Bath survive a dramatic late surge from Worcester to come away with a first win in seven games in all competitions at Sixways.
Tom Homer's penalty on top of a Jonathan Evans converted try turned around the half-time deficit, and marked a much improved second-half effort.
Worcester were unfortunate in that second period, watching Ryan Mills and Tom Heathcote both push kicks wide that would have kept them ahead.
However they failed to match their first-half efforts, which saw tries from Cooper Vuna and Donncha O'Callaghan give them a comfortable advantage at the break, and their own winless streak continues.
Worcester push... Bath respond... ball comes out on the Worcester side.
Warriors forced back but they're still deep in the 22.
Clock is already in the red! Drop goal attempt blocked!
You can feel the tension. Palpable.
Worcester get a late penalty in their own half with a minute to go... it's sent to touch but is then knocked on by Bath in goal.
Warriors scrum five metres out!
Northampton's victory this afternoon never looked in doubt and they marked the opening of their new Barwell Stand in style.
Lee Dickson ignited the side from scrum-half with a pacy performance however it was the work of the big men up front that secured the result.
Tom Coventry has plenty to ponder on as Irish remain at the bottom of the table after Newcastle's victory last night. It doesn't get any easier for the Exiles as they have the Exeter Chiefs arriving at the Madjeski next weekend.
Worcester will rue these opportunities under pressure.
Inside the last four minutes we go on the clock.
Gloucester record back-to-back Premiership wins for the first time this season.
James Hook contributed 18 points in the first half and Steve McColl went over late to add some polish to a dominant display by the Cherry and Whites against a weakened Quins side, with Chris Robshaw and Mike Brown among five England internationals set to line-up against Italy in the Six Nations in Rome on Sunday.
Northampton headed into the final minutes of this match knowing that it was won, however Jim Mallinder won't be happy with their discipline.
JJ Hanrahan and Jamie Gibson both received yellow cards and Irish's pack used the extra men to rumble over and give them a consolation score through David Paice.
Agonising miss by Ryan Mills from a penalty goal attempt means Worcester are unable to nudge back in front.
The groans around Sixways evidence of the anxiety.
Billy Twelvetrees leading the way in defence with an immense tacking display, and in a flash there is a turn over, the ball goes through a number of hands and Steve McColl slides over.
We're inside the last 10 minutes and it's fair to say that the game has lost a touch of its quality. London Irish are kicking themselves with their own errors and aren't able to make any possession count. While, with a 35-point buffer, Northampton know that they've got this one in the bag!
The scoreboard has just about tipped in favour of the visitors, perhaps deserved too after a much-improved second-half showing so far.
Scrum penalty went the way of Mike Ford's side and Tom Homer bisected the posts from the tee to edge the Blue, Black and Whites ahead.
Little over 10 minutes remaining and it is on a knife-edge between these out-of-form foes.
Gloucester's focus is tested as they need to work hard in defence for a moment.
Tim Visser scoots away down the left for Harlequins, but a fine Callum Braley tackle and quick thinking by Sione Kalamafoni to kill the ball keeps Quins out.
BOOOOOOM! Worcester's Chris Pennell makes a huge hit on Tom Homer to stop his opposite number from scampering over the stripe - all from a clever box-kick by Jonathan Evans down the left.
Earlier Tom Heathcote missed a penalty attempt to keep the nerves jangling at Sixways.
Still one point in it, and now we're seeing a few changes being made as the sides begin to tire.
The former leader of the Bosnian Serbs is expected to be held at a nearby detention centre and then appear at the U.N. war crimes tribunal soon afterwards.
War crimes suspect Radovan Karadzic arrived in the Netherlands on Wednesday to face trial at The Hague on charges of genocide for his actions in the 1992-95 Bosnia war.
The plane carrying Karadzic landed at Rotterdam airport.
Karadzic faces two charges of genocide for the 43-month siege of Sarajevo and the 1995 massacre of some 8,000 Muslims at Srebrenica, the worst atrocity in Europe since World War Two.
Arrested last week after 11 years on the run, Karadzic was most recently living under an assumed name as a bearded, long-haired alternative healer.
Earlier in Belgrade, he was escorted to the airport by masked officials from the Serbian secret service. A convoy of black jeeps took him from prison to the capital's airport.
On Tuesday, some 10,000 hardline nationalists, many brought by bus from rural nationalist strongholds, showed their support for him in downtown Belgrade, chanting his name and holding up giant banners with his picture.
Violence broke out when several dozen youths linked to hooligan groups threw flares, stones and garbage cans at riot police. Some 45 people, most of them policemen, were wounded.
Sending him to The Hague is expected by the government to defuse tension and stop further protests, but also to unlock EU trade benefits.
Karadzic's legal team had tried to delay his extradition by launching a cumbersome appeal procedure that threatened to drag on for several more days. But even they admitted they could only postpone, not stop his transfer.
Relatives have said Karadzic is preparing for his defence. He has had two suits delivered for his court appearance, one light, one dark.
BMW staff working at Mini and Rolls-Royce factories in the UK are to vote on striking over pension changes.
Britain’s largest union Unite said on Friday that it would ballot 4,500 members who make the cars after months of rows had put unions and management on a collision course at BMW’s plants in Sussex.
Unite said the carmaker had refused to lift its threat to close the final salary pension scheme by the end of May, when it plans to move to the less generous defined-contribution plans.
The union had laid out its opposition to the plans at an earlier meeting on February 20 at BMW’s Cowley plant, saying some car workers could lose as much as £160,000 over the course of their retirement.
Everybody’s talking about the Pentagon’s secret UFO program. But mysterious sky sightings are better explained by optical illusions — like “green flashes,” “inversion,” and “ghost” mirages — than alien beings, experts say.
Our new alien overlords aren’t likely to be landing anytime soon, sad to say, despite news reports of the Pentagon’s secret UFO program.
A Department of Defense “Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program,” which investigated sightings of mystery aircraft moving in impossible ways, thrilled UFO fans in reports this week in both the New York Times and Politico Magazine. Accompanied by released videos of military pilots expressing bafflement at arti...
“Green flashes,” “inversion,” and “ghost” mirages have bedeviled fliers for decades. These illusions are created by different layers of the air acting like lenses. An optical effects archive maintained by astronomer Andrew Young of San Diego State University details the physics of such observations as seen by the eye, ...
Solar mirage and green flash.
Not all of the effects reported by news stories can be explained by mirages, optics expert Joseph Shaw of Montana State University told BuzzFeed News. “Reports of objects accelerating in different directions seen by pilots sounds different,” as well as claims of fallen “alloys” collected by the Pentagon. But that doesn...
Defense Department investigations into unexplained aerial phenomena date at least to the start of the Cold War, since the 1947 “Roswell Incident” crash of a secret spy balloon, Project Mogul, in the New Mexico desert.
One other source of skepticism about the Pentagon’s UFO program is that it originated in the patronage of former Sen. Harry Reid of Nevada, and was contracted to Bigelow Aerospace, owned by an avowed believer in UFOs, Robert Bigelow. It reappeared in the news reports as a private effort headed by its former program dir...
A Defense Department spokesperson, Laura Ochoa, confirmed to BuzzFeed News that it cancelled the $22 million program in 2012. “It was determined that there were other, higher priority issues that merited funding and it was in the best interest of the DoD to make a change," she said.
But that doesn’t mean the government’s search for aliens has stopped forever, she added: "The DoD takes seriously all threats and potential threats to our people, our assets, and our mission and takes action whenever credible information is developed."

Former Congressman and noted crackpot Allen West had a disturbing encounter at a Dallas Walmart Monday, the surest sign yet that Sharia law is creeping across this great nation and into Allen West’s personal space. A cashier with what he thought was a Muslim-sounding name wouldn’t sell him alcohol. As it turns out, the...
I pointed the sign out to Aubrey and her response was a simple question, how is it that this Muslim employee could refuse service to customers based on his religious beliefs, but Christians are being forced to participate in specific events contrary to their religious beliefs?
EDITOR’S UPDATE: We spoke to the Walmart store, and apparently employees under 21 years old are prohibited from selling cigarettes and alcohol. However, that isn’t to say Walmart isn’t selectively caving to Muslim demands, such as this case regarding Halal meat in Ohio.
The headline on the piece is now “More ominous signs of Christian persecution,” which is definitely what that was.
FIFA’s disciplinary committee has banned Worawi Makudi, former president of the Football Association of Thailand and a former member of the FIFA Executive Committee, for three months for failing to comply with an earlier suspension, FIFA said on Monday (February 22).
The global soccer body’s ethics committee in October had banned Makudi from all football activities for 90 days.
“The disciplinary committee found that Mr Makudi was still involved in FAT affairs during this period…and has therefore decided to ban him from taking part in any kind of football-related activity at national and international level for a period of three months,” a FIFA statement on Monday said.
It also fined him 3,000 Swiss francs ($3,015), while serving him with a warning too.
Despite the economy’s 5.6 percent growth surge in the fourth quarter, many experts have doubts that the rebound is sustainable.
New York Times columnist Floyd Norris cites several reasons for the pessimism.
