"Why are you there?\" and he grabbed me then by the - by my back, by my bra strap and hauled me up and I'm trying to get up and I'm saying \"I'm trying.",
"I'm trying\". 'He drags me over to the middle of the room and says \"You stand here.",
"You stand here\" and then \"No, no, you sit here. No you stand here. \" 'Then he calls me. He calls \"You\" and indicates to mum.",
"Pulls her out. And he's hyper by this stage and he is anxious and, you know, alert and, you know, he has got his gun and he you know, he has got his gun and he - he is directing us and pushing us and, you know, you here.",
"Lindt Cafe manager Tori Johnson seen here at the open of the store in 2013 was one of two hostages killed in the Martin Place siege on December 16 .",

"The Australian Government is set to close the digital divide between the city and the bush by launching rockets and satellites into space to speed up internet connection speeds.",
"In a first for Australia, the National Broadband Network has announced work is complete on all ten of its ground stations and the the first rocket will be launched in the next few months.",

"The Australian Government is set to close the digital divide between the city and the bush by launching rockets and satellites into space to speed up the internet connection .",
"The news comes after Australia was recently ranked 44th on a global chart of internet speed in an Akamai report, suggesting schools business and homes in remote areas are falling behind.",
"The satellites should ensure internet services to 400,000 Australian homes and 1,600 public buildings including 1,400 schools will be vastly improved.",
"NBN Co's Satellite Architect, Julia Dickinson told Daily Mail Australia only a handful of these type of satellites have been launched into orbit, and they have all returned excellent results.",
"The satellites will appear stationary to anyone looking at them from earth, however they will be orbiting about 36,000 kilometres above the equator.",
"The main body of the satellites is about the size of a small bus or a large four-wheel-drive and the solar panels that extend from then measure about 26 metres - the length of a cricket pitch.",
"NBN Co's Satellite Architect, Julia Dickinson (pictured) told Daily Mail Australia that only a handful of these type of satellites have been launched into orbit in the past and they have all returned with smashing results .",
"They will provide broadband to about three per cent of Australians, who will have a small dish or antenna on the roof of their home of office.",
"'Most of the satellites now are for broadcast activities so these satellites are specifically purpose built for broadband,' Ms Dickinson said.",
"'They've all been very successful in the past.'",
"The satellites are set to cover the whole of Australia but NBN is targeting the people who live in remote areas.",
"'We’re expecting to get 100 times faster speed than what people in regional areas are currently experiencing,' she said.",
"The satellites are set to cover the whole of Australia but NBN are targeting the population who live in remote areas .",
"'We’ll ensure these people get access where they haven’t before.'",
"The rockets took six months to build but the massive satellites, which are some of the largest communication satellites ever built, took over three years to complete.",
"Ms Dickinson said the three year process is a lengthy one, which takes a lot of planning and designing.",
"'They've completed build and they've almost finished their testing and then we have to wait for a launch vehicle availability,' she said.",
"'The satellite testing has been really good the we're very happy with the results.'",
"The team will monitor the whole process from the ground stations located at Bourke, Wolumla, Broken Hill, Carnarvon, Geraldton, Kalgoorlie, Waroona, Roma, Geeveston and Ceduna .",
"The satellites go through a rigorous testing process.",
"They are shaken, vibrated, put in a vacuum, heated and cooled in a simulated environment to see how they will cope in space.",
"'It survived that really well and the second satellite is testing just as well,' Ms Dickinson said.",
"These satellites will be the first launched in the five-year history of NBN.",
"The company will monitor the satellites from ground stations at Bourke, Wolumla, Broken Hill, Carnarvon, Geraldton, Kalgoorlie, Waroona, Roma, Geeveston and Ceduna.",
"'Those of us who work in the satellite area have launched satellites before and been involved in satellite builds before,' Ms Dickinson said.",
"'It’s obviously very exciting and this project is really interesting because the satellites are specifically built for this and because we know it’s going to make such a difference to people’s lives.'",
"The next step for NBN is to wait for a launch date, which Ms Dickinson says is very hard to predict due to a number of factors.",
"However, she confirmed that the first satellite is ready to go and it will happen in 2015 .",
"NBN Co launched the 'Shoot for the Stars' competition to give Aussie school kids aged 5-12 the opportunity to decorate the nose cone of the rocket which will launch the first satellite into space.",
"In addition, the grand prize winner and their school will have the opportunity to name the satellite, etching their place in history.",

"Sir Jon Murphy (pictured), has claimed that schools are pushing up violent crime figures by reporting petty playground squabbles to police .",
"Schools are pushing up violent crime figures by reporting petty playground squabbles to police, a senior officer has claimed.",
"Sir Jon Murphy, Chief Constable of Merseyside Police, said fights between boys, or girls pulling each other’s hair are no longer dealt with by teachers.",
"Instead, staff are reporting minor incidents in playgrounds and classrooms to the police – driving an increase in one of the less serious categories of violent crime.",
"Official statistics show the figures for assault without injury are on the rise, but the Department for Education denied schools were to blame.",
"Sir Jon, who has been in the police for 40 years, was asked by local TV station Bay TV Liverpool why violent crime was increasing.",
"He said: ‘What has actually arisen, and it’s risen sharply, is what is referred to as violent assault without injury.",
"‘When you and I went to school, if a couple of boys had a fight in the playground, that would be dealt with by the school and it would never come out of the school.",
"‘If it was two girls pulling each other’s hair, that would never be reported to the police.",
"'A whole host of physical interactions between people – sometimes it’s a punch where there’s no real injury – are reported to the police in a way that they never were.’ Official figures back up Sir Jon’s claim that more minor assaults are being recorded.",
"After years of dramatic falls that had baffled experts, latest statistics show that violent crime is on the rise across England and Wales.",
"The Office for National Statistics said violent crime was up 16 per cent in the year to September 2014 – although it could be that these figures are simply more accurate than previous totals, following claims that many offences were being ignored.",
"Detailed figures seen by The Mail on Sunday show that there has been a sharp rise in the category of ‘assault without injury’, a type of common assault.",
"A decade ago there were 241,229 such offences recorded by police and by 2012-13 the figure had fallen to 198,390.",
"But in the 12 months to September 2014, there were 238,753 assaults without injury – the highest number for nearly ten years.",
"Statistics show figures for assault without injury are on the rise and the Department for Education has denied schools are to blame.",
"But official figures back up Sir Jon’s claim that more minor assaults are being recorded .",
"Home Office rules describe assault without injury as ‘an application of force which generates a feeling of touch or a passing moment of pain’.",
"Mike Hough, Professor of Criminal Policy at Birkbeck, University of London, said: ‘Jon Murphy is quite right that the increase in police-recorded violent crime is steepest for assault without injury.",
"‘My own belief is that the rise is a function not of real changes in crime, but arises from changes in recording practice.",
"His schools point may be part of the explanation.’ A spokesman for the Department for Education said: ‘We have not issued any guidance to schools on when they should call police to incidents.",
"It is very rare for police to be called to schools.’"

"His brother and son furiously dispute this conclusion, while this newspaper has seen documents which appear to challenge the inquiry’s findings.",
"These include a letter to Cpl McLaughlin’s commander, Lieutenant General Sir Hew Pike, written just days after the battle.",
"In it, another Para officer, Major Mike Argue, writes: ‘You have read my citation.",
"Prior to his death, he led his section like a demon on the rocks of Mount Longdon.",
"This was McLaughlin at his best.’ The inquiry dismissed this reference to a citation, and also ignored the recollections of General Sir Hew, who is adamant that a medal recommendation was written at the time.",
"How or when the citation was misplaced remains unclear.",

"Williams recalls being left 'looking up at a thug's snub-nosed .38 while selling Christmas trees out of the back of a truck.'",
"According to his story he was trying to help a local church when the thief grabbed his money.",
"'That wasn't a bad job, until a guy came up and stuck a .38-caliber pistol in my face and made me hand over all the money.",

"HBO's Bill Maher joked that Brian Williams told such big lies that he could work at Fox News .",
"But several longtime Red Bank residents aren't convinced by Williams' claims.",
"'I would highly doubt he's telling the truth,' Danny Murphy told the New York Post.",

"Even if you wear only mascara, you still need something to take it off effectively without irritating your eyes.",
"Many women struggle to find an eye make-up remover that is both effective and good for their skin (picture posed by model) Dr Hilary Allan, cosmetic dermatologist at Woodford Medical (woodfordmedical.com), advises trying make-up removers containing botanical ingredients, and staying away from fragranced formulations as they can irritate.",
"‘Micellar cleansing waters are water-based cleansers containing molecules that act like magnets, lifting away make-up and impurities from the skin,’ she says.",
"‘They tend to work well for sensitive eyes as they’re gently formulated.’ The new Garnier Pure Active Micellar Cleansing Water, (£3.33, Boots) is unperfumed and suitable for sensitive skin.",
"Sally Penford, education manager at the International Dermal Institute, says: ‘It’s always better to use a specialised product for the eyes rather than an ordinary cleanser, as these products are specially tested for use on the thin skin of this very delicate area.",
"‘A water-soluble oil is best for removing heavy eye make-up and waterproof mascara.",
"‘A gel is particularly good for people who wear glasses, contact lenses or have sensitive eyes because they are light, gentle and won’t leave a residue on the eyes.’ You don’t have to break the bank with eye make-up removers.",
"Here are my top budget options that are as easy on the purse as they are on the eyes: .",
"Bourjois Maxi Format Express Eye Make-Up Remover (£5, Tesco) Bourjois Maxi Format Express Eye Make-Up Remover (£5, Tesco) This non-greasy formula removes heavy, smoky eye make-up, liner and waterproof mascara without having to rub the sensitive eye area.",

"This is not 100 per cent organic, but at this price, I won’t hold that against it as it’s gentle, which is what we’re looking for.",
"9/10 . Halo Eye Make-Up Remover Pads (£1.50, Superdrug) Halo Eye Make-Up Remover Pads (£1.50, Superdrug) These hypoallergenic and fragrance-free pads are handy if you’re travelling and they are also fabulous for removing morning-after panda eyes if you failed to cleanse properly before going to bed.",

"‘If you are using a pencil, make sure it is sharp or you won’t get the fine, feathery strokes you need.",
"And you don’t want to draw lines that are too thick and end up with caterpillar brows.’ Elsa McAlonan (centre) visited make-up artists Sam (left) and Nic Chapman (right) for a lesson in the two-minute brow lift .",
"First, Sam applied a neutral shade of shadow, Maybelline Color Tattoo eye shadow in Strip Nude (£4.99, Boots), all over the lid using an oval shadow brush (£15, Real Techniques Bold Metals Collection, Boots).",
"Its full, round shape makes it easy to apply shadow quickly.",
"Next, Sam used a pointed crease brush (£12) to apply a darker brown shadow along the lash line and into the socket and then blended it in.",
"‘As we age, the lids droop, so doing this gives the illusion of a brow lift,’ she says.",
"The next step is to brush your brows into shape — upwards to give an arched look.",
"They used Maybelline Brow Drama sculpting mascara (£4.99, Boots), which is a tinted gel that sets your brows.",
"Colour is key: avoid too dark or too gingery.",
"The finishing touch is to apply a tiny amount of gel brow mousse — Anastasia Beverly Hills Dip Brow Pommade (£15, Cult Beauty) applied with an angled liner brush (£10), which can be used for liner and to fill in sparse brows.",
"This brush’s firm, slanted head allows you to get really close to the lash line, and it is also excellent for painting tiny fine strokes into your brows, making them look thicker and fuller.",
"If you buy only one make-up brush, make it this one.",

"A forgotten Magna Carta manuscript which could be worth up to £10million has been discovered in a Victorian scrapbook in a Kentish town's archive.",
"It has been hailed an important historical find in the week the four original copies were brought together for the 800th anniversary of the charter which established the principle of the rule of law.",
"The parchment, discovered in Sandwich's archive, was ripped and a third had been lost, but experts were able to establish it was issued by Edward I in 1300.",
"Speaking from Paris, Professor Nicholas Vincent, of the University of East Anglia, who authenticated the document, said: 'It is a fantastic discovery which comes in the week that the four other known versions were brought together at the Houses of Parliament.",
"Scroll down for video .",
"A forgotten Magna Carta manuscript which could be worth up to £10million has been discovered, pictured the four original surviving copies were brought together for the first time at the British Library .",
"King John signed the Magna Carta at Runnymede, near Windsor, in June 1215 – a moment hailed as one of the most significant in English history .",
"'It is a fantastic piece of news for Sandwich which puts it in a small category of towns and institutions that own a 1300 issue.'",
"Archivist Dr Mark Bateson discovered the historical document at the Kent County Council history and library centre in Maidstone.",
"It is one of only 24 editions of the Magna Carta in known existence around the world.",
"Professor Vincent said the fact Sandwich had its own Magna Carta means that is may have been issued more widely than previously thought to at least 50 cathedral towns and ports.",
"'And it is very likely that there are one or two out there somewhere that no one has spotted yet,' he said.",
"More than 40,000 people entered a public ballot for the chance to see the four surviving original Magna Carta copies, but only 1,215 will get the opportunity .",
"The medieval history expert said the value of the Sandwich edition could be up to £10million.",
"The first Magna Carta was agreed between King John and the barons in 1215 and was reissued on many occasions.",
"Dr Mark Bateson found the document in December when he was asked to look up a copy of the town's original Charter of the Forest.",
"It was found next to the charter in a Victorian scrapbook and its high value comes from the fact it also comprises the Forest Charter.",
"There is only one other such pair in the world, owned by Oriel College, Oxford.",
"It is understood that Sandwich does not intend to sell its Magna Carta but instead is hoping to benefit from its potential as a tourist attraction.",
"Paul Graeme, mayor of Sandwich Town Council, said: 'On behalf of Sandwich Town Council, I would like to say that we are absolutely delighted to discover that an original Magna Carta and original Charter of the Forest, previously unknown, are in our ownership.",
"King John signing the Magna Carta reluctantly by Michael, Arthur C, which was painted in 1945 .",
"'To own one of these documents, let alone both, is an immense privilege given their international importance.",
"'Perhaps it is fitting that they belong to a town where Thomas Paine lived, who proposed in his pamphlet Common Sense a Continental Charter for what were then the American colonies, 'answering to what is called the Magna Carta of England ... securing freedom and property to all men, and ... the free exercise of religion'.",
"'Through the American Declaration of Independence, continuing in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Magna Carta still underpins individual liberties worldwide.",
"'To own such a document - and the Charter of the Forest - is an honour and a great responsibility.'",
"The four known 1215 editions are from Salisbury Cathedral, Lincoln Cathedral and two held at the British Library.",
"They were brought together for a one-day exhibition at the British Library Parliament for a crowd of 1,215 chosen by a public ballot.",
"The first Magna Carta was agreed by King John (left) in 1215, pictured (right) is 13th century copy which sold for £10million .",
"Speaking of the exhibition, the Lord Speaker, Baroness D'Souza, said: 'Magna Carta established the principle of the rule of law and equality before the law; for 800 years we have been influenced by its contents and it remains one of the most important political documents in the world, with countries such as the United States, Australia, New Zealand and Canada tracing constitutional influences back to Magna Carta.'",
"The Speaker, Rt Hon John Bercow MP, said: 'Over the past eight centuries the public and their Parliament have shaped society and changed the way we live our lives.",
"'The sealing of the Magna Carta in 1215 and the Montfort parliament of 1265 marked the start of the journey towards modern rights and representation, paving the way for the House of Commons and democracy as we know it today.'",
"The parchment, which was issued by Edward I in 1300, is the final version of Magna Carta and three of its clauses remain on the statute books today.",
"These include the defence of the church, the protection of the City of London and the right to trial by jury.",
"The first Magna Carta was drafted by the Archbishop of Canterbury and agreed by King John on 15 June 1215 to make peace with a group of rebel barons.",
"It was reissued and reaffirmed on many occasions in subsequent years.",
"Eight centuries after King John sent copies of the first Magna Carta across his kingdom, just four remain.",
"Two of the survivors are kept at the British Library, were they lay alongside the other two copies which are usually found at Lincoln and Salisbury Cathedrals.",
"The two British Library copies came from the private library of the MP and and antique collector Sir Robert Cotton, whose collection of preserved documents laid the foundation for the library back in 1753.",
"One of these manuscripts was almost destroyed in a fire in 1731, suffering some damage but remaining largely intact.. Staff at the British Museum Library in the early 19th century also made it harder to read by using outdated techniques to flatten and mount the historic document.",
"The Salisbury Magna Carta has been at the Cathedral since the 13th century.",
"It may have been deposited there by William Longespée, Earl of Salisbury and one of King John’s chief advisers, or it may have come from Elias of Dereham, who supervised the building of the Cathedral from the 1220s.",
"The manuscript has rarely left the Cathedral in its 800 year history.",
"The Lincoln Magna Carta has belonged to the Cathedral for 800 years.",
"It is arriving at the British Library directly from the United States after going on display in Massachusetts and Washington, DC, where over 200,000 people viewed it.",
"On its return to Lincoln, the manuscript will move from the Cathedral into a new permanent home at the ‘Magna Carta Vault’ in nearby Lincoln Castle.",

"David Cameron insists his promised EU referendum could not be brought forward because he needed time to 'renegotiate a better deal for Britain' Britain will not get a say on leaving the European Union until 2017, after Downing Street rejected claims a referendum could be held next year.",
"Number 10 made clear there are 'absolutely no plans' to hold the referendum in 2016, after a minister was quoted as saying a vote next year was the 'preferred route'.",
"Prime Minister David Cameron told MailOnline the vote could not be brought forward because he needed time to 'renegotiate a better deal for Britain'.",
"However, Scottish and Welsh nationalists are demanding a veto on Britain leaving the EU, insisting every nation in the UK require a majority in favour of exit.",
"The Tories have promised that if they are returned to power, they will renegotiate Britain's membership of the EU before holding an in-out referendum by 2017.",
"But with the Lib Dems opposed to the timetable, and a hung parliament a likely outcome of the election, there are doubts about whether the referendum will happen.",
"In an interview with MailOnline last week, Mr Cameron banged the table and insisted the vote would happen if he remains prime minister: 'Yes.",
"By the end of 2017. Yes. Yes. Yes.' But there have been calls for him to bring the vote forward, to end uncertainty and give the people a say on the EU as soon as possible.",
"Asked why the referendum cannot happen sooner, Mr Cameron replied: 'Because I want to renegotiate a better deal for Britain, I think people would rather have a choice between staying in a reformed Europe or getting out rather than I think the false choice of today which is stay in Europe we are not satisfied with or leave.'",
"Today the Sunday Times reported that how holding the vote in 2016 was under consideration in Number 10.",
"A source told the paper: 'A referendum in 2016 is very actively on the table.",
"You would do a quick renegotiation, make a big statement at conference and get it done next year.'",
"However, the idea has been rejected by senior Downing Street figures who insist up to two years will be needed to secure a successful renegotiation with the other EU countries.",
"A No 10 source said: 'The Prime Minister has made a clear commitment to hold an in-out referendum on Europe by the end of 2017 - and the Conservatives are the only party that can and will deliver a referendum for the British people.",
"'But there are an absolutely no plans to hold the referendum in 2016.'",
"Mr Cameron has promised that if he is still Prime Minister after the election he will renegotiate Britain's membership of the EU before holding an in-out referendum by 2017.",
"Under the plan, the decision on whether to stay in the EU would be decided on a straight majority of all the people in the UK.",
"Chancellor George Osborne today played down the idea of an earlier vote, and rejected the idea that offering a referendum has increased instability.",
"But Scottish National Party leader Nicola Sturgeon has demanded that an outright majority in Scotland should be required.",
"The idea was backed today by Leanne Wood, leader of Welsh nationalists Plaid Cymru.",
"He told Sky News' Murnaghan: 'My position is that the votes in each of the countries should be added up separately and we should only pull out of the EU if all four countries want to do that.",
"'We have had a lot of talk during the Scottish referendum about the UK being a family of nations.",
"This is such a big decision that all members of the family need to be involved in taking that decision.'",
"Mr Cameron used a major speech in November to set out key demands on banning EU nationals from claiming in-work benefits or social housing in Britain for four years, deporting jobless migrants if they do not get work for six months and refusing to allow other countries to join the EU without imposing controls on the movement of their workers until their economies have reached UK levels.",
"Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond has been ordered to tour every European capital city before the election to build support for the Tory renegotiation.",
"Chancellor George Osborne played down the idea of an earlier vote.",
"'We would be delighted if we could conclude those negotiations sooner but we have set the end of 2017 as the deadline,' he told BBC One's Andrew Marr.",
"'The essential issue here, and again it's something which is at stake in this general election, is do we want to change our relationship with Europe, do we want a Europe including a Britain that is job creating, that is opportunity creating.",
"'Do we want to make sure that non-Euro members like Britain have a fair relationship with the Eurozone, and do we want to make sure that the British people have a choice in a referendum.",
"'And you only get that from David Cameron and from the Conservatives in this election.'",
"He rejected the idea that offering a referendum has increased instability.",
"'We've received a huge amount of investment form around the world since we set out our policy.",
"'Actually business and investors are the first people who say we want a more competitive European Union and a more competitive Britain within that European Union.'"

"Solicitor-general Robert Buckand is claimed to have been a member of the Invicta Film Partnership No 25 for nearly a decade .",
"A Tory MP has denied attempting to avoid tax after being named as an investor in a film partnership scheme under investigation by the tax man.",
"The scheme is thought to be under investigation by Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (HMRC) into whether it is a legitimate business or whether it was primarily set up as a way for investors to avoid paying tax.",
"It follows a court ruling against two other film partnership schemes in 2011 that found they were primarily used for tax avoidance.",
"Mr Buckland’s involvement in the scheme is potentially hugely embarrassing for David Cameron who has pledged to tackle tax avoidance.",
"The revelation comes just days after Mr Cameron faced questions in the Commons about Smythson, the upmarket leather goods firm employing his wife, being based in a tax haven.",
"Mr Buckland insisted that the companies he invested in were beyond reproach.",
"In a statement, the Conservative MP for South Swindon, said: ‘I have not attempted to avoid tax, and my investments are a matter of public record.",
"‘Before making them I asked an independent, accredited financial adviser to look into the companies, who found them to be completely beyond reproach.",
"‘HMRC look into many different types of investments, but I have been assured that there is no active investigation into my tax affairs.",
"‘I pay my taxes as required each year, and I have been fully open with government officials and declared my interests in line with usual reporting processes.’ The office of the Attorney General would not comment on whether Mr Buckland had provided legal advice on tax avoidance issues.",
"The Sunday Times reported Mr Buckland had joined the Invicta Film Partnership No 25 scheme in 2005, but a memo sent to members last year showed it was now ‘the subject of an open HMRC inquiry’.",
"HMRC has declined to comment on the case.",
"The partnership is a sale and leaseback scheme where the rights to a film are bought and then leased back to its producers.",
"Film partnership schemes were intended to boost the UK film industry by offering tax breaks for investors of low budget films.",
"But tax tribunal ruled in 2011 that investors in two film partnership schemes were not entitled to claim the tax relief as they were primarily being used for tax avoidance rather than for business purposes.",
"Most tax inquiries involving such schemes are currently at a standstill as the ruling is subject to appeal.",
"Chancellor George Osborne has branded ‘aggressive tax avoidance’ as 'morally repugnant’ Following a number of high-profile cases involving celebrities, the Coalition government pledged to crack down on tax avoidance – which is legal.",
"Chancellor George Osborne deemed ‘aggressive tax avoidance’ to be ‘morally repugnant’.",
"On Saturday, Labour leader Ed Miliband said: ‘There is nothing pro-business about defending tax avoidance.’ He added: ‘I am not going to back down.",
"The time has finally come to put an end to a society in which one group of people can play by different rules to the rest.’ Last year after Mr Buckland, a barrister, was appointed solicitor-general, it emerged that he had been found to have breached the legal profession's code of conduct in 2011.",
"A spokesman for the Attorney General's office said at the time: ‘It is a matter of public record that in May 2011, Robert Buckland was found to have committed a minor breach of the Code of Conduct of the Bar of England and Wales.",
"‘He was not suspended or fined and continued to practice and sit as a recorder.",
"‘This finding was removed from the Bar records after two years and therefore Mr Buckland was not required to declare it upon appointment as solicitor general.’ Last week it emerged that Samantha Cameron’s employer Smythson is owned through a holding company in Luxembourg and linked to a secretive trust in the Channel Island of Guernsey, another well-known tax haven.",
"The leather goods and luxury stationery firm, which has a store on New Bond Street that sells £2,000 python skin handbags, has employed Mrs Cameron as a creative consultant since 2010 on a salary thought to be up to £100,000 a year."

"'It's tough trying to find a place that meets all the proper (environmental) criteria.'",
"State snow disposal guidelines require that communities use locations that won't harm environmental resources and have barriers that prevent contaminants from seeping into groundwater when the snow melts.",

"Yesterday organisers refused to allow men and women to protest together, insisting they were segregated.",
"Despite the rally passing off peacefully with no arrests, the banners carried a thinly veiled threat of violence towards those who continued to exercise free speech.",
"Leaders of the protest also sparked anger by claiming the ‘extremist’ cartoonists massacred in Paris for depicting the Prophet Mohammed were as bad as the jihadis who gunned them down in cold blood.",
"A young boy was among those carrying placards saying Insult My Mum And I Will Punch You – quoting the Pope in the wake of the Paris attacks .",

"Earthquakes that rattled North Texas last month were concentrated along a fault line that runs through Irving into West Dallas, according to researchers.",
"Initially, the locations for the series of earthquakes were mapped centered on the former Dallas Cowboys stadium.",
"However, they have been found to run in a two-mile line north-by-northeast from Texas Highway 114 to Walnut Hill Road along the Trinity River.",
"The subsurface fault, which is ancient and has been reactivated, was narrowed down by researchers from Southern Methodist University (SMU) after they surveyed data from earthquake monitoring devices.",
"Scroll down for video .",
"The two-mile subsurface fault line runs north-by-northeast from Texas Highway 114 to Walnut Hill Road along the Trinity River (above a map of the epicenters of earthquakes from January 6 to January 23) Southern Methodist University seismologist Brian Stump (above) said that now that the the location and depth of fault has been identified, they can study how it moves .",
"There were a reported 26 felt earthquakes in January by the National Earthquake Information Center.",
"The earthquakes were relatively shallow and concentrated along a narrow two mile line extending from Irving into West Dallas, the preliminary findings revealed.",
"The fault line was discovered after SMU researchers reviewed data from 20 portable earthquake monitors they installed near the earthquake sites.",
"Seismologists said earthquakes have been felt in North Texas because of their location near the surface in the granite basement, according to WFAA.",
"The largest earthquake to date measured 3.6 in magnitude and there have been five earthquakes measuring over a magnitude of 3.",
"Earthquakes of magnitude 2.5 to 3.0 are generally the smallest people can feel.",
"From April 17, 2014 when the earthquake sequence began in Irving and Dallas to January 23, there have been 46 reported earthquakes.",
"The U.S. Geological Service plotted the epicenters of the first four of nine earthquakes (above) that occurred last month to northeast Irving, a Dallas suburb in North Texas .",
"The January series of earthquakes were mapped as being centered on the former Dallas Cowboys stadium (above) prior to enhanced data which revealed they run in a narrow line extending from Irving into West Dallas .",
"Some of the earthquakes were located near two wells drilled for shale gas, as well as a wastewater injection well.",
"The scientists have not drawn any conclusions from the location of the wells and the earthquakes.",
"As scientists continue to investigate the cause of the earthquakes that occurred on January 6, which were described as 'the largest' since they started happening last April, it is the first step forward.",
"SMU seismologist Brian Stump, said: 'This is a first step, but an important one, in investigating the cause of the earthquakes.",
"'Now that we know the fault's location and depth, we can begin studying how this fault moves – both the amount and direction of motion.'",
"His colleague Heather DeShon added: 'Then we can move on to what might have triggered it – examining factors both natural and man-made.",
"'Sometimes what triggers an earthquake can be very small, so all of these factors have to be considered when looking for that trigger.'",
"From April 17, 2014 when the earthquake sequence began to January 23, there have been 46 reported earthquakes (above the earthquakes mapped during that time frame) The mapping of the earthquakes from last month by seismologists will allow for city officials, if the fault remains actives, to know which areas of Dallas and Irving might experience the worst shaking - as there is no prediction for how long the series will last.",
"Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings has said he is looking at the city's building codes and a separate discussion will take place on whether they need to be changed or not, according to CBSDFW.",
"SMU plans to continue locating both felt and smaller earthquakes in the area, which will help to refine the geometry of the fault.",
"The Irving area, with a population topping 250,000, has had more than 25 minor earthquakes since early September, according to Stump.",
"About 40 miles west of Irving, a series of small earthquakes rattled the town of Azle a year ago, causing sinkholes and cracks in house foundations.",
"Residents blamed fracking and injection disposal wells for drilling waste as the cause but an official finding is still pending."

"The 25 groups, including the Muslim Women’s Network, the Hindu Council and the Sikh Women’s Alliance, have written to every MP to demand the change.",
"Around 100 MPs have said they will support an amendment making it clear that it is illegal under the 1967 Abortion Act to terminate a pregnancy on the grounds of the unborn child’s sex.",
"Campaigners say the practice is more common among many of Britain’s ethnic communities, where girls are less prized than boys.",
"Religious groups representing Muslims, Hindus and Sikhs have banded together to demand an end to sex-selective abortions.",
"File photo .",
"The letter expresses regret at the unwillingness of parties on both sides to see beyond the rhetoric around whether they are ‘pro-choice’ or ‘pro-life’.",
"It states that the wording of the present law, which does not specifically rule out sex-selective abortions, provides ‘mixed messages’ which is ‘causing confusion’.",
"The British Pregnancy Advisory Service, for example, argues that sex-selective abortion is not illegal because ‘the law is silent on the matter’.",

"The amendment reads: ‘Nothing in section 1 of the Abortion Act 1967 can be interpreted as allowing a pregnancy to be terminated on the grounds of the sex of the unborn child.’ The letter says: ‘Since news broke of the sex-selective abortion amendment to the Serious Crime Bill, we have been concerned by how much airtime has been given to radical voices opposing the initiative.",
"‘Sex-selective abortion must end.",
"We were campaigning for this long before Fiona Bruce or anyone else became interested.",
"We are delighted that so many MPs have responded positively to our efforts.’ The letter adds: ‘If the current framing of the law allows the British Pregnancy Advisory Service to argue that sex-selective abortion is not illegal because “the law is silent on the matter”, or the British Medical Association to say that aborting for foetal sex is permissible in some circumstances, then the law requires clarification.",
"‘To be clear: the amendment does not change the grounds of the Abortion Act.",
"It merely makes explicit something which is already unlawful.",
"‘It does not preclude abortion where there is a sex-linked disability in the foetus.’"

"Confident: Louis van Gaal (right) seems to have already transformed United back into a winning team .",
"Meeting of minds: Van Gaal speaks to his coaching staff after the pre-season friendly between United and Liverpool .",
"1. Van Gaal is a winner.",
"It sounds a simple enough quality but one that cannot be underestimated at United after the club’s shocking decline under David Moyes.",
"The Dutchman has taken largely the same group and transformed them into a team which, even at this early stage, will clearly be a very different proposition.",

"Not giving in: United came from behind to defeat Liverpool in their latest pre-season friendly .",
"2. The Dutchman is not scared to make radical changes.",
"The new 3-4-1-2 formation is quite a departure from United formations under Sir Alex Ferguson and Moyes, but Van Gaal believes that is the best system to get the most out of the players at his disposal.",
"Rather than simply throwing money at new signings, he is prepared to alter the fundamental line-up of the team to suit the players he has.",
"Those who don’t fit into his plans – Fellaini, Nani, Anderson, Hernandez and Kagawa – will not be kept hanging around.",
"They will be shipped out at the first opportunity.",
"On the move? Van Gaal looks set to allow several players to leave the club, including Marouane Fellaini (above) 3.",
"Wayne Rooney is onside with the new regime.",
"Having almost left United in Ferguson’s final season because of the favouritism shown towards Robin van Persie, and then been cajoled back into line by Moyes, there were concerns that Van Gaal’s close relationship with Van Persie would alienate Rooney all over again.",
"Instead, he has scored five goals on tour, won the Most Valuable Player award at the International Champions Cup and impressed the manager to such an extent that he is set to be named captain ahead of Van Persie.",

"He never looked comfortable playing in a wider position under Moyes following hsi £37.1million move from Chelsea, and there were even questions about his future at Old Trafford when Van Gaal came in.",
"But Mata has benefitted from the manager’s willingness to mould the system around the players he likes, and the Spaniard appears much happier in the new system.",
"Kagawa, on the other hand, has been deemed surplus to requirements.",
"In the middle: Juan Mata will be United's first choice No 10 after a good pre-season with Van Gaal's side .",

"5. Ashley Young has a future at United after all.",
"If you had to draw up a list of players likely to leave Old Trafford if Moyes had stayed at the club, Young would have been towards the front of the queue right behind Anderson.",
"Even when Van Gaal took over, his aversion to using out-and-out wingers meant that Young, Nani and Wilfried Zaha were immediately under threat.",
"Young has tried to reinvent himself as a wing-back in the mould of Antonio Valencia, even though his defensive deficiencies were exposed by Raheem Sterling against Liverpool.",

"Ron Rohbock, 63, was looking on at a store parking lot in Mesquite, Nevada, when a white truck registered to a member of the polygamous cult, known as the FLDS, drove up and stopped.",

"Gatwick Airport has launched an urgent investigation after a man passed through to the departure lounge without a ticket.",
"The man, believed to be a Turkish national, managed to pass through the security area and reach the departure lounge at around 8.20am this morning, despite not having a boarding pass.",
"The incident comes less than a week after it was revealed that security checks were being enhanced at airports with uncharged electronic devices being refused access.",
"Security breach: A man got airside at Gatwick Airport this morning despite not having a boarding pass .",
"It is believed that the man was not intending to travel, but wanted to see his family off.",
"They passed through a buggy lane – but security staff failed to tally the number of boarding passes with the number of people coming through.",
"They then passed successfully through the airport’s scanning procedures and into the departure lounge.",
"Shopped: A retail unit asked the man for his boarding pass and alerted security teams when he failed to produce one .",
"Airport security staff were alerted to the breach by a retail unit, which as a matter of course had asked the man for a boarding pass when he tried to make a purchase.",
"One source told The Surrey Mirror: ‘A Turkish man managed to walk straight through customs to departures - and he had no tickets.",
"He managed to get airside.",
"‘It’s a huge breach of security but staff have been told not to talk about it and not to tell anyone.",
"I think it’s appalling.",
"‘How did he get through? He was with his wife and came through the buggy and family track.",
"Security are playing it down and saying it’s no big deal but it is.’ A Gatwick Airport spokesperson said: ‘Earlier this morning a gentleman accompanying his family through the airport was incorrectly allowed access to the departure lounge without having a boarding pass.",
"‘The incident is being investigated but all individuals correctly passed through the series of full security search and screen processes.’ The electronic device checks introduced by the Department for Transport last week will not affect all UK passengers.",
"Although they have refused to make public the routes affected, ministers have provided a list of flights they consider require additional security checks.",
"It is understood this includes flights to and from the Middle East, Africa and parts of southern Europe.",
"If your flight is hit by additional security checks, it is unlikely you will know much about until you reach the boarding gate.",
"Arriving at the airport, passengers will check-in their hold luggage and pass through body and bag scanners into the departure lounge in the usual way.",
"This will include ensuring all electronic devices being taken on board the flight - such as cameras and laptops - are packed away inside hand luggage bags.",
"Passengers are likely to expect extra checks if they are called to the departure gate earlier than usual.",
"This is to allow for the extra time it takes security staff to check every electronic device is working properly.",
"The Department for Transport says all passengers arriving or leaving the UK must prepare for the special measures.",
"The teams working on the checks will have been hired by the airlines themselves, not by the airport, but the Department for Transport has insisted all will be fully qualified security staff.",
"If, for whatever reason, your device fails the security check, you will be forced to leave your device behind, and may even be banned from taking the flight itself."

"The elderly man was pushed into the garishly lit room.",
"In front of him, a smartly dressed man in a frock coat held out his hand.",
"Instinctively, the elderly man shook it, briefly noting the absurdity of formally greeting his executioner.",
"However, his attention was distracted by the sight of a long black table in the centre of the room, attached to which were buckles and straps.",
"And, rising above the table, hanging menacingly high, was a huge silvery-black blade.",
"Within a few moments, the condemned man was bound face-down on the table and a steel rod was pressed on to his back.",
"With his face looking into a basket, his nostrils detected the smell of dried blood over the stench of disinfectant and sawdust.",
"Grim discover: The Nazi guillotine which was used to kill thousands of people during the Third Reich .",
"This, he knew, was the very minute of his death.",
"But the man had other plans. Thanks to a glass vial of cyanide hidden in his mouth, he would cheat the guillotine and take his own life.",
"The Nazis may have sentenced him to death — but he would control his final moment.",
"Above him, the executioner whispered: ‘Now!’ The man bit down on the capsule, but as he did so, he could hear the rushing sound of the blade falling.",
"For an agonising split second, he knew that he had left it too late: the blade would claim him before the poison.",
"As his head landed in the basket, his decapitated torso convulsed, pushing itself up against the straps.",
"For a few moments, the executioner’s assistants held it down.",
"Then, everything was still.",
"This gruesome scene comes from a classic 1947 novel by Hans Fallada called Alone In Berlin.",
"Though fictional, it is based on the tragic true story of Otto and Elise Hampel, a working-class couple who were guillotined in Berlin’s notorious Plotzensee Prison in 1943 for distributing anonymous postcards denouncing the regime.",
"Victim: Sophie Scholl, student at Munich University and a member of The White Rose, an anti-Nazi resistance movement, was found guilty for treason on April 22 1943 and executed by guillotine on the same day .",
"Today, we associate the guillotine with the brutality of the French Revolution, when 16,549 men and women were executed by the device.",
"However, the Nazis were equally devoted to it.",
"They are thought to have beheaded almost as many victims as the French Reign of Terror during their 12 horrific years in power.",
"The Nazis’ use of the guillotine came disturbingly to light again over the weekend, when the guillotine used to chop off the head of one of the regime’s youngest and bravest opponents was re-discovered in the basement of the Bavarian National Museum in Munich.",
"Experts have concluded that the guillotine, which has been hidden in a store room for decades, was responsible for the beheading of the 21-year-old Sophie Scholl on February 22, 1943.",
"Her ‘crime’ was to have been a leading member of the White Rose movement, which had peacefully resisted the regime by writing anti-Nazi leaflets and distributing them around university students in Munich.",
"Sophie was the first of her fellow conspirators to be led to her death, which took place within just three hours of being found guilty by the rabidly Nazi judge, Roland Freisler, in his People’s Court, notorious for its kangaroo trials.",
"Sibling: Hans Scholl, Sophie's brother, also a member of the White Rose, and was beheaded in February 1943 .",
"At 5pm that day, she was led from the cell she shared with her brother Hans and their friend Christoph Probst, also members of the White Rose movement.",
"According to one account, Sophie walked proudly across the yard to a small building, which contained the guillotine.",
"Before being strapped down, Sophie is said to have uttered these, her last words: ‘How can we expect righteousness to prevail when there is hardly anyone willing to give himself up individually to a righteous cause?",
"Such a fine sunny day, and I have to go, but what does my death matter, if through us, thousands of people are awakened and stirred to action?’ Within seconds, the young woman’s head lay in a bloodied basket.",
"She was just one of the 3,009 people despatched by Nazi Germany’s leading executioner, Johann Reichhart, who was later to claim that Sophie was the bravest person he had killed.",
"Within the hour, Reichhart had also beheaded Hans Scholl and Christoph Probst.",
"Hans is reputed to have shouted ‘Long live freedom!’ as he was marched across the prison yard.",
"Soldiers: Hans Scholl (right), pictured with Alexander Schmorell (left), a fellow resistance fighter who was executed in the summer of 1943 .",
"It is often forgotten that, when the Nazis took office, they were initially cautious about using the death penalty.",
"Their grip on power was not as firm as it would come to be and they were aware that public opinion might turn against them if they executed too many of their own citizens.",
"At Plotzensee Prison, for example, where the execution described in Hans Fallada’s novel takes place, only 45 people were put to death from 1933 to 1936 — a figure that would be dwarfed in years to come.",
"In those early years of the Nazi regime, Hitler was concerned by the idea that, across Germany, methods of judicial execution varied.",
"There was the guillotine, but also hanging, shooting, and perhaps most medieval of all, the axe.",
"Hitler therefore established a commission to standardise the way in which he would put supposedly miscreant citizens to death.",
"At first, the Fuhrer was reluctant to use the guillotine, as it carried with it the alarmist image of the French Reign of Terror.",
"He preferred to remove people to the concentration camps.",
"‘At least we have not set up a guillotine,’ Hitler said in a news-paper interview at the end of 1933.",
"‘Even the worst elements have only needed to have been separated from the nation.’ However, in October 1936, acting on the advice of his justice minister, Franz Gurtner, Hitler decided that the guillotine should be Nazi Germany’s preferred method of execution.",
"Twenty guillotines were secretly ordered — and distributed to prisons across the Reich.",
"Last act of defiance: Hans (left), pictured with his brother Werner, is believed to have shouted 'Long live freedom' before he was killed .",
"Over the following eight-and-a-half years, some 16,500 souls were killed with the device.",
"Though it was talked of as a supposedly painless way to die, there is anecdotal evidence that the brain still functions within the severed head for at least 90 seconds after the blow.",
"Nevertheless, one Nazi doctor was to claim absurdly that a trip to the ‘dentist was worse than the guillotine’, because the severance of any nerve endings in the beheading meant the brain would not feel any pain.",
"Those who were killed came from all walks of life — and all age groups.",
"The youngest to be beheaded was Helmuth Hubener, who was just 17 when he was guillotined for distributing anti-war leaflets around Hamburg.",
"After he had been sentenced to death, Helmuth said to the judges: ‘Now I must die, even though I have committed no crime.",
"So now it’s my turn, but your turn will come.’ The sentencing of a child to death appalled many.",
"Even members of the Gestapo appealed for clemency.",
"However, at 8.13 on the evening of October 27, 1942, Helmuth was beheaded.",
"For executioners such as Sophie Scholl’s killer Johann Reichhart, the Nazi boom in the use of the guillotine made them wealthy.",
"Those who dropped the blade were paid 3,000 Reichsmarks per year — and received a 65 Reichsmark bonus per execution.",
"Reichhart made enough to buy a villa in an affluent Munich suburb.",
"Fallen: Willi Graf, another member of the anti-nazi resistance movement, was found guilty for treason and executed by guillotine in 1943.",
"Cruelly, the Nazis even charged the families of those they had imprisoned and beheaded.",
"For every day that a prisoner was held, a fee of 1.50 Reichsmarks was charged.",
"The executions cost 300 Reichsmarks.",
"Even the 12 pfennig cost of posting the invoice was demanded back by the Nazi state.",
"On October 12, 1943, another member of the White Rose sat in his prison cell waiting for the guillotine.",
"His name was Willi Graf, and he had acted as a recruiter for the group.",
"He wrote to his family that morning.",
"‘On this day I’m leaving this life and entering eternity,’ he wrote.",
"‘What hurts me most of all is that I am causing such pain to those of you who go on living.’ They had no idea that Willi had been beheaded and found out the truth only when a letter they sent to him was returned, stamped with the bald word ‘Deceased’.",
"His own letter reached the Graf family a few days later.",
"It is likely that Willi met his fate on the same guillotine as Sophie Scholl.",
"In fact, several hundred — perhaps more than 1,000 — died on this piece of macabre machinery.",
"Today, the Germans are divided as to what to do with the instrument of death and misery unearthed from the Munich museum’s basement.",
"Some think the guillotine should form the centrepiece of a new exhibition about those who resisted the Nazis.",
"Franz Josef Muller, on the other hand, the last surviving member of the White Rose, feels that it should stay locked away.",
"‘No, this should not go on display,’ the 89-year-old Muller says.",
"‘No entertainment must be made of their violent deaths.",
"The memory of Sophie and Hans is deep within me.",
"I think of them every day.’"

"New questions have arisen in the Deflategate scandal as it is now being reported that all 24 of the Patriots footballs were tested prior to the game under standard NFL practices, and all 24 passed inspection.",
"What's more, Colts linebacker D'Qwell Jackson, assumed by many to have put the events in motion which led to the current NFL investigation of the New England Patriots, has denied stating that a ball he intercepted from Tom Brady during Sunday's AFC Championship game felt underinflated.",
"Speaking to the press following a Pro Bowl practice on Thursday, Jackson said; 'I'm a linebacker, I'm a defensive guy.",
"If anybody recognized anything it definitely wouldn't come from me.'",
"This as many are calling on the NFL and commissioner Roger Goodell to make a statement about just what caused 11 of the team's 12 balls to have less air pressure than is required by league rules.",
"Scroll down for video .",
"Indianapolis Colts linebeacker D'Qwell Jackson (above) has denied having anything to do with Deflategate, saying a ball he intercepted from Patriots quarterback Tom Brady on Sunday did not feel underinflated .",
"'I'm a linebacker, I'm a defensive guy.",
"If anybody recognized anything it definitely wouldn't come from me,' said Jackson of intercepting Brady (above) Meanwhile, many are wondering when the NFL and commissioner Roger Goodell (above) will offer an explanation as to what happened to make 11 of the team's 12 balls underinflated .",
"'According to an NFL source with direct knowledge of the situation, referee Walt Anderson inspected all 24 of the Patriots’ footballs with a pressure gauge supplied by the league, as well as all 24 footballs from the Colts' reports The Boston Globe.",
"'All 48 footballs were found to be within the allowable range of 12.5-13.5 pounds per square inch.'",
"Furthermore, when officials decided to swap out the 12 balls at the half, they grabbed the other 12 that had previously been tested, and were properly inflated.",
"As for why Jackson, and why he tossed the football he intercepted to a member of the Colts' equipment staff after he picked off Brady, he claims he just wanted a 'souvenir,' and that anything that happened after that is 'beyond' him.",
"'I don't know how it got to this point,' he said.",
"'Somehow I'm in the middle of it.'",
"He even went so far as to say he thought the entire thing was 'comical' when he first heard about it on Monday.",
"Jackson also addressed rumors that the Colts organization had noticed that the Patriots were playing with underinflated balls earlier this year during a regular season game in November, saying that no one on the coaching staff told the players to look out for anything on Sunday and that they were all just focused on the game.",
"His fellow teammate and Pro Bowler, safety Mike Adams, also seemed eager to downplay the Deflategate scandal on Thursday, telling reporters; 'I'm not going to even touch that subject.'",
"Others however, especially former players, are calling for the NFL and Goodell to come down hard on the Patriots, specifically Brady, with many former players saying there is no possible way the quarterback had nothing to do with the team's underinflated balls on Sunday.",
"Some are also none too happy the Goodell (center) spent Sunday before the game with his good friend, Patriots owner Robert Kraft (second from right) Brady shocked many at a press conference on Thursday (above) when he said the NFL had yet to even speak to him about the underinflated balls .",
"At a press conference Thursday afternoon Brady told reporters; 'I would never do anything outside of the rules of play.'",
"He then added of his pregame ritual; ' When I pick those footballs out, at that point, to me, they're perfect.",
"I don't want anyone touching my balls after that.",
"I don't want anyone rubbing them, you know, putting any air in them, taking any air out.",
"To me, those balls are perfect and that's what I expect when I show up on the field.'",
"Not buying that is former Dallas Cowboys star Troy Aikman, who, like Brady, has three Super Bowl rings, and who told a Dallas radio show; 'It's obvious that Tom Brady had something to do with this.'",
"This sentiment, expressed by many, makes Brady's statement yesterday the neither the NFL or Goodell has sat down with him to talk about what happened even more shocking.",
"Not helping matters either is the fact that Goodell spent the hours before Sunday's game enjoying some time with Patriots owner Robert Kraft, a longtime pal.",
"Some are saying that Brady should be benched and replaced by backup quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (above in 10 behind Brady) for next Sunday's start .",
"Even Patriots fans have reached their breaking point with the team, with the Boston Globe saying if the team truly had nothing to do with the scandal they need to come out and make it clear now.",
"Because, as it looks now, despite the fact that Brady may get his fourth Super Bowl ring a week from Sunday, tying him with all-time greats Joe Montana and Terry Bradshaw, and coach Bill Belichick may join former Pittsburgh Steelers Chuck Noll as the only other man with four Lombardi trophies, the team has lost their claim as the greatest football dynasty of all time.",
"'But the most important thing - the Patriot legacy - is lost,' writes Dan Shaugnessy.",
"'The Patriots and their fans will never win the best ever argument.",
"Everything is tainted.",
"Footballs (reportedly) have been doctored, headlines have been written, and opinions have been formed.'",
"There is however a chance that this scandal could lead to a new era in Patriots football, especially if the league decides to bench Brady and Jimmy Garoppolo steps in for next Sunday's start."

"Mr Greenspan warned that he could not see anyone willing to offer loans to the country.",
"Athens has until the end of the month to secure around £5billion of financing to keep the Greek economy running.",
"Failure to do so would cause the nation to default on its debts and pull out of the single currency, the former Federal Reserve chairman said.",
"But the country’s far-Left Syriza party has vowed to ditch austerity, setting the nation on a collision course with the rest of the single currency bloc.",
"New prime minister Alexis Tsipras has pledged to write off some of the country’s debts and renegotiate the terms of its £185billion bailout package — a deal that Germany has already said is ‘too generous’.",
"Mr Greenspan told the BBC yesterday: ‘Greece’s position is if they don’t get additional loans they will default and leave the Euro.",
"‘I don’t see any people willing to put in their funds having been disappointed so often.’ He added: ‘All the cards are being held by the members of the eurozone.’ Alan Greenspan was the chairman of the Federal Reserve, the US central bank, between 1987 and 2006.",
"His dire assessment comes as George Osborne warned that Greece leaving the euro would cause ‘real ructions’ in the UK economy.",
"The Chancellor said: ‘This stand-off between Greece and the eurozone is increasing the risk every day to the British economy.",
"‘Greece has worked hard to stay in the eurozone, and frankly a Greek exit from the eurozone in my view would have very serious consequences.’ The Chancellor will today fly to Turkey for a meeting of the G20 finance ministers, with the economic crisis facing the eurozone high on the agenda.",
"There is an EU summit later this week, and on Wednesday next week the European Central Bank will vote on whether to extend loans to Greece.",
"Greece’s bailout is arranged by a trio of lenders, called the Troika – the European Central Bank, the European Union and the International Monetary Fund.",

"In spite of the parlous state of the country’s finances, his policies include free electricity for poorer citizens and hiking the minimum wage.",
"He will meet EU leaders in a summit in Brussels on Thursday to set out his demands.",
"But Mr Greenspan warned that Greece’s exit would be ‘miniscule’ compared to the effect of the Eurozone breaking apart – something that he thinks is inevitable.",
"He warned that Greece could be forced out of the single currency bloc – the first country to leave.",
"This would lead to others following, and could eventually see the Eurozone split in two, with the richer Northern nations divided from the Southern countries.",
"He added: ‘I believe [Greece] will eventually leave.",
"I don’t think it helps them or the rest of the eurozone, it is just a matter of time before everyone recognises that parting is the best strategy.",

"They are said to taste like asparagus, celery or fennel when cooked and were eaten by the Aztecs, who praised them for their taste and health benefits.",
"And now growers - who have spent two years developing edible dahlias - say they can be substituted for any potato dish.",
"The dahlias will be on sale from March this year and come in six varieties - Hoamatland, Black Jack, Kennedy, Sunset, Buga Munchen and Fantastic.",
"Growers have spent two years developing the edible dahlias after taking inspiration from the Aztecs, who would eat the bulbous roots of the common garden blooms for their taste and nutritional value .",
"They are said to taste like asparagus when cooked, while others taste similar to celery and fennel .",
"Swiss growers Lubera are urging amateur gardeners to plant the dahlias by May so that when the flowers die out at the end of the summer they can eat what's left of the plant.",
"The six varieties each has with its own taste.",
"They're also healthy because they're packed full of carbohydrates.",
"The edible dahlias, called DeliDahlias cost £4.99 for a 1.3-litre pot of young flowers.",
"Dahlias are easy to grow and will thrive in a wide range of soil types and situations.",
"They are best planted in fertile, well-drained soil in full sun in May to early June.",
"Planting could be carried out slightly earlier in southern counties or later in the north of England and Scotland.",

"Fossils of bacteria found in Australia are the oldest yet discovered anywhere on Earth and predate the formation of oxygen on our planet, new research claims.",
"The fossils found in north-west Australia's Pilbara region are thought to be nearly 3.5billion years old and caused by bacteria which existed just one billion years after the Earth formed.",
"Now Old Dominion University's Nora Noffke, one of the researchers who worked on the project, says the discovery could help inform Mars rover Curiosity's searches for traces of life on the Red Planet.",
"A boulder trapped in the Knox Gorge, Pilbara: Researchers examining sedimentary rocks in this region of Western Australia claim they have found the world's oldest fossils which date back 3.5billion years .",
"She told the Washington Post the bacteria traces 'are the oldest fossils ever described.",
"Those are our oldest ancestors.'",
"The fossils are spider web-like imprints on the surfaces of sandstone which are thought to have been sculpted by once-living organisms interacting with sediment.",
"In a process that still takes place in some parts of the world today, thick mats of bacteria are thought to have trapped and glued together sand particles beneath them and protected them from erosion.",
"Sand stuck in this way gradually turned into rock with its particular texture shaped by the living organism that once covered it.",
"The ancient rocks in Western Australia's Pilbara region are some of the oldest anywhere on earth.",
"Once shoreline, the sedimentary rocks in the area piled up billions of years ago and are now exposed for examination.",
"Scientists have discovered older rocks, but Professor Noffke told U.S. News that those rocks have eroded to the point traces of life are all but impossible to find.",
"'I can confidently say the structures we're working on cannot be found on older rocks — until now, there has been bothing that is this well preserved,' she said.",
"'There are some that are much older, but they experience metamorphosis - anything that's on them has been overprinted and it's difficult to reconstruct what was there.'",
"The first dinosaur to have walked on Earth may have been found by scientists.",
"Nyasasaurus parringtoni would have been alive 10 to 15 million years before any previously known dinosaurs - and more than 150million years before the mighty Tyrannosaurus Rex.",
"The size of a Labrador and slight of build, Nyasasaurus had a five foot-long tail and likely walked upright on two legs.",
"With only a few ribs and arm bones to go on, the scientists can't be sure what the world's oldest dinosaur ate.",
"However, it is likely it had a similar diet to other early dinosaurs of small prey, insects and plants.",
"The remains do allow for its size to be estimated.",
"Nyasasaurus is believed to have been 6.5 to 10ft from nose to tail, with its tail accounting for half of that.Its slight build means it would have lived 'in the shadow' of other much larger reptiles alive at the time.",
"The patterns found by Professor Noffke and her colleagues are ridges which criss-cross the rocks like strands in a spider's web, hinting that primitive bacteria linked up in sprawling networks.",
"Like many such bacterial colonies which still exist today, they may have lived in the equivalent of microbial cities hosting different kinds of bacteria all communicating via chemical signals, the Washington Post reports.",
"It is thought the ancient microbes fed on sulphur, as many still do today.",
"The textures seen in the Australian rocks are similar to those already seen in 2.9billion-year-old rocks from South Africa which Professor Noffke and colleagues reported on in 2007.",
"However, old Australian rocks have deceived researchers in the past.",
"Rippling layers found in some from the Strelley Pool, also in Western Australia, were claimed in 1980 to be the work of bacteria, but subsequent research showed the patterns could be formed by natural non-organic processes.",
"In an effort to corroborate their most recent findings, Professor Noffke and her colleagues measured the carbon that made up the textured rocks.",
"They found the tell-tale signatures of 'organic' carbon-13 that usually comes from living beings.",
"'It’s always nice to have a number of different lines of evidence, and you definitely want to see organic carbon,' said Dr John Stolz, a geomicrobiologist at Duquesne University, Pittsburgh.",
"The discovery could now help inform further searches for life on Mars, where such remnants of life may be even better preserved thanks to a lack of geological processes shaking things up like on Earth.",
"Nasa's Curiosity rover is equipped with instruments able to detect similar fossils, Professor Noffke told U.S. News.",
"'Our structure is one of the structures the rover is looking for—if we've found sedimentary structures like that on Earth's most well-preserved rocks, could they be on rocks of similar ages on Mars?' she added."

"Just 12 hours before John Jonchuck allegedly threw his 5-year-old daughter to her death off a Florida bridge, his own lawyer called a state child abuse hotline warning that his client was suffering from mental delusions.",
"But according to documents released by child welfare officials Monday, the hotline operator failed to pass on the call to investigators because she didn't think the child was in danger.",
"One week earlier, another worried caller told the Department of Children and Families that Jonchuck's daughter Phoebe had been physically abused in the past.",
"That call, however, also failed to get to DCF investigators because the operator hung up before she got John Jonchuck's address.",
"Instead of calling back, she simply closed the case, according to the state's investigation.",
"Scroll down for video .",
"'Preventable tragedy': The Florida Department of Children and Families has released a report detailing the department's failing in the case of Phoebe Jonchuck (right), 5, who, was hurled off a bridge by her father, John (left) last month .",
"Tragic: Police say John Jonchuck pulled over on the Sunshine Skyway bridge in St Petersburg January 8, pulled Phoebe from the back seat and dropped her to her death .",
"Simple tribute: A memorial has been set up in honor of the late Phoebe Jonchuck, 5, on the south side of the Dick Misener Bridge near the north end toll booths of the Sunshine Skyway Bridge .",
"The lapses have cast the already troubled DCF in a harsh spotlight, prompting new Secretary Mike Carroll to change hotline protocol.",
"Going forward, if a caregiver seems to be experiencing a psychotic episode, a child protective investigator will be required to visit within four hours.",
"Police say Phoebe Jonchuck was likely alive when her father sped past a police officer January 8, stopped on the Sunshine Skyway bridge in St Petersburg, pulled the girl from the back seat and dropped her to her death.",
"He was arrested and accused of first-degree murder, but hasn't formally been charged as he is undergoing mental health evaluations.",
"Jonchuck's own divorce lawyer had warned authorities of his mental state January 7, telling the hotline operator that Jonchuck had driven to three different churches in his pajamas with Phoebe in tow and asked his attorney to translate a Bible in Swedish.",
"Could Phoebe have been saved?",
"A lawyer handling Jonchuck's divorce case called a state hotline a day before Phoebe's death to warn about his client's mental state, but the operator ignored the red flag because she did not think the 5-year-old (pictured left and right) was in any danger .",
"So small: The casket of Phoebe Jonchuck is carried out after memorial services at Lake Magdalene Methodist Church in Tampa last month .",
"Jonchuck was also expressing paranoid fears that Phoebe was not his biological daughter, his lawyer said.",
"'He's calling the office every five minutes and saying these religious things and saying the child might not be his, it just really concerns me,' the unidentified attorney told an operator, later adding, 'It's all craziness and it doesn't make any sense and he's out of his mind.'",
"But the report noted the relatively inexperienced operator said the caller seemed more worried about Jonchuck's mental state, not the child's safety and labeled the call as 'inadequate supervision' and did not turn it over to investigators.",
"The attorney even noted that DCF had an open investigation on the family, but the operator said she couldn't find the report and did not ask a supervisor, according to the state's investigation.",
"The missing report came from a caller who alleged family violence, inadequate supervision and substance misuse at the Jonchuck home.",
"'We are reminded yet again that every process within our system should be critically examined at every opportunity to ensure that the role it plays is carried out effectively,' Carroll said in the report.",
"Ignoring calls has been a problem in the past and the hotline has been undergone a multi-million dollar overhaul.",
"Red flag: Another worried caller told the Department of Children and Families a week before the bridge drama that Jonchuck's daughter Phoebe had been physically abused in the past .",
"In 2011, the hotline received multiple calls worrying about the safety of Nubia Barahona, a 10-year-old former foster child whose partially decomposing body was later found doused in toxic chemicals in the back of her adoptive father's pickup truck along a busy highway.",
"A hotline caller warned the Barahona twins were being tied by their hands and feet and locked in the bathroom for days, but DCF officials never contacted the police and the hotline operator didn't flag the call as an emergency.",
"The DCF investigator assigned to check on the children also didn't have the family's phone number.",
"Since then, DCF officials said they have collaborated with law enforcement to develop protocol for future emergencies.",
"Among the other problems uncovered in the investigation of Phoebe's death, Hillsborough County Sheriff's child protective investigators had 25 vacancies and were overwhelmed by the high number of new cases.",
"Help: Michelle Kerr is helped away from her daughter's funeral last month.",
"Phoebe Jonchuck was in the custody of her father when he threw his child to her death .",
"And although the area has a network of nearby mental health, substance abuse and domestic violence resources, investigators don't routinely seek expert advice before closing cases, using the organizations only for referrals.",
"Investigators also seemed more focused on whether Phoebe and her siblings' basic needs were being met, instead of addressing the histories of domestic violence, mental health, and substance abuse issues in the home, according to the report.",
"DCF investigators have struggled over the years to look at the big picture in several other high profile child abuse deaths.",
"A call in June of 2013 first brought child investigators to the Jonchuck home where they closed the case, agreeing that family violence threatened Phoebe.",
"Jonchuck was arrested as a result of the call after an altercation with Phoebe's mother.",
"He and Phoebe later moved out of the home, but Monday's report noted that no services or interventions were put in place."

"Meanwhile the price gap from Hampstead to Golders Green is a £260,000 fall, while Vauxhall to Stockwell comes with a drop of £280,000.",
"In addition, the 'demand' figures shown in the graphics are determined by the percentage of properties sold, reflecting the demand and stock in areas.",
"Russell Quirk, the founder of eMoov, which carried out the research, said savvy buyers should look at where new gaps could appear on the network.",
"As an example he cited the Northern line extension to Nine Elms and Battersea in south London, which is expected to be completed and open by 2020.",
"Dropping: House prices fall sharply between zones one and two, before levelling off from zone three - before rising again at zone eight .",
"Pricey: Holland Park (Central), Golders Green (Northern), Richmond (District) and Stanmore (Jubilee) are the most expensive stops per zone .",
"Mr Quirk said: ‘These locations and their surrounding areas will see a dramatic rise in house prices and demand as they open the new service.’ The cheapest three stations on the map are Dagenham East, Dagenham Heathway and Becontree - all towards the east end of the District line.",
"But while the average house price in Dagenham East is a mere £194,000, the most expensive station in London is Bond Street at £3,232,000.",

"HAMMERSMITH AND CITY: Many stations with the lowest house prices are towards the east of this line - including Barking and Upton Park .",
"CIRCLE: The average house price on this line is more than £1.5million - although it only operates inside zones one and two .",
"VICTORIA: The average house price drops £400,000 from King’s Cross to Highbury and Islington, and £500,000 from Stockwell to Brixton .",
"BAKERLOO: This line has two stations in the top ten most expensive - Piccadilly Circus (£2,196,650) and Oxford Circus (£2,051,713) Similarly priced are Piccadilly Circus at £2,197,000, Green Park at £2,191,000, South Kensington at £2,152,000 and Leicester Square at £2,135,000.",
"Official figures revealed last month that the average house in London costs £501,000 – which is almost double the UK average of £271,000.",
"Mr Quirk added: 'It is fascinating to see the gulf in demand between lines and the difference one stop can make to the value of a property.'",

"If you settle down to watch television this evening, you might want to think twice about what you say out loud.",
"Samsung has warned owners of its internet-connected ‘smart TV’ that anything they discuss while sitting near the device may be overheard.",
"The popular televisions are voice activated, so users can switch channels or ask for suggestions of what to watch simply by giving a verbal command.",
"The Voice Recognition feature has to be enabled by the user, and they agree to let it track their conversations when they accept the TV's terms and conditions.",
"Samsung said it sends voice commands, 'along with information about [the] device, including device identifiers' to a third-party service .",
"However, the technology which allows this to happen has a worrying side effect: it records everything else that goes on near the television.",
"A clause in the Korean firm’s privacy policy warns: ‘Please be aware that if your spoken words include personal or other sensitive information, that information will be among the data captured and transmitted to a third party.’ That means it could, for example, record a family argument going on in the living room.",
"Companies that use the televisions in boardrooms risk sharing confidential information such as employees’ salaries or business strategies.",
"Privacy campaigners drew comparisons between the TVs and ‘Big Brother’ – the authoritarian state which watches people’s every move in 1984, the dystopian novel by George Orwell.",
"Renate Samson, of Big Brother Watch, a campaign group named after this very notion, said: ‘This thing is going to be in your house, listening in on you.",
"‘Samsung say they are providing you with a service, but really the only service you need from a television is to watch programmes.’ More than half of smart TVs sold in Britain are made by Samsung.",
"The company says its televisions constantly listen out for simple commands to switch on or change channel, which are interpreted by the machine itself.",
"However, it can only process more complicated requests by recording users’ speech and sending it to a third-party company called Nuance, in the US.",
"That firm then sends the data to a computer server, which translates it into text and sends a response.",
"To give these complex commands, viewers must press a button on the remote control as they speak, and during that time, anything within ‘earshot’ will be collected.",
"The data is encrypted, but can be listened to by authorised Nuance staff.",
"Last year, IT consultant Jason Huntley realised his LG smart TV was tracking his family’s viewing habits and even knew his children’s names because he had watched a family video on his set.",
"An LG set is pictured .",
"SMART TVs are television sets that link to the internet, allowing viewers to browse the web or watch programmes on demand, for example on BBC iPlayer .",
"Most are voice activated, so users can change channels without the remote control .",
"The TVs do this by constantly listening to the discussions around them, ‘filtering’ for simple key words, such as ‘turn on’ When they hear these predefined commands, they carry out the instructions .",
"To give a more complex command – such as a request to recommend a good programme – users must hold down a button as they speak .",
"Most smart TVs then record the user’s speech, and send it via the internet to a powerful computer, which processes it and sends a response back to the TV set .",
"This has to be done remotely because it takes far more computing power than there is in an affordable home TV .",
"141 million smart TVs will be sold worldwide this year, and more than half of TVs sold are now ‘smart’ models .",
"The technology giant remained tight-lipped about whether it then keeps users’ data, only saying that it does not sell information on, and that it operates within privacy laws, which vary by country.",
"Professor Peter Sommer, a digital forensics expert who has lectured at the London School of Economics, said there was ‘no reason’ Samsung would not be storing up data.",
"‘The fear is they could be building up a pattern of your preferences, or learning your voice,’ he said.",
"Users can stop Samsung from recording their conversations by turning voice recognition off.",
"However, even then, the firm collects certain information.",
"Its privacy policy says that, if the feature is turned off: ‘While Samsung will not collect your spoken word, Samsung may still collect associated texts and other usage data so that we can evaluate the performance of the feature and improve it.’ Renate Samson slammed Samsung for forcing people to ‘opt out’ of recordings, rather than giving them the option to opt in.",
"‘It is the wrong way to go about it, and even if you do opt out, you can’t guarantee [your privacy],’ she said."

"Crossrail-led research has identified the names and backgrounds of more than 5,000 people buried at the old Bedlam cemetery site at Liverpool Street in London.",
"Names include Sir Ambrose Nicholas, who was lord mayor of London in 1575, and Dr John Lamb (also known as Lam or Lambe), an astrologer and advisor to the First Duke of Buckingham.",
"Their skeletons are among those of tortured former patients of Bethlem Royal Hospital, thought to have been the world's first mental asylum.",

"Archaeologists at the burial site on Liverpool Street, London, work to excavate a centuries-old skeleton .",
"Intense archival research has identified the names of more than 5,000 people buried at the Bedlam site in London in the 16th and 17th centuries .",
"Workers divide the Bedlam site into sections in order to carefully excavate the skeleton of a person buried at the cemetery .",
"The site is found beneath Liverpool Street station in the city of London, with thousands of skeletons lying undisturbed beneath it for centuries .",
"Lamb was said to have been stoned to death by an angry mob outside a theatre in 1628 following allegations of rape and black magic.",
"Others identified in the research, carried out by 16 invited volunteers and covering burials in the 16th and 17th centuries, include victims of riots by 'Fanatiques', noted in the diaries of Samuel Pepys in January 1661.",
"Also buried in the area was soldier Robert Lockyer, an activist in England's first democratic political movement known as the Levellers, The Independent reported.",
"Executed by firing squad in 1649, he became a martyr for the fledgling left-wing group after he refused parliamentarian military bosses' orders that he be sent away from the capital in a bid to mitigate his dissent.",
"More than 4,000 people were reported to have attended his funeral at Bedlam, wearing green ribbons to show their allegiance to the Levellers.",
"Crossrail workers recently discovered the gravestone of Mary Godfree, who died in 1665 as a result of the Great Plague .",
"The Crossrail team will use the information when work to excavate 3,000 skeletons from the Bedlam site starts next month.",
"But with mental patients showing no physical symptoms of illness, determining which of the remains belonged to those treated at the hospital will be near impossible.",
"The hospital is considered the first asylum in Britain.",
"It has been moved several times since and is now found in Bromley.",
"Bedlam burial ground was established in 1569 to help parishes cope with overcrowding during outbreaks of plague and other epidemics.",
"Crossrail workers recently discovered the gravestone of Mary Godfree, who died in September 1665 as a result of the Great Plague which peaked that year.",
"Jay Carver, lead archaeologist at Crossrail, said: 'This research is a window into one of the most turbulent periods of London's past.",
"'These people lived through civil wars, the Restoration, Shakespeare's plays, the birth of modern industry, plague and the Great Fire.",
"'It is a real privilege to be able to use Europe's largest construction project to uncover more knowledge about this fascinating period of history.",
"'Our heartfelt thanks go to the volunteer researchers, who have contributed immensely to Crossrail's legacy.'",
"The archaeological excavations at Liverpool Street are being undertaken by Museum of London Archaeology on behalf of Crossrail.",
"Scientific analysis of up to 3,000 skeletons will provide new insights into the lives and deaths of early modern Londoners.",
"The upcoming dig is also expected to uncover medieval and Roman artefacts, and help piece together centuries of history.",
"After excavation, the skeletons will be reburied on consecrated ground.",
"To date, Crossrail, which will be fully opened in 2019, has found more than 10,000 artefacts from London's long history across over 40 construction sites.",
"Thousands of Londoners were buried at the site, including Bedlam patients among the first to be treated for psychiatric illness in the 14th century .",
"Researchers will not be able to distinguish between the skeletons of former Bedlam patients and others, with mental illnesses bearing no bodily symptoms .",
"Thousands of people have been buried at the site over hundreds of years.",
"The Royal Bedlam Hospital now operates in Bromley and is considered a leading psychiatric facility .",
"Bedlam: The scene inside the hospital as depicted by William Hogarth in The Rake's Progress .",
"The Bethlem Royal Hospital was the first dedicated psychiatric institution in Europe, having been founded as a priory in 1247 and converted into a hospital in the early 14th century.",
"It was founded by Goffredo de Prefetti, who had been elected Bishop of Bethlehem, and was originally located just outside the London city wall, on the site of what is now Liverpool Street station.",
"Due to the hospital's reputation as the principle treatment centre for the insane, a bastardised version of its name - 'Bedlam' - came to signify madness and chaos more generally.",
"Although it is sometimes thought to have treated its patients cruelly, most were free to walk around the grounds, and conditions were not much worse than the average home of the period.",
"In 1674, the hospital's governors decided that the institution should move a few hundred metres to the west to Moorfields, with the area's open space thought to be healthier than its original premises.",
"Bethlem moved against in 1815, to St George's Fields in Southwark, which is now the site of the Imperial War Museum.",
"A final move came in 1930 when the hospital relocated to the suburb of Bromley - it is now run by the NHS and is considered to be a leading psychiatric hospital."

"The Royal Bank of Scotland receives up to 400 complaints a day from customers who have been duped into costly subscriptions after applying for a ‘free trial’ for beauty and nutrition products.",

"Now Ross McEwan, chief executive of RBS, which includes Natwest, has urged regulators to take action after noticing firms ‘taking advantage of consumers’.",

"He travelled the country during the independence referendum, proudly defending the Union while standing on upturned Irn-Bru crates.",
"But Jim Murphy's fondness for Scotland's 'other' national drink means that taxpayers have been forced to fund his habit – handing over the princely sum of £1.30.",
"Parliament bosses have uncovered two claims from the Scottish Labour leader in his Westminster expenses following a Freedom of Information request, it emerged today.",
"Labour leader in Scotland Jim Murphy has claimed Irn Bru on expenses .",
"Under existing rules, MPs – who earn £67,000-a-year - are allowed to claim for non-alcoholic drinks during overnight stays.",
"Mr Murphy, who does not drink alcohol, is a huge fan of Irn-Bru and purposely chose to tour the country with the branded crates as he visited 100 towns and cities in 100 days before the referendum.",
"He endured heckling from Yes voters and was hit with eggs while speaking in Kirkcaldy, Fife, sparking claims that independence campaigners were 'orchestrating a campaign of intimidation'.",
"His expenses claims were both ridiculed and criticised yesterday.",
"A spokesman for pressure group The TaxPayers' Alliance said: 'This is ludicrous and will leave taxpayers fizzing with rage.",
"Expenses are supposed to be to help MPs do their job, not for caffeine-heavy refreshments or PR stunts.'",
"An SNP spokesman said: 'Labour's bottle has crashed and this is a further embarrassment for Jim Murphy.",
"Unlike Scotland's favourite national soft drink – he is neither 'original' nor 'best'.'",
"Nationalist politicians took to Twitter to mock the Labour leader, with Europe Minister Humza Yousaf posting a picture of himself drinking Irn-Bru with the caption: 'Pleased to say I always buy my own Bru.'",
"MSP Mark McDonald joked: 'I cannot believe that story about Jim Murphy claiming for Irn-Bru.",
"I had no idea he even liked the stuff.",
"There were no clues to this.' A Scottish Labour Party spokesman said: 'As most people know, Mr Murphy drinks bucket loads of Irn-Bru.",
"Over the years it's thought that he has single-handedly kept the House of Commons Irn-Bru supplier in business.",
"He has paid for it himself except for these two cans totalling £1.30.'",
"Mr Murphy was involved in heated confrontations with independence supporters on his 100 towns in 100 days tour of the country, where he spoke from an Irn Bru crate .",
"The Freedom of Information request was spotted by the team at anti-establishment blog Guido Fawkes.",
"(PLS KEEP) In response to the unknown individual who requested the information, the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority wrote: 'Under the MPs' scheme of business costs and expenses, MPs may claim for the cost of purchasing food and non-alcoholic drinks where they have necessarily stayed overnight neither in the London area nor their constituency.",
"This is limited to £25 for each night.",
"'MPs may also claim reimbursement of the costs of an evening meal (excluding alcoholic drinks), when they are required to be at the House of Commons because the House is sitting beyond 7.30pm.",
"This is limited to £15 for each night.",
"Irn Bru has been described as Scotland's 'other' national drink .",
"'In processing your request, we have searched through all claims made by Jim Murphy MP for food and drink for any which identify Irn Bru.",
"We have identified two such claims.",
"Both claims were made before April 30, 2014, and amount to £1.30.'",
"A spokesman for Irn-Bru makers A.G. Barr declined to comment.",
"The revelation comes just weeks after it emerged that SNP MSP Richard Lyle charged taxpayers for his £1.80 bill in an Edinburgh fish and chips shop.",
"Originally, only the price-tag was released by parliament bosses, sparking a hilarious guessing game on social media about what he bought for the paltry sum.",
"Now, a Freedom of Information request by the Scottish Daily Mail has finally revealed what Mr Lyle purchased at the Royal Mile chippy.",
"An order for 'small chips' was made at 10.43pm in April 2013, the receipt shows, which the MSP - who earns nearly £59,000-a-year – later took the time to formally submit to Holyrood authorities, where it was processed by taxpayer-funded staff.",
"Expenses documents show that Mr Lyle, a Central Scotland MSP, is fond of his takeaway dinners.",
"As well as claiming for chips, he clawed back a £5.40 bill from the Happiness Chinese restaurant on four occasions in 2013-14.",
"And seven other receipts for an evening meal were submitted from an unknown restaurant or takeaway, each priced just £4.20.",
"An SNP spokesman said: 'Members are permitted to claim some money towards meals on evenings when parliamentary duties mean they must stay in Edinburgh.",
"'The claim of £1.80 is in line with the Scottish Parliament allowances system, which has already been reformed and has always been more stringent and transparent than its Westminster counterpart.",
"By definition, Mr Lyle's claim for an evening meal was as cheap as chips.'"

"A doctor who was known as 'an octopus' has been jailed for groping colleagues at the hospital where he worked as an anaesthetist.",
"Dr Niaz Ahmed viewed women's genitals as they recovered from surgery and gave saucy underwear to a stunned young colleague, a court heard.",
"The 55-year-old was known as 'always the octopus, hands all over the place' by nurses and staff who he made repeated lewd comments to at South Tyneside Hospital in Tyne and Wear.",
"Dr Niaz Ahmed, pictured, was jailed for groping staff at the hospital where he worked as an anaesthetist .",
"Newcastle Crown Court heard the 'highly skilled' doctor, who boasted he was 'looking for women the day after he got married' was repeatedly warned by hospital bosses to tone down his behaviour.",
"A jury convicted him of two indecent assault charges on his co-workers, during incidents more than a decade ago.",
"Judge Simon Hickey jailed Ahmed, of Broadlands, Cleadon, for 18 months and said he must sign the sex offender register for ten years.",
"The judge said Ahmed had shown 'no remorse' for his behaviour, which he tried to pass off as 'social clumsiness'.",
"The 55-year-old was known as 'always the octopus, hands all over the place' by nurses .",
"Judge Hickey told him: 'These women expected, and could expect, to be treated not only with respect and courtesy but as professionals in their own right.",
"'You were expected not to touch them in any way, particularly a sexual way.",
"'The evidence in the case revealed your inappropriate behaviour towards women in general in the hospital.",
"'The nurses spoke in terms of you leaving your post as an anaesthetist and viewing the private, genital areas of women when they were unconscious.",
"'Others speak of you giving inappropriate underwear to one young nurse, extremely embarrassing her.",
"Others speak of suggestive behaviour and comments.",
"'The evidence was overwhelming in terms of what you were doing and the boundaries you were stepping over.",
"'You used your authority over those two victims to commit these offences.",
"'This was not social clumsiness, this was a man who knew he was stepping over a clear line.'",
"Ahmed, who was suspended from medical practice at a tribunal earlier this year for groping a nurse who was treating him after an accident in 2010, was cleared of three similar charges.",
"The General Medical Council ruled Ahmed, who no longer works at the hospital, could continue to practice, under strict conditions, after the recent convictions.",
"Prosecutor Michael Hodson told the court during the trial that Ahmed had not committed 'grave' sex crimes and caused no serious physical injury to his victims.",
"But he added: 'Imagine what it was like going to work with a sex pest, always the octopus, hands all over the place, underlined by innuendo.'",
"Ahmed made lewd comments to nurses and staff while working at South Tyneside District Hospital, pictured .",
"Mr Hodson said one victim was targeted in the scrub room at the hospital, where Ahmed squeezed her bottom and asked her: 'Do you fancy it?'",
"Another had her breasts prodded by the medic while she was at work and said he had told her 'put them away'.",
"Ahmed denied the charges against him and claimed his behaviour was 'jokes and banter'.",
"Mr Hodson added: 'As all sex pests may well do to get away with their nuisance behaviour, they pass it off as banter, as he did.'",
"The court heard that during a meeting with hospital bosses in 2000, Ahmed accepted it was inappropriate to touch nurses and said any offence caused by him was entirely innocent and accidental.",
"During a later meeting with management, he said his behaviour continued to be innocent and in fitting with the 'culture' of the hospital.",
"Ahmed had claimed he was the victim of a 'witch hunt' in 2012 after he was cleared of sexually assaulting two teenage girls at a fireworks display in South Shields in 2011.",
"The youngsters claimed Ahmed had groped them after boasting about the size of his manhood and complaining about his sex life with his wife.",
"Tom Moran, defending, said Ahmed has had an offer of work out of the area, adding: 'He is highly regarded for his professional abilities.'",
"Newcastle Crown Court, pictured, heard Ahmed viewed women's genitals as they recovered from surgery and gave saucy underwear to a stunned young colleague ."
