Write a summary for this information. | The boxer from Sheffield is in a stable condition according to his promoters Matchroom. No arrests have been made.
A spokeswoman for Spain's Guardia Civil said the 28-year-old was stabbed in the left leg at Golf del Sur in San Miguel de Abona and "lost a lot of blood".
Brook won the IBF welterweight title when he beat American Shawn Porter in California last month.
It is the second time Brook has been stabbed, after an incident in Sheffield in 2007.
Brook's win over Porter stretched his unbeaten professional record to 33 fights and he is being lined up for a fight against Amir Khan next - expected to take place on 6 December.
His trainer Dominic Ingle told BBC Look North: "We've been through a lot together, me and Kell, and receiving the news this morning hit me in the pit of my stomach. It's a sickening feeling.
"I think he's stable, his mum and dad's gone out today to see him in hospital.
"He's a fighter Kell, we don't know the extent of his injuries but whichever way, knowing Kell, he'll try and make that date [in December] if he can."
The 28-year-old had been named in coach Joe Schmidt's 32-man squad for the three-Test tour last week.
Fitzgerald's misfortune could open the door for uncapped Connacht wing Matt Healy, who rounded off a terrific season with a fine display on Saturday.
Connacht full-back Tiernan O'Halloran is another option available to Schmidt.
A decision on Fitzgerald's replacement should be made in the next few days, with Healy the favourite to get the nod.
Ulster's in-form Craig Gilroy could also be in the running to join the squad,
The Leinster back joins a lengthy list of absentees for the tour which includes wings Simon Zebo and Tommy Bowe, and forwards Cian Healy, Denis Buckley, Nathan White, Sean O'Brien, Peter O'Mahony, Josh van der Flier and Andrew Conway.
Meanwhile South Africa have named hooker Adriaan Strauss as captain for the series.
New coach Allister Coetzee praised the 30-year-old's leadership skills in what is a new-look squad.
"Adriaan's leadership qualities are impressive and well-established and he has the respect of his team mates on and off the field," Coetzee said in a statement from SA Rugby.
Strauss will become the 57th Springboks captain, taking over from Jean de Villiers who retired after last year's Rugby World Cup.
The 30-year-old hooker has 54 international caps with the 'Boks and he served as vice-captain in 2012 and '13.
Ireland face the Springboks in the first Test in Cape Town on 11 June, with the sides meeting again over the following two weekends in Johannesburg and Port Elizabeth.

Can you summarize the following content in brief? | This new assessment comes from the Hubble Space Telescope, which has significantly refined the rate at which nearby galaxies are observed to be moving away from each other.
It reinforces the tension between what we see happening locally and what we would expect from the conditions that existed in the early cosmos.
These have implied a much more sedate trajectory for the recession.
Science now has a big job on its hands to try to resolve the conundrum, says Adam Riess from the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) and the Johns Hopkins University, both in Baltimore, Maryland, US.
"To be honest, with this latest measurement we've really gone beyond what we might call 'tension'; we're missing something in our understanding of the cosmos," the Nobel Laureate told BBC News.
The issue at hand is the so-called Hubble Constant - the value used by astronomers to describe the current expansion.
It is a critical number because it helps us gauge the size and age of the Universe.
One way to pin down this value is to measure the distance and velocities of a large number of stars in a good sample of galaxies.
In Dr Riess's new study, to be published shortly in The Astrophysical Journal, this was done with the aid of two classes of very predictable stars.
These are the cepheid variables - pulsating stars that puff up and deflate in a very regular fashion; and a group of exploding objects referred to as a Type 1a supernovae.
Both shine with a known power output, and so by comparing this quantity with their apparent brightness on the sky, it is possible to figure out their separation from Earth and thus, also, the distance to the galaxies that host them.
Some 2,400 cepheids in 19 nearby galaxies were used in the survey, and these helped calibrate roughly 300 Type 1a supernovae, whose particular properties enabled the team to probe a slightly deeper volume of space.
The work gives a number for the Hubble Constant of 73.24 kilometres per second per megaparsec (a megaparsec is 3.26 million light-years). Or put another way - the expansion increases by 73.24km/second for every 3.26 million light-years we look further out into space.
It means basically that the distance between cosmic objects will double in another 9.8 billion years.
This is the third iteration of the project led by Dr Riess and has an uncertainty of just 2.4%.
But there is another way to determine the constant, and that is to look at the expansion shortly after the Big Bang and to use what we know about the contents and the physics at work in the Universe to predict a modern value of the expansion.
This has been done using data acquired by the Planck space telescope, which earlier this decade made the most detailed ever observations of the oldest light in the Universe.
Its Hubble Constant value was 66.53km/s per megaparsec.
The disagreement with Dr Riess's number is more than just a minor inconvenience. When using the Hubble Constant to calculate the time from the Big Bang, the offset equates to a difference of a few hundred million years in the near-14-billion-year age of the Universe.
The STScI scientist says the resolution is likely to be found in a better understanding of the "dark" components of the cosmos.
These include the unseen matter in galaxies (dark matter), and the vacuum energy (dark energy) postulated to be driving an acceleration in the expansion.
The gap could also be plugged by the existence of another, but hitherto undetected, particle.
The often-hypothesised fourth type, or flavour, of neutrino would fit the bill.
"This would change the balance of energy in the Universe and it would speed it up," Dr Riess said.
Answers will surely come from the new space telescopes and particle detectors due to enter service in the next few years, he added.

Give a concise summary of the passage below. | Lord Kinnock said Mr Corbyn made a "strategic error" in not allowing a free vote on the Article 50 bill.
In total, 52 Labour MPs - eight from Wales - rebelled against the party.
New shadow Welsh secretary Christina Rees has said the party should be united behind Mr Corbyn.
Lord Kinnock said the Labour leader should be making "strong salient arguments" about safeguarding the wellbeing of British people.
Quizzed on how he felt Mr Corbyn was dealing with Brexit, the former MP for Islwyn told BBC Wales' Sunday Politics programme: "I don't think it's being handled actually.
"What potentially could have been a serious problem for the Conservative Party because of the deep divisions in that party over Europe... has actually turned, because of the rather ineffectual handling of the issue by the leadership of the Labour Party, into a series of difficulties for the Labour Party.
"I actually think that the Labour Leader made a strategic error in not saying there should be a free vote, so that MPs could reflect the vote in the areas that they represent, and then simultaneously have focused really hard on what the conditions for our departure are to be."
Lord Kinnock, who led Labour between 1983 and 1992, praised Mr Corbyn's appointment of Sir Keir Starmer as the party's Brexit spokesman.
But he said Labour's leader should be "making strong, salient arguments himself about the need to safeguard the wellbeing of the British people, particularly those who are economically least secure".
"If you are a leader that what's you've got to do. That's your job," said Lord Kinnock, who was also a European Commissioner for nearly a decade.
Ms Rees told the same programme: "As far as I'm concerned we should be behind the leader and supporting him in anyway we can, because that is the structure of the Labour party."
Lord Kinnock also told BBC Wales that he thought a final agreement on leaving the EU could take far longer than the two years envisaged, and that "10 years was not unrealistic".

Summarize the provided information. | The inquiry, led by barrister Clive Sheldon QC, was started by the Football Association in December after allegations from former players.
Sheldon wrote to every club in England and Wales in January.
The EFL said in a statement it was "very disappointed" to learn eight clubs had missed the 15 March deadline.
Those clubs, which have not been named, had been warned they could face sanctions.
"Having been made aware of the situation, the EFL immediately made contact with the relevant clubs and secured a response," said the statement.
"The EFL is satisfied that its clubs were not seeking to 'obstruct' the process but acknowledges that the failure to respond within the given time frames created unnecessary speculation and was unhelpful.
"All 72 clubs will once again be reminded that the EFL expects their full co-operation with the review."
The review is asking anyone involved with football who wishes to provide information about the way in which clubs or the FA dealt with concerns over child sex abuse between 1970 and 2005 to come forward.
Sheldon - an expert in safeguarding and child protection - has also written to all 65,000 affiliated clubs seeking assistance, and has begun meeting individuals who can contribute.
BBC Sport has learned that investigators have started searching 5,000 boxes of FA archives - each containing up to 1,000 pages.
A final report is not expected to be published until 2018.

What is the brief summary of the provided content? | It is illegal for anyone under 18 to get a tattoo, even with parental permission.
But an undercover investigation found 10 unlicensed tattooists through online forums who were willing to work on youngsters.
BBC London's Inside Out team secretly filmed three of them agreeing to 'ink' children.
After being turned down by a legitimate establishment, the natural choice for many children still determined to get a tattoo is to look on the internet.
Gail Cooper, who runs Steel Point parlour in Croydon, south London, said she has been inundated with requests, not only from those underage but also parents asking for tattoos for their children.
"It's probably about 10 a week now, which is double what it was three years ago," she said.
"The youngest I've dealt with was 12.
"Her dad wanted her tattooed and he got really angry when we wouldn't tattoo her.
"But he said he would go somewhere else, and I'm sure he did as well."
About 20% of British adults have had a tattoo, according to a You Gov survey in 2015
Ian Gray from the Chartered Institute for Environmental Health told BBC London he thinks the industry is open to abuse.
"I think there are many people making a good living out of damaging people and it's very wrong.
"Apart from the fact that you're probably having the procedure carried out by somebody who is not skilful, the big danger is that you've allowed the introduction of a blood borne virus into your body."
However some are calling for a complete rethink of the way the industry is regulated.
Professor Richard Griffith, a health policy expert at Swansea University, wants the current law to be scrapped entirely.
He said: "Young children, 14 and 15 year olds, who are deemed to be competent to make these decisions, who have sufficient maturity and intelligence, to decide whether or not to have a tattoo, under the regulated framework of a license tattoo artist, should also be allowed to have a tattoo, and benefit from the health protection that comes from having it from a licensed tattooist."

The collection belongs to the royal family of Monaco, which is selling the items as part of the restoration of their palace.
The hat has not been worn since it was given as a gift to Napoleon's veterinarian.
Napoleon was renowned for his bicorne hats, so-called because they had two points. Some 19 of his hats have survived. This bicorne, said to have been worn at the Battle of Marengo in Italy in 1800, is part of a collection assembled by Louis II of Monaco, described by his great-grandson Prince Albert as a great admirer of Napoleon.
A diamond-encrusted sword is part of the collection that the House of Grimaldi is selling in order to make space for a museum dedicated to Princess Grace, Albert's mother who died in 1982. The value of such a piece is unknown, but a gold sword sold in 2007 for 4.8m euros.
Another item is a damaged bronze flag eagle. Other exhibits are estimated to be worth only a few thousand euros, such as a rare scarf worn by the emperor, or a bronze bust. They have been on show next to the Palace of Fontainebleau, where Napoleon lived.
Two letters, handwritten by Napoleon himself, are also included. Art expert Jean-Claude Dey who sifted through the collection over the past 13 years, said all the items were "moving mementoes of the First Empire, mementoes of Napoleon, his close relations and friends, his marshals and generals".
Stockings and slippers belonging to Napoleon's son, Napoleon II, who was known as the Roi de Rome, are also up for auction. Other clothing is listed, such as a white shirt worn by Napoleon while in exile on St Helena and presented to a general who accompanied him to the remote South Atlantic island after the Battle of Waterloo in 1815.
Many of the delicate items are extraordinarily well preserved, such as these slippers, also belonging to Napoleon II. Sentimental items are also part of the collection, such as an embroidered purse that belonged to Josephine, valued at 2,000 euros. Although many of the items will be bought up by private collectors and museums, some pieces such as gunpowder flasks could be snapped up by the general public. | Tattooists working out of their homes are willing to work on children as young as 11, the BBC has found.

Two Peter Whittingham goals helped the Bluebirds keep their Championship play-off ambitions alive with a convincing display.
Cardiff, who appointed Slade in October 2014, are now seventh in the table, four points short of the play-offs.
"That was probably the best performance of my time in charge," he said.
"It would be up there certainly, but it wasn't too many weeks ago I was very happy with how we played at Wolves."
Cardiff's draw at Charlton the previous week was their 13th of the season, more than any other team in the Championship.
That was the Bluebirds' second successive goalless stalemate, and Slade was pleased with their improved finishing against automatic promotion contenders Brighton.
Cardiff led 3-0 within half an hour, and were never troubled.
"Sometimes you work hard and create chances, as in recent weeks, without the reward, but today our movement was good and our finishing was ruthless. It was good to see," he added.
"We can improve and we are improving, we have still got new partnerships out there on the pitch.

The Care Inspectorate said Peek-a-Boo Nursery was potentially putting children at risk.
The report said staff had insufficient knowledge of how to meet complex care needs, and a poor understanding of how to safeguard children.
A spokeswoman for Peek-a-Boo Nursery said it was urgently addressing all the concerns.
The inspectorate noted that staff seemed genuinely fond of the children in their care.
Seven of the 13 requirements related to the quality of management and leadership.
The unannounced inspection was carried out last month.
Peek-a-Boo Nursery said that the children in their care were their "sole priority".
A spokeswoman added: "We are grateful for the continued loyalty of staff, parents and the wider community, including other local nurseries, many of whom have offered support and good wishes during what has been a challenging time.
"We will honour that goodwill by providing the best care, development and standards of safety for the children who attend the nursery."
Matthew Harding, 27, from Oldbury in Wolverhampton, was struck by a grey Citroen Picasso at midday on Monday. An engineer colleague was also injured.
His wife of one week, Danielle, was at his side when he died in hospital on Tuesday. She described him as a "hero".
Two boys, both aged 16, were held on suspicion of dangerous driving.
The second engineer suffered a broken arm and jaw and a twisted ankle. He is expected to make a full recovery.
The crash happened while the two Virgin Media employees were working on roadside cabinet at the junction of Jack Holden Avenue and Robert Wynd in Woodcross.
Mrs Harding said: "We are well and truly heartbroken. I don't know how we're all going to go on.
"Our babies are devastated because daddy is gone. Our lives will never be the same."
Offering a tribute directed at her husband, Mrs Harding said: "There is no man out there who could or ever would be as amazing, caring and loving as you.

Summarize the passage below. | Work began on the Crescent in Buxton, Derbyshire, in 2003, with an initial completion date of 2007 now pushed back to 2019.
The budget to restore the Grade I 18th Century spa complex has also more than doubled to more than £50m.
The current Duke of Devonshire said once finished, the building will be the "jewel in the crown" of Buxton.
Developer Trevor Osborne said the project had faced rotten timbers and multiple protected springs.
The Crescent had stood empty since 1992 when Mr Osborne took it on, intending to convert it into a five-star hotel.
He said there had been huge problems - a lot of the building had rotted so it was being reinforced with steel and new timbers.
"I think when I agreed to take this project on I must have been young and foolish," he said.
"It was difficult to come up with designs which would safeguard the water.
"When I took the project on I was advised there were three springs - we found at least 23.
"We have had just about every difficulty you could have with a building project like this."

The huge budget leap has been borne by the lottery, development grants and Mr Osborne's own company.
"That hurts a bit, but long ago I ceased to think of this as a commercial venture," he said.
The current Duke of Devonshire, whose ancestor built the Crescent, said: "He and his wife had spent a lot of time in Bath and I think he tried to emulate that.
"I'm afraid when it was built by my ancestor, it was not built to a very high standard, so (the developers) have had to put that right.
"I think it will be the jewel in the crown, and that's some crown, Buxton's a really wonderful place. I think it'll put Buxton and Derbyshire even more on the map."
An event was held in the Crescent's Pump Room on 20 June to mark the joint launch of both the Buxton Crescent & Thermal Spa Heritage Trust and the Friends of the Crescent group to support the regeneration and the future of the building.

Ash Hunter latched on to David Ball's through ball to run one-on-one with James Shea but the goalkeeper pulled off a fine diving save to push the fierce strike to safety.
Ball just curled the ball round the left post from the dead-ball line while Bobby Grant's effort from 12 yards fizzed over the crossbar as Town ended the first half strongly.
It was a feistier second half and Wimbledon nearly took the lead against the run of play in the 72nd minute. A rare defensive mix-up from Cian Bolger and Ash Eastham saw the ball fall sweetly for Andy Barcham but his snap-shot flew over the bar.

Can you write a brief summary of this passage? | Police were called to a property in Bardowie Street at about 15:45 on Friday.
A 20-year-old man was found seriously injured and was taken to Glasgow Royal Infirmary where he later died.
Detectives are treating the death as suspicious. They are reviewing CCTV and carrying out door-to-door inquires. They have appealed for witnesses.
Det Insp Grant Durie, from Police Scotland's major investigation team, said: "At this time, I would ask for the assistance of the local community in determining what took place yesterday afternoon.
"It is possible that you heard or witnessed a disturbance on Bardowie Street and if so I would ask you to contact police immediately.
"Any information received will greatly assist us in determining how this young man lost his life."
He added: "I want to reassure local residents that we are doing all we can to find out what took place and determine how this man died.
"Additional officers are patrolling the areas of Bardowie Street and Saracen Street. I would ask local residents to also approach those officers should they have any information or wish to discuss their concerns."
The study identified the postcodes across the UK with the best work-life balance.
Factors considered included schools, access to green spaces, employment prospects, working hours, affordable housing and average commuting times.
Coming out top in NI was BT65 covering Craigavon, Enniskeen, Drumgor and Tullygally.
Another Craigavon postcode, BT64, also won the accolade in 2015.
The research was carried out for the Royal Mail by the Centre for Economic and Business Research (Cebr).
It analysed statistical data to reach its conclusions - researchers did not visit any of the areas and residents were not asked for their views.
The new town of Craigavon was created in County Armagh in the 1960s, with its design owing much to modernist architecture and town planning.
Its design has often drawn comparisons with Milton Keynes.
Grants were offered to encourage people to relocate to Craigavon from Belfast.
However, the town would later be criticised for being a "soulless" urban space notorious for its many roundabouts.
The two postcodes adjacent to BT65 finished in the top five of the Royal Mail study - with BT64 (Craigavon-Lurgan) finishing third and BT66 (Lurgan) coming in at fourth.
Rounding out the top five ion Northern Ireland were BT16, Dundonald, in second place and BT10, Finaghy in south Belfast, in fifth.
Olga Murtagh, strategic director at Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council, said: "We are delighted to hear that three out of the top five places to live in Northern Ireland are in the Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough.
"Craigavon residents are very well served by roads and infrastructure, an exceptional network of pedestrian and cycle routes, access to retail, entertainment and a quality mix of urban and rural spaces that are welcoming to all.
"All of this is in addition to a wide range of services and facilities on their doorstep including an acute hospital, quality education and diverse leisure provision.
"Craigavon's 'New Town' success - both as a residential area and as a base for industry - is down to the visionary planners who designed the area 52 years ago, and there is still scope to improve the form and function of this urban area through regeneration." | A man has died after being seriously injured in a disturbance in the Possilpark area of Glasgow.

"Due to one of the most astonishingly intelligent and professional pieces of strategy by the fire services, they succeeded in protecting the vast majority of the building, apparently by forming a human wall of firefighters up the west end of the main staircase and containing the fire."
She added: "Also, after ensuring no lives were in peril, they displayed an impressive understanding of the precious nature of the building, and due to their careful and meticulous handling of each developing situation the damage is considerably less than we dreaded.
"We have run out of words with which to thank them, but the school has most certainly gained a new gallery of heroes."
Ms Gray, who had burst into tears when she saw the building on fire, also confirmed that many students had lost some, or all, of their work, but other work had been preserved.
She said curators and academic staff were hoping to be allowed into the building in the next few days to assess what could be salvaged.
"The joy that our archives are safe combines with the delight in seeing most of our beloved building bruised and battered, but most certainly not destroyed," she added.
Speaking about the loss of the library, Ms Gray said: "Mackintosh was not famous for working in precious materials. It was his vision that was precious and we are confident that we can recreate what was lost as faithfully as possible.
"Our main concern right now is the welfare of the students and the impending graduation and everyone is working hard together to achieve the best outcome for all."
The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service said more than 90% of the structure was viable and they had protected up to 70% of the contents.
The fire service has yet to confirm the cause of the blaze, which some students have suggested could have started in the basement when a spark from a projector caught a piece of foam.
The UK government has said it would make a significant contribution towards the costs of restoring the building.
Chief Secretary to the Treasury Danny Alexander said it would contribute "in the millions, if necessary" to restore a "priceless gem".
Mr Alexander, who was visiting the site on Saturday afternoon, said: "We've seen the appalling damage to the Glasgow School of Art. It's a hugely important building not just for Glasgow and Scotland but for the whole of the United Kingdom.
"The UK government will be willing to make a significant financial contribution towards the cost of rebuilding.
"Obviously at the moment we don't know the precise extent of the damage or what the costs will be, so I can't put a figure on it, but the chancellor and I have spoken this morning and we both think it is appropriate."
He added: "This is going to be a costly business but it's a very important landmark for the whole of the UK so we stand ready to provide an appropriate share of the funds that will be necessary to bring this hugely important building back to life."
Culture Secretary Fiona Hyslop, who also visited the site, said , Ms Hyslop said: "It was truly heartbreaking to see the Mackintosh Building in flames.
"We are all thankful that no-one has been hurt and for the heroic efforts of firefighters to safely evacuate the site and save the building and as much as possible of the work it contains.
"I know from speaking to Professor Tom Inns [director] that GSA is determined that the school will recover, and rebuild and renew the Mackintosh building and what it stands for.
"He can count on support from friends of the GSA in Scotland and around the world, including the Scottish government.
"We have already invested heavily in the School in recent years, contributing around £55m to the new Reid building and to conservation of the Mackintosh building.
"We know the restoration will run into millions of pounds, and we are committed to strongly supporting the funding effort required."
She added that the Scottish Cabinet would discuss the issue on Tuesday and would then make an announcement on the restoration plans."
An ecumenical church service was held at Renfield St Stephens in Bath Street for those affected by the fire.
Fire broke out at the listed building at about 12:30 on Friday.
Eyewitnesses said the fire appeared to have started when a projector exploded in the basement of the building on Renfrew Street in the city centre.
Everyone who had been in the packed building was said to have escaped safely.
Final year students had been preparing for their end-of-year degree show in the building when the blaze broke out.
The main fire was extinguished by about 17:00.
The Mackintosh building, completed in 1909, is "unique" in that it is a working art school as well as a work of art.
It has an A list rating, meaning it has been classified by Historic Scotland for its age and rarity.
From the facade to the fixtures and fittings every detail shows the craft of Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Scotland's most-lauded designer.
In a statement issued at 21:30, Assistant Chief Officer Dave Boyle said crews had been working "absolutely flat out" in an effort to save "this treasured building and many of the items it housed".
He said: "While the priority from the outset was to save life we have also been working closely with Glasgow School of Art staff to ensure firefighters conducted an effective salvage operation.
"We are of course very conscious the Mackintosh is a world-renowned building that is a key feature of this great city, and that the artworks it stores are not only valuable but also cherished."
ACO Boyle added: "We are acutely aware this period is the culmination of years of endeavour for students and that their irreplaceable work is inside the Mackintosh.
"Work to save everything that can be saved is ongoing and we will continue to work closely with GSA staff and students throughout this operation."
Fire crews arrived on the scene within four minutes of the alarm being raised.
Search and rescue teams led a number of people to safety. There were no reports of any casualties.
Police cordoned off Renfrew Street, and smoke was also drifting across the M8. Large crowds of students and onlookers gathered near the scene, with several people in tears as they watched the events unfold.
Austin Yuill, who works as a chef at the art school, told the BBC: "I'm told it started in the basement and it's worked its way all the way up through the five floors.
"As far as I know it started from a spark which has gone on to foam, expanding foam."
Charles Rennie Mackintosh is lauded as Scotland's most influential architect and designer, with the art school building which bears his name considered by many to be his greatest masterpiece.
Mackintosh was a 28-year-old junior draughtsman at a Glasgow architecture firm when he drew up the designs for the building, which features distinctive heavy sandstone walls and large windows.
The dramatic art nouveau design took about 12 years to be completed, opening in 1909, but it signalled the birth of a new style in 20th Century European architecture.
The president of the Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland, Iain Connelly, said the value of the building "goes well beyond Glasgow or even Scotland".
In recent years, Glasgow School of Art has produced many of the UK's leading contemporary artists such as Douglas Gordon and David Shrigley and three recent Turner Prize winners: Simon Starling in 2005, Richard Wright in 2009 and Martin Boyce in 2011.
Other former students include actors Robbie Coltrane and Peter Capaldi and artist Peter Howson. | The iconic library at Glasgow School of Art has been lost in the fire which swept through the Charles Rennie Mackintosh building on Friday. |
Please give a summary of the document below. | Metropolitan Police counter-terrorism officers say they are now connecting the two attacks based on evidence.
The Bardo Museum attack saw 22 people killed, while 38 tourists, including 30 British nationals, were killed in the resort of Sousse in June.
The militant group Islamic State (IS) have said they are behind both attacks.
Tunisian authorities have arrested 150 people to date over the Sousse attack.
Of those, 15 have been charged with terrorism offences.
Those charged face allegations including being involved in a terrorist plot, not informing police of a plan and providing logistical or other support.
A trial in relation to the murders is not expected to take place for up to 18 months.
Commander Richard Walton, of the Metropolitan Police, which supplied officers to help the Tunisian investigation into the massacre, gave no details of the suspected connection between the attacks but said it was based on "strong" evidence.
Tunisian authorities have also drawn a connection between the attacks, saying that the Sousse attacker likely trained at the same Libyan jihadi camp as the two Bardo attackers.
In Sousse a gunman, who was later identified as Tunisian student Seifeddine Rezgui, opened fire on the beach after coming in from the sea using a jet ski or speedboat.
After shooting on the beach, he entered the Hotel Imperial Marhaba, where explosives were detonated and more tourists were shot. Rezgui then ran out of the hotel and police shot him dead.
Tunisian authorities believe the 23-year-old's suspected accomplices provided a Kalashnikov assault rifle and helped Rezgui get to the scene, interior ministry spokesman Mohamed Ali Aroui told AP.
Mr Walton also disclosed that Rezgui's body has not been claimed due to the shame his family feel and fear of reprisals if they do so.
In Tunis - Rana Jawad, BBC North Africa correspondent
The announcement by the Metropolitan Police's counter-terrorism unit is not surprising, but it provides some credence to what has so far remained cryptic rhetoric from Tunisian officials.
Less than a week after Saifeddine Rezqui's rampage in Sousse, authorities here said the gunman had "likely" trained in Libya at the same time as the Bardo Museum assailants.
How and why they reached that conclusion was unclear.
By mid-July security services here had arrested more than 100 people they describe as being "suspected members of terrorist gangs" - in the majority of these cases, it's unknown what happens to these detainees or what "gangs" they belong to.
The Bardo Museum in Tunis was stormed by three gunmen on 18 March. British, Japanese, French, Italian and Colombian tourists were among the 22 they killed.
Witnesses said the gunmen, carrying assault rifles, opened fire on tourists outside the museum in front of a row of buses before charging inside and taking hostages.
Two of the gunmen - identified by the authorities as Yassine Laabidi and Hatem Khachnaoui - were killed by security forces.
Nine people have now been arrested in connection with the museum attack. | There are "strong" links between June's Tunisia beach massacre and the killings at the Bardo Museum in the country's capital in March, British police say. |

The West Mercia and Warwickshire forces handed over all weapons seized over the last two years.
They will be used to build a sculpture of an angel, with each knife forming a feather in its wings.
The British Ironworks Centre plans to find 100,000 knives to complete the statue, expected to stand 20ft high.
Sculptor Alfie Bradley said he hoped it would be completed by the autumn.
In all, some 10,000 weapons have been donated so far.
"There's no uniformity, so it's going to be a complete collage of knives," Clive Knowles, managing director of the British Ironworks Centre, said.
"There are a lot of what were clearly originally kitchen knives, but there have also been flick knives, razor-type knives, garrotting wires, homemade knives and ones made in prison from door bolts.
"One flick knife was disguised as a lighter and another two were designed to fit inside a fake mobile phone.
"I think you're going to look at the sculpture and realise how many knives there are on the streets of the UK. That's going to be the really shocking thing."

Please provide a concise summary of the following section. | Jenni Morton-Humphreys, from Bristol, found her bike on social media. She met and tricked the culprit to get it back.
She said: "I cycled on the pavement, fell off a couple of times, then I saw a corner, took it and cycled as fast as I could and didn't look back."
Police say such actions gives suspects a head start in destroying evidence.
An Avon and Somerset police spokesman said: "We'd advise against people taking matters into their own hands due the risks involved and the fact it provides criminals with an opportunity to destroy evidence before we can investigate them.
"In this case we've carried out a full investigation into the theft of the bike and have kept in regular contact with the victim throughout.
"We have exhausted all current possible lines of enquiry pending new information."
The £800 Cube bike was stolen about six weeks ago from a bike rack at the Harbourside in Bristol.
As soon as Ms Morton-Humphreys realised it had gone, she posted photos of her bike on a Bristol Cycling Facebook appealing for its return.
Within two hours a member of the Facebook group saw it advertised for sale for £100.
He then remained in touch with the seller, saying his 'sister' wanted it and arranged for them to meet the following day.
Ms Morton-Humphreys took a friend who remained close by for safety during the sting.
She said: "I made sure I didn't have any other possessions on me in case they said 'why don't you give us your phone, or give us your money or bank card' or something.
"If I just gave them some keys and cigarettes they would think I would come back.
"In fact it was two keys to the bike locks that they had cut off my bike."
After cycling away, her friend told her the seller "just stood there looking confused".

Summarize the following content briefly. | Some operators say they need more ships for 2018 just to cope with demand - so why has this type of holiday become so popular?
Janet and Tom Doyle, both aged 59, from Runcorn, in Cheshire, recently took their first cruise holiday as a family, with sons Jason, 21 and Christopher, eight.
"Tom never wanted to do a cruise," said Mrs Doyle. "But last year we went to Florida with the kids for three weeks and there was so much driving."
"I thought I would feel like a captive audience," said Mr Doyle. "I thought I would end up stuck on board but didn't realise the facilities modern cruise ships have."
In April, new cruise ship the Majestic Princess, which will be based in Shanghai, set sail. The Doyles were among a number of families on board its inaugural cruise from Rome.
"There was a lovely mix of ages on the Majestic and in the kids' club Chris was talking to a boy from Beijing. He'd been learning about China at school so it was great for him," Mr Doyle said.
"There's a perception the people on board are 10 years older than us but I saw several big groups of people in their late 20s," he added.
"The world's getting smaller - who'd have thought 20 years ago, a normal, working-class man like me could afford to do this?"

There are several reasons that have come together and caused this changing market.
You have a vast choice of ships which appeal to family groups, as well as millennials. I've just been on a two-day cruise to France and I've never seen such a young demographic. There were hen parties, 40th birthday groups, multi-generational and small family groups.
There's also a growth in theme cruising. Anchored, a ship-based dance festival, took place in June and was headlined by Tinie Tempah. These are common currency in the US - from Star Trek to music themes - but are just starting to really take off here.
Cruises are good value. If you're a family, the kids' clubs are included, as is all your food and entertainment. The childcare really is of a high standard and ships are so safe.
And cruise lines have made massive strides in technology and internet connectivity, which appeal to a younger demographic. Ships have made their wi-fi cheaper and quicker as they've realised people want to post on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter. It's all about the experience.
Two 20-somethings on board the Majestic were Sophie Ortyl, 28 and her boyfriend, 25-year-old Joe Campey, both from Crawley in Sussex.
"This was my 11th cruise," Ms Ortyl said proudly.
"My nan paid for the whole family to go on a cruise when I was 16, for her wedding anniversary, and I thought it would be all old people. But there was so much going on, the people were fun and the food and drinks were amazing."
Now hooked on cruising, Ms Ortyl has done four maiden voyages and has booked to go on Royal Caribbean's new ship, Symphony of the Seas, next year with her boyfriend.
"The food on the ships is amazing, the best food I've had. If I hadn't have met Sophie, I'd never have done a cruise," said Mr Campey.
Certainly it's a type of break that some holidaymakers would never consider; suspicious about the company they'd be forced to keep and unwilling to sacrifice the freedom to make their own itinerary.
Some might also cite the risk of mass outbreaks of sickness and diarrhoea as a major concern. In the past, cruise companies have paid out thousands in compensation to passengers whose holidays were ruined.
Others have ethical concerns about the poor pay and conditions some crew members face, most working long hours, with their take-home pay dependent on commission or tips.
Keeping it all shipshape - Francesca Maglione, on board events manager for MSC Meraviglia
"Every day is a great surprise for me. I start early and the day can take many unexpected turns. I organise all of the events that take place on board... parties, meetings, conferences, weddings, proposals, anniversaries and much more.
"I'm an organisational madwoman, as you'd expect, and without a doubt my highlighters, coloured pens and markers are among my prized possessions!
"The best part of this job on board is that you are working as part of a team, which often feels more like family, with a mix of colleagues of many nationalities.
"My most memorable couple so far was from Portugal. The ceremony was a surprise for the bride and was very romantic. I felt proud we had a chance to share this together so by the end of the ceremony all of us were crying, officers included.
"[It can be hard] when I reach the end of my emotional reserves after a long day but thanks to my experience, I know how to manage this."
Of course would be misleading to say cruise ships are packed full of under 25s and family groups - the average age of a cruise passenger is 55 - but companies are working hard to expand into these markets.
With many UK schools breaking up for the holidays, cruise operators are looking at record numbers of families on board.
Princess Cruises, part of the US-owned Carnival group, is open about its plans to attract more families with a complete overhaul of its kids' clubs and a partnership with the Discovery Channel.
On and off its ships there are further options for families including tailored shore excursions for parents and children, onboard sports and activities such as kids' dance classes, and family movie nights via its top-deck cinema screen.
As a result, Princess has reported a drop in the age of its guests. Next summer there will be almost twice as many UK under 18s on its main Southampton-based ship than there were two years ago. And the number of 35-44 year olds - many of them parents - has doubled.
Tony Roberts, Princess Cruises' vice president UK and Europe, said: "Our core guest is still over 50 and we would never shy away from ensuring we cater for that audience.
"But families and younger guests are unquestionably an ever-growing market for us."
Kids-eye view
Edie and Eloise, eight-year-old twins from landlocked Nottinghamshire, were on the Majestic Princess' inaugural cruise - also their first - from Rome.
"We loved the ice cream and the swimming pools. And the shows were really, really good, especially the Unexpected Boys and the Beatlemaniacs.
"We dressed up for dinner every night and had our own kids' menu - we could have a special pudding and if you didn't like it, you could have a different one.
"Kids' club was brilliant. On the last night, we didn't go to the restaurant with mummy and babcia (grandma) because we had a pyjama party and wanted to play. And the helpers were all very kind."
In the growing market of family cruises, Royal Caribbean has established a firm foothold. Last year saw the company launch the biggest passenger ship in the world - Harmony of the Seas - equipped with the Ultimate Abyss - a slide that drops 10 decks - zip wires, 18 restaurants and 32 bars.
"The average age of our passengers is 49," said Ben Bouldin, managing director UK & Ireland, for Royal Caribbean.
"By the nature of our ships and our innovation, we lend ourselves to a younger, more family-driven market.
"We're not only focused on kids though, as they can only really go in school holidays, and we've got lots of other demographic groups who travel at different times," he added.
How much ice cream? Harmony of the Seas in numbers
"The biggest challenge we have is dispelling what many people think cruising is about. There are about 1.7 million people in the UK who cruise, yet there are 40 million holidaymakers a year.
"We're really competing against land-based holidays to get more customers.
"Due to macro-political and economic issues in certain areas of Europe, some places aren't as accessible as they were, prices are being driven up and cruising is much better value."
John and Trish Smith, both 50 and from Horwich in Lancashire, have been on dozens of cruises.
The couple - John a custody sergeant and Trish who works as a local council safeguarding administrator - used to go a static caravan park in France for all their holidays. But when they took their first cruise with P&O in 2001, with a group of 38 friends and family, they were hooked.
"We've got four kids and didn't think we could afford a cruise," said Trish. "But we found a good deal, with a four-berth cabin, and never looked back. It was cheaper than going on an all-inclusive package holiday."
The pair have travelled all over the world on cruise ships, their latest a trip around the Med - this time without the children.
Mr Smith said: "We've just sold our touring caravan but we love both types of holiday. What's so good about this is you don't have to pack and unpack and get to see lots of different places.
"On the first cruise we were on, there were some lads fighting in the nightclub and they got turfed off at the next stop. There was also a couple in their 80s who got sent off because they'd been stealing cutlery and stashing it in their cabin."
Mrs Smith added: "We've been on cruises with a man overboard, been through a really bad storm and experienced a medical emergency where a woman needed a blood transfusion and loads of people came forward to help.
"There's a preconception that cruising is stiff and starchy but it's not like that any more. You've just got to do your research and find the cruise that's right for you - there really is one for everybody." | The average age of cruise passengers overall has fallen to its lowest in 20 years, and a record 1.7 million UK holidaymakers opted to take to the seas in 2016, according to the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA). |

Amazon regularly displays customised static ads on third-party sites, but the videos have the potential to be more eye-catching and appear in more places.
One expert said the idea had potential but Amazon would have to be careful that its ads did not seem creepy.
"This is something we've only experimented with at very small scales," Graeme Smith, managing director Amazon's software development centre in Edinburgh, told the BBC.
"They have been out there in the wild.
"I'm not able to share any more details of where, but potentially anywhere you can see a video is potentially somewhere you could consider running personalised video ads, right across the internet.
"It's still very early days for this technology, but it's something we are really excited about with a lot of applications."
Mr Smith showed off one of the ad designs at a press conference in London.
But the company declined the BBC's request to show the footage, saying it was still in a testing phase, so too early to share widely.
Video ads have long been targeted at users on services such as YouTube and Facebook via cookies and other means that track their identities.
But rather than just directing pre-made clips at targeted audiences, Amazon aims to make its adverts more effective by creating them on the fly, tailored to each user's interests.
It is able to do this by using graphics templates, whose elements are superimposed with images and text selected by the company's algorithms.
It is not uncommon for commercials to be created using such motion graphics templates.
But they normally require a human to arrange and edit their parts using specialised software - a time-consuming and potentially expensive activity.
"Video has always been an incredibly effective way of advertising," said Maisie McCabe, acting UK editor of Campaign.
"Technology is now enabling brands such as Amazon to combine the power of video with the precision of targeted online ads.
"However, this must be done sensitively and openly.
"Brands must be careful not to scare off potential customers by abusing the trust people place on them when they allow companies to track their data.
"Moreover, there's a big difference between what people expect from a static display ad and online video.
"Amazon will need to make sure its personalised videos are more engaging than the functional shopping ones they serve at the moment."
Although the idea of dynamic video ads is new to Amazon, other brands have teamed up with digital marketing companies to explore the idea.
For example:
Perhaps most prominently of all, Facebook has created a variety of personalised videos based on images and posts its members' have uploaded to its service, which it shows from time to time to help keep users loyal.
More than 300 people aged under 25 are diagnosed with the disease in Scotland every year.
Dr Catherine Calderwood said she wanted to ensure that children were seen by "the right experts in the right place".
She added that they should be able to access to "after care" services close to their family home.
Speaking to BBC Radio Scotland, Dr Calderwood said: "We want children to be seen by the right experts in the right place and we want them then to have opportunities as far as possible to participate in cancer clinical trials.
"Those are often the way that we can develop our medicines for cancer but also it often gives an opportunity for trial of new treatments for children.
"So we want as many children to be seen where the expertise lies but also to be treated by an expert team."
She said that approximately 150 children a year were diagnosed with cancer in Scotland.
About 180 young people aged 16-25 receive similar diagnoses.
She added: "The plan will also have children being able to be cared for, for their after care, closer to their own homes.
"So it doesn't mean children moving and having to stay away from family and friends and their usual activities."
The move has been supported by Cancer Research UK.
Spokesman Gregor McNie said: "We all know that the support networks and the holistic needs of someone who's ill with any disease are always best served close to home.
"So what this strategy tries to do is strike the balance of getting the specialist care from the very best at what they do but the wider care being as close to home as possible." | Amazon has revealed it is experimenting with personalised video adverts.

The company has reduced its total workforce by more than 31,000 since mid-2012.
Caterpillar warned there could be a "total possible workforce reduction of more than 10,000 people" and said it expected to close some 20 manufacturing facilities over the next three years.
Mr Oberhelman said: "While we've already made substantial adjustments as these market conditions have emerged, we are taking even more decisive actions now.
"We don't make these decisions lightly, but I'm confident these additional steps will better position Caterpillar to deliver solid results when demand improves." | Caterpillar, the US maker of construction and mining equipment, has said it could cut its workforce by more than 10,000 by 2018. |
What is the summary of the provided article? | Nearly 700 people have been asked to join the Academy after a race row.
"It's always amazing to me that it's taken this long for all of us to realise we should all be represented in film and television," she said.
"There's a planet full of people that aren't white heterosexual. There's a lot of people of colour, fat people, people that aren't absolutely perfect.
"Hollywood's always always celebrated beauty and perfection and that's great, who doesn't want to look at beauty and perfection? But we also need to represent everybody on the planet," said the actress and presenter, who voices the lead character in Pixar animation Finding Dory.
DeGeneres - who married her partner Portia Di Rossi in 2008 in California after same-sex marriage became legal there - has previously hosted the Oscars twice.
A selfie she took while presenting the 2014 ceremony became the most retweeted photo of all time.
DeGeneres, who is gearing up for the UK release of Finding Dory, joked about the selfie, saying: "Nothing will beat it, ever. Maybe I'll aspire to beat it myself."
Finding Dory - the sequel to Finding Nemo - has been a huge success in the US, where it has become the highest-grossing animated film of all time.
But its success is unlikely to translate into significant Oscars glory - the best picture award has never been won by an animated film, something DeGeneres says she thinks is a shame.
"You obviously relate more when you see a person and a face, and maybe that's what the Academy Awards have been about," the 58-year-old said.
"But the performances in animated movies are challenging for us [voice actors] because we're getting emotions across strictly through our voices.
"We need to get comedic timing, sadness, emotion, all through our voice without the benefit of body language or facial expressions. So it's as much of a challenge, if not a tiny bit more."
If there was one phrase that stuck in the mind from 2003's Finding Nemo, it was Dory's motto "just keep swimming" - in other words, stay strong in the face of uncertainty.
With the sequel finally about to arrive in UK cinemas 13 years later - what message will a whole new generation of children take from the second instalment of the franchise?
"Just keep swimming is always a good motto no matter what, but this time around the most important one for me is that your disability, your supposed disability, is your strength," DeGeneres said.
The disability she refers to is Dory's short term memory loss, which causes her to instantly forget names and faces.
In Finding Dory, however, the blue tang fish begins to get flashbacks of her parents, whom she lost when she was young, which leads to her quest to find them.
"You should look at whatever makes you different as what makes you special," DeGeneres said of Dory's memory loss.
"We need to embrace who we are. So I think that's a good message. People ask 'what would Dory do?' and it's because of her disability that people ask that, because she doesn't worry about the past, think about the future or analyse everything.
"She's just in the present moment, which is something we should aspire to."
During DeGeneres's UK visit, the political landscape changed dramatically as Theresa May became prime minister - the second woman in the UK to do so - something DeGeneres says sends out a positive message.
The comedian and talk show host has campaigned for the democratic candidate Hillary Clinton in the US ahead of the November presidential election.
"There should be representatives for everybody, so, of course, it's a great thing for young girls to look at, and also for young boys so they respect women more," she said.
"And I think what a woman brings to the job is a sensibility of growing up as a woman, knowing the things we have to fight against, which is stereotypes or double standards or whatever - so if a woman is in office she's probably going to fight more for women's rights because she understands more.
"So there's something to be said for that gender being in office rather than a man, but it's really about the person that's most qualified for the job, I think."
After her London visit, DeGeneres returned to the US to continue hosting her massively popular talk show Ellen, which attracts not only a high number of viewers, but also a strong online following.
Clips from the show are uploaded to its official Facebook page, and an official platform - Ellentube - has even been set up primarily to host material from the programme.
"That's how a lot of people are watching my show. A lot of people that don't own a TV will watch a clip or something," DeGeneres said.
"That's why we created Ellentube, and we're working so hard on our digital network because we know that is the future and that's where people are going to watch everything."
With her TV show still going strong, it may be a while before DeGeneres returns to the big screen. But when she does, there's another of her films which she joked could be in line for a second instalment.
"I think Mr Wrong, my very first film which was a horrible flop, that should have a sequel," she laughed.

Can you summarize the following information? | Taylor, who last won the title in 2013, edged a tense see-saw match 5-3 despite losing three successive sets.
The 54-year-old said: "It felt more like survival than a victory but I'm through and that is all that matters."
Dutchman Van Barneveld trailed BDO world champion Stephen Bunting 3-2 but fought back to win 5-4.
The five-time champion broke Bunting's resistance with a 107 checkout to take a tense seventh set and followed it up with a 113 checkout against the darts at the start of the last set.
In the earlier contest, Taylor was far from his best, averaging 100.08 with just a 40% success rate with doubles, but was fortunate that Dutchman Van der Voort struggled with a back injury.
The turning point came in the sixth set when Taylor, trailing 3-2, won the decisive leg despite taking 8 darts to hit a double.
Of 1,000 parents questioned by Drinkaware, more than half said they would provide five or more bottles of wine or spirits for a week.
The charity is tackling alcohol misuse in the Cornish resort of Newquay this summer with local council and police.
Two students died in the town last year after falling from cliffs.
As part of the Newquay Safe initiative, teenagers arriving in the town are being met with police and sniffer-dogs.
Any alcohol found on under-18s will be confiscated.
The 'Got Your Back' campaign encourages friends to look out for each other and think about the short-term risks of excessive alcohol consumption.
In the survey, 36% of parents said they would prefer their child to get alcohol from them rather than an unknown source, while 22% admitted they buy their teenager alcohol to keep track of the amount they drink.
Chris Sorek, chief executive of Drinkaware, said buying alcohol could inadvertently be putting their children at risk.
"Lots of 16 and 17-year-olds will want to mark the end of exams by celebrating with friends on a trip away," he said.
"Parents might think they're doing the right thing by ensuring alcohol comes from them instead of somewhere else, but when young people drink to excess it can compromise their personal safety."
Mr Sorek said it could also increase the chances of teenagers having unprotected sex or being involved in an accident.
He added: "To help their children stay safe, parents should avoid giving them alcohol for unsupervised holidays and talk to them about possible risks."
With thousands of teenagers set to arrive in Newquay after their exams finish, Drinkaware is taking over a cafe on Fistral Beach to create an alcohol-free venue where friends can meet and eat specially discounted food while having access to facts and information about alcohol.
On Monday, Cornwall Coroner Emma Carlyon recorded an open verdict at the inquest of Paddy Higgins.
The 16-year-old, from Winnersh, Berkshire, fell from cliffs in Newquay on 6 July last year.
The inquest in Truro was told tests showed the teenager was three times over the legal drink-drive limit.
Mr Sorek said: "We want to remind young people that you don't need alcohol to celebrate and that drinking too much can be risky." | Sixteen-time champion Phil Taylor beat Vincent van der Voort to set up a PDC World Championship semi-final with Raymond van Barneveld.

Please give a summary of the document below. | The Belfast side met French club Clermont in the 2011/12 competition with Ulster winning at Ravenhill before losing the return game.
Leinster will take on Montpellier, Northampton and Castres while Munster face Racing 92, Glasgow and Leicester.
Pro12 champions Connacht go up against Wasps, Toulouse and Zebre.
Ulster have been handed tough pools in recent years and director of rugby Les Kiss believes it will another battle to make the quarter-finals.
"It is a difficult pool, for sure. But we were expecting that because it's a really tough competition," he said.
"The three teams will pose great challenges but it's something we're excited about.
"All teams in the pool like to play an attractive brand of rugby, so it should be good to watch from a supporter's perspective as well."
The draw will mean a return to Ulster for Exeter Chiefs captain Gareth Steenson and Ian Whitten, who earned 63 caps for the province between 2008 and 2012.
Exeter, coached by Rob Baxter, have been one of the success stories of European rugby in recent years and enjoyed a remarkable season in 2015/16, reaching the quarter-finals of the Champions Cup and the final of the English Premiership.

Summarize the provided information. | Urgent action is needed to stop the Balearic shearwater being drowned in fishing lines and nets, say scientists.
The bird breeds in the Balearic Islands, sometimes stopping off in British waters as it migrates north.
Research shows the global population is not sustainable in the long term. There are about 3,000 breeding pairs left.
The main threat to the bird is becoming entangled in fishing gear, according to findings published in the Journal of Applied Ecology.
Other risks include hunting by the likes of cats and other small mammals.
Prof Tim Guilford of the Department of Zoology at the University of Oxford is co-researcher on the study.
He told BBC News: "The survival of adults from one year to the next and especially of young adults is much lower than we thought.
"The species is unsustainable - it is on the road to extinction."
Estimates suggest about half of deaths in adult birds are due to accidental capture in fishing lines and nets.
Fishing on the seabed is a particular risk as birds can become entangled and drown when lines are immersed, say researchers in the UK and Spain.
Changes such as setting fishing gear at night when the bird does not dive "could make a massive difference", said Prof Guilford.
"The science shows just how serious the problem is, but also that there is a technically simple solution - the setting of demersal long-lines at night," he added.
The Balearic shearwater (Puffinus mauretanicus) is one of the rarest seabirds in the world.
The seabird is classified as critically endangered on the IUCN Red List of species.
It breeds on cliffs and small islets and lays only one egg.

John Margetts made the claim to an undercover BBC reporter at a Bristol branch of Optical Express.
The firm said "patient care is our utmost priority" and said Mr Margetts had been suspended while disciplinary proceedings took place.
Mr Margetts told the BBC earlier he had not been asked to make the claim by Optical Express.
During the undercover filming, for the BBC programme Inside Out, broadcast on Monday, Mr Margetts claimed fighter pilots were required to have laser eye surgery. The RAF said Mr Margetts' claim was not true.
When asked if the procedure was "100% safe", he replied, "oh yeah".
He told the BBC he must have "mis-heard" the question about whether the treatment was 100% safe. He added that he always explained the potential risks of the procedure.
An Optical Express spokesman said: "All of our clinicians are regularly reviewed to ensure that they are communicating in clear and simple language that patients understand and that they are fully explaining the potential risks, benefits and range of outcomes of eye surgery.
"The statements broadcast by Inside Out West are entirely against our practices and are contrary to all of the guidance provided to our teams."
He added Mr Margetts had been working for the company since November 2014 and had been "regularly appraised", with the "most recent review of his clinical work" taking place last month.
He said: "None of these statements were made in the supervised patient consultations he carried out." | Europe's rarest seabird will be extinct within 60 years, according to a new analysis.

Give a brief overview of this passage. | Taiwan's foreign ministry said the crew of 26 were released after ransom talks.
The freed hostages had been unable to leave under their own steam as their boat had run aground, AFP news agency quotes a ministry statement as saying.
The Shiuh Fu No 1 was seized off the coast of Madagascar in December 2010 before being taken to Somalia.
The boat's crew included 13 Chinese and 12 Vietnamese nationals, as well as a Taiwanese captain.
The released hostages were taken to Tanzania by the Chinese navy vessel, Taiwan's foreign ministry said.
"We appreciate the assistance of the European Union, international anti-piracy organisations, China and other relevant countries," the statement said.
The release of the crew was also confirmed by China's foreign ministry.
Chinese ships have undertaken anti-piracy operations off the coast of Somalia since late 2008. In early 2010, Beijing agreed to join a multi-nation effort to protect shipping in the Gulf of Aden and nearby stretches of the Indian Ocean.
Military vessels from Nato countries, the US, China, Russia, Japan and India are now also involved in patrolling an area of ocean which is about the same size as western Europe.
More than two decades of war in Somalia have left the country without a fully-functioning government, making it hard to deal with piracy.
As the pirates have expanded their operations, they are using bigger ships and equipment funded by the large ransoms paid for the release of hostages.
Currently, they are believed to be holding around seven other hijacked vessels, and dozens of crew members.

Initially the UK homepage of the search engine had a doodle honouring a Japanese Go player.
It admitted to the Daily Telegraph that that had been uploaded in error, and quickly removed it.
Beneath its logo there is a now a link to letters, photos and maps of the Normandy landings.
There was anger on Twitter about the goof.
"What were you thinking #Google?" asked one.
In response Google's director of communication Peter Barron said: "We always intended to highlight a new exhibition of imagery and archive material commemorating D-Day on our homepage.
"Unfortunately a technical error crept in and for a short period this morning an international doodle also appeared. We're sorry for the mistake, and we're proud to honour those who took part in D-Day"
The link to D-Day material takes users to the Google Cultural Institute, which has content on the Normandy landings and access to more than 400 records, some of them published for the first time.
The idea of marking cultural moments via the Google logo was born in 1998 when Larry Page and Sergey Brin, Google's founders, placed a stick figure drawing behind the second 'o' in Google as a message to users that they were out of the office.
Later in the year a turkey was added on Thanksgiving Day, and two pumpkins were made out of the o's in October 1999.

Can you summarize the given article? | Tom Bedford's family thought he was upset because of the match but when he collapsed his dad John attempted CPR.
The family said he died of either an undiagnosed heart condition or a blood clot and are urging parents to get their children to get tested.
Tom's heart is undergoing tests but it could be several months before a cause of death is known.
Updates on this story and more from Leicestershire
The family said a post-mortem examination revealed it was not clear how Tom died and further tests are being carried out at a specialist centre in London.
Tom, a passionate Leicester City fan, was watching the FA Cup replay on 20 January between the Foxes and Tottenham Hotspur in his bedroom at home in Leicestershire.
His dad, also a fan, was watching the game downstairs because "they had a tendency to wind each other up" while watching football.
After Spurs scored their second goal he appeared agitated and upset which was put down to the stress of the game.
When he complained to his mum that he was struggling to breath an ambulance was called but by then he had collapsed and his dad had to attempt CPR.
"It was the worst thing a parent could ever have to do and to see your child get slowly worse in front of you. It was awful. I couldn't believe what was happening," he said.
"It was intense, it was unfair and it was wrong."
Tom was taken to Leicester Royal Infirmary but he later died.
The family said doctors believe Tom's death was likely caused by an irregular heartbeat or a blood clot but it could be six months before they find out more.
Leicester Coroner's Office said it is waiting for the cause of death to be established before deciding if an inquest is needed.

Summarize the information given below. | John Greenwood and Gary Miller died after being found beaten and hidden under a mattress on a rubbish tip in Whiston on 16 August 1980.
A man was tried for their murders in 1981, but found not guilty.
Police are making a fresh appeal for anybody who saw the boys on the day of the murders after receiving new information.
A dog walker found the schoolfriends at about 19.20 BST at the site of a disused colliery on Pottery Lane, which is now Stadt Moers Park.
They both later died at Whiston Hospital as a result of head injuries, post-mortem examinations revealed.
John Greenwood's sister, Deborah Lewis, 38, from Whiston said the last 36 years had been "heartbreaking" to cope with and that the families are "united in their fight for justice".
"The original police investigation was very flawed - mistakes were made and we were let down", she said.
"We tried over the years to get the police to do more and it's very frustrating."
Speaking on behalf of both families, Ms Lewis said "losing the boys in such an horrific way was devastating" and "the fact that no-one has been convicted for their murders has made it so much harder".
She urged "those who know the truth to speak up".
"They were two little boys who went out to play and they never came home... search your consciences and ask yourself: what if it was my child, or grandchild?" she said.
Ms Lewis thanked investigative reporter Josh Boswell, who she said had researched the case and given police the information he uncovered for a Sunday Times investigation.
She said the moment a police officer "took her seriously" and told her they would look into the case again, she "started crying".
Det Ch St Paul Richardson said Merseyside Police were "committed to helping the family try to get the justice they deserve".
He said as a result of the new information, investigators were "particularly interested in talking to anyone who may have seen a man with three young boys, aged between 12 and 14 years, near to the church hall on Dragon Lane, Whiston, between 18.45 BST and 19.20 BST on Saturday 16 August 1980.

"In our first year, we are currently third and have a chance for second, so you just have to continue like that. We have good potential at this club."
Hearts require a draw against Inverness Caledonian Thistle on Tuesday to ensure they will finish no worse off than third in their first season back in Scotland's top tier.
Head coach Robbie Neilson believes such an outcome would be "a great achievement", given he had simply targeted a top-six finish.
Asked if his squad's likely qualification for European competition had surprised him, Neilson told BBC Scotland: "A little bit.
"When you get promoted, you never really know where you are going to be. We had a great season last season, but that was the Championship.
"We have gone up a level and are playing against very good teams every week.
"The consistency has to get looked at, the ability of the players and whether they can play at that level and I think they have performed at a level higher than I expected."
Hearts beat second-top Aberdeen 2-1 on Friday and still have a chance of overhauling the Dons, whose lead would be reduced to six points - with five games left - should Neilson's side win at Caledonian Stadium on Tuesday.
"Our objectives at the start of the year were to try to get into the top six and try to compete with the likes of Dundee and Ross County and St Johnstone and teams like that," he added.
"To be able to get that at this stage of the season before the split to hopefully guarantee European football would be great and it gives us a platform for the last five games to get second place."
The comedian and writer said that in the 1987 election campaign, he and Bill Bragg played gigs in "six important marginals - and lost the lot".
Much of his 1980s stand-up act included anti-Margaret Thatcher jokes.
But he has moved away from politics, writing sitcoms, books and musicals, including one with well-known Conservative peer Lord Lloyd Webber.
That collaboration was one the reasons fellow comedian Mark Steel chose Ben Elton as one of the items he wanted banished to Room 101 in 2007.
As well as his TV and stage jokes directed at the then Conservative Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, Elton also took part in the Red Wedge music and comedy tour seeking to help secure a Labour victory at the 1987 election.
Earlier this year it was reported that Elton had rejoined and donated to the party he left during the Tony Blair's premiership. In that interview he said that he had in recent years donated to, and voted, Green.
At the rally in Warrington, which also featured long-time celebrity Labour backer Eddie Izzard and Coronation Street actress Sally Lindsay, Elton said social mobility in the UK was "shrinking" and claimed many young people today feel they have been "born into a country where the dice have been loaded against them".

Give a brief summary of the following article. | Bijan Ebrahimi was beaten to death and his body set alight on a Bristol estate amid false claims he was a paedophile.
A BBC investigation has found he asked the city council on a weekly, sometimes daily, basis to find him a new home but was given an Asbo in 2010.
The council said a report into the case was being published.
Mr Ebrahimi, a council house tenant, suffered constant abuse at the hands of his neighbours and had already been moved from another part of the area.
But the abuse continued at his final home in Capgrave Crescent, where he was killed by Lee James.
The BBC has learned he was given an Asbo in 2010 as he was viewed as the nuisance, according to the IPCC.
However, with the support of the SARI (Stand Against Racism & Inequality) charity in Bristol and the Avon and Bristol Law Centre, the Asbo was overturned.
Bristol City Council insist that Mr Ebrahimi was issued with an injunction based on anti-social behaviour which they say was "set aside" when Mr Ebrahimi agreed to give "an undertaking to be of good behaviour".
The BBC also spoke to one neighbour who supported Mr Ebrahimi in getting his Asbo lifted.
The woman, who has declined to be named, said his repeated calls for help from the council were "ignored".
She said he faced "death threats, his cat was abused and he had faeces left on his doorstep".
"No action was ever taken against those residents," she said.
She added that she felt scared living in this part of Brislington and was also affected by racism, with her daughter once threatened with a baseball bat.
Bristol City Council says it is investigating its treatment of Mr Ebrahimi, an Iranian refugee.
No report has been published since his death four years ago but the council said one would be released in the coming months.
The council added it had not been able to talk about the report due to legal reasons.
Mr Ebrahimi's family, who said the delay "could be seen by some as a cover-up", are considering taking a civil prosecution against the council.
Last week, the Independent Police Complaints Commission said Mr Ebrahimi reported death threats and racial abuse for seven years.
The report stated he had been treated "consistently differently from his neighbours" in what could be "racial bias, conscious or unconscious".
PC Kevin Duffy and PCSO Andrew Passmore were jailed last year for misconduct over their dealings with Mr Ebrahimi. They and two other police officers were also dismissed from the Avon and Somerset force.
Regarding the Asbo, the IPCC report states: "PC Duffy used his knowledge of Mr Ebrahimi and the latter's reports to the police, as the basis for a statement he wrote in September 2010 to support a Bristol City Council Anti-social Behaviour Order application against Mr Ebrahimi.
"PC Duffy asserted that he had compiled the statement from his personal knowledge and from researching police computer systems.
"From analysing this statement and comparing it with the information held by the force on its incident logs, it is apparent [in the opinion of the investigator] that, in short, PC Duffy misrepresented, was misleading about, and did not accurately reflect the contact between Mr Ebrahimi and the force between 2007 and 2010." | A disabled refugee who was killed by his neighbour repeatedly pleaded with the council to rehouse him - but was given an Anti-social Behaviour Order. |
Provide a summary of the section below. | The BBC understands that he will outline a new management structure for the local health care system.
It comes in response to a review that recommended redesigning the system to make it simpler and more efficient.
The review said Northern Ireland had too many hospitals for its 1.8m population.
It was published in January by Sir Liam Donaldson, the former Chief Medical Officer for England.
It suggested setting up an international panel of experts to redesign the local health system so that expertise is no longer thinly spread.
The report also identified confusion about who was in charge of health care in Northern Ireland.
At present, the Department of Health is responsible for strategy and policy, while below it the Health and Social Care Board is in charge of "commissioning".
In essence, this means the board spends a large part of the health budget identifying needs and acquiring resources and services for the trusts.
The six trusts are then the service providers.
It is understood the minister wants the trusts to be directly accountable to his department, and this could have implications for the Health and Social Care Board.
It currently employs about 470 people, with an administration budget of £27m.
Alongside the board, the Public Health Agency is primarily responsible for improving health and social well-being and health protection, but it also has a role in commissioning. It is understood commissioning will not longer be part of its remit.
The Donaldson review highlighted unnecessary duplication between the department, the health board and the Public Health Agency.
The minister is expected to address this directly.
Any move to restructure the management of the health service will require a public consultation and legislation, meaning it is unlikely to come into effect for between 18 months and two years.
Sir Liam suggested that an international panel of experts be established to make some of the tough decisions regarding the future shape of services, including the number of acute hospitals.
The review highlighted that a population of 1.8m could be served by four rather than 10 hospitals.
Sir Liam said it should be agreed in advance to accept whatever proposals such a panel made.
The BBC understands that Mr Hamilton will set up an expert panel, but it will mostly be made up of local people. There will be no agreement to accept the panel's proposals in advance.
The review also pointed to a report from 2011 called Transforming Your Care which had 99 recommendations.
It focused on moving patient care away from hospitals and into the home or community setting.
Sir Liam said a time-tabled implementation plan was needed that would include an enhanced role for pharmacists and paramedics.
It is understood the minister will announce a 'transformation fund' to be taken out of any additional funding the department receives (currently £4.7bn).
The fund will be used to pay for cost-saving initiatives developed by the trusts and the implementation of Transforming Your Care.
This announcement by the minister is essentially his answer to the Donaldson report - on the question of who is in charge of the health service, Mr Hamilton says he is.
The minister vows to reduce bureaucracy and he suggests reforming a system so service providers work more closely with the decision makers.
Nine managers have left Spurs since Levy took over in 2001, the most recent being Tim Sherwood, who was sacked on Tuesday after five months in charge.
Allen, 52, described Levy as an "incredible" businessman but criticised his football-related decisions.
"I don't think he is a football man," he told BBC Radio 5 live. "Those decisions have come back to haunt him."
Allen, who was interim manager of Spurs for one match in 2007 after Martin Jol was sacked, also criticised the recent transfer dealings of the club.
"It's a very expensive squad and someone has to be answerable for that," he said.
"It's so bitterly disappointing the squad has finished sixth this season and the squad of players, in all honesty, are not competitive with the top four teams.
"A decision was made that a new direction had to be found and I just wonder what that direction is."
Sherwood, 45, was sacked less than a week after comparing himself to a "supply teacher", with players being told by their agents he would not be at the club next season.

Summarize the information in the following document. | The rains, which started on Tuesday, were the worst in 80 years to fall in the region, one of the driest on Earth.
Almost 11,000 people have been affected and more than 4,500 are in shelters.
Interior Minister Rodrigo Penailillo said entire towns had been left without drinking water.
"We as a country will have to put a lot of effort in to get out of this situation," Mr Penailillo said.
Rivers burst their banks after heavy rains in the Andes sent floodwater down into the valleys and towns below.
The desert town of Chanaral was among the hardest hit with rivers of mud covering many of its streets.
In Tierra Amarilla, emergency workers rescued 13 miners who had been cut off in a remote mining camp for five days.
The search for 20 people still missing continues.
Among the thousands who lost their home is Victor Zamora, one of the Chilean miners who was trapped underground for 69 days in 2010.
He told local media that he had lost everything.
"It's a tragedy," he said.
The discovery was made by security experts who found partial card numbers and home addresses on a public website.
The company acknowledged there had been "confusion" over earlier claims that it did not hold any card details.
Security expert Troy Hunt advised customers to cancel their credit card if they think details have been stolen.
PayAsUGym, which sells passes for gyms around the UK, alerted its members to the security breach in an email on Friday which said "one of the company's IT servers was accessed by an unauthorised person".
While it said email addresses and passwords were accessed, it claimed "we do not hold any financial or credit card information".
The company said 300,000 customers details had been stolen.
However, several customers' credit card details - including 10 digits of their card number, the expiry date and their home address - appear to have been published online.
Once alerted by BBC News, PayAsUGym chief executive Jamie Ward said "we didn't consider" that PayAsUGym holds partial credit card details.
He said customers could contact PayAsUGym directly to find out the exact information they hold.
He added: "We've been completely clear with every customer that has contacted us since our original statement on what we hold."
Security expert Mr Hunt, who tracks breached websites, said he came across several people's details online.
Mr Hunt said: "If it was me, and that information was public, I would cancel the card straight away."
He said the first six digits and last four digits of people's cards had been "dumped on a website, presumably by the perpetrator".
Mr Hunt explained that fraudsters can use computer algorithms to work out complete credit card details "within seconds".
"PayAsUGym has stated that there is no card data at risk, yet here we have a screen grab of a large amount of card data," he said. "There's some transparency lacking here."
PayAsUGym said it had started using new servers after speaking with cyber security professionals.
The website said it used a "tokenised system" for customer payments which, it says, means card details are stored at the payment gateway - not on its servers.
PayAsUGym's Mr Ward added: "We don't hold the full number for security reasons. The payment is then made using a tokenised system."
The company advised concerned customers to contact them. | Officials in Chile said 17 people were killed and 20 were still missing after flash floods devastated the Atacama region in the north of the country last week.

Provide a brief summary for the information below. | The ruby-red Mughal spinel pendant is inscribed with the names of royal patrons and was lost for several weeks in England during the 1920s.
A US newspaper at the time reported that it was found by a Leicestershire railway worker before it was reclaimed.
It was bought by a private collector for £272,750 on Wednesday.
The estimated guide price for the auction on Wednesday was between £60,000 and £80,000.
Benedict Carter from Sotheby's auctioneers said the gem was a symbol of "power and prestige" and was expertly inscribed in "flowing Persian script" with the names of three Mughul emperors.
The spinel pendant is walnut-sized and hangs on a gold chain with a tassel of pearls.
Mr Carter said he found the American newspaper article in the archives but was unable to confirm the details because the paper had closed down in 1930s.
"The story was in the Shamokin Dispatch in Pennsylvania but I wasn't able to find any other references to it in papers in the US or here in Britain.

Dermot O'Leary and Emma Willis have been drafted in to present the ceremony at London's O2 Arena, after original host Michael Buble pulled out to care for his young son, who is receiving treatment for cancer.
Willis, a mum-of-three who presents The Voice UK and Big Brother, said she hoped she could "do him proud".

The star will introduce performances from the following acts:
This year's ceremony is notable for its recognition of grime, which re-emerged from the underground last year, asserting its position as the UK's biggest musical movement since Britpop.
Skepta, who won the 2016 Mercury Prize for his self-released album Konnichiwa, is favourite to win best breakthrough artist; while fellow grime MCs Stormzy and Kano are also up for awards.
Bowie - who died in January last year - is likely to prevail in the best British male category, as the music industry takes itschance to honour one of rock's most recognisable and influential figures.

Give a concise summary of the passage below. | The 27-year-old's contract with French club Toulon expires in the summer.
Halfpenny, who scored 16 points in Toulon's European Champions Cup win over Scarlets on Sunday said his international career was a major consideration.
"I'm weighing up everything. Hopefully I can make a decision very shortly," he said.
Should he decide to remain in France, Halfpenny would rely on a wildcard pick to play for Wales under terms of the Welsh Rugby Union's senior player selection policy.
"I want to be playing top-flight rugby but the biggest consideration is obviously the wildcard," Halfpenny said.
"International rugby is hugely important for me and I have to consider that."
Halfpenny said in late October he would decide whether to stay with Toulon or return to Wales "in the next month or so" following the autumn Test series.
Former Toulon head coach Diego Dominguez said earlier in October he was confident Halfpenny would stay with the former European champions, whom he joined in 2014
"I know I said I was going to focus on the internationals and then think and that's what I'm doing now, going through that process of making a decision," Halfpenny added.
"My agent's looking at the options and hopefully he can get them on the table and I'll have a look at my options and make a decision then."
Halfpenny said it was "good fun" facing a number of his Wales team-mates in Toulon's 31-20 win over Scarlets.
The former Cardiff Blues player scored 16 points in a victory which lifted the three-times champions to nine points in the pool, five behind defending champions Saracens.
"We'll enjoy this win and then look to prepare heading to Wales next week," Halfpenny added.
"The Scarlets will look to come out fighting and it's going to be tough there. They've got quality across the park.
"All we can do is take each game as it comes. We know the task ahead of us is a huge challenge.
"We're trying to build, week on week, game on game.
"If we continue to improve then hopefully we can achieve what we set out to do and that's to advance in this competition and challenge for the title."
He took over the role from Dave Brooks in 2013, after previously working at both Surrey and Hampshire.
"It has been a difficult decision to make but I do believe that it is right for me to move on and hand over the reins to a successor," Toumazi said.
The Division Two side began their final County Championship match of the season against Gloucestershire on Tuesday.
BBC Sussex's Adrian Harms: "This has been a difficult season for Zac Toumazi particularly as performances on the field, notably in white-ball cricket, haven't matched the expectations of the Sussex supporters.
"However, it has also been a traumatic period for the club off the field following the tragic death of young bowler Matthew Hobden, and Toumazi deserves great credit for the way in which both he and the club responded to the tragedy with great dignity.
"He leaves at a time of great change in county cricket, particularly with a new T20 competition seemingly inevitable, and the members will expect a prompt appointment to steer Sussex through what are likely to be choppy waters ahead." | Wales full-back Leigh Halfpenny says he will consider all his options before making a decision on his future.

Give a concise summary of the passage below. | Stewart netted 11 times last term, while Hemmings scored 25 goals on his debut season at Dens Park.
Hemmings, 24, has two years to run on his deal, while Stewart, 26, has 12 months remaining on his contract.
"We have had a lot of interest, but no concrete offers," said Hartley. "They are two players we want to keep."
Both men, team-mates at Cowdenbeath in 2013-14, were shortlisted for PFA Scotland player of the year, making it two seasons in a row for Stewart to be recognised by his peers.
Stewart scored 15 goals in his first campaign for Hartley's side and was used mainly in a wide role in the past term.
"Obviously we can't stop speculation," added Hartley. "They are a vital part of our team and we want to hold on to them as much as we can.
"The window shuts in August, so there could be something in the next few weeks, who knows?"
With Stewart entering the final year of his contract, Hartley insists he would rather run the risk of losing out on a fee than sell on the cheap.
"I rate him very highly," Hartley explained. "It would take a lot of money for someone to take Greg away from us.
"We understand he is in the last year of his contract, but we don't want to sell him and, if we have got him for another year, we will keep him - with the possibility of getting no fee whatsoever.

Please summarize the passage below. | Suhaib Majeed, 21, had "Mujahideen Secrets" on his laptop, the jury heard.
Mr Majeed, along with Nathan Cuffy, 26, Nyall Hamlett, 25, and Tarik Hassane, 22, from west London, deny conspiracy to murder and preparing terrorist acts.
It is alleged they were inspired by the Islamic State group and plotted to kill a police officer, soldier or civilian.
The Old Bailey heard that Mr Majeed liaised via Skype, the internet-based communication software, with someone overseas who helped him download the software, which the prosecution said was designed for Islamist terrorists to exchange encrypted messages.
The contact abroad told Mr Majeed to "stay sharp" but unknown to either of them he was already under surveillance by counter-terrorism officers, the court was told.
The prosecution says Mr Majeed and fellow defendant Mr Hassane were in frequent contact about how to cover their tracks using false names and addresses and a variety of SIM cards.
The jury also saw evidence they had set up a code to share new phone numbers but Mr Majeed did not fully understand it, leading to a string of abusive messages from Mr Hassane.
Coded messages were used on Twitter to discuss getting a gun, the court heard.
While Mr Hassane, a medical student, was in Casablanca in Morocco, he exchanged direct messages on the microblogging site with Mr Majeed about sourcing "creps" or "black Huaraches".
Prosecutor Brian Altman QC told jurors that would ordinarily be a reference to a certain brand of Nike trainer, but in their secret language they meant firearms.
Days later, on 25 August 2014, Mr Majeed reported back "I got it", to which Mr Hassane replied "kl" (cool).
Mr Hassane was alleged to have been leading the plot and to have issued instructions to Mr Majeed, who was studying physics at King's College London at the time of his arrest, the court has heard.
Jurors have also heard that by the time three of the gang were arrested in September 2014, they had a gun and ammunition and were discussing buying an untraceable scooter.
Mr Hassane, who was studying in Sudan, returned to the UK to carry on as a "lone wolf terrorist" but was arrested by police in early October 2014, the trial heard.
Using Google Streetview photo-mapping service, he had allegedly identified Shepherd's Bush police station and the Parachute Regiment Territorial Army Barracks at White City as possible targets.
Mr Majeed, Mr Cuffy and Mr Hamlett are also charged with various firearms offences.
The trial continues.
The deal includes a firm order for 100 new planes, 55 from a earlier contract and the right to buy a further 50 jets.
SpiceJet is India's fourth largest airline, though its future looked in doubt in late 2014 after planes were grounded due to unpaid fuel bills.

Boeing said the first of the Max 737 planes would be delivered to SpiceJet in 2018.
"This is the largest deal for SpiceJet, it's one of the largest in Indian aviation and is the largest for Boeing in India," said SpiceJet's chairman Ajay Singh.

Summarize the following excerpt. | Since political reforms began in Myanmar, also known as Burma, in 2011, the economy has been growing steadily at more than 5% a year.
In Yangon, also known as Rangoon, that change is evident in new buildings, nascent shopping malls and, unfortunately, the traffic.
Some have done very well since the lifting of international sanctions and the opening up of Myanmar's economy. But what about those at the bottom of the pile?
Than Nyunt, 50, earns a living diving for scraps of iron and timber in the Yangon River. Each morning, he boards a creaking wooden boat and heads out on to the water.
At a promising-looking spot, an anchor is dropped and dragged along the river bed. If it hits something, Than Nyunt dons a rudimentary home-made mask and leaps into the water.
The Yangon River serves as the sewer as well as the lifeblood for Myanmar's largest city. Its colour is somewhere between melted milk chocolate and black coffee. Visibility is zero.
"We are clever at this and experienced. We know the river," he says with a smile.
"When we're on the river bed we crawl on our hands and knees touching things."
Finding anything is largely down to luck. On average, he earns about $15 (£10) a day. But turning up a large piece of iron such as a propeller or anchor, can earn his team between $50 and $100.
It is a dangerous business. The air he breathes is pumped from a simple compressor through a hose that can easily snag.
"Many people have been killed doing this, including my trainer and some of my friends," he says.
Some divers have been trapped inside shipwrecks or had their masks ripped off by strong, underwater currents.
Myanmar's recent transformation has made very little difference to the divers, but for others it has brought opportunity.
With diplomats for parents, Ye Htut Win or Sharky , as he is better known, spent most of his formative years living abroad. During that time he developed a passion for European delicacies, and in the mid-1990s challenged himself to return home and make them.
He employed farmers on the outskirts of Yangon to grow vegetables which he then sold to Yangon's hotels. Later, he tried replicating Western dishes.
"I've always believed that good food has a power, a magic that can bring joy," he says.
Shielded by the cocoon of sanctions and Myanmar's pariah status, Sharky was able to hone his skills as a farmer, gourmet cheesemaker and baker.
"The country was isolated, it was literally lockdown so I had no competition," he says. "Literally you could do what you want. As long as it was not politics."
But the market was also limited. There was a very small group of resident expats, and most Burmese had not tasted Western food.
But with the country opening up and the number of tourists rising each year, Sharky is now reaping the rewards.
He is about to open his fourth branch, on the iconic Pansodan street in downtown Yangon. Like his other restaurants-cum-delis, it will sell everything from hummus and ham, to Burmese sea salt.
He believes that whatever happens politically, Myanmar's economic transformation is irreversible.
"I think the genie is out of the bottle," he says. "During this period, whoever governs the country, jobs have to be provided, futures have to be provided for, and I do believe that you cannot stop it anymore."
Nang Kham Noung has been destined for Myanmar's top table since birth. Her father is the well-connected founder and chairman of the country's biggest bank KBZ.
Thanks in part to its close ties to the government, KBZ has grown rapidly from just 50 branches in 2011 to more than 350 now.
After studying in Singapore, London and Qatar, Marlene, as she prefers to be called, was summoned back to Yangon by her father and, at the age of 24, became the fresh-faced executive director of KBZ Group.
"My sister and I are second generation business leaders. The plan is that my father will pass on the bank to my sisters and I to run the business."
For now, she is focused on learning how the business works. Cash is still king in Myanmar - a legacy of a run on the country's private banks in 2003 - so branch offices are piled high with blocks of banknotes.
"We have just reintroduced cards so it's taking time to rebuild confidence in the system," she says.
Until recently, sanctions meant the Burmese financial system was, in effect, cut off from the international network. That is slowly changing.
Cash machines in Myanmar accept foreign cards but transactions between Western and Burmese banks are still complicated.
"It's getting easier every day," Marlene says. "But it's still more difficult than in other countries because international banks are just getting to know us again and they have their own compliance policies."
Internet entrepreneur Ye Myat Min is also 24, and on paper at least, also a millionaire.
His fortune though is entirely self-made. Two and a half years ago Ye Myat's internet and app design company Nex started by renting six desks in a dingy building in downtown Yangon.
At the time, Ye Myat divided his time between his studies in Singapore and trying to get the business off the ground.
The combination did not work. His grades plummeted and, much to his parents' annoyance, he dropped his studies and returned to work full-time in Yangon.
But the timing was good. Myanmar was on the cusp of a connectivity revolution. State-of-the-art mobile networks were about to be built across the country and smartphone sales were rocketing.
"The internet connection back in 2009 was really bad," Ye Myat says. Bad enough that he could watch a feature film in the time that it took to load a single simple web page.
These days, the internet is not as good as other Asian countries but, says Ye Myat, it is "getting usable".
Ye Myat's most popular and controversial product is an anonymous chatting app called Hush. It enables people to exchange messages without revealing anything about themselves.
Myanmar's past as a closed-off country means that many people are "very conservative, shy and closed about their opinions", he explains.
His anonymous platform allows people to speak more openly about their opinions.
The company currently has 30 employees and is expecting to add another 10 in the coming months. They are hoping to become profitable too.
When Myanmar goes to the polls on 8 November, it will take a leap into the unknown after 25 years of military rule. However, one man is approaching the day with certainty if not clarity.
San Zarni Bo is the country's most famous astrologer, dispensing predictions in newspapers and on radio stations and in person from a modest house on the outskirts of Yangon.
Inside, the waiting room is packed, mainly with women. Some of them are pregnant and wanting guidance on an auspicious date for a Caesarean, others seek advice on their children's names.
Each morning, he sees up to 30 people reading palms and analysing birth dates making, he tells us, more than $1,000 a day.
"Astrology is based on both the tradition and the culture here in Myanmar," he explains.
"It's for everything. If they want to build a house the astrologer can calculate a good time to start it."
But San Zarni Bo dispenses more than personal advice.
Astrology and numerology permeate Burmese political life and key decisions. Even the timing of the move to the new capital Nay Pyi Taw is said to have been taken on advice of fortune tellers.
The outlook for election day, according to San Zarni Bo, is mixed at best.
"It's not an auspicious day. In fact, it's a very bad day," he says. "There may be instability. There may be a coup d'etat."
He is a longstanding supporter of opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi and has predicted she will eventually become the country's president.
"She's like a diamond being polished getting brighter and brighter. She's born on 19 June - she can gain more and more from the instability."

Please provide a short summary of this passage. | Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) and Halifax said they had received a total of 2,384 applications, potentially worth £365m in mortgages.
The scheme is designed to encourage lenders to offer mortgages with deposits as low as 5%.
But critics are concerned it could help to create a UK housing bubble.
RBS and its subsidiary NatWest, and Halifax - owned by Lloyds Banking Group - are among the few lenders to offer mortgages under the government's extended scheme.
HSBC and Barclays are planning to offer such mortgages in the future, but Nationwide, the UK's second largest lender, has not yet made a decision.
The first phase of Help to Buy was launched in April, but only provided help to first-time buyers buying new-build homes. The extended scheme applies to all buyers and all types of homes, up to a value of £600,000.
Under this part of the scheme, up to 15% of the value of the loan will be guaranteed by the Treasury.
RBS said it had so-far approved 169 of its 1,075 applications, and five customers had already completed their purchases.
It said the majority of applications had come from young couples with a joint salary of less than £50,000. The average price of the property being bought was £167,565.
Unlike the first part of the Help to Buy Scheme, part two also offers help to existing home owners.
However, Halifax said more than 80% of the applications it had received under the scheme were from first-time buyers, while RBS/NatWest said it was 73%.
RBS said the majority of applications had come from outside London and the south-east of England, where property prices are rising fastest.
It also said that five purchases had so far been completed.
The government welcomed the figures, saying the scheme was supporting "responsible lending", helping borrowers who could afford mortgage repayments, but not a large deposit.
"Four weeks in and its clear that Help to Buy is already delivering," said Prime Minister David Cameron.
"Most Help to Buy applicants are first-time buyers, young and have a roughly average household income. This is all about helping hardworking people get on the first rung of the property ladder."
But critics have expressed concern that the scheme could create a bubble in the housing market, making home affordability an even bigger problem.
Chris Leslie, the shadow chief secretary to the Treasury, said: "If the government was serious about helping first-time buyers they would also be bringing forward investment to build more affordable homes.
"Rising demand for housing must be matched with rising supply, but under this government house building is at its lowest level since the 1920s," he said.
Labour says that the Bank of England should review the scheme immediately, rather than waiting for a year.
The latest figures from the Office for National Statistics suggest average house prices in the UK are at a record level.
Other measures suggest house prices and housing transactions are well short of the pre-crisis peak.
Figures from Halifax suggest house prices are well below what they were in 2007, but have risen steadily for the last nine consecutive months.
The Nationwide Building Society says prices are currently 5.8% higher than a year ago.
But estate agents argue that much of those price rises are seen in London and the south-east of England, while prices in other parts of the country are rising more slowly, or in some cases actually falling.

Please summarize the passage below. | David Warner (122) and Mitchell Marsh (102 not out) helped Australia set a daunting total of 330-7 in Sydney.
But Pandey's 104 not out led the charge to guide the tourists to victory by six wickets with two balls to spare.
India opener Rohit Sharma had earlier scored 99 on his way to claiming man of the series.
Rohit hit 441 runs in the five matches at an average of 110, including two centuries.
Australia had looked likely to add to their 18 consecutive ODI victories on home soil with another impressive batting display.
Opener Warner smashed his 122 off 113 balls and Marsh claimed his first ODI century with 102 off just 84 balls.
Once again in the series, India's bowlers struggled with only debutant Jaspit Bumrah giving some measure of control with figures of 2-40 off his 10 overs.
India got their reply off to a solid start with Rohit and Shikhar Dhawan (78) putting on 123.
Rohit was eventually caught behind by Matthew Wade off the bowling of John Hastings just one short of another century, but this time India avoided the batting collapse that had characterised the previous matches in the series.
Pandey, in only his fourth ODI, kept pace with the run chase and with support from skipper MS Dhoni (34) saw them home in a thrilling finish. | Manish Pandey scored a maiden one-day international century as India beat Australia with a ball to spare to avoid a whitewash in the five-match series. |

Please provide a concise summary of the following section. | Fears that coal exports and oil and gas exploration would jeopardise the reef prompted the Unesco delegation's visit.
Environmentalists have urged the government to suspend mining development until a government review is completed.
The reef is home to 400 types of coral and 1,500 species of fish.
The Great Barrier Reef, which holds Unesco World Heritage status, lies off the coast of the state of Queensland, which is the largest producer of coal in the country.
The Unesco team is scheduled to visit the reef for a week before making recommendations to the World Heritage committee. They will also meet members of the government.
Environmentalists are concerned that an increase in coal production and the shipping traffic that would follow could affect the Great Barrier Reef's World Heritage status.
They want the government to suspend all new developments while a state and federal review of the health of the reef is carried out.
Greenpeace Australia Pacific's senior climate and energy campaigner John Hepburn said the mining industry was threatening the reef's future.
"The Great Barrier Reef is in danger from the coal industry and the fossil fuel boom that is happening, but it is a reckless expansion that will have direct impacts both in terms of the dredging as well as the increased shipping, as well as the impact of climate change on the Great Barrier Reef," he said.
The BBC's Phil Mercer says the exploitation of oil and gas is driving industrial expansion along much of Australia's most famous wilderness area, including plans for the world's biggest coal port near the town of Bowen.

Provide a brief summary for the information below. | NHS guidelines say patients should have an initial appointment within 18 weeks, but in Leeds the average is about 83.
Extra funding has been secured to address concerns about a lack of support for those on the waiting list.
Leeds and York Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (LYPFT) said it hoped to meet its target by October 2018.
The Leeds GIC is one of seven adult clinics in England.
In 2015/16 it received 533 referrals from GPs of which 370 came from outside of Yorkshire and The Humber, predominantly from the North West where there are no clinics.
LYPFT said it had introduced a new screening process to identify those unsuitable for the service more quickly and is recruiting peer support workers in West Yorkshire and Manchester to support those waiting for a consultation.
It has also secured "significant investment" from NHS England to increase staffing capacity to a level it says will allow it to handle 40 extra assessments a month.
Jackie Kernaghan, 21, from York, has been on the waiting list for Leeds GIC since August 2014.
She said the wait was both "frustrating and dangerous" for transgender people.
"You are very much left alone," she said.
"There's no contact to see how you are doing, it's very much that you are on the waiting list and you just have to wait.
"A lot of transgender people are in very vulnerable positions that can only be aggravated by a long waiting period."
Other GICs have also seen a similar increase in demand.
At Sheffield GIC referrals have risen from 71 in 2010 to 350 in 2015, while the West London GIC, said referrals had risen on average 15% each year to 1,892 in 2015/16.
Andy Weir, from LYPFT, said through increasing capacity it expected to see a "significant drop" in waiting times and hoped the introduction of peer support workers would "ensure a more proactive period of support and signposting for service users". | Measures aimed at cutting the time transgender people have to wait for a consultation at an NHS gender identity clinic (GIC) have been introduced. |

Summarize the content provided below. | A safety review and production freeze has been ordered at all defence department facilities handling the biological agents.
It follows a new discovery of anthrax contamination at the Dugway research centre in Utah.
A review was ordered this year after live anthrax was sent in error to labs.
Those shipments took place between March 2014 and April 2015.
The labs were in 11 US states as well as South Korea and Australia, the Pentagon said, although it insisted there was no known risk to the general public.
Symptoms of anthrax exposure include skin ulcers, nausea, vomiting and fever, and it can cause death if untreated.
Army Secretary John McHugh imposed the new crackdown after anthrax contamination was discovered in "secure areas located outside the primary containment area" at Dugway.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said in a statement: "If proper biosafety procedures had been followed, these surfaces should have been free of the agent."
It said there was no risk to the public.
After the scare earlier this year, the army suspended production, handling, testing and shipment of anthrax at four laboratories - Dugway and three in Maryland.
That moratorium is now expanded to critical reagents and other agents and toxins.
Those laboratories and five others must also conduct new safety reviews.
Mr McHugh said: "I understand that these measures will affect ongoing research activities, and I expect to grant waivers in appropriate circumstances."
What is anthrax?
Anthrax bacteria live primarily in inactive spores and are found naturally in the soil, but people can ingest or inhale spores, which can make the anthrax active.
Not all will be sickened when exposed to anthrax but left untreated, anthrax illness can turn very serious or lead to death.
A blood culture test is used to confirm anthrax exposure.
Anthrax entered the US national consciousness in 2001, when shortly after the 9/11 attacks, letters containing powdered anthrax arrived at news organisations and the offices of US senators. Twenty-two people were sickened and of those, five people died.

Please summarize the given passage. | The guidelines, which come into force from July, reflect 2014 changes to the law that increased maximum sentences.
The Sentencing Council said sentences were "likely to be higher than in the past" but must be "proportionate".
A council member said some irresponsible owners' dogs "put people at risk of injury and... even death".
The 2014 changes raised the maximum jail sentence for a fatal dog attack from two years to 14.
The amendments to the Dangerous Dogs Act also extended the law to include attacks which happen on private property, and introduced a new offence of attacks on assistance dogs such as guide dogs.
The changes to the sentencing guidelines cover offences where a dog injures or kills a person, injures an assistance dog, or where someone possesses a banned breed.
The banned breeds are:
District Judge Richard Williams, a member of the Sentencing Council, said the guidelines "allow for a broad range of sentences to be given, depending on the seriousness of each offence".
He said: "We know that the majority of dog owners are responsible and ensure their pets do not put anyone in danger, but there are some irresponsible owners whose dogs do put people at risk of injury and in some cases even death."
Amanda Peynado, from Salisbury in Wiltshire, lost her left arm when she was attacked in 2007 by a Rottweiler that had been taken in by the kennel where she worked.
She told BBC Two's Victoria Derbyshire programme she had been exercising the dog, a stray, when "out of the blue, for no reason, he just attacked me".
She said the dog attacked her for an hour and a half during which it "kept coming back and taking chunks out of me".
"I lost my left arm, I nearly lost my right arm, he ripped a big hole in my back, he took muscle from my leg. Not a very nice experience in all," she said.
"I knew if he could have got my throat that would have been the end of me."
Speaking about changes to the sentencing guidelines, she said "99% of the time there's not a bad dog there's a bad owner".
She said it was important for irresponsible owners to be targeted before their animals attacked anyone.
Mr Williams said those in charge of a dangerous dog, where a victim died, would be deemed to have "high culpability", with sentences ranging from six to 14 years.
Other factors where an offender is deemed to have "high culpability" include the dog being used as a weapon, being trained to be aggressive or where someone has a banned breed.
Those who are already disqualified from owning a dog will also face the toughest penalties.
The same factors will also be used to assess blameworthiness in cases where a victim is injured.
The Dog's Trust, which "broadly welcomes" the new guidelines, said: "We hope that with the increased maximum sentences for dog attacks, dog owners will be encouraged to ensure they act responsibly and that ultimately there will be a reduction in the number of dangerous dog attacks, although it is more likely that prevention will come from education."
James White, of the charity Guide Dogs, welcomed the guidelines and said: "Sadly, every year we hear of more than 100 guide dogs being attacked by other dogs."
He said such attacks were "traumatic" and might stop dogs from working, meaning their owner "may find it impossible to leave home on their own".
The Kennel Club said owners needed to take responsibility for training their dogs.
It added that the breed of a dog "plays only a small part" in its temperament, with breeding socialisation and environment having a "far greater influence". | Pet owners convicted of dangerous dogs offences will face harsher punishments under new sentencing guidelines in England and Wales. |
Summarize the passage below. | Blood cells tend to degrade quickly, and earlier scans for blood within Oetzi's body turned up nothing.
Now a
study in the Journal of the Royal Society Interface
shows that Oetzi's remarkable preservation extends even to the blood he shed shortly before dying.
The find represents by far the oldest red blood cells ever observed.
It is just the latest chapter in what could be described as the world's oldest murder mystery.
Since Oetzi was first found by hikers with an arrow buried in his back, experts have determined that he died from his wounds and what his last meal was.
There has been extensive debate as to whether he fell where he died or was buried there by others.
In February, Albert Zink and colleagues at the Eurac Institute for Mummies and the Iceman in Bolzano, Italy
.
An earlier study by the group,
published in the Lancet
, showed that a wound on Oetzi's hand contained haemoglobin, a protein found in blood - but it had long been presumed that red blood cells' delicate nature would have precluded their preservation.
Prof Zink and his colleagues collaborated with researchers at the Center for Smart Interfaces at the University of Darmstadt in Germany to apply what is known as atomic force microscopy to thin slices of tissue taken from an area surrounding the arrow wound.
The technique works using a tiny metal tip with a point just a few atoms across, dragged along the surface of a sample. The tip's movement is tracked, and results in a 3-D map at extraordinary resolution.
The team found that the sample from Oetzi contained structures with a tell-tale "doughnut" shape, just as red blood cells have.
To ensure the structures were preserved cells and not contamination of some kind, they confirmed the find using a laser-based technique called Raman spectroscopy - those results also indicated the presence of haemoglobin and the clot-associated protein fibrin.
That, Prof Zink explained, seems to solve one of the elements of the murder mystery.
"Because fibrin is present in fresh wounds and then degrades, the theory that Oetzi died some days after he had been injured by the arrow, as had once been mooted, can no longer be upheld," he said.
The team also suggest that their methods may prove to be of use in modern-day forensics studies, in which the exact age of blood samples is difficult to determine.

"I think we all know at some point he will move on, it's just about timing," Rodgers told BBC Sport.
"But I know at this point he's very happy here. He's only 20 and he's been a joy to work with.
"There's no doubt there will be a natural point in time that he goes, I think we all understand that. Unfortunately, that's how it goes up here. But if he serves the club well in his time here that's all we can ask for."

What is a brief summary of the information below? | They were almost rekindled in an even more remarkable second half when Wales - trailing 25-7 with six minutes remaining - nearly pulled off the greatest of escapes.
But it was a comeback too far for a team who have almost made winning after starting poorly an art form. A brutal, sometimes bloody and always nail-biting one; but art isn't always beautiful.
Wales' slow starts are proving to be a hard habit to break, and a bad habit to have.
Think back to the 2013 Championship and the opening day defeat after trailing 23-3 at half time against Ireland.
Wales did not concede another try that season and won the title.
Against Ireland this year they were 13-3 down approaching half-time before fighting back for a 16-16 draw.
They were trailing against Scotland until the hour mark.
But England are not Scotland or this season's injury-hit Ireland. They are better.
The truth, which Warren Gatland acknowledged without saying it outright, was that England deserved to win.
Wales were lucky to be still in with a shout after a first half which Gatland did comment directly on.
"Unacceptable" was his one-word verdict. Other single words were used by Welsh fans, but they cannot be printed.
England were very good when they had the ball, which they did for most of the first hour.
It was a contrast to the errors Gatland's team made in possession.
Occasionally comical, as when Jamie Roberts and Dan Biggar collided in midfield, Wales' many mistakes meant they could not build momentum themselves. Oh, and they missed 19 tackles in the first half.
In the context of Wales' fixture list, these are worrying trends.
Before the end of June, they face England in Twickenham again, and then three Test matches in New Zealand.
A first half like that in Auckland or Wellington will be very costly. The All Blacks don't butcher gilt-edged chances the way England did twice.
Neither do they take their foot off the gas.
So instead of playing for a fourth title in eight years when Italy come to Cardiff next Saturday, Wales are playing for second place after being second best for much of the Twickenham encounter.
Injury could rule out captain Sam Warburton, who is undergoing concussion protocols after receiving an accidental kick in the head.
And Gatland, not a man for sentiment in selection, hinted that further changes are in the air.
"Some people came off the bench and did some good things for us," he said.
"Ken Owens, the way he carried the ball, gave us some go-forward and we need to look at potentially an opportunity for players and to develop the depth in the squad as well.
"It may be making a few changes but we also have (to be) smart as well because if England do beat France then when we play Italy we are playing for second place which is pretty important as well."
The New Zealander will be hoping they can repeat in a week the turnaround they achieved in less than 40 minutes against the English.
The problem facing Wales is Italy will arrive in Cardiff demoralised after shipping more than 50 points against Ireland.
Without underestimating them, it is not the yardstick against which Gatland needs to measure his side.
The danger is Wales could win comfortably, finish second in the championship - depending on other results - without learning much.
Italian captain Sergio Parisse's power to coax a reaction out of his battered team could be as vital to Wales as that of their own players.

Please provide a summary for the content below. | Residents in Consett, County Durham, were paid to forward post that came to their address, but said they otherwise had no involvement in the companies.
One, John Mawson, said he "didn't really know" what his role involved.
Simon Dowson, who set up the legal firms, said everyone was informed.
Mr Dowson, 35, from Shotley Bridge formed the shell entities to provide a UK address, directors, company records and tax returns to meet UK requirements so overseas online businesses could trade in Europe.
These were businesses considered by credit card companies to be at high risk of refund requests.
The investigation by the Reuters news agency found at least 429 unconnected people in the town were paid £50 cash to become directors, with a further £150 a year for forwarding company mail and fees for extra paperwork.
Mr Mawson, 61, was recruited by a neighbour who had already signed up.
"All we were told was that we would just get letters sent and all we had to do was hand them on," he told BBC Newcastle.
"Money was rather tight. All we wanted was a bit of extra cash."
Another director, Andrew McBride, 46, said he did not realise what he had agreed to, but accepted he should have checked further.
Mr Dowson was paid between £2,500 and £3,000 per shell company, administering 1,200 at his peak.
Using unconnected individuals as directors prevented "cross contamination" if credit card companies withdrew services from one company, he said.
"It's a very simple operation. It's commonplace. It's just not commonplace here," he said.
Mr Dowson said the directors were given information about the companies, their role and any documents they had to sign.
"There was nobody ever kept in the dark," he said.
Mr Mawson only found out a few years ago that one of his directorships involved pornography sites and wanted "nothing more to do" with the arrangement.
Mr Dowson said the overseas companies' trade included travel, bingo and "vanilla" dating sites, not just adult entertainment.
He has been investigated by the Insolvency Service, part of what is now the government's Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, he said.
Some of the firms using his service have also been investigated, and some closed down, but there have been no criminal charges or sanctions brought against Mr Dowson or any of the directors.
He was told what he had been doing was "incorrect or maybe not best practice" but "not illegal in any way, shape or form", he said.
He has agreed to stop using untrained people as directors and said his company formation business would soon close.

Westmorland and Lonsdale MP Tim Farron criticised the report as "vague".
The plan aims to "tackle life expectancy inequality" and make care "more person-centred and coordinated", the report said.
It also intends to "relieve the financial pressures" on local NHS providers, partly by encouraging and supporting people to "assume greater responsibility for their own good health" and reducing "over reliance on acute hospital-based services".
The report suggests "enhancing" the role of charity and voluntary organisations in supporting mainstream services.
Changes to acute and specialist services have not been ruled out.
NHS England has split the country into 44 geographic areas - called 'footprints' - each of which must soon produce a sustainability and transformation plan (STP).
Liberal Democrat Farron said it was a "vague report - vaguer than most others around the country".
"The government has asked them to make cuts of a ludicrous proportion, over half a billion pounds in the next five years - impossible to do - and they are maybe playing for time or looking for other ways out and so their proposals are very thin," he said.
Lancashire and South Cumbria's STP covers five areas: Central Lancashire, West Lancashire, Pennine Lancashire, Fylde Coast and the Bay Health & Care Partners area.

Estate agent Connells Group confirmed Pondtail Wood near Hurstpierpoint will be sold at auction on 12 September.
Protesters were appalled at the destruction of ancient woods by landowner Wineham Properties Ltd earlier this year.
The Forestry Commission ordered the trees be replanted by 30 April 2017 and looked after for 10 years.
The South Downs National Park Authority (SDNPA) also investigated and issued Stop and Enforcement Notices in June.
But solicitors for Wineham Properties Ltd lodged an appeal in July which suspended the notice until the appeal was decided or withdrawn, the SDNPA said.
A spokesperson for the SDNPA said: "We are aware that a for sale sign went up last week. The landowner is legally entitled to sell the property.
"The notices stay with the land and so will transfer to any new owner. The owner should declare the notices prior to any sale."

They claimed to have brought the restored gospel of Jesus Christ and began holding baptisms in the river.
The concert - in July at Avenham Park - will mark the 175th anniversary of the baptisms which drew huge crowds.
Dr James Holt, from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (LDS), said: "There were 8,000 onlookers that day; we hope to exceed that number in July."
The church has had a varied history in Lancashire.
Many do not see them as true Christians claiming their beliefs are too at odds with "mainstream" Christianity.
There have been allegations of them being too secretive and cultish.
There were protests from local faith groups when the Preston Temple of the Church, the largest of its kind in Europe, was opened in Chorley in 1998.
Dr Holt said he believes the church has allayed those worries.
"I think things have settled down a lot now that people see members of the church and have got to know them," he said.
"They realise that we follow a saviour, but also that a lot of the values we have are shared with them.
"Any stories they may have heard from other people dissipate once they get to know people from the church."
The church said the concert in Avenham Park is their contribution to the Preston Guild 2012 celebrations.
"We see this as an integral part of what's going on in Guild Year," Dr Holt said.
"Because Preston is so synonymous with the church in the UK we just want to be involved as much as we can."
The concert will be addressed by LDS church leaders and will also feature a choir of church members from around the North West who will be singing well known Christian hymns.
Dr Holt said: "This will be a wonderful opportunity for the Mormons in Britain to remember their heritage and celebrate the history of the church on these islands.
"It will be a time to look back, a time to rejoice together as hymns are sung by the congregation and a large LDS choir.
"We shall also have the opportunity to enjoy the words of past and present church leaders.
"We want people from all over Lancashire to bring their blankets, bring their picnic baskets and join us in the park."

The League One leadership is at stake, with Smith's second-placed Saddlers three points behind Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink's pacesetters.
Smith told BBC WM: "Nobody would have predicted that would be a top of the table clash on international weekend."
Separated only by a 23-mile journey down the A38, any previous meetings between the two clubs would have been relatively non-competitive affairs, in the Staffordshire Senior Cup.
But this one is for real, Smith admitting: "We know that, if we win we go above them and that makes it even more exciting. Everybody knows it's the two top clubs at the moment in League One.
"It's a real tough one though. We know that. Jimmy's done tremendously well to get them up there and carry on the momentum through from when they won promotion last season."
Former Saddlers centre-half Smith is still hopeful that he can lead his home town club back to the Championship - but he is well aware that the more success he has with Walsall, the more likely he is to get offers to make it to a higher grade elsewhere, with other clubs.
That was the case when Championship strugglers Rotherham United asked to speak to him this week.
"There was an approach made," Smith told BBC WM. "But there's nothing I can say about it. It was turned down so I didn't even think about it.
"If any club is doing well, then you come under the radar of other clubs very quickly, whether it be manager, staff or players. We're doing well at the moment so other people will take notice of that."

Some reports suggest the death toll could be much higher. The epicentre was close to an area popular with tourists.
Sichuan province is prone to earthquakes. More than 70,000 people were killed in a quake in 2008.
The quake struck at around 21:20 (13:20 GMT) some 300km (180 miles) north of the provincial capital Chengdu, and was 10km deep.
Photos showed damage to buildings, including a hotel, in Jiuzhaigou, home to one of China's most famous nature reserves and a Unesco World Heritage site.
A restaurant owner in the town said this quake felt stronger than the 2008 tremor, though there is no suggestion yet that the death toll could reach anywhere near the levels caused by that disaster.
Tang Sesheng told the AFP news agency that many people had fled buildings in Jiuzhaigou county - which includes a national park - and were taking refuge in the main square.
"People didn't dare grab anything like money or clothes - we just all ran outside right away," she said.

Write a brief summary of the document. | Prison leaver Matthew Williams was found attacking Cerys Yemm, 22, at the Sirhowy Arms Hotel in Argoed on 6 November 2014.
Williams, 34, was Tasered by police who arrested him and he later died.
Gwent Coroner's Court in Newport heard PC Sion Jenkins was among five officers who tried to restrain Williams.
He told the inquest he was wearing the camera on his body armour as part of a trial by Gwent Police and its purpose was "to obtain the best evidence".
He agreed when questioned it was a "matter of regret" that he had not recorded the incident, adding he only received the camera three days earlier and had no training.
"I'd forgotten I was wearing it. I was going to the incident to deal with a violent man," he said.
The inquest heard Williams was already in handcuffs and was struggling when PC Jenkins arrived but he did not see a Taser used.
He said he attempted to hold down Williams' legs which had already been strapped together.
Another officer, Sgt Andrew Rees, told the inquest Williams was lying on his front and on top of his handcuffed arms.
He wanted to move Williams' arms behind his back because he was concerned about the impact the handcuffs had on his breathing but was advised against it.
Williams was lifted up and was breathing. A packet of white powder was found in his pocket.
Meanwhile, paramedic Paul Wyatt said Williams did not need immediate help but soon after his pulse and breathing deteriorated.
Mr Wyatt said Williams was taken to the ambulance where the colour had drained from him. He died in the back of the ambulance.
Sgt Rees said there was evidence of a violent struggle in the room with smashed porcelain and "some sort of ornament with a sharp protrusion on it".
He also told the jury he did not see a Taser used and it was not usual to discharge one while someone was handcuffed "but this was an extraordinary incident".
The jury also heard claims by Miss Yemm's barrister of a "confused scene" in the Gwent Police control room as the 999 caller was given conflicting advice.
Insp Karen Evans was in charge of the incident and told residents she could not advise them if they should enter the room but the chief inspector said not to go in.
She said: "I was balancing the safety of Miss Yemm with the residents. I didn't have eyes on the scene.

Give a brief overview of this passage. | Richard Carter from Yorkshire First said election broadcasts were an example of an out of date system.
The leader of Cornish party Mebyon Kernow called the rule which only grants TV airtime to parties standing in one in six constituencies "absurd".
A BBC spokesperson said the BBC Trust was reviewing the broadcasts.
A ComRes poll for the BBC in November found about 80% of people in England supported having more powers devolved to local areas.
Mr Carter said his party was considering contesting seats outside of Yorkshire to "demonstrate the absurd current situation".
He said: "Why should Yorkshire First have to stand in London, Lancashire and Cornwall to qualify? It is bizarre."
Mebyon Kernow, a party with four councillors in Cornwall and campaigning for a Cornish Assembly, has also called for a change to the rules.
Party leader Dick Cole said a national quota was "absurd", especially when greater devolution was being promised for English regions.
He said: "The party has requested the Broadcasters' Liaison Group agree that genuine 'regional' parties which stand candidates in a majority of the seats in a particular area be allowed an election broadcast."
The BBC spokesperson said: "The BBC Trust is currently holding a public consultation on the criteria for party election broadcasts at the general election.

Summarize the content given in the passage. | Turkey has said it arrested and deported Brahim el-Bakraoui last June, warning Belgium he was a "foreign fighter" - but was "ignored".
The Belgian interior and justice ministers said they had offered to resign over this but added that the prime minister refused to let them.
Tuesday's suicide attacks in Brussels killed 31 people and wounded some 300.
They have been claimed by so-called Islamic State.
In separate developments on Thursday:
Why Brussels warning signs were missed

What we know so far
Why was Brussels attacked?
Victims and survivors
Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that one of the Brussels attackers had been caught near Turkey's border with Syria in June 2015, and was deported, at his request, to the Netherlands.
Mr Erdogan said Turkey alerted both the Belgian and Dutch authorities, but "despite our warnings that this person was a foreign terrorist fighter, the Belgian authorities could not identify a link to terrorism".
Turkish officials later confirmed he had been talking about Brahim el-Bakraoui.
Dutch Justice Minister Ard Van der Steur on Thursday confirmed that Bakraoui had arrived from Turkey on 14 July 2015, but said he had a valid Belgian passport, was not on any wanted lists and so the Dutch authorities had no reason to detain him.
Belgian Justice Minister Koen Geens said he had been made aware of the deportation but told public broadcaster VRT: "At that time, he was not known here for terrorism. He was a common law criminal out on parole."
Interior Minister Jan Jambon said he understood why there were questions to be answered over why "we missed the chance to seize him when he was in Turkey".
"In the circumstances it was right to take political responsibility and I offered my resignation to the prime minister," Mr Jambon said.
But he added: "The prime minister and the inner cabinet requested clearly this morning that I stay on, given the current situation, that in a war situation you cannot leave the field."
Brahim el-Bakraoui is one of three men - pictured in the middle on a CCTV image of them - who carried out the bombings at Zaventem airport that killed 11 people.
Unconfirmed reports say another of the airport attackers was the wanted jihadist Najim Laachraoui, whose DNA was found on explosives linked to last year's attacks in Paris. The third suspected airport attacker has not been identified yet and is on the run.
Bakraoui's brother Khalid struck at Maelbeek metro station, where 20 people died.
There are reports of a second suspect being sought for that attack. One source told AFP news agency that a man with a large bag had been seen beside Khalid el-Bakraoui on surveillance footage at the metro station.
Meanwhile, VRT reports that investigators are working on the assumption that the cell had been planning a far bigger attack, involving Paris-style shootings as well as suicide bombings.
Link are emerging with Salah Abdeslam, a suspect in last November's Paris attacks in which 130 people died.
Abdeslam was arrested and wounded in a police raid on a flat in the Forest area of Brussels last Friday - four days before the attacks in the Belgian capital.
On Thursday, his lawyer said he had changed his mind and would not fight extradition from Belgium to France.
Abdeslam, a 26-year-old French national born in Belgium, did not have prior knowledge of the Brussels bombings and had stopped co-operating with police following the attacks, his lawyer Sven Mary said.
A court hearing on Thursday on the detention of Abdeslam and two other suspects has been postponed until 7 April.
The director of the EU's police agency, Europol, has told the BBC the network of jihadists in Europe is "more extensive than perhaps we first feared".
Robin Wainwright said there were concerns over "a community of 5,000 suspects that have been radicalised in Europe, that have travelled to Syria and Iraq for conflict experience, some of whom - not all - have since come back to Europe". | Belgium has admitted that it made "errors" relating to one of the Brussels attackers. |
Give a brief summary of the following article. | The ICO says nearly half of all app users have decided not to download an app because of concerns over privacy.
It wants developers to be clear about what data is being accessed and why.
More than 320 million apps were downloaded on the busiest day of last year, Christmas Day, and that number is expected to increase this year.
"The app industry is one of the fastest growing in the UK, but our survey shows almost half of people have rejected an app due to privacy concerns," said Simon Rice, principal policy adviser for technology at the ICO.
"It is important that developers tackle this issue by making sure their apps look after personal information correctly."
The guidance from the ICO reminds developers that they must comply with the Data Protection Act and that users must be properly informed about what will happen to their personal data if they install and use an app.
The ICO suggests that users should be given effective control over their privacy settings. Also the layout of a privacy policy could be better tailored to suit mobile devices with users shown brief but important information first, with the option to click through to another screen for more detail.
Adam Joinson, a professor at the University of the West of England who has researched the link between privacy and new technology, said apps that had a privacy policy that was too generic risked alienating users.
"By asking for too much information they're putting people off using the app. If developers were more canny they'd have fewer issues," he said.
"Users could say, 'I'm happy for an app to have access to my photos but not my address book,' for example."
App designers could be losing out financially because of unsuitable privacy policies which put people off using their products, said Mr Rice.
Simon Lee, chief executive of app development firm Locassa, said the company tailored its data privacy depending on what the app did.
"When we look at how the data is used, we must look at it from a user perspective and ask ourselves, 'Would I be happy with this?' If the answer isn't a resounding 'yes' then there's a strong indication we shouldn't be doing it," he said.
"The bottom line is that users trust us when they install our apps on their devices. We must be careful not to abuse that trust." | App developers should ensure they do not misuse customers' data, says the Information Commissioner's Office in new guidance. |

Jersey Police arrested Mr Le Gastelois in 1960 while hunting for a serial sex offender nicknamed the Beast of Jersey.
After 14 hours of questioning they found nothing to connect him to the attacks on women and children.
But his name was released to the press and he became the subject of a hate campaign in Jersey.
He was forced to flee to Ecrehous, a tiny reef between Jersey and France, and only returned when the real offender, Edward Paisnel, was caught and sentenced.
In 1999, the States agreed to pay Mr Le Gastelois £20,000 in compensation.
Jean Le Maistre was a States member at the time, and voted in favour of giving him the money.
He said: "I think there was a genuine concern of injustice that had been done and it was probably a token of support to redress the injustice.
"Whether the figure was right I'm not sure... for him it would have been a lot of money and it would have gone some way to say sorry on behalf of the community."
Mr Le Maistre added: "I think as time passes we tend to forget what the level of concern and fear was at that time.
"There were a number of stories circulating of how youngsters who had been assaulted in their bedrooms, with an individual breaking into the house without waking parents.
"This went on for years and this is why perhaps Alphonse had the finger pointed at him and the community were very quick to judge."

Robin Newton, from Keswick, spoke to the BBC on Sunday. He said he had had no supply of water all day.
"I live near to the River Greta. We have been flooded, but the majority of Keswick is out of water. The local fire station has been handing out bottles of water, but they have now run out. I walked a quarter of a mile away into town this morning - the devastation has been unbelievable. The river was a raging torrent, and it had breached all the new flood defences. At the back of my house, I can hear the roar of the river."
Ravi Uppoor lives close to the River Eden in Carlisle. He described how the river flowed over the flood defences on Sunday.
"About 15 houses near to my house are flooded. One of my neighbours, who is in her 90s, said she had never seen anything like this in the last 40 or 50 years. There is no power supply, no fire alarm or heating, so we have had to make alternative arrangements for our children. The rain was unprecedented. I grew up in India with a lot of flooding, but I have never seen anything like this."
John Chadwick was evacuated from his home in Carlisle on Saturday, as the River Caldew burst over the flood barriers.
"The waters were 2in [5cm] deep, and I got out by dinghy. I live alone and have severe mobility problems including osteoarthritis and mild epilepsy - I just had time to grab some medication. I have nowhere suitable to stay as I need ground-floor accommodation with disabled access. My friend drove near where I live, but he couldn't get through. I have nothing insured."

Issa Timamy was accused of involvement in two attacks which killed at least 60 people in the region in June.
The court rejected the prosecution's request for more time to investigate the case, and ordered the return of his bail bond.
Somalia's militant Islamist group al-Shabab said its fighters carried out the raids in Lamu.
However, Kenya's President Uhuru Kenyatta denied that al-Shabab was involved and blamed "local political networks" for the violence.
Mr Timamy, who always maintained his innocence, welcomed the ruling.
"There is no way I could attack my people," he said outside court, the AFP news agency reports.
The raids on Mpeketoni town and surrounding villages were the most deadly in Kenya since September 2013, when at least 67 people were killed by al-Shabab fighters at Nairobi's Westgate shopping centre.

It also proposed closing its depots in North Berwick and Musselburgh.
The bus firm said "operations in these areas have not been viable for a number of years".

Paul McGowan, managing director of First Scotland East, said: "I'm disappointed that we're proposing to withdraw from Musselburgh and North Berwick.
"We will today engage with the local authority on the future of bus services.
"However, given there are other bus operators that operate in and around the area, I'm confident if we decide to go ahead with these proposals the majority of our customers won't be left without a service.
"I am sorry that we are having to discuss the proposal to discontinue services and consider the possibility of redundancies.
"Unfortunately, we've incurred losses in East Lothian for years.
"Should the proposal be implemented this will allow us to concentrate our investment in West Lothian, the Borders and the Central Belt, improving our services for customers and growing our operations in those areas, helping protect jobs in the long term."
Alison Johnstone, Scottish Green MSP for Lothian, said: "The potential loss of these jobs is terrible news for the individuals and families concerned and for the wider East Lothian economy.
"Public transport needs radically improved in East Lothian with many local people dependent on buses and often overcrowded trains for work, healthcare and social journeys.
"Today's announcement shows the danger of leaving such a vital public service in the hands of private firms.

"He ran into someone at training, simple as that," said head coach Eddie Jones, who initially joked Farrell had collided with the Australian's dog.
"He's in doubt but we will see. He should be right."
Victory for England over Scotland would give the defending Six Nations champions a record-equalling 18th consecutive win and put them one win away from a second straight Grand Slam.
"It's the oldest international fixture and it means a lot to both countries," said Jones.
"I feel honoured and humbled to be part of such a historic occasion. I treasure the experience."
Number eight Billy Vunipola has been named on the bench against Scotland after making his comeback from a knee injury last weekend.
Nathan Hughes will continue in the position in an unchanged England pack.
The backline shows three changes, with scrum-half Ben Youngs, centre Jonathan Joseph and wing Jack Nowell returning.
Loose-head prop Joe Marler will lead the team out on his 50th cap, while fit-again wing Anthony Watson also returns to the matchday squad.
"I congratulate Joe," Jones added. "I've coached a lot of good players and he is certainly one of the best. He is an honest and committed team man and a fine individual."
On Vunipola, he explained: "He's one of our best players, but he's not ready to start yet."
England's replacements have repeatedly salvaged games so far in the Six Nations and Jones admits he is unsure why his side have yet to start well.
"If I knew, I would fix it," he said. "But we have been ahead in the 80th minute - and that's all that counts."
After the fitful display against Italy, Jones says England have prepared to deliver their best performance of the Championship against Scotland.
"We have varied [the preparation] up a bit, we have changed the way we have trained considerably," he said.
"The intensity of training has improved, we are moving towards our best performance. We are in excellent condition."

Brownlee, whose brother Alistair is injured, clocked one hour 55 minutes 26 seconds to beat Spanish defending champion Javier Gomez by 15 seconds.
"It was great to win," said Brownlee. "It's the first time I've won a World Series event for a while."
Lucy Hall, in 17th, was the highest-placed Briton in the women's event, which was won by USA's Gwen Jorgensen.
It was a record seventh straight World Triathlon Series victory for 28-year-old Jorgensen.
Her compatriot Katie Zaferes was second, with New Zealand's Andrea Hewitt third.
Ireland's Aileen Reid finished 15th, while Britain's Jessica Learmonth pulled out on the bike leg.
British Triathlon performance director Brendan Purcell said: "Jess has been unwell, it was touch and go whether she was going to race, so it was good to see her swim and bike well until she had a mechanical problem."
Both races featured a 1,500m swim, 43.2km bike and 10km run.
Brownlee, 24, looked strong throughout the men's race as he improved on his fifth place at the season-opener in Abu Dhabi on 7 March.
"I made mistakes in Abu Dhabi and have been beating myself up about it since," he said. "I wanted to show how fit I was.
"I've been practising running hard off a fast bike. I was a bit cleverer on the bike and maybe I'm a bit fitter than I was at the start of the year.
"I felt very good, the swim was great, with the bike I didn't want to do anything silly and on the run I was surprised, I had a gap which I didn't expect, it shows how hard the bike was.
"It's great to have an honest course where you can use your strength. I swim 10 hours a week, I bike 20 hours a week and I want to be able to show that."
Thomas Bishop, in 13th, was the next Briton home after Brownlee, with Ireland's Bryan Keane and Conor Murphy in 42nd and 48th respectively.
Britons Phillip Graves and Grant Sheldon did not finish.

What is a brief summary of the information below? | There are no other known surviving examples of these two pages anywhere in the world, from a book believed to have been printed in London in the 1470s.
The pages had been "under their noses" unrecognised in the library's archives.
Erika Delbecque, special collections librarian at the university, described the find as "incredibly rare".
The two pages, with religious texts in medieval Latin, were produced by Caxton at his pioneering printing works in Westminster - and are now going on public display for the first time since they were sold from his print shop in the 15th Century.
They are believed to be from the earliest years of Caxton's printing press, either 1476 or 1477, and are being hailed as a remarkable discovery.
The only other pages from this book known to be in existence are eight leaves held by the British Library.
An early printing specialist, Andrew Hunter, of Blackwells Books, said that in the world of rare books, a find like this has a "special, almost magic, resonance".
But the leaf of paper, printed on both sides, has not always been treated with such reverence.
"The leaf had previously been pasted into another book for the undignified purpose of reinforcing its spine," says librarian Ms Delbeque, who first recognised the pages' significance.
"We understand it was rescued by a librarian at the University of Cambridge in 1820, who had no idea that it was an original Caxton leaf."
The pages have been owned by the University of Reading since 1997, bought as part of a bigger collection of manuscripts and books with the help of a lottery grant.
But they had not been recognised as Caxton's work until Ms Delbeque was cataloguing a collection of loose pages which had been detached from their original books.
"I suspected it was special as soon as I saw it. The trademark black letter typeface, layout and red paragraph marks indicate it is very early Western European printing," she said.
"It is astonishing that it has been under our noses for so long."
They are of great significance to scholars and book experts and are expected to have a financial value in excess of £100,000.
Caxton expert and former deputy keeper at the British Library, Dr Lotte Hellinga, said that it was a very rare event for a piece of printing by Caxton to be found.
"Its condition is good, considering that it spent some 300 years bound in the spine of a book and another 200 resting forgotten in an album of fragments rescued from other bindings," said Dr Hellinga.
The pages are from a book called the Sarum Ordinal, which was a handbook for priests with details of feast days of English saints.
The text had been written in the 11th Century and copied in the form of hand-written manuscripts.
But the arrival of printing meant that the book could be reproduced much more readily and cheaply - and it is believed that there might have been hundreds of copies produced by Caxton's press.
This copy also shows how books were in a transition from manuscripts to printing - as the red marks on the page, showing paragraph breaks, were added by hand after printing.
But the Sarum Ordinal also has another claim to fame. It was the subject of the first ever recorded book advert. Caxton was an entrepreneur as well as innovator and printed his own adverts urging people to call into his printing shop to buy their own copy.
The pages will go on public display from 10 to 30 May at the Museum of English Rural Life at the University of Reading.
The occasion planned for Church Street would form part of Highland Council's efforts to support a Scottish government children's play strategy.
In a report to councillors, council officers have set out progress and also further plans to provide youngsters with opportunities to play.

Write a concise summary of the provided excerpt. | Wales Office minister Guto Bebb announced plans for the meeting at the Royal Welsh Show on Tuesday.
Decent mobile connectivity is "vital" for small rural firms to develop and grow their business, he said.
The Welsh Government said it "regularly" meets with mobile phone operators to discuss issues.
The summit is expected to include representatives from farmers' unions, landowners, councils and the country's four mobile operators.
Mr Bebb told an Ofcom reception at the Royal Welsh Show more than a quarter of a million people in Wales work for small or medium-sized firms that need good broadband and mobile phone reception to make a living.
"It is vital for small and medium-size companies and home-based enterprises to develop and grow their business in the rural Welsh economy," he said.
"We now rightfully expect our mobile devices to work reliably wherever we are, be it at home, at work, in a car, or in the fields of Powys.
"That's why, building on the discussions at this event, we will convene a summit with Ofcom, the mobile network operators and other key stakeholders to formally consider the issues surrounding poor mobile connectivity in Wales."
Mr Bebb also reiterated calls, made by Welsh Secretary Alun Cairns earlier this year, for planning restrictions on masts in Wales to be relaxed as they have been in England.
Earlier this year, the former Chancellor George Osborne announced revised planning restrictions which would allow masts up to 25m (82ft) to be built in England without planning permission.
Mr Bebb said: "I want Wales to be in a position where operators find it at least as easy as England to invest."
A Welsh Government spokesman said: "Officials regularly meet with mobile phone operators to discuss telecommunications issues, including those related to the current permitted development rights for telephone masts.
"We are currently considering our options to ensure we have the right regulatory approach for Wales." | Mobile phone operators, farmers' leaders and rural councils will take part in a summit this autumn to discuss poor signal coverage in Wales. |
Give a concise summary of the passage below. | The software - called Sketch-a-Net - correctly identified a sample of hand drawings 74.9% of the time compared with the volunteers' score of 73.1%.
It has been developed by researchers in London, who suggested their program could be adapted to help police match drawings of suspects to mug shots.
However, one computing expert said a lot more work still needed to be done.
Previous sketch-recognition efforts have examined drawings as finished works from which specific features are extracted and then classified, much in the same way they analyse photos.
However, Sketch-a-Net makes use of information about the order the hand strokes were made in.
When computer equipment is used to create a drawing, the resulting data includes information about when each line was made as well as where - and the team, from Queen Mary University, took advantage of this additional information.
"Normal computer vision image recognition just looks at all of the pixels in parallel, but there is some additional information offered by the sequence [of the lines]," said Dr Timothy Hospedales, from the university's computer science department.
"And there is some regularity in how people do it."
For example, in the case of an alarm clock, he told the BBC, people usually started by drawing the device's outline before adding in the hands and then finally creating dashes to represent the hours.
"Different shapes have different ordering - and that's what the network learns to discover," "Dr Hospedales added.
The drawings involved in the test were sourced from a collection of 20,000 sketches known as the TU-Berlin dataset, which has been used in previous image-recognition tasks.
When analysing the image library, Sketch-a-Net appeared to have a particular edge at determining some of the drawings' finer details.
So, for example, it was able to better able to match drawings of birds to the descriptions "seagull". "flying-bird", "standing-bird" and "pigeon" than the humans were.
The AI software achieved a 42.5% accuracy score at that specific task, compared with the volunteer's 24.8%.
"It's been described as being like trying to solve the game Pictionary, which I thought was a nice explanation," Dr Hospedales said.
"At the moment all we are claiming is that we can recognise the sketches, on average, a bit better than humans.
"But in the future this could feed into work being done here on sketch-based face-recognition for police.
"And the other area of interest is sketch-based image retrieval.
"Imagine trying to search for a specific piece of Ikea furniture- that's hard to do with keywords and the difficult-to-remember names Ikea uses.
"But if you could draw the shape of the table or chair or whatever as a sketch and retrieve the category of the furniture that looks the same, that could be useful."
Prof Alan Woodward, from the University of Surrey's computing department, described the research as "promising" but said it could be some time before its potential would be realised.
"Neural nets have proven highly successful in the past as the foundation for recognition and classification systems," he said.
"However, this latest application is obviously at an early stage and quite a lot of development and testing will be needed before we see it emerge in a real-world application.
"But I think it is one of many areas in which we'll see people using AI to improve on human abilities."
The peer-review study will be discussed further at the British Machine Vision Conference in September. | An artificial intelligence system has beaten humans at a sketch-recognition task. |
Please provide a short summary of this passage. | But Mr Iordache, who had drawn up the bill, insisted that "all that I've done was legal".
Bowing to pressure, the government last week scrapped the decree that would have shielded many politicians from prosecution for corruption.
However, some protesters want the entire leftist cabinet to quit.
Earlier this week President Klaus Iohannis warned parliament that "the resignation of a minister will not be enough".
The demonstrations - attracting hundreds of thousands of people - have been the country's largest since the fall of communism in 1989.
The controversial bill had been due to come into effect on 10 February.
The justice ministry has been instructed to draft a new law to tackle the issues raised by the original decree, and to initiate a wide public debate.
Strategic retreat or surrender for government?
Romania's controversial anti-corruption star
The original decree would have decriminalised abuse of power offences where sums of less than €44,000 (£38,000; $47,500) were involved.
The constitutional court has still to rule on the bill's legality.
One immediate beneficiary would have been Liviu Dragnea, head of the governing Social Democrats (PSD), who faces charges of defrauding the state of €24,000.
The government had earlier argued that the changes were needed to reduce prison overcrowding and align certain laws with the constitution.
But critics saw it as a way for the PSD to absolve officials convicted or accused of corruption.
Sides drawing 2-2 away win the overall tie 79.4% of the time in Europe, and a 1-1 draw at Etihad Stadium next Tuesday would see Pellegrini's side go through.
"No, we're not favourites. Not before this game and not after," he said.
"Between big teams you never have a favourite. It will still be open."
City took the lead against the French champions through Kevin de Bruyne, but went 2-1 down as Zlatan Ibrahimovic - who also missed a penalty - capitalised on Fernando's error, before Adrien Rabiot scored at the back post.

"We must not talk about a semi-final," said Pellegrini, 62, who will be succeeded by Bayern Munich boss Pep Guardiola in the summer.
"We must play the second leg not thinking we are already qualified. When we qualify, we can talk about other things."

De Bruyne has now scored in both of his games since returning from a two-month injury lay-off, after netting in Saturday's 4-0 win over Bournemouth.
"Sometimes one player can change a team. He was important before his injury and thankfully he returned the same way," said Pellegrini.
It was an eventful night for PSG striker Ibrahimovic, 34, who had a penalty saved by Joe Hart, missed a one-on-one opportunity and also struck the crossbar.
But the Swede's goal means he has scored in five consecutive Champions League games for the third time in his career.
"Zlatan was really on a rollercoaster - he missed a penalty and then had a really clear chance and didn't score," said PSG boss Laurent Blanc.
"We thought it wasn't his evening but he kept on believing and scored."
Former France manager Blanc is confident his side can trouble City in the second leg.

Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini said his side are not favourites to progress despite a 2-2 draw away to Paris St-Germain in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final. |
Give a concise summary of the passage below. | Newly promoted Watford's rise to seventh place under manager Quique Flores and Bournemouth's victories over Chelsea and Manchester United in their last two games have made this term a tale of the unexpected.
And with no-one grabbing the title race by the scruff of of the neck, it seems impossible to predict the unpredictable. So here goes...
Chelsea were my pre-season picks - and no-one can surely have predicted the alarming decline that has left them a point off the relegation zone in 16th place after Monday's 2-1 loss at Leicester City.
Just seven months on from winning his third title at Chelsea, then putting his name to a new four-year contract, Jose Mourinho is left fighting for his job, pleading to stay on and put right what has gone wrong.
So no title for Chelsea this season and despite being the undisputed team of the season in the opening months of the campaign, it is too much of a stretch to imagine Claudio Ranieri's Leicester upsetting all odds and winning the league.
This leaves the title, realistically, as a battle between Manchester City, twice champions in recent seasons, and Arsenal, as they chase their first Premier League crown since 2004.
With City showing inconsistency, Arsenal and boss Arsene Wenger will never have a better chance to relieve the pressure and criticism that has built up in those barren Premier League years. If the Gunners do not win the league this season, it will be a desperate missed opportunity.
The question is can they be trusted when the pressure is on?
History suggests they can be fragile at those pinch points while City, if they can get Sergio Aguero, Vincent Kompany and David Silva up and running for long periods, should surely have enough.
The heart says Wenger's principles will finally prevail. The head says City will (and should) possess enough quality to win their third Premier League title in the past five seasons.
In 23 previous Premier League terms, the team that has been top after 16 games has finished on top 14 times. What will history say this season? Leicester will want to find out.
Champions: Manchester City
Ranieri's side are the story of the Premier League season so far - in tandem with the history-making feats of striker Jamie Vardy after he set a new record of scoring in 11 straight Premier League games.
And here it is time to enter the confessional and add an apology at the same time. I felt Ranieri's appointment was a poor one and would result in Leicester's relegation. I could not have been more wrong.
Even their most ardent fan will be pushed to predict a title win, but this team has shown enough to suggest it is enjoying the ride and is on board for the long haul.
If reality suggests Leicester will not end up as champions, despite the best start to a top-flight season in their 131-year history, can they maintain their excellence long enough to claim an unlikely Champions League place?
Again, and this is not a slight on Leicester, they face a hard battle to do so.
The two players who Ranieri describes as "the pinnacle of the iceberg", Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy, must avoid injury - and the January predators have already been told to keep away - while the Italian must decide whether to rotate his squad and make additions in January.
"The Tinkerman" of old has shredded the reputation earned in his Chelsea days, making just 13 Premier League changes this season, the same as that other surprise package, Watford.
Leicester play with such an intense, high-energy style that may tell on them later in the season and this is where the added depth of the likes of Tottenham, or even Liverpool and Everton, may come into play.
So it is with a heavy heart that the prediction is for Leicester City to finish outside the top four - but right in contention for the European places, which would still rank as a magnificent achievement.
Top four: Manchester City, Arsenal, Manchester United and Tottenham.

Not anywhere near the top four or arguably even the top 10 on any of the evidence presented this season - and it is hard to see them beating Paris St-Germain in the Champions League if they remain mired in such mediocrity.
Whether Mourinho survives deep into the season is another matter, while all logic says the talent in the squad must surely start giving performances in line with their ability sooner or later.
The joke about who was the last team to win the title one season then get relegated the next will raise a few belly laughs, but it is unlikely Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich will be amused.
Chelsea have two home games coming up against Sunderland and Watford but Stamford Bridge is no longer a guarantee and they are followed by visits to Manchester United and Crystal Palace. Who would back them with confidence there?
There have been 96 Premier League teams who have gained 15 points or fewer from their opening 16 games. Fifty ended up being relegated and the average position of those 96 teams was 17th, with only two finishing in the top half - Palace last season (10th) and Fulham (8th in 2010-11).
Chelsea still have to visit Arsenal and Liverpool and the old aura has gone. They might scrape into the top 10 at a push but you would not predict European football next season with any assurance. A shocking fall from grace.
Aston Villa look like they will be taking one of those places with the appointment of Remi Garde to replace Tim Sherwood the catalyst for a flop rather than a bounce.
Years of flirting with relegation look like becoming a full-blown embrace. The team have no goals, no confidence and six points from 16 games. A pathetic return as Villa are locked on course to pay the price for years of mediocrity.
Norwich City also look in trouble, despite battling draws at home to Arsenal and Everton recently. The Canaries have superb support but a lack of Premier League quality could be their undoing.
Newcastle United's revival with wins at home to Liverpool and away to Spurs has lifted the spirits on Tyneside but a home defeat by Watford has got the alarm bells ringing at Sunderland.
Sam Allardyce is an expert in this sort of situation but as the likes of Bournemouth become more accomplished, so the Black Cats look in even more danger.
Relegated: Aston Villa, Sunderland and Norwich City - with apologies to Watford and Leicester City, who I predicted would go down in August.
The usual suspect is Manchester City's Sergio Aguero - but injuries this season have allowed Leicester City's Vardy and Everton's Romelu Lukaku to lead the way with 15 and 12 Premier League goals respectively.
Vardy's pace and movement have been allied to composure as a finisher, while 22-year-old Lukaku is now making Chelsea and Mourinho regret parting with him in a £28m deal in summer 2014. He is a potent mixture of power, pace and huge potential.
The Leicester striker is getting chances every game, helped by the brilliant Riyad Mahrez, while Lukaku is being served goals on a plate by the precocious Gerard Deulofeu.
If Vardy can stay fit and Leicester's momentum continues, he can continue his golden run to be top scorer - but Lukaku will run him close.
Top scorer: Jamie Vardy
Manchester City - then it is a question of just how far Manuel Pellegrini's side can go in the Champions League, a tournament that has tormented them.
Topping their group finally gave them a favourable last-16 draw against Dynamo Kiev, while Arsenal and Chelsea suffered a tougher fate as they were paired with Barcelona and PSG.
On current form, despite Arsenal's excellence on occasions this season, it is impossible to make a compelling case for either of the London sides to go through.
Manchester City will make the last eight - and may well be last men standing in the Champions League as far as England's elite is concerned. | The collapse of champions Chelsea and the sight of Leicester City bucking all trends to top the table illustrates the unpredictability that has been the Premier League's hallmark this season. |
Give a brief overview of this passage. | The precautionary measure focuses on cladding at the buildings owned and managed by Liberty Living, the Labour MP for Wolverhampton North East Emma Reynolds said.
A total of 70 students from the University of Wolverhampton were being moved, the firm said.
It said the move was a "precautionary measure".
See more stories from across Birmingham and the Black Country here
Ms Reynolds said it had been discovered that cladding on two student blocks in Heath Town was a type of aluminium composite material which may be flammable.
She said: "I welcome the announcement that students resident in the two blocks in question will be moved out as soon as possible as a precaution.
"This is while consideration is given as to how to make the two blocks in question fire safe.
"I am however very concerned that student accommodation may have been clad in flammable substances."
Ms Reynolds added she would be calling for a full investigation.
A Liberty Living spokesperson said: "As a precaution we are moving students from blocks B and C to nearby accommodation. Remedial work will begin on the properties as soon as practicable. We will keep everyone fully informed of developments."

Give a short summary of the provided document. | The delegation led by Ahmed Moaz al-Khatib, who has said he will resign as head of the coalition, was applauded as it formally assumed the seat.
Mr Khatib called it "part of the restoration of legitimacy" of which Syrians had "long been robbed".
Later, the Arab League authorised member states to give military support to Syrian rebel groups.
A resolution said the summit affirmed the "right of every state to offer all forms of self-defence, including military, to support the resistance of the Syrian people and the Free Syrian Army".
Meanwhile, Syrian state media reported that three people had been killed and several others wounded in a suicide car bombing in the northern Rukn al-Din district of Damascus.
Shells were also said to have landed in the centre of the capital.
In the city of Homs, government troops were reported to have seized back control of the hotly-contested district of Baba Amr after two weeks of fighting.
And at least 13 burned bodies were found in the village of Abel, just outside Homs, said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a UK-based activist group.
In another development on Tuesday, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said Swedish scientist Ake Sellstrom would head a UN mission investigating the alleged use of chemical weapons in Syria.
The Syrian government and rebels accused each other of firing a rocket containing poison gas at a village near the city of Aleppo earlier this month.
The BBC's Jim Muir in Beirut says Syria's opposition won an important diplomatic victory when it took over the country's seat at the Arab League summit in Doha.
Mr Khatib was joined by the National Coalition's vice-presidents, George Sabra and Suheir Atassi, and its recently-elected interim prime minister, Ghassan Hitto.
The Syrian flag was replaced at the country's official seat with the green, white and black flag of the former Syrian Republic, which existed before the Baath Party and the Assad family came to power, and is used by the opposition.
The move angered the government in Damascus, which accused the Arab League of handing the seat to "bandits and thugs".
Mr Khatib gave an impassioned speech in the name of the 100,000 people he said had given their lives in the struggle so far, and the many others who have been wounded, tortured or imprisoned.
"I convey to you the greetings of the orphans, widows, the wounded, the detained and the homeless," he said.
He rejected attempts by some outside powers to control Syrian decisions, saying the country's future would be decided by the Syrian people alone.
And he also rejected all the reasons advanced by Western powers and others for the reluctance to provide the Syrian opposition with the means to defend the people because of concerns about arming foreign Islamist fighters.
"I don't know if the real issue has to do with whether he's a foreigner or he has a beard," he remarked.
Mr Khatib also said he had asked the US Secretary of State, John Kerry, to establish a defensive Patriot missile shield over northern Syria to protect people and allow refugees to return home.
He said he was awaiting a response from Nato on the issue. It was not long in coming, our correspondent adds, with officials repeating their position that the alliance had no intention of intervening militarily in Syria.
The National Council's seat at the Arab League comes at a time of disarray within its top ranks.
Ahmed Moaz al-Khatib - seen as a respected and unifying figure in Syria - announced his resignation on Sunday, a move so far rejected by the coalition.
He said he had promised to resign if certain "red lines" were reached. Although he did not specify what those red lines were, he did accuse world powers of failing to adequately protect the Syrian people.
But analysts say Mr Khatib is also concerned by the influence of Islamists and foreign powers like Qatar in the opposition coalition.
And his resignation came days after Mr Hitto, a US-based Islamist, was elected by the opposition to be prime minister of an alternative administration that could govern rebel-held areas from inside Syria.
Mr Khatib considered the move premature, and observers say he may have feared the move would further distance the exiled opposition leadership from what is going on inside Syria. | Syria's opposition National Coalition has taken the country's official seat at the Arab League summit in Qatar. |
Summarize the provided section. | Dylann Roof, 21, already faced nine counts of murder and one weapons possession charge for the shooting in Charleston, South Carolina, on 17 June.
The victims were shot and killed after a Bible study meeting.
The attempted murder charges relate to three people who were present during the attack but survived.
A woman and a small child survived by playing dead. Mr Roof left a third woman alive to tell others about the crime.
Governor Nikki Haley has said Mr Roof should face the death penalty.
Mr Roof reportedly sat with the group for nearly an hour before he pulled out his handgun and started shooting.
One survivor recalled him saying: "You all rape women and you're taking over our country."
After the attack, a friend of Mr Roof's said he had previously complained that "blacks were taking over the world" and "someone needed to do something about it for the white race".
Mr Roof was arrested the day after the shooting more than 200 miles away in North Carolina and then flown back to Charleston.
He is next expected in court in October.

Wales saw off South Africa by 27-13 to make it three wins out of four in the series for the first time since 2002.
"We targeted three or four games and we've reached our target," said Howley.
"We are very pleased. The players have given everything, their training's gone really well. It's nice to transfer what we've done in training into the final game."
Wales have faced criticism for their performances in the Autumn series but Howley had nothing but praise for his players.
"I'm just delighted for the players, The effort and attitude they have shown over the past five weeks has been brilliant.
"They've rounded it off with a good win today," Howley told BBC Radio Wales Sport.
Howley admitted there had been a lack of discipline as Wales almost let South Africa back into the match.
"At 20-6 we were looking for the next score. Unfortunately we lacked discipline in the last 20 odd minutes," Howley explained.
"We gave them field position. We gave them opportunities and when you give South Africa opportunities in your white zone, in the 22, they've got a great driving game.
"And we conceded that score which was disappointing, but overall I'm really pleased."
After an autumn in which they were heavily criticised for a heavy defeat by Australia and narrow wins over Argentina and Japan, Howley wants Wales to rise to the "next level" in the 2017 Six Nations.
He said: "If everyone could see the hard work and endeavour and the attitude the players have given in terms of training over the last five weeks, we would win every game.
"The transfer from training, for whatever reason, has not been to the standard that we all expected. That was the challenge against South Africa.
"I thought we were comfortable and were able to stretch South Africa more times than they were able to stretch us.
"There is another level in us. I thought we beat South Africa quite comfortably.
Howley himself had come under intense scrutiny for the quality of his side's performances recently, but he shrugged off the personal criticism.
"I don't read or listen to it, but I've got a fantastic media manager who tells me what's out there," added Howley.
"It is just about stickling to your systems and trusting in the bubble you are in."
Reacting to South Africa's latest defeat, head coach Allister Coetzee said: "First of all, I think it is a very difficult time for us as management, staff and players.
"I think we live in a country where results are important for the national team, and I am definitely not proud about the way the season has gone.
"But maybe in hindsight, if you look at this year, it's not ideal, way below what is expected of the Springbok team - but hopefully the start of a greater time and place to get South African rugby back on track again." | Wales head coach Rob Howley insisted he is satisfied with Wales' autumn international campaign. |
Summarize the provided section. | The creation of a single file can stop the attack from infecting a machine.
However, researchers have not been able to find a so-called kill switch that would prevent the crippling ransomware from spreading to other vulnerable computers.
Experts are still unsure about the attack's origins or its real purpose.
Given that the ransom amount - $300 - was relatively small, some are speculating that the attack may be a front for causing wider disruption or making a political statement.
Among the victims of the attack were the Ukrainian central bank, Russian oil giant Rosneft, British advertising firm WPP and the global law firm DLA Piper.
Also caught up in the attack was at least one hospital in the US city of Pittsburgh.
But for those concerned about the attack there appears to be fix, albeit one with limited effectiveness.
By creating a read-only file - named perfc - and placing it within a computer's "C:\Windows" folder, the attack will be stopped in its tracks.
An explanation of how to do this has been posted by security news website Bleeping Computer and has been backed up by several other security experts.
However, while this method is effective, it only protects the individual computer the perfc file is placed on. Researchers have so far been unable to locate a kill switch that would disable the ransomware attack entirely.
"Even though it will make a machine 'immune'," explained computer scientist Prof Alan Woodward, "It is still a 'carrier' (to use the biological analogy).
"It will still act as a platform to spread the ransomware to other machines on the same network."
For the vast majority of users, simply running an up-to-date version of Windows will be sufficient to prevent the attack taking hold, were it to infect your PC.
The spread of this new ransomware is likely to be much slower than last month's WannaCry attack, researchers predict, as code analysis showed the new attack did not attempt to spread itself beyond the network it was placed on.
Because of this, several experts are predicting that the attack will not spread significantly further than it did on Tuesday, unless it is modified.
"There is low risk of new infections more than one hour after the attack," suggested the MalwareTech blog.
So how did it spread? Experts from Cisco's Talos intelligence unit said it believed the attack may have been carried out by exploiting vulnerable accounting software.
"We believe it is possible that some infections may be associated with software update systems for a Ukrainian tax accounting package called MeDoc," the company said in a blog post.
MeDoc initially posted an update to its website on Tuesday saying, in Russian, "Attention! Our server made a virus attack" - though this was later removed, and the company has since denied its software was exploited.
As reported on Tuesday, the method by which victims can pay the ransom fee has been rendered useless. An email address provided by the criminals has been shut down by the hosting provider, while the Bitcoin wallet - where ransoms are deposited - has not been touched.
At the time of writing, the wallet contains approximately $8,000-worth of Bitcoin, not a large return for such a significant and widespread attack.
These factors contribute to a now-prevailing theory that this was a politically motivated attack on Ukraine, coming as it did just as the country is set to celebrate its Constitution Day.
"This looks like a sophisticated attack aimed at generating chaos, not money," said Prof Woodward.

Can you summarize this content? | About 300,000 people had gathered for Eid prayers at the Sholakia field in Kishoreganj district when the attack on a security checkpoint began.
Police say four people, including two officers and one attacker, were killed.
Last week, militants stormed the Holey Artisan Bakery cafe in Dhaka, killing at least 20, most of them foreigners.
That attack was claimed by so-called Islamic State (IS), although the government said the attackers belonged to a local militant group.
No group has said it carried out Thursday's attack.
Eyewitnesses said four militants had used machetes and guns to attack police.
The imam leading prayers at the Sholakia field had recently issued a decree against killing in the name of Islam.
After the attack, he told journalists: "The young men who think they will go to heaven [by carrying out attacks] are wrong. They will go straight to hell."
Information Minister Hasanul Haq Inu told the BBC Bengali service that the high level of preparedness of security forces had prevented an attack on the prayer congregation.
"We have been able to either capture or destroy most of the terrorists," he said.
Police were investigating the attack and did not rule out "IS, al-Qaeda, or the Taliban" as possible groups, "but we still do not have any evidence to suggest that Bangladeshi militants have any organisational link with foreign groups," he added.
There have been security fears in Dhaka following last Friday's attack on the cafe.
There were tight checks at some Eid services in the capital, with scanners and sniffer dogs used to check for bombs before worshippers could enter, AFP reported.
Many people could be seen weeping during the services, while a local cleric issued a prayer to "protect our children from the evils of terrorism", AFP added.
Bangladesh has also seen a spate of attacks on secular bloggers, gay activists, academics and members of religious minorities, with more than 40 killed since February 2013.
Many of those attacks were claimed by Islamic State militants or al-Qaeda affiliates, although the government has blamed local groups and the opposition instead. The opposition denies the claims.
Speaking on Thursday, Hasanul Haq Inu told the BBC that recent attacks were "isolated incidents through which some youngsters are taking the wrong path".
"Militant terrorism is not a trend in Bangladesh, it is still not a trend," he said. | Militants have attacked police guarding the largest Eid gathering in Bangladesh, throwing homemade bombs and launching a gun attack. |
Summarize the following piece. | Campaigners want the statue torn down, arguing that Rhodes, a 19th Century businessman and politician in southern Africa, represented white supremacy.
They have described Oriel College's decision as "outrageous, dishonest and cynical" and have vowed to fight it.
The college began a consultation last month and said the "overwhelming" response was that Rhodes should stay.
It said the statue was a reminder of the complexity of history and of the legacies of colonialism.
In a statement, campaign group Rhodes Must Fall said: "This recent move is outrageous, dishonest, and cynical.
"This is not over. We will be redoubling our efforts and meeting over the weekend to discuss our next actions."
The decision by the college comes after the Oxford Union debating society voted by 245 to 212 earlier this month for the statue to be removed.
The Rhodes Must Fall campaign began in South Africa, where a Rhodes statue was removed, and was adopted in Oxford by campaigners who argued his views were incompatible with an "inclusive culture" at the university.
In a statement, Oriel College said it had received an "enormous amount of input" from students, academics and other individuals and groups during its consultation.
The college said after "careful consideration" it had decided the statue should remain but it would add "a clear historical context to explain why it is there".
The statement continued: "The college believes the recent debate has underlined that the continuing presence of these historical artefacts is an important reminder of the complexity of history and of the legacies of colonialism still felt today.
"By adding context, we can help draw attention to this history, do justice to the complexity of the debate, and be true to our educational mission."
Why is Cecil Rhodes such a controversial figure?
The Daily Telegraph reported the decision to keep the statue had been made after donors threatened to withdraw gifts and bequests worth more than £100m if it was taken down.
The paper said it had seen a leaked copy of a report that disclosed that wealthy alumni angered by the "shame and embarrassment" brought on the 690-year-old college by its own actions had written it out of their wills.
In its statement, which did not directly address these claims, Oriel College added that the campaign to remove the statue "highlighted other challenges in relation to the experience and representation of black and minority ethnic students and staff at Oxford".
The college said it would be taking "substantive steps" to address these challenges.
Rhodes was a student at Oxford and a member of Oriel College in the 1870s. He left money to the college on his death in 1902.
A scholarship programme in his name has so far been awarded to more than 8,000 overseas students. | A college at Oxford University says it has decided not to remove a statue of the British imperialist Cecil Rhodes. |
Please summarize the passage below. | Theresa May was speaking at a cross-party debate in Maidenhead where she is standing for re-election as MP.
Her comments go against the force's crime commissioner and fellow Tory Anthony Stansfeld, who said the force could not afford another budget slash.
She said despite cuts, crime had fallen by about 30% in five years in the area.
The force saved £58m in the past five years and needs to save a further £45m.
Mrs May said: "Here in the Thames Valley, crime has fallen by around 30% over the last five years; that is the highest fall of any police force of England and Wales.
"It is thanks to the hard work of police officers and staff that crime has fallen that way here in the Thames Valley. There is no direct link between the number of officers and the rate of crime. What matters is actually how you deploy those officers."
Maidenhead's Labour candidate Charles Smith said Labour would strive to "protect some of the frontline policing by getting rid of the disastrous role of police and crime commissioners" and forces sharing services such as procurement.
UKIP candidate Herbie Crossman said he was astonished at the idea of cutting police budgets in an "expanding nation".
He said: "We've got more problems coming from other countries now wanting to do certain damage to our nation, so how can you cut down on our police force?"
Lib Dem candidate Tony Hill said his party had a more "compassionate" view:
"One of the best ways is to stop banging so many people up in jail, and bringing in more systems of restorative justice."
The Green Party said its candidate, Emily Blyth, was not able to attend the debate.
Mr Kenny and Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin met for more than an hour on Wednesday night.
It was the first time discussions between their respective parties took place on cooperation in government.
However, a senior member of Fianna Fáil says he believes the coalition offer will be rejected by the party.
Willie O'Dea told RTÉ that people voted to "get rid of Enda Kenny as taoiseach" and not for Fianna Fáil to share "Mercs and perks" with Fine Gael.
Earlier, Fine Gael's Simon Coveney told RTÉ his party's offer of sharing power with Fianna Fáil is a "genuine, real offer".
He added that it was in the "best interests of the country for the two large parties to come together".
Irish politicians have been attempting to form a working government since the general election in February.
Following the February election to the Dáil, Fine Gael has 50 seats, Fianna Fáil 44, Sinn Féin 23 and the Labour Party got seven. | Thames Valley Police could cope with more cuts as one of the most successful forces in Britain, the Home Secretary has said.

It comes after bomb attacks in Brussels left 31 people dead. Some 260 people were injured, including four Britons.
Another Briton, David Dixon, from Nottingham, is missing.
The IT programmer, who lives in the Belgian capital with his partner and son, went to work on the metro, but his family have not heard from him since.
Of the injured Britons, three, all men, remain in hospital, while the fourth, a woman, has been discharged.
Twin blasts hit the city's Zaventem airport at about 07:00 GMT on Tuesday. Another explosion at Maelbeek metro station near EU headquarters happened an hour later.
Two of the men who carried out suicide attacks have been named as the brothers Khalid and Brahim el-Bakraoui. IS has claimed it was behind the bombings.

'Desperate' search for missing Briton
Eleven people died at Brussels airport and 20 at the Maelbeek metro.
Updating the House of Commons following the attacks, Mrs May said:
Mrs May said the decision to tighten security was not "in response to specific intelligence", but she said the UK must remain "vigilant".
"The police and security services will continue in their dedication to keeping people safe and the public should remain alert."
She continued: "Together with our allies around the world we must act with greater urgency and joint resolve than we have before."
Shadow home secretary Andy Burnham said: "This is the moment not for division but for maximum unity amongst peoples of all faiths and none."
He raised concerns about resources for UK Border Force, which he said had endured "years of cuts and is already stretched to the limit", and questioned whether police outside London had sufficient firearms capability.
Earlier, Lord Reid, who was Labour defence secretary until shortly before the 7 July 2005 bombings in London, told the BBC's Victoria Derbyshire programme a terror attack in the UK like that in Brussels was inevitable.
"Politicians ought to be honest with the British people and tell them, 'This will happen.'
"It will happen here because the terrorists only have to get through once," he said.
Elsewhere, Rob Wainwright, director of EU law enforcement agency Europol, told the BBC that despite the attacks, cross-border police cooperation in the EU "brings daily operational benefits to the UK".
He was responding to comments by the former head of MI6 Sir Richard Dearlove, who wrote in Prospect magazine that "the cost to Britain would be low" from a security perspective if it were to leave the EU.
Several of London's major landmarks, including the National Gallery, Tower Bridge, the London Eye and Trafalgar Square's fountains displayed the colours of the Belgian national flag on Wednesday evening in tribute to the victims of the attacks.
Many government buildings in the capital are already flying the Union flag and the Belgian flag at half-mast.
On Thursday, a 25-metre silk flag will be placed on the central staircase in Trafalgar Square ahead of a vigil organised in partnership with the Belgian Embassy between 18:00 GMT and 22:00.
The Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, said: "The scenes in Belgium were truly appalling and it is important we pay tribute to the victims, as well as show our solidarity with the people of Brussels.
"They have the sympathy of every Londoner and our thoughts will be with them as they do their best to recover from this despicable atrocity."
One British eyewitness described being caught up in the blasts.
Pauline Graystone cowered on the floor of the check-in area at Brussels airport with her husband and daughter.
"There was a huge bang just behind us. I said, 'What's that?' to my husband and he knew instantly it was a bomb so we just dropped.
"We were huddled there and suddenly there was another even bigger, louder bang that seemed even closer... then we really knew this was serious.
"We could smell burning and lots of the ceiling was falling down. It was just total confusion so we just stayed put and didn't move and hoped there wasn't going to be a third bomb."
The Foreign Office is warning Britons travelling to Brussels to be "alert and vigilant and stay away from crowded places".
Zaventem airport will remain closed until at least Friday and flights between there and the UK are disrupted. Passengers are being advised to contact their travel operator.
Eurostar services are operating normally on Wednesday, but passengers are being advised to check.
The Port of Dover says security checks have remained heightened since November's attacks in Paris, with customers urged to leave extra time before travelling
An emergency number for those worried a relative may have been affected has also been issued - 020 7008 0000.

Please provide a concise summary of the following section. | It is one of the very few observations of the phenomenon from the UK and Ireland.
The observatory said the detection was made around the time of a thunderstorm over Dublin on the 24/25 July 2013.
The images show the sprite, a carrot-shaped flash of light, rising high above the thunderclouds as seen from Armagh.
Typical lightning discharges often jump between clouds or between clouds and the ground.
Sprites are associated with similarly powerful electrical fields that occur high above the clouds of the Earth's atmosphere often during particularly intense thunderstorms.
The rare flashes are observed at heights from around 50 to 100 km, in the middle part of the Earth's atmosphere known as the mesosphere.
Because they are red and usually far away, to the naked eye sprites appear very faint and, like lightning, only last for a very short time - at most for up to a few hundredths of a second.
But they are very energetic phenomena and can measure up to several tens of kilometres across.
Their discovery in the late 1980s was unexpected, and only became possible when light-sensitive, surveillance-type video cameras were introduced.
The Armagh Observatory has used three of those cameras since 2005 to help study meteor activity in this region of the Earth's atmosphere.
On 25 July, around 15 lightning flashes were seen between 01:00 and 03:00 BST. At 01:05 BST the luminous, carrot-shaped sprite was recorded on video.
The Armagh Observatory's John McFarland said its ground location appeared to have been at least 30 km from Armagh roughly towards the direction of counties Louth and Dublin.
"It appears to be a typical 'red sprite', sometimes called a 'carrot' sprite owing to its distinctive shape," Mr McFarland said.
"Apart from being extraordinary and awesome to behold, the relatively recent discovery of sprites reminds us that the Earth's upper atmosphere remains a mystery, with a lot still to be learned about the environment of our own planet."
A moving image of the phenomenon can be seen at the observatory's website. | The Armagh Observatory has captured a rare atmospheric phenomenon known as a 'sprite' on film. |

"It's unjust and it's an unbelievable time for people who knew Vikki.
"It signifies a time for change, a very important change that has to happen."
Ms Thompson's death prompted calls for a shake-up of the way transgender prisoners are handled by authorities.

Write a concise summary for the following article. | Bob Higgins of Litchfield Road, Southampton, has been charged with 65 counts of indecent assault.
Hampshire Constabulary said the offences related to allegations involving 23 teenage boys dating back to the 1980s and 90s.
The 64-year-old is due to appear at Southampton Magistrates' Court on 20 July.
The 23-year-old vanished while on a night out with friends on 24 September in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.
Suffolk Police officers combing through CCTV footage have released stills of three people who have yet to be traced.
Mr Mckeague, from Dunfermline in Fife, was last seen walking alone in Bury St Edmunds at about 03:25 BST.
He walked into a dead-end area known as the "horseshoe" and was not seen again.
Following a previous appeal, police still need to trace two people shown on CCTV - a cyclist and an older man.
A name had been given for the older man, but this person has since been traced and he was not the man in the image.
A third picture has also been released. It is a better image of a potential witness, believed to have featured in pictures previously released on 8 December.
All of the footage was filmed in Bury St Edmunds town centre between 03.15 and 05:20 BST.
Police said the vast majority of people in the area who were captured on CCTV had been identified, traced and spoken to.
The three people in the images were the last seen on foot in the area who have yet to be traced.
Det Supt Katie Elliott said police had worked through information in a "logical way".
She added police have not received any information as yet from an intelligence services company employed by Mr Mckeague's family, but anything passed on by them would be considered as part of the ongoing inquiry. | A former Southampton Football Club coach has been charged with historical child abuse offences.

Can you summarize this passage? | The Belgian paper La Libre carries the front-page headline "EU: And in the end, it's Cameron who wins".
"Except that what is considered to be good by London is not necessarily good for Europe," the paper notes wryly.
A headline in Le Monde spells out what many in Europe warn will be the outcome of the deal.
"Brexit-avoiding deal opens the way for an 'a la carte' Europe", it says.
The paper's Brussels correspondents, Cecile Ducourtieux and Jean-Pierre Stroobants, conclude that the outcome of "a more laborious and dramatic" negotiation process than anyone had expected was in the end "a success for the British Conservative leader".
However, the writers say that Mr Cameron's gain came at the expense of European unity, and that "the divisions and lack of solidarity among the member states have never before seemed so deep".
The French paper Le Figaro says that an agreement was finally secured by means of "a war of attrition, a sleep war".
Germany's Die Welt notes that "The drama lasted longer than expected, but David Cameron finally got his 'deal'". The paper adds that "in the end, he got almost everything", and only had to compromise over a few details.
The German news website Grenzecho.net says that the deal for Britain has allowed the EU "to avert a life-threatening crisis".
Italy's La Repubblica notes that "David Cameron can rejoice because he takes home a 'yes' to most of the demands he made."
Another Italian paper, Il Sole 24 Ore, says that "a difficult agreement" was reached after 24 hours of "extremely tough negotiations".
A separate commentary in the paper by Marina Castellaneta warns that the concessions granted to Britain, especially those affecting the mobility of workers within Europe, "can only hinder the functioning of the Union".
One of the harshest judgements on Mr Cameron's summit deal comes from the left-of-centre Hungarian paper Nepszava, which in an article headlined "Brexit and the populists", says that "This week Cameron expected the European Council to start dismantling the already dilapidated edifice of the Union on account of his irresponsibility. And we watch all this helplessly."
Many papers also note that for Mr Cameron, the struggle is not yet over.
"Cameron has his agreement," says the Czech news website Aktualne.cz, adding that "Now he has to persuade the British that they want to remain in the EU under the new conditions".
The Czech financial paper Hospodarske noviny says that the deal reached at the summit gives Mr Cameron a good basis on which to campaign for a Yes vote in the referendum.
"European politicians found a compromise. Cameron considers the agreement to be reason enough to keep Britain in the Union", a headline in the paper reads.
However, the Hungarian news website Napi.hu warns that Cameron still has to convince the Eurosceptics within his own party.
"Brexit: The eurosceptics don't like the deal", a headline on the website reads.

"The situation was not easy but we understood that it was best for the team and the club."
Cadwaladers will add two more cafes in Cardiff as well as an outlet in Swansea while a new premises in Llanelli has just opened.

Summarize the following excerpt. | Plaid Cymru said it wanted an "alternative vision" of banking that "does not abandon its customers".
The party said a further 36 branches were expected to close in 2017.
The Welsh Government said banking regulation was not devolved "but we expect banks to offer services to customers across Wales and to not disadvantage rural communities".
AM Adam Price, Plaid's party economy spokesman, said a people's bank would be a "network of locally owned" banks similar to that seen in other European countries.
"I think it's time for us to think of an alternative model... which actually uses the money which you and I put into our bank accounts," he said.
"That's there then to flow out into lending to other local citizens and businesses so we can drive the future of our economy."
Mr Price said there would be a role for the Welsh Government potentially through the planned Development Bank for Wales, "to act as a hub".
A Welsh Government spokeswoman said: "As part of our work to improve financial services for businesses we are establishing a new Development Bank of Wales with a dedicated intelligence unit to better target financial services and advice for micro, small and medium sized businesses in Wales."
In a debate on Wednesday, Plaid Cymru will call on Welsh ministers to examine the steps needed in regulations and new laws to set up alternative models of banking.
The past few months have seen a steady stream of branch closures announcements.
In January, HSBC announced nine branches were to close in Wales, while the previous month NatWest revealed it was shutting nine north Wales banks.
In November, Lloyds Bank said it was shutting 10 branches.
Hertfordshire County Council has commissioned the study after the hole, which was 66ft (20m) wide, appeared on Fontmell Close in St Albans.
A local history society said the Bernard's Heath area was covered in brickmakers' clay pits in the 19th Century.
The council has spent the weekend filling in the hole with concrete.
About 77,000 litres were pumped into it on Friday with a further 100,000 litres on Saturday.
It was being left to set on Sunday and the plan was to fill it with another 100,000 litres on Monday.
Roger Miles, an amateur archaeologist with the St Albans & Hertfordshire Architectural & Archaeological Society, said brickmaking had existed for at least 300 years until the early 1900s, when many pits were filled in with the city's rubbish.
He said clay pits would have exposed the underlying chalk layers to more water, which could have led to crumbling and fissures.
"According to Ordnance Survey maps clay pits extended very close to where the sinkhole is and many had reverted to woodland over the past century," he said.
"We know the locations of some pits, but there may be others which were never mapped, so we need a fresh study to put householders' minds at ease.
"You can get a very good idea of what is under the ground without digging."
A council spokeswoman said the survey work would be non-invasive and detecting equipment could be used to pick up any underground anomalies such as weak spots or voids.
She said it could take weeks before the results were known.
Once all the concrete was set, it was hoped utilities could be fully restored to the 50 homes which were affected by the end of the week.
No-one was injured when the hole appeared but five homes were evacuated.
The council confirmed Fontmell Close had been resurfaced a year ago.
The British Geological Survey says there are several different types of sinkhole, sometimes known as "dolines".

What is the summary of the given information? | The estimate is the first of its kind by a major economic body.
It is equivalent to 6% of the region's total GDP between 2011 and 2015, the UN's Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA) says.
The uprisings, which started in Tunisia, saw leaders toppled in four countries, and led to war in Libya, Syria and Yemen.
The UN says Arab states have faced economic and social stagnation since the uprisings in 2011. The report describes social progress as "grim" and says the rights of citizens have regressed in some countries.
The data also says conflicts have worsened debt, unemployment, corruption and poverty, and exacerbated the refugee crisis.
Economic analysis was done using growth projects made before the uprisings.
It included countries not directly affected by political conflict but subject to spill-over effects from it, like refugee arrivals, lost remittances and falls in tourism.
The so-called Arab Spring started after a young, unemployed man, Mohamed Bouazizi, set fire to himself after officials stopped him from selling vegetables in central Tunisia in December 2010.
Mr Bouazizi's action ignited a string of protests across Tunisia which led to the then president's resignation and exile, and to the country's first democratic elections in 2011.
Protests in Tunisia acted as a catalyst for revolts and protests in several other Arab states, including Egypt, Yemen, Syria, Bahrain, Libya, Oman, Jordan and Morocco.
Much of the protests centred on calls for more democratic freedoms and an end to corruption. But many Arab protesters were met by violence and strong government crackdowns.
Libya, Yemen and Syria, remain locked in civil wars, which have cost tens of thousands of lives, and have left these countries without a functioning central government.
In Syria, where anti-government protests spiralled into a conflict that has drawn in foreign powers, GDP and capital losses are equal to $259bn since 2011, according to ESCWA's National Agenda for the Future of Syria.
In countries where political transitions have occurred, new governments have not made economic reforms required to address "the issues that led to unrest in the first place", the report says.
Mr Trump sparked anger by attacking the military record of Senator McCain, a former prisoner of war, saying: "I like people who weren't captured."
The Republican presidential candidate said his remarks were misrepresented and Mr McCain is a "very brave man".
Rival Republican contenders have hit out at Mr Trump over the comments.
He made them while addressing a gathering of conservatives in Iowa on Saturday when the moderator referred to the Arizona Republican as a war hero.
Mr McCain was held for more than five years after his plane was shot down in Vietnam. Mr Trump avoided military service through student and medical deferments.
"He's not a war hero," Mr Trump said to gasps from the audience. "He was a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren't captured."
Meet the US presidential contenders
Mr McCain played down the attack on Monday, telling the MSNBC TV news network: "I think he may owe an apology to the families of those who have sacrificed in conflict and those who have undergone the prison experience in serving our country."
Mr Trump, who has portrayed himself as an outspoken, outsider Republican candidate, has since tried to reframe his attack on Mr McCain.
Writing in the USA Today newspaper on Monday, he accused the Mr McCain of abandoning the nation's veterans, making the US less safe, and sending "our brave soldiers into wrong-headed foreign adventures".
He also lashed out at his Republican rivals, calling them "failed politicians" and saying he did not need "to be lectured by any of them".
Jeb Bush, the current Republican frontrunner, led the criticism of Mr Trump's remarks, tweeting: "Enough with the slanderous attacks".
"It's not just absurd," Florida Senator Marco Rubio said. "It's offensive. It's ridiculous. And I do think it is a disqualifier as commander-in-chief."
Rick Perry, another Republican candidate, said: "We're seeing an individual who's more interested in throwing invectives and this hyperbolic rhetoric out there, rather than laying out solutions."
There are currently 15 people running to be the Republican presidential candidate.
Mr Trump has led in some early polls, although analysts have predicted his appeal is likely to wane as the contest develops. | The Arab Spring protest movement has cost the region $614bn in lost growth since 2011, the UN says.

Write a short summary of the following excerpt. | The two relevant points (leaving aside moral ones) are that:
So to put it another way, it is arguably particularly useful to Germany to have an influx of young grateful families from Syria or elsewhere, who may well be keen to toil and strive to rebuild their lives and prove to their hosts that they are not a burden - in the way that successive immigrant waves have done all over the world (including Jews like my family in London's East End).
Here are the European Commission's projections from its Ageing Report that was published earlier this year.
It projects that Germany's population will shrink from 81.3 million in 2013 to 70.8 million in 2060, whereas the UK's will rise from 64.1 million to 80.1 million.
As you can see, what is striking is that the UK is set to become the EU's most populous country, ahead of Germany and France, as a result of a relatively high fertility rate and greater projected rates of net migration.
It is probably relevant that the Commission forecasts that the proportion of the German population in 2060 represented by migrants arriving after 2013 would be 9%, compared with 14% in the UK. So Germany would be a lot less multicultural than the UK.
As for the dependency ratio, the percentage of those 65 and over compared with those aged between 15 and 64, that is forecast to rise from 32% to a very high 59% in Germany by 2060.
Or to put it another way, by 2060 there will be fewer than two Germans under 65 to work and generate taxes to support each German over 65.
Because people are living longer more or less everywhere, the dependency ratio is also set to increase in the UK, but by less - from 27% to 43%. Which still represents a massive increase in the burden on the younger generation of supporting the old, but not as great as in Germany.
One way of seeing the impact of ageing is in differences in the relative burdens on the public finances of support required by older people.
So in Germany, age-related spending on pensions, health and long-term care is expected to rise by a hefty five percentage points of GDP or national income by 2060, more than double the projected 2.3% increase anticipated for the UK.
Here is the thing. Wherever you stand in the debate on whether immigration is a good or bad thing - and most economists would argue that immigration promotes growth - right now immigration looks much more economically useful to Germany than to the UK.
That is perhaps one of the unspoken reasons why Germany is being much more welcoming to asylum seekers from Syria and elsewhere right now.
That said, some business leaders and a couple of Tory ministers gave me what can only be described as an off-message critique of David Cameron's approach to the migrant crisis over the weekend.
They said that Angela Merkel is creaming off the most economically useful of the asylum seekers, by taking those that have shown the gumption and initiative to risk life and limb by fleeing to Europe.
Precedent suggests they will be the ones that find work fastest and impose the least economic burden on Germany or any other host country.
By contrast, David Cameron appears to be doing what many would see as the more morally admirable thing - which is to go to the Syrian camps and invite children and the most vulnerable of refugees to Britain.
But this version of living up to what the prime minister calls our moral responsibilities is undeniably more expensive in the short term than giving a welcome to the able-bodied refugees already in Hungary, Greece or Italy, and desperate to come here. | There is an economic and demographic backdrop to the differential policies towards asylum-seekers of Germany and the UK - to Germany's relatively open door, that compares with the UK's heavily fortified portal (which will be opened just a bit by David Cameron later today). |
What is the summary of the provided article? | Mark Ward admitted 20 counts of sexual abuse - which happened between 1979 and 1982 and from 1992 to 1995 - including two rapes and indecent assaults.
Ward, from Netherton, Sefton, was given 10 and seven-and-a-half prison terms for the rapes, to run consecutively.
The 53-year-old's sentences for the other offences, ranging from four to nine years, will run concurrently.
Det Sgt Paul Jones of Merseyside Police led the investigation after Ward's victims came forward in 2011.
Speaking after the sentencing at Liverpool Crown Court, he said: "The victims in this case suffered terribly at the hands of Ward, both at the time he carried out his crimes against them and in the many years since.
"They have shown incredible bravery and courage in coming forward to tell the police what happened to them.
"Victims of sexual offences, however long ago they happened, have a right to be listened to and a right to be believed and I would encourage anyone else out there who has suffered this kind of crime to find the strength within themselves to tell someone." | A paedophile from Merseyside has been jailed for 17-and-a-half years for the historical sexual abuse of two boys. |
