More than half of London's top property sales last year went to overseas buyers, with Russian nationals topping the league after UK house-hunters. Russian nationals are understood to have acquired £266million-plus homes in the capital, spending a staggering £429million. People from the UK purchased 2,183 of the 4,510 homes sold in this price bracket in 2010, according to the data. Steel magnate Lakshmi Mittal's £70million property in Kensington Palace Gardens was bought in 2008 . One Hyde Park has 86 residential properties marketed with prices starting at around £20 million (left) and Roman Abramovich's house in Knightsbridge (right) In addition, research from Lloyds TSB earlier this month found that sales of homes worth at least £1million recently reached their highest level since the peak of the housing market in 2007. Strong demand from wealthy cash-rich . buyers, both in the UK and from overseas, as well as limited supply of . such properties is thought to have boosted sales. It is the latest evidence that Britain is increasingly seen as a save haven for assets during the worsening financial crisis. A number of the world's most wealthy people, including non-Britons Indian steel magnate Lakshmi Mittal and Roman Abramovich have properties in London. And many of the 86 residential properties at the Candy Brothers' One Hyde Park, marketed with prices starting at around £20 million, have been snapped up by foreigners. Here are the top 10 purchasers of £1 . million-plus properties London in 2010, the estimated number of . properties purchased and their worth, according to HBC: . 1. UK 2,183 £3,517,122,197 . 2.

Aircraft manufacturer Hawker Beechcraft Corporation (HBC), which partly based its analysis on Land Registry data, believes that the large number of foreign buyers of prime property in London has contributed to an increase in business flights to some of the region's main business airports. Sean McGeough, HBC president, Europe, Middle East and Africa, said: 'As one of the most desirable cities in the world, it's no surprise that London's property market is attracting a large number of overseas buyers. 'Given that many of these individuals lead busy lives and often travel a huge amount, this helps explain the rise in flights to London's business airports.' HBC found that the number of business flights to Biggin Hill, London City and Farnborough increased by 46 per cent, 38 per cent and 34 per cent respectively between January and September.

(CNN) -- Rapper Fat Joe has been "officially cleared" after Wisconsin police investigated an alleged sexual assault reported by a woman last weekend, according to his lawyer. The 33-year-old Madison, Wisconsin, woman called police with a complaint of "inappropriate touching" after Fat Joe -- whose real name is Joseph Cartagena -- performed at the city's Orpheum Theater on Sunday night, a police report said. The woman said the incident happened inside a limousine with Fat Joe and other male subjects, the police report said. "Fat Joe had no contact with and never spoke to his accuser," attorney Dawn Florio said in a statement Thursday night. "He was questioned for a few minutes at his hotel room and was never detained by the police." CNN's Denise Quan contributed to this report.

Beijing, China (CNN) -- Dissident artist Ai Weiwei will not be allowed to publicly appeal a multimillion-dollar tax penalty the Chinese government says he owes, he said Thursday. Ai told CNN by phone that Chinese tax authorities sent him a note March 27 telling him he will not be given a public trial but a "written hearing." They sent him another note Thursday saying he must pay the 15 million yuan ($2.4 million) in back taxes he was already ordered to pay, and that he can make no further appeals. Ai, who was found guilty of tax evasion last year, said he plans to sue the tax authorities. Chinese authorities detained Ai for 81 days last year and later ordered him to pay the 15 million yuan in back taxes they said he owed through his company, Fake Cultural Development Ltd. Ai paid 8.45 million yuan ($1.3 million) late last year so he could contest the charges. Had he not paid the sum, he said at the time, his wife would have been jailed. Ai's family and human rights advocates have said they believe the Chinese government is targeting him for his criticism of the regime. An internationally renowned artist, Ai's works -- often with political undercurrents -- command hundreds of thousands of dollars. His 2010 installation at the Tate Modern in London involved 100 million porcelain sunflower seeds, each one hand-painted by specialists in China, spread on the floor of the museum's large entrance hall. Ai helped design Beijing's iconic Bird's Nest stadium for the 2008 Olympics, though he later spoke against the Games. CNN's Judy Kwon contributed to this report.

The wake of the giant wave travelled 8,000miles through the Pacific and Southern Oceans until it battered a 260ft tall wall of ice at the southern tip of Earth.

Long distance: The wake of the Japanese tsunami travelled 8,000miles through the Pacific and Southern Oceans until it battered a 260ft tall wall of ice at the southern tip of Earth - causing giant icebergs to break off Antarctica . The discovery shows once more the awesome power of the tsunami, which was caused by a magnitude 9.0 earthquake off the northern coast of Japan. It was pieced together by researchers who studied Nasa pictures of Earth to map the path of the wave during the 18 hours it took to cross the globe. Using the satellite images the researchers were able to see the ice sheet calving, or breaking off, in near real time. The Sulzberger ice shelf, which has barely moved in nearly 50 years, was put under so much strain by the powerful wave that vast chunks dropped off. Iceberg in the Antarctic: Researchers who studied Nasa pictures of Earth to map the path of the wave during the 18 hours it took to cross the globe (file picture) The wave was just 1ft high there but there was so much force it had a huge effect. Lead researcher Kelly Brunt, a cryosphere specialist at Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, said: ‘In the past, we've had calving events where we've looked for the source. ‘It's a reverse scenario - we see a calving and we go looking for a source. ‘We knew right away this was one of the biggest events in recent history - we knew there would be enough swell. And this time we had a source.’ Tragedy: The wave from a tsunami crashes over a street in north-eastern Japan in March, after the magnitude 9.0 earthquake struck the area, killing 15,000 people . The earthquake which hit Japan on March 11 caused waves up to 130ft that went up to six miles inland. Entire towns and villages were wiped off the map as the waves crashed onto the land in terrifying footage that was captured and posted on the internet by survivors. The wave also caused a meltdown at the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant which it is feared has left thousands with radiation poisoning. The research was published in the online edition of the Journal of Glaciology.

FORT HOOD, Texas (CNN) -- Families of tens of thousands of soldiers based at Fort Hood have one military wife to thank for a more normal routine at the base. A blunt conversation with an Army wife started Lt. Gen. Rick Lynch on the path toward his family-first policies. When Lt. Gen. Rick Lynch first took over as commander of the largest Army base in the United States, a soldier's wife approached him and gave him a talking to about how soldiers don't "really" get to spend time at home when they come home from war. "She said 'General, don't talk to us about dwell time. Because my husband might as well be in Iraq,'" Lynch told CNN last week. "'He comes home after the kids go to bed, we never see him on weekends and you take him away to train all the time.'" Lynch said that woman's comments "really hit me in the gut." In response, Lynch made "focus on the family" a key part of Fort Hood's environment. He insists that every soldier on a day schedule leave work in to be home for dinner by 6 p.m. On Thursday, many are told to leave by 3 p.m. so they can have the afternoon with the family. And no one at Fort Hood works weekends unless Lynch signs off on it. He likes to point out that when a soldier deploys overseas, the only thing he can't get is time with his family, so it's important to get it between deployments -- what the military calls "dwell time." Lynch's "home by dinner" order creates a daily traffic jam on the base in Killeen, Texas, as tens of thousands of soldiers leave at once. Master Sgt. Guadalupe Stratman enjoys Fort Hood's family-first attitude. She has a husband and three sons. When she's not cooking dinner after leaving the base, she's helping with homework or "just watching them grow." It's not just about keeping military spouses and children happy, it's about creating a more resilient soldier; one less likely to abuse drugs or alcohol, injure or kill himself in a traffic accident or fall to suicide, Lynch says. It's working. No soldier has been killed on the roads around Fort Hood in more than 200 days. And although the base has seen two suicides since the start of the year, that is much less than some other major Army bases. Lynch is taking other steps to battle stress and suicides at Fort Hood. He's opened a soldier "Resiliency Campus" -- a city-block-sized collection of buildings with programs and activities aimed at improving a soldier's mind, body and spirit. And there is a weekly meeting of the base's "suicide prevention board," which Lynch usually chairs. This isn't to say that all the soldiers at Fort Hood are completely well-adjusted and ready for their next deployment. CNN spoke to one squad of soldiers who'd returned from a deployment to Fort Hood just a week before our visit. One soldier said he has "anger issues. I get angry over a lot of little things." Others are bothered by crowds or just driving around town. But even those young veterans, for whom the stress of being in a war zone continues after their return to their home base, have found ways to cope. The spend their off-hours together playing video games or just remembering what they went through together. "Some of the roughest times we've had, we sit back and laugh," Pfc. Keven Abbott said. "We are very well together -- you cannot bring us down." Watch CNN's Barbara Starr report on sorrows and joys of returning home » . The successful fight against stress at Fort Hood is getting noticed at the Pentagon. Among others, Adm. Michael Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has praised Lynch's programs. But just after CNN's visit to Fort Hood, the Defense Department sent out a news release announcing that Lynch would be moving on to his next job in the Army. What remains to be seen is whether his ideas about putting families first and creating "resilient soldiers" will carry on at Fort Hood after he leaves.
Lt. Gen. Rick Lynch at Fort Hood had blunt conversation with Army wife over priorities . He instituted a family-first program, including orders to be home for dinner by 6 . Fewer accidents, stress and suicides at largest Army base in U.S. now reported . "Suicide prevention board" meets weekly; Lynch usually chairs .

By . Kerry Mcdermott . PUBLISHED: . 13:38 EST, 21 November 2012 . | . UPDATED: . 13:40 EST, 21 November 2012 . A debt-ridden civil servant forged his elderly neighbour's will and then bludgeoned her to death with a claw hammer so he could inherit her house. Peter Smith, 48, was today jailed for life for the brutal murder of housebound widow Hilda Owen, 71, at her home in Skegby, Nottinghamshire, in February 2007. Just two days before the attack Smith - who the court heard was 'mortgaged to the hilt' - had prepared a will for frail Mrs Owen which bequeathed her entire estate to him. Guilty: Peter Smith, 48 (left), was found guilty of murdering his frail neighbour Hilda Owen, 71 (right), at her home in Skegby, Nottinghamshire in February 2007 . It is the second time Smith has been convicted of Mrs Owen's murder - he won the right to a re-trial after being found guilty by a jury in 2008. He will serve a minimum of 27 years. The former Department of Work and Pensions employee - who befriended his neighbour by running errands for her and helping her with shopping - had admitted preparing a will for Mrs Owen just two days before the widow was attacked. Smith, who had outstanding debts of £35,000, had denied getting her to sign the document and later filling in details in her absence in order to make himself the sole beneficiary. After falsifying Mrs Owen's will, Smith attacked the widow - who was rendered housebound by arthritis. Police were alerted when Smith pretended to discover her body two days later. He had scattered items around the room in an attempt to fool police into believing Mrs Owen had been attacked by a burglar. The 71-year-old was found with 48 injuries consistent with the use of a claw hammer and a screwdriver. Blood stains found at the scene indicated the woman had been struck from behind while sitting in a chair and then attacked on the floor. Scene: Smith pretended to find Mrs Owen's body two days after he had savagely killed her at her home in Skegby . Prosecutor Peter Joyce QC told the jury Mrs Owen had been 'a defenceless, elderly, disabled woman who was killed by Smith for her money and her possessions'. Nottingham Crown Court heard he had claimed grants for Mrs Owen and posed as her carer in order to collect £240 a month in benefits. After the hearing, Nottinghamshire Police Detective Superintendent Paul Cottee said: 'Once again, a jury has found Peter Smith guilty of the brutal murder of Hilda Owen. 'The evidence against Smith in terms of motive, his behaviour prior to Mrs Owen’s murder and his movements on and immediately after the day of her murder was overwhelming. 'The collation of that evidence is testament to excellent policing work to categorically identify Smith as the person who planned the killing of Mrs Owen in order to benefit financially from her death,' he added. Det Supt Cottee said the re-trial process meant the victim's relatives again had to endure hearing details of the ordeal she suffered at the hands of her killer. 'However, they can now be assured that the man who murdered her has been returned to prison, where he will remain for a very long time,' he said. Defenceless: Mrs Owen was discovered with 48 injuries inflicted with a claw hammer and a screwdriver . Mrs Owen’s family said in a statement: 'We are very pleased that the jury has returned a guiltyverdict so that, once and for all, we can be rid of any uncertainty that lingered over Smith’s original conviction following his appeal. 'Hopefully this verdict will bring an end to this devastating episode in our lives' Statement from Mrs Owen's family . 'We respect his legal right to have sought these proceedings, but it has again been a very upsetting time for us all. We have been put in the very unusual position of having to endure two trials which have both reached guilty verdicts against the same man for the same crime. 'Hopefully, this verdict will bring an end to this devastating episode in our lives.' Mrs Owen's neighbours told of their shock at learning she had been murdered by her neighbour. Geoff Shirley, who ran the village shop in Skegby, said: 'I thought Smith was the bee's knees. 'I thought he was ideal for Hilda, that he was a caring, good neighbour. I felt utterly betrayed when it turned out as it has. I was devastated. 'I honestly thought "how could anyone have done that to Hilda?" She was so frail.'

By . Anna Hodgekiss . From drinking urine to nose picking, there have long been gruesome-sounding 'remedies' with supposed health benefits. But would you go as far as eating a sausage containing bacteria from baby poo? Spanish researchers believe this could be another way to get 'healthy bacteria' in the body. Bacteria often found in probiotics - Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium - are found in abundance in baby poo, say Spanish researchers . They say that baby stools are an abundant source of probiotics that boost gut health - and that sausages containing it could become a health food. This is because many types of sausages - including pepperoni and salami - are made with the aid of bacterial fermentation, the website LiveScience reports. The bacteria is either naturally occurring in the raw meat or added to the meat in the manufacturing process. More and more evidence is showing that gut bacteria plays a crucial role in our health. Changes to gut bacteria, that result in an imbalance between 'friendly' and 'unfriendly' bacteria, are associated with cancer, diabetes and . inflammatory bowel disease. And earlier this year, researchers at the Buck Institute for Research on Ageing, in California, found that  having the right balance of gut bacteria could be the secret to a long life. Probiotics are live bacteria which, when consumed, are thought to colonise the stomach with bugs that help digestion. Their beneficial effects are not wholly proven, although there is increasing evidence they might help with a range of problems, including diarrhoea and food allergies. Scientists cultured this bacteria and used it to ferment the Spanish sausage fuet (file picture). They found this sausage contained enough probiotics to have health-giving benefits . This includes research showing that the bacteria in the gut may 'communicate' with the brain, improving mental health and behaviour in conditions such as anxiety, and possibly even autism and Asperger's syndrome. As a result, the probtiocs industry - which revolves largely around yogurt and supplements - is booming. In an attempt to find other ways to incorporate probiotics into diet, Spanish researchers theroised that probiotic bacteria could also be used in fermented sausages. Live Science contributor Charles Q Choi reports that 'for probiotic bacteria to work, they . must survive the acids in the digestive tract. As such, the researchers . focused on microbes found alive in human faeces'. Probiotics most commonly contain the bacteria Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium - and these are found in high levels in baby poo. More and more evidence is showing that gut bacteria plays a crucial role in our health, from how long we live to our state of mind . So the researchers, led by Anna Jofré, a food . microbiologist at Catalonia's Institute of Food and Agricultural . Research, in Girona, Spain, took stool samples from the nappies of 43 babies aged up to six months old. They then used bacteria cultured from the stools to make type of fermented sausage called 'fuet', which is similar to chorizo. They also made sausages using commercial probiotic strains of bacteria - but the only sausage with enough 'good' microbes to have any beneficial effect on gut health was that made from the baby poo. Even better, the researchers, who findings are reported in the journal Meat Science, say their creations tasted as a traditional fuet would. 'We ate them, and they tasted very good,' Jofré told LiveScience .

A crazed gunman was shot dead after he went on a deadly rampage, setting fire to his house, then fatally shooting a sheriff's deputy and wounding another when they arrived to tackle the blaze. The man, who has not been named, was killed by a Tallahassee police officer who lived nearby. He heard the shooting, threw on his bullet-proof vest, grabbed his gun and ran toward the house. Crime scene: Heavily-armed law enforcement officers stand at the site where a man set his house on fire and then fatally shot a sheriff's deputy and wounded another responding to the scene . Lt. James McQuaig of the Leon County Sheriff's Office said deputies and firefighters responded to the blaze about 10:15 a.m. But as the first deputy approached the house, the man opened fire and he was fatally shot. The gunman then picked up the deputy's gun, walked down the street and used it to shoot a second deputy before he was fatally shot by other law enforcement officers, McQuaig said. The wounded Deputy credits his vest for saving his life and his injuries are not believed to be life threatening. Police have not yet released the name of the gunman who was killed, or the names of the wounded deputies. However, the fire has been extinguished and crime scene investigators were seen going in and out of the house. The house blaze was set near a gray and white house which sits on a corner in a middle-class neighborhood just outside the Tallahassee city limits. Property records show it was purchased in 2012 for $128,000. The shooting comes just days after a police shootout at Florida State University left a gunman dead after he wounded two students and an employee. Myron May, 31, an FSU alumnus, showed signs of mental health issues months before he opened fire at a campus library early Thursday.

The BBC has apologised on air after a Mensa member appearing as a guest on one of its shows said anyone with an IQ of around 60 was ‘probably a carrot’. Peter Baimbridge made the comment during a live discussion about IQ testing on BBC Breakfast. A number of viewers contacted the programme to complain that the remark insulted people with learning difficulties. Scroll down for video . Offensive: Mensa tester Peter Bainbridge compared anybody with an IQ 'around 60' to a carrot while appearing on BBC Breakfast . Guest: Mr Bainbridge was being interviewed by presenters Charlie Stayt and Louise Minchin about IQ testing . Mr Baimbridge, an IQ test . administrator, had been asked to explain why the testing was unreliable. After saying that most IQ tests would have ‘Mr and Mrs Average scoring . 100’ he added that if your IQ is ‘somewhere around 60 then you are . probably a carrot’. The remark initially drew a smile from . Louise Minchin, but she and co-host Charlie Stayt then read out some of . the complaints on air. At the end of the programme they . apologised for the remarks and read out a personal apology from Mr . Baimbridge. One viewer, an employee of learning disability charity . Mencap, said she was ‘shocked’ and ‘disgusted’ by the comments. Ciara Evans, who has a learning disability, said: ‘I am shocked that someone has described people like me as carrots. Average: Asked to explain IQ testing Mr Bainbridge said that most IQ testing 'will have MR and Mrs average scoring around 100' Laughing: Co-host Louise Minchin seen laughing after Mr Bainbridge compared anybody with an IQ of around 60 with a carrot . ‘We can achieve a lot in life. I live independently, have a full-time job and I’m getting married next year. ‘I am disgusted that he made this . comment, and on behalf of all the people who have tweeted, rung and . emailed Mencap to say how upset they are, I think Mensa should apologise . and he should engage his brain before his mouth. ‘It seems that having a high IQ . doesn’t make you a sensitive or caring human being.’ One of the . complaints read out on air came from a Dr Sullivan who said: ‘As a . clinical psychologist who has worked with many people who have an IQ . below 60, I find these comments to be offensive and completely . incorrect. ‘Such comments perpetuate the stigma . around an individual with learning difficulties.’ According to Mencap, . 1.5million people in the UK have a learning disability. A BBC spokesman . said: ‘Clearly we do not condone the comments that were made in any way . and sincerely apologise for the offence caused.’ Mensa was founded in England in 1946 by Roland Berrill, a barrister, . and Lance Ware, a scientist and lawyer, who wanted to form a society for . people with a high IQ. It has over 110,000 members worldwide, and to become a member of, . you must score in the top two percent of the population on a properly . administered IQ test. Members include Carol Vorderman, whose IQ is 154, and Jimmy Savile was a member of the society. One its its best known members is Sir Clive Sinclair (right), who was chairman . for 17 years from 1980 to 1997. Computer pioneer Sinclair was even . briefly engaged to 21-year-old accountant and fellow Mensa-member . Bernadette Tynan (IQ 154) in 1989. Mensa has been riddled with infighting and scandal since it was founded. Julie Baxter from Lancashire with an IQ of 154, was appointed chair in . 1997 supposedly to change everything - but after nine months was booted . out, saying the committee was obsessed with 'self-aggrandisement and the . pursuit of power for its own sake', and that some of the men on it are . 'sad people with no social life' who are obsessed with Mensa. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- . What your IQ score means . IQ, meaning intelligence quotient, is a test to assess intelligence. The term was originally coined by German psychologist William Stern. A score of 90-100 is considered an average IQ. IQs between 110-120 are considered to show superior intelligence. IQs greater than 140 are said to signify genius, with scientist Stephen Hawking predicted to have the highest IQ achievable of 161. People with IQs below 70 are said to have learning difficulties . Mensa, founded in 1946 as a society . for people with a high IQ, apologised via its website for the ‘totally . inappropriate’ comment which ‘does not represent the society’s official . position or view’. It emphasised that Mr Baimbridge had apologised and . had not intended any offence. Chief executive John Stevenage added . that Mensa ‘fully recognises that it is not what level of mental ability . someone has but what they do with it that is the real achievement in . life’. Mensa, founded in England in 1946 by barrister Roland Berrill and scientist Dr Lance Ware, represents those whose IQs are in the ‘top two per cent of the population’. The society, which welcomes members of any age, has the aim of providing ‘stimulating intellectual and social environment for its members’ and hoping to encourage ‘human intelligence for the benefit of humanity’. Complaints: The presenters read out complaints about the comments later in the programme. One viewer described the comment as 'insulting' Dreadful: Users on Twitter complained about the comment made on BBC Breakfast . The society also exists globally through umbrella organisation Mensa international. High-profile . members have included television presenter Carol Vorderman, anti-virus . software pioneer John McAfee and Jimmy Savile. Other recognisable members, known as Mensans, include director Quentin Tarantino and actors Goldie Hawn and Steve Martin. Mr Bainbridge’s comment drew derision online, with users taking to Twitter to complain about the comparison between somebody with a low IQ and a carrot. Rich Jobling wrote: ‘Proof that being clever can make you look stupid’, while Amanda Price said: ‘very concerned that the man from Mensa described someone with an IQ of 60 as being a carrot. This is highly offensive .’ Internet users described Mr Bainbridge’s remark as ‘disgraceful’ and ‘dreadful’, while one user, referring to himself as Markwell, wrote: ‘Mensa you have an idiot as an ambassador’.

(CNN) -- Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten is the 2012 Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year. Why? In large part because of Witten's tireless commitment to ending domestic violence. As a former professional football player and longtime domestic violence prevention advocate, I understand how gratifying it is to receive this honor from the NFL. For the men engaged in this critical issue, it can be a lonely road. But now Witten has company in Dallas. Moved to action by a series of recent slayings, Mayor Mike Rawlings announced the launch of a citywide awareness campaign to show that domestic violence — and the culture that ignores or perpetuates it — has no home in his city. He's hoping at least 10,000 men show up to rally with that message on Dallas' City Hall Plaza later this month. A drive to end domestic violence, led by men. It's an idea whose time has come, again and again; some men have been pushing it for decades. But now many are hearing the call. Related: Beyond vomiting, how to prevent rape . As Rawlings said in a recent press conference: "In the past this has been viewed as a women's issue, but it ain't. It's our problem." The problem is not confined to a shocking spate of killings in Dallas, or to one major U.S. city. The New York Police Department reportedly receives 700 domestic violence calls every day. Domestic violence costs the United States more than $9 billion a year. More than 603 million women live in countries where domestic violence is not a crime. Globally, at least one in three women and girls are beaten or sexually abused in their lifetimes, usually at the hands of men. What can men do? Men do not just need to stop being violent. The vast majority of men are not violent. But men do need to stop being silent. Calling violence against women, whether street harassment or sexual harassment or rape or murder, a "women's issue" allows men to ignore it as if we have no responsibility for it or stake in ending it. We all have grandmothers, mothers, sisters, daughters and female friends and colleagues. Our lives are inextricably interwoven; women's issues of safety and equality directly affect our lives as men. Beyond that, women are humans, with the same rights to safety and freedom as men. It is therefore our moral responsibility to not remain silent or passively on the sidelines, but to be actively engaged in confronting this problem in every corner of homes, communities and societies. Many men have already taken action. Men marched with women protesting December's notorious gang rape and murder in Delhi. Men worked with women to stop sexual abuse of women in Egypt's Tahrir Square. Men joined women in pushing for a serious response to allegations of gang rape in Steubenville, Ohio (and the social media vileness that followed). Here in New York, men have produced excellent videos calling on other men to stop street harassment. I've been working since 1994 to bring men in as leaders and partners in stopping violence against women. Today, I believe we stand on the brink of a global tipping point. From Dallas to Delhi, the world is paying attention. Now is the time to stand up. That's why I'm joining Breakthrough, the global human rights group, in its "One million men. One million promises campaign." Starting March 8, over one year we will secure promises from men around the world to take concrete action toward stopping violence against women. What can you do? You don't have to be a mayor or an NFL player to have a major impact. You don't have to be like the New York City firefighters who recently tackled the guy attacking his wife with a meat cleaver in broad daylight. Small — even non-"heroic" — actions add up. Challenge norms. Change culture. Make violence against women unacceptable. You can start with the discrimination and inequality that create the conditions in which violence happens. You can call out a friend who makes a comment that disrespects women. You can treat women well in front of boys and men who look up to you. We all, men and women, can reject the script that gets played out in media every day that tells our boys to be unemotional and violent while objectifying girls at increasingly younger ages. The profound presence of media in our lives has only led to young people being exposed earlier and more often to salacious and sexual content. This media bombardment desensitizes our boys and girls to the reality of violence that is anything but the subtext of a life. Our silence only validates that script. We can speak out against it. You can make sure your workplace's sexual harassment prevention polices are up to date. If you hear things getting violent next door, you can ring the bell or call the doorman or the cops. You can show that giving a damn about equality makes you a better man. You can do this. We can do this. Together, men and women can build a safer world for all. The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Don McPherson.
Don McPherson: Not enough men speak out against domestic violence against women . He says violence toward women affects men, too. Yet culture ignores, propagates it . He says campaign "One million men. One million promises," to draw attention to it . McPherson: Men can help in many small ways. Set example in treatment of women .

Editor's note: Maury Klein is professor emeritus of history at the University of Rhode Island. He is the author of 15 books, including "Rainbow's End: The Crash of 1929" and most recently "The Power Makers: Steam, Electricity, and the Men Who Made Modern America." Historian Maury Klein says it's important to remember that psychology plays a huge role in financial markets. (CNN) -- Friday marks the 79th anniversary of the day that launched the stock market crash of 1929. As an unprecedented wave of selling threw the floor of the New York Stock Exchange into pandemonium on a day that became known as Black Thursday, a show of organized support by a coterie of leading bankers halted the panic. But on the following Monday, the market collapsed in a tsunami of selling. Every intense convulsion of the stock market raises primal fears spawned by the Great Crash of 1929 and the ensuing Great Depression, which dragged on for a full decade and has haunted Americans ever since. The Panic of 2008 is no exception. In the past year, the market's fall has at times rivaled that of 1929. Are there connections or similarities between those earlier national traumas and our current crisis? First some facts about that earlier experience. The Great Crash and the Great Depression were two separate events. The Crash was a financial panic, the Depression an economic downturn. The one does not necessarily lead to the other; the market has collapsed several times in American history without bringing on a depression. Great Depression holds lessons for surviving a tough economy . The Crash began in October 1929, and the worst of it was over in three weeks; the Depression did not fasten itself on the nation for another year. To this day, the connection between them remains unclear, which makes it difficult to draw lessons or analogies from them. The Dow plunged 39 percent between October 23 and November 13, 1929, but it regained 74 percent of that loss by March 1930. Only when the economy failed to gain momentum in the spring did the market slip back. By fall the country had slipped into a depression, and the market resumed a downward course that did not touch bottom until July 1932. It did not again return to the levels of 1929 until 1954. The Depression did not end until increased military spending revived the economy in the spring of 1940. The bull market of the 1920s was unique in that it marked the first time large numbers of ordinary people participated. The market moved from Wall Street to Main Street and aroused intense interest even among people who were not active in it. The new investors, or "fish" as the pros called them, were prone to panic when the market fell sharply. Could it happen again? History never repeats itself, but historical patterns do -- though always in a new context. Here are just a few of the similarities and differences between the earlier crisis and its modern version. During the 1920s, the financial industry underwent a great expansion, bringing into the business many inexperienced people and new investment vehicles -- most notably the investment trust, the forerunner of the modern mutual fund. Nobody knew what impact they would have on the market with their buying and selling on a large scale. The business world hailed the 1920s as the "New Era," one with new rules in which the old pattern of cyclical depressions would no longer occur and prosperity would be continuous. Compare this delusion with the "New Economy" of the 1990s. The 1920s marked the beginning of the consumer economy, and with it a broad expansion of credit. Installment buying made its debut on a large scale. Credit also was used to buy stocks on margin, greatly increasing the market's volume and volatility. The banking system was shaky throughout the 1920s, and failures escalated steadily after 1929. The Crash exposed many cases of fraud that led to investigations and passage of the most significant banking reform in American history. The Glass-Steagall Act of 1933 created the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., or FDIC, gave rise to the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, and separated investment banks from commercial banks. The latter reform was repealed in 1999, giving banks free rein to perform both activities once again. Some differences between the eras are worth noting. Prior to 1933, the federal government played virtually no active role in relieving the banking crisis of the 1920s. The stock market did not have giant institutional buyers moving huge blocks of stock. Nor did it operate on a global scale, though it was deeply influenced by international events. After the crash, the banks had plenty of money to lend but no takers, the opposite of today's situation. Deflation became the mortal enemy as people removed their cash from banks and hoarded it. A familiar pattern emerged from these events. Business and the Republican Party in the 1920s demanded and got a "free" market unrestrained by government. Neither Wall Street nor the New York Stock Exchange was regulated by the government. The resulting disaster prompted outraged demands that Washington "do something." Regulation was then forthcoming. Later, as prosperity returned and the market began soaring, the restraints were gradually removed and the pattern of excess began anew until it collapsed once again in our own time. With the fall comes renewed pleas for government to "do something." Finally, it is important to remember that psychology plays a huge role in financial markets. Every panic has been at bottom a crisis of confidence. So too with the economy. As Frederick Lewis Allen observed, "Prosperity is more than an economic condition; it is a state of mind." The trick is always to find out what exactly is needed to restore it. We are still fishing for the answer to that riddle. The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Maury Klein.
Maury Klein: The 1929 market crash and the Depression were separate events . Many financial panics have not led to depressions, Klein says . Before 1933, the government wasn't active in trying to save banks, he says . After crisis, people demanded regulation, which eventually faded, Klein says .

He's an 82-year-old "redneck hillbilly from west North Carolina" who's been scratching an itch to go fast his whole life. Finally, after decades of racing high-performance speed boats and winning world-class endurance car competitions, Preston Henn got his hands on the fastest executive jet on the planet: the G650. CNN caught up with Henn by cell phone between practice laps at Daytona International Speedway. "As long as the cars here don't crank up, we can talk!" he said. From then on, Henn -- Florida's flea market kingpin -- sounded like a giddy schoolboy as he told his story about how he put down a $1 million deposit in April 2012 to become the first person to buy a Gulfstream G650 -- "the hottest airplane out there" --- with its distinctive, sweeping, curving wings and its roomy, swanky interior. It made him "feel like a million dollars," he said gleefully. For a plane that costs $65 million, feeling like $1 million might seem like a disappointment. But you get the picture. The jet's top speed: 704 mph -- nearly the speed of sound -- makes it arguably the world's fastest civilian aircraft. "I was just amazed at how quick it took off," says Henn. "And then it just went ZOOM -- straight up. I just sat back and drank a glass of wine and enjoyed it." Henn knows speed. He's been around the track a time or two -- winning the checkered flag during the '80s at the 24 Hours of Daytona and the 12 Hours event at Florida's Sebring International Raceway. He doesn't compete anymore. But he still travels around the world to race his friends. A super-fast G650 that can fly 8,000 statute miles -- farther than just about any other executive class jet -- might save him a lot of time and hassles. Saving time and avoiding hassles are the main reasons the rich and famous want to fly private. Oprah Winfrey and Bill Gates reportedly each own a Bombardier Global Express. Tom Cruise is said to have a Gulfstream IV. Jackie Chan has an Embraer Legacy 650. And Jay-Z reportedly received a Bombardier Challenger 850 from his wife, Beyonce, as a Father's Day gift. But none of these planes can smoke the G650. Speed aside, it's got goodies like no other jet in its class. In the cockpit: an infrared night-vision system projects a pilot windshield display, increasing safety during landings. In the cabin: bigger 28-inch-tall windows and a ceiling height of 6-and-a-half feet. "if you fly from here to Tokyo, you have to fly with two crews," Henn explains. The G650 has "a complete crew quarters and restrooms and galley and everything they need. So it's a different breed of cat from what I'm used to." Speed flows through Henn's family bloodline, dating back to his boyhood in Western North Carolina. His father raced speed boats and cars when he wasn't running movie theaters. As an adult in 1963, Henn bought a drive-in theater of his own in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. During the next half-century, that drive-in grew into the Swap Shop -- an 88-acre flea market and cash cow. Of course, Henn's not the lone lover of the G650. Reportedly, the plane has caught Oprah's eye as well. Also said to be interested are Hollywood media mogul David Geffen, designer Ralph Lauren and financial wizard Warren Buffett. Keep in mind that "very few celebrities own their own jets," says Doug Giese of Embraer Executive Jets. Owning a plane is still expensive, even if you're rich. Giese says most celebs fly private by using brokers or buying memberships in fractional share programs. Brokers . New Hampshire-based PJS Private Jet Services Group brokers private jets -- hooking planes up with passengers for a one-time, up-front price. "Private aviation is becoming more commonplace because there are more programs now," says PJS CEO Greg Raiff, a 23-year top broker whose business includes several college and professional sports teams. "Thanks to the Internet, there are now 500 companies that can arrange something for you." Typically, an aircraft that can fly about 10 passengers round trip from New York City to Los Angeles could cost about $54,000. A smaller jet that seats about seven might cost $26,000 round trip from Philadelphia to Austin, Texas. Split the cost among the passengers, and it's comparable to the price of some luxury cruises -- and a possible option to celebrate an important life-event such as a golden anniversary or a retirement party. Fractional shares . Fractional share programs such as NetJet have been around for a while, offering travelers the less expensive option of buying shares of a jet instead of buying the whole thing. Share programs often come with "jet cards." Prepay tens of thousands of dollars onto your card in exchange for the convenience of dialing an 800 number and ordering a jet. "That was a real industry game-changer," says Raiff. "It made booking a jet as easy as ordering a pizza." One downside, says Raiff: You have to pay well in advance. Many jet cards start at a minimum of $100,000, but Delta Private Jets offers a more affordable $25,000 card. Give them at least 48 hours notice, and they'll get you a plane, says DPJ President Cyril Turner. One upside, says Turner: You're protected against rising prices. "People can lock in today's rate even if there are future increases," Turner says. "With the cost of Jet A fuel approaching $6 a gallon and a burn rate approaching -- depending on the plane type -- 200 gallons an hour, that gets pretty costly." Delta Private Jets charges about $5,000 per hour for jets seating up to eight people. Rates start at $9,800 per hour for jets seating up to 14 people. BlackJet offers an even more creative idea: "semi-private" flying, CNNMoney reports. BlackJet books business class planes from carriers such as JetSelect and sells the seats individually. A BlackJet seat on a Challenger 300 from New York to L.A. might cost around $3,500. CNNMoney: BlackJet offers private jet seats for less . Development of the G650 survived a crisis in 2011, when one of the jets crashed during a takeoff performance test in New Mexico, killing two Gulfstream pilots and two flight test engineers. Federal investigators blamed Gulfstream's testing process. During the investigation, Gulfstream temporarily shut down its G650 test planes. But 17 months later, the G650 received FAA certification. Now, Gulfstream has more than 200 customers waiting to get their hands on a G650. So far, only about a half dozen have been delivered to customers. As they roll out, plane spotters are on site, snapping photos and posting them online. "If you call Gulfstream and ask, 'When can I get a G650?' It's four or five years off," says Henn. Unfortunately for Henn, enjoying his G650 won't be an option for the time being. Ultimately, he says, he's a businessman, and the plane is an investment. He leased the jet back to Gulfstream so the company can use it as a demonstration model. "It's on its way to China," Henn says. "It's supposedly going to set a round-the-world record." There's a hint of disappointment in Henn's voice, above the sounds of revving engines at the Daytona track. "Sorry, it's time to get back to it," he explains. His Enzo Ferrari is beckoning. "I'm going to take my Enzo back out on the track, and then I'm finished for today," he says. "Then I'm going back to work."
Aviation fans are excited about the new, super-fast and stylish Gulfstream G650 . Oprah, Ralph Lauren, Warren Buffett are said to be interested in the $65 million plane . Businesses aim to make flying private more affordable . Beyonce reportedly gave Jay-Z a Challenger 850 as a present .

One of the country's most important Jacobean houses that has been used as a police training college for decades has been put up for sale by the Home Office for £25m. Built in 1612, Bramshill House, near Hook in Hampshire, boasts a lake, two chapels and world-class training facilities, not to mention the 329 bedrooms. The Home Office says it is selling because the historic mansion and its 300-acre grounds cost £5m a year to run, but the police have been heavily criticised for their lavish spending on the historic estate. Bramshill House in Hampshire, which the Home Office is selling for £25m, was built in 1612 and sits in 300 acres . The Home Office bought the Jacobean mansion in 1953 and have used it as a police training college . In 2011 the National Policing Improvement Agency (NPIA) was slammed for spending more than £18,000 of taxpayers' cash on the mansion and its grounds, including £1,800 on a beehive and cultivator for the kitchen garden, and £147 on rhododendrons. And the year before that, the agency was revealed to have spent £750,000 on restoring an ornamental bridge - a 1940s folly - in the grounds. The NPIA also spent £2m resurfacing a mile-long stretch of the drive there, and spent £31,000 on a black tie dinner for officers at Bramshill in September 2007. The Home Office has used the Grade I-listed property, which at 43,000sq ft would be one of the largest homes in the UK, since 1953 as a training centre for police. The site also houses the British National Police Library, the largest policing library in Europe, the National Missing Persons Bureau, and the Serious Crime Analysis Centre. The mansion, which was built between 1605 and 1615, has 15 bedrooms, a long gallery, chapel, lounges, a mezzanine and a number of 'magnificent state rooms' which have now been converted into banqueting halls. Grandeur: But such elegance comes at a price: the Home Office says Bramshill costs £5m a year to run . Away from the Jacobean mansion, there . are a number of purpose built buildings which include two bars, 58 staff houses, two . restaurants, a sports hall and 231 en-suite bedrooms. The address dates back to the Domesday Book when it was known as the estate of 'Bromeselle' and held by Hugh De Port. By the 14th century the Foxleys owned the estate and in 1347 Sir Thomas Foxley Constable of Windsor Castle was granted permission to enclose 2,500 acres of land as a deer park at Bramshill and Hazeley. Between 1351 and 1360 Sir Thomas also 'erected a noble mansion at Bramshill', possibly using tradesmen from Windsor. In 1605, the estate was acquired by Cambridge-educated Edward, 11th Lord Zouche of Harringworth. As the ambassador to Scotland and Lord President of the Council of Wales, Zouche needed a large country mansion to make a statement that he was a force to be reckoned with, and so reconstructed the house between 1605 and 1615. King James visited in 1620 and the Archbishop of Canterbury in 1621 and it was also used for a first class cricket match between England and Hampshire in 1823 with the county side winning by five wickets. Bramshill was used as a maternity home during World War Two and afterwards as a shelter for the exiled King of Romania. Emma Cleugh of estate agents Knight Frank, who are selling the house and grounds, said: 'Bramshill's rich history is part of its appeal but also its modern facilities bring it right into the 21st century. 'Bramshill represents an unequalled opportunity to the market - whether for continued institutional/training/educational uses or alternative uses and further development.'

By . Daily Mail Reporter . Two Romanians caught attempting to smuggle Afghan migrants across the Channel to Britain in the boots of their cars have been jailed by a court in Boulogne on the French coast. Ionica Doru Cicea, 22, was arrested on Monday in Calais after two women were discovered in the boot of his Volkswagen Passat. A second man, Dumitru Vaduva, aged 60, was handed over to the French authorities by British Border Police after they found a three year old child accompanied by his parents - again in the boot of a car, a Citroen Picasso. Smuggling: The two men were jailed for smuggling Afghans in their boot. Pictured is the scene at Calais this week, where would-be migrants try their luck on lorries headed over the border . The court heard that investigators established links between the two cases. On both the phones of the two defendants the same number - of a man living in Britain known as ‘Christie’- was found. At first Christie was believed to be Indian but later turned out to be Romanian. He allegedly paid the smugglers to drive the migrants onto the ferry and across the Channel. The court heard that a third vehicle accompanied the two defendant’s cars and was intending to monitor the operation. The migrants were allowed to sit on the back seat of the vehicles but as they approached border control posts they were ordered to get into the boot where breathing was difficult in the confined space. One of the defendants was paid £800 for his part in the operation and the other was told he could keep the car he used for the operation. The judge was told that Vaduva has a previous conviction in 2002. Operation: The court heard that three cars were involved in the smuggling attempt. Pictured above are more hopefuls camped outside Calais . He jailed Cicea for 10 months and Vaduva for one year. A source in Boulogne confirmed last night that the migrants were all of Afghan nationality and had been released after questioning. The Boulogne prosecutor told the court: ‘The family of three persons (parents plus child) had been arrested and questioned by Police three times in ten days. ‘Needless to say,that the smugglers who took them belong doubtless to the same organisation. The two defendants knew exactlywhat they were doing. ‘Otherwise why didn’t they put them on board a Eurolines coach? Of course the bad people are the ones that are not present here in court today. They are the enforcers who belong to a criminal organisation. In the pursuit of gain, everything including standards of good behaviour, comes second.’

Blighted: Simon Ellis of Crowders . The Government is to be sued for more than £200,000 in damages by the country’s biggest grower of native trees over the delays in handling the outbreak of ash dieback disease. Robert Crowder, chairman and owner of Crowders Nurseries in Horncastle, Lincolnshire, has had to destroy 50,000 ash trees and is blaming three months of dithering and delay by  officials for his losses. He is furious that plant health officials who identified about 15 infected trees at his nursery in June issued an emergency order that prevented him from touching or removing the trees. It meant the disease spread like wildfire. Several hundred trees became infected before officials took any further action and on September 17 he was given just six weeks to destroy all 50,000 ash trees. Mr Crowder is also angry that the Government ignored warnings about the potential impact of the disease that the Horticultural Trades Association has been making since 2009. The Government has ruled out paying compensation for loss of diseased ash trees, but Mr Crowder, whose firm grows five million trees a year, is preparing to challenge this. He said: ‘We intend to take legal action. Officials have been slow to react to the potential danger of the disease.’ Officials turned up at the 200-year-old family firm in June. They had identified an infected tree in Leicester that had been supplied by Crowders and wanted to check other trees. Simon Ellis, marketing director at Crowders, said: ‘We were genuinely surprised. We could not understand where the disease came from. ‘We grow from English seed and occasionally if we have storm or flood damage we buy in extra stock from English suppliers. Threat: Ash trees across the UK are endangered by dieback disease . Destroyed: The uprooted ash trees at the nursery . ‘It was only this summer we found out our supplier sent his young ash saplings to the Continent to grow and we bought 10,000 of them. Some went to Leicester for a park-and-ride scheme. ‘The usual advice when you get  disease in a tree is you lift it out of the ground and then you burn it. ‘They came at the end of June and found about 15 infected trees. But the officials did not know what to do. We waited and waited.’ On July 19 the firm received a notice. Mr Ellis said he expected this to be the order to destroy the trees. ‘But the notice stated the trees must not be pruned, lopped, trimmed or moved until further notice,’ he said. Horse-riders were urged to wash mud from their animals’ hooves to avoid spreading the disease. It was feared that their mounts could carry the fungus spores from one woodland to another. As the hunt season started this weekend, there were concerns that dogs from more than 200 packs of foxhounds, stag hounds and beagles  could move the spores across the countryside. Environment Secretary Owen Paterson said: ‘Everyone should be responsible.’ However, Defra said it would not impose any temporary bans on hunts. ‘Again we waited and were worried about the delays. Then on September 19 we got the destruction notice. By then several hundred trees were infected. ‘Then they decided we needed to get rid of all our ash trees, and there were 50,000 of them. We pulled them up and burnt them within two weeks, but we have lost at least £200,000. ‘We still can’t understand why they didn’t let us destroy the infected  trees in June. ‘The problem is that officials are  not experienced in recognising the disease or knowing what to look for.’ Crowders is one of 12 nurseries where the disease has been found in ash trees. But according to Mr Ellis it is the only nursery named in emails circulated by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) to other organisations involved in handling the outbreak. Mr Ellis said: ‘We are also going to sue for loss of reputation because we are aggrieved our company name is being repeatedly mentioned and linked to infected sites.’ A Defra spokesman said: ‘The 1967 Plant Health Act allows for an option of compensation for plant disease but there is no legal obligation. At a time when our trees face increasing threat from a range of diseases and when we are seeking to maintain tight controls on spending and reduce the deficit, it is our view  that resources are best spent on surveillance and other preventative disease-management activities.’ Two years ago I was in Kyoto, Japan. In the mountain woods around the city, about one-tenth of the trees had suddenly died within  six months, but not because anyone had failed to keep the Kyoto Protocol on climate change. Pines – much-loved historic trees in Japan – had been killed by a microscopic worm from America. Oaks, including a species closely related to English oak, had been slaughtered by a mysterious new fungus disease and the insect that conveys it. No one knew where it came from. What can I say about the new ash disease? I told you so. It fits a pattern that has been known, but not heeded, since my student days. I have been saying this for more than ten years in lectures and articles, and in my New Naturalist book Woodlands, published in 2006. The gravest threat to the world’s trees and forests is not people cutting down trees, nor climate change, nor even too many deer: it is globalisation of tree diseases. Most native plant diseases and pests have existed for millions  of years alongside their local host plants, which have come to terms with them, so they do only limited damage. This breaks down when people, usually inadvertently, bring them into contact with new host plants that are not adapted to them. Evolution does not provide an answer, because plants, especially trees, have long generation times. Fungi and worms can run rings round them in evolutionary terms. Plant diseases are being moved around the world and are subtracting tree after tree at random from lands that have no previous experience of them. I could quote 20 examples: European elm disease in America, the American vine pests and diseases that very nearly killed off wine-making in Europe, sweet-chestnut disease in Europe and America, etc. England has had alder disease, and the micro-caterpillar that turns horse-chestnut leaves brown, among others, but so far we been let off lightly, compared with Japan or Australia. Globalisation has gone into top gear in the past 40 years through the growth of international trade. Some of the responsibility lies with the tree-planting movement. Since 1973 (remember the Plant a Tree in 73 campaign?) planting ‘native’ trees has become institutional, with contracts to be bid for, work to be finished on time and budgets to be spent by the end of the financial year. An industry has arisen, geared to human administrators, which clashes with the behaviour of trees and their parasites. If English oak trees haven’t produced acorns this year, the contractor cannot wait until  next year but goes to a country where acorns are available. This stimulates a trade in living plants. Anyone importing a million container-grown hawthorns from Hungary – as if there were not enough hawthorns in Britain – inevitably imports 1,000 tons of Hungarian soil and whatever is in it. Planting imported trees, even if the original seed was ‘local’, carries a risk for existing trees. At a conference in Ireland in 2004, I remarked that the Irish had had enough experience of imported plant disease – the calamitous potato famine from 1845, caused by a fungus that fell off an American ship – to last them 1,000 years. The man from the Ministry got up and bleated that nothing could be done because this would restrict trade and the World Trade Organization would not allow it. Little seems to be definitely known about ash disease: nobody knows where the fungus came from, how it travels, how long it has been here, or even how many of the trees are killed. The fungus kills the shoots, and the tree produces a bunch of replacement shoots – but this can happen from other causes as well. Perfect health is not the normal state of trees. Ash disease is difficult to recognise, indeed probably impossible until next spring, now that most ash leaves have fallen. What is to be done? Probably nothing effective in the present state of ignorance. Talk of exterminating ash trees within 20 miles of an infection cannot be taken seriously given the vast numbers of trees and the practical difficulty of finding and destroying them – and the need to repeat the performance every time ash disease is detected, until there are no ash trees left. It seems that any of the world’s plant diseases is at liberty to enter Britain provided it does so via some other European Union country. By the time the problem has been detected and the bureaucracy has clanked into action, it is too late. Once a tree disease has become established in a country, it is almost unknown for it to be controlled, let alone exterminated. One piece of good news: the Forestry Commission’s pathology research establishment at Alice Holt has been revived after years of decline. It is badly needed. Oliver Rackham is a botanist and historical ecologist, and a Fellow of Corpus Christi  College, Cambridge.
The biggest grower in UK blames Forestry officers for fatal delay after his warning . He is left devastated as he burns  trees – and now he’s suing for huge losses .

by the country’s biggest grower of native trees delay by  officials for his losses. He is furious published in 2006. The gravest threat to the behaviour of trees and their parasites. If
By . James Forsyth . The morning after Ed Miliband’s conference speech, David Cameron and his speechwriting team gathered at Chequers. The Prime Minister was in bullish mood. Unlike several of his Cabinet colleagues, he wasn’t overly concerned by Miliband’s raid on ‘One Nation’ Tory territory. He joked: ‘It’s impressive to give a speech for 70 minutes without notes; it’s even more impressive to give a speech for 70 minutes without notes and not say anything.’ Cameron’s crack is typical of his new attitude. The Prime Minister has finally heeded the pleas of many of his closest allies and made himself and his Downing Street operation more political. Conservative Party chairman Grant Shapps and London Mayor Boris Johnson . New Tory Chairman Grant Shapps, unlike his predecessor Baroness Warsi, attends the two key No 10 meetings of the day at 8.30am and 4pm. This ensures the party-political perspective is heard before decisions are taken. This more political approach will be evident in Cameron’s conference speech on Wednesday. He’ll argue his opponents don’t understand how to make Britain economically competitive. He’ll also try to show voters who want to get on that he understands that aspiration is the spur to success. Cameron’s party is increasingly focused on a strategy for winning a majority in 2015. The initial findings were presented to Tory Cabinet Ministers last month and to key aides at the party’s campaign headquarters last week. Outright victory has been made far harder by the Liberal Democrats’ refusal to back Tory efforts to reduce pro-Labour bias in the electoral system. But those working on the strategy – the Prime Minister’s political secretary Stephen Gilbert, his director of strategy Andrew Cooper and Shapps – believe that there are reasons for optimism. First, they think the Nineties phenomenon of ‘shy Tories’ – people not being prepared to say they are voting for the party – has returned. They calculate that the party’s true level of support could be five points or more above what headline figures suggest. Second, they are confident that incumbency gives them an advantage. Their analysis of the last Election result shows sitting MPs tended to be insulated against the national swing. Third, they think they can be more targeted. In 2010, the Tories were trying to take 160 seats. This time, they are looking at just 40. I’m told the list will include more than ten Lib Dem seats. The economy remains the key to victory in 2015, however. In his speech tomorrow, George Osborne will set out tax breaks designed to boost growth. However, on Europe little will be said. One insider ascribes this to the influence of Cabinet Secretary Jeremy Heywood. ‘You can’t talk about Europe in No 10 without Jeremy jumping down your throat,’ I’m told. Cameron will have to say more soon. For his party wants two things from him: an understanding of how he intends to win next time and a clear lead on Europe. Providing these will be the best way to unite Tories around him. Wordsmith: Speechwriter Clare Foges . David Cameron’s conference speech is the first big challenge for his new chief speechwriter, Clare Foges. Foges, who took on the job last . month following the move of  her predecessor Julian Glover  to the . Department for Transport, drafted the speech pretty  much . single-handedly. Foges, who is in her early 30s, has . risen quickly though the Tory ranks. She previously worked for MP  John . Hayes and Boris Johnson. At the start of her career, she supplemented . her salary by driving an ice-cream van. She’s been writing for Cameron . since 2008. After the Election, she followed him into No 10, where she . is respected for her ability to capture the Prime Minister’s voice, . knowing how he  would choose to say something. Boris Johnson might be going to Tory conference for only 24 hours but, to the concern of many in Downing Street, he’s still set to be the centre of attention. One No 10 aide says, only  half-jokingly: ‘At least we know where the trouble will come from.’ There’s also anger at one of Boris’s people claiming he turned down five invitations to Chequers before accepting one last weekend. Cameron is, strikingly, doing a series of TV interviews on Tuesday, both the day of the London Mayor’s speech and the Prime Minister’s birthday. I suspect the present he really wants is for Boris to behave. Ed Miliband and his team are planning a ¿One Nation¿ trip across Britain designed to ram home the message of his conference address . First there was the speech, then there was the tour. Ed Miliband and his team are planning a ‘One Nation’ trip across Britain designed to ram home the  message of his conference address. I understand the Labour leader is keen to show he is prepared to go to places where his party has long been absent, to show he’s serious in his intent to represent the whole country. One stop will be in a solidly Tory seat hit by rapidly rising rail fares. Miliband also wants to visit a constituency particularly affected by immigration. He knows that the last Labour Government’s failure on this issue has hurt the party badly. I’m informed that he wants to set out  a comprehensive new policy, including restrictions on low-skilled migration from within the European Union. This would pose a particular challenge to the Tories  as EU workers are not included in the Government’s immigration cap. Another part of the ‘One Nation’ message  is the fight for the union. Those close to  the Labour leader are urging him to take the battle to the Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond’s backyard and head to Aberdeenshire to make his case that Scotland should remain part of the United Kingdom. Yet Miliband needs more policy to accompany his new rhetoric. I understand there will be a Shadow Cabinet away-day later this month to thrash out proposals. He is still a long way from persuading the public that Labour would handle the nation’s finances competently. But the success of this conference has given him a political opening. Prime Minister Miliband is now a possibility that needs to be taken seriously.
David Cameron unperturbed by Ed Miliband's 'One Nation' speech . Says he is more impressed that Ed performed without notes for 70 minutes . Tory leader has rallied his top speech-writing troops to prepare a strategy focused clearly on politics and the economy to win the election - elements the Tories say are lacking from the Labour party's campaign .

By . Anthony Bond . PUBLISHED: . 05:54 EST, 31 July 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 07:33 EST, 31 July 2013 . Working in dark, cramped conditions in barren deserts often attacked by fierce sandstorms, these pictures show the brutal and uncompromising work of Sudan's gold miners. Supported by weak-looking pulleys, workers lower themselves into the deep, dark mines, which appear like huge crevasses in the middle of the desert. As those on the surface battle brutal storms and temperatures reaching 44C to hunt for gold with detectors, others lower themselves into the dangerous underground pits. Tough conditions: A gold mine worker searches for gold inside a local mine in Al-Ibedia locality at River Nile State in Sudan . Cramped: The man works in tough, cramped conditions in unremitting heat. He uses basic tools to dig for gold, barely able to turn his body . Difficult: This picture shows just how dark and claustrophobic the conditions are below ground . Using flimsy-looking pulleys, gold mine workers lower themselves into the deep  mines, left. Once inside, and wearing just basic headlamps, they search for the precious commodity. This man, right, displays a gold rock . The miners are part of a 60,000 strong workforce in South Sudan who take part in the back-breaking work, often because of widespread hunger. These images show miners working in the Al-Ibedia area at River Nile State. Miners are lowered into the pits on flimsy-looking pulleys held together by wood. The holes are so narrow, they can barely turn around. Wearing no safety jackets or helmets, the miners have just a headlamp to guide them in the bleak darkness. Once at the bottom of the mines, they use a variety of basic-looking tools to dig for the valuable commodity, in hot, and unremitting conditions. As the miners dig and search for long hours, above ground,  makeshift camps are created in which other workers prepare to deal with the findings from below. Fierce: Above ground, workers prepare for their day's work in shelters, which are often battered by brutal sandstorms . Basic: The mines appear as long, slim crevasses in the ground . The pulleys which the workers use to lower themselves down into are supported by planks of wood . Dangerous: The conditions are brutal, with the miners not wearing helmets or protective clothing . Valuable: The mines are dark and claustrophobic but the rewards for those who find gold are huge . Hard work: A gold mine worker lifts a bag down into one of the pits . Workers sift the earth, looking for any sign of gold. Others operate large gold crushing machines and weigh their findings to check on their value. Gold mining is big business in Sudan, particularly in the south. The land is endowed with many resources, many of which are undiscovered.  As well as gold, there is also believed to be copper, uranium and marble. But with this comes numerous problems, including smuggling. It was estimated recently that South Sudan loses $200m a year through gold smuggling. Temporary: The gold rocks which are discovered below ground are crushed by teams of workers in these makeshift camps . Hunt: Above ground, workers search for other areas to mine using detectors .

Search: The gold which is discovered below ground is sent to the top where it is sifted by another team of workers . This worker displays some of the findings .

It was almost as if David Moyes had borrowed some of the magic of the FA Cup on Sunday night at Anoeta as his Real Sociedad played at being giant-killers and took the scalp of Barcelona. On one of the greatest nights of his managerial career Moyes masterminded a 1-0 win with the side he took over last November seeing off Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar in style. He was given a helping hand by opposing coach Luis Enrique who bizarrely left Messi out of his starting line-up – perhaps the Barca coach was also paying homage to the world’s oldest club cup competition by resting his most important players. VIDEO Scroll down for all the Big Match Stats as David Moyes delivers a giant killing . Luis Suarez (left) looks on as Real Sociedad players celebrate taking an early lead as La Liga resumed after the winter break . David Moyes' side had previously beaten Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid at the Anoeta Stadium this season . Andres Iniesta (centre) retreats back to the centre circle as Barcelona missed the chance to move top of La Liga . Real Sociedad (4-2-3-1): Rulli; C. Martinez, Ansotegi, I. Martinez, De La Bella; Markel, Granero; Xabi Prieto, Canales (Yuri 90+3), Castro (Finnbogason 66); Vela (Ruben Pardo 90) Substitutes not used: Zubikarai, Gaztanaga, Elustondo, Pablo Hervias . Scorer : Alba (own goal) 2 . Booked: Vela, Martinez, Granero, Markel . Barcelona (4-3-3): Bravo; Montoya, Mascherano, Mathieu (Alves 70), Alba; Xavi, Busquets, Iniesta; Munir (Messi 45), Suarez, Pedro (Neymar 58) Substitutes not used: Stegen, Pique, Rakitic, Rafinha . Booked: Mathieu, Alves, Neymar . That strange team sheet which also included Neymar, Gerard Pique, Dani Alves and Ivan Rakitic on the bench was the first shock of the night, the second came after just one minute when a header from Jordi Alba went flying past his own keeper to give Real Sociedad the lead. Barca came into the game having picked up just one of a possible 12 points in their last four visits to Anoeta. They were facing a Real Sociedad side who had already beaten Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid at home. Luis Enrique’s side now needed a goal but with top scorer in the league Messi (15 goals) on the bench and Neymar, Barca's second highest league scorer with 1, alongside him that was always going to be more difficult. This was not the way for Barcelona to take advantage of Real Madrid having lost to Valencia in the earlier Sunday game giving them the chance to go top. Luis Suarez was looking for his second league goal of the season and might have fancied his chances from a free-kick on 20 minutes but Xavi took the set-piece and sent it over the bar. Suarez then charged through on goal but played in Pedro who squandered the chance. The former Liverpool striker cut a frustrated figure in an attack between Pedro and youngster Munir El Haddadi. It wasn’t what he signed up for when he made his £75million pound switch in the summer. Suarez played in Pedro again but this time the winger crossed and when the ball hit Inigo Martinez on the arm Suarez appealed but the referee waved away the calls for a penalty. Luis Enrique controversially left out the likes of Lionel Messi (second left), Gerard Pique and Dani Alves (right) from the Barca starting XI .

Real Sociedad's Prieto (centre) and Sergio Canales (right) leap for joy as a dejected Suarez tries to appeal . Real Sociedad almost made the most of the stroke of good fortune going down the other end and nearly doubling their lead. Full-back Alberto de la Bella admitted recently that Moyes has been encouraging him to overlap a-la Leighton Baines and the defender flew down the left and crossed for Xabi Prieto who just failed to connect under pressure from Jordi Alba. It was the perfect chance to make it 2-0 but there was another scare for Barça moments after. Sergio Canales pulled off a clever turn that left Martin Montoya on the seat of his shorts and the former Real Madrid man shot at Claudio Bravo only for the one-time Real Sociedad keeper to palm the effort away. Vela then charged through and was booked for diving, the former Arsenal man had gone down under a challenge from Javier Mascherano. With two minutes left of the first half and Messi already warming up Barca had their first shot on target but it came from distance from Pedro and was comfortably saved by Geronimo Rulli. Real Sociedad supporters whistled match official Carlos del Cerro Grande off the pitch at half time after he booked Inigo Martinez in injury time for handling as he stopped Suarez going past him. The ball did not appear to have touched the defender as he went to ground. All Barça eyes were on Messi ready to make his delayed entrance at the start of the second half. He replaced Munir on 45 minutes and Neymar replaced Pedro on the hour – once the Brazilian had removed his necklace. He was perhaps not expecting to come on having had the least rest during the midwinter break. Despite the changes it was Real Sociedad who looked like scoring next with Prieto heading just over after Bravo had failed to come for a cross. Messi tried to bundle his way through at the other end as the visitors did their best to get a foothold back in the game. He took the next sent piece but came no closer than Xavi had in the first half. Alves was thrown on too and with Barca switching to three at the back Real Sociedad needed some heroic defending to see out the second half but with Inigo Martinez superbly marshaling the troops Moyes men did exactly that. Suarez had the best chance but was brilliantly denied by Rulli. After so many headlines about Moyes’ future at Manchester United, on Monday morning the inquests will all be for his rival Enrique. The Spaniard’s job is in doubt. Moyes has won his first big game in Spain and is settling in very nicely indeed. 12 months ago, David Moyes was reeling after Manchester United were dumped out of the FA Cup at the first hurdle by Swansea City. A last-minute goal by Wilfried Bony secured a 2-1 win at Old Trafford after Javier Hernandez equalised a Wayne Routledge opener.

(CNN) -- David Bill isn't annoyed when Twitter gets so bogged down with traffic that he can't post a message. Twitter's "fail whale," which appears when the site is overrun, is so popular it's on T-shirts and even tattoos. That's because in the moment when frustration would hit, he's greeted on the popular Web site by a cartoonish image he loves: a giant whale being lifted out of an ocean by a small flock of tweeting birds. The icon -- which Twitter users call it the "fail whale" because the creature appears only when the site has failed to load -- has gained a cult following as the social media site grows at breakneck pace. The conversational Web site, which lets users post 140-character microblogs, saw a 1,374 percent jump in unique visitors between February 2008 and February this year, up to 7 million from only 475,000, according to Nielsen NetView. By comparison, Facebook grew 228 percent, to 65.7 million users, during the same period. With all of those new Twitterers, fail whale sightings and site crashes seem more frequent. Bill (mr_bill on Twitter) and other fail-whale followers aren't bothered, though. The 36-year-old San Franciscan has organized parties in honor of the whale. The most recent, held in California in February, was attended by more than 300 people, including Yiying Lu, the artist in Australia who created the image. Bill says the whale represents a contrarian philosophy. "It's sort of an adorable whale but also this thing that represents the Herculean tasks that we sometimes go about from day to day," he said. "We're all trying to do a lot of things that seem pretty impossible," Bill said. "It's nice to identify something positive with those failures." Not every Twitterer is sympathetic to the site's troubles, though. Some users say Twitter has outgrown its core audience and is irrelevant to the technophiles who made it popular in the first place. Others are annoyed by the flood of spammers and profiteers who now use the site's popularity to make a buck. Celebrities and members of Congress have been jumping onto the site in recent months, adding to the site's mainstream popularity and, some users say, causing glitches in the system. "I keep getting the fail whale. Twitter got too popular too quickly. I blame Shaq," wrote Jessica Roy, a 21-year-old New York University student who goes by suchamessica on Twitter. Basketball player Shaquille O'Neal, or THE_REAL_SHAQ, has more than 470,000 followers on the site. Nova Spivack, a blogger whose article "Can Twitter Survive What is About to Happen to It?" has been passed around the site, said a rift is developing between Twitter's original "in crowd" and its newer, more mainstream users. Early adopters find many of the new users annoying, he said. "A lot of people come in, and they take that 'What are you doing?' question literally, and so they put very inane things on Twitter," he said. iReport.com: How do you feel about tweets and status updates? The site used to feel "insulated" from the mainstream, and now it doesn't, he said. But for all the complaints, there seem to be just as many people who are almost excited about Twitter's growing pains. It is inevitable that a Web site seeing Twitter-style growth would face some glitches and a backlash from early adopters, said Laura Fitton, a consultant and co-author of the book "Twitter for Dummies." "There's going to be all kinds of people using it all kinds of different ways," she said. "The purists can go pound rocks." Major news such as the Mumbai terrorist attacks and the Hudson River plane landing has broken over Twitter, and that's added to the site's popularity, she said. Amy Gahran, who writes on social media at contentious.com, said the backlash against Twitter stems from the fact that people are uncomfortable with change. Early users see new people coming to the site, and that creeps them out, but it shouldn't, she said. "Change is freaking good," she said. "Roll with it." As the site gets filled with fresh users, people are creating pieces of software to help Twitterers sort through the noise, Gahran said. She said Twitter is popular because it mimics real-life conversation and because it's easy to use. She also expects Twitter to expand, especially as people in developing countries use cell-phone text messages to communicate through the site. "People talk. That's what we do," she said. "We're social creatures. We're kind of wired for this." Twitter says it is addressing breakdowns in that wired communication. "We have made amazing progress from a technical perspective as far as accommodating this rapid growth goes and will continue to improve system and subsystem performance moving forward," Twitter co-founder Biz Stone wrote in a statement to CNN. Critter Gewlas of Cary, North Carolina, believes so much in the site's ability to overcome adversity that he recently got a tattoo of the fail whale on his leg. "The site itself has suffered a few scrapes and bumps along the way, but for the most part, I definitely think it's a good thing," said the 36-year-old. The fail whale's account on Twitter has more than 2,265 followers. A Facebook group dedicated to the whale has more than 4,400 members. The whale has spawned art and merchandise, from coffee mugs to baby clothes. A Current.com parody of the whale has spun around the Internet, too. Bill, whose fail whale parties have featured an aquamarine martini in honor of the icon's color, said the whale's popularity comes from the idea that failures are worth celebrating and learning from. Twitter will use that philosophy to continue to grow, he said. "Twitter is a powerful enough thing that it should succeed in a broad way, and I would like it to succeed in a broad way," he said.

Other rally around the "fail whale," an icon of the site's shortcomings . Site users host parties in honor of the whale; one even has a tattoo of the image .

Gabon’s dangerous front three combined to put them in control of Group A, as Burkina Faso, finalists in 2013, were punished for being wasteful in front of goal. Borussia Dortmund forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang put the hosts ahead in the first half, before Charlton winger Frederic Bulot provided for Malick Evouna to seal the result with a header 20 minutes from time. It puts Gabon top of the group, after hosts Equatorial Guinea drew with Congo in the day’s earlier game. Gabon's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang celebrates the opener against Burkina Faso in Bata, Equatorial Guinea . The Borissia Dortmund star was on target to put his side top of Group A in the Africa Cup of Nations 2015 . Plenty of locals stayed behind in the Estadio de Bata for the second game, and they saw Burkina Faso start the brighter. In fact, the Stallions could easily have scored three or four in an open first half. Burkina Faso: Sanou; Koffi, Yago, Kone (Nakoulma 77), Bambara; Djakaridja , Kabore,; Zongo (Bance), A. Traore, B. Traore; Pitroipa . Gabon: Ovono; Palun, Masavu-King, Ecuele Manga, Obiang; Ndong (Kaku 63 mins), Poko, Madinda (Mbingui 83); Bulot, Evouna (Boukamba 87), Aubameyang . Booked: Ndong 40, Bulot 53 . Goals: Aubameyang 19, Evouna 72 . Bertrand Traore, the Vitesse winger on loan from Chelsea, was the beneficiary of a defensive mix-up, but his stinging volley was palmed away by Gabon stopper Didier Ovono. Alain Traore was the next to be denied, a last-ditch block preventing him from getting a shot away when well-placed inside the penalty area. The pace of Jonahan Pitroipa was a constant threat in behind, and in the 19th minute he escaped the Gabonese defence and skipped around Ovono, but, having been forced wide, was unable to find a team-mate. Just seconds later, Burkino Faso’s wastefulness was punished. Levy Madinda slid a lovely ball down the right hand channel for Gabon’s Borussia Dortmund star Aubameyang, who gave Pitroipa a lesson in staying calm in front of goal. Gabon's Malick Evouma (centre) rises the highest to head in his side's second goal of the game . Although Aubameyang’s first shot was saved, he took his time with the rebound, commiting the covering defenders before firing into the roof of the net for his sixth goal in his last four games for Gabon. Pitroipa, the leading goalscorer in all Cup of Nations qualifying, continued to have chances, but just couldn’t show the same finishing touch as Aubameyang. On the half-hour mark Jonathan Zongo got free down the left hand side and fed the ball across to his striker, unmarked on the edge of the box. But Pitroipa could only fire straight at the keeper. Again, he was very nearly punished immediately. Moments later Ibrahim Ndong latched on to an over-hit cut-back and fired just wide with the keeper well beaten. Burkina Faso continued to create chances, and yet another glorious one fell to Pitroipa, when Alain Traore’s scuffed shot fell to him five yards out. Again, however, the Al Jazira striker was denied by Ovono. Gabon's Didier Ibrahim Ndong (centre) defends against Burkina Faso's Jonathan Zongo (right) The second period started slowly, but both Bulot and Bertrand Traore had good chances, the former volleying straight at the keeper when well placed, and the latter seeing a cheeky attempt to squeeze the ball in at the near post kicked away, following a strong run from the left. Aubameyang could have added a second in the 68th minute, but after being played in down the left hand channel by Evouna, the Gabon captain curled his shot just wide. It didn’t matter though, because just four minutes later Charlton winger Bulot showed quick feet down on the right wing, beating his man and sending in an inviting cross for Evouna to head home. Bulot forced Germain Sanou into a good save in stoppage time, as Gabon saw out the remainder in relative comfort.

Serena Williams kicks off her campaign for a sixth Australian Open title against Belgian Alison Van session at Melbourne Park on Thursday . Maria champion Victoria Azarenka works hard during American Sloane Stephens in the first round
By . David Derbyshire . PUBLISHED: . 19:01 EST, 6 November 2012 . | . UPDATED: . 01:18 EST, 7 November 2012 . There are few things more depressing on a car journey than the ‘flud, flud, flud’ sound of a flat tyre. You invariably seem to get a puncture when it’s dark, when it’s raining and when the car is laden with tired kids, luggage and a front seat passenger reluctant to get their hands dirty, but unusually eager to point out what you’re doing wrong. Changing a spare tyre is hassle enough, but in recent years, coping with a flat has become even more stressful. For without fanfare, motor manufacturers have begun to phase them out. There are few things more depressing on a car journey than hearing the 'flud, flud, flud' sound of a flat tyre says, David Derbyshire . Each year, tens of thousands of stranded drivers lift up the boot carpets of new cars looking for a spare and a jack, only to discover a ‘tyre repair kit’ – an electric pump, a bottle of sealant and instructions written by someone with only a passing familiarity with cars and the English language. I have to admit I know almost nothing about car repair. Ask me to change a spark plug and I’m baffled. Tell me my ‘big end’ has gone and I’ll probably call the doctor. But I do know how to change a spare tyre, and that admittedly basic knowledge is a badge of pride. I know about loosening the nuts before jacking up the car. I know where to fit the jack. And I know how to give a withering look when someone offers an opinion. So I resent car manufacturers making my one car-related skill redundant. And they are making it redundant in force. Out of the top ten best-selling cars in Britain, only the Volkswagen Golf now comes with a full spare tyre as standard. Lucky owners of top-of-the-range new cars get skinny space-saving spare . tyres that take up less room in the boot, but which will keep them going . for 50 miles or so until the driver can get home or to a garage. A few . find their cars are delivered kitted with four ‘run-flat tyres’ — tyres . with strengthened walls that stay hard even when the air has escaped. But the unfortunate ones — the owners of the bottom-of-the-range Honda . Jazz, Renault Clio and Vauxhall Astra, for example — have to make do . with a sealant kit. If you’ve ever tried to use an emergency tyre inflation kit, you’ll know how awkward and messy they can be. Drivers have to connect a pipe from a compressor in the repair kit to . the flat tyre’s valve, plug the compressor into the cigarette lighter . and switch on the compressor to fill the tyre with air and sealant. Many car manufacturers are slowly phasing out the spare tyre . Then you have to unplug it all, drive the car for two miles to disperse . the sealant throughout the inside of the tyre to tackle the air leak, . stop and park, plug the compressor back into the tyre and cigarette . lighter, and pump up the tyre fully. Even then there’s no guarantee you can drive the car away. Sealant kits . only work with holes 4mm or smaller. Bigger gashes are impossible to . repair — a fact you will discover after an hour or so fiddling around on . the roadside. And even if you can get puncture kits to work, many garages refuse to . repair tyres if they have been filled with sealant, claiming it is too . time consuming and expensive to clean them out. A £15 puncture repair . can end up costing the £100 price of a replacement tyre. The demise of the spare is already . having an impact on emergency call-outs. Green Flag, the car breakdown . service, said the number of call-outs to drivers stranded by flat tyres . leapt 20 per cent last year. The . RAC had 80,000 calls in 2011 from motorists who found they hadn’t got a . spare in the boot, and who were unable to use the sealant kits. That . works out as around one fifth of all their tyre problem calls. Prakesh Patel, an RAC patrol officer, is not a fan. ‘I’ve . never been very successful with them,’ he says. ‘They are fine if it’s a . small hole caused by a nail. But the problem is that when you use the . sealant it ends up on the road and it’s messy. ‘It costs £20 to £30 to replace the sealant, and when you take the tyre to be repaired they won’t take it because of the glue inside. So you have to pay for a new tyre as well. ‘I had a call out this week from a middle-aged women who couldn’t find the spare but thought there must be one. 'When we opened up the boot the hole that should have been filled by a tyre was instead filled with a piece of polystyrene. She looked at me in disbelief.’ So why are car manufacturers cutting back on spares? One reason is the demand for ever larger boots. Families want people carriers with seven seats, plus room for buggies and luggage. Something has to give, and that something is the spare tyre. Removing the tyre which is usually stored under the boot’s carpet gives more space for boot seats to be folded away when not in use. But above all, getting rid of the spare saves the manufacturers money. It is cheaper to fit a £20 repair kit than an £80 spare tyre. There is also the issue of European and UK legislation designed to cut greenhouse gas emissions. The motor industry is under intense pressure to shave off excess weight from cars to improve fuel efficiency, and scrapping the spare removes up to 25kg of weight. While drivers fume, the car industry insists it is giving consumers more choice. John Visscher, of the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders, says: ‘Some people are comfortable with changing a tyre, but there are other motorists who want the ease, speed and the safety of not having to change a tyre on the side of the road. And there are drivers who don’t know how to change a tyre, or who don’t want to.’ The manufacturers argue that if a customer lavishes £15,000 on a new car they would be pretty daft not to double-check what they were getting for their money. The RAC had some 80,000 calls from motorists who discovered that their car didn't have a spare tyre in 2011 (file picture) The trouble is, how many motorists would ever imagine they’d be sold a new car without a spare tyre. Some manufacturers allow you to ‘upgrade’ by paying extra for a spare, but in many models there simply isn’t space. The RAC — which wants spare tyres to be included as standard — says dealerships need to spell out more clearly what customers are getting. RAC technical director David Bizley says: ‘Not including a spare wheel has become a growing trend among car manufacturers over the past five years, to the point where about 50 per cent of punctures registered in 2012 happened to vehicles which did not have a spare wheel.’ There is no sign that spares are about to come back into fashion either. It won’t be many years before they are available only as a pricey optional extra — along with sun roofs and a sat-nav. That means for the foreseeable future, the only spare tyres middle-aged men like me will have in our cars are the ones around our waists.
David Derbyshire says that many car manufacturers have began to phase out the spare tyre . Breakdown specialist the RAC were called by 80,000 motorists last year who discovered they didn't have a spare .

Gang members in Mexico have admitted to massacring 43 students who went missing in September after the local mayor demanded they be 'taught a lesson' so they didn't interrupt a speech by his wife. Attorney General Jesus Murillo said on Friday that three detainees revealed that they set fire to the group - some of whom were still alive - at a rubbish dump near Iguala in the state of Guerrero, close to where the students went missing. So far, 19 mass graves have been discovered around Iguala and more than 70 people have been arrested. Scroll down for video . The 43 students, pictured, went missing as they travelled to a protest in Iguala, Guerrero State  in September . Residents have held demonstrations calling for a full investigation into the fate of the 43 missing students . Jose Luis Abarca, who was previously mayor of Iguala, left, and his wife Maria de los Angeles Pineda right, were found and arrested in Mexico City on Monday and are believed to have masterminded the massacre . Investigators believe that the fires used to dispose of the bodies burned for 15 hours. After the flames died down, it is claimed that gang members waded through the ashes to recover any bone or teeth which may have survived the intense heat. The 46 students have not been seen since they disappeared near the southern city of Iguala on September 26 after being attacked by police. Attorney General Jesus Murillo Karam said: 'The high level of degradation caused by the fire in the remains make it very difficult to extract the DNA that will allow an identification.' The bone fragments are being sent to Austria to a specialist laboratory for DNA testing. Police allegedly handed the students over to the Guerreros Unidos cartel who are believed to have killed them and disposed of their bodies. Murillo Karam said there is no evidence the students were involved in organized crime. Some 74 people have been detained so far in the case. Authorities say it started when police, under orders of then Iguala Mayor Jose Luis Abarca, opened fire on students who were in Iguala collecting donations and had commandeered public buses. Jose Luis Abarca, left and his wife Maria de Los Angeles Pineda are believed to have links to the drug cartel . Investigators believe the bodies of the 43 missing students were burned at this rubbish dump . Six people were killed in two confrontations before the 43 students were taken away and allegedly handed over to Guerreros Unidos. Abarca and his wife, who were captured Tuesday after weeks of being on the run, are among those in custody. Jose Luis Abarca, who was previously mayor of Iguala, and his wife Maria de los Angeles Pineda were found and arrested in Mexico City on Monday. They are accused of organising the alleged massacre. Concerned that the group were about to disrupt a speech to be given by his politically ambitious wife, Abarca ordered police to 'teach them a lesson' according to Mexican media reports. Pineda demanded that police arrest they students when they threatened to ruin a party she was having, and once the police had the students they were then handed over to the gang members. Prior to this the police also opened fire on the group, killing several before the bodies were burned. Attorney General Jesus Murillo is seen leaving the prison after speaking with three gang members . Protesters walk with a sign featuring a photograph of the students . Pineda was able to make these demands as she is at the top of the criminal underworld tree in Iguala, and it was believed her speech may have been her announcement of her desire to succeed her husband as mayor. What's worse, the students had no intention of disrupting Pineda's speech, but were merely travelling through the town on buses they'd hired to take them to Mexico City for a remembrance service in honor of students massacred there in 1968. There has been and continues to be a massive outcry across Mexico to see that justice is served for this mass murder. Authorities searching for the students have found a large number of bodies, although Attorney General Jesus Murillo Karam said he would have to wait until the results of DNA tests have been returned before confirming their identities. He admitted that many of the bodies had been badly burned which will make the process of extracting DNA more difficult. He said: 'I have to identify, to do everything in my power, to identify, to know if these were the students.' Some parents of the missing students do not believe that their children are among the dead. Mario Cesar Gonzalez told CNN: 'We are not going to believe anything until the experts tell us: You know what? It is them.' Isrrael Galindo, claimed: 'The government is trying to resolve things its way so that to rid itself of this great problem it is facing. My son is alive. My son is alive. My son is alive.' The victims were mostly in their 20s studying to be teachers when they planned to travel to Iguala on September 26 for a demonstration. Protesters have been holding regular demonstrations demanding the safe return of the missing students . Locals have lost faith in the Mexican government and their ability to investigate incidents such as this . Some of the families are unwilling to accept that their relatives are dead until they receive conclusive proof . Amnesty International has criticised the Attorney General over his handling of the case. Erika Guevara Rosas, Americas Director of Amnesty International said: 'Tragically, the enforced disappearance of these student teachers is just the latest in a long line of horrors to have befallen Guerrero state, and the rest of the country. 'The warning signs of corruption and violence have been there for all to see for years, and those that negligently ignored them are themselves complicit in this tragedy.' Amnesty said the mayor of Iguala has long been suspected of criminality and links to drugs cartels. Ms Guevara Rosas said: 'If the allegations against Iguala’s mayor and the federal and local police had been investigated when other serious human rights violations occurred, it is more than likely that the terrible murders and enforced disappearances of the students would not have taken place.' Amnesty International has criticised Mexican authorities for their failure to clamp down on corruption .
Three Mexican gang members admit burning alive some of the students . Some of the fires lasted more than 15 hours according to eyewitness reports . Gang members waded into the ashes to remove remaining teeth and bone . Investigators have found 19 mass graves round Iguala, in Guerrero State . So far 70 people have been arrested including the former mayor and his wife . Mayor allegedly demanded that the police 'taught a lesson' to the students . It came after he was concerned they were to interrupt a speech by his wife .

By . Daniel Martin, Emily Allen and Hugo Gye . Last updated at 5:08 PM on 3rd December 2011 . Apology: Jeremy Clarkson at Heathrow on Thursday following the outcry over his comments . Jeremy Clarkson has caused another controversy after today criticising people who kill themselves on train lines. The notorious presenter said that anyone who committed suicide in this way was 'very selfish' for traumatising train drivers and inconveniencing commuters. His latest outburst comes as it is revealed that his joke about executing public sector workers for going on strike was pre-arranged with television producers. The BBC has so far received 21,335 complaints about Mr Clarkson's comments on Wednesday evening's edition of The One Show. And now he is set to trigger further outcry with his insensitive remarks about suicide victims - whom he calls 'Johnny Suicide' - in his newspaper column today. He wrote that killing oneself by jumping in front of a train 'is a very selfish way to go because the disruption it causes is immense.' Mr Clarkson claimed that train drivers involved in these cases are 'traumatised for life', and complained that passengers would 'have to sit around for hours'. And he added that trains should not wait until all the remains of the body had been removed from tracks, saying - grotesquely - that drivers should instead 'get the train moving as soon as possible and let foxy woxy and the birds nibble away at the smaller, gooey parts that are far away and hard to find.' However, in his article for The Sun Mr Clarkson stressed that he had 'the deepest sympathy for anyone whose life is so mangled and messed up that they believe death's icy embrace will be better.' Paul Farmer, chief executive of Mind, described the comments as 'extraordinarily tasteless', especially in the wake of the death of footballer Gary Speed. He told BBC Radio 5 Live: 'I think there will be many people who have lost loved ones to suicide and people who have contemplated suicide that will think it is in extremely bad taste. 'This is a man who really doesn't understand what he is talking about.' Marjorie Wallace, chief executive of the mental health charity Sane, said: 'We are absolutely appalled that Jeremy Clarkson should accuse people who throw themselves on railway lines of being selfish. 'Sadly he is not the first person to show this lack of understanding.' Strike storm: Jeremy Clarkson at Heathrow airport with fellow Top Gear presenter James May (rear) kissing a woman's hand . Earlier this week Mr Clarkson . triggered thousands of complaints after saying public sector strikers . should be ‘executed’ in front of their families. But now it has emerged producers thought it would be amusing if . the Top Gear host offered an extreme view of the strike that was not . meant to be taken seriously, The Times said. The . production team were aware of the contents prior to broadcast but Mr . Clarkson apparently took it one step further than they had expected when . he said strikers should be shot in front of their families. In . a day of extraordinary overreaction yesterday to what was clearly meant . as a joke, one union official threatened to report Mr Clarkson to . police, while another said his comments were worthy of Colonel Gaddafi. Even . the Prime Minister, a friend of Mr Clarkson, was dragged into the row, . describing the remarks as ‘silly’, while Ed Miliband said they were . ‘disgusting’. By Thursday . evening, when Mr Clarkson was finally forced to issue an apology, the . BBC had received almost 5,000 complaints about the interview. Yesterday morning that figure had risen to more than 20,000. In . an interview with The Sun, the 51-year-old likened the incident to . 'Sachs-gate,' the 2008 debacle in which Jonathan Ross and Russell Brand . left messages on actor Andrew Sachs' answering machine claiming Brand . had slept with his granddaughter. The prank sparked a public outcry resulting in Brand's resignation and Ross's suspension from the corporation. In all the BBC received 38,000 complaints about Sachs-gate, putting it only second to a broadcast of Jerry Springer: The Opera, which garnered more than 55,000 complaints. 'It's like the Jonathan Ross thing - it's a knee-jerk reaction,' Mr Clarkson told the paper. 'I was just making a joke about the . BBC's need to be impartial. If you listen to the whole interview, you'll . see there isn't a case to answer. 'Most people who are complaining haven't seen the full interview.' Controversial: Mr Clarkson said he wanted to see strikers shot when he appeared on the One Show this week . Awkward: Presenters Matt Baker and Alex Jones squirmed as Mr Clarkson made his comments on the live programme . The row erupted after millions saw the Top Gear host asked for his views on the day’s nationwide strikes. He started by saying he liked the strikers, because the industrial action had meant there was no traffic on the roads. But after insisting he had to be balanced as he worked for the impartial BBC, he launched into a satirical rant. Thousands of public sector workers joined pickets and marches across the country on Wednesday in a strike over pensions and cuts . He said: ‘Frankly, I would have them shot. I would have them taken outside and executed in front of their families.’ On Thursday the Prime Minister, whose . ‘Chipping Norton Set’ of friends includes Mr Clarkson, former News of . the World and Sun editor Rebekah Brooks and PR man Matthew Freud, was . forced to disassociate himself from the comments. Asked about them on ITV’s This Morning show, Mr Cameron said it was ‘a silly thing to say – I’m sure he didn’t mean it’. Labour leader Mr Miliband said the . remark was ‘absolutely disgraceful and disgusting’, adding: ‘He . obviously does not understand the lives of the people who were going out . on strike yesterday.’ Jeremy Clarkson's remarks about wanting to shoot strikers are the latest in a long line of controversial comments that are likely to add to his ever-increasing list of enemies. In February 2009, he famously called then prime minister Gordon Brown a 'one-eyed Scottish idiot' and in November the previous year, the BBC received almost 2,000 complaints when he joked about lorry drivers murdering prostitutes. More recently, in October, it emerged he had taken out an injunction to prevent allegations about his private life being published. Back in September 2005, he had a custard pie thrown in his face by green campaigners after picking up an honorary degree at Oxford Brookes University. Also that year, he offered some 'handy hints' to cyclists, saying: 'Do not cruise through red lights. Because if I'm coming the other way, I will run you down, for fun.' In November 2004, conservationists accused him of ruining virgin hillside during an off-road test of a Land Rover for the motoring programme. And in February 2004, the BBC paid £250 compensation to Churchill Parish Council in Somerset after Mr Clarkson drove a 4x4 Toyota pick-up truck into a 30-year-old horse chestnut tree to test the vehicle's strength. The unions exploded in fury, with . Unison calling on the BBC to sack the presenter and even contacting . lawyers to consider whether he could be reported to the police for . inciting violence. Dave Prentis, Unison’s general . secretary, said: ‘The One Show is broadcast at a time when children are . watching: they could have been scared and upset by his aggressive . statements. ‘While he is driving round in fast . cars for a living, public sector workers are busy holding our society . together: they save others’ lives on a daily basis, they care for the . sick, the vulnerable, the elderly. ‘They wipe bottoms, noses, they help . children to learn, and empty bins – they deserve all our thanks – . certainly not the unbelievable level of abuse he threw at them.’ The union’s health spokesman Karen Jennings went as far as describing the comments as ‘almost like Gaddafi’. Bob Crow, leader of the RMT union, . said Mr Clarkson was a ‘man who bleeds a fortune out of the . licence-payer for poncing around the world driving luxury cars’. ‘Clarkson’s incitement to violence, . and the refusal of David Cameron to roundly condemn it, is grossly . offensive to all public sector workers but even more so to our members . on the Royal Fleet Auxiliary who were on strike on Wednesday and who . risk their lives in trouble spots around the world servicing the Naval . fleet,’ he said. Bert Schouwenburg, of the GMB union, said: ‘Jeremy Clarkson’s vile and offensive comments are insensitive in the extreme. ‘GMB works with trade unions . representing employees on banana and pineapple plantations in Latin . America where activists have met exactly the fate that Mr Clarkson . describes.’ By 5pm on Thursday, the presenter had issued an apology. When Mr Clarkson was asked for his . reaction before flying out of the country, he said: ‘See what I actually . said and then judge. 'I didn’t for a moment intend these remarks to be . taken seriously – as I believe is clear if they’re seen in context. 'If . the BBC and I have caused any offence, I’m quite happy to apologise for . it alongside them.’ The BBC said: ‘The One Show is a live topical . programme which often reflects the day’s talking points. Usually we get . it right, but on this occasion we feel the item wasn’t perfectly judged. 'The BBC and Jeremy would like to apologise for any offence caused.’ Last night Tory MP Douglas Carswell called for a sense of perspective. ‘We shouldn’t rise to the bait on this,’ he said. ‘This is politicians causing mischief.’ Mr Clarkson’s comments have regularly landed him in hot water. Earlier this year, an item on Top Gear led to a complaint from the Mexican ambassador over ‘vulgar’ insults about Mexicans. Mr Clarkson also called the then prime minister . Gordon Brown a ‘one-eyed Scottish idiot’ and triggered 2,000 complaints . when he joked about lorry drivers murdering prostitutes.

New York's Cardinal Timothy Dolan says the Roman Catholic Church has been 'outmarketed' on the issue of gay marriage and has been 'caricatured as being anti-gay' Dolan discussed the church's positions opposing same-sex marriage and abortion in an interview with 'Meet the Press' moderator David Gregory that will air Sunday on NBC. Gregory noted that Illinois just became the latest U.S. state to legalize gay marriage and asked, 'Regardless of the church teachings, do you think this is evolving in such a way that it's ultimately going to be legal everywhere?' Cardinal Timothy Dolan will not give up on the gay marriage issue and cannot support the Affordable Health Care Act because it would cover the cost of an abortion . Illinois Gov.

'I think I'd be a Pollyanna to say that there doesn't seem to be kind of a stampede to do this,' Dolan said. 'I regret that.' Asked why the church is losing the argument on gay marriage, Dolan responded, 'Well, I think maybe we've been outmarketed sometimes. We've been caricatured as being anti-gay.' He said the church supports traditional marriage and is not 'anti-anybody,' adding, 'When you have forces like Hollywood, when you have forces like politicians, when you have forces like some opinion-molders that are behind it, it's a tough battle.' But, he said the church will not give up on the gay marriage issue. On another divisive issue, Dolan said the Catholic Church has long championed comprehensive health care, but he said U.S. Catholic bishops cannot support the Affordable Care Act as long as it includes coverage for abortion. He said the bishops started 'bristling' at the legislation pushed by President Barack Obama because 'it's excluding the undocumented immigrant and it's excluding the unborn baby.'

One man died trying to escape a burning ferry in the Adriatic Sea on Sunday afternoon, and hundreds more were awaiting rescue as night fell on the beleaguered vessel. Rescue crews worked into the night to airlift passengers by helicopter from the Italian-flagged Norman Atlantic, which caught on fire Sunday morning off the coast of Greece. In the early hours of Monday morning, the Italian Coast Guard confirmed that 201 people had been rescued. It's believed 276 are still on board the burning vessel. The fire has been contained, but smoke and weather conditions hindered extracting passengers in metal baskets from the ferry. They are being transported to merchant ships and an Italian Navy transport dock, from where they will eventually continue on to the Italian port of Brindisi or hospitals. Passengers suffering from smoke inhalation and hypothermia will be brought to hospitals in southern Italy, the Italian Coast Guard said. With rescue efforts under way, the focus of Italian and Greek media is shifting to the cause of the blaze, which is believed to have started in the ship's parking bay. At least one truck driver told the Greek news media that trucks filled with oil were "packed like sardines," cargo scraping the ceiling, which could have set off sparks in rough seas to start a fire, he surmised. Those remaining on board awaited rescue on the upper deck -- "dying of cold and suffocating from the smoke" even as their feet were "burning" from the fire's heat, said a Greek passenger who called Italy's state broadcaster RAI TV. The disaster made national headlines in Greece, Italy and other countries with citizens aboard the ferry. In a Sunday morning public address, Pope Francis offered "affection and prayers" to those affected by the Norman Atlantic ferry fire as well as a collision in the Adriatic Sea between two merchant ships. Thick clouds of smoke enveloped the vessel earlier Sunday as rescuers awaited an opportunity to approach. At least eight ships were deployed, but heavy winds and freezing waters kept them at bay, making evacuation by air the only feasible option. Turkish diplomatic personnel are heading to Igoumenitsa, the likely port for evacuated passengers, according to a Turkish Foreign Ministry statement. Turkish citizens were among the passengers, with Greeks and Italians making up the majority.
Number rescued climbs to 201; there are 276 still on board . At least one person is dead after jumping off Norman Atlantic ferry . The Norman Atlantic was carrying almost 500 people and more than 200 vehicles . Heavy winds and rough waters hindered rescue efforts .

Atletico Madrid are considering a move for Manchester United midfielder Shinji Kagawa. The Spanish champions are rebuilding their squad this summer and Kagawa, who is one of those players Louis van Gaal is prepared to discard at Old Trafford, has emerged as a target for Atletico manager Diego Simeone. Kagawa, 25, is viewed by Atletico as an alternative to Arsenal's Santi Cazorla. VIDEO Scroll down to watch Kagawa star in funny but strange advert with Gary Lineker . On the move? Atletico Madrid are considering a bid for Shinji Kagawa (centre) The Japanese international arrived at Old Trafford from Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2012 but he has struggled to nail down a place in the first-team and has only offered sporadic glimpses of his qualities. Van Gaal has already outlined his belief that the United squad is excessively stocked in Kagawa's preferred No. 10 position and it is understood that Juan Mata, Wayne Rooney and Adnan Januzaj all ahead of him in the pecking order. Kagawa has been frustrated by the failure of both Sir Alex Ferguson and David Moyes to hand him an extended run in his favoured role behind the forward and he has previously spoke of his reluctance to play from the wide positions. Moyes, for his part, argued that Kagawa has been effective playing from the left for  the Japanese national team. In and out: The Japanese international has struggled to nail down a place in the United first-team . Outgoing: Atleti coach Diego Simeone is hoping to strengthen his depleted Spanish side . Nonetheless, with Van Gaal's new 3-5-2 system, the only slot for Kagawa would be in the role that Juan Mata will primarily occupy, with Kagawa too slight to play in a wing-back role. German side Wolfsburg are also monitoring Kagawa and they have previously registered an interest in a player that could be available for around £13million. Borussia Dortmund are not currently prioritising a move to take Kagawa back to Germany but manager Jurgen Klopp remains an admirer and could be tempted into the race, particularly with the future of Marco Reus remaining unclear. Wanted: Diego Simeone is hoping to lure Santi Cazorla (right) away from the Emirates .

Moscow (CNN)A Russian politician behind a controversial anti-gay propaganda law has been caught up in a social media storm in which he is pictured in a photograph of two women kissing. Vitaly Milonov was on an Aeroflot flight from Moscow to St. Petersburg when he was photographed by two women who took a selfie of themselves kissing in front of him. Milonov was the driving force behind a law that bans "propaganda of non-traditional sexual relations among minors." As a lawmaker with the ruling United Russia party, he ensured the legislation was first passed in his home city of St. Petersburg before it was adopted across the country. In the past, he has called lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people "sick" and "crazy." Spotting him on their flight, the two lesbian activists kissed, took a selfie and uploaded it to Instagram. Ksenia Infinity, one of the women in the photo, posted on her Vkontakte page (Russia's version of Facebook) that "as fate would have it, he was sitting in the row behind us." She went on to say, "Milonov didn't say anything. We did a photoshoot with him in the background. When he noticed what we were doing he hid behind his tablet computer. We are very happy. He probably isn't. But who cares!" Ksenia told CNN that she was "delighted by the positive global reaction" to the photo after it went viral on Twitter and was "liked" by more than 1,000 people on Instagram. Milonov lashed out at the photographer, saying "I am tolerant towards all sexual minorities." He went on to say: "This shows that these people are not of a normal sexual orientation, but that their sexual deviance shows in all aspects of their lives. I didn't understand what they are doing but they have a nice sense of humor. I also have a good sense of humor. I will perhaps continue this joke by closing their gay club in St. Petersburg, or ban them from having meetings in public places, that's also a funny step." Milonov is currently working on legislation that would ban marriages in Russia between transgender couples. It comes after two people were able to get married in wedding dresses in St. Petersburg last year because one of them, according to passport information, is a man. At the time, Milonov told CNN that he was working to get the marriage annulled and that the people who allowed it to take place were "psychologically sick." He suggested that Irina Shumilova and Alyona Fursova should be committed to a "mental asylum" and that gay people who want to get married "should go to the United States."

Read Martin Samuel's match report from Sofia . Brendan Rodgers is confident Liverpool will make home advantage pay and reach the Champions League knockout stage. Liverpool had a frustrating Wednesday night in Sofia after they were held to a 2-2- draw by FC Ludogorets. But they are still in control of their destiny and will progress from Group B by beating Basle on December 9, even though they were pegged back by Georgi Terziev's late header. Brendan Rodgers gives Liverpool's Champions League verdict the thumbs up . Simon Mignolet's early blunder gifted Dani Abalo the opening goal inside three minutes . The game started in the worst possible manner for Rodgers, after Dani Abalo was gifted a third minute opener by Simon Mignolet's error. Liverpool, however, responded with goals from Rickie Lambert and Jordan Henderson. It now becomes a question of whether Liverpool can hold their nerve and see off Basle, who were beaten 1-0 by Real Madrid. Rodgers, though, has no concerns and insists he would have been happy to be in this position when the group stages started in September. Rodgers said: 'We are very frustrated but we needed to come and put on performance to encourage us going forward and one that gave us chance of qualifying from group and had both of them. Rickie Lambert hauled Liverpool level in Sofia as the Reds were forced to settle for a point in Sofia . Jordan Henderson celebrates after putting the visitors ahead before Ludogorets hit back late on . 'The reaction to going behind was fantastic and we showed real character. We fell behind to team that's done really well here. 'But we showed spirit with the quality of goals. Of course, we are frustrated at the end because we had defended so well. We could have been two or three in front but we have come away with a point. 'Real Madrid beat Basle and I said at start it could come down to the last game. To have the last game at Anfield, needing to win to go through, I would have taken that.' Rodgers refused to point the blame at Mignolet, who had been earlier been criticised by former Liverpool keeper Bruce Grobbelaar. Rodgers has refused to blame Mignolet, despite his mistake that gave Liverpool an uphill task . 'Hopefully it is not an issue with his confidence,' said Rodgers. 'It was a disappointment for the team because we wanted a solid start and to go behind so early very frustrating. Thankfully it didn't cost us overall. 'The pitch was difficult for the outfield players and the goalkeepers; it was very bobbly, especially around the box. Thankfully it didn't cost us overall and the players showed great character to come back. 'We haven't been consistent enough in our performances and that's my responsibility. But in the Champions League, we still have it in our hands. It was always going to be a close group, Basle have experience in the competition. Lambert justified his inclusion in the starting XI with his second goal in as many matches . 'But thankfully we have had a good result. We would have liked to have won but we can't ask for more than having to win your last game at home, which I felt would be the case at the start of the competition. I will take that.' Lambert vindicated Rodgers' decision to start him after his goal at Crystal Palace and the England international believes this performance was a riposte for the criticism that followed the debacle at Crystal Palace. 'It was my first start in the Champions League and it was good to score,' said Lambert. 'We are devastated about the goal at the end but it was about the performance today - win, lose or draw - and the performance was better. 'We have answered some of our critics about Sunday against Crystal Palace. It was about the win and we almost got it. Now we have to go for an even better performance on Saturday.'

Getting old and frail is not something to look forward to, but NHS staff are to find out first-hand exactly how tough it can really be. A suit has been created to mimic some of the troubles facing the elderly, using weights and straps to restrict movement while headphones and special goggles recreate the debilitating loss of vision and hearing. All staff at the Mid Yorkshire Hospitals NHS Trust, from porters to consultants, are to be given time in the ageing suit to give them a better insight into how their elderly and dementia patients feel when they try to perform basic tasks. Mid Yorkshire Hospitals NHS Trust is using an age simulation suit to teach staff what it's like to be old . It follows the example of . Peterborough City Hospital, whose staff were recently trained in how to . improve their care for obese patients by wearing a fat suit that gave . them the shape of a 40stone person. Anita . Ruckledge, a senior sister, said: ‘The ageing suit allows us to . empathise with patients who have age-related symptoms or who suffer from . dementia. It’s a way of understanding just what everyday life is like . for them. ‘It gives an . insight into how the joints move as we get older and how it might be . difficult to do things that we take for granted. It can make patients . feel very out of control.’ Those . wearing the suit found that splints fitted to their legs and oversized . shoes make them shuffle along, while vibrating gloves mimic the symptoms . of conditions such as Parkinson’s. Those wearing the suit will find after five or ten minutes that they start to slouch due to the weight of it, and pads on their elbows and knees restrict joint movement. The suit is being used by everyone from porters to consultants. Image shows volunteer Harvey Pedley wearing the suit and being supported by Anita Ruckledge, dementia lead nurse and senior sister . Splints are fitted to the legs and over-sized shoes are worn to make the user shuffle as an elderly person may do. The gloves cause a tremor to mimic the symptoms of conditions such as Parkinson's disease. Other age-related impairments that the suit helps younger people experience include opacity of the eye lens, narrowing of the visual field, head mobility restrictions and joint stiffness. They will also feel a loss of strength, reduced grip ability and reduced co-ordination skills, while also having high-frequency hearing loss. Suzanne Brassett, a ward sister on the dementia ward at Pinderfields Hospital in Wakefield, West Yorkshire, has worn the age simulation suit to allow her to get a better understanding of how her patients are feeling. The suit includes goggles and ear defenders to simulate hearing and vision loss and a neck brace to restrict head movement and replicate a stiff neck . The suit also includes heavy shoes which cause the wearer to shuffle as some elderly people do . Ms Brassett said: ‘The suit can actually make you understand how patients feel. ‘When patients say “I can't pick that up” or something you can completely empathise with them, and often by putting yourself in their shoes, you can help them to find a way. ‘It's not a nice feeling wearing the suit. I walked around a shopping centre in it and to not be able to see and not hear at the same time was really hard. You really do have to rely on everyone around you. ‘I would definitely recommend for anyone to try wearing it, because we all come across elderly people in our lives. For members of the public to try it as well would help all of us understand how it feels.’ The suit comes with gloves which cause the hands to shake and which make picking things up hard . Anita Ruckledge, senior sister at Mid Yorkshire Hospitals NHS Trust, said: 'The suit really allows us to empathise with patients who have age related symptoms or who suffer from dementia' The trust is supporting a nationwide drive to improve care of people with dementia across the country, and is investing in training by enabling all staff to take part in free dementia training courses. Deputy Associate Director of Nursing for Medicine, Helen Green said: ‘We want to make the trust a centre of excellence for dementia treatment. ‘This is part of our on-going drive to improve our care and make the most vulnerable patients get the attention and the support that they need. ‘We also want to reassure family and friends of patients that we are doing everything in our power to provide them with the support they need and deserve at what can be a difficult time.’

(CNN) -- Alongside his quest to add more Olympic medals to his collection of 16, swimmer Michael Phelps has taken some time outside of the water to dive into his first video game. The 14-time gold medalist has partnered with publisher 505 Games and developer Blitz Games to create the world's first swimming game for Xbox 360's Kinect system. "Michael Phelps: Push the Limit" is played without any controllers, allowing players to move their bodies to replicate swimming styles like backstroke, butterfly and breaststroke and virtually swim in competitions around the world. Phelps, who instructs players in the game on how to improve their swimming, also provided voice work and his motion-capture likeness for the game. He worked with the development team throughout the creative process. A life-long gamer, the Baltimore, Maryland, native is focused on training for the London 2012 Olympic Games. But he's also using technology, including the new video game, to help generate awareness for his sport outside of the global spotlight every four years. In this interview for CNN, Phelps talks about gaming, Twitter, and why he's addicted to the mobile game "Words with Friends." How often do you play video games? I probably play two or three days a week. It's mostly just sports games like "FIFA", "Tiger Woods", "Madden" and "NCAA Football." I've always loved the sporting games. Every now and then we'll play "Halo" online, but I just get destroyed every time and it's not really that fun. What was it like for you to get involved in your own video game? It was weird. I still look at the game cover and I'm like, "Wow." But it's kind of cool. Growing up a gamer and being able to work on the little things in this game like the different venues and those types of details has been a dream come true. The opportunities that I've had to take the sport to a new level and change it and do things that people haven't seen before has been fun. And now having a game on Xbox Kinect, it's not every day a swimmer has that. It's just exciting and hopefully everybody out there can enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed the creative process of building it and playing it and making it and being a part of everything. When it comes to the motion controls of the Kinect, what did that open up for swimming? Past (swimming) games have just been about hitting the A and B buttons quickly. Kinect allowed us to get gamers up and actually go through the motions to feel like you are swimming. It's cool for me because this game might help people not only get into the sport more, but to also get up and be active. That's something that's very important for not only kids, but everybody out there. How much of a workout can players get from this game? It actually is hard even for me. I did have a challenging time playing it, but once you get in the groove it's not too bad. It is fairly realistic though, and that's one of the things I really wanted to have in this game. It's going to be interesting to see how people like it. I've been getting people sending me messages on Twitter constantly about it. It is a way to get off the couch and get active instead of sitting there with the controller and just tapping buttons. It's much more interactive than regular games are. Can people learn about swimming from playing the game? Yeah, I'm sure. The better form you have, the faster you're going to go. It's extremely realistic. I found a lot of people were afraid to put their face under the water. So if they actually feel comfortable being able to just swim the strokes, maybe they'll feel comfortable when they get in the water. There are a lot of things that could happen and hopefully we can get more people in the pool and around the pool. What's your favorite piece of technology that you can't live without? I'm always on my phone. I'm always on Twitter. I'm constantly on my BlackBerry and iPhone. I think the apps and everything on iPhones are just unbelievable. Do you have a favorite app that you play around with? I have not been able to stop playing "Words with Friends." Ever since I got it, I've been playing it constantly. I can't even invite any more people to play because I'm at the max amount of games you can have. I have 30 games going at once. I'm literally on it non-stop. I took the train up yesterday and that's all I was doing. I had my headphones on and I was playing "Words with Friends." So it kills time. It's fun, and it's competitive. What are your thoughts about how far games have come on smartphones? It's unbelievable. You can do anything from your phone. I never thought that I would switch from BlackBerry to the iPhone, but gradually I'm taking myself away from the BlackBerry and going to the iPhone and it really is amazing. You can get anything from directions to restaurants to games. You name it. Like the commercial says, there's an app for that. How does technology allow you to connect with your fans, especially during the off Olympic years? That's been one of the cool things. I said I would never get on Twitter. And I stayed away from it until last December and (since then) I literally haven't put it down. It's a cool way to connect with people all over the world. There have been fans from China and Brazil and everywhere who are constantly tweeting at me or asking things. People ask me about the video game or about how I'm training. It's been fun to keep everybody in the loop of what's going on. What are you looking forward to with the next Olympics? I think the biggest thing is just trying to prepare myself the best way I can. Over the years I probably haven't been in the best shape, but I'm in better shape now than I was in '09 or '10 and this past summer. Hopefully in the next ten months I can get in even better shape and just try and accomplish the goals that I have. I have a lot of goals that I want to accomplish in and out of the water before I retire. If I'm able to do that, then I can look back on my career and say it's been a success. Can you share any of the goals? My coach and I are the only two that know. Throughout my career I've always sort of kept them between him and I, and we're the only two that are really going to be able to help each other get to the goals that we have. We work well together. We're more relaxed now than we ever have been and we're having fun, so who knows what can happen? The sky is the limit. We have a lot to do and the Olympics will be here before we know it.

Beijing (CNN) -- After focusing on "green cars" in recent years, carmakers are wowing visitors at the Auto China 2012 car show with vehicles that are big, bad and gas-guzzling. "I would definitely be interested if the price was right," says Wang Xizhen as he ogled a deep purple Aston Martin DBS. Aston Martin launched its Dragon 88 China-only limited edition this week. With gold dragon emblems embroidered onto its leather seats, the car also carries a hefty price tag - more than 5 million yuan (nearly $800,000). Jeep also launched a China-inspired car -- a flashy Wrangler concept car emblazoned with a long silvery dragon across the hood. "Jeep brand sales in China in 2011 increased 81% over the prior year and China," said Mike Manley, CEO of Jeep Brand, Chrysler group, at the unveiling on Monday. "Last year, more Jeep vehicles were sold in China than in any other country besides the U.S. and Canada." Manley said because the brand is committed to China, it's important to design and tailor vehicles specifically to Chinese tastes. But some consumers, like Wang, disagreed. "Just because it has a dragon on it, doesn't mean Chinese people will love it. After all, we're after going after a western brand," said Wang. "I like the subtlety of Aston Martin's dragon design, but to put a huge dragon across the entire car is going overboard." Jeep and Aston Martin are among many foreign automakers hoping to woo hundreds of thousands of Chinese consumers visiting the show this week, especially as China has become the world's largest auto market amid a sales slump in Europe and tepid growth in the United States. Despite the push in green cars in previous years following government subsidies for cleaner vehicles, this year's focus turned to gas-guzzling SUVs. Crowds swooned over the new Lamborghini Urus SUV concept car -- a potential competitor to the popular Porsche Cayenne. Ford also unveiled three SUVs at the show, including the EcoSport, which is expected to be manufactured at the company's China factory in Chongqing. "SUVs are a strength for Ford globally and here in China, the SUV segment is one of the fastest growing segments in the industry," said Joe Hinrichs, president of Ford's Asia Pacific and Africa region. "So you put the two together...it's a very exciting time." Automakers have turned their attention to bigger cars and flashier cars to attract consumers since there are fewer government-backed incentives to pursue green technology, analysts say. "It costs automakers about the same to manufacture a hybrid versus an SUV—so it's not profitable for them to pursue green cars given the market development for SUVs right now," said Zhang Xin, an analyst at Guotai Jun'an Securities, based in Beijing. "If you take into account China's widening wealth-poverty gap—it's a huge factor in luxury automakers in business." Chinese auto sales -- which surged to 35% in 2010 -- showed signs of cooling in the first quarter of this year with just 2% growth. For high-end automakers like Rolls Royce, their bet on the China—their largest market—remains optimistic. "It is really hard to predict growth rates, because when you look back nobody could have predicted the growth rates we've seen over the last couple of years," said Torsten Müller-Ötvös, CEO of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, Ltd. "Since last year, we've seen growth rates of 50 to 60%, something I would definitely would not expect this year, but there's definitely sustainable growth to come." But analysts like Zhang say with the demand, also comes pollution and infrastructure challenges. "Experts here still say that China falls behind on the number of drivers it could have—whereas there are on average 140 drivers for 1,000 people in the world, China only has about 50 for every 1,000," said Zhang. "But they don't take into consideration population density and infrastructure challenges." But for drivers like Zhang, who says he can only afford a local brand now but may upgrade to an Audi SUV in the near future, owning car is about convenience and comfort. "I don't know many drivers who would be concerned about creating more pollution," said Zhang, a 26-year-old law student. "We just want travel in comfort and get to our destination on time."

Havana, Cuba (CNN) -- A columnist in Cuba's main government-run newspaper Friday accused employees of the United States diplomatic mission in Havana of accepting bribes for visas, charges that American diplomats challenged. The columnist, Nestor Garcia Iturbide, wrote in the state-run Granma that U.S. consular officials were in the "business of denying visas" to promote dangerous and illegal travel as well as a side business selling visas. According to Garcia Iturbide, "to receive the visas some people pay off officials" during secret meetings arranged outside the U.S. Interest Section in Havana, but he offered no details of the alleged payments. U.S. officials countered they have sped up the application process and don't promote illegal travel. "The United States supports safe, legal, and orderly migration, and encourages intending immigrants to consider the legal options that may be available to them instead of risking a dangerous and illegal trip via raft or other route," U.S. diplomats said in statement issued Friday. The statement said that U.S. officials take allegations of corruption seriously and urged anyone with information about alleged visa payoffs to report it to U.S. authorities in Havana. Under migration accords with Cuba, the United States gives at least 20,000 Cubans a year visas to immigrate to the U.S. legally. But the U.S.'s so-called "wet foot, dry foot" policy means Cubans who reach U.S. soil are not sent back to Cuba, which Cuban authorities say leads to an increase in illegal journeys. Thousands of Cubans also apply for tourist visas to the United States but have to prove that they have long-standing ties on the island that would prevent them from remaining in the United States. In February, Cuba removed a long-standing requirement that forced Cubans to have an exit visa before they could travel abroad.

Muhammad Ali is loved across the world, but his three visits to London cemented a special bond with the British public. Over the space of three years, Ali won each of his fights against the best Britain had to offer, starting with his first clash with Henry Cooper in 1963.

Having won the world heavyweight title against Sonny Liston, he made a third successful defence in his rematch with Cooper at Highbury, then home to Arsenal. In August, he fought at Earls Court Arena, knocking out Brian London in the third round.

Almost three-quarters of people do not think women should receive IVF to help them conceive beyond their natural childbearing years, a poll has found. A quarter believe women should stop trying to bring babies into the world past the age of 40 while 43 should be the cut-off for men. The survey of more than 2,000 people across the UK found 31 per cent think the current age limit of 42 for IVF on the NHS is too old. Almost three-quarters of people do not think women should receive IVF to help them conceive beyond their natural childbearing years, a poll has found. The poll was released to mark the TLC documentary Tina Malone: Pregnant At 50 . Some 26 per cent said they thought 40 should be the maximum age limit for either NHS or private treatment. Meanwhile, almost three-quarters (72 per cent) said science not should intervene to help women become pregnant beyond their natural childbearing years. The poll was released to mark the TLC documentary Tina Malone: Pregnant At 50, which will air on Tuesday. The Shameless actress travelled to Cyprus for IVF treatment and conceived her daughter, Flame, with donor eggs, giving birth aged 50. Two-thirds of those surveyed said they thought children born to women aged 50 to 55 were negatively affected by having an older mother. This figure rose to 73 per cent of over-50s surveyed. Some 52 per cent said women who are 50 cannot be a good parent for a child through to adulthood.When asked about men aged 50 and over having children, 43 per cent said the same. The Shameless actress travelled to Cyprus for IVF treatment and conceived her daughter, Flame, with donor eggs, giving birth aged 50 . Malone, now aged 51, had her first child aged 17. She said: 'People might consider me over the hill and too old to be a mum but physically, emotionally, mentally and financially I am much better off now, as a mum at 50, than I was as a mum at 17 when nobody criticised me for having a baby. 'I have more stamina and energy than most 27-year-olds, and all the time to give to my baby. Of course there has to be a cut-off, but if you are fit and healthy and financially secure, then you should be allowed to have a child at 50.' Today's survey also revealed people's main concerns when it comes to older mothers. Some 72 per cent said the main worry for mothers over 40 was their health during pregnancy and birth, while 68 per cent said the impact on young children when their parent dies is also a concern. Meanwhile, 62 per cent said the health of the child owing to having an older mother was an issue. When asked what was the ideal age for women to have their first baby, 27 was the most popular age.Susanna Dinnage, managing director of Discovery Networks UK, said: 'The findings reveal that most people believe 40 should be the cut-off for parenthood. 'However, juxtaposed against this public view, Tina gives a very moving and compelling account of one woman's personal decision to have a child at 50, three decades after she had her first child.'

A wrought-iron gate bearing the Nazis' infamous 'Work sets you free' slogan has been stolen from the former Dachau concentration camp in Germany. Security guards at the site, near Munich, discovered the gate bearing the words 'Arbeit macht frei' was missing yesterday morning. The slogan was meant to convey to the prisoners who passed under it that they could attain spiritual freedom through hard work for the Fatherland. However, for many it marked their entrance to a living hell. Scroll down for video . Stolen: This wrought-iron gate bearing the Nazis' infamous 'Work sets you free' slogan has been stolen from the former Dachau concentration camp in Germany . The gate, which measures 75 by 37 inches, was set into a larger iron structure, and police said the thieves would have had to climb over another gate in order to reach it. Police said they found nothing in the immediate vicinity of the camp and appealed for anyone who noticed any suspicious people or vehicles to come forward. Dachau, near Munich, was the first concentration camp set up by the Nazis in 1933. More than 200,000 people from across Europe were held at the camp and more than 40,000 prisoners died there before it was liberated by U.S. forces on April 29, 1945. Forced labour: Dachau inmates manufacturing weapons at the camp, which was opened in 1933 . Freedom: French prisoners sing their national anthem as U.S. troops liberate the camp in April 1945 . The camp is now open to the public as a memorial. Memorial director Gabriele Hammermann has condemned the theft of the gate, which she described as 'the central symbol for the prisoners' ordeal,' according to German news agency dpa. She said a private security service supervises the site but officials had decided against surveillance of the former camp with video cameras because they didn't want to turn it into a 'maximum-security unit.' Ms Hammermann said that decision may now have to be reviewed. Similarity: In December 2009, the infamous 'Arbeit macht frei' sign that spanned the main gate of the Auschwitz death camp, built by the Nazis in occupied Poland, was stolen . A blog posting by Israel's Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial wrote that 'while we do not know who is behind the theft of the sign, the theft of such a symbolic object is an offensive attack on the memory of the Holocaust.' In December 2009, the infamous 'Arbeit macht frei' sign that spanned the main gate of the Auschwitz death camp, built by the Nazis in occupied Poland, was stolen. Police found it three days later cut into pieces in a forest on the other side of Poland. Anders Högström, a Swedish former neo-Nazi leader, was found guilty of instigating that theft and jailed in his homeland. Five Poles also were convicted of involvement and imprisoned. The sign was replaced with a replica and the original is now behind glass in a museum. Located on the grounds of a former munitions factory close to the medieval town of the same name, Dachau concentration camp was established in March 1933, just a few weeks after Adolf Hilter was appointed Reich Chancellor. The camp was intended to house political prisoners, and served as a model for all concentration camps that would follow, as well as a 'school for violence' for the SS commanders who ran it. As the Nazi reign continued, the purpose of the camp was extended to include forced labour, and began to take in Jews, ordinary criminals and foreign prisoners from countries Germany invaded. Prisoners were under the constant threat of punishment including beatings as well as forced labour. Scientific experiments also took place at the camp, including testing of new medications, attempts to make seawater drinkable, and methods to stop excessive bleeding. Hundreds of inmates died or were left disabled by these experiments. In 1942 a new crematorium was built at the site which included a gas chamber, although there is no evidence this was used to murder prisoners. Instead those who were judged too sick or weak to work were sent to the Hartheim euthanasia centre. In a final act of cruelty, guards at the camp forced more than 7,000 prisoners, most of them Jewish, on a death march as American troops drew close in April 1945. Many of the starved and weak prisoners who struggled to keep up were shot dead. By the time it was liberated by U.S. forces on April 29, 1945, more than 200,000 people had been held in Dachau and its subsidiary camps, 41,500 of whom died there. After the war, SS soldiers awaiting trial were held at Dachau, and it was also used as a U.S. military base during the occupation of Germany. Dachau is now open to the public as a memorial.

By . Jenny Hope Medical Correspondent . Travellers to exotic places should use repellents containing DEET to protect against insect bites - as the benefits outweigh the risks, say experts. British experts are backing the insecticide despite safety concerns. They say more harm occurs when people use too little DEET and put themselves at greater risk of potentially harmful diseases such as malaria and dengue fever. Experts believe that travellers to exotic locations should use insect repellent containing DEET as the benefits outweigh any potential side effects (picture posed by model) Latest figures suggest the number of visits by Britons to tropical countries went up by two million between 2002 and 2012 – from 4.02m to 6.03m. Previous research has questioned the safety of DEET, which contains N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide and was developed by the US army for jungle warfare just after World War II. It is the active ingredient in many commercial topical repellents sold today. However, some governments limit its concentration after reports of a type of brain disease called encephalopathy following DEET use. Dr James Logan, senior lecturer in medical entomology at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, recommends using repellents containing 20-50 per cent DEET in tropical countries. He said ‘If DEET products are restricted to just 15 per cent, it is likely that millions of people will be put at greater risk of mosquito bites which will dramatically increase their likelihood of developing a disease like malaria or dengue as a result. ‘There is plenty of evidence to show that low levels of DEET are not very effective, so it is important that travellers have access to repellents with greater levels of DEET that will provide the best protection.’ Dr James Logan said people should use repellents containing between 20-50 per cent DEET to counter the threat of mosquito bites . A new review of existing studies headed by Dr Logan concludes there is insufficient evidence to show that DEET is unsafe for human use. The review, published in the open access journal Parasites and Vectors (must credit), found the benefits of avoiding disease-spreading insect bites outweigh any risks associated with applying DEET to the skin. It discovered only one existing human trial on the safety of DEET, in pregnant women in Thailand. This study compared women who used a DEET-based repellent to prevent malaria transmission to a control group. There was evidence of traces of DEET in the children, suggesting that the substance could cross the placental barrier, but, crucially, no differences in the health of the babies between the DEET treatment group and the control group babies. The review also looked at existing animal studies to assess the safest amount of DEET to use in repellents and found that insufficient evidence had been gained from these to justify any imposed limits on concentration of DEET. Based on this, the authors weigh the safety risks found in trials against the protection that DEET-based repellents give against transmission of diseases. Dr Logan said the best protection against insect-borne illness was to avoid getting bitten, but repellent played an important part in reducing the burden of illness. He said ‘Our review article found very few studies that suggested any adverse effect of DEET. ‘In fact, there were only 14 cases of encephalopathy associated with DEET since 1957 which is extremely small considering the estimated 200 million applications of DEET to the skin each year. ‘If DEET caused serious health problems, we would know about it by now.’ A spokeswoman for the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine said dengue fever -  a viral infection that is transmitted to humans by Aedes mosquitoes - is present in Brazil where football fans from around the world are due to converge for the world cup. It can cause life-threatening illness and there is there is no cure and no vaccine against it. The main protection against dengue fever is insect repellents, she said. ‘Biting arthropods can transmit a whole range of diseases to humans and it is vital to protect ourselves’ added Dr Logan. ‘Vaccines and treatments are available for some diseases, but not all, and so the best way to keep as safe as possible is to use an insect repellent containing DEET and reapply it regularly. ‘We want people to enjoy their holidays and tropical trips - we don’t want them ruined by illness so we want to do all we can to help inform and educate people about the facts rather than the many myths surrounding this issue’ he said.
Travellers to exotic locations should use spray containing at least 20 per cent DEET . Experts warn that 15 per cent DEET puts millions of people at mosquito risk . The best defence is to avoid getting bitten but repellents can be effective .

By . David Mccormack . and Associated Press Reporter . Three Albuquerque teenagers accused of fatally beating two homeless men beyond recognition have been ordered held on $5 million bonds. Police say they are also investigating claims by one of the teens that the trio had been terrorizing transients around Albuquerque, New Mexico, for months. Prosecutors requested $1 million bond for each of the three during initial appearances on Monday, but Metropolitan Court Judge Linda Rogers set bond at $5 million. She cited the gravity of the alleged crimes and the suspects' potential to flee. Scroll down for video . Alex Rios,18, makes an appearance on video for an arraignment in court on Monday for participating in the beating of two homeless men in Albuquerque, New Mexico over the weekend . Police expect that brothers Nathaniel Carrillo, 16, and Gilbert Tafoya, 15, will be charged with murder as adults  after confessing to the brutal slayings . Alex Rios, 18, Nathaniel Carrillo, 16 and Gilbert Tafoya, 15, have been charged with open counts of murder and are being held in Bernalillo County detention facilities. Rios has been charged with two counts each of murder, conspiracy to commit first-degree felony and contributing to the delinquency of a minor. He also faces three counts of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and one count each of tampering with evidence and robbery. Carrillo and Tafoya will likely be charged with murder as adults, Drobik said. ‘I personally, after reading that complaint, was sick to my stomach because of the nature of the violence and the age of the offenders,’ Drobik said. Bedding, clothing and broken glass litter the homeless encampment in Albuquerque where the three teenagers are accused of fatally beating two homeless men to death . Alex Rios, 18, has been charged with two counts each of murder, conspiracy to commit first-degree felony and contributing to the delinquency of a minor . Officers responded Saturday around 8 a.m. to a 911 call reporting two bodies in a field. They found one victim lying on a mattress and another lying on the ground. Jerome Eskeets, a third victim who said he was able to flee, was hospitalized for his injuries. Eskeets told police that he recognized one of the ‘kids’ hitting and kicking him as someone who lived in a house nearby. Police went to the home and found the three suspects, according to the complaint. The homeowner identified Tafoya and Carrillo as his sons and Rios as a friend who had spent the night. Investigators say in the complaint that blood on the waist band of Tafoya’s shorts triggered further investigating and interviews with all three. Rios told investigators he acted as a . lookout while the other boys attacked both men with bricks, sticks and a . metal fence pole. He said the victims were struck all over, including . in the face and chest. The . younger suspects, however, told police that Rios also took part in the . attacks. Both boys said they wanted to look for someone to beat up and . possibly rob. Both describe how all three covered their faces with black T-shirts before walking over to the victims, who were lying down. Then the trio allegedly used various objects to attack the men, including cinder blocks. According to Tafoya, they all took turns picking up cinder blocks over their heads and smashing them into the men's faces more than 10 times. The suspects said after the attack, they took one victim's driver's license and debit card. The license was found in the teens' home, police said. Crime scene: Albuquerque police work at the scene where three teenagers allegedly killing the two sleeping men in an open field in an attack so violent it left the victims unrecognizable, said police . According to Tafoya, all three have previously attacked homeless people around Albuquerque. The teens claim to have assaulted as many as 50 vagrants, reports NBC News. Police are now going to look into open cases involving attacks on transients to see if they are related, Drobik said. Meanwhile, investigators have not yet officially confirmed the identities of the two victims. Their transient background and the severity of their injuries have made identifying them somewhat difficult, Drobik said. The department is asking anyone in the homeless community with information to get in touch with them. Drobik said any transients uncomfortable approaching police can also contact them through any social service agency. ‘Just please come forward,’ Drobik said. Family and attorneys for the three declined comment after the court proceeding.

A Royal bodyguard is suing Scotland Yard, claiming he is being forced to work too many hours. The officer triggered a probe into the Metropolitan Police by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) after complaining his shifts were longer than EU rules allow. Now he has launched an unprecedented case against the Met about his hours and overtime pay. A Royal bodyguard is suing Scotland Yard, claiming he is being forced to work too many hours . Sources said that the officer, still working for the Met, is likely to win a substantial out-of-court settlement in order to prevent the sensitive work of the Royal protection squad, SO14, being discussed in open court. Last night Britain’s biggest force admitted it had not been good enough at checking officers’ hours. A Met spokesman told The Mail on Sunday: ‘The Metropolitan Police Service acknowledges that the monitoring of officers’ hours was not as robust as it could have been. 'Processes have been improved and the Health and Safety Executive will review our practices in due course.’ The Met’s Protection Command provides security for the Royals, Ministers and visiting dignitaries. SO14 guards the Queen and Royals including the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge at home and abroad. Because the elite officers guarding them are required to travel so much, they cannot work normal shifts and receive a hefty overtime allowance. In 2010, The Mail on Sunday revealed further perks of working with the Royals, with one male officer accompanying Princes William and Harry (pictured) to the World Cup in South Africa . Official figures show a constable in SO14 earns on average £43,345 a year and £11,202 in overtime allowances. The highest-paid constable guarding Royalty received £82,959 a year. In 2010, The Mail on Sunday revealed further perks of working with the Royals, with one male officer accompanying Princes William and Harry to the World Cup in South Africa claiming £300 for ‘warm-weather clothing’ including three items of women’s clothing. Under the Met’s regulations, officers are meant to work an average of 48 hours a week over six months. But they can opt out of the restriction, and the rules acknowledge that the duties of a Close Protection Officer may exempt them from any time limit. Thousands of British troops and their families are in danger of being attacked in their homes by terrorists following huge cutbacks to the Ministry of Defence Police (MDP), it was claimed last night. The MDP used to keep a watchful eye on 60 married quarters, but after 1,800 posts were axed by the Ministry of Defence in 2012, security patrols ceased at 44 of those. Eamon Keating, chairman of the Defence Police Federation, the staff association for the MDP, told The Mail on Sunday: ‘I am incredibly concerned about how easy it would be for someone to attack a soldier’s home. ‘Married quarters have been put last in the list of security priorities, even though personnel and their families are the foundation of our Armed Forces.’ Police documents seen by this newspaper state: ‘On the 8th April 2014 the HSE visited the MPS to investigate a complaint made by an SO14 officer pertaining to an allegation that SO14 had failed to comply with the Working Time Regulation.’ Ken Wharfe, the late Princess Diana’s protection officer, said: ‘This isn’t an eight-hour tour of duty. You cannot compromise security.’ As the case will be settled out of court it will not set a legal precedent, but may open the door for others to launch similar claims.

Editor's note: Thomas Levenson is a professor at MIT, where he heads the Graduate Program in Science Writing. He is the author of a new book, "Newton and the Counterfeiter" and an award-winning filmmaker, with 10 documentaries on science broadcast on PBS. Thomas Levenson says Isaac Newton's bad gamble shows financial regulation has always been needed. (CNN) -- From winter to spring 1720, London, England, was delirious, entranced, rolling in money. It seemed as if riches were so easily gained that only fools would not buy into that brand new engine of wealth, the stock exchange, and especially into shares of the enterprise leading the boom, a banking concern called the South Sea Company. As spring turned into summer, no one, it seemed, could deny the obvious, not even the most rational of men. So, in June and again in July, Sir Isaac Newton -- the inventor of calculus (the branch of mathematics that describes change over time, which is to say, an awful lot of what matters in both science and life); the man who framed the laws of motion and set physics on its modern trajectory; a pioneering chemist, an inventor (virtually all present-day telescopes derive from his design), a religious historian -- and even a financial thinker -- put a sizable chunk of his personal fortune into shares of the South Sea Company. The bubble burst that September. Newton lost 90 percent of his stake -- a substantial fraction of his total worth. In that loss can be found the key to the debate we are having right now in the wake of the Obama administration's move to re-regulate American financial markets. Arguments over the supervision of financial transactions occur in the wake of every bubble. Opponents of such regulation always return to the same simple claim. They say that investors are grown-ups, capable of making the best assessments of their own interests and acting accordingly. Markets are thus no more than self-correcting mechanisms for connecting such rational actors, and any attempt to impose rules on their interaction will only render them less efficient. Those in favor say that all this is nonsense, that in the real world, markets are not populated by equally well-informed people analyzing their own circumstances and acting accordingly -- and that every financial collapse thus takes down both those who should have known better and those who couldn't have hoped to. Hence, they say, an active enforcer needs to provide a level playing field and to deter actual fraud. Painfully recent experience suggests that's true enough -- but Newton's case suggests a deeper necessity at the heart of the case for proactive regulation. What happened to him, or rather, how he acted, reveals a fundamental truth of economic and emotional life: At the point of crisis, when clear thought and a cool head matter most, no one is in fact a rational actor -- not even the greatest scientific mind of his or any other age. So what brought Newton low? Desire, perhaps envy, or, in other words, human nature. Newton had been an active trader in the new stock market for years before the bubble year of 1720. He made his first investment in the South Sea issue early, in 1713, and held it for several years, marking a modest paper profit. He held on through early 1720, as the company pursued a new and increasingly risky banking deal -- and as insiders began to talk up the (as it turned out, fictitious) trading profits the company expected from another venture. That got the desired result, a sudden leap in stock prices. Starting at £128 in January, the price for South Sea securities rose to £175 in February and then £330 in March. Newton kept his head -- at first. He sold in April, content with his (quite spectacular) gains to date. But then, between April and June, share prices tripled, reaching over £1,000 ... which is precisely when he could stand it no longer. Having "lost" two thirds of his potential gain, Newton bought again at the very top, and bought more after a slight decline in July. If that sounds familiar, it should, at least to buyers of Webvan in 2000, just before the Internet bubble burst -- or, for that matter, to those who picked up Lehman Brothers shares in winter 2008. The South Sea stock price held up through August 1720, and then in September, the gap between the possible income from all the purchased debt and the returns promised to investors became too obvious to ignore. The bubble burst, and South Sea share prices collapsed to roughly their pre-bubble level. Newton's losses totaled as much as £20,000, between $4 million and $5 million in 21st century terms. The catastrophe did not sink him; he had made other, more cautious investments, including a significant stake in the East India Company, and when he died in 1727, his estate was valued at £30,000 pounds. But it was a terrific blow, even so. Here's why this story matters now. Of all people, Newton should have known better. He had, after all, invented the mathematics that could expose the impossibility of the South Sea Company's promise of returns to be paid to an everlasting stream of new investors. And yet, even he could not resist the prospect of infinite returns on his money. Hence, the obligation to regulate. There is plenty of recent academic research that confirms that bubbles -- including the ones we've just endured -- are not unique disasters, but the predictable consequences of human behavior in the context of implausible rewards. What Newton's experience tells us is that this has been true since the beginning of modern markets -- and that mere intelligence, even genius, doesn't help. Isaac Newton said so himself. After the disaster, he could not bear to hear the phrase "South Sea" mentioned in his presence. But just once he admitted that while he knew how to predict the motions of the cosmos, "he could not calculate the madness of the people." We still can't. The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Thomas Levenson.
Thomas Levenson: Isaac Newton was a mathematical, scientific genius . He says Newton got swept up in the South Sea financial mania . He says he lost a big part of his fortune when the South Sea bubble burst . Levenson: Financial regulation crucial to protect investors .

By . Martin Robinson . PUBLISHED: . 05:42 EST, 23 January 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 11:23 EST, 23 January 2013 . Changes: A young boy enjoys a carton of Ribena, which is one of several drinks to have sugar reduced to protect teeth and curb obesity . Soft drinks like Lucozade, Ribena and Irn-Bru are to have their sugar content slashed by up ten per cent in an admission they should not have been so sweet in the first place. The reduction has been agreed by makers to protect the teeth of children and quell the 'rising tide of obesity' in Britain, the Government has said. At the moment a 500ml bottle of Ribena contains as much as 13 teaspoons of sugar while a can of Irn-Bru has more than half a dozen. But Coca Coca Cola told MailOnline today they will not . reduce the seven teaspoons in a 330ml can of their signature drink. They say they have lots of low calorie alternatives and have cut levels in its . Fanta, Lilt and Oasis brands. Campaigners are still unimpressed, as despite sugar levels being reduced, most of these soft drinks drinks will still get a Foot Standards Agency red light, because they contain more than 6.3g of sugar per 100ml of liquid. Charlie Powell of the Children's Food Campaign pressure group said: 'So they are swapping one red light for another: not exactly impressive.' It came as the public health minister Anna Soubry said that you can spot poor Britons because they are usually overweight. A culture of unhealthy TV dinners and junk food has eroded family life and that many homes no longer even have a dining table, the Tory MP added. Today GlaxoSmithKilne says the sugar in the Ribena ready-to-drink line and Lucozade Energy will be cut by 'up to 10 per cent', while AG Barr will reduce the calorie content across its drinks range, which includes Irn-Bru, by five per cent. The J20 brand has also announced it is to launch two flavours in a new . slimline can which will represent a 10 per cent calorie reduction compared with . its standard 275ml bottle, while Co-operative Food will look at . controlling calories in popular product lines and Burton's Biscuits will . offer more portion control packs and review its recipes. Anna Soubry welcomed the pledges as England has some of the highest obesity rates in the developed world, with 60 per cent of adults and one third of 10 and 11-year-olds being overweight or obese. The Government has launched its Responsibility Deal calorie reduction pledge to encourage businesses and other organisations to help consumers consume less sugar. 'Being overweight and not eating well is bad for our health. To reverse the rising tide of obesity we have challenged the nation to reduce our calorie intake by five billion calories a day. On average that's just 100 calories less a day per person,' Ms Soubry said. Reduction: Lucozade energy will have sugar cut by 10% and Irn-Bru by 5% in changes that raise serious questions about why they were so sweet in the first place . No change: But Coca Cola's signature drink will not have its sugar levels reduced, as thegiant says it has cut it in others and has many low-calorie alternatives . 'Today's announcement will cut the calories and sugar by up to 10% in leading brands like Lucozade and Ribena. Through the Responsibility Deal we are already achieving real progress in helping people reduce the calories and salt in their diet. Overall, more than 480 companies including many leading high street brands have signed up to the Responsibility Deal. Pleased: Public health minister Anna Soubry says that the decision to slash sugar will benefit Britain . 'All of the major supermarkets have now committed to removing artificial trans fats, and over 70% of fast food and takeaway meals sold on the high street have calories clearly labelled, but more needs to be done. 'We are encouraged by the extra businesses which have signed up today but I want to see even more progress. All in the food industry have a part to play and I now expect companies which are not yet taking action to come forward and make pledges.' Last year Coca Cola signed up to the Government’s calorie reduction pledge to cut calories from sparkling soft drinks. 'We recognise obesity is a serious public health issue, which is why we help people make informed choices about our products and encourage them to lead active lifestyles. We will continue to work in in partnership with others to help address the challenge of obesity,' a Coca Cola spokesman said. Responsibility Deal Food Network chairwoman Dr Susan Jebb said: "I'm pleased to see the soft drinks manufacturers like GSK, AG Barr and Britvic join Coca-Cola and PepsiCo to make some very real commitments to help consumers cut down on their calories as they take control of their weight. 'I hope we will now see others, including the out of home sector, taking a careful look at how they can build on this and come to the table with new commitments to encourage their customers choose smaller portions and swap to lower calorie options.' Food and Drink Federation director general Melanie Leech said: "We commend these businesses for joining existing pledge signatories in a shared commitment to support the calorie reduction challenge issued to the nation by ministers last year. Of the 31 pledge signatories, 15 are manufacturers, demonstrating our sector's willingness to engage and deliver improved public health outcomes under the deal. 'On calorie reduction, and the other pledges already issued by the Food Network, we urge the Department of Health to continue its efforts to broaden engagement and bring in new companies to work with those of our members, and others, who have already made substantial commitments through the Responsibility Deal.' British Soft Drinks Association director general Gavin Partington said: "We welcome the commitments made by leading soft drinks producers. Our industry has been taking steps to reduce the calorie content of our drinks for many years now, and currently more than 60% of all soft drinks contain no added sugar.' The eight new drink and food manufacturers, supermarket and catering companies to have signed up to the pledge join 23 others including Mars and Tesco.
Government welcomes the decision, which will also protect children's teeth . Most of the drinks will still get a Food Standards Agency 'red light' rating . 500ml of Ribena contains 13 teaspoons of sugar and a can of Irn-Bru 7.5 . Coca Cola will not change the recipe of its signature drink .

By . Pete Jenson . Follow @@petejenson . Despite Spain's new King, Felipe VI, being sworn in on Thursday after his father Juan Carlos stepped down last week, the only abdication on the minds of most Spaniards was the one that took place in Rio's Maracana on Wednesday night. La Roja's reign is over. We have spent six years wondering how they managed it; on Thursday they were wondering how they managed to throw it all away. Coach Vicente del Bosque was confused enough following the game to mistakenly try to board the Chile bus. Predictably he led the early polls asking who was to blame. VIDEO Scroll down to watch Vincente Del Bosque get on the wrong bus . Shock: The world champions are out of the 2014 World Cup after two consecutive defeats . Won't need these again: Iker Casillas throws his gloves to fans after a poor display at the Maracana . Head bowed: Vicente Del Bosque got major decisions wrong throughout a dismal campaign for Spain . As Jose Mourinho, who described Spain's football as 'slow, sad and predictable' on his blog, is fond of reminding people when he loses: 'Victory has many fathers - failure only one'. The coach will carry the can and possibly pay with his job. He will not be pushed by the Spanish FA, and has a contract until France 2016, but Del Bosque may decide it is time to walk away. The coach was criticised for not doing enough to renew the team that won the European Championship two years ago; for not spotting the imminent decline. In his defence no-one had done more to bring Diego Costa into the fold and few questioned the 'signing' before the tournament started - only for the Brazilian-born striker to fail to score across 180 minutes. Horror: Casillas has been a walking mistake this tournament and was consoled by Sergio Ramos against Chile . Awful: Brazilian-born Diego Costa has been a huge disappointment for Spain in the first two games . Referring to his move to Chelsea after the game, Costa said: 'My future seems more there (in London) than at Atletico Madrid.' His new supporters will have been decidedly underwhelmed by his World Cup. Del Bosque might also have brought in Real Madrid striker Jese, Bayern Munich midfielder Thiago and departing Barcelona goalkeeper Victor Valdes had they not all been ruled out by injury. Neither was he done any favours by the draw, with no team more desperate to face Spain than 2010's beaten finalists Holland. 'It was good while it lasted' was the headline yesterday in  Diario AS, and many wanted to dwell on the greatest six years in Spanish football. Others mourned the fact that two of their all-time greats had come to such undignified endings - Xavi sat on the bench and Iker Casillas sat helpless in his six-yard box, conceding seven goals in two matches. 'We didn't deserve it to end this way,' said the goalkeeper, while Xabi Alonso, who gave the ball away ahead of the first goal, gave a more brutal assessment when he said: 'We were not able to stay hungry.' Trouble: Fernando Torres looked more threatening than Costa despite struggling for form in recent years . Is that a captain's stance? Casillas looked bemused in the tunnel before going out for the second half . Out on their feet: The Spanish team looked tired in the second half, and were outrun against Chile . Not everyone was in mourning. Some celebrated the fact that €20million in bonuses had been saved. That was the planned pay-out for landing a second consecutive World Cup which enraged many in a country with 25 per cent unemployment. In Catalonia, some were cruel enough to greet the final whistle with fire-crackers and car horns on Wednesday. Barcelona immediately leaked news that they had agreed to sign Chile goalkeeper Claudio Bravo for €12m. The timing seemed opportunistic. Spain's success had always been tied to Barcelona's and there was always a chance that as Barça's star faded so would the national team's. Just as Barcelona fell from grace with a resounding thump - beaten 7-0 on aggregate two seasons ago by Jupp Heynckes' Bayern Munich - so did Spain. Real Madrid's Sergio Ramos led a small group of players who most Spaniards have decided are blameless. It was noted that he was one of the few to applaud Spain's 3,000 travelling supporters at the end of the defeat. Glum: Xavi (centre) could only watch on as his Spain side were utterly humiliated at the Maracana . They can't believe it! Spanish supporters watched on distraught as they were taught a footballing lesson . He will take the captain's armband from Casillas,who will surely now step down. A season spent as Real Madrid's No 2 goalkeeper has taken its toll. The miscontrolled back-pass, the feeble punch back into the crowded penalty area and the hopeless scrambling at the feet of Arjen Robben will be the nightmares he takes home with him. David de Gea's time has come. Optimistic voices were reminding  everyone that Spain remain European Under 21 champions and that players such as De Gea, Koke and Thiago have already stepped up. There is a basis for a new team, but not one that will go eight years without losing two consecutive matches, as this one had. Chile's Alexis Sanchez was gracious in victory saying: 'Nobody has done more than Spain for world football.' The  reality is that in seven days, six years of glory had been washed away. There are 10-year-old boys and girls in Spain who have grown up thinking their team winning was written in the rules. Today they know the truth. Football's crown never stays on one head for long. Six years was a record-breaking reign.

Vicente del Bosque has contract until France 2016 but may decide to walk after World Cup exit . Sergio Ramos set to take the captain's armband from Iker Casillas, who is expected to step down .

Coach Vicente del Bosque was confused enough World Cup after two consecutive defeats . Won't Spanish FA, and has a contract until France 2016, but Del Bosque may decide it is time to walk away. The coach was criticised for not doing enough to renew the team that won the European Championship two years ago; for not spotting the lesson . He will take the captain's armband from
Manchester United were always masters of the late show. They were the team that never gave up until the final whistle, often scoring last-gasp goals that snatched victory from the jaws of defeat. Under Sir Alex Ferguson, they made an art form of it, winning innumerable Premier League games, Cup ties and even the Champions League through their never-say-die spirit. Opponents would always have that nagging doubt in the back of their minds as the clock ticked ever-more-slowly down. When would the onslaught come? Did they have the resolve to hold out? VIDEO Scroll down for Louis van Gaal: My attacking players must have more discipline . Falcao celebrates his winner against Everton on 62 minutes, the latest United have scored this season . Louis van Gaal's team have not scored after the 62 minute mark so far this season . Sir Alex Ferguson's United team made an art form out of scoring in the latter stages of matches . Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's stoppage time goal won United the Champions League in 1999 . But all that seems consigned to history - none of United's 13 goals this season have come after the 62 minute mark. Radamel Falcao's winner against Everton on Sunday came just after the hour - but that is the latest they've scored so far this season. By contrast, they have conceded eight goals beyond 62 minutes, including four at Leicester in the league and three at MK Dons in the Capital One Cup. Falcao's goal was his first for the club and proved to be the match-winner at Old Trafford . Diego Forlan celebrates his injury time winner against Chelsea at Old Trafford in 2003 . Federico Macheda scores his crucial stoppage time goal against Aston Villa in April 2009 . Michael Owen celebrates scoring United's last-gasp winner in the 4-3 win over Man City in September 2009 . Courtesy of Opta . Louis van Gaal's team seem to have lost the knack of scoring late in games, something that is quite alarming considering their porous defence. Compare this season to the last 10 under Sir Alex Ferguson - 468 goals were scored between minutes 0 and 62, while 296 came between minutes 63 and the final whistle. So during Ferguson's last decade at Old Trafford, 38.7 per cent of goals came in the final 27 minutes of games plus that indefinite added period known as 'Fergie Time'. The late show reached its height in the 2009-2010 season when 39 of United's 86 Premier League goals - or 45 per cent - came after 63 minutes. United had even retained the knack of scoring late goals under David Moyes last season. It wasn't quite the dying seconds smash-and-grab raids of Ferguson's era but 21 of their 64 league goals came after 63 minutes. Unless Van Gaal's fearsome front line can ensure every match is wrapped up by the hour mark, it is essential they rediscover that characteristic Man United ability to keep going until the bitter end.
Manchester United have yet to score later than the 62-minute mark under Louis van Gaal this season . Radamel Falcao's winner against Everton on Sunday was their latest goal . United were specialists in late winners under Sir Alex Ferguson . During Fergie's last 10 seasons in charge, nearly 40 per cent of goals were scored after 63 minutes .

LONDON, England (CNN) -- Baz Luhrmann is the type of director for whom the word innovative was invented. Luhrmann and his costume designer wife Catherine Martin, who is a long time collaborator. With a filmography comprising of just three full-length feature films, (and one currently in post-production) Luhrmann has produced a stunning and highly visual body of work that is loved and loathed in equal measures. His films have a tendency to suck the viewer up into a swirling vortex of lush imagery and a lavish production style, often with a frenetic pace that one critic described as being like "a madman on Benzedrine". But there is a method to Luhrmann's madness. The trio of films, "Strictly Ballroom," an adaptation of William Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" and "Moulin Rouge!" all form part of a specific filmmaking technique described by Luhrmann as "The Red Curtain" cinema. Luhrmann incorporates traditional theatrical conventions into his films and morphs them to create visual treats in stories set in heightened otherworlds. Simple devices like song and dance are then used to drive the action. He always surrounds himself with the same creative team for all of his projects. His wife, production and costume designer Catherine Martin, who is known as CM, is intrinsic to his striking visual style. In his directorial debut "Strictly Ballroom," Luhrmann injected dazzling colors and energetic dance moves into the stuffy world of ballroom dancing and was credited with making the genre hip again. Luhrmann himself was a ballroom dancer from the age of six, and the film reflects his affection for and intimate knowledge of that world. An intensely personal director who always draws on his own experiences, Luhrmann told CNN's The Screening Room: "Art and life cannot be separated, they feed each other and creative decisions are based on what will make life rich and what will enrich the story telling. What I make comes from a personal level." It paid off for "Strictly Ballroom," which became a global hit, winning eight Australian Film Institute Awards, three BAFTAs, and the Cannes Film Festival's Prix de Jeunesse in 1992. In 1996, Luhrmann worked his magic again in "William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet," an MTV-style version of the classic love story set in latter-day Miami Beach, complete with warring gangs wielding automatic weapons. But it was in "Moulin Rouge!" that the Red Curtain's opulent and extravagant theatrical style would explode in, spectacular, some would say violent, fashion. Starring Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor, it explored a young writer's foray into the bohemian underworld of Montmartre, Paris. Following the film's box-office success Luhrmann landed a highly lucrative Chanel contract, making a Red Curtain-inspired 2004 film for Chanel No. 5, starring Nicole Kidman. At $36m, it is reputedly one of the most expensive adverts of all time. The maverick movie-maker began his film career as an actor, training at the prestigious National Institute of Dramatic Arts in Sydney, but it wasn't long before he was employing his flamboyant and creative talent behind the scenes. What seems to drive Luhrmann is his huge passion and appetite for all art forms. He is a veritable Jack-of-all trades: a writer-director who has produced theatre and opera pieces, worked as a guest editor for Australian Vogue and in 1999, Luhrmann scored a surprise-hit single with "Everybody's Free (to Wear Sunscreen)." Following his Red Curtain trilogy, Luhrmann planned to move onto epic storytelling. He started work on a retelling of Alexander the Great, set to star Leonardo DiCaprio. But the film was set aside when Oliver Stone's version was released -- and flopped -- in 2004. ""My next great passion after musicals is the epic-- telling a recognizable universal story using a vast canvas of a far away place and historical events," he tells CNN. "I embarked on that in my exploration of doing Alexander the Great. At one stage, I was collaborating with DreamWorks and Steven Spielberg. "We were looking at sets around the world and studios were built in Northern Africa and Thailand. It got a long way down the road but for various reasons, not just because of the competing project, we walked away from it," he explains. "For where we were in our life particularly because we were embarking on a very personal part of our story to have children, it wasn't right. "It's all about the timing and what is right for your life in that moment in time. We walked away from that and I never regret that for a second." After a seven-year hiatus, during which he and CM have had two "magical, incredible children," Luhrmann has finally made his epic film, simply titled "Australia," with a budget of $130m, making it the expensive movie ever made in the country. "Australia" is a love letter to his home country. In it Nicole Kidman plays an English aristocrat who travels to 1930s Australia to sell a cattle ranch. A grueling journey across country with a rough drover (Hugh Jackman) ends with the pair witnessing the Japanese bombardment of Darwin at the start of the Second World War. "It's been a long time since we've had those huge banquet like motion pictures, when I was a kid, if a big epic was coming it was a big event and the whole family went," Luhrmann says. "It's big drama, comedy, landscape -- a huge banquet and I would like to invite the audience to this cinematic table." Luhrmann is unsure if the departure from his normal style is a good career move but is adamant "it's a good life move." "We found our inner spirit enlivened again," he says. Luhrmann, (unlike CM), has been thus far overlooked for an Oscar award, but "Australia," a big, bold movie with a vast emotional landscape is just the sort of film the Academy loves. Come 2009, it seems they will no longer be able to ignore Luhrmann's considerable -- and -- inimitable talents. What do you think of Luhrmann's cinematic style? Do you love it or loathe it?

Sanaa, Yemen (CNN) -- Many Yemenis, like Egyptians, Libyans and others, have been provoked by media reports about a film called "Innocence of Muslims" that maligns the Prophet Mohammed. Last week, hundreds of protesters gathered in front of the U.S. Embassy in the capital, Sanaa, and broke in. Clashes between security forces and demonstrators left at least four protesters dead and more than 30 people injured, according to Yemeni officials. Yemenis have many problems and difficulties in their daily lives. Nearly half of them live below the poverty line, almost seven million of them have no secure access to food, and they struggle to send their children to schools. Such desperate situations are worsened by the ghost of separation in the south, the Houthis militants in the north and threats from al Qaeda, which at times launch suicide attacks. In spite of these conditions, Yemenis feel hurt by the film mocking the prophet. It is difficult for many outside the country to understand why the film is inflammatory to Muslims: This, however, cannot be explained unless considered within its context. The Prophet Mohammed is regarded as the highest authority in Islam. Through him the teachings of Islam and principles are revealed and conveyed: therefore to depict him as "womanizer" or "pedophile" is to claim wickedness at the foundation of the faith. Besides, the content of the film is hostile, grossly inaccurate and prejudiced. It revealed the producer's attitude toward the prophet rather than the prophet's character. As such, Muslims felt insulted by such depiction of their prophet. But there is disagreement among Yemenis as to how they should react to the film. By talking to ordinary people, listening to preachers in the mosques and following posts and comments on Facebook, it seems that the mood of Yemenis can be divided into three. One group believes that the film is insulting and that it is their religious duty to protest against it. They encouraged people to protest: It was members of this group who gathered in front of the U.S. Embassy. The second group, despite being angry, reject violence as a means of protest. They view the embassy incident in Sanaa as an immoral act and believe there are ways to express anger without destroying property and plundering equipment. Such acts, they say, contradict the teachings and principles of Islam -- the religion of peace and tolerance. Members of this group are, in fact, plenty in number. The third group believe it was a kind of stupidity to show any reaction to the film and that it gives its producers the publicity they are looking for. They likened its production to terrorist attacks, through which publicity is intended more than destruction and casualties. Thus, the best way to ensure the film will fail is to completely ignore it. Yet still the film has triggered plenty of political disputes and arguments in Yemen, as well as the other countries of the Arab Spring. The remnants of deposed regimes have used it as a political tool to accuse revolutionary forces of being more concerned to preserve their alliance with the U.S. than to defend the prophet, and also allege that the Arab revolutions were planned and plotted by the U.S. through its allies in the area. As such, they say, the region's new governments, including that of Yemen, are no more than puppets of the U.S. administration. On the other hand, most of the revolutionaries believe the U.S. is not to blame for the film. During Friday prayers, one preacher in the mosque stated the film was intended to irritate Muslims and drive their anger against U.S. interests in the area. He encouraged Muslims to be rational than emotional. It is an exploitation of resources, he said, for a nation to confront an individual who wants to make a hero of himself on account of Muslims' resentment and anger. Yemenis generally do not consider such an attack on the prophet as demonstrating freedom of speech, the essence of democracy. Democracy, for them, does not justify the vilification of other beliefs, but to show respect for them. The Arab Spring showed that when Yemenis protest, they want justice and dignity, which are the core of democratic principles. The Arab Spring improved this situation because the U.S. demonstrated its support for the revolutionary movement in Yemen and other Arab countries. But Yemenis reject "democracy" such as this video, which allows the maligning of other faiths and beliefs. The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Murad Alazzany.

A post on Tuesday written by Indie Rose's mother Jennifer Smith, said: 'We have been so blessed to have another week with our beautiful girl. She has become so fragile and sleeps for majority of the day. 'Her little body is tiny and is getting weaker each day. Our occupational therapist gave Indie a special chair to help support her body as she now prefers to sit up because her liver and spleen are very enlarged it's extremely uncomfortable to lay down. 'Her face and appearance has changed dramatically over the past week but when she looks into my eyes I see my baby girl full of fight and determination. I knew that Sunday was going to be my last Mother's Day with Indie but she has enriched my life so much I am forever grateful.

Indie Rose was diagnosed with infant acute lymphoblastic leukaemia at just three months old and spent most the past three years in hospital. The little girl was the couple's only child and Taurima previously said her illness had been 'tough'. 'You get told by the doctors that there's no more treatments they can give her, you cry a river of tears,' he said. The two-year-old was set to become the first child in Australia to trial a new leukaemia treatment from the United States, but was unable to because she developed an infection in her lungs . By her side: Taurima and Ms Smith temporarily lived across the road from the Sydney Children's Hospital, where they spent up to nine hours a day with their daughter . A Facebook post confirming the little girl's death had received more than 2,500 comments from people offering their condolences by Sunday night . The former athlete said Indie Rose being born with leukaemia 'it's like one-in-five million or something ridiculous'. As part of her treatment the young girl had three intense chemotherapy treatments and a bone marrow transplant. Indie Rose was set to become the first child in Australia to trial a new leukaemia treatment from the United States, but was unable to because she became to week after developing an infection in her lungs just days before the drug arrived in the country. Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia is the most common form of cancer in children but can also affects adults. The disease sees an overproduction of immature white blood cells, called lymphoblasts or leukaemic blasts. These cells crowd the bone marrow and preventing it making normal blood cells. These can also spill out into the blood stream and circulate around the body. More than 300 people in Australia are diagnosed with the illness each year according to leukaemia.org.au. The disease is considered rare, making up 0.3 per cent of all diagnosed cancers. While the disease can occur at any age, it is most common in children aged 0-14 years and this age group accounts for 60 per cent of all cases . It is the most common type of childhood leukaemia, and the most common childhood cancer . The disease is more common in males than in females . Its exact causes are unknown . The trail was the 'end of the line' for her treatment options. 'We didn't want the doctors to tell us 'that's it', but we kind of knew. When they did tell us, that's when it hit home that we won't have our little girl for very long,' Taurima said. The Olympic medallist said it was a 'catch-22' situation, because his daughter could have died in intensive care, or they could spend three weeks playing and having fun with her. Taurima and Ms Smith temporarily lived across the road from the Sydney Children's Hospital, where they spent up to nine hours a day with their daughter. 'It's easier to win a medal at the Olympics than go through the past two years,' he said. The former athletics star said prior to Indie Rose's death that it would be easier to let her go, because from a selfish perspective, it was so painful watching her suffer. He added that fostering might be an option for the couple wanted to have kids the future, but was thinking about fostering, because 'we can give them a lot of love as well'. Taurima, 41, has worked with the Australian Federal Police in Canberra since his athletics retirement and worked as a protective service officer to former prime ministers John Howard, Kevin Rudd and Julia Gillard, reported The Canberra Times.

By . Emma Innes . PUBLISHED: . 08:19 EST, 23 April 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 08:19 EST, 23 April 2013 . Noah Wall, pictured with his mother Shelly, was born with spina bifida and very little normal brain tissue . A baby has defied the odds to reach his first birthday despite being given such a low chance of survival that his parents bought a coffin for him before he was born. While still in the womb, Noah Wall was diagnosed with a catalogue of problems including spina bifida, rare chromosomal abnormalities and fluid on the brain. His parents, Shelly and Rob, were advised to have him terminated but they refused, determined to give their son the chance of life. Noah was born paralysed from the chest down and with a tiny amount of normal brain tissue – most of his skull was filled with cerebrospinal fluid. However, he has stunned doctors by reaching his first birthday and has even learned to move his arms, smile, wave and say ‘mama’ and ‘dada’. Mrs Wall, 41, from Abbeytown, Cumbria, said: ‘He is an absolute gift and we are very lucky that he is here.’ Noah was diagnosed with spinal bifida, a condition which affects the development of the spinal cord, when his mother went for her 12-week scan. Doctors also told the couple that the condition had left a massive hole in Noah’s back which they said they would be unable to stitch up. The couple were offered a termination but they stood firm, adamant that their son deserved the chance to live. However, they realised that the odds of survival were extremely low so they began organising the unborn baby’s funeral. Mrs Wall said: ‘Before he was born we received a letter saying he would not be resuscitated if he couldn’t breathe on his own because his condition was so serious. ‘To be pregnant and have to go to a funeral parlour to pick a coffin for your unborn baby is absolutely horrible. ‘My sister made a Christening outfit for him and we had a birthday cake because we thought it could be the only birthday he would ever have. Noah is also paralysed from the chest down and has chromosomal abnormalities . His parents were advised to have the pregnancy terminated as Noah's chance of survival was so low . ‘I was always positive right the way through but we obviously needed a back-up plan. ‘But keeping strong and positive as a family was important. It was a frightening situation to be in, really scary, but we never gave up on Noah.’ Astonishingly, when Noah was born on March 6 last year, he took his first breath and began crying. As a result, doctors changed their minds and carried out a five-hour operation to stitch up the hole in his back. He was allowed home after ten days but had to return to hospital for two months when doctors discovered an infection in the fluid in his head. Noah's brain scan shows how little normal brain he has - the grey area near his forehead is the only normal brain tissue, the black area is fluid . Mrs Wall said: ‘The first thing we heard when he was born was him taking a breath and then crying, which was unbelievable. ‘We had been told that he wouldn’t be going down to the baby care unit because they were adamant that he wouldn’t take a breath and said it would be cruel to keep a baby alive on oxygen. ‘It is amazing the things that he can do with such a small amount of brain - he folds his arms, can open his eyes, wave to you, say ‘mama’ and ‘dada’ and tell you when he is hungry.’ Noah requires constant supervision, has to be massaged five times a day and requires regular sessions of physiotherapy and hydrotherapy. His skull is fitted with a shunt which is used to drain the cerebrospinal fluid from his head. Mr Wall, 47, Mrs Wall and Noah’s sisters Steph, 21, and Ally, 16, are forced to live day to day knowing that every day could be the last they spend with him. His parents were told that he would not be resuscitated if he was unable to breathe on his own . But they remain positive and are making plans to prepare his legs for the possibility of him being able to stand. Mrs Wall said: ‘We don’t know how long he will live but we won’t put a time on him. We just enjoy every day and do as much as we can with him. ‘We spend a lot of quality time with him and he gets a lot of attention. We don’t know what he will be capable of but he is going in the right direction.’ Mrs Wall now raises money for Noah, and awareness about spina bifida by running a shop which sells products such as clothes, bags and teddy bears. Noah is now celebrating his first birthday but his family do not know how long he will live . She said: ‘By telling our story we want to inspire others who are pregnant with disabled babies not to give up hope. ‘We also want to make sure mothers take folic acid and vitamin B12 before their pregnancy as well as during as a lack of these vitamins can cause spina bifida. ‘There are 900 pregnancies with spinal defects every year and only 200 babies are actually born. ‘I wish someone had told me about the importance of taking folic acid before pregnancy. I had taken it, but not early enough.’
Noah Wall has spina bifida and is paralysed from the chest down . Also has very little normal brain tissue and has chromosomal abnormalities . Parents were advised to have abortion as chance of survival was so low . He has now defied doctors to say 'mama', 'dada', smile and move his arms .

Sir Winston Churchill's bravery in leading Britain during the Second World War may have been down to him suffering 'short man syndrome', a new book by Boris Johnson has claimed. The Mayor of London says that with the wartime prime minister standing at just five feet six inches tall, there is evidence to suggest he was driven to succeed to prove a point to bigger bullies at school, who teased him for his height. So-called 'short man syndrome' has been described by scientists where short men overcompensate for their lack of height through acts of aggression. Scroll down for video . A new biography of wartime leader Sir Winston Churchill by Boris Johnson suggests he may have suffered from 'short-man' syndrome . The Mayor of London says there is evidence to suggest he was driven to succeed to prove a point to bullies at school, who teased him for his height . It has long been associated with some of history's most notorious tyrants, including Adolf Hitler, Napoleon, Mussolini and Stalin. And in Mr Johnson's new biography on Churchill, who was two inches shorter than Hitler, he suggests the syndrome was what spurred him on to tackle bigger bullies. In the book, serialised in the Telegraph, Mr Johnson writes: 'Who else was 5 foot 6 or under? Some of the biggest tyrants and creeps in world history: Augustus (5 feet 6), Napoleon (ditto), Mussolini (ditto) Stalin (teensy at 5 feet 4). Hitler was only 5 feet 8. 'All these characters have been associated with the over-compensatory aggression that is sometimes referred to as 'short-man' syndrome; and there is some evidence, at least on the face of it, that Churchill did, too.' At five foot eight, Hitler, left, was two inches taller than Winston Churchill. So-called 'short-man' syndrome is often referred to as Napoleon Complex, named after Napoleon Bonaparte, right, who was five feet seven . The new book, called The Churchill Factor, took the author over a year to research and will be published later this month ahead of the 50th anniversary of the leader's death. In it Mr Johnson also explains how Churchill's early life as a pupil at the prestigious Harrow School may have led him to show he was made of stern stuff after being bullied for being a 'runt'. He explains that Churchill was not in the Harrow football team, the school's more violent version of the game, or the cricket team and even ran away from other pupils on one occasion when they threw cricket balls at him. He also suggests that he probably would have been picked on for his lisp and speech impediment too. Mr Johnson, who himself is five feet ten inches tall, adds: 'Churchill's bravery wasn't something he just put on. It wasn't a mask he struggled with. He was made like that. The spirit of derring-do just pumped through his veins, like some higher-octane fuel than the one the rest of us run on. Nothing could stop him.' However, Mr Johnson explains that what sets Churchill apart from other 20th Century leaders was his 'greatness of heart' and his ability to be immensely compassionate. He points out that when Churchill's mother decided to sack his nanny, he used his small income to give her financial support as he was so appalled. Studies into so-called short-man syndrome say that society's obsession with height forces smaller men to overcompensate by becoming chippy, more aggressive and - in extreme cases - lust power. However, some have questioned whether the syndrome, sometimes called Napoleon complex after Napoleon Bonaparte is real. Historians have also pointed out that at 5 feet 7, Napoleon was around the average height for his day. Mr Johnson also points out that tyrants Mussolini, left, and Stalin, right, have also been associated with short-man syndrome . Meanwhile Mr Johnson has also said he believed the wartime leader would have approved of Parliament’s decision to back air strikes on ISIS. He made the comments after revealing thousands of terror suspects in the UK are being monitored by the security services. 'I think he would be appalled by the spectacle of these cowards executing journalists, and I think he would have wanted to do something to set them back a long way, and if need be, to neutralise them altogether,’ Mr Johnson said. ‘He was a great believer in air power – don’t forget he invented the RAF – so I think he’d do exactly what the Prime Minister is doing.’

By . James Gordon . The world's biggest retailer is also America's most popular store. Walmart is the nation's favorite place to shop with more than 4,570 locations, in 2012 the supermarket chain brought in nearly $329 billion in retail sales. The Golden Arches of McDonald's came in at number two on the list compiled by Placed, a consumer habits data service provider that monitors American consumer activity. The place to go: Americans' favorite place to go of all is Walmart. They have increased their store count to 4,570 locations in 2012, and spent $1.8 billion on advertising that same year . Top of the food chain: McDonald's was by far the most visited fast-food restaurant in the nation in March. Although McDonald's remains hugely popular . According to the report, half off the retailers Americans are visiting these days are fast-food restaurants or stores that are chains throughout the country.

Burmese security forces backed by Buddhist monks have "committed crimes against humanity" in a campaign of ethnic cleansing that has displaced more than 125,000 Rohingya Muslims in the southwest of the country, according to a new report from Human Rights Watch. The report comes as the European Union was due to meet this week to decide whether to lift sanctions on Myanmar, the South East Asian country also known as Burma. The Rohingya are a stateless Muslim minority living in Rakhine -- thought to number between 800,000 and one million -- who claim they have been persecuted by Myanmar's military during its decades of authoritarian rule. Though many Rohingya have only known life in Myanmar, they are viewed by Rakhine's estimated three million Buddhists as intruders from neighboring Bangladesh. The rights group interviewed more than 100 people on both sides of the conflict following sectarian violence in Arakan state in 2012 in which more than 180 people were killed, and concluded that the violence had been tacitly sanctioned by the Burmese government and its security forces. "The absence of accountability against those to blame lends credence to allegations that this was a government-appointed campaign of ethnic cleansing in which crimes against humanity were committed," the report stated. Witnesses described how security forces stood by or joined in with Arakanese men wielding machetes, swords, homemade guns and Molotov cocktails as they descended on villages in what appeared to be a coordinated series of attacks on townships over a wide area of the state. HRW said that satellite imagery from just 5 of the 13 townships attacked since June showed destruction of 4,862 structures across 348 acres of mostly Muslim-owned residential property. In the worst incident at Yah Thei village on October 23, 2012, witnesses told HRW how security forces aided local mobs by disarming Rohingya of the primitive weapons they were carrying to defend themselves. During the daylong attack, at least 70 Rohingya were killed including 28 children of which 13 were aged under five. "First the soldiers told us, 'Do not do anything, we will protect you, we will save you', so we trusted them," a 25-year-old Rohingya survivor told Human Rights Watch. "But later they broke that promise. The Arakanese beat and killed us very easily. The security did not protect us from them." The rights group blamed local Buddhist monks and the two-year-old nationalist Rakhine Nationalities Development Party (RNDP) for encouraging and orchestrating the violence. Between June and October, according to the report, these and other ultra-nationalist groups issued pamphlets and public statements demonizing Rohingyas, at times using the phrase "ethnic cleansing." "During the first wave of violence in June security forces not only stood by and watched as Muslim communities were being attacked but in some cases they directly participated in those attacks," Matthew Smith told CNN from the Bangkok office of HRW. "In the time between June and October (when the second wave of attacks occurred) there was a high degree of public organizing was taking place promoting ethnic cleansing in Arakan state. "Public statements were released by monk's associations, political groups and others and the tensions were rising. The authorities did nothing to intervene, to promote peace and reconciliation, nothing to prevent further violence from occurring." He said the government continues to blame "communal violence" when it knew about the attacks and could have prevented them, adding that authorities were blocking aid to displaced victims. HRW said Rohingyas in holding camps were at grave risk of lethal waterborne diseases if they were not moved to higher ground before the rainy season in May. "There are tens of thousands of people being denied adequate humanitarian aid and the responsibility for this falls squarely on the government," Smith said. While HRW acknowledged that local Buddhist Arakanese had also been displaced by the violence, the burden of the humanitarian disaster had fallen on the Rohingya population who have suffered decades of abuse under discriminatory Burmese citizenship laws. Myanmar does not recognize them as citizens or one of the 135 recognized ethnic groups living in the country. "Some Arakanese have suffered greatly in this situation," Smith said. "In June, there was violence perpetrated by both Rohingya Muslims and Arakanese Buddhists although it was there was a much smaller level of displacement among the Arakanese community. "For example, Buddhist monks in Mrauk-U explained to me how at least 16 Arakanese Buddhists had died in the violence in the township." He said that, for the most part, Arakanese Buddhists have resumed life as usual, attending to their fields, going to tea shops and monasteries while Rohingya Muslims are still subject to abuse from security forces and live under an active policy of segregation and containment within the government's camps. "There is a serious concern that the government will not take seriously the right of these displaced people to return to their homes," Smith said. But Myanmar presidential spokesman Ye Htut accused HRW of timing its report to coincide with the EU sanctions decision. "The government will not pay attention to such a one-sided report," he said in comments posted on his Facebook page. Last month, Myanmar's President Thein Sein placed the city of Meiktila in the region under a state of emergency as sectarian strife simmered. The president said some were exploiting the situation to engineer violence in other parts of the country. "I would like to warn all political opportunists and religious extremists who try to exploit the noble teachings of these religions and have tried to plant hatred among people of different faiths for their own self-interest: Their efforts will not be tolerated," he said.
Human Rights Watch accuses Myanmar of tacitly supporting violence against its Rohingya population . The Rohingya are a stateless Muslim minority thought to number between 800,000 and one million . The report says security forces stood by as mobs murdered Rohingyas and destroyed their properties .

A woman teacher who spent the night in a pupil’s bed  wearing only her jeans and bra has narrowly avoided a prison sentence. Bernadette Smith was said to be infatuated with Gary Ralston, who was 16 at the time. That obsession cost the married 35-year-old her job and reputation, a court heard. Abuse of trust: Sheriff Wyllie Robertson told Smith (left), 35, . who kissed Gary, then 16, (right) and lay beside him wearing only jeans and a . bra, that she had committed a serious abuse of trust. She was spared jail . Waived anonymity: Gary, now 17, in his bedroom where one of the incidents took place. He said his relationship with Smith, who was his teacher during third, fourth and fifth year, began during secret meetings at school . Gary, who waived his anonymity to speak of their relationship, said Smith had been his favourite teacher before she targeted him for particular attention. He said: ‘I was thinking I was quite lucky. A lot of the boys fancied her. I couldn’t believe she was with me. It was the last thing I expected. She said she thought she was going crazy but couldn’t help the way she  was feeling.’ Placing the mother of three under a supervision order yesterday, Sheriff Wyllie Robertson told her she had committed a serious abuse of trust. He said it was only the fact that she had not gone further with the boy that had saved her from a jail sentence. Gary revealed how his relationship with Smith, who was his teacher during third, fourth and fifth year, began during secret meetings  at school. ‘When I started year six, Bernadette was no longer my teacher, but we’d pass each other in the corridor, say hello and smile,’ he said. He said that Smith later summoned him to her classroom. ‘I walked in and as soon as I sat down she said, “Ever since we’ve been back at school and I’ve seen you around, I’ve been realising I have feelings for you”,’ he said. Sexual misconduct: Bernadette Smith, left and right leaving court, drove the boy to a park and kissed him . Describing himself as ‘curious’ and ‘excited’, Gary agreed to meet the history and English teacher on September 13 last year. The pair drove to a park in Falkirk, Scotland, and went for a walk but when they got back to the car, Smith kissed him passionately. Gary said he worried for Smith’s job, husband and family but said she ‘didn’t seem too bothered’. He confided in his father, who warned him to be careful but his grandmother called Bannockburn High School to complain. Smith was suspended immediately. Despite their relationship being made public, they stayed together the next night at Gary’s home in Cowie. The affair started in Smith's classroom at Bannockburn High School, Stirling, where she confessed her feelings to the boy, before the pair went to a park and had their first kiss . Gary said: ‘We got ready for bed and I felt nervous. I got into bed with my boxers on. She took off her top, but kept her bra and jeans on, and slid in beside me. ‘We cuddled and talked – nothing else happened.’ His father Richard Ralston, 42, said: ‘I wasn’t pleased about what happened, but you’re an adult at 16 in Scotland so I didn’t want to interfere too much. ‘I want Gary to make decisions and learn from any mistakes.’ Prosecutor Ann Orr told Stirling Sheriff Court that when interviewed, Smith said ‘she loved the boy and they both wanted to be together’. She admitted kissing Gary and staying the night in  his bedroom. There was no suggestion that Gary had suffered any long-term harm, the court was told. Smith, of Denny, Stirlingshire, pleaded guilty to engaging in sexual activity with a pupil while in a position of trust, between September 13 and 20 last year. Gary, now 17, revealed how his relationship with Smith, who was his teacher during his third, fourth and fifth years, blossomed during secret meetings at Bannockburn high school . She was placed under supervision for two years and will remain on the sex offenders’ register for the same period. Her solicitor, Andrew Gibb, said she was suspended by the General Teaching Council for Scotland and would be struck off at a hearing in a few weeks’ time. She has also separated from her husband. Sheriff Robertson told the court Smith’s conduct was towards the lesser end of the offending scale, adding: ‘It is serious enough of course when a teacher admits this kind of conduct towards a pupil. 'We expect teachers to ensure children under their care are safe from abuse and that has not happened.’ He told Smith that it may have been that ‘difficulties within your marriage contributed to this aberration’, but he said many other teachers coped without resorting to such ‘bizarre’ behaviour. He said it was to her ‘credit’ that she had not blamed her victim and she was assessed as at low risk of re-offending.  He ordered her to return to court on November 12 for a supervision order review.

(CNN) -- At least one performer fell hard for Sunday night's Billboard Music Awards. Not sure what that means? Well, check out the top five moments from Sunday night's 2013 Billboard Music Awards: . 1. Miguel lands on a fan . The R & B singer accidentally landed on a woman in the mosh pit during a performance of his hit song "Adorn." He was attempting a jump that went wrong. The fan appeared to be fine and the singer kept singing. Miguel later tweeted: "got caught up in the moment, thank goodness Khyati is okay." 2. Taylor Swift wins eight out of the 11 awards she was up for . Swift is no stranger to taking to the stage to accept accolades, and on Sunday night she collected a few, including Billboard Artist of the Year. "My album is kind of on the ends of the intense emotional spectrum," Swift said while accepting that award. "You (fans) are the longest and best relationship I have ever had." She also won Top Country Artist,Top Billboard 200 Artist, Top Female Artist, and Top Digital Songs Artist -- the last one a tie with singer Carly Rae Jepsen. Swift's album "Red" won in the Top Billboard 200 and Country Album categories and her single "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" collected the trophy for Top Country Song. 3. Justin Bieber gets booed . While accepting the first ever Milestone Award, the Biebs was both cheered and jeered. He appeared to reference the rough times he has had of late in his acceptance speech. "I'm 19 years old, I think I'm doing a pretty good job," Bieber said. "And basically from my heart I really just want to say it should really be about the music ... the craft. ... This is not a gimmick, I'm an artist and I should be taken seriously and all this other bull should not be spoken of." The incident caused the show's host, Tracy Morgan, to quip, "Hey, don't be booing anybody here. This ain't no high school." 4. Nicki Minaj twerks on Lil Wayne . Since this is a family website, we won't explain "twerking," but let's just say Minaj has a little something in common with Miley Cyrus when it comes to the seductive dance. During a performance of her song "High School," Minaj gave rapper Lil Wayne (who appears on the track) a lap dance. Taking a break from her "American Idol" judging duties, the rap songstress received the first award of the night, Top Rap Artist. 5. Prince shows them how it is done . By far one of the best moments of the night came courtesy of a man who hasn't even been on the charts in a while. Prince took to the stage with a new look and celebrated being presented with the Icon Award with a medley of his hits "Let's Go Crazy" and "FixUrLifeUp." He appeared to be channeling Jimi Hendrix with his Afro and wicked guitar riffs while being backed by an all-female band. The crowd took his advice and did, indeed, go crazy. In addition to Swift, Rihanna and Gotye were also big winners of the evening. Visit Billboard.com for a complete list of winners.

A fourth new identity is to be created for one of James Bulger's killers when he is freed from prison once again - bringing the public bill for protecting the murderer to a reported £1million. Jon Venables, 30 - who was released from his life sentence in 2001 - was locked up again three years ago after being caught with child porn images on his computer, but has now been granted parole in a decision that has left the murdered toddler's parents 'filled with terror'. The killer was given a new identity when he was sent to a young offenders' institution at the age of 10 for murdering the two-year-old with Robert Thompson, then a second was created for him when he was controversially released from his life sentence in 2001. Venables was given a third taxpayer-funded identity after he was sent back to jail in 2010 for possessing child abuse images, and officials are now understood to be working on a fourth new alias to protect his anonymity as it emerged the killer is to be freed once more. Decision: Jon Venables (left), now 30, one of the killers of James Bulger (right), is to be released from prison . Taxpayers will again pick up the bill for the latest identity switch, each of which are reported to cost around £250,000. Officials were last night working on giving Jon Venables his fourth secret new identity. Taxpayers will pick up the bill, likely to run into hundreds of thousands of pounds, for the move and for monitoring Venables around the clock. Only a tight-knit cabal operating under conditions of extreme secrecy will know who he really is. One or two senior  probation officers will regularly visit Venables to ensure he is adhering to the conditions of his release.This will include a ban on travelling to Merseyside, and he also faces restrictions on accessing the internet after his 2010 conviction for possessing child  abuse images. Venables was given his first new identity when he was jailed in 1993, and a second when he was released from a sentence of indefinite imprisonment in 2001 aged 18. In May 2011, his name and background was changed once again after a ‘serious breach’ in the security of the identity he had been using.Earlier this year officials said they would not give him another identity because he could not be trusted to keep it secret. But they have been forced to change their minds amid mounting fears for his safety if he is outed.Earlier this year pictures purporting to be of Venables were circulated on the internet, despite an injunction granting him lifetime anonymity. Only three other people are so notorious that they have been given new identities and made subject to lifelong anonymity orders. They are Venables’ co-defendant Robert Thompson, Maxine Carr – the ex-girlfriend of Soham murderer Ian Huntley – and child killer Mary Bell. This is aside from the cost of his stints behind bars, parole hearings, . and keeping tabs on Venables when he was released the first time around. The Ministry of Justice declined to comment today. James Bulger's parents last night expressed outrage last night that one of his killers is to be freed again. Denise Fergus and Ralph Bulger said they were ‘filled with terror’ by the decision to grant parole to Venables. The . child killer was sent back to jail three . years ago after being caught with depraved images of children as young . as two on his computer. He admitted downloading and . distributing the images, which included some of toddlers being raped, as . well as posing online as a mother willing to sell her young daughter . for sex. In May, Mrs Fergus, 45, and Mr Bulger, . 46, appeared before the Parole Board via video link for the first time . to beg the prison authorities to keep Venables behind bars. Last night they spoke of their shock that their pleas had been ignored. They said they had been given no information about the conditions of the killer’s parole. Venables, who struggled to cope with . living a double life the first time round, will receive another new . identity at great expense to the taxpayer. In a statement released through his . solicitor, Robin Makin, Mr Bulger said the decision to release Venables . was ‘misguided’ and filled him with ‘terror’. Mr Makin said: ‘For Ralph and his . family, the living nightmare continues and is exacerbated by the . problems now created by the reckless decision to free Jon Venables . without any publicly disclosed safeguards. ‘Jon Venables is a sex offender who . has murdered once and made it clear when posing as a mother of a child . that an “ultimate thrill” for him was sexual abuse of a child. 'The . authorities have already experimented with Jon Venables living a lie and . it did not work. ‘The decision to release Jon Venables is misguided and fills Ralph with terror. Haunting: CCTV footage shows the abduction of James Bulger from the Bootle Strand shopping centre in 1993 . ‘Ralph fears that an innocent person may be mistaken for Jon Venables and be injured or even killed.’ Mrs Fergus said she too was ‘shocked’. Also involved: Robert Thompson (pictured) and Venables abducted and murdered James Bulger . ‘Venables has shown time and again . that he cannot be trusted and that he is a danger to the public and . himself,’ she said. ‘He lies and manipulates people for his own sick . ends. ‘He is still a huge risk and . . .

They should keep him locked up for a long time yet. ‘They should not take a huge gamble on letting him out.’ Mrs Fergus submitted evidence, . gathered with the help of her solicitor, to the Parole Board that . Venables was an ‘undiagnosed psychopath’ who should not be held in a . mainstream prison but treated in a psychiatric hospital. The mother of three said she received . assurances that this evidence, and information gathered by the police at . the time of James’s murder but never presented to the jury at the . trial, which suggested her son had been sexually assaulted before he . died, would be examined in detail before any decision to free him was . granted. Despite this, a spokesman for the . Parole Board last night confirmed Venables was to be released. The date . of his release has not been disclosed. Neither Mrs Fergus nor Mr Bulger have . been given details of the terms of Venables’ release, a situation Mr . Makin described as ‘Kafka-esque’. Parents: Denise Fergus (left) and Ralph Bulger (right), the mother and father of murdered toddler James Bulger . Despair: On her Twitter page, Mrs Fergus said: 'Just don't believe what I've got to go through. Again.' Shocked: Shortly after the first tweet, Mrs Fergus posted on her Twitter page: 'Venables is getting released' Mrs Fergus’s husband, Stuart, tweeted: . ‘Our country justice system f****** stinks! Murder a child equals 8 . years (give or take). Have disgraceful child porn on ur pc equals 3 . years. British justice . . . you’re having a laugh!’ 'He lies and manipulates people for his own sick ends' Denise Fergus, James Bulger's mother . This year marks the 20th anniversary . of James’s murder. Venables and classmate Robert Thompson were ten when . they abducted the two-year-old from a shopping centre in Bootle, . Merseyside, in February 1993, and tortured and murdered him. They were given life sentences for the crime, but released on licence in 2001 with new identities, to a huge public outcry. The terms of Venables’s parole banned . him from entering Merseyside, but it emerged that he had flouted the . terms by attending soccer matches and nightclubs in Liverpool. Murder case: Police search the train track in Merseyside where the body of James Bulger was found in 1993 . Dad and mum: Ralph Bulger and Denise Fergus on February 14 1993, the day the toddler's body was found .

Grieving: James's father Mr Bulger (right) helped carry the coffin of his murdered son from a church in Kirkby, Merseyside, in March 1993 . He was also arrested over a drunken . brawl and for cocaine offences, but the then Justice Secretary Jack . Straw allowed him to remain at large. Following his arrest for child porn . offences, it was revealed that Venables had fallen into a spiral of . drink and drug addiction because he struggled with the psychological . pressure of living with a new identity. 'The decision to release Jon Venables is misguided and fills Ralph with terror' Robin Makin, Ralph Bulger's solicitor .

(CNN) -- April 27, 1994, was the crowning moment in the life of Nelson Mandela -- the day South Africa held its first elections open to citizens of every race. His African National Congress party swept to power with 63% of the vote. F.W. de Klerk's National Party got 20% and the Inkatha party netted 10%. In his victory speech, Mandela said: "Now is the time for celebration, for South Africans to join together to celebrate the birth of democracy. "I raise a glass to you all for working so hard to achieve what can only be called a small miracle." Many agreed it was a miracle -- from world leaders to ordinary South African voters -- considering the turmoil and segregation entrenched in South Africa just a few years before. Mandela's compassion and political shrewdness helped bring about this change. But most of all, it was the complete lack of bitterness he displayed for the 27 years he was imprisoned by the apartheid regime that enabled him to win over his divided nation and charm the world with his statesmanship. Mandela and his government inherited a country devastated by decades of apartheid -- a policy of segregation and discrimination that aimed to keep black and white apart in every sphere of life -- as well as a black majority coming to terms with the fact that voting did not guarantee social and economic equality. He introduced housing, education and economic development initiatives designed to improve the living standards of blacks. He also made his mark on the international stage. During his five-year presidency, he received 73 heads of state or government and made 83 state visits outside the country. Mandela worked to broker peace in neighboring African nations, including Angola and the Democratic Republic of Congo. He was involved in restoring order in Lesotho after its May 1998 elections triggered severe unrest, sending in South African troops who stabilized the situation and created a favorable climate for negotiations. Mandela led the call for sanctions against Nigeria following the 1995 execution of writer and activist Ken Saro Wiwa and a number of other political prisoners. And he played a leading role in resolving the impasse between the United States, the United Kingdom and Libya over securing the surrender of the two men charged in the Lockerbie bombing. But Mandela often cut a lonely figure on his travels as his marriage to wife Winnie foundered. They divorced in 1996. He was to find love again, with Graca Machel, the widow of former Mozambique President Samora Machel. They married on his 80th birthday in 1998. In September of that year, he was awarded at a ceremony in Washington the U.S. Congressional Gold Medal, becoming the first African to receive the honor. President Bill Clinton said Mandela was awarded the medal not only because of his "10,000 long days" spent in prison but also for his "shining example" as a political leader since his release. The last three years of Mandela's presidency were largely in the role of elder statesman as he gradually handed over the day-to-day governing of the country to his deputy, Thabo Mbeki, who succeeded him in 1999. In his speech at a farewell banquet, Mandela again referred to the miracle of South Africa. "South Africans from every sector had reached out across the divisions of the centuries and averted a bloodbath which most observers believed inevitable, so much so that our smooth transition was hailed widely as a miracle," he said. "Our people have therefore confounded the prophets of doom. We are confident they will do it over and over again."
Mandela helped bring about country's first multiracial elections . His presidency was remarkable for lack of bitterness . He carried his goodwill on many state visits . Congressional Gold Medal bestowed during Clinton presidency .

London, England (CNN) -- A fishing ship whose crew had to be rescued from a fire is limping to port in the United Kingdom, the Maritime and Coastguard Agency told CNN Wednesday. Ninety-eight crew members were rescued from the Athena early Wednesday, while 13 remain on board to keep the fire under control and pilot the ship to port, the agency's Claire Johns said. The container ship Vega -- which happened to be nearby when the Athena caught fire -- is accompanying the ship to Falmouth, England, where both ships are due Thursday night, she said. The rescued crew members are aboard the Vega. The rescue operation was complicated by Athena's distance from land -- some 230 miles (370 kilometers) southwest of the British Isles of Scilly and 270 miles (435 kilometers) west of the Pointe Du Penmarche in Brittany, France. Because they can carry only so much fuel, British Royal Navy helicopters only had about 20 minutes over the rescue scene before having to return, according to the agency. A plane was also scrambled from France to help with communications during the rescue, the Coastguard said. The company that owns the ship does not know the cause of the fire yet, a representative said. "Hopefully tomorrow when the firefighters come on board (it) will be completely extinguished and cleared and then we will know more about what happened," Sue Philbrow told CNN by e-mail from the Faroe Islands, where the ship is registered. Five ships responded to the emergency call to pick up crewmembers, who include Chinese, Russian, Peruvian and Scandinavian personnel, among others. The Athena is a fishing ship that processes fish on board. CNN's Eileen Hsieh and Richard Allen Greene contributed to this report .

By . Associated Press . PUBLISHED: . 12:46 EST, 5 March 2014 . | . UPDATED: . 16:03 EST, 5 March 2014 . Under pressure from gun control advocates, Facebook agreed Wednesday to delete posts from users selling illegal guns or offering weapons for sale without background checks. A similar policy will be applied to Instagram, the company's photo-sharing network, Facebook said. The measures will be put into effect over the next few weeks and will apply worldwide at Facebook, which claims 1.3 billion active users. 'We will remove reported posts that explicitly indicate a specific attempt to evade or help others evade the law,' the company said in a statement. Worrisome trend? In response to outcries from gun control advocates, Facebook says it will ban all posts and accounts that somehow facilitate or advocate illegal gun sales on the social media site . New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman has been asking Facebook to adopt such restrictions, as have Mayors Against Illegal Guns, the group backed by former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, and Moms Demand Action. Moms Demand Action collected more than 230,000 signatures on petitions calling on Facebook to act. 'Responsible social media sites know that it is in no one's interest for their sites to become the 21st-century black market in dangerous and illegal goods that place our families and communities at risk,' Schneiderman said. 'I congratulate Facebook and Instagram for taking these simple, common-sense steps to protect the safety and security of their users, and encourage other social media sites to follow their lead.' Tom King, president of the New York affiliate of the National Rifle Association, acknowledged that Facebook is allowed to set its own rules but said he regards the new restrictions as 'a kind of limit on our First Amendment rights.' Although his group, the New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, doesn't sell guns, he wondered whether it could be blocked if somebody reported the organization's Facebook page. As for legal sales...: There's no way to know how many guns are sold via Facebook, because the transactions are actually completed offline. The rules also include new age limits for posts promoting sales of restricted items like firearms . 'This is something that could greatly get out of control very quickly,' King said. New York has some of the nation's toughest gun laws. It requires a background check for private gun sales and prohibits sales of some popular firearms, such as the AR-15 rifle. Under the new policy, Facebook would allow a user in Texas to list an AR-15 for sale, since the gun is legal there, as long as it wasn't offered for sale in states where the weapon is illegal. But the company would delete a similar post from someone in New York. Outcry: In an online petition, Moms Demand Action warned that Facebook and Instagram could also be used to sell guns to convicted felons, domestic abusers or others barred under federal law from obtaining a firearm . It would also remove posts from any state in which a gun seller says a background check will be skipped, even if such checks aren't required where the seller lives. 'This is one of many areas where we face a difficult challenge balancing individuals' desire to express themselves on our services and recognizing that this speech may have consequences elsewhere,' Facebook said. The company already has systems in place to remove advertising that is false and deceptive, and it prohibits ads for illegal drugs, tobacco products and prescription drugs. There's no way to know how many guns are sold via Facebook, because the transactions are actually completed offline, said John Feinblatt, chairman of Mayors Against Illegal Guns. But such sales have occurred. In Kentucky, for example, federal authorities in February charged an Ohio man with illegally selling a 9 mm pistol to a Kentucky teenager in a transaction arranged through Facebook. In an online petition, Moms Demand Action warned that Facebook and Instagram could also be used to sell guns to convicted felons, domestic abusers or others barred under federal law from obtaining a firearm. That list also includes people judged mentally defective. Feinblatt said Google Plus and Craigslist already prohibit all gun sales, legal or illegal. But he said there are 'virtual gun shows' online. His group issued a report in December showing 66,000 active ads on a popular gun sales website called Armslist. The report said 16 states and the District of Columbia require background checks for private firearm purchases.
The social media giant made the move in response to pressure from gun control advocates decrying illicit gun sales that originate on Facebook . Supporters of the move say it will stop children and criminals from illegally obtaining guns through the site . Opponents like the NRA suggest the laws are eating into First Amendment rights .

Salford maintained their slim hopes of qualifying for the play-off's with Kevin Locke notching 14 points as they beat Catalan 34-22. Full-back Locke scored two tries and kicked three goals, while Junior Sau, Niall Evalds, Theo Fages and Tony Puletua also touched down as the Red Devils moved four points behind Catalan and Widnes with three games left. The visitors managed to run in four tries of their own, with Thomas Bosc adding three goals, but it was not enough. Attempt blocked: Daryl Millard attacks the Salford defence during the Super League match in Manchester . Rangi Chase starred for Salford as he pulled the strings, but Sau was another a stand-out performer on a good night for the hosts at the AJ Bell Stadium. Locke was making only his third appearance since signing from New Zealand Warriors after recovering from injury, with Jason Walton reverting to the bench. Evalds also switched to the wing for Josh Griffin as the Red Devils aimed to avenge their 37-24 defeat at Catalan in May. Ian Henderson made his 100th appearance for the Dragons, who also welcomed centre Vincent Duport back from suspension. The visitors flew out of the blocks, pouncing on a spill from Evalds as Leon Pryce created the opening try for Michael Oldfield in the corner after seven minutes. Elliot Whitehead's crunching tackle forced Lama Tasi to lose possession, but Salford hit back with a surging run from skipper Adrian Morley before Locke took Chase's pass to go over after 11 minutes. Locke booted the difficult conversion to fire the Red Devils ahead 6-4 and they increased the lead when Sau charged through Jason Baitieri's tackle to power over under the posts for his 12th try of the season. Scorer: Tony Puletua (centre) managed to get himself on the scoresheet in Salford's win over Catalan . A touch of class from Chase almost brought another try shortly after, but the bounce just eluded Evalds. However, they were able to take full advantage of a high tackle by Greg Mounis on Chase to extend their lead, with Locke adding his second try on the half hour and his third conversion made it 18-4. Fages went close again for Salford, who were in rip-roaring form against a side that had only beaten Bradford and London on their travels this season. There was no stopping the Red Devils, who moved into a 22-4 lead at half-time, with sub Jason Walton putting Evalds over in the corner with a smart pass after Chase had sidestepped the dangerous Whitehead. Catalan needed a score early in the second half and Mounis obliged with Bosc adding the conversion. Chase forced the Dragons into successive drop-outs from under their own posts after teasing kicks on the sixth tackle. The pressure had to tell sooner or later and it was no surprise when Fages took Harrison Hansen's pass to plunge over and give Salford another 18-point cushion. Chase took over the goalkicking duties and made no mistake. Salford sealed the win on the hour with Tony Puletua crashing over from short range, with Tasi supplying the pass and Chase adding his second conversion. The Red Devils' sterling defence will have pleased coach Iestyn Harris but Whitehead would have scored had he not dropped a pass from Louis Anderson's impressive break. Mason Caton-Brown raced back to stop Morgan Escare - no mean feat - but Duport diCatd manage a third try for Catalan with Bosc booting his 500th goal for the club. Catalan finished the scoring with a late try from Henderson on his landmark appearance, with Bosc kicking the conversion but it was little more than a consolation.
Kevin Locke bagged 14 points for the Salford Red Devils against Catalan . Junior Sau, Niall Evalds, Theo Fages and Tony Puletua also touched down .

(CNN) -- AC Milan have swooped to sign Standard Liege defender Oguchi Onyewu on a three-year contract -- making him the first American to appear in Serie A since Alexi Lalas in 1996. Onyewu will become the first American since Alexi Lalas to appear in Italian Serie A after joining AC Milan. Onyewu, who has also played in the English Premier League with Newcastle United, has moved to the San Siro on a free transfer after impressing with some superb displays during the United States' run to the Confederations Cup final. The 27-year-old has played 38 times for his country, scoring five goals.Latest transfer gossip and rumors . "This transaction shows once again the excellent friendly relationship between our club and Belgian club Standard Liege, particularly their executive vice-president Luciano D'Onofrio," said a statement on Milan's official Web site. The six-foot four-inch player was born in Washington DC to Nigerian parents but began his club career at Metz in France in 2002. He was loaned out to La Louviere in Belgium in 2003 and his form there earnt him a move to Liege, where he won two Belgian titles. He then joined Newcastle on loan, playing 11 league matches. However, the transfer is unlikely to appease the Milan supporters who are unhappy with the summer sale of Brazilian superstar Kaka to Real Madrid -- and the departure of coach Carlo Ancelotti to Chelsea. About 300 fans protested outside the club's Milanello base on the first day of pre-season training on Monday, complaining at the lack of big name signings.

A Canadian woman has become the first foreign female to join the Kurds battling the Islamic State in Syria, a report has revealed. Gill Rosenberg, 31, was interviewed on Israel Radio where she said she had traveled to Iraq, was training with Kurdish guerrillas and would go into combat in neighboring Syria. The station did not name their interviewee, who spoke North American-accented Hebrew, but a source involved in the report identified her as Rosenberg. Gill Rosenberg, 31, was interviewed on Israel Radio where she said she had traveled to Iraq, was training with Kurdish guerrillas and would go into combat in next-door Syria . 'They (the Kurds) are our brothers. They are good people. They love life, a lot like us, really,' Rosenberg said, . explaining why she joined up after contacting the guerrillas . over the Internet. Rosenberg, a civil aviation pilot, enlisted in an Israeli army search-and-rescue unit before being arrested in 2009. She was then extradited to the United States where she was jailed over an international phone scam, one of her former lawyers said. A source in the Kurdistan region with knowledge of the issue . said Rosenberg was the first foreign woman to join YPG, the . Kurds' dominant fighting force in northern Syria. She has . crossed into Syria and is one of around 10 Westerners recruited . by YPG, the source added. Syrian Kurds backed by fighters from northern Iraq have gained ground towards breaking the siege of the Syrian border town of Kobane. But they are drawing heavy fire from Islamic State insurgents and have yet to win back control. Rosenberg could not be reached by Reuters for comment. A . source provided an Iraqi Kurdistan cellphone number for her, but . it was turned off on Tuesday. A Facebook page registered to Rosenberg showed photographs . of her in settings marked as Kurdish areas of Iraq and Syria. Gill, a civil aviation pilot, enlisted in an Israeli army search-and-rescue unit before being arrestedin 2009 and extradited to the United States where she jailed over aninternational phone scam . 'In the IDF (Israeli army), we say 'aharai', After Me. Let's . show ISIS (Islamic State) what that means,' read a November 9 post. Yahel Ben-Oved, an Israeli lawyer who represented Rosenberg . in the US criminal proceedings, said she had no knowledge of . her joining the Kurds even though they had spoken recently. 'It is . exactly the sort of thing she would do, though,' said Ben-Oved. Rosenberg had consented to extradition and served around . three years in a U.S. prison under a plea bargain, Ben-Oved . said. A 2009 FBI statement on the case names her as Gillian . Rosenberg, among 11 people arrested in Israel 'in a phony "lottery prize" scheme that targeted victims, mostly elderly'. Female fighters of the Kurdish People's Protection Units (YPG) prepare their weapons in the southern countryside of Ras al-Ain, near the frontline against ISIS . Israel's NRG news site reported at the time that Rosenberg . turned to crime after running short on money, that she was . estranged from her parents and had tried in vain to join the . Mossad spy service. More than 195,000 people have been killed in Syria since the beginning of the conflict in March 2011, with successive attempts at internationally backed negotiations failing to yield a peace deal. Israel has maintained discreet military, intelligence and . business ties with the Kurds since the 1960s, seeing in the . minority ethnic group a buffer against shared Arab adversaries. Smoke rises over the border town of Kobane in northern Syria following US airstrikes on Tuesday. Rosenberg is believed to have crossed into Syria and is one of around 10 Westerners recruited by the Kurds . The Kurds are spread through Syria, Turkey, Iran and Iraq. In the latter country, the have the autonomous Kurdish Regional . Government. Israel bans its citizens from traveling to enemy states, . among them Syria and Iraq. It has been cracking down on Israeli . Arabs who return after volunteering to fight with Islamic State . or other rebels against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's rule. Canada similarly worries about its citizens fighting in . Syria. Israeli and Canadian officials said they were aware of . Rosenberg's case, but did not immediately elaborate on what if . any efforts were being made to return her.

Jack Wilshere believes England's World Cup preparation was 'perfect' and they 'didn't get enough credit' for the tournament.

'We went forward, and it was only a few individual mistakes that let us down, and at that level you get punished. 'In the Premier League sometimes you can get away with it, but at that level, with players like Luis Suarez and Mario Balotelli, they'll punish you.

'Unfortunately we didn't get the results we wanted, but if you look back at the videos, going forward we were excellent.

The young Gunner also said he believed England were entering a 'new era' after the international retirements of Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard. 'It's a new era if you like.

A 19-year-old could serve a life sentence in prison because he made pot brownies with hash oil instead of solid marijuana. Texas teen Jacob Lavoro may be charged with a first degree felony because he decided to use hash oil in a brownie recipe. The state is permitted to use the entire weight of the brownies including the butter, milk, sugar and cocoa to calculate the weight of the drugs. Round Rock, Texas officials confiscated 1.5 pounds of brownies and Lavoro, who would have been charged with a misdemeanor had he used solid weed instead of hash oil, could serve anywhere from 5 years to life in prison. Jacob Lavoro, 19, may face life in prison because he made pot brownies using hash oil instead of solid marijuana which would have warranted a mere misdemeanor . Jacob Lavoro (pictured left and right) has no prior criminal record and his family and his lawyer is ready to fight to grant him a lesser charge . Lavoro's lawyer Jack Holmes told KUTV.com that Lavoro's punishment isoo harsh and is 'higher than the punishment range for sexual assault or aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. It's kind of crazy.' 'I’ve been doing this 22 years as a lawyer and I’ve got 10 years as a police officer and I’ve never seen anything like this before,' he said. 'They’ve weighed baked goods in this case. It ought to be a misdemeanor.' Jacob's father Joe Lavoro told reporters that his son did something illegal and should absolutely be punished but that his punishment should equal the crime. 'Five years to life? I'm sorry, I'm a law abiding citizen. I'm a conservative. I love my country. I'm a Vietnam veteran, but I'll be damned ... this is wrong, this is damn wrong!' he told KEYE-TV. 'If [Jacob] did something wrong he should be punished but to the extent that makes sense. This is illogical. I'm really upset, and I'm frightened, I'm frightened for my son.' Jacob, a former high school football player has an entirely clean record prior to his current charge. Homes pointed out to reporters that Lavoro is in the same county that 'withheld evidence in the Morton case, where a man spent 25 years in prison and he was completely innocent ... so you have to keep that in mind too.' Holmes says he will fight for Jacob to get a more lenient sentence. Since Lavoro used hash oil (left) officials were able to weigh the brownies, including the cooking ingredients, to determine the weight of his drug possession . Jacob's father Joe thinks his son should be punished for his actions but that 5 years to life in prison is too harsh a sentence .

San Francisco (CNN) -- Faster, thinner laptops with hi-res screens. FaceTime video chatting over cellular networks. And a smarter Siri. But no upgrades to Apple TV -- at least, not yet. That, in brief, is what Apple will be rolling out to its users over the next six months. The company announced these updates, and a bunch of other significant if not surprising news, during a keynote presentation Monday kicking off its annual developers' conference. Here are the highlights: . Refreshed MacBooks . The most impressive new product announced Monday may be a new MacBook laptop with a high-resolution display that Apple says will contain 5 million pixels -- 3 million more than an HD television. "The new MacBook Pro is the most advanced Mac we have ever built," said Apple CEO Tim Cook. The new "retina display" MacBook Pro measures 15.5 inches across and contains an Intel quad-core i7 processor. It will feature up to 16GB of memory and up to 768GB of internal flash storage, Marketing Vice President Phil Schiller told attendees. It goes on sale today. Schiller said the new computer's display -- similar to the one in the company's newest iPad -- is the highest-resolution display of any notebook, or simple laptop, on the market. Users will get up to 7 hours of battery life, he said. The laptop is about .7 inches thick and weighs less than 4.5 pounds -- about the size and weight of a MacBook Air, he said. Prices for the new MacBook Pro will start at $2,199 for a model with 8GB of memory. Schiller also unveiled other MacBook Pros without high-res displays but with processors he said will be 60% faster than current models. The 13-inch model will sell for $1,199 to $1,499, depending on storage, while the 15-inch will be $1,799 to $2,199. They start shipping today, he said. Schiller also introduced MacBook Air laptops with faster, new-generation Intel core processors. Prices for the 11-inch MacBook Air range from $999 to $1,199 -- $100 less than before -- while the 14-inch is $1,199 and $1,499. They also become available today, which explains why Apple's online store was down Monday morning. There was no word Monday on retina-display screens for the MacBook Air. "The products we make, combined with the apps that you create, can fundamentally change the world," Cook told developers in closing the keynote. "And, really, I can't think of a better reason for getting up in the morning." iOS 6 and Siri . Apple also announced Monday that an improved version of voice-controlled "assistant" Siri is coming to iPhones -- and, for the first time, to the iPad -- as part of its newest mobile operating system. A more efficient Siri will be part of iOS 6, the next generation of the Apple system that runs iPhones and iPads. That system, which enhances mobile devices with more than 200 new features, is expected to be available this fall. Siri is going international: In addition to English and a handful of other languages she will now process Spanish, Italian, Korean, Mandarin and Cantonese -- a nod to Apple's growing popularity in China. Users will be able to ask Siri to update their status on Facebook, post to Twitter or launch an app. Siri also is becoming more of a sports fan. She will deliver scores and stats, and as seen in an onstage demo can even tell you which basketball player is taller -- Kobe Bryant or LeBron James (it's LeBron, in case you're wondering). In other iOS 6 news, Apple announced that its FaceTime video-chat feature for newer iPhones and iPads will work over cellular networks, not just Wi-Fi. As expected, Apple also is developing its own GPS-based mapping application to replace Google Maps in iOS 6. The product will work with Siri to offer voice-controlled, turn-by-turn navigation, letting motorists use it to guide them through unfamiliar neighborhoods. "In iOS 6 we have built an entire new mapping system from the ground up. And it looks beautiful," said Senior VP for iOS Scott Forstall. "We're covering the world." The Apple maps will include a local search feature, integrated with Yelp, that already has 100 million business listings, Forstall says. Apple also will enhance its maps with a real-time traffic application that will include anonymous, crowdsourced information from users. Apple's maps app also will include a Flyover feature, which offers interactive 3-D views of popular cities.. Apple also said the next generation of its OS X operating system for laptops and desktops, dubbed Mountain Lion, will be available next month for $19.99. Mountain Lion will contain more than 2,000 new features, including iMessages, speech-to-text dictation and predictive "smart search" in the Safari browser. The new Mountain Lion system also adds something called Power Nap, a new feature that keeps your laptop up to date while it sleeps by automatically refreshing mail, contacts and other apps. Thirty billion apps and counting . The event runs through Friday and is the company's first World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC) since co-founder and longtime chief Steve Jobs died last fall. As usual, Cook began the keynote with a batch of new stats about Apple's impressive growth. The App Store now has 400 million accounts -- the largest number of accounts with credit cards anywhere on the Internet, he said. Some 650,000 apps are now available. "Customers have now downloaded an astounding 30 billion apps," Cook said. Many observers had expected Apple to announce upgrades to its Apple TV, the little box that lets users stream movies and other content from iTunes to their televisions. Experts had said such a move could be a step towards Apple launching its own TV set. But Apple made no mention of its TV product Monday. Apple has sometimes used past WWDCs to unveil new iPhones. But because its most recent model, the iPhone 4S, launched only eight months ago, most observers don't expect the next one to come until the fall.

Islamabad, Pakistan (CNN) -- The Pakistan Taliban claimed responsibility Thursday for a suicide bombing outside a police station in northwestern Pakistan that left at least 25 people dead, saying it was part of a series of attacks to avenge the killing of al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden. In a phone call to CNN, Taliban spokesman Ihsan Ullah Ihsan said Pakistani security forces and government officials are killing innocent mujahedeen and "we will take revenge from them by killing their loved ones, as we did in Thursday's attack." At least 56 people were injured in the explosion, which happened near local law-enforcement and court buildings, said Abdul Rasheed, the police chief of Hangu district. The district is in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, not far from the border with Afghanistan. The suicide bomber blew himself up in a car, said Masood Khan Afridi, a senior police official in Hangu. Pakistani Prime Minister Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani "strongly condemned" the attack, according to a statement from his office. "The prime minister, while reiterating the government's resolve to fight the terrorist elements until their complete elimination, said that those targeting the innocent people are in fact the enemies of humanity," the statement said. "They... have no regard for the human life or creed as they are following their own nefarious agenda." Gilani called on the population to unify and "defeat these anti-state elements," the statement said, adding that the prime minister also directed law enforcement to mount a rigorous investigation into the attack. A team of U.S. Navy SEALs raided bin Laden's compound and killed him May 2 in Abbottabad, Pakistan. Several al Qaeda-affiliated groups have vowed to launch attacks in retaliation. CNN's Nasir Habib contributed to this report .

The attack happened after militants fired mortar shells at an army base where suspects facing terrorism charges were being held in Taji, about 12 miles north of Baghdad. Scroll down for video . At least 60 people, including 52 prisoners and eight police officers, have been killed after a bus transporting them was hit by roadside bombs before gunmen opened fire . No group immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, and the motivation remains unclear. Gun attacks have become common in Iraq after militant group Islamic State seized territory in the north east . Fearing a jailbreak, prison officers filed detainees on to buses and evacuated. But as the prisoners were being taken through an area nearby, militants attacked again. Roadside bombs were set off, leading to a gun battle that left 52 prisoners and eight soldiers dead, the officials said, adding that another eight soldiers and seven prisoners were wounded. It was not immediately clear if the prisoners were killed by soldiers or militants, or if the Islamic State group, who have seized large areas of land in Iraq's north west, was involved. So far, no one has claimed responsibility for the bus attack, which left the vehicle as a burned-out shell on the side of the road. The motive for today's killings is not immediately clear. Much of Iraq's recent bloodshed is linked to sectarian divisions that have deepened since Sunni militants seized large swathes of northern Iraq last month and declared an Islamic empire. Sunni militants have been carrying out attacks around the southern edge of Baghdad. In response Shiite militias have been abducting Sunnis they suspect of militancy in rural districts of Baghdad, with many later turning up dead. At the time of the attack, inmates were being evacuated from a prison complex after it was hit with mortars . It was not immediately clear if the prisoners were killed by soldiers or militants, or if the Islamic State group was involved in the attack . The tit-for-tat attacks have escalated dramatically since the Sunni militants advance towards Baghdad, the most serious challenge to the Shiite-led government of Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki since the withdrawal of U.S. forces in 2011. Mass killings have become a regular occurrence in Iraq for the first time since the worst days of sectarian and ethnic cleansing in 2006-2007. Elsewhere in Iraq today, lawmakers elected a veteran Kurdish politician as the nation's new president. Fouad Massoum, 76, one of the founders of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan party led by Iraq's previous President Jalal Talabani, accepted the mostly ceremonial position after winning two-thirds of the votes in parliament. The vote for president marks an important milestone towards reaching consensus between the country's main political parties, seen as key to stemming the crisis in the country. Massoum is considered a soft-spoken moderate, known for keeping good relations with Sunni and Shiite Arab politicians. But in a sign that the country itself remains deeply divided, Kurdish peshmerga fighters seized yet more land in their fight against Islamic State militants. Much of Iraq's recent bloodshed is linked to sectarian divisions that have deepened since Sunni militants seized large swathes of northern Iraq last month and declared an Islamic empire . The Kurds have spent weeks battling militants in Jalawla, 115 km (70 miles) northeast of Baghdad, and took complete control of the town today after overnight clashes. Jalawla lies in disputed territory, and is one of several towns where Iraqi troops and Kurdish regional guards have previously faced off against each other. In June, Kurdish forces took control of the northern oil city of Kirkuk after government troops abandoned their posts in the face of the Sunni Islamist rebel march towards Baghdad. Kurds have long dreamed of taking Kirkuk and its huge oil reserves. They regard the city, just outside their autonomous region, as their historical capital. Thursday's violence underscored the urgent need for Iraqi leaders to form a power-sharing government to hold Iraq together as its future as its unified state is increasingly under threat from the advance of Sunni Islamist militants. Iraq's million-strong army, trained and equipped by the United States, has largely collapsed, especially in the north, after Islamists overran the city of Mosul last month. Iraq's politicians have been in deadlock over forming a new government since an election in April.

The exact location of the group is unknown, but the group have been told to stay put and it is hoped they will be out of the bush by midday. Police said the group were quite experienced bush walkers, but they were not prepared for an overnight stay, particularly in the Blue Mountains where temperatures dropped to seven degrees overnight. 'They certainly weren't dressed for overnight activities. Between the seven of them they only had two torches,' Insp Shack Evans told ABC Radio.

(CNN) -- A superb goal from Mesut Ozil on the hour mark saw Germany go through to the last 16 of the World Cup with a 1-0 win over Ghana at Soccer City on Wednesday night. The victory also secures Germany's passage as Group D winners and they will now play England on Sunday in Bloemfontien for a place in the quarterfinals. Australia beat Serbia 2-1 in Nelspruit but the effort was in vain as Ghana go through as the second qualifier on goal difference. They are the first African team into the the knockout stages and will face Group C winners the United States on Saturday in Rustenberg. U.S. and England qualify in Group C . Ozil's superb volleyed strike into the roof of the net gave Joachim Loew's men a deserved victory after having the better of the play, but Ghana also chances in Johannesburg. In the first half, Andre Ayew looked set to score as he burst into the Germany penalty area, but he took one touch too many, then Ozil was one-on-one with Richard Kingson, but was denied. Germany captain Philipp Lahm knocked an Asamoah Gyan shot off the line as the teams went in scoreless at halftime, but his team were to eventually triumph. Coach Loew said he had a word with Ozil in the dressing room about his earlier miss and never doubted he would make amends. "I told him in the half-time break -- you've still got a goal in you," he told AFP. "This was an incredibly intense game and not many things worked out for us. But ultimately we have now reached the next stage. "The round of 16 game (against England) will be a class encounter, we are looking forward to it." Australia 2-1 Serbia . Serbia only needed a point in the other match to go through, but were undone by a fighting performance by the Socceroos at the Mbombela Stadium. Two goals in four minutes midway through the second half from Everton midfelder Tim Cahill and substitute Brett Holman gave Australia hope they they could also qualify. But Serbian substitute Marko Pantelic pulled one back with six minutes left, had another ruled off for offside -- the second of the match for his unfortunatle team -- then shot over the bar with the goal at his mercy. Serbia also had strong penalty claims denied as Cahill appeared to handle in his own penalty area. "This was a game of good quality. I cannot reproach any of my players for their effort," Serbian coach Radomir Antic told AFP. "We had plenty of opportunities but in the end I think that we didn't get fair treatment. We deserved much more than we got. We have to go back home now." Milos Krasic missed two great scoring chances in the first half and also had an effort ruled out of offside as Serbia dominated, but Australia improved after the break with Cahill outjumping Nemanja Vidic for their opener. When Holman converted with a long-range strike an unlikely passage to the last 16 looked on the cards, but at the final whistle both teams were disappointed.

Norwich have had a re-think over their proposed loan of Graham Dorrans from West Bromwich Albion and will start his deal from February 22 so he can appear in the play-offs. Dorrans was due to join Norwich on Thursday but the terms of his 93-day loan would have meant he was ineligible to appear for them in the play-offs in May should they make them.

Graham Dorrans is set to move to Norwich City on a loan deal from West Bromwich Albion on February 22 . New West Brom manager Tony Pulis will allow Scotland midfielder Dorrans to leave the club . Dorrans will continue to do light training with West Bromwich Albion to maintain his fitness prior to joining up with the Carrow Road side.

Thousands of paedophiles have rushed to use a new form from Google giving them the 'right to be forgotten' which lets people apply to get themselves removed from search results. The . changes come after a landmark ruling by the European Court of Justice that people have the . 'right to be forgotten' - so they can have Google search results removed if they tarnish their reputation. Over 12,000 people across Europe have used the form since Google launched the online form . yesterday morning. If those requests are granted, anyone searching for those people on Google will not be shown the aspects of their past that they have deemed to be embarrassing or damaging - making internet searches fundamentally less useful. Google requests: At one point, yesterday, Google said it was getting 20 requests per minute from people asking for their information to be taken down . At one point Google said it was getting 20 requests per minute. But the . ruling has already been criticised after early indications that around . 12 per cent of applications were related to paedophilia. A further 30 per cent concern fraud . and 20 per cent were about people's arrests or convictions. Along with requests from paedophiles, many other applications have come from corrupt public figures and . criminals desperate to hide their past. An actor who had an affair with a teenager, a celebrity's child who was convicted of criminal offices and a man who . tried to kill members of his family were among the first requests. The company has set up a team of . employees to deal with requests and sift through applications from people desperate to . have personal information removed from search results. The team will decide exactly which grievances should be honoured under the European court ruling and which should not. However, the company said it will not honour every application and will look at each case based on its merit. These include cases connected with recent criminal convictions, professional malpractice and the conduct of government officials. WHAT IS THE LINK? Those seeking to have information about them removed can visit the legal section of Google's website or visit the link: https://support.google.com/legal/contact/lr_eudpa?product=websearch . On this page, a form allows users to put in a search removal request under EU data law.WHO CAN USE THE FORM? Only EU citizens are allowed to submit a request via the form and apply to have their links removed if their legal name appears. They will have to explain why the link should be taken down.WHAT REQUESTS WILL BE CONSIDERED? All requests will be considered but Google, but it will have to balance privacy with the public interest, the company has said it will not remove all cases.WHAT CAN I DO IF A CASE IS NOT RESOLVED? In Britain users can contact the Information Commissioner's Office or take Google to court. However, if these types of cases . cannot be resolved by Google they may end up being looked at by . Britain's privacy watchdog the Information Commisioner's Office or go to . a higher court. It means that Google now finds itself in the prickly position of having to balance privacy concerns against the principles of free expression and 'the right to know.' Critics say the EU ruling has already created a divide between how Google generates search results about some people in Europe and the rest of the world. For now at least, Google will only scrub personal information spanning 32-nations in Europe. It means that Googling the same person in the United States and dozens of other countries could look much different than it does from Europe. And although the court ruling currently applies to 28 countries in the European Union, Google is extending the 'right to be forgotten' to four other countries — Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland. More than 500 million people live in the area affected by Google's potential purge of personal information from its European search results. Google said it has established a seven-person . advisory committee including Eric Schmidt, Jimmy Wales who is . Wikipedia's founder and Jose Luis Piñar, former director of Spain's Data . Protection Authority to look at the issues. Concern: Co-founder and CEO Larry Page has warned that a European court ruling on 'the right to be forgotten' will help corrupt governments around the world . However, in an . interview with the Financial Times, Google's co-founder Larry Page warned that the new law will be used by other . governments to do bad . things. He said: 'Other people are going to pile on, probably... for reasons most Europeans would find negative.'
Search engine now allows people to have links about them taken down . Thousands of paedophiles have made requests to remove personal data .

(CNN) -- Aaaand ... take 2! Not one to give up, director Quentin Tarantino has filed an amended lawsuit against the gossip website Gawker for linking to the leaked screenplay for his next movie, "Hateful Eight." Last month, a federal judge dismissed his original suit, ruling that Tarantino had failed to prove that Gawker's actions was direct copyright infringement. The judge, John F. Walter of the Central District of California, then gave Tarantino's lawyers until Thursday to refile. And so, they did. And they're seeking more than $1 million. Tarantino's lawyers are arguing that Gawker encouraged a reader to 'leak' a copy of the screenplay, downloaded it, and then made it available to the public by linking to it. "Gawker has made a business of predatory journalism, violating people's rights to make a buck," the amended lawsuit says. "This time they went too far." How it all began . "Hateful Eight" is a Western that Tarantino said he was hoping to take on as his next project. It's in the same genre as his 2012 hit "Django Unchained," a movie that won him an Oscar for writing and a Golden Globe for best screenplay. He told the gossip site Deadline that he'd given the script to only six people, including actors Michael Madsen, best known as the killer in Tarantino's "Reservoir Dogs;" and Tim Roth, for whom "Reservoir Dogs" was his breakthrough role. Somehow, the script leaked. It was posted through a site that lets users anonymously upload and download files. In January, Gawker linked to the website hosting the script. "Here Is the Leaked Quentin Tarantino Hateful Eight Sript," the headline on the story read. Although Gawker didn't post the script to its own site, Tarantino's lawyers charged the script wouldn't have been widely accessible if Gawker hadn't linked to it. "Rather than merely publishing a news story reporting that plaintiff's screenplay may have been circulating within certain limited Hollywood circles without his permission, Gawker crossed the journalistic line, first by requesting that a reader 'leak' an infringing copy directly to Gawker, then second, after obtaining a link to and itself directly downloading an infringing PDF copy, and then third, by promoting itself to the public as the first source to download and read the entire screenplay illegally and directing the public to do so." Tarantino sued. What happened next . Gawker responded saying Tarantino's suit was without merit. It wasn't guilty of actual copyright infringement. The judge agreed. On April 22, he threw out the original suit, saying Tarantino's lawyers had failed to prove "direct infringement." Now, comes the amended suit. Tarantino's lawyers are claiming both direct and contributory infringement. What's happening now . The question before the judge now is this: Does a site that downloads copyrighted material violate the rights of an author? Whether the "Hateful Eight" project is indeed scrapped is unclear. Last last month,Tarantino held a three-hour reading of the script and told audience members he was working on changes to it. He said making the film is still possible. For now, though, there's the lawsuit to contend with. Lights, camera, (legal) action! CNN's Alan Duke, Gregory Wallace and Steve Almasy contributed to this report.

The car, which was built by Australia's top solar car racing team - UNSW's Sunswift, was able to travel at an average speed of more than 100km/h, leaving the previous world record of 73km/h in the dust. But it is not official yet until the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), the world motorsports' governing body, gives it the green light of approval. UNSW's Sunswift solar car racing team set a new world record for speed with their solar car on Wednesday . It has solar panels on top of its roof and hood to charge the 60kg battery inside . The world record was broken on a 4.2km circular race track in Geelong - south-west of Melbourne - in Victoria at the Australian Automotive Research Centre on Wednesday afternoon. The vehicle to smash the record, eVe, was the fifth one built and raced by Sunswift since the team was founded in 1996. One of the professional drivers who was involved in the world record attempt, Garth Walden, relished the rare opportunity. 'As a racing driver you always want to be on the podium and it's not everyday you get to break a world record,' he said. 'I really enjoyed hanging out with the team and being part of history.' The car, eVe, was built and designed by a group of about 60 undergraduate engineers . It took place at a track in Geelong - south-west of Melbourne - in Victoria at the Australian Automotive Research Centre . Professional drivers got behind the wheel to get involved in the record attempt on the 4.2km racing track . Project director Hayden Smith - a third-year engineering student - was jubilant about breaking the record. 'This record was about establishing a whole new level of single-charge travel for high-speed electric vehicles, which we hope will revolutionise the electric car industry,' he said. The last time an FIA world record was broken in Australia was in April 1984 by a production-based, petrol-engine sedan, and the most recent Australian record was set in March 1994 by Rosco McGlashan in a jet-powered vehicle. But the Sunswift team are no strangers to setting records. They have broken records for the fastest solar powered road trip from Perth to Sydney and a Guinness World Record for the fastest solar car. But the Sunswift team - which was established in 1996 - is no stranger to breaking world records . The team has also broken the record for the fastest solar powered road trip from Perth to Sydney . The last time an FIA world record was broken in Australia was in April 1984 by a production-based, petrol-engine sedan . And soon, they hope to take the record-breaking car to the streets of Sydney, expecting to meet Australian road registration requirements within as little as one year and industrial designers from UNSW Built Environment have also been enlisted to rework the car's interiors in preparation for its application for road-legal status. The team believes Wednesday's performance showed it was ready for day-to-day use. Its zero-emission solar and battery storage systems makes it 'a symbol for a new era of sustainable driving'. 'Five hundred kilometres is pretty much as far as a normal person would want to drive in a single day,' Mr Smith said. 'It's another demonstration that one day you could be driving our car.' The solar panels on the car's roof and hood to charge a 60kg battery, but the panels were switched off for the record attempt - meaning the car ran solely on battery charge. Almost a quarter of the Sunswift team – which comprises 60 undergraduate students – made the trip to Victoria to support the world-record attempt.
It travelled more than 100km/h breaking the previous record of 73km/h . The record was set on a racetrack in Geelong - south-west of Melbourne . The car has solar panels on the roof and hood which charges the battery . UNSW's Sunswift car racing team built the fifth generation car, eVe . The record will become official when it is approved by the FIA .

(RollingStone.com) -- It's been a rough year for Morrissey, as the laconic singer has endured everything from tour-canceling illnesses to possibly being dropped from his new label to bizarre allegations of a murder-for-hire plot. However, in a new interview with El Mundo, the former Smiths singer reveals he's dealing with some health issues that make all those other troubles seem insignificant. According to Morrissey, he's had a cancer scare, although in talking about the disease, the singer doesn't seem that scared at all. Morrissey talks about his health, sex appeal . "They have scraped cancerous tissues four times already, but whatever," Morrissey told the Spanish-language El Mundo (via a translation by the Guardian). "If I die, then I die. And if I don't, then I don't. Right now I feel good. I am aware that in some of my recent photos I look somewhat unhealthy, but that's what illness can do. I'm not going to worry about that. I'll rest when I'm dead." Over the past few years, Morrissey has canceled tour dates for reasons like food poisoning, bleeding ulcers, pneumonia and a sickness he blamed on his opening act, but this is the first time the usually candid rocker has uttered the C-word aloud. In early 2013, Morrissey spent some time in a Michigan hospital after suffering from "a concussion, a bleeding ulcer and Barrett's esophagus." Morrissey denies former bodyguard's allegations . After canceling six U.S. shows following his hospital stay, the singer penned a grim letter to fans where he discussed his own mortality. "The reports of my death have been greatly understated," Morrissey wrote. "The positive from all of this is that there are now no known ailments left for me to try." The singer also joked about an upcoming Las Vegas concert, writing, "If there's an audience of any kind in attendance, I just might die with a smile on my face, after all. If I am not there, I shall probably never again be anywhere. Equally, I am determined to play Flint [Michigan] if it kills me (which, on the face of it, it almost has)." He concluded the letter by signing off, "pause at my headstone, MORRISSEY." Morrissey partners spar over cancellation . In a recent interview where Morrissey talked about his many health issues, he proclaimed that, "The worst was in June in Boston, when I was hospitalized with acute fever. I was delirious for six hours, talking absolute nonsense and unable to stop. I've never been so frightened in my life. Then, of course, you get these bitchy comments for having to cancel shows.... I've been to so many hospitals lately that there's hardly any point in my leaving." At press time, Morrissey hasn't updated his fan sites about the cancer reports. Whatever the diagnosis, Morrissey is back out on the road, and NME reports that the singer's backing band is proudly donning shirts that say "F*** Harvest" as a nod to his record label after the label released Moz's new LP "World Peace Is None of Your Business."

Donald Graham murdered millionaire heiress Janet Brown and got his girlfriend to pose as her so he could steal hundreds of thousands of pounds from her family . The married lover of a millionaire heiress murdered her before getting his dinner lady girlfriend to pose as the dead woman so he could steal hundreds of thousands of pounds from her family. Donald Graham murdered Janet Brown in 2005 and went on to steal £585,000 from her estate, which he used to fund his lavish lifestyle and pay for sports cars. After killing Miss Brown, with whom he had been in a long relationship despite being married to someone else, Graham got a third woman to pose as her so she could ask the dead woman's father for more cash. Miss Brown's body has not been found. After murdering Miss Brown, Graham plundered the dead woman's savings and sold her assets - which he used to treat himself to a Ferrari, a Porsche and an Alfa Romeo. He then turned his greedy intentions on her elderly parents and started siphoning their cash, Newcastle Crown Court heard. Days after murdering Miss Brown, he met school dinner lady Elizabeth Todd and used some of the stolen money to buy her a house. When the killer's string of lies looked like they were about to unravel, Graham convinced Todd, who was today sentenced for fraud, to write two letters to Miss Brown's father's bank, posing as the dead woman, to request a cash transfer into his account. The 52-year-old mother, who lived in a council flat before she met Graham, also made two telephone calls under the guise of Miss Brown to a care home where a friend of hers worked and left messages under the dead woman's name in a bid to keep up the claim she was still alive. Miss Brown vanished in May 2005 and Graham convinced her friends and loved ones she had moved away abroad to start a new life. It was almost a decade later, after both of her parents died, that the sad truth of what happened to her emerged. Graham is currently serving a life sentence, with a minimum term of 32 years, for her murder. After killing Miss Brown (left), Graham got his girlfriend Elizabeth Todd (right) to pose as her so she could ask the dead woman's father for more cash . Todd, of Seaton Deleval, North Tyneside, pleaded guilty to fraud and perverting the course of justice. Judge John Evans sentenced her to six months imprisonment, suspended for 18 months, with supervision. The judge said: 'It is a tragic tale of repeated manipulation, naked exploitation, betrayal and greed which befell Janet Brown and ultimately her vulnerable parents at the hands of a ruthless killer. 'It ended with the untimely death, the cold-blooded murder, of Janet Brown. 'Your part in this appalling tale was, I accept, as do the crown, limited. 'It needs to be recognised, it is accepted you did not know the truth about Janet. Had you done so, had that been established, I would have had to approach the question of sentence on a very different basis.' Judge Evans said he accepted Todd was 'vulnerable and naïve' when she 'blindly carried out his directions'. Glen Gatland, defending, said Todd could have been preyed on by the callous killer because of her physical resemblance to Miss Brown. Mr Gatland said: 'There is evidence he tired to persuade Elizabeth Todd, very shortly after their first meetings, to have her hair dyed to the same colour.' The court heard Todd believed Graham, who would profess his 'love and devotion' to her, would one day marry her - a belief that was backed up when he bought two engagement rings. Mr Gatland added: 'He was a very, very skillful conman, he was able to lead Elizabeth Todd up the garden path. He is skillful at using women. 'Elizabeth Todd believed Janet Brown was overseas and working. She genuinely believed what Donald Graham was telling her.' Graham is currently serving a life sentence, with a minimum term of 32 years, for Miss Brown's murder . Graham, 60, who lived with his wife Denise, sent letters and cards to Miss Brown's parents after he killed her, claiming to be Janet and telling them she had settled in Europe. He then went about gaining the trust of her parents, giving him access to banking information and personal documents. After the death of Janet's mother, Graham even took her father shopping each week while defrauding the family of hundreds of thousands of pounds. During the murder trial, the court heard he created a fake will for Janet's elderly father Eric Brown, which would leave his estate - Plane Trees Estate, in Hexham, Northumberland, to Graham. Eric Brown's will originally left all of his assets to Janet, but in the circumstance that he outlived her everything would be left to the Guide Dogs for the Blind charity. The court how Janet Brown and Elizabeth Todd had both been listed as witnesses on the fake will in which Graham forged Eric Browns signature. Skipton Building Society noticed suspicious activity on Eric Brown's account in 2009 and stopped the transaction of a cheque from Eric Brown to Donald Graham's account. This led to Graham writing letters to the bank claiming to be Eric and Janet Brown, although they were both dead. Todd admitted writing two of the letters, claiming to be Miss Brown and requesting cash be transferred immediately. When Graham was interviewed by police he claimed he was the joint executor of Eric Brown's will with Janet Brown. Donald Graham, of Elsdon Avenue, Seaton Deleval, Northumberland, was charged with 19 offences in September 13, 2013, nearly four years after the investigation began. He was charged with murder, two counts of obtaining a money transfer by deception, 13 counts of fraud, forgery, conspiracy to commit fraud and perverting the course of justice. Todd pleaded guilty to fraud and perverting the course of justice and was handed a suspended sentence at Newcastle Crown Court (pictured) He first appeared at Newcastle Crown Court on September 17 2013 and pleaded not guilty to all charges on January 10 2014. Graham changed his plea on March 14 and admitted 18 fraud offences against Janet Brown and her parents. He denied murder and preventing the course of justice but a jury at Newcastle Crown Court found him guilty of both counts on June 19. The total amount that Graham gained during the fraud was £585,000. Janet Brown lived with her elderly parents Olive and Eric Brown in a converted barn on her parents estate Plane Trees Farm, near Hexham, Northumberland. She had been planning to go on holiday in June 2005 to France with Graham, her lover of eight years. Graham cancelled at the last minute falsely claiming his wife was too ill for him to leave her. Janet told a friend that Graham had 'let her down'. However Graham had secretly met another girlfriend - Todd - and was no longer interested in Janet Brown, only her finances. Janet disappeared before she went on holiday and has not been seen since.

Editor's note: Glenn Beck is on CNN Headline News nightly at 7 and 9 ET and also is host of a conservative national radio talk show. Glenn Beck says the decisions Washington makes today could have fateful consequences for the future. NEW YORK (CNN) -- Dear America: . Happy 300th Birthday! It's 2076 and we've just invented the time-fax machine. (Actually, "we" didn't invent the time-fax machine, the State did -- they pretty much control everything now.) I'm faxing this back to you in 2008 because that seems to be the year we had the best chance to reverse our course and get back to the vision laid out by our founding fathers -- a vision that didn't include the government being in the insurance business. I don't have a lot of time (the State only gives us one 30-minute break per day) so let me give you some advice: Stop worrying so much about who runs the country and start worrying about who runs your towns, your states, and your Congress. I know you're all distracted by the presidential election, but for all the money and time poured into it, the truth is that you're choosing between two roads that will lead you to the same destination. Sure, one may be the Autobahn and the other a two-lane highway, but you'll end up at the same place either way. Decades of Republicans and Democrats alike have all chipped in to lead you to where you are today. Believing that one person, from either party, can change that by themselves is a big mistake. Presidents are like captains of a large ship: They can map out a course and shout out orders, but without the trust and hard work of the people who actually move the rudders, their commands mean nothing. In retrospect, the lack of trust and confidence you now have in your leaders was really the root cause of everything that's happened since. While our founding fathers designed a brilliant system of checks and balances, separation of powers and democratic elections, trust was the one thing they couldn't mandate in the Constitution. Unfortunately, it's also the foundation upon which everything else is built and once it began to erode, our whole house inevitably began to crumble. Looking back now, it's pretty obvious that our trust in government declined at about the same rate as our partisanship increased. People became so concerned about getting their party into power at any cost that the truth didn't even seem to matter anymore. That's probably one of the reasons why George Washington hated the idea of political parties so much. Here's what he said about them in his 1796 farewell speech: . "The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge, natural to party dissension, which in different ages and countries has perpetrated the most horrid enormities, is itself a frightful despotism. But this leads at length to a more formal and permanent despotism. The disorders and miseries which result gradually incline the minds of men to seek security and repose in the absolute power of an individual; and sooner or later the chief of some prevailing faction, more able or more fortunate than his competitors, turns this disposition to the purposes of his own elevation, on the ruins of public liberty." I know that George had a habit for using big words, so allow me to translate into 2008 English: Political parties that put their own success over that of the country's will be the death of America. If you don't believe him yet, just wait a few more years...you're about to see firsthand how right he was. After all, if power corrupts, then the kind of absolute power gained by political parties (and feared by Washington) corrupts absolutely. The best advice I can give you is to stop thinking in terms of left and right and start thinking in terms of right and wrong. Demand the best leaders possible, and then demand the best out of them. Believe me, when you see what's coming your way, you'll realize how little the donkey and the elephant really ever mattered. Oh and while we're on politics, one quick thing that I'm sure you're curious about: Yes, Robert Byrd is still in the Senate. He's 159, but doesn't look a day over 91. Now, let's talk about the economy. Let me see if I have this right: Money and power made people greedy, so you decided to hand over a bunch of money and power to greedy politicians instead. Smart! After using that money to nationalize a bunch of banks, mortgage companies and insurance companies, they moved on to bigger things. The airlines came first -- we just couldn't live without them. Then it was the automakers (Detroit would've died), health care (they said they could manage it better), and eventually, the oil companies (I'm not sure where all of those "windfall profits" have gone). The idea behind it all (an idea that was eventually turned into law with the passage of the Securities Exchange Act of 2011) was to "socialize losses" by spreading them out among all taxpayers. The pain, our leaders argued, would be minimal that way. They were right. At least until the bills came due. See, we didn't actually have any of the money we were promising everyone; we were borrowing it. It didn't take long before so many of our tax dollars were going toward interest payments that we couldn't fund even the most basic of government programs without massive tax increases on everyone. People now work most of the year just to pay Uncle Sam (or, as we now call him, "Comrade Sam"). I hear the State censors coming, so let me leave you with a few other quick things: . • Good call on not worrying about protecting our borders. That works out really well for you in 2019. • You might want to spend a little less time worrying about carbon and a little more time worrying about Iran. We're now in a new mini-Ice Age but, believe me, Iran isn't using their nukes to warm any homes. (PS The International Atomic Energy Agency just revealed to you that Iran appears to be refitting their long-range missiles to carry nuclear payloads. Did you think they were joking or were you just too busy with lipsticks and pigs to notice?) • The currency of the future is energy. Those who have it are thriving and those who don't -- well, let's just leave it at that. Drill for all the oil you can, but you also better start seriously looking for some other options. In closing, remember this golden rule and you should be fine: Your Constitution will never fail you, but your leaders will. Be wary of anyone who tries to convince you that it's the other way around. Best wishes (you're going to need them), . Worker 2744A . PS It's not all socialist doom and gloom here in the future. We just thawed Ted Williams' cryogenically frozen body and he hit 87 home runs for the North Team! The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of the writer.

By . Joshua Gardner . PUBLISHED: . 22:27 EST, 16 June 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 23:15 EST, 16 June 2013 . French airplane maker Airbus, along with UNESCO, invited aeronautics and engineering students from all over the world to develop their most innovative air travel ideas and compete to see whose has the greatest potential to turn the industry on its head. The Airbus Fly Your Ideas competition is in its third year and exists to inspire the next generation of engineers to channel the future of air travel, always with one eye on sustainability. This year’s high-concepts were inspired by a need for more energy friendly air travel and included engines that run on methane, body heat-powered in-flight entertainment, air hockey-inspired luggage movers, and many more. High-concept: The Airbus Fly Your Ideas competition asks the world's most promising engineering students to come up with innovative airplane concepts for a cash prize. One team thought up this Smart Tech Zone . ‘We're trying to encourage the next generation of leaders to think about ways in which the aviation industry could be made more eco-efficient, and to be sympathetic to its environmental impact,’ said Airbus' senior manager for research and technology Dale King. The competition commenced in September 2012. The initial 618 submissions from 82 countries were quickly whittled down to 100 teams for round 2. From there, 100 became just 5 finalists with projects related to the topics of energy, efficiency, affordable growth, traffic growth, passenger experience, and community friendliness—which have each been identified by Airbus as the six key challenges of the 21st century for a sustainable aviation industry. Hot commodity: Malaysia's Team Embarker sees a future where body heat powers small electronic devices in the plane . Electrifying: And the technology exists. An Oregon startup created a chip that turns body heat to electric energy . Australian’s Team CLiMA from the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology drafted a proposal for the development of aircraft fueled by a blend of biomethane and liquefied natural gas, called Bio-LNG. ‘Even if you replaced (jet fuel) with liquid natural gas,’ said the Australian team’s Luke Spiteri, in reference to his team proposal’s potential to improve a jet’s eco-friendliness, ‘you could cut CO2 emissions 20%.’ The Brazilian representatives had a decidedly child-like spin on their proposal. Team Levar from the University of Sao Paulo’s contribution was a proposal for a luggage loading/unloading system for airplane cargo compartments that create an aircushion to move baggage, much like the tiny jets of air that propel air hockey pucks. India’s Team AVAS proposed a jet engine exhaust that uses intelligent, shape shifting alloys to reduce noise. Cleaner burning: Australia's team CLiMA foresees planes powered by methane and natural gas . Team Flybrid of Italy’s Technical University of Milan’s contribution was an electric/turboprop combination for hybrid propulsion in small aircraft. And the final team, Malaysia’s Team Embarker has a shocking concept. From Universiti Putra Malaysia, they foresee a plane where body heat is turned into electricity used to power small electronics and overhead reading lights. Though the technology does exist to turn body heat to power, we can thus far only produce very little form one person’s body. Child's play: The University of Sao Paolo team imagined an air jet-propelled baggage transport system inspired by air hockey tables . Tan Kai Jun, Malaysian team leader, sees a plane where each seat is covered in the heat-to-electricity material. ‘It's a small amount, but imagine this collected from 550 seats throughout 10 hours of flight. A plane has a lifespan of a few hundred flights -- over time that's a big reduction,’ he told CNN. Though each of the finalists’ ideas were groundbreaking, there could of course be only one winner. The air-powered luggage mover, proposed by the team from the University of Sao Paolo, took home the big prize. In addition to a cash award of €30,000, their school will play host to a group of Airbus experts for a week of workshops and training.

Fly Your Ideas competition asks the world's most promising engineering students to come up with innovative airplane concepts for a cash prize.
(CNN) -- For those that live and work in the Middle East, Ramadan is a period of considerable downtime. In many countries, special laws require the working day is reduced to accommodate those fasting (observers are meant to abstain from food, water, cigarettes -- even gossip -- during the daylight hours of the month-long holiday). As a result, TV consumption goes up, and with it, TV advertising budgets. "It's like the Super Bowl and Christmas combined, only instead of one week or ten days, it lasts all month," explains Khaled Gadallah, the managing partner at Dubai-based advertising firm Tonic International. While many countries in the region lack metrics to measure the ratings, there are several indicators that viewership spikes dramatically. An audience measurement system called Tview was introduced in the UAE last year prior to Ramadan, and found that Emirati viewers watched TV for an average of six hours and nine minutes a day during the first ten days, 32 minutes more than during the first six months. "Average viewership is a couple of hours during normal days. On Ramadan, it is double that, because people have more downtime; more me- and we- time," says Vatche Keverian, the CEO of J. Walter Thompson's Middle East headquarters (JWT MENA). Read more: Innovation gets a kick-start . As a result, it is not uncommon for companies in the region to spend a third or more of their advertising budget over Ramadan, according to the Pan Arab Research Center (PARC). If advertisers can hitch themselves to the right program, the benefits can extend well beyond the season. "Past trends indicate that television media that performs well during Ramadan carry their ratings earned for months to come," explains M Shaharyar Umar, PARC's marketing director. Coca Cola and Pepsi are among the biggest spenders in the Middle East during the month, with telecommunication companies often bringing up the rear. In 2012, Pepsi spent $91 million on Pan-Arabic television spots, Coke $40 million, and telephone companies like Vodafone and Etisalat spent between $40 and $50 million each. A good portion of Ramadan commercials are rife with clichés, says Gadallah. "You can expect to see a lot of star-studded skies, night time, lanterns, and some sort of Islamic motif in the background," he says. Traditionally, he adds, breaking the mold can prove challenging. "What stops a lot of agencies from pushing the envelope is this fear of offending people with a new idea." Watch: Backstage at Iraq's hottest TV show . In 2006, Gadallah decided to try something different with Nando's, an international fast food chain that wanted to gain more traction with Arab youth. They decided to take a humorous approach to the ritual of fasting, and depicted a man hovering over a Nando's drumstick, waiting anxiously for the sun to set before taking his first bite. "The beauty of it was that we showed Muslims have a good sense of humor and enjoy having a good laugh. We didn't rely on a local idea that only people from the region would understand," he explains. Though it's been several years since the Nando's ad first launched, it remains the most viewed ad during the Ramadan season, thanks to its internet presence. "The PR Nando's gained from the ad was great. It was not geographically limited to the Middle East, but went across the globe." It is not uncommon for an exceptional ad to take on a cult status during this time of year. JWT MENA accomplished a similar feat last year with a series of commercials for Vodafone Egypt featuring the country's most famous soap actors. Despite the advert's kitsch-value, Keverian notes that the themes, which revolve around values and the spirit of giving, rarely change. "The idea is always caring and sharing. You can show that in the expected way -- using traditional families, moons and smiles -- or you can do it in the unexpected way," he adds. Last year, JWT MENA created some community service spots for Zain's, a telecommunication company. The commercials addressed issues like litter clean-up and respectful line formation. Far from saccharine, however, they depicted people losing their patience and entertaining The Incredible Hulk-like fantasies before reigning in their temper and engaging in the forgiving spirit of Ramadan. "One of the things that's so peculiar about Ramadan is that all Muslim countries live the same routine of life for a month; they go back to the traditional values of their culture -- I would say that's what's at the heart of it," notes Keverian. In spite of the holiday's unifying properties, Gadallah notes that regional differences shape the types of ads that run. "In the Gulf region, you still don't really have the freedom to explore new ideas when it comes to Ramadan because it's still a bit more conservative. In cultures such as Egypt, where the season is a lot more festive, you find a lot more engaging content than anywhere else in the world," he says.

After spending hours on Pinterest, combing through scores of gorgeous decor photos, do you ever look at your kitchen and hear the "Wah, wah, waaaaaaah" of a sad trombone? Kitchens don't work like other rooms, say decorators, and it's not always obvious how to decorate them. Instead of four blank walls to adorn, there are cabinet doors, appliances and counter tops, which can leave you feeling a little boxed in. "When we purchased our home we were stuck with a lot of light maple cabinets. Good storage, yes, but all I saw were square lines," said Holly Modica, the decorating blogger behind "House by Holly." One way to deal with a grid of cabinet doors is a rigorous renovation, but not everyone has the budget for knocking down walls or installing custom cabinetry. Modica took a minimizing approach to her kitchen. "The focus became how to soften the cabinets and add texture," she said. She collected soup tureens, baskets and weathered furniture from tag sales, made burlap shades for her chandelier and replaced only the backsplash. "Now I barely notice the cabinets I once loathed," she said, because now the kitchen is stocked with decorative items she enjoys seeing every day. "You have to look at decorating your kitchen in a different way," said "Chic on a Shoestring" decorator Kate Connor. "It's not harder, just different. The color of your cabinets, the hardware of the cabinets, your backsplash and countertops all make up the decor in your kitchen, whether you like them or not." "People don't think of these things as decor, but they set the tone of the whole room. If they are outdated it can be difficult to decorate around them," she said. Simple paint created Layla Palmer's favorite kitchen feature, two-toned cabinets. She applied mourning dove gray paint to the bottom cabinets of the kitchen in her last home, and alabaster white to the top. She also employed chalkboard paint and a painted beadboard backsplash to create the cottage look she loves. "We made inexpensive cosmetic changes and all of them are easy to change if the new homeowner ever decides to do so," she said, like adding pine boards and crown molding to make their off-the-shelf cabinets look taller. And who's to say you have to keep the cabinet doors as is? "Sometimes people hesitate using glass doors on cabinets because they want to hide all their mess or they don't know how to beautifully style them with just simple stemware," said decorator Rina Norwood of Cornelius, North Carolina. Modica, too, uses open cabinets as part of her decor scheme. "I like to display my pretty things, but keep my countertops clear," she said. The builder-basic kitchens found in many homes can be a source of design frustration. The solution, say decorators, is to think "timeless" when approaching the most noticeable aspects of the kitchen. "I chose to stay within a very neutral zone, colorwise, to keep it from becoming outdated. Keeping the cabinets white with a black counter top gives our kitchen a very classic, timeless look," said Carmel Phillips of Lexington, Kentucky. Updating the hardware, too, can be an inexpensive and effective update to plain old cabinets. "There is something so timeless, classic, bright and elegant about a white kitchen," said "Cuckoo 4 Design" blogger Julia Konya. But you don't necessarily have to erase the dated features of the room. Sometimes, as in Sandra Kent's case, they can end up lending a very specific feeling to a kitchen. "Cabinets say a lot of the time period," said Kent, from Dallas. "My mother has adorable maple cabinets built in the '50s and I think they make the kitchen. Our home has solid oak from the '80s and I think it represents a period of stability." However, when it comes to investing in the kitchen, the practical and decorative choice is countertops. "The decor feature that stands out the most in our kitchen, and I would have to say in most kitchens, are the countertops. They are a splurge that was well worth it and they make a huge difference," said Konya. "I first wanted to go with Carrara marble, but we are a very active family and I wanted something more durable. That's why I decided on highly durable and strong quartz." Kitchens take a beating, and countertops, floors and appliances need to be strong enough to stand the test of countless dinners and holiday feasts. At the same time, there's got to be a cozy, comfortable feel in the room, because it's the place where family and guests are bound to congregate, said Connor. Aside from plenty of comfortable seating, she thinks lighting is key. "People are afraid to use lamps in a kitchen, but they really can amp up the coziness of the room. A small lamp near the sink or under the cabinets adds a nice warmth to a room that you can't get from overhead," Connor said. She finds the lamps she put on the buffet table in her kitchen were an easy decorating opportunity that ratcheted up the comfort level. Are you obsessed with decorating your house?

In the week that Nasa is celebrating the 45th anniversary of the first moon landing, one Japanese artist has taken on a pioneering space endeavour of his own by sending plant life to the edge of space. Azuma Makato, a 38-year-old from Tokyo, sent a bonsai tree and a flower arrangement into the upper atmosphere to witness what would happen. The results are a stunning cascade of colour and beauty as the plant life soars towards the cosmos, before the inevitable pop of the helium balloons that took them there brings them crashing back to Earth. Scroll down for video . Azuma Makato, a 38-year-old Japanese artist from Tokyo, sent a bonsai tree and a flower arrangement into the upper atmosphere to witness what would happen . World View Enterprises is offering balloon flights to the ‘edge of space’ for £45,000 ($75,000). Beginning in 2016, the Arizona-based company will take paying customers in a pressurised capsule to a height of 19 miles (30 kilometres). In 2016 the parafoil, together with a high-altitude balloon, will be used to take pressurised capsules known as ‘Voyagers’ on trips to the edge of space. This will give six passengers two hours of 'cruising' during which they will be free to stroll around the ‘luxury’ capsule - which even has a bar and internet access. Makoto launched the two botanical objects from the Black Rock Desert in Nevada on 15 July 2014, reports the New York Times. ‘Flowers aren’t just beautiful to show on tables,’ he said. ‘I wanted to see the movement and beauty of plants and flowers suspended in space.’ With the help of his 10-person crew and Sacramento’s JP Aerospace, Makoto set about designing the structures and setting up the cameras that would make the mission called Exobiotanica a success. Two separate balloons were used to take the bouquet and bonsai tree into the upper atmosphere. The first, carrying the bonsai, rose to a height of 91,800ft (28,000 metres) in 100 minutes before the helium balloon burst.

The bouquet was composed of 30 types of flower including peace lilies, dahlias and orchids and reached a height of about 87,000 feet (26,500 metres) It then fell to Earth for 40 minutes before parachutes opened and brought it to the ground. The second balloon, carrying the bouquet, made it to about 87,000ft (26,500 metres) in a similar time. The cameras used to capture the incredible shots from high altitude were six GoPro video cameras, donated by Fujifilm.

'I wanted to see the movement and beauty of plants and flowers suspended in space' Makoto explained that the bright colours were intended to contrast against the blackness of space. A six-rod axis was used to hold all of the different flowers in place while they ascended into the atmosphere. The bonsai used, meanwhile, was a 50-year-old pine that was flown to Nevada from Tokyo. This was then suspended in a light metal frame. Despite having a tracker on each structure that launched into space, neither was found after the launch to the edge of space.

By . David Mccormack and Snejana Farberov . PUBLISHED: . 18:48 EST, 20 July 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 01:14 EST, 21 July 2013 . A senior editor of Rolling Stone has been forced to apologize after he tweeted a sarcastic and profane comment in response to the controversy stirred up by the cover of the latest issue featuring suspected Boston bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. 'I guess we should have drawn a d*** on Dzhokhar’s face or something?' Christian Hoard wrote on his Twitter account Wednesday morning. The comment was later removed from the page, and Mr Hoard issued an apology Thursday for his online outburst. Lashing out: Senior Rolling Stone editor Christian Hoard had to apologize on Twitter after making a sarcastic comment about the controversial magazine cover . Flippant: Hoard's tweet was in response to claims that the magazine glamorized Dzhokhar Tsarnaev on the cover of the latest issue . Walk-back: Hoard later removed the offensive comment and issued an apology for his tweet - but not for the cover . ‘Yesterday I made a sarcastic remark here in response to the RS cover controversy. I stand by our cover, but not my tweet - it was inappropriate and disrespectful. I'm sorry,’ the tweet said, according to Fox News. Some Twitter users were dissatisfied with Hoard’s reaction to the scandal surrounding the cover. ‘Have some conviction. If you felt that way, let it stand. And the cover is awful,’ wrote Rob Katz. The cover has sparked a nationwide backlash, with Rolling Stone's critics accusing the magazine of glamorizing the 19-year-old suspected terrorist by presenting him as a tousled-haired, brooding heartthrob in the mold of The Doors frontman Jim Morrison. Boston Mayor Tom Menino and Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick accused the magazine of offering Tsarnaev 'celebrity treatment' and called the cover 'ill-conceived, at best' in a letter written by Menino to Rolling Stone publisher Jann Wenner. 'The survivors of the Boston attacks deserve Rolling Stone cover stories, though I no longer feel that Rolling Stone deserves them,' the letter stated. Members of law enforcement have slammed Dzhokhar's softly lit 'selfie' featured in the issue now on on newsstands as an affront to anyone who has ever worn a uniform. One of them, Massachusetts State Police photographer Sgt Sean Murphy, was so incensed with Rolling Stone's glitzy treatment of the suspected bomber that he ended up leaking a series of previously unseen photos of Tsarnaev's dramatic arrest in Watertown, Mass. The images, which Murphy handed over to Boston Magazine, show the alleged bomber bruised and bloodied with his hands in the air as he emerges from his final hiding place. Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, bloody and disheveled with the red dot of a sniper's rifle laser sight on his forehead, raises his hand from inside a boat at the time of his capture by law enforcement authorities in Watertown, Mass. Sgt. Sean Murphy said he was so incensed by what he saw as the glamorization of Tsarnaev by Rolling Stone magazine, that he released these photos . Murphy's actions have received a lot of support on social media platforms, with more than 7,000 people having 'liked' a 'Save Sgt. Sean Murphy' Facebook page . Boston Mayor Thomas Menino, seated right, is briefed by Mass. State Police Col. Timothy Alben, second from left with hat, and others during the search for Dzhokhar Tsarnaev on April 19 . 'I hope that the people who see these images will know that this was real. It was as real as it gets,' wrote Murphy in a posting on the magazine’s website. 'This may have played out as a television show, but this was not a television show.' Murphy has been suspended for the unauthorized release of the gory images and is now facing a possible termination. However, the police photographer’s plight has sparked an outpouring of support nationwide, which has led to the creation of a 'Save Sgt Sean Murphy' Facebook page. By Saturday evening, the page has drawn more than 20,900 'likes.' The social media portal has been launched with the intent to help save Murphy's job with the state police. 'He did what I think most of us would have liked to do or would have done had we had the same resources,' the creator of the page wrote. Widespread support: The 'Save Sgt Sean Murphy' Facebook page created to help a state police photographer save his job after he had released photos of Dzhokhar has drwan more than 21,000 'likes' Speaking to the New York Post Saturday, the woman behind the page explained that she has been deeply touched by the predicament of the officer, even though she does not know him personally. 'It just hit me very hard that this poor guy, Sgt. Murphy, is getting reprimanded and could lose his job,' she said. 'What Sgt. Murphy did was something all of us wish we could have done.' The beleaguered photographer’s champion, who identified herself to the Post as ‘Lisa,' said that she has been getting support from retired police officers, and most importantly, even from within the state police. According to the creator of the Facebook page, officials from the law enforcement agency have told her that while Sgt Murphy may face a penalty, he does not deserve to lose his job over his actions, which some cops have touted as heroic. ‘I'm getting people wanting to support his family or give him a job if he is fired, people offering free legal counsel,’ Lisa said. Support for Sgt. Sean Murphy on social media sites such as Facebook is strong . Federal, state and local law enforcement officials discuss their strategy during the search for the 19-year-old suspect at a mobile command center set up near the area where they believed he was hiding in a Boston suburb . Law enforcement officials wearing protective gear take positions near the scene where Tsarnaev was hiding . State troopers prepare for the final assault on the boat where the Boston Marathon bombing suspect was hiding . Federal prosecutors, however, were quick to voice their displeasure at Murphy’s actions. 'The release of these photos was completely unacceptable,' said a spokeswoman for U.S. Attorney Carmen M. Ortiz, whose prosecutors . are preparing a case against Tsarnaev on 30 federal charges, 17 of them . capital offenses. 'We have spoken with the Massachusetts State Police, who have assured us that the release of the photos was unauthorized and that they are taking action internally in response.' It is unclear whether the photos could damage the federal case against the man accused of setting off pressure cooker bombs that killed three people and injured more than 260.

A hearing is expected next week to . determine whether Murphy will be formally suspended while the internal . investigation is conducted, Massachusetts State Police spokesman David Procopio told the L.A. Times. Murphy, who has worked in law enforcement for 25 years, has been ordered by his bosses to refrain from speaking to the media. The Rolling Stone cover story on Tsarnaev was released online this week, a few days after his public court appearance. Critics blasted the magazine, saying the cover shot of Tsarnaev was reminiscent of the magazine's flattering portrayals or rock legends such as Jim Morrison. Rolling Stone claimed the story was part of its commitment to 'serious and thoughtful coverage' of important political and cultural issues, but several stores - including Walgreens and CVS - have refused to stock it. Law enforcement officials converge on a covered boat where Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was hiding moments before his capture . Tactical emergency medical technicians tend to Tsarnaev at the time of his capture . A state police tactical response vehicle arrives on the scene in Watertown, Mass. 'As a professional law-enforcement officer of 25 years, I believe that . the image that was portrayed by Rolling Stone magazine was an insult to . any person who has every worn a uniform of any color or any police . organization or military branch, and the family members who have ever . lost a loved one serving in the line of duty. 'The truth is that . glamorizing the face of terror is not just insulting to the family . members of those killed in the line of duty, it also could be an . incentive to those who may be unstable to do something to get their face . on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine. 'I hope that the people who . see these images will know that this was real. It was as real as it . gets. 'This may have played out as a television show, but this was not a . television show. Officer Dick Donohue almost gave his life. Officer Sean . Collier did give his life. These were real people, with real lives, . with real families. And to have this cover dropped into Boston was . hurtful to their memories and their families. 'I know from first-hand . conversations that this Rolling Stone cover has kept many of them . up - again. It’s irritated the wounds that will never heal - again. There is . nothing glamorous in bringing more pain to a grieving family. 'Photography . is very simple, it’s very basic. It brings us back to the cave. An . image like this on the cover of Rolling Stone, we see it instantly as . being wrong. 'What Rolling Stone did was wrong. This guy is evil. This is . the real Boston bomber.

Boston (CNN) -- With words as ammunition, a defense lawyer fired a machine gun burst of questions at the government's star witness Tuesday in the federal murder trial of reputed Boston mob boss James "Whitey" Bulger. "You killed friends?" Bulger attorney Hank Brennan shot. "Yes," replied prosecution witness John Martorano. "Families?" "Yes." "Strangers?" "Yes." "Innocent people?" "Yes," said Martorano, who has admitted to 20 murders and who earlier served 12 years in prison on a government deal for his cooperation in the case against Bulger. Martorano acknowledged he didn't like the term "hitman" since he "wouldn't accept money" for the killings he committed. And he countered the prosecution's descriptions of him as a "mass murderer" and a "serial killer." "A serial killer kills because they like it. I didn't like it. I never had any joy in it," said Martorano, now 72. Prosecutors say Martorano killed at the direction of Boston's Winter Hill Gang and Bulger, who is standing trial on 19 murder charges along with racketeering and extortion charges. Bulger was caught in 2011 after spending 16 years as a fugitive and landing on the FBI's most wanted list. Witness: Heartbroken to know Bulger was FBI informant . "My father, the priests, the nuns" taught him to always "defend family and friends," Martorano testified. When Brenann asked whether there was "any honor or integrity in what you did," Martorano replied, "I thought so." Under questioning by prosecutors, Martorano explained that the six partners who comprised the Winter Hill Gang -- including Bulger, Steven Flemmi, and Martorano -- had to agree on business decisions and targeted hits. Flemmi is serving life terms without parole but avoided a possible death sentence by cooperating with federal authorities. "Was it a democracy?" prosecutor Fred Wyshak asked, referring to the Winter Hill Gang. "So to speak," answered Martorano. The former mobster described Bulger's role in six more murders Tuesday, implicating him in a total of 13 killings in just two days of testimony. In one case, Martorano claimed that Bulger fired the fatal shot that killed one of the gang's targets, a Dorchester, Massachusetts, bartender who was "squealing" about a murder he had helped the crew commit. That testimony marked the first time that Bulger was placed on the firing end of a gun in a killing. In another slaying, Bulger sat at the wheel of a car, while another crime associate, Tommy King, sat in the passenger seat, with Martorano behind him, the witness said. 2012: Bulger's girlfriend pleads guilty . All had guns but "Tommy's had blanks." When the car pulled out "I shot him in the back of the head," Martorano testified. "I was driving over Neponset bridge (in Boston) one day and Whitey said tip your hat to Tommy .... He's over there," Martorano testified, acknowledging that he knew where King's body had been dumped. Martorano said that Bulger's "plan B" to take the heat off the Winter Hill Gang for King's murder was to kill King's good friend, Buddy Leonard, and put him in King's car to make it look like the two got into a dispute that ended with Leonard's death and King's disappearance. Leonard subsequently was found shot to death. Another time, Bulger sat at a table with another crime associate the partners had decided to kill. As planned, Bulger was counting money with the man when Martorano walked in and shot the man in the temple. In 1982, Martorano testified, he felt "really bad" about it but carried out a killing anyway. Outnumbered in the decision by his partners, he killed his friend John Callahan. That came about after another killing: Callahan wanted to buy a business from Oklahoma businessman Roger Wheeler. When Wheeler wouldn't sell, Callahan asked Martorano to kill him. Martorano said he flew to Oklahoma, picked up a suitcase with machine guns, revolvers and masks that had been shipped from Boston via Greyhound bus, and shot Wheeler between the eyes. Callahan was so grateful he paid his friend $50,000. 2011: Clues that lead to Bulger's capture . But when trusted FBI contact John Connolly indicated that Callahan was going to be pressured by the government to testify about the murder, the Winter Hill partners, with Martorano outvoted, decided it was too risky for Callahan to live. "I felt lousy but these were my partners. We were up to our necks in murders already," Martorano testified. He said he arranged to meet Callahan in Florida, picking him up at the airport and helping him with his bags. Then as Callahan got into the front seat, Martorano got in behind and shot his friend in the head. "I felt really bad. I'd just killed a man I'd risked my life for in Oklahoma," he testified. Asked by the prosecutor whether he regretted his life of crime, Martorano responded, "Who wouldn't?" During Martorano's testimony, Bulger sat ramrod straight and kept his eyes focused ahead, barely moving. Bulger turned his head, seeming to look at his former friend sitting just six feet away, only when Martorano said he learned Bulger was an FBI informant.
72-year-old John Martorano is the government's star witness against Bulger . Martorano has admitted to 20 murders as part of Boston's Winter Hill Gang . He testifies that Bulger was directly involved in some killings . "A serial killer kills because they like it ... I never had any joy in it," Martorano says .

Jodie Plume (pictured) has suffered from a sleep disorder all her life, it causes her to hallucinate during the night, believing that her dreams are real . Jodie Plume stood at the end of her bed in the darkness, trembling from head to toe with terror. The scene before her was surreal — yet she didn’t question it for one second. There, looming in the shadows, like something out of a horror movie, swung a large bubbling vat of acid, poised precariously over the bed and its sleepy occupant, her partner Josh. It seemed clear he was about to be scarred for life. ‘Josh, Josh!’ she screamed, pulling at the bed sheets. ‘Wake up! They’re going to pour acid on you! Get up now!’ But Josh didn’t flinch. Instead, he slowly got out of bed, sighed deeply, and led Jodie gently back to her pillow. ‘There’s no acid,’ he murmured. ‘Go back to sleep. I’ve got to get up in an hour.’ Josh was all too aware the vat of acid didn’t exist because, on a nightly basis, he’s woken by Jodie’s terrifying hallucinations that can include burglars, objects floating around the room and even spirits. She suffers from a rare form of parasomnia — or sleep behaviour disorder — which occurs halfway between sleep and wakefulness, in what’s known as the ‘hypnagogic state’. When Jodie gets out of bed at night, she is not acting out her nightmares, since technically she is not fully asleep. Instead, she is hallucinating — and she feels the adrenalin rush of very real fear. Released from the usual muscular atonia, or weakness, of sleep, Jodie can walk around, talk, gesture and scream. She is not fully conscious, but instead reacting to a dream-like world, conjured from the depths of her half-asleep brain. But it’s no laughing matter: the true awfulness of the condition lies in the regularity with which it happens. For Jodie, who’s 30 and a doctor’s receptionist from Thurmaston, Leicester, these scenes occur every night — and sometimes up to six times an evening. Each episode lasts several minutes, and occasionally poses a real danger to her and her long-suffering partner. ‘One night, I woke up to find Josh pulling something out of my mouth,’ she says. ‘He’d turned the lights on and looked absolutely terrified. He told me I’d woken him up and informed him in hushed, appalled tones that there were robbers in the house who wanted to steal my jewellery. I’d then grabbed all my rings and stuffed them in my mouth. Josh had to fish them out to stop me choking. I’ve never seen him so frightened.’ Jodie is with her partner, Josh Adcock (right). Jodie's condition can be incredibly dangerous, she attempted to swallow her rings one night and was saved from choking when Josh realised what she'd done . Other forms of parasomnia include sleep-eating; sleep sex, in which sexual acts are carried out by a person who’s asleep; and somniloquy, when someone talks aloud while sleeping, even making long speeches. Some disorders, like Jodie’s hallucinatory somnambulism (sleepwalking), are associated with partial waking up — and many are thought to have a genetic component to them. Indeed, Jodie’s mother and aunt suffer from the condition, too. Jodie was four when she first remembers it happening. ‘I had tonsillitis and a fever. I woke up and saw yogurt pots and spoons marching around my bedroom,’ she says. ‘I screamed out to my mother and she soothed me back to sleep. She told me it was just a bad dream.’ All children suffer nightmares, of course, and some experience night terrors with a sleepwalking element to them, particularly when they’re feverish. But Jodie’s parasomniac episodes didn’t stop there. They increased in frequency and intensity, until, by the time she reached her 20s, she was suffering night-time hallucinations many times each night. If it happened when she was alone, she would barely remember it the next day. But when friends came to stay, they were in for an eerie shock. ‘I once had some girlfriends over, and got up in the night believing they were trapped in nets or plastic bags,’ she says. ‘I ran over to them, screaming, trying to “free” them from suffocation.’ Jodie took to warning boyfriends of her ‘dark side’. ‘At night, I’d see all sorts of things — burglars, people standing in the room, floating objects, police coming to arrest us. Some boyfriends would be understanding. Some not so much.’ By the age of 24, she was at her wits’ end, and at last went to her GP, who prescribed sleeping pills. ‘I tried one brand and it did diminish the hallucinations a little,’ she says. ‘But I’d wake up so groggy and exhausted, it was counter-productive. I was as tired as if I’d been up six times as usual.’ Over the years, Jodie has tried various pills but none stopped the disorder completely. Often she’d be so exhausted she couldn’t focus at work. In her late 20s, she was referred to a sleep clinic, but to her disappointment, found no answers there either. Jodie (pictured aged 2) remembers her first experience of the condition aged four . ‘I hoped they’d analyse my sleep patterns but they didn’t,’ she says. ‘The consultant simply told me I would “grow out of it”, which I found strange as I was already an adult.’ Children do grow out of some disorders associated with the hypnagogic state. The form of sensory distortion known as Alice In Wonderland Syndrome, for example — where people feel as though parts of their body shrink or grow — is thought to affect far more children than adults. Yet other parasomnias affect those of any age. Some are associated with anti-depressants, or with neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s disease, stroke, or narcolepsy, where the brain’s ability to regulate a normal sleep-wake cycle is seriously compromised. It’s believed that up to 10 per cent of the population suffer a sleep disorder at some stage of their lives. It is thought that Jodie’s (pictured aged 12) hallucinatory somnambulism could be genetic, both her mother and aunt suffer from the same condition . A year ago, Jodie began dating Josh, who’s also 30 and an engineer. It was love at first sight, she says — yet her excitement was tinged with anxiety. ‘I know it sounds a cliche,’ she says, ‘but I knew he was “the one” almost immediately — and that terrified me. ‘There was a cloud hanging over me: my night-time episodes. What if my sleep disorder ruined everything and scared him away? I was so afraid of it that I put off spending the night with him.’ Before they did, she resolved to sit Josh down and tell him just how freaky her night-time behaviour could get. ‘I told him I suffered from a sleep disorder and that it could make me do all sorts of strange things,’ she says. ‘But he just smiled and said I wouldn’t get “night terrors” with him there. I hoped he was right.’ Before Jodie and Josh spend the night together for the first tine, Jodie sat him down to explain her sleep disorder as she was so afraid that it would put him off . Remarkably, for a while, he was. For a few days Jodie didn’t suffer any hallucinations at all. ‘Josh even joked that he’d cured me,’ she says. ‘I almost dared to believe him.’ The lull didn’t last, and over the next few weeks, Josh witnessed everything: ‘Me screaming that I was naked in a see-through bed. Grabbing his face in the dark to check it was him and not an intruder. Telling him things were falling from the ceiling; screaming that someone was about to pour acid on him. All of it.’ A shift-worker who sometimes has to get up at 5am, poor Josh spends much of his day exhausted. ‘But he’s so supportive,’ says Jodie. ‘He just holds me and tries to calm me down until it passes. He’s used to it by now, and he won’t let me sleep in the spare room. Some nights he finds me dusting off his face and body because I can see ants crawling all over him. He just rolls over and goes back to sleep.’ Jodie and Josh are thrilled to be expecting their first baby together, but Jodie is concerned that the child may inherit her condition . Jodie and Josh have since taken precautions, such as removing all sharp objects, including nail scissors and files, from the bedroom and ensuring the windows are closed. They’ve also removed mirrors, since reflections of light seem to trigger Jodie’s episodes. Together, they even came up with a comic name for the ‘other’ Jodie that emerges each night — TEJ: The Evil Jodie. Thankfully, TEJ isn’t always in evidence — and now Jodie and Josh are expecting their first baby. ‘I’m thrilled we’re about to start a family but I’m also frightened about how I’ll cope with the baby and my sleep disorder,’ says Jodie. ‘Will I constantly be waking it? Or worse, what if I get up and drop it? Josh says he’ll have the baby on his side of the bed, which will be safer. ‘I could always make light of my sleep disorder before. In lots of ways it was a nightmare, but I could joke about it. ‘But now that our baby’s on the way, it’s different. Most of all, I really worry that he or she will inherit my condition.’ Yet there is no one better qualified than Jodie to help a child through the disorder. No one who knows exactly what it is to crave the simple pleasure of a good night’s sleep.
Jodie Plume, 30, suffers from a rare form of parasomnia . It puts her in a ‘hypnagogic state’ which causes her to hallucinate . She is not fully conscious but can walk around, talk, gesture and scream .

Brig. Gen. Jeffrey Sinclair will plead guilty to adultery and mistreating his accuser in a deal that will see the sexual assault and sodomy charges against him dropped, according to his defense team and CNN affiliate WTVD. Maj. Gen. Clarence Chinn, a commander at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, where the court-martial has been taking place, approved Sinclair's offer to plea this weekend, making it a binding document, according to a statement from the defense. Defense attorney Richard Scheff applauded the decision while attacking the Pentagon, which the defense has accused of interfering in the case, and Sinclair's accuser, an Army captain the defense has painted as a jilted lover who was upset that the general wouldn't leave his wife. "After wasting millions of taxpayer dollars, the Army finally admitted what it's known for many months: General Sinclair is innocent of sexual assault. Two successive prosecutors agreed that these charges should be dropped, as did two successive staff judge advocates," Scheff said in a statement. He continued, "The government understood that if it allowed BG Sinclair's accuser to be cross-examined, she would be caught in a thick web of her own lies. It shouldn't have taken two years for them to come to this conclusion, but they were driven by politics rather than justice." Scheff concluded his remarks, saying that the "reputational and financial costs" Sinclair has suffered because of "false rape allegations" should be factored into his sentencing. The testimony of the general's accuser was never fully aired. She testified for several hours March 7, telling the court that the affair started with intimate exchanges and evolved into groping and demands for sex and oral sex, WTVD reported. She also said the general threatened to kill her and her family, the station reported. She was scheduled to continue her testimony March 10, but Col. James Pohl, the presiding judge in the court-martial, dismissed the jury after 22 pages of e-mails emerged that appear to point to alleged Pentagon interference in the case. At least one of the e-mails also seemed to indicate that a senior Army official felt the accuser had a credibility issue. While Pohl said there may have been "undue command influence" by Pentagon officials, he declined the defense team's request that he drop charges against Sinclair. Pohl instead ordered that the general be provided a possible plea deal. Sinclair's attorneys filed a Freedom of Information Act request for all Pentagon e-mail communication including keywords in the Sinclair case, identifying about 10,000 e-mails among a dozen senior Pentagon officials, defense spokesman Josh Zeitz said. The Pentagon was reviewing the communications and would likely release them slowly, Zeitz said Wednesday, but if the two sides reached a plea deal and something pivotal arose in those e-mails, the defense would file another motion to dismiss charges. Zeitz said last week that Sinclair would not plead guilty to sexual assault, threatening the accuser or her family or any charge that would land him on a sex-offender registry. The Sunday statement from the defense team said the plea deal nixed all three charges that would necessitate sex offender status for the general, as well as a charge of defrauding the government and a charge that alleged "Sinclair 'coerced and compelled' his accuser to remain in their three-year, consensual relationship." The 27-year Army veteran will instead agree that his failure to end the relationship resulted in his accuser's emotional discomfort and distress, as did his refusal to divorce his wife and marry his accuser, the defense statement said. The general will also plead guilty to mistreating his accuser, which the defense team noted is "an infraction unique to the Uniform Code of Military Justice." "We're left with a collection of lesser charges, most of which aren't criminal in the civilian world," Scheff said in his statement. "Sinclair has admitted to mistakes that are normally a matter between husbands and wives, or employees and HR departments. It's time to put this matter to rest." Sentencing will begin this week. While it's unclear what penalty Sinclair faces, the government has agreed to a "quantum" -- essentially a maximum-penalty cap that won't be revealed to Pohl, according to the defense. Pohl will hand down his sentence, and Sinclair will face the lesser of the two sentences -- either Pohl's or those laid out in the quantum.

(CNN) -- Wajeha al-Huwaider picked up her passport, got in a taxi, and headed from her home in eastern Saudi Arabia to the nearby island kingdom of Bahrain -- a 45-minute drive that many Saudis take to get away for the weekend. Wajeha al-Huwaider says women face too many controls in Saudi Arabia. Despite having a valid passport, Saudi authorities at the border sent al-Huwaider home. That's because in Saudi Arabia, a woman needs permission from her male guardian before she can leave the country. Al-Huwaider -- a vocal women's rights activist in Saudi Arabia -- knew before she left that she would be turned away at the border. Her attempted trip was simply to make a point about the Saudi guardianship system that she says "controls all aspects of women's lives." "Either you treat us like mature citizens or let us leave the country (permanently)," she told CNN. She's urging all Saudi women who are tired of "being oppressed" to go "to any border and try to cross it without permission from their male relative." She wants to end Saudi Arabia's strict guardianship laws in which women must get permission from their husband, father, or closest male relative before doing the most mundane of tasks -- including working outside the home, going to school, maintaining a bank account, or leaving the country for a weekend getaway. Saudi Arabia is conflicted when it comes to women's rights. Women are not allowed to vote or drive, but earlier this year Saudi King Abdullah appointed Nora al-Fayez as the kingdom's first female deputy minister of education as part of a massive Cabinet reshuffling. Many consider Abdullah to be a reformer and the move was hailed within Saudi Arabia as a great step forward for women's rights. But al-Huwaider sees it differently, claiming even a woman as powerful as al-Fayez "isn't really in control of her life." "If she wants to travel is not up to her, it's up to her male guardian," she said. Human Rights Watch has criticized the Saudi government for not living up to commitments it made to the United Nations Human Rights Council. HRW issued a report last year detailing the negative impact of the guardianship system on Saudi women. It said Saudi officials have asserted that such guardianship requirements do not exist. "The Saudi government is saying one thing to the Human Rights Council in Geneva but doing another thing inside the kingdom," said Sarah Leah Whitson, HRW's Middle East director. "It needs to stop requiring adult women to seek permission from men, not just pretend to stop it." Efforts to reach the Saudi government for comment were unsuccessful. HRW issued a report last year detailing the negative impact of the guardianship system on Saudi women. It said Saudi officials have asserted that such guardianship requirements do not exist. Last month, al-Huwaider tried three times to cross from Saudi Arabia into Bahrain on her own and without permission from a male guardian. She was turned back each time but she said she'll continue going to Saudi's land borders and its airports in an attempt to gain "her rights." She has even protested on the side of a major road, the King Fahd Causeway that connects Saudi Arabia to Bahrain. Al-Huwaider insists this campaign is different from previous ones she's been involved in. "It's not about just sending messages and petitions anymore," she said. "We're not going to send any letters to anyone. Saudi women have to find someone who will take them to an airport or a border and say that they don't approve of the system and that they want to leave." She said that her mission is more than just an act of civil disobedience. "Most of the people think I'm doing it just to allow women to travel without permission," says Al-Huwaider. "But I keep telling women that it's the whole system that needs to be changed."

A mobile DNA testing facility ensconced in an jury-rigged Winnebago has been cruising New York City of late, picking up street hails as if it were a taxi and offering on-the-spot DNA testing. The owner of the R.V. - or as he calls it, a mobile medical facility - says he caters to family cases like long-lost sisters. But Health Street doesn't really make any bones about who it's really pitching, cheekily emblazoning the question, 'Who's Your Daddy? on the vehicle's side. Scroll Down for Video . Who's Your Daddy?: Mobile facility is ensconced in a jury-rigged, blue-and-brown Winnebago that is cheekily emblazoned with the question, 'Who's Your Daddy?' on its side . The clinic started in . 2010 but was revamped two months ago. The facility, owned by Health Street, which was founded by Jared Rosenthal (pictured), caters to a variety of clients, including returning soldiers who want to confirm the paternity of newly-born babies . Indeed, the 28-foot brown-and-blue R.V. looks more like a mobile home than a medical facility, but the interior does provide the service it promises, starting at $299. 'It's just such a serious, fundamental question ... who are your children? Who are your parents?' Jared Rosenthal, the founder of Health Street, told Reuters. Rosenthal also drives the R.V., stopping much like a taxi cab for passersby who hail it on the street for impromptu paternity tests. One New Yorker, who declined to give his name discovered he was the dad of a long-lost daughter he had fathered with a woman he had dated some 20 years ago. The 44-year-old married father of two - make that now three - confirmed the paternity in July. 'This issue is still raw and very sensitive,' he said. 'I will get to . know my daughter ... this is something I'm taking one day at a time.' Inside the facility, technicians take DNA samples, which are then packaged and shipped off to an Ohio  laboratory. Results are returned three to five business days later. Mandatory prescriptions from a physician can be faxed via the Internet to waiting techs. Experts say there has been a steady . increase in demand for such tests in the U.S., reaching close to 500,000 . a year - in part to the uptick in  births to unmarried women. Rosenthal's mobile DNA-testing facility is ensconced in a brown-and-blue improvised Winnebago that makes no bones about its mission . Cruisin': Much like a taxi, the mobile DNA-testing unit will stop for street hails from passersby who want an on-the-spot DNA test to confirm paternity and whatnot . In 2010, at least 382,199 so-called 'relationship tests' were conducted in the U.S., although the total is likely much higher because some labs don't submit data, according to the AABB,, which accredits 'relationship testing' facilities. State child-support agencies make up the bulk of this demand, but experts said the number of people simply seeking answers has dramatically increased. 'It's just such a serious, fundamental question ... who are your children? Who are your parents?' 'The bigger question is what do we do with this information. Why are we looking for it and what do we think it means?' said Susan Crockin, a lawyer who teaches at Georgetown Law Center and specializes in reproductive technology. 'The underlying issues are obviously the quality of testing,' Crockin said. Typical Health Street customers include engaged men who want to confirm offspring from a past relationship, returning soldiers seeking reassurance they fathered newly-born children, and women inquiring about the paternity of their children. So far, Rosenthal said, two women learned they were half-sisters, and a man whose . suspicion that he might be the father of a friend's daughter was . confirmed. Inside the facility, technicians take DNA samples, which are then packaged and shipped off to an Ohio laboratory. Results are returned three to five business days later . However, the door is open to heartbreak, especially when men discover that somebody else fathered their children. 'If you're really happy with the children in your life, don't go near these things,' Bishai said David . Bishai, a professor at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public . Health. Rosenthal's experiment is by no means groundbreaking - it's fairly common, said experts, for DNA testing labs to offer mobile collection services. However, his mobile facility may be the first to splash the phrase, 'DNA TESTING' in bold red lettering on its side. Health experts advise customers to only use labs accredited by AABB or distributors who use those labs, but there are no regulations on the outfits themselves. It is also not illegal to run a DNA testing laboratory that is not AABB-certified.

HARARE, Zimbabwe (CNN) -- Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe published a draft constitutional amendment in the government gazette Saturday, paving the way for the power-sharing agreement reached after violence disrupted this year's presidential election. President Robert Mugabe, left, and opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai signed the deal in July. Constitutional Amendment 19 details the posts and institutions that were created by the power-sharing deal, including the position of prime minister intended for Morgan Tsvangirai, leader of the Movement for Democratic Change. The publication of the draft is the first step in creating a law in Zimbabwe. For the law to pass, it must be appear before parliament in 30 days, according to the country's constitution. If it is approved, it will be sent to Mugabe for his signature. The deal arose after Tsvangirai withdrew from a June 27 runoff days before the vote, saying Mugabe's supporters had waged a campaign of violence and intimidation against opposition supporters. The two leaders signed the initial agreement, brokered by former South African President Thabo Mbeki, in July but have failed to agree on how to form a cabinet. The MDC, the main opposition party, noted that Mugabe's latest move does not legalize the amendment. "Gazetting the bill -- which was done by [Mugabe's party] Zanu-PF -- does not automatically translate into passing it into law," MDC spokesman Nelson Chamisa said. "That can only take place if outstanding issues have been addressed. Otherwise we will not support the bill." The two parties agreed last month to the draft amendment during talks in South Africa, but Chamisa warned then that problems remained. "We have differed with Zanu-PF for a long time while the citizens suffer, but fortunately we have agreed on something. I need to hasten to mention that we still have some outstanding issues, such as the cabinet, appointment of diplomats," he said in late November. Zanu-PF lost its majority in the parliament in the March elections. As no party has the two-thirds majority to pass the law, its passage relies on MDC support. If parliament does not approve the amendment, Mugabe may call for new elections, Zimbabwe Justice Minister Patrick Chinamasa told state-run daily newspaper The Herald. "I envisage that it will require two weeks for it to be debated and passed through both Houses. If no support is forthcoming, it means that Amendment Number 19 Bill will be dead matter," Chinamasa is quoted as saying The Herald. "In the event that the collaboration that we envisage is not forthcoming, then that will necessitate fresh harmonized elections at some point in time," he said, according to The Herald. Tsvangirai won the most votes in the March election, but not enough to avoid a runoff, according to the government's official count. South African President Kgalema Motlanthe, chairman of the Southern African Development Community, welcomed the draft. "The gazetting of Amendment 19 of the Zimbabwean Constitution is indeed a major step towards the formation of an inclusive government in Zimbabwe," he said in a written statement. "We urge the Zimbabwean political parties to establish an inclusive government." Meanwhile, the country is battling a cholera outbreak that has killed nearly 800 people since August, according to the World Health Organization. More than 16,000 people have been infected, WHO said. This week, Mugabe declared that "there is no cholera in the country." His spokesman later said Mugabe was sarcastically ridiculing what he believes are Western designs to invade the country. Another Zimbabwean official, Information Minister Sikhanyiso Ndlovu, said Friday that the disease was a "calculated, racist attack on Zimbabwe by the unrepentant former colonial power, which has enlisted support from its American and Western allies so that they can invade the country." Britain ruled the country as a colony until 1965. Ndlovu's claims triggered quick and pointed reaction from Britain and the United States. In Washington, State Department spokesman Rob McInturff called Ndlovu's accusations "patently ridiculous."

(CNN) -- A man who for 20 years has lived near one of six men accused of sexually abusing young relatives said he finds the allegations "absolutely unbelievable." Bob Ramsey, a retired Graceland University chemistry professor and David Mohler's neighbor in Lamoni, Iowa, said he knows most of the Mohler family. Burrell Edward Mohler Sr., 77, and his sons Burrell Edward Mohler Jr., 53; David A. Mohler, 52; Jared Leroy Mohler, 48; and Roland Neil Mohler, 47, were arrested Tuesday on suspicion of sexually abusing children. A sixth family member, Darrel Wayne Mohler, 72, was arrested Friday as he pulled into the driveway of his Silver Springs, Florida home. Darrel Mohler, the younger brother of Burrell Edward Mohler Sr., is being held in jail in Marion County, Florida, charged with two counts of rape in a Missouri arrest warrant. The six alleged victims -- all now adults -- came to law enforcement authorities with stories of sexual performances, mock weddings, rape with various objects and a forced abortion during their childhoods, according to court documents obtained by CNN affiliate KSHB in Kansas City, Missouri. None of the accused in the case has entered a plea and it's unclear whether they have legal counsel. "David was one of the kindest people I know in this town," Ramsey said. "I find it absolutely unbelievable. That's my honest opinion." Ramsey said he and Burrell Edward Mohler Sr., 77, attended college together 50 years ago. Ramsey said he spent a lot of time with the family because his wife had taught piano to two family members. "They were in and out of our home quite a bit, and there was absolutely never any indication of abuse," he said. The employer of one of the suspects said, "Everybody is still in shock ... disbelief," as news of the arrests spread through communities where several of the suspects live in western Missouri. "He was a good medic," Corbin Allred said of Roland Mohler, who has been employed at Saline County Ambulance District No. 3 since 2006. Mohler has been suspended, Allred said, and further action may be taken at the next board meeting. Allred described Roland Mohler as outgoing and said, "He blends in with everybody else." Roland Mohler was on duty when Missouri State Highway Patrol officers arrested him, Allred said. Paramedic Sharon Roscher was also shocked about allegations that one of their own could be involved in something so horrific. "You eat, you sleep, you do everything with people for 48 hours," she said. "Oh my gosh, it's just a shock." Roland Mohler's father, Burrell Edward Mohler Sr., also worked for a time in emergency services as a firefighter in Independence, Missouri, the fire department confirmed. A spokesman would not comment further. Burrell Mohler Sr., David Mohler and Jared Mohler are lay ministers in the Community of Christ, the organization said. "Leaders and members of the Community of Christ in the greater Kansas City area are prayerfully upholding those families that are touched by the recent arrests of five members of the Mohler family," the statement said. Lay ministers are volunteers who do not receive compensation, and none of the three served in leadership roles or worked with children, according to the organization, which is based in Independence, Missouri. "We have a very strict code of ethics when it comes to the safety of our youth," said the organization's spokeswoman, Linda Booth. Burrell Mohler Sr. did go through the group's registered youth worker program, but "his youth worker registration has been terminated and we understand he had no contact with children or youth in church programs," the church said. Some lay ministers might help take care of the church, Booth said, while others might speak at services. "Immediately, I went to the rolls and had their priesthoods suspended because that's what we do in the Community of Christ when there's any word of something like this. We suspend their priesthoods," Booth said, referring to a church designation for male members. "If this goes to trial and they are convicted, then they will be what we call silenced, and they can no longer represent the church in any way," Booth said. The Community of Christ is an offshoot of the modern-day Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It split off from the Mormon church in the 1800s, and in 2000 changed its name to Community of Christ from the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. "I personally feel grief for these families, all the families that are involved in this," Booth said. "I feel concern for the congregations." She said she is also "concerned about the greater church, the Community of Christ who represents nations and communities based in love and peace and joy." CNN's Mallory Simon contributed to this report.
