(CNN)Well, I'll be the first to admit, I got caught off guard on this one. If indeed the assessment of the cockpit voice recording of Germanwings Flight 9525's final moments is an accurate one, it is shocking. It is inconceivable to me that a fellow pilot would use an airplane for his demise and the demise of his passengers. It is my hope that there is more to this uncanny, horrific tragedy than just an extraordinary suicide event. Although a report of normal breathing from the co-pilot in the moments before the crash indicates that he was not incapacitated, how can one really tell? A farfetched idea, but could he have suffered a fit of schizophrenia never diagnosed, or suffered some other mental disorder, perhaps brought on by medication? I know, it's not likely. As an airline pilot, I'm taking this incident personally. Why? A pilot betrayed the public trust. With all the other fears -- terrorism, disappearances of planes, aircraft malfunctions -- how do I reassure my passengers that they should not add medical illness, mental or otherwise, of the pilot to the list? For the moment, I'll have to believe that my customers are intelligent enough to realize that the Germanwings co-pilot is an anomaly. Sure, as with any profession, pilots have isolated cases of stress-related troubles. But we have mechanisms to deal with such problems. One mechanism is very simple: Don't fly. It is incumbent upon us to determine our own fitness for duty. As a matter of fact, on every trip, I have to confirm that status before I electronically sign the flight plan. Whether it's as simple as suffering from the common cold or suffering from the distraction of a nasty divorce, airline pilots can just say "no" to flying. As part of the hiring process, we completed a psychological evaluation. With my airline, one part of the evaluation involved a written test that asked obscure questions in different ways. Another part of the test involved pilots listening to an air traffic control recording made during the angst of a thunderstorm event while at the same time completing a battery of math and shape-orientation problems. We were then asked questions specific to the conversations between the air traffic controllers and pilots we'd heard in the recording. The test was a measure of our multitasking abilities and our abilities to deal with stress. In addition, the airline's doctor conducted an individual mental evaluation. Airline pilots in the United States are required by the Federal Aviation Administration to take a medical examination once every six months. The examination is mostly physical, but the doctor is expected to ask some basic mental health questions, most of them about depression or alcohol consumption. In addition to requiring pilots to indicate any prior health issues during the previous six months, the application for the exam also compels us to self-disclose the use of medications, specifically for the treatment of depression. If we have consulted a therapist, that also has to be disclosed. Yes, all bets are off if we deceive the system by hiding things from it, but by every indication, this rarely occurs. The consequence for deception is having your FAA pilot's license suspended. When it comes to experiencing stress, airline pilots are no different than anyone else. But we tend to deal with stress internally. I have been trained as a peer support volunteer in critical-incident stress management, a joint program between the pilots union and my airline uses as a debriefing method to talk pilots through any serious event experienced in flight. The idea is to mitigate any post-traumatic stress associated with such an event, and occasionally the process would uncover personal issues that would be referred to other support providers, like mental health professionals. I have found that my colleagues demonstrate an above-average ability to compartmentalize their problems and not let personal issues affect their job performance ... most of the time, of course. If personal issues invade the cockpit, mechanisms are in place to assist. What mechanisms? At my airline, both the company and the pilot's union work in unison. Programs to assist a pilot experiencing problems are just a phone call away. And if there is concern about a colleague's mental health, we can contact one of these programs on the other pilot's behalf, anonymously if necessary. In some circumstances a pilot can be removed from duty. At every recurrent training period, the curriculum includes a presentation reminding us of these mechanisms. No system is perfect. Yes, as with all human systems, somebody will fall through the cracks. Even a good psychiatrist can miss an impending suicide. Redesigning an airplane cockpit based on the infinitesimal chance that another Germanwings co-pilot is out there seems like an overreaction. If passengers require reassurance of my sanity, then it would be best to more actively promote the mechanisms already in place. We can start with education. As I fly back from London today, I am certain that the Gulf War Air Force hero beside me, who dealt with enemy missiles and raising a family, will do nothing other than an exemplary job. I am honored to call him my co-pilot.

Les Abend: Fliers should know that Germanwings crash is anomaly; airlines have procedures for vetting pilots' fitness . He says psych evaluations, medical exams, peer-oversight protocols keep such disasters rare .

Australian teen suicide bomber Jake Bilardi was sitting on the couch of his Melbourne home, across from one of his brothers, when he panicked. The future jihadist, then 16-years-old, started shaking with anxiety, his heart pounding, trying to avoid eye contact with his sibling, 'too scared to move'. 'I had begun to believe he was a complete stranger out to kill me... I just looked around the room, wondering if there were hidden cameras some where (sic),' he purportedly writes in an online post. 'I realised what was happening after about 10 minutes however I didn't sleep that night because I was really scared for hours after.' A series of questions posted to Yahoo! Answers, seen by Daily Mail Australia and purportedly belonging to Bilardi, provide a troubling insight into the warped mind of the troubled young Melbourne man, who this week reportedly blew himself up in Ramadi, Iraq, 110km west of Baghdad. In this post titled 'I don't feel like this is my home?' two years ago, 'Jake' asked Yahoo! users what could be wrong with him as he had never had an episode 'as serious as this'. Jake Bilardi in a school photo from Year 10 (left) - the year he converted to Islam, according to school friends - and in Year 11 (right) before dropping out of school . 'My biggest problem is that it's a bad photo of me, hahaha': The photograph of Melbourne teen Jake Bilardi which was first released to show his allegiance to Islamic State . Extract: This one of 60 questions an account believed to belong to Jake Bilardi posted on Yahoo! Answers . On Thursday, an image of Bilardi sitting in front of an Islamic State flag was posted to Twitter . He said 'since I was about 11 or 12 years old I have felt sometimes like my home wasn't really my home and that it was all a set up. 'I am now 16 years old and it has gotten to the point where I it feels like I am on a movie set, I live with two older siblings and I sometimes even start to question who they are and believe that they are plotting to kill me'. Users advised he see a psychiatrist, or a doctor. Jake asked 60 questions on the service, sometimes seeking advice on serious matters such as this one. Sometimes they are the studious, perhaps school-related questions of an intelligent teenager, for instance asking whether Russia is a part of Asia or Europe. At other times, he shows typical teenage insecurity. Jake asked Yahoo! users if 'appearance is important in journalism' and said he had unsuccessfully applied for a job at one of his local newspapers. 'I am looking for a job in journalism and I was wondering if good looks are important. I will admit now that I am ugly although I really want to do journalism and was wondering if there is any importance toward appearance in order to be employed,' he said. In interviews with six of his stunned former classmates at Craigieburn Secondary College on Thursday, Daily Mail Australia was told the former maths whiz and founder of a children's soccer charity had harboured ambitions of becoming a political journalist. Other questions reveal his increasingly devout pursuit of the Islamic and parts of his ultimately successful plan to join the fighting in the Middle East. One of 60 Yahoo! Answers questions asked by an account believed to belong to Jake Bilardi, the Australian jihadist who purportedly blew himself up on Wednesday . Charity founder: Bilardi co-founded the Soccer For Hope Organisation (SHO) which removes youths from the streets of Uganda and uses soccer as a tool to improve their lives . Suicide bomber: ISIS leaked a photograph of 18-year-old Australian Jake Bilardi (pictured) in the vehicle he allegedly blew himself up while driving it . Over the years, he sought advice on how to correctly follow his Islamic faith, requesting help on how he could pray at school and at his job, at a Safeway supermarket. Around a year ago, he even asked if he could still celebrate Christmas as a Muslim. 'Is it alright for me to continue taking part because some people in my family still aren't happy with my decision and I have been trying to make things as normal as possible, so it would be really awkward and weird if I wasn't taking part,' he asked. His final four questions to the online community betray his decision to leave the country, asking about Australian immigration processes, including his concerns about how he had made a mistake on his application for an Australian passport ten months ago. Seven months ago, he asked about the 'outgoing passenger cards' that Australians generally sign at the airport. 'I need an outgoing passenger card to leave Australia and I don't know where I can get one. 'People have told me I can get it at the check-in counters but I am going to check in online so I can avoid the lines. 'Does anyone know where I can get one?' The Federal Government is investigating the reports of Bilardi's suicide mission. A third photo published on social media by IS, no doubt specifically chosen for Bilardi's westernised appearance in it, showed the teen wearing a blue Chelsea Football Club shirt . A Craigieburn schoolmate was shocked because Bilali 'really kept to himself and didn't cause trouble' The bullying tactic sees a group of people slap their victim and film it on a camera phone before uploading it online in order to humiliate them . 'Happy-slapped': Friends told Daily Mail Australia that Bilardi was bullied while at high school in Craigieburn in Melbourne's north, and video emerged last night showing him being 'happy-slapped'

Islamabad, Pakistan (CNN)Police have arrested more than 500 parents in and around the northwestern Pakistani city of Peshawar for not allowing their children to get the polio vaccine, an official said Tuesday. Peshawar Deputy Commissioner Riaz Khan Mehsud told CNN that the 513 arrests took place Monday and Tuesday as part of a government campaign to administer polio vaccines in parts of Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. Those arrested will be released on bail if they sign an affidavit stating that they will let their children get vaccinated, according to the deputy commissioner. Pakistan's vaccination rate is inordinately low for a number of reasons, including attacks on medical workers, the displacement of people due to ongoing military operations and a lack of trust by some families. Whatever the reason, the fact that a large number of children are not immunized is having an impact. Such vaccines are credited with wiping out polio in most parts of the world. But Pakistan is an exception, according to the Global Polio Eradication Initiative, a public-private partnership that includes the World Health Organization and United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF). The South Asian nation leads all others in new polio cases in recent years, and has nine of this year's 10 reported cases. In 2014, Pakistan had 327 cases. The next closest country was Nigeria, with 36 cases. Authorities in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province hope to ensure that 2.7 million children there get vaccine drops. They've learned about more than 13,000 cases in which parents have not done so since a provincial campaign began two weeks ago, Mehsud said. Dr. Bilal Ahmad, a UNICEF team leader based in Pakistan, called authorities' unprecedented move a last-ditch effort to clear polio from "cluster" zones where large numbers of families have refused to get their children vaccinated. "First the workers (try to) convince them, then their supervisors, then senior members of the community," Ahmad said. "(This government action) is the final step in eradicating this issue." Polio is a highly infectious viral disease that primarily affects young children, sometimes leading to paralysis and death. The virus is easily preventable through immunization, but there's no cure once it is contracted. It went from being a health issue to a security issue after U.S. intelligence officials used a vaccination program to help in their hunt for Osama bin Laden in 2011. Under cover of the program, the CIA sought to collect DNA samples from relatives of the al Qaeda leader to verify his presence in a compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. CIA policy: Won't use vaccination programs as part of operations . Those administering the vaccines have become targets, with the National Emergency Operations Center reporting that more than 70 medical workers have been killed in attacks since December 2012. And in June 2012, Pakistani Taliban commander Hafiz Gul Bahadur announced that polio vaccines would be banned in another Pakistani province -- North Waziristan -- because of drone strikes there. Bahadur called the strikes "worse than polio." CNN's Sophia Saifi reported from Islamabad, and CNN's Greg Botelho wrote this report from Atlanta.

Official: Parents who sign affidavit vowing to vaccinate their children will be released . Pakistan has more new polio cases than any other country . Militants have targeted health workers administering vaccines for years .

The Football Association has charged Dagenham midfielder Joss Labadie with violent conduct following an incident involving Stevenage defender Ronnie Henry. The 24-year-old, who has been banned for biting before, was accused of sinking his teeth into the hand of Stevenage defender Ronnie Henry during Saturday's League Two fixture at the Lamex Stadium.

The pair clashed near the touchline when Henry tried to wrestle the ball out of Labadie's arms after play had been stopped. Henry immediately appeared to signal to the nearby assistant referee that he had been bitten.

Prince William launched his four-day visit to China today with a ceremony to bring good fortune. The second in line to the throne found himself in the unusual position of having to paint the eyes on a larger than life sheep - British cartoon character Shaun the Sheep, no less.

In the Chinese calendar this is the Year of the Sheep - and with Aardman Animation's Shaun being the UK's most famous export of the species, the British Council thought it might be fun to marry the two. The ceremony took place in the gardens of the residence of the British Ambassador, Barbara Woodward. William was shown five sculptures of Shaun, each decorated by a different artist, which are among 50 such sculptures to be displayed across China and later auctioned off in aid of the Beijing Cultural Development Fund.

Police are continuing to question a man arrested on suspicion of murdering missing chef Claudia Lawrence (pictured) Police are continuing to question a man arrested on suspicion of murdering missing chef Claudia Lawrence as they finished searching a house linked to his arrest. North Yorkshire Police arrested the married 59-year-old yesterday in connection with Miss Lawrence's disappearance in 2009. He remains in custody this morning and later today police will have to make a decision on whether to charge or release him, or will need to apply for extra time to question the suspect. Officers have been combing a semi-detached home in a quiet York cul-de-sac as part of their investigations, and a spokesman said the search of the property concluded last night. A spokesman said yesterday that Miss Lawrence, who was 35 when she went missing, had not been found. Her parents, Peter and Joan, were told about the arrest shortly before it was made public and are being supported by trained officers. Detective Superintendent Dai Malyn, of North Yorkshire Police, has urged people not to identify the arrested man, who is from the York area, for fear of compromising the inquiry at what they describe as a 'critical phase'. He said: 'To ensure the investigation and legal process are not compromised or potentially damaged in any way during this critical phase in seeking the truth about Claudia's disappearance, North Yorkshire Police strongly advises the media and members of the public against identifying the man who has been arrested. 'This includes naming or publishing images of the man on traditional media platforms or social networking sites. 'I urge everyone to show restraint and patience while we carry out these very important inquiries.' Scroll down for video . The father-of-two drank in the same pub as the missing university chef and lives within half a mile of her home in York. Miss Lawrence was reported missing by her father after concerns were raised when she failed to turn up for her 6am shift at work in March 2009. North Yorkshire Police began reviewing the case in 2013 and have since carried out a number of searches, including a detailed re-examination of Miss Lawrence's home, in the Heworth area of the city, and a fingertip search of an alleyway that leads to the rear of the house. Officers have been combing a semi-detached home in a quiet York cul-de-sac as part of their investigations, and a spokesman said the search of the property concluded last night . An officer searches the front garden of the York house yesterday as part of the police investigation . Police search the front of the house in York. The man arrested in connection with Miss Lawrence's disappearance remains in custody this morning . A 60-year-old man was arrested last year in connection with her disappearance and suspected murder but was later released without charge, while a 47-year-old man remains on bail on suspicion of perverting the course of justice. Mr Malyn said he was 'actively pursuing new leads' and that his team had made 'significant progress' since the force began reviewing the case in 2013. The detective said some people locally knew Miss Lawrence but have kept their relationship secret and some deliberately lied about a number of issues concerning their association with the chef. The arrest came days after police released previously unseen CCTV of a mystery man caught on camera walking towards the back of her terraced house on the evening she was last known to be alive. The footage, released to mark the anniversary of Miss Lawrence's disappearance, was taken at around 7.15pm on March 18 showing a man walking towards the rear of the missing chef;s house. The camera picks him up returning about one minute later and he appears to be carrying a bag over his shoulder. As he walks back to the main road he is seen to stop briefly as another man walks in front of him. Police appealed for information to identify both men and the arrest came five days later. Miss Lawrence's father, Peter, said yesterday: 'Any progress is good. It is encouraging to know that, following all the media activity over the last three weeks, from Claudia's 41st birthday to the sixth anniversary of her being missing, North Yorkshire Police continue to be active in seeking answers as to what has happened to Claudia. 'It is to be hoped that the matter can be resolved as soon as possible and I encourage people to continue to come forward with information to the police.' Miss Lawrence was reported missing by her father after concerns were raised when she failed to turn up for her 6am shift at work in March 2009 . Previously unseen CCTV footage released to mark the anniversary of Miss Lawrence's disappearance is shown on a digital advertising vehicle close to her home last week . Jen King, one of Miss Lawrence's closest friends, said: 'Everyone wants closure, but they have already arrested two people and got nowhere.' Neighbours in the quiet cul-de-sac in a middle-class neighbourhood were surprised by the police activity. One said: 'I know him, I've lived here for 20 years and he's just a normal bloke. He's lived here longer than me.' The neighbour said he had recently lost his job working as a manager for a large firm. Miss Lawrence returned home from work on Wednesday, March 18, 2009, and spoke to her parents separately on the phone that evening. She has not been seen since. Her father reported her missing on the Friday. Despite a huge investigation police have failed to find a single clue to explain what has happened to her. The suspect being questioned was one of many men who were spoken to at the time of the original police inquiry because he drank in the same pub as Miss Lawrence. The landlady of a different local pub, who also knows the suspect, said yesterday: 'He said the police spoke to him at the time, but he always made light of it. He said the police went to his house. He is a really funny, really nice guy who reads loads of books. He was very witty.' Anyone with information that could assist the investigation is asked to contact North Yorkshire Police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111 or www.crimestoppers-uk.org .

The footage, released to mark the anniversary of Miss Lawrence's disappearance, was taken at around 7.15pm on March 18 showing a man walking towards the rear of the missing chef;s house. The camera picks him up returning about one minute later and he appears to be carrying a bag over his shoulder. As he walks back to the main road he is seen to stop briefly as another man walks in front of him. Police appealed for information to identify both men and the arrest came five days later. Miss Lawrence's father, Peter, said yesterday: 'Any progress is good. It is encouraging to know that, following all the media activity over the last three weeks, from Claudia's 41st birthday to the sixth anniversary of her being missing, North Yorkshire Police continue to be active in seeking answers as to what has happened to Claudia. 'It is to be hoped that the matter can be resolved as soon as possible and I encourage people to continue to come forward with information to the police.' Miss Lawrence was reported missing by her father after concerns were raised when she failed to turn up for her 6am shift at work in March 2009 . Previously unseen CCTV footage released to mark the anniversary of Miss Lawrence's disappearance is shown on a digital advertising vehicle close to her home last week . Jen King, one of Miss Lawrence's closest friends, said: 'Everyone wants closure, but they have already arrested two people and got nowhere.' Neighbours in the quiet cul-de-sac in a middle-class neighbourhood were surprised by the police activity. One said: 'I know him, I've lived here for 20 years and he's just a normal bloke. He's lived here longer than me.' The neighbour said he had recently lost his job working as a manager for a large firm. Miss Lawrence returned home from work on Wednesday, March 18, 2009, and spoke to her parents separately on the phone that evening. She has not been seen since. Her father reported her missing on the Friday. Despite a huge investigation police have failed to find a single clue to explain what has happened to her. The suspect being questioned was one of many men who were spoken to at the time of the original police inquiry because he drank in the same pub as Miss Lawrence. The landlady of a different local pub, who also knows the suspect, said yesterday: 'He said the police spoke to him at the time, but he always made light of it. He said the police went to his house. He is a really funny, really nice guy who reads loads of books. He was very witty.' Anyone with information that could assist the investigation is asked to contact North Yorkshire Police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111 or www.crimestoppers-uk.org .

Transatlantic flights are bad enough, imagine the horror of having to spend 10 hours cooped up in an enclosed space with a spoiled brat on a drug-fueled meltdown. That's what British-born life coach Patricia Mitchell went through when she flew from London to LA last summer on board the same flight as hotel heir Conrad Hughes Hilton III, younger brother of the famous Paris. Hilton was arrested for his disturbing behavior on board the British Airways flight on July 31, in which he smoked marijuana in a lavatory, threw punches and threatened to 'f****** kill' multiple crew members. On Tuesday, as Hilton celebrated his 21st birthday, GQ published Mitchell's account of the transatlantic flight from hell which ended in Hilton being escorted off the plane in cuffs (though his lawyers have since saved him from any serious punishment). Embarrassing: Hotel heir Conrad Hughes Hilton III turned 21 on Tuesday, but he'll be spending his birthday week in court - pleading guilty to assault for the disturbance he caused on board a British Airways flight this past summer . Famous siblings: BA passenger Patricia Mitchell gave a blow-by-blow account of Conrad's tantrum in a recent story. Conrad pictured above with his very-famous older sister Paris in 2009 . According to an affidavit written by an FBI agent who investigated the incident, Hilton first started to cause a disturbance when he refused to turn off his phone before take off. In a suit: Hilton spotted leaving a federal courthouse in Los Angeles on February 3, 2015 after turning himself in for a public meltdown on the flight. His arraignment is scheduled for Thursday . Just a few minutes later, when the fasten seatbelt sign was still illuminated, Hilton got up from his seat on the second deck business class and went downstairs to wander the plane. Mitchell was seated on the lower deck where Hilton appeared and noted: 'It was during that bit when the stewards are up but nobody else should be. My ears were popping, and I was waiting for the drinks trolley, when suddenly, he's coming down the aisle. I thought, "Whoa, that's not normal." 'He was dressed posh casual, expensive haircut. He looked like a polo player and walked with a sure-footed march, being loud... I heard a lot of "f****." After crew asked him to return to his seat and he refused, Hilton 'threatens to hit someone seated four rows behind him.' Mitchell added, 'I thought he was in the middle of a psychotic episode.' For the next few hours Hilton paces around, swearing and threatening the crew and Mitchell wonders if the plane will be turned around. At one point, Hilton approached a member of the crew to complain about a passenger who was giving him the 'stink eye' when Mitchell considered taking out her phone to record the meltdown. But just one look from Hilton froze her in place. 'He looked at me, really threatening. I don't often watch horror movies, but you know how the walking dead have a look in their eye? I thought, "He's going to come at me next." He turned around and said, "Now everybody's judging me."' The flight attendants then closed the curtains. 'As Hilton wanders around the plane, he lashes out at the customer service manager who is shadowing him to protect the passengers and his 21-member crew,' she added. '"Stop following me!" Hilton yelled, adding: "I am going to f*** kill you!"' Mitchell remembered. He is also said to have screamed, 'I will f****ing own you!' After going back to business class, Mitchell said he 'punched the bulkhead 10 centimeters away from the attendant's head.' Numerous times, Hilton yelled, 'I will f***ing own anyone on this flight; they are f***ing peasants!' according to the complaint. Hilton then reportedly tells other random passengers that  he is already banned by other airlines, has just broken up with a girlfriend, and that his behavior will 'probably turn into a lawsuit for his father to pay.' He then says he wants to smoke marijuana. At 9:15 p.m. 'he locks himself in a lower deck restroom.' 'A smell of weed is detected in the cabin,' according to a report. He then leaves the cabin and goes to the upper deck where he allegedly smokes a cigarette. 'Upon exiting, he surrenders his lighter and cigarettes, returns to his seat and falls asleep,' Wallace reported. An hour later Hilton wakes up and 'approaches yet another flight attendant and says he's "going to f***ing kill" him three times,' it was added. British-born life coach Patricia Mitchell (pictured) reveals details of the flight from hell and describes the temper tantrum thrown by Patrick Hilton after he strolled out of business class and started berating passengers on the lower flight deck, calling them 'f****** peasants' All together: Conrad is pictured with the rest of the Hilton clan at a Christmas Eve dinner. From left: Siblings Paris, Conrad, Barron and Nicky Hilton and their parents Richard and Kathy Hilton . What a parent will do: According to an affidavit of the incident, Conrad claimed at one point to have been banned from other airlines and that the last time this happened his dad paid $300,000. Conrad pictured above with his father Richard in a photo posted to Instagram three weeks ago . 'He grabs the man's shirt and name badge saying, "I could get you all fired in five minutes. I know your boss!" He says, "My father will pay this out, he has done it before. Dad paid $300,000 last time,"' it was detailed in the complaint. He then offered to fight the co-pilot. After several more outbursts, the co-pilot 'comes out from the flight deck to present Hilton with a final written warning. Hilton rips it up.' At 2:20 a.m. London time, 'a second safety briefing is held to discuss restraining Hilton, who is again asleep,' reported Wallace. Hilton is then handcuffed while asleep. When he awakes he starts screaming. 'A buzz went around the plane that he had been restrained and we were all, "Fantastic. Good. Happy about that,"' added Mitchell. At about 3:15 a.m. London time [8:15 p.m. Los Angeles time], Flight 269 lands. Police come aboard and escort the handcuffed Hilton to the terminal, it was detailed in the affidavit. 'I remember coming off and seeing him sitting on a bench with what I assume was some kind of federal agent. You would have thought butter wouldn't melt in his mouth, he was so cool. He looked all innocent, like, "I don't know what the fuss is all about,"' said Mitchell. Her two brothers: Paris - now 34-years-old - pictured with both Conrad and Barron on the beach in 2014 . His other famous sister: Conrad with Nicky, 31, a fashion writer and fiancee of James Rothschild . Hilton's lawyer, Robert Shapiro, told TMZ.com that Hilton took a sleeping pill before the flight, which may have caused his behavior. Shapiro also said Hilton voluntarily checked himself into a 30-day rehab program after the flight. On February 2, Hilton was charged with intimidating or assaulting the flight crew to the point where he interfered with their ability to perform their duties - a crime which carries a sentence of up to 20 years in prison. He was released on $100,000 bail and just last week his lawyers struck a plea deal, in which he will plead guilty to one count of simple assault which has a maximum sentence of six months in jail, a year of probation and fine of $5,000. He will hear his sentence on Thursday. No one had heard of Hilton's in-flight meltdown until February when a federal criminal complaint was filed. Hilton was travelling aboard an AIRBUS A380 and was sat  on the top deck before he wandered down stairs and started abusing other passengers .

The Yak is back and so is the question that used to annoy him but now just brings a smile. Age, for the striker who scored more Premier League goals than Cristiano Ronaldo and Fernando Torres, has always been more than a number. That is possibly because David Moyes once joked Yakubu Aiyegbeni was a ‘Nigerian 25’. And because Steve McClaren claimed the striker told him he was 25 when he signed for Middlesbrough 10 years ago. Reading striker Yakubu insists he has never been concerned with the questions marks over his age . So, how old is he? The profiles say 32; the sceptics are ruder. The big man among Reading’s big dreamers says he’s heard it all before. ‘It was always like this,’ he says. ‘But it does not bother me. Kanu has had it as well. 'I just laugh about it — people joke and that is it. If I was lying I don’t think I would be playing now. I would be retired.’ Thankfully for Reading and the FA Cup, the jibes have not got the better of him. Yakubu scored the goal that saw off Derby in the fifth round to set up the tie against Bradford, guaranteeing at least one side from outside the Premier League will be at Wembley in the semi-finals. For the neutrals, the hope is that League One Bradford can trip up another bigger club. For Yakubu, there is the hope that he can make it to Wembley for the first time after a mangled achilles tendon kept him out of Everton’s 2009 final defeat against Chelsea. The Nigerian striker scores Reading's second goal during the FA Cup fifth round defeat against Derby . Saturday (kick-off 12.45pm). TV: BT Sport 1 (from 12pm). If he does, it will complete a quite surreal journey that spans almost three years since he left Blackburn — ending 10 seasons in England — following relegation to the Championship. His absence has seen him scream at confused Chinese footballers and gain a sweaty taste of football in Qatar. ‘No regrets,’ as Yakubu says. And yet there were times in China, at Guangzhou R&F in the days before Sven Goran Eriksson rocked up, where he quite literally had no idea what was going on. ‘When I was there (after leaving Blackburn), we had a Brazilian coach (Sergio Farias) and he spoke in Portuguese,’ Yakubu says. ‘A guy that speaks English, he had to translate into English and then another guy had to translate from Portuguese to Chinese. The manager is supposed to speak for like five minutes but we are there for nine minutes. Yakubu, seen here celebrating a goal against Manchester City in 2004, scored 43 goals for Portsmouth . Yakubu made sure Reading reached the FA Cup quarter-finals with this goal against the Rams . Yakubu felt he was away from English football for too long and jumped at the chance to return . ‘It’s so difficult to speak with your team-mates. You don’t know how to tell him to pass. You just scream at him and when you scream, he knows that he has to give you the ball. ‘When you want to go shopping or to a restaurant, you have to have it written in your phone in Chinese and you have to show it. Everywhere you go, you have to take your phone and show it to the taxi driver. ‘But when Sven came in, it was great to work with him again. I worked with him at Leicester City. He is always really calm. He just wants you to enjoy the game. Yakubu has scored more Premier League goals than Cristiano Ronaldo (above) and Fernando Torres . The frontman also scored 35 goals in 103 games for Middlesbrough between 2005 and 2007 . ‘Sometimes when I played two or three games and didn’t score, he never said to me, “You didn’t score”. He’d just walk towards me and say, smiling: “It’s been a while since you scored”. Always calm.’ After 18 months in China, Yakubu wound up at Al Rayyan in Qatar last year. He is confident that despite having to train in the middle of the night, they can host a good World Cup. ‘I had a good offer in Qatar,’ he says. ‘It was another experience so no regrets. Believe me, they can get a good World Cup there. They have nice stadiums. But when it is hot, it is hot. We had to train at 9.30pm in summer. You finish training at about 12 and then go home at 12.30am and then bed at about 4am. You have to stay home all day because it is really, really hot. You can’t train when it’s 50 degrees, it is too much.’ The 32-year-old had offers from American, China and Qatar ahead of his move to Reading . He adds: ‘In winter it is good, we can train at 4pm. We played matches at 7.30pm or 8pm and they have to stop for water breaks once or twice.’ On deadline day last month he came back to the country where he first arrived in 2003, when Harry Redknapp took a punt on a striker playing in Israel. ‘Even when you play the big teams, Harry makes you believe,’ he says. ‘He’ll say, “The defence is not good. Come on, just kill him”. If you’re scared, like you’re going to play against Sol Campbell, he’d say, “Sol Campbell? He’s s***. Don’t worry”.’ The memories of his first English stint make him happy. Now his hope is to finally reach Wembley on his second chapter. ‘Every player wants that,’ he says. You’re never too old to dream. The veteran striker believes former boss Harry Redknapp (left) 'makes you believe'

Yakubu has faced doubts about his age for the majority of his career . 32-year-old sealed deadline day move to Reading in September . He scored winner against Derby to help Royals into FA Cup quarter-finals . Nigerian is hoping to help Reading to victory against Bradford .

His absence has seen him scream at confused Chinese footballers and gain a sweaty taste of football in Qatar. ‘No regrets,’ as Yakubu says. And yet there were times in China, at Guangzhou R&F in the days before Sven Goran Eriksson rocked up, where he quite literally had no idea what was going on. ‘When I was there (after leaving Blackburn), we had a Brazilian coach (Sergio Farias) and he spoke in Portuguese,’ Yakubu says. ‘A guy that speaks English, he had to translate into English and then another guy had to translate from Portuguese to Chinese. The manager is supposed to speak for like five minutes but we are there for nine minutes. Yakubu, seen here celebrating a goal against Manchester City in 2004, scored 43 goals for Portsmouth . Yakubu made sure Reading reached the FA Cup quarter-finals with this goal against the Rams . Yakubu felt he was away from English football for too long and jumped at the chance to return . ‘It’s so difficult to speak with your team-mates. You don’t know how to tell him to pass. You just scream at him and when you scream, he knows that he has to give you the ball. ‘When you want to go shopping or to a restaurant, you have to have it written in your phone in Chinese and you have to show it. Everywhere you go, you have to take your phone and show it to the taxi driver. ‘But when Sven came in, it was great to work with him again. I worked with him at Leicester City. He is always really calm. He just wants you to enjoy the game. Yakubu has scored more Premier League goals than Cristiano Ronaldo (above) and Fernando Torres . The frontman also scored 35 goals in 103 games for Middlesbrough between 2005 and 2007 . ‘Sometimes when I played two or three games and didn’t score, he never said to me, “You didn’t score”. He’d just walk towards me and say, smiling: “It’s been a while since you scored”. Always calm.’ After 18 months in China, Yakubu wound up at Al Rayyan in Qatar last year. He is confident that despite having to train in the middle of the night, they can host a good World Cup. ‘I had a good offer in Qatar,’ he says. ‘It was another experience so no regrets. Believe me, they can get a good World Cup there. They have nice stadiums. But when it is hot, it is hot. We had to train at 9.30pm in summer. You finish training at about 12 and then go home at 12.30am and then bed at about 4am. You have to stay home all day because it is really, really hot. You can’t train when it’s 50 degrees, it is too much.’ The 32-year-old had offers from American, China and Qatar ahead of his move to Reading . He adds: ‘In winter it is good, we can train at 4pm. We played matches at 7.30pm or 8pm and they have to stop for water breaks once or twice.’ On deadline day last month he came back to the country where he first arrived in 2003, when Harry Redknapp took a punt on a striker playing in Israel. ‘Even when you play the big teams, Harry makes you believe,’ he says. ‘He’ll say, “The defence is not good. Come on, just kill him”. If you’re scared, like you’re going to play against Sol Campbell, he’d say, “Sol Campbell? He’s s***. Don’t worry”.’ The memories of his first English stint make him happy. Now his hope is to finally reach Wembley on his second chapter. ‘Every player wants that,’ he says. You’re never too old to dream.

(CNN)The father of baby Lily, found by rescuers after her mother's car flipped into a river, says she's doing great and that he feels blessed. Rescuers found the toddler Saturday hanging upside down in the car, which had crashed into a frigid Utah river a day before. 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. Deven Trafny, 34, was out of town on a job at the time of the accident, CNN affiliate KUTV reported. He rushed to his daughter's side as soon as he heard. "(I) came in, I put my finger in her hand, and I told her her Dad was here, and I love her," he told reporters Wednesday. "I haven't left her bedside since, and I've just been here just sitting next to her waiting for her to get better so she can come home." Trafny said that Lily is awake and has been singing nursery rhymes. Video of the two of them at a hospital shows her waving at a camera. "She knows everything she knew before anything happened. It's amazing. Doctors say it's amazing," he said. How did toddler survive car crash in Utah river? 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. The fisherman called emergency dispatch. 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. Lily was still strapped into her seat, where she may have been for 14 hours, if the wreck occurred at about 10:30 Friday night, as police believe. Trafny described Groesbeck as the love of his life, according to KUTV: "I'm going to miss her a lot. I still have to deal with that." But he also considers himself lucky to still have his daughter -- healthy and alive. "I'm just blessed. I'm counting all my blessings right now," said Trafny. CNN's Ben Brumfield contributed to this report.

Clair said: 'As soon as I had given birth we asked the midwife if she was OK and the doctor put him on me and said he was a boy. 'I said some choice words and James started laughing. I thought, 'it can't be a boy, everything I have bought is pink!' 'Of course we were just happy he was healthy. 'When they placed him on me, I thought 'what do I do now?''

The first thing I did when we got home was order Hugo a Newcastle United outfit.' The couple were told at a 20-week scan that they were expecting a baby girl and had already chosen the name Eden Elise. Clair said: 'We were really happy. I was in particular because I think every girl wants a girl and we thought it would be nice for Liv to have a little sister. 'We got all of the nursery things and co-ordinated her room. I had a baby shower and got lots of girly things.' The couple also revealed how friends and family initially did not believe them when they were told Clair had given birth to a boy.

'All the outfits we had bought to the hospital were pink so I had to dash out and buy him something blue to go home in. 'Our parents thought we were joking when we said we had a boy and we had to send them pictures for them to believe us. 'We named our baby boy Hugo and we are now waiting to redecorate his nursery.

Six schoolgirls subjected to 'horrific' sexual abuse and gang rape were accused by a defence lawyer of coming forward because 'it's better to be a victim than a slag'. The girls, aged between 13 and 16, were targeted by a gang of five men at under-18s parties organised by Ahmed Hassan-Sule, who has been found guilty of 12 counts of sexual abuse. Michael Magarian, QC, for the defence, suggested the girls abused in Banbury, Oxfordshire, only reported the crimes so they would not have to take responsibility for having underage sex. He said: 'It's better to be a victim than a slag. Once you are a victim who has been groomed you no longer have to take any responsibility for anything that you did.' Six schoolgirls were subjected to 'horrific' sexual attacks by a gang led by Ahmed Hassan-Sule (left), 20, who has been found guilty of 13 counts of abuse. Mohamed Saleh, 21, (right) was found guilty of sexual abuse . The Cambridge-educated QC, who specialises in gang related cases, said the schoolgirls could have been 'brainwashed by social workers', according to The Times. Mr Magarian also claimed during the trial at Oxford crown court that the prosecution was 'a police-manufactured case' Five men from Banbury were found guilty on Thursday of a string of sexual offences against the girls which took place over five years. The alleged leader of the group Ahmed Hassan-Sule, 20, known as 'Fiddy' was found guilty of 13 counts of sexual activity with a child one count of assault by penetration. Prosecution barrister Stuart Trimmer QC said the defendants identified their targets by organising parties – called 'Fiddy Events' – for under 18s. Takudzwa Hova (left), 21, was found guilty of one count of rape and Said Saleh (right) was convicted of one count of sexual activity with a child but was found not guilty of another count . The Cambridge-educated QC, who specialises in gang related cases, told Oxford Crown court (pictured) the schoolgirls could have been 'brainwashed by social workers' One child described the parties as 'a place where girls would go and the boys would choose their targets'. Clare Dowse, also for the defence, suggested that the children, from troubled backgrounds in Banbury, Oxfordshire, 'might be enjoying all the attention from police and social services'. The victims, described as 'emotionally immature' by prosecution lawyer Stuart Trimmer, were abused from 2009 to 2014. He said: 'Sadly for them they were identified by these defendants and used by them. Once they were into the cycle of abuse they had no realistic means of extricating themselves.' One girl said: 'They brainwashed me to think it was normal, what was happening.' Mohamed Saleh, 21, was found guilty of two counts of sexual activity with a child. He was found not guilty of one count of sexual activity with a child and one count of rape . Kagiso Manase, 20, was found guilty of one count of sexual assault . Kagiso Manase, 20, was convicted of three counts of sexual activity with a child, two counts of inciting a child to engage in sexual activity and one count of sexual assault. Takudzwa Hova, 21, was found guilty of one count of rape, one count of sexual activity with a child and two counts of causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity. He was found not guilty of one count of rape . Alexandru Nae, 19, was acquitted of one count of sexual activity with a child and one count of rape . The 17-year-old, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was found guilty of rape. Said Saleh, 20, was convicted of one count of sexual activity with a child but was found not guilty of another count. Mr Magarian's comments have been condemned as 'completely inappropriate' by the NSPCC. Jon Brown from the children's charity told The Times: 'They show a total lack of understanding of how children are groomed. Any suggestion that they may be to blame for the horrendous things that happened are totally wrong.' Jim Leivers, Oxfordshire County Council's Director for Children, Education and Families, said: 'This case embodies all of the lessons learned from Operation Bullfinch and is a very different case as a result. 'The social workers and police officers have worked in close co-operation on a day to day basis devoting a large amount of time to building high levels of trust between themselves and the victims over a long period.' 'These victims have shown real bravery. They have been rewarded for that bravery with the verdicts that have been returned - as have the professionals who have put huge amounts of time and effort in to working towards this outcome. 'Those same professionals have now already started working with the victims in this case to help their transition in to what we all hope will be a normal and healthy adulthood.' Senior investigating officer, Det Insp Steve Raffield, from Banbury Force CID, said: 'These offenders abused the trust of the vulnerable young victims for the purpose of their own sexual gratification. 'The girls were subject to horrific sexual offences including, in some cases, rape at the hands of these defendants. 'These horrific crimes will have a lasting impact upon the victims' lives. 'The fact that the offenders maintained they were not guilty of the offences resulted in the victims having to relive their experiences by giving evidence in court.' The men will be sentenced on 17 April.

(CNN)Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, made news this week when he told CNN's Dana Bash that he would get his health care through Obamacare. Previously, Cruz's family was covered under his wife's policy through her employer, the investment bank Goldman Sachs. But with her husband's presidential candidacy underway, Heidi Cruz has taken a leave without pay. So she has lost her Goldman Sachs health benefits. The story went viral, in part because Cruz once engineered a partial government shutdown to try to kill Obamacare. As part of his crusade, Cruz conducted a 21-hour talkathon on the Senate floor, during which he read Dr. Seuss' classic "Green Eggs and Ham." Spoiler alert: "Green Eggs and Ham" ends with the protagonist actually trying the food he thought he hated -- and liking it. Now that Cruz is likely to try Obamacare, my guess is he will have a similar experience. So, with apologies to Dr. Seuss -- who would no doubt have found a way to rhyme "President Bar" with "Obamacare" -- here is my updated version of "Green Eggs and Ham." President BarPresident BarI do not likethat President Bar . Do you likeObamacare? I do not like it,President Bar.I do not likeObamacare. Would you like ithere or there?

Paul Begala notes (in verse) Ted Cruz's apparent change of heart on Obamacare, which he slammed but has now signed up for . He says Cruz's politics will demand he continue to advocate for law's repeal despite benefits he receives from its coverage .

Despite claims that they are boozy or culturally ignorant abroad, British holidaymakers are now more adventurous than ever when it comes to local history and cuisine, new research suggests. A survey of UK tourists found that three-quarters of those polled are keen to learn 15 phrases in a foreign language while they’re abroad, and the average Briton wants to try six new local dishes or drinks. Homestay.com said its study reveals the typical British tourist is now more of a culture vulture than holiday resort recluse. British tourists are keen to learn about local culture while on holiday (pictured: Blue Mosque in Istanbul) The study by Homestay.com said the average Briton wants to try six new local dishes or drinks . Forty per cent of respondents said they want to learn about local customs and residents in the countries they are visiting this year.

Wayne Rooney switched his attention from boxing to golf as the Manchester United striker enjoyed a round in Cheshire on Wednesday. The England captain caused a stir at the weekend when a video emerged of him, appearing to be knocked out cold by Sunderland defender Phil Bardsley after an impromptu sparring session in his kitchen. The 29-year-old followed it up just hours later on Sunday with one of the best celebrations of the season after he scored the second in United's 3-0 Barclays Premier League win over Tottenham at Old Trafford. Wayne Rooney took a break from the daily grind by trying out a new club at a golf course . Rooney pokes fun at the release of a video showing him being Ko'd in his kitchen after scoring on Sunday . But he may have a different swinging celebration up his sleeve if he scores against United's arch-rivals Liverpool this Sunday. A smiling Rooney, who is known to have strong passion for the golfing greens as he does with prize-fighting, was dressed head-to-toe in the latest Nike Golf Vapor range as he hit the course for 18 holes. Rooney provided the knockout blow to Spurs, consolidating United's spot in the Champions League places . After powering past Champions League rivals Spurs, United will hope to send Liverpool off course . The star, who is pals with Manchester United-supporting world golf No 1 Rory McIlory, tweeted: 'Finally got out for a game of golf today and tested my new @nikegolf driver. It's the best one yet!' Rooney will return to training on Thursday as Louis van Gaal's side ramp up their preparations for their must-win trip to Anfield, where they look to strengthen their grip on a top-four place to qualify for next season's Champions League.

With their intoxicating spices and complex flavours, Indian curries are enjoyed the world over. Now, in a study of more than 2,000 recipes, scientists have discovered the secret behind curry's popularity on a molecular level. They claim that unlike Western dishes that tend to pair similar flavours together - such as beer and beef - Indian dishes use at least seven ingredients that do not contain overlapping flavours. Scroll down for video . With their intoxicating spices and complex flavours, Indian curries are enjoyed the world over. Now, in an analysis of more than 2,000 popular recipes, scientists have discovered the secret behind curry's popularity on a molecular level . Researchers at the Indian Institute for Technology in Delhi looked at how often overlapping flavour compounds were used in a dish's ingredients. They reviewed of recipes on TarlaDalal.com, studying the subtle molecular-level differences that distinguish the cuisine, according to a report in the Washington Post. 'We found that average flavour sharing in Indian cuisine was significantly lesser than expected,' researchers wrote. The study found that ingredients such as garam masala and bell peppers are usually teamed up with other ingredients that have no chemical similarity. Out of the 381 cooking ingredients in the world, the research team from that Indian food used 200 in their cuisine. 'Each of the spices is uniquely placed in its recipe to shape the flavor sharing pattern with rest of the ingredients,' the researchers said . This is in contrast to Western dishes that share like flavours. Chefs, for instance claim that seemingly incongruous ingredients, such as chocolate and blue cheese, can taste good together because they share similar compounds. A spice commonly used in curry could help erase bad memories, according to a study. Curcumin, a bright-yellow compound found in the root of the Indian spice turmeric, prevented new fear memories being stored in the brain, and also removed pre-existing fear memories, researchers found. It is hoped that the findings will help develop treatments for people suffering with psychological disorders. Psychologists from The City University of New York trained rats to become scared when they heard a particular sound. Scientists assumed the creatures were frightened when they froze. Hours later, when the same sound was played to the rats, those who had been given ordinary food froze. Yet the rats fed the curcumin-rich diet didn't freeze, suggesting their fearful memories had been erased. An example is acetal, which can be found in whiskey, apple juice, orange juice and raw beets. Strawberries, meanwhile, have flavour compounds that match white wine. In Indian dishes, the more overlap two ingredients have in flavour, the less likely they are to appear in the same Indian dish, the scientists said. Researchers believe this makes the dish more tasty as the ingredients each bring their own unique flavour to the dish, rather than simply blending in. Out of the 381 cooking ingredients in the world, the research team from that Indian food uses 200 in their cuisine. 'Each of the spices is uniquely placed in its recipe to shape the flavour sharing pattern with rest of the ingredients,' the researchers said. Previous research has found curry could actually be good for you, easing arthritis and even protecting people from Alzheimer's. Most curries contain turmeric, cumin, allspice, cardamon, ginger, garlic and capsicum - spices with strong anti-bacterial properties. This is largely why they're found in dishes from hot countries, where meat needs to be preserved. Separate studies have found that garlic, cinnamon and cumin can destroy up to 80 per cent of meat-borne bacteria, while ginger can slow bacterial growth by 25 per cent.

From iPhones to the latest Apple Watch, most people find it difficult to accurately recall what the 'most recognizable' brand's logo looks like when tested, according to a new study. The reason for this is because people are constantly hounded with logos which makes it difficult to remember them, researchers from the University of California, Los Angeles found. When asked to draw the Apple logo, only one in 85 participants were able to recreate it correctly in terms of shape, bite size and leaf shape and orientation. However, less than half of participants were able to identify it from a set of 12 similar Apple logos with altered features, according to the study which was published last month.

While it might initially be thought of as an easy task, when faced with all of the varying logos, it becomes increasingly difficult. Considering the fact that people are exposed to the Apple logo on products from mobile phones, computers and laptops, it could be expected that good memory would hold strong when correctly recognizing the logo. The reason for this is because people are constantly hounded with logos which makes it difficult to remember them, researchers from the University of California, Los Angeles found. While people are often exposed to the logo, they stop paying attention to the details of it which could be due to the fact that it is so simple and widely available (above left, an Apple iPhone 5C and right, the new Apple Watch that was displayed on Monday) However, 'memory is often tuned towards remembering gist-based schematic information' researchers said, which means details can be quickly forgotten. 'The ubiquitous Apple logo is a simple design and is often referred to as one of the most recognizable logos in the world,' wrote researchers. The Apple logo, which has had seven different versions over the years, has kept the same silhouette of an apple since first designed in 1977 (above the first Apple logo by co-founder Ronald Wayne in 1976 depicting Sir Isaac Newton) 'Participants showed surprisingly poor memory for the details of the logo as measured through recall [drawings] and forced-choice recognition.' The findings provided support for theories of attentional saturation, in attentional amnesia and reconstructive memory, as well as how availability can lead to overconfidence when it comes to memory.

Malaysia's transport minister on Thursday vowed to take stern action against an air traffic control supervisor if it is confirmed that he was asleep on the job when Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 disappeared a year ago. An interim investigation report last Sunday contained transcripts of conversations between air traffic controllers in the region and the airline that revealed confusion in the hours after the Boeing 777 dropped off radar with 239 people aboard while flying from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing. In one conversation four hours after the plane disappeared, a Kuala Lumpur air traffic controller told a Malaysia Airlines official that he would need to wake up his supervisor when pressed on the exact time of the last contact with the plane.

Great players with baggage like Yaya Toure are always worth the aggro when they are on top of their game. But when their form dips and yet they remain high maintenance, there is only ever one outcome. It happened to Roy Keane whose tantrums and outbursts were tolerated by Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United until the moment he no longer justified his place in the team. After the embarrassing mis-match in the Nou Camp when Barcelona could have scored at least six against Manchester City, you feel that time is rapidly running out for Toure and others like Vincent Kompany and Edin Dzeko. This summer will surely see a major transfusion of personnel at the Etihad if they are to challenge Europe's best. Midfielder Yaya Toure struggled to impress as City crashed out of the Champions League to Barcelona . City were happy to put up with the baggage that came with Toure (right) while he was performing at his best . City captain and defender Vincent Kompany (right) contests for the ball alongside Barcelona's Luis Suarez . Defender Pablo Zabaleta has been left out of City's team for their biggest games this season . Toure became the Premier League's best-paid player when he signed for Roberto Mancini from Barcelona in 2010. In domestic football, he has been an unqualified success and scored 24 goals last season as City won their second championship. His world-class strike against Sunderland at Wembley won Manuel Pellegrini the Capital One Cup. When things were rosy, the club were happy to overlook constant talk about him being linked with other clubs, his pushiness to secure improved contracts and a farcical stand-off about not being treated with enough respect on his birthday. Premier League managers felt the midfielder didn't do enough of the hard yards to protect City defensively but they were unable to capitalise much because when Yaya had the ball he was an unstoppable force of nature. But those days have gone and the 31-year-old's hapless showing against Barcelona as City crashed out of the Champions League underlined he is not the man to push the club forward any more. His dereliction of duty to allow Ivan Rakitic the space to score Barca's winner was noted immediately. Going forward, his shooting was wayward and he was taken off before the end by Pellegrini – unthinkable one or two years ago. Remember, Toure had been banned for the previous three games in Europe and this was his big chance to show the world what he was still capable of. The club are in no hurry to offer the current African Player of the Year a new deal at anything like the £240,000-a-week terms of his last contract. Indeed, with Financial Fair Play now increasingly important, the temptation to offload him and his wages to Inter Milan this summer to allow new blood is very tempting.

Striker Sergio Aguero (left) missed a penalty as City were eliminated 3-1 on aggregate by Barcelona . City defender Martin Demichelis (left) challenges Messi of Barcelona for possession of the ball . City's failure to reach Europe's last eight under their Abu Dhabi owners will create a major rethink at the club this summer. All their marquee names like Sergio Aguero and David Silva were signed before Pellegrini's arrival in 2013. While their rivals are signing young, hungry, world-class players like Eden Hazard, Alexis Sanchez and Philippe Coutinho, City looked ageing and stilted in the Nou Camp. Toure symbolises the malaise but he's not the only one. Skipper Vincent Kompany has been off the boil all season and can no longer lead while his personal form is so patchy. At 30 years old, Pablo Zabaleta is still able to cope with run-of-the-mill league games but it's interesting he has been left out of the really big matches like Chelsea away and Barcelona away. Edin Dzeko isn't going to get any better, neither is Martin Demichelis or Aleksandar Kolarov. If they stay at City, they will only be squad players and in the case of Dzeko in particular his wages are astronomical compared with strikers at other clubs. The new signings from Txiki Begiristain have been flops. Fernando, Eliaquim Mangala and Wilfried Bony cost £72million and yet none of them are considered good enough to start. Stevan Jovetic, a young and skilful import from Serie A, has fallen so far down the pecking order he was sacrificed from City's Champions League squad, reduced as an FPP punishment.

A 28-year-old man has been indicted in the murders of an elderly couple who believed they were meeting him to buy their dream car. Ronnie 'Jay' Towns, who was arrested on January 26, was formally charged with multiple counts, including malice murder, felony murder and armed robbery, in Telfair County, Georgia on Monday. Towns allegedly shot Marietta couple, Elrey 'Bud' Runion, 69, and his wife June, 66, after he responded to Mr Runion's Craigslist post seeking his dream car. The grandfather was looking for someone willing to sell their 1966 Ford Mustang convertible; he had bought the same model after returning from the Vietnam War decades ago. Scroll down for video . Indicted: Ronnie 'Jay' Towns, pictured in court in January, has been indicted in the deaths of an elderly Georgia couple. They were killed after Towns allegedly told them he had a car they were interested in buying . After receiving a response from a potential seller, the couple set out for Telfair County to check out the car. They were last seen taking their evening trip on January 22. According to the indictment, Towns met the couple and, brandishing a weapon, stole their phones, Mr Runion's wallet, his wife's purse and the couple's SUV, the Macon Telegraph reported. Their SUV was found submerged in a pond near Towns' home several days later, and the couple's bodies were found along a nearby dirt road. They had been shot in their heads. Telfair County Sheriff Chris Steverson has previously said that robbery appears to be the motive for the killings. He said investigators found no evidence he had the sort of car the couple had been seeking. On Monday, Towns' attorney, Franklin J. Hogue, told the Macon Telegraph that his client, who worked in construction and has a wife and a two-year-old daughter, had not confessed to anything. Killed: Bud and June Runion, who had been married for 38 years, were found shot dead along a dirt road in Georgia in January, several days after they left their home to meet a potential car seller . Beloved: The couple, who ran their own charity, left behind three daughters and three grandchildren . Hogue called Towns, who has no prior criminal record, 'very courteous and polite'. Towns will return to court on April 9 for a bond hearing and on June 25, he will appear at an arraignment, where he will plead guilty or not guilty to the charges. At that hearing, prosecutors will also reveal if they plan to seek the death penalty. The beloved couple, who had been married 38 years, left behind three daughters and three grandchildren, according to their obituaries. They ran a charity called Bud's Bicycles which had helped people in need from storm-damaged Alabama towns and impoverished pockets of West Virginia to their hometown in suburban Atlanta. 'He said, "You can't take money with you when you're gone,"' the couple's daughter, Brittany Patterson, told the Associated Press in January. 'You might as well spend and enjoy it.'

She recalled how, years ago, Runion drove past two young girls sorting through a Dumpster on Christmas Eve. He fixed up two bicycles belonging to his own girls and delivered them as gifts. It was the beginning of 'Bud's Bicycles,' a charity run loosely out of Mount Paran Church of God in Marietta. Runion met his wife, a teacher, at the church in the 1970s. Neighbors said the Runions built a shed in their backyard to house the bikes. Their donations eventually expanded to include food, household and school supplies, coats and blankets. 'Basically, he had a food pantry in the basement of their house,' Patterson said.

New Delhi (CNN)A gang of robbers struck a Christian school in eastern India on Saturday, and one of them raped a 71-year-old nun, a senior official said. The man apparently did so, because she resisted the robbers, said P.B. Salim, chief administrator of the West Bengal state's Nadia district. Previously, a church official had told CNN sister broadcaster CNN-IBN that three or four of the men had raped the woman. A group of seven to eight men allegedly barged into the school and its attached staff residence during pre-dawn hours, and the elderly Sister Superior raised an alarm and resisted, Salim said. The rape was apparently punishment for it. Later, the men tied her up along with two other nuns and the building guard. The robbers then made off with cash worth a few hundred thousand rupees (thousands of dollars), laptops and other articles, Salim said. The attacked nun is under medical care. "Physically, she is better. But the mental trauma will take its own time to heal," Salim said. "It is a very, very shameful act, first of all, to rape any woman, any female," Father Dominic Emmanuel of the Delhi Catholic Archdiocese said in televised comments. "But this one becomes even worse because, first of all, she is an old lady and then on top of it, she is a nun. She is a religious (and) has consecrated her life to God and all her life she has remained a virgin." The investigation into the burglary and rape is ongoing, and no arrests have yet been made, Salim told CNN. A series of rape cases involving girls, foreign tourists and a physiology student who died following a brutal gang rape in 2012 has hurt India's international reputation. Crowds have taken to Indian streets to protest against rape. The nation's lawmakers introduced tougher laws and punishments for sexual crimes and harassment. Despite such action, India continues to see episodes of sexual violence. For instance, five men were arrested in Kolkata in January and charged with raping a Japanese tourist. Police said the men operated as a gang and targeted single, Japanese tourists. In December, an Uber driver was charged with sexually assaulting a passenger. The incident that grabbed the world's attention was the rape of a woman by five men on a bus in 2012. She later died of her injuries. Anti-rape activists complained when the Indian government restricted the showing of a BBC documentary about rape that included comments from one of those men. He provoked outrage around the world by blaming the victim and saying the woman "should just be silent and allow the rape." Official data in India show that rape cases have jumped almost 875% over the past 40 years -- from 2,487 in 1971 to 24,206 in 2011. But campaigners say sexual assaults are underreported because of stigma and cultural factors. Experts say the causes of the high number of rapes include the nation's patriarchy, widespread poverty and lack of law enforcement in rural areas.

Hong Kong (CNN)It wasn't supposed to work. But China's Great Firewall -- a massive Internet surveillance and content control system -- has, in many respects, been an unparalleled success. China has Internet companies worth billions of dollars and more web users than the population of the United States -- all while still being able to block information it deems counter to its interests. And now, some fear, the model is going global. "If you are sitting in Beijing, what's the problem?" asks Bill Bishop, China watcher and author of the Sinocism China newsletter in the latest episode of "On China." "You are still in power, you have 650 million Internet users, you have billions of dollars of economic value going to the Internet everyday, you've used the Internet to increase government transparency, investors love us and they can't throw enough money at our companies that have more than half a trillion dollars in market capitalization," says Bishop. Soon after China tip-toed onto the Internet in the late 1980s, it laid down the foundation of the Great Firewall but critics asserted that an Internet with Chinese characteristics would be no Internet at all. During a high-profile media tour in Beijing in 1999, MIT Media Lab founder and technology pundit Nicholas Negroponte declared that a "healthy disrespect for authority" was required for any successful Internet industry. A year later, then-U.S. President Bill Clinton announced that "liberty will spread by cell phone and cable modem" and that any attempt to control the Internet in China would be "like trying to nail Jell-O to the wall." Well folks, it's now 2015 and China has done the impossible. It's nailed the Jell-O. China has proven it can have its Great Firewall and enjoy great prosperity too. Lokman Tsui, associate professor at the Chinese University of Hong Kong and former head of free expression at Google Asia-Pacific, says that most Chinese are happy with the status quo. "Their lives have noticeably improved," he says. "The model has worked so far." Currently home to the world's largest Internet market, China is also home to some of the world's most valuable Internet companies including e-commerce giant Alibaba and Tencent, now estimated to be worth $66.1 billion. The government has fostered the development of the Internet by offering incentives for local entrepreneurs while building walls to keep big Western rivals out. The ban on Western social media sites like YouTube and Facebook has also given home court advantage to China's own Internet stars like Youku and WeChat. And contrary to Negroponte's declaration, respecting the strict rules that govern China's Internet has not gotten in the way of innovation as Chinese tech developers reinterpret existing business models and build out new mobile apps. "I haven't really come across anybody who would say that yes, because we don't have a free Internet, therefore we can't innovate," says Bishop. "From Beijing's perspective, there's this fear that if we open up the Internet then it will be chaos. So if the cost is good-enough or almost-good-enough innovation... it seems like a pretty straight forward equation from the perspective of the policymakers." And there are signs the Great Firewall is expanding its reach. Last week, the Chinese and English news websites of Reuters news agency became inaccessible in China, joining a number of foreign media destinations that are barred online in China. There have been ways to get around it. Through VPNs, or Virtual Private Networks, web users in China can access restricted content. But in a recent crackdown, the Chinese government is shutting down VPNs -- Beijing's latest move to shore up its cyber-authority. "You can filter out keywords, you can filter by URL, you can block or poison DNS (domain name system), and increasingly now they identify VPNs," says Tsui. "The problem is that it's decided on a national level by the government," he adds. "It's this attitude that 'father knows best.'" And that "father" would be Lu Wei, the so-called Internet czar of China who was recently photographed smiling at Mark Zuckerberg's desk during a visit at Facebook's headquarters in California. "Lu Wei is really pushing this 'Internet sovereignty' model, where we can control the information, we can control the Internet within our borders and we will use our model," says Roseann Rife, the East Asia research director of Amnesty International. "More than that, the Chinese authorities are pushing this as a model for the globe and they are going to get a lot of acceptance or buy-in from a lot of different countries." Amnesty International fears the Great Firewall could become the next great export from China. "It would be a very attractive model for instance for Russia, for Egypt, or for other states," Rife says. "It would be obviously in China's interest for other people and other nation states to agree with them and their interpretation of Internet sovereignty." And instead of backing away, Western onlookers may be nodding their heads in agreement. Last year, the U.S.-based LinkedIn decided to censor some content on its Chinese site. And fear is mounting that Zuckerberg's recent charm offensive with Lu Wei reflects Facebook's desire to do whatever it takes to crack the China market. So would global Internet users rise up against a Facebook that censors its posts and monitors its users to comply with local laws in China? It's unlikely, says Bishop. "I actually think most users don't care." "At the end of the day, they're not going to give up Facebook because Facebook is operating differently in China." A Facebook that fits the firewall, and fortune at the expense of freedom. That is precisely China's vision of how the Internet should be.

<s>[INST] Hong Kong (CNN)It wasn't supposed to work. But China's Great Firewall -- a massive Internet surveillance and content control system -- has, in many respects, been an unparalleled success. China has Internet companies worth billions of dollars and more web users than the population of the United States -- all while still being able to block information it deems counter to its interests. And now, some fear, the model is going global. "If you are sitting in Beijing, what's the problem?" asks Bill Bishop, China watcher and author of the Sinocism China newsletter in the latest episode of "On China." "You are still in power, you have 650 million Internet users, you have billions of dollars of economic value going to the Internet everyday, you've used the Internet to increase government transparency, investors love us and they can't throw enough money at our companies that have more than half a trillion dollars in market capitalization," says Bishop. Soon after China tip-toed onto the Internet in the late 1980s, it laid down the foundation of the Great Firewall but critics asserted that an Internet with Chinese characteristics would be no Internet at all. During a high-profile media tour in Beijing in 1999, MIT Media Lab founder and technology pundit Nicholas Negroponte declared that a "healthy disrespect for authority" was required for any successful Internet industry. A year later, then-U.S. President Bill Clinton announced that "liberty will spread by cell phone and cable modem" and that any attempt to control the Internet in China would be "like trying to nail Jell-O to the wall." Well folks, it's now 2015 and China has done the impossible. It's nailed the Jell-O. China has proven it can have its Great Firewall and enjoy great prosperity too. Lokman Tsui, associate professor at the Chinese University of Hong Kong and former head of free expression at Google Asia-Pacific, says that most Chinese are happy with the status quo. "Their lives have noticeably improved," he says. "The model has worked so far." Currently home to the world's largest Internet market, China is also home to some of the world's most valuable Internet companies including e-commerce giant Alibaba and Tencent, now estimated to be worth $66.1 billion. The government has fostered the development of the Internet by offering incentives for local entrepreneurs while building walls to keep big Western rivals out. The ban on Western social media sites like YouTube and Facebook has also given home court advantage to China's own Internet stars like Youku and WeChat. And contrary to Negroponte's declaration, respecting the strict rules that govern China's Internet has not gotten in the way of innovation as Chinese tech developers reinterpret existing business models and build out new mobile apps. "I haven't really come across anybody who would say that yes, because we don't have a free Internet, therefore we can't innovate," says Bishop. "From Beijing's perspective, there's this fear that if we open up the Internet then it will be chaos. So if the cost is good-enough or almost-good-enough innovation... it seems like a pretty straight forward equation from the perspective of the policymakers." And there are signs the Great Firewall is expanding its reach. Last week, the Chinese and English news websites of Reuters news agency became inaccessible in China, joining a number of foreign media destinations that are barred online in China. There have been ways to get around it. Through VPNs, or Virtual Private Networks, web users in China can access restricted content. But in a recent crackdown, the Chinese government is shutting down VPNs -- Beijing's latest move to shore up its cyber-authority. "You can filter out keywords, you can filter by URL, you can block or poison DNS (domain name system), and increasingly now they identify VPNs," says Tsui. "The problem is that it's decided on a national level by the government," he adds. "It's this attitude that 'father knows best.'" And that "father" would be Lu Wei, the so-called Internet czar of China who was recently photographed smiling at Mark Zuckerberg's desk during a visit at Facebook's headquarters in California.

(CNN)CNN has learned that the manufacturer of the endoscope involved in two superbug deaths at UCLA never obtained permission to sell the device, according to an official at the Food and Drug Administration. Olympus started selling its TJF-Q180V duodenoscope in 2010, but the FDA didn't notice until late 2013 or early 2014 that the company had never asked for clearance to put it on the market, according to Karen Riley, deputy director of strategy for the FDA's Office of External Affairs. "Why didn't we notice it? I don't know," Riley said. "Can you imagine a prescription drug getting out on the market that didn't go through the approval process?" asked Dr. Steven Nissen, the chief of cardiovascular medicine at the Cleveland Clinic, who's testified to Congress about device safety problems. "Devices need to be regulated more vigorously. This is really disturbing." In a statement, Olympus said it didn't think needed the FDA's permission to sell the device, but now at the request of the agency, it has applied for that permission. That application is still pending. Seven hospital patients at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center were infected with the deadly superbug CRE -- also known as carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae -- from October to January, according to hospital officials. Two of those patients died. The patients caught CRE after routine endoscopic treatments. Hospital officials believe two medical scopes that still carried the deadly bacteria even after disinfection guidelines were followed were the cause of the superbug outbreak. The medical center has contacted 179 others who had endoscopic procedures between October and January and is offering them home tests to screen for the bacteria. Four other patients at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles have also been infected with the superbug linked to a contaminated duodenoscope, according to a statement released by the hospital. The medical scope was used in all four patients, between August and January 2015. Sixty-four other patients who had a duodenoscope procedure with that particular scope are being informed by mail, "out of an abundance of caution." According to FDA rules, a manufacturer must seek clearance for a new model if it includes changes that "could significantly affect the safety or effectiveness of the device." The TJF-Q180V duodenoscope, used to check out ducts in the gastrointestinal system, includes a modification to the exact part of the device that's been implicated in the superbug outbreaks. With this new model, Olympus sealed up that part of the device, known as the elevator channel, hoping to make it more impervious to infection. "The company clearly made these modifications to make the device safer, but it seems to be that it wasn't safer," Riley said. Last year, at the FDA's request, Olympus applied for permission to sell the scope. That application is still pending. Riley emphasized that duodenoscope procedures can be lifesaving, so the agency doesn't want to take them off the market. "More than 500,000 of these procedures are done every year in the U.S., and the risk of bacterial transmission is actually really very, very low," she said. "We believe the benefits outweigh the risks." In its statement, Olympus wrote: "The emergence of drug-resistant microorganisms is a challenge to the entire health care community. Olympus is working with relevant medical societies and our customers in research of this emerging issue and the development of additional safeguards to prevent infection associated with [duodenoscope procedures]." Riley noted that the other two duodenoscope manufacturers, Pentax and Fujifilm, did apply for and were granted clearance to market models similar to Olympus' TJF-Q180V. Now the FDA is asking all three companies to submit evidence that the scopes can be thoroughly cleaned -- and so far it's not going well. Riley said twice the companies have submitted data that failed to show that cleaning could get rid of 99.9999% of all microbes on the scope -- the FDA's standard for disinfection. "We're still working with them to get good data," she said. Riley said she doesn't know if the FDA will penalize Olympus for selling the device without permission. Diana Zuckerman, a device safety expert, said they should. "It's like with kids. How do you teach your children to behave if there are no consequences when they misbehave?" she said.

It has found the 'God particle', and could soon reveal a mysterious force known as 'dark matter'. But when it turns on next week, some scientists are betting the Large Hadron Collider will detect something just as exciting; a parallel universe. This is according to a new study that claims miniature black holes - a key sign of a 'multiverse' - could be detected in Cern's LHC in Geneva. Scroll down for video . It has found the 'God particle', and could soon reveal a mysterious force known as 'dark matter'.But when it turns on next week, some scientists are betting the Large Hadron Collider in Geneva will detect something even more exciting; a parallel universe . The Rainbow Gravity theory suggests that gravity's effect on the cosmos causes different wavelengths of light to behave differently. This means that particles with different energies will move in space-times and gravitational fields differently. The theory was proposed 10 years ago in an attempt to reconcile difference between the theories of general relativity and quantum mechanics. One consequence of rainbow gravity is that our universe stretches back into time infinitely with no singular point where it started. 'Just as many parallel sheets of paper, which are two dimensional objects (breath and length) can exist in a third dimension (height), parallel universes can also exist in higher dimensions' Mir Faizal from the University of Waterloo told Dailymail.com. 'We predict that gravity can leak into extra dimensions, and if it does, then miniature black holes can be produced at the LHC.' Professor Faizal and his team have calculated the energy at which they expect to detect these mini black holes in gravity's rainbow, according to a report by Lisa Zyga at Phys.org. 'If we do detect mini black holes at this energy, then we will know that both gravity's rainbow and extra dimensions are correct,' added Professor Faizal. When it's activated, the energy with which the LHC smashes particles together will be twice what it was during the time when it made the discovery of the Higgs boson. Billions of particles flying off from each LHC collision are tracked at Cern detectors to establish when and how they come together and what shapes they take. The Cern theoreticians say this could give clear signs of dimensions beyond length, breadth, depth and time. At such high energy gravity many be even tracked disappearing into them. Parallel universes can exist within these dimensions, the thinking goes, but only gravity can leave our universe into these extra dimensions. If extra dimensions do exist, the study suggests that they would lower the energy required to produce black holes which the LHC could pick. Professor Faizal suggests the reason these black holes have yet to be detected is because our current model of gravity gets modified at very high energies. According to Phys.org, in the latest study, the new theory of gravity's rainbow has been used to account for why the LHC has not yet found tiny black holes. The new theory of gravity's rainbow has been used to account for why the LHC has not yet found tiny black holes. Einstein's theory of relativity states that gravity is caused by space and time curving. Gravity's rainbow says that space and time curve differently for particles of different energy . Einstein's theory of relativity states that gravity is caused by space and time curving. Gravity's rainbow says that space and time curve differently for particles of different energy. So, gravity's rainbow suggests that gravity's effect on the cosmos causes different wavelengths of light to behave differently. This means that particles with different energies will move in space-times and gravitational fields differently. Using gravity's rainbow, the scientists found that more energy is required to detect mini black holes at the LHC than previously thought. So far, the LHC has searched for mini black holes at energy levels below 5.3 TeV. But the latest study says this is too low. Instead, the model predicts that black holes may form at energy levels of at least 9.5 TeV in six dimensions and 11.9 TeV in 10 dimensions. If mini black holes are detected at the LHC at the predicted energies, not only will it prove the existence of extra dimensions and by extension parallel universes, said Ahmed Farag Ali from Florida State University. 'If black holes are not detected at the predicted energy levels, this would mean one of three possibilities,' Mohammed Khalil explained to Phys.Org . 'One, extra dimensions do not exist. Two, they exist, but they are smaller than expected. Or three, the parameters of gravity's rainbow need to be modified.' The holographic model suggests gravity in the universe comes from thin, vibrating strings. These strings are holograms of events that take place in a simpler, flatter cosmos . The universe is a hologram and everything you can see - including this article and the device you are reading it on - is a mere projection. This is according to a controversial model proposed in 1997 by theoretical physicist Juan Maldacena. Until now the bizarre theory had never been tested, but recent mathematical models suggest that the mind-boggling principle could be true. According to the theory, gravity in the universe comes from thin, vibrating strings. These strings are holograms of events that take place in a simpler, flatter cosmos. Professor Maldacena's model suggests that the universe exists in nine dimensions of space, and one of time. In December, Japanese researchers attempted to tackle this problem by providing mathematical evidence that the holographic principle might be correct. The holographic principle suggests that, like the security chip on a credit card for example, there is a two-dimensional surface that contains all the information needed to describe a three-dimensional object - which in this case is our universe. In essence, the principle claims that data containing a description of a volume of space - such as a human or a comet - could be hidden in a region of this flattened, 'real' version of the universe. In a black hole, for instance, all the objects that ever fall into it would be entirely contained in surface fluctuations. This means that the objects would be stored almost as 'memory' or fragment of data rather than a physical object in existence.

Scientists predict gravity can sometimes leak into an extra dimension . If this happens, it will create tiny black holes that can be found by LHC . LHC has failed to find any, but study claims it has gravity model wrong . Theory says it should be looking for black holes at higher energy levels . The LHC is due to be turned back on next week with double the energy .

The Cern theoreticians say this could give clear signs of dimensions beyond length, breadth, depth and time. At such high energy gravity many be even tracked disappearing into them. Parallel universes can exist within these dimensions, the thinking goes, but only gravity can leave our universe into these extra dimensions. If extra dimensions do exist, the study suggests that they would lower the energy required to produce black holes which the LHC could pick. Professor Faizal suggests the reason these black holes have yet to be detected is because our current model of gravity gets modified at very high energies. According to Phys.org, in the latest study, the new theory of gravity's rainbow has been used to account for why the LHC has not yet found tiny black holes. The new theory of gravity's rainbow has been used to account for why the LHC has not yet found tiny black holes. Einstein's theory of relativity states that gravity is caused by space and time curving. Gravity's rainbow says that space and time curve differently for particles of different energy . Einstein's theory of relativity states that gravity is caused by space and time curving. Gravity's rainbow says that space and time curve differently for particles of different energy. So, gravity's rainbow suggests that gravity's effect on the cosmos causes different wavelengths of light to behave differently. This means that particles with different energies will move in space-times and gravitational fields differently. Using gravity's rainbow, the scientists found that more energy is required to detect mini black holes at the LHC than previously thought. So far, the LHC has searched for mini black holes at energy levels below 5.3 TeV. But the latest study says this is too low. Instead, the model predicts that black holes may form at energy levels of at least 9.5 TeV in six dimensions and 11.9 TeV in 10 dimensions. If mini black holes are detected at the LHC at the predicted energies, not only will it prove the existence of extra dimensions and by extension parallel universes, said Ahmed Farag Ali from Florida State University. 'If black holes are not detected at the predicted energy levels, this would mean one of three possibilities,' Mohammed Khalil explained to Phys.Org . 'One, extra dimensions do not exist. Two, they exist, but they are smaller than expected. Or three, the parameters of gravity's rainbow need to be modified.' The holographic model suggests gravity in the universe comes from thin, vibrating strings. These strings are holograms of events that take place in a simpler, flatter cosmos . The universe is a hologram and everything you can see - including this article and the device you are reading it on - is a mere projection. This is according to a controversial model proposed in 1997 by theoretical physicist Juan Maldacena. Until now the bizarre theory had never been tested, but recent mathematical models suggest that the mind-boggling principle could be true. According to the theory, gravity in the universe comes from thin, vibrating strings. These strings are holograms of events that take place in a simpler, flatter cosmos. Professor Maldacena's model suggests that the universe exists in nine dimensions of space, and one of time. In December, Japanese researchers attempted to tackle this problem by providing mathematical evidence that the holographic principle might be correct. The holographic principle suggests that, like the security chip on a credit card for example, there is a two-dimensional surface that contains all the information needed to describe a three-dimensional object - which in this case is our universe. In essence, the principle claims that data containing a description of a volume of space - such as a human or a comet - could be hidden in a region of this flattened, 'real' version of the universe. In a black hole, for instance, all the objects that ever fall into it would be entirely contained in surface fluctuations. This means that the objects would be stored almost as 'memory' or fragment of data rather than a physical object in existence. [/INST] Scientists predict gravity can sometimes leak into an extra dimension . If this happens, it will create tiny black holes that can be found by LHC . LHC has failed to find any, but study claims it has gravity model wrong . Theory says it should be looking for black holes at higher energy levels . The LHC is due to be turned back on next week with double the energy . </s>

The price of olive oil is expected to rocket after the EU ordered the felling of millions of trees infected with a deadly microbe. Brussels has recommended that about 11million olive trees in southern Italy, many centuries old, be chopped down. They have been infected with Xylella fastidiosa, a bacterium spread by an aphid. The disease, first identified in the Americas has already wiped out a million trees in Salento, southern Puglia. Olive trees in southern Puglia in Italy. The EU has recommended that 11million trees be cut down after they were found to be infected with a deadly microbe . It is feared that unless drastic action is taken to fell the groves, the bacterium will spread to other olive-producing regions of Italy such as Tuscany and Umbria, and even to other Mediterranean countries. Xylella fastidiosa can also infect vines, almond trees and other crops. Puglia, a region in the heel of Italy, produces about 11million tons of olives a year, more than a third of the national crop, and they are used to make some of the country’s best oils. If the trees are destroyed, it could effect production and send the prices of olive oil soaring . The initial area to be culled is 20,000 acres – about 30 sq miles – between Lecce to Brindisi. It contains around 11million trees, according to Unaprol, the largest consortium of growers. Many of Italy’s oldest olive groves, some dating back 500 years, have been infected by the bacterium, which causes plants to shrivel, leaving them incapable of bearing fruit. The effect on production will mean shortages in the supply of olive oil and is likely to lead to higher prices for shoppers in Britain and around the world. Vytenis Andriukaitis, the European Commissioner for Food Safety and Security, said he was ‘profoundly concerned by the gravity of the situation’. He added: ‘We have to take decisive measures with immediate effect. Naturally it is very painful for the growers but it is necessary to remove all the affected trees, it is the most effective measure.’ A committee will meet on Thursday next week to rubber stamp the directive, which growers fear will create a desert in the area as it will not be possible to replant it with olive groves. Popular singer and olive producer Albano Carrisi said culling the trees is ‘cruel’ and ‘useless’. He said: ‘Do not disfigure our beautiful Puglia. Puglia without olives is like the Vatican without cardinals’. Gianni Cantele, president of one Puglia producers’ consortium, Coldiretti, said it was ‘a natural disaster’.

An ISIS-inspired teen in Tokyo has been caught 'practicing murder' with a junior school's pet goat, according to the Tokyo metropolitan police. The 14-year old boy, who can not be named for legal reasons, said he wanted behead the kid goat before he attacked a human victim after viewing videos of the recent killings of Japanese hostages by ISIS. Police in Tachikawa, a middle-class bed-town serving central Tokyo, said that the boy had been found attacking the goat with a crowbar at 1am in the morning on March 16. Victim: Inspired by watching horrendous videos of ISIS executions, a teenager in Tokyo tried to behead a goat (pictured) as 'practice' before attacking a human . Lucky escape: The boy was found attacking the goat with a crowbar at 1am in Tachikawa, a middle-class town serving central Tokyo . Chilling inspiration: Police quoted the boy who tried to behead the goat (pictured) as saying: 'I wanted to murder somebody, anybody, after viewing videos of the Islamic State' Safe: The goat escaped any serious injuries and the boy - who is a minor - does not qualify for Japan's capital punishment laws despite calls on Twitter to give him the death penalty . Police said they were alerted to the assault when a passing police officer heard the repeated bleatings of the goat. The teen was caught chasing it and was found to be carrying a saw and other workman's tools. 'I wanted to murder somebody, anybody, after viewing videos of the Islamic State. But first I decided to kill the school goat for practice,' the police quoted the boy as saying. The attempt on the animal has parallels with another ISIS inspired attack in suburban Kawasaki, adjacent to Tokyo, earlier last month. Like the chief suspect in the Kawasaki murder, the goats' assailant was also a dropout, according to the police, and a 'hikikomori' a shut-in - common among the young in Japan. One of the three high school boys charged with stabbing a 12-year-old boy to death in Kawasaki proclaimed himself and the rest of his 'team' as the 'Kawasaki State' - following the same naming pattern as the terrorist organization ISIS. The gang terrorised other students in the port city declaring: 'We're above the law. We run by our own rules. We are Kawasaki State. If you go against us, we'll cut off your head while you're still alive!' Punishment: Police said the goat's assailant will be charged with trespassing and is now in the hands of Tokyo's juvenile court . Anger: In light of the attack on the goat, some have blamed Japanese parents for not knowing how to control their children's internet usage . The three are due to be tried for murder in a juvenile court later this year. Both the Kawaski murder and the attempt on the goat have generated thousands of tweets in Japan calling for the death penalty for minors in the case of heinous crimes. The perpetrators in both cases are all minors - under 20-years-old in Japan - and are not subject to the country's capital punishment laws. 'Murder must be punished by the death penalty whatever the age,' was one reaction. Other blamed Japanese parents who do not know how to control their children's internet usage because they are allegedly technologically illiterate. Violent viewing: The computer of the boy who attacked the goat contained videos of hostage beheadings - including those of Japanese hostages Kenji Goto (left) and Haruna Yukawa (right) Police in the Tachikawa case confirmed that the boy's computer showed a long history of downloaded videos of Islamic State beheading hostages - and that the suspect had viewed them repeatedly.

The Homeland Security Department is investigating two senior Secret Service agents accused of crashing a car into a White House security barrier. Mark Connolly, the second-in-command on President Barack Obama's security detail, and George Ogilvie, a senior supervisor in the Washington field office, reportedly drove a government car into the barricades after drinking at a late-night retirement party last week. Secret Service spokesman Robert Hoback said recently appointed Director Joseph Clancy has been briefed on the March 4 incident and that Clancy has asked the Homeland Security Department's Inspector General's Office to investigate the incident. Officers on duty who witnessed the incident reportedly tried to arrest the agents and conduct a sobriety test, but a supervisor said to let the men go home. President Obama is aware of the incident and the investigation. Scroll down for video . An investigation has been launched to see if two Secret Service agents, including Mark Connolly (above), the second-in-command on President Obama's security detail, drove their car into a White House barricade . This after the men had reportedly been drinking at a late-night retirement party for Secret Service spokesman Edwin Donovan (above) The agency said the two agents have been reassigned to non-supervisory, non-operational jobs. The Washington Post reports that the men had been at a bar to celebrate the retirement of departing Secret Service spokesman Edwin Donovan. Connolly and Ogilvie have declined to comment, though it is believed that the incident was likely caught on Secret Service video, which feeds to the agency's command center. According to witnesses, the two men had their flashing lights on and were showing their badges as they tried to get through a section of the grounds that had been closed as a suspicious package was being investigated at around 10:30pm. It was then that they struck the barricade, after also driving through some security tape. It is illegal to use the flashing lights on a government vehicle without a security reason, or to drive a vehicle after consuming any alcohol. In 2013 a civilian who crashed into a barricade at the White House was chased by police and shot and killed. 'The Secret Service is aware of the allegations of misconduct involving two of our employees at the White House complex,' said Secret Service spokesman Brian Leary, a spokesman for the Secret Service. 'If misconduct is identified, appropriate action will be taken based on established rules and regulations.' Also commenting on the situation were House Oversight Chairman Jason Chaffetz of Utah and member Elijah Cummings of Maryland who said in a statement; 'The fact that this event involved senior-level agents is not only embarrassing but exhibits a clear lack of judgment in a potentially dangerous situation. 'The Committee as a whole remains committed to restoring the integrity of this elite agency and improving accountability at all staff levels.' The crash investigation is the latest embarrassment for the agency tasked with protecting the president. In the last six months, several top agency officials, including former Director Julian Pierson, have been forced out amid revelations of multiple, serious presidential security breaches. In September, a Texas man armed with a knife was able to climb a White House fence and run deep into the executive mansion before being apprehended. An internal investigation and an outside panel report both described serious problems within the agency. A four-member panel of former senior government officials concluded in a report released last year that the agency was too insular and starving for leadership. The panel recommended an agency outsider to replace Pierson, but Obama earlier this year tapped Clancy, a retired agent who led the agency on an interim basis after Pierson's ouster. January 2015: An employee of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency accidentally crashed a small drone on the South Lawn at the White House while operating it from a nearby apartment. The White House was put on lockdown for more than two hours after the crone hobbyist lost control of the device. October 2014: Dominic Adesanya jumped the fence and made it onto the North Lawn before being taken down by two security dogs and arrested by the Secret Service. September 2014: Omar J. Gonzalez, an Iraq army veteran with a knife in his pants, scaled the fence from the Pennsylvania Avenue side of the White House and made it inside. He overpowered an officer at the entrance and ran through most of the main floor and made it to the East Room before he was finally captured. The shocking security breach launched congressional hearings and led to Secret Service director Julie Pierson's resignation. Just 24 hours later college student Kevin Carr was arrested for trespassing after he parked his car at a security checkpoint outside the estate and refused to leave. And in the same month a man wearing a Pikachu hat and carrying a plush doll of the Pokemon jumped the fence and walked on to the North Lawn. August 2014: The White House went on lockdown after a toddler somehow managed to squeeze through the gates.

<s>[INST] The Homeland Security Department is investigating two senior Secret Service agents accused of crashing a car into a White House security barrier. Mark Connolly, the second-in-command on President Barack Obama's security detail, and George Ogilvie, a senior supervisor in the Washington field office, reportedly drove a government car into the barricades after drinking at a late-night retirement party last week. Secret Service spokesman Robert Hoback said recently appointed Director Joseph Clancy has been briefed on the March 4 incident and that Clancy has asked the Homeland Security Department's Inspector General's Office to investigate the incident. Officers on duty who witnessed the incident reportedly tried to arrest the agents and conduct a sobriety test, but a supervisor said to let the men go home. President Obama is aware of the incident and the investigation. Scroll down for video . An investigation has been launched to see if two Secret Service agents, including Mark Connolly (above), the second-in-command on President Obama's security detail, drove their car into a White House barricade . This after the men had reportedly been drinking at a late-night retirement party for Secret Service spokesman Edwin Donovan (above) The agency said the two agents have been reassigned to non-supervisory, non-operational jobs. The Washington Post reports that the men had been at a bar to celebrate the retirement of departing Secret Service spokesman Edwin Donovan. Connolly and Ogilvie have declined to comment, though it is believed that the incident was likely caught on Secret Service video, which feeds to the agency's command center. According to witnesses, the two men had their flashing lights on and were showing their badges as they tried to get through a section of the grounds that had been closed as a suspicious package was being investigated at around 10:30pm. It was then that they struck the barricade, after also driving through some security tape. It is illegal to use the flashing lights on a government vehicle without a security reason, or to drive a vehicle after consuming any alcohol. In 2013 a civilian who crashed into a barricade at the White House was chased by police and shot and killed. 'The Secret Service is aware of the allegations of misconduct involving two of our employees at the White House complex,' said Secret Service spokesman Brian Leary, a spokesman for the Secret Service. 'If misconduct is identified, appropriate action will be taken based on established rules and regulations.' Also commenting on the situation were House Oversight Chairman Jason Chaffetz of Utah and member Elijah Cummings of Maryland who said in a statement; 'The fact that this event involved senior-level agents is not only embarrassing but exhibits a clear lack of judgment in a potentially dangerous situation. 'The Committee as a whole remains committed to restoring the integrity of this elite agency and improving accountability at all staff levels.' The crash investigation is the latest embarrassment for the agency tasked with protecting the president. In the last six months, several top agency officials, including former Director Julian Pierson, have been forced out amid revelations of multiple, serious presidential security breaches. In September, a Texas man armed with a knife was able to climb a White House fence and run deep into the executive mansion before being apprehended. An internal investigation and an outside panel report both described serious problems within the agency. A four-member panel of former senior government officials concluded in a report released last year that the agency was too insular and starving for leadership. The panel recommended an agency outsider to replace Pierson, but Obama earlier this year tapped Clancy, a retired agent who led the agency on an interim basis after Pierson's ouster. January 2015: An employee of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency accidentally crashed a small drone on the South Lawn at the White House while operating it from a nearby apartment. The White House was put on lockdown for more than two hours after the crone hobbyist lost control of the device. October 2014: Dominic Adesanya jumped the fence and made it onto the North Lawn before being taken down by two security dogs and arrested by the Secret Service. September 2014: Omar J. Gonzalez, an Iraq army veteran with a knife in his pants, scaled the fence from the Pennsylvania Avenue side of the White House and made it inside. He overpowered an officer at the entrance and ran through most of the main floor and made it to the East Room before he was finally captured. The shocking security breach launched congressional hearings and led to Secret Service director Julie Pierson's resignation. Just 24 hours later college student Kevin Carr was arrested for trespassing after he parked his car at a security checkpoint outside the estate and refused to leave. And in the same month a man wearing a Pikachu hat and carrying a plush doll of the Pokemon jumped the fence and walked on to the North Lawn. August 2014: The White House went on lockdown after a toddler somehow managed to squeeze through the gates. May 2014: A man was arrested for indecent exposure after stripping off all his clothes when he was denied access outside the White House. June 2013: Joseph Reed crashed a driverless jeep filled with bullets, knives and two machetes into the Pennsylvania Ave. gate, hoping to create a diversion so he could spray paint a 'Don't tread on me' snake - a symbol sometimes associated with the Tea Party movement - on the side of the White House.

Joe Schmidt is poised to make just one change to his starting line-up for Wales on Saturday, fit-again Jamie Heaslip returning in place of Jordi Murphy. Injured on February 14 against France, Heaslip has timed his recovery from the three vertebrae fractured by Pascal Papé perfectly. It was anticipated that the problem, treated like a soft tissue injury, could come right in four weeks and the medics have been proved spot on, Heaslip taking part in full training all week to put himself in the frame to resume against Wales. Ireland head coach Joe Schmidt is likely to make one change to the side that beat England . Jamie Heaslip (centre) is expected to be back after injuring himself against France on February 14 . Jonathan Sexton (left) has recovered from the hamstring problem that he had for Ireland . Murphy will consider himself unlucky not to have held on, given his impressive show in helping subdue the vaunted English back row, but Heaslip has been true to his word after saying last Friday that he was ‘pretty confident’ he would be declared fit for the Millennium Stadium. Murphy is now expected to take a place on the bench at the expense of Tommy O’Donnell who demonstrated his worth for the second time this spring, coming on as an early replacement against England for the concussed Seán O’Brien and again not looking out of his depth. Elsewhere, with Jonathan Sexton shaking off his hamstring problem, and O’Brien and Jared Payne both coming through concussion protocols, Schmidt’s team will be along expected lines as they seek to set up a Grand Slam trip to Murrayfield on Saturday week. Jordi Murphy is expected to make way for the return of Heaslip against Wales on Saturday . Jack McGrath is set to keep his place in the Ireland team for the Six Nations game against Wales . It means Schmidt will continue to reward Jack McGrath for his consistently good form, keeping Cian Healy, who started his first game for Leinster in six months last Saturday, on the bench for the third Test in a row. There was concern about replacement out-half Ian Madigan’s control of the closing 25 minutes against England, but it is thought he will again be back-up to Sexton. Felix Jones is likely to be given the No 23 shirt once more, despite pressure from in-form Munster colleague Keith Earls.

(CNN)Reigning world champion Lewis Hamilton and teammate Nico Rosberg resumed where they left off last season as the 2015 Formula One season kicked off in Melbourne. The Mercedes duo, who took pole position in all but one of last season's qualifying sessions and won 16 of the 19 races, were dominant in first and second practice for Sunday's Australian Grand Prix. Rosberg, who won last year's GP at Albert Park, was fastest around the Melbourne street circuit on Friday, finishing 0.1 second ahead of Hamilton with Sebastian Vettel taking third spot for his new team Ferrari -- the German four-time world champion finished 0.715 seconds off the pace set by his compatriot. Vettel's Finnish teammate, Kimi Raikkonen was fourth, 1.1 seconds behind the lead with Williams' Valtteri Bottas and Daniel Kvyat, who was making his debut for Red Bull since his switch from Toro Rosso, finishing fifth and sixth respectively. "It was great to be back in the car at this awesome track," Rosberg said, the official Formula One site reported. "Today we have the evidence that our Silver Arrow is quick again and it was a great start for the team," he added. "It seems again that it's very close between Lewis and me and he is a great driver, so I need to nail the setup every time to come out on top. This year will be a big battle again against him, I'm sure. I'm looking forward to the first weekend of the new season with all the great fans out there." Hamilton, who was forced to retire from last year's race with engine trouble, was satisfied with his pace. "It feels great to be back on track and back into a race weekend. In general it's been a good first day," Hamilton said. "Today seemed to confirm that we have pretty good pace. But there are still other quick cars out there and we can't go into tomorrow's sessions not thinking that they will be close." The opening day's racing was somewhat overshadowed by an ongoing dispute between Sauber and the Swiss team's 2014 reserve driver Giedo van der Garde. The 29-year-old Dutchman recently started legal proceeding against the Swiss team claiming they had reneged on a promise to make him one of the lead drivers for the 2015 season. Van der Garde won the case held in a Swiss court earlier this month, with the decision being upheld by Supreme Court of Victoria in Australia on Tuesday after Sauber had appealed the original ruling. During practice Van der Garde could be seen in the Sauber garage wearing his race overalls, but he did not make an appearance on track as Marcus Ericsson and Felipe Nasr completing both practice sessions. Following the initial court ruling, team principal Monisha Kaltenborn said that changing drivers hours before a Grand Prix could be dangerous. "What we cannot do is jeopardize the safety of our team, or any other driver on the track, by having an unprepared driver in a car that has now been tailored to two other assigned drivers," she said, Formula1.com reported. Brazilian Nasr was the highest placed of the two finishing 11th while Swede Marcus Ericsson was 15th. Elsewhere there was also a uncertain start for McLaren who finished way down the pecking order. Jenson Button was 13th, almost four seconds off the pace for the CNN-sponsored team while teammate Kevin Magnussen, who was deputizing for the absent Fernando Alonso, was 16th following second practice. Local favorite Daniel Ricciardo completed just nine laps of practice after his Red Bull suffered engine failure. Qualifying for Sunday's race gets underway on Saturday.

Spy chiefs have been told by MPs to recruit middle-aged mothers because they are 'emotionally intelligent' and skilled at relationships. The Intelligence and Security Committee said MI5, MI6 and GCHQ should start advertising on the Mumsnet website. An inquiry by the MPs and peers on the committee found that action was needed to break through the 'permafrost' of middle-aged men dominating the ranks of the intelligence agencies who have a 'very traditional male mentality and outlook'. Hermione Norris plays a former MI6 officer - called Ros Myers - who joins an MI5 counter-terrorism division in the TV show Spooks . Across the three agencies, women make up 37 per cent of the workforce but hold only 19 per cent of the most senior roles. Labour's Hazel Blears, who sits on the ISC, said yesterday that recruiting a greater number of women would make the security services better at their job. She highlighted the particular skills mothers have in building relationships – a vital talent for spies trying to recruit informants. 'Women who have had children and brought their families up, they have valuable life experience,' the former Home Office minister said. The dominance of men, by contrast, 'can reinforce a management culture which rewards those who speak the loudest or are aggressive in pursuing their career', she said. Women deliver a 'more consultative, collaborative approach'. Labour MPs Hazel Blears said more women spies were needed . Mrs Blears said: 'If all intelligence professionals are cut from the same cloth – sharing similar backgrounds and characteristics – then they are likely to share 'unacknowledged biases' that will circumscribe both the definition of problems and the search for solutions.' According to the inquiry, her view that women can make for a better working environment for spies was backed by Sir Iain Lobban, the former director of GCHQ, the listening agency. 'I find that the discussions are deeper, I think they are more emotionally intelligent and, if you like, I think there is more intuition in the room,' he said. Mrs Blears said the need for MI6 officers to be able to deploy abroad – sometimes at short notice – could be a problem for women with children. She added: 'There is a bit of testosterone in the system that says, 'Tickets, money, passport – we all have to get there'. And if you've got children, finding 24-hour childcare is often very difficult.' Mrs Blears also revealed that the BBC TV drama Spooks had made it harder for MI5 to recruit women . A string of its female characters met a grisly end, such as being blown apart trying to rescue a Home Secretary from a bomb. Daniel Craig and the Italian actress Monica Bellucci pose during a photocall on location for the shooting of the 24th James Bond movie 'Spectre' in Rome . In a report out today the ISC will call for a number of reforms to be introduced within the next 12 months across the agencies, including culture change, help for women who have had children to stop them being sidelined and career advice. Targeted recruitment should also be carried out, including through websites such as Mumsnet, it recommends. Ms Blears said: 'Changing the culture is the one area that is most difficult to articulate and, crucially, to take action on, but if you want change, that is where to start. I’d make a great spy. I go totally unnoticed everywhere I go, but I have a keen eye for detail. Nobody suspects a woman in mum boots of anything underhand. If they need someone whose special skill is getting melted chocolate down her dog-haired jumper and not noticing, I’m their woman. I’ve always said that a crack team of Mothers could knock most governments into a cocked hat. I would LOVE to be a spy. And no one would suspect me. I am too boring and frumpy. Well I’m not signing up. I’ve watched Spooks. Everybody I get attached to dies a horrible death. 'It is clear to us there are those at middle management level - referred to by some people as 'the permafrost' - who have a very traditional male mentality and outlook. 'This can reinforce a management culture which rewards those who speak the loudest or are aggressive in pursuing their career and does not fully recognise the value of a more consultative, collaborative approach. 'We therefore recommend that there is a real focus on identifying and tackling the barriers that can exist at middle management level, so that women and men can fully achieve their potential in a supportive team ethos.' The Committee hopes that this report and the specific recommendations it contains will galvanise support for, and lead to further concerted efforts to create, a more gender diverse workforce in the agencies.' Former US Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, who conducted a similar investigation into women in the CIA, said improving diversity would help in the response to threats to national security. She said: 'As Ms Blears rightly says diversity should be pursued - not just on legal or ethical grounds, important as these are in their own right - but because it will result in a better response to the range of threats that threaten national security. 'Much of what is said in this report echoes and reinforces my own work on the director's advisory group on women in Intelligence at the CIA. 'I am sure we will all benefit from close cooperation on these vital issues between our two countries.'

(CNN)Rubén García Villalpando was supposed to arrive home from work on a Friday evening in February. But he never again pulled into the driveway of the home in suburban Dallas where he lived with his wife and four children. The 31-year-old welder died that night after a police officer shot him twice in the chest. Villalpando was unarmed, but in early reports about the shooting, police said an altercation erupted after he disobeyed an officer's commands during a traffic stop. It wasn't until hours after the shooting that his wife says she got a call from police, telling her what had happened. Now, questions swirl through Marta Romero's mind. How will their children grow up without a father? Will authorities take the case seriously or toss it aside because of her husband's immigration status and the fact that the man who opened fire was a police officer, not a civilian? And what happened that night to make something so horrible happen? "If my husband had killed a police officer, he would be in jail," she said. "But since it was the opposite, will they just leave it this way? Because an officer killed a man, because he killed an illegal and nothing more? What are a human's rights then? Now an animal gets more rights than a man." Villalpando is one of three Mexican nationals killed in U.S. police shootings in the past month, sparking sharp criticism from Mexico's Foreign Ministry and a call for the U.S. Justice Department to investigate. Pressure for authorities to take a deeper look at the controversial case is also coming from north of the border. At a City Council meeting in Grapevine, Texas, last week, Romero and her children were among a group holding signs that said "Justice for Ruben" and chanting, "Hands up! Don't shoot!" -- the phrase that started as a call to action after the shooting death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and has now become a rallying cry across the country in protests against police violence. Police said it's too soon to say exactly what happened that night. Investigators have interviewed dozens of witnesses and plan to share their findings with prosecutors. No charges have been filed. "I do not know now whether to believe in the authorities here or not," Romero said, "because if a police officer acted like this, what can another official do? I don't know. I want to trust them, because they are the ones who are taking care of us in this city. But I don't know what they can do." The case already has one piece of evidence that wasn't available to investigators looking into Brown's death: a police cruiser dash cam video. But police haven't released it to the public. "There will be more information released as the investigation continues. This additional information may shed more light on Mr. Villalpando's actions that night," police and city officials in Grapevine said last week. "We look forward to the time that the community can review the dash cam video of this incident, which we believe will answer many questions and correct some misconceptions about this incident." Villalpando's family members said they've seen the video, and even though it doesn't show the shooting, they said it's clear there was no good reason for the officer to open fire. Villalpando was unarmed, they said, had his hands in the air and did nothing to threaten the officer who stopped him. It all started, police say, when a burglar alarm went off February 20 at a business in Grapevine. Officer Robert Clark of the Grapevine Police Department spotted Villalpando's car in the area and started to follow him. Soon, according to police, the pursuit turned into a high-speed chase, with the officer following Villalpando from Grapevine into the neighboring town of Euless, Texas. A Grapevine Police statement released after the shooting said the dash cam video shows Villalpando's car "weaving through and around the heavy traffic and driving onto the highway attempting to evade Officer Clark." Eventually, Villalpando pulled over. His family said they believe he didn't stop for police right away because he was scared. He was an undocumented immigrant who had lived in the United States for 15 years and he knew any encounter with police could end with him getting deported and separated from his children, Romero said. U.S. President Barack Obama's announcement last fall that undocumented immigrant parents of U.S. citizen children could be eligible for work permits as part of a new executive action gave them hope, but also made them even more nervous about making sure they steered clear of trouble until the paperwork came through, she said. "He was nervous. He knew that to have problems with the authorities was serious. ... We couldn't have a criminal record," she said. "That is what he had in mind. What is going to happen to me now? Now I am not going to be OK. They are going to deport me." Fernando Romero said it was jarring to hear what Villalpando says in the video as he gets out of the vehicle. "My brother-in-law is out of the car with his hands up," he said, "and the first thing he asks is, 'Are you going to kill me?'" There's no sound of any fighting or altercation, but what you do hear, he said, is the profanities the officer repeatedly shouts as Villalpando approaches with his hands up. It's hard to hear exactly what was said, according to Romero; the family believes the officer made a comment claiming Villalpando was drunk. Police in Euless, who are leading the criminal investigation into what happened, told CNN the video does contain foul language. The Grapevine Police dispute the family's assertion that Villalpando did nothing threatening, saying that "contrary to clear instructions" he continued to walk toward the officer after being told repeatedly to stop. But there's a key thing that's not shown on the video, police and the family said: the shooting itself. Still, Fernando Romero said the sound of gunshots is clear, piercing through the roar of rush-hour traffic. His sister, Villalpando's widow, was so devastated after seeing the video he had to carry her out of the police station. Grapevine Police said the video shows the officer did everything he could to keep the situation under control until backup arrived. "We believe the dash-cam video, as well as information that has already been in the media, clearly demonstrates that Officer Clark was doing everything in his power, including the use of strong language, to keep Mr. Villalpando at a safe distance until backup arrived and an arrest [was] safely accomplished," Sgt. Robert Eberling said in a written statement released Thursday. "Members of the media have also been diligent in reporting some of the possible explanations for Mr. Villalpando's actions on the night of February 20, including a previous high-speed chase and a prior arrest for DWI, and a fear that he would be deported. Officer Clark had no way of knowing Mr. Villalpando's nationality at the time the traffic stop was initiated and it may not have been evident on a highway in the late evening." Marta Romero said her husband made a mistake when he didn't stop when the officer tried to pull him over. But she said he was trying to cooperate and turn himself in. "He was painted like a criminal who was involved in a robbery and had assaulted an officer, and in the video you don't see any of those things," she said. "You see the opposite, a man who is scared, who is simply trying to calm the situation, who sees that the police officer has a weapon in his hands." Now she said, she's seeking justice, hoping the police officer will face the appropriate charges for killing her husband. But she knows the family's search for answers won't be easy. In addition to the doubts swirling in her head, she is faced with questions from her children, even as she tries to explain to them that their father won't return. The most devastating of all, she said, is, "Mommy, when is my Papa going to wake up?" Police in Euless said they're also asking plenty of questions. Investigators have interviewed more than two dozen witnesses and are searching for more people who might have seen what happened, Euless Police Lt. Eric Starnes said . Clark, who's worked for the Grapevine Police since May 2014, is on administrative leave pending the investigation. Grapevine Police did not respond to CNN's request to speak to Clark about the incident. The burglar alarm that spurred the officer's initial response, police later said, turned out to be false. As for the video,Grapevine Police said they still want the public to see it, but for now, they're holding off on releasing it because prosecutors have asked for evidence not to be released to the public while an investigation is pending. "While we understand the interest of the community in the requests to release the video, we must balance those needs with the direction from the District Attorney's Office and the respect for the judicial process," police said Thursday. "We recognize that much of the sentiment being expressed is based on the understandable grief concerning Mr. Villalpando's death. We appreciate the support of our citizens and the fact that they are keeping an open mind and waiting for the results of a complete and thorough investigation."

Gary Cahill insists Harry Kane is ready to start for England against Lithuania in their Euro 2016 qualifier on Friday. The absence of Daniel Sturridge, withdrawn from the squad with a hip injury, has boosted the Tottenham striker’s chances of being included in the first eleven. Cahill has faced Kane three times playing for Chelsea this season and was given a torrid time by the forward when he scored twice in Spurs’ 5-3 win on New Years' Day. Harry Kane could cap his first England squad call-up with a starting place against Lithuania on Friday night . England defender Gary Cahill (right) believes Kane would be ready to start for the Three Lions if selected . Kane trained with the England senior squad for the first time at St George's Park on Tuesday morning . Asked how Kane was fitting into training after getting his first call-up to the national squad, Cahill replied: ‘Really good. He’s been a real handful every time I’ve played against him. He’s a fantastic talent, not just holding the ball up but running in behind defenders. For me he’s got all the attributes a striker needs. ‘He scored a hat-trick just before his first meet-up with the England team is ideal so his confidence will be sky high. He’s still a young boy and it’s his first time in the squad. It’s always a bit daunting.’ Kane, still only 21, scored a treble against Leicester at the weekend to take his tally to 29 in all competitions, joint-top Premier League scorer with Diego Costa on 19 goals. Wayne Rooney and Danny Welbeck are both available, but Cahill is confident Kane will be ready if England manager Roy Hodgson decides to throw him in. ‘That’s down to the manager,’ he added. ‘We’ve got top strikers here. They’re all chomping at the bit to play, all good enough to play from the start, and Harry’s in that bracket. ‘He’s in top form in the league. To score a hat-trick leading up to your first senior call up is fantastic. I’m sure he feels he’s ready to play. It’s down to the manager, whatever he decides.’ Kane has scored 29 goals in all competitions for club side Tottenham Hotspur this term . Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick echoed Cahill’s sentiment and has also backed Kane to have a bright future in the England senior team. He said: 'I think the progress he has made has been sensational from the start of the season to the level that he is at now. He has gone up two or three levels and the thing that has impressed me most about him is that as the spotlight has grown and expectations have grown he has grown and his performances have improved and improved and that is a really good sign. It by no means looks like this is a one off season. He looks like the real deal. I am sure he has a big big future ahead of him. ’The options are frightening, whoever plays whether it’s Sturridge, Welbeck, Wayne, Raheem Sterling, it's great to have those in the squad. We have an abundance of talent going forward. When you are at that level like the boys are they can play with each other no problem.’ Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick has tipped Kane to have a bright international future .

A Russian opposition leader was forced to write hand-scrawled notes to his aide the day before he was shot dead near the Kremlin after claiming he feared he was being bugged. Boris Nemtsov, a former deputy prime minister, was gunned down as he walked with his Ukrainian girlfriend, Anna Duritskaya on Friday night near Red Square. He was the most prominent opposition figure to be killed in Russia during Russian President Vladimir Putin's 15-year rule. Former Russian deputy prime minister and opposition leader Boris Nemtsov, who was shot dead near the Kremlin last week. Before his death he feared he was being bugged . In his final note before his death, Mr Nemstov is claimed to have written about how he heard Russian paratroopers had been fighting in Ukraine. Pictured is the scene near to the Kremlin and Red Square after he was gunned down . Now it has emerged that the day before his death, Mr Nemtsov and close aide Olga Shorina were discussing a sensitive investigation he was preparing into Moscow's backing for separatist fighters in eastern Ukraine. But fearing that his conversations with Ms Shorina were being listened in on by the Kremlin, he resorted to writing instead of talking. In his final note, which has been shown to Reuters, Mr Nemtsov wrote: 'Some paratroopers from Ivanovo have got in touch with me. 17 killed, they didn't give them money, but for now they are frightened to talk.' Ms Shorina said: 'He did not want to say anything, just in case. He did not want to utter it out loud, which is why he wrote it down for me.' However, it has not been possible to independently confirm the authenticity of the handwritten note. Ms Shorina added that Mr Nemtsov has planned to publish one million copies of his report on Ukraine, in order to reach as wide an audience as possible. She explained that most of the material gathered for his report was from open sources, and that he had not been intending to reveal any explosive new information. However she said in the course of his research, he had been contacted by relatives of a group of Russian soldiers, who according to him has been in action in eastern Ukraine. He claimed they were the serviceman who were based in Ivanovo, a city 185 miles north east of Moscow, which houses units of the Russian military's 98th paratroop division. Mr Shorina added: 'He was maintaining contact with them. How he was maintaining contact with them, I don't know, he did not put me in touch with anyone.' Mr Nemtsov's mother, secretary and daughter pay their last respects at Mr Nemtsov's funeral. Ms Shorina added that Mr Nemtsov has planned to publish one million copies of his report on Ukraine . The aide said she and another Nemtsov associate, Ilya Yashin, would try to salvage the information Mr Nemtsov had been gathering and attempt to publish the report in a month. But as far as she was aware, he had only managed to write down a table of contents. She said that for previous reports, Mr Nemtsov had stored most of the information in his head, and would dictate it to her when he was ready. Meanwhile, Mr Yashin said he and Mr Nemtsov had spoken about the Ukraine report about a day and a half before his death. He said: 'He told me he had been in touch with relatives of Russian soldiers killed there and he was planning a trip to Ivanovo to talk to the parents of those killed soldiers. 'He said in the very near future he was going to assemble and put in order various evidence and documents directly proving the presence of the Russian military on the territory of Ukraine and, accordingly, (exposing) President's Putin's lies that there are no Russian servicemen there.' President Vladimir Putin has condemned the death of Mr Nemtsov, saying it was a shameful tragedy . Since last summer, reports have been circulating inside the country that many serving Russian troops have died in combat in eastern Ukraine, where the separatist war has killed more than 6,000 people. However, Moscow adamantly denies sending arms or troops to the region, saying any Russians fighting in Ukraine are volunteers. Mr Nemtsov's death came a week ago when after dining next to Red Sqaure, the 55-year-old was shot four times in the back. Putin has called his death a shameful tragedy, and the Kremlin has denied any involvement. Mr Nemtsov was part of a liberal opposisition in Russia and was almost never given any air time on state-run television and radio. In a campaign over many years to expose what he saw as Putin's misrule, Mr Nemtsov had previously published eight reports, including investigations into alleged corruption surrounding last year's Sochi Winter Olympics and into assets owned by the president and his circle .

A 61-year-old soldier says he has been kicked out of the army because he is 'too old' - even though he can still run a mile-and-a-half in just ten minutes.

The sergeant, who is an amateur boxer and has won cross country honours for the army, also claims that he is fitter than most men half his age. Scroll down for video .

'I have a lifetime working in fitness, I feel I have so much to give in an era where fitness and obesity is a growing problem. 'The army does not exempt people on gender, ethnicity or religion but it discriminates against age.'

Beijing (CNN)Native to a remote region of China, this tiny mammal, known as the Ili pika, doesn't know it's a member of an endangered species -- and neither do most people. Rarer -- and some would argue cuter-- than the panda, there are less than 1,000 of these teddy bear-like creatures living in the Tianshan mountain range in the Xinjiang region of northwestern China, says conservationist Li Weidong. Li discovered the pika, formally known as Ochotona iliensis, in 1983 and named it after his hometown, Ili. Last July, Li spotted and photographed the elusive creature for the first time since the early 1990s. He estimates its numbers have declined by almost 70% since its discovery. "I discovered the species, and I watched as it became endangered," he told CNN. "If it becomes extinct in front of me, I'll feel so guilty." In 2008, the animal was listed as endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature but there's no official organization or team dedicated studying or protecting it, according to Li. The mammal, only 20 centimeters long, lives on sloping bare rock faces and feeds on grasses at high elevations. Li says the pika's habitat has been affected by global warming. Due to rising temperatures, glaciers have receded and the altitude of permanent snow has risen in the Tianshan mountains, forcing the pikas to gradually retreat to mountain tops, Li said. Ili pikas were originally found at elevations between 3,200 to 3,400 meters, he said. Now they have retreated to elevations of 4,100 meters. "They have nowhere else to retreat," he added. It's also a solitary animal and is not as vocal as other pika species, so if predators are near, Ili pikas are not able to alert each other, Li said. Disease may also be a factor in its decline. In 1983, when Li first came across the mammal, nobody knew what it was. Two years later, Li found another two and it was declared a new species. In the decade following, Li and his colleagues conducted a number of studies, including a census at 14 different sites. However, in 1992, Li left Ili to work with Xinjiang Academy of Environmental Protection in the regional capital Urumqi. No studies were conducted on Ili pika in the following decade. No one saw the pika, either. In 2002 and 2003, Li, with a team of volunteers, conducted a fresh census. Despite spending 37 days searching the mountains for the pikas on seven separate trips, they came up empty handed. However, by analyzing droppings and snow tracks, Li, along with Arizona State University biologist Andrew Smith, was able to conclude that the Ili pika population had seen a dramatic decline. Together they calculated that there might be 2,000 mature animals, down from 2,900 in the early 1990s. The research, published in 2005, recommended that the animal should be listed as endangered. In 2007, Li retired early to throw himself into searching for the pika. Last year, he organized a group of 20 volunteers to conduct another survey with infrared cameras. This time, on the second day of the field trip, they finally spotted a pika, who jumped and stepped over Li's feet while he was trying to photograph it. The volunteers dubbed it a "magic rabbit." They concluded that there were fewer than 1,000 Ili pikas, said Li. "This tiny species could be extinct any time," he said. "They don't exist in the sites where they used to be anymore." Li funds the research with himself, along with donations and occasional grants from organizations like the World Wide Fund for Nature. He says he has spent more than $32,000 of his own money over the past three decades and he has to raise funds to pay for gas. But what upsets Li most isn't the lack of funding. It's the lack of official recognition for the Ili, and other pikas' plight. The Ili pika isn't included on China's List of Wildlife under Special State Protection -- part of the country's 1988 Wildlife Protection Law. The Department for Wildlife and Forest Plants Protection, under the Ministry of Forestry, said it was in the process of updating the list but declined to give any further details. Li and his volunteers have been calling for the establishment of a nature reserve to help protect the animal. "I'm almost 60, and soon I won't be able to climb the Tianshan Mountains," he said. "So I really hope that an organization will have people study and protect the Ili Pika."

There are less than 1000 Ili pikas in existence, says Li Weidong . It was photographed for the first time in two decades last year .

(CNN)There were 10,000 runners and walkers at the Rodes City 10K on Saturday. Asia Ford was among the last. But a photo of her finish has caused a sensation online, thanks to a police officer who kept her going when she was about to give up. The race in Louisville, Kentucky, was another milestone for Ford, who has lost 217 pounds in her quest to live a healthier life for her children. According to CNN affiliate WAVE-TV, Ford trained for months for the event. But around mile 5, breathing became a challenge. "I messed up and forgot to eat this morning," she wrote on her Facebook page, adding that she was still recovering from a bout of pneumonia. As she struggled to finish, to move forward and to catch her breath, her son Terrance stepped in to offer a supporting hand. Emergency medical service crew weren't far behind, just in case. But Ford wouldn't let breathing problems or an empty stomach hold her back. Louisville police Lt. Aubrey Gregory was impressed. "The EMS guys got out to check on her, and she said I'm not stopping, I'm not stopping," Gregory told WAVE-TV. "So I said I'm not going to let her stop, we're going to do this together. So I got out and I grabbed her hand. I had to meet this inspirational woman." Flanked by her son and the lieutenant, Ford walked the remaining 1.2 miles. Photos show her face twisted in a grimace, Lt. Gregory leaning toward her, talking about health, trying to keep her mind off the pain. "I almost had a slip up with my breathing," Ford wrote on Facebook, "but a police officer by the name of Mr Gregory got out and took my hand to finish the race with my baby and I and WE MADE IT!!!" Ford's story has racked up well north of 1 million likes on Facebook. In the comments, people shared notes of encouragement and congratulations for Ford. "As someone who has also lost 200lbs...I know how HARD you worked for this wonderful moment," wrote Jennifer Bruce. Many praised the officer for helping and for caring. "Now that's community service," opined one commenter. Others noted that this is a welcome good news story, especially after a spate of high profile police shootings. Ford's son Terrance expressed a similar sentiment to WAVE-TV, saying "with all the stuff that's going on with police it's nice to know there good people out there." Terrance also said his mother's tenacity "makes me push harder to do the things I want to do in life." As for Lt. Gregory, he and Ford will be honored by Louisville's mayor for "health and compassion." "It was a great moment," the officer told WAVE-TV, "and I'm glad she let me be a part of it."

An elderly widow has been evicted from her home of 46 years because her son could not afford to pay the mortgage. Pensioner Mary Heywood, 84, from Southampton, was forced to pack her belongings and leave her house after her son, Philip, could not afford the mortgage repayments on the home.

German playmaker Mesut Ozil has called on his Arsenal team-mates to believe they have what it takes to produce their own miracle result in Monte Carlo on Tuesday night. The Gunners' hopes of progress to the quarter-finals of Europe's elite club competition are all but over following a disappointing 3-1 defeat in the first leg at the Emirates Stadium last month. No team has recovered from more than a single-goal deficit going into an away leg in the Champions League era. Mesut Ozil believes Arsenal can beat Monaco by three goals to reach the Champions League quarter finals . No club have ever overturned such a deficit, but the German says his team should take heart from recent form . Arsenal were in fine form to beat West Ham on Saturday, with Olivier Giroud playing a part in all three goals . Ozil says the Gunners can carry their momentum into the midweek tie and progress past Monaco . Monaco beat nine-man Bastia 3-0 in Ligue 1 on Friday night to extend their formidable defensive record with only seven goals conceded from the last 22 games. Leonardo Jardim's side did not let in a goal in three home ties during the Champions League group stages, but despite all the odds being stacked against the Barclays Premier League side Ozil feels Arsenal are well worth a gamble. 'When you believe in yourselves, a positive energy grows that you can achieve your aims. In football, things that may look unlikely can happen. I know that if we believe in ourselves and utilise our potential, we can still go through,' Ozil told Arsenal Player. 'We need to score three goals and Monaco are a team that play defensively, but we have to take initiative and score the first goal as quickly as possible to boost our confidence. Ozil and Giroud cut a dejected figure while Arsenal were being beaten at home by Monaco last month . The Gunners will need to overturn a two-goal deficit against a team who rarely concede . But Ozil is confident that they have enough going forward, and can win if they seize the early initiative . 'It is going to be difficult to score three times because they have defended well in the tournament so far, but if you look at our past matches and the way we played against Manchester United (in the FA Cup quarter-final) last week, I think there's a chance we can still progress. 'When you look at the Manchester United game, we controlled it and deserved to win the game, that just shows that if we convert what the manager encourages us to do into the games, we can achieve a lot.' Ozil added: 'We know the quality we have in our team - there are world-class players here. 'Look at our options in attack, where a variety of players can and do score goals. That's a positive for us and we will make sure to give everything in Monaco to advance to the next round.' Ozil has returned from three months out with a knee injury looking a much-stronger player, covering plenty of ground. Ozil was taken off early on Saturday, along with Alexis Sanchez, to preserve them for midweek in Monaco . The German, who was out with injury for much of this season, has come back stronger and fitter than ever . The 26-year-old former Real Madrid midfielder feels he is benefiting from his new training regime. 'I wanted to be as fit as possible when I returned after my injury. I worked on the upper part of my body as well as paying attention to my nutrition,' he said. 'I underwent treatment to get myself fit as soon as possible and to prevent the injury from returning. I am on a good path now. 'I worked really hard and I think it shows in training and in matches that I am fresher. 'I am really happy to be back on the pitch and able to do what I most love.' Tuesday night will see Wenger return to the Stade Louis II for the first time since his successful spell in charge which saw them win the 1988 French league title and Coupe de France in 1991, as well as reaching the 1992 European Cup Winners' Cup final and semi-finals of the Champions League.

Arsenal trail Monaco 3-1 after Champions League last 16 first leg . The Gunners need to score at least three times in Monaco to progress . But Ozil insists that his team's good form means they should be confident . Arsenal breezed past West Ham 3-0 at home on Saturday .

McAllen, Texas (CNN)For residents of this town just across the bridge from Mexico, it's hard to understand how a Washington political fight could end up threatening the livelihood of people charged with securing the border. "What incentive do they have to keep protecting us if they're not getting paid?" asked Cecilia De La Cruz as she sat at a coffee shop with a friend. "It is troubling." The latest example of congressional dysfunction has real world implications here, where thousands of agents monitor the U.S. border with Mexico. The agents, along with other employees vital to national security such as TSA screeners, will have to show up to work without being paid if Congress misses a Friday deadline to keep the Department of Homeland Security funded. Thousands of other agency workers will be furloughed. The employees are caught up in a fight over immigration policy. Republicans want to tie funding for the department to legislation that would roll back President Barack Obama's immigration executive orders -- a nonstarter for Democrats. The battle reached a fevered pitch last week when Congress narrowly missed a deadline to avoid a partial DHS shutdown, giving themselves an extension until March 6 to broker a deal. Speaker John Boehner could try to avert another showdown by holding a vote as early as Tuesday on a DHS bill that doesn't touch Obama's immigration order. But the political intrigue isn't registering for some residents here. Angelea Remorin, a nurse who works nights at a hospital, said she wasn't concerned yet because she hadn't read or heard anything about the potential shutdown. "Me, personally, I peek into the news every now and then, but it's things like ISIS, you know, those big headline things, that I look at on the news," she said. "None of my friends have been talking about (the shutdown), and I haven't been keeping up with it." At the coffee shop with De La Cruz, Ronaldo Delacruz said he'd heard of the potential shutdown but didn't feel unsafe. "I don't know what's going to necessarily happen to the department itself," Delacruz said. "I don't know how that's going to affect the protection of the border or border patrol, but I guess we're going to find out." Marco Solis said he was mad after hearing that Congress agreed to keep DHS running for only a few days. He said he wonders why lawmakers don't realize how their decisions affect local areas. "They're a bunch of incompetent men who just can't figure it out," he said. "And I know not all of them are men, but say predominantly, old white men screwing up this country." Local employees of the Department of Homeland Security stationed along the border said they weren't allowed to speak to newsgroups on the record because of orders directly from Washington. But speaking without attribution, they did express frustration with Congress for defunding their department in 2013 as part of the broader government shutdown and possibly again later this week if a longer term funding bill isn't passed. The agents argued they have families to feed and mortgages to pay, just like anyone else. Chris Cabrera, the vice president of the Local 3307 National Border Patrol Council, a union for border agents, echoed those sentiments. He said that in the McAllen area, about 2,000 agents would be affected by this funding bill. He said the problem is in Washington, where Congress won't feel the direct effect of a possible funding gap. As a border patrol agent for 13 years who also felt the effect of the 2013 shutdown, he remembers how it went down last time. "It's pretty much out of our hands" he said. "The sad part is that we're the football in this political game, and we're just caught in the middle getting tossed around while somebody is trying to push their own agenda, one way or the other." In the meantime, he said he's working with local agents to help them send letters to their mortgage companies to alert them of the possible problems because most of them are considered essential personnel and will have to continue working without a paycheck. For now, he said that's all that the union can do to help. "At some point, people will jump ship," he said. "I don't think there's going to be a rush for the door, but we will have some people that are gonna say 'Enough is enough. This is twice in two years, and I'm done with this.' " If a shutdown were to happen later this week, Cabrera said that nonessential personnel, such as administration positions in the department, would not report to work. Agents would continue to work securing the border, but depending on how long the shutdown lasts, they'd eventually have to work in some of the administrative positions as well to make up for employees who were furloughed. "Most likely what will happen is that they'll have to pull agents who do frontline work, processing work, or stuff in the station," he said. "They're going to have to backfill them -- you know somebody has to answer the phones at the front of the building." He added that he believes the cartels in Mexico are keeping up with American news so that they can take advantage in case DHS does shut down. "They know," Cabrera said about anyone across the border hoping to bring people or drugs. "They scout us when our shift changes. They know everything that's coming along. And when they see stuff like this, when it hits the media, they start mobilizing." McAllen Mayor Jim Darling agreed and said he believes cartels and gangs are more tuned in about what's going on in Washington than his own constituents. "I would think there's Gulf Cartel guys listening to Washington right now," he said. "If they think there's a porous border, they're going to come and make some money." Darling says that Washington's actions have a "ripple effect" across the country, of which they should be more aware and considerate. "I don't know about you, but I seriously doubt a congressman can go without a paycheck," he said. "It's a bipartisan problem, and they have to come up with a bipartisan solution, and they're not."

The political battle in Washington has real economic implications for McAllen, Texas . The border town is home to people who depend on their paychecks from their Homeland Security jobs .

For now, he said that's all that the union can do to help. "At some point, people will jump ship," he said. "I don't think there's going to be a rush for the door, but we will have some people that are gonna say 'Enough is enough. This is twice in two years, and I'm done with this.' " If a shutdown were to happen later this week, Cabrera said that nonessential personnel, such as administration positions in the department, would not report to work. Agents would continue to work securing the border, but depending on how long the shutdown lasts, they'd eventually have to work in some of the administrative positions as well to make up for employees who were furloughed. "Most likely what will happen is that they'll have to pull agents who do frontline work, processing work, or stuff in the station," he said. "They're going to have to backfill them -- you know somebody has to answer the phones at the front of the building." He added that he believes the cartels in Mexico are keeping up with American news so that they can take advantage in case DHS does shut down. "They know," Cabrera said about anyone across the border hoping to bring people or drugs. "They scout us when our shift changes. They know everything that's coming along. And when they see stuff like this, when it hits the media, they start mobilizing." McAllen Mayor Jim Darling agreed and said he believes cartels and gangs are more tuned in about what's going on in Washington than his own constituents. "I would think there's Gulf Cartel guys listening to Washington right now," he said. "If they think there's a porous border, they're going to come and make some money." Darling says that Washington's actions have a "ripple effect" across the country, of which they should be more aware and considerate. "I don't know about you, but I seriously doubt a congressman can go without a paycheck," he said. "It's a bipartisan problem, and they have to come up with a bipartisan solution, and they're not."

The border town is home to people who depend on their paychecks from their Homeland Security jobs . </s>

Iowa mom Melody Lauer has a personal motto she is trying to pass on to others: 'If you have baby on one side, it’s best to have gun on the other.' The 30-year-old  mother-of-three from Des Moines and former gun shop worker has started a new safety class that claims to teach women how to carry a firearm and their child at the same time.

New satellite images taken above Syria have revealed the scale of the devastation in the country following four years of civil war. Schools, hospitals and refugee camps are seen destroyed in towns and cities such as Aleppo, Kobane, Homs and ISIS' de facto capital Raqqa since the country was torn apart in 2011. Initially a battle between various armed rebel groups and the Syrian regime forces, the Syrian Civil War has since descended into a conflict with hundreds of frontlines, as rebel groups fight among themselves and ISIS and Al Qaeda-backed terrorists seize vast swathes of land. Scroll down for video . Before: This photograph showing the area around Aleppo's old citadel was taken of November 21, 2010 - a year before the Syrian Civil War broke out . And after: On October 22, 2014 - less than four years after the above image was captured - the area around Aleppo's citadel is seen largely destroyed . Monument: This photograph taken on October 12, 2011 shows the elaborate shrine to ancient Islamic icons Uwais al-Qurani and Ammar Ibn Yasser in the northern Syrian city of Raqqa . Destroyed: The monument - which lies in ISIS-held territory - was sadly destroyed by militants in 2013 who said it distracted from the veneration of Allah. This photograph was taken on October 6, 2014 . The satellite images form part a UN report due for release tomorrow that will present analysis of the impact of four years of war on the Middle Eastern nation. UN investigators used their satellite program UNOSAT to gather the startling photographs which, according to an advance statement detailing the report, document 'indiscriminate attacks on civilian population, including barrel bombing, destruction of schools, hospitals, residential areas, markets, power plants and the vast cultural heritage of Syria.' Comparing images taken shortly before the start of the war in 2011 with those captured in recent months, the UN has been able to show the geographical changes caused by relentless fighting between various groups, as well as the displacement of an estimated 6.5 million people. The images emerged as the Syrian air force has carried out a chlorine gas attack on a northern town, killing six people, according to activists, as Amnesty International said separate government air strikes on the Islamic State 'capital' could amount to war crimes. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights and the Local Co-ordination Committees said gas attacks on the town of Samrin injured dozens more people. Historic: This photograph dated September 4, 2011 shows the ancient Syrian border city of Dura-Europos, which was considered a UNESCO world heritage site . Target: Holes in the ground around Dura-Europos reveal the extent of looting in the area by April 2, 2014 . An opposition official in the area of this morning's chlorine gas release said there were two attacks - the first targeting rebels while the second hit a residential area. He said the six killed were members of the same family, including three children. A military official denied the claims and blamed rebels fighting to topple President Bashar Assad. Earlier, Amnesty International said air strikes on the ISIS stronghold of Raqqa on November 25 killed dozens of civilians. The human rights group said it had documented a series of Syrian government air strikes between November 11 and November 29 that killed up to 115 civilians - including 14 children -  in the city. Raqqa has been ISIS' seat since it declared a caliphate in areas under its control in Iraq and Syria. Amnesty International said the 'unlawful' killings violated international humanitarian law and some of the attacks could amount to war crimes. The London-based group said the air strikes included attacks on a mosque and a busy market 'crammed full of civilians' as well as some buildings not being used for military purposes. Clear: The satellite images form part a UN report due for release tomorrow that will present analysis of the impact of four years of war on the Middle Eastern nation . Ravaged: Schools, hospitals and refugee camps are seen destroyed in towns and cities such as Aleppo, Kobane, Homs and ISIS' de facto capital Raqqa since the country was torn apart in 2011 . Philip Luther, director of Amnesty's Middle East and North Africa programme, said: 'Syrian government forces have shown flagrant disregard for the rules of war in these ruthless air strikes. Some of these attacks give every indication of being war crimes. 'They have carried out repeated attacks on civilian areas without clearly identifying military targets, a blatant violation of the requirement to distinguish between civilians and military targets.' Syrian authorities said at the time that the attacks were meant to target IS members and bases, but Amnesty said the evidence it gathered shows that, in most cases, no military targets could be identified. On November 25, Syrian government forces bombed a number of civilian areas, striking a mosque, a busy market, shops, a transport hub, a storage facility and a residential building, Amnesty said. Mr Luther said: 'The residents of Raqqa already have to endure the reality of life under brutal IS rule. Punishing an entire civilian population simply because the city where they live is now under IS control can never be justified.'

Photos taken for new UN report show destruction of Syria's geography . Satellite images show the ruins of schools, hospitals and refugee camps . Cities such as Aleppo, Kobane, Homs and Raqqa appear largely destroyed . The UN will release its full report on the brutal Syrian conflict tomorrow .

Lynchburg, Virginia (CNN)Sen. Ted Cruz, the conservative firebrand from Texas, became the first Republican to announce his campaign for the presidency, and he spent Monday morning telling a crowd at the largest Christian university in the world to imagine what the country will be like when he takes office, and pitching his personal history as a key part of his campaign. "These are all of our stories," Cruz told the audience Monday, roaming around the circular stage at Liberty University, in Lynchburg, Virginia, opening his remarks by spotlighting his family history and his own path to Washington. "These are who we are as Americans. And yet for so many Americans, the promise of America seems more and more distant." Cruz drew on the past only to focus on the future, repeatedly and emphatically asking the Liberty University student audience to "imagine" the U.S. under conservative leadership -- laying out his vision for the country and a Cruz presidency. The senator from Texas, who burst into the national limelight with his staunch opposition to Obamacare and his willingness to shut down the federal government, presents a direct challenge to the expected bids of establishment Republicans such as Florida Gov. Jeb Bush -- candidates Cruz coyly refers to as the "mushy middle." Monday's event was the last part of a carefully coordinated media rollout, following Cruz's announcement of his candidacy in a 30-second video message posted on Twitter shortly after midnight on Monday, roughly 24 hours after the Houston Chronicle first reported his planned announcement. Ten thousand students from Liberty University crowded into the university's main arena for Cruz's announcement. The venue choice at this socially conservative campus aims to give Cruz an early boost among evangelical voters, who will be key to boosting presidential hopefuls in states like Iowa and South Carolina that have early nominating contests. It was a youthful crowd, as students are required to attend the University's tri-weekly convocation address. Not all in the audience were guaranteed Cruz supporters: Several attendees sported red "Stand with Rand" shirts, repping Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul, who is slated to announce his candidacy early next month. Jerry Falwell Jr., the university's president and son of its founder and evangelical icon, introduced Cruz as a senator who "has gone against the tide" and a "man of great character," all while stressing that the university does not endorse candidates for office. Falwell picked up on Cruz's assertion that millions of evangelical Christians did not vote in 2012, pointing out that "if any candidate can energize that group, it will make a huge difference in any national race." Asked after the speech how he prepared for the event, Cruz said he "spent some time in prayer" thinking about the message he wants to convey. "At the end of the day it's listening to the people about the vision for turning the country around," Cruz told CNN, adding that he was "incredibly" encouraged and inspired by the support. Cruz's announcement came on the five-year anniversary of the passage of the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare, which Cruz has fought in the Senate to repeal. Cruz marked the anniversary by pledging to repeal "every word" of the healthcare law as president. Cruz also jabbed at Common Core education standards -- which Bush supports -- and repeated his pledge to abolish the IRS, instead suggesting Americans could file their taxes on a postcard. And Cruz drew the longest and loudest applause from the audience when he prompted the audience to "imagine a President who stands unapologetically with the nation of Israel." Cruz's advisers envision a three-pronged strategy that focuses on dominating the tea party faction and competing in the libertarian and Christian conservative circles. A constant and vocal critic of the Obama administration, Cruz is perhaps best known for his stalwart fight against Obamacare in 2013, which led to a tense standoff between Democrats and Republicans and ultimately resulted in a 17-day government shutdown. The showdown was punctuated by Cruz's 21-hour speech on the Senate floor. While popular in conservative and tea party circles, Cruz has a long way to go in terms of broader support in the GOP base, according to public opinion polls. A CNN/ORC International survey conducted this month on the hypothetical Republican primary showed Cruz came in with 4% support among Republicans and independents who lean Republican. But the field is still relatively open, with the top contender -- Bush -- coming in at 16% support, followed by Scott Walker at 13%. But Cruz has relatively strong favorability numbers. According to a recent Quinnipiac University poll, he is viewed in a positive light by 45% of Republicans, compared with only 8% who don't have a favorable opinion of him. Still, 46% say they haven't heard enough about him to form an opinion. Jason Miller, an adviser to Cruz's campaign, confirmed that the campaign's fund-raising target is $40 million, and the campaign believes it can raise $1 million in the first week. Cruz this month finished an early-voting state tour to Iowa, South Carolina and New Hampshire -- and he's scheduled to return to New Hampshire on March 28 to speak at a brunch in Rockingham County. Depending on the Senate schedule this week, he could possibly make more early-state trips, according to advisers. After his speech Monday, he'll head up to New York for media appearances and a fund-raiser. Cruz developed a loyal following when he won his 2012 primary battle in Texas as a little-known candidate, forcing then-Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst into a surprise runoff and ultimately defeating the establishment Republican. Along with two other first-term senators who are expected to run for president (Rand Paul and Marco Rubio), Cruz will likely face questions over experience, an issue that Republicans brought up in 2008 against Barack Obama, who was also a first-term senator at the time. Before running for the Senate in 2012 -- his first campaign for public office -- Cruz was solicitor general of Texas and argued before the Supreme Court. He graduated from Princeton University and Harvard Law School. Born in Canada to a Cuban father and American mother, Cruz was a dual citizen until he renounced Canadian citizenship in 2014. He faced questions over whether he would qualify for the presidency, though law experts consider him a natural-born citizen because he was born to an American mother. Cruz was swarmed by students and reporters after he descended the stage and started to exit the arena. He took photos and signed autographs for about a half hour, as his team tried to escort him through the crowd. One girl who was raising money selling baked goods offered to give Cruz a dozen cupcakes for free but he pulled out his wallet and gave her $20. A pair of enthusiastic sisters shouted out to Cruz to tell him that, like his own daughters, they were also named Caroline and Catherine and were two years apart. "That's just cool," he said, as he gave them both high fives. "That is awesome." One student who said she was Hispanic said she and her whole family were behind him. "You have the Hispanic vote," she joked, then proceeded to start talking to him Spanish. While Cruz's father is Cuban, he's not fluent in Spanish. "We grew up speaking Spanglish. My grandmother would be like 'Nino, throw me the remote control'," he said This is who we are as a people. We got to tell that story," Cruz said. CNN's Adam Levy and Kevin Bohn contributed to this report.

This United Airlines regional jet was forced to make an emergency landing without a nose gear at an airport in Chicago, Illinois, Saturday afternoon after experiencing a mechanical problem, officials said. The GoJet plane, operated by the major US airline, was traveling from Grand Rapids, Michigan, to Chicago when the pilot informed passengers there was an issue with the aircraft's front landing gear. A few minutes later, the pilot announced that the plane would be performing an emergency landing at O'Hare International Airport. Incredibly, flight 3645 touched down safely with no nose gear at 3.24pm.

(CNN)Empathy. Confidence. Passion. These are the traits the next police chief in Ferguson, Missouri, will need to shrink the ocean of distrust between community and police. So says Cecil Smith. And maybe he should know. Smith is the police chief in Sanford, Florida, another community rocked by racial tensions and poor police-community relations after the high-profile shooting of a black teenager -- the 2012 death of Trayvon Martin. And if Smith's experience is any guide, it will take "a lot of prayer and a little goading" to convince someone to step into the job vacated this week by Chief Thomas Jackson. "That community, as we see, has been hurting and struggling for some time now," he says. And how: . -- The community remains deeply scarred by the events last year, after the August shooting death of unarmed African-American teenager Michael Brown by a white Ferguson Officer Darren Wilson, and the November decision by the St. Louis County Grand Jury not to charge Wilson, who later resigned. Occasionally violent protests and sometimes heavy-handed responses by police deepened divisions and distrust. -- The police department was already groaning under the epic weight of months of nearly constant protest and last week's release of a damning Department of Justice report that found evidence of discriminatory conduct on the part of Ferguson officials. -- Add to that the obvious fears facing officers following the shooting early Thursday of two police officers only hours after Jackson resigned. The decision for Jackson to step aside was a mutual one between the chief and city, Mayor James Knowles told reporters. He'll get severance and a year of health insurance and will turn the reins over to Ferguson police Lt. Col Al Eickhoff next week. The city will launch a nationwide search for a permanent replacement, Knowles said. "The City of Ferguson looks to become an example of how a community can move forward in the face of adversity. We are committed to keeping our police department and having one that exhibits the highest degree of professionalism and fairness," said Knowles -- who has himself been targeted by protesters demanding he resign. To get there, it might look to Sanford for guidance. There, trust in the police department bottomed out in the aftermath of the Trayvon Martin shooting. While no police officers were involved in the shooting, anger over their perceived failure to arrest the teenager's killer, George Zimmerman, pushed relations in the community to a boiling point, eventually resulting in the firing of Chief Bill Lee. Zimmerman eventually was arrested, and a jury acquitted him. Smith watched the chaos play out from Elgin, Illinois, where he was deputy police chief. A former boss in Illinois suggested he look at the job, so he traveled to Florida on his own time, getting to know the community and learning what divided residents and police. He still isn't sure how to explain why he took the job. "The first year, I was still wondering, was it a smart move?" Smith joked. But things are better now, he says. After taking the job, Smith made it a point of spending time "walking and talking" in Sanford, building relationships with community leaders and everyday residents. Inside the department, stepped up training in engagement and ethical policing. He also stepped up recruitment of African-American officers. "One of the things that's going on is we don't have people who look like us in the community," said Smith, himself an African-American. He handed out long-delayed promotions. And he even presided over a makeover, enlisting officers to help choose new uniforms. The new chief in Ferguson will likely need to do some of the same things, Smith says. Community leaders and other officials agree. "We need to deal with the culture issue here to make sure whoever is coming in behind Chief Jackson is not a new face and a new name on the same type of issues," Patricia Bynes, a Democratic committeewoman for Ferguson Township," told CNN Wednesday. "We need to seriously deal with the culture of the police department and the municipal courts and the way the city is run." New York police Commissioner William Bratton said there are two issues confronting the heads of police forces. There is the lack of trust on the community's part and the lack of confidence some officers have in their leadership. On the first issue, he said: "You need to be willing to embrace that there is a need to change." To police leadership consultant John Vanek, whoever takes over the Ferguson department will need to have the same leadership traits valued in boardrooms across the world -- the ability to form partnerships across organizational lines, to think differently, to turn failure into success and to do it all in a harsh media spotlight. But that's easier said than done. "There's going to be a lot of hostility in Ferguson for a long time," he said. So will the new chief need to be African-American to help defuse the racial tensions roiling the city? Here's the politic answer: Find the right candidate, regardless of race. "You want to find the best candidate to be police chief," said attorney Benjamin Crump, who has represented the families of both Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown. "But diversity is very important. It's very important that the police officers understand the communities, at least want to engage with members of the community they are going to be protecting and serving." "There's an old saying in the black community that everybody else is protected and served but we are policed," Crump said. "We don't want to be policed. We want to be protected and served as any American citizen." CNN's Nick Valencia contributed to this report.

NYPD commissioner: Chiefs need to embrace need for change . Ferguson might look to Sanford, Florida's experience when choosing a new chief . That city also had to find ways to heal divisions between community and police .

Zimmerman eventually was arrested, and a jury acquitted him. Smith watched the chaos play out from Elgin, Illinois, where he was deputy police chief. A former boss in Illinois suggested he look at the job, so he traveled to Florida on his own time, getting to know the community and learning what divided residents and police. He still isn't sure how to explain why he took the job. "The first year, I was still wondering, was it a smart move?" Smith joked. But things are better now, he says. After taking the job, Smith made it a point of spending time "walking and talking" in Sanford, building relationships with community leaders and everyday residents. Inside the department, stepped up training in engagement and ethical policing. He also stepped up recruitment of African-American officers. "One of the things that's going on is we don't have people who look like us in the community," said Smith, himself an African-American. He handed out long-delayed promotions. And he even presided over a makeover, enlisting officers to help choose new uniforms. The new chief in Ferguson will likely need to do some of the same things, Smith says. Community leaders and other officials agree. "We need to deal with the culture issue here to make sure whoever is coming in behind Chief Jackson is not a new face and a new name on the same type of issues," Patricia Bynes, a Democratic committeewoman for Ferguson Township," told CNN Wednesday. "We need to seriously deal with the culture of the police department and the municipal courts and the way the city is run." New York police Commissioner William Bratton said there are two issues confronting the heads of police forces. There is the lack of trust on the community's part and the lack of confidence some officers have in their leadership. On the first issue, he said: "You need to be willing to embrace that there is a need to change." To police leadership consultant John Vanek, whoever takes over the Ferguson department will need to have the same leadership traits valued in boardrooms across the world -- the ability to form partnerships across organizational lines, to think differently, to turn failure into success and to do it all in a harsh media spotlight. But that's easier said than done. "There's going to be a lot of hostility in Ferguson for a long time," he said. So will the new chief need to be African-American to help defuse the racial tensions roiling the city? Here's the politic answer: Find the right candidate, regardless of race. "You want to find the best candidate to be police chief," said attorney Benjamin Crump, who has represented the families of both Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown. "But diversity is very important. It's very important that the police officers understand the communities, at least want to engage with members of the community they are going to be protecting and serving." "There's an old saying in the black community that everybody else is protected and served but we are policed," Crump said. "We don't want to be policed. We want to be protected and served as any American citizen." CNN's Nick Valencia contributed to this report. [/INST] NYPD commissioner: Chiefs need to embrace need for change .

It is an incredible moment when, after hours of waiting, you finally get to see a whale swimming in the ocean. And wildlife photographer, Jon Cornforth, 43, managed an even rarer sighting when he witnessed two of the majestic mammals exploding out of northern Pacific Ocean together, before coming crashing down in unison. The rare event was documented off the coast of Hawaii and took place near the humpback whales' breeding grounds. In sync! The gigantic sea giants rose out of the water together, and crash into the waves in unison . Scientists still do not fully understand why 40-tonne whales choose to throw themselves out of the water- but why two would decide to leap into the air at the same time is a greater mystery still . Jon Conforth has been capturing humpback whales for 15 years and says he doesn't have time to think about a composition or change camera settings when witnessing the perfect breach . Cornforth said: 'When this double breach happened, I knew that I had just seen something special, but prayed that my camera had captured the moment. 'I was howling with joy as I quickly scrolled through my images and realised that magnitude of what I had just photographed. 'Keep in mind, that I was doing this while still motoring my small boat in heavy seas with several whales still very close by.' The photographer has been capturing humpback whales for 15 years and says he doesn't have time to think about a composition or change camera settings when witnessing the perfect breach. 'I don't have time to think about composition or change my camera settings,' he said. 'I simply do what I've become proficient at and point my camera and push the shutter button.' Although he may only see the leap unfold in a second, his camera is firing at 10 frames per second to get the detailed shot. Fun with friends! The whales frolic in the waves in unison, propelling themselves into the air to the delight of photographer Cornforth . Majestic: The sight of a humpback whale rising out of the waves is breathtaking for any onlookers . It is not been categorically proven by scientists why the sea giants propel themselves out of the water, though it has been suggested it is a form of social communication. Some say it is a form of warding off predators, with larger mammals creating a resounding smash as they hit the surface. Other explanations say it simply a way of removing parasites from their bodies. It is not categorically proven why whales breach out of the waters but some think it is ward off predators with the sound . Other suggestions for why they breach are to rid themselves of parasites and communicate with other whales . Female whales can often be seen nudging their calves to the surface in order to learn how to breach. Whatever the reason, the sight is still a breathtaking one, especially when you are metres away from the 40-tonne creatures.

Sierra Leone had a previous nationwide curfew in September at the height of the epidemic. Scroll down for video . Sierra Leone residents have been told to remain indoors until Monday in an effort to halt the spread of Ebola . Almost 25,000 people have been infected with the killer disease, pictured, which has claimed 10,000 lives .

The WHO said that that one-third of these cases were in the capital Freetown. As healthcare workers on the ground battle against the spread of the disease, two experimental vaccines against Ebola are now undergoing clinical trials in Liberia. A total of 600 people are being inoculated against the disease. Confirmed Ebola cases in Sierra Leone, pictured, seemed to be clustered near the country's west coast . An estimated 12,000 people have been infected by Ebola in Sierra Leone, pictured . The country's six million population have been told that the curfew could eliminate the disease from the country.

Dundee United star Paul Paton has launched an astonishing attack on Celtic as he accused the Parkhead club of having a long history of ‘manipulating’ people and situations for their own benefit. The frustrated Tannadice star claimed there have been ‘continual injustices’ across the three games between United and Celtic this month that have yielded six red cards - four for Jackie McNamara’s team. In the wake of the stormy 1-1 Scottish Cup draw at Tannadice, Celtic manager Ronny Deila and his captain Scott Brown both accused United kid Aidan Connolly of ‘diving’ to win his side a penalty. Paul Paton (right) believes Celtic 'manipulate people' and have been doing so for the past few years . Despite Deila calling on the SFA to take action, none was forthcoming but United were subsequently denied a penalty when Brown barged Ryan Dow in the League Cup Final, won 2-0 by Celtic at Hampden last Sunday. And after the 4-0 Scottish Cup replay win at Parkhead on Wednesday, Deila accused Ryan McGowan of endangering the career of Liam Henderson with a wild lunge. But the United camp felt the reaction of Celtic’s players may have influenced Calum Murray’s decision to send the Australian off. The Dundee United star and Ronny Deila have previous when they clashed at Tannadice in the quarter-final . And ahead of the fourth and final match between United and Celtic at Parkhead in the Premiership on Saturday, Paton appeared to accuse Celtic of heaping pressure on match officials. ‘Ronny Deila has an opinion on everything but I don’t really read too much into what he has to say or who he puts pressure on,’ said Paton. ‘But I think Celtic as a club can manipulate people more than Dundee United can. That kind of thing has been happening for years. The tough tackling midfielder goes up for a header with Celtic star Nir Biton in the cup final on Sunday . ‘We have seen injustices in the last few games we have played and that causes frustration. It feels that we do not get any decisions and that it is continual. ‘I saw things differently (to Deila). I don’t think Ryan McGowan deserved to get sent off as he clearly won the ball. I don’t know if I am being biased but it is a hard tackle but he clearly won the ball. ‘I don’t think there was much in it (but) they have made a lot of it. It looked like a good tackle to me but that is only my opinion.’ Ryan McGowan (right) was sent off for a tackle on Conor Henderson and angered Celtic's players . Paton’s sense of injustice was also stoked by the failure of referee Murray to hand a second yellow to Efe Ambrose for a foul on Nadir Ciftci at 1-0. He continued: ‘I thought he was lucky to stay on the park but we have seen it in the last few meetings that we don’t seem to get things like that going for us against Celtic. ‘How he stayed on the park I will never know. It was a clear yellow card. But when you come to places like (Parkhead) you never seem to get these decisions. ‘I don’t know if it is just coincidence but you saw last weekend in the League Cup Final we should have had a clear penalty. Paton believes Efe Ambrose (centre) should also have been sent off for a second bookable offence . ‘Then Efe Ambrose should have got sent off when we were on top in the game and it did not happen. Small things like that change games.’ Paton also defended himself after Celtic’s Anthony Stokes yesterday accused the United midfielder of catching him with a ‘sly elbow’. Stokes was sent off for retaliation but later said on Twitter: ‘I get a sly elbow in the face by someone that has nothing about them and get sent off, typical!’ But Paton pleaded his innocence, saying: ‘I have ran across him and I don’t know if he thinks I have meant to hit him but he has lashed out and caught me on the side of the face. ‘I stepped across him and I don’t know if I have caught him with my leg or my arm. I honestly don’t know but it was certainly not intentional. ‘But there’s no edge between the two teams. It’s been taken out of context as there were not really any bad challenges in the game. We come back to Parkhead on Saturday in the league with a clean slate.’

A drug addict who mugged frail pensioner Alan Barnes wept today as he heard lawyers will argue his attack was a 'hate crime'. Prosecutors say Richard Gatiss deliberately targeted his 4ft 6in, visually-impaired 67-year-old victim out of hostility towards the disabled. The cowardly attack on Mr Barnes, from Gateshead, Tyne and Wear, shocked Britain in January and a fundraising campaign to buy him a new home made £330,000 in just a few days. Alan Barnes - who suffers growth problems and is partially sighted - was attacked by drug addict Richard Gatiss (right) in January. Prosecutors today called for the offence to be categorised as a disability hate crime . Gatiss, 25, also of Gateshead, appeared briefly at Newcastle Crown Court via a videolink from Durham Prison today, where he is being kept in segregation for his own safety. He will be sentenced on April 2. The mugger sat hunched in his chair today as he followed proceedings and broke down in tears at one point. Nick Dry, prosecuting, said Gatiss struck in an area of sheltered accommodation for disabled and elderly people. He also made a partial admission to police that he knew of Mr Barnes prior to the attack. The court heard that, in Mr Barnes's opinion, he was attacked due to his disability. Mr Dry said if it was agreed that Gatiss specifically targeted Mr Barnes 'it can be inferred there is a general hostility towards people of disability'. That could mean Gatiss was guilty of a disability hate crime, which would aggravate the assault with intent to rob charge that he admitted last month. Mr Dry added: 'It is pure inference that is sought by the crown.' The attack on Mr Barnes sparked outrage around Britain and led to his neighbour, beautician Katie Cutler, organising a fund to help the 67-year-old . Donations flooded in from around the world and saw Mr Barnes given £330,000 to buy him a new home . But Judge Paul Sloan QC suggested the claim of a general hostility towards disabled people was 'hollow' and told the court the aggravating circumstances would be factored into the sentencing anyway. He said the prosecution must serve evidence to back up their claims within a week. Judge Sloan told Gatiss at the end of the 10-minute hearing he would continue to be remanded in custody and 'an immediate sentence of imprisonment is pretty well inevitable'. It has previously been said in court that Gatiss was trying to get money to buy legal highs when he mugged Mr Barnes. His victim was shoved over and broke his collar bone but Gatiss fled empty-handed when Mr Barnes called for help.

Disabled pensioner's mugging shocked Britain when it emerged in January . Partially-sighted 67-year-old knocked to the ground, breaking collar bone . Drug addict arrested for attack and admitted assault with intent to rob . Prosecutors now call for offence to classified as 'disability hate crime' Appeal to help victim raised more than £330,000 earlier this year .

He will be sentenced on April 2. The mugger sat hunched in his chair today as he followed proceedings and broke down in tears at one point. Nick Dry, prosecuting, said Gatiss struck in an area of sheltered accommodation for disabled and elderly people. He also made a partial admission to police that he knew of Mr Barnes prior to the attack. The court heard that, in Mr Barnes's opinion, he was attacked due to his disability. Mr Dry said if it was agreed that Gatiss specifically targeted Mr Barnes 'it can be inferred there is a general hostility towards people of disability'. That could mean Gatiss was guilty of a disability hate crime, which would aggravate the assault with intent to rob charge that he admitted last month. Mr Dry added: 'It is pure inference that is sought by the crown.' The attack on Mr Barnes sparked outrage around Britain and led to his neighbour, beautician Katie Cutler, organising a fund to help the 67-year-old . Donations flooded in from around the world and saw Mr Barnes given £330,000 to buy him a new home . But Judge Paul Sloan QC suggested the claim of a general hostility towards disabled people was 'hollow' and told the court the aggravating circumstances would be factored into the sentencing anyway. He said the prosecution must serve evidence to back up their claims within a week. Judge Sloan told Gatiss at the end of the 10-minute hearing he would continue to be remanded in custody and 'an immediate sentence of imprisonment is pretty well inevitable'. It has previously been said in court that Gatiss was trying to get money to buy legal highs when he mugged Mr Barnes. His victim was shoved over and broke his collar bone but Gatiss fled empty-handed when Mr Barnes called for help. [/INST] Disabled pensioner's mugging shocked Britain when it emerged in January .

A bridegroom who started a mass brawl on his wedding night by telling three teenage boys he could 'knock them out with one punch' has been jailed for three years. John Derick Sandham, 31, was at his reception at a pub in Holywell, Flintshire, when he launched an attack on a group of young friends also having a drink at the venue. The court heard how Sandham, who had swapped vows with his wife Clare just hours earlier, head-butted one victim before hitting him in the face with a glass or a bottle. John Derick Sandham, 31 (pictured left with wife Clare and right) has been jailed for three years after sparking a brawl at his wedding reception at a pub in Holywell, Flintshire, in August 2013 . Sandham, who had swapped vows with his wife Clare just hours earlier (pictured), launched the attack on three teeangers, head-butting one victim before hitting another in the face with a glass or a bottle . He then grabbed another of the teenagers by the throat, before hitting the third victim on the back of the head, Mold Crown Court was told. It came after he told the trio that he could 'knock them out with one punch'. Sandham had claimed he was acting in self-defence, telling the court: 'This was my wedding night. It is supposed to be the happiest day of my life and it was blighted by this.' But he was found guilty of the three assaults and sentenced to the three-year jail term. Sentencing Sandham, Judge Philip Hughes said: 'It was drunken violence against youths who had done nothing to warrant your aggression against them.' The court heard how the brawl broke out in August 2013 while 100 friends and family were marking the marriage at the Abbott's Arms in Holywell, North Wales. The defendant (pictured left and right) had claimed self-defence but he was found guilty of the three assaults and sentenced to the three-year jail term . The victims, who were aged 16 and 17, were not part of the wedding party. The court heard how the incident took place when Sandham went outside at the end of the night to say 'goodbye' to his guests. The defendant walked through the porch, where he was said to have asked the friends - who were 'having a laugh and messing about' - what they were saying. He then walked straight up to the group and grabbed one of them, before launching the furious attacks, the court heard. The brawl unfolded in the porch at the Abbot's Arms in Holywell, Flintshire (pictured), the court heard . The jury heard how one of the teeangers needed hospital treatment for cuts to his nose after being struck with the glass. He told the jury: 'We were just having a laugh. There were no issues. 'He turned around and asked what we were saying? We said we did not want any trouble but he said he could knock all three of us out with one punch.' Sandham, of Bagillt near Holywell, had also claimed that the teenage friends had started growling at him and 'went for him', something which the jury rejected.

It was only a small-sided game at the end of a session at Arsenal’s London Colney training ground, but heads were turned when teenage striker Chuba Akpom, called over to join them, cut in from the left flank and curled the ball, side-footed, around the goalkeeper to score. The move echoed a former time and a former forward, as if the ghost of Thierry Henry was still haunting the centre’s pitches with his trademark dribble and finish. Alexis Sanchez came running over to Akpom, leaping around excitedly and shouting ‘Titi, Titi, Titi, Titi!’ Arsenal's teenage striker Chuba Akpom has been compared to club legend Thierry Henry . Thierry Henry was Akpom's idol growing up and the youngster is keen to emulate his success . Akpom (left), walks to training with Arsenal team-mates Theo Walcott, Olivier Giroud and Danny Welbeck . There is still a long, long way to go until the 19-year-old gets anywhere near close to his idol Henry, but nicknames tend to stick around. ‘One day in training with the first team I scored an Henry-type goal, cutting inside and finishing,’ Akpom tells Sportsmail. ‘I could see Sanchez jumping, he’ s an enthusiastic guy at the best of times and he’s going: “Titi, Titi, Titi, Titi!” ‘The next morning he came to me and said “Titi.” 'Then the next morning he came to me and said “Titi.” I asked: 'hold on is this my new nickname?' That’s how it came about and it’s stuck since then. ‘Now the lads just call me Titi or Thierry Henry - I’ll take that. It’s not a bad comparison to have. ‘He was my idol growing up. Playing for the academy and watching Arsenal’s first team I used to see players like Henry scoring every week and it really inspired me.’ Akpom was born and bred in east London’s Canning Town and joined Arsenal aged six. Akpom closes down Southampton goalkeeper Fraser Forster during September's League Cup tie . Akpom celebrates after scoring during the 2014 International Tournament match with Holland .

Manager Arsene Wenger has been so impressed with his progress the Frenchman has him training with the first team and has included him regularly on the bench this season, featuring several times in the Premier League and FA Cup. Even if the Henry comparisons are premature, there is no denying Akpom is beginning to make his mark where it matters. ‘I’m with the senior team now in the changing room and on the training ground,’ he adds. ‘It’s all about getting familiar with the environment and the players and getting as much game time as I can. ‘A lot of them are international players, a lot are England players; Calum Chambers, Jack Wilshere, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Theo Walcott, Danny Welbeck, Kieran Gibbs. I look up to them. 'They’ve made it into the England senior team. It’s good to be around them and get good advice.’ Akpom is a right-footed front man but likes to drop out wide to the left flank to torment full-backs. Sound familiar? His is quick and skilful with a sharp finish. Most importantly, he scores goal. For Arsenal youth teams and England Under 15 to Under 20 level, bucketfuls of them.

The teenage striker celebrates after Nacho Monreal converts the winning penalty in a League Cup tie at West Brom last season . ‘People keep telling me having a child is the best feeling,’ he says. ‘I haven’ t had that yet I’m too young, but when I score goals - I’d be surprised if you beat that feeling.’ He cites one of the game’s greatest goal-scorers, the Brazilian Ronaldo, as another idol and closer to home is aiming at the top. But, unlike the lightning runs down the left wing, he understands all of that will come slowly. ‘Wayne Rooney is another player I look up to,’ he explains. ‘He’s the captain of the national team and that’s something I would like to try to do. ‘I’d love to be a captain - of England and Arsenal. Leading by example off the pitch and on it. It would be a dream. ‘Right now, it’s about getting in the squad first.

Cruise companies last night cancelled all stops in Tunis following the terrorist attack.

The mass cancellations follow a stark warning from the Foreign Office that ‘further attacks are possible’. The FCO has also advised holidaymakers to only travel to the interior of the country with a ‘reputable tour guide’. Scroll down for video . Cancellation: An association which looks after more than 50 cruise operators – including P&O, Thomson and Cunard – said no ships would be calling at the city ‘in the foreseeable future’ (file picture) Italian operators MSC Cruises and Costa Cruises, used by hundreds of British tourists each year, have already scrapped planned stops to Tunisian ports with immediate effect and said they were ‘seeking alternative ports’. Holiday companies Thomson and First Choice said they had also cancelled voyages to Tunis, while P&O, Princess and Celebrity cruises said they were taking advice from security services. A spokesman for the Cruise Lines International Association said last night: ‘No CLIA member ships are scheduled to call at Tunis in the foreseeable future. ‘Cruise lines coordinate closely with national and international authorities when visiting destinations around the globe to help ensure passenger safety.’ Last year, 425,000 British holidaymakers visited Tunisia and last night there were fears that as many as 6,500 could still be in the country. However a spokesman for Thomson and First Choice said: ‘Our customers stay in beach destinations, not Tunis, and we can confirm that none of our customers or staff were affected by Wednesday’s events.’ He added that, as a precaution, all excursions to Tunis have been cancelled. Meanwhile a spokesman for travel agent association ABTA said the tourist season was only just getting under way but safety was always a priority. He told Sky News: ‘Tourist numbers to Tunisia have picked up over the last two years and we have had very healthy bookings for this summer. The season really picks up around mid-April to May. Warning: It comes following a stark warning from the Foreign Office that ‘further attacks are possible’. Pictured: Tourists flee from the Bardo Museum in Tunis after Wednesday's attack . ‘We now have a developing situation.

Tour operators pulled out of the Egyptian market and it was some time before holidays started again.

Mike Peters was headed to his job driving veterans to and from outpatient services when he saw a man engulfed in flames 'from his waist to above his head' while standing alongside a suburban Rochester, New York, road. Peters stopped, ran past a woman making futile attempts to pat out the fire and tackled the burning man into an icy snowbank, using handfuls of dirty snow to douse the flames. Peters and two other motorists were credited with saving the life of 84-year-old Christopher Flowers after his clothing caught fire from a cigarette he was smoking while driving on Monday morning. Police and fire officials in the town of Gates said Tuesday that Flowers, of Chili, was driving when the multiple shirts he was wearing caught fire from a dropped lit cigarette. Flowers pulled over and got out of his car as flames spread across his clothing. Officials say three passing motorists — Peters and two women — pulled over to help. Peters said one of the women was trying to knock down the flames with her hands, but wasn't having any success. 'I scooped the guy up and did an end-zone dive into the snowbank,' Peters told The Associated Press. Peters said Flowers was wearing several layers of clothing, including two or three flannel shirts and a couple T-Shirts topped by a hooded sweatshirt. The three rescuers removed the smoldering clothing and wrapped him in a blanket that one of the women had in her trunk. Flowers was hospitalized and listed in guarded condition Tuesday with severe burns to his upper body. Peters believed Flowers pulled over and got out of his car to fish the burning cigarette from his multi-layered clothing, only to have Monday's windy conditions fan the flames to the point they engulfed his entire torso. 'I've just never seen anything like it,' said Peters, a 52-year-old former Army helicopter mechanic from Gates. 'It was like newspapers catching on fire.' Authorities identified the other two rescuers as Deborah Zielinski of Henrietta and Kathy Baleno of Gates.

Wearing a lime green cap and carrying a black backpack, a teenager has been caught attempting to flee Australia to join jihadi militants in the Middle East. A 17-year-old boy was taken off a plane at Sydney airport on March 12 and interviewed by counter-terrorism officers, Immigration Minister Peter Dutton revealed on Wednesday. It comes after two teenage brothers were also discovered doing the same thing earlier this month. A third teenager has been caught by authorities trying to join Islamic State terrorists in the Middle East . The incident happened on March 12 and charges have not been laid against the boy . The boy is the third teenager government officials have intercepted among about 200 people stopped from heading overseas to become foreign fighters with terrorist groups. He has since returned to his family, with the Australian Federal Police and ASIO investigating the matter. Prime Minister Tony Abbott said while it was hard to believe people who had grown up in Australia's free and open society could be susceptible to brain washing by extremist groups such as Islamic State, it was clearly happening. 'It is very dangerous for you. It is very dangerous for others,' he told reporters in Canberra. It follows two brothers who were detained for doing the same earlier this month (pictured above) The siblings aged 16 and 17 were questioned by counter-terrorism officers before they were sent home to their mother in Sydney's south-west . There are fears that more teenagers could end up like Abdullah Elmir (pictured) who has been dubbed the 'Ginger Jihadist' Elmir (front centre) has appeared in propaganda videos since he arrived in the Middle East (above) 'We will do everything we can to stop you if you do try.' The two brothers who were stopped earlier this month were aged 16 and 17. The siblings were south-west Sydney and were reportedly brought home by their mother after being detained. Authorities’ suspicions were aroused after the two had booked flights to an unidentified country in the Middle East and their luggage was searched. The latest teenager to be caught were trying to fly to the Middle East like notorious extremists Khaled Sharrouf and Mohamed Elomar . Mohamed Elomar (above) has caused a stir on social media after posting photos of him with weapons and severed heads . Meanwhile Khaled Sharrouf made international headlines after he posted photos of his children posing with guns . The above photograph is Sharrouf posing with his children in front of an Islamic State flag and rifles . The two boys were stopped on the night of March 6, Mr Dutton said at the time of the revelation. Their parents were unaware of their plans to travel to the Middle East. The brothers were later issued court attendance notices. Under the new Foreign Fighters Act, customs officers are allowed to detain people where the officer has reasonable grounds to suspect that the person is intending to commit a Commonwealth offence or is a threat to national security or the security of a foreign country. Sydney jihadists Mohamed Elomar, Khaled Sharrouf, and teenager Abdullah Elmir - dubbed the Ginger Jihadist - are so far the most high profile Australians to have travelled to the Middle East to fight with Islamic State. Elmir, a former Condell Park High student, was filmed on the banks of the River Tigris in Iraq last October. While Elomar and Sharrouf have appeared regularly in Islamic State videos.

One of Britain’s swankiest casinos has come up with a revolutionary way of getting round the smoking ban – by putting gaming tables on its new roof garden. The multi-million-pound development at the Hilton Hotel in Park Lane, Central London, will enable clients to enjoy a cigarette and gamble at the same time, and is expected to be particularly popular with wealthy clients who find the ban on smoking in enclosed public spaces irksome. The move will see a return to the days of Dr No, when Sean Connery as 007 meets the voluptuous Sylvia Trench at Le Cercle club, languidly puts a Morland cigarette to his lips and introduces himself with the immortal line: ‘Bond. James Bond.’ The name's Bond - James Bond: Sean Connery, as 007, lights up a cigarette in a casino in 1962's Dr No . Today, the suave spy would be liable for prosecution for breaking the smoking ban – the reason why a roof garden extension is being added to the hotel’s Park Lane Casino for its aptly named ‘high rollers’. David Mills, the hotel’s operations director, said: ‘Many of our clients come from countries where smoking bans do not apply. We want to provide them with a relaxing and enjoyable experience.’ Gaming tables will be placed on the terrace so that roulette, blackjack, baccarat and three-card poker can be played under the stars, although Westminster Council has banned live and recorded music in case it disturbs nearby residents. The multi-million-pound development at the Hilton Hotel in Park Lane (pictured), Central London, will enable clients to enjoy a cigarette and gamble at the same time .

Earlier this year, Mariam Aziz, the former wife of the world’s richest man, the Sultan of Brunei, described in court how she went on ‘reckless gambling sprees’ in Mayfair. Among the clubs visited were Les Ambassadeurs, Aspinalls and Rendezvous, and she confessed to blowing £500,000 in a single night.

Beijing's Forbidden City is following in the footsteps of Rome's Colosseum and London's National Gallery and banning the selfie stick. Bosses at the Palace Museum in the city have begun a crackdown on the popular phone accessories over fears that one wrong move could cause lasting damage to the invaluable artifacts in the ancient palace houses. The People's Daily Online reports that eagle-eyed staff are keeping watch over photo-enthusiasts in the palace's narrow or crowded areas, as well as all the indoor exhibitions, to avoid any potentially costly accidents. Ban: The Forbidden City has said selfie sticks are no longer allowed inside the exhibition rooms or narrow passageways over concerns an unfortunate accident may occur . 'Selfie sticks will cause safety concerns, whether for tourists or the exhibits,' Shen Lixia, deputy director of the museum's tourist reception department, told China Daily. 'It may touch the glass exhibition case and cause damage to the cultural relics.' She added that as well as being banned in exhibition areas, the sticks would be banned in outdoor areas of the museum - so visitors would be wise not to bother taking them at all. However, the sticks will still be allowed outside the palace in the Forbidden City - so tourists can still get the all-important shot of the famous 15th century building in the background. There was speculation that the move could be the first step to a total ban, as has been implemented at other cultural attractions around the world. It is thought the Louvre in Paris will bring in a ban in the next few weeks, while several football stadiums have banned them over fears the extendable devices could be used as a weapon. But it seems should the Forbidden City instill a total ban in mobile-mad China - there are said to be 19,300 versions of the selfie stick available on the country's answer to eBay, Taobao - they would have a fair amount of support. Popular: Chinese tourists use 'selfie sticks' to take pictures as they stand on Jingshan Park, overlooking the Forbidden City, in February.

Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt (above) said Britain would become the first country in the world with a nationwide meningitis B vaccination programme after the Government reached a deal with drug maker GlaxoSmithKline . All babies will be offered an injection against deadly meningitis B – ending a year-long delay, the Health Secretary said yesterday. The vaccine costs £20 a time and is expected to be available on the NHS by the end of the year. Jeremy Hunt’s announcement follows growing pressure from charities, highlighted by the Mail, which warned that children were dying and suffering devastating injuries while wrangling about the cost continued. There are around 1,870 cases of meningitis B in the country each year and it commonly affects the under-fives and teenagers. It leads to around 120 deaths and leaves another 400 with life-long disabilities including brain damage, amputations and blindness. A panel of scientific advisers had recommended in October 2013 that the vaccine should not be introduced as it was not deemed cost-effective. But ministers told the Joint Committee of Vaccination and Immunisation to carry out another assessment and this concluded last March that it should be offered. The Government then spent almost a year negotiating with drugs manufacturers trying to agree a cheaper price. On Saturday, the Mail highlighted how the jab was being denied to babies because of the cost row. Nearly 800,000 babies each year would be eligible for the jab at an average annual cost of £16million. Charities estimate the NHS would spend around £3million treating and caring for just one child who has survived meningitis but is left with life-long disabilities. GPs would give the injection to babies from the age of two months, with boosters at four months and 12 months. In most cases, they would have it with the five-in-one jab and the rotavirus oral vaccination. The move means the UK will be the first country in the world to offer the vaccine to all babies. Mr Hunt said: ‘We can go ahead this year with rolling out the meningitis B vaccine and that’s something families, particularly those with young children, will really welcome.’ Children need three doses in the first year of life, making the maximum final bill for the 700,000 born each year in England and Wales £42million. GPs are also paid a £7.50 fee for each dose administered . Meningitis B can kill a healthy child within hours of the first symptoms. The disease is an infection of the meninges - the membrane that surrounds the brain and spinal cord. Since the vaccine was licensed two years ago there have been 1,130 cases, of which at least 452 people died or suffered disabilities. The first symptoms usually include fever, vomiting and headaches. Others include limb pain, pale skin, neck stiffness, dislike of bright lights and confusion. It is commonly found in children under five years of age but can also affect teenagers aged 15 to 19. It is fatal in around 10 per cent of cases. Some of those who survive are left with long-term problems, such as amputation, deafness, epilepsy and learning difficulties. He said ministers had had a ‘stand-off’ with Novartis, which owned the vaccine, ‘for the best part of a year’ as it failed to agree a cheaper price. The jab, called Bexsero, has since been bought by GlaxoSmithKline, which has agreed a lower cost. Sue Davie, of the charity Meningitis Now, said: ‘To know that babies will be protected is fantastic and another great step forward in our fight against meningitis.’ Chris Head, of the Meningitis Research Foundation, said: ‘We are delighted that vaccinating all babies against this devastating disease is within sight, cementing the UK’s position as a world leader in meningitis prevention.’ Dr David Elliman, a consultant in Community Child Health at the Whittington Health NHS Trust, North London, said: ‘It is great news. The vaccine will mean the numbers of children suffering this terrible illness will be further reduced.’ Meningitis is an infection of the outside layer of cells surrounding the brain and spinal cord, causing inflammation and damage. It can kill within hours and is the most common cause of death by infectious disease in childhood.

Independent Senator Jacqui Lambie has rubbished claims of a Canberra makeover, and confessed she arrived in parliament with a wardrobe made up entirely of op-shop purchases. Ms Lambie said her thrift was the result of more than $20,000 of debt, which meant she was not able to splash out on her clothing. However, the fiery politician said she has splashed out on at least one luxury, admitting to getting botox injections in her back and face, according to the Daily Telegraph.

Democratic senators remain irritated with their GOP colleagues who last week sent a letter to Iranian leaders undercutting President Barack Obama, but they will still back bipartisan legislation that would give Congress final say over a nuclear deal. Enough members of the president's party have signaled support for that bill and another that would impose new sanctions on Iran if it doesn't make an agreement with negotiators that the White House would be powerless to stop the measures from going into effect once passed. The Obama administration and its international partners now have until March 24 to set up the framework for a deal. Scroll down for video . Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Bob Corker, a Republican, center, is flanked by the committee's ranking member, Sen. Robert Menendez, a Democrat, right, and Sen. James Risch, a Republican, as they listen to Secretary of State John Kerry, center, back to camera, testify on Capitol Hill last week. Corker and Menendez are the chief sponsors of one of the bills that would restrict the executive branch's negotiating authority . After that, a dozen Democratic senators, including Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut, Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota and Robert Menendez of New Jersey, the highest-ranking Democrat on the Senate Foreign Affairs committee, have said they will join with the GOP majority to pass bills inserting themselves into the process. One would levy additional sanctions on Iran after June 30 if it doesn't agree to the final terms of a deal, though monthly waivers would be allowed should more time be requested. The other would give the Senate the power to reject within 60 days any pact the executive branch makes with Iran. Democrats who spoke with Politico voiced their displeasure with the 47 GOP senators who wrote a letter to Iran notifying the country's leaders that any contract it makes with the Obama administration would be nullified when a new president takes office in January 2017, whereas most members of the upper chamber would be in office for years to come. But that hasn't changed their position on the core issue, they've said. 'The letter’s incredibly unfortunate and inappropriate,' Heitkamp said.'That doesn’t diminish my support for the legislation that we introduced.' Michigan Sen. Gary Peters similarly said the missive was 'simply unacceptable' and 'brought hyperpartisanship to an issue that we need to maintain our bipartisanship in.' He added: 'That doesn’t change my support for that bill. … I stay firm.' Blumenthal last week called Republicans' actions 'unconscionable' and bemoaned them for disrespecting the president. At the time, he said the bipartisan coalition of senators willing to buck the White House was 'in tatters.' Blumenthal told CNN that he was determined to 'stitch it back together,' though. A week later it appeared that the group was holding strong and that Senate Foreign Relations Bob Corker, one of just seven Republican senators who did not sign the 'open letter,' was correct in predicting last Thursday that the whole thing would blow over. 'Let a couple days go by. We think there’s going to be really ignited momentum,' Corker had told Politico. Nobody’s dropping out. We’ve had reaffirmed commitment.' Democratic senators remain irritated with their GOP colleagues who last week sent a letter to Iranian leaders, but they will still back bipartisan legislation that would give Congress final say over a nuclear deal. Freshman Sen. Tom Cotton of Arkansas, pictured here last Wednesday on Capitol Hill, authored the missive to Tehran . Meanwhile, Republicans who did sign the letter triumphantly declared on the Sunday news shows that they had no 'regrets' about sending Tehran the strongly worded message. 'I stand by the letter,' National Republican Senatorial Committee Chairman Rodger Wicker said on NBC's Meet the Press. 'I think it's interesting that we've had so much talk about process, just like we've had talk about process with Prime Minister Netanyahu's speech, rather than dealing with the substance,' the Mississippi Republican asserted, referring to House Republican leadership's end run around the White House earlier this year when it invited Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu to address Congress. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell told CNN he thinks it was 'fair' for Republicans to explain that Congress will be involved in the process one way or another. 'I don’t think it was a mistake,' he said of the message to Tehran. 'The administration would like to have a distraction, but the point is the subject of the matter,' the GOP leader said. 'Apparently, the Obama administration is on the cusp of entering into a very bad deal with one of the worst regimes in the world.' Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton, the author of the GOP letter, said on CBS' Face the Nation that 'Iran’s leaders needed to hear the message loud and clear.' 'I can tell you they are not hearing the message from Geneva,' he told show host Bob Schieffer. Secretary of State John Kerry, who has primarily led talks with Tehran on behalf of the U.S., lambasted letter signers on Sunday, saying, 'I’ve never seen anything like this.' Kerry, a former Massachusetts senator, warned that negotiations would likely extend beyond the end of the month. 'We believe very much that there’s not going to be anything that’s going to change in April or May or June that suggests that a decision you can’t make now will be made then,' he said in a separate appearance on Face the Nation. Secretary of State John Kerry, who has primarily led talks with Tehran on behalf of the U.S., warned Sunday that negotiations would likely extend beyond Democrats' deadline for an agreement framework- March 24 . The White House has threatened to veto Senate legislation interfering with the administration's attempt to convince Tehran to put aside its nuclear ambitions. Obama's chief of staff Denis McDonough again told Corker, a sponsor of the 60-day review bill along with predecessor Menendez, in a Saturday note that the president would not sign legislation usurping his ability to unilaterally approve these types of agreements with foreign governments. McDonough said in the letter to Corker that the White House has 'welcomed Congress’ important role' in talks before essentially instructing the legislative branch to butt out. The Corker-Menendez legislation 'goes well beyond ensuring that Congress has a role to play in any deal with Iran,' McDonough contended, and could set a 'potentially damaging precedent.' On Monday, the White House reiterated its stance that Congress has thoroughly been consulted during negotiations and vowed to continue involving the legislature when the time comes to talk about removing sanctions on Iran. Claims to the contrary are 'baloney,' the president's spokesman, Josh Earnest, said, . Earnest said that legislation giving Congress 60 days to reject a deal would suggest to the Iranians that the United States may not stick to its end of the bargain. 'We can't have a situation where you have people in the Congress back seat driving,' the Obama administration official said. If Democrats and Republicans in the Senate stick together, the White House will not be able undo their work. Supporters of the bills now number in the mid 60s. A vote of 66 lawmakers or more in favor of the measures would tie the president's hands. Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine said Sunday it was 'unrealistic' for the White House to think that Congress wouldn't have a say in any dealings with Iran, however. 'I have supported the negotiations to this point, but any deal that touches upon the congressional statutory sanctions is gonna get a review of Congress, and the only question is are you going to have a constructive, deliberate bipartisan process, or are you going to be rushed and partisan,' he said on Meet the Press.

The White House would be powerless to stop the measures from going into effect once passed if as many Democrats as expected defect .

Shreeves asks whether van Gaal accepts players challenging his tactics or methods and the Dutchman chuckles before revealing: ‘Most of the players don’t dare to do that but when they have good arguments I listen. Van Gaal walks across the Anfield turf on Sunday as his side takes on Liverpool at in a crucial fixture . ‘When their argument is better than mine than I’d look at changing my ideas. Which system I play is not interesting, it is the philosophy that is important.

However the 63-year-old only gives one sentence to his players on match day: ‘The team is as a whole, they all sit in front of me and then I say one sentence…"Show yourself today” or “No red card because it will be a very sharp duel”.’ Wayne Rooney celebrates scoring United's final goal in their 3-0 win against Tottenham last weekend . He feels this is important as it forces the players to prepare for themselves : ‘Because I have prepared for the match together with the players already for three or four days. What do I need to say then? ‘I want to transfer to the players that they need to think for themselves in the match, they have to decide by themselves. Otherwise they have to wait until half-time so that I can say something. ‘I believe that players can read the game, that they have to coach their fellow players .

What do I need to say then? ‘I want to transfer to the players that they need to think for themselves in the match, they have to decide by themselves. Otherwise they have to wait until half-time so that I can say something. ‘I believe that players can read the game, that they have to coach their fellow players .

Chinese tourists have been told to stay off commuter trains that run between central Paris and France’s largest international airport following a rash of robberies this year. The Chinese embassy in Paris issued the rare travel warning this week, saying that it is following up on the cases with investigators. Instead of taking RER trains the embassy is urging Chinese visitors to use buses, taxis or ‘other transport’ to travel between Paris’ tourist zone and Charles de Gaulle Airport north-east of the city centre. Chinese tourists have been told to avoid the RER B train between central Paris and Charles de Gaulle Airport . According to the embassy at least four robberies have occurred on RER B trains – which run almost 24 hours a day with frequent departures – since mid-February, the Hong Kong newspaper The Standard reported. It said one tourist missed a flight home to China after his or her bag was stolen during the 40-minute train ride. In other incidents, a young Chinese visitor suffered ‘a very huge loss’, and two tourists missed their flights home after they had property stolen. Working as individuals or in groups, thieves have been targeting holidaymakers on trains and using distraction thefts. China's embassy in Paris said at least four tourists have been robbed on RER trains since mid-February . In some cases one of the thieves will drop coins or other objects and the helpful holidaymaker has his or her property stolen while they help to pick them up. Some victims have had their bags snatched moments before the train’s doors close. Miramar Travel general manager Alex Lee Chun-ting told The Standard that tours to France and the rest of Europe remain ‘incredibly popular’ and thefts are nothing new. He said: ‘These types of thefts have been occurring for the past few years, but the Chinese government has only just decided to issue a travel warning.’ Thefts on the RER train system are not just limited to tourists, however. Late last year Paris police reported an eight per cent drop in muggings against tourists . According to The Local, the RER service has a reputation for being a crime hotspot, with a gang of about 20 thieves robbing numerous passengers in a planned attack last Sunday. It led to opposition politicians calling for heightened security measures at RER stations, including more CCTV. Late last year Paris police announced that they had seen an eight per cent drop in the number of muggings involving tourists. The French capital once said that it would bring in police from China to support a crime crackdown and assist Chinese tourists, but the plan has been put on hold.

The mother of two missing boys has issued an emotional plea for their safe return after they were allegedly kidnapped by their father five weeks ago, saying she will 'never stop looking' for them.

Stores are set to cut back on Black Friday discounts this year to avoid another ‘delivery tsunami’. The idea of Black Friday has been imported from America, where retailers offer big discounts to kick start the Christmas shopping season. However, it proved a disaster in Britain last year with long queues and violent scenes which saw the police criticising supermarkets for failing to put in place proper security. The web stores trade body, IMRG, has warned retailers that they will have to fundamentally rethink how they handle Black Friday this year after a catastrophe in 2014 . At the same time, many online stores were simply unable to cope with the rush of orders with the result that a huge delivery backlog was created. Many retailers were also disappointed to find the event merely brought forward sales that would have happened later in December, rather than generating any extra business. The web stores trade body, IMRG, has warned retailers that they will have to fundamentally rethink how they handle Black Friday this year. Significantly, it said: ‘Black Friday can be very profitable for retailers who get it right, but discount rates will need to be rationalised and panic-discounting avoided.’ It suggests stores might want to spread the discounts and promotion over a longer period, perhaps a weekend or week, in order to avoid the spike in orders. Firms should also ensure they have sufficient couriers to cope and warn customers that deliveries may take longer than normal, or set up alternative click and collect services. Scenes of violence: Cutomers fought tooth and nail to make the most of discount deals on black Friday. The scale of the event greatly exceeded everyone’s expectations . For many the scenes of chaos didn't pay off. Some retailers were disappointed to find the event merely brought forward sales that would have happened later in December, rather than generating any extra business . The IMRG said: ‘The scale of Black Friday 2014 greatly exceeded everyone’s expectations, which meant a large number of online orders were compressed into a far shorter period of time than anticipated – triggering an online retail ‘delivery tsunami’. ‘This heavily impacted carrier and retailer fulfilment operations and normal activity suffered for days afterwards.’ Andrew Starkey, head of e-logistics at IMRG, said: ‘The huge surge in demand on Black Friday 2014 was unprecedented and caught everyone in the industry by surprise. Fevered and bullish behaviour in retail outlets saw the police criticising supermarkets for failing to put in place proper security . ‘The exact form of it may evolve in 2015, but at least this time we have a precedent and time to develop strategies to ensure the Christmas peak runs as efficiently as possible. ‘It’s fair to say that Black Friday splits opinion, but the impact of it is so vast that it affects all retailers whether they run campaigns or not. ‘The key points for industry to address are around how to smooth out the spike – even spreading it over a few days would make a massive difference to fulfilment operations – and managing expectation so that customers receive accurate and up-to-date information about the progress of their orders.’ Firms should also ensure they have sufficient couriers to cope and warn customers that deliveries may take longer than normal, or set up alternative click and collect services, the IMRG said.

Shops cut back US retail event to avoid deliveries overload and confusion . Discounts supposed to kick-off Christmas proved disaster in the UK . Scenes of violence and disappointment marred Britain's Black Friday . Rush to order reduced merchandise online created huge delivery backlog . Expectations must be managed and crowds tamed for success this year .

The IMRG said: ‘The scale of Black Friday 2014 greatly exceeded everyone’s expectations, which meant a large number of online orders were compressed into a far shorter period of time than anticipated – triggering an online retail ‘delivery tsunami’. ‘This heavily impacted carrier and retailer fulfilment operations and normal activity suffered for days afterwards.’ Andrew Starkey, head of e-logistics at IMRG, said: ‘The huge surge in demand on Black Friday 2014 was unprecedented and caught everyone in the industry by surprise. Fevered and bullish behaviour in retail outlets saw the police criticising supermarkets for failing to put in place proper security . ‘The exact form of it may evolve in 2015, but at least this time we have a precedent and time to develop strategies to ensure the Christmas peak runs as efficiently as possible. ‘It’s fair to say that Black Friday splits opinion, but the impact of it is so vast that it affects all retailers whether they run campaigns or not. ‘The key points for industry to address are around how to smooth out the spike – even spreading it over a few days would make a massive difference to fulfilment operations – and managing expectation so that customers receive accurate and up-to-date information about the progress of their orders.’ Firms should also ensure they have sufficient couriers to cope and warn customers that deliveries may take longer than normal, or set up alternative click and collect services, the IMRG said.

Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini has questioned the long-term effects of holding the 2022 World Cup in the winter. The final of the showpiece event in Qatar is to be on Sunday, December 18 - a decision which will allow traditional Boxing Day club matches to take place in Britain and avoid the fierce heat of June and July. It will be a shortened tournament over 28 days instead of the usual 32, starting on November 21. December 18 is also Qatar's national day. Manuel Pellegrini has expressed concern over the plans to play the Qatar 2022 World Cup in winter . The Manchester City manager watches on during his side's 1-0 defeat by Barcelona on Wednesday night . However, Pellegrini is concerned how Premier League games, which would usually be scheduled for November and December, will be caught up later in the season and the impact of doing so on the next domestic campaign. 'I think it is difficult to stop all the European leagues in that month, especially in our league at this moment, and not play football here in November and December,' Pellegrini said. 'When you recover those amount of games what will happen in the next season, when you finish late, how many days the national squad will need their players? 'I don't think it is easy. It is a big task.' Swansea manager Garry Monk echoed Pellegrini's thoughts, but conceded that teams would just have to 'get on with it'. Swansea boss Garry Monk says the break will be strange but the clubs will just have to get on with it . Roberto Martinez says teams around Europe will have to adapt to the affect of a winter World Cup . 'It will be strange having a two-month break in the middle of the season. I'm not sure how that's going to work and I'd have to see the exact lay-out of it, but I don't think it's a great thing,' he said. 'It's beyond the powers of Swansea City, but I can't imagine too many teams are happy with it. But it sounds as if we're just going to have to get on with it.' Everton boss Roberto Martinez conceded the tournament moving to November would need plenty of adaptation, but he always expected a World Cup in Qatar to be held over the winter. 'You need clarity and then you can prepare towards that,' Martinez said. 'But I always felt that once it was given to Qatar it was going to be a winter World Cup. 'When all the talk is about wanting the World Cup in different continents and different countries, and when the hosts are going to be Qatar, it's only normal that it's going to be played in the winter. 'That's going to affect two or three seasons around that date, but we need to adapt and make it a big football celebration like the World Cup's supposed to be.' Hull boss Steve Bruce says playing the World Cup in the winter is the only sensible solution . Hull manager Steve Bruce thinks a World Cup late in the year is a sensible move in such a hot climate, but took the chance to push for a winter break. He said: 'We've got plenty of time to adapt. I've always said in this country we need a break, we should copy everyone else. When you see other teams come back there's a freshness about them because of the winter break. 'We've got plenty of time to put the schedule in. Once FIFA picked Qatar there was only one solution and they've picked the sensible one.' West Brom manager Tony Pulis agreed. 'Whichever way you try to cook it they have worked it to suit the country at the best possible time. They have moved everything around to suit them, full stop,' he said. 'They are the governing body and, irrespective of what you do say and don't say, there might be loads of people unhappy with it, but they have got it through and it's been agreed. 'Everyone has to get on with it. What will be the situation in England, is everything is going to have to be reorganised and revamped? That's going to be interesting.'

(CNN)The world of Mexican wrestling wrestling has been deeply shaken by the death of star fighter Hijo del Perro Aguayo, who collapsed after being kicked during a bout. The lucha libre fighter, whose real name is Pedro Aguayo Ramirez, was left slumped against the ropes after a flying kick from one of his opponents, Rey Mysterio, during the match Friday night. The other wrestlers continued with the fight as Aguayo's limp body slid down onto the mat, according to video footage of the bout posted on social media. The video showed ringside personnel repeatedly shaking Aguayo and talking to him without any response. He eventually received medical attention and was rushed out of the arena in the city of Tijuana. But doctors were unable to revive him. AAA, the wrestling promotion company for which Aguayo worked, said it was informed of his death around 1 a.m. Saturday. He was 35 years old. "Mexican lucha libre is in mourning over the death of one of its star talents," the AAA said in a statement. Questions remained over what exactly caused Aguayo's death and why it took so long for him to receive medical treatment. Ernesto Franco, the duty doctor at the fight, told Mexico's state news agency Notimex that at the time of Aguayo's collapse, he was attending to other injured wrestlers, according to CNN Mexico. Franco said Aguayo's injury was the result of a blow to the neck region, adding that he spent about an hour trying to revive him using "all possible resuscitation measures." The Associated Press reported that the state prosecutor's office has opened an investigation into possible manslaughter. The AAA said Friday's fight was organized by another promotion company named The Crash. Aguayo's death prompted an outpouring of grief on social media from fans and members of the wrestling industry. "I will miss you and carry you with me for the rest of my life," tweeted Rey Mysterio, who landed the flying kick on Aguayo. "Rest in peace, Hijo del Perro." He posted two images on Instagram that appeared to show him and Aguayo at a young age and again later in life. "I had the privilege to share a ring for the first time with Hijo del Perro Aguayo in his debut as a professional wrestler and an honor to be in the ring with this great legend for the last time!" he wrote. "You will be missed, Perro." WWE wrestler Mark Henry tweeted, "Respect to fallen brother in arms!" "I and the WWE universe pray for your peace and comfort to your family!" Henry wrote. Aguayo is the son of one of the giants of Mexican wrestling, Pedro "Perro" Aguayo. The younger Aguayo began his career in 1995 at the age 15, according to the AAA. But he emerged from his father's shadow to become a big name in his own right. "El Hijo del Perro Aguayo was among the most decorated AAA stars in recent memory as a three-time Mexican National Tag Team champion as well as a former Mexican National Light Heavyweight champion and Mexican National Atomicos champion," wrote Bleacher Report columnist Mike Chiari. "There is no question that El Hijo del Perro Aguayo was among the most popular and successful luchadores in Mexico," Chiari said.

A person's sexual orientation can determine how much money they will earn according to a new report that claims gay men face discrimination from employers. Based on the personal information provided by over 10,000 people in the 2012 Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey, the report states that lesbians earn 33 per cent more than heterosexual women. However the reason for the extra pay is due to the survey sample noting that they work about 20 per cent more hours, the University of Melbourne's Mark Wooden said. Based on the personal information provided by over 10,000 people in the 2012 Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey, the report states that lesbians earn 33 per cent more than heterosexual women . 'One explanation for the increased earnings and longer work hours of lesbians might be that this group are less likely to have children than heterosexual women,' he said. The HILDA Survey recorded that only 22 per cent of lesbian women between the ages of 30 and 49 had children three years ago, compared to almost 60 per cent of straight women. Gay men on the other hand, were found to earn about 20 per cent less than heterosexual men due to a lower rate of earnings' growth. The gap in pay only worsened for those who lived with a partner, despite lesbians living with their significant other recording higher wages than those without. 'We found that the wages of gay men are growing at a much slower rate than the wages of heterosexual males,' Prof Wooden said. University of Melbourne's (pictured) Mark Wooden said gay men were found to earn about 20 per cent less than heterosexual men due to a lower rate of earnings' growth . 'Gay males who are most likely to be observably gay by employers—those who live with a same-sex partner—face larger earnings penalties than those who are discreet about their sexuality.' The report added that 'gay men are 16 per cent less likely to be employed and are substantially more likely to have several periods of joblessness than heterosexual men'. Although admitting that numerous factors contribute to the varying earnings across sexual orientation, Professor Wooden admitted that 'employer discrimination is likely a major part of the explanation for these wage gaps, especially in the case of gay men'. The findings are outlined in the Sexual Identity, Earnings, and Labour Market Dynamics: New Evidence from Longitudinal Data in Australia report.

David Cameron is facing calls to sack a Tory candidate who dressed up as the convicted killer Oscar Pistorius – complete with fake blood and full South African athletics kit. Gregg Peers, who is standing for the Conservatives in a Cumbria County Council by-election two weeks before the general election, posted the fancy dress picture on his Facebook page. Labour MPs said it was 'stomach churning' to see a prospective Tory councillor making light of a man who gunned down his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp on Valentine's Day two years ago. Gregg Peers, who is standing for the Conservatives in a Cumbria County Council by election two weeks before the general election, posted the fancy dress picture on his Facebook page . Mr Peers has previously stood for election in Newcastle and is the agent to the Tory parliamentary candidate for Barrow and Furness Simon Fell. A Conservative Party spokesman this afternoon attacked Mr Peers' fancy dress choice. He said: 'This is unacceptable and in poor taste. The candidate has apologised and taken the picture down.' But Labour shadow minister Liz Kendall said the Conservative Party needed to immediately discipline the candidate. She said: 'Oscar Pistorious is rightly serving time in prison for killing Reeva Steenkamp - it is stomach churning to see a man who wants to hold elected office making a joke out of the death of a woman. 'David Cameron must show he takes violence against women seriously by taking immediate action against his candidate, and the Conservatives must explain why they promoted him to senior positions in their party.' Oscar Pistorius is facing a fresh murder trial for the killing of his model girlfriend after prosecutors appealed against his manslaughter conviction . Former Olympian sprinter Oscar Pistorius posing with his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp at Melrose Arch in Johannesburg, South Africa in 2013 just a month before he shot and killed her . Pistorius is facing a fresh murder trial for the killing of his model girlfriend after prosecutors appealed against his manslaughter conviction. Prosecutors in South Africa want Pistorius convicted of murder for shooting his girlfriend multiple times in a bathroom in his home on Valentine's Day in 2013. Labour shadow minister Liz Kendal said David Cameron should sack Mr Peers . In December, Judge Thokozile Masipa granted prosecutors permission to take the case to South Africa's Supreme Court of Appeal and challenge her own ruling to acquit Pistorius of murder and find him guilty instead of a lesser charge comparable to manslaughter. Pistorius's lawyers had argued that the judge should not have allowed that appeal. The Olympian and multiple Paralympic champion is currently serving a five-year prison sentence for culpable homicide, or negligent killing. The 28-year-old could be eligible for release from the jail in the capital, Pretoria, in August to serve the remainder of his sentence under house arrest. If prosecutors succeed in their appeal against the culpable homicide conviction in the Supreme Court of Appeal and have it upgraded to murder, Pistorius would face a minimum of 15 years in jail. Judge Masipa, who presided over Pistorius's seven-month murder trial and the start of the appeal process by prosecutors, made her latest ruling after a short court session in Johannesburg. Pistorius's trial now looks set to be reviewed by a panel of judges at the Supreme Court of Appeal, which sits in the central city of Bloemfontein. No date has been given for that appeal but cases can sometimes take two years to reach the court, legal experts have said.

A sour appearance on business competition show Shark Tank actually ended in success for start-up founder Jesse Genet. The 27-year-old taped this past year, pitching her company Lumi which sells DIY kits to print custom designs on T-shirts, bags, and other surfaces. But the shrewd angel investors on the show refused to bite at Genet's offer of a 5 per cent stake in her company for $250,000, believing she was overestimating the worth of the business of $5 million. Scroll down for video . The pitch: Jesse Genet, CEO of DIY screenprinting company Lumi, failed to get an investment when she appeared on Shark Tank in a recent episode .

Packs of wild boar are hunting newborn lambs in Britain, experts say. The Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, has about 800 boar which usually feed only on plants and dead animals. But in recent weeks, groups have reportedly killed four lambs. Clare Harvey, a vet, saw six boar eat a lamb near the village of Lydbrook. Boar blimey: Boar in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire usually feed only on plants and dead animals . She said: ‘It was quite brutal, with the carcass already having been skinned and the piglets tearing it limb from limb. 'We know pigs are omnivores and devour carrion, but this suggested they may have developed a taste for fresh meat. 'There are serious implications for animal health and the spread of disease.’ The Forestry Commission said it had heard three further reports of the animals killing and eating lambs in Bream, Parkend and Yorkley, Gloucestershire. In recent weeks, boar have reportedly killed four lambs. In a fourth incident a boar ate a ewe and its still-born lamb - though it is not known if they were both already dead. A spokesman for the Forestry Commission said: 'They are a large free-roaming animal, and they are an omnivore, and they can get rather large. 'I suspect if you spoke to a large mammal expert it would come as no surprise that large animals that eat both meat and vegetation, maybe is doing this. 'It is something we have heard is happening, from second or third hand accounts, but it is not something that any of our guys have seen.' Wild boar became extinct in England 300 years ago, but have been reintroduced through escapes and deliberate releases. The Forest of Dean group is the country’s largest.

A brain-damaged man accused of starting a 1996 fire at an Ohio fireworks store that killed nine people died earlier this month at a mental health facility. Todd Hall died March 8 in Athens where he had been getting treatment for the last several years, according to the Lawrence County Prosecutor's Office. A cause of death for the 43-year-old couldn't be immediately confirmed Monday. Suspect: Todd Hall, center, miles before leaving court in Ironton, Ohio (2002 file photo).  Hall was accused of starting a 1996 fire at an Ohio fireworks store that killed nine people . Hall, of Proctorville, was 24 when prosecutors say that, as a prank, he threw a lighted cigarette on a shelf crammed with fireworks at the Ohio River Fireworks store in Scottown, about 100 miles southeast of Cincinnati. The blaze on July 3, 1996, killed nine people and eleven people were injured. Five of the victims were from Ohio; the four others were from nearby West Virginia. According to court testimony, Hall had part of his brain removed after suffering a serious injury in a 1987 skateboard accident and had the mental capacity of a 10-year-old . The Daily Independent reported that victims included 24-year-old Ryan Aldridge; 3-year-old Shelbi Cron; 21-year-old Misti Cron, 31-year-old Candy Lee, 14-year-old Matt Sansom, 8-year-old Ona Tolliver, 34-year-old Floyd Tolliver, 9-year-old Jason Wallace, and 71-year-old Kathlene Wilks. According to court testimony, Hall had part of his brain removed after suffering a serious injury in a 1987 skateboard accident and had the mental capacity of a 10-year-old. Charged with aggravated arson and nine counts of involuntary manslaughter, he repeatedly was ruled incompetent to stand trial in the years since then. In recent years, he had shown severe impairments in his ability to control his behavior, regulate his mood and take care of himself and was deemed incapable of living outside a facility, according to the last court-ordered evaluation a few years ago. The Daily Independent reported that Hall giggled and sang the Star-Spangled Banner in court. Authorities initially thought three friends challenged Hall to set the fire, but they all passed polygraph tests and were never charged. About 40 people were in the store at the time and ran for the exits when fireworks started going off.

A doctor put a 'Do Not Resuscitate' notice on a great-grandfather without any consultation as she believed it would have caused 'unnecessary distress' to discuss the plan with him. Michael Richardson, 66, a former metal polisher and gardener, died at James Paget University Hospital in Gorleston, Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, on October 27 2013. He had been ill for several years with the lung condition pulmonary fibrosis. His widow Janet, 66, accused medics of 'playing God with his life' when she discovered the DNR notice had been placed on him without consultation. Michael Richardson, 66, pictured with his wife Janet (right), died at James Paget University Hospital in Gorleston, Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, on October 27 2013 . Dr Anna Blackburn, a consultant specialising in respiratory medicine at the hospital, said she made the decision when he was admitted on October 24, as attempting to save him would have been 'futile' and 'cruel' In the inquest into his death today, Dr Anna Blackburn, a consultant specialising in respiratory medicine at the hospital, said she made the decision when he was admitted on October 24. She said Mr Richardson, from Great Yarmouth, had little chance of surviving a cardiac arrest and attempting to save him would have been 'futile and cruel'. 'I sat down and thought long and hard about it. 'We had discussed his condition, he cried and he seemed quite upset about how it would affect his wife. 'I felt bringing up resuscitation would be even more distressing for him', she said. Patient confidentiality meant she could not approach Mr Richardson's family without first talking to him. The inquest heard the hospital's policy at the time said it was not necessary to discuss a DNR decision if it would be 'unnecessarily burdensome' for the patient. The hospital's policy was not to discuss such a decision if it would be 'unnecessarily burdensome' for the patient. This was changed in light of a 2014 Court of Appeal ruling and now states patients should be informed of the decision, unless this would cause physical harm. Dr Blackburn added: 'If I was faced with Mr Richardson today, I would have that discussion.' Mrs Richardson challenged the doctor in the inquest, saying: 'My husband had a lot to live for even if it was for another week - I'm sorry your decision was very, very wrong.' Mr Richardson's widow Janet, 66, accused medics at James Paget University Hospital (pictured) of 'playing God with his life' when she discovered the DNR notice had been placed on him without consultation . Yesterday, hospital staff described how they had initially rushed to save Mr Richardson after he suffered a cardiac arrest. But they stopped when the DNR notice was brought to their attention. Giving evidence, Mrs Richardson said her husband tried to discharge himself the day before his death. 'He said, "I can't breathe, take me home - I can't stand it any more. They're trying to kill me",' she added. 'I said, "I love you", and then he said he loved me too. That was the last time I saw him alive. 'I wish I'd bundled him up and taken him home because at least if he was going to die, he was going to die with some dignity.' The inquest continues.

Scroll down for video . A photographer is hitting back at a 'cyber bully' and critics after her photo shoot with a military family featured their baby boy wrapped in an American flag. The image shows Landon Clevenger, at the time eight days old, from Virginia Beach being cradled in an American flag by his father, Rodney Clevenger, who is wearing his U.S. Navy uniform (pictured above) Vanessa Hicks (above), 29, from Virginia Beach posted pictures from the photo shoot onto her Facebook page on March 8, unaware that they would receive negative feedback . However, a community business page on Facebook, 'You Call Yourself A Photographer?' posted Hicks's image of Landon and Mr Clevenger criticizing the use of the flag. The group wrote that the flag is 'not a prop' (the post above) Hicks said her intention was to honor the U.S. flag while also honoring the parents, as Clevenger's wife, Samantha, also served for the country as a former US Army member, and he has served as a sailor in the US Navy for six years, according to ABC News. The family wanted to include their military service in the photos said Hicks. The mother-of-three and Navy veteran who served for four years said the image she took illustrates what Mr Clevenger was fighting for - the American flag. 'I have seen first-hand what is desecration of the flag,' said Hicks of her time in the Navy. 'At the end of the day I didn't do anything that disrespected this flag.' However, a community business page on Facebook, 'You Call Yourself A Photographer?' posted Hicks's image of Landon and Mr Clevenger criticizing the use of the flag. The group wrote: 'The flag is not a prop. I repeat: The flag is not a prop. To use the American flag in such a way is disrespectful, rude, tacky, disgusting, and against the U.S. Flag Code.' It continued detailing the 'key points' of the code including that the flag should never touch anything beneath it. The post concluded with: 'Mr. Clevenger, you have disgraced our fallen soldiers as well by disobeying that code. Hicks said: 'When I look at [the] picture, I see a man who has served six years in our Navy, the mother of this child is prior Army' (above Samantha and Rodney in uniform) Hicks said her intention was to honor the U.S. flag while also honoring the family, as Clevenger's wife Samantha (pictured above with her father, a Navy member), also served for the country as a former US Army member, and he has served as a sailor in the US Navy for six years . 'I don't know what the military teaches these days but I do know my son was taught the flag code and also taught that any disobedience towards that code would result in repercussions from your command....yet here you are in uniform, name fully visible, on a photographer's Facebook page disobeying that code and dishonoring our fallen soldiers and you obviously don't care.' Several Facebook users supported the post agreeing that the 'code was broken and the flag was used as a prop', while others said 'anyone who is offended by this is uptight and ignorant'. One user wrote: 'I agree the code was broken and the flag was used as a prop. And desecrated by pee and poop from what I heard. 'I hold the flag sacred and it is my opinion is has 2 places. On a pole or on the casket of a fallen hero.' Hicks said she spent hours taking down comments from her business and company page criticizing the photo. Several Facebook users supported the post agreeing that the 'code was broken and the flag was used as a prop' (above a user slams Hicks's use of the flag in the photo shoot) On Facebook, she posted earlier this week writing that she almost let the negativity take her down, but then decided to take a stand and fight back. She wrote: 'Yesterday, I woke up to see this photo was shared on a group site that is meant to bash other photographers. It was in their opinion I had disrespected our nations flag. I had disrespected our country by taking this picture. 'Several of these people not only bashed the picture, but me, saying I should be ashamed of myself, my husband should be ashamed, etc and I received several private messages to my business page. 'They even took it a step farther and bashed the service member in the picture, hoping he gets in trouble for participating in desecration of the flag.' The photographer who is married to an active-duty Navy member announced that she has since offered the Clevenger family free photo shoots for life from her company as a way to thank them for their support (the Clevengers above) On Facebook, Hicks posted earlier this week writing that she almost let the negativity take her down, but then decided to take a stand and fight back. She has since received overwhelming support from those including military members who said the picture was not offensive (above a former solider shares appreciation for the photo) Hicks said that she believes the picture of Landon and Mr Clevenger shows what it means to be American (above a Navy member writes that those offended by the photograph are 'up tight and ignorant') Do you find this photo of a baby wrapped in an American flag by his sailor father disrespectful? Do you find this photo of a baby wrapped in an American flag by his sailor father disrespectful? Now share your opinion . Hicks added: 'I almost let these cyber bullies get me yesterday. I could have easily deleted the picture off of my business page and ended it with that. I almost did. Then I thought, why? 'These cyber bullies would win! Hell no! So I went to the group and I stood up to them. I stood up for what I believed in! And you know what, so did so many others!' Hicks said she has since received overwhelming support from those including military members who said the picture was not offensive. A user wrote in support of Hicks photo: 'It brought tears to my eyes. I am a former Soldier of the 82D Airborne Division, I cannot think of anything more perfect, to describe what fighting for your country truly means, than your picture. 'It is the embodiment of patriotism. I know the friends I have lost would think exactly the same thing. Thank you for your beautiful work.' Hicks said that she believes the picture of Landon and Mr Clevenger shows what it means to be American, according to WTKR. 'When I look at this picture, I see a man who has served six years in our Navy, the mother of this child is prior Army,' she said. The photographer who is married to an active-duty Navy member announced that she has since offered the Clevenger family free photo shoots for life from her company as a way to thank them for their support.

She wrote: 'Yesterday, I woke up to see this photo was shared on a group site that is meant to bash other photographers. It was in their opinion I had disrespected our nations flag. I had disrespected our country by taking this picture. 'Several of these people not only bashed the picture, but me, saying I should be ashamed of myself, my husband should be ashamed, etc and I received several private messages to my business page. 'They even took it a step farther and bashed the service member in the picture, hoping he gets in trouble for participating in desecration of the flag.' The photographer who is married to an active-duty Navy member announced that she has since offered the Clevenger family free photo shoots for life from her company as a way to thank them for their support (the Clevengers above) On Facebook, Hicks posted earlier this week writing that she almost let the negativity take her down, but then decided to take a stand and fight back. She has since received overwhelming support from those including military members who said the picture was not offensive (above a former solider shares appreciation for the photo) Hicks said that she believes the picture of Landon and Mr Clevenger shows what it means to be American (above a Navy member writes that those offended by the photograph are 'up tight and ignorant') Do you find this photo of a baby wrapped in an American flag by his sailor father disrespectful? Do you find this photo of a baby wrapped in an American flag by his sailor father disrespectful? Now share your opinion . Hicks added: 'I almost let these cyber bullies get me yesterday. I could have easily deleted the picture off of my business page and ended it with that. I almost did. Then I thought, why? 'These cyber bullies would win! Hell no! So I went to the group and I stood up to them. I stood up for what I believed in! And you know what, so did so many others!' Hicks said she has since received overwhelming support from those including military members who said the picture was not offensive. A user wrote in support of Hicks photo: 'It brought tears to my eyes. I am a former Soldier of the 82D Airborne Division, I cannot think of anything more perfect, to describe what fighting for your country truly means, than your picture. 'It is the embodiment of patriotism. I know the friends I have lost would think exactly the same thing. Thank you for your beautiful work.' Hicks said that she believes the picture of Landon and Mr Clevenger shows what it means to be American, according to WTKR. 'When I look at this picture, I see a man who has served six years in our Navy, the mother of this child is prior Army,' she said. The photographer who is married to an active-duty Navy member announced that she has since offered the Clevenger family free photo shoots for life from her company as a way to thank them for their support.

Critics said flag is not a prop and said Mr Clevenger 'disgraced fallen soldiers by disobeying flag code' Hicks hits back saying she is not desecrating flag but using it as symbol to honor the Clevengers' service . </s>

Ed Miliband has vowed to adopt a ‘Turing’s law’ to allow the pardoning of tens of thousands of men convicted of gay sex when it was illegal. Alan Turing, the Second World War codebreaker, was convicted of homosexual activity in 1952 but given a posthumous royal pardon 15 months ago. Since then his relatives have campaigned for the 49,000 men convicted under gross indecency laws to be similarly pardoned. Scroll down for video . Labour leader Ed Miliband has vowed to introduce a new 'Turing's Law' pardoning men convicted of historic gay sex 'offences' like the World War Two hero Alan Turing . Under a law passed by the coalition government, anyone still alive who has a conviction or caution for consensual gay sex can apply to the Home Office to have the offences removed from their records. Mr Miliband has said he will extend this to the families and friends of gay men who received convictions in their lifetime but died before they could apply to have the records changed. The Labour leader told Gay Times that, if elected Prime Minister in May, he would make the matter a priority. The campaign to parden gay men convicted of 'gross indecency' has been backed by celebrities including Hollywood star Benedict Cumberbatch, who played Mr Turing in the Oscar-winning drama The Imitation Game . He said: ‘I think it’s worth saying that we do want to extend the principles being applied to Alan Turing and his family, to be able to say to others who were convicted of a criminal offence simply because of the person that they loved – whether they are alive or no longer alive – that we can get a pardon for them. ‘I think it’s a stain on our society, frankly. I think it’s right what’s been done in relation to Alan Turing and his family, but there are also other families that will have had relatives who were convicted, as I say, simply because of the person they love. 'And I think it’s time we acted for them, too. I think we owe it to the LGBT [Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender] community to make this move.’ Turing died after eating an apple laced with cyanide . On 8 June 1954, Turing's cleaner found him dead. A post-mortem examination established the cause of death was cyanide poisoning. An inquest determined that he had committed suicide, and he was cremated at Woking Crematorium on 12 June. Several scholars, and even his family, have suggested Turing's death was not suicide - and instead either an accident or linked to a conspiracy. When his body was discovered, an apple laid half-eaten next to his bed. It was never tested for cyanide but it is speculated it was the source of the fatal does. Some more peculiar theories suggest Turing was 'obsessed' with fairytale Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and his death was inspired by the poison apple in the story. The theory was supported in an article in The Guardian written by Turing's friend, the author Alan Garner, in 2011. However, later evidence suggested that Turing habitually ate an apple before bed, and it was not unusual for it to be discarded half-eaten. His mother is said to have thought the ingestion was accidental, cause by her son's storage of chemicals in his home. Speaking on the 100th anniversary of Alan Turing's birth on 23rd June 2012, Professor of Philosophy Jack Copeland, University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand, questioned the evidence given to the inquiry in 1954. He said there was no evidence of premeditation - there was no suicide note and he seemed to be in a cheerful mood in the days leading up to his death. He added that Turing's career was at an all time high and that he would not want to intentionally kill himself. He pointer out that his friend Robin Gandy stayed with Turing a week before his death and he remarked how happy Turing seemed . Finally, the academic remarked that the inquest was so bad that Turing could even have been murdered. Although it is is unclear who would have wanted to murder him Mr Copeland said his work at Bletchly Park was under strict secrecy until well after his death. Last week relatives of the mathematician and codebreaker delivered a petition to Downing Street calling for all those convicted under anti-gay laws to be pardoned. Celebrities including Benedict Cumberbatch, who played Turing in the Oscar-winning film The Imitation Game, have also backed the campaign. During the Second World War, Turing was pivotal in cracking the German Enigma codes, which gave vital information about Hitler’s forces. Historians credit the work of Turing and his fellow codebreakers at Bletchley Park in Buckinghamshire with shortening the war by up to two years, saving countless lives. Turing is also widely seen as the father of computer science and artificial intelligence. But in 1952 he was convicted for homosexual activity, which was illegal at the time, after having an affair with a 19-year-old man in Manchester. Turing underwent ‘chemical castration’ as part of his sentence and his conviction led to the removal of his security clearance and meant he was no longer able to work for GCHQ. He died two years later, aged 41, having apparently committed suicide by eating an apple laced with cyanide. In 2013 Turing was granted a royal pardon after a request from Justice Secretary Chris Grayling. Cumberbatch said: ‘Alan Turing was not only prosecuted, but quite arguably persuaded to end his own life early, by a society who called him a criminal for simply seeking out the love he deserved, as all human beings do.’

The captivating motion of various satellites orbiting our planet has been revealed in a fascinating Nasa video. Created by the agency’s Goddard Space Flight Centre in Maryland, it shows their entire Earth-observation fleet and the paths they take around Earth. While the ISS sweeps across ‘diagonally’, in the video at least, others like the Landsat series are seen travelling from pole to pole. Scroll down for video . Nasa scientists in Maryland, US have created a satellite visualisation (shown). It shows dozens of Earth-observing satellites currently orbiting our planet. They include Landsat 7 and 8, part of Nasa's long-serving series. And the ISS can also be seen sweeping diagonally across Earth . The animation solely shows Nasa's Earth-observing satellites, and not any run by other space agencies or private organisations. The satellites measure rainfall, solar irradiance, clouds, sea surface height, ocean salinity and other aspects of the global environment. ‘Together, they provide a picture of the Earth as a system,’ said Nasa. The animation shows the day of 16 February 2015 from 00.00 GMT to 12.00 GMT. While the satellites might look close together, the amount of space in Earth orbit is vast, and there is little to no chance of any colliding. In fact, they are all placed on specific orbits within their orbital bands that ensure the minimal chance possible of colliding with another satellite. This doesn't always go to plan, though. In 2009, a US Iridium satellite and a defunct Russian Cosmos satellite collided, creating hundreds of new pieces of debris in orbit. But the precision of modern satellites is best seen by a quartet of satellites known as the ‘A-train’ - Aqua, Aura, CloudSat and Calipso - which follow each other closely in their orbits. The two closest, Cloudsat and Calipso, are just 12.5 seconds apart, but this equates to 58 miles (93km) in distance. The four satellites work together to provide even better observations of Earth. ‘It’s acting like one satellite with 15 instruments onboard,’ Ernie Wright, an animator at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Centre, told Wired, referring to the 15 instruments shared between them. The Landsat series of satellites have, since 1972, been used to measure Earth’s continental and coastal landscapes at a scale where human impacts and natural changes can be monitored. Shown is an illustration of Landsat 8, which launched on 11 February 2013 . Construction of the ISS began on 20 November 1998. It supports a crew of up to six, with crews split into groups of three. The station orbits at a height of about 255 miles (410km). It has a total mass of about 990,000 pounds (450,000kg) and has living space roughly equivalent to a five-bedroom house. It completes an orbit of Earth every 92.91 minutes and moves at 17,100 miles (27,600km) per hour. It has now been in space for more than 5,900 days, during which time it has completed more than 92,000 orbits of Earth, and has been continuously occupied for more than 13 years. Some satellites, like Landsat 7 and 8, orbit from pole to pole, known as a polar orbit. This allows them to see almost the entirety of Earth as the globe rotates underneath them. The Landsat series of satellites have, since 1972, been used to measure Earth’s continental and coastal landscapes at a scale where human impacts and natural changes can be monitored. The ISS, meanwhile, has a diagonal orbit that keeps it relatively near the equator, which enables various command centres across the world to stay in contact with the crew. Recently launched satellites on the animation include the Soil Moisture Active-Passive (SMAP) mission, which measures the surface soil moisture on Earth, and was launched on 31 January 2015.

Ahead of this weekend's FA Cup action, Sportsmail will be providing you with all you need to know about every fixture, with team news, provisional squads, betting odds and Opta stats. Here is all the information you need for Aston Villa's home quarter-final clash with West Brom... Aston Villa vs West Bromwich Albion (Villa Park) Team news . Aston Villa . Captain Ron Vlaar could return for Aston Villa's FA Cup quarter-final with West Brom as he battles a calf injury. Alan Hutton is suspended after collecting his 10th booking of the season in the 2-1 Barclays Premier League win over the Baggies on Tuesday. Ron Vlaar is set to return after missing Aston Villa's last two matches with a calf injuy . Philippe Senderos has suffered a set-back in his recovery from a calf injury and is sidelined while Kieran Richardson, Aly Cissokho, Nathan Baker and Libor Kozak are out. Provisional squad: Given, Guzan, Lowton, Clark, Vlaar, Okore, Bacuna, Sanchez, Cleverley, Cole, Westwood, Delph, Gil, Sinclair, Grealish, Benteke, Weimann, Agbonlahor. West Brom . West Brom will be without injured forward Victor Anichebe (groin) and cup-tied midfielder Darren Fletcher for Saturday's FA Cup quarter-final at Aston Villa. Albion boss Tony Pulis has said he has a few 'knocks and niggles' in his squad to assess. Winger Callum McManaman (foot) is a doubt, while frontmen Saido Berahino and Brown Ideye have both been playing recently with pain-killing injections. Darren Fletcher played in West Brom's 2-1 defeat at Aston Villa in the Barclays Premier League on Tuesday but cannot feature in the FA Cup clash as the midfielder is cup tied . Pulis also said the club 'have to go careful' with Stephane Sessegnon, with the forward understood to have suffered a family bereavement, and it remains to be seen whether goalkeeper Ben Foster keeps his place after his costly late error in the 2-1 Barclays Premier League loss at Villa Park on Tuesday. Provisional squad: Foster, Myhill, Pocognoli, Wisdom, Lescott, Baird, Dawson, Olsson, McAuley, McManaman, Gamboa, Morrison, Yacob, Mulumbu, Brunt, Gardner, Sessegnon, Berahino, Ideye. Kick-off: Saturday, 5.30pm - BBC One . Odds (subject to change): . Aston Villa 17/10 . Draw 21/10 . West Brom 19/10 . Referee: Neil Swarbrick . Managers: Tim Sherwood (Aston Villa), Tony Pulis (West Brom) Head-to-head FA Cup record: Aston Villa wins 9, draws 3, West Brom wins 3 . Key match stats (supplied by Opta) Aston Villa have won nine of their last 10 home FA Cup matches (L1). West Brom have won only five of their last 19 FA Cup matches against teams from the top two tiers of English football (W5 D7 L7). Saido Berahino has five goals and four assists in three FA Cup appearances this season. Victor Anichebe has scored four goals in his last three starts in the FA Cup.

West Brom will be without injured forward Victor Anichebe (groin) and cup-tied midfielder Darren Fletcher for Saturday's FA Cup quarter-final at Aston Villa.
