'For me, winning a cup or winning the league with another team is the same now as having the possibility to save Leicester in the Premier League.' Leicester, promoted last season, will have their work cut out to avoid an immediate return to the second tier. The Foxes are rock-bottom of the 20-team table, seven points adrift of 17th placed Sunderland and without a league win since January. 'I understood when I signed for Leicester it's not an easy job to stay in the Premier League,' he said. 'It's a difficult situation but I think we have our chances to win matches. There's a quarter of the Premier League left. 'I think some people think for Leicester all is finished. But I'm sure, because I watch my team mates every day, we can save Leicester and stay in the Premier League.' Nigel Pearson's side face West Ham United at home on Saturday.

After West Ham announced a vast reduction in season ticket prices earlier this week, manager Sam Allardyce has labelled the move the best business by any Premier League club in a long time. Ahead of their relocation to the Olympic Stadium in a year’s time, the Hammers became the first club to drop the price of their season tickets off the back of the Premier League’s record three-year, £5.13bn television deal, which comes into effect at the start of the 2016-17 season. West Ham’s cheapest adult season ticket for that campaign will cost £289 – a considerable saving on the £620 equivalent this season. And Allardyce feels this is a shrewd business decision by the club, as maintaining a capacity crowd at their new 54,000-seat Stratford home will be important for West Ham. Manager Sam Allardyce has said that filling the stadium is the most important thing for any football club . West Ham became the first Premier League club to reduce season ticket prices for fans . ‘What we’ve announced has to be the best piece of business, for me, seen in the Premier League for a long, long time,’ Allardyce said. ‘The most important thing at a football club is to fill the stadium. ‘Obviously it’s not from a revenue base like it used to be. The revenue base for a football club used to be the sustainability of the club in my years before the Premier League and before Sky made it a worldwide brand. West Ham's season tickets will cost as little as £289 when the club move to the Olympic Stadium next year . An artist's impression of what the Olympic Stadium will look like during a West Ham match . 'It’s about creating the atmosphere in a stadium that thrills not only the fans there, but the players who respond to that. ‘I think we keep demanding too much financially from the fan. And I think, when you look at where the country has come from since 2008, people are working harder and longer for less. ‘We have to take in mind where they are, and while our money has increased from a revenue point of view, it would be very light-heartening to see that benefit going back to the actual fans who come and watch.’

A bizarre performance from Stan Wawrinka saw Grigor Dimitrov breeze through 6-1, 6-2 to his first masters quarter-final of the season. Wawrinka is the defending champion in Monte Carlo and seldom has a title been relinquished so easily. The Swiss No 2 played like he was in a hurry - and not in a good way. Rushing between points, Wawrinka won the first of the match and then made four unforced errors in a row to surrender his serve. Grigor Dimitrov powers a forehand from the back court in his comfortable win over Stan Wawrinka . Wawrinka, the Monte Carlo Masters defending champion, appeared out of sorts in the 6-1 6-2 defeat . The world No 9 looked listless and disinterested, rolling in 95mph first serves and ballooning groundstrokes long. He did not appear to be injured but something was very clearly wrong; four winners and 41 unforced errors cannot be put down merely to a bad day at the office. Wawrinka's coach Magnus Norman is not in Monte Carlo this week and, watching at home, he may have been glad of the opportunity to turn off the television. Dimitrov moves through to the quarter-finals where the Bulgarian will meet Frenchman Gael Monfils . Wawrinka wasn't at his finest as he failed to get on the board in the match until the fifth game . In the second, Wawrinka played a little better - he could scarcely have played worse - but still gave Dimitrov a generous helping of mistakes. The world No 11 broke early and Wawrinka served to stay in the match at 5-2 down. Four tame unforced errors later and Dimitrov was through to the last eight. The crowd on court central would have expected a thrilling encounter between two of the most expressive players on tour. Instead, they were treated to an abject and mystifying performance from Wawrinka. The 30-year-old finally got on the board in the fifth game of the match, although this was down more to errors from Dimitrov - who wasn't even playing especially well himself - than any improvement from the Swiss. But the Bulgarian broke for a third time and closed out the first set 6-1. Dimitrov and a disappointed Wawrinka shake hands at the end of the quickfire encounter .

The country’s Supreme Court rejected his final legal appeal against the death sentence, which he received in May 2013. Members of Qamaruzzaman's family visited him yesterday afternoon for the last time, his lawyer Shishir Manir said. Shortly after TV footage showed an ambulance, thought to be carrying Qamaruzzman's body, leaving the jail under police escort. In a statement Jamaat-e-Islami, Bangladesh's largest Islamist political party, denounced the execution and called for a protest against the government's action. A Geneva-based UN High Commissioner for Human Rights urged officials not to carry out the execution, claiming that Qamaruzzman's trial did not meet ‘fair international’ standards.

Ed Miliband was last night accused of snubbing Britain’s army of self-employed workers – for refusing to send them a special Election message. The Labour leader prompted claims that he was worried about upsetting his party’s ‘union paymasters’. In a special Election edition, the magazine of the respected Association of Independent Professionals and the Self-Employed (IPSE) carries tributes from nearly every major party leader to people who work for themselves. Scroll down for video . No message: Ed Miliband was last night accused of snubbing Britain’s army of self-employed workers – for refusing to send them a special Election message in the IPSE magazine . But while David Cameron, Nick Clegg, Nigel Farage and Nicola Sturgeon all feature, there is no message from Mr Miliband. Instead, the magazine has pointedly published a blank page where his contribution would have been – with a sharp rebuke. It reads: ‘Despite repeated requests, Labour leader Ed Miliband decided not to take up IPSE’s offer to outline his views on the UK’s 4.5 million self-employed.’ Last night, IPSE chief executive Chris Bryce said: ‘We were disappointed that Mr Miliband didn’t take up our offer to engage with this vibrant community.’ Refused to contribute: While David Cameron, Nick Clegg, Nigel Farage and Nicola Sturgeon all feature, there is no message from Mr Miliband in the magazine . But one leading self-employed businessman said: ‘Labour depends on union subscriptions for funding and in reality, few of the self-employed are union members. This is not so much a slap in the face to the self-employed as a left hook.’ Labour last night denied it had delivered a snub. A party spokesman said: ‘We want to do all we can to ensure a better deal for self-employed people.’ But the Conservatives and Lib Dems seized on the row. Tory chairman Grant Shapps said: ‘Some of our greatest success stories started with a self-employed person and an idea. 'Ed Miliband’s approach is to snub enterprising people and tax them into the ground.’ Lib Dem Treasury Chief Secretary Danny Alexander said: ‘This is another Labour slap in the face for the millions of self-employed who bring energy and dynamism to our economy. This is a vital sector that deserves respect and admiration. ‘Every time figures show this sector is growing, Labour sneer.’

Vijaya Gadde, Twitter's top lawyer, admitted it has been ‘inexcusably slow’ in tackling online trolls . Twitter's top lawyer has admitted it has been ‘inexcusably slow’ in tackling online trolls who make the lives of others a misery. Vijaya Gadde said the social network had let internet abuse go ‘unchecked’ because it did not recognise the scope and scale of the problem. Miss Gadde said Twitter had tripled the size of the team that deals with online abuse – because it had to do better. She made the announcement on the day a study found that 88 per cent of abusive behaviour on social media happens on Twitter. Anti-bullying campaigners have also long complained that Twitter is a sanctuary for trolls who post hateful abuse behind the veil of anonymity. In an article for the Washington Post, Miss Gadde said that running Twitter required constant vigilance but that the company had ‘failed to live up to’ this aim. She admitted that ‘our response times have been inexcusably slow and the substance of our responses too meagre’. Miss Gadde wrote: ‘This is, to put it mildly, not good enough. ‘Freedom of expression means little as our underlying philosophy if we continue to allow voices to be silenced because they are afraid to speak up. We need to do a better job combating abuse without chilling or silencing speech’. Miss Gadde, general counsel for Twitter, said the extra staff the company had hired meant it was responding to five times as many complaints about abuse. The company was also making other changes ‘in ways that won’t be readily apparent’ to ensure its 284million users worldwide are safe. Only last week TV host Sue Perkins quit Twitter after receiving death threats. Sanctuary for trolls: A study found that 88 per cent of abusive behaviour on social media happens on Twitter .

Formula One great Jackie Stewart has bemoaned the downfall of the German Grand Prix and is urging the sport's bosses not to forsake tradition for money as the number of European races on the calendar dwindles. The German GP was erased from the 2015 schedule because of financial problems and F1 commercial head Bernie Ecclestone could not guarantee the future of the iconic Italian Grand Prix. The race had been in doubt due to questions over which circuit would host the race, which has been shared between Hockenheim and Nurburgring in recent seasons. F1 races have started to move away from Europe towards lucrative venues in the Middle East . Nico Rosberg celebrates winning last year's German GP, which has been scrapped from the schedule . Officials from both circuits had voiced concern that time was running out to organise the race, which was scheduled to take place over the weekend of July 17-19. A short FIA statement said no agreement could be reached with Ecclestone, the commercial rights holder (CRH). 'The German Grand Prix has been withdrawn as the CRH and promoter did not reach agreement,' the statement said. The decision means the 2015 season will be shortened to 19 races, with a three-week break between the British Grand Prix on July 5 and the Hungarian Grand Prix on July 26. Former three-time world champion Jackie Stewart wants Europe's 'essential races' to remain unchanged . More races are heading to Asia and the Middle East. Stewart, a three-time world champion, says there should always be a place for the 'essential' races in Germany, Italy, Britain, France and Monaco as they helped 'motorsport to become what it is today.' Stewart told Sportsmail that it's 'terrific we're going to new countries but you still have to respect your heritage.' F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone has not been able to guarantee the future of the Italian Grand Prix .

New York and Connecticut authorities are in search of a woman accused of stealing the identity of a cancer-stricken fashion executive who lay dying in a Manhattan hospital. Surveillance cameras caught the thief taking $9,000 out of the account of Kate Sullivan at Chase branches in Commack and Freeport on September 23, 2014. State police say the female suspect then racked up $4,000 in bills after opening four store credit cards in Sullivan's name in New Haven, Connecticut. Thief: Surveillance cameras caught a thief (left) taking $9,000 out of the account of Kate Sullivan (right) at Chase branches in Commack and Freeport on September 23, 2014 . Sullivan, who had lung cancer, was informed of the fraud while fighting for her life at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York. She died five days later. The 50-year-old had worked as a marketing executive for fashion designers Kimora Lee Simmons and Diane von Furstenberg. According to CBS New York, the suspect had Sullivan's Social Security number and a signed copy of her driver's license. Other documents she allegedly used were forged. Sullivan's family was, unsurprisingly, horrified by the news. 'I was just pretty violated and felt kind of helpless standing there with my sister and then knowing that there's some woman trying to clear out her bank account while she lays here fighting for her life,' her sister, Sarah Sullivan, told CBS New York. State police say the female suspect then racked up $4,000 in bills after opening four store credit cards in Sullivan's name in New Haven, Connecticut . The thief posed as Sullivan in Chase branches in two Long Island towns. A teller at one of the locations caught the fake documents but the suspect fled before authorities could be called . 'I just want to make sure nobody else goes through what my family's been going through the last couple of months.' In the weeks following Sullivan's death, her sister discovered new store and credit card bills in Sullivan's mail . 'I've had to fax death certificates and affidavits to all of the creditors and fly in to meet with the police and lots of other stuff I didn't need to deal with while I'm mourning my sister's death,' she said. Detectives from New Haven were scheduled to speak with a New York State Police investigator Thursday afternoon, according to city police spokesman Officer David Hartman. Detectives in the New Haven Police Department's Financial Crimes Division were shown a picture of the suspect and none are aware of any connection to open New Haven cases at this time. The 50-year-old had worked as a marketing executive for fashion designers Kimora Lee Simmons and Diane von Furstenberg .

Jeremy Clarkson has become a green campaigner, Simon Cowell is going to be put on the £5 note and the Leaning Tower of Pisa is becoming a luxury hotel, it emerged today. But before you get too excited about this string of massive news stories, it might be a good idea to check the date - because all the revelations are nothing more than April Fool's Day pranks. And sharp-eyed readers may have noticed that the Mail also joined in with the trend - our exclusive story about safari park visitors' cars being protected from monkeys with bubble wrap was, sadly, made up. Among the other jokes to sneak into the news today were Tesco's new trampoline aisles, and the claim that the Manchester United team is picked using the power of astrology. Scroll down for video . Made up: Contrary to what the Mail reported, Longleat Safari Park is not putting bubble wrap around visitors' cars . Mock-up: But the safari park in fact has no need of such drastic measures to protect against monkey mayhem . The Guardian's Polli Faro reported that Mr Clarkson had renounced his petrol-loving ways after a 'dark night of the soul', and decided he wanted to devote his post-Top Gear life to campaigning against carbon emissions. He supposedly told the paper that he had started driving a Toyota Prius, and wanted the Government to lower the national speed limit to 20mph, or 45mph on the motorways. 'There comes a time when a man's got to ask himself what he really stands for,' Mr Clarkson is quoted as saying. 'And for me, that's sustainable energy, traffic calming and an end to xenophobia and prejudice.' The Sun revealed that the £5 note is set to be redesigned with Simon Cowell's face on it after a public poll to find the most popular celebrities. David Beckham and Helen Mirren were also reported to be replacing the Queen on banknotes in the near future. Pranks: Jeremy Clarkson is now a green campaigner and Simon Cowell will be put on the £5 note, according to April Fool's Day reports . Innovation: Tesco claims to be introducing bouncy aisles in a publicity campaign including Lucy Mecklenburgh from The Only Way Is Essex . The Independent took a dig at Leicester University's publicity campaign surrounding the discovery of Richard III in the city - claiming that the institution is renaming itself King Richard University in tribute. The university's campus bar will be named 'Carnage@Bosworth', while the main administrative building is to be called Hunchback House, the paper added. It quoted a source as saying: 'Our research shows that up to 10 per cent of people in some countries aren't aware that it was the University of Leicester which found the skeleton of Richard III. Changing the name of the university is the natural next step.' The Telegraph reported that the Leaning Tower of Pisa will be turned into a luxury hotel, called 3.99 Degrees after the angle at which the building tilts. The new hotel will be marketed to Arab tourists, the paper said, but it will require special beds with different-sized legs to combat the slope of the tower. Another story in the paper suggested that top bookshop Foyles had created a new type of bookmark, the 'boo!mark', which emits a loud noise whenever anyone falls asleep while reading. Sacrilege: The Telegraph says that the Leaning Tower of Pisa is going to become a luxury hotel . On sale: The BBC claimed to be offering a replica codpiece inspired by Wolf Hall . Police sparked a Twitter alert after urging followers to vote for their 'favourite' prison inmate to get them freed early as part of an April Fool's prank. Officers in Radcliffe, Greater Manchester used the force Twitter page to post a message on the site at midnight stating: 'Know someone in prison? 'You can get them released early by voting for them on here. The prisoners with the most votes also wins a holiday.' Other tweets on the @GMPRadcliffe page added: 'I have been told it is two weeks in a five star hotel in Cyprus for two people and £500 spending money. It is a goodwill gesture from the politicians due to the election coming soon.' The message sparked a flurry of activity with users claiming prison was a 'holiday camp anyway', and jokingly using the hashtag #NeedHoliday to confess to carrying out their own crimewaves. In the Daily Express, it was claimed that Tesco is set to bring in trampoline aisle which allow customers to bounce up and reach the top shelves with ease. The Daily Mirror turned its attentions to the forthcoming general election, reporting that a new Office for Estimation has been set up which will use social media to decide who should run the country during coalition negotiations. Another political story came from The Sun, which said that Ed Miliband is planning to dye his hair blond in an attempt to become more like the Mayor of London. A Labour source told the paper: 'Through Boris, he has seen that hair is something that people care about.' The Local.es, an English-language news site based in Spain, reported that the popular holiday resort of Benidorm had banned the full English breakfast - a move which could strike terror into the hearts of British tourists. Local officials urged holidaymakers to try Spanish specialities such as tortillas or pan con tomate, the website claimed. Flipped: Visitors to com.google are presented with this mirror image version of the search engine homepage . Drone: An image of the 'Domi-No-Driver', which supposedly delivers pizza without human intervention . Actor David Suchet got together with his radio presenter brother John for one of the more ambitious pranks - he filled in on John's Classic FM show without telling listeners. Many fans expressed concerns that the presenter might have a cold because he sounded so different, only for David to reveal that he was in fact an impostor. Google is usually keen to join in with the April Fool's fun, and this year was no different as the web giant unleashed at least three different pranks. The search engine revealed a mirror-image version of its homepage, which can be accessed by typing in com.google and shows search results flipped around. It also jumped on the selfie bandwagon, announcing a new service allowing users to share instant photographic reactions to any website they visit. And the site's 'Fiber' division, which is rolling out high-speed internet across the US, claimed to have a new dial-up mode which replicates the experience of using the web 20 years ago in order to induce a feeling of zen-like calm. Mumsnet was another website to make a hoax announcement as it claimed to be founding a political party, the MNP, which will represent the interest of mothers. New resident: The Battersea Dogs and Cats Home claimed to have taken possession of a lion . Job ad: The BBC is apparently recruiting for a 'Director of Better', according to an absurdly verbose ad . The sporting world was not immune from April Fool's gags - the Evening Standard reported that Arsenal and Chelsea have commissioned a joint sculpture of controversial footballer Ashley Cole, wearing a shirt with both clubs' colours on it. And it emerged in The Sun that Manchester United boss Louis Van Gaal uses astrology to pick his teams, only choosing players whose star signs are compatible with one another. The Independent had a scoop about a new form of football technology, left-footed balls crafted specifically for players who prefer using their left rather than right. In showbiz, it was claimed in the Radio Times that Ant and Dec were planning to add a third person to their line-up - Strictly Come Dancing's Anton du Beke. The new trio, dubbed 'Ant and Dec and Anton du Beke', will make their television debut on February 30 next year. The BBC also joined in the fun as it announced it would be selling a 'replica Tudor codpiece' based on Wolf Hall, available in Henry VIII, Henry IX and Henry XXL sizes. Local newspapers across the UK took the opportunity to prank their readers - the Liverpool Echo carried disturbing reports off a great white shark in the River Mersey, while the Western Telegraph revealed that Batman star Christian Bale is set to be immortalised in his home town of Haverfordwest with a 12ft gold statue. Workout: Virgin Trains' new 'Fitness Coach' allows passengers to exercise while on the move . Trend: Miz Mooz said it was introducing 'selfie shoes' to cash in on the narcissistic fashion . Domino's was among the companies to make April Fool's announcements, posting a video on Vine of its new 'Domi-No-Driver', a drone motorcycle which can deliver pizzas without any human intervention. Battersea Dogs and Cats Home shared a picture supposedly showing a lion, called April, which is currently living alongside smaller felines in the home, and Australian airline Qantas claimed to have changed its name to 'Quantas' - bringing an end to years of confusion over the bizarre spelling. The BBC took a dig at its own reputation for incomprehensible corporate-speak, issuing a job ad looking for a 'Director of Better' who can 're-set the dial'. Virgin Trains and Virgin Active announced a new 'Fitness Coach', allowing passengers to exercise while they travel, and Transport for London claimed that commuters should now stand on the left and walk on the right, a reverse of the usual situation. Shoe company Miz Mooz made fun of selfie sticks with its 'selfie shoes', footwear with a hole in the end which can fit a smartphone in.

While April Fool's Day may be thought of as a time for childish pranks, a number of more highbrow institutions also took part by issuing made-up announcements. Nature, one of the world's leading scientific journals, published a hoax paper suggesting that dragons may in fact be real, and charting their prevalence against the rise and fall of global temperatures. The Royal Albert Hall also carried out its own April Fool's prank, releasing a letter supposedly from its archives criticising the Beatles for referring to the building in their song A Day in the Life. In the letter, an official tells the band's manager that they must not claim there are 4,000 holes in the Albert Hall, adding: 'Even if you count the doorways as holes, that would only make 32.'

'Exploited by criminals': Gambian footballer Baboucarr Ceesay (above) was among the 900 migrants who died in the Mediterranean boat disaster, his British aunt has revealed . A British woman has revealed how her nephew was among the 900 migrants who drowned in the Mediterranean boat disaster. Baboucarr Ceesay, a talented footballer from The Gambia, is believed to have died on the fishing boat in a 'desperate' attempt to seek a new life in the UK. His aunt Jessica Sey, from Cheltenham, has spoken of her devastation after discovering that he was not among the 27 survivors and demanded the human traffickers be brought to justice. She said: 'He had his head turned and his money taken by criminals who are responsible for thousands of deaths. It's the biggest shock of my life. 'His mother will never get his body back. She'll never be able to ask him why he did it.' She said her two daughters were 'absolutely gobsmacked' by news of the 21-year-old's death. Mrs Sey and her Gambian-born husband lived in the west African country for around five years. She said her nephew played first division football in The Gambia, was the eldest of four siblings and appeared to enjoy a comfortable life. She told the Gloucestershire Echo: 'His mother, Jabou, has lost two husbands and had a really tough time through no fault of her own. 'Nobody is surprised that Baboucarr wanted to make the most of his life but there was absolutely no need for him to do this. 'He wanted to come to Europe but he would never have been granted a visa. In his young head, the logical way out was to do it illegally.' Mr Ceesay and a friend, Alagie, bought a car and then 'just disappeared', she added. Horror: Jessica Sey, from Cheltenham, has spoken of her devastation after discovering that her nephew Baboucarr Ceesay was among the 900 migrants who drowned in the Mediterranean boat disaster . The pair then took a boat from the Gambian capital Banjul to Guinea, where they crossed the Sahara and made their way to a Libyan migrant camp. Because they had money in their pockets, they didn't stay in the camp for long and were pushed to the front of the queue. But when the boat arrived, a riot broke out in the camp and everyone fought for a place on the boat. Mr Ceesay managed to get on and was placed one of the holds, possibly becoming one of those who were locked in below deck, unable to escape. Alagie was left behind. Some 900 people are feared to have drowned when the overcrowded boat capsized off the coast of Libya on Sunday in the worst maritime disaster since the end of World War Two. When news arrived that the boat had sunk, Alagie had to call Mr Ceesay's family. Tragedy: Members of the crew Italian Coast Guard ship Gregoretti carry bodies of some of the 900 victims from the Mediterranean's migrant boat tragedy in Valletta's Grand Harbour, Malta, earlier this week . Mrs Sey said: 'He's left a huge, very loving family absolutely distraught. 'It's so easy for us in our ivory towers to criticise them, but we have no idea what their lives are like. Barbaric human traffickers are separating migrants by race, locking those with the darkest skin below deck where death is inevitable if the boat sinks, survivors have told. Teenagers arriving on the Italian island of Lampedusa told how passengers from sub-Saharan Africa were placed in the hold with no water, sunlight or, crucially, means of escape. One boy from Somalia told aid workers from Save The Children: 'The Libyans who got me to Italy are not human. 'They pushed eight Nigerians into the sea. They all drowned.' Conversely, Yusuf, a 17-year-old Palestinian boy who fled Gaza for Italy in February, said he was placed on an upper level with other people from the Middle East, it was reported by The Independent. 'Even Baboucarr, who was relatively well off by Gambian standards.' Alagie is still in Libya and his family is desperate for him to return home safely. European governments were today under mounting pressure to act decisively on the Mediterranean migrant crisis as harrowing details emerged of the fate of those who died in the worst tragedy to date. With the crisis set to be discussed at an emergency summit today, allegations of callous disregard for Arab and African lives are pushing EU leaders to respond to a disaster. The vast majority of those on board were locked in the hold or the middle deck of the 20-metre (66-foot) boat when it capsized following a collision with a Portuguese cargo ship responding to its distress signal. Only 27, including two crew members who have been arrested, survived and 24 bodies have been recovered. Charged with manslaughter: Tunisian boat captain Mohammed Ali Malek (centre) is seen speaking to a nurse on an Italian coastguard ship before being arrested over the deaths of 900 migrants . A police handout showing Mohammed Ali Malek (left) and Mahmud Bikhit (right) after their arrest in Malta . Survivors have described the moment the doomed ship sank, telling how how they clung to dead bodies in the pitch black sea in order to stay afloat. They also accused the captain of being drunk moments before he rammed another ship, causing the tragedy. Bangladeshi Riajul Islam, 17, said the only reason he survived was because he was on the top deck and knew how to swim. Nasir Khan, a fellow 17-year-old Bangladeshi, said he was also on the top deck and lived by clinging on to a life vest. The stricken boat initially set off from Egypt and then stopped off on the Libyan coast near the city Zuwarah to pick up more passengers, it has been reported. It set off from Libya on Saturday and sent out a distress signal shortly before midnight 120 miles south of the Italian island of Lampedusa. It later capsized.

Yaya Toure's agent has called Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini a 'weak manager' and criticised the club's chief executive Ferran Soriano and director of football Txiki Begiristain. Toure's performances have come under the microscope amid a dismal run for City which has seen them go from title contenders to being in a battle simply to finish in the top four. But agent Dimitri Seluk has claimed the club are trying to make Toure a scapegoat for bigger problems behind the scenes. The agent of Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure (left) has called Manuel Pellegrini, his manager, 'weak' Pellegrini has struggled this with the champions this season, and Dimitri Seluk has placed blame on him . 'Some people at City are trying to blame Yaya for what has happened this season,' he said. 'But those people aren't taking responsibility for their own mistakes. 'I am talking about executives who have bought players for a lot of money - and then put those players on the bench. Executives who spend a lot of money on Stevan Jovetic and then drop him from the Champions League squad. I feel sorry for Pellegrini. He's a good coach, but a weak manager. 'He won the title with the team left behind by (predecessor) Roberto Mancini.' Toure, whose relationship with the club came under strain last summer, has been linked with a move away this summer, with Mancini making clear his interest in signing the 31-year-old for Inter Milan. Seluk said that it was wrong to criticise Toure over City's struggles and blamed the manager and executives . Pellegrini was described as a good coach but a weak manager by Toure's agent in a scathing attack . 'If City want Yaya to leave, they should come out and say so,' Seluk told the Sunday Mirror. 'Two of the biggest clubs have already asked me if he is available, and I know that if City would sell, another 10 would call me inside 24 hours.' City go into Sunday afternoon's match against West Ham four points above fifth-placed Liverpool and with the pressure firmly on Pellegrini. Txiki Begiristain (left) Manchester City's director of football, Ferran Soriano (centre) the CEO were criticised . Seluk picked out the decision to buy Stevan Jovetic and then leave him out of the Champions League squad . The Chilean has maintained he is not worried about his job, but admitted that could change if they dropped out of the Champions League places. 'You are wrong if you think that, at this club, if you don't win the title then you are out,' he said in a number of national newspapers. 'If we miss the top four then maybe it will be different because that would not be the same thing, the analysis of the season will be different.'

Keith Anderson attacked two men who he asked for a cigarette last year. He left one, an Army Lance Corporal, in a coma and severely brain damaged . A violent thug who ended a soldier's career with one punch because he wasn't given a cigarette has been jailed for seven years. Lance Corporal Albert Duffy had survived bomb blasts during a glittering military career which saw him complete three tours of war-ravaged Afghanistan. But after returning home to the UK, he was attacked at a bus stop by drink and drug-crazed Keith Anderson and left with severe brain damage. Just minutes before the attack, Anderson had punched another man, injuring him and leaving him incapable of work for a month. The 28-year-old thug 'bounced around, triumphantly like a boxer' after the assaults, a court heard this week. A judge was told the soldier had high hopes of progressing through the ranks, but is now unlikely to return to the military. Jailing Anderson for seven years at Teesside Crown Court this week, Recorder Patrick Palmer said: 'Albert Duffy was enjoying his career in the army. 'He was doing his bit for the United Kingdom and served abroad and served in combat and it seems highly unlikely he will return to his career. Your one punch destroyed that.' The court heard Anderson first attacked Adam Crosby at a bus stop in Hartlepool town centre on July 26 last year. He was angered that he only offered him the remainder of the cigarette he was smoking. Mr Crosby had to take a month off work at his family firm after he was left with a fractured cheek bone and damage to his teeth and nose. Anderson then walked to a nearby bus stop where L/Cpl Duffy was waiting and punched him to the ground after he failed to produce a cigarette. The soldier was left him slumped on the ground, bleeding from his ears and in a coma for 14 days. He sustained a fractured skull and needed two rounds of surgery after suffering haemorrhages, with part of his brain being removed. L/Cpl Duffy, from Darlington, County Durham, was a member of the 3 Rifles Infantry Battalion and had served in the Army for more than ten years, seeing colleagues killed and injured in Afghanistan. Teesside Crown Court heard Lance Corporal Albert Duffy's military career had been ruined by the attack . He escaped with his life in 2009 after a vehicle he was in hit an improvised explosive device. He was blown 15 feet into the air, but suffered only a broken foot. Since the attack, he has gone from one of the fittest in his battalion to a man who struggles to put together sentences, the court heard. He also has hearing problems and has little short-term memory, the judge was told. His mother, Marie Briggs, says she no longer recognises him as the caring son once looked up to by his seven siblings and her three-step children. In a statement to the court, L/Cpl Duffy said: 'I don't know what I'll do if I don't have the Army in my life and I have fought for my country. 'I find it difficult to comprehend how my life has been ruined by a male from Hartlepool, who punched me for no reason.' Fellow-victim Mr Crosby told the court: 'I'm 25, I should be enjoying myself, but this attack has had a massive affect on me.' Robin Turton, prosecuting, said when Anderson was arrested on July 30, he asked police: 'Is that me you're looking for in the paper' after seeing headlines as officers appealed for help. He also asked about the condition of one of the victims, but made no comment when he was interviewed. L/Cpl Duffy and the other victim, Adam Crosby, were set upon at a bus stop in Hartlepool in July last year . Mr Crosby's blood was found on clothing seized from Anderson's home in Hartlepool. Anderson admitted grievous bodily harm against Mr Crosby and grievous bodily harm with intent for the attack on L/Cpl Duffy. He was sentenced to two years for the attack on Mr Crosby and seven for the assault on L/Clp Duffy to run concurrently. Neil Mullarkey, mitigating, said Anderson had started to tackle his drink problem since he was remanded in custody. He added: 'He is disgusted with himself and thinks about what he has done every day and is ashamed.' The court heard that Anderson already has 19 convictions for 39 offences, including punching and head butting two women in a takeaway and an assault in which he used a pool ball in a sock to attack a man in a pub. But Recorder Mr Palmer stopped short of classifying him as a 'dangerous offender', which would have allowed the judge to jail Anderson indefinitely.

Sleepy kid: Brock Guzman, 8, was last seen inside his parents silver 2001 Toyota Corolla. Authorities said the Northern California boy fell asleep in the backseat of the car and was kidnapped when the vehicle was stolen . An eight-year-old boy who took a snooze in the backseat of his family's car, apparently slept through his own kidnapping after the car was stolen from in front of his home. Brock Guzman was found safe and well about two miles away from his Northern Californian home in the abandoned car following a frantic search for him. Police said a hapless car thief likely stole the 2001 Toyota Corolla after the boy's father left it running and briefly unattended in front of his home. But the car thief clearly didn't notice the boy curled up on the backseat fast asleep as he sped away with the vehicle. The boy's father said he had placed Brock in the Corolla at around 4:45 a.m., and started the engine. He then went back into the house in Fairfield to get some belongings and his older son, who attends school 40 miles away in Napa. However, when the father went back outside, the car was gone and an unfamiliar bicycle lay nearby. In a blind panic, he hopped into another family vehicle and sped off in search of the Corolla. The boy's mother frantically called 911, and authorities issued an Amber Alert. Less than four hours later, a resident called police and said the car was parked in their neighborhood. When officers cautiously approached it at around 8:15 a.m., the suspect was gone and Brock was still asleep. He was not injured. Fairfield police Officer Kathryn McCormick said: 'We don't know for sure if he slept through the whole thing, but it looks that way. We hope that was the case.' Police do not have a description of the suspect and say it appears that the thief did not know the child was sleeping in the backseat. 'At this point, we are investigating this as a crime of opportunity,' McCormick said. Car theft: According to police, a hapless thief likely stole the 2001 Toyota, similar to the model of car pictured here, after the boy's father left it running and briefly unattended and didn't notice him inside .

The axe wielding thug who attempted to rob a shop but was restrained by a husband and wife duo has been unmasked as a prolific offender, who has committed more than 1,000 offences since his began his crime spree at the age of 11. Shaun Andrew McKerry, 31, was arrested after he burst into Shildon Post Office and Stores in County Durham wielding an axe and demanding cash, as an accomplice stood at the door. But he was foiled after shopkeeper Sab Dhillon heard McKarry's demands and ran from the back of the shop and rugby tackled him to the floor. Mr Dhillon's wife then appeared clutching her son's baseball bat and managed to subdue him further. Scroll down for video . Prolific thief Shaun Andrew McKerry was once dubbed 'Boomerang Boy' because he always returned home after his many crimes, and he has been unmasked as the axe wielding thief in an attempted post office robbery - where he was subdued by the owner who rugby tackled him and his wife with a baseball bat (left) McKerry was dubbed 'Boomerang Boy' in the 1990s after he was arrested 80 times in 1995 and 45 times during the 36 weeks he managed to stay out of prison in 1998. He got his nickname because he always returned home after his crimes. He committed his first offence at the age of 11 and in the next five years went on to commit 1,000 crimes. His own mother even previously pleaded for her teenage son, known as a one man crime wave, to be locked up. McKerry pleaded guilty at Durham Crown Court, via videolink from prison, to attempted robbery from the post office on March 15. CCTV footage of the incident shows the 31-year-old burst into the store and demand terrified assistant Andrea Brighty fill his bag with money. But Mr Dhillon heard the incident and ran from the back of the store to pounce on McKerry. After a scuffle Mr Dhillon managed to restrain the man in a stranglehold and his wife then appeared, further subduing the man - whose face was covered with a scarf and hood - by hitting him with a baseball bat. McKerry is pictured in handcuffs at the age of 15 when he was committing strings of offences in the area . As Mr Dhillon held him, the shop assistant removed McKerry's scarf so his face could be shown to the cameras. His accomplice, who had been standing guard at the door when they burst in, fled. Mrs Dhillon said: 'It was really scary. We didn't realise who he was at the time and how bad his previous convictions were.' Her husband told the Northern Echo: 'He did not hit me but there was a good chance that he could have as he was waving the axe about blindly while he was on the floor. Mr Dhillon said McKerry was waving the axe around when he jumped on him and wrestled him to the floor . 'I am OK and we're trying to get over it and we just want to put this behind us.' McKerry, who will be sentenced on April 24, is known by the nickname 'Boomerang Boy' or 'Homing Pigeon Boy' because he always returned home after his crimes. He once stole 22 charity boxes while dressed as a woman, and locals dubbed him a one-man crime wave. His catalogue of offending included car chases with police, a string of burglary convictions, aggravated vehicle taking, sending indecent letters, witness intimidation, threatening behaviour, assaulting a police officer, attempted robbery, shoplifting, criminal damage and countless breaches of curfew, community sentences and offending while on bail. CCTV images show Mr Dhillon pouncing on 31-year-old McKerry, armed with an axe, from behind . Mr Dhillon and the terrified shop assistant (right) subdued McKerry and revealed his face for the cameras . Mr Dhillon tackled McKerry and both he and his wife said they did not realise his criminal history at the time . McKerry's case was even brought to the attention of then Prime Minister Tony Blair, who later announced a crackdown on so called 'bail-bandits'. He began offending from the age of 11, and has clocked up dozens of court appearances. On March 11, 1999, McKerry, of County Durham, had already been arrested five times between January 22 and February 10. Shaun Andrew McKerry started offending at the age of 11 when he committed his first theft in 1995. Between 1995 and 2000 he clocked up 1,000 offences. In the 12 months of 1995 he was arrested 80 times. McKerry managed to stay out of prison for 36 weeks in 1998, and was arrested 45 times. He was arrested five times between January 22 and February 10, 1999. McKerry became known as a one man crime wave and was dubbed Boomerang Boy because he always returned home, police knowing where to find him. His mother even called for her teenage son to be arrested. In 1999 she said: 'I love him as a son but I hate the person he has become.' In one of his earlier crimes McKerry stole 22 charity boxes while dressed as a woman. By the age of 15 McKerry had convictions for aggravated vehicle-taking, sending indecent letters, and burglary. When he was 16 McKerry was sentenced to four years in a young offenders' institution for robbing a village postmaster at knifepoint. At the age of 18 he was out of prison and had offended again, but was given a 'second chance' by magistrates. Just three days later he was back again. From then on he stuck to low level crimes to feed his drug habit. In 2011 he was jailed for four years after he admitted robbery after stealing £90 from a takeaway delivery man in Coundon while armed with a six inch kitchen knife. In March he was rugby tackled and restrained by Sab Dhillon when he went into the store, armed with an axe and demanded cash. He has 55 previous convictions. He boasted after one court appearance he would be back and returned just 48 hours later on suspicion of taking a car. The 15-year-old was then placed on a supervision order despite a report to magistrates that he was a danger to the public. Magistrates tried to provide him with a string of second chances and opportunities to rehabilitate himself - but each time he re-offended. In February 2000 the press won a landmark legal victory to name him when the Lord Chief Justice ruled Bishop Auckland Youth Court had done nothing legally wrong when it agreed to the paper's application to lift the juvenile's automatic right to anonymity. Lord Bingham said he had taken a great interest in the case which centred on the individual youth's right to freedom and anonymity against the public's right to be better protected by knowing his identity. As he continued to offend McKerry developed a drug problem and stole to feed his habit. Six months later McKerry, then 16, was sentenced to four years in a young offenders' institution for robbing a village postmaster at knifepoint. This was later cut on appeal but by March 2002, aged 18, he was back behind bars again after admitting two new offences - three days after being given yet another 'last chance' by magistrates. McKerry had been granted bail after admitting theft on a Monday but was picked up 48 hours later after helping raid a Bishop Auckland clothing shop. In 2002 his mother Paula Harp, 32, pleaded for him to be arrested after she said he had ruined her life. She claimed he started to offend because he was a bit of a loner, and began doing minor things like throwing stones before his behaviour escalated. In recent years, much of his offending has been for the theft of low value items, from shops in the south-west Durham area. But in May, 2011 he was jailed for four years at Durham Crown Court which heard he only had 18 months to live if his drug and alcohol abuse continued. McKerry admitted robbery after stealing £90 from a takeaway delivery man in Coundon while armed with a six inch kitchen knife. His lawyer said he had deep vein thrombosis and cirrhosis of the liver, as a result of years of substance abuse. The court heard he had 55 previous convictions for 120 offences.

Ed Miliband is paying an Argentinian company which has attacked ‘vulture’ American bankers to help him become Prime Minister. Left-wing, Buenos Aires-based Tectonica is responsible for the websites of more than 200 Labour parliamentary candidates, including senior figures such as Shadow Foreign Secretary and Election chief Douglas Alexander and Shadow Defence Minister Vernon Coaker, who oversee the Party’s policy on the Falklands. It also designed the websites of Harriet Harman, Andy Burnham and Tristram Hunt. Ed Miliband is paying an Argentinian company which has attacked ‘vulture’ American bankers to help him become Prime Minister . Tory MPs last night claimed Labour’s Argentinian link was an ‘embarrassment’ for Miliband. Tectonica – dubbed ‘Argie & Argie’ in a jokey reference to Saatchi & Saatchi, the agency that famously helped Margaret Thatcher win the 1979 Election – is best known for its aggressive campaign against the US in a row over Argentina’s debt crisis, which dates back to the 1982 Falklands War. Its website echoes Argentinian President Cristina Kirchner’s attack on ‘senile’ US judge Thomas Griesa, who ruled last year that Argentina must drop its refusal to pay back nearly £1 billion to US investors. Conservative MP Nadhim Zahawi said: ‘If Ed Miliband becomes Prime Minister he would plunge Britain into debt so it is no surprise he is trying to win using a company that believes governments should default on their debts. ‘Britain has the best website designers in the world, yet Labour chooses a firm from Argentina to work for them. It is absurd and deeply embarrassing for them.’ Tectonica also designed the websites of Harriet Harman (left), Andy Burnham (right) and Tristram Hunt .

A hero doctor put his own life on the line to rescue one of his colleagues, by offering to swap places with her when a knife-wielding patient took her hostage. Accident and emergency doctor Lin Xikun knew exactly what he had to do when he walked in on nurse Long Yufang being threatened with a knife by a bare-chested man. The People's Daily Online reported he immediately offered himself up as an alternate hostage - allowing Long to go free. Hostage: The terrifying moment a man walked into a hospital in China and threatened a nurse with a knife was caught on film . The terrifying situation began at about 11am on April 9, when the man walked into the hospital in Dongguan, Guangdong Province. He had been brought in by police the night before. 'He told people that he didn't have any money to get home and not only did he not find anyone willing to give him the money to go home, he injured his leg in the process,' emergency department nurse Huang Chunyan recalled. When he returned the next day, he was carrying a knife. Video footage shows the man wheeling himself to the pharmacy, before he takes the knife out to threaten the nurse. But when he sat down with her, he reassured her: 'Don't worry, I am not going to harm you.' However, he did ask her to call the police and reporters. But Nurse Long - who realised now she would not be harmed - had already screamed out in fear. Hero: Within moments one of the accident and emergency doctors (right) walked in and took her place . Dr Lin heard the scream, and rushed to her aid. Nurse Huang said: 'Dr Lin then told the man "Look you are scaring the nurse. She is terrified. You just want a hostage right? Let me swap places with her".' The hostage taker agreed, and Dr Lin went to sit with him - allowing the nurse, who was clearly terrified, to escape. His ordeal went on for a further 10 minutes before the local police arrived, and the hostage taker voluntarily put the knife down. Gentleman: Doctor Lun Xikun, pictured in the room later, managed to keep him calm until the police arrived . However, his brave actions have won the doctor a legion of fans. 'He is like a real gentleman. Like a God,' one nurse said. A police spokesman said later the man had no intention of harming anyone, but just wanted to highlight his plight.

Peter Moore (above), from Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, received a letter from HM Revenue and Customs last week telling him he had died . A father-of-two has been sent a letter from the Government telling him he is dead. Peter Moore was shocked after receiving the document from HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) last week. The letter was addressed to the 'representative' of Peter William John Moore and apologised for the family's 'recent bereavement'. It added that officials needed to sort out whether Mr Moore had paid enough - or too much - tax. The 47-year-old pottery factory worker, from Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, yesterday demanded an apology from the Government. He said: 'I don't know how that kind of mistake could have been made. 'I used to work away in the week so if that would have happened my wife could have really started to worry. ‘She opened the letter when I was out of the house. Fortunately I came back home about five minutes after she read it so she knew it was a mistake but that might not have always been the case. 'I rang the tax people and the lady on the other end said she couldn't believe it. I was just really shocked, it's just all a bit strange.' Mr Moore's wife Debbie, an accounts assistant, said she was left ‘gobsmacked’ until her husband walked through the door. The 43-year-old added: 'It's really not nice getting a letter from HMRC - especially when what they're saying hasn't really happened. I was gobsmacked. 'When I read it I thought it was a scam or some sort of joke. I showed it to Pete when he came in and he got straight on the phone to the tax office.' The letter from the Government department read: 'I am sorry to hear about your recent bereavement and recognise that this is a difficult time for you. The letter was addressed to the 'representative' of Peter William John Moore, pictured outside his home last week, and apologised for the family's 'recent bereavement'. It added that officials needed to sort out whether Mr Moore had paid enough - or too much - tax . Dear Sir/Madam, . Estate of MR PETER MOORE . I am sorry to hear of your recent bereavement and recognise that this is a difficult time for you. When someone dies, I need to work out if they paid the right amount of tax before their death. In many cases, HMRC repays tax to the estate. I need to know details of the person responsible for finalising their affairs. This person can be known as the executor, administrator or the personal representative. [...] . The personal representative may want to nominate somebody like a solicitor or an accountant to act on their behalf. If so, they can use the other side of this letter to do this. [...] . Yours faithfully, . Derek Hughes . Deputy Director, Personal Tax . 'When someone dies, I need to work out if they paid the right amount of tax before their death. In many cases, HMRC repays tax to the estate. 'I need to know details of the person responsible for finalising their affairs.' A spokesman for HMRC said: 'We don't talk about individual cases but when we make mistakes we aim to put them right fast and apologise.'

Brendan Rodgers has vowed to do 'what is best' for Daniel Sturridge as the Liverpool striker's injury misery shows no sign of relenting. Sturridge will again be absent for Tuesday night's trip to Hull and while Rodgers will not take the drastic step of calling time on his campaign, he remains unsure whether the England international will play again this season. The 25-year-old missed five months with calf and thigh issues and he is now battling to overcome a hip problem that was sustained in the 2-1 defeat to Manchester United on March 22. Daniel Sturridge may not play again this season because of a series of calf and thigh injuries . Sturridge will miss Liverpool's trip to face Hull City on Tuesday night because of injury problems . Rodgers concedes it has been a difficult year for Sturridge but maintains Liverpool's medical department will continue to nurse him back to full fitness; the manager is also determined to bring in players to ease the burden on him next season. 'It had been difficult for Daniel,' said Rodgers. 'He wants to work and play. We are just going to have to monitor it. He is a good lad and when he had been fit, he has been brilliant for us. 'He is not available, we will do what is in the best interest of him. He is going to be here for the next number of years. 'There are always names associated. It is certainly something that we need to address. Daniel is top class but we need to give him help. 'You are nearly talking about a 100 per cent deficit. We have had 14 clean sheets. That side of the game has been addressed but we need to improve the critical area.' Manchester United's defeat at Everton on Sunday has, in the words of Louis van Gaal, given Liverpool 'a glimmer of light' in the race for the top four and United's advantage could be down to one point by the time they next play. Brendan Rodgers is adamant he will strengthen this summer and is keen on signing Memphis Depay . West Brom defender Craig Dawson tugs Raheem Sterling's shirt as he challenges him for the ball . Sterling is sent tumbling to the turf by a sliding tackle from West Brom defender Dawson at the Hawthorns . Italian striker Mario Balotelli keeps his eyes focused on the ball on a rare start for Liverpool at the Hawthorns . For that to happen, Liverpool will need to beat both Hull and Queens Park Rangers and, suddenly, the 0-0 draw they had against West Brom on Saturday looks very costly but Rodgers has promised his players will not give up the chase. 'It will be a tough game at Hull,' said Rodgers. 'The idea is to go and get the victory to put the pressure on the teams above. 'We dominated the ball so much at West Brom, we expected to win the game. I was pleased with how the players applied themselves. Liverpool midfielder Jordan Ibe holds off West Brom's Chris Brunt during a goalless draw at the Hawthorns . Liverpool midfielder Philippe Coutinho has a shot from just inside West Brom's half after a poor clearance . 'We were relentless in our pressure but we couldn't find the breakthrough. We have set our new goals for the remainder of the season. 'If we can win the games, that will put pressure on. United have a clear advantage but all we can do is look after ourselves. Rodgers, who revealed there are no further update on new contracts for Martin Skrtel and Jordon Ibe, added: 'It is always good to finish the season strong. We want to fight right until the very end against Stoke.' Balotelli finds himself surrounded by Joleon Lescott and Gareth McAuley during another goalless afternoon .

Tiger Woods has been spotted hitting balls on the practice range at Augusta National, increasing hopes the former world No 1 will confirm his appearance at this year's first Major. Woods has not appeared on the PGA Tour since withdrawing from the Farmers Insurance Open on February 5 with a recurrence of his back problems. He has since taken a leave of absence in a bid to return to form, but there has been speculation he will return for the Masters, a tournament he has won four times. Tiger Woods was spotted practising at Augusta on Tuesday and is said to have returned to the course . Woods has dropped out of the top 100 for the first time in almost 19 years . Tiger Woods made his first appearance at the Masters as a 19-year-old back on April 3, 1995. Woods said he was not impressed by the iconic venue when he first drove through the gates. He said: 'When I first arrived here — Magnolia Lane, is that it? — I thought that it was a pretty short drive. 'From what everyone says, it’s majestic and a long drive, you can’t believe it, and this, that and the other.' Tiger played 18 holes at the course on Tuesday and insiders from the Golf Channel say he has now returned to the venue for a practice session. Woods did not play last year's Masters following back surgery - the first time he had missed the event since he first played it in 1995. On Monday, Woods dropped out of the top 100 in the world rankings for the first time in almost 19 years. The 14-time major winner did not record a top-10 finish in nine starts in 2014, and has missed three cuts and withdrawn twice in his last six Tour starts. Woods' last title came at the World Golf Championships-Bridgestone Invitational in August 2013. Woods, pictured driving off the 10th tee in April 1995, made his Masters debut 20 years ago . Woods has won the Masters on four separate occasions with his last win coming in 2005 .

The family of a Bristol woman killed on holiday in France by a parasite-ridden historic tree has been paid £86,000 in compensation. Carolyn Thorpe, 62, was enjoying a cup of coffee outside a cafe in Hiers-Brouage, a seaside town in south-west France, when the 20-foot tree toppled and crushed her to death in 2007. Her daughter Sarah Wright was also injured by the American ash tree, which was planted 200 years ago to mark the birth of Napoleon I's first son. Carolyn Thorpe was sat in a pavement cafe when the huge tree fell onto her and her daughter. Ms Thorpe, age 62, was killed and her daughter Sarah Wright was injured. The family have now received around £86,000 . The 200-year-old ash tree was planted to celebrate the birth of Napoleon I's first son.

Baylee Almon should be gearing up for her first legal drink on Saturday. Probably at college, probably able to drive, she should be toasting the next phase of her life with her mother, stepfather, brother, sister and cousins at home in leafy Choctaw, Oklahoma. But no, she was one of 19 toddlers killed in a daycare center on April 19, 1995, in the worst case of homegrown terrorism America has ever seen, the day after her first birthday. The Oklahoma City bombing, planted by veteran US Army soldier Timothy McVeigh, killed 168 American people. One photograph encapsulated the terror: a firefighter emerging from the burning wreckage cradling the lifeless body of Baylee Almon. Her 23-year-old single mother saw the picture on the front page of the local paper the next day. A day later, it had swept the world. Two decades on, the shock is still raw. One photograph encapsulated the terror: a firefighter, Chris Fields, emerging from the burning wreckage cradling the lifeless body of Baylee Almon . 'It doesn't get easier': Aren Almon-Kok, pictured at the memorial for her daughter Baylee, who was killed in the Oklahoma City bombing of 1995 the day after her first birthday . Then a 23-year-old single mother, Aren saw the picture of her lifeless daughter on the front page of the local paper the next day. A day later it was on the cover of newspapers across the world . Painful: Aren said she learns to deal with the grief but the milestones get more difficult every year. Baylee (pictured) had just turned one when Aren dropped her off at a daycare center before going to work . Remembering: Aren and her family throw a party for Baylee on her birthday every year . Horrific: Aren describes how she searched for hours for Baylee until eventually, in St Anthony's Hospital, she was approached by a priest and a pediatrician who delivered the devastating news . 'It gets harder every year,' Aren Almon-Kok told DailyMail.com from her home on the outskirts of Oklahoma City, where she lives with her husband and two children. 'People say "it’ll get easier" or "you’ll find closure". I don’t think it does, and I don’t think I will. 'I had to see Baylee dead every day. No one should ever have to see that. 'You learn to deal with it differently, but every year the milestones are worse. ’Sixteen was hard. Twenty-one is the worst. Everything I missed, everything I didn’t get to be part of. I’m trying not to think about it.’ As the 20-year anniversary approaches, many still feel betrayed and bemused by the attackers, who branded themselves patriots. Unlike Dzokhar Tsarnaev and the 9/11 hijackers, Timothy McVeigh had fought for his country in the Gulf War. Parking a rented Ryder truck loaded with explosives outside the Alfred P Murrah building that morning was his way of attacking the 'tyrannical' federal government. He told a court he wanted revenge for the 76 lives lost in a fire at the Waco barracks in Texas, exactly two years earlier, when the FBI ham-handedly tried to expel intruders. He was executed in 2001, and his co-conspirator Terry Nichols, now 60, remains in jail serving 161 life sentences. Even before investigators identified the American perpetrators, the country was struggling to understand the concept of terrorism in Oklahoma City. When the building exploded at 9.01am, Mrs Almon-Kok thought it was construction work. But word soon reached her office, and she spent the next two hours scouring hospitals for her only child. Eventually, sitting in the crammed waiting room at St Anthony’s Hospital, she was approached by a pediatrician and a priest who delivered the news. She didn’t know aspiring photojournalist Charles Porter had captured the moment Baylee was carried from the building, her pink socks stained red from the shards of glass, in a picture that would go on to win a Pulitzer Prize. 'I was very young at the time, I was 23,' she said. 'My parents saw the picture on the paper the next morning and tried to hide it from me. I came downstairs looking for something to read and they said "we didn’t get any mail today". 'I knew that was ridiculous, we always got the paper. So I went looking around for it and, yes, as soon as I saw it I said, "that’s Baylee". The Oklahoma City bombing, planted by veteran US Army soldier Timothy McVeigh, killed 168 people . It was the worst case of homegrown terrorism America has ever seen, and shook the nation . Unlike Dzokhar Tsarnaev and the 9/11 hijackers, Timothy McVeigh had fought for his country in the Gulf War . Then-President Bill Clinton responded to the attack days later with one of his most famous speeches: 'The loss you feel must not paralyze your own lives.’ Then-First Lady Hillary Clinton holds her face in distress at the ceremony to remember the dead in 1995 . 'For some reason I thought I would know if my daughter was going to be on the front page. It was strange, it was horrible. 'Everybody else saw it as fiction - she wasn’t a person. They made money off it like she wasn’t real.' To the Almon-Kok family, she is very much still with them. Aren Almon met Army veteran Stanley Kok through a friend soon after the attack. They married in 1997, and together they have two children: Bella, 17, and Brooks, 13. Every year they throw a birthday party in Baylee’s honor, with a cake and a family meal. Bella and Brooks know they are two of three siblings. 'My husband has been really great, he has always been supportive of what I've been through and to him, Baylee is part of our life together. 'My kids have always known that they have a sister and that she went to heaven, so they expect us to celebrate her birthday like we do theirs. 'For them, the picture is painful too. 'Bella did a paper at school the other day about commercials and how they use images. One of the photographs they were given was that picture. 'She just dealt with it the best way she can. That’s her sister, she knows what happened. So to see that picture, that hurts.' Nonetheless, the family has been the subject of scrutiny, anger and at times hatred in the wake of the attacks. With her child the 'face' of the tragedy, other grieving families felt Aren Almon and the firefighter, Chris Fields, stole the limelight from their loved ones who paled into oblivion. During the barrage of media attention, the pair grew a bond, which remains today - and it was erroneously assumed they had become romantically involved. 'We do still see each other, Chris and his wife have been very supportive, they are such good people. But they won't be coming to the ceremony, they keep themselves out of that stuff. 'That whole thing was difficult, and just something else you have to learn how to deal with.' Consequently, Almon-Kok is apprehensive about this year’s 20-year anniversary ceremony. 'We don’t all have something in common just because we lost a child,' she explains. Tough: Aren has been the subject of scrutiny, anger and at times hatred in the wake of the attacks . Aren Almon met Army veteran Stanley Kok through a friend soon after the attack. They married in 1997, and together they have two children: Bella, 17, and Brooks, 13 . Difficulty for all of them: Aren said her children (pictured) know that they are two of three siblings . Other grieving families felt Aren Almon and the firefighter, Chris Fields, stole the limelight from their loved ones who paled into oblivion after the photograph received so much attention (pictured: the memorial) 'I know after the bombing the other families didn’t like me, and I’m not looking forward to that. 'I have just always tried to represent myself the best way possible because when Baylee’s looking down at me from heaven I want her to be proud of the things I have done. 'I didn’t want any of this, to see Baylee dead everywhere every day, but that’s just the way it happened.' Between the ages of 23 and 43, Almon-Kok, has dedicated herself to ensuring daycare centers are fully secure. Congressional bill number HR 4159, or 'Baylee’s Law', became law in 2000 to ensure a standard of glass protection in public buildings. McVeigh had enlisted his co-conspirators to build a car bomb that would shatter the windows of the building - a horrific detail that severely impacted the force of the explosion. It took weeks to find an attorney to represent Timothy McVeigh after he was coincidentally detained during a traffic stop 45 minutes after the attack. Eventually, Stephen Jones agreed to defend his actions ’to ensure he had a fair trial’. Speaking this week, Jones conceded: 'We all remember what we were doing. It is the Pearl Harbor Day of Oklahoma. 'This was a scar and never-ending wrong that affected not only Oklahoma City and the people there but the nation at large,' he told Tulsa Rotary. Then-President Bill Clinton responded to the attack days later with one of his most famous speeches: 'The loss you feel must not paralyze your own lives.’ Indeed, Oklahomans earned a reputation for compassion in the wake of the bombing - a sense of charity that came to be known as 'The Oklahoma Standard'. On Sunday, in a ceremony held at 9.01am at the site of the attack, Clinton and city officials will lead tributes to the city’s resilience, and read out the names of the 168 people who lost their lives. And the picture of Chris Fields holding Baylee will be shown. Though heart-wrenching for her, she says she is attempting to compartmentalize it. ’If I saw Baylee every time I looked at that photograph, I wouldn’t be able to get past that. I wouldn’t be able to carry on,’ she said. 'To me, basically, I try to see that picture as something which represents everybody who died in that bombing. It’s everybody’s baby.'

It is 20 years since the worst case of homegrown terrorism in US history . Timothy McVeigh killed 168 people with bomb in Oklahoma City in 1995 . Terror was encapsulated by photo of a firefighter carrying a lifeless baby . That baby was Baylee Almon, who had turned one the day before .

A lost iPhone was reunited with its owner after police posted a series of bizarre photos on the woman's Facebook page in a bid to track her down. The phone, which belonged to Bella Crooke from Melbourne, was handed in to Albury Police Station on the NSW-Victoria border on Sunday morning. Police officers on duty realised the phone was unlocked and used it to post selfies and photos of the phone in various locations around the police station on Bella's Facebook page. Officers from Albury Police Station on the NSW-Victoria border posted selfies on a woman's Facebook page saying she could come and collect her phone after it was handed in on Sunday morning . 'You should probably put a password on your phone,' a status post read alongside a selfie of a police officer. 'When you are ready to pick it up it will be at Albury police station.' Bella lost her phone at a friend's birthday party the night before and dialled her number as soon as she realised. 'A security guard picked up and said he'd leave it at the police station. I didn't get there until 1pm and had no idea what had been going on,' she told Daily Mail Australia. By the time Bella made it to the police station, the original post had already garnered a humorous response from her friends and officers. The phone belonged to Bella Crooke who lost it at a friend's birthday party on Saturday night . Police officers on duty realised the phone was unlocked and used it to post selfies and puns on the woman's Facebook page, including this photo of the phone in a holding 'cell' While waiting for Bella to collect her phone, police had used the time to post a picture of the handset in a holding cell and to reassure the owner that it was in safe hands. "If your worried about the battery going flat, don't. By the time you pick it up it will be fully 'charged',' the post read. 'It is a great 'cell' phone," another post read. A few hours later police added: 'The phone is still here. Ready to be released early for good behaviour. Just waiting on Bella to post bail.' Bella said she didn't even have to give her name when she eventually reclaimed her phone. The post was quickly shared by the woman's friends who labelled police 'legends' for their unusual approach to tracking down the phone's owner . Bella said she didn't even have to give her name when she eventually reclaimed her phone because officers recognised her from her Facebook page . 'They just recognised me. A few people popped their heads out and said 'Is that the girl with the phone?',' she said. 'They asked me I had seen Facebook, which I hadn't. I think they'd been waiting for me to come in all morning. 'He made me check it in front of me... to see my reaction. 'I couldn't stop laughing. The police were texting my friends back on my behalf with the same kind of humour.' Bella has since put a password on her phone. 'It's good humour and I'm just glad I got my phone back. Thank you to the boys in blue for returning the phone and having a good sense of humour.' A few hours later police confirmed the phone had not been claimed . Police even took to replying to text messages sent by friends asking if she had her phone back .

As composed and as comfortable as Manchester City were here at the Etihad, performances like this succeed only in highlighting the full extent of their failure this season. In Sergio Aguero they boast the joint leading scorer in the Barclays Premier League. Here against West Ham he scored his 20th of the campaign. And in David Silva and Jesus Navas, not to mention a seemingly revitalised Yaya Toure, they had players far too accomplished for the quality of this opposition. But such a dominant, determined display must leave the club’s owners wondering why on earth this was only their third win in nine games after a run of six defeats in their previous eight. Why, even when West Ham were as abject as they were until City lost Silva to serious injury, they have been unable to play with such confidence more frequently. Sergio Aguero slotted Manchester City into a two goal lead after a fine flowing counter attack by the home side against West Ham .

Presumably a victory that strengthens City’s position among the Champions League places, on a weekend when Manchester United lost, eases the pressure on Manuel Pellegrini. But there is sure to remain a fair amount of frustration in Abu Dhabi that the last few months have proved so problematic. By the end of this encounter the greater, more pressing, concern was for the welfare of Silva. Injured from what both managers agreed was an accidental elbow in the face from Cheikhou Kouyate midway through the second half, the Spanish international required oxygen before leaving the pitch on a stretcher after eight minutes of treatment. He was then taken to hospital. But other problems nevertheless remain for City’s manager Pellegrini when he had to wake to headlines being generated by the notoriously vocal agent of Toure, who reportedly accused the Chilean of being ‘a weak manager’ as well as criticising other prominent members of the club hierarchy, too. Pellegrini was asked to respond but declined to comment. With managers such as Jurgen Klopp now available for hire, these stories are poorly timed for Pellegrini. But he can at least take comfort in the way his team responded to that crushing defeat at Old Trafford the previous weekend. ‘After two defeats in a row it was a very important win,’ added Pellegrini.

With another match here at home coming next, against Aston Villa, City’s manager is sure to be encouraged by the form of Aguero. Until Sunday he had failed to score a Premier League goal from open play at the Etihad since November 2. But the goal he scored in this contest was neatly taken; much more like the striker City’s subdued supporters have grown to admire. He thrived on the possession City were enjoying — 75 per cent for the first 15 minutes — and joined Silva and Alek-sandar Kolarov in threatening West Ham’s goal early on. City’s opening goal, scored after 18 minutes, was an absolute horror for West Ham. First came Aaron Cresswell’s failure to win an aerial contest with the diminutive Navas, and then a spectacular own goal from James Collins.

In trying to intercept a cross from Navas, the West Ham centre half succeeded only in scoring with a sliced volley, the ball spinning off his boot and over the head of Adrian before flying home via the underside of the crossbar. If it was a little unfortunate for the visitors it remained a product of the pressure City were exerting. A West Ham side probably unsettled by the uncertainty surrounding their own manager offered little in return. Carlton Cole almost seized on a mistake from Martin Demichelis only for Joe Hart to block his shot, while City’s goalkeeper then marked his 28th birthday by denying Enner Valencia.

The control nevertheless remained with City, a second goal arriving in the 36th minute after Toure had regained possession from Stewart Downing. A rapidly executed counter-attack followed, with Aguero and Navas combining impressively before Aguero slotted home his 101st Manchester City goal. In the dug-out Sam Allardyce appeared thoroughly hacked off, and understandably so given the ineptitude of his defenders and his side’s lack of ambition going forward. He responded at the start of the second half by pushing Valencia into a more attacking role alongside Cole. But it was City who continued to press, with Adrian doing well to deny Aguero a second. The injury to Silva — earning Kouyate a yellow card despite the fact that it really didn’t look intentional — disrupted City’s rhythm and gave West Ham a little encouragement. Downing went close, as did Valencia. But to no avail. For once Pellegrini had reason to feel a touch more secure.

This is the incredible moment a tiger was sent crashing to the floor after mistiming an attack on a fleet-footed bird. The ferocious feline was chasing what was sure to be dinner when it slipped on the icy surface and lost its footing. As the tiger raced towards the bird, it flew directly upwards forcing the mammal to try and stop dead in its tracks. Oops-a-daisy! This tiger lots its footing in spectacular style while trying to catch a chicken at a zoo in China . On the attack: At first all was well, with the tiger homing straight in on an airborne feathery meal . Target: As the bird flew upwards the tiger began to rear up, ready to grab its prey from the air . Fail: The tiger began to slip as the bird flew higher and higher in a blind panic - and it was all caught on camera by photographer Libby Zhang . Hang time: The slip caused the tiger to flip right onto its back, with the bird now well out of reach . But momentum caused its feet to slide away from underneath and go skidding along the slippery ground. The hilarious moment took place at the Hengdaohezi Siberian Tiger Park in Northeast China and was captured by photographer Libby Zhang. Libby, from Houston in Texas, was visiting the park and photographing the tigers' feeding session. Love your tiger feet: The hilarious moment took place at the Hengdaohezi Siberian Tiger Park in Northeast China . Roaringly funny: The photographer said that a watching crowd burst out laughing when the tiger fell over . She said: 'The crowd burst out in a roar of laughter - it was during feeding time and several chickens were tossed at the tigers. 'One tiger tried to reach it but he lost his balance on the slippery icy and fell backwards. 'I was surprised to see the tiger slip and raised my camera in a hurry with rapid fires on the trigger. 'I wanted to capture the beauty and power of tigers in the same image, but this tiger slip series was a total surprise and added bonus for my trip.'

Hector Bellerin is fast becoming seen by fans, and possibly even by his manager, as Arsenal's premier right back, after impressing in the absence of Mathieu Debuchy. The young Spaniard scored his second Premier League goal, cutting inside and curling left-footed past Simon Mignolet, in the 4-1 win over Liverpool last weekend, and is developing a reputation as a player capable of becoming a top-level full back. But, it seems, in the dressing room, it is his status as the club's premier sprinter, rather than as a defender, that is most in question, after he beat Theo Walcott's 40 metre club sprint record last summer. Hector Bellerin scored a brilliant goal to put Arsenal ahead against Liverpool last weekend at the Emirates . Bellerin has emerged as a star player after filling in for the injured Mathieu Debuchy at right back this season . 'We were just having a test and then they told me I was the fastest at the club,' Bellerin told The Telegraph. 'I did not beat it by that much. There was a bit of banter and he is trying to beat me now.' Bellerin shaved a hundredth of a second off Walcott's time, prompting the 26-year-old winger to vow to reclaim his title at the end of the season. And since then he has gone on to establish himself as a right-back of some promise, progressing well beyond Arsene Wenger's expectations. 'I am happy that now, after not so good performances in the beginning, the coach has still put confidence in me and given me minutes. Bellerin has exceptional pace, as he proved in August when he set a new Arsenal record over 40 metres . Theo Walcott had previously held the record, but Bellerin shaved one hundredth of a second off his time . But Walcott is determined to take his record back from Bellerin this summer and be speed king again . 'The chances always come through injuries, which is not a nice thing. Now we are going to have Debuchy back and I am happy for him, but when you get your chance, you need to do the best you can. I have done my best to take this opportunity.' With Debuchy on the verge of match fitness, Bellerin will soon find out whether he has done enough to grab that opportunity. But after his brilliant goal at the Emirates stadium last weekend, one thing is for certain - he is no longer known just for being quick over 40 metres.

The family of a Georgia toddler left mangled after SWAT police tossed a flash-bang grenade into his crib last spring have received a settlement of nearly $1 million. Bounkham 'Bou Bou' Phonesavanh suffered serious burns to his face and had his nipple blown off in the May incident. His family says the medical bills have surpassed $1 million. While the settlement isn't enough to cover the continued medical care Bou Bou will require as he gets older, BuzzFeed reports that the family's settlement does not preclude continued litigation. The Phonesavanh family came to the settlement with Habersham County, Georgia late last month and announced it this week. Settled: The family of 'Bou Bou' Phonesavanh has settled with a Georgia County after he was maimed and nearly killed when SWAT police erroneously stormed the home where they were living and tossed a flash-bang grenade into his crib. He's seen here following some 10 surgeries . Prior to the boy's 10th surgery this year, his mother told BuzzFeed surgeons would be trying to 'scrape away the gunpowder.' He'll require surgeries ever other year into his teens . The $964,000 breaks down as follows: . $538,000 to Bou Bou's parents, Alecia and Bounkham Phonesavanh, for his medical expenses. $200,000 will be set aside 'for future periodic payments of damages,' which will be paid to Bou Bou after he reaches 18. $137,000 to Bou Bou's father for his personal injuries. $62,000 to Bou Bou's mother for suffering and emotional distress as a result of witnessing the baby's maiming. $9,000 to each of Bou Bou's three siblings, Emma, Malee, and Bounly. Prior to the boy's 10th surgery this year, his mother told BuzzFeed surgeons would be trying to 'scrape away the gunpowder.' 'His nerve endings are dead around his mouth and chest, so they will not be able to properly develop as they are supposed to, so they will have to go in and do stretching and grafts,' she said. Horrible error: The incident occurred while Bou Bou's mom Alecia Phonesavanh was staying with her husband, their three daughters and their baby son in the living room of her sister-in-law's home just outside of Atlanta .

They were living with relatives after their Wisconsin home burned down earlier that year. The Habersham SWAT team executed a no-knock warrant on the property while searching for a relative they believed was a drug dealer and had a cache of weapons inside, The Atlanta-Journal Constitution reported. The suspect, a relative of the child, was not in the house during the raid but was later arrested nearby at a home where police knocked on the door. He surrendered without incident.

A Celtic treble is gone, but the recriminations, anger and sense of injustice will linger and fester for some time to come. Cup defeats to Inverness are rarely a tranquil affair. On a fateful night in Glasgow 15 years ago the Highlanders inflicted the first of their damaging, deeply defeats on Scotland's champions. They've made a habit of it down the years. Yet in a re-enactment of the night Caley went ballistic their players celebrated David Raven's late, extra-time strike by sliding joyously on their fronts before a small, delirious support. David Raven (second right) celebrates with his Inverness team-mates following his extra-time winner . The celebrations continue on the pitch as Inverness rejoice in reaching the William Hill Scottish Cup final . They will be back here in greater number for this club's first ever Scottish Cup final against Falkirk – a former club of manager John Hughes - on May 30 where they will be favourites to triumph. 'That doesn't sit nice with me,' said Hughes afterwards. 'I love to be underdogs. I love to create a siege mentality.' This dogged, energetic Inverness side – driven on by their man of the match captain Graeme Shinnie – perform better as underdogs. Yet who can dispute they now have an outstanding chance of winning their first major trophy, a mere 21 years since the acrimonious amalgamation which led to their entry to the senior ranks? Before then comes weeks of uproar. Days of Celtic anger, finger jabbing and injustice over the standard of officiating here. Not, it must be said, without justification. The standard of Scottish refereeing remains an ongoing embarrassment. Supporters of other clubs believe Celtic have had their share of favourable decisions down the years. If that's true this was a pretty savage slice of karma. Virgil Van Dijk (centre) fired Celtic into an early lead with a superb free-kick in the 18th minute . A goal to the good via Virgil van Dijk's superb 16th minute free-kick the Parkhead side were denied a clear penalty kick – followed by an Inverness red card for Josh Meekings - before half-time. Celtic's Stefan Johansen was deftly played through on goal, his shot parried across goal the face of goal by Inverness keeper Ryan Esson, where Leigh Griffiths seemed certain to score with a swooping header. The hand of Meekings blocked the ball, yet additional assistant referee Alan Muir - standing five yards away – failed to see it through the bodies in his way. With Meekings off and a chance to make it 2-0 from 12 yards this could easily have been the Celtic walkover people expected. Where Inverness are concerned, we should all know better. Four times in the last 15 years they have denied their more feted opponents big victories in league and cups at a critical juncture. Greg Tansey shoots past replacement goalkeeper Lukasz Zaluska to equalise for Inverness . And the turning point for this latest triumph came in 53 minutes. In a bitter, unpalatable irony for Celtic supporters it came from a penalty. And a red card for their keeper Craig Gordon after he upended Marley Watkins as he outstripped Adam Matthews and hared in behind the Celtic defence. The decision to dismiss the Celtic keeper was correct. That the officials had gone this one right – while making such a hash of the first half equivalent – was of no consolation to Celtic's players and management at time up. Ronny Deila began a slow, menacing trudge towards the other side of the pitch to confront referee MacLean and his officials. His captain Scott Brown, making his a little too forcibly, had been dragged away seconds earlier. 'I didn't say so much,' said the Norwegian. 'I just asked if he knew what he had done. That's it. He didn't know. He hadn't seen it.' Virgil van Dijk's post match protestations were strong enough to earn a booking. Edward O'Fere gave Inverness the lead in the 96th minute despite the attention of Van Dijk . 'Everybody of course gets angry,' added Deila. 'But that's why football is interesting, it's a tough world, that's why it's so hard to get the treble. It's small details that can make you fail and today it was a small detail that made it hard for us.' To say so, however, is to overlook a rather large obstacle in Celtic's way; Inverness. For Lukasz Zaluska, Craig Gordon's deputy, the task of keeping Greg Tansey's penalty out with his first touch was a tall order. James Forrest had also been sacrificed in a tactical manoeuvre and suddenly Inverness, with their one man advantage, had the legs and the running. On a diet of three games a week the champions elect looked tired and leggy, their bench options limited. With Forrest gone they were neutered. Who could have predicted that when they began the game with purpose and intent? Nir Bitton smashed a first time right foot shot off the junction of post and bar in 12 minutes. Four minutes later they took the lead with a superb strike from van Dijk. John Guidetti levels matters in the 116th minute with a well-taken free-kick . Inverness defender Gary Warren was booked for a crude - if vital - foul on Forrest on the edge of the box as the Celtic winger threatened to use his pace to rampage the Inverness support. Van Dijk took the free kick, curling a magnificent right foot effort into the top left hand corner of off the inside of the post. On league duty last week Inverness had recovered from the loss of an early goal and so it was here. In last season's League Cup Final defeat to Aberdeen in Glasgow the team in blue stood accused of being dour and unadventurous. The same couldn't be said here. Whatever the Celtic injustices, they can hardly deny their opponents played to devastating effect on the break. They should have been out of the game by half-time. Celtic had the chances. Yet their captain Graeme Shinnie had an outstanding game, proving the man of the match. When the highlanders equalised they were the stronger sharper team. A weary Celtic clung on slightly for extra-time. And in 95 minutes it seemed they were broken when Shinnie's cross from the left touchline ricocheted off the knee of Marley Watkins into the path of striker Edward Ofere. The Nigerian, who had blown a golden opportunity to level in the first half, guided his shot low and true past the outstretched left hand of Zaluska. Craig Gordon might have made the save. In every sense Celtic looked weak and vulnerable now. They weren't out of it completely. Not yet. Celtic players stand dejected on the pitch following their 3-2 loss . In a personal disaster for Inverness stand-in keeper Ryan Esson – who had enjoyed a fine game beforehand – allowed a swirling John Guidetti free-kick to bounce over his outstretch hands and into the net for 2-2 12 minutes into extra-time. Inverness could – should have had a second penalty when the unconvincing Zaluska clattered his fists into the back of Ofere in 108 minutes. But they wouldn't be denied. With four minutes of extra-time to play. David Raven, castigated by his manager before extra-time, slammed the ball into the net from an acute angle after more outstanding work by Shinnie, driving into the area and hammering the ball across the face of goal. 'Coming into extra time he was sitting down,' said Hughes in some disgust afterwards. 'I grabbed him by the scruff of the neck and told him to stand up because sitting down is, for me, a sign of weakness in those circumstances.' Such was the Inverness strength that Celtic were done. They were gone. Their upporters drifted away silently, but in the days to come they will have plenty to say. And for Scotland's referees there will be no avoiding the din.

Raheem Sterling has prompted new concerns over smoking after fresh pictures emerged of him holding a shisha pipe – this time joined by his teenage Liverpool team-mate Jordon Ibe. The pictures, believed to have been taken in a London bar earlier this season, show the young stars sat together and both are holding shisha pipes. Casually dressed, the pair are sat on a sofa in front of a table with shisha pipes, cans of fizzy Fanta orange and a portable music speaker. Sterling, who is considering his future at Liverpool, and Ibe are considered as the two brightest stars to emerge at the club as they battle to stay among the Barclays Premier League pacesetters. Liverpool players Raheem Sterling and Jordon Ibe have been pictured smoking a shisha pipe . This is the second time Sterling has been pictured smoking from a shisha pipe in the past few days . The pictures will heap further embarrassment on Liverpool after other recent revelations involving Sterling . Sterling on his feet holding a shisha pipe . Sterling, 20, is battling controversy after the first picture, revealed on Sunday, showed him smoking a shisha pipe. A video then emerged showing him passing out after inhaling nitrous oxide – otherwise known as ‘laughing gas’ or ‘hippy crack’. The England international has been the subject of a club probe into why he was taking the legal high. But the sight of 19-year-old starlet Ibe, who has made his breakthrough into the Liverpool first team this season, will cause even more concern with club officials, who have declined to comment on the latest pictures. Sterling's representative also refused to comment. Ibe, wearing a red hoodie and ripped black jeans, is pictured holding a shisha pipe. He is sitting next to Sterling, who is wearing a tight white v-neck t-shirt and blue jeans, on the sofa. The pair can be seen smiling and joking as they hold on to the pipes in the bar. Liverpool will be anxious that Sterling does not further damage his public image after a tempestuous period, in which he has become involved in a contract stand-off with the club. He was heckled at the launch of the club’s new kit last week, while a pocket of supporters chanted ‘Raheem Sterling, your agent’s a c***’ during the 2-0 win over Newcastle on Monday night, in which Sterling scored the opening goal. Sterling has turned down a deal worth around £100,000 per week and does not want to resume negotiations until the end of the season. He infuriated Liverpool when he gave an interview to the BBC — without permission — to talk about his contract stand-off and why he did not want to be perceived as a ‘greedy 20-year-old’. Asked on Monday if he will be reminding Sterling of his responsibilities, Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers said: ‘I will do. He’s a young kid who has been in the spotlight now so he knows the demands of being a top class professional — it’s not just on the field it’s off the field, but I will speak with him on it and we’ll move on.’ The players, wearing casual clothing, inhale from the lit shisha pipe (bottom right) It appears that the two players have a shisha pipe apiece and are also drinking Fanta . Shisha is a water pipe in which flavoured tobacco is roasted with charcoal. The tobacco smoke passes through a water chamber and is inhaled deeply and slowly. The flavoured tobacco smells sweet, making it an enjoyable and relaxing experience, according to enthusiasts. Despite the smoke passing through water, all the risks of smoking a regular cigarette are present – including respiratory and heart diseases, as well as cancer. During an hour-long Shisha smoking session, it has been estimated the smoke inhaled is the equivalent of between 100 and 200 cigarettes. Ibe is seen as a potential star at Anfield after he announced his talent with a sensational display in February’s Merseyside derby draw at Everton. He had spent the past six weeks on the sidelines with a knee injury but returned to the starting line-up during Monday's 2-0 win over Newcastle. The injury has delayed him signing a new contract with the club, although that is expected to be a formality. Shisha pipes are used to smoke fruit-flavoured tobacco, which is burned on hot coals, through a long tube. They are commonly used in the Middle East. It is said that one single shisha session is equal to smoking around 200 cigarettes, which calls into question the professionalism of any athlete using the pipe. The British Heart Foundation website it clearly states: ‘Like cigarettes [shisha] contains nicotine, tar, carbon monoxide and heavy metals, such as arsenic and lead.' Sterling, who has 14 caps for England, was pictured on a social media site with the picture captioned ‘1 down 3 to go’, suggesting he did not just take a single drag on the pipe. In February, Arsenal and England midfielder Jack Wilshere faced criticism after he was pictured with a shisha pipe on a night out while recovering from ankle surgery. But the Arsenal star, who has previously been pictured smoking cigarettes, was defended by England manager Roy Hodgson who said he'd tried the Middle Eastern pipe himself and did not think it was a problem. Sterling was pictured on social media whilst smoking a shisha pipe in a story published over the weekend . Sterling was also filmed apparently inhaling nitrous oxide - known as 'hippy crack' Sterling celebrates after scoring Liverpool's opening goal in Monday night's 2-0 win over Newcastle United . Sterling celebrates with Ibe after scoring in Monday night's Premier League match at Anfield . In the video footage, Sterling is seen sucking on an orange balloon then laughing and giggling before he asks one of his friends to give him another hit. When the camera pans back to the 20-year-old, he is either unconscious or has fallen asleep. It is claimed that the video, obtained by The Sun, was taken at his home in Southport in the days before a game. Sportsmail contacted Sterling’s agent, Aidy Ward, on Monday night. He refused to comment on the story but did not deny that it was his client. Sportsmail columnist and former Liverpool captain Jamie Carragher said: ‘In years to come he’ll look back over this period now as a massive learning curve. When you’re a 20-year-old kid, you make mistakes. I did, I’m sure we all do. It’s just important that he learns from it because Raheem Sterling needs to be on the back pages, not the front pages and that’s a problem for him in these last few months.’ Ibe pictured during Monday night's win over Newcastle, which kept Liverpool in the top four chase . Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers was due to speak to Sterling to remind him of his responsibilities . Players' union chief Bobby Barnes called for understanding after Sterling 'made a mistake'. He said: 'Nobody would condone the use of these types of substances whether legal or otherwise as footballers are seen as role models. It does send a message to young people that if it's good enough for footballers then it's good enough for them and that is not desirable. 'But you have to bear in mind that we ask an awful lot of young players growing up in the public eye. Many of us look back at things we have done in our teens and early 20s and wish we hadn't done them. 'He's made a mistake and people are human. I am sure this will be a minor blip on his path to a fantastic career.’ Nitrous oxide starves the brain of oxygen and makes users feel light-headed and dizzy. It has been nicknamed ‘laughing gas’ due to the euphoric and relaxed feeling people who inhale it can sometimes feel. Official figures show 460,000 16-24 year-olds took it last year. It has been the cause of 17 deaths since 2006. Tottenham defender Kyle Walker was pictured inhaling a balloon in 2013, while last year Saido Berahino was pictured doing it at the wheel of his Range Rover.

Incredible footage has emerged of a mysterious pair of white lights seen hovering perilously close to to the Chilean volcano eruption. Volcano Calbuco, which has laid dormant for more than 40 years, suddenly erupted on Wednesday causing a thick plume of ash to cloud the sky while thousands of people living in its shadow were forced to flee the 'apocalypse-like' event. Hundreds filmed the eruption, near the southern port city of Puerto Montt, Chile, and its deadly ash cloud which caused all nearby flights to be grounded for safety. But one amateur cameraman was surprised to see what appeared to be white lights close to the enormous plume of ash and smoke rising from the mouth of the volcano. Scroll down for video . Mysterious white lights have been spotted hovering near Chile's erupting Calbuco volcano on Wednesday . A pair of strange glowing white lights were filmed floating perilously close to the smoke and gas clouds from the eruption . The pictures have since gone viral with internet user suggesting the lights were either police helicopters, an optical illusion or an alien aircraft . The footage shows the unexplained pair of lights floating dangerous close to erupting volcano before disappearing. Tens of thousands of people have speculated on what the UFO could be, suggesting everything from police or emergence services helicopters, to a kind of optical illusion or even an alien craft. One YouTube user, Perkoff, believed it was time travelers. He wrote: 'Most UFOs are not aliens like a lot of people think. They are in fact time machines from the future. The reason you see so many UFOs at historic events is because people from the future want to come back in time and witness history. A lot of these UFOs are filled with students and are just going on a futuristic version of a field trip.' Bud Ekins wrote: 'It wants to be filmed! Drones and planes don't disappear like that.' Others argues it was something a little more mundane. One YouTube user wrote: 'For me, chances are it's a drone.' While Francisco Javier Segurasaid: 'It's a airplane, come on! Up in smoke: Volcano Calbuco, in southern Chile, has erupted forcing 1,500 residents from Ensenada, about 10 miles away, to flee their homes (pictured, a view of the eruption from Puerto Montt, a small city around 20 miles from the volcano) Smoke and lava can be seen spewing from the Calbuco volcano in this picture taken from the shores of Lake Llanquihue in Puerto Varas . An electrical storm lights up the night sky as a huge column of ash and lava shoots out of the volcano. The eruption sparked a red alert in the port city of Puerto Montt . Volcano Calbuco, believed to be among the three most dangerous of Chile's 90 active volcanoes, had erupted for the first time at 6pm local time on Wednesday. An estimated 1,500 people were forced to flee the nearby town of Ensenada after the eruption, while several smaller townships were also cleared. Experts said the main risk was now now of a pyroclastic flow - a superheated current of gas and rock that can destroy nearly everything in its path and travel at speeds upwards of 200 to 300 kilometers per hour. Gabriel Orozco, a vulcanologist with Chile’s geological and mining service, said: “In this situation, with the eruption column so high, the main risk is that it collapses, falls due to gravity because of its own weight and causes a pyroclastic flow,” . Locals described an apocalyptic scene as ash clouds were shot six miles into the air creating an incredible display of lightning and lava against the night's sky. Another unexpected eruption in the Los Lagos Region yesterday heightened fears of local waters becoming contaminated, residents developing severe breathing problems and more flights being grounded. The ash covered cars and houses in cities as far as 18 miles away from the source of the eruption as another massive evacuation effort gets underway. Previous and equally violent eruptions at Calbuco have continued for up to a week, according to a volcanologist from Oxford University who told MailOnline it is impossible to predict what will happen next. The volcano is located near the tourist town of Puerto Varas and the city of Puerto Montt, a little more than 620 miles south of Chile's capital, Santiago. The National Mining and Geology Service issued a high alert, setting up an exclusion zone of 12.5miles around the volcano, barring access to the area. Trevor Moffat, who lives in Ensenada, some six miles from the volcano, said the eruption happened without warning. Volcano Calbuco's last major eruption happened in 1961, with a weak eruption following in 1972. He said: 'It sounded like a big tractor trailer passing by the road, rattling and shaking, guttural rumbling ... we left everything there, grabbed my kid, my dog, got in the car with my wife. Mr Moffat, who was originally born in Canada, said he was now driving his family to Puerto Varas. He added: 'All the neighbors were outside, a lot of young people crying. Armageddon type reaction.' Dusted: A car covered in ash at the Ensenada locality, on the outskirts of Calbuco volcano . Ghost town: Most people have abandoned the La Ensenada locality in Puerto Varas (pictured) which has been caked in ash despite being over 18 miles away from the massive eruption at Calbuco volcano . Boats dusted with volcanic ash deposited from the eruptions of the looming Calbuco volcano, background, sit parked in front of a home . Television pictures showed a spectacular mushroom-shaped column billowing into the sky with occasional lighting bolts shooting through it. The eruption was seen up to 100 miles away in neighbouring Argentina. Derek Way, a resident of Puerto Varas, said: 'There are a lot of people out in the streets, many heading to the gas stations to fill up on gas. A friend told me to fill everything we have with water.' Chile, on the Pacific 'Rim of Fire', has the second largest chain of volcanoes in the world after Indonesia, including around 500 that are potentially active. In March, volcano Villarrica, also in southern Chile, erupted in spectacular fashion, sending a plume of ash and lava high into the sky, but quickly subsided. Volcanoes occur at the edges of tectonic plates which make up the earth's crust, either where these plates are moving toward or away from one another. Eruptions occur when magma from the Earth's core forces its way to the surface, exploding through weak points in the crust. Unexpected: The volcano last erupted in 1972, and while it is widely believed to be among Chile's most dangerous, it was not under observation before it erupted today (the eruption pictured from Puerto Varas) Explosion: Residents in nearby Puerto Varas go about their business while in the background the ash cloud from Volcano Calbuco is seen . Green fields: The scene looked calm away from the fall out from the ash, but southern Chile remains on alert .

Calbuco volcano in southern Chile - which has been dormant for 40 years - erupted without warning on Wednesday . A second terrifying eruption yesterday has now forced over 4,000 to flee in aftermath of the 'apocalypse-like' event . Footage of the eruption has revealed a strange pair of white lights floating perilously close to the ash cloud .

Toxicology results released Monday show Linden, New Jersey police officer Pedro Abad (pictured) had three times the legal limit of alcohol in his system when he crashed his car last month . Toxicology results show that an off-duty New Jersey officer was drunk when he caused a wrong-way crash that killed another officer and a friend on a New York City highway, a Staten Island prosecutor said Monday. Tests show Linden Officer Pedro Abad's blood alcohol content was 0.24; the legal limit in New York is 0.08. Chief Assistant District Attorney Daniel Master wouldn't comment on possible charges against the officer stemming from the March 20 crash. Linden Officer Frank Viggiano and friend Joe Rodriguez were killed; Abad and Officer Patrik Kudlac were critically injured. Authorities say Abad crashed head-on into a tractor-trailer after leaving a Staten Island strip club. The truck driver suffered injuries that weren't considered life-threatening. There was no immediate response to an email seeking comment from the union representing Linden police officers. Investigators had applied for a warrant to test Abad's blood shortly after the accident. Hours before the crash, Abad had posted a photo on his Instagram page of three shot glasses filled with what he identified as 'Jack Daniels Fire on the house.' The photo included a caption of a toast he said he had given. Abad and fellow officer Patrik Kudlac were critically injured in the crash while another cop Frank Viggiano and friend Joe Rodriguez died . The driver of the tractor-trailer was also injured but his injuries were not thought to be life threatening . VictimsL Above, officer Viggiano (left) and Rodriguez (right), the two men who were killed in the crash . 'The 3 of us, are decent people. There's a decent woman out there for each of us. Sure it's cool to be single every now and then, but I don't give a damn what ANYONE says. At the end of the day, I want a family. I want to settle down. We all do. So here's to finding that which we all hope for.' Abad had two drunken-driving arrests in the last four years, including one for an accident in which he plowed through the wall of a convenience store, records show. He was arrested on a charge of driving under the influence in Roselle, New Jersey, in January 2011 after his car 'put a hole completely through the building' housing a New Way Supermarket, a police report said. Abad was issued a summons for DUI and reckless driving, but apparently the case didn't conclude in any citations or violations, the state Motor Vehicle Commission said. Abad (left) posted a photo of three whiskey shots (right) to his Instagram just hours before the deadly crash . The crash occurred after the three off-duty New Jersey cops and their friend left this Staten Island strip club . Thirteen months later, Abad was charged with DUI in Rahway, New Jersey. A police dashboard camera video showed him weaving, wobbling and slurring his words as he attempted to complete a field sobriety test. Abad's driver's license was suspended after the second arrest, beginning in October 2013 and concluding in May 2014, the Motor Vehicle Commission said. A judge then required Abad to fit his car with an ignition interlock, which won't allow a vehicle to start until the driver blows into a device to measure his blood-alcohol level and is deemed sober. The interlock device was removed last September, the commission said. Abad Jr. (left) had eight accidents and two DUIs on his record before the Staten Island crash. On the right, Patrik Kudlac, the other officer who was injured in the crash .

Pedro Abad was driving with two fellow Linden, New Jersey police officers and a friend on March 20 when he crashed head-on with a tractor-trailer . Toxicology tests revealed Monday show Abad had a .24 blood-alcohol content - three times the legal limit .

These adorable abandoned badger cubs have been nursed back to health by a kind-hearted animal lover on a diet of custard creams. The orphaned youngsters - one of which escaped death after being carried away in a Jack Russell's mouth - are doing better than ever after they were taken in by retired farmer Pauline Kidner. Nursed originally on milk form bottles custard creams were introduced into their diet slowly to see whether the cubs were ready for food. Scroll down for video . The orphaned youngsters - one of which escaped death after being carried by a dog - are doing better . Nursed originally on milk, custard creams were introduced to see whether the cubs were ready for food . 'They were very very tiny, we start them off giving them milk with a teat on syringe,' Pauline said . The first of the badger cubs, named Little Star, was half the weight of an apple when it arrived at the Secret World centre, but Pauline, who runs charity Secret World, says they're growing at an astonishing rate. The 65-year-old, from Somerset, said: 'When they came in eight weeks ago they were 80g, now they're 1.1kg, you can almost see them growing.' 'They were very very tiny, we start them off giving them milk with a teat on syringe, we can't risk any getting in their lungs, but they're now on normal bottles. 'Little Star came from Derbyshire, she was brought into someone's kitchen by their Jack Russell dog, it was very lucky he didn't hurt her, she'd been born two days earlier; her umbilical was still attached . 'The dog brought another one in, but sadly that one had been shaken, so unfortunately it died within 24 hours . Pauline explained to have two badger cubs picked up by dogs in a short space of time is unusual. 'One cub a year is brought in when dogs get down in the set,' she said. The dog brought another one in, but sadly that one had been shaken, so it died within 24 hours . The first of the badger cubs, named Little Star, was half the weight of an apple when it arrived at centre . Jack Russels have an instinct for digging and going down holes and are traditionally used in badger baiting. However, there is no reason to suspect the illegal blood-sport was to blame for the death of this cub. 'Then we had another called Vogue come up from Cornwall, we called her that because was picked up in the village Vogue near Redruth,' Pauline said. 'Then lastly the third came in three weeks ago, that one's from near Cheddar in Somerset, we called him Scrumpy, because of the cider context . When they came in eight weeks ago they were 80g - carers have watched them grow to 1.1kg . They're 12 to 16 weeks once they wean, then they might be moved on to solids by the carers . 'We've been keeping Scrumpy separate as he's older than the two girls. Once they start to mouth things, they start playing with each other, pulling ears, Scrumpy can get a bit rough though.' 'They're still on bottles now, we've started putting in custard creams to see if they're interested, then we might move them on to solids. 'They're in the cubby hole in my kitchen now.' The aim is to release the animals back into the wild once they're strong enough. They're all vaccinated against Bovine TB, before they reduce human contact. Pauline said: 'We'll add another two to the group, we'll keep them together before release in autumn. 'When they're 12 to 16 weeks once they wean, they go down to the Millie Block, which is a separate building. 'After that they turn nocturnal, we feed them at night, then it's on to glassed enclosures when we just throw the food over to them and get them to revert to wild.' 'Sadly if we can't release them, we do have to put them to sleep, which is why we reduce human contact like that.' After they move to their nocturnal sleep rhythm they will be put in glass enclosures and then released .

You would think that all water is created equal, but a raft of new 'enhanced' H20 products shows that things in the water business are changing, and fast. We're no longer happy posing with Perrier, Fiji or Evian branded bottles. Nowadays those in the know are downing bottles of birch, made from the sap of silver birch trees, sipping on glasses of liquid extracted from artichokes or opting for specially harvested and filtered rainwater. Drink up! Forget tap water, we're now being sold a raft of infused and health-boosting H20s . Sweet tasting birch water contains saponins which can help your body absorb less fat . So what makes one type of water better than another? Nutritional Therapist Lorna Driver-Davies explains the health benefits of these new super saps. Artichoke water . According to ARTY, which produces this drink, the water is extracted from Californian artichokes, a plant rich in health-boosting silymarin and cynarin. The water is said to contain minerals including iron, potassium, vitamin C and magnesium. Flavoured with spearmint and apple, the 30-calories per bottle water is sweetened with agave and fruit. Price: £43.55 for a case of 24 235ml-bottles  of ARTY. Expert comment: 'The company doesn't explain their special extraction process so its hard to comment. It seems fairly natural and artichokes are nutritious but I would advise eating them. 'You can also make a broth drink from the left over water are cooking artichokes. 'Perhaps the extraction method doesn't use heat as this might help to keep the nutrients intact. It might be good to drink occasionally but I am sure the potency would be like a medical tincture of powder capsule. 'Personally we should try to reduce our intake of naturally sweetened products as many of us consume far too much sugar and fruit sugar and this product adds fruit juice and agave. Eating whole fruit is more nutritious.' ARTY artichoke water is said to contain minerals including iron, potassium, vitamin C and magnesium . Birch water . Made from the sap of silver birch trees, birch water is meant to be rich in nutrients and contain vitamins A and B. The sweet tasting water, which comes in at 18 calories per 100ml, also contains saponins,which can help your body absorb less fat. Price: Nordic Koivu, £8.99 for 500ml; Sibberi, £3.30 per 300ml . Expert comment: 'Birch water is a very old tradition and I would perhaps recommend it if you liked the taste and wanted nutrient rich water, but I would not go as far to say that it might be cellulite-busting or other health claims. 'Silver birch is used in herbal medicine and it has good health benefits as a natural diuretic or for lymphatic health, but this is likely to be a more concentrated tincture made from bark, leaf and resin.' Cactus water . This contains extract of prickly pear cactus, a plant with levels minerals which can aid the digestive system. It also is high in electrolytes and as a bonus, has betalains, an antioxidant which could help reduce hangover symptoms. Just remember to drink it before you consume alcohol. Price: £49 for a  pack of 12 500ml bottles of True Nopal . Expert comment: 'I am a fan of pure coconut water and certainly notice the difference in my energy and mood if I drink it before a workout or if I am feeling tired I do find it reviving. 'Therefore anything with a good amount of electrolytes seems promising; however I would want to know if its 100 per cent cactus water.' Prickly pear cactus (left)  which contains electrolytes, is the star in cactus water (right) Charcoal water . The Japanese have used Binchotan active charcoal as a water purifier since the 17th century. The charcoal reduces reduces chlorine, mineralises the water and balances the pH. The stick of charcoal can be used for up to six months. Price: £14.95 for a Black + Blum Charcoal Filter water bottle . Expert comment: ''This just appears to be a portable filter, almost a mobile version of a Britta filter. I would imagine this just takes some of the hardness out of tap water release minerals such as calcium, iron and magnesium back into the water. 'I think this is one of the best options as its very cost effective and eco-friendly. I would actually want to try something like this myself considering home filters that remineralise the water are often much more expensive.' Fulvic water . Australian pop siblings Kylie and Dannii Minogue are said to be fans of BLK Fulvic Water, which has 77 trace minerals and electrolytes. The water is infused with fulvic acids which present naturally in peat. Price: £12.98 for four 500ml-bottles of BLK. Expert comment: 'Fulvic acid is often found in the layer of earth that feeds plants. It may have some benefit for us therefore as its like a concentrated trace mineral. 'I think the cost of this product goes beyond the price of a bottle of water, so perhaps this is best used as a course for a couple of months. It would be expensive to use each day.' Spring water infused with fulvic acid (left) and lemon combined with cold-pressed watermelon pulp (right) Maple water . Made from Canadian maple syrup, this water claims to contain 46 health-boosting ingredients including calcium, magnesium and potassium. Price: £2.45 for a 330ml bottle of Seva maple water . Expert comment: 'This sounds similar to birch and indeed, coconut water, so it is probably pleasant to drink and it seems it has similar qualities. 'I am not discounting the product but its potentially more expensive than coconut water which seems very similar. So personally I would stick to coconut water unless I was living in Canada where the maple water is probably cheaper!' Rainwater . Purified rainwater is big business in the US with companies all rushing out to catch, filter, bottle and sell rainwater to punters looking for a natural and ecologically sound liquid boost. Price: Currently not available in the UK although you can get it for £16 ($24) for 12 bottles on www.agana-water.com . Expert comment: 'Rainwater can be safe to drink; In fact this is how many people in countries across the world have access to water (think of remote areas or poorer parts of the world). 'But it would need to be cleaned and filtered. I am not sure of the health benefits and I think it would be more of value to health to drink mineral water, due to mineral content. Watermelon water . Cold pressed raw watermelon flesh, rind and pulp are combined with lemon to make this drink, which is said to contain calcium, vitamin C, potassium, magnesium and sodium. It comes in at 60-calories per bottle and also has lycopene and beta-carotene. Price: £66 for a pack of 12 335ml bottles of WTRMLN WTR . Expert comment: 'I quite like the look of this as a pre-workout or natural energy drink. 'It might be a little similar to coconut water but the nutrition is only like to vary slightly. I think this is  worth trying but as with all these drinks, I wouldn't expect a life changing experience. 'I also think you could make your own watermelon water and add organic lemon rind (skin) into the blender to increase immune and antioxidant nutrition.'

The chilling reenactment of how executions are carried out in Indonesia which was broadcast to millions of viewers is set to become a brutal reality for Andrew Chan and Myruan Sukumaran. Time has run out for the Bali Nine ringleaders who will face 12 marksmen, with only three of them holding loaded guns, at the stroke of midnight on Tuesday night - 3am Eastern Standard Time - in the depths of the jungle on Nusakambangan Island in Java. The Australian men are expected to be led from their isolated cells in Batu prison through the wildly dense tropical forest up a 3km steep winding track to a place called Nirbaya - or more appropriately known as Death Valley. Scroll down for video . Myuran Sukumaran (left) and Andrew Chan (right) will be given white clothing to wear and a choice whether to be blindfolded as they face the firing squad at the stoke of midnight on Tuesday . The final chilling steps to execution in Indonesia . A disturbing recreation of the execution was aired on Indonesian TV the day before five foreign drug traffickers were killed in January . Millions of viewers watched the chilling reenactment of the execution played out on national TV . The condemned pair will be given white clothing to wear, which symbolises the afterlife, before beginning their fatal trek and are given the option to be blindfolded with a piece of fabric before facing the firing squad who will be lined up anywhere from five to 10 metres in front of them. The confronting decisions continue for the death row inmates with the opportunity to choose whether to stand, sit or kneel before a cross is placed over their hearts acting as a target for the 12 riflemen - of which nine will have blanks and only three will have live rounds. If necessary their hands or feet will be tied to a 3m high pole or worse still - a wooden execution chair. The offender is then given a final chance to calm down for a maximum of three minutes before the riflemen are ordered to shoot them in the heart. It is then that the executing commander brandishes his sword as a sign for the 12 shooters to begin to fire their rifles. If the doctor confirms once the fires have been shot that the prisoner is still breathing - the executing commander orders for a pistol be put to the temple just above the ear for a final shot. However, the shooting can continue on the condemned, if the doctor declares that there is still signs of life. Some of the last words the men will hear are 'laksanakan, laksanakan' - meaning 'execute, execute' in Indonesian. The Australian men will be given a maximum of three minutes to calm down before being shot in the heart . Three shooters will have live rounds while nine other rifelemen will have blanks . The TV footage broadcasted four months ago showed Brimob executioners dressed in military fatigues with semi-automatic rifles practicing for the following day's execution by repeatedly firing at bullseye targets . Not even refusing to sign their death warrants on Saturday will delay the pair's deaths for their hand in plotting to smuggle 8kg of heroin out of Bali 10 years ago. The stark reality struck for the pair when they requested their final wishes - Sukumaran to continue his love of painting right up until the bitter end and Chan, who became a minister during his time behind bars, to attend a church service with his family. The prisoners can also make a final written request which can include declaring their guilt or innocence, along with how and where they wish to be buried. One of the last paintings Sukumaran will ever create was shown to the media on the Javanese island by his Australian lawyer Julian McMahon on Saturday. The haunting self portrait depicts a gun shot wound to his heart. This comes as coffins with both men's names and Wednesday's date were inscribed on wooden crosses by local funeral director Suhendra Putro. The clearing where the pair will be executed called Nirbaya - or more appropriately known as Death Valley . Sukumaran's self portrait shows a gaping wound on his heart (left) and the chilling words '72hrs just started' on the back of the frame (right) The television report also listed 27 very precise points about how the execution will be carried out .

Porto have nothing to prove coming into their quarter-final first leg against Bayern Munich as the only undefeated side in the Champions League. However Julen Lopetegui has warned his side has plenty of room to improve saying the team 'hasn't stopped growing'. When Lopetegui comes up against his former Barcelona team-mate Pep Guardiola, who the former goalkeeper labels 'a winner', at Dragao on Wednesday night, it will be a clash of the two most prolific scoring sides of the tournament so far. 'We come into this tie being able to enjoy what we have accomplished and aiming to give our best in both games, as we always do,' Lopetegui told Goal.com.

'Many new players arrived last summer, but we have our idea of playing and the team has worked very well since the beginning of the season.

A petition has been launched asking for Sunrise's Samantha Armytage to apologise for comments she made on-air last month, dubbed by some viewers as 'racist'. The cause of controversy came when the 37-year-old interviewed non-identical twins from the UK, Lucy and Maria Aylmer, who have become a sensation around the world due to their opposite skin tones. Introducing the 18-year-olds, Armytage congratulated ginger-haired Lucy on getting 'her dad's fair skin,' saying 'good on her.' Controversy: Sunrise host Samantha Armytage has come under fire for a comment made during a Sunrise broadcast last month . 'The Aylmer twins come from a mixed race family in the UK,' the Seven presenter's introduction began. 'Maria has taken after her half Jamaican mum with dark skin and brown eyes and curly dark hair, but Lucy got her dad's fair skin, good on her, along with straight red hair and blue eyes.' Co-host David 'Kochie' Koch seemed taken aback by the comment, taking a confused glance in the 37-year-old's direction. Armytage and Sunrise vehemently deny the claims of the petition, with a Seven spokesperson telling Daily Mail Australia: 'Regular members of the Sunrise audience or anyone who has seen the clip in full will know that Sam was taking a dig at herself.' 'She frequently jokes about the fair skin that runs in her family and difficult it can be to manage in extreme environments.' Confusing moment: Interviewing non-identical twins from the UK, Lucy and Maria Aylmer, she congratulated Lucy on 'getting her dad's fair skin,' saying 'good on her' Mistake? Co-host David 'Kochie' Koch seemed taken aback by the comment, taking a confused glance in the 37-year-old's direction . Still, the comment wasn't recieved well by many viewers, who took to social media to express their displeasure and to accuse her of making a 'racist' remark. The Change.com petition, which has since been signed by 186 people, was launched on Monday, and demands that Armytage, producer Michael Pell or a representative from Sunrise apologise for the comment. It was started by Melbournian artist Jay Fifth, 27, who told Daily Mail Australia: 'By Sam and the show not recognising, acknowledging and rectifying the statement, they are telling Australia this is acceptable when it is not.' The 27-year-old, who is himself of mixed descent with a Jamaican mother and a Polish father, added on the site that 'the "good on her" comment was inappropriate, extremely offensive and very racist.' Unhappy viewers: A Change.com petition was launched on Monday and demands that Armytage, producer Michael Pell or a representative from Sunrise apologise for the comment. The twins are pictured here in childhood . It's the second comment by Armytage that's raised eyebrows in recent weeks. In an interview with Seven's Hamish McLachlan, Samantha said she can be 'fragile at times' thanks to her grueling schedule, which she described as torturous. 'Remember I get up at 3:40 every morning - and sleep deprivation is a form of torture they used at Guantánamo Bay, so I can be fragile at times.' Rough month: It's the second comment by Armytage that's raised eyebrows in recent weeks, as earlier in April she compared her grueling Sunrise schedule to sleep deprivation torture methods used in Guantánamo Bay .

Human remains have been found in the search for a missing college freshman who vanished while home for spring break last month. Anjelica 'AJ' Hadsell, 18, has been missing since March 2, when she was on a break from Longwood University in Farmville, Virginia and home in Norfolk. The remains were found outside a residence in Franklin on Thursday morning, police said. Franklin is around 40 miles from Norfolk. The body has been sent to the Chief Medical Examiner's Office to be identified and to determine the cause of death. The FBI is now involved in the investigation, police said. Missing: AJ Hadsell has been missing since March 2 and on Thursday, police announced they had found remains 40 miles from her home. They have been sent to the medical examiner's office for identification . It comes after police focused their search on a pond near Carrsville last week after receiving a tip that her cell phone may be below its surface. Her stepdad Wesley Hadsell was arrested for breaking into a home; he says he was looking for AJ . Two days after the Hadsell vanished, police received a tip that she had been seen on the Virginia Commonwealth University campus, two hours away from where she was last seen by her family. Investigators have previously said there is no evidence of foul play, but her family and friends have said she wouldn't disappear on purpose. Earlier this week, her grandmother, Katherine Hadsell, blasted authorities for seemingly 'doing nothing' to bring the teenager home. And in a twist, Hadsell's stepfather was caught allegedly breaking into a home two weeks after Anjelica's disappearance, an act his mother Katherine says was out of fatherly concern. She told ABC News her son Wesley had heard his stepdaughter could be inside the home. 'As any father would, if you hear that your daughter may or may not be in a house or being held or some of her belongings or at a location, any father is going to try and find out,' she said. He was arrested on March 21 after being interrogated by police for more than 15 hours. Hadsell, 36, had not been named a suspect and has insisted he does not know where AJ is. He faces charges of obstructing justice, possessing ammunition and breaking and entering. Search: Last week, authorities searched a nearby pond near Carrsville (pictured) after receiving a tip that her cellphone might be below the surface. Carrseville is just six miles from where the remains were found . Fears: The 18-year-old freshman vanished while home on spring break from Longwood University . But Hadsell, who had been working in nearby Franklin, around the time of the disappearance, said he was only thinking about his daughter. 'I couldn't sit a minute away from where my daughter may have been,' he told WAVY.com. While searching the property for around 15 minutes, he claims that he discovered her jacket. 'I was just trying to make the evidence come to light,' he said. 'It's not like I had the jacket, I didn't plant the jacket, I didn't know anything about that. It was the fact of the overwhelming information that led me there.' The stepfather has aroused local suspicions because he has a lengthy felony criminal record. In 2005, his ex-wife went missing for several days and he was reportedly arrested after allegedly kidnapping her and driving her across multiple states. Concern: Her grandmother Katherine Hadsell said earlier this week that she did not think police were doing enough to find the teenager. She argued that her son, Wesley Hadsell, had been arrested unfairly . Charges of rape, kidnapping, assault and domestic violence were later dropped. He also served 54 months in prison for a bank robbery in Fredericksburg, Virginia, according to WTKR - but he insists that he is now a changed man. And in another twist, Jennifer Busby, AJ's mother, said she received texts from her daughter's phone shortly after he disappearance but was not convinced she was actually messaging the girl. AJ is described as standing at 5 feet 6 inches tall and weighing 120 pounds.

They may be known as masters of disguise, but this little owl couldn't conceal his jealousy as he desperately tried to interrupt a brotherly cuddle between his two siblings. As his two siblings settled down to have a rest on their tiny perch, the needy owlet was spotted tactfully creeping along a tree branch before tugging at one of his brother's wing. The little owl's sibling rivalry then gets the better of him, as he swoops under his sibling's wing, prompting an amusing game of tug-of-war. The scene was photographed from just six metres away by 48-year-old Dean Mason who hid away in a camouflaged shelter, known as a hide, in Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire. He said: 'The three siblings are doing exactly what siblings do - playing combined with the odd argument.' He added: 'Every time I capture something unusual, my heart pounds. I feel such an adrenalin rush whilst at the same time hoping I've made the right choice of camera settings.' The birds are small owls, a species which typically measures 22cm tall. The bird was introduced to the UK in the 19th century and is most common in central, southern and south eastern England.

Famous Italian designers like Fendi, Gucci and Prada may be toted by celebrities such as Rihanna, Kate Moss and Katy Perry, but few are probably aware of the history behind the brands they wear. A new book has now archived the changing face of Italian fashion, from the post-war years to the 21st century. Italian Glamour: The Essence of Italian Fashion, From the Postwar Years to the Present Day, captures the evolution of Mediterranean style through 300 iconic dresses and archived images. Model Joan Olsen (left) shows off bold linear prints in an outfit by haute couture designer/artist Livio de Simone in 1954. Co-author Enrico says that Italian glamour is not 'sophisticated or artificial' The book was compiled by Enrico Quinto and Paolo Tinarelli - the two men who were the first to introduce the concept of vintage style in Italy . The volume has been compiled by Enrico Quinto, 51, and Paolo Tinarelli, 49. The two men established the first flea market in Rome and were the first to introduce the concept of vintage in Italy. Enrico revealed that they wanted to honour the Italian designers who have helped to make the country a fashion powerhouse. He said: 'The pioneers that have really put Italy on the map of international fashion have been Emilio Pucci in the Fifties, Missoni and Krizia in the Sixties, Giorgio Armani and Gianni Versace in the Seventies and Eighties, and Dolce & Gabbana, Prada and Gucci in the Nineties.' Fifties cover girl Ivy Nicholson wears Emilio Pucci in Capri, 1953. The book talks about how the start of many Italian fashion powerhouses started out with a real focus on craftsmanship . The book focuses on the humble beginnings of some of the world's biggest Italian brands and how they rose to cultural significance. It looks at how designers such as Miuccia Prada, Giorgio Armani and Adele Casagrande, founder of Fendi, have created a legacy within their labels. Many Italian powerhouses started out with a focus on craftsmanship, using work methods and decorative traditions that were passed down through generations. Post-war economic development in the fifties saw the expansion of the advertising industry into high fashion. Designers such as Alma Maria Lami constructed clothes that were decorated with a patchwork of ideas and activities . The book also explores momentous periods which truly characterised Italian fashion. For example, post-war economic development in the Fifties saw the expansion of the advertising industry into high fashion. Designers like Alma Maria Lami constructed clothes that were decorated with patchworks of cartoon-like ideas and activities, which subtly influenced buyers. A woman wears a structural suit by Fernandi, at a time when Italian fashion was beginning to break away from Parisian style . In the mid-fifties, Emilio Frederico Schuberth created an outfit which had a removable over-skirt so that the wearer could opt for a straight or flared silhouette . Another poignant moment came in the mid-Fifties, where Italian fashion began to break away from what Parisian style dictated. Creative directors such as Emilio Frederico Schuberth began to create structurally innovative creations. Italian Glamour also looks at breakthrough moments for Italian fashion, such as one of the first runway showcases in Florence, which saw the artistic city overtake Paris as the global fashion capital. From that moment on, styles quickly progressed. By the mid-Forties, Italian designers began to take their inspiration from Hollywood femme fatales rather than Parisian fashion. Religion was also an inspiration, which explains the high-necks and dark tones often seen in that period.

In the mid-forties, Italian designers began to take their inspiration from Hollywood femme fatales rather than Parisian fashion. Religion was also an inspiration, which explains the high-necks and dark tones . Model Liliana Mongini wears Germana Marucelli in January 1950. Marucelli was the first Italian post-war designer - her designs were on several occasions interpreted by Christian Dior . In fact, Parisian fashion soon began to follow the lead of Italian innovators. Germana Marucelli was the first Italian post-war designer, and her designs were, on several occasions, interpreted by Frenchman Christian Dior. The book also examines how trends developed over the years and iconic celebrity moments that would cement a designer's fame. One in particular came in 1956, when Italian-French film star Sophia Loren wore a sweeping gown by Emilio Schuberth at the Cannes Festival. Schuberth became known as the 'tailor to the stars', and also catered for the likes of Rita Hayworth and Brigitte Bardot. His students included Valentino Garavani - who continues to be an Italian powerhouse today. Impossibly glamorous: In 1956, Italian-French film star Sophia Loren wore a sweeping gown by Emilio Schuberth at the Cannes Festival . This dress by Emilio Schuberth cemented his position as 'tailor to the stars' Late sixties and early seventies creations from Fendi, including the bag with the signature interlocking Fs (right) Examples of humble beginnings are especially surprisingly when looking at labels such as Fendi - who originally came into existence as a leather and fur shop in Rome. From the mid-Sixties, Karl Lagerfeld was involved in the design of Fendi's logo with the interlocking F letters. Several designers in the book, such as Federico Forquet, are no longer operational, but were important in influencing and shaping the overall movement and progression of Italian fashion. The book also highlights how certain Italian designers, such as Roberto Carpucci, were propelled to fame when clothes were featured in advertorials - eventually appearing in publications such as Vogue. A piece from Italian designer Federico Forquet, in his autumn/winter 1965 collection . Renowned Italian designer, Roberto Carpucci's structural designs featured in Vogue Italia in 1982 . A defining moment for Italian fashion was circa 1994; Elizabeth Hurley stepped out in a Versace safety pin gown that was to become one of the most iconic dresses of all time. From then on, it seemed that Italian fashion was the pinnacle of daring style. Co-author of the book, Enrico Quinto says that Italian glamour is 'in the DNA of an Italian's lifestyle'. He adds: 'Italian glamour is not sophisticated or artificial; it keeps conscious of the female's body, and it works in the same way as the idea of 'Dolce Far Niente' - the sweetness of doing nothing. It's an accessible beauty - simple and natural.' Elizabeth Hurley in 1994 (left), pictured with then-beau, Hugh Grant (right) wearing the Versace dress that would go down in fashion history . Liz Hurley's dress (pictured) was a creation from Gianni Versace's spring/summer 1994 collection . In fact, Italian style has made a huge contribution to the fashion industry today, with Milan Fashion Week still a crucial part of the circuit, and with young models such as Kendall Jenner flocking to Milan every year. Popular culture figures such as Rihanna, are also active lovers of the Italian style. Rihanna recently customised a Fendi Baguette bag for a charity auction, along with Sarah Jessica Parker. Rihanna toting not one but two of her customised Baguette bags with Fendi at the launch . Successful models such as Kendall Jenner (pictured) flock to Milan Fashion Week every season to walk in shows such as Dolce & Gabbana (left - Autumn/Winter 2015, right - Spring/Summer 2015). Italian style is very much still crucial to the fashion landscape . In terms of the state of Italian glamour now, Enrico argues that it is a changing landscape, but something that maintains its simplicity. 'Italy has become more global and the melting pot of different nationalities has automatically brought new influences into Italy's lifestyle. 'I believe that the essence of Italian glamour is based on a certain 'minimalism'. Clothing still has to be practical and adapted to an understated lifestyle. Italian Glamour: The Essence of Italian Fashion, From the Postwar Years to the Present Day (Skira Editore) is out on 30 March 2015.

A four-poster bed which was dumped in a hotel car park and sold for £2,200 has been verified as once belonging to King Henry VII – and it could now be worth millions. The intricately-carved ornate bed was left in the car park of the former Redland House Hotel in Hough Green, Chester, by builders who were renovating the property. Oblivious to its true value and historical significance, the construction workers dismantled the piece of oak wood furniture and left it to be picked up by auctioneers. The four-poster oak wood bed (above), which was dumped in the car park of Redland House Hotel in Chester and later sold at auction for £2,200, has now been confirmed by DNA as once belonging to King Henry VII . The intricately-carved bed was left in the car park of the former hotel by builders who were renovating the property and, oblivious to its true value and historical significance, left it to be picked up by auctioneers . It was snapped up for £2,200 in 2010 by Ian Coulson, a four-poster bed specialist from Northumberland who spotted the item, which was listed as 19th-century gothic revival, on the internet. However, he was shocked when his new 'Victorian' purchase arrived and approached TV historian Jonathan Foyle with a suspicion that the bed was, in fact, the only surviving Tudor bed. Since then, Mr Foyle has spent years trying to prove the artefact's historical roots and has now revealed that DNA testing on the bed's timber proved it once belonged to King Henry VII. He said tests confirmed it was European oak and of a sub-species 'typical of the origin of the finest, slow-grown oak imported by the medieval elites', with analysis of the historic paintwork proving its age. 'Under the varnish, traces of late medieval decoration have been found,' he said. He has traced it back to 1495, when Henry VII went to Lathom in Lancashire to see the Stanley family, who had helped him to victory in the Battle of Bosworth in 1485. Mr Foyle said DNA from the bed's timber proved it once belonged to King Henry VII (pictured) and he traced it back to 1495, when Henry VII went to Lathom in Lancashire. Henry VIII may have been conceived in the bed . The bed was snapped up by Ian Coulson, a four-poster bed specialist from Northumberland, for £2,200 in 2010 after it was dumped in the car park of the former Redland House Hotel in Hough Green, Chester (above) TV historian Jonathan Foyle has spent years trying to prove the artefact's historical roots and has now revealed that DNA testing on the bed's timber proved the medieval furniture once belonged to King Henry VII . He also discovered that the bed features an inscription from the Matthew Bible of 1537 - reading: 'The stinge of death is sinne. The strength of sinne is the lawe' - which was added after 1547, when England had a Protestant monarch. The carving also features biblical scenes of Henry and his wife Elizabeth of York styled as Adam and Eve, and as Jesus Christ and his mother, the Virgin Mary and the figures are accompanied by medieval symbols of fertility, such as acorns, bunches of grapes and strawberries. Meanwhile, scribblings in a Victorian furniture restorer's diary suggested that the bed was at Lathom when it was damaged during a siege in 1644. Mr Foyle said he had proved that the item was not the work of Victorian revivalists by reflecting on the Tudors' belief that they had been chosen by God to save England from civil war. The bed features an inscription from the Matthew Bible of 1537 - reading: 'The stinge of death is sinne. The strength of sinne is the lawe' - which was added after 1547, when England had a Protestant monarch . The bed also features carvings of biblical scenes of Henry and his wife Elizabeth of York styled as Adam and Eve, and as Jesus Christ and his mother, the Virgin Mary and the figures of medieval symbols of fertility . He said the headboard showed Henry VII and his bride as Adam and Eve transmuted into Christ - adding: 'It's arguably the cradle of the English Reformation. Henry VIII may have been conceived in bed . The carved four-poster bed, which has been revealed as Henry VIIs, was reportedly created for the marriage of the first Tudor King and his wife, Elizabeth of York, on January 18, 1486. It is highly likely that the couple's son, Henry, was conceived in the bed - meaning the item may have a physical link to the beginning of the Tudor dynasty. Born at Greenwich Palace in 1491, Henry VIII was the third child and second son of Henry VII and his wife. Only three of his six siblings survived infancy - and he succeeded his father as king following his death on 22 April, 1509. Under Henry VIII's reign, England turned in favour of Protestantism and split from Rome, the Royal Navy built up a fleet of about 50 ships and the country invaded France. Jonathan Foyle, chief executive of World Monuments Fund Britain, said: 'This bed belonged to Henry VIII. It has to be the most important piece of furniture [in England' - and arguably, royal artefact.' He added: 'Even the Westminster coronation chair has less to say than this.' Experts believe Henry VII may have taken the bed north while on a royal tour following the birth of his son. 'Look how the king and queen represent themselves as manifestations of Christ and Mary; it's Henry VIII's God complex in a nutshell.' Dr Foyle described the 15th Century artefact, which is considered one of the most valuable pieces of historical furniture in England, as 'a complete national treasure'. He added: 'Evidence suggests the bed was made for the Painted Chamber of Westminster Palace for the marriage ceremony at Westminster Abbey on January 18, 1486.' Mr Foyle is backed by other experts, such as Diarmaid MacCulloch, professor of the history of the church at Oxford University, who described the rediscovery as 'exceptionally important'. The medieval bed is now reportedly worth up to £20million, although it is currently not up for sale and is instead on public display. It is part of the 'A Bed of Roses' exhibition at the childhood home of Anne Boleyn, Henry VIII's second wife, at Hever Castle in Kent which also features a portrait of Henry VIII as a young man. The bed is not the only historical royal artefact to have been discovered abandoned or hidden in England. In 2013, the battle-scarred skeleton of Richard III was discovered by archaeologists in a car park in Leicester. Meanwhile, in December of the same year, archaeologists uncovered a site in the Amazonian jungle believed to be the tomb of Atahualpa, the last emporer of the Incas. And last year, explorers found a piece of a pelvis that could belong to Alfred the Great in the grounds of Hyde Abbey in Winchester. Henry VII's four-poster bed will remain on display in the Long Gallery at Hever Castle in Kent until November 22.

This garden gnome might not look like much but he is now worth £17,000 – with a little help from his friends. The cardboard gnome was signed by all four members of the Beatles after starring on the iconic cover of the Fab Four's 1967 album Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Cardboard cutouts or waxworks of more than 60 celebrities including Bob Dylan and Marlon Brando were on the cover picture, which was the brainchild of artists Peter Blake and Jann Haworth and photographer Michael Cooper. The cardboard gnome was signed by all four members of the Beatles after starring on the iconic cover of the Fab Four's 1967 album Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band . The tiny cardboard gnome is next to the legs of George Harrison, who is wearing red on the album's cover art . The gnome is next to the legs of George Harrison, who is wearing red on the album art. Following the shoot on March 30, 1967, Mr Cooper's photography assistant was given the 20-inch tall cardboard gnome as a souvenir by the band, who each signed it. The model has emerged for sale almost 50 years later after being listed for auction by a private collector. Auctioneers in the US have valued the gnome, which has some water damage, at about £17,000. Dean Harmeyer, of Heritage Auctions, said: 'This is a true rarity and a cornerstone piece of any Beatles collection.' The album cover ended up being so extravagant that the final cost of producing the artwork was £3,000 - a whopping £50,000 in today's money. The front and back of the gnome were then mounted alongside an unopened copy of the Sgt Pepper's vinyl LP. 'Designer Peter Blake worked with the Beatles to stage the cover of Sgt. Pepper's, which was filled with life-size cardboard likenesses of famous figures - Mae West, Bob Dylan, Marlon Brando - behind the Beatles,' Mr. Harmeyer explained. The Gnome has been valued at £1,700 and was singed by all four members of the band after the shoot . On the shoot: Assistants organise the set for the artwork which cost £3,000 - the equivalent of £50,000 today . 'At the end of the cover session on March 30, 1967, the gnome was chosen as a memento by an assistant to cover photographer Michael Cooper, and it was signed by the Beatles immediately following the shoot. 'The gnome is in two parts - both front and back were created by Blake for the shoot, and presumably joined together, which may explain the small holes at the top and bottom of each. 'The Beatles have all signed the back in the lower, lighter portion in green marker. 'There appears to have been a liquid spill to on the back after the signing, which has affected the Ringo and John signatures. 'Both the front and back elements measure approximately 20 inches high by 5 inches wide. Both gnome elements are framed with a vintage, unopened stereo copy of the LP.

This is the extraordinary moment a brave hippopotamus stood its ground against two hungry lions and managed to send them on their way after charging towards them. These incredible pictures show the hungry three-year-old big cats attempting to hunt the much larger hippo in the depths of Zimbabwe's Hwange National Park. At first, as the lions approach the large mammal, the hippo tries to scare them off before wandering towards nearby water. However, as the lions continue to prowl, the animal abruptly turns around and charges towards the two predators, successfully scaring them off before retreating to its territory. Scroll down for video . The brave hippopotamus could be seen standing its ground against the young lions in the depths of Zimbabwe's Hwange National Park . The hippo attempted to scare off the three-year-old lions as they tried to attack the mammal at the nature reserve in the west of Zimbabwe . The large hippo waits until the lions appear to back down before attempting to turn around and retreat towards some nearby water . The hippopotamus makes its way into some muddy water while the lions look on, but the dramatic altercation is far from over yet . The dramatic altercation was caught on camera by researcher Brent Stapelkamp, who has been studying the activities and behaviour of lions in the Zimbabwean reserve for years. The 37-year-old said: 'The two male lions in the photos are just three-years-old and left their pride a few days before these shots were taken. 'As far as we can tell they have not eaten anything since they left and this incident was probably their first try at self-catering. 'The lions attempted to catch the large calf, but the hippo quickly ran to the safety of the water. 'As the lions walked away the cocky hippo showed them who is boss and charged right back at the two cats causing them to scatter.' As the lions continue to taunt the hippo, the large mammal turns around and charges out of the water towards the two young lions . The stand-off was caught on camera by researcher Brent Stapelkamp, who has been studying the behaviour of lions in the area for years . The three-year-old lions, who may be trying to land their first catch, finally back away from the hippo as it continues to charge at them . The hippo retreats to others of its kind as the lions finally leave the pack alone and instead simply look on from afar. Mr Stapelkamp said the lions will become more adept at hunting prey as they mature, adding: 'They will learn that they are probably better off eating warthogs' Mr Stapelkamp explained that as the pair of lions mature they will become more adept at hunting prey. He said: 'As brothers these two will no doubt stick together in their dispersal and form a coalition which has a better chance of securing territory. 'They will soon learn that rather than catching large prey like this hippo calf, they are probably better off eating warthogs and young giraffe first. 'The hippo was actually not scared at all, no doubt secure in the knowledge that mum was just meters away ready to help out.'

Frail and tired of leading a secret life for four decades, 66-year-old Clarence David Moore called police this week to surrender. The deputy who answered thought it was a prank. It wasn't. Moore escaped from police custody three times during the 1970s and eventually settled into a quiet life, living in Kentucky since at least 2009. His health is poor from a stroke late last year and he has difficulty speaking. When Franklin County Sheriff Pat Melton showed up at Moore's house to make the 'arrest,' Moore was in a hospital bed. He broke down in tears. He told the sheriff he needed medical help. Turned himself in: Clarence David Moore, an escapee from a North Carolina prison turned himself in to authorities on Monday, April 20, 2015 after four decades of being on the run . 'He looks like he's almost 90,' the sheriff said. A woman who had been living with Moore had no idea of his past. 'She was just blown away when all this happened,' the sheriff said. On Wednesday, a woman who answered the door at the single-story ranch home declined comment. The modest neighborhood on the outskirts of the state's capital was dotted with brick homes with well-tended yards. Two sport-utility vehicles were parked in the driveway. Moore was convicted of larceny of more than $200 in North Carolina in 1967 and was sentenced to up to seven years in prison, according to records from the Department of Public Safety. While working with a road crew in the Asheville area, he escaped and was recaptured in 1971. He escaped again the following year and was on the lam until he was apprehended in Texas in 1975. His third escape from a Henderson County prison was Aug. 6, 1976. On Monday, after he called police, he was taken from his home by ambulance to a local hospital for evaluation and then to jail, where he remained in custody Wednesday. 'As soon as he saw us, he started crying,' Melton said Wednesday. Criminal past: This undated photo provided by North Carolina Department Of Public Safety shows fugitive Clarence David Moore in his youth . 'He said, "I just want to get this behind me. I want to be done."' Moore has declined requests for interviews. Melton said he knew little about Moore's life before arriving in Kentucky, other than Moore spent time working on boats along the East Coast. Neighbor Jim Clark, a former correctional officer, said he knew Moore by an alias. He was an attentive neighbor who would collect the Clarks mail for them when they went on vacation and let them know if they had left their garage door open at night. 'He was a nice neighbor. He was a very compassionate person. He didn't have any hatred in his heart toward anyone,' Clark said. Moore had lived in Frankfort since at least 2009, when he was involved in a traffic crash, Melton said. Moore was cited then for not having a driver's license. He didn't appear for his court date and was charged with contempt. He went by the name of Ronnie T. Dickinson in that case, and has used other aliases. Neighbor Richard Colyer said he knew Moore as Ronnie Dickinson. He said Moore was a private man who moved into the neighborhood three to four years ago. Sometimes Moore would sit on his front porch and wait for the mail. The sheriff said he thought Moore's poor health factored into his decision to turn himself in. As he arrived at the jail, Moore thanked the sheriff for his kindness. 'He made some bad choices, but at the end of the day he wanted to make them right and he stepped up,' Melton said. A good neighbor: Claremce David Moore resided in this Kentucky home where his neighbors described him as being compassionate .

As the anniversary of their daughter's suicide approaches, Michael and Jane Cleland have spoken of their battle to have the two teenage boys, who they say bullied their daughter to death, held accountable for their actions under cyber bullying laws. Jessica Cleland, from Wallan, Victoria, was 19 when she took her own life on Easter Saturday last year, after receiving Facebook messages from two teenage boys she considered friends saying that they hated her, and that she was a 'f***ing sook'. Her parents said that Jessica's social media accounts were flooded with horrible sentiments the night before she died, and are now desperate to see a change within Victoria’s Government and the state's police so that those found guilty of cyber bullying face serious consequences. The parents of Jessica Cleland (pictured) are campaigning for anti-bullying laws to be taken more seriously . 'What we would like to see happen is that if someone is cyber bullying somebody and they cause something like this, then they should be held ­accountable for it,' said Jessica's father Michael. On Easter Saturday last year, Jessica told her her mother that she was going for a run. Her sister Amy became concerned after seeing an Instagram photo Jessica uploaded with the caption 'I love this place and I am never going to leave'. Jessica's father found her body on the Sunday in the same place where the photo had been taken. The Cleland's said that Jessica was a vibrant and and outgoing girl, who was looking forward to her gap year and had never exhibited symptoms of depression or mental illness before the two former friends began bullying her online. Coroner Jacqui Hawkins said in the report she released in October that Jessica's death highlighted the impact that social media could have on the lives on young people, and that both Facebook and text messaging was 'problematic' for the teenager. 'Easy access to the internet on her phone meant that she was exposed to potentially upsetting communications 24 hours a day; and she was able to return to, and re-read, the upsetting messages at a later time and therefore appears to have continued to ruminate about them,' the coroners report said. 'Although it is not possible to identify, with any degree of certainty, the factors contributing to a person's decision to take their own life, it is evident that messages received by Jessica online proximate to her death...were precipitating factors,' reported The ABC. Jessica (pictured right, with her sister Amy, left) committed suicide after she was bullied over Facebook . Following the release of the coroners report, the Cleland's are now campaigning to see cyber bullying taken more seriously in Victoria and around Australia. Victoria already has anti-bullying legislation known as Brodie's Law, which was introduced in 2011 after the death of Brodie Panlock, who committed suicide after being subject to relentless bullying in her workplace. The crime is punishable by ten years in jail, and applies to cyber bullying as well as physical, verbal and psychological bullying. Despite these laws, and the finding of the coroner who named the two teenage boys, there has been no charges and no inquest into Jessica's death, which the Cleland's labelled as a failure. Police also failed to produce a warrant to obtain communication between Jessica and her bullies from Facebook and Snapchat. The Cleland's said that they were disappointed with the Victorian police for failing to investigate and want to see the teenagers held accountable for their actions. 'If you accidentally hit someone in your car you can get manslaughter. What’s the difference if you bully someone and cause them to take their own life?', Jessica's mother Jane told The Herald-Sun. 'They keep saying they’re going to have a big push on cyber bullying and try to knock it on the head, but it seems like it’s too much hard work.' Jessica's grandmother wrote of the impact of the 19-year-old's death on the family, and called for harsher enforcement of the anti-bullying legislation. 'It seems there is a law in Victoria that criminalises cyber bullying, but it doesn't get enforced because of the police paperwork...Cyber bullying is a silent killer of too many of our young ones,' she wrote. 'We have the evidence ... but where's the justice?' If you or someone you know is struggling with mental illness or depression, please contact Lifeline on 13 11 14.

The teenagers were named in the coroners report but weren't investigated . Her parents want to see cyber bullying legislation be taken seriously .

The mailman who landed a gyrocopter on the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol this week to protest campaign finance laws has returned home. Doug Hughes, 61, spent two years planning his stunt, which involved crossing the no-fly zone with letters for all 535 members of Congress. Now under arrest, he has been chaperoned back to his home in Ruskin, Florida, where he will wear an electronic tag until his first court hearing in Washington, D.C., next month. He is expected to issue a statement today and has until 10am on Monday to register with a probation officer. SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO . House arrest: Doug Hughes, 61, is home in Ruskin, Florida, for his house arrest as he awaits his court date . After a series of interviews, the Secret Service has decided not to prosecute Mr Hughes' wife Alena, who claims she was not aware of the plan. Under interrogation, Mrs Hughes told officers her husband said he was going to Virginia but did not elaborate. The family's attorney Paul Carr told WTPO the saga has been a strain on Mrs Hughes and the couple's 12-year-old daughter. 'After this morning when [Alena] found out she would not be facing any charges, that was a great relief for her,' Carr told the station. 'She knew he was going to leave and indicated he was going to Virginia.' Earlier this week, following the stunt on Wednesday, Mrs Hughes defended her husband as a 'patriot'. 'From the public point of view this is very brave,' Mrs Hughes told WFLA. 'I think he's patriot and I'm proud of him.' However, Mr Hughes, who is charged with violating restricted airspace and operating an unregistered aircraft, was asked by the Associated Press if he defined himself as a patriot: he said, 'no I'm a mailman.' The mailman has received support on both Facebook and Twitter for the stunt. The 61-year-old even has a fan page on Facebook called 'Doug Hughes is awesome' and many Twitter users have riddled the social media site with kudos for the man. Patriot: Hughes' wife, Alena Hughes (photographed), said she is proud of her husband and said he is a 'patriot' Land: After more than two years of planning, Hughes made it through restricted airspace in a gyrocopter Wednesday carrying 535 letters and landed the aircraft on the Capitol lawn (photographed) Charged: Hughes was promptly arrested for the stunt and charged Thursday with violating restricted airspace and operating an unregistered aircraft . While, Mrs Hughes says she is proud of her husband and will 'support him no matter what' the Belarus native told NBC that the days following the incident have been 'stressful.' She said that she has not slept much since her husband's stunt and felt betrayed because if something had happened to Hughes it would have affected their family. She and Hughes have a 12-year-old daughter and Hughes has adult children from a previous marriage. Mrs Hughes struggled to describe the situation to the child and told the 12-year-old that her father 'loves his country.' Mr and Mrs Hughes have been married for thirteen years. After meeting online, the two went on a few dates in Moscow and St. Petersburg in Russia. Mrs Hughes moved to the U.S. in 2002 and the two got married. Mrs Hughes said she knew that Doug was interested in politics but had no idea of his risky plan when he bought the gyrocopter two years ago. She told WFLA that she was sure Hughes wasn't doing anything wrong. Struggle: Mrs Hughes struggled to describe the situation to their 12-year-old daughter .

Mrs Hughes said her husband had his own lawyer in Washington, but she has hired an attorney, Paul Carr, in Florida to represent her. 'After discussing the situation with her, I didn't see any criminal intent,' Carr said. 'In fact, there's a lot of people that would like to approach Congress.' Hughes' stunt raised security concerns as lawmakers said the incident exposed a security gap. The concerns were raised further amid revelations that Hughes was interviewed by the Secret Service almost two years ago and revealed his plan for the stunt to both the Tampa Bay Times -- which has recently come under fire for failing to stop the stunt -- and in a 2013 blog post.

The Tories are inching ahead of Labour as Nigel Farage starts to peel off Ed Miliband’s supporters. And English voters are so alarmed by the prospect of being ruled by Nicola Sturgeon with Miliband in her pocket that they would prefer to get rid of her – and Scotland – by giving the country independence after all. These are among the remarkable findings of a Survation poll for The Mail on Sunday which illustrates growing fears about the result of the most closely fought Election for decades. A Survation poll for the Mail on Sunday has shown a swing towards the Tories against Miliband's Labour party . Fear of Nicola Sturgeon, pictured, among Labour voters in England is pushing them towards Nigel Farage . David Cameron, pictured, has surged ahead by three points in the polls going into the final stage of the election . The poll suggests David Cameron is pulling ahead of Labour. The Conservatives are on 33 points, followed by Labour on 30, Ukip 18 and the Lib Dems 9 – the third Survation poll in a row to show a lead for the Tories. Intriguingly, there are signs that Labour, and not the Tories, is at risk from Farage’s Ukip. In the past three weeks, Ukip support has risen by five points, with a corresponding four-point fall in backing for Labour. Furthermore, the Tories could benefit from Ukip voters returning to them as a result of the ‘Red Ed and Nicola the Nat’ factor. Asked if they would consider voting Conservative to stop a Miliband-Sturgeon alliance running the country, nearly two in five Ukip supporters said yes, against one in two who said no. The new trends coincide with the huge impact of Scottish Nationalist leader Sturgeon on the campaign since the TV debates, in which she repeatedly squared up to Miliband. The poll offers Cameron hope that more Ukip supporters may be provoked into returning to the Tories as a result of the Sturgeon threat. The dip in Miliband’s popularity appears to reflect the belief that if he relied on Sturgeon to get his legislation approved by Parliament, she would hold the whip hand – even though her party would have only a fraction of the number of Labour MPs. More than half of those polled think Sturgeon would have the upper hand over Miliband, with fewer than three in ten saying the Labour leader would call the shots. The latest poll expressed concern over the possible influence Nicola Sturgeon would have over Ed Miliband . The poll also highlights the growing resentment among English voters at the thought of Scottish Nationalist MPs shaping laws in England on issues such as schools and hospitals, even though English MPs have no such power over these matters in Scotland. A third said that if the Election produced a Miliband-Sturgeon pact to run Britain, they would regard the result as ‘illegitimate’. That bears out the stark warning made by Home Secretary Theresa May today of the danger of a backlash by English voters if the SNP is involved in the Government of the UK. A total of 37 per cent of those polled said they would regard such a result as legitimate. According to the poll, English people may decide they would rather Scotland was given independence than be ruled by Left-wing Scottish Nationalists in harness with Labour. In the event of Miliband and Sturgeon forming some kind of ruling pact, more than 40 per cent said they would prefer Scotland to be independent. A third disagreed. In effect, it could lead to England and Wales declaring independence from Scotland in a reversal of last year’s referendum, when the Scots voted to stay in the UK. The poll leaves no room for doubt where voters think Sturgeon’s heart lies. Nearly three in four say she cares more about Scottish independence than whether the UK economy is doing will. Fewer than one in eight disagree. The survey also contains more evidence of Cameron’s personal ratings lead over Miliband. By a margin of nearly two to one, the public believes Miliband’s claim that the Prime Minister was to blame for the deaths of nearly 1,000 migrants from Libya in the Mediterranean showed that the Labour leader was ‘unfit to be PM’. The survey also indicates the Conservatives are winning the key economic arguments. Voters believe that if the Tories win the General Election on May 7, the economy is more likely to grow over the next five years; taxes and unemployment will be lower; the country will be safer; welfare abuse will be curbed and people will be generally better off. Labour won on two counts: better schools and hospitals and fewer food banks.

English voters have grave concerns over Nicola Sturgeon's power plan . Half believe Ms Sturgeon will have the upper hand over Ed Miliband . Ukip has been gaining support from former Labour voters and not Tories . The poll shows SNP are more interested in independence that the economy . Survation interviewed 1,004 people online on Friday and Saturday.

The Navy says a second SEAL has died following a training accident in a swimming pool at a base in Virginia. Lt. David Lloyd tells media outlets that Special Warfare Operator 1st Class Brett Allen Marihugh of Livonia, Michigan, died Sunday. The 34-year-old Marihugh and 32-year-old Special Warfare Operator 1st Class Seth Cody Lewis of Queens, New York, were found unresponsive on Friday at the bottom of the Combat Swimming Training Facility at Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story. Lewis died Friday. Lloyd says both sailors were members of Naval Special Warfare Group 2. 'Training accident': Special Warfare Operator 1st Class Brett Allen Marihugh (left) of Livonia, Michigan, died Sunday after he and 32-year-old Special Warfare Operator 1st Class Seth Cody Lewis were found unresponsive at the bottom of a swimming pool from what officials called a 'training accident' While an investigation of the incident is continuing, Navy spokesman Lieutenant David Lloyd told Reuters Friday, 'They were working out in the pool...They were swimming. It was not dive training.' Marihugh and Lewis both served in the U.S. Marine Corps before they enlisted in the Navy. 'We are all deeply saddened by Brett's passing and would ask for your thoughts, prayers and support for the Marihugh and Lewis family, NSW community, and our friends and teammates at this time,' said Capt. Pete Vasely, Commander, Naval Special Warfare Group TWO, said in a release. 'Both of these fierce warriors were admired and highly respected among everyone who knew them. We will continue to investigate what happened. We owe it to the families and our teammates.' Marihugh joined the Navy in 2006 after serving in the U.S. Marine Corps from 1999 to 2003. Marihugh was the recipient of multiple awards including the Bronze Star, Joint Service Achievement Medal, Combat Action Ribbon and the Navy/Marine Corps Commendation Medal with Combat V in support of the global war on terrorism, according to the release. Lewis enlisted in the United States Navy in December 2006 after having served in the U.S. Marine Corps from 2001-2005, according to his biography. Lewis made multiple deployments to Afghanistan and Iraq, where he earned the Bronze Star, Purple Heart, U.S. Navy/Marine Corps Commendation Medal with Valor, the U.S. Navy/Marine Corps Achievement Medal with Valor and other campaign and service medals. He is survived by his wife Kristy and their beloved dogs Baby, Kona and Lyla.

Mirallas was one of Everton’s top performers in the first half of the campaign but his form has tailed off following a number of hamstring injuries and he has wanted by Tottenham during the January transfer window. It was mooted at one point that Mirallas and Lennon could be part of a swap deal but Lennon arrived at Goodison Park on loan and has made a big impression on his manager; it would cost £6million to make his signing permanent when the window re-opens. Roberto Martinez will hold talks with Kevin Mirallas and admits he wants to keep loanee Aaron Lenon . Mirallas has made no secret of his ambition to play in the Champions League and Martinez, whose side face Swansea on Saturday, will speak to him after the final game about what his intentions are moving forward. ‘Every player needs to be pleased and happy with that, so in the summer we'll sit down and assess what has been,’ said Martinez. ‘For that reason the next seven games are vital and will give you a much clearer picture of what you do in the summer. Belgian attacker Mirallas was one of Everton’s top performers in the first half of the campaign . ‘I know there have been a couple of times he's had quotes translated from interviews. I don't think anything he has said is disrespectful or out of the norm. The way I see it he's one of those players who loves playing football and he hasn't got any other motivation. ‘He still has a two year contract. If he were out of contract, I would be worried, but all I want is for him to be fully recovered.’ Mirallas has made no secret of his ambition to play in the Champions League . Lennon has caught the eye in recent weeks and Martinez wants him to maintain his impressive form all the way through until the end of May. ‘He’s been a really impressive footballer,’ said Martinez. ‘The way he’s engaged with the other players has been quite impressive. I think he’s brought know-how and experience but also that freshness of wanting to show what he can do. ‘The next seven games will be very important to see if he can carry on enjoying his football and then like any loan situation it’s a three way conversation that, first of all, the player needs to see that experience as a positive one and then we’ll see what the parent club wants to do. ‘But it’s not a decision we need to make now. The next seven games is an eternity in football.’ Lennon is all smiles as Everton train ahead of their weekend fixture against Swansea City . Lennon is challenged Victor Wanyama during the Premier League match between Everton and Southampton .

Nasa has unveiled a revolutionary type of wing that it says could save millions in air travel. The wing is able to morph itself like that of a bird to provide the same functionality as normal flaps, but with much less weight. It can also reportedly be used to increase fuel efficiency and even reduce noise on take-off and landing. Scroll down for videos . Nasa has been testing a flexible wing on a plane in California (shown). The wing can bend from -2 degrees up to 30 degrees. It means that regular flaps aren't needed - and it is much lighter. In this image, the technology is visible at the flat 'flap at the base of the wing . The latest test of the technology took place above Nasa’s Armstrong Flight Research Center in Edwards, California. Over the past six months, 22 research flights of the Adaptive Compliant Trailing Edge (ACTE) flight control surface has taken place. The project is a collaboration between Nasa, the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) and FlexSys from Ann Arbor Michigan. The wing is able to ‘bend’ through angles from -2 degrees up to 30 degrees. Test pilots have described it as being ‘very smooth’, while it can also deal with hard banking manoeuvres and extreme temperatures. For all the flights so far, the wing has flown in a fixed position on a Gulfstream III jet between these two extremes, to ensure risk is minimal. But for future flights, the wings will be able to change angles while in the air. The breakthrough could also increase fuel efficiency up to 12 per cent, and reduce noise at take-off and landing up to 40 per cent. The wing is shown above bending through its two extremes. The project is a collaboration between Nasa, the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) and FlexSys Inc from Ann Arbor Michigan. Credit: FlexSys . Figures suggest the breakthrough could increase fuel efficiency up to 12 per cent, and reduce noise at take-off and landing up to 40 per cent, compared to traditional wing flaps (one shown on a Boeing 737) A Transformer-style ‘flying car’ being developed by an Arizona company could soon spell the end of runways. The company’s vision is to build a vehicle with four rotors that allow it to take to the air anywhere like a helicopter - and then switch to fly like a normal plane. While this ‘SkyCruiser’ vehicle is still some way from development, the technology could soon become a reality in a functioning prototype dubbed the ‘SkyProwler’. The SkyProwler has four horizontal propellers that allow it to perform vertical take-offs and landings, and to hover in mid-air. ‘We are thrilled to have accomplished all of our flight test goals without encountering any significant technical issues,’ said AFRL Program Manager Pete Flick, from Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio. ‘These flights cap 17 years of technology maturation, beginning with AFRL’s initial Phase 1 SBIR contract with FlexSys, and the technology now is ready to dramatically improve aircraft efficiency for the Air Force and the commercial aviation industry.’ The technology can be fitted to existing airplane wings, so it does not require a complete redesign of current aircraft wings. ‘The completion of this flight test campaign at Armstrong is a big step for Nasa's Environmentally Responsible Aviation Project,’ said ERA project manager Fay Collier. ‘This is the first of eight large-scale integrated technology demonstrations ERA is finishing up this year that are designed to reduce the impact of aviation on the environment.’ It will take years for such a technology to be approved for commercial aircraft, though, so it’s unlikely to be used on planes any time soon. But the cost and fuel economy benefits will be appealing to many if testing continues smoothly.

A motorist known as Mr X who spent five years trying to dodge a £60 speeding fine has been jailed for perjury and perverting the course of justice. The driver, who is named Ashley X after changing his surname by deed poll, was caught on camera driving his Honda sports car at 67mph on a 50mph section of the M11 in Essex in 2009. Instead of coughing up a fixed penalty fine, he initially ignored Essex Police's attempts to confirm who was driving the car before making up a series of stories to shift the blame, Essex Police said. The driver was caught on camera driving his Honda sports car at 67mph on a 50mph section of the M11 . Pc Roy Keyes, from the force's casualty reduction team, said: 'Ashley X was determined to avoid paying the £60 fine and having three penalty points on his licence. 'But for five years he tried to deny the offence and committed two serious offences which ultimately led to him being sent to prison.' X tried to fight the speeding charge in six different courts, concocting various stories including that his cousin was driving, faking a letter from that cousin purportedly confirming this and claiming this cousin had already paid the fine. After being found guilty of failing to provide a driver's details he challenged the verdict at Chelmsford Crown Court and the Court of Appeal but both claims were rejected. When police looked more closely at the case, they found the 'cousin' who X claimed had been driving, and discovered he was in fact a friend, who never owned the car and denied writing any letter admitting that he had been the driver. The driver tried to convince authorities that his cousin was driving the car at the time of the offence . X, from Ruislip, west London, finally admitted perjury and perverting the course of justice at Ipswich Crown Court on Thursday. Judge Martyn Levett sentenced X to nine months imprisonment. He was also ordered to pay costs of £1,200. Essex Police praised the Crown Prosecution Service for its perseverance in bringing the case against the 35-year-old motorist. Do you know Mr X? If so, please call Darren Boyle on (0203) 615 3247 or email darren.boyle@mailonline.co.uk .

Gary Neville believes Manchester United face their toughest test of the season when they visit Premier League leaders Chelsea on Saturday - but feels their current form means they can beat anyone. Louis van Gaal's side have beaten Tottenham, Liverpool and Manchester City in recent weeks to enhance their chances of finishing in the top four and changing what looked like a difficult first campaign for the Dutchman into a relatively successful one. After a memorable 4-2 win over local rivals and reigning champions City on Sunday, United face a stern examination at Stamford Bridge. Gary Neville believes Manchester United have a good chance of beating Chelsea with the form they're in . Neville knows United have played well in recent weeks but admits Van Gaal's system and squad will be pushed to the limit against a Chelsea side looking to move one step closer to the title. 'The tests have been Liverpool and City,' he told Press Association Sport. 'This is another test. They have proven themselves, but this is the best team in the country and to go to Stamford Bridge is the toughest test. Louis van Gaal's side have performed admirably this season and are all but guaranteed Champions League . 'The performances from United in the past month have been absolutely outstanding in any season. 'Forget the fact that in this season they are not going to win the league, in any season the level of performance they have shown in this last month has been of a hard standard.' After a stuttering start to his reign, Van Gaal has answered his critics by finding a formation that suits the players at his disposal and Neville reckons a top-four place is all but sewn up. United dispatched of Manchester City on Sunday as they extended their league lead over their rivals . 'We were always very fixed in our formation,' the England coach said of his time at Old Trafford. 'Louis van Gaal through necessity has had to change his formation to get different people in at different times. In the last four weeks he has settled into a 4-3-3. It has worked really well and the players looked comfortable in the system. 'He said at the start of the season that his team would get better, they always get better and he has stuck to his word. He said they would be in the Champions League and I think he will be correct.'

A rare black flamingo amazed bird watchers when it was spotted feeding among a group of the traditionally pink birds in Cyprus. The migratory bird was spotted at a salt lake near the British RAF base at Akrotiri on the island's south coast close to the resort city of Limassol. Normally, the graceful birds have a pink hue caused by the levels of beto-Carotene in their diet. Scroll down for video . Ruffling feathers: The unusual black flamingo was spotted near the coastal city of Limassol on Cyprus by birdwatchers . Alexia Perdiou, the base's assistant environment officer, said it could be one-of-a-kind. 'Of course we are all very excited because we believe it could be the only flamingo of its kind in the world and very little is known about it,' she said. 'We are expecting a lot of visitors over the next few days.' A black flamingo was reportedly last spotted in Israel in 2014 and aside from its colour, it is no different to the hundreds of pink flamingos which flock to the salt lakes of Cyprus every spring. Experts believe a rare genetic irregularity known as "melanism" can generate more melanin than usual, turning a flamingo's feathers a dark colour. Migrating: The bird looked very healthy despite its unusual hue and is believed to be heading to Turkey to breed . Martin Hellicar of the conservation group BirdLife Cyprus said the black-coloured flamingo was not unique, though acknowledged they were uncommon in the Mediterranean. He said it was probably migrating to its breeding area in Turkey after spending the winter elsewhere. He added that the flamingo stopped on its journey in the salt lake to feed on brine shrimp.

Researchers sketching out a 'wiring diagram' for rat brains have discovered its structure is organized like the Internet. They say the animal's cerebral cortex is 'like a mini-Internet'. The first comprehensive picture of how neurons connect to one another found local networks of neurons layered like the shells in a Russian nesting doll. The Internet has countless local area networks that then connect with larger, regional networks and ultimately with the backbone of the Internet. The brain operates in a similar way, the researchers found. 'The cerebral cortex is like a mini-Internet,' said Larry Swanson, professor at the USC Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences, and corresponding author of a paper on the discovery. 'The Internet has countless local area networks that then connect with larger, regional networks and ultimately with the backbone of the Internet. 'The brain operates in a similar way.' The study was published on April 6 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. For years, scientists looking for clues to brain function through its structure focused on what could be seen — the brain's lobes, grooves and folds. Two local networks — one governing vision and learning, and another tapped into bodily concerns like muscle and organ function — make up the inner shell of the rat's cerebral cortex. Two others — one governing smell, and another that assembles and makes sense of the information from the other three networks — make up the outer shell. This means that certain flows of information are genetically 'hardwired' into the brain, Swanson said. The discovery is the result of a massive, labor-intensive effort to organize 40 years' worth of data from peer-reviewed research articles detailing connections in rat brains. 'The data was already out there; it just needed to be compiled into a more useful format,' Swanson said. Lead author Mihail Bota of USC Dornsife created the database from more than 16,000 reports of connections, which he weighted both on the strength of the connection and the reliability of the methodology used to discover it. The process took more than 4,000 hours to complete, yielding a database that is free and available. Olaf Sporns of Indiana University subsequently performed a network analysis of the connections. A color-coded flat map of 1,923 rat cortical association macroconnections (RCAMs). The team used studies of rat brains because of the sheer volume of detailed information available. Swanson believes that the database can create an important link between human brain studies — which are largely done as non-invasive functional magnetic resonance imaging scans — and rat brain studies, which can be more in-depth. 'Having a wiring diagram for the brain will allow knowledge to flow both ways between human and animal studies,' Swanson said. 'This allows us to take theories from human brain scan studies and experimentally verify them in animals, and discoveries made in animal studies are likely to have an analogue in humans.' 'We're bridging the gap between our work in rat brains and the Stevens Institute's work with human brains,' Swanson said. 'If we can connect these two veins of neuroscience in a concrete and meaningful way, then we can dramatically expand our reservoir of information about the brain practically overnight.' In the future, Swanson hopes to be able to expand the neural-connection map of the rat brain beyond the cerebral cortex, some day mapping the entire nervous system.

A Mayfair mansion that was once the site of a milking parlour has gone on the market for £25million. The four-bedroom property in central London's Farm Street has all the trappings of modern luxury with an indoor swimming pool, gym, lift, cinema room and roof terrace. One hundred and fifty years ago however it was used to house cows for milking on one of London's busiest trading streets. Originally used as a milking parlour, it became a depot before being knocked down in the 19th Century. In 2011 developers took over the site and demolished the house to make way for the plush mansion which now sits in its place. At 8,139 square ft, it is on the market for £25million. A newly-built mansion that was constructed on the site of a former milking parlour in Mayfair has gone on the market for £25million . The house is decorated throughout with modern furnishings and plush carpets. Among its features is a private lift and guest cloakroom . A grand piano sits in the marbled hall on one of the floor's houses. A 14-piece dining table is also featured in the luxury dining room . An indoor swimming pool now takes the place of what once would have been a milking shed in the 18th and 19th Century . A cinema room is one of the many modern features in the property. It was built in 2011 after developers knocked down the original structure . Impressive artwork throughout the house adorns its walls. It is being sold for £25million by estate agents Wetherell and Knight Frank . An opulent 14-place dining table is found on the first floor of the luxury property which also has its own lift . London's milking parlours date back to Tudor times, with Farm Street serving as hub of agricultural trade for years. Cows were brought there from the grazing areas of Peckham, Holland Park and Hampstead heath and sold to local butchers. Alongside the parlours was an abattoir and pub, the Punch Bowl, which remains. Guy Ritchie and Madonna bought the pub while they were married and it quickly became a celebrity favourite. Mr Ritchie sold it in 2013 to the Alexander Langlands Pearse. Inside the modern mansion are four bedrooms including a master suite which occupies the entire second floor. The lower ground floors feature a swimming pool complex with mosaic-lined pool, steam room, gym, shower and changing facilities, kitchenette, guest cloakroom and media room. It also has a private lift, marble flooring, a sweeping spiral staircase and a dining room which can seat 14. Speaking of the property, Peter Wetherell, chief executive of Wetherell, said: 'This recently built house is an outstanding example of contemporary living in historic Mayfair at its very best. 'As the location of Mayfair’s dairy, the interesting and unusual history allowed for the construction of a house on a commercial depot site, without the usual restrictions of historic listing controls. 'The result is an open flowing family house providing spacious rooms and generous ceiling heights rarely found in historic Mayfair.' The house has four bedrooms which all come with their own en suite bathrooms and is set over four floors. It was built in 2011 . One of the four bedrooms in the house is finished with sleek white, grey and black furniture and soft furnishings throughout . Another of the guest rooms in the luxury mansion furnished in cream and peach. The house has been described by estate agents as a 'flowing family house' One of the double bathrooms in the house has a deep marble bath, his and her's sinks and a large, walk-in shower . The property's master suite takes up the entire second floor with a huge bedroom and 'living space' which features a stunning fireplace . The dressing room in the master suite boasts high-gloss white wardrobes, fluffy white carpet and a grey bench for resting . An enormous jacuzzi bath in the middle of the master suite's bathroom, with his and her sinks and a walk in double shower beyond it . Another of the luxurious bathrooms is fitted with a black and grey bath and shower. Experts said the property was an example of 'contemporary living in historic Mayfair' A courtyard in the property offers another outdoor seating. Part of its tiles have been replaced with glass exposing the leisure complex beneath . The luxury home also has a steam room adorned in shimmer silver mosaic and several outdoor spaces for residents to take in sun . A sweeping sun terrace on the building's roof where residents and guests can take in views of the historic Mayfair village . A sleek white and brown kitchen leads out to a sun-trapped patio on one of the house's floors. There is also a kitchenette elsewhere . An aerial view of the staircase shows the house's four floors, with golden sculptures found on shelves the whole way down . A fully-equipped gym has also been installed in the basement of the house and even has a flat-screen TV fitted on a wall of mirrors . High quality finishings are seen throughout the property which is found in one of London's most exclusive areas .

The former milking parlour on Mayfair's Farm Street has four bedrooms, an indoor swimming pool and roof terrace . It was once the site of a dairy where farmers housed cows for milking on the busy central London market street . The original property was knocked down and replaced with the plush, modern mansion four years ago .

Zara Phillips saw her hopes of success at the Rolex Kentucky three-day event disappear in frustrating fashion on Friday. Phillips had travelled to the United States with her London 2012 and 2014 World Equestrian Games Great Britain team silver medal-winning ride High Kingdom. But Phillips, The Queen's granddaughter, withdrew before her scheduled dressage test at Kentucky Horse Park. Zara Phillips has had to pull out of the Kentucky three-day event after High Kingdom suffered an injury . Phillips won silver in the team Equestrian section of the Eventing at London 2012 on board High Kingdom . The horse was being tacked up in his stable ahead of its early evening test, UK time, when he kicked out and suffered a cut leg. High Kingdom was then taken to the dressage warm-up area, but the decision was taken to withdraw him in the horse's best interests. Kentucky is the first of this year's major competitions and Phillips had aimed high with High Kingdom there, although the horse is also entered for the Mitsubishi Motors Badminton Horse Trials, which begin on May 7. Phillips, 33, was due to make her debut in the Kentucky competition, which is one of six global four-star events along with Badminton, Burghley, Luhmuhlen in Germany, Pau and Adelaide. PHillips, The Queen's granddaughter, was due to make her Kentucky debut, but will now miss out . Great Britain eventing team boss Yogi Breisner, who is in Kentucky, has not ruled out the possibility of High Kingdom featuring at Badminton, depending on how the horse recovers and following a long flight home. "High Kingdom unfortunately had a kick in the stables and cut himself, which led to him being withdrawn," he told Press Association Sport. "He is still entered at Badminton, so we will see how he is when he gets back to the UK."

Celebrity residents and good commuter links to the City have made Esher in Surrey the country’s number one income tax hotspot, research shows. Those living in the Esher and Walton parliamentary constituency – home to Gary Lineker, Frank Lampard, Mick Hucknall and Chris Tarrant – have seen average income tax bills jump by 8 per cent in a year. They paid the most income tax in 2012/13, with bills averaging £16,900, almost four times the national average of £4,363, a study by accountancy group UHY Hacker Young found. Celebrity residents and good commuter links to the City have made Esher in Surrey the country’s number one income tax hotspot, research shows . The average annual income is £59,600 - more than £30,000 above the average gross annual salary. Like Esher, the other top five highest income tax-paying constituencies – Chesham and Amersham; Windsor; Beaconsfield; and Dorking and Leatherhead – are in the Home Counties and within an hour’s commute of London. Only one of the top ten constituencies, Tatton in Cheshire, is outside the South-East. Covering Alderley Edge, Wilmslow and Knutsford, the area is another celebrity favourite, attracting residents such as Sir Alex Ferguson, Rio Ferdinand and Andy Cole. At the other end of the list, Stoke-on-Trent Central had the lowest bills, at £2,100 - eight times lower than those in Esher. Those living in the Esher and Walton parliamentary constituency – home to Gary Lineker (left) and Frank Lampard (right) – have seen average income tax bills jump by 8 per cent in a year . The other top five highest income tax-paying constituencies include Windsor (castle above) and Beaconsfield . Mark Giddens, of UHY Hacker Young, said: 'The combination of a relatively high density of high earning celebrities and easy transport links to the City of London for those working in financial services, mean that many parliamentary constituencies across the South-East, and Esher in particular, are a real hotspot for the taxman. 'With the tax rate at 45% for the highest earners, pockets are clearly being created - mainly, but not solely, around the capital - where income tax bills are far outstripping the national average. ‘Whether residents of Esher will relish the title of most highly income-taxed area of Britain is doubtful.’

Bills averaged £16,900 - almost four times the national average of £4,363 . People also paid more in Windsor, Beaconsfield, Chesham and Amersham . Stoke-on-Trent Central had the lowest bills at £2,100 per year .

A woman has been arrested after she allegedly broke into a home on Martha's Vineyard, lived inside for at least a week and sold items belonging to the owners in a yard sale. Michelle Filkins, 44, of West Wareham has been charged with breaking and entering, larceny over $250, and malicious destruction of property. She was discovered at the Court Street property in Edgartown by owner Mark Conklin on April 17. Michelle Filkins, 44, of West Wareham has been charged with breaking and entering, larceny over $250, and the malicious destruction of property after she was arrested on April 17 . Filkins was arrested on April 17 after owner Mark Conklin found her sitting in his summer home . According to the police report, Conklin found Filkins sitting in his living room of the property estimated to be worth $800,000. When he confronted her she claimed that she owned the house. She then fled in a gray Nissan pickup truck when Conklin called the police at about 8 a.m. When police arrived, they discovered a large glass window to the left side of the front door had been broken and covered by a blanket, reports The Boston Globe. Filkins was arrested several hours later after she attempted to get back into the home thinking that Conklin had left. She is next scheduled to be in court on May 14. A construction worker in the neighborhood has told police that he saw Filkins outside with items from the home, and that she appeared to be having a yard sale or giving the items away. According to a post on the department's Facebook page, items missing include four deck chairs from Crate & Barrel, a Weber grill, two side tables from Ethan Allen, one Ann Chase lamp, two lamps from Crate & Barrel, two framed posters, various pots, pans, and linens, and a painting by the owner. Police are asking anyone who received items from the home to return them to the Edgartown police department. 'If in fact you did purchase something you are a victim as well and EPD will assist you in seeking restitution via the court prosecution of this case,' the police department said on Facebook. Anyone with information can also contact the police department at 508-627-4343. Police are asking anyone who received items from the home - including a lamp and a painting - to return them .

Ed Miliband's proposed change in the rules on 'non-doms' would cost Britain billions, experts warned last night. The Labour leader announced plans to overhaul Britain's non-domicile regime, which allows 116,000 foreigners and people with foreign links to pay tax only on money that they bring into Britain. Mr Miliband initially suggested he would 'abolish' non-dom status – but it later emerged that Labour is effectively proposing a time limit on it of between two and five years. Scroll down for video . Crowd-pleaser? Ed Miliband joins crowds in Warwick yesterday, where he announced his non-dom plans . The Tories pointed out that a five-year grace period would exempt up to six in every ten non-doms from the crackdown anyway, because many non-doms do not stay longer than five years. Announcing the policy, Labour aides suggested the change in the rules, which date back to the 18th century, would raise as much as £1billion. But tax advisers immediately disputed this, saying driving non-doms away would in fact cost the Treasury significant sums. With non-doms paying around £8billion in tax and national insurance a year, it is claimed that Labour's proposal could in fact create a huge hole in Treasury coffers. Within hours of announcing the policy, Shadow Chancellor Ed Balls was forced to admit he did not actually know how much extra cash the measure would raise. In a further embarrassment, it later emerged that just three months ago he himself had said such a move would be counter-productive – saying it would result in the country losing money. In a video that emerged yesterday, Mr Balls can be seen telling a local BBC radio station that abolishing the status altogether 'will probably end up costing Britain money because some people will leave the country'. Despite this, the surprise move by Labour wrongfooted the Conservatives, who took several hours to craft a coherent response. The issue of non-doms is a sensitive one for the Tories, because Mr Miliband has claimed David Cameron is close to 'dodgy donors', including non-doms, who support the party. Labour has repeatedly attempted to characterise the Tories as friends of the rich – despite official figures showing the best-off are paying more tax than they did under the last Labour government. Last night, sources close to Chancellor George Osborne indicated he would consider scrapping the right to pass on non-dom status to heirs. Last year, Mr Osborne announced a new £90,000 annual charge for people who are non-domiciled in the UK for tax purposes but have lived here for 17 of the past 20 years. Tory officials said it was more effective to hit non-doms with an annual levy than to 'tinker' with the status. The Chancellor said: 'Labour's policy is a total shambles. You have Ed Balls admitting it will cost Britain money and then when you look at the small print it turns out the majority of non-doms won't be affected.' In a speech at the University of Warwick, Mr Miliband insisted non-dom status was an 'arcane' rule dating back to the time of William Pitt the Younger, allowing a 'few people at the top' to 'operate under different rules'. 'There are people who live here in Britain like you and me, work here in Britain like you and me, are permanently settled here in Britain, like you and me, were brought up here, but just aren't required to pay taxes like you and me,' he said. Graham Aaronson QC, who chaired an independent committee which drew up new rules against tax avoidance, said the non-dom regime did need reform. He said he had advised the Treasury two years ago the right to pass it on to heirs should be scrapped, and suggested he also favoured removing the right for British citizens to claim it. But he was scathing about Labour's proposals, which he said would cost the country dear. 'It's either unbelievable deception or the man is completely pig ignorant,' he told the Daily Mail. 'I couldn't believe what I was listening to. This is why politicians have such a bad name. Mr Miliband was describing non-doms born here, brought up here, who go to school here, use our hospitals. The audience would have thought that's what a non-dom is. But it's a very small number. There are those that live abroad, their main family life, home and base but they choose to live in the UK for a month and a half a year. They pay taxes when they're here, they may employ people. It's ridiculous to treat them the same way.' Jolyon Maugham, the QC who advised Labour on its plans for reform, conceded the policy could lead to a flight of wealthy taxpayers from Britain. Yet the Labour supporter was cited by both Mr Miliband and Mr Balls as an independent expert who supports the policy. The QC, who admitted the Tories have a 'terrific record' on squeezing tax dodging, said his own calculations suggested the measure was likely to raise about £1billion, but there was a risk of a 'negative tax yield'. Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg defended the non-dom rule, saying it allowed people to come to Britain, some of whom were not 'massively rich'. Simon Walker, of the Institute of Directors, said: 'It's very unclear what additional revenue would be raised, but the UK's international reputation would be put at risk.' Nicholas Leeming, of estate agents Jackson-Stops, said: 'The Labour Party is out to target the wealth creators in this country and will effectively close down London to international businesses and investors.'

Experts warn Ed Miliband's changes for non-doms would cost millions . The Labour leader initially suggested he would abolish non-dom status . But it later emerged he is effectively only proposing a time limit on it . It allows those with foreign links to be taxed only on money entering Britain .

Andy Erlam has announced he will stand to be the next Mayor of Tower Hamlets - telling voters it is a chance to 'change everything for the better' The grandfather who won a High Court victory to kick out the crooked mayor‎ of Tower Hamlets yesterday announced he will stand as a 'Martin Bell'-style anti-corruption independent candidate in his place. Andy Erlam pledged to end years of 'Rotten Borough' politics. Last week Mr Erlam led four ordinary voters who defied threats, financial ‎ruin and official apathy to have Lutfur Rahman unseated from office by an electoral court. Rahman - who police afraid of being branded 'racist' failed to charge - was found guilty of rigging his election for mayor in May 2014 by a systematic campaign to steal votes. Yesterday Mr Erlam, 64, a retired film maker, said:‎ 'Since last week, many people have asked me to stand. 'I've given it a lot of thought and have decided ‎to go for it. 'For many years, the people living here have suffered under a corrupt leadership. 'Unless someone stands up to it, there is a danger that Rahman's cronyism and corruption will just continue in another form.' Rahman was banned from office for five years but has many acolytes who are not prevented from standing. In putting his name forward for the election on June 11, Mr Erlam is following in the footsteps of Martin Bell, the former war reporter who stood as an 'anti sleaze' candidate and beat MP Neil Hamilton in Tatton in 1997. ‎Rahman, branded a 'pathological liar' and cheat who 'played the race card on every occasion' by Electoral judge Richard Mawrey QC, diverted millions of pounds from groups like the Alzheimer's Society to Muslim organisations, some with extremist links. Lutfur Rahman, pictured, had the Mayoral office stripped from his after an electoral court found him guilty of rigging his election. He was branded a 'pathological liar' and a cheat happy to 'play the race card' at every turn . Andy Erlam (centre) was one of four petitioners including Angela Moffat (left) and Azmal Hussein (right) who accused Rahman of electoral fraud. Their 'enormous courage' for taking the case forward was praised . Tower Hamlets was so corrupt the government sent in independent commissioners to run it. Mr Erlam said: ‎'The entire local government machine needs to be transformed and with government Commissioners in place, it's the chance in our lifetimes to change everything for the better. 'If elected I will shut down (council-run newsletter) East End Life, the Pravda of Rahman, end the "cult of personality" at the town hall and investigate and change every aspect of the council with the many good officers who I know have been frustrated and blocked for years.' 'This is not the end, this is only the beginning.' Mr Erlam has criticised the Met for 'not investigating election fraud properly, protecting Rahman and for its failure to, even now, launch a serious investigation at the town hall.' He added:‎ 'I am standing to give the voters of Tower Hamlets a choice. If elected, I will lead the transformation of the London Borough of Tower Hamlets and nothing will stop me. The people will decide.' ‎In court last week, the judge hailed the ‘enormous courage’ of Tower Hamlets residents Mr Erlam, 64, Angela Moffat, 47, Azmal Hussein, 63, and Debbie Simone, 44. He said they had faced a ‘potentially devastating’ legal bill if they had lost, adding: ‘They knew Mr Rahman would deploy all his resources to defeat them and they would be portrayed as racists and Islamophobes. And so it proved. The Petitioners have been duly vilified - but they have hung in there. They have been vindicated.’

A taxi driver has entered the Chinese record books by taking 30,000 selfies with passengers. Teng Jiazhi or 'Uncle Teng,' from Shenyang, North China, came up with the unique tipping system ten years ago when he picked up a couple of tourists in -30C. ‘They had been standing in the cold for more than an hour for a taxi' he told reporters from People’s Daily Online. Popular: Teng Jiazhi poses with three passengers in one of the thousands of selfies taken in his cab . Happy snappy: Taxi driver 'Uncle Teng' and his passengers are all smiles for the cab camera . 'When they got in my car, they kept thanking me and offered tips. But I could not take the extra money,’ said Uncle Teng. ‘Before they dropped off, they wanted to take a photo with me. The gratitude they had was very comforting and that photo was the first selfie I took with my passenger.’ Since then the cabby, who starts work at 3am each day, has kept a camera in his car and captured thousands of happy passengers. On average, he picks up as many as eighty passengers a day and at least twenty take selfies with him. The 58-year-old then uploads them to his page on a popular Chinese social media website, making him one of the most recognised faces in the region. Passengers have even commented on how his smile always looks the same and Uncle Teng said it is because it comes from within.

It takes just a chat, some sing along or a joke to make them happy again. ‘A few years ago, an upset young lady got on my taxi and she refused to take a selfie with me. So I started chatting with her. 'I found out that she had a fight with her mum so I sang her a folk song about how mothers always worry. She started sobbing after I finished my song and immediately called her mum to say sorry. 'Before she dropped off, she gracefully took a selfie with me and told me that it was a good day.’ Smile: Passengers pose with phones and balloons in a couple of the thousands of selfie photos Uncle Teng has gathered .

He challenged himself to get 10,000 selfies for ‘Smile Shenyang’, part of the National Games of the People’s Republic of China that was held in 2013. ‘I have met many taxi passengers who recognised me from the news. I particularly enjoy people calling me Uncle Teng because it is such an intimate name.’ He handpicked 6,402 selfies from his collection for the ‘Shanghai Big World Jinisi Record’ featuring passengers came from all over the world and hopes his record will let people see what a happy place Shenyang is.

Celtic's Treble dream died on Sunday with striker Leigh Griffiths pointing the finger of blame squarely at the officials after his side's shock Scottish Cup semi-final defeat by Inverness. A blatant Josh Meekings handball in the box was missed by referee Steven McLean and his team, particularly assistant Alan Muir, at the end of the first half with the Parkhead club left to rue the decision not to award a penalty and dispense a red card. A goal down at the time, Inverness fought back and eventually emerged victorious following a pulsating period of extra-time and the Celtic players could do little to hide their fury after the match. Celtic striker Leigh Griffiths has a shot at goal during the Scottish Cup semi-final against Inverness . Griffiths heads the ball, which is deflected clearly off the hand of Inverness' Josh Meekings (left) on Sunday . Despite numerous appeals, no penalty or red card was given for Meekings' handball and Inverness won . 'We have a lot of disappointed lads inside that dressing room — we've been robbed,' said Griffiths who, more than an hour after the final whistle, was still struggling to contain his own disbelief and anger. 'It was very disappointing. We had a chance to go and make history. We didn't get the result in the end.' Celtic were a Virgil van Dijk goal to the good at the time of the Meekings incident but the game was then turned on its head in the second half as Celtic goalkeeper Craig Gordon was sent off for a foul on Marley Watkins. Greg Tansey equalised with the resultant spot-kick and suddenly John Hughes' men were in ascendancy. With the teams level at full-time, Edward Ofere and John Guidetti swapped goals in extra-time before David Raven grabbed a 117th-minute winner — leaving the Highlanders jubilant and their opponents distraught. Parkhead manager Ronny Deila had insisted he need not say anything about the penalty incident. Scott Brown, meanwhile, stalked past with a face like thunder, lightning and Force 10 hurricane all rolled into one angry swirling mass, damned near taking the door off its hinges as he made a dramatic exit from the depths of the national stadium. 'I have asked the centre-half in the second half if it has hit his hand or his face - and he said it hit his hand 100 per cent, so in my book that's a penalty and a red card,' continued Griffiths. 'We have probably the best penalty taker in the league in Kris Commons, who I am sure would go and tuck it away to put us 2-0 up. They'd have been down to 10 men and it would have been a mountain for them to come back. Celtic's Aleksandar Tonev (centre) is challenged by Marley Watkins (left) and Edward Ofere (right) on Sunday . Celtic captain Scott Brown (left) has words with referee Steven McLean during the Scottish Cup semi-final . 'I knew it was a penalty. I think everyone in the ground knew it was a penalty. The second half has been very lucky. 'He is the one who said it hit him in the face (the additional assistant ref). I asked the ref why he didn't give the penalty and he said the assistant behind the goal said it hit him in the face. I don't know what angle he is looking from because everyone else could see it was a penalty. 'He said the referee behind the goal said it hit him in the face and there is nothing I can do about that now. It is a game-changing decision. 'When you have officials behind the goals, they need to be doing their job. If he thinks that's him in on the face ...? 'I don't really want to say too much about the officials because I'll end up in trouble. But it's a massive, massive decision and it's cost us the game. 'Everybody was so content that we were going to win the league, we already have a trophy (the League Cup) in the bag. Everyone was saying the Scottish Cup was practically a given. But we knew we had to come here and do a job - and it's just unlucky that we never managed to get it done.' Griffiths attempts an acrobatic shot at goal during the Scottish Cup semi-final on Sunday against Inverness . As much as Griffiths was nursing a personal grievance over being denied yet another Hampden semi-final goal, the former Hibs star felt for manager Deila, a man who has been so open about his desire to win a Treble – and his belief in this team's ability to do so. Celtic had made no bones about their determination to succeed where so many had failed, backing themselves to have the skill and strength to get the job done, whatever obstacles they might have to overcome. 'I think the gaffer is the most disappointed person out of everyone,' said the Griffiths. 'He'd only have been the third Celtic manager to have won a Treble. 'He would have made history and as players we would have become legends. But it' s difficult to do that. I said it during the week that when you are that close to winning a Treble, the games get harder. Inverness stood in our way and did a job. 'Now we have to go again and pick ourselves up for the rest of the season. We have a massive game at Dens Park on Wednesday. Dundee will be up for it, we've just played 120 minutes in a semi-final. We have three days and then we have to play Dundee at a difficult venue. But we need three points. 'This will fire us up. We aren't far away from clinching the league now. We have two hard games in the next week at Dens and Tannadice. If we go there and pick up three points from each, we will be in a real good position.' From Treble to Double, just like that. Celtic will be weary on Wednesday, certainly. But Dundee should certainly beware some kind of angry backlash. And the Dens Park ground staff may want to reinforce some of the doors. Just in case Brown takes the storm with him. Celtic pair Tonev (left) and John Guidetti look dejected after their side drops out of the Cup on Sunday .

The 'battle of Holland' was nothing short of sensational as Raymond van Barnevald defeated World No 1 Michael van Gerwen - earning the bragging rights and giving himself a fighting chance of qualifying for the showdown at the 02 Arena. Robin van Persie was an interested spectator as he watched the bout on a camel TV and showed his support for his fellow Dutchmen on his Instagram page. The reigning Premier League Darts champion started well and found himself 2-0 up, before Van Gerwen began to score high and leveled the legs up. Raymond van Barneveld was in formidable form as he won 'the battle of Holland' against Michael van Gerwen . But Van Barneveld lived up to his legendary status, with scintillating finishing to ease past his Dutch counterpart, 7-3, and end his previously unbeaten record. Phil Taylor ended his losing run after beating Dave Chisnall and drawing with Stephen Bunting but the 16-time world champion will be disappointed he didn't finish off 'The Bullet' - earning himself maximum points. The 54-year-old rampaged to victory over Chisnall, taking the contest, 7-3, and recovering from back-to-back defeats in his two previous outings. Robin van Persie took to Instagram to show that he was watching his fellow Dutchmen go head-to-head . The Manchester United forward is currently out injured but looks set to leave Louis van Gaal's side . Bunting and Taylor were involved in arguably the match of the night, with both men involved in a quite incredible ending, where they threw a sequence of wayward darts before Bunting hit double one and making sure he took home a point. Adrian Lewis won his third match on the bounce, beating Bunting, 7-2, and condemning his opponent to a heavy defeat. 'Jackpot' boosted his chances of making the knockout stage with a convincing victory as he proved why he's still a player to fear in the Premier League. Phil Taylor will be disappointed he couldn't finsh off Stephen Bunting considering the chances he had . Adrian Lewis showed that he should not yet be written off with an impressive win over Bunting . Gary Anderson produced a sterling fightback to earn himself a draw against James Wade - sending the Scottish crowd wild as he hit double 20 to level it at 6-6. Wade had a number of chances to finish off the tie but was out of sorts in the final four legs, giving the 'Flying Scotsman' a glimmer hope - and he made no mistake. Anderson's point could be crucial - come the end of the competition - when the top four will meet to decide who will the Premier League 2015 champion. Gary Anderson fought back form 6-2 down to earn himself a valuable draw against James Wade in Aberdeen .

A California judge has reduced a child rapist's mandatory 25-year sentence down to only 10 - saying anything longer would be 'cruel and unusual punishment'. Superior Court Judge M. Marc Kelly told an Orange County jury that 20-year-old Kevin Jonas Rojano-Nieto 'did not intend to harm' the three-year-old girl he raped at his family home in June. The judge said that he was sure that although Rojano-Nieto sodomized the girl and covered her mouth so she couldn't scream out, 'there was no violence or callous disregard for the victim's well-being'. Controversial: Superior Court Judge M. Marc Kelly (seen here with a colleague in 2010) has handed a 10-year sentence to a 20-year-old child rapist. The mandatory sentence should be 25-years to life . Judge Kelly also said Rojano-Nieto, 'inexplicably became sexually aroused but did not appear to consciously intend to harm the victim.' Prosecutor have said they will appeal the controversial decision and will be pushing for the minimum sentence of 25-years to life to be reinstated. Rojano-Nieto was found guilty on December 3 of raping the girl who wandered into a garage where he was playing video games. According to the court news service, Rojano-Nieto said he became aroused by the girl and pulled her pants down to rape her during the sickening attack. While this was going on, he could apparently hear her mother calling out for her, so covered her mouth so she couldn't scream back. The girl told her mother after the assault that she was in pain and her mother called the police who found injuries consistent with rape. Rapist: Kevin Jonas Rojano-Nieto has been sentenced to 10-years behind bars for the rape of a 3-year-old girl . “Although serious and despicable, this does not compare to a situation where a pedophilic child predator preys on an innocent child,” Superior Court Judge M. Marc Kelly said according to KTLA. Deputy District Attorney Whitney Bokosky said she disagrees and will appeal. She said that Rojano-Nieto knew what he was doing was wrong because he covered the girl's mouth during the rape so she couldn't call out.

Superior Court Judge M. Marc Kelly handed Kevin Jonas Rojano-Nieto a 10-year sentence . The mandatory sentence Rojano-Nieto should have received was 25-years to life . The State of California has said that it will appeal Judge Kelly's decision .

A piano teacher accused of sexually assaulting an underage student killed himself outside a New Hampshire courthouse hours before his case was declared a mistrial, authorities say. John Goodwin, of Atkinson, shot himself near his car outside the Rockingham County Superior Courthouse in Brentwood on Friday. He was airlifted to a hospital, where he died from his injuries. The jury was not aware of what had happened outside the courthouse when they decided they could not reach a verdict in the 75-year-old's case, according to New England Cable News. John Goodwin, 75, killed himself outside of Rockingham County Superior Courthouse on Friday morning while jurors were deliberating claims that Goodwin had sexually assaulted an underage student . Prosecutors said that Goodwin, who pleaded not guilty, repeatedly sexually assaulted an 11-year-old student from 2002 to 2005. The former student testified he didn't come forward until 2013 because he was embarrassed, according to WMUR. Goodwin's lawyer, Joe Welsh, acknowledged his client was 'touchy-feely,' but said he didn't commit a crime. 'He did hug his student, rubbed his back, massage,' said Welsh. 'It's not a crime. Whether it's appropriate, that's different.' Goodwin's trial began Monday. The jury had been deliberating for two hours when Goodwin shot himself around 11am.

Nearly 500 British holidaymakers were stranded overnight on an impounded cruise ship in Lisbon harbour after its owners were served with a summons for an allegedly unpaid debt. The passengers coming towards the end of a 15 night cruise became the unwitting pawns in a legal wrangle between a former crew member and the owners of the MV Azores. The ship had been set to leave Lisbon at 7pm on Tuesday night with its 489 passengers heading back to Bristol Avonmouth after a round-trip tour that took in La Coruna in Spain, the Azores, and Madeira. But that was scuppered when lawyers slapped a court order on the ship over an 'unresolved' and 'historic' financial wrangle. The harbour master then refused to let the ship leave for Bristol. Scroll down for video . Stranded: 489 British holidaymakers were stuck in Lisbon on the MV Azores (file photo) overnight after its owners were served with a summons for an allegedly unpaid debt . Stuck: They were due to leave Lisbon for Bristol at 7pm on Tuesday but lawyers slapped a court order on the ship over an 'unresolved' and 'historic' financial wrangle . The ship is operated by Essex-based Cruise & Maritime Voyages. But the legal dispute was between owners Portuscale Cruise - from which they were chartering the vessel - and one of that company's former staff. The UK cruise firm, which had nothing to do with the financial wrangle, eventually came to an arrangement with Portugese authorities which allowed the ship to sail - 19 hours late - at 2pm Wednesday. It said passengers were kept informed throughout, helped with onward travel arrangements affected by the delay, and given access to a complimentary bar. One stricken passenger sent a text to a relative telling him: 'Can't believe we're stuck in Lisbon, Portugal. 'Our ship has been impounded due to an historical incident which basically means an unpaid debt.' The Madeira-registered 16,144-tonne, 525ft-long MV Azores was built in 1946. It has eight passenger decks and room for 550 passengers in its 227 cabins. Prices for the cruise range from £779 per person for a standard twin inner-cabin, to £4,159 per person for the owner's suite with an ocean view. The average price for the majority of cabins is priced at £1,500 per person. Cruise & Maritime Voyages's commercial director Chris Coates said: 'The delay of the MV Azores overnight in Lisbon related to a historic local issue with the vessel's owning company, Portuscale Cruises from whom Cruise & Maritime Voyages charter the ship using our own crew. Wrangle: The legal dispute was between owners Portuscale Cruise - from which they were chartering the vessel (file photo) - and one of that company's former staff . Going nowhere: The harbour master then refused to let the ship leave the port and passengers eventually arrived back in the UK 19 hours late . 'This dispute involved a previous crewing issue going back to 2014 and was settled first thing this morning. 'But we had to wait for the clearance documentation to be signed off by the local authorities. The ship is now heading en-route back to the UK.' He added: 'On behalf of Cruise & Maritime Voyages, I would like to extend our sincere apologises for the delay and any disruption caused.' Coates said his company, set up in 2010, carries more than 100,000 ocean and river cruise passengers a year and had 'never experienced a delay of this nature before'. Luxurious: The average price for the majority of cabins on the MV Azores is priced at £1,500 per person . The firm's online brochure says of the MV Azores: 'With her handsome profile and a traditional walk around promenade deck, the 16,144grt Portuguese registered Azores is a classic beautifully restored ocean going cruise ship carrying just 550 guests and offers a wide selection of very well appointed and comfortable public lounges and cabin accommodation spanning eight passenger decks serviced by two lifts.' It features a choice of five comfortable lounges and bars including the Calypso main show lounge, plus a nightclub, cinema, casino, shopping boutique, photo shop, library, card and bridge room, fitness and health centre with sauna and massage facilities, an unheated outdoor swimming pool and a marbled reception area. Most cabins enjoy an ocean view and all the private en-suite cabins have a bath with shower, a hairdryer and personal safe, a TV for movies and news and information channels and a fridge with a mini bar facility.

Headmistress: Valerie Rutty stole thousands of pounds raised by her pupils from bake sales and fetes that was supposed to pay for new school kit . A headmistress who stole thousands of pounds raised by her pupils from bake sales and fetes that was supposed to pay for new school kit avoided jail today. Valerie Rutty, of Warrington, Cheshire, altered invoices by increasing the prices of work she had commissioned - then paid the difference between the actual sums into her own bank account by cheque from the school fund. The 60-year-old stole almost £3,500 from the fund raised by parents, teachers and pupils over a period of more than three years at Irlam Primary School in Greater Manchester. The cash was collected by children aged three to 11 and their families through non-uniform days and other fundraisers. It would help pay for extra-curricular days out and gym equipment. But Rutty wrote nine separate cheques into a bank account she shared with her mother between December 2010 and May last year. She was only caught when Salford City Council received an anonymous letter saying she had been stealing from the school accounts. An audit was then carried out and Rutty was suspended from the school in September last year, subsequently losing her £60,000-a-year job. The money was repaid in full last month. At Manchester Crown Court Rutty was handed a four-month prison sentence, suspended for 12 months, and ordered to carry out 70 hours of unpaid work in the community after admitting theft. Theft: The 60-year-old stole almost £3,500 from the fund at Irlam Primary School in Greater Manchester . Juliet Berry, prosecuting, said: ‘The account from which she stole money was entitled the “Irlam Primary School Fund”. ‘This money had been raised by parents and pupils at the school by hosting various events including fetes, non-uniform etc and the purpose of the money was to raise money for school trips, football kits and the like. One teacher revealed how Irlam Primary School is in serious need of more money. In a victim impact statement, a member of staff at the school named only as Mr Hargreaves said: ‘The school is in desperate need of funds to improve the quality of provision for children and staff. ‘The children worked extremely hard to help with this and we are faced with the fact that the money raised has been taken. ‘Members of staff, particularly the deputy headteacher, have been placed under severe personal stress and a great deal of uncertainty and additional work. The feelings of mistrust are perhaps the most damaging effect on the school and staff.’ ‘The money was raised by the children and parents themselves. It wasn’t money from the local authority, so one can understand how parents must feel.’ Marsha Myers, defending, said the case had been a ‘chastening experience’ for her client. Rutty had done a ‘great deal of benefit’ to the school and it achieved ratings of ‘good’ in its last Ofsted report, the court was told. But the judge told Rutty she had 'marred' her career, having previously been someone parents and children ‘would look up to’. Judge Robert Atherton added: ‘You are now 60 and have done a great deal during your life for the benefit of people and you have marred the end of your career over this period of time and that is very sad. ‘These families, parents and children would look up to you as Mrs Rutty, the headmistress, who was doing a very fine job in many respects and now their confidence has gone. 'I can understand the parents’ frustration, annoyance and anger that their money, the money they have raised, has been taken in this way.’ Rutty was also ordered to pay costs of £500. Irlam Primary, a 416-pupil community school, was formed in September 1980, following the amalgamation of an infant and junior school. On its official website, a welcome letter from the school reads: ‘All members of the staff team are committed to developing our vision which is to encourage children to be... responsible citizens who make a positive contribution to society.’

Four teenagers have been caught on camera kicking a rare bird and throwing another out of a window. The gang broke into an aviary and bundled 200 of the animals into sacks and containers around 3.30am on January 12. CCTV showed the men took the birds to a tower block in Walsall, West Midlands, and dumped them on the floor before kicking them and forcing them out of barely open windows. Four teenagers have been caught on camera kicking a rare bird, thought to be in the bag above, and throwing another out of a window in Walsall, West Midlands, on January 12 . The birds were also jammed into drawers, squeezed to death and even chased by a dog, Walsall Magistrates Court heard. One resident reported that a dead bird was posted through his letterbox while others were dropped through windows. Three men and a youth have been convicted of their involvement and will be sentenced next month. Chad Worgan, from Walsall, admitted an offence of receiving stolen goods and causing unnecessary suffering to a protected animal on the basis that he kicked a pigeon. The 19-year-old knew the animals were in the bags and had a 'sick grin across his face' as he appearing to grab one of the perched birds and visibly squeeze it, the court heard. Thomas Knox, from Bloxwich, denied the same charges. A dog belonging to Knox, also 19, was let into the flat to terrorise the birds, it was revealed. Jake Higgs, 23, from Bloxwich, admitted receiving stolen goods but denied causing unnecessary suffering. A 16-year-old from Erdington, Birmingham, also attended but cannot be named for legal reasons. The birds were also jammed into drawers, shoved through barely open windows (above), squeezed to death and even chased by a dog, Walsall Magistrates Court heard . All four were found guilty of the charges after a trial last week. One of the men (above) can be seen with a grin on his face during the attack . All four were found guilty of the charges after a trial last week. Bob Thomas, chairman of the bench, said their actions amounted to 'joint enterprise'. He added: 'They arrive with a dog and are seen to be carrying a variety of bags and containers. These are emptied by them and both a large number of dead and live birds are seen. 'The CCTV shows all of them entering the property together and all playing some part in the birds' suffering. 'We are satisfied that they were all aware of the contents of the bags.' A spokesman for West Midlands Police said: 'The birds were stolen from an aviary in the Brownhills area in the early hours of January 12. 'They were then taken to Dolphin House where they were emptied onto the landing area of the block.' The birds were stolen from rare bird breeder Lee Williams who had built up his collection of rare jays, finches, doves, budgerigars, quails and pigeons over a number of years. In 2008, the dad-of-two considered giving up his passion after 270 animals worth £4,000 were stolen. Speaking at the time, his wife Michelle said: 'This has devastated him. His bird breeding plays a major part of his life.'

Posters promoting a 'straight pride' week at a northeast Ohio university were removed this week after student leaders determined that the message went beyond free speech. Youngstown State University student government leaders said they decided to remove the posters, which were hung on around campus earlier this week, after consulting with university officials. The posters included profanity and promoted the event as a time to not highlight sexual orientation or differences among students. Posters promoting a 'straight pride' week were removed from campus after student leaders said that they went 'way further than a free speech issue' They encouraged students to 'go about your day without telling everyone about how 'different' you are', according to WKBN. The anonymously posted flyers encouraged students to celebrate 'by not annoying the s*** out of everyone about your sexual orientation'. 'Brought to you by the students that are sick of hearing about your LGBT pride,' the posters read. 'Nobody cares about what you think you are, or what you want to have sex with. We have nothing against your sexual orientation. We just don't give a f***.' Campus leaders at the approximately 15,000-student university said that while they believe the posters were meant as satire, the message was inappropriate. 'If you actually read through it, it seemed like it went way further than a free speech issue,' said Student Government President Michael Slavens. 'There were swear words and took it a little further than the average free speech should go.' Student Government vice president Jacob Schriner-Biggs agreed with Slavens. 'When you are talking about minority activism, it is very easy that if you are in the majority to say "well, this sort of activism is not necessary. This sort of zeal in your activism is over the top",' he said. 'For minorities who experience discrimination, that is not the case,' It is believed by student leaders that the posters were satire, but they still missed the point of activism, a statement from the student government says . The posters counter the school's mission to create a diverse campus, university spokesman Ron Cole told WFMJ. Officials are investigating possible student code violations, and disciplinary action may follow. A statement from the student government said while it respects free speech of all students, the posters weren't authorized, contained vulgar language and missed the point of activism. 'When individuals belong to dominant societal cohorts (Caucasian, male, heterosexual, etc.) it is very easy to state "We have nothing against your sexual orientation" and to claim that efforts to raise awareness are "annoying",' it read, according to Gay Star News. The statement continued: 'For minorities who every day face discrimination and marginalization, such efforts are necessary without zeal and persistence, sociology teaches that minority concerns very easily go by the wayside. 'Thus, dismissing the efforts of LGBTQIA students to push for equitable treatment as unnecessary is dangerous because it catalyzes discrimination, whether meant to do so or not.' University officials are investigating into the posters, which were hung anonymously, and disciplinary action may follow .

His turn as Doctor Who was among the shortest incarnations of the Time Lord in the programme’s 52-year-history. But Christopher Eccleston has now suggested he quit the show after falling out with bosses over his decision to play the character with a strong northern accent. The 51-year-old actor, who grew up in Manchester, played the Doctor for just 13 episodes during the first series of the show’s revival in 2005. Scroll down for video . Too northern? Christopher Eccleston (pictured with Billie Piper on Doctor Who) has suggested he quit the show after falling out with show bosses over his decision to play the character with a strong northern accent . He proved a huge hit with fans, but only stayed for one run after falling out with then show boss Russell T Davies. Asked about his controversial departure from the programme, he told Radio Times: ‘I wanted to move him away from RP [received pronunciation] for the first time because we shouldn’t make a correlation between intellect and accent, although that still needs addressing. ‘I hope I’ll be remembered as one of the Doctors. I have no ill feeling towards the character or the series.’ He has previously hinted about a row with the show’s bosses, saying of his tenure in the role: ‘I didn’t agree with the way things were being run, or like the culture that grew up around the series.’ A total of twelve actors have played the Time Lord since the show first began in 1963. They include William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton and Jon Pertwee, and more recently the likes of Paul McGann and Matt Smith. The 51-year-old actor played the Doctor for just 13 episodes in 2005 . The most recent incarnation is played by Scottish actor Peter Capaldi. The first Doctor Who episode was broadcast in November 1963 and the programme now attracts audiences of up to 16 million. The series has been sold to over 200 countries. The third son of working-class parents, Eccleston was brought up in Salford before going on to star in BBC drama series Our Friends in the North in 1996. He has also delivered a withering verdict on privileged actors such as Oscar-winner Eddie Redmayne and Benedict Cumberbatch, claiming an increase in privately-educated stars is leading to ‘a milky, anodyne culture’. He added: ‘I still feel insecure, like a lot of my working-class contemporaries. I had a sense acting wasn’t for me because I’m not educated. I was a skinny, awkward-looking bugger with an accent, as I still am. ‘British society has always been based on inequality, particularly culturally. I’ve lived with it, but it’s much more pronounced now, and it would be difficult for someone like me to come through. ‘You can’t blame Eddie Redmayne [Eton], Benedict Cumberbatch [Harrow] and others taking their opportunities but it will lead to a milky, anodyne culture. To an extent that’s already happened. ‘I confess I don’t watch much film or television drama but I’m aware of the predominance of white, male roles. It’s not just about the working class. There’ s not enough writing for women or people of colour. ‘It frustrates me when they insist on doing all-male Shakespearean productions – a wonderful intellectual exercise, maybe, but it’s outrageous because it’s putting a lot of women out of work.’

Air crash investigators have recovered more body parts from the site where MH17 fell in eastern Ukraine after the Boeing 777 was shot out of the sky nine months ago. The Dutch-led team this week also found personal possessions including jewellery after the plane was downed by a suspected Russian-made BUK missile, killing all 298 passengers and crew on July 17, 2014. In all, 16 containers of fragments of the Malaysia Airlines plane were filled so far this week. Dutch and Malaysian investigators and local authorities examine debris at the MH17 plane crash site . Chilling: MailOnline's photographer spotted the burned and torn passport of loving wife and mother Mabel Anthonysamy Soosai, 45, one of the 298 slaughtered when MH17 was downed over Ukraine on July 17, 2014. Her family in Kuala Lumpur has given MailOnline permission to publish the picture . The investigators searched for body parts and debris at a location that was previously considered unsafe . The finds came several days after MailOnline revealed how possibly key evidence and personal possessions were left lying in fields so long after a crash which shocked the world. MailOnline also found a charred passport of a Malaysian mother killed in the horror. Relatives of Mabel Anthonysamy Soosai, 45, whose husband and son were also killed, called for urgent action to clear the site, return items to bereaved families and bring those responsible for the carnage to justice. 'It broke my heart to see the picture, her passport still in the debris of the plane,' said her brother Clement, 47, in Kuala Lumpur. 'But thank you so much for finding it and telling us about it.' Also spotted at the site by MailOnline were a bracelet made of beads, a pair of sunglasses, ripped clothing and random pages from guidebooks in a reminder that many of the murdered passengers were heading to Kuala Lumpur on holiday. Investigators have renewed their search for body parts and debris in eastern Ukraine this week . A vehicle carries away debris from the site of the plane crash near the village of Grabove, in self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic . Many small parts from the plane - such as controllers for the in-flight entertainment systems - were visible among MH17's burned remains. Investigators say they were prevented from working properly in the locations where MH17 hit the ground due to fierce fighting between pro-Moscow rebels and Ukrainian military forces. The new finds of human remains were collected this week by the Dutch - working with Malaysian, Australian and Ukrainian colleagues - at a site previously inaccessible to the investigators, it was revealed. Head of the Dutch recovery mission Pieter-Jaap Aalbersberg said: 'More remains have been found in both parts of the so-called "burn sites."' Jean Fransman, spokesman for the Dutch Department of Justice, added: 'The mission was again able to recover human remains and personal effects at two sites.' A statement said that 'personal effects were given to the members of the mission by the local population - it was jewellery'. An investigator wheels away parts of debris from the site of the plane crash in eastern Ukraine . Grim: Alongside Mabel's passport, many small parts from the plane - such as controllers for the in-flight entertainment systems - are visible among MH17's charred detritus . Haunting: Personal belongings of victims are still littered around the field - and possibly crucial evidence -because the crash scene hasn't been cleared nine months after the Malaysian Airways flight came down . A local official had told MailOnline how the 'smell of death' hung over the area nine months after the crash . The latest search operation had resumed yesterday after being halted for winter, and centred around the Petropavlivka, some 10 kilometres (6.25 miles) west of Grabove and Granovo where most of the debris fell. A local official had told MailOnline how the 'smell of death' hung over the area nine months after the crash. Officials of the rebel Donetsk People's Republic were also at the site during the search which will last several weeks subject to a ceasefire holding in the region. 'A group of Dutch and Malaysian experts is working in the DPR,' said Aleksey Kostrubitskiy, local emergencies minister. 'Today 10 per cent of the area - two places where fragments had fallen and there was fire - was worked over. 'Sixteen containers of fragments have been loaded. 'Units of the [DPR] emergencies ministry will go there every day and 10 staffers of the emergencies ministry will be involved.' The Dutch-led team was forced to leave the crash site in August amid shooting close to the crash site. Souvenir: A shot glass bought as a reminder of what should have been a jovial trip lies on the ground . A sign indicating the entrance to the site in eastern Ukraine is forbidden is displayed as Dutch and Malaysian investigators search for debris . The debris collected by the investigators will be initially sent to Kharkiv in Ukraine, before being taken to the The Netherlands . A week long recovery operation in November was delayed by fighting between separatists and Ukrainian troops. Representatives of the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) have also faced acute problems accessing the crash site to secure key evidence. After a ceasefire was called in February, Dutch experts returned the following month, yet still much debris remains at the site. The debris collected by the investigators will be initially sent to Kharkiv in Ukraine, before being taken to the The Netherlands. Forensic experts in the Dutch city of Hilversum have identified bodies of 296 victims of the crash. Two victims - both from the Netherlands - remain unidentified. The probe team is due to issue its report into the crash later this year. After a ceasefire was called in February, Dutch experts returned the following month, yet still much debris remains at the site . A preliminary report in September, which apportioned no blame, said the plane 'broke up in the air probably as the result of structural damage caused by a large number of high-energy objects that penetrated the aircraft from outside'. Kiev and the West have claimed that separatists or Russian forces, using a BUK surface-to-air missile supplied by Moscow, were responsible for the shooting down of MH17. The Kremlin strongly refutes the charge, and senior Russian sources have claimed that a Ukrainian warplane blasted MH17 out of the sky. 'Now that we are at an advanced stage of the repatriation mission, the (criminal) investigation and prosecution will occupy a more central place,' said Dutch Justice Minister Ard van der Steur this week. Leaks suggest that investigators suspect regular troops rather than rebels were involved in the shooting of a BUK missile, and that these soldiers 'might have changed their identities or even been executed by Russian secret service in order to hide everything'. Moscow also denies it has ever had troops in eastern Ukraine, a claim the West finds implausible. Investigators examine the crash site of the MH17 plane, next to a sign reading 'no entrance' Putin's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov accuses the Western media of ignoring sightings by locals of a Ukrainian military aircraft in the vicinity of the stricken flight. Dutch broadcaster RTL reported that shrapnel collected from the crash site and tested by independent international forensic experts, including defence analysts IHS Jane's in London, say it matched the explosive charge of a ground-to-air BUK. Alleged intercepted phone calls between rebels seem to back up the version that the plane was downed by a BUK crew using equipment smuggled in and out from Russia. If this could be proven, it would blow apart the Russian denial of involvement in eastern Ukraine quite apart from its assistance that it had nothing to do with the downing of MH17. But as one source close to investigators said: 'It looks like key evidence and witnesses, namely the BUK missile and its crew, have been hidden deep inside Russia which is in denial over this whole episode. 'Probably the inquiry report will blame the attack on a BUK missile, but seeing anyone face justice over this crash is quite another matter.' The dead from MH17 comprised 192 Dutch citizens (one also had U.S. citizenship), 44 Malaysians, including the 15 crew members, 27 Australians, 12 Indonesians, ten Britons (one also had South African citizenship), four Germans, four Belgians, three Filipinos, one Canadian and one New Zealander.

Simon Calvert of the Christian Institute says forcing teachers to promote gay relationships would be making them choose between their faith and their job . Schools should be forced to promote gay relationships in sex education lessons, union leaders say. The National Union of Teachers has called for a ‘positive portrayal of same sex relationships’ in lessons to be made ‘compulsory’ under the next government. It said MPs had a duty to tackle ‘homophobia, biphobia and transphobia’ in schools and create a ‘positive climate of understanding about sexuality’. But critics accused the NUT of ‘thought control’ and said the ‘intolerant’ proposals risked ‘oversexualising’ children at a young age. Meanwhile, Christian groups warned it would compel teachers at faith schools to act against their beliefs. However, the union said the changes were needed to tackle prejudice which was ‘still strongly prevalent in our schools’. Simon Calvert of the Christian Institute said: ‘This motion is itself an act of intolerance towards mainstream Christians and their beliefs. It would force Christian teachers to have to choose between their faith and their job. ‘I wonder whether Christian members of the NUT who have paid their dues can expect any help from the NUT when their jobs are on the line.’ He added that Church schools already teach ‘love and tolerance’ of others without having to explicitly approve of same sex relationships. The proposal was contained in a motion on lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) rights passed by the NUT at its annual conference in Harrogate yesterday. It stated: ‘Conference instructs the executive to call upon the present and future government to … make it compulsory that all schools’ sex education policies include a positive portrayal of same sex relationships.’ The NUT said only 10 per cent of LGBT teachers felt confident to be ‘out’ to students. Other proposals included promoting LGBT History Month – which celebrates gay and transgender rights movements – in every school. The motion also advocated supporting transgender students and staff ‘while transitioning and after’. Christine Blower, NUT General Secretary, said: ‘We need education policy that develops curriculum for children and young people that supports the democratic values of a diverse Britain – including LGBT equality.’ Christine Blower, National Union of Teachers General Secretary, has called for a ‘positive portrayal of same sex relationships’ in lessons to be made ‘compulsory’ under the next government . The law would also see teachers at Muslim and Jewish schools compelled to promote gay marriage and other issues that go against their beliefs. The proposal comes amid a row over the government’s new requirement for schools to teach ‘fundamental British values’, which include tolerance of other faiths and lifestyles. Christian schools have complained they were branded ‘intolerant’ and marked down by Ofsted after children were asked about gays and lesbians. Durham Free School is set to close after inspectors branded it an educational failure and said some children displayed ‘discriminatory’ views towards people of other faiths. Meanwhile, Grindon Hall Christian School in Sunderland was put in special measures after failing to meet Ofsted’s British values criteria. Inspectors were said to have asked pupils if they knew what lesbians ‘did’ and if any of their friends felt trapped in the ‘wrong body’. The drive was formed in response to the Trojan Horse scandal in which Muslim hardliners allegedly tried to impose an Islamic agenda on schools in Birmingham. The NUT motion renewed fears teachers would be required to go beyond their remit in tackling such a sensitive subject. Andrea Williams from Christian Concern said: ‘This kind of policy is dangerous for our children who are being oversexualised at a very young age. Durham Free has been told to close after inspectors branded it an educational failure and said some children displayed ‘discriminatory views’ toward people of other faiths . ‘They are being introduced to concepts and having normalised same sex relationships which robs them of their innocence and is not good for their emotional and moral wellbeing.’ Chris McGovern, of the Campaign for Real Education, said: ‘The rights of groups who oppose gay marriage on sincere religious grounds should be respected as much as those who support gay marriage. Thought control should not be promoted by the NUT.’ A Church of England spokesman said it is ‘fully committed to sex and relationship education that allows room for exploration and discussion of relationships, within a framework of Christian values’. Sex and relationships education is mandatory for pupils at council-run secondary schools. It is also compulsory for children aged between five and 14 at council-run schools to learn about sex as part of the science curriculum.

Sofia Vergara and her ex fiance Nick Loeb are embroiled in a legal fight over her frozen eggs which they planned to have children with before their bitter split, a new report claims. Loeb has filed a lawsuit in California in a bid to prevent the Modern Family actress from destroying two cryopreserved female embryos created through IVF, according to InTouch. Vergara’s representatives declined to comment on the allegations when contacted by DailyMail.com on Wednesday. Court documents, filed under pseudonyms Jane and John Doe, detail how the couple fertilized embryos using her eggs and his sperm six months before their split in November 2013. Scroll down for video . Legal fight: A magazine claims Nick Loeb has filed a lawsuit against his ex-fiancee Sofia Vergara in a bid to prevent her from destroying two cryopreserved female embryos created through IVF, pictured here in 2011 . Loeb, 39, is seeking to ensure the female embryos are not destroyed, but Vergara has refused to 'agree to their preservation under all circumstances,' according to the legal papers. The lawsuit was first filed in August 2014 before it was refiled again on April 1 with updated information and after Loeb sought new legal representation. Another claim in the documents is that, previously, the pair twice had eggs implanted in a surrogate, but the procedure failed. Elsewhere in the lawsuit, it is claimed 42-year-old actress Vergara - who got engaged to True Blood hunk Joe Manganiello on Christmas Day after six months of dating - was 'physically and mentally abusive' to Loeb. Wrangle: The lawsuit has been filed under the pseudonyms John and Jane Doe . No directive: Ultimately, the outcome will be at the discretion of a judge, but it would be unlikely that Loeb would be able to use the embryos without Sofia's consent, according to a legal expert who spoke to InTouch . The documents state: 'She punched him in the face on two occasions, kicked him, and threw her phone at his head. She also routinely bullied him, calling him a "loser," "worthless" and other degrading names.' In April 2013 Vergara - who has a 23-year-old son Manolo from her first marriage - spoke publicly about having frozen her eggs and her desire to have more children. She revealed that she and Loeb - who she dated on-off for almost four years - planned to use a surrogate on the account that she had thyroid cancer in 2000 and, as a result, had a lot of radiation. Complicated matter: In this page of the document it states Sofia and Nick were planning on using a gestational surrogate in 2012 to start a family and that Sofia had insisted on using a 44-year-old friend and emloyee . Arduous process: After the first two embryos failed to implant in the first surrogate the couple looked for another suitable candidate . Getting ugly: Page five of the document further details Sofia and Nick's disagreements over the usage and disposal of the embryos and also alleges Sofia was physically, emotionally and mentally abusive to him . InTouch has previously claimed that now Vergara and 38-year-old Manganiello have found a surrogate and plan to have children of their own. The actress recently told Vanity Fair magazine that while having another child would be 'weird', it something she might do if it made Joe happy. She told the magazine: 'My son, Manolo, is 23 years old, which is going to be really weird if I have another baby. But, you know, Joe wants babies and if it's going to make him super-happy, then...' The complicated legal wrangle with Loeb still stands, though. Moving on: The Modern Family actress is now engaged to Joe Manganiello and there are rumours the couple are planning to have children of their own via a surrogate . Other documentation obtained by InTouch which forms part of the lawsuit shows that Jane Doe (Vergara) asked that the embryos be destroyed in the event of her death, while Loeb refused to agree to this condition. No agreement was made between the couple about what would happen to any frozen eggs in the event they ended their relationship. Ultimately, the outcome will be at the discretion of a judge. However legal experts told InTouch that it would be unlikely that Loeb will be able to use the embryos without Sofia's consent. Mom-of-one: Sofia has a 23-year-old son Manolo from her first marriage, pictured together here in 2014 at HBO's Golden Globes after party in Los Angeles .

Loeb has filed a lawsuit to stop Modern Family actress destroying two frozen embryos, according to legal documents obtained by InTouch . Embryos were fertilized using her eggs and his sperm six months before their split in November 2013, it is claimed . Former couple previously tried to use surrogate to have children twice during their relationship, but procedures failed, according to the lawsuit . But the split before remaining embryos could be implanted, it is alleged . Lawsuit also claims that Vergara was 'physically and mentally abusive' to Loeb during their almost-four-year relationship .

Comments sections and social networks across the web are littered with antisocial users who repeatedly abuse and provoke people to get a reaction. These so-called 'trolls' have even been known to cause mental distress to their victims. But now a team of researchers has studied millions of such online posts to identify common traits among these users. And it has built an algorithm that can recognise a potential troll with an accuracy of 80 per cent by scanning their comments. Experts studied 40 million posts by 1.7 millions users on news site CNN.com, political news site Breitbart.com and gaming site IGN.com.  The researchers then divided users into those most likely to be banned, called Future-Banned Users (FBUs), and other users dubbed Never-Banned Users (NBUs) The research was carried out by PhD students from Stanford and Cornell University, led by Justin Chang, in a paper called Antisocial Behavior in Online Discussion Communities. The team examined three large online forums including general news site CNN.com, Breitbart.com, a political news site, and computer gaming site IGN.com. Within these communities members that repeatedly violate community guidelines can be banned, either temporarily or permanently. Over an 18-month period, the team studied the content and deletion rates of 40 million posts and 100 million votes posted by 1.7 million users across these sites. From this data they were able to divide users into two groups. Posts made by antisocial web users, or trolls, are less readable in terms of language and coherency. Trolls are more likely to veer off-topic and have fewer similarities in terms of language and content compared to posts by other users. Trolls are also less likely to use positive words than other users, they swear more, and use less tentative or conciliatory language such as 'could', 'perhaps', or 'consider'. In terms of activity, the study found that trolls make more comments each day, and post more times on each thread. They purposefully try to create discussions, or actively respond to an on-going discussion. Trolls were also more likely to have had posts deleted than other users and over the 18 month study period, the number of deleted posts by FBUs increased. People who, over the course of the study, were subsequently banned from the sites, or were likely to be, were classified as Future-Banned Users (FBUs). Users who weren't banned during the study, and didn't exhibit signs that suggested they would be in the future, were known as Never-Banned Users (NBUs). Once these users were split up the researchers looked at four features to identify common traits among the FBUs and NBUs. The first was called 'Post features' and included studying the content of a post. 'Activity features' included how often a user posted in the forum, while 'Community features' looked at votes on individual posts that suggest a person or opinion's popularity. Lastly, 'Moderator features' looked at how many posts had been moderated or deleted. The findings suggest that posts written by FBUs are 'less readable', tend to veer off-topic and have fewer similarities in terms of language and content compared to posts by NBUs. The researchers compared the average text similarity of a user's post with the previous three posts in the same thread. 'We find that the average text similarity of posts written by FBUs is significantly lower than that of NBUs, suggesting that FBUs make less of an effort to integrate or stay on-topic,' said researchers. The team also found that while there was no consistent trend with respect to the use of words containing negative emotion among posts made by FBUs, they are less likely to use positive words. Posts made by antisocial web users, or trolls, are less readable (centre) in terms of language and coherency and are more likely to veer off-topic and have fewer similarities than posts by other users (left). Trolls are also less likely to use positive words (right) than other users, and they swear more in posts . In terms of activity, the study found that trolls make more comments each day and post more times on each thread. They purposefully try to create discussions, or actively respond to an on-going discussion . FBUs are also more likely to swear and use less tentative or conciliatory language such as 'could', 'perhaps', or 'consider'. In terms of activity, the research also found that FBUs purposefully try to create discussions, or actively respond to an on-going discussion. As a result they spend more time in individual threads than NBUs. Previous research found that post frequency was a signal of low quality discussions. On Breitbart and IGN, trolls were more likely to reply to others' posts, but on CNN, they were more likely to start new discussions. Still, across all communities, FBUs appear to be 'effective at luring other users into potentially fruitless discussions', which is a sign of troll-like behaviour, said the study. Trolls were also more likely to have had posts deleted than other users and over the 18-month study period, the number of deleted posts by FBUs increased. These traits are unlikely to help recognise a troll in their own right, but when combined, the researchers found they could be used to identify a troll with 80% accuracy . FBUs contribute significantly more posts per thread they participate in, according to the results. Trolls were also more likely to have had more posts deleted than NBUs, and over 18 months, the number of deleted posts by FBUs increased. These individual identifiers and traits are unlikely to help recognise a troll or antisocial behaviours in their own right. However, when combined the researchers found they could identify a troll with an accuracy of 80 per cent. 'Understanding how antisocial users may steer individual discussions can help us better quantify their influence on other users,' concluded the researchers. 'Our initial explorations suggest that FBUs cause discussions to veer off-topic: replies to FBUs were significantly less similar to preceding posts in a thread than replies to NBUs. 'One could also investigate the effects of having multiple antisocial users participate in a discussion.' But they recognised the algorithm's accuracy rate meant that one in five antisocial users are undetected and further works needs to be done to boost this rate and work out effective ways of dealing with the trolls. The findings are published in arXiv.

A 17-year-old Connecticut girl who was forced to have chemotherapy for her cancer has finally been released from hospital after she was removed from her home almost four months ago. Cassandra Fortin has finished the treatment a court ruled that she must undergo at Connecticut Children's Medical Center for Hodgkin's lymphoma, which she was diagnosed with in September. As she was discharged from the facility on Monday, the teenager said she was 'happy' to be heading back to her Hartford home after spending five months undergoing chemotherapy to save her life. 'I'm so happy to finally be on my way home, after 5 months,' she told The Associated Press in a series of text messages while traveling home. 'It feels almost unreal. The feeling of fresh air is wonderful.' Released: Cassandra Fortin, 17, (pictured with her mother Jackie) was released from hospital on Monday after she was made to undergo chemotherapy for Hodgkin's lymphoma, which she was diagnosed with last year . Happy: As she was discharged from hospital, the teenager (pictured with her mom) said she was 'happy' to be heading back to her Hartford home after spending five months undergoing chemotherapy to save her life . Cassandra, whose cancer is now in remission, made national headlines last year after she and her mother initially refused the treatment. They said they wanted to explore natural alternatives instead. But in January, a court ruled that Cassandra could not make the decision because she was not legally mature enough and the state's Department of Children and Families gained temporary custody of her. The case centered on whether the girl, who ran away during a home visit in November, was mature enough to determine how to treat her cancer. Connecticut's high court found that she was not. Some other states recognize the mature minor doctrine. Cassandra, who will be free to make her own medical decisions when she turns 18 in September, was surprised on Monday when her mother brought her best friend to hospital to bring her home. 'This day seemed like it would never come,' she told the AP. 'I can finally start putting my life back together. I look forward to spending time with my mom, friends and heading back to school/work.' Cassandra was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma in September but did not want to receive the recommended treatment before exploring natural alternatives . But in January a court ruled Cassandra could not make the decision because she was not legally mature enough and the state's Department of Children and Families gained temporary custody of the teen . Cassandra was confined at Connecticut Children's Medical Center, where she underwent six rounds of treatment that doctors say will give her an 85 percent chance of survival. Without the chemotherapy, doctors said it was almost certain the teenager would die. She said doctors told her in early March that her cancer was in remission and posted on Facebook that she was grateful she had responded well to the drugs and never wanted to die. Hodgkins lymphoma (cells pictured) is a disease of the white blood cells . Hodgkin's Lymphoma is cancer of the white blood cells called B lymphocytes that circulate around the lymphatic system, which is a network of vessels and glands spread throughout the body. The lymphatic system is part of your immune system. Clear fluid called lymph flows through the lymphatic vessels and contains infection-fighting white blood cells known as lymphocytes. Lymphoma causes the lymphocytes to multiply in an abnormal way and collect in certain parts of the lymphatic system, such as the lymph nodes or glands. These lymphocytes lose their infection-fighting properties, making you more vulnerable to infection. The most common symptom of HL is a painless swelling in a lymph node, usually in the neck, armpit or groin. It usually affects young adults aged between 15 and 35 and adults over the age of 50. Almost all young people with HL will be fully cured. For older people over the age of 50, the cure rate is around 75 per cent to 80 per cent. Treatment depends on the extent of the cancer and will usually involve a combination of radiotherapy, chemotherapy and drugs including steroids. 'I stood up and fought for my rights, and I don't regret it,' she said. In a Facebook post on Saturday, Cassandra wrote that she had 'less than 48 hours left in the hospital' and 'couldn't be happier', according to the Associated Press. The teen was reunited with her mother on Easter Sunday for the first time in three months. Jackie Fortin revealed details about the reunion on the 'FreeCassandra' Facebook page. 'What a feeling to hold her and tell her I love her! She greeted me by running down the hallway yelling mom with her arms wide open!' she wrote. 'This is a very special Easter Sunday.' In March, Cassandra told NBC she had not been allowed to see or speak to her mother since the New Year. Cassandra gave a list of people who were allowed to visit her to the Connecticut Department of Children and Families (DCF), but said she had yet to see her mother or her boyfriend. 'For the most part I don't get many visitors,' she wrote in an interview over Facebook chat. Cassandra told NBC that the guard who stood outside her door had been removed, but that she was still only allowed to visit the cafeteria when escorted by a nurse, patient care assistant or child-welfare official. The teenager insisted that she was prepared to try chemotherapy, but only after exploring other 'alternative' methods first. Jackie told NBC Connecticut that her daughter has long held the belief that she does not want 'poison' in her body. Connecticut Supreme Court ruled in January that the state wasn't violating Cassandra's rights by forcing her to undergo treatment. In January Cassandra called the experience a 'continuous nightmare'. 'It's disgusting that I'm fighting for a right that I and anyone in my situation should already have,' she wrote in the Hartford Courant. 'This is my life and my body, not DCF's and not the state's. I am a human — I should be able to decide if I do or don't want chemotherapy. 'Whether I live 17 years or 100 years should not be anyone's choice but mine.' Cassandra announced in a Facebook post on Saturday that she had 'less than 48 hours left in the hospital' and that she 'couldn't be happier .

Pep Guardiola has denied claims of a dispute with former Bayern Munich club doctor Hans-Wilhelm Muller-Wohlfahrt, who quit the club on Thursday after 'being blamed' for the defeat by Porto. The 72-year-old, who had worked at Bayern for almost 40 years, sensationally quit the Bundesliga club, claiming 'the bond of trust is damaged', but Guardiola has played down claims of a feud.

Continuing at his press conference on Thursday, Guardiola said: 'The responsibility for the defeat in Porto lies with me. Put together, my players have had 30 operations over the last two years, but we've still won the league and cup. 'We can't win every match 3-0 or 4-0 in this situation. It's impossible.'

A moment of madness from England hooker Tom Youngs handed Saracens victory but the second-placed Londoners were frustrated by their failure to earn a four-try bonus. With Leicester 6-0 up after 37 minutes, Youngs was sin-binned for a barge on Chris Ashton, who had passed the ball to Richard Wigglesworth and as he tried to return the favour Tigers Matt Smith grabbed it. Ashton was nowhere near getting the ball, which made Youngs' action even more senseless. Saracens scored two tries with him off and the game was as good over at 14-6 when he came back. Saracens winger Chris Wyles crashes over a try despite the attention of Freddie Burns (left) and Tom Youngs . Sarries No 8 Billy Vunipola makes a trademark bullocking run into the heart of the Tigers defence .

'It is cynical and it was a moment of madness but he does a lot of good things for us. I was disappointed with our discipline because you can't do that. It gets you in trouble and it did today.' Billy Vunipola scored after Youngs' exit and Marcelo Bosch scored after the break.

With Vunipola in rampaging form Christmas and Ashton lively again they were odds-on to do it but they spent the time defending, marshalled by Brad Barritt, and failed to score a fourth try yet again – which could come back to haunt them in the end-of-season play-offs. Director of rugby Mark McCall said: 'There is frustration in the dressing room because we scored our third try after 48 minutes and not much happened after that. 'We have scored three tries in nine different Premiership games and those bonus points could be crucial in terms of home semi-finals.'

An axe-wielding robber has been jailed after his attempt to rob a store was foiled when he was jumped on by the shopkeeper and hit by his wife with a baseball bat. Ex-juvenile offender Shaun Andrew McKerry, dubbed Boomerang Boy or Homing Pigeon Boy in his youth, burst into Shildon Post Office and Stores, County Durham, at 8pm on March 15. The masked 31-year-old waved an axe as he demanded cash from terrified assistant Andrea Brighty, but he did not see owner Sab Dhillon's rugby tackle which dropped him to the floor, sending shelves and produce tumbling. Scroll down for video . As the men wrestled, Sab Dhillon's wife Sam helped by hitting McKerry with a baseball bat . She struck him twice, helping to disarm him while her husband twisted him around to reveal his face to the cameras . As the men wrestled, and with McKerry still holding the axe, Mr Dhillon's wife Sam helped, hitting him twice with a baseball bat to make him drop the weapon. Blood can be seen coming from the would-be robber's nose as Mr Dhillon gestures to his wife to drop the bat. Minutes later the police arrived and arrested McKerry. He previously pleaded guilty at Durham Crown Court to attempted robbery and court officials confirmed he had been jailed for six years after the hearing today. McKerry, from Coundon near Bishop Auckland, earned the nicknames Boomerang Boy or Homing Pigeon Boy as he always returned home after committing a crime.

McKerry once stole 22 charity boxes while dressed as a woman, and locals dubbed him a one-man crime wave. His earned his moniker in the 1990s after he was arrested 80 times in 1995 and 45 times during the 36 weeks he managed to stay out of prison in 1998. McKerry (pictured aged 15) was dubbed 'Boomerang Boy' in the 1990s because he always returned home after his crimes .

Pope Francis has accepted the resignation of an American bishop who pleaded guilty to failing to report a priest who was a suspected child abuser. Bishop Robert Finn, 62, offered his resignation under the code of canon law that allows bishops to resign early for illness or some 'grave' reason that makes them unfit for office. But children's rights advocates are urging Pope Francis to do much more to deal with clergy who become embroiled in child sex scandals. Resignation: Pope Francis has accepted the resignation of Bishop Robert Finn who pleaded guilty to failing to report a suspected priestly child abuser . Action: Children's rights advocates are urging Pope Francis to do much more to deal with clergy who become embroiled in child sex scandals. Finn, who leads the Diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph in Missouri, got into trouble after he waited six months before notifying police about the Reverand Shawn Ratigan. Ratigan had a computer containing hundreds of lewd photos of young girls taken in and around churches where he worked. He was eventually sentenced to 50 years in prison after pleading guilty to child pornography charges. Finn pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of failure to report suspected abuse and was sentenced to two years' probation in 2012. It has made him the highest-ranking church official in the U.S. to be convicted of failing to take action in response to abuse allegations. Since then, he has faced constant pressure from local Roman Catholics to step down, with some parishioners petitioning Francis to remove him from the diocese. Outrage: Protesters, background left, shout as Rev. Juan Barros, center left, enters the cathedral for the ceremony to assume as bishop in Osorno, southern Chile. Barros was ordained amid protests by sex-abuse victims who accuse him of covering up crimes his mentor Rev. Fernando Karadima whom the Vatican has sanctioned for abusing young boys . Despite a catalog of child sex cases within the catholic church, so far, no U.S. bishop has been forcibly removed for covering up guilty clergy. Anne Barrett Doyle, co-director of the online abuse resource BishopAccountability.org, said while Finn's resignation was a welcome step - more has to be done. She has called on Francis to publicly state that he was removed for mismanaging the Ratigan case and failing to protect children. She noted that bishops had been allowed to resign under the previous two popes, but that the Vatican has never publicly linked their resignations to mishandling abuse cases. 'We urge Pope Francis to issue such a statement immediately. That would be unprecedented, and it would send a bracing message to bishops and religious superiors worldwide that a new era has begun,' she said. Meanwhile U.S. victims group SNAP, praised Finn's resignation as a 'tiny but belated step forward.' David Clohessy, a spokesman for SNAP said: 'After centuries of abuse and cover-up done in secrecy ... one pope has finally seen fit to oust one bishop for complicity in clergy sex crimes.That's encouraging. But it's only a very tiny drop of reform in an enormous bucket of horror.' Church: The Sacred Heart of Jesus church in Santiago, where Bishop Juan Barros is said by at least three victims to have witnessed sexual molestation . Last fall, The Vatican sent a Canadian archbishop to Finn's diocese as part of an investigation of his leadership. But until Tuesday, there had been no word about what the pope would do. Pope Francis is facing similar pressure to remove a Chilean bishop, Juan Barros, amid an unprecedented outcry over his appointment because of his longtime affiliation with the Reverend Fernando Karadima, who was sanctioned by the Vatican in 2011 for sexually abusing minors. Karadima's victims say Barros witnessed their abuse decades ago. But he has denied knowing anything until he read news reports of Karadima's crimes in 2010. The Vatican has defended the appointment. In a statement issued by the diocese, Finn said it had been an 'honor and joy for me to serve here among so many good people of faith.' He asked for prayers for the next bishop. Francis has already tapped Archbishop Joseph Naumann to lead the diocese temporarily until a new bishop is named. Naumann said he prayed 'that the coming weeks and months will be a time of grace and healing for the diocese.' Earlier this month, members of the pope's sex abuse advisory commission came to Rome in an unscheduled session to voice their concern about Chilean bishop Juan Barros. They are concerned that his longtime affiliation with the Reverend Fernando Karadima - who was sanctioned by the Vatican in 2011 for sexually abusing minors - makes him unsuitable to head child protection programs.

A breakthrough has been made in the development of clean hydrogen power, scientists claim. At the moment, while hydrogen fuel is appealing, the production of hydrogen is incredible difficult - requiring huge amounts of energy. But the researchers say they have made a new material that can generate hydrogen from water, meaning it is less reliant on fossil fuels. Hydrogen-fuel is appealing for use in cars like the Vauxhall Zafira minivan pictured, but producing hydrogen requires huge amounts of energy. With the new breakthrough, it could be possible to make it more easily . Researchers at the University of Bath and Yale University created the invention. It uses a newly designed molecular catalyst to split water in an electrolyser and create clean and storable hydrogen fuel. Lead research Dr Ulrich Hintermair told MailOnline that the main problem with the production of hydrogen through a process known as water electrolysis was the waste oxygen it produces. Water splitting is an electro-chemical process in which two electrodes generate oxygen and hydrogen from water, respectively. The energy required to drive this process gets locked up in the hydrogen as the fuel with oxygen as a by-product. A fuel cell can then harness the energy again elsewhere by recombining the two. The new patented catalyst is more efficient at performing the crucial oxidation half of the reaction than any other existing material, minimising energy losses in the electricity-to-hydrogen conversion process. It can be directly applied to various electrode surfaces in a straightforward and highly economical manner. The process splits water into hydrogen and oxygen but, while the first part can be done quite efficiently, the latter was more difficult and lots of energy is lost. With this in mind the team designed a catalyst - a substance that alters the speed of the chemical reaction - to improve the efficiency. ‘Oxygen is the most difficult bit,’ Dr Hintermair explained. Their catalyst, placed on an electrode used in the production of hydrogen, is much more efficient - and although Dr Hintermair didn’t have an exact figure, he said the energy loss using it is ‘almost non-existent’. The major benefit from this breakthrough is that hydrogen could now be used more easily as a way to store energy from renewable sources like wind and solar. ‘We can make electricity out of sunlight and wind, low carbon renewable sources, but we can’t store it very well,’ Dr Hintermair continued. ‘We can put it in a battery but you can’t, for example, fly an airplane on a battery yet. ‘So we need to convert it into a chemical fuel, and for that water electrolysis is a key technology because we can take any renewable technology, connect it to an electrolyster and store it in hydrogen, which is a fantastic fuel.’ This, for example, would make hydrogen fuel cells for cars much more economical. On this right in this image is the catalyst being used in the water electrolysis process. The large bubbles are oxygen, while the smaller bubbles on the left are hydrogen . The team are in discussions with a number of energy companies about utilising this technology on a large scale and hope the breakthrough marks the start of contributing to providing the world with more sustainable fuels. ‘In theory it could be used on all systems, but it depends on cost and scale,’ said Dr Hintermair. As regulations tighten on the use of fossil fuels and their emissions, there is a growing focus on the need for cost effective and efficient ways of creating energy carriers from renewable sources. Solar power is thought to be able to provide up to four per cent of the UK's electricity by the end of the decade. However, while the price of photovoltaic technology has dramatically decreased in recent years as demand has risen, solar energy is problematic as it is intermittent, meaning electricity is only created when it is light. One use of the newly developed catalyst could be to store the energy produced by solar power by using the electricity to produce hydrogen which can then be used on demand, regardless of the time of day. Solar power is thought to be able to provide up to four per cent of the UK's electricity by the end of the decade (Wymeswold Solar Farm in Leicestershire, UK shown), but storing it is difficult. This new technology could store energy as hydrogen, which can then be used on demand . Dr Hintermair is a Whorrod research fellow at the Centre for Sustainable Chemical Technologies at the University of Bath. 'Hydrogen is a fantastically versatile and environmentally friendly fuel, however, hydrogen-powered applications are only as "green" as the hydrogen on which they run,' he said. 'Currently, over 90 per cent is derived from fossil fuels. If we want to bring about a clean hydrogen economy we must first generate clean hydrogen. 'This new molecular catalyst will hopefully play a large role in helping create hydrogen from renewable energy sources such as solar power. 'We are also interested in applying this technology to other forms of renewable energy such as tidal, wind and wave power.' Professor Matthew Davidson, head of the department of chemistry, added: 'Splitting water into its constituent parts is deceptively simple chemistry, but doing it in a sustainable way is one of the holy grails of chemistry because it is the key step in the goal of artificial photosynthesis. '[Dr Hintermair's] results are extremely exciting because of their potential for practical application.'

John Carver says Newcastle’s hierarchy must try to bring an end to protests against the club after admitting it is affecting performances on the pitch. The Magpies slumped to a sixth straight defeat at home to Spurs last weekend amid an atmosphere of unrest after thousands of supporters boycotted the match in protest at a lack of ambition and investment from owner Mike Ashley. Fans group AshleyOut.com are now encouraging supporters to ‘Stand Up To Ashley’ when Swansea visit St James’ Park on Saturday. This will involve a 34th-minute protest in recognition of the £34million which was last week revealed to be sitting in the club’s bank. Newcastle interim manager John Carver has called for unity at the club following a divisive season . Carver has said he is not afraid about giving his honest opinion on events at St James' Park . And Carver said: ‘We have to find a way of dealing with it and managing the situation because it can only hurt us – that is the fans and the club. ‘We need to find a solution. I don’t know what that is and I haven’t had talks about it, but if I get asked my opinion then I would give an honest answer. ‘It would be fantastic (if this was resolved ahead of next season). From day one it would be better. That is what we need to do.’ Carver, meanwhile, says his players were affected by the protest during the 3-1 loss against Spurs. ‘When I came away from the game I thought about it and the people who were in the stadium weren’t quite sure how to react. Some of them were annoyed that people had stayed away, others were delighted. It was strange,’ he said. ‘When it all kicked off last year you knew where you stood. This wasn’t a nice situation to be in, it was uncomfortable. ‘There was a lot of apprehension around the place on Sunday. I hear there was anger with each other and people falling out with each other in the stands. That cannot help, surely not. ‘I thought it didn’t affect us during the game, but on reflection I think it did.’ Carver – who is likely to be replaced by Steve McClaren in the summer - says he has not been told if he will still have a role at the club next season. Newcastle United fans have planned a mass protest against owner Mike Ashley on Saturday afternoon . At least 10,000 supporters stayed away from St James' Park for the club's last home game against Spurs . However, he hopes that the club make a swift announcement on the future of the managerial position. ‘That would be for everyone’s benefit,’ said Carver when asked if the week after the season’s end was the best time to resolve the current uncertainty. ‘The fans, myself, everyone could enjoy their summer. I think it will be (sorted quickly) because don’t forget the window opens very soon after the season finishes. It has to be done and your recruitment has to be done in that period of time.’ He added: ‘I don’t know (if it will be me). I think people understand the situation I’m in and know what I’m trying to do. ‘Only they (hierarchy) know. But every time I get together with them they are positive – whether that’s to keep me going or they have someone else lined up, I don’t know. ‘That doesn’t affect me, the future will take care of itself. I’m just concentrating on now.’ The supporters' group have asked fans to stand in the 34th minute of Saturday's match against Swansea . Fans boycotting the Spurs match hold banners demanding the resignation of Ashley as Newcastle director . Newcastle supporters have also been asked to take part in peaceful protests outside Sports Direct stores .

John Carver believes Newcastle must sort out off-the-field problems . Newcastle fans have been encouraged to protest against Mike Ashley . Supporters will 'Stand Up To Ashley' during match against Swansea .

Peter Morris was devastated when his sister, Claire, died in a car crash when she was just 32. Only a year before, he had walked her down the aisle to give her away to her husband, Malcolm Webster, from Surrey, then aged 33, who seemed equally bereft at the loss of his wife. Peter, from Gillingham, Kent, believed Claire had died in a tragic accident that happened in Aberdeen, Scotland, in 1994. Scroll down for video . Peter Morris, left, was devastated when his sister, Claire, pictured right on her hen do, died in a car crash . It took two decades for the truth to be revealed - Claire had in fact been murdered by Webster so he could cash in on her life insurance. Webster had drugged his wife at their home in the Scottish village of Tarves, where they had settled after their wedding, before taking her for a drive. He then deliberately crashed their car and, after making his own escape, set it on fire so Claire had no hope of survival. Last year Claire's story was turned into an ITV drama starring Sheridan Smith. And now Peter has gone in front of the cameras to talk about his grief and to reveal the shocking detail of his sister's death, which he is still coming to terms with 21 years later. 'The fire brigade said it was the most intense fire they had ever seen from a mile away, the flames were leaping 20, 30 feet, it was just ridiculous,' Peter reveals on the latest episode of Britain's Darkest Taboos. 'A very brave fireman tried to retrieve what was left of Claire. There wasn't much left of her, poor love.' Peter said he was shocked and heartbroken when he was told his sister, a qualified nurse, had lost her life in just terrible circumstances. Claire and Malcolm Webster pictured on their wedding day in 1993, the following year he murdered her . He had no reason to suspect Webster, who Claire had met at a party, had drugged and then burned her alive. Claire had been besotted with him and was delighted when they tied the knot in 1993. Peter recalls: 'He seemed like the perfect gentleman which is exactly what she would have wanted. He was a sort of Colin Firth type character.' He said he and Webster consoled one another at the funeral and Peter believed he was suffering just as much as he was. 'He didn't say a lot at the funeral, he appeared to be in a complete state of shock as well,' he said. 'We were all standing round the graveside, in my right hand I was holding on to Malcolm's left hand. 'I was in floods of tears, and I looked at Malcolm, and he, he was also in floods of tears. And that more than anything else convinced me that it had been a genuine accident.' For years Peter continued to believe the car crash had been accidental, and while some officers who investigated the scene of the crash had their misgivings, they had no concrete evidence to suggest anything different. Felicity Drumm, pictured on Britain's Darkest Taboos, was Webster's second wife. He attempted to kill her in circumstances similar to Claire's death . Peter lost touch with his brother-in-law when Webster moved to New Zealand - but it was there that his true colours were revealed when he tried to murder again. He married Felicity Drumm and they had son together. Unbeknownst to Felicity, he started faking her signature to take out life insurance polices in her name and also began poisoning her like he had done to Claire. Felicity also appears on Britain's Darkest Taboos and reveals how it felt to be drugged. She said: 'These episodes would often begin with a feeling of blurred vision or double vision and unsteadiness on my feet, my speech was sometimes become a little bit slurred, I would stagger around as if I was drunk and then would fall into a deep sleep.' She couldn't believe her husband could be the cause of her illness but a pattern was forming. 'These events occurred after he had prepared a meal or a drink for me, they were always at the weekends, never inconveniently when I had to be able to go to work,' she said. Then in circumstances similar to Claire's death, in 1999 she was driven by Webster to a remote location when she was feeling tired and drowsy. It seems Webster could have been about to commit murder again - until he was interrupted by a phone call from Felicity's concerned parents. Felicity recalls how Webster was angry that the call had woken her up and urged her to ignore it but she persuaded him to drive her home so she could see her father. Webster then fled while Felicity learned some shocking truths from her parents. Webster pictured in 2011 when he was jailed for life after being found guilty of murder . 'We discovered that he'd opened up a private mail box, he had redirected all of our mail including bank mail which had prevented me from discovering that gradually the account was being fleeced,' she said. 'There were enquiries to real estate agents back in the Cornwall and Devon area suggesting he would be returning shortly to the UK with his infant son. At the bottom of his briefcase there was a total of nine life insurance policies, which collectively was in excess of a million dollars on my death, and they had my signature forged on them.' Chillingly, they also discovered a petrol canister in her car and Felicity is convinced she narrowly escaped death that day. Webster went on the run back to the UK while Felicity reported him to the New Zealand police. After investigating, they urged Scottish police to reopen the case into Claire's death. The lead officer in the case was Charles Henry. He said: 'The original fatal road accident was highly suspicious and it bore all the hallmarks of what was happening in New Zealand. At that particular point we were facing a highly dangerous individual who was a threat to any women that he was going to be with.' Felicity pictured in 2011 when she gave evidence against Webster during the trial in which he was dubbed 'the black widower' However, it would take years for the police to build a strong enough case to prove Claire's death was not an accident and gain enough evidence to charge Webster. By then, he was back living in Scotland and was planning to marry another woman who had no idea of his murderous history. In May 2011, after a long running trial during which he was dubbed 'The Black Widower', Webster was found guilty of murdering Claire, attempting to murder Felicity and attempting to bigamously marry a third woman to gain access to her estate. Now aged 55, he is currently serving a life sentence with a minimum term of 30 years. 'I think his sentence aptly reflects the horribleness of his crimes, and the fact that he feels no remorse, that it was all premeditated and, given the opportunity he was about to do it again,' said Felicity, who gave evidence against the father of her child at his trial. Peter, who had to wait 21 years to get justice for Claire, said he and his family can now finally move on even though their lives will never be the same again. Peter says Claire's death nearly destroyed their family but now they are rebuilding their lives . He said: 'If anything it taught me that you just have to be a little bit more cautious in life as to who you trust and when you trust them, because we could all be living next door to the next Malcolm Webster. 'It was an experience that did nearly destroy me and it nearly destroyed my family but thank God it didn't and thank God over a period of time we've managed to put the pieces back together and move on.'
