From fashionable teenagers dressed in their finest clothes to an older woman simply sitting on a bench with her walking stick, this series of photographs capture what people looked like when they ventured out to the mall three decades ago. The photo series called 'Mall Series,' offers a glimpse of the teenagers, staff, and shoppers who were nicknamed 'Mall Rats,' and enjoyed nothing better than spending hours in the shopping centers in the 1980s. They were taken by Massachusetts-based photographer Stephen DiRado in the downtown Worcester Galleria. Girls just wanna have fun: In this image, one girl sports a Mohawk hairstyle while the other shows a jacket with 'drug free youth' on it . His images exposed the sense of freedom that teenagers felt when they were allowed to hang out in the mall far away from their parents and close to their peers. Meanwhile, other images capture sales staff looking less than enthusiastic about flogging goods, like toothpaste and toothbrushes, to passing shoppers. DiRado's images also manage to show teenagers kissing behind a phone booth and a group of guys dressed in their finest clothes just to hang out. The photographer spent over three years painstakingly photographing the hairstyles, clothes, and demeanor of the characters who roamed around the mall in the now-closed Worcester Galleria. His project begun in 1984, shortly after he got a job teaching at nearby Clark university,. He was given permission to photograph the mall and the people in it and became such a regular fixture that when the teenagers became rowdy, security staff would allow him to photograph the scene before they would step in to break up the trouble. For sale: These sales girls look more interested in gossiping than selling the toothbrushes and toothpaste spread out on their table . B-boys: These cool dudes are wearing 1980s Hip Hop fashion and are decked out in sneakers while one guy is wearing leather gloves . But he was asked not to photograph anything obscene, according to Feature Shoot, but still managed to amass a collection of thousands of images featuring characters of all ages. Matriarch: This woman is sitting on a bench with her walking stick and is wearing a fur coat to keep her warm whilst in the mall . Telephone boxes: These phone booths hide a pair of teenagers behind it who have stolen a few moments to be alone . The photographer believes that mall life in the 1970s and 1980s signified a potent shift for American youth culture. He said it was a time when the middle class Baby Boomers and Generation X came of age within the walls of shopping centers like Worcester Galleria. Security guards: The photographer became such a regular fixture in the mall that when the teenagers became rowdy, security staff would allow him to photograph the scene before they would step in to break up the trouble . Closed: This shop appears to be offering phones and other goods and invites customers to 'come in and see' what they've got . Boom box: This dapper guy has brought his boom box to the mall, maybe he hopes his stereo will help him attract the ladies . Day trip: Three women sit behind a disabled man in the Worcester Galleria, all seem to be making a day of it and are dressed in heavy coats . Reading: This woman is reading a newspaper on a bench in the mall, she appears to be reading about what's on offer in Sears . Ultimately, he believes his images also point to the beginning of the end of the 1980s mall scene. In a few short years, the Worcester Galleria would fail, its temporary occupants forced out as times changed. Today, his images provide a flashback of life over 30 years ago. Make-up: This teenager is applying thick lipstick to her lips and is showing off the latest in 1980s fashion along with a frizzy hairstyle . Small shops: This corridor appears to be where smaller boutiques were housed as a salesman shows off a selection of jewellery . Family: This mom and son have taken a break from shopping, but he is already wearing a classic 1980s jacket and bobble hat combination . Chic: This teenager has just finished a bite to eat and is wearing a leather jacket, wide glasses, and a broad belt over her pants .

BBC's director General Lord Hall, pictured, wants to target iPlayer users . Enforcement officers working on behalf of the BBC are being offered bonuses of up to £1,000 a month to pursue people who fail to pay the TV licence fee. Almost 200,000 people are taken to court each year accused of failing to pay the £145.50 fee. They risk a £1,000 fine, a criminal record and even jail. Now private firm Capita, which runs the BBC's licensing service, has launched a major recruitment drive to hire extra 'enforcement officers' to hunt down even more fee dodgers. Potential employees were told they could double their basic salaries with commission for collecting the evidence the BBC needs to prosecute householders. A Capita regional manager said: 'A decent officer, hitting targets nine times out of ten, in London, is [on] £30k plus, quite easily.' Enforcement officers are offered a basic salary of £14,000, which rises to £17,000 in London, but they can as much as double this with commission – the equivalent of an extra £1,000 a month. Capita's two-day recruitment drive began last week, on the same day Culture Secretary Sajid Javid called for a review into decriminalising non-payment of the licence fee. The BBC is responsible for more than one in ten criminal prosecutions, leading to complaints these are clogging up the criminal courts. Last night Tory MP Andrew Bridgen called on the BBC to review how it collects the fee. He said: 'I'm sure the public will come forward with some evidence of the heavy-handed way licence fee collection is enforced. 'I know from the stories sent to me that there'll be some pretty harrowing accounts. 'I personally know people who have felt so intimidated by enforcement officers that they have paid for a TV licence even when they haven't owned a television. 'They couldn't stand the stress of the aggressive methods and officers knocking on the door.' At a recruitment day, aspiring officers were told the purpose of the role is to 'maximise sales for the BBC' and 'enforce prosecution proceedings by taking statements under caution'. Once an officer has taken 30 statements from householders in a week they can start earning commission. These are higher if customers pay in full on the doorstep. There is a smaller bonus if customers choose to pay in instalments – in case they cancel payments – or if those not at home end up taking out a licence after a calling card is left at their address. This is considered an 'indirect sale'. Last night critics said these bonuses could encourage officers to harass householders for upfront payments. Private firm Capita, which runs the BBC's licensing service, has launched a major recruitment drive to hire extra 'enforcement officers' to hunt down even more fee dodgers (file pic) John O'Connell of the TaxPayers' Alliance said: 'It doesn't seem right that these officers are incentivised to push for full payments over instalments, when the whole reason some people may not be paying on time is that they're short of cash.' In 2012, 193,049 people were prosecuted for not paying for a TV licence, accounting for one in nine of all cases in the magistrates' courts. Most of those found guilty were fined up to £1,000 and given a criminal record, and between 50 and 70 viewers are sent to jail each year after they fail to pay the court fines. Mr Javid last week said a review of licence fee enforcement 'needs to begin now'. He said: 'In 2012/13, almost 200,000 people ended up in court accused of not buying a TV licence. 'More than 50 were sent to prison. When over 10 per cent of magistrates' court cases concern this one offence, you have to ask whether the current system is really working. 'The Government is committed to a review of decriminalisation once the Deregulation Bill receives Royal Assent. But we can't afford to wait that long. This needs to begin now.' Last month the BBC's director general Lord Hall said viewers who avoid paying the licence by only watching catch-up shows on iPlayer could still have to pay. He said: 'It could be modernised again so it applies to watching BBC programmes both live and on iPlayer. This is for the Government to decide, but worth considering.' In June, the Daily Mail revealed that 463,846 people avoided buying a TV licence through the iPlayer loophole, declaring they had not owned a set or watched live shows in the past year. A TV Licensing spokesman said: 'In 2013/14 licence fee evasion cost the BBC between £196million and £235million in lost revenue, so it's important that we minimise evasion to ensure as much money as possible goes towards BBC programmes. 'We do everything we can to make sure people are aware of their legal obligations and are given every opportunity to pay for a TV licence.'

Scotland Yard detectives working in the Algarve resort have pulled up manhole covers and are analysing the network of pipes below using micro cameras and fibre-optic cables.

Manhole covers were lifted and cameras dropped down to survey the complex network of pipes . Discovery: The hole has been been subject to intense police investigation since it was discovered on Wednesday. It is believed to have been used by children playing in the area for years . The sewer system being searched was installed as part of failed plans . to build a hotel on the site before Madeleine disappeared in 2007, but after a planning battle it remained wasteland. The search of the area for clues to what happened to the three-year-old from Leicestershire is expected to go into a second week after British police were granted an extra seven days by the Portuguese authorities to keep searching. Sources said detectives had not realised just how hard and dry the land would be where they have been digging for clues. The extension may also have been granted after surprise finds at the first site, where a large concealed shaft was discovered by sniffer dogs. The hole has now been cleared after forensic teams removed ‘non organic’ materials from inside. Local reports suggested clothing had been found in what was a discarded play den for children. Officers also believed they had come . across a burial site late on Wednesday but this has since reportedly . been ruled out as an area of interest.

Mr . and Mrs McCann, who have not travelled to Praia da Luz, were previously . said to have been bracing themselves for 'significant news'. Today a group of officers lifted a manhole cover and lowered what appeared to be a camera attached to a long pole down it. One of them wrote notes as they looked inside, around 20ft (6metres) from where the radar equipment was used yesterday. They then moved over to a section of grass nearby and lifted another cover, with an officer lying on his front on the ground to reach inside. Meanwhile sniffer dogs used to hunt for murdered schoolgirl April Jones were again on the site hunting for evidence. The seven-year-old English springer spaniels – Tito and Muzzy – can cover a far larger area than humans in much less time. Yesterday they uncovered  concealed shaft covered with corrugated iron, yards from the spot where Madeleine McCann vanished. Scotland Yard moved in to seal off the area with large white tents.

By . Mark Duell . PUBLISHED: . 20:55 EST, 15 July 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 05:47 EST, 16 July 2013 . An astronomer studying old images of Neptune found a 14th moon orbiting the planet - by accident. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) revealed the find yesterday and said the moon, estimated to be about 12 miles in diameter, is located approximately 65,400 miles from Neptune. Astronomer Mark Showalter, from the SETI Institute in Mountain View, California, was searching Hubble Space Telescope images for moons inside faint ring fragments circling Neptune. Accidental find: This composite Hubble Space Telescope picture shows the location of a newly discovered moon, S/2004 N 1, orbiting Neptune. It's 100million times fainter than the faintest star visible with the naked eye . Neptune's . largest moon, Triton, was discovered in 1846, just days after the . planet itself was found. Nereid, Neptune's third largest moon, was found . in 1949. Images taken by . NASA's Voyager 2 spacecraft unveiled the second largest moon, Proteus, . and five smaller moons, Naiad, Thalassa, Despina, Galatea and Larissa. Ground-based telescopes found Halimede, Laomedeia, Sao and Nestor in 2002. Sister moon Psamathe turned up a year later. The expert said: ‘We had been processing the data for quite some time and it was on a whim that I said, 'OK, let's just look out further'.’ ‘I changed my program so that instead of stopping just outside the ring system it processed the data all the way out. 'I walked away from my computer and waited an hour while it did all the processing.’ ‘When I came back, I looked at the image. There was this extra dot that wasn't supposed to be there.’ Follow-up analysis of other archived Hubble images of Neptune verified the object was a moon. The tiny moon has previously escaped detection by NASA's . Voyager 2 spacecraft, which flew past Neptune in 1989 and surveyed the . planet's system of moons and rings. In space: This diagram released by NASA shows the orbits of several moons located close to the planet Neptune. Neptune's largest moon, Triton, was discovered in 1846, just days after the planet itself was found . Mr Showalter said: 'The moons and arcs orbit very quickly, . so we had to devise a way to follow their motion in order to bring out . the details of the system.' 'It's the same reason a sports photographer tracks a running athlete — the athlete stays in focus, but the background blurs.' Neptune's moons and arcs 'smear out' when captured by the Hubble Telescope because of their rapid orbital motion. The astronomer re-processed the images to compensate for this smear and discovered the new moon as an extra white dot that has escaped attention before. Interestingly, the moon is too faint to be seen in individual images but was noticeable when experts looked at sets of ten images together. The astronomer has tracked the moon's movement in more than 150 pictures taken by Hubble from 2004 to 2009. He then plotted a circular orbit for the moon, which completes one revolution around Neptune every 23 hours. Mr Showalter made the discovery after he decided to focus his attention beyond Neptune's faint ring that contains its known moons (pictured). 'I looked at the image. There was this extra dot that wasn't supposed to be there,' he said . Mr Showalter and colleagues are mulling . over a name to propose to the International Astronomical Union, which . has final say in the matter. ‘We haven't really gotten far with that,’ he said. ‘What I can say is that the name will be out of Roman and Greek mythology and it will have to do with characters who are related to Neptune, the god of the oceans.’ The newly found moon, designated S/2004 N 1, is located between Larissa and Proteus. It orbits Neptune in 23 hours. The moon is so small and dim that it is 100million times fainter than the faintest star that can be seen with the naked eye. The considerably bigger gas giant Jupiter has four times as many moons, with 67. The astronomer is pondering names for the new moon but thinks that it may reference Roman or Greek mythology and be linked to characters related to the god of the ocean, Neptune. An image of the planet Neptune is pictured .
NASA says moon has 12-mile diameter and is 65,400 . miles from Neptune . Astronomer looked for moons inside faint ring fragments circling planet . But Mark Showalter then analysed broader part of the sky 'on a whim' He tracked movement of 'S/2004 N 1' in 150 pictures from 2004 to 2009 .

Wilson, 29, who has accused the documentary's producers of duping her into taking part, was arrested last summer for allegedly assaulting a police officer in the execution of his duty. On trial: Lawyers for Charlene Wilson have asked . Channel 4 to release the cut material to be played as part of her . defence at a forthcoming hearing in Birmingham where she is charged with . assaulting a duty police officer . Appearing at Birmingham Magistrates’ Court, Wilson was supported by other residents from James Turner Street in Winson Green including Samora 'Black Dee' Roberts and Deirdre 'White Dee' Kelly. At one point the defendant during the brief hearing she turned to her friends and smiled as she sat in the dock. One of the mother-of-three’s supporters in the public gallery was overheard to say 'ridiculous' as the trial was adjourned until April. The hearing was put back because of the need for the film footage and a lack of time after an earlier trial had run for several hours, and because a police witness would not be available to appear while he was away on a course. Support: Appearing at Birmingham Magistrates’ Court, Wilson was supported by other residents from James Turner Street in Winson Green including Samora 'Black Dee' Roberts, left, and Deirdre 'White Dee' Kelly, right . Wykeham Garsia, for the defence, told the court the material would need to be obtained from Channel 4 and played at the trial. He said: 'We will need to play the film. I don’t think they would turn it around that quickly. 'In theory they should be able to reasonably speedily. 'They will obviously have it in their archives. 'I don’t know how long they keep films, I would imagine at least for a year or two.' The hearing at Birmingham Magistrates' Court on Friday was adjourned by the court clerk without the magistrates - who were deliberating a verdict in an earlier case - being present. Wilson was granted bail . Benefits Street star Fungi, who has gone into hiding since the explosive Channel 4 show first aired, fears he is dying. The father-of-three - real name James Clarke - is a self-confessed alcoholic and recovering drug addict. He admitted turning to substance abuse after suffering years of abuse when he was a child. The 44-year-old lived on James Turner Street in Winson Green, Birmingham, for four-and-a-half years before suffering a meltdown sparked by the stress of appearing on the programme. Fears for his health grew when producers admitted he had moved away from the area 'for personal reasons.' But in a heart-breaking interview, he revealed he believes he does not have long to live. 'I haven’t got long left, I’m dying. I am waiting for my benefits to go up because of my health,' he said. In a teaser for next week’s episode which aired on Monday night, . producers showed Fungi visiting the doctors before saying he might have . cancer. Channel 4 was plunged into controversy last week after it emerged Fungi had fled his home on Benefits Street suffering a 'meltdown'. Friends claimed that producers had bribed Fungi with beer to appear on the show - an allegation Channel 4 has strenuously denied. Chris Coughlan, for the prosecution, . told the court a lengthy adjournment was necessary because a police . witness had to attend a course. He . said: 'One of my officers won’t be available because he has an . extremely important course which lasts 11 weeks and has been booked for . months and months.' Mr Coughlan added: 'It’s part of his career. I’m in the court’s hands.' The hearing on Friday was adjourned by the court clerk without the magistrates - who were deliberating a verdict in an earlier case - being present. Wilson was granted unconditional bail ahead of the trial. She has previously claimed she was duped into appearing on the show. 'They told me it was about living as a community and how we all got along. But the actual programme doesn’t show any of that,' she said. 'If they had said it was about benefits and making the street look bad I would not have taken part. 'They tricked us.' A Channel 4 spokesman said: 'We have not received a request for footage in relation to this incident but if we do then appropriate procedure will be followed.' In a separate case Wilson has been charged with conspiracy to supply a Class A drug, crack cocaine, conspiracy to supply a Class B drug, cannabis, and possession of diamorphine. She was arrested last June along with Black Dee, 32, who faces charges of conspiracy to supply a Class A drug, conspiracy to supply a Class B drug, possession of a Class A drug and possession of ammunition for a firearm without a certificate. They were among seven people held in police raids - all but one of whom live in the street. The defendants will appear before Birmingham magistrates on February 6.

By . Victoria Woollaston . Snapchat’s popularity has soared in recent months and a number of firms, including Facebook, have been looking to emulate this status - with limited success. But latest rival Taptalk could finally steal the app's crown after Ashton Kutcher tweeted about it to his 16 million Twitter followers on Sunday. Taptalk sends self-destructing pictures and videos by tapping the screen and each file is sent with user’s location. Snapchat rival Taptalk (pictured) was developed by Berlin-based Onno Faber. Pictures and videos are shared with friends using a tap of the screen, and each file is sent with the user's location. Captions can also be added, and the photos and videos self-destruct after they've been viewed . Although it sounds almost identical to Snapchat, its developers and fans claim its much simpler to use, and could replace text messaging. Taptalk has a photo and video viewer at the top of the screen, and a grid of friends below. Tapping a friend’s face takes a photo with either the front, or rear-facing camera. The image is then sent to the selected friend automatically. Tapping and holding the friend’s face sends the selected contact a video. Captions can be added before tapping the screen, and all files are sent with the user’s location included. Video and photos can be viewed only once before they are deleted. Messages can only be sent to individuals, and not groups - like on Snapchat. Due to it's single-screen design, Taptalk is also said to be much faster and easier to use than its rival. This is because it’s stripped out the timers, profiles and navigation buttons seen on Snapchat. Instead, Taptalk has a photo and video viewer at the top of the screen, and a grid of friends below.

By . Sara Nathan . The battle between Bethenny Frankel and Jason Hoppy for custody of their young daughter Bryn concluded today - with the pair agreeing to both share parental duties. The Skinnygirl millionairess, 43, accused her 42-year-old estranged husband of hacking into her personal email and says he reportedly 'sought to obsessively control her every move through their four-year-old daughter', as the pair fought over custody in court last week. But today, Bernard Clair, Hoppy’s attorney, confirmed that the custody part of the divorce case has been settled, stating: 'My client is delighted that this custody dispute has been resolved; that his co-parenting status has been acknowledged; that the parties’ child will have the benefit of being raised by both parents; and most importantly, that his daughter will no longer be at the mercy of a high profile courtroom battle. Scroll down for video . 'She's thrilled this has settled': Bethenny Frankel and ex Jason Hoppy have finally settled their ongoing custody dispute over four-year-old daughter Bryn - pictured here with her mom in Soho, New York on Wednesday - agreeing to share parenting duties . 'Jason . wishes Bethenny only the best of luck, and he looks forward to sharing . with her all of the joyous occasions, milestones, and blessings that . will be coming up in his daughter’s future.' Mr. Clair also said that . the specific terms of the settlement are confidential. It comes amid reports on Radar Online that Frankel testified she once threw water over a sleeping Hoppy, and also told the court: 'He would sit with Bryn and look over and say ... "You be the princess, I’ll be the prince, Mommy will be the witch."' Changing it up: On the same day, Bethenny was seen stepping out with a different outfit on later in the day . It got nasty: In the court case, Frankel recalled how Hoppy made their daughter 'start crying' on May 8 after a school party . Smartened up: For her second outfit of the day, Bethenny wore a sleek pair of white trousers and black vest top . In addition Frankel recalled how Hoppy made their daughter 'start crying' on May 8 after a school party. Frankel claims he said to Bryn: 'You don’t want to go with Mommy, right? You want to be with me.' Although . their divorce is still ongoing, the custody agreement was reached just . days after it threatened to spill over into a bitter and hate-fuelled . row with damaging allegations made in a New York courtroom. Frankel hired lawyer Allan Mayefsky, who repped Katie Holmes in her split from Tom Cruise. In opening . comments last week, Mayefsky claimed the Bravo star's husband went 'to . war' once their union crumbled in 2012, saying: 'He threatened to . destroy her. 'He had her followed and spied on along with their daughter. He hacked into her most private personal email.' Bitter battle: Bethenny had been in court battling with her estranged husband Jason Hoppy over custody (pictured today in New York) Finally over: Bethenny can now resume her parenting duties without having to battle in court (pictured in New York on Wednesday) ​'​He has . consciously placed his desire for revenge … over the best interests of . this family and particularly the child,' Mayefsky concluded.​ ​'He has . sought to obsessively control their every move through their daughte​r.' Mayefsky said his client is a 'very, very involved mother' whose success will benefit the child. While Bethenny had been insisting on primary custody and sole decision-making authority for Bryn, Jason ​was asking for shared custody. Bitter split: Bethenny and Jason are seen at Manhattan's Family Court on May 28 accompanied by her lawyers . She means business: Bethenny refused to settle out of court (pictured at court on May 28) While under . attack, Jason showed no emotion. His attorney Clair, who has . also repped Simon Cowell's girlfriend and mother of his baby son, Lauren Silverman, also accused . the reality TV star and businesswoman of wanting to get even. One . of the examples mentioned was how Bethenny allegedly stripped their . shared condo on Hudson Street when she vacated it earlier this year. 'The clothes were gone, the favorite stuffed animals gone, the favorite dollhouse gone,' Clair said. He argued . the change made Bryn upset. When her father went to cook her a meal to . calm her nerves, he said the kitchen was almost empty. Real . love: Bethenny and Jason enjoyed a break in St. Barts after tying the . knot in March, 2010, two months before Bryn's birth. The happy time was . captured in Bravo reality show, Bethenny Getting Married . 'He . found that every single utensil had been taken but replaced with . plastic knives, forks and spoons like you would pick up from a takeout . place. One pot was left,' Clair said. Clair . also said Frankel used 'the child as a prop … in the pursuit of her own . career and her own brand.' He said she 'embarked on a secret endeavor . to have a children’s book published' this coming September about Bryn’s . life. 'Ms. Frankel even arranged for the illustrator to come to her home to follow . this child around so that every likeness and every sense of the child . could be presented,' Clair said. 'And that’s not all: This children’s . book has the Skinnygirl logo, Skinnygirl being the brand of Ms. Frankel, . throughout its pages.' According to RadarOnline, Bethenny was in 'tears' while on the stand, claiming her estranged husband said she was 'disgusting.' Once a close family: Bethenny and Jason with daughter Bryn and their dog in April 2012 . 'If you don’t want to be with me and you’re ending this marriage, I want nothing to do with you ever again. I’m going to destroy you,' she revealed Hoppy had told her. She added that Jason said, 'You’re already losing fans. I’m going to ruin you' and also saying, 'You’re dead to me. I want nothing to do with you. You think I want to be with you on the holidays? You’re a piece of s***. You’re garbage. You have no idea what I’ve got on you.' Bethenny filed for divorce from Jason 16 months ago. Jason had . reportedly been hoping to come to an out-of-court deal with his . estranged wife, who sold her Skinnygirl alcohol brand to Beam Global for . an estimated $39m with a similar amount promised if the brand hit . certain sales targets. But the source said Bethanny is refusing to . settle. 'Bethenny . sat outside the courtroom and made notes on what looked like a script . or a book draft,' an eyewitness told RadarOnline of the former talk show . host's appearance on Thursday morning. No, she's mine: Jason, 42, has been equally adamant about his custody right to Bryn as the couple's bitter divorce wrangle comes to a head after 16 months . 'There were no tears or emotions. Both Bethenny and Jason looked very somber.' In June 2010, the celebrity starred in the Bravo reality TV show Bethenny Getting Married, which documented her engagement to Jason, their marriage on March 28, 2010, and the birth of their daughter two months later. The brunette, whose show Bethenny was cancelled by Fox after just one season, is finding solace in the arms of her new beau, Michael Cerrusi. She has been dating the beefy 34-year-old son of a prominent New York attorney since the beginning of the year. New beau: The brunette has been dating 34-year-old Michael Cerrusi since the beginning of the year. The couple cuddled at the New Year's celebrations at Mondrian in New York .
Bernard Clair, Jason Hoppy's attorney says: 'My client is delighted that this custody . dispute has been resolved...that the parties' child will have the benefit of being . raised by both parents' Mr Clair adds: 'Jason . wishes Bethenny only the best of luck' The custody battle for Bethenny and Jason's daughter Bryn saw a stream of damaging accusations made in a New York court last week . It was reported Jason hacked into Bethenny's email - and sought to control her every move through their daughter . Jason wanted Bethenny to be 'witch' in fairytale games with Bryn .

A mental health trust where patients have been punished with a dangerous form of restraint faces being put into special measures. Inspectors found serious problems at the body that oversees mental health services in Norfolk and Suffolk. These included patients being held in the face-down prone position and being put in seclusion as a punishment. The prone position involves two or more staff holding a patient face-down on the floor and pinning down their arms, legs and torso. It can result in compression of the chest and airways and can be fatal. The Norvic Clinic - which is run by Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust - was singled out for its use of the 'prone' position in a report which found the trust 'inadequate' overall . Last April, Lib Dem care minister Norman Lamb announced controls banning its deliberate use on patients. The Norfolk and Suffolk Trust’s secure unit had been told to review its procedures after 38-year-old patient David Bennett died while being held in the prone position for almost 25 minutes in October 1998. A 2003 inquiry into the incident led by Sir John Blofeld found prone position restraints were ‘always dangerous’ and should never be used for more than three minutes. But a damning report into the trust released yesterday by the Care Quality Commission revealed prone restraints were not only still being carried out at the trust’s secure unit, they were being used as punishments. The report said: ‘Some patients told us that restraint and seclusion were used too frequently at the Norvic Clinic. ‘We were concerned about the high levels of face down (prone) restraint and that there was a punitive attitude towards patients. We observed that some episodes of restraint and seclusion may have been punitive. ‘While on the unit we saw that people who became violent were restrained and removed to the seclusion ward. Five people told us that they had been restrained and secluded following refusal to follow staff instructions. One person told us that if you do not sit correctly on the chairs you could end up being restrained and secluded.’ The Norfolk and Suffolk Trust’s secure unit was told to review its procedures after 38-year-old patient David Bennett died while being held in the prone position for almost 25 minutes in October 1998 . In its report, the CQC said it was unacceptable that patients who were secluded did not always have access to toilets and had to use a urine bottle or bedpan. Inspectors expressed concern that ‘high numbers’ of prone restraints being used at the trust’s acute and psychiatric intensive care wards, as well as its two centres for adults with learning difficulties. Nearly a third of all incidents where patients were restrained involved prone positions. The report stated: ‘We found there was not a safe, effective or responsive service at this trust and the board needs to take urgent action to address areas of inadequacy.’ It revealed there was a widespread problem with staffing shortages and a lack of training. The CQC suggested the trust’s problems were the fault of senior management, saying there was ‘a lack of leadership, support and awareness’ in some areas. But it praised frontline staff for being ‘kind and caring’ and rated the trust as ‘good’ in the care category. It was rated ‘inadequate’ overall however and the CQC has recommended to health services regulator Monitor that it go into special measures. In a statement, the trust said it accepted the findings and ‘vowed to put patients and staff first’ under a management team which had seen ‘extensive changes’. Deputy director of nursing Michele Allott said the trust was implementing Department of Health guidelines on restraint. She added: ‘The Norvic Clinic is a secure unit that looks after mentally disordered violent offenders deemed to pose a risk of serious harm to the public. ‘The guidelines are clear that there must be no planned restraint of a person in a prone position and we are reviewing and improving all of our training to help staff make better use of positive behavioural support, de-escalation and prevention strategies. ‘Restraint of a patient is only used as an absolute last resort where all other interventions have been exhausted.’

'I would give the greatest sunset in the world for one sight of New York's skyline,' Ayn Rand gushed in The Fountainhead. With these breathtaking photographs, she won't be the only one. Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer Vincent Laforet hung out a helicopter at 7,500 feet above the city at night. And the results are mesmerizing. Scroll down for video . Bright lights, big city: Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer Vincent Laforet hung out a helicopter at 7,500 feet to capture New York City . Mesmerizing: His shots, designed to make the streets mirror brain synapses, dwarf Manhattan's towering monuments in Times Square .

By . Hugo Gye and John Stevens . PUBLISHED: . 02:45 EST, 3 May 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 02:45 EST, 3 May 2013 . Free: Paedophile Gary Karn 48, sexually assaulted two girls aged seven and eight on an allotment but has been spared jail . A paedophile who avoided jail because was worried his family would be affected if he went to prison is having his sentence reviewed. Gary Karn escaped with just a suspended sentence after being convicted of sexually abusing two little girls as they picked fruit at his allotment. But following public outrage at the case, the Attorney General is now considering whether to launch an appeal against the sentence. The 48-year-old father of three inappropriately touched his victims, aged seven and eight, after inviting them into his greenhouse to help themselves  to raspberries. He was found guilty of three counts of sexual assault against a child at Norwich Crown Court earlier this week. Judge Mark Lucraft imposed an 18-month suspended sentence, saying a jail term would unfairly affect his family as he would probably lose his job in a food processing factory. ‘I have to consider the impact on them - people who are not in any way at fault yet might suffer serious hardship from your actions,’ he said. But the father of one of his victims said: ‘He talks about the effect on the offender’s family, but what about the effects on my family?' It was revealed today that a member of public has asked the Attorney General's Office to review whether the sentence might have been 'unduly lenient'. The office is considering the case, and must decide whether to refer the sentencing to the Court of Appeal by May 22. Trial: After considering the mitigation in the case, Judge Mark Lucraft (left) agreed Gary Karn (right) should not go to prison . The court heard Karn invited the . girls on to his allotment. He told them that he needed to brush spiders . off them then put his hands up the top of one girl, and down the . trousers of the other. He . was also charged with six counts of possession of extreme pornography . and one count of possession of indecent photographs of a child. Mr Lucraft decided not to proceed with these offences but took them into consideration. Jude Durr, defending, had told the judge: ‘Imprisonment will almost certainly lead to him losing his job. 'If he loses his liberty and they lose . their house, that would have pretty devastating consequences on the . family circumstances.’ The decision outraged the victims’ families, who said the girls have been left traumatised from both the . incident and the ordeal of having to give evidence in court. Assaults: Karn had attacked the two girls at these Norwich allotments, claiming the victims had spiders on them . The father of the eight-year-old added: ‘I find it all very disgusting. The judge has been too lenient.’ He told how the two girls were . playing on his allotment last September when Karn invited them to pick . vegetables and fruit on his plot. The next morning the mother of one . the girls overheard the pair saying they ‘didn’t want to talk to the man . down the allotment’ again. The girls then told what had happened . after breaking down in tears when preparing a salad using vegetables . from Karn’s allotment. The father continued: ‘I feel totally let down. The judge lives in cloud cuckoo land. ‘It has caused arguments between me and my wife – it happened on my watch. It has caused a lot of anguish and grief.’ Harrowing: The two child victims gave evidence at Norwich Crown Court (pictured) during a three-day trial . He added: ‘I told my daughter that . she wouldn’t have to see that man ever again and it is all over and done . with and now he is going to be walking around – how do you explain that . to an eight-year-old? It will just confuse her. ‘We have put her through this –and ourselves – and for what? If I had known the outcome I would not have bothered.’ Talking about how it has affected his . daughter, the father said: ‘There are noticeable little differences. She won’t stay upstairs in bed any more if her mum gets up and she . carries her teddy everywhere as a comfort toy. ‘What scares me is that I am one of . those parents who encourages my children to talk to people and . acknowledge them when they are spoken to. The allotment is the last . place I would have expected this to happen.’ Mr Lucraft suspended Karn’s sentence for two years and banned him from working with children for five years. He was also ordered to carry out 200 hours of unpaid work and was given a five-year sexual offences prevention order.

It was the first time the baby had . visual interaction with other gorillas or even left the veterinary . hospital since undergoing major surgery . for a collapsed lung. Scroll down for video . Sweet moment: A San Diego Zoo Safari Park keeper introduced the baby gorilla, wrapped in a fluffy white blanket, to her mother Imani who was behind a protective barrier . Moving: San Diego Zoo Safari Park's baby gorilla, born via emergency C-section on March 12, was introduced to her mother, Imani, on Friday . Integration: Friday's introduction was the first step to reintegrate Imani's little one with the Safari Park gorilla troop . The little gorilla weighed just 4lbs 6oz when she was born with breathing problems on March 12. Her mother had been in labor for 12 hours  - a normal stretch for human moms-to-be, but rare for gorillas. 'With gorillas, that’s very unusual,' zoo spokeswoman Christina Simmons told ABCNews.com. 'Four hours is long for them.' As her mother recovered from the prolonged labor, the infant was moved to a neonatal intensive care unit, where oxygen and fluids kept her strong through treatment for a collapsed lung and pneumonia. Now, after being cared for and monitored in a special bedroom-like area, keepers have started the process of integrating the little gorilla with her troop. The baby's mom, Imani . Scarring: The scar is still visible on the belly of Imani, an 18-year-old gorilla (pictured), who gave birth to a baby girl via a rare C-section two weeks ago at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park . Resting: Imani (left) is recovering at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park after giving birth to a baby girl via C-section on March 12 . Friday's special meeting was the first time the baby - who is now breathing on her own and slurping down milk formula - had seen other gorillas. Keepers want the gorilla troop to familiarize . themselves with the zoo's new addition through a protective barrier. 'Veterinary . staff felt confident in the baby's health to release her from the . hospital,' senior keeper Matt Gelvin told Peoplepets.com. 'Everyone is very excited to . see the baby – very curious.' The baby is the 17th gorilla born at the Safari Park, but Imani's first. On the mend: The baby gorilla is being monitored in a special bedroom-like area . In good hands: Veterinarians said the C-section, although rare, was the right decision for the baby's health . Looked after: The operation was performed by the San Diego Zoo Global team, a veterinary surgeon and a neonatal specialist from UC San Diego Medical Center . Emergency surgery: When the newborn struggled to breathe, an X-ray revealed she had a collapsed lung .

Aaron Hernandez has used ‘coded messages’ to discuss the Odin Lloyd murder from prison, authorities claim. A Thursday court filing from the Bristol County (MA) District Attorney accuses the former New England Patriots tight end of talking about the murder with fiancée Shayanna Jenkins and cousin Tanya Cummings Singleton. The recorded conversations mostly took place during visits the two women made to the county jail since Mr Hernandez was incarcerated in June, the papers first reported by the Boston Globe said. He talked in code: Former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez (pictured in October) talked in 'coded messages' with Shayanna Jenkins and Tanya Cummings Singleton about the Odin Lloyd murder case, authorities say . The DA made the filing to request copies of the conversations from the county sheriff as further evidence in their case against Mr Hernandez. ‘We did file a motion, and what’s in the documents is pretty self-explanatory,’ DA spokesperson Gregg Miliote told MailOnline. He declined to provide further details while citing a gag order issued by the court. ‘During those conversations, the defendant has discussed the following matters directly relevant to the circumstances surrounding the murder of Odin Lloyd,’ said the affidavit. The former all-pro is accused of discussing what he believes is his criminal liability, related prior offenses, denials of ownership of a vehicle impounded by police, his control of persons outside the jail and the whereabouts of others implicated in the slaying, said the filing. Ms Singleton and Ms Jenkins have been charged as co-conspirators. Accused co-conspirators: Cousin Tanya Cummings Singleton (left) and fiancee Shayanna Jenkins (right) face charges for their involvement in the murder case, and are accused of receiving the coded messages . ‘Both of these co-defendants have been charged as accessories in the underlying offense of murder on the theory that they provided assistance to the defendant after the commission of that offense,’ the affidavit said. These conversations took place despite all three of the accused being advised the conversations were being recorded, authorities said. Most happened during visits, but some were outbound calls placed from prison. The recordings can be used against all three during court proceedings. Only calls between Mr Hernandez and his attorneys are off-limits during trial. Messages left by MailOnline seeking comment from Mr Hernandez’s legal team were not immediately returned. An attempt to reach the Bristol County Sheriff’s Office was not successful. The . motion was filed the same day Ms Singleton posted bail after spending . months behind bars for aiding accomplice Ernest Wallace’s flight from . Massachusetts. Back in court soon: The next pretrial hearing in the case is scheduled for Wednesday . Also filed Friday was a motion by Mr Hernandez’s legal team seeking clarification as to whether authorities believe he fired the shots that killed Mr Lloyd or if he acted in concert with co-defendants Mr Wallace and Carlos Ortiz. ‘If Hernandez is alleged to be a joint venturer as to the murder count, the bill of particulars should identify the alleged principal or principals,’ the filing said, according to the Fall River Herald News. Mr Hernandez is due again in court on Wednesday for another pretrial hearing.

(CNN) -- As location-based apps go, Foursquare or Gowalla will work just fine if you're looking for the spot where all your buddies are having a beer. But what if they discovered an awesome, out-of-the-way spot six months ago? Or, better yet, what if you didn't even know you were looking for a watering hole until your phone told you there's one around the corner you shouldn't miss? As the novelty of the simple check-in fades, and the abilities of GPS-based location technology expand, some new mobile apps -- call them "discovery apps" -- are looking to parlay mobile "noise" into useful, place-based tips. "It feels like the paradigm shift in the late '90s when Google came along," said Babak Pahlavan, CEO of Cleversense, which released the app Alfred this month. "There's an information overload -- to find something useful for you is a very daunting task. It's time for a new shift; it's time to make sense of it and make it useful for you." Alfred has been called "Pandora for the real world." Users feed it information about their favorite places (mainly restaurants, bars and coffee shops). Then, theoretically, Alfred -- a mustachioed robot butler -- can suggest similar spots that are nearby, no matter where you are. The free app, currently on Apple's iOS system, with Android and Windows Phone versions in the works, was rolled out this month and took top honors in the "Startup Idol" contest at the Fortune Brainstorm Tech conference in Aspen, Colorado. The app, which was two years in the making, uses a Web-crawling algorithm to pull the information together and, according to Pahlavan, recognized the difference between positive and negative chatter about a place. "There's so much information on the Web, but it's all scattered," he said. "You almost need an assistant or chaperone to go out and find things to figure out what matters to you." If Cleversense's app relies on software, Trover, co-created by the founder of travel site Expedia, is fueled by other folks and their cell phones. Unveiled Thursday after three months in trial mode, Trover is a photography app. But its similarities to hot tools like Instagram or Hipstamatic end there. Instead, it's about documenting your discoveries, from a cool statue to an out-of-the-way restaurant to the best spot to view the surrounding scenery. Rich Barton, the Expedia founder and a Microsoft alum who also founded real-estate site Zillow, said he and Trover CEO Jason Karas are both avid travelers. "And we've been brainstorming for years to figure out a way that we could carry with us, as we went, all our friends' recommendations on what to do, where to go and what to see," he said. "Wouldn't it be great if we had a little voice whispering, 'Take a right there' ... or 'Hey, you're passing the best gelato place in Rome.' " Using GPS on a smartphone (currently just the iPhone, but with an Android version in the works), the app shows users photos that other people have taken in the area. Apps like Yelp! already let users search for restaurants or other destinations. But Trover's founders say their app does something else. "People that are using Trover now ... say Trover has become part of the rotation of apps that they use -- Trover combined with Yelp! and Foursquare and Instagram," Karas said. "With Trover, it's really a different kind of experience. It's really built more around exploration than targeted search. As you travel around a neighborhood, you can have these serendipitous kinds of experiences." Used Friday at CNN's Atlanta offices, the app rendered images of folks standing beside the giant CNN logo, spots in Centennial Olympic Park, concert footage from nearby venue The Tabernacle and even a buffalo head on the wall of a Ted's Montana Grill restaurant. With about 70,000 users who've found the app despite it being in stealth mode, the founders have already seen it used in an unexpected way: by street artists and their fans. "That's two groups that have never really been able to get together, and they're getting together on Trover," Barton said. Users can, of course, create their own "troves" by taking and uploading pictures of their own. Trover and Alfred aren't the only new apps geared, at least in part, to place-based discovery. Broadcastr lets people upload audio files to an interactive map. Crowdbeacon lets users send questions to nearby users and tap into comments from other mobile apps about surrounding locations. "With these new (GPS) sensors, it's all new data," Pahlavan said. "It's about making sense out of it for you, and these new technologies that are forming are about taking all these data points and aggregating it to make it more useful for you."
As location technology grows, mobile apps are trending toward "discovery" Trover lets users see photos of interesting things that others have shared nearby . Alfred, from Cleversense, uses a Web crawler to compare your favorites to spots near you .

By . Ben Spencer . One in three councils in England and Wales charge residents to collect garden waste . More than three million families are paying a ‘garden tax’ to have their lawn clippings taken away by the council, Daily Mail research reveals. One in three councils in England and Wales charge residents to collect garden waste. The levy, which can cost up to £120 a year, is not imposed by authorities in Scotland or Northern Ireland, which have retained free collections. It is feared that many householders simply send their hedge trimmings and other garden waste to landfill – or dump it in the street – to avoid the charge. Local authorities blame Whitehall budget cuts for the garden waste fees, which come on top of hefty council tax bills. But Brandon Lewis, the Tory minister for local government, last night accused councils of using residents as ‘cash cows’. Daily Mail analysis of official data collected by Wrap, the Government’s waste quango, reveals that 3.12million homes had to pay for garden waste to be collected by their councils in 2012/13. The English and Welsh councils which still offer a free service – two thirds of the total – collected green waste from 13million households with gardens, according to the latest figures. Mr Lewis said: ‘We believe that councils must not use residents as cash cows. People pay a £120-a-month council tax bill for services, including bins – they deserve a decent service in return.’ Several more councils have  abandoned free collections in recent months. Birmingham City Council, Britain’s largest local authority, introduced a £35 charge for garden waste collection in February. Just 37,000 of the city’s 400,000 households have signed up for the service, and residents report that many are dumping waste in the street instead. Liberal Democrat John Hemming, the MP for Birmingham Yardley, is considering legal action against the authority. He accused the Labour-run council of ‘failing in its duty’ to the city. ‘It’s a complete mess,’ he said. ‘They should reverse the decision on the green waste tax.’ Local authorities blame Whitehall budget cuts for the garden waste fees, which come on top of hefty council tax bills. File picture . The council has had to resort to warning of a £2,500 fine for anyone who dumps garden waste on the street. Labour councillor James McKay, who is in charge of waste services at the council, told a local newspaper: ‘It was always going to be difficult to take away a service which had been free. ‘We can’t continue to provide the same level of service when our controllable budget has been cut by two-thirds.’ Liberal Democrat-run South Gloucestershire Council, which introduced a £36 yearly charge in March, estimates the scheme will generate £1.2million a year. However Ian Adams, a Conservative on the council, predicts it will damage the environment as more residents simply put garden waste in their bin for ordinary rubbish rather than it being recycled. Charges also vary wildly across the country. Hart Council in Hampshire charges up to £120 a year for a fortnightly service, while Harlow Council in Essex charges £85. A spokesman for the Local Government Association said councils had increased their recycling from 13 per cent in 2001 to 43 per cent today, adding: ‘It is for individual councils to decide if the costs of additional green waste collection should be met by all council taxpayers or those that use the additional service.’

Sir Elton has known Lev, now six, since he tried to adopt him in 2009 (pictured). It is thought the singer helped rescue the Ukrainian boy and his family . Elton John is believed to have helped the rescue of a  six-year-old boy from the conflict in Ukraine. Lev Ageyev, six, his brother Artyom, seven, and their grandmother Yulia Ageyeva were rushed out of the  port city of Mariupol in a  460-mile dash arranged by  a foundation run by the singer’s close friend,  socialite Olena Franchuk. Sir Elton has known Lev since attempting to adopt  him in 2009. At the time he was unable to defy laws in Ukraine barring gay couples from adoption. Yesterday’s rescue mission took place as protesters in the city formed a human chain of more than 1,000 people demanding that  pro-Russian forces keep out. Last night, the singer’s representative declined to comment, but it is believed Sir Elton and his partner David Furnish were involved. Speaking from near Kiev, Mrs Ageyeva said: ‘I thank God for whoever helped us.’ The rescue came as EU leaders were scrambling last night to . bolster sanctions which have so far failed abysmally to halt the Russian . president’s determination – in Western eyes – to bully Ukraine into . remaining in his orbit. A key . concern is that he intends to use his military might to impose a new . ‘statelet’ within Ukraine called Novorossiya –  or New Russia. What . remains of Ukraine could be left with  no coastline if the plan goes . through. A diplomat said: ‘Putin is obsessed with Novorossiya, territory won for the Romanovs by Catherine the Great. He wants it back. 'But the . so-called rebels in this region of eastern Ukraine, who he praised for . keeping Kiev’s army at bay,  are his own soldiers, using his latest . military equipment. Let’s not fool ourselves about the acute dangers.’ Putin’s use of the Tsarist name of Novorossiya is sending shudders through Europe. While . it includes the Donetsk and Lugansk regions – at the epicentre of the . current unrest – it also includes such major cities as Kharkiv, Kherson . and Odessa. The six-year-old was rescued from Mariupol in the Donetsk region of Ukraine, where the West is concerned Putin will use his military to impose a New Russia 'statelet' in Ukraine.

By . Steve Hopkins for MailOnline . Britain is set to bask in several days of warm weather as temperatures in September continue to sizzle well above the national average. While temperatures are expected to hover between 24-25C (75-77F) today, they may hit 27C (80F) tomorrow in the south east, but will at least reach 26C (78F). According to Met Office statistics, that's 7C (44F) higher than the September average of 17.9C (64.2F). Scroll down for video . With his headphones in, sunglasses on, and leaning back in a deck chair at Bournemouth next to a thermos, this man looks like he's enjoying the height of summer . Ladies lounge on deckchairs at Sidmouth, Devon today, taking in the last of the summer rays . While the skies were relatively cloudy today, the temperatures were still in their mid-20s, which saw a lucky few sitting in the sun at Sidmouth, Devon . While temperatures are expected to reach 26C (78F) tomorrow and remain steady throughout the weekend, forecasters said it would remain cloudy and there would be some brief, but heavy, downpours . Met Office spokesman Dan Williams said: '26C is fairly well above average for this time of year.' Mr Williams said temperatures could reach 26C on Friday and would remain around 24-25C throughout the weekend, but over the next two days there would be 'quite a lot of clouds around... it is not wall to wall sunshine'. He said those daring to sunbathe should also expect brief, but heavy, downpours on Thursday and Friday, especially in the south west. It has been predicted that the sunny weather will boost the turnout for tomorrow's Scottish independence referendum. Mr Williams said the sunny spell was caused by a low pressure system off the north-western tip of Spain which was pulling air across the continent. The showers were due to the moisture being absorbed along the way. A woman finds a sunny spot to recline and use her computer on Brighton Beach . A man takes a post-lunch nap on the grass in London as September temperatures continue to sizzle . A woman tops-up her tan on Brighton Beach yesterday, wearing nothing but her bikini bottoms . Mr Williams said it was too early to predict what the weather would do for the remainder of the month, but said temperatures should remain steady into next week, although they would vary across the country. Mr Williams said: 'We will probably see a north-south split, with unsettled weather in the north, while the south will cling to more dry spells.' Sunny September is also on record to become one of the driest ever recorded. Figures up to Monday show there had been 6.7mm of rain across the UK - just seven per cent of the September average of 96mm. The Met Office said they would normally expect about half of the average monthly rainfall to have fallen by this point in the month. A man reclines against a wall and catches some rays of sunshine on Bournemouth's Boscombe beach . It said the figures make it the driest first half of September for the UK since 1960. It’s also the driest start to September for Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, but not for England – 1997 and 2003 were drier - the Met Office said. By individual country, Wales was the driest with less than 1mm of rain up until Monday, followed by Northern Ireland which had 1.2mm. England received 4.1mm and Scotland 13.5mm. The average temperature for the UK this month, until the 15th, has been 13.9C (57F), which is 1.3C (34F) above the full-month average. Day-time maximums have averaged 18.4C (65F) which is 1.9C (35F) higher than normal. Night-time minimums have been closer to average at 9.6C (49F), which is 0.7C (33F) above average. Sunshine has also been slightly above normal with 70.8 hours for the UK - about 57 per cent of the full-month average. The figures have come about after a prolonged spell of settled and fine weather, dominated by high pressure sitting over the UK, forecasters said.
Temperatures across the UK are hovering at 6C over the national average . They are expected to hit 27C tomorrow - but there will be some showers . September is set to be the driest on record, according to forecasters .

CLICK HERE to see Harry Redknapp's Premier League team from the modern era. For 50 years, Harry Redknapp has been one of football’s most colourful and outspoken characters. Now he’s written a book every fan will want to read. In Redknapp’s new book 'A Man Walks On To a Pitch' - serialised exclusively by Sportsmail this week - the QPR manager picks his two all-time greatest Premier League teams from the early years to the present day. From Alan Shearer to Ryan Giggs, the 67-year-old reveals his one to 11 titans of the early Premier League era. VIDEO Scroll down to watch Roy Keane and Patrick Vieira disagreeing over old battles . My best team for this period includes possibly the most controversial selection of my whole book: Matt Le Tissier instead of David Beckham. I know some people will think I’ve gone mad. But David was a fantastic player in a fantastic team, whereas Matt was performing heroics that built a football club. Without him, Southampton couldn’t have stayed in the top division for so long, and without that they would not have been able to build their new stadium and its fabulous academy that saw players like Gareth Bale and Theo Walcott come through the ranks. Sportsmail can exclusively reveal Harry Redknapp's greatest Premier League XI from the early era . Le Tissier’s 10 greatest goals would stand alongside those by Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo -even Diego Maradona or Pele. He was a one-man band there for a lot of the time, like Sir Tom Finney had been at Preston. People would ask ‘Why isn’t he playing for Manchester United then?’ He was just happy to be at a club he had known since he was 16, happy to be 30 minutes away from his family in the Channel Islands. I think he would have been brilliant at a club like Arsenal, but just because he didn’t make that jump doesn’t mean he’s not smart. Matt Le Tissier scores against Manchester United in 1996 as David Beckham (right) looks on . Le Tissier (left) scores a spectacular volley for Southampton against Wimbledon in 1994 . David Beckham with Le Tissier in 1999 - the former Manchester United star misses out on Redknapp's XI . Patrick Vieira was a different type of midfield player and one every club would like to take now. He almost came to me at Tottenham from Inter Milan. I thought it was an incredible decision by him, after he’d been such a hero at Arsenal. I met him at his house in Hampstead and he had no fear about what people would think or what reception he would get. He had enough confidence in his ability to just brush it away. I remember talking to Daniel Levy, our chairman, about him. He said the crowd would be hostile. I knew that - but if he had enough bottle to want to put on our white shirt after all that had gone before, I thought it said something about the man. Patrick Vieira drives past Luis Boa Morte in 2001 - the Arsenal star was the ultimate box-to-box midfielder . Vieira and his great rival Roy Keane clash during a match at Highbury in 1999 - it wouldn't be the last time . In the end, his circumstances changed and he decided to stay in Italy. By the time he did become available - the following January - our needs had changed and Manchester City snapped him up. Patrick is the player Arsenal have never really replaced, but I still find it bizarre that he ended up in a blazer at Manchester City. Shouldn’t he be at Arsenal? It is ironic that so many associate Arsene Wenger with the beautiful game, yet his Arsenal teams, with Vieira - the ultimate box-to-box midfielder - did as much as anybody to introduce real physical power into the modern Premier League. Tony Adams: A leader of men at 16 . I first saw him aged 16 and I don’t think I have ever seen a player of that age bossing a game in that way. It stayed with me for a long time. Tony was such an influence that he as good as ran every dressing-room he played in, for England and Arsenal. Tony Adams was a brilliant and inspirational captain who led from the front for Arsenal, says Redknapp . Redknapp saw Adams play as a 16-year-old and said he bossed the game at an extremely young age . Adams (left) clears the ball away during an international for England against Norway at Wembley in 1992 . Giggs would have solved England's problems... he was born to play left wing . Wenger heralded a change in English football... he introduced Prozone and scouting reports . Ravel Morrison has the class of Bale but his attitude is holding back his talent . Vieira and Keane are warriors... they were even prepared to do battle while working on TV! Why Redknapp fears that the English manager is in danger of becoming extinct . Vieira nearly crossed North London to join Spurs... and Suarez was close to signing too . Pies in the canteen and throwing teacups at players... the Premier League killed all that! Sportsmail's Head of Sport Lee Clayton interviews Redknapp about his new book . Stuart Pearce: Search-and-destroy 'Psycho' My West Ham chairman wouldn’t let me buy him, aged 34, because he said he was too old. I eventually got him at 37, he played 50 games in two seasons and was voted Hammer of the Year. He was on a search-and-destroy mission in every game. The first time the ball came to you he was going to smash you, run all over you, chip you into the stand and then take the ball, run forward and shoot. Then he’d get back just as fast as he got up. He was a dream left-back. Stuart Pearce, nicknamed 'Psycho' and seen screaming during Euro 96, was the 'perfect left back' Redknapp (left) eventually signed Pearce at West Ham United as a 37-year-old having courted him for years . The left back, here playing for Newcastle United against Everton in 1998, was good in attack and defence . Roy Keane: The pussycat . Do you know why it took so long for Roy Keane to get his break as a kid? He was a bit timid. Unbelievable isn’t it? But those were the words of our Irish scout, and he knew him inside out. He was a right-winger at the time, and they thought he was a bit soft. It is amazing how people change. Roy Keane (right) was not picked up by Redknapp's Irish scout because he was deemed to be a 'bit timid' Keane forged a wonderful career with Manchester United, including captaining them against Juventus . Keane takes a swing at old foe Alan Shearer during a United defeat at Newcastle in 2001 . The former Ireland midfielder (right) competes for the ball during a match for Nottingham Forest in 1992 .

Even simple tasks used to be fraught with difficulty for Fraser Booth. The four-year-old, who is autistic, easily became overwhelmed by everyday events, resulting in tears and temper tantrums. Then Billy the stray cat came along. Abandoned by his previous owner and rescued from a boarded-up council house by a charity, he had not had the easiest start to life. Before Billy the stray cat came along, four-year-old Fraser, who is autistic, struggled with simple tasks . But since their first meeting, Fraser . and Billy have been inseparable – and the moggy has helped bring the . little boy out of his shell. Now, whether it’s playtime, storytime or bedtime, Billy is there to offer a reassuring paw. And he is the first to sense when Fraser is getting frustrated, calming him down with a cuddle or comforting purr. Fraser’s . mother Louise said: ‘If Fraser is around or playing in the garden, . Billy is never far away. It is like he is watching Fraser and calming . his behaviour. ‘He . always appears when Fraser is getting upset and offers his head close to . Fraser’s to reassure him and recently, when Fraser was poorly, Billy . sat on his lap all day. ‘They say animals can sense things, but Billy seems to know before anybody else if Fraser is going to get upset.’ Best friends: Billy the stray cat had not had the easiest start to life but he and Fraser, aged four, have found a special companionship in each other . Since their first meeting, Fraser and Billy have been inseparable ¿ and the moggy has helped bring the little boy out of his shell . Mrs Booth, who is a full-time mother . to Fraser and his 15-month-old sister Pippa, added: ‘It sounds crackers, . but it is like Billy is Fraser’s guardian. Their relationship is . something really special.’ Fraser . was diagnosed with autism when he was 18 months old after Mrs Booth, . 38, and her electrician husband, Chris, 43, noticed he was not . developing as quickly as other children his age. ‘It . was glaringly obvious to me early on that something was wrong,’ Mrs . Booth said. ‘Fraser would cry all the time and wouldn’t respond to me or . any toys we put in front of him.’ Since . his diagnosis, Fraser has been undergoing therapy. While he is able to . talk to his parents and run around like other children of his age, he . still struggles to cope with routine tasks, resulting in temper tantrums . and tears. ‘Every day life can be a challenge for Fraser because . ordinary tasks can be extremely difficult for him,’ added Mrs Booth, who . lives on the Balmoral estate in Aberdeenshire. Fraser's mother Louise said: 'If Fraser is around or playing in the garden, Billy is never far away. It is like he is watching Fraser and calming his behaviour.' Whether he's needed for a cuddle or acting as a prop for a book, Billy is happy to be there for Fraser . 'Billy has made a complete difference to our family life, he's taken away the stress, he's added happiness and an air of calm, he's just been amazing.' ‘He is not trapped in his own little world – as most people assume with people with autism – he is a happy little boy, but he can become frustrated or upset easily at the drop of a switch. ‘For example, if he sees a character on television he doesn’t like, or if we try to get him out of the bath and he doesn’t want to, there is usually a meltdown.’ But the arrival of Billy from a Cats Protection shelter 12 months ago has changed Fraser’s behaviour. ‘The first time we took Fraser to see Billy, the cat went straight to him,’ Mrs Booth added. ‘Fraser sat down on the floor and Billy laid across him with his paws on his legs and just started purring. Fraser said “This is our cat, he can come live with us,” and that was that.’ ‘Billy has made a complete difference to our family life, he’s taken away the stress, he’s added happiness and an air of calm, he’s just been amazing. ‘We gave a donation of around £30 to the charity but for us he is priceless. He makes Fraser so happy all the time.’ To make a donation to the charity or to adopt a cat go to the Cats Protection website by clicking here.

Crow was found slumped over in his . pickup truck the next day, dead of a single shot to the head from a . .22-caliber pistol. Surveillance video helped lead police to Cook and a . man who was with him.

In an open letter to President Barack Obama published Tuesday, dozens of doctors asked to be allowed to treat hunger-striking prisoners at the U.S. detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. For four months, many detainees at Guantanamo have been on a hunger strike, protesting their detention at the facility. "It is clear that they do not trust their military doctors," the more than 150 doctors and other medical professionals wrote in an open letter published online by The Lancet medical journal. "They have very good reason for this, as you should know, from the current protocols of the Joint Task Force Guantanamo, which those doctors are ordered to follow." In May, 13 detainees wrote an open letter in the UK-based Guardian newspaper asking to see civilian doctors because they said they did not trust the military doctors whom they accused of force-feeding them against their will. In their letter to Obama, the doctors and medical professionals said: "The orders they receive are ultimately your orders as their Commander-in-Chief. Without trust, safe and acceptable medical care of mentally competent patients is impossible. Since the detainees do not trust their military doctors, they are unlikely to comply with current medical advice." Of the 166 detainees at Guantanamo, 104 are on a hunger strike to protest their treatment an indefinite detention, according to Capt. Robert Durand, a spokesman for the detention facility. Forty-four of the detainees have received "enteral feeding," where a tube is inserted through the nose and down the throat to administer liquids, military officials said. The detainee protest began last year, with five to six detainees starting and stopping hunger strikes. But the number grew after lawyers for some of those held drew attention to conditions at the facility, Army Lt. Col. Todd Breasseale, a spokesman on detainee issues at the Pentagon, said earlier this year. Human rights groups have long protested the detention of suspected enemy fighters who haven't been charged with crimes. The government says the detainees are too dangerous to transfer but cannot be tried, characterizing them as war prisoners under the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force Act. Obama has recently renewed his vow to shut the prison established last decade to house suspected terrorists. The open letter from the doctors came a day after the federal government was forced to release the names of dozens of detainees at the military prison after a newspaper sued the federal government for the information. The list released Monday identifies 46 inmates being held for "continued detention" at the facility. The report was made public after a lawsuit by the Miami Herald. The Obama administration first acknowledged that detainees were being held indefinitely in Guantanamo in 2010 but didn't make their identities public until now. Of the 46 detainees listed for indefinite detention, the report shows that 26 are from Yemen, 10 are from Afghanistan, three are from Saudi Arabia, two each are from Libya and Kuwait, and one each are from Kenya, Somalia and Morocco.
The Lancet medical journal published the open letter on Tuesday . The letter is signed by more than 150 doctors and medical professionals . They are asking the president to allow them to treat the hunger-striking detainees . Thirteen detainees wrote an open letter in May pleading for civilian doctors .

Gaza (CNN) -- Nafoz Mohammed is living in a cramped two-room apartment with 16 other people, including several children, who spend the day- and nighttime hours holed up in fear. "All the children feel so scared when they cut the electricity," said Mohammed, who shares the tight space with others whose homes were hit by artillery. "They just keep holding their mothers." For the more than 1.8 million people squeezed into a territory about twice the size of Washington, chaos has always infringed on the daily rhythms of life. But the latest conflict with neighboring Israel has compounded the misery of many. Since Tuesday, residents have been without electricity. Without television. Without refrigeration. Without water pumps and sewage systems. For the fortunate few who can afford them, buzzing generators provide some relief. At the main hospital, already stretched by weeks of fighting that left more than 1,500 people dead and thousands wounded, a pair of mega-generators powered crucial life-support equipment. Days after Gaza's only power plant was hit, the latest attempt at a cease-fire fell apart Friday after Israel said that one of its soldiers was captured by Palestinian militants. Gaza residents were left with the anxiety of an uncertain future. 'Killing civilian life in Gaza' As has happened with so many aspects of the conflict, the principals blamed each for the power plant's demise. Palestinian officials pointed at an Israeli airstrike. Israel insisted that the power plant was not a target. By early Tuesday, at least 40% of Gaza's fuel had been burned, according to Fathi al-Sheikh Khalil, deputy chairman of the Palestinian Energy and Natural Resources Authority in Gaza. The plant, which will have to be rebuilt, will not operate as it did for at least a year. "This is a disaster," he said. He said a 300,000-liter fuel tank -- which supplied about a day of electricity in Gaza -- was hit and burst into flames. Heavy shelling delayed firefighters from responding, allowing the fire to spread to other fuel tanks. "We cannot supply electricity to hospitals or water pumps or sewage treatment or for domestic use," Khalil said. "People have to pump the water to the residential tanks but don't have electricity." Jamal Derdsawoi, a representative of Gaza's electric company, also pointed at Israel. "By attacking the power plant and cutting the electricity, they're killing the civilian life in Gaza," he said. An Israeli military spokeswoman said after checking with ground, air and naval forces in the area of the power plant that there was "no indication that (Israel Defense Forces) were involved in the strike. ... The area surrounding the plant was also not struck in recent days." Plant workers said the facility took fire for three days before Tuesday's strike. On Sunday, they said, the plant's administration building took a direct hit. The United Nations has said that a deliberate strike on the plant would be a violation of humanitarian law. Before the fighting, most of Gaza's power actually came from Israel, but transmission lines on both sides of the border have been damaged by either Israeli missiles or Hamas rockets. Repairs on the lines could take a week, but no agreement has been reached on when that work can begin. Last month, one Israeli politician called on the government to permanently cut electricity to Gaza, especially since the Palestinians owe tens of millions of dollars in electric bills. Darkness and isolation of war . Many Gaza residents have seen their neighborhoods hit hard and loved ones killed or wounded since Israel began Operation Protective Edge against Hamas on July 8. About a quarter of a million people in the small, impoverished territory have been displaced by the conflict, according to the United Nations. That's about 14% of Gaza's population of 1.8 million. Those killed include 327 children and 166 women, the Gaza health ministry reports. UNICEF said that about two-thirds of the children killed were 12 or younger. The United Nations estimates that more than 70% of the more than 1,500 Palestinians killed have been civilians. More than 150 were members of armed groups, the U.N. said. Israel blames Hamas for civilian deaths, saying militants encourage people to stay in their homes despite Israeli warnings that strikes are coming. Militants also use civilian facilities such as houses, schools, mosques and hospitals to launch attacks on Israeli civilians and store weapons. Three civilians have been killed in Israel since the conflict began, while many more have been forced to take shelter as rockets rained overhead. Sixty-one Israeli soldiers have been killed during the hostilities, with five of those deaths occurring Thursday evening. Yasmeen El Khoudary, a 24-year-old woman who lives in Gaza City, said she's had no power for two days. She has not left her house in a week. There is enough food available to residents, El Khoudary said, but safety was a bigger concern. "We only eat when we remember to eat," she said. She added, "We have seen that the bombings are not precise." Her Internet service was restored Thursday, El Khoudary said. In the darkness and isolation of war, she blogs about life. "My thoughts are interrupted by an Israeli bombing that shakes our two story house like a rattle in the hand of a little baby," she wrote. "To my surprise, my brother is still awake. He comes to wish me a 'good' night before he goes to sleep. Stuck to his ear is a small radio that bewitches his face as he tells me that 20 people from Al Najjar family were collectively murdered in Khan Yonis. Good night, Omar." She never wants to see that small radio again. "It bears nothing but news of death and has the ability to bewitch the face of its holder (often holding it like they'd hold a cellphone) to fuming with anger, torn with sadness, ridden with fear, and rarely, filled with hope," she wrote. CNN's Jessica King and Kareem Khadder contributed to this story.

By . Talal Musa . Published: . 10:46 EST, 25 June 2013 . | . Updated: . 14:58 EST, 25 June 2013 . Rating: . Price: £30 / $46 (RRP) Nobody does the art of war like Company of Heroes. And while this long-awaited sequel isn't quite the masterpiece it could have been, there's still plenty here for strategy fans to enjoy. For a start, Company of Heroes 2 shifts action away from Western Europe and focuses on the desperate battles on the Eastern Front. Conflicts where Soviet troops juggled a war on two fronts - against both Hitler's army and the unrelenting, merciless forces of nature. Frantic: When played on a powerful PC, you'll be treated to visuals that rank amongst the best for the genre . You'll watch your brave troops freeze to death in bitter-cold wind, fall through icy lakes, or be reduced to dust in milliseconds by heavily artillery fire. Company and Heroes 2 sets out to force-feed you a heavy helping of realism, and it largely delivers. It's a shame, then, that the slow-paced 14-mission campaign doesn't make the most of the ColdTech dynamic weather system. When working in tandem with the TrueSight feature - accurately representing your units' visible range, it makes for particularly tense moments. Many campaign levels feel slightly linear, with optional objectives randomly scattered around. It's only until the latter parts of the skirmish that you're given more freedom to build an unstoppable military force. Immersion is not helped by some of the worst cutscenes to grace the PC in recent years. Boasting googly-eyed soldiers and comically bad textures, they're in stark contrast to the game's undeniable beauty when running at maximal settings. Company of Heroes 2 rightly explores dark narratives such as friendly fire and punishment for cowardice, however, given how poorly executed the cutscenes are, the horrific message falls completely flat. Thankfully, away from the narrative is where this game's strengths lie. Along with its dependable multiplayer, the star attraction is the Theatre of War mode. Here you can take part in a number of different scenarios, from fighting battles in harsh environmental conditions to holding off wave after wave of advancing enemy troops. The lack of plot constraints means you can approach each battle how and when you like, without having to wait to try out some of the Soviets' devastating hardware. Relentless: Thanks to the game's Essence Engine 3.0, environments are destructive while character models remain impressive even when zoomed in on the action. Water, in particular, looks superb . Larger scale battles sometimes bring with them their more comical moments. Soldiers move around like a colony of ants - frantically running in circles and randomly going prone. However, most of the skirmishes are as grisly as they are memorable. Company of Heroes 2 was played using an Nvidia GeForce 680 GTX Sli set-up and EVGA Precision X software. For more information visit: geforce.com . Company of Heroes 2 is out now. Let us know what you think on Twitter: @DailyMailGames and on Facebook: Daily Mail Games.
Brutal, memorable gameplay focusing on a relatively unexplored conflict in World War 2 games . ColdTech dynamic weather system works well when allowed to . Theatre of War mode far surpasses anything in the campaign . Poor cutscenes don't do some of the game's darker moments justice .

Geneva, Switzerland (CNN) -- Iranian officials sat down Monday with the United States and other countries trying to put the brakes on Tehran's nuclear program, a day after Iran announced it is self-sufficient in the nuclear fuel cycle. There was "an exchange of views and concerns," between the Iranians and envoys from the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council, plus Germany, a diplomatic source familiar with the talks told CNN. The Iranian nuclear program was the main issue on the table, the source said. Iran has previously said it did not want the talks to focus on that. Iran also raised some of its concerns, the source said, including attacks on two Iranian scientists in Tehran last week that left one dead and one injured. The diplomatic source and a Western official later both told CNN that the talks had ended for the day and would resume Tuesday. The United States and other countries fear that Iran wants to develop nuclear weapons, an allegation Tehran has always denied. The meeting in Switzerland is between Iran on the one hand and the so-called P5 plus 1 group -- the United States, China, France, Germany, Russia and United Kingdom -- on the other. But bilateral talks also are going on, the diplomatic source said, refusing to say who was talking to whom. The source asked not to be identified because of the sensitivity of the negotiations. The talks are going on behind closed doors and no public statements have been made so far. They'll continue Tuesday, the source said. And the P5 plus 1 nations are prepared to offer more talks if the Iranians agree to focus seriously on the nuclear issue. The group has been meeting intermittently, with the last round of talks coming over a year ago. Mike Hammer, a spokesman for the U.S. National Security Council, said Sunday the talks would try "to underscore the concern of the entire international community in Iran's actions and intentions." Iran already faces stiff sanctions from the international community, because it has continued to enrich uranium. With the political barbs flying back and forth regularly, tensions were raised even further last Monday when bombers targeted two Iranian nuclear scientists. Iran blamed Israel, the United States and the United Kingdom's spy agencies for the attacks, which killed Majid Shahriari and injured Fereydoun Abbasi. But Ali Akbar Salehi, the head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization, told state-run Press TV on Sunday that the "assassination of Iranian scientists will not hamper our progress." Salehi also said that Iran is now producing yellowcake, meaning its nuclear program is self-sufficient since it now produces everything needed to make nuclear fuel. He said the yellowcake came from the Gachin mine near Gander Abbas, on Iran's southern coast near the Strait of Hormuz. It's not clear that Iran actually has the technology to complete the entire nuclear fuel cycle, despite Sunday's announcement. But U.S. officials weren't surprised by the announcement, with Hammer saying, "Iran has been trying to develop an indigenous program for years given that the import of yellowcake is banned by United Nations Security Council resolutions." He said the move raises further concerns about the Middle Eastern country's intentions, "given that Iran's own supply of uranium is not enough for a peaceful nuclear energy program."

(CNN) -- English Premier League champions Manchester United posted record third-quarter revenue of £91.7 million [$142 million] on the back of new sponsorship deals in Asia and Europe. The club, who have just claimed their 20th Premier League title, reported a 52.2% increase in sponsorship revenue having announced new deals with two financial services providers in Denmark and Vietnam as well as an agreement with a Japanese social gaming company. As one of the world's most popular and successful sport teams, United has a total of 36 corporate sponsors despite gross debt standing at £367.6 million. Financial football expert Andy Green tweeted: "In next few years #MUFC will generate over £200m in surplus cash. What will it be used for?" Last month, the club signed an eight year deal with U.S. insurance giant Aon, to brand the club's training kit and attach its name to the Carrington training ground. Read more: Manchester United pen new multi-million dollar Aon deal . It is the first time the English Premier League giants have sold the branding rights to their coveted training ground on the outskirts of Manchester and represents another step in the club's strategy to increase revenues. The drive for sponsorship revenue comes at a time when United is seeking to bring in new players for the 2013/14 season in September, as the team prepares to defend its domestic title and attempt to win the European Cup for fourth time. Earlier this week, manager Alex Ferguson promised the club would be "competitive" in the summer transfer market as they hope to rival other title contenders such as Manchester City and Chelsea. Speaking to Inside United, the club's official magazine, Ferguson said: "Hopefully the players we bring into the club in the next year or so will be of the quality we need." United have reportedly been linked with moves for Borussia Dortmund's Polish striker Robert Lewandowski and Atletico Madrid's prolific forward Radamel Falcao. Although United coasted to the Premier League title, Ferguson's side was knocked out of the Champions League by Real Madrid in the quarterfinals. The Old Trafford club is owned by the American Glazer family, who oversaw the club's listing on the New York Stock Exchange last August. For the 2011/2012 season, United increased revenues by £14.2 million to £117.6 million, the highest of any club in the Premier League.

By . Associated Press Reporter . One of eight circus acrobats who plummeted about 20 feet to the ground during a hair-hanging stunt says she's thankful she's alive and wants to return to the ring. 'I'm hoping to join back up with the tour and show the world that I'm OK, and I'm hoping some of the other girls will do the same,' Samantha Pitard told The Associated Press yesterday after she was released from a hospital. Pitard and seven other acrobats were in an act described as a 'human chandelier', in which they were hanging from an apparatus by their hair. They were injured during a Sunday performance of the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circus when a clip at the top of the chandelier-like apparatus snapped, dropping them to the ground 20 or more feet below.

Bloomington, Indiana (CNN) -- As Zoroastrian funerary processions enter the graveyard overlooking the Tehran suburb of Ray, their sobriety is often shattered by the sound of explosions and gunfire. Frequently, the way forward is blocked by Islamic Revolutionary Guards conducting a combat exercise among the tombs. According to Zoroastrian custom, burial needs to take place within 24 hours, and the Revolutionary Guards will not halt their training activities there for the funerals. This is just another sign of religious freedom fading in the Islamic Republic. Much that is written about the Zoroastrians of Iran portrays them as a venerable and quaint religious community. But these followers of an ancient faith are not insulated from the tribulations of their country. Zoroastrianism is named after its founder, the prophet Zarathustra -- or Zoroaster, as he came to be known in the West -- who preached sometime between 1800 and 1000 B.C. Zoroaster spoke of humans siding with God (called Ahura Mazda, or the Wise Lord) against the devil (called Angra Mainyu, or the Angry Spirit) and fighting for all that is right. In time, those concepts became central to Judaism, Christianity and Islam. So did Zoroastrian beliefs that each soul faces judgment after death before entering heaven, limbo or hell, and that all of humanity will experience resurrection, final judgment and heaven on Earth. Ancient Persian kings like Cyrus and Darius followed their faith's basic tenet of doing good by freeing Israelites from the Babylonian Exile and supporting construction of the Second Temple at Jerusalem. Zoroastrianism's clergymen, or magi, are known around the world as the wise men in attendance at the nativity of Jesus. Until Arabs conquered Iran during the seventh century, Zoroastrians, Jews and Christians there could practice their own devotions unhindered. Thereafter, they became minorities who were persecuted and largely converted to Islam. When the Islamic revolution occurred in 1979, fundamentalist Shiites stormed the fire temple at Tehran. There, Zoroastrians worship in front of a blazing fire, as a symbol of God's grace, just like Christians face a cross and Muslims turn to a qibla pointing toward Mecca. The portrait of Zoroaster was tossed down, a photograph of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini was put up in its place, and the congregation was warned not to remove the image of Iran's new leader. Only months later could the prophet's picture be mounted upon an adjacent wall. Their schools and classrooms began to be covered with images of Supreme Leaders Ayatollah Khomeini and Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and with verses of the Quran that denounce non-Muslims. Those who do well academically nonetheless find no openings within state-controlled universities. When the bloody war with Iraq raged from 1980 to 1988, young Zoroastrians were involuntarily drafted for suicide missions in the Iranian army. Rejecting the Shiite mullahs' claim that military martyrdom would lead them to a heaven full of virgins was futile. Failing to offer their lives on the battlefield could result in execution for treason. Then in November 2005, Ayatollah Ahmed Jannati, chairman of the Council of Guardians of the Constitution, disparaged Zoroastrians and other religious minorities as "sinful animals who roam the earth and engage in corruption." When the Zoroastrians' solitary parliamentary representative protested, he was hauled before a revolutionary tribunal. There, mullahs threatened execution before sparing his life with a warning never to challenge their declarations again. A frightened community subsequently declined to re-elect him. Over the past two years, many Muslim Iranians have begun publicly rejecting the Shiite theocracy's intolerant ways by adopting symbols and festivals from Zoroastrianism. Those actions are denounced as causing "harm and corruption" by ayatollahs like Khamenei and Jannati. Sensing that popular sentiment among Iran's Muslim majority is shifting away from the mullahs, even President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has begun utilizing Zoroastrianism's past for his own political ends. In September 2010, he arranged for the Cyrus Cylinder, a sixth-century B.C. document that speaks of religious tolerance and Iranian greatness, to be loaned from the British Museum. During a public ceremony in Tehran, Ahmadinejad lauded indigenous traditions as superior to Arab-imposed Islam. Privately, his chief of staff, Esfandiar Rahim Mashaei, even referred to King Cyrus as "a messenger of God." Their tottering political base has sharpened the Shiite clerics' ire. Like members of the Christian, Jewish and Baha'i minorities, Zoroastrian activists who protest the theocracy's excesses are sent to Tehran's notorious Evin prison on charges of sedition. At the ayatollahs' instigation, Iranian media characterizes the followers of Iran's ancient faith as polytheists and devil worshipers. Lesser mullahs rant against Zoroastrians not only in Iran, but even at mosques in Toronto. The Zoroastrian cemetery outside Tehran now faces another challenge: The municipality seeks to lay a highway through it. Some schools and devotional centers in other Zoroastrian strongholds like Yazd and Kerman have also been notified of pending annexation. Communal gatherings are routinely monitored by fundamentalist Muslim authorities who allege that Zoroastrianism "threatens national security and subverts the Islamic revolution." Protections offered by the Islamic Republic's constitution have been rendered meaningless in practice. Not surprisingly, the daily regimen of discrimination makes Zoroastrians feel wholly unwelcome in their Iranian homeland. Only between 35,000 and 90,000 now remain in a country of approximately 74 million citizens -- and, fearing persecution, many do not readily identify themselves as Zoroastrians. Yet, Zoroastrians are no mere footnote in human history and religiosity. Their ideas still determine how many of the globe's residents behave. The end of Zoroastrianism in Iran should be prevented. Making religious freedom a priority in U.S. and EU foreign policies will help achieve that goal. The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Jamsheed K. Choksy.

Living with a snoring partner can be nothing short of torture. But former BBC journalist Rosie Millard claims to have found a cure to a problem which plagues millions of couples. Miss Millard says she was forced to search for a remedy after her husband recently began to snore, preventing her from sleeping. Problem solved: Rosie Millard and husband Pip Clothier who tried the Good Night Snoring Ring . Rather than use remedies such as nasal strips and mouth sprays, the mother of four says she persuaded her husband, 53-year-old TV producer Pip Clothier, to try the Good Night Snoring Ring, which works by applying acupressure to the wearer’s finger. She claims that the £30 silver device fixed the problem almost immediately. On her website, 47-year-old Miss Millard, BBC art correspondent between 1995 and 2004, said: ‘Mr Millard didn’t always snore. But recently, it’s been a bit noisy chez nous. So, he has tried two things. This is the first. The Good Night Snoring Ring. ‘As you can see, the ring has a . little dimple on one side, and a sort of shelf on the other. These are . crucial. They are twin acupressure points. 'Rather . like those car-sickness bands which press key positions on the . underside of your wrist (and work brilliantly), the snore ring does the . same on your finger. ‘Thirty minutes before slumber time, . The Snorer should place the ring at the base of his/her little finger . with the gap facing upwards. 'The . overall effect is that your partner is suddenly wearing a signet ring. Very posh. 'If you like this Downton effect, great. If you don’t, never . mind. Just turn over and go to sleep. You will not be disturbed. ‘In the morning, the ring comes off. You must not wear it during the day. Who knew?’ Miss Millard says the problem might also have been alleviated by a second measure. Her husband has taken up regular cycling, helping him lose weight. Around one in four women and four in ten men are frequent snorers, while half the population is said to snore occasionally. A recent US study has claimed that . snorers are more likely to have a heart attack than smokers or the . obese, and the condition could thicken the arteries, leading to brain . haemorrhages, strokes and heart attacks.

He is barely old enough to drive a car, let along a 50-tonne aircraft. But youngster Jonathan Irwin has become one of the country's youngest pilots ever to fly passengers on a commercial jet after being offered a job with British Airways at the age of 21. Mr Irwin, from Yorkshire, recently joined the airline as a First Officer, and will be assigned to fly an Airbus A320 aircraft from Gatwick Airport. He is scheduled to fly on short-haul routes across Europe. Scroll down for video . Mr Irwin, from Yorkshire, recently joined British Airways as a First Officer, and will be assigned to fly an Airbus A320 aircraft from Gatwick Airport . Mr Irwin's family said that being a pilot had been Jonathan's dream since he was just 11 years old. He was just 16 when he piloted a glider solo and has since spent five years training with the Air Training Corps 168 Leeds. Mr Irwin's father Paul said that his son is now dreaming of becoming a Captain. 'Ever since he was 11, Jonathan wanted to become a pilot,' he said. 'We're not an aviation family and he decided to go for it on his own. He's living his dream and he is absolutely loving it. 'We are absolutely delighted. It is a difficult profession and he has worked extremely hard. It's worth it to help pursue his dream and to see him happy.' According to the UK Civil Aviation Authority, the minimum age to be licensed for a commercial pilot's license is 18 if the pilot has earned an EASA Part-FCL Class 1 Medical Certificate and has met the training requirements. Paul added: 'If anyone is thinking of becoming a pilot, then work hard and go for it!' British Airways’ manager for pilot recruitment, Lindsay Craig, said: 'Jonathan, and all the other pilots from our British Airways Future Pilot Programme have done fantastically well to get through their rigorous training to arrive at this point. A British Airways Airbus 320 aircraft, similar to the plane that Mr Irwin will be flying for the airline . 'The training is incredibly tough, and standards are very high to ensure British Airways continues to get the best possible new pilots.' Mr Irwin's success comes just over a year after Merseyside teenager Ryan Irwin was offered a job as a pilot with Ryanair at the age of 19. Ryan, who is no relation to Jonathan, was offered a job with the budget carrier after qualifying as a pilot from the prestigious Oxford Aviation Academy. In 2008, 19-year-old Ed Gardner became the country's youngest commercial pilot when he was cleared to take the controls of a Boeing 737. He received his commercial licence while still a teenager and within a day had started work with Stansted-based charter firm, Titan Airways. Also in 2008 schoolboy Jack Dopson was awarded a Private Pilot's Licence at the age of just 16, just three months after he started taking flying lessons. The teenager took his first flying lesson less than a week after finishing his GCSE exams and six days before his 16th birthday. In 2012, Rachael Spelling became the youngest girl in Britain to pilot an aeroplane after taking to the skies on her 16th birthday. She first started taking accompanied flying lessons at the age of 14, soaring to 2,000ft in sole control of a Piper Archer aeroplane the moment she reached the minimum legal age for flying alone.

By . Amanda Williams . PUBLISHED: . 11:47 EST, 24 February 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 11:56 EST, 24 February 2013 . A school girl who was in so much pain she became hooked on 12 painkillers-a-day has made an amazing recovery. Louiselle Morris, from Cardiff, was just 13 when she went for a routine visit to her doctor for what she thought was a common cold. But instead she was diagnosed with crippling scoliosis - an extreme curving of the spine  - and was given a morphine-like drug for the pain. Louiselle Morris from Cardiff (pictured now 20), who became addicted to painkillers to cope with a debilitating condition has made a remarkable recovery . By the time she was 14 she was relying on twelve painkillers a day. Thanks to an intense course of physiotherapy, Miss Morris, now 20, has learnt to deal with the aches without medication. She said: 'I was already a hormonal 14-year-old.I just did not want to go outside. I was a self conscious teenager. I wondered what people were saying about my back and I thought I was ugly. 'My school attendance was erratic and I couldn't walk more than 500 metres. Since the physiotherapy I can go to university and to work without being in too much pain. 'I can now manage a day without feeling like I've been hit by a sledgehammer.' An x-ray of Louiselle Morris showing the extreme curving of the spine. She was diagnosed with crippling scoliosis . She was told that if the scoliosis was left untreated it could lead to fatal heart and lung problems. Her spine was a 48 degree curve and there was a risk that her rib cage could shift and move her internal organs. The only treatment for the chronic condition was a high risk operation where two metal rods would be stuck into her spine and then fused solid. But her condition was borderline and doctors refused to operate because she was in too much pain. Within months she was suffering from chronic pain and could not walk more than fifty metres or go to school without collapsing. Her mother Susan Morris said: 'Three months after she was diagnosed, Louiselle had changed. She had gone from being a typical, active teenage girl to living life as an 80-year-old woman, confined to the four walls of her bedroom.' She would try walking around, lying on her back and on her front, but nothing helped. Doctors prescribed Louiselle tramadol, a strong painkiller, to cope. The drug is similar to morphine and is only used as a short term answer to chronic pain. She was so reliant on painkillers that she was taking four tramadol and eight paracetamol every day. Mrs Morris, 49, said: 'She was in a terrible state, it was horrendous. 'She lost so much confidence and I was desperate. I tried everything to get her off the medication. 'To see her in so much pain was so scary. I would have driven to the end of the world to try and help her.' Her daughter added: 'I was sleeping and I just didn't see a way out of it. I couldn't see how the situation was going to resolve itself. 'I was just trying to cope with the here and now and that was the only way I could at that time.' Her mother said she had reached breaking point when she found a clinic that could help. She said: 'I remember speaking to Scoliosis SOS who understood everything I was saying. They knew how I felt as a parent and how traumatic it could be for the child involved.' They drove six hours to the clinic with Louiselle doubled over in pain on the back seat of the car. She had a consultation and was put on an intensive exercise therapy course four days later, which consisted of six hours of exercises each day for four weeks. She was taught what the condition means, the effects it has on the body and was prescribed an individual physiotherapy treatment. She said: 'I was going through withdrawal because I had been taking so many tablets. It was one of the worst pains you can imagine. 'My whole body felt like it was turning in on me, it was absolutely horrendous. 'I was throwing up violently for about a week and had nausea and muscular cramps.' But by the end of the second week of therapy, she was off the painkillers. Mrs Morris said: 'Tramadol is so highly addictive and the person taking it has to want to stop, or else you haven't got a hope in hell. She became so reliant on painkillers that she was taking four tramadol and eight paracetamol every day (stock image) Louiselle with her mother Susan. Her mother said she had reached breaking point when she found a clinic that could help . 'Scoliosis SOS' whole body approach to treating scoliosis and dealing with associated pain was that light at the end of the tunnel. It was a means to so many ends. 'We got her down to one tramadol a day. Stopping her take the last one was such a battle but she realised how important it was to stop. She said to me, 'right it's going to go in the bin'.' She spent up to six hours a day at the clinic stretching and strengthening her muscles with intensive exercises. She said: 'The exercise therapy changed my life. I have no idea where I would have been if my mum had not found the centre when she did. 'I could not do anything and my whole life was just slipping away from me.' Her pain had been caused by an imbalance of the muscles and after her muscles had been strengthened and stretched, she said it had almost disappeared. She said: 'The clinic has given me the confidence to believe in myself. I feel like I am in control again and scoliosis no longer rules my life.' Miss Morris returns to the London clinic every couple of months for a two-hour session to review her progress and keep her on track. Instead of numbing the pain the drugs, Louiselle will now exercise or take a hot bath to ease her aching back. She said her pain has gone from excruciating to an occasional ache. She is studying psychology at Cardiff Metropolitan University and wants to help other young girls. She said: 'I have loved every second of university and I really do put my happiness down to these exercises. 'My mum has stood by me and fought so hard to help me. She has been fantastic. I don't feel like a hunchback anymore. I am normal and I can finally look forward to my future.'

(CNN) -- Australia has won the Ashes -- now it wants to rub salt in English wounds by pulling off a whitewash. Tuesday's victory in Perth gave Australia an unassailable 3-0 lead with two games remaining -- two games in which it will attempt to exact revenge on an England side which has dominated the Ashes in recent years. Having lost the previous three Ashes series, Australia was expected to put up a brave fight against an England side which triumphed 3-0 on home soil only a few months ago. Instead, it produced a performance full of courage, vigor and quality -- blowing England away with a level of cricket which simply proved too aggressive and intense for the touring side. Victory in Perth by 150 runs ensured the Ashes urn returned to Australia after a 1,577 day absence and left captain Michael Clarke with even more reason to celebrate his 100th Test match appearance. "This is a special feeling," Clarke told reporters after sealing his first Ashes series win as skipper. "You won't find one guy in the changing room, player or support staff, who won't say this is the pinnacle, playing Test cricket against England. "I am going to enjoy 3-0 for as long as I can tonight. I am going to enjoy this feeling, but I can guarantee you there won't be any complacency. "We will turn up in Melbourne 100% ready to go and be doing everything we have done in the first three Test matches." Australia will now be aiming to produce a repeat of the 2006-7 series when it defeated England 5-0 in a humiliating whitewash. That defeat signaled a period of introspection into English cricket with the publication of the Schofield report -- a 19-step guide to improving the national team. Since then England has improved rapidly, winning three Ashes series in succession in 2009, 2010-11 and 2013. In August 2011 it became the top ranked side in Test match cricket -- but it has struggled since being replaced by South Africa at the summit in 2012. Its 2013 3-0 home victory over Australia was far from convincing with England's batsmen coming in for particular criticism. The team's failings, particularly with the bat, have been greatly exposed by an Australian side led by the fast bowling of Mitchell Johnson. Johnson has taken 23 wickets in the opening three Tests after failing to make the squad for the previous Ashes series. Only Ben Stokes, 22, has managed a century for the tourists in the opening three Test matches. England, which lost Jonathan Trott to a stress-related illness following the first Test defeat at Brisbane, has failed to reach 400 in a single innings since it faced New Zealand in Wellington in March 2013. Here, against a rampant Australian bowling attack, it wilted like the England teams of old, which were so often brushed aside. Needing an unlikely 506 in its second innings to win the contest at Perth's WACA stadium, it fell 150 runs short despite a magnificent 120 from newcomer Stokes. It means England will now head into the Boxing Day clash at the Melbourne Cricket Ground with only pride to play for. "The simple fact of the matter is we haven't had enough players in form with either bat or ball," captain Alastair Cook told reporters. "You can't put it any more honest than that, and people in the dressing room know that. "It hurts like hell when you come into a contest and you end up being second best." The two teams will meet in the fourth Test at the MCG on December 26 before moving on to Sydney for the final contest on Friday January 3.

By . Leon Watson . A middle-aged scientist has gone to great lengths to impress a girl - but unfortunately for him his chat up technique just did cut it. Wu Lei, 54, from Taiwan, was so keen on 23-year-old Ling Lin he went to the hairdresser and asked for a short back and sides that would help him stand out. And he got it when his hair was styled into a perfectly right-angled flat top - a bit like a Lego man. With that, he thought he could corner her. Scroll down for video . Edgy: Wu Lei, 54, said he had wanted to impress a 23-year-old girl who he had tried to chat up but who had rejected his advances . Unfortunately, it didn't work and Wu's beau rejected his advances. Ling said the hairdo had made her even more unlikely to respect him as he looked like a Lego figure or character from the video game 'Warcraft'. She added: 'My friends call him blockhead, I can imagine he might have found someone as he had a good and respectable job as a medical laboratory scientist at the National Taiwan University Hospital. But he should act his age.' Wu who is still single despite the expensive hairdo said: 'I can't understand it. I make an attractive monthly income of TWD 70,000 (£1,400). Bit of a square: The young woman, Ling Lin, said the hairdo had made her even more unlikely to respect him as he looked like a lego figure . Cornering her: Wu, who is still single despite the expensive hairdo, said: 'I can't understand it' 'I adopted this hairstyle because I wanted to look like a guy in his 20s or 30s to attract the girl who rejected me. Or in fact any girl.' Styling his hair was not an easy task. He reportedly needs to use up two cans of gel and spends two hours doing his hair. He can also only comb it once every 15 days to get rid of dead hair. But the hairdo and the media coverage it attracted has made Wu a hit on the streets, with people pointing out 'Blockhead' to their kids and taking snaps of him. The famous local comic artist Cherng Li even featured Wu in one of his stories after seeing him on the metro, saying 'I could not get his figure out of my mind, so I had to put it onto paper.'

(CNN) -- That Australia is once again defending itself against claims of racism is not surprising. Harry Connick Jr. gave the comedy skit a zero mark. That the cause of the furor is a childish, inappropriate racial 'joke' is even less of a surprise. Australian popular culture has a long held an often embarrassing tradition of wrapping racism in supposed humor. Movie star and singer Harry Connick Jr. condemned on air an Australian television skit featuring a group of performers who wore blackface to impersonate the late pop star Michael Jackson and his brothers. Connick was a judge on the Australian variety show "Hey Hey It's Saturday," when the blackface group "Jackson Jive" performed "Can You Feel It" wearing huge black wigs, blackface and one spangled glove each. The Michael Jackson impersonator wore whiteface. In the 1950s a popular song lampooned a 'misfit' Aborigine whose 'boomerang won't come back.' Popular entertainer Rolf Harris was even less sensitive in a verse of his song "Tie me kangaroo down sport" proclaiming that on his death one of his friends could free his captive Aborigines: "Let my Abos go loose, they're of no further use, so let my Abos go loose." A famous Australian illustrator known as Joliffe made his fame and fortune in a long-running cartoon depicting Aborigines as dim-witted, thick browed, naked, creatures from the stone age. It is not just indigenous Australians who have borne the brunt of these so-called jokes. Watch Connick's reaction to the 'blackface Jacksons' » . After World War II a new wave of immigrants arrived from southern Europe. Australians unused to such foreigners with odd sounding languages and strange smelling food quickly labeled the new comers 'wogs.' In the 1960s a popular film "They're A Weird Mob" mocked one of these immigrants for his poor English and strange customs. He finally wins approval by marrying his boss' daughter, a good Anglo Aussie, learning to swear and drink copious beers. There are just a few quick examples -- there are many, many others -- of how Australians use mockery and humor to disguise their discomfort with so-called 'outsiders.' The use of humor for a long time reflected official government policy that also scorned foreigners and Aborigines. Australian settlement in the 18th century was rooted in racism. Indigenous Australians were deemed not even to exist. British law proclaimed the continent Terra Nullius or empty land, extinguishing in an instant tens of thousands of years of Aboriginal occupation and ownership. Aborigines were dispossessed, often violently, and basic human freedoms, and rights to equal education, employment and welfare benefits denied. It was not until 1967 -- almost 200 years after European settlement -- that the law was changed to officially count Aborigines in the census as human beings and no longer included amongst the flora and fauna! For most of the last century Australia pursued a 'White Australia Policy.' It was designed to limit immigration only to those of white skin. In the first half of the century nearly 80 percent of all immigrants came from the United Kingdom. Despite being geographically in Asia, Australians generally viewed Asian people with suspicion dubbing them the 'yellow peril.' In the words of one of the prime ministers of the time Harold Holt "Australia must be kept preponderantly British in its institutions and compositions of its people." Immigrants, Holt conceded, "offered much" and in return they must simply "become Australian." For many that too often meant being forced to laugh along with jokes at their own expense. Times though, thankfully, have changed. The 'White Australia Policy' has long been consigned to history. Aborigines have struggled for and won a measure of equality of law and opportunity. Prime Minister Kevin Rudd last year apologized to Indigenous Australians for past mistreatment and injustice. Humor too has changed. A new generation of Australian comics from China, Vietnam, Italy, Greece and Lebanon have turned the tables; laughing at themselves and 'Anglo Aussies.' Comedian Joe Dolce scored a worldwide hit with his song 'Shaddap-a-your-face' a ditty spoofing his Italian broken English. A Greek-Australian comedy group filled theatres throughout the country with its play 'Wogs Out of Work.' Humor can be a great leveler. One of Australia's prouder traditions is egalitarianism, a nation where princes and paupers can on a simple human level meet each other as equals. Humor, in the right spirit pricks our pomposity, makes a virtue of our differences and reveals our common humanity. The ham-fisted 'Jackson Jive' routine achieved none of that. Appearing in blackface belongs in Australia's own dark past, back there, with the 'White Australia Policy', silly songs about Aborigines and Joliffe cartoons. Connick was right to give the comedy skit a zero. Connick's homeland America, is itself not free of racial issues, but in this case it took an American to tell those Australians who still find such offensive skits funny: "The Joke is on you!"

(CNN) -- Dr. Mehmet Oz is being sued for injures sustained by a New Jersey man. Was this person under Dr. Oz' care? Was he someone Dr. Oz had spoken with about a medical issue? Did Dr. Oz, in an uncharacteristic fit of anger, punch the Jersey guy? Nope. This man is simply one of the millions of people who have watched Dr. Oz on TV over the years. So why is he suing? Because, the plaintiff claims, he was injured when he tried Dr. Oz' home sleep remedy known as the "Knapsack Heated Rice Footsie." Shake your head in disbelief all you want, but this is far from the most ludicrous lawsuit we have seen in recent years. Who can forget the Michigan woman who filed a lawsuit in 2011 against the producers of the film "Drive"? Her complaint alleged that she was misled by the movie's trailer which promised "Fast and the Furious" type driving, which, alas, the film didn't deliver. And then there was the lawsuit filed last year against the Dallas Cowboys by a woman claiming she sustained burns on her legs. What did she say the Cowboys did wrong? She claims they failed to warn her that sitting for an extended period of time on a black bench outside the Cowboys' stadium on a hot August day could cause burns. More? Well, while in Tennessee, a couple sued Steak 'n Shake after their son ingested a sauce labeled "Mega Death Hot Sauce." It should be noted that the sauce bottle bears the image of a skull engulfed in flames. And that brings us to Dr. Oz. On his April 17, 2012, show, he offered advice about how to sleep better. One suggestion was filling the toe of a pair of socks with uncooked rice. The socks were then to be placed in the microwave and heated until warm. However, Dr. Oz expressly warned viewers, "Don't get it too hot, just warm." The heated footsie was then to be worn for 20 minutes. The reasoning being that the heated socks will cause blood to be diverted to your feet, which in turn will cool the rest of your body. As Dr. Oz explained, "you're going to be able to sleep better because your body has to be cold in order to be sleepy." However, the plaintiff claims that he suffered third degree burns from this remedy. How? Well, he apparently fell asleep with the socks on and didn't realize his feet had been burned until he woke up in the middle of night and tried to walk. The plaintiff also claims that Dr. Oz should have offered a specific warning to avoid using this remedy to people who, like him, have diabetes and hence less feeling in their feet. Let's be honest: These above lawsuits are at best legally questionable and at worst frivolous. But don't blame the person seeking the money. Blame the lawyers. Personal injury lawyers have enticed people for years with their TV commercials and ads on the walls of buses and trains telling us that if you have been wronged, you might be entitled to a big cash award or settlement. This is, of course, followed by the line: "We don't get paid unless you do." So, understandably, people flock to these lawyers with complaints about every imaginable wrong seeking a payday. The lawyers then file lawsuits, hoping for a quick settlement so that they can do as little work as possible before seeing their own payday. Full disclosure: When I practiced law, I represented corporations against lawsuits. Consequently, I'm a bit biased against plaintiffs' lawyers. But it's easy for even a non-corporate lawyer to see that these ridiculous lawsuits give the reputable plaintiffs' attorneys -- and, frankly, all lawyers -- a black eye. It's not that I'm without sympathy for the growing number of lawyers out there struggling to make ends meet. The practice of law has grown increasingly competitive and challenging. I can understand the lure of taking a questionable case that will reap you some media coverage and money. But that's not a good enough reason to do it. Lawyers need to collectively rein in these types of cases. If they don't, the government will do it for them under the guise of "tort reform." The new laws that result would in all likelihood make it harder to file a lawsuit and would limit damages in personal injury cases. And this will make it even more challenging for lawyers to earn a living. Worse, these reforms may prevent some truly injured people from receiving the full compensation they deserve because of caps on damages. As for Dr. Oz, I hope that he doesn't settle quickly out of court. Instead, I hope they fully litigate this case. In all likelihood he will prevail. But even if the plaintiff does ultimately win, it still will have sent a clear message to plaintiffs' attorneys who take these legally questionable cases: If you want money, you are going to have to really earn it.

Dean Obeidallah: Dr. Oz being sued by N.J. man who burned his feet on rice in socks . Obeidallah says Oz's rice sleep aid suggestion gave rapacious lawyers chance to pounce . He says lawyers seeking quick buck take such cases, settle them, give bad name to lawyers . Obeidallah: Frivolous suits boost call for tort reform, hurt lawyers in end, and also injured people .

By . Laura Williamson . Follow @@laura_mail . Sir Bradley Wiggins returns to track racing for the first time in six years, believing he is a stronger athlete after his time on the road. The 2012 Tour de France winner last competed on the track at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. He has returned to the velodrome, but will only race in the 4000m team pursuit with Steven Burke, Ed Clancy and Andy Tennant. It is the only cycling event which is also in the Olympics.

All eyes will be on Sir Bradley Wiggins, who returns to track cycling with his 2012 Tour de France victory still fresh in the mind. Australia are likely to be England’s closest rivals. Did you know? The World Record of 3:51.659 was set by Team GB at the London Olympics in 2012. Ed Clancy and Steven Burke, part of that record-breaking team, ride for England. Sir Bradley, 34, said: ‘I dropped everything else. I thought, “Just focus on the Olympic event rather than try to be too greedy”. It’s the only Olympic event that’s available to me now the individual pursuit has been removed from the programme. So I thought I’d put all my eggs into the one I’m going to try and do for the next two years.’ He has won three Commonwealth silver medals but never a gold. ‘I’m a lot stronger than I used to be in the event, which is one of the things the road has given me,’ said Sir Bradley. ‘The initial thing, having been away for so long, was whether I could still do it, and the signs were really good.’ Sir Bradley is tied with Sir Chris Hoy as Britain’s most decorated Olympian, with seven medals, and will race at a velodrome named after the Scot. ‘I’d be a bit p****d off if I were him,’ said Sir Bradley. ‘They’ve stuck a great big Emirates sign over his name and it doesn’t stand out that it’s the Sir Chris Hoy velodrome. Stick a whopping great statue outside. He won’t complain because he’s far too nice. So I’ll complain for him.’ Up and running: Sir Bradley mounts the bike during a practise session .

By . Chris Greenwood . UPDATED: . 04:10 EST, 14 October 2011 . The investigation will examine how often vulnerable children are being sexually exploited by organised criminal gangs and other groups. (Posed by model) As many as 10,000 children could be the victims of gang-related sexual abuse, it was claimed last night. And the Children’s Commissioner’s Office said many more could be subjected to exploitation. It is launching a two-year inquiry aimed at lifting the lid on the scale of the shocking crimes that reach into all parts of society. The investigation will examine how often vulnerable children are being sexually exploited by organised criminal gangs and other groups. It will study the appalling phenomenon of Asian men grooming white girls for sex and how teenage girl gang members can be forced into prostitution. Experts said there is a lack of reliable  official information about the true scale of sexual abuse across England. Fears have been repeatedly raised that teachers, social workers and police are missing the warning signs when children fall prey to abusers. Deputy Children’s Commissioner Sue Berelowitz, who is leading the inquiry, said estimates suggest up to 10,000 children could be victims. But she said available evidence suggests many more girls and boys of all ages are being abused in much larger numbers. The children's charity Barnardo's say children as young as 10 are being sexually exploited by organised gangs . Mrs Berelowitz said: ‘Right now thousands of children are being horrifically abused by gangs and in groups. Children are being failed up and down the country – in every village, town and city. Accurate data is essential so that government, police, local authorities, schools, the youth justice sector and health professionals can properly identify and protect child victims. Deputy Children's Commissioner Sue Berelowitz will lead the inquiry . ‘As a society we have a collective responsibility to uncover the facts and deal with the grim reality so that children can be properly protected.’ The inquiry was announced after one academic study found much more needs to be done to protect children from sexual exploitation. Experts at the University of Bedfordshire found guidance issued two years ago on safeguarding children is not being followed in three out of four areas. They found that children are coerced into sexual activity by grooming, pressure from a friend who is already a victim, or powerful neighbourhood gang members. Children in local authority care are more than four times as likely to fall victim as those in families. Earlier this year an investigation found one in four men accused of street-grooming vulnerable underage girls for sex is Asian. It followed a series of shocking cases in which white girls were lured into abuse, often with drugs and alcohol. The report was the most detailed assessment yet of the crime but the new inquiry will have a wider remit to include all types of abuse. In January, Barnardo’s said children as young as 10 are being sexually exploited by organised gangs of men. It revealed staff were working with more than 1,000 children  who have been groomed, abused and trafficked for money, and the problem is growing. The Government is due to  publish a renewed action plan later this year detailing how it will respond to concerns about child sexual exploitation. Children’s Commissioner Maggie Atkinson said the inquiry will be ‘a wake-up call for us all’. A young woman who lured two white teenage girls to be raped by three Asian men was jailed for seven years last month. Stephanie Knight (right), who was 17 at the time, told the pair they were going clubbing but instead plied them with vodka and drugs. She forced them to have sex with ‘her boys’ after driving to a derelict terraced house in Accrington, Lancashire. The two 16-year-old victims were subjected to an appalling ordeal in which both were threatened and subjected to sex attacks. Three men, brothers Amjad Hussain, 34, and Shahid Hussain, 37, and their cousin, father-of-four Tanveer Butt, 39, were all convicted of rape. They were jailed indefinitely at Preston Crown Court and must serve at least seven-and-a-half years before they can be considered for release. The case was the latest to feature Pakistani sex attackers who preyed on vulnerable young white girls. Politicians and police have repeatedly clashed over how best to tackle what some  suspect is a potentially incendiary hidden crimewave. Jack Straw, former Home Secretary, has accused some Pakistani men in Britain of seeing white girls as ‘easy meat’ for sexual abuse. Several police forces have investigations currently ongoing into gangs suspected of abusing young girls. Children’s Minister Tim Loughton has suggested that closed Asian communities have turned a blind eye to child sex grooming by gangs of men.

Drew Peterson has been charged with trying to hire someone to kill the prosecutor who led the 2012 trial that resulted in the former police officer being convicted of killing his third wife. State and local prosecutors said on Monday that Peterson is charged with solicitation of murder for hire and solicitation for murder after allegedly trying to hire someone to kill Will County State's Attorney James Glasgow while Peterson was in prison. The charges relate to the time period September 2013 to December 2014 and a preliminary hearing is set for March 3. The 61-year-old is serving a 38-year prison sentence at the Menard Correctional Center in Menard, Illinois, after being convicted in the 2004 drowning death of Kathleen Savio. Scroll down for video . Drew Peterson has been charged with trying to hire someone to kill the prosecutor who led the 2012 trial that resulted in the former police officer being convicted of killing his third wife . An investigation into Savio's death was reopened after Peterson's fourth wife, Stacy, disappeared in 2007. Authorities have said they believe Stacy Peterson is dead and that Drew Peterson is a suspect, but he hasn't been charged in that case. The former cop is being held by the Illinois Department of Corrections where he awaits the appeals court's decision on offering him a new trial over the murder of Savio. The first arguments from his defense lawyers in the appeal are to be held in April at the earliest, according to Radar Online. Peterson was found guilty in 2012 for the murder of his third wife, Kathleen Savio, eight years before. On March 1, 2004, Ms Savio was discovered by a neighbor face down in her dry bathtub, her thick, black hair soaked in blood and a two-inch gash in the back of her head. Peterson is charged with solicitation of murder for hire and solicitation for murder after allegedly trying to hire someone to kill Will County State's Attorney James Glasgow, above, while Peterson was in prison . The death of the 40-year-old aspiring nurse was initially deemed an accident. After Peterson's fourth wife, 23-year-old Stacy Peterson, vanished in 2007, Savio's body was exhumed, re-examined and her death reclassified as a homicide. Peterson had divorced Savio a year before her death. His motive for killing her, prosecutors said, was fear that a pending settlement would wipe him out financially . He is currently serving 38 years for her murder and is not due to be released until May 2050 when he will be well into his nineties. Questions remain about Peterson's fourth wife, Stacy, who has been missing since 2007 and whose body has never been found. Peterson revealed in 2013 that he lived in fear of being killed behind bars. According to a letter to his lawyer at the time, he was not adapting well to his new home. Peterson, a former cop, is serving 38 years for the murder of his third wife, Kathleen Savio (pictured) in 2004 . 'I’m in a cell the size of a broom closet, peeling paint, rusting fixtures, I have no TV or anything and I haven’t been out since I got here,' he wrote to his former attorney Joel Brodsky in one letter. 'Prison is all the nightmarish things that one would think.' Peterson is incarcerated at the Menard Correctional Center in Chester, Illinois where he is being held in protective custody throughout his sentence because of his former profession as a cop. Drew Peterson's 2012 trial was the first in Illinois history where prosecutors built their case on hearsay thanks in part to a new law, dubbed ‘Drew's Law,’ tailored to the case. The hearsay, prosecutors said, let his wives ‘speak from their graves’ through family and friends. The hearsay - any information reported by a witness not based on the witness' direct knowledge - included a friend who said Savio told her Peterson once put a knife to her throat and warned her: ‘I could kill you and make it look like an accident.’ Savio so feared for her life that she kept a knife under her mattress. Stacy Peterson (pictured) was just 19 and 26 years younger than her husband when they married. She  mysteriously vanished in 2007. Her body has never been found . A former co-worker of Peterson's, Jeff Pachter, testified that Peterson offered him $25,000 to hire a hit man to kill Savio, though he never followed through. Peterson was 26 years older than his fourth wife, Stacy, when they married, only eight days after his third divorce was finalized. Four years later, the 23-year-old went missing in 2007. This disappearance prompted Illinois State Police and the FBI to investigate, and they later had Savio's body exhumed, re-examined and her death reclassified as a homicide. When her sister called the police reporting Stacy's disappearance, Peterson said that she had called him several days before and said that she left him for another man. Her car was found at the airport. One of the biggest aspects in the case of her disappearance was the issue of whether or not he disposed of her body in a large blue container, three of which he bought prior to when she went missing. Stacy Peterson's family hoped a conviction in Savio's murder could lead to charges against Drew Peterson in Stacy's disappearance. Stacy's pastor, Neil Schori, testified she told him that her husband got up from bed and left their house in the middle of the night around the time of Savio's death. Before his 2009 arrest, the glib, cocky Peterson seemed to taunt authorities, suggesting a ‘Win a Date With Drew Contest’ and then, after his arrest, ‘Win a Conjugal Visit With Drew Contest.’

Broken: Michael Schumacher is paralysed and has memory and speech problems, another former racing driver has said . Formula One legend Michael Schumacher is paralysed and in a wheelchair, according to former racing driver Philippe Streiff. The 45-year-old seven-time champion cannot speak and has memory problems. Streiff, who is himself wheelchair-bound since a crash in Brazil during pre-season tests in 1989 left him a quadriplegic, was speaking on French radio. The Frenchman, who is a good friend of Schumacher's, said: 'He is getting better but everything is relative. 'It's very difficult. He can't speak. Like me, he is in a wheelchair paralysed. He has memory problems and speech problems.' Streiff, 59, was seen visiting Schumacher when the German was in intensive care in Grenoble Hospital, France. Schumacher, was transferred to Lausanne Hospital, Switzerland, in June and he is now being cared for at his home on the shores of Lake Geneva. Official news on Schumacher, who suffered a freak ski accident in the French Alps on December 29 last year, which left him brain damaged and fighting for his life, have been scant. Schumacher, a very competent skier, was holidaying with family and friends in Meribel, where he owns a chalet. He was skiing with his 14-year-old son on a red piste, which is classed for intermediate skiers. But shortly after 11am he left the piste and skied on to an off-piste area located in between the red run and a blue run, for beginners to intermediates. It was here that he struck a partially-covered rock. He was not skiing fast but he lost control and catapulted 34 feet on to another rock. Scroll down for video . For full interview click here. He smashed his head on the bolder. The force of the collision shattered his helmet. The footage recorded on a camera attached to his helmet was undamaged. The film, which included audio, captured the crash in full horror and was analyzed by police who investigated the accident. Two months later, on February 17, the head of the inquiry Prosecutor Patrick Quincy closed the case. He announced that any criminal wrongdoing had been ruled out. He cleared the ski resort, stating that the piste had been marked correctly and that Schumacher 'deliberately' left the ski run. Full support: Corinna Schumacher, pictured with brain specialist Gerard Saillant, now cares for her husband in their home on the shores of Lake Geneva, Switzerland . Life-changing: Michael Schumacher suffered brain damage after afreak ski accident in Meribel in the French Alps on December 29 last year . Schumacher was airlifted from the slopes minutes after the accident to Moutiers Hospital and was then transferred 80 miles west to CHU Grenoble, a larger hospital that specializes in head injuries. He arrived at 12.40pm and had been placed in an artificial coma. He was immediately operated on to relieve pressure on his brain. Friend: Former racing driver Philippe Streiff made the comments on French radio today . At the end of January it was announced that doctors had begun the process of gradually awakening him from his coma. And then on April 4, his spokeswoman Sabine Kehm revealed that he was showing 'moments of consciousness and awakening'. He had opened his eyes and had interaction, albeit minimal, with his environment. It was the first piece of positive news for months. Ms Kehm has said it was 'very hard' for his loved ones to comprehend how the racing car driver could have been so catastrophically injured in such a 'banal situation'. Today, Ms Kehm said Streiff's comments were 'his opinions' and she therefore did not want to comment. She added: 'He did not have contact with us.' Schumacher's wife Corinna has been a constant presence at his bedside. She and Schumacher met in 1991 on the F1 circuit after she was previously married to racing driver Heinz-Harald Frentzen. She once said: 'Michael's passion for racing is just huge, it would have been impossible without this deep passion; this passion has made him who he is. I got to know him as a racer, and I had previously always had fullest confidence in him.' He has referred to his marriage as 'total harmony', saying: 'We have the same vision of how we want to spend our lives. My wife Corinna and our harmonious family - that is my main force always at play in the background.' With an accumulated wealth estimated to be well over half-a-billion pounds, Schumacher's family is well placed to provide the limitless care that will be needed in the coming years. This will include physiotherapists, to massage his atrophying joints, doctors, nutritionists, nurses and neurological experts.

By . Hayley O'keeffe . PUBLISHED: . 23:19 EST, 15 October 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 05:20 EST, 16 October 2013 . Increasing numbers of people are now claiming for help from foodbanks as more families than ever find themselves suffering from poverty. In one trust alone, more than 350,000 people were given a three-day food package - three times as many as the same time last year. The Trussell Trust has written to the Prime Minister calling on him to look into the 'scandalous' problem of food poverty, warning some foodbank recipients are so poor they have returned produce that needs cooking because they cannot afford the electricity to heat it up. Southwark Foodbank in London, the Trussell Trust has called on David Cameron to launch an inquiry into food poverty . Trussell Trust executive chairman . Chris Mould said: 'We said in April that the increasing numbers of . people turning to foodbanks should be a wake-up call to the nation, but . there has been no policy response and the situation is getting worse. The level of food poverty in the UK is not acceptable. 'It's . scandalous and it is causing deep distress to thousands of people. The . time has come for an official and in-depth inquiry into the causes of . food poverty and the consequent rise in the usage of foodbanks. 'As a nation we need to accept that something is wrong and that we need to act now to stop UK hunger getting worse.' Chancellor George Osborne has said that more people are using foodbanks because they are told about them at jobcentres . Earlier this year, Chancellor George Osborne suggested foodbank use had increased 'because people have been made aware of the foodbank service through local jobcentres'. But the Trust has echoed concerns that some households will have to choose between eating and heating this winter as they struggle to cope with the rising costs of food and energy. It also highlights the impact of welfare reforms that came into force in April, reporting an increase in referrals as a result of the so-called 'bedroom tax'. Mr Mould said: "Problems with welfare are not new, they have existed for years, but the reality is that when welfare provision breaks down, people go hungry. 'We're talking about mums not eating for days because they've been sanctioned for seemingly illogical reasons, or people leaving hospital after a major operation to find that their benefits have been stopped or delayed. 'It's not right that so many more . people are now being referred to foodbanks due to problems with welfare, . especially as much of this is preventable. 'This is not about pointing fingers, it's about finding solutions. That's why we believe an inquiry is now essential.' Chris . Johnes, Oxfam's UK poverty programme director, said: 'These figures lay . bare the shocking scale of destitution, hardship and hunger in the UK. 'It . is completely unacceptable that in the seventh wealthiest nation on the . planet, the number of people turning to foodbanks has tripled. 'Oxfam . welcomes The Trussell Trust's call for the Prime Minister to launch an . urgent inquiry into why people are forced to turn to foodbanks.' Food poverty: Food is packed ready to be distributed to needy families . TUC general secretary Frances O'Grady described the figures as 'shocking'. She said: 'The Chancellor is talking up a recovery - but for who? These new figures show that, despite trying desperately hard to make ends meet, hundreds of thousands of people still can't afford to put food on the table for their families. 'Welfare reforms like the Bedroom Tax have pushed more households into food poverty.' A Government spokesman said: 'We have taken action to help families with the cost of living, including increasing the tax-free personal allowance to £10,000 which will save a typical taxpayer over £700, freezing council tax for five years and freezing fuel duty. 'The Trussell Trust itself says it is opening three new foodbanks every week, so it's not surprising more people are using them. They also agree that awareness has helped to explain their recent growth. 'The benefits system supports millions of people who are on low incomes or unemployed and there is no robust evidence that welfare reforms are linked to increased use of food banks. 'In fact, our welfare reforms will improve the lives of some of the poorest families in our communities with the Universal Credit making three million households better off - the majority of these from the bottom two fifths of the income scale.' Figures published today by food redistribution charity FareShare show the organisation is facing record levels of demand for its services and providing food to more organisations than ever before . FareShare redistribute surplus food up and down the country, feeding more than 50,000 people a day. In the wake of increased demand the charity revealed that Tesco is to provide the equivalent of seven million meals a year to the hundreds of charities across the UK that FareShare works with. The supermarket chain announced it is planning to divert all surplus fresh food from its distribution centres and online grocery centres to support the charity.
More than 350,000 sought help in the past six months . George Osborne has said increase is down to awareness of the service . Some so poor they cannot afford to heat up the donated food .

A schoolgirl who wished for her soldier father to come home for Christmas saw her dream come true when he surprised her at Santa's grotto. Summer North, four, told Father Christmas she missed her father Darren, who has been serving with the 2 Yorkshire Regiment in Cyprus since October. Santa then asked her 'Who is this?' and Corporal North, 27, walked into the grotto to the astonishment of his elder daughter, who flew into his arms. Scroll down for video of the reunion . Best present ever: Four-year-old Summer North has her wish to see her father granted this Christmas . Summer said: 'It was a nice surprise to see my daddy'. The surprise had been arranged by Summer's mother Kerri, 26, who'd kept it a secret from the St Bede Catholic Primary School pupil that her father was coming home for the festive season. Mrs North, 26, who lives in Brotton, Cleveland, and is also mother to the couple's one-year-old daughter, Nevaeh, said: 'I'd seen someone do something similar in America and thought what a lovely idea it was. 'Summer has been going on about her dad coming home for a while now and so I thought it would be great to arrange this.' Mrs North contacted staff at Kirkleatham Museum in Redcar, where she was planning to take her daughters to see Father Christmas, and they were happy to help with the surprise on Saturday. Won't let go: Summer was thrilled when her father appeared as she told Father Christmas how much she missed him . Cpl North, who joined the army at 17 and has done three tours of Afghanistan before being posted to Cyprus, had already seen his younger daughter before surprising Summer in Father Christmas' grotto. He said: 'When Kerri suggested it I thought it was a lovely idea. I do miss them when I am away.' The North family moved to Cyprus in August 2011, but Mrs North and her daughters returned home to the UK earlier this year so that Summer could start school. The family had not been together for weeks before the emotional reunion at the weekend. Mrs North, who is studying sports massage at Redcar and Cleveland College, added: 'It was the best Christmas present Summer could have wished for. 'It is all she really wanted.' Olwyn Peters, of Redcar and Cleveland Council, said: 'The surprise for little Summer is just amazing. 'We're delighted to have been able to help.'

For most, Valentine's Day conjures up images of red roses, chocolates and love poems in cute greetings cards. But for Sara X, who is better known as 'Mozart boob twerking girl,' it is a time to upload a new film of her breasts moving in time to music. Sara X Mills, 27, from LA, made waves online by twerking her breasts in time to Mozart's Eine kleine Nachtmusik last year, and now the former stripper is back in a Valentine's themed clip. Sara X Mills is back flexing her voluptuous breasts along to Ludwig van Beethoven's Für Elise . She wears a tutu skirt and angel wings as well as - of course - a skimpy bralet in the video . In the video, she appears holding a Cupid's bow and arrow and wearing a fancy dress style outfit comprising of tutu skirt and angel wings as well as - of course - a skimpy bra. To the sound of Ludwig van Beethoven's Für Elise, Sara flexes her chest muscles one at a time, so her breast tissue moves up and down. The heavily-tattooed model released a festive version of her party trick back in December, moving her boobs along to the tune of Jingle Bells. She first appears in the video dressed in a faux fut coat, but soon strips off the item of clothing to reveal a candy cane striped bikini top. Sara then executes some synchronized chest movements to the rhythm of Jingle Bells. But the initial clip that first made her famous showed Sara X Mills moving her breasts individually and simultaneously to the sound of Mozart. The video went viral and was viewed more than 26 million times in just one week. Sara's popularity was a double-edged sword though, as the short film gave her instant fame and helped to raise money for charity but it also brought death threats. In an interview after the first clip went global, Sara revealed that she was 'bored and uninspired' at the time she recorded the video. And she revealed that she received a barrage of abuse from internet trolls after the clip went global in October. As Sara flexes her pec muscles one at a time her breast tissue moves up and down making, her boobs look like they're jiggling all on their own. Her talent has made her a global sensation online . She told Jezebel at the time: 'I know I've definitely been called a w**** and a s*** and an attention w**** far more times than I ever was when I was actually in an adult industry. 'Mostly the people who have negative things to say about my character, or my presumed profession, past profession, and life decisions don't get that the video is meant to be humorous, and operate under the assumption that I just wanted to show the world my boobs.' Sara said that she had found the attention her trick had brought disconcerting and that she wouldn't feel too sad when her time in the spotlight passed. However, she must have had a change of heart since making those statements as she uploaded the Christmas clip to YouTube afterwards, which received more than one million views in a day. And she has now  presented a Valentine's February treat, which currently has more than 600,000 views. Historians will applaud her choice of theme tune for the love-themed day, as Beethoven reportedly wrote the piece for a woman he proposed to, but who ended up marrying an Austrian nobleman instead.

Greece will hold a snap general election late January after MPs today failed to vote for a new president sparking fears of a new eurozone crisis. Greek prime minister Antonis Samaras had brought forward the presidential vote in a move he hoped would avoid a general election. But his gamble has backfired spectacularly with the government's candidate Stavros Dimas failing to win a majority after three rounds of voting. Greek Prime Minister Antonis Samaras called a presidential vote in a bid to avoid a general election but his candidate failed to poll a majority meaning an election will be held early next year . Under Greek law, a parliamentary election must now be called, leaving financial markets and Greece's European Union partners facing weeks of uncertainty that could undermine fragile signs of economic recovery and derail its public finances. It opens the door for the radical left-wing Syriza party which is currently ahead in the opinion polls on promises to to tear up Greece's bailout agreement with the EU, abandon austerity and renationalise key parts of the economy. Investors sold off Greek stocks Monday, with the Athens stock exchange's benchmark general index losing 7.3 percent in midday trading, after falling as much as 11.3 per cent just after the vote. In two previous ballots, Dimas, 73, a conservative former minister and European environmental commissioner, won 160 and 168 votes, respectively. He needed at least 180 votes to win today but again won only 168. Radical policies: Syriza party leader, Alexis Tsipras has pledged to re-nationalise parts of the economy . Mr Samaras announced the election will be held on January 25. He gave a televised address just after the presidential vote, saying: 'The country has no time to waste. 'I am here to guarantee that the country continues on a safe course ... so that the sacrifices made and the (economic) recovery are not endangered.' But Syriza leader Alexis Tsipras said the vote marked a 'historic day for Greek democracy'. 'When the majority of the people is determined to end the policies of the bailout agreements and austerity, then lawmakers can do nothing else than respond to their duty to keep in line with the will of the people. 'Today Mr Samaras's government, which for two and a half years plundered our society and had already decided and committed to take new measures, belongs to the past. With the will of our people, in a few days, the austerity agreements will also belong to the past.' 'They will be remembered by everyone, especially history.' Syriza, and its charismatic leader Alexis Tsipras triumphed at the European Parliament elections in May and are the current favourites to win a General election. Tsipras has promised to abandon the tough austerity measures that Greece has endured for the past two years, and renationlise parts of the economy, restoring wages and re-employing sacked public sector workers. A poll on Saturday by the Alco institute showed Syriza leading the government's New Democracy party by 3.3 points, a slightly narrower lead than in the previous poll. It put support for Syriza at 28.3 percent and for New Democracy at 25 percent. Greece has been making a slow and painful recovery thanks to record tourist receipts and the deficit has come down faster than in many other crisis hit countries from 15 per cent in 2009 to an expected three per cent in 2014. But a Syriza election win would likely mean Greece returning to policies of unsustainable borrowing and could have a disastrous knock-on effect for the eurozone. Mr Tsipras said he had growing support in other countries struggling in the crisis. 'In Europe, sentiment is changing. Everyone is getting used to the idea that Syriza will be the government and that new negotiations will begin,' he wrote in his party newspaper on Sunday. The real prospect of a radical socialist party coming to power in Greece is terrifying many within the EU and has a damaging effect on markets. Greek stocks plunged at the opening on Monday ahead of a final parliamentary vote to choose a new president and avert a snap election that could bring a radical leftwing party to power. The Athens bourse sank 5.24 percent to 808.46 points shortly before the 1000 GMT vote. Ugly scenes: Petrol bombs are hurled at police during an anti-austerity protest in central Athens in 2012 . In 2012 Greece was awarded €240million in bailouts on the condition in return for accepting tough austerity measures which saw thousands of government workers made redundant and the minimum wage slashed by 22 per cent. The move provoked widespread dissent with days of rioting which saw protesters clashing with police and hundreds of buildings being burnt down. Spyros Lykoudis, an independent who voted with the government in the second round before Christmas, said he was not optimistic that the parties would overcome their differences. 'Unless there is a surprise, unless a party changes its stance, I don't expect parliament to elect a president tomorrow given the current circumstances. 'Nothing can be ruled out, but parties are in any case preparing for elections.' Samaras, who spent much of Sunday following the dramatic rescue of hundreds of passengers from a burning ferry, has appealed to parliament to support his nominee. But having offered a deal to bring forward elections scheduled for mid 2016 to the end of next year, he ruled out new concessions to the opposition parties and independents expected to hold the key to the result.

New evidence in the Jodi Arias trial shows that she may have been trying to influence the testimony of her friend by slipping out coded messages while she was in jail for her ex-boyfriend's murder. The Phoenix courtroom was shown a picture of the bottom of a page of one of the magazines that she handed a visitor who it is thought was meant to pass it along to another person who was going to testify on Arias' behalf. The picture shows numbers written at the bottom of a page in her copy of Star Magazine, that were intended to match messages that she had written on the corresponding page numbers from the second magazine, Digital Photo Pro. 'You f***ed up what you told my attorney the next day / directly contradicts what I've been saying for over a year / get down here ASAP and see me before you talk to them again and before / you testify so / we can fix this / interview was excellent! Must talk ASAP!' the message read when pieced together. Scroll down for video . Grilling: Jodi Arias, pictured on the stand on Monday, gave testimony for the tenth day where she was harshly questioned by the prosecution over her various versions of events . The evidence is intended to show that . she tried to manipulate one of the few people who could theoretically . corroborate her story about being abused by Alexander. The date of the magazine incident and . the interviews scheduled around that time point to the prospect of the . recipient being her friend and former boyfriend Matt McCartney. When presented with the magazine codes on Thursday, Arias denied trying to sway McCartney. 'You tried to get someone to lie at that hearing, didn't you?' prosecutor Juan Martinez said. 'No, she responded. Her trust and the veracity of McCartney's knowledge was brought up again when the trial picked back up on Monday. His name was mentioned when she said that she showed bruises that she sustained from one of her fights with Alexander. 'I saw (McCartney) a few days later and he called me out on all the bruises that were on me,' she said in court. One-on-one: Prosecutor Juan Martinez (left) aggressively questioned Jodi Arias (right) last Thursday as cross-examination began . After going back and forth with . Martinez over the specific timing and driving directions that she went . through during this supposed trip- when she traveled from Alexander's . house in Mesa, Arizona to McCartney's house in Seaside, California, it . was eventually determined that he would not have been able to see the . bruising. Though the prosecutor asserts that it . was because of the timeline of the trip, she said that she also applied . multiple coats of makeup to avoid any questioning. The 32-year-old eventually admitted . that there is no physical evidence, documentary or anecdotal evidence . that Alexander hurt her. Martinez also questioned her motive in . moving to Mesa after she and Arias had officially broken up. She went . on to say that Alexander was very 'persuasive' and convinced her to . still move even though they were no longer together. Arias' grueling tenth day on the stand was part of criminal proceedings that have been going on since early January. Arias, 32, lost a bid last week aimed . at getting a reprieve from a potential death sentence if convicted of . first-degree murder after the Arizona Supreme Court swiftly denied her . motion that claimed a detective committed perjury in the case. Her . attorneys have filed multiple motions for mistrials, all of which have . been denied. Negotiations: The prosecution and defense have fought bitter battles over evidence and approached the judge's bench on several occasions on Monday . Earlier in Monday's testimony, Arias . was grilled about her decision to send Alexander's grieving grandmother . flowers following his murder. The court viewed a tape of Arias' 48 . Hours interview where she said that she had sent the flowers to . Alexander's grandmother 'because iris was one of Travis' 'favorite baby . names'. She went on to send an 18-page note to his siblings. In the note, she said that they . 'deserved to know' who killed their brother by shooting him and stabbing . him 27 times. She left out any mention of her involvement- which she . has now admitted to in court. The prosecutor asked why she lied to . Detective Flores when she denied being in Arizona on June 4, 2008. Arias . said she had lied because she was ashamed of things that she and . Alexander had done in the past that she wanted to keep secret. Martinez kept at Arias over her . motives for lying. He picked apart her often contradictory responses and . questioned her memory of events, even opening his examination on the . tenth day of the trial by asking: 'Ma'am, you have a problem with . telling the truth, don't you?' The lawyer then picked apart each of the versions of events that Arias had told to friends following Mr Alexander's murder. Previous stories: Jodi Arias sat down for multiple interviews with 48 Hours Mystery shortly after being arrested but her version of event has changed dramatically since then . Her former self: The clips have been played for the court and Arias had to answer for her previous responses . Smiling: Arias, pictured in her mugshot center, was asked why she chose to smile in her booking photo and in the 48 Hours interview she said it was because she thought it is what Alexander would have done . Arias was grilled on her conflicting . testimony on Monday where she both appeared to say that she knew and . didn't know Alexander was dead when she left his Mesa home on June 4. She told the jury that her 'mind . wasn't right' as to why she had could not remember clearly the events or . why she had been covered in blood when she drove from Arizona to Utah . to visit a romantic interest, Ryan Burns. Martinez said: 'And to continue this litany of lies, it isn't restricted to Utah. You also lied to people in Arizona.' She responded: 'I lied to everyone.' When Arias was told by friend Daniel . Freeman that her former boyfriend had been murdered, she pretended she . knew nothing about it. She then called a spiritual adviser . Bishop Leighton to find out what he knew about Alexander's death, a move . that Martinez claimed was 'to see if someone was on to you'. The murder suspect then added that she could not remember much from that day of June 4. Referring to the fateful day at . Alexander's house Martinez asked: 'You remembered the confrontation, you . remembered that you didn't call 911, so why did you need to know . second-hand knowledge? Last week, prosecutor Martinez . hammered Arias with intense questioning about her inability to recall . crucial details in the case, yet noted it was puzzling that she can . remember 'what kind of coffee you bought at Starbucks sometime back in . 2008'. Despondent: It was another day under close scrutiny for the murder suspect in the Arizona courtroom . Damning words: Pages for Arias' own diary were used by the prosecution to contradict claims that Alexander had been physically violent towards her during their relationship . Arias smirked at times while Martinez . stammered in frustration, and the judge admonished both to stop talking . over each other as the questioning grew heated and the two traded barbs. Arias first told authorities she knew . nothing about Alexander's death, then later blamed it on masked . intruders before eventually settling on self-defense. She said she was scared of being . arrested, had been contemplating suicide and didn't want to sully . Alexander's name with accounts of his violent behavior and lurid details . of their sexual relationship, given his public persona as a devout . Mormon who was saving himself for marriage. Of the day she killed Alexander, Arias . says she remembers him in a rage, body slamming her and chasing her . around his home. She said she grabbed a gun from his closet, and fired . it as they tussled, but didn't know if she hit him. Doomed: Jodi Arias is accused of murdering her on-off lover Travis Alexander which she claims was in self-defense while the prosecution says she flew into a jealous rage . She had no explanation for the 27 stab . and slash wounds he suffered, or his slit throat, or how his body ended . up stuffed in his shower. According to court records, however, . she previously told police before her trial began that Alexander was . unconscious after she shot him, but then 'crawled around and was . stabbed'. She says she remembers putting a knife . in the dishwasher and disposing of the gun in the desert as she drove . from Arizona on her way to Utah. She immediately began planning an . alibi. Arias' grandparents reported a .25 . caliber handgun stolen from their Northern California house about a week . before the killing - the same caliber used to shoot Alexander - but . Arias claims to know nothing about the burglary. She says she brought no . weapons to Alexander's home on the day she killed him, undercutting the . prosecution's theory of premeditation.
Tried to pass messages along to her friend and former flame Matt McCartney after he 'f***** up' by telling investigators a statement that contradicted her claims . Prosecutor Juan Martinez asked why Arias posted Travis Alexander's siblings an 18-page letter following his death saying that they 'deserved to know' who killed him, but didn't say that she was the one who killed him . During cross-examination in the Phoenix courtroom, Martinez asks: 'Can you imagine how much it must have hurt Mr Alexander when you stuck that knife right into his chest?'

By . Steph Cockroft . A pet owner was forced to watch as a neighbour's dog burst through her front door and savaged her tiny pet to death. Julie Davies, 55, was in the kitchen cooking dinner at her flat in Highworth, Wiltshire, when the vicious Rottweiler-Bullmastiff cross burst into the family home through the open door. It lunged at Ms Davies' Yorkshire Terrier Maltese cross Pepe - which was cowering under the kitchen table - and killed it instantly. Yorkshire Terrier Maltese cross Pepe, pictured above, was mauled to death in its own flat by a neighbour's dog in Highworth, Wiltshire . Ms Davies and her partner Swithin Cardoso, 40, managed to grapple the dog out of the ground floor flat, but it remained in the car park at the block of flats until police arrived. But Ms Davies warned it could have been far . more serious as her nine-month-old granddaughter arrived at the flat just 10 minutes . after the attack. She said: 'It was terrifying. It was just fear. You knew straight away. I froze in fear because you could just see his whole behaviour and his head was going from side to side. 'My little dog ran from the living room just because he heard the door bang. He was under the kitchen table and this dog just lunged. 'He threw himself at my dog. I knew within seconds our dog was dead. It was absolutely horrendous.' The incident happened around 8pm on Tuesday as Ms Davies cooked dinner. Marie Burns, 33, the daughter of Julie Davies, is pictured here with Ms Davies' dog Missy - who was not hurt in the attack - and her children Mia, left, Francesca, second from right and Tom Davies, . right. Ms Burns said Mia arrived at the flat just ten minutes later and . could have been the victim . Ms Davies had left the kitchen door open to allow a breeze through her flat on . one of the hottest days of the year. The dog then ran up . the external stairs and pounced at Pepe, a family pet for more than six years. Her partner Swithin, who is 6ft 5ins tall, wrestled with the dog, before forcing it back outside. The Rottweiler-Bullmastiff cross belonged to a neighbour and has now . been put down by the owner. No charges have been brought by police (file . pic) The dog has now been put down by the owners, police say. Ms Davies said: 'It infuriates me because if it had been 10 minutes later my granddaughter would have been here, crawling around. It doesn’t even bear thinking about.' Marie Burns, 33, Ms Davies' daughter and mother to her granddaughter Mia, said: 'The owner of the dog arrived 15 minutes later, before the police. 'He didn’t seem to care or show any remorse. He just said it was his girlfriend’s dog and it had nothing to do with him. 'When we told him our dog had been killed, all he could say was "It’s only a dog". He just kept saying it’s not his problem.' Police were unable to take any action, but a spokesman for Wiltshire Police said: 'Police officers have no power to seize dogs unless they witness an attack themselves or if the animal is a banned breed. 'The owners of the dog involved have taken the decision to put the animal down. 'The investigation is continuing to ascertain the circumstances around the incident and any witnesses should contact 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111, where information can be left anonymously.'

By . Mail On Sunday Reporter . After being criticised for her  ‘shrill’ voice, Margaret Thatcher, encouraged by actor Laurence Olivier, enlisted a vocal coach to help soften her speaking tone. She went on to win the 1979 General Election – and a study from British Columbia University hints at one reason why. According to researchers, women prefer softer ‘breathier’ voices to ‘creaky’ or sharp voices – associating the former with  youth and vitality. To be preferred: Women prefer Marilyn Monroe's softer, husky voice over Kim Kardashian's 'creaky' tones . Female participants in the study were played tapes of Marilyn Monroe and Kim Kardashian, and the majority said they preferred Monroe. The creakier Kardashian tones are associated with health issues such as smoking or a cold. Men preferred larger-sounding voices, such as that of Barry White. The findings were published in the journal Plos One. Best known to TV viewers as the  Oxo . Mum, actress Lynda Bellingham has given her support to a nutritional . supplement aimed at helping stroke and dementia patients. The powder was . created by aromatherapist Barbara Hobbs, 68, who suffered a stroke 12 . years ago. Now recovered, . Barbara worked with a biochemist to create Neurocare 21, which contains . extracts of vegetables she keeps in her garden. She credits the . supplement with returning her to health. Cooking up a cure: Lynda Bellingham, pictured in the Oxo commercial, credits nutritional supplement Neurocare 21 with helping her recover from a stroke . Lynda – pictured with her screen husband from the Oxo ads – met Barbara when she handed her an Adult Achievement Award from the Stroke Association in 2007. Lynda was so impressed with Barbara’s work that she and husband Michael decided to invest in what eventually became Neurocare. Lynda, 65, says: ‘We agreed to provide the start-up costs and use my profile to endorse the product. 'It took three years to get licensed but now we’ve launched on the internet. It is not a miracle cure but it is a fantastic natural product to assist those suffering with stroke symptoms or dementia.’ Pecnominated: Fitness trainer Shaun Stafford . The Neknominate craze, where participants film themselves binge-drinking, has sparked a potentially dangerous spin-off. Personal trainers and ordinary gym-goers are attempting the Pecnominate challenge, in which they have one minute to lift their own body weight as many times as possible. The exercises take the form of a bench press, where the user lies flat and pushes a barbell containing the specified weight away from their body. This targets the pectoral, or chest, muscles – hence the name of the fad. Videos are being uploaded on websites such as YouTube. Celebrity trainer Shaun Stafford, who helped Made In Chelsea’s Spencer Matthews shed weight recently, joined the challenge. But lifting extreme weights carries a high risk of serious injury, as orthopaedic surgeon Adrian Wilson explains: ‘Losing control of the bar and dropping the weight on to your body could lead to a major injury  to the ribs or ripping of the chest tendons. 'It takes significant time to recover from these.’ A self-care ‘toolkit’ aimed at helping chronic pain sufferers cope better has been launched by the NHS. The tips on paintoolkit.org are also available as a smartphone app and offer advice to eight million Britons who are in persistent pain due to conditions such as arthritis and fibromyalgia. For children suffering from kidney stones a new, less invasive procedure has been introduced at Southampton General Hospital. A . tiny tube is inserted into the patient’s side to  ‘laser away’ the hard . deposits that can cause agony. Southampton is the only hospital outside . London using this method, called Ultra-Mini PCNL. The technique results in less bleeding and less pain relief is . required. Patients can be discharged after one night, instead of three.

Los Angeles (CNN) -- Los Angeles Clippers co-owner Shelly Sterling asked a Los Angeles probate court Wednesday to uphold her negotiated sale of the team for $2 billion despite her husband's objections, her attorney said. The probate court agreed to hold a four-day trial on the issue, beginning July 7. Sterling's legal maneuver comes as three physicians say her estranged husband, Donald, 80, is mentally incapacitated, said her attorney, Pierce O'Donnell. Court papers say her husband shows early Alzheimer's or other brain disease. Donald Sterling, the team's other co-owner, doesn't want to sell the team as the National Basketball Association demands; this week he called the league "despicable monsters" and "a band of hypocrites and bullies." O'Donnell said his client sought an expedited hearing "given the fact this is a very important transaction," he said. "It's unfortunate. Mrs. Sterling regrets having to go to court and publicly air this problem. But Mr. Sterling's conduct in reneging on the sale requires her to do so," O'Donnell said. Joining Sterling and O'Donnell at the courthouse Wednesday was the attorney for former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer, with whom Shelly Sterling has reached an agreement to sell the franchise for a record $2 billion. Donald Sterling opposes a sale of the team and says he gave his wife a purported letter only to negotiate with a buyer, not to formally sell the team, his attorney said Wednesday. "Bottom line, Donald Sterling does not want to sell the team," attorney Bobby Samini said. Technically, a family trust owns the Clippers. But O'Donnell said that three physicians have certified that Donald Sterling lacks the mental capacity to function as a trustee of the complex trust. "The trust agreement provides that if two qualified physicians certify that he's mentally incapacitated, he's removed. We also have a third distinguished doctor who's an expert in this field, mental capacity, who has reviewed the evidence, and supports the other doctors and agrees on that conclusion. So there's three doctors. We only need two," O'Donnell said. "This is a complex business. You have a $2 billion basketball team. You have massive amount of 150 real estate holdings, and it requires a person to run the business who is competent, and the doctor -- three doctors -- have said that he lacks the mental capacity," O'Donnell said. Doctors' findings . Donald Sterling recently underwent a CT scan and a PET scan of his brain, according to Shelly Sterling's court filings. Dr. Meril S. Platzer, a California neurologist, examined Donald Sterling on May 19 and found he "is suffering from cognitive impairment secondary to primary dementia Alzheimer's disease," court papers said. The PET scan on May 16 providing findings "consistent with a neurodementia of the Alzheimer's type," Platzer said in his certification of Donald Sterling's incapacity. Donald Sterling was unable to spell "world" backward, was unaware of the season of the year and initially had difficulty drawing a clock, Platzer said in court papers. Dr. James Edward Spar, a specialist in geriatric psychiatry who examined Donald Sterling on May 22, said Sterling suffers "mild global cognitive impairment" and "the overall picture is consistent with early Alzheimer's disease, but could reflect other forms of brain disease," court papers said. Platzer said in a May 29 certification that Donald Sterling has "an impairment of his level of attention, information processing, short term memory impairment and ability to modulate mood, emotional liability, and is at risk of making potentially serious errors of judgment," court papers said. Spar said in May 27 letter that Donald Sterling "is substantially unable to manage his finances and resist fraud and undue influence, and is no longer competent to act as trustee of his trust," court documents said. Another specialist in geriatric psychiatry, Dr. Stephen L. Read, "confirmed the methodology and conclusions of Drs. Platzer and Spar," court papers said. "I agree that the history and the findings are highly suspect as representing the slow emergence of progressive dementia, and specifically Alzheimer's disease," Read said in documents filed in court. "In addition, the findings described are fully consistent with the general loss of brain tissue and, more specifically, with the pattern of impaired brain functions demonstrated by the PET scan of May 16, 2014." Under the trust agreement, if Donald Sterling became mentally incapacitated, he would be removed as a trustee, O'Donnell said. Donald Sterling is mentally sound, one of his lawyers, Maxwell Blecher, told CNN on Tuesday. "It strikes me as totally incredible to argue that this man -- I talk to him every day -- is incapable of making decisions and is mentally incompetent," Blecher said on Tuesday afternoon. "And I don't believe any court is going to make a finding to the contrary." Adam Streisand, the attorney for Ballmer, said his client was hoping for a speedy court date. "Mr. Ballmer has insisted, as a provision of this deal, Shelly Sterling get approval from the court that she has the authority as the sole trustee based upon the removal of Mr. Sterling as a trustee. So we are here because Mr. Ballmer is insisting that the court bless the transaction," Streisand said. "If it does not go forward, the consequences are dire," Streisand said. "Mr. Ballmer is not going to stick around for years, for this to wind through the courts. And the NBA has made it very clear that it will take over the team, and that is a consequence that is not going to benefit the Sterling family." September deadline . Donald Sterling initially vowed to fight the sale and filed a lawsuit against the NBA, then said he was going along with the sale -- until Monday, when he again pulled his support. "From the onset, I did not want to sell the Los Angeles Clippers. I have worked for 33 years to build the team," Donald Sterling said. In Shelly Sterling's court filings, NBA general counsel Richard W. Buchanan said if the Sterlings don't sell the team by September 15, the league may sell the team or renew termination proceedings against the Clippers or both. In one document, Shelly Sterling said her husband "has gone back and forth between opposing the sale and supporting the sale" of the team since May 29. "To date, I have not received Donald's written consent to the sale of the Clippers to (Ballmer) for $2 billion," Shelly Sterling said in court papers. Sterling has been embroiled in controversy since a recording of a conversation with his friend V. Stiviano surfaced. The recording included a series of racist comments. Sterling's comments, first posted on TMZ, sparked outrage among NBA players, executives and fans. The commissioner fined Sterling $2.5 million and banned him for life from the NBA. In a statement Tuesday, Sterling said he has apologized for the remarks and his apology is sincere. He also made inflammatory comments to CNN's "Anderson Cooper 360" about African-Americans, which the NBA had planned to use as part of its evidence against him in an owners' meeting where a vote would be taken on whether to terminate his ownership rights. The meeting was canceled. Sterling's lawsuit makes clear that he believes the NBA has no right to force such a sale, and the league was wrong in banning him for life and fining him. In addition to damages, the lawsuit seeks a restraining order. Sterling says NBA officials are 'bullies,' 'hypocrites,' 'monsters' NBA commissioner: Sterling saga not over yet .

Iran will not return an unmanned American stealth plane that it says it has, one of Iran's top generals said, according to the semi-official Fars news agency on Sunday. "No nation welcomes other countries' spy drones in its territory, and no one sends back the spying equipment and its information back to the country of origin," said Gen. Hossein Salami, deputy commander of the Armed Forces. "It makes no difference where this drone originated and which group or country sent it to invade our air space," Salami said. "This was an act of invasion and belligerence." American officials have not confirmed that the drone in a video released Thursday is a U.S. aircraft, but Pentagon spokesman George Little has said that an American drone is missing and had not been recovered as of Thursday. But two U.S. officials confirmed to CNN on Tuesday that the missing drone was part of a CIA reconnaissance mission that involved both the intelligence community and military personnel stationed in Afghanistan. Iran's official Iran Republic News Agency said the country's armed forces had downed the drone near Kashmar, some 225 kilometers (140 miles) from the border with Afghanistan on December 4. Salami said downing the plane was "very valuable for us" and "a victory for us and a defeat for our enemies," IRNA reported. He also claimed Iran had downed other drones earlier but had not announced those instances because they were not as important. Iranian TV aired images Thursday of what it says is the drone, an apparently intact RQ-170 drone propped on a pedestal and triumphantly displayed. There was disagreement among Pentagon officials about whether the drone in the video was real. Military and intelligence officials were analyzing the Iran television footage. One U.S. official said the United States can't be certain it's the real stealth drone, because U.S. personnel don't have access to it. But he added there's no reason to think it's a fake. However, a second senior U.S. military official said that a big question is to how the drone could have remained virtually intact given the high altitude it is believed to have crashed from. The condition of the drone in the video suggests it was not shot down but suffered a system failure, aviation analyst Bill Sweetman said. There are no burn marks from a fire, no holes and no outward damage. Sweetman noticed a dent along the leading edge but doesn't know what that means. "It's fairly clear here from the pictures that the outer wings have been separated. The question is, did that happen in the accident or (did they take) them off to move the aircraft?" Sweetman asked. The CIA and the Pentagon would not comment on the video shown Thursday. A senior U.S. official with direct access to the assessment about what happened to the unmanned aircraft said it was tasked to fly over western Afghanistan and look for insurgent activity, with no directive either to fly into Iran or spy on Iran from Afghan airspace. A U.S. satellite quickly pinpointed the downed drone, which apparently sustained significant damage, the senior official said. Iran's U.N. ambassador said in a letter Thursday that the drone flew 250 kilometers (150 miles) into Iranian territory "to the northern region of the city of Tabas." The letter from Ambasador Mohammad Khazaee to U.N. Secretary-Genera Ban Ki-moon and the heads of the General Assembly and Security Council said the drone "faced prompt and forceful action" by the armed forces. "My government emphasizes that this blatant and unprovoked air violation by the United States government is tantamount to an act of hostility against the Islamic Republic of Iran in clear contravention of international law, in particular, the basic tenets of the United Nations Charter," Khazaee's letter said. He called for U.N. condemnation of U.S. "acts of aggression," as well as "clear and effective measures to be taken to put an end to these dangerous and unlawful acts in line with the United Nations' responsibilities to maintain international and regional peace and security."

By . Alex Ward . PUBLISHED: . 15:04 EST, 29 November 2012 . | . UPDATED: . 15:04 EST, 29 November 2012 . A convicted killer, who stabbed a man 40 times in a jealous rage, has been given a job at a hospital. Unions have raised concerns over the employment of Robert Bage at the University Hospital of North Durham after it was revealed his employers had no idea about his violent past. Bage, originally from the Durham area, stabbed Andrew Stanyer in 1991 after becoming jealous of the man’s relationship with his former partner and was jailed for life. No idea of conviction: Robert Bage was jailed for life but after he was released on licence he got a job at the University Hospital of North Durham (pictured) while employers were unaware of his violent past . Following his release from prison on licence he was employed by the County Durham and Darlington NHS Trust hospital in the hospital kitchens, it is believed. In a statement from Balfour Beatty Workplace (BBW), the trust’s Private Finance Initiative partner, said that Bage worked in a ‘non-patient facing role’ but that they were not made aware of his previous convictions during the employment process. The statement read: ‘Once this matter was brought to the attention of BBW, the employee was suspended and an investigation commenced immediately. ‘Mr Bage no longer works with BBW.’ It is believed that he has not worked at the hospital for at least two months. Public service trade union Unison plan to hold talks with staff at the hospital after details of Bage’s employment emerged. Frenzied attack: Bage hid in his former partner's loft in Stoke (pictured) before stabbing Andrew Stanyer 40 times with a kitchen knife . Sheila Wilson, a regional organiser for Unison, said: ‘We are extremely concerned that the recruitment process has allowed this to happen.’ Bage hid in the loft of his former partner’s home in Stoke, Staffordshire before stabbing Mr Stanyer in a frenzied attack, starting when his victim was asleep. Bage was due to be released on licence in March 2005 and was expected to live in the North East. His current whereabouts are unknown. At the time, Mr Stanyer’s brother, Alan, said a life sentence should mean Bage would never be released. Sorry we are unable to accept comments for legal reasons.

By . Tom Worden . A neighbour heard model Cheryl Maddison screaming as she was stabbed and raped in her Majorca flat but failed to call police. Young mother Laura Pamela told a court she heard Cheryl's 'anguished' cries but was convinced it was 'just another fight' involving a British couple. Miss Maddison, 25, was knifed repeatedly in the neck, throat and back after being attacked as she returned home from work in a bar in Magaluf. Injuries: Cheryl Maddison, 25, was left for dead by her attacker in Magaluf. Neighbour Laura Pamela said she heard the cries but assumed they were from an arguing couple . Brave: Miss Maddison came face-to-face with her attacker Mohamed Fadel El Anssari as he admitted the crime in court in the Majorcan capital Palma . Moroccan waiter Mohamed Fadel el . Anssari, 31, is alleged to have raped her and stabbed her with a . seven-inch kitchen knife before leaving her for dead in May 2008. Miss Pamela told the court that she was woken up at about 4am and could hear 'fighting and shouting in English'. She added: 'I heard a woman screaming. It sounded like a couple having a fight. I might have heard a glass smash. 'My husband said 'It sounds as if something really bad is happening'. Miss Pamela said that the female . voice she could hear 'sounded anguished' but after contemplating calling . the police she decided 'it was just another fight'. 'The flat is always rented by British holidaymakers and they always have lots of parties, get drunk and have fights,' she said. Confessed: In stark contrast to Miss Maddison's confident arrival, Mohamed Fadel El Anssari, a 31 year-old waiter from Morocco, sat in the dock with his head buried in his hands throughout . Taken away: El Anssari covers his face as he leaves the court in Palma . Miss Maddison, who had moved to the island just six days earlier aged 21, pretended to be dead until her attacker fled. She then managed to crawl out into the street before collapsing in a pool of blood. The victim, from Houghton Le Spring, . County Durham, sat in the public gallery to watch the second day of the . trial with her boyfriend Kaine MacDonald, 21. She sat just yards behind her alleged attacker, who was handcuffed in court guarded by two uniformed police officers. Miss Maddison, who has waived her right . to anonymity, spent two years having therapy and suffered regular panic . attacks following the horrific ordeal. She gave evidence for 70 minutes from behind a screen on Tuesday. Cheryl Maddison leaves the court in Palma hand in hand with boyfriend Kain MacDonald after giving evidence . Bandaged wound: Cheryl Maddison, pictured aged 21 in 2008, said she only realised he had stabbed her in the chest when she came round and stood up to find she had been lying in a large pool of blood . Forensic doctor Julio Lopez, who examined her during her two-week stay in hospital, told the Provincial Court in Palmacourt she was lucky to survive the attack. He said: 'Her wounds could have been fatal if she had not received urgent medical attention.' Police found the attacker's bloodstained top dumped in a rubbish bin near Cheryl's flat. They launched a huge manhunt but shelved the investigation the following summer after failing to make a breakthrough. Investigations were reopened when a second British woman suffered a similar attack in Magaluf in 2010. Fadel, a cocaine addict, was arrested in July 2011 following a lengthy undercover police operation. DNA found on a cigarette he threw away in the street matched that found on the bedsheets at Cheryl's apartment. It also matched traces of genetic material found on the bloodied shirt discarded near the scene of the crime, the court heard. Hiding: El Anssari avoids showing his face to photographers outside court . Holiday isle: Magaluf is the number one destination for British package tour holidaymakers . Tests proved beyond any doubt the DNA . on the shirt and bedsheets belonged to Fadel, a Civil Guard detective . told the panel of three judges. Fadel's former boss, Jason Brown, . told the court the Moroccan had suddenly asked for some time off to . travel to Tenerife around the time of the attack. Mr Brown, who employed Fadel as a . waiter at Tom Brown's bar in Magaluf, said: 'We couldn't believe it when . he was arrested. He was known as just a normal person, a worker.' The court heard Fadel had been . diagnosed as suffering from psychotic and manic episodes by a Moroccan . doctor two months before the attack and was prescribed mood-stabilising . drugs. But Spanish doctors who examined him in jail after his arrest said he did not show signs of suffering from mental illness. Dr Julio Lopez told the court: 'He did not require any treatment in prison. There were no signs of a disorder.' Prosectors want Fadel jailed for 23 . year - 12 for attempted murder and 11 for rape. The court has heard he . confessed to police after his arrest, telling detectives: 'I am an evil . man'. He refused to answer questions about the attack in court and his defence lawyer is calling for his acquittal. The trial is expected to end on Thursday and the judges will return their verdict in a written ruling at a later date. Sorry we are not currently accepting comments on this article.

By . Tara Brady . PUBLISHED: . 10:28 EST, 22 October 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 10:43 EST, 22 October 2013 . A crack-smoking homeless man accused of trying to have sex with a train seat has been acquitted of indecent exposure. Leslie Bailey, 28, was arrested on May 8, in San Fransisco, after a train operator caught him on his knees in the first carriage thrusting his pelvis against a seat. Bailey then began gyrating on his stomach before he flipped over and began masturbating while having a toke on his crack pipe. Leslie Bailey was caught on a train in San Fransisco on his knees having sex with a train seat (file picture) When he eventually realised he had been caught, he apologised to the operator for smoking but his genitals were still hanging out from underneath his shirt. The incident happened on a Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) train travelling from Dublin-Pleasanton. Bailey was arrested by police and his crack pipe was confiscated. Bailey's attorney, Emily Dahm, said Baily had been taking anti-psychotic medication and binging on crack cocaine. The incident happened on a Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) train travelling from Dublin-Pleasanton . She argued that he was trying to have a private moment on the nearly empty carriage and that he was not trying to attract public attention. Prosecutors must prove that the defendant was seeking attention to successfully have someone convicted of felony indecent exposure. Court records show that Bailey was convicted of felony indecent exposure in 2007 in San Francisco. However, he was convicted of misdemeanor lewd acts and released. It is not known if the seat in question has been removed from the train. This is not the first time people have been known to get up close and personal with a mode of transport. Edward Smith, from Washington State, admitted having sex with 1,000 cars back in 2008. He claimed to first have sex with a car at the age of 15 and said he had never been attracted to men or women. His 'girlfriend' at the time was a white Volkswagen Beetle named Vanilla. Daniel Cooper, 24, from Wales, was banned from going out at night in September after he stripped naked and simulated a sex act against a Land Rover Discovery. Cooper, of Springfields, Holywell, admitted indecent exposure when he appeared at Flintshire Magistrates Court sitting at Mold. He was given a three-month community order which banned him from going outdoors between 7pm and 7am on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights for three months. He was also ordered to pay £85 costs. One of his friends at the time said: 'Daniel will never live this down - everyone is saying he was tyred and exhausted afterwards.'

(CNN) -- Three debates down. Two weeks of campaigning to go. President Barack Obama put Republican challenger Mitt Romney on the defensive on foreign policy in the final presidential debate Monday night, with analysts and an immediate poll giving Obama the victory. With 15 days before the November 6 vote, the candidates now hit the road for the final sprint to Election Day -- focusing on the handful of vital battleground states that could decade the closely contested race. Obama kicks off his "America Forward" tour Tuesday with events in Florida and Ohio, where he will be joined by Vice President Joe Biden, while Romney and his running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan, campaign in Nevada and Colorado. In Monday's debate, Obama sought to highlight his experience after nearly four years leading the nation's military and foreign policy efforts. Romney, a former governor with less foreign policy experience, tried to paint Obama as an ineffective leader even as he expressed agreement with many of the administration's steps in Syria, Iran and other hotspots. Were your questions answered? Share your reactions to the final debate. Analysts agreed that Obama won on points, but questioned if the result would have a big impact on voters and the race as a whole. "There's no question debate coaches would score this one for the president," said CNN Chief National Correspondent John King, while CNN Senior Political Analyst David Gergen said Obama "dominated the middle of the debate" and emerged as the winner. Both King and Gergen agreed that Romney avoided sounding like an overzealous advocate of military action -- which is how Obama and Democrats seek to portray him. Alex Castellanos, a Republican strategist and CNN contributor, conceded Obama "won tonight on points, no doubt about it," but added that Romney showed the leadership style of a commander-in-chief to demonstrate that making a change in the White House would be safe. A CNN/ORC International poll of people who watched the debate showed 48% favored Obama compared to 40% for Romney, numbers barely within the margin of error range of plus-or-minus 4.5%. Another poll by CBS scored it a clear victory for Obama. At the same time, the CNN/ORC poll showed viewers thought Romney established credibility as a leader, which former White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer, a Republican strategist and CNN contributor, said was very important. "This isn't going to change the trajectory of the result," Fleischer said, noting that 24% of those questioned said the debate made them more likely to vote for Obama while 25% said it nudged them toward Romney, and 50% said they were not influence either way. The poll also reinforced a gender gap in the race, with women favoring Obama as a strong leader by 59% to 39%, while men chose Romney by 53% to 43%. Obama needs to repeat the strong support from women voters -- who comprise half the electorate -- that helped him win in 2008. The third and final face-to-face showdown occurred with the candidates running even in national polls and the race hinging on a handful of battleground states -- particularly Ohio, Florida and Virginia. According to the latest polls, Obama has a slight lead in Ohio. Romney is ahead in Florida, and Virginia is a dead heat. In the debate, Obama more than once sought to highlight Romney's lack of foreign policy experience. The president took a jab at his challenger's world view -- paying him a backhanded compliment for his analysis of the threat of terrorism to the United States. "Governor Romney, I'm glad that you recognize that al Qaeda is a threat, because a few months ago when you were asked what's the biggest geopolitical threat facing America, you said Russia, not al Qaeda; you said Russia," Obama said, adding that "the 1980s, they're now calling to ask for their foreign policy back because, you know, the Cold War's been over for 20 years." Romney countered that in that speech, he had argued Iran was the nation's greatest security threat and identified Russia as a "geopolitical foe." "Attacking me is not talking about how we're going to deal with the challenges that exist in the Middle East, and take advantage of the opportunity there, and stem the tide of this violence," he said. Romney added that Obama's foreign affairs policies have made the United States less respected and more vulnerable, particularly as it relates to Iran. "I think from the very beginning, one of the challenges we've had with Iran is that they have looked at this administration, and felt that the administration was not as strong as it needed to be," Romney said. Romney also repeatedly tried to shift the discussion to his strongest issue -- the continued high unemployment and slow economic recovery under Obama -- arguing that a strong foreign policy and national defense depends on a strong economy. "We want to end those conflicts to the extent humanly possible," Romney said. "But in order to be able to fulfill our role in the world, America must be strong. America must lead. And for that to happen, we have to strengthen our economy here at home." Romney also accused Obama of supporting policies that undermine the nation's military preparedness. "Our Navy is smaller now than at any time since 1917," the Republican nominee said, also noting that "our Air Force is older and smaller than at any time since it was founded in 1947." Obama fired back, suggesting Romney "maybe hasn't spent enough time looking at how our military works." "You mentioned the Navy, for example, and that we have fewer ships than we did in 1916," Obama said. "Well, governor, we also have fewer horses and bayonets because the nature of our military has changed." Sarcastically noting that the Navy now has "these things called aircraft carriers, where planes land on them" as well as "ships that go underwater, nuclear submarines," Obama concluded that "the question is not a game of 'Battleship,' where we're counting ships -- it's what are our capabilities." How foreign policy hits close to home . Romney applauded the Obama-approved mission that killed Osama bin Laden and his efforts to take out other al Qaeda leaders but insisted that "we can't kill our way out of this mess." Rather, he pushed for "a comprehensive strategy" to curb violent extremism in the Middle East. "The key that we're going to have to pursue is a -- is a pathway to get the Muslim world to be able to reject extremism on its own," Romney said, proposing U.S. policies to promote economic development, better education, gender equity and to help create institutions. However, he was unable to express any significant policy difference with Obama on how that would happen. Obama responded by criticizing his opponent on a host of foreign policy issues -- claiming Romney had favored positions that would have hurt the United States or offered sometimes contradictory views. "What we need to do with respect to the Middle East is strong, steady leadership -- not wrong and reckless leadership that is all over the map," the president said. Read the full debate transcript . Romney's economic plan seeks trillions in tax cuts while increasing defense spending, which would increase the deficit, Obama said. For his part, Romney repeatedly shifted back to his stump speech criticism of the nation's sluggish economic recovery under Obama's policies, which he says have hindered growth through high taxes and onerous regulations. The candidates were at odds as well about how Washington should ultimately respond to the continuing violence in Syria. Checking the candidates' facts on foreign policy and national security . Talking about the need to provide those fighting Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's forces with arms, Romney said the Democratic incumbent has not done enough to curb violence that has left tens of thousands of people dead and also destabilized the region. "We should be playing the leadership role," Romney said. That precipitated a quick response from Obama, who pointed to American efforts to organize international efforts to address the issue as well as its support for opposition factions. "We are making sure that those we help will be our friends (in the future)," he said. A strong performance by Romney against a lackluster Obama in the first debate October 3 in Denver helped the GOP challenger tighten the race and even pass the president in some polls. Where they stand: Candidates and issues . The president fought back to win the second debate last week in New York, according to polls and pundits, setting up Monday night's showdown at Lynn University in Boca Raton, Florida, moderated by CBS News Chief Washington Correspondent Bob Schieffer. Until recently, polls showed Obama ahead of the former governor on foreign relations issues, and the Romney campaign has mounted pointed attacks in an attempt to narrow the president's advantage. Other issues discussed in the debate included Iran's nuclear ambitions, China and the war in Afghanistan. Both candidates pledged to support Israel if the Jewish state comes under attack, and Romney backed the 2014 date set by Obama and NATO for withdrawing combat troops from Afghanistan. Romney has landed blows thus far in the campaign by promoting his own business background while arguing that continued high unemployment and sluggish growth showed failed policies under the president. CNN/Google Campaign Explorer: Ads, money and travel . In a major foreign policy address on October 8, Romney promoted a traditional U.S. foreign policy dating back decades, based on exerting global influence through military and economic power. While the speech sought to distinguish himself from Obama on foreign policy, specific proposals he cited then were similar to what the administration is doing. Obama's campaign has accused Romney of shifting positions on foreign policy matters and mishandling a trip to England, Israel and Poland this summer when he publicly questioned London's preparedness to host the Olympic Games and cited cultural differences as a reason for economic disparities between Israelis and Palestinians.

By . Daily Mail Reporter . Two women who were sexually abused as children by their stepfather have spoken out in a bid to help other victims after his crimes went unpunished for nearly two decades. Katie Shortman, 24, and Dellisa Shortman, 25, have bravely spoken out after Paul Ward was jailed for four years when he admitted two counts of indecent assault. Ward, 50, of Sale, Greater Manchester, began abusing his two stepdaughters in the early 90s, when they were aged just five and six. Katie Shortman (right), 24, and Dellisa Shortman (left), 25, have waived their anonymity to speak out in a bid to help other victims of abuse . He was left to groom the girls with . sweets at their home and abuse them over a two-year period, despite . having a conviction for abusing a four-year-old boy and being known to . social services, the police and the CPS. The two sisters have now waived their right to anonymity, granted under the Sexual Offences Act 1992, and spoken out in a bid to help other victims of abuse. Katie, 24, said: 'He used to buy me sweets . and take me places which was something me and my sister rarely had when . he wasn’t around. I would plead with him to stop, crying, telling him he . was hurting me. My sister would try to fight him off. We both would be . screaming but nothing would stop him.' The . girls were taken into care aged seven and eight. Both spent the first . three years at a children’s home. But their bond was broken when they were separated. Katie became addicted to cocaine at the age of 12 and fell pregnant at 14, while still in the care system. She had three children by the age of 19 - two have been adopted and one was stillborn. Paul Ward, 50, began abusing his two stepdaughters in the early 90s, when they were aged just five and six . She . said: 'I used to take drugs, I’d run away and go into men’s houses. I . felt like I should be abused - I was conditioned in that way. I was . confused and alone, I had to grow up fast, I used to run away from . foster placements because it felt like I was being punished.' Because of her mental health problems, she lost custody of both her children. She . said: 'It kills me inside that I can’t hold my children, have a family, . and can no longer have the bond with my sister I once had. It feels . like everything has been taken from me because of this man’s disgusting . actions. He has ripped my life apart. While he has lived a free life for . the past 17 years, I have suffered in silence.' She said she feels the authorities failed her as a child - but has praised the police work after the case was reopened in 2011. She said: 'The police this time have been incredible, if it wasn’t for them I would still feel like nobody cared. 'I . hope no little girl or boy ever has to go through what I went through. All those people who should have protected us failed us greatly. Anybody . who is aware of a child being abused and does nothing about it is as . bad as the abuser. More needs to be done so agencies can work together . and get closure. I feel like Paul stole my innocence and social services . stole my potential.' She . went on to say: 'I won’t allow him into my heart. My life’s too . precious to have something so sick and twisted in it. What he did to me . impacted on how I saw life but I’m no longer a victim, I’m a surviving . victim. Even if I can help one child in the same predicament as me, I’ll . die happy.' She now plans to write a book about her experience in order to help others. She . said: 'I want for other children not to have to wait 17 years to get . someone to listen - give them the courage to come forward about their . abuse.' Sisters Katie and Dellisa Shortman have spoken out in a bid to help other victims of sexual abuse. Paul Ward (right), 50, began abusing his two stepdaughters in the early 90s, when they were aged just five and six . Dellisa, 25, . also has depression, anxiety and other mental health issues. She was . Ward’s first target and later, when he began to abuse her little sister, . Dellisa would try to protect her from their stepfather. After they were sent to different children’s homes they met only once a year. Dellisa . had a girl when she was 21 but she was adopted because Dellisa, who has . mental health and learning difficulties, was unable to care for her. She now lives in Oldham in a flat on her own. She said: 'I can’t forgive him, I feel like he should have got a lot longer. He took nearly 20 years of our lives.' She . went on to say: 'My child was taken off me. I’ve never had the right . support and it’s had such a big impact on my life. I don’t have the . close relationship with my sister that I should have.' The judge said there were a number of missed opportunities to stop Ward, who was convicted in 1993 of abusing a four-year-old boy . Jailing . Ward at Manchester Minshull Street Crown Court, Judge Maurice Greene . told him: 'These two girls during the 1990s were let down by social . services, by the police, and by the Crown Prosecution Service. 'Had their case been dealt . with properly, it’s highly likely that you would have been before the . courts many, many years ago and some form of closure may have been . available to these two young women a long time ago.' The . judge said there were a number of missed opportunities to stop Ward, . who was convicted in 1993 of abusing a four-year-old boy, including a . police surgeon examination of Dellisa when she was a young girl which . showed evidence of abuse. Other missed opportunities . included a police interview with Katie in 1998 in which she told . officers her stepfather abused her; a police interview with Dellisa in . 1999 when she again complained of abuse; and reports from school that . the girls were showing symptoms of abuse. In each of these cases no action was taken. He . said: 'It really was not until 2011 when they were interviewed as . adults that prosecution followed. This was an indication of the change . in the prosecution authorities. That can only be for the better.' He added: 'What is clear is . that you abused your position as their stepfather. You abused the . position of trust you had in that family. Your abuse has had a . considerable effect on both these girls. You have ruined a large part of . their lives.' Earlier, the court heard how Ward would send his wife to the shops to have time alone with the girls, grooming them with sweets. Katherine . Pierpoint, defending, said Ward had shown genuine remorse for his . actions. She said he appeared a ‘rather pathetic character’, adding that . he had alcohol and cannabis addictions and that the period of abuse was . during a time of particularly heavy drinking. 'I won’t allow him into my heart. My life’s too . precious to have something so sick and twisted in it' - Katie Shortman . He was put on the sex offenders’ register for life. Greater Manchester Police said in a statement: 'These two girls who are now women reported the abuse to Greater Manchester Police and Trafford Council social services in 1998.

THEY last saw each other when he was just seven years' old. So Ed Miliband and his long lost aunt Sarah Ben Zvi had plenty to catch up on. The Labour leader and his wife Justine met her and other relatives for a traditional Friday night meal at a kibbutz near Tel Aviv last night. It was an emotional reunion for the Labour leader and the aunt he had not seen since he was seven years old . Mr Miliband and his wife Justine met with relatives for a traditional Friday night meal . Mrs Ben Zvi, left, is a cousin of the Labour leader's mother, Marion, and grew up with her in Poland before the Nazi invasion . Mrs Ben Zvi, 84, grew up with the Labour leader's mother Marion, her first cousin, in the town of Czestochowa in Poland. However, when the Nazis invaded in September 1939, life - until then comfortable - was turned upside down. German troops commandeered Marion's parents' steel factory which employed dozens of people, and torched Jewish schools and synagogues, before deportations began in 1942. Mr Miliband's mother, sister and grandmother fled, and sheltered by nuns in a convent - at a location she has never revealed - escaped persecution, at great personal risk to their protectors. Sarah and her mother were among those who were deported, when the Nazis, in September 1942, murdered around 2,000 Jews on the spot and sent another 40,000 to concentration camps. Sarah, only a teenager, survived. After the war the family were briefly reunited at the kibutz Mr Miliband visited last night. They then separated again, with Mr Miliband's mother heading to London in 1947, thanks to a charitable organisation, and eventually attended the London School of Economics, where she met his father Ralph. Mr Miliband's father had fled Nazi-occupied Belgium and served in the Royal Navy during the war. Sarah and her family stayed in Israel, which the Labour leader is visiting on a three-day tour. This included a visit on Thursday to the Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial in Jerusalem - where he was presented with new research about Marion's father, believed to have died at Auschwitz. He is one of more than 60 members of Mr Miliband's family believed to have been killed in the Holocaust. Mr Miliband sees Israel as having a special place in his heritage due to the sanctuary it has given his family . The Leader of the Opposition looked through old family photo albums as he reunited with long-lost relatives . Mr Miliband's three-day trip around Israel is meant to be a mixture of personal and political occasions . When the Second World War broke out, Mr Miliband's father, Ralph, and grandfather, Sam, made their way to England. However, his grandmother Renee remained in Brussels to look after her young daughter, Nan. Renee eventually fled the city in 1942, after a gruelling interrogation by the Gestapo on the whereabouts of her husband and son. She was taken in by a family friends Maurice and Louisa Vos and she stayed on their farm for the rest of the war. After the war the family split up with some members, including Mr Miliband's mother, heading to London, while the rest settled in Israel. Sixty members of Mr Miliband's family were killed during the Holocaust and he yesterday visited the Yad Vashem Museum, which remembers those who lost their lives in the atrocity . A number of Miliband's family members came to live in Israel shortly after the Second World War .

(CNN) -- In Florida, a 64-year-old bus driver has been criticized for failing to physically intervene in a three-on-one fight that took place in July. The bus driver says he was afraid to step in. As a high school teacher, I can't blame him. The adults who work in public schools are outnumbered. When a violent, hormone-fueled scene unfolds, it's our duty to quell the calamity with every resource we have in the name of safety. But where do we draw the line? Early in my teaching career, I was afraid of some of the bigger boys at school, especially one. I could see he carried a great deal of hatred inside -- for me, for his classmates, for the world. He was tall and muscular; he could have been an athlete, but his poor grades, bad attitude and spotty record kept him from playing sports. One afternoon, as I waited outside my classroom door, I heard a scuffle behind me. The boy I feared and another, smaller boy were shoving each other by my white board. I stepped in, and told them to stop. When they didn't, I shouted louder and told another student, my go-to helper, to get another teacher. As the shoves turned to punches, rage grew in the larger boy's eyes. The other student asked him to stop, but he had thrust his hands around his neck. I tried to pull him free, but the large boy shoved, pressing the other student and my arm against the cinder block wall. I felt trapped and frightened, and thought I might black out. Just then, two male teachers pulled the boys apart and dragged them to the office. "Are you OK?" a third teacher said. "Look at your hand!" My wrist was red and swollen. It hurt, but not as much as knowing I wasn't safe in my own classroom. My neighbor teacher took over my class so that I could go to the office to fill out an incident report. I could barely grip the pen. Two police officers assigned to our school urged me to file assault charges against the boys, but I insisted they just hadn't seen me. I wanted to believe that they wouldn't hurt me, but I also wondered if the boy would retaliate if the law got involved. Fortunately, my wrist was only sprained and I returned to work the next day in a cumbersome brace. But I kept wondering, what if the boy had pushed the other one harder? What if his anger was directed at me? Suppose it was my head that was smashed against that cinderblock wall? What if he'd had a weapon? On the other side, what if adrenaline gave me undiscovered strength and I had hurt one of them? Could their parents sue me? Would I lose my job? Both students were expelled, but the one I'd been afraid of eventually returned. "C'mon, man," he'd scowl when I asked him to hurry along to class. When I saw anger in his eyes, I backed away, and if needed, I asked for help. Almost a decade later and much wiser, I'm no longer afraid of my students, but I've made some changes to how I approach fights since then. I shout at students to stop and try to keep the crowd under control from a distance. If available and in working order, I'll use a radio or phone to contact administrators or school resource officers. Their appearance usually signals the end of a fight. After all, administrators are the disciplinarians in the school, with more training and higher pay than teachers, bus drivers or janitors. Officers wear badges, carry the pepper spray and, above all, are trained for combat situations. Of the many classes one must take in order to earn a teaching degree, not one prepares us for the possibility of classroom combat. Supplemental training in restraints and fight intervention is made available to some teachers, but I and most other teachers I know are mainly qualified to fight ignorance. We're the ones who can prevent fights from happening in the first place. I always ask a student who seems angrier or quieter than usual what's wrong, even if, "nothing," is the only answer I receive. I always listen to my students' seemingly banal chatter because fights seldom break out without some sort of a build up. Many times, one of my students, like a high school Don King, will bring an upcoming brawl to my attention. If fight rumors start to flood the hallways, or even if something seems a little off, it's best to bring it to the attention of the administrators or school resource officers. In many cases, students want an adult to intervene before the first fist is thrown. I've learned that the most responsible action can be protecting yourself so you can care for others. In keeping myself safe, I'm better able to protect my other students, the innocent bystanders. I have children of my own who need me to be functioning at 100%. I'm pregnant now, and when school starts in a few weeks, I must first and foremost protect my unborn child. For all of those reasons and more I will remain a conscientious objector during fights that occur in my classroom. As a parent, I'd expect the same of my children's teachers. I know that, like me, they didn't enter their classrooms to be prison guards, and that they'd prefer to guide children toward higher roads to civility. Sometimes it just takes a peaceful protest to get them there. Would you step in to stop a fight among teens? Do you expect the people who work at your child's school to do it? Share your thoughts in the comments, on CNN Living's Facebook page or on Twitter @CNNschools.

Violent clashes: Thousands of anti-government protestors have descended on Thailand's capital, Bangkok . Attack: Demonstrators hurled rocks, bottles and petrol bombs at riot officers, while carrying flags . Force: Police put up barricades and fired back rubber bullets, volleys of tear gas and water cannons . Anger: A protestor prepares to throw a tear gas cannister back at riot police outside Government House . It is the eighth day of protests aiming to overthrow the government of Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra. Last night, three people were killed - and a further 103 injured - by gunfire in fierce skirmishes at a Bangkok stadium. Today, more than 2,500 military personnel were deployed to tackle the clashes, which became so violent that Ms Yingluck was forced to flee to a nearby compound. The protestors - wearing bandanas, gas masks and plastic bags on their heads - surrounded Government House, pulled at barbwire barricades and seized police vans.

Protection: Two demonstrators protect themselves from tear gas by wearing a plastic bag on their heads . They also besieged state television . stations - demanding they broadcast the demonstrators' views and not the . government's. The violence has prompted Thailand's government to urge the capital's 10million residents to stay indoors overnight. Some of Bangkok's biggest shopping malls have also been closed. Today's clashes mark the first time police have used force since the protests began a week ago - a risky strategy that many fear could lead to more deaths.

Struggle: Other protestors hold cloths over their noses and mouths as they suffer the effects of the cannisters . However, last night's incident saw rival groups . clash at a large pro-government rally in a stadium in northeast Bangkok - leaving three dead and dozens wounded. Protestors are calling for the . overthrow of Ms Yingluck, who they believe has abused her party's . majority to push through laws that strengthen the behind-the-scenes . power of her self-exiled brother and former premier, Thaksin Shinawatra. The . demonstrations have raised fears of fresh political turmoil and . instability in Thailand, which is one of southeast Asia's biggest . economies. They have also posed the biggest threat to Ms Yingluck's administration since she came to power in 2011. Ferocious: A man hurls a rock at riot police during the week-long demonstrations in Thailand's capital . Dangerous: Opposition protesters use fire extinguishers during clashes with police outside Government House . Hurt: A Thai Buddhist monk washes his eyes after riot police fired tear gas at protesters today . Today, protest leader Suthep Thaugsuban unexpectedly announced that . he had met with Ms Yingluck - claiming he had told her he would accept . nothing less than her resignation and a new government of an appointed . council. In a defiant tone that drew cheers . from his supporters, Mr Suthep said the meeting was held under the auspices of the military, which claims it is . neutral in the conflict. He added that the talk had not constituted negotiations.

Preparing for battle: Police officers form a line behind barbed wires inside Bangkok's police headquarters, left, while riot police look out for protestors at the prime minister's headquarters, right .

Shinawatra listens to the people's voices, we will treat her like . gentlemen because we all are good citizens,' he said. Spokesmen for both the prime minister and the army have refused to comment on the alleged meeting. However, . government spokesman Teerat Ratanasevi has said Ms Yingluck is not . expected to make a public statement tonight - adding that the prime . minister is currently residing in a 'safe place'. Political instability has plagued Thailand since the military ousted Ms Yingluck's brother Thaksin in a 2006 coup. Effect: A rainbow forms in water cannon spray as protestors attempt to remove police barricades in the capital . Painful: An anti-government demonstrator lies on the ground after riot police launch the tear gas attack . Two years later, anti-Thaksin . demonstrators occupied Bangkok's two airports for a week after taking . over the prime minister's office for three months. And . in 2010, pro-Thaksin protestors flocked to downtown Bangkok for a . standoff that ended with parts of the city in flames and more than 90 . dead. Any further . deterioration is likely to scare away investors, as well as tourists who . come to Thailand by the millions and contribute 10 percent to the $602 . billion economy.

Army commander General Prayuth Chan-ocha - who said last week the army would not take sides - has urged the police not to use force. He has also called on protesters to avoid violence, according to an army spokesman. Most of the protesters are middle-class Bangkok residents who have been part of the anti-Thaksin movement for several years. Others include people brought in from the opposition Democrat Party strongholds in the southern provinces.

(CNN) -- A Microsoft executive took to the tech giant's official blog Wednesday to take an uncharacteristically direct shot at rival Apple. "Seems like the RDF (Reality Distortion Field) typically generated by an Apple event has extended beyond Cupertino," wrote Frank Shaw, Microsoft's vice president of communications. "So let me try to clear some things up." Shaw was referring to coverage of Apple's rollout of two new iPads -- the iPad Air and revamped iPad Mini -- and other announcements. Among them was news that the company will begin giving away its iWork suite of productivity apps for free. "Now, since iWork has never gotten much traction, and was already priced like an afterthought, it's hardly that surprising or significant a move," Shaw said. "So, when I see Apple drop the price of their struggling, lightweight productivity apps, I don't see a shot across our bow. I see an attempt to play catch up." Apple did not respond to a request for comment for this story. Shaw is pressing one of Microsoft's remaining advantages over its rival. While Apple has dominated the mobile field and made strides in computer sales, Microsoft Office -- which includes tools like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Skype -- is still viewed as the far superior productivity product by most. The "reality distortion field" Shaw referenced is a catchphrase often used by Apple critics to describe the sometimes breathless coverage the company gets in the tech press and elsewhere for even minor announcements or upgrades to existing products. "Perhaps attendees at Apple's event were required to work on iOS devices that don't allow them to have two windows open for side-by-side comparisons," he said in another dig. Shaw went on to compare Microsoft's tablets, the Surface and Surface 2, favorably to the iPad. He noted that the Surface tablets are less expensive than comparable iPad models, offer more storage and come with full versions of Office 2013 for free. His claims are accurate. But they don't change the fact that the Surface has struggled to make a splash in a tablet market that the iPad continues to dominate. Earlier this month, documents revealed Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer saw a bonus check docked because of lower than expected Surface sales. Meanwhile, at Tuesday's event, Apple CEO Tim Cook announced that 170 million iPads have been sold since the device was introduced in 2010. He said studies show 81% of all tablet usage happens on an iPad, despite recent gains by Samsung and others making tablets running Google's Android operating system.

(CNN) -- A 2009 cable sent from Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to American U.N. missions and embassies around the world ostensibly directed American diplomats to engage in intelligence-gathering. The 8,358 word National Humint Collection Directive (Humint being Human Intelligence) "reflects the results of a recent Washington review of reporting and collection needs focused on the United Nations," according to the document made public by the whistle-blower website WikiLeaks Sunday. The information Clinton directed the diplomats she oversees to ascertain ranged from basic biographical data such as diplomats' names and addresses to their frequent flyer and credit card numbers, to even "biometric information on ranking North Korean diplomats." Typical biometric information includes fingerprints, signatures, and iris recognition. The cable, simply signed 'CLINTON', is classified S/NF - or 'Secret/No Foreign' - and was sent to 33 embassies and the U.N. mission offices in New York, Vienna, and Rome. In a Twitter posting Sunday evening, State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley denied that American diplomats were doing double duty as intelligence gatherers. "Contrary to some #Wikileaks' reporting, our diplomats are diplomats. They are not intelligence assets," the tweet attributed to him said. He further downplayed the cable's significance by writing in a separate tweet: "Diplomats collect information that shapes our policies and actions. Diplomats for all nations do the same thing."

The most recent NHS figures show that one in ten children starting primary school is obese. (File picture) A five-year-old has become one of the youngest children to be taken into care for being obese, it emerged last night. Social workers decided the parents were doing too little to bring the youngster’s weight under control. The child, whose identity is protected by law, had a body mass index of 22.6 – clinically obese for a five-year-old. He or she is thought to have weighed around 4st 4lb – a stone and a half more than average. The decision was taken by  officials at Tameside Council in Greater Manchester. The local authority has also taken a 14-year-old into care, according to figures obtained under the Freedom of Information Act. The teenager had a BMI of 30.3, . giving a weight of 13 stone – five stone more than average. Another . child was removed by Sunderland council, but officials refused to . provide details of their age or weight, claiming it would breach data . protection laws. The Freedom of Information request . sent to all local authorities asked how many children, in the past . financial year, have been taken into care where obesity was cited as a . contributing factor. The vast majority responded and where care proceedings were instigated, gave general neglect as the reason. In . the previous year, 2009/10, four children were taken into care for . obesity reasons: three from the London borough of Lewisham aged three, . ten and 15, and an 11-year-old from Northumberland. Sir Liam Donaldson, warned that healthcare chiefs would look at removing children from their families if they became so obese their health was at risk . In September this year, social workers in Dundee provoked outrage by removing four obese children from their parents. Three girls aged 11, seven and one and a boy of five were placed into care to be ‘fostered without contact’ or adopted. The most recent NHS figures show that one in ten children starting primary school is obese. Overweight children are at far higher risk of heart disease, strokes, diabetes, asthma and cancer in later life. Experts predict that obesity will cost the Health Service up to £6.3billion a year by 2015. Sir Liam Donaldson, the former Chief Medical Officer, warned in 2006 that healthcare chiefs would look at removing children from their families if they became so obese their health was at risk. The first reported case came in 2007 when an eight-year-old girl from West Cumbria was taken into care weighing ten stone. In 2008, seven children were removed from homes in England. These included a six-year-old boy from Derby, an eight-year-old girl from Cumbria who had to wear size 16 clothes, and children from Lincolnshire, Wolverhampton and Tower Hamlets in London. ‘We sincerely hope that such occasions . would be rare…but make the point that this would be the automatic . response to a child at the other extreme – severe malnutrition' NATIONAL OBESITY FORUM . A spokesman for the National Obesity Forum said it supported placing obese children into care, but only after everything possible had been done to try to reduce their weight. ‘We sincerely hope that such occasions would be rare…but make the point that this would be the automatic response to a child at the other extreme – severe malnutrition,’ the spokesman said. A spokesman for Tameside Council said: ‘The point at which obesity turns into a child-protection issue is a complex and difficult area, and in these two cases there were other determining factors that led to the children being placed in local authority care. ‘Parents should be supported to address their child’s obesity, and social workers should only act if parents fail to engage with the proposed plan to improve their child’s safety and wellbeing.’ David Simmonds, of the Local Government Association’s children and young people board, said: ‘Social workers use their professional judgment about how best to keep children from harm.’

(CNN) -- As the number of suspected and confirmed swine flu cases continued to rise around the world, health officials announced new measures to contain the outbreak. Quarantine officers monitor arrivals with a thermographic device at Bangkok's main international airport. By Tuesday, the swine flu outbreak in Mexico was suspected in 159 deaths and roughly 2,500 illnesses, Mexican health officials said. So far, the World Health Organization says at least 104 cases have been confirmed worldwide, including 64 in the United States; 26 in Mexico; six in Canada; three in New Zealand; two each in Spain, the United Kingdom and Israel. With at least 11 other countries suspecting infections, the World Health Organization has raised its alert level from three to four on its six-level scale. The following is sample of what some countries are doing to combat the virus: . CANADA . Cases: Six mild cases . Measures: Issued a travel health notice, saying its public health agency was "tracking clusters of severe respiratory illness with deaths in Mexico." Tell us what you think about the swine flu outbreak . CHINA . Cases: None . Measures: Banned pork imports from Mexico, and from California, Kansas and Texas in the United States. INDIA . Cases: None Watch how public health officials grade phases of pandemic alerts » .

The first patient, who tested positive after a visit to Mexico, was recovering, and his 5-year-old niece was suspected of having the disease, said a spokeswoman at Laniado Hospital in Netanya. She is undergoing testing and treatment. Measures: The Health Ministry has not issued special instructions to the public, nor adopted measures for monitoring those returning from Mexico. The country is calling the outbreak "Mexico flu" so that citizens do not have to pronounce the name of an animal considered impure in Judaism and Islam. Watch efforts in Mexico to prevent spread of the virus » . JAPAN . Cases: None . Measures: The foreign ministry suspended visa waivers for visitors from Mexico. Airport officials are checking passengers before they disembark. KENYA . Cases: None . Measures: Screening passengers from Europe and the Americas at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi.

Kenya set up 26 screening centers to test people for avian flu following that outbreak a few years ago, and will also use the centers for swine flu testing. MEXICO . Cases: 159 deaths are thought to have been caused by swine flu, according to Jose Angel Cordova, Mexico's secretary of health. iReport.com: Do you think we should be worried about swine flu? So far, however, only 26 cases -- 19 infections and seven deaths -- have been confirmed by laboratory tests in Mexico and reported to the World Health Organization. Measures: Mexico City has closed its schools and universities until further notice. It has also ordered restaurants only to serve takeaway meals, so customers do not congregate. In addition, bars, clubs, movie theaters, pool halls, gyms, sport centers and convention halls have been told to close until May 5. Troops passed out 4 million filter masks in the city of 20 million residents. Officials are considering shutting down the bus and subway systems. Citizens are asked to avoid large crowds, refrain from kissing, and stay at least six feet from one another. The World Bank is offering $205 million to deal with the outbreak. NEW ZEALAND . Cases: 11 . Nine students, a teacher and another person who returned to New Zealand from Mexico over the weekend have confirmed cases of swine flu. Health officials said their symptoms are mild, and they are responding well to treatment. The students and teacher were part of a group from Auckland's Rangitoto College who spent three weeks in Mexico. Measures: New Zealanders who traveled to Mexico or North America in the past two weeks are asked to get in touch with health officials if they have flu-like symptoms. RUSSIA . Cases: None . Measures: Banned all meat imports from Mexico and the southern United States. Announced it will screen incoming passengers from those two countries by taking their temperatures. Set up a government commission to plan response, and advised citizens against traveling to Mexico. SOUTH KOREA . Cases: A 51-year-old woman, who recently returned from Mexico, tested positive for type-A influenza. Tests are being conducted to see whether the influenza is of the swine flu strain. The woman remained quarantined Tuesday. Measures: Suspended pork imports from Mexico, the United States and Canada. Stepped up inspections of passengers returning from affected areas. Took steps to double its stockpile of Tamiflu anti-viral medicine -- enough to treat about 5 million people, or 10 percent of the country's population. SPAIN .

Measures: The government is trying to reach passengers who were on flights with people suspected or confirmed with the flu. THAILAND . Cases: None. Measures: Airport officials are keeping a closer eye on passengers arriving from Mexico. The health ministry is calling the virus "the flu that has caused an outbreak in Mexico," so that the public does not confuse "swine flu" with "bird flu." The ministry also said it did not want to hurt the pork industry. UNITED ARAB EMIRATES . Cases: None . Measures: The ministry of health issued a circular, asking doctors to be prepared to deal with any potential swine flu cases. UNITED KINGDOM . Cases: Two confirmed, in Scotland. The patients are recovering. Measures: The Foreign Office advised against all but essential travel to Mexico. UNITED STATES . Cases: 64 confirmed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC has confirmed 10 cases in California, six in Texas, two in Kansas, one in Ohio and 45 in New York. Health officials in California, Indiana and Texas reported others Tuesday that the CDC had not yet added to its list. Measures: The government declared a public health emergency to free up federal, state and local agencies and their resources, should the need arise. The government urged travelers to avoid non-essential travel to Mexico. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued emergency authorization for the use of two of the most common anti-viral drugs, Tamiflu and Relenza. The authorization allows the distribution of the drugs by a broader range of health care workers and loosens age limits for their use. VENEZUELA . Cases: None. Measures: Security stepped up at airports and borders.
Health officials around world act to prevent swine flu from entering their borders . More than 150 deaths in Mexico are thought to have been caused by swine flu .

Even in victory, these are strange times at Old Trafford. The natives are restless and it will take more than a win over the 10 men of Sunderland to convince them that all is well at Manchester United under Louis van Gaal. Supporters booed when Jonny Evans passed the ball back to his goalkeeper David de Gea in the first half. They made no secret of their disapproval in the second when Van Gaal took off Radamel Falcao immediately after he had won a penalty. Until then, United had struggled to land a glove on a stubborn Sunderland side who played with Lee Cattermole sandwiched between two banks of four. Manchester United beat Sunderland 2-0 but Louis van Gaal still has a lot to do before the natives are happy . Gus Poyet isn’t the first to try it at Old Trafford and he certainly won’t be the last. But the way United struggled to break down their opponents for so long was not lost on their fans. They chanted ‘4-4-2’ when United laboured to victory at QPR in January, and ‘attack, attack, attack’ here after Evans had sent a long pass back to De Gea. The frustration is never far from the surface. One can sympathise with both Van Gaal and the supporters whom he is paid to please. At times this season United’s performances have not only fallen short of the cavalier football under Sir Alex Ferguson, they have been positively joyless. An exercise in attrition. Wayne Rooney celebrates his opened alongside Ashley Young as Manchester United beat Sunderland . While Van Gaal has tinkered with his tactics and personnel, the outcome has been largely the same. The 2-0 win over Sunderland followed an equally uninspiring 3-1 win over Burnley on United’s last home appearance when Chris Smalling scored two of the goals. Despite spending more than a £150million last summer on a squad that was far from shoddy in the first place – bringing the likes of Angel di Maria and Falcao with him to Manchester – the Dutchman has clearly struggled to make United a sum of their parts. Di Maria was awful here, Falcao full of running but offering little threat until he won the penalty with his last contribution of the game. Angel di Maria yet again struggled to impress for Manchester United and was subbed at half time . A generation of fans brought up on the thrills and spills of the Ferguson era are having to make do with something altogether less entertaining and a lot of them simply don’t like it. Even Van Gaal admits he is surprised they have been so patient at times. ‘In Barcelona, the white handkerchiefs would have come out,’ he said in December, reflecting on his first six months in English football. ‘In Bayern Munich, they would have been whistling. In Amsterdam, Ajax, they would have been shouting for my “friend” Cruyff. Here they stand up and applaud. Unbelievable.’ A relieved Manchester United celebrate Wayne Rooney's opener against Sunderland at Old Trafford . That goodwill has since become a little strained, but here’s the question. Performances or points? Ferguson delivered both but, for now, United fans may have choose one or the other. Van Gaal has been hired to get United back into the Champions League. They are in third place with 11 games to go and through to the FA Cup quarter-finals after losing just two of their last 21 games. The alarming decline of the David Moyes era has been arrested, at least in terms of results. Van Gaal has won a trophy in his first season everywhere else, and you wouldn’t bet against him doing it with United at Wembley in May. Just don’t expect the FA Cup final to be a classic. Rooney looks at Sunderland defender Wes Brown as Brown is sent off after he was shown a red card . If there’s any consolation for supporters, Van Gaal knows they deserve better. He has talked before about finding the ‘perfect game’, about the players needing time to buy into his ‘philosophy’ before it all comes good. In his programme notes for this game he wrote: ‘The signs in training, and also in some of the matches, show me that we are improving. What we are striving for now is that good all-round team performance when everything clicks into place. I am sure it is not far away.’ On the evidence of this performance, some fans will remain unconvinced.
Two goals from Wayne Rooney earned Manchester United all three points . But the hosts were yet again far from impressive in victory at Old Trafford . Big money signing Angel di Maria was hauled off at half time of the win . Radamel Falcao also struggled to impress upfront for the Red Devils .

Las Vegas (CNN) -- For David Shafter, it should have been a dream: A crush of excited people swarming his booth at the International Consumer Electronics Show, where his startup is launching its first product. But all the people hoisting cameras and raising themselves on tiptoe for a better view Wednesday afternoon weren't there to see his robot. They were angling for a peek at pop star Justin Bieber, who was making an appearance at the booth next door. "We're pretty much shut down," said Shafter with a weary look of resignation, as rubberneckers squealed and shouted "Justin!" in the background. "We can't run our demos." Shafter's fledgling company, Xybotyx, is making its first appearance at CES to introduce its Xybot, a hockey-puck-shaped robotic device that zips around on little wheels, controlled by an iPhone or iPod Touch. Owners can download apps to their phone that give the robot specific behaviors, like avoiding obstacles. The gadget will go on sale this spring at the quirky price of $111.11. But none of the hundreds of people pressed up against his booth cared about that. They only had eyes for the teen singer with the sideswept hair who was greeting fans nearby at the TOSY booth, where he made an appearance on behalf of that company's new mRobo, a portable speaker that morphs, "Transformers" style, into a little dancing robot. Middle-aged tech execs aren't exactly Bieber's demographic, but many onlookers said they were there to get photos or autographs for their teen-age kids. Some people even asked if they could climb atop Shafter's plywood demo table to get a better view. (The answer was no.) "It's the best of times, it's the worst of times," grumbled Shafter's business partner, Xybotyx co-founder Dan McShan, surveying the madness surrounding him. "We're trying to get him (Bieber) to defect." Shafter said he was planning to approach CES officials about compensating him for his lost booth time during Bieber's two-hour appearance. "It's definitely costing us valuable hours of time with our target audience," McShan said. In the meantime, however, Shafter had another plan: If he couldn't beat them, he was going to join them. He placed one of his robots on the floor and, using his iPhone, began navigating it toward Bieber in the hopes of getting a remote-controlled picture. "I was driving it up to the Bieb," he said with a grin a few minutes later. "I made it about halfway there. But the security guard grabbed it."
Entrepreneurs had misfortune of a CES booth next to where Justin Bieber was appearing . Rubberneckers overwhelmed their Xybotyx booth, but not to see their robot . Startup co-founder: "It's the best of times, it's the worst of times"

Cure-for-all: Botox has been officially approved as a treatment for 12 medical conditions . Botox is 25 this year – that’s how many years since it was  first approved for medical use. And although it’s best  known as an anti-wrinkle jab, last year just over half of its sales were for non-cosmetic uses. Its first use was as a treatment for eye spasms – the active ingredient, botulinum toxin, works by blocking the nerve signals that tell muscles to contract, temporarily paralysing them. Today, it’s widely used in children suffering from the limb stiffness of cerebral palsy, and this year it gained approval from the UK Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) for treating ankle-movement problems after a stroke. Botox has been officially approved for 12 conditions, and it – or other botulinum toxins – are being investigated for more than 20 medical uses. Just this month, it was revealed that Botox may combat stomach cancer and trials are under way. ‘It really is a phenomenal drug,’ says Dr Mervyn Patterson, a cosmetic doctor who has been using Botox for more than 15 years. So, from top to toe, here are just a few of the more everyday  ailments Botox can treat. SWEATING . Hyperhidrosis, or extreme sweating, often can’t be controlled by antiperspirants. But multiple, superficial injections of Botox have been shown  in studies to reduce perspiration by more than  50 per cent in eight in ten patients. In half of patients, the effects last more than seven months. HOW DOES IT WORK? Botox temporarily blocks the secretion of the chemical responsible for switching on sweat glands. About 12 to 20 jabs are given in affected areas, such as the armpits, hands, feet or face. JAB ME! Botox for hyperhidrosis has been approved and your GP can refer you for NHS treatment. It is also widely available privately from about £600. JOINT PAIN . Botox has been found to help knee, shoulder and hip pain caused by osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis. In a study of patients with arthritis of the shoulder, a single Botox treatment improved pain in 38 per cent, compared with nine per cent who had a placebo injection. In separate studies, Professor Bazbek Davletov at Sheffield University has created a fusion of botulinum toxin with elements of the tetanus bug to create a new painkilling injection. HOW DOES IT WORK? Botox can block nerve signals that transmit pain messages to the brain. It can also ease muscle spasms and tightness around joints. The tetanus hybrid toxin appears to stop pain signals being sent from the spinal cord to the brain. JAB ME! The health company Allergan is conducting trials with the aim of seeking approval for arthritis treatment with Botox injections. The new hybrid drug is in preliminary studies. While research continues, proven treatment options – such as exercise, weight loss and medication – remain the focus of most arthritis treatment. Less of a sting: Although botox is best known as an anti-wrinkle jab, last year just over half of its sales were for non-cosmetic uses . INCONTINENCE . Many woman suffer incontinence, particularly after having children or the menopause. Women with a specific type called urge incontinence have trouble reaching the loo in time when they feel the need to urinate. Botox can improve symptoms in more than 90 per cent for up to a year . HOW DOES IT WORK? It’s thought that urge incontinence is due to spasming of the smooth bladder muscle –  Botox injected into the bladder wall reduces this activity without completely paralysing it, and increases its storage capacity. JAB ME! Botox for urinary incontinence is approved and available on the NHS for those for whom other drugs do not work. It is also available privately. FOOT PAIN . Plantar fasciitis is an inflammation on the sole of the foot that leaves sufferers unable to walk for months without pain. But a Mexican study found toxin jabs offered a speedy recovery. HOW DOES IT WORK? Six months after having injections, patients showed faster and better recovery than those who had steroid injections. JAB ME! More studies are needed before it becomes widely available. SCARRING . After . a wound from surgery such as a caesarean or an injury, some skin types . develop thick,  rope-like, keloid scarring. Dr Patterson says: . ‘Those . prone to keloid scarring generally know about it. Evidence has been . around for some time that if Botox is injected in and around a scar as . it is healing, the appearance is reduced.’ Helping hands: Different types of botox - botulinum toxins - are being investigated for more than 20 medical uses . HOW DOES IT WORK? ‘Reducing tensile force across a wound means less tension at the suture line, which translates into less scar tissue,’ explains Dr Patterson. ‘Tests on cells extracted from keloid wounds treated with Botox show less production of growth factors which stimulate scarring.’ JAB ME! Some cosmetic doctors are offering this treatment now. Cost varies greatly depending on size of wound but starts from £300. BACK PAIN . Back pain tops the league table of years lost to disability and costs the UK millions of work  days every year. According to Mr Robert Lee, consultant spinal surgeon at Spire Bushey Hospital (spirebushey.com) most back pain is caused by a muscular stiffness or spasms. Botox has been found in several small trials to relieve pain for up to four months in about 60 per cent of patients. HOW DOES IT WORK? Botox blocks communication between nerves and muscles so the muscle is not told to contract. Spasms stop or are greatly reduced. JAB ME! The studies so far have been small, and the treatment is not FDA or MHRA-approved, but it  is available at some BUPA hospitals on GP referral. Price on application. MIGRAINE . Patients who suffered an average of 20 days of migraine a month had injections into specific areas of the head and neck. After a year, 70 per cent had more than 50 per cent fewer attacks. HOW DOES IT WORK? No one knows quite how Botox works for migraine but it may reduce the release of neurotransmitters, chemicals in the brain that generate migraines. JAB ME! In 2010 both the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) – often considered a  gold standard – and the MHRA approved Botox for chronic migraine. Patients with chronic migraine with at least 15 days of headache of which eight are migraine, who don’t respond  to drug treatment, are eligible for NHS treatment. Patients should speak to their GP for referral. Private treatments are available and cost £500 to £600. TEETH GRINDING . Also known as bruxism – stress is thought to lead to involuntary clenching of the jaw muscles, typically in sleep. It can permanently damage teeth as well as causing headaches and jaw pain. Botox reduces grinding better than a placebo. HOW DOES IT WORK? Dr Patterson says: ‘Botox is placed in the masseter, the main chewing muscle. Relief is within days and works in the majority of people. Another injection is usually required three months later but the effect after this is often prolonged.’ JAB ME! Many cosmetic doctors and dentists offer this service, from about £300.
Over half of UK Botox sales in 2013 were for non-cosmetic uses . Botulinum toxins are being investigated for more than 20 medical uses . This month, it was revealed that Botox may combat stomach cancer .

(CNN)The makers of Cadbury Creme Eggs are walking on eggshells with fans of the beloved Easter treat after a recent tweak in the recipe. The chocolate eggs, filled with a cloying "yolk" of yellow and white fondant, were originally made in the United Kingdom with Cadbury's signature Dairy Milk chocolate. Now, under the new recipe, they're made with "a standard, traditional Cadbury milk chocolate," said a spokeswoman for Mondelez International, a spinoff of Kraft Foods, in a statement. Kraft acquired British candy maker Cadbury in 2010 for roughly $19 billion. The change applies only to Cadbury eggs sold in the United Kingdom. The goo-filled eggs usually appear on shelves starting in January until April. "We have always used a range of milk chocolate blends for different products, depending on their shape or consistency," the spokeswoman said. "The fundamentals of the Cadbury Crème Egg remain exactly the same -- delicious milk chocolate and the unique creme centre that consumers love." However, fans aren't buying it. Some took to Twitter to vent their displeasure. According to Cadbury, 500 million creme eggs are made each year, and about two-thirds of those are consumed in the UK. This is not Cadbury's first controversy of 2015's creme-egg season: Fans expressed similar disappointment when the number of eggs in each pack was cut from six to five.

I'm just a passenger: Dr Anthony Marsh is reported to have racked up £20,800 a year on VIP transport between his offices – averaging out at £400 a week . An NHS Ambulance boss earning almost a quarter of a million a year is also spending thousands of pounds of taxpayers’ cash on chauffeur-driven rides to work, it has emerged. Dr Anthony Marsh is reported to have racked up £20,800 a year on VIP transport between his offices – averaging out at £400 a week. He is paid £232,000 a year — £90,000 more than the Prime Minister — to run both the West Midlands and East of England Ambulance services, and has been described as the ‘highest paid public servant you’ve never heard of.’ For the West Midlands service (WMAS), which has been fined £2.6million for missing targets and which Dr Marsh has led since 2006, he drives a company car - a 2012 silver Range Rover Sport. But since the beginning of this year, he has also worked three days a week for the East of England service (EEAS). It is understood he cannot drive himself the 154 miles between the two bases himself because he works during the journey. A Mercedes picks him up at his home in Bridgnorth, Shropshire, and takes him on a three-hour journey to his office in Melbourn, Cambridgeshire. He stays in hotels twice a week on average — costing around £80 a time, or £8,320 a year. Last week, Dr Marsh was criticised after it was revealed his annual pay rose by £50,000 this year. His total remuneration amounts to £275,298 with benefits including a £9,400 allowance for the Range Rover and his £33,672 pension. John O’Connell, director of The Taxpayers’ Alliance said: ‘This is a crazy amount of money to be wasting when the NHS can’t afford to.’ Joyce Robbins, of Patient Concern, added: ‘It smacks of a different age.’ It comes just three months after WMAS was fined £2.6million for missing government targets for attending 75 per cent of emergencies within eight minutes. Meanwhile EEAS has reached just 73.6 per cent of the most critical ‘Red 1’ calls between April 2013 and March 2014. In addition, it has been told to make £50million savings by 2017. Fast, but not fast enough... Both the West Midlands Ambulance Service and the East of England Ambulance Service have failed to meet targets for attending 75 per cent of emergency call-outs within eight minutes . Commuting in style: Dr Marsh's chauffeur-driven Mercedes takes him on a three-hour journey from his home in Bridgnorth, Shropshire, to his office in Melbourn, Cambridgeshire. He can't drive himself because he is working . Dr Marsh was brought in to oversee EEAS after criticising its failings in a report. The service says Dr Marsh has put in plans so its targets are met. A spokesman said his joint role saves £130,000 across both trusts and he oversees 9,000 staff covering 12,000 square miles. He has helped make £6million savings which was funding 400 staff, 147 ambulances and over 60 rapid response vehicles. The spokesman added: ‘The organisation has turned a corner thanks to Mr Marsh’s actions.’ When Dr Marsh’s salary package was revealed earlier this year, Labour MP Tom Watson called for ‘more scrutiny’ and asked whether he was the ‘highest paid public servant you’ve never heard of.’

By . Tim Shipman, Deputy Political Editor . PUBLISHED: . 17:21 EST, 22 June 2012 . | . UPDATED: . 19:38 EST, 22 June 2012 . No cap: Labour Party leader Ed Miliband tried to win back support from voters by outlining plans to combat immigration within the EU . Ed Miliband refused to back a cap on immigration yesterday – despite admitting it was still ‘too high’. He outlined plans to combat immigration from within the European Union in an effort to win back support from voters who felt the Labour government abandoned them by supporting the huge influx of foreign workers. But his attempt to convince voters that his party has learned its lesson on immigration was undermined by his failure to tackle the greater scale of migration from outside the EU. The Labour leader offered no prescriptions for restricting the total net immigration, which is still running at 250,000 a year. The Tories have committed to reduce annual immigration from the hundreds of thousands to the tens of thousands by the 2015 general election. So far, the numbers have remained stubbornly high, but ministers say measures they have introduced in recent months to reform student visas and restrict the number of family members who can move here will begin to push numbers down. But Mr Miliband refused to endorse that approach – despite evidence that the huge influx of immigrants in recent years has left health, education and social services stretched. He said: ‘I am not going to do what the Government does. I am not going to make a blanket promise about numbers. The answer to numbers is it depends who is coming in and what they are coming here to do. 'On low skill migration I think numbers are probably still too high. I’d like to do something about it. But most of that is from within the EU because we have tightened up the other routes.’ Mr Miliband proposed new measures to prevent Britons being ‘locked out’ of jobs by foreign workers, including forcing firms to declare if they employ high numbers of immigrants. Labour would ban employment agencies that only use foreign workers and job centres would have to be informed of firms employing more than one in four staff from overseas. Mr Miliband distanced himself from the rhetoric of his predecessor Gordon Brown, saying: ‘I am not going to promise “British jobs for British workers”.’ He also said worrying about immigration ‘does not make people bigots, not in any way’, a reference to Mr Brown’s rebuke, during the 2010 general election, of pensioner Gillian Duffy, who he dismissed as a ‘bigoted woman’ after she raised concerns with him about immigration. Changes: Mr Miliband proposed new measures to prevent Britons being 'locked out' of jobs by foreign workers, including forcing firms to declare if they employ high numbers of immigrants . In a reference to the last Labour government, Mr Miliband added: ‘We too easily assumed those who worried about immigration were stuck in the past, unrealistic about how things could be different, even prejudiced. ‘But Britain was experiencing the largest peacetime migration in recent history, and people’s concerns were genuine. To those who lost out, Labour was too quick to say “Like it or lump it”.’ Sir Andrew Green, of Migrationwatch, said: ‘What was missing from his speech was an appreciation of the scale immigration has reached. It’s running at 250,000 a year. That is going to add  millions to our population in 15 years.’ Immigration Minister Damian Green said: ‘Until Ed Miliband supports the Government’s measures to cut and control immigration, Labour will have no credibility. Under his leadership, Labour have opposed our aim to get annual net migration down to the tens of thousands, and they have opposed the cap on economic migration, our changes to student visas and our reforms to family visas.’ Lesson from the past: Gordon Brown speaks in 2010 to resident Gillian Duffy, who he dismissed as a 'bigoted woman' after she raised concerns about immigration .

The pain goes on for England. This was the game they knew they needed to win, but instead it ended with a fifth successive defeat and the prospect of a demoralising autumn campaign. After last week’s fourth straight loss to world champions New Zealand, Stuart Lancaster’s national team were well aware of the urgent need for a result to ease growing pressure. Instead, they were beaten at home once more and their long wait for a victory over South Africa – a feat last achieved in 2006 – goes on. This was a shattering outcome and will leave England to clutch at straws again. Elements of their performance were impressive – particularly their driving maul which yielded two tries, their scrum and the exploits of their ball-carrying No 8s; first Billy Vunipola and then Ben Morgan. Mike Brown also made regular in-roads from full-back. VIDEO Scroll down to see where Stuart Lancaster feels England lost the game .

Just 10 months from now, England will go into a home World Cup and their ambition was to have turned Twickenham into a ‘fortress’ by then. Instead, it is a venue where the southern giants do not arrive with trepidation. While a selection reshuffle and a game against Samoa next week may generate much-needed hope and confidence, the key pointers are the Tests against the SANZAR countries and England are struggling against them. The showdown with Australia on November 29 now looms as a fixture of colossal significance. Lose that one and this will have been a disastrous November series. England had been anticipating good weather for this match, but in fact there was a long spell of pre-match rain which made conditions difficult for handling. There was moisture in the air and also on the emotional face of Billy Vunipola. The Saracens No 8 was in tears during the anthem – signifying the importance of this game to him personally and to the home team as a whole. Lancaster’s men had much to improve from last week, but they made a dazzling start against the All Blacks and they were similarly dynamic from the off this time. An early lineout catch and drive allowed Danny Care and Owen Farrell to release Kyle Eastmond, who made a nimble half-break, only to knock on in the tackle. Farrell was another of the England players who needed to raise his game after an off-colour display against New Zealand. However, the fly-half left his team scrambling desperately in the 10th minute when he attempted to counter-attack from his own 22 and release Anthony Watson, but the Springboks flooded the ruck, won turn-over ball and so nearly scored a try in the left corner. As it was, they were awarded a penalty which Patrick Lambie kicked for a 3-0 lead. Shortly afterwards, the visitors surged further ahead as Care suffered a calamity on his 50th Test appearance. England were patiently probing in the opposition half when the scrum-half had a pass intercepted by Jan Serfontein, who raced clear to score at the posts and Lambie converted. A 10-point deficit represented an English crisis and Mike Brown responded in fine style, with a scorching midfield break from a high kick, but he was stopped by Cobus Reinach on the Boks’ 22 and the move broke down. Then in the 24th minute, England should have had hit back with a try, only to fluff their opportunity. Danny Care seized on a ruck turn-over and broke to the right and the ball was worked to Dave Attwood who galloped clear. But the big Bath lock didn’t release Watson when he had a clear run to the line and by the time he took a tackle and off-loaded, the space had been closed up. Jonny May went close on the other flank, but a glorious opening had been squandered .

For the remainder of the first half, the game became disjointed and attritional, with both captains warned by referee Steve Walsh about deliberately collapsing mauls. England had the advantage in the scrum, but they couldn’t make a dent in South Africa’s imperious lineout and the Springboks were causing problems for the hosts at the breakdown. A penalty by Farrell put his team on the scoreboard and after Lambie had struck back at the other end, the England No 10 added another kick to ensure it was a one-score game going into the break. Any up-turn in optimism among home supporters was shattered seconds after the re-start, as South Africa conjured a sensational try. As England’s defence came up fast, Lambie’s clever kick over the top was taken by Willie Le Roux and the full back burst into the 22 before a brilliant back-hand off-load sent Cobus Reinach away to touch down. Lambie converted comfortably. Three minutes later, just as they were staring down the barrel, England were given renewed hope. Another powerful rolling maul was dragged by down the Boks and Victor Matfield was shown the yellow card. A week earlier, Lancaster’s side had been unable to capitalise when the All Blacks were reduced to 14 men, but this time they rallied strongly. Their driving game was causing chaos and from the penalty they kicked to the corner, took the lineout cleanly and the pack surged in-field, forcing David Wilson over for his maiden Test try. Farrell duly added the extras. The same method created another English try three minutes later, as South Africa’s depleted forwards were marched back through their 22 before Ben Morgan – on for Vunipola – twisted free and pounded through three defenders to score. Again Farrell converted and England were on terms. Victor Matfield was shown a yellow card after collapsing a maul following warnings to both sides by referee Steve Walsh .

England's Ben Morgan twists in the tackle to get the ball down for England's second try . Another try for the England forwards comes from Morgan as the home side make the most of the one-man advantage . Yet, parity was short-lived, as South Africa responded in kind. Their pack had been under the cosh, but they delivered another strong maul from an attacking lineout and Schalk Burger charged down the blindside to strike in the corner. Lambie couldn’t convert from the wide angle, but he added a penalty 13 minutes from time. By then, England had lost Dylan Hartley to the sin-bin, after the hooker was adjudged to have trampled on Duane Vermeulen at the bottom of a maul. They were also hampered by the fact that Farrell was clearly in pain, but the coaches appeared reluctant to remove him. Eventually, George Ford was brought on and his 68th-minute penalty put England in range of their rivals, but they kept succumbing to execution errors and disciplinary lapses, and a Lambie drop goal appeared to put the result beyond doubt. In fact, Brad Barritt’s try at the end of a sustained onslaught revived faint hope, but there was no time left for the hosts to snatch the result they so desperately craved.

(CNN) -- After dodging sharks and jellyfish during her swim from Cuba to Florida, Diana Nyad is now dealing with a different challenge: tough questions from her fellow marathon swimmers about the legitimacy of her achievement. In the days since Nyad walked out of the water last week at Key West after swimming 110 miles, a stream of questions has come at her. Could her speed have nearly doubled at one point? Did any of her team members touch her or support her? How could she have gone for hours without food or water? The questions are significant because the answers could determine whether Nyad is officially affirmed as the first person to have completed the Cuba-Florida swim unassisted and without a shark cage. Five thrill-seeking women breaking world records . During a conference call with more than a dozen of her peers Tuesday, Nyad was adamant that her swim was by the book. "I swam," she said. "We made it, our team, from the rocks of Cuba to the beach of Florida, in squeaky clean, ethical fashion." She said she never held onto a boat or another person "for any kind of flotation or support." Her navigator, John Bartlett, described how the team picked up a current that had them moving nearly four miles an hour for several hours on the second day of the nearly 53-hour journey. That's how and when her speed nearly doubled, he said. Diana Nyad's jellyfish-proof face mask . 'No handlers' Asked about reports she had gone for hours without food or water, Nyad said she never went more than 90 minutes. Getting into the suit that protected her against potentially deadly box jellyfish required duct taping her booties and gloves. That meant she was touched, she said, but never supported. There were "no handlers grabbing my ankles," Nyad said. "I was on my own steam entirely, but I was touched. I agree with it." If the group of her swimming peers determines that the suit and the touching mean her swim was assisted, that could nullify her record claim. One marathon swimmer who was on the call was unimpressed. "She acknowledged that her crew touched her when she was putting on the jellyfish suit," said Evan Morrison, a co-founder of Marathon Swimmers Forum. "And I know she feels that was necessary, but I personally feel that puts in the category of an assisted swim." Now, Nyad has to wait to see if the group of her peers agrees with Morrison, or with her. Nyad shows baby boomers so 'not over'

Traces of deodorant, perfume and soap left behind at crime scenes could soon be used by police to help trap criminals. Forensics experts are building chemical profiles of popular fragrances to help them identify scents left on clothing and items touched by offenders. They hope that by building up a 'scent profile' of the person behind a crime, it can help to narrow down lists of suspects and even be used as evidence in court. Forensics experts are building chemical profiles of popular fragrances in a lab (pictured) to help them identify scents left on clothing and items touched by offenders. They hope that by building up a 'scent profile' of the person behind a crime, it can help to narrow down lists of suspects and even be used as evidence in court . Alison Davidson, a researcher at Staffordshire University's department of forensic and crime science, is leading the work in the hope that it can be used by police forensics teams. She said: 'Suspects can be smothered in fragrance and I am trying to find chemicals that can give some extra information. 'You can get quite a complex mixture of different personal care products that can be used together to narrow down a list of suspects or build up a picture of a perpetrator. 'For example, Chanel No 5 is famous for using a particular aldehyde, so if I can see components that are typical of Chanel it might be possible to say a suspect comes from a certain socio-economic background. Similarly Lynx tends to be used by younger men. Experts from Staffordshire University said there is a complex mixture of different personal care products that can be used together to narrow down a list of suspects. For example, Chanel No 5 (left) uses a particular aldehyde and could reveal details of a person's background.Lynx (right) tends to be used by younger men . Lead researcher Alison Davidson said: 'Scent evidence is never going to be as robust as DNA evidence, but you can get something a lot quicker and cheaper than you can with DNA. Used together with other forensic methods it can be another piece of evidence in the puzzle - it is another tool in the toolbox' 'If we were to see some Gillette fragrances in there too, for example, then we can start to unpick a bit about who they are.' Mrs Davidson, who presented her findings to a recent meeting of the International Fragrance Association UK Fragrance Forum, is attempting to develop the technique so it can be submitted as robust evidence in court. She said samples of scents can be easily gathered from the clothing of victims or from swabs taken off hard surfaces. These can then be analysed in the laboratory for chemical signatures that match those found in beauty and personal hygiene products. Sniffer dogs have been used by police in criminal investigations for decades and are often able to identify individuals from their scent even if they have changed soaps. Forensic scientists have been attempting to replicate this by using electronic equipment that can analyse the chemical components of an odour. They hope that by identify key compounds from the sweat left behind by criminals, it can be used as evidence against them. They also hope that chemical markers in the sweat could also be used to build up lifestyle profiles of suspects, indicating whether they smoke, their diet, sex and even emotional state. Professor Richard Brereton, from Bristol University's Centre for Chemometrics, has been helping to develop a way of identifying individuals from their scent by looking at 44 compounds secreted by the human body. Another team at the University of Pennsylvania, working with Lockheed Martin, has developed a new technique for analysing odour given off in sweat, that they hope will lead to handheld devices. 'I am concentrating on what compounds we can detect and what might be significant,' she continued. 'Ultimately I am not really interested in whether the samples we get actually smell or not - I'm looking for the chemical patterns to see if they can be matched with anything.

(CNN) -- Everton scored twice late on and goalkeeper Tim Howard saved an injury-time penalty as they fought back to secure a 2-2 Premier League home draw with Tottenham on Sunday. Jermain Defoe gave the visitors the lead soon after the interval when nipping in front of Tony Hibbert to convert Aaron Lennon's cross at the near post for his 13th goal of the season. And they doubled their advantage soon after when defender Michael Dawson headed home a Niko Kranjcar corner. But Everton got a foothold back in the game when Seamus Coleman's run and cross was converted by fellow-substitute Louis Saha in the 78th minute. And Tim Cahill rescued a point for the home side with four minutes remaining when he stooped low to head home Leighton Baines' bouncing cross. However, there was still further drama to come when Hibbert was penalized for crashing into Wilson Palacios in the area. However, England striker Defoe smashed his penalty too close to Howard and the keeper pulled off a fine save to give out-of-form Everton a morale-boosting point. The result means Tottenham remain in fourth place, behind north London rivals Arsenal, while Everton have now won just one of their last nine league games. In the day's other match, Bobby Zamora scored the only goal of the game as Fulham beat Sunderland 1-0 to move up to eighth place in the table.

A Tory MP caught playing a computer game during a meeting in Parliament is to escape punishment – but the whistleblower who exposed him could lose their job. Nigel Mills admitted having a ‘game or two’ of Candy Crush and promised not to do it again after footage emerged of him playing on his taxpayer-funded iPad. But while he will face no further action, the person who filmed him looks likely to lose their job after Commons authorities launched a mole hunt to find the culprit. Caught in the act: This is Tory MP Nigel Mills playing Candy Crush on his taxpayer-funded iPad last Monday during a crucial committee hearing on the future of pensions . A Commons spokesman said the footage, taken over Mr Mills’ shoulder, broke parliamentary rules. ‘This was a breach of the filming rules for House of Commons Committee Rooms, and will be investigated by the Serjeant at Arms,’ the spokesman said. Mr Mills, the MP for Amber Valley in Derbyshire, was supposed to be listening to experts give evidence at a meeting of the Commons Work and Pensions Committee last Monday. However, he spent much of the two-and-a-half-hour meeting closely studying his iPad and swiping the screen as he tried to complete levels of the popular game. Distracted: The MP for Amber Valley in Derbyshire was spotted closely studying his iPad and swiping the screen with his finger as he attempted to complete levels of popular app the Candy Crush Saga . Could one of these be the Candy Crush whistleblower? Footage shows these two people were alternately sitting behind the MP - although it is possible the incident was filmed by someone hidden from view . Mr Mills, 40, who is defending a majority of just 536, apologised unreservedly for falling ‘short of what is expected of a Member of Parliament’. He had initially said he would merely ‘try’ not to be diverted by the game again, but yesterday afternoon in a statement he said: ‘I guarantee it will not happen again. It is a fantastic privilege to represent Amber Valley and I hope constituents will continue to support my campaigns.’ Footage of the committee meeting shows a male and a female sound technician sitting behind Mr Mills who both appear to be using mobile phones, but it is not clear if one of them was responsible for filming him or whether another person off camera captured his gaming on film. MP Nigel Mills was seen enjoying a game of Candy Crush on his iPad during a hearing in Parliament . Commons rules state that: ‘No one should photograph, film or sketch or have their voice recorded anywhere within the Parliamentary Estate without permission. ‘Anyone who attempts to do so, or to market, publish or transmit such material will be referred to Black Rod or the Serjeant at Arms. This could prejudice their future admission to the Houses of Parliament.’ Yesterday pictures emerged of Mr Mills – who was one of 90 MPs given expensive iPads as part of an agreement to use less paper in meetings – using his iPad in three other Commons committee meetings in the past month. Addictive: Candy Crush is incredibly popular - with more than 700 million games played on mobile devices . Gail Dolman, a Labour councillor in his constituency, said: ‘I think it’s disgusting. He’s an MP and I find it very worrying.’ But David Cameron – himself a self-confessed games addict – described him as a hardworking MP. ‘I know him well, he fights very hard in his constituency for people in Derbyshire, he works very hard in Parliament,’ the Prime Minister said. ‘I’m sure he will be embarrassed and he will work even harder in the future.’ Mr Cameron previously admitted to being addicted to mobile games Fruit Ninja and Angry Birds. Asked what level the PM had reached on Candy Crush, his spokesman said: ‘On that line of questioning, Game Over.’ Tory MP Graham Evans, who was sitting next to Mr Mills, said he had not noticed him playing the game during the meeting. He said: ‘We all look at our iPads. Perhaps we should all pay more attention. Nigel played a full part in that meeting, he is a bright lad.’ Sir Edward Leigh, Tory MP for Gainsborough, suggested critics should ‘get a life’. ‘I survived nine years as chairman of the Public Accounts Committee and I just about managed not to go to sleep and not to play computer games but my God, it was boring.’ he told the BBC. ‘So if Nigel has to keep himself awake by playing computer games, good on him.’ The Prime Minister admitted that he found Angry Birds 'addictive' and is said to love Fruit Ninja on the iPad . David Cameron is likely to be furious that one of his MPs got caught playing games at work - although the Prime Minister himself is known to a fan of 'chillaxing' on his iPad. The Prime Minister, a fan of Apple's trendy tablet computer, is said to be obsessed with the cult game Fruit Ninja, in which players swipe their fingers across a screen to slice through moving images of pieces of melon, orange and pineapple. Mr Cameron is thought to have taken up Fruit Ninja after completing the hit game Angry Birds. In a separate interview the Prime Minister admitted that he found Angry Birds 'addictive', but denied it was taking up too much of his time. He said: 'It is quite addictive, but I want to reassure you I don't spend a huge amount of time on it. 'Sometimes on these long flights, when you have done all your  work, you have had all your conversations and prepared all your speeches, you need something to relax with. 'Sometimes I watch a bit of television, sometimes I play a bit of Angry Birds.' A book published in 2012 revealed how the Prime Minister liked to wind down away from work. It was said that Mr Cameron's friends gave him a karaoke machine, which is now at No 10 and he invites friends over for game of snooker. There is a machine that fires tennis balls, which he has nicknamed 'the Clegger' after his victorious battle against the Deputy Prime Minister in the 2010 General Elections. The book, Cameron: Practically a Conservative, serialised in The Times told how Mr Cameron flicks through the papers early on a Sunday morning and spends his time at his computer. His afternoon consists of 'a crap film on telly, play with the children, cook, have three or four glasses of wine with lunch, have an afternoon nap, play tennis,' according to a friend quoted in the newspaper. Michael Gove, the Education Secretary and a family friend, told the authors: 'He is the model of how to have a clear divide between the world of work and then relaxation so you can clear your mind. There are very few people who have such a finely developed capacity to do that.'
Nigel Mills was supposed to be listening to pensions experts give evidence . Instead he was playing wildly popular touchscreen game Candy Crush . He said: 'There was a bit of the meeting that I wasn't focusing on and I probably had a game or two' Mr Mills used his taxpayer-funded iPad, paid for to help him with work . Whistleblower could be expelled from Parliament after leaking pictures . Two people sat behind him but the person could have been off camera . David Cameron enjoys game of Angry Birds or Fruit Ninja away from work . He said: 'I haven't spoken to Nigel. But I'm sure he is very embarrassed'

They have become an essential part of everyday life, replacing everything from our TV to our games console. Yet analysts warn be may finally be tiring of constantly having to upgrade our smartphones - and say sales are set to drop dramatically. Growth in global smartphone shipments will fall sharply this year and keep slowing through 2018, with average prices dropping significantly as demand shifts to China and other developing countries, according to market research firm IDC. The end of an era? Annual smartphone sale growth in 2014 is expected to be 19.3 percent and then decline to 6.2 percent in 2018, IDC said in a report. According to the IDC report: . Android will maintain its reign as the leading operating system throughout IDC's forecast. iOS will remain the clear number 2 platform behind Android. Apple has maintained a tight focus on the high end of the market with its most current devices, a trend we expect to see continue into the future. Windows Phone stands to grow the fastest among the leading smartphone operating systems, with continued support from Nokia as well as the addition of new Windows Phone partners.BlackBerry will be under constant attack from the competition. Its higher-than-average prices compared to other platforms could inhibit its growth potential. Annual growth in 2014 is expected to be 19.3 percent and then decline to 6.2 percent in 2018, IDC said in a report. That follows a 39.2 percent jump in 2013 when smartphone shipments topped 1 billion units for the first time. The forecast reinforces concerns on Wall Street that the explosion in smartphones that began with Apple's iPhone in 2007 is coming to an end, at least in the United States and other developed countries where consumers favor pricey, top-tier handsets. Smartphone growth in North America and Europe is expected to shrink to single digits and Japan could even see a slight slowdown in shipments in the next few years, IDC said. Manufacturers are increasingly focusing on China where many consumers are upgrading from basic cellphones to smartphones selling for under $300. 'In North America we see more than 200 million smartphones in active use, not to mention the number of feature phones still being used,' said Ryan Reith of IDC. '2014 will be an enormous transition year for the smartphone market. 'Not only will growth decline more than ever before, but the driving forces behind smartphone adoption are changing. 'New markets for growth bring different rules to play by and 'premium' will not be a major factor in the regions driving overall market growth.' The average selling price for smarpthones last year was $335, already far below flagship devices like the iPhone 5S or Samsung Galaxy S4, and will fall to $260 by 2018, IDC said. 'In order to reach the untapped demand within emerging markets, carriers and OEMs will need to work together to bring prices down,' said Ramon Llamas, Research Manager with IDC's Mobile Phone team. 'Last year we saw a total of 322.5 million smartphone units ship for under $150 and that number will continue to grow going forward. 'We've already seen numerous smartphone announcements targeting this priceband this year, with some as low as $25. 'Just as the dynamics have changed for overall smartphone growth, so have the dynamics for smartphone pricing in the markets where continued growth is expected. 'Not all vendors will want to get into this space, but those that do must make deliberate choices about their strategies in order to succeed.'

Istanbul (CNN) -- A leader of Turkey's ruling party held out the possibility of a vote on what to do with the Istanbul park where planned razing triggered two weeks of anti-government protests but said demonstrators must leave the park. "The Turkish government will not accept Gezi Park protests to be continued forever," Huseyin Celik, deputy chairman of Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's AK Party, said after meetings with a delegation of "popular artists" involved with the demonstrations. His comments were carried by the semi-official Anadolou News Agency. Celik said the government could hold a referendum on the redevelopment of the park, the last green space in central Istanbul -- but he urged the demonstrators to "walk out." At least one protester immediately rejected the idea of a vote. "We do not think that a referendum is the right way to go because we think that this park should remain as a park because it's our right, and rights should not be asked in a referendum," said Imre Azem. The meetings took place a day after riot police used massive amounts of tear gas, water cannons and stun guns to break up protests in Istanbul's Taksim Square. Police also shot tear gas canisters into nearby Gezi Park, violating a promise not to do so. Leaders of the protests skipped Wednesday's talks. One of them, Eyup Muhcu, said those attending the meeting are friendly with Erdogan's government. Meanwhile, thousands of lawyers marched out of their offices in several cities to rally against the arrests of attorneys in the protests. With no sign of negotiations on the horizon, Turkey, a NATO ally with a democratically elected government, could see fighting grip more of the country. And harsh actions against protesters could strain Erdogan's strategic friendships with much of the West -- relationships that are particularly critical in light of the civil war ravaging Turkey's neighbor, Syria. "The real challenge for the government of Turkey, as now the international focus is on this crisis: How do they get the people behind me to agree to go home?" CNN's Nick Paton Walsh reported Wednesday from outside Gezi Park, seat of the demonstrations. "That requires compromise, conciliation." On Wednesday morning, Paton Walsh saw someone being taken out of the park on a stretcher. But things were calm in the area, with morning rain having washed away some of the debris from events the night before. Traffic in the major square was nearly back to normal. While police were in position, they looked relaxed, CNN's Arwa Damon reported. Police worked to dismantle barricades that demonstrators in the square have used as they've battled police in recent days. In Ankara, street skirmishes broke out between protesters and police, who fired tear gas. Reporters released . The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation reported Wednesday that two of its reporters detained by police were released. Sasa Petricic and Derek Stoffel were held all day after being picked up earlier on Wednesday, CBC said. Earlier, the network said it had been in contact with them, and they said they were "OK." Canadian Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird has expressed concern to Turkey's ambassador, the CBC reported. Turks living in Macedonia, Kosovo, Bulgaria and Albania who support Erdogan plan rallies of their own Friday, Anadolu reported. Opinion: Past and future collide in Turkey clashes . But the anti-Erdogan protests show no sign of abating. What began in late May as a demonstration focused on the environment -- opposition to a plan to build a mall in Gezi Park -- has evolved into a crusade against Erdogan that's spread around the country. Attorneys in Istanbul, Ankara and other cities gathered in front of government buildings for rallies, CNN Turk reported. Some called on Istanbul's chief prosecutor to resign. Government officials, however, insisted that while peaceful protests are allowed, those who use violence were being detained. "If these people have objections to the government's project for Gezi Park and Taksim Square, they are welcome and we can listen to their ideas. Such issues can be settled through dialogue and within the framework of the law, not resorting to violence," President Abdullah Gul told reporters. Erdogan's government has no problem with ecologists who started protests to save Gezi Park from bulldozers but takes action against Marxist extremists, who have lobbed rocks and Molotov cocktails at police, said Ibrahim Kalin, the prime minister's chief adviser, referring to the latter as "troublemakers." "Anywhere in the world, they will not be considered peaceful protesters," Kalin told CNN's Christiane Amanpour on Tuesday. He said some were associated with a group that carried out an attack on the U.S. Embassy in Ankara in February. The police reaction has been no different from that of security forces' methods against similar groups at Occupy Wall Street protests in the United States, he insisted. "The police obviously have the mandate to establish public order," Kalin said, just like they do in Spain, Sweden and Britain. Letters from Turkey, with pride . International criticism . Experts and human rights groups say Erdogan's government lags when it comes to human rights and freedom of expression by opponents. "Prosecutors and courts continued to use terrorism laws to prosecute and prolong incarceration of thousands of Kurdish political activists, human rights defenders, students, journalists and trade unionists," Human Rights Watch wrote in a 2013 report on Turkey. Turkish journalists are afraid to write anything critical of the government, and media companies are slapped with huge tax fines for covering uncomfortable topics. According to the Committee to Protect Journalists, Turkish authorities have targeted journalists with detention for covering the protests. Erdogan's dilemma is in how he handles those who did not elect him, said CNN's Fareed Zakaria. "He has come to believe that he speaks for all of Turkey." Why Taksim Square matters to Turks . Those who are against him are handled in "too authoritarian" a manner, Zakaria said Tuesday on Piers Morgan Live. The prime minister has said he will not back down. "They say the prime minister is harsh," Erdogan said Tuesday, referring to his detractors. "I'm sorry," he told a gathering of his own party. "The prime minister is not going to change." Erdogan is tightening his grip on power, adding authority to the office of the presidency, which he hopes to hold in coming years. Former U.S. intelligence chief John Negroponte said he believes the protests could have something to do with Erdogan's ambitions. There may be "forces joining in here, whose aim it is to prevent him from achieving his ambition of becoming the next president of the country," he told Morgan. What's driving unrest and protests in Turkey? CNN's Ivan Watson, Nick Paton Walsh, Gul Tuysuz and Arwa Damon reported from Istanbul; Josh Levs, Ben Brumfield and Greg Botelho reported from Atlanta.

(CNN) -- Six of the seven college students killed in a massive house fire Sunday morning in Ocean Isle Beach, North Carolina, attended the University of South Carolina, a university official said Sunday. "This is a very sad day for the University of South Carolina family," Dennis A. Pruitt, the vice president for student affairs, told reporters. The seventh fatality is believed to be a Clemson University student, he said. The six survivors -- who were treated and released from Brunswick Community Hospital -- are also USC students, he said. Pruitt said the bodies were being sent to Chapel Hill, North Carolina, for identification. Watch home video showing the house in flames » . "It is difficult to ascertain exactly who was in the house and who was not," Pruitt said, explaining that several area houses were filled with college students visiting for the weekend. Newspaper deliveryman Tim Burns was aghast when he first saw the inferno early Sunday morning. He tried to approach the door but the flames were too intense, he told the Associated Press. "When I was going up to the entryway, you could hear the windows above me explode," Burns said. "When I knew the flames had taken over, I don't think I've ever felt as helpless in my life." The USC students were affiliated with the Delta Delta Delta sorority and the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity, Pruitt said, although he stressed that the weekend was not an official Greek function. "It just so happens, as on many university campuses, that certain sororities and certain fraternities hang around together," he said. One person described as "unaccounted for" was later confirmed dead, Ocean Isle Beach Mayor Debbie Smith told CNN. "We suffered a terrible tragedy at Ocean Isle this morning," Smith said in a news conference. "Nothing like this has ever happened at Ocean Isle Beach, and we hope it never will again." She said officials had not yet contacted all the victims' families, and that they were not yet releasing their names. The mayor said one of the 13 people in the house was related to the house's owner. Smith said the house was fully "engulfed" in flames around 7 a.m. when the fire department arrived on the scene, about five minutes after the fire department was notified. She said the house had working smoke detectors, AP reported. Officials are investigating the cause of the fire, Smith said. "We ran down the street to get away," Nick Cain told the AP. The University of North Carolina student was staying at a house about 100 feet away. Some of his friends had met several people staying at the house that burned down. "The ash and the smoke were coming down on us. We were just trying to get away," Cain told the AP. Ocean Isle Beach is a popular resort destination along the southern coast of North Carolina. The 7-mile-long island's year-round population is about 425, while the summer season population is about 25,000, according to the town's Web site. E-mail to a friend .
Six of seven dead in fire were University of South Carolina students . Official: Six treated at hospital and released were also USC students . Mayor Debbie Smith said one of 13 at house is related to owner of house . Victims' names not being released until families are notified .

By . Daily Mail Reporter . Veteran cabbie Gene Salomon has seen it all -- encounters with the mafia, lovesick couples, and even Leonardo DiCaprio. Salomon, who has worked as a taxi driver for 36 years, told The New York Post that despite the lack of job benefits, he gets personal fulfillment from the stories he collects on the job. 'I have more stories than the Empire State Building,' he said. Salomon's stories, including his run-in with Leonardo DiCaprio, are to be released in his memoir 'Confessions of a Taxi Driver' on January 28. In it, he recalls meeting the future Titanic star and 'king of the world.' Gene Salomon, pictured, has been a New York cabbie since 1977 . Salomon told the Post that in 1996, DiCaprio hopped into his cab, asking 'Don't you know who I am?' When Salomon said he didn't, he says DiCaprio rattled off a string of films he starred in -- and the two hit it off as he drove the young star to a nightclub. Salomon has fond memories of the star, and says he asked 'Who was the biggest celebrity tipper you ever had in your cab?' Salomon allegedly told him John McEnroe gave him double the meter price -- and was shocked to see DiCaprio one-up him. 'Well,' DiCaprio reportedly said. 'I'm gonna give you triple the meter!' Salomon told the paper he's had 114 celebrity clients over the years -- including Lauren Bacall, Sean Penn, Dennis Hopper. He was even lucky enough to have two cab rides with Paul Simon. Salomon reportedly told the singer 'I want you to buy the Yankees.' 'Me? You want me to buy the Yankees?' Simon said, the paper reports. 'I don't have that kind of money. You should talk to McCartney.' Salomon says he's encountered 114 big-name clients during his 36 years on the job, including Leonardo DiCaprio . Salomon also recalls many other stories -- including couples attempting to have sex in the back of his cab. 'With me, I do find it offensive, but my level of resentment seems to depend on the way the passenger goes about it [...] I do get annoyed if they’re pretending I’m not even there,' he told the Post. Salomon says one couple leaving the Bowery Hotel attempted to have sex in his cab -- only to be spotted by a female police officer. Though the couple initially ignored her warnings, they eventually stopped when she yelled, 'Hey, you, lady in the taxi -- get off that guy right now!' Salomon told the Post. Salomon also told the paper he's even had a run-in with the mob during the height of the Pizza Connection trial -- when two men speaking Italian and English hopped into his car, asking to be driven to the airport. He says the two men were very eager to hear the radio, describing the trial. 'It was then I realized where I had picked them up — Foley Square, the very place where all the courthouses were located,' Salomon told the Post. 'And they had gotten into my cab at 4 p.m., the time of day when a trial would be recessing. And they had told me that they make this trip to Chicago every Friday. They were going back home for the weekend until the trial picked up again the following Monday!' 'I knew at this moment as well as I could ever know that these guys sitting five feet behind me were card-carrying members of the mob,' he continued. Salomon said that though the men only gave him a 10 percent tip, he wasn't going to fight it. 'What could I say besides, “Have a good flight"?' Salomon also says he's seen many couples have sex in the backseat of his car...to the dismay of law enforcement .

Blocking out the sun: A bushfire burns near Ouse, north of Hobart, Tasmania, Australia . More than 100 people are missing in catastrophic bushfires that are ravaging the Australian island of Tasmania. Some 1,000 people were rescued by boat from the east coast after fires cut off roads, but police say they hold 'grave fears' for a number of residents who stayed to defend their homes but have not been heard from. It comes amid the hottest temperatures ever recorded on the island, peaking at 41.8C (107F) on Friday. As fires continued to burn yesterday, police and rescue experts began the grim search for bodies in the worst-hit towns of Boomer Bay, where 65 properties were lost, and Dunalley, both in the south-east of the island. The Queen and Prince Charles have sent messages of sympathy to those who have lost homes. Emergency services have been searching burned-out vehicles and homes in the towns worst hit by the wildfires, which began on Thursday and have been fanned by strong winds. More than 40 fires are still raging on the island as a result of the fiercest heatwave to hit Australia in more than a decade.

It's not unusual for visitors to Las Vegas to end up in an embarrassing situation - but the plight of one British tourist became much worse after his drunken antics were uploaded to YouTube. The young Liverpudlian was found by police wandering around the Strip wearing nothing but a pair of shorts and in need of a helping hand to find his hotel room. Unfortunately for the man, who gave his name only as 'Steven', the officers were being filmed for an American reality show named Vegas Strip, which airs on cable network TruTV. Scroll down to watch the video . Busted: Police have been filmed apprehending a drunk Liverpudlian tourist on the Las Vegas Strip . Confused: The man, named Steven, was evidently having difficulty getting back to his hotel room . In the clip, which has had around 75,000 hits since being uploaded to YouTube, the over-excited tourist is shown being approached by two local cops as he tries to get back to his hotel. He is shirtless, wearing only a pale blue pair of shorts with sunglasses and trainers. The friendly officers ask him, 'How you doing?', and he shocks them by replying: 'Have you got some beef?' Much of what he says is subtitled for the U.S. audience, due to his thick Scouse accent and slurred words. Helping hand: The Scouser was subtitled in footage which appeared on cable network TruTV . Escorted: The tourist was helped back to his hotel room but would not reveal who he was holidaying with . Steven tells the police his name, saying he is 'from a place called the UK', and adding that he has been walking through a lot of car parks. One smiling officers asks him: 'Let me guess, you’ve been drinking?' He replies: 'I'm sorry, I'm drunk, I am drunk. I've got no excuse. I'm trying to go home to bed.' As he digs out his hotel room key for the police to help him home, one officer jokes: 'How long did it take you to get that Weekend at Bernie's walk down pat?' Steven asks if the police have been following him, and when they say they have he replies: 'Nah, I was undercover, you couldn’t have spotted me. I thought I was camouflaged.' Arrest me! The man asked to be handcuffed because he said he 'doesn't like surprises' Friendly: The police assured Steven he had done nothing wrong and shook his hand as they departed . When a hotel employee emerges to help take him back to his room, the officers ask who he is on holiday with so they can look up his room number. However, he responds: 'I'm sorry sir, I'm not willing to give that name. Out of respect for my friends, I can't give them in.' They assure him that 'no one's in trouble', but the confused tourist says: 'I've seen documentaries and these jails scare me, Las Vegas jails scare me.' When the hotel confirms his room number, the police try to send him on his way - but he refuses to believe that they will not arrest him. He holds out his arms to be handcuffed, saying: 'I'd rather give you my hands than you pounce on me. I don't like surprises.' Instead, the officers shake hands with him and insist that he go back to his room to sleep it off. One of the policemen then tells the camera: 'He was enjoying Vegas - maybe a little bit too much.'

By . Chris Hastings . TV chef Lorraine Pascale’s adoptive mother tried to strangle and suffocate her when she was a little girl - and thought of hurling her under the wheels of a lorry. The star has discovered she was placed on the at-risk register aged three because her adoptive mother told social workers she feared she might kill her. Adopted by a white family at 18 months, the former model never knew why she was subsequently separated from her adoptive mother at the age of eight and placed into emergency foster care. But the presenter, 41, has learned how a desperate Audrey Woodward, reeling from a broken marriage, warned Oxfordshire social services the little girl’s life was in danger. Scroll down for video . Horror: The adoptive mother of TV chef Lorraine Pascale (pictured) tried to strangle and suffocate her when she was a little girl - and thought of hurling her under the wheels of a lorry . A horrified Pascale uncovered details of the abuse while making a BBC documentary on fostering. The star, who says she cannot recall the incidents, said: ‘To learn I was on the at-risk register from 1976 was enlightening, daunting and sad.’ In the documentary, Pascale is left sickened by files detailing conversations between her adoptive mother and officials. She is lost for the words when she comes across a passage in which Woodward, who had a son of her own, told officials she had considered throwing Lorraine under a lorry. The first memo, dated 1976 and referring to Pascale as a child at risk, states: ‘Mother is worried about the pressure building up and feels like she is about to take it out on adopted daughter. 'She said she had exploded and smacked the children very hard but knew she was particularly heavy handed with Lorraine. Worry: Audrey Woodward (pictured) struggled to look after Lorraine Pascale when her marriage broke down. She grew increasingly concerned at how heavy-handed she was becoming . ‘She had always been confused about her feelings towards the child and quoted an incident when she was walking with Lorraine and a large lorry was travelling in their direction and she had looked at the wheels and thought if she pushed Lorraine under them it would solve all her problems. Concern: Lorraine Pascale (pictured) was placed on at-risk register aged three by worried social workers . ‘Although she has not been drinking for over two months, she is afraid if she had a drink she would not know where to stop and could not control her feelings.’ Another note, dated 1981, states: ‘The mother was in an agitated state and demanded that we take her daughter into care as she could not stand her any longer. 'She said she dreaded the school holidays and was sure she would do Lorraine some damage. ‘She said she had already tried to strangle her and suffocate her and had hit her before she went to school this morning. 'She said the only way she could keep from hitting Lorraine was to keep her locked in her bedroom.’ In the programme, the star describes the contents of the file as ‘devastating’ and leaves the room to escape the cameras. She has subsequently been reunited with her adoptive mother, now 80 and suffering from dementia. The chef says during the documentary that she believes more should have been done to help her adoptive mother, who was a nurse caught in the aftermath of a broken marriage. Lorraine Pascale: Fostering And Me will be shown on BBC Two on Tuesday, June 17.

By . Mark Prigg . It is certainly a unique sight, and one that could, it is claimed, save thousands of lives. A bicycle with a giant set of light up cat's whiskers if the latest gadget aiming to make cyclist's lives safer. They can be used to warn other road users a cyclist is approaching, let drivers know exactly how much space is needed, and even twitch to indicate a turn. Scroll down for video . The life-saving whiskers: The strands of smart material can extend to mark space, and twitch when the user wants to turn . The four whiskers can change their configuration, allowing the cyclists to signal their intentions. Controlled by a button on the handlebars, the four long whiskers on the Vibrasee can flick fully outward, discouraging a car from squeezing by. Reflective stripes make each whisker stand out even more. When a cyclist wants to turn, they can flick the whiskers on one side in the right direction and flash lights inside as a signal. Called VibriSee, the whiskers were invented by students at California State University-Long Beach. 'When you’re in the middle of the street with cars, what tends to happen is drivers see the space around you and they’ll attempt to pass,' Channing Shattuck, who worked on the design for the Vibrasee with five fellow students, told Fastco. 'It’s dangerous for the cyclist, and dangerous for the car if there’s oncoming traffic. But what if we could expand the bike to look bigger, so cars don't try to go around?' The four whiskers can change their configuration, allowing the cyclists to signal their intentions. Controlled by a button on the handlebars, the four long whiskers on the Vibrasee can flick fully outward, discouraging a car from squeezing by. Reflective stripes make each whisker stand out even more. When a cyclist wants to turn, they can flick the whiskers on one side in the right direction and flash lights inside as a signal. The whiskers can glow at night, and when they are needed to act as turn indicators . 'Cycling as a form of transportation is a growing alternative to fossil-fuel powered vehicles, but as cycling grows more popular each year, cities like Long Beach are implementing initiatives to develop their infrastructure in order to accommodate this exploding demographic,' the students wrote. 'By interviewing various members of the Long Beach bicycle community, we were able to determine three main concerns: communication of a bicyclist’s intentions, increased visibility both day & night, and proper allocation of space when sharing the road.' The team then spent time at zoos and animal parks to look at how nature approached the problem. 'By visiting various biomes within our city and with the help of university biologists, we identified several animals that have evolved attributes with the potential to solve these concerns - namely peacocks, ctenophores, and rodents. 'Using their unique traits, we designed VibriSee, a mountable bicycle accessory that sports flexible, illuminated whiskers. 'These luminescent tendrils provide the user with several opportunities,' the researchers say. 'First, they exponentially increase visibility of the cyclists both day and night through a combination of both fluorescent bands and stripes of emitted light. 'Second, these four whiskers can change their configuration, allowing the cyclists to signal their intentions. 'Finally, VibriSee empowers the cyclist with the ability to indicate their spatial zone by flaring their whiskers and flashing warning colors.' The project was part of the Biomimicry Student Design Challenge, which asked design students to take inspiration from local ecology to tackle a transportation issue.

By . Fiona Macrae . Scientists have programmed a computer to read people’s dreams. They claim their invention, the ‘dream catcher’ is 60 per cent accurate. The level of detail is still far from that in the Leonardo DiCaprio film Inception, in which people manipulate people’s dreams and steal their sleeping thoughts. Scientists have programmed a computer to read people's dreams, and it is 60 per cent accurate. The level of detail is still far from that in the Leonardo DiCaprio film Inception, in which people manipulate people¿s dreams and steal their sleeping thoughts . However, experts have described the work, detailed in the respected journal Science, as ‘stunning’. They added that just a few years ago such a feat would have been firmly in the realms of Star Trek, at best. The Japanese scientists began by scanning the brains of three volunteers as they slept in an MRI machine. Every six or seven minutes, they were prodded awake and asked to describe any dream they’d been having. The study has been described as 'stunning in its detail and success' The process was repeated until each participant had recounted at least 200 dreams. One drowsy man told the researchers: ‘From the sky, I saw something like a bronze statue, a big bronze statue. ‘The bronze statue existed on a small hill.  Below the hill, there were houses, streets and trees.’ Another volunteer said: ‘I hid a key in a place between a chair and a bed and someone took it.’ The descriptions were analysed and the key themes for each participant placed into twenty categories. Examples of categories include men, women, tools, books and cars. Next, the volunteers, who were by now wide awake, were shown photos corresponding to things from the categories and their brains scanned once more. A computer programme quickly learnt to pick out the brain activity ‘signatures’ for each category. In the final part of the experiment, the computer put its knowledge to use, by trying to decode the brain scans of the volunteers as they slept once more. Amazingly, the computer identified the sort of images being dreamt about 60 per cent of the time. This is far higher than would occur due to chance alone, says researcher Yukiyasu Kamitani, of ATR Computational Neuroscience Laboratories in Kyoto. Some neuroscientists said that the volunteers were sleeping so lightly during the study that they weren’t technically dreaming. According to American imaging experts, convicts showing low activity in an area of the brain associated with decision-making and action are more likely to be arrested again. A  group of 96 male prisoners underwent MRI scans shortly before they were due to be released, while they were carrying out computer tasks in which subjects had to make quick decisions and inhibit impulsive reactions.The researchers used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to focus on activity in a section of the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) -  a small region in the front of the brain involved in motor control and executive functioning. They then followed the subjects for four years. Among the ex-criminals studied, those who had lower ACC activity during the quick-decision tasks were more likely to be arrested again after getting out of prison. But the researchers believe that the dreaming of deep sleep may be very similar. US neuroscientist and dream expert Dr Robert Stickgold, from Harvard Medical School in Boston, said we are still far from having a machine that can fully read our dreams. But, despite this, he described the study as ‘stunning in its detail and success’. He told Science: ‘This is probably the first real demonstration of the brain basis of dream content.’ Dr Stickgold said the research proved, for the first time, that when people describe their dreams they are at least close to being accurate. ‘Up until this moment, there were no grounds on which to say we don't just make up our dreams when we wake up.’ He added that in future, the technique could be used to help us remember forgotten dreams. Similar technology has been used in rudimentary mind-reading of people when they are awake.
The ‘dream catcher’ is 60 per cent accurate, tests have revealed . Likened to film Inception, in which people manipulate people’s dreams . Specially programmed computer picked images dreamt about 60% of time .

A former mayor and his wife accused of the murder of 43 trainee teachers were the stars of one of the world's biggest carnivals before they were incinerated. Effigies of Jose Luis Abarca, former mayor of Iguala, Mexico, and his wife Maria de los Angeles Pineda, were set ablaze in a ceremony to get rid of evil spirits and ill feelings. The couple are currently in jail after they were charged with the kidnapping of 43 trainee teachers in Iguala last September. It is believed they ordered corrupt police to arrest the students and hand them over to gangsters. None of the students have been seen since. Scroll down for video .

Jose Luis Abarca (right), former mayor of Iguala, and his wife Maria de los Angeles (left), are currently in jail after being charged with the kidnapping of 43 trainee teachers . The scandal has rocked Mexico, which is fighting a long-running war against criminal cartels who control the flow of drugs to the lucrative U.S. market north of the border. So when the time came for organisers of the International Mazatlan Carnival to choose a figure for its annual Quema del Mal Humor (Bad Mood Burning) ritual on Saturday, their decision had practically been made for them. The climax of the ritual is the incineration of a giant puppet, usually modelled after a public figure. 'Think massive exploding piñata on steroids,' says one tourism website. Organisers of the carnival in Sinaloa, which is listed as one of the world's top three by Forbes, chose the couple because they represented the most evil people locals could think of. Director of Culture of Mazatlan, Raul Rico Gonzalez, said: 'They were chosen because they epitomised the new political masters who enriched themselves regardless of the cost to the welfare and indeed the lives of others.' Crowds cheered as the effigies burst into flames, spewing fireworks at the climax of Saturday night's ritual. Abarca and Pineda were tracked down last November to a squalid flat in Mexico City. They went on the run when suspicion turned on them over the disappearance of 43 student teachers. The students vanished after they were taken into custody by police. It is alleged that police handed them over to a local drug gang controlled by Pineda, a scion of a Mexican crime family.

Magic night: The carnival in Mazatlan has been going for 117 years and has many traditions . Tourism: The five-day event draws plenty of travellers who come to see the exotic sights of Mexico . Attorney General Jesus Murillo Karam said the cartel's leader, Sidronio Casarrubias Salgado, describes Pineda as 'the main operator of criminal activities in Iguala'. She allegedly believed the students had come to town to disrupt a speech she was going to make, but it has since been claimed they were merely passing through on their way to Mexico City. They were apparently set to attend for a service in the Mexican capital in remembrance of students massacred there in 1968. The case has spurred anger across the country, and large protest marches demanding action by the government have been held in Mexico City, Acapulco and the capital of the state of Guerrero, Chilpancingo.

(CNN) -- Days of heavy rain have led to flooding in southwestern England and parts of Wales and at least one fatality, British authorities said Sunday. The UK Environment Agency posted a severe flood alert for the town of Helston, in the southwestern county of Cornwall, where the River Cober was rising over its banks, and warned towns across England and Wales to prepare for more high water. In Exeter, in neighboring Devon, a woman was killed when a tree fell on her Saturday night, the Devon and Cornwall Police Service reported. The Environment Agency said more than 800 properties have flooded since Wednesday. And the Met Office, the UK's national weather service, said more rain is forecast for the area -- but the wettest weather will be in the north. "We can expect between 30 and 40 millimeters (1 1/4 to 1 1/2 inches) of rain falling in many areas and up to 70 millimeters (2 3/4 inches) of rain in parts of northeast England, continuing the risk of further flooding and travel disruption," forecaster Eddy Carroll said in a news release. On Twitter, Prime Minister David Cameron called the scenes of flooding "shocking" and said his government would make sure "everything is being done to help." The region has seen four days of non-stop rainfall that has capped months of heavy precipitation, including the wettest April-June period on record. More than 225 areas stretching from Cornwall through the Midlands region to the northeastern coast were under flood warnings Sunday afternoon as the latest system moved through, the Environment Agency said. Officials warned residents to use the daylight to prepare for more flooding Sunday and into the early hours of Monday. CNN's Susannah Palk and Matt Smith contributed to this report.

PARIS, France (CNN) -- French Culture Minister Frederic Mitterrand said Thursday he will not resign over accounts in a book he wrote in 2005 about paying to have sex with "boys" in Thailand. Frederic Mitterrand admitted to paying for sex with "boys" in his 2005 autobiography, "The Bad Life." In an interview with French television network TF1, Mitterrand said he "absolutely condemn[s] sexual tourism, which is a disgrace, and ... pedophilia," in which he insisted he has never participated. Despite the use of the French word "garcon" in his 2005 book "The Bad Life," Mitterrand, 62, has previously said the term did not mean "little boys." He said the males he paid for sex were his age, or maybe five years younger, but not underage -- and the relations were consensual. "Anyway, you can recognize someone who's 40 years old ..." he told TF1. A 40-year-old man "doesn't look like a minor," he added, suggesting that his partners were middle-aged men. His actions, Mitterrand said, were "without a doubt, an error," but "a crime, no," he said in the interview. Despite recent calls to resign from the far-right National Front and the left-leaning Socialist Party, Mitterrand, who is openly gay, vowed to stay in his job. He said he met Thursday morning with French President Nicolas Sarkozy, and that the president supports him. In a July interview with the weekly French news magazine Le Nouvel Observateur, Sarkozy said he had read Mitterrand's book, and found it "courageous and talented." The controversy over the revelations in his book -- which he called neither autobiography nor memoir -- erupted anew after Mitterrand deplored the arrest last week of filmmaker Roman Polanski, who fled the United States in 1977 after pleading guilty to having sex with a 13-year-old girl. The culture minister told TF1 that he was "too emotional" when he denounced the filmmaker's arrest in Switzerland as "horrifying." "To see him thrown to the lions for an old story that really has no meaning, and to see him alone, imprisoned, when he was going to attend a ceremony where he was to be honored, that is to say, he was trapped, it's absolutely horrifying," he said October 4, according to Agence France Presse. The far-right National Front organized an anti-Mitterrand demonstration in Paris on Thursday evening. "Send this message on to everyone who will not put up with this indecency!" the party's Web site said. The party's vice president, Marine Le Pen, has demanded Mitterrand's resignation for what she termed his sexually deviant acts. Mitterrand responded, saying, "It's an honor to be dragged through the mud by the National Front." Mitterrand's acts of "sexual tourism" have left "a dark smudge" on the government, Le Pen said. The group is also gathering signatures on a petition, online and on paper, from those who want Mitterrand to step down. "We really hope he will resign," National Front communications director Julien Sanchez told CNN. "It's an embarrassment for our country, that our culture minister has done this. It affects our international image. It's not right," he added. Watch report on the controversy surrounding French Culture Minister Frederic Mitterand » . On the other side of the political spectrum, the left-leaning Socialist Party suggested Sarkozy should consider Mitterrand's position. "It's up to President Sarkozy to decide whether or not we can be involved in the fight against child prostitution and sexual tourism, and whether or not the acts written in an autobiography -- written by a minister -- are acts of sexual commerce," said party spokesman Benoit Hamon. "If everything is relative and Mr. Mitterrand can be excused because he's famous, well, I don't excuse his behavior," Hamon said. Martine Aubry, the leader of the Socialist Party, said she would wait until she had read the book before making any judgment. Mitterrand said on TF1 that he had had sexual relations with boys -- using the French word "garcons" -- but added, "you must not confuse pedophilia with homosexuality." He also described his book as a mixture of his life and the life of others, and denied accusations that it was a glorification of sexual tourism. The minister said he never had sex with "young boys" and denounced those who accused him of such acts, saying that maybe they were confusing their own fantasies with what the book was really about. Mitterrand told an interviewer in 2005 that assertions that he liked "little boys" were untrue. "It's because when people say 'boys' we imagine 'little boys,'" he said then. "How to explain that? It belongs to this general puritanism which surrounds us, which always makes us paint a black picture of the situation. It has nothing to do with that." Mitterrand was a television personality, not a government minister, when the book was published. It caused a stir upon its publication, as well, and has been the subject of heated debate several times since then. In one passage, published by the French newspaper Le Monde on Thursday, Mitterrand describes in detail a sexual encounter with a "boy" he said was called Bird. "My boy didn't say a word, he stood before me, immobile, his eyes still straight ahead and a half-smile on his lips. I wanted him so badly I was trembling," he wrote. Mitterrand also wrote about visiting clubs to choose young male prostitutes in Thailand -- where prostitution is illegal and sexual intercourse with a minor is statutory rape and is punishable by imprisonment. "Most of them are young, handsome and apparently unaware of the devastation that their activities could bring them. I would learn later that they didn't come every night, that they were often students, had a girlfriend and sometimes even lived with their families, who pretended not to know the source of their breadwinner's earnings," the book said. "Some of them were older and there was also a small contingent of heavier bruisers, who also had their fans. It was the artistic side of the exposition: Their presence made the youthful charm of the others stand out." He also wrote that while he had read reports and seen documentaries on the evils of "le commerce des garcons" (the boy trade) -- the misery, the piles of money from which "les gosses" (the kids) got only a few crumbs, the ravages of drugs -- "all of these rituals of the fair of the youths, the slave market, excited me enormously." "The profusion of very attractive boys, immediately available, put me in a state of desire that I no longer had to restrain or conceal." Mitterrand -- the nephew of the Socialist former president Francois Mitterrand -- joined Sarkozy's center-right government this summer. Wikipedia, the user-edited online reference Web site, has locked down Mitterrand's entry, preventing changes to it, in a possible sign of the intensity of the debate surrounding him. CNN's Jen Carswell in Paris, France and Alanne Orjoux in Atlanta, Georgia, contributed to this report.

By . Jenny Hope Medical Correspondent . PUBLISHED: . 20:23 EST, 4 November 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 08:40 EST, 5 November 2013 . Coping with a cold? Doctors believe paracetamol is the best treatment to keep on top of coughs, colds and sore throats. New research suggests paracetamol - contained in many over the counter remedies - is superior to ibuprofen, or a combination of paracetamol and ibuprofen. The widely used practice of inhaling steam to ease symptoms also offers little comfort to sufferers, according to researchers from the University of Southampton. Bless you: New research suggests paracetamol is superior to ibuprofen, or a combination of paracetamol and ibuprofen when it comes to keeping on top of colds . In addition, one in 50 people ends up with mild scalding to add to their woes. Professor Paul Little, who led the study, said 'Paracetamol, ibuprofen or a combination of both are the most common courses of treatment for respiratory tract infections. 'Clinicians should probably not advise patients to use steam inhalation in daily practice as it does not provide symptomatic benefit for acute respiratory infections and a few individuals are likely to experience mild thermal injury. Similarly, routinely advising ibuprofen or ibuprofen and paracetamol together than just paracetamol is also not likely to be effective. 'However our research has shown that ibuprofen is likely to help children, and those with chest infections.' The randomised control trial recruited 899 patients who went to their GP with respiratory tract infection symptoms such as sore throat, runny nose and a cough. They received different treatment types; paracetamol, ibuprofen or a combination of both. Patients . were then told to either take it as needed or at regular intervals of . four times a day and some were also told to take steam inhalation. Little ones: The research did show that ibuprofen is likely to help children, and those with chest infections . The research showed that patients were more likely to come back within a month with worsening symptoms or new symptoms if they were prescribed with ibuprofen or ibuprofen with paracetamol. Between 50 per cent and 70 per cent of participants in the study who were prescribed ibuprofen or ibuprofen with paracetamol came back, says a report in the British Medical Journal (must credit). In addition to sales of paracetamol tablets, the drug is available to buy in many cold and flu remedies and can be obtained on NHS prescription. Effective: Paracetamol works by blocking an enzyme in the brain and spinal cord involved in the transmission of pain . The NHS spent £61 million on paracetamol in 2011 for GPs' patients, with £20.6m going on prescriptions for ibuprofen. The two drugs work in different, but complementary ways. Ibuprofen blocks the production of various chemicals in the body, including prostaglandins which are produced in response to injury or disease and cause inflammation. Paracetamol blocks a different enzyme in the brain and spinal cord involved in the transmission of pain. Ibuprofen taken as pills or in liquid form numbs the site of pain and reduces inflammation, and is widely used for arthritic pain. It has a relatively low level of side effects, although it can cause stomach bleeding, kidney damage, allergic reactions. It should not be taken by people who are allergic to aspirin. Professor Little admitted the research findings were surprising and may mean that treatment with ibuprofen contributes to the progression of the illness. He said 'This may have something to do with the fact the ibuprofen is an anti-inflammatory. 'It is possible that the drug is interfering with an important part of the immune response and leads to prolonged symptoms or the progression of symptoms in some individuals. 'Although we have to be a bit cautious since these were surprise findings, for the moment I would personally not advise most patients to use ibuprofen for symptom control for coughs colds and sore throat.' The study was funded by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Programme Grants for Applied Research programme.

Washington (CNN) -- A coalition of liberal and progressive groups, including unions and civil rights activists, rallied in Washington Saturday to press for good jobs, immigration and education reform and to make a show of strength one month out from midterm elections. The "One Nation Working Together" rally was held at the Lincoln Memorial, just five weeks after Tea Party enthusiasts met in Washington. NAACP President Ben Jealous told CNN the "One Nation" movement is not "the alternative to the Tea Party, we're the antidote to the Tea Party." Jealous said he welcomes Tea Party members, but takes issue with extremists in the movement who critics say harbor racist views. Still, Jealous says he invited a well-known conservative to speak at Saturday's rally. He refused to name the person, who did not address the group. It was not immediately clear why. Jealous said the coalition of liberal organizations came together to offer a positive alternative to negative rhetoric, and to demand better education and more economic opportunities. The "One Nation" movement, he said, would rather see jobs for 99 percent of Americans instead of tax cuts for one percent of Americans. "We want America to be something that represents every kind of diversity in this country," said Sergio Sanchez, with the Farm Labor Organizing Committee, who attended the rally. "We're here because we want to show that we have a presence and that we want America to head in the right direction." The rally began with an Interfaith service at 11 a.m. ET. As the service started, crowds were already beginning to thicken at the National Mall near the Lincoln Memorial, where the rally took place. Rally signs range from benign to fiery. They include: "The Left is What's Right," "Stop Racism Now," We March for Hope Not Hate," "Proud to be a Democrat," "Stand with Obama," "Silence GOP Lies,""No Cuts to Social Security" and "Axis of Ignorance - Tea Party, Republicans, Fox News." Organizers claim a wide range of supporters, some of whom are already associated with liberal causes -- like union workers, environmentalists, gay activists and student leaders. But "One Nation" also claims backing from less obvious quarters -- like senior citizens, veterans and faith leaders. The group's website sets out a list of basic principles and priorities. These include direct assistance for unemployed workers and assistance for small businesses and local governments trying to hire new workers; a minimum wage increase; health care reform; immigration policy changes; increased bankruptcy and foreclosure protection; and more money for education, from kindergarten through college. The rally comes on the heels of another rally by conservatives in August. Commentator Glenn Beck drew Tea Party activists to the Lincoln Memorial for his revival-style rally August 28. The timing and site of the rally provoked controversy among civil rights activists because it was on the 47th anniversary of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech and in the same place. Around noon Saturday, a variety of speakers and performers began to take the stage. The program mixed speeches by activists and orators with music, historical readings, and even video clips. Among those who spoke was the Rev. Al Sharpton, who used the opportunity to urge people to get involved and vote in the next election. "We've got to get ready for the midterm exam. We can't stop in '08!" he said to roaring applause.

(CNN) -- South Korean striker Ji Dong-Won, who scored four goals for his country in this year's Asian Cup, has joined English Premier League club Sunderland. The 20-year-old signed a three-year contract after moving from K-League club Chunnam Dragons, who are based in the South Korean city of Gwangyang. Ji starred for his country at January's Asian Cup in Qatar, grabbing four goals to take his tally to six in 11 appearances. He follows in the footsteps of compatriot Park Ji-Sung, who has won four Premier League titles and Europe's most prestigious club competition, the Champions League, since he joined Manchester United in 2005. "I am so satisfied to be able to come to a good club, a nice club in the world's number one league," Ji told Sunderland's official web site. "I am happy because I have a chance to challenge the biggest players, and that gives me motivation. "As a striker, I like to overwhelm defenders. My aim is to help the team get as many points as possible. That is what will give me satisfaction." Sunderland coach Steve Bruce said: "The boy has been in fantastic form for both club and country and he was one of South Korea's stand-out performers at the Asian Cup, so we are delighted to bring him to Sunderland. "The Premier League is very different to the K-League, so there is hard work ahead, but you just have to look at players like Park Ji-Sung and (Bolton winger) Lee Chung-Yong to see how well Korean players are adapting to its pace and physicality." Sunderland also announced the signing of Craig Gardner from Birmingham City, who were relegated from the Premier League last season. Meanwhile, former Germany international Torsten Frings has left German club Werder Bremen to join Major League Soccer side Toronto FC. Frings claimed he was persuaded to sign for Toronto by former Germany legend Jurgen Klinsmann, who acts as an advisor for the club. "Jurgen Klinsmann telephoned me and asked me if I could imagine joining Toronto. He made me very curious," he said on his personal web site. "It's Toronto's overall appeal which swayed me -- it's a city with a great quality of life in a super country, with A full stadium, a professional environment and a vision at the club to which I can contribute in a central role." Portugal striker Nuno Gomes has joined Braga on a one-year contract after leaving Portuguese giants Benfica last month.
