russian forces from the vostok battalion broke through the regional government building and demanded activists from the so called people's republic of donetsk which was set up in april leave the premises the insurgents then arrested members of the rival group, before removing their flags from check points in the area scroll down for videos members of the vostok battalion, a pro russia militia, today surrounded separatist headquarters in the eastern ukrainian city of donetsk,  in what is believed to be the most serious case of insurgent infighting to date the standoff was allegedly started amid reports of looting from a supermarket near the airport, which the vostok battalion allege was carried out by their allies the supermarket was near to the site where dozens of militiamen mainly from the vostok battalion were killed on monday today's confrontation ended with the militiamen seizing the looted goods and bulldozing the barricades that have lined the building since the people's republic was created the latest clashes come after a ukrainian military helicopter was shot down by rebels over slovyansk earlier today, killing 14 troops on board, including a general pro russian forces removed flags of other separatist groups from the barricades outside the donetsk regional administration building, where the so called people's republic of donetsk has been based since april the forces moved the flags after surrounding and storming the building, in a bid to eject the group from the premises, amid rumours of looting at a supermarket near the airport on monday acting president oleksandr turchynov told the parliament in kiev that insurgents used a portable air defense missile to down the helicopter he said: 'i have just received information that terrorists using russian anti aircraft missiles shot down our helicopter near slovyansk it had been ferrying servicemen for a change of duty' turchynov said army general serhiy kulchytskiy was among the dead the

activists from the people's republic out from the government building the rebel fighters stood guard in front of local residents as they prepared to storm the government building the standoff was said to be the result of alleged looting from a supermarket near the airport, which the vostok battalion say was carried out by their allies gunshots were heard in slovyansk near the crash site and a ukrainian air force jet was seen circling above it was too dangerous to visit the site itself turchynov said the helicopter was flying troops in for a rotation to a hill outside slovyansk where ukrainian forces have set up positions an insurgent fighter from the vostok battalion is shown looking at items that the group believed were looted by other separatist groups and stored in the donestsk regional administration building the confrontation ended with the militiamen seizing the allegedly looted goods and bulldozing the barricades that have lined the building since early april, when the people's republic announced its formation a separatist spokesman had earlier told russian news agencies that the militants had downed the helicopter in a fierce battle that was still raging on the southern outskirts of the rebel controlled city the unnamed spokesman said that 'as a result of active military activities, several houses belonging to civilians caught fire' the death toll is one of the highest suffered by ukrainian forces since the separatist insurgency first erupted in eastern ukraine in early april black smoke rises after a ukrainian military helicopter is shot down by rebels over slovyansk shelled: sorvar yasinov, 76, stands by his destroyed house following a mortar attack outside slovyansk bombed: sorvar yasinov surveys the damage to his home after heavy fighting

to shoot down the helicopter, exactly where it fell or what happened to its crew pictured is a file image of a ukrainian helicopter gunship the downing of the mi 8 helicopter is a major blow for kiev whose new president petro poroshenko is to be inaugurated within days he plans a first meeting with president vladimir putin at the d day commemorations in normandy on june 6 but he is also to demand military protection from the us and major european states, in a move that if accepted risks pulling the west into conflict with russia general serhiy kulchytskiy, who was killed when a ukrainian helicopter was shot down by rebels over slovyansk poroshenko said he could no longer trust russia, adding: 'we need a new defence alliance with the united states and europe to protect ukraine militarily' it also emerged that 33 men killed in bloody battles in donetsk were russian citizens, giving backing to ukraine's claims that moscow's blatant interference is fuelling the conflict ukraine premier arseniy yatsenyuk said the 'escalating' unrest would stop immediately if russia stopped supporting the rebels 'if russia stays out, we will resolve the east ukraine situation within a week or two,' he said 'so far, tensions are escalating in the ukrainian east,' yatsenyuk stressed russia called on the west  'to stop ukraine from descending into a national disaster' with one report saying the flare up in trouble had delayed russian troop redeployment from border areas, with intelligence gathering units remaining in place 'the international community awaits from kiev an immediate ceasing of military activities in the east of the country and the withdrawal of troops without that, achieving peace in ukraine is impossible' moscow claimed the ukraine onslaught counted children and the elderly among its victims russia expressed 'deep concern over the further escalation of the situation in eastern ukraine' slovyansk has become the epicentre of fighting between pro russia insurgents and government forces in recent weeks the city, located 100 miles west of the russian border, has seen constant clashes and its residential areas have regularly come under mortar shelling from government forces, prompting some residents to flee the kiev government condemns the insurgency roiling the east as the work of 'terrorists' bent on destroying the country and blames russia for

it was not that long ago that online banking was rolled out by all major banks, but now anyone living in france with a bank account and twitter handle can send a tweet to transfer money the service, called s money, was developed by one of france's largest banks and uses the social network to send cash between users, who reportedly don’t even have to enter bank details the move by groupe bpce, france's second largest bank by customers, coincides with twitter's own push into the world of online payments as the social network seeks new sources of revenue beyond advertising the service, called s money, was developed by one of france's largest banks and uses twitter (screenshot pictured) to send cash between users, who don’t even have to enter bank details twitter is racing other tech giants apple and facebook to get a foothold in new payment services for mobile phones or apps and while s money is not an official twitter product, it shows what is possible on social networks ‘(s money) offers twitter users in france a new way to send each other money, irrespective of their bank and without having to enter the beneficiary's bank details, with a simple tweet,’ nicolas chatillon, chief executive of s money, bpce's mobile payments unit, said in a statement payment by tweets will be managed via the bank's s money service, which allows money transfers via text message and relies on the credit card industry's data security standards facebook and twitter are said to be working on ways for people to transfer money, making splitting the bill (illustrated) as easy as sending a message it is not clear at this time how the technology works and mr chatillon simply said: ‘the ease of use and immediacy of the s money payment solution for individuals is perfectly adapted to the twitter user experience’ it appears that the service simply uses twitter in a way that can be compared to third party initiative such as starbucks’ #tweetacoffee and amazon’s #amazoncart, where people use a specific hashtag in exchange for goods last month, twitter started trials of its own new service, twitter buy, to allow consumers to find and buy products on its social network the service embeds a ‘twitter buy’ button inside tweets posted by more than two dozen non profits music artists such as pharrell and vendors such as burberry and home depot twitter's role to date has been to connect customers rather than processing payments or checking their identities ‘from the twitter point of view, there is a limit to their appetite for getting involved in payments processing itself,’ said andrew copeman, a payments analyst with financial services research firm aite group, who is based in edinburgh, scotland ‘at the moment, banks are probably viewing twitter and other social media networks as marketing channels to reach a wider set of their customers and to extend the bank's existing mobile banking initiatives,’ he said last month, twitter started trials of its new service, twitter buy, to allow consumers to find and buy products on its social network the service embeds a ‘twitter buy’ button inside tweets posted by more than two dozen non profits music artists such as pharell and vendors such as burberry (a catwalk show is pictured) twitter is testing a 'buy button' which can generate cash from its users the button sits in a tweet and lets people simply click to buy what they see it's being tested in a 'small percentage of us users' a total of 20 brands, including retailers including burberry, musicians such as rihanna, and non profits are involved in the trial the move is the first bug attempt by twitter to generate revenue by a means other than advertising once users have clicked 'buy' they will be asked to enter their payment and shipping details, unless it is not their first purchase in which case their details could have been stored twitter's success in developing additional services on its platform as facebook has done will be key to its future profitability rakuten bank in japan offers a similar ‘transfer by facebook’ service that lets users of its mobile banking app send money to anyone in their facebook friends list investors have been worried about twitter's slowing user growth, sending the shares down about 17 per cent this year, while rival facebook's have climbed 35 per cent thomas husson, a marketing strategy analyst with forrester research, said twitter was likely to multiply efforts to explore new ways to generate revenue with banks and credit card firms ‘twitter wants to more explicitly demonstrate the overall value of its network as an advertising platform,’ he said jean yves forel, ceo of groupe bpce said: 'groupe bpce is the first banking group to offer individuals a payment solution where they can transfer money with a simple tweet ‘this s money initiative opens up a whole new range of payment possibilities on the social networks' there is no indication that the service will be rolled out internationally friends using facebook messenger could soon send each other money in a very similar way to how they currently exchange photos within private messages this rumour is based on screenshots taken by a us computer science student who uncovered what he believes is facebook’s next move to make its stand alone messaging service more popular the payment options appear to let users send money in the same way they send files, with the addition of in app pin code to boost security andrew aude, a student at stanford university in california, used an ios tool called cycript on an iphone to explore the ‘forthcoming’ feature, which has yet to be confirmed by facebook,techcrunch reported he said users will be able to pay friends at the touch of a button within a message, but at this stage it is not known whether the feature will be offered for free, or whether users will have to pay a charge for the convenience a messenger payment service would go head to head with paypal, as well as other peer to peer payment systems it would also make facebook’s offering stand out from other popular messaging apps such as whatsapp ‘with fb messenger, you attach money just like you attach a photo or a location you don't even have to link a bank account!’ mr aude tweeted he continued that users can press a button to make a payment, entering the amount of money they want to send the transaction is not posted to a user’s news feed and is kept private explaining how it works, mr aude said the system uses ‘some magical means’ to look up the bank account number of a recipient, before depositing the chosen sum of money mr aude believes that facebook will roll out the feature in the us over the next few months, but concedes that it could take much longer

furious family members of those on board mh370 have written an 18 page letter demanding answers, 76 days after the malaysia airlines plane went missing without a trace it claims the families are fed up with 'skimpy accounts' of what occurred 'there is some confusion over the [plane's] last point of contact,' the letter reads it has been sent to australian prime minister tony abbott and malaysian prime minister najib razak, days before a deeper search of the southern indian ocean begins demanding answers: sarah bajc's (left) partner phillip wood (right), 50, was on board mh370, along with 238 other passengers and crew, when it disappeared in the early hours of march 8 on a flight from kuala lumpur to beijing a host of malaysian ministers and government bodies involved in the so far

disappearance, which was released on may 1 sarah bajc's partner phillip wood, 50, was on board the plane, along with 238 other passengers and crew, when it disappeared in the early hours of march 8 on a flight from kuala lumpur to beijing angry: family of the missing mh370 passengers have written an 18 page letter to the prime ministers of australia and malaysia demanding answers a stock picture of the plane is shown in this photo recipient: australian prime minister tony abbott received a copy of the letter she has spoken up for the families involved in writing the letter, who were helped by a host of experts, including retired pilots and air traffic controllers and military experts to compile their report ms bajc, who lives in beijing, said the 350 family members want more answers about the investigation to be released and for transparency, the courier mail reports they have asked that raw radar data from mh370 be released for independent analysis and they have also questioned how authorities could be certain the boeing 777 had crashed into the southern indian ocean devastated: relatives of passengers on board the missing flight, seen here in beijing in march, have still not received much concrete information in charge: malaysia's prime minister najib razak also received the letter from distraught families the malaysian government has now pledged to publicly release the raw satellite data, from insmarsat satellite communications company, which shows how the plane's path was located after it disappeared from civilian and military radar however, they have given no indication on when this will be done 'we request that a comprehensive interim report be issued as soon as possible detailing all the known facts, to include, but not be limited to, the many areas that we have enumerated in our analysis 'we believe that eliminating wrong information and assumptions is as important as confirming correct information and assumptions,' the letter says the search for mh370, off perth on australia's west coast, has so far failed to bring results searching: the bluefin 21, operating from the australian navy's ocean shield vessel (pictured), has been searching an

malaysia airlines plane by the bluefin 21 drone will wind up in days, ahead of commercially contracted technology being used for a deeper ocean hunt the bluefin 21, operating from the australian navy's ocean shield vessel, has been searching an area of the indian ocean where four acoustic signals were detected in early april retired defence chief angus houston, who has previously said the sounds were man made, on thursday said it was still too early to discount the pings amid speculation they might not be from flight mh370's black box after all 'they are still being analysed,' mr houston told abc tv 'we are ensuring that nothing has been overlooked and that everything has been considered' work also continues to review and analyse all the data and information relating to the likely flight path of mh370, which was largely provided by british company inmarsat mr houston said the joint agency coordination centre (jacc) would make an announcement about that 'extensive and very robust process of review' in the future 'nothing has been overlooked': former defence chief angus houston, chief coordinator of the joint agency coordination centre (jacc), said it was still too early to discount the pings that were heard in the southern indian ocean clueless: the search for mh370, off perth on australia's west coast, has so far failed to bring much evidence to light he was certain the boeing 777 wound up in the indian ocean and searchers were looking in the 'right broad area' jacc said ocean shield was expected to depart the search area on wednesday and return to the west australian fleet base on saturday where the bluefin 21 would be demobilised in the meantime, it will continue operating within its depth operating limits two chinese ships, the haixun 01 and zhu kezhen, are on their way to the search area to map the ocean floor in preparation for the deep ocean technology, which, like the bluefin 21, will use side scan sonar to hunt for wreckage mr houston also said the first book about the plane, written by american writer nigel cawthorne, was disappointing and insensitive in the book, cawthorne claims the plane could have been shot down by us thai strike fighters as part of a training drill that went horribly wrong 'the families have gone through an incredibly traumatic time over the last two and a half months,' mr houston said 'to be putting books out at this stage is very premature 'there's still a long way to go with the search, and of course, if we eventually find the aircraft, the investigation into what actually happened'

ominous prediction: mr juncker stopped short of saying that war was on the horizon but added, 'the demons haven't been banished, they are merely sleeping' one of europe’s most prominent statesmen has warned that resentment of germany across the continent is so high that war remained a danger jean claude juncker, a long time president of the european council, painted an ominous portrait of europe, claiming there ‘chilling’ parallels in 2013 with 100 years ago – the eve of the first world war he said the eurozone crisis had exposed long standing tensions between countries mr juncker, 58, who is also prime minister of luxembourg, stopped short of saying that war was on the horizon but warned: ‘the demons haven’t been banished; they are merely sleeping’ wars in bosnia and kosovo, he said, remind us of that and he said he was 'chilled by the realization of how similar circumstances in europe in 2013 are to those of 100 years ago' in june 1914 the heir apparent of the austrian hungarian empire, franz ferdinand, was assassinated along with his wife in the bosnian capital sarajevo, setting in motion the political and military alliances which dragged europe into the greatest war ever seen by the end of it, three empires including that which ferdinand was to inherit had vanished and ten million soldiers were dead, the continent ruined and exhausted with the way clear for the nazis to come to power in germany now with europe wracked in a financial crisis seemingly without end, in which societies are being pushed to the brink as the middle classes are squeezed, mr juncker says he is shocked by the rise of nationalist sentiments seen in countries like greece and italy, both hurting under severe austerity measures he said he was deeply upset by the way german politicians 'lashed out' at greece as it went broke, adding; 'i was just as shocked by the banners of protesters in athens that showed the german chancellor in a nazi uniform assassination: in june 1914 the heir apparent of the austrian hungarian empire, franz ferdinand, was assassinated along with his wife in the bosnian capital sarajevo (pictured moments before the attack), setting in motion the political and military alliances which dragged europe into the greatest war ever seen over the top: by the end of the war, three empires had vanished and ten million soldiers were dead, the continent ruined and exhausted with the way clear for the nazis to come to power in germany 'sentiments suddenly surfaced that we thought had been finally relegated to the past the italian election was also excessively anti german and thus un european 'anyone who believes that the eternal issue of war and peace in europe has been permanently laid to rest could be making a monumental error' in an interview with germany's spiegel magazine he said the continent wasn't yet manning the barricades, but added; 'i see obvious parallels with regard to people's complacency in 1913, many people believed that they would never again be a war in europe anti german sentiment: juncker said he was shocked to see greek protesters dressed as nazis during anti austerity demonstrations last year 'the great powers of the continent were economically so strongly intermeshed that there was the widespread opinion that they could simply no longer afford to engage in military conflicts 'primarily in western and northern europe, there was a complete sense of complacency based on the assumption that peace had been secured forever' he said only a united europe was a safe and strong europe 'a united europe is our continent's only chance to avoid falling off the world's radar,' he added 'the heads of government of germany, france and the united kingdom also know that their voice is only heard internationally because they speak through the megaphone of the european union' mr juncker, who will campaign again next year to be the leader of his country once more, said he is backing germany's conservative chancellor angela merkel in her bid for a third term of office in the general election in the autumn

the mayor of an irish town was forced to resign last night after provoking outrage by declaring he would no longer represent africans from his constituency darren scully, who is also a councillor for ireland's centre right political party fine gael, apologised for stating he found ‘black africans’ to be aggressive and bad mannered after he caused widespread fury however, the former mayor of naas faces being jailed or fined for the outburst after an official complaint was made to republic of ireland's police force, known as gardaí former mayor: darren scully has resigned after provoking outrage by declaring he would no longer represent africans from his constituency politicians and anti racism groups had demanded mr scully’s expulsion, while a labour mp has reported the father of two’s remarks to gardaí under the incitement to hatred act ‘i realise now that my remarks were open to an interpretation that i did not intend,’ mr scully said in a statement ‘i abhor racism in all its forms i have been proud to be mayor of naas and to represent all the people of the town however, as a result of the upset that i have caused, i feel it is appropriate that i step down from this position’ if convicted by gardaí, mr scully could face six months to two years in jail or fines ranging from €1,000 to €10,000 he made the controversial remarks live on the town's kildare radio station kfm yesterday morning darren scully in fancy dress wtih a model criticising the manner in which black africans asked for his help in getting on social housing lists, mr scully said he would no longer deal with them ‘i have been met with aggressiveness, i have been met with bad manners,’ he said during the radio interview ‘i have also been played the race card ‘[they’ve] said: “oh yeah you’ll help white people, but you don’t help black people”’ he added: ‘so after a while of this i’ve been doing this now for six or seven years – i just made the decision, a conscious decision, earlier this year, that i just was not going to, myself personally, was not going to take on representations from black africans ‘i would be very courteous to them and i would pass on their queries to other representatives, who would take their concerns’ politicians, equality organisations and minorities support groups all rushed to condemn the comments fine gael had issued a statement within an hour distancing themselves from his comments and promising that there would be a formal investigation at party level ‘the views expressed by cllr scully do not reflect the views of fine gael, and they are not party policy,’ the statement read ‘fine gael is an inclusive party and we are trying to build a country that caters for all’ former labour mp moosajee bhamjee warned yesterday that comments such as those by mr scully would represent the ‘beginning of official racism’ in ireland the country’s first muslim mp, who served as a mp for clare from 1992 to 1997, warned that such comments from a government party councillor could lead to official state racism if left unchecked ‘this is really, really frightening because it could be the beginning of state racism in this country,’ dr bhamjee said ‘there is a small neo nazi following in this country you know, and this just adds to what they see as enlightenment it’s important now more than ever that our racism laws be strengthened’ schoolboy david agboala is reluctant to play with scully and enda kenny on the 2007 campaign trail the psychiatrist said he had been abused in the past himself and he called on the government to introduce a new paper on racism as the law is clearly deficient in this area and even though mr scully resigned as mayor last night, dr bhamjee believes he should also be expelled from fine gael ‘i’ve been abused myself in the past too, people feel they’re entitled to, but the law of the land says no ‘cllr scully is still a public representative, he should be expelled from fine gael after this and i’m calling for that’ the association campaigning for equality in sport, show racism the red card, was appalled by the comments and said it was clearly discrimination ‘the qualification for mr scully’s comments that “i am not racist” is bizarre,’ show racism the red card co ordinator garrett mullan said ‘there cannot be an acceptance of racism within politics in ireland’ sue conlan, chief executive of the irish refugee council, said: ‘negative stereotypes create racism, and as we saw earlier this week when a nigerian taxi driver was assaulted, this can lead to violence ‘we all have a role to play in counteracting negative stereotypes and our elected officials have a special role to play in promoting tolerance and inclusion throughout the community cllr scully’s comments are outrageous and not worthy of an elected representative’ catherine murphy, an independent mp for mr scully’s constituency, kildare north, said the remarks were ‘outrageous’ and ‘totally unacceptable’ she described as ‘unfathomable’ the reasons why he felt the need to make such a statement ‘while listening to kildare fm this morning i could scarcely believe what i was hearing ‘it’s right and proper that cllr scully step down as mayor of naas immediately and i welcome his decision to do so ‘however, it’s essential that if he remains as a public representative he must undertake to represent all of the people, without qualification or prejudice’ taxi driver ola akinsete, who is originally from nigeria, met mr scully last month after he drove him home to kerdiff park in naas the 44 year old, who has lived in naas since 2000, said: ‘the racial issue in naas is becoming so bad for the past three years – it’s becoming an epidemic but it’s a big shock to me to hear him say those comments as a young man, it’s unbelievable ‘what’s happening in naas are discussions about what the black community is doing to the town for instance, some people say we are taking their jobs and taking over the place this should not be the attitude of some of the public we are in a different century ‘i came to ireland for a better life but now my wife, kate, and i just make sure our children are safe and have a better upbringing ‘if this situation continues, how are my children able to live in a country where they have been brought up with such racial issues?’

the so called 'tiger mom' has been the subject of massive debate over parenting methods however, researchers at stanford say they have finally solved the problem of which is the best parenting method they claim that in fact both methods are equally as effective motivation, the researchers wrote, is understood to come from within an individual in western families, while asian children find strength in parental expectations in 2011, yale law professor amy chua (pictured) provoked a cultural clash with a wall street journal article, 'why chinese mothers are superior,' that advocated a strict approach – 'tiger parenting' – common in east asia the article suggested western style parenting was too permissive in the backlash to the article, critics accused chua of over controlling her children in her quest to make them succeed stanford researchers alyssa fu and hazel markus suggest in a new study, both culture centric approaches can be effective motivation, the researchers wrote, is understood to come from within an individual in western families, while asian children find strength in parental expectations the bottom line is that children can be motivated either way, they say 'these findings underscore the importance of understanding cultural variation in how people construe themselves and their relationships to others 'while european american parents give their children wings to fly on their own, asian american parents provide a constant wind beneath their children's wings,' wrote fu, a doctoral student in psychology and the lead author of the study, and markus, a professor of psychology the debate was sparked in 2011, when yale law professor amy chua provoked a cultural clash with a wall street journal article, 'why chinese mothers are superior,' that advocated a strict approach – 'tiger parenting' – common in east asia the article suggested western style parenting was too permissive in the backlash to the article, critics accused chua of over controlling her children in her quest to make them succeed in the asian american family model, the authors suggest, children learn the value of being interdependent with one's close others, especially one's mother in contrast, european american families tend to emphasize that the person is and should be independent, even from one's mother the focus is on developing self esteem and self efficacy in the child 'we were interested in finding out how interdependence could be a motivating factor,' said fu, who is is presenting the research at the annual convention for the association for psychological science in san francisco 'the idea was to compare the asian american cultural context to the european american one' in four separate studies involving 342 students from a northern california high school, students were asked for open ended descriptions of their mothers they also answered questions about how connected they felt with their mothers, as well as how much pressure they received in two of the experiments, they examined how asian american and european american students thought about their moms after they experienced failure in a word puzzle task that required them to think about themselves and others who are close to them the research findings suggest that asian americans and european americans see mothers differently european families tend to emphasize that the person is and should be independent, even from one's mother for example, asian american high schoolers were more likely to talk about their relationships with their mothers than were european americans asian americans more often noted that their moms helped them with homework or pushed them to succeed on the other hand, european american students were more apt to talk about their mothers as separate individuals – describing their appearance or their hobbies, for example one defining trait of 'tiger moms,' fu said, is that they do not simply give orders to their kids without getting involved 'tiger moms throw themselves into everything that their children are doing,' she said 'and when asian american kids see themselves as really connected with their mothers, they can benefit from their mother's pressure'

a man who once worked closely with beleaguered comedian bill cosby has come forward to detail how he once helped the star funnel thousands of dollars to a virtual harem of young women he kept during the cosby show's 8 season run frank scotti, 90, told the daily news on sunday that he spent years as nbc's 'fixer' for cosby as a conduit through whom the actor sent lady pals funds and as a guard at cosby's dressing room door when those women visited 'he had everybody fooled,' said scotti, who says he eventually walked away from the star because of how he treated women nbc employee speaks: a former nbc employee has come forward claiming he helped bill cosby funnel women to many women in the 1980s and 1900s despite rumors of protests, bill cosby's florida show went off without a hint of trouble on friday evening (pictured) the nbc veteran told the new york daily news, in a story published sunday, that cosby had a rotating lineup of young women brought to his brooklyn dressing room by a complicit modeling agency scotti said the manhattan agency's owner would lead the girls there and leave once cosby picked his chosen lady 'she knew exactly what was going to go on,' scotti told the news 'then he'd tell me, 'stand outside the door and don't let anyone in' now you put that together and figure (out) why' according to scotti, some of the girls were as young as 16 scotti claims cosby would put women he especially liked up in apartments and give them up to $2,000 per month after decades, scotti's even saved receipts from money orders he says he gave those women for cosby one of those women, shawn thompson, had a daughter named autumn jackson who would claim cosby was her father dressing room visits: jc studios in brooklyn was home to the cosby show for several seasons, it's unclear if scotti's purported 'fixes' happened there halcyon days: frank scotti worked with cosby during the star's time at nbc in the 1980s and 90s, when he starred on the cosby show (pictured) after decades, scotti's even saved receipts from money orders he says he gave women for cosby, though the money was moved in scotti's name, he says the money orders, though, are in scotti's name and not cosby's 'i did a lot of crazy things for him,' scotti told the daily news 'he was covering himself by having my name on it it was a coverup i realized it later' and when he did, scotti said he had to walk away 'you've got all of these kids, every time,' he told the daily news 'i used to like him, but that's the reason i quit him after so many years — because of the girls' in recent weeks, at least seven women have publicly accused the 77 year old cosby of sexual assault years ago cosby has not been charged in connection with any of the allegations only one woman has filed suit andrea constand, who sued in 2005 and settled for an undisclosed amount before the case went to trial cosby's attorney, martin singer, has criticized previous 'decades old discredited allegations' and denied some others he suggested in a friday statement that cosby's accusers may have another agenda 'there has never been a shortage of lawyers willing to represent people with claims against rich, powerful men, so it makes no sense that not one of these new women who just came forward for the first time now ever asserted a legal claim back at the time they allege they had been sexually assaulted' models: model janice dickinson, here in a file photo, is one of several women who claim they were raped by cosby scotti claims the actor once had a deal with a manhattan modeling agency, who delivered young women to his dressing room door a statement issued friday by bill cosby's lawyer, martin singer, in response to allegations of sexual assault against the comic: 'the new, never before heard claims from women who have come forward in the past two weeks with unsubstantiated, fantastical stories about things they say occurred 30, 40, or even 50 years ago have escalated far past the point of absurdity these brand new claims about alleged decades old events are becoming increasingly ridiculous, and it is completely illogical that so many people would have said nothing, done nothing, and made no reports to law enforcement or asserted civil claims if they thought they had been assaulted over a span of so many years lawsuits are filed against people in the public eye every day there has never been a shortage of lawyers willing to represent people with claims against rich, powerful men, so it makes no sense that not one of these new women who just came forward for the first time now ever asserted a legal claim back at the time they allege they had been sexually assaulted this situation is an unprecedented example of the media's breakneck rush to run stories without any corroboration or adherence to traditional journalistic standards over and over again, we have refuted these new unsubstantiated stories with documentary evidence, only to have a new uncorroborated story crop up out of the woodwork when will it end? it is long past time for this media vilification of mr cosby to stop'

awaited admission of long term doping the investigation and later admission to doping destroyed armstrong's reputation and career he admitted that he has to accept that he has lost all credibility from the revelations 'i don’t blame anyone for thinking, 'i don’t trust this guy with all his bulls*** for ten years',' he said however, he still feels harshly done by in his punishments when compared with other riders who have also been caught doping 'i think most people are smart enough to say: 'that doesn’t make any sense',' he said 'what stands out in a lot of people’s minds is that we all know what happened in those other years, but those [results] still stand' armstrong and his team of lawyers are about to face several civil lawsuits that could drain his huge fortune bleak outlook: there's no hope of him ever riding competitively again and he is facing civil lawsuits to the tune of tens of millions of dollars in june a federal judge rejected armstrong's bid to dismiss a whistleblower lawsuit claiming that he and his former cycling team, which the us postal service had sponsored, defrauded the government in a scheme to use banned, performance enhancing drugs armstrong claims the us postal service benefited hugely from the exposure it got from its sponsorship and that the lawsuit had been brought too late the lawsuit has potential $100 million ramifications for a man who was previously one of the world's wealthiest sports stars 'i'm very confident that that`s a winner for us,' said armstrong 'i don't think anyone can truly argue the us postal service was damaged 'they made a lot of money in the deal and got what they bargained for 'i worked my ass off for them and i'm proud of it furthermore there wasn't a technical relationship between myself and the us postal service' reboot: armstrong hopes to restart his charity work, undergo a course of therapy and says he is planning on writing a book where he will 'put it all out there' armstrong has said he now plans to write another book, which unlike his last effort, 'it's not about the bike', will be totally honest 'i need to write a book and it needs to be pretty raw i need to put it out there and let it sit the sooner the better it has to be the right book, the right tone and there has to be totally no b s,' he said he added that he sees writing as a kind of therapy that will help see him through the next few years, and that he is 'fully committed to putting it all out there' asked about seeking actual therapy, the 42 year old said: 'my therapy is riding my bike, playing golf and having a beer i haven’t gotten around to it i get it totally, but it’s not something that’s taken place yet' armstrong relishes a good fight, and claims it is this spirit that made him the cyclist he was 'i definitely have an 'f you' attitude,' he said 'i fight in training, i fight to win races, i fight to motivate the guys in the team' the list of those he hurt, and who won't forgive him, is long: three time tour winner greg lemond, journalist david walsh, who spent more than a decade trying to expose armstrong, and former friends frankie and betsy andreu, are just a few a number have asked whether his public mea culpa on oprah was genuine and if he needs to do more 'that's a difficult one for me to answer,' he said 'you can't do justice in a one hour conversation it was a situation for a lot of people that it was too much information, but for other people cycling fans, sports fans, for other parts of the population it wasn't enough, i didn't go far enough'

google ceo larry page announces that the search giant has concluded a $125 billion deal to buy motorola mobility, a key manufacturer of smartphones and other devices google completed its $125 billion acquisition of phone maker motorola and immediately appointed a senior google exec as ceo google is widely expected to use the acquisition to produce further phones and tablets running its android software including google branded rivals to apple's ipad dennis woodside, previously president of google's americas region, is motorola's new ceo it is google's largest acquisition ever, and pushes it deeper into the phone market google ceo larry page said, 'many users coming online today may never use a desktop machine, and the impact of that transition will be profound' besides producing smartphones and tablet computers, motorola  also makes cable tv boxes that could provide google with a springboard for delivering more of its services, including advertising, to living rooms in the form of a revamped version of its google tv service macquarie securities analyst benjamin schachter believes google is particularly interested in developing a better tablet computer powered by its android software to compete against apple's hot selling ipad and amazon's kindle fire google is already a formidable force in mobile computing thanks to its android software, the most popular mobile operating system on earth motorola's xoom tablet: google is widely expected to use the acquisition to produce further phones and tablets running its android software including google branded rivals to apple's ipad at the same time, the acquisition has been interpreted as largely a defensive one google needs motorola's trove of 17,000 cellphone patents to defend android phones against lawsuits by apple, which accuses them of copying iphone features google and motorola announced the deal last summer, expecting it would close late last year or early this year but approval from chinese regulators was slow in coming on saturday, china approved the deal, on condition that google inc's android software would remain free for other phone makers for at least five years regulators in the us and europe had cleared the deal three months ago the acquisition will also test google's ability to keep its business partners, shareholders and employees happy as it moves beyond internet search and other services built on software to begin manufacturing a wide range of equipment for the first time google executive dennis woodside was appointed as the new ceo of motorola woodside is also an ironman triathlete google has been reassuring its android partners that motorola's devices won't get souped up versions of the software or receive other preferential treatment although it initially was drawn to motorola mobility for its patents, google has been signaling recently that it has been drawing up more ambitious plans for motorola mobility the company also will likely have to do some hand holding with investors who have already been fretting about motorola mobility's troubles eroding google's hefty profit margins as its line of smartphones has waned in popularity, motorola mobility has suffered losses totaling $17 billion during the past three years google has earned a total of $25 billion over the same stretch the contrasting fortunes of the two companies is one reason why ceo larry page has decided to operate motorola mobility separately so it will be easier for investors to track how the different lines of business are faring turning around motorola mobility also will require layoffs, a painful process that belies google's carefully cultivated image as a cuddly employer google laid off about 300 people after it paid $32 billion to acquire online advertising service doubleclick inc in 2008, up until the biggest deal in the company's history the cutbacks represented about one quarter of the workforce that google inherited from doubleclick if google imposes a similar reduction on motorola mobility's 20,500 employee payroll, it would translate into about 5,000 layoffs taking on so many new employees also raises the risk of culture clashes with the 33,000 people already working at google motorola mobility is one half of the old motorola inc it split at the beginning of last year the other half, motorola solutions inc, is still independent it sells police radios, barcode scanners and other products aimed at government and corporate customers google shares fell $569 to $60841 in morning trading tuesday they are still near their 52 week high of $67025 per share set in early january

a deaf quadriplegic blogger who won the hearts of thousands with touching internet posts before his sister announced he had died from pneumonia has been exposed as a fraud 'david rose', a 24 year old cerebral palsy sufferer, garnered legions of fans with his witty tweets and facebook posts, which he said he typed using a tobii computer that tracked his eye movement using infrared light after his story gained national coverage, rose's sister 'nichole' revealed online on october 11 that he had passed away, leading to an outpouring of grief and sympathy from across the internet but now a fellow blogger, who carried out web investigations after becoming suspicious of rose, has exposed him as a fake, revealing just how he spun an intricate web of lies that fooled so many lies: a deaf paraplegic blogger named david rose has been revealed as a fake after a fellow blogger grew suspicious of his claims 'rose' had used this picture on social networking sites ruse: the picture is actually of a man named hunter dunn and has appeared in news reports, pictured after learning of rose's death and his 'last blog post', published by his sister on friday, blogger kristi anne began to question the story writing a post exposing the fraud, she asked how a paraplegic who could only type four words a minute could keep in such swift and consistent contact with followers online she also wondered how life must be for someone who was deaf and unable to sign as a result of his cerebral palsy yet also noted how he described his friends and relationships with such detail she then found that the photo rose had been using was actually of hunter dunn, another young man with cerebral palsy, whose picture appears on the tobii site kristi anne was unable to discover dunn's facebook page, and noted that it was he who deserved the real praise for being an inspiration man, rather than the fake 'rose' she added that most of rose's tweets had been sent using tweetdeck, a social media dashboard where users can view multiple messages at once and send their own false: 'rose' had also uploaded this photo of him using his tobii computer to type messages with his eyes revealed: but the blogger also found that picture was of hunter dunn from the computer's website after sending her findings to thechive, who had followed rose's 'inspirational' story, they agreed it made no sense that rose could be using this technology 'somebody using a tobii ocular reader would never use tweetdeck,' wrote reporter john resig 'but somebody posing as dave could easily use the deck' resig added on his own post that one of his friends, who had been in close contact with rose, flew to los angeles to attend his funeral after learning about his death but nichole rose made her excuses and refused to meet the friend thechive also discovered there was no death certificate for rose after kristi anne published her blog post, a blogger immediately commented on it, admitting that they had carried out the hoax and lauding its positive effects yet, while identifying themselves as nichole, the blogger added that that person was also a character and her pictures were of an actress from a music video 'no celebrity or fame was intended in this ruse; it all came quite fast and was a total surprise,' they wrote 'up until recently he only had a handful of online friends the quick and furious fame is actually what brought about the end of it all new persona: he wrote a blog, tweeted and posted facebook messages, gathering thousands of fans he spoke a lot about his sister 'nichole' who he now admits is also made up 'in hindsight it probably would have been better just to shut it all down and have everyone wonder what the hell happened, but the final post was meant to have the effect it did 'to inspire people to love and live a better life, and the public knowledge that it came under this false pretense takes it all away i hope that people who were moved by it still live by it, but it seems unlikely it's possible that more damage has been done in your reveal than in the original deception' he added that he was 'just a guy with a twisted psyche who realizes he's caused a lot of damage' but that he would not reveal his identity as he didn't want to ruin his life thechive added: 'we've all been victimized by this disturbed individual 'it never dawned on us that somebody with such an established internet footprint would actually be mascarading as a deaf, physically handicap person it would seem absurd to believe somebody would go so far as to fake a death' cheated: 'david' regularly posted tweets both inspiring and witty that fooled his readers the revelations come after the fraud, who claimed 'david' lived in a residential home for disabled people in orange county, california, posted a 'last blog post' on friday 'you are all special all of you unique!' it read 'love each other and make each other smile a good joke is good medicine! make sure everyone around you have a smile ok? 'always do what is right always! but forgive yourself if you forget sometimes i have to go now i love you all i really do you are amazing i will never forget you!' maintaining the ruse of deafness, he added: 'first of all want to ask if there is sound in heaven i guess there is but not sure if i want it! fans: twitter users sent kind messages to 'dave' as they were deceived into thinking he was real reality: the blogger, who has not been identified, stole the pictures of a man named hunter dunn (front) 'here on earth i been happy to be deaf and nobody seem to be very good at describe what is sound, so i have not miss it but i guess if that part of the deal then i have to take what i get!' upon learning of david's death saddened followers of his social media postings wrote heartfelt tributes to him 'goodnight dave and thank you so much for just being you brother,' commented on twitter user under the handle @albusq 'in honor of david rose, am going to follow his advice and reach out to someone i haven't in awhile,' wrote @juanmagdaraog many others posted messages with the words 'rip' and 'goodnight', while the chive's editor mac faulkner wrote: 'we lost a good man today @daveonwheels you inspired a lot of people and your incredible personality will live on forever'

to be a competent radio newsreader takes a particular skill and talent but for nas campanella it is even more challenging with the hurdles of a vision impairment and little sensitivity in her fingertips the 26 year old, from sydney, has an inconceivable four streams of audio feeding through her headphones during the three minute live news bulletins on triple j which would be enough for anyone to throw in the towel but campanella, who also writes and cuts her own segments, reads the live reports effortlessly like a true professional despite not being able to read braille due to her condition scroll down for video despite a vision impairment and little sensitivity in her fingertips, nas campanella is a newsreader at triple j campanella did a 12 month post in in bombala, in rural nsw, before landing a cadetship at the abc she lost her vision at six months old and then diagnosed with a condition preventing her from reading braille to help make the magic happen campanella uses a laptop with speech software where whatever she types and anything the mouse scans over is read out to her the four different streams of audios when live on radio is a voice telling her what to say during the bulletin, her voice throughout the microphone reading out the news, the grabs that have been packaged before going to air, and finally a clock telling her exactly when to start and finish 'it has taken the better part of four years to get it down pat and it's still not perfect  i can hear a voice telling me what to say so i listen and read at the same time, ' she tells daily mail australia 'i've got to be careful not to lag too far behind it's got to be a split second after i hear it that i say it so it's not a perfect system but it works quite well for the most part' needless to say by the end of a long working week, her ears need a well earned rest from the sensory overload describing the experience as constantly stuck in 'busy traffic' 'there is a lot going on and at the end of the week i feel like i need some quiet time,' she said at just six months old, blood vessels burst in the back of her eyes which caused them to detach from the retina leaving her with only vision of shadow and light to add to her difficulties, campanella struggled to grasp reading braille until it was discovered when she was ten years old that she has charcot marie tooth a delayed sensitivity in the hands and feet due to the nerve endings 'it was frustrating before being diagnosed because there was an assumption that i was lazy or not very intelligent,' she said 'it takes a second for my hand to register it's on a kettle that is hot or i will be walking along sand that is really hot but it might take my feet a little while to register' campanella has always wanted to be a journalist since she was a child when she read newspapers campanella out on in the field interviewing the mayor in bombala, in rural nsw, a few years ago campanella insists she would still be the same driven personality if she had her sight but admits her impairment has pushed her to be that bit stronger 'to a certain extent i think fundamentally i'm a pretty determined, enthusiastic, pushy person anyway so i don't think that has really changed because of my vision impairment, she said 'but i've obviously had a lot more to prove than other people had when they approached employers for a job' when campanella first started looking for work while still at university she was met with a lot of negativity from potential employers her tactic was she wouldn't mention in her application that she was visually impaired but would explain her situation if she received a call back 'the fact that i have a vision impairment is nothing to me there's no reason why i shouldn't be looked at but it's something that other people have found a bit confronting so it's nice to be able to get people come around to the idea,' she said she encountered negativity while looking for work at university but that didn't stop her from achieving her goal a keen jetsetter, campanella's dream job would be to work as a travel writer thanks to great persistence it only took campanella six months to look for a full time job when she landed a cadetship at the abc in 2011 and has never looked back following her 12 month training across all mediums, she was sent to do regional post in bega, in rural nsw, for a year before landing a role as a newsreader with triple j although she finds it surprising that people see her as an inspiration she happily takes on that role 'i became a journalist because it's what i love to do but it's also nice to know i can help break that mould and hopefully get other people with disabilities employed as well, she said she has always wanted to be a reporter since she was a child when she loved reading the newspaper a keen jetsetter, campanella's dream job would be to work as a travel writer which some people might question as she can't describe what she is seeing on her adventures 'using vision as a form of travel is narrow way of looking at things,' she said 'you can describe the food you ate, the kindness of the people, the smells around you and the feeling of the sand on your feet' campanella said using vision as a form of travel is a narrow way of looking at things

they have described themselves as the 'spice girls' of their day the 'lily white' maids of honour chosen to accompany the queen on her coronation day lady rosemary spencer churchill, lady jane vane tempest stewart, lady anne coke, lady mary baillie hamilton, lady moyra hamilton and lady jane heathcote drummond willoughby were chosen for their 'decorative' beauty as well as their ability to carry the queen's heavy train all six were reunited at westminster abbey today to celebrate sixty years since that momentous day the queen on her coronation day in 1953, accompanied by the six women who now call themselves 'the queen's spice girls' according to lady anne glenconner then lady anne coke   behind the pomp, preparations for one of the most iconic events in modern history were a joyfully chaotic affair the then 20 year old daughter of the earl of leicester, was a vivacious socialite who described the maids as the 'spice girls of our day' and explained each were chosen because of their lineage the girls had to be the daughter of an earl, marquess or duke and be unmarried 'we also had to have a certain type of look and figure put it this way, we wouldn't have got picked if we were fat!' she laughed according to lady glenconner there was barely any time to rehearse and never in the abbey itself 'we had a few run throughs with the duchess of norfolk, who actually walked quite differently from the queen she walked much faster and we had to really pick up our pace in a hurry when we got to the abbey in the end we had just one rehearsal with the queen at buckingham palace, where she wore some kind of curtain wrapped around her waist to mimic her heavy robes,' she recalled lady anne glenconner, left, and lady jane rayne, right, arrives at westminster abbey today for a service to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the coronation service the night before the coronation which was held on june 2 1953 the capital was so packed that lady glenconner had to sleep on a mattress on her great uncle's floor 'i don't think many people would have imagined that,' she said she added: 'on the morning we had our hair and make up done because the event was being televised for the first time, but my hair was a disaster 'i had just had a perm done and they put these heated rollers in my hair i was frazzled and looked like a sheep and was awfully upset fortunately the hairdresser got to work and made me look half decent 'we dressed at buckingham palace like the queen our dresses were by normal hartnell, but while they looked exquisite they were the most horribly uncomfortable things to wear and absolutely crushed our ribs we were told to keep wriggling out toes to try and keep the circulation going' lady rosemary muir, left, and lady mary russell and lady jane willoughby, right, entering westminster abbey lady moyra campbell was one of the queen's maids of honour at the 1953 coronation four of the more junior maids, including lady glenconner, headed to westminster abbey head of the queen's arrival in the gold state coach 'it was so exciting and we could hear the crowd roaring as the queen approached as she alighted we helped her out and smoothed her train it was really quite cumbersome but had six invisible silk handles stitched into it 'i must say she looked quite ravishing, the dress was just beautiful she had such a tiny little waist, wonderful porcelain skin and bright, sparkling eyes 'she turned to us and said: 'ready, girls?' and with that we were off we were all a bag of nerves, but she was so calm it made us realised everything would be fine 'inside it was so spectacular, the most amazing thing i have ever seen the colours, the music were just wonderful remember we girls had lived through the war, which was just so gloomy then we were suddenly transported into this wonderful tapestry that had come to life 'unfortunately half way through the service my dress was so tight that i began to faint black rod [a senior officer in the house of lords] was standing next to me and saw my legs buckle slightly, so held me up we had smelling salt sewn into our gloves and i crushed my vial and wiggled my feet in an attempt to stay awake 'fortunately during the recess the archbishop of canterbury came up and offered me a nip of brandy from a flask he had hidden in the abbey that did the trick' britain's queen elizabeth returned to the scene of her coronation today to mark a reign that has weathered six decades of social transformation and the end of her country's global empire unlike the pomp and circumstance of the coronation itself, the reception at buckingham palace was most definitely a family affair, with the young prince charles and princess anne running around and hiding under their mother's voluminous dress 'when people ask you what the best moment of your life was, most say their wedding day of course i remember that too but the coronation was something exceedingly special i was so lucky to be a part of it…the roars, the excitement,' she said 'after i had stood on the balcony with the queen i went down to the crowds and listened to them calling for her there were so many people, you couldn't squeeze a pin between them' and later that night there was another, far less decorous celebration 'my uncle had been asked to chaperone some of the visiting sheiks and i went out to nightclub with them until the early hours!' she recalled the 60th anniversary ceremony remembering the queen's 1953 coronation was held in westminster abbey today and attended by all six maids of honour asked what she thinks the secret to the queen's six remarkable decades on the throne is, lady glenconner, now 79, who went on to marry colin tennant, the 3rd baron glenconner, sums it up in one word: duty 'i often discussed it with her sister, princess margaret, for whom i became a lady in waiting, and she told me that was what they were brought up to expect the queen was raised to give her life to her country,' she said she continued: 'the queen has behaved impeccably over the years and i think people realise that 'she is actually a very modest  person to be around and i think the celebrations this year and those to come have made people realise what a tremendous debt of thanks we owe her as a nation 'i remember very distinctly watching her in the abbey as she was being anointed, she had stripped off her regalia and stood there in her simple white shift it made her look very vulnerable, a young woman with the weight of her world on her shoulders 'then the years of training kicked in i feel thrilled 60 years later to have played a small part in that remarkable day'

finance department he is from the law department 'i understand it that his shooting was in the finance department it is likely that they mocked him somehow ‘before they split up, he bought her a trip to edinburgh, ordered everything, paid for it all, and some two days before it she said: “i'm not going' he was in a horrible depression after that’ vinogradova had been on medication to cope with his depression but had not taken it the day before the shooting his mother added: ‘he was absolutely quiet yesterday,’ adding that she had tried to discourage his interest in shooting in his manifesto posted on a russian social site which also included racist images, vinogradov declared: ‘i hate human society and i am disgusted to be a part of it! i hate the senselessness of human life! i hate this very life! i see only one way to justify it to destroy as many parts of the human compost as possible ‘this is the only right thing which everyone of us can do in his life, it is the only way to justify it, the only way to make this world better ‘the way of surviving and self perfection of a man is a mistake, it leads to a dead end, to destroying of all the rest, of all what is really alive'' another life: vinogradov is pictured saving a seagull from an oil slick in 2010 as a world widelife foundation volunteer ‘evolve! become aware of your real meaning and place in this world! understand that you are aliens here, you are the genetic rubbish which should not be here, rubbish which appeared accidentally, as a result of a mistake in evolution, rubbish which must be destroyed’ one image

changed the course of history 'we thank him for his life and we thank all his many friends for their love' gerry conlon left the old bailey in 1989 a free man after his conviction for the guildford pub bombings was quashed following an appeal alex attwood, sdlp stormont assembly member for the area, paid tribute to him 'he'd given an awful lot but yet had so much more to give,' mr attwood said

supplying the ira with the explosives for the bombs but all those involved protested their innocence and after years of campaigning their convictions were overturned in october 1989 the court of appeal quashed the sentences of the guildford four after they had served 14 years behind bars, amid doubts raised about the police evidence against them an investigation into the case by avon and somerset police found serious flaws in the way surrey police handled the case emerging from the court of appeal a free man, mr conlon declared: ''i have been in prison for something i did not do i am totally innocent 'the maguire seven are innocent let's hope the birmingham six are freed' in july 2000 the prime minister tony blair became the first senior politician to apologise to the guildford four the case file concerning the guildford four remains classified under the official secrets act and can be remained sealed for the next 45 years in a letter sent to paul hill's wife one of the american kennedy clan he wrote: 'there were miscarriages of justice in your husband's case, and the cases of those convicted with him i am very sorry indeed that this should have happened' giuseppe conlon died in prison in 1980, still protesting his innocence, and never saw his son freed in june 1991 giuseppe's sentence was posthumously overturned by the court of appeal along with those of the maguires the birmingham six also had their convictions overturned on appeal in 1991 although the guildford four scandal has been known for 30 years the case files remain classified along with the birmingham six the material associated with the investigation and prosecution is held under the official secrets act where it can remain shut to the public for 75 years mr conlon in recent years took up the cause of a number of dissident republicans jailed in northern ireland including marian price she was found guilty of offences linked to paramilitaries including providing a phone used by the real ira hit squad that murdered two british soldiers at the massereene barracks in co antrim in 2009 he insisted his approach was not one of political motivation but for the right of people to have a fair trial and the right for justice to be seen to be done in public ireland's foreign affairs minister, eamon gilmore, also extended his condolences 'i am saddened to hear of the death of gerry conlon and send my condolences to his family and friends 'mr conlon suffered a grave miscarriage of justice along with his father, giuseppe, paul hill, carol richardson and paddy armstrong 'in later years gerry drew from his experiences to campaign on behalf of others with the group miscarriages of justice organisation 'his loss will be felt both within the community in west belfast and across

google has begun discussions with most of the world's top automakers in a bid to get self driving cars on the road by 2020 'we'd be remiss not to talk to the biggest auto manufacturers they've got a lot to offer,' chris urmson, director of google's self driving car project, said those manufacturers, he said, include general motors co, ford motor co, toyota motor corp, daimlerag and volkswagen ag scroll down for video google is talking to car giants including general motors co, ford motor co, toyota motor corp, daimlerag and volkswagen ag in a bid to bring self driving cars to the road in 2020 'for us to jump in and say that we can do this better, that's arrogant,' urmson said google has not determined whether it will build its own self driving vehicles or function more as a provider of systems and software to established vehicle manufacturers google's self driving prototype cars, he said, were built in detroit by engineering and specialty manufacturing company roush gm is open to working with google on self driving cars, jon lauckner, gm's chief technology officer, said on monday urmson's expectation that the first fully autonomous vehicles will be production ready within five years mirrors the view expressed a day earlier by another silicon valley entrepreneur, elon musk, chief executive of tesla motors inc musk, who spoke tuesday at the automotive news world congress conference, said he expects the lack of clear federal regulations covering self driving cars could delay their introduction until 2022 or 2023 urmson, however, said his google colleagues 'don't see any particular regulatory hurdles' google has been briefing the national highway traffic safety administration, the chief us auto regulator, 'from early on in our program,' urmson said 'the worst thing we could do is surprise them' urmson said google is developing and refining self driving systems and components with such auto parts suppliers as continental ag, robert bosch, zf and lg electronics google's prototype cars use microprocessors made by nvidia corp, a silicon valley chipmaker that also supplies mercedes benz and other automakers google has already adapted cars to include its self driving technology continental said it began discussions in 2012 about supplying parts for google's self driving car google asked the german supplier to provide tires, some electronics and other components, according to samir salman, chief executive of continental's nafta region google shortly will begin deploying a test fleet of fully functioning prototypes of its pod like self driving car, which dispenses with such familiar automotive parts as steering wheel, brakes and accelerator pedal while each of the google prototypes will have a 'test driver' on board, the cars have no provision for human intervention in steering or braking google's prototype two seater 'bubble' cars have buttons to begin and end the drive, but no other controls an on board computer uses data from sensors, including radar, a laser and cameras, to make turns and negotiate its way around pedestrians and other vehicles under the vision unveiled by google, passengers might set their destination by typing it into a map or using commands the cars are also expected to be electric, capable of going 100 miles (160 km) before needing to be recharging the front of the vehicle has a soft foam like material where a traditional bumper would be and a more flexible windscreen, in an attempt to be safer for pedestrians the prototypes are restricted to speeds of 25mph (40 km/h) and the ability to self drive will depend on specifically designed google road maps tested on the company’s current fleet of vehicles but ultimately the vehicles will be faster and will be able to use google's extended maps service, using gps technology to locate the vehicle’s exact position on an electronic map a combination of radar, lasers and cameras sitting on top of the roof give the car a 360 degree ‘view’, with sensors linked to computer software able to ‘see’ and identify people, cars, road signs and markings and traffic lights urmson suggested the no frills look of the google prototypes, a far cry from the opulent appearance of the self driving f015 concept vehicle unveiled last week by mercedes, does not necessarily reflect the final design for production he described the google prototype as 'a practical, near term testing platform' that will evolve over time 'airliners today don't look like the wright brothers' flyer' of 100 years ago, he said urmson said self driving cars represent a 'transformative' moment in the evolution of transportation, an opportunity to extend motoring to blind, elderly and disabled persons who otherwise could not drive 'you're really changing the relationship you have with transportation you're changing what it means to get around' regarding google's desire to partner with traditional automakers and suppliers, urmson said detroit is more innovative than is sometimes acknowledged automakers are 'doing something incredibly complicated' 'you look at a car and people forget just how much magic there is in that thing'

been called the hardest rock climb in the world: a free climb of el capitan, the largest monolith of granite in the world kevin jorgeson of california, wearing green, and 36 year old tommy caldwell, wearing blue, near the summit of el capitan the men have been 'free climbing' to the 3,000 foot summit for 17 days, meaning they don't use climbing aids other than ropes only to prevent deadly falls el capitan: the courageous pair were closing in on the top of the 3,000 foot peak and if all goes as planned, should complete their climb this afternoon the two climbers balance on a razor thin ledge during the climb of the momentous el capitan which has tested their endurance to the very limits the dawn wall of el capitan is divided into 32 climbing pitches, which are varying lengths of rock that the climbers are trying to master with only their hands and feet the wall has been scaled before, first by legendary climber warren harding in 1970, but never before without climbing tools caldwell and jorgeson had reached the final 11 pitches on tuesday after working their way past some of the toughest stretches on the rock jorgeson struggled for several days last week on difficult pitch 15, at one point being forced to rest for two days while the skin on his fingers healed after being ripped off by razor sharp ledges the two climbers are using safety ropes in case of falls, and using ropes and other tools to move back and forth from their campsite perched high on the rock because the warmth of the day can cause their hands and feet to perspire, the two often start climbing at dusk

been updating social media during the two weeks that they have made their historic ascent several dozen people, including relatives of the climbers, and about two dozen photographers, were gathered in the meadow looking up at the face, which is called the dawn wall 'i feel like the most proud person in the world right now,' said caldwell's 39 year old sister sandy van nieuwenhuyzen ms van nieuwenhuyzen, of rochester, minnesota, said she can't wait to hug her younger brother 'i'm just going to hug just hug no words necessary,' she said 'it's such a big moment that a congratulatory hug is going to be very soothing to my big sister soul' they started on december 27 and have been free climbing, a technique that shuns climbing aids other than harnesses and ropes to prevent deadly falls the world has been watching the pair's grueling half mile journey up the peak's dawn wall route but clayton says the men won't give media interviews at the top they plan to discuss the grueling climb on thursday kevin jorgeson, pictured wtih his girlfriend jacqui, who is anxiously waiting for him at the top becca caldwell (right), who is married to tommy caldwell, is also on the ground with their toddler son throughout the climb, both men have needed to take rest days to wait for their skin to heal they used tape and even superglue to help with the process at one point, caldwell set an alarm to wake him every four hours to apply a special lotion to his throbbing hands they also took physical punishment when their grip would slip, pitching them into long, swinging falls that left them bouncing off the rock face the tumbles, which they called 'taking a whipper,' ended in startling jolts from their safety ropes eric jorgeson, kevin jorgeson's father, told kgo tv that his son has always been a climber and watching him fulfill a long time dream makes him proud 'he climbed everything he could think of it made us nervous early on as parents, but we got used to it,' the father said 'it was more other parents saying, ''hey, your son is at the top of a backstop''' the two started climbing el capitan (there are more than 100 routes to the top) when kevin jorgeson turned 15, and it has been a birthday tradition ever since becca caldwell, who is married to tommy caldwell, is also on the ground with their toddler son and has been blogging about her excitement as she prepares to reunite with her husband the climbers are pictured on monday as they inched towards the summit the first climber reached its summit in 1958, and there are roughly 100 routes up to the top

hsbc has been accused of racism after it closed down accounts held by high profile muslim groups including two charities and a mosque the cordoba foundation and ummah welfare trust (uwt), along with the finsbury park mosque in north london, were sent letters, some without explanation, informing them the high street bank would stop offering them their services despite insisting that the account closures were 'absolutely not based on race or religion', the multi national corporation has been condemned for allegedly singling out muslims and prominent figures have called for a boycott scroll down for video controversial: hsbc has told a number of high profile muslim organisations, including the finsbury park mosque in north london, that it will be closing down their accounts activist anas altikriti, the chief executive of the cordoba foundation, said that he met a 'wall of silence' after he was told the account he held with his wife and two sons for 30 years would be shut down the 45 year old, who was born in baghdad and came to britain as a young child, said he opened an account with the midland bank now part of hsbc as a teenager with just a £10 note he said he was angered by the failure of the bank to give an explanation for its action 'i am angered because of the wall of silence and the tone of the letter it is difficult to take as i regard myself as a law abiding citizen who tries to make things better in conflicts around the world and tries to promote peace and dialogue,' he said he flew to baghdad in late 2005 to secure the release of british peace campaigner norman kember, who was being held hostage in the country mr kember, along with two canadians held hostage, were eventually released in 2006 after 117 days in captivity as the result of a british led military operation he added: 'when you are left with no explanation, you are left to speculate, from the whole context of the other organisations that have been targeted, i would speculate that it is because of my activism either for gaza or for the palestinians 'i have also been vocal in my attacks on the governments of saudi arabia and united arab emirates regarding their stand on the military coup in egypt' allegations: the bank have said the decisions are 'absolutely not based on race or religious grounds' last week, the north london based finsbury park mosque, once run by hate preacher abu hamza, was notified of the decision to close their account on september 22 trustee khalid oumar said: 'the letters that have been sent and the letters that we received do not give any reason why the accounts were closed in the first place 'that has led us to believe that the only reason this has happened is because of an islamophobic campaign targeting muslim charities in the uk' chairman mohammed kozbar added: 'the bank didn’t even contact us beforehand didn’t give us a chance even to address their concerns 'for us it is astonishing we are a charity operating in the uk, all our operations are here in the uk and we don’t transfer any money out of the uk all our operations are funded from funds within the uk' local mp jeremy corbyn also opposed hsbc's move, saying he reckons the mosque has turned over a new leaf after now convicted terrorist hamza was removed meanwhile, the uwt was told its account will be closed after two months in a letter from the bank dated july 22, in which hsbc said: 'provision of banking services to ummah welfare trust now falls outside of our risk appetite' registered with the charity commission as the amanat charity trust, uwt provides emergency relief such as food and medical supplies to conflict zones, including syria and gaza it is not the first time it has had its bank accounts shut down barclays did the same during the conflict in gaza in 2008 a statement on the bolton based charity’s website said: 'as the attacks intensify in gaza and innocent people continue to be killed, hsbc bank has issued a two month notice to ummah welfare trust to close down its accounts condemnation: the bank was also criticised on twitter, with one user accusing them of discrimination frustrated: another user said she would take action of her own following the allegations opposition: shaykh muhammad ahmad, a trustree from the ummah welfare trust, has called for its supporters to join a campaign to boycott hsbc 'this is similar to what barclays did to ummah welfare trust during the previous gaza war in 2008 a notice then was also served for the charity to close its accounts 'ummah welfare trust reassures supporters that, in response, the charity will increase its support to the orphans, widows and injured civilians in gaza through its other bank accounts' trustee shaykh muhammad ahmad, in a video statement on the site, also called on its supporters to join in a 'campaign to boycott hsbc' the bank was also criticised on twitter nav abbasi said: 'hsbc is a racist organisation discriminating against people another user, writing under the name misteclatmer, added: 'hsbc are a bunch of racists' some hsbc customers have even decided to voluntarily close their accounts in protest at the controversial new policy sarah chowdhury said: 'no need for a letter, hsbc i’ll close my account myself' an hsbc spokesman said: 'we do not discuss relationships we may or may not have with a customer, nor confirm whether an individual or business is, or has been a customer in general terms, decisions to end a customer relationship are not taken lightly, but are absolutely not based on the race or religion of a customer 'discrimination against customers on grounds of race or religion is immoral, unacceptable and illegal, and hsbc has comprehensive rules and policies in place to ensure race or religion are never factors in the decisions we make'

every bride wants to look perfect on their wedding day and it seems angelina jolie is no exception but will she really go as far as to have surgery to remove bulging veins in her arms? that's the claim made by us magazine national enquirer who report that the actress 'wants to look as beautiful as possible when she walks down the aisle this summer' to tie the knot with long term partner brad pitt angelina is regularly voted one of the most beautiful women in the world but an 'insider' told the magazine the oscar winner 'has always had a complex about how her veins jut out' bridal perfection: a us tabloid states angelina jolie wants to be rid of the jutting veins in her arms ahead of her wedding to brad pitt they said: 'she never had an incentive to do anything about it until now she's chosen a sleeveless gown for her wedding day, and the last thing she wants is to be looking like a freak in the photographs' it's is unlikely there will be much chance of that when the 38 year old marries brad, 50, with whom she has six children but the magazine claim she's so keen to 'tidy up' her appearance for the big day she will consider surgery the other option would be for the slim star to gain weight so the protruding veins were less obvious but the source said 'that’s not an option to her' according to an 'insider' the actress, pictured here with brad pitt and their son maddox, has always had a 'complex' about her veiny arms and the wedding has finally given her an incentive to do something about it 'if she took the time to bulk up, everything in her life – including the toll all the weight loss has taken on her body – would fall into place but angie's just too busy to eat she’s also convinced that she needs to stay super skinny to maintain her sex appeal that leaves her no option but surgery to tidy up those veins,' they said endovenous laser treatment is frequently used to reduce the appearance of unsightly varicose veins a catheter is inserted into the troublesome vein and a laser is passed through that which then delivers short bursts of energy that heat up the vein and seal it closed blood no longer pumps through it and so it disappears what complex? sceptics point out that if angelina is so paranoid about her arms, why does she often wear sleeveless gowns on the red carpet? spire healthcare offer the treatment in the uk on varicose veins in the leg for a 'guide price' of £1,765 they state the loss of the treated vein is not damaging because 'after treatment the blood in the faulty veins will be diverted to other normal veins in order to make its way back to the heart' keith rose a venous specialist at cosmetics surgery provider myacouk and courthouse clinics told mailonline: 'endovenous laser therapy is an established minimally invasive technique for the treatment of varicose veins in the lower limbs 'long term studies have shown that the results are as good as, or better than open surgery and the technique is recommended by nice as the first choice for varicose veins in the leg 'evla for veins in the arm is a novel use for this technology and there are very few clinicians offering this procedure in the uk' numerous celebrity websites have been quick to dismiss the report that angelina would consider such treatment on her arms gossipcopcom points out that the national enquirer 'regularly publishes and spreads outrageous and false stories about jolie's health' and it's 'ridiculous' to believe the actress has a complex about her arms when she 'frequently makes major public appearances in arm baring outfits' meanwhile celebdirtylaundrycom states that while angelina has a track record of having surgery for medical reasons after she had a mastectomy last year to prevent breast cancer, they believe she wouldn't have cosmetic surgery because it's 'fraught with risks, and i doubt she's willing to take them' endovenous laser treatment involves having a catheter inserted into your vein and using an ultrasound scan to guide it into the correct position a tiny laser is passed through the catheter and positioned at the top of your varicose veinthe laser delivers short bursts of energy that heat up the vein and seal it closed the laser is slowly pulled along the vein using the ultrasound scan to guide it and allowing the entire length of the vein to be closedendovenous laser treatment is carried out under local anaesthetic after the procedure you may feel some tightness in your legs and the affected areas may be bruised and painful nerve injury is also possible, but it's usually only temporary information according to wwwnhsuk

judges at the yugoslav war crimes tribunal have controversially overturned the convictions of two croat generals for crimes committed against serbian civilians the decision has sparked an outcry in serbia where politicans accused the court of ‘selective justice’ deputy prime minister rasim ljajic condemned the ruling, saying the tribunal had ‘lost all its credibility’ amid warnings the ruling raised questions about the handling of cases in the hague and could bring into the open the thinly concealed animosity between the two balkan neighbours controversial: judges have overturned the convictions of ante gotovina (left) and mladen markac (right) for crimes committed against serbian civilians the decision has been met with anger in serbia ‘what happened (in the court) is a testimony to the selective justice which is worse than any injustice,’ he declared the decision, by a 3 2 majority in the five judge appeals chamber, is one of the most significant reversals in the court’s 18 year history and overturns a verdict that dealt a blow to croatia’s self image as a victim of atrocities, rather than a perpetrator, during the balkan wars in the 1990s neither ante gotovina nor mladen markac showed any emotion at the decision, but their supporters in the court’s packed public gallery cheered and clapped as presiding judge theodor meron ordered both men freed immediately gotovina and markac were sentenced to 24 and 18 years respectively in 2011 for crimes, including murder and deportation judges ruled both men were part of a criminal conspiracy led by former croat president franjo tudjman to expel serbs no credibility: deputy prime minister rasim ljajic condemned the ruling but the appeals judges said prosecutors failed to prove the existence of such as conspiracy, effectively clearing croatia’s entire wartime leadership of war crimes in the operation known as operation storm some 600 serbs were killed and more than 200,000 were driven from their homes during the operation when croat forces retook the krajina region gotovina’s and markac’s convictions were one of the few at the tribunal set up in 1994 to punish perpetrators of atrocities against serb civilians gotovina is especially popular among croatian nationalists the charismatic former soldier fought in the french foreign legion in the 1980s and spent four years on the run from justice before being captured in the canary islands in december 2005 the verdicts against the two generals had triggered anti western sentiments among nationalist croatians ahead of the country’s planned european union entry in july 2013 after the convictions last year, thousands of croatian war veterans massed in zagreb and ripped eu flags and denounced croatia’s leaders who have made eu membership their goal yesterday there was jubilation in the croat capital zagreb where thousands of people many dressed as war veterans burst into applause after the verdict was announced ‘our generals are heroes because they risked their lives to save our country and liberate the people,’ student andjela anic, 26, said but in belgrade, the serbian capital, the acquittals enraged hard line opponents of the un court in who accuse its judges of anti serb bias a kangaroo court, they say, whose main aim was to vilify and convict serbs serbian president tomislav nikolic said : ‘it is now quite clear the tribunal has made a political decision and not a legal ruling the ruling will not contribute to the stabilisation of the situation in the region and will open old wounds’

my husband alex and i almost split up before we’d even moved in together but it wasn’t over an affair or doubts about the relationship it was over something far more serious — clutter more specifically, it was a garden gnome that almost did for us that and a lamp made of a crab suspended in plastic i know what you’re thinking, and you’re right; these are undeniably weird objects, which is why i had shoved them into a box marked ‘charity shop’ and told alex they had to go pronto cue a blistering row; the first skirmish in a war that began when we moved in together almost 13 years ago and continues to this day, even at the ripe old ages of 45 (me) and 47 (him) scroll down for video christina hopkinson and her husband, alex, almost split up before they'd even moved in together because they couldn't agree on which possessions they should be keeping i thought we were the only ones, but a recent survey found that couples have an average of 32 rows over clutter in their first year of cohabitation apparently, london couples, like us, squeezed together in flats the size of bath tubs, argue about it once a week the survey estimated we throw out stuff worth £240 in that first year, which adds up to quite a few tasteless table lamps and freaky garden gnomes though i’d have been thrilled if it had only been £240 worth by the time we’d got rid of his vast orange armchairs that looked like they had been lifted from the starship enterprise, and my grandmother’s old sewing machine, our haul surely added up to a lot more the problem was, on deciding to live together, i wanted us to start with a clean slate — preferably one of those posh ones you serve cheese on — while alex, ironically a divorce lawyer, wanted all his old stuff to come with him christina (pictured) says that 13 years later they still can't find a happy medium when it comes to the storage situation in their home these were the remnants of his former life, he said, and precisely the things that make a house a home but there are limits, and mine don’t stretch very far it was when i suggested he bin the commemorative bottle of theakston old peculier ale, given to him in 1988 for his 21st, that he finally snapped we’d lived together for a week ‘you’re trying to erase my past,’ he wailed as i eyed up his collection of 40 identical plain white work shirts one shirt is necessary, two offers choice — but 40? really! ‘but all of this stuff has sentimental value,’ he protested ‘just as much as that box of diaries and letters you insist on keeping’ i pointed threateningly to an ornamental silver banana ‘yes,’ he said, ‘even that’ the banana an ex girlfriend had bought for him for christmas 20 years ago still sits smugly on our kitchen windowsill it was their constant arguing that prompted christina to write the book the pile of stuff at the bottom of the stairs in 2011 ‘fine,’ i yelled, ‘i’ll burn my old diaries and letters if you just get rid of those cowboy boots you never, ever wear’ actually, we were both suffering delusions of grandeur — he that his objects were valuable family heirlooms, me that my memoirs and letters would one day be pored over by historians not that i was innocent of other clutter, either alex pointed to my collection of uneaten vitamins and half used face serums; to the unused kettle bell and weights; to the fitness dvds still in cellophane — all hoarded more in hope than expectation the things we refused to part with represented the gulf between our dreams and reality alex had the roller blades and the tent for glastonbury because he yearned for his carefree youth i had the self help videos and the size 8 dress because i yearned for a better me it was this mess that inspired me to write my novel the pile of stuff at the bottom of the stairs a few years ago, about a woman driven to the brink of divorce by the rising tide of untidiness at home i thought it was exaggerated, but this survey by the big yellow self storage company — who have a vested interest in resolving marital arguments about clutter, but i still believe their findings — suggests my novel nailed the problem they found that men typically stockpile gadgets and sports toys, while women hoard the stuff invested with emotions: cards from friends, cuddly toys from former lovers, and in my case the self improving kit that promised to deliver a shiny new life psychologists suggest we import this stuff into shared space in ways akin to animals marking territory — but using beatrix potter figurines and surf boards instead of urine for men of a certain age, i’d also mention the phenomenon which is vinyl record hoardingalex is immune, but every time i walk into a friend’s house, i hear the same complaint about the endless shelves of jam and clash and bowie records that are central to their partner’s sense of self and yet no record player ever exists in these houses christina, picturd here with her three children, william, 7, celia, 5 and lydia, 3 she says 'children are the kings of clutter' with stuff toys and overflowing wardrobes constantly an issue every couple has a hoarder and an exorcist another friend says his wife feels it’s her life’s work to throw things out, occasionally when the object is still in his hand but in my experience, the hoarder is generally the nicer half — the more tolerant and generous partner certainly that’s the case with us alex believes gifts are for keeping because you like the giver, while i have no qualms about re gifting or donating to the school tombola and if you think that first year together is bad, just wait for the arrival of babies the crisis grows exponentially, like that enormous garbage patch of plastic flotsam that’s said to be bobbing about in the middle of the pacific ocean children are the kings of clutter our three have enough animals to open a stuffed toy zoo, and a habit of growing out of clothes — some of them cute, steeped in memories and very difficult to throw away christina now has a huge underground cupboard where they keep all the excess clutter in their home i thought i’d cracked it when we moved from that first home into one with more storage now we have a huge underground cupboard, like a mini cellar — the perfect graveyard for half used tins of paint and sweaty sleeping bags but there’s something about january that reignites the clutter argument over christmas we binge on eating and buying — we stuff stomachs and houses — and come the new year i always find myself wanting to cut the fat accumulated on both it’s no coincidence that the languages of decluttering our homes and detoxing our bodies are so similar we talk about purity, purging and cleaning in both cases i want to be someone who can wear white dresses and have white sofas i want to be gwyneth paltrow is gwynnie’s mantelpiece covered in plastic tat from christmas crackers? i don’t think so the trouble is that my attempts to become a physical and domestic goddess somehow always end up with more clutter than before i ask my husband to clear out the cupboards and then find myself filling them again with things that i’m convinced will lead us to a more organised and clutter free life i once bought one of those baskets that fits onto your stairs, with the aim of using it to tidy away the kids’ stuff that migrates downstairs every day instead, it sits unused at the bottom, waiting for someone to trip over it i have an ever expanding collection of lidless tupperware boxes i also own vacuum bags for storing unused clothes that have never been filled alex would be quite right if he pointed out that i am the one bringing all the clutter into the house he’d be right, but he wouldn’t be well advised to say it i might just retaliate and chuck out those cowboy boots
13 years later their first year the pile of stuff at the bottom of the stairs christina christina
christina her husband almost split up before they'd even moved in together because of their different storage views 13 years later and they are still struggling with the same problem an average couple has 32 rows over clutter in their first year of cohabitation it was the constant battle that prompted christina to write the pile of stuff at the bottom of the stairs
his home is crammed with piles of papers, books, toys on armchairs and clothes and ornaments on every available space but arthur watson is determined to maintain the notion that a man's home is his castle and no bureaucrat can take away his possessions the 66 year old has recently been served with a council notice to clear his plymouth home of clutter because of health and safety concerns, but he has refused claiming their direction breaks the magna carta scroll down for video arthur watson has been ordered to remove rubbish and clean up his plymouth home, but the 66 year old hoarder claims the council order is breaching his rights which are enshrined in the 1215 magna carta and he should be allowed to keep hold of all of his collection mr watson claims he was visited by police and plymouth city council who had a warrant because they believed his house was a public health hazard he was then issued with an 'abatement notice' which ordered him to remove food waste and thoroughly clean his flat in estover, as well as get rid of all rubbish he told the plymouth herald: 'i think i have complied with most of that 'it just seems unnecessary, a waste of public money 'i can't see that i am a threat to public health there's no vermin here it's not unhygienic' mr watson has accused the council of breaching article 39 of the magna carta, drawn up in 1215 rooms in mr watson's flat are crammed full of his possessions, with piles of books and paper seen on sofas and chairs as well as on the floor every surface is covered with items mr watson has collected, with clothes and trinkets strewn on a bed and flags and banners on the walls the pensioner has vast piles of photographs and letters which litter the floor, shelves and tables of his home but wants to keep them all mr watson has bizarre collections including books, papers and leaflets (left) but insists he has cleaned up as directed by the council (right) this states that: 'no freeman shall be taken or imprisoned, or be disseised of his freehold, or liberties, or free customs, or be outlawed, or exiled, or any other wise destroyed; nor will we not pass upon him, nor condemn him, but by lawful judgment of his peers, or by the law of the land we will sell to no man, we will not deny or defer to any man either justice or right' 'disseised' means 'removed' and mr watson claims this covers the possessions in his home, and said there had been no legal hearing of his case and his rights are therefore being breached the rooms of his flat are packed with items, with clocks on chairs and banners and number plates on the walls in the kitchen dozens of pots, pans and plates are stacked around the sink, with no space on any surface the pensioner disputes claims his home and vast array of hoarded items could be a health and safety hazard and said it is hygienic and safe mr watson lives in a flat in plymouth where he has filled rooms fit to bursting with items he has collected including books and papers books, papers, bags and signs abound throughout the home and were seen by environmental health officers who were 'not pleased' with it some rooms are covered with clothes and dressing up items  (left) while the kitchen (right) is stacked high with pots, pans and plates under normal council rules householders are given a set period of time to clear up their property until police may be called to enforce it plymouth city council said an abatement notice may be issued by environmental health officers when they are concerned about the hygiene and cleanliness of a property a spokesman said: 'the council may give the householder a period of time with a deadline, in which to clean their house 'if the householder fails to improve in the period of time given by the court, the council will take further action and in some instances, involve the police where necessary' previously researchers from the institute of living, hartford, connecticut, found that people with hoarding disorder have abnormal activity in regions of their brains which affect decision making and can lead them to choose not to throw items away

a photographer who travelled into siberia to capture the northern lights risked his life by equipping himself just a sword to protect him from wolves russian ruslan akhemtsafin trekked into the remote far eastern siberian taiga region to capture his images last week braving temperatures as low as minus 50c as well as bears, wolves and frostbite ruslan waited for several nights to take the perfect picture russian ruslan akhemtsafin trekked into the remote far eastern siberian taiga region to capture his images last week ruslan has explained that he regularly gets frostbite on his face, legs and fingers while waiting for the perfect shot, but said he was now used to the freezing conditions it gets so cold in the wilderness he even designed a special fur coast for his camera to protect it from the harsh conditions the sensational images show the natural phenomenon at its majestic best, with swirls of green, red and purple reaching out into the cold night sky displays of the northern lights occur when solar particles enter the earth’s atmosphere and on impact emit burning gases that produce green, yellow and blue coloured lights the scientific term for the lights is the aurora borealis the traditional places for optimum northern lights viewings are the northern reaches of scandinavia, finland, iceland, canada and alaska ruslan followed information about the weather conditions in the days before he took his photographs to give himself the best chance of capturing the images braving temperatures as low as minus 50c as well as bears, wolves and frostbite ruslan waited for several nights to take the perfect picture displays of the northern lights occur when solar particles enter the earth’s atmosphere and on impact emit burning gases that produce green, yellow and blue coloured lights the lights themselves can only be seen between september and march each year they are notoriously unpredictable and cannot be forecast in advance rusland, who lives in the village of aikhal in yakutia, said: ‘i love photography and i love nature ‘so, for me it is an ideal situation where i live as it's a great region surrounded by fantastic nature and i can capture moments like the northern lights and share them with people ‘photography for me is when my soul tries to reach something so beautiful that you can't describe it with words, but can you capture it, and then share it ‘it's never about money, it's about this moment of beauty that i've been lucky to witness’ the 37 year old father of one is an amateur photographer and he has a normal full time day job working as an engineer at a nearby diamond mine he was brought up in the aikhal area having moved there from kazakhstan with his parents and brother 30 years ago ruslan has been taking photographs since he was a schoolboy using his pentax mz 30 film camera in 2001 he began trying to capture images of the night sky he said: ‘my heart demanded much better results than what i was achieving with its limited abilities though the traditional places for optimum northern lights viewings are the northern reaches of scandinavia, finland, iceland, canada and alaska ‘four years later, in 2005, i bought my first amateur nikon d70, which brought me a step further to what i wanted ‘i had been dreaming about a camera that would allow me take pictures of northern lights within split seconds since the sky changes so rapidly that if you miss a moment your picture is gone ‘of course no camera is supposed to work for four, five or six hours at temperatures like 50c and below, so i have to invent some tricks ‘i cut a sleeve off an old fur coat, turned it inside out so that the fur is inside, and then cut holes for the lenses, tripod, viewfinder and lcd monitor ruslan has been taking photographs since he was a schoolboy using his pentax mz 30 film camera in 2001 he began trying to capture images of the night sky ruslan travelled into siberia to capture the northern lights, risking his life by equipping himself samurai sword to protect him from wolves ‘that helps to protect the camera, and it gives a bit of extra warmth to my hands ‘taking pictures of the northern lights is a bit of a sport you have to follow information about solar flashes and then possible days of the sun's winds reaching earth 'on the day you also monitor any rise in this activity and then finally rush with all the equipment to the shooting area ‘i do get frostbite on my face, legs and fingers while waiting for the next shot, but i am quite used to it’ being alone in the taiga which is closer geographically to the united states than it is to the russian capital moscow can have its dangers and ruslan ensures he is armed, for security shooting the northern lights is extremely difficult as the sky changes within a split second, meaning many are unable to take the perfect shot the 37 year old father of one is an amateur photographer and he has a normal full time day job working as an engineer at a nearby diamond mine it gets so cold in the wilderness he even designed a special fur coast for his camera to protect it from the harsh conditions he said: ‘i have always had to carry hunting knives when going on trips in case i meet any wolves so far our paths have never crossed ‘i am against killing animals but these days i carry a small samurai sword, called a vakidzasi, which i bought on a website that specialises in japanese and korean made weapons ‘i bought the most expensive one they had and it was just like they promised, so it cuts bottles and logs 'the sword weighs a bit more than a kilogram, but it's worth carrying it around as it gives me a feeling of security and confidence while i am alone in taiga ‘my family supports me in my passion and applauds my little victories, when i catch a very good shot so i am a very happy man indeed’

the united kingdom could be broken up on the basis of labour voters rushing to back independence, 15 years after tony blair set the country on the road to devolution the former prime minister has been conspicuous by his absence from the referendum campaign trail, despite being born in edinburgh but senior tories blame him for failing to predict the rise of nationalism, and say the battle to save the union will be won or lost in what used to be rock solid labour areas scroll down for video blame: conservatives say tony blair paved the way for the rise of the snp and the independence movement campaign: independence supporters have put a big yes sign on the hills overlooking edinburgh it was the new labour landslide in 1997 which swept the conservatives out of scotland and paved the way for the rise of alex salmond’s snp mr blair supported devolution, which was overwhelmingly backed by scots in a referendum the scottish parliament then opened in 1999, to the obvious delight of mr salmond who said it was a major step on the road to total separation in the 2011 elections to the scottish parliament, the snp secured a surprise overall majority, with mr salmond declaring he had a mandate for a referendum on independence which could not be ignored by westminster mr blair has avoided campaigning for a no vote as he knows he remains a divisive character north of the border in the wake of the iraq war leader: alex salmond rose to power in scotland when mr blair was serving as prime minister close: a new daily mail poll shows the no campaign just four points ahead of yes debate: graffiti has appeared on the walls of buildings in scotland arguing for a yes vote in his autobiography, the former labour leader claimed he was to blame for the party's humiliating defeat by the snp in 2007, and the nationalists have repeatedly described him as 'toxic' but many of those now battling to save the 307 year old union in the final hours of the campaign say mr blair must shoulder the blame former conservative prime minister sir john major has blamed labour for the growing threat of scottish independence – claiming the party had spent years attacking the conservatives and westminster sir john said labour and the snp ‘have fed a divisive narrative that has bitten deep, ignoring the revolution in scottish living standards brought about, in large part, by conservative policies’ he added in an article in the times last week: ‘it would be ironic indeed if scotland voted for separation, and labour lost all its significant representation in the house of commons if this comes to pass, no one should weep for them’ creation: the scottish parliament, pictured, was supported by tony blair when it was found in 1999 celebration: mr blair with donald dewar, the first scottish first minister, after the referendum on scottish devolution in september 1997 a new survation opinion poll for the mail shows that the race is still too close to call the headline results show that 441 per cent of scots plan to back independence, up from 424 per cent in a comparable poll from last week support for a no vote remains virtually static at 477 per cent, with 83 per cent undecided overall, this points to a final result of 52 per cent no and 48 per cent yes but alarmingly for the no camp, the poll indicates a shift back to yes among labour voters, who may decide the outcome while 91 per cent of those who voted conservative in the 2011 holyrood elections are backing no, just 60 per cent of labour voters plan to do the same labour’s big beasts like gordon brown and john reid have been deployed to try to win back their supporters to the no cause but mr blair’s only recent intervention has been during a speech in ukraine he said: 'obviously i hope that scotland votes to stay part of the united kingdom' contrast: gordon brown and john reid are pictured on the campaign trail ahead of the referendum speaking at a security conference in the ukrainian capital of kiev at the weekend, he added: 'to rip up the alliance between our countries would not be sensible, politically, economically or even emotionally' born in edinburgh, mr blair went to school in durham before returning to scotland to attend edinburgh's fettes college his father was born in yorkshire but grew up in glasgow in his final speech to a scottish labour conference in oban in 2006, he famously said: 'i detest this narrow nationalism not because it engenders fear but because it squanders hope' ex chancellor alistair darling, leader of better together, has previously called for his former boss to play his part in a 'call to arms' to keep the uk together but mr blair has been reluctant to speak out, in stark contrast with his successor, gordon brown, who has returned to frontline politics to fight for the union downing street insists there is little david cameron can do to persuade more people to the no cause ’there is a massive labour effort on the ground,’ said a source ’we are leaving the field open to labour almost all tories are voting no there is literally nothing more we can do ’labour have got to swamp the area’

there is a football stadium in the tiny tunisian settlement hammamet, hometown of lazhar khedira, where the grass is long and dry and the nets have holes in them the goalposts are square, not round, dating them to before 1987 when they were banned by fifa there are three white walls surrounding three of the sides and a wire mesh fence behind one of the goals tall trees grow at one end and the hum of a busy main road nearby can be heard top of the world: sami khedira is a world cup winner with germany and could now be set for arsenal german bond: mesut ozil is believed to have spoken to the real madrid midfielder about the london life 'this is the stadium where sami khedira got famous,' one local recalls between the age of 10 and 15, this is where world cup winner khedira, born in stuttgart to a tunisian father and german mother, doris, would often come to play when he visited although he has always represented the german national side, from under 17s through to winning 51 caps for the seniors, tunisia is a large part of his life khedira explains: 'although hammamet is not my home, it is the hometown of my father so it is also important for me 'my entire family lives there my grandma and my grandpa live there as well as seven aunts and one uncle i don't even know how many cousins i have there 'hammamet for me is a beautiful place for vacation i really love to go there and visit my family i like to relax on the beaches and to get away from my daily routine it is the perfect place for a retreat, where i can feel at home' on the move: khedira has not signed a new deal at real madrid and is set to leave breakthrough: khedira started out at hometown club stuttgart in germany khedira would also hone his football skills on the beaches when he would go on holiday there as a teenager he joined stuttgart's youth team in 1995, aged just eight, so by the time he was visiting his father's family at 15 he was already a star in hammamet it did not stop him returning to play with his peers on that pitch with overgrown bushes peering over the walls 'it was a great honour for our guys to learn from him,' the same local recounts 'he is very friendly and generous, that's why people like him in particular they love his kindness' khedira was a local hero, but back in germany he was fast becoming a star, too at stuttgart he won the bundesliga title in 2007 then captained the germany under 21 side which won the 2009 european championship, beating england 4 0 in the final it was a team which included manuel neuer, benedikt howedes, jerome boateng, mats hummels and mesut ozil, who would all also go on to win the world cup in 2014 swoop: arsenal have already signed alexis sanchez for £30million and are considering khedira for £20m a year later he earned a move to real madrid where he has since won a la liga title, two spanish cups and the champions league after winning the world cup, khedira's stock is at an all time high and his refusal to sign a new deal at real, with only a year left to run on his contract, has meant they are willing to cash in arsenal see him as the ideal man to plug the gap in their midfield arsene wenger's side is crammed with attack minded midfielders and forwards – alex oxlade chamberlain, ozil, rosicky, alexis sanchez, santi cazorla, jack wilshere, mikel arteta – but lack a defensive midfield linchpin mathieu flamini did a job there last season but he is not world class if an agreement can be met, that humble man who grew up playing on a tatty, battered pitch in hammamet might well be the perfect fit

they have lain unseen for centuries – a carefully arranged group of skeletons deep beneath what became one of the busiest areas of london millions of feet have tramped unwittingly above them through the years; thousands of tons of earth and rubble concealed their grave but yesterday it was hoped that the dna within the nine sets of remains would unlock a mystery that has baffled and divided medical minds for generations: what caused the black death in 1348? carefully laid out skeletons thought to be from a 14th century burial ground that have been discovered in london during work on the £148billion crossrail project don walker, an osteologist from the museum of london's archaeology department, inspects a skeleton they were discovered during excavation work for the £148billion crossrail project, currently carving a subterranean path across london they were more than 8ft below a road between farringdon and barbican tube stations, leading internet wags to suggest they probably died waiting for a circle line train in fact the bodies are believed to have been among the 15million britons who died when the plague swept through europe sizing things up: the skeletons were carefully laid out in rows eight feet beneath the surface archaeologists from the museum of london's archaeology department work on uncovering the bodies emergency mass graves were dug, but the corpses were not simply thrown in men and women were placed side by side in uniform rows, often with hands folded across the torso a similar skeleton formation was found in the 1980s at nearby smithfield, and as many as 50,000 might have been buried in the area over three years crossrail lead archaeologist jay carver said: 'this is a highly significant discovery and at the moment we are left with many questions that we hope to answer men and women were placed side by side in uniform rows, often with hands folded across the torso the skeletons were more than 8ft below a road between farringdon and barbican tube stations dna experts are working with archaeologists at the farringdon site to try to identify the exact cause from bone samples 'we will be undertaking scientific tests on the skeletons to establish their cause of death, whether they were plague victims from the 14th century or later residents, how old they were and perhaps evidence of who they were 'however, at this early stage all points towards this being part of the 14th century emergency burial ground' around a third of the population of britain died in the black death estimates of how many perished in europe and elsewhere vary between 25million and 200million, making it the grimmest and most destructive pandemic in human history don walker, an osteologist from the museum of london's archaeology department, inspects evidence of a lost burial ground dating from the black death plague in 1348 hidden secrets: don walker holds the skull of one of the skeletons discovered under the streets of london dna analysis of european victims has suggested that the yersinia pestis bacterium was responsible, but many scientists believe the infection was a rapidly spreading virus now dna experts are working with archaeologists at the farringdon site to try to identify the exact cause from bone samples once analysis is complete, the skeletons will be reburied on the site or at a cemetery new discovery: scientists will take samples from the human remains to try and find out how they died delicate operation: archaeologist and site supervisor sam pfizenmaier from the museum of london's archaeology department working in a grout shaft locator: the skeletons were discovered buried underneath a road in charterhouse square in london

sitting in the casualty department of one of the best known hospitals in britain, i can’t help but notice it’s packed to the rafters yet it’s not a hectic saturday night, but a monday lunchtime at the beginning of december and everyone seems sober despite this, i struggle to find a seat, even though it is obvious i’m in deep shock and on the point of passing out in agony this is by far the worst pain i’ve ever suffered i know my upper arm is broken — i fell off a step and heard the crack — and fully expect at least a four hour wait a woman having a cigarette outside warned me as i arrived: ‘hope you’ve set aside the whole day i’ve been waiting ages!’ jenni murray (pictured) fell off a step and broke her arm, she was treated at north london's royal free hospital as i look around the crowd, i see little evidence of painful injury i ask the woman next to me what she’s come for — a headache, no less ‘no point calling the gp you can never get seen,’ she says it’s the same story with the worried looking father a few rows back with a feverish young son lying listlessly on his lap, he explains he came straight to the hospital he didn’t even think to start with his gp it’s clear evidence that casualty is becoming the first port of call whether it’s an accident, emergency or just feeling a bit poorly no wonder the staff at the royal free hospital in north london look so strained my worries about a long wait are mercifully unfounded — obviously, a genuine crisis is attended to as a priority within 20 minutes i see a triage nurse and am sent for an x ray a broken humerus is confirmed and i’m sent home wearing a sling with the hope the break is clean and will begin to mend i’m to see the consultant the following week in the fracture clinic so far, for a badly injured woman in her 60s, so good it’s been a long time since i was an emergency case it was the early nineties i’d slipped down a set of stairs and not so much broke, as demolished, my ankle i recall a quick consultation, instant admission, pins and screws and a two week stay with good care but, as i was to discover, it’s a very different story now i’ve always been a staunch supporter of the nhs, a service that was introduced just two years before my birth in 1950, and made all the difference in the world to my parents’ peace of mind for the first time in their lives, they didn’t have to worry about paying for the inoculations — polio, diphtheria and smallpox — that were now available to every child, free of charge it never occurred to me to consider private medicine as i got older i had my two sons on the nhs and received kind, attentive and sympathetic care before, during and after birth when i was diagnosed with breast cancer nearly ten years ago, i was given a speedy referral by an excellent gp and instant admission for a mastectomy into the christie hospital in manchester the surgical care was first rate and there was never a shortage of nurses to attend to me i’ve defended the nhs to any critic free health care at the point of need seems to me the very essence of a caring community ‘so what,’ i’ve said testily to people complaining about the wait in a clinic for a post operative cancer check up ‘you’re getting top class treatment for free! what have you got to whinge about?’ but now i’m worried that this precious service is in danger of imploding admittedly, my casualty experience at the royal free was faultless and, a week later, when i attend the fracture clinic, i have nothing to complain about the wait was no more than half an hour, the x ray pretty quick the consultant recommended surgery i was to be admitted on the wednesday evening and was told to get my necessary blood tests done in advance and that’s when the trouble started the blood test queue filled a large waiting room and stretched, snake like, along the corridor my number was 365 — and 210 had just been called it was two and a half hours before they got to me just as well i’d set the whole day aside wednesday came and i still had no information about when and where, or indeed if, i should turn up that evening i called admissions they hadn’t a clue i emailed the surgeon’s secretary, and at 5pm i finally had a call i was to arrive at the orthopaedic ward around 730pm they’d finally found me a bed the nurses could not have been more welcoming or attentive, but i soon learned that the chief nurse in the department had been on duty since 8am it was now going on for 830pm, and when the consultant popped by, he casually suggested she might consider going home at some point jenni was diagnosed with a broken humerus, she has long been a supporter of the nhs especially after the care she received when she was suffering from breast cancer nearly ten years ago i think the poor thing finally left around 10pm i got the impression 14 hour shifts were far from unusual the staff nurse who came to check me before lights out looked equally exhausted he was portuguese and told me he’d be the only qualified nurse on duty overnight, with the support of three or four health care assistants, in charge of 16 patients most of thursday was a blur anaesthetic, surgery, recovery and then a room on the cardiac ward to monitor me overnight because no beds were available in orthopaedics after a blissful night on morphine, i was moved to the general ward, still in the cardiac department, to be tended by a group of half a dozen nurses and health care assistants they were rushed off their feet, making sure everyone — four in my room and a number of other bays — was washed, fed, watered and taken to the toilet no patient was left wanting, but the staff looked as if they should be the ones in bed and then there was alice she was in the next bed she was in her late 70s, had suffered a heart attack and was obviously not in full control of her mental faculties she shouted constant abuse at the nurses who tried their best for her jenni admitted that her casualty experience at the royal free (pictured) was faultless and, a week later, when she attended the fracture clinic, the wait was no more than half an hour she was especially troublesome at night, so i and the other two women — a hotel proprietor from blackpool with a rare heart condition and a quiet elderly woman — didn’t get much sleep alice’s finest hour came around 3am on my fifth and final night she shouted more abuse at the nurses, insisting on getting out of bed i got up and walked to the corridor for a break and a cup of hot chocolate, when a mug flew past my ears and smashed against the wall more were thrown around the ward: alice had been saving them up, hiding them who knows where, for a major assault three huge security men didn’t know what to do as she rampaged i suggested to a distraught young nurse to call psychiatry a doctor arrived after about half an hour — it’s a huge hospital — as we all looked on in horror at the sight of alice losing it she was given a drastic chemical cosh and it worked i’m sure the young nurses are used to dealing with crises, but even they seemed shocked and at a loss to know how to deal with such violence next morning, when i woke and made my way to the loo, the blackpool woman warned me: ‘don’t go in there!’ at some point in the night, alice had managed a dirty protest in the bathroom she should never have been in a room with other patients i don’t know why she wasn’t in a room of her own shortage of beds and staff again, i guess when i left, i was discharged by a junior doctor who did not give me any paperwork to tell me what would happen next i had to ping off another email to the consultant’s secretary again to find out i needed the gp to trim stitches and should have physiotherapy after four weeks, she said i wonder how many patients leave in ignorance because they don’t know who or how to ask? i will continue to support the principle of the nhs i certainly won’t be arguing in favour of paying £5 to been seen in casualty, as some have suggested free at the point of need is what we are so proud to maintain but investment in staff is unquestionably a priority these nurses are desperate to do a good job, but there are too few of them to service the need i would plead with anyone who feels ill to make their first port of call their gp so that emergency departments can do the job they’re set up to do; deal with emergencies as for the shortage of beds, we must have effective social and convalescent care to end bed blocking and those overworked nurses? let’s stop picking holes in this magnificent service we are privileged to have at our disposal, and say a collective thank you to those working so hard ladies and gentlemen, i sincerely hope i don’t see any one of you again, for a long, long time, but you have my gratitude and admiration i hope it sustains you through tonight’s 14 hour shift alice’s name has been changed
ten years ago first jenni nhs
jenni has been a longstanding supporter of the nhs and it's treatment she says she received first rate treatment for breast cancer ten years ago however her recent trip to casualty showed her a different side to the story

the new nbc summer horror show siberia has come under vitriolic fire from none other than siberia itself the russians are taking aim at the show, which premieres tonight, for being portraying stereotypes and pretending to depict siberia when it was made in manitoba ‘in reality, this faux reality show was filmed on the other side of the world, in a canadian prairie province,’ storms the siberian times scroll down for video siberia, which premieres tonight on nbc, has been criticised by the russians for stereotyping siberia: the 'contestants', who are actual actors, of the new nbc show 'not that most viewers will realise this as they watch this negatively slanted portrayal of siberia,’ states the english language website ‘us viewers are conned into believing the action is in siberia, which is after all the name of the show’ siberia, which is likened to survivor, shows sixteen contestants being dropped off in winter time, somewhere in siberia, each trying to survive longer than the others without any equipment or food in the remote territory of tunguska their host, jonathon buckley (played by the real life jonathon buckley, former host of lifetime’s 2012 reality competition, love for sail) informs them that they need to make their way to the remains of a primitive trading outpost that was found abandoned in 1908 when they reach the settlement they discover the fires are still burning and the food is still cooking on the stoves, but all the inhabitants have vanished the mock reality series shows the participants, who are in fact actors, chasing the $500,000 prize for survival in the harsh conditions the tv show siberia shows the contestants fight for survival in the siberian tundra tunguska event: siberia was struck by falling meteor pieces on july 30, 1908 the energy of the explosion knocked over roughly 80 million trees the tv show pretends to be filmed on the site of the tunguska meteorite explosion nearly a century after the event in siberia, russia nbc and the show's us production companies are also being accused of ‘censoring’ siberians from seeing online trailers and a pilot episode which is supposedly full of thrills, spills and scare tactics when they try to look at it, russian viewers from the urals to the pacific are shown a message reading: ‘we're sorry, but the clip you selected isn't available in your location’ even though they trying to tune in from siberia the siberian times accused the show of being ‘in keeping with the us stereotype of siberia, mixed with a cocktail of hollywood horrors and then frozen in a cold war time warp' the pre publicity for the show says the participants suddenly encounter a tiger, which brings more mockery from the news website ‘it must have escaped from a canadian zoo because tunguska would be some three time zones west from the habitat of the nearest siberian tiger' the critique continues: ‘siberia's image in the world which takes another hit, just at a time when it is rightly recovering a more positive image around the world, with inward investment and foreign tourism growing significantly 'these investors and tourists come in search of the real modern siberia, unlike the makers of this tv fake' the siberian times goes on to say: ‘this clearly is of no interest to nbc and those who made this series in manitoba, namely infinity films productions in association with sierra engine television and the appropriately named welldone productions’

i wonder after decades of stardom, she is media savvy enough to know that any casual comment she makes becomes front page tabloid news jennifer aniston is jennifer aniston, and that means that anything that she says about her love life to any journalist, even someone as reputable as new york times’ frank bruni, will be later dissected and exploited' aniston has yet to respond to these comments maraini melehi then adds: 'it pains me to read the headlines that allude to her losing him tragically when she was not present during his long and difficult illness' she also reveals that she reached out to aniston after mcdonald died to see if the actress wanted any photos he had of the two back, but she never responded maraini melehi and mcdonald were married until his death in 2007 big relationships: aniston would go on to become engaged to actor justin theroux (left) and was previously married to brad pitt (right) as for mcdonald, mariana melehi, who married luca aureggi in september 2014, says, 'he would not approve of all this uninvited attention' ‘jennifer never stopped loving daniel, but things were happening very fast with her career by that time – it was just a year before she landed friends,' a source previously revealed to dailymailcom 'she’d moved to los angeles, and daniel stayed on in new york and was doing broadway ‘after dan and jen split, she went on to date and become engaged to actor tate donavan, but i don’t think she ever got over letting dan slip through her fingers’ added the source; ‘daniel was a lovely guy he was open, honest and funny, and i know jennifer really loved him the timing was just off for them i guess' in light of what’s been happening around the world, this may seem like a very trivial and superficial post this past 24 hours have been very difficult for me… i am very upset that the media is exploiting daniel’s memory in connection to jennifer aniston what is precious shines in our hearts and should not be splayed for everyone’s consumption in the media this way why now? i wonder after decades of stardom, she is media savvy enough to know that any casual comment she makes becomes front page tabloid news jennifer aniston is jennifer aniston, and that means that anything that she says about her love life to any journalist, even someone as reputable as new york times’ frank bruni, will be later dissected and exploited my heart aches to see our tragedy of losing daniel to serve the media’s hunger for sensationalism i remember how journalists often called our home to ask daniel for information about jennifer, and being the gentleman that he was, he would always decline to comment on anything at all i imagine he would be appalled to be caught up in this media circus, especially after he had found love and built a family of his own his love is part of our fabricpart of me , part of fosco, part of ondina please respect our love and especially our loss the children lost their father i lost my partner i am sorry that jennifer did not realize the treasure that was daniel when she had the chance, long before he and i met and long before he died it pains me to read the headlines that allude to her losing him tragically when she was not present during his long and difficult illness that said perhaps daniel’s gift was to teach her how to love and appreciate justin theroux i know how much daniel cared about her, and how protective he was of her that was part of what i loved about him i find it very hard to believe that she may not have married brad pitt had daniel and i not married months before as some unnamed “sources” declared to the daily mail on line after daniel died, i reached out to her to give her back all the photographs from the time they were together i never got an answer back from her please ignore the gossip and remember what is essential; the music in daniel’s heart lingers on in us, in his dear friends, his mother pat, his siblings who miss him every day, his cousins, his nieces and nephews, his colleagues, his fans, his children, and me

an australian policeman is a part of a crew that have successfully rowed across the indian ocean to break two world records and raise money for ms australia they started as a crew of seven, but after 57 days six people, including victorian tim spiteri, completed the continent to continent expedition, which is the fastest and longest rowboat crossing of the indian ocean 'there were pirates, hurricanes, our boat was hit by a 15 metre blue whale, we encountered countless tiger sharks there is nothing else the ocean could have possibly thrown at us but i actually never wanted it to end 'i wouldn't change a single one of the challenges we faced' says mr spiteri, speaking to daily mail australia from their seychelles the crew pop champagne as part of their excited celebrations as they reach the shore of seychelles, successfully completing their record breaking expedition across the indian ocean the exhausted crew upon arrival at seychelles after their almost 8600km row the crew on board the aurora, the vessel which they rowed from geraldton, western australia to the republic of seychelles, east of the south african mainland the crew included tim spiteri, leven brown, cameron bellamy, james douglas hamilton, heather rees gaunt and fiann paul dr shane usher, a 39 year old chemical engineer from melbourne, was forced to drop out halfway through the trip when he suffered serious burns after scalding himself with hot water dr usher was on hand to welcome the crew in at seychelles 'the arrival was a big event with a lot of champagne! there was a lot of happiness and relief after such a long voyage they came off the boat with a bit of a staggered walk but are all doing very well,' dr usher tells daily mail australia from seychelles australian policeman tim spiteri on the morning his expedition departed from geraldton, western australian 57 days later, his crew had successfully rowed to seychelles mr spiteri agrees that the crew are struggling to get their bearings on dry land 'we were walking down the street the other day and one of the crew fell into a pothole! after 57 days at see, you think you're walking straight but you haven't quite got a grip on how your body works' the exhausted crew are looking forward to 'a dry bed that doesn't move,' according to mr spiteri the team have lost a lot of weight during their expedition 'the problem was that we faced hurricanes, with wild waves it looks like we faced over 65 knot winds at times such extreme winds aren't characteristic of ocean rowing and it took the team a while to manage to keep their food down', explains dr usher the crew worked tirelessly, taking only two hour rests before picking up the oars again 'we rowed for two hours on and two hours off 24 hours a day, seven days a week for the entire journey you lose track of time, the physicality of it all is so painful,' said mr spiteri but the mental struggle was one of the biggest that the crew had to battle with during the trip 'it was the most torturous, treacherous, wonderful, brilliant, life changing experience,' explains mr spiteri the challenge was only made harder after the automatic steering system failed, and mr spiteri and the crew's skipper, leven brown, were both forced to manually navigate the boat 'we knew it would hurt, but the physicality of having to stand still to navigate was excruciating in the military, standing still for that period of time is used as discipline! 'it required 100 per cent concentration and it was really difficult to try and maintain course through the rain and cloud that completely obscured our vision' the aurora at sea, with the australian flag at the back of the boat used as a crucial tool to help steer and navigate vital after the automatic steering system broke down and tim spiteri and leven brown were required to manually steer for the rest of the journey mr brown, who now holds five guiness world records for ocean rowing, says the mental challenge is more arduous than the physicality of rowing 'it's intensely physical but the relentless routine and the sheer scale of the obstacle that you have to overcome is the hardest you have to constantly be at the top of your game however, mr brown says the team must remain level headed at all times even when the crew came face to face with pirates 'there's far too much to do, you don't have time for nerves on the ocean it's later when you look back on the brush with storms and pirates that you sit down and have a deep sigh!' said mr brown 'a boat with no markings or fishing equipment came alongside us, which indicates that you're dealing with pirates they asked us to stop but there was no way we were giving up that easily we were 200 miles away from our destination 'we just had to bluff we had no equipment on board but we said we were a royal levy q boat waiting for royal navy and would open fire they high tailed it out of there, it was absolutely amazing! a photo taken by crew member shane usher at beautiful seychelles, an island off the coast of south africa, where the crew is happily relaxing and enjoying a well deserved break after their successful 8600km row excited friends and family wait for their loved ones to arrive at seychelles after their 57 day expedition across the indian ocean shane usher, who was evacuated halfway through the row after suffering burns, waiting at seychelles for the crew to arrive on august 8 mr brown says the inability to control your environment is a liberating experience 'i row oceans because i have never experienced the same sense of freedom and adventure on land as i did in those moments on the boat' 'there are sharks all around you, blues whales it's a beautiful environment the ocean is one of the last great wildernesses 'we saw a couple of great whites from our tiny little boat you have a primal reaction: fight or flight' a 15 metre whale came too close for comfort, causing damage to the team's boat 'it was as if the whale deliberately collided with the boat, it seemed to be scratching a skin irritation,' said mr spiteri 'a huge whale and little boat it was potentially expedition ending!' another obstacle the crew had to overcome was losing the sixth member of their team, mr usher 'a big cargo ship with medical facilities came and picked me up the ship actually banged into the rowing boat while they were taking me on board it took eight days to travel back to australia and i was confined to my room for seven of those days, to avoid reinfecting my burns,' mr usher said mr spiteri is ecstatic about the crew's achievement 'it was honestly the most epic adventure anyone could go on it was a pioneering first world attempt and i still can't get my head around the fact that we did it! it surpassed every one of my expectations' the australians on board: tim spiteri (left) and shane usher, preparing on the day of their departure on june 11, 2014 the crew on board the 'aurora' their vessel that took them almost 8600 kilometres across the indian ocean the crew came across pirates, sharks, hurricanes and a 15 metre long blue whale, which used the boat to scratch an itch, much to the crew's mixed fear and amusement tim spiteri has so far raised more than $30 thousand for ms australia, a cause close to his heart as his mother struggles with the condition 'mum was out on a boat with the other family members and met us when we reached seychelles to see her face at the end was unbelievable, the emotion and relief on her face we had minimal contact with anyone during the trip so i think her heart was in her mouth the entire time we were at sea' mr spiteri found he gained insight about life with multiple sclerosis, a debilitating disease of the central nervous system 'i was surprised that there was some synergy between my experience on the row with the kinds of struggles i've seen my mum face with ms 'with ms you want to do things but it doesn't work that way your brain won't cooperate with your brain which makes it really difficult to do the things you want to i'm able to empathise with that struggle more now after the physical struggle of the row 'we faced hurricanes with winds that kept pushing us south as we tried to row north we were prevented from doing what we wanted for a myriad of reasons but you push through every obstacle and something you change your goals but just have to keep going 'it's a little like the brave people with ms that still manage to live and achieve with their symptoms everyday' mr spiteri found the physical and mental challenge to be a humbling and profound experience 'i learnt so much about myself and about people about what you can achieve as a group of people in arduous circumstances when you need to 'i'm really going to miss my time being on a very small boat in a very big ocean where i didn't have any control, just the small ability to work with i have, fighting all the way 'it changes your philosophy about life it makes your realise the importance of letting go so many obstacles pop up along the way that want to take you out and knock you over, but all you can do is just do one stroke after the other and eventually you'll get there and hopefully it's a paradise like seychelles' tim spiteri revealing the logo on the side of the boat for one of the charities the crew were raising fund for, save the elephants the six member crew on the morning of their departure five people successfully completed the row after shane usher was evacuated halfway through the expedition, after he suffered burns from scalding hot water

college tuition fees may have risen by more than 400 per cent since in the last 40 years, but the number of graduates has also increased dramatically an interactive map uploaded by metric maps shows the increase in us citizens obtaining a bachelors degree from 107 per cent in 1970 to 285 per cent in 2012 almost half a century ago, college graduates made up less than 10 per cent of the population in a huge number of areas across the country, the map shows in 1970 only a small number of areas had more than 30 per cent of people studied for four years at college these included the san francisco bay area, parts of colorado and washington dc in only a few regions — the san francisco bay area, parts of colorado and washington dc — did the number of people who had completed four years of college approach a third by 1990, there had been an enormous change with more areas showing an increase in the proportion of their citizens obtaining degrees large parts of the northeastern and western coasts could boast that at least a third of their population were college graduates in 2012, the number increases again, with yet more areas showing a high percentage of residents achieving a bachelors degree the dramatic increase across the country is surprising considering the substantial rise in college tuition in 1970 for example, a university of utah student would spent about $390 a year on tuition today it costs around $6,000 the rise is also putting pressure on the job market and is causing thousands more to be left with mountains of student debt at the end of their courses pbs reported that the percentage of american jobs that require bachelor’s degrees to be somewhere between 20 and 35 percent it means the market may not have enough employment opportunities for all the graduates by 1990, the picture had dramatically changed, with coastal areas showing a higher proportion of people obtaining a bachelors degree more than 40 years on from the first map, huge swathes of the country have a population where more than 30 per cent have studied for four years at college

google has asked the high court to throw out former formula one boss max mosley's claim for damages over 'sex orgy' pictures as a judge admitted awarding compensation would be 'difficult' google has asked the high court to throw out former formula one boss max mosley's claim for damages over 'sex orgy' pictures as a judge admitted awarding compensation would be 'difficult' mosley, 74, is seeking damages from google uk and parent company google inc, and an injunction banning the publication of the photographs on the search engine he has brought a claim against us based google inc and google uk under the data protection act and against google inc for misuse of private information however, google’s lawyers say that his case is unsustainable in fact and law and should be struck out they also argue that permission to serve the claim on google inc outside the jurisdiction of the court should be set aside the litigation follows mosley’s 2008 privacy victory against the now defunct news of the world newspaper when he won £60,000 compensation after it accused him of taking part in a 'sick nazi orgy' with five prostitutes mosley, the son of the 1930s fascist leader sir oswald mosley, did not dispute taking part in the sadomasochistic roleplay at a rented chelsea basement flat, but said it was consensual and private, with no nazi overtones he said that his life had been devastated by the march 2008 expose and by the newspaper putting secretly filmed footage on its website, which attracted at least 35 million hits today, mosley continued his battle against google in london’s high court, but mr justice mitting said damages ‘may simply not be available’ to him however, the judge said some form of injunction banning the images could be ‘much less problematic’ google’s counsel, antony white qc, said today that the threshold test was whether a person had a reasonable expectation of privacy, taking into account all the circumstances of the case scroll down for video 'there can be few privacy claims which relate to material which has been quite so widely publicised over so many years as the images which are the subject of this claim,' he told mr justice mitting he said that, shortly after the expose, mr justice eady refused mosley a temporary injunction against news group newspapers (ngn), saying that he no longer had any reasonable expectation of privacy and, even if he had, the 'dam has effectively burst' and an order would be futile during the damages trial, mr justice eady ruled that the newspaper article was not in the public interest mosley, 74, is seeking damages from google uk (pictured) and parent company google inc, and an injunction banning the publication of the photographs on the search engine he said mosley 'had a reasonable expectation of privacy in relation to sexual activities (albeit unconventional) carried on between consenting adults on private property' but he branded the former president of the motoring organisation the federation internationale de l’automobile 'reckless and almost self destructive' and 'the author of his own misfortune' after the trial, the judge did grant a permanent injunction against ngn, preventing re publication, on the basis that it should not be entitled to profit from its own wrongdoing, but this did not prohibit other parties outside england and wales from using images already in the public domain 'the images, including the 95 second video, have now been continuously available online for over six years and have in all likelihood been viewed by millions of people around the world,' said mr white “there is no previous successful claim for misuse of private information which relates to material which has been so widely disseminated and which is so well known 'if the claimant had lost his reasonable expectation of privacy back in april 2008, within days of publication, it is clear that six years on he cannot have any reasonable expectation of privacy in relation to the images' today, mosley continued his battle against google in london’s high court, but mr justice mitting said damages ‘may simply not be available’ to him mr white said that, notwithstanding this, google inc had used its notice and takedown procedures to block images when specific urls had been provided because, whatever the strict legal position, it had some sympathy for mosley and wished to avoid a dispute he described mosley, who was in court for the hearing, as someone who had remained in the public eye as 'an admirable campaigner for privacy rights' mosley has campaigned for privacy since the article was printed, backing pressure group hacked off and giving evidence in the leveson enquiry he has also been successful in legal bids to stop google from directing users to images of the orgy via the french and german courts mosley (pictured), who was in court for the hearing, was described as 'an admirable campaigner for privacy rights' by google's lawyer antony white mr white added that google inc, as the operator of search, was not a 'publisher' of the images for the purposes of a privacy claim and no general obligation to monitor could be imposed on it mosley’s lawyers say that google’s application is misconceived and want it dismissed with a defence filed within 28 days his counsel, hugh tomlinson qc, said that although mosley had pursued third parties who continued to publish in several jurisdictions, the image remained accessible to users of google search google accepted that links to the images should be removed from its indices, but would only do so after mosley sent them the precise url for each image, which meant he was forced to engage in what a canadian court had described as an 'endless game of 'whack a mole''' mr tomlinson added that this was despite the fact that, as google now accepted, it was possible for it to take technical steps to prevent the images being indexed by google search in the first place faced with 'this lack of co operation' from google, mosley had brought his claim in july last year mr tomlinson added: 'despite its dominance of the online search market in the uk, google has consistently sought to avoid appearing before the english courts to defend itself on the merits 'whilst accepting that it should take material down as in the present case it has consistently refused to use automated technical means to assist individuals 'the court should dismiss these applications and the defendants should be required to defend themselves at a full trial' mr justice mitting said he was not bound by mr justice eady’s decision, since it was an interim order, adding he did not ‘see why, even if the fact is public, the photographs should not be subject to continuing restraint’ ‘if you accept as a premise that the possession alone of photographs of an intimate act is itself a breach of privacy and confidentiality, then it seems to me that you are entitled to restrain it, whether or not it is in the public domain,' he added however, the judge indicated mosley was unlikely to be able to win any sort of damages from google the judge said, ‘that particular remedy may simply not be available to the claimant’ later he said that ‘the difficult part of mr tomlinson’s case is that [damages] part of his case’ but he said ordering some form of injunction appeared ‘much less problematic’ the lawyers mentioned the possibility of ‘fingerprinting’ pictures, which would identify them as being unfit for publication mr white conceded it was possible to mark certain pictures in this way and said it was not a difficult exercise for google to undertake mr justice mitting appeared to favour this solution, saying it was ‘strongly arguable that there is a difference between something you can’t do anything about and something you can do something easily about’ on a separate issue, mr white denied that google was a ‘publisher’ of material, stating search results were created by ‘an algorithmic exercise without human knowledge or involvement’ quoting an earlier judgement, he said mosley’s case was ‘impermissibly speculative’ the hearing continues tomorrow when the judge is likely to reserve his decision to a later date sorry we are not currently accepting comments on this article

lawsuit: art enthusiast sheikh saud bin mohammed al thani has been accused of amassing huge debts with auction houses a sheikh who has spent more than £1billion on his art collection has denied accusations of being a 'serial defaulter' and amassing a pile of unpaid debts with some of the world’s top auction houses saud bin mohammed al thani 'reputedly the world’s largest collector of objets d’art' is being sued by dealers who say he has dishonoured a pledge to pay $197 million for a collection of ancient greek coins sold at auction in new york in january saud, 45, 'purchased nearly $20 million worth of coins from the prospero collection', regarded as the finest assortment of archaic, classical and hellenistic greek coins ever assembled, the high court was told although the dealers are still holding the coins they are insisting that the sheikh should be bound by his bid at auction the dealers’ qc, jeffrey gruder, likened sheikh saud to an 'inveterate gambler' who could not stop himself spending millions on objects of his desire before walking away from his obligations 'he bids, wins and then doesn’t pay one can only conclude that this is a person acting dishonourably and disreputably he is bidding when he knows he’s not going to be able to pay,' the barrister claimed 'perhaps in a perverse way he enjoys the process of bidding if one wants to be an amateur psychiatrist, maybe he is like an inveterate gambler who can’t stop himself gambling at ladbrokes every day' three dealers ah baldwin and sons ltd, dmitry markov, who trades as dmitry markov coins and medals, and n&m numismatics llc say the sheikh has given no 'explanation or excuse' for his failure to pay, and mr gruder said he had left an 'extraordinary trail of unpaid debts' the case reached the high court as their lawyers urged mr justice haddon cave to continue an asset freezing injunction imposed on the sheikh, who is a cousin of the ruling emir of qatar, on october 9 mr gruder made hotly disputed allegations that sheikh saud’s total unpaid bill to worldwide auctioneers and art dealers includes £43 million owed to bonhams, around $42 million owed to sothebys, and various other sums owed to at least five other auction houses and art dealers 'the fact that he is a member of the qatar royal family is not relevant,' the qc went on 'because if this is his conduct it doesn’t matter who he is' case: the row relates to the sale of the prospero collection of greek coins (file picture) he repeatedly gave ah baldwin the 'run around' when they tried to pin him down about paying the $197 million bill, mr gruder alleged, offering to pay part of the outstanding cash in return for acquiring some of the coins 'there were further meetings asking for the money, but basically nothing was paid,' he added treasures: the clive of india flask (pictured) a mughal treasure was brought back from india by robert clive in the 18th century and bought by the sheikh for £3million the deadlock over payment became so entrenched that the uk ambassador to qatar and his opposite number in london became involved 'but, despite the best efforts of the two ambassadors, no payment has been forthcoming from the sheikh,' said the qc the sheikh rose to prominence after he spent  £1billion on art between 1996 and 2004 in 2000, he splashed out more than £9m on 136 vintage photographs including great works by man ray and alfred stieglitz from the collection of hamburg photographer werner bokelberg other prominent purchases during this time include a £5m fabergé egg bought at christie's in new york in 2002, a £46m complete set of audubon's birds of america, and a £79m roman marble statue, the jenkins venus in 2003 he beat london's v&a to purchase the £3m clive of india flask 'sheikh saud was a passionate art collector with a great eye,' said georgina adam, editor at large of the art newspaper in 2005 the sheikh's spree came to a dramatic end when he was placed under house arrest in qatar he allegedly used a london dealer to fake invoices, misleading the qatari government about the value of the items he was buying he was sacked from the country's national culture council however, within a year he was spotted at auctions again in 2008, he bought 90 per cent of the lots at a sale of chinese art at christie's last month, he was spotted at the european fine art fair in maastricht mr gruder also voiced concerns that the sheikh might be decamping from his london base now that his creditors have begun to gather, claiming that he left the uk earlier this month 'when the going began to get hot' prized: a full set of 'the birds of america' (1827 1838) by john james audubon (sample of three drawings) was sold to saud for £46m beautiful: the sheikh added the jenkins venus, a roman statue circa late 1st to mid 2nd century ad for £79m but the sheikh’s qc, stephen rubin, brushed aside the suggestion that he might be fleeing the jurisdiction he is currently in doha qatar’s capital 'where he is a member of the royal family,' said the barrister 'he hasn’t slunk off in the night to doha,' added mr rubin, noting that it was 'not unusual' for men in the sheikh’s position to 'go back to the middle east when the temperatures begin to drop' in the uk however, mr gruder claimed the sheikh had left 'almost a trail of destruction' behind him 'he is a serial defaulter, as we have seen, in terms of auctions,' the qc added denying those accusations on the sheikh’s behalf, mr rubin said he had been 'trying to pay”for the coins for the past nine months 'there are no doubt timing issues which go to why he cannot pay at the moment, but that’s not a reason to make a freezing order against someone,' urged the barrister, who said the sheikh had been a faithful customer to leading art dealers over the years 'he is a very well known and internationally regarded art collector,' said mr rubin, who denied that the sheikh had accumulated a tide of unpaid debts mr rubin also attacked the case against the sheikh as 'obviously wrong', pointing out that the dealers had no basis for enforcing a contract of sale with him, as they had merely 'organised' the sale of coins owned by an 'unidentified' client of ah baldwin and sons the high court heard that the sheikh had given people the 'run around' and has tens of millions of debts with famous auction houses the qc added: 'the way in which the american complaint is formulated is misconceived, in that it purports to be a claim for enforcement of a ‘contract of sale’, notwithstanding that the claimants were not on any view parties to any such contract with the sheikh' there was no evidence before the court on the value of the coins which the sheikh 'allegedly agreed to buy', added the barrister, who said that the dealers still have the coins and are free to find a buyer for them if they wish mr justice haddon cave has now reserved his judgment in the case

sometimes, people do inexplicably stupid things,' he said christie added, 'i can't get into what their motivations were, except to say that anybody who really knows me would not believe that doing something inexplicably stupid would please me' the governor's former deputy chief of staff, bridget anne kelly and david wildstein who was appointed by christie to the agency that runs the george washington bridge have both been implicated in the scandal chris christie's government funded lawyer claims the new jersey governor had nothing to do with the george washington bridge scandal christie has also sacked former campaign manager bill stepien, and wildstein’s boss at the port authority, bill baroni, who were both criticized for lying in the  report released today which exonerates christie indeed the report that cleared christie also revealed that kelly and stepien were involved leading up to last year's traffic closuresthe report, released today by a law firm christie hired to investigate the scandal, said that the two had been a couple for months but had called things off a month before the george washington bridge lane closures blame game: david wildstein, who personally oversaw the george washington bridge lane closures, says he has evidence that chris christie lied this was refuted by thursday report asked by sawyer if he thought his aides were acting out of personal loyalty because fort lee mayor, mark sokolich did not endorse him, christie said no 'i don’t believe it was for me,' he said indeed the report released today quashed speculation that the bridge was shut to affect sokolich in fact the motive was identified as some unexplained 'ulterior motive' fueled by the 'animosity' towards the fort lee mayor the report also made it clear that wildstein informed christie that the bridge closure had caused huge traffic problems while the governor was at a 9/11 event in manhattan however, sawyer said that contradicts how christie said that he learned of the closure 'i don't have any recollection of that,' christie replied 'david was one of hundreds of people that i spoke to that day we stood around and spoke briefly that day 'i don't have any recollection of him saying anything but i'll tell you this i'll tell you what he didn't say 'he didn't say, ‘hey, by the way governor, i'm closing down some lanes of the george washington bridge to stick it to the mayor is that ok?’ that i'd remember' in his view: governor christie's office hired randy mastro, a former federal prosecutor, to investigate the scandal and the report released thursday declares clears christie of wrongdoing the lawyer hired by new jersey gov chris christie to review a traffic blocking scandal that has engulfed christie's administration released this report which a published report said clears the governor of any role in the plot christie deemed the past two months the worst of his professional life and said that the episode had brought him closer to his family 'right after it happened, our oldest son was home on break, and he asked me, 'did you do this?’ the governor said 'it was a tough question that your son would ask you and i said, ‘no, i didn’t’ and he said, ‘good, i’m glad’ 'it’s brought me closer to my family, it’s brought me to re evaluate some of the way i spend my time,' christie said all but two lanes of the fort lee approach to the george washington bridge were closed for four days in september paralyzing the borough and frustrating tens of thousands of commuters 'i think you can get caught up in this world and in this life so easily… i’m spending a lot more time at home than i ever have … where it’s taken me is that my responsibilities here are important too' when asked if kelly was potentially a smoking gun who could reveal the governor did know, christie said that she couldn't 'credibly' do that he wrapped up the interview by claiming that at no point was he ever close to resigning 'i’m not a quitter,' he said 'you don’t do that certainly, from my perspective, position, i knew i hadn’t done anything wrong, so there is no reason for me to leave in fact there is even more of a reason for me to stay, to fix it that’s who i am — someone who has to fix things make them better so, for me it was even more of an incentive not to go'

shot dead: trayvon martin was killed as he walked home from a shop at a florida gated community where his father lives the family of a teenager who was shot and killed by neighbourhood watch leader filed a public lawsuit on thursday, and are suing police to get access to the 911, which they think could give clues to the death of 17 year old trayvon martin they are outraged that the details of the 911 call made after george zimmerman, 26, called police have not been made available to them police say the 911 recording is evidence in an on going investigation martin's father, tracy, said that family members were upset that no arrest had been made he described the neighbourhood as mixed race but his attorneys said they believed trayvon was being profiled at the time of the encounter because he was a young black man; zimmerman is white the attorneys also questioned why a neighbourhood watch leader would carry a gun'he was stereotyped for some reason,' the martins’ attorney ben crump said of the victim 'why was trayvon suspicious? there are hundreds of children in that community’ mr crump also called zimmerman a ‘loose cannon’ and pointed out that zimmerman was arrested in orange county in 2005 for resisting arrest and battery of a police officer 'he had a gun, and trayvon had skittles,' mr krump said 'we want justice' trayvon’s mother, sybrina fulton, is angry no actions have yet been taken against the man who shot her son ‘this guy was not arrested,’ she told weshcom ‘i do not understand as a mother, my heart is broken’ his father, tracy martin, also demanded justice ‘my son left sanford, florida in a body bag,’ he told weshcom ‘while george zimmerman went home to go to sleep in his own bed it’s senseless and the police in sanford isn’t (sic) giving any answers and we actually feel that justice hasn’t been served and isn’t being served’ devastated: trayvon's mother sybrina fulton said her 'heart is broken' as zimmerman has not yet been arrested tragic: martin was coming home with skittles and iced tea when he was shot dead in the gated community the police report said zimmerman initially called police to report a suspicious person in the neighbourhood and minutes later 911 dispatchers received several calls of shots being fired in the neighbourhood zimmerman told police officers that he had shot martin and officers found a semiautomatic handgun on him the report said that zimmerman's back was wet and he was covered in grass as if he had been on the ground he was bleeding from his nose and the back of the head, the report said difficult case: zimmerman claimed he was acting in self defence when he shot trayvon martin on the night of february 26 and has not yet been charged over the incident a police officer said he overheard zimmerman say, 'i was yelling for someone to help me but no one would help me' while he was being treated by paramedics zimmerman has been interviewed three times and is cooperating he is claiming self defence, even though he was following martin, police said trayvon martin was gunned down just yards from his father's home as he made his way back from a shop in the orlando suburb of sanford, florida neighbourhood watch captain george zimmerman, 28, has admitted shooting the youngster, but claims it was in self defence as yet, he has not been arrested or charged in connection with the killing trayvon who lived in miami with his mother, had been visiting his father and his partner in a gated community called the retreat at twin lakes, 20 miles north of orlando during halftime of an nba all star game, the high school junior had gone to a nearby shop to buy some skittles for his younger brother trayvon was returning home when he was spotted by zimmerman, a college student and member of the local neighbourhood watch, who was armed with a 9mm handgun according to a police report released yesterday, zimmerman, who was patrolling the neighbourhood in his car, had initially called police to report 'suspicious person in the area' zimmerman was told to keep his distance, however, before officers could reach the scene, there was some kind of confrontation between him and the teenager scene: police stand by the grass verge in the gated community where martin was killed martin family's home: martin's father said that while zimmerman got to go home after the shooting, his son went away in a body bag minutes later, 911 dispatchers received several calls of shots being fired in the neighbourhood by the time police arrived trayvon lay face down on a patch of grass by the road, dead from a single gunshot wound to his chest 'my son left sanford, florida in a body bag while george zimmerman went home to go to sleep in his own bed' tracy martin trayvon's family have issued repeated calls for zimmerman's arrest and yesterday demanded that the 911 tapes relating to the case are released tracy martin, trayvan's father, told the huffington post yesterday he wants to know what happened between his son and zimmerman in the minutes between the call and the shooting 'i'm looking for justice for my family,' he said 'i want answers but i don't have any to give — not for his mother, his brothers or sisters 'we don't have nothing, but we want answers' exclusive: the entrance to the gated community where martin was shot zimmerman told police that he had shot the youngster and officers found a semi automatic handgun on him, for which he held a permit the police report said that zimmerman's back was wet and he was covered in grass as if he had been on the ground he was bleeding from his nose and the back of the head, the report said a police officer said he overheard zimmerman say, 'i was yelling for someone to help me but no one would help me' while he was being treated by paramedics 'we want answers': trayvon pictured as a toddler: his family are desperate to see the man who shot him placed under arrest zimmerman is claiming self defence, even though he was following trayvon, said sanford police chief bill lee 'there is some physical evidence and some testimony that would corroborate some of that story,' mr lee told the associated press he added that the 911 tapes have not been released because they have critical information and detectives don't want them to influence the testimony of prospective witnesses a phone number listed for zimmerman has been disconnected, and his current whereabouts are not known, the huffington post reported mr martin said yesterday that family members were upset that no arrest had been made he described the neighborhood as mixed race but his attorneys said they believed trayvon martin was being profiled at the time of the encounter because he was a young black man zimmerman is white the attorneys also questioned why a neighbourhood watch leader would carry a gun 'he was stereotyped for some reason,' attorney ben crump said of the victim 'why was trayvon suspicious? there are hundreds of children in that community' the police chief said residents upset by the lack of an arrest so far should wait until the investigation is completed, as soon as next week the state attorney's office will then decide whether to present it to a grand jury 'i understand the emotions and the response from the community based on the limited information they have,' mr lee said 'we just hope they would allow us the time to conduct a thorough and fair investigation' mr crump on wednesday told reuters that the family was concerned that police would treat the shooting as self defence, and that police have ignored the family's request for a copy of the original 911 call, which they think will shed light on the incidents 'if the 911 protocol across the country held to form here, they told him not to get involved he disobeyed that order,' said ryan julison, a spokesman for the family 'he didn't have to get out of his car,' said mr crump 'if he never gets out of his car, there is no reason for self defense trayvon only has skittles he has the gun' since trayvon, a high school junior who wanted to be a pilot, was black and zimmerman is white, mr crump said race was 'the 600lb elephant in the room' 'why is this kid suspicious in the first place? i think a stereotype must have been placed on the kid'
