Wigan moved level on points with Super League leaders Warrington by coming from behind to beat Castleford.
|
[
"Denny Solomona crossed for Castleford, but Wigan led at half-time against the run of play through Lewis Tierney's try and Matty Smith's penalty kick.\nGrant Millington's try put the visitors back in front, before John Bateman went over to restore Wigan's two-point lead.\nNick Gregson got his first senior try and Bateman crossed again late on as Warriors climbed to third in the table.\nHaving suffered their heaviest defeat in Super League since 2005 with a 62-0 loss to Wakefield in their previous fixture, Wigan started slowly but were good value for their win after the break.\nThe hosts failed to take advantage when Luke Gale was sent to the sin-bin for dissent with the scores level in the first half, but Bateman's return to the side after two games out sparked the comeback.\nShaun Wane's team also welcomed back Dom Crosby, who made his first Super League appearance of the season having recovered from a hip injury.\nSolomona moved clear as Super League's leading try-scorer with his 13th of the season, but Tigers were frustrated by improved Wigan defence in the second period as they suffered their fourth defeat in a row at the DW Stadium.\nWigan coach Shaun Wane:\n\"I don't want to keep going on about it. But, if you knew what we had gone through this week, there's so much toughness showed in that game against a really good Cas team.\n\"The admiration I have got for my players, the desire to grind out the win with the circumstances that nobody knows about is unbelievable.\n\"There were quite a few good performances, they are a good team and are well coached who know how to defend.\n\"We're not the biggest team, but I thought the way we defended was outstanding.\"\nCastleford coach Daryl Powell:\n\"That last try gave the score a bit of an easier look than it was. It was tight all the way through.\n\"We lacked a little bit of quality in our play. I thought we defended awesome, they came at us in the second half with a game plan that put us under pressure.\n\"They made minimal errors and kicked well and we couldn't find a spark to get us out of yardage and into good field position.\n\"They deserved to win the game, they had more ball than us in decent field position and we had to work really hard to keep them out and that drained our energy reserves.\"\nWigan: Sarginson; Tierney, Bateman, Gildart, Charnley; Gregson, Smith; Mossop, Powell, Clubb, Tomkins, Isa, Sutton.\nReplacements: Crosby, Tautai, Burke, Bretherton.\nCastleford: Hampshire; Monaghan, Minikin, Webster, Solomona; Holmes, Gale; Lynch, Milner, Jewitt, Holmes, McMeeken, Massey.\nReplacements: McShane, Millington, Maher, Cook.\nReferee: Phil Bentham."

Plans for a new £91m entertainment arena being built in Bristol will not include an "expensive" dedicated car park, the council has said.
|
[
"Two planning applications for the Bristol Arena, a 12,000-seat venue set to open in 2017 near Temple Meads, are to be submitted next month.\nPeople living nearby raised concerns about parking but the council said city centre car parks had \"spare capacity, within a 20 minute walk of the arena\".\nA consultation closes on 13 October.\nPaul Breedon lives in nearby Totterdown and runs community magazine South Bristol Voice.\nHe said he was not against the arena, but when he had asked local people about their concerns, they replied \"parking, parking, parking\".\n\"Some of the closest places you will be able to park on the street are in Totterdown and the worry is that there's no plan at the moment,\" Mr Breedon said.\nPeter Mann, of Bristol City Council, said: \"Building a car park next to the arena will send all the wrong messages about the sustainability of it.\n\"So using public transport, cycling and walking and investing in that side of it, rather than building an expensive car park.\"\nMayor George Ferguson said parking for disabled people and operators would be provided but visitors would be \"encouraged to travel to the venue sustainably\".\nHe said: \"Of course, I absolutely respect that Totterdown have got parking pressure and I've had a lot of people from Totterdown already, because of commuter parking, saying we should have a residents' parking scheme, and we might do that.\n\"This is for the end of 2017, early 2018, by which time we'll have the Metrobus and have made arrangements with Great Western for additional trains for major events.\n\"This is not a parking story, it's a story about fantastic regeneration for Bristol.\""

[
"The delay was revealed by Mayor Marvin Rees in the annual state of the city speech on Thursday evening.\nThe 12,000-seat venue near Temple Meads was originally due to have been finished by late 2017. A delay until 2018 was announced last year.\nMr Rees said he \"intended to deliver\" the £92.5m arena by 2019, but warned against spiralling costs.\nDuring his annual state of the city speech Mr Rees also said discussions had begun to bring back powerboat racing to the city docks, and he announced plans for a new fleet of buses for the city."

Royal Troon Golf Club is consulting members over whether to end its men-only membership policy.
|
[
"The Ayrshire club, which is hosting this year's Open, shares its facilities with Ladies' Golf Club Troon but both have separate clubhouses.\nTroon captain Martin Cheyne said the club had written to its 800 members to \"understand their views and feelings on the issue\".\nRoyal Troon and Muirfield are the only two Open hosts to still exclude women.\nLast month, golf's governing body the R&A said the issue was \"a matter for the club\" to decide on.\nTroon was formed in 1878 and Cheyne added: \"We care very much for the reputation of Royal Troon Golf Club and it is important that the club, much like the wider game, reflects the modern society in which we exist.\"\nGolf will feature at the Olympics in Rio this summer after a 112-year absence and the sport's oldest institutions have taken steps to modernise since its return to the Games was confirmed.\nThe Royal and Ancient Golf Club at St Andrews opened its membership to women in 2014 for the first time in 260 years, while Royal St George's in Kent lifted its ban on women last year."
] |
[
"Members at the privately-owned club voted 80.2% in favour of updating their membership policy.\nIt followed a decision by golf's ruling body, the R&A, to remove Muirfield as a host venue for the Open Championship after it failed to change in 2016.\nR&A chief executive Martin Slumbers said the club would now be reinstated as an Open venue.\n\"It is extremely important for us in staging one of the world's great sporting events that women can become members at all our host clubs.\n\"Muirfield is a truly outstanding Open venue and we very much look forward to taking the championship there in future,\" he said.\nThe Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers, which owns and runs Muirfield, had recommended its members update their rules.\nIt followed consternation from many quarters at the result of the 2016 vote that failed to back female members.\nAt the time, Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon called for the decision \"simply indefensible\".\nFollowing the latest vote, she tweeted: \"Well done, Muirfield - decision to admit women members emphatic & the right one. Look forward to seeing you host the Open again in future.\"\nUK Sports Minister Tracey Crouch added her voice to those congratulating the club, but added: \"The decision has been a long time coming and it was right that the R&A made clear to Muirfield that the Open Championship would only be hosted at clubs that allow women members.\n\"Golf has the potential to attract a more diverse audience to the game and this decision sends out an important message.\n\"It is vital that clubs and sports organisations play their part in promoting equality.\"\nMuirfield - which was founded in 1744 - had required two-thirds of its eligible voters to back admitting women.\nThe postal ballot of members returned 498 votes in favour of change, with 123 votes (19.8%) against.\nA total of 621 votes were counted, a 92.7% turnout.\nClub captain Henry Fairweather welcomed the result: \"This is a significant decision for a club which was founded in 1744 and retains many of the values and aspirations of its founding members.\n\"We look forward to welcoming women as members who will enjoy, and benefit from, the great traditions and friendly spirit of this remarkable club.\"\nMuirfield has staged the Open 16 times and last hosted the event in 2013.\nWhile the change to admit women members takes affect immediately, the club admits it is likely to be at least two years before the first woman successfully negotiates its lengthy joining process.\nDespite previously not being able to become members of Muirfield, women had been able to play on the links course and visit the clubhouse as guests and visitors."

A baby hatch in southern China has been forced to suspend work after hundreds of infants were abandoned, overwhelming the centre, its director says.
|
[
"More than 260 children had been left at the welfare home in Guangzhou since 28 January, director Xu Jiu added.\nStaff will continue caring for babies already at the welfare home, all of whom suffer from illnesses, Mr Xu said.\nChina introduced the centres so parents could abandon infants safely rather than leaving them in the streets.\nSupporters say the baby hatches save lives, but critics say they encourage parents to abandon their children.\nMr Xu announced the suspension on Sunday, saying that 262 babies had been left at the centre since the scheme began in January.\n\"I hope everyone understands the difficulties the welfare centre faces,\" Mr Xu told Xinhua news agency.\n\"We are temporarily closing the centre [to new babies] so that we can properly care for the infants already at the centre.\"\nThe centre, which also cares for orphans, has 1,000 beds.\nHowever, it currently houses 1,121 babies and young people, with another 1,274 in the care of foster families, Guangzhou's Municipal Civil Affairs Bureau said.\nAll the abandoned infants had illnesses, such as cerebral palsy, Down's syndrome and congenital heart disease, the bureau added.\nIt is thought that many parents abandon ill babies because they fear they cannot afford the medical care required.\nAbandoning children is illegal in China. However, authorities believe that the hatches give the infants a better chance of survival than if they were left in the street.\nA total of 25 baby hatches have been established in 10 provincial regions in China, Xinhua reports.\nUnder China's strict population control policies, most couples have only been allowed to have one child and there is a strong preference for healthy baby boys.\nIn December, China's top legislature formally adopted a resolution easing the one-child policy, allowing couples to have two children if either parent is an only child.\nProvinces are now determining when to relax their restrictions at a local level, with some acting already."

"Aged between five and 13, they appeared to have drunk a bottle of pesticide, officials say. Police have not ruled out suicide.\nThe parents of the three girls and a boy had reportedly left the village, near Bijie city, in search of work.\nThe area is one of the poorest in the country and has seen previous deaths of abandoned children.\nChinese state media report that the mother of the four siblings left three years ago, followed by their father in March.\nThe children had reportedly dropped out of school a month ago, according to the Xinhua news agency. It added that their only food was corn and preserved meat.\nThe mass urban migration of Chinese parents looking for work has led to millions of children being left behind in villages; many of them are cared for by grandparents.\nCorrespondents say that such children can be highly vulnerable.\nThree years ago there was a national outcry after five abandoned children died in Bijie.\nThe children had suffocated inside a rubbish bin where they were sheltering, after apparently lighting a fire to keep warm.\nChinese officials have said that at least 80 million people live below the poverty line, surviving on less than $1 (£0.65) a day."

El Salvador's electoral court has confirmed the victory of former left-wing rebel Salvador Sanchez Ceren in a tight presidential run-off election.
|
[
"It said Mr Sanchez Ceren won 50.11% of the votes in the 9 March poll, defeating conservative candidate Norman Quijano, who polled 49.89%.\nMr Quijano had challenged the result, alleging fraud.\nBut the court's decision makes Mr Sanchez Ceren the country's first ex-rebel to serve as president.\nOn Sunday, the court said that there was not enough evidence to back Mr Quijano's claim.\n\"Based on the results, Salvador Sanchez Ceren and Oscar Samuel Ortiz are declared president and vice-president elect respectively, for the period from 1 June 2014 to 1 June 2019,\" court president Eugenio Chicas was quoted as saying by Reuters.\nThe country's outgoing President Mauricio Funes said he would meet Mr Sanchez Ceren later on Monday to begin the handover process.\nMr Sanchez Ceren became vice-president of El Salvador in 2009, while Mr Quijano was the mayor of the capital, San Salvador."

"President Ricardo Martinelli is not allowed to stand for re-election this time round, but his wife, Marta Linares de Martinelli, is running for the vice-presidency, leading to suggestions that Mr Martinelli is keen to run affairs from behind the scenes.\nWho is Marta Linares?\nShe is a political novice and the running mate of Jose Domingo Arias, the candidate of the governing Democratic Change party.\nShortly after it was announced that she was running for vice-president, she stepped down from the office of first lady to work full time on Mr Arias's campaign.\nHer dual role as candidate and president's wife had attracted criticism both from the opposition and the media.\nBorn in 1956, Marta Linares married Mr Martinelli in 1978. She worked as an insurance broker from 1980 until 2009, when she became first lady.\nWhy is her candidacy controversial?\nCritics say her candidacy is a thinly veiled attempt by Mr Martinelli to keep his grip on power after a five-year presidency marked by strong economic growth but also by mounting allegations of corruption.\nShe says she is a strong candidate in her own right and her husband has stressed he has no intention of holding on to power.\nOpposition supporters have petitioned the Supreme Court to dismiss her nomination, alleging it is unconstitutional.\nAnalysts say that since the rule of strongman Manuel Noriega ended in 1990, Panamanians have been suspicious of anything that might deviate from the rules governing the transfer of power.\nHow would her election help Mr Martinelli?\nMany believe that a win by Ms Linares would allow Mr Martinelli to remain influential and close to power.\nThere has also been speculation that an Arias-Linares government would seek to eliminate the constitutional requirement that a president sit out two terms before becoming eligible to run again - allowing Mr Martinelli an earlier bid for the top job.\nMeanwhile, Mr Martinelli has been busy campaigning for his Democratic Change party, engaging in what critics have called a veritable \"ribbon-cutting marathon\", which leads them to believe he is far from done with politics.\nAnd in a potential violation of a ban on campaigning by the president, he warned that economic growth would be jeopardized if any of his party's rivals won the election.\nWho is running for president?\nJose Domingo Arias is the candidate for the ruling Democratic Change (CD) party. He served in President Martinelli's government, most recently as housing minister.\nThe former mayor of Panama City, Juan Carlos Navarro of the centre-left Democratic Revolution Party (PRD), is the leading opposition candidate. An umbrella opposition movement, the New Republic, has been backing Mr Navarro as the best option to avoid the \"disguised re-election\" of Mr Martinelli.\nJuan Carlos Varela is the current vice-president. He is the candidate of the right-wing Panamenista Party and served for a time as foreign minister under President Martinelli.\nWho is favoured to win?\nMr Navarro and Mr Arias are the front-runners according to opinion polls, and analysts suggest it could be a very close result.\nThe president is elected to a five-year term by direct vote of the people, and whoever gets the most votes in the single round of voting wins.\nWhat challenges will the victor face?\nThe new president will inherit a strong but slowing growth rate in the Central American country of 3.6 million people and will oversee the completion of a multibillion-dollar expansion of the Panama Canal, which was disrupted this year by a dispute over cost overruns.\nBBC Monitoring reports and analyses news from TV, radio, web and print media around the world.

"While about 200 live safely on the Rock of Gibraltar, they are experiencing rapid decline in their natural habitats in North Africa.\nHundreds of infants are illegally taken from the wild each year for European pet markets.\nCountries banned any form of trade in the species.\nThe Barbary Macaque seems to specialise in isolation. It's the only African primate species north of the Sahara and the only macaque species in Africa.\nExperts estimate that there are between 6,500 and 9,100 Barbary Macaques in fragmented populations strung across Morocco and Algeria. They were categorised as endangered in 2008 as their numbers plummeted by 50% in 24 years.\nWhile destruction of habitat is a significant cause of their decline, another important factor is illegal trade.\nAbout 200 infants are taken from the wild in Morocco each year. Some are used as photo props for tourists in North Africa. Most are bought by Europeans wanting to raise them as pets.\nIn Morocco, the animals sell for up to 450 euros each. In Europe they can fetch 2,000 euros.\n\"People actually think it will be a suitable pet, it isn't, it's horrible,\" said Rikkert Reijnen of the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW).\n\"They need a lot of attention, they basically wreck your house and as they grow older they start to follow their natural behaviour, which is sometimes aggressive.\"\nMost end up in animal sanctuaries. Between 2001 and 2015, there were 545 reports of Barbary Macaques being rescued and sent to sanctuaries, mostly in France, Belgium and Spain. It's ironic that while the numbers in the wild are going down fast, the Macaque sanctuaries are over stocked.\nSo great is the concern about the impact of this pet trade on their survival that Morocco, supported by the EU, asked the Cites meeting here to put the animals on Appendix I. It was the first time in 30 years that Cites considered increasing the level of protection for a monkey species.\n\"This Appendix I listing means that the animal gets more attention from the authorities,\" said Rikkert Reijnen.\n\"When an Appendix I-listed species starts coming in to your country illegally, the authorities start thinking twice. There are a lot of tortoises coming into Europe but it doesn't have that priority with law enforcement, so that Appendix I listing is critical in getting that priority.\"\nWith an estimated 3,000 Barbary Macaques kept as pets in Europe, the EU is keen to be seen to doing what it can to stamp out the trade.\nMEP Gerben Jan Gerbrandy, is leading the European Parliament delegation to the Cites meeting and says that this is an important moment for the survival of the species.\n\"The adoption of the joint proposal from the EU and Morocco would be a key next step in protecting a species for which the EU is unfortunately a key destination market. Now we have to make sure that any agreement is properly and coherently enforced to the fullest effect. That is where the real difference will be made.\"\nIf the macaques are given increased protection, it may have some implications for Gibraltar. The population on the Rock has been kept to around 200 through culling, something that has proved controversial in the past.\nIf the species is elevated to Appendix I it's likely that the populations would have to be controlled through contraception and other humane methods.\nFollow Matt on Twitter and on Facebook."

The official assessment of paramilitary groups in Northern Ireland has not changed despite some very serious crimes, the PSNI chief constable said.
|
[
"George Hamilton was speaking after a meeting with Ulster Unionist leader Mike Nesbitt on Tuesday.\nMr Nesbitt asked for a briefing following Monday's murder before his decision on joining a new Executive.\nEarlier, Stormont's political parties were given a document with the main points of a programme for government.\nIt was delivered in talks that lasted just minutes.\nThe parties are to reconvene on Thursday to give their initial response.\nSpeaking after the brief talks, Mr Nesbitt said the Alliance Party had been offered the Justice Ministry. In response, Alliance said Mr Nesbitt had broken an agreement of confidentiality, with Stewart Dickson calling the Ulster Unionists \"flippant\".\nThe SDLP leader, Colum Eastwood, said he believed his party was \"a very long way\" from a programme to which they could sign up.\nSo what happens next?\nThe parties have been given until Thursday to make a formal initial response.\nThat's also the day the new Assembly meets for the first time - and sets the clock ticking on a two week negotiation period. But what are they being asked to agree on?\nSources close to the negotiations describe what will eventually emerge as a \"framework programme for government\" which will then go out for consultation.\nAt the end of this year a detailed programme for government will be produced.\nThere'll also be a budget for the next three to four years.\nAnd there'll be documents setting out strategies on the economy, capital investment and social policy strategy.\nSources say they've looked closely at the model in Scotland where a series of national outcomes describe what the Government wants to achieve over the next ten years.\nFollowing last week's Northern Ireland Assembly election, he DUP maintained the total of 38 seats that it held in the last assembly, while Sinn Féin lost one and now holds 28.\nThe Ulster Unionists have 16 seats, and the Social Democratic and Labour Party (SDLP) lost two and now have 12.\nThe Alliance Party secured eight seats during the election, meaning it does not have enough seats to automatically qualify for a ministerial department.\nAn executive will be formed when an agreement has been reached.\nSinn Féin's Martin McGuinness said the talks would be inclusive and he wanted to see all of the parties enter the new executive.\nDUP leader Arlene Foster said it might be more honest if those who have previously opposed the executive from the inside now do so on the outside.\nIn his meeting with Mr Nesbitt on Tuesday, the chief constable said that the paramilitary assessment commissioned by the secretary of state and published on 20 October 2015 remains valid.\n\"Over the course of the last seven months, there have been a number of very serious crimes committed in our community.\n\"Significant PSNI resources have been allocated to progress the investigations into these incidents. This investigative activity nor wider intelligence to date has not indicated any change to the position reflected in the October 2015 Paramilitary Assessment.\"\nAfter the meeting, Mr Nesbitt said: \"The chief constable confirmed no change from the assessment given to the secretary of state last October - PIRA still exists.\n\"This is not surprising, but disappointing, given PIRA have drawn the roadmap that others are following. George Hamilton would not be drawn on this week's shootings, but these are serious criminal acts.\"\nHe said the chief constable's assessment did not make re-entry to the executive \"any more attractive\".\nThe Ulster Unionists have \"two other tests regarding the Programme for Government,\" he said and expected answers in a few days' time."

"George Hamilton added that some of its members were involved in the murder of ex-IRA man Kevin McGuigan Sr last week.\nBut he said there is no evidence at this stage that the killing was sanctioned by the organisation.\nThe police assessment, he said, is that the Provisional IRA remains committed to politics and is not engaged in terrorism.\nMr Hamilton said that \"some of the Provisional IRA structure from the 1990s remains broadly in place\" but its purpose \"has radically changed since this period\".\n\"They are not on a war footing, they are not involved in paramilitary activity in the sense that they were during the period of the conflict,\" he said.\nMr McGuigan, 53, died after he was shot at his home in east Belfast in what detectives believe was a revenge attack for the killing of former IRA commander Gerard 'Jock' Davison in Belfast in May.\nThe chief constable said the two murders were the results of a \"fall-out\" within the republican community.\n\"Some current Provisional IRA and former members continue to engage in a range of criminal activity and occasional violence in the interest of personal gain or personal agendas,\" he added.\nMr Hamilton said the PSNI had no information to suggest that \"violence as seen in the murder of Kevin McGuigan\" was \"sanctioned or directed at a senior level\" in the republican movement.\nThe main unionist and nationalist parties met with Mr Hamilton on Saturday to discuss the police probe into killing.\nSinn Féin MLA Gerry Kelly said his party would support the investigation.\nAnd he reiterated remarks by the party's president Gerry Adams in which he said the IRA was not involved in the murder.\n\"The IRA stood down over 10 years ago,\" Mr Kelly said.\n\"Sinn Féin's commitment to peaceful and democratic progress is beyond question.\"\nHe added that the party had raised with Mr Hamilton \"concerns about a number of speculative and unhelpful comments made recently\".\nThe DUP's Gregory Campbell said his party would be meeting with the Northern Ireland Secretary of State Theresa Villiers about the alleged role of IRA members in the killing.\nHe added that there was no surprise among his party at the suggestions of IRA involvement.\nThe Ulster Unionist Party also met with Mr Hamilton on Saturday.\nParty leader Mike Nesbitt said afterwards that Sinn Féin's credibility was \"in tatters\" and it needed to \"accept some responsibility\" for Mr McGuigan Sr's killing.\n\"They continue to insult our intelligence by claiming no IRA involvement in this latest murder,\" Mr Nesbitt said.\nAfter the SDLP's meeting with the chief constable, its leader Alasdair McDonnell said the \"skeleton\" of the IRA remains in existence.\nBut he said the evidence was not there to collapse the assembly.\nThat came in response to comments from First Minister Peter Robinson, who said he would discuss the prospect of excluding Sinn Féin from the executive with other Northern Ireland parties."

A Mexican businessman accused of financing the jailbreak of Mexico's most notorious drug lord has been sent to prison pending trial.
|
[
"Prosecutors think Manuel Trillo helped Joaquin \"Shorty\" Guzman break out of the Altiplano jail in July.\nNow Mr Trillo has been sent to that very same prison.\nA manhunt is under way to catch Guzman, who leads the Sinaloa drug cartel, since he escaped through a 1.5km-long (one mile-long) tunnel on 11 July.\nAccording to investigators, Mr Trillo is the financial operator of the Sinaloa cartel and bankrolled Guzman's escape.\nHe is also accused of using illicit funds to purchase properties from 2012 to 2015 under false names.\nMore than 30 people have been arrested in connection with Guzman's escape, including the prison governor and several guards.\nGuzman's arrest in February 2014 was seen as a coup for Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto.\nThe cartel leader had been on the run for 13 years since escaping from another maximum security jail in 2001, reportedly hidden inside a laundry cart.\nBut his spectacular break-out from the Altiplano prison caused huge embarrassment.\nVideo footage showed how guards failed to detect his escape until more than 20 minutes had passed.\nQuestions have also been raised how the prison authorities could have failed to notice the construction of the tunnel leading directly into Guzman's cell.\nOn CCTV footage leaked to the media, the sound of drilling can be heard reverberating through his cell.\nInvestigators say Guzman's associates must have been planning the jailbreak since shortly after his arrest.\nNot only would the construction of the tunnel have taken time, but Guzman's associates also purchased a plot of land outside the jail and built a house to disguise the tunnel's exit.\nAttempts to recapture Guzman have so far failed although authorities said he was injured when he narrowly escaped from a police operation last month.\nHe is believed to be hiding in his home state of Sinaloa, in north-west Mexico."
] |
[
"Mexico's ex-head of federal prisons was among 13 people detained, sources close to the prosecutor said.\nThe ex-directors of the jail from which Guzman fled were also reportedly held.\nInvestigators say Guzman had inside help to ease his escape in July through a tunnel under a shower in his cell that ran 1.5km outside the prison.\nIt was the second escape from a maximum security prison for Guzman, whose Sinaloa cartel is responsible for much of Mexico's trafficking of drugs to the US.\nAt least seven officials, including two members of Mexico's secret service and two prison control room employees, had already been arrested, accused of not raising the alarm once Guzman had escaped.\nThe office of Mexico's attorney general confirmed the 13 new arrests on Friday, but did not reveal the identity of the suspects.\nHowever, the former national co-ordinator for Mexico's prison system, Celina Oseguera, was named as one of the suspects, sources close to the prosecutor told the AFP news agency.\nMs Oseguera was removed from her high-level post after Guzman escaped on 11 July.\nBoth directors of Altiplano prison, Valentin Cardenas and Lenor Garcia, who were also sacked after the escape, are also reportedly being held.\nAfter his escape in July, Guzman took to Twitter to taunt the police and insult Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto.\nMr Pena Nieto has promised that all those who had participated in the escape would be punished with \"the full weight of the law\".\nOne point of controversy has been whether the Mexican government should have agreed to a US request to extradite Guzman on the basis that American prisons would have been harder for Guzman to break out of.\nFirst arrested in Guatemala in 1993, Joaquin \"Shorty\" Guzman spent nearly a decade in another maximum-security Mexican jail before escaping, reportedly in a laundry basket.\nHe was on the run for 13 years before being held again in 2014 after a series of high-profile arrests of associates and covert surveillance by the US authorities."

"The teenager appears to have been bitten by an infected flea.\nThe authorities have sought to calm fears of an epidemic and have quarantined more than 100 people.\nBubonic plague, known as the Black Death when it killed an estimated 25 million people in Europe during the Middle Ages, is now rare.\nWorld Health Organisation epidemic disease expert Eric Bertherat told the BBC there were about 400 cases of bubonic plague reported in 2012.\nHe said Africa accounted for more than 90% of cases worldwide - especially Madagascar and the Democratic Republic of Congo.\nDr Bertherat said that bubonic plague in Central Asia was usually transmitted by fleas attached to small wild mammals, which meant that only those who lived in rural areas and worked outside for long hours were in danger of being affected.\n\"Because bubonic plague is such a rare event, local medical staff are not prepared to diagnose the disease and treat it appropriately,\" he said, \"which means the first patient usually dies without even a diagnostic.\n\"If secondary cases occur, medical staff are aware and better able to treat patients with antibiotics.\"\nThe teenager, named as Temir Issakunov, came from a mountain village in the north-east of the country, close to the border with Kazakhstan.\n\"We suspect that the patient was infected with the plague through the bite of a flea,\" health ministry official Tolo Isakov said.\nThe BBC's Rayhan Demytrie says that doctors failed to correctly diagnose his illness until tests were made after his death last week.\nTeams have been sent to the area to get rid of rodents, which host the fleas that can carry the deadly bacterium.\nReports suggest that the infected flea could have come from a marmot - a type of mountain squirrel sometimes hunted for food.\nKyrgyz authorities say that the availability of antibiotics means that there is no danger of an epidemic.\nMore than 2,000 people are being tested for bubonic plague in the Issik-Kul region.\nCheckpoints have been set up and travel and livestock transport restricted.\nNeighbouring Kazakhstan is reported to have tightened border controls to prevent the disease entering its territory.\nThere are three human plagues caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis of which bubonic plague is the most common.\nThe other two conditions are linked to bacteria in the blood - septicaemia - and bacteria in the respiratory system - pneumonia, which can be transmitted between humans by respiratory droplets.\nDuring the last 20 years, at least three countries experienced outbreaks of human plague after dormant periods of about 30-50 years, experts say.\nThese areas were India in 1994 and 2002, Indonesia in 1997 and Algeria in 2003.\nAccording to the World Health Organization, the last significant outbreak of bubonic plague was in Peru in 2010 when 12 people were found to have been infected."

"The infected delegates were among hundreds who had gathered for the four day forum organised by the Ministry of Health at a Nairobi hotel on Tuesday.\nThey have been isolated in a city hospital, but health officials say the number of people infected may rise.\nIt is unclear how they caught the disease, which has led to five deaths in the past month.\nCholera is an acute diarrhoeal infection caused by ingestion of food or water contaminated with the bacterium Vibrio cholera.\nMost of those infected will have no or mild symptoms but, in severe cases, the disease can kill within hours if left untreated.\nIn Yemen, a large cholera outbreak is fast approaching 300,000 cases, according to UN humanitarian chief Stephen O'Brien. He described it as a \"man-made catastrophe\" caused by both sides of the country's ongoing civil war.\nIn a press release on 24 May, Kenya's Ministry of Health said there had been 146 cases across the country since the outbreak began.\nSome of those infected had attended a wedding at an upmarket estate in Nairobi.\nAs a result, authorities put in place emergency measures to try and curb its spread.\nAn outbreak two years ago killed 65 people across Kenya."

King's College London could become the first British university to open a European campus since the referendum.
|
[
"King's has been collaborating with Technische Universität Dresden on a research initiative, known as Transcampus, since 2015.\nBut, according to Times Higher Education, an \"offshore King's College Europe\" is now on the cards.\nKing's College confirmed that it was discussing potential further collaborations with TU Dresden.\nThe two institutions already offer 10 joint professorships and several joint PhD programmes through Transcampus.\nHowever, its dean, Prof Stefan Bornstein, has told Times Higher Education that plans for the new King's campus are already \"in the process\".\nProf Bornstein, who is director and chairman of TU Dresden's department of medicine and an honorary consultant in diabetes and endocrinology at King's, said the plan would allow King's to have a presence in Europe and maintain access to European research funding post-Brexit.\nLikewise, he said, TU Dresden would benefit from increased ties to London, one of the \"leading academic centres in the world\".\nProf Bornstein said the new campus would hopefully run new undergraduate courses \"linked to innovation and the needs of industry and society\".\nThe aim would be to recruit leading scholars from around the world, he added.\nProf Bornstein said the Transcampus project had been envisaged before the EU referendum but admitted that it had become \"a lot more interesting\" since the vote.\n\"We cannot allow things that have developed for so many years in a positive way [to be] hampered by political decisions that actually nobody wanted,\" he said.\n\"It's a nice way to have a solution to get around this very stupid Brexit idea.\"\nA number of UK universities are believed to be considering opening branch campuses in Europe after Brexit - though earlier this year Oxford University rejected reports that it was in talks to open a Paris campus.\nProf Bornstein said he would expect the Transcampus model to be replicated by other universities in the UK and Europe, but stressed that the key was a long history of collaboration between researchers at the two institutions.\nIn a statement, King's said the university valued the Transcampus initiative \"which demonstrates the success of cross-national and institutional links\".\n\"We will continue to work together in various fields on research and exchange and discuss potential further collaborations.\""

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola says his side must "improve a lot of things" if they want to win the Premier League this season.

"Media playback is not supported on this device\nCity are top of the table with a 100% record after four games, with their most recent victory coming against Manchester United on Saturday.\n\"The way we have played up until now will not be enough to win the title,\" said the Spaniard, who succeeded Manuel Pellegrini in the summer.\nThe Blues last won the title in 2014.\nGuardiola, who is preparing his side to face Borussia Monchengladbach in the Champions League on Tuesday, added: \"Of course, we are so happy for the results, for the numbers and the way we're playing after two months.\n\"But it is not enough to win the Premier League or achieve the big, big targets in the Champions League.\"\nMonchengladbach coach Andre Schubert described his counterpart at City as \"the best there is\" and said their opponents had a chance of winning titles both at home and in Europe.\n\"I understand they might be trying to soften expectations but they have incredible strength,\" he said. \"Manchester City has a great chance to win one or two trophies.\"\nCity winger Raheem Sterling has said some of the recent criticism he has faced is unjustified.\nThe 21-year-old endured a difficult Euro 2016 as England were knocked out in the last 16 by minnows Iceland.\nHowever, he won August's Premier League player of the month after a strong start to the season with City.\n\"I have had unfair criticism. Last season I made my mark in the Champions League and I equalled my best scoring season,\" he said.\n\"Unfair criticism does put you down a little bit. No-one says I am willing to do my best for club and country. At times it is frustrating.\n\"Pep [Guardiola] has been a massive help. I spoke to him before and he said he watched me at Liverpool. He has made me stronger.\"\nMeanwhile, Guardiola has reiterated his support for new goalkeeper Claudio Bravo, who had an eventful debut in Saturday's derby win over Manchester United.\nThe Chile international was at fault for United's goal and some pundits felt he should have had a penalty awarded against him after a heavy challenge on Wayne Rooney.\nGuardiola defended his keeper after the game, saying Bravo had been integral to his side's good first-half performance.\nThe former Barcelona and Bayern Munich boss said on Monday that all goalkeepers made mistakes.\n\"I am going to tell you something: goalkeepers will make mistakes,\" he said. \"The opponents will score, I am sure of that.\"\nSubscribe to the BBC Sport newsletter to get our pick of news, features and video sent to your inbox."

England lost their last World Cup warm-up game by four wickets as Pakistan prevailed in a tense finish in Sydney.

"Alex Hales (31) and Gary Ballance (57) came into the England side but both got out playing loose shots when well set.\nJoe Root then hit 85 from 89 balls but fell in the penultimate over as England finished on 250-8 from their 50 overs.\nPakistan skipper Misbah-ul-Haq (91 not out) and Umar Akmal (65) kept them in contention, and Shahid Afridi saw them home with seven balls to spare.\nEngland must now decide on their XI to face Australia in Melbourne when the tournament begins on Saturday - with the biggest decisions resting over who joins pacemen James Anderson and Stuart Broad in the bowling attack.\nRarely tested in Monday's comfortable win over a lacklustre West Indies side, England rang the changes at the Sydney Cricket Ground to give their remaining squad members a run-out.\nHales and Ballance, who did not feature in the recent tri-series against Australia and India, were given a final chance to press their credentials as Ian Bell and James Taylor sat out, while Anderson and Broad - rested against the Windies - returned in place of Chris Woakes and Steven Finn.\nOpener Moeen Ali failed to build on his 46 against West Indies, getting a leading edge to cover for four.\nThough Hales and Ballance added 64, both players fell tamely to leg-spin as Hales gave Sohaib Maqsood a simple catch at mid-wicket off Afridi, while Ballance picked out the same fielder on the leg-side fence when trying to attack Yasir Shah (3-45).\nCaptain Eoin Morgan swiftly followed, edging to slip when trying to lap-sweep his third ball.\nRoot eventually found a durable partner in Chris Jordan (31 not out) as England reached the 250 mark off the last ball of their innings.\nAfter Broad and Anderson removed Pakistan's openers, Jordan and James Tredwell - battling for those bowling places - took a wicket apiece, inducing false shots from Younus Khan and Haris Sohail as Ballance threw himself around in the deep to take the catch on both occasions.\nIt left Pakistan's hopes resting with the vastly experienced Misbah, who added 133 with Akmal to keep his side in contention, and by the time Akmal edged Broad to keeper Buttler, Pakistan still needed 40 from 33 balls.\nWhen Maqsood (20) fell with eight needed from 14, the stage was set for the big-hitting Afridi, roared on by a noisy Pakistan fan contingent inside the SCG.\nThe veteran all-rounder did not disappoint, blasting Broad for successive fours in the penultimate over."

The European Commission chief, Jean-Claude Juncker, has said he feels "betrayed" by the "egotism" shown by Greece in the failed debt talks.
|
[
"He told a news conference that Greek proposals were \"delayed\" or \"deliberately altered\" and the Greek people \"should be told the truth\", but the door was still open to talks.\nTalks broke down on Friday sparking a weekend of dramatic developments.\nGreece called a surprise referendum and Greek banks are closed for a week.\nThe negotiations were not \"a game of liar's poker\", Mr Juncker said. \"Either all win or all lose\".\nHe said the talks were broken \"unilaterally\" by the announcement from the Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras that he was calling a referendum for 5 July.\nThe European Commission president said that he still believed a Greek exit from the euro was not an option and insisted that the creditors' latest proposal meant more social fairness - \"no wage cuts, no pension cuts\".\nIs Grexit nearer?\nOn Saturday, the European Central Bank (ECB) decided not to extend emergency finance to the Greek banks, after the breakdown of talks on giving heavily indebted Greece the last payment of its international bailout.\nFollowing the ECB announcement, Greece said its banks would remain shut until 6 July. Cash machines are now reopening, but customers can withdraw only limited amounts.\nGreece crisis - live coverage\nA critical deadline looms on Tuesday, when Greece is due to pay back €1.6bn to the International Monetary Fund - the same day the bailout expires. There are fears of a default and a possible exit from euro.\nThe French cabinet met on Monday in an emergency session. President Francois Hollande said afterwards that a deal was still possible if the Greeks wanted it.\n\"There are a few hours before the negotiation is definitively closed, in particular for the prolongation of the Greek aid programme.\"\nGerman Chancellor Angela Merkel's spokesman said that she was \"ready for further talks\" with the Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras \"if he actually wants to\".\nIn its decree bringing in the bank restrictions, the Greek government cited the \"extremely urgent\" need to protect the financial system due to the lack of liquidity.\nThe main points are:\nIn reaction to the crisis, the London, Paris, Frankfurt and Milan stock markets fell sharply in early trading on Monday, following similar falls in Asia.\nThe euro lost 2% of its value against the the US dollar. Government borrowing costs in Italy and Spain, two of the eurozone's weaker economies, have also risen.\nThe Athens stock exchange is also closed as part of the measures.\nEurozone finance ministers also blamed Greece for breaking off the talks, and the European Commission took the unusual step on Sunday of publishing proposals by European creditors that it said were on the table at the time.\nBut Greece described creditors' terms as \"not viable\".\nThe current ceiling for the ECB's emergency funding - Emergency Liquidity Assistance (ELA) - is €89bn (£63bn). It is thought that virtually all that money has been disbursed.\nThe temporary closure of banks in Greece, and the introduction of capital controls, is very bad news for Greece. Greek people will have less money to spend and business less to invest; so an already weak economy will probably return to deep recession.\nAs for the impact on the rest of the eurozone, corporate treasurers and wealthy individuals will wake up on Monday wondering if their money is safe in the banks of other weaker eurozone economies.\nGreece's bank holiday from hell"

"Spokesman Gabriel Sakellaridis told the press in Athens that labour and pension issues are non negotiable.\n\"We won't go beyond the limits of our red lines. It's clear that we cannot cut pensions.\"\nTalks with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the European Union (EU) will continue over the weekend.\nCreditors have demanded cuts in spending, including plans to trim the civil service and privatisation of state assets, in order for Greece to continue receiving loans.\nBut Greece's ruling left wing Syriza party, led by Alexis Tsipras, was voted in earlier this year on promises to ease up on the highly unpopular austerity measures with increases in the minimum monthly wage and a job creation programme.\nMr Sakellaridis said: \"There should not be an expectation on the part of institutions... that the government will back down on everything.\n\"When you negotiate, there should be mutual concessions.\"\nSome creditors, notably Germany, are losing patience with what they see as Greece's profligacy.\nThe prospect of a deep schism between Greece and the financial community, particularly the eurozone area, has haunted financial markets for years.\nThe president of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, said it would not be wise to openly discuss a Greek exit from the euro: \"If I were to say that \"Grexit\" [Greek exit from the EU] was an option, what do you think would happen then on the financial markets?\"\nBut in France, Finance Minister Michael Sapin was more reassuring, saying Greece's talks with its international creditors were heading in the right direction: \"The risk of things running off the rails for Greece also entails that risk for Europe,\" he said, calling for a \"push towards a compromise\" at Monday's gathering of eurozone finance ministers.\nGreece is due to make its next repayment - of €763m (£566m), one of its biggest - to the IMF on Tuesday.\nThe Greek finance minister, Yanis Varoufakis, insisted that the country will meet Tuesday's deadline, amid concerns that it may not have enough money to so do.\nSpeaking to the BBC, Mr Varoufakis said: \"The Greek government used to pretend it could meet certain targets that it knew it could not keep.\n\"This cycle of debt deflation and insincerity has to end. We are prepared to go all the way down to the wire.\n\"Europe works in glacial ways, and eventually does the right thing after it has tried all alternatives.\"\nHe ruled out a bailout agreement being reached at the eurozone finance ministers meeting on Monday, but insisted they \"will certainly have an agreement within the next couple of weeks or so.\"\nHe also said he is \"the chief negotiator of the Greek government\", countering claims that he had been sidelined after a reshuffle in the bailout negotiations team in late April.\nGreece met the deadline on Wednesday to pay the IMF €200m (£148m) in interest payments."

A US boy who made history as the world's first child to have a double hand transplant is now swinging a baseball bat well, his doctors say.
|
[
"It is two years since Zion Harvey, who is now 10, was given new hands, and his doctors say they are amazed by and incredibly proud of his progress.\nZion can now write and feed and dress himself, as well as grip a bat.\nAlthough his hands came from a donor, his brain has accepted them as his own, medical tests show.\nDr Sandra Amaral, a member of the team treating Zion at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, told the BBC that Zion continues to make significant progress.\n\"He is able to swing a bat with much more co-ordination, and he can write his name quite clearly.\n\"His sensation continues to improve. It's amazing.\n\"Now he can pat his mother's cheek and feel it.\"\nDr Amaral said there was evidence that his brain had rewired to take account of his new hands.\nThe team has published medical notes about his remarkable story in The Lancet Child and Adolescent Health journal.\nZion was born with two hands but when he was aged two, doctors had to amputate them.\nIn his own words: \"When I was two I had to get my hands cut off because I was sick.\"\nZion had sepsis, a life-threatening infection. Doctors removed both his hands at the wrist, and his legs below the knee because they were dying. His kidneys also failed.\nAt the age of four, after two years of dialysis, Zion had a kidney transplant using a kidney donated by his mother Pattie Ray.\nIt was another four years before the boy from Baltimore got his new hands.\nZion's hand operation in June 2015 was a big deal. Although not the first ever double-hand transplant - that was in 1998 - he was the youngest to ever have the procedure.\nHis doctors say Zion's medical story, along with his positive personality and determination, made him a great candidate.\nTransplant patients need to take lifelong anti-rejection drugs and these can have bad side-effects, which means the benefits of the surgery must outweigh the risks.\nZion was already on this medication for his kidney and after 18 months of close assessment, the medical team was confident a double-hand transplant could benefit him.\nNext came the wait for a donor of the right size, skin tone and blood group compatibility.\nThree months later they found a donor.\nA team of 40 medical staff, including 10 surgeons, operated through the night and into the early hours of the morning to fit Zion's new hands.\nOne of the biggest challenges was connecting up all the tiny blood vessels that would keep the hands alive.\nDr Benjamin Chang, co-director of the hand transplant programme at the hospital, recalls: \"We wanted to really make sure that this was going to work for our patient and work for a lifetime.\"\nZion Harvey: The boy with the double hand transplant\nTwo years on, Zion is doing well.\nThere were a few times in the first year after the transplant that Zion's doctors feared his body was starting to reject the new hands. Thankfully, tweaking his medication helped.\nHis doctors say one of the most promising things they have seen during the recovery period is how well Zion's brain has responded \"despite the absence of hands during a developmental period of rich fine motor development between the ages of two and eight years\".\nSpeaking about Zion last year, lead surgeon Dr Scott Levin said: \"His brain is communicating with his hands. His brain says for his hands to move and they move. And that in and of itself is remarkable.\""

The attack followed suicide bombs at Brussels airport which also killed 16.\nPeople can write their tributes to the victims on a commemorative wall inside Maelbeek station.\nThe metro system is now fully open.\nThe Brussels public transport authority (Stib) said that military and police officers would be present to \"ensure the security of the entire network\".\nThe metro would be running to the same timetable as before the attacks; however, the number of entry points is limited to one or two per station, Stib said. Since the attacks, the metro system had been running from 06:00 to 22:00 but on Monday resumed its normal hours of 04:30 to 00:30.\nSurvivors and relatives of the victims were able to visit the station on Saturday, before it re-opened.\nThe explosion on 22 March did not damage the structure of the metro station, according to Stib; the work carried out included re-tiling and painting.\nA commemorative art work will eventually replace the tribute wall."

At the time, it raised alarm when scientists calculated that it had a one-in-45 chance of smashing into the Earth in 2029.\nLater revisions, lifted this threat; instead on the Friday 13 April 2029, it will make a close pass at a distance of about 30,000km.\nHowever, astronomers say there is still a one-in-200,000 chance that it could strike Earth in 2036.\nProfessor Alan Fitzsimmons, an astronomer at Queen's University Belfast, UK, said: \"In 2029, it will pass so close to us that Earth's gravity will change its orbit.\n\"Most of the potential orbits it will end up on will mean we are safe for the next 100 years. But there is a small region of space - something we call a keyhole - and if it passes through that keyhole in 2029, it will come back and hit us on 13 April in 2036.\"\nIf this happened, it would strike the Earth with 100 times the energy in our largest nuclear bombs, said Prof Fitzsimmons.\nFuture hazards\nAstronomers are using the current close encounter as an opportunity to study the asteroid, so they can improve their calculations to predict its future path.\nProf Fitzsimmons said: \"While [the asteroid] is relatively close to the Earth, astronomers can ping it with radar. Radar measurements are incredibly accurate: we get the distance to the asteroid very, very precisely, and we can also get its velocity relative to us. And these two things let us pin its orbit down very precisely. \"\nResearchers are becoming increasingly interested in potentially hazardous asteroids.\nSo far they have counted more than 9,000 near-Earth asteroids, and they spot another 800 new space rocks on average each year.\nProf Fitzsimmons said learning more about them was vital.\n\"At some point, we are going to find an asteroid big enough that it could cause damage at ground level if we let it hit,\" he explained.\n\"So we should find these objects, we should track them, work out where they are going - and if they stand a chance of hitting us, do something about it.\""

"The comet, named 67P, is throwing out lots of material as it warms up on its journey towards the Sun.\nThe ball of rock and ice is being photographed by the Rosetta spacecraft, which is following it on its journey.\nRosetta was sent into space by the European Space Agency and is about 60 miles away from the comet, but still got these amazing pics.\nScientists say this was a special sighting: \"No-one has ever witnessed the wake-up of a dust jet before,\" said scientist Holger Sierks from the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research, in Germany.\nOver the next few weeks lots more jets of dust are expected, as the comet travels closer to the Sun."

"But the small group of public officials and local activists I met in a cafe there all remember when this area saw the Troubles at their most savage.\nAnd they associate the changes that have come, thanks to the peace process, with the benefits that have flowed from EU membership.\nNewry is just north of Northern Ireland's border, and Conor Patterson, now chief executive of the Newry and Morne Enterprise Agency, recalled what it was like to cross it in the bad old days.\n\"My mother was from Dundalk (in the Republic), so we travelled every week from Newry to Dundalk, and experienced weekly what the hard border meant in practice,\" he says.\n\"That was long queues - not just through the security border but thereafter at the customs post… it was really tough.\"\nPamela Arthurs, chief executive of East Border Region, a local authority-led cross-border organisation, worries about a Brexit threat to the stability which, she says, has been brought to the region by £2.4bn of EU funding.\n\"The concern we would have is if there was a Brexit, what would the alternative be?\" she asks.\n\"Are we assured that the amount of money would continue?\"\nListen to Brexit: The Irish Question by Ed Stourton on BBC Radio 4's Analysis programme on Monday 8 February at 20:30 GMT, or catch up via the iPlayer\nThe UK's EU referendum: Everything you need to know\nWhat will happen when?\nQ&A: What Britain wants from Europe\nFull coverage of the EU referendum\nUnionists who want to leave the EU bridle at the idea that it would undermine the peace process.\n\"We have come through far, far more difficult challenges to the political institutions in the peace process than this issue,\" says Nigel Dodds, MP for Belfast North and deputy leader of the DUP.\n\"The peace process was based on a desire to move Northern Ireland forward, away from years and decades of violence. That's not going to be interrupted or disadvantaged by whatever decision we make on the EU membership issue.\"\nBut the way the peace process has been raised as an issue in Northern Ireland reflects an important dimension to the forthcoming referendum on Britain's membership of the European Union.\nThe Brexit debate can look very different from different parts of the United Kingdom.\nSince the last time we voted on Europe - in 1975 - there has been a constitutional revolution.\nThe devolution of power to the Scottish Parliament and the Welsh and Northern Ireland Assemblies has changed the relationship between the constituent parts of the UK profoundly.\nDr Jo Hunt of Cardiff University, who studies the impact of devolution on the way government works in the UK, says that the \"devolved parts of the UK have developed their own relations with the European Union\", and argues that that is likely to be reflected in the way people vote.\nIn Northern Ireland the most important factor which makes the Brexit debate different is the border.\nIt is the UK's only land border with another sovereign state, which runs for more than 300 miles (483km) from Carlingford Lough on the Irish Sea to Lough Foyle in the North West.\nAnd fears that it might become a so-called \"hard\" border have prompted Belfast to get involved in the the UK's internal debate in a way some Unionists resent.\n\"When you have two countries that are linked in the way our countries are, with a land border between us and extraordinary economic, political, historical people-to-people links, anything that puts a barrier between them has to be a negative thing from our point of view,\" says Dan Mulhall, the Irish ambassador in London.\nHis Prime Minister, Enda Kenny, went a step further and, on a recent trip to London, warned that a Brexit could cause \"serious difficulties\" for Northern Ireland.\n\"I don't dispute that Irish Republic leaders and politicians have a right to express a view as far as it affects the Irish Republic,\" says the DUP's Nigel Dodds.\n\"I am critical when Enda Kenny comes to the UK and says a decision to leave is bad for Northern Ireland.\"\nAnd \"leave\" campaigners challenge the assumption that the border would change radically.\nVeteran MP Kate Hoey who was born in Northern Ireland and is co-chair of Labour Leave says: \"I don't see a situation where we would end up with big barriers up.\"\n\"I see no reason if we were not in the European Union why we wouldn't build a good relationship with the Republic that would work out a lot of these issues\".\nSinn Fein has in the past been sceptical about some aspects of the EU, but they will be in the \"stay\" camp, and it sees the possibility of what Martina Anderson - one of the party's MEPs - calls a \"constitutional opportunity\".\nIf the leave campaign wins but Northern Ireland votes to stay, it will, like the SNP in Scotland, push for a second, separate referendum there.\n\"The days of Mother England wagging its finger to Scotland, Wales and to us in the North, and that we would be pulled out of the EU if the people of Northern Ireland are against that, are over,\" Anderson says.\nMany of these positions, of course, reflect local political concerns, but their impact could be felt right across the UK.\nCardiff University's Dr Jo Hunt argues that the referendum \"is far more than just a question about remaining in the EU. It is about our constitutional future\".\nDevolution has, she points out, been \"an ongoing and evolving\" process.\n\"This,\" she believes, \"could be seen as a trigger button.\""

"The streets of Northern Ireland's capital have been built on top of rivers that still flow far below the city's pavements.\nBoth the Farset and the Blackstaff rivers determined the shape of the city that grew up around the narrowest bridging point of the Farset, where High Street is today.\nAnd the little-known river even gave Belfast its name, Béal feirste (the mouth of the Farset).\nFarset itself comes from the Irish word for sandbar.\nThe history of these hidden rivers is explored in a BBC Newsline series.\nReporter Ita Dungan discovers what the city's defining waterways are like above ground, and what those that are hidden are like below ground.\nOld photographs and computer-generated images bring the rivers' histories to life and reveal regeneration plans that are benefitting Belfast's residents and wildlife.\nIn its heyday, the River Farset powered the linen mills on the Crumlin and Falls Roads.\nIts journey takes it from a spring at Squires Hill, far above the city, down into Ballysillan, before cutting across the Crumlin and Shankill Roads.\nIt then roughly follows the peaceline before heading under the Westlink motorway and into Belfast.\nIt runs under the city centre in large pipes, some of which big enough for a bus to go through them.\nBelfast grew up around the narrowest bridging point of the Farset, where High Street is today.\nThe Farset also determined High Street's curving shape.\nAt Great Victoria Bus Station, as buses and passengers come and go, deep underground, the Blackstaff river is making its way towards the River Lagan.\nA fresh clear spring, the Blackstaff rises south of Black Mountain, flows along the bog meadows where it joins up with the Clowney River and divides.\nThe original river then heads north into the city centre towards the gas works, and the 1960s relief culvert runs south towards the Lagan at Botanic.\nToday, it may flow quietly along the Boucher Road, but many will remember the Blackstaff's power during the 'big flood' of 1952, when parts of Tates Avenue were completely submerged.\nThe destruction forced a changing of the river's course and a huge underground culvert was constructed under Broadway roundabout to contain any overflow.\nNow, the Blackstaff runs under the bus station, the Europa hotel, the BBC Blackstaff Studios, the gas works and then into the Lagan.\nWith Titanic Quarter on one side and east Belfast and Victoria Park on the other, the River Connswater is another of Belfast's defining waterways.\nThe opening of the Sam Thompson Bridge last year was one of the first steps in transforming the landscape of the river's entire course.\nThe bridge links the Harbour Estate and Titanic Quarter.\nThe river itself rises in the Castlereagh hills and runs northwards through east Belfast, getting wider until it reaches the sea at Belfast Lough.\nThe sea shows its full force from time to time, flooding nearby houses, but designating the area as a place of scientific interest has done more than protect the birds and mud flats.\nA raised bank of wild flowers acts as a giant sponge soaking up floodwaters and protecting residents.\nFollow the Connswater upstream to Mersey Street, and the banks of this once rubbish-filled part of the river are under regeneration.\nThere are also plans to put reinforced concrete floodwalls all the way down to the Sydenham bypass to protect homes and businesses.\nOff the Beersbridge Road, the Knock and the Loop rivers join and become the Connswater.\nVan Morrison sang about this part of the river in his song Brown-Eyed Girl, but the area has a lot more history; a 400-year-old bridge and water that made something quite a bit stronger.\nIn Victorian times, two-thirds of whiskey exported from Ireland came from Belfast, and around half of that came from two distilleries - the Connswater distillery and the Avoneil distillery.\nFurther upstream at Orangefield Park, Connswater's transformation is even more apparent.\nThe river used to run along fences at the back of the houses, which were susceptible to flooding. Instead of building floodwalls, here the river has been 'moved' to become a central feature of the park.\nA heron, a little egret and a kingfisher have already been spotted along the banks, along with all of the birds normally associated with wetland areas.\nIt's now become an asset to the area and a place for people to come and relax.\nHidden Rivers starts on BBC Newsline 6.30 on BBC1 Northern Ireland at 18:30 BST."

The scheme that assesses claimants of disability benefits faces a major overhaul, with ministers promising to extend a "revolution" of getting more people into work.
|
[
"A consultation on reforming the Work Capability Assessment was announced on Monday.\nWork and Pensions Secretary Damian Green said he wanted a \"personalised\" way to help more people find jobs.\nThe charity Scope said it welcomed the planned changes.\nBoth Employment Support Allowance (ESA), which is paid to more than two million people, and the assessments, were originally introduced by Labour and then expanded by the coalition government.\nThe consultation follows the announcement that people with severe conditions will no longer face reassessments for their benefits.\nIt will examine how people receiving ESA can be helped back into employment without having their benefits put at risk while they search for a job.\nMr Green told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: \"We need to change across the system so we will be changing so it's no longer just a binary assessment... much more personalised.\"\nSaying he did not want to \"categorise\" people, he added that he wanted to change the \"mindset\" of businesses: \"We want them to realise that there's a huge pool of talented people who are disabled and want to work and can contribute fully in the workplace.\"\nMr Green said: \"We've got historically high employment levels. We want to spread that so everyone can enjoy the revolution that we have seen in job creation in the last few years.\"\nThe Department for Work and Pensions places claimants assessed eligible for ESA in either the \"work-related activity group\" or \"support group\".\nThe work-related activity group means officials have decided a claimant's disability or health condition currently means they are unable to have a job but are capable of making some effort to find employment.\nThey receive up to £102.15 a week in ESA payments while attending employment-focused interviews and training. From April 2017, payments will fall to £73.10 for new claimants, bringing the rate into line with Jobseeker's Allowance.\nThose in the \"support group\", who have been deemed unable to work and are not required to do anything to improve their chances of finding a job, receive up to £109.30 a week.\nMr Green said it had been envisaged that \"about 10%\" of those assessed would end up in the support group, but it was actually \"about 50%\".\nHe added: \"In the long run there's nothing more expensive than saying we are going to leave people on benefits for a lifetime. It's expensive and bad for the individual…\n\"The idea that sitting at home, living only on benefits, is in any way good for people is completely wrong.\"\nFormer work and pensions secretary Iain Duncan Smith, who spearheaded the government's welfare reforms for six years before resigning in March, agreed ESA was \"in real need of reform\".\nFor Labour, shadow work and pensions secretary Debbie Abrahams called for the assessments to be scrapped, saying they caused \"needless misery and stress\" for thousands of sick and disabled people.\nShe said the government's approach was \"ideologically driven with the sole purpose of targeting the most vulnerable in our society to pay for their austerity plans, painting disabled people as scroungers and shirkers, whilst making no impact on the disability employment gap\".\nScope chief executive Mark Atkinson said: \"The current fit-for-work test doesn't accurately identify the barriers disabled people face in entering or staying in work.\n\"An assessment should be the first step to getting support and should be separate from determining benefits entitlement.\"\nThe Equality and Human Rights Commission's chief executive, Rebecca Hilsenrath, suggested apprenticeship schemes could use positive action to employ more disabled people.\nCitizens Advice said it dealt with 25,000 issues around Work Capability Assessments last year, saying the reforms should make the test \"fair, consistent and right first time\"."

"It follows government criticism over \"significant quality failures\".\nDisabilities Minister Mike Penning said a new company would be appointed in early 2015, and Atos would not receive \"a single penny of compensation\".\nAtos had been due to finish in August 2015. It said the settlement was \"in the best interests of all parties\".\nIt also said it would \"work hard to support transition to a new provider\", adding: \"We will be transferring our infrastructure and employees to ensure consistency of service to those going through the process.\n\"There will be no change for those applying for Employment and Support Allowance.\"\nLast month, Atos said it was seeking to end its government contract under which it carried out the Work Capability Assessments.\nAtos will continue to carry out the assessments in Northern Ireland under a separate contract.\nIt will also continue with assessments for Personal Independence Payment (PIP) - another welfare change introduced by the government - in Scotland, the north of England, London and the south of England.\nAnother company, Capita, provide PIP assessments in central England, Wales and Northern Ireland.\nClaimants applying for Employment and Support Allowance must undergo a Work Capability Assessment to see how their illness or disability affects their ability to work.\nAtos has been criticised over the number of these assessments it has made as well as for lengthy waiting times.\nDisability campaigners have described the work tests as \"ridiculously harsh and extremely unfair\".\nLast summer, the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) identified \"significant quality failures\" in the written reports Atos produced after tests and put a plan for improvement in place.\nBut in February, the DWP said standards had declined unacceptably.\nMr Penning said the government was looking for a provider to replace Atos \"with the view to increasing the number of assessments and reducing waiting times\".\nHe said: \"I am pleased to confirm that Atos will not receive a single penny of compensation from the taxpayer for the early termination of their contract.\n\"Quite the contrary, Atos has made a substantial financial settlement to the department.\"\nThe DWP said \"one national provider\" would be appointed to take over the contract early next year.\nIn the longer term, it said, it planned to take on \"multiple providers\".\nAtos chief executive Ursula Morgenstern said: \"We are pleased to have reached an agreement with the government to allow us to exit this contract early and we remain committed to delivering essential services to the UK government as a strategic supplier.\"\nShe said the company would \"work hard to support transition to a new provider\".\nRichard Hawkes, chief executive of disability charity Scope, meanwhile, said: \"I doubt there's a single disabled person who'll be sorry to hear that Atos will no longer be running the fit-for-work tests.\"\nHe said the \"fundamentally flawed\" test should be \"more than an exercise in getting people off benefits\".\n\"It should make sure disabled people get the specialist, tailored and flexible support they need to find and keep a job.\"\nPublic and Commercial Services union general secretary, Mark Serwotka, said the assessments were \"designed to harass vulnerable people and take their benefits away rather than provide support and guidance\".\n\"Doctors, MPs and disabled people all believe the tests should be scrapped so, instead of replacing the failed Atos with another profit-hungry provider, the government should bring the work in-house and invest in it properly.\"\nAnd charity Sense called for a \"root-and-branch reform of the system to ensure disabled people are judged fairly on their ability to work\".\nShadow work and pensions minister Kate Green joined calls for the government to \"reform fundamentally\" the assessment system, adding that people with disabilities who could work must be given the \"support they need to find a job\"."

Crystal Palace manager Ian Holloway has described the rule that has allowed Watford to make 11 international loan signings as "ludicrous".

[
"The Hornets named seven loan players in their squad to face Palace on Friday, six of whom are from Watford's sister clubs Udinese and Granada.\n\"They've got some world-class players that they've borrowed from almost one club,\" Holloway told BBC Sport.\n\"It seems pretty ludicrous to me,\" he said after a\nUnder Football League rules, sides are only allowed to name five loan players in a matchday squad and can only take two players on a standard loan from any one club.\nBut loan deals arranged with foreign teams are recognised as transfers, meaning there is no limit to the number of loanees from overseas.\nIt also means that Gianfranco Zola's Watford were able to earlier in the season.\nWatford currently have 10 players from Udinese and Granada on their books - teams who are also under the umbrella of Hornets owners the Pozzo family - and six of these were named on the teamsheet for Friday's game.\nNathaniel Chalobah, on loan from Chelsea, was the only Watford player in the squad who counted towards their loan quota.\nStriker Fernando Forestieri was also on loan from Udinese earlier in the season, until\nIt is a system that has worked well for Zola, whose side are third in the Championship.\nHolloway, who saw one of his own loan players, Kevin Phillips, net the equaliser at Vicarage Road, added: \"We're only allowed to borrow two from the same team in this country. Unlimited abroad? That gives a licence to people to buy English clubs, chuck all their players over here and have a reserve team.\n\"What if Barcelona wanted to buy us and play their 'B' team for us? We've got to sort this out.\n\"No arguing - what their manager is doing and how they're doing it is fantastic. If there's a loophole, they've found it and some of those players are as good as any I've seen in the world.\n\"But I can't believe there's such a massive loophole, and my question is - where are those English players going to come from?\"\nDespite a reliance on foreign imports, Watford have maintained their tradition of using young, homegrown players.\nEight players produced from the Watford academy have played a competitive match for the Hornets this season."

Niasse, signed by Roberto Martinez, failed to score in 152 minutes of first-team football and was not given a squad number by new Toffees boss Ronald Koeman.\nManchester United fans were also left confused on the same deadline day when the Red Devils brought in Andy Kellet from Bolton on loan for six months. Kellett had only made four senior appearances for Bolton and was used to boost United's reserve team.\nUnable to command a place in West Ham's first team, the agent of midfielder Julien Faubert pulled of a coup by convincing Real Madrid to take the Frenchman on loan for the remainder of the season on deadline day in January 2009. He made two appearances and infamously fell asleep while on the bench during a match against Villarreal.\nAn alcohol-fuelled scouting trip, some dodgy VHS tapes and a case of mistaken identity were some of the theories for Milton Nunez's deadline-day move to Sunderland in March 2000. The diminutive Honduran striker was bought by Peter Reid for £1.6m from Nacional of Uruguay but made just a solitary league appearance for the Black Cats.\nIn attempt to avoid relegation, QPR broke their club record transfer fee to sign defender Christopher Samba from Anzhi Makhachkala for £12.5m in January 2013. \"He's a monster,\" said then manager Harry Redknapp, sounding a little like cult agent Eric Hall, only to sell him back to the Russian Premier League club six months later.\nArsenal manager Arsene Wenger has a penchant for a left-field deadline-day transfer signing. In August 2011 he brought in left-back Andre Santos from Fenerbahce for £6.2m. After an underwhelming career at Emirates Stadium he headed back to his native Brazil.\nManchester City manager Pep Guardiola made it clear that goalkeeper Joe Hart, 29, was free to find himself a new home.\nLast week's signing of Claudio Bravo effectively pushed Hart down to City's third choice position and the England man has elected to join Italian side Torino on loan, with the deal set to be announced on Wednesday.\nAlso likely to be looking at the City exit doors are Samir Nasri, 29, and Yaya Toure, 33.\nNasri has been linked with a move to Spanish side Sevilla while Toure is yet to feature in a league match this season.\nThis is the first season that teams outside the Premier League will not be able to use the emergency loan window to sign players between the end of August and the start of January.\nThat means we can expect a lot more action from the teams in the EFL than would normally be the case.\nTuesday saw the biggest Championship transfer ever with Bristol City selling striker Jonathan Kodjia to Aston Villa for a fee of up to £15m.\nThere had already been some big-money moves in the Championship this summer with Ross McCormack joining Villa from Fulham for £12m, Newcastle signing Matt Ritchie from Bournemouth for the same amount and Derby adding Matej Vydra from Watford for £8m.\nBristol City are now likely to be active on Tuesday in a bid to replace Ivorian Kodjia, while Nottingham Forest received £13m for winger Oliver Burke from RB Leipzig on Sunday and fans will hope to see some of that money reinvested.\nIn League One, Sheffield United got their first win of the season on Saturday and boss Chris Wilder may well be appealing for funds to kickstart a promotion push, while League Two Portsmouth may be willing to spend in order to avoid a fourth successive season in the bottom tier."

Two private planes owned by Elvis Presley - the Lisa Marie and Hound Dog II - are going up for auction.
|
[
"The Lisa Marie, named after his daughter, was bought by Presley in 1975 and refurbished to include a master suite with full-size bed and conference room.\nNeither plane is airworthy but have been on display at Graceland for more than 30 years for fans to tour.\nThey are being auctioned off by Julien's by sealed bids.\nPresley bought the Convair 880 jet in 1975, two years before his death, and spent about $300,000, refitting it and renaming the Lisa Marie. It also features a bathroom with gold taps and a stereo system with 50 speakers.\nThe tail is adorned with Presley's trademark TCB for Taking Care of Business.\nThe last flight it took was to transport his former wife Priscilla Presley and actor George Hamilton to his funeral.\nIt was sold by his father, Vernon, in 1978, and had two owners before being bought by a consortium in a joint venture with the owners of Graceland to allow it to be displayed at the tourist hotspot.\nThe agreement with the owners and Graceland expires in 2015.\nThe Hound Dog II, a Lockheed JetStar, was bought in 1975 as a stopgap while the Lisa Marie was being prepared. It arrived at Graceland in 1984.\nThe planes are being sold as one lot, with the option to buy land next to Graceland to display them, independent of the Presley Museum."

"The lots included a Rolls-Royce Phantom owned by Sir Elton John, which went for £123,750.\nA Rolls-Royce Corniche Convertible, previously owned by the Qatari royal family, was snapped up for £135,000.\nBut a number of cars in the collection failed to achieve their reserve prices, including a 2012 Bentley Mulsanne owned by the Queen.\nA 1994 Audi Cabriolet, previously owned by Princess Diana, was sold for £54,000.\nDiana travelled about 4,000 miles in the car.\nOther highlights during the auction included the sale of a 1972 Fiat 500L, which was bought by former Prime Minister David Cameron as a birthday present to his wife Samantha, and fetched £20,813.\nA 1976 Bentley owned by Michael Winner and a 1980 Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith II, formerly owned by Princess Margaret, also failed to meet their reserves.\nThe Jewels In The Crown Collection went under the hammer at the NEC Classic Motor Show on Saturday and Sunday."

Sarah Brightman has been working with her former husband Andrew Lloyd Webber on a song she can perform in space.
|
[
"The British soprano, who is training at Star City near Moscow, is due to blast off on a Russian Soyuz craft on 1 September.\nThe 54-year-old will spend 10 days aboard the International Space Station (ISS), 260 miles (420 km) above Earth.\nBrightman said singing in space was a \"very different\" proposition to performing on Earth.\nSpeaking at a press conference in central London, the Phantom of the Opera star said her team were trying to work out the technical details of performing on the ISS.\n\"I would like to connect with a choir, or children or another singer or an orchestra on Earth,\" she told reporters.\nBrightman said she had been working with Lord Lloyd-Webber to find a song that \"suits the idea of space\".\nShe recorded the song in New York last week and it will appear on a retrospective of her career, out later this year.\n\"To sing in microgravity is a very different thing to singing down here,\" she said. \"We use the Earth to ground ourselves when we sing and the air around us.\n\"This is going to be very different. I'm trying to find a piece that is beautiful and simple in its message, as well as not complicated to sing.\"\nShe didn't want to \"promise too much\", she went on, because of the complexity of the idea.\nIn 2013, Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield's rendition of David Bowie's Space Oddity from the ISS become a huge YouTube hit.\nBrightman is thought to be paying around £34m ($51m) to become the eighth space tourist. She said she had paid for the trip herself, but could not \"contractually\" say how much it had cost.\nShe will be part of a three-person crew travelling to the ISS. The last space tourist to make the trip was Cirque du Soleil founder Guy Laliberte in 2009.\nBrightman said the Moon landing in 1969 - which she watched as a nine-year old - had been \"a pivotal moment\" in her life.\nShe joked that while in space she might \"do some of the movements\" from 1978 chart hit I Lost My Heart to a Starship Trooper.\nThe track was performed on Top of the Pops by dance troupe Hot Gossip, with whom Brightman began her career.\nIn the 1980s, Brightman starred on the West End stage in Cats and The Phantom of the Opera. Both were penned by Andrew Lloyd Webber, whom she married in 1984.\nThe pair divorced in 1990 and Brightman embarked on a solo singing career.\nThe singer helped popularise the classical crossover genre, scoring a worldwide hit with her duet with Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli, Time To Say Goodbye.\nBrightman began Tuesday's press conference by saying she had talked to many people who have travelled in space.\n\"They have all said it is indescribable. You feel a mixture of laughter and tears. You feel humble but you can see the bigger picture.\n\"It's been an unusual path that has taken me to this point and it hasn't been an easy journey. I've found out a lot about myself.\"\nThe singer has also spent time training at Star City with Tim Peake, who will become the first \"official\" British astronaut when he goes to the ISS at the end of 2015."

"The project \"is in the style of disco, using about five of my songs and some new ones,\" he told Radio 4's Front Row.\n\"I don't know the story yet. My friend Harald Kloser, a great producer who is currently doing Independence Day 2, is really an expert in writing scripts, directing and music.\n\"I think he's coming up with a great idea,\" he added.\nMoroder, one of the forefathers of electronic dance music, produced huge hits for Donna Summer during the late-1970s disco era, including I Feel Love and Love to Love You Baby.\nHe has since collaborated with dozens of artists including David Bowie, Kylie Minogue and Daft Punk.\nThe 75-year-old has also won three Oscars, including one for best original score for Midnight Express.\nHe told Front Row presenter John Wilson that he was choosing which of his many hits to use on the production.\n\"Definitely Call Me (recorded by Blondie in 1980 ) but Flashdance is too typical. Maybe Take My Breath Away (from the film Top Gun).\"\nMoroder said there were no plans to debut the jukebox-style musical in a Broadway theatre.\n\"The idea is to have it in the smaller theatres in America,\" he explained. \"The company which is investing has thousands of smaller theatres. Maybe someday we would head for Broadway but [it will be] smaller for now.\"\nWith no title or storyline, it is too early to discuss casting but Moroder insisted \"we're not going to have big stars\".\n\"We are going to use the original singers and tracks. This is all pre-recorded. Even the new songs we do will be pre-recorded. The show is more like the story behind them.\"\nYou can hear the full interview on BBC Radio 4's Front Row on Monday 1 June."

The UK's construction sector ended 2016 well, expanding at the fastest pace for nine months in December, according to a closely watched survey.
|
[
"The Markit/CIPS purchasing managers' index (PMI) rose to 54.2 in December, up from 52.8 the month before. A figure above 50 indicates expansion.\nHowever, the sector \"continued to experience intense cost pressures\".\nMarkit said that the increase in costs seen last month was the biggest since April 2011.\nThis came as suppliers passed on the higher costs of imported raw materials. The sharp fall in the value of the pound following last year's Brexit vote has made imported goods more expensive.\nTim Moore, senior economist at IHS Markit, hailed \"a solid rebound in construction output during the final quarter of 2016\".\n\"All three main areas of construction activity have started to recover from last summer's soft patch, but in each case, growth remains much weaker than the cyclical peaks seen in 2014,\" he said.\n\"Housebuilding remains a key engine of growth for the construction sector, with the latest upturn the fastest for almost one year.\n\"Meanwhile, commercial activity was the weakest performing category in December, reflecting an ongoing drag from subdued investment spending and heightened economic uncertainty.\"\nThe construction survey, together with a similar survey of the manufacturing sector released on Tuesday, suggests the UK economy remained robust at the end of 2016, although the manufacturing survey also found firms facing rising costs.\nThe survey of the UK's dominant service sector is due to be released on Thursday."

[
"The CIPS/Markit composite purchasing managers' index (PMI) rose to 54.1, compared with 53.6 a month earlier - its highest reading in 49 months.\nA reading above 50 indicates growth, while a reading below 50 suggests a fall in activity.\nMarkit said the services sector had seen its best quarter for four years.\nIn addition, factories enjoyed their best quarter of production growth for a year, \"highlighting the broad-based nature of the upturn\".\nEmployment and new orders also rose at their strongest rates for four years in the second quarter.\n\"Despite the cloud of the Greek debt crisis hanging over the region, the eurozone saw economic growth accelerate to a four-year high in June,\" said Chris Williamson, chief economist at Markit.\n\"The PMI is signalling GDP growth of 0.4% for the region as a whole in the second quarter.\"\nThe eurozone's gross domestic product (GDP) rose by 0.4% in the first quarter, according to official figures.\nMr Williamson added that the eurozone's economy was on course to grow by 2% this year, \"though much of course depends on the outcome of the Greek debt negotiations and any resulting impact on growth in the second half of the year\".\nBusiness activity picked up in both Germany and France in June, but Germany saw a weaker growth rate in the second quarter compared with the first.\nExcluding France and Germany, the rest of the eurozone recorded its best performance for eight years, Markit said."

Glamorgan chief executive Hugh Morris believes Cardiff is ideally placed to be one of eight city sides hosting matches in a new Twenty20 tournament.
|
[
"The new competition planned by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) is set to start in 2020.\nGlamorgan became the first county to launch its bid at the Senedd in Cardiff Bay on Thursday, and could face competition from Bristol.\n\"We believe Cardiff has a compelling case,\" Morris told BBC Wales Sport.\nThe Welsh club is seeking support for its bid from Cardiff council and the Welsh Government.\nMorris continued: \"Cardiff is one of the greatest sporting capitals in the UK and has hosted some of the world's major sports events.\n\"We have a great stadium that has been able to deliver two Ashes tests.\n\"We have got a great city with a huge sporting tradition and are used to working with a Team Wales approach and putting on a great show.\"\nThere have been no details yet about where the city franchises will be issued, with Morris not being drawn on a possible name or whether Cardiff is in direct competition with Bristol.\n\"We have had no criteria in terms of venue selection, that will come in the coming months,\" added Morris.\n\"The name is an important detail but something that needs to ironed out.\"\nA final decision on the eight cities and next round of international matches for 2020-2024 is expected towards the end of the year.\nAfter lengthy negotiations, the ECB presented the detailed overview of its proposals for the new competition this week, with Essex only emerging publicly so far as a dissenting voice.\n\"This had to happen [for the future of county cricket],\" said Morris.\n\"Many counties have struggled, ourselves included.\n\"It has been a long process but there are lots of different stakeholders to consider.\n\"We have reached a place where pretty much everyone is happy. This is going to be an important cog in the cricket wheel.\n\"There might one or two who are less comfortable but the consensus is heading in the right direction.\"\nMorris also pointed to the declining numbers of cricketers in England and Wales as a reason for the competition's introduction.\n\"We have seen in India and Australia domestic T20 cricket has been hugely successful not just financially but also growing the game,\" added Morris.\n\"There have been some alarming statistics at the participation rates here.\n\"This is a chance to restore cricket as the national summer sport. We have dropped off the radar and need to get back there.\"\nMorris insisted Glamorgan's financial future was not dependent on being chosen as one of the host cities but recognised the benefits.\n\"The ECB have said each of the 18 first-class counties is going to get £1.3m whatever, that is significant funding,\" said Morris.\n\"The attraction is being one of the hosts.\n\"This tournament will be big business with real global profile which will be beamed around the world.\"\nThe 18 counties will still run alongside the new tournament in the existing domestic competitions."

"The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) will announce in the new year which six sides will take part in the inaugural Twenty20 event next season.\nSussex, Berkshire, Oxfordshire, Wiltshire, Dorset and the Isle of Wight support the Ageas Bowl's bid.\n\"We feel the bid sits very well with our development of women's and girls' cricket here,\" bid general manager Bobby Parks told BBC Radio Solent.\nFormer Hampshire wicketkeeper and academy manager Parks revealed the bid will be submitted by the deadline of 13 November.\n\"We've managed to encourage six other counties to come with us,\" he added.\n\"We feel creating a region will really strengthen our bid and encourage the ECB to award it our way.\"\nTwenty eight organisations told the ECB of their interest in forming teams for the competition before the initial expression of interest stage closed in August.\nThe Women's Super League will be a T20 competition only for its first year before taking in the 50-over format as well from 2017.\nIt will receive a £3m investment from the ECB over four years.\nThe plan is to attract the world's best players to compete alongside England's leading female cricketers similar to Australia's Women's Big Bash League, which begins its inaugural season in December."

Japanese PM Shinzo Abe has taken world leaders to the Shinto religion's holiest site, as the Group of Seven (G7) summit begins in the country.
|
[
"Mr Abe said the visit was so that they could \"understand the spirituality of Japanese people\".\nThe two-day G7 meeting in Ise-Shima brings together industrialised nations.\nOn Friday, US President Barack Obama will visit Hiroshima - the site of the first atomic bomb - the first sitting US president to do so.\nThe visit to the shrine is controversial because critics say Mr Abe is catering to his conservative supporters who want to revive traditional values.\nTop of the agenda for the G7 nations - the US, Canada, Britain, Italy, Germany, France and Japan - will be concerns over the health of the global economy.\nEurope's refugee crisis will also feature prominently at the meeting. European Council President Donald Tusk said on Thursday he would ask the G7's support for more global aid for refugees.\n\"If we (G7) do not take the lead in managing this crisis, nobody would,\" Mr Tusk said to reporters.\nTerrorism, cyber security and maritime security are also on the agenda.\nOn Wednesday, Mr Obama and Mr Abe met for talks where the US president expressed regret over the arrest of a US military base worker in Okinawa in connection with the death of a local woman.\nMr Obama also mentioned his upcoming visit to Hiroshima, saying it would \"honour all those who were lost in World War Two and reaffirm our shared vision of a world without nuclear weapons, as well as highlight the extraordinary alliance that we have been able to forge over these many decades\".\nHe has previously said he would not be apologising for the dropping of the bomb by the US."

"Keiji Furuya and Yoshitaka Shindo visited the shrine to mark the 69th anniversary of Japan's surrender in World War Two.\nThe Yasukuni shrine commemorates Japan's war dead, including convicted war criminals.\nPrime Minister Shinzo Abe did not visit the shrine but sent a ritual offering instead.\nInternal Affairs and Communications Minister Yoshitaka Shindo, a regular visitor to the shrine, said he was not worried that his visit would cause diplomatic tension.\n\"Many valuable lives perished in the war. I came here to pray so that something like this will never happen again,\" he said.\nThe shrine is dedicated to souls of Japanese nationals who died in wars, but those venerated include 14 convicted Class A war criminals.\nA museum in the shrine's grounds is also deeply controversial because of the way it presents Japan's World War Two history.\nVisits to the shrine anger China and South Korea, who see it as a symbol of Japan's World War Two aggression and accuse Tokyo of failing to show adequate remorse.\nChina said it resolutely opposed such visits, calling the shrine a \"spiritual tool of Japanese militarism\".\n\"Only when Japan earnestly faces up to and deeply reflects on its history of aggression and completely makes a clean break from militarism, can it be possible for Sino-Japanese relations to achieve a healthy and stable development,\" said Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying in a statement.\nSouth Korea's foreign ministry said it \"cannot help deploring\" the visit and Mr Abe's offering, according to Yonhap news agency.\nSouth Korean President Park Geun-hye also called on Japanese leaders to show sincerity over historical issues, in a speech commemorating the end of Japanese colonial rule.\nTies between Tokyo and its two closest neighbours have been severely strained by both historical issues and separate territorial disputes.\nWhile Washington has been mediating relations between Seoul and Tokyo, tensions between China and Japan remain high.\nMr Abe paid a visit to the shrine in December, prompting a rare US rebuke.\nHe and the Chinese president have not yet held a formal summit, but met on the sidelines of the G20 summit in St Petersburg last year.\nThe two sides are reported to be eyeing a similar meeting at a regional forum later in the year."

The bodies of two men have been found following a rescue operation launched off the Dumfries and Galloway coast.

"The bodies, recovered from the Irish Sea, have yet to be formally identified, but are believed to be those of two men - aged 35 and 46 - who went missing on Saturday.\nThey had been driving a speedboat from Port Logan, possibly to Stranraer.\nPolice Scotland said officers were trying to determine the circumstances surrounding the incident.\nHelicopters, coastguard rescue teams and several lifeboats had been involved in the operation to find the missing speedboat off the Mull of Galloway.\nRescue teams in Wales and Northern Ireland also took part in the search.\nA report was received at 18:15 BST on Saturday that two speedboat drivers had failed to return having set off at 09:00.\nPolice Scotland said the men had launched the speedboat for a leisure trip.\nTwo helicopters and lifeboats searched the water overnight on Saturday, following the boat's known and projected movements.\nAbout 10 teams had been involved in the search and returned to the water on Sunday.\nA coastguard spokeswoman described the search as \"extensive\"."

Plans to prevent the closure of 10 Sheffield libraries by handing control to community groups have been approved.
|
[
"Sheffield City Council's cabinet agreed to set aside £262,000 from public health funds so voluntary groups can bid for cash to help running costs.\nThe idea came after thousands of people objected to council plans to close several of the city's 28 libraries.\nThe authority said it would work with community groups to finalise business plans by June.\nThose libraries are: Broomhill, Ecclesfield, Frecheville, Gleadless, Greenhill, Jordanthorpe, Stannington, Totley, Upperthorpe and Walkley.\nThe council said if groups did not make \"sufficient progress, or fail to submit a business plan to the required standard\" closures would still be needed."
] |
[
"The council is axing 1,300 jobs as it attempts to cut £100m from its budget over three years.\nIts original plans were modified after residents, community groups and partners came forward to help keep some closure-threatened facilities open.\nThe updated proposals will now be considered by the full council for approval on 6 March.\nThe Labour leader of Newcastle City Council, Councillor Nick Forbes, said: \"This has attracted a lot of comment - quite understandably - but I believe it is important to be frank about what the city faces so we can work together in good time to try to find alternatives.\n\"I am proud of the spirited response from our communities which will enable some facilities and services to continue whilst we set about trying to minimise the 1,300 job losses in the council - but no one should be mistaken about the scale of the challenge public services face.\"\nLiberal Democrat opposition leader, Councillor David Faulkner, said the budget process had been dealt with in an \"unprofessional\" manner, and more could have been done to save services.\nThe updated budget plans state that the council will end or reduce funding for seven of its 18 libraries in June.\nA proposal to close two respite centres for people with learning disabilities has been placed on hold. But Cheviot View in Longbenton and Castledene in South Gosforth could still close in 2014.\nThe council said that the city would retain a \"comprehensive\" library service. It remains hopeful that investment will emerge to allow Fenham and Cruddas Park libraries to remain open.\nTalks are also ongoing with groups interested in taking over libraries at Jesmond and High Heaton, but Dinnington, Moorside and Denton Burn will shut their doors in June. Others will close in March 2015 unless a solution can be found.\nCommunity partnerships are also being sought as a means of keeping leisure facilities open.\nThe council had originally proposed a 100% cut to its support for the city's arts and cultural organisations but it has now announced an annual fund of £600,000 to support the sector. It is also proposing a freeze in council tax at current levels for 2013-14."

"Mike Jones, who led Cheshire West & Chester Council until 2015, spent £4,889 on a credit card for travel, food and accommodation, and failed to provide some receipts.\nThe authority's rules state those type of credit card transactions are \"barred\" and receipts must be provided. A police review is also under way.\nMr Jones said he met the rules.\nIn February, council officials announced an internal review of Mr Jones' credit card transactions, after details of his spending were revealed by the Chester Chronicle.\nThe BBC has been told the review will look into why the card was used for \"subsistence, travel and accommodation\", and also why receipts were not provided on 75 occasions, after new rules were introduced in 2013.\nA \"purchase card procedure\" introduced in January 2013 states it \"must not\" be used to pay for food, drinks, travel, parking or accommodation.\nA list of transactions shows Mr Jones' card was used for those purposes between 2010 and 2015, as well as paying for hospitality expenses.\nMr Jones was the only councillor to own a council credit card when he ran the Conservative-led Cheshire West & Chester Council from 2009 until elections in 2015, when Labour gained control.\nHe is now a backbench Conservative councillor for Tattenhall.\nSome of Mike Jones' expenses paid for on his council credit card include:\nIn total, the card was used to spend £2,383 on the \"barred\" categories after the new rules were introduced.\nMr Jones said he was given an exemption allowing him to use his card to pay for parking, adding that some of his transactions may have related to work he carried out for the Local Government Association.\nRecords released under the Freedom of Information Act reveal Mr Jones did not provide receipts for transactions which mostly included parking and rail travel, despite rules saying \"cardholders are required to retain all purchase receipts\".\nHe said: \"In all the cases where receipts are issued I have passed them into the council and if they are missing, unfortunately I have no idea why they have not been recorded.\n\"Expenses and use of the purchase card were properly scrutinised by officers and our audit staff. No such issue was raised with me,\" he said.\nCouncil spokesman Mark Wynn said: \"Councillor Jones, in his role as leader, met with potential external investors with a view to attracting regeneration and development to the borough.\n\"The council has reviewed all the transactions brought to its attention and responded accordingly and is conducting its own internal review.\"\nCheshire Police received a complaint from a former Cheshire West & Chester councillor in February.\nIt said: \"The allegation is currently being reviewed, in order to establish whether any offences may have been committed.\""

The wreck of a German U-boat that sank almost 100 years ago has been discovered by engineers laying subsea power cables.
|
[
"Remarkable sonar images show the missing World War One submarine is largely intact and lying off the Galloway coast.\nExperts believe the vessel could be the UB-85, a sub that sank in 1918, according to official records.\nHowever, naval folklore suggests it may have been attacked by a \"sea monster\".\nThe entire crew of the U-boat is reported to have abandoned ship due to the \"monster attack\".\nOnce aboard the British ship HM Drifter Coreopsis, their commander, Captain Krech described their encounter.\nHe is said to have spoken of a beast with \"large eyes, set in a horny sort of skull…with teeth that could be seen glistening in the moonlight\".\nHe apparently claimed that the sub was so damaged in its battle with the \"monster\", it could no longer submerge.\nHowever, Dr Innes McCartney, a historian and nautical archaeologist who helped identify the wreckage, does not believe the tale.\n\"In reality, the real sea monster was the U-boat, here trying to sink ships,\" he said.\nHe added: \"The submarine was caught on the surface at night, recharging its batteries.\n\"It saw the patrol ship coming. It attempted to do a crash dive to get away.\n\"Once the submarine was under water, it rapidly started flooding from above so they had no option but to blow all the compressed air they had, bring the submarine to the surface at which point all they could do was surrender.\"\nThe historian said tales of sea monsters and haunted U-boats came about due to secrecy surrounding exactly what happened during the first U-boat war which meant that period was \"ripe for conspiracies\".\nHe said the stories were often concocted as a result of journalists and ex-Navy men \"talking late at night, after having a nice time\".\nDr McCartney said there were at least 12 British and German submarines known to have sunk in the Irish Sea.\nHe said: \"The features of this particular wreck, which is largely intact, confirm it as a UBIII-Class submarine, of which we know of two which were lost in the area - the more famous UB-85 and its sister boat UB-82.\n\"While I can conclude that this wreck is likely to be one or the other, they would be practically impossible to tell apart, aside from the numbers painted on them in service, now obviously long gone.\n\"Unless a diver can find a shipyard stamp, we cannot say definitively, but yes, we're certainly closer to solving the so-called mystery of UB-85 and the reason behind its sinking - whether common mechanical failure or something that is less easily explained.\"\nThe historic discovery was made by engineers involved in the £1bn Western Link project to lay a subsea power line between Ayrshire and the Wirral.\nThe 385km (239miles) long cable will carry renewable energy produced in Scotland to England and Wales.\nThe engineers found the wreckage 120m north-west of the centre of the planned route, off the Stranraer coast. It is about 45m long, with debris spilling from the stern.\nGary Campbell, the keeper of the Official Sightings Register of the Loch Ness Monster, said it was \"entirely feasible\" that a large sea creature disabled the submarine.\n\"The World War One report from the captain of the British ship HMS Hilary a year earlier makes it clear that sea farers at that time were well aware of large sea 'monsters' that could be harmful to their ships,\" he said.\n\"The area of sea where the attack took place has a history of sea monster sightings - they have ranged from the north coast of Wales to Liverpool Bay. What the German captain said could well be true.\"\nScottish Power Transmission and the National Grid are working together on the Western Link project to lay the undersea cable.\nPeter Roper, of Scottish Power, said: \"The images we get back from the subsea scans are incredibly detailed, but we obviously need to be aware of what lies beneath before we can start laying a power cable.\n\"In all the years I have been building power lines, I can say that this is the most extraordinary discovery.\"\nNational Grid's Graham Edwards said: \"The Western Link is a very significant project for the UK and has required careful planning in all aspects, but particularly in the laying of high-voltage cables in the sea, where we are working hard to minimise our impact on the environment.\n\"During construction we take great care over archaeology, whether on land or at sea, and it's always exciting to record a significant find and help to shed new light on our history - especially one with such a good tale involved!\""

"The tanks and other equipment were being carried on a landing craft which capsized and lost its cargo as it was heading for the D-Day landings in 1944.\nThey sit on the seabed between the east of the island and Selsey, West Sussex.\nHampshire and Wight Trust for Maritime Archaeology is looking at how land legislation can be applied to the sea.\nThe project has been funded by English Heritage.\nThe charity is working together with Southsea Sub-Aqua Club, which discovered the crafts in 2008, to investigate and chart the site.\nVictoria Millership, from the trust, said it was not just ancient wrecks such as the Mary Rose that should be protected.\n\"The nature of seawater and the underwater environment preserves a lot more material than is often available on land and the things that are under water are often in a better state of preservation.\"\nThe Mark V landing craft tank (LCT) 2428 set off for Normandy on the evening of 5 June 1944 but developed engine trouble in the Channel and was taken under tow by the rescue tug HMS Jaunty.\nOn its way back to Portsmouth the landing craft capsized and lost its cargo.\nHMS Jaunty fired upon the upturned hull until it sank to make sure it did not cause an obstruction. None of the crew were lost.\nThe vessel was carrying two Centaur CS IV tanks, two armoured bulldozers designed to destroy any anti-tank devices on the beach, a jeep and other military equipment for the Royal Marines armoured support group.\nThe lost cargo and the sunken craft created two sites on the seabed 20m (66ft) below the surface.\nThe hull was later located about 6km (3.7 miles) to the east of the vehicle site. Both vessels have been preserved on the sea-floor for more than 60 years.\nHampshire and Wight Trust for Maritime Archaeology hopes the project and case study will lead to better protection for underwater archaeology around England, specifically shipwrecks."

Families of people with learning disabilities and autism say they are planning to take legal action against local authorities and NHS providers over lack of provision in the community.

[
"Debbie Evans is a mother who feels using the law is her last resort.\nHer 24-year-old son Eden has been in institutions for seven years.\nOver a period of five years his weight increased by 16 stone (101kg).\n\"He would say to me, 'You've got to get me out Mummy, you've got to get me out,'\" she said.\nMrs Evans found it difficult to support her son, who has autism and a learning disability, when he lived at home in west London.\nShe said he had no formal education from the age of eight because there was no proper provision for him.\n\"It got really hard with him when he was 14; he hadn't had any education and basically he lashed out at me,\" she said.\n\"It got to the point that I couldn't breathe - it was 24 hours a day seven days a week.\"\nShe sought help and he ended up in an assessment and treatment unit.\nThese are meant to be short stay hospitals where patients are given a plan of care to support them back into the community, but this did not happen in Eden's case.\n\"He's been trapped for seven long years,\" Debbie said.\nEmma Jones is a human rights lawyer from Leigh Day solicitors representing about five families living in England.\nShe believes they have a case to be answered and is exploring avenues for legal action to be taken under the Care Act, the Children's Act and the Human Rights Act.\nShe said: \"In a nutshell, the position we are facing in this country is that there aren't enough community provisions being provided which means that people who no longer meet the criteria to be detained remain locked up because [there is] nowhere else for them to go.\n\"If they're locked up when they shouldn't be locked up they are detained unlawfully and that's a breach of their human rights.\"\nSince the Winterbourne View scandal in 2011, when an undercover Panorama investigation revealed abuse of people with learning disabilities, there has been debate as to the best way to support some of the most vulnerable people in society.\nNumerous reports have been published and NHS England has responded with what is described as a \"far reaching\" plan.\nThe aim is to reduce the number of people in institutional care by up to 50% over the next three years by building up the level of support in the community.\nThere are more than 2,500 people with learning disabilities and autism kept in institutions across England.\nAccording to the latest Learning Disability Census, nearly a third have care plans that clearly state there is no reason for them to receive inpatient care.\nA spokesperson for NHS England said: \"Every case is different and patients' needs are often extremely complex, but we have been clear that hospitals should not be seen as homes.\n\"Where admission is deemed by clinicians to be in their best interest, patients should stay no longer than they need to.\n\"From this month, local areas will begin implementing a plan to ensure that the housing, care and advocacy services become available in each community to provide the high-quality alternatives to hospitals.\"\nThe families of those still in the system say that every minute, every hour is valuable and things have so far, moved far too slowly.\nA social media campaign is due to launch on Monday called \"Seven Days of Action\".\nEach day will see the release of a new story of someone's son, brother, sister or daughter far away from their families.\nThey are doing it, they say, to put a face to the numbers."

"Mencap and the Challenging Behaviour Foundation have spoken of the risks of moving patients hundreds of miles.\nThe warning comes as the results of a serious case review into the abuse of patients at the private hospital near Bristol are due to be released.\nThe abuse was uncovered during secret filming by the BBC Panorama programme.\nEleven people have admitted charges of ill-treatment and neglect related to the abuse.\nSouth Gloucestershire Safeguarding Adults Board (SAB) commissioned the review, carried out by an independent expert.\nMencap and the Challenging Behaviour said they had received 260 reports from families concerning abuse and neglect in institutional care since the Panorama programme was aired in May last year.\nTheir joint report - Out of Sight - detailed a number of serious incidences reported by families, including physical assault, sexual abuse and the overuse of restraint.\nMencap chief executive Mark Goldring said: \"We fear that unless the government commits to a strong action plan to close large institutions and develop appropriate local services for people with a learning disability, there is a very real risk that another Winterbourne View will come to light.\"\nThere are currently hundreds of people with a learning disability in assessment and treatment units like Winterbourne View, the charities said.\nMany of these are located hundreds of miles from home, where people are at particular risk of neglect and abuse, they added.\nVivien Cooper, founder of the Challenging Behaviour Foundation, said they had \"deep concerns\" over patient \"safety and welfare\".\n\"Many hundreds of people with a learning disability are being sent away to care institutions hundreds of miles from home, where they remain for years unnecessarily, at risk of neglect and abuse,\" she said.\nA Department of Health spokeswoman said: \"We are clear that wherever possible people should be supported to live in their own homes within their local community.\n\"In a small number of cases people might need access to good quality assessment and treatment services which might include some short periods of in-patient care.\n\"However this is not a substitute for high quality care within the community.\n\"It is vital all services are commissioned properly, reviewed regularly and not used as a long-term solution.\"\nTwenty-four patients were transferred from Castlebeck-run Winterbourne View, near Hambrook, following the BBC investigation.\nThe hospital was closed the following month.\nThe criminal charges related to five patients at the hospital.\nAll the defendants are awaiting sentence."

What does a sensational scientific discovery about a solar storm in the Earth's magnetic field have to do with old, recycled steel pipes which lay buried for more than a decade under a now-defunct gold mine in India?
|
[
"Almost everything.\nMore than 3,700 such pipes are actually at the heart of a most significant scientific finding.\nA team of Indian and Japanese scientists recently published an internationally-feted paper which recorded the events that unfolded after a breach in the Earth's magnetic shield.\nUsing the GRAPES-3 muon (a sub-atomic particle) telescope - the world's largest of its kind - at the Cosmic Ray Laboratory in Ooty, a hill station in the southern state of Tamil Nadu, the scientists recorded a two-hour burst of galactic cosmic rays that invaded the atmosphere on 22 June 2015.\nThe magnetic field breach was the result of charged particles from the Sun striking the Earth at high speed.\nSolar storms of such high magnitudes can knock out satellites and aircraft autopilots, cause catastrophic power outages, and take us, according to one of the scientists leading the research, Dr Sunil Gupta, \"back to the Stone Age\".\nScientists record breach in magnetic field\nThe world's largest and most sensitive cosmic ray telescope located in Ooty is made up of four-decades old recycled zinc-coated steel pipes.\n\"Necessity is the mother of invention. When you don't have the money to buy new, expensive stuff, you look within the system to find out your own solutions to reduce costs. India's scientists have mastered the art of recycling and coming up with their own inexpensive solutions,\" Pallava Bagla, India correspondent for Science magazine, told me.\nA notable example: India's 2014 operation mission to Mars, cost the exchequer 4.5bn rupees ($67m;£54m), almost 10 times less than the American Maven orbiter. (This prompted Prime Minister Narendra Modi to quip that India's real-life Martian adventure cost less than Hollywood film Gravity.) The Ooty laboratory's annual budget is about $375,000.\nThe 6m (19.65 ft) long pipes, which acted as sensors in the telescope, lay in underground caverns below the centuries-old Kolar Gold Fields in southern Karnataka state, home to one of the world's deepest gold mines, for nearly two-decades.\nThe pipes were imported from Japan - where they are normally used at building construction sites - to help a team of Indian and Japanese scientists examine neutrinos, sub-atomic particles produced in high energy interactions in the galaxy and beyond. The scientists had laid them 2km (1.24 miles) below the earth for their experiment.\nWhen gold prices fell to unprofitable levels and the fields began shutting down in the early 1990s, authorities planned to remove the pipes and dispose them off as scrap. \"We said we want to re-use them for our experiments,\" Dr Gupta told me.\nEventually, some 7,500 of the pipes were transported by truck to a hilly 100-acre campus that the laboratory shares with a radio astronomy centre. The place skirts a forest populated by deer, bison, tigers and wild boars. Recently, CCTV cameras captured a tiger strolling past the sensors at night.\nWork on recording cosmic rays in Ooty began in right earnest in 1998, when the scientists began making muon sensors from the discarded pipes to research high energy cosmic rays.\nToday, 3,712 steel tubes, stacked up against layers of concrete, are housed across 560 sq m in four squat brown-and-white colour buildings, home to the world's largest such muon telescope. There are a couple of dozen such telescopes in the world, but none as powerful as the one in Ooty.\nAt the laboratory, a small group of scientists and assorted helpers - local gardeners and carpenters, for example - continue to recycle the old pipes, so that they can be used as cosmic ray detectors.\nTo do this, they open the pipes and clean them with high pressure water jets. They insert a 100 micron - as thick as a strand of human hair - tungsten wire into the pipe and anchor it at both ends with hermetic seals. The pipes are then filled with a gas comprising methane and argon and an electric potential run through it to enable it to become an effective sensor.\nFinally, they are laid out in rows - below two metres of concrete, which act as absorbers - to become a muon telescope.\nThe fabled jugaad - an Indian colloquial word that means ingenious improvisation in the face of scarce resources - extends to using the pipes as sensors.\nWhen the scientists at the laboratory wanted to make doubly sure that the old pipes were not leaking, they modified a helium spray gun by attaching a 7-cent injection syringe needle to the nozzle of the gas jet to help them to carry out the precise leak tests.\n\"Every day, we make 10 such recycled pipes ready for our experiments. The plan was to make very sensitive sensors to detect the weakest of signals. We wanted to measure cosmic rays with higher sensitivity than ever done before\", says Atul Jain, a scientist at the facility.\nThe laboratory itself is a shining example of home-grown innovation. The majority of the electronic equipment is designed, assembled and manufactured in-house. The software for the computer programmes is locally made.\nThe 40GB of raw data from cosmic rays that it generates every day is stored and processed by a cluster of computers which has been largely assembled in-house, cutting costs and saving hefty maintenance fees. Old computers are stripped for parts. A locally developed cooling system using fans saves electricity and protects the computers.\nAt the moment, the scientists plan to pore over 17 years of data on cosmic rays recorded by the lab's sensors to find out whether they offer more clues about forecasting space weather and advance warnings about solar flares. They say there have been some 38 severe solar storms in the past 17 years.\n\"We should be able to sift through our data to find out more about them. For us, they are a gift from the Sun, because they add to our knowledge on space weather,\" says Dr Gupta."

"It's an image that still haunts police officer Deputy Douglas Duvall who, on the evening of 28 February 2013, responded to an emergency call in the suburban calm of Tampa, and found himself face to face with the Florida underworld.\nInside a detached bungalow, the ground had opened and swallowed the sleeping body and the bed of 37 year-old Jeff Bush.\nHis brother Jeremy was frantically trying to dig him out, but Jeff's body was sucked into the depths and never found.\nHorizon: Swallowed by a Sinkhole\nDriveway sinkhole woman 'lucky'\nOnly the efforts of first responder Douglas Duvall hauling Jeremy out of the churning pit prevented a second tragedy.\nThe natural trapdoor that opened up and claimed the life of Jeff Bush is called a \"sinkhole\". It is far from the only case.\nIn the last few years, vast sinkholes have appeared overnight from as far afield as China and Guatemala, but it's Florida where the fear is greatest.\nJust last August, a resort complex near Disney World collapsed into a huge 20m hole.\nIt was to investigate this devastating phenomenon that I travelled to Florida to try to understand what caused the sinkhole that killed Jeff, and why the geology of this state makes it the sinkhole capital of the world.\nIt's possible to explore some of these natural shafts and descend within the voids beneath, at places like Ladder Cave in Citrus County.\nHere you can see how acid-tinged rain and ground water slowly eats away at limestone bedrock below, producing cavities in the subsurface.\nOften, surface sand and mud gets washed into these to fashion a pockmarked landscape of pits and depressions which we call karst.\nThe trouble is, sometimes, the subterranean world of caves and caverns break through the surface cover to drag down whatever lies above.\nThese \"cover-collapse\" sinkholes are the deadly threat that lurks in the Florida underworld.\nInvestigations revealed that a cover-collapse sinkhole had lain directly beneath Jeff Bush's bedroom.\nBill Bracken, the structural engineer who worked with the emergency workers at Jeff's house, showed me the footage that he took from within the hole that fateful night.\nIt makes chilling viewing. When it opened and soil began to fall inward, a suction force was exerted on the concrete floor above, eventually wrenching it down along with everything in that room.\nSinkhole collapses are pretty commonplace across Florida. Virtually the whole of the Sunshine state, from the Keys in the south to the border with Georgia in the north, is a vast limestone platform that is flushed with groundwater below and has a humid climate that rains down plenty from above.\nThat water keeps the lawns green, fills the swimming pools and provides drinking water for millions. But the waters are also consuming Florida's soluble limestone foundations.\nThe result is a state collapsing in on itself. Amid the city streets, quiet suburbs and citrus groves, holes are often opening up to reveal a new hidden Florida.\nResidents are, understandably, nervous about the Florida concealed beneath. As soon as any cracks appear in their buildings, nervous homeowners call in geotechnical experts.\nOver 6,500 sinkhole insurance claims are reported each year. All of which makes Florida's sinkholes a boom for lawyers and geologists.\nWhat is not commonplace are sinkhole tragedies. Jeff Bush's death is Florida's first fatal sinkhole collapse in decades.\nHis suburban district of Seffner lies in a sinkhole \"sweetspot\" - a cluster of collapses pepper the west central part of the state around the city of Tampa.\nHis death has created unease among the sedate, retiring gated communities of west Florida. Because the sinkhole scourge is on the rise.\nQuite why sinkholes are becoming ever more prominent in Florida is uncertain. Their triggers are enigmatic, though the fact that there is a \"sinkhole season\" suggests that Florida's climate has something to do with it.\nIn the summer months, the Gulf Coast's hurricanes deluge the state, dumping tonnes of water on the land over a matter of hours, weighing down the soil and collapsing the roofs of caves below.\nIn the dry season, drought conditions can lower the water table, reducing pressure in water-filled voids and causing their unsupported sides to implode.\nDramatic changes to the Floridian water table can also come from another more surprising source. The state's warm, wet weather and fertile soil cover has made it ideal for agriculture, and makes it, alongside California, the fruit basket of America.\nIts famous citrus groves and fruit fields are irrigated in part from groundwater drawn from Florida's underground aquifer.\nUnlike the year-round warmth of California, the winter months in Florida can be cold and its fruit, particularly its vast strawberry crop, is prone to frost damage.\nSo when sudden cold snaps strike, farmers respond with an intense spraying of warm groundwater onto the strawberry fields.\nThis aggressive groundwater pumping, however, can drop aquifer levels by tens of metres overnight. When this has happened in the past, large numbers of sinkhole collapses have occurred.\nThere is no evidence that groundwater pumping for agriculture was the trigger for last year's lethal collapse in Seffner.\nHowever, it is a reminder of the growing human pressures that are being placed on Florida's natural support system.\nThe lure of the Florida sun is drawing ever more people to the state, and our urban sprawl is advancing into wild land primed with lethal sinkhole traps. In the past, they would have gone unnoticed. But not now.\nSo, in a way, the real reason for Florida's growing toll of sinkhole damage is ourselves.\nHorizon: Swallowed By A Sinkhole is on BBC2 at 9pm on Monday 3 February"

The vice-chair of pro-Corbyn group Momentum is under pressure to quit over allegations of anti-Semitism.

[
"Jackie Walker has faced criticism over comments made on social media and at an anti-Semitism training event.\nThe TSSA union says it will \"seriously reconsider\" its support for Momentum if Ms Walker remains in place and the group says its steering committee will meet on Monday to seek her removal.\nShe told Channel 4: \"I certainly wouldn't call myself an anti-Semite.\"\n\"I'm Jewish and my partner is Jewish.\"\nBut a spokesman for Momentum, the left-wing grassroots organisation set up in wake of Jeremy Corbyn's 2015 election as Labour leader, said: \"Members of Momentum's steering committee are seeking to remove Jackie Walker as vice-chair of the committee.\"\nMs Walker was suspended by the Labour over comments made on social media in which she claimed that \"many Jews (my ancestors too) were the chief financiers of the sugar and slave trade\" but was re-admitted following an investigation.\nBut a leaked video emerged on Wednesday of her saying she had not found a definition of anti-Semitism she could work with, and questioning why Holocaust Memorial Day was not more wide ranging, at an anti-Semitism training event.\nManuel Cortes, general secretary of the TSSA union, which backed Momentum and Jeremy Corbyn's leadership, said on Thursday he was \"deeply saddened that a fellow member of our Labour and trade union family holds such anti-Semitic views\" and said she should not be allowed to \"remain active within our party\".\n\"I am asking Jackie that in the interests of unity she resigns at once from our party and also as vice-chair of Momentum.\n\"If she doesn't, both the Labour Party and Momentum need to act to get rid of her at once. We would seriously need to consider our union's support for Momentum if she is still in post by this time next week.\"\nIn an interview with Channel 4 News, Ms Walker said she had not intended to offend anyone. Asked whether she had thought about resigning, given criticism from some Jewish groups, she said: \"Some other prominent Jewish groups, of which I'm a member, think a very different thing.\n\"What we have to look at when we're talking about this subject, particularly at the moment, is the political differences that are underlying this as well.\"\nWhoever leaked the video \"had malicious intent in their mind\", she said. Ms Walker said she was anti-Zionist, rather than anti-Semitic: \"Zionism is a political ideology and like any political ideology, some people will be supportive and some people won't be supportive of it.\"\nWhat's the difference between anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism?\nMs Walker previously had support from six Jewish Labour activists who issued a statement saying she had been subject to a witch hunt.\nLabour Leader Jeremy Corbyn has denied there was a \"crisis\" in the party amid accusations of anti-Semitism in its ranks.\nLabour MP Naz Shah and former Mayor of London Ken Livingstone were among those to be suspended over allegations of anti-Semitism.\nA review of the issue of racism in Labour, led by former Liberty director Shami Chakrabarti, found the party \"is not overrun by anti-Semitism, Islamophobia or other forms of racism\".\nBut the report was criticised by Jewish leaders and MPs, who said its credibility was undermined because Ms Chakrabarti was nominated for a peerage by Labour just weeks after its release."

"Edinburgh: Mapping the City brings together 71 maps, including the earliest known map of Edinburgh which was drafted around 1530 by exiled Scottish Lutheran theologian Alexander Allane.\nThe earliest detailed map of the Lothians was printed around 1610 in Amsterdam, from the pioneering survey of Scotland by Timothy Pont.\nIt lists many tower houses and farms whose names live on in Edinburgh today, as the city has grown to include them.\nAnother map contained in the collection shows the arrival of the main railways into Edinburgh in the 1840s.\nThe map below, from 1851, by W & AK Johnston, shows the \"Joint Railway Station\" that would become Waverley.\nIt is a fraction of its later size and includes the Edinburgh, Leith and Granton Railway leaving to the north through the Scotland Street tunnel.\nThe next map shows the distribution of tuberculosis cases recorded in 1892.\nIt shows marked concentrations in poorer, high-density housing in the Old Town.\nDr Robert Philip, who recorded these cases, would go on to set up the influential Edinburgh Anti-Tuberculosis Scheme.\nThe book also includes this snapshot of the city centre's drinking dens from 1923, produced by the temperance movement in an attempt to limit the number of licensed premises.\nChris Fleet, map curator at the National Library of Scotland, has produced the book with Daniel MacCannell.\nMr Fleet said: \"Today we may think of maps as tools to get us from one place to another but they are important historical documents in themselves.\n\"They can show how people's lives have changed over time and how the city has been adapted around them.\"\nHe added: \"Edinburgh: Mapping the City is an anthology of historic maps which have been specially selected for the particular stories they reveal.\n\"It provides many surprises and we hope people will find it an accessible, enjoyable, attractive and browsable history of Edinburgh as seen through maps.\"\nThe book is published by Birlinn, in association with the National Library of Scotland.\nOne of the more unusual entries is a Soviet army map of Edinburgh from 1983, intended for use by Soviet commanders in the event of an invasion of Scotland.\nIt is colour coded for different buildings - military in green, administrative in purple, industrial in black and residential in brown.\nThis confidential map has text in Cyrillic and includes significantly more information about Edinburgh than Ordnance Survey maps.\nIt would have been perfect for planning a tank invasion.\nThe book also contains a map used to measure the speed of sound from the firing of the One o'clock gun on Edinburgh castle in 1879."

Hundreds of people in a former steel-making town became directors of companies involved in pornography, dating, diets and travel, a Reuters investigation has revealed.
|
[
"Residents in Consett, County Durham, were paid to forward post that came to their address, but said they otherwise had no involvement in the companies.\nOne, John Mawson, said he \"didn't really know\" what his role involved.\nSimon Dowson, who set up the legal firms, said everyone was informed.\nMr Dowson, 35, from Shotley Bridge formed the shell entities to provide a UK address, directors, company records and tax returns to meet UK requirements so overseas online businesses could trade in Europe.\nThese were businesses considered by credit card companies to be at high risk of refund requests.\nThe investigation by the Reuters news agency found at least 429 unconnected people in the town were paid £50 cash to become directors, with a further £150 a year for forwarding company mail and fees for extra paperwork.\nMr Mawson, 61, was recruited by a neighbour who had already signed up.\n\"All we were told was that we would just get letters sent and all we had to do was hand them on,\" he told BBC Newcastle.\n\"Money was rather tight. All we wanted was a bit of extra cash.\"\nAnother director, Andrew McBride, 46, said he did not realise what he had agreed to, but accepted he should have checked further.\nMr Dowson was paid between £2,500 and £3,000 per shell company, administering 1,200 at his peak.\nUsing unconnected individuals as directors prevented \"cross contamination\" if credit card companies withdrew services from one company, he said.\n\"It's a very simple operation. It's commonplace. It's just not commonplace here,\" he said.\nMr Dowson said the directors were given information about the companies, their role and any documents they had to sign.\n\"There was nobody ever kept in the dark,\" he said.\nMr Mawson only found out a few years ago that one of his directorships involved pornography sites and wanted \"nothing more to do\" with the arrangement.\nMr Dowson said the overseas companies' trade included travel, bingo and \"vanilla\" dating sites, not just adult entertainment.\nHe has been investigated by the Insolvency Service, part of what is now the government's Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, he said.\nSome of the firms using his service have also been investigated, and some closed down, but there have been no criminal charges or sanctions brought against Mr Dowson or any of the directors.\nHe was told what he had been doing was \"incorrect or maybe not best practice\" but \"not illegal in any way, shape or form\", he said.\nHe has agreed to stop using untrained people as directors and said his company formation business would soon close.\nThe government declined Reuters' request for comment."

"The figures suggest a shift in profile of fraudsters from rogue executives to younger people funding extravagant lifestyles, said the researchers.\nOverall, however, there was a 39% drop in fraud during the period to £317m.\nThe decline was helped in large part by a 72% drop in frauds committed by those aged 46 and over, to £88m.\nAccording to the research, more than 400 people were conned into handing over sums ranging from £20,000 to £2m, yet their funds were used to purchase a Lamborghini and 5-bedroom house with a swimming pool among other things.\nIn one case a 30-year-old man convinced his victims to invest in vintage wine, which they believed would increase in value.\n\"Where once it was the jaded executive who relied on unquestioned seniority and authority to get away with dipping their hands in the till, it seems we are witnessing a changing of the guard,\" said Hitesh Patel, UK forensic partner at KPMG.\n\"Today's fraudster is younger and just at ease with using technology and data as selling promises,\" he said.\nAnother case involved a crooked financial adviser who bought a fleet of supercars, invested in a racehorse and sponsored two Premier League football clubs with the proceeds of his con artistry.\nHis scam involved the creation of a bogus investment fund for which he persuaded investors to hand over large cash sums, which he simply spent.\nOne victim was so convinced that he parted with £3.7m, none of which has been recovered."

France edged to an unconvincing win over Italy to make a successful start to their Six Nations campaign.
|
[
"Media playback is not supported on this device\nIn a tight first half Virimi Vakatawa and Damien Chouly crossed for France, but a Carlo Canna drop-goal and Sergio Parisse's try kept Italy in touch.\nCanna finished off a burst by Parisse to put the visitors in the ascendancy.\nFrance retook the initiative with Hugo Bonneval's score, but they still needed a late penalty from Jules Plisson to hand a win to new coach Guy Noves.\nThis was first sporting event held at the Stade de France since the attacks on Paris in November last year.\nFormer Toulouse boss Noves, 62, had promised to build a more entertaining French side from the one that went out in the quarter-finals of last year's World Cup and finished a disappointing fourth in the 2015 Six Nations.\nThere was certainly a sense of adventure about Noves's side, personified by powerful sevens international Vakatawa who showed guile and fleet of foot on the wing to score the opening try.\nGael Fickou's quick-tap penalty opened the door for Chouly to cross for their second and Jonathan Danty drew in defenders expertly to release Bonneval for the third, but there remained a fragility to the home side.\nItaly, inspired by their captain Parisse, almost took full advantage with a structured, organised performance, in which they won seven turnovers to France's three.\nParisse, who plays his club rugby in Paris with Stade Francais, has for so long been Italy's talisman and the number eight stepped even closer to legendary status for his country with this all-action performance.\nThe 32-year-old touched down from a catch and drive in the first half and came agonisingly close to finishing off a barnstorming burst after the break, before Canna applied the finishing touch regardless.\nIn fact, he almost snatched it at the death with an audacious drop-goal attempt that drifted wide, but in the end it was Plisson's monster penalty from near the halfway line that ended up being the difference maker.\nFrance: Medard; Bonneval, Fickou, Danty, Vakatawa; Plisson, Bezy; Ben Arous, Guirado, Slimani, Jedrasiak, Maestri, Lauret, Chouly, Picamoles.\nReplacements: Doussain for Medard (77), Mermoz for Fickou (56), Atonio for Ben Arous (50), Poirot for Slimani (50), Flanquart for Jedrasiak (72).\nNot used: Chat, Camara, Machenaud.\nItaly: Odiete; L. Sarto, Campagnaro, Garcia, Bellini; Canna, Gori; Lovotti, Gega, Cittadini, Biagi, Fuser, Minto, Zanni, Parisse.\nReplacements: McLean for Odiete (55), Haimona for Garcia (70), Palazzani for Canna (77), Zanusso for Lovotti (65), Giazzon for Gega (56), Castrogiovanni for Cittadini (65), Bernabo for Biagi (43), van Schalkwyk for Zanni (66).\nReferee: JP Doyle (England)"

Those hoping to become the first mayor of the Liverpool City Region have less than a month remaining in which to secure your vote.
|
[
"Liverpool City Region, in case you were wondering, includes Merseyside's five councils (Knowsley, Liverpool, Sefton, St Helens, and Wirral) as well as Halton in Cheshire.\nWho are the eight candidates desperate for your support on 4 May, though, and what are their priorities?\nBBC Radio Merseyside's political reporter Claire Hamilton has produced a potted biography for each of them.\nWe're also asking all of them for a \"minute manifesto\" video.\nCandidates are listed below in alphabetical order\nRoger Bannister, Trade Union & Socialist Coalition\nVeteran trade unionist Roger Bannister believes the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority should never have approved the contract for a fleet of new driver-only Merseyrail trains. He says he would seek to reverse this decision. He also believes local authorities have passed harmful austerity budgets on people struggling to make ends meet. He stood for Liverpool city mayor in 2016, coming fourth with 5% of the vote.\nPaul Breen, Get the Coppers off the Jury\nPaul Breen is a resident of Norris Green, Liverpool and became the last candidate to be nominated. He is listed as treasurer of the party on the Electoral Commission's website, with Patricia Breen listed as deputy treasurer. He has not yet released any material detailing his manifesto but told the BBC the title of his campaign speaks for itself. He simply does not believe that police officers should be allowed to serve on juries.\nMr Breen declined to provide a \"minute manifesto\"\nTony Caldeira, Conservative\nBorn in Liverpool and educated in St Helens, Tony Caldeira started out working on a stall selling cushions made by his mother at Liverpool's Great Homer Street market. His business expanded and now operates in Kirkby, distributing world-wide. Mr Caldeira has stood for Liverpool mayor twice, coming sixth in 2016 with just under 4% of the vote. He has pledged to improve the area's transport network, speed up the planning process and build homes and workplaces on brownfield sites rather than green spaces.\nCarl Cashman, Liberal Democrats\nBorn in Whiston, Knowsley, Carl Cashman is leader of the Liberal Democrat group on Knowsley Council. He and his two Lib Dem council colleagues were elected in 2016, breaking a four-year period when Labour was the only party represented. Aged 25, he's the youngest of the candidates. Mr Cashman believes maintaining strong ties with Europe and the region will be key, and has pledged to open a Liverpool City Region embassy in Brussels. He also wants to better integrate ticketing across public transport and make the current Walrus card more similar to the Oyster card used by Londoners.\nTom Crone, Green Party\nTom Crone is leader of the Green group on Liverpool City Council. He won 10% of the vote in the mayoral elections in Liverpool in 2016 and came third. Originally from Norwich, he has lived in Liverpool since 2000 after arriving as a student. Mr Crone is keen to see a shift away from traditional heavy industry in the city region towards greener \"tech\" industries. He's also passionate about making public transport more affordable and environmentally friendly. He says he'll look to prioritise new routes for cyclists and pedestrians.\nTabitha Morton, Women's Equality Party\nTabitha Morton was born in Netherton, Sefton. She left school with no formal qualifications, and started work at 16 at a local market, and later in cleaning. She was taken on for NVQ training by a company in Liverpool, and stayed on to train others. She now works for a global manufacturer, in what she describes as \"a male-dominated industry\". She says she would prioritise grants for employers offering equal apprenticeships for young women and men and ring-fence funds for training women in sectors in which they're underrepresented.\nSteve Rotheram, Labour\nBorn in Kirkby, former bricklayer Steve Rotheram was a city councillor in Liverpool and also Lord Mayor during the city's European Capital of Culture year in 2008. He was also elected MP for Liverpool Walton in 2010, and re-elected to the seat in 2015. Mr Rotheram is pledging to cut the cost of the fast tag for motorists driving through the Mersey tunnels. He wants to improve education and offer better careers advice for young people, and also wants to make brownfield sites more attractive to developers.\nPaula Walters, UKIP\nWallasey-born Paula Walters is chairman of UKIP in Wirral and lives in New Brighton with her family. She has campaigned to scrap tunnel tolls for several years. She says her local UKIP branch is one of the most thriving in the North West. A civil servant, she studied English and biomolecular science at degree-level. She has also lived in South Africa where she attended the University of Pretoria. She believes Liverpool city centre has attracted money at the expense of outlying areas, one of the things she wants to tackle."

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger says he will feel "less guilt" if his side get a tough draw in the Champions League last 16 after they topped Group A.
|
[
"Media playback is not supported on this device\nThe Gunners have exited at the first knockout stage for the past six years, having finished second in their group in five of those campaigns.\nBut they topped their section thanks to a 4-1 win in Basel and Ludogorets' shock 2-2 draw at Paris St-Germain.\n\"We wanted to do our job and got lucky with the PSG result,\" Wenger said.\nArsenal will avoid Monaco and Barcelona, who eliminated them in 2015 and 2016 respectively, as well as Atletico Madrid and Napoli in Monday's draw.\nHowever, teams they could still be paired with include Bayern Munich, who knocked them out in 2013 and 2014, and one of Borussia Dortmund or Real Madrid.\n\"We can still have a difficult draw,\" said Wenger. \"But there's less guilt when you finish first in the group because you feel you have done your job and you play the second leg of the first knockout tie at home.\n\"It is what we wanted but, at the moment, the difficulty of the draw will not be much different.\"\nArsenal's win in Switzerland came thanks to a Lucas Perez hat-trick, the Spaniard more than doubling his Gunners goal tally after making a £17m move from Deportivo La Coruna in August.\nHe twice tapped into an empty net, and got his third with a neat finish from just inside the 18-yard box.\n\"The first two were quite easy goals, created by the team,\" said Wenger. \"But the third goal is a real striker's goal.\n\"He scored over 20 goals in Spain last year and tonight he showed why. He has a real eye for goal.\"\nBBC Sport chief football writer Phil McNulty\nArsenal's success in topping their group is a tribute to their growing resilience, which saw them draw home and away to PSG in games where they were forced to suffer and battle for long periods.\nThey also showed the swagger when they needed it to ruthlessly put Basel away to fulfil their side of the bargain while Ludogorets delivered the big favour in Paris.\nThe different facets the Gunners have shown in coming out on top of the group suggests increasing maturity in Arsene Wenger's team and more justification for his belief they can make their mark in the Champions League this season.\nThe Guardian, Metro, Daily Star and I newspapers all led with Arsenal on their Wednesday back pages."

"The 26-year-old limped out of the 1-1 draw at Carrow Road at the weekend.\nBoss Arsene Wenger defended Sanchez's selection, despite him suffering \"a little hamstring alarm\" in last week's Champions League over Dinamo Zagreb.\nArsenal also lost Laurent Koscielny and Santi Cazorla on Sunday, adding to a lengthy list of injured players.\nDefensive midfielder Francis Coquelin is expected to be out for three months after suffering ligament damage, while Jack Wilshere, Tomas Rosicky and Mikel Arteta are also out.\nIn addition, strikers Theo Walcott and Danny Welbeck are currently sidelined.\nThe Gunners face Sunderland in the Premier League on Saturday, followed on Wednesday by a crunch last Champions League group game in Athens against Olympiakos, which they need to win by two goals, or a high-scoring one-goal margin, to reach the last 16.\nSunday's result meant Wenger's side missed out on the chance to draw level on points with Manchester City at the top of the Premier League."

"\"When I came here as a student nine years ago I felt that I had come into a very multicultural society and really wanted to be part of it.\n\"I miss the food in Morocco and being around people who have known me my whole life, but London is my home now. My closest friends from university and from Morocco live here now, my values align more with London and I love being in a very multicultural environment where you get to meet people from all ends of the world.\"\n\"Although I left Ireland 57 years ago, I still regard this country as my home. My family has moved back and I miss them. They're part of my identity.\n\"Family is my community and has structured who I am.\"\n\"It's interesting the opportunity that moving home has given me to start over and edit my story and identity in fresh and exciting ways.\n\"I have moved about four or five times in my life; I've lived in countries in Africa, Asia and now, Europe. Flowers at my bedside, warmth, the smell of garlic and a sense of familiarity and light jazz music - that is home. A place of comfort, safety and beauty and a non-judgemental space where you can stare at the ceiling and know it's OK.\"\n\"What makes me feel comfortable here is that I can sleep in peace. I can walk alone at night with my handbag. There is no dust, no insects. Food, shelter and security are abundant.\"\n\"Getting to know a new place, learning a new language, landing a job, making new friends… these are processes that everyone goes through. It's just a matter of time before you start feeling at home.\"\n\"My father sought asylum in the UK after the Iranian revolution. This country welcomed him with open arms. Community here is about listening to each other's stories and treating each other with compassion and respect. I hope you find the same things here when you arrive.\"\n\"I love the diversity in London. When I'm on the bus - hearing different languages, seeing different faces - that richness is one of the things I find most beautiful about London.\n\"Welcome to the UK. I hope you find friends, safety, a community for yourself and become part of this tapestry of London life.\"\n\"My move to the UK from a village in Pakistan was a huge culture shock. My teacher was very helpful. She became another mother to me and encouraged me to work hard. I didn't even know how to write an essay, yet she gave me the courage to achieve. She made me realise that anything is possible.\n\"We who come from a Third World country often feel like we can't compete but we have all the abilities to accomplish our dreams.\"\n\"Moving from Turkey at a young age, I was excited to experience England. This ability here to experience two different cultures and feel safe in both - has made me feel like a global citizen.\n\"As an academic I am connected to friends and colleagues from all over the world and being part of this one global community is an honour and a privilege. I hope one day everyone can have this feeling of inclusion and belonging.\"\n\"We met when we were doing our master's degrees and are still friends. Don't believe the media narrative about people's perceptions of refugees and migrants. The average person on the street is friendly and accepting, and the UK is a very diverse place.\n\"Most people here are open and interested in who you are. Be yourself and, if you feel like it, share your stories.\"\n\"My grandfather came here just after World War Two, invited by Her Majesty to come and rebuild the country. He is now 90 years old, has five children, 12 grandchildren, and six great-grandchildren.\n\"When he arrived he worked in a factory making nuts and bolts to rebuild the East End. He realised that the food he was used to from India was not available, so he decided to do something about it and opened a shop to sell homemade food. The best thing you can do is to bring your food and recipes here. The UK loves food. We want to welcome you with food. Let's share some recipes.\"\n\"There is no one way to be a part of British society. The people here have so much heart and joy and wonder. People here will help connect you to the community. Being in Britain doesn't mean telling each other how to be, but sharing who you are with others.\n\"With shared experiences, we avoid misunderstandings and judgement, and we build a community together.\""

With this in mind, I continued to find people who wouldn't necessarily fall into the broad term immigrant.\"\nHis pictures are simply captioned.\n\"The identities of the sitters is not revealed, just the countries their families lived in before their arrival here in Northern Ireland,\" adds Baucher.\n\"These images are just a very small sample of the complex demographic of Northern Ireland yet hold truths for us all.\"\nThe pictures are part of Belfast's Imagine: Festival of Ideas and Politics and are on show at the Framewerk Gallery in Belfast until 19 March.\nYou can see an earlier piece I wrote on John Baucher's Through the Viewfinder work here."

The doctor who attacked his former New York hospital workplace had resigned in 2015 after being accused of sexual harassment, reports said.

"Henry Bello had also been convicted of sexual assault a decade earlier, the New York Times reported.\nHe opened fire with an assault rifle in the Bronx-Lebanon hospital, killing a female doctor and injuring six other people, five of them seriously.\nHe then shot himself after attempting to set himself on fire, police said.\nSome New York newspapers quoted a doctor at the hospital as saying Bello had vowed revenge on his colleagues after he left.\n\"We fired him because he was kind of crazy,\" Dr Maureen Kwankam told the New York Daily News newspaper. \"He promised to come back and kill us then.\"\nIn 2004 Bello was charged with sexual abuse and unlawful imprisonment after a 23-year-old woman said he had grabbed her crotch outside a Manhattan building, the New York Times reported.\nBello walked into the 1,000-bed hospital at about 14:55 local time (18:55 GMT) with an assault rifle hidden inside his white medical coat, reports said.\nMayor Bill de Blasio said the attack had been a \"horrific situation in the middle of a place that people associate with care and comfort\".\nSeveral of the injured are \"fighting for their lives,\" he said.\nThe attack began on the 16th floor and all the victims were shot on the 16th and 17th floors.\nAn assault rifle was also discovered nearby, which a local politician separately said appeared to be a military-grade M16 rifle.\nMessages on social media spoke of doctors and nurses barricading themselves inside the building in the Mount Hope district.\nOne patient in the radiology department, Felix Puno, tweeted: \"Building is in complete shut down, I was in the middle of getting an X-ray when security alerted us to the active shooter situation.\"\nGarry Trimble, whose fiancée works at the hospital, said security was not good enough.\nHe said: \"I can walk through the back door with an employee. If the employee opens the door, I can walk in. I think every hospital should have one police officer at each entrance. They only ever do something when something happens.\"\nBronx-Lebanon is a private, not-for-profit hospital that has been operating for 120 years.\nShootings at hospitals are not common, but there have been several such instances in recent years.\nIn 2015, a man entered a Boston hospital and asked for a cardiologist by name, shooting him dead when he arrived. During the investigation, it emerged that the man's mother had previously been a patient at the hospital.\nIn July 2016, another man opened fire in a patient's room at a Florida medical centre, killing an elderly woman and a hospital worker. The suspect was later deemed to suffer from mental health issues, casting doubt over his competency to stand trial.\nIn July last year, a patient at a Berlin hospital shot a doctor before turning the gun on himself. The city had also seen a shooting outside another hospital earlier in the year, in which no-one was killed."

He made no statement at the hearing.\nMr Cook has been suspended by the university and banned from campus."

"Gladys Hooper, from Ryde on the Isle of Wight, became the country's oldest person on Thursday following the death of Ethel Lang, who was 114.\nMrs Hooper is the UK's most senior supercentenarian according to the Gerontology Research Group records.\nOn learning of her achievement, she said: \"I am surprised, I thought I was just the oldest person on the island.\"\nMrs Hooper, who has four grandchildren and six great grandchildren, was born in the same year as the Wright brothers invented the first aeroplane.\nAsked about the secret of her longevity, she said: \"I have always been busy, I prefer being busy than being idle, that's what I don't like about now, I can't get about like I used to.\n\"I have always lived a straight life, never done stupid things. I have never gone beyond the limit, always been active. I think always being active keeps you young.\n\"I have done what I wanted to do and helped others as much as I could.\n\"I do not feel anything like the age I am, I do not feel any different to when I was 70,\" Mrs Hooper said.\nBorn in Dulwich, south east London on 18 January 1903 she was the oldest, and now the only surviving member, of six siblings - five girls and one boy.\nShe was brought up in Rottingdean, east Sussex and went on to become a concert pianist before starting a car hire business in the 1920s.\nShe later ran Kingscliff House School, which is now Brighton College.\nAfter being widowed in 1977 she moved to the Isle of Wight two years later to be near her son Derek Hermiston, an 84-year-old retired pilot.\nMembers of Mrs Hooper's family travelled from across the UK and as far away as British Columbia to be with Gladys for her big day."

The promise of more powers for Holyrood made little difference to the outcome of the independence referendum, according to a new report.
|
[
"Academics from Edinburgh and Essex universities commissioned a survey of several thousand voters.\nThe results indicated that just 3.4% of \"No\" voters saw \"The Vow\" as the main motivation for their decision.\nA spokesman for the SNP said polling immediately after the September vote produced a different result.\nThe new research by the Centre on Constitutional Change found the biggest factor identified by opponents of independence in making their decision was \"feeling British/believe in the Union\", cited by 29.5%.\nOther factors highlighted included:\nFactors identified by Yes voters in explaining their defeat included:\nReport co-author Ailsa Henderson, of the University of Edinburgh, said: \"There is clearly a divergence between the perception among Yes voters that the offer of more powers was an important aspect of the campaign and reality of how No voters reached their decision.\n\"The issue of 'more powers' is not cited as the main reason for voting No.\n\"However, Yes voters are convinced it caused a loss of nerve leading to support for the Union.\"\nHer colleague Dr Rob Johns, of the University of Essex, added: \"The trajectory of opinion during the campaign suggests that the drift back to No predated the famous 'Vow' on the Daily Record's front cover.\n\"It is not unusual for a misleading narrative to develop about what swung an election or referendum. According to our data, anyone who thinks 'it was the Vow wot won it' is exaggerating, to say the least.\n\"However, once these narratives develop, they can be hard to shift. We may well see the effect of this one when voters turn out for the general election in May.\"\nYouGov questioned 4,849 people between 22 August and 17 September, 2014. They surveyed another 3,719 people from 22 to 26 September.\nScottish Conservative chief whip John Lamont said: \"All three pro-UK parties came up with plans for a more powerful Scottish Parliament before the referendum and, whoever is in power after the general election, those powers will be delivered to make Holyrood a more responsible and accountable parliament.\n\"Contrary to Alex Salmond's bluster, we have all been good to our word on delivering these powers.\"\nA Scottish Labour spokesman commented: \"While it is interesting to carry out these academic exercises, at the end of the day a substantial majority of the electorate voted to stay part of the UK.\"\nA spokesman for the SNP said: \"While we were disappointed with the result of the referendum, this study shows that a clear legacy has been greater political involvement, particularly amongst young people, and that is something to be proud of.\n\"Polling conducted immediately after the referendum showed that a quarter of No voters regarded the promise of extra powers as important in informing their decision - and nearly 10% of No voters only made up their mind in the last week.\n\"Undoubtedly, the Westminster parties published the Vow because all of their information indicated that it would have a big impact on the result.\""

"The constitution is a matter \"reserved\" to Westminster, so as with the referendum last year the Scottish government would need the UK Parliament's approval to hold one.\nHowever, unlike last time, the UK government might not feel bound to allow a vote.\nParliament in London might say that the matter was recently settled and that it would not allow a series of votes in a \"neverendum\".\nSenior SNP figures have said that the vote last September was a \"once-in-a-generation\" opportunity.\nThat said, if the SNP put the promise of a referendum in its manifesto and again got a majority for it in the 2016 Scottish Parliament elections, it could be difficult for Westminster to say no.\nIt would do the Union no good if the UK Parliament could be accused of trying to frustrate Scottish desires.\nWhat's the truth behind the politicians' claims on the campaign trail?

A lorry driver who killed a British holidaymaker in a crash in Crete has been described as "inhumane" for appealing against his conviction.
|
[
"Glen Daly, 24, of Essex, was riding a moped when he was hit by a lorry in June 2009.\nStefanis Konstantino, then 46, was convicted in 2013 of negligent homicide and fleeing the crash. He was sentenced to 23 months in prison.\nMr Daly's mother, Dorothy, said she dreaded the court hearing in June 2016.\nUnder Greek law, Mr Konstantino was not required to serve time in prison but was able to complete his sentence by paying a fine to the court.\nHe had pulled out of a layby, hitting Mr Daly, and drove off.\nThe court's sentence angered Mrs Daly, her husband Les and son and daughter, who travelled to Heraklion for the case.\nSpeaking to the BBC, Mrs Daly said they would return to Crete and hear the same harrowing evidence just four days after the anniversary of Glen's death.\nIt is understood his lifelong friend Tony Atkins, who was holidaying with him and was riding a separate moped, will also be required at the hearing.\n\"As if it is not enough what we have been through already,\" said Mrs Daly, of Chadwell St Mary, near Grays.\n\"I still find it very hard to come to terms with.\n\"That inhumane driver has destroyed our lives, and denied my son his life, and he still wants us to go through the court again.\n\"That driver took my life when he took Glen's. Nothing has changed for me since the 6 June 2009, when Glen died.\n\"I'm just existing, getting through every day.\n\"I can't get it out of my mind, reliving every day what happened to Glen - why the lorry driver pulled out when he did, and seeing Glen in the mortuary.\"\nMrs Daly said should Konstantino win his case the family would appeal the decision in the Supreme Court.\n\"I made a promise to Glen the day he died and when we visited him in the Chapel of Rest, that I will never stop fighting for justice, even down to my last breath,\" she said.\nMrs Daly has previously said the original criminal case would not have come to court were it not for her family's dogged persistence in finding witnesses.\nIn 2012, Konstantino was found responsible for Glen's death in a civil case brought by the Dalys.\nThe family's Crete-based lawyer, George Kopidakis, said a defendant had the right to appeal against a court's decision without justification.\nHe said he believed the driver's conviction would be upheld."

"Daryl Ackland, 36, crashed into Joseph Marchant on Bisley Road, Stroud, on 27 October.\nAckland, of Target Close, had pleaded guilty to causing death by dangerous driving and having no insurance.\nHe was on bail at the time for earlier offences of driving under the influence of illegal drugs and possessing heroin.\nAckland was said to be trying to get away from police who had seen him at the wheel a few moments earlier.\nJudge Jamie Tabor at Gloucester Crown Court described Mr Marchant as an \"exceptional man\" who lived by the motto \"do ordinary things extraordinarily well\".\nHe said: \"You killed him quite accidentally but through sheer recklessness. It was due to your own selfishness, pursuing your own lifestyle addicted to drugs and not caring at all for your fellow human beings.\"\nMr Marchant's son, Bodie Klein, described his father as an \"accomplished artist\" and losing him was \"tragic\".\nAckland was jailed for five years and four months and banned from driving for six years."

A controversial programme that could have seen persistent content-pirates have their internet access cut off, has been stopped in the US.
|
[
"The Copyright Alert System (Cas), notified internet subscribers whose accounts had been used to download copyrighted content for free.\nCopyright holders hailed the scheme a success, despite its closure.\nBut critics said there was no evidence to show that the system had brought down piracy levels.\nContent bodies, such as the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America ) and the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) have long lobbied for greater punishments for content-stealing and finally agreed the \"six strikes\" plan with several of the US's large internet service providers in 2013.\nUnder the scheme, millions of notices were sent to consumers believed to have downloaded content without paying for it.\nThe system was complex - the first two notices were purely educational, the third and fourth required a response from the consumer and on the fifth and sixth notices, consumers might face punishments - such as having their internet speeds throttled. This was left up to the internet service provider, which could also terminate the account if it wanted to.\nThe Center for Copyright Information, which administered the system, explained that it had now been dropped.\n\"After four years of extensive consumer education and engagement, the Copyright Alert System will conclude its work. The programme demonstrated that real progress is possible when content creators, internet innovators and consumer advocates come together in a collaborative and consensus-driven process.\"\nLittle information was available about how successful the scheme had been although it appears that no action was taken against those who received six strikes.\nAccording to the Center for Copyright Information, 1.3 million alerts were sent out in the programme's first 10 months and fewer than than 3% of those were sixth strikes.\nMPAA lawyer Steven Fabrizio said in a statement: \"While CAS demonstrates that a significant number of users who received alerts stopped engaging in piracy, fulfilling CAS' educational goal, a persistent group of hard-core, repeat infringers are unlikely to change their behaviour.\nErnesto van der Sar, editor of piracy news website TorrentFreak told the BBC, copyright holders and ISPs have been working on an improved version of the Cas for more than a year but had failed to reach agreement.\n\"In recent years a lot of copyright infringement has moved away from BitTorrent networks to streaming and direct downloading, which isn't covered by the programme. This has made the warning system less effective on a grander scale,\" he said.\nIn May 2015, the Internet Security Task Force, which represents a range of film studios, criticised the system as ineffective.\nIt used the example of the film Expendables 3 which it claimed had been illegally viewed \"more than 60 million times\".\nMr van der Sar added: \"The news doesn't reflect well on the Get it Right programme, which is the UK equivalent of the Copyright Alerts System without the mitigation measures.\"\nUK ISPs have just begun sending out warning emails to customers identified as having their connection used for illegally downloading content. The notifications advise consumers about legal alternatives, rather than threaten any form of punishment."
] |
[
"The ISP acted after receiving a court order from the Motion Picture Association.\nSky and BT blocked access to the site last year.\nRights holders see such court orders as the best way to crack down on piracy although critics point out that the blocks can be circumvented.\n\"As a responsible ISP, Virgin Media complies with court orders addressed to the company, but strongly believes that changing consumer behaviour to tackle copyright infringement also needs compelling legal alternatives to give consumers access to great content at the right price,\" the firm said in a statement.\nVirgin Media and other ISPs have also blocked access to The Pirate Bay following court orders from the music industry trade body the BPI.\nData shared with the BBC by one ISP which wished to remain anonymous showed that peer-to-peer traffic dipped when the Pirate Bay block initially happened but returned to normal levels within a week.\nMeasures to combat piracy outlined in the Digital Economy Act have been slow to come into effect.\nThe main plan is to send letters to alleged copyright infringers but these will not begin going out until 2014."

The BBC is launching 11 new language services and one of them is English-based Pidgin, which is one of the most widely spoken languages across West Africa, even though it is not officially recognised.
|
[
"The Oxford English Dictionary definition of Pidgin is: A language containing lexical and other features from two or more languages, characteristically with simplified grammar and a smaller vocabulary than the languages from which it is derived, used for communication between people not having a common language; a lingua franca.\nSimply put, Pidgin English is a mixture of English and local languages which enables people who do not share a common language to communicate.\nMost African countries are made up of numerous different ethnic groups who do not necessarily have a lingua franca, so Pidgin has developed.\nIt is widely spoken in Nigeria, Ghana, Equatorial Guinea and Cameroon.\nThere are differences, because English is mixed with different languages in each country but they are usually mutually intelligible.\nA form of Pidgin has developed into a mother tongue for the Krio community in Sierra Leone, which non-Krios can find difficult to understand.\n\"It's quite fluid, it keeps changing all the time and it's expressive as well,\" says Bilkisu Labran, head of the new BBC language services for Nigeria.\n\"Sometimes, if you don't have a word for something, you can just create an onomatopoeic sound and just express yourself. And it will be appreciated and understood.\n\"I can talk about the gun shots that went 'gbagbagba' and you get my gist. So it vividly captures it instead of describing or trying to find a word to say: 'The gun shots were very loud'.\"\nAlso, Pidgin hardly follows standard grammatical rules so \"you can lose things like verbs\", by saying: 'I dey go' to mean 'I'm going'.\nOther examples are:\nIt is difficult to know the precise number of speakers across the region as it is not formally studied in schools and is spoken in varying degrees of proficiency.\nBut many millions of people undoubtedly speak it on a daily basis, especially young people.\nNigeria is estimated to have between three and five million people who primarily use Pidgin in their day-to-day interactions. But it is said to be a second language to a much higher number of up to 75 million people in Nigeria alone - about half the population.\nAlthough it is commonly spoken, Pidgin is not an official language anywhere in West Africa.\nIn many schools, children are disciplined if they are caught speaking Pidgin, rather than English.\nHowever, some local radio stations do broadcast in Pidgin.\nWest African Pidgin English, also called Guinea Coast Creole English, was a language of commerce spoken along the coast during the Atlantic slave trade in the late 17th and 18th Centuries.\nThis allowed British slave merchants and local African traders to conduct business.\nIt later spread to other parts of the West African colonies, becoming a useful trade language among local ethnic groups who spoke different languages."

[
"From September, it will offer the language to students also reading international business and politics.\nWhile shorter courses are available at other universities, this is the first time Urdu has been included in the title of an official degree.\nAbout 100 million people speak it in the world, including 400,000 in the UK.\nYasmin Hussain from the Routes Into Languages university consortium campaigned for the introduction of the new degree.\nShe said: \"The discourse is that modern foreign languages like French and Spanish are more important. Minority languages aren't seen to be as valued and so it has taken a long time.\"\nStudents on the full-time courses will have the chance to learn how the language has been used in film and literature, as well as using Urdu to discuss topics related to their core subject.\nThe launch of the course saw students from local schools take part in workshops and activities, as well as performances by poets and musicians.\nWriter Sabeena Khan was among those at an open day to launch and promote the Urdu courses.\nShe believes young British Pakistanis in particular would benefit from having Urdu as part of their degree.\nMs Khan said: \"The language is rich in meaning, its style and usage. It's beautiful and I don't want to see it die out, I want to see more people learning Urdu.\"\nUrdu facts...\n... And it has also contributed a few words to English\nSheraz Ali is one of the lecturers who will be teaching the new undergraduate degree course.\n\"There is a demand for Urdu-related jobs not just in this country but also in many others, especially within professions such as teaching and the health and legal sectors,\" he said.\nMr Ali believed the course would attract students from different backgrounds and not just native speakers of the language.\nHe added: \"The Urdu degree is open to everyone, not just people from the South Asian diaspora. We live in a multicultural society, where language isn't only a pile of words but something which can bring people together.\"\nYou can hear more on this story on BBC Asian Network at 17:00 GMT on Friday, or after that on the BBC iPlayer."

Warren Gatland's British and Irish Lions coaching reputation will be on the line in Saturday's decider against Australia, says ex-Wales captain Gwyn Jones.

[
"The teams are tied 1-1 after the Lions won the series opener and the\nJones says Gatland must ponder changes beyond those forced by injury.\n\"The final Test... will define Warren Gatland's coaching career with the Lions,\" said pundit Jones.\nParling is lightweight and ineffectual as a second row, so I wouldn't be surprised if there's a change there\nThe former Llanelli and Cardiff flanker, whose career was ended by a serious neck injury in 1997, believes Gatland is likely to replace injured skipper Sam Warburton with Ireland's Sean O'Brien.\nBut he says if fit, England prop Alex Corbisiero (calf) and Wales centre Jamie Roberts (hamstring) should come in.\nJones would also select Wales number eight Toby Faletau ahead of Ireland's Jamie Heaslip and Wales hooker Richard Hibbard's added scrum power over England's livewire Tom Youngs.\nAnd Jones also says England lock Geoff Parling, who took over from injured Irishman Paul O'Connell (broken arm) for the second Test defeat, should also make way.\n\"I think Parling is lightweight and ineffectual as a second row so I wouldn't be surprised if there's a change there,\" said Jones.\n\"And I think if you're going to pick a big team to scrimmage Australia to win the final Test, I think Hibbard probably comes into the reckoning.\nMedia playback is not supported on this device\n\"And for me, I think Faletau has been the better eight than Heaslip.\n\"But then you're making seven changes to the team for the final Test, the deciding Test; and the Test, really, that will define Warren Gatland's coaching career with the Lions.\n\"And that's a big gamble to make for 80 minutes of rugby - to completely change half your side.\n\"I don't know if we'll see that many changes, but there will have to be at least four or five.\n\"He's not that much of a gambler. He's bold occasionally with individuals.\"\nJones doubts the Lions will change their powerplay approach - dubbed \"Warrenball\" in the Australia media - or that Warburton's Wales open-side rival Justin Tipuric will earn a Test start.\n\"The natural replacement for Warburton would be O'Brien, who plays the same type of game as a competitive tackle-area seven rather than the more open and looser player that Tipuric is,\" said Jones.\n\"Having said that, the last game anyway was run by Australia.\n\"It was open, it was fluid and in those sorts of environments I think that Tipuric would be more effective.\n\"But I doubt whether he'll get the start.\""

The UK goods trade deficit shrank to its smallest amount in almost a year in June, official figures have shown, helped by a rise in exports.
|
[
"The Office for National Statistics (ONS) said the gap between imports and exports narrowed to £8.1bn in June, down from £8.7bn in May.\nThe ONS also said construction output grew more in the second quarter of the year than it had first estimated.\nThe data rounds off a week of positive economic news.\nThe trade gap in goods with non-EU countries fell sharply from £4bn in May to £2.6bn in June, well below forecasts of a £3.8bn deficit.\nUK manufacturers have been urged to trade with countries outside Europe - which have been growing far more quickly in recent years - rather than with those in the eurozone, where growth is much weaker.\nHowever, the UK's single biggest trading partner remains the eurozone.\nAlthough the UK usually imports more goods from other countries than it exports, it normally makes more from services sold abroad than it imports, and taking this into account the overall trade gap, including both goods and services, was £1.55bn, the lowest since January.\nOver the three months to June, export volumes grew by 5.9% almost twice as fast as the growth in imports.\nJune exports were worth £26.9bn, taking the total for the three months to the end of June to £78.4bn, a record sum.\n\"This positive trade data supports our view that the manufacturing sector will gain momentum and will be a source of growth for the UK economy over the coming years,\" said Rachel Pettigrew, senior economist at the EEF manufacturers' organisation.\nThe British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) said the fall in the trade gap was \"welcome\", but added that the deficit was \"still too large\".\n\"We aren't making enough progress in rebalancing our economy towards net exports,\" said David Kern, chief economist at the BCC.\n\"Our recent surveys reveal huge untapped potential among British exporters, especially in the service sector, and unleashing this potential will help to secure a sustainable recovery.\"\nSeparately, the ONS released data on construction output, showing it rose by 1,4% in the three months to the end of June, up from the previous estimate of 0.9%.\nEarlier in the week, ONS figures showed that manufacturing output rose in June at the strongest pace since the end of 2010.\nOther surveys have also pointed to strong growth in the service sector and in retail sales."
] |
[
"Warmer than usual weather curbed demand for electricity and gas, while output in the manufacturing sector continued to decline.\nThe Office for National Statistics said industrial output fell 1.1% in December compared with a 0.8% fall in November.\nManufacturing output fell 0.2% in December for the third month in a row.\nThe industrial output figures cover output in the manufacturing (the largest component of production), mining and quarrying, energy, water supply and waste management industries.\nThe ONS also estimated that industrial output in the fourth quarter saw a revised fall of 0.5%, as against previous estimates of a 0.2% decline.\nOutput from the oil and gas extraction sector fell 4.6% in December, the biggest fall since September, partly explained by the fall in Brent crude oil prices, which fell 16% in December alone and 35% in 2015 as a whole.\n\"The UK's economy expanded 0.5% in the fourth quarter, but this early estimate could easily be trimmed if poor construction output numbers on Friday follow the industrial data,\" Pantheon Macroeconomics economist Samuel Tombs said.\nThe second official estimate of UK economic growth in the three months to the end of December is due to be published on 25 February.\nThe manufacturing sector failed to contribute to UK economic growth in 2015 and the latest figures do not promise much of a recovery in 2016.\nThe industrial production figures come a day after the UK's annual traded goods deficit was shown to have widened to the biggest on record in 2015, at £125bn.\nWednesday's figures suggest the government's efforts to rebalance the economy, supported by a \"march of the makers\", have yet to bear fruit with Tuesday's trade figures showing a surplus of £90bn in services exports, primarily supported by the financial services sector.\n\"December's sharp drop in industrial production will fuel concerns about the UK economic outlook as well as the unbalanced nature of growth,\" IHS Global Insight economist Howard Archer said."

A new railway station is to be built in a Derbyshire town after the scheme got government backing.
|
[
"The proposed £6.5m station in Ilkeston is one of four schemes that successfully applied for money from a £20m Department for Transport fund.\nTransport Secretary Patrick McLoughlin said the scheme had been awarded £4.5m from the New Station Fund.\nThe station will open in 2014 and will connect Ilkeston to Northern Rail's Sheffield to Nottingham route.\nMr McLoughlin, who is also a Conservative MP for Derbyshire Dales, said: \"Ilkeston is one of the largest towns in the country that doesn't actually have a railway connection.\n\"The truth of the matter is we've seen massive growth on the railways over the past 15 years. The pressure on me as secretary of state is to provide more services.\"\nIlkeston once had three railway stations but lost the last one in 1967 after it was axed in the Beeching Report.\nThe new building will be located near the site of Ilkeston's last station.\nIt will have two platforms, automated ticket machines, a 150-space car park and a taxi rank.\nJessica Lee, Conservative MP for Erewash, said: \"This is fantastic news for Ilkeston. We need a station to help people get out and about for training and jobs and also to bring businesses into the town. I have no doubt at all, this is a real win for the town.\"\nDerbyshire County Council has agreed to provide £750,000 of funding for the station. Additional contributions will come from Erewash Borough Council and other funding sources.\nGlennice Birkin, a Labour county councillor for Ilkeston, said the fact the scheme was going ahead was wonderful news. \"People have signed petitions for years and years to get a station in Ilkeston,\" she said. \"I imagine it will be very popular.\"\nOther new stations to benefit from the funding were schemes in Newcourt in Devon, Lea Bridge in London and Pye Corner in Newport."

"Derby City Council bought the Riverlights site in the city centre and approved the project in 2003.\nIn December, after years of planning disputes and delays due to the recession, new plans for a 50 metre swimming pool were also scrapped.\nThe authority has now submitted an application to use it as storage space.\nIf approved, the area between the city's bus station on Moorledge and the River Derwent, could be used for up to five years.\nLast month plans to build a new swimming pool at the site were changed after the Labour-led authority said it wanted to use the current Moorways site instead.\nA public consultation on the plans runs until 26 January ahead of a decision being made next month."

A cat pining for its holidaying owners had to be rescued after spending six days stuck 40ft (12m) up a tree.
|
[
"Tom the cat had taken to the tree near his owner's home in Sawston, Cambridgeshire, on Friday, while being looked after by a neighbour.\nHaving tried everything to get the forlorn feline down, they eventually called the RSPCA who turned to the county's fire service to rescue him.\nTom was safely back on all four paws on solid ground after about an hour.\nOfficers from Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Service came to Tom's rescue at about 13:45 BST on Wednesday.\n\"The cat was about 40ft up in a tree. We had to cut through brambles to even get to the tree,\" crew commander Jason Leach said.\n\"The owners were away on holiday and the neighbour who has been looking after him tried everything to get him down.\"\nThe neighbour had done the right thing by not attempting to rescue the moggy themselves, he said.\n\"It is important members of the public do not attempt to carry out rescues which could put themselves in danger,\" Mr Leach said.\nThe cat was said to be none-the-worse for his ordeal, although \"a little hungry\".\n\"We're happy Tom the cat is safe, and hopefully he won't go on any more adventures while his owner is on holiday,\" Mr Leach added."

According to the International Institute for Strategic Studies, a significant proportion of all the fatalities in armed conflicts around the world last year were in wars in the Middle East.
|
[
"By far the most numerous victims of violence in these conflicts were Muslims.\nAnother study looking at six conflicts worldwide in 2012 - in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Sudan, Somalia, Syria and Yemen - found that the majority of armed/insurgent groups involved had a jihadist ideology.\nWhile the world as a whole is arguably becoming less violent, certain regions, in particular the Middle East, are going in the opposite direction.\nIt is in that context that Tunisia's declaration of a state of emergency - a week after the mass killings in Sousse - takes on added meaning.\nTunisia's leader blamed the poor security in neighbouring Libya for the country's problems. He also took aim at the international community for what he claimed was a lack of resolve in tackling the so-called Islamic State.\nHe said Tunisia was a target because it had a functioning, secular democracy and that terrorists posed an existential threat to the nation.\nIt is recognition of the scale of the radical jihadist threat in countries, big and small, throughout the region.\nThe scale of the long bloody war in Syria, the ongoing battle for control of parts of Iraq, and the collapse of Libya have inadvertently taken attention away from the growing threat to stability and security elsewhere in the region.\nTunisia is not alone. Algeria is another country that continues to face sporadic violence. Serving as the gateway between Africa and Europe, it has been torn by conflict over the last half-century.\nAlthough political violence has declined since the 1990s, the country has been shaken by a campaign of bombings by a group calling itself Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM).\nSimilar but separate jihadist groups have emerged in recent years throughout the Sahara region, reinforced by weapons obtained through militias operating in neighbouring Libya.\nIn Mali, jihadist insurgency continues. Earlier this year, militants attacked the northern town of Nampala, killing five people. The militants have been fighting the Malian army for a number of years.\nThe latest phase of the insurgency began after a French-led military intervention in 2013, aimed at driving out jihadist militants from towns they had seized in northern Mali and declared to be an \"Islamic state\". The French military action dispersed but did not destroy the extremists, and sporadic attacks have continued.\nEgypt under President Abdul Fattah al-Sisi, the former military chief, is cracking down hard on internal threats, perceived or real.\nThe Muslim Brotherhood is outlawed and its leading lights face execution. Yet the regime faces a growing jihadist insurgency in Sinai. The most lethal insurgent group seems to be Sinai Province, and was previously called Ansar Beit al-Maqdis.\nIt is an affiliate of IS, and has operated there since 2011. The group has launched frequent attacks against security forces and military infrastructure, and seems to have adopted some of the techniques used by IS in terms of recruiting new members using online propaganda.\nLibya is a failed state, overrun by militias and with no real functioning government. Increasingly though, the country is posing even bigger problems for its neighbours, serving as a pathway for weapons and Islamists intent on exporting terror further afield.\nJordan remains perched on a delicate precipice. It lacks wealth or natural resources but has been a dependable strategic ally for America and others in the Middle East. But militant groups have established a growing presence on Jordan's borders with Syria and Iraq.\nThe country has a long history of trouble with extremist groups. IS carried out the killing of a captured Jordanian pilot earlier this year. Some 2,000 or so Jordanian nationals are believed to have joined jihadist groups in Iraq and Syria. King Abdullah is in the sights of the extremists, in part for joining the international coalition against IS.\nThe conflict in Syria shows no sign of an early resolution and highlights yet again how conflict within one country can ignite much wider repercussions.\nFrom week to week the apparent winners and losers change form. It's increasingly hard for outside observers to know who is fighting who.\nThis is because Syria has become a proxy war between regional powers -Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Iran - as much as a fight between the Assad regime and its various opponents, of which the jihadists - split into at least two groups - are but one.\nSome observers speak now not so much of a generational Sunni-Shia conflict but more of a Cold War between Sunni power Saudi Arabia and Shia rival Iran.\nTo understand what's going on in the Middle East, they say, requires us to look at everything through this prism.\nIn this analysis, Iran has emerged as a stronger power in the wake of the 2003 Iraq war. It now has a wide influence throughout the region, in particular over Iraq, Lebanon, Syria and Yemen.\nThe Saudis, according to this thesis, have belatedly woken up to the Iranian threat. They are fighting back by supporting Iran's enemies in Syria and Iraq and more recently anti-Iranian factions in Yemen.\nThe conflict in Yemen - bloody and in danger of being forgotten by the wider world - can also be seen through this prism, although a temporary ceasefire has just been put in place.\nThe Saudis are determined to persist with their military action in Yemen, bombing the Shia Houthi rebels in that country, to ensure that Yemen does not fall under the influence of Iran (although the stated aim is to restore the government)\nThe Saudis accuse Iran of arming the Houthis, something which the Houthis and Iran deny.\nSame too for the uneasy peace in Bahrain, home to the US Fifth Fleet, and a small but important battleground for bigger regional forces.\nIt too potentially lies at the heart of a tussle between Iran and the Saudis. The country's Sunni monarchy, backed by the Saudis, rules over a restive Shia majority population, many of whom look to Iran.\nHere too, say some observers, a Sunni-Shia conflict might just as plainly be stated as a Saudi-Iranian stand-off.\nAll in all, the populations of the Middle East find themselves victims to spreading conflict within and beyond their borders.\nThe very meaning of nationhood, say some, is under threat from the resurgence of sectarian and ethnic identities.\nThe extremists are filling the vacuum."

"But as global landmarks and Facebook feeds turned into a bunting of Tricolores, some were left asking; what about the more than 60 people who perished in suicide attacks in Beirut and Baghdad just days before? What about the people of Syria, for whom the threat of death by bullet or blast, rebels or regime is part of everyday life?\nThe Paris attack was shocking and devastating. At the same time, it was a single event in an ongoing conflict which has become centred on Syria and Iraq but is being waged across the globe.\nBBC Monitoring has used world media reporting on deaths involving at least one identifiable jihadist group to build a sense of the toll that conflict with Sunni Islamist extremists is taking. Our analysis considered events between the downing of the Russian airliner over Sinai on 31 October and the attack on the Radisson hotel in Bamako, Mali on 22 November.\nAs well as jihadist attacks, we also looked at reported casualties from operations carried out against such groups.\nObtaining reliable casualty figures from conflict zones in is near impossible, as is determining the groups responsible for every attack. But BBC Monitoring's access to a broad range of global media sources allows us to get a sense of the scale of the bloodshed. The figures we quote do not represent a comprehensive account of the human cost of this conflict, but are intended to help place the Paris attacks into a global context.\nDuring the period, 707 deaths from identifiable attacks by jihadists were recorded.\nSuicide or car bombings in Baghdad are an almost daily occurrence. The data show 59 recorded deaths from these incidents, 26 of which occurred on the same day as the Paris attacks.\nAt least 546 deaths were directly attributable to attacks by IS and its affiliates, including Nigeria's Boko Haram and Wilayat Sina, who claimed responsibility for the Russian plane bombing. The actual figure is likely to be considerably higher, given the paucity of reliable reporting from areas under IS control, and a large number of attacks which are suspected, but not verifiably attributable to the group.\nThe Nigerian IS-affiliate known as Boko Haram, which last year killed more people than its parent outfit in Syria, staged at least eight attacks in Nigeria, Cameroon and Chad, killing more than 75 people, mostly civilians.\nAttacks attributed to al-Qaeda and its affiliates accounted for at least 135 deaths in Africa, Asia and the Middle East, including the Bamako hotel siege.\nAl-Shabab were the most prolific al-Qaeda affiliate, carrying out at least 17 attacks and killing more than 90 people, including civilians, soldiers and government officials. Several members lost their lives as a result of an internal dispute over whether the group should switch allegiance to Islamic State.\nFrance's response to the Paris attacks was to intensify operations against IS targets. This was in addition to air strikes being carried out by a US-led coalition and Russia, and ground operations conducted by forces in Iraq and Syria. Military operations are also being conducted against Boko Haram in West Africa and the Taliban in South Asia.\nOur research shows that well more than 1,000 jihadists were killed during the period, but additional data indicate more than 80 civilian deaths in such operations, although this is difficult to verify. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says 400 civilians were killed by Russian strikes alone between September and November.\nLast year, BBC Monitoring, World Service and Kings College London collaborated on a project to count the number of deaths resulting from jihadist attacks over a 30-day period.\nThe data showed that the perceived decline of jihadist violence in the wake of Osama Bin-Laden's death was an illusion. In fact, the threat had increased, as exemplified by the spectacular rise of IS.\nA total of 664 jihadist attacks and 5,042 deaths were recorded for the month of November 2014. This year's snapshot suggests that the phenomenon still shows no sign of abating. Iraq, Syria, Nigeria and Afghanistan remain the most dangerous countries, but their neighbours are also now increasingly at risk.\nMuslims remain by far the biggest victims of terrorist attacks.\nAnd the high profile attacks on Paris and the Russian airliner show that citizens of nations involved in operations against jihadist groups continue to be targeted.\nBBC Monitoring reports and analyses news from TV, radio, web and print media around the world.

Cyclists and drivers are being asked to find ways to share Bristol's "congested streets" without resorting to road rage.
|
[
"Charity Bristol Mediation has been given £10,000 of public money to \"bring road users together\".\nBut doubts about the plan have united some. Cyclist Hugh Marshall called it a \"cosmetic exercise\" and the Alliance of British Drivers said \"it's a joke\".\nThe council said it looked forward to \"seeing positive results\".\nBristol Mediation, which helps neighbourhoods to resolve conflicts and disputes, is running the Road Sharing Restorative Approach scheme.\nIt said the city was well known for its clogged streets as cars, bikes, buses, taxis and lorries competed for space which \"can lead to road rage and conflict\".\nSome road users who spoke to BBC Bristol did not think the project was a solution to the issue.\nMr Marshall, who has been cycling for 40 years, said there had been an \"explosion in cycling\" in the past five years and suggested an adult cycling test.\n\"Quite a good percentage of these new cyclists are either contemptuous of the Highway Code, or completely ignorant of the Highway Code,\" he said.\nBob Bull, from the Alliance of British Drivers, said: \"The problem is that cyclists can do what they like, where they like, when they like and there's no repercussions. That clearly isn't the case for motorists.\n\"These are the circumstances that breed people's feelings, so you end up with the situation where motorists are seen as anti-cyclist. It's a complete waste of money.\"\nThe project, which will also produce a short film, is one of several community safety projects to be awarded funding from the office of Police and Crime Commissioner Sue Mountstevens.\nThe council, part of the Safer Bristol Partnership which distributes the money, said it was \"always supportive of any project that encourages positive relationships between all different road users\"."

A hospital placed in special measures because of high death rates has seen its mortality figures fall.

"Medway NHS Foundation Trust said its death rate was now 100.19, almost in line with the national average of 100.\nThe latest statistics were revealed weeks ahead of a full inspection of the hospital, which will take place at the end of the month.\nMedical director of Medway Maritime Hospital Diana Hamilton-Fairley said a range of changes had been put in place.\n\"It's no secret that our high mortality rate was one of the overriding reasons we were placed into special measures back in 2013,\" she said.\nShe said the NHS trust had made changes to ensure patients received safe and compassionate treatment with a better safety culture throughout the hospital, and a focus on recognising and responding quickly to patients whose conditions deteriorated.\nStaff had also been trained on using the National Early Warning Score which determines the severity of a patient's illness and when critical care is required, she added.\nNew procedures had been brought in for emergency admissions, frail, elderly patients and those with chronic respiratory and cardiac conditions, she added.\nMs Hamilton-Fairley said other positive outcomes had also been seen which the trust hoped would stand it in good stead for the forthcoming inspection.\nThe hospital was placed in special measures after the Keogh review.\nFourteen NHS trusts were found to have high death rates in 2010-11 and 2011-12, and 11 were placed in special measures."

One of four men accused of plotting to kill two former UDA leaders in Scotland allegedly asked a man if he could obtain a gun, a court has heard.
|
[
"Former drug addict Blair Bell gave a statement to police in 2013 in which he said Paul Sands asked him about a gun.\nBut in a second interview he said he was not sure if Mr Sands, or another man who was present, had asked him.\nMr Sands, Anton Duffy, Martin Hughes, and John Gorman, deny plotting to kill Johnny Adair and Sam McCrory.\nThe High Court in Glasgow has already heard that Mr Adair and his best friend Mr McCrory were both former members of prohibited Loyalist terror organisations the Ulster Defence Association (UDA) and its paramilitary wing the Ulster Freedom Fighters (UFF).\nThey were involved in the Good Friday agreement in 1998 which brought peace to Northern Ireland, and both have been living in Ayrshire for a number of years.\nThe court heard that Mr Bell, 28, gave a statement to police in October 2013 in which he claimed to have given his friend Robert Telfer, in the company of Mr Sands, a lift to Asda in Prestwick, South Ayrshire.\nDuring that drive he initially told police that: \"Sands once asked me where I could get a gun, but I didn't entertain him.\"\nIn a second police interview Mr Bell claimed that he was not sure if it was Mr Sands or Mr Telfer who had mentioned guns.\nIn evidence, Mr Bell was asked by prosecutor Paul Kearney: \"Who asked you to source a gun,\" and replied: \"One of then - Robert Telfer or Paul Sands.\"\nMr Kearney asked: \"What type of gun was it,\" and Mr Bell replied: \"It was never mentioned.\"\nThe prosecutor then asked: \"What was the gun for,\" and Mr Bell said: \"It was never mentioned.\"\nDefence QC Donald Findlay, representing Mr Sands, suggested to Mr Bell that the conversation about a gun never took place, but he denied this was the case.\nWhen asked why people would think he knew how to source a gun, Mr Bell replied that he had boasted to a friend about being shown a gun by Gambian drug dealers in 2007.\nHe told the court that the Gambians were called Disco Dave, Mo and Sidu and claimed he had met them in a pub in Ayr.\nMr Bell told the court that he drove these three men between Glasgow and Ayr around 2007 and claimed that on one occasion they took him into their flat and there was a gun on the table.\nHe was asked how often he had discussed guns with the Gambians and replied: \"Four or five times.\"\nHe said he had mentioned this to a friend and added: \"I was boasting about it.\"\nMr Duffy, 39, Mr Hughes, 36, Mr Sands, 31, and Mr Gorman, 58, deny plotting to murder Mr Adair and Mr McCrory.\nIt is also claimed Mr Duffy and Mr Gorman were allegedly part of a plan to murder the governor of Barlinnie jail Derek McGill in a car bomb attack.\nThree other men - Craig Convery, 37, Gary Convery, 34, and Gordon Brown, 29, - deny organised crime charges.\nThe trial before judge Lady Scott continues."

"He was still a teenager when he was involved in the murder of Sergeant Michael Newman in Derby in 1992.\nOriginally from Armagh, Duffy joined the Irish National Liberation Army (INLA) in the 1980s.\nThe INLA was a familiar name on news bulletins throughout the Troubles in Northern Ireland.\nA much smaller group than the IRA, it was given to high-flown socialist rhetoric while indulging in bloody bouts of feuding.\nIt retained a capacity for ruthless killing and was behind some of the most high-profile murders of the period, including that of Conservative MP Airey Neave.\nThe INLA is believed to have been responsible for 111 murders from its formation in 1975 until its ceasefire in 1998.\nAnd although on ceasefire, it is still thought to have been involved in a number of murders since then.\nDuffy, who has admitted killing Sgt Newman, is currently serving a four-year jail sentence in the Irish Republic for the INLA membership.\nHe was moved from a jail in the Irish Republic, where he has been living for a number of years, to one in Northern Ireland, from where he was finally moved to England for trial.\nIn Dublin, it is believed he was head of an INLA unit that was involved in criminal gangland activity.\nIn 1999, he led a group which took six members of a rival criminal gang hostage in what was to become known as the Ballymount Bloodbath.\nThe hostages were beaten and tortured at the Ballymount Industrial Estate in Dublin, but one managed to use his mobile phone to call for back-up.\nIn the ensuing brawl, INLA man Patrick Campbell was killed in a machete attack.\nA member of the criminal group was shot dead in a revenge attack.\nDuffy was convicted of false imprisonment and possession of a handgun and served nine years in prison. He was released in 2007.\nIn recent years he has been arrested a number of times by police in the Irish Republic, once following a stabbing and another involving the kidnap and torture of a man.\nIn both instances the victims either withdrew their statements or refused to make a complaint against Duffy.\nNewspaper reports from Dublin suggest he has also been involved in a feud with a gangland figure known as \"Fat\" Freddie Thompson.\nIn 2009, Duffy admitted membership of the INLA but at the same time publicly disassociated himself from the group.\nHe was sentenced to serve four years in Portlaoise Prison, County Laois.\nSpeaking to the Irish News last year, Duffy said he was keen to move his family back to Northern Ireland and that he had turned his back on his paramilitary past.\nHe said he hoped to serve the remainder of his INLA membership sentence alongside any sentence he would receive for the murder of Sgt Newman.\nHowever, members of his family have suggested that the INLA may deny Duffy was ever a member of the organisation, which would make him ineligible for early release under the terms of the Good Friday Agreement."

Tweeting explosions, biting memes and vines looping the exquisite farce of the Premier League soap opera - the twists, turns, highs and lows of the 2015-16 season were captured brilliantly on social media.

"By bringing together some of the best content we remember the moments that made us 'ROFL' or 'SMH' or both.\n(That's 'roll on the floor laughing' or 'shake my head' for anyone over 30).\nSo enjoy, relive and share.\nIt would be folly to start anywhere else but Leicester City.\nThe naysayers declared there was more chance of finding Elvis alive than the Foxes winning the title. In fact the odds for both occurrences were the same - a generous 5,000-1.\nThe bookies forked out an estimated £20m on Leicester's achievement, now if 'The King' reappears that would definitely have them all shook up.\nMedia playback is not supported on this device\nOne Leicester fan who should keep his hip swinging to a minimum at the start of next season is Gary Lineker.\nThis is what the Match of the Day presenter tweeted in December:\nAnd this is a mock up of what it could look like (a bit generous perhaps):\nWeek after week Leicester and their players were among the top trending topics, culminating in the explosion that occurred on 2 May moments after Tottenham's dreams were obliterated.\nBy this point the 'Vardy Party', which will undoubtedly become a club night in the city, was well and truly under way at the striker's home.\nEngland player Jamie Vardy, or was it his lookalike, partied like it was 1999 (RIP Prince) with as many of the squad he could cram into his... eight-bedroom £1m mansion.\nIt was perhaps fitting that captain and tattoo parlour aficionado Wes Morgan, having performed heroics throughout the campaign, provided one of the moments of the social season when he was dragged along the kitchen-come-dancefloor.\nThere weren't too many other clubs who deserve a slap on the back, but a special mention should go West Ham, Bournemouth and Watford.\nThe Hammers' beanie-wearing manager Slaven Bilic inspired his side to some memorable wins - coming back from 2-0 down to beat Everton, the FA Cup extra-time victory over Liverpool, to name two. A top-seven finish is a great way to say #FarewellBoleyn.\nHis chief playmaker in the success was Dimitri Payet - a summer signing who turned free-kicks into an art form, literally.\nCherries boss Eddie Howe, who we discovered has a penchant for breakfast-time news conferences, and Hornets counterpart Quique Sanchez Flores, fresh from apparently filming The Night Manager, ruined many a pre-season Premier League prediction. Including this one:\nWhere do we start?\nManchester City, Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and, of course, Everton all underwhelmed.\nChelsea's implosion was perhaps the most spectacular. They were a strong tip to retain their title, but by the end of December they were 16th and an outside bet to go down.\nThe ultimate ignominy was having to again sack the club's Special One, Jose Mourinho, resulting from several contributing factors. Or perhaps the ultimate jibe was West Ham's co-owner's tweet after his side defeated the beleaguered Blues back in October.\nAs for another strong favourite, Manchester City, their season followed a similar trajectory to this trending graph below which highlights the moment when it was confirmed Pep Guardiola would be taking charge of the team from next season.\nThe red half of Manchester spent an astonishing £36m (rising to an even more astonishing £58m) for a teenage forward many of us only became familiar with on the day he signed.\nLouis van Gaal's side were beset by injuries during a curious campaign which finished with the side missing out on a Champions League spot but with a place in the FA Cup final. Van Gaal out? Read below.\nAs for Arsenal, move aside 'Brexit', the big 'in or out' debate trotted out was whether Arsene Wenger should remain manager of the Gunners or not.\nAside from the fact the Frenchman led the side to second place and a 20th (TWENTIETH) successive Champions League qualification, he continues to be pilloried more by his own supporters than those who don't follow the club.\nThe committed leader of 'Wengxit' was in full campaign mode when in April the Gunners boss suggested that his side played in a \"difficult climate\" at home.\nAnd Everton? All those very good international players and a manager who endeared himself to many with his football philosophy and dancing to Jason Derulo - where did it all go wrong?\nWill they? Won't they? How dare they!\nThere is a lot to be said for managing a so-called lesser club whose seasonal expectations do not amount to more than mid-table safety.\nThe pressure gauge was ticking low for the likes of Howe, Mark Hughes and, to a lesser extent, Alan Pardew, but for others speculation of their futures was rife.\nCity's Manuel Pellegrini seemed to be the last person to know he was going to be replaced by Pep Guardiola, although he does have a great poker face.\nAnd, as touched on above, Van Gaal's future has been questioned - often directly at the man himself - since it was reported United chiefs had spoken to Mourinho about taking over next season. The Dutchman is contracted at Old Trafford until the end of the 2016-17 campaign.\nFans have had a love-hate relationship with him.\nThey've been baffled:\nPuzzled:\nMedia playback is not supported on this device\nAnd amused:\nWhether the Premier League is treated to another season of the Dutchman's idiosyncrasies remains to be seen.\nThere were 10 'partings of company' this season - up five from the previous season, but down two from the 2013-14 campaign.\nThe first of those took place one Super Sunday at the beginning of October when both Sunderland's Dick Advocaat and Liverpool's Brendan Rodgers were booted from the boot rooms.\nThe live announcement of Rodgers' sacking on Sky Sports prompted the normally unruffled Thierry Henry to ruffle the trousers of fellow pundit Jamie Carragher, which in turn became one of the most shared football clips of the season.\nTim Sherwood was next to depart later that month after leading Aston Villa to rock bottom, where they remained. Remi Garde, another young gaffer but minus the rogueish Home Counties charm, also went the same way in March.\nIn what was a disappointing season for gilet-wearing managers, Garry Monk cleared his desk in December after leading Swansea to only one win in 11 league games.\nChairman Huw Jenkins said: \"The decision has been made very reluctantly and with a heavy heart.\" So perhaps you should have kept him?\nThe big one came a week before Christmas when Mourinho, who had been on the brink for a while, was sacked by Chelsea for a second time.\nHis side had almost done an 'anti-Leicester' by winning the title then performing dismally the following season. It seems to be either Manchester United or... Indonesia (?!) for the Portuguese.\nNext on our list is Steve McClaren, who held his brolly firmly to protect himself against the hail of criticism during his nine months at Newcastle. He spent north of £80m on transfers and departed with the club in 19th - best to leave that off the CV.\nEverton's Martinez had been hanging on a thread for a couple of weeks, until somebody grabbed the scissors on 12 May.\nMedia playback is not supported on this device\nBoth Pellegrini and Sanchez Flores said their goodbyes on the final day.\nThe fate of the Spaniard - who led the Hornets to the FA Cup semi-finals and 13th place in the Premier League - was decided last week after both parties failed to agree whether the season was a success or not. The league will be a poorer place without his rustic appearance.\nNot since X Factor series one has there been this much excitement about up-and-coming British talent.\nDele Alli took to the Premier League like a bottle to a Manchester United coach, with 10 goals in his debut top-flight season including that incredible strike against Crystal Palace in January.\nThe 20-year-old was voted the PFA Young Player of the Year, and was shortlisted alongside team-mate Harry Kane, 22, who had another stellar campaign - that's now 59 goals in two seasons.\nKane ditched his vanilla demeanour to post a photo of hunting lions in April to suggest Tottenham were closing the gap on leaders Leicester.\nFoxes counterpart and England colleague Vardy responded during some respite from the 'Vardy Party':\nAt Manchester United, even the hardcore fans were asking \"Who?\" when first defender Cameron Borthwick-Jackson and more notably striker Marcus Rashford were introduced to the fold.\nRashford was a last-minute addition to the starting line-up for their crucial second-leg match against Midtjylland in the Europa League. He scored twice to help United to a 5-1 victory and then grabbed two more against Arsenal on his Premier League debut, on his way to seven goals in 16 appearances.\nWith the addition of an England call-up, how is he supposed to concentrate on his A-levels?\nFrance forward Martial, 20, who in September cost £58m more than Rashford, began his Old Trafford career in spectacular fashion with four goals in five games during what has been an impressive debut campaign. He was rewarded for his exploits with the Facebook Football young player of the year award. Like.\nPerhaps Manchester City's Kelechi Iheanacho might feel slightly hard done by that he was not in the running for any major awards having netted 13 times this season, often after coming on as a substitute.\nIf the 19-year-old goes on to great things then Pellegrini would have left one heck of a legacy, though not many City fans would be about to praise him.\nHonourable mentions to Tottenham midfielder Eric Dier, Stoke keeper Jack Butland, Liverpool's Philippe Coutinho and forwards Arsenal's Alex Iwobi and Everton's Romelu Lukaku.\nWith the exception of Aston Villa, who appeared hell bent on finishing bottom, all the relegation issues were not decided until the final week of the season.\nThe fight for the remaining two places - aka the Race for the Championship - was settled last Wednesday when Sunderland secured their Premier League status with a 3-0 win over Everton and in turn sent both Norwich and Newcastle to the gallows.\nThe Magpies replaced McClaren with Rafael Benitez, but to no avail. Former midfielder Joey Barton targeted owner Mike Ashley, who in his nine years at the helm has overseen two relegations. Do you get a Blue Peter badge for that?\nThe Canaries' recent league status record reads like this: Championship, Premier League, Premier League, Premier League, Championship, Premier League and now Championship.\nThe satirical Suffolk Gazette could not resist having a pop at Norfolk's beloved TV cook and Norwich's majority shareholder:\nThe final word belongs to Sunderland boss Sam Allardyce, who was brought to the club in October with the Black Cats 19th and winless in their opening eight games.\nA few months later and he has managed to maintain his record of never taking a club down.\nHere's the Bleacher Report's take on Big Sam's great escape.\nWith all the major issues decided, it seemed like the Premier League season would ease into a Yaya Toure jog on the final day.\nHow wrong we were.\nBy this stage, large sections of Old Trafford had already been evacuated. Speculation followed as to what the suspect package was and who could have been the perpetrator(s).\nThe Greater Manchester Police stated it was an \"incredibly lifelike\" device, before it was later revealed to be a dummy device accidentally left behind after a security exercise. As you do.\nAway from those explosive events, we witnessed one of the most remarkable results of the season at St James' Park where relegated Newcastle defeated Tottenham 5-1.\nBenitez, still pondering whether a wet Tuesday night in Rotherham is enough for him to commit to the Magpies, roused both the fans and players as Spurs capitulated.\nWhat was more galling for Spurs was that by caving in they also lost second spot to north London rivals Arsenal. Gunners fans celebrated 'St Totteringham Day' on social media - the point in the season where Spurs can no longer finish above Arsenal.\nThe league campaign eventually came to a conclusion on Tuesday, 18 May when Manchester United played their delayed game against Bournemouth.\nThe match finished 3-1 to the men in red.\nThey thought it was all over, it is now.\nHave you added the new Top Story alerts in the BBC Sport app?

"The time of year when supporters of bigger clubs become wary of banana skins (not literally!).\nAnd the time of year when the underdogs give their decrepit stand a lick of paint, throw open their doors to the television cameras and do their best to produce a result which will satisfy the locals for years.\nIt's the FA Cup third round... and once again it provided plenty of drama.\nHere's how it all unfolded, through the eyes of the BBC football live text commentary."

"The 26-year-old Scot had previously won eight other world championship medals but clocked two minutes 54.369 seconds, to win the title, 0.12 seconds ahead of Canada's Marianne St-Gelais in second.\nShe also reached the 500m final, but finished last of the four competitors.\nChristie has the chance of another gold in the 1000m on Sunday.\n\"I never expected to win the 1500,'' said Christie.\nThe world title represents an impressive resurgence from Christie, who said she was considering her future in the sport after being disqualified from all three of her events at the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics.\nLivingston-born Christie has been focusing on the shorter distance events this season and has already set a new 500m world record of 42.335 seconds.\nIn the 1500m final, South Korea's Shim Suk-hee was third with her compatriot and defending champion Choi Min-jeong a distant fifth.\nChristie was unable to challenge in the 500m final, recording a time of 43.835 seconds, with China's Kexin Fan winning in 43.605."

Railway bosses are to be quizzed about train services in the South East which were branded an "appalling joke" by MPs.
|
[
"Several MPs are to put their concerns to Southern and Network Rail at a transport task force meeting.\nSouthern was severely criticised before Christmas after passengers faced major delays because of signal faults.\nThe operator said services had been hit by infrastructure and train problems and staffing issues.\nAt the time, it apologised \"for the level of service\" passengers had experienced but said it was \"working very hard on the prevention of further issues\".\nCommuters in the South East have also suffered months of disruption because of rebuilding work at London Bridge.\nConservative Maria Caulfield, who represents Lewes, said the meeting on 18 January would give the region's MPs a chance to question Network Rail and Southern about the situation.\n\"As it is in the first few weeks of the new year we'll be able to see what improvements they've made.\"\nMs Caulfield, tweeted that it was \"almost quicker to fly to space station by rocket than get home to Lewes by train\" the day after British astronaut Tim Peake took six-and-a-half hours to reach the International Space Station.\nShe told the BBC constituents were missing flights from Gatwick and important meetings because of problems on the network.\nSouthern services were also branded \"an appalling joke\" in parliament on 17 December by Labour MP for Streatham Chuka Umunna, and criticised by Reigate's Conservative MP Crispin Blunt.\nIn May, figures from the Office of Rail and Road revealed a fifth of trains operated by Southern did not meet arrival time targets."

"Hundreds of trains were cancelled on the first day of the strike, which is over plans for drivers, rather than conductors, to operate carriage doors.\nThe RMT union said safety was the key issue and support was \"rock solid\".\nA spokesman for Theresa May said the action was \"only going to cause more disruption and misery\".\nSouthern said it was operating nearly 60% of its regular timetable and nine in 10 of those trains were \"running on time\".\nA spokeswoman admitted 946 of its normal 2,242 services would be cancelled each day during the stoppage, which began at 00:01 BST and is due to end at 23:59 BST on Friday.\nSouthern's parent company Govia Thameslink (GTR) thanked passengers for their \"patience and understanding\" and called on the RMT \"to let this strike be the last\".\nSouthern rail strike: Your rights\nBut Shadow Transport Secretary Andy McDonald blamed the government for the strike, understood to be the longest on British railways since 1968.\nMr McDonald said: \"The country's biggest rail franchise is failing. Passengers are enduring the worst delays in the country, fares are up 25% and promised investment looks further away than ever.\n\"Yet the Tory government seems more interested in pursuing an ideological dust-up with rail unions than improving abysmal passenger services.\"\nLive updates on Southern strike\nLatest disruption information on BBC Travel\nThe RMT has held a series of one-day strikes since April after balloting 393 members.\nLast month, Southern, which operates services from Sussex and Surrey to London, Kent, Hampshire and Buckinghamshire, brought in a reduced timetable in response to continued cancellations and delays, blaming issues with crew availability.\nThe company has arranged queuing systems at some busy stations to cope with the evening rush, which earlier was made more challenging by a broken-down London-to-Brighton train at Gatwick Airport which forced passengers on to another service.\nA rail users' group in east Surrey said the latest disruption was \"another heavy slap in the face for poor, tired and frustrated commuters\".\nIn a statement, the Reigate, Redhill and District Rail Users' Association said: \"Members of the RMT have guaranteed jobs, a good salary and a reasonable work/life balance, whereas the long-suffering commuters are under threat of losing jobs, losing salary, losing holiday and being unable to get home to their families.\n\"The RMT leadership shows utter contempt to rail users by ruining their daily lives for the honour of pushing a button to close train doors.\"\nCorinee Graehame, a disabled train user from Hastings, said: \"It's very hard to get on a packed train when people are already sitting in disabled seats and staff don't want to help with a ramp.\n\"I have been told to just sit in my scooter, if I can get on a train.\"\nPhotographer Hannah Kenyon, 27, has paid about £100 to hire a car for the week - on top of her usual £55.40 train fare - for her journey from Hove to Emsworth.\nThe Conservative MP for Lewes, Maria Caulfield, tweeted: \"Judging by my inbox this morning the tide has turned against the unions in this industrial dispute.\"\nFellow East Sussex MP and member of the Transport Select Committee Huw Merriman has tweeted a video diary of his journey from Bexhill to Brighton via Eastbourne. He said he was \"a bit disappointed Southern rail couldn't find some buses to put as a replacement service\".\nAnd Wealden Conservative MP Nus Ghani has made representations to GTR and Transport Secretary Chris Grayling about the absence of services to Uckfield, which she said was already poorly served.\n\"Even a misery line is better than having no line at all,\" she said.\nA collapse in industrial relations\nThe situation is exactly the same today as it was five months ago. The union will not budge on having a safety-qualified guard on every train that currently has one. It will not discuss whether the driver or guard closes the train doors without that promise. And the company is not budging either.\nFor passengers, things could get a lot worse. More than 1,000 platform staff are currently balloting for strike action over the closure of some ticket offices and a new role of \"station host\".\nAt the same time, drivers on Southern and Gatwick Express are also holding a separate strike ballot. Those results will be known by the end of the month.\nOn top of that, Southern still has a chronic shortage of train crew. That is why it has an emergency timetable, cancelling 340 trains a day even when there is no strike. And that emergency timetable will continue for at least another month.\nTransport campaigners plan to hand in a \"six-foot letter\" to new Rail Minister Paul Maynard on Wednesday, urging him to \"listen to passengers, freeze fares and pay compensation\".\nRMT general secretary Mick Cash said: \"This action has been forced on us by the arrogance and inaction of Govia Thameslink and the government who have made it clear that they have no interest in resolving this dispute or in tackling the daily chaos on Southern.\n‎\"Our fight is with the company and the government who have dragged this franchise into total meltdown. We share the anger and frustration of passengers and we cannot sit back while jobs and safety are compromised on these dangerously overcrowded trains.\"\nThe RMT has called on GTR to match terms offered by ScotRail in a similar dispute.\nGTR chief executive Charles Horton said the RMT action was \"completely unacceptable, unjustified and unnecessary\" and he apologised for the \"inconvenience and disruption to passengers' lives as a result\".\nHe said the union rejected GTR's eight-point offer \"out of hand\".\nNo trains are running between:\nOther lines have a \"significantly reduced service\" between 07:30 and 18:00 only:\nSee Southern rail's map of revised services during the strike"

Four big planned changes to encourage saving were outlined by the chancellor.
|
[
"A new personal savings allowance of £1,000 will be introduced in April next year, removing the first £1,000 of savings income from income tax.\nFrom later this year, people will be able to move money in and out of Isas without infringing their tax free contribution limit.\nAnd a new \"Help to Buy\" Isa will be launched to help people save for a deposit.\nAs announced a few days ago, the government will consult on letting people who have bought annuities with their pension pots sell them, in return for a lump sum.\nMr Osborne said the new personal savings allowance would come into effect in April 2016.\nThis would, he said, create tax-free banking for almost the entire population.\nHowever, higher-rate taxpayers will benefit from a smaller personal savings allowance of only £500.\nUsers of the BBC News app tap here for the Budget Calculator.\nAnd anyone earning more than £150,000 a year will not receive the benefit of the new savings allowance at all.\nThis change, along with more flexibility for Isas, will cost taxpayers more than £1bn in 2016-17 and more than half a billion pounds each year thereafter.\nAn important knock-on effect of these changes will be that from next April, banks and building societies will no longer deduct 20% income tax automatically from savings held outside an Isa.\nThe chancellor hailed this as a major piece of tax simplification.\n\"People have already paid tax once on their money when they earn it. They shouldn't have to pay tax a second time when they save it,\" he said.\n\"With our new personal savings allowance, 17 million people will see the tax on their savings not just cut, but abolished.\"\nRichard Lloyd of the consumers' association Which? said: \"The tax break and new flexibilities on savings will prove popular with the millions who have got a raw deal on their savings in recent years.\n\"But there are still many savers whose money is languishing in extremely poor paying accounts, so the financial industry must now play fair and help people get a better return.\"\nOn the new Isa rules for what he called a \"fully flexible Isa\", Mr Osborne explained that so long as Isa money is taken out and replaced during the same tax year, such a move would not count towards the annual Isa contribution limit, which is due to rise in any case to £15,240 this coming April.\n\"If you take that money out, you lose your tax-free entitlement, and so can't put it back in,\" he said.\n\"With the fully flexible Isa, people will have complete freedom to take money out, and put it back in later in the year, without losing any of their tax-free entitlement.\"\nHowever, this new flexibility will apply to cash Isas only, and not to stocks and shares Isas.\nMr Osborne said the change would be scheduled for this autumn after consultation.\nIain McCluskey of accountants PwC said: \"The very significant Isa allowance increase over this Parliament has meant that many savers already pay no income tax on their savings.\n\"The additional flexibility on Isa contributions is a further move to encourage saving through Isas and will be welcome for those who have to dip into Isa savings on those all too frequent rainy days.\"\nHM Revenue & Customs confirmed that this new flexibility meant that someone could move out their entire Isa savings, accumulated over many years, and then reinstate them within the current tax year to resume their tax-free status.\nAs a further attempt to help first time buyers save a deposit to buy a home, a \"Help to Buy\" Isa will be created.\nWithin this, the government will add 25% to whatever is contributed by a saver.\nThe monthly maximum contribution from savers will be just £200, with the government adding just £50 a month at the most.\nThe accounts will run indefinitely once opened. But if someone accumulates £12,000 over that time, a maximum of £3,000 will be added by the taxpayer.\n\"Savers will have access to their own money and will be able to withdraw funds from their account if they need them for another purpose, but the bonus will only be made available for home purchase,\" the government said.\nThe payment of the government bonus will only be triggered if the saver buys a home worth less than £450,000 in London, or less than £250,000 anywhere else.\nPaul Smee of the Council of Mortgage Lenders said: \"Such steps are welcome. But as saving for a deposit will never become easy, we still need a clear focus on the supply of new housing that will help deliver a sustainable, affordable housing market over the long term.\"\nThe cost of the tax subsidy to the Help to Buy Isa is estimated to rise from £230m in 2016-17 to £835m by 2019-20.\nTo help pay for some of these tax concessions, the chancellor announced plans to further restrict pension tax relief.\nFrom 2016-17, the lifetime allowance - for pension savings that can be accumulated free of tax - will be cut from £1.25m to £1m.\nThat will save the taxman £300m in 2016-17, rising to nearly £600m in 2019-20.\nFrom 2018, that allowance will be indexed to the consumer prices index (CPI) and will therefore start to rise again.\nSteven Cameron of insurance firm Aegon was disappointed.\n\"A £1m pension pot may seem huge, but with improvements in health and life expectancy, people who retire at 60 may need to use their pension income to cover their costs for 30 years or more,\" he said.\n\"If you want your pension to continue to your partner and rise with inflation, £1m will buy you less than £30k a year. Many people aspire to more than that.\"\nThere will be no change to the annual allowance for pension savings, which stays at £40,000.\nMr Osborne said changing that would have involved \"penalising moderately-paid, long-serving public servants, including police officers, teachers and nurses, and instead rewarding higher-paid graduates\".\nThe change that will come into place will only affect the wealthiest pension savers.\nGovernment statistics show that among people about to retire, only 4% have pension savings worth more than £1m.\nIt also justified its move by pointing out that in 2013-14, income tax relief for pensioners was worth a total of about £34bn, and of that about two-thirds went to people in the higher-rate or additional-rate tax bands."

England manager Roy Hodgson says he had been hoping to use Thursday's friendly with Portugal as a dress rehearsal for dealing with Wales winger Gareth Bale.
|
[
"But Portugal will be without Bale's club-mate Cristiano Ronaldo, who has been granted time off after winning the Champions League with Real Madrid.\nHodgson thought facing Ronaldo would be good preparation for facing Bale.\n\"We were thinking about Gareth Bale,\" Hodgson said when he explained why Portugal had been chosen as opponents.\nBale, the world's most expensive player, scored seven goals in qualifying as Wales reached a major finals for the first time in 58 years.\n\"Of course he [Ronaldo] has been an unbelievably influential figure for all the clubs he has played for and Portugal as well, and we were thinking that Gareth Bale is in a somewhat similar position,\" Hodgson said.\n\"So when we thought Portugal, we were thinking not only about their technical qualities and the fact they are a very good football team, but they also have a special individual.\"\nWales and England meet in Lens on 16 June in Group B, which also contains Slovakia and Russia.\n\"I believe now that might not be the case [that Ronaldo will play] but we're happy with the two opponents we've had so far [Australia and Turkey]. They've certainly put us to the test,\" Hodgson said.\n\"I've been able to use quite a lot of players in those two games and we expect another tough test [against Portugal].\n\"But if we can get through that test and come away satisfied with what we've done and I can be satisfied with what I've seen, then I'd have to say the three preparation games have served their purpose.\""

"Chris Coleman has confirmed Bale for an intriguing showdown with Zlatan Ibrahimovic who was named in the Sweden side ahead of a possible move to Manchester United.\nBale has had little time to rest since helping Real win the Champions League.\n\"Balo will play a part, starting or as a substitute,\" Coleman said.\nColeman wants the Real Madrid forward to have match time with his country before their tournament begins against Slovakia next Saturday.\nBale played the full 120 minutes as Real became champions of Europe by beating Atletico Madrid on penalties in Milan last Saturday.\nThe 26-year-old was struggling with cramp throughout extra-time, but was able to score one of his team's kicks in the 5-3 shootout victory.\nBale has not played for his country since their final Euro 2016 qualifier against Andorra in October. Wales were without Bale and Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey for their last three friendlies, a draw with Northern Ireland and defeats by Ukraine and the Netherlands.\nHaving seen his side suffer without their leading players, Coleman may use the match against Sweden as an opportunity to field his strongest team before facing Slovakia.\nColeman however, has confirmed he will be without injured trio Hal Robson-Kanu, Joe Allen and Joe Ledley, who is still recovering from a broken leg sustained on 7 May.\nThe Wales manager, who recently signed a new contract, is pleased that Sweden have named a strong side including Ibrahimovic, football's most prized free agent.\n\"It's a great game for us Sweden, it's a tough game and we're really looking forward to it,\" said Coleman.\n\"But we know we're building for the first game in the tournament so that's what we're looking to get everybody ready for and give everybody a chance to be prepared for.\n\"We are glad they are going to be strong.\"\nSweden team: Isaksson; Lustig, Johansson, Granqvist, Olsson; Larsson, Kallstrom, Lewicki, Forsberg; Berg, Ibrahimovic.\nWales 0-1 Sweden, Wednesday, 3 March, 2010. A goal from then-Bolton striker Johan Elmander settled the friendly fixture at Swansea's Liberty Stadium.\nWho do you think should start at Euro 2016?

Samsung Electronics says its operating profit is likely to rise 15% in the fourth quarter from a year ago, missing market expectations.

[
"The preliminary figures show that operating profit will be 6.1tn won ($5.1bn; £3.5bn) for the October to December period, from 5.29tn won a year earlier.\nAnalysts had expected the amount to be 6.6tn won, fuelling growth concerns.\nSamsung products have been hit by weak demand in China and currency woes.\nOperating profit fell 7.5% from the previous quarter.\nSales at the world's biggest maker of memory chips and smartphones also missed forecasts at 53tn won for the period.\nSamsung does not break down its earnings results in the preliminary report, leaving analysts to speculate on how each business division is doing.\nBut analysts predict that the latest forecast is a sign that the tech giant will face another tough year of weaker gadget sales as the smartphone market is saturated.\nSamsung is facing stiff competition at the top end of the market from Apple, while cheaper Chinese rivals are gaining ground in the mid to low level range for mobile devices.\nOn Monday, chief executive Kwon Oh-hyun had warned that the firm faced challenges on weak global economic growth prospects.\nFinal earnings results for the quarter are due to be released at the end of January."

Unconfirmed reports of gunshots, later described by police as just "loud noises", have sparked evacuations at Los Angeles airport.

"People fled the airport on Sunday night amid the shooting reports, with scenes of abandoned luggage on pavements.\nTraffic to the terminal was halted and no flights were allowed to land, but operations have now resumed.\nLA police tweeted that no shots had been fired and there were no injuries. They are investigating the noises.\nThe incident follows another case of panic at a US airport, when parts of New York's JFK airport were closed two weeks ago amid reports of gunfire that later proved to be false.\nThe police and fire departments had deployed many units to the Los Angeles airport after reports of a \"security situation\" and a possible \"active shooter\".\nLos Angeles airport tweeted that an individual in a \"Zorro\" costume had been detained.\nFootage on social media showed the man sitting on a bench at a bus bay outside the airport, surrounded by armed police. He gets on the floor as requested and places his arms out wide before officers move in to detain him.\nIt was unclear whether he was responsible for the noises.\nOne passenger, Scott McDonald, told Associated Press he had been trying to disembark from a plane and had been told to get back on.\nHe said he had seen many people gathered on the tarmac.\nActress Anne Dudek told the LA Times she had been on an escalator when a man ran past saying people were being shot.\n\"People started dropping bags and running out of the terminal,\" she said. \"Panic spread.\"\nShe said she had also left the terminal and run through a parking area to her car and left the airport.\nThe Federal Aviation Administration temporarily held some Los Angeles-bound flights.\nPassengers were later allowed to return to the terminal to gather luggage left behind.\nLos Angeles International Airport (LAX) is the world's seventh busiest by traffic."

Pep Guardiola delivered the first meaningful blow in a rivalry with Jose Mourinho that will become a central part of the Premier League's narrative as Manchester City recorded a well-merited win against Manchester United at Old Trafford.
|
[
"Media playback is not supported on this device\nThe pair's history of animosity with Barcelona and Real Madrid in Spain's La Liga meant their first Premier League meeting since assuming control on either side of Manchester provided a colourful backdrop to the build-up to this derby.\nAnd when the action got under way on the field, it was City who put a marker down and put Manchester United in their place with a peerless first 40 minutes followed by resilience to maintain their 100% start to the season.\nThis was always going to be much more than the Manchester derby - this was as much about Mourinho against Guardiola on the Premier League stage, fighting for supremacy in Manchester.\nAnd this was Spaniard Guardiola's day on every level as City claimed the win and his celebrated methods were on show for all to see at Old Trafford, the fiercest enemy territory.\nMourinho was a chastened figure post-match, reduced to blaming referee Mark Clattenburg for not awarding two second half penalties for what he felt was City keeper Claudio Bravo's foul on Wayne Rooney and Nicolas Otamendi's handball.\nIt was an act of straw-clutching, although the Portuguese fully accepted City's first-half superiority when he admitted he and his players got it wrong.\nMedia playback is not supported on this device\nThe bottom line is United were second best and this was something of a cold shower for the over-excitement of some who believed 'The Special One' could apply an instant fix to the faults of the past three seasons under David Moyes and Louis van Gaal.\nMourinho's decision to play Henrikh Mkhitaryan on the right in his first start since his £25m summer move from Borussia Dortmund was a dismal failure - and he admitted some of his players struggled to cope with \"the dimension of the game\".\nThe Armenia captain was removed at half-time in a reshuffle that also saw Jesse Lingard taken off, Marcus Rashford and Ander Herrera sent on, and the completely anonymous £89m midfield man Paul Pogba and Marouane Fellaini pushed forward, with Wayne Rooney shunted out to the right.\nIn other words - Mourinho's selection went wrong.\nHe said: \"I had two or three players in the first half that, if I know what is going to happen, I don't play them. This is football, though, and sometimes players disappoint managers.\n\"It's my fault because I'm the manager and it's always my fault because it's my choice.\"\nGuardiola was bold enough to play Kelechi Iheanacho as replacement for the suspended Sergio Aguero and the 19-year-old responded with his ninth goal from just 13 shots on target in the Premier League.\nAnd his introduction of Fernando for the youngster after 53 minutes demonstrated a pragmatism that is often overlooked amid Guardiola's purist instincts. He was prepared to use a shield when required.\nCity were also prepared to work for their success, running a total of 119.63km in comparison to United's 111.34km. Guardiola demands the full package from his players.\nIt was not all perfect as his selection of the uncertain Claudio Bravo in goal ran a fine line with failure - but all's well that ends well.\nThe embraces with long-time foe Mourinho at the start and finish were cordial enough - and if Guardiola did get around to having that glass of wine in the Old Trafford manager's office when his media duties were completed it would have tasted sweet.\nManchester City made their intentions clear when they lured the most coveted man in management to Etihad Stadium - and Guardiola's team have wasted no time in making big statements of their own.\nThe Catalan has opened up with four straight Premier League wins, this victory at Old Trafford marking them out as the team to beat in the title race this season.\nIt is, of course, early days but City's ability to win with key players either suspended, injured or working their way to full fitness means a significant marker was put down in this derby win.\nIt was a win achieved without the banned Aguero and without influential captain Vincent Kompany who is nearing a return, as is summer signing Ilkay Gundogan, who was also absent.\nLeroy Sane, the £37m summer signing from Schalke, made a lively appearance as a substitute here and will be a formidable force when fully fit.\nJohn Stones was outstanding when United's second-half siege came, demonstrating why Guardiola was satisfied to spend £47.5m on the young England defender to bring him from Everton.\nKevin de Bruyne was also a key figure, scoring one goal and being involved in the other. He has been directly involved in 32 goals in 46 appearances for Manchester City, scoring 17 and assisting in 15.\nAnd when Guardiola studies the statistics, an 81.8% passing success rate will please even this perfectionist, who expressed his satisfaction with this two-dimensional City display - glorious, clinical football in the first half and solid resilience in the second.\nCity restricted United to their fourth lowest home possession share in the Premier League since the 2003-04 season, just 39.9%\nManchester City's squad looked short of inspiration and motivation in the understated presence of Manuel Pellegrini last season - this problem looks to have been cured already by Guardiola.\nIt has been an impressive start. Those with Premier League title aspirations now know what they have to beat.\nMedia playback is not supported on this device\nPep Guardiola has invested a lot of faith in Claudio Bravo after showing England goalkeeper Joe Hart the door and paying £17m to bring the 33-year-old Chile international from Barcelona.\nIt was, therefore, no surprise to hear Guardiola mounting a passionate defence of his man despite a performance that left City and their supporters living on their nerves.\nIn Bravo's defence, he has barely had any training sessions with his new team-mates and a debut at Old Trafford is always a daunting introduction.\nGuardiola's backing for his keeper, while understandable, was at odds with a display that occasionally threatened to spread panic in City's ranks.\nHe was hesitant and occasionally too slow to clear with the ball at his feet and once he came from his line to claim a first-half free-kick, Bravo had to catch it. He did not, allowing Zlatan Ibrahimovic to score and give United hope.\nGuardiola praised Bravo's willingness to take responsibility and is happy for his keeper to take a high-risk approach in exchange for the rewards he believes it brings.\nIt is too early to say whether Bravo will be an upgrade on the banished Hart but those who believe England's first-choice keeper has been sent into exile too soon will not have had their worries eased by this performance.\nThey will have to trust Guardiola's judgement - and he has not got anything wrong so far.\nWhile Mourinho bemoaned those players who struggled to cope with the unique demands of the Manchester derby, he had no such complaints about Marcus Rashford.\nMourinho said the 18-year-old looked like he was \"playing against Salford City under-18s\" in a second half performance that combined pace and a fearless approach - and almost an equaliser only for an offside Zlatan Ibrahimovic to get a touch on his goal-bound shot.\nThe question will continue and the clamour will grow for Rashford to start in an area of Mourinho's squad that is starting to look over-crowded.\nRashford was the player who put City on the back foot with his speed. It will be one of Mourinho's most urgent tasks to integrate this brilliant young talent into his team.\nIt then begs further questions, with Ibrahimovic seemingly untouchable as the main man, about where Rooney fits in and how Mourinho can shuffle his resources to maximise the potential of Rashford, Antony Martial, Mkhitaryan and Juan Mata.\nIbrahimovic had all of United's three shots on target as well as four of their six off target, so it is likely to a case of who plays with the 34-year-old Swede.\nRashford, on this showing, cannot be denied his starting place for much longer."

"Guardiola appears set to finish a season without a trophy for the first time in his managerial career.\n\"You only have to look at City today to see nothing comes very easily even with a fantastic coach,\" Demichelis said.\n\"As time goes on everyone will value the work that Manuel Pellegrini did.\"\nPellegrini won the Premier League and League Cup in his first season at the club after joining from Malaga in June 2013.\nHe finished second behind Chelsea the following year and guided City to the Champions League semi-finals in his final campaign before his contract expired in the summer of 2016.\n\"As a foreign coach in his first season in the Premier League to win the title, naturally made him an important reference,\" Demichelis, who also played under Pellegrini at River Plate and Malaga, told the World Football Show on BBC World Service.\nWith his team 11 points behind league leaders Chelsea with six games remaining, Guardiola is highly unlikely to replicate that feat.\nBeaten in Sunday's FA Cup semi-final by Arsenal, eliminated in the Champions League last 16 by Monaco and knocked out of the League Cup by rivals Manchester United, it seems that City's season is going to fall short of the Spaniard's own standards.\nCity would drop out of the Premier League top four if they lose to United in Thursday's derby at the Etihad Stadium.\n\"No silverware - it will not be a good season,\" Guardiola said in March. \"I knew that in August. Being a manager depends on results.\n\"I know what my standard was in the past and I know what is on my shoulders. I have to handle that.\""

A tuberculosis (TB) screening exercise at a Bristol school has found the disease has not been transmitted after a case in March.
|
[
"About 120 pupils and staff at the Bristol Brunel Academy in Speedwell who had come into contact with the person involved were tested for the condition.\nSeveral people were, however, found to have a \"latent\" version of the disease.\nThis means they could have been exposed to the bacteria at any time in their lives but are not a risk to others.\nHowever, there is a small chance that they may go on to develop active TB later on in life.\nThe Health Protection Agency (HPA), which carried out the screenings, has treated those found to have the latent version of the disease with a routine course of antibiotics to clear it.\nTB is a serious but curable infectious disease which normally affects the lungs.\nThe HPA's Dr Bharat Pankhania, said: \"Our tests are very sensitive and pick up evidence if you have ever been exposed to TB bacteria at any time in your life. These bacteria are hidden away inside you and may never cause illness or disease.\n\"But we further assess these people and make absolutely sure that they don't have any evidence of illness.\n\"I am reassured that a transmission has not been occurring at the school.\"\nPrincipal Brigid Allen said: \"The results of the screening show that TB has not been transmitted amongst either our pupils or our staff and we want to reassure parents that there is nothing to worry about.\n\"We're so pleased and want to thank the HPA for their help in all this.\""

"The outbreak is believed to have happened in May and involved a ward which provides care for older people.\nAccording to sources, two separate inquiries were undertaken at the hospital.\nOne investigated how the bacteria emerged at the ward in the hospital and how the outbreak was managed.\nThe second investigation was as a result of the first and involved a disciplinary matter.\nC. diff is a bacterium that causes extreme diarrhoea in some patients.\nThe families of those patients who were originally affected have been kept informed.\nThe BBC further understands that the report into the C. diff outbreak is due to be completed within the next 10 days, while the investigation into the disciplinary matter is due to conclude imminently.\nIn July, a ward at the Musgrave Park Hospital in Belfast was closed briefly and two patients affected following a C. diff outbreak."

The first black footballer to play for Liverpool has turned down an MBE nomination, saying it would be "a betrayal" to Africans who suffered at the hands of the British Empire.

"Culture Secretary Sajid Javid, joining the election campaign in Wales, said it can bring people together and celebrate \"our unity through diversity\".\nThe Games, which were held in Cardiff in 1958, could also give an economic boost to Wales, the Tories have said.\nCardiff council and the Welsh government have been exploring a possible bid for 2026.\nSpeaking ahead of his visit to Wales on Monday, Mr Javid said: \"Wales has always played an important role in the Commonwealth and having hosted the games over 60 years ago - I think it's time it came back and I'm glad to see the Welsh Conservatives will be working to make this happen.\n\"The Commonwealth Games is about bringing people together and celebrating our unity through diversity and sport is one of the very best ways to do that.\"\nHe added: \"I really hope that Wales is successful in its bid. I know well how passionate the Welsh people are about sport and I know they will want to see this bid made a reality.\"\nElsewhere on the campaign trail, Welsh Labour will bid for the support of older voters, saying it will keep free bus passes and TV licences.\nPlaid Cymru leader Leanne Wood welcomed support from SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon for parity of powers and funding for Wales with Scotland.\n\"Just as the SNP is doing for Scotland, Plaid Cymru is fighting for the best deal possible for Wales in this election,\" she said.\nThe Lib Dems are expected to restate their opposition to regional pay in the public sector.\nMeanwhile Monday marks the deadline for registering to vote in the election on May 7."

AO World, the online domestic appliance retailer, has reported deeper full-year losses, citing start-up costs and investment from its push into Europe.
|
[
"Pre-tax losses were £6.7m in the year to March 2016, from £2.9m the previous year. Revenues rose 25.7% to £599.2m.\nAO World said the widening losses reflected \"investment and trading losses incurred in Germany and start-up costs in other European territories\".\nThe retailer also announced it had appointed a new chairman.\nGeoff Cooper, who currently works at Card Factory, is to be the new chairman, succeeding Richard Rose who will step down from the position next month.\nAO World said it was growing its market share in all its product categories and added that it planned to start selling computers.\n\"Computing is a natural extension of our current categories and there is good potential for cross-selling to our existing customer base, making it an exciting opportunity for the business,\" said chief executive John Roberts.\nAO World said it was still \"in a start-up phase\" in Europe, but its German business AO.de was \"gaining traction with customers,\" while early signs at its Netherlands business, launched in March, were encouraging.\nThe firm floated on the stock exchange in 2014 with a market capitalisation of £1.2bn, a figure that surprised the City given its profits of less than £8m in 2013.\nAO World's shares were priced at 285p each when it floated on the market. The shares were trading at about 165p on Wednesday, down 1% on the day."

Yet conditions since the start of this have been in \"stark contrast\", the company added.\nAlthough UK trading is expected to improve in February and March, sales would still be \"significantly\" behind previous expectations."

A file of evidence against a man suspected of murdering a schoolgirl almost 40 years ago has been submitted to prosecutors, the BBC has learnt.
|
[
"Robert Black - who died in prison in January - killed four young girls and was believed to have murdered 13-year-old Genette Tate in Devon in 1978.\nDevon and Cornwall Police said the file runs to \"scores of pages\".\nGenette's body has not been found since she vanished while delivering evening newspapers in Aylesbeare, near Exeter.\nHer case is believed to be the longest running missing person inquiry in Britain.\nBlack, originally from Grangemouth in Scotland, was first convicted of sexual assault when he was a teenager and the delivery driver's murder victims came from Northern Ireland, England and Scotland.\nHe was convicted for killing Jennifer Cardy, nine, of County Antrim in 1981, Susan Maxwell, 11, of Northumberland in 1982, and Caroline Hogg, five, of Edinburgh in 1983 and Sarah Harper, 10, of Leeds, in 1986.\nBlack died of natural causes in Maghaberry prison, Northern Ireland.\nA senior Devon and Cornwall Police source told the BBC: \"We would like a clear statement that it [Crown Prosecution Service] would have charged Black with Genette's murder.\n\"It's the closest we can now get to justice and might offer some comfort to her family and the community.\"\nThe new file is the result of two years of work by a dedicated group of eight detectives - including some who worked on the original inquiry - from the force's Major Crime Team.\nBut, John Tate, Genette's father, said: \"It's a shame this file was not submitted earlier to the CPS.\n\"There was some talk of it being submitted last autumn, then the CPS would have had several months to decide whether to prosecute Black.\n\"That would have meant that Black would have died in January knowing that he was going to put on trial for Genette's murder.\"\nHe added he awaited the \"result of the CPS decision with interest\".\nThe BBC has been told the detectives found two new witnesses following a re-investigation of the case, including an examination of the thousands of files from the original investigation.\nThey have been re-interviewed at length, senior police sources said, and have \"strengthened the circumstantial case against Black\".\nThe witnesses' evidence \"concerns Black's behaviour\" at the time she disappeared, the sources added.\nBlack, who was serving a life sentence for the murders of four children, was arrested and questioned in 2005 over the Genette Tate case, but not charged.\nThe force sent a file to the CPS, but three years later it decided there was insufficient evidence to charge Black.\nHe denied any involvement in Genette's disappearance."

Japan has opened the door for increased imports of beef from the US, as it eased restrictions that have been in place for almost a decade.
|
[
"It will now allow the import of beef from cattle up to 30 months old.\nJapan banned US beef imports in 2003 after the outbreak of mad cow disease. It restarted imports in 2006, but only from cattle less than 20 months of age.\nUS officials said the move was likely to boost US beef exports to Japan by \"hundreds of millions\" of dollars.\nRon Kirk, the US trade representative said the decision by Japan was \"great news for American ranchers and beef companies\".\nJapan has also eased restrictions on beef imports from Canada, France and the Netherlands.\nThe new rules will take effect from 1 February.\nBefore the ban in 2003, Japan was one of the biggest markets for US beef exports.\nHowever, the ban resulted in other beef exporting countries such as Australia increasing their presence in Japan.\nSince the lifting of the ban in 2006, US firms have been trying to regain their share of the Japanese market.\nThey have achieved some success and US exports to Japan have been rising. However, shipments are yet to reach the levels seen before 2003.\n\"This move is an important step forward in paving the way toward greater export opportunities to one of our largest export markets,\" said J D Alexander, president of the National Cattlemen's Beef Association.\nHowever, some analysts were sceptical about whether the easing of restrictions would have an immediate impact on US beef exports.\n\"Australia is not just going to give up the market share they've gained,\" said Lee Schulz, a livestock economist at Iowa State University."
] |
[
"The UK and Ireland are among the countries that can now sell beef to Canada. France and Germany - the EU's biggest producers - are also included.\nThe EU Commission said it was a welcome move, as EU farmers \"are going through a particularly difficult period\".\nA Russian import ban and weaker Chinese demand have hit Europe's farm exports.\nLast month the EU announced a €500m (£365m; $567m) aid package, following many street protests by farmers.\nThe dairy sector has been hit especially hard, with many producers saying current prices are barely enough to cover their costs.\nThe Commission - the EU's top regulator - said Canada's move was \"part of a growing trend to recognise the robust, comprehensive and successful measures put in place by the EU to eradicate BSE\".\nThe spread of Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in the 1990s - linked to a fatal neurodegenerative disease in humans - led to the mass slaughter of cattle and big losses for beef farmers.\nThe US has also resumed importing beef from the EU, under strict monitoring, a process that began with Ireland in January.\nCanada has signed a far-reaching free trade agreement with the EU, which is now going through the ratification process."

Cristiano Ronaldo's 33rd goal of the season helped Real Madrid take a big step towards the Champions League quarter-finals with victory at Roma in the first leg of their last-16 tie.
|
[
"The Portugal forward struck in the second half with a deflected finish.\nRoma had their chances, particularly on the counter, with Edin Dzeko hitting the side-netting.\nHowever, Jese's low drive late on leaves Roma with it all to do in the second leg.\nRelive Real Madrid's win at Roma\nMedia playback is not supported on this device\nA goal will perhaps have been especially sweet for Ronaldo, who had walked out of a news conference on Tuesday after being questioned about his record in away matches this season.\nHe had not netted away from the Bernabeu since 29 November and, although he was quiet for large periods of Wednesday's game, a clever bit of skill produced the breakthrough.\nChasing on to a long pass, Ronaldo took one touch to bring the ball under control and gave himself a sight of goal before firing into the top corner, with his effort taking a nick off Roma skipper Alessandro Florenzi.\nThe 31-year-old could have had more after that, notably heading just wide of the far post, but the strike means he now has five away goals in the Champions League this season; more than any other player.\nThe appointment of Zinedine Zidane as Real Madrid head coach may have been a bit of a surprise but the Frenchman has made a good start, winning five and drawing one of his six league games so far.\nZidane had plenty of experience of the Champions League as a player, famously scoring a stunning winner for Real against Bayer Leverkusen in the 2002 final, but this match represented his first experience of the competition as a manager.\nWith leaders Barcelona seven points ahead of Real in La Liga, coupled with their expulsion from the Copa del Rey, the Champions League is increasingly becoming the only competition Real have a chance of winning.\nReal have historically struggled against Italian sides, having not knocked one out of a European competition in 29 years, but Zidane outlined his desire to secure an away goal by naming an attacking side that included Ronaldo, Karim Benzema and James Rodriguez, with the injured Gareth Bale remaining in Madrid.\nIn the first half, the Spanish side's play was industrious rather than fluid, but Ronaldo's goal caused the game to open up and Real had further chances to add to their lead with the Portuguese and Benzema going close.\nAs Roma pushed forward and chased an equaliser, Jese charged at a tiring defence to grab a second that should be enough to see Real through.\nRoma scraped into the last 16 after winning just one of their group stage matches and were beaten 6-1 by Barcelona in the process.\nReal Madrid, in contrast, won five of their six group games, scoring 19 goals.\nHowever, the Italians had a good game plan against Real - soaking up the pressure and hitting them on the counter - and until Ronaldo scored it was an effective tactic, with the pace of former Chelsea winger Mohamed Salah causing Real plenty of problems.\nThey also had a strong claim for a penalty when Dani Carvajal went in strongly on Florenzi inside the area, but nothing was given. With a little more luck, the result could have been different.\nRoma manager Luciano Spalletti: \"The Roma fans are used to seeing big games and know when to clap or not. The fans know the lads played well and that we didn't get the rub of the green.\n\"I must tell the players that they played well and were a touch unlucky. We have to work but we're on the right track.\"\nReal Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane: \"We're happy with the game and the result. We knew it was going to be a tough game but we fought to the end. In the first half they pressured us and that's normal in a difficult Champions League tie.\n\"Cristiano was great but then again so was everyone. Even those who did not play were important for team morale. I'm happy with Jese's goal - he deserved it for his efforts. \"\nWhat next?\nThe second leg at the Bernabeu is on 8 March."

High winds are affecting the operation to salvage the cargo ship that ran aground in the Solent.

[
"An operation to pump 3,000 tonnes of water out of the Hoegh Osaka is expected to last until Sunday.\nBut poor weather conditions has made it unsafe for the salvors to board on Saturday to finalise pumping arrangements.\nHigh winds of up to 83mph during the night caused the vessel to drag anchor for approximately 100 metres.\nThe ship had been anchored to help control its movement.\nSalvage company Svitzer described working conditions on board as \"difficult\".\nThe Hoegh Osaka has been secured two miles (3.2km) east of the Bramble Bank sandbank from which it freed itself on Wednesday.\nWater, described as being \"lightly contaminated with oil\" is being pumped from the ship's hold, which salvers say will cause the ship's 50-degree list to decrease.\nThe film of oil on the water is believed to have come from vehicles held within the hold.\nWith no power from the ship's generators, the water is being discharged using portable pumps during daylight hours.\nThe Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) said there was no evidence of any pollution.\nDivers are also waiting until conditions improve to complete an inspection of the hull which began yesterday.\nThe Queen's Harbour Master has introduced an exclusion zone of 984ft (300m) around the vessel, currently held by tugs between Cowes and Lee-on-Solent.\nSpeaking at a press conference on Thursday, Hugh Shaw, the Secretary of State's representative for maritime salvage and intervention, said: \"I've got confidence the salvors can discharge the bulk of the water from sucking underneath the oil and that will leave us with a small quantity of oil on board the vessel.\"\nThe 51,000-tonne vehicle transporter \"refloated\" itself unexpectedly at 14:00 GMT on Wednesday due to the high tide.\nIt was towed two miles east of Bramble Bank, where it was grounded on Saturday.\nAt a news conference on Tuesday, Bram Sperling of Svitzer, said there was some water inside because of a \"small opening in the vessel\" that had since been closed.\nA refloat was the preferred option to avoid further damage to the ship from the sandbank.\nSalvage experts boarded the ship on Monday and began carrying out an assessment to form a rescue plan.\nThe Singapore-registered transporter set sail for Germany at about 20:20 on Saturday, shortly before being deliberately run aground by the crew after it unexpectedly started to list.\nThere were 1,400 cars on board, including 1,200 Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles and 65 Minis, as well as 105 JCB machines and 500 tonnes of fuel.\nTwo crew members out of 25 rescued by RNLI Lifeboats and the Solent Coastguard on Saturday suffered non-life threatening injuries.\nTwo senior officers and a pilot stayed on board before being taken ashore."

A tugboat is set to join both vessels early Saturday morning and help tow the Simushir to Prince Rupert, British Colombia.\nSub Lt. Melissa Kia of Canadian Forces Base Esquimalt said three more vessels, including a US coast guard ship were also on their way.\nThe ship, with a crew of 11, lost power early on Friday morning as it made its way from the US state of Washington to Russia.\nThe captain was rescued by a Cormorant helicopter because he was injured.\nMemories of oil spills loom large in British Columbia, where residents remember the Exxon Valdez oil spill of 1989."

Until that is the Conservative Party did - achieving what had seemed to be Mission Impossible - a Tory majority.\nUntil that is David Cameron's personal triumph which triggered the near simultaneous resignation of his three principal opponents - Messrs Miliband, Clegg and Farage.\nThey did so in part because they helped to crush their partners in coalition these last five years - reducing the Liberal Democrat parliamentary party to a size when it can fit into two London taxis and still have two seats to spare.\nIn part because the extraordinary tidal wave of support for the SNP swept dozens of once safe Labour seats away.\nIn part because Nigel Farage persuaded millions to vote for him but secured just one seat - not, though, the one he was standing in.\nBut - and this is critical - because Labour performed worse overall than it had under Gordon Brown in the immediate aftermath of the worst financial crisis of modern times.\nThe result - the men who thought that today or sometime soon they'd be running this country's economic and foreign policies have now joined the unemployment register.\nHow the UK voted\nFind your constituency's result\nMapping Scotland's dramatic change\nThis, then, was David Cameron's day.

"Donald Trump hasn't made a secret of his dislike of Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly, with the duo having had numerous public clashes, so it was a surprise to find out his daughter, Ivanka Trump, was spotted having breakfast with the broadcaster at the Four Seasons hotel in New York. Not only that, but they talked for two hours, according to Politico Playbook. Talking of surprises, October typically has lots of them, so we've looked at whether they ever swing a US election.\nMeanwhile, Trump Halloween masks are flying out of the shops, outselling Clinton masks by 55% to 45%, according to the Spirit Halloween costume chain. The top reason why Americans choose a Trump mask is to be funny, while Clinton is typically chosen because people like her, their survey says.\nInterestingly, the store's best-selling Halloween mask has correctly forecast the outcome of every presidential election since 1996, according to NBC.\nIn other news, not content with blaming the media and the \"Clinton machine\" for \"rigging the election,\" Mr Trump has now directed his anger at social media, lashing out at Facebook, Twitter and Google for \"burying the FBI criminal investigation of Clinton\".\nBut as Mashable points out, a quick glance at Google News on Sunday showed the FBI investigation was the top result, both #Election2016 and the Clinton were at the top of Twitter's \"featured tweets\" section and it's hard to track what's trending on Facebook because it's personalised, so it's not entirely clear what the Republican candidate believes has been buried.\nMeanwhile, proving that Donald Trump isn't the only candidate that can go on a twitter rant, independent presidential candidate Evan McMullin unleashed a Twitterstorm at Mr Trump after his rival called him the \"puppet of a loser\" on Fox News.\nChannelling a bit of Mrs Clinton - who drew comparisons in the presidential debates between her 30 years of public service with Mr Trump's bid for stardom on the Apprentice - the former CIA officer attacked Mr Trump: \"Yes you've never heard of me because while you were harassing women at beauty pageants, I was fighting terrorists abroad.\"\nBut it wasn't just Mr Trump that was the subject of his wrath. He also threw some punches at Mrs Clinton.\nFinally remember the story about Mr Trump's tax returns at the beginning of the month? It seems they definitely won't be made public before the election, meaning he will be the first presidential nominee since Gerald Ford, in the 1970s, to not release his tax returns during the campaign.\nAnd if you are confused about how two such such unpopular candidates rose to the top of their parties, watch our video explainer below.\n66%\nThe number of likely voters who are Republicans or lean that way that disapprove of House Speaker Paul Ryan's decision not to campaign for Donald Trump, according to a new ABC News/Washington Post poll.\nHillary Clinton is off to Ohio for two campaign events in Cleveland and Cincinnati. It's a key battleground state and the Real Clear Politics polling average currently has her rival ahead 45% to 44%. Her running mate Tim Kaine is holding events in North Carolina.\nMeanwhile, Donald Trump will be campaigning in Michigan, holding rallies in Grand Rapids and Warren.\nWho will win? Play our game to make your call"

The body of the Russian ambassador assassinated by a Turkish policeman in Ankara has been flown home.
|
[
"Andrei Karlov was shot by Mevlut Mert Altintas, 22, nine times as he gave a speech on Monday, apparently in protest at Russia's involvement in Aleppo.\nOn Tuesday afternoon, Karlov's coffin was carried across Esenboga airport's tarmac, draped in a Russian flag.\nHe was accompanied to a waiting plane, sent by Moscow, by an honour guard of six Turkish soldiers.\nA short ceremony, attended by Ankara's top diplomats and Turkey's Deputy Prime Minister Tugrul Turkes, took place before Karlov left the country for the last time.\nIn highly unusual scenes for a Muslim country, a Russian Orthodox priest said prayers and swung incense over the coffin, while a Turkish soldier stood holding a picture of the murdered diplomat and Karlov's widow Marina wept.\nMrs Karlova was present when Altintas opened fire on her husband, who took up his posting in Ankara in 2013.\nThe plane carrying his body later touched down in Moscow.\nIt was not clear if the gunman, an Ankara riot police member who was later shot dead in a gun fight with Turkish officers, had links to any militant group.\nHowever, Russia and Turkey agreed quickly the assassination was an act of \"provocation\" with Russian President Vladimir Putin saying it was \"undoubtedly... aimed at disrupting the normalisation\" of bilateral ties and the \"peace process in Syria\".\nThey have vowed to work together to find out who is behind the murder of Karlov. Russian investigators arrived in Turkey to help on Tuesday.\nMr Turkes also paid his respects to Karlov at Tuesday's ceremony, describing him as the man who \"has become the eternal symbol of Turkish-Russian friendship\".\nIn his time in Ankara, the veteran diplomat, 62, who had served as Soviet ambassador to North Korea for much of the 1980s, had to grapple with a major crisis when a Turkish plane shot down a Russian jet close to the Syrian border.\nDemanding a Turkish apology, Moscow imposed damaging sanctions - notably a freeze on charter flights by Russian tourists - and the two countries only recently mended ties.\nMeanwhile, a senior Turkish government official told the Associated Press that the killing was \"fully professional, not a one-man action\" and that the attack was well-planned.\nPolice have arrested six people over the killing, including Altintas's mother, father, sister and three other relatives, as well as his roommate."

"He quoted an Islamic teaching referring to jihad: \"We are the ones who pledged loyalty to [the Prophet] Muhammad to fight jihad as long as we live.\"\nHe also shouted \"Allahu Akbar,\" or \"God is great\".\nSwitching to native-sounding Turkish, he then said: \"Don't forget about Syria, don't forget about Aleppo. All those who participate in this tyranny will be held accountable.\"\nHe was identified by Interior Minister Suleyman Soylu as a 22-year-old policeman.\nHe said Altintas was born on 24 June 1994 in in the town of Soke in quiet, conservative Aydin province in western Turkey, and attended police college in the coastal city of Izmir to the north.\nHe had been working in Ankara's riot police department for two-and-a-half years but was apparently on leave at the time of his attack.\nWhat investigators have to decide is whether he was motivated by the destruction of eastern Aleppo, or was part of a wider plot to derail relations with Russia.\nUnconfirmed reports said he had been suspended for several weeks until mid-November because of suspected links to the plotters behind Turkey's failed July coup. Pro-government media produced a document showing he had also taken three days' leave immediately after the coup.\nAltintas shaved and put on a suit and tie in a nearby hotel he was staying at prior to Monday's attack.\nHe set off a metal detector on entering the exhibition, but was waved through after showing his official police ID.\nHe is pictured standing behind the ambassador just before launching the attack at about 19:05 local time (16:05 GMT). He fired 11 times, nine times at the ambassador and twice in the air.\nAfter he shot the ambassador and terrified onlookers, he refused to surrender and exchanged fire with police for about 15 minutes before they shot him dead.\nFamily members including his father, mother and sister were then immediately detained for questioning at their homes in Soke.\nOutspoken Ankara mayor Melih Gokcek said on his Twitter account that Atlintas may have had links to the movement of US-based Islamic cleric Fethullah Gulen.\nHowever, the Gulenists have condemned the attack on the Russian ambassador and rejected any links to the attacker.\nAnd although reports of potential links have begun to emerge, none has been proven."

"The biopic about the relationship between politicians Ian Paisley and Martin McGuinness premiered at the Venice Film Festival this month.\nLondon-born Spall and Dubliner Meaney join an acclaimed cast of actors who have tried to perfect Northern Irish pronunciation - with mixed success.\nBBC News NI trawled through the cinematographic archives to bring you five memorable attempts:\n5. Natascha McElhone - Ronin (1998)\nThe English actress took on the role of Belfast IRA operative, Deirdre, who is part of a team of hired mercenaries in Paris trying to steal a mysterious and heavily guarded briefcase.\nUnfortunately for McElhone, her accent kept flip-flopping from a heavily southern Irish dialect to the actress's own dulcet tones.\nBut she wasn't alone at messing up the accent.\n4. Sean Bean - Patriot Games (1992)\nSean Bean's version of the Northern Irish accent dominated Patriot Games - in a bad way.\nThe movie also stars Harrison Ford, who plays retired CIA analyst Jack Ryan. His family witnesses a terrorist attack on the Northern Ireland secretary of state.\nWho's responsible for the attack? Sean Bean, of course, doing his best (or worst) Belfast accent as a member of the Provisional IRA.\nThere are several other Northern Irish accent attempts by other actors in the film that would make viewers cringe, but Bean's was just the one that stood out the most.\n3. Brad Pitt - The Devil's Own (1997)\nNow of course, it wouldn't be fair to lay all the focus on actors who can't seem to grasp the way Northern Irish people speak. Many English and Irish actors have failed at doing American accents over the course of film history.\nBut for veteran US actor Brad Pitt, who has managed various accents throughout his career, it seems the Belfast brogue was just too much to master.\nHe played Belfast IRA man Francis \"Frankie\" McGuire, who leaves Northern Ireland for the United States and ends up exchanging gunfire with (guess who?) Harrison Ford.\nNatascha McElhone also makes an appearance in the movie... maybe she decided to star in Ronin the following year to have her own go at the accent.\n2. Richard Gere - The Jackal (1997)\nAcclaimed American actor Richard Gere certainly didn't have the worst Northern Irish accent ever heard on film, but the veteran star didn't exactly do a great job either.\nHe plays Declan Mulqueen, a former IRA sniper (are you seeing a pattern here?) who the FBI turn to for help to identify an assassin known as the Jackal.\nIf only Gere had turned to someone for help with his accent.\n1. Tommy Lee Jones - Blown Away (1994)\nWe've saved the best for last - sorry, Tommy Lee Jones. While he's renowned for his role as one of the Men In Black, his performance in Blown Away only lives on because of his poor Belfast accent attempt.\nThe American actor plays a convicted Northern Irish terrorist, Ryan Gaerity, who escapes from prison and heads to the United States to seek revenge on his old friend and former IRA member, Liam McGivney, now living as a bomb squad officer in Boston.\nBoth he and Jeff Bridges, who plays McGivney, fail to master the Northern Irish twang.\nFrom the stereotypically Irish names, to the Irish dancing scenes, it is worth a watch even just for a chuckle.\nNorthern Irish accents have two major historical influences acting on them that make them unique from those of the Republic of Ireland or elsewhere.\nThese are from Scotland and from the English North and Midlands. This means that anyone trying to sound as if they are from Ulster needs first to move away from sounding generally \"Irish\", adopting some distinctly home-grown features instead.\nThey have to wrestle with a complication in whether vowels are pronounced \"long\" or \"short\": for example, vowel sounds tend to be drawn out before \"v\", \"th\", and \"z\" sounds, but to be short when they precede the sounds \"p\", \"t\", and \"k\".\nAll this means that an actor cannot get away with simply sounding \"Irish\" if they need realistically to represent Northern Irish speech.\nThey need a good voice coach who can alert them to a raft of features that are the product of complicated social and political forces acting over a long period, that have regional and social variations and that are constantly changing.\nIt can be done and it can be done without studying the huge volume of technical literature which experts have produced to describe the subtleties.\nBut only the really gifted actor, advised by an equally gifted tutor, can be expected to master it.\nIt seems the Northern Irish lilt is not just tough to master, it's also not very popular.\nIn 2005, a survey of accents for the BBC found that the most unpleasant voice was that of the former DUP leader, Ian Paisley.\nHowever, it wasn't all bad news. The BBC Voices survey said people from Northern Ireland were also the \"most proud\" of their accents.\nMaybe that's because they're the only ones who can do them properly."

US senators have voted overwhelmingly to impose fresh sanctions on Russia over its alleged interference in last year's election.
|
[
"They also agreed, by 97-2, to set up a process by which Congress can block any attempt by President Trump to scale back those sanctions.\nThe legislation was filed as an amendment to an Iran sanctions bill.\nIt comes amid concerns that members of Mr Trump's campaign team colluded with Russia over the election.\nPresident Trump and Moscow have always denied any collusion.\nA number of investigations into the allegations have been opened in Washington, including a justice department probe led by former FBI director Robert Mueller.\nThe new sanctions will target:\nThe measures need the approval of the House of Representatives and to be signed into law by President Trump, although they are thought to have enough Congressional support to override any veto.\nThe Senate vote was welcomed by both Republicans and Democrats.\n\"It's time to respond to Russia's attack on American democracy with strength, with resolve, with common purpose, and with action,\" said Republican Senator John McCain.\nSenate Minority Leader Charles Schumer called it as \"bipartisan as it gets\". The only two senators not to vote for the bill were Republicans Rand Paul and Mike Lee.\nSecretary of State Rex Tillerson had agreed \"with the sentiment\" of holding Russia accountable but had urged Congress not to pass any legislation that could harm a \"constructive dialogue\" with Moscow.\nUS Attorney General Jeff Sessions has been one of Trump's team facing allegations of holding undisclosed meetings with Russian officials during the election.\nHe told a Senate committee on Tuesday that any suggestion he colluded with the Kremlin was an \"appalling and detestable lie\"."

"Mr Trump tweeted that it would be premature to consider any relaxation \"until the Ukrainian and Syrian problems are solved\".\nThe president also said he would work \"constructively\" with Russia after meeting President Putin last week.\nRussia meanwhile has insisted that it will not change its policies in Ukraine and Syria because of the sanctions.\n\"Our policy on Syria and on Ukraine has never been and will never be determined by the pressure of sanctions applied by the USA,\" parliamentary international affairs spokesman Konstantin Kosachev said.\nHe said that US policy towards Russia was not determined by the requirements of international relations but by \"the zigzags of US domestic policy and [the] confrontation between [President] Trump and Congress\".\nUS Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, who is visiting Ukraine, on Sunday called on Russia to take the \"first step\" to bring an end to the separatist conflict in the east of the country.\nHe said the sanctions against Russia would remain \"until Moscow reverses their actions\".\nThe secretary of state said it was incumbent on Russia to make sure the Minsk peace agreement, which for Ukraine was fully implemented.\nThe war in Ukraine, along with Russia's annexation of Crimea in 2014 and its military backing of Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad, have strained ties between the two countries.\nUS Senators last month voted overwhelmingly to impose fresh sanctions on Russia over its alleged interference in last year's US election.\nThe senators also agreed to set up a process by which Congress could block any attempt by President Trump to scale back the sanctions."

China has launched a new aircraft carrier in the latest sign of its growing military strength.
|
[
"It is the country's second aircraft carrier, after the Liaoning, and the first to be made domestically.\nThe as-yet unnamed ship was transferred into the water in the north-eastern port of Dalian, state media said. It will reportedly be operational by 2020.\nIt comes amid heated rhetoric between the US and North Korea and ongoing tensions in the South China Sea.\nChina has had only one operational aircraft carrier, the Liaoning, which it bought from Ukraine and refitted.\nThe US has deployed warships and a submarine to the Korean peninsula, prompting an angry reaction from North Korea. China has urged calm.\nWhy Beijing should lead on the North Korean crisis\nWhy is the South China Sea contentious?\nThe sight of a bottle of champagne hitting the bow of a new Chinese-built aircraft carrier will worry many.\nWestern military intelligence will be poring over the television footage. For them it's not emotional: cold calculations are being made.\nThey see a not quite finished vessel, a few years from full service, partly based on Soviet-era design.\nIt's technologically inferior to the ten aircraft carriers being used by the United States Navy - but there's no doubt that it's a big step for China.\nChina's aircraft carrier programme is a state secret, but it's hard to imagine this country being satisfied with two of them.\nThe US says all options are on the table to remove North Korea's nuclear weapons - and it is using the USS Carl Vinson battle group to press the point.\nThat's the kind of power that China wants - and that's why we haven't seen the last Chinese aircraft carrier rolling off the production line in the Dalian shipyard.\nThe new carrier is touted as a significant upgrade from the Liaoning, which was built more than 25 years ago and is a refurbished ship from the days of the Soviet Union.\nIt has been seen by some analysts as a kind of training vessel in preparation for the new carrier, our correspondent says.\nBut China has been modernising its armed forces recently as its economy expands.\nIn March, it announced it would increase its military budget by about 7% this year - the second year in a row that increases have been less than 10%, after nearly 20 years of larger increases.\nChina's defence budget remains smaller than that of the US, however.\nWhile China's military spending will be about 1.3% of the country's projected GDP in 2017, the US spends roughly 3% of its economic output on the military - and the US economy is larger, so the dollar value difference is enormous.\nUS President Donald Trump has also proposed a 10% increase in the military budget.\nChinese state news agency Xinhua said work had started on China's latest aircraft carrier in 2013.\nThe launch was attended by the vice-president of China's central military commission, Fan Changlong.\nOfficials smashed a bottle of champagne on the ship's hull as \"magnificent patriotic songs\" played on loudspeakers and nearby ships sounded their horns in celebration, reported Xinhua.\nThe defence ministry said previously that it would carry China's J-15 aircraft along with other planes, and that it would use conventional rather than nuclear propulsion."

"China's unilateral establishment of an air defence identification zone (ADIZ) demonstrates President Xi Jinping's resolve to defend China's territorial integrity.\nIt is the most striking act of military escalation since he became China's top leader and top military chief one year ago.\nNevertheless, Chinese leaders will repudiate any criticism, pointing out the imposition of Japan's existing ADIZ in the region extending over China's claimed territory.\nIn the absence of transparency in Chinese defence spending, analysts commonly resort to the study of strategic signalling by the People's Liberation Army (PLA) - and the creation of the ADIZ amounts to a very strong signal from the military leadership.\nThe imposition of the ADIZ is resonant of the PLA's missile blockade of Taiwan in 1996, when former Chinese President Jiang Zemin ordered the unilateral establishment of air and maritime exclusion zones during a series of missile tests to the north and south of Taiwan.\nThe ADIZ declaration confirms that the Diaoyu/Senkaku islands are a \"core concern\" for China; it places the archipelago in the same category as the South China Sea and Taiwan.\nChina's defence white paper released in April holds some obvious clues to recent PLA actions. Japan is described as \"making trouble\" over the island dispute, while the US military pivot to Asia has created regional tension, according to the document.\nOver the last decade, populist nationalism in China has been fuelled by an official narrative of humiliation at the hands of the West. Such sentiment has been tempered by adherence to Deng Xiaoping's \"hide and bide\" policy of strategic restraint.\nRecently, however, demonstrations of Chinese military power would suggest that Xi Jinping may be prepared to overlook this policy.\nSource: aviationdevelopment.org\nChina's new regional identity as an economic powerhouse with an increasingly potent military has made the humiliation narrative less relevant; a sense of national pride is now pervasive. Chinese sabre-rattling is often a reflection of domestic sentiment and a form of public appeasement.\nThis latest gesture comes in the wake of significant military tension in the region.\nIn January 2013, Japan's Ministry of Defence accused the PLA Navy of directing fire control radar onto a Japanese naval vessel not far from the disputed islands. China vehemently denies that such hostility took place.\nChina's best option to maintain escalation dominance in the absence of a permanent military presence in the Senkaku region is the establishment of the ADIZ.\nThe greatest red line for China would be the establishment of manned positions on the islands by Japan, an action which could prompt a swift escalation in hostility.\nBoth countries have avoided such actions thus far; however, recently China has flown drone sorties close to the disputed region, prompting fighter scrambles by Japan.\nAnother recent development was the roll-out of China's first stealth drone, which came soon after the maiden flight of the J-31 stealth fighter earlier this year.\nQ&A: China-Japan islands row\nAll of these weapons systems are still in the developmental phase but they emphasise the success of Chinese military modernisation over the last decade.\nAnd while China is far away from becoming a global military power, US defence experts have noted that China has been able to concentrate formidable military capabilities in its own backyard. Some analysts suggest that in certain areas, the PLA may be able to rival US capabilities in the region.\nMost significantly, the ADIZ is symbolic of China's persistent anger at the regular surveillance and intelligence gathering sorties mounted by the US military at sea and in the air along China's borders.\nOne particularly sensitive episode was the loss of a Chinese fighter pilot killed in a collision with a US surveillance aircraft on an intelligence gathering mission over the South China Sea in 2001.\nChinese leaders will argue that the establishment of the zone is designed to avoid such incidents, but given the extremely fast reaction times required for air interdiction and the relative inexperience of both the Chinese and Japanese air forces, the potential for swift escalation and possible miscalculation will increase.\nThe proximity of the US 7th Fleet in Japan and the regular operations mounted by the US military in the ADIZ area mean that the Pentagon will be extremely resistant to comply with air identification protocols demanded on China's own terms, as will the Japanese military.\nThe creation of an air identification zone also belies Chinese confidence in its own command and control networks and its ability to mount air surveillance over a large expanse of the East China Sea.\nThe US response may be to up the tempo of its own military drills planned for the area, forcing the PLA into a defensive response, testing both Xi Jinping's resolve and his chain of command.\nAlexander Neill is the Singapore-based Shangri-La Dialogue Senior Fellow for Asia-Pacific Security at the International Institute for Strategic Studies"

"Arafat Jaradat, 30, appeared to have died of a heart attack on Saturday, the Israeli prison service said.\nPalestinians said an autopsy performed on Sunday revealed signs of torture, but Israelis said injuries were probably from attempts at resuscitation and that key tests were still needed.\nIsrael has launched an investigation into what happened.\nMr Jaradat's death comes after a week of violent clashes between the Israeli army and Palestinian youths over the continued detention of four hunger strikers.\nThe clashes continued on Sunday, fuelled by news of Mr Jaradat's death.\nStone-throwing protesters in the West Bank towns of Hebron, Ramallah, Nablus, Jenin and elsewhere faced off with Israeli soldiers deploying tear gas and stun grenades.\nOne Palestinian man was said to have been seriously wounded after being hit with live rounds.\nIn Gaza City, women gathered with flags and posters to protest at the conditions of more than 4,500 Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli jails.\nAt least 3,000 Palestinian prisoners are believed to have refused meals on Sunday in protest at Mr Jaradat's death.\nMr Jaradat, a father of two from the village of Sair, near Hebron, in the southern West Bank, died suddenly on Saturday in Israeli's Megido prison.\nHe was arrested last week on suspicion of throwing stones at Israeli soldiers.\nPalestinian human rights groups have suggested Mr Jaradat died either during or shortly after interrogation.\nOn Sunday, Mr Jaradat's body underwent an autopsy attended by a Palestinian pathologist.\nA preliminary findings statement said that \"no signs of external injury were found apart from marks of resuscitation and a small friction on the right side of the chest\".\nBut it added that \"the preliminary findings are not sufficient to determine the cause of death\", saying the results of additional tests had not yet been received.\nThis judgment was dismissed by Palestinian Minister of Prisoners Issa Karake, who said the Palestinian doctor attending the autopsy had told him there was no sign of a heart attack.\n\"The evidence corroborates our suspicion that Jaradat died as a result of torture, especially since the autopsy clearly proved that the victim's heart was healthy,\" Mr Karake said in a statement.\n(Source: Israel Prison Service December 2012)\nHe called for an independent international inquiry into Israel's treatment of Palestinian detainees.\nEarlier, an envoy for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made \"an unequivocal demand\" to the Palestinian Authority to calm the surge of protests.\nBut a senior aide to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas blamed Israel for the upsurge in anger - and analysts say the protests seem likely to continue in light of the claims surrounding the death of Mr Jaradat, who is due to be buried on Monday.\nA statement from the office of Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad on Saturday expressed \"deep sorrow and shock over the martyrdom of prisoner Arafat Jaradat\".\nAs of December 2012, Israel held 4,517 Palestinians in its jails.\nOf these 1,031 are being held until the conclusion of legal proceedings, 178 are in administrative detention and 170 are under 18 years of age.\nIsraeli officials say they use administrative detention when they fear an immediate risk to security or to protect informants.\nThe Palestinian Prisoners' Club said the number of inmates on open-ended hunger strike had climbed to 11 from four."

"Khader Adnan, 37, an Islamic Jihad activist, had been held for more than a year without charge under the Israeli \"administrative detention\" policy.\nThe hunger strike had left him in critical condition. He ended it on 28 June following a deal with Israel securing his release.\nGaza-based Islamic Jihad had threatened violence if he died.\nMr Adnan was arrested as part of a wave of Palestinian detentions following the kidnap and murder of three young Israelis in June 2014.\nMr Adnan, who comes from Jenin in the occupied West Bank, has been arrested a number of times by Israel.\nHe previously held a hunger strike in 2012 to secure his release.\nUnder \"administrative detention\" Israel can hold suspects indefinitely for renewable six-month periods. The controversial measure has been criticised by human rights groups."

"Froch told BBC Radio 5 live's Friday Sports Panel that he is set to play \"wing man\" to Hollywood actor Jason Statham in a three-part crime series.\nThe four-time world super-middleweight champion says he is undergoing acting lessons to prepare for the role.\n\"I'm dipping my toe in the water for a bit of acting,\" the 38-year-old said.\n\"I've just been reading the script this morning, so it may come to fruition or it may not.\n\"It's crime in London, it's all going off and there's terrorists going off, and Jason's tackling it through the Metropolitan Police.\"\nFour-time world super-middleweight champion Froch retired in July 2015, 14 months after his last fight, when he knocked out George Groves at Wembley Stadium to retain the WBA and IBF titles.\nFroch's only defeats in his 35-fight professional career over 13 years came against Mikkel Kessler in 2010 and American Andre Ward in 2011, although he beat the Dane in a 2013 rematch.\nThe Nottingham fighter still believes he could win another world title, but says family commitments and the prospect of 12 weeks of hard training have persuaded him to rule out a comeback.\n\"I think about a comeback every day, but I am realistic,\" he told Friday Sports Panel.\n\"I am 40 years old next year. It is not just the fight, it is the 12-week training camp, the intensity, the dieting, and then being away from my kids.\"\n\"But as a retired athlete I still look at the super-middleweight division and think: 'James DeGale - I can beat him. George Groves - I beat him at Wembley in front of 80,000 people.'\nFroch, who is also set to appear in a Terry Stone film called \"Once Upon a Time in London\", follows a long tradition of sporting stars who have appeared on the silver screen.\nHis mini-series co-star Statham, who starred in the action thriller \"The Transporter\" trilogy, competed for England in the diving competition at the 1990 Commonwealth Games in Auckland.\nFormer heavyweight champion Mike Tyson played a cameo role in the Hollywood film \"The Hangover\", while Irish former middleweight champion Steve Collins held a minor part in the British action film \"Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels\".\nFormer Manchester United footballer Eric Cantona won critical acclaim for a series of roles in French independent cinema, and in the 2009 Ken Loach film \"Looking for Eric\", while a number of US sports stars, including wrestler Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, and former American football star OJ Simpson, have appeared in Hollywood films.\nFormer Wimbledon and Leeds United footballer Vinnie Jones is arguably the most successful sportsman-turned-actor that Britain has produced.\nJones, 51, made his big-screen debut in \"Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels\" in 1998, then starred in the 2001 film \"Mean Machine\", the British remake of the Burt Reynolds movie \"The Longest Yard\".\nJones also starred alongside action stars Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger in the 2013 thriller \"Escape Plan\"."
