angry: captain roberto bosio, who was off duty but helped co ordinate the evacuation, said schettino was a 'disgraceful man' an off duty captain who co ordinated the costa concordia's evacuation has condemned the ship's skipper as a 'disgraceful' man captain roberto bosio, 45, this afternoon broke his silence over claims francesco schettino abandoned ship before passengers and failed to make a mayday call as the ship listed he said: 'only a disgraceful man would have left all those passengers on board it was the most horrible experience of my life a tragedy, a heartache that i will carry with me forever' off duty bosio, who captains the concordia's sister ship the serena, was only on board the ship by chance as he made his way back home to savona, near genoa bosio, who is engaged and lives in ventimiglia on the french italian border, was in his cabin resting when disaster struck he helped dozens of woman and children into lifeboats, and is understood to have organised the entire rescue effort throughout the night survivors have also said that as the keen biker left his cabin he told every passenger he met to put on a life jacket he added: 'we managed to avoid the worse and have the world crash down around us i just want to rest and forget 'don’t call me a hero i just did my duty, the duty of a sea captain – actually the duty of a normal man 'i and the others with me just did our duty we looked each other in the eyes for a second and then we just got on with it' bosio's comments came after one schettino's former captains labelled him 'a braggart, a show off' and claimed he drove the luxury liner 'like a ferrari' captain mario palombo also revealed he had to put francesco schettino in his place 'more than once' when the under fire commander acted as his deputy on the now doomed vessel, la repubblica reported his claims came as italian divers again suspended their search of the capsized ship at 8am after it shifted slightly on its resting place near the tuscan island of giglio fire services spokesman luca cari said the shift of a few centimetres posed a potential threat to diving teams operating in the submerged spaces of the ship it increased fears the vessel could soon dislodge from the rock and plummet 100m down to the bottom of the mediterranean 'braggart and a show off': the costa concordia's captain frencesco schettino, pictured (left) in his pomp in 2010 and leaving court (right) yesterday, has been heavily criticised by a former captain of the stricken luxury cruise liner slipping: the costa concordia fell another few centimetres into the sea today, sparking fears it will soon dislodge itself from its rocky resting place and plummet 100m to the bottom of the sea schettino, 52, a captain since 2006, now faces a possible 15 years in prison for multiple manslaughter and abandoning ship while dozens of passengers were still aboard yesterday the death toll rose to 11 when divers located five more bodies, all of them adults wearing life jackets, in the rear of the ship near an emergency evacuation point a total of 24 people are still missing trawling: police scuba divers scour the ship for survivors and bodies, using explosives to blast debris and other obstacles out of their path race against the clock: the hulking vessel could slip and plunge to the sea bed at any minute the tongue lashing given to schettino by an angry coastguard has been turned into a £12 t shirt the shirt, bearing the phrase 'vada a bordo, cazzo' went on sale within minutes of the recording of the coastguard's row with captain francesco schettino was made public widely read as 'get on board, damn it',  italian translators say the phrase is really far more forceful than that one said: 'in one way it can mean 'f***ing get on board' and in another way it means 'get on board, you p***k'' prosecutors have alleged schettino was trying to show off by sailing past the tuscan island of giglio, where his head waiter lived, when he ran the ship aground just 150m offshore the ship should have been at least five miles out to sea, but struck rocks schettino claimed were 'not on his chart'the liner then continued for several hundred metres before running aground further along the coast schettino, who started his career on a ferry boat near his home on italy's amalfi coast but has now been stripped of his command, has now been ordered by an investigating magistrate to undergo a drug test searching off the liner was due to continue today, before its suspension, with further explosive charges detonated around the superstructure the aim is to make it easier for navy and coastguard diving teams to reach sections of the concordia that still need to be searched attention was due to be focused mainly on the restaurant on deck four at the back of the concordia that was the location where the bodies of four men and a woman all aged between 50 and 60 years old were found yesterday, and where it is feared the rest of the missing passengers and crew are the search teams are racing against time as the weather is set to turn stormy tomorrow, with waves of up to two metres forecast as well as storm force winds brave team: the divers are working under the danger that furniture or debris could slip and crush them if the boat lists human chain: rescue workers climb on to the concordia in the faint hope that some passengers may be clinging to life in a freak air pocket the fear is that a large sea swell could easily 'lift' the liner from the rock ledge it is resting on and send it plunging 100m to the bottom of the sea salvage teams are also expected to begin pumping off 2,280 tons of heavy duty diesel that is still in the ship's tanks and which are a ticking ecological time bomb as the area is a protected sea sanctuary for whales, porpoises and dolphins meanwhile captain roberto bosio, who was off duty on the concordia when the disaster struck and who has been hailed as a hero after giving the order to abandon ship, broke his silence and said: 'only a disgraceful man would have left all those passengers on board' captain bosio, 45, who was seen helping dozens of women and children into lifeboats, added: 'it was the most horrible experience of my life 'a tragedy, a heartache that i will carry with me forever we managed to avoid the worse and have the world crash down around us i just want to rest and forget don't call me a hero i just did my duty, the duty of a sea captain actually the duty of a normal man 'i and the others with me just did our duty we looked each other in the eyes for a second and then we just got on with it' discovery: a scuba diver is pictured dragging a body out from the stricken cruise liner costa concordia as the confirmed death toll rises to 11 blasting through: the bright flash of an explosion shows where italian navy divers have used 'micro charges' to force their way through the hull of the capsized costa concordia in a bid to find missing passengers and crew

text that was hidden on a damaged copy of the 1215 magna carta for more than 250 years has been uncovered the near invisible words were revealed using groundbreaking multispectral imaging work at the british library in london this work has been completed by library's conservators and scientists in preparation for next year’s 800th anniversary of the sealing of the ancient charter scroll down for video hidden text in a copy of the 1215 magna carta damaged in a fire has been read for the first time in 250 years the manuscript appears a sandy colour in natural light (pictured), but the text 'appears' under special light conditions (shown in black and white) the burnt copy of the magna carta is one of four original manuscripts from 1215 which survive the magna carta was the first document imposed upon a king of england by a group of his subjects, the feudal barons, in an attempt to limit his powers by law and protect their rights the scanned copy of the magna carta was damaged in the cotton library fire in 1731 staff at the library attempted to preserve it using 19th century techniques, by flattening it out and mounting it, which left some text almost impossible to see, christina duffy, an imaging scientist at the british library explained in a blog post now, multispectral imaging of the burnt copy – a non destructive imaging technique has been conducted and has revealed text that has not been visible for 250 years a british library curator told mailonline that some of the words of the magna carta's 'security clause' can be seen using the uv image once the charters were removed from the frames, near infrared spectroscopy and high resolution digital microscopy was used to investigate the condition of the ink and parchment multispectral imaging was used to 'virtually peel away the layers of damage' and reveal obscured words using a high resolution camera and different wavelengths of light the variations in the chemical composition of the material in the charter was varied and included ink and parchment which reacts differently to the lights this means that experts could see extra information – including text – which is undetectable by the human eye an english translation reads: 'since we have granted all these things for god, for the better ordering of our kingdom, and to allay the discord that has arisen between us and our barons, and since we desire that they shall be enjoyed in their entirety, with lasting strength, for ever, we give and grant to the barons the following security: the barons shall elect twenty five of their number to keep, and cause to be observed with all their might, the peace and liberties granted and confirmed to them by this charter 'if we, our chief justice, our officials or any of our servants offend in any respect against any man, or transgress any of the articles of the peace or of this security, and the offence is made known to four of the twenty five barons, they shall come to us to declare it and claim immediate redress the twenty five barons shall swear to obey all the above articles faithfully, and shall cause them to be obeyed by others to the best of their power' the clause is so important because it was the only means by which magna carta was to be enforced if king john was judged to have transgressed its terms, an elected committee of twenty five barons were given authority to seek redress from him an english translation reads: 'since we have granted all these things for god, for the better ordering of our kingdom, and to allay the discord that has arisen between us and our barons, and since we desire that they shall be enjoyed in their entirety, with lasting strength, for ever, we give and grant to the barons the following security: the barons shall elect twenty five of

us to declare it and claim immediate redress the twenty five barons shall swear to obey all the above articles faithfully, and shall cause them to be obeyed by others to the best of their power' the ‘burnt’ magna carta (pictrured) was damaged in the cotton library fore in 1731 and staff at the library attempted to preserve it using 19th century techniques, by flattening it out and mounting it, which left some text almost impossible to see multispectral imaging (pictured left) – a non destructive imaging technique of the burnt copy has been conducted and has revealed text that has not been visible for 250 years an image of the historical manuscript can be seen, right, under cyan lighting conditions the scanned copy of the magna carta was damaged in the cotton library fire in 1731 the contents of the cotton library was assembled by robert cotton and presented to the british nation by his grandson in 1700 it contains some of the most well known treasures of the british library, including the lindisfarne gospels, magna carta and beowulf on october 23, 1731, a fire broke out where the manuscripts were being temporarily held, at ashburnham house, westminster a quarter of the collection was affected and the librarian is said to have leapt from a window to escape the blaze, rescuing an early manuscript of the bible at the same time a total of 13 manuscripts were completely destroyed and many only survived as charred fragments, or with significant damage lots of the parchments were coated in gelatine, which is the end product of sudden degradation of the parchment collagen when cooled, it becomes brittle and obscures text water used to extinguish the fire, also played a role in damaging the literary treasures the content of the hidden text isn't new, because the four manuscripts have the same content, but the discovery is important nonetheless to clarify the contents of the damaged parchment, a team of experts first examined the original frames to determine their structure and composition all original mounting materials in contact with the charters were tested using different methods, such as infrared spectroscopy and ph tests, to determine their stability and compatibility with the new materials once the charters were removed from the frames, near infrared spectroscopy and high resolution digital microscopy was used to investigate the condition of the ink and parchment to assess the overall condition of the historical document ‘with the frames and glass removed, there was a rare opportunity to employ the cutting edge technique of multispectral imaging enabling us to virtually peel away the layers of damage currently affecting the manuscript,’ dr duffy wrote multispectral imaging is a non destructive, non invasive imaging technique using different colour lights, including ultra violet and infrared, to recover faded and lost text multispectral imaging is a non destructive, non invasive imaging technique using different colour lights, including ultra violet and infrared, to recover faded and lost text this is the result when used on the manuscript text invisible to the human eye can be seen and analysed by experts in february 2015, the four copies of the magna carta will be brought together for the first time in history for a three day event, which will allow further academic study of them side by side an easily legible copy usually housed at salisbury cathedral is shown uncovering the text was a painstaking process temporary housing was prepared to store the charter (top left) and the original wooden frames carefully removed to get access to the manuscript (top right) the charter was removed from the mounting (bottom left) and then underwent tests to determine its condition (bottom right) a high resolution camera was securely mounted directly over the charter, which was then illuminated with led lights ranging from the ultraviolet at wavelengths invisible to humans, to the visible the chemical composition of the material in the charter was varied and included ink and parchment which reacts differently to the lights this means that experts could see extra information – including text – which is undetectable by the human eye this technique will allow scientists to preserve the magna carta for the next 800 years in february 2015, the four manuscripts will be brought together for the first time in history for a three day event, which will allow further academic study of them side by side the date is 800 years after the issue of the charter by king john in 1215 a total of 1,215 members of the public will also be able to see them people interested in the historic opportunity can enter a ballot to be in with a chance of taking part in the event, sponsored by law firm linklaters the british library is home to two of the original magna carta manuscripts, while the other two are held at lincoln and salisbury cathedrals claire breay, lead curator of medieval and earlier manuscripts at the british library, says: 'magna carta is the most popular item in the library’s treasures gallery, and is venerated around the world as marking the starting point for government under the law 'bringing the four surviving manuscripts together for the first time will create a once in a lifetime opportunity for researchers and members of the public to see them in one place' the british library (pictuerd) is home to two of the original magna carta manuscripts, while the other two are held at lincoln and salisbury cathedrals
london 250 years first next year
burnt magna carta text has been made visible for the first time in 250 years experts used multispectral imaging work to reveal the illegible words manuscript was said to have been damaged in a fire in london in 1731 it's one of four that have survived since 1215 when the charter was created the four documents will come together for the first time next year

the captain of mh370 is now 'chief suspect' in malaysia's official police investigation into the ongoing mystery of the malaysia airlines jet's disappearance after investigators found suspicious evidence from a flight simulator in his home captain zaharie shah, 53, reportedly used his home simulator to practice take off and landings in remote locations, including some airstrips in the southern indian ocean investigators have now managed to obtain the files which had been deleted before they swept the machine scroll down for video suspicious: the captain of the missing airline mh370, zaharie ahmad shah, has been dubbed the 'chief suspect' in malaysia's official police investigation into the incident the criminal inquiry cleared all the intelligence checks completed for all the people on board the flight to beijing via kuala lumpur the only individual arousing suspicion was captian shah after more than 170 interviews, detectives determined that captain shah was the most likely culprit if the plane which went missing on march 8 with 239 people on board was lost due to human intervention, according to the sunday times the criminal inquiry completed intelligence checks on all of the people on board the flight to beijing via kuala lumpur, but the only individual arousing suspicion was captain zaharie the father of three was found to have no social or work related future plans, unlike the rest of the crew including his co pilot, fariq hamid the newspaper has also stated that police were told of rumours that the captain was experiencing tensions at home with his partner and family members, however this was denied by friends and family who continue to defend him the father of three (left) had made no social or work related plans for the future, unlike the rest of the crew malaysian police were also told of rumours that he was experiencing tensions with some family members investigators retrieve deleted files from captain shah's home flight simulator which allegedly showed him rehearsing a landing on a small runway after flying above the southern indian ocean the criminal inquiry, which is yet to rule out other reasons for the plane's disappearance including a mechanical failure and terrorism, has so far only released its results to foreign governments and their investigators 'the police investigation is still ongoing to date no conclusions can be made as to the contributor to the incident and it would be sub judice (a legal term referring to not commenting on ongoing cases) to say so,' malaysian police were quoted a saying 'nevertheless, the police are still looking into all possible angles' captain shah was said to be a 'fanatical' supporter of the country's opposition leader anwar ibrahim jailed for homosexuality just hours before the jet disappeared grieving: a chinese woman whose son was on the missing malaysia airlines flight mh370, in beijing earlier this month he was described as was an ‘obsessive’ supporter of ibrahim and hours before the doomed flight left kuala lumpur it is understood 53 year old shah attended a controversial trial in which ibrahim was jailed for five years campaigners say the politician, the key challenger to malaysia’s ruling party, was the victim of a long running smear campaign and had faced trumped up charges police sources have confirmed that shah was a vocal political activist – and fear that the court decision left him profoundly upset it was against this background that, seven hours later, he took control of a boeing 777 200 bound for beijing and carrying 238 passengers and crew the missing plane, considered history's worst aviation disaster, went missing on march 8 with 239 people on board probe: months of searching the ocean floor using state of the art equipment has so far yielded nothing it's not the first time captain zaharie has been the centre of suspicion regarding the missing airline varying testimonials from his family members alluding to the pilot displaying erratic behaviour a few weeks before the missing flight, as well as rumours that he has been recently estranged from his wife and family, have been both revealed and later consistently denied the search area where it is believed the plane crashed, has changed several times, but a group of countries are continuing to negotiate on how to fund the next phase of the sonar search, which will cover an area of 21,600 square miles countries involved in the search include malaysia, australia, the united states, china, japan, britain, south korea and new zealand earlier this month it was revealed that the australian government expects to spend around £50 million on the search by july 2015

a 'master key' that could give hackers complete access to mobile phones and tablets running google's android software (logo pictured) has been revealed a ‘master key’ that could give hackers complete access to mobile phones and tablets running google’s android software has been revealed the bug could allow hackers to hijack phones, allowing them to steal data, listen in to calls or send junk email and text messages researchers say the loophole has been present since 2009, and claim around 900 million devices are at risk jeff forristal of bluebox, the firm which uncovered the key, said the implications of the discovery were ‘huge’ ‘it can essentially take over the normal functioning of the phone and control any function thereof,’ he wrote on the firm’s blog forristal said the firm made google aware of its finding in february however, the firm did not respond to mailonline’s request for a comment the bug takes advantage of the way android handles cryptographic verification of the apps installed on the phone android uses the cryptographic signature as a way to check that an app or program is legitimate and to ensure it has not been tampered with the bluebox team found a way to bypass these checks, tricking android so malicious changes to apps go unnoticed any app or program written to exploit the bug would enjoy the same access to a phone that the legitimate version of that application enjoyed ‘installation of a trojan application from the device manufacturer can grant the application full access to android system and all applications (and their data) currently installed,’ wrote forristal ‘the application then not only has the ability to read arbitrary application data on the device (email, sms messages, documents, etc), retrieve all stored account & service passwords, it can essentially take over the normal functioning of the phone and control any function thereof (make arbitrary phone calls, send arbitrary sms messages, turn on the camera, and record calls) ‘finally, and most unsettling, is the potential for a hacker to take advantage of the always on, always connected, and always moving (therefore hard to detect) nature of these “zombie” mobile devices to create a botnet’ researchers say the loophole has been present since 2009 and claim around 900 million devices are at risk one third party device, the samsung galaxy s4 (pictured right), already has a fix for the flaw, but that google’s own nexus handset (left) does not forristal is planning to reveal more information about the problem at the black hat hacker conference being held in august this year, and said the bug could have huge implications for firms who allow people to connect their android phones and tablet to secure company networks he confirmed that one third party device, the samsung galaxy s4, already has a fix for the flaw, but that google’s own nexus handset did not however, experts say that there is currently no evidence that the flaw has been exploited ‘i imagine that google would move quickly to add some logic to look for such attacks,’ dan wallach, a professor specializing in android security in the computer science department of rice university, told the ars technica website ‘without that available to an attacker, this is likely to only be relevant for android users who use third party app stores (which have lots of other problems)’ mcafee mobile security has identified a new android trojan embedded in a pirated copy of an exclusive app from rapper jay z on the surface, the malware app functions identically to the legitimate app however, in the background, the malware sends info about the infected device to an external server every time the phone restarts the malware then attempts to download and install additional packages the only visible indication that a user is infected comes via a time based trigger that is set to activate on 4th july, independence day in the us on that day, the malware will replace the wallpaper on the infected device with an altered image of president obama that comments on recent events in the us the security company thinks that there is a hacktivist agenda behind the trojan but has not ruled out the possibility that additional malware may target financial transactions or other data a new android trojan embedded in a pirated copy of an app (pictured) from rapper jay z has been identified on the surface it works like the real app but is actually trying to install additional packages to an individual's phone it's real identity only became clear on 4 july

most of us would tremble when faced with a venomous spider or a dangerously high cliff edge but one woman has a rare disease meaning she is biologically unable to feel fear the us woman, known to doctors as sm, has been put into life threatening situations but remains completely unfazed she didn’t panic at being held at gunpoint and knifepoint – and didn’t even call the police after these attacks she was also nearly beaten to death by her first husband, but never felt scared a us woman known to doctors as sm is biologically unable to feel the emotion fear, due to a genetic condition which has caused the part of her brain responsible for being scared to waste away when faced with snakes that could be poisonous to her, she is so curious she has to be restrained from touching them while doctors have been studying sm for more than a decade, she has never been interviewed before this is because the team of neuroscientists, from the university of iowa, looking into her condition, said if her identity was made public people could easily take advantage of her so dr daniel tranel, of the university of iowa, carried out the interview and passed it on to journalists at npr radio station, to be used in their invisibilia podcast dr tranel began by asking sm, a 44 year old mother of three, to describe what fear is ‘well, that’s what i’m trying to – to be honest, i truly have no clue’ she replied she said she does remember being scared of a catfish her father had caught when she was a young girl, as she didn’t want it to bite her, but that was the only time she can remember experiencing the emotion and not being scared has led to some hair raising situations urbach–wiethe disease is a rare genetic disorder scientists have only identified 400 cases since it's discovery the symptoms of the disease vary greatly from individual to individual they could include a hoarse voice, bumps around the eyes, easily damaged skin with wounds that don't heal easily other symptoms include  dry, wrinkly skin, and a general thickening of the skin and mucous membranes in some cases there is also a hardening of brain tissue in which can lead to epilepsy and other abnormalities, such as a lack of fear, in sm's case the disease is typically not life threatening and patients do not show a decreased life span when her sons were small she was walking to the shop when a man on a park bench called her over she said: ‘he grabbed me by the shirt, and he held a knife to my throat and told me he was going to cut me 'i told him i said: “go ahead and cut me” and i said, “i'll be coming back, and i'll hunt your ass” the man let her go, and she went home, but she didn’t call the police after this event, as she didn’t see the danger sm has a rare genetic condition called urbach wiethe disease, which causes parts of her brain to harden and waste away, npr reports urbach wiethe disease has three main symptoms: people with the condition have a hoarse voice, small bumps around their eyes and calcium deposits in the brain these deposits cause parts of the brain to calcify and harden, which can lead to epilepsy or other abnormalities in sm’s case, almond like structures called amygdala found deep in the brain have calcified and wasted away the amygdalae are crucial to the human fear response, and so sm is now literally unable to feel the emotion fear normally, in situations that might cause danger, the amygdalae would send signals to the body that would induce symptoms of fear: the heart to start racing and the palms to sweat sm has urbach wiethe disease, which causes calcium deposits to form in her brain deposits have formed in her brain's amygdalae (one of which is pictured in red), which are responsible for the fear response but for sm, as this bit of her brain doesn’t exist, she doesn’t experience these symptoms in situations others would find scary she is also unable to recognise a fearful facial expression on another person doctors note this is an isolated defect: she has normal intelligence and feels other emotions such as joy, sadness, anger in the same way as others scientists have identified only about 400 people worldwide with urbach wiethe disease university of iowa scientists were able to induce fear in her in 2013, when they made her inhale carbon dioxide even at low concentrations, if the amygdala detects carbon dioxide in the body, it normally triggers fear and panic as it is a sign of possible suffocation scientists predicted that sm wouldn’t panic after inhaling the gas, but in fact, she did professor antonio damasio, a neuroscientist at the university of iowa who has been studying sm, says what is remarkable about her is that her lack of fear means she has no traumatic memories when faced with poisonous snakes that would make most people shiver with fright, sm is so curious she has to be held back from touching them she has also been held at knifepoint, at gunpoint and nearly been beaten to death her genetic condition meant she didn't feel scared in these situations and has no bad memories if bad events happen in sm’s life, they are not registered as bad or threatening, and she doesn’t experience them as such, he said even if her husband almost beat her to death, the memory is not traumatic, and leaves no 'emotional footprint' which could cause psychological problems for others ‘if you have no fear, more terrible things will happen to you, but you don't personally experience them as terrible,’ professor damasio told npr journalists ‘if you have a lot of fear, fewer bad things are likely to happen, but it's very probable that your life is more painful to you so is it better to be fearful or fearless?’ scientists are now looking into whether sm’s case could help others with traumatic memories, such as soldiers with post traumatic stress disorder, according to livescience finding treatments that could dampen down the activity of the amygdala could help people with ptsd, researchers believe

david cameron has slammed britain's top bosses for awarding themselves a massive 49 per cent pay rise in the last year business chiefs at the uk’s top 100 companies can now expect to take home an average £27million as households suffer the biggest squeeze on incomes since the 1920s, according to new figures the massive salaries are 113 times the national average of £24,000 for a worker in the private sector, where salaries have risen just three per cent in the last year anger: david cameron, in perth, australia today for the commonwealth heads of government meeting, considers the news about fat cat pay from the uk speaking from the commonwealth heads of government meeting in perth, australia, the prime minister said: 'there needs to be responsibility boards have got to think when they are making pay awards, is this the responsible thing to do? 'we need all these figures published and known so that we can compare and contrast, so shareholders know what they are paying for 'we need accountability to strengthen the hands of shareholders so that they feel they are taking responsibility for remuneration in the boardroom 'this is a concerning report, particularly at a time when household budgets are very tight and people have difficult circumstances' the city of london: fat cat bosses and bankers can expect bumper bonuses despite the rest of britain feeling the squeeze he called for 'transparency, accountability, responsibility' in boardroom pay, urging that all awards must be justifiable 'everyone, whether they are in public life, whether they are in private enterprise, they all need to be able to justify the decisions they make about pay,' he added the extravagant pay packages enjoyed by every member of the boardroom, from the chief executive down to far less high profile roles, were revealed in research by incomes data services (ids) in fact according to the report, chief executives and finance directors – usually considered the number two at a firm – did not do as well as more junior staff the average chief executive saw their total payout increase by 435 per cent to £3,855,172, while the rise for a finance director was up 341 per cent to £2,001,515 other directors enjoyed the largest rise, as they took home 665 per cent more in pay and perks, to the tune of £2,260,033 on average backlash: the occupy london protest continues in the square at st paul's cathedral, with many very angry about capitalist britain the bonus element of the average executive pay packet increased by 23 per cent, from £737,624 in 2010 to £906,044 former liberal democrat treasury spokesman lord oakeshott said: ‘these greedy bosses sit on each others’ remuneration committees and wave through each others’ offensive pay rises an average rise of 49 per cent includes vast rewards for failure while employees, shareholders and customers suffer fury: lord oakeshott says a minority are getting 'vast rewards for failure while employees, shareholders and customers suffer' ‘many ftse bosses then have the brass neck to whine about paying 50 per cent tax 'it’s high time they showed leadership and restraint’ the revelation on corporate pay comes as shell reported bumper profits of £44billion in just three months, after reaping the benefit of the high oil prices hitting motorists at the petrol pumps in a further insult to struggling families, a separate survey revealed city firms will pay out £42billion this year in bonuses alone the sum, revealed by city think tank the centre for economics and business research will be handed out despite pledges by successive governments to crack down on the culture of corporate excess meanwhile, ordinary households are an average of £15 a week worse off than a year ago, thanks to spiralling bills and pay squeezes earlier this week the governor of the bank of england mervyn king said workers in britain had been hit by the biggest fall in living standards ‘in living memory’ the income data services report on fat cat pay used information from the latest available published accounts of ftse100 companies, for the financial year ending between february 2010 and april 2011 author steve tatton said the companies would find it hard to explain why executives were being so handsomely rewarded while their employees struggle to get by ‘the pay gap between the boardroom and the shop floor does not yet show any signs of closing,’ he said brendan barber, general secretary of the tuc, added that the boardroom increases amounted to a ‘brazen stitch up’ he said: ‘with the ftse 100 down on last year and most staff getting pay rises of less than two per cent, these bumper settlements prove that ceo pay bears no resemblance to performance or economic reality’ one of the key factors behind the inflation squeeze on household finances has been the high price of oil, which has been above $100 per barrel all year but high fuel costs – exacerbated by the unrest in the middle east – spelled good news for shell the oil giant made £44billion in the third quarter of the year, the equivalent of around £48million per day petrol prices are up almost 18 per cent since last september, according to data collected by asda, adding to the pressure on incomes the £42billion bonus pool shared out in london’s financial district is actually 38 per cent down on the previous year and a long way below the £116billion paid out in 2007/08, just before the credit crunch ravaged the global economy

they don’t look like the typical criminal the vast majority are women very few actually attend the court hearings to which they are summoned instead, a prosecutor simply races through scores of near identical cases, repeating a well rehearsed formula of allegations, pleas and excuses often the magistrates fine the perpetrators in just a matter of seconds the crime? tv licence dodging every week, in courts across england and wales, almost 3,000 people are issued with fines of up to £1,000 for not having a tv licence unlike non payment of a gas or electricity bill, failure to pay the £14550 annual fee results in a criminal record the licence fee raises £372 billion a year for the bbc it is illegal to watch or record live television without a licence with more than 150,000 people convicted a year and courts being clogged (culture secretary sajid javid has said that 10 per cent of magistrates court cases concern tv licence dodgers), the government has called for a review of whether non payment should be classified as a crime meanwhile, court staff are being forced to set aside entire days, once a week or every fortnight, to process such cases and many city magistrates are too busy with more important crimes and are farming out tv licence cases to small regional courts the licence fee raises £372 billion a year for the bbc it is illegal to watch or record live television using a tv, computer, tablet or even mobile phone if you are an adult under the age of 75 without a licence while the offence normally results in a fine, it is not punishable by imprisonment but you can be jailed for non payment of a fine — with about 50 offenders a year being jailed the problem has become more pressing in recent years because fewer households have traditional tv sets as more people watch ‘catch up’ tv on tablets, computers and smartphones according to ofcom, the telecommunications watchdog, 300,000 fewer homes had a television at the end of last year, compared to the previous year back in 2011, the bbc gave the business process management firm capita an eight year £560 million contract to administer the licence the company employs 1,400 staff to chase non payers — many on target related bonuses i decided to spend a day at two typical courts — warwickshire justice centre and wigan magistrates’ court — to observe how our justice system is getting bogged down by countless tv licence dodgers, most of them women what is remarkable is how few of them attend hearings magistrates listen to a representative from tv licensing (technically a prosecutor) outline each case and then they take advice from a legal advisor otherwise, apart from the clerk and a court usher, the room is empty it is a perfunctory affair in wigan, 141 of the 187 convicted were women (75 per cent) of the 171 warwickshire cases, 134 were female (78 per cent) (picture posed by models) usually, non payers have returned a form registering their guilty plea, adding details of their income and any mitigating circumstances to be considered in their absence during that one day in wigan, £35,000 of fines (including costs) were issued to 187 people, only four of whom attended the court the eldest was a disabled 69 year old woman fined £195 the youngest was an 18 year old unemployed woman fined £195 for not having a licence for one week the biggest fine, of £500, was for a woman convicted of the offence for a third time of the four women who turned up, two were near tears as they explained how money troubles had got on top of them four others had sent notes to plead not guilty, which meant that a trial date had to be set — at yet more public expense in some cases, people who had failed to respond to letters about non payment were convicted in their absence in warwickshire, 171 cases were processed in a similarly methodical way all had admitted guilt again, only four defendants turned up — in the hope of persuading, in person, the magistrates to issue a small fine by saying they were on a low income in total, around £60,000 in fines, including court costs, were handed down in wigan, 141 of the 187 convicted were women (75 per cent) of the 171 warwickshire cases, 134 were female (78 per cent) those figures are reflected nationally in 2013, a total of 122,686 women were prosecuted and 106,932 convicted that compared with 55,099 men prosecuted, and 46,024 convicted this is in stark contrast to other crimes where men make up the vast majority of offenders this begs the question: why are so many more women being caught without a tv licence than men? the bbc glibly says ‘convictions are a matter for the courts’ and capita, which takes cases to court on behalf of the bbc, says that when its staff go to the homes of people suspected of not having a licence, they take statements from ‘any responsible adult’ present — regardless of age or gender so, perhaps, the answer is that women are most likely to be at home when enforcement officers call however, others think there is another explanation michael shakespeare, from kent, who challenged the bbc in a test case over the need to pay for a licence, thinks that women are more easily intimidated he says: ‘a single mother or woman pensioner who is on their own probably won’t stand up to the officers when they knock on the door they probably don’t know their rights either’ in his own battle with the bbc, mr shakespeare ensured that all his equipment at home could not receive a live tv signal and, instead, he watched catch up tv through the internet, for which you do not need a tv licence half of those jailed for the non payment of licence fee fines are women, yet only 4 per cent of the country's prison population are female even so, he was summoned to court for non payment of his tv licence in a landmark case, a judge found he had no case to answer andrew bridgen, a tory mp who is campaigning to make non payment of the tv licence a civil offence, also believes that the bbc is ‘unnecessarily criminalising’ women he says: ‘they will prosecute whoever is at home when they call, and sadly that tends to be women’ he points to official figures that show that half of all those jailed for non payment of fines imposed for not having a tv licence, are women, yet only 4 per cent of the prison population are female the mp says that, in some cases, women who have felt so intimidated by enforcement officers have bought a licence when they don’t even own a tv the bbc certainly pursues the licence with some vigour official figures show that, perhaps, it has done so with a bit too much alacrity for it has been forced to pay more than £100,000 in compensation to 2,500 people wrongly pursued for not having licences one man who claims to have been a victim of such techniques is peter troy, from county durham, who complained that licensing staff had been unnecessarily aggressive when demanding he buy a licence for an empty home that had been left to him after his mother had died he says he almost bought a tv licence ‘in panic’ because he was so worried ‘i was shaken up by the brazen way they could bully people in their own homes,’ he says despite his explanation that no one lived at the property, he said threats of a summons for non payment continued he was eventually awarded £250 compensation after saying he would, in turn, sue the bbc for harassment so, what do magistrates who have to deal with all these cases think? malcolm richardson, deputy chairman of the magistrates’ association, says that his members say criminal proceedings for failure to pay the tv licence fee is ‘too severe’ ‘it doesn’t serve the interests of justice to lock someone up for not paying like non payment of utility bills, they should be dealt with by the civil law we would certainly welcome the law being changed’ john o’connell, director of taxpayers’ alliance, says it is ‘stupid’ that non payment of a tv licence is a crime ‘these unnecessary criminal proceedings clutter up the court system and cost taxpayers an extraordinary amount of course everybody should obey the law, but the punishment is totally disproportionate to the offence as new technologies change the way we watch television, the tv licence in its current state is unsustainable in the long term’ even a tv licensing spokesperson says the organisation would ‘prefer not to prosecute’ and that the licence is ‘good value at 40p a day’ he adds: ‘we know some struggle financially, which is why we offer a range of payments methods, including small weekly cash instalments and why we work with more than 400 national and local organisations to offer help and advice ‘but it is only right that we take action against persistent non payers on behalf of those who do pay’ back in the courts, those women i spoke to after their appearance were contrite for having not paid for their tv licence but they certainly did not believe their behaviour was criminal

scientists have confirmed that 15 pounds of meteorite from mars fell in morocco last july it is only the fifth time in history scientists have chemically confirmed martian meteorites that people witnessed falling the last shower that was found 'fresh' and thus uncontaminated by earth chemicals   was in 1962 the rocks are incredibly valuable 10 times more precious than gold because no mars rover or lander has yet returned martian material to earth the only source for martian rock is these showers a martian meteorite recovered in december 2011 near foumzgit, morocco following a meteorite shower believed to have occurred in july 2011 the meteorites could be crucial to our search for life on mars the fireball was spotted in the sky six months ago, but the rocks weren’t discovered on the ground in north africa until the end of december scientists and collectors of meteorites are ecstatic, and already the rocks are fetching huge sums a special committee of meteorite experts, including some nasa scientists, confirmed the test results tuesday they certified that 15 pounds of meteorite recently collected came from mars the biggest rock weighs over 2 pounds all the known martian rocks on earth add up to less than 240 pounds the surface of mars: scientists believe that the meteorites came from an ancient impact on the planet astronomers think millions of years ago something big smashed into mars and sent rocks hurtling through the solar system after a long journey through space, one of those rocks plunged through earth’s atmosphere, splitting into smaller pieces most other martian meteorite samples sat around on earth for millions of years or at the very least decades before they were discovered, which makes them tainted with earth materials and life these new rocks are purer the last time a martian meteorite fell and was found fresh was in 1962 most of the martian rocks on earth have been around for centuries or longer and have been found in antarctica or the desert they look so similar to dark earth rocks that if they fell in other places, such as maryland, they would blend right in and never be discovered, irving said scientists can tell they are martian, because as mars is more geologically active, its rocks tend to be much younger millions of years old instead of hundreds of millions or more than those from the moon or asteroids the meteorites were scooped up by dealers and sold on fetching huge sums as material from mars is so rare the total amount of martian rock on earth is 240lb the new samples were scooped up by dealers from those who found them even before the official certification, scientists at nasa, museums and universities scrambled to buy or trade these meteorites 'it’s a free sample from mars that’s what these are, except you have to pay the dealers for it,' said university of alberta meteorite expert chris herd, who heads the committee that certified the discovery he has already bought a chunk of meteorite and said he was thrilled just to hold it, calling the rock 'really spectacular' one of the key decisions the scientists made tuesday was to officially connect these rocks to the fiery plunge witnessed by people and captured on video last summer the announcement and the naming of these meteorites called tissint came from the international society for meteoritics and planetary science, which is the official group of 950 scientists that confirms and names meteorites meteorite dealer darryl pitt, who sold a chunk to herd, said he charges $11,000 to $22,500 an ounce and has sold most of his supply already at that price, the new martian rock costs about 10 times more than gold 'it’s scientifically invaluable,' herd said 'these are really beautiful specimens it’s a rare type, so fresh and aesthetically pleasing' because known martian meteorite falls happen only once every 50 years or so 1815 in france, 1865 in india, 1911 in egypt and 1962 in nigeria this is a once in a career or even one in a lifetime event
mars nasa first 1962
rare shower is first found 'fresh' since 1962 could be crucial for search for life on mars only source for mars rock no nasa mission has returned any rocks fetch 10 times the price of gold

he's got all kinds of weapons and he was trained to use them,' murphy said 'i believe if he wanted to make a scene or cause problems, he very well could have but it's clear that he didn't' gonzalez was arrested friday inside the presidential residence with a knife in his pants after making it over the fence and running across the lawn, the secret service said according to agents who arrested him, gonzalez said that he was desperate to see the president to warn him about 'the atmosphere collapsing' president obama and his daughters had left for camp david via helicopter just minutes before gonzalez allegedly rushed the northern entrance running for it: the intruder can be seen running across the lawn and towards the white house on friday according to a criminal complaint obtained by abc news, authorities found 'several assault rifles' in a vehicle when he was arrested after speeding and eluding state police in virginia in july after nearly crashing, gonzalez was eventually pulled over virginia state police told abc that he had a map of dc with a circle drawn around the white house when he was arrested they also allegedly found 11 different weapons in his car then on august 25, he was stopped while walking along the fence of the white house in that incident, authorities found he had a hatchet in his waist band, according to abc he allowed cops to search his car, but they found no further weapons or ammo and he was not arrested the army said gonzalez enlisted in july 1997 and was assigned to the 10th cavalry regiment, 2nd brigade, 4th infantry division, at fort hood, texas at the time, he listed his home as puerto rico heightened security: uniformed secret service officers walk along the fence on the north side of the white house in washington after the intruder

his retirement in late 2012 gonzalez served in iraq from october 2006 to january 2008 samantha bell, gonzalez's ex wife, said that after his second tour in iraq, gonzalez began carrying a 45 on his hip at all times he would also kept three or four rifles and shotguns behind the doors in their home, said bell, who remarried and now lives in southern indiana she claims she split up with him in 2010 because of his worsening mental condition bell described how gonzalez kept the blinds drawn and would repeatedly go downstairs during the night to make sure the doors were locked and the oven was off she said she once woke up in the middle of the night to find gonzalez standing at the foot of the bed and staring at her she said he told her he was simply watching her sleep 'it was really odd and i didn't know how to take that,' she said 'i just couldn't deal with it i didn't want to deal with it, i couldn't — that's the whole reason i left he was so paranoid he was starting to make me paranoid 'omar is a good guy, he's just got some issues that he needs help with i think this is a cry out for help, what he's done he really does need help i just hope he can get it' second arrest: kevin carr, 19, was taken in by officers on saturday after allegedly driving a car up to a screening point outside the white house and then refusing to leave when he was asked in the wake of his attempt on the white house, the secret service announced new, tougher security the agency was criticized for not apprehending gonzalez sooner, and admitted their performance was 'not acceptable,' leading to new measures being put in place in a statement, secret service officials said: 'the challenge of securing the white house complex from security threats is ever present 'although last night the officers showed tremendous restraint and discipline in dealing with this subject, the location of gonzalez's arrest is not acceptable 'in addition to the criminal investigation of gonzalez by the secret service's washington field office, director julia pierson immediately ordered the secret service's office of professional responsibility to conduct a comprehensive after action review of the incident' the statement continued: 'in the interim, director pierson has ordered the immediate enhancement of officer patrols and surveillance capabilities along the pennsylvania avenue fence line around the white house complex these measures went into effect last night' in court: gonzalez appeared at a federal court proceeding at this courthouse in washington dc on monday president obama has backed the agency a white house spokesman said: 'the president has full confidence in the secret service and is grateful to the men and women who day in and day out protect himself, his family and the white house' however, press secretary josh earnest stressed that providing security to the white house was a 'complicated business' because of the number of tourists that visit on a daily basis homeland security secretary jeh johnson also encouraged the public 'not second guess the judgment of security officers who had only seconds to act' he insisted in a statement issued today that the public should wait 'until all the facts are in' before passing judgement on the security services barriers:  the secret service announced that 'officer patrols and surveillance capabilities' would be enhanced in the wake of the two attempts by intruders to reach the white house increased security: the measures came into affect along the pennsylvania avenue fence line around the white house complex last night the two block stretch of pennsylvania avenue in front of the white house's north gates has been closed to vehicle traffic since may 1995 president bill clinton ordered its immediate closure in an effort to prevent a potential car or truck bomb attack even so, there have been a number of recent breaches that have caused the secret service and capitol police to step last september a man

a grainy sonar image captured off an uninhabited pacific island could show the remains of amelia earhart’s doomed plane which disappeared in 1937 the international group for historic aircraft recovery (tighar) say the latest evidence could be a step closer to finding out the mystery behind her disappearance earhart, then 39, was on the final stage of an an ambitious around the world flight along the equator in a twin engine lockheed electra when she and navigator fred noonan disappeared the image was captured off an uninhabited tropical island in the southwestern pacific republic of kiribati and showed an 'anomaly' at a depth of 600 feet in the waters discovery: a grainy sonar image captured off an uninhabited pacific island could show the remains of amelia earhart's doomed plane which disappeared in 1937 aim: the purpose of the expedition was to test the hypothesis that the earhart aircraft, after landing on the reef at gardner island (now nikumaroro), was subsequently washed over the reef edge, broke up in the surf, and sank location: the anomaly is in the catchment area at the base of the second cliff 'what initially got our attention is that there is no other sonar return like it in the entire body of data collected,' ric gillespie, executive director of tighar, told discovery news 'it is truly an anomaly, and when you're looking for man made objects against a natural background, anomalies are good,' he added tighar have spent years investigating earhart's last, fateful flight and now according to their researchers, a sonar image shows a strong return from a narrow object roughly 22 feet long oriented southwest/northeast on the slope near the base of an underwater cliff this ties in with a theory that earhart was able to put her aircraft down safely on the reef, but it was washed off the edge before aircraft searching for her were able to spot it analysis: a graphic shows the area looked at by tighar team area: a map showing an aerial view of the distance between the debris field and the bevington object seen in a 1937 photo taken by british colonial service officer eric bevington high tech: tools utilised by tighar included a multi beam sonar hull mounted onto an expedition vessel nikumaroro, uninhabited in earhart's time, and a mere 37 miles long by 12 miles wide, is about 300 miles southeast of howland island the holder of several aeronautical records, including the first woman to cross the atlantic by air, earhart had set off from new guinea to refuel at howland island for a final long distance hop to california in what turned out to be her final radio message, she declared she was unable to find howland and that fuel was running low several search and rescue missions ordered the next day by then president franklin roosevelt turned up no trace of earhart or noonan, who were eventually presumed dead at sea enduring riddle: american aviator amelia earhart, posing by her plane in long beach, california, in 1930, disappeared while flying over the pacific in 1937 fate: the electra taking off from oakland airport at alameda, california, on the first leg of her proposed world spanning flight nikumaroro island: researchers will scour the island for clues and crash debris tighar are operating under the hypothesis that the duo survived the crash, reached gardner island which was then a british possession and now known as nikumaroro and managed to survive there for an unknown period of time tighar believe that some key components of earharts aircraft such as the heavy pratt & whitney engines may still be left last year they returned to the island again equipped with a multi beam sonar array mounted on a ship to construct a map of the underwater topography off the western end of the atoll they also used a autonomous underwater vehicle to collect data along the west end of nikumaroro, as well as a remote operated vehicle capable of reaching depths of 3,000 feet, which produced hours upon hours of high definition video missing: earhart and fred noonan, left, before they set off on their doomed flight right: earhart as a young pilot celebrated: earhart posing in southampton after completing a successful flight across the atlantic ocean but their recent expedition faced a number of technical problems coupled by the atoll’s difficult environment when the search failed to turn up dramatic and conclusive evidence proving that earhart perished on the island, some media outlets were quick to declare the $22million mission a failure but on reflection the team realised they had found an 'anomaly' in the vast data they had collected discussing the discovery on their website this week, they wrote: 'the better a piece of evidence looks, the harder you have to try to disqualify it so far, the harder we’ve looked at this anomaly, the better it looks maybe the anomaly is a coral feature that just happens to give a sonar return unlike any other coral feature on the entire reef slope discovery: this bottle of st joseph's lineament was found on a desert island in the area amelia earhart is believed to have crashed on an ill fated voyage around the world in 1937 clue: this hunk of glass is from a bottle of campania's italian balm made in 1933 amelia's freckles: reassembled jar fragments (left) found alongside other artifacts on an island have been found to resemble a freckle ointment (right) possibly used by earhart cosmetic: one of the substances found on the island was identified as rouge from the early 20th century 'maybe it’s a sunken fishing boat that isn’t mentioned in any of the historical literature maybe it’s the boat nobody knows about that that brought the castaway nobody missed who died at the seven site maybe it’s pure coincidence that it‘s the right size and shape to be the electra wreckage' sustaining the search are clues worthy of detective story, including items from the 1930s previously discovered on the island such as a jar of face cream, a penknife blade, the heel of a woman's shoe and a bit of plexiglas all believed to belong to earhart and her plane skeletons of birds apparently cooked over a campfire have also contributed to the mystery, and settlers who reached nikumaroro after 1937 have spoken of the existence of aircraft wreckage conspiracy theories about earhart's final moments have flourished for years one contended that earhart was held by japanese imperial forces as a spy another claimed she completed her flight, but changed her identity and settled in new jersey earhart's story as well as her mysterious demise have captivated america for decades she has been portrayed on the big screen by a list actresses like diane keaton, amy adams and hillary swank intrigue: in her day, earhart was extremely popular, but her mysterious death has kept that fame alive 75 years later the most widely accepted theory is that the aircraft ran out of fuel and ditched in the sea there have been several searches by many different professionals eager to solve the mystery, but none have been proven another popular theory is that they landed on the island of nikumaroro in the pheonix islands, 350 miles southeast of howland island and fended for themselves for several months until they succumbed to injury or disease improvised tools and bits of plexiglas that are consistent with that of an electra window were found on the island a few theorists reckon that she earhart was spying on japan and had been captured and executed this theory has been discounted by the american authorities and press a rumour claimed that she was one of many women sending messages on tokyo rose, an english language japanese propaganda station designed to attack the allies' morale an australian aircraft engineer said he found a map that showed earhart and noonan may have turned round to try and refuel but crashed before getting to an airstrip the most whacky theory is that she was still alive and had a different identity a woman from new jersey successfully sued for $15m in damages from the author of a book who pursued this theory

he is more used to building exclusive, minimalist buildings however, new york architect ben pell has turned his hand to a very different kind of structure a pillow fort following exhaustive testing with his two children, he has revealed the best way to construct a living room hideaway new york architect ben pell found there were three different types of fort tunnel forts, buttress forts and compound forts architect ben pell identified three types of fort tunnel, buttress and compound tunnel forts are usually too small for adults to get into buttress or compound forts are not limited by the furniture but involve moving things around (and even using the family dog) writing on the blog fatherly, he explained there are three different types of fort tunnel forts, buttress forts and compound forts he also believes that many children manage to trap themselves inside forts “kids, left to their own devices, pile up pillows and then figure out how to get inside 'or, they’ll build it around themselves and then they can’t leave without destroying it' pell, who in his day job work for pell overton, urged children to think like an architect he warned prospective builders should first sort the available pillows based on which ones are best for walls and which ones are a good for laying on inside the finished fort over the past twenty years, he has worked on a variety of projects, and also taught on the design faculty of the syracuse university school of architecture and the pratt institute, and has been a regular member of the yale school of architecture faculty since 2005 however, for this project, he believes that using the available space is key 'tunnel forts are usually too small to get into, so that’s what my kids build if they want their own little fort tunnel forts are usually too small for adults to get into something children seem to prefer 'with a buttress or compound fort, you’re not limited by the furniture, but you might have to move things around a little bit to create space' he also advised people to take advantage of any unusual materials that happen to be nearby such as the family dog “he’s a lazy old lab, so sometimes we just tuck the sheets under him while he’s sleeping 'they make good weights' a classic tunnel fort designed by pell's two children tunnel forts are usually too small to get into, so that’s what my kids build if they want their own little fort,' he said

when geraldine rowing was told by doctors she needed a liver transplant she feared she would face a long wait for a donor organ at an appointment with her doctor she mentioned in passing that she was a non identical twin it was a long shot, but he suggested her sister, annemarie atha, be tested to see if she was a match the results shocked the sisters despite not looking the same and their mother telling them they were non identical the pair were in fact genetically identical they have now become the first identical twins to undergo a live liver transplant in the uk when geraldine rowing, left, was put on the transplant list she feared she would have to wait for a donor organ but her non identical twin annemarie atha, right, was prepared to be tested to see if she was a match the results revealed the sisters, who had always believed they were non identical because they don't look the same, were in fact, genetically identical annemarie, left, donated part of her liver to her sister in the first live liver transplant between identical twins, carried out in the uk ms atha, 48, said she did not think twice about donating part of her liver to her twin, when she became ill she said it was an added bonus to discover, despite everything they had been told, that they were genetically identical it meant ms rowing does not need to take a cocktail of drugs to stop her body rejecting the new organ 'i would just like to say thank you very much annemarie,' ms rowing said as she hugged her sister at st james's hospital, in leeds, where the operation took place 'thank you from the bottom of my heart' ms rowing's liver had been damaged by cancer a few years ago, prompting doctors to recommend she was added to the transplant list she told her doctor she was a non identical twin and he suggested doing tests the results revealed the sisters, who live in rothwell, near leeds, were genetically identical despite not looking exactly the same 'mum always said that because there were two placentas when we were born, we weren't identical,' said ms atha 'so we've grown up believing we're not identical because geraldine's got a wider smile than me and she's got a squarer face than me geraldine, second left, and annemarie, second right, are pictured with consultant liver surgeons raj prasad, left and ernest hidalgo, who performed the operation at leeds' st james university hospital 'we've both got the silly same nose and i'm a teeny, teeny bit taller than geraldine so mum always said 'you're not identical' 'but they said you're identical enough to do the transplant' the sisters went through the operation in april and ms rowing said she is feeling much better 'i'm feeling better by the day,' she said 'it was a while ago and i still get tired but i can't thank everybody enough 'i walk round and nobody knows that i've had a liver transplant' ms atha said: 'it's nice to have geraldine back to normal again' consultant liver surgeon raj prasad, who did the operation, said live liver transplants where the donor is a living person who donates a section of their organ for the operation are getting more common he said st james's did their first one in 2007 and will do around 20 this year around one in seven of all liver transplants mr prasad said the main problem was putting the donor an otherwise healthy person through a major and potentially life threatening operation but he said it meant the ill person did not have to wait for an organ to become available from a dead donor he added the benefits of identical twins having the operation was massive he said it was even more so in the case of ms rowing as taking immuno suppressant drugs would increase her risk of further cancer mr prasad said: 'it's an absolutely massive advantage which is god or nature's gift it's a dream' genetics expert, dr anand saggar, a senior consultant in clinical genetics at st george's in london said ms rowing and ms atha's case is 'surprising but not unheard of' he said non identical twins are formed from two eggs, which are fertilised by two different sperm 'effectively they are siblings that just happen to be born in one womb at the same time,' dr saggar told mailonline 'they are two completely different siblings born separately' in the case of identical twins, one egg is fertilised by one sperm, creating an embryo that splits in two in the womb the fact annemarie and geraldine were found to be genetically identical meant geraldine didn't have to take anti rejection drugs as her body accepted the new organ as if it was her own dr saggar said the twins' mother's justification that they had two placentas does not mean they were non identical if the embryo divides early on in the pregnancy, each baby will be grow within its own placenta the later the split happens, the more likely it is identical twins will grow in one, single placenta 'the fact they had two placentas means the split happened early on the later the embryo divides the less likely it is there will be two placentas,' dr saggar said once an embryo has split to create twins, there are a number of factors that will determine how each baby will look later in life dr saggar told mailonline: 'people naively perhaps, believe identical twins should be absolutely identical because they have the same genes 'but that assumes that every element that controls us is dictated by a coding sequence 'you have to view the coding sequence and the human body as a complicated orchestra of genes 'the way a piece of music is played can alter the sound you get 'let's take a piece by mozart, two different orchestras will play the same piece differently 'there are different things that influence the expression of the same genes genetics expert, dr anand saggar, a senior consultant in clinical genetics at st george's in london said ms rowing and ms atha's case is 'surprising but not unheard of' he said many aspects will affect how identical twins look, and once an embryo has divided it is possible different gene mutations affect differing siblings 'epigenetics is the big thing everyone is talking about at the moment the coating, layering or shielding on genes which can express now or later 'and then there are spontaneous mutations that occur 'of course where a single embryo splits in two a spontaneous mutation could occur in just one half of the divide 'if the mutation happens before the embryo splits, it will depend on which half the mutation ends up as to which baby will be affected by it 'yes, of course we should expect twins to have similar hair colour and facial features 'but there are also other issues that can affect visual appearance 'nutrition influences growth, the risk of cardiovascular disease, so why not how big a person's nose is 'different placentas will mean different levels of nutrition 'there is also sometimes a situation known as blood stealing from one placenta to another which can alter things including growth rates 'yes, this is a surprising case but it is not unheard of'

'possessive' nathan lloyd put revenge porn on his ex girlfriend's instagram account, changed the password so she could not take it down and then called her a 's***' when she asked him to remove it a dumped boyfriend who posted a 'revenge porn' picture of his ex lover online has avoided jail and was instead ordered to attend a 'building better relationships' course nathan lloyd, 22, put up a photo of his former girlfriend in her underwear on her instagram account after they broke up then changed the password so she couldn't take it down despite a move to make the offence subject to a two year prison sentence, he walked free from court today after being told to attend a course where he'll learn about 'aggression and relationships' lloyd, of narberth, west wales, was sent the picture of the woman while he and she were still together but after they split up, he logged into her account on the photo sharing website and uploaded the picture lloyd also posted a video 'of a sexual nature' onto the page, magistrates heard a court heard how he then changed her password so she couldn't remove the revealing image prosecutor vaughan pritchard jones said: 'when they were together the defendant had access to the victim's instagram account 'she ended the relationship because she found him possessive and his behaviour unnerving 'she became aware that he had posted pictures of her instagram account she was unable to change the password and to get into her account and remove them, which she was very upset about' his victim begged lloyd to take the image down from her instagram where she had around 500 followers but haverfordwest magistrates court heard that lloyd responded with a torrent of abuse mr pritchard jones added: 'she sent him another message asking him to take it down he replied: 'f*** you, s***'' despite government moves to increase sentences for the offences, lloyd walked free from court today after being told he would have to attend a 'building better relationships' course with probation workers the course is made up of 24 weekly or half weekly sessions, divided into four modules, called 'foundation', 'my thinking', 'my emotions' and 'my relationships' the probation service says the course's aims are to 'help offenders gain a better understanding of themselves [and] show them how their personal issues play a part in the violence they show to their partners' the course description also states it 'supports offenders to discover their strengths and build on them to improve their relationships and helps offenders to develop their skills and learn new ones to overcome difficulties' lloyd admitted breaking the telecommunications act by sending an obscene or offensive image he also admitted charges of criminal damage and resisting a constable in the execution of their duty the court heard how he was arrested after kicking his ex girlfriend's door down when she refused to let him in lloyd was given a restraining order and told not to contact the victim or post anything about her on the internet he was also given a 24 month 'building better relationships order' and told to pay costs totalling £145 lloyd's case comes ahead of new legislation, expected to come into force later this year, that makes revenge porn a specific offence which could carry a maximum sentence of two years in december, the cps launched new guidelines on tackling domestic abuse which will include using technology to inflict misery on former partners under the new guidance, prosecutors will be encouraged to consider how revenge porn can be treated as a form of domestic abuse justice secretary chris grayling said last year: 'we want those who fall victim to this type of disgusting behaviour to know that we are on their side' luke king was jailed for posting the explicit image those convicted of revenge porn – the distribution of a private sexual image of someone without their consent and with the intention of causing them distress – could face two years in prison under new laws it will be made a specific offence, covering the sharing of images both online and offline, in the criminal justice and courts bill, which is currently going through parliament it will mean that images posted to social networking sites such as facebook and twitter will be caught by the offence, as well as those that are shared via text message images shared via email, on a website or the distribution of physical copies will also be caught victims of revenge porn have previously found it difficult to have pictures removed from the internet many sites where the images are hosted are based outside the uk, and requests to remove content are often ignored in some cases, asking for removal results in more attention being brought to the images the move to clamp down on 'revenge porn' came after 149 cases, the vast majority of them involving women victims, were reported over two and a half years only six led to prosecutions however, the new rules do not affect the consensual 'sexting' of images by under 18s this is already illegal – but police cannot monitor mobile photo messages last year, luke king, 21, of nottingham, became the first person to be jailed for revenge porn offences in the uk after his three year relationship ended he posted a number of explicit images of his former partner, and changed his whatsapp icon to one of the images king was eventually prosecuted under the protection from harassment act 1997 after he ignored two police warnings not to share the x rated images and was jailed for 12 weeks

the scout who recruited brown ideye and then left west bromwich albion ‘by mutual consent’ last month amid concerns that the club’s record signing had proved something of a flop, was feeling more than a little vindicated on saturday ‘ahem,’ tweeted stuart white — and understandably so, seeing as the nigerian has now scored four goals in three games clearly, all ideye needed was a manager capable of utilising the talent that persuaded west brom to pay £10million for him in the first place and while tony pulis admits a decent enough offer might well have led to ideye’s departure had carlton cole been signed in the last transfer window, the fact that the striker is now performing as effectively as he is amounts to a triumph for both player and manager ideye marked his second of this fa cup tie with a celebratory somersault, having demonstrated his athleticism with the power he generated from the header moments earlier west brom striker brown ideye celebrates his opener for the baggies after 20 minutes against west ham at the hawthorns craig dawson's cross is met by ideye, who tapped in his third goal in as many games as the home side took the lead on saturday west brom midfielder james morrison pumps his fist in celebration having scored a scorcher from long range at the hawthorns nigerian striker ideye made it 3 0 early in the second half with this header, which was his fourth goal in three games for the baggies england under 21 striker saido berahino runs away to celebrate having fired in west brom's fourth goal on saturday in the fa cup west brom (4 4 2):foster 7; dawson 7, mcauley 7, lescott 75, brunt 75; sessegnon 7 (mcmanaman 78, 6), yacob 7, morrison 8, gardner 75 (gamboa 90); ideye 85 (baird 86), berahino 75 subs not used: wisdom, olsson, myhill, pocognoli scorers: ideye 20 and 57, morrison 42, berahino 72 manager: tony pulis 8 west ham (4 4 2): adrian 6;

not a single effort on target in an opening half and not much of note in the second other than the dismissal morgan amalfitano of west ham (centre) and chris brunt (left) square up after a challenge during the second half at the hawthorns morgan amalfitano strikes brunt in the face during the second half at the hawthorns in full view of referee martin atkinson amalfitano gives referee martin atkinson no choice, having raised his arm into brunt's face, to send off the west ham substitute west brom manager tony pulis is all smiles before kick off at the hawthorns as he hoped to guide his side into the fa cup last eight carl jenkinson of west ham clears the ball under pressure from west brom forward stephane sessegnon in their fa cup clash craig gardner's first half strike clattered off the post as the hosts dominated proceedings to lead 2 0 at the break amalfitano had been on the pitch as a replacement for nolan for less than 10 minutes when a nasty challenge on chris brunt invited martin atkinson to show him a yellow card, before a shove in the face of the west brom captain prompted a straight red allardyce said: ‘it’s unprofessional, isn’t it? ‘the punishment is laid down in our code of conduct in terms of hands and getting sent off for something like that that will be dealt with, as always, internally and we move on but we’re so short of bodies it’s the last thing we need’ west brom, by contrast, were both composed and excellent here well organised, obviously this is a pulis team, after all but they were dynamic, determined, every inch a team desperate to secure a place in the quarter finals they too were playing their third game in six days but there were no heavy legs in the home side ideye displayed that sharpness to open the scoring and morrison did well to ride a challenge from mark noble before beating adrian with a terrific 25 yard strike just before half time ideye’s second came in the 57th minute when he produced a tremendous amount of power from a deflected stephane sessegnon cross and to compound west ham’s misery, a 72nd minute goal from berahino would then follow, beating adrian at his near post as thrilled as pulis was, he stressed the need to remain focused on premier league points and ideye? ‘the difference is confidence,’ he said and a new manager saido berahino (left) attempts to shield possession from cheikhou kouyate and alex song at the hawthorns in the fa cup fifth round west brom midfielder doubled the hosts' lead late in the first half with this sublime long range strike for tony pulis' side ideye is joined by west brom team mates saido berahino (centre) and craig dawson as they cruised to a comprehensive victory west ham manager sam allardyce (right) can't hide his frustration as his side suffered a heavy defeat at the hawthorns brown ideye is evidently delighted having added his second of the afternoon as west brom reached the fa cup quarter finals west ham's craig gardner contests for the ball with west brom's craig gardner during the fa cup fifth round match on saturday tony pulis erupts in celebration as his west brom side emphatically beat west ham 4 0 in the fa cup fifth round on saturday ideye was clearly head over heals with joy having found his scoring boots for west brom, that's four goals in his last three games click here for all the graphics, stats and heat maps from the fa cup clash at the hawthorns, including brown ideye's second goal (below)

the world's first printable gun has been deemed a serious safety and security concern after a gun printed by the bureau of alcohol, tobacco and firearms exploded before it was even fired this danger is matched by the problem with fully functioning 3 d printed guns they work all too well the blueprint for the 3 d gun known as the liberator was made available online six months ago by the group defense distributed with the aim of enabling anyone to print a gun with a 3 d printer six months ago scroll down for video no toy: the first gun printed on a 3 d printer, the liberator, has been tested by the atf new technology: an ultimaker 3 d printer the state department demanded the design be taken offline but not before it was downloaded more than 100,000 times the atf used the blueprints to print the plastic gun on a 3 d printer the bureau released the results of its tests on the liberator on wednesday, posting a series of videos on the tests to youtube the weapon was found to have the power to penetrate several inches of flesh as well as a human skull 'the bottom line is, the penetration results demonstrated that the liberator is a lethal weapon,' earl griffith, chief of atf's firearms technology branch told the huffington post 'the 380 bullets fired from the liberator penetrate sufficiently to reach vital organs and perforate the skull' the atf printed several versions of the gun using different materials the gun printed in a plastic material called visijet exploded during the test explosive: the liberator made from visijet exploded during testing a gun rendered in a stronger plastic known as abs shot eight rounds without any problems '[the testers] quit after eight rounds, but there was no issue with the firearm at that point,' atf spokesperson tim graden told forbes authorities say the guns are a particular concern because they're made of plastic which is undetectable, meaning they could be brought into areas where weapons would normally be banned such as airports, schools and courts depending on the metal detector, a bullet might not be enough to set it off, and the only way the gun itself could be detected would be with an x ray machine, which aren't used in many facilities undetectable: authorities are concerned that plastic 3 d guns could be brought into places such as schools or government buildings where metal detectors wouldn't find them new threat: a liberator pistol next to the 3d printer on which its components were made the single shot handgun is the first firearm that can be made entirely with plastic components forged with a 3d printer the gun manages to bypass the undetectable firearms act by including a metal block in its make up however, the metal part of the gun doesn't play any part in its function and could be removed the undetectable firearms act of 1988 expires early next month, and there is a push to have the law updated to account for printed plastic guns new york congressman steve israel told the washington post that he's making a 'last ditch effort' to renew and update the law 'it would be unfathomable to me if we are not able to renew thiws law right now,' he said atf spokesperson tim graden outlined the bureau's concerns to forbes: 'one, they do work two, they’re not reliable, and three, they’re undetectable,' says graden 'and that’s a safety and security issue because they can make their way into secure facilities'
first the bureau of alcohol, tobacco and firearms visijet
the liberator is the first 3 d printed gun the bureau of alcohol, tobacco and firearms tested several versions of the gun in different plastics one made of visijet exploded before it was fired; another of more durable plastic fired eight shots easily authorities say the gun is a safety and security concern because it's not detected by metal detectors
a giant panda at zoo atlanta gave birth to the first twins born to the species in an american zoo since 1987 the 15 year old lun lun went into labor monday afternoon and gave birth to the first cub at 6:21 and the second two minutes later zookeepers who had been anticipating only one cub based on a recent ultrasound were surprised by the first ever twin panda births at zoo atlanta ‘we have twins!’ zoo atlanta announced on its website scroll down for video surprise! 15 year old lun lun was to be a mom for the fourth time, but ended up birthing a set of twins monday to the surprise and joy of zoo atlanta staff an ultrasound on june 30 determined that lun lun was pregnant with her fourth cub zoo spokesperson keisha hines says zookeepers weren't expecting the tiny duo, however the twin cubs are the first giant pandas to be born in the united states in 2013, hines addedzoo officials are working with animal care workers from the chengdu research base of giant panda breeding, where lun lun and her 15 year old partner, yang yang, were born there was no immediate report on the size or weight of the cubs at birth, nor the condition of the offspring and mother but zoo officials were in a celebratory mood ‘this is a success we share with all of our fellow zoological organizations working to understand and protect this iconic species, and we share our joy with our local community and with our colleagues in china,’ said raymond b king, zoo atlanta's president and ceo ‘twins are an entirely new scenario for lun lun, zoo atlanta and our animal care teams, who will no doubt be extremely busy over the next few months,’ his statement added lun lun had been artificially inseminated in march and has been under 24 hour observation by a camera providing a live video feed from her den officials said the newborns' father is 15 year old yang yang zookeepers weren't immediately sure of the genders of the cubs in the pink: the twins when they were just days old zookeepers said lun lun is caring for one of the cubs while animal management and veterinary teams from the arthur m blank family foundation giant panda center care for the other in a nursery center officials said they will likely rotate the cubs between the nursery and lun lun's care to ensure they each get enough maternal nurturing without overexerting the 15 year old giant panda giant pandas typically only care for one cub when twins are born in the wild which usually leads to only one of the twins surviving, hines noted giant panda twins have survived in zoos by officials rotating the cubs with the mother during their first few months of life hines said giant pandas have a high mortality rate in the first few months after birth, and the risk is greater when twins are born visitors to zoo atlanta will likely be able to visit the cubs later this year, hines said she added that yang yang and the cubs' older brothers xi lan, 4, and po, 2 remain on exhibit and will not be housed with lun lun or the cubs the separation is normal and occurs naturally in the wild, hines said less than 1,600 giant pandas are believed to be living in the wild, hines said zoo atlanta was awarded the international conservation award from the association of zoos and aquariums in 2012 for its work to preserve the species

tamara ecclestone and her husband jay rutland are rumored to be 'having marital issues' over the fact that the 30 year old formula 1 heiress brings their ten month old daughter sophia into their bedroom to sleep with them every night according to a source close to the couple, who have just returned from a sun filled getaway in dubai with their beloved daughter, jay is threatening to move into the spare room of the couple's luxurious home in kensington, west london because he is so fed up with the situation 'tamara is a bit too protective when it comes to their baby and jay has insisted that she needs to get an expert to help sleep train sophia,' the source revealed to mailonline scroll down for video happy families: tamara ecclestone and her husband jay rutland, pictured here with baby sophia on holiday in dubai, are said to be arguing over whether their daughter should share their bed sweet dreams: tamara believes that ten month old sophia is happiest when she can sleep with her parents proud parents: both tamara and jay are devoted to their daughter and are said to be determined to come up with a solution to their co sleeping issue that will benefit the whole family 'tamara insists that sophia will cry all night unless she's sleeping with her, but jay has had enough 'it is causing a fair amount of friction' a second source added: 'tamara is incredibly protective of the baby and loves having her sleeping in her bed jay is slightly less tolerant of the situation' a spokesperson for tamara confirmed that she and jay are still working out what is best for their baby, but added that both parents are determined to find the perfect situation that works for all of them particularly their daughter 'like all new parents, tamara and jay are learning about the best ways to raise their baby,' the spokesperson told mailonline 'however they are committed to creating a happy, healthy future for their daughter' but while the issue of co sleeping has divided the otherwise loved up couple, tamara, who has own luxury hair care range, show beauty, is not alone when it comes to her opinions on where her daughter should sleep a host of other celebrity mothers, from angelina jolie and gwen stefani to heidi klum and kourtney kardashian, have all spoken out in favour of co sleeping with their children in 2011, no doubt frontwoman gwen told stylist that she regularly slept with her son zuma, adding that she loved the extra hours it meant she got to spend with him loving father: jay is an incredibly affectionate dad and loves spending time with his daughter, however he feels that sophia should be sleeping in her own room room for one more? tamara often posts pictures of her daughter sleeping or playing in her parents' bed to her instagram account 'i don’t want to look back and say, 'oh my god, i didn’t sleep with zuma that time because i was too tired,' so i’ll just snuggle up with him tonight,' she said 'it’s probably why i work as hard as i do i don’t want to look back and see the things i didn’t do' according to parenting expert jo tantum, many mothers find it hard to leave their babies in a separate room at night, particularly when the baby is having trouble sleeping, and tends to wake crying at regular intervals however, jo warned that tamara and jay need to try and tackle the issue as soon as possible or risk sophia developing into an overly dependent toddler 'it's really tough when you have a baby that doesn't sleep well,' she told mailonline 'and as the baby is ten months old then they really need to change things, otherwise they are going to have a dependent toddler, as they have set themselves up for being in demand 24/7' jo suggested that the devoted parents start to implement a few smaller changes in their day to day routine, before trying to sleep separately from sophia, in order to make their daughter feel as happy and comfortable as possible 'they need to get the baby into a flexible, natural routine,' she added 'at ten months a baby would naturally need a nap every two and a half hours, and they would be having between two and three milk feeds and three meals a day time to make a change: sleep expert jo tantum suggested that tamara and jay, pictured in new york with daughter sophia, start trying to put their daughter down for naps in her own room stuart weitzman lowland boots get them in black at farfetch visit site she’s a doting mom and needs to hit her style high spot without sacrificing on comfort so she can run around after her babe all day we were not surprised in the least to see tamara ecclestone don one of this seasons hottest footwear trends: the over the knee boot working an off duty look in ripped jeans and a crisp white coat, tamara rounded off the wintry ensemble with the hottest pair of over the knee boots around right now and since we’re drooling over her stuart weitzman style here at fashion finder hq, we thought you may like to buy them too, or at least add them to your wish list until you can afford them click (right) now to find them in black at farfetch if you’re keen on having a splurge, then take a gander at the robert clergerie boots below if not, we've included some diverse, more affordable options from madewell, aldo and forever 21 still drooling robert clergerie cali stretch suede over the knee boots from net a porter visit site aldo cylia tall boots visit site madewell the conor boots from shopbop visit site forever 21 faux suede over the knee boots visit site 'at ten months they wouldn't need a feed in the night '[tamara] still needs to nurture her baby, [give her] cuddles and meet her baby's needsthe issue is that if she is still having their baby in the bed, this can really take its toll on relationships, and dad gets relegated to the spare room '[that] should send warning bells that maybe things should change and she can still nature her baby [without needing to sleep with her]' and while some might accuse jay of being insensitive to the needs of his wife and daughter, jo insists that issues like this can be especially hard on the fathers 'i think it's really tough for dads, especially if it's been ten months of sharing their bed,' she said 'he still needs to feel part of a family rather than it being mummy and baby and then him 'he would need to support her to make the changes she still needs help to feed the baby and help to get the baby to sleep but in in separate space'

since 1990, scientists have used complex models to predict how climate change and manmade greenhouse emissions will affect the world but a team of experts including an astrophysicist, statistician, and geography professor – has claimed these models ‘very greatly exaggerate’ the effects of global warming using a simpler, solar based model, the researchers arrived at figures that are more than half those previously predicted the researchers tested their ‘simple’ mathematical model against complex models used by climate scientists, such as those involved in the intergovernmental panel on climate change (ipcc) report they also compared predictions against real world temperature changes this chart shows how the two observations compared the paper, ‘why models run hot: results from an irreducibly simple climate model’, was written by lord christopher monckton of brenchley, astrophysicist and geoscientist willie soon, professor of geography at the university of delaware david legates, and statistician dr matt briggs it has been peer reviewed and is published in the journal science bulletin mathematical equations used for large climate model typically require supercomputers that perform calculations quickly some make more than 80 million calculations an hour sophisticated climate models take into account the amounts of animals and plants, or biosphere, the hydrosphere’s oceans and other bodies of water, sea ice and ice sheets in the cryosphere, and the geosphere, that measures tectonic variations such as volcanic eruptions and moving continents by comparison, the

anthropogenic radiative forcings, put simply, are measured by the difference between the amount of sunlight absorbed by earth, and the energy that is radiated back to space a temperature feedback is created by albedo the amount of shortwave radiation from solar energy reflected by earth ice and snow is highly reflective, so has a high albedo, for example this means the majority of sunlight that hits snow is sent back towards space when ice and snow melts, as temperatures rise, the darker soil or grass lowers the albedo this increases the ground’s temperature, causing more snow to melt, leading to a further rise in temperature both of these measurements can be used to suggest global temperatures, radiation and energy levels in the atmosphere and the earth anthropogenic radiative

temperature temperature feedbacks can also be affected by water vapour and cloud cover both of these measurements can be used to suggest global temperatures, radiation and energy levels in the atmosphere and the earth the researchers tested their so called ‘simple’ model and its global warming predictions against the complex models used by climate scientists in particular, those complex models involved in the un and world meteorological organisation’s (wmo) intergovernmental panel on climate change (ipcc) report they also compared their predictions against real world temperature changes the paper claims that the measured, real world rate of global warming over the past 25 years, equivalent to less than 14° c per century, is ‘half the ipcc's central prediction in 1990’ in 1990, the un's climate panel predicted with ‘substantial confidence’ that the world would warm at twice the rate that has been observed since according to the study, another error made by the complex climate models, include the assumption that ‘temperature feedbacks’ would double or triple direct manmade greenhouse warming the simple model instead found that feedbacks could reduce warming also, modellers are said to have failed to cut their estimate of global warming in line with a new, lower feedback estimate from the ipcc predictions of global temperature were extrapolated from january 1990 to october 2014 (shaded region) this was compared with observed anomalies (dark blue) and temperature trends (bright blue) ‘[climate scientists] still predict 33°c of warming per co2 doubling they should only be predicting 22°c,' said the researchers in 1990, the un's climate panel predicted with ‘substantial confidence’ that the world would warm at twice the rate that has been observed since last year's report found that, by the end of the century, the emission of greenhouse gases will bring temperatures that are about 37°c (67°f) warmer ‘they still predict 33°c of warming per co2 doubling, when on this ground alone they should only be predicting 22°c about half from direct warming and half from feedbacks,’ said the researchers the latest intergovernmental panel on climate change (ipcc) report was published in november it said continued emission of greenhouse gases will cause further warming and long lasting changes this will increase the likelihood of 'severe, pervasive and irreversible impacts for people and ecosystems' such impacts include extreme weather and rising sea levels, heat waves, flooding and droughts ocean acidification, which comes from the added carbon absorbed by oceans, will harm marine life without changes in emissions, 'climate change risks are likely to be high or very high by the end of the 21st century' at the current rate, by mid century temperatures will increase by about another 2°c (36°f) compared to temperatures from 1986 to 2005 by the end of the century, that scenario will bring temperatures that are about 37°c (67°f) warmer the impact on the earth could already be considered dangerous, the report claimed ‘though the complex models say there is 06°c manmade warming 'in the pipeline' even if we stop emitting greenhouse gases, the simple model confirmed by almost two decades without any significant global warming shows there is no committed but unrealised manmade warming still to come’ once these errors are corrected, the researchers predict that the most likely global warming in response to a doubling of co2 is not 33°c, but 1°c or less and, even if all available fossil fuels were burned, less than 22°c warming would result, they claim author dr willie soon, an solar physicist at the harvard smithsonian centre for astrophysics, said: ‘our work suggests that man's influence on climate may have been much overstated ‘the role of the sun has been undervalued our model helps to present a more balanced view’ ‘a high school student with a pocket scientific calculator can now use this model and obtain credible estimates of global warming simply and quickly, as well as acquiring a better understanding of how climate sensitivity is determined,’ added statistician and co author dr matt briggs ‘as a statistician, i know the value of keeping things simple and the dangers in thinking that more complex models are necessarily better ‘once people can understand how climate sensitivity is determined, they will realise how little evidence for alarm there is’ while lord monckton said: 'our irreducibly simple climate model does not replace more complex models, but it does expose major errors and exaggerations in those models ‘for instance, take away the erroneous assumption that strongly net positive feedback triples the rate of manmade global warming and the imagined climate crisis vanishes’ mailonline has contacted the ipcc for comment

researchers claim global warming predictions are 'greatly exaggerated' large climate models typically require computers to perform calculations they consider factors such as animal numbers and tectonic variations by comparison, a team of researchers has created a ‘simple’ model it looks at levels of solar energy absorbed and reflected by earth using this simple model, they claim current predictions are wrong once errors are corrected, global warming in response to a doubling of co2 is around 1°c or less a third of the predicted 33°c

by sally jones for the daily mail the call came while i was sitting in my daughter’s oxford study ‘congratulations i’m delighted to tell you that you’ve been selected to appear on mastermind,’ said the producer ‘we’ll be in touch soon to finalise dates and your specialist subjects’ my stomach turned over with a familiar pang — half excitement, half terror at the thought of my fourth appearance on the cult show why do i keep putting myself through this? it must be the dangerous thrill of that approaching menace theme tune, the black leather chair, the blinding spotlights that induce brain‑numbing panic and john humphrys, trying unsuccessfully to sound avuncular ‘and is your daughter, madeline, there?’ asked the voice ‘i need to speak to her, too’ madeline, 21, listened intently for a second and then squealed in delight and hugged me mastermind had always been a cult show in our house and now she had got the call, too — one of the youngest ever contestants, one of just a handful of female quizzers and part of the first ever ‘family double’ of mother and daughter competing in the same season days earlier she had been gutted to miss out on university challenge she and her brother, roly, were each picked for their college teams, madeline captaining st hilda’s, oxford, and roly, 22, reserve for caius, cambridge but neither appeared in the televised version as the colleges were whittled down to just a handful of uber geeks as a bbc breakfast sports presenter, i had worked alongside jeremy paxman in the eighties during the university challenge qualifier, he joked with my children that he chiefly remembered me for mangling the word ‘dioceses’ i resisted the temptation to tell them what i chiefly remembered him for! both had always loved quizzes and, aged ten, roly even reached the final of britain’s brainiest kid, presented by a young tess daly ‘she’s very pretty’ he confided afterwards, ‘but she couldn’t even pronounce jerusalem!’ madeline’s alma mater, king edward vi high school for girls in birmingham, has a strong quiz tradition aged 13, she was in the schools challenge side that reached the national finals maybe it’s in the genes during childbirth, i deadened the pain of contractions with an epidural and played trivial pursuit with my husband, john, for hours he now claims he let me win as if! over the years i’ve appeared on krypton factor, crosswits, fifteen to one and a host of pub quizzes and charity events during a lucrative outing, aged 18, on sale of the century, which paid for several weeks of tennis tournaments, i became flustered when asked to spell ‘pseudonym’ and blurted out: ‘p s u e d no, that’s not it p s u e d oh, bugger it!’ nicholas parsons, with ineffable condescension (and the answer on a card in front of him) intoned: ‘sally, when you get to oxford, take a dictionary and you will see that it’s spelt p s e u d o n y m’ mastermind, however, remains the single most nerve wracking experience of my life quizzing is fractionally more male dominated and gladiatorial than professional rugby league and populated by anoraks with halitosis and low level jobs, maybe because they spend every spare minute hoovering up obscure facts in order to clean up at pub quizzes any woman who admits to the same perverse taste for memorising trivia, from us state capitals to monopoly board squares, in order, is treated with pitying contempt — or, if she wins, outright aggression drawn by a curious masochism, i first entered mastermind in 2009 and squeaked through the first round — specialist subject: saki’s short stories — narrowly beating three (delightful and supportive) blokes with immaculate personal hygiene, only to find a hostile taunt on my wikipedia entry ‘despite being “a so called sports journalist”, she failed to recall that phil vickery captained england in the 2007 world cup pathetic!’ i bowed out in the semi‑final to the eventual (female) winner never imagining i would get through the first round, i had thoughtlessly picked tennis star and feminist campaigner billie jean king as my specialist subject, a horribly broad topic as her career lasted several decades why hadn’t i chosen maureen ‘little mo’ connolly who won her first three wimbledons in the fifties then retired, aged 18, after smashing her leg in a riding accident? this time — for an episode to be aired tomorrow — i chose john betjeman’s poetry (it’s entertaining and easily memorable), and selected a sparkly frock but manageable heels: the polished mastermind walkway is narrow and slippery madeline and i tested each other to distraction, memorising lists of british prime ministers, flags of the world, booker prize winners and african capitals we arrived at the manchester studios — she excited, me numb with terror of course, nothing we’d memorised cropped up in the all important general knowledge questions — though betjeman’s ‘usual suspects’ miss joan hunter dunn and pam the ‘great big mountainous sports girl’ were there and how did we do? you'll just have to tune in to find out sally’s daughter madeline says: i’ve wanted to go on university challenge for as long as i can remember so when my college team failed to make it past the heats, i was naturally disappointed sensing mediocrity, my ever pushy mother nagged until i agreed to fill out an application to go on mastermind — the robin to university challenge’s batman some parents seem determined their children will go to a particular school or become a rocket scientist, but in our family it’s all about quizzes she even entered herself, presumably for moral support sally and madeline will both be seen on our tv screens soon in the infamous mastermind chair i was invited to london for an interview and to answer a few general knowledge questions i assumed it was a lost cause, thanks to the football question i’d undoubtedly got wrong (pretty sure arsenal don’t play at stamford bridge), and i kicked myself for forgetting the word ‘quango’ under pressure still, no doubt the bbc had gender diversity quotas to fill — i got on to the show sadly, the top two possible specialist topics i’d hoped to do, harry potter and jane austen, had been chosen in recent years, which was a huge disappointment as a child, i read and re read the harry potter books while the other children went to birthday parties as for jane austen, i just wanted an excuse to revisit colin firth in a wet t shirt in the end, i opted for the novels of e m forster and spent weeks mugging up, though i kept avoiding his longest, most complicated work, a passage to india i then had to read and learn the entire book the day before filming on the day itself, i opted for a loose, white polka dot shirt and jeans mum nagged me to wear something smarter, but i was dressing for comfort my grandma and best friend, eliza, came along for support and tested us both as we drove to the bbc studios in salford we were fitted with microphones and herded into the main studio, which was awash with cameramen, lighting technicians and spectators when john humphrys appeared, the lights dimmed and the quizzing began watching other contestants before me was the worst bit i was so nervous when the guy in front of me finished that i started walking to the chair before my name was called cue laughter from john humphrys and the audience, and an embarrassing re take on my way back, the mic fell out of my jeans, and had to be refitted in front of everyone but when i got in the chair, something marvellous happened i found that the mic incident, while mortifying, had released a lot of tension, and i felt almost relaxed both sets of questions went surprisingly well the other contestants answered on the battle of the somme, the band joy division and the big bang theory (the tv show, not the beginning of the universe) i got lucky with what felt like the easiest general knowledge questions, but still managed to give an unbelievably thick answer to a question about jewellery when we finished, john humphrys strode off before i got a chance to speak to (ie take a selfie with) him will i get another opportunity? that’s one question i can’t answer just yet sally jones will appear on mastermind on bbc2 tomorrow at 8pm; madeline’s appearance is on friday, february 6, at 8pm

follow his mistakes the six page letter was written by chan, who is scheduled to be executed by firing squad this year, was penned from inside his bali cell in kerobokan prison, where he has spent almost a decade dwelling on the actions that brought him there in the letter, which features in the new documentary 'dear me: the dangers of drugs', chan asks young australians to question themselves before they make any potential life altering decisions scroll down for video bali nine ringleader has penned a letter to his 15 year old self to warn young australians off drugs 'i don’t know what choices you guys are making, however, if anything, i would want you guys to remember is, ‘is it worth it?’,' chan says in the film 'you are still young and you have some serious decisions to make in your life what you choose today will make what you become tomorrow if you want to be a thug and a big bad wolf, i’ll see you soon inside,' reported the herald sun arrested at 21 for his role in the bali nine drug smuggling ring, chan has had many years 'to look at himself and he is reformed,' said the documentary's maker, malinda rutter chan has reportedly turned his life around, becoming a leader at the prison and running bible studies and mentoring other prisoners 'for those that want to do something in life, i’d like you guys to see how important it is to put your head down and study hard' in the documentary, chan addresses his 15 year old self in the hope that the young australians the film is aimed at will see how stark his future may be 'dear me, when you are older you will be in a bali prison and you will be executed,' chan says 'this happened to you because you thought taking drugs was cool' chan was arrested at the age of 21 for his role in the bali nine drug smuggling ring chan and fellow inmate myuran sukumaran have been on death row since 2006 in the film, chan explains that he became involved with drugs at an early age, and by the time he was 15, was heavily using the substances that would eventually lead him to jail 'your drug taking made you think it was ok to import drugs and make money from this your family and friends are heartbroken and your life will be ended by firing squad' 'really, underneath you are not a bad person, and drugs made you different,' chan ends he says in the film that he has made some bad decisions, and is not proud for many of his actions chan and fellow inmate myuran sukumaran have been on death row since 2006, and could face death as early as next sunday under a crackdown by the indonesia government on drug cases the australians may only be given several days notice if scheduled for execution, facing the imminent possibility of their death following the recent increase in criminal executions after a five year respite despite indonesian president joko widodo vowing not to grant pardons for drug smugglers, the attorney general's spokesman, tony spontana, said that there was a chance for the executions to be delayed 'but with regards to death penalty, we have the mechanism to review the decision,' mr spontana said 'starting from the decision made by the district court all the way to decision in judicial review, including the clemency decision,' reported the abc sukamaran has been in the same bali jail as chan for nearly a decade mr mcmahon, their australian lawyer, said that the pair had made significant efforts to improve their lives and the lives of others in the indonesian prison system mr abbott (with indonesian president joko widodo, left) said earlier this month that his government would make 'the strongest possible representations' to indonesia to seek a stay of execution if chan and sukumaran are executed under the same conditions that previous inmates have faced, they will be taken from their cells at midnight to face their death with their hands and feet shackled the pair will be offered blindfolds to wear, and will have white aprons around their neck and a red target on their chest sukamaran's mercy plea was rejected by the indonesian government on december 30th, while chan's plea is yet to be finalised their fate rests heavily on chan's clemency bid, as the pair have been informed that they will face execution together for their plot to smuggle over 8 kilograms of heroin into australia julian mcmahon, the pair's australian lawyer, said that executions were 'not clean killings', and that prisoners may be tied to a plank before being shot 'if the prisoner isn’t dead straight away, the commanding officer is meant to walk up and then put a bullet in the head,' mr mcmahon said mr mcmahon said that sukamaran and chan were traumatised by their impending execution, and often dreamed of being shot in the heart by the prison's firing squad sukamaran's mercy plea was rejected by the indonesian government on december 30th, while chan's plea is yet to be finalised chan could face death as early as next sunday under a crackdown by the government on drug cases sukamaran and chan attended school together at homebush boys high school in sydney's west, and chan said the pair had been relying on each other in an attempt to 'trying to stay strong for our family and friends at this difficult time' 'it is hard to think that our lives are in the hands of two men tony abbott and joko widodo who have the power to grant life and death please pray for a change of heart for these men and for our families,' he wrote in comments passed onto the facebook page friends of andrew chan mr mcmahon labelled the potential executions 'chilling', and said that he could not fathom simply taking prisoners outside and shooting them 'it seemed impossible to be true that they would take out these people on the weekend and just shoot them that was my first reaction,' mr mcmahon said news of the looming executions has galvanised australians seeking clemency for chan and sukumaran, with 2,500 signatures on a petition begging indonesian president joko widodo for mercy on their behalf mr abbott said earlier this month that his government would make 'the strongest possible representations' to indonesia to seek a stay of execution, but admitted he would not risk jeopardising diplomatic relations

against four dutch nationals charged with conspiring to import 238lb of the class a drug into the uk through hunterston, south of largs mr mitchell told the jury that henri van doesburg, 68, his son roderick, 23, grandson darryl jay, 22, and arnold van milt, 49, were all involved in the alleged conspiracy mr mitchell said the three younger men obtained sophisticated underwater equipment with the intention of removing the drugs stashed in the rudder housing of the motor vessel cape maria, moored in the clyde, and bringing it ashore but the cocaine haul was discovered by investigators before the men could get their hands on it, the prosecutor said a police search of a car and an inflatable boat uncovered specialised dry diving suits and ‘equipment you might have seen used by james bond and his adversaries that you would use if you wanted to travel underwater at high speed,’ mr mitchell told the jury it is understood the men had a seabob submersible, a motorised vehicle designed to allow a diver to travel considerable distances a police search of a car and an inflatable boat uncovered specialised dry diving suits and ‘equipment you might have seen used by james bond' the trio

mitchell said the jury heard henri van doesburg then flew back to holland where he was later arrested after searches on a computer at his address found ‘significant’ links between the four and the vessel importing the drugs the plot involved moving the drugs through a hole in the boat (pictured) before taking them ashore specialist diving gear and drugs recovered from the cape maria prosecutors say dutch smugglers planned to use diving gear and a high speed submarine vehicle to sneak in the massive haul of cocaine to scotland mr mitchell said: ‘at 9pm that evening, the three defendants checked into brisbane house hotel in largs, close to the mooring place of the cape maria they enquired about hiring diving equipment for three men ‘the cape maria, having travelled from colombia, was at hunterston with the drugs stored in the back ‘officers searched the rudder trunk space, also accessible from the outside, where they found five large black packages containing 55 smaller packages

brutal forest fire some footage, including that which showed the bodies of the granite mountain crew, was redacted by the forest service winds from a thunderstorm fanned flames towards the crew and made communicating difficult and patchy at one point, another firefighter is heard asking for the cell phone number of a hotshot because he is having trouble reaching him via radio, cbs reported the clips range from 30 seconds to more than seven minutes they include one previously released clip that showed firefighters listening to radio traffic between the granite mountain crew and command staff the crew seemed puzzled about what was going on one said he thought the crew was in a safety zone on one of the last transmissions from the hotshots came from eric marsh, the superintendent of the granite mountain crew, who is heard saying: 'our escape route has been cut off we are preparing a deployment site and we are burning out around ourselves in the brush and i'll give you a call when we are under the shelters' the clip ended with command staffers trying repeatedly to reach the crew by radio the calls go unanswered other videos showed firefighters planning their attempt to rescue the granite mountain crew and making their way to the area once the bodies were found, the emotion in the clips is apparent at one point, a voice utters a profanity and confirms that the bodies of the crew have been found another voice is heard over the radio, reporting solemnly that there were no survivors a rescuer said: 'yeah todd, on scene 18 confirmed' a total of 19 firefighters died, making

anybody else that i feel comfortable sending that way' mrs warneke said that sounds as if someone had specifically sent the granite mountain crew into the area where they were trapped and killed 'we'll never understand we will always ask why,' said tammy misner of santa ynez, california, whose son, sean misner, was a granite mountain hotshot mrs misner heard the bewilderment, the fear and then sadness in the men's voices as she watched the videos, which include images recorded before the hotshots were overcome and after their bodies were found winds from a thunderstorm fanned the flames toward the tragic 19 hotshots, but fire chiefs did not pull out their men in time she said: 'it was just disturbing to look at and watch, but at the same time i don't think i heard anything that would make any changes to what we already feel we know happened 'you're watching this, and you know what's going on our guys are gone' attorney patrick mcgroder, who represents families of the fallen hotshots in wrongful death and benefit legal cases, had not seen the footage he criticized the forestry division's handling of the release, saying officials were insensitive and lacked decency

those children born to teenage mothers tend not to perform as well academically as the children of older mothers, a new study has found a team of scientists at the university of michigan found the level of education a mother attains can predict her children's success in reading and maths their findings showed that success is greater if a mother had her child later in life sandra tang, the study's lead author, said children born to mothers aged 19 or older usually enter kindergarten with higher levels of achievement she said the researchers found these children continued to excel in maths and reading at higher levels by the time they reach 13 to 14, when compared to those children of mothers 18 and younger scientists at the university of michigan found children to mothers aged 19 or older usually enter kindergarten with higher levels of achievement file picture 'these results provide compelling evidence that having a child during adolescence has enduring negative consequences for the achievement of the next generation,' dr tang said the negative consequences of teen mothers were found not only to affect the child born when the mother was an adolescent, but also any subsequent children professor pamela davis kean, of the institute for social research and center for human growth and development, said the findings present good news and bad news 'the good news is that the children of teen mothers who continue their education after having children do better academically than children of teen moms who did not continue,' she said 'however, these children and other children born to the mother when she wasn't an adolescent never catch up in achievement across time to children whose mothers had them after completing their education 'this group continues to carry a risk for lower achievement' the study's data was taken from the early childhood longitudinal study kindergarten cohort, a nationally representative sample of children who were first assessed upon entering kindergarten in 1998 and were interviewed through spring 2007 in 14,279 cases, the children's maths and reading scores were collected in third, fifth and eighth grades lead author sandra tang said the researchers found these children continued to excel in maths and reading at higher levels by 14, when compared to those children of mothers 18 and younger file picture researchers used this data to compare achievement trajectories of children born either to teen mothers aged 18 or younger to adult mothers, aged 19 and older the analyses took into account mothers' educational expectations for their children, the home environment and other characteristics, such as household income, that may influence children's achievement trends indicate that mothers who give birth during adolescence have much lower rates of high school completion and college enrollment in comparison to their counterparts who delay pregnancy dr tang said given that growth in achievement generally stays the same across time for math and reading for all children in the sample, these patterns highlight the importance of investing in early interventions that target adolescent mothers and provide them with the skills needed to promote their children's learning

pensions to be upgraded rather than public sector pensions downgraded' noel west, 58, from brighton, who came into terminal three from miami, said: 'it proves that we do not need half of these people if you can go through as quickly as i did when there is as strike on 'it was the fastest i have ever come through passport control they were really prepared and there were lines showing you where to go depending on what passport holder you are way before there usually is 'but they did look like they were preparing for long queues later in the day they had spare chairs, special invalid chairs, water and biscuits to eat' daily mail showbiz editor sara nathan added: 'heathrow is as dead as a zombie no queues at immigration at all but they've laid out water, apples and kit kats just in case'

put in place with the airlines and the ukba over recent days, immigration queues are currently at normal levels however, there still remains a possibility of delays for arriving passengers later in the day protesters gather with banners and placards in manchester this morning in opposition over the pension reforms 'as a result of the whole airport community working together over the past few days, we have more immigration officers on duty and fewer passengers arriving than would otherwise be the case that puts us in a better place to avoid the serious delays and widespread disruption at heathrow that were projected last week' a spokesman for gatwick said the airport was expecting delays today for incoming passengers through passport control, but no hold ups had occurred yet this morning the port of dover in kent said all services with p&o ferries to calais and dfds seaways sailings to dunkirk were 'running well and to time' this morning with space available there were no

shut about 13 per cent are open, the dfe said, while the rest are unknown unite members strike outside the liverpool entrance to the birkenhead tunnel which has been closed for the day schools in

atlanta police are being accused of embellishing the case against a father whose son died in a hot car last month after significant discrepancies allegedly emerged during a review of the evidence the atlanta journal constitution has carefully looked through some the evidence, including a surveillance video that captured justin ross harris outside the home depot where he worked, and the newspaper claims authorities overstated some of their case at a july 3 hearing according to the ajc, the tape contradicts some of the testimony given by cobb county detective phil stoddard also, in an exclusive interview, harris' brother told the paper that he and harris were planning a cruise together and that harris had specifically requested one with facilities for children scroll down for video family: the atlanta journal constitution claims there are discrepancies int he evidence in the case of justin ross harris, pictured right with his wife and late son cooper during the july 3 hearing, stoddard, prompted by prosecutor chuck boring, strongly insinuated that harris sat in his parked car outside of his work on the morning on june 18 for 30 seconds before getting out and walking inside boring reiterated this during closing arguments, saying 'that morning, he waits 30 seconds in that car 30 seconds with that child right beside him' however, the ajc claims the security video in fact shows harris remained in the hyundai for less that 15 seconds before exiting the car, during which time he put the car in park, turned off the engine and gathered his belongings harris returned to the suv at lunchtime to put a package of light bulbs inside and stoddard during the brief trip to the car, stoddard and boring said the father had a 'clear view' of the inside of the car however, after reviewing the video, the ajc claims only harris' arm and shoulder are seen reaching inside the vehicle, and that his eyes remain above the suv's roof at all times it also shows it took just three seconds for him to open the door, put the package inside and shut the door again according to the ajc, a surveillance video contradicts some of the testimony given by cobb county detective phil stoddard, pictured on july 3 mom: police have not named leanna harris as a suspect and she has not been charged with any crime the third piece of allegedly overstated evidence presented by authorities is the claim that harris paused during his walk back to the office, because he apparently was concerned a passerby would see his son inside the car while the tape does show harris pass a man in the parking lot, and pause briefly, his eyes are on his cell phone, which he is poking at with his free hand and he doesn't appear to notice the man at all the man in fact walks the length of harris' parked car and would have almost certainly seen the child if he'd turned his head, the ajc claims michael baygents, harris' half brother, told the newspaper that he and harris were excitedly planning to take their families on a cruise in october after harris suggested the two families vacation together he said they settled on carnival cruise lines because a carnival ship had water slides for children baygents said he was frustrated to see the way the police were portraying his brother's case 'i'm very angry with them i think they rushed to judgment i think stoddard rushed to judgment i think he made a terrible mistake,' he told the ajc the claims come after the lawyer for the harris' wife said she was devastated by the loss of little cooper peaceful: harris described cooper as peaceful with his eyes closed, when this wasn't the case, according to stoddard he allegedly also told his wife: 'i dreaded how he would look' criminal defense attorney lawrence zimmerman said leanna harris is 'living every parent's nightmare' after the death of her 22 month old son the woman's husband, justin ross harris, 33, was arrested on charges of murder and child cruelty after the boy's death june 18 the father told police he left his son in the backseat of his suv for about seven hours after forgetting to drop him off at day care and going to work, investigators in the atlanta suburb of cobb county have said leanna harris has not been charged in the case zimmerman criticized media coverage of her reaction to her son's death, saying speculation over a perceived lack of emotion in the case thus far is similar to what 1996 olympic bombing hero richard jewell faced after an attack that year on the summer games in atlanta jewell led people away from a suspicious backpack before a blast killed one and left more than 100 people injured he became the target of intense scrutiny after an unattributed news report said he was the focus of the investigation into the attack jewell's name was cleared in 2006 and he died the following year at age 44 investigation: cobb county police investigate the suv where toddler cooper harris died near marietta, ga, when his father ross forgot to drop his child off at day care and went to work 'newspapers, television and online media have fostered a poisonous atmosphere in which leanna's every word, action and emotion — or failure to cry in front of a crowd — is scrutinized for some supposed hidden meaning,' zimmerman said he added that the media has dug into his client's upbringing, marriage and sex life zimmerman also said leanna harris has been unable to return to work and she's asking to be allowed to mourn her son out of the public eye 'she will never be able to tuck him into bed at night and return later to check on him 'she mourns cooper's death deeply, in her own private way,' the lawyer stated 'she takes comfort from a strong faith in god, but the loss is still overwhelming getting through each day seems almost impossible' during an hourslong probable cause hearing on july 3, prosecutors said evidence shows justin ross harris had been leading a double life and was sending nude photos with several women — including at least one teenager — even on the day his son died the couple had two life insurance policies for the toddler, one for $2,000 and one for $25,000 after his son's death, harris talked with relatives about what they needed to do to file claims, investigators have said harris' defense attorney maddox kilgore has argued that evidence in the case is insufficient and the boy's death was a tragic accident justin ross harris remains jailed without bond police recently said a toxicology tests on the body of 22 month old cooper had negative results, but they didn't say what substances they tested for no bond: justin ross harris, the georgia man charged with murder after his toddler son died inside of a hot suv, was refused bond on july 3 and will now remain in jail until he is tried toxicology tests typically are used to detect foreign substances such as drugs in a person's system a growing number of questions are being asked about leanna harris' unusual behavior in the wake of young cooper’s horrific death inside a sweltering suv last month harris, a 30 year old dietitian, expressed little emotion throughout her husband's preliminary hearing last week, despite a number of shocking allegations including that her husband had been sexting with six different women, some teenagers, on the day their young son had passed away as prosecutors said her husband was practically leading a double life and should not be granted bond, leanna harris chewed gum and stared blankly ahead during last thursday's proceedings, investigators described her own behavior on the day her son died as odd, if not suspicious when informed by workers at her son's day care facility that cooper had never been dropped off, she calmly responded, 'ross must have left him in the car there's no other explanation,' according to cobb county police detective phil stoddard's testimony then, when reunited with her husband at police headquarters after he had been charged with murder, leanna harris asked him, 'did you say too much?' according to stoddard when she called home june 18 with the grim news of cooper's death, her mother could be overheard on the phone saying: 'why aren't you crying? why aren't you reacting?' heartbreaking details: detective stoddard testified that there was scratch marks on cooper harris' face and abrasions on the back of the toddler's head justin ross harris is accused of leaving his 22 month old son cooper to die in a scorching hot suv on june 18 her response, according to stoddard: 'i must be in shock' police had previously disclosed that, like her husband, she had researched children dying in hot vehicles prior to her son cooper's death, telling officers it was her 'worst fear' at cooper's funeral and with her husband listening from jail on speaker phone she said she held no anger toward him 'ross is and was a wonderful father,' she told mourners, before telling her husband of seven years: 'i love you and i'm doing this for you' some of leanna harris' comments during her eulogy at cooper’s funeral have also raised suspicions 'some of you might wonder how i'm standing here today and i ask myself the same question,' the deeply religious mother said 'i should be crumpled into a pile of tears and snot on the ground (the lord) is standing behind me, holding me up' the 250 or so mourners who gathered at university church of christ gave her two rounds of applause as she said she wouldn’t bring her son back, even if she could 'he's in the most peaceful, wonderful place there is' justin ross harris was denied bond by a judge who called it a 'possible death penalty case' he remains in jail on murder and child cruelty charges and prosecutors may seek to use leanna harris as a witness in georgia, the spousal privilege shielding a wife from testifying against her husband, doesn't apply in cases of the death of a child

apple has been ordered to face a us federal lawsuit claiming it failed to tell consumers that its imessage would block them from receiving text messages if they switched to android based smartphones once imessage is enabled, apple routes messages from other iphones through it however, this can continue even when a number is switched to an android phone, without access to the service, meaning if anyone sends an imessage to that number it doesn't get converted to a text, and ultimately ends up lost in the ether when a person registers an iphone, their number is typically linked to imessage when they then swap to a new device, these messages are not always converted to text, and become lost the tool (pictured) lets previous iphone owners enter their phone number to deregister it from the service if you still have the iphone you were using before you switched, transfer your sim card temporarily back into the ios device make sure the phone is connected to a network click settings, messages and turn imessage off if you no longer have the iphone, open apple's new tool select the correct country from the drop down menu and type in the number click 'send code' enter the six digit code that is sent to that number into the box below, and select submit us district judge lucy koh in san jose, california said apple must face plaintiff adrienne moore's claim that the message blocking interfered with her contract with verizon wireless for wireless service, which she kept after switching in april to a samsung  galaxy s5 from an iphone 4 moore, who seeks class action status and unspecified damages, claimed that apple failed to disclose how its ios 5 software operating system would obstruct the delivery of 'countless' messages from other apple device users if iphone users switched to non apple devices in a monday night decision, koh said moore deserved a chance to show apple disrupted her wireless service contract and violated a california unfair competition law, by blocking messages meant for her 'plaintiff does not have to allege an absolute right to receive every text message in order to allege that apple's intentional acts have caused an actual breach or disruption of the contractual relationship,' koh wrote the judge also dismissed some claims tied to another california consumer protection law apple did not immediately respond on tuesday to requests for comment roy katriel, a lawyer for moore, did not immediately respond to similar requests in court papers, apple said it never claimed that its imessage service and messages application, which ran with ios 5, would recognize when iphone users switched to rival devices 'apple takes customer satisfaction extremely seriously, but the law does not provide a remedy when, as here, technology simply does not function as plaintiff subjectively believes it should,' the cupertino, california based company said earlier this week apple released a tool that will help people deregister their number from imessage, or disable the service, to stop this from happening the tool, first spotted by a reddit user, lets current or previous iphone owners enter their phone number to deregister it from imessage they are then sent a six digit code to confirm they want to remove it alternatively, people who still own an iphone and are selling it, or want to simply switch the service off, can click settings, messages and turn imessage off when purchasing an iphone, a number is typically linked to the firm's imessage service upon registration when a message is sent between enabled ios devices, apple sends it as an imessage rather than as a text imessages are sent using a web connection, rather than a network connection but, when a person switches their number to a new phone, such as an android, that particular number can remain linked to imessage when an ios user then sends that mobile number a message, apple can end up routing it through its web service but without access to imessages, the recipient doesn't receive it unless the sender resends it as a text previously, the only solution was to deregister the old device completely from their apple accounts the bug can also affect ipads that have a 3g connection and use a number in may, apple said it was addressing bugs within its imessaging system that caused text messages to become lost when the recipient switched to a non apple phone alternatively, people who still own an iphone and are selling it, or want to simply switch the service off, can click settings, messages and turn imessage off imessages are sent using a web connection, rather than a network connection but, when a person switches their number to a new phone that number can remain linked but one disgruntled customer was so annoyed about missing messages, she filed a lawsuit against the firm adrienne moore claimed the company failed to disclose its knowledge of the problem the issue does not appear to affect all previous iphone users, but apple issued a statement that it had 'fixed a server side imessage bug which was causing an issue for some users,' and was working on an additional fix for future software updates this latest tool offers such a fix
non apple apple
when a person registers an iphone, their number is linked to imessage this means that when someone messages from another iphone, they receive it as an imessage rather than a text if a person switches their number to a non apple phone, it can remain linked android phones are not the only phones affected any non apple device could be losing messages if a switch has been made from apple and if they no longer have access to imessage, they may not receive posts apple's tool helps people deregister their number from imessage it also shows existing iphone owners how to disable the service

prince andrew was under growing pressure last night to testify on oath about his contacts with alleged underage ‘sex slave’ virginia roberts she lodged fresh documents at a florida court saying her lawyers had served an extraordinary letter on the duke last week requesting he answer questions – but he ‘refused’ to accept it miss roberts also issued a stinging attack on ‘false and hurtful’ denials of her claims made by andrew in the tumultuous past three weeks she claimed his police bodyguards left her alone with him the first time he had sex with her and that she was involved in an orgy with the prince and eight other young girls scroll down for video prince andrew (pictured with virginia roberts in 2001) is under growing pressure to testify on oath about his contacts with alleged underage ‘sex slave’ virginia roberts miss roberts’ lawyers sent buckingham palace a letter (above) requesting his ‘voluntary cooperation in answering question about his sexual interactions’ with her buckingham palace has strenuously rejected claims the duke had any ‘sexual contact or relationship’ with miss roberts last week, miss roberts’ lawyers sent by fedex couriers an unprecedented letter addressed to ‘his royal highness the duke of york’ at buckingham palace requesting his ‘voluntary cooperation in answering question about his sexual interactions’ with her it is not known whether prince andrew is covered by legal immunity simply by being a royal because this has never been tested in international law however, the prince may be entitled to diplomatic immunity against questioning in any criminal inquiry because some of the allegations relate to when he was a whitehall sanctioned business envoy diplomatic immunity protects foreign diplomats from legal action in the country where they work extradition lawyer karen todner said the prince could be formally asked to give evidence ‘only in criminal proceedings’ if he refused to co operate, he could in theory be banned from entering america the letter offered to interview the prince under oath ‘at a time and place of your choosing’ but her lawyers stated: ‘federal express has informed us that the letter has been refused by the recipient’ the latest documents filed at palm beach court house in florida make plain miss roberts’s determination to pursue the prince – who she said ‘i just called “andy”’ she alleges she was a sex slave loaned out by paedophile billionaire jeffrey epstein to his friend andrew when she was aged 17 in 2001, claiming: ‘whatever prince andrew wanted, i was to make sure he got’ the latest bombshell came as a shock to buckingham palace officials last night as they arrived in switzerland with andrew to attend the world economic forum in davos the prince, who is today due to give a much anticipated speech to business leaders, was sitting down with his advisers when details of the papers began to drop last night in her latest court salvo, miss roberts states: ‘i have seen buckingham palace’s recent “emphatic” denial that prince andrew had sexual contact with me that denial is false and hurtful to me i did have sexual contact with him as i have described…under oath virginia roberts included this photo into today's court filing to show how young she was virginia roberts included four photos of herself in the new court filing to illustrate her connection to the places in new mexico mentioned in the court documents the letter offered to interview the prince under oath ‘at a time and place of your choosing’ but her lawyers said the letter had been 'refused by the recipient' in new documents, miss roberts (left) launched a stinging attack on the duke's (right) denials of her allegations she claims they had sex when she was 17 ‘given what he knows and has seen, i was hoping that he would simply voluntarily tell the truth about everything i hope my attorneys can interview prince andrew under oath about the contacts and that he will tell the truth’ she said she had directed her lawyers ‘to pursue all reasonable and legitimate means to bring criminal charges against these powerful people for the crimes they have committed against me and other girls’ she added: ‘if a judge wants me to present my information in more detail, including more specific descriptions of the sexual activities with the men epstein sent me to, i could do so’ she also denies having sex with former us president bill clinton the letter served on andrew was written by lawyer jack scarola, dated january 14, and included the now notorious photo of the prince posing next to miss roberts he told the prince: ‘this letter is a formal request…to interview you, under oath, regarding interactions that you had with jane doe no 3 [the name used by miss roberts in legal proceedings] beginning in approximately early 2001 jane doe no 3 was then 17 years old among other things, i would like to discuss events that occurred at the time that the photograph below was taken — and shortly thereafter ‘i would also like to discuss jane doe 3’s claims of your subsequent interactions with her in new york city, new york later that year ‘details of those claims have been widely reported in the british press (with varying degrees of accuracy) as have your denials of the claims , so i assume that it is unnecessary for me to be any more specific about the proposed areas of our inquiry ‘the interview could be conducted at a time and place of your choosing, and with your cooperation,’ the letter tops a damaging three weeks for andrew since he was sensationally accused in us court papers of abusing miss roberts when she 17 she alleged that under the orders of billionaire paedophile jeffrey epstein, she was ‘forced’ to have sex with him three times in 2001 in london, new york and on epstein’s caribbean island andrew, 54, fiercely denies ‘any form of sexual contact or relationship’ with miss roberts and has consulted top criminal qc william clegg prince andrew, left, has been dragged into the controversy surrounding convicted paedophile jeffrey epstein (right) the two are pictured together in central park, in new york last night miss roberts spelt out for the first time in court papers the detail of her allegations against the prince, epstein and their mutual friend ghislaine maxwell – daughter of crooked tycoon robert maxwell miss roberts stated: ‘epstein made me have sex with prince andrew several times i had sex with him three times, including one orgy i knew he was a member of the british royal family, but i just called him “andy”’ she said the first instance of sexual contact happened in london at miss maxwell’s townhouse ‘i got news from maxwell that i would be meeting a prince later that day, epstein told me i was meeting a “major prince” ‘epstein told me “to exceed” everything i had been taught he emphasised that whatever prince andrew wanted, i was to make sure he got’ ‘eventually prince andrew arrived, along with his security guards the guards then went out of the house and stayed out front in their car it was just epstein, maxwell, and me inside alone with andy i was introduced to the prince, and we kissed formally, cheek to cheek maxwell said “guess how old she is” prince andrew guessed 17’ smiling coyly for the camera in a simple white blouse, this is virginia roberts around the time she has accused prince andrew of having sex with her the photograph was taken by paedophile billionaire jeffrey epstein, the man she says turned her into a ‘sex slave’ and procured her for the queen’s son photos: virginia pictured aged 17 (left), in a picture taken by epstein, and aged 15 (right) these pictures are two of five photos included in miss roberts's new legal submission the snapshot is one of five photos included in miss roberts’s new legal submission to show how young she looked ‘i was approximately 17 at the time,’ she said she adds: ‘i visited and travelled with jeffrey epstein from 1999 through the summer of 2002 ‘i had sex with him often in these places and also with the various people he demanded that i have sex with’ she said she included the photos to ‘illustrate my connection to these places’ andrew took her to tramp club before they returned to the townhouse where she and the prince allegedly ‘went to the bathroom and bedroom…we engaged in sexual activities there afterwards, andy left quickly with his security’ the legal documents filed yesterday say that although buckingham palace has ‘recently denied that prince andrew had sexual contact’ with miss roberts, ‘it has not attempted to explain what led to the prince having his picture taken with his arm around a 17 year old american girl at night in london in an intimate setting in a private residence’ the duke of york who strongly denies the claims 0 has enlisted the help of qc william clegg (pictured), nicknamed the 'grandfather of the bar' ‘nor has the palace explained what ghislaine maxwell is doing there and who took that picture – while jane doe 3 (miss roberts) has provided a sworn affidavit that the photographer was prince andrew’s close friend (as well as sex trafficker and now registered sex offender) jeffrey epstein’ in her statement, miss roberts said that in 2011, while living in australia, she was interviewed by two fbi agents about her allegations last night a buckingham palace spokesman said: ‘we have nothing to say in addition to our earlier comments on the issue’ previously, the palace has said ‘any suggestion of impropriety with underage minors is categorically untrue’, adding: ‘the duke would never interfere in an active legal case and did not do so in this case’ epstein, 61, was sentenced to 18 months in jail for paedophile offences but he only served 13 months behind bars this was due to a controversial plea bargain agreement between his ‘army of legal superstars’ and the us government a spokesperson for miss maxwell, 53, daughter of disgraced tycoon robert maxwell, has strongly denied the allegations harvard law professor alan dershowitz who is also named in the court papers said the claims against him were part of a pattern of “made up stories” by miss roberts

four british languages are under threat of extinction, unless drastic measures are taken to preserve them a new map, showing europe's 'endangered list' of languages, has highlighted the minority tongues that are most likely to disappear in the uk jersey french, guernsey french, manx and cornish are all under threat, with numbers of people who speak them seriously dwindling cornwall, where cornish has been listed critically endangered with just 574 speakers the latter two's situation is most perilous, with both being listed as 'critically endangered,' while jersey french and guernsey french are considered 'severely endangered', according to a detailed study by dr christopher moseley at the ucl school of slavonic and east european studies one travel website has worked with dr moseley to create a map of europe showing where the most critically endangered languages are spoken in a bid to encourage visitors to go and explore the areas based on data from the unesco languages in danger project, launched in 1993, the study found 90 per cent of the 250 languages spoken in europe are endangered and that by the end of the century over half of the languages in the world will be extinct of the 24 critically and severely endangered languages on the european infographic, livonian in latvia, has no first language speakers left just 40 50 second language speakers livonian is spoken in a medieval town with a population of just 1,682, and the last first language speaker of the language, grizelda kristina died last year at the age of 103 ter sami is the most easterly of all the endangered sami dialects (spoken by the sami people, traditionally known in english as laplanders) and, the unusual language of gottscheerisch, a language which, despite its slovenian origins, is still spoken by a small community in queens, new york, also makes it onto the european list four uk languages have been placed on the 'endangered list', but could be revived with the help of tourism naren shaam, ceo of goeuro, said: 'ethical tourism has been practised for many years and is typically associated with travelling to far flung parts of the globe, but we are hoping that this linguistic interpretation of the idea – allowing people to choose to directly benefit regions in which centuries old languages are on the cusp of extinction – will allow tourists to have unique cultural experiences much closer to home 'we certainly hope the information that we are providing to users will encourage more tourism to these often under explored continental destinations, and contribute to the preservation of europe’s endangered languages' the company has posted a blog online to help travellers plan visits to some of the remote outposts where the endangered languages are spoken in a bid to encourage tourism to the areas there are believed to be 1,700 manx speakers left, and more worryingly only 574 cornish speakers guernsey french has 1,327 speakers, while jersey french has around 2,000 however, the outlook is most hopeful for cornish and manx, with an organised approach to teaching the two languages in schools to keep them alive 'it was an uphill battle because manx had reached the point where the last first language speaker died in 1974 since then they've been running classes and they have a school,' said dr moseley
