FA chairman Greg Dyke has conceded that there might be some truth in Les Ferdinand's view that covert racism exists in English football. Ferdinand, director of football at Premier League club QPR, feels that covert racism has contributed to why there are so few managers from ethnic minority backgrounds in the English game. The former England striker suggested that some club owners and chairmen are being racist - even if they don't realise it - by not considering minority candidates, and has backed a Rooney Rule style law to be implemented in England to improve representation. Dyke told Sky Sports News HQ, 'I think there is probably covert racism in parts of our society and therefore it would be surprising if it was not in football.' FA chairman Greg Dyke believes that 'covert racism' exists in English football and must be tackled . QPR director of football Les Ferdinand is supportive of a Rooney Rule style law to improve representation . He said, 'I don't think people are blatantly racist but I still think there are views and I think that we've got to change those.' Meanwhile, Dyke is hopeful that he will not have to force Premier League teams to accept his proposed changes to the homegrown talent rules. Dyke wants to increase the minimum number of players per club that have been trained in England for a period of three seasons before their 21st birthday from eight to 12, as part of a strategy to get more Englishmen playing regularly in the top flight. He explained, 'This is not something we want to enforce. What we would like is to have a discussion with the clubs, with the leagues, 'these are our ideas, these are their ideas,' it's exactly what we did on overseas players outside of Europe and we came up with a solution which will reduce the numbers - that's what we would like to do on this.'

He hopes that more players like Harry Kane (left) can go on to play regular first-team football for their club .

A devoted husband who complained about his dying wife's care was mistakenly investigated for attempted murder after an NHS call-handler misunderstood his comments. John Histon called the health service after allegedly being told by a paramedic that call-outs to his wife Betty were 'becoming costly'. Mr Histon said he told the 111 operator: 'I suppose it is best to get her to suffocate and she won't be a problem to you.' The 70-year-old was then horrified when police turned up on his door 24 hours later saying ambulance trust staff reported he was threatening to kill his wife. A paramedic is said to have moaned that call-outs to terminally ill Betty Histon were 'becoming costly'. When her husband complained to the NHS he was investigated for attempted murder over comments he made . After searching his home in Bristol and finding Mrs Histon - who had chronic lung conditions - asleep in bed, they dropped the investigation and the NHS has since apologised. Mr Histon, who has since lost his wife to long-standing lung problems, said his and her treatment in her final days was 'shocking'. The retired decorator from Bristol said: 'When they turned up on the door they asked me "do you know why we are here?", I assumed there had been a break-in in the area. 'They said they had an allegation that I have tried to smother my wife - I thought it was a hoax. I was shocked and nearly hit the floor. 'I never deserted her and cared for her right to the very end so it was very distressing to be accused and I was very angry.' Former auxiliary nurse Mrs Histon had a lung condition and her concerned husband called for paramedics on December 15 when she was struggling to breathe. He claims the paramedics who attended said the call-outs to the grandmother were 'becoming a costly exercise'. Mr Histon said: 'The young female paramedic said "what do you expect, there is no point in admitting her to hospital, there is nothing we can do for her". 'She was quite cocky about it and she said looking at the notes it looks like they had been called out quite frequently and it was becoming "a costly exercise".' Mr Histon called the NHS 111 service - who work with the ambulance service - the next day to lodge a complaint. An ambulance was called to Mrs Histon's suburban street (pictured) in Bristol by her husband. Police arrived the following day after an NHS call handler misunderstood comments he made over the phone . 'I said to the operator I suppose it is best to get her to suffocate and she won't be a problem to you again to try and emphasise how upsetting it was to be told we were some kind of burden to them,' he said. 'I thought nothing of it until the next evening I got a knock on the door from the police. 'They said they had received an allegation I had tried to smother my wife. They said it was from the ambulance.' Mrs Histon died in January from bronchopneumonia and Mr Histon is considering legal action against South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust over his and his wife's treatment. A spokesman for the trust said: 'Mr Histon raised concerns regarding advice he had been given by one of the ambulance crews who attended his wife. 'He also had concerns about a safeguarding referral made following Mr Histon's comments about it being 'best to get her to suffocate'. 'The Trust has given Mr Histon sincere condolences following the loss of his wife, and is sorry that he took offence from the advice given to him by the ambulance service. 'The Trust has also confirmed that the safeguarding referral to the police could have been managed differently, however, due to the number of vulnerable people the trust comes into contact with, staff are always very sensitive to such comments. 'Mr Histon has confirmed that he will be pursuing some form of financial compensation and although he has received a full response from the Trust regarding his complaint, should he feel there are any elements he still requires further clarification on we would urge him to get in touch.' South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust, based in Exeter (pictured), has apologised .

Asking a young child to talk about Nelson Mandela and the concept of human rights, equality or the right to individual self-realisation is quite a leap from asking them about their favourite food. But that's exactly what Amnesty International has done, in a heart-warming video called Human Rights Heroes Of The Future, which poses such questions to children ranging in age from five to nine. One girl is asked: What did Nelson Mandela do? She says: 'He stood up for what he believed - that white people shouldn't just have all the fun and black people should have fun as well.' Another is asked: Who was Nelson Mandela? She replies: 'Nelson Mandela was a man who thought that black people should just have the amount of right just as the white people should. 'But then he was put into jail because of what he said - and then he finally went out because people were protesting for him to come out. And then there was a song Free Nelson Mandela - and everything kind of became how he wanted it to be.' Meanwhile, an equally challenging poser is put to a 'short five-year-old' boy: What does equality look like? His sweet response? 'If there was one man over here like he was five years old, and one man over here like he was five years old too, they would all be the same size.' 'Nelson Mandela was a man who thought that black people should just have the amount of right just as the white people should.' This was the reply to one of a series of human rights questions put by Amnesty International to children aged five to nine . 'Fear - the more you worry about it, the bigger it gets... and the more you think positively, the more fear would be, like friendly - you wouldn't worry about anything, and have a great time basically' 'If there was one man over here like he was five years old, and one man over here like he was five years old too, they would all be the same size' Other questions put to the youngsters included topics that might faze some grown-ups. For example: At a time of daunting global events, many people are afraid. What would you advise? A boy, aged about nine's reply? 'Fear - the more you worry about it, the bigger it gets... and the more you think positively, the more fear would be, like friendly - you wouldn't worry about anything, and have a great time basically.' The video was released by the human rights organisation to coincide with the publication of its new book Dreams Of Freedom on World Book Day. The book combines the words of human rights heroes such as Nelson Mandela, the Dalai Lama, Anne Frank, Chief Standing Bear, Malala and Aung San Suu Kyi with beautiful illustrations from international artists including Oliver Jeffers and Chris Riddell. In a time when children across the world are traumatised, frightened and confused by news events, the aim of the book is to empower them to explore hard-won rights and understand how precious they are. 'The world wouldn't be the same... the world would be terrible - and it would be quite boring' 'Being unique without anybody stopping you being unique' The video was released by the human rights organisation to coincide with the publication of its new book Dreams Of Freedom on World Book Day . Author and former Children’s Laureate Michael Morpurgo wrote in the foreword to the book: 'Dreams Of Freedom is a feast of visual stories – brave words and beautiful pictures, woven together to inspire young readers to stand up for others and to make a difference. 'It gives me great hope for the freedom of future generations. 'I have grown up, not in a perfect country by any means, but in a society where, by and large, we can say what we like, write what we like, be who we want to be, so long as we do not threaten the liberty of others and so long as we respect their rights. 'What we can forget, if we are not careful, is that it was not always like this. These rights have been fought for, died for, argued over, for centuries. 'Indeed the struggle to protect and defend our freedom goes on, both in our own country and in the world beyond.' Kate Allen, Amnesty’s UK Director, said: 'In a time when many children can't help seeing news about threats from terrorism and other atrocities, this book celebrates heroism and shows how important it is for all of us to stand up and make a difference.

This cat has outlived all of her nine lives. Tiffany Two, a tortoiseshell feline holds the Guinness World Record for the oldest living cat and reached another milestone Friday when she turned 27 years old. The cat, who was born on March 13, 1988 in San Diego, California has now lived the equivalent of 125 human years. Old age: Tiffany Two, a tortoiseshell feline, pictured, holds the Guinness World Record for the oldest living cat . Owner: Sharon Voorhees, pictured, paid just $10 for Tiffany Two when the cat was just six weeks old and has been caring for her ever since . Tiffany Two's owner Sharon Voorhees said she paid just $10 for the cat when she bought her from a pet store at six weeks old. She boasts that it was the 'best money she ever spent.' According to the Guinness World Records the short-haired black and orange tortoiseshell is officially the world's oldest living cat. Voorhees recalls that at the time she bought Tiffany Two she also purchased two dogs, born around the same time, but they died years ago. Meanwhile, she explains that the cat's unusual name was a tribute to another tortoiseshell cat she owned in the 1970s. And while the 27-year-old is generally in good health, she does suffer from high blood pressure. Tweet: Guinness World Records tweeted 'this week oldest cat Tiffany Two turned 27 years old' But Vorhees says she still enjoys roaming around outside and is 'not feeble and still able to go up and down stairs'. Years ago, Tiffany Two had a stint on the open road after she went missing for two years. It's not known where she went. Today, she enjoys staying inside but does venture outdoors sometimes. Voorhees said: 'She's not afraid of anything or anyone. She walks right past the dogs, she's very feisty!' As Tiffany Two grows old gracefully she still has good sight and hearing and eats both 'wet food and dry food.' However, the record-breaker is not the oldest cat ever recorded throughout history. That achievement belongs to a feline from Austin, Texas, called Creme Puff who was born on 3 August 1967 and died on until 6 August 2005 at the ripe old age of 38. Milestone: Her owner Sharon Voorhees has kept pictures of her cat's growth since 1988 .

Alaska wildlife officials are preparing to release North America's largest land mammal into its native US habitat for the first time in more than a century. The Alaska Department of Fish and Game plans to begin moving wood bison, which can weigh up to 2,000 pounds and stand six-feet-tall at the shoulder, from a conservation center near Anchorage to the village of Shageluk. A hundred wood bison will be released into the Innoko Flats about 350 miles southwest of Fairbanks in a few weeks after they're acclimated. Scroll down for video . The Alaska Department of Fish and Game plans to begin moving wood bison, which can weigh up to 2,000 pounds and stand six-feet-tall at the shoulder, to the village of Shageluk so they can be released in a few weeks . The bison will be flown in 20-foot containers that can hold seven adult cows in individual stalls or up to 17 younger bison. Two containers will be trucked Sunday to Anchorage and flown by commercial carrier for the hour flight to Shageluk. A C-130 from Lynden Air Cargo, one of the multiple corporate sponsors involved, can carry two containers each flight. Half the initial herd moved will be adult cows. About 25 are pregnant. The rest of the herd will be juveniles two years old or younger. Bulls will be barged to the area in summer. Wood bison feed on grasses, sedges and forbs and wider variety of other plants like the state's abundant willow . Biologist Cathie Harms said: 'This has been an incredibly long project - 23 years in the making, . 'To say we're excited is an understatement.' The state hopes to complete the flights by Tuesday but will proceed slowly if there are snags. Wood bison are very large, very powerful wild animals, Harms said. She added: 'We're making them do something they don't want to do/' Once in Shageluk, the bison will be kept in pens several acres large before being released in two or three week after 'they're in good shape'. Wood bison are the larger of two subspecies of American bison but did not roam in Lower 48 states. The smaller subspecies are plains bison, which were not native to Alaska but were introduced to the state in 1928, where they have thrived. Wood bison flourished for thousands of years in Alaska but disappeared in the 1800s or early 1900s. No one knows why. They feed on grasses, sedges and forbs and wider variety of other plants, including Alaska's abundant willow. The state had a strong interest in reintroduction as a source of food for subsistence hunters and as a game animal for sport hunting, but plans ran into a political snag. Wood bison flourished for thousands of years in Alaska but disappeared in the 1800s or early 1900s . In 2008, the state imported 53 wood bison from a national park in Canada, adding to a smaller herd that was held at the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center in Portage. However, wood bison are a threatened species and state officials worried that the federal government would designate their new home in the wild as critical habitat, requiring consultation with federal agencies before oil and gas drilling or other development could occur. The problems were worked out. The US Fish and Wildlife Service in 2013 declared that wood bison reintroduced in Alaska would be considered an experimental population not essential to the continued existence of the species. The wood bison will be managed by state wildlife officials and exempt from certain restrictions in the Endangered Species Act. The Fish and Game Department does not expect predators to be a problem. Biologist Harms said: 'Wolves don't seem to know what to do with them.' Alaska did not record a bear or a wolf killing a plains bison until nearly 30 years after they were introduced 87 years ago.
Animals can weigh 2,000lbs and are North America's largest land mammal . Flourished for thousands of years but disappeared in the 1800s or 1900s . 100 wood bison will be released in a few weeks after they've acclimated . Creatures eat grasses, sedges and forbs and wider variety of other plants .

The Alaska Department of Fish and Game plans to begin moving wood bison, which can weigh up to 2,000 pounds and stand six-feet-tall at the shoulder, to the village of Shageluk so they can be released in a few weeks . The bison will be flown in 20-foot containers that can hold seven adult cows in individual stalls or up to 17 younger bison. Two containers will be trucked Sunday to Anchorage and flown by commercial carrier for the hour flight to Shageluk. A C-130 from Lynden Air Cargo, one of the multiple corporate sponsors involved, can carry two containers each flight. Half the initial herd moved will be adult cows. About 25 are pregnant. The rest of the herd will be juveniles two years old or younger. Bulls will be barged to the area in summer. Wood bison feed on grasses, sedges and forbs and wider variety of other plants like the state's abundant willow . Biologist Cathie Harms said: 'This has been an incredibly long project - 23 years in the making, . 'To say we're excited is an understatement.' The state hopes to complete the flights by Tuesday but will proceed slowly if there are snags. Wood bison are very large, very powerful wild animals, Harms said. She added: 'We're making them do something they don't want to do/' Once in Shageluk, the bison will be kept in pens several acres large before being released in two or three week after 'they're in good shape'. Wood bison are the larger of two subspecies of American bison but did not roam in Lower 48 states. The smaller subspecies are plains bison, which were not native to Alaska but were introduced to the state in 1928, where they have thrived. Wood bison flourished for thousands of years in Alaska but disappeared in the 1800s or early 1900s. No one knows why. They feed on grasses, sedges and forbs and wider variety of other plants, including Alaska's abundant willow. The state had a strong interest in reintroduction as a source of food for subsistence hunters and as a game animal for sport hunting, but plans ran into a political snag. Wood bison flourished for thousands of years in Alaska but disappeared in the 1800s or early 1900s . In 2008, the state imported 53 wood bison from a national park in Canada, adding to a smaller herd that was held at the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center in Portage. However, wood bison are a threatened species and state officials worried that the federal government would designate their new home in the wild as critical habitat, requiring consultation with federal agencies before oil and gas drilling or other development could occur. The problems were worked out. The US Fish and Wildlife Service in 2013 declared that wood bison reintroduced in Alaska would be considered an experimental population not essential to the continued existence of the species. The wood bison will be managed by state wildlife officials and exempt from certain restrictions in the Endangered Species Act. The Fish and Game Department does not expect predators to be a problem. Biologist Harms said: 'Wolves don't seem to know what to do with them.' Alaska did not record a bear or a wolf killing a plains bison until nearly 30 years after they were introduced 87 years ago.

Justice Markandey Ketju said Gandhi's religious references worked to divide the Indian people, strengthening British rule . Mahatma Gandhi, the leader who helped lead India to independence over British rule, was actually an agent for the colonists, a top India judge has claimed. Justice Markandey Ketju said Gandhi deliberately tried to drive a wedge between the country's Hindu and Muslim populations, helping the British to divide and rule. The judge, who is known for making controversial statements, made his comments ahead of the unveiling of a statue of Gandhi in Parliament Square, London. They also came as Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond flies to Delhi for his first official visit, meeting with finance minister Arun Jaitley, who will come to London to see the statue unveiled. Mr Katju, 68, wrote on his personal blog: 'I submit that Gandhi was objectively a British agent who did great harm to India. 'By constantly injecting religion into politics continuously for several decades, Gandhi furthered the British policy of divide and rule.'

He then goes on to quote from Gandhi's speeches and writings before adding: 'These are only some of the stupid, feudal ideas this "Father of our nation" had.' He says the fact that Gandhi peppered his speeches with Hindu phrases and terms pressed Indian Muslims into creating their own separate state, Pakistan, which was founded less than a year before Gandhi was shot dead.

Chelsea captain John Terry praised the character of his Premier League-title chasing team to bounce back from conceding a two-goal lead to beat Hull and enter the international break on a high. Draws against Paris St Germain - a result which ended the Blues' Champions League participation - and Southampton may have knocked confidence. And when Hull came back from going 2-0 down after nine minutes to draw level at 2-2, Chelsea had to dig deep to win 3-2 through Loic Remy's strike. John Terry praised Chelsea's character after recovering from allowing Hull back into the match against Hull .

'The importance of the win showed on the players' faces and that of the manager afterwards,' Terry said. 'When you set the standard so high as we have done from the word go, then start dropping points at home and go out of the Champions League, once again it comes back down to character. 'It's immense in the dressing room, there is an awful lot of experience in there. It will serve the younger lads well, too. 'It was an important three points going into the international break. For everyone to dwell over that for two weeks was massive.' Terry and his team-mates applaud the Chelsea fans after beating Hull 3-2 on Sunday . Jose Mourinho looks disgruntled after watching his Premier Leaders throw away a two-goal lead in first half . Mourinho reflected on a commanding advantage which he hopes will help Chelsea win a first Premier League title since 2010. 'It's the best position since the beginning of the season,' Mourinho, who is chasing a third Premier League title, told Chelsea TV. 'The maximum points (advantage) we had was eight points and when we had eight points we were speaking about 20 matches to go. 'In this moment we have six points (advantage) with one match in hand with 24 possible points for our opponents. 'We know our opponents are there, we know football is very unpredictable, we know that what is happening to us for the last two or three months we cannot control.

Mourinho was referring to the incidents, such as in the draw with Southampton, which he believes denied his side more points than they earned. The win at the KC Stadium was Chelsea's third in seven games. The Blues had followed the Capital One Cup win over Tottenham at Wembley with victory over West Ham, but had been frustrated since. Now Terry hopes his Chelsea team-mates can return from the international hiatus reinvigorated and ready to carry the momentum from the Hull win by claiming a first home win since February 11 against Everton. 'The title race is exciting,' the former England defender added. 'There is still an awful long way to go. We have Stoke at home and QPR away next, which is always a tough one for us.

'But it's important we get back to winning at the Bridge because it's something we haven't done for a few weeks.' Remy was being readied to play alongside Costa at Hull, but had to instead replace the striker, who picked up a hamstring injury. It was the France striker's fourth goal of a season which has seen him given limited opportunities, mainly off the substitutes' bench. He told chelseafc.com: 'It is true it is frustrating sitting on the bench but the manager knows all the team and he has very good quality in the squad. 'I know there are only 11 players on the pitch and as soon the manager needs me I am here. 'It's one of my best moments at Chelsea. I hope I will have more moments like that before the end of the season.'

Mourinho was referring to the incidents, such as in the draw with Southampton, which he believes denied his side more points than they earned. The win at the KC Stadium was Chelsea's third in seven games. The Blues had followed the Capital One Cup win over Tottenham at Wembley with victory over West Ham, but had been frustrated since. Now Terry hopes his Chelsea team-mates can return from the international hiatus reinvigorated and ready to carry the momentum from the Hull win by claiming a first home win since February 11 against Everton. 'The title race is exciting,' the former England defender added. 'There is still an awful long way to go. We have Stoke at home and QPR away next, which is always a tough one for us. Loic Remy's scored the winning goal for Chelsea moments after coming on as a second-half substitute . Ahmed Elmohamady netted Hull City's first goal to give them a route back into the match at the KC Stadium . Abel Hernandez capitalises on Thibaut Courtois' mistake to get Hull City back on level terms . 'Hopefully everyone will come back fit after the break and go again. 'But it's important we get back to winning at the Bridge because it's something we haven't done for a few weeks.' Remy was being readied to play alongside Costa at Hull, but had to instead replace the striker, who picked up a hamstring injury. It was the France striker's fourth goal of a season which has seen him given limited opportunities, mainly off the substitutes' bench. He told chelseafc.com: 'It is true it is frustrating sitting on the bench but the manager knows all the team and he has very good quality in the squad. 'I know there are only 11 players on the pitch and as soon the manager needs me I am here. 'It's one of my best moments at Chelsea. I hope I will have more moments like that before the end of the season.' [/INST] Chelsea beat Hull 3-2 at the KC Stadium on Saturday in the Premier League .

Washington (CNN)The Justice Department is preparing to bring criminal corruption charges against Sen. Robert Menendez, a New Jersey Democrat, alleging he used his Senate office to push the business interests of a Democratic donor and friend in exchange for gifts. People briefed on the case say Attorney General Eric Holder has signed off on prosecutors' request to proceed with charges, CNN first reported. An announcement could come within weeks. Prosecutors are under pressure in part because of the statute of limitation on some of the allegations. Menendez told reporters Friday night he has "always conducted myself appropriately and in accordance with the law." He added: "And I am not going anywhere." Menendez said that because of an ongoing investigation he couldn't answer questions at the news conference, held in Newark. The case could pose a high-profile test of the Justice Department's ability to prosecute sitting lawmakers, having already spawned a legal battle over whether key evidence the government has gathered is protected by the Constitution's Speech and Debate clause. The FBI and prosecutors from the Justice Department's public integrity section, have pursued a variety of allegations against Menendez, who has called the probe part of "smear campaign" against him. The government's case centers on Menendez's relationship with Salomon Melgen, a Florida ophthalmologist who the senator has called a friend and political supporter. Melgen and his family have been generous donors to the senator and various committees the senator is associated with. RELATED: FBI agents search office of Florida doctor known as Senator's donor . Investigators have focused in part on plane trips Menendez took in 2010 to the Dominican Republic as a guest of Melgen. In 2013, after word of the federal investigation became public, Menendez paid back Melgen $58,000 for the 2010 plane trips calling his failure to properly disclose the flights an "oversight." Menendez said he has been friends with Melgen for more than 20 years and the two families have spent holidays and other special occasions together. One of the highest ranking Hispanic members of Congress, Menendez is a former chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. He has become one of the Obama administration's most vocal Democratic opponents on two key foreign policy matters -- President Obama's decision to ease the trade embargo against Cuba and also his effort to engage direct negotiations with Iran over that country's nuclear program. Menendez advocated on Melgen's behalf with federal Medicare administrators who accused Melgen of overbilling the government's healthcare program, according to court documents and people briefed on the probe. Melgen was among the top recipients of Medicare reimbursements in recent years, during a time when he was also a major Democratic donor. Melgen's attorneys have denied any wrongdoing. Prosecutors also are focusing on whether Menendez broke the law in advocating for Melgen's business interest in a Dominican Republic government contract for a port screening equipment. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency, at the time, considered donating port screening equipment to the Dominican Republic, which would have hurt the contract of Melgen-controlled company. Menendez, now serving his second full term as senator, led the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee from 2009-2011. During a Senate subcommittee hearing in 2012, Menendez didn't mention ICSSI, Melgen's company, by name, but he did press Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Matthew Rooney about an unnamed company who had a contract to X-ray cargo that went through all Dominican ports -- a contract that, he said, Dominican authorities "don't want to live by." "If those countries can get away with that, they will," the senator said. "And that puts American companies at a tremendous disadvantage." Menendez's office said at the time the senator's interest was based on his efforts to combat narcotrafficking in the region. Other lines of inquiry against Menendez had included allegations he solicited prostitutes in the Dominican Republic, and that he violated the law helping win permanent U.S. residency for two Ecuadorian banking magnates, the Isaias brothers. The prostitution allegations collapsed after the purported prostitutes recanted their story, and the FBI didn't find evidence of wrongdoing in the Isaias matter, according to people briefed on the probe. The FBI probe has already spawned a legal battle between the government, Menendez and his former aides. Last week, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals briefly posted, apparently by accident, documents detailing legal efforts to block certain evidence and testimony the government wants to use. The documents were quickly put back under seal, but not before a reporter with the New Jersey Law Journal secured a copy and later published a story. According to the documents, Menendez's lawyers have sought to claim emails and testimony from aides is protected by the constitutional protections given to members of Congress in carrying out their duties. The speech and debate clause prohibits questioning of members of Congress about "legislative acts or the motivation for legislative acts." The fight centers in part on the Justice Department's attempt to compel testimony from Menendez's aides, some of whom have refused to answer questions to a grand jury. According to the documents, the government wants to question aides about a series of 2012 calls and meetings on Melgen's fight with the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services, a federal agency. Among these is a meeting among Mendedez, Sen. Harry Reid and then Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius. The government is also pushing to use emails between Menendez's office and a CBP official about the Dominican ports issue. A federal district court ruled in favor of the government to compel testimony from Menendez's aides, but the appeals court reversed the ruling and ordered a hearing. "The parties primarily dispute the legislative character of Senator Menendez's two conversations with [then acting CMS administrator Marilyn] Tavenner and his meeting with Secretary Sebelius," the appeals court said. "These communications are not manifestly legislative acts because they are informal communications with executive branch officials, one of whom was at the time a presidential nominee whose nomination was pending before the United States senate."
An announcement from the Justice Department could come in weeks . Case will be a test of ability to prosecute sitting lawmakers .

When he’s not missing sitters, Arsenal adore him. When they’re not jeering and cheering the decision to replace him, the fans like nothing more than belting out his name to the tune of 'Hey Jude'. Olivier Giroud’s world is a little mixed up right now, but it is never boring.

Ramsey’s team, however, could not find the goal which might have galvanised them and, as the first half wore on, they faded. Arsenal enjoyed more comfortable possession and Rob Green came under threat for the first time. Green responded with three solid saves to frustrate Giroud and one to deny Santi Cazorla. Wenger’s team came out with more urgency and purpose after the interval. 'It was important to get the ball on the ground, not only fight but fight and play,' said the Arsenal boss. 'In the second half, we did that. We fought and played.' Tomas Rosicky set the tone, tearing past Sandro to deliver a cross from the right which clipped Mesut Ozil on the shin and flew clear.

Mystery surrounds the legacy of Cubs' legend Ernie Banks who apparently only left $16,000 worth of assets when he died in January aged 83. The news emerged as the star player's estranged fourth wife Elizabeth Banks and glamorous caretaker Regina Rice pursue a bitter court battle to seize the estate. Rice has been accused of coercing the baseball great into signing a will that left everything to her, without his family's knowledge. Meanwhile, the Chicago Cubs has agreed to settle the allegedly unpaid bill - totalling $35,000 - for Banks' burial service after a funeral home sued the family for all costs plus legal fees. Missing millions? Ernie Banks, one of the greats of baseball, reportedly only left $16,000 when he died at 83 . Bitter battle: His widow Elizabeth Banks (left) and his caregiver Regina Rice (right) are fighting for the estate . And Rice maintains that Banks had wanted to be cremated, with his ashes scattered over Wrigley Field. Lawyers for Banks' widow, Elizabeth, have called for a review of the player's accounts including vehicles and baseball memorabilia after Rice's lawyers estimated him to be worth $16,000. Last month, Cook County Court heard Banks was never paid more than $75,000 a year throughout his lengthy and high-flying career. However, Rice's attorney Linda Chatman said the estimate was just preliminary, and she noted that the true value of the estate was in the rights to his name and likeness. That means that the estate could be worth far more, given Ernie Banks' place in the history of Major League Baseball and in Chicago, where he was a beloved sports figure for his 19 years on the field and decades after. Rice has been barred from selling anything that belonged to Banks as his widow and two sons contest the latest will. Heightening tensions, a law suit filed this week by Donnellan Family Funeral Services claims the Banks family did not pay $11,000 for the cost of the casket, $6,755 for flowers, more than $3,000 in car services and $2,700 in staff fees. 'I find it quite interesting that she did not tell anyone that she had an attorney write up a new will,' one of Banks' twin sons, Jerry Banks, said. A court heard Banks was never paid more than $75,000 a year for his lengthy and stellar career with the Cubs .

Joey Banks said the family thought Rice was helping and watching over 'Mr Cub' while he was in Chicago.

Bogen said the family will vigorously fight the will. 'It is understandable that Ernie's family is concerned at this very sad time,' Rice said in her statement.

Before Banks' death, family members frequently spoke to Rice because she made it difficult for them to speak directly to him, Jerry Banks said. 'At the funeral of my father, I went out of my way to praise Ms Rice and her son for helping my father,' Joey Banks said. 'What I did not know at that time is that for at least six months prior to my father's death, in my opinion, she was using him, manipulating him and controlled him.' The brothers' comments were their first in a dispute that first centered on what should be done with Ernie Banks' remains. Estranged wife Elizabeth Banks went to court to prevent Rice from having Banks' remains cremated. Rice wanted Banks' remains to be cremated after his death last month at the age of 83, according to documents filed by Elizabeth Banks' attorneys on February 2.

<s>[INST] Mystery surrounds the legacy of Cubs' legend Ernie Banks who apparently only left $16,000 worth of assets when he died in January aged 83. The news emerged as the star player's estranged fourth wife Elizabeth Banks and glamorous caretaker Regina Rice pursue a bitter court battle to seize the estate. Rice has been accused of coercing the baseball great into signing a will that left everything to her, without his family's knowledge. Meanwhile, the Chicago Cubs has agreed to settle the allegedly unpaid bill - totalling $35,000 - for Banks' burial service after a funeral home sued the family for all costs plus legal fees. Missing millions? Ernie Banks, one of the greats of baseball, reportedly only left $16,000 when he died at 83 . Bitter battle: His widow Elizabeth Banks (left) and his caregiver Regina Rice (right) are fighting for the estate . And Rice maintains that Banks had wanted to be cremated, with his ashes scattered over Wrigley Field. Lawyers for Banks' widow, Elizabeth, have called for a review of the player's accounts including vehicles and baseball memorabilia after Rice's lawyers estimated him to be worth $16,000. Last month, Cook County Court heard Banks was never paid more than $75,000 a year throughout his lengthy and high-flying career. However, Rice's attorney Linda Chatman said the estimate was just preliminary, and she noted that the true value of the estate was in the rights to his name and likeness. That means that the estate could be worth far more, given Ernie Banks' place in the history of Major League Baseball and in Chicago, where he was a beloved sports figure for his 19 years on the field and decades after. Rice has been barred from selling anything that belonged to Banks as his widow and two sons contest the latest will. Heightening tensions, a law suit filed this week by Donnellan Family Funeral Services claims the Banks family did not pay $11,000 for the cost of the casket, $6,755 for flowers, more than $3,000 in car services and $2,700 in staff fees. 'I find it quite interesting that she did not tell anyone that she had an attorney write up a new will,' one of Banks' twin sons, Jerry Banks, said. A court heard Banks was never paid more than $75,000 a year for his lengthy and stellar career with the Cubs . Rice responded in a statement that Banks trusted her to carry out his wishes, some of which were during his lifetime and others after his life, and made her promise to adhere to them. Joey Banks said the family thought Rice was helping and watching over 'Mr Cub' while he was in Chicago.

The former US Marine who killed American Sniper Chris Kyle and his friend Chad Littlefield has been moved into a psychiatric prison for evaluation of whether he should be moved into the general prison population. Eddie Ray Routh was transferred on Monday to Jester IV Unit, a psychiatric facility in Richmond, about 25 miles outside Houston. Routh was convicted on February 28 of double murder and sentenced to life in prison without parole. Scroll down for video . This new picture of Eddie Ray Routh shows him after he was admitted to the Texas prison system following his February 28 conviction for the murders of 'American Sniper' Chris Kyle and Chad Littlefield . Routh, pictured here during his trial, argued that he was insane and not criminally liable when he killed Kyle and Littlefield in 2013 . His lawyers argued that he suffered from mental illness, including PTSD from his time serving in the military, even though he never saw combat. A jury rejected his insanity defense that he should be put in a psychiatric treatment facility instead of prison. However, because of his psychiatric state, Routh could still be kept out of the general prison population and be kept in a mental facility in the prison system instead. He was transferred from a state prison near Abilene, where he underwent an initial evaluation, to Jester IV Unit, which has more advanced medical facilities. Chris Kyle (left) and Chad Littlefield (right) were gunned down after taking Routh to a shooting range . When Routh was transferred from county jail into the state prison system on March 6, a new booking mugshot was released by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. The Marine veteran appears thinner since he last appeared in public on the day of his murder conviction. The 2013 murder of Kyle, a Navy SEAL who wrote the best-selling book American Sniper, and his friend Littlefield drew nationwide attention. Kyle is the deadliest sniper in American history, with 160 confirmed kills. His trial took place not long after the release of 'American Sniper' the movie, an Oscar-winning biopic that starred Bradley Cooper as Kyle.

Ask Andy Murray about the most memorable victories in his career and quickly revealed are two aspects of his character — the modest and the contrarian. There is no mention of ending Britain’s Wimbledon men’s singles drought, nor the similar emulating of Fred Perry at the US Open, nor the flaying he gave Roger Federer on Centre Court to win the Olympic gold medal. Instead, he refers to a win over an obscure journeyman ranked No 110 in the world, and another at a now-defunct and largely-forgotten tournament in California. Andy Murray warms up for match against Kevin Anderson in Miami on Monday . The subject arises because he has the opportunity to win a 500th professional singles match on Tuesday, when he takes on South Africa’s world No 15 Kevin Anderson in the fourth round of the Miami Open. It comes around nearly 12 years after making his professional debut as a 15-year-old in Manchester. He began with a victory over Wesley Moodie, another South African. Moodie was only just outside the top 100 at the time, so it was a fair indication of his opponent’s outstanding promise. Murray does not mention that one, but recalls two of the matches that set him on his way, and most clearly the period when he was trying to establish himself on the main ATP Tour. ‘I remember certain wins, like the first one I had at Queen’s (at the then Stella Artois Championships in 2005) against Santiago Ventura,’ he says, referring to the then world No 110. ‘It might seem irrelevant now but at the time, for me, that was huge. It was big for my confidence, gave me a sense of belonging. I really remember those first few events on the tour, more than some of those in the last three or four years. Coach Amelie Mauresmo takes a photo of Murray during practice session . ‘I can remember the players I played against around then. I went to Newport (Rhode Island) after my first Wimbledon and then I played in Indianapolis and Cincinnati.’ By the end of that summer, not long after turning 18, he was already knocking on the door of the top 100 and had beaten three players inside the top 30. Early in 2006 comes the other match he picks out, the final of the indoor San Jose Open, where he beat former Wimbledon champion Lleyton Hewitt. ‘That was a first ATP title for me and was really important,’ he says. ‘I was without a coach, only 18, and Lleyton was someone I loved watching growing up. To win 7-6 in the third set at that age against someone as good as him, with no coach there, privately meant a lot. ‘I didn’t really feel the pressure — it was, “Here I am, I’m 18 and playing an ex-No 1 in the world, a great player and nothing is expected”. ‘I played (Andy) Roddick in the semis and didn’t feel nervous at all. It definitely changes over the years, you start to feel the expectation but then as you get older it changes again as you start to deal with the expectation and learn how to handle it.’ Murray takes time out to signs autographs for fans in Miami on Monday . Interestingly, ask which win took the most out of him and he instead cites one of his 155 defeats, the near five-hour loss in the 2012 Australian Open semi-final to Novak Djokovic. The Serb subsequently managed probably the most talked about recovery in history, beating Rafael Nadal two days later in nearly six hours to win the title. ‘Against Novak in the Australian Open was the hardest match, I’ve no idea how he managed to recover and win the final. I literally couldn’t walk for four days. That was the match my body hurt the most after finishing. I was extremely sore, stiff, everything hurt.’ Murray is guaranteed to overtake Nadal in next week’s rankings after his defeat on Sunday by Fernando Verdasco. The Spaniard heads to Monte Carlo to begin what is usually a triumphant roll through the European clay courts admitting he is lacking confidence and that he ‘needs to fix again’ the nerves that have affected him this season. The 28-year-old insisted there are no hidden physical issues behind his modest 15-5 record this year. Normally the mere feel of the dirt under his feet imbues Nadal with belief, and with Djokovic targeting Roland Garros above all else this year, he will need all of that.

Boston (CNN)Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's own words may determine whether he lives or dies, even if he never speaks a word at his trial. The admitted Boston Marathon bomber has sat in silence as people who lost limbs sobbed or glared at him from the witness stand. He slouched in his chair as jurors watched videos of him both before and after two nail-packed pressure cooker bombs exploded, killing three people, claiming 17 limbs and hurting more than 260 others. He didn't utter a peep as his tweets and words he had scribbled on the side of a pleasure boat flashed up on a big screen and were quoted in court. At issue: Was Tsarnaev a terrorist looking to punish the United States for policies he believed were harmful to Muslims? Or, was he a goofball stoner who simply followed the lead of his older, more radical brother? The defense team tried to portray Tsarnaev as a confused college kid who, like countless others, watches Comedy Central and cracks crass jokes. "I wanna study a broad or two," he posted on his Twitter account as @J_tsar. He jokes about not seeing commercials featuring the Trix rabbit, and about "whale watching" outside a McDonald's fast-food restaurant. Miriam Conrad, a member of his defense team, tried Tuesday to apply a more benign spin on tweets the government contends show him as a would-be jihadist eager for martyrdom and a free pass to paradise. His brother was dead and police knew who he was; they were scouring the Boston suburb of Watertown for Tsarnaev when he slipped under a tarp and climbed aboard the Slip Away II, a fishing boat dry-docked in a Watertown backyard. He hid for hours before being discovered. Bleeding, he picked up a pencil and wrote what Assistant U.S. Attorney William Weinreb called his "manifesto." Tsarnaev wrote he was jealous that his brother, Tamerlan, had achieved paradise by dying like a holy warrior; he was killed the night before during a gunbattle with police. The indictment against him says Tsarnaev helped in his brother's demise by running him over and dragging him along the road as he tried to run down police. About the bombings, Tsarnaev wrote on the boat that he didn't enjoy killing innocent civilians, but that circumstances excused it. "The US Government is killing our innocent civilians but most of you already know that," he wrote. "Know you are fighting men who look into the barrel of your gun and see heaven, now how can you compete with that. We are promised victory and we will surely get it." Streaks of blood cover portions of his message. More than a dozen bullet holes obliterate parts of words. So ended one of the biggest manhunts in U.S. history. While in the boat, he wrote that he couldn't stand to see the U.S. government "go unpunished" for killing Muslims. "We Muslims are one body, you hurt one you hurt us all." He ended with: "Now I don't like killing innocent people it is forbidden in Islam but due to said " -- the word was lost to a bullet hole -- "it is allowed." Tsarnaev's connections: Who's who . Judge George O'Toole viewed the boat Tuesday afternoon so he could rule on a defense request to show the entire boat "in context" to the jury. He turned down requests by the media to accompany him. The defense said the government only presented about 45 tweets out of about 1,100. Many were benign, about girls, cars and food as well as sleeping and disliking studying, the defense argued. On Monday, FBI agent Steven Kimball testified about two Twitter accounts used by Tsarnaev. One account shows he tweeted on the day of the April 15, 2013, bombing: . "Ain't no love in the heart of the city, stay safe people" His last tweet was on April 17. He sent it while on the run: . "I'm a stress free kind of guy" His other account carried seven tweets, including this: . "strive to be a better muslim, be greedy with your time, devote most of it to the Almighty for it is his satisfaction that you need #islam" The jury also has now seen Tsarnaev in videos, trailing his brother onto Boylston Street. Both carried heavy backpacks. He paused for four minutes, standing next to a tree in front of the Forum restaurant. In front of him stood a line of children who were leaning over the barricade and watching the race. He put his backpack down at his feet and made a phone call. Timeline of the bombings, manhunt and aftermath . When his brother's bomb went off a block away, heads swiveled in surprise in the direction of the noise. And there was Tsarnaev walking through the crowd, looking back over his shoulder as his own bomb went off 12 seconds later. Martin Richard, an 8-year-old standing in the line of kids, took the full brunt of the blast, which tore him apart. The bombs went off at 2:49 and 2:50 p.m., about the same time as he exchanged phone calls with his brother. The next video showed Tsarnaev in the crowd running. Other videos show him carrying on as usual: buying milk and swiping his card at his college gym. But FBI agents were already in pursuit, collecting store security videos and looking for somebody suspicious in the marathon crowd. By Wednesday night, authorities had a good idea who they were looking for. By Thursday night, his photo had been released to the public. By the next morning, his brother was dead, and Tsarnaev was hiding in the boat, writing of martyrdom and paradise.
Jurors see Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's writings on boat where he hid . Prosecutor calls it his "manifesto" and shows his intent to harm . Tsarnaev: "We Muslims are one body, you hurt one you hurt us all"

"Ain't no love in the heart of the city, stay safe people" His last tweet was on April 17. He sent it while on the run: . "I'm a stress free kind of guy" His other account carried seven tweets, including this: . "strive to be a better muslim, be greedy with your time, devote most of it to the Almighty for it is his satisfaction that you need #islam" The jury also has now seen Tsarnaev in videos, trailing his brother onto Boylston Street. Both carried heavy backpacks. He paused for four minutes, standing next to a tree in front of the Forum restaurant. In front of him stood a line of children who were leaning over the barricade and watching the race. He put his backpack down at his feet and made a phone call. Timeline of the bombings, manhunt and aftermath . When his brother's bomb went off a block away, heads swiveled in surprise in the direction of the noise. And there was Tsarnaev walking through the crowd, looking back over his shoulder as his own bomb went off 12 seconds later. Martin Richard, an 8-year-old standing in the line of kids, took the full brunt of the blast, which tore him apart. The bombs went off at 2:49 and 2:50 p.m., about the same time as he exchanged phone calls with his brother. The next video showed Tsarnaev in the crowd running. Other videos show him carrying on as usual: buying milk and swiping his card at his college gym. But FBI agents were already in pursuit, collecting store security videos and looking for somebody suspicious in the marathon crowd. By Wednesday night, authorities had a good idea who they were looking for. By Thursday night, his photo had been released to the public. By the next morning, his brother was dead, and Tsarnaev was hiding in the boat, writing of martyrdom and paradise. [/INST] Jurors see Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's writings on boat where he hid .

'I've ordered security to clean him up and bring him up here in full restraints.' And while she is allowing two doctors to examine the young man, she has made it clear that she has no time for this behavior. 'He certainly knows how to behave himself in the courtroom.

If you've ever gone out, got drunk and made ill-advised calls to exes, friends or family you'll know the dread and embarrassment that sets in the morning after. But now an app has been developed to save you from such shame. Drunk Mode lets you block certain contacts for a period of up to 12 hours while on a night out and only unlocks these numbers if you can solve maths puzzles. Before a night out, users of the Drunk Mode app select which contacts they want to block. They then choose the timeframe (left), which ranges from three to 12 hours. If an attempt is made to contact the blocked number a 'Drunk Quiz' appears that asks them to solve an equation (right) Drunk Mode was built by Indiana-based developers from Launch LLC. Before a night out users select which contacts they want to block and for how long. This ranges from three hours up to 12. If an attempt is made to call or message a blocked contact a 'Drunk Quiz' pop-up appears. This reveals how long is left on the Drunk Mode clock and says: 'If you're ready to disable Drunk Mode please solve the following equation.' One example is shown as '571 + 332 + 57'. Users can additionally enter a list of 'Drinking buddies' and track their movements on the app (left).

Last year, developer Bruce Yang unveiled the Sobrr app. It lets users post as many drunken updates and photos as they like, before they're automatically deleted after 24 hours. It even deletes friendships that the user made overnight, too. The self-destruct feature is similar to Snapchat and Facebook’s Slingshot, but the developers claim Sobrr is different because photos are only shared within the user’s geographic area.

The woman whose secret life as a £300-an-hour call girl made her a fortune is suing her ex-boyfriend for libel - because he claims she was never a prostitute. Dr Brooke Magnanti, 39, whose diary of her adventures working as a high class escort was published anonymously under the pen name 'Belle de Jour', is reportedly suing on the grounds that the claim damages her reputation. Her blog told of her life as a struggling graduate in London and working as call girl to fund her studies - and included her former lover Owen Morris, known only as 'The Boy'.

Writing on blog Sexonomics at the time, she said: 'I have no choice but to defend this. But am happy to do so even though it will almost certainly mean losing everything I have even when I win.'

It's one of the most common schemes tourists encounter when they visit Paris, with plenty of guides and websites warning holidaymakers to turn and walk away. Filmed in the tourist-heavy area along the river Seine in Paris, this footage shows a woman trying to pressure a holidaymaker into signing a petition, without explaining why or what it is for. The woman in the video approaches the videographer, asking if he speaks English before holding out a pen and encouraging him to sign the paper she’s holding. The footage shows a woman trying to pressure a man into signing a petition, without explaining what it is for . ‘What is it?’ the man asks, while recording the interaction. She continues to push the paper toward him, getting visibly upset when the man continues to question what exactly it is that she’s asking him to sign. She pushes the pen toward him several more times, despite the man’s protests, before giving up and stalking off angrily. According to the video maker, tourists are targeted by people on the street, who urge them to sign petitions and then demand they make a ‘donation’ to the organisation. ‘The problem is that there’s no organisation behind the petition,’ the man wrote online. The filmer is approached  by a woman, asking him to sign a petition for an unknown organisation . When he asks for more information, including what the petition is for, the woman gets visibly agitated . ‘Any money "donated" goes straight into the pockets of the scammers, or worse yet, into the pockets of their over-bosses, typically found in certain Roma communities.’ The French capital launched a 26-point anti-crime strategy in autumn last year and brought in police officers from other European countries to beef up security at top attractions such as the Eiffel Tower, Champs-Elysees, Notre Dame Cathedral and the Louvre. With about 30 million visitors a year, Paris police brought in reinforcements from Belgium, Germany, Italy, Portugal and Romania to help to patrol areas visited by tourists. It appears the plan is paying off as police announced this week that violent thefts against tourists from China, who are frequent targets for the City of Love’s criminals, have dropped by 25 per cent in 2014 compared to the same nine-month period in 2013. The petition can also be used as a distraction tactic while a partner pickpockets the tourists’ wallets or purses. ‘When in Paris, do not sign petitions,’ the man warns. ‘Ignore these individuals.’ The man also warns visitors that the scammers typically first ask if you speak English so that they can ascertain whether you’re a tourist, as opposed to a French-speaking local. Earlier this month the Chinese embassy in Paris urged tourists to stay off commuter trains that run between central Paris and France's Charles de Gaulle Airport. According to officials, there have been an unusually high number of robberies on the RER B trains since February. The RER service has long had a reputation for being a crime hotspot, but, thankfully, according to the Paris police, tourist muggings are down eight per cent over the last year. Every year foreign visitors are tricked out of small change or, worse, find themselves in dangerous situations or the victims of crime.

While this is by no means a warning against travel, being prepared and on guard can go a long way to evading confidence tricksters, wily locals and credit card bandits. Take sensible precautions against street and car crime. Don’t keep your passport, credit cards and other valuables in the same place; use the inside compartments in bags where possible. Carry your bag across your body rather than on your shoulder. Don’t be distracted around tourist attractions and cash points. Pickpockets can work in gangs: one to distract you while the other one goes into your bag. Keep your belongings close to you in restaurants and bars.

Thieves and pickpockets operate on the Paris underground, RER lines and at mainline stations, for example Gare du Nord. There have been several victims of serious assault on the RER line B, which serves Paris Charles de Gaulle and Orly airports and Paris Gare du Nord Eurostar terminus. There have also been serious assaults on RER line D, which serves the Stade de France.

For many of the scams, he believes the best advice is simply to walk away. On distraction muggings the perpetrators aim to distract you while they rob you. For example, a woman with what looks like a baby – it very often is just a doll or bundle of clothes – walks up to you and makes pleas for money for her baby. She might throw it at you too and insist you hold him/her/it for a moment. By the time you've got rid of her you'll notice your pockets have been pilfered by her accomplice.

The 26-point strategy (see box above) is focusing on Eastern European gangs, who were believed to be responsible for much of the thefts from tourists. Police said the number of Eastern Europeans who have been arrested for crimes has dropped by nearly a quarter.

<s>[INST] It's one of the most common schemes tourists encounter when they visit Paris, with plenty of guides and websites warning holidaymakers to turn and walk away. Filmed in the tourist-heavy area along the river Seine in Paris, this footage shows a woman trying to pressure a holidaymaker into signing a petition, without explaining why or what it is for. The woman in the video approaches the videographer, asking if he speaks English before holding out a pen and encouraging him to sign the paper she’s holding. The footage shows a woman trying to pressure a man into signing a petition, without explaining what it is for . ‘What is it?’ the man asks, while recording the interaction. She continues to push the paper toward him, getting visibly upset when the man continues to question what exactly it is that she’s asking him to sign. She pushes the pen toward him several more times, despite the man’s protests, before giving up and stalking off angrily. According to the video maker, tourists are targeted by people on the street, who urge them to sign petitions and then demand they make a ‘donation’ to the organisation. ‘The problem is that there’s no organisation behind the petition,’ the man wrote online. The filmer is approached  by a woman, asking him to sign a petition for an unknown organisation . When he asks for more information, including what the petition is for, the woman gets visibly agitated . ‘Any money "donated" goes straight into the pockets of the scammers, or worse yet, into the pockets of their over-bosses, typically found in certain Roma communities.’ The French capital launched a 26-point anti-crime strategy in autumn last year and brought in police officers from other European countries to beef up security at top attractions such as the Eiffel Tower, Champs-Elysees, Notre Dame Cathedral and the Louvre.

Anorexia nervosa sufferers - and those who have recovered from the eating disorder - are being asked to donate their blood so scientists can investigate the condition's hereditary links and why there is a spike in cases when women are going through puberty and menopause. The world's largest and most rigorous investigation into anorexia, led by international researchers, hopes to identify and better understand the disorder's causes and ultimately help lead to a treatment or cure that could help the estimated 53,000 Australians suffering from it. Amongst those who plan to roll up their sleeve in Sydney on Tuesday is 27-year-old founder of website lazylaw.com and blogger Kate Horman, who suffered from anorexia for ten years before she turned her life around. Scroll down for video . Amongst those who plan to give blood for research into Anorexia nervosa next Tuesday is lawyer and blogger Kate Horman, who suffered from anorexia for ten years before she turned her life around . At 17, Ms Horman began to eliminate food groups from her diet, consuming up to 20 laxatives a day and eventually began to starve herself until she weighed only a tiny 30kg. 'My hair started falling out, I was cold and tired all the time, aching all the time. I was incredibly skinny, I had no energy, was very anxious, very depressed at times and I slept a lot. I basically just shut myself out of the world. I was very sick,' Ms Horman told Daily Mail Australia. 'My mum is the only reason I am alive today - I was too sick to fight to stay alive myself. The number of times I would collapse - I lost count - and mum was just waiting for the day that I'd collapse and not get back up - that was her greatest fear. She didn't have a life outside of looking after me, she had to work, but there was no time for anything else, and it caused her a huge amount of stress and anxiety. It's not only the person with anorexia suffering, but families as well.' World-leading anorexia nervosa researcher, Professor Cynthia Bulik told Daily Mail Australia that new research has revealed that people living with anorexia nervosa had four-times the number of relatives with anorexia nervosa than those who have never had the illness. Pictured with her mother (left) who she says is 'the only reason I am alive today', Ms Horman said she was 17 when she began to eliminate food groups from her diet and consuming up to 20 laxatives a day. Eventually she starved herself until she weighed only a tiny 30kg . Pictured as a toddler, the now 27-year-old said he grandmothers comments have always stayed with her: 'At about 15... there was a photo taken of me in my bikini during the summer holidays and a few weeks later she sent a letter in the mail saying she would no longer include me in the family photo album because the pictures were no longer a true reflection of me. I was utterly gutted, ashamed and heartbroken' 'We still don't have effective treatments or medication that target anorexia nervosa and we really need to start looking at this illness through a new lens.' She said research has shown that anorexia nervosa is astonishingly six times more common in mothers, four times more common in siblings and five times more common in the children of people living with the illness. But World-leading anorexia nervosa researcher, Professor Cynthia Bulik said around 60 per cent of the reason for an individual succumbing to the eating disorder is genetic: Kate Horman (pictured), who once weighed 30kg at the height of her illness, now estimates she weighs a healthy 55kg . 'We have been doing family and twin studies so we know anorexia runs in families and we know it is inheritable. The next logical step is to find out who is predisposed to the illness by identifying those genetic markers.' Prof Bulik said a significant number of middle aged women are presenting with the disorder which she believes could be linked to menopause. 'We know puberty is a risk factor and menopause is basically the biological bookend of puberty so there needs to be more research around that risk factor.' Ms Horman believes that a number of contributing factors led her own condition to develop, including her father abandoning her when she was 11-years-old, a level of abuse she experienced as a child and her own 'high achiever' attitude. 'There were comments that were made by my grandmother which I took to heart that made me feel ashamed about my image,' she said. 'There was a point where I had started to go through puberty at about 15 - and I think all girls go through this puffy fat stage - I was never overweight, but there was a photo taken of me in my bikini during the summer holidays and a few weeks later she [my grandmother] sent a letter in the mail saying she would no longer include me in the family photo album because the pictures were no longer a true reflection of me. I was utterly gutted, ashamed and heartbroken. Professor Builk (centre) is leading a study which is investigating the condition's hereditary links and why there is a spike in cases when women are going through puberty and menopause . 'I really just wanted to fit in and be liked and be accepted. When the anorexia started to develop I was at a prestigious girls private school. It was when I started to lose some weight that I became more accepted and more popular and it spiralled out of control from there.' But Prof Bulik said the underlying causes of anorexia has been misunderstood for such a long time because so many people out there still believe the root cause of the issue is linked to sociocultural factors. Standing alone, neither genetics or environmental factors are wholly responsible for an individual succumbing to the eating disorder anorexia. Professor Builk said it is important to understand they both contribute with around 60 per cent of the reason being hereditary and 40 per cent being related to environmental factors. 'I try to get people to think about it like this- genes are the loaded gun but environment is the one pulling the trigger. The research hopes to identify and better understand the disorder's causes and ultimately help lead to a treatment or cure that could help the estimated 53,000 Australians suffering from it (stock image) 'So, if someone who is predisposed to anorexia nervosa goes on a diet because of sociocultural reasons, that could then unlock the predisposition to the disease resulting in an eating disorder,' she added. If they can get a large enough sample Prof Bulik hopes to develop a 'biological profile' by looking at genetics and environmental factors that will help will identify what constitutes a high risk individual. This could lead to massive breakthroughs in early detection and intervention, while also explaining the biological pathways that send such different messages about food. Prof Bulik explained there's a 'fundamental difference' in how people with anorexia nervosa react to hunger. 'We still don't have effective treatments or medication that target anorexia nervosa and we really need to start looking at this illness through a new lens,' Professor Bulik said . 'While some people may feel angry, nervous or stressed when they are hungry, people with the predisposition to anorexia feel like that at meal time instead and find that starvation actually calms them.' It is now up to researchers to find a treatment that can help 'calm sufferers' in a different and healthier way. While 1,100 Australians have already rolled up their sleeves and donated to the the study Professor Bulik is hoping to recruit at least 2,200 blood donors within the next two years, in Australia alone. Ms Horman said she turned her life around by changing everything about her life - quitting her job, breaking up with her boyfriend of eight years, moving out of her home and going overseas on her own . She said there were a lot of people getting involved because they felt it may help them in the future but most of the time it's because the community who have been affected by this devastating disease would give anything to make sure someone else doesn't have to go through the same tramatic experience. Ms Horman has encouraged anorexia sufferers and those who beat the illness to take part in the study . Ms Horman, who said she turned her life around by changing everything about her life - quitting her job, breaking up with her boyfriend of eight years, moving out of her home and going overseas on her own - is imploring others to take part in the research. 'There was really nothing out there for me in terms of help except my mum and my GP, that's why this study is so important to me, because there's a real lack of funding for anorexia. A medical study will lend weight to the severity of the illness,' she said. 'Anyone who has suffered or who is suffering or an eating disorder I would absolutely encourage them to give blood because without them this study is not going to be able to move forward.The more people we have the better the scientists and doctors will be able to map the genetic profile and the more accurate the study will be. 'Most importantly, eating disorder sufferers need to believe that, as hard as it might seem, it is possible to beat it. I never thought I'd get over the anorexia and recover, but I have freed myself from this illness.' Professor Bulik will be visiting Sydney next Tuesday to recruit for the ground breaking research study.

(CNN)Its famous Yellow Wall -- the largest free-standing grandstand in Europe, with a capacity of 25,000 -- has helped enable German football club Borussia Dortmund achieve the rare feat of transcending the relationship between a club and its fans. So special is this club that 3,000 of its own supporters dipped into their pockets as part of a crowdfunding exercise, started in 2013, to help finance a new documentary based on one of Dortmund's founding fathers. These Dortmund fans, along with sponsors, raised €250,000 ($265,000) in the process -- the biggest sum at the time ever raised for a film through crowdfunding in Germany. "This fan-club relationship is a legacy from our fathers, who made it clear that we have to engage and we have to fight for our club. It's part of our story," Marc Mauricius Quambusch, one of the film's three creators, told CNN. One of those fathers, and seen as the most important, was Franz Jacobi, who in 1909 along with 17 others helped found the club -- and it is "Am Borsigplatz geboren: Franz Jacobi und die Wiege des BVB" ("Born at the Borsigsquare: Franz Jacobi and the cradle of BVB") that tells his story. Founding fathers . Mention Dortmund and images are conjured up of back-to-back German Bundesliga title wins in 2011 and 2012, the Champions League triumph of 1997 or how it became the first German side to win a European competition with the Cup Winners' Cup in 1966. Without 21-year-old Jacobi and his disciples, however, none of that success may have ever materialized. For it was those brave 18 that gathered inside a pub called Wildschutz just off Dortmund's Borsigplatz, with the aim of establishing their own football club in response to the Catholic Holy Trinity chaplain Hubert Dewald's refusal to allow his youth group members the chance to kick a ball around. Jacobi and co. managed to resist Dewald's overtures and so "Ball Spiel Verein Borussia" ("Ball Games Club Borussia") was born. "When we started making the film I was aware of our story but not so deeply," Dortmund fan Quambusch says of a film inspired by a similar crowdfunding project dreamed up by Fortuna Dusseldorf supporters in 2012. "It's so interesting -- one so deep and with so much drama." "It's also a love story, it has everything you need," Quambusch adds, referring to Jacobi having originally dragged his friends to the city as he was in love with the pub owner's daughter, who he would later go on to marry. "If you were to try to write something, it would be exactly the same story as this." A legacy . Jacobi's DNA today still runs through the club that he helped to establish. Dortmund president from 1910 to 1923, Jacobi laid the foundations of a club which prides itself on harboring a real sense of involvement and belonging for its supporters. Permitted to stay at home in Germany during World War I as he was the oldest son of the family and his father had died, Jacobi wrote postcards to those club members who were away fighting, while also helping to take care of their wives and children. Heinrich Unger, Dortmund's maiden president and Jacobi's best friend, was one of those fighting, and he would go on to write what turned out to be the club's first ever song during his time in the trenches -- part of that song is still included in one of Dortmund's official anthems, "Wir Halten Fest Und Treu Zusammen" ("We are standing together"). "This was the beginning of the so-called 'Borussia Family,' where it was more than a club," Quambusch says, recalling a term used by Jacobi. "We have always been democratic and I think he always wanted the club members to have rights and votes, and to engage. I think Jacobi would be proud of the club today." The Borussia Family . Jacobi's "Borussia Family" is not a term used officially by the club and its supporters now, but its meaning continues to resonate. With Dortmund dangerously close to bankruptcy just a decade ago, fans came together to do all they could for their club, while as well as donating to fund the new film, supporters also contributed old photographs to help shed light on Jacobi's story. "I thought it was a great idea to make the film by our own people so I donated," Dortmund fan Jorn Pansch, who also donated for his mother and brother, tells CNN. "We've had so many more new members in recent years and it's great to bring them our history because what is the future without the past? "The film remembers many, many people, where we came from, which way we've grown up -- it made me proud to be a part of it and it shows fans and supporters stand behind the club." This relationship is no one-way street, though, with Dortmund in response offering up €50,000 ($53,000) towards the project, while providing it with valuable exposure via its social-network sites. All the money raised from the film will go into social projects in Dortmund -- historically an industrial and working-class area -- where the club was founded. "Today's fan engagement has partly come about from all those years ago with Jacobi, but also because Borussia is located in a city that is very emotional when it comes to football," Quambusch says. "Borussia has always had fans that have traveled for the club and tried to struggle with the club officials and are engaged. It's a typical Dortmund thing." ESPN FC German correspondent and Dortmund fan Stephan Uersfeld adds: "The core of the fans are very close still and the club as well is close to the fans. "Everyone still has the feeling they can do stuff and actually change things at the club." 'Struggle to survive' Boasting the highest average attendance in the world, as well as the Yellow Wall, there are not many more awe-inspiring sights in football than the Westfalenstadion when Dortmund fans are in full voice. In an age when one bad performance from the likes of Barcelona or Real Madrid can bring with it a chorus of boos from its supporters, Dortmund fans have stood by their team for the most part this season, despite relegation from the Bundesliga having threatened a club that was German champion in 2012. "We always need to struggle to survive in different periods, and I think maybe that's a legacy from Jacobi's time," Quambusch says of a club that was relegated in 1972 and narrowly escaped the same fate in 1986. "The ups and downs make the club more exciting, and there have been so many extreme emotions in every direction. "I think it makes the good things much more enjoyable and wonderful because if you always win and are always top of the table it becomes boring.

<s>[INST] (CNN)Its famous Yellow Wall -- the largest free-standing grandstand in Europe, with a capacity of 25,000 -- has helped enable German football club Borussia Dortmund achieve the rare feat of transcending the relationship between a club and its fans. So special is this club that 3,000 of its own supporters dipped into their pockets as part of a crowdfunding exercise, started in 2013, to help finance a new documentary based on one of Dortmund's founding fathers. These Dortmund fans, along with sponsors, raised €250,000 ($265,000) in the process -- the biggest sum at the time ever raised for a film through crowdfunding in Germany. "This fan-club relationship is a legacy from our fathers, who made it clear that we have to engage and we have to fight for our club. It's part of our story," Marc Mauricius Quambusch, one of the film's three creators, told CNN. One of those fathers, and seen as the most important, was Franz Jacobi, who in 1909 along with 17 others helped found the club -- and it is "Am Borsigplatz geboren: Franz Jacobi und die Wiege des BVB" ("Born at the Borsigsquare: Franz Jacobi and the cradle of BVB") that tells his story. Founding fathers . Mention Dortmund and images are conjured up of back-to-back German Bundesliga title wins in 2011 and 2012, the Champions League triumph of 1997 or how it became the first German side to win a European competition with the Cup Winners' Cup in 1966. Without 21-year-old Jacobi and his disciples, however, none of that success may have ever materialized. For it was those brave 18 that gathered inside a pub called Wildschutz just off Dortmund's Borsigplatz, with the aim of establishing their own football club in response to the Catholic Holy Trinity chaplain Hubert Dewald's refusal to allow his youth group members the chance to kick a ball around. Jacobi and co. managed to resist Dewald's overtures and so "Ball Spiel Verein Borussia" ("Ball Games Club Borussia") was born. "When we started making the film I was aware of our story but not so deeply," Dortmund fan Quambusch says of a film inspired by a similar crowdfunding project dreamed up by Fortuna Dusseldorf supporters in 2012. "It's so interesting -- one so deep and with so much drama." "It's also a love story, it has everything you need," Quambusch adds, referring to Jacobi having originally dragged his friends to the city as he was in love with the pub owner's daughter, who he would later go on to marry. "If you were to try to write something, it would be exactly the same story as this." A legacy . Jacobi's DNA today still runs through the club that he helped to establish. Dortmund president from 1910 to 1923, Jacobi laid the foundations of a club which prides itself on harboring a real sense of involvement and belonging for its supporters. Permitted to stay at home in Germany during World War I as he was the oldest son of the family and his father had died, Jacobi wrote postcards to those club members who were away fighting, while also helping to take care of their wives and children. Heinrich Unger, Dortmund's maiden president and Jacobi's best friend, was one of those fighting, and he would go on to write what turned out to be the club's first ever song during his time in the trenches -- part of that song is still included in one of Dortmund's official anthems, "Wir Halten Fest Und Treu Zusammen" ("We are standing together"). "This was the beginning of the so-called 'Borussia Family,' where it was more than a club," Quambusch says, recalling a term used by Jacobi. "We have always been democratic and I think he always wanted the club members to have rights and votes, and to engage. I think Jacobi would be proud of the club today." The Borussia Family . Jacobi's "Borussia Family" is not a term used officially by the club and its supporters now, but its meaning continues to resonate. With Dortmund dangerously close to bankruptcy just a decade ago, fans came together to do all they could for their club, while as well as donating to fund the new film, supporters also contributed old photographs to help shed light on Jacobi's story. "I thought it was a great idea to make the film by our own people so I donated," Dortmund fan Jorn Pansch, who also donated for his mother and brother, tells CNN. "We've had so many more new members in recent years and it's great to bring them our history because what is the future without the past? "The film remembers many, many people, where we came from, which way we've grown up -- it made me proud to be a part of it and it shows fans and supporters stand behind the club." This relationship is no one-way street, though, with Dortmund in response offering up €50,000 ($53,000) towards the project, while providing it with valuable exposure via its social-network sites. All the money raised from the film will go into social projects in Dortmund -- historically an industrial and working-class area -- where the club was founded. "Today's fan engagement has partly come about from all those years ago with Jacobi, but also because Borussia is located in a city that is very emotional when it comes to football," Quambusch says. "Borussia has always had fans that have traveled for the club and tried to struggle with the club officials and are engaged. It's a typical Dortmund thing." ESPN FC German correspondent and Dortmund fan Stephan Uersfeld adds: "The core of the fans are very close still and the club as well is close to the fans. "Everyone still has the feeling they can do stuff and actually change things at the club." 'Struggle to survive' Boasting the highest average attendance in the world, as well as the Yellow Wall, there are not many more awe-inspiring sights in football than the Westfalenstadion when Dortmund fans are in full voice. In an age when one bad performance from the likes of Barcelona or Real Madrid can bring with it a chorus of boos from its supporters, Dortmund fans have stood by their team for the most part this season, despite relegation from the Bundesliga having threatened a club that was German champion in 2012. "We always need to struggle to survive in different periods, and I think maybe that's a legacy from Jacobi's time," Quambusch says of a club that was relegated in 1972 and narrowly escaped the same fate in 1986. "The ups and downs make the club more exciting, and there have been so many extreme emotions in every direction. "I think it makes the good things much more enjoyable and wonderful because if you always win and are always top of the table it becomes boring. "When you are a Dortmund supporter you never know what you are going to get." Pride . That sentiment most likely applied to Jacobi himself, whose body today lies buried in Dortmund following the club's decision to move it into the area after originally being located 300 kilometers away in Salzgitter.

Children offered a sip of their parents’ wine at parties and social occasions are more likely to start drinking by their mid-teens, researchers warn . Children offered a sip of their parents’ wine at parties and social occasions are more likely to start drinking by their mid-teens, researchers warn. A study has found that those who had sipped alcohol by the age of 11 were five times more likely to have had a full drink within a couple of years, and four times more likely to have binged or been drunk than peers who had not tasted alcohol at an early age. The study was carried out in the US where, say researchers, some parents try to lessen the taboo appeal of drinking by following the ‘European model’ of introducing young children to alcohol under supervision at home. Lead researcher Kristina Jackson, of Brown University in Rhode Island, said: ‘Our study provides evidence to the contrary.’ Previous research suggests parental attitudes are one of the most important factors involved in when teens start drinking. A survey of UK schoolchildren found witnessing drinking at home and seeing their parents get drunk raises the risk of children having an alcoholic drink by the age of 13. In the American study, 561 Rhode Island middle-school students were surveyed periodically over three years. At the beginning of sixth grade – around the age of 11 – almost 30 per cent of pupils said they had sipped alcohol. In most cases, their parents provided it – often at a party or other special occasion. By the time the students reached the ages of 14 and 15, one in four early ‘sippers’ said they had had a full alcoholic drink, compared with 6 per cent of those who had not. Almost one in ten of early sippers had got drunk or binged – compared with just under 2 per cent of ‘non-sippers’, says a report in the Journal of Studies on Alcohol and Drugs. Researchers accounted for several factors which influence under-age drinking, including parents’ drinking habits and any history of alcoholism, as well as tendencies among the children to be impulsive and take risks. Even then there was still a connection between early sipping and risky drinking by high school, said Dr Jackson. She said it was possible little tastes of alcohol sent young children a mixed message because some may have difficulty understanding the difference between a sip of wine and having a full drink. She stressed parents should not be alarmed if they had already let their child have a taste of wine, adding: ‘We’re not saying your child is doomed.’ Dr Paul Wallace, of the charity Drinkaware, said: ‘Alcohol can harm children while they are still developing which is why the UK chief medical officers say an alcohol-free childhood as the best option. ‘It’s best to talk to your child about the risks associated with drinking. You have more influence than you might think.’ One in five teenagers have bought or tried electronic cigarettes, a major British study has found. This includes many who had never smoked regular cigarettes. It is feared youngsters hooked on the nicotine in the devices will then move on to tobacco cigarettes, putting themselves at risk of lung cancer and other diseases. Experts warn that rather than being an aid to quitting smoking, e-cigarettes are increasingly seen as ‘a recreational drug in their own right’. Professor Mark Bellis, of Liverpool John Moores University, surveyed 16,000 people aged 14 to 17 in the North West of England. A fifth said they had bought or tried e-cigarettes. More boys than girls had done so, and the rate increased among those from deprived areas, the journal BMC Public Health reports. Professor Bellis warned nicotine can affect younger brains more seriously.

Adam Ashe admits Scotland are desperate to avoid a Six Nations whitewash — even if victory over Ireland today means handing the Championship crown to old rivals England. Defeat at Murrayfield today would ensure a fourth wooden spoon and third whitewash in 12 years for the home side, who have been relegated to a mere sideshow in what is set to be thrilling finish to this year’s tournament. Adam Ashe is determined to spoil the Irish party at Murrayfield on Saturday . The day kicks off with Italy playing Wales at the Stadio Olimpico, before Scotland host Ireland and then England round things off against France at Twickenham. Wales, Ireland and England are all locked on six points each, with the destination of the title set to be decided on points difference. As things stand, England are in the driving seat with a points difference of 37 from their first four games, with Ireland on 33 and Wales off the pace with 12. The Irish will be determined to run in the tries against Scotland, so as to apply pressure to Stuart Lancaster’s men when the take on the temperamental French. Ashe, for his part, is determined to spoil the party. ‘Ireland are focusing on a big win and looking forward to taking the title but we don’t want to let that happen, regardless who goes on to win the Championship,’ said the Glasgow Warriors forward. Ashe doesn't think his selection was a gamble for such an important match . ‘I would say there is more pressure on us going into this match because we have been losing games while playing well. ‘Yes, Ireland have got a lot of pressure on them to win the Championship — but that could be taken out of their hands by us.’ Ashe, who has been brought into the Scotland side at the expense of Rob Harley, denied it was a gamble throwing him in from the start of a such an important match. The 21-year-old, who picked up a neck injury playing against New Zealand back in November, said he was now at peak fitness despite playing a total of just 94 minutes of professional rugby in 2015. ‘I played in the Munster game a few weeks ago and that was my first game back after three months out,’ said Ashe. ‘I had a bit of a reaction with my neck a few days after but it settled down quickly enough. That was always going to happen coming back from my injury. ‘Although I have not played much rugby, I am hungry for it. I am not just physically ready but also mentally ready, too. I want to go out there and give everything I’ve got against Ireland. ‘It was tough missing the first three Six Nations games through injury but I am glad to be back involved and able to do my part.’

(CNN)Lily wasn't moving when rescuers found her, hanging upside down in her mother's smashed car. It had flipped over into a frigid Utah river half a day before, and the baby was still strapped in her seat. As Officer Jared Warner dashed with the 18-month-old in his arms to an ambulance, she was barely alive. But she's doing better, her family said Monday. "Her improvement is astounding. Right now she's watching 'Dora (the Explorer)' and singing '(The) Wheels on the Bus' with Grandpa. She is smiling and laughing for family members. We're blown away by Lily's progress and so grateful to her rescuers," they said. Lily's mother, Lynn Jennifer Groesbeck, died in the crash that had landed their car on its roof in the Spanish Fork River. She was 25 years old. Lily might have died unseen with her mother, had a man not gone fishing in that particular spot Saturday. The angler waded into the river around noon, then noticed the car wheels-up in the water. "Where the car was, you couldn't see it from the roadway," police Lt. Cory Slaymaker said. The fisherman called emergency dispatch. Police and fire rescuers arrived and sprang into the water. The rest of what happened is now a frenetic blur for Officer Bryan DeWitt. "I don't remember doing anything but just doing it," he said. The water was so cold that, when the rescue was over, seven of the men involved had to be treated for hypothermia. They heaved the car onto its side and saw Groesbeck in the driver's seat. It was clear to them that she was dead. Then they noticed the baby. "She was definitely unconscious and not responsive," Warner said. But she was still alive, and rescuers were delighted to see it. She was still strapped into her seat, where she may have been for 14 hours, if the wreck occurred when police believe it did. The night before, a man living nearby heard a loud crash and stepped outside to check, but he saw nothing unusual, police said, and dismissed it. That was at about 10:30 p.m. on Friday. Groesbeck's car had probably just struck a bridge embankment. "The driver's side tire went up the cement barrier on the south end of the bridge, launching this woman and her baby into the freezing water," Slaymaker told CNN affiliate KUTV. The angler came along around 12:30 p.m. on Saturday, 14 hours later. Groesbeck's death is tragic, but the survival of baby Lily is a story filled with hope. But just how did the baby survive the ordeal? Above all, said CNN senior medical correspondent Elizabeth Cohen, the biggest factor was the car seat. Lily was in the proper car seat and the seat appears to have been properly attached, Cohen said. Even though the child was trapped and upside down, her body remained in the seat and above the frigid water. Doctors say that such low temperatures are dangerous, but would be even more so if the baby were wet. Dry cold temperatures are more survivable than wet cold temperatures, Cohen said. Another factor may have been that the girl, as a toddler, has baby fat. If she had been an infant, it might have been a different story, Cohen said. It's a reminder that the human body is tough. Lily apparently survived for 14 hours in extreme cold, without food or drink. A mystery arose from the rescue: The police officers who entered the water say they heard a voice calling for help. The mother was dead, but the officers said that they heard an adult's voice calling to them. "The four of us heard a distinct voice coming from the car," Warner told CNN. "To me, it didn't sound like a child's voice." The voice gave the rescuers a surge of adrenaline needed to push the vehicle upright, he said. The mother was dead. The child was unconscious, but her eyelids were fluttering, and the rescuers knew she was alive, Warner said. It's one of those things that doesn't have an explanation, he said about the voice. "It felt like I could hear someone telling me, 'I need help,'" DeWitt told CNN affiliate KSL. "It was very surreal, something that I felt like I could hear." Tyler Beddoes, a third officer at the scene, said the same. "All I know is that it was there, we all heard it, and that just helped us to push us harder, like I say, and do what we could to rescue anyone inside the car," he told CNN's "Anderson Cooper 360." The river is 10 feet deep in some places, police said, but the car hit a shallower spot. Images showed it only partly covered by water. Lily was not submerged, said Police Lt. Matt Johnson. Firefighter Paul Tomadakis freed her from the wreck. He "grabbed the baby in my arm, raised its head up out of water, as I tried to release the seat belt," he said. Then Warner took Lily into his arms. "The child was passed to me and I ran up and climbed into the ambulance with the child," he said. Police have no explanation for the wreck. No alcohol or drugs were in play, they told KUTV. There were no skid marks leading up to the impact. A tow truck hauled Groesbeck's car out of the river, and it will be inspected for possible mechanical failures. Groesbeck's family has set up a gofundme page for donations to help with medical expenses for Lily, and funeral costs for her mother. Late Monday, it had reached more than $35,500, surpassing its goal of $8,000. CNN's Melanie Whitley, Vivien Kuo, Elizabeth Cohen, Joe Sutton Jackie Castillo and Mariano Castillo contributed to this report.

As political grillings go, it was not exactly Jeremy Paxman. Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg today faced a grilling from TOWIE star Joey Essex, who seemed a little confused about the Liberal Democrats’ name, and what the election was all about.

And then used to be a party called the Social Democrats. ‘This was before my time, they got together and created the Liberal Democrats.’ ‘Oh so you teamed up?,’ said Essex. 'I wondered that because it’s a weird word, innit? It’s got cats in it.’ Laughing, Mr Clegg tried to put him right. ‘It’s not “cats”, it’s “crats”.’ The penny finally dropped. ‘Oh it’s “crats”. I thought it was “cats”. Oh wicked.’ Mr Clegg tried to explain the history of the merger between two rival parties in 1988 which saw the creation of the Liberal Democrats . The conversation moved on to the merits of power, and just how much Mr Clegg wields. ‘You are basically like, you rule this country right?’ ‘I’ve been Deputy Prime Minister for the last five years,’ Mr Clegg replied. ‘That’s sick. I sort of rule Essex. I was going to say, someone else will be Prime Minister next? Are you going to be Prime Minister?' The Lib Dem leader, currently on around 8 per cent in the polls, had to admit this was unlikely. ‘I would love to be Prime Minister but I’ve got to be open with you Joey, I don’t think I am going to win this election outright. ‘I do think that like last time the debate will be about which mixture of parties in government. If you speak to Ed Miliband and David Cameron they will say they are going to win outright, they won’t do. ‘Everybody knows they are not going to win outright.’ Essex is due to interview Labour’s Ed Miliband and Tory leader David Cameron during the election campaign. Mr Clegg said that he should challenge them both on the idea that either of them can win outright. ‘When you speak them, they will tell you both that they will win.

Essex is due to interview Labour’s Ed Miliband and Tory leader David Cameron during the election campaign . Somewhat stating the obvious, Essex admitted that he does not ‘really know much about all the politics’. It was only his second day in his job as a roving reporter on the campaign trail and so far ‘at the moment to me everyone just seems to want to win’. ‘Everybody is fighting for the same position. I don’t really get it,’ he said, telling Mr Clegg: ‘You’ve taught me a lot about Liberal Democrats. At least I know the name now.’ Pointing to his all-white outfit, he added: ‘I was meant to be wearing a suit today but they didn’t tell me I was meeting a leader.’ Essex later said he thought was a 'nice bloke, to be fair', adding: 'He was honest, he told me he weren't going to win - I think honesty is the best policy. 'If - not saying I'm going to be Prime Minister - I was going to lose something and genuinely thought I was going to lose, I would be honest and say I was going to lose. I think that was quite a nice thing of him to say. He was a nice guy.' He added that he was 'excited' about meeting the Labour and Tory leaders: 'David Cameron is the Prime Minister. 'But to be fair, to me, they are all prime ministers. They're all on TV, they're all doing good things, they're all trying to make people happy, so in my eyes they're all nice people really - like, at the moment anyway, until I maybe meet one of them and he's not nice. 'But they're all sweet at the moment.' Asked if there were any words politicians should use, Essex laughed as he replied: 'They could use reem. No, I'm joking. They could use that, but they won't.'

Motorsport fans watched in horror on Saturday as two classic racing cars which have been lovingly maintained for decades crashed into each other while driving around Goodwood circuit. The unique Mercedes SLS 300 'Porter Special', worth an estimated £4million, which was being driven by F1 and Le Mans legend Jochen Mass crashed into the back of a Lister-Jaguar Knobbly - thought to be worth around £1million. The one-of-a-kind 1955 Mercedes - originally made out of aluminium - had been transported to the Sussex racetrack from German collector Dr Klaus Lahr especially for the Salvadori Cup race. Scroll down for video . This is the moment a £4million Mercedes from the 1950s crashed into the back of a £1million Lister-Jaguar at Goodwood racetrack on Saturday . Spectators watched in shock as the Mercedes - driven by racing legend Jochen Mass - ploughed into the Jaguar as it exited a chicane . The rear of the Jaguar - which was slowing to enter the pit lane - was wrenched upwards, while the front of the classic Mercedes disintergrated . Driver Mass crashed into the back of the 1959 Jaguar driven by Tony Wood during the qualifying round for the race and the famous racing car had to be winched onto a tow-truck. The Lister, owned by Barry Wood, was entering the pits when Mass powered out of a chicane to find the slowing Lister in front of him. He slammed on the brakes but his wheels locked up, causing the Mercedes to smash into the rear of the Lister. It brought the qualifying period to an abrupt halt with stewards running onto the track to help both drivers and deal with fuel which had leaked onto the Tarmac. Both drivers emerged from their cars unscathed but were taken to the medical room as a precaution. The cars did not fare so well however, with both suffering serious damage. The Mercedes came off the worst, with the front-end badly dented, meaning it could not be moved on its own. The back of the Jaguar was bent out of shape by the force of the impact. It is now known whether the vehicles were insured, but it is feared repairs could cost more than £100,000. At the time, Wood was the second fastest in the Lister while Mass was 22nd. The Mercedes is unique, having been created by a US mechanic in the 1950s, and it is feared it will be difficult to restore to its former glory . The Jaguar fared equally badly in the accident and was left with the rear badly twisted into the air and damage to both sets of wheels . Stewards rushed to deal with fuel which spilled onto the track and the race was stopped. Luckily, the drivers of both cars were unharmed . A statement from Goodwood Motorsport said: 'There was a collision during qualifying for the Salvadori Cup on the afternoon of Saturday, March 21, 2015, involving car 23, a Lister-Jaguar 'Knobbly' driven by Tony Wood and car 8, a Mercedes-Benz 300 SLS "Porter Special" driven by Jochen Mass. 'Following the contact between the two cars, both of which stopped close to the pit lane entrance, the session was immediately red-flagged and did not resume. 'In line with our safety protocols, both drivers were taken to the circuit medical centre for precautionary checks and were released shortly afterwards to enjoy the remainder of the weekend. 'Unfortunately, neither car was able to be repaired in time to take part in Sunday's race and neither driver was able to take any further part in the on-track action.' The SLS started out life as a Mercedes 300 SL Gullwing but was modified in the US in 1956 after a being involved in another serious crash. It was once well known in US racing circles as the 'Mercedes-Corvette'. Th accident happened at the 73rd Goodwood Members Meeting, in which cars from all generations are taken around the track for fans . Stewards were unable to move the classic Mercedes and it had to be lifted on to a tow truck before being removed from the famous circuit . Side-view pictures show the damage to the front of the car, which will be returned to its owner in Germany in a much worse state than it left .

Yes, I would - but the way I'm going...' Two goals against QPR took his tally for the season to 26. That's a record you simply cannot ignore. Hodgson certainly won't. The only question for the England manager now is if he utilises the striker in the Euro 2016 qualifier against Lithuania or ease him in during the friendly against Italy. His first goal against Rangers showed great bravery, risking a hefty blow to the head to glance home Andros Townsend's free kick. His second showed great composure, skipping round Rob Green before finishing into an empty net. He ticks every box. But his goals only tell part of the story. Kane's heat map (right) in the opposition half showed he posed a greater threat than Austin (left) Twice he showed excellent vision to set up marauding right-back Kyle Walker with goal scoring opportunities, executing both passes with unerring accuracy. Had it not been for Green's heroics in Rangers' goal, Kane could easily have had four by the time Craig Pawson blew the final whistle.

A nine-year-old boy wearing only pajamas and no shoes fled to his Minnesota school as his step mom allegedly chased him yelling 'I'm going to kill you'. The child, who has not been named, ran into Dayton's Bluff Achievement Plus Elementary where teachers found him hysterically crying on Wednesday around 3.40pm, according to the criminal complaint. Shortly after, the principal told police his step-mom, Tashay Caprice Johnson, 24, came running into the school. A boy, nine, told police he ran to his school after his step mom allegedly told him she was going to kill him (Tashay Caprice Johnson pictured above) Johnson, 24, was arrested following the incident and charged with making terroristic threats and malicious punishment of a child . The boy claimed Johnson hit him on the head with a baseball bat, struck him in the face with her fist and also hit him in the arm with a belt before telling him she was going to grab a gun and kill him. Johnson was arrested and faces up to five years in prison if convicted of both charges including making terroristic threats and malicious punishment of a child. Police said they found injuries that matched the trauma the boy described including swelling on the left side of his head and marks on his left arm that appeared to be from a belt, according to 11Alive. They also found scratches near his left eye and the right side of his neck. While officers were speaking to Johnson at her home, they later found the baseball bat and arrested her. Johnson, right, denied assaulting the boy and told police she had agreed with his dad to have him sit in the corner as punishment but he kept running around the house . On Wednesday after the boy ran into the school, the principal blocked Johnson from entering until they could piece together what had transpired. The boy told police earlier that day his teacher had walked him home so that she could talk to his parents about his behavioral problems at school. Once the teacher left their home, that is when he said Johnson told him he was going to get a 'whooping'. After she allegedly hit him and said she was going to get the gun, he fled from home. Johnson denied assaulting the boy or threatening to kill him, and she did not know how he got the belt marks on his arm, according to Twin Cities. She told police that after the teacher left their home, she spoke to the child's father and they both decided to have him sit in the corner as punishment, but he ran around the house instead, the complaint said. Following Johnson's arrest, the boy's father jumped and said 'I whoop that kid but it doesn't do any good'. If she is convicted of the charges, Johnson faces $10,000 in fines for the terroristic threat charge and $3,000 in fines for the malicious punishment charge, according to KSTP. The principal of Dayton's Bluff Achievement Plus Elementary (above) told police the boy ran into the school hysterically crying and yelling his step mom was going to kill him .

Johnson, right, denied assaulting the boy and told police she had agreed with his dad to have him sit in the corner as punishment but he kept running around the house . On Wednesday after the boy ran into the school, the principal blocked Johnson from entering until they could piece together what had transpired. The boy told police earlier that day his teacher had walked him home so that she could talk to his parents about his behavioral problems at school. Once the teacher left their home, that is when he said Johnson told him he was going to get a 'whooping'. After she allegedly hit him and said she was going to get the gun, he fled from home. Johnson denied assaulting the boy or threatening to kill him, and she did not know how he got the belt marks on his arm, according to Twin Cities. She told police that after the teacher left their home, she spoke to the child's father and they both decided to have him sit in the corner as punishment, but he ran around the house instead, the complaint said. Following Johnson's arrest, the boy's father jumped and said 'I whoop that kid but it doesn't do any good'. If she is convicted of the charges, Johnson faces $10,000 in fines for the terroristic threat charge and $3,000 in fines for the malicious punishment charge, according to KSTP. The principal of Dayton's Bluff Achievement Plus Elementary (above) told police the boy ran into the school hysterically crying and yelling his step mom was going to kill him .

From Burnley to Barcelona, the signposts all point to trouble ahead for Manchester City and their beleaguered manager Manuel Pellegrini. It will require his best win as City boss against Barca at the Nou Camp on Wednesday for Pellegrini to save the club’s Champions League dream and, possibly, his job. But City set out for Spain on Monday on the back of a dismal defeat at Turf Moor and a withering assessment of their shortcomings from Burnley’s match-winner George Boyd. George Boyd celebrates his sweet strike that saw Burnley upset Manchester City on Saturday . Burnley's Ben Mee tackles Pablo Zabaleta with the kind of physical presence he says helped them win . The Scot accused the Premier League champions of lacking both the appetite for a physical battle and willingness to track back and defend. It was something Burnley detected when they recovered to draw 2-2 at the Etihad in December and exploited again after analysing City’s defeat at Anfield earlier this month. ‘You saw it recently against Liverpool, they don’t track back as well as they go forward so we knew we could exploit that and we did,’ said Boyd, who scored with the sweetest of strikes after an hour. ‘I think it was playing to our strengths and getting in their faces that got us the win. You find with the bigger teams if you get in amongst them, press them hard and tackle they don’t really like it, and we did that. ‘I don’t think Barcelona will be in their faces as much as us and playing the long balls we play, but I thought we fully deserved the victory. ‘We didn’t think they would play as strong a team with Wednesday in mind, but obviously they came here to win and we were better than them.’ Boyd drills home his left-footed shot for the famous win against a side that goes to Barcelona on Wednesday . City boss Manuel Pellegrini is under pressure although his future will be decided at the close of the season . It is not the first time City’s work ethic has been questioned this season, but there appeared to be a deeper malaise. It was as bad as anything in the post-title slump under Roberto Mancini. They were flat, dull and at times almost uninterested. Everything that Burnley weren’t. Sportsmail’s Jamie Redknapp said it was the kind of performance that gets a manager the sack. No wonder Pellegrini’s agent was touting him to Napoli last week. There won’t be any knee-jerk reactions from City, however, Pellegrini’s performance will be assessed at the end of the season. City prepare to kick off after conceding the first goal at Turf Moor that they were unable to peg back . Edin Dzeko's attempt on goal is blocked by some desperate Burnley defence . The Chilean could yet mastermind a recovery in Barcelona and take City into the quarter-finals of the Champions League for the first time, having emerged from the first leg only 2-1 down. But apart from Samir Nasri and Aleksandar Kolarov this was close to the team that Pellegrini is expected to put out at the Nou Camp and they lost to a side battling relegation. Instead of making up ground on Chelsea in the title race, City are now in danger of getting swallowed up in the chase for places in next season’s Champions League and that would test the patience of Pellegrini’s employers. He maintains that the situation is not as bad as the corresponding period last season when City went out of the FA Cup and Champions League in the space of four days, losing at home to Wigan and away to Barcelona. The 61-year-old said: ‘It’s always the case before a big game that maybe the minds are not completely on this game,’ he said. ‘But I don’t think it was a case of them not trying. I don’t think Burnley had any chances to score apart from the free-kick which led to the beautiful goal. ‘Of course we are not doing well. You can see that from the amount of points we have dropped. The only thing I can tell you is that it’s not down to the effort of the players. They want, but maybe they can’t at the moment.’

Still the sweetheart: Dame Vera will be central to the festivities . Dame Vera Lynn is to play a central role in a long weekend of spectacular celebrations to mark the 70th anniversary of VE Day. The wartime singer – who will be 98 on Friday – is to be included in events to commemorate seven decades since the end of the Second World War in Europe on May 8. Ministers will today announce a three-day spectacular, including wartime-themed parties, the lighting of a chain of beacons, a veterans’ parade, an RAF fly-past and a 1940s-themed celebrity pop concert. Government sources said they were ‘pulling out all the stops’ for the commemorations – which start the day after the Election – because it is likely to be the last major anniversary to fall during the lifetime of Second World War participants. Although now too frail to travel to the events, Dame Vera – the Forces’ Sweetheart – will be consulted over the arrangements and is likely to provide either a written tribute statement or video message. Under the plans, a service of remembrance will be held at The Cenotaph on VE Day itself, including a two-minute silence at 3pm marking the moment Winston Churchill announced the end of the war. Schools will hold VE Day-themed assemblies or tea parties, and during the evening a chain of over 100 flaming beacons will be lit across the UK. On Saturday May 9, cathedrals will ring their bells in celebration and a 1940s-themed concert will be held at London’s Horse Guards Parade. The concert, to be broadcast live on BBC1, is expected to feature many of the stars who appeared in a similar 60th anniversary VE Day concert, such as the singers Katie Melua and Katherine Jenkins. May 10 will be marked by a service of thanksgiving at Westminster Abbey, followed by a veterans’ parade which will pass along Whitehall and under the HM Treasury balcony where Churchill appeared before VE Day crowds. Couples celebrate VE Day - which marked the formal conclusion of Hitler's war  - in Trafalgar Square in 1945 . A reception for 2,000 veterans will be hosted by the Royal British Legion in St James’s Park, coinciding with a fly-past by a Hurricane, Spitfire and Lancaster. Dame Vera boosted the troops’ morale by performing songs including We’ll Meet Again and The White Cliffs of Dover at concerts in Egypt, India and Burma. Last night, she said: ‘I am sorry I will not be able to celebrate the 70th anniversary of VE Day in London in person, but my thoughts are with all who take part. We must always remember those who fought and all those who gave their lives on our behalf.’ A Downing Street source said: ‘Everyone wants Dame Vera to be involved if possible.’

Alan Catterall, 54, was burned to death at work when the door slammed shut on the industrial oven he was cleaning . A business has been fined £200,000 over the death of a worker who became trapped inside an industrial oven which was then accidentally turned on by his future son-in-law. Alan Catterall, 54, died while carrying out cleaning work at Runcorn-based Kayak company, Pyranha Mouldings in December 2010. The father-of-three from Halewood, Liverpool, had gone inside to clean molten plastic escaping from a mould while the oven was switched off after a fault developed. Liverpool Crown Court heard the oven had developed a fault with a guide rail bearing and had been shut down for maintenance so the bearing could be fixed. But once the maintenance work had been completed the oven was switched back on by colleague Mark Francis, who was engaged to Mr Catterall's daughter, and put into warm-up mode. A few minutes later smoke was seen coming from the oven and when operators opened the door to find the source they discovered Mr Catterall's body. He was pronounced dead at the scene. The court heard Mr Catterall suffered severe burns and died of shock after becoming trapped in the large bespoke oven, which was designed to accommodate the moulds for two kayaks. He was a senior supervisor at the company, which manufactures kayaks and canoes, and had worked there for 12 years. Pyranha Mouldings was also found guilty of two charges under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974. Peter Mackereth, 60, managing director of the company, was convicted of two charges under Section 37 of the Health and Safety at Work Act. Sentencing was adjourned until today when the trial judge, sitting at the Royal Courts of Justice in London, imposed the £200,000 fine. Mackereth was given a suspended sentence and a fine of £25,000. The judge imposed a total prison sentence of nine months, suspended for two years. Mr Justice MacDuff awarded costs against the two defendants jointly in the total sum of £90,000. The judge said there were 'a number of serious failings in the design of this and other moulding ovens' - the design and commissioning of which had been done in-house. Mr Justice MacDuff said Mr Catterall was 'by all accounts the most lovely of men', devoted to his family 'and loved by all'. 'He was a committed worker and had given 100% and more to his employers,' said the judge. His wife Pearl had 'behaved with dignity throughout'. He added: 'Her loss, I know, is nearly unbearable and she knows that I can do nothing to bring back her husband.' Mr Catterall, 54, died while carrying out cleaning work at Runcorn-based Kayak company, Pyranha Mouldings in December 2010. Liverpool Crown Court heard the oven had developed a fault with a guide rail bearing and had been shut down for maintenance so the bearing could be fixed.  The company was today fined £20,000 . When announcing the fine to be imposed on the company, the judge said that what happened was 'in the true sense' an accident: 'It was an avoidable accident but nevertheless an accident; an accident courted by no-one.' Referring to Mr Catterall's family, the judge said: 'At least they are able to understand that their loss was not caused by a deliberate unlawful act; rather it was a result of oversight, negligence, sins of omission and not of commission, but sins nevertheless.' Sentencing Mackereth, he said: 'You do not need me to tell you how far short of your duty you fell. It was repeatedly brought home to you at the trial. 'You will have to live with the consequences of your actions for the rest of your life. The company may only act through its directors and senior officers. 'Whereas others were also involved, you had to accept that you took the lead in designing and commissioning these ovens. The company's failure was also your failure - although the full responsibility does not fall on your shoulders. Rightly you were not charged with gross negligence manslaughter.' The judge said he fully accepted that Mackereth and Mr Catterall were friends 'and that you were also devastated by the loss'. He told Mackereth: 'I have given the matter careful thought and have reached the conclusion that I should mark the gravity of your offending by imposing a prison sentence, albeit that there are circumstances which enable me to suspend that sentence.'

Roy Hodgson is confident in Harry Kane's ability to shine for England, it is just a case of whether there is space for him in the upcoming squad. This has been quite the season for the 21-year-old, whose 24 goals in all competitions is far and away the best tally from any English striker this term. That form has impressed Three Lions boss Hodgson, who has strongly hinted recently that Kane will earn a first senior call-up in two weeks' time. England manager Roy Hodgson is open to the possibility of calling up Tottenham striker Harry Kane . The Spurs front man has is a regular in the England Under 21 set up and has been in great form for his club . Kane was far from his best in the Capital One Cup final but Hodgson said he thinks the striker is 'ready' It is not just the Spurs man vying for a striking berth, though, with a number of other in-form, uncapped players hoping to be involved against Lithuania and Italy. Saido Berahino, Danny Ings and Charlie Austin have all impressed for their clubs this season - but it is Kane who is the main talking point. 'He's in my thoughts of course, he deserves to be,' Hodgson said, speaking at the London Football Awards, which raises funds for national charity, Willow. 'He's scoring goals for one of our top teams in the Premier League but I know him anyway, he's done a lot of good work for the Under-21s. Burnley striker Danny Ings (right) is among the names for a call up to the Three Lions first team . QPR's Charlie Austin (left) and West Brom's Saido Berahino (right) have both been in fine scoring form . 'What pleases me most is young players are getting their chance to play. In the past 19, 20, 21-year-olds would be loaned out or would have to sit back and wait for their chance. Now more and more of them are taking the chance when they get it. 'I'm delighted for him and we'll see when I select my squad at the end of month if he's in it.' Asked whether Kane was ready to make the step up to the senior side, Hodgson said: 'He's ready. If he wasn't ready he wouldn't be playing for Tottenham and scoring lots of goals. 'The question you ask is has the player got the quality and talent we're looking for and is there a space for him? 'If he comes in then someone's going to drop out and most forwards we've got have done quite well in the autumn. 'But I can't include everyone unfortunately. It's not always a question of are they good enough, it's a question of is there space at this time.' However Kane is the one gaining all the attention having scored 24 goals in all competitions this season . Wayne Rooney, Daniel Sturridge and Danny Welbeck look set to be involved in the squad, while Rickie Lambert and Jermain Defoe are other experienced forward options when the national team reconvene after a four-month break. 'I am looking forward to it, we all are,' Hodgson said. 'Certainly I and my coaching staff are. I hope the players are looking forward to it, too. 'It will be nice to see them again. We did plan a little meeting in January but we found another way of staying in touch with them. 'It will be nice to see them physically again and I hope to see them in as good a shape as I thought they were last autumn.' Hodgson was speaking at the London Football Awards, which raises vital funds for Willow - the only national charity working with seriously ill young adults aged 16 to 40 to fulfil uplifting and unforgettable special days.

A couple who poured $400,000 into a two-bedroom cottage in a bid to turn it into a stylish family home have been left disappointed after it failed to attract a single bid at auction. The couple paid $1.01 million for the terrace house in Redfern, an inner-city suburb in Sydney, 18 months ago, Domain reports.

The couple had hoped to sell the house on Saturday after their real estate agents, Bresic Whitney, listed it with a price guide of more than $1.95 million. However, despite a current clearance rate of 84 per cent in Sydney’s auction market the house at 1 Charles Street failed to earn a single bid from the 30 people who came to see it go under the hammer.

The father of a man killed by the FBI in the investigation of Boston Marathon bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev is suing the agency for $30million. Abdulbaki Todashev, father of then-27-year-old Ibragim Todashev, said he will file a notice of claim in the death of his son, who was shot by Special Agent Aaron McFarlane the night of May 21, 2013. The claim will lead to a wrongful death lawsuit, and the elder Todashev is also alleging negligence by the FBI for hiring McFarlane, who had a checkered past. Scroll down for video . Warning: graphic image below . Ibragim Todashev, 27, was shot by FBI agent Aaron McFarlane during investigations into the Boston bombings. His father Abdulbaki has filed a notice of claim alleging wrongful death . Todashev (left) was repeatedly questioned by federal agents in the aftermath of the 2013 Boston Marathon bombings. Abdulbaki Todashev (right) has previously said that 'FBI bandits' killed his son . The agent settled two police brutality lawsuits while at the Oakland Police Department and allegedly falsified reports before joining Boston's FBI, according to the Boston Globe. Todashev is represented by the Council on American–Islamic Relations, who says that his son 'did not pose a threat of serious bodily harm to McFarlane or any other person' while being questioned about the Boston Bombings and a 2011 murder. The Department of Justice and a Florida State Attorney’s Office have both cleared McFarlane of wrongdoing in the shooting at Ibragim Todashev's Orlando apartment. Both official reports said that the agent acted in self-defense after being attacked by Todashev, a trained martial arts fighter. The Russian immigrant, who lived in Massachusetts before moving to Florida, was reportedly writing a confession for involvement in the 2011 killing of three drug dealers in Waltham, a suburb of Boston, when he threw a coffee table and lunged at McFarlane with a broom. FBI agent McFarlane and two Massachusetts state troopers were interrogating Todashev for six hours before he was shot. The Chechen Orlando resident had reportedly been writing a confession linked to a murder case . Todashev was friends with Boston Marathon bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev (left) after training with him. Tamerlan,  26, was killed shortly after the 2013 attack, and his brother Dzhokar, (right, then 19) is now on trial . He was shot seven times in two bursts of fire, including once on the top of the head. Abdulbaki Todashev, in Moscow, says that the agent killed his son 'in cold blood,' according to MSNBC. He has previously said that 'FBI bandits' had been behind the death. Two Massachusetts state troopers were also present and CAIR Florida says that 'none of the agents present sought to intervene to prevent the excessive force, though able.' Lawyers for the group also say that McFarlane allegedly falsified police reports and was misusing government money by working for the FBI while accepting disability payments from California. Abdulbaki Todashev also alleges negligence in the FBI's hiring of McFarlane . A statement from the Todashev family, who buried Ibragim in Chechnya, Russia, said they want to 'draw public attention to the illegal practices, abuses of power, and civil rights violations by the FBI. FBI internal investigations cleared every officer in 150 shootings since 1993, according to a 2013 investigation by the New York Times. CAIR also faults the agency for 'allowing of agents to conduct potentially charged interviews in people's homes'. Ibragim Todashev was approached by FBI almost immediately following the Boston bombings, and had questioned him repeatedly and confiscated his electronic devices before the shooting. The six-hour Orlando interrogation occurred in the aftermath of the 2013 Boston bombings, where Todashev's friend Tamerlan Tsarnaev, then 26, is thought to have killed three and injured more than 200 with homemade explosives. Tsarnaev, 26, was killed in the manhunt that followed the attack. His friend Todashev, who had trained at the same boxing gym as the attacker, told agents that the bombings were 'horrible and unnecessary,' according to the claim of notice. The episode that led to his death happened after the man's girlfriend had been taken to an immigration detention center after allegedly refusing FBI agents' request to inform them of his activities. The claim of Abdulbaki Todahsev (left) against the FBI is being handled by the Council on American–Islamic Relations's Florida office, including CAIR Tampa executive director Hassan Shibly (center) A witness Todashev had brought to his interrogation was allegedly sent away shortly before his friend was shot.

Hypoplastic left heart syndrome is a condition where the left lower pumping chamber of the heart does not develop properly so is much smaller than usual. The mitral valve between the left ventricle and the upper left filling chamber is often closed or very small. In addition, the main blood vessel that carries blood from the heart to the rest of the body is also smaller than usual. This means that the heart is unable to pump blood around the body effectively. Hypoplastic left heart syndrome is a form of congenital heart disease - a term used to describe a problem with the heart's structure and function due to abnormal development before birth. Hypoplastic left heart syndrome is a condition in which the left lower pumping chamber of the heart (left ventricle) does not develop properly. In children with the condition, the valve between the left ventricle and the upper left filling chamber (left atrium) if often closed or small. The main blood vessel that carried blood from the heart to the rest of the body is also smaller than usual. This means the heart is unable to pump blood effectively around the body.

<s>[INST] A baby who only has half a heart has defied the odds after suffering a stroke and battling through four open heart surgeries. Jack Stevens was born with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS) which means the left side of his heart did not form properly. Jack, from Hartlepool, County Durham, has spent half of his life in hospital after having four open heart surgeries and five other operations. He has also suffered a stroke and had to be resuscitated three times. Jack Stevens, now 15 months, was born with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS) which means the left side of his heart did not form properly. He underwent four open heart surgeries at just one week old . Jack survived a total of nine operations (he is pictured, left, after the last procedure), but then suffered a stroke and had to be resuscitated three times. He is now at home with his parents (right) Jack recovered well from the operations and has recently had his feeding tube removed for the first time. He is pictured here before his third open heart surgery procedure. But made a miraculous recovery and recently had his feeding tube removed for the first time. Now, at 15 months old, he is at home with his parents, . His father Chris Stevens, 30, said: 'He's been through so much in such a short space of time but he's doing brilliantly. 'We knew about his condition before he was born and he spent the first five months of his life in hospital. 'He had to have open heart surgery when he was just one-week-old and he's had three more since. 'Jack was only 4lbs 4oz when he was born and the condition has slowed his development. 'It was really difficult watching him lying in his hospital bed for so long surrounded by machines and tubes. 'But we knew it was best for him and he's battled through everything - he's a real fighter.' Jack, who is now at home with his parents Chris Stevens, 30 and Ashton Hodge, 27. The family are pictured before Jack's fourth open heart surgery . Jack only weighed 4lbs 4oz when he was born, and the heart condition has slowed his development . Jack had to be given up to 12 different medications up to four times a day, but now only needs three different medications via a syringe. He is pictured here (left and right) at one years old . At just one-week-old, Jack underwent three stages of the Norwood procedure - a surgery performed on the heart to improve blood flow. He was eventually allowed home for the first time in April last year but returned back to Freeman Hospital, Newcastle, three months later after suffering a stroke. He then endured a string of gruelling operations and is finally at home with father Chris, and mother, Ashton Hodge, 27, a charity worker. He is now on the brink of taking his first steps and speaking for the first time. Mr Stevens, an engineer, said: 'It's a lifelong condition so he will need a transplant at some point in his life but surgeons don't know when yet. 'He'll never be able to do any real physical activity. 'Jack had to be given up to 12 different medications up to four times a day but he only needs three different medications via a syringe at the moment. 'He's also had his feeding tube removed for the very first time last month which is fantastic. Mr Stevens, an engineer, said: 'It's a lifelong condition so he will need a transplant at some point in his life but surgeons don't know when yet' Mr Stevens said: 'He's almost walking now and he mumbles all the time so hopefully he'll say his first word soon. We're both so proud of him - he's a very inspirational boy' 'He's almost walking now and he mumbles all the time so hopefully he'll say his first word soon. 'We're both so proud of him - he's a very inspirational boy.' Hypoplastic left heart syndrome is a condition where the left lower pumping chamber of the heart does not develop properly so is much smaller than usual. The mitral valve between the left ventricle and the upper left filling chamber is often closed or very small. In addition, the main blood vessel that carries blood from the heart to the rest of the body is also smaller than usual. This means that the heart is unable to pump blood around the body effectively. Hypoplastic left heart syndrome is a form of congenital heart disease - a term used to describe a problem with the heart's structure and function due to abnormal development before birth.

Australian airlines will be required to have two crew in the cockpit of their planes at all times after the Germanwings tragedy that killed 150 passengers and crew. Deputy Prime Minister Warren Truss said the rules will apply to any regular aircraft carrying 50 passengers or more and will 'take effect immediately'. French prosecutors allege Andreas Lubitz, the co-pilot of downed flight 4U9525, plunged his plane into an Alpine ravine on March 24 after locking his captain out of the cockpit. Qantas has announced that it is discussions with regulators over it's cockpit policies . ''Today's decision is a sensible, measured response that combines safeguarding the travelling public with the practical capabilities of the aviation sector,' Mr Truss said in a statement. A spokesman for Qantas, the nation's biggest airline, said the new arrangement would apply to Qantas, QantasLink, Network Aviation and Jetstar flights. 'When one pilot needs to leave the cockpit for any reason, another authorised person will occupy the jump seat,' the spokesman said. The spokesman said the airline has 'numerous layers of screening and support for pilots'. That includes medical checks, stress management training, confidential counselling and psychometric testing during recruitment. In the UK, a few airlines have announced the new move will come into force tomorrow and aviation insiders say there are moves to make it 'mandatory' across all airlines . Qantas have said that they are still considering whether or not their policies need to be tightened . In a statement released to Daily Mail Australia last week, Virgin Australia said their pilots also undergo medical exams. The airline said they are constantly in contact with regulatory bodies and have comprehensive measures in place on all flights to ensure the safety of guests and crew. However they said that those details were to remain confidential for security purposes . 'The Virgin Australia Group continuously undertakes detailed risk reviews, including consultation with the relevant regulatory and industry bodies. Any updates regarding changes to our processes will be provided where appropriate,' a Virgin spokesperson said.

Airlines and aviation regulators around the world last week began taking steps to ensure there are always two people in the cockpit.

Lubitz was sitting in this cockpit, pictured, when he commanded the jet to crash into the Alps at 400mph . In the UK, EasyJet and Virgin Atlantic announced plans to change their aviation policy on staff numbers in the cockpit. Monarch and Thomas Cook also confirmed they had changed their policies, while Ryanair, Jet2 and Flybe said they already required two crew members to be in the cockpit at all times. Elsewhere around Europe, the continent's third-largest budget carrier, Norwegian Air Shuttle, said it would require two people in the cockpit at all times for safety reasons. A Civil Aviation Authority spokesman said: 'Following the details that have emerged regarding the tragic Germanwings incident, we are co-ordinating closely with colleagues at the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and have contacted all UK operators to require them to review all relevant procedures. Horror: After voice recordings emerged from the doomed A320 revealing how the pilot tried to kick down the cockpit door, EasyJet said a cabin crew member will enter the cockpit if the pilot or co-pilot needs the toilet .

As part of this, aeromedical examiners are required to assess a commercial pilot's mental health at each medical examination which, for an airline pilot flying with at least one other pilot, is undertaken annually.

A first edition of Mein Kampf signed by Adolf Hitler is set to fetch at least $35,000 in a controversial online auction. The two-volume set was published from 1925 and inscribed by the far-Right leader to Philipp Bouhler, the 12th member of the Nazi party who oversaw the murders of 70,000 people. It is the third copy of Hitler's racist autobiographical manifesto to be sold by the same Los Angeles auction house in just a month - with the previous two fetching $64,850. First edition: This signed, two-volume copy of Mein Kampf could fetch at least $35,000 in a controversial auction. It is the third copy of Hitler's manifesto to be sold be the same auction house in just one month . Auction house owner Nate Sanders, whose eponymous firm is running the sale, defended the decision to sell racist books saying they were 'part of history'. The sale of Nazi memorabilia is banned in some European countries, including Germany and France, and led to a major French case against Yahoo more than a decade ago. But Mr Sanders, who is Jewish, said most collectors were not neo-Nazis but simply military history aficionados. 'It is a piece of history,' he said last week. 'The same people who collect Adolf Hitler (items) collect George Washington, or World War II, or George Patton. 'You have the whole gamut. There's white supremacist collectors of Hitler, and there's Jewish collectors of Hitler items.' The volumes were signed by the Nazi party leader after his release from prison for high treason in 1924. Inscribed: The books were given to Philipp Bouhler, the 12th member of the Nazi party who oversaw the murders of 70,000 people, for Christmas in 1925 and 1926, each carrying a message from Hitler . Dedication: The second message said: 'To Herr Philipp Bouhler, on the occasion of Christmas inscribed most sincerely as a sign of recognition of your performance of duties, Adolf Hitler, Munich, December 24, 1926' They were published by Franz Eher Nachfolger of Munich and inscribed to Bouhler, one of the leaders of the Beer Hall Putsch in 1923 when Hitler attempted to overthrow the Bavarian government by gunpoint. He went on to be a key Nazi leader, and as Chief of the Chancellery for Hitler he led the barbaroc T4 'child euthanasia' programme. Between 1939 and 1941 more than 70,000 sick and disabled children and adults were killed at extermination centres in psychiatric hospitals in Germany and Austria. Anti-Semite: Hitler's manifesto outlined his conspiracy theory that Jews caused Germany's ills . Doctors continued their unethical practices right up until the end of the war, which historians believe may have claimed another 200,000 lives. Mein Kampf was initially published in two volumes, the first in 1925 and the second in 1926. The deeply anti-Semitic book outlined Hitler's political ideas and pushed the theory that Jews were responsible for all of Germany's economic problems. It was dictated to Hitler's deputy Rudolf Hess while he was behind bars for his part in the Beer Hall Putsch, and was designed to raise money for his defence. The signed volumes are being sold with a starting price of $35,000, but could fetch far more when the auction ends on March 26. Volumes of Mein Kampf from the 1930s are common because they were wedding gifts in Nazi Germany, but a copy signed by the author is rare. The previous two copies of Mein Kampf held by the California auction house, both signed, had a starting price of $20,000 but sold for $64,850 on Friday. The first volume of the edition now up for sale is signed: 'To Herr Philipp Bouhler, in grateful recognition of your loyal work for our movement on the occasion of Christmas 1925, inscribed most sincerely, Adolf Hitler, Munich, December 24, 1925.' The signature on the second volume reads: 'To Herr Philipp Bouhler, on the occasion of Christmas inscribed most sincerely as a sign of recognition of your performance of duties, Adolf Hitler, Munich, December 24, 1926.' Signed pages: The sale of Nazi memorabilia is banned in come European countries including France . Two copies of Mein Kampf, including this one inscribed to future SS leader Joseph Bauer, were sold by the same auction house on Friday for $65,000. Owner Nate Sanders defended the sales as 'part of history' Sam Heller, of Nate D Sanders auctions, said: 'Volumes of Mein Kampf signed by Hitler are scarce, but these volumes take on extra significance because Hitler inscribed them to Philipp Bouhler. 'He was responsible for the Nazi Aktion program, which murdered over 70,000 disabled adults and children in Germany. 'They are an ominously signed set of books that futilely warned the world of Hitler's intentions.' The books have been rebound in burgundy leather boards with gilt lettering since their publication. The auction house has not revealed their history or the identity of the seller.
Two-volume set was published from 1925 and signed by far-Right leader . It was inscribed to Philipp Bouhler, the 12th member of the Nazi party . It is third copy of Mein Kampf from same U.S. auctioneer in a month . Nate Sanders in Los Angeles sold two previous copies for $65,000 . Mr Sanders, who is Jewish, defends sales saying books 'part of history' Sales of Nazi memorabilia are banned in Germany and France .

It is the third copy of Hitler's racist autobiographical manifesto to be sold by the same Los Angeles auction house in just a month - with the previous two fetching $64,850. First edition: This signed, two-volume copy of Mein Kampf could fetch at least $35,000 in a controversial auction. It is the third copy of Hitler's manifesto to be sold be the same auction house in just one month . Auction house owner Nate Sanders, whose eponymous firm is running the sale, defended the decision to sell racist books saying they were 'part of history'. The sale of Nazi memorabilia is banned in some European countries, including Germany and France, and led to a major French case against Yahoo more than a decade ago. But Mr Sanders, who is Jewish, said most collectors were not neo-Nazis but simply military history aficionados. 'It is a piece of history,' he said last week. 'The same people who collect Adolf Hitler (items) collect George Washington, or World War II, or George Patton. 'You have the whole gamut. There's white supremacist collectors of Hitler, and there's Jewish collectors of Hitler items.' The volumes were signed by the Nazi party leader after his release from prison for high treason in 1924. Inscribed: The books were given to Philipp Bouhler, the 12th member of the Nazi party who oversaw the murders of 70,000 people, for Christmas in 1925 and 1926, each carrying a message from Hitler . Dedication: The second message said: 'To Herr Philipp Bouhler, on the occasion of Christmas inscribed most sincerely as a sign of recognition of your performance of duties, Adolf Hitler, Munich, December 24, 1926' They were published by Franz Eher Nachfolger of Munich and inscribed to Bouhler, one of the leaders of the Beer Hall Putsch in 1923 when Hitler attempted to overthrow the Bavarian government by gunpoint. He went on to be a key Nazi leader, and as Chief of the Chancellery for Hitler he led the barbaroc T4 'child euthanasia' programme. Between 1939 and 1941 more than 70,000 sick and disabled children and adults were killed at extermination centres in psychiatric hospitals in Germany and Austria. Anti-Semite: Hitler's manifesto outlined his conspiracy theory that Jews caused Germany's ills . Doctors continued their unethical practices right up until the end of the war, which historians believe may have claimed another 200,000 lives. Mein Kampf was initially published in two volumes, the first in 1925 and the second in 1926. The deeply anti-Semitic book outlined Hitler's political ideas and pushed the theory that Jews were responsible for all of Germany's economic problems. It was dictated to Hitler's deputy Rudolf Hess while he was behind bars for his part in the Beer Hall Putsch, and was designed to raise money for his defence. The signed volumes are being sold with a starting price of $35,000, but could fetch far more when the auction ends on March 26. Volumes of Mein Kampf from the 1930s are common because they were wedding gifts in Nazi Germany, but a copy signed by the author is rare. The previous two copies of Mein Kampf held by the California auction house, both signed, had a starting price of $20,000 but sold for $64,850 on Friday. The first volume of the edition now up for sale is signed: 'To Herr Philipp Bouhler, in grateful recognition of your loyal work for our movement on the occasion of Christmas 1925, inscribed most sincerely, Adolf Hitler, Munich, December 24, 1925.' The signature on the second volume reads: 'To Herr Philipp Bouhler, on the occasion of Christmas inscribed most sincerely as a sign of recognition of your performance of duties, Adolf Hitler, Munich, December 24, 1926.' Signed pages: The sale of Nazi memorabilia is banned in come European countries including France . Two copies of Mein Kampf, including this one inscribed to future SS leader Joseph Bauer, were sold by the same auction house on Friday for $65,000. Owner Nate Sanders defended the sales as 'part of history' Sam Heller, of Nate D Sanders auctions, said: 'Volumes of Mein Kampf signed by Hitler are scarce, but these volumes take on extra significance because Hitler inscribed them to Philipp Bouhler. 'He was responsible for the Nazi Aktion program, which murdered over 70,000 disabled adults and children in Germany. 'They are an ominously signed set of books that futilely warned the world of Hitler's intentions.' The books have been rebound in burgundy leather boards with gilt lettering since their publication. The auction house has not revealed their history or the identity of the seller. [/INST] Two-volume set was published from 1925 and signed by far-Right leader .

The Chancellor used this week's Budget to announce the first above-inflation increase in the threshold for the higher rate of tax . George Osborne is expected to pledge to accelerate increases in the 40p income tax threshold if the Conservatives win the general election. The Chancellor used this week's Budget to announce the first above-inflation increase in the threshold for the higher rate of tax, which has sucked in ever-more middle-class families, in seven years. But yesterday economists said that even after the latest rise, the decision to limit increases had left millions out of pocket. The Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) said higher-rate taxpayers will be £535 worse off in 2017-18 than they would have been had the threshold risen in line with inflation since 2010. Those earning up to £100,000 have benefited from repeated increases in the 20p threshold, but not as much as the 26million basic-rate taxpayers. Mr Osborne persuaded reluctant Liberal Democrat colleagues to agree that the higher-rate tax threshold should rise gradually from £41,865 this year to £43,300 in April 2017 as he sought to woo voters ahead of May's election. He is now expected to use the Conservative election campaign to say he would go faster if the party wins outright. The Chancellor says he wants to deliver a threshold of £50,000 for higher-rate tax and £12,500 for the basic rate. The IFS said yesterday that higher-rate taxpayers were feeling the pain from the Coalition's earlier decisions to cut the threshold for paying 40p and then increasing it by less than inflation. The think-tank said the threshold would need to rise to £48,650 by 2017 to ensure that higher-rate taxpayers had not lost out since 2010. Robert Joyce, a senior research economist at the IFS, said: 'Higher-rate taxpayers will be £535 worse off because the point at which you start paying 40p income tax has been reduced in real terms significantly over this Parliament.' But he said basic-rate taxpayers will be £597 a year better off by 2017-18 because of increases in the personal allowance – the point at which income tax of 20 per cent kicks in. Mr Osborne says he wants to deliver a threshold of £50,000 for higher-rate tax and £12,500 for the basic rate . The Coalition has already raised the personal allowance from about £6,500 to £10,000 and it is due to hit £11,000 in 2017. Mr Osborne said the planned increases in the 40p threshold in the coming years – which could be reversed by an incoming Labour government – were a modest 'downpayment' on Tory plans to raise the threshold to £50,000 by 2020. David Cameron vowed last year to end the scandal of so-called 'fiscal drag', which has seen millions of people dragged into higher rates of income tax by below-inflation increases to thresholds. The number of people paying 40p tax has risen from around three million to five million since 2010 and is due to keep rising. The IFS, the leading independent expert on tax and spending issues in Britain, has estimated that one in four taxpayers could be hit over the coming decade. But it has warned that such a large increase in the threshold 'might be politically difficult for a government to go ahead with' given the likely backlash among voters. The Tories have so far refused to say exactly where the money will come from to fund an increase in the 40p threshold to £50,000 by 2020. The policy has been opposed by Labour and the Lib Dems. Critics called on all political parties to raise the threshold at which the 40p tax rate kicks in. One leading tax adviser said the 40p rate of income tax 'was not intended to be a tax on people who you would hardly say are earning a fortune'.

The NHS has spent nearly £350,000 on removing tattoos after people changed their minds about their body art. More than 2,000 people have been given free laser treatment – courtesy of the taxpayer – in the past four years, described by MPs as a ‘sheer waste’ of scarce NHS funds. Tattoo removal is not routinely provided by the NHS, but guidance states it can be carried out ‘to protect a person’s health’ if their doctor believes it is causing them ‘significant distress or serious mental health problems’. The NHS has spent £350,000 on removing people's tattoos for them once they have second thoughts (file image) It would also be considered if the dye had caused a ‘significant allergic reaction or infection’ or if someone had been tattooed against their will. A patient must be referred by their GP. Figures obtained by The Sun under Freedom of Information laws show 2,016 people had tattoos removed since 2010 at a cost of £330,182. However, the true cost is likely to be much higher, as many trusts did not provide breakdowns of the reasons for laser treatments. The number of tattoo parlours in the UK has soared from about 50 in the 1970s to 1,000 today. Their popularity has been boosted by celebrity fans, including David Beckham and Cheryl Fernandez-Versini. Even the Prime Minister’s wife, Samantha Cameron, has a small dolphin tattoo on her ankle. However, four in ten people are said to regret having a tattoo and one in six want them removed. Laser removal uses beams of different coloured light to break down the ink into minuscule fragments, which can then be absorbed into the bloodstream and excreted via the liver and digestive system. The popularity of tattoos has been boosted by celebrity fans, including David Beckham (pictured), Cheryl Fernandez-Versini and even Samantha Cameron . Private clinics charge around £150 a session for a small tattoo and up to £800 for a larger one. Typically eight to ten sessions are needed for large tattoos. One patient to benefit was John, 22, who had a large swastika removed from his chest and hoped to have other Nazi symbols removed from his back and arms. He told the BBC he wanted them removed so he could move abroad and take his top off while working out. He added: ‘You can’t really do that with something that is going to offend everybody... I want to move on in life. If I got them removed I’d be able to change my image.’ Jonathan Isaby, chief executive of the TaxPayers’ Alliance, said: ‘Taxpayers will be furious that they’re funding what amounts to cosmetic surgery. You can’t go a day in politics without someone calling for more money for the NHS, but it’s clear that too much is already wasted. ‘With Britain’s finances so stretched we have to prioritise spending on essential services, not on covering up ill-advised body art.’ Shadow health minister Andrew Gwynne said: ‘People will struggle to see how this sheer waste of precious NHS money can be justified when hospitals do not have enough staff. ‘Patient care is already heading downhill and more nurses could be lost under Tory spending cuts.’

Fast food giant Domino’s is selling ‘Frankenfood’ pizzas to customers while claiming to be ‘GM-free’ on its website . The double-dealing has been identified by GM Freeze, which is campaigning to raise awareness about how GM foods are creeping into the national diet without the knowledge and approval of consumers. The group’s director, Liz O’Neill, is now demanding an investigation to see if Domino’s has broken labelling laws – as firms using GM ingredients are required to label their use. She said: ‘Domino’s website currently contradicts itself. If they have introduced GM ingredients to their pizza crusts then customers should be told much more clearly. ‘People in the UK have demonstrated time and again that they don’t want to eat GM food and the FSA’s public attitudes survey recently showed concern about GM at an all-time high. ‘Whether people are motivated by concern for declining wildlife and flourishing superweeds, for the wider ethical issues around GM farming or just their own personal choice, we all have the right to know what we are buying before we get to the till.’ Waitrose has also been selling imported American confectionery which contains GM sugar beet and a soya derivative . Domino’s has confirmed that it has been using thin and crispy pizza bases with GM ingredients since the beginning of February after its usual supplier in Ireland had a factory fire which stopped production. The firm apologised for not updating its website, and confirmed that it hopes to return to using non-GM bases in September. M&S said its decision to stock GM products ‘in no way affects our commitment to only using non-GM ingredients in M&S food’. And a Waitrose spokesman insisted that any GM ingredients in American chocolate stocked by the store were ‘clearly labelled’. GM crops like sugar beet, corn or maize and soya have been at the centre of concerns that the associated industrial farming practices have caused serious harm to the environment. Marks & Spencer has been stocking American sauces and cookies containing GM soya and corn – even though the firm has previously boasted about not using GM ingredients . The plants have been altered through the insertion of foreign genes that create toxins to kill insects or give them immunity to spraying with powerful chemical weed killers. There is evidence from the USA that certain weeds have developed immunity to the same weed killers with the result that they are taking over many fields. At the same time, the use of sprays alongside the GM crops is thought to have caused a collapse in the population of the Monarch butterfly, which is now under threat. Critics of the technology are also concerned about the lack of independent research to show the resulting food is safe to eat. A recent Food Standards Agency (FSA) study found a rise in concerns about GM food. Some 24per cent listed GM as a concern, which was higher than food hygiene in the home.

A celebrated sea otter who survived a natural oil slick and was tracked by researchers for six years has been killed by a shark. The seven-year-old marine mammal named Olive was found dead by a beachgoer on March 22 near Sunset State Beach in California. Wildlife biologists retrieved a large, serrated tooth fragment from white shark in a wound on the mother-of-three's body, indicating the cause of death.

Cause of death: Wildlife biologists retrieved a large, serrated tooth fragment (above) from white shark in a wound on the mother-of-three's body, indicating the cause of death . Outside of the fatal bite wounds, Olive was reported to be in good health. Olive made headlines in February 2009 when she was found covered in oil and near death on Sunset State Beach in Santa Cruz County. A rescue team from The Marine Mammal Center was dispatched to retrieve the oiled otter. Her 'thick and tarry' fur was cleaned with a combination of diluted dish soap and olive oil, hence her name. In early April 2009, when her weight was back to normal and vets had given her the all-clear, Olive was deemed ready for release. Flashback: Olive made headlines in February 2009 when she was found covered in oil and near death on Sunset State Beach in Santa Cruz County . In safe hands: Her 'thick and tarry' fur was cleaned with a combination of diluted dish soap and olive oil, hence her name . She was outfitted with a high frequency transmitter and colored flipper tags so she could be identified and monitored after her release. In July 2012 Olive was re-captured for a health examination. Her blood values and physical examination were consistent with other healthy, wild otters, and it was determined that she was pregnant - the first known pregnancy. Before her death, Olive was most recently seen in mid-February resting in kelp near Capitola. Olive had more than 5,000 Facebook followers, in an account set up by wildlife officials. 'Swimming' was listed as her sole personal interest. Back to the wild: In early April 2009, when her weight was back to normal and vets had given her the all-clear, Olive was deemed ready for release .

<s>[INST] A celebrated sea otter who survived a natural oil slick and was tracked by researchers for six years has been killed by a shark. The seven-year-old marine mammal named Olive was found dead by a beachgoer on March 22 near Sunset State Beach in California. Wildlife biologists retrieved a large, serrated tooth fragment from white shark in a wound on the mother-of-three's body, indicating the cause of death. Sad loss: Olive the otter was found dead by a beachgoer on March 22 near Sunset State Beach in California . Cause of death: Wildlife biologists retrieved a large, serrated tooth fragment (above) from white shark in a wound on the mother-of-three's body, indicating the cause of death . Outside of the fatal bite wounds, Olive was reported to be in good health. Olive made headlines in February 2009 when she was found covered in oil and near death on Sunset State Beach in Santa Cruz County. A rescue team from The Marine Mammal Center was dispatched to retrieve the oiled otter. Her 'thick and tarry' fur was cleaned with a combination of diluted dish soap and olive oil, hence her name. In early April 2009, when her weight was back to normal and vets had given her the all-clear, Olive was deemed ready for release. Flashback: Olive made headlines in February 2009 when she was found covered in oil and near death on Sunset State Beach in Santa Cruz County . In safe hands: Her 'thick and tarry' fur was cleaned with a combination of diluted dish soap and olive oil, hence her name . She was outfitted with a high frequency transmitter and colored flipper tags so she could be identified and monitored after her release. In July 2012 Olive was re-captured for a health examination. Her blood values and physical examination were consistent with other healthy, wild otters, and it was determined that she was pregnant - the first known pregnancy. Before her death, Olive was most recently seen in mid-February resting in kelp near Capitola. Olive had more than 5,000 Facebook followers, in an account set up by wildlife officials. 'Swimming' was listed as her sole personal interest.

A driver has been arrested after a £200,000 supercar was allegedly spotted driving at 150mph on the M25. The black and white Ferrari California was pulled over by two police cars last night on the busy motorway near Woking, Surrey. The car has been seized by police while a man, aged 25, was arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving and has since been bailed. Surrey Police tweeted this message last night after this Ferrari California was alleged seen doing 150mph . The car was allegedly seen doing the high speeds between junctions 8 and 10 of the M25 in Surrey . Officers say the high-performance vehicle, the first model of which was released in 2008, was seen doing 150mph between junctions eight, near Reigate, and junction 10, near Woking. The police force tweeted a photo of the car alongside the message: '#M25 J8-10 Ferrari California 150mph with two police cars behind. Vehicle seized and driver arrested.' The force later revealed it had 'numerous calls' about the car and responded within three minutes. It is believed the police cars which pulled over the Ferrari were BMW 530s, which a police source described as 'pretty nifty, if not as fast as a Ferrari'. The Italian-made vehicle appears to have a personalised number plate and red interior. Other motorists on Twitter expressed shock that the vehicle managed to reach such speeds on a road famous for its heavy traffic. Dawn Denyer tweeted: 'I'm normally lucky to get to 60mph on that stretch. Is that what the new variable speed signs are for?'

Guilty-stricken: Rick Abath, pictured above as police found him, has spoken about his involvement in the 1990 heist from a Boston art gallery . The security guard who was duped into letting the thieves at the center of America's most notorious unsolved art crime into the Boston gallery from which they looted paintings worth $500million has spoken of his guilt. Rick Abath, who was a college drop-out working night shifts at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in 1990, said he still feels 'horrible' about his inadvertent role in the crime, which has baffled investigators for decades. Abath was duped by two thieves in police uniform, who persuaded him to let them into the gallery, then overwhelmed him and left him in the basement covered in duct tape. He spent the next seven hours handcuffed to an electrical box alongside another guard, while the two men cut loose enormously valuable Old Masters from their frames, including works by Rembrandt, Vermeer, Degas and Manet. The FBI has never come close to finding the paintings - despite supposedly promising leads last May - and there remains a $5million reward for information leading to their return. Abath reflected on the night of March 18, 1990, in an interview published by NPR. He said: 'They had hats, badges, they looked like cops, and I let them in...' 'Ultimately I'm the one who made the decision to buzz them in. 'It's the kind of thing most people don't have to learn to cope with. It's like doing penance. It's always there. He added: 'I don't want to be remembered for this alone. I'd like to be remembered for the good things I've done. I'm a husband, a father of two really cool kids. Scroll down for video . Scene: A security guard at Boston's Isabella Stewart Gardner museum stands outside the room from which most of the paintings were pilfered .

Irreplaceable: Chez Tortoni, painted by Manet, shows a man wearing a top hat at a jaunty angle; it was one of the last paintings to be stolen from the museum . 'Dressed as cops': This FBI sketch shows a likeness of the two men, who have never been caught . 'But they're saying it's half a billion worth of artwork.' In total the haul including three Rembrandt works, five sketches by Degas, a Manet painting and a painting by Vermeer - one of only 36 in the world. A bronze eagle statue, a Chinese beaker from 1100 BC and a painting by Govaert Flinck were also taken. Aside from two sketches of mustachioed men in police hats - one with glasses and one without - little detail has ever been given as to who the men may have been. Missing: The Gardner museum continues to display empty frames in the spots where the paintings should be . A petty Boston criminal, who had broken into the gallery before denies having anything to do with the heist, has since said he believes his boasts to criminal associates may have sparked the crime. Louis Royce, who was a teenager in the 1980s and made it inside the gallery, told veteran crime reporter Stephen Kurkjian that he believes information he gave 'criminal associates' about the lax security may have focused the thieves' attention on the Gardner Museum. According to Kurkjian, whose recently-published book about the heist was previewed in the Washington Post, the information passed up the chain in the criminal underworld until a Boston gangster decided to make the attempt. The FBI has periodically renewed its appeal for information about the artworks, and carries information about the reward prominently on its website. Reward: The FBI has claimed to be hot on the trail of the paintings in the past - but little has emerged. Pictured above is a 2013 press conference at which a $5million reward was announced . In 2013, the bureau claimed to have made 'significant investigative progress' after figuring out that the stolen paintings had been taken to Connecticut and Philadelphia. Agents also said 'a criminal organization with a base in the Mid-Atlantic states' was responsible, and had attempted to sell the paintings in 2003. Federal prosecutors have said they would even consider immunity for those who help recover the artworks, and said they could pay the huge reward anonymously. In May 2014, the bureau made another announcement, saying there had been 'confirmed sightings' of the work - and even naming three men in connection with the crime. However, two of them, Carmello Merlino, Robert Guarente, are dead, and the third, Robert Gentile, denies any involvement. Gentile has denied any knowledge of the missing work. In a long piece in the Boston Globe, Gentile, a long-time criminal in his 70s who recently got out of prison, revealed that FBI agents had raided his shed hoping to find the paintings. There was nothing there, and Gentile continues to deny he ever had anything to do with the theft. The museum, meanwhile, has been displaying empty frames in place of the missing masterworks ever since the theft. It is now offering virtual tours and lectures about the work, in an effort to make up for their continued absence - though the museum's directors continue to hold out hope they will one day return.

Jerry Springer producer Jill Blackstone was in tears as she returned to the San Fernando Valley home where her sister died for the first time on Thursday. The TV producer hid behind sunglasses and a baseball cap as a friend drove her to the house she had shared with her sister, whose death by asphyxiation is being treated as a murder by police.

Wendy was found on Saturday in the home’s garage, apparently asphyxiated by carbon monoxide gas. Also found at the scene was a handwritten suicide note, which police determined had been written by Jill, and the bodies of their three dogs. According to TMZ, Jill had woken up in her bed and called neighbors who, in turn, called 911. She was treated in hospital for effects of gas inhalation for two days before being discharged, at which time she was arrested. Earlier, a police spokesperson emphasized Wendy’s death is still being treated as a murder. LAPD officer Drake Madison told Daily Mail Online this is 'an ongoing murder investigation'. 'Jill Blackstone was arrested on Saturday but the District Attorney dropped the charges and she is no longer in custody. The investigation is still active and the police are looking for a murderer,' he added. Asked if the police could re-arrest Jill, officer Madison said he had no further information to give at this time.

Stephanie Cohen, 60, who lives across the street from the sisters said: ‘The police were here for 12 to 14 hours on Saturday. We were told they were investigating a double suicide, an attempt, and one of the people died.’ Numerous signs are posted on the property saying it is marked for demolition. Stephanie added: ‘They were having a hard time finding a new home because the sister that died was very ill - she couldn’t see, she couldn’t hear, she was housebound, she was very ill. So she needed to find a house that could accommodate her sister with the illness and the dogs. Evidently the pressure was intense on them, but nobody expected this to happen.’ As a producer, Jill has worked on shows including Jerry Springer, Sally Jessy Raphael, The Rosie O'Donnell Show, Dr. Drew On Call, The Real, and The Osbournes. On her Linkedin page she describes herself as: 'Some of you know me as a TV producer, others as an animal welfare advocate and dog rescuer. I'm all those things.’

The brother of MP Simon Danczuk’s wife Karen was re-arrested yesterday after two more women accused him of sexually abusing them. Police confirmed that Michael Burke, 36, was being questioned last night on suspicion of historic sexual offences a month after complaints from Mrs Danczuk led to his first arrest. The divorced father of three, a security guard, was held and taken to a Manchester police station yesterday morning after ‘new information came to light’. Police confirmed that Michael Burke (left), 36, was being questioned last night on suspicion of historic sexual offences a month after complaints from Karen Danczuk (right) led to his first arrest . Mrs Danczuk – who has become well-known for posting revealing pictures of herself on Twitter – claimed she was raped by a family member ‘hundreds of times’ between the ages of six and 12. She did not name her attacker initially, but Mr Burke was later arrested. Last week he denied the claims, saying: ‘The allegations are false. I’m just so shocked and disgusted by it all.’ Her husband Simon, Labour MP for Rochdale since 2010, has been a vociferous campaigner against child abuse and those who cover up such crimes . In February Mrs Danczuk said: ‘I was raped and abused by a paedophile for years and years. And for years afterwards I felt worthless, guilty, as though I had somehow brought this on myself. But I was just a little girl. ‘I was on anti-depressants for years and wanted to kill myself. But my husband Simon encouraged me to have therapy and now – after intensive counselling – I have been able to get some confidence back.’ The 31-year-old says she was on anti-depressants for two decades, self-harming and attempting suicide in 2007. Mrs Danczuk said she starting posting ‘selfies’ because she can now ‘have fun without being ashamed of myself’. Her husband Simon, Labour MP for Rochdale since 2010, has been a vociferous campaigner against child abuse and those who cover up such crimes. A spokesman for Greater Manchester Police said: ‘A man has been rearrested on suspicion of historic sexual offences. ‘This relates to officers speaking to a woman on February 16, 2015, regarding historic sexual abuse and new information coming to light. He remains in police custody for questioning.’ It is not known when the fresh offences are alleged to have taken place.

Stuart McCall admits taking on the challenge of steering Rangers to Premiership promotion was a gamble he couldn’t refuse as he bids to earn a longer stay as Ibrox boss. The 50-year-old was unveiled on Thursday as manager until the end of the current season – following the exit of caretaker Kenny McDowall - and hasn’t received any promises about what could lie beyond that point. However, the former Rangers midfielder insists he didn’t think twice about returning to the club where he won six league titles in seven years during the 1990s. New Rangers manager Stuart McCall raises the club scarf after being unveiled on Thursday afternoon . McCall, 50, will take charge of the club he used to play for until the end of the season . The new Rangers boss takes his first training session at Murray Park on Thursday afternoon . McCall views it as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and is focused on revitalising a play-off push that could convince the new Rangers board he is the man for the future. ‘I know what the expectation levels are at this club,’ he said. ‘It’s a gamble, it’s a massive challenge but it’s an opportunity I never thought I’d get and I had to take it. ‘It’s an honour and a privilege to be asked to come and help out at this club until the end of the season. ‘People have been texting me good luck and asking me if I know what I’m doing. But it’s a wonderful opportunity for me.’ McCall addressed the players and conducted an afternoon training session at Murray Park after cancelling their scheduled day off. He spoke with director John Gilligan and interim chairman Paul Murray to reach an agreement on Wednesday but confirmed no guarantees were given beyond the 11 remaining games of the regular season. The former Motherwell manager has taken charge of the Ibrox club for the rest of the season . The former Bradford player faces the press as he is unveiled on Thursday . McCall said the chance to manage Rangers for just 11 guaranteed games was a 'wonderful opportunity' ‘There’s nothing concrete,’ said the former Motherwell boss, who will again be assisted by Kenny Black. ‘My question to the board was: “What do you see as success?” ‘I don’t want to do as well as I can, turn it around, and then see others coming in. ‘Progress will obviously be an upturn in results and everyone will say success is gaining promotion to the Premiership. But you could get to the second leg of the play-off final, see your goalkeeper sent off and lose on penalty kicks. ‘It can be a thin line between whether you go up or not. We’ve got to improve our performance and it’s about self-belief and regaining confidence. There are no guarantees either way if we go up or have to stay down. ‘I want to make it a success. I’m not an over-confident person. I know it will be a struggle but I will do my best.’ Rangers announced that caretaker manager Kenny McDowall has left the club ahead of a new appointmnet . McCall (centre right) celebrates the 1992 SPL during his Rangers playing days with the Ibrox club . McCall also confirmed he would not have taken the job had Dave King and his allies not attained boardroom power. ‘I get paid to try and get the best out of a group of players,’ he added. ‘There is no magic formula or a pill you can give them for confidence. It’s about trying to restore self-belief. A couple of results can change things. ‘The supporters are there, willing them to do well. They don’t want to come and boo. The club has had a kicking, but the team have had two promotions in the past two seasons and there is still an opportunity to get another one this year.’ McCall spoke at length with McDowall on Thursday morning, before the latter’s amicable departure was then confirmed later in the day. McDowall was a reluctant leader at Rangers and was boss for 10 games, winning just three of those . Stuart McCall (left), who was Scotland assistant under Gordon Strachan, has taken charge at Ibrox . McDowall became caretaker manager after Ally McCoist was placed on garden leave by the old regime just before Christmas. He was, however, always a reluctant conscript to the role and had handed in his own notice in January. ‘It was an honour and privilege to work for Rangers Football Club and I will leave with so many positive memories,’ said McDowall, who originally arrived at Ibrox as first-team coach in 2007. ‘I have worked with so many talented people since I joined and I will forever be in Walter Smith’s debt for bringing me to Rangers. ‘Working with Walter, Ally McCoist, Ian Durrant, Jim Stewart and all the backroom staff plus the staff at Ibrox and Murray Park was a pleasure and I wish the club well for the future. ‘I was delighted to play a part in the club’s history and I wish the supporters and new management team all the very best.’

The family of the six-year-old Oregon boy forced into eating his lunch behind a screen because his parents dropped him off one minute late to school have been gifted a brand new minivan. Hunter Cmelo's parents, Nicole Garloff and Mark Cmelo were presented with the $30,000 Chrysler minivan after local Medford businesses heard he was late because their car was old and unreliable. The photograph which was taken by his mother and posted to Facebook by his grandmother attracted global attention and shamed the school to change its policy on publicly punishing students in the same way. Scroll down for video . The family of the six-year-old Oregon boy forced into eating his lunch behind a screen because his parents dropped him off one minute late to school have been gifted a brand new minivan (pictured). Hunter Cmelo's parents, Nicole Garloff and Mark Cmelo were presented with the $30,000 Chrysler minivan . Even though Nicole and Mark's broken-down Dodge Durango was repaired by a friendly local mechanic, a local reposession firm, Rapid Repo and Collections, donated the minivan to them to make sure Hunter would always get to school on time. "When I handed dad Mark the key to the minivan, he was speechless and extremely grateful,' said McClease Kelly, who organized the generous donation. Last month, Hunter's picture was shared around the Internet as Nicole and Mark shared their outrage at their son's treatment. Lincoln Elementary School in Grants Pass was forced to change its tardiness policy after the image of the punishment was shared thousands of times on Facebook - sparking hundreds of complaints. Alone: Six-year-old Hunter Cmelo was forced to eat alone behind this cardboard divider after his parents dropped him off late to his elementary school. He was left feeling humiliated, his family said . Embarrassed: The school district said that the system is supposed to give children the chance to catch up on work they have missed by being late - but staff have now agreed to stop using the screen . In the photograph, Hunter Cmelo, a first grader at the school, can be seen sitting alone behind a cardboard divider at a cafeteria table. Close by is a cup with a large letter 'D' for 'detention'. His grandmother, Laura Hoover, shared the image to her Facebook page last Wednesday. 'This is my grandson, Hunter. He's a little first grader,' she wrote. 'His momma's car sometimes doesn't like to start right up. Sometimes he's a couple of minutes late to school. 'Yesterday, he was 1 minute late and this is what his momma discovered they do to punish him! They have done this to him 6 times for something that is out of his control! They make a mockery of him in front of the other students.' She said that his mother found Hunter crying and took him home. His parents said they were devastated when they found out what their son was going through. 'They are shaming him for something that's not in his control,' his father, Mark Cmelo, told KOIN6. 'It is our fault that he is late.' Hunter is pictured with his mother, Nicole Garloff, who admitted he is often late to school due to car troubles and because she suffers from osteoporosis, which makes it hard for her to get going in the morning . School: The principal of Lincoln Elementary School in Grants Pass, Oregon has now met with the boy's parents and reached 'an appropriate resolution', the district said . His mother, Nicole Garloff, said the punishment has left her son anxious about going to school, and that a few days ago, he began 'flipping out' because they were running late. She said that she has experienced car troubles and suffers from osteoporosis, which can set her back in the mornings. 'It causes a lot of pain and in the mornings it's especially hard for me to get going,' she said. The boy is unable to ride the school bus because they live within a mile of the school, but they are unable to walk because the road is too busy. School superintendent John Higgins and principal Missy Fitzsimmons started receiving threatening calls after the photo was shared on Facebook, according to Newswatch 12. Higgins told the channel he believes the system gave students a chance to catch up on missed work. The 'protocol was communicated to parents via newsletter and is intended to provide the students with an above average level of tardiness, supervised additional learning time in a non-distracting setting,' the district said in a statement. 'It was never intended to isolate or stigmatize students.' The principal immediately reached out to the parents after receiving complaints. They met on Thursday and agreed to stop using the partition as a punishment. 'We are pleased to report the meeting was productive,' the district said. 'The parents' concerns were politely discussed and, ultimately, the issues were resolved to the satisfaction of both parents and the school. All parties involved believe that an appropriate resolution has been reached.

<s>[INST] The family of the six-year-old Oregon boy forced into eating his lunch behind a screen because his parents dropped him off one minute late to school have been gifted a brand new minivan. Hunter Cmelo's parents, Nicole Garloff and Mark Cmelo were presented with the $30,000 Chrysler minivan after local Medford businesses heard he was late because their car was old and unreliable. The photograph which was taken by his mother and posted to Facebook by his grandmother attracted global attention and shamed the school to change its policy on publicly punishing students in the same way. Scroll down for video . The family of the six-year-old Oregon boy forced into eating his lunch behind a screen because his parents dropped him off one minute late to school have been gifted a brand new minivan (pictured). Hunter Cmelo's parents, Nicole Garloff and Mark Cmelo were presented with the $30,000 Chrysler minivan . Even though Nicole and Mark's broken-down Dodge Durango was repaired by a friendly local mechanic, a local reposession firm, Rapid Repo and Collections, donated the minivan to them to make sure Hunter would always get to school on time. "When I handed dad Mark the key to the minivan, he was speechless and extremely grateful,' said McClease Kelly, who organized the generous donation. Last month, Hunter's picture was shared around the Internet as Nicole and Mark shared their outrage at their son's treatment. Lincoln Elementary School in Grants Pass was forced to change its tardiness policy after the image of the punishment was shared thousands of times on Facebook - sparking hundreds of complaints. Alone: Six-year-old Hunter Cmelo was forced to eat alone behind this cardboard divider after his parents dropped him off late to his elementary school. He was left feeling humiliated, his family said . Embarrassed: The school district said that the system is supposed to give children the chance to catch up on work they have missed by being late - but staff have now agreed to stop using the screen . In the photograph, Hunter Cmelo, a first grader at the school, can be seen sitting alone behind a cardboard divider at a cafeteria table. Close by is a cup with a large letter 'D' for 'detention'. His grandmother, Laura Hoover, shared the image to her Facebook page last Wednesday. 'This is my grandson, Hunter. He's a little first grader,' she wrote. 'His momma's car sometimes doesn't like to start right up. Sometimes he's a couple of minutes late to school. 'Yesterday, he was 1 minute late and this is what his momma discovered they do to punish him! They have done this to him 6 times for something that is out of his control! They make a mockery of him in front of the other students.' She said that his mother found Hunter crying and took him home. His parents said they were devastated when they found out what their son was going through. 'They are shaming him for something that's not in his control,' his father, Mark Cmelo, told KOIN6. 'It is our fault that he is late.' Hunter is pictured with his mother, Nicole Garloff, who admitted he is often late to school due to car troubles and because she suffers from osteoporosis, which makes it hard for her to get going in the morning . School: The principal of Lincoln Elementary School in Grants Pass, Oregon has now met with the boy's parents and reached 'an appropriate resolution', the district said . His mother, Nicole Garloff, said the punishment has left her son anxious about going to school, and that a few days ago, he began 'flipping out' because they were running late. She said that she has experienced car troubles and suffers from osteoporosis, which can set her back in the mornings. 'It causes a lot of pain and in the mornings it's especially hard for me to get going,' she said. The boy is unable to ride the school bus because they live within a mile of the school, but they are unable to walk because the road is too busy.

The U.S. state you call home may affect more than your accent or whether you call it 'soda' or 'pop.' Personality and career website Truity surveyed some 12,000 people from each of the 50 states and found that residents of each tend toward certain personality attributes like extroversion or competitiveness more than others. So where does your state fall in the personality spectrum? What about your state? Career and personality psychometrics site Truity surveyed over 12,000 Americans to discover how personalities in each of the 50 states and Washington, DC are distinct . In terms of introversion versus extroversion, you're the life of the party if you come from the most outgoing state of Nevada. Truity found that the Silver State was followed by Montana, Arkansas, Wyoming and Wisconsin in terms of extroversion. As for the less socially forthcoming among Americans were Vermont, Kentucky, South Dakota, Idaho and West Virginia. Resilient or neurotic? The survey examined how residents of each state tend to interact with each other and with the world . Truity's researchers also looked at  how people of different states react to stress and found that the most level-headed Americans can be found in Montana, Alabama, Arkansas, New Hampshire and Idaho. However, the reverse is true in South Dakota, Delaware, Kentucky, Vermont, Illinois--however, these most neurotic of states surprisingly did not include the notorious nail-biters of New York. But the Empire State--along with Alaska, California, Connecticut, Idaho, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Virginia and West Virginia--was found to be among the most open-minded of states.

Just before a new $6million sports center bearing her name was opened last fall, beach volleyball star Misty May-Treanor said she was excited to be involved in the club and give back to her local southern California community. But six months later, the three-time Olympic gold medalist's office at the Misty May-Treanor Sports Center is empty after a mysterious fallout with her longtime trainer Mike Rangel, who founded the Irvine facility. Now parents are threatening to stop paying their seasonal dues of $4,300 because their children aren't getting the benefit of May-Treanor's tutelage, as they feel they were promised. Scroll down for video . Olympic gold-medalist Misty May-Treanor has reportedly fallen out with longtime trainer Mike Rangel, just six months after he founded a new sports center in her name . Brand new: The 155,000-square-foot Misty May-Treanor Sports Center was opened in November 2014. Parents pay $4,300 to let their children play at the facility for a seven-month season . Boycotts: Some parents at the facility have threatened to stop paying their dues because May-Treanor has not been involved at the facility recently . In a new report by the OC Register, Rangel said he and May-Treanor split over the simple issue of sponsorship. Rangel agreed to let Asics sponsor the club, while 37-year-old May-Treanor remains a spokesman for competitor Nike. 'I can respect the fact that she doesn’t want to be photographed with 500 girls that are wearing Asics gear,' Rangel said. However, rumors abound in the club about a deeper-seeded issue that caused May-Treanor's distance, and the scrubbing of all her photos from the club's website. Cary Lambeth, a longtime youth basketball organizer who helped in the early planning stages of the MMTSC believes the break is 'because their visions were not the same'. 'I do not think Misty was doing it for Misty. I think Misty was doing it because she wanted to give back,' Lambeth said. Daily Mail Online reached out to May-Treanor's agent for comment on Tuesday, but did not immediately get a reply. Calls to Mike Rangel were also not returned. May-Treanor's apparent rift with Rangel is surprising considering their previously close relationship. In her 2010 autobiography, she described her relationship with Rangel as 'one of the most important partnerships' in her volleyball career. Rangel helped train May-Treanor between 2002 and 2012, during which she won three gold medals in the Olympics for beach volleyball with partner Kerri Walsh Jennings. The split was also swift. May-Treanor attended coaches meetings for the new facility in August, and even gave excited interviews about the club in October. But since then it's been radio silence. Checked out: May-Treanor hasn't been seen at the MMTSC since October. The sports legend pictured on the left with a Laguna Hills High School senior at the facility on October 2 . Legend: It's still unclear what caused the rift between May-Treanor and her longtime trainer Rangel. Rangel trained May-Treanor for 12 years, during which she won three Olympic gold medals in beach volleyball with partner Kerri Walsh Jennings. May-Treanor pictured above compting in the London Olympic games . Erased: The club's website now shows now sign of Misty May-Treanor's name or image on the homepage . In October, May-Treanor told the OC Register that the building of the sports center was close to her heart, since she grew up in the area and knew there weren't many places for local kids to play. 'Growing up as a volleyball player around here, I know how gym space had become more and more limited,' May-Treanor said. 'This is not going to be just a volleyball place but a place for basketball and other sports, too. With the amount of sports and teams we have here, it’s important to have a facility like this.' Brand minded? Rangel says the split with May-Treanor stems from a sponsorship issue. Asics is sponsoring the club, while May-Treanor remains a spokesman for Nike. May-Treanor and Jennings pictured above celebrating their gold medal win at the London games . She also appeared to be interested in interacting with the youth teams that trained at the center. 'I love the coaching and teaching aspect of what we’ll be doing,' May-Treanor said. 'That’s the big part for me, the sharing of information with younger players. And the beauty of this is that I don’t have to be dedicated to one team.' May-Treanor hasn't been seen at the gym since October, a month before it's official opening and since then parents have been getting angrier and angrier walking past her perennially empty office. Last month, about 60 parents with kids at the gym met in a nearby park to discuss action. And in a meeting with Rangel, volleyball mom Michelle Peters threatened to stop paying, saying she felt her 15-year-old daughter wasn't getting the advertised program (parents at the facility pay $4,300 for a seven-month season). 'What aren’t you getting?' Rangel asked during the meeting. 'Well, we’re not getting Misty May,' Peters responded. Rangel says most of the malcontent parents came from a club in Mission Viejo and were not happy when their former club director, who moved to work at the MMTSC, resigned over clashes with him. The 155,000-square-foot facility was pitched to May-Treanor by Rangel ahead of the 2012 London Olympics. Rangel wanted to built a state-of-the-art sports facility, while May-Treanor wanted to coach so it made the perfect project for the pair. The finished facility has 22 volleyball courts, 21 basketball courts - all with their own electric scoreboards. The facility also includes an air-conditioned 350-seat restaurant with 10 large HDTVs as an area to watch the games and practices.

Shoppers are in revolt at Swedish clothing giant H&M's decision to ban people from entering the store with their shopping trolleys. Customers have vented their outrage on the brand's global Facebook page after being refused entry to H&M's new store in Indooroopilly, in Brisbane's western suburbs, with their trolleys. The store opened in the local shopping centre on March 5. Customers have taken H&M's global Facebook page in anger after being refused entry to H&M's new store in Indooroopilly, in Brisbane's western suburbs, with their trolleys . One woman said it was 'rude' she was not allowed to bring her trolley in but others with prams were welcomed. 'When I questioned why, the guy told me someone could get hurt by the trolley, because it made out of steel,' she wrote. 'When I pointed out that prams are also made of metal and are just as bulky as a trolley and someone could also get hurt by them. 'He just replied it the company policy for both our stores. 'Do you also stop people in wheelchairs entering your store cause they are made of steel? Shame Shame on your Stores [sic].' One woman said it was rude for shoppers who had trolleys to be turned away while those with prams were allowed . A man said he had a similar experience saying he took his business elsewhere because of the snub . A representative of H&M replied to her Facebook message and apologised for the 'negative experience', but echoed the response the woman got in the store. 'Currently our policy does indeed restrict trolleys within the store, however we are always looking to improve our experience for customers and are currently reviewing this,' the representative said. They added: 'Please email us at info.au@hm.com if you would like to discuss this matter further.' Dissatisfied with the response, the woman said she would not be shopping with the retailer again. 'I will never again try and enter your store,' she wrote. 'I think your store needs too show some respect to the consumer.' While another woman said she 'won't bother returning again' because she was refused entry for having a trolley . A H&M spokeswoman said a higher incidence of accidents happened when trolleys were inside the store . A spokeswoman for the retailer told Daily Mail Australia they had experienced a higher incidence of trolley-related injuries when they were allowed in store. 'However we do appreciate the feedback we have received from our customers so we are continuing to evaluate this policy,' she said. The spokeswoman further clarified: 'This policy is in no way related to our customers with prams or in wheelchairs who are of course welcome in all of our stores.' But there were others who expressed displeasure about H&M's no trolley policy. One man said he had planned to spend $500 in the store until he was told he could not enter. 'I had my special needs 4 year old in the trolley to keep her contained... the trolley was to have room for the big purchase i was going to make. all that money went elsewhere [sic],' he said. While another woman also felt compelled to share her experience online and said she would not attempt to shop at H&M again. 'I was so excited to check out your Indooroopilly store today but was refused entry because I had my 2 children in a trolley. I won't bother returning again,' she said.
Clothing giant H&M has come under fire for its shopping trolley policy . Customers reported on retailer's Facebook page about being denied entry . They said they were told it was because their trolleys could 'hurt people' But H&M says it is part of their store policy to not allow trolleys inside . A spokeswoman said injuries happened more often with trolleys in store .

'Do you also stop people in wheelchairs entering your store cause they are made of steel? Shame Shame on your Stores [sic].' One woman said it was rude for shoppers who had trolleys to be turned away while those with prams were allowed . A man said he had a similar experience saying he took his business elsewhere because of the snub . A representative of H&M replied to her Facebook message and apologised for the 'negative experience', but echoed the response the woman got in the store. 'Currently our policy does indeed restrict trolleys within the store, however we are always looking to improve our experience for customers and are currently reviewing this,' the representative said. They added: 'Please email us at info.au@hm.com if you would like to discuss this matter further.' Dissatisfied with the response, the woman said she would not be shopping with the retailer again. 'I will never again try and enter your store,' she wrote. 'I think your store needs too show some respect to the consumer.' While another woman said she 'won't bother returning again' because she was refused entry for having a trolley . A H&M spokeswoman said a higher incidence of accidents happened when trolleys were inside the store . A spokeswoman for the retailer told Daily Mail Australia they had experienced a higher incidence of trolley-related injuries when they were allowed in store. 'However we do appreciate the feedback we have received from our customers so we are continuing to evaluate this policy,' she said. The spokeswoman further clarified: 'This policy is in no way related to our customers with prams or in wheelchairs who are of course welcome in all of our stores.' But there were others who expressed displeasure about H&M's no trolley policy. One man said he had planned to spend $500 in the store until he was told he could not enter. 'I had my special needs 4 year old in the trolley to keep her contained... the trolley was to have room for the big purchase i was going to make. all that money went elsewhere [sic],' he said. While another woman also felt compelled to share her experience online and said she would not attempt to shop at H&M again. 'I was so excited to check out your Indooroopilly store today but was refused entry because I had my 2 children in a trolley. I won't bother returning again,' she said. [/INST] Clothing giant H&M has come under fire for its shopping trolley policy . Customers reported on retailer's Facebook page about being denied entry . They said they were told it was because their trolleys could 'hurt people' But H&M says it is part of their store policy to not allow trolleys inside . A spokeswoman said injuries happened more often with trolleys in store . </s>
FIFA president Sepp Blatter has delivered a considerable snub to the BBC by turning down the opportunity to join a televised debate with his three challengers before the election in Zurich on May 29. Blatter was always expected to refuse the request, put to him in a letter from the BBC and Sky, for an hour-long debate with Prince Ali of Jordan, Luis Figo and Michael van Praag about their plans for leading FIFA. The event would have been hosted by top broadcasters from the two networks and given equal prominence to each candidate. FIFA president Sepp Blatter speaks to journalists after the IFAB meeting in Belfast last month . FIFA presidential hopeful Luis Figo takes notes during the CONMEBOL Ordinary Congress on March 4 . But rather than give a courteous answer by letter to the prominent TV stations, Blatter relayed the curt reply ‘thanks but no thanks’ via one of his flunkeys in a telephone call. This didn’t impress the BBC, who have been FIFA partners as World Cup rights-holders since proper live coverage started in 1966. Blatter’s three challengers replied by letter that they would be happy to participate. But the whole project depended on Blatter and he is not even prepared to outline his reasons for not taking part, let alone have his make-up applied for the TV cameras — in front of which he would have by far the most to lose. Far better for Blatter is to fast-track FIFA Goal Programme funding to African countries, where he enjoys mass voting support. Prince Ali of Jordan is pictured during a press conference in central London last month . Michael van Praag, also going for the FIFA presidency, poses for a photo in Schiphol earlier this month . Boxing promoter Barry McGuigan is in positive talks with ITV about super bantamweight Carl Frampton making his second world title defence on terrestrial TV. Frampton’s win over Chris Avalos in Belfast’s Odyssey Arena last month had far more impact because it was on free-to-air television. ITV say their plans for screening boxing are on a fight-by-fight basis. Carl Frampton is lifted up by trainer Shane McGuigan after defeating Chris Avalos in Belfast last month . The Premier League have caused plenty of angst for the FA by flexing their financial muscle during power battles. However the FA, who have the power of veto as the 21st shareholder in the PL, will not object to CEO Richard Scudamore becoming executive chairman and the governance statute changes that will trigger. Sport England, who fund grassroots sport, make no secret that they are hugely influenced by the participation findings of the Active People Survey when doling out cash.

(CNN)A documentary on the life of late singer Amy Winehouse will be released in Britain on July 3, just weeks before the fourth anniversary of her death, the film's production company says. "Amy" seeks to "truly capture not just the great artist that she was, but also the funny and loving person that most people didn't get a chance to know," the filmmakers said on Facebook after announcing the film in 2013. It will feature "extensive unseen archive footage and previously unheard tracks," Deadline reported Wednesday. No U.S. release date has been set, Deadline reported. Despite releasing just two albums before her death of alcohol poisoning at the age of 27 on July 23, 2011, the British singer's smoky voice and songwriting won widespread acclaim and six Grammy Awards. "Amy" follows a poorly received biopic, "Fallen Star," released in 2013. The film was not authorized by the family and, unlike "Amy," featured none of the star's music. Winehouse's father, Mitch Winehouse, called that film "rubbish." The team behind the new film includes Asif Kapadia, who directed the documentary "Senna," on the life of Brazilian Formula 1 racer Ayrton Senna. The film won two BAFTA awards. The Winehouse family said in a 2013 statement that it was behind Kapadia's take on the singer's life. "The award-winning producers of Senna presented a vision that would look at Amy's story sensitively, honestly and without sensationalising her," the family statement said. "We want this to be a tribute to her musical legacy." A life cut short: Remembering the tragedy of Amy Winehouse .

They've been pumped up as TV's toughest cops, with endless promotions running on Channel Ten’s website and on television. But now the Gold Coast Cops show appears destined for the television scrapheap after a decision to dump the stars known as the ‘Rapid Action & Patrols Group’ (RAP), after they were labelled ‘a bunch of show boaters’, and who some internal critics say are not really responsible for proper policing. Season two is set to air tonight but a political power play, along with anger and jealousy which has gripped the rank and file about the so-called 'elite squad', has all but sounded its death knell. Scroll down for video . The crack team of Rapid Action & Patrols Group could have a limited future on the Channel Ten screen with rumours it is about to be disbanded . Actor Samuel Johnson (centre) pictured with Superintendent Jim Keogh (left) and Inspector Shane Holmes (right). Johnson returns as narrator for the second season in Gold Coast Cops . On the beat. The team has been criticised for 'showboating' by some Queensland Police colleagues but their boss, Jim Keogh, says the results speak for themselves . Network Ten says it expects the second season to run its full course. 'It is business as usual. We are concentrating on producing Season Two of Gold Coast Cops which airs tonight on TEN at 7.30pm,' the Network said in a statement. Ten's website continues to promote the series, saying: 'The elite taskforce is responsible for policing everything from bikie gangs and street violence to drug heists and organised crime.' 'Led by Superintendent Jim Keogh, the unit offers the community a permanent police presence on the Gold Coast.' 'Superintendent Jim Keogh said: "Officers are committed to restoring public confidence by focusing on public disorder and street violence through high visibility policing. 'Officers will respond to incidents requiring a priority response. Should the matter involve a protracted investigation, specialist units will be utilised as necessary,' he said. The second series, narrated by actor Samuel Johnson, returns to screens on Tuesday night (from 7.30pm) which much of the content derived from the December and January holiday periods on the Gold Coast. Since it was first formed in September of 2013, Jim Keogh has overseen the task-force, growing from a team of  50 to double that size with the majority of whom were hand-picked by him. A former member says it is not right to call then 'the elite' One of the stars of the Gold Coast Cops show on Network Ten, Senior Constable Kristee "K Rock' La Rocca . The problem for the RAP squad, which was set up to tackle the state's tougher anti-bikie laws, is that members of the new government front-bench have openly criticised the decision by the the previous Newman Government to allow unfettered access to the unit by Ten cameras. Privately, Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk is also believed to have concerns about the team and the vision made available by the crack police squad on the Gold Coast. What is abundantly clear though, is the displeasure of rank and file, who have labelled their colleagues 'show-boaters'. Leading to further speculation it will be shut down is that RAP Commander, Superintendent Jim Keogh, is due to return to duties in Brisbane. It's believed the squad members will now be absorbed back into the general police population and the 3-year lease on the high-tech set-up at Varsity Lakes allowed to run out. The RAP crew is not particularly well liked in their home state because of the hype and publicity they have been receiving, since the show first went to air. One colleague, who also works the Surfers Paradise beat, told Daily Mail Australia: 'What they are doing and have done is not widely respected, they're glorified actors and this is a serious business. Two of the stars of the show, Supt Jim Keogh and Sgt Carla Sara, who is affectionately known as the 'Pocket Rocket'. She moved from Bondi to the Gold Coast and is now a team leader . 'What's worse is they are not the sole reason things are getting cleaned up on the coast, it's the rank and file, to be honest. 'They think they are the best or toughest or something but they're pretty ineffective, despite what the Super might say and the figures they quote.' And a former member of the RAP team actually agrees with the criticism. 'The promotion of it was the problem because in the first couple of episodes they called the team the elite, and I think they still do, so I can understand why some of the others got their noses out of joint,' one source said. 'To term it "elite" when it wasn't right made it them against us sort of feeling, they should never have used elite. 'They were mostly just young kids that after their first year, got a station for three years and the bosses went through and picked the ones they thought were good workers. 'Yes, there was that sort of picking and choosing, but not elite.' The crew, hand-picked by Supt Keogh, has been run out of a new technology hub on the Gold Coast. A current member of the RAP team dismissed claims they were ineffective. 'Mate, I have been bombarded by everyone wanting to know why are being disbanded and I have no idea,' he said. 'People have asked why would they do this when the Gold Coast is as clean and safe as it has ever been. 'It looks like we are on borrowed time, I don't know why.' And the numbers back up those claims. Almost 4500 arrests have been made since its inception in 2013, on the back of more than 400 raids. Daily Mail Australia understands all members of the team will be placed under the control of the Gold Coast Police District, when Inspector Shane Holmes, like Keogh, is also expected to return to Brisbane. 'It's a good squad, we were formed to clean up the streets of the Gold Coast and we have but there are political games at play.' Even the production company has not committed to a third season. The Palaszczuk Government, for its part, denies it has anything to do with decisions about the future of RAP. Inspector Shane Holmes (left) is the Operations Co-ordinator for the Rapid Action Patrol Group, while Constable Daniel Lees (right) has been quote in promos as saying 'the main thing I don’t like about bikies is they’re bullies. And I’ve never liked bullies' Minister for Police, Fire & Emergency Services, Jo-Ann Miller did not exactly give the group a ringing endorsement when asked if it would be disbanded. 'The Palaszczuk Government supports Gold Coast police 100 per cent in their effort to keep the community safe,' she said. 'The Rapid Action and Patrol Group is not being dismantled by this government. I don’t have a view about where individual officers should be based. 'That is, rightly, a matter solely for the Commissioner,' she said. Daily Mail Australia is still awaiting an official response from Queensland Police. However, an email sent to members of the RAP group has been obtained by Daily Mail Australia, which attempted to hose down the speculation. 'I am aware that there has been considerable discussion about the future of the group, I have had lengthy discussions (with senior officials) who insist there will be no deviation from the current plan.'

Airport parking in the UK is officially the most expensive in the world. Five of the airports servicing London - London City, Gatwick, Heathrow, Luton and Stansted - and also Edinburgh and Manchester airports feature in the top ten most expensive airports for parking across the globe, with London City Airport topping the leaderboard at £315 per week. In many cases that may be more than the total price of the holiday booked. London City Airport's proximity in the heart of London means the site urges travellers to use public transport if possible - it's worth considering when parking can be as much as £315 per week . How the airports around the world ranked where it came to car parking . Even when booked in advance, a week's parking at London City is twice the price of New York's JFK Airport - and nearly three times the cost of parking at Tokyo International Airport, research by Justpark.com has discovered. Parking rip-offs are not only suffered by holidaymakers leaving their cars at the airport while travelling abroad. Those collecting friends and family from airports are also charged extortionate amounts for short-term parking, paying £15 for 1-2 hours at London City and £12 at Heathrow. Following London City int he rankings is London Heathrow, where it costs an average of £167 a week to park. The UK dominance is broken as Sydney enters in third spot - parking there for seven days costs around £138. Parking at Heathrow Airport was found to be the second most expensive in the world at £167 per week . Anthony Eskinazi, founder of JustPark, said: 'We've long known that airport parking is overpriced across the country, but all the same these new revelations are remarkable. 'Finding that seven of the world's ten most expensive airports are here in the UK shows the extent of the problem we are facing.' You could... Enjoy a seven-night all-inclusive stay at the four-star Mogan Princess & Beach Club in Taurito, Gran Canaria departing on June 17. Price - £271 per person, flights and hotel. Spend seven nights, all-inclusive at the four-star Elounda Residence in Greece, flying from Gatwick on May 5. Price - £224 per person, flights and hotel. Stay at the five-star Grand Yazici Mares Hotel in Icmeler, Turkey, all-inclusive, flying out of Stansted on April 15. Price - £197 per person, flights and hotel. Spend seven nights, all-inclusive at the four star Beach Albatross, in Agadir, Morocco, flying from Gatwick on April 21. Price - £314 per person, flights and hotel. He added: 'When people are paying more for their airport parking than their flights, something needs to change. We want to redress this balance and make airport parking more affordable.' The high cost of airport parking in the UK has led holiday-makers to seek alternative, more affordable options. Over 600,000 drivers use the app and website JustPark to find and book parking spaces on local residential driveways, rather than paying airport prices.

<s>[INST] Airport parking in the UK is officially the most expensive in the world. Five of the airports servicing London - London City, Gatwick, Heathrow, Luton and Stansted - and also Edinburgh and Manchester airports feature in the top ten most expensive airports for parking across the globe, with London City Airport topping the leaderboard at £315 per week. In many cases that may be more than the total price of the holiday booked. London City Airport's proximity in the heart of London means the site urges travellers to use public transport if possible - it's worth considering when parking can be as much as £315 per week . How the airports around the world ranked where it came to car parking . Even when booked in advance, a week's parking at London City is twice the price of New York's JFK Airport - and nearly three times the cost of parking at Tokyo International Airport, research by Justpark.com has discovered. Parking rip-offs are not only suffered by holidaymakers leaving their cars at the airport while travelling abroad. Those collecting friends and family from airports are also charged extortionate amounts for short-term parking, paying £15 for 1-2 hours at London City and £12 at Heathrow. Following London City int he rankings is London Heathrow, where it costs an average of £167 a week to park. The UK dominance is broken as Sydney enters in third spot - parking there for seven days costs around £138. Parking at Heathrow Airport was found to be the second most expensive in the world at £167 per week . Anthony Eskinazi, founder of JustPark, said: 'We've long known that airport parking is overpriced across the country, but all the same these new revelations are remarkable. 'Finding that seven of the world's ten most expensive airports are here in the UK shows the extent of the problem we are facing.' You could... Enjoy a seven-night all-inclusive stay at the four-star Mogan Princess & Beach Club in Taurito, Gran Canaria departing on June 17. Price - £271 per person, flights and hotel. Spend seven nights, all-inclusive at the four-star Elounda Residence in Greece, flying from Gatwick on May 5. Price - £224 per person, flights and hotel. Stay at the five-star Grand Yazici Mares Hotel in Icmeler, Turkey, all-inclusive, flying out of Stansted on April 15. Price - £197 per person, flights and hotel. Spend seven nights, all-inclusive at the four star Beach Albatross, in Agadir, Morocco, flying from Gatwick on April 21. Price - £314 per person, flights and hotel. He added: 'When people are paying more for their airport parking than their flights, something needs to change. We want to redress this balance and make airport parking more affordable.' The high cost of airport parking in the UK has led holiday-makers to seek alternative, more affordable options. Over 600,000 drivers use the app and website JustPark to find and book parking spaces on local residential driveways, rather than paying airport prices. More than 200 Heathrow homeowners are renting out their driveways for as little as £21.50 per week through JustPark, giving holidaymakers an 85 per cent saving on official airport parking and putting money back into local people's pockets.

Andreas Lubitz bought two Audis in the weeks before Tuesday's crash and was planning to give one to his girlfriend . Germanwings pilot Andreas Lubitz bought two brand new cars several weeks ago and was going to give one of them to his girlfriend, it has been claimed. Lubitz, 28, purchased the Audis from a dealership on the outskirts of Dusseldorf, near the apartment where he lived with his girlfriend. One of the cars had been delivered last weekend, just three days before the tragedy. Focus magazine said it was not known whether the car which was delivered last weekend was for Lubitz or his girlfriend. However, despite the gift, German media claimed that Lubitz's relationship was in trouble and the couple may have split up. This has been seen as a contributory factor to Tuesday's tragedy. The woman, who has not been named, is understood to be staying with family while German investigators conduct a full forensic search of the property in Dusseldorf. The couple lived in a smart top floor apartment on the outskirts of the city. Habibalah Hassani, 53, who runs a pizza restaurant close to their flat said he had often seen them together. 'They were a very nice, friendly young couple. She was a polite and attractive woman. They would come in once maybe twice a week. 'He used to tip well, he was very generous. He had told me about his trip to San Francisco. I hadn't seen them for a couple of months before this happened.' Scroll down for video . German investigators removed dozens of boxes from the Dusseldorf apartment Andreas Lubitz shared with his girlfriend searching for clues which could possible explain the reasons behind Tuesday's disaster . Investigators found a torn up sicknote which was valid on the day of the crash among other evidence . Another neighbour who declined to be named confirmed he lived at the flat with his girlfriend. 'I think she will be with her family grieving at the moment. It is very sad.' German media claimed that Lubitz was receiving treatment for depression and had been certified sick on the day of the disaster. Ralf Herrenbrueck of the Dusseldorf prosecutors' office said the discovering of sicknotes inside the property 'support the current preliminary assessment that the deceased hid his illness from his employer and colleagues'. Mr Herrenbrueck said other documents found he was suffering from 'an existing illness and appropriate medical treatment'. Prosecutors claim they have not found any evidence linking Lubitz to terrorism or any form of religious extremism. The thorough search has failed to find any suicide note among dozens of boxes removed from the apartment and Lubitz's family home in Montabaur. Meanwhile, it has emerged that Lubitz knew the area in the Alps where he crashed the Airbus A-320 because he used to visit the area to fly gliders. Dieter Wagner of Montabaur flying club said: 'Andreas has participated in one of his courses in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence with my niece, who was a good friend to him. He was passionate about the Alps and even obsessed. I'm sure he knew the area of the crash well because he had flown in a glider.' Ernst Muller, also a member of the club added: 'I am certain that Andreas has participated at least once or two internships with us in Sisteron (Alpes-de-Haute-Provence)'.
One of the cars was delivered just three days before Tuesday's tragedy . Andreas Lubitz had been suffering from depression before his death . He and his girlfriend had been experiencing 'difficulties' before the crash . His girlfriend is staying with family while police search their apartment .

After two drama-filled defeats in a week to local rivals Aston Villa, victory over Stoke, the club he managed for seven years before they judged his work there to be done, was a welcome tonic for Tony Pulis. A fourth consecutive clean sheet at home and a first-half goal from Brown Ideye takes West Bromwich Albion to 13th and 11 points from the drop zone. When Pulis, the engineer of Crystal Palace’s great escape last season, took over in January they hovered just one point above the bottom three, offering little to inspire optimism among their fans. Now their place in the top tier looks secure. Stoke were aiming at a fourth win in a row for the first time since 2011 but Pulis halted their progress. He said: ‘It doesn’t mean any more to win over Stoke, I had a wonderful journey there and left them in a sound financial and good position and did wonderful things. Today was about West Brom getting the points.’ Brown Ideye scores the opening goal during the match between West Bromwich Albion and Stoke City . Ideye's opener was the only goal of the game as West Bromwich Albion beat Stoke at the Hawthorns . Pulis praised the contribution made by Darren Fletcher, who arrived at The Hawthorns on a free transfer on January deadline day after a lengthy struggle with ulcerative colitis in his later years at Manchester United. ‘He’s been a fantastic signing,’ said Pulis. ‘A tremendous lad. His enthusiasm and energy levels are brilliant. I don’t know what illness it was but he looks as sprightly as any 20-year-old. I thought he and James Morrison [who partners Fletcher for Scotland] dominated the midfield.’ There were a few controversial moments, such as referee Michael Oliver’s decision to wave away what seemed a blatant penalty for Geoff Cameron’s hefty second-half challenge on Craig Dawson in the box. Oliver, who was praised for his officiating of Manchester United’s FA Cup defeat by Arsenal on Monday, is likely to get attention for different reasons after waving away penalty appeals, to Pulis’s obvious fury. ‘Michael will look at that again and be very disappointed, that’s a blatant a penalty as I’ve seen in a long time,’ he said. A beautiful cross into the box from Craig Gardner led to the goal in the 19th minute. It was expertly headed in at the far post by a stooping Ideye, who found it far too easy to escape the attentions of Phil Bardsley. Stoke had few chances and manager Mark Hughes lamented: ‘It was just one of those days when we had too many underperforming.’ Ideye celebrates as his first half goal earns the Baggies their fourth successive home win . Craig Gardner celebrates with Ideye in the first half of the game against Stoke City on Saturday . England youngster Saido Berahino joins in with the celebrations as the hosts beat Stoke City .

Pulis, who was given the Manager of the Month award for February, has now won seven of 13 games since taking over and appears to have extracted extra oomph from Ideye. Or perhaps it was the threat of life in the Qatari desert that did it. West Brom were close to taking a £6m hit selling him to al-Gharafi but the 26-year-old refused the move and both parties must be glad of his stubbornness now. Ideye thought he had nicked another in the 33rd minute, pouncing after Begovic spilled the ball, but was rightly ruled offside. Ideye limped off in the 40th minute after being clattered by Charlie Adam but hobbled back on seconds later. Ben Foster also suffered a knock to the knee. He struggled on for a while with Chris Brunt stepping in to take free kicks but was eventually replaced by Boaz Myhill after 55 minutes. The deputy did his job well, tipping a Jon Walters header over the bar as a reenergised Stoke sought the equalizer.

A Texas lawyer has come forward claiming he is responsible for plastering stickers that read 'Exclusively For White People' onto business storefronts last week. Adam Reposa, 40, a criminal defense attorney explained why he put up the stickers in a video posted on Thursday, titled Why I did it. A shirtless Reposa is seen saying it would be obvious that even though people know the real problem, which is that 'people without money are getting pretty f***ed, they are getting pushed out and pretty quick this area of town is turning into whites only'. Scroll down for video . Adam Reposa, 40, a criminal defense attorney explained why he put up the stickers in a video posted on Thursday, titled Why I did it (above Reposa in his video) These stickers appeared last week between Tuesday and Wednesday on the storefronts of at least six Austin, Texas businesses . While it appears Reposa is claiming gentrification as his defense, Austin NAACP president said the issues in the community run deeper and Reposa's actions add to the problems, according to KVUE. Nelson Linder said: 'It's repugnant and also alarming, and also indicative of a mentality that doesn't understand race relations. 'So if you're trying to help race relations, you just did the worst thing you could possibly do.' A shirtless Reposa is seen saying it would be obvious that even though people know the real problem, which is that 'people without money are getting pretty f***ed, they are getting pushed out and pretty quick this area of town is turning into whites only' He said: 'Everyone is going to jump on "that's racist, that's racist", man this town and the way s*** works is racist . On Wednesday, a picture of the sticker on a local business surfaced on Facebook causing outrage after at least six businesses were left with the seals. Each one read in its entirety: 'Exclusively For White People. Maximum of five colored customers. Colored BOH (back of the house) staff accepted. Sponsored by the City of Austin Contemporary Partition and Restoration Program.' Reposa said he is not worried about offending people or stirring up racial tension. 'I've seen nothing but the emotional attachment that human beings place on events in history,' he said. 'It's regrettable and unfortunate and as soon as we can step beyond that precious of mawkish emotionality and just look at the real facts like human beings, is the moment that we have the chance for real progress.' In the video, Reposa said that everyone attacked the stickers saying 'it's racist' but did not consider the 'condition of the way things are'. While it appears Reposa is claiming gentrification as his defense, Austin NAACP president said the issues in the community run deeper and Reposa's actions add to the problems . Reposa said he is not worried about offending people or stirring up racial tension . He said: 'Everyone is going to jump on "that's racist, that's racist", man this town and the way s*** works is racist. 'But I knew I could bait all of y'all into being as stupid as you are and allowing the issue to be framed of the in the most simple way. "Oh he said an offensive term, let's not worry about the actually condition of the way things are, let's worry about an offensive term". 'And that's how they got it, they got it sewed up and they got this poor girl coming out here saying "it hurt my feelings", man who cares about your feelings man. Seriously? 'Are y'all gonna get pulled around like that y'alls' entire lives, or y'all just gonna stop givin a f***? I don't give a f*** and look at me. 'I use the technology every day to create possibilities. Apply the technology in your life and stop worrying about getting snitched on because it don't make a f*** what I did because I'm gonna do it again, I don't give a f***.' The 'technology' that Reposa references in the video is linked to a Facebook page that reads: 'Taking human beings out of a false sense of belief and into the darkness by removing any meaning attached to any event in life.' Reposa also wrote a sarcastic post on his personal page saying that he was not aware highlighting institutional racism was 'so repugnant'. It was reported that he said the full story would be revealed in a press conference on Friday . On the page he explains that the result of the 'The Technology' is that people 'who give a f*** passionately express their beliefs'. He also wrote a sarcastic post on his personal page saying that he was not aware highlighting institutional racism was 'so repugnant'. He wrote: 'My f***ing bad y'all. I had no idea that pointing to institutional racism was so repugnant. Wait a second, am I giving a f***. F*** that. I ain't sorry. I ain't nothing but a particle floating through the darkness.' He also wrote a sarcastic post on his personal Facebook page (above) saying that he was not aware highlighting institutional racism was 'so repugnant' Last week, staff at an East Austin bakery were left horrified were wondering who would want to announce to their customers 'Maximum of 5 colored customers/colored BOH staff accepted.'

<s>[INST] A Texas lawyer has come forward claiming he is responsible for plastering stickers that read 'Exclusively For White People' onto business storefronts last week. Adam Reposa, 40, a criminal defense attorney explained why he put up the stickers in a video posted on Thursday, titled Why I did it. A shirtless Reposa is seen saying it would be obvious that even though people know the real problem, which is that 'people without money are getting pretty f***ed, they are getting pushed out and pretty quick this area of town is turning into whites only'. Scroll down for video . Adam Reposa, 40, a criminal defense attorney explained why he put up the stickers in a video posted on Thursday, titled Why I did it (above Reposa in his video) These stickers appeared last week between Tuesday and Wednesday on the storefronts of at least six Austin, Texas businesses . While it appears Reposa is claiming gentrification as his defense, Austin NAACP president said the issues in the community run deeper and Reposa's actions add to the problems, according to KVUE. Nelson Linder said: 'It's repugnant and also alarming, and also indicative of a mentality that doesn't understand race relations. 'So if you're trying to help race relations, you just did the worst thing you could possibly do.' A shirtless Reposa is seen saying it would be obvious that even though people know the real problem, which is that 'people without money are getting pretty f***ed, they are getting pushed out and pretty quick this area of town is turning into whites only' He said: 'Everyone is going to jump on "that's racist, that's racist", man this town and the way s*** works is racist . On Wednesday, a picture of the sticker on a local business surfaced on Facebook causing outrage after at least six businesses were left with the seals. Each one read in its entirety: 'Exclusively For White People. Maximum of five colored customers. Colored BOH (back of the house) staff accepted. Sponsored by the City of Austin Contemporary Partition and Restoration Program.' Reposa said he is not worried about offending people or stirring up racial tension. 'I've seen nothing but the emotional attachment that human beings place on events in history,' he said. 'It's regrettable and unfortunate and as soon as we can step beyond that precious of mawkish emotionality and just look at the real facts like human beings, is the moment that we have the chance for real progress.' In the video, Reposa said that everyone attacked the stickers saying 'it's racist' but did not consider the 'condition of the way things are'. While it appears Reposa is claiming gentrification as his defense, Austin NAACP president said the issues in the community run deeper and Reposa's actions add to the problems . Reposa said he is not worried about offending people or stirring up racial tension . He said: 'Everyone is going to jump on "that's racist, that's racist", man this town and the way s*** works is racist. 'But I knew I could bait all of y'all into being as stupid as you are and allowing the issue to be framed of the in the most simple way. "Oh he said an offensive term, let's not worry about the actually condition of the way things are, let's worry about an offensive term". 'And that's how they got it, they got it sewed up and they got this poor girl coming out here saying "it hurt my feelings", man who cares about your feelings man. Seriously? 'Are y'all gonna get pulled around like that y'alls' entire lives, or y'all just gonna stop givin a f***? I don't give a f*** and look at me. 'I use the technology every day to create possibilities. Apply the technology in your life and stop worrying about getting snitched on because it don't make a f*** what I did because I'm gonna do it again, I don't give a f***.' The 'technology' that Reposa references in the video is linked to a Facebook page that reads: 'Taking human beings out of a false sense of belief and into the darkness by removing any meaning attached to any event in life.' Reposa also wrote a sarcastic post on his personal page saying that he was not aware highlighting institutional racism was 'so repugnant'. It was reported that he said the full story would be revealed in a press conference on Friday . On the page he explains that the result of the 'The Technology' is that people 'who give a f*** passionately express their beliefs'. He also wrote a sarcastic post on his personal page saying that he was not aware highlighting institutional racism was 'so repugnant'. He wrote: 'My f***ing bad y'all. I had no idea that pointing to institutional racism was so repugnant. Wait a second, am I giving a f***. F*** that. I ain't sorry. I ain't nothing but a particle floating through the darkness.' He also wrote a sarcastic post on his personal Facebook page (above) saying that he was not aware highlighting institutional racism was 'so repugnant' Last week, staff at an East Austin bakery were left horrified were wondering who would want to announce to their customers 'Maximum of 5 colored customers/colored BOH staff accepted.'

A man was left in agony after fracturing his penis during sex. The 42-year-old had to undergo emergency surgery after snapping a fibrous membrane inside the organ. His erect phallus had inadvertently collided with his partner’s perineum, the area in front of the anus. The man heard a snap, felt his penis become immediately flaccid, and noticed a rush of blood from the tip. He was rushed to the A&E department of a Boston hospital as he was suffering severe pain, according to a case report in the New England Journal of Medicine.

When he arrived at hospital, he was taken straight to the operating room for emergency repair. Doctors said the consequences of such a fracture include erectile dysfunction, as scar tissue known as fibrous plaques can form in the penis, meaning . They warned it is also possible to suffer a curve or bend in the penis, and damage to the nerves in the genitals. Fortunately, the man, who was seen three and six months after surgery, regained his ability to obtain an erection - without any noticeable curvature or plaque forming in his penis. The news comes after MailOnline reported on the story of Edward Stalling, who endured a painful erection for several weeks. He has suffered a rare side effect to a sleeping tablet given to him in hospital. Mr Stalling was hospitalised for 10 days as doctors treated his prolonged erection. He developed fibrosis – where the arteries and muscles in the penis becoming hardened with fibrous tissue – as a result of the continued erection. He claims this has left him impotent and with difficulty urinating - and is suing the hospital for not making the side effects of the sleeping tablets clear to him.

A cup of coffee is the perfect pick-me-up for many people around the world. But it’s not just human beings that require a caffeine fix anymore. Apparently our canine friends are also partial to the odd skinny latte from time-to-time. Or at least one dog named Apollo, whose hilarious reaction was filmed by his owners in Saint Catharines, Canada. Filmed in the lounge, German Shepherd is initially featured counting sheep while enjoying a lazy Saturday morning on the sofa. Appearing to address the camera, its owner is only able to utter the word ‘coffee’ before the dog’s ears stand on end and its head turns towards her attentively. The dog is initially filmed resting on a sofa and appears to be enjoying a relaxed Saturday morning . Listening as the woman continues to speak, the dog seems to wait for her to finish her sentence. But as she uses the word coffee again, it springs from its seat and makes its way around the table and towards her. Whining in excitement, the animated dog begins pacing in anticipation while its fellow pets in the house look on bemusedly. The owner utters the word 'coffee' and the dog named Apollo looks up attentively and points its ears . Explaining the dog’s behaviour, the owners told Newsflare that the German Shepherd, which is now three-years-old, has visited Tim Hortons coffee shop with them every Saturday since it was a year old. She explained: ‘So every Saturday morning since he was a year old we have gone to Tim Hortons for our morning coffee, he has always come for the ride! If we don't go to Tim Hortons within the first hour or two upon waking up, he starts to wine and nudge us. 'This morn we were up an hour and I then started to video him before I said the words.. We can't say coffee in our house!' After the woman mentions the word 'coffee' again, the dog springs to its feet and begins whining and pacing the room in excitement .
The dog lifts its head and points its ears after hearing the word . Before running around the table and whining in excitement . Owner said Apollo has visited the coffee shop for two years .

'Ancient' statues filmed being destroyed by depraved Islamic State militants in a Mosul museum last month were nothing more than worthless fakes, the director of an Iraqi museum has claimed. The terrorist organisation released shocking footage at the end of February purportedly showing jihadis destroying 3,000-year-old artworks with sledgehammers in their northern Iraqi stronghold. But now Baghdad museum director Fawzye al-Mahdi has ridiculed ISIS' propaganda exercise, claiming the genuine priceless Assyrian and Akkadian statues and sculptures are still safely in his possession in the Iraqi capital, adding that those in Mosul were plaster cast replicas. Sick: The terrorist organisation released shocking footage at the end of February purportedly showing jihadis destroying 3,000-year-old artworks with sledgehammers in their northern Iraqi stronghold . Speaking to German news programme Deutsche Welle, Al-Mahdi said: 'None of the artifacts are originals... They were copies. The originals are all here.' The museum director's claims appear to back-up those made by experts on the Iraqi statues. Within hours of the original ISIS propaganda video being released, analysts questioned why the statues appeared to crumble so easily. Others stated that they couldn't possibly be 3,000 years old as some of the are clearly held together by iron poles - a considerably more modern practice. Mark Altaweel, an expert at the Institute of Archaeology at University College, London, told Channel 4 News at the time: 'You can see iron bars inside... The originals don't have iron bars.' Propaganda: Baghdad museum director Fawzye al-Mahdi ridiculed ISIS' video, claiming the genuine Assyrian and Akkadian statues are safely in Baghdad and that those in Mosul were plaster cast replicas . Following the February video release, Mosul's exiled governor Atheel Nuafi also stated that the vast majority of the statues were fakes, but added that at least two of those destroyed were originals. 'There were two items that were real and which the militants destroyed. One is a Winged Bull and the other was the God of Rozhan,' the Saudi-based Al Arabiya news organisation quoted him as saying. The Winged Bull, which is seen being smashed with sledgehammers in the video, is probably one which stood at the gates of Nineveh in the 7th century BC, claimed the International Business Times. 'I think the Winged Bull is very important locally, because it's one of the few objects that hasn't left the country or gone to Baghdad,' Eleanor Robson, chair of the British Institute for the Study of Iraq, told the news organisation. Real: An ISIS militant uses a power tool to destroy a 7th century winged-bull Assyrian protective deity. The statue is thought to have been one of only two genuine artifacts destroyed by ISIS in the video . Until 2003, Mosul museum had the second biggest collection of ancient relics in Iraq, including thousands of items from Nineveh and other ancient centers of Northern Mesopotamia. Amid the Western military operation  against Saddam Hussein that year, looters ransacked the building. Employees managed to save the majority of the items, and then moved most to Baghdad. ISIS militants began destroying ancient statues and monuments shortly after they first seized control of Mosul last summer, describing them as 'worthless idols'. A man shown in the video said the items were being destroyed because they promoted idolatry. 'The Prophet ordered us to get rid of statues and relics, and his companions did the same when they conquered countries after him,' the unidentified man said. Historic loss: Large segments of the priceless winged-bull Assyrian protective deity are hurled to the ground as militants smash it to pieces . Mosul, the biggest city in the Islamic State group's self-declared caliphate, boasts a relatively educated, diverse population that seeks to preserve its heritage sites and libraries. In the chaos that followed the U.S.-led invasion of 2003 that toppled Saddam Hussein, residents near the Central Library hid some of its centuries-old manuscripts in their own homes to prevent their theft or destruction by looters. But this time, the Islamic State group has made the penalty for such actions death. A University of Mosul history professor, who spoke on condition he not be named because of his fear of the Islamic State group, said the extremists started wrecking the collections of other public libraries in December. He reported particularly heavy damage to the archives of a Sunni Muslim library, the library of the 265-year-old Latin Church and Monastery of the Dominican Fathers and the Mosul Museum Library with works dating back to 5000 BC.

Jeremy Clarkson was last night at the centre of renewed controversy after he said foreign taxi drivers in London have ‘vehicles smelling of sick’. The Top Gear host – whose future at the BBC is in doubt amid claims that he punched a producer – made the controversial comments in the March edition of Top Gear magazine. He wrote: ‘In London, there are two types of [cab] driver. Jeremy Clarkson behind the wheel of his car leaving his house in London yesterday. He now at the centre of a new controversy after saying that foreign taxi drivers in London have cars 'smelling of sick' ‘You have a chap who has just arrived from a country you’ve never heard of, whose car smells faintly of lavender oil and sick, who doesn’t know where he’s going and can’t get there anyway because he never puts more than £2 worth of fuel in the tank of his car. ‘Then you have someone in a suit in a smart black Mercedes S-Class who does know where he’s going and is very polite but he charges around £7,500 a mile.’ He also turned on drivers in the North, saying northern roads are overrun with immigrants ‘who have never experienced tarmac before’. Although it was unclear last night when Clarkson, 54, wrote the article, it was almost certainly before the dust-up in North Yorkshire, and sources close to the presenter believe his enemies immediately latched on to the magazine remarks to pile more pressure on the beleaguered star. Although it was unclear last night when Clarkson, 54, pictured, wrote the article, it was almost certainly before the dust-up in North Yorkshire . Labour MP Helen Goodman had earlier said: ‘These are not the reactions of someone on a peace mission. He’s trying to maximise the conflict. 'As an MP for a northern constituency, I can tell you he’s talking complete nonsense.’ Clarkson’s magazine comments were an embarrassing distraction for the presenter on the day he faced an interrogation over his dust-up with Top Gear producer Oisin Tymon by BBC chiefs, who are said to be ‘desperate’ to get rid of him. Ken MacQuarrie, head of BBC Scotland, is leading an inquiry into the fracas and is expected to deliver a verdict within days. The inflammatory comments follow a string of rows over racism. Last year, Clarkson apologised after he was filmed allegedly using the N-word in the poem ‘Eeny, meeny, miney, moe’. Top Gear producer Oisin Tymon, who was allegedly punched by Clarkson following a dust-up with the presenter following a day's filming . Shortly afterwards, he used the racist term ‘slope’ in a programme about Burma. However, Clarkson has the backing of David Cameron, as well as Top Gear’s fans. More than 935,000 signed an online petition to reinstate him on the show. He also received support from the stuntman who played ‘The Stig’. Perry McCarthy said Top Gear would lose its ‘fire’ without Clarkson.

He wrote: ‘In London, there are two types of [cab] driver. Jeremy Clarkson behind the wheel of his car leaving his house in London yesterday. He now at the centre of a new controversy after saying that foreign taxi drivers in London have cars 'smelling of sick' ‘You have a chap who has just arrived from a country you’ve never heard of, whose car smells faintly of lavender oil and sick, who doesn’t know where he’s going and can’t get there anyway because he never puts more than £2 worth of fuel in the tank of his car. ‘Then you have someone in a suit in a smart black Mercedes S-Class who does know where he’s going and is very polite but he charges around £7,500 a mile.’ He also turned on drivers in the North, saying northern roads are overrun with immigrants ‘who have never experienced tarmac before’. Although it was unclear last night when Clarkson, 54, wrote the article, it was almost certainly before the dust-up in North Yorkshire, and sources close to the presenter believe his enemies immediately latched on to the magazine remarks to pile more pressure on the beleaguered star. Although it was unclear last night when Clarkson, 54, pictured, wrote the article, it was almost certainly before the dust-up in North Yorkshire . Labour MP Helen Goodman had earlier said: ‘These are not the reactions of someone on a peace mission. He’s trying to maximise the conflict. 'As an MP for a northern constituency, I can tell you he’s talking complete nonsense.’ Clarkson’s magazine comments were an embarrassing distraction for the presenter on the day he faced an interrogation over his dust-up with Top Gear producer Oisin Tymon by BBC chiefs, who are said to be ‘desperate’ to get rid of him. Ken MacQuarrie, head of BBC Scotland, is leading an inquiry into the fracas and is expected to deliver a verdict within days. The inflammatory comments follow a string of rows over racism. Last year, Clarkson apologised after he was filmed allegedly using the N-word in the poem ‘Eeny, meeny, miney, moe’. Top Gear producer Oisin Tymon, who was allegedly punched by Clarkson following a dust-up with the presenter following a day's filming . Shortly afterwards, he used the racist term ‘slope’ in a programme about Burma. However, Clarkson has the backing of David Cameron, as well as Top Gear’s fans. More than 935,000 signed an online petition to reinstate him on the show. He also received support from the stuntman who played ‘The Stig’. Perry McCarthy said Top Gear would lose its ‘fire’ without Clarkson. [/INST] Controversial presenter made the comments in the Top Gear magazine .

After little more than an hour of a match that was proving difficult for Liverpool, Jordan Henderson removed the captain’s armband from his left bicep and handed it to Steven Gerrard. He did so out of respect. He did so because he recognises that a player who only joined this contest as a second-half substitute remains arguably the finest to have represented the club. But four minutes after the exchange of that iconic piece of elastic came a moment when Gerrard might have felt it appropriate to hand it back.

It was then, 68 minutes into this contest, that Henderson did something that has long been synonymous with Gerrard: he came to Liverpool’s rescue. If it lacked finesse, and owed more to good fortune, a winning goal that narrowed the gap to Manchester United in the fierce battle for Champions League places owed everything to Henderson’s desire and determination. It was an ugly goal, Jordi Amat’s attempted clearance spinning off Henderson’s shin and flying beyond the reach of Lukasz Fabianski. But it was Henderson who made the run in pursuit of Daniel Sturridge’s flick-on and Henderson, after a stuttering first half, who had given Liverpool impetus with his ambition and endeavour after the break. The goal was Henderson's third in the last three Premier League games after his strikes against Manchester City and Burnley . Liverpool recorded their fifth successive Premier League victory ahead of their huge clash against Manchester United on Sunday . Henderson clattered into Shelvey with this kick to the head after just 16 seconds but Roger East opted not to even book him. If Gerrard had an impact, it was his deployment as a holding midfielder that allowed Henderson to get forward. And the fact the goal came so soon after Gerrard’s first appearance in eight games reflected well, once again, on Brendan Rodgers. Rodgers deserves enormous credit for the run of results Liverpool are enjoying. It is now 13 games unbeaten since they lost at Old Trafford in December and six away from home in the league without conceding a goal, an achievement that equals the club record set by Emlyn Hughes and Co in 1972. Rodgers has succeeded where some of his counterparts have failed in addressing the problems of a struggling side. It has been tactically astute leadership. But Rodgers also needed players to step out of Gerrard’s shadow and prove they can survive without him. Nobody has met that challenge with more authority than a young midfielder in Henderson now reflecting on three goals in Liverpool’s last three games. The pressure was on here with Sunday’s game against United at Anfield and a trip to Arsenal to follow. And against a Swansea side displaying a find blend of ambition and graft under the guidance of Garry Monk, Liverpool struggled in that opening 45 minutes. Monk might have been the managerial apprentice but Rodgers would have recognised how well Swansea’s players had mastered their boss’s instructions.

Skrtel would make another headed clearance to deny Gomis, who had escaped the clutches of the Liverpool back four to meet a cross from Kyle Naughton with a better header. Swansea were dominating possession and Gomis was proving a proper threat. A neat one-two with Routledge and he was through on goal with only Simon Mignolet to beat, but much to Monk’s dismay his shot was scuffed and Liverpool’s goalkeeper made the save.

But after the interval Liverpool were better — there was more urgency, more composure, with Henderson very much at the centre of things, even if the arrival of Gerrard from the bench was important. That gave Henderson freedom to bomb on and in the 68th minute he chased a fine ball forward from Skrtel that was diverted into the Swansea box by Sturridge. Sigurdsson attempts a shot from distance for Swansea as Joe Allen and Mamadou Sakho attempt to close him down . Amat and Henderson gave chase, with Amat winning the race but not the contest. It was tough on Swansea and Monk. Rodgers would have admired his former student for the way he prepared his team. Until Henderson’s goal, they looked the more likely winners.

So much so that they almost scored again moments before the final whistle, Sturridge sending his shot against a post.

Dick Advocaat has a warning for Sunderland’s under-performing players – ‘If you don’t put it in for me I’ll be on the pitch letting you know’. The Dutch boss watched in horror from his home in Holland last week as the Black Cats slumped to a 4-0 defeat against Aston Villa at the Stadium of Light, a result which cost Gus Poyet his job. Advocaat has revealed he was waiting for Poyet to be sacked before taking over – he was sounded out three weeks ago - and says he will not tolerate performances such as last weekend's sorry surrender. Dick Advocaat has never been relegated in his career and does not want Sunderland to be the first . ‘I was very disappointed (watching the game). When they scored, you could see that something is going wrong in the players’ heads,’ he said ahead of his first match in charge at West Ham. ‘When Aston Villa scored their fourth goal, five players were standing still. When they lost the ball up front, the ball went, and five players were walking back instead of running back. ‘This is not possible. I told them, “If I was beside the line, I would have been on the pitch”. That means that something is wrong.’ Advocaat said he was disappointed with the Sunderland player's reaction after they conceded . Sunderland are one place and one point above the relegation zone . Advocaat has never been relegated during a 28-year managerial career – and he doesn’t intend to make that a first on Wearside. ‘I have never been relegated and I always have the feeling that I will never go down,’ he said. ‘So I don’t really want to talk about that. I have been close, but that was when I was a very young manager. I started at SVV when I was 36 and we were champions in one of the lower leagues. We had a difficult season the following year, but we survived in the last game.’ Advocaat has just nine games to save Sunderland from the drop and is confident his influence can make a difference. Advocaat has nine games to help Sunderland avoid relegation . ‘It is always better if you start at the beginning of a season because then you can put all of your ideas in,’ he said. ‘But in terms of organisation, it is not that difficult to bring the players into step, so that everybody knows what to do. They have to do that. ‘If we are to going to win games, they have to do that.

Real estate mogul Donald Trump, a day after announcing he'll form a presidential exploratory committee, told activists on Thursday his business experience makes him the best candidate to reform Washington. 'We need people in Washington that know how to make a deal,' said Trump, who is considering a bid for the Republican nomination. Trump spoke at the home of New Hampshire state Rep. Steve Stepanek. Although Trump's critics say he would bring an unflattering and circus-like atmosphere to Republican politics, many people in the crowd said they appreciate the reality TV star's willingness to say exactly what he thinks. PRESIDENT 'THE DONALD'? Trump is shaking all the right hands in New Hampshire, an important early primary state, as he makes the case that he should run for the White House . I'M HIRING MYSELF: Trump was stumping for other candidates but his political operatives have told Daily Mail Online that he's serious about self-financing a his own campaign . 'A man that has the ability to handle the press, play with them and hold his ground, I have tremendous respect for that,' said Lori Davis, vice president of the GOP committee in Weare. 'He's not afraid.' Trump has repeatedly flirted with a presidential run, but he has recently begun hiring staff in early voting states, including New Hampshire. He did not stop to speak with reporters after the event Thursday but said as he got into a black SUV that he has a 'better chance than anybody' of beating former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, the Democratic favorite for the nomination. Trump shook a few hands as he headed toward the door rather than staying to mingle with the crowd of state lawmakers and activists. Earlier in the day, he attended private meetings with a group of New Hampshire veterans and Manchester Mayor Ted Gatsas. Trump's pitch to the crowd centered on his career as a businessman. Unlike some of his potential Republican rivals, he said, he would not cut entitlement programs such as Social Security and Medicaid. 'I would make this country so rich that you wouldn't have to cut it,' he said. HILLARY WHO? He said he's the best-positioned Republican to send Hillary Clinton packing in 2016 . Trump also suggested to the crowd that Wall Street financiers – he called many of them 'horrible people' – would negotiate better on the world stage than existing U.S. diplomats. His comments reflected the brash style that many in the audience said they'd like to see more of in Washington. 'I not only like it, I admire it,' said Randy Heller, an independent voter from Barrington. 'Many great men have high self-confidence.'
'The Donald' is expected to make an earnest run for president after flirting with the idea in 2012 . 'We need people in Washington that know how to make a deal,' said the business titan . Critics don't like the circus atmosphere a Trump candidacy might bring, but supporters say he's self-confident and plain-spoken .

'A man that has the ability to handle the press, play with them and hold his ground, I have tremendous respect for that,' said Lori Davis, vice president of the GOP committee in Weare. 'He's not afraid.' Trump has repeatedly flirted with a presidential run, but he has recently begun hiring staff in early voting states, including New Hampshire. He did not stop to speak with reporters after the event Thursday but said as he got into a black SUV that he has a 'better chance than anybody' of beating former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, the Democratic favorite for the nomination. Trump shook a few hands as he headed toward the door rather than staying to mingle with the crowd of state lawmakers and activists. Earlier in the day, he attended private meetings with a group of New Hampshire veterans and Manchester Mayor Ted Gatsas. Trump's pitch to the crowd centered on his career as a businessman. Unlike some of his potential Republican rivals, he said, he would not cut entitlement programs such as Social Security and Medicaid. 'I would make this country so rich that you wouldn't have to cut it,' he said. HILLARY WHO? He said he's the best-positioned Republican to send Hillary Clinton packing in 2016 . Trump also suggested to the crowd that Wall Street financiers – he called many of them 'horrible people' – would negotiate better on the world stage than existing U.S. diplomats. His comments reflected the brash style that many in the audience said they'd like to see more of in Washington. 'I not only like it, I admire it,' said Randy Heller, an independent voter from Barrington. 'Many great men have high self-confidence.' [/INST] 'The Donald' is expected to make an earnest run for president after flirting with the idea in 2012 . 'We need people in Washington that know how to make a deal,' said the business titan . Critics don't like the circus atmosphere a Trump candidacy might bring, but supporters say he's self-confident and plain-spoken . </s>
In an northeastern Indian town, residents are dying of breathing disorders and skin diseases at alarming rates as underground fires that have raged for nearly a century continue to blanket the city in toxic smoke. The town of Jharia, in India's northeastern Jharkhand province, plays host to more than 70 fires which have burned continuously beneath the earth's surface since 1916. Here the infernos have been left to burn unhindered following a coal mine collapse in the resource-rich region - which produced a blaze so intense authorities have balked for decades at the effort required to extinguish it. Villagers in Jharia, Jharkhand, warm themselves beside a fire made of coal scavenged from the vast mine . Miners work to repair a digger at the bottom of the open-cast mine, where fires have raged since 1916 .

A boy looks out over the mine which is eerily illuminated by the inferno raging beneath the earth's crust . A group of women carry baskets of coal back to their village to sell. Many families are forced to earn a living in the dangerous area . The region is resource rich with an estimated 1.5billion tonnes of untouched coal sitting beneath the surface . Seven-year-old Soni (centre) and her mother Savita (right) carry baskets of coal on their heads with a friend . A man bathes in water which is in itself badly contaminated after spending several days scavenging coal . Fuelled by billions of dollars worth of coal lying under the surface, the fires cause sinkholes which twenty years ago swallowed 250 homes within four hours. Toxic fumes - which include poisons such as sulfur, sulfur, carbon and nitrogen oxides - are a part of everyday life where coal emissions are causing devastatingly high rates of breathing disorders and skin diseases among locals. Residents and children spend their days clamoring over the hot ground to eke out a living by chiseling out pieces of coal to sell at local markets. The first coal mine fire was detected in the area in 1916 and is believed to be due to a open cast mine not being correctly decommissioned.

Tom Ince’s England future is in serious doubt after he and dad Paul took the decision to snub a place at the Under-21 European Championships this summer. Boss Gareth Southgate has warned his former England team-mate of the consequences of his son turning his back on the Three Lions. Ince Snr – England’s first black captain – has told Southgate they want to concentrate on Tom’s club career rather than represent his country in Czech Republic. Tom Ince has been left out of the latest England Under 21 squad by Gareth Southgate at his own request . Ince, currently on loan at Derby County, has been a regular under Southgate but will now not be selected . Goalkeepers . Marcus Bettinelli (Fulham) Jonathan Bond (Watford) Jack Butland (Stoke City) Defenders . Calum Chambers (Arsenal) Eric Dier (Tottenham Hotspur) Luke Garbutt (Everton) Ben Gibson (Middlesbrough) Carl Jenkinson (West Ham, on loan from Arsenal) Michael Keane (Burnley) Liam Moore (Brentford, on loan from Leicester City) John Stones (Everton) Matt Targett (Southampton) Midfielders . Tom Carroll (Swansea City, on loan from Tottenham Hotspur) Nathaniel Chalobah (Reading, on loan from Chelsea) Jake Forster-Caskey (Brighton and Hove Albion) Will Hughes (Derby County) Jesse Lingard (Derby County, on loan from Manchester United) Alex Pritchard (Brentford, on loan from Tottenham Hotspur) Nathan Redmond (Norwich City) James Ward-Prowse (Southampton) Forwards . Patrick Bamford (Middlesbrough, on loan from Chelsea) Saido Berahino (West Bromwich Albion) Danny Ings (Burnley) Callum Wilson (Bournemouth) That is certain to leave a bitter taste among those at the Football Association, including senior manager Roy Hodgson. Southgate said: ‘I have told Tom and Paul they need to be aware of the possible consequences of this decision in terms of how it would appear from the outside. I think they understand that. ‘I have had discussions with Tom and his dad over the last week or so and the message from both was exactly the same. I have to say I was surprised. ‘It was not something we’d been conscious of previously and it is for Tom to explain his full reasons. ‘But he feels at this moment in time he has got some priorities at club level. There is some uncertainty about where he is going to be next season.’ Southgate – speaking at Middlesbrough’s Riverside Stadium where he announced his squad for forthcoming friendlies with Czech Republic and Germany - added: ‘He will not be involved in the summer now. That’s because he has been through qualifying and I assumed he would have wanted to put himself on this big stage. England captain Paul Ince has his head bandaged and shirt covered in blood during a World Cup qualifier against Italy in Rome in 1997 . Southgate has warned Ince and father Paul of the consequences of the player turning his back on England . ‘I think in life you should be as open as you can to opportunities and stay in positions that lead to opportunities. Tom has decided this is an opportunity he doesn't want to take.’ Ince is currently on loan at Derby County after falling out of favour at Hull City, the club he only joined last summer amid interest from Inter Milan. However, it now appears he will again be on the move in the close-season. It was only this season that the 23-year-old told Sportsmail about his pride at representing England. Indeed, his dad’s blood-stained England shirt from the famous goalless draw in Italy which secured qualification for France ’98 is framed at home. Ince challenges for the ball with Middlesbrough's Lee Tomlin during Tuesday's top-of-the-table clash . And Ince had hoped for promotion to Hodgson’s full squad after his appearance at the Euros. ‘I’ve had two great years at Under-21 level and my ambition now is to try to push for the senior team,’ he said in September. ‘Playing for a club in the Premier League and the exposure that comes with that will hopefully provide me with the pathway to do it. ‘You can see at the minute Roy Hodgson is giving a lot of young players from the Under-21s and Premier League clubs a chance. I hope I can get that opportunity – although it doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate playing for the Under-21s at major tournaments.’

Jagger, pictured, died the night after winning a silver medal at Crufts following his return to Belgium . The pedigree dog allegedly ‘murdered’ at Crufts was probably poisoned the day after he competed in the show, the vet investigating his death said yesterday. Irish setter Jagger collapsed and died the night after winning a silver medal in his class at the competition following his return to his co-owners’ family home in Belgium. His distraught owners Willem and Aleksandra Lauwers are convinced he was fed beef laced with slow-acting toxins as he sat on the bench awaiting to perform at Crufts as it was the only time he was left unattended. But their family vet Dr Patrick Jans said Jagger fell ill so suddenly that it is more likely he ate the toxins shortly before he died. Speaking for the first time about the tragedy, he told the Mail: ‘I doubt that it happened at Crufts. I think it’s unlikely because of the long time delay. ‘I am surprised at everyone saying that this was the case.’ The dramatic new twist came as Crufts organisers the Kennel Club confirmed they are looking into a report that a second dog, an unnamed shih tzu, also died following the event. But they stressed they have received no details about the shih tzu, saying: ‘We cannot look into claims about which we have no direct information, which is why it essential that people come forward with any concerns.’ The Lauwers phoned Dr Jans’ practice at 2am on Saturday morning after Jagger fell ill soon after they had taken him for a walk in the area around their home in the village of Lauw, near Liege. Dr Jans said: ‘There was some suspicious content in the stomach. ‘I would be cautious about suspicion on where the problem was caused. Everything about Crufts is speculation. ‘It could have happened on their way back or even in the hours after they arrived back. ‘They told us that they came back at night and they took the dogs for a walk to do their business. ‘Then a few moments later the problem started. ‘It was a very long time between the show in England and the trip over to here, where nothing wrong was seen with the dog. ‘We feel his death was very acute - it was something that happened quite urgently, quite quickly. ‘I have my doubts about the story from Crufts.’ An autopsy carried out by his colleague Dr Claudia Minsen discovered miniscule black pellets similar to those used by farmers apparently ‘folded’ into pieces of beef in his stomach. Dr Jans said: ‘There were not three different types of poison as some people have speculated - only one. We think it may have been a pesticide. ‘Those kind of products are very common in agriculture and are relatively easy to get hold of.’ Vets believe that Jagger, pictured, was fed beef laced with black pellets before his death . Dr Jans said he had sent samples to the toxology department at the University of Ghent who are expected to report their findings early next week. He said: ‘It depends on the product, but I think when we have an indication of what product it was, then we can see a time scale of when things happened. ‘We informed the police of what we found. ‘They are taking it seriously and have informed the neighbourhood.’ Dr Minsen, who conducted the autopsy on the dog, said: ‘The meat seemed to be beef. There were little black pellets in it. ‘They were really, really tiny and there were a lot of them. They looked like agricultural pellets. ‘They weren’t injected into the meat, they were just folded into it. ‘I do believe it was put in deliberately but it could have been an accident.’ But speaking from her family home yesterday, Mrs Lauwers said: ‘It didn’t happen in Belgium – I am 100 per cent sure it happened in England. ‘We are convinced it happened there. ‘The CCTV from Crufts is being checked by someone we know. ‘I am convinced it didn’t happen here as my dog was 100 per cent attended.’ The revelations came as Jagger was cremated yesterday at a special centre for family pets twenty miles from the family home. The Lauwers brought his ashes home and plan to spread them in the coming weeks in woods near their home where he liked to walk. They also plan to spread some of his ashes in Kilby, Leicestershire where he was born and his British co-owner Dee Milligan-Bott runs a kennel. A further four dogs – two Shetland Sheepdogs, an Afghan and a West Highland Terrier - are also feared to have been poisoned at Crufts. But Kennel Club Secretary Caroline Kisko said: ‘Whilst reports surrounding the welfare of dogs at Crufts are taken with the utmost of seriousness, a number of the reports in the news about dogs becoming sick after leaving the show have been from anonymous sources, who have not reported the allegations to us or the police, and we cannot look into claims about which we have no direct information. ‘We urge these people and anybody else who may have similar concerns to come forward and report them to the Kennel Club.’ Anyone ‘caught attempting to deliberately sabotage another competitor’s performance, particularly if a dog’s welfare is put at risk’ will face severe disciplinary action and could be prosecuted under the Animal Welfare Act, she added. Andreas Schemel, the show's chief vet, said yesterday that it would be difficult to stop a poisoner if they wanted to commit a criminal act. And William Jeffels, another of the vets at the NEC in Birmingham, said dogs which they had treated for gastro-intestinal conditions could have been 'the victims of skullduggery'.
Vets performed a post mortem on Crufts silver medalist Jagger . The Irish setter died hours after he returned to Belgium following Crufts . His owners fear the dog was poisoned while at the renowned dog show .

They looked like agricultural pellets. ‘They weren’t injected into the meat, they were just folded into it. ‘I do believe it was put in deliberately but it could have been an accident.’ But speaking from her family home yesterday, Mrs Lauwers said: ‘It didn’t happen in Belgium – I am 100 per cent sure it happened in England. ‘We are convinced it happened there. ‘The CCTV from Crufts is being checked by someone we know. ‘I am convinced it didn’t happen here as my dog was 100 per cent attended.’ The revelations came as Jagger was cremated yesterday at a special centre for family pets twenty miles from the family home. The Lauwers brought his ashes home and plan to spread them in the coming weeks in woods near their home where he liked to walk. They also plan to spread some of his ashes in Kilby, Leicestershire where he was born and his British co-owner Dee Milligan-Bott runs a kennel. A further four dogs – two Shetland Sheepdogs, an Afghan and a West Highland Terrier - are also feared to have been poisoned at Crufts. But Kennel Club Secretary Caroline Kisko said: ‘Whilst reports surrounding the welfare of dogs at Crufts are taken with the utmost of seriousness, a number of the reports in the news about dogs becoming sick after leaving the show have been from anonymous sources, who have not reported the allegations to us or the police, and we cannot look into claims about which we have no direct information. ‘We urge these people and anybody else who may have similar concerns to come forward and report them to the Kennel Club.’ Anyone ‘caught attempting to deliberately sabotage another competitor’s performance, particularly if a dog’s welfare is put at risk’ will face severe disciplinary action and could be prosecuted under the Animal Welfare Act, she added. Andreas Schemel, the show's chief vet, said yesterday that it would be difficult to stop a poisoner if they wanted to commit a criminal act. And William Jeffels, another of the vets at the NEC in Birmingham, said dogs which they had treated for gastro-intestinal conditions could have been 'the victims of skullduggery'.

An emotional Michael Clarke dedicated Australia’s unprecedented fifth World Cup triumph to his former team-mate and friend Phillip Hughes after his side trounced New Zealand in the final at Melbourne. Clarke – who joins Allan Border, Steve Waugh and Ricky Ponting (twice) in the pantheon of Australia’s World Cup-winning captains – scored a classy 74 in 72 balls in his final one-day international before quitting the format to focus on Tests. And with Australia overhauling the New Zealanders’ disappointing total of 183 with seven wickets and nearly 17 overs to spare, he went out in style, watched by an MCG crowd of 93,013 – an official world record for a single day’s cricket. Michael Clarke kisses the World Cup after guiding his team to glory at the Melbourne Cricket Ground . The Australia side celebrate after defeating New Zealand to be crowned Cricket World Cup champions . Clarke celebrates with his wife Kyly and the trophy in the Australian dressing room . Referring to the black armband he wore in memory of Hughes, who died in November after being struck on the neck by a short-pitched delivery during a domestic game in Sydney, Clarke said: ‘As you can see it's got PH on it. I’ll wear it every game I play for Australia. For everyone in Australian cricket it’s been a tough few months. ‘We played this World Cup with 16 players and this is certainly dedicated to our little brother and team-mate Phillip Hughes. Hughesy used to party as good as any of them, so I’ll make sure we drink two at a time – one for Hughesy and one for us. 'Hughes used to party as good as any of them so I'll make sure we drink two (beers) at a time tonight, one for Hughesy and one for us.' Hughes would have approved of the manner in which Australia crushed their trans-Tasman cousins, even if the neutrals were deprived of the climax which the tournament – if it’s honest with itself – so badly needed. From the moment Mitchell Starc bowled New Zealand’s captain and talisman Brendon McCullum in the game’s first over, a sense of inevitability descended on the MCG like the evening shadows. Here were the pre-tournament favourites doling out a painful lesson to a team taking part in their first World Cup final.

The one-way traffic was held up only during a gutsy fourth-wicket stand of 111 between Ross Taylor and Grant Elliott, New Zealand’s hero during their semi-final thriller against South Africa. But James Faulkner, named man of the match for figures of 3 for 36, removed Taylor and the big-hitting Corey Anderson in the first over of the batting powerplay, and wicketkeeper Luke Ronchi fell in the next, to the outstanding Starc. Elliott went on to make 83, but New Zealand’s last seven fell for just 33 in 10 overs. After eight successive games on their smaller, less intimidating, home grounds, they never came to terms with either the occasion or the relentlessness of the Australian attack. The dismissal of Martin Guptill, who had hammered West Indies for an unbeaten 237 from 163 balls in the quarter-finals, summed up their day: trying to dab a gentle off-break from Glenn Maxwell through backward point, he was bowled for 15. Australia lost Aaron Finch to Trent Boult in the second over of the reply, but for New Zealand’s bowlers that was as good as it got. David Warner hit 45 in 46 balls, before Clarke joined Steve Smith – his heir apparent – to add 112. After carting Tim Southee for four successive fours, Clarke chopped on against Matt Henry with nine runs still needed, but Smith was there at the end, a fifth successive half-century in his increasingly irresistible bag. Clarke received a standing ovation as he left the field having been dismissed in his final one-day international . The Australian captain scored 74 from 72 deliveries to anchor his team's chase of 184 . Clarke said: 'We're really proud, it's a wonderful achievement. It's a great thing just to make a World Cup final, but to be able to win in your own back yard in front of your family and friends is extremely special and I guarantee we'll celebrate hard tonight. 'Obviously I'm over the moon. What a tournament. 'The New Zealand team deserve a lot of credit . They're always a tough team to beat it seems in any sporting event. Australia v New Zealand is always an exciting contest and tonight was no different.' 'It's been an honour and a privilege to represent my country in both Test and one-day cricket and Twenty20 cricket. 'The time is right for me to walk away from one-day cricket, but I'll keep playing Test cricket.' Clarke poses with the World Cup trophy after Australia's fourth success in the last five editions . Clarke dedicated the victory to Phillip Hughes, who died after being hit on the side of the head by a bouncer . As Australia prepared to celebrate into the night and beyond, it was left to McCullum to confirm his status as one of the World Cup’s most impressive characters. He said: 'It's been one hell of a ride for us right the way through. I think we've played some outstanding cricket and we ran into an outstanding Australia team tonight who continue to set the way in international cricket and full credit to them, they deserve to be champions. 'Michael Clarke as well, he deserves to bow out a World Cup-winning champion too. They were outstanding in this World Cup and thoroughly deserved to win. 'We were the second-best team on the day and all credit to Australia.' McCullum took time to reflect on the tournament as a whole and said he was 'proud' of his team's performances as they became the first New Zealand side to reach a World Cup final. He added: 'We've forged some memories and friendships that will last forever. New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum admitted his side were second best on the day . 'Obviously we're not able to lift the trophy but the brand of cricket and the entertainment that we've been able to give people throughout our country and throughout the world is something we're immensely proud of. 'We have no regrets and we walk away from this tournament with our heads held high. 'It's the greatest time of your life to be able to represent your country on the international stage with a group of friends and then put your skills against the world's best - it is the greatest time of our lives and that's how we tried to play the game, play with a free spirit and plenty of heart all the way along. 'It's taken us so far in this tournament but we weren't obviously able to get over the final hurdle, but it's something that I'm immensely proud of, all the guys in the team, all the management group and all those that have been part of this team over the last few years and helped build us into what we are. 'We've still got some work to do but we can be very proud of our achievements in this tournament.'

The grandfather preyed on by fraudsters . Derrick Blake was shocked when he received a cold call from somebody who knew details of his past financial investments. The caller used the information to try to scam the grandfather, 75, into handing over his bank details. Mr Blake, who is a carer for his wife Anita, now believes the scammer got his details from B2C. The caller claimed to be from a utility company Mr Blake previously had shares in, but sold seven years ago. They told him he still had 180 shares with them and offered to buy them from him. Luckily, he consulted his son, who immediately realised it was a scam. He said: ‘What is shocking is how they knew all this information about me. How did they know I had those shares? ‘One caller also knew I had arthritis – where did that come from? They know more about my life than I do, it seems.’ Mr Blake, a retired Thames waterman, often receives surveys asking him very specific personal information, such as how much his house is worth, his earnings and investments.

He said he ‘couldn’t get over’ the fact that his private financial details were on a database. Ex-florist who was warned to plan for a funeral . Grandfather-of-five Graham Nealer receives around three cold calls a day – usually asking him to answer personal questions ranging from where he does his shopping to how big his pension pot is. Mr Nealer and his wife, Anita, are woken up early in the morning and are bothered late in the evening with such calls.

On these occasions he has been telephoned by people from China or India claiming to be calling on behalf of Microsoft. ‘They start by saying that my computer needs updating or has errors and then ask me to turn it on and log in,’ he said.

Joe Hart claimed his 100th clean sheet in the Barclays Premier League on Saturday when Manchester City beat West Bromwich Albion 3-0 at the Etihad. He became the 14th goalkeeper to pass the milestone but has some way to go before he can claim the crown, currently held by David James with 169. Yet at the age of 27, Hart has plenty of time left to make his way through the list that includes Peter Schmeichel, David Seaman and Edwin van der Sar. Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart kept his 100th clean sheet against West Bromwich Albion on Saturday . Hart's clean sheet could have gone when Saido Berahino had this chance but the striker hit the crossbar . David James (left) and Petr Cech (right) lead the list of the most Premier League clean sheets . James, current player-manager for Indian Super League club Kerala Blasters, got his 169 from a career that saw him play for Liverpool, Aston Villa, West Ham, Manchester City and Portsmouth. Chelsea's Petr Cech would most likely have passed that total, had he not lost his place as first-choice goalkeeper to 22-year-old Thibaut Courtois under Jose Mourinho. Third-placed Mark Schwarzer left Chelsea for Leicester City on a free transfer in January as cover for the injured Kasper Schmeichel, whose dad Peter sits ninth in the list. Yet Schwarzer is running out of time to close in on Cech with the 42-year-old - the oldest player to feature in the Premier League this season - set to be relegated as Leicester sit bottom. Everton goalkeeper Tim Howard, having conceded five against Dynamo Kiev during their Europa League exit on Thursday, will look to move up the list before the 36-year-old retires. As for Hart, the man that thwarted Barcelona's Lionel Messi in the Champions League last week, he will now chase Thomas Sorensen and Jussi Jaaskelainen on 107 and 108 respectively. He will next be able to do so against Crystal Palace on April 6 after the international break with England. Lionel Messi tries to score past goalkeeper Hart during Barcelona's Champions League win over City .

Bats are often associated with vampires, caves and other dark, creepy or dingy imagery. But this adorable little fruit bat wolfing down a banana is bound to change your perception. Filmed by Denise, a lady who rescues and cares for fruit bats, the video shows a much sweeter side of what is usually considered a rather spooky animal. Hungry fellow: The tiny fruit bat calms down completely when it spies a banana . The bat appears to pull hilarious facial expressions as it tucks into the fruit snack . Munching on the banana, the wide-eyed bat looks extremely excited as it fills its mouth before lifting its head back in satisfaction. Going in for another bite with even more enthusiasm, the bat opens its mouth as wide as it can and stuffs its face once more. Looking at the camera while it finishes its mouthful, the bat takes one last big bite of the banana and uses its pointed tongue to help shovel down the food. Before lifting its head one last time as if completely full and entirely satisfied. According to Storyful, an abundance of rainfall in Brisbane, Australia in recent weeks has resulted in food supplies becoming scarce - as a result, this bat was rescued by a lady called Nanette. At one point the bat is even seen poking its tongue out as it makes sure it has eaten every last morsel . Denise is among the people rescuing the bats from fruit netting during the poor weather. Referencing the video, Denise said the fruit bat was initially a little feisty until it spied the banana. After that he was happy once and began stuffing his face with the food – as is seen in the video. There's no need to be scared of these bats judging by the adorable rescue animal at Denise's shelter . Denise told MailOnline: 'Rain is good news for the coming winter but it's not such good news for hungry bat bellies. 'Although there is a magnificent array of native flowering occurring, rain washes the nectar and pollen out of the blossom and flying-foxes are forced to seek sustenance elsewhere. 'As a result we get an increased number of calls for bats trapped in large aperture fruit tree netting during and after rain events.' Denise added: 'Please net, grow and harvest sustainably. Never use any netting you can poke your finger through and use shadecloth or a similar weave to protect your fruit. Even better still, take what you need and share the rest with our wildlife.'

Bamber Gascoigne, pictured with his wife Christina, has ‘accidentally’ inherited an historic stately home – and it could be worth up to £10million . Bamber Gascoigne has ‘accidentally’ inherited one of Britain’s most historic stately homes – and it could be worth up to £10million. The former University Challenge host has been left West Horsley Place near Leatherhead in Surrey by his aunt and godmother, the Duchess of Roxburghe, who was one of the train-bearers for Queen Elizabeth at the 1937 Coronation of King George VI. The 50-room house, which has its roots in the 11th Century, has been visited by Royalty and was once owned by Sir Walter Raleigh’s son. It is rumoured to have once housed Sir Walter’s head after his beheading for treason in 1618. But despite its illustrious history, West Horsley Place has been at risk of falling into ruin. Gascoigne, 80, who discovered he has been left the property only when he was contacted by his solicitor, has embarked on a mission to save the crumbling estate. He and his wife Christina are sacrificing some of the extraordinary treasures they found inside to finance the expensive repairs. They plan to sell an estimated £2.2million of jewels, paintings, furniture and artefacts through Sotheby’s auction house. Among them is the gown worn by the Duchess at George VI’s Coronation. Gascoigne said he is committed to ensuring the house ‘continues to stand as a monument of its remarkable past’, and hopes to eventually open it to the curious public. ‘It was completely unexpected by me that I would be heir to her estate,’ he said of the Duchess. ‘She had expressed that, given the work required to restore the house, she expected I would sell it.

The house itself was once visited by King Henry VIII for a 35-course banquet. The Duchess, who was born Mary Evelyn Hungerford Crewe-Milnes in 1915, was one of the great beauties of her age and a goddaughter of George V. She died last year.

On the way home from Old Trafford on Monday night, the debate, as it turned out, was the wrong debate. Should Danny Welbeck have been sold to Arsenal last summer? Should he have celebrated his winning goal back in Manchester? Both questions were irrelevant. Welbeck is an honest and talented footballer but he wouldn’t make a difference to Louis van Gaal’s United. He is good without being really good. Danny Welbeck shoots to score the winning goal against Manchester United on Monday night at Old Trafford . A stranded David de Gea (right) looks on as the goalkeeper was beaten by former United player Welbeck . Welbeck celebrated his goal against his former club as Arsenal won the FA Cup tie 2-1 . Welbeck is swamped by his Arsenal team-mates on a night to forget for United supporters . United manager Louis van Gaal (left) and assistant Ryan Giggs watch on during their latest defeat . Welbeck, whose international record is better than his club record, scored a well-taken and well-anticipated goal on Monday and celebrated appropriately. His overall performance, though, was modest. Had he been playing in red rather than in blue and yellow, the result would not have been different. On Tuesday Welbeck said: ‘Manchester United is a club that means so much to me. I’m a fan and it’s hard to knock them out. I’ll always respect the fans. I had a lovely reception and I’m thankful for that.’ But United’s problems under Van Gaal go much deeper than any associated with his decision last August to sell a player he figured — with reason — would have been his fourth-choice centre forward. Van Gaal cut a frustrated figure during the match as he and his team lost their last chance of a trophy . United's (left to right) Marouane Fellaini, Michael Carrick and Wayne Rooney look frustrated on the pitch . Tactical genius? Not quite. Louis van Gaal received 3/10 for his tactics on Monday night, but what about the players? CLICK HERE FOR FULL RATINGS . The most telling moments of this FA Cup tie came in the second half. It was a close game at that point. Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger will have been disappointed his team had conceded an equaliser so carelessly so soon after taking the lead but at half-time he appeared to tell his team to continue in the same vein. Van Gaal, however, sniffed danger, or thought he did. He made two substitutions, neither of them positive, and that seemed indicative of a coach unsure of his players and unconvinced by his original plan. He did a similar thing at Swansea recently and United lost that one, too. Later, with United chasing in the wake of Welbeck’s goal and Angel di Maria’s sending-off, Van Gaal pushed Marouane Fellaini — and, soon after, Chris Smalling — to the top of the United formation and asked them to feed off a diet of long balls pumped from their own half. Angel di Maria is sent off by referee Michael Oliver after the midfielder grabbed the official's shirt . Di Maria applauds the United supporters after being sent off for manhandling the referee during the tie . Radamel Falcao sits on the bench next to Juan Mata as the on-loan striker went unused against Arsenal . Van Gaal issues instructions alongside Giggs but their tactics and substitutions were questionable . With their exit from the FA Cup against Arsenal, Manchester United's attention now rests solely on the Premier League. Yet United haven't beaten a side currently in the top half since their home win against Liverpool in mid December last year. CLICK HERE FOR THE FULL STORY . This is a valid tactic and one that worked at West Ham last month. Fellaini, in particular, can be strangely effective in that role. Nevertheless, while this was going on, United’s Spanish playmaker Juan Mata and their Colombian centre forward Radamel Falcao sat in the dug-out. They were still there when an aimless hoof from Phil Jones rolled out of play for a goal-kick and referee Michael Oliver signalled the end of the game. This, perhaps, is most damning. Van Gaal’s tactical preferences can be discussed all night long. United, whether they knew it or not, hired a pragmatist last summer and it is that side of the manager that the supporters are seeing now. More pertinent is the fact that one of European football’s leading coaches decided — at the sharp end of a home cup tie that he knew his team must win — to put his trust in some Hackney Marshes football rather than ask two players in whom his club has invested millions of pounds to go on and change the game through method and design. It is a strange state of affairs and one that tells us Van Gaal has limited faith in his players. It also points to problems that will greatly affect United’s transfer strategy this summer. Calum Chambers of Arsenal competes for the ball with Adnan Januzaj and Marouane Fellaini . Van Gaal knows he has to look for a new right back, central defender, holding midfielder and forward . Van Gaal's tactics have been questionable this season since he came to United as manager . They’re out of the FA Cup and Manchester United face the hardest run-in of the top-four hopefuls...

Van Gaal knows he needs a right back, central defender, holding midfielder and a centre forward. That is probably about £150million right there. The Dutch coach also knows, however, that he needs to ease out some very big names to make that happen. Van Gaal has to make decisions about Mata, Falcao, Robin van Persie and Rafael da Silva and that is before he addresses the issue of whether less glamorous types such as Jones, Smalling and Jonny Evans are evergoing to mature into footballers good enough to help United back to the top of the Premier League. Van Gaal has spoken many times about his squad lacking balance. What he has been understandably less candid about is the fact that it is just not good enough. There are problems with players such as Di Maria that need time and tactical tuning to address. There is, at least, no doubt about his quality. The cross he delivered for Wayne Rooney to equalise on Monday was evidence of that. Di Maria is not the issue. It is the supporting cast — such as Adnan Januzaj and Ashley Young — that Van Gaal remains unsure about. At Arsenal, Wenger has his critics. His team remain skittish and unpredictable. Nobody can accuse the Arsenal manager of not knowing his own mind, however. There is a methodical consistency about Wenger that, for better or for worse, is clear from the way he chooses and sets up his teams. The same cannot be said about Van Gaal. At the United training ground on Wednesday, the increasingly irritable manager will be looking for something new, trying to find yet another way of turning water into wine before Sunday’s home game with Tottenham. What is unclear though, is whether this constant changing of personnel and tactics tells us more about the limitations of the manager or the players.

<s>[INST] On the way home from Old Trafford on Monday night, the debate, as it turned out, was the wrong debate. Should Danny Welbeck have been sold to Arsenal last summer? Should he have celebrated his winning goal back in Manchester? Both questions were irrelevant. Welbeck is an honest and talented footballer but he wouldn’t make a difference to Louis van Gaal’s United. He is good without being really good. Danny Welbeck shoots to score the winning goal against Manchester United on Monday night at Old Trafford .

Welbeck is swamped by his Arsenal team-mates on a night to forget for United supporters . United manager Louis van Gaal (left) and assistant Ryan Giggs watch on during their latest defeat . Welbeck, whose international record is better than his club record, scored a well-taken and well-anticipated goal on Monday and celebrated appropriately. His overall performance, though, was modest. Had he been playing in red rather than in blue and yellow, the result would not have been different. On Tuesday Welbeck said: ‘Manchester United is a club that means so much to me. I’m a fan and it’s hard to knock them out. I’ll always respect the fans. I had a lovely reception and I’m thankful for that.’ But United’s problems under Van Gaal go much deeper than any associated with his decision last August to sell a player he figured — with reason — would have been his fourth-choice centre forward. Van Gaal cut a frustrated figure during the match as he and his team lost their last chance of a trophy . United's (left to right) Marouane Fellaini, Michael Carrick and Wayne Rooney look frustrated on the pitch . Tactical genius? Not quite. Louis van Gaal received 3/10 for his tactics on Monday night, but what about the players? CLICK HERE FOR FULL RATINGS . The most telling moments of this FA Cup tie came in the second half. It was a close game at that point. Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger will have been disappointed his team had conceded an equaliser so carelessly so soon after taking the lead but at half-time he appeared to tell his team to continue in the same vein. Van Gaal, however, sniffed danger, or thought he did. He made two substitutions, neither of them positive, and that seemed indicative of a coach unsure of his players and unconvinced by his original plan. He did a similar thing at Swansea recently and United lost that one, too. Later, with United chasing in the wake of Welbeck’s goal and Angel di Maria’s sending-off, Van Gaal pushed Marouane Fellaini — and, soon after, Chris Smalling — to the top of the United formation and asked them to feed off a diet of long balls pumped from their own half. Angel di Maria is sent off by referee Michael Oliver after the midfielder grabbed the official's shirt . Di Maria applauds the United supporters after being sent off for manhandling the referee during the tie . Radamel Falcao sits on the bench next to Juan Mata as the on-loan striker went unused against Arsenal . Van Gaal issues instructions alongside Giggs but their tactics and substitutions were questionable . With their exit from the FA Cup against Arsenal, Manchester United's attention now rests solely on the Premier League. Yet United haven't beaten a side currently in the top half since their home win against Liverpool in mid December last year. CLICK HERE FOR THE FULL STORY . This is a valid tactic and one that worked at West Ham last month. Fellaini, in particular, can be strangely effective in that role. Nevertheless, while this was going on, United’s Spanish playmaker Juan Mata and their Colombian centre forward Radamel Falcao sat in the dug-out. They were still there when an aimless hoof from Phil Jones rolled out of play for a goal-kick and referee Michael Oliver signalled the end of the game. This, perhaps, is most damning. Van Gaal’s tactical preferences can be discussed all night long. United, whether they knew it or not, hired a pragmatist last summer and it is that side of the manager that the supporters are seeing now. More pertinent is the fact that one of European football’s leading coaches decided — at the sharp end of a home cup tie that he knew his team must win — to put his trust in some Hackney Marshes football rather than ask two players in whom his club has invested millions of pounds to go on and change the game through method and design. It is a strange state of affairs and one that tells us Van Gaal has limited faith in his players. It also points to problems that will greatly affect United’s transfer strategy this summer.

Van Gaal's tactics have been questionable this season since he came to United as manager . They’re out of the FA Cup and Manchester United face the hardest run-in of the top-four hopefuls...

LIVERPOOL 5TH: Swansea (a) - March 16, Man Utd (h) - March 22, Arsenal (a) - April 4, Newcastle (h) - April 13, Hull (a) - April 18, West Brom (a) - April 25, QPR (h) - May 2, Chelsea (a) - May 9, C Palace (h) - May 16, Stoke (a) - May 24 . TOTTENHAM 6TH: Man Utd (a) - March 15, Leicester (h) - March 21, Burnley (a) - April 5, Aston Villa (h) - April 11, Newcastle (a) - April 19, Southampton (a) - April 25, Man City (h) - May 2, Stoke (a) - May 9, Hull (h) - May 16, Everton (a) - May 24 . SOUTHAMPTON 7TH: Chelsea (a) - March 15, Burnley (h) - March 21, Everton (a) - April 4, Hull (h) - April 11, Stoke (a) - April 18, Tottenham (h) - April 25, Sunderland (a) - May 2, Leicester (a) - May 9, Aston Villa (h) - May 16, Man City (a) - May 24 . Van Gaal knows he needs a right back, central defender, holding midfielder and a centre forward. That is probably about £150million right there. The Dutch coach also knows, however, that he needs to ease out some very big names to make that happen. Van Gaal has to make decisions about Mata, Falcao, Robin van Persie and Rafael da Silva and that is before he addresses the issue of whether less glamorous types such as Jones, Smalling and Jonny Evans are evergoing to mature into footballers good enough to help United back to the top of the Premier League. Van Gaal has spoken many times about his squad lacking balance. What he has been understandably less candid about is the fact that it is just not good enough. There are problems with players such as Di Maria that need time and tactical tuning to address. There is, at least, no doubt about his quality. The cross he delivered for Wayne Rooney to equalise on Monday was evidence of that. Di Maria is not the issue. It is the supporting cast — such as Adnan Januzaj and Ashley Young — that Van Gaal remains unsure about. At Arsenal, Wenger has his critics. His team remain skittish and unpredictable. Nobody can accuse the Arsenal manager of not knowing his own mind, however. There is a methodical consistency about Wenger that, for better or for worse, is clear from the way he chooses and sets up his teams. The same cannot be said about Van Gaal. At the United training ground on Wednesday, the increasingly irritable manager will be looking for something new, trying to find yet another way of turning water into wine before Sunday’s home game with Tottenham. What is unclear though, is whether this constant changing of personnel and tactics tells us more about the limitations of the manager or the players.

A £4million house in one of the country's wealthiest areas is to be demolished - to make way for three properties worth three times as much. Sandbanks in Poole, Dorset, has long been one of the most exclusive addresses in Britain with the super rich fighting over coveted space on its water's edge. With wealthy footballers and businessmen vying for a spot on the small peninsula, house hunters have been known to snap up dated, old-fashioned properties to knock down and rebuild. The 1980s house is no different, with developers keen to make the most of its 3.5 acre plot. The property in Sandbanks in Poole, Dorset, is to be demolished and replaced with three other modern houses worth a combined £12million . The property, which lies in one of the country's most exclusive postcodes, no longer has 'architectural merit' after lying derelict for so long . The house's empty indoor swimming pool is filled with debris and leaves. Each of the new houses will have its own pool and four bedrooms . Local groups expressed no desire to maintain the original property which, if left untouched any longer, would have become entirely ruined . Debris and scattered roof tiles now fill the house's empty swimming pool. The house was bought for £4million by property developers . The property previously boasted manicured lawns and an impressive fountain in the centre of its driveway. It is pictured before workers began tearing it down . Work has already begun in tearing down the house which has five bedrooms, four bathrooms, four reception rooms and an indoor swimming pool. Having been left derelict for years it is now filled with rubble and debris and no longer has 'architectural merit', said the estate agents involved in its sale. Adrian Dunford, of Tailor Made Estate Agents, said: 'The large detached property that is there now has got no architectural merit. It isn’t a particularly pretty property at all and the way its sits on the plot isn’t ideal. 'There has been no appetite among local conservation groups such as the Sandbanks Association for it to be given listed status.' The 3.5 acre plot borders a nature reserve and will be divided up to make way for the three contemporary homes worth  £4.8m, £4m and £3.25m. Gardeners will uproot 50 trees as part of the plan, but plant 40 saplings in their place. All of the new flat-roofed properties will have four bedrooms and two will be split over three levels and have indoor swimming pools. Its current layout has been a waste of space, said developers who are eager to capitalise on its vast gardens. 'It is almost a four acre site and there is no reason to have just one house on it,' added Mr Dunford. 'Couples in this area don’t require a house of 30,000 square foot where they will be in separate parts of it most of the time and only see each other at dinner. 'One of the main attractions of this area is the outdoor lifestyle it offers and couples prefer to do that together.

The house was awkwardly positioned on the land, said developers, with its previous lay out not making the most of its space . Among developers's plans is to work on the property's vast grounds to make the most of its green space. Fifty trees will be felled as part of the project with gardeners planting 40 saplings in their place . The property has sweeping views of the harbour on one side and a golf course on the other. It is among around 70 on the peninsula where some Britain's most coveted homes lie . 'We expect these properties to attract couples whose children have grown up and left home.' Nick Blakemore, a director of developers Excellare, said: 'The house that is there is not how it was in its heyday and has become quite run down. 'It is not the style of house that people are looking for now. 'It was spread out across the width of the site, you could probably accommodate 10 houses on it if you wanted but three makes much better use of the space. 'The site borders a nature reserve on one side and a golf course and looks down on the harbour. 'The approach we have taken is to very much work within the environment and not just create a concrete jungle.' Over the last two decades Sandbanks has become a millionaire’s playground with dozens of luxury harbour-front homes worth as much as £12m springing up. The peninsula is home to former Premier League football manager Harry Redknapp, West Bromich Albion boss Tony Pulis, SKY TV soccer pundit Graeme Souness and Maxim Demin, the Russian millionaire owner of Championship club AFC Bournemouth. Last year two luxury homes squeezed onto a plot meant for one went up for sale on Sandbanks for £13million - three times the value of the former property. In 2013 a property sold for the equivalent of £1,275 per square foot, a record for the area.

Ed Miliband will 'pick your pocket on a frequent basis' because he won't cut benefit spending, David Cameron claimed today. The Prime Minister said he 'made no apology' for claims that Labour would increase taxes on working families by more than £3,000 over the next five years – despite the Tory estimate being criticised by economists and dismissed as 'made up' by Labour. But Mr Cameron refused to say how he would deliver £12billion in savings from the welfare budget which he has claimed are needed to avoid tax rises. David Cameron this morning accused Labour of planning to 'pick you pocket' if they are elected in May . On the first full day of campaigning, the PM said Labour was planning to hike taxes on businesses on families to reduce the deficit instead of making savings from government spending. It came as Labour risked a new clash with business by pledging to reverse the Government's cut in corporation tax just weeks after it is due to come into effect. Shadow chancellor Ed Balls said the move would enable them to throw a lifeline to smaller firms - cutting business rates on 1.5 million small firms - rather than the big companies which benefit from the reduction in corporation tax. But the Conservatives warned that it could lead to the loss of almost 100,000 jobs, putting economic security at risk, 'for the sake of making a political point'. Mr Cameron meanwhile promised that the Conservatives would help business create another two million jobs over the course of the next parliament if they are returned to Downing Street. The PM said the election was 'a choice about whether you want a government that will find savings and not pick your pocket or with Labour a government that will pick your pocket, I think, on a pretty frequent basis.' The Institute for Fiscal Studies yesterday challenged Mr Cameron's claim of a £3,000 tax hike under Labour, saying the party's plans did not suggest a rise of anything like that scale and that Conservative plans implied a larger overall package of spending cuts or tax rises. Ed Miliband has accused the Tories of using 'made up figures' Asked about the £3,000 figure, the Prime Minister told the BBC: 'I think it's a totally fair assumption. If Labour want to come forward now and change the assumptions and set out their own assumptions, then they can. 'But in the meantime, the best calculation available is the one that we have made.' Mr Cameron was repeatedly pressed over Tory plans to save £12 billion from the welfare budget, as part of an overall £30 billion cuts package. Asked whether he could rule out achieving some of the savings from cuts in disability benefits, he told the BBC that the coalition had just introduced a new Personal Independence Payment, adding: 'We haven't created that benefit in order to undermine it. We want to enhance it and safeguard it.' He added: 'Politics is about choices and my choice - and I think the British people's choice - is to find savings in welfare, rather than to put up people's taxes.' Meanwhile, Mr Balls announced that the first budget of a Labour government will cut business rates for 1.5 million small companies – worth an average of £400 – to be followed by a freeze the following year. Labour say that 17 small firms would benefit from the cut for every one large business helped by the reduction in corporation tax – first announced in Chancellor George Osborne's 2013 Budget – which takes effect next month. It argues the coalition spent £7 billion over the last parliament cutting the main rate of corporation tax to the benefit of larger firms while revenues from business rates rose by £3 billion, at an average cost to firms of £1,500-a-year. Mr Balls will say: 'Unleashing the potential of smaller businesses to grow, create more good jobs and raise living standards is a vital part of Labour's better plan. 'This is part of our plan to deliver a simpler and fairer tax system for small businesses. This is the right priority when money is tight. And it will mean that the tax burden on small businesses will be lower with Labour than under the Tories.' Nick Clegg this morning demanded the Tories come clean over how they will cut £12billion from the welfare budget . However the move risks re-opening the rift with some big business leaders who have strongly criticised Labour's spending plans. Tory Treasury minister David Gauke said that abandoning the cut in corporation tax would jeopardise economic security. He said: 'This would be the first time corporation tax has risen in over 40 years and Labour's plans could cost 96,400 jobs - it would put people's economic security at risk. 'The Conservative Party is helping businesses small and large as part of our long-term economic plan - we don't divide them up for the sake of making a political point.' Mr Cameron told Sky News's Sunrise that Labour's plan to raise corporation tax was 'a crazy thing to do when the economy is growing'. Asked for details of how the Tories' £12 billion benefit cuts would be delivered, Mr Cameron told ITV1's Good Morning Britain: 'Effectively what we are saying is that we need to save £1 out of every £100 that the Government spends in the next two years. We've done that in the last five years. We need to do it for two more. 'I think the right choice is to try to find that saving of £1 in every £100, rather than putting up people's taxes or adding to our borrowing. 'Where we've identified savings, we've been very clear about them. For instance, we've said that we'll cut the welfare cap - the amount of money that any family can get in welfare - from £26,000 to £23,000.' Mr Cameron said his party was setting out a 'very positive vision for Britain' with a pledge to help business create two million new jobs, adding: 'I can't think of anything more positive than that.'
Mr Cameron said he 'made no apology' for claims Labour would hike taxes . The Tories were criticised yesterday over claims taxes would rise £3,000 . But the PM refused to say how he would deliver the £12bn from welfare .

It came as Labour risked a new clash with business by pledging to reverse the Government's cut in corporation tax just weeks after it is due to come into effect. Shadow chancellor Ed Balls said the move would enable them to throw a lifeline to smaller firms - cutting business rates on 1.5 million small firms - rather than the big companies which benefit from the reduction in corporation tax. But the Conservatives warned that it could lead to the loss of almost 100,000 jobs, putting economic security at risk, 'for the sake of making a political point'. Mr Cameron meanwhile promised that the Conservatives would help business create another two million jobs over the course of the next parliament if they are returned to Downing Street. The PM said the election was 'a choice about whether you want a government that will find savings and not pick your pocket or with Labour a government that will pick your pocket, I think, on a pretty frequent basis.' The Institute for Fiscal Studies yesterday challenged Mr Cameron's claim of a £3,000 tax hike under Labour, saying the party's plans did not suggest a rise of anything like that scale and that Conservative plans implied a larger overall package of spending cuts or tax rises. Ed Miliband has accused the Tories of using 'made up figures' Asked about the £3,000 figure, the Prime Minister told the BBC: 'I think it's a totally fair assumption. If Labour want to come forward now and change the assumptions and set out their own assumptions, then they can. 'But in the meantime, the best calculation available is the one that we have made.' Mr Cameron was repeatedly pressed over Tory plans to save £12 billion from the welfare budget, as part of an overall £30 billion cuts package. Asked whether he could rule out achieving some of the savings from cuts in disability benefits, he told the BBC that the coalition had just introduced a new Personal Independence Payment, adding: 'We haven't created that benefit in order to undermine it. We want to enhance it and safeguard it.' He added: 'Politics is about choices and my choice - and I think the British people's choice - is to find savings in welfare, rather than to put up people's taxes.' Meanwhile, Mr Balls announced that the first budget of a Labour government will cut business rates for 1.5 million small companies – worth an average of £400 – to be followed by a freeze the following year. Labour say that 17 small firms would benefit from the cut for every one large business helped by the reduction in corporation tax – first announced in Chancellor George Osborne's 2013 Budget – which takes effect next month. It argues the coalition spent £7 billion over the last parliament cutting the main rate of corporation tax to the benefit of larger firms while revenues from business rates rose by £3 billion, at an average cost to firms of £1,500-a-year. Mr Balls will say: 'Unleashing the potential of smaller businesses to grow, create more good jobs and raise living standards is a vital part of Labour's better plan. 'This is part of our plan to deliver a simpler and fairer tax system for small businesses. This is the right priority when money is tight. And it will mean that the tax burden on small businesses will be lower with Labour than under the Tories.' Nick Clegg this morning demanded the Tories come clean over how they will cut £12billion from the welfare budget . However the move risks re-opening the rift with some big business leaders who have strongly criticised Labour's spending plans. Tory Treasury minister David Gauke said that abandoning the cut in corporation tax would jeopardise economic security. He said: 'This would be the first time corporation tax has risen in over 40 years and Labour's plans could cost 96,400 jobs - it would put people's economic security at risk. 'The Conservative Party is helping businesses small and large as part of our long-term economic plan - we don't divide them up for the sake of making a political point.' Mr Cameron told Sky News's Sunrise that Labour's plan to raise corporation tax was 'a crazy thing to do when the economy is growing'. Asked for details of how the Tories' £12 billion benefit cuts would be delivered, Mr Cameron told ITV1's Good Morning Britain: 'Effectively what we are saying is that we need to save £1 out of every £100 that the Government spends in the next two years. We've done that in the last five years. We need to do it for two more. 'I think the right choice is to try to find that saving of £1 in every £100, rather than putting up people's taxes or adding to our borrowing. 'Where we've identified savings, we've been very clear about them. For instance, we've said that we'll cut the welfare cap - the amount of money that any family can get in welfare - from £26,000 to £23,000.' Mr Cameron said his party was setting out a 'very positive vision for Britain' with a pledge to help business create two million new jobs, adding: 'I can't think of anything more positive than that.' [/INST] Mr Cameron said he 'made no apology' for claims Labour would hike taxes . The Tories were criticised yesterday over claims taxes would rise £3,000 . But the PM refused to say how he would deliver the £12bn from welfare . </s>
Former Scotland football captain Colin Hendry, pictured arriving at Blackpool Magistrates, has admitted drink driving . Ex-Scotland football captain Colin Hendry is preparing to fight a ban from the roads after blaming his drink driving on a 'rare' metabolism. The 49-year old former Rangers and Blackburn Rovers defender was arrested last month after police stopped him near his home in Lytham, Lancashire in the early hours of February 21. Officers had claimed Hendry who was nicknamed 'Braveheart' when he captain of Scotland was almost twice the limit after failing a breathalyser test. But today, widowed father of four Hendry disputed the reading and asked Blackpool Magistrates to have the case adjourned so his metabolism could be tested. The court heard that Hendry admitted drinking before driving his blue Ford Focus, but argued the amount of alcohol he drank over a certain period of time should not have put him over the limit. His lawyer Glyn Lewis - who has previously represented a string of celebrities over his expertise in exploiting motoring legal loopholes - said: 'Usually we go to sentence and it is inevitable he would have to be disqualified because he has entered a guilty plea because he accepts the facts. 'But the instructions I have over the amount of alcohol consumed and the time period, when you do the calculations they don't correlate with the figure he has given. 'There are two possibilities - one is because of the fact that he has got some alcohol in his system he is unaware of and the other is quite rare is we have somebody whose metabolism is such they provide a specimen of breath which does not correlate with the reading of blood. 'We have had a forensic scientist give us an indication that the figures provided by the defendant don't correlate with the figures given by the sample. 'We accept the prosecution's case - the police followed him, he wasn't driving erratically, nothing unusual about that, he accepts that - the question is why is this alcohol reading being given that is being investigated. 'We can establish what he consumed and when it was because there are receipts. 'Mr Hendry might have to be tested for his metabolism in the lab with a reconstruction of the whole evening's events. The ratio between breath and blood is not the same for everyone. 'If our investigations don't have foundation in science we would bring it back to court and have it dealt with. Mr Hendry wants the matter to be dealt with as quickly as possible.' He was stopped by police and arrested near his home in Lytham, Lancashire in the early hours of February 21, and was found to be driving his blue Ford Focus while almost double the legal alcohol limit (stock picture) The court agreed to adjourn for a 'special reasons' hearing in which Hendry will call evidence from a forensic service scientist and two civilian witnesses who were with him on the night of the incident. Hendry - who arrived for the hearing in sunglasses and a grey suit - had 63 microgrammes of alcohol in 100 millilitres of breath- the legal limit is 35mg. Initial forensic tests conducted on behalf of Hendry had shown the figures did not correlate and further investigation was needed, said Mr Lewis. The solicitor added that the later sentencing bench could have the option not to disqualify Hendry from driving but the conviction would stand regardless. Hendry, was granted unconditional bail until April 22 when the case will be heard in full before sentencing. The 49-year old former Rangers and Blackburn Rovers defender has blamed his 'quite rare' metabolism for being over the limit . The ex-Premier League footballer had a long playing career, captaining his country in the 1998 World Cup and appearing for a series of clubs including Blackburn Rovers, Manchester City, Bolton Wanderers and Glasgow Rangers. Last week police confirmed he had been given a warning amid claims he had pestering former girlfriend Sarah Kinder a beautician he had been dating after the death of his wife Denise in 2009 following botched cosmetic surgery. Miss Kinder, 40, claimed he looked in her window and sent her unwanted texts and social media messages after their four-year relationship ended late last year. It was also claimed the former footballer repeatedly drove past her home. The warning does not count as a criminal record but runs for 12 months to deter an individual from future conduct causing distress. TV pundit Hendry had previously built up debts of £2.2million which led to him being made temporarily bankrupt by a betting firm in 2010 and losing his mansion home.

A Delta flight went off the runway at LaGuardia Airport in New York City on Thursday morning, stopping just short of Flushing Bay. FDNY rushed to the scene as Delta Flight 1086, an MD-88 arriving from Atlanta, skidded off runway 13, was leaking fuel and had a broken wing after striking a fence during blizzard conditions. The airport initially reported that the plane had caught fire, though there were no visible signs from the scene. The plane was immediately evacuated, and all 127 passengers and five crew members were safely removed within 30 minutes of the plane's landing, walking out on the broken wing and going down a slide. LaGuardia was shut down soon after the incident as the plane was leaking 300 gallons of fuel at a rate of a gallon a minute, with all incoming flights being diverted and outgoing flights being grounded. The fuel leak was quickly contained. Scroll down for videos . Scene: A Delta flight slid off the runway at LaGuardia Airport in New York City on Thursday morning .

CNN reports that only minor injuries had been sustained, with the FDNY saying while numerous individuals were being treated only three were transported to a hospital. It has been reported that 24 people were injured in total. The transcript from the tower shows that the flight was given the all clear to land on the runway and told that the breaking action had been reported as 'good.' Once the plane hit the runway it did not respond to the tower, and as soon as the air traffic controllers realized what happened they immediately announced the airport was closed. 'Customers deplaned via aircraft slides and have moved to the terminal on buses,' Delta said in a statement. 'Our priority is ensuring our customers and crew members are safe. Delta will work with all authorities and stakeholders to look into what happened in this incident.' The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey reported that two planes that landed just before the Delta flight reported good breaking on the runway, and that the plane skid roughly 5,000 feet down the runway. 'I think the pilot did everything he could to slow the aircraft down,' said Port Authority head Patrick J. Foye during a news conference. I'm not even sure what went through my mind because you're not even sure what's happening,' said passenger Mark Clafter. 'And then it wasn't until the plane came to a stop that all of the sudden you think, 'Holy cow! We just skidded off the runway."' He added that through it all,, 'no one was screaming, no one was freaking out, and when we came to a dead stop people were actually really calm.' He said that when they stopped all power went out and the pilot had no way of speaking to the passengers, but even then no one panicked.

New York Giants tight end Larry Donnell was also on the plane and shared a photo and video on Instagram as he evacuated on the runway, joking; 'Look at this sh*t! Knew I shoulda stayed my ass at home.' He later released a statement saying; 'I feel fine physically and hopefully all the other passengers did not have any significant injuries We were all shocked and alarmed when the plane started to skid, but most importantly, as far as I know, all of the passengers and flight crew were able to exit the plane safely.' A woman named Vanessa also shared a photo as she left the plane, writing; '#survive #crashlanding #noinjuries.' Now some are questioning whether the airport should have even been open during these snowy and icy conditions.

<s>[INST] A Delta flight went off the runway at LaGuardia Airport in New York City on Thursday morning, stopping just short of Flushing Bay. FDNY rushed to the scene as Delta Flight 1086, an MD-88 arriving from Atlanta, skidded off runway 13, was leaking fuel and had a broken wing after striking a fence during blizzard conditions. The airport initially reported that the plane had caught fire, though there were no visible signs from the scene. The plane was immediately evacuated, and all 127 passengers and five crew members were safely removed within 30 minutes of the plane's landing, walking out on the broken wing and going down a slide. LaGuardia was shut down soon after the incident as the plane was leaking 300 gallons of fuel at a rate of a gallon a minute, with all incoming flights being diverted and outgoing flights being grounded. The fuel leak was quickly contained. Scroll down for videos . Scene: A Delta flight slid off the runway at LaGuardia Airport in New York City on Thursday morning .

CNN reports that only minor injuries had been sustained, with the FDNY saying while numerous individuals were being treated only three were transported to a hospital. It has been reported that 24 people were injured in total. The transcript from the tower shows that the flight was given the all clear to land on the runway and told that the breaking action had been reported as 'good.' Once the plane hit the runway it did not respond to the tower, and as soon as the air traffic controllers realized what happened they immediately announced the airport was closed. 'Customers deplaned via aircraft slides and have moved to the terminal on buses,' Delta said in a statement. 'Our priority is ensuring our customers and crew members are safe. Delta will work with all authorities and stakeholders to look into what happened in this incident.' The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey reported that two planes that landed just before the Delta flight reported good breaking on the runway, and that the plane skid roughly 5,000 feet down the runway. 'I think the pilot did everything he could to slow the aircraft down,' said Port Authority head Patrick J. Foye during a news conference. I'm not even sure what went through my mind because you're not even sure what's happening,' said passenger Mark Clafter. 'And then it wasn't until the plane came to a stop that all of the sudden you think, 'Holy cow! We just skidded off the runway."' He added that through it all,, 'no one was screaming, no one was freaking out, and when we came to a dead stop people were actually really calm.' He said that when they stopped all power went out and the pilot had no way of speaking to the passengers, but even then no one panicked.

Everyone is safe. Thank you for your prayers. God is good.' New York Giants tight end Larry Donnell was also on the plane and shared a photo and video on Instagram as he evacuated on the runway, joking; 'Look at this sh*t! Knew I shoulda stayed my ass at home.' He later released a statement saying; 'I feel fine physically and hopefully all the other passengers did not have any significant injuries We were all shocked and alarmed when the plane started to skid, but most importantly, as far as I know, all of the passengers and flight crew were able to exit the plane safely.' A woman named Vanessa also shared a photo as she left the plane, writing; '#survive #crashlanding #noinjuries.' Now some are questioning whether the airport should have even been open during these snowy and icy conditions.

(CNN)After spending much of her 2008 campaign seemingly running away from the fact that she is a woman, Hillary Clinton is showing signs that 2016 is going to be a different story. It seems that Hillary has found her outer woman, which is to say, she's found the person that she wants to present on the campaign trail, and that person is resolutely female. This time she seems to have decided to fully embrace her womanhood as an asset in her quest for the White House and to trust that the voters will do the same. Of course, Hillary hasn't officially announced that she will be running for president -- and Universal Studios has not officially announced that there will be a sequel to the blockbuster "50 Shades of Grey." But it's hard to imagine 2016 happening without both of those things, seeing as how they both have such excellent prospects of success. Hillary recently spoke at a Silicon Valley conference for women in the tech field with the theme of "Lead On." That lent itself nicely to the professional goals of the members of the audience as well as to Hillary's own leadership goals. She spoke of the dearth of women not only in the tech field, but in the ranks of Fortune 500 CEO's. In fact, one recent diversity study found that the major S&P 1500 company boards had more men with the name John, Robert, William, or James on them than women of any name combined. Left unsaid in her speech was any reference to the complete lack of a female occupant of the Oval Office thus far, but the thought could not have been far from anyone's mind, let alone Hillary's. Clinton was comfortable talking at length about her own experiences being pregnant and giving birth while working as a partner in a law firm, and using that as a launching pad to discuss the importance of women in the workforce both here and around the world. And from there she highlighted her own work on behalf of the women of the world as secretary of state. She segued into the discussion of the plight of working middle-class families that will be so central to the 2016 race, and the centrality of women's economic issues to those struggles of the middle-class. From there it was a natural progression to talking about 21st century families and the importance of things such as paid leave. And all of that dovetailed perfectly into closing remarks about the future that revolved naturally around the birth in September of Clinton's first grandchild, Charlotte Clinton Mezvinsky. That brought up Hillary's new role as a grandmother, and the perspective it has given her on the future and what needs to be done to guarantee that it's the best possible future. The Silicon Valley address could serve as a template for how Clinton intends to approach her career goals from the vantage point of being a woman seeking her own place in the workforce. In the coming weeks, which serendipitously happen to be part of Women's History Month, Hillary's speaking schedule is heavy with events and gatherings that center around women. If she's not running for president, then she could be gearing up to get a talk show on the Lifetime network. All of which stands in stark contrast to Hillary's last presidential campaign. In 2008, she seemed to think that she had to reassure voters that a woman could be president, primarily by not accentuating the fact that she was a woman. This time around, there seems to be a shared assumption that, of course, a woman would make an excellent president, in part simply by virtue of being a woman. In that previous campaign, Hillary ran as the most experienced candidate, primarily to draw a distinction between herself and her relatively less experienced challenger, Barack Obama. But now, almost eight years later, Clinton can let her experience speak for itself. She has more of it -- almost too much, from one perspective: She'll be 69 by the time the 2016 election takes place. So this time instead of highlighting her experience, she's highlighting the experiences she has in common with the women, mothers and grandmothers out there. Of course, Hillary's message will have to resonate beyond female voters. Fortunately, the dynamics of the 21st century economy and the place of the family within it lend themselves to a family-friendly feminism. We live in a society where women are necessary breadwinners whose income is counted upon for families to make it. Gender pay equality and supportive work environments benefit spouses, children, extended families and entire communities. Today, feminism, family and economic issues intertwine like never before. Hillary's stressing of the importance of women's workplace issues both to the family and to the struggles of the middle-class puts the Republicans on the defensive as they try to co-opt middle-class economic issues. Potential GOP presidential candidates are already trying to position themselves to steal the thunder of the Democratic nominee when it comes to issues of wage inequality and middle-class stagnation. But how exactly do they propose to reinvigorate a middle-class that is overwhelmingly composed of families with two wage-earners if they don't fight for women's workplace issues? For instance, child care may be thought of as a woman's issue, but it's really a family issue, virtually by definition, and an economic issue on top of that. Among topics that are sometimes seen as more traditional women's issues such as family planning, access to birth control and the right to choose, Hillary has the advantage in that she can make her stance clear, based on her life experiences as a woman. It's the Republicans with extremist views on these issues who have to dance around their real beliefs and avoid making outrageous and absurd statements such as embarrassing pronouncements about rape and pregnancy. If Hillary seems more comfortable running as a woman, it's partly because society at large seems more comfortable with a populist-tinged feminism than it was in 2008. Patricia Arquette's Oscar night speech in support of equal pay for women -- although predictably dismissed by right-wing media such as Fox News -- was enthusiastically received by the public in general. In fact, far from being thought radical, Arquette's statements backstage were thoroughly deconstructed by the left for not being progressively correct enough. Women have been steadily making strides in the years since Hillary's 2008 campaign, and as they did, they smoothed the way for one of their own to run for the highest office in the land without having to play down her gender. Hillary is now wisely embracing her gender as a way of capturing the same "hope and change" historical quality of Obama's presidency. Voters always want change, and Hillary Clinton has been a constant on the political stage for decades now. She's certainly no stranger to Washington, or to the West Wing of the White House. But electing her president would still represent massive change on a fundamental level. Hillary Clinton wants 2016 to be the Year of the Woman. And she wants to be The Woman.
