallaby's home after going round to retrieve a company laptop, South Tyneside Magistrates' Court heard.
The 51-year-old said he thought he had caught Mr Mallaby selling client information to a rival marketing firm.
An altercation then took place and he slapped him and bit him on the arm.
Morrison previously denied four charges of assault and one of using violence to get into a home.
Often known as "Tony The Fridge", Morrison has raised about £100,000 for charities and was named fundraiser of the year at the Pride of Britain Awards 2014.
The court heard Mr Mallaby had been part of the team that ran Morrison's business after he stepped down to focus on charity work.
He had run the website and had in his possession a laptop but Morrison said he was "worried" the client information "would be lost forever" if it was not returned.
The court heard Mr Mallaby's sister Lauren rang the police and Morrison was eventually bundled out her family home in Sunderland before leaving the scene.
During the struggle Morrison's trousers split open, leaving him exposed as he was not wearing underwear.
Judge Roger Elsey said: "The sirens of the police officers could be heard but he did not wait for their arrival.
"If he thought he was an innocent man who had been assaulted he would have waited for the police."
Morrison was also convicted of assaulting Mr Mallaby's father George.
Two other charges of assault and a charge of using violence to secure entry were dismissed.
Morrison, from Hebburn, said he had "nurtured" Mr Mallaby for many years and loved him "like a son" and felt "betrayed".
He was handed a 12-month community sentence, ordered to complete 200 hours of unpaid work and pay £600 in compensation and in costs.
They have not clarified the nature of the illness, but the Bild tabloid says its research into Andreas Lubitz's background suggests he has a history of depression.
Lufthansa has said that six years ago Mr Lubitz interrupted his pilot training at the company's flight school in Arizona for several months.
The tabloid quotes unnamed sources in the company as saying that the interruption was caused by a psychological problem, and that one point, the trainee was classed as "unfit to fly".
Overall, he was in psychological treatment for one-and-a-half years during his training, his progress in the course was frequently halted, and in 2009 he was diagnosed with an "abated severe depressive episode", according to the daily.
Security sources are quoted as saying that their working assumption is that Mr Lubitz's relationship with his girlfriend was in crisis, and that he was "lovesick".
The paper says a file on Mr Lubitz at Germany's aviation authority bears the code SIC - apparently requiring him to undergo regular medical checks.
German media examine 'depression' reports
Meanwhile, investigators searching Mr Lubitz's flat in Duesseldorf appear to have found evidence corroborating the claims he had psychological disorder, according to sources quoted by the news magazine Der Spiegel.
The magazine adds that the exact nature of the evidence is not known, although prosecutors on Friday said they had found torn-up sick notes at his flat.
The Sueddeutsche Zeitung says it has been told a note potentially barring Mr Lubitz was from a local neurologist and psychiatrist who had been already treating the pilot for a while. The daily does not name its sources.
Duesseldorf paper Westdeutsche Zeitung reports that a team of seven investigators searched Mr Lubitz's flat for hours on Thursday evening, and have cordoned off the area around it.
Investigators were also present at his parents' home in Montabaur, a quiet country town south of Duesseldorf.
According to Bild, Mr Lubitz spent most of his time at his parents', where he shared the first floor with his brother.
It adds that he appears to have had an active lifestyle, running marathons and being a member of a hang-gliding club, LSC Westerwald.
Before starting his pilot training, Mr Lubitz worked as a flight attendant, earning him the nickname "Tomato Andy" among his fellow trainee pilots.

Provide a brief summary for the information below. | Christopher Griffiths, 35, of Southsea, Wrexham, was convicted of causing unnecessary suffering and carrying out a prohibited procedure.
Victor, a Staffordshire bull terrier-type dog, was mutilated using "a pliers-type implement," Wrexham Magistrates' Court heard.
RSPCA inspector Kia Thomas said: "It was so heartbreaking. It is awful to imagine what poor Victor went through."
On Wednesday, Griffiths was also disqualified from keeping dogs for 10 years and was given a 12-month probation order.
The RSPCA was contacted on 22 September 2015 by police after Victor was found with his ears chopped off.
He was taken to a vet who performed surgery on his ears and stitched up the wounds. During treatment, cocaine was found in Victor's system.
Insp Thomas added: "When I first saw Victor I was just so shocked as his ears were gaping open wounds. I had never seen anything quite like it before.
"Since Victor has been in our care he has been doing so well. He is an adorable dog with a lot of love to give.
"He loves nothing more than to be in your company and loves a cwtch on the sofa. He is now up for rehoming and we hope he will find his forever home soon." | A man who cut off his dog's ears with pliers has been jailed for 24 weeks. |

People who performed better on rhythmic tests also showed enhanced neural responses to speech sounds.
The researchers suggest that practising music could improve other skills, particularly reading.
In the Journal of Neuroscience, the authors argue that rhythm is an integral part of language.
"We know that moving to a steady beat is a fundamental skill not only for music performance but one that has been linked to language skills," said Nina Kraus, of the Auditory Neuroscience Laboratory at Northwestern University in Illinois.
More than 100 teenagers were asked to tap their fingers along to a beat. Their accuracy was measured by how closely their responses matched the timing of a metronome.
Next, in order to understand the biological basis of rhythmic ability, the team also measured the brainwaves of their participants with electrodes, a technique called electroencephalography. This was to observe the electrical activity in the brain in response to sound.
Using this biological approach, the researchers found that those who had better musical training also had enhanced neural responses to speech sounds. In poorer readers this response was diminished.
"It turns out that kids who are poor readers have a lot of difficulty doing this motor task and following the beat. In both speech and music, rhythm provides a temporal map with signposts to the most likely locations of meaningful input," Prof Kraus told BBC News.
The brainwaves recorded matched the soundwaves, she said. "You can even take the recorded brainwave and play it back through your speaker and it will sound like the soundwave.
"It seems that the same ingredients that are important for reading are strengthened with musical experience. Musicians have highly consistent auditory-neural responses.
"It may be that musical training - with its emphasis on rhythmic skills - can exercise the auditory-system, leading to less neural jitter and stronger sound-to-meaning associations that are so essential for learning to read," added Prof Kraus
John Iversen of the University of California in San Diego studies how the brain processes music. He was not involved with the research but agreed that musical training could have important impacts on the brain.
"This study adds another piece to the puzzle in the emerging story suggesting that musical-rhythmic abilities are correlated with improved performance in non-music areas, particularly language," he said.
The midfielder left the Liberty Stadium to join Burnley last month in a deal that could eventually be worth £10m.
Swansea had three head coaches last season, with Paul Clement keeping them in the Premier League after Francesco Guidolin and Bob Bradley were sacked.
"It was tough with the change of managers at Swansea, it did affect us last year," said the 28-year-old.
"They probably made the right decisions with the managers in the end but it did affect us.
"Everyone has seen things in the way he [Clement] does things and how he works. Trust in him has paid off and he's shown what a good manager he can be."

Provide a concise summary of this excerpt. | It has been organised by the Health and Safety Executive for Northern Ireland.
Since 2000, 11 children have died on farms in accidents involving things like farm machinery and slurry gas.
There is a new radio advertisement and talks are being delivered in schools to reinforce the message about the dangers on farms.
David McKay and his wife, Sarah, mind eight grandchildren under the age of seven on their busy County Antrim farm.
He is an agricultural contractor and has lots of heavy machinery coming and going every day.
The children are restricted to a walled garden and the gates leading to the farmyard are alarmed.
"It's a big worry for us, that's why we have the children's farm toys. We bring them up and show them all the dangers," Mr McKay said.
"We have all the gates closed off and we've beams on them and the wife will be there. If she hears one of the beams going off she knows there's some of them out through the gates.
"They usually stay in, they know the rules, they're not allowed out. Safety is number one now."
At Carnaghts Primary School near Ballymena, where two of Mr McKay's grandsons are pupils, principal Ian Henderson has around 25 farm families.
They make up the bulk of the 100 children at his school.
He is very conscious of the farm safety message and builds it into his school curriculum.
In February, when slurry can be spread again after the winter, he creates literacy work sheets that highlight the dangers.
"They were revising capital letters, full stops, commas etc and the content of the work sheet was around the dangers of slurry and slurry gas and associated dangers of machinery," he said.
"So you were learning about the dangers at a very important time of the year and, at the same time, learning about punctuation."
Chief executive of the Health and Safety Executive, Keith Morrison, said the dangers "cannot be overstated".
He said farms were "becoming one of the most dangerous playgrounds for children during the summer months".
Farmers are under pressure to get work done during a busy period with the added risk of contractors operating potentially dangerous equipment, he said.

Earlier in the day, two aid workers were shot dead in northern Yemen.
The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) said that two of its local aid workers were killed as they travelled in a convoy to Sanaa.
It is believed a lone gunman opened fire on their vehicle as they travelled through the northern province of Amran on the way from the Houthi stronghold Saada.
IS militants have claimed a series of suicide bombings against Houthi targets in recent months.
The mosque is in a neighbourhood that supports the Houthi rebels, who seized the capital in February.
Fighting in Yemen has escalated since a Saudi-led coalition intervened militarily against the Houthi rebels at the end of March.
The fighting has now reached 21 out of 22 provinces and some 4,500 people - including at least 2,112 civilians - have been killed, according to the UN.
More than 1.4 million people have also been displaced and 21 million - almost 80% of the population - are in need of some form of humanitarian aid.

It said the new dedicated parking area would open next month.
Mr Holland-Kaye said: "Private hire vehicles, Uber and their like, have just expanded phenomenally and started to cause a real issue to our local communities."
Drivers were "trying to get as close as possible to the airport to pick up a ride," he added.
Earlier this year Uber blocked bookings for drivers in the Surrey village of Stanwell Moor after residents complained of "nightmare" congestion and confrontations.
County councillor Robert Evans said residents were being stopped from parking outside their houses and he had heard reports of drivers urinating in the road as they were waiting for a long time.
Uber said it had changed its technology "back in January" so its "partner-drivers" would no longer receive requests if they were parked in residential streets around Heathrow.

In agreeing the payment out of the island's capital reserve the States also agreed to look at setting long-term strategic objectives, including which routes are operated and the capacity and frequency of flights.
It will also look at measuring the airline's success through its social and economic contribution, rather than just its balance sheet.
The States also commissioned a report giving "serious consideration" to rebranding to a name that "clearly positions it as a Guernsey airline".
Deputy Darren Duquemin was behind the move for change, which he has raised again after it was sidelined in 2013.
"It's not fit for purpose, it is a name that does not help to pay the bills, moreover it is a name that hinders.
"They spend up to £500,000 each year on off-island marketing - how much of this investment is wasted... because of the handicap of what Aurigny admits on its own website is 'not the easiest of names'."
The name is the Norman word for the Channel Island of Alderney.
The report into whether or not a rebrand should take place is due to return to the States before February 2017 with any change due to coincide with the airline's 50th anniversary on 1 March, 2018.

President Trump had said the executive order would be announced this week, but White House officials have now told reporters it is being delayed.
The original order banned refugees and immigrants from seven mostly Muslim countries from entering the US.
The order sparked mass protests and confusion at airports, and US courts have temporarily blocked the ban.
The White House has said the rewritten order will address some of the issues brought up in the courts, while Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly has said it will be a "tighter, more streamlined version of the first executive order".
It is not clear how the new text will differ from the original measure.
Commentators say a repeat of the chaos that followed the initial order could be another blow to an administration that has been at the centre of a series of controversies with just one month in office.
Mr Trump's initial order, signed in January, banned anyone from seven majority-Muslim countries - Iran, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Somalia, Sudan and Libya - from entering the US for 90 days.
It also halted refugee resettlement for 120 days and banned Syrian refugees indefinitely.
But the measure was blocked by a Seattle court, in a decision that was later upheld by 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals, which said the government had not proved the terror threat justified reviving the ban.

What is the summary of the following document? | This method also ensures a degree of secrecy.
The release of radiation from an underground nuclear explosion - an effect known as "venting" - would give away clues to the technical composition and size of a country's device, and therefore its nuclear capability.
The test site is carefully geologically surveyed to ensure suitability. Such tests usually take place well away from population centres.
The nuclear device is placed into a drilled hole or tunnel usually between 200-800m (650-2,600ft) below the surface, and several metres wide.
A lead-lined canister containing monitoring equipment is lowered into the shaft above the chamber. The hole is then plugged with gravel, sand, gypsum and other fine materials to contain the explosion and fallout underground.
The device is remotely detonated from a surface control bunker. The nuclear explosion vaporises subterranean rock, creating an underground chamber filled with superheated radioactive gas.
As this cools, a pool of molten rock collects at the bottom of the chamber.
Minutes or hours after the blast, as the pressure falls, the chamber collapses in on itself causing subsidence and a crater to appear on the surface.
Seismic waves equivalent to a 5.1-magnitude earthquake were registered near the Punggye-ri nuclear site in a remote area in the east of the country, rattling Chinese border cities.
Hours later, state media announced the first "successfully performed" underground test on a hydrogen bomb.
Nuclear experts have expressed some scepticism, saying they would have expected a larger blast from an H-bomb, but it could be weeks before independent tests can verify or dismiss the claim.
This is the fourth nuclear test carried out at Punggye-ri - the previous ones were carried out in 2006, 2009 and 2013.
Opponents of the link - between Birmingham and London - accused the government of unlawfully failing to carry out a strategic environmental assessment (SEA).
They said such an assessment might help to alleviate problems being caused to local people and businesses.
However, three Court of Appeal judges unanimously rejected the challenge.
The challenge was brought by HS2 Action Alliance (HS2AA) and Hillingdon Council in west London - which are both campaigning against the project.
They argued that an SEA was required before "safeguarding directions" could be made by the transport secretary to protect land along the route from planning applications for other, conflicting developments.
Some of the land could be included without any proper debate or assessment of environmental impacts or alternative options, they argued.
However, Lord Justice Longmore, Lord Justice Sullivan and Lord Justice Lewison ruled that an SEA was not required before the safeguarding directions could be made.
Following the ruling, Transport Secretary Patrick McLoughlin pleaded for HS2 opponents - who have mounted a series of legal challenges to the scheme - to end their "fruitless" court cases.
"The courts have once again rejected a legal challenge against HS2 as they have done on repeated occasions," he said, adding that the government had now won 20 out of 21 challenges to the project.
"I invite interested groups to work with us to make HS2 the very best it can be, and not waste more public money on costly and fruitless court cases," he said.
The Court of Appeal ruling backed up the decision of a High Court judge made in August this year.

Dumfries and Galloway Council has agreed to commission the probe into the beleaguered DG One in Dumfries.
Councillors decided to continue repairs on the site which it has already been revealed are set to run at least £3m over their £10m budget.
Council leader Elaine Murray confirmed she would also write to the Health and Safety Executive and Police Scotland.
The local authority is to draw down £500,000 initially to allow repair works to continue.
A report is then expected back within eight weeks to put a final price tag on the remedial work.
They decided against more dramatic options which could have seen the building demolished and replaced or simply knocked down.
"It is not a position any of us would have wanted," said Ms Murray.
"This is the best outcome we could have given the situation - we will be able to deliver a facility for Dumfries."
Earlier, Ms Murray had told councillors she would be contacting the police and the HSE to look at the potential of a criminal investigation.
It echoed calls made by south of Scotland MSP Colin Smyth who said such a probe should not be ruled out.
He said the "eye-watering" scale of repairs meant questions needed to be asked as to whether the building was safe during the time it was being used by the public.
DG One opened in 2008 but a string of problems led to its complete closure in 2014.

Give a concise summary of the following information. | The Belfast Health Trust announced on Friday that children under 14 would be directed to the Royal Belfast hospital for sick children.
The Belfast Trust said the Mater emergency department sees few children - about six a day.
They also announced ambulances would be diverted away from the Mater overnight.
The trust has said it is because of staffing pressures.
It said this was particularly in regards to middle grade staff and consultants and the trust said it would be reviewing the situation.
It only applies to ambulance admissions and the emergency department has remained open to those arriving on foot.
The announcement that all children attending the department would be directed to the Royal Belfast Hospital for Sick Children about two miles away applies to all children, including those going on foot.
The trust believes the fact that there is no specialist paediatric nurses or doctors at the Mater means it is safer to advise the public to go straight to the Royal.
Health Minister Simon Hamilton was asked about the Mater in the assembly on Monday.
"The overnight diverts of ambulances from the Mater are expected to remain in place as a temporary measure and children will be redirected to the nearby Royal Hospital for Sick Children which has a dedicated paediatric emergency department," he said.
"The Belfast Trust seeks to address the concerns identified and recruit senior medical staff.
"If clinicians are coming to me and coming to my department and they are saying that a service as it's being in the short or longer-term is unsafe, then I have a duty to listen to them and I've a duty to act."
However, Unison representative Eoin Stewart, who works at the hospital, said: "The union will fight this tooth and nail, but I'm asking the community to fight this tooth and nail, because what the Belfast Trust has to remember is that it was the local community that built this hospital."
IS, a radical Islamist group whose tactics include mass killings and abductions of minorities, overran the northern city of Mosul last June.

Dr Al-Wazzan had made his comments on BBC Radio Ulster's Talkback programme on Friday.
However, he said on Monday's programme that he realised his comment had "offended many people", adding: "I condemn all kinds of violence."
Asked if he was giving an unconditional apology and was fully retracting his remarks, he said: "Definitely. If people are offended, I apologise to everyone - not only local people but even outside Northern Ireland. Yes I do regret my remarks."
DUP MP Sammy Wilson said: "I'm glad that the remarks have been withdrawn, but one has to ask, given how fundamental the difference is now between what was said today and what was said on Friday, what has caused this change of heart.
"Is it because there is a fear that funding may be withdrawn?"
A Christian pastor from Belfast, who was questioned last summer by police for calling Islam "satanic", accused Dr Al-Wazzan of "speaking with a forked tongue".
Pastor James McConnell from the Whitewell Metropolitan Tabernacle said: "He let himself go on Friday and he's sorry that he let himself go."
He added: "I did not deserve to be investigated because I believe I'm living in a land of free speech.

The tiny hoglets, as they are known, had refused milk from a syringe, a bottle, and a saucer for two days, according to Sadgorod Zoo.
At night, the babies had a heating pad to stimulate their digestion.
Still, nothing helped.
As Muska had recently raised a litter of foster kittens, she had milk to offer - so the zoo decided to try the unusual pairing.

"Now it will take just 17 hours from Perth non-stop."
He added: "The opportunities this opens up are huge.
"It's great news for travellers because it will make it easier to get to London. It's great news for Western Australia because it will bring jobs and tourism. And it's great news for the nation, because it will bring us closer to one of our biggest trade partners and sources of visitors."
The Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners used on the route will carry 236 passengers, Qantas said.
The new flights will make up the longest non-stop passenger route in the world.
The current longest non-stop scheduled flight is Emirates Airlines' 14,200-kilometre Dubai-to-Auckland, New Zealand, service, which takes 16 hours 35 minutes in an Airbus A380.
The first air travel connecting the UK to Australia began in 1935, flying passengers from Sydney to Singapore, where services linked with London-bound flights.
However, the journey time to London was 12 days and included a section on a train.
Qantas launched its pioneering weekly service on the Kangaroo Route on 1 December 1947, initially taking four days and carrying 29 passengers and 11 crew from Sydney to London.
The journey flew to Darwin, in northern Australia, and then on to Singapore, Calcutta in India, Karachi and Cairo, before it travelled to Tripoli, in Libya, and then on to London.
The announcement of the new route comes as Boeing also announced airline Iran Air was buying 80 of its passenger planes.
The 10-year deal includes the purchase of 50 Boeing 737 aircraft and 30 777 planes. | Eight orphaned hedgehogs have survived against the odds at a zoo in the Russian city of Vladivostok, after a kindly cat became their surrogate mum.

Summarize the following content briefly. | Energy officials say existing electric heaters - or geysers - will be phased out over the next five years.
They hope to save up to 400 megawatts of electricity - equivalent to the output of an electrical power plant.
Blackouts have dogged Zimbabwe, despite the fact that 60% of the population have no access to electricity.
This has also hampered investment in what is an already fragile economy, the BBC's Karen Allen reports.
Officials from the state-owned Zimbabwe Electricity Distribution and Transmission Company say the government is expected to publish new regulations by the end of the year.
It is estimated that there are up to 300,000 geysers across the country, with water heating accounting for some 40% of households' electricity bills.
"The country may achieve a power saving in the range of 300 megawatts to 400 megawatts, which in itself is a virtual power plant," Energy Minister Samuel Undenge was quoted as saying by Reuters.
"Solar water heaters (will) become mandatory at every new house before connection to the grid," he added.
Zimbabwe's power generation is currently less than 50% of its peak demand, forcing local businesses to use costly generators.
The government has blamed the shortages on low water levels at the Kariba Dam, bordering Zambia, which generates hydroelectric power, the BBC's southern Africa correspondent Karen Allen reports from Johannesburg.
But officials also concede that a massive lack of investment in the energy sector over the decades is now taking its toll.
IT consultant Chris Norman, 62, received the Legion d'honneur from French President Francois Hollande, alongside three Americans, in Paris.
The passengers overpowered an armed suspected radical Islamist on a high-speed train bound for Paris on Friday.
Mr Hollande said the men "gave a lesson in courage, in will, and thus in hope", during a ceremony at the Elysee Palace.
French authorities are questioning the suspect, Moroccan national Ayoub El-Khazzani, 25.
Mr Norman had told a press conference he decided to act because he thought he was "probably going to die anyway".
"I'd rather die being active, trying to get him down, than simply sit in the corner and be shot," he said.
Speaking after the ceremony, Mr Norman, who lives in France, said: "I'm just amazed, and I really appreciate the honour I've been given, this recognition of what we did.
"But I really don't know whether I deserve it."
Mr Hollande said Mr Norman, and Americans Spencer Stone, Alek Skarlatos, and Anthony Sadler, showed "that faced with terror, we have the power to resist".
He told the four men the entire world admired their courage and "spirit of solidarity", adding they "must be an example for all, and a source of inspiration".
A spokesman for Number 10 said the prime minister had praised the "extraordinary courage" of the men, saying "the bravery of Mr Norman and the other passengers helped to prevent a terrible incident".
Mr Stone and Mr Skarlatos are members of the Air Force and the National Guard respectively.
They were travelling on the train from Amsterdam to Paris on Friday evening with their childhood friend Mr Sadler, who also helped to restrain the attacker.
The incident happened when a French passenger tried to enter a toilet on the train and encountered the gunman. He tried to overpower him and the gun was then fired.
A French-American passenger was injured by the bullet, and the American passengers intervened shortly afterward.
At a press conference at the US Embassy in Paris on Sunday, Mr Stone said: "We ran down, tackled him and hit the ground.
"Alek tackled him and grabbed the gun out of his hand while I put him in a chokehold. It seemed like he kept on pulling more weapons - left and right.
"He pulled out a handgun. Alek took that. He took out a box cutter and was jabbing at me with that. We let go and all three of us started punching him while he was in the middle of us.
"I was able to grab him again and choke him unconscious while Alek was hitting him in the head with the pistol or rifle."

Summarize the passage below. | The Bees started slowly, affording their opponents time to pick passes and they were punished when Drey Wright pulled the ball back to Tariq Fosu-Henry who gave the visitors a sixth-minute lead.
The home side struggled to keep possession in even the simplest situations and manager Martin Allen was forced to make a change after just half an hour, throwing on Jamal Campbell-Ryce.
And the substitute made a real difference, tormenting left-back Ben Dickenson and picking out Shaun Batt just before the break but the striker could only head over from three yards.
Barnet continued to look strong after half-time but still needed Josh Vickers' strong right hand to keep out Wright's shot.
But just a minute after Luke Gambin had seen a shot cleared off the line, Curtis Weston finished off a goal-line scramble to bag an 82nd-minute equaliser.

Summarize the information given below. | The fear, and fury of the green response to Donald Trump is understandable.
Here's a man who has promised to "cancel" the Paris Climate Agreement, and who tweeted that climate change was a hoax invented by the Chinese - though he did seem to dispute this accusation during a presidential debate.
However his admiration for the coal industry and his determination to revive it are not in doubt. None of that sits well with those who believe that climate change is the greatest threat facing the planet.
But there is another school of thought that says that a Trump presidency could actually aid the fight against climate change.
The Paris agreement became part of international law in super-quick time, mainly because countries were aware of Mr Trump's threats to wreck the deal.
"His negative impact is as overblown as his haircut," said Joe Ware from Christian Aid.
"He's already generated the fastest coming into force of any treaty with the ratification of the Paris treaty in record time."
If Mr Trump decides to withdraw the US from the Paris Climate Agreement it would be a blow to the deal - but not the terminal one that many fear.
China, India and all the major emitters have reiterated their belief at this conference that the deal is irreversible and they will honour their commitments. Mr Trump appears to have forged a spirit of unity among all parties at the conference, even the World Coal Association (WCA).
"What we are focussed on is how do we implement the Paris agreement and how do we support countries to implement their nationally determined contributions," said Benjamin Sporton from the WCA.
"That's what Marrakech has been about, and from our perspective that needs to include the focus on low emissions coal technology."
The spirit of unity is also likely to be felt in the US if the new president makes good on his promises to boost coal exports and allow the extraction of oil and gas on Federal lands.
Environmental movements are already reporting an increase in membership enquiries.
If President Trump revives the Keystone pipeline, he could galvanise a new generation of climate activists.
"Young people in the US know well that it is ridiculous to be denying climate," said former Irish president and UN climate envoy Mary Robinson.
"In so far as it is, it seems to me to be an issue that some lobbyists want fossil fuel to continue, that is a last gasp, like the tobacco industry and it's not going to succeed."
One of Mr Trump's most prominent campaign promises has been on revitalising America's infrastructure.
This is an issue on which he might garner much political support.
City mayors and other authorities are likely to want to see some of that cash spent on green measures like energy efficiency in offices, homes and buildings.
It saves energy, which saves money - and reduces emissions significantly.
So will insulation make America great again?
"Energy efficiency is the silver bullet for a lot of our problems with climate change and energy poverty," said Joe Ware.
"That has got an appeal to conservatives and liberals and that could really be something that becomes a Donald Trump cross-party success story."
If Trump spends heavily on infrastructure and pursues the use of gas for generating electricity and also spends money on developing cleaner coal, it could turn out that his impact on US emissions will be more positive than most people believe.
And even if he isn't a climate angel, there are other factors that would limit the damage he could do to the progress the US has already made. US Cities and states have already taken significant action. They won't be turning back.
"We survived eight years of George Bush and we were in a much more fragile system then," said Joe Ware.
"We didn't have Paris, we didn't have China leading the way, we didn't have the technology transition we are in at the moment.
"I think he'll be more limited than a lot of people are getting worried about now."

The Grade-II listed Airman's Cross at Airman's Corner is being removed as a roundabout is built to manage traffic diverted by the closure of the A344.
The memorial will then be re-sited in the grounds of the new Stonehenge visitor centre soon to be built nearby.
Work starts next month and the centre is expected to open in Autumn 2013.
English Heritage's Loraine Knowles, said: "We are glad that Airman's Cross will have a safer permanent home at the new visitor centre where many more people will be able to get close to it in future and learn about this aspect of local history.
The memorial commemorates the site of an early military aviation accident on 5th July 1912, in which Capt Eustace Loraine and his passenger Staff Sgt Richard Wilson became the first members of the newly formed Royal Flying Corps to die while on duty.
Wiltshire Council granted Listed Building Consent for the relocation of the memorial, in January 2010.

It was the first time that internal cake supports have been allowed in the competition category, prompting the West Bridgford baker to put the character, played by actor Sean Bean's head on a spike.

"I wanted the hair to look like it's growing. It's actually vermicelli - a rice noodle which I steamed so it bends the way I want it to. Then I airbrushed it to make it look like hair," she said.
"The cake is about five or six layers with the features modelled with chocolate and then covered in chocolate paste as well."
Despite the cake being made from entirely edible ingredients, Ms Butler would not recommend tucking in.
"I don't think I could bring myself to eat it, not because of the hard work that I've put into it.

Write a summary for this information. | More than 75 firefighters are tackling the blaze at Selsey Academy in School Lane. Plumes of black smoke can be seen coming from the site.
The blaze broke out about 08:00 BST, with more than 60 calls being made to Sussex Control Centre.
The fire could be seen clearly from Selsey Football Club, which was tweeting footage of the flames.
People in the vicinity are advised to stay clear of the smoke, remain inside and keep their windows closed, but crowds have gathered to watch the firefighting effort.
One resident, whose house overlooks the school, said she saw "plumes and plumes of black smoke towering above the house, rather like an apocalypse".

What is the brief summary of the provided content? | Then it was a question of striking at President Assad's forces as punishment for his use of chemical weapons. In the event the government lost the vote and no bombing occurred.
Since then the Islamic State organisation has emerged, controlling what it describes as a caliphate, encompassing territory in both Iraq and Syria.
IS has also demonstrated its ability to carry out or inspire attacks against tourists in Tunisia, against a Russian airliner over Egypt, and against a variety of targets on the streets of Paris.
A broad coalition (including the UK) is carrying out air strikes against IS in Iraq and a smaller number of countries are hitting targets in Syria too. (RAF aircraft are conducting intelligence-gathering missions over Syria, but generally not releasing any weapons.)
Mr Cameron went to the House of Commons on Thursday to set out the government's case for extending air strikes into Syria.
He clearly believes that this is the right thing to do, that Britain's participation wasn't just essential alongside its key allies, but that it would also make a difference to the campaign. And furthermore, he believes that a reinforced military effort would bolster diplomatic efforts to end the Syrian crisis and increase the chances of a comprehensive settlement.
So, can British forces make a difference?
The PM argues that the particular capabilities of the RAF - the Raptor reconnaissance pods on its Tornado aircraft and their ability to deliver small but highly accurate Brimstone missiles - provide something that others don't have.
That, he says, is one of the reasons why Washington and Paris want the UK engaged. The RAF's equipment is well-suited to so-called dynamic targeting - i.e. where an aircraft overflies a selected area, locating targets for itself and then engaging them.
This particular "niche" capability is one that even the Americans don't have and combined with the Raptor pod, which is responsible for some 60% of the tactical intelligence gained over Iraq, it is a useful additional tool to have in the airpower toolkit.
However, there are only eight RAF Tornados currently based in Cyprus.
While there is talk that if strike operations are extended to Syria, a small number of additional jets may be deployed, Britain's air contribution remains relatively small, though nonetheless significant.
With the arrival of the French carrier in the eastern Mediterranean, for example, France has more than three times the number of aircraft the UK has.
Mr Cameron also explicitly ruled out the deployment of British combat troops on the ground. Indeed he insisted that there were local ground "troops" - be it Kurdish or Sunni fighters - who were capable of retaking and holding territory from IS.
Let's look at some of the key elements of the prime minister's case.
IS represents a real and direct threat to the UK. This is about Britain's national security and the safety of British citizens. They had already been attacked abroad in Tunisia. IS, the PM said, had repeatedly tried to carry out attacks in the UK; several plots in the UK linked or inspired by IS have been disrupted.
Bombing in Syria would not change the threat equation in the UK. Britain, he insisted, was already under the highest level of possible threat from IS. The intelligence chiefs believe that Britain is in the top tier of potential IS targets.
This is all part of a comprehensive strategy. Mr Cameron was at pains to stress not only the need for military action but also its limits. It had an important part to play within a wider comprehensive approach that included diplomacy, humanitarian aid and, in the longer term, efforts to help the governments of Iraq and (one day) Syria to build up good governance.
Mr Cameron made his arguments well and the government has released a lengthy written response to the Commons Foreign Affairs Committee, whose earlier report raised many questions about the whole trajectory of the struggle against IS. It would be fair to say that many of those questions were heard again in the Commons today.
What would Britain's additional contribution to the effort in Syria really amount to? Were the available ground forces, especially in Syria, really capable of doing the job against IS?
Above all, is this much-vaunted comprehensive approach really worth its name? Syria is such a complex problem. How does the war against IS fit in with the struggle to remove President Assad and create a new inclusive government in Syria? Can one battle be disentangled from the other?
Mr Cameron acknowledges this complexity. But his case is that something needs to be done now and that British inaction also has consequences.
In the wake of the Paris attacks in particular, there is a sense that the mood in the Commons is changing. But has it changed enough to give Mr Cameron the clear backing that he needs? | The world has changed dramatically since August 2013 when the British government last tried to win parliamentary approval to conduct bombing operations in Syria. |

"That's how I would - and will - think about it.
"We've had discussions about these things already. There are a few issues we need to correct and touch.
"Whether changes need to be made, that's not always entirely my decision. We want to make sure we are better off no matter if we stay in the Premiership or go down."
United face Hibs in the Scottish Cup semi-final on Saturday at Hampden and Paatelainen insists that he does not view it as an unwelcome distraction.
"Obviously last weekend was a disappointment because we didn't perform," he said of the home defeat by Inverness Caledonian Thistle.
"A couple of results didn't go our way, but they have a chance now to play in a semi-final and get to the final - a glorious opportunity to bounce back and play well.
"We know we have plenty of boys in the dressing-room who will think like that.
"It would give us a boost to look forward to a cup final."
Hibs will themselves head for Hampden having suffered a slump in form during their bid for promotion from the Championship, but Paatelainen stressed that his former club, who beat United 3-0 in the Scottish League Cup quarter-final in November, "have the quality to hurt us".
"They have very good players," he added. "Their squad is fit for the Premiership - and to do well in the top flight.
"That's how good their players are - and they have a good management team."
The bad weather reduced Sussex's innings to 45 overs and after slipping to 100-5, Chris Jordan (55) and David Wiese (41) pushed them to 239 all out.

Rory Burns made 70 not out and Ben Foakes an unbeaten 61 as Surrey reached 235-4 with nearly 10 overs to spare.

Headguards were first introduced into competition in 1984 but will be removed again for October's World Amateur Boxing Championships in Kazakhstan.
The decision was based on two separate studies which put forward evidence that the removal will decrease concussions.
Women and male boxers below senior level will continue to wear headguards.
AIBA's medical commission studied more than 2,000 bouts and independent research in a recent article, which studied 30,000 contests over 59 years, in the British Journal of Sports Medicine both supported the removal.
The International Olympic Committee has yet to officially confirm that headguards will be removed for the 2016 Rio Olympics but their medical commission were part of the discussion process with AIBA.
"It is AIBA's duty to bring the sport of boxing to the pinnacle of the Olympic movement and I am convinced that these changes will critically contribute to the development of our beloved sport," said AIBA president Dr Ching-Kuo Wu.
Some elite male amateur boxers have competed already without headguards in the World Series of Boxing which is a semi-professional franchise-based branch of AIBA in which Great Britain are represented by British Lionhearts.
WSB began in 2010 and includes team and individual competitions, with the latter offering Olympic places for successful participants.
AIBA is also set to launch its own professional boxing body (APB) later in 2013 which will allow, like WSB, amateur boxers to earn purses for competing while maintaining their Olympic eligibility which was previously prohibited.
All three forms of the sport will also be judged on the 10-point must system as the computer-based points-scoring system, which has been in place since the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, is to be abandoned.

Can you provide a brief summary for this document? | The new real-time meters will only save consumers a small amount of money on their energy bills, the Science and Technology Committee said.
The government must do more to convince people of the extra benefits that the system can bring, it said.
These included a smarter energy grid and less pollution.
The government wants every home and business to be offered a smart meter by the end of 2020. That requires 53 million meters to be fitted in more than 30 million premises over the next four years.
The meters will measure gas and electricity use and automatically send meter readings to energy suppliers, ending manual meter readings.
However, there have been mishaps during the major installation programme.
The communication system that links meters to energy suppliers has been delayed.
The committee also pointed out that there was an "unresolved" problem of early meters installed in the first phase of the rollout losing their "smart" function when the customer switches supplier.
The committee's interim chairwoman, Tania Mathias, said: "The government has known for years that early smart meters can lose their smartness if the customer switches supplier.
"Ministers merely have an 'ambition' to fix this by 2020. Taxpayers will be unimpressed with this situation, and timely action is needed.
"The evidence shows that homeowners and businesses need to receive tailored advice about how they can benefit from smart metering.
"The 'smartness' comes from what customers can do with them - fit and forget would be a wasted opportunity."
She added that the government needed to do more to convince and reassure customers that the technology was safe from being hacked.
A spokeswoman for the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy said: "Smart meters will bring Britain's energy infrastructure into the 21st century - as the committee has made clear."
Sacha Deshmukh, chief executive of Smart Energy GB, which is running the campaign for the rollout, said: "The committee has also emphasised the transformative effect smart meters will have, not only on how we buy and use energy as individual consumers, but on Britain's energy infrastructure as a whole." | The smart meters project risks being a wasted opportunity for households if they are just fitted and forgotten, a committee of MPs has said. |

Scottish Water said an increase in household charges was being limited to 1.6% for all council tax bands.
This means the average Scottish Water household charge in 2017/18 will be £357 - less than £1 a day.
The current average charge of £389 in England and Wales is £32 higher than in Scotland.
Charges for 2017/18 in England and Wales have yet to be announced.
Scottish Water has promised that by 2021 household charges overall will have fallen in real terms.
The company plans to invest £3.5bn in projects across Scotland between 2015 and 2021.
It said the six-year investment would be made in water treatment works, pipes and networks - providing customers with improved service, enhancing the environment and supporting jobs in the Scottish economy.

Chief executive Douglas Millican said: "Scottish Water customers continue to enjoy the benefits of one of the UK's best value water and waste water services.
"The quality of drinking water received by our customers has never been higher, while we've continued to achieve excellent customer satisfaction results.
"We are firmly focused on meeting our customers' expectations of us. That's why we're building on the significant improvements we've made to water services by providing value for money, stability and certainty in charge levels.
"By 2021, we expect to deliver further improvements to drinking water quality and environmental performance while at the same time ensuring that overall household charges have fallen further in real terms." | West Brom have signed Matt Phillips from Championship side QPR on a four-year deal reported to be worth £5.5m.

Write a short summary of the following excerpt. | The 53-year-old Portuguese, who was sacked by the Blues in December, is increasingly hopeful of succeeding Louis van Gaal at Old Trafford.
No agreement has been reached, and the club have made no comment, but negotiations have begun.
Dutchman Van Gaal, 64, is expected to leave United at the end of the season - one year earlier than scheduled.
That would leave the way clear for Mourinho, who is known to be excited by the prospect of taking over at Old Trafford.
The United hierarchy are thought to be keen to respond after Manchester City secured the services of coveted former Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola earlier this week.
Mourinho's arrival would mean a resumption of a rivalry that began in Spain when he was coach of Real Madrid between 2010 and 2013.
Twice in recent weeks, Van Gaal's tenure has seemed perilous.
However, defeats by Stoke on Boxing Day and Southampton on 23 January have been followed by an improvement in both form and performance.
United, who are five points adrift of the Champions League places, play Chelsea on Sunday (16:00 GMT).
It is widely assumed the most obvious alternative to Mourinho is Ryan Giggs, Van Gaal's assistant.
The Welshman, who joined United aged 14, made a record 963 appearances for the club and won 13 Premier League titles.
The 42-year-old took over as manager on an interim basis in April 2014 following the sacking of David Moyes.
Although he has not spoken about the United job since Van Gaal took over, it would be a surprise were he not interested in replacing the Dutchman should the opportunity arise.
However, while Giggs was happy to further his education under Van Gaal, he is unlikely to be as willing to work with Mourinho.
Mourinho's first spell as Chelsea manager lasted from 2004 to 2007, and included two Premier League titles.
On his return, he again led the London club to the title, but left just seven months later.

He made a disastrous start to this season, losing nine of the first 16 league games, and departed with the team 16th in the league, one point above the relegation zone.
The former Porto boss fell out with the Blues' medical team, in particular club doctor Eva Carneiro, after describing them as "naive" for running on to the pitch to treat midfielder Eden Hazard during a draw against Swansea in August.
Carneiro, who left the club on 22 September, is taking legal action against Mourinho and the Blues.
Mourinho has never hidden his admiration for United, and particularly their legendary former manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
Speaking before taking his Inter Milan side to Old Trafford for a Champions League last-16 tie in 2009, he said: "I want to face the best and United are a team of champions with a super coach in Alex Ferguson."
But after being linked with the manager's job following the departure of Ferguson in 2013, he declared his allegiance to Chelsea.
"I would have turned down every job in the world - the Manchester United job, every one - for Chelsea," he said.
There were reports last month that Mourinho had written a six-page letter outlining his suitability for the United role, but that was dismissed as "absurd" by his agent.
Simon Stone - BBC Sport football reporter
Before the red carpet is rolled out to welcome Manchester United's new manager, a word of warning.
Talks should not be interpreted as an agreement, as an offer, or even the promise of one. None of that has happened.
Neither should we assume Ryan Giggs is out of the running, nor that the merits of Laurent Blanc and Mauricio Pochettino, the two other realistic candidates for the job, have been discarded.
The fact is, given the pressure Louis van Gaal has been under recently, United's hierarchy simply would not be doing their jobs properly if they did not at least get some idea of the thinking behind the major candidates.
And what of Van Gaal?
He may have twice looked as though he was on the brink of being sacked, but he is still in a job and on Tuesday his side delivered their best performance of the season in beating Stoke 3-0.

It was released by China's National Computer Network Emergency Response Technical Team and Coordination Centre, state-run media said on Monday.
It said cyber attacks affected 8.9m computers in 2011, up from 5m in 2010.
China is often accused of cyber attacks on foreign government agencies and firms. Beijing routinely denies this.
A recent report from a US congressional panel said that China's cyber warfare skills could pose a threat to the United States military.
According to Monday's report from the CNCERT, 11,851 foreign internet protocol (IP) addresses had controlled 10,593 Chinese websites in 2011. It said Japan was the top source of attacks, followed by the US and South Korea.
Wang Minghua, deputy director of CNCERT's operations department, was quoted by the state-run China Daily as saying that foreign hackers changed the content of 1,116 Chinese websites, including 404 that were run by government agencies.
"This shows that Chinese websites still face a serious problem from being maliciously attacked by foreign hackers or IP addresses," he said.
He added that there could have been more instances of hacking, but it was difficult to trace.
The report also claims that the cyber attacks were aimed at online banking users.
Zhou Yonglin, a CNCERT director, added that in some cases, the hackers "had intended to access state networks and steal confidential information".
Speaking in Germany, he accused Europe of complacency over its own defence and called on Nato allies to spend more on international security.
Mr Obama also appealed to the EU to rise above current divisions which, he said, were weakening the continent.
A migrant crisis and a UK referendum on EU membership in June have raised questions about Europe's unity.
Mr Obama called on EU states to share the burden of mass migration and see off those he accused of "exploiting people's fears".
Speaking in Hannover, Mr Obama said he was to send up to 250 more special forces troops to Syria to support local militias in the fight against so-called Islamic State (IS).
The new deployment will bring to 300 the number of US special forces soldiers in Syria.
He said that in the face of shared security threats, a "strong united" Europe remained a "necessity for all of us".
"It's a necessity for the United States because Europe's security and prosperity is inherently indivisible from our own," he said.
"A strong united Europe is a necessity for the world because an integrated Europe remains vital to our international order."
He said that every Nato member should be contributing "its full share - 2% of GDP - towards our common security - something that doesn't always happen".
He added: "I'll be honest, sometimes Europe has been complacent about its own defence."
Mr Obama described the EU as one of the biggest achievements in modern history.
"More then 500 million people, speaking 24 languages in 28 countries, 19 with a common currency in one European Union, remains one of the greatest political and economic achievements of modern times," he said.
Mr Obama was speaking ahead of key talks in Hannover with the leaders of the UK, Germany, France and Italy. Syria and other foreign policy issues were believed to have topped the agenda.
At the weekend, Mr Obama told the BBC the UK would have less influence if it voted to leave the EU in the June referendum.
He also said the UK could take up to 10 years to negotiate trade deals with the US if it left the EU.

Summarize the following content briefly. | Connor Sparrowhawk suffered an epileptic fit while in a bath at Slade House in Oxford in July 2013.
Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust eventually admitted responsibility and offered his family compensation.
The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) told the BBC it will now prosecute the trust.
Following the announcement, Mr Sparrowhawk's mother Sara Ryan said: "I still feel really sad about it.
"I just feel we've been put through the mill. We have been treated appallingly and a young man should be doing whatever he would be doing right now.
"He should never have died."
The HSE said it was prosecuting the trust "under Section 3 of the Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974 following its investigation into the death of a patient under its care".

Write a concise summary for the following article. | The youth worker, from Sheringham in Norfolk, played Peter Beale as a child from 1998 until 2004.
Shade, 24, admitted five counts of causing or inciting a child under 18 to engage in sexual activity while in a position of trust and one count of sexual activity with a child.
He was released on bail and will be sentenced at a later date.
The offences were committed against three girls aged between 14 and 17, and happened between 2012 and 2015, Norwich Crown Court heard.
More news from Norfolk
Shade was a youth worker at a project in Norfolk at the time when he sent sexual text messages to girls and touched one on the bottom, prosecutor Chris Paxton said.
The former soap actor had been helped by the youth project himself, but "as he reached the age of 18 he became formally employed as a youth worker... and engaged with many young people who came from similar backgrounds and vulnerabilities as he had", Mr Paxton said.
"During the course of his employment he accepts by his pleas that his relationships became too close to a number of attendees and he would engage with them by texting them messages asking them to have sex or to send sexual pictures of breasts and the like.
"On one occasion and only one occasion he touched one of them."
Shade had no previous convictions and was "tearful and expressed a degree of remorse" when interviewed by police, Mr Paxton told the court.
He had initially denied 11 sexual offences against four girls, but changed his plea, admitting to six counts against three of the teenagers.
The prosecution ordered the remaining five counts to lie on file.
Judge Maureen Bacon warned Shade he could face a jail sentence.
Speaking after the hearing, an NSPCC spokesman said: "Shade was trusted to protect children but he appallingly abused this trust by carrying out sex offences against them.
"Crimes of this nature can have a lasting effect on children and [his] young victims must receive all appropriate support to recover."
Shade is one of a number of actors who have appeared in the BBC soap playing Ian and Cindy Beale's son, Peter. The character was named after his grandfather, market stallholder Pete Beale.

Can you provide a brief summary for this document? | Ajer, a project player for now, brings the number of midfielders at Celtic Park to 17 with another five currently on loan at lower-league clubs. On the face of it, 17 - or 22 depending on how you look at it - is an eye-watering number, but, of course, the overall figure is a bit misleading.
Among that cavalry are young players on loan and who may never get a look-in, plus the deadwood that is Derk Boerrigter, a passenger who has cost Celtic, between transfer fee and wages, somewhere north of £4.5m since his arrival from Ajax in 2013.
Strip out those who haven't got any kind of realistic shot at the first team next season and you are still left with more than a dozen and possibly as many 14 or 15 midfield players at Celtic Park.
The club is on a hoarding mission. In one area of the pitch they're bursting at the seams. In another area - up front - they are almost threadbare.
Consider opening day next season and the possible Celtic line-up from their usual two holding players to the three ahead of them and then Leigh Griffiths up top. Scott Brown and Nir Bitton would probably be the two buffers. Stuart Armstrong, Stefan Johansen and Gary Mackay-Steven could be the three.
Or maybe Charlie Mulgrew and Ajer - if he develops quickly - could be the holding players with James Forrest, Kris Commons and Roberts ahead of them. Then again, Callum McGregor and Liam Henderson - presuming he returns from Hibs - could hold the fort in the defensive midfield roles with Tom Rogic, Scott Allan and Ryan Christie playing in the advanced positions.
Choices, choices. Too many. There isn't a chance in hell that manager Ronny Deila can keep everybody, never mind keep everybody sweet.
Ajer is a development player so he can't be expecting much game-time - he might end up as a centre-half in any event - but most of the rest of them will be looking for plenty of action and most of them are going to be disappointed.
Roberts is an interesting customer. Clearly he's an extremely talented kid and, after Manchester City paid £12m for him, his reputation is skyscraper-high. He's not Celtic's player, but the next 18 months could see him thrill fans and make them suspend reality and pretend that he's one of their own.
If you can forget for a moment that he's only there on loan, Roberts' signing could be something special.
Manchester City would not have given him to Celtic for that length of time if the deal didn't come with a commitment to play him regularly. That was Celtic's bargaining chip - first-team football.
Who would you have alongside him? Commons, Johansen, Rogic, McGregor, Allan? And who would play outside him? Armstrong, Mackay-Steven, Forrest, Christie, Henderson?
Celtic have more midfielders in their squad than Imelda Marcos had shoes in her wardrobe.
Some will be bit-part players, some will have no part to play at all and will be quietly moved on.
There needs to be a cull. Deila has arrived at a bizarre situation where he has way too many midfielders - and too many similar-type midfielders - and not nearly enough strikers - and only one effective striker.
The imbalance is the thing. In defence, Celtic are attempting to make things right. They have a first-choice of Mikael Lustig, Jozo Simunovic, Erik Sviatchenko and Kieran Tierney. Lustig is the only one of that lot who's over 24. That's a promising combination once it has a chance to bed-in.
The back-up doesn't inspire confidence, but at least it exists in bits and pieces. Up front, Griffiths is not just The Man, he's pretty much The Only Man.
You'd call Colin Kazim-Richards a deeply odd acquisition but then what level of puzzlement would you reserve for Carlton Cole? These two have a combined age of 61, zero sell-on value and a questionable - at best - goal threat.
Celtic's most expensive strikers are on loan. Nadir Ciftci is in Turkey, Stefan Scepovic is in Spain and Anthony Stokes is in Edinburgh but may as well be in Timbuktu as far as Deila is concerned.
Deila is packing his squad with midfielders and giving himself a world of choice, but in the business of strikers Celtic continue to leave themselves curiously short.
At some point in the summer they'll need to think about the doomsday question and come up with a compelling answer: What happens if Griffiths gets injured or loses form? How do you like the sound of 4-6-0? | Having already completed the loan signing of, ahem, the 'English Messi' - the 19-year-old Patrick Roberts - Celtic have now, it seems, plunged for a 'Norwegian wonderkid' in Kristoffer Ajer, the 17-year-old just brought in from IK Start on a four-year deal. |

He said: "If it comes later on people will have lost that initial interest.
"You really want to capture that interest at the time of release."
Mr MacDonald added: "In many ways the small independents need more support than the large cinemas and the multiplexes that can attract large audiences all year round."

Other sites include Cawdor Castle near Nairn, Elgin Cathedral and Glamis Castle in Angus.

Please provide a concise summary of the following section. | Seventy-one lorries reached rebel-held Madaya and Zabadani, near Damascus, and government-controlled Foah and Kefraya, in Idlib province, on Sunday.
They brought food, medical supplies and hygiene kits for 60,000 people.
Last week, the UN suspended aid deliveries across Syria for 48 hours after a deadly attack on a convoy.
The US and Russia, which support opposing sides in the country's five-year civil war, have blamed each other for the incident.
It came as a week-old truce brokered by the two powers collapsed and the government's bombardment of rebel-held areas of Aleppo resumed.
A monitoring group said dozens of air strikes hit the northern city and its surrounding countryside overnight, killing and wounding a number of people.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights has documented the deaths of 237 people, including 38 children, in Aleppo since last Monday, when the truce ended.
The ICRC, which managed the latest aid deliveries jointly with the Syrian Arab Red Crescent and the UN, announced that 53 lorries reached Madaya and Zabadani on Sunday afternoon.
Some 40,000 people in the towns have been besieged since June 2015 by the Syrian army and allied fighters from Lebanon's Hezbollah movement.
In early January, reports that children and old people were dying amid shortages of food, water and medicine in Madaya caused international outrage.
The government was persuaded to allow in several aid convoys between January and April, but none included adequate food and medical supplies to stave off malnutrition for all the town's residents, according to US-based Physicians for Human Rights.
The latest aid deliveries to Madaya and Zabadani were co-ordinated with the arrival of 18 lorries in Foah and Kefraya, where conditions are said to be similarly dire for their 20,000 residents.
The two predominantly Shia towns, near the northern city of Idlib, were encircled by rebels and allied jihadists from Jabhat Fateh al-Sham in March 2015.
Their electricity and water supplies have been cut since then and, while government aircraft have occasionally dropped aid over the areas, there are grave shortages of food and medicine.
The UN estimates that 13.5 million people are in need of humanitarian assistance in Syria. Of these, 5.47 million are in hard-to-reach areas, including 600,000 in 18 besieged areas.
The UN had hoped to take advantage of the cessation of hostilities brokered by the US and Russia two weeks ago to deliver aid to besieged areas, but subsequently complained that the Syrian government had failed to issue the necessary permits.

Provide a concise summary of this excerpt. | Overnight, small groups attacked shops in several areas around Johannesburg, the country's commercial hub.
Police used rubber bullets to disperse looters in Alexandra, a township north of the city.
At least six people have died in anti-foreigner attacks in the eastern port city of Durban, with violence spreading to other parts of the country.
Several thousand foreigners have fled their homes to shelter in makeshift camps, and neighbouring Zimbabwe, Malawi and Mozambique have announced plans to evacuate citizens.
Meanwhile, police have urged people to stop sending unverified social media messages about attacks on foreigners because they are causing panic.
President Jacob Zuma has cancelled a trip to a summit in Indonesia because of the wave of violence against foreigners. On Saturday afternoon he is due to visit the Chatsworth refugee camp in Durban.
Addressing the latest violence, police spokesman Lungelo Dlamini told the AFP news agency: "More than 30 people were arrested last night. They are going to be charged for public violence, malicious damage to property, house breaking and theft."
Overall, 50 people have been arrested in the Johannesburg area and 112 in Durban since the trouble began.
Migrants, mostly from other African states and Asia, have moved to South Africa in large numbers since white-minority rule ended in 1994.
Many South Africans accuse them of taking jobs in a country where the unemployment rate is 24%.
President Zuma has condemned the xenophobic attacks as "shocking".
"No amount of frustration or anger can justify the attacks on foreign nationals and the looting of their shops," he told parliament on Thursday.
Zulu King Goodwill Zwelithini has been accused of fuelling the attacks by saying that foreigners should "go back to their countries". However, he says his comments were distorted.
Official data suggests there are about two million foreign nationals in South Africa, about 4% of the total population. But some estimates put the number of immigrants at five million.
Many South Africans are against the violence, but are also unhappy with the level of immigration and feel they are being undercut by immigrants from poorer countries, the BBC's Milton Nkosi in Johannesburg reports.
At least 62 people died in xenophobic attacks in South Africa in 2008.

Please summarize the document below. | Bells rang out in the capital Pyongyang at midnight on Friday as the new time zone came into effect.
North Korea announced the move earlier this week, surprising South Korea whose president warned it ran counter to efforts to foster co-operation.
The North had been nine hours ahead of GMT - like South Korea and Japan.
But before being colonised by Japan in 1910, the entire Korean peninsula - then one country - was 8.5 hours ahead of GMT.

North Korea's chief astronomer Jong Sok said changing time zones made a lot of sense - and was appropriate as the country marked 70 years since it was liberated from Japanese rule.
"With the time standard that we have used up until now, the time when the sun is at its highest position is not correctly noon," he told the Associated Press.
"I think it is the lawful right of a sovereign state that our republic - to mark the 70th anniversary of our liberation and the 70th anniversary of the defeat of Japanese imperialism - has announced our time as Pyongyang Time, the same as our ancestors used and which was robbed from us by the Japanese imperialists."
State news agency KCNA said earlier this week "wicked Japanese imperialists" had "deprived Korea of even its standard time" by changing the clocks during the occupation.
South Korean president Park Geun-hye said on Monday Pyongyang's "unilateral" decision, taken without any consultation with Seoul, was "highly regrettable" and threatened a "further deepening of disparity between the two Koreas".
The sessions at the Pulse leisure centre in Dursley, Gloucestershire, have been changed to adults only.
Stroud District Council said they hoped people would "understand we have to abide by the law".
The decision has been derided on social media and described as being against the spirit of equalities legislation.
The women-only classes have run at the centre for years and take place for an hour once a week.
But from next month the classes will be open to both men and women, after a single complaint.
"We've run these ladies-only sessions for years but we were recently contacted to justify why we ran them, as single-sex classes are likely to be in breach of the Equalities Act 2010," a spokesman for the council said.
"Consequently we've had to change the sessions to 'adults-only swims'.
"While this may not be ideal for everyone, we hope they will understand we have to abide by the law."
Conservative councillor in the town Loraine Patrick said the decision went against the spirit of equalities legislation.
"To say that I'm astonished, furious, outraged is putting it mildly," she said.
"The Equalities Act is meant to give everyone a chance. But taking that session away removes that chance to swim for a lot of people, so it is not equal.
"This may be the letter of the law but is certainly not the spirit."
The decision has been derided on social media in the town, with some suggesting they will complain about age discrimination in retaliation.
Hannah Norman wrote: "I can't believe they have stopped a session that enables women the opportunity to feel safe and confident. How ridiculous. They should have just made a men-only session too." | North Korea has switched to a new time zone, turning its clocks back by 30 minutes to mark its liberation from the Japanese at the end of WW2.

Hundreds of car enthusiasts have been at Bromyard's Festival of Speed which organisers said is to celebrate the area's motoring history.
The chairmen of the Austin, Bean and Morgan all lived locally and parts for Morgan three wheelers were made there.
The vehicles have paraded through the town and also on display.
Mr Campbell first gained the world speed record in 1924 for travelling at more than 140 mph in a Sunbeam he called Bluebird.
The vehicle has also taken part in the parade, alongside about 120 other vintage and historic cars.
Organisers said the town and its immediate locality has been linked to the British motor industry since the birth of the motor car.
"Automotive engineering was first started in Bromyard by the Pettifer family, who manufactured chassis components for the iconic Morgan Three Wheeler in 1910, prior to the building of the Malvern factories.
"For this, our first year, Morgan who are proud to be the UK's last privately owned motor manufacturer, will be the featured company in line with their special association with Bromyard."

Can you summarize the following content in brief? | The European Union has ordered stress tests on all nuclear power stations. Germany has gone a step further and taken older plants out of service.
Switzerland, though not a member of the European Union, is taking a long, hard look at its nuclear power industry too with, many Swiss believe, very good reason.
Switzerland currently gets about 40% of its energy from nuclear power, but its plants are ageing.
The Beznau 1 pressurised water reactor is the oldest in the world still in operation, it came on stream more than 40 years ago, in 1969.
The other four Swiss reactors all date from 1984 or earlier, none were built after the Chernobyl nuclear disaster of 1986, and in 1990, the Swiss, still with Chernobyl in mind, approved a moratorium on new plants.
More recently however, that policy changed, when Switzerland, concerned to reduce fossil fuel consumption, backed replacements for the oldest nuclear plants.
But that plan came to an abrupt halt early on Monday morning 14 March. After a weekend watching the unfolding disaster in Japan, Switzerland's minister for energy and the environment, Doris Leuthard, announced that all plans for new nuclear plants would be suspended.
"Safety is the highest priority for us, so I have decided to suspend these plans, until we know for certain if our own safety regulations are enough in light of these new developments," said Mrs Leuthard.
"I want to know the exact causes of the events in Japan, whether risks were underestimated, and how much this will affect our own nuclear safety regulations."
Her decision made the Swiss government the first in Europe to officially change its nuclear power policy in response to the disaster in Japan.
But doubts about Switzerland's nuclear industry are not confined to the wisdom or otherwise of building new plants. Many Swiss are extremely concerned about the safety of the existing, ageing ones.
Jurg Bueri, of the Swiss Energy Foundation, which promotes renewable energy, believes Switzerland's nuclear plants could be, in the event of an earthquake, a huge risk.
"We have been saying for years that the situation in relation to earthquakes is simply not OK," he said.
And indeed a study known as the Pegasos project, carried out by the Swiss nuclear safety inspectors long before Japan's earthquake and tsunami, revealed that, when it came to earthquake protection, Swiss plants were not up to scratch.
"In the past, it's a fact, we underestimated the risk of earthquakes," Georg Schwarz, deputy director of the Swiss Federal Nuclear Safety Inspectorate, told Swiss television.
"The new study we carried out shows that the earthquake risk in Switzerland is actually twice as big as we originally thought - that means our nuclear power stations will have to re-examine their earthquake protection measures."
Basel disaster
Switzerland, while not in a zone as earthquake-prone as Japan, does have its fair share of seismological events.
Although most recent ones have been relatively minor, the city of Basel experienced a huge quake in 1356. The resulting destruction and subsequent fire razed the old city to the ground, and hundreds of people died. Every castle and church within a 30km radius of Basel was flattened.
Modern seismologists say that earthquake still ranks as the most significant ever to hit central Europe in recorded history: 6.5, possibly even 7, on the Richter scale.
The fault line along which it occurred is, of course, still there, and, more recently, plans for a geothermal heating plant in Basel had to be abandoned because the bore holes being drilled for it triggered off a series of tremors.
That is why safety experts are unclear that Switzerland's nuclear power stations could withstand an event like the Basel quake of 1356.
"Earthquakes are the biggest threat to nuclear power stations in Switzerland," admitted Ralph Schulz, head of safety analysis at the Nuclear Inspectorate.
"The Pegasos study did show the earthquake risks were higher than originally thought."
Nevertheless, Mr Schulz still maintains Switzerland's nuclear power plants are safe.
"We were making improvements before and after Pegasos... to improve our emergency systems, and we have made numerous improvements specific to earthquakes."
Safety delays
But new safety measures are hugely expensive: the Beznau 1 plant has spent more than 1bn Swiss francs ($1bn) on supplementary diesel generators, which would, in the event of an earthquake, cool down the fuel rods in an attempt to prevent a meltdown.
And these remedies will take years to complete, time during which opponents of nuclear power claim that Switzerland's ageing reactors would be operating below optimum safety levels.
Jurg Bueri, of the Swiss Energy Foundation, believes the money now being spent on safety measures would be better invested phasing out nuclear power.
"We need a policy that gets rid of this technology," he said. "We need to shut these old plants down and make a much stronger commitment to renewable energy."
Power dilemma
Many believe Swiss energy minister Doris Leuthard's decision to suspend all plans for new nuclear power stations was an astute bit of crisis management, in order to give her government time to develop a new policy.
Just three weeks before the Japanese earthquake, voters in the Swiss capital Berne approved - by the narrowest of margins - a new nuclear power station.

Two more referenda on new reactors in other parts of Switzerland were due soon, and Mrs Leuthard knew that after Fukushima, there was no chance of voter approval.
By suspending the plans for new reactors, she has delayed the votes by several years.
That gives her time to answer some very hard questions; investing in new safety measures for old reactors will be costly, and will likely put the price of power up - but the same is true for investing in and developing renewable energy sources.
But shutting down the reactors and losing 40% of Switzerland's energy is not a viable solution, the Swiss economy, and indeed Swiss consumers, despite their doubts about nuclear power, just would not accept it.
It is a dilemma that is facing nearly every country in Europe, as governments assess options in the wake of the Japanese disaster. What all of them know is that, after Fukushima, it will be very difficult to gain public acceptance for new nuclear power stations. | The nuclear catastrophe in Japan has triggered a debate across Europe about just how safe nuclear power is. |
Give a brief overview of this passage. | Just over 24 hours after Britain's worst football stadium tragedy, Monsignor Vincent Malone surveyed Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral with a growing anxiety.
A requiem Mass had been hastily arranged in the aftermath of the disaster at the Liverpool v Nottingham Forest FA Cup semi-final in Sheffield, which would eventually cost the lives of 96 people.
"People were heading to the cathedral like ants," recalled parishioner Rita Pinto.
Press photographer Tom Murphy added: "People who claimed not to believe in God or faith just came to the cathedral because there was nowhere else to go."
As a priest, Monsignor Malone might be expected to be glad to see so many turning to the church in their hour of need but there was one snag - the cathedral looked to be reaching its 3,000 capacity nearly 90 minutes before the Mass was due to start at 18:00.
"People started arriving around 4:30 and it soon became pretty clear we seemed to be getting over-full," he recalled.
"This was the worst possible situation," he added.
He decided to close the cathedral immediately and conduct a simultaneous service on the piazza at the building's rear.
Consulting with the police he had an urgent request - for a megaphone.
So as fans, councillors and Liverpool first team members gathered inside for the start of a service, Monsignor Malone was walking to the rear of his cathedral where more than 6,000 people had massed.
In a freezing wind on a piazza, where in joyful times Pope John Paul II had gone on walkabout in 1982, the people had waited for the service as the Salvation Army band played.
"What sticks in my mind most is, as I walked round to the piazza, I could hear waves of applause and wondered if the Salvation Army Band were still playing like they had been for most of the afternoon," he said.
"When I got there I was very moved to see that the people were applauding as individuals placed their football scarves on the outdoor Altar.
"It was a very unusual experience, I thought my megaphone would be one where I held a talk piece to my mouth but instead I had to speak into the trumpet directly.
"I wish I had had the foresight to get a copy of Archbishop Derek Worlock's sermon - I could have read it out. The cathedral seemed to be the only place outside of Anfield where people could come together that day to express their corporate grief."
Electrician Tony Zeverona had initially been outside the cathedral with a friend who was begging to be let inside because he had lost a relative.
"The man on the door agreed and asked did I want to go with him and I said 'yes' - to be honest it was a bit of a blur," said Mr Zeverona, who had been in the stands at Hillsborough the day before.
Earlier he had visited an injured friend in a hospital in Sheffield before going to the Anfield stadium where fans were laying tributes.
"I got home and my wife told me about the cathedral service - I had to go. I think it helped a lot of people. The people of Liverpool really came together."
For Liverpool players, the Mass was the first of many services they would attend as the club arranged for at least one player to attend each victim's funeral.
Midfielder Ronnie Whelan said: "I attended the Catholic cathedral service but my memory is a bit hazy. I have stronger memories of the service at the Anglican cathedral [the following week].
"It was so sombre. Very, very emotional - especially when You'll Never Walk Alone was sung," he said. "It was very, very difficult - although much more difficult for the families.
"I attended two funerals. You feel a little bit guilty. What can you do? The families seemed to appreciate it though."
In the blue half of the city, some Everton fans felt awkward in the tragedy's aftermath.
"We were caught between not wanting to intrude almost - and perhaps be seen as a bit phoney or insincere - and not wanting to appear unconcerned," said Evertonian Greg Murphy.
"I often say that the city as a whole didn't know how to react until late on the Sunday.
"The cathedral service was a great catalyst for focusing everyone's attention, because by that stage people knew how big a disaster it had been and were coming to understand that this was a global news story and so the cathedral event served to validate people's grief.
"I recall people saying 'I don't know why I feel so bad, I don't even like football, I don't know anyone who was there, I didn't even know where Hillsborough was until yesterday - but I feel dreadful'.
"The cathedral event pulled all that together - for everyone." | One day after the Hillsborough disaster - as the people of Liverpool struggled to comprehend the enormity of the tragedy - a remarkable service attended by 9,000 people took place at the city's Roman Catholic cathedral. |

A gala opening is due to take place later this month.
College principal Hilary Boulding said: "Offering world class facilities in such a stunning location will allow us to continue to attract leading international arts practitioners to work here, and to increase national and international recognition for Cardiff as a home of world class artistic training.
"They will also significantly enhance opportunities for audiences in the city and region of Cardiff, and for the many professional and community groups that contribute to Cardiff's vibrant cultural life."

Celebrated former students include actors and entertainers including Sir Anthony Hopkins, Rob Brydon and Ruth Jones.
The construction firm behind the project, Willmott Dixon, has now completed the work and handed it over to the college.
"These high-profile facilities will attract attention from across the world so it was important for the college that the development was striking, effective and able to provide the perfect acoustic environment for the many performances that it presents annually," said Neal Stephens, managing director of Willmott Dixon.
"It will not only attract students from across the world but will be a popular visitor destination, further enhancing Cardiff's offering."

The Ferrari is uncompetitive in the dry, but Alonso built a lead when the race resumed on a wet track after an early stoppage following heavy rain.
It was a remarkable result after Ferrari's struggles at the start of the season - and it was matched by Perez's performance
Perez caught him in the closing stages but ran wide and settled for second.
McLaren's Lewis Hamilton took third ahead of Red Bull's Mark Webber and Lotus driver Kimi Raikkonen.
Alonso built a seven-second lead after the race resumed following a stoppage after just six laps caused by a torrential downpour.
But, as the track dried, Perez closed the Spaniard's lead to virtually nothing.
Alonso gained some respite when he switched to dry-weather slick tyres a lap before Perez, which took his lead back up to seven seconds.
After fitting the 'hard' tyres while Alonso chose the 'medium', Perez closed the gap to nothing in 10 laps and was on Alonso's tail at the start of lap 50, with seven to go.
But no sooner had Perez caught the Ferrari than he made a mistake.
He got on to the kerb at Turn 14 and ran wide, and suddenly Alonso's lead was back up to five seconds.
Although Perez closed in again, Alonso now had enough of a cushion to take a 28th career victory - behind only Michael Schumacher, Alain Prost, Ayrton Senna and Nigel Mansell in the all-time list.
Alonso, who is now leading the world championship by five points from Hamilton, said the victory was "a big surprise".
"We were not competitive in Australia or here," he added. "Our goal was to score as many points as possible and we did the job.

"It is an unbelievable result, a great job from the team. We maximised the potential in our hands, keeping calm in some strange conditions at the beginning with inters and the switching to dry tyres.
"The team deserve this win. It's a tough time for us at the moment, but this is a Sunday we will remember."
Perez said he felt he had missed an opportunity to win.
"I was catching Fernando towards end of the race," he said.
"I knew I had to get him soon because in all the high-speed corners I was losing my front tyres running behind him.
"Then I ran wide in the quick left-hander. I touched the kerb and I went onto the dirty side of the track. It was completely wet and I lost the win."
It was a remarkable result considering Ferrari's struggles with their car - and it was matched by Perez's performance.
The race started on a damp track after a shower of rain, with most drivers on the 'intermediate' tyres with relatively light treads.
But heavy rain started on lap two, and Perez immediately dived into the pits to fit full wet tyres.
It worked to the Mexican's favour. As the leading drivers pitted for wet tyres on laps four and five, he moved up the field and was lying third behind the two McLarens of Hamilton and Button when the race was stopped on lap six - when Alonso was fifth behind Webber.
But the decisive part of the race came after the re-start, as Alonso emerged in second place after all the drivers had stopped to fit intermediate tyres and immediately passed Perez for the lead on lap 16.
He pulled away in relentless fashion, the fastest car on the track for several laps, building what turned out to be a decisive lead of 7.7 seconds on lap 30, before Perez began to come back at him.
Alonso's experience told in the end, but both men celebrated one of the most remarkable and unexpected results in recent F1 history.
Third-placed Lewis Hamilton said: "I think we can be satisfied. First of all congratulations to Fernando and Sergio, they both drove fantastically well and it was very difficult to catch them.

Summarize the provided information. | The firm has asked the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) if it can begin flight testing drones for home delivery, pick-up and warehouse tasks.
Walmart is the world's largest retailer by revenue and follows in the steps of Amazon, which is already testing drones for this purpose.
It has emerged that Walmart is already testing drones indoors.
A range of potential tasks for the drones to carry out could be evaluated.
These include dropping off products in Walmart car parks for customers to collect, and for inspecting digital tags on trucks at Walmart warehouses in order to check what they contain.
Direct deliveries to customers' homes could be trialled once the permission of residents in the flight path had been granted, the company said.
But Walmart's application suggests it might dispatch those drones from trucks in the area, and not directly from distribution centres.
Should the FAA grant permission, Walmart plans to use drones made by Chinese firm DJI.
Earlier in the year, Amazon received permission to begin testing its drones outdoors, although it must obey rules such as keeping the vehicles below 400 ft and only operating them via a human pilot.
Various other firms have started investigating the possibilities of drone delivery, including huge Chinese retailer Alibaba, courier DHL and the Singapore Post.
"Drones have a lot of potential to further connect our vast network of stores, distribution centres, fulfilment centres and transportation fleet," said Walmart spokesman Dan Toporek in a statement.
"There is a Walmart within five miles of 70 % of the US population, which creates some unique and interesting possibilities for serving customers with drones."
The move suggested thickening competition between the world's biggest retailers, according to Andrew Milroy, an analyst at Frost & Sullivan.
"This shows that Walmart is competing head-to-head with Amazon as it seeks ways of making its supply chains more efficient and ways of improving customer service," he said.
Retailers' moves into the area of drone delivery are to be taken seriously, suggested legal expert Luke Scanlon of law firm Pinsent Masons.
"Retailers are definitely seeing a future application," he told the BBC. | Retail giant Walmart, which owns Asda in the UK, has applied for permission to test delivery drones in the US. |
Summarize the information in the following document. | He told those gathered for the signing ceremony in the capital, Juba, that he had "reservations" about how the mediation was conducted and some of the clauses in the compromise deal.
Rebel leader Riek Machar signed the deal last week but Mr Kiir refused.
It is meant to end months of brutal civil war and will see Mr Machar return as vice-president.
Fighting between forces loyal to the two men over the last 20 months has forced more than 2.2 million people from their homes in the world's youngest state, which broke away from Sudan in 2011.
The United States welcomed the agreement but said that it did not "recognise any reservations" that President Kiir had highlighted at the signing ceremony.
In a statement, the US National Security Advisor Susan Rice said that reaching a lasting peace would "require commitment and resolve from all parties to the conflict".
BBC Africa Live: News updates
The leaders of Kenya, Uganda and Ethiopia, who all helped mediate the negotiations, witnessed the signing.
One of the two generals who defected earlier this month from the rebel side has condemned the peace deal, saying it is "not for the whole of South Sudan".
"If they don't listen to us, they'll listen to the bullets," General Gathoth Gatkuoth told the BBC, referring to both the government and the rebels.
As time passed and the temperature rose in the big, celebratory tent, the buzz of optimism started to wane.
Last-minute talks had been going on for hours - surely President Salva Kiir wouldn't leave regional heads of state at the altar for the second time in 10 days?
The talking had been tough - the language of the leaders was strong.
When Kenya's President Kenyatta said there was "no such thing as a perfect agreement", it was clear it had been a tough day around a table.
People shouldn't see "obstacles, but opportunity and hope," he added.
Uganda's Yoweri Museveni called South Sudan's struggle for independence a just war, but that this was "the wrong war in the wrong place at the wrong time".
And then in a long, slow speech, pausing regularly to remove his glasses and wipe his face, it wasn't quite clear if President Kiir was going to sign the deal or not.
In the end he did, but any moment of statesmanship was lost in a piece of theatre.
He finally said he would sign only if the heads of state initialled a long list of reservations - which he then proceeded to do while photocopies of the list were handed out to the audience.
The regional leaders declined, but the signing went ahead. With renegade generals not signing up to the deal and much picking still to be done over the detail, there's little here that would make the 1.6 million displaced people in South Sudan rush home.
Will South Sudan peace deal be worth the wait?
Before signing the deal, President Kiir spent hours in a closed-door meeting with the regional leaders.
Afterwards, he addressed the delegates, speaking at length of his unease about the deal and saying he wanted these reservations to be on record.
During his speech, South Sudan's president mentioned areas such as the ambiguous structure and command of the South Sudan forces once the transitional government takes office in 90 days.
He also had issues about the power-sharing arrangements.
Fresh fighting that has erupted in the oil-rich town of Bentiu was a clear indication that rebels did not respect the deal they had so recently signed, he added.

Five obstacles to lasting peace
At least seven ceasefires have been agreed and then shattered - sometimes within hours.
Fighting broke out in December 2013 after President Kiir accused his sacked deputy Mr Machar of plotting a coup.

Earlier in a Security Council briefing, the UN's humanitarian chief Stephen O'Brien warned that conditions in South Sudan were deteriorating, saying he had heard multiple accounts of atrocities, including people being burned in their homes.

The TES website is running a digital marketplace for teachers to sell their lesson ideas to other teachers.
It is the latest example of teachers producing their own bespoke classroom materials and sharing them online.
Earlier this year, a school in Cambridge published its own set of GCSE textbooks on Apple's iBooks.
The website of TES Global - formerly The Times Educational Supplement - is offering teachers a digital platform to make money out of their lesson plans and teaching materials.
The idea of teachers sharing ideas and materials for lessons online has expanded rapidly, with up to a million downloads per day of free material through the TES website.
But there is a move to commercialise this, with teachers able to put a price tag on their lesson ideas.
There are about 3,000 teaching materials on sale so far, such as material for primary science and poetry for £1 and resources on food technology and physics for £2. These are accompanied by teachers' reviews and ratings.
There is already an established commercial market in the US, with websites turning a handful of teachers into millionaires with particularly popular downloads.
Head teachers' leader Brian Lightman said it reflected the "pace of change" when online information can be shared so quickly and when teachers were under pressure to be "agile" in providing up-to-date materials.
But he cautioned: "Teachers need to be careful before they sell resources, if they're employed in a school there is a question about intellectual property and schools need to have a clear protocol."
Mr Lightman, general secretary of the ASCL head teachers' union, sees this trading in lessons as part of a wider trend for teachers to take charge of their professional lives and produce the materials that they need.
The Stephen Perse Foundation, an independent school in Cambridge, has pioneered the production of its own digital textbooks, which are available free for any other schools to download online.
Rob Grimshaw, chief operating officer of TES Global, described the marketplace as an "important milestone" for online school resources. | The European Commission has stepped up pressure on Google, alleging that it abused its dominance in internet shopping and restricted competition.

What is the summary of the following article? | Adam Maybury, 28, led the business, which pretended to sell the supplements online but sent drugs through the post.
Maybury, from Staffordshire, worked with his mother, sister, cousin and best friend, on an operation that earned average monthly payments of £45,000 at its peak.
All five were sentenced at Birmingham Crown Court on Thursday.
The National Crime Agency (NCA) said the synthetic drugs were imported from Holland and then distributed around the world, including Japan, New Zealand and Brazil.
Marshall was responsible for dispatching the packages from Spain until he fell out with Maybury over money. Russell then took over Marshall's role.
Maybury's mother leased offices in Burntwood and opened and managed accounts, card processing facilities and companies to help import and supply drugs.
She sent a text to her son at one point saying: "I am getting a bit worried about all your dodgy dealings Adam just be careful x", the agency said.

Write a summary of this document. | Vadym Iermolovych, 28, admitted to hacking into newswire agencies and using the unpublished information to gain advantage on the stock market.
Thirty-two people have been charged in connection with the global scheme.
Prosecutors said the defendants used 800 stolen news releases to make trades using the insider information.
From 2010 to 2014 the group is accused of hacking the computer networks of Marketwired LP, PR Newswire Association LLC, and Business Wire. They are thought to have gained access to 150,000 press releases that were about to be released.
Iermolovych, and other Ukrainian citizens thought to have participated in the hacking, would rapidly pass the stolen information to stock market traders in the US. They would then trade on the unpublished information before that day's market closing.
According to the Department of Justice, the trades would occur in "extremely short windows of time between when the hackers illegally accessed and shared the releases and when the press releases were disseminated to the public by the newswires, usually shortly after the close of the markets".
Iermolovych will be sentenced in August and could face up to 20 years in jail. | A Ukrainian man has pleaded guilty to his role in an insider trading scheme that netted more than $30 million (£20.8 million) in illicit profits. |
What is the summary of the document provided? | But bad weather is hampering efforts to reach the Russian Akademic Shokalskiy, says the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA).
Earlier rescue attempts by Chinese and French icebreakers were foiled by the thick ice.
Seventy-four scientists, tourists and crew are on the Shokalskiy.
The vessel is being used by the Australasian Antarctic Expedition to follow the route explorer Douglas Mawson travelled a century ago.
The Shokalskiy remains well stocked with food and is in no danger, according to the team.
Despite being trapped, the scientists have continued their experiments, measuring temperature and salinity through cracks in the surrounding ice.
AMSA which is coordinating the rescue, said the Aurora Australis was having trouble reaching the Shokalskiy because of "poor visibility".
"The Aurora Australis is travelling slowly due to the conditions to ensure the safety of all on board," the agency said in a statement on Sunday night.
Expedition member Chris Turney earlier posted a video message online saying winds had picked up and it was snowing again.
The powerful Australian icebreaker can cut ice up to 1.6m (5.2ft) thick, but it is uncertain whether it will be able to plough through the estimated 3m wall surrounding the Shokalskiy.
If this latest relief operation fails, passengers could be winched to safety by a helicopter on board the Chinese icebreaker, which had to abort its rescue mission on Saturday.
The Snow Dragon came within seven nautical miles (11 km) of the Russian ship before stalling and being forced to return to the open sea.
The BBC's Andrew Luck-Baker, who is part of the expedition, said the helicopter flew around the Shokalskiy on Sunday to see if the Snow Dragon could launch another attempt to break through the ice.
A change in wind direction and slightly warmer temperatures had caused the ice to crack and form pools of water.
But our correspondent warned that Antarctica's extremely unstable weather made predictions very difficult.
The Shokalskiy was trapped on Christmas Day by thick sheets of ice, driven by strong winds, about 1,500 nautical miles south of Hobart - the capital of the Australian state of Tasmania.
Science volunteer Sean Borkovic earlier told the BBC: "I'll always remember this, that's for sure. It's brilliant. We've got some lovely light and the weather's pretty mild considering. The ship looks solid. I think we'll be good."
A visit from Secret Santa and a sumptuous Christmas dinner contributed to the mood of optimism.
The goal of the modern-day Australasian Antarctic Expedition is to repeat many of the original measurements and studies of the Mawson expedition to see how facets of the environment have changed over the past century. | An Australian vessel has arrived in East Antarctica in a renewed bid to free a scientific mission ship trapped in dense pack ice since Tuesday. |
Write a concise summary of the provided excerpt. | Alex Salmond insisted that a "few more ageing Tornado sorties will have no military consequences whatsoever" in the war-torn country.
Mr Salmond spoke ahead of the SNP conference unanimously backing a motion opposing "UK participation in ongoing military action in Syria".
It also condemned any air strikes as being "militarily irrelevant".
Instead, the SNP called for "renewed diplomacy to resolve the conflict", saying only those initiatives backed by the United Nations would have the "international consensus required" to end the civil war and the resulting humanitarian crisis, which has seen millions of Syrians flee their country.
Mr Salmond, the SNP foreign affairs spokesman at Westminster, said: "There is nobody in Syria who is not being bombed by somebody. That's why there are six-and-a-half million people displaced."
He added: "What should our reaction be to this carnage in this country? We need to be the voice of clarity, of sanity and of humanity.
"We have to have the clarity to put forward the vision that adding a few more ageing Tornado sorties will have no military consequences whatsoever but it will add to human suffering.
"We have to have the clarity to say we have a Prime Minister who is still smarting from being turned over in military action two years ago when he wanted to target Assad and is itching to reverse a Commons vote on military action."
And to cheers from the conference floor, Mr Salmond said: "There should be no more futile military interventions by the UK.
"No more Afghanistans with no exit strategies, no more Libyas where we spent 13 times as much bombing as we did reconstructing that country and no more illegal wars such as the one in Iraq.
"Above all, the path we should tread is that of humanity."

The move comes after several Hollywood figures boycotted this year's Oscars.
Academy president Cheryl Boone Isaacs said the board now had "much more of a diversity to it".
Spike Lee and Jada Pinkett-Smith were among those who objected to there being no non-white nominees in the acting categories and the row saw the hashtag #OscarsSoWhite trending for several days after the nominations were announced.
The Academy has also appointed six new committee members, which include Mexican actor Gael Garcia Bernal and African-American producers Effie Brown and Stephanie Allain.
Boone Isaacs said: "We set out, even a few years ago, to have more inclusion and certainly have stepped it up.
"We just want to keep this process going, and so were really happy that were able to announce these additions."
Other changes announced include limiting Oscar voting rights to those active in the movie business.
The Academy also apologised after criticism from some Asian academy members who were offended by a skit during the Oscars show in February.
Activists accused host Chris Rock of perpetuating racial stereotypes when he introduced a group of accountants, who turned out to be three Asian children in suits. One of the children was also given a Jewish surname.
Rock then said: "If anybody is upset about that joke, just tweet about it on your phone, which was also made by these kids."
Boone Isaacs said she was "very sorry" people had been offended, adding: "I can understand the feelings and we are setting up a meeting to discuss, because as you well know, no one sets out to be offensive.

Two men - Andrew Thompson, 37, and 53-year-old John MacKinnon - died when the plane came down near the village of Abernyte on Sunday.
It had left Inverness airport and had been due at Dundee airport but lost contact about four miles away.
Police Scotland confirmed that the wreckage had been lifted by helicopter.
It will be taken to Farnborough in Hampshire by lorry for further examination by experts from the Air Accidents Investigation Branch.
Police Scotland's local area commander Ch Insp Mike Whitford said: "Firstly, I would like to express my sympathies on behalf of all the officers involved. We must remember that this is a particularly difficult time for the families of the two men.
"Police Scotland has been working closely with AAIB personnel on-site, in particularly challenging conditions, since the crash on Sunday afternoon, ensuring that there is a full investigation into the circumstances."

Can you summarize this content? | This year marks the 40th year since TJ's was opened by former merchant seaman John Sicolo, who died last year.
Under his helm, more than 5,000 bands, including some of the greatest names in music started off or played there.
Former Catatonia singer Cerys Matthews, who also performed there, narrates how the venue was a cultural "bridge between Wales and the world".
Matthews, who played there when Catatonia was just starting out and played there again when the band had made it big, said: "People from Wales could embrace the world through TJ's but similarly, TJ's attracted artists from all over the world to Wales."
TJ's was started by John Sicolo in 1971, first christening it El Sieco's before renaming it TJ's Disco.
It soon developed a reputation as a place for up-and-coming bands to make a name for themselves after it was championed by BBC DJ John Peel.
Its roll call of bands include Oasis, Ash and the Manic Street Preachers, the Stone Roses as well as more homegrown talent Darling Buds and the Newport rap collective Goldie Lookin' Chain.
Nirvana front man Kurt Cobain is said to proposed to his wife Courtney Love when she was performing there with her band, Hole.
And such the cosmopolitan nature of the club that it led to the New York Times describing the city as the "Seattle of the UK".
Poet Patrick Jones, brother of the Manic Street Preachers' Nicky Wire, describes how TJ's shone like a bright light to Welsh valleys teenagers who wanted to escape the "straight-jacket masculinity" of rugby clubs and the commercial disco scene.
Eggsy from Goldie Lookin Chain started going to TJ's as a young teenager.
He said the club was a huge creative melting pot in the days before the internet, with an influence far beyond music, inspiring people who also went into photography, fashion, painting and poetry.
The programme is produced by Sarah Dickins, who had been working with Sicolo for six months on how the programme would be testament to the bands who played there.
She said: "We met several times and talked about what he did and what he hoped to do."
Tragically, Sicolo, aged 66, died the day after her idea was commissioned by BBC Wales, so the programme turned into a tribute to the man as well as his venue.
She said: "What has come out about John is two things.
"One was that he would give anyone a chance, even people who hadn't been on stage before.
"The Darling Buds, who became quite big in the 90s, they actually only knew four songs when John let them play TJ's, and they went on from that to real success and ended up playing the [Cardiff] arms park.
"The other thing was tolerance. It was a place that was tolerant of all styles of music, all age groups."
"The programme isn't just about the music, it's about what made him the man he was - what was special about the man what was special about TJ's."

The site at Denny Inclosure, east of Lyndhurst, is a protected monument.
Researchers are trying to find out if it was one of a number of foresters' lodges converted in the 14th century for King Edward III's hunting trips.

National park archaeologist Frank Green said the last excavation of a similar site was 100 years ago.
He said: "Modern scientific dating techniques and the ability to recover information about the site's use can now provide us with a much better understanding, and the potential for more accurate dating, of the site.
"We hope this will lead to similar work on other lodge sites as part of a much larger project that will expand our knowledge of potential royal hunting sites from the medieval period."

The H5N8 strain has been confirmed among 10,000 breeding pheasants at Hy-Fly Game Hatcheries Limited in Preesall.
A number of the birds have died and the remaining are set to be culled.
Raymond Holden said he had been breeding birds for 54 years and is worried the outbreak "could wipe everything out".
"It would mean we would have no revenue all this year," he said.
"Some of our breeding stock are virtually priceless - we're the only people in the country with them."
The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) has introduced a 1.8 mile (3km) protection zone and 6 mile (10km) surveillance zone around the infected area to limit the risk of the disease spreading.
Mr Holden said Defra representatives were due to visit the farm later after the UK's Chief Veterinary Officer confirmed the outbreak on Tuesday.
Public Health England (PHE) said the risk to humans was "very low". The Food Standards Agency has said bird flu does not pose a food safety risk for UK consumers.
There have been a number of outbreaks of the virus, including one at a farm in Louth, Lincolnshire in December.
Earlier that month, poultry keepers were told to keep their birds inside for 30 days to protect them from a highly-infectious strain of avian flu in Europe.
The H5N8 bird flu strain has been found in poultry and wild birds in 14 countries, including Germany and France.
Mr Maduro's accusation that Mr Uribe had plotted to assassinate him had put the Colombian's life at risk, his lawyer said.
Mr Uribe's lawyer said he also wanted a libel investigation in Colombia.
Mr Maduro also implied Mr Uribe could have been involved in the killing of a Venezuelan journalist.
The Venezuelan leader said on Friday he had evidence that right-wing Venezuelan politicians were involved in a plot masterminded by Mr Uribe.
But Mr Uribe - a fierce critic of the late President Hugo Chavez - dismissed Mr Maduro's accusation as "immature".
On Sunday, Mr Uribe's lawyer issued a statement saying the former president's "life and bodily integrity" had been put at risk.
"In the next few hours I will appeal to the Inter-American Commission of Human Rights to ask for precautionary measures in favour of the former President Alvaro Uribe every time Mr Maduro's actions put his life and bodily integrity at risk," wrote the lawyer, Jaime Granados Pena.
He said he would also ask Colombia's Attorney General's office for a special petition to investigate Mr Maduro for libel if he enters the country.
The statement also said the accusations were the acts of "a desperate person who holds power illegitimately" and wanted to "divert the attention from the corruption and illegality sponsored by the dictatorship he runs."
For its part, the Venezuelan government also accused an American national, Timothy Tracy, of funding opposition protests to "destabilise the country with the goal of starting a civil war".
US President Barack Obama dismissed the accusations as "ridiculous", while Mr Maduro hit back calling him the "grand chief of devils".
Since taking over from the late President Hugo Chavez as acting president and even after winning disputed elections last month, Mr Maduro denounced a string of alleged conspiracies in Venezuela.
Mr Maduro won the 14 April poll by a narrow margin of 1.49%, according to the official results.
Venezuelan opposition leader Henrique Capriles is challenging the result, alleging irregularities.
During his term in office, Alvaro Uribe clashed with Hugo Chavez on a number of issues.

Keith Millen also joins Holloway at Selhurst Park as assistant manager.
It suits him to be nearer his family and I am sure he will enjoy the new challenge he has set himself
"It is sad to leave Blackpool as my time there was the best trip I have been on and leave very proud of what was achieved and I would like to wish them all the best," added Holloway, who has also managed Bristol Rovers, Queens Park Rangers, Plymouth and Leicester.
"I just see this as too good an opportunity to turn down.
"I am bringing in Keith as my assistant who is a Croydon boy and he is as excited as I am about the opportunity."
Holloway's former Blackpool assistant Steve Thompson will be in temporary charge for the Seasiders' game with Derby County on Saturday.
Bristol-born Holloway leaves Blackpool after over three years in charge, winning promotion to the Premier League via the play-offs in May 2010 although they were relegated the following season.
And Blackpool chairman Karl Oyston holds no resentment towards Holloway regarding the decision to leave.
"I wish Ian all the best in his new role," Oyston told BBC Radio Lancashire.
"He has done a fantastic job for us during his time here and will be remembered as the most successful manager in the club's history.
"Things happen in football very quickly, as in this case, so I am not shocked by his decision. It suits him to be nearer his family and I am sure he will enjoy the new challenge he has set himself.
"There is no animosity, he goes with my best wishes having served our club so well and the success he brought to the club during his three years here.
"Steve Thompson will take charge of the team at Derby this afternoon. I will then be making an appointment as soon as possible."
Palace chairman Steve Parish had revealed the club had made an approach for Holloway on Thursday.
Holloway took training as normal at Blackpool on Friday morning, but did not join the team on their journey to Derby, although he often travelled separately to away fixtures.
His departure comes only six months after guiding Blackpool to the Championship play-off final against West Ham, where his side lost 2-1.
Holloway will now hope for similar success at Palace, who have not been in the top flight since a one-year stay in 2004-05, and lost their first three league matches of the current campaign.
Six wins out of seven then lifted them into fourth place in the Championship before Freedman's departure.

Summarize the information in the following section. | A jury at Chelmsford Crown Court convicted the 16-year-old, who cannot be named for legal reasons, of the manslaughter of Arkadiusz Jozwik.
Mr Jozwik, 40, was attacked in Harlow, Essex, on 27 August 2016. He died in hospital two days later.
Rosina Cottage, prosecuting, said the defendant had moved behind Mr Jozwik and used the "whole force of his body" to hit him.
Mr Jozwik hit his head on the ground after being struck by the single punch from the boy.
The defendant, who was in The Stow shopping precinct after going to a kebab shop, said he hit Mr Jozwik "to defend my friend".
He said two Polish men, who appeared drunk, were saying "fight me, fight me" and he felt "scared".
Ms Cottage said: "If you didn't like it, you could have scarpered, couldn't you?"
The defendant replied: "Yeah."
Earlier in the trial the court heard Mr Jozwik, from Poland, had been drinking vodka with two friends and had just bought a pizza when he was set upon shortly after 23:30 BST.
Ms Cottage had told the court the men had sat near a group of teenagers.
She said two boys cycled close to the men, which "seemed to spark a disagreement".
The teenager will be sentenced at the same court on 8 September and was granted bail due to a family illness.
The 23-year-old has not been seen since a night out in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, on 24 September.
Defence Minister Mike Penning said "every available military kit, personnel and surveillance equipment" was on offer to police.
"They have requested it on several occasions," he said.
Mr Mckeague, from Dunfermline in Fife, was last seen walking alone in Bury St Edmunds at about 03:25 BST.
He walked into a dead-end area known as the "horseshoe" and was not seen again.
The mystery of missing Corrie Mckeague
Dan Jarvis, Labour MP for Barnsley Central, raised Mr Mckeague's disappearance during questions in Parliament to the Defence Secretary Michael Fallon and his ministerial team.
Mr Penning replied: "I think the whole house would want to pledge their thoughts with Corrie's family and his love ones and the servicemen alongside him, for the RAF regiment which I had the honour of meeting at RAF Honington just after he went missing."
"We all want him to come home safely. I am sure the MOD will do everything we possibly can."
Mr Mckeague's family have raised £50,000 to pay for an intelligence services company to get involved in the search.
His uncle, Tony Wringe, said McKenzie Intelligence Services had uncovered details which challenged "previously-held assumptions" about his nephew's disappearance.
"We now have new areas where we realise we do or do not know something relevant," he said on Facebook.
The team established the serviceman did meet up with RAF friends in Bury St Edmunds on the night he disappeared and went into bars with them, and went into Flex nightclub with at least one of his friends.
Telephone data has also been found to be "not entirely accurate", Mr Wringe said, and a "collection" plan - gathering further raw information and items of forensic interest - has now been formed.
"This is what I can share, there is more I cannot," he wrote on the Find Corrie Facebook page. | A teenage boy has been found guilty of killing a man with a "superman punch".

What is a brief summary of the information below? | A test of how big that gap is comes on Sunday in the shape of a Scottish Cup semi-final against a side presently leading the league above.
It will be the first time Warburton and many of his players have faced Celtic.
"This game on Sunday is important, but our job between now and 6 August is to work hard to try to close that gap," said Warburton.
"A gap clearly exists. It would be foolish to say otherwise.
"They're top of the Premiership, they're champions, the European campaigns they've had of late and the financial impetus that's given them.
"We won't close it completely, but what we have to do over the summer is recruit well, build the environment again, keep moving forward and hopefully close the gap."
That is for another day though. More immediately, Warburton, whose side have won the Championship title and promotion, knows the supporters desperately want to buck their underdog tag on Sunday.
"Any neutral would say Celtic have to be favourites," he said. "Of course they are.
"But Rangers have been in good form this season.
"We've had a good level of consistency, the quality's been evident, individually.
"As a team, we've been strong and they deserve to be where they are.
"So we know what we can do. We're well prepared, we go into the game wanting to win, expecting to put in a good performance and we'll see where that takes us."
Warburton admits he and many of the players who have led the team to the Championship title are taking a step into the unknown, but he doesn't believe that's a drawback.
"Davie Weir has played in many of these games," he said of his assistant. "So has Kenny Miller, so there is lots of experience in the camp.
"But it's pointless saying I know what's coming. If you haven't played in the game, it would be foolhardy to say you know what will happen.
"However, these guys are pro footballers. This is what they do.
"If you are a bricklayer and get told to build a wall twice as big as normal, you get on with it and deal with it." | Rangers manager Mark Warburton acknowledges a gap exists between his team and Celtic's but aims to close it. |
Summarize the information in the following section. | Mr Mattis was briefing Nato allies on future strategy, amid reports the US will boost its military presence.
His comments were in direct contrast to Nato's secretary-general, who said the withdrawal should have happened sooner.
US troops reached 130,000 in 2011 but were drawn down, leaving the Afghan military in control at the end of 2014. There are now 13,500 Nato troops there.
Mr Mattis was speaking at a press conference after meeting Nato defence ministers in Brussels.
He said: "Looking back on it, it's pretty much a consensus that we may have pulled our troops out too rapidly, reduced the numbers a little too rapidly."
However, Nato Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg insisted it was right to end Nato's combat role in 2014, saying: "If anything, we should have done it before."
Diplomatic and US sources have suggested the number of US troops could increase by between 3,000 and 5,000 to try to counter a resurgent Taliban and the presence of an Afghan branch of so-called Islamic State.
Mr Mattis said: "I don't put timelines on war; war is a fundamentally unpredictable phenomenon.
"The bottom line is that Nato has made a commitment to Afghanistan for freedom from fear and terror, and freedom from terror demands that you can't let this be undone."
The conflict in Afghanistan has dragged on for 16 years, since the 9/11 attacks in the United States.
At the end of 2014, Nato assumed the Resolute Support mission, helping train the Afghan military while handing over frontline combat duties.
Mr Stoltenberg said there would be more Nato troops for Afghanistan but gave no precise figure and said they would not be in combat roles.
UK Defence Secretary Michael Fallon pledged 100 more troops on top of 500 already in Afghanistan.
"We're in it for the long haul," he said.
Afghanistan has been hit by numerous violent attacks in recent weeks, including a massive bomb attack in the capital, Kabul, that killed more than 150 people.

Sandown Bay Academy has been rated "inadequate" by Ofsted because of "ineffective leadership at all levels".
Inspectors said the school's sponsor, Academies Enterprise Trust (AET), also failed to deal effectively with a "debilitating cyber-attack".
Isle of Wight councillors voted in May to ask the government to oust AET "off the island altogether".
In April, the head teacher resigned and the trust replaced the board of governors.
Ofsted inspectors, who visited the following month, said pupils had been "let down in the quality of education they receive for too long".
The report said grades had fallen since 2015 and "too many pupils are persistently absent".
It said AET had not supported the school following the cyber-attack which resulted in a "widespread loss of important documents", including pupil progress reports, teaching plans and exam work.
Ofsted praised the behaviour of pupils and a unit for pupils with autism.
On 25 May, the day after inspectors left, AET announced plans to close the Sandown site as part of a previously-declared "merger" with Ryde Academy, 6 miles (10km) away.
Explaining its proposal, AET said income at Sandown Bay had dropped by £5m in five years.
A six-week consultation by AET on the merger plan runs until 6 July, while Isle of Wight Council is holding a separate consultation on rival plans to retain secondary education in Sandown.
In a statement, the trust said: "We acknowledge that AET has not succeeded in driving forward the educational improvements at Sandown Bay that we would all wish to see."
It said it had replaced the governors and head teacher with an "experienced" management board and "new leadership team". | US Defence Secretary James Mattis has said that the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan was done too rapidly.

Summarize the information in the following document. | One returning officer said he believed the current first and second preference system was too confusing.
Staffordshire PCC Matthew Ellis called for a "first past the post" system instead.
More than 28,000 papers were spoilt in the West Midlands vote alone.
This was just under five per cent of the entire vote.
In West Mercia more than 5,500 votes were rejected; more than 5,000 were spoilt in Gloucestershire; 4,000 in Staffordshire and over 3,000 in Warwickshire.
West Midlands Police area returning officer Mark Rogers said: "We saw very few papers that were deliberately spoilt, where people had gone out of their way to deface the ballot paper.
"More than half of the papers that were rejected was because there was no mark on the ballot paper at all.
"People do get confused because they've basically experienced first past the post with most other elections and this is different.
"I think it's just left people thinking 'I don't know what this piece of paper's for'."
Staffordshire PCC Matthew Ellis, who was re-elected for a second time, called for the system to change.
"My preference would be that we go for a traditional 'first past the post'; it's clear, it's tidy. A number of people vote for a candidate, that candidate gets in," he said.
"[The current system] might seem fairer but If we go through the rigmarole of having a massive proportion of people utterly confused then as far as I'm concerned it defeats the object."

Chairman of the UK George Formby Society, Caroline Stewart, said the film put him on the "road to stardom".
In it, Formby crashes his bike around the course, performing his own stunts.
The film, his third, is widely regarded as one of his funniest.
Formby plays George Shuttleworth, a chimney sweep from Wigan who dreams of winning the Isle of Man motorcycle races.
It was shot against the backdrop of the 1935 TT races in locations including Douglas beach and the Palace Ballrooms.
A star of the stage and screen, Formby did much to keep spirits high during World War Two.
The George Formby Society will attend a series of events over the weekend including a screening of the film at the Manx Museum on Saturday at 15:15 BST.
They will also perform a ukulele recital at his statue in Douglas on Sunday at 11:00.

A B-25 bomber, a P-51 Mustang fighter and The Blades aerobatic team were among the first displays to take place near Low Green in Ayr on Friday.
The Saturday programme includes displays from The Red Arrows and RAF Falcons Parachute Team.
An estimated crowd of 120,000 attended the main Saturday event in 2015, with similar numbers expected this year.
Event manager Doug Maclean said: "We're very enthusiastic about what we've planned for 2016 knowing we will continue to excite and wow the crowds with some of the most amazing aircraft, pilots and displays they will ever see.
"The acts we have coming along are truly world-class and the fact they all want to come and take part in our event shows that the airshow has continued to grow from strength-to-strength."
South Ayrshire Council is the main sponsor of the airshow, which returned in 2014 after an absence of 22 years.
The council's chief executive, Eileen Howat, said: "The Scottish International Airshow has grown in magnitude and 2016's line-up is undoubtedly set to be the best yet.
"Last year around 120,000 people enjoyed the air display and demand has led to the addition of another day of flying and entertainment on the Friday.
"Not only is this a great family event, but it gives the local economy a real boost, generating over £5m last year, which is something we all benefit from."
Although anyone can watch the displays for free, ticket packages can be purchased for access to the entertainment area at Low Green.
One of the packages offers limited access to Prestwick Airport for a chance to see the aircraft up close.

What is the summary of the following document? | The child was one of 75 referred from Wales due to their gender confusion - almost double the previous year.
Seven years ago there was just one Welsh referral through the NHS.
The figures are from the Tavistock clinic - the only centre offering gender identity treatment to young people in England and Wales - which have seen a sharp rise in recent years.
About 2,000 children and young people were referred there through the NHS last year - an increase of 42% on 2015/16. The increase in referrals from Wales was 79%.
Experts say Wales is "catching up" and the rise is because of increasing awareness of gender identity issues.
Jamie Pallas from Gendered Intelligence, which works with transgender children and young people, said: "In general, there has been a great increase in awareness, so if young people are talking to their parents and have questions generally, their parents may be more aware in what they can do to help them. People know they can approach their GPs and ask for referrals.
"There is also a lot of information available on the internet and I think that has helped young people. Also, we are seeing schools support young people."
Llyr is among those to have been referred to the Tavistock and Portman Trust. The 16-year-old from Aberystwyth started dressing as a girl last year and has just started testosterone blocker injections.
The teenager, whose parents own a farm, said: "I was so excited at my first injection for testosterone blockers. As soon as the injection when in there was a burst of emotion, it is such a relief and emotion that it is done."
But the Tavistock and Portman Trust stressed that most users did not start the medical pathway to transition.
Dr Polly Carmichael, gender identity development service director and consultant clinical psychologist, said: "There is no single explanation for the increase in referral figures, but we do know in recent years that there has been significant progress towards the acceptance and recognition of transgender and gender diverse people in our society.
"There is also greater knowledge about specialist gender clinics and the pathways into them, and an increased awareness of the possibilities around physical treatments for younger adolescents.
"The majority of our users do not take up physical treatment through our service, and any decisions around hormone treatment needs time and considered thought.
"The long-term health and psycho-social wellbeing of young people is always our priority."
Kate Hutchinson, director of Wipe Out Transphobia, said there was no visibility, "no-one to talk to", and no trans youth organisations when she was a teenager in the 1980s.
"There were no fewer trans young people than today, we just had no-one to turn to for help.
"The only thing I ever saw about trans people were tabloid sensationalist stories that pushed your feelings deeper down and made you feel hopeless.
"Young trans people these days do not need to suffer like that, they see positive changes in attitudes and support, they have hope that they can show their authentic selves.
"Quite simply because of these shifts, they have more confidence and have more awareness of where to turn than previous generations to seek help at a younger age, instead of struggling on."
He was just 15 when he joined the party and has also served as a member of the Scottish Youth Parliament.
He also contested the East Dunbartonshire constituency in last May's general election.
He gained his new role as an MSP after being top of the Green list for the West of Scotland region.
In a post on the Scottish Young Greens website, he said: "I had always been an environmentalist since a young age.
"As my interest in politics grew, I began to realise that only the Scottish Green Party offered the practical solutions that I wanted, combining social justice and equality with sustainability and practical solutions to tackling climate change."

Summarize this article briefly. | The incident began hours after comedian John Oliver criticised FCC plans to reverse US net neutrality rules.
Mr Oliver urged people to post to the site's online commenting system, protesting against the proposals.
The FCC said that issues with the site were caused by orchestrated attacks, not high volumes of traffic.
"These actors were not attempting to file comments themselves; rather they made it difficult for legitimate commenters to access and file with the FCC," chief information officer Dr David Bray said in an official statement.
"While the comment system remained up and running the entire time, these distributed denial of service (DDoS) events tied up the servers and prevented them from responding to people attempting to submit comments."
In his Sunday night show Last Week Tonight, Mr Oliver called on viewers to visit a website that would direct them to the correct page on the FCC site to leave their comments.
"Every internet group needs to come together… gamers, YouTube celebrities, Instagram models, Tom from MySpace if you're still alive. We need all of you," he said.

Write a summary for this information. | The one-tonne, £2,000 animal was lost for 48 hours in the storm drain on peatland near Ben Aketil Wind Farm on the Isle of Skye.
The bull vanished from the place it was kept last Friday before being found on Sunday.
Firefighters and local crofters took 20 minutes to free the animal, which was hungry but unharmed.
Fifteen people were involved in the operation with firefighters from Portree, Broadford and Dunvegan involved.
Broadford firefighter Martin Benson said: "The bull had been stuck for a considerable amount of time and had lost a lot of weight.
"We cut the peat bank as best we could around the bull which was about three feet below ground level - and stuck at either side when we arrived.
"Eventually we managed to carve out some room for the bull to wriggle itself free."
He added: "The first thing the animal did was shake itself down and go for something to eat.
"In such a remote, agricultural area these rescues are sometimes necessary - and it's nice to have a happy outcome."
Crofter Ian Duncan last saw the animal on Friday morning and began to worry on Saturday afternoon.

For the first time, the company has taken direct control of a crowd-funding page, which any individual can set up.
Concerns were raised over a fund for the family of Aysha Frade, after a person who set up the page had the same name as a woman convicted of fraud.
A crowd-funding page can be set up for free by any individual person for any personal cause - from a memorial fund to a holiday.
People can donate money to the cause via the website and, when the fund-raising time period is up, JustGiving send the total amount direct to the user, minus a 5% fee.
Following Wednesday's attack a number of crowd-funding pages were created on JustGiving for victims' families.
More than £17,000 has been raised for Ms Frade, who was killed on Westminster Bridge on Wednesday.
But well-wishers who did an internet search of a person listed as creating the page, discovered someone with the same name had been convicted of benefit fraud in 2013.
JustGiving also discovered the account username had been changed a number of times since it was first set up.
In an unprecedented move, JustGiving took the decision to take over the page from the initial user.
They also added a "Verified by JustGiving" label to the page to assure users that money raised would go to Ms Frade's family.
A similar label has appeared on a page for PC Keith Palmer, who was murdered outside Parliament.

Please provide a concise summary of the following section. | A statement from the service (NWAS) said the number of 999 calls it has received increased by 25% this year.
In 2015, the service was 6% below the national target for services to respond to an emergency within eight minutes.
Greater Manchester, Cheshire and Merseyside, Cumbria and Lancashire ambulance services merged in 2006.
"We were disappointed not to have hit the target at the end of the last year and are working hard to improve our performance," NWAS said in a statement.
"Because of the rise in life-threatening calls, it's highly likely people with less urgent injuries or illnesses will wait longer for an ambulance, as we must prioritise those who need our help more quickly."
The trust said it believes too many people are dialling 999 for minor ailments, which could easily be dealt with by visiting a pharmacy, a GP a walk-in centre or minor injuries unit.
"We would urge people to carefully consider whether their condition warrants an emergency response," said the trust.
The national expectation is that 75% of what are termed Red 1 and Red 2 calls should be responded to within eight minutes - in 2014-15 the figure for NWAS was 69%.
That figure was the third worst in the country, which Graham Curry, NWAS sector manager for South Lancashire, said was "not that bad", considering the service is the largest in the UK.
"Obviously, we want to hit every performance [target] because, if we do, we're giving the best performance possible," he said.
"We do do our best; however, the demand is so great at the moment, we're finding it virtually impossible to deliver that at this time." | The North West Ambulance Service has admitted it is struggling to hit national response targets due to a rise in the number of threat-to-life calls. |

Andy Jenkins, controller with the UK Coastguard, said: "Following an extensive search of the area using multiple assets nothing further has been found at this time so the decision has been made to suspend the search pending further information.
"A review of the incident details will be ongoing through the rest of the day."
The rescued man, who is originally from Romania, was picked up by an RNLI lifeboat and taken to shore at Shoreham before being taken to hospital.
Matt Pavitt, the Maritime and Coastguard Agency's south east coastal operations area commander, said: "Anybody that spends that length of time, numerous hours potentially, in the sea without any protective equipment - at this time of year it's a nice day but the sea is still cold - is very, very lucky to be alive."
Mr Pavitt said it would look into suggestions the men's boat collided with another vessel, but said it was too early to confirm what happened.
He said that whatever happened had been very quick, as "there was no distress call, no-one raised the alarm until the chap was found this morning".
BBC South East reporter Simon Jones said there had been some communication difficulties between the rescued man and emergency crews but he told them there had been three other men in boat.
A search of the area started and a man's body was recovered from the sea at about 08:15. It was brought ashore by a coastguard helicopter.
Boats and ships in the area were asked to look out for the two men who could be missing from the boat.
Up to 15 boats and ships, helped by two coastguard helicopters from Lydd and Lee-on-Solent, were involved in the search for the two missing men before it was suspended.
They included about 10 vessels from the nearby Rampion offshore wind farm.
Sussex Police said they believed the men onboard, all thought to be Romanian, left Brighton Marina at about midnight on a fishing trip and the boat may have sunk "a couple of hours later, but the facts are not clear at this time".
The men are thought to have gone out to sea on a fishing trip.
The Marine Accident Investigation Branch is examining what happened.
Kerry Harvey died on Saturday morning, the charity Pancreatic Cancer Action said.
The "envy" campaign involved patients saying they would rather have breast, cervical or testicular cancer.
It was designed to raise awareness about how poor the chances of survival are with pancreatic cancer.
It has a five-year survival rate of 3%, compared with 85% for breast cancer, 97% for testicular cancer and 67% for cervical cancer.
Ms Harvey, who was diagnosed in April 2013, said she wished she had breast cancer.
The comment sparked a furore and drew criticism from breast cancer groups.
However, in subsequent interviews she defended that stance.
In a statement, Pancreatic Cancer Action, said: "She was a brave and courageous young woman who touched so many hearts with her determination to raise awareness of pancreatic cancer despite being very ill herself.
"She devoted a significant amount of her own time trying to raise the profile of the disease that she, like many other pancreatic cancer patients, had not heard of before her diagnosis.
"Kerry campaigned with selfless vigour and, despite facing criticism, wanted to help others by encouraging earlier diagnosis and attract more funds for research.
"We will never forget Kerry who will be dearly missed, and remain in the hearts and thoughts of all of us at Pancreatic Cancer Action." | A lifeboat crew went to the aid of a surfer after he got into difficulty returning to shore while surfing off Thurso on Thursday.

Write a summary for the following excerpt. | Iftikhar Ahmad was received by Pakistani officials on the main border between the neighbouring regions on Saturday.
His father, Gulzar Ahmad Tantray, took him to India last year on the pretext of attending a wedding.
Pakistan has thanked India for returning Iftikhar.
"I had lost all hope of getting my child back," Iftikhar's mother Rohina Kayani told reporters, describing it as a "miracle".
"I am thankful to the Pakistani government for its help," she said.
Ms Kayani lives in Pakistani-administered Kashmir, while Mr Tantray now lives in Indian-administered Kashmir.
Iftikhar became the centre of a controversy between India and Pakistan when Mr Tantray was arrested in March 2016.
Mr Tantray, who grew up in a village in Ganderbal, crossed over to Pakistan-administered Kashmir in 1990, allegedly for arms training at the peak of the insurgency against Indian rule.
He returned to India-administered Kashmir with Iftikhar, where he was taken into police custody.
At the time, Rohina Kayani accused her husband of abducting the child and running away to the Indian side. Mr Tantray and his family have denied charges of kidnapping.
Roger Gower, 37, who worked for a conservation fund, had been flying near an elephant killed by poachers when his helicopter came under fire last month.
The murder trial itself is due to be held separately in a higher court.
Tanzania lost 60% of its elephant population between 2009 and 2014, mainly due to poaching, officials say.
The four men, among nine people in total charged in connection with Mr Gower's death, pleaded guilty on Thursday to "unlawful possession of firearms and ammunition" at a court in Tanzania's main city Dar es Salaam.
They each received prison sentences ranging between 15 and 20 years.
Mr Gower was originally from Birmingham in the UK and worked in London before moving to East Africa to work as a helicopter pilot.
He was shot down in the Maswa Game Reserve, which borders the world-famous Serengeti National Park in northern Tanzania.
Mr Gower managed to land his helicopter but died from his wounds before he could be rescued. | A five-year-old boy who was taken from Pakistan to India by his father nearly eleven months ago has been reunited with his mother.
