train-087792	Today is Tuesday, September 24, 2013. Who was the Transport Minister of Thailand?	Thursday, March 28, 2013. Old school ties key to Australia's role in new order When Thai Transport Minister Chadchart Sittipunt met a group of Australian journalists on a balmy Bangkok afternoon recently, he was quick to offer a share tip to visitors. "You should buy stocks in Cochlear," said Dr Sittipunt, a MIT-educated engineering professor who spent 18 months in Australia 10 years ago as a researcher at the CSIRO. The tip was as much personal as financial. Sittipunt's son had his hearing restored by an Australian medical expert with the aid of a Cochlear implant. He is a believer in the Australian technology, which he said had "changed the lives of many people." As Transport Minister, Sittipunt is overseeing one of the largest infrastructure projects in the country's history, worth $67 billion. He is also one of many south-east Asian political and business elites with ties to Australia. These Australian alumni can be found in the corridors of power across the region, from the presidential palace in Singapore to executive suites in Bangkok. Even Maha Vajiralongkorn, the future King of Thailand, is a product of the famous old King's School in Sydney and the Royal Military College at Duntroon. Brian Rogers, an Australian automotive executive based in Bangkok, said Thai alumni from Geelong Grammar could be found in many senior business positions in the country. Together, these people form a crucial nexus linking Australia with the world's most economically dynamic region. However, it is not clear whether the government or the business community is making best use of this valuable human asset, which is dwindling as the younger generation of Asian leaders turn to better known universities in the US and Europe for education. For years, countries and educational institutions have cultivated their alumni for political and business advantages. Joseph Nye, the man who coined the term "soft power" - the ability to attract rather than coerce, use force or give money as a means of persuasion - says: "Most of China's leaders have a son or daughter educated in the US who can portray a realistic view of the US that is often at odds with the caricatures in official Chinese propaganda." Ivy League universities such as Harvard and Yale have built vast fortunes on the back of their active alumni fund-raising programs. Harvard alone has a $US31 billion war chest at its disposal to lure the best talent to its campus. Britain and the US are courting future political, business and academic leaders around the world through famous scholarship schemes such as Rhodes, Fulbright and Marshall. It is said that the special Anglo-American relationship is built on the back of Oxonians from both countries reminiscing about the good old days spent rowing on the Isis or drinking sherry at Magdalen College. Australia has a large network of alumni in the region that is crying out to be nurtured and developed. This is an area where private firms such as Baker & McKenzie can teach the country a few lessons. The managing partner of Baker & McKenzie in Australia, Chris Freeland, said the country must take a more proactive approach in courting Asian leaders educated in Australia. "Why isn't there someone in the government tracking where these people end up?" he said. He says many companies in the private sector keep tabs on their alumni and invite them to functions regularly. "Some alumni are our most important clients and it is in our interest to treat them very well," he said. Freeland suggested the government should fly 100 top Asian alumni to Canberra or Sydney for a two-day roadshow every year, keeping them up to date on what is happening in Australia. If we bring in the Indonesian Trade Minister, Mongolian Finance Minister and some Malaysian cabinet ministers [all Australian alumni], what a great dialogue they would have between themselves and we can impose the Australian dimension. It could be incredibly powerful. Freeland's recommendation is a simple and practical way of implementing one of the key objectives of the government's Asian Century white paper - building people to people links. This point has been recognised belatedly in the government's white paper. "We will strengthen the extensive alumni networks of Australian-educated leaders in Asia by providing a focal point for co-ordinating the networks through an Australia Awards Office," says the paper. Establishing a co-ordination office is a good starting point but diplomats, business people and educators must develop strong awareness of this important human nexus. National Australia Bank's chief executive for Asia, Spiro Pappas, says the bank plays to natural ties between wealthy Asians and Australia as part of its strategy. He says his Singaporean doctor, dentist and chiropractor were all educated in Australia and have relatives living in Sydney, Melbourne and Perth. "There are a lot of wealthy Asians with a strong affinity to Australia," he says. The business community as a whole needs to do more to develop people-to-people links with our most important neighbours. Ross Gittins is on leave.

train-004887	Today is Friday, March 7, 2014. Where will the first test between Australia and South Africa be held?	Monday, February 10, 2014. Unless Australia starts scoring when first batting there's unlikely to be any second chances Brad Haddin takes on the bowling of Ben Stokes during the fifth Test against England at the SCG. THERE are Ashes statistics and then there are the stats that Australia must overcome to beat top-ranked South Africa. Australia's 5-0 whitewash of England included some great escapes which a more vigilant and venomous South Africa will not allow in their own back yard. Haddin hits a controlled shot in the air. The chance of claiming Ashes glory was handed to Australia's bowlers, thanks to the brilliant batting of resurrected veteran Brad Haddin and growing maturity of the team's youngest player, Steve Smith. Haddin agrees that despite a 5-0 whitewash of England, Australia must improve to beat South Africa. "We can't just rest on what we've done against England," Haddin said before training on Monday. Yes, that was exciting but now it's a totally different beast we're trying to tame here. I'd like us to keep scoring two hundreds per Test as it averaged out in Australia but obviously we need to get first innings runs. That's one of the areas we need to improve on. That's no secret. Haddin's 342 first-day runs at 86 was complimented by a first innings top score of 65 in Melbourne during the only Test when Australia batted second. Of the 10 centuries scored by Australians four were in the first innings and two were made by Smith when Australia was in trouble. Haddin and captain Michael Clarke made the other two in Adelaide. George Bailey lost his spot because of a string of poor first innings performances. He made single figures in Australia's four bad first innings collapses during the series, with 53 in Adelaide the only score that really mattered when the game was in the balance. David Warner topped the Ashes run-scoring with 523 at 58. He would have had three centuries in the first three Tests had Clarke not declared in Adelaide for fear of rain with Warner unbeaten on 83. The dynamic left hander twisted the knife with some brutal displays when Australia was in control of the match. It was Haddin who continually wrested those controls back from England, deflating the tourists before Australia's bowlers eventually decapitated them. Brad Haddin keeps his head still and eyes on the ball in cracking a shot on to the offside. But South Africa at home are certain to be made of such sterner stuff than a remarkably frail England. Australia was 5-143 or worse in four of its five first innings but still managed to play England out of each Test. South Africa's exceptional pace attack will not let such a tight noose slacken so quickly. Not only will South Africa's highly rated attack of Dale Steyn, Vernon Philander and Morne Morkel provide a far more serious examination of the Australian batting than a dispirited England, the Centurion Park pitch for the first Test, beginning on Wednesday, will only add to that trial after recent heavy rain. Curator Hilbert Smith defended his green strip. "We had a lot of people here last week saying "where is the pitch!? What about these blokes, they haven't even started preparing it!,"" Smit said. David Warner says wet weather hasn't put a dampener on preparations for next week's first test against South Africa, but the opener is concerned with the condition of the Centurion pitch. David Warner: 523 runs - 58 average Brad Haddin: 493 runs - 62 average Chris Rogers: 463 runs - 46 average Michael Clarke: 363 runs - 40 average Shane Watson: 345 runs - 38 average Steve Smith: 327 runs - 41 average Brad Haddin: 342 runs - 86 average Steve Smith: 263 runs - 66 average Michael Clarke: 183 runs - 46 average David Warner: 154 runs - 39 average Shane Watson: 134 runs - 34 average Mitchell Johnson: 120 runs - 30 average	[ "the Centurion pitch" ]	streamingqa	2014-03-07T08:00:00	2014-02-10T08:00:00	{"dimensions": [{"type": "entity", "value": "Australia", "normalized": "Australia national cricket team", "criticality": "high", "reason": "Different team would have a different match location"}, {"type": "entity", "value": "South Africa", "normalized": "South Africa national cricket team", "criticality": "high", "reason": "Different team would change the match context and location"}, {"type": "event", "value": "first test", "normalized": "first Test match", "criticality": "high", "reason": "Specifies the exact match type and stage; different test would have different venue"}, {"type": "spatial", "value": "Where", "normalized": "location", "criticality": "high", "reason": "Directly asks for a geographic location, which is the core of the answer"}], "question_type": "factoid", "has_critical_dimensions": true}	false	Where will the first test between Australia and South Africa be held?
train-071726	Today is Sunday, June 29, 2008. When was the New York Police Department study commissioned?	Monday, June 9, 2008. Police Need More Weapons Training, Study Says Newly minted police recruits as well as veterans require more dynamic and frequent firearms training, according to a study of the New York Police Department's shooting habits released on Monday. The study, by the Rand Corporation, was commissioned in January 2007, about seven weeks after an unarmed Queens man died in a hail of 50 police bullets. Police Commissioner Raymond W. Kelly said at the time that questions about the department's effectiveness and training required an independent look at its tactics. Rand researchers tried to tackle the phenomenon known as "reflexive shooting" or contagious shooting in which one officers" gunshots spur a fusillade of bullets by others. The study recommended that the department add "reflexive shooting scenarios that include a stimulus or the sound of gunfire, to sensitize officers to cues that may no be reliable and to teach them that such cues may generate unwanted responses," among other things. Besides training, the Rand group recommended that the department more readily deploy less-than-lethal devices in potentially deadly encounters, with an aim of causing less harm to civilians and officers. Specifically, the authors of the 114-page study said the department should implement a pilot program to expand the availability of Taser devices to all patrol officers in selected precincts with an eye toward having everyone on patrol carry them. Already, certain supervisors carry Taser weapons.

train-028723	Today is Friday, May 22, 2015. When was the Revictimization Relief Act introduced?	Tuesday, May 5, 2015. Pennsylvania Court strikes down law aimed at keeping convicts out of public eye - RT USA Published time: May 05, 2015 03:15 Edited time: May 05, 2015 04:51 Mumia Abu-Jamal (C) (Reuters) A federal court in Pennsylvania overturned the Revictimization Relief Act, which aimed to ban convicted criminals from speaking publicly. The federal district court on Monday said the statute introduced by lawmakers violated the first amendment rights of one-time death row inmate Mumia Abu-Jamal and other prisoners. The law was introduced in response to Abu-Jamal's appearance at a Goddard College commencement address in Vermont in October 2014. READ MORE: Poor training resulted in more than 400 shootings by Philadelphia police - Justice Dept The fact that certain plaintiffs have been convicted of infamous or violent crimes is largely irrelevant to our first amendment analysis. A past criminal offense does not extinguish the offender's constitutional right to free expression," Judge Christopher Conner wrote. The First Amendment does not evanesce at the prison gate. Judge Conner wrote the law was unconstitutionally vague and overbroad. He worried that it would deter not only the speech of convicted criminals, but also people who redistribute speech such as producers quoting criminals in radio programs or newspapers publishing interviews with criminals. Conner said a law restricting expression based on content was "inherently suspect." Attorney Eli Segal and the American Civil Liberties Union, who brought suit against the law, told the Associated Press that the decision "says loud and clear that all of us in this commonwealth have the right to freedom of speech." Steve Miskin, the spokesman for the Pennsylvania House GOP leadership told AP that Conner's ruling "is woefully short of the fact. It begs the question: Did he even read the law? "The point of the law was to look out for victims," he added. The Revictimization Relief Act, passed by Pennsylvania lawmakers in October 2014, said a victim of a personal injury crime may bring a civil action against an offender to restrict them from conduct that could perpetuate the continuing effect of the crime on the victim, including conduct causing a temporary or permanent state of mental anguish. READ MORE: Hundreds rally on DC streets for Mumia Abu Jamal's release Mumia Abu-Jamal, an American activist and journalist, was convicted in 1982 for the 1981 murder of Pennsylvania Police Officer Daniel Faulkner. He was on death row for 30 years before appeals converted his death penalty to life without parole. Abu-Jamal claims he is a victim of a racist justice system. The Faulkner family, public authorities, police organizations and self-described conservative groups have maintained that Abu-Jamal's trial was fair, his guilt undeniable, and his death sentence appropriate. Earlier this year, Tom Wolf, the Governor of Pennsylvania, offered the state's 186 death row inmates temporary reprieves from execution, calling the system "error prone, expensive and anything but useful." READ MORE: Pennsylvania governor declares moratorium on "unjust" death penalty Wolf said that if the state is going to "take the irrevocable step of executing a human being, its capital sentencing system must be infallible." He said the system was riddled with flaws and studies had called into question the accuracy and fundamental fairness of Pennsylvania's capital sentencing system. The studies suggested there were inherent biases indicating that a person is more likely to be charged with a capital offense and sentenced to death row if he is poor or part of a minority racial group; especially so if the victim of the crime was white.

train-019236	Today is Wednesday, October 29, 2014. Who is the CEO of Yahoo?	Wednesday, October 22, 2014. Yahoo profits surge on earnings from Alibaba sale 21 October 2014 Last updated at 21:43 Technology giant Yahoo has reported profits of $6.8bn (£4.2bn) for the three months to September, buoyed by earnings from the firm's stake in Alibaba. Yahoo was required to sell part of its stake ahead of the Chinese firm's stock market floatation, netting it $6.3bn. That made up for a continuing fall in advertising sales at Yahoo. The search company has struggled to maintain market share against rivals like Google. Revenue from ads decreased by 5%. But overall revenues increase by 1% to $1.15bn from the same period a year earlier, and despite the lion's share of its earnings coming from Alibaba, Yahoo's numbers were better than expected, cheering investors. Shares in the technology giant rose over 2% in after-hours trading, following the close of the US markets. Mobile boost In a statement accompanying the earnings release, Yahoo's chief executive Marissa Mayer touted the firm's investments in its mobile offerings. "We have invested deeply in mobile and we are seeing those investments pay off," she said. Not only are our mobile products attracting praise and engagement from users and industry awards, they are generating meaningful revenue for Yahoo. Yahoo said revenue from its mobile products was over $200m for the quarter, and estimated that mobile revenues could top $1.2bn by the end of the year. Ms Mayer has been under pressure from investors and analysts to demonstrate that Yahoo can continue to grow now that it no longer has a significant stake in Alibaba, which had been providing a steady stream of revenue to the company.

train-048915	Today is Wednesday, August 13, 2008. Where are the continuous agitation bottle roll testing being performed at RDI's testing facilities?	Monday, July 21, 2008. Bear Creek announces drilling continues to intersect high-grade silver, mineralized footprint expands, and metallurgical testing continues to show high leach recoveries at Santa Ana, Peru VANCOUVER, July 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Bear Creek Mining (TSX Venture: BCM) ("Bear Creek" or the "Company") is pleased to announce results for 27 additional diamond drill holes (4,643 meters). Drilling at Santa Ana now totals 45,946 meters in 251 drill holes. Santa Ana is located in southeastern Peru 200 kilometers south of the Company's Corani silver-base metal deposit which is currently advancing under pre-feasibility studies. Highlights of this press release include: Andrew Swarthout, President and CEO of Bear Creek, states "We are extremely pleased that recent drilling results verify higher-grade, leachable silver mineralization occurs in at least two zones with excellent continuity, which have the potential to provide the basis for robust starter pits. These higher grade zones with large tonnages developing in the 90 g/t silver range provide confidence that Santa Ana can become as important economically to Bear Creek as our Corani silver-base metal deposit which is currently in pre-feasibility stage. Mr. Swarthout continues "Exploration upside also remains an exciting opportunity at Santa Ana as the deposit remains open. For instance, many of these latest higher grade zones were discovered beneath surface expressions with little evidence of the existence of silver mineralization; supporting our thesis that additional hidden or "blind" discoveries will continue to be made. In addition, two of the better holes (SA-138 and SA-139) are located well beyond the current resource boundary also indicating significant remaining growth potential throughout the still under-explored district. One-hundred-fifty-six drill holes have been now been completed since the first resource estimate in January 2008. We are very excited to be able to soon see the effects of this recent drilling on the resources, both in size and grade, as we prepare for updating the model in September. New drilling results are as follow. All intercepts are down-hole lengths and true widths have not been calculated. (Full drill results can be found at www.bearcreekmining.com. To access the silver drill hole map directly please refer to http://www.bearcreekmining.com/i/pdf/072108map.pdf Close-spaced drilling on 25 x 50 m centers has been completed on eight lines spaced throughout the mineralized area. An additional four detailed lines are planned and will be drilled over the coming weeks. New holes in this report, including SA-124, SA-133, SA-135 and SA-138 located on three separate lines, demonstrate that drilling on 25 x 50-meter centers will continue to: Further improve the project economics by intersecting additional blind, high-grade silver mineralization that wider-spaced drilling might miss; - Establish continuity of mineralization, converting inferred resources into measured and indicated resources; and - Convert blocks that were considered to be waste into mineralized material and reduce the stripping ratio as drilling density increases and expansion drilling continues. Another extension of a significant structural corridor to the southwest of the current resource was intersected in hole SA-139 with intervals of 22 m @ 242 g/t Ag, 14 m @ 183 g/t Ag and 6 m @ 284 g/t Ag. The drill hole extends the mineralization 300 meters southwest of the first resource estimate, and mineralization remains open. Three drills continue on the property completing close-spaced infill and deposit extension drilling. Currently, two drills are focusing on confirming and expanding higher-grade silver zones with the objective of defining plus 90 g/t silver bodies. The third drill is following new extensions, such as the one discovered by drill holes SA-139 and SA-138. Metallurgy-ongoing leach testing continues to support high recoveries in heap leach conditions in all areas explored to date and across all silver grade ranges. As reported, column leach testing performed at McClelland Laboratories indicates that greater than 70% silver recoveries can be expected in a heap leach (see news release dated Feb 25, 2008). Continuous agitation bottle roll testing being performed at RDI's testing facilities in Denver, Colorado indicate similar leaching characteristics to the columns throughout the deposits. Additional column testing will be performed in the pre-feasibility stages of the project to further confirm recoveries. A second resource estimate is planned for release in September and will include approximately 156 additional drill holes, over double the number used in the first resource estimate of January 2008. All of Bear Creek's exploration programs and pertinent disclosure of a technical or scientific nature are prepared by or prepared under the direct supervision of David Volkert, P.Geo., Bear Creek's Vice President of Exploration and/or Marc Leduc, P. Eng., Vice President of Technical Services and the President and CEO, Andrew Swarthout, P.Geo., who serve as the Qualified Persons under the definitions of NI 43-101. All diamond drilling has been performed using HQ diameter core with recoveries averaging greater than 95%. Core is logged and split on site under the supervision of Bear Creek geologists. Sampling is done on two-meter intervals and samples are transported by Company staff to Juliaca, Peru for direct shipping to ALS Chemex, Laboratories in Lima, Peru. ALS Chemex is an ISO 9001:2000-registered laboratory and is preparing for ISO 17025 certification. Silver, lead, and zinc assays utilize a multi-acid digestion with atomic absorption ("ore-grade assay method"). The QC/QA program includes the insertion every 20th sample of known standards prepared by SGS Laboratories, Lima. A section in Bear Creek's website is dedicated to sampling, assay and quality control procedures.

Thursday, March 6, 2014. Jobless claims fall to 3-month low WASHINGTON, March 6 (UPI) -- Initial claims for jobless benefits for the week ending March 1 fell by 26,000 to a seasonally adjusted 323,000, the lowest level since November. The Department of Labor weekly claims report suggests that companies are retaining more employees, even though a harsh winter threatened to slow down economic growth. The number of claims for unemployment benefits were less than the forecast of 335,000 made by analysts. The number of continuing benefits claims -- those drawn by workers for more than a week -- also fell by 8,000 to 2,907,000 for the week ending Feb. 22. Analysts will be closely watching Friday's hiring numbers -- analysts calculate that employers added 152,000 jobs in February -- which coupled with fewer layoffs could signal a recovery in the labor market. This could help pick up the economy, lethargic after unusually harsh winter weather, and also increase investor and consumer confidence. These numbers are critical, as they are closely being watched by the Federal Reserve, which has said that will decide how to reduce their bond-buying program based labor market indicators.

train-082606	Today is Tuesday, April 29, 2008. When was Rafael Soriano traded?	Thursday, January 24, 2008. Soriano, Braves Reach $9M, 2-Year Deal ATLANTA (AP) - Relief pitcher Rafael Soriano and the Atlanta Braves agreed Thursday to a $9 million, two-year contract that avoided arbitration. The Braves plan to make Soriano their closer this season. He went 3-3 with a 3.00 ERA and nine saves in a career-high 71 appearances last year, holding opponents to a .181 batting average. The right-hander would have been eligible for free agency after the 2008 season. "We are very excited to be able to keep Rafael for two more seasons," Atlanta general manager Frank Wren said. Rafael was an important part of our bullpen last year, and based on his performance over the last two seasons, he will now have an even more important role for us in 2008 as our closer. Soriano was acquired in a December 2006 trade with Seattle for left- hander Horacio Ramirez. When arbitration figures were exchanged last week, Soriano asked for $3.4 million and the Braves offered $2.4 million. He made $1.3 million last season. The Braves have agreed to contracts with all six of their players who filed for arbitration. Soriano gets salaries of $2.4 million this year and $6.1 million in plus a $500,000 signing bonus.

train-034950	Today is Wednesday, August 21, 2013. What was the minimum sentence imposed on Sean Lee King?	Tuesday, August 6, 2013. NSW murderer's friend avoids jail term A FRIEND of a man who murdered his teenage girlfriend says he didn't tell police about the attack because he was scared his tongue would be ripped out with bolt cutters. Adam Dark spent five days with convicted murderer Sean Lee King after the brutal 2011 killing, giving his friend "comfort and support." But he was also in fear of King and his stepfather. In a recorded phone call a few months later, Dark's father told him he should have gone to police straight away with what he knew. "If I open my f*in' mouth they've got bolt cutters to cut my fin' tongue out," Dark replied, adding King's stepfather was a "dangerous motherf**er" with ties to bikies. He also told his girlfriend King's family had instructed him not to say anything about that night and he didn't want to "rat Kingy out." Dark has avoided jail after a Sydney District Court judge sentenced him to an 18-month good behaviour bond for failing to tell police about King's attack on 18-year-old Jazmin-Jean Ajbschitz. King, 27, beat Ms Ajbschitz to death in a ferocious, drug-fuelled murder - kicking and hitting her with three different objects, dragging her bruised and bloodied around her apartment and stomping on her chest until her heart stopped. He was jailed for at least 25 and a half years last month after a Supreme Court jury found him guilty of murder. Dark pleaded guilty to being an accessory after assault occasioning actual bodily harm. King's trial heard he and Dark drove together to Ms Ajbschitz's apartment at Ultimo and wandered through the security building looking for her. They then went to a nearby convenience store where Dark remained, while King, who was high on ice, returned to the apartment and persuaded Ms Ajbschitz to let him in. During the next 26 minutes, King beat Ms Ajbschitz to death, leaving her partially clothed body on the kitchen floor before returning to Dark and telling him to call an ambulance. He told Dark they had had a "little argument" and he hit Ms Ajbschitz, causing her to hit her head on a book case. Dark anonymously called for an ambulance, telling the operator, "I heard some screams," but gave the wrong address and paramedics were unable to find Ms Ajbschitz.

train-074687	Today is Saturday, November 28, 2009. When will the Obama campaign expect to reach the 1,627 figure needed for an overall majority of elected delegates?	Friday, May 9, 2008. Democrats are moving on decisively from their long debate about whether Barack Obama will be their presidential nominee. Instead, the party is now asking when Hillary Clinton will admit defeat and - more importantly - how she might quit the race. Mrs Clinton, for the moment, remains defiant and indefatigable. She campaigned across three time zones in West Virginia, South Dakota and Oregon yesterday, pressing her case that she remains the strongest general election candidate against John McCain, the Republican. In a newspaper interview she unashamedly pointed out that Mr Obama, on the brink of becoming the first black American presidential nominee, has failed to win over the white vote. "I have a much broader base to build a winning coalition on," she said, citing exit polls from the primaries this week that show "Senator Obama's support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening again - there's a pattern emerging here." Mrs Clinton has refrained from repeating the attacks on Mr Obama's policies, character and judgment that featured prominently in her campaign over the past two months. In their place are frequent notes of grace and repeated promises that she will help to unite the party when the race is over. Much of the Democratic party leadership is thought to be content for the contest to continue, perhaps all the way to the final primaries on June 3, on condition that it is not scarred by negative attacks that would damage their party's prospects of retaking the White House in November. Senator Dianne Feinstein, one of the leading supporters of Mrs Clinton who on Wednesday had expressed fears that a prolonged campaign might cause "strife within the party," yesterday appeared reassured after a meeting with the candidate. "Her strategy is to win this," she said. And she's entitled to her opportunity to try. A currently unpledged Congressman, Mike Doyle, said: "I think most of us - out of respect for her - are content to wait a little longer." Mr Obama is reported to have issued strict orders to his supporters to give Mrs Clinton time and space in which to make her decision. In interviews yesterday he heaped praise on his rival and conceded that she was likely to win the primary in the overwhelming white state of West Virginia next week. But he said that the primaries in Kentucky and Oregon on May 20 - when his campaign expects to reach the 1,627 figure needed for an overall majority of elected delegates - "will be an important day." Some members of Mrs Clinton's inner circle are still determined that she should hang on until May 31, when the Democratic rules committee will decide what to do with the 366 delegates from disputed primaries in Florida and Michigan. Although these results - even if counted in full - would only trim Mr Obama's delegate lead, they would enable Mrs Clinton to appeal for support from the 250 or so uncommitted super-delegates on the grounds that she was ahead in the popular vote. Mrs Clinton wrote to Mr Obama yesterday urging him to respect the wishes of the 2.5 million people who voted in Florida and Michigan, saying that otherwise, "whoever emerges as the Democratic nominee will be hamstrung in the general election" - when both states are certain to be key battlegrounds. With the cover of Time magazine yesterday declaring Mr Obama as the winner there have been suggestions that Mrs Clinton is in denial about her campaign being over. She dismissed such talk as the latest effort to write her off. It was "déjà vu all over again," she told crowds. Some claim that she is fighting on because she wants Mr Obama's help in paying off campaign debts that are estimated at up to $20 million (£10 million). Others suspect that Mrs Clinton is seeking to strike a deal by which she is given the vice-presidential slot. This would require Mr Obama to make peace with a woman who is believed to have personally riled him with some of her attacks in recent weeks. But he may yet need to, with deep divisions on class, age and gender - as well as race - opening up within the Democratic electorate during this nomination contest. Exit polls from North Carolina and Indiana showed that half of Mrs Clinton's supporters would not vote for Mr Obama in the general election in November. There is also deep bitterness among Democratic activists. A number of bloggers sympathetic to Mrs Clinton are boycotting the popular liberal website, the Daily Kos, because of what they claim is the venomous abuse and hostility from supporters of Mr Obama. Mr Obama yesterday acknowledged "we have a lot of work to do to bring the party together." Asked if Mrs Clinton would be his running mate, he replied that such talk was "presumptuous" until the primary process was over, but added: "She would be on anyone's shortlist to be vice-presidential nominee."

train-001648	Today is Tuesday, September 13, 2011. When will the revenue of IG Group reach £94m?	Monday, August 22, 2011. IG benefits from volatile markets Growing numbers of gamblers keen for a flutter in the recent volatile markets have boosted revenues at IG Group, driving up shares in the spreadbetting company. The FTSE 250 group on Monday said that the summer holiday period had failed to deter customers from gambling on market activity, pushing up client activity to record levels. London-based IG said the higher levels of gambling had prompted the spreadbetting company to buoy its expected revenues for the quarter to August 31 by at least 19 per cent to £94m. This compares with revenues of £79.1m in the same period last year, IG said. Shares in IG, which has operations in 15 countries including Australia, Singapore, China and the US, responded to the news by rising by 4.3 per cent, or 17p, to 410.6p in early London trading. Financial spreadbetting - where punters can gamble on fluctuations in the price of commonly-traded assets including currencies, commodities and stocks - has the advantage of gains being free from tax, but is potentially higher risk as investors can lose more than their initial stake. Spreadbetting groups such as IG, City Index and CMC Markets benefited from the growing popularity of smartphones, which allow customers to gamble while away from the office or home. The groups have launched apps for iPhones, BlackBerrys and Google Android phones, as well as apps for tablets such as Apple's iPad. James Hollins, an analyst at Evolution Securities, said it was premature to raise his full-year estimates on the group, but retained his "buy" recommendation on the shares. "The stock has been weak recently, principally based on the threat of the introduction of a European Union financial transactions tax," Mr Hollins said. We do not think the German/French proposed EU financial transactions tax will be introduced any time soon and, further, IG could potentially take action to negate the tax. The stronger revenues at IG will come as welcome news after the spreadbetting group was earlier this year hit by a £4m levy as part of the cost of compensating investors who lost money in the collapse of Keydata, the specialist UK investment firm. The £4m levy was IG's share of a £326m levy required of financial services groups by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme to fund compensation claims from customers of defaulting investment firms. Nearly 30,000 investors were left out of pocket when Keydata went into administration in 2009. However the £326m levy on the investment industry was so large the FSCS had to pass most of the costs on to fund managers. Last month IG reported full-year results in line with expectations, with net trading revenue up 7.3 per cent to £320.4m, but pre-tax profit fell from £140.3m to just £7m after it took a £143m write-off relating to its Japanese business in January.

train-050695	Today is Saturday, April 16, 2016. When did Sunderland concede their 13th league goal this season?	Sunday, September 27, 2015. BBC Sport - Manchester United 3-0 Sunderland Manchester United climbed to the top of the Premier League table for the first time in more than two years with victory over bottom club Sunderland. Memphis Depay scored his fourth goal of the season by tucking in from Juan Mata's cut-back just before half time. United doubled their lead 40 seconds after the break as Wayne Rooney bundled home from close range to end an 11-game scoring drought in the Premier League. Mata then converted Ashley Young's cross as Sunderland remained bottom. Until Depay slid in the opener in first-half stoppage time, the hosts looked ponderous in attack but once they went 2-0 up after good work from Anthony Martial, Sunderland had little to offer in response. Very nice feeling to be top - Louis Van Gaal Rooney's fifth goal of the season took him level with Denis Law as United's joint-third leading league scorer with 171, and ended his longest barren spell in the Premier League which stretched to 1,000 minutes. David De Gea was rarely troubled but made good saves from Jeremain Lens and Patrick van Aanholt, with United having conceded just once in the league at home this season. Follow all the reaction to Saturday's Premier League games Relive Manchester United's win over Sunderland United stutter to the top Advocaat praises 'world class' De Gea This victory was another fillip for United boss Louis van Gaal, who has been questioned about a lack of incisiveness in United's play this season. His side now top the Premier League after Manchester City's defeat by Tottenham earlier on Saturday. Despite rarely being tested by Sunderland, the hosts struggled to open up Dick Advocaat's side in a lacklustre first period, with the game turning in the two minutes either side of the break. That allowed the likes of Rooney and Mata more space to influence the game, but much of United's endeavour relied on the pace and trickery of Martial and Depay, who, at times, bullied the Sunderland backline. There is a growing theme to United's performances; they may not be thrilling but they are proving hard to beat. The Red Devils lead Manchester City by a point as they target their first Premier League title since 2013. Rooney on an upward curve Memphis Depay's goal was his first in the Premier League Rooney does not look back to his best, but after scoring in the League Cup win over Ipswich in midweek, he showed his goalscoring prowess remains a vital weapon for United. There were signs he is forming a good partnership with Martial. Although his Premier League drought stretched back to April last season, he was quick to gamble at the near post when Martial caused havoc in the Sunderland defence, scoring his seventh goal of the season for club and country. Rooney looks more suited to the number 10 role behind lone striker Martial, who has scored four goals in his opening four games for the club. And with the teenager's pace and strength creating space ahead of him, Rooney could yet find the sort of form he did playing behind Robin van Persie in the 2012-2013 title-winning season. Sunderland's woes continue Lee Cattermole gained possession more than any other player on the pitch, making five interceptions (blue), four tackles (green), and three blocks (yellow) Advocaat, who played alongside Van Gaal for Sparta Rotterdam in the 1980s, had lost only once to his friend in their 10 previous meetings, and for much of the first half it looked as though he might extend that record. Having seen his team concede 10 of their 13 league goals in the first half of matches, Advocaat set up the Black Cats to defend, and they were agonisingly close to going into the break at 0-0. But Depay's strike broke their resolve and Rooney's goal seemed to destroy any confidence that may have remained. Although De Gea was called into action on a few occasions, Sunderland midfielder Lee Cattermole lacked any meaningful support as he made an aggressive return to the side. Defeat leaves Sunderland still searching for their first league win of the season, with games against West Ham and West Brom next before they face arch-rivals and fellow strugglers Newcastle on 25 October. Man of the match: Anthony Martial Anthony Martial set up Wayne Rooney's goal and was a menace to the Sunderland defence Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal: "It's a nice feeling to be top of the table. It's the first time in my period so I'm happy. It's always difficult when you play against a team who is only defending and counting on the counter attack. You have to be aware and my defence was very good. I was very happy with the goal in extra time because they punished themselves. They were always wasting time and the referee was not reacting to that. A goal is the biggest influence in a game and I changed my approach at half-time because of that. Sunderland boss Dick Advocaat: "The first half we did well, organisation wise, but the problem was they scored one minute before half-time and one minute after half-time. United were the better side but they didn't create a lot of chances. It's a shame we gave that goal away in the first half because it made things different in the second half. Van Gaal recorded his first win in nine games against a side managed by Advocaat. Only two players - Bobby Charlton (199) and Jack Rowley (182) - have more league goals for Man Utd than Rooney (171). Mata has either scored or assisted in five of his past six Premier League appearances (four assists, two goals). After keeping three consecutive clean sheets in May, the Black Cats have conceded in each of their past eight Premier League matches. The Black Cats are now on a 10-game winless streak in the Premier League (D4 L6); the longest current run in the competition. What next for Manchester United? Van Gaal will hope a third consecutive victory can boost their Champions League hopes when they host Wolfsburg on Wednesday, having lost their opener against PSV Eindhoven. United then travel to Arsenal and Everton in the Premier League, either side of the international break. 17 Blind (Jones - 74') 16 Carrick (Schweinsteiger - 68') 07 Depay (Young - 77') 04 Jones 44 Pereira 01 Pantilimon 02 Jones Booked 16 O'Shea 15 Kaboul 03 van Aanholt 06 Cattermole Booked 11 Johnson Booked (Fletcher - 45') 21 M'Vila 20 Toivonen (Larsson - 70') 17 Lens 09 Borini 07 Larsson 14 Jordi Gómez 18 Defoe 22 Coates 24 Yedlin 25 Mannone 26 Fletcher	[ "the first half" ]	streamingqa	2016-04-16T07:00:00	2015-09-27T07:00:00	{"dimensions": [{"type": "entity", "value": "Sunderland", "normalized": "Sunderland AFC", "criticality": "high", "reason": "Different team would have different goal records"}, {"type": "temporal", "value": "this season", "normalized": "current season (context: April 2016)", "criticality": "high", "reason": "The season changes annually, affecting the timeline of goals"}, {"type": "event", "value": "concede their 13th league goal", "normalized": "13th league goal conceded", "criticality": "high", "reason": "The specific goal number defines the exact event being queried"}], "question_type": "temporal", "has_critical_dimensions": true}	false	When did Sunderland concede their 13th league goal this season?
train-009085	Today is Friday, July 13, 2012. Where are the acts of violence committed by Joseph Kony and the Lord's Resistance Army continuing?	Friday, June 15, 2012. New International War Crimes Prosecutor Sworn In The International Criminal Court installed Gambian war crimes lawyer Fatou Bensouda as its new prosecutor for a nine-year term on Friday. Bensounda replaces Luis Moreno-Ocampo in a job that has become one of the most prominent in international law over the past decade. She will be tasked with trying to bring to justice alleged war criminals including Uganda's Joseph Kony, Libya's Seif al-Islam Gadhafi, and Sudanese president Omar al-Bashir. In an address to the court, Bensouda said she was "humbled" by her appointment, and promised to continue pursuing all cases that fall under the court's jurisdiction. "As I speak, massive crimes continue to be committed in Darfur (Sudan); Joseph Kony and the Lord's Resistance Army's acts of violence continue unabated in central Africa," she said. Nothing short of arresting all those against whom warrants have been issued will ensure that justice is done for millions of victims of the crimes committed by these fugitives. Court President Sang-Hyun Song oversaw Bensouda's acceptance of the prosecutor's duties in a courtroom in a suburb of the Hague, Netherlands. The International Criminal Court was founded in 2002 as the permanent successor to numerous ad-hoc war crimes tribunals set up over the past two decades such as the U.N. Yugoslav tribunal and the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda. Bensouda has served as deputy prosecutor at the tribunal since 2004. In her address, Bensouda noted that Moreno-Ocampo set up the prosecutor's office in 2003 with "two staff members...six empty floors and no cases ongoing." I inherit a well-respected and sound functioning office, with almost 300 staff from 80 countries, seven situations under investigation, 14 cases before the chambers, seven preliminary examinations and one verdict. In March, trial judges handed down its first conviction, that of Congolese warlord Thomas Lubanga, for conscripting child soldiers. He awaits sentencing. Moreno-Ocampo, who was present Friday for Bensouda's swearing-in, is expected to take a job with FIFA, the international football (soccer) governing body, investigating corruption in the sport.

"Gone Girl" author Gillian Flynn writing new twist on "Hamlet" The author who penned the bestseller "Gone Girl" is set to tackle the Bard. Gillian Flynn is joining a list of authors commissioned to write new twists on William Shakespeare's works. She'll pen a novel inspired by "Hamlet" for the series for Random House's Hogarth imprint. "'Hamlet' has long been a fascination of mine: murder, betrayal, revenge, deceit, madness -- all my favorite things," Flynn said in a statement. Add to that some of Shakespeare's most intriguing, curious characters -- from the titular brooding prince to rueful Ophelia -- and what (slightly cheeky) writer wouldn't be tempted to reimagine it? The series is launching in 2016, to coincide with the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's death. Other writers who have signed on for the project include Margaret Atwood ("The Tempest"), Tracy Chevalier ("Othello"), Howard Jacobson ("The Merchant of Venice"), Jo Nesbo ("Macbeth"), Anne Tyler ("The Taming of the Shrew") and Jeanette Winterson ("The Winter's Tale"). The film adaptation of Flynn's "Gone Girl," starring Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike, arrives in theaters this fall.

Police found Karlie Pearce-Stevenson's bank card in Daniel Holdom's possession. ACCUSED killer Daniel Holdom was found in possession of Karlie Pearce-Stevenson's bank card more than four years after he allegedly murdered her in Belanglo State Forest in NSW. The revelation came as police spent four hours questioning the 41-year-old's former girlfriend, wheelchair-bound Hazel Passmore, 33. It is understood detectives are investigating whether Ms Passmore was the woman in a wheelchair who allegedly impersonated Ms Pearce-Stevenson at an Adelaide bank after her death. Murder victims Karlie Pearce-Stevenson and daughter Khandalyce.Source:Supplied Ms Passmore lost a leg and two of her children died when a car driven by Holdom crashed in northern SA in 2008. She went to Wakefield St police station, in the city, on Friday, with her lawyer, current partner and a child but left without being charged. A day after Holdom fronted Maitland Court charged with Karlie's murder, it emerged police questioned him while on patrol in Narara, on the NSW Central Coast, on January 31, 2013, and allegedly found the dead mother's bank card in his wallet. Court documents claim police came across Holdom, 41, stopped on the side of Mangrove Rd with property piled "head high" in the vehicle. Holdom told police he was "just broken down" but according to the documents, they questioned him further when he became "very nervous and his hands were shaky." Hazel Passmore outside Wakefield St Police Station on Friday. Picture: STEPHEN LAFFERSource:News Corp Australia When they opened his wallet, they found the bank card belonging to Ms Pearce-Stevenson, who had been reported missing with her daughter several years earlier. Her remains were found by motorcycle riders in the Belanglo State Forest in 2010. ID THEFT: How Centrelink was fooled by Karlie's impersonator The remains of her daughter Khandalyce were found in a suitcase by the side of a South Australian highway outside Wynarka earlier this year. The report was withdrawn by her family after someone posing as Karlie contacted them to say she was alive. He advised police that she was an ex-girlfriend. Police allege that the accused is using this keycard as another form of identification. The keycard is expired and the bank has since changed names," court documents read. The owner resides in another state, and so police destroyed the card. Holdom was unemployed at the time and told police he had moved to the Central Coast a few days earlier, spending a few nights at a motel to gain an address for Centrelink benefits. He was receiving $710 a fortnight in unemployment benefits and was paying $22 a fortnight in child support for his two daughters aged seven and 14.

Broncos trade Tim Tebow to Jets March 21, 2012 -- Updated 1931 GMT (0331 HKT) Quarterback Tim Tebow was briefly a hero in Denver last season, but he's been traded to New York. NEW: Evangelicals say Tebow will be missed in Denver Jets agree in principle to the Tim Tebow trade (CNN) -- The New York Jets announced Wednesday that they have agreed on a trade with the Denver Broncos for high-profile quarterback Tim Tebow, who was displaced in Denver by superstar Peyton Manning. Much of the hype about Tebow, 24, surrounds the demonstrations of his faith. He wore Bible verses on his eye black when he quarterbacked for the Florida Gators. Throughout last season in Denver, Tebow's jersey was flying off the racks and "Tebowing" -- the act of getting down on one knee and praying while everyone around you does something else -- became an Internet meme and widely recognized symbol. Tebow quickly became the public face of FRS Company and Jockey; for months, it was hard to click on ESPN without hearing his name. Jim Daly, president of the Colorado Springs-based evangelical group Focus on the Family, teamed up with Tebow for an anti-abortion Super Bowl ad last year. The spot illustrated how comfortable Tebow is trumpeting his Christian beliefs, even on a polarizing issue. "I think there is going to be this period of mourning for Tim Tebow's departure," Daly said. I think that that affection that people have for Tebow goes well beyond Denver and his ability to play football. CNN's Dan Merica contributed to this report.

Jessie Wallace sheds two stone A "life-changing" diet and exercise regime helped ex-EastEnders star Jessie Wallace lose two stone in six weeks, the actress has said. From looking like a "butch Barbara Cartland" on last year's Strictly Come Dancing, this summer sees her brave enough to pose in a swimming costume and figure-hugging dresses for a magazine photoshoot. Inspired to slim down after watching herself on the BBC celebrity dance show, personal trainers Paul Ellis and Tom Stockwell promised improvements if she took their advice. The 5ft 2ins actress, 37, rose to the challenge and went from 10 stone to 8 stone, dropping from a size 16 to size 10. She said she noticed results after a fortnight of following the plan, which involved cutting out wheat, dairy and alcohol, eating more fruit, vegetables, fish, nuts and seeds as well as going to the gym and running. Jessie, who played Kat Slater in the BBC soap, told Reveal magazine that when she watched Strictly Come Dancing she looked like a "big bear," wearing dresses that accentuated her "big back."

train-023855	Today is Saturday, September 16, 2017. Who did Helen Skelton welcome her second child, son Louis, with in April this year?	Monday, September 4, 2017. Helen Skelton showcases post-baby frame in France She had welcomed her second child, son Louis, with rugby player husband Richie Myler, 27, in April earlier this year. And just four months later, Helen Skelton, 34, has proven she has snapped right back into shape after giving birth as she proudly paraded her post-baby frame while soaking up the sun in Cassis, France. The TV presenter looked sensational as she treated her 65.4k followers to a bikini-clad photo of herself taking a dip in the sea on Sunday. Sporting a plunging bikini, that paired together a longline bandeau top and matching briefs, Helen dazzled in the snap as she perched on the back of a boat while propping one leg up against the other. Her plunging swimwear made for a very revealing display, as Helen - who has become known for her risque sartorial choices - gave fans a good look at her more than ample assets in the scanty design that boasted a pretty red trim round its neckline. She appeared in high spirits in the snap, sporting dampened tresses from her swim in the ocean, and joked alongside her post that she had been 'hiding cellulite' by purposely bending her leg. Unfazed, Helen added the hashtag: '#hidingcellulitewiththeotherleg,' and found herself inundated with compliments from her followers, with many complimenting the 'beautiful' starlet. She is currently living overseas with her beau Richie and their two children; sons Ernie, two, and Louis, four months. In another sweet image she had uploaded to the photo-sharing site, Helen is seen cradling her youngest son while in the pool. Sporting the same stylish two-piece in the water, Helen flashed a huge smile for the camera as she donned shades and swept her tresses back into a tousled up-do, while holding onto Louis. Louis, meanwhile, looked cute as a button in his all-in-one swimsuit and matching hat and appeared to be having a ball with his mother. Helen gushed alongside her post: 'Bye bye August. You spoiled us. First summer as a family of four. France had been where Helen had delivered son Louis back in April. Following his birth, she had spoken out about his dramatic arrival and revealed the moment firefighters had rescued her after she had given birth on the kitchen floor overseas. After feeling the first signs of labour a panicked Helen called Richie, who was stuck in the UK, telling him he should get to the airport quickly as the baby was on the way It was all a bit frantic. We are just so relieved he is safely here,' Helen told Hello magazine. 'I'm still not really sure why the fire brigade arrived but it seems they were the closest emergency service at the time.' Back in the UK Richie had rung a friend who was their neighbour who called emergency services and rushed over to help. 'The firefighters were lovely and beside themselves with excitement as they said they hadn't been at a birth before, but bless them they weren't up to speed with what you do so they were all flapping,' she added. Although Richie didn't arrive in time for the birth he later admitted how proud of Helen he was for going through it alone. He first began dating Helen in 2011, with the couple tying the knot two years later. The family subsequently moved to France, after Richie transferred from the Warrington Wolves to the Catalan Dragons, based in Perpignan in the Pyrénées.

Caroline Kennedy 'ended US senate bid for children' Last Updated: 12:52AM BST 06 May 2009 An excerpt from "Ted Kennedy: The Dream That Never Dies," said Caroline Kennedy, the daughter of slain President John F. Kennedy and niece of Sen. Edward Kennedy, told New York Gov. David Paterson she was withdrawing from consideration for the seat because her children and husband felt she was becoming a different person. The book was written by Edward Klein, a best-selling author who has been accused of using hearsay in other biographies. The book shows jockeying inside the family to carry on the tradition of public service through politics after Sen. Kennedy was diagnosed with brain cancer. Ms Kennedy stepped up with the strongly implied backing of New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and President-elect Barack Obama. She felt the appointment "would automatically be hers," the book states, citing an unidentified family adviser. In pursuing the appointment, she became "loud, harsh and grating," the book said, quoting a veteran lawyer who spoke with her. The book also says she was angry when ov Paterson didn't immediately name her to succeed Hillary Rodham Clinton in the senate. It was her children who "jerked Caroline back to reality," the book said. What would her mother (Jackie) think of all this tabloid attention she was getting? ... That's when Caroline called Paterson and told him she was withdrawing her name. The book also says, "Caroline's decision came as a crushing blow to Ted." A Kennedy spokesmen declined to comment on the claims.

train-043372	Today is Friday, April 13, 2012. When was Billions in cash smuggled out of Afghanistan every year first published?	Monday, March 26, 2012. Billions in cash smuggled out of Afghanistan every year By Sara Sidner and Mitra Mobasherat, CNN March 26, 2012 -- Updated 2108 GMT (0508 HKT) It is estimated $8 billion in cash was lugged out of Afghanistan last year The country limits cash leaving the country at once to $20,000 Those with money are worried what will happen when foreign troops leave Kabul, Afghanistan (CNN) -- In the busy street markets of Kabul, stacks of cash sit in piles as moneychangers shout the day's exchange rate to shoppers bustling by. Currency is bought and sold in the open air. But all the money changing hands on the streets is barely a drop in the bucket compared to all the cash being siphoned out of the country in suitcases, and that is not a metaphor. It's hard to estimate exactly how much is going out of Afghanistan, but I can tell you in 2011 4.5 billion was out of Afghanistan, said Khan Afzal Hadawal, deputy governor of the bank of Afghanistan. That is just what is moving out of the Kabul airport. It is estimated $8 billion in cash was lugged out of the country last year by car, private jets and border crossings. That is almost double the entire country's budget for 2011. The government is trying to stop the outflow of money to other countries and encourage investment in Afghanistan. It has capped the amount of cash that can be taken out of the country at $20,000. We are very serious on this. It is not an easy job. Definitely there are challenges. People will try to use other channels but we will not let anybody take the physical cash out of Afghanistan," Hadawal said. At a dusty construction site on the outskirts of Kabul, workers use everything from a hand-powered rebar cutter to a huge tractor and loader. They are building a multimillion-dollar community. It is the dream of Afghan developer Haji Hafizullah Caravan, who hopes the government's plan works. He and his family have made a huge investment in the capital, Kabul, constructing large self-contained communities complete with mosques, schools and hospitals. The idea is to make people feel safer by creating a tiny city within a city. The price per apartment starts at $70,000. Kabul was mostly destroyed in wars. There is need for construction in Afghanistan and the amount of housing that is needed is not being fulfilled," Caravan said. The projects have created dozens of jobs for people like Abdul Wahab, who has 13 family members to provide for. "It's hard to find work and to find good work," Wahab said after using all his body weight and strength to lean on a lever linked to a device that cuts rebar. If it wasn't for this job, he said, his family would suffer greatly. Caravan said he wants others to help rebuild instead of storing their cash in already posh Dubai. We are Afghans and should build up our own country by any means. We should be proud of our country," he said. But he said he understands why people have moved out large sums of cash. There is a looming fear that when NATO forces leave, so will any semblance of security, both physical and economic. We are worried about security, that it doesn't get worst. We want a stable system here in Afghanistan after foreign troops' withdrawal. We worry about this and nothing else," Caravan said. The 10-year war has brought heartache, but also more stability. Foreign aid is propping up Afghanistan's economy. The question on every potential investor's mind is will Afghanistan be able to sustain itself when the war is finally over.

JJB to raise £100m share release Retail chain JJB Sports is finalising plans to raise £100 million from investors. The proposed rights issue will net more than the current stock market value of the firm, which narrowly avoided administration earlier this year. Analysts had expected JJB to raise around £50 million, but reports said the initial response from investors meant a larger amount will be raised. The struggling 246-store company avoided collapse this year after striking a deal with landlords and disposing of stores and businesses, including its gyms chain to founder Dave Whelan, in a bid to secure new financing arrangements. The company ran up losses of £42.9 million in the first half of the year, but with recent sales showing signs of improvement it said last month that it believed it was "out of intensive care."

train-003744	Today is Saturday, April 10, 2010. Who did Kris Boyd talk to about his future?	Thursday, March 25, 2010. McLeish convinced Boyd would shine down south Alex McLeish is confident Rangers striker Kris Boyd will be a success in the Premier League if he decides to move south of the border in the summer. McLeish has confirmed Birmingham's interest in signing Boyd whose current contract at Ibrox runs out at the end of the season. The former Scotland manager has spoken with representatives of the 26-year-old since the transfer window closed in January and McLeish is backing the man he brought to Rangers four years ago to find the net in England should the striker decide he wants to test himself outside of the Clydesdale Bank Premier League. McLeish said: "If you make the chances, Kris Boyd will score. You won't turn him into a bad finisher overnight if he comes to the Premier League. But it is a different league to the SPL and, the thing about Kris is that you have to make sure the supply is right. Can he make the step to the Premier League in England? He can score goals. If you can give him the service he will score. McLeish was strongly linked with a move for Boyd in January, a year after the player rejected a move to the midlands club after failing to agree personal terms. The Blues manager is keen to bolster his firepower despite the current fine form being shown by Cameron Jerome who has scored four goals in the last three games. He said: "We are looking at a number of names. I really can't talk about players that are under contract because it looks tantamount to tapping up. But we have got a number of players we will try and pursue. I can talk about Boyd because he's out of contract and we have made contact with Rangers also, in terms of courtesy. It is ongoing. He's a free agent, he has got that luxury. We have spoken to his people since January. McLeish wants to bring in six or seven players this summer but admits a big-money signing like Tottenham's Roman Pavlyuchenko may be beyond him this summer. Blues met Tottenham's initial asking price of £12m in January but the price was then increased and since then Pavlyuchenko has hit a rich vein of form. McLeish said: "We'd struggle at that level because it would kill most of my budget - especially when we need to sign another five or six players. That will be debatable because, like I say, we may need to sign a few players. Boyd has been offered a new deal to stay with Rangers, but he has delayed making a decision over his future due to the continuing uncertainty at Ibrox. The Scotland international, who has also been linked with Blackburn, Wigan and Hull, insists he would be a success in the English Premier League if he decides to quit Scotland. I genuinely don't know if I'll stay or go, but I'd be happy to sign on again here and if I'm still banging in goals for Rangers five or six years from now, I'll be very happy. I've spoken to Walter Smith [Rangers' manager] about my situation and he respects my decision to take my time about it and not to rush into anything. On the outside, it's easy for people to say, 'Come on, just sign again for Rangers', but it's not as easy as that. At this moment in time, the club is not stable and that is on my mind.

Designed by British architects Hugh Broughton, Aecom, an engineering practice, and Galliford Try, a construction group, the £25.8m Halley VI Antarctic research station had to be built over four successive summers because the time window where construction is possible lasts only about nine weeks. One intriguing aspect of the units that make up the station is that they are mobile. Standing on hydraulic legs that allow them to adapt and adjust to changing surface conditions and snow, the buildings look like a sci-fi centipede walking in the wintry wastes. The British Antarctic Survey has had a presence in the south polar region since the 1950s and its work has led to scientific breakthroughs including the confirmation of the existence of the hole in the ozone layer in 1985. They have also studied the earth's magnetic field and its "near-space" atmosphere. The structure, the sixth to be built on the Brunt Ice Shelf since 1957, is able to respond to cracking in the ice by moving, in a manner reminiscent of the visionary drawings of 1960s architectural radicals Archigram who proposed the idea of a "Walking City." At an official launch at London's Royal Society on Tuesday [this evening], David Willetts, the universities and science minister, said: "The legacy of Captain Scott, together with our strong track record of scientific discovery in Antarctica, is set to continue in this excellent new facility." Professor Alan Rodger, interim director of British Antarctic Survey, said: "The long-term research investigations carried out at Halley since the 1950s have led to deeper understanding of our world . . .

train-061030	Today is Monday, April 21, 2014. When was the pilot arrested at Heathrow airport?	Wednesday, November 11, 2009. Drunk United Airlines pilot arrested at Heathrow airport Published: 11:41PM GMT 10 Nov 2009 The 51-year-old man, who has not been identified, was due to take charge of the flight to Chicago. He was arrested at around noon on Monday and released on bail, according to a spokesman for the Metropolitan Police. A source said the pilot aroused suspicion when he arrived at Terminal 1 several hours before the flight. A member of the airline's staff reported him to the authorities and the man was subjected to a breath test and failed it. He was later charged with being over the alcohol limit to fly a plane. The plane was a Boeing 767 named as United Airlines Flight 949, which was scheduled to take off at 12.05pm for Chicago's O'Hare airport. The flight was cancelled and the 124 passengers and 11 crew members moved to other aircraft. A spokeswoman for the airline said: "Safety is our highest priority and the pilot has been removed from service while we are cooperating with authorities and conducting a full investigation." A Metropolitan Police spokesman said: "At 12.30pm on November 9 we attended a flight at Heathrow Airport and arrested a 51-year-old man. He was arrested on suspicion of being aviation staff while exceeding the proscribed alcohol limit and about to take the plane. Airline pilots face fare stricter standards than drivers, with an alcohol limit of nine micrograms of alcohol in 100 millilitres of breath, compared to 35 for motorists in England. The tight limits mean that pilots should abstain from alcohol the night before a flight. One pilot said last night: "You are talking about a limit which is barely above the natural level of alcohol in the body. We normally don't touch a drop for at least 16 hours before a flight. Research has shown that somebody eating fruit or on the Atkins diet could also be above the limit. This is the second time in the past six months that a pilot set to fly from London to Chicago has been arrested for being drunk.

train-008201	Today is Wednesday, November 28, 2007. When did French President Nicolas Sarkozy have a telephone conversation with Deby?	Friday, November 2, 2007. Chad chief: Free some in orphan case Journalists, air crew detained without being charged in France charity case updated 9:28 p.m. N'DJAMENA, Chad - Chad's president said Thursday he hopes his country's judicial system will quickly free journalists and an air crew detained in connection with a French charity that was trying to fly children it claimed were orphans from Darfur to Europe. Seventeen Europeans have been detained by Chadian authorities over the past week, including six French citizens who were charged with kidnapping. Three of the detained are French journalists. Seven Spaniards, including two pilots, are part of the air crew as well as a Belgian pilot. The journalists and crew are being held without charge. "I hope that Chadian justice can very quickly shed light on this affair and that the journalists and the air hostesses and those not involved can be freed without delay," President Idriss Deby said on state television. French President Nicolas Sarkozy called Deby on Thursday and had an "extremely positive" conversation, France's presidential spokesman David Martinon. In a telephone conversation on Wednesday, Sarkozy had urged Deby to free the French journalists. "We welcome this statement as an encouraging sign," Martinon said in reaction to Deby's remarks. Some doubt kids are orphans Earlier on Thursday, humanitarian workers cast new doubt on claims by the charity Zoe's Ark that it was helping Darfur orphans by trying to fly them to Europe, saying most of the children appear to have at least one living parent. Fallout from the scandal reached across Africa to the Republic of Congo, where officials suspended international adoptions. Zoe's Ark was stopped last week from flying the children from Chad to Europe, where the group said it intended to place them with host families in foster care. The group says its intentions were purely humanitarian and that it had conducted investigations over several weeks to determine that the children had no parents. But the French Foreign Ministry and others have cast doubt on the claims that the children were orphans from Darfur, where more than 200,000 people have been killed since fighting erupted in early 2003. Adding to the questions, the International Committee of the Red Cross and two U.N. aid agencies said they conducted several days of talks with 21 girls and 81 boys aged between 1 and 10 at an orphanage in eastern Chad. "Ninety-one of the children referred to a family environment made up of at least one adult person whom they consider as a parent," the U.N."s Children Fund, the U.N. refugee agency and the Red Cross said in a joint statement. UNICEF insists that the child's best interest should always be paramount in an international adoption. The process of moving a child has to be transparent; other options such as the child's remaining with family or appropriate caregivers should be explored; and if adoption is deemed in the child's best interest, it has to comply with immigration laws and international norms. Nationality of kids unclear The aid groups said their interviews with the children "suggest that 85 of them come from villages in the border region between Chad and Sudan, in the area of Adre and Tine," which are both in Chad. Thousands from Darfur have sought refuge in camps and villages in eastern Chad, so the nationalities of the children were still in question. The children interviewed said "that they were living in Chadian villages for years, so they may turn out to be Chadian citizens. But until we go to their villages, we can't be sure," said Annette Rehrl, of the U.N. refugee agency. Christophe Letien, a spokesman for Zoe's Ark in France, maintained that the children were orphans. The U.N. agencies "questioned the children in 24 hours," he said. Our teams have been there for eight weeks and took the time to do the necessary investigations with local authorities. According to its Web site, Zoe's Ark, founded in 2005 by volunteer firefighter Eric Breteau, announced in April it planned on "evacuating orphans from Darfur." The group launched an appeal for host families and funding. The French Foreign Ministry in August warned families to be careful. Still, some 300 families reportedly signed up to adopt or foster children, and many were waiting at a French airport last week for the children when they heard members of the group had been arrested. Congo suspends all international adoptions The Republic of Congo suspended all international adoptions following the events in Chad as "a preventive measure," said Justice Minister Emmanuel Aime Yoka. Yoka said the Chad incident occurred only a few days after 17 children from the Republic of Congo were adopted by Spanish families. He said the two events were not connected, but said the coincidence of timing led the government to re-examine its policies. Republic of Congo is checking the situation of the children in Spain, he said. In Paris, Marie-Claude Arnauld, vice president of the French association Childhood and Adoptive Families, said Republic of Congo's decision could lead to restrictions on international adoptions from other countries.

train-096487	Today is Sunday, December 24, 2017. When was the protest at which the defendant Joshua Wong was present?	Saturday, July 18, 2015. Two of the student leaders of last fall's pro-democracy demonstrations appeared in court Friday on charges stemming from a protest in June 2014, with the defendants decrying the prosecution as a heavy-handed political move orchestrated by authorities in Beijing. Joshua Wong, leader of the high school activist group Scholarism; Nathan Law, head of the Hong Kong Federation of Students; and two others face charges of obstructing police officers. Last June, they and about 20 other demonstrators torched an outsized replica of a controversial document issued by Chinese Communist authorities. The document asserted that mainland China has "complete jurisdiction" over Hong Kong, a former British colony that returned to Chinese rule in 1997 as a semiautonomous territory. The demonstration was staged at the Chinese Liaison Office of the Central People's Government, which houses officials handling defense and foreign affairs, two key areas in which Hong Kong is subject to Beijing's authority. No one was injured. All four were freed Friday on $65 bail, with a pretrial hearing scheduled for late August. If convicted, they face terms of up to two years behind bars and fines of up to $645. Presiding over the hearing, principal magistrate Bina Chainrai questioned the prosecution on the lapse of time between the incident - 13 months - and the formal arrests, which were made this week. The prosecution maintained that the police took the time "to gather evidence in order to make the arrests." After the hearing, Law said: "The government wants to send a clear signal to deter any future protest that despoils the dignity of the Chinese Communist Party." Added lawyer Michael Vidler, who represents Wong: "It has all the hallmark of a persecution." The Hong Kong government is under pressure from Beijing and loyalists here. ... The high-profile prosecution also serves to undercut the morale of the protest movement. - Ching Cheong, political commentator and journalist Hong Kong returned to Chinese rule under an arrangement known as "one country, two systems." The semiautonomous territory of 7.3 million has been allowed to keep a wide range of civil liberties and its British common law system, and it was granted "a high degree of autonomy" for 50 years under a mini-constitution known as the Basic Law. But in recent years, many Hong Kongers have come to regard the Liaison Office as a command center of what they see as Beijing's meddling in Hong Kong affairs. The office has been the site of numerous protests, but the demonstrations rarely have resulted in prosecutions - until now. Ching Cheong, longtime local political commentator and journalist on China's politics, called the prosecutions "a retaliatory move in the wake of the Umbrella Movement," last fall's pro-democracy street protests. "The Hong Kong government is under pressure from Beijing and loyalists here to take tough measures against those involved," he said. The high-profile prosecution also serves to undercut the morale of the protest movement. The tens of thousands of demonstrators who took to the streets last fall called on Beijing to allow free and fair elections for the city's highest office, with a genuine choice of candidates. After 10 weeks of sit-ins, clashes with police and a brief round of dialogue between Hong Kong leaders and protest organizers, no agreement was reached. However, the election rules proposed by Beijing were rejected by Hong Kong lawmakers last month. Despite the return of Chinese sovereignty, Hong Kong has maintained its lively, freewheeling protest culture. Charges stemming from such gatherings are rare, unless physical harm is caused. For example, in April, a leader from one political party was sentenced to three weeks in jail for pelting the territory's finance secretary with an egg. To date, no charges have been filed against any of the leaders of the Umbrella Movement, although some may face contempt charges for failing to disperse after a court ordered the demonstrators" encampments to be cleared from public roadways. A score of participants were hauled into court in March for preliminary hearings, but most have had their charges vacated. Ching said he didn't expect the current prosecutions of the two student leaders - as well as the other two defendants, legislator Albert Chan and Raphael Wong, leader of the League of Social Democrats party - would serve as much of a deterrent. "Those who want to protest will still carry on," Ching said. And the young protesters in Hong Kong especially don't give in to this kind of intimidation.

train-023417	Today is Tuesday, December 28, 2010. Why was Damien Delaney sent off?	Monday, November 29, 2010. Norwich City 4 - 1 Ipswich Town: Norwich into play-off spots as Holt hat-trick sinks Ipswich - Scotsman.com Grant Holt's hat-trick turned up the heat on Roy Keane as 10-man Ipswich were thumped in yesterday's East Anglian derby. The Norwich skipper struck twice in the first half to cancel out an equaliser from Damien Delaney, who was then sent off in the 37th minute for a professional foul on Holt. Keane's men rarely threatened an equaliser in the second half and, after H olt completed his treble in the 76th minute, substitute Wes Hoolahan added a fourth two minutes later. The result marked a fourth successive npower Championship defeat for Ipswich but Norwich were more vibrant throughout as they moved back into the play-off zone. The home side's manager Paul Lambert watched from the stands after being hit with a two-match touchline ban following last week's 3-3 draw with Reading, but his men did his talking for him with the football they produced. They took the lead in the 13th minute when Ipswich defender Darren O'Dea dithered on the ball, allowing Holt to rob him of possession and fire a superb right-foot shot high past Marton Fulop. Both sides passed up chances shortly afterwards before Ipswich drew level in the 29th minute when Grant Leadbitter's deep free-kick was headed down by Priskin and pounced on by Delaney, who nodded in from point-blank range. Parity lasted for just six minutes as Lansbury's delightful slide-rule pass cut the Ipswich defence apart and found Holt in space. The powerful frontman controlled the ball and drilled a low right-foot shot into the net from 14 yards. In the 37th minute Delaney hauled down Holt as he threatened to race clear on goal and referee Keith Hill was left with no other option but to show Delaney a straight red card and leave Keane's men facing an uphill battle.. There were precious few second-half chances for either side until Holt grabbed his hat-trick goal in the 76th minute. Martin did superbly well to find him inside the penalty area and he drilled home a low right-foot shot. Two minutes later, Hoolahan collected another fine pass from Martin and coolly chipped the ball over Fulop with his left foot. Norwich: Ruddy, Russell Martin, Barnett, Ward, Lappin, Crofts, Surman (Hoolahan 64), Lansbury (Korey Smith 80), Fox, Holt (Jackson 85), Chris Martin. Subs Not Used: Rudd, Nelson, Johnson, McNamee.

train-013756	Today is Sunday, September 3, 2017. Where did Tepesch make his first start for the Blue Jays?	Thursday, August 10, 2017. Makeshift Blue Jays lineup falls to Yankees As he took the mound to begin his warmup tosses in advance of his first start for the Toronto Blue Jays, you got the sense that Nick Tepesch was just a tad uncomfortable in his new surroundings. The first pitch he threw was adrift and eluded Raffy Lopez, the Blue Jays" starting catcher on Wednesday night at Rogers Centre, and the ball sailed to the backstop. It begged the question: How is Tepesch going to handle the pressure when an actual New York Yankees player is standing in the batter's box? "I don't know, to be honest with you," Blue Jays manager John Gibbons admitted before the game, when that question was asked. Gibbons, after all, had never seen Tepesch start before. The 28-year-old came to the organization from the Minnesota Twins last month in exchange for cash considerations and was then sent to Triple-A Buffalo. The Yankees were able to provide a more informed response, with Gary Sanchez and Todd Frazier clouting back-to-back solo home runs off Tepesch in the second inning. Didi Gregorius followed suit in the third inning and the Yankees (60-52) were able to ride the power play to an often jittery 11-5 victory over Toronto (53-60) to knot the three-game series at 1-1. The starting-pitching cupboard is bare these days for the Blue Jays. Tepesch was called up from Triple-A and thrown right into the fray, the Blue Jays being thin on starters with injuries to Cesar Valdez and Aaron Sanchez. And with former reliever/starter/reliever Joe Biagini in the process of stretching himself out again in the minors, the Blue Jays are not even certain who will take the mound on Saturday against the Pittsburgh Pirates. These are strange optics for a team that still considers itself armed and ready to mount a challenge for a wildcard playoff berth in the American League. Tepesch was the 11th starting pitcher to take the mound for the Blue Jays this season. The team only used seven starters over the entire 2016 season. Tepesch was not totally out of his element against the Yankees. Over 4.1 innings of work, he was charged with five of the Yankees runs off eight hits - five that went for extra bases. Afterward, Gibbons was charitable in his comments on Tepesch, saying what he saw warranted another start. "I don't see why not," he said. I thought he did a solid job. He gave up a few solo home runs. But I though he was aggressive, he attacked. And as he settled in and as his game worn on he stared getting his breaking ball over a little bit better. Masahiro Tanaka was not stellar himself on the mound for New York, lasting just four-plus innings, allowing three Toronto runs off three hits. Tanaka would walk five, a career high. New York would surge ahead 6-2 with a three-run top of the fifth before Toronto responded in the bottom half with a solo home run by Jose Bautista, his 18th of the season. Toronto would tag on two more runs in the sixth to cut the Yankees" lead to 6-5. But a single by Ronald Torreyes off Toronto reliever Taylor Cole, who was making his MLB debut, brought in two more New York runs in the top of the eighth to ice the victory. Over all, it was a rather makeshift lineup that Gibbons presented Wednesday night. Lopez was making his first start behind the plate for Toronto after getting called up from Buffalo on Friday to fill in for the injured Miguel Montero. And Nori Aoki got his second start since joining Toronto at the trade deadline in left field, with Steve Pearce handling the designated hitter duties. Before the game, the Blue Jays announced they were shifting oft-injured shortstop Troy Tulowitzki to the 60-day disabled list, essentially signalling they don't expect the 32-year-old to return to the lineup this season. That is good news for Ryan Goins, who should get the majority of starts at shortstop from here on in - and he turned in a couple of defensive gems in the losing cause against New York. Still, given the turmoil the Blue Jays have endured this season, the team was only four games off the pace for the second A.L. wildcard playoff berth at the game's first pitch - albeit with six other teams above them. Gibbons said it was surprising to him that his team remains within sniffing distance of the wildcard despite starting the day six games under .500. Still, if Toronto has any magic up its sleeve, August would be the month to use it. The Blue Jays went 17-11 last year in August to snag a wildcard berth, and 21-6 in 2015 when they won the A.L. East outright. "You don't give up," Gibbons said. Stranger things have happened in this game.

Streeter Lecka/Getty Images The Billion Dollar Dream has been over for a while. Most bracket sheets are loaded with red X's. Still, there is plenty of March Madness ahead of us in the NCAA tournament's round of 16. You want favorites? Three No. 1s -- Florida, Arizona, Virginia -- are alive and well after two rounds. You want underdogs? How about three with double-digit seedings -- Stanford, a 10, with 11s Dayton and Tennessee. You want a rivalry? It's tough to beat Kentucky-Louisville. You want rematches? Besides Kentucky-Louisville there is Arizona-San Diego State. You get the point. Four days, 12 games. It's regional weekend when the Sweet 16 is cut to the Final Four. Enjoy. SOUTH REGIONAL, Memphis, Tenn., Thursday-Saturday. The game that guarantees a winner with a double-digit seeding, Stanford vs. Dayton, will be followed by the overall top seed, Florida, facing a familiar tournament opponent in UCLA. Stanford gets to wear home whites after beating New Mexico and Kansas. The Cardinal are in the round of 16 for the first time since 2008, the last time they were in the tournament. They haven't given up more than 57 points and they have been great at the free throw line. Dorian Finney-Smith of the Florida Gators attacks the basket against the Pittsburgh Panthers during the third round of the 2014 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament, at Amway Center on March 22, 2014 in Orlando, Fla. Mike Ehrmann/Getty Images Dayton followed the win over Ohio State with a squeaker over Syracuse and the Flyers are in the round of 16 for the first time since 1984. They got here with two wins by a total of three points and they have yet to break 60, but they have done just enough. Coach Archie Miller couldn't meet his brother Sean and Arizona until the national semifinals. Florida has lived up to its billing as the overall No. The Gators have increased their winning streak to 28 games with a couple of double-figure victories. This is their fourth straight year in the round of 16, the longest current streak. UCLA won both its games by 17 points and the Bruins have won five straight and seven of eight, including an upset of Arizona. This is their first Sweet 16 appearance since 2008. Florida beat UCLA in the national championship game in 2006 and in the national semifinals the following season. The Gators also eliminated the Bruins in the second round in 2011. WEST REGIONAL, Anaheim, Calif., Thursday-Saturday. This is the closest any of the regions came to having seeds 1-4 advance. Top-seeded Arizona, No. 2 Wisconsin and No. 4 San Diego State are still playing along with seventh-seeded Baylor. Nick Johnson of the Arizona Wildcats goes up against Przemek Karnowski of the Gonzaga Bulldogs, at Viejas Arena on March 23, 2014 in San Diego, Calif. Jeff Gross/Getty Images Arizona was impressive on defense in dispatching Gonzaga in the third round and the Wildcats are in the round of 16 for the third time in four years. San Diego State finally showed its defensive prowess in a third-round win over North Dakota State, which had a season-low 44 points. These teams met in San Diego on Nov. 14 and Arizona won 69-60 behind the 23 points of Nick Johnson. The Wildcats were ranked No. 6 at the time and four weeks later were No. 1, a spot they held for eight weeks. Wisconsin is going from facing one set of highlighter yellow uniforms to another. The Badgers beat Oregon to get to the Sweet 16 after missing to get there last season. Frank Kaminsky, who had 19 points against Oregon, will be in for quite a test against Baylor's tall, athletic front line. The Bears come in off a 30-point demolition of Creighton in which they held Doug McDermott, the nation's leading scorer, to 15 points. They won't be able to concentrate on one of the Badgers, who have six players averaging from 13.4 points to 7.9 points. The NCAA tournament hasn't been in Madison Square Garden since 1961. One of the teams headed there this week has some great memories already of the building known as "the world's most famous arena." Travis Trice of the Michigan State Spartans drives against Siyani Chambers of the Harvard Crimson during the Third Round of the 2014 NCAA Basketball Tournament, at Spokane Veterans Memorial Arena on March 22, 2014 in Spokane, Wash. Stephen Dunn/Getty Images Virginia, the quietest of the four No. 1s, played its kind of game -- good defense and patient offense -- in beating Memphis by 18 points. That got the Cavaliers to the round of 16 for the first time since 1995. They are the sole team remaining from the Atlantic Coast Conference. Michigan State was the nation's pick for the national championship even if it was a No. The injuries are a thing of the past and the Spartans look like the team that held the No. 1 ranking this season. They had their hands full with Harvard in the third round, but pulled away in the final minutes. Third-seeded Iowa State was able to overcome the loss of third-leading scorer Georges Niang to a broken foot by beating North Carolina in a game that came down to DeAndre Kane's driving basket with 1.6 seconds to play. The Cyclones, in the regional semifinals for the first time since 2000, are still a team with plenty of scorers. Connecticut won a record seven Big East tournament titles at Madison Square Garden, the last in 2011 when Kemba Walker led them to the national championship. Shabazz Napier was a freshman on that team and he's doing a solid imitation of Walker as he averaged 24.5 points in the two wins that has the Huskies in the Sweet 16 a year after they weren't eligible for the tournament over academic sanctions. MIDWEST REGIONAL, Indianapolis, Friday-Saturday. Indianapolis is about to be invaded by people from the commonwealth of Kentucky. Those wearing red are for Louisville, those wearing blue are for the University of Kentucky. There will be fans of Tennessee and Michigan in town, but they will be hard to notice with all those Kentuckians in for a visit. Luke Hancock of the Louisville Cardinals makes a layup against the Manhattan Jaspers at Amway Center on March 20, 2014 in Orlando, Fla. Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images Tennessee, a No. 11 seed, is the third team that played in the First Four to reach the regional semifinals. The Volunteers have won eight of nine with the only loss to Florida in the SEC tournament. They reached the Sweet 16 with a frontcourt dismantling of Mercer, outrebounding the team that beat Duke 41-19. Second-seeded Michigan is in the round of 16 for the second straight year and the Wolverines are trying to get back to the national championship game where they lost to Louisville. Nik Stauskas led an outside attack that saw Michigan make 14 3-pointers in a third-round win over Texas. Kentucky beat Louisville 73-66 just days after Christmas in the schools' annual meeting. This one is going to be on a higher level as Kentucky's roster of high school stars meets a Louisville squad that features key players who were on last season's national championship team. Kentucky, the preseason No. 1, did what no other team could do this season - beat Wichita State. In what has to be the best game of the tournament so far, the Wildcats played above their years in handing the Shockers their first loss of the season. Louisville is in the round of 16 for the third straight year and the great news for the Cardinals is that Naismith Hall of Fame coach Rick Pitino is 16-0 in the regional semifinals. His team has won 14 of its last 15 games overall and eight straight in the NCAA tournament.

Supermarkets could start to close, warns Waitrose boss Mr Price said: "This is as fundamental as supermarkets coming into the UK in the 1950s and reinventing what food shopping was all about. I think we are at one of those inflection points where customers are acting differently and retailers are going to have to respond to it. In an interview with The Telegraph at a Waitrose in Salisbury, which has been revamped to respond to the shift in shopping habits, Mr Price compared the plight of supermarkets to the DIY retailers B&Q and Homebase, which recently announced it will close one in four stores. Mr Price said: "Look at B&Q. Look at Homebase. I think that food is probably four or five years behind non-food. What you have seen over the last five years is 12pc of non-food space taken out of the market. You have had no food space retired over that period. In fact what you have been seeing is food space growing by 3pc to 5pc. So, more and more space has been added at a time before you get the impact of internet, convenience shopping and all the other shifts that we talked about. The Waitrose boss said that British supermarkets would have to reinvent themselves in order to survive a shift in spending from out-of-town stores to convenience shops, online and the discounters Aldi and Lidl. Mr Price said: "It [survival] depends what they become. It depends on your powers of reinvention really, because the model has changed. So you could say 'I am going to reinvent my shops so it is half a fashion retailer. Through their various strategic reviews, they are going to have to decide what their space becomes. A strategic review of Sainsbury's by new chief executive Mike Coupe got a mixed review from the City last week.Mr Coupe said Sainsbury's will lower prices by £150m and improve the quality of 3,000 products. This will be funded by cutting capital expenditure to between £500m and £550m in each of the next three years, compared to just below £900m at present, as well as a cut to the dividend and Sainsbury's removing £500m of costs. Mr Coupe also warned that one in four of Sainsbury's supermarket will have "underutilised space" within the next five years. David McCarthy, retail analyst at HSBC, said: "Mismanagement of the industry by Sainsbury's - and others - for the last five years or more and an unwillingness to recognise the fundamental changes in retailing has resulted in Sainsbury's not being positioned well for the future, hence the decline in profit."

Turkey will also change regulations to make fuel with sulphur levels of 50 ppm standard diesel fuel, starting July 1, 2008, he said. Diesel containing 7,000 ppm sulphur will be taken off the market, the agency's web site said. Earlier this month, Turkish refiner Tupras said Turkey would switch to cleaner heating oil with just 0.1 percent sulphur from January 1, 2008.

train-011595	Today is Tuesday, November 8, 2016. Who said that he was a wonderful player but I think he's also quite a sensitive guy?	Tuesday, October 25, 2016. Manchester United news: Henrikh Mkhitaryan snub branded 'unbelievable' by Owen Hargreaves Henrikh Mkhitaryan should be a Manchester United starter, says former Red Devil Owen Hargreaves. The 27-year-old was one of Jose Mourinho's four summer signings, along with Eric Bailly, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Paul Pogba, but has hardly featured for United, whereas the others have started every game. Mkhitaryan has only started once since his £26m arrival from Borussia Dortmund - against Manchester City when he was substituted after 45 minutes - but came off the bench in each of the three games before that one. The Armenian picked up an injury on international duty in September but has yet to make an appearance since, with Mourinho claiming although he was no longer injured, he was not match fit. However, Hargreaves, who won the Premier League and Champions League with the club in the 2007/08 season, cannot believe the treatment of a player who named Bundesliga's Players" Player of the Year last season. He needs to play, I can't believe that he's not getting a look-in. He would be a banker in my starting XI," Hargreaves told Squawka. "He had a slow start at Dortmund too and he was the players" player of the year last season. He got 23 goals and 32 assists, which is staggering numbers. This wasn't in a terrible league against pub teams and I can't think of anybody who could put up those numbers besides Messi and Ronaldo. He's a top player and we haven't seen it yet at United. The thing is, he's such a wonderful player but I think he's also quite a sensitive guy. It would have been perfect if he started off flying with goals and assists, but the slow start has probably hit his confidence. For me, you have to play the players that can help you win the league. There is a way to get Mkhitaryan, [Paul] Pogba, [Zlatan] Ibrahimovic, [Anthony] Martial and [Marcus] Rashford in the same team and United could be frightening if these guys all clicked. Ultimately, Mourinho has to find a way to get them in the team because if they are playing, United could win the Premier League. Manchester United's best XI should be good enough to go toe-to-toe with anybody.

train-061339	Today is Sunday, July 13, 2008. Where will President Bush go to on Wednesday?	Wednesday, March 19, 2008. Commanders expected to recommend Iraq pullout pause WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Senior U.S. military officials are preparing to recommend to President Bush a four- to six-week pause in additional troop withdrawals from Iraq after the last of the "surge" brigades leaves in July, CNN has learned. Several U.S. military officials said this is the most likely recommendation that Gen. David Petraeus and Adm. William Fallon will make to Defense Secretary Robert Gates on Thursday morning -- and then make to Bush on Monday. The officials were familiar with the recommendations but not authorized to speak on the record. The key issue is how long Petraeus may feel he needs to evaluate the impact of the "surge" troops' withdrawal before he is ready to recommend more reductions. Military commanders would want to see at least six weeks of data on violence and attack trends after July to decide if more reductions could be made, two officials told CNN. Petraeus, the top U.S. commander in the war zone, heads the Multi-National Force - Iraq; Fallon is the outgoing head of U.S. Central Command. Officials confirmed there have been extensive internal discussions in the military about the pause option. The return of all five brigades added to the Iraq contingent last year could reduce troop levels by up to 30,000, but still leave approximately 130,000 or more troops in Iraq. Watch Petraeus talk about drawing down "surge" troops " Next Wednesday, Bush will go to the Pentagon to be briefed by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, chaired by Adm. Michael Mullen. All the officials CNN spoke with emphasized that it is still up to the president to make the final decision, which could be different. An official familiar with Petraeus' thinking warned that he will be reluctant to publicly put a timeline on the pause because of the president's emphasis that withdrawals not be tied to a deadline, but only to conditions in Iraq. The final recommendations are expected to be made public when Petraeus testifies before Congress on April 8 and 9. As part of the overall assessment, the Army is expected to recommend to the president that the current 15-month tour of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan be cut back to 12 months beginning this summer. The Army has determined it can carry out 12-month tours so long as no more than 15 brigades are deployed in Iraq and two in Afghanistan -- which is what would be in place after the surge ends in July.

train-081258	Today is Friday, June 21, 2019. When will Ezequiel Lavezzi leave PSG?	Thursday, December 31, 2015. Arsenal transfer news and rumours: Gunners suffer blow in bid to sign PSG's Ezequiel Lavezzi Arsenal, and Liverpool for that matter, are known to be long-term admirers and have been heavily linked with a January move for the Argentine. However, it now looks like the Premier League clubs will have to wait until the summer. Agent Alejandro Mazzoni told Italian radio station Radio CRC: "At the moment I see no real possibility, the player will not leave in January. PSG are doing very well in the Champions League and they want to go as far as possible, that could therefore hinder a Lavezzi departure in January. Next June, Lavezzi will quietly choose his team for next season. Even if he does leave PSG in the summer, Mazzoni admits Lavezzi would prefer a move back to Italy rather than a switch the Premier League. He added: "Lavezzi is out of contract and is nostalgic for Italy. His return to Serie A is a possibility. Mathieu Debuchy could leave Arsenal in January, reports The Daily Star. The France defender is out of favour at the Emirates after losing his starting spot to Hector Bellerin. "It's not impossible," said Arsene Wenger. I'm happy if he stays. We'll see. The Daily Mail suggests Roma and Lyon are interested. Wenger is ready to see off the challenges of Man Utd and Liverpool to sign Leicester left-back Ben Chilwell, reveals The Sun. The Gunners boss apparently wants the England U20 star as soon as possible and would have to lay out £2.5 million now, with the fee rising to around £6 million. And finally, Pep Guardiola could join Arsenal in the summer with Arsene Wenger moving upstairs, according to... wait for it... Trevor Sinclair! Guardiola is leaving Bayern Munich at the end of the season and has already been linked with a host of major clubs. Manchester City and Chelsea are front runners, but BBC pundit Sinclair says he could join Arsenal, with Wenger taking a director role. He made the claim on Twitter, insisting sources had told him the news.

China hands over another rural primary school to Zimbabwe HARARE, May 28 (Xinhua) -- The Chinese government on Saturday handed over to Zimbabwe a rural primary school as donation on the eve of the International Children's Day which falls on next Wednesday this year. The school, located in Lupane area of the Matabeleland North province, consists of ten classrooms, one computer lab and staff offices, as well as a 300-metre perimeter athletic track, a football pitch, and a basketball court, with a cost of 1.5 million U.S. dollars covered by a Chinese government grant, according to the constructor Anhui Foreign Economic Construction Co., Ltd. (AFECC). Lazarus Dokora, Zimbabwe's minister of primary and secondary education, said at Saturday's hand-over ceremony that the Chinese have shown that they are an all-weather friend by joining hands with the government of Zimbabwe in making a dream come true. He said education remains a bedrock of Zimbabwe's socio-economic development as a nation and the government is making all efforts to address issues of the shortage of education infrastructure in this country. Chinese Ambassador to Zimbabwe Huang Ping, on his part, pledged to continue to help Zimbabwe carry forward its education traditions, which is manifested in the maintaining of a over 90-percent literacy rate, among the highest in Africa. He said Chinese enterprises have been active in fulfilling their social responsibilities, one of which is shown in the construction of rural schools. The AFECC had completed a number of government grant projects in Zimbabwe, including the construction of Amai Grace Mugabe Junior School in Mazowe, a few years ago. At least two rural primary schools built by the Chinese were commissioned this year, one located in Bindura and the other on the outskirts of the national capital Harare.

Magnitude 5.7 quake strikes Northern California Fri May 24, 2013 2:53am EDT (Reuters) - A magnitude 5.7 earthquake struck Northern California on Thursday, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The epicenter of the quake was 6 miles northwest of the town of Greenville, and near the smaller community of Canyondam, the USGS said. There were no immediate reports of injuries. Allen Shephard, a hunting and fishing guide at Quail Lodge at Lake Almanor in Canyondam, said the quake knocked him "right off the couch and onto the floor." The floor of the lodge was littered with broken dishware, and cabinets were in disarray, said Shephard, 62. An initial report had said the quake was magnitude 5.9. A 5.7 magnitude quake is considered moderate, but has the potential to cause considerable damage.

train-091881	Today is Monday, September 11, 2017. When was the last time two United States Navy ships collided?	Tuesday, June 20, 2017. A Look at Earlier Collisions Involving Navy Vessels Nov. 20, 2014: U.S.N.S. Amelia Earhart and the U.S.N.S. Walter S. Diehl collided during an exchange of goods in the Gulf of Aden. Both ships resupply Navy warships for the United States Fifth Fleet, which is based in Manama, Bahrain. No one was injured. The accident happened during a tricky maneuver used by United States Navy and allied ships in which they come within 150 feet of each other to be resupplied with fuel and food without pulling into a port, according to the Navy's website. July 22, 2004: The U.S.S. John F. Kennedy, an aircraft carrier, and a dhow, a small traditional Arab sailing boat, collided in the Persian Gulf. The dhow sank immediately, and all those aboard are believed to have died. It is still unclear how many people were on it, but dhows - which are used mainly for transportation and fishing - can generally carry up to 15 people. The Kennedy - which was engaged in night air operations at the time - had made a hard turn to avoid the tiny vessel. The carrier was unscathed from the impact on its starboard hull; its crew and aircraft were all accounted for, but two jet fighters on the deck were damaged when the ship turned. The Navy relieved Stephen G. Squires, the commanding officer of the Kennedy, after the episode. "There is every reason to believe the collision was an accident, but there are force protection implications because warships make every effort to stay away from unknown small boats, which could pose a terrorist threat," a Navy spokesman said at the time. The Kennedy was involved in an earlier deadly accident, in Nov. 22, 1975, when a nuclear-powered cruiser, the U.S.S. Belknap, collided with the carrier in the Mediterranean Sea off the coast of Sicily, destroying the cruiser. A fire ensued just meters from the ship's nuclear weapons magazine, where nuclear-tipped Terrier surface-to-air missiles were kept. Crews were able to eventually extinguish the blaze, though it did burn for around 20 hours. Seven sailors perished on the Belknap and one on the Kennedy. Dozens were injured. The following year, on Sept. 14, the U.S.S. Bordelon, a destroyer that was one of the ships that had come to the rescue in the Belknap collision, collided with the Kennedy while refueling alongside the cruiser. Parts of the Bordelon were damaged, including its port bow and main mast, which fell, injuring some onboard. The Bordelon was decommissioned as a result. July 13, 2000: U.S.S. Denver, an amphibious transport dock, and the U.S.N.S. Yukon, a replenishment oiler, collided during a refueling exercise west of Hawaii. Both ships sustained significant damage. An investigation found that "human error caused this collision," with the Denver at fault. No injuries were reported. June 14, 1989: U.S.S. Houston, an attack submarine, which appeared in the 1990 film "The Hunt for Red October," snagged a tow cable of the commercial tugboat Barcona during filming off the coast of Southern California. The Barcona sank, and one crewman on the tugboat drowned.

JOSH Reynolds said the week off from Des - and spending a week in City camp with Freddy - could be the freshen-up he's been craving. Of the 34 players who take part in the City-Country fixture on Sunday, Reynolds is the man with the most to prove. A solid performance will end any speculation his Blues" No.6 jumper was under threat. Reynolds admitted he had a "weird start"" to the latest NRL season because of injury and suspension, and there had been moments he hadn't enjoyed rugby league. But the representative week was just what the Canterbury five-eighth needed. "Everyone says this, but I really had fun during this week last year, and it's good to change it up sometimes,"" Reynolds said. You go from Des Hasler, who is so on to everything, is so strict, and so good at what he does, to Freddy (Fittler), who is really relaxed, and who makes you do your stuff, but they're totally different people, different personalities, and I really enjoy it. It's good to meet new people."" The Bulldogs are outside the top eight after as many rounds, with plenty of headlines about the form of their halves Trent Hodkinson and Reynolds. WITHDRAWAL: Rabbitohs quiet on Keary foot injury COUNTRY: Thompson's fire to be a leader Reynolds and NSW coach Laurie Daley share a laugh. "I won't lie - some games have really done my head in, but some games I've felt that love back, not that I've ever lost it,"" Reynolds said. It really hurts me when we lose a game. I put a lot of the emphasis on myself, and it has been me a lot of the time (we've lost). I haven't had good games, and I'm not afraid to say that. Everyone goes through little patches, it's just how you come out of them. Footy is funny - one week you can have the world at your feet, the next week you can be in the dumps. It's how you react and back it up the next week."" Reynolds caught up with NSW coach Laurie Daley on Monday. Daley told Reynolds he was happy to give Hodkinson a rest from the City-Country game, but was keen for him to keep playing and building momentum. Fittler said he had spoken with Reynolds on a regular basis, and the chance to escape the ""the stresses of clubland"" was ideal. "Hopefully he can get here and relax, and not have to worry about the Dogs for a week,"" Fittler said.

train-069279	Today is Tuesday, April 7, 2009. When did JK Rowling marry her second husband?	Monday, March 16, 2009. Midwife who delivered JK Rowling's children accused of misconduct Last Updated: 4:13PM GMT 16 Mar 2009 The baby died after Deborah Purdue, 47, delayed sending the patient to hospital when she suffered complications, it is claimed. Purdue, who ran the Dorset and Wiltshire Independent Midwives company, attended the mother at her home near Poole, Dorset, in the early hours of July 19, 2005. But she left the woman in the birthing pool with midwife Frances Findlay while she wrote up her notes in the kitchen, the Nursing and Midwifery Council heard. Mrs Findlay told the hearing that she examined the patient to make sure the baby was not in the breech position. But Neil Millard, told a NMC hearing in London that Mrs Findlay was too inexperienced to be able to diagnose that the infant was the wrong way round. He said: "Over the seven-and-a-half years since you qualified you have attended six births a year as a primary midwife. That's not a lot of experience is it? You haven't got much experience of abdominal palpitations or whether it is a breech position or not. Mrs Finlay, who does not face charges, admitted she only delivers six babies a year but denies she lacked experience. The expectant mother was taken to Poole Hospital where doctors found she was in the process of having her baby, with parts of his lower body already bruised. But medics then had difficulty in delivering the child, the committee heard. Mr Millard said: "The baby was born at 7.52am in a very poor condition. Extensive resuscitation was given and the baby was placed on a ventilator but died later that evening at approximately 10.40pm. Purdue, who delivered JK Rowling's two youngest children, is accused of failing to properly monitor the woman and ignored warning signs the baby boy was in distress. She trained as a midwife in London before moving to Scotland where she worked at Ninewells Hospital in Dundee, from 1986 to 1989, before moving to Edinburgh. JK Rowling married second husband Neil Murray in December 2001. Purdue delivered the couples' two children, David, born in March 2003 and Mackenzie in January 2005. The Harry Potter author also has another daughter, Jessica, by first husband Portugese television journalist Jorge Arantes who was bron in July 1993 in Portugal. They separated in November 1993 and Rowling and her daughter moved to Edinburgh. After Jessica's birth, Rowling left her job as an English teacher to finish her first novel, Harry Potter and The Philosophers Stone. She was diagnosed with clinical depression during this period. Purdue, of Blandford Forum, Dorset, denies that her fitness to practice is impaired by reason of misconduct. She could face being struck off the nursing register if the charge is proved.

train-021601	Today is Friday, July 20, 2012. Where does Tomas Sobotka work?	Thursday, June 28, 2012. Population and recession: Europe's other crisis EUROPE'S crisis is worse than it looks. As if the continent's troubled financial markets and economy were not a big enough burden, a decade-long (and largely unnoticed) improvement in its fertility rate seems to have come to an abrupt end. Of the 15 countries that have reported figures so far this year, 11 saw falls in their fertility rates in 2011 (the fertility rate is the number of children a woman can expect during her lifetime). Some of the biggest declines occurred in countries hardest-hit by the euro crisis. Spain's fertility rate fell from 1.46 in 2008 to around 1.38 in 2011. Latvia's fell from 1.44 to below 1.20. Tomas Sobotka of the Vienna Institute of Demography points out that, in these countries, the fertility rise of the previous ten years has been wiped out in three. Big declines also occurred in Nordic countries that do not have fast-rising unemployment or big cuts in state spending. Norway's fertility rate fell from 1.95 to 1.88 in 2010-11; Denmark's from 1.88 to 1.76. But whether countries have high fertility rates, like Britain, or low ones, like Hungary, the trend is similar: a ten-year fertility rise stopped around 2008 as the economic crisis hit, and started to slide in 2011 (see chart 1). In the markets, three years is an age; in demography, it is the blink of an eye. Nine months at least must pass between an event and a corresponding change in the birth rate. Demographic statistics also tend to lag by a year or so. To see such a change in trend so soon after the start of recession is remarkable. But although there is a link between hard times and family formation, its nature is controversial. Adam Smith thought that economic uncertainty was bad for fertility. Others argued that recession increases births, by lowering the opportunity cost of children and encouraging women to have babies they wanted anyway during periods of unemployment. Europe's recent experience supports Smith. The economy has acted on population trends through migration, marriages and births. In some countries, recession has caused migrants to return home - and those migrants had high fertility. Spain saw an immigration wave from Latin America in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Partly because of this, the number of births in Spain exploded from 363,500 in 1995 to 518,500 in 2008 (a 43% rise). But as migrants went home, the increase in births went into reverse, falling to 482,700 in the year to June 2011. Marriages traced a similar course, rising from 199,000 in 1995 to peak at 214,300 in 2004 before tumbling to 164,600 in 2011. Not all migrants have behaved in the same way. Relatively few Poles have left Britain. And some migrants came from places with lower fertility than their hosts (eg, Balts in Scandinavia). But in most countries with large populations of untethered migrants, a recession-induced reversal of migration has cut fertility. Recession has affected the marriage and birth rates of native-born citizens, too. If young couples wait until they have a secure income before setting up home and having children, there will be a link between family formation and unemployment (especially male unemployment). France Prioux, of the Institut national d"études démographiques, plotted French unemployment against couples forming a union (marriage or cohabitation) over more than 20 years. The result is an almost perfect mirror image (see chart 2). These numbers go only to 2002, but the pattern seems to continue. America's Pew Research Centre asked 18-to-24-year-olds about their reaction to the recession of 2009: 20% said they had postponed marriage. Mr Sobotka plotted the link between unemployment and fertility in Latvia. He, too, found a mirror image, with births falling as unemployment took off, then rising as jobs flowed back. In Europe there is little doubt that recession has reduced fertility by cutting migration, marriages and births. What is in doubt is whether the fall is permanent or temporary. There are different ways to reduce fertility. Couples can decide to have fewer children, or can postpone the birth of a child. Both lower the fertility rate; but in the second case, it may recover later. Demographers call this a "tempo" effect. In most of the world, fertility rates have fallen because couples want fewer children. But a recent paper by Mr Sobotka and John Bongaarts of the Population Council, an American think-tank, argues that in Europe the tempo effect is what counts. As they note, the average age of first births has risen in most of western Europe since 1970. In 1970 the age at which most women had their first child was 22- 25. In 2008 it was 27-29. But from about 2000 to 2008 the pace of increase slowed markedly: women were no longer deferring children as much, and some were starting to have the children whose births they had postponed. Now the number of first births is falling more than later births in some countries, suggesting that people are postponing starting families. Three broad lessons emerge. First, population trends are more sensitive to the economic cycle than might be expected. Population trends are thought to set the stage for everything else ("demography is destiny" said a 19th-century French scientist). Second, the rise in fertility in the 2000s suggests that not all of Europe is caught in a low-fertility trap. Scandinavia, Britain and France all have relatively high fertility. Third, governments may have scope for policy measures to moderate the fall. Old-fashioned demographic policies were usually "natalist": they rewarded women who had many children. Russia still has these. They almost never work. But if demographic tempo is what matters, Europe's fertility might be more susceptible to government policy. Couples might respond to incentives like cheaper kindergartens or more parental leave by changing the spacing of children they want anyway.

Indonesia to end moratorium on mega land reclamation project-minister By Ed Davies and Fergus Jensen JAKARTA, Sept 28 (Reuters) - Indonesia is set to end a moratorium on a $40-billion land reclamation project involving 17 artificial islands off the northern coast of the capital Jakarta, a senior government minister told Reuters on Thursday. The ban was slapped on the project in April 2016 amid a bribery investigation by the anti-corruption agency and opposition from environmentalists. "There is no reason to keep the moratorium because the legal things, the technical things are all already settled," Luhut Pandjaitan, the coordinating minister for maritime affairs, said in an interview. The minister said he hoped by next week there would be a resolution to the matter, adding, "We are just waiting for another meeting and then we will announce." Jakarta, one of the world's most densely populated cities, sits on a swampy plain and is sinking at a faster rate than any other city in the world. Unable to stop the sinking, Jakarta has focused on bolstering its defences with a 15-mile (24-km) seawall and refurbishing the crumbling flood canal system. The master plan envisages the construction of artificial islands off Jakarta's northern coast, where property developers, such as PT Agung Podomoro Land, plan to build shopping malls and attractions similar to Singapore's Sentosa Island.

train-088534	Today is Monday, January 30, 2012. Which paper published the picture of Kate Middleton that she complained about?	Thursday, April 7, 2011. UK watchdog warns press away from Middleton family LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's media watchdog said on Thursday it has warned the country's press not to harass the family of Prince William's fiancee Kate Middleton. The independent Press Complaints Commission (PCC) -- charged with monitoring press coverage in Britain -- confirmed a warning had been issued to newspapers but would not divulge the full contents of its "private advisory notice." Middleton is to wed Prince William, second in line to the throne, on April 29th at an event that has generated huge international media interest and put the spotlight back on the often rocky relationship between the royals and the press. The issue is a particularly sensitive one for William, because his mother, Princess Diana, died in a Paris car crash in 1997 after being chased at high speeds by paparazzi on motorbikes. The BBC said the commission's warning concerned photographs taken by picture agencies, and on Wednesday several newspaper websites featured images of Middleton's mother and younger sister Pippa out shopping in London. "No formal PCC complaint has been made by the Middleton family about any breaches of the Editors' Code," a spokesman for William said. However, following some incidents of alleged harassment and pursuit by agencies and freelancers, the Middleton family, through the PCC, have sought to draw the attention of editors to their concerns. The Middleton family and St James's Palace remain grateful to editors for their restraint and adherence to the Code over the past few months. Media coverage of the royal couple has been generally positive and respectful since they announced their engagement in November, although former newspaper editors have warned that the "honeymoon period" might not last forever. Bob Satchwell, executive director of the Society of Editors, said a PCC warning was unlikely to be ignored. "I don't know of any instances where a request of that kind has been overridden," he said in a recent Reuters interview. That wouldn't have happened 20 years ago. Papers do take very seriously an advisory message from the PCC now and they happen frequently. In January 2007, the News International media group, the British arm of Rupert Murdoch's News Corp, banned its papers from using paparazzi photographs of Middleton. The group, which publishes the Sun and the News of the World tabloids, made the decision days after she was mobbed by photographers as she made her way to work on her 25th birthday. In March that year, she complained to the PCC after the Daily Mirror newspaper published a picture of her which she said was taken as the result of harassment. About six months later, William complained he had been aggressively followed by photographers on motorbikes as he left a club with Middleton.

train-092589	Today is Saturday, May 23, 2009. When would the Tories introduce their Fair Fuel Stabiliser plan?	Sunday, July 6, 2008. The Conservatives announced plans yesterday to curb rising petrol prices by cutting fuel tax when oil prices rise, saying the move would reduce prices at the pumps by 5p a litre. A Tory government would introduce a "Fair Fuel Stabiliser" to use the additional tax revenue generated by the oil price rise to absorb increases at the pump by 50 per cent. The Tories claim that the Treasury benefits from an additional £100 million a year for every $1 a barrel rise in the oil price and want to use this to "share the pain." They deny this will create a financial black hole because oil windfalls are not used when calculating spending plans. Motorists would also face tax rises on fuel if the price of oil dropped, with a target level set in the first Tory Budget. This is designed to ensure that the government met its revenue forecasts. The Tories claim that, had the Fair Fuel Stabiliser been introduced in the 2008 Budget, when unleaded petrol cost £1.08 a litre, then half of the 10p rise since then would have been absorbed by government. Ford Mondeo owners filling up at £1.18 a litre today would therefore save up to £3.50 on each tank of fuel under the Tories, and Vauxhall Astra drivers £2.60. Last week Gordon Brown said that the notion of a windfall was an illusion because rising fuel costs hit the economy and drive down the tax take in other areas. The Tories believe, however, that their plan would keep prices lower and would reduce inflation from 3.3 per cent to 3 per cent. About 60 per cent of the retail price of fuel is accounted for by tax, with the Tory figures showing a 115p-a-litre price for petrol is typically made up of 50.35p in fuel duty, 17.13p in VAT, 37.35p for the cost of the product and 10.17p for delivery and retail. The party issued a consultation document yesterday asking how frequently the fuel duty levels should be changed and how this change should be calculated. George Osborne, the Shadow Chancellor, said: "We need a totally different approach to fuel duty, where government helps families instead of harming them. A Conservative government would share the pain when oil prices rise, and share the gain if they fall. So when the price of oil goes up, fuel duty would actually be cut. And with duty rising when oil prices fall, we would be putting something aside in the good years to help in difficult times. Vince Cable, the Liberal Democrat Treasury spokesman and a former chief economist at Shell, said Mr Osborne was "presuming a knowledge of future trends in oil prices which is not shared by most people who look at these professionally." He said: "If George Osborne wants to be taken seriously, he needs to explain what assumptions he's making about the trend in oil prices." Kitty Ussher, Economic Secretary to the Treasury, said the Tories were wrong to assume a straight trade-off between oil prices and increased revenues. When oil prices go up, some revenues fall while others rise, because of the impact on business profits and household budgets. So if George Osborne were to do what he proposes, he would need to raise nearly another £3 billion in taxes elsewhere in this year alone to plug his tax gap - that's getting close to an increase of 1p in basic income tax. The AA, the motoring organisation, strongly backed the plans, with Edmund King, its president, saying that the organisation suggested a similar system to the Chancellor in January. "Record pump prices and high levels of excise duty are affecting the mobility of millions," he said. Mr Brown and Alistair Darling have hinted strongly that the 2p rise in duty due for the autumn will be suspended. £3.50 - What a Ford Mondeo owner would save when filling up under the plan Source: Conservative Party	[ "the first Tory Budget" ]	streamingqa	2009-05-23T07:00:00	2008-07-06T07:00:00	{"dimensions": [{"type": "entity", "value": "the Tories", "normalized": "Conservative Party (UK)", "criticality": "high", "reason": "Different political party would have different policy plans and timing"}, {"type": "event", "value": "Fair Fuel Stabiliser plan", "normalized": "Fair Fuel Stabiliser policy", "criticality": "high", "reason": "Different policy would have different introduction timing"}], "question_type": "factoid", "has_critical_dimensions": true}	false	When would the Tories introduce their Fair Fuel Stabiliser plan?
train-026312	Today is Friday, April 6, 2018. Who was Manafort's lawyer at the time?	Wednesday, March 28, 2018. NYT: John Dowd floated idea of pardoning Manafort and Flynn The conversations happened as special counsel Robert Mueller "was building cases against both men," the Times reported, which raises "questions about whether the lawyer, John Dowd, was offering pardons to influence their decisions about whether to plead guilty and cooperate in the investigation" into Russian interference in the 2016 election. Dowd resigned from the President's legal team earlier this month. In a statement to the Times, Dowd denied the report. There were no discussions. Period," he said, according to the Times. As far as I know, no discussions. In a statement, White House counsel Ty Cobb said he has "only been asked about pardons by the press and have routinely responded on the record that no pardons are under discussion or under consideration at the White House." White House press secretary Sarah Sanders referred to Cobb's statement when asked about the Times' report at a briefing Wednesday, later adding that pardons are "not currently" under consideration. Jay Sekulow, a lawyer representing the President, told the Times that "never during the course of my representation of the President have I had any discussions of pardons of any individual involved in this inquiry." The Times reported that Robert Kelner, whom the newspaper identifies as Flynn's lawyer, and Reginald Brown, Manafort's attorney at the time, declined to comment on the report. It is not clear if Dowd spoke with the President about the prospect of pardoning Flynn and Manafort prior to discussing the possibility with their lawyers, according to the Times. But the President discussed the subject of presidential pardons in a meeting with lawyers with the White House Counsel's office, the Times reports, citing a person who was briefed on what was discussed during the meeting. A grand jury had already been convened to look into evidence against Flynn by the time Dowd spoke with Kelner, the Times reports, while the conversation with Brown took place prior to an indictment handed down in October charging Manafort for various financial crimes. Flynn has pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russia's ambassador and is cooperating with Mueller's investigation. Manafort has been indicted by two grand juries as part of the Mueller investigation for foreign lobbying work, bank fraud and other business he conducted prior to his time leading the Trump campaign. He has pleaded not guilty to the charges. CNN's Allie Malloy and Jim Acosta contributed to this report.

train-035545	Today is Friday, July 5, 2019. Where does Citi have a share of less than 1%?	Sunday, June 9, 2019. Citi's plan to dodge Afterpay and Apple in gloomy credit card market Citi's growth push in credit cards is part a wider attempt to exploit the erosion in trust in the 'big four' after the banking royal commission, by pinching customers from the major lenders while are bogged down in regulatory spending and changes. "Here is our golden moment," Mr Machet said in an interview with the Sydney Morning Herald and The Age. I certainly don't think credit cards are going anywhere Citi head of retail banking, Alan Machet These guys have lots of change they need to do. They've got process, policy, technology investment, they need to make that is hard, and can get in the way of customer experiences, is not going to enable them to focus on their growth," Mr Machet said. Citi is the biggest credit card issuer in the world, and has 12 to 13 per cent of the domestic market, including via partnerships with Bank of Queensland's Virgin Money, Coles and Qantas. While consumers have grown more reluctant to rack up debt on plastic in recent years, Mr Machet said there was strong demand for a product that allowed borrowers to convert credit card purchases into an instalment plan, with repayments made at a lower interest rate, and over a set term. Citi says use of this option has increased six-fold in the last year, albeit from a low base. It predicts unsecured loans like this will become more common for financing spending such as holidays. I think it's going to become a core part of what's in a credit card. I certainly don't think credit cards are going anywhere," Mr Machet said. The traditional plastic credit card is also being challenged by "digital wallets," such as Apple Pay, which takes a slice of banks' revenue for allowing customers to use their phones to make tap-and-go purchases. However, Mr Machet said the domestic take-up of digital wallets had been lower than expected. "If you were to ask me three years ago, I would have said Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, Google Pay, are going to sweep away plastic," he said. While some customers were initially curious about using their phone to make purchases, he said they often later returned to using the plastic card. "We have not seen massive take-up in those, certainly [not] as much as we thought we would," he said. He said a longer-term source of value for banks in this area would be in providing digital services that integrate with loyalty schemes, such as Qantas frequent flyer points, and allowing customers to make purchases with their points. "All of that stuff is where our real opportunity is," he said. In the mortgage market, where Citi has a small share of less than 1 per cent, it has also been bucking the market-wide slowdown. It says settlements in the three months to May are up 64 per cent on the three months that immediately preceded that period. The bank is passing on the full 0.25 percentage points interest rate cut made by the RBA last week to its customers. While some bankers at the big four grumble the likes of Citi enjoy more favourable capital rules due to overseas regulation, Mr Machet played this down and said Citi had benefited from the overhaul of procedures happening inside the local banks. Citi underwent similar changes following the global financial crisis, he said. What we've found has happened over the last 12 month is people have moved to a standard similar to where we were. I think that's been very helpful for us," Mr Machet said. Mr Machet said last week's 0.25 percentage point reduction in rates would support the property market, but he said the banking regulator's plan to increase customers' borrowing capacity would have a bigger impact. Although most customers don't borrow their maximum amount, he said people often compared what they borrowed with their limit. "When they know they could get more, that's always going to help with confidence," he said	[ "the domestic market" ]	streamingqa	2019-07-05T07:00:00	2019-06-09T07:00:00	{"dimensions": [{"type": "entity", "value": "Citi", "normalized": "CitiGroup Inc.", "criticality": "high", "reason": "Different financial institution would have different market share data"}], "question_type": "factoid", "has_critical_dimensions": true}	false	Where does Citi have a share of less than 1%?
train-012826	Today is Sunday, March 15, 2009. What will President Obama be announcing on Wednesday?	Monday, February 16, 2009. WASHINGTON (AP) - It will take more than one "car czar" to help get the embattled U.S. auto industry back on track, President Barack Obama has decided. Instead, his administration is establishing a presidential task force to direct the restructuring of General Motors Corp. and Chrysler LLC, a senior administration official said Sunday night. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and National Economic Council Director Lawrence Summers will oversee the across-the-government panel, the official said, speaking on the condition of anonymity because no announcement has been made. GM and Chrysler are expected to submit restructuring plans to the government by Tuesday, the deadline for showing how they can repay billions in loans and become viable in spite of a huge drop in auto sales. The auto industry task force is just one element of Obama's plan to revive the flailing economy. On Tuesday he's flying to Denver to sign the $787 billion stimulus bill into law, taking his economic message to the American people, who are giving him high marks for handling the crisis. Obama will also be tackling the home mortgage foreclosure crisis. Passage of the stimulus measure - unprecedented in its cost - was a major victory for Obama as he struggles to lift the country from a financial nosedive unseen since the Great Depression of the 1930s. "I think it's safe to say that things have not yet bottomed out," press secretary Robert Gibbs said Sunday. The symbolism of the stimulus signing is obvious for Colorado, where a growing green-energy industry will draw major benefits from the plan. And Obama seems likely to continue selling that recovery by traveling around the country. With the stimulus victory in hand, Obama planned to shift to the housing crisis with an announcement Wednesday in Phoenix. Obama was expected to offer help to homeowners on the brink of foreclosure.
