By . Fiona Macrae Science Correspondent . A British businessman who lost his nose to cancer is growing a new one – in his arm. If all goes well it will eventually be removed and sewn on to his face, with experts at University College London hoping he will have feeling and a sense of smell. The new nose, the first in the world to be grown from scratch, will also look just like the 56-year-old man’s old one – slightly crooked. UCL scientist Professor Alex Seifalian, . who is behind the pioneering treatment, said: ‘His nose was a little bit . bent to the left and we asked if he wanted it straight but he said no, . he wanted it exactly the same.’ The new nose began as a glass mould, based on the original, which was sprayed with a synthetic honeycomb-like material to create a framework for stem cells to cling to. The mould was then removed and the honey- comb covered with millions of these ‘blank cells’ which, with the right nutrients, can turn into the cartilage of the nose – a process which took place at UCL in a rotating jar called a bioreactor. Meanwhile, the skin on the man’s arm was gradually stretched by a small balloon placed under the surface and inflated until it was loose enough to accommodate the nose. Professor Alex Seifalian hopes to eventually grow a whole face in the lab and says procedure could help car crash victims and wounded soldiers . Around two months ago, when the framework was ready, it replaced the balloon under the stretched skin. The new nose is now bulging out of the man’s arm, where it is acquiring networks of nerves and tiny blood vessels, as well as a covering of skin from the arm. As Professor Seifalian told BBC Focus magazine: ‘We can make the nose but we can’t make the skin.’ After at least three months there, the . nose will be removed and sewn in place on the man’s face in an . operation that should not leave any scars. The arm should return to . normal, with the skin stitched back together. The . man, who wishes to remain anonymous, had his nose removed after skin . cancer started to eat it away. Treatment to stop the tumour returning . compounded the damage, and psychological scars left him virtually . housebound. Similar patients, car crash victims and wounded soldiers could all be helped if the operation is a success. The . landmark project has echoes of a US attempt in the 1990s to grow ears . on a mouse for transplant. That failed, but there have been many . advances in science since. Professor .

They are a trademark of the Islamic State terror group. Slickly produced propaganda videos, filmed with high definition cameras. Now it has been revealed that an Australian university student is behind many of the packages broadcast around the world, which often feature barbaric threats to Westerners. In an interview with The Australian newspaper, an unnamed former electrical engineering student from Sydney said he had witnessed beheadings during his time working for the Islamic State. But he described his life as fairly typical. 'I have a job, I live in a HQ, eat, sleep, work, hope an airstrike gets me so I can be Shaheed (martyred). Pretty typical life,' he told the newspaper. Australian militants are in front of the camera and behind the scenes: Abdullah Elmir, 17, from western Sydney, has featured in IS propaganda videos and it was revealed today an unnamed Sydney man is working behind the scenes to produce the terror group's packages . Slick production values: The Islamic State has shown a penchant for producing high-quality propaganda videos, often featuring HD cameras and elaborate costuming . It is unknown who is responsible for this video, which featured former western Sydney resident Abdullah Elmir, who headed to Syria after reportedly telling his mother he was 'going fishing' Fled overseas: Bassima (centre) and Issam El Baf, the parents of (from L to R) Taha, Hamza, Bilal and Omar from Yagoona in western Sydney, have released an image of their four sons in an effort to locate them . The man was quoted saying video editing was 'kind of a hobby at first back in Australia... mostly cheap little film effects.' He stopped when he attended university, but it became a valuable skill working for the militant group in the Middle East. The young man is one of more than 70 Australians who have left for the Middle East to fight for the militant organisation. Many wannabe militants have failed to make it over there, with the Federal government cancelling more than 100 passports. One Australian militant who featured in the group's videos, so-called 'Ginger Jihadi' Abdullah Elmir, 17, declared in a propaganda broadcast in October that Islamic State would not rest until 'the black flag is flying high across every land'. The teenager vanished in June, reportedly telling his mother he was 'going fishing' - only to turn up in the propaganda video months later, surrounding by Islamic State fighters chanting loudly. Zakaria Raad, 22, also from Sydney, appeared in a recruitment video in June but died in an ambush in Syria shortly thereafter. Australian militant Zakaria Raad (left) appeared in an Islamic State propaganda video in June . Raad was killed shortly afterwards in an ambush in Syria . Professor Greg Barton, a terrorism expert from Monash University, told Daily Mail Australia it was 'quite chilling' to think many Australians living relatively ordinary lives had joined the terrorist group. 'It's all abstract, until the kid in the next suburb over is involved in doing that,' he said. Prof Barton said there has been no indication the number of citizens heading to Syria or Iraq has slowed recently. Four brothers from a western Sydney family vanished in November after telling family they were going on a trip to Thailand. They sent a text message to their sister saying: 'we will see you in Paradise.' Acclaimed German journalist Jürgen Todenhöfer, who recently spent 10 days embedded with the terror group in Mosul and Syria, said he was surprised by the hundreds of foreign fighters who have arrived from all over the world. In a detailed post on his Facebook site this wek, Todenhöfer wrote: 'The West underestimated the risk posed by IS dramatically. 'The IS fighters are much smarter and more dangerous than our leaders believe. 'In the Islamic State, there is an almost palpable enthusiasm and confidence of victory, which I have not seen in many war zones.' Prime Minister Tony Abbott this week warned security agencies have picked up 'heightened terrorist chatter' since last week's siege at the Lindt cafe in Martin Place.

By . Daily Mail Reporter . PUBLISHED: . 19:18 EST, 1 October 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 01:51 EST, 2 October 2013 . Criticism: JP Alan Bissell has claimed too many crimes are being dealt with by police caution . A magistrate who is retiring after 25 years of service has criticised the justice system for failing to properly punish criminals. Alan Bissell said JPs are now forced to place too much emphasis on rehabilitation. He also hit out at the increasing number of criminal cases which never end up in court and are instead dealt with by a caution. Speaking out on his last day as a magistrate, he explained that punishment has ‘diminished to the point where it hardly features these days’. He added: ‘Rehabilitation is washing over everything. Although it has its place, clearly, I am personally dismayed that the work of the court has diminished to the extent that it has. ‘It dismays me that so much of the work that should be before the court is being handled by the police in terms of cautions.’ He claimed serious cases were being dealt with ‘in their thousands and thousands’ every day by cautions. Mr Bissell, 70, spent most of his working life as a civil servant in London. He moved to North Wales in the 1980s and was appointed a magistrate in November 1989, sitting initially at Flint and then at Mold. He made the comments at Flintshire magistrates’ court where colleagues gathered to pay tribute to his work as a justice. In his speech he criticised successive governments that promised to get tough with sentencing but whose policies had ‘all come to naught’. Justice Secretary Chris Grayling last week said he was appalled that crimes including rape and drug dealing were being dealt with by cautions. He plans to issue new guidance that will effectively ban officers from using cautions for the most serious offences. Born in Sheen, Richmond-on-Thames, Mr Bissell spent most of his working life as a civil servant based in St James’s Square in London. Failure: Alan Bissell said too much emphasis was being placed on rehabilitation in favour of punishment . In the mid 60s and early 70s he worked in the private office of four successive Government ministers - Ray Gunter, Barbara Castle, Robert Carr and Maurice MacMillan Jnr. In the summer of 1965 he drove an authentic, privately-owned London double-decker bus across France to Basle in Switzerland. He also drove the same bus in the film ‘To Sir With Love’ with Sidney Poitier and Lulu, which was filmed in the east end of London; and also in several episodes of the TV series ‘The Persuaders’, starring Roger Moore and Tony Curtis. During his time as a magistrate, Mr Bissell dealt with some colourful cases, including a superstitious drink driver who blamed a magpie for a crash. He also told on defendant, who had crossed into Wales from Liverpool to steal whisky in 2005: ‘It is often said that we take great exception to people who come marauding across the border to thieve. ‘We are quite clear in our minds that is why you came over and why you were there. ‘We have been told it was an act of stupidity on your part. It certainly was, and you will have to be sentenced for that stupidity today.’ Mr Bissell also ordered a farmer who terrified a group of ramblers, including a blind man, with a hedge-cutter to attend a year-long anger management course. | JP claims serious cases are being dealt with in their thousands by cautions .

James Rodriguez turned out to watch some volleyball as the Real Madrid forward caught his wife Daniela Ospina playing for Los Blancos in the Spanish capital. Daniela Ospina proved James Rodriguez isn't the only one in their household with sporting prowess and still only 22, is a former beach volleyball international for Colombia. Rodriguez took his daughter along to the match having helped Real Madrid to a 2-1 win at Cordoba on Saturday to keep Carlo Ancelotti's side top of La Liga by one point from rivals Barcelona, with a game in hand.

Ospina gets ready to fire in a serve (left) and pictured with her husband James Rodriguez before the match .

(CNN) -- Less than two years ago, Myanmar's leaders were doing all they could to silence pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi. Now they're poised to welcome her into parliament. The sudden relaxation of political shackles on the Nobel laureate has raised the inevitable questions of why, and what do they want in return? One expert said Myanmar's new leaders, who were elected to power in a vote derided as a "sham" in November 2010, had tired of being ostracized by the international community. "They know that their regime as Southeast Asia's number one pariah was always a 'free kick' for anybody who wanted to bring up human rights violations," said Nicholas Farrelly, a research fellow at the Australian National University. "They always considered that their status was somehow not really deserved and that it was only through Aung San Suu Kyi's iconic pro-democracy role that they were singled out for such scrutiny and attention. Near clean sweep for Suu Kyi's party . By welcoming Aung Sun Suu Kyi back into the formal political fold, and also by trying to develop a set of institutions that are internationally legitimate, they feel that they should be able to pretty rapidly reposition themselves to become yet another Southeast Asian semi-democracy, and with that status they'd be able to enjoy all the benefits of full membership of international fora and everything that goes with that membership," Farrelly added. For almost five decades, Myanmar, a country of almost 60 million people, was ruled by a military junta that seized power in a coup in 1962. In 2011, control of the country passed to former general Thein Sein who resigned his army post to form a political party, the Union Solidarity and Development Party (USDP), to contest the 2010 vote. He won the election, which was boycotted by Suu Kyi's National League for Democracy (NLD), and later condemned as a farce. Suu Kyi: Peaceful freedom fighter . "It's pretty clear that when the early count was done in the last election the military was losing horrendously. They had almost no votes. Then suddenly it all changed and suddenly they won a horrendous number of votes, a massive majority," said Monique Skidmore, from the University of Canberra. Fast forward to 2012 and the political situation has changed dramatically. Citizens have just cast their votes in an election that included opposition parties who were even allowed the freedom to publicly campaign before the vote. "It's remarkable and very striking for those living in Myanmar to see Aung San Suu Kyi on state television station and to listen to her on the state radio for 50 minutes giving a political speech," said Jim Della-Giacoma, from the International Crisis Group, before the vote. The April 1 election has not been without alleged flaws, but Della-Giacoma said irregularities were inevitable, not least because of the country's long history of military rule. "The political environment has drastically changed and it's part of the determination of the government to show things are different now and politics are not being played the way they were back in 2010," he said. Hundreds of journalists and international monitors attended the April election, and while Suu Kyi's party claimed victory Monday in 43 of the 44 seats it contested, official results are still to be released. They are expected to confirm that the people of Myanmar want the Suu Kyi and her once-banned NLD party in parliament. While they're only expected to occupy 43 seats of 664 in a lower house still dominated by the ruling USDP, experts say being in parliament will give Suu Kyi and her colleagues an influential voice. "If you look at the dynamics of the legislature, the two houses of parliament in Naypyidaw, they're voting all over the place. She (Aung San Suu Kyi) will have a very powerful voice, she is a very high-profile figure. She has an ability to pass amendments and move the parliament," Della-Giacoma said. Myanmar's deliberate change in strategy has already reaped returns for the impoverished country. Ahead of the vote, there was talk that a decisive step towards democracy was likely to result in the lifting of embargoes imposed to pressure the country to improve human rights. "The election of Aung San Suu Kyi in a free and fair political contest would surely have to meet the criteria for getting rid of a large slab of the impositions that are currently put on the country," Farrelly said. For some countries, including the U.S. and Europe, it could take some time, Farrelly said. But for others, including Australia and Canada, the lifting of sanctions could happen relatively quickly, if it was agreed the vote was adequately free and fair, Farrelly said. Myanmar has already opened its doors to foreign delegations who have been advising the country on steps towards reform. The consultations followed several surprising moves by the government, who freed Suu Kyi from house arrest within days of being elected in 2010. President Sein's government went on to pardon hundreds of political prisoners, secure a ceasefire with Karen rebels and agree to negotiate with other ethnic rebel groups. Strict press rules were relaxed, diluting the culture of fear that had gripped the country. The confirmation of a seat in parliament for Suu Kyi would dilute that fear even further, said Skidmore. "The era of fear is going to be largely over. So the feeling that one could be arrested at any time for holding a view that is opposite to the military, that should be severely lessened at the end of this election period. To see Aung San Suu Kyi having a legitimate political presence in the country will be psychologically enormous to Burmese people," she said. After declaring victory, Suu Kyi told her cheering supporters that it wasn't her victory, but their own. "This is not our triumph, this is a triumph of the people," Suu Kyi said as she arrived at NLD headquarters in Yangon Monday. The international community has yet to react to the NLD's claims of triumph, but when it does, it is expected to have broad implications for Myanmar and its efforts to bring a once-persecuted party in from the cold. | Pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi is poised to win a seat in Myanmar's parliament .

LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- Paula Abdul is ready for another fresh start, now that she's kicked her addiction to painkillers, the "American Idol" judge told a magazine. Paula Abdul told Ladies' Home Journal that she struggled with a drug problem. The former pop star released a new song this week and will take the "American Idol" stage Wednesday night to perform it. Abdul, in an interview for the Ladies' Home Journal's June issue, acknowledged what she has denied for years -- that she had a drug problem. But last November, days after an obsessed fan apparently killed herself outside Abdul's home, she went to a health spa where weaned herself off prescription pain medications she had used for a dozen years. "Withdrawal -- it's the worst thing," she told the magazine. "I was freezing cold, then sweating hot, then chattering and in so much pain, it was excruciating. But at my very core, I did not like existing the way I had been." Watch more on Abdul's challenges » . Abdul acknowledged several years ago that she used medications to kill the pain for a series of injuries, but this is apparently her first admission she was hooked on them. When People magazine asked her about it in 2005, she chose her words carefully: . "Drugs? I'm not addicted to pills of any kind," Abdul then said. Her painkillers were, in fact, not pills. Abdul wore a patch that delivered a pain medication about 80 times more potent than morphine, she told Ladies' Home Journal. Abdul's slurring of words and apparent confusion on "American Idol" and during interviews stirred rumors of a drug problem in recent years. She told the magazine, though, she was never under the influence during a show. Her pains began with a cheerleading accident at age 17, but were compounded by later mishaps -- including a stage accident in 1991, a car wreck in 1992 and a plane crash in 1993, she said. The persistent hurting is almost gone after a 15th surgery, she said. After two short marriages, Abdul said she is still looking for a soul mate. "I'm working on finding that guy," she said. She premiered her new song -- "I'm Just Here for the Music" -- on "Idol" host Ryan Seacrest's radio show Tuesday. She told Seacrest she only decided last week to accept the invitation to perform it live on the TV show. "I was invited by the producers and I wasn't sure it I was going to do it because timing was of the essence," she said. She said she put her performance together over the weekend. Abdul's "American Idol" contract ends with this season, and she told Seacrest she did not know if she would be back to judge next season. | Paula Abdul told Ladies' Home Journal she had painkiller addiction .

Port-au-Prince, Haiti -- Horror has given way to acceptance; it can be seen on people's faces. But desperation surfaces everywhere: . In the rubble still strewn about the streets, in the steadily rising piles of garbage, in the 1,300 makeshift camps that still house so many people. Four months on, the tragedy of the massive January 12 earthquake is fresh. Relief operations thwarted widespread hunger here and so far, there have been no reports of killer disease outbreaks. But Port-au-Prince is very much running in emergency mode. Still. No humanitarian worker will argue with that sad fact. Despite the efforts and good intentions of a host of foreigners and a government that got a wake-up call, progress has been timidly slow. The future has a different meaning now for Haitians such as Edline Pierre, who worries not about where to enroll her three daughters in school but how to get them up off the floor fast enough when the rains start falling. Haiti earthquake special . She poured cement around her shack in the city's central Champs de Mars plaza. But that doesn't keep the water out or her girls safe at night. The future means getting through the night and when the sun comes back out, scrounging together a meal. On the streets, a bright spot: the sight of schoolchildren in uniforms. But only 700 of the 5,000 or so schools around the Haitian capital have opened. Some were destroyed; others are occupied by the displaced. Another welcomed sight: Hundreds of street vendors, many of whom are women, sit under a rainbow of umbrellas to sell mangoes, plantains and coconuts. Or they display a collision of goods in one basket -- shoe polish, spaghetti, shampoo, cigarettes and molasses. These are snippets of life as it was once, before that fatal day. Give us work -- not handouts . In the aftermath of what most Haitians refer to as "the catastrophe," people asked for food. They patiently lined up for hours to receive a sack of rice, a quart of oil. The lines are gone, along with the massive aid drops. International agencies are wary that too much help could stymie the local economy. Now the two million Haitians living in squalid makeshift camps -- and countless others living in the homes of generous family and friends -- need jobs. They don't want handouts; they just want money so they can feed themselves. "We are willing to work -- work hard -- for money, but we need jobs," said Joseph Cangas, a coordinator at a new camp in Corail. Some earn a few dollars here and there through work-for-cash programs. They clear debris off the streets or clean latrines in the camps. These are hardly high-quality jobs, but being employed anywhere will earn you envy. More than 100,000 Haitians found work this way. But that's only a sliver of the population. Almost four million people live in Port-au-Prince, a city designed for 250,000. Haitians lived in congested neighborhoods and shanties before the quake. Imagine those conditions compounded -- a family of six eating, sitting and sleeping in a space that's hardly bigger than the sofa in your den. When home is a place of last resort . To shield people from the potential danger of the rainy season, aid agencies have started building transitional homes and have relocated thousands to new camps on the city's perimeter. Almost 5,000 went to Corail, a stark place that evokes images of a military base in the Iraqi desert. Void of trees, the tropical sun beats down hard, and soaring temperatures make furnaces of the tents. It's not a place residents say they would choose. But this is where the government had access to land, so this is where people were brought to ride out the rains. Here, at least, they are not at risk of being washed away by torrents of water or in mudslides down steep, denuded hills. Corail has its own problems. It's far from the city, and it can cost a camp resident an astronomical $1.25 to take tap-taps, the colorful shared taxis, to central Port-au-Prince. No one at Corail could afford that journey. But they said they had to figure out a way to go where the jobs were. "We help each other. We share food," said Cangas, the camp coordinator. "But the situation is getting more tense. People have nothing so they resort to stealing sometimes." He complained about the lack of services and schools at Corail. But aid agencies don't want people to get too comfortable here. Eventually, people have to try and regain their livelihoods in the neighborhoods where they were established. "You want people to go home," said Mark Turner, spokesman for the International Organization for Migration. "The last resort is a place like Corail." Turner said camp managers have been asking Haiti's homeless this question: What will it take for you to move out of a camp? The answers are varied, and the problems aren't easily resolved. Not even the safe places feel safe . All over the city, buildings are being marked green, yellow and red. Some already say: "To demolish." But even after an engineer has marked a home green for "safe," people are reluctant to return. The United Nations estimates only 9 percent of those with green houses have gone back. What if there is another earthquake? Gerald-Emile Brun, an architect working with the government on relocation, said incentives for people to go home -- $50 and a few provisions -- are being created. But so far, nothing has been doled out. For many, Brun recognized, it's impossible to go back to the spot where their house once stood because there is no place to dispose of the rubble. In this city of renters, landlords are refusing to accept people who cannot pay the back rent for the four months they have been gone. Many of the displaced can no longer even afford the monthly amount they were paying before. And as time marches on, many landowners want to evict displaced people so the buildings can be used as intended. What if your child could not go to school because the classrooms were occupied by the homeless? What if you were homeless and had no place to shelter your children except at the neighborhood school? It's a tough call, especially for humanitarian workers who don't believe in forced evictions. But at the same time, Turner said, "we recognize the landowners have legitimate concerns." These are municipal issues that will have to be dealt with by the local government, Turner said. But it won't be easy. Ask Jacques Pablito Chardavoire, who helps manage a camp in front of the city's main cathedral. Chardavoire's response was simple but to the point: . Why would you leave an encampment that offers you a toilet, a shower, emergency food rations and, yes, even an outdoor movie screen when you have no place to go and no money in your pockets? He said almost 2,000 people were resettled in February from Champs de Mars to the cathedral. But within days, that many more people from elsewhere had flocked to Champ de Mars. "Every time we move people, more come because they need services," he said. Much is shattered, but not hope . Haitians, who have lived through political turmoil, extreme violence and grinding poverty, will tell you the earthquake was the worst experience of their lives. Whether a new city can rise from the rubble of Port-au-Prince remains in question, though Haitians are hopeful something good must come out of an event this tragic. They have to be. They have nothing left but hope. And faith. That's why if you peek down lanes on a steamy afternoon, you'll see a gathering of people under a tent, their arms stretched skyward, their eyes closed. And you'll hear the Lord's Prayer. You'll hear it, too, every Sunday morning, before the sun gets hot, at Notre Dame, the main cathedral in Port-au-Prince. The building is shattered, but not the congregation's faith. They still come to the place where, every week, they are re-energized by their belief in Christ. Several Haitians said they feared the world's goodwill would quickly fade now that the throngs of media have left and the spotlight has turned elsewhere. Edna Dunrod was one of them. She worried she was forgotten, lying on a smelly mattress under three tattered bed sheets that serve as a roof in the Champs de Mars tent city. Last month, she gave birth to Marvins, asleep in a plastic tub under a foldable umbrella. Life with a newborn in this congested camp, she said, was unbearable. "I want to go somewhere else," she said. But where, she worried. And who would help her reclaim her life? | Four months after massive quake, progress in Haiti is painfully slow .
People are afraid to return to their homes, even if they've been deemed safe .
Life in camps is difficult, but for many, it's the best option they have .
Despite their tremendous suffering, many Haitians hang onto the hope of a better future . | aa19789487b417613d453b57cdb5bce65c5975b3 | [

Just days after reports claimed Sony is working on a smartwatch covered in e-ink material, images of its device have emerged. The Fashion-Entertainments (FES) watch is currently raising money on crowdfunding site Makuake, and was said to have been created with help from the Japanese tech giant. Sony confirmed its involvement with the startup to the Wall Street Journal, and people involved in the project admitted the tech firm's name was kept a secret to see if there was demand for the gadget. Scroll down for video . The Fashion-Entertainments (FES) watch is currently raising money on crowdfunding site Makuake, and was created with help from Sony. It features 24 design patterns that can be selected at the touch of a button, has a basic design and is said to last up to 60 days on a single button battery . This demand has been proved by the fact the campaign surpassed its fundraising goal of 2 million yen (£10,700/$17,000) in three weeks, with 140 supporters. According to the campaign page, the watch features 24 design patterns that can be selected at the touch of a button. It has a basic design and is said to last up to 60 days on a single button battery. The watch weighs 50.6g, its dial is 1.5-inch (4cm) in diameter and the case is 0.2-inches (7mm) thick. Bloomberg first reported on the rumours earlier this week when sources ‘familiar with the plans’ revealed details of an e-ink device. The report didn't reveal any more details about the watch, nor what it would look like, but said Sony was focusing more on style over substance. The campaign surpassed its fundraising goal of 2 million yen (£10,700/$17,000) in three weeks, with 140 supporters. The FES watch (pictured in its 24 guises) weighs 50.6g, its dial is 1.5-inch (4cm) in diameter and the case is 0.2-inches (7mm) thick .

An official release date has not been announced, but customers can pre-order a FES watch from Makuake, and the device is expected to ship internationally in May. The concept is one of the first products to be developed since Sony’s boss Kazuo Hirai took over the firm’s product strategy division. The division has been tasked with making innovative and breakthrough products. E-ink lacks colour, but as a result uses much less energy than traditional LCD displays. It gets its name because it resembles the text and colour scheme of newspapers and books, which is why it's popular for e-readers. E-ink screens are also easier to read outdoors and in bright sunlight because they produce less glare that LCD displays. Pavel Alpeyev and Grace Huang from Bloomberg also reported that the division is working on technology that should help people make prototype devices faster. The MESH project, for example - which stands for ‘make, experience and share’ - has built a collection of sensors, LEDs and buttons into blocks that are linked wirelessly and can be controlled by a tablet. Cambridge-based Plastic Logic works with e-paper on a number of its products, including the popSlate phone case concept unveiled last year. This added a second, e-ink display to the rear of a phone that can be used to save energy when the battery runs low. In addition to saving energy, e-ink displays produce less glare meaning they can be read even in bright sunlight, which would also give it the edge over other smartwatches and phones.

The Pentagon's most expensive weapons program ever, the F-35 warplane, is cleared for takeoff again. The limited flight clearance, approved by Navy and Air Force officials Monday, allows the aircraft to fly with an engine inspection regimen and restricted flight envelope following the fleet's grounding after an engine fire last month. Defense Department spokesman Mark Wright said in a statement Tuesday the restrictions would "remain in effect until the root cause of the June 23 engine mishap is identified and corrected." It had been hoped that the stealth fighter would be able to make an appearance at the famed Farnborough air show, under way now, but Pentagon spokesman Rear Adm. John Kirby said Tuesday afternoon that won't happen. "The Department of Defense, in concert with our partners in the U.K., has decided not to send Marine Corps and U.K. F-35B aircraft across the Atlantic to participate in the Farnborough air show," he told reporters. "This decision was reached after a consultation with senior leaders and airworthiness authorities, despite the decision by airworthiness authorities to clear the aircraft to return to flight -- to limited flight." The 2014 Farnborough International Airshow began Monday, and runs through July 20 in Farnborough, England. The opening day brought $42 billion of orders and commitments for commercial aircraft and engines, according to a statement from the show's organizers. The F-35 was developed at a cost of nearly $400 billion so far and beset for years by cost overruns and delays. The so-called Joint Strike Fighter was temporarily grounded following a fire on the runway at Eglin Air Force Base in Florida. No one was hurt. Engine maker Pratt & Whitney worked with Air Force investigators to inspect all engines in the fleet. "We have great confidence in the F135 engine powering the F-35, and we have worked very closely with DoD and the Services to return the aircraft to flying status," Matthew Bates, communications manager for Pratt & Whitney Military Engines, said in a statement Tuesday. The F-35's lead contractor, Lockheed Martin, which is producing variants of the plane for the U.S. Navy, Marines and Air Force, also worked with investigators following the fleet's grounding. F-35 future . The Pentagon wants more than 2,400 of the fighter jets ultimately, while hundreds more are expected over time to go to allies such as South Korea, Japan and Australia. More than 100 planes have been built so far, most for testing, but the program is still in its development and training phases. The military says the stealthy fighter will be "the most affordable, lethal, supportable and survivable aircraft ever to be used" by so many services worldwide. But its production has been controversial for its soaring cost history -- the price tag has nearly doubled from early estimates, to $135 million per unit as of last year, according to a U.S. Government Accountability Office report in March -- as well as its schedule, software and other setbacks. Test flights began in 2007. While all models have been grounded in the past for various problems, the version for the Marines, the F-35B, has had more issues. Experts say that's mainly due to its design for shorter takeoffs and vertical landings. Richard Aboulafia, a Teal Group analyst, said earlier this month that every component of the F-35 overall "is pushing the frontiers of technology" as engineers combine extraordinary engine power with a lighter weight design. He said the program has made gradual progress in recent years where glitches get resolved pretty quickly compared with 18 to 24 months ago, when setbacks seemed to come one right after another. "It's a tremendously complex project," he said, adding that cost issues remain a concern. | The F-35 won't participate in the Farnborough air show, Pentagon spokesman says .

(CNN) -- Justin Timberlake and Kanye West may not always see eye-to-eye, but they have at least one trait in common: the inability to be cool. As Timberlake explains in the December issue of GQ, "being cool is about keeping your blood pressure steady," rather than being passionate. Similar to Yeezus, Timberlake isn't the type of guy who can restrain himself from displaying passion, whether he's passionately in love with something or passionately in disagreement -- particularly when he's in disagreement with his critics. After surviving a stretch of negative reactions to his entertainment offerings this fall -- there was September's "The 20/20 Experience -- 2 of 2," and his October release with Ben Affleck, "Runner Runner" -- Timberlake admits to GQ that it was "literally like a bunch of people just took a s*** on my face." To make matters worse, the crime drama "Runner Runner" was not only poorly reviewed, but it also didn't do well at the box office. (To date, it's made $19.2 million domestically.) So when reviewers told the 32-year-old that he should reconsider this whole acting thing, and probably should have also re-thought releasing the second half of March's "The 20/20 Experience," Timberlake was feeling a little sensitive. "This face ... This recognizable face that you work so hard to get -- not because you want the recognition but because you know you're made to do it" also comes with a price, he said. "The movie didn't do well at the box office, so I should quit? Hold on a second. If I was somebody else, you wouldn't have said that. I have the number one album this week, and I shouldn't have released it? Come on, man. You sound like a d***head.... It just shocked me because, like, you're trade magazines. None of your opinions count. And by the way, none of you can do it." Although Timberlake has been in the business since he was a child, getting his start in entertainment around age 10 and building his fanbase on "The Mickey Mouse Club," he nonetheless "grew up with a little bit of a chip on my shoulder," he says. "Sometimes I find it funny that I've been able to acquire the patience it takes to be kind to people in our business. Because sometimes I just want to f****g kill everybody." So, no. Justin Timberlake isn't always as cool and smooth as his "Suit & Tie" portray him to be. But the actor/singer/entrepreneur -- who later apologized for going off on that "tangent" during the interview -- doesn't have any regrets. "I've been doing this professionally since I was 10. If entertainment years were dog years, man, I'd be like Gandhi. I'd be like 250 years old," the recently married star says. "Don't be cool. Be passionate. Be dedicated. Be tenacious. Be uncompromising. Be pissed. Be happy. Be sad. ... I've made a career out of doing things that I should not be doing. I wasn't cool about it. Because being cool would have meant I passed up on those opportunities. If you do that, it's because you're afraid. And what are you afraid of? You know?"

The Costa Concordia will finally be righted next week in the largest and most expensive maritime salvage operation in history. The cost of lifting the giant cruise liner, which sank off the coast of Tuscany in January 2012, off the sea bed, has ballooned to £500million - a figure that could rise if there are problems, organisers admitted. Thirty-two people died when the ship, with 4,200 passengers onboard, hit rocks and ran aground off the island of Giglio after an ill-judged 'salute' to inhabitants by the ship’s captain.

Tragic: The giant wreck of Costa Concordia has lain partly submerged in shallow waters off the Tuscan island of Giglio since the accident in January 2012 .

Assuming seas are calm, the ship will be slowly pulled to the vertical in an hours-long operation so it can be towed to a mainland port and turned into scrap . Dozens of crank-like pulleys will start slowly rotating the ship upright at a rate of about 3 metres per hour. Steel chains weighing 17,000 tons have been looped under the vessel to help pull it upright. Tanks filled with water on the exposed side will also help rotate it upward .

Unprecedented: The cost of refloating the Costa Concordia has risen to £500million and has involved 500 engineers .

An international team of . engineers and other experts has devised no 'Plan B' if the attempt to . right the hulking wreck goes wrong and . the cruise liner splits apart or falls back on its side. Assuming . seas are calm, the ship will be slowly pulled to the vertical in an . hours-long operation so it can be towed to a mainland port and turned . into scrap. The . possibility that the ship might fall apart is a 'remote event', insisted Franco Gabrielli, head of Italy's Civil . Protection agency, at a briefing to lay out logistics. 'If the . ship doesn't turn back upright, there is no other way to try it . again,' he said. The reef sliced a . 70m (230ft) long gash into a side of the hull, seawater rushed . in and the Concordia began to lean over on one side, listing so quickly . that many lifeboats couldn't be lowered to help save the 4,200 . passengers and cruise aboard the pleasure cruise. Many . of Giglio's 1,500 inhabitants work or go to school on the mainland, and . authorities will let one last ferry sail from the island at dawn . on Monday. But no ferries or other boats will be allowed until the effort . is completed. If seas are rough, or a storm looms, the ship's rotation . will be postponed to a later day next week. Divers have pumped 18,000 tonnes of cement into bags below the ship to support it and prevent it from breaking up. A . buoyancy device acting 'like a neck brace for an injured patient' will . hold together the ship's bow, and fishing nets will catch debris as it . rises from beneath the ship, said Nicholas Sloane, senior salvage master . at Titan Salvage. The . salvage team will go through the ship cabin by cabin and hand over items . found on board to the Italian state prosecutor, and the vessel will be . towed away to be dismantled. The greatest fear for environmentalists is that the ship will break up under the massive force needed to haul it upright. The Italian Department for the Environment have also highlighted the danger of pollution as thousands of tonnes of water inside the ship pours out. The ship’s fuel has been removed over months by divers and construction workers toiling 24 hours a day, but chemicals and toxins from rotting food and drink remain. Arpat, the Regional Environmental Agency of Tuscany, said it ‘will provide a sampling of the water in the affected area both during the rotation and in the days to follow, in order to identify the extent, the extension and duration of pollution.’ Mr Sloane admitted that there are risks - but once the operation begins, there is no way to stop it. ‘Once you start lifting her off the reef, you have already gone beyond the point of no return,’ he said. National Civil Protection agency head Franco Gabrielli said: 'This scale of operation has never been attempted before. 'Like all things that have never been done before, there are elements of uncertainty.' He added: 'The theory that the wreck will break is a remote possibility. 'What’s more likely is the possibility of spills. 'Specific plans have been put in place if that happens.' Eventually, in a secondary operation, the cruise liner will be refloated and towed away to be broken up for scrap metal. Four Costa Concordia crew members and a Costa Cruises company official were sentenced to jail in July for their part in the accident, and the ship's captain Francesco Schettino remains on trial for manslaughter and causing the loss of the ship. The captain is accused of abandoning ship before all crew and passengers had been rescued. A coastguard's angry phone order to him - 'Get back on board, damn it!' - became a catchphrase in Italy after the accident.

Passengers onboard the cruise ship Costa Concordia wait to be evacuated after it ran aground . Pulleys, rotation and steel chains: The art of parbuckling . A 500-member salvage team from 24 nations will be conducting the operation to move the ship, known in nautical terms as parbuckling, before the autumn storm season arrives, when winds and powerful waves risk battering it to the point it won't hold together. Dozens of crank-like pulleys will start slowly rotating the ship upright at a rate of about 3metres per hour. Steel chains weighing 17,000 tons have been looped under the vessel to help pull it upright. Tanks filled with water on the exposed side will also help rotate it upward. Although parbuckling is a tested way to set upright capsized vessels, the operation has never been applied to a huge cruise liner. The ship's fuel has been removed over months by divers and construction workers toiling 24 hours a day, but chemicals and toxins from rotting food and drink remain . Mr Sloane said the Concordia will suffer an 'extreme amount of force' of compression in the first part of the manoeuvre. He is 'pretty satisfied' the vessel will survive the stress, adding: 'We expect her to come up to vertical'. 'She's resting in pristine waters on this hill' of two massive pieces of sloping granite seabed, Sloane said. Tension: Observers will hold their breath during the difficult and never-before-tried operation to salvage the Costa Concordia is attempted . He likened the ship's hull bottom to a 'big belly... about the size of a football field' perched on the two reefs. Months ago, divers inserted cement-filled bags and grouting between the reefs to provide more stability. The aim of the parbuckling is to set the wreck upright on an underwater platform that has been installed. 'The objective is to get her to move very slowly and gently,' Sloane said. Engineers indicated they would be anxiously watching the early parts of the effort. Once the ship moves upward some 25 degrees, Sloane said: 'At that point, gravity takes over, and at that point, we start feeling relief.' | 114,00-tonne ship sank off the coast of Tuscany in January 2012 and is due to be lifted on Monday .

By . Rosie Taylor . PUBLISHED: . 19:42 EST, 16 August 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 06:10 EST, 19 August 2013 . Antiques Roadshow veteran David Battie has revealed he nearly lost his . leg after breaking it in a fall and contracting a severe infection in . the injury. The 70-year-old spent nearly seven months in hospital being treated with antibiotics and undergoing nine operations - none of which managed to shift the bacteria. After treatment failed, doctors threatened to amputate his leg but he begged them to find an alternative. David Battie (far left) revealed that he nearly lost his leg when it became infected following a fall. He has been a regular host on the Antiques Road Show for 36 years. They decided to carry out plastic surgery to cut infected flesh and bone from his right ankle and fill the space with a ‘steak’ taken from his left thigh. Now finally back on his feet, Mr Battie will make his first appearance on the Roadshow in over a year this Sunday – and has revealed he made history as the first person to appear on the programme barefoot. ‘I’m much happier without shoes and socks on,’ he said. ‘The infection is gone now but I’m still getting quite a bit of pain, sometimes a lot of pain. I try to keep (my leg) up as much as possible.’ Mr Battie, who has been a regular feature on the show for 36 years, shattered the bones in his lower leg when he slipped on wet grass in April last year. Surgeons drilled into his leg to fit a metal ‘scaffold’ to hold the broken bones in place. But within days bacteria had got in through one of the drill holes and caused an infection. Mr Battie said he had considered leaving the popular BBC programme but that he is excited to return for another series. Mr Battie was told by a nurse to go to A&E at the Royal Sussex County Hospital in Brighton, where a registrar he described as ‘completely idiotic’ told him the weeping from his wound meant it was ‘getting better’ and sent him home. He returned twice in the following week only to be sent home each time - and was only admitted on his fourth visit. He said: ‘I’m not a medical expert, but if they had seen it earlier perhaps I would have been OK.’ Describing the months of treatment he had in hospital, he said: ‘They were pumping me full of antibiotics. ‘In the end they tried to inject it every two hours day and night for a month. That was awful. I was dog tired all the time.’ At the end of November he was taken to the Queen Victoria Hospital in East Grinstead where surgeons performed the operation which saved his leg, although he still has to take ‘handfuls of pills’ to keep the infection at bay. Amazing, Mr Battie can now drive and walk again, although he feels tired most of the time because he sleeps badly due to the pain in both legs. He said he was ‘amazed’ he had ended up which so many complications from a slip ‘where most people would just fall down and go “Ow”.’ ‘It was so silly,’ he added, ‘I had just got out of the car to stretch my legs and slipped on a patch of wet grass.’ He said he had considered quitting the Antiques Roadshow but is thrilled to be back – although he is limiting his involvement to filming locations near his Sussex home. ‘I was worried all the morphine had aged me and affected my memory, but it doesn’t seem to be a problem,’ he said. Mr Battie has written to the Royal Sussex County Hospital with ‘suggestions’ for how it could improve, but said he had not heard anything save for one phone call from ‘a woman in the complaints department who clearly didn’t want to talk to me.’The first episode of the new series of the Antiques Roadshow is on BBC1 at 8pm on Sunday. | 70 year-old told of how doctors wanted to amputate leg after it became severely infected .

By . Suzannah Hills . PUBLISHED: . 03:39 EST, 9 August 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 04:24 EST, 9 August 2013 . Two men have been arrested in Saudi Arabia on suspicion of planning terrorist attacks which forced the closure of several foreign embassies in the region in recent weeks. The arrests come as the U.S. sharply escalated its drone attacks on neighbouring Yemen on Thursday with 12 militants killed in three separate strikes. Saudi officials claim the two men arrested, from Yemen and Chad, were planning suicide attacks connected to recent al Qaeda threats on American and British embassies which forced their closures this week. A soldier mans an anti-aircraft machine gun on a military vehicle during a patrol in Sanaa, Yemen, yesterday . Attack: American drones similar to these killed 12 militants in three separate blasts in Yemen yesterday . The pair were detained in late July after they exchanged information on social media about imminent attacks, the official Saudi Press Agency reported. The Saudi Interior Ministry said an investigation is continuing into the pair, who used mobile phones and encrypted electronic communications to discuss the terrorist plot. 'The security authorities through monitoring and follow up of published messages of incitement and hatred through social networks managed at the beginning of the last ten days of the holy month of Ramadan to arrest two expatriates,' the ministry added, in a statement published by the official state news agency SPA. 'The two recruited themselves for the service of deviant thought, as evidenced by their seized items which included computer hardware, electronic media and mobile phones and which indicated their communication with the deviant group abroad either by electronic encrypted messages or through identities via the social networks (such as Abu Alfidaa, Hspouy, Muawiya Almadani, Rasasah fi Qusasah, and Abu El Feda Aldokulai) so as to exchange information about impending suicide operations in the region,' the statement added. Children play with toy guns in Sanaa, Yemen, yesterday as America continued to launch drone attacks on al Qaeda terrorists in the country . As the world's top oil exporter and main U.S. Gulf ally, Saudi Arabia is a top target for al Qaeda, which carried out attacks the country a decade ago which killed hundreds. Saudi Arabia has arrested thousands of suspects over the past 10 years and accused them of being involved with al Qaeda. Attacks have been rare since 2006 when it crushed a domestic campaign by the militant group. Survivors of the al Qaeda group in Saudi Arabia responsible for attcks between 2003 and 2006 are believed to have later fled to Yemen where they joined local militants to set up AQAP. The Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) is now based in Saudi Arabia's lawless neighbour Yemen - which is one of the militant movement's most active wings. The U.S. is now targeting the terrorist group with drone strikes across Yemen - with 34 suspected al Qaeda militants killed in the last two weeks. It comes amid a global terror alert issued by Washington. High alert: A Yemeni soldier guards security barriers outside the British embassy as authorities tighten security measures around the western embassies in Sanaa, Yemen, earlier this week . The U.S. and Britain evacuated diplomatic staff from the Yemen capital of Sanaa this week after learning of a threatened attack that prompted Washington to close temporarily 19 diplomatic posts in the Middle East and Africa. On Thursday, the U.S. State Department warned Americans not to travel to Pakistan and ordered nonessential government personnel to leave the U.S. Consulate in Lahore because of a specific threat to that diplomatic mission. Thursday's first reported drone attack hit a car carrying suspected militants in the district of Wadi Ubaidah, about 175 kilometers (109 miles) east of Sanaa, and killed six, a security official said. Badly burned bodies lay beside their vehicle, according to the official. Five of the dead were Yemenis, while the sixth was believed to be of another Arab nationality, he said. The second drone attack killed three alleged militants in the al-Ayoon area of Hadramawt province in the south, the official said. The third, also in Hadramawt province, killed three more suspected militants in the al-Qutn area, he added. On patrol: Yemeni soldiers search a car on a street leading to the U.S. and British embassies after Washington issued a global terror alert . All the airstrikes targeted cars, added the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to the media. The drone strikes have become a near-daily routine since they began July 27. So far, they have been concentrated in remote, mountainous areas where al Qaeda's top five leaders are believed to have taken refuge. But drones also have been seen and heard buzzing for hours over Sanaa, worrying residents who fear getting caught in the crossfire. While the United States acknowledges its drone program in Yemen, it does not talk about individual strikes or release information on how many are carried out. The program is run by the Pentagon's Joint Special Operations Command and the CIA, with the military flying its drones out of Djibouti, and the CIA out of a base in Saudi Arabia. Pentagon spokesman Army Lt. Col. Todd Breasseale declined to comment Thursday and would not confirm the existence of a military drone program in Yemen. The CIA also declined to comment. Concerned: A police trooper mans a machine gun mounted on an armoured personnel carrier positioned near the British embassy in Sanaa which was closed earlier this week amid 'increased security concerns' | The two men, from Yemen and Chad, are believed to be involved in al Qaeda threats on British and US embassies .

Clay Pell is entering the race for Rhode Island governor — and bringing along his family legacy and the star power of his wife, Olympic figure skater Michelle Kwan. The grandson of late U.S. Sen. Claiborne Pell will formally announce his candidacy on Tuesday. He made his intentions clear Monday with an invitation to the event bearing the logo 'Clay Pell for Governor.' The 32-year-old Democrat served in the U.S. Coast Guard and worked on the White House National Security staff and at the U.S. Education Department. SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO .

Pell says he's prepared for the job and would bring the state together to address its economic challenges. Clay has said in a recent interview with NBC 10 that even though he hasn't run for office before that he has the background needed to take over the position. 'There are other people with no title and a lot of power and you have to know how to maneuver through all the different pieces of government, and that was exactly my job as director for strategic planning. To take an agenda and work across departments and agencies to bringbudget together with policy...That really is the challenge for the governor here,' he said. He believes that Rhode Island's greatest issue is that of unemployment. He believes that making an impact on education will people get better jobs and he wants to make government programs more accessible and 'transparent.' He faces Providence Mayor Angel Taveras and Treasurer Gina Raimondo in the Democratic primary. Cranston Mayor Allan Fung and businessman Ken Block are running as Republicans.

India's Indira Gandhi International airport is on high alert after a terrorist threat claimed flights from Delhi to Afghanistan are being targeted by Al Qaeda and Islamic State extremists. The security crackdown comes after a phone call was made to Air India's Kolkata office on Saturday, in which the anonymous caller stated one of the carrier's planes would be hijacked. Following the phone call - in which the caller did not specify a particular flight - India's Bureau of Civil Aviation Security ordered airports across the country to strengthen security. Two Air India planes manoeuvre on the tarmac during heavy rains. The carrier received an anonymous phone call claiming it was being targeted by terrorists. Stock image used . Sky marshalls have now been deployed on flights in and out of the country, while there are increased security checks for those travelling. In addition, the number of police officers working outside the airport has increased, commandos are patrolling the airport and all flights to Afghanistan are being carefully monitored,The Times of India reported. In addition to the stringent security measures underway at the Dehli airport, Kolkata's NSC Bose International Airport is also on high alert given its proximity to the offices contacted by the anonymous caller. Security forces believe militants from Al Qaeda and Islamic State (ISIS) - who are currently embroiled in a bloody jihad across Syria and Iraq - are targeting the region, the International Business Times reported. Tensions over a possible terrorist attack in the region are currently on a knife edge after an Indian coast guard ship last week intercepted a Pakistani fishing boat suspected of carrying explosives in the Arabian Sea. The four occupants of the vessel blew it up after a nearly hour-long chase. The ministry said intelligence sources indicated that the boat from near Karachi, Pakistan was planning an unspecified illegal transaction. Indira Gandhi International airport (pictured) is now on high alert following the threat. Stock image used . Included among the airport's (pictured) new security measures are commando patrols and additional sky marshalls aboard flights . It said an aircraft and the coast guard ship intercepted the boat late Wednesday and demanded it stop to allow a search of its crew and cargo. The boat attempted to escape from Indian waters after warning shots were fired, it said. After nearly an hour, the people on the boat set it on fire, causing it to explode and sink near the India-Pakistan maritime boundary, about 365 kilometers (230 miles) west of the Indian town of Porbander. There was no sign of their bodies. 'The boat and persons on board could not be saved or recovered. The boat burnt and sank in the same position, in early hours of January 1,' the statement said. Maroof Raza, strategic affairs editor of the TimesNow news channel, said the people on the vessel may have been planning a New Year's attack on an Indian navy base or a coastal town.

DNA pioneer James Watson is to sell the Nobel Prize he won for his co-discovery of the double helix structure, the building block of life. The coveted gold medal is expected to go under the hammer for up to $3.5 million in a sale at Christie's in New York on December 4. It will be the first time a Nobel Prize has been sold by a living recipient. Watson, now 85, was awarded the medal for work in the field of physiology or medicine alongside fellow scientists Francis Crick and Maurice Wilkins in 1962. The scientist's notes for his acceptance speech at the Nobel ceremony in Stockholm and the manuscript of his Nobel lecture are also on offer at the auction. New life engineered with artificial DNA . Watson and Crick worked together on the structure of DNA at the University of Cambridge's Cavendish Laboratory in the early 1950s. "He was the first person I met who I could really talk to," Watson said in 2013. "I'd met people, but they didn't share my conviction that only DNA was important." In 1953, the pair came to the conclusion that DNA was formed by two twisted strands of molecules, like the rungs of a ladder, holding the iconic double helix structure together. "All we could say when we got it: It's so beautiful!" Watson said. 'DNA was my only gold rush,' says Watson . The discovery, which explained how DNA stores information and how it is replicated, changed biology forever and revolutionized medicine. "Everything we do since then is more or less based on that structure," Mario Capecchi, professor of genetics and human biology at the University of Utah and a former graduate student of Watson's, said last year. Announcing the sale, Christie's auction house said Watson's work was "On a par with Newton, Darwin and Einstein, (and his) unyielding quest for knowledge led to discoveries that forever altered human history." The lucrative allure of the double helix . Watson says he intends to use part of the money raised by the sale to fund projects at the universities and scientific research institutions he has worked at throughout his career. "I look forward to making further philanthropic gifts to Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, the University of Chicago, and Clare College Cambridge," he said in a statement. He added that the auction would mean he could "continue to do my part in keeping the academic world an environment where great ideas and decency prevail." Last year, Francis Crick's "Secret of Life" letter to his son, in which he explained the structure of DNA weeks before the discovery was officially announced in the April 1953 edition of the journal Nature, was sold for $6.06 million. The world record price -- more than three times its pre-sale estimate -- made it the most expensive letter ever sold at auction.

A former portfolio manager in Florida was convicted and sentenced to nine years in prison on Monday after helping his firm earn more than a quarter-billion dollars through an illegal insider trading scheme. Mathew Martoma, an ex-trader from Boca Raton, earned his firm SAC Capital Advisors more than $275million through an insider trading scheme where he cultivated a relationship with two doctors that later provided tips. U.S. District Judge Paul Gardephe said the sheer amount of the record-setting fraud merited the long sentence. Scroll down for video . Going inside: Mathew Martoma, 40, a former portfolio manager for SAC Capital Advisors, was sentenced on Monday to 9 years for a record-breaking insider trading scheme . Martoma, 40, left federal court in Manhattan hand in hand with his wife. Gardephe ordered him to begin serving the sentence in November for his February conviction on charges of conspiracy and two counts of securities fraud. Martoma had flattered and enriched two doctors with inside information about the secret results of an Alzheimer's drug trial so they would tip him off and he could trade ahead of public announcements. The tips enabled SAC Capital Advisors, based in Stamford, Connecticut, to earn more than $275million illegally. The success caused the firm, headed by billionaire Steven A. Cohen, to reward him with more than $9million in bonuses. The judge ordered Martoma to forfeit $9.3million, including his home and banks accounts holding millions of dollars in the names of him and his wife. Family man: Martoma left the courthouse holding hands with his wife Rosemary. He has three children ages 9, 7 and 5 . Long trip: U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said Martoma 'traded his liberty, his name and his time with his family for what in the end is nothing.' Martoma declined to comment before the sentence. As the judge announced the sentence, saying "the sums here are staggering in size," Martoma stood and looked straight ahead, and his wife wiped her eyes with a tissue. The judge said the illegal edge Martoma obtained as he traded in the stocks was a crime that is "deeply corrosive to our markets" and caused people to be cynical about the financial industry. "The gain here is hundreds of millions of dollars more than has ever been seen in an insider trading prosecution," the judge said. He rejected requests by Martoma's defense attorney, Richard Strassberg, that he receive a sentence of two to three years in prison because of his charitable work. He also rejected claims based on the need to take care of his wife and three children, ages 9, 7 and 5. U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said in a statement that the "long and short of Mathew Martoma's trading is that he traded his liberty, his name and his time with his family for what in the end is nothing." Strassberg had insisted Martoma made a sensible decision to sell the bloated stocks of the pharmaceutical companies that sponsored the drug trial. At the trial, Sidney Gilman, a former professor of neurology at the University of Michigan Medical School, testified he gave Martoma secret results of the drug trial sponsored by Elan Corporation and Wyeth nearly two weeks before they were publicly announced in the summer of 2008. Gilman, once one of the world's top Alzheimer's experts, said he was charmed by Martoma. He said he seemed more knowledgeable about his work than hundreds of other financial professionals who paid Gilman more than $1million over several years for consultations. SAC Capital pleaded guilty in November to fraud charges and agreed to pay $1.8billion to settle charges that it allowed, if not encouraged, insider trading for more than a decade. Cohen has disputed the allegations involving his company. | Mathew Martoma, 40, earned his firm, SAC Capital Advisors, more than $275million through insider trading .

Cupertino, California (CNN) -- After Apple unveiled a pair of new iPhones Tuesday, Tim Cook & Co. made the phones briefly available for some hands-on (and fingers-on) testing. Several hundred bloggers and other guests -- including musician Elvis Costello, who had been invited by Apple to play a few songs -- were ushered to a nearby room to handle the phones. I got to spend some time playing with both devices. An in-depth review will have to wait, but here are my first impressions. Design of the iPhone 5S . The body of the iPhone 5S is the same shape andt design at the iPhone 5, but the company has rolled out some new color options. The rumored golden iPhone is real, and a very classy champagne shade of fake gold. The face of the phone is all glass over the screen and surrounding white frame, while the muted gold is only visible on the sides and back. The 5S also comes in silver and another new color Apple is calling "space gray." The gray iPhone is the only one in the 5S lineup that has a black faceplate instead of white. Fingerprint sensor . The most intriguing new hardware feature on the 5S is the fingerprint sensor in its Home button. It doesn't replace the old pass code and can even be turned off. The phone can be unlocked by using either a fingerprint or the code, so if you hand a friend your phone while you're driving, you can just tell them what number to enter. Each phone can record up to five individual fingerprints -- say one for each member of the family you don't mind using it (maybe purposefully leaving out the kids). To add a new print, you first must enter your security code. Pick a finger, preferably the one you use most to press the Home button. For most people, this will be their thumb. To record a print, you place your finger on the home button until it vibrates and then lift and repeat. This goes on for a number of times as it gets a full image of the finger. It also grabs a few impressions of the sides of your finger for a complete picture. To open the phone with a fingerprint, you press the Home button down as usual but then keep the finger on the small circle. It will automatically skip the pass code screen and take you to the home screen. You also can use a fingerprint to pay for purchases from the App Store or iTunes. It worked seamlessly when I tested it, though adding new profiles takes a bit of time. But it's a much faster way to open the phone than entering a pass code, and there is no "reading your print now" type of delay on screen. Camera . The new camera on the iPhone 5S is packed with a number of legitimately cool new features, the result of software and hardware improvements. The new burst mode, which takes rapid-fire photos at a rate of 10 per second, is meant for capturing moving subjects such as twitchy children or sprinting athletes. I took 40 shots in four seconds -- so many that scrolling through them created a neat time-lapse video effect. You can dig through all 40 images yourself to find the winners, but Apple has added a feature that identifies what it thinks are the best in the bunch automatically based on things such as exposure, blur and if the subject's eyes are open. Out of the 40 images, two were highlighted with a small gray dot. In the camera roll, the burst photos were lumped together in one pile so I could easily delete all the extras after I picked my final shots. With another new feature, I tried making a slow-motion video. The camera can record 120 frames per second, which is helpful for slowing down and stretching out detailed scenes. You scroll to the Slow-Mo setting before shooting the video. After the clip is recorded, you choose what section of it to slow down. The final video looked impressively professional, even though it was just of tech bloggers milling about a room. The room was a bit too bright to accurately test out the new flash. Apple claims the flash will automatically adjust color and intensity depending on the subject and lighting situation. It has two different colored LED lights instead of the usual one. A better flash would be a welcome improvement over the traditional LED flashes on iPhones (and most other smartphones) that flood scenes with harsh light. Graphics . The faster processor inside the 5S means everything is zippier, including the graphics. This is the case with every new iPhone, so it's hard to tell how much of an upgrade this one is. But the high-end game apps did look rich. Apple is calling the new graphics "console level," so next time we'll have to test it head to head with an Xbox. iPhone 5C . The lower-priced iPhone 5C doesn't have as many fancy new hardware features. Instead, its pizazz is mostly on the outside. Apple rounded the corners down and encased the 5C in a smooth hard plastic shell instead of metal. Plastic has a reputation of being cheap and breakable, but Apple is pitching this as high-end plastic. Apple design head Jony Ive even says, "The iPhone 5C is beautifully, unapologetically plastic." The polycarbonate body does feel sturdier than other plastic phones, and the phone still has bit of weight to it. The entire back side of the phone is one seamless piece of plastic and comes in blue, green, pink, yellow and white. The colors look subdued in press images, but in person the green and pink are a bit more fluorescent and bright. Apparently Apple didn't think one super bright color was enough, so it also created a line of $29 soft silicon shells for the 5C. The blue, green, pink, yellow, black and white cases have a grid of holes in the back so you can see the original shade of the 5C through them as lines of dots. | CNN's Heather Kelly spent a few minutes with new newly launched iPhones Tuesday .

Mishal Husain joined Radio 4’s Today in October and brought a surge in listeners, but now 400,000 appear to have deserted the station . She initially prompted a spike in interest….but it appears the Mishal Husain effect is wearing off. The 41-year-old journalist joined Radio 4’s Today team in October last year and brought a surge in listeners with her. But between January and June some 400,000 appear to have deserted the station according to figures released by Rajar which monitors radio listener numbers. The data reveals that when Miss Husain joined the station’s flagship news show the 6am-9am slot – which the programme occupies from Monday to Friday – had a weekly audience of 6.81million. This shot up over the next three months (Oct to Dec) to 7.14million but between January and June it has fallen to 6.7m. Miss Husain, who has three children with her husband Meekal Hashmi, presents the show along with Sarah Montague, Jim Naughtie, Evan Davis, Justin Webb and John Humphrys, who she clashed with five years ago when he asked during a recording of Celebrity Mastermind whether she had got her job as a BBC 1 newsreader ‘because you are good-looking’. On joining Today as the breakfast news programme’s first ethnic minority presenter, she said: ‘I have long been an admirer of Today and am delighted to have the opportunity to join the team.’ BBC director general Tony Hall said: ‘She is a first-rate journalist. She will be an excellent addition to what is a very powerful and strong team. He added: ‘I am particularly pleased that with her appointment there will be another female voice on the programme, which I think is really important.’ Miss Husain also worked on the BBC’s coverage of the 2012 Olympics and, reported for the corporation from Pakistan – the country where her parents were born – on the death of Osama Bin Laden and the assassination of the country’s ex-prime minister Benazir Bhutto. Scroll down for video . Miss Husain presents the show along with Sarah Montague, Jim Naughtie, Evan Davis, Justin Webb and John Humphrys (left) During the same nine month period, other BBC radio breakfast shows enjoyed significant rises, Chris Evans’s show on Radio 2 saw a gain of 562,000 in its weekly listeners, while Nick Grimshaw’s Radio 1 morning programme enjoyed a jump of 388,000. Radio 5 Live’s morning slot also gained 162,000 extra weekly listeners, although Radio 3 saw a decline of 7,000. A BBC spokesperson said: 'Today has a very loyal audience and listening figures traditional hover around 7 million a week, but in this quarter across Radio 4 there has been a small dip in the weekly reach.' | Miss Husain joined the flagship news programme in October .

By . Jason Groves . PUBLISHED: . 19:31 EST, 14 June 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 19:50 EST, 14 June 2013 . A lawyer for the Leveson Inquiry who had an affair with Hugh Grant’s barrister played a significant role in the inquiry, Lord Justice Leveson admitted last night. The judge had initially suggested that Carine Patry Hoskins played only a minor role in his inquiry, carrying out work that was ‘largely mechanical’. But, following revelations that she was paid £218,000 for her work between July 2011 and November 2012, he came under pressure to reveal more about her role. Affair: Celebrities' barrister Mr Sherborne and Mrs Patry Hoskins, a . member of Lord Justice Leveson’s legal team, claim their relationship . did not start until after the inquiry . In a letter to the Tory MP Rob Wilson, . the judge said she had also played a key role in drawing up lines of . questioning used by the inquiry’s lead counsel Robert Jay, as well as . questioning witnesses herself, reviewing witness statements and . researching areas of the law. However the letter said nothing about her role in drawing up the so-called Rule 13 letters outlining the inquiry’s criticisms of the Press before the report was published. Lord Justice Leveson insists the conclusions of his report were his alone. But Mr Wilson said the revelations would underline public concern about whether the Leveson Inquiry’s findings could have been compromised by an affair between Miss Patry Hoskins, a married mother of two, and David Sherbourne, a barrister representing Mr Grant and other celebrities campaigning for regulation of the Press. Miss Patry Hoskins, who became known as the ‘woman on the left’ during the televised hearings, was junior counsel in the team led by Mr Jay. She went on holiday to the Greek island of Santorini with Mr Sherbourne in August last year – while the inquiry was being conducted. Lord Justice Leveson admitted that the barrister had in fact had a significant role in the inquiry . The pair claim they simply discussed the ‘possibility of a future relationship and decided against it’. They say they changed their minds later and became a couple after the inquiry ended in December. Mr Wilson said: ‘We now learn that Carine Patry Hoskins did indeed provide important legal advice to the Leveson Inquiry, and dealt with witnesses and made assessments of the evidence on behalf of the inquiry. This must have had some bearing on the inquiry’s work, whether she had a formal input into the drafting of the report or not. ‘It would be completely inappropriate for someone to carry out these important tasks for an impartial public inquiry while developing such close personal relations with one of the parties’ barristers to the point that they went on holiday together to contemplate an affair. Holiday together: The pair went on a break to the island of Santorini (pictured) in Greece . ‘I am very surprised that Lord Justice Leveson has not already taken the many opportunities available to him to make this clear.’ In his latest letter, Lord Leveson again denied that Miss Patry Hoskins influenced his final report. He said she had ‘no input into the conclusions or recommendations in the report itself’. In April last year Miss Patry Hoskins told people at the inquiry she was helping to draft the Rule 13 letters, which set out criticisms of the Press across 120 pages that appeared largely unchanged in the final report later in the year. The letters were sent to newspaper editors in mid-August, when Miss Patry Hoskins claims she was contemplating an affair with Mr Sherbourne. Lord Justice Leveson’s latest letter makes no reference to her work in this area, focusing on her work in the early stages of the inquiry. He has previously said she merely ‘assisted in the largely mechanical exercise of collecting and organising the evidence to support the generic criticisms’ set out in the letters. | Judge initially suggested that Carine Patry Hoskins played only a minor role .

NEW YORK (CNN) -- Chester French is giving its music away. Chester French, Max Drummey, left, and D.A. Wallach are earning buzz as a band to watch. Go to the duo's Web site and you can scoop up an entirely free "athletic-themed" album. The idea is that you'll be so impressed by the free stuff, you'll feel inspired to buy the band's official debut album, "Love The Future" (Star Trak/Interscope), which came out last month. "We're doing something that's never been done by a band before," says lead singer D.A. Wallach. "It's great because when you put out free music, people can spread it around as much as they want. And right now as we're just trying to expose ourselves to more people. Every new supporter helps." The band has even come up with a fancy name for its fans: "VIP Concierge Service." So who are these two clever, skinny dudes who jokingly claim to "put in a lot of burn at the gym"? Wallach and Max Drummey met at Harvard, but found music to be more interesting than their studies. Fortunately for them, sought-after producer Pharrell Williams liked what he heard and signed the group to his label. So far things seems to be working out for Chester French (named for sculptor Daniel Chester French, though the group is sick of explaining). They won a place on Rolling Stone's "Artists to Watch" list in 2008. HBO's "Entourage" showed some love for their catchy single "She Loves Everybody." Watch Chester French get punched by a pretty girl » . And then there's the transportation situation. "Right now we're on the first tour bus we've ever had," says Wallach. "We were driving around in a van for the past year and a half and it's a real luxury now to be able to sleep while we're driving." The band spoke to CNN about the challenges of navigating a rapidly changing industry, getting punched by a pretty girl in a music video and why the Beach Boys have nothing on them. CNN: How does it feel to be called the next big thing? D.A. Wallach: You know what, we actually haven't been called that in those words too often. But if we did, that would be very flattering. CNN: Things get a bit violent in the music video for your song "She Loves Everybody." Who's idea was it to have you both get beaten up by an angry girl? Wallach: It was the director's. We worked with Paul Hunter on the video and it was our first music video. ... He had the concept that love hurts. So this girl was going to take it out on us and we were going to be all about it and still smiling and enjoying it. CNN: So it was a lot of fun? Wallach: Yeah it was great. It was painless. Actually we both got hit accidentally by her. I mean most of the hits were kind of staged punches. But we both got hit once each, and it was fun. CNN: You're both Harvard graduates. Does that make you the smartest dudes in pop music? Wallach: Probably not. We were kind of nerds in high school. And the hardest part about Harvard is getting in, people say. After that you take it at your own pace. And at different times we were more or less engaged there, but we met some other really intelligent, thoughtful people. Max Drummey: And there's definitely a lot of stupid people at Harvard. CNN: Tell me how you both met. Wallach: We met in the dining hall our freshman year and we started the band with three of our classmates. It was just a funny hobby at first and it wasn't until sophomore year that we really got serious about it and said, "OK, let's actually try and make this a possibility as a career." CNN: And didn't you record most of your new album on campus? Wallach: Yeah, there was a recording studio in the basement of one of the dorms at Harvard and we were both recording engineers there. So we recorded lots for other people as well. And in our free time we were working on the record we just released, "Love the Future." CNN: Is it true that there was a bit of a bidding war between Jermaine Dupri and Pharrell Williams (over the record deal)? Wallach: No. ... There were several people all at once who were interested in working with us and it was a little awkward because they're all friends with each other. And since we've been working with Pharrell we've stayed cool with everyone. ... We couldn't have gone wrong. CNN: Why do you think there's been all this interest from hip-hop producers? Drummey: We're the hottest rappers out. Wallach: I'm from Milwaukee, he's from Boston. They're both very diverse cities and we grew up with friends and all different kinds of music around us. So the records we make are inspired by a lot of different places. And certainly having grown up in the '90s, hip-hop is a part of the soundtrack for us and so it's very natural for us to have learned things from Dr. Dre or Pharrell and people like that. CNN: A lot of people compare your sound to the Beach Boys. How do you feel about that comparison? Drummey: I mean we're definitely better. And we came first too. So it's sort of a ridiculous comparison. CNN: Don't you play the theremin? Drummey: Yeah. Not well. Wallach: There are only a couple of people who play it at a virtuoso level. You'd have to really have something off to put the time in as a theremin artist. CNN: What has been the most surprising aspect of the music business so far? Wallach: I think the biggest surprise has been that people don't really know a hundred percent what they're doing. Everyone is trying to figure out how the music business is going to look in 10 years. And as a new artist there's not a blueprint. I figured you'd get signed and you're instantly on billboards. And the reality of it is that we find ourselves in a situation where all we can focus on is building our audience one person at a time. And it's just a brick-and-mortar, nose-to-the-grindstone process. CNN: What musicians do you admire as being fellow brainiacs? Wallach: Trent Reznor from Nine Inch Nails I think is really brilliant, not just on a musical level. Pharrell's been incredibly helpful and his advice is always really apt. Jay-Z. Really, when you're in the thick of it, anybody who's built a real career has something figured out. Or they got really lucky. | Chester French a duo of two Harvard grads .

By . Katy Winter . The tradition of embarrassing fathers is alive and kicking in Britain today a survey has revealed. In fact British teenagers find their fathers so embarrassing that they stay an average of 6.7 metres away from them if they are out together in public, for fear of being seen by friends. But maybe the kids should be more grateful as it transpires that the average father also does 627 ‘dad miles’ every year on weekends, ferrying teens to and from parties and other social gatherings, often very late into the evening. British teens implement a 6.7m exclusion zone for fear of being seen by friends in public with their dads . One West London father of four, Jeremy Duncan, said that he had taken to answering the phone 'Duncan’s Taxis' after 10pm on Friday and Saturday nights in the certain knowledge that it would be a request for a lift from one of his teenage kids. Jeremy said: 'I have noticed that my teenage kids tend to keep their distance when we’re out and about. Fathers are still embarrassing their offspring in much the same manner as also . 'I don’t take it personally because I remember doing it myself from time to time, as we all do. 'Maybe Father’s Day should be the one day in the year when we agree a bit of a temporary truce and call a halt to No Dads Land in public.' In an attempt to show the lack of appreciation father's usually receive, another father lists a selection of texts from his teenage children which include such gems as: 'Eggs, bacon, butter, bread. Tx', 'Waiting on cod,' 'Is there a meal of sorts?,' and 'Any chance of a lift?'. Britain’s long-suffering fathers fall well behind their female counterparts in the thank you stakes as well. Market data from the UK Greeting Card Association reveals that 22 million Father’s Day cards were sent in 2013, less than half the number sent to mothers on Mother’s Day. Tim Fairs, director at Clinton’s, said: 'Father’s Day is the one day in the year devoted to dads. 'What we’re hoping is that kids will recognise that their dads have their hearts in the right place even if their behavior sometimes leaves a little to be desired.

By . Andrew Young In Ibiza . PUBLISHED: . 16:57 EST, 24 August 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 09:37 EST, 25 August 2013 . Drug binge: Sophie Lee Turley who says she introduced Melissa Reid to drug gang that made her friend a mule . A third girl who says she almost became ensnared in the Ibiza cocaine smuggling plot has been questioned by British police. Sophie Lee Turley says that after she and Melissa Reid were taken on a four-day drug binge by a man in Ibiza, she was targeted by the same gang that is said to have ensnared Reid and Michaella McCollum Connolly. She says she escaped before being forced to carry drugs. ‘I went and hid for a few days as I was terrified,’ she said. Miss Turley, a friend of Reid, is lying low in her home city of Nottingham, having been warned she had 24 hours to flee Ibiza. She told The Mail on Sunday yesterday that Nottinghamshire police interviewed her last week. ‘I have not told them everything, just what they need to know,’ Miss Turley, 22, said. ‘I don’t want to get involved. There is a potential threat to my safety. I have taken advice from a solicitor who has said they cannot force me to co-operate.’ In an exchange with Melissa Reid’s mother on Facebook, Miss Turley admitted she introduced Melissa to the man her daughter says forced her to become a drugs mule. Asked by Debra Reid to ‘tell us what you know about what has happened to our beautiful daughter’ Miss Turley replied: ‘I met a guy whom I introduced to Mel as we was all going out one night . . . ‘After he fuelled us all with drugs on what was a four-day binge he had somehow managed to have both mine and Mel’s passport details and we was booked on flights. ‘She was sent first and I went and hid for a few days as I was terrified. Mel assured me she was OK . . . I didn’t think it was her messaging me though, I thought it was the guys she was with.’ Later, she said, ‘the guys threatened us to keep quiet’ and added that when Melissa was arrested ‘they gave me 24 hours to disappear’. ‘I’ve come back home as I’m really scared for my safety . . . Mel never wanted to do this, the other girl was also forced. ‘I’m too scared to tell police in case these bad guys look for me.’ Miss Turley said the man who targeted the girls was called Joe, originally from Manchester, but now living in San Antonio, Ibiza. However, both arrested women said in statements to police that they knew him as Jake. Meanwhile in Ibiza, associates of a taxi driver called Joe, believed to be the man referred to by Miss Turley, dismissed suggestions that he handed the girls to a drugs gang as ‘unbelievable’. But Miss Turley told Melissa’s mother: ‘The only reason I can’t talk is people he [Joe] hangs round with know me from Nottingham which means he can find me and told me he will if I speak.’ Before signing off by apologising because her mother ‘doesn’t want me involved’, Miss Turley said she was willing for Mrs Reid to pass on her details to the ‘guy from the Foreign Office’. She added: ‘I feel like I have to do something – I introduced her to the guy before he started forcing us all.’ The Foreign Office declined to comment last night, beyond saying it was providing consular assistance. Nottinghamshire police also refused to discuss its involvement in the case. Melissa Reid, 20, is led away from the state prosecutor's office in Lima, her desperate mother asked Debra Reid asked Miss Turley to 'tell us what you know' Melissa Reid’s father William has made clear that there are elements of his daughter’s story that he would like ‘clarity on’. Only people such as Miss Turley, among others, can provide it, he said. ‘I would like the authorities to vigorously investigate them, track them down, question them. Have they got any further vital information?’ His wife added: ‘Melissa is very sociable and was probably too trusting and she was definitely naive to the drugs culture. ‘But she is no angel and I suspect she may have experimented alongside her friends out there. Sophie Lee Turley . ‘She is a good, honest girl and I believe she has been dragged into this against her will.’ The Mail on Sunday has established that the man named by Miss Turley works illegally as an unlicensed taxi driver on the Spanish holiday island. Also known as Joey, he is believed to live in cheap accommodation in San Antonio Bay, home to hundreds of young Britons working in bars and clubs for the summer. He is thought to have spent the past two summers living in Ibiza, initially working for around six weeks last year pulling in customers off the street for the Active Bar in San Antonio Bay. The bar’s owner, a Scotsman called William, said: ‘He is back on the island this year, working as a taxi driver. ‘I just can’t see him being involved in serious criminality and drugs gangs. It is just unbelievable.’ | Sophie Lee Turley believes she introduced Melissa Reid to the drugs gang that sent her to Peru .

London (CNN) -- Using your fingerprint to identify yourself seems beguilingly simple: it belongs only to you, and you aren't going to lose it. Apple's use of fingerprint technology -- although not the first in the industry -- seems very in tune with its ethos of making devices easy to use. However, how safe fingerprint technologies really are does depend on how they are implemented. You might ask, is my fingerprint stored, who else can access it? Can the government demand that Apple hand my fingerprints to them, or use Apple to identify criminals from their database? Apple have stated on record that they do not store fingerprints, and nor does the device. Instead, the iPhone stores the result of a check -- a "hash," which may be unique, but can't reveal your fingerprint. But after the revelations by Edward Snowden that Apple was one of four Internet companies to have handed over data to the NSA, Apple has a much harder job to persuade the public to trust them. We need to know that backdoors won't be built into iPhones to allow security services' to retrieve your fingerprint data. The NSA has been shown to have a program of demanding means of entry to the software and hardware of all cell phones, through introducing security flaws. These flaws -- software bugs -- are also available to criminals and competing security agencies to exploit. Are we going to trust Apple's security won't be compromised? They are participants in the PRISM scheme -- whatever precisely that involves. How else are they co-operating with secret NSA demands? The long-term answer to these security trust issues is to reveal the whole of these systems, including the underlying "source code" so that computer programmers can check how they work, and ensure that systems are not compromised. That's not really the kind of approach that Apple has been famous for, often being very closed about their software development and asking us to trust them to know best. Citizens and businesses should not have to trust their security to systems they cannot examine. Apple's fingerprint system does create a risk of "normalizing" biometrics. Because of the iPhone's widespread use, people may increasingly expect to use similar "easy" and "safe" biometric systems, without considering that they create highly personal identification, with risks of being tracked and surveilled, and yet do not necessarily deliver the security that they imply. Other low level fingerprint ID systems suffer the same problems, yet are being employed in schools, even to replace library cards. Biometrics can create a false sense of security. It is easy to assume that the tools really are a hard identification of an individual, and therefore, the technology cannot be fooled, or go wrong. However, systems can be fooled. Fingerprints and even your iris can be replicated. Apple's fingerprint system may encounter a simple problem, in that the key to unlocking your phone -- your fingerprint -- could well be liberally scattered across the phone you are trying to protect. While the phone may also look for body heat, or skin irregularities, there is at least a distinct path which could be used to try to break into a phone. We'll have to see if anyone can use it successfully. Some of these risks are manageable, through transparency and audit. The wider social risks are far harder to manage; arguably they aren't Apple's problem. Perhaps society needs to start having a much more intense debate about security and privacy, starting off with asking: whose security are we worrying about: my own, or the state's? How do I know what risks I am taking, and why should I trust any of the claims that are made? People understand what a wallet or a doorlock is. The risks with personal and financial information are less tangible, and the risks of state abuse of power sometimes less tangible still. But these come with the digital technology; we will truly be citizens of the digital age when we can successfully debate and deal with these problems.

By . Daily Mail Reporter . A funeral home in a small town in Pennsylvania has added a motorcycle hearse to its lineup last month in hopes of better serving bereaved bikers by bearing their deceased loved ones to the afterlife with a thunderous roar. Heintzelman Funeral Home six months ago tapped Orange County Chopper in Newburgh, New York, to craft a one-of-a-kind two-wheeled hearse with all the trimmings, including an S&S V111 engine and a reverse gear that allows it to back up, according to a press release on the company's website. 'The last thing they want is to be in a four-wheel drive vehicle,' said David Heintzelman, co-owner of the Hellertown-based funeral home. 'They want noise and they want speed.' Heintzelman Funeral Home of Hellertown, Pennsylvania, ordered this custom-built motorcycle hearse to better serve its biker clientele . Paul Teutel Sr, a co-founder of Orange County Chopper who earned television notoriety on the reality series American Chopper, designed the stretch motorcycle, according to WFMZ.com. 'It is a chopper, and it is class,' Heintzelman, who declined to specify the price he paid, told WFMZ. 'The paint is second-to-none. I am so . proud of the paint job. It is a black metal flake with some ghosting of . gold and metal gray,' The hearse can be detached from the motorcycle so that it can be ridden independently of the carriage . Paul Teutel Sr, co-founder of Orange County Chopper and a star of the reality TV series American Chopper, helped design the motorcycle hearse . The toughest part, he said, was figuring out how to attach the casket-carriage to the bike because of the weight distribution, a process that took weeks of preparation. In the end, Orange County designed it with a 'quick disconnect' that allows the motorcycle to be used separately from the casket. The funeral home charges $395 to $595, depending on distance, for the service, for the 'Harley Davidson Hearse with a licensed funeral director as its driver' and wearing the 'attire of all Harley riders.' As for why he did it, Heintzelman said it only makes sense to let people who spent their lives on a motorcycle take their final journey on one as well. The funeral home also offers clients the option of using a horse-drawn coach , in addition to the more conventional Cadillac and Lincoln hearses. 'Those who are bikers, understand and know, they live and breathe the . road,' he said. But the motorcycle hearse doesn't appeal only to bikers, Heintzelman said. 'I actually had a person who had died, a female who was never on a . motorcycle, that was in her late 80s,' he said. Her children 'saw a picture of [the motorcycle hearse] in my arrangement conference room, and they thought this was so cute and . unique, they wanted to have that for their mom.' The roaring motorcycle hearse is driven into a graveyard in Hellertown, Pennsylvania, where David Heintzelman's funeral home is based .

Arjen Robben has admitted it 'wasn't easy' to work under Jose Mourinho at Chelsea due to the injury problems that plagued the early stages of his career. Bayern Munich winger Robben spent three seasons under The Special One between 2004 and 2007, winning two Premier League titles, an FA Cup and two League Cups. But despite his key role in Mourinho's first-era Chelsea side, the Dutchman says his frequent spells out with injury meant that things didn't always work out as he would have wanted. Arjen Robben's relationship with Jose Mourinho at Chelsea was complicated by his injury problems . The Dutch winger was often out injured but is now regularly fit for his current club Bayern Munich . Robben scored in Bayern's impressive 8-0 victory over Hamburg in the Bundesliga on Saturday . The 31-year-old winger praised the Portuguese coach's role in his development but felt that Mourinho's dislike for players who get injured made things difficult for them both before he eventually moved to Real Madrid for £24million in 2007. 'It was very good to work with him (Mourinho) at that age because I was young and with Mourinho you have to be mentally very strong,' Robben said. 'You have to jump on the train with him or you're off. So it was great for my development.' Mourinho and Robben walk from the pitch together at Anfield after a Chelsea defeat . Robben was an important player in Mourinho's first Chelsea spell but was constantly troubled by injury . Robben won two Premier League titles and formed a dangerous partnership with Damien Duff . Robben did not make his Chelsea debut until October in his first season at Stamford Bridge due to a broken metatarsal suffered in pre-season but he went on to form an impressive partnership with Damien Duff as Mourinho's men went unbeaten in the league for the rest of the campaign. 'It was hard at first because I came with an injury,' Robben told The Guardian. ' It was very difficult for me and also for him. Of course, he doesn’t like players who get injured. 'So it wasn’t easy but I always had the feeling I had his confidence. I played some great games for Chelsea but it was unfortunate I had injury problems and I couldn’t do it over a long period – like now.' Robben still retains good memories of his time in London though - and reserved particular praise for the much-maligned hectic festive period, although he added: 'playing four games in 10 days is crazy.'

Two Philadelphia police officers were charged Thursday with aggravated assault for beating up a man riding a scooter in an unprovoked attack that was caught on a surveillance camera. A grand jury brought the police brutality charges against officers Sean McKnight and Kevin Robinson, finding they allegedly knocked Najee Rivera off his motorized scooter and pummeled him with fists and baton in May 2013, Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams said during a press conference announcing the charges. Surveillance footage from a business recorded at least some of the beating, said the district attorney's office in Philadelphia. Scroll down for video . 'Not above the law': Philadelphia police officers Sean McKnight (left) and Kevin Robinson (right) have been charged with aggravated assault and a slew of other counts in the May 2013 attack on Najee Rivera . Beaten to a pulp: Rivera, 23, suffered a fractured orbital bone and numerous head lacerations . Prosecutors said the officers later lied about the attack, accusing the victim of assaulting Robinson. Rivera, 23, suffered a fractured orbital bone and numerous head lacerations. Prosecutors said there was so much blood on the ground around Rivera that another officer who arrived on the scene thought he had been shot, according to NBC Philadelphia. Robinson, 26, a six-year veteran, and 30-year-old McKnight, who has been on the force for seven years, are now facing charges of aggravated assault; simple assault; criminal conspiracy; reckless endangerment; tampering with public records; false reports of law enforcement authorities; obstruction and official oppression. At 10pm on May 29, 2013, Najee Rivera was riding his scooter near North 7th and Somerset streets when he was pulled over by police. According to investigators, the 23-year-old driver became fearful and took off. In the officers' version of events originally offered to their superiors, what happened next was that Rivera fell from his scooter and hurt his face. Surveillance video from a nearby business captured the veteran cops beating the man . After being pummeled with fists and a baton, Rivera was handcuffed and left bleeding on the ground for several minutes . Robinson and McKnight’s report also stated that the 23-year-old violently resisted arrest by assaulting the six-year police veteran. But surveillance footage from a nearby business, which has been obtained by Rivera's girlfriend and later aired by 6ABC, tells a markedly different story. Prosecutors say the grainy video, which the woman tracked down by canvassing area businesses, shows one of the cops reaching out of the squad car window and clubbing Rivera in the head. The police car then bumps the scooter, sending Rivera tumbling to the ground. Robinson and McKnight emerge from the car and proceed to repeatedly strike the man with their fists and a baton, the prosecutors said. 'He never resisted. he never struck them. he never fought back. they just started hitting him,' Williams said. Furious: Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey, left, said Thursday what his officers did was inappropriate and in violation of every policy . Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams, at podium, vowed to prosecute Robinson and McKnight to the fullest extent of the law . Following the assault, Rivera was placed in handcuffs and kept on the ground for several minutes while bleeding profusely. He was then booked on charges of resisting arrest and aggravated assault. But the case against Rivera fell apart when his girlfriend turned the damning surveillance footage over to police. Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey told reporters Thursday that Robinson and McKnight have been suspended for 30 days with intent to dismiss from the force. The two cops have been off the streets for the past two years. 'What they did was totally inappropriate, totally in violation of policy, training, anything, period," Ramsey said.

Cleaners are being paid £3.20 a day to scrub roads, stray dogs are being 'rounded up' and curfews have been imposed on locals as India prepares for the arrival of President Barack Obama. He arrives this weekend for an unprecedented second visit by a serving U.S. president, the honoured guest of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who was a Washington outcast only a year ago. And with a visit to the Taj Mahal on the President and his wife's itinerary, authorities are furiously working to ensure it leaves a lasting impression. Scroll down for video . A man scrubs the road leading to the Taj Mahal in Agra ahead of President Obama and his wife's visit .

Stray dogs have been rounded up, two tonnes of rubbish have been cleared from the nearby river and a lockdown has been ordered around the entire Taj Mahal complex. Remarkably, more than 600 cleaners have also been employed, many of which have been ordered to scrub the 10mile stretch of road leading to the complex on their hands and knees, NDTV reported. Paid only 300rupees (£3) a day, the men and women have been tasked with washing away spit stains and dust. KK Mohammed, India's former chief archaeologist, said: 'There are a lot of spit stains and such that need to be washed away. The streets need to be spick and span.' Obama's courtship of Prime Minister Modi is evident from his three-day itinerary, the first time an incumbent president has returned to India. While recent swings through Asia have included multiple stopovers, India is Obama's only destination this time, despite the risk of offending neighbouring Pakistan. 'There's no question this is a defining time in the US-India relationship,' US Ambassador Richard Verma said in New Delhi yesterday. 'Things not only feel different, they are different.' Modi's election in May 2014 was a potential headache for the US, which had blacklisted the Hindu nationalist for more than a decade after deadly communal riots in Gujarat when he was state chief minister. He was only brought in from the cold last February when Verma's predecessor travelled to Gujarat once it appeared Modi was likely to end the centre-left Congress party's 10-year rule.

Police yesterday described claims that a Conservative MP strangled a boy of 12 as ‘credible and true’. Officers investigating three alleged murders linked to a VIP paedophile ring also backed claims that a Tory minister watched as another boy was murdered. Scotland Yard has now launched an extraordinary appeal for information from celebrities, politicians and foreign dignitaries who lived at or visited the exclusive Dolphin Square estate in central London in the 1970s and 1980s. Scroll down for video . Scandal: The Met is looking into explosive claims boys were abused and even killed by Conservative politicians at Dolphin Square, a block of flats in Pimlico, London . It comes after months of Daily Mail investigations concerning alleged abuse at Dolphin Square and the nearby Elm Guest House in south-west London. Detectives say they believe a witness who claimed he was sexually assaulted at Dolphin Square, in Pimlico, by senior MPs, spies and prominent military figures during ‘abuse parties’ over a period of almost a decade. The alleged victim, known only as Nick, says he was molested from the age of seven to 16. He has told how he saw a Conservative MP strangle a 12-year-old boy at an orgy in a London townhouse around 1980, and that a Conservative Cabinet minister watched two men kill another boy in a depraved sexual assault a year later. A third boy aged ten or 11 was deliberately run over in broad daylight in south-west London by an unknown member of the paedophile gang in 1979, he alleges. The man at the centre of the Dolphin Square inquiry says he was abused at depraved sex ‘parties’ from the age of seven. Known only by the pseudonym Nick, he claims to have witnessed horrific acts at the luxury estate in central London between 1975 and 1984. After being abused by his father, Nick says he was handed to a gang of top Establishment figures. He has described being driven by a chauffeur, along with a terrified 12-year-old boy, to a luxury townhouse where he watched as a Tory MP strangled the other child. Nick also said he saw a second boy being brutally murdered in front of a Tory Cabinet minister in 1981. A third boy, aged ten or 11, had died in 1979 after being deliberately run over by a member of the paedophile gang in a ‘warning’ to victims not to speak out, he alleges. He says he was taken to Dolphin Square at least ten times for ‘abuse parties’. He claimed one MP told him to thrash another boy - and ‘sexually punished’ him when he refused. After receiving counselling he contacted the investigative website Exaro in May, whose investigators described him as ‘intelligent and articulate’, before going to the police. Police have now appealed for potential witnesses who lived in or visited Dolphin Square, where Nick said the majority of the abuse took place, between 1975 and 1984. They confirmed for the first time they were looking at ‘allegations of serious and organised sexual abuse’ at Dolphin Square and other locations, including military bases, after Nick said he and several other boys were driven to properties in London and the Home Counties, where they were raped, cut and beaten. Now in his forties, Nick has helped to compile e-fits of the three alleged murder victims, whose names he never learned. Police are working through historical missing persons reports and unsolved child murders to look for possible matches. Detectives have spoken to the family of Martin Allen, who disappeared in 1979 aged 15, but are not currently linking him to Dolphin Square. Similarly, Sussex Police is reviewing the disappearance and murder of eight-year-old Vishal Mehrotra in 1981. The Royal Military Police is also investigating claims that military bases were used by a VIP paedophile ring. Scotland Yard first launched its investigation into Nick’s claims – Operation Midland – last month. Detective Superintendent Kenny McDonald said: ‘Nick has been spoken to by experienced officers from child abuse teams and experienced officers from murder investigations. They and I believe what Nick is saying is credible and true.’ He continued: ‘There will be people who lived at, or visited, Dolphin Square from the early 1970s onwards who will have seen or heard something that they only now understand the significance of. Today I would like to ask former residents, current residents, or anyone who routinely went to Dolphin Square to think back and get in touch with us with any information they may have.’ The luxury estate has long been home to politicians, foreign dignitaries, and stars of stage and screen – as well as spies and glamour girls. Famous former residents include Harold Wilson and William Hague; Christine Keeler and Mandy Rice-Davies, key players in the Profumo Affair; and Sir Oswald Mosley, founder of the British Union of Fascists. Mystery: Police officers in Sussex are reviewing the disappearance and murder of eight-year-old Vishal Mehrotra (left). Right, his father Vishambar Mehrotra . Other venue: The Elm Guest House in South-West London, above, was frequented by VIPs and politicians where it is believed they abused vulnerable children . According to Nick, the estate also hosted sordid ‘parties’, where children were plied with whisky after being escorted from school. Unsolved: Martin Allen, 15, disappeared in 1979 . Det Supt McDonald said: ‘Today I want to appeal directly to those other young boys, now men, who were also subject to abuse at the hands of these men. ... I would ask you to trust me. I will support you, and do everything in my power to find those responsible and bring them to justice.’ Operation Midland falls under a wider umbrella of investigations, Operation Fairbank, exploring allegations of child abuse by VIPs. One of the most high-profile strands is Operation Fernbridge, concerning Elm Guest House. Tom Watson, the Labour MP who warned in Parliament two years ago that a paedophile ring was linked to No 10, said: ‘It will come as a great relief to Nick that his allegations are being fully investigated and taken seriously ... now is the time for any victims to speak to the police.’ Yesterday police also said they are probing claims that officers acted inappropriately in relation to child abuse probes from the mid-1970s until as recently as 2005. Last July it emerged that a dossier compiled by Geoffrey Dickens, naming Cyril Smith and other suspected Establishment paedophiles, had vanished after it was sent in 1983 to the then home secretary Leon Brittan. A recent Home Office inquiry failed to uncover the file, and Theresa May said she could not rule out a possible cover-up. The Government has planned an inquiry into the claims of a VIP paedophile ring – but is struggling to find a chairman. Lawyer Fiona Woolf and retired judge Baroness Elizabeth Butler-Sloss were both appointed but later had to step down due to their links to the Establishment.

By . Julian Robinson . The youngest person in Britain to survive a liver transplant has just celebrated her third birthday. Lottie Bryon-Edmond, from Torquay in Devon, was just five weeks old when she had the groundbreaking surgery. And now, during national transplant week, the toddler’s parents have found an unusual way to commemorate the heart-wrenching 15 days that they waited for an organ. Lottie Bryon-Edmond, pictured left in 2011 shortly after being born, had a life-saving liver transplant at just five-weeks-old. She is pictured right playing in a garden ahead of her third birthday . For the last two weeks, hundreds of green stars have been popping up all over the family’s hometown of Torquay in Devon, leaving residents bewildered. Today, Lottie’s parents Chris, 50, and Julie, 43, lifted the lid on the mysterious appearances and urged local people to sign the organ donation register. Mr Bryon-Edmond said: 'The colour represents the "I live I give" organisation which supports organ donation and the stars are symbolic of organ donors and their families. 'A man in a green star suit went around sticking them on houses, businesses and the Torquay model village to get people talking before the big reveal. 'The interest has been surreal and people have been desperate to get the stars - despite not knowing what they were. Happier times: Julie Bryon-Edmond and Chris Bryon-Edmond are pictured with their daughter Lottie almost three years on from her liver transplant . 'Businesses and individuals have offered to pay for them and the desperation has been a real throwback to the 15 days we waited for Lottie’s liver transplant. 'It’s on a totally different scale but the fervour seems to be the same.' Within days the stars had generated thousands of interested followers and many theories. 'Some people thought it was to do with the Fringe festival and others thought it was to raise money for cancer,' said Mr Bryon-Edmond. 'Other people just think the star man is a loony and they are the ones that are closest to the truth.' But despite the couple's unusual methods for raising awareness, their message is a very serious one. Their daughter was given just hours to live after being born with toxic levels of iron in her liver and endured an eight-hour operation with a 50/50 chance of survival. Lottie Bryon-Edmond was given just hours to live after being born with toxic levels of iron in her liver. She is pictured right wearing a t-shirt with the charity logo, 'I Live, I Give' 'We used to go back to our room and be panic-stricken because we didn’t know whether the next day Lottie would be dead or whether someone would say we have a liver,' Mr Bryon-Edmond added. 'You go in the next day and the little child in the next bed is dead. You have life and death thrust at you in the most horrendous fashion. 'Three people die every day because there aren’t enough organs to go around. 'Lottie came within inches of death but from looking at her you would never know in a month of Wednesdays. 'She’s here for a reason, this little one. She’s extraordinary.' | Lottie Bryon-Edmond was five weeks old when she had liver transplant .
She became youngest in Britain to have survived such a procedure .

] | Britain to survive a liver transplant has just celebrated her third birthday. Lottie Bryon-Edmond, from Torquay in Devon, was just five weeks old when she had the groundbreaking organ donation register. Mr Bryon-Edmond said: |
The spotlight in the HSBC affair last night fell on links between multi-millionaire Richard Caring and Tina Green – the wife of his close friend and billionaire clothing magnate Sir Philip Green. Socialite Mr Caring – who owns a string of London restaurants including The Ivy and the nightclub Annabel’s – visited a Geneva branch of the bank and withdrew £2.25million in cash. The transaction took place in September 2005 and was not flagged up by the lender. Scroll down for video . Friends: Sir Philip Green, Richard Caring, his wife Jackie Caring and Bill Clinton at a charity event in 2005. A spokesman for Sir Philip strongly denied his wife Tina had any link to Swiss HSBC accounts . The bank recorded only that Mr Caring planned to deposit the money ‘in a new a/c (account) with a separate institution in Geneva’. He last night insisted the money was for a business transaction with people who did not want to use HSBC. But according to bank files seen by the BBC’s Panorama and The Guardian, funds in the Swiss account originated from accounts in the tax haven of Monaco. These accounts, it is alleged, were controlled by Mr Caring but were held ‘in trust’ under the name of Tina Green, Sir Philip’s wife. However, a spokesman for Sir Philip said the allegations about his wife were untrue, adding: ‘No such account exists, or ever has done in the past.’ Denial: A spokesman for Sir Philip, pictured with his wife Tina, said: 'There are a number of serious inaccuracies and mistakes in the Guardian story' Leaked records from HSBC note that ‘RC goes to great lengths to maintain discretion’, and in July 2005, he had fallen out with the bank over a ‘currency shortfall’ on one account. After a ‘lengthy and challenging conversation’, the bank had been aware Mr Caring could send ‘funds from Monaco at a moment’s notice... However, they would be accompanied by instructions to close the account. He expects us to consider his global relationship.’ In the event, the bank recorded: ‘As we know, until now (Caring) has hesitated from holding the vast majority of his cash assets in his own name, preferring to accept the offer of Mrs Green that she holds them in trust on his behalf.’ The bank also recorded that Mr Caring, 62, held some £65.7million in offshore accounts and was also taking profits from an ‘anonymous’ 22 per cent holding in BHS. Mr Caring, a former Labour and Tory donor, has claimed hereditary ‘non-domiciled’ tax status through his US-born father, an American GI who settled in England after the Second World War. This, it has been suggested, enabled Mr Caring not to disclose the existence of his Swiss or Monaco bank accounts to the UK tax authorities, so he could avoid taxes on capital held abroad. The leaked files also show that Mr Caring used his tax free account to transfer $1million to Bill and Hillary Clinton’s charitable foundation – seemingly in return for the ex-US President’s attendance at a lavish Russian charity ball in 2005. The Guardian reports that HSBC’s notes contain an instruction to ‘transfer [$1m] to Bill Clinton’s Foundation as a contribution following his involvement in the charity function.’ Mr Caring has been friends with Sir Philip for many years and gave him a red Ferrari F430 for his 50th birthday. He once said of his relationship with the tycoon, 62: ‘I speak to him every day. We’re more than friends – I think we’d do anything for each other. We’re like brothers.’ Sir Philip and his wife are worth more than £5billion and split their time between London and a Monaco apartment. Mr Caring’s International Clothing Designs firm still supplies Sir Philip’s Topshop chain. Last month the Daily Mail contacted Sir Philip to ask about rumours he had been listed on the stolen HSBC computer disc as having an offshore account in Geneva. He replied: ‘For the record I have never had a Swiss bank account.’ He did not mention the Monaco account that it is now claimed is controlled by Mr Caring even though it is in the name of Tina Green. Spotlight: HSBC is facing scrutiny after a vast cache of Swiss bank account documents was leaked . Last night Mr Caring told the Mail he was angry at ‘insinuations’ regarding his dealings with HSBC. He insisted he has had ‘non-dom’ status for many years and it was a fact known to the UK tax authorities. ‘The revenue people have always known my non-dom status. I had some £100million in dividends from BHS at one stage and I paid £33million in regard to that matter and the revenue [HMRC] was happy that I didn’t owe a single penny more in tax. ‘The HSBC documents that have been widely referred to by the Guardian and others have been known to [HMRC] since 2010 and have not resulted in any taxable issues. ‘The insinuation that I would or want to evade tax is totally wrong. I have also never bullied the HSBC bank in terms of my dealings with them. Yes, I did withdraw more than £2 million from the bank and that was for a business transaction. ‘I appreciate it was a large amount of money but I was put in that position at the time because the people I was dealing with did not want to use HSBC in a particular transaction. ‘It was a business matter and I have not bullied anyone.’ Last night it emerged that Sir Philip was considering legal action against The Guardian in relation to claims about the HSBC row. A spokesman said: ‘There are a number of serious inaccuracies and mistakes in the Guardian story. People are allowed to have bank accounts abroad and people should ask some basic questions. ‘For instance, if you have a bank account in Switzerland and access to other accounts in that country there why on earth would you transfer funds from somewhere like Monaco. ‘For a number of reasons – including currency conversion – that would not make any sense at all. ‘People writing about the HSBC issue and Swiss bank accounts should be very careful as there has not been any impropriety.’ | Focus on links between Richard Caring and Sir Philip Green's wife Tina .

Ahead of Barcelona's titanic tussle with Manchester City in the Champions League on Tuesday night, we look back at seven classic encounters between the Spanish giants and English teams. Leeds 2-1 Barcelona (Apr 1975) Fifty-thousand crammed into Elland Road to see the world’s most expensive player Johan Cruyff in action in the European Cup semi-final first leg. However, goals from Billy Bremner and Allan Clarke gave Leeds a lead to take to the Nou Camp, where a 1-1 draw saw them into the final. Aston Villa 2-2 Barcelona (Mar 1978) Cruyff and Rafael Zuviria gave Barcelona a 2-0 lead at Villa Park in the UEFA Cup quarter-final first leg, but Villa refused to give up and Ken McNaught and John Deehan struck to salvage an impressive draw. Barcelona won the second leg 2-1. Newcastle 3-2 Barcelona (Sep 1997) Newcastle had a commanding lead over Louis van Gaal’s Super Cup holders within 50 minutes of their Champions League group match, thanks to a stunning hat-trick from Faustino Asprilla. Despite late goals from Luis Enrique and Luis Figo, the visitors slumped to a shock defeat. Newcastle midfielder David Batty slides in to tackle Barcelona's Giovanni Silva . Manchester Utd 3-3 Barcelona (Sep 1998) En route to their first Champions League title, Manchester United faced holders Barcelona in the group stage and quickly went 2-0 up through Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes. Barca fought back but a magnificent David Beckham free-kick made it 3-2, before Figo equalised from the spot. Manchester United midfielder David Beckham shoots past Barcelona's Michael Reiziger . Chelsea 1-1 Barcelona (May 2009) The performance of referee Tom Henning Ovrebo soured this Champions League semi-final second leg, which saw Andres Iniesta’s late leveller send Barcelona through after Michael Essien had put Chelsea in front with a stunning volley. Chelsea midfielder Michael Ballack screams at referee Tom Henning Ovrebo . Arsenal 2-2 Barcelona (Mar 2010) With Cesc Fabregas’ proposed move to Barca rumbling on in the background, tension was high between the clubs. Zlatan Ibrahimovic punished Arsenal’s backline twice in 13 minutes, but Theo Walcott turned the match. He scored and won a penalty, which Fabregas smashed home. Barcelona midfielder Xavi Hernandez holds off Arsenal duo Cesc Fabregas (left) and Denilson . Manchester Utd 1-3 Barcelona (May 2011) Wembley hosted a repeat of the 2009 Champions League final, but United failed to make home advantage count. A fine finish from Wayne Rooney pulled them level after Pedro’s opener, but Pep Guardiola and his side hit back with second-half goals from Lionel Messi and David Villa to secure a fourth title.

Washington (CNN) -- By wading into the issue of an Islamic center and mosque near ground zero, President Barack Obama provided Republicans with an emotion-ridden attack vehicle while diverting attention from campaign themes of fellow Democrats. A senior Republican strategist told CNN that GOP candidates are being encouraged to talk about the issue as much as possible. In Florida, Republican gubernatorial candidate Rick Scott launched a statewide television ad Monday criticizing Obama for backing the right of Muslims to build an Islamic center and mosque two blocks from where the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks killed more than 2,700 people. "Barack Obama says building a mosque at ground zero is about tolerance," Scott says in the ad, looking directly into the camera. "He's wrong. It's about truth." The "truth," Scott claims, is this: "Muslim fanatics murdered thousands of innocent Americans on 9/11, just yards from the proposed mosque." "The fight against terrorism isn't over," Scott concludes. "Mr. President, ground zero is the wrong place for a mosque." Meanwhile, a House Democratic leadership aide said the issue was dominating the political conversation when Democrats need to stress campaign themes such as economic recovery and saving social security. "We understand why the president would want to talk about this issue, but the timing couldn't have been any worse," the House Democratic leadership aide told CNN. Despite the concerns of Democrats, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada on Monday came out against building the Islamic center and mosque. "The First Amendment protects freedom of religion. Sen. Reid respects that but thinks that the mosque should be built some place else," said a statement issued by Reid's spokesman, Jim Manley. Reid is involved in a tough re-election campaign against conservative Republican Sharron Angle. The statement on the ground zero issue also called for Republicans to back a Democratic bill that would provide health care aid and compensation for firefighters, police officers and other first responders to the 9/11 attacks. For its part, the White House sought to tamp down the discussion Monday. Speaking to reporters, White House spokesman Bill Burton sidestepped a question on Republican strategy and tried to declare the debate over. "The president didn't do this because of the politics," Burton said, adding: "I think that it's a debate that was had and we've weighed in." On Sunday, the topic dominated morning talk shows, with Republicans calling Obama insensitive for supporting the right of Muslims to build the Islamic center so close to ground zero. Some predicted political repercussions for Democrats in November's congressional election, even though they agreed with Obama that freedom of religion is a vital part of American democracy. "The Muslims have, as everyone else does, the right to practice their religion and they have the right to construct a mosque at ground zero if they wish," Rep. Peter King, R-New York, said on CNN's "State of the Union" program. "What I'm saying, though, is they should listen to public opinion, they should listen to the deep wounds and anguish this is causing to so many good people." Republican strategist Ed Rollins, a senior political contributor to CNN, summed up the GOP perspective. "Intellectually, the president may be right, but this is an emotional issue, and people who lost kids, brothers, sisters, fathers, what have you, do not want that mosque in New York, and it's going to be a big, big issue for Democrats across this country," Rollins said on the CBS program "Face the Nation." On the same program, Democratic National Committee Chairman Tim Kaine challenged the Republican logic. "You know, we see an awful lot of Republicans going out and saying we've got to respect the Constitution, and that means we have to respect it," Kaine said. "We can't tarnish people's First Amendment rights." Democratic Gov. Ed Rendell of Pennsylvania said on the CBS program that the Islamic center issue shouldn't have political resonance. "I can't imagine that any American -- given the challenges facing this country -- is going to vote based on what he said about the mosque," Rendell said of the November election. "The mosque is an unfortunate situation, but we do have a right to practice our religion freely wherever we choose. Rights are not subject to the popular vote or majority vote." In his speech at a White House dinner Friday marking the start of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, Obama said Muslims "have the same right to practice their religion as anyone else in this country." "That includes the right to build a place of worship and a community center on private property in lower Manhattan, in accordance with local laws and ordinances," the president added. The next day, Obama told CNN Chief White House Correspondent Ed Henry that he was "not commenting on the wisdom" of the project, just the broader principle that the government should treat "everyone equal, regardless" of religion. His comments were considered by some to backtrack from what he said at the dinner, prompting a White House spokesman to further clarify the president's remarks later Saturday. Both the topic and Obama'sneed to clarify his initial remarks evoked criticism from Republicans. Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, told "FOX News Sunday" that Obama's stance demonstrated how "Washington, the White House, the administration, the president himself seems to be disconnected from the mainstream of America." "This is sort of the dichotomy that people sense, that they're being lectured to -- not listened to -- and I think that's the reason why a lot of people are very upset with Washington," Cornyn said. On the CNN program, King said Obama's lack of clarity further muddied the issue. "If the president was going to get into this, he should have been much more clear, much more precise, and you can't be changing your position from day to day on an issue which does go to our Constitution, and it also goes to extreme sensitivity," King said. Democrats responded that critics fail to distinguish between the al Qaeda terrorists who carried out the 9/11 attacks and the Islam religion, which includes peaceful adherents all over the world, including the United States. "It is only insensitive if you regard Islam as the culprit as opposed to al Qaeda as the culprit," Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-New York, said on the CNN program. "We were not attacked by all Muslims. .... There were Muslims killed there. There were Muslims who ran in as first responders to help." The issue was one of personal rights, not political popularity, Nadler said, adding: "We do not put the Bill of Rights, we do not put the religious freedom to a vote." The House Democratic leadership aide lamented that the topic was getting so much attention. "We were supposed to be talking about Social Security in this coming week," the aide said, referring to Democratic criticism of Republican calls to privatize the government-run pension program. "This is a really good issue for us. And instead, we're talking about the mosque." Obama's remarks Friday drew praise from New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who announced his support for the Islamic center last week. Bloomberg compared Obama's speech to a letter former President George Washington wrote more than two centuries ago in support of a Jewish congregation in Newport, Rhode Island. In the speech, Obama called the 9/11 attacks "a deeply traumatic event for our country." "The pain and suffering experienced by those who lost loved ones is unimaginable," Obama continued. "So I understand the emotions that this issue engenders. Ground zero is, indeed, hallowed ground." The Islamic center's leaders say they plan to build the $100 million, 13-story facility called Cordoba House two blocks from the site of the 9/11 attacks. The developer, Sharif el-Gamal, describes the project as an "Islamic community center" that would include a 500-seat performing arts center, a lecture hall, a swimming pool, a gym, a culinary school, a restaurant and a prayer space for Muslims. Nearly 70 percent of Americans oppose the plan, according to a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation Poll released Wednesday.

(CNN) -- A New Jersey man is under arrest after a routine traffic stop led to a search of his apartment and the discovery of bomb-making materials and weapons, Roselle Park police said. Travis Dulk, 27, was arrested early Wednesday morning and charged with unlawful possession of a weapon, unlawful possession of hollow-point ammunition and possession of cocaine and narcotics, according to police Chief Paul Morrison. Authorities seized weapons -- including an M4 assault rifle -- as well as hundreds of rounds of ammunition and canisters of black powder in a search of his apartment. "There was no bomb that would be readily available. There were materials that could be consistent of making a device," Morrison said of the items discovered. "There were at least 10-12 fully loaded magazines on a table, in plain view," the chief added. Dulk was stopped on a traffic violation around 4 p.m. Tuesday near the New Jersey Garden State Parkway, a statement from the police department said. Police became suspicious after noticing 9 mm bullets on the floor of the driver's side of the vehicle, the chief said. When he was searched, Dulk was found to being carrying a handgun loaded with hollow-point bullets, as well as several bags of cocaine and prescription drugs, the police statement said. Dulk initially consented to having his apartment searched but later changed his mind, Morrison said. Police got a search warrant and, with a bomb squad, conducted a midnight raid of the apartment. The apartment complex was also evacuated. Police are investigating whether the weapons recovered were legally purchased. Dulk is being held at the county jail on $115,000 bail as the investigation continues. It was not immediately clear whether he had legal representation. | Dulk was stopped for a traffic violation, police say .

Sir Andrew Green of MigrationWatch said the findings would affect Labour policy . Millions of Labour voters have deserted the party in protest over mass immigration. A poll reveals that nearly eight in ten former Labour voters support drastic curbs on migrant numbers. It also shows huge support for sharp cuts in arrivals among those who have remained with the party. In 1997, some 13.5million voted for Labour, but by the 2010 election that had fallen to 8.6million. Analysis of the views of some of the five million ‘lost’ Labour voters by YouGov shows 78 per cent want net migration cut to zero. That policy would mean foreign migrants would be allowed in only to replace people who left – in effect, a one-in-one-out rule. The YouGov poll, published in Prospect magazine, interviewed thousands of Labour 'defectors'. Pollsters also found that two-thirds of Labour party loyalists backed zero net migration. Sir Andrew Green, chairman of the MigrationWatch think tank, said: 'This is stunning research which is bound to affect Labour’s immigration policies. 'We will see whether they have the courage to declare a limit on immigration or whether they try to duck this essential issue. The track record so far is not encouraging.' Ed Miliband signalled this month that he wanted more done to tackle immigration, saying low-skilled immigration into Britain was 'too high'. But the Labour leader offered no policy proposals for how he would fix the problem. Labour’s open-door migration policy led to the largest population explosion in Britain since the Saxon invasion. Between 1997 and 2010 the foreign-born population of the UK increased by three million, while nearly a million British citizens left the country. Last year net migration stood at 216,000, down from 252,000 in 2010. Home Secretary Theresa May has imposed a cap on migrant worker numbers and led a crackdown on family migration and bogus students.

A Syrian refugee who doused herself with petrol and set herself on fire after her aid was cut by the United Nations, was a victim of a lack of funding for the world body's work, an official for the organisation has said. Mariam al-Khawli, who fled to Lebanon from Syria with her husband and four children two years ago, set herself on fire outside U.N. offices last week in frustration at living without the food and cash lifeline provided by the organisation since August. While a teenager from central Syria became the millionth Syrian refugee to register in Lebanon today, earlier in the week Khawli explained how help given to her by the U.N. from August 2012 was stopped in August 2013. SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO . Mariam al-Khawli, who fled Syria with her husband and four children two years ago, set herself on fire last week in frustration at living without aid from the United Nations . A U.N. official has said Khawli was the victim of a lack of funding for the world body's work . She said: 'They told us they wouldn't cut support for those who have medical cases - my husband had a lung abscess and does not work.' Three of her children also have a blood condition and the family had relied on the aid. 'I chose death, I chose death rather than seeing my children die a million times in front of me,' she told a CNN reporter. Her story has become well known over the past days, after appearing in news outlets in Lebanon. 'I only told them food and beverage, we really got hungry,' she told Reuters. 'My four children are studying in schools, I said they can't work, their health situation doesn't allow them to work. 'I want them to study so they can get a job and relax, but they burned my heart before they burned my body. They burned my heart from the inside.' Her doctor, Gabriel al-Sabeh, said 70 . per cent of Khawli's body was now covered in burns and that she could . remain in hospital for months if she survives. Ninette . Kelley, regional representative for Lebanon at the Office of the United . Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, said: 'Right now we have close . to 1 million refugees and we are able to do a lot with the funding we . receive but we simply do not have enough.' Khawli's doctor, Gabriel al-Sabeh, said 70 per cent of her body was now covered in burns and that she could remain in hospital for months if she survives . She said Khawli's case was 'a very sorrowful reflection of the enormous desperation and need of the refugee community and it is also a telling reminder of the consequences of the Syrian emergency and the unfolding crisis here in Lebanon'. She said the agency had been in touch with Khawli's family 'for many, many months', but gave no details of why the funds were cut or how many other families might have been affected. U.N. aid teams in Lebanon give aid to the most vulnerable first and makes regular checks on families who are not covered, Kelley said. Last month, Lebanon's foreign minister said the crisis was 'threatening the existence of Lebanon', still recovering from its own bloody 15-year civil war that ended in 1990. Syrian beggars now walk the streets of Beirut and informal tented settlements have sprung up around the country. Khawli's husband is unable to work due to a lung abscess and three of her children have a blood condition. The family had relied on the aid . Syrian rebels and their Lebanese allies fight openly with the army and militants from the Lebanese Hezbollah militia, which supports Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in a war now in its fourth year. The United Nations says 2.5 million Syria refugees have registered in total, more than 10 per cent of Syria's population. Lebanon holds the largest number but Syrians have also fled to Turkey, Jordan, Iraq, Egypt and elsewhere. A U.N. appeal for $1.7 billion in 2014 to help the refugees is only 14 per cent funded, Kelley said. The mounting cost of the refugee crisis is also a major challenge for Lebanon's new government, which has to deal with strained public infrastructure as the Syrians seek housing, food, and healthcare at a time of economic slowdown in Lebanon. Showing how the conflict is spilling over, two missiles on Wednesday hit Al-Labwa, a Shi'ite town in Lebanon that has been hit before by Sunni militants in retaliation for Shi'ite Hezbollah's role in Syria. The strikes are the latest in a series of missile attacks, bomb explosions and gun fights that have grown as the Syria conflict has become increasingly sectarian. | Mariam al-Khawli fled Syria with husband and four children two years ago .

Scroll down for video . These stark aerial images show how dozens of homes in southern California were buried under unstoppable rock and mudslides this weekend. The community of Camarillo Springs, north of Los Angeles, was hit hard as boulder-strewn rivers of mud swept down hillsides that a wildfire had stripped of vegetation last year. The rocks and roots pushed into bedrooms, straight on through to the living room, cracking front windows. An earthmover that had been brought in ahead of the storm to clear debris was buried as well, with just its big mechanical arm left sticking up out of the muck. 'It's $200,000 (of equipment) sitting under there,' said heavy equipment mechanic Tony Morris. 'It was good at 11:30 when I left last night.' These stark aerial images show how dozens of homes in southern California were buried under unstoppable rock and mudslides this weekend . One of the areas hardest hit on Friday was the community of Camarillo Springs, north of Los Angeles, where boulder-strewn rivers of mud swept down hillsides that a wildfire had stripped of vegetation last year . The rocks and roots pushed into bedrooms, straight on through to the living room, cracking front windows . Ten homes in the community surrounding a golf course 50 miles northwest of Los Angeles, were red-tagged, indicating they were uninhabitable and off-limits, according to the Ventura County Fire Department. Three homes were yellow-tagged, meaning they were uninhabitable but residents could enter to retrieve items. Another three had lesser damage. About 1,000 homes were placed under evacuation orders in the Los Angeles suburb of Glendora, where mudslides from a wildfire-burned area there left several roads impassable overnight, police Lieutenant Matt Williams said. 'It's amazing how much rock actually slid down the hill,' said sheriff's Capt. Don Aguilar. Former Republican Rep. Elton Gallegly told KCAL-TV his house was destroyed by the debris flow. 'I don't know if there's anything salvageable,' he said.

'It's quite an earth-moving operation,' said Elton Gallegly, whose wife's family owns one of the damaged homes and who stopped by Saturday to check on progress. Gallegly, a former congressman, said work crews using a huge backhoe and several other vehicles told him they hoped to clear the road in front of the houses by dark. Though he was impressed by the 'incredible progress,' he thought that timeline was ambitious - and it still wouldn't mean the removal of tons of muck surrounding the homes. The neighborhood's trouble was rooted in a fire that erupted nearby along U.S. 101 on May 2, 2013, as a dry and gusty Santa Ana wind pushed back moist breezes from the nearby ocean, sent humidity plunging to withering levels and fanned flames across the west end of the Santa Monica Mountains. About 2,000 homes were threatened by flames and 15 sustained damage, but none was destroyed. When it was over, the fire had burned to the beach at Point Mugu and 44 square miles of rugged terrain were left devoid of protective vegetation. Ted and Rita Elliot placed 400 sandbags around the back of their Camarillo Springs home and it was spared. On Friday they stood in their backyard looking at destruction next door. 'Wow, are we lucky!' said Ted. 'We'll be the only house on the block,' said Rita. The living room of a home is covered in about two feet of mud and rocks in Camarillo Springs .

The Pacific storm pounded Southern California with heavy rain and high winds on Friday, triggering a small tornado, flash floods and mudslides that prompted the evacuation of hundreds of homes, damaged dozens of others and disrupted passenger rail services along the coast. One person was found dead on Friday in a rain-swollen flood-control channel in the Orange County town of Garden Grove, which could mark the third storm-related fatality on the West Coast since Thursday. Separately, rescue teams saved two people after they were swept away in the fast-moving Los Angeles River near a homeless encampment, the Los Angeles Fire Department said in Twitter messages. High winds tore down power lines throughout the region, leaving as many as 78,000 customers without electricity at one point after the storm moved in before dawn, utility officials reported. In an unusual phenomenon for Southern California, a small tornado touched down in South Los Angeles, where it damaged the roofs of an apartment complex and two houses and ripped up a billboard, said National Weather Service Specialist Stuart Seto. The twister was an EF0, the smallest category possible, and no one was hurt, he said.

The severe weather, which included thunderstorms, was spawned by a storm system dubbed a 'pineapple express,' a large low-pressure area that siphoned vast amounts of moisture from the tropical Pacific near the Hawaiian islands and dumped it on the West Coast as it moved over land, the National Weather Service said .

Homeowner Elton Gallegly walks through his home on Friday after a mud slide came down on his neighborhood overnight . People were evacuated from 124 homes in the county to escape the mudslide, and no injuries were reported . The tornado was the first in Los Angeles since 2004, according to USTornadoes.com which tracks twisters. Weather Service meteorologists could not confirm that. A water spout, which is like a tornado but occurs over water, was sighted over the ocean near Los Angeles International Airport on Friday morning, and another one formed 35 miles (56 kms) to the southeast off Newport Beach. The severe weather, which included thunderstorms, was spawned by a storm system dubbed a 'pineapple express,' a large low-pressure area that siphoned vast amounts of moisture from the tropical Pacific near the Hawaiian islands and dumped it on the West Coast as it moved over land, the National Weather Service said. The same storm pummeled the Pacific Northwest and the northern half of California on Thursday with downpours and gale-force gusts that caused widespread power outages and disrupted commercial flights in San Francisco. The highest rainfall measured was at San Marcos Pass, just north of Santa Barbara, where more than 5 inches (12 cm) fell. Downtown Los Angeles had more than 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) of rain. Harsh weather was blamed for two deaths on Thursday in Oregon. In southern Oregon near Ashland, a homeless man camping with his 18-year-old son was killed when a tree toppled onto their tent. Portland police said a tree fell on a car that then swerved into another tree, killing a boy who was a passenger. It was not known whether the body in Garden Grove was a weather-related fatality or a victim who died of some other cause and was washed into the flood channel, officials said. The storm was expected to provide little relief from the multi-year drought that has forced sharp cutbacks in irrigation supplies to farmers and conservation measures across California. | Mudslides damaged dozens of homes and forced hundreds of people to evacuate in Camarillo Springs .

On the 20th anniversary of the brutal murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman, the voices of two victims are conspicuously silent - those of Nicole's children. Justin and Sydney Simpson were just five and eight respectively when their mother was found brutally murdered alongside her friend at her Los Angeles home on June 12, 1994. Days later, their father OJ Simpson was charged with the murders then later acquitted following a televised, eight-month trial which gripped the nation. Their aunt Tanya Brown, Nicole's youngest sister, has spoken this week about the close bond she shares with her niece and nephew and how despite the tragedy they have endured, the pair have grown into happy, well-adjusted adults.

New Zealand head coach Steve Hansen regards Stuart Lancaster's England as the most improved team in Test rugby and refuses to view their series opener as a foregone conclusion. Preparations for the first Test at Eden Park have been undermined by a debilitating injury list and the absence of players from Aviva Premiership finalists Northampton and Saracens. It has weakened England for the toughest assignment in the game, but the All Blacks, who on Sunday named a 31-man squad for the series, are ready to face a growing force in the international arena.

'Those who think England will be fielding a weak side in the first Test are completely underestimating the quality of depth in the England squad. 'Make no mistake, England have a very strong desire and belief that they can win this series. Having said that, so do the All Blacks. Hansen (right) said that it would be unwise to underestimate England . Strong: Hansen called Stuart Lancaster's side as the most improved in the world . 'This series gives both teams a great opportunity to put a stake in the ground, not only this year, but also for the 2015 World Cup. 'This will add to the pressure on both sides in the upcoming series.' World Cup-winning captain Richie McCaw leads a squad missing fly-half Dan Carter, who is been on a sabbatical from the sport. Centre Malakai Fekitoa and lock Patrick Tuipulotu are newcomers to the All Blacks, while veteran back rows Jerome Kaino and Victor Vito return to the fold after spells away.

The property was on the market for sale last year. With a whopping price tag of $90million (£56million), it was unsurprisingly dubbed New York's most expensive house. The mansion, which at 35ft wide has been completely renovated into a pre-war style, was bought in 1995 for a mere $6million (£3.7million) by the late gym magnate Lucille Roberts, when it was used as a men's gym.

(CNN) -- Indonesia celebrated a unique birth this weekend in the form of a baby Sumatran rhino -- only the fifth known to have been born in captivity ever. The rare arrival took place at the Sumatran Rhino Sanctuary in the Way Kambas National Park in Sumatra province, making Indonesia the third country to have successfully bred the species in captivity. There are less than 200 Sumatran rhinos remaining in the world, according to the International Rhino Foundation (IRF), making it the most endangered of all rhino species. Aside from a dozen or so in Malaysia's Sabah province, the Sumatran rhinos reside in three national parks in Indonesia. The critical endangered species is most threatened by poaching for its horns and destruction of its natural habitat. These factors have contributed to an estimated reduction in its numbers of more than 50% over the last two decades, the IRF said. The father of Indonesia's newborn calf is actually one of three Sumatran Rhinos bred in captivity at the Cincinnati Zoo in the United States. Andalus was born in 2001, some 112 years after the first known captive birth at Calcutta Zoo in India in 1889. Saturday's birth was welcomed by rhino conservationists, following two miscarriages by Andalas' partner, Ratu, since their pairing in 2009. "It's really a big present for the Sumatran rhino breeding efforts as we know that this is a very rare species which have some difficulties in their reproduction," Masyhud, a forestry ministry spokesman, told reporters, in quotes carried by Agence France Presse. | Sumatran rhino born in Indonesia, the fifth known to have been born in captivity ever .

Painted with cartoon characters and strewn with moss, these are the crumbling remains of a psychiatric hospital which has lain derelict for 15 years. Upturned chairs and tables are strewn across the waterlogged floors of Mid Wales Hospital, which was a secluded home for mental health patients in the Brecon Beacons for almost 100 years. Opened in 1903, it was designed to be self-sufficient with private water, electricity, heating and sewerage systems, along with a farm where patients - many of whom were misunderstood and would never be allowed to leave - grew their own food. Scroll down for video . Deserted: Mid Wales Hospital cared for mental health patients for almost a century, but it is now waterlogged and strewn with moss . History: There are still cartoon characters on the walls of the hospital, which shut 15 years ago thanks to its isolated location . Rubble: Owner Phil Collins tried to demolish the £720,000 hospital site three years ago, but national park chiefs refused to give consent . Unnerving: One of the abandoned rooms at the hospital, which opened in 1903 and was arranged in an unusual symmetrical pattern . But it lost out in NHS restructuring because of its isolated location near the market town of Talgarth, Powys, and the last ward shut in 1999. Despite the passage of time and two new owners, VHS tapes are still left spilling out of a broken cardboard box, while other images show wallpaper peeling away from the slime-covered walls. There were failed plans to turn the 11-acre site into a business park until it was sold on to developer Phil Collins for £720,000 in March 2011. His grand scheme was to build 100 houses and a care home on the site of the hospital - but Mr Collins, of Pontrilas, Herefordshire, was defeated by angry neighbours who said it would compromise the beauty of the national park. Supported by groups including Save Britain's Heritage, the Brecon Beacons National Park Authority rejected his bid to demolish the hospital two years ago and it now sits in limbo, full of asbestos. Archaic: Parts of the dirty floor are strewn with abandoned VHS tapes which have spilled out of a water-damaged cardboard box . Controversy: There were plans to turn the 11-acre site into 100 houses and a care home, but they were seen off by furious neighbours . The doctor will see you now: Empty chairs sit unclaimed in the old consulting rooms and offices, surrounded by moss and peeling paint . Crumbling: Parts of the Edwardian building have disintegrated since the closure of the NHS hospital, which once had its own farm . The campaigners have since taken Wales' National Assembly politicians round the site, which is now a stomping ground for urban explorers, in a bid to show how crucial it is to the nation's history. But Mr Collins has said it was 'completely mad' to prevent the hospital being knocked down - especially as it has failed to be listed by Cadw, the Welsh equivalent of English Heritage. He added: 'The petition is being driven by a small group of people working together and who prepare a petition simply because they do not want something to happen. The petition is highly simplistic as it only offers one viewpoint... with no knowledge of the site.' Originally called the Brecon and Radnor Joint Counties Lunatic Asylum, the hospital was built for £126,000 and opened in March 1903. Performing the opening ceremony, Lord Glanusk reportedly said: 'Everything has been done that human ingenuity could devise for the happiness and safety of the inmates, and under the blessing of God, for their speedy restoration to health.' The hospital had residential wards, a large recreation and dining hall, kitchens, workshops and a tailor, bakery and shoe-maker. By 1914, it was one of 102 registered 'lunatic asylums' across Britain, many of them beautifully-designed Victorian buildings. Theatrics: The fully-functional psychiatric hospital once cared for hundreds of patients and has a stage on which they could perform . Eerie: The brickwork is exposed in the corridors, left to rack and ruin as developers tried first to build a business park, then 100 homes . Ramshackle: The hospital was under the control of the NHS for 51 years, bringing with it art, occupational therapy and mixed-sex wards . Messy: The hospital was also home to the Mid and West Wales College of Nursing and Midwifery and an alcohol and drug abuse clinic . The Brecon asylum was even noted for its large windows, which gave patients wide views over the beautiful Welsh countryside. But Britain's attitude to mental health was far from idyllic - with fewer than half of patients being discharged from 'asylums', with many misunderstood by the authorities or given controversial treatments such as electric shock therapy. In 1948 the hospital became part of the newly-formed NHS, bringing with it art, occupational therapy and the integration of the sexes, who had occupied opposite sides of the symmetrical complex. The site also became home to the Mid and West Wales College of Nursing and Midwifery and the Powys Drugs & Alcohol Council for substance misuse. When the derelict building was given a reprieve, Save Britain's Heritage President Marcus Binney said: ‘The nation’s disused mental hospitals have been the focus of one of our longest and most sustained campaigns. 'Many were designed by leading architects, very well-built of very excellent materials and sited on south-facing slopes to enjoy maximum fresh air and sunlight. All over Britain, one developer after another has proved they can be successfully converted.’ Snub: Despite protests by history-lovers, the building failed in its bid to be listed by Cadw, the Welsh equivalent of English Heritage . History: The hospital pictured in the days when it was fully operational. It was built to afford wide views over the Brecon Beacons . | There were failed attempts to turn derelict Mid Wales Hospital in Brecon Beacons into homes and a business park .
It opened in 1903 and was one of more than 100 'lunatic asylums' in Britain - but lost out because of rural location .

A 98-year-old millionaire claims he and his wife were lured into paying $12 million to California's Chapman University then the school did not stick to their agreement. Real estate mogul James Emmi accuses university president James Doti of putting undue pressure on him to sign a contract without the consent of his 84-year-old wife, Catherine. In a suit that alleges breach of contract, fraud, deceit and elder abuse, Mr and Mrs Emmi, of Orange County, demand that the university return all $3 million of the donation already transferred, surrender their claim to the remaining $9 million, and pay $3 million in damages. Demands: James and Catherine Emmi (seated) claimed Chapman University president James Doti (center) pressured Mr Emmi into signing a contract to donate $12 million to the school after 'wining and dining' him . 'They really confused him and they pressured him,' said James Bohm, the Emmis' attorney, told The OC Register. 'They wined and dined him, and they took advantage of his advanced age.' It comes after the university failed to mention the couple at a recent graduation event, instead thanking another donor who gifted $15 million, the LA Times reported. Furthermore, the civil suit claims, the university was not on track to build The Emmi Science Center by 2016, which was stipulated in the contract. According to court papers, Mr Emmi was continually hounded by university officials for donations after he gifted $450,000 toward a new science center in 2009. The couple claim they rejected a request for $15 million toward a technology center in 2012. In 2013, over tea, Mr Emmi is said to have consented to donate $12 million to the university's science center, on the grounds that it would be in his name. 'Undue pressure': Mr Emmi, 98, claims Mr Doti took advantage of his old age in a 2013 meeting over tea . 'Broken promises': The couple claim the university was not on track to build a center by 2016 as promised . The university promised full-scale media coverage of the gift and said it would be built by 2016, Mr Emmi states. 'Chapman University is deeply saddened by the misstatements in the complaint filed by the Emmis,' Chapman spokeswoman Mary Platt said in a statement. 'Mr. James Emmi has been a close friend of both President James Doti and the university. The allegations do not reflect what occurred and completely mischaracterize the Emmis' interactions with the university.' | Real estate mogul James Emmi, 98, and his wife Catherine, 84, claim California's Chapman University took advantage of them .

Jose Mourinho was seething after a decision to send off Branislav Ivanovic led to Chelsea conceding a last-minute equaliser at Manchester United.

By . Amanda Williams . PUBLISHED: . 09:11 EST, 26 February 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 02:38 EST, 27 February 2013 . A mother and daughter have today been jailed after dealing crack cocaine from an alleyway. Terry Beaumont, 51, and her daughter Jane Leonard, 33, appeared at Teesside Crown Court alongside two others involved in conspiracy to supply Class A drugs. Prosecutor Sue Jacobs told the court that police had observed the home of Leonard over three days in February last year and saw both mother and daughter, as well as co-defendant Jake Hutchinson, meeting people in the alleyway to the back of the house. Mother and daughter Terry Beaumont, 51, and Jane Leonard, 33 (pictured right and left at Teesside Crown Court today) were jailed for two and a half years each today after being caught dealing crack cocaine in an alleyway . Officers . stopped Beaumont in the alley behind the house in central . Stockton-on-Tees, and found her carrying a package of crack cocaine. When they went into the home, a fourth defendant - Alex Ibbotson, 21 - was seen throwing more packages of crack - with a street value of £505 - on to the floor. He had a further £657 worth of the drug hidden on his person. Hutchinson, 19, had also been seen throwing packages to the floor. These were found to be heroin worth £74. A small amount of tamazepam was also found. More crack was found on Beaumont and around the home. Mrs Jacobs said the overall value of the drugs recovered was £1,254 of crack cocaine and £85 of heroin. Ibbotson, of Blackbush Walk, Thornaby, Stockton, Leonard, now of Norcliffe Street, North Ormesby, Middlesbrough, and Beaumont, of Green's Beck Road, Hartburn, in Stockton, pleaded guilty to conspiring to supply crack cocaine. Hutchinson denied this charge. Hutchinson, of Sun Gardens, Thornaby, Leonard and Beaumont admitted conspiring to supply heroin between the same dates. Ibbotson denied this charge. Hutchinson also admitted possession of the Class C drug tamazepam. Mrs Jacobs said all pleas were accepted. The pair appeared at Teesside Crown Court alongside two others involved in conspiracy to supply Class A drugs . Paul Abrahams, defending Leonard, said his client had played a 'lesser role' and added: 'She, and it would appear her mother, have been used by others to sell drugs. They are the ones that go out.' Sean Grainger, for Beaumont, said: 'Her position is she was simply passing on drugs so she could get drugs from people further up the chain.' Robert Mochrie, defending Ibbotson and Hutchinson, said both his clients accepted they faced an immediate jail term and asked for credit for their early guilty pleas. Judge Peter Armstrong jailed Beaumont and Leonard for two-and-a-half years and Ibbotson for three-and-a-half years. Hutchinson was sent to a young offenders' institution for two-and-a-half years. The judge said: 'This sort of drug dealing results in immediate custodial sentences. 'As has been said, the main mitigation, if not the only mitigation, is you pleaded guilty at the first available opportunity and, as such, you are entitled to a third from the sentence.' After the hearing Detective Constable Max Leonard, of the Stockton drugs unit, said: 'This gang who blighted the streets of Stockton by dealing drugs from back alleys were caught following an intelligence-led operation.

LONDON, England (CNN) -- Harry Patch -- the last surviving British soldier from World War I -- died Saturday at the age of 111, Britain's Ministry of Defence said. Harry Patch, pictured here on November 11, 2008, at an Armistice Day commemoration ceremony in London. Patch died peacefully at his care home in the southwestern English city of Wells, the ministry announced. His death came a week after fellow British World War I veteran Henry Allingham died at the age of 113. Patch was the last surviving soldier to have witnessed the horrors of trench warfare in the first World War . He fought and was seriously wounded in Ypres, Belgium, in 1917 at the Battle of Passchendaele, in which 70,000 of his fellow soldiers died -- including three of his close friends. Born in 1898, Patch became a plumber before being conscripted to the army in 1916. After training, Patch was recruited to The Duke of Cornwall's Light Infantry as a Lewis gunner assistant. The unit was rushed to the front line trenches of Ypres, where soldiers were urgently needed to replace those who were wounded and dying by the thousand. He fought in the trenches between June and September of 1917 and was involved in some of the fiercest fighting of the war. In late September he was wounded when a light shell exploded above his head, bringing an end to his military service. He received battlefield treatment without anesthetic. After the war, Harry returned to his work as a plumber and later became a sanitary engineer. He married Ada Billington, a young girl he met while convalescing after the battle. They married in 1919 and had two sons. In World War II, Patch joined the Auxiliary Fire Service and helped tackle the fires caused by heavy German raids on the English cities of Bath and Bristol. At one point, he was sent to organize sanitary arrangements for soldiers at a camp near Yeovil, where he became friendly with some of the men. Patch remembered the shock of finding the camp deserted, with coffee still hot and meals half-eaten, on the morning that the soldiers had gone off to France, the Ministry of Defence said. His wife, Ada, died in 1976, and their two sons also later died. Patch remarried in 1980, but he became a widower for the second time four years later. Patch didn't speak about the war until he turned 100, the Ministry of Defence said. "He tried to suppress the memories and to live as normal a life as possible; the culture of his time said that he was fortunate to have survived and that he should get on with his life," a Ministry of Defence biography says. "That suited Harry; he could 'forget' his demons, the memories of what happened to him and to his close friends." In 1998, a television producer with an interest in the war talked to Patch, who then made the decision to speak of his memories, the Ministry of Defence said. He took part in a documentary on the war and began gradually to open up. It wasn't long before Patch became a spokesman for his generation, speaking about the horrors of the war as well as his own emotions and reactions, the Ministry of Defence said. "In speaking about his experiences, Harry began at last to come to terms with his war, and was at peace with himself and his memories," the Defence Ministry said. "His thoughts then turned to reconciliation, to the long-term effects of suffering and coming to terms with that suffering." Patch returned to Belgium in 2002, something he had said he would never do, and laid a wreath to his battalion, the Defence Ministry said. Two years later, he met and shook hands with a German artilleryman from the Western Front, Charles Kuentz. Patch later laid a wreath at Langemark Cemetery for the German war dead. In his last years, Patch was honored at Buckingham Palace and the prime minister's residence at 10 Downing Street. On his 101st birthday France awarded him the Knighthood of the Legion of Honor, and this year President Nicolas Sarkozy upgraded that to the rank of officer. Last year, King Albert II of Belgium made Patch a Knight of the Order of Leopold. "Harry was delighted to receive these awards and wore the medals with great pride, but he always made it clear that he wore these medals as a representative of the selfless generation he had come to represent," the Ministry of Defence said. Patch wrote a book detailing his life in 2007, called "The Last Fighting Tommy." The name referred to the slang term for British privates. "While the country may remember Harry as a soldier, we will remember him as a dear friend," said Jim Ross, a close friend. "He was a man of peace who used his great age and fame as the last survivor of the trenches to communicate two simple messages: Remember with gratitude and respect those who served on all sides, (and) settle disputes by discussion, not war." Gen. Richard Dannatt, the chief of the general staff, issued a statement expressing his sadness about Patch's death. "Self-effacing about his experiences in the trenches he was no less effective in describing the horror they represented when invited to speak to schoolchildren about the realities of war." Dannatt said. "He was the last of a generation that in youth was steadfast in its duty in the face of cruel sacrifice and we give thanks for his life -- as well as those of his comrades -- for upholding the same values and freedom that we continue to cherish and fight for today." | Harry Patch, dead at 111, was last British survivor of World War One trench warfare .

By . Emma Reynolds . PUBLISHED: . 08:02 EST, 25 October 2012 . | . UPDATED: . 10:03 EST, 25 October 2012 . Whatever design you carve into your pumpkin this Halloween, it's likely you'll be using a knife. Not so 'Wild' Bill Hickok, who finds a Colt 1911 the most practical 'household tool' to use for the job. This dramatic video shows Hickok, from Nashville, Tennessee, peppering the smooth surface of the harmless vegetable with gunfire to create a spooky Halloween decoration. Scroll down for video . The future's orange: 'Wild' Bill Hickok shows off his Colt 1911 and announces his plans for the defenceless vegetable . Good aim: First Hickok fires several bullets into the centre of the pumpkin to create a nose . Scarily accurate: Next the father shoots two eyes into the pumpkin's vulnerable flesh . Speak no evil: The last stage is creating a wonky mouth-shape to complete the traditional Halloween decoration in a very non-traditional manner . First he blasts out two eyeholes, then a nose and then a crooked mouth, which looks as though it has one rotting tooth. The popular video has now been viewed by almost 200,000 people on his YouTube channel. It shows Hickok balancing a pumpkin on a tree stump, saying: 'Hey, Hickok 45 here, at the Hickok . compound. 'It's pumpkin carving time again and like last year we're . going to use another common household tool, the Colt 1911. Let's get at it.' Looking a fright: The brightly coloured squash looks battered but certainly has more character . Don't try this at home: Hickok shows the viewer the face that his 'carving' method has left in the back of the vegetable . He then aims his gun at the gourd, exclaiming 'All right!' and 'Nice. The right tool for the job.' The Colt 1911, also known as the M1911, was designed by John Browning in 1911 and is still widely used today. It was a standard-issue firearm for U.S. armed forces from its origination until 1985, and is still used by the military in as many as 28 countries. The single-action, semi-automatic pistol is popular for its stopping power, reliability, durability, accuracy and feel. It is considered very collectible. His final verdict? 'Handsome, looks a bit like me.' Then he turns it around, adding: 'There's a face on the back! Look at that. How'd that happen? 'Oh well. happy Halloween.' Hickok has something of a history when it comes to attacking the simple squash, having made several other videos that he claims provide 'an education that should be taught in school'. In 'Pumpkin Killing Methods III', he is seen stamping, sawing, slicing, crushing and shredding them. He uses hammers, breeze blocks, machine guns and even runs one over with a motorbike. His techniques are unlikely to appear at a children's carving session any time soon.

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Independent Sen. Joe Lieberman, a former Democrat who sits with Democratic caucus, said Tuesday that he would not rule out running for re-election in 2012 as a Republican. Lieberman angered his colleagues in the Democratic caucus this week by threatening to torpedo health care legislation if it contains a government-run public health insurance or an expansion of Medicare. Lieberman said he wasn't sure which party, if any, he would represent in his next election. "I like being an independent, so that's definitely a possibility," the Connecticut senator said. "But I'd say all options are open." He called running as a Republican "unlikely" but added that he wouldn't "foreclose any possibility." "I've reached the stage in my career where I'm not measuring every step I take based on how it's going to affect the next election," Lieberman said. "I think if you do that, you end up compromising the quality of your service." In 2000, Lieberman was Al Gore's running mate when Democrats lost the closest presidential national election in U.S. history. Six years later, he was defeated in the Democratic primary and then ran as an independent to win re-election to the Senate. Lieberman still sits with the Democratic caucus, which holds 60 seats in the 100-member Senate, the minimum amount necessary to overcome a filibuster. That dynamic allowed Lieberman to assert his will in the health care debate by threatening to join a Republican filibuster if the health care bill contained the public option or Medicare expansion he opposes. He acknowledged that his stance angered Democratic colleagues but said he acted on principle, not politics. "I knew some of them were upset about positions I'd taken," Lieberman said. "But like each of them, I didn't get elected by telling my voters in Connecticut that I would follow the majority of my caucus even if I thought on some things they were wrong. We each have to do what we think is right." Taking a stand in the polarized political environment means "a bunch of people will think you've done something great and a bunch of people will think you've done something awful," Lieberman said. However, Lieberman's stance on the health care bill could prompt a backlash from liberal Democrats. He was criticized by liberal groups, and even his wife -- who formerly worked for a pharmaceutical company -- was targeted. "I've done what I thought was right, but it's no fun to have your colleagues be angry at you," Lieberman said. "It's no fun to have your wife attacked. But, you know, you got to do what you think is right." | Independent senator's stance on health care has angered some Democrats .

Designer Joe Manus has created a revolutionary piece of furniture: a rocking bed, encased in a circular frame, to lull you gently to sleep. Joe wanted the bed's motion to mimic a baby being rocked to sleep. He says he wanted to create a space where you could: 'Dream your dreams, love your lover, and rest your soul.' Rock-a-bye baby: Joe Manus built the Rocking Bed, designed to help people drift off to sleep . Built for indoor slumber or stargazing outside, the Rocking Bed comes with a rubber stop that allows you to lock the bed in place or let it move freely. We'd advise using it on hilly terrain. The design can even be tweaked to fit your taste: the carbon steel frame can be blackened, brushed or even be replaced with wood and is available in twin, full, king and queen sizes. But a peaceful night's sleep doesn't come cheap: this quirky piece of furniture, available on Shinerinternational.com, will set you back £1980.95.

By . David Mercer . Hundreds of dangerous dogs were destroyed last year after being seized by police, new figures have shown. Some of the country’s biggest forces reported a rise in the number of dogs seized under the Dangerous Dogs Act, including banned breeds and those which attacked people and other pets. Animal charities have called for 'drastic changes' to dangerous dog laws ahead of changes set to be enforced on Tuesday, which will make it possible for owners to be prosecuted for dog attacks on private property. Friends arrive to place floral tributes near the scene where 14-year-old Jade Anderson who was savaged to death by four dogs - believed to be two bull mastiffs and two Staffordshire bull terriers . It follows the death of 14-year-old Jade Anderson who was savaged by four dogs - believed to be two bull mastiffs and two Staffordshire bull terriers - as she was visiting the home of a friend near Wigan, Greater Manchester, in March last year. Freedom of Information (FOI) responses obtained by the Press Association from police forces in England, Wales and Scotland found a number of forces recorded a rise in how many dangerous dogs they seized. The country’s second largest force, West Midlands Police, revealed that the number of dogs seized under the Dangerous Dogs Act had risen by 50% compared with 2011. The force seized 412 dogs in 2013, up from 360 in 2012 and 275 in 2011. A total of 181 dangerous dogs were destroyed last year, compared with 159 in 2012 and 138 in 2011, West Midlands Police said. Elsewhere, Lancashire, Avon and Somerset, Surrey, South Wales, North Wales, Warwickshire, Cleveland and Gwent Police all reported a rise in the number of dangerous dogs seized last year. Japanese Tosa is one of the animals banned under the Dangerous Dogs Act along with Fila Brasileiro and Dogo Argentino . However Scotland Yard revealed a fall in the number of dangerous dogs seized last year. Britain’s biggest force said 585 dogs were seized under the Dangerous Dogs Act in 2013 and 95 were destroyed. This compared with 777 dangerous dogs seized and 103 destroyed in 2012, while in 2011, 499 dogs were seized and 110 were destroyed. Greater Manchester Police said it seized 198 dogs under the Dangerous Dogs Act in 2013, compared with 203 in 2012 and 190 in 2011. Sixty dangerous dogs were destroyed in 2013, compared with 66 in 2011 and 85 in 2011, GMP said. Breeds banned under the Dangerous Dogs Act include any pitbull types, Japanese Tosa, Fila Brasileiro and Dogo Argentino. Dogs Trust charity said it had been arguing for 'drastic changes' in dangerous dog laws and claimed other legislation did not go far enough to tackle irresponsible dog owners. A spokeswoman for the charity said: 'We do not consider breed specific legislation to be effective and would like to see it repealed. 'We have become increasingly aware of the issues caused by ‘problem’ dogs or, more accurately, their problem owners. 'We believe that, in many cases, dangerous dogs are a social issue, rather than exclusively a "dog" problem. 'Crucially, non-legislative interventions to influence irresponsible owners and better educate the public are needed. 'Dogs Trust is encouraged by the Government’s commitment to improving dog control legislation. However, the charity does not believe that the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act goes far enough in tackling the various problems surrounding irresponsible ownership in the UK. 'There is a clear need for a fundamental overhaul of dog legislation.' An RSPCA spokesman said: 'The RSPCA is opposed to breed specific legislation. As an animal welfare charity we believe the law needs to focus on the actions of the owners at the root of the problem, rather than the types of dog. 'To focus on a specific breed or type of dog is to miss the problem itself. You can only legislate for the actions or inactions of humans (the owners) and not the dog.

By . Mike Dawes . Rafael Nadal sensed a changing of the guard despite giving Dominic Thiem a clay-court lesson in their second-round clash at the French Open. Twenty-year-old Austrian Thiem is one of the brightest talents in the men's game but he will know just how far he still has to go after a 6-2, 6-2, 6-3 loss on Court Philippe Chatrier. Despite the ease of his victory, Nadal was hugely impressed by Thiem and said: 'I think that our generation is now on the way out. All smiles: Rafael Nadal celebrates a place in the third round of the French Open . Too good: The eight-time champion brushed aside his Austrian opponent in straight sets in Paris . '(Andy) Murray, (Novak) Djokovic, (David) Ferrer, and (Tomas) Berdych and . others, (Jo-Wilfried) Tsonga, as well, we have been here for a long . while.

'I . think that this player has a huge potential and could be one of the . ones who's going to replace us. His tennis style is really good. What he . could work on is his footwork and how he moves on the court. That's . all.' Thiem really set tongues wagging earlier this month when he beat Australian Open champion Stan Wawrinka in Madrid.

Nadal's . only defeat at Roland Garros since he won the title on his debut in . 2005 came against Robin Soderling in 2009 and he is bidding to become . the first man to lift the Coupe des Mousquetaires five times in a row.

By . Emma Glanfield for MailOnline . A 'hyper-sexualised' security guard who groped women as he carried out searches at an airport has been jailed after telling one he 'knew she wanted it'. Married Mark Benson, 51, tried to kiss and grope his victims as he carried out searches at Leeds Bradford Airport and even put his hands inside their clothing. Leeds Crown Court heard he also made unwanted sexual advances to female members of staff in locker rooms or other staff areas while they were alone. Security guard Mark Benson, 51, tried to kiss and grope his victims as he searched them at Leeds Bradford Airport (above) and even put his hands inside their clothing. He admitted seven offences of sexual assault . Benson, from Leeds, West Yorkshire, was jailed for 70 weeks yesterday after pleading guilty to seven offences of sexual assault. Jon Gregg, prosecuting, said Benson tricked two of his victims into giving him their mobile phone numbers before sending them sexually explicit messages. He then told one of his victims he 'knew she wanted it' and said he knew of somewhere they could go where there were no CCTV cameras. The woman told Benson he was old enough to be her father and was married but he still persisted, the court heard. Mr Gregg said: 'Undaunted by that, he unzipped her coat and tried to undo her blouse buttons. 'All the while she was trying to pull his arm away and mentioning his wife. He said she would never find out.' The court was told one of Benson's victims had to undergo counselling as a result of her ordeal. After being arrested, he initially denied the offences and claimed the allegations against him were made up. Leeds Crown Court heard how Benson also made unwanted sexual advances to female members of staff in while they were alone. He was jailed for 70 weeks and ordered to sign the sex offenders' register for two years . Tony Kellbrick, defending, said: 'For reasons he can't explain he has become hyper-sexualised and he is not willing or able to admit it. 'What I am seeking to do on this defendant's behalf is suggest that, for some obscure reason that he cannot fully understand or accept is that he suddenly thinks he is God's gift to the female half of the race and here he is seeking emotional and sexual attention from them. 'He has lost his job, he has lost his wife and he has lost his home. He is on job seekers allowance. In some ways he is the author of his own downfall.' Judge Penelope Belcher said the offences could only be met with an immediate custody as they were too serious to be dealt with by a community-punishment. Benson was also ordered to sign the sex offenders' register for two years. | Mark Benson, 51, tried to kiss and grope victims during searches at airport .

A New York City teenager who admitted being high on marijuana and speeding when he slammed into a tree, splitting his new car in two on a suburban New York highway, was convicted Friday of four counts of vehicular manslaughter in the deaths of his friends. A Nassau County jury returned a partial verdict against Joseph Beer, deadlocking on the top count of aggravated vehicular homicide — a ruling that Beer's attorney interpreted as jurors' failure to agree that marijuana contributed to his client's inability to maneuver on a winding stretch of highway. 'We never denied that there was some responsibility, but the point is, we always maintained, always maintained, that Joseph Beer was not impaired and the impairment by marijuana did not cause this accident,' said attorney Todd Greenberg. Jurors declined to speak with reporters as they left the courthouse. Guilty: Joseph Beer, 19 (main), who was 17 and on a learners permit when he crashed his Subaru in Long Island, killing his four friends, has been convicted of four counts of vehicular manslaughter. He was under the influence of marijuana at the time . Horror crash: This is what Beer's car looked like after Beer lost control of the vehicle and hit a tree in Long Island . Tragedy: (Clockwise from top) Darian Ramnarine, Christopher Khan, Peter Kanhai and Neal Rajaba were all 18-years-old when they were killed in a horrific early-morning crash in Long Island in October 2012 . Beer was 17 when, prosecutors say, he drove in excess of 100 mph on the Southern State Parkway on Long Island, smashing into a tree in October 2012. The crash happened on a stretch of highway dubbed Dead Man's Curve because of a treacherous hill that leads to a sharp curve in the highway. The spectacular crash cut the high-performance Subaru in half. Beer was the lone survivor. The four 18-year-old passengers - Darian Ramnarine, Christopher Khan, Neal Rajaba and Peter Kanhai - were killed. Besides the conviction on manslaughter, Beer, now a 19-year-old Queens college student, was convicted of reckless driving and reckless endangerment. He faces five to 15 years in prison on the vehicular manslaughter conviction. He could have faced up to 25 years had he been convicted of vehicular homicide. Nassau County Judge David Sullivan declared a mistrial on the vehicular homicide charge as well as manslaughter, driving while ability impaired by drugs, and driving without a license. District Attorney Kathleen Rice said no decision has been made on whether to retry Beer on those charges but that a decision would be made "in a short period of time." Rice, who is running for Congress, insisted that 'common sense' indicated the teenager was impaired. 'I would make what I think is a reasonable statement by saying anyone who smoked marijuana, the natural intent of that action is to impair oneself,' Rice said at an impromptu news conference following the verdict. 'To what extent that impairs your ability to operate a car, I think common sense dictates that it does impair your ability to operate a motor vehicle at normal speeds, much less when you're driving 110 mph at night in a very fast car.' Greenberg said he would ask the court to deem Beer a youthful offender because the crash happened when he was 17. If granted, Beer would face only four years in prison. Rice said her office would oppose that request. | Joseph Beer was 17 when he smashed into a tree on the Southern State Parkway on Long Island about 3am in October 2012 .

By . Rachel Quigley . UPDATED: . 17:57 EST, 8 February 2012 . As the Tourette's-like illness continues to plague Le Roy school and baffle health experts, questions are now arising around the cleanup of a 40-year-old . chemical spill that contaminated some of the local water supply. Around 30,000 gallons of trichloroethylene (TCE), an industrial solvent that's hazardous in high . doses and can affect the nervous system, were dumped into the . ground during a train crash in 1970 on the outskirts of Le Roy. The EPA declared the area a Superfund site in 1999 after the TCE soaked into the ground and spread into a plume under part of Le Roy. Scroll down for video . Archive pictures: It has been suggested that it was chemicals leaked from a 1940 train crash that is causing the Tourette's like disease . Superfund site: The site of the 1970 train crash has a danger sign warning the public not to enter . Hazardous waste: The EPA declared the area a Superfund site in 1999 after the TCE soaked into the ground and spread into a plume under part of Le Roy . The site is now in a state of disrepair and neglect, according to PIX 11 News, with more than 200 drums of hazardous waste rusting outdoors, some of which had holes in them allowing the contents to leak out. The . EPA admitted to the station they didn't know what was in all of the barrels and said about one hundred of them have been there since the 1990s. A spokesman said: 'The barrels contain dirt and . rock from when wells were dug to monitor ground water at the site. Most of these drums have been tested . and contain material that is not considered hazardous and we are . gathering more information about the balance. 'EPA is taking steps to get these drums . removed from the site as soon as possible.' A contractor confirmed to the station that the rock and dirt in the drums did contain TCE. Danger: Hundreds of barrels containing potentially hazardous material are still at the site, most of which are rusty and leaking their contents . Leak: Around 30,000 gallons of trichloroethylene (TCE) was dumped into the ground during a train crash in 1970 on the outskirts of Le Roy . Cause?: The site was declared a Superfund site and the EPA admitted they do not know what is in the barrels still present in the area . 'To be safe, it's put in drums and . carted away and there's a plant that burns it,' he said. 'But it's like everything else. They forget about it until the . cameras show up and it's like, "Oh, we better get rid of the damn . things".' Doctors and teachers at the school deny that the disorder affecting 19 girls and one adult have anything to do with the spill. Le Roy historian Irene Walters said she remembers the spill and said the chemicals contaminated all the wells in the area and several of her friends died from cancer. Doctors who have treated or tested . the girls in Le Roy believe they are suffering from conversion . disorder, or the twitching symptoms are possibly related to an . infection. Lori Brownell, 16, posted a video on YouTube showing the Tourettes-like . symptoms she has suffered since August. She is one of 15 at LeRoy High . School in New York State who have developed the mystery condition . More recently, Facebook and YouTube were being blamed for the mystery illness. Doctors said that symptoms are being . ‘reinforced and magnified’ because victims of the bizarre condition are . uploading videos of themselves onto social networking sites to appeal . for help. They argue that when other people in . the town of LeRoy view the videos, they are unconsciously mimicking what . they see and spreading it around. The true cause of the illness is still . a mystery and there no formal suggestion that Facebook or any of the . other social networking websites are to blame. But David Lichter, professor of . neurology at the University of Buffalo, who has treated several of the . patients, said he might now understand how it has affected so many . people. He told MSNBC: ‘It's remarkable to see . how one individual posts something, and then the next person who posts . something not only are the movements bizarre and not consistent with . known movement disorders, but it's the same kind of movements. ‘This mimicry goes on with Facebook or YouTube exposure. This is the modern way that symptomology could be spread.’ In total 19 patients have come forward . with Tourette’s like symptoms since last Fall, which include . uncontrollable facial and body twitching. Trying to understand: Thera Sanchez, 17, has had . the mysterious symptoms for months and all of the treatments he has . received have not helped to clarify any options for her or her family . They include 14 girls aged between 13 . and 18 and this week the first adult victim, 36-year-old nurse . practitioner Marge Fitzsimmons. Among those who have taken an interest in the case is environmental campaigner Erin Brockovich. She has suggested that a chemical . spill from a train derailment in the 1970s near the site of the girls’ school may be the cause. Researchers have also come up with a . string of theories and believe teenagers may have been struck down by . paediatric acute-onset neuropsychiatric syndrome, or PANS, which is a . kind of OCD linked to strep throat. Other believe that Morgellons could be to blame, which is a disease that causes patients to sprout painful sores. Mystery: Fifteen Le Roy High School students reported a mysterious outbreak of spasms, tics and seizures which may be caused by a brain infection . Some doctors have also suggested it . could be a mass psychogenic illness which can be triggered by stress and . is spread from unconscious mimicry of one another. Dr. Laszlo Mechtler, chief of . neurology at the Dent Neurologic Institute in Buffalo, said: ‘When one . has a symptom, it can be reinforced and magnified with other individuals . with similar symptoms. ‘That's what's going on with these . girls. They are in a segregated small rural town in New York state. They . are a cohesive group. And this wildfire of symptoms takes control.’ During an angry meeting on Saturday . parents berated LeRoy schools officials and asked why the soil around . natural gas well which had been dug on school ground had not been tested . for contamination. Demanding explanations: Parents gathered for a meeting with school administrators to determine what was being done to ensure the safety of students near the 1970 chemical spill . Patrick Frauley (left) and Beth Miller (right, whose daughter is one of the ill teens, spoke at the meeting . 'This could take years! What are you doing to protect my kid? What are you doing to protect these peoples kids?' said parent Patrick Frauley. Many of the parents of the sick teens attended the meeting, but none of the teens themselves were present. 'I'm not looking for a lawsuit of any kind, I just want my daughter to get better,' said Beth Miller. Adding to the concern was that the . wells were drilled using the controversial hydraulic fracturing method, . also known as ‘fracking’. Dr Greg Young of the New York State . Department of Health had earlier explained that tests had ruled out . environmental factors as the cause of the disease. He also claimed that genetics, antihistamines or head trauma could be to blame. WATCH VIDEO HERE .

By . Ap . and Daily Mail Reporter . PUBLISHED: . 21:27 EST, 7 January 2014 . | . UPDATED: . 07:57 EST, 8 January 2014 . A Florida inmate was executed Tuesday for fatally stabbing a prison guard with a sharpened spoon while on death row for abducting and killing a Miami couple. Askari Abdullah Muhammad, previously known as Thomas Knight, was pronounced dead at 6:45 p.m. Tuesday after a lethal injection at Florida State Prison, the governor's office said. The execution took place in the same prison where Muhammad killed corrections officer Richard Burke in 1980. 'This is where my dad took his last breath,' said the slain guard's daughter, 47-year-old Carolyn Burke Thompson. She was among several family members who witnessed the execution and could be seen crying in the front row as it was carried out. Executed: Askari Abdullah Muhammad was put to death Tuesday for murdering a Florida couple and a prison guard . 'The system finally has worked. I am at peace knowing I don't have to wait any longer. I miss my dad a lot,' she said. Before his execution, Muhammad ate a meal of sweet potato pie, coconut cake, banana nut bread, vanilla ice cream, strawberry-and-butter pecan ice cream and Fritos corn chips — all washed down by a quarter of a bottle of Sprite, according to the website Death Penalty News. Muhammad, 62, was initially condemned to die for the 1974 abduction and killings of Sydney and Lillian Gans of Miami. Tuesday's execution was specifically for Burke's killing. Muhammad was visited by his four sisters Monday and earlier Tuesday by a friend. He declined to make any statement before the sentence was carried out. A small group opposed to the death penalty protested outside the prison. His execution was delayed for so long by numerous appeals and rulings, including a 1987 federal appeals court tossing out his original death sentence because he hadn't been allowed to put character and background witnesses on the stand during the penalty phase. The U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear his final appeals, but Justice Stephen Breyer said in a dissent he would have granted a stay to hear Muhammad's claims that it may be unconstitutional to execute an inmate after such a long time on death row. Justice: In October 1980, Muhammad thrust a sharpened spoon into the chest of corrections officer Richard Burke, 48 (pictured), because the prison would not let him see his mother . Court documents show that Muhammad fatally stabbed Burke as he was being escorted to the prison shower. The inmate had become upset, the documents say, because he was told he couldn't see a visitor unless he shaved his full beard. The documents added he had been overheard by guards to remark that 'it looks like I'll have to start sticking people.' In the earlier slayings, Muhammad had worked for Gans at a paper bag company before abducting him in the business parking lot with a rifle. He ordered Gans to drive home, pick up his wife and then head to a bank to withdraw $50,000. Inside the bank, Gans asked a manager to alert authorities. Both the FBI and police were able to follow the car for a while, including use of aircraft, but lost track of it for a short time in a rural area of Miami-Dade County. Trial testimony showed that's when Muhammad shot the couple and tried to hide by burying himself, the rifle and the money in mud and weeds. Muhammad was found soon after and arrested. While awaiting trial, he and 10 other inmates escaped from jail, leading to a nationwide manhunt including a top 10 fugitives listing by the FBI. Authorities say Muhammad was involved after his escape in the fatal October 1974 shooting of a liquor store clerk during an armed robbery in Cordele, Ga., that wounded a second clerk. He was never tried in that case. The FBI finally arrested Muhammad on New Year's Eve in 1974 in Florida. Muhammad converted to Islam in prison, changing his name from Knight. During his 1996 resentencing, he cursed at the judge and lawyers and yelled 'Allahu Akbar!' - 'God is great' in Arabic. | Askari Abdullah Muhammad murdered a Florida couple and a prison guard .

LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- The memorial service for singer Michael Jackson cost the city of Los Angeles $1.4 million, the mayor's office said Wednesday. A donation page on the City of Los Angeles' Web site has crashed several times since its launch yesterday. Costs included putting extra police on the streets, trash pickup, sanitation, traffic control and more for the Tuesday event, spokeswoman Sarah Hamilton said. Three thousand police officers -- almost one-third of the Los Angeles police force -- were on hand to ensure the Jackson events proceeded smoothly, Los Angeles Assistant Police Chief Jim McDonnell, said Tuesday. The city, which is $530 million in debt, set up a Web page asking Jackson fans to donate money to help with the expenses. On Tuesday morning, hundreds of donors contributed more than $17,000 through the Web site. But then, the high volume of traffic caused it to crash frequently and for long periods of time, the mayor's office said. The city, therefore, was unable to collect contributions for several hours on Tuesday. The site also crashed for 12 hours, beginning at 8 p.m. Tuesday -- and again, periodically throughout Wednesday morning, the office said. Los Angeles City Attorney Carmen Trutanich does not want taxpayers to pay a penny for the service, his spokesman said Wednesday. "The city attorney does not want something like this happening again, the city paying [the initial costs] for a private event," spokesman John Franklin said. "That's especially in a cash-strapped city, where people have been furloughed or even lost jobs." During the Los Angeles Lakers championship parade this year, nearly 2,000 police were called in, at a cost of $2 million. The Lakers and private donors reimbursed the city for most of the expenses. Michael Roth, spokesman for AEG, which owns Staples Center and put on the event, could not be reached for comment. | Costs included extra police, sanitation, traffic control for Tuesday's memorial service .

(CNN) -- Former first lady Barbara Bush underwent heart surgery Wednesday at Methodist Hospital in Houston, Texas, a hospital spokeswoman told CNN. Former first lady Barbara Bush had heart surgery Wednesday in Houston, Texas. Jean Becker, chief of staff for former President George H.W. Bush, said that Barbara Bush, 83, was "fine" following the surgery. "In fact, she is awake," Becker said. "We, of course, naively wanted to keep it quiet -- Mrs. Bush did," Becker said Wednesday night. "She thought there was too much fuss the last time." Wednesday's surgery was not related to surgery she had in November for a perforated ulcer. Her husband is with her in the hospital, where she is expected to remain for seven to 10 days. "I am very impressed with and grateful to the wonderful team of doctors and nurses at The Methodist Hospital who have helped Barbara," the former president said. "We have every confidence she is in the best hands." The open-heart surgery was taken as a precautionary step after she experienced shortness of breath last week and doctors found hardening on one part of her aorta, according to a statement released by the hospital. Dr. Gerald Lawrie performed the 2 1/2 hour surgery, replacing her aortic valve with a biologic valve, the hospital said. "This is a very common aging change," Lawrie told CNN's "Larry King Live." "It's estimated as many as 10 percent of people over 70 need this type of surgery. It's basically a wear-and-tear that leads to calcium deposits." Lawrie said the former first lady "really should" recovery quickly with the new aortic valve taken from a pig. "That's what we use most commonly," he said, adding that Bush "woke up from the surgery joking." | Barbara Bush undergoes heart surgery in Houston, Texas, hospital .

By . Sean Poulter . PUBLISHED: . 18:28 EST, 17 November 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 18:28 EST, 17 November 2013 . Mark up: An average large frozen turkey will be £3 more expensive this year at £20 . The Christmas turkey will be some 17 per cent more expensive this year as stores attempt to cash in on the festive season. A typical large frozen turkey, enough to feed more than ten people and leave some over for sandwiches, will be around £3 more expensive at £20. However, people buying fresh from a butcher will probably be paying at least £60 – and potentially much more - for a bird of that size. At the same time other key essentials for the feast, such as potatoes, carrots, peas and, of course, sprouts, are also more expensive. The latest official figures from Smithfield market suggest the price of turkey is up by some eight per cent in the past year. At the same time, the British Turkey Federation claims a smaller increase of six per cent. However, a snapshot survey conducted this weekend found a the price of a large frozen turkey in supermarkets was up by some 17 per cent in a year. Research by The Grocer magazine last year put the price of a frozen turkey weighing 5-6kg at £17, however this year it is around £20, . Tesco is currently charging £20 and Sainsbury’s £22 for a bird weighing 5.3-6.9kg, while Asda is charging £20 for a 5.8kg bird. The other Christmas dinner essential, Brussel sprouts, are up by some 19per cent this year - a rise from £2.10 a kilo to some £2.50. At the same time a 2.5kg pack of white roasting potatoes is up by some 15per cent to £2. The increases for carrots and peas are smaller. Cashing in: Stores have also upped the prices of brussels sprouts ahead of families doing their Christmas shop . Savings: But shoppers will be able to find cut-price deals on mince pies and satsumas in certain supermarkets . Smoked salmon and stilton are now as much a part of Christmas as the turkey. The survey found that Blue Stilton is up by around 5 per cent to £2.32 for just 100g, while smoked salmon is up by some 28 per cent to £4 for a 100g pack. However, there is some positive news from the survey, which found some significant price reductions this year, particularly on drink. A bottle of Hardys Stamp Shiraz is down from £5.92 to £5; four cans of Stella are down from £4.06 to £3.50, Harveys Bristol Cream from £8.30 to £8 and Baileys from £12.17 to £12. There are also savings on coffee, Satsumas, a tin of Cadbury’s Roses and a pack of mince pies. Paul Kelly, chairman of the British Turkey Federation, said: ‘Massive fluctuations in the price of feed affects the price of a turkey but people will still 'trade up' at Christmas by getting the best they can afford. This year you'll be paying around £53 for a 4kg turkey.’ Iceland claims to offer the cheapest Christmas dinner at a total of £30.50 for a meal for eight. This includes a self-basting Golden Norfolk Turkey, weight - 4.05-5.4kg – at £14. Also on its frozen food menu is a 907g pack of oven ready roast potatoes, and a 900g pack of button sprouts, which come in at £1 each. Its pack of six deep filled mince pies are also £1.

Editor's note: Erica Williams is deputy director of Campus Progress, a project of the Center for American Progress, a Washington-based organization that describes itself as dedicated to progressive causes. She works to engage the millennial generation and communities such as people of color, women and people of faith in the political process. She can be found at ericawilliamsonline.com and on Twitter at @ericawilliamsdc. Erica Williams says the idea that young people don't care about the health care issue is wrong. (CNN) -- As Congress returns to Capitol Hill, back from a recess of contentious town halls on health care reform, one new voice has the potential to break through the seemingly endless deadlock: the voice of young Americans. Just Thursday, there were more than 880,000 Facebook status updates posted with the meme of a demand for health care reform, generated organically and spread virally from young people and other Facebook users across the country. Some are regarding this as the first symbolic demonstration of young people's engagement in the debate despite the common, and categorically false, notion that young people "don't care about health care reform." Young adults between the ages of 19 and 29 represent nearly a third of the entire uninsured population, and two-thirds of those uninsured young people reported going without necessary medical care because of costs in 2007, according to research for the Commonwealth Fund. More than half of all young adults have low incomes (below 200 percent of the federal poverty level, $21,660 for a single person in 2009), and low-income young adults are more than 2.5 times as likely to be uninsured as higher-income young adults, according to the Urban Institute. And contrary to popular belief that young people see themselves as invincible college students who choose to remain uninsured, 56 percent of uninsured young adults between the ages of 19 and 29 are full-time workers who are half as likely to be covered by their employer as older workers. Millennials regarded health care reform as one of their top concerns during the 2008 election campaign, according to the Rock the Vote Poll of 18- to 29-year-olds, conducted in February 2008 by Lake Research Partners. Whether it is the 25-year-old freelancer with a pre-existing condition who can't purchase insurance in the individual market, the 20-year-old line cook who doesn't receive insurance through her job or the 28-year-old bank employee who is insured but is worried about the rising costs of premiums, young Americans experience the deficiencies of our health care system on a daily basis. Nevertheless, despite a recent CNN/Opinion Research Corp. survey showing that 60 percent of Americans aged 18 to 34 support Obama's reform plan, the voice of young Americans has been strikingly absent from the public, televised national debate. And that silence is a dangerous state of affairs for the larger dialogue around reform. Young Americans have the most at stake and the longest to live with the result, and they are often the primary voice of a moral imperative (the idea that health care reform is not only economically necessary but the just and fair thing to do). Without their voices, the health care reform debate will continue to be stalled and hemmed in by older Americans who are in a better economic position than young people and who are afraid to change the status quo, despite all signs that it is rapidly failing. Young people were such a vital force during the election, not simply because of their own voting turnout but because of their ability to reach out to their elders and persuade them. And what could be more needed now? But if health care reform matters so much to young people and their voice is so crucial in the debate, why the silence? Why does it appear as if young people aren't interested in the debate that will inform so much of their future? Well, if we are gauging America's overall interest in the debate by the aforementioned displays of partisan yelling, screaming and death panel-ing at some town halls, no wonder we think young people don't care. Those sideshows were a clear turnoff to a population that voted overwhelming for less partisanship and "drama" in its politics. Or perhaps it is because this administration did little in the early stages of the debate to engage and activate a "fired-up and ready to go" base of young people that saw health care reform as a top concern at the polls. Obama rarely highlights the fact that reform would provide protections against price differentials that often result in discrimination based on age and gender. Or what about the fact that the president's reform proposal would mean that a young person can be covered up until the age of 26 by a parent's plan, rather than the current limit of 19 for those who don't attend college? This is what young people should have been told. But it isn't too late. As 2008 showed, young people, like all other constituencies, speak when spoken to. As the debate slogs into what is sure to be the most consequential stage of the battle, President Obama has a prime opportunity to speak directly to those who should have been the base of this issue all along. It is beyond time for the White House, and other organizers working to support reform, to hit college campuses and other community centers where young people can be found, both on- and offline, and empower them to make their voices heard. In the meantime, young people are doing it themselves. Students across the country are beginning to plan their own town hall events and forums, designing health care T-shirts and sending in photo petitions to their elected officials. They are demanding real reform and trying to get the health care debate back on track. In order to succeed, the fight for bold health care reform needs the enthusiasm, support and perspective of young people. And time is running out.

By . Daily Mail Reporter . PUBLISHED: . 21:17 EST, 12 June 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 01:14 EST, 13 June 2013 . A company called 4Sphere is putting a new - pardon the pun - spin on a 5,500-year-old classic: the wheel. Wheels, as most everyone knows, are round. But not 4Sphere's Shark Wheel - rather, a Shark Wheel, designed for skateboards, is formed around a cubed center, which its inventor claims allows it to ride faster and smoother than your traditional round skateboard wheel. In other words, the company has literally reinvented the wheel. SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO . Behold! The wheel - reinvented . Shark Wheels . 'When used on hard surfaces, the Shark Wheel produces a low friction profile similar to a high performance, low rolling resistance tire,' the company says on its Kickstarter page. 'This allows for less energy to be used as the contact patch is very small. Conversely, a wheel that would normally work well as a low resistance wheel would perform poorly in something like soft sand.' Shark Wheels are made up of three, helical-shaped strips that, when rolling, form a sine wave pattern when they make contact with the ground. This pattern allows the wheel to roll faster than a traditional round wheel, the company claims, and provides better handling on rough, wet terrain. The man who reinvented the wheel: David Patrick says he's been an avid skateboarder all his life . 'It kept on going': Patrick says he dropped this 'rectangle' accidentally and noticed that it rolled . 'When encountering soft surfaces, the patented design of the Shark Wheel . produces a much wider, high friction profile which creates a wide . surface area and unsurpassed grip, the company says. 'This ability to travel on soft . surfaces is very similar to the way a sidewinder snake moves through the . sand.' Shark Wheel inventor David Patrick says he got the idea for the wheel when he used six different shapes to form a perfect cube. He dropped the cube accidentally and it rolled. 'Not only did it roll,' he says in a promotional video for the Shark Wheel, 'it kept on going. The helix shape of it was perfectly balanced so no matter what the terrain, it kept on going.' Shark Wheels . Lame: round wheels are sooo 3000 B.C. Sidewinder: Patrick says the Shark Wheel works similar to how a 'sidewinder snake moves through the sand' The company recently started a campaign on Kickstarter - an online fundraising website where the general public can contribute money to creative ideas - that already has garnered more than $30,000 in 10 days. The company's initial fundraising goal was $10,000. Patrick says the company already has plans for the wheel designed and tested. He says it will use the money from Kickstarter to start mass-producing the square-shaped wheels soon. | 'Shark Wheels' are made of three, helical-shaped strips that, when rolling, form a sine wave pattern when they make contact with the ground .

(CNN) -- Many people fail to have great careers because they make excuses to avoid taking action. They dismiss the importance of passion to great careers by claiming that passionate people are abnormal. By contrast, in most people's eyes, those who are normal only need to work hard and they will have at least a good career. But good jobs are disappearing, as bad and great jobs squeeze out the middle range. Hard work alone buys little advantage. The most common excuse is to use the importance of family and personal relationships as the reason to avoid the demands of a great career. But how can you be a great spouse, parent or friend by denying your true identity? Without passion, no one can fully express their talent or define who they are. TED.com: Keep your goals to yourself . Since pursuing your passion is a necessary -- but not sufficient -- condition for a great career, it becomes logically essential to find your passion as a starting point. Nevertheless, many people struggle to find their passions. What mistakes are they making? Often they assume that finding one's passion is a matter of luck. They see that some people found their passions as children. Often others seem to just trip over their passion as they move into adulthood. The process seems random and difficult to view as a methodical process of search. Yes, some are lucky. They have the luck of being born into a family in which a family member or friend shows them a domain that immediately engages them, or one that slowly sneaks up on them. In the absence of the lucky circumstance of their family, the search would have been longer and more challenging. TED.com: A kinder, gentler philosophy of success . But notice that some who pursue a childhood or family "interest" do so only as a convenient default choice. It was there and so they chose it to avoid further thought or uncertainty. It is hardly an interest, although they may speak of it very positively -- the better to tell themselves or others that they made a "wise" choice. The majority of us do not have the advantage of circumstance, and therefore have no choice but to search for our passion. Many people fail to find their passion because they either fail to search methodically or search persistently. Some will simply not commit the time and energy to a search that can often be frustrating. In fact, they want their "destiny" to find them; they do not want to find it themselves. You cannot find your passion idly staring into space, hoping for it to appear as a revelation, from one book, article, blog posting or casual conversation. TED.com: 4 lessons from robots about being human . Those who search and find their passion place themselves in intensely stimulating environments, and stay there until the job is done. It can be intellectually exhausting. There are many such environments. Some read voraciously; others seek out many people in many situations and engage them in intense conversation. Some do both. Others visit every major museum and gallery in North America. They find their passion by immersing themselves in human experience. But you cannot just read, talk or experience. You must also have your mind in high gear. You must be fully engaged, reading and thinking to a purpose. You must be constantly saying to yourself about whatever book, fact, argument, person or experience is at hand: Why? What if? Why don't they? Yes, it is intense. And yes, too few are practiced in this art, no matter their level of education. But you will never find your passion in the modern way: by surfing or browsing. Recognize the superficiality implied by those words and by our impatient, thoughtless world. You will have to stand against the popular culture to find your passion. Too many do not have the independence of mind or force of commitment to do so. TED.com: Inventing is the easy part . Take the time you need. Recognize your mind's natural tendency to resolve its painful uncertainty by rushing to judgment, even to the judgment that it is time to give up. How will you recognize your passion when you encounter it? Usually, it is quite easy. One moment you are reading in hopes of finding a topic of great interest; then you find that you are reading and do not want to stop. Or you find yourself in a regular conversation, and you start talking with excitement about an idea. Or you find yourself in an activity and you lose track of time itself. The rule of passion is simple: the mind cannot stop thinking about that which it loves. Your passion is what you would do even if you won the lottery. Even with a passion identified, there is a common pitfall. Some people find their passion, and then relying on no more than popular opinion, they dismiss the passion as one that "cannot be turned into a livelihood." And they move on to try to find a second, more practical love. That is not necessarily a bad choice since one could certainly have more than one love. But before you look for a second love, you should creatively examine whether your first found love could support a career. Research the experiences of those who have found ways to pursue such livelihoods. Never take conventional wisdom as anything other than folklore, to be tested against your logic and experiences. Remember that passion is necessary for a great career, but it is not sufficient. There's no magic here. Success also demands persistence, focus, discipline, independence of mind, resourcefulness, experimentation and high creativity. The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Larry Smith. | Larry Smith: Most people fail to have great careers because they make excuses .
He says people shun trying for greatness, saying it would harm their personal, family life .
He says great careers require people to find their passions and act on them .

By . Daniel Miller . Last updated at 1:38 AM on 27th October 2011 . Women will have the right to check if a current or potential boyfriend has a history of violence under a new scheme being considered in Parliament. The plans have been dubbed ‘Clare’s Law’, after the horrific killing of 36-year-old mother Clare Wood by George Appleton a man she met on Facebook who had a long record of violent behaviour against women. Clare's Law is modelled on Sarah’s Law’ - . the successful campaign to give parents the right to check on . paedophiles in their area after the murder of schoolgirl Sarah Payne. Tragedy: Clare Wood, 36, was brutally murdered in 2009 by George Appleton, a man she had met on Facebook who had a history of violence against women . The Mail on Sunday reported in July that . former Labour Cabinet Minister Hazel Blears was leading a campaign to . introduce changes to current legislation. Yesterday Home Secretary Teresa May launched a 12-week consultation period to discuss how such a scheme would work and to decide whether it should go ahead. She said: 'I have been clear that ending violence against women and girls is a personal priority for me and this government. 'Domestic violence is a particularly dreadful form of abuse and I want us to constantly look at new ways of protecting victims and preventing tragic incidents from happening.' Pledge: Home Secretary Theresa May said ending violence against women is a priority for the government . With more and more women meeting men, who they know little about, on the internet many believe such a law is necessary to protect their safety. However, critics say the well-intentioned plan could jeopardise civil liberties. Ms Wood was initially charmed by Appleton’s persona after meeting him online, but his violent side soon surfaced and he subjected her to a string of sexual assaults. After they split he strangled her and set on fire in Salford in February 2009. When he went on the run he was quickly dubbed the ‘Facebook Fugitive’. Six days after Ms Wood’s body was found, Appleton was discovered hanged in a derelict pub. Ms Wood had first called police in October 2008 after he damaged her front door, threatened her with an iron and threatened to kill her. The Independent Police Complaints Commission later ruled she had been badly let down by police. Friends and family were shocked to discover that the killer had a history of violence against women, including repeated harassment, threats and the kidnapping at knifepoint of one of his other ex-girlfriends. After the inquest into Ms Wood’s death, coroner Jennifer Leeming wrote to the Home Office to recommend a system of checks which has become the basis of Clare’s Law. There are currently two options being discussed. A 'right to know' scheme would give police the power to proactively disclose information about violent men to women or even alert the family members of vulnerable women. A second 'right to ask' scheme would give women the right to ask police is a man had a history of violent behaviour. Under the current law Police can disclose previous convictions or charges to the public if they believe there is a pressing need to do so to prevent future crime. Mrs May added: 'This scheme would be based on recognised and consistent processes that could enable new partners of previously violent suspects to know more about their partner's history of abuse. 'They could then make informed choices about how and whether they take that relationship forward.' Clare's Law is modelled on Sarah's Law - the successful campaign to . give parents the right to check on paedophiles in their area after the . murder of schoolgirl Sarah Payne. Home Secretary May added: 'This scheme would be based on recognised and consistent processes that could enable new partners of previously violent suspects to know more about their partner's history of abuse. 'They could then make informed choices about how and whether they take that relationship forward.' Ms Wood’s father, Michael Brown said he was 'absolutely delighted' with the announcement. He told the BBC: 'Anyone who's being threatened by their partner should be able to find out if he's done anything similar in the past. 'My daughter didn't know and I don't want any other family to go through what we've had to. 'It should make a big difference to those ladies who are in a vulnerable position - it'll mean they can make informed decisions about what to do next.' In a previous interview with the Mail on Sunday he said: 'My daughter wasn’t stupid. If she had known about that man’s past, she would have taken herself out of there in a heartbeat.’ However Tory MP Robert Buckland, a member of the Commons Justice Committee, warned any such scheme would need to be carefully controlled to avoid abuse. He said: ‘We’re all in favour of curbing violence against women but we have to be certain this will not lead to fishing expeditions by women demanding confidential information about potential boyfriends without proper justification. ‘You cannot have a carte blanche system where people can simply turn up at a police station, give the name of a boyfriend or potential boyfriend, and expect the police to open up all the files on him. 'There will have to be strict controls on any proposal of this nature.’ | Fears that growth of internet dating is putting thousands of women at risk .

By . Daily Mail Reporter . PUBLISHED: . 19:52 EST, 7 June 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 08:31 EST, 8 June 2013 . This is Ceyda Sungar, 'The Woman in Red' who became the symbol of Turkish protests after she was tear-gassed by police . This is the first picture of the Turkish academic since she became the unwitting icon of the country's mass protests after she was pictured being sprayed with tear gas. Dubbed 'The Woman in Red' because she was wearing an elegant red dress when she was gassed, Ceyda Sungar has said she is uncomfortable with her fame and has no desire to be a figurehead of the movement. 'There are a lot of people who were at the park and they were also tear-gassed,' she told Turkey's TV24. 'There is no difference between them and I.' Nevertheless, pictures have reverberated . around the world of Miss Sungar, an academic in city planning at Istanbul Technical University, turning away from massed riot police as one officer sprays . tear gas at her face. Endlessly . shared on social media and recreated as artwork on posters and . stickers, the image - dubbed 'The Woman in Red' - has become the . leitmotif for female protesters at recent violent anti-government riots . in Istanbul. But . the academic, who is part of the Taksim Solidarity Platform protesting . against the redevelopment of the park, has shied away from media . attention. She is believed to be uncomfortable with . her position as the focal point of the movement - although her image . alone has become a galvanising force for fellow protesters. In the early hours of this morning . thousands of protesters were digging in for a fresh weekend of . demonstrations Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan's demand for an immediate . end to the worst political unrest of his decade in power. Iconic: Ceyda Sungar turns her head as a policeman showers her in pepper spray at close range . This is what democracy looks like: This combination of photos shows how Miss Sungar first faces off with the massed ranks of riot police before one steps forward to spray the gas right into her face . 'There are a lot of people who were at the park and they were also tear-gassed': Miss Sungar forced is to retreat coughing and spluttering as the gas-wielding riot policeman goes on to spray others at the protest . In . central Istanbul's Taksim Square, where riot police backed by . helicopters and armoured vehicles clashed with protesters a week ago, . activists spent the night in a makeshift protest camp. They slept in tents and vandalised buses, or wrapped themselves in blankets under the shelter of plane trees. What began as a campaign against the . redevelopment of Gezi Park in a corner of Taksim Square spiralled into . an massive display of public rage over the perceived authoritarianism of . Mr Erdogan and his Islamist-rooted AK Party. Worst unrest in a decade of power: Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan has called on protesters to immediately clear the streets . Police firing tear gas and water cannon have clashed with groups of protesters night after night in Istanbul, Ankara and other cities across the country for much of the past week, leaving three dead and some 4,000 injured. Mr Erdogan yesterday demanded an immediate end to the protests, saying they were founded on a 'campaign of lies.' He has branded the demonstrators as looters and has said the protests are being manipulated by 'terrorist' groups. There are rumours that among the liberal protesters there are far-Right nationalists who seek a return to the kind of militant secularism that saw Turkish politics dominated in the 20th century by a string of military dictatorships. Mr Erdogan gave no indication of any immediate plans to remove the tent villages that have appeared in Taksim and a park in the capital, Ankara. But the gatherings mark a challenge to a leader whose authority is built on three successive election victories. 'Let them attack, they can't stop us,' shouted a member of the Turkish Communist Party, shouting through loudspeakers to a cheering crowd from on top of a white van in Taksim Square. 'The AK Party will go. This will be the end.' The protesters have built barricades of . paving stones and corrugated iron on access roads to Taksim to try to . protect themselves against a potential police assault. But their actions . have brought gridlock to part of central Istanbul and it is unclear how . long the authorities will tolerate their presence. The square is lined by luxury hotels that should be doing a roaring trade as the summer season starts in one of the world's most-visited cities. But a forced eviction could trigger a repeat of the clashes seen earlier in the week. During his decade in power, Mr Erdogan has enacted many democratic reforms, taming a military that toppled four governments in four decades, starting entry talks with the European Union, reining in rights abuses by police and forging peace talks with Kurdish rebels to end a three-decade-old war that has cost 40,000 lives. A gay rights activist holds a sign as he protests near Taksim Square in Istanbul last night: In the early hours of this morning thousands of protesters were digging in for a fresh weekend of demonstrations . Occupy: In central Istanbul's Taksim Square activists spent the night in a makeshift protest camp. They slept in tents and vandalised buses, or wrapped themselves in blankets under the shelter of plane trees . A advertising hoarding is covered in graffiti as people gather at Taksim square yesterday evening: Mr Erdogan yesterday demanded an immediate end to the protests, saying they were founded on a 'campaign of lies' Turkish women stand near political signs at Taksim Square: Protesters have built barricades of paving stones and corrugated iron across roads to Taksim to try to protect themselves against a potential police assault . A woman shouts slogans during a rally in Gezi Park yesterday: The protesters' actions have brought gridlock to part of central Istanbul and it is unclear how long the authorities will tolerate their presence . Passion: Another young woman shouts slogans. The square is lined by luxury hotels that should be doing a roaring trade as tourist season starts in one of the world's most-visited cities . Per-capita income has tripled in nominal terms and business has boomed under his rule. But in recent years, critics say his style, always forceful and emotional, has become authoritarian. Media have come under pressure, and the arrests of military and other figures over alleged coup plots as well as moves such as restrictions on alcohol sales have unsettled especially secular middle-class Turks who are sensitive to any encroachment of religion on their daily lives. The fierce crackdown, condemned by foreign powers, on what started as peaceful protests in Gezi Park were the final straw, has caused simmering frustrations with Erdogan's leadership to boil over. 'These protests are partly a result of his success in economic and social transformation. There's a new generation who doesn't want to be bullied by the prime minister and who is afraid their lifestyle is in danger,' said Joost Lagendijk, a former European parliamentarian and Istanbul-based academic. Very enterprising: A woman and her daughter sell Guy Fawkes to protesters at Taksim Square yesterday . All you need is love: Two protesters lie together on the grass of Gezi Park, which the government wants to clear . Battleground: A protester climbs aboard a burned-out truck damaged in fierce fighting with police at Taksim . Sources close to the AK Party that Mr Erdogan founded in 2001, and which only a year later crushed traditional secular parties in elections, suggest a sense of siege within the leadership, with influential if disparate forces keen to remove Erdogan. Citing a party source, the Radikal newspaper said an AK Party executive meeting on Saturday may discuss the possibility of calling early elections, although it could also change party rules to enable Mr Erdogan to seek a fourth term as prime minister rather than running for the presidency. Mr Erdogan has made clear he has no intention of stepping aside - pointing to the AK Party's 50 percent of the vote in the last election - and he has no clear rivals inside the party or outside, with the opposition fragmented on the streets and in parliament. | First image of academic Ceyda Sungar since she was sprayed .

A prolonged undersea search for the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 could cost nearly a quarter of a billion U.S. dollars if private companies are used, Australia's top transport official said Thursday. Martin Dolan emphasized that the $234 million price tag is a "ballpark rough estimate" of an extended search and salvage mission that includes an underwater vehicle. The Bluefin-21 is back at work Friday morning on a fifth trip into the southern Indian Ocean. Authorities said the vessel has scanned a total of 110 square kilometers (42.5 square miles) without making any "contacts of interest." Searchers seem to be preparing for the possibility that an underwater drone scan of the ocean may not yield debris from the plane immediately. Malaysia's acting transport minister, Hishammuddin Hussein, said that authorities are looking at deploying more unmanned underwater probes. Officials might consider searching along a large portion of sea highlighted by a partial digital "handshake" between the jetliner and an Inmarsat PLC satellite, Dolan said. That arc of sea is over 370 miles long and 30 miles wide. Underwater search . Officials didn't indicate whether Bluefin's fourth mission was a lengthy one. The Bluefin was forced to abort its mission twice this week; the first time after it exceeded its original depth limit and the second time over a technical issue. After the latter was resolved, officials dipped it into the ocean again. Phoenix International Holdings, which owns and operates the equipment under a contract for the U.S. Navy, called the third dive "very productive," saying that the underwater drone spent nearly 13 hours at the sea bottom. But after four dives, "there has been no debris or aircraft wreckage discovered," the company said. The underwater vessel takes two hours to get near the ocean floor and another two hours to return to the surface. It aims to map the ocean floor for 16 hours to retrieve data, which then take four hours to analyze. The vessel searches maximum depths of 4,500 meters (14,764 feet). The U.S. Navy has determined the seafloor in the search area reaches a maximum depth of 4,600 meters (15,092 feet). Bluefin operators said they can reprogram it to operate at 5,000 meters (16,404 feet), giving it more leeway. New setbacks . Officials believe a recent ping heard in the search area has the right frequency to belong to the flight data recorder's emergency beacon. The quality of the "ping" led authorities to focus the underwater search in the area. And as the underwater focus continues, officials faced other setbacks. A preliminary analysis of an oil sample collected in the ocean shows that it is not aircraft engine oil or hydraulic fluid, Australia's Joint Agency Coordination Centre said Thursday. Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 vanished on March 8 with 239 people aboard after taking off from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, bound for Beijing. With no debris found so far and no possible pings from the plane's "black boxes" detected in a week, officials shifted the focus of the search underwater. | Malaysian official raises the possibility of more underwater search vehicles .

By . Richard Kay . PUBLISHED: . 17:51 EST, 18 September 2012 . | . UPDATED: . 23:12 EST, 18 September 2012 . She has embarked on a campaign to save the High Streets of Britain. But ‘Queen of Shops’ Mary Portas has taken a break from her crusade to tend to a matter that is even closer to her heart. The retail guru is celebrating after her partner, Melanie Rickey, gave birth to their first child. Journalist Melanie, 39, became pregnant after IVF treatment. The couple were said to be ‘delighted’ when the pregnancy was announced in February. Family: Mary Portas with her partner Melanie Rickey have started a new family . The happy news comes just weeks after Melanie fainted in the street and broke her ankle, needing an operation. But the baby’s arrival two Sundays ago did not stop Miss Portas from launching a blistering attack on ministers, questioning their level of commitment to her campaign. David Cameron appointed Mary ‘shopping tsar’ last year in an attempt to reverse High Street decline. However, at a conference in Liverpool last week, she said she feared the project was nothing more than a PR exercise. Onlookers said she looked ‘tired and frazzled’, having welcomed the new baby just two days previously. Mary Portas has questioned the level of commitment that MPs are showing towards her campaign . Melanie, an editor at fashion magazine Grazia, is said to have wanted children for a long time. The identity of the father is unknown. Fashion entrepreneur Ms Portas, 51, has two teenage children by her former husband Graham Portas. She met Melanie nine years ago at a Royal College of Art dinner and entered into a civil partnership in May 2010. They live in Maida Vale, London, with Portas’s children. Mary has previously said: ‘I fell in love with a woman and I had to think about what I was prioritising. I thought that for once I was going to make sure I was totally and utterly happy, and therefore I was going to make it work.’ Britain's Prime Minister David Cameron and retail expert Mary Portas discussing the decline of town centres . In an interview last October to promote a new clothing line, she admitted that her children had initially found it difficult to adjust to her new relationship. Mary said: ‘All children want is for things to be normal. And you have to respect that. ‘But you can’t compromise your life, because when you are happy your children benefit from that.’ | Partner Melanie Rickey, 39, became pregnant after IVF treatment .

By . Margot Peppers . Most of us remember My Little Pony as a candy-colored horse with a comb to brush its mane, but the modern incarnation is closer to a Barbie than a pony. With each new generation, the plastic toys seem to have longer and skinnier legs, bigger eyes and more human-like traits. In the latest version, as seen in an upcoming straight-to-DVD movie, the ponies morph fully into Equestria Girls - teenage girl versions of the animals in high school. Scroll down for video . Transformation: Applejack, one of the original My Little Ponies released in 1983 (left), gets a human, Barbie-like makeover as an Equestria Girl (right) in an upcoming DVD movie . The Equestria Girls sport the ponies' signature rainbow-colored manes, and they even have matching tails. But in their human form, they also all have tiny waists and Barbie-like proportions, with somewhat risque outfits that feature miniskirts, tight tops and knee-high boots. Some have criticized Hasbro, the . company that produces My Little Pony, for taking the toys' transformation to this extreme, morphing them into characters that . resemble Bratz. One commenter wrote on Twitter: 'My Little Pony is becoming human! Beyond creepy.' Another concerned fan of the classic . toys wrote: 'In the My Little Pony movie they turn into people - what . are you doing? I don't want my little human, I might as well watch 16 . and pregnant.' And Karen Lau, a mom from New York City, told the New York Daily News that the modern takes on My Little Pony are too hot to trot. Equestria Girls: Some have criticized Hasbro for taking the transformation of My Little Ponys to this extreme, morphing them into characters that resemble Bratz . 'They look like the Spice Girls,' she said. 'They're a little too sexy. It's an image I don't want my daughters to grow up with.' But John A Frascotti, the chief marketing . officer at Hasbro, has defended the make-over, explaining that humanizing the animals . was a necessary move from a business perspective. 'They look like Spice Girls, a little too sexy - not an image I want my daughters to grow up with' 'We . are responding to the desire by our fans to experience the brand in . more ways,' he told the New York Times. 'They imagined themselves as which pony they would . be or which pony they identified with the most.' The new movie will follow Twilight Sparkle, a princess pony, who travels to the human world through a magical mirror. At a human-inhabited high school, Twilight Sparkle runs for Fall Formal Princess - essentially a form of Prom Queen - so she can win back the magical crown that rightfully belongs to her. Longer and leaner: A 1990 version of Pina Colada (left), and Apple Pie in 2002 (right) Evolution: In 2008, Cheerilee has a unicorn horn and a flowing pink mane (left). Generation 4 Fluttersy (right), launched in 2010, has wings and a button nose that looks nothing like that of a horse . This isn't the first time the ponies have undergone a dramatic transformation. The first generation of My Little Pony was the most similar to a real horse, with haunches, hooves and a mane - albeit a baby pink one. In 1989, the ponies were given more human-like smiles, as well as longer legs and hair. TV series Friendship Is Magic debuted in 2010. This saw the animals with longer legs, skinnier builds and big, anime-style eyes. Equestria Girls will be released on DVD on August 24, and will be broadcast on the Hub Network on September 1.

Ukip MEPs were today accused of showing 'complete disregard' for road safety after voting against new rules making it easier to track and punish reckless foreign motorists caught speeding in the UK. At the moment, foreign drivers caught by a speed camera cannot be fined because the police do not have the power to trace people abroad. But the European Parliament has backed new measures giving forces the power to send fines and pursue foreign motorists back to their home countries. But Ukip's MEPs voted against the measure, because it also allows foreign police forces to track British motorists caught speeding abroad. Motorists caught by speed cameras abroad face being tracked down and forced to pay a fine, under new EU rules . A Labour source said Ukip was showing 'complete disregard' for road safety in the UK. Shadow Transport Secretary Michael Dugher added: 'These new laws will make it easier to catch foreign drivers who commit offences within the UK. 'They will ensure that drivers in foreign-registered vehicles will no longer be able to just flout laws on serious driving offences without facing the consequences. It is right that the UK authorities will be able to get the tools they need to identify offenders. 'Why does UKIP want to let foreigners driving in Britain off the hook?' Motorists can already be traced abroad if they are driving hire cars or given on-the-spot fines. But the new rules will allow motorists to be fined for speeding, ignoring a red light, drink and drug driving and driving while using a mobile phone. If a driver commits an offence in another country, the police will be able to use their car's registration number to track them down. They will be given the power to send out a letter in the driver's own language, demanding payment and threatening court action if they do not pay the fine. Labour's shadow transport secretary Michael Dugher has slammed Nigel Farage over Ukip's failure to back new rules making it easier to catch foreign motorists flouting the law in the UK . It means British police will be able to pursue foreign motorists driving in Britain for any traffic and speeding fines they have accumulated in the UK. The Bill will apply to member states from May – but the UK will have two years to enforce the new law. The move, which is backed by ministers, has been welcomed by road safety campaigners. Ed Morrow, from the organisation Brake, said: 'For a driver who puts lives at risk to escape prosecution because their vehicle is registered in another country is both insulting and incomprehensible for victims. Illegal driving crosses borders, so enforcement must cross borders too.' The Department for Transport added: 'It's not right that foreign drivers have gone unpunished for speeding offences in the UK, and we are pleased this is set to change. 'But it mustn't be easier for British drivers to be prosecuted abroad than for foreign drivers to be prosecuted in the UK. We have made this clear from the outset of the negotiations.' But, Ukip transport spokeswoman Jill Seymour said: 'Typically the Tory government say they will oppose it in London while Tory MEPs vote for it in Brussels. 'Ukip are completely united in their will that only British authorities have access to the data about British drivers. The EU harmonisation of legislation means the centralisation of power in Brussels. The LibLabCon may consent to this but UKIP never will. 'This report relates to speeding offences; the idea is to be able to transfer licence points across Member States. Not all Member States are the same; this could lead to unfair cases of people being banned from driving. 'LibLabCon meps are happy for you to lose your license....Just ask them about it in May.

A 'killer seagull' has been spotted dragging pigeons into Hyde Park's Serpentine lake and drowning them before eating the bodies. Visitors to the central London park say the hungry bird has taken to grabbing the pigeons by the neck before pulling them into the water. It is thought that the same seagull has been spotted on the banks of the Serpentine hunting pigeons and feasting on their remains for the past five years. Scroll down for video . Hunter: A 'killer seagull' has been spotted grabbing pigeons by the neck, dragging them into Hyde Park's Serpentine lake and drowning them before eating the bodies . Vicious: Visitors to the central London park say the hungry bird has taken to grabbing the pigeons by the neck before pulling them into the water . Amateur photographer Johanna van de Woestijne, 57, was walking in the park when she witnessed its dramatic hunting technique. She said: 'It was one of the most violent things I have ever seen - after it happened I felt I had witnessed a murder. 'I’ve seen him hunting pigeons on two separate days, both times he picked them off, dragged them into the lake and drowned them. 'He is easy to spot as he has a distinctive look. He is fairly squat and looks muscular, like a bodybuilder. It must be the high meat diet he’s living on.' Witness: Photographer Johanna van de Woestijne, 57, said the way the seagull killed the pigeon was 'one of the most vicious things' she had ever seen, and said it had been like watching a murder . Unusual: Bird experts have said that the behaviour is extremely unusual for lesser black-backed gulls - which usually survive on a diet of small fish, aquatic insects and crustaceans . The aggressive bird wades into a crowd of pigeons, picks out a straggler, then sprints up and seizes it by the neck. It then drags its prey into the Serpentine and drowns it before eating it with his mate. Bird experts have said that the behaviour is extremely unusual for lesser black-backed gulls - which usually survive on a diet of small fish, aquatic insects and crustaceans. Birdwatcher, Ralph Hancock, 66, said he had been observing the menacing gull in the same spot for the past five years. 'It is one of the strangest things I have ever seen a bird do,' he said. Dinner time: After drowning the pigeon in the water, the gull shares its prey with its female mate . 'This particular gull has been doing this for at least five years, and the stripped corpses of pigeons are often found on the shore of the lake.' Mr Hancock, who writes a blog about the behaviour of birds in Hyde Park, said the gull had developed its murderous technique over several years. He said: 'The gull began by dropping from the restaurant roof on pigeons flying underneath, but found this inefficient and switched to running at them on the shore. 'Gulls can’t hunt their prey like hawks, which have powerful feet that can strangle a bird even if it’s almost as large as they are. Gulls have weak little webbed feet, that is why they have to drag the bird into the water and drown it.' Distinctive: Park visitors say the bird is fairly squat and looks muscular, 'like a bodybuilder' Repeat offender: The same gull is thought to have been feasting on the pigeons for at least five years, and the stripped corpses of the birds are often found on the shore of the lake . Mr Hancock said he had not seen any other gulls in the park eating the pigeons. 'Normally when a gull has a successful feeding strategy, other gulls copy it - this is why so many gulls snatch ice cream at the beach,' he said. 'No other gull has managed to copy it here, at least not so far - the others probably aren’t powerful enough. 'The gull is male and has a mate, who is smaller - male gulls are slightly larger than females. She doesn’t take part in the killing, but comes in afterwards and they share the pigeon.'

By . Margot Peppers . Baby product company Graco has come under fire after one of its double strollers was seemed unsafe because it failed a brakes test. According to the latest issue of Consumer Reports, the Ready2Grow Classic Connect LX, which costs $210, raised safety concerns during a routine test after its brakes released when it was angled 19 degrees up on a tilt table. 'If you must use one of those strollers, be aware of the potential brake issue,' warns the magazine, which labeled the stroller a 'Don't Buy' product. Bad review: Consumer Reports has labeled Graco's Ready2Grow Classic Connect LX stroller (pictured) a 'Don't buy' product after its brakes released when it was angled 19-degrees up on a tilt table during a safety test . Consumer Reports also found that after the stroller underwent the test, the plastic teeth that lock the wheel sin place were bent and showed stress marks. The company responded that there have been no brake-related injuries reported for this particular model, and Consumer Reports confirmed this claim. Graco added that the brakes are being upgraded 'as part of continuous improvement,' and that the new system will meet the safety standard as tested by the magazine. The stroller, which is able to carry two children simultaneously, is one of the most popular purchases on the Graco website, with customers giving it an average rating of 4.2 out of five stars. But Consumer Reports further explained its negative review in a video on its website. 'We've tested more than 160 strollers, and this is the only one where the brake gave way' 'We've tested more than 160 strollers, single and double that are listed in our ratings,' says John Galeotafiore, head of stroller testing for Consumer Reports, in the video. 'And this is the only one where the brake gave way.' The publication even went so far as to . recommend that parents who have already purchased one of the models in . question should ask the retailer for a refund. Defense: Graco says there have been no brake-related injuries reported for this model, a claim that Consumer Reports has confirmed. Pictured: The stroller failing the tilt test . Expert opinion: The publication recommends that parents who have already purchased one of the models ask the retailer for a refund. Pictured: Consumer Reports' head of stroller testing . Models Ready 2 Grow Classix Connect LX, the Classic Connect, Click Connect LX and Click Connect were all included in the 'Don't Buy' rating. A spokesperson for Graco has refuted the unfavorable write-up, calling Consumer Reports' test measures 'unreasonably excessive'. 'Our test is designed to assess whether strollers have an extra margin of safety' 'While we share a common commitment to the safety of families that use our products, we strongly disagree with Consumer Reports' assertion that our Ready2Grow Classic Connect stroller is unsafe,' the spokesperson told CNNMoney. But Mr Galeotafiore explains: 'Our test is rigorous. But it's designed to assess whether strollers have an extra margin of safety.' | Consumer Reports found that the brakes on the Ready2Grow Classic Connect LX released at an upwards tilt of 19 degrees .

Real Madrid's 22-game winning streak was ended by an inspired Valencia in one of the most thrilling games of the season so far, despite Cristiano Ronaldo putting his side into the lead from the spot. Antonio Barragan got Los Che back on level terms before another defender, Nicolas Otamendi headed his side in front to stun Carlo Ancelotti's side. It handed Barcelona the chance to get back in the La Liga driving seat, but they spurned it against David Moyes' Real Sociedad and it means Madrid are top of the table by a point, with an extra game still to make up.

Booked: Ramos, Carvajal, Isco. Goal: Ronaldo pen 14. Ref: Jesus Gil Manzano. Attendance: 50,738. Valencia played with amazing intensity, continuing their revival this season under Nuno Espirito Santo and showed they are good value to get back into the Champions League. This was the scene of one of Gareth Bale's greatest triumphs, the ground where he scored that brilliant solo goal against Barcelona in the Copa del Rey, but along with Karim Benzema he was substituted as Madrid desperately searched for an equaliser. January is usually a gruelling month in Spain because that tournament begins for La Liga sides, and this year is no different. Real face local rivals Atletico Madrid on Wednesday night in the cup, but Ancelotti picked his strongest available side. The last time these teams met, it took a quite brilliant Ronaldo strike to earn Real Madrid a point, the Portugal star's acrobatic backheel one of the goals of the season. Luka Modric was missing that day and injury again prevented the Croatian from playing—he is expected back in February—while Marcelo and Sergio Ramos, both injury doubts, started. There is a good feeling around Valencia this season, especially now Peter Lim is in control of the club's affairs. New €25million signing Enzo Perez was incorporated into the midfield straight away, replacing the suspended Javi Fuego. Seven thousand Valencia fans were there to greet the team bus when it arrived, and created a huge tifo reading 'Yes we can', while Lim himself visited the dressing room. The supporters weren't particularly keen on their team giving Real Madrid a guard of honour at the start of the game, to recognise their Club World Cup success, and made their feelings known. The only time Valencia have fallen at home this season was against Barcelona and even that was a barely deserved, last-minute win thanks to Sergio Busquets ramming home after a scramble in the box. Going to the Mestalla is no easy task, and Valencia made sure of it from the off, with a string of challenges that toed a fine line between hard-but-fair and brutal. Nuno's side accumulated an astonishing five bookings in the first half, including one for new boy Perez.

Ronaldo holds his hands to his lips after coming close to scoring his second goal of the evening . Valencia's strong starts have been notable this season, particularly when they raced into a 3-0 lead over Champions Atletico Madrid, whom they trail by a point after this game. But despite coming out all guns blazing, it was Madrid that took the lead. Alvaro Negredo handled the ball in the box after a Toni Kroos free kick had not been dealt with, and Ronaldo sent penalty expert Diego Alves the wrong way from the spot. Historically Los Che have a strong record against Real Madrid, having beaten them 42 times, more than any other side in Spanish football history. Recent years have proved more disappointing though, with the club unable to attain victory in any of the previous 10 clashes with Los Blancos. Against Barcelona, Valencia had not been able to maintain their intensity, but here they did, coming out in the second half swinging, and they got their reward. Barragan, the right-back who is out of contract in the summer, was having a marvellous game and on one of his runs forward earned some space for a shot, just outside the box. His strike deflected off Pepe and past the helpless Casillas, setting the stadium alight. And then, the unthinkable. Daniel Parejo swung the ball in from a corner kick and Nicolas Otamendi rose highest, thanks to a superhuman, hanging leap, and planted the ball far beyond Casillas to send the Valencia supporters wild. The rampaging Barragan had another chance shortly after Valencia took the lead but fired inches wide of Casillas' far post after some stunning build-up play and Andre Gomes' through-ball. Madrid hooked Bale, Karim Benzema and James Rodriguez, with Sami Khedira, Jese and Javier Hernandez thrown on in their places. They came extremely close through Isco but goalkeeper Diego Alves made an outstanding save from his header, before goalscorer Otamendi acrobatically smashed the ball off the line to prevent Ronaldo following up. He had another chance towards the end but span a header wide of the near post when he should have hit the target. The front cover of Barcelona-based newspaper Sport had read 'Liga caliente', signifying that the title race was hotting up. It was more in hope than expectation, but Valencia at a riotous Mestalla, came through. Valencia's defender Barragan (centre) celebrates after bringing the home side level in the second half .

Newcastle winger Rolando Aarons is still waiting for the club to open talks over a new contract, with Bundesliga side Schalke interested in signing the player who first caught the eye during a pre-season tournament in Gelsenkirchen. Sportsmail understands that Aarons and United are yet to sit down to discuss an improvement to his first professional deal, signed only in April and set to expire in the summer of 2016. The player’s representatives are surprised by the delay and hope the 19-year-old will be rewarded for his senior breakthrough and involvement in the England Under 20 set-up, where he has won an admirer in Roy Hodgson. Newcastle's Rolando Aarons tussles with Manchester City's Bacary Sagna in the league cup game in October . Aarons scored his first competitive goal for Newcastle against Manchester City in the league cup in October . The Three Lions boss is not the only one impressed by the Jamaican-born teenager. Manchester City and Liverpool are both circling, but it is the interest from Schalke which is strongest. They noted Aarons’ name back in August when the then unknown wideman lit up a four-team tournament at the Veltins Arena. Indeed, he scored his first senior goal in a 3-1 win over the hosts and his performance that weekend won him permanent elevation to Alan Pardew’s first-team ranks. Aarons, though, is currently sidelined with a hamstring problem and will miss Saturday's visit of Queens Park Rangers. The 19-year-old is congratulated by Newcastle manager Alan Pardew after scoring against Manchester City . Newcastle – victorious in their last five in all competitions – will be without injured skipper Fabricio Coloccini and vice-captain Cheick Tiote, while Steven Taylor and Mehdi Abeid are also absent. Striker Papiss Cisse is still struggling for his fitness – despite scoring in midweek for Senegal – and will not start, meaning Ayoze Perez will again lead the line. The 21-year-old Spaniard has scored three in three – his last an exquisite back-heel in the victory at West Brom – and has been the subject of headlines comparing him to some of the club’s great No 9s, not that Pardew welcomes such exposure. ‘Some of the headlines have been way off the mark – the new Alan Shearer, the new Andy Cole,’ said the United boss. Ayoze Perez scores with an exquisite back-heel against West Brom in Newcastle's last Premier League game . The 21-year-old celebrates with Aarons after scoring the winning goal against Liverpool this month . ‘This is a boy who has played three games. Those players are legends and have done it all. ‘But at the moment he’s fearless. He’s got the wind in his sails and is going along very nicely. He’s been very sharp in training. He’s a threat. ‘If you take your eye off him he’s a predator. I’m sure QPR will be having conversations of how to look after him. He’s difficult to pin down, his movement is very clever. ‘He is just setting foot in the Premier League, but I have to say he’s done really well so far. I’m pleased with him. He’s a smashing player and is low maintenance.’ Meanwhile, Pardew has defended his decision to tell Jonas Gutierrez to find a new club after the player first returned from testicular cancer treatment last December. Jonas Gutierrez was told that he did not feature in Newcastle's plans last December . Pardew, pictured taking a Newcastle training session, insists the decision was 'purely football' The 31-year-old is due back on Tyneside next month having successfully fought the illness for a second time and has spoken in his homeland of his disappointment with events of 12 months ago. But Pardew said: ‘It was a pure football decision and those are decisions that have to be made. ‘It’s difficult – when you’ve said to a player to get a new club and unfortunately the illness has come. ‘You try to be supportive but, of course, the players wants to find a bit more assurance than that. ‘But that decision was a 100 per cent football decision. I want to invite Jonas back and give him the best possible chance when he returns. ‘What he has done is absolutely marvellous, to recover like he has. ‘We’re very proud of what he’s done.’ | Aarons signed his first professional contract with Newcastle in April .
The 19-year-old's rise has been meteoric since the start of the season .
He broke into the first team and has since represented England Under 20s .
Schalke interest comes after Aarons impressed against them pre-season .
Alan Pardew said comparisons between striker Ayoze Perez and Alan Shearer are way off the mark .
But the Newcastle manager praised the 21-year-old for his start at the club .
Pardew also said the decision to tell Jonas Gutierrez he did not feature in his plans last Decmber was purely a 'football one' | 56e0141d4404ff91bebcb588665c01b66b0ead91 | [

Britain joined the U.S. and its allies in the fight against ISIS -- but any mission will come with a huge price tag. The UK parliament has approved airstrikes in Iraq against the terror group which prime minister David Cameron has called one of "staggering" brutality. Cameron had said Britain should join international allies in combating ISIS, an action that he warned would "take not just months, but years." While the total cost will depend on the intensity and length of operation, past experience can give some guidance, Malcolm Chalmers, research director from the Royal United Services Institute said. Chalmers pointed to the UK's seven month involvement in Libya through 2011, which cost around $390 million, including missiles and flight hours. The bill is additional to standard defense budgets, which include staffing costs and weapons spend. Last year, the UK defense budget was $60 billion. Chalmers said he would expect the cost of ISIS airstrikes to be in the "ballpark," of the Libya operation, "assuming we only use air power and the campaign lasts for a couple of years." Cameron has said that the mission against ISIS could last "years." However, it is U.S.-led rather than the operation in Libya, in which European countries took the lead. 'Unique' missiles . Cameron, in Friday's debate aimed at convincing parliament to approve airstrikes, said Britain has "unique assets" no other coalition ally can contribute. Cameron named the Brimstone precision missile, which he said minimized risk of civilian casualties, as one only Britain could contribute. The missiles can target convoys as well as fast moving, fleeting targets that were previously harder to strike, according to IHS Jane's senior weapons analyst Ben Goodlad. The Brimstone, which travels at supersonic speed, is a 1.8-meter missile weighing just under 50 kg. Advanced radar equipment enables it to guides itself to the target, so pilots don't need to maneuver to release it. IHS Jane's estimates each missile costs around $240,000. Brimstone missiles are compatible with the UK's Tornado GR4 aircraft. The aircraft were used by British troops for relief missions in northern Iraq just over a month ago. Six of these are ready for deployment at the UK's RAF base in Cyprus. Flying the Tornadoes costs around $57,000 per hour, according to information released in a parliamentary debate about Libya in 2011. From the Cyprus base, the aircraft could reach Iraq in just over an hour. Goodlad said the RAF also has Tornado's Storm Shadow cruise missiles, which cost $1.3 million each, and submarine-launched Tomahawk cruise missiles. These can be used to target areas that can't be accessed by planes, for example due to defenses, and cost round $1.5 million each. U.S. forces have been using Tomahawk missiles for airstrikes in Syria earlier this week -- dropping 47 of them on Monday evening. In total, the U.S. has conducted 20 strikes in Syria and 198 in Iraq from August 8 through September 23. Many of those operations weren't included in the Pentagon's daily average spending figure of $7.5 million at the end of last month. | UK can start bombing ISIS within hours, as it has six fighter jets on standby in Cyprus .

Floppy feline: Four month old rescue kitten Harvey was born with bones missing from his two front legs . The pictures of Harvey the kitten crawling around on his elbows tugged at the heart-strings of cat-lovers across the globe. The four-month-old cat rescue cat was born with a rare condition which meant he had no bones in his front legs.

The money has flooded in during the past few days to a JustGiving webpage, called . 'Harvey's Appeal', set up by staff at Glasgow Cats Protection. Harvey, who has a rare condition . called radial agenesis, was spotted when his owner put him up for sale . on the online advertising site Gumtree. An X-ray revealed that Harvey’s ulna and radius bones, which connect the upper half of his front legs to his paws, were missing.

Cruel: The kitten, which suffers with radial agenesis, had been listed for sale on the advertising website Gumtree by its cruel former owner . Operation: Harvey is missing the bones that connect the upper half of the front legs to the paws, but is due to have metal pins fitted as a replacement thanks to animal charity Cats Protection .

It said in the advert he had two broken legs but when she . got there he had no bones at all.

By . Naomi Greenaway . If your supermarket vouchers are stuffed at the bottom of a drawer nearing their expiry date, it's time to take a leaf out of cash-savvy Emma Mumford's book. The 20-year-old from Dorchester, Dorset saves a staggering £2,000 a MONTH by using coupons and vouchers. When Emma's relationship ended, she found herself lumped with rent, bills and £7,000 worth of debt, which she couldn't afford. Scroll down for video . Emma Mumford saves a staggering £2,000 a MONTH by using coupons and vouchers . So Emma decided to make her wages as a part-time shop assistant in Next stretch as far as possible - by becoming a voucher vulture. Emma, who so far has struggled to find full time employment, spends 10 hours online each week searching for the latest vouchers, deals and coupons to save her money. And every month, she saves herself £2,000 on the cost of clothes, food, presents and days out - which amounts to a whopping £24,000 a year. 'Getting a good bargain is addictive. I just love the feeling of saving money and I make sure I never do without,' says Emma. When 20-year-old Emma's relationship ended she found herself lumped with rent, bills and and £7,000 worth of debt and became obsessed with using coupons . 'I have all the same things as my friends, but I still manage to save money at the end of the month,' she adds. Coupon-crazy Emma has turned her whole life around and converted to a money-saving way of life. She now no longer buys anything full price and with careful planning she is able to buy presents, food and even holidays for a fraction of their recommended price. Emma shows off her array of vouchers (above left) and her supermarket savings (above right) When there is a specific deal on, Emma will make sure she takes full advantage of it and often this means bulk-buying products with offers on such as shampoo and toothpaste. 'When I found myself in a desperate situation with no money, I didn't want to resort to selling everything I owned or getting in trouble with debt collectors,' she explains. Emma from Dorchester, Dorset, decided to make her wages as a part-time shop assistant in Next stretch as far as possible by becoming a coupon-savvy shopper . 'I knew I needed to make some savings somewhere and I had no idea how I was going to manage,' she says. 'I first heard about extreme couponing from an American TV programme, and ever since I started it has turned my life around. 'It really is a way of life and I don't understand why more people don't take it up.' Dripping in coupons: Emma has moved back in with her parents and pays minimal rent but has helped the family by slashing their £330 a month food bill in half . 'It takes a bit of effort in the beginning but who hasn't got the time to save themselves money?,' she says. 'The key is to be open-minded. People are slaves to brands when in reality cheaper versions are identical.' Emma moved out of the flat she shared with her ex-partner and now saves £300 a month by living at home with her parents. Emma says, 'I pay my parents £80 a month rent, which isn't as much as I'd like to, but with my wages that's all they ask for.' Emma Mumford saves the £95 a month she used to spend on gel nails by using a £10 home nail kit . 'But I do my best to save them money with things like the utility bills and food shop. It's my way of helping out,' she says. Emma makes sure that just because she doesn't splash the cash, she doesn't go without. She still manages to pamper herself each month with gel nails and a professional haircut and colour - all for just £20. Emma managed to slash the £95 she would have paid for her nails and hair in a salon too by using a £10 home kit for her nails, which she can do as she is a qualified nail technician. And she has her hair cut and coloured each month at her local Toni & Guy hairdressers for just £10 by offering to pose as a hair model. Cash-savvy Emma purchased her entire summer wardrobe in February, for just £60 by taking advantage of online codes and in-store vouchers . 'The haircuts are always supervised and I was nervous at first but I would highly recommend it, as it saves so much money and my hair looks great,' she says. Cash-savvy Emma purchased her entire summer wardrobe in February, for just £60 by taking advantage of online codes and in-store vouchers. Emma said, 'I'm a self-confessed fashion-lover and always preach Primark over Zara. For my spring/summer 2014 wardrobe, I bought it all in the beginning of February. 'I always find if you buy spring clothes as soon as they are launched they are very cheap. The shops put the prices up as soon as the weather warms up so usually around May.' 'I resent paying £50 for the same white blouse I could buy for £5 in a different shop.' Emma Mumford has managed to save £24,000 a year on supermarket shopping, clothes and treats by using coupons . And generous Emma even uses her savings to treat her family. This year, Emma spoiled her mum Jill on Mother's Day without spending a single penny. She bought Cadbury's chocolates, flowers and a card which should have been £10 for absolutely nothing, after saving up Morrisons' coupons. And she also won a birthday photo shoot for her mum worth £75 through a local radio competition offering vouchers for the shoot. 'Couponing is a great way for those who are feeling the pinch to get back in control of their finances,' says Emma. Before Emma's couponing days, the family of three would spend £330 a month on food and drink. But now Emma has convinced her parents to shop around and ditch the brands, she has slashed the family's food bill in half and now they spend just £10 a head, per week. Emma said, 'I have created a giant stockpile of things like toothpaste and shampoo which will last at least six months, so that costs me nothing.' On days out with her boyfriend Mitch, Emma will always use BOGOF vouchers and she will stay in with a bottle of discount wine, over expensive nights out in clubs. Emma has even blagged a two day holiday to Disneyland Paris for her 21st birthday with her parents, all expenses included, for just £93 a head instead of the £900 RRP. Emma said: 'I would never go back to frittering money away, couponing and saving money is now my way of life. 'The savings I have made mean that my finances are now getting back on trackand I don't have to worry each month.'

(EW.com) -- Director Baz Luhrmann's 3-D film "The Great Gatsby" will open in theaters nationwide and in Canada on May 10, then worldwide the following week. The film was initially scheduled to hit theaters on Christmas day, but Warner Bros. pushed the release back last August. The adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic 1925 novel stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, Carey Mulligan, and Joel Edgerton. The film will now be able to "beat on, against the current" as it will no longer be competing with The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, Les Misérables, This is 40, Zero Dark Thirty, Django Unchained, and other December blockbusters. "Audiences have been looking forward to Baz Luhrmann's film adaptation of one of the most beloved books of all time, and we felt this beautifully extravagant and dramatic film would be a perfect way for us to kick off our Summer slate," president of Warner Bros. domestic distribution Dan Fellman said in a press release.

By . Jeff Powell . Follow @@jeffpowell_Mail . Manny Pacquiao’s return journey to Las Vegas has taken him via Jimmy Kimmel’s chat show on American television, where he was joined on camera by Bill Clinton. The former US president not only expressed his unbounded admiration of the PacMan as a boxer but endorsed him as a future leader of the Philippines. The man standing in the way of the first of those ambitions sees that celebrity shoulder-rubbing as further reason why he will beat the legendary Pacquiao for a second time in the MGM Grand Garden. VIDEO Scroll down to watch Pacquiao train and arrive in Las Vegas ahead of bout . All smiles: Manny Pacquiao appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live, making quite an impression on former president Bill Clinton . Back in the limelight: The old master Clinton shares a gag with chat-show host Kimmel . Tim Bradley, the defending WBO welterweight champion, says: ‘Manny is not as hungry as he used to be. He’s lost the fire.’ Bradley would be unwise to rely too much on his suspicion that Pacquiao has gone into decline since he was awarded a quite scandalous points victory over him in their first fight. Or that the PacMan’s political duties as a senator and champion of the poor in his country are such a distraction that he has lost a vital measure of his interest in proving himself one of the greatest fighters of his generation. Pacquiao, although respectful of Bradley, remains deeply aggravated by the blinkered Nevadan judges who consigned him to the first of two defeats which jeopardised his ring career. Fully focused? Tim Bradley has accused Pacquiao of taking his mind off the game . Defending champion: Bradley can inflict the third defeat of Pacquiao's glittering career on Saturday night . In a way, the spectacular knockout loss which followed was fuelled by the need he felt to look impressive in his fourth battle with Juan Manuel Marquez. Sensing he was about to stop his bitter Mexican rival, Pacquiao stayed in range too long and was caught by desperate punch. Bradley also draws encouragement from Pacquiao, in his comeback fight from that upset, failing to apply the knockout to Brandon Rios despite comprehensively out-classing him over 12 rounds. Pacquiao had shown signs of showing sympathy and easing up against inferior opponents previously, Bradley among them. But now his master-trainer Freddie Roach has spent months instilling in him the need to go for the kill when he has a man in trouble... not least to avoid leaving himself at the mercy of incompetent or prejudiced judges. ‘I want Manny to go for the KO against Bradley,’ says Roach. ‘And I expect him to get it.’ Masters at work: Trainer Freddie Roach says Pacquiao will KO his American opponent in Sin City . Grudge match: Bradley celebrates with the welterweight belt after beating the Filipino almost two years ago . If he’s right, it would make the powerful statement which even Floyd Mayweather would find hard to ignore. Bradley is unbeaten in 33 fights. In the most recent of those, last October, he cleverly and clearly out-pointed Marquez, and he has certainly developed as a boxer since that first meeting with Pacquiao two years ago. However, Pacquiao has much to prove – and even more money than usual to look forward to if he can arouse the public to harass Mayweather into meeting him in what would-be the richest fight in ring history. I have no idea how much Mr Clinton knows about boxing but as a genius at political survival he can certainly recognise the qualities of a committed professional in-fighter when he sees one. Bradley acknowledges that the scoring controversy which blighted their first fight has hurt public perception of him and he, too, is eager reconfirm his reputation as a formidable boxer in his own right. But when he warns ‘this fight will not go the distance’ he may find Pacquiao only too willing to endorse that prediction... albeit not in the way he means it. Carl Frampton fully deserves to be viewed as the heir apparent to his own mentor, the great Barry McGuigan, in the firmament of Northern Irish boxing. The super-bantamweight from the Tiger’s Bay area of Belfast is bringing back to Ulster the roaring atmosphere which pervaded McGuigan’s own ascent to world championship glory. By intimidating Hugo Cazares into defeat at the weekend, Frampton laid mandatory claim to a first world title shot of his own and promoter McGuigan hopes to tempt the WBC champion to Belfast later this year, possibly for a stadium fight. Home comforts: Carl Frampton (right) was in scintillating form, beating Mexican Hugo Cazares inside two rounds in his native Belfast . Mentor: The great Barry McGuigan cheers his protege's victory in front of a partisan crowd . Even as that prospect opened up temptation appeared in the shape of Guillermo Rigondeaux, who promptly volunteered to bring his WBA, WBO and Ring Magazine belts across the Atlantic.Careful, Carl and Barry. Rigondeaux, as a two-time Olympic gold medallist, was one of the greatest amateur boxers of all time. Since defecting from Cuba he has won his first world title on only his ninth professional outing and gone on to totally outclass and bewilder Nonito Donaire, the Filipino touted as the next Manny Pacquiao, in a unification bout. Pacquaio’s own Hall of Fame trainer, Freddie Roach, describes Rigondeaux as ‘probably the greatest talent I’ve ever seen.’ Future opponent: The dangerous Guillermo Rigondeaux awaits somewhere on the horizon for Frampton . In terms of punching accuracy, mastery of the noble art of self-defence and pure skill it is hard to argue, even though American audiences have not yet taken to his elusive style. So Frampton and McGuigan need to stick with Plan A, hopefully overcome Santa Cruz wherever that happens and develop towards a Rigondeaux fight as the Cuban, now 33, ages a little and his phenomenal reflexes slow a fraction. At the moment, Rigondeaux is a man you can’t hit. Santa Cruz is a fight Frampton can win. As Enzo Maccarinelli’s right eye closed – and his vision of becoming a two-weight world champion disappeared from his sight – some of boxing’s old-stagers took to wondering why his corner did not apply a rather gruesome remedy of the past to the swelling. Maccarinelli was wounded by a clash of heads in the first round of his challenge for Juergen Braehmer’s WBA light-heavyweight title in Rostock, Germany. The swelling around the eye ballooned up as he took a couple of left hooks to the damaged area from Braehmer, who himself had suffered a cut eye in the collision. Warrior: Enzo Maccarinelli battled on for four rounds with this nasty eye injury . A sorry sight: Maccarinelli's title dreams were ended as his cornerman threw in the towel . Maccarinelli gamely fought on but as he took increasing punishment from punches he could not see, trainer Gary Lockett pulled him out at the end of the fifth. In years gone by fabled American corner-men – Muhammad Ali’s trainer Angelo Dundee prominent among them – would have bled out the pus by taking a razor-blade to slit the engorged area. Old master: Angelo Dundee (right) attends to Muhammad Ali (then Cassius Clay) during his 1966 victory against Karl Mildenberger . Since the worst of the swelling was below the eye, that primitive option was open to Team Enzo.Maccarinelli is a brave man who no doubt would have agreed had they put it to him. Instead, still only 33 but with several heavy KOs among his seven defeats, he is left to ponder whether this particular retirement should become permanent. | Manny Pacquiao appeared on the Jimmy Kimmel Show with Bill Clinton, giving Tim Bradley more belief that the former champ has lost his fire .

Showing public executions, corpses being devoured by wild animals, the bombing of a hospital and people being shot - it’s not, some would say, a typical children's movie. But the latest instalment of The Hunger Games phenomenon has been handed an M classification in Australia – which means it is recommended for mature audiences and not for persons who are under 15, although there are no legal restrictions on access. Following the world premiere of the film in London Monday night, critics questioned whether the classification was appropriate and warned the graphic scenes in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1 could ‘normalise’ violence and ‘traumatise’ children.

While it doesn't premiere in Australia until Friday night, the concerns around the rating have been mirrored here. Professor Elizabeth Handsley from the Australian Council on Children and the Media told Daily Mail Australia the M classification is a very broad category. 'The question is whether it sends a strong enough message to parents about the need to be careful especially with younger children,' she told Daily Mail Australia. Prof Handsley says while she hasn't seen the latest Hunger Games film, she has referred to the past two instalments, which also had a classification of M. She says there were a lot of dark scenes and she struggles to fully understand the classifications they were given. 'The M category can include romantic comedies with sex and swearing and then darker films like Hunger Games.' She questions whether Hunger Games should be in the same categories as movies like, 'He's just not that into you' and 'Hulk'. Critics have warned the graphic scenes in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1 could ‘normalise’ violence and ‘traumatise’ children .

Actor Liam Hemsworth at the Hunger Games Mockingjaypart 1 London premiere . 'Being in the same category it confuses parents, it's a weak message and it's making it more difficult for parents to make a call on what their children should see,' she said. The Australian Classification Board said in it's decision report it could not be recommended for viewing by persons who are under 15 although there are no legal restrictions on access. It stated the film was classified M as the viewing impact of the themes and violence in the film was moderate. The board says it had a moderate sense of threat and menace, referring to scenes in the film that included skeletal and mummified dead people, the execution of captives and the mental torture of captives by the capital. It argued that while there was an execution of three civilians in front of a crowd, 'it is mitigated by a lack of blood and wound detail'. The board also made reference to the bombing of a hospital and the shooting down of planes, classing them as 'moderate violence'. Katniss (pictured) is involved in a number of violent and mature scenes. Questions have been raised whether the M classification is enough .

The latest instalment of The Hunger Games phenomenon has been handed an M classification in Australia, which has been questioned due to the violence and mature themes presented in the film . The film, released on November 20 in Australia, is the third in the wildly popular series based on the children’s books by Suzanne Collins, which have sold 80 million copies. They have been so successful that there are plans for a stage show in 2016, and the first two films grossed over $60 million at the Australian box office. But both also caused controversy for their same M ratings, with some parents claiming their children had been so distressed that they had to leave the cinema early. Following the first Hunger Games film in 2012, a blogger on Mumsnet.com said, 'My 12 year old was so distressed at one particular part, not long before the end that we had to leave the cinema.' Another blogger said the film was really good but she thought it was stretching the rating. Another said her kids, who were under 13, loved it while another blogger claimed she took her 10 year old as he had read all the books and knew he would handle the film. One parent blogger also said her child had complained that the killing scenes were 'shakey' so you couldn't see what was happening.

By . John Hall . A bouncer who left a handyman permanently brain damaged with a single punch to the head has been jailed for just 16 months. Scott Taylor, 42, was left disabled and in need of full-time care after a punch caused the father-of-three's skull to collapse inwards outside Bar Station in Wellington, Shropshire in August 2012. Mr Taylor's' family branded the 16 month prison sentence given to Neil Hotchkiss, 33, 'ridiculous' and an 'utter disgrace', after the bouncer admitted grievous bodily harm at Shrewsbury Crown Court. Injury: Scott Taylor, 42, was left disabled and in need of full-time care after a single punch caused his skull to collapse inwards. He suffered extensive brain damage and will be in a wheelchair for the rest of his life . Upset: Kirsty Taylor (pictured right with her father) branded the 16 month prison sentence given to Neil Hotchkiss an 'utter disgrace'. Mr Taylor (left) is now permanently disabled after being punched in the head . Mr Taylor had been out drinking at Bar Station in Wellington on a Friday night when father-of-eight Hotchkiss asked him to leave the establishment. After a brief exchange of words, Hotchkiss punched Mr Taylor, knocking him out cold with a single punch and causing him to collapse on the pavement. Mr Taylor was taken to the University Hospital of North Staffordshire in a critical condition and placed on a life support machine. The grandfather-of-one had suffered a skull fracture and extensive brain damage from the fall, with the injuries leaving him in need of a wheelchair for the rest of his life. Mr Taylor was also left with a shocking dent in the side of his head caused by his skull collapsing, with the injury needing to be filled out with fat from his stomach. Wound: The grandfather-of-one had suffered a skull fracture and extensive brain damage from the fall, with the injuries leaving him in need of a wheelchair for the rest of his life . Jailed: Neil Hotchkiss admitted grievous bodily harm at Shrewsbury Crown Court . Speaking after Hotchkiss was jailed for 16 months at Shrewsbury Crown Court yesterday, Mr Taylor's daughter Kirsty, 19, branded the sentence an utter disgrace. 'It’s just ridiculous. There’s shoplifters that get longer than that... My dad’s life is ruined, he can’t get up, he can’t get out of bed himself, he can’t even sit up himself,' she said. 'I remember it like it was yesterday. The police knocked on the door at 4am and rushed me to hospital. He was in intensive carer and they didn’t think he was going to survive,' she added. Ms Taylor, who is now her father's full-time carer, said he was kept on a life support machine for a long time after the punch. She said that until her father's skull was reconstructed, it looked like half his head was missing. Mr Taylor has since had a stroke, although doctors can't be certain if that was linked to the injuries. 'I’m just so angry that it’s such a short sentence...He was using the sob story in court that he has got eight kids,' Ms Taylor said. 'Dad just says the same as me that it is ridiculous and he is angry too - it is an utter disgrace,' she added. Since the attack, Mr Taylor has had to move from his home to a warden-assisted bungalow. He is visited by professional carers four times a day, with Ms Taylor also spending eight hours at the property. Scene: Mr Taylor had been out drinking at Bar Station in Wellington (pictured) on a Friday night when father-of-eight Hotchkiss asked him to leave the establishment . 'His speech is affected, you probably wouldn’t be able to speak him and understand him if you didn’t know him,' she said. 'He can pick up the drink and have a drink but he can’t feed himself and he can’t move around himself,' Ms Taylor added. 'My dad has a life sentence and will always be like this and it affects his three children too,' she said. Prosecutor Andrew Wilkins told the court Hotchkiss paced up and down after the blow and made no effort to help Mr Taylor.

When humans first left Africa some 60,000 years ago, they went on to leave their genetic footprints around the world. These same footprints have revealed that some humans decided to return to Africa, carrying genes from the rest of the world back to the continent. Now a new study of southern African genes reveals that a previously unknown migration took western Eurasian DNA back to continent 3,000 years ago. Researchers found signs of Eurasian genes in individuals belonging to a range of Khoisan tribes (pictured) Writing in the New Scientist, Catherine Brahic reports on a study that looked at the DNA of Khoisan tribes of southern Africa. The Khoisan tribes are thought to have lived in near-isolation from the rest of humanity for thousands of years. The study by Harvard University revealed that that some of their genes closely match people from modern-day southern Europe, including Spain and Italy. Dating methods suggest the European DNA made their way into the Khoisan DNA sometime between 900 and 1800 years ago, before known European contact with the region . The recent research confirms a 2012 study by Luca Pagani of the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute which found non-African genes in people living in Ethiopia. They found that the genomes of some Ethiopian populations bear striking similarities to those of populations in Israel and Syria, a potential genetic legacy of the Queen of Sheba and her companions. The team detected mixing between some Ethiopians and non-African populations dating to approximately 3,000 years ago. Researchers have now identified two migrations: One about 3,000 years ago, of non-Africans entering east Africa, and a second one 900–1,800 years ago. ‘These are very special, isolated populations, carrying what are probably the most ancient lineages in human populations today,’ David Reich of Harvard University told New Scientist. Dating methods suggest the European DNA made their way into the Khoisan DNA sometime between 900 and 1800 years ago, before known European contact with the region. Meanwhile, archaeological studies of the region suggest that a subset of the Khoisan, known as the Khoe-Kwadi speakers, arrived in southern Africa from east Africa much earlier. Professor Reich found that the proportion of Eurasian DNA was highest in Khoe-Kwadi tribes, who have up to 14 per cent of western Eurasian ancestry. ‘These populations were always thought to be pristine hunter-gatherers who had not interacted with anyone for millennia,’ added Professor Reich's collaborator, linguist Brigitte Pakendorf. ‘Well, no. Just like the rest of the world, Africa had population movements too. There was simply no writing, no Romans or Greeks to document it.’ It is uncertain why humans first left Africa, but researchers believe it has something to do with major climatic shifts that were happening around that time.

More than 102,000 flights are made every day across the world. To put this into perspective, a web developer has created a beautiful visualisation that simulates each of these flights on a globe. The Flight Stream visualisation doesn't show real-time positions of these flights, but rather routes between major airports - and the result resembles swarms of fireflies. Click the interactive tool below . Flight Stream was created by San Francisco-based web developer Callum Prentice. He used data from the Open Flights database to plot the number and location of flights and airports around the world. The animation has been designed for desktop browsers, but Mr Prentice has also created a video for people on mobiles . Flight Stream was created by San Francisco-based web developer Callum Prentice. He used data from the Open Flights database to plot the number and location of flights and airports around the world, which includes 59,036 routes between 3,209 airports on 531 airlines as of January 2012. The site was created as an 'experiment to map many of the airline flights between world airports,' explained Mr Prentice. Tools on the site let visitors control the opacity of the individual flight tracks, change the size of the airports as well as adjust the speed of the animation. Last year, NATS (formerly known as National Air Traffic Services), produced the third in its series of air traffic visualisations, taking a tour of the UK’s airspace, called UK 24. During the visualisation, around 7,000 flights are shown entering and leaving UK airspace. The day starts with the bow wave of transatlantic traffic heading towards the UK on organised and separated tracks. This is joined by traffic from Europe and the first waves of departures from UK airports. Traffic levels are then seen growing to reveal the main ‘trunk roads’, or routes, of airspace as well as the hubs around London, Manchester and central Scotland. There are also visualisations of military training flights, showing RAF jets performing manoeuvres training off the east coast of England and near to North Wales. It then reveals a ‘spider’s web of helicopter tracks’ originating in Aberdeen, taking people and supplies to North Sea oil and gas rigs. The animation has been designed for desktop browsers, but Mr Prentice has also created a video for people on mobiles to be able to view the animation. Mr Prentice told MailOnline the visualisation was just a hobby, and admitted that there is so much data around major airports, 'it just blurs into a mess', but the visualisation was fun to do and 'looks pretty.' The British-born developer currently works for 3D Virtual World Second Life in California and has released the code for his Flight Stream design, as well as his other interactive projects, on his website.

This is joined by traffic from Europe and the first waves of departures from UK airports. Traffic levels are then seen growing to reveal the main ‘trunk roads’, or routes, of airspace as well as the hubs around London, Manchester and central Scotland. The visualisation then shows holding stacks over London, also known as a holding manoeuvre that is used to delay a flight from landing, but keep it within the airspace. This is particularly key around Heathrow, continued Mr Kelly, which provides ‘the constant flow of traffic that makes it the world’s busiest dual runway airport with 1,350 movements a day.’ At Heathrow alone, goods worth £133 billion were shipped in and out last year, more than the combined value of goods transiting through the UK’s two largest ports, Felixstowe and Southampton. The tour then moves around the UK to include the other major airports, NATS’ two control centres in Swanwick and Prestwick, and general aviation traffic. There are also visualisations of military training flights, showing RAF jets performing training manoeuvres off the east coast of England and near to north Wales. The site was created as an 'experiment to map many of the airline flights between world airports,' explained Mr Prentice.

It then reveals a ‘spider’s web of helicopter tracks’ that originate from Aberdeen, taking people and supplies to and from the North Sea oil and gas rigs. ‘We hope you enjoy this insight into the complexity and beauty of a day of UK air traffic and the value of airspace as the invisible infrastructure that makes it all work,’ added Mr Kelly. To create the video, visualisation experts from a company called 422 South combined 24 hours worth of flight radar data from all UK flights. Computer artists then used specially developed software to convert the longitude, latitude and height data into luminous dots, which were accurately positioned over satellite images of Britain, by day and by night.

(CNN) -- It all started with a simple phone call. But the result, Australian police say, is by far their largest seizure of methamphetamine -- as much as $450 million (438 million Australian dollars) worth of the destructive drug, shipped from southern China and caught in Sydney. Police have arrested three men in the operation -- an Australian, a Singaporean and a Hong Kong citizen -- and say they believe the bust has thrown a major international crime syndicate into disarray. More arrests could follow, they add. The complex operation involved multiple law enforcement agencies and months of monitoring shipments coming into Sydney. But the key to the whole process was a call five months ago from a member of the public in New South Wales to the state's Asian Crime Squad, police said. "That one phone call was the one thread that allowed us to pull and unravel a syndicate that will be stopped forever," New South Wales Police Commissioner Andrew Scipione said at a news conference Thursday. Australian authorities found the drugs in Sydney last week, hidden among bags of chemicals for cleaning products in a container from the southern Chinese trading hub of Shenzhen, according to police. A big haul of 'ice' In total, authorities seized 585 kilograms (more than half a ton) of methamphetamine, also known as ice. That is almost twice as big as their previous record haul of the drug, which took place in July. After confiscating the drugs, police replaced them with an "inert substance," and delivered them to a warehouse in Sydney, said Australian Federal Police Commissioner Tony Negus. Drug lab . According to Negus, the three suspects arrived at the warehouse Wednesday, removed what they thought were the drugs and were then arrested. They have been charged with multiple offenses -- including attempting to possess a commercial quantity of a border-controlled drug -- for which the maximum penalty is life in prison and a fine of 1.275 million Australian dollars. Police say they also found a clandestine drug manufacturing laboratory during the operation. Officials described the bust as an important victory in the fight against the thriving trade of methamphetamine in Australia. "Make no mistake, this is a hideous, insidious drug," Scipione said. "It's the one drug that we know is so popular across Australia that we need to continue to do all we can to take it out of circulation," he added.

By . Meghan Keneally . PUBLISHED: . 17:34 EST, 17 December 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 18:02 EST, 17 December 2013 . A former contracting colleague of Edward Snowden's has spoken out in an effort to fight back against the way that he is being depicted by government officials. A coworker has revealed that despite the picture that has been painted of Snowden- which casts him as a man who stole colleagues passwords and hid his feelings about the controversial surveillance tactics used by the NSA to collect citizens phone records- the reason why he was given so much access is clear. 'That kid was a genius among geniuses,' the unidentified colleague told Forbes. Not all bad: One of Edward Snowden's former NSA colleagues spoke out about how the hacker was granted access because of his unparalleled skill . 'NSA is full of smart people but anybody who sat in a meeting with Ed will tell you he was in a class of his own... I've never seen anything like it.' Forbes is not revealing the source's name or gender, only saying that the individual felt compelled to come forward in order to defend Snowden against the claims that he was a traitor. 'I won't call him a hero, but he's sure as hell no traitor,' the source said. 'I was shocked and betrayed when I first learned the news, but as more time passes I'm inclined to believe he really is trying to do the right thing and it's not out of character for him. I don't agree with his methods, but I understand why he did it.' Looking back at Snowden's behavior before the leak should have raised some red flags for his supervisors. The clearest indication of his possible ulterior motives was the fact that he sometimes wore a hoodie sweatshirt that had a parody NSA sweatshirt that showed AT&T cables and eavesdropping headphones instead of the standard seal of the agency. He also kept a copy of the Constitution at his desk and regularly used it during debates with his bosses about practices that he thought were illegal. Ironic fashion statement: Snowden apparently wore a sweatshirt just like this one to work at the NSA and his colleagues thought it was just a funny fashion choice rather than a warning sign . The source told Forbes that because Snowden was such a skilled consultant, his superiors gave him full administrative clearance without running him through the proper background channels because they wanted to make use of his talents. 'Big mistake in hindsight,' the source told the news site. 'But if you have a guy who could do things nobody else could do, and the only problem was that his badge was green instead of blue, what would you do?' Before making his controversial move, Snowden allegedly tried to help the NSA in beefing up their security protocols, reporting glitches that were apparently never fixed. The source also revealed that one of Snowden's bosses, whose name has not been released, gave Snowden his password while he was on vacation. NSA investigators have not found that account to have been misused during that time by Snowden. His supporters: Journalist Glenn Greenwald (left) and his partner David Miranda (right) are trying to help him secure asylum in any number of South American countries, including Miranda's home country of Brazil . He was also offered a higher position on a more prestigious team- called Tailored Access Operations- and Snowden declined in favor of a consulting position at Booz Allen. The move also kept Snowden from becoming a fully-fledged government employee which would theoretically increase the number of criminal charges he could be prosecuted with post-leak. The source's stories, while not taking the blame away from Snowden, certainly paints him in a better light than other recent interviews by former CIA director Michael Morell told 60 Minutes. ‘I do not believe he is a whistle blower,’ Mr Morell told the CBS interviewer on Sunday. ‘I do not believe he is a hero, I believe he has betrayed his country.’ Snowden's case got a boost from a District Court judge who placed a temporary injunction against the government from making unlawful searches and seizures of two specific citizens. The ruling was seen as a major victory for Snowden and his advocates as it is expected to be brought to the Supreme Court. Today, Snowden penned an open letter to the people of Brazil- whose president has publicly condemned the U.S. for their surveillance tactics- offering to help them prevent further spying. He claimed the letter was not a plea for asylum, but many viewed it that way since his permission to stay in Russia will expire after one year. | His former colleague tells how Snowden wore a hacker sweatshirt to the NSA offices in Hawaii and kept a Constitution on his desk .
The hacker is remembered as really talented consultant who was quickly moved up the food chain because they wanted to use his skills .
He regularly reported security breaches to his superiors that went unfixed .

By . Ben Spencer . PUBLISHED: . 06:31 EST, 5 March 2014 . | . UPDATED: . 21:03 EST, 5 March 2014 . This stunning frosty dawn may be nature’s final curtain to the dismal winter endured across the country. But the beautiful red skies that greeted early birds in Wiltshire yesterday also heralded weather to put a spring in your step – with temperatures set to soar to 18C (64F) in the next few days. For the first time this year it will be ice cream weather, as parts of Britain will be warmer than Greece.A high pressure system dragging in winds from the southwest means the mercury may climb to double the average March temperature of 9C (48F). Chilly start: Some areas, including Malmesbury in Wiltshire, were covered in frost this morning, but the mercury is set to rise as the week goes on . Blossom: A squirrel picks a flower in London's Hyde Park where spring flowers are beginning to come through . The squirrel nibbles at a flower bud like it is a nut as the sunny spells descend on the capital, marking the start of a warm March . Family: A Mother and her daughter play in the grass. The weather is expected to remained settled for the next 24 hours before the temperature rises on Friday . Still: Crowds walking around the gardens of Sheffield Park in East Sussex enjoy the uncharacteristically warm weather . Forecasts for Sunday put Athens at 10C (50F), Ibiza at 16C (61F) and Istanbul at 7C (45F). The Met Office said: ‘Warmer, drier weather is on the way for parts of the country. ‘In . the South high pressure will dominate, bringing dry weather for the . weekend, with the best of the weather in the South East.’ Northwest England and Scotland, however, will be cloudy with patchy showers. Clear: People flock to Brighton Beach in Sussex and set up deckchairs to lie back and enjoy the blue skies . A crowd builds up along the promenade as the sun comes out . Some had to wear sunglasses to shield their . eyes from the rays while one man opted to sleep . Pier: A mother holds her child as they relax on the pebbled beach of Weston Super Mare. The conditions on the Somerset coast are a stark contrast to the gale-force winds and rain experienced in previous months . View: As the week progresses, the deck chairs are likely to fill up as the sunshine becomes permanent . Sandcastle: Two-year-old Faith Bristow makes full use of her bucket and spade for the first time this year on Bournemouth beach . 'I need more sand': Ashleigh Cole, three, travelled with her family from Portsmouth to Bournemouth to enjoy the seaside . Fetching building material: Faith Topping, three, fills a bag up with sand ready to build a sand castle on the Dorset beach . Clear skies: People line the promenade in Brighton with deckchairs while a lawnmower basks in the sunshine outside the Houses of Parliament . Spring officially starts on March 20, but there are already abundant signs that winter is over. Daffodils and crocuses are in full bloom and spring blossom is on trees across the country. Temperatures . reached 12C (54F) in Bournemouth, Dorset, yesterday, where people took . advantage of clear skies to head to the seafront. The seven-mile . promenade was busy with people enjoying the warm weather. John . Lee, forecaster with MeteoGroup, said: ‘The weather will be getting . much better into the weekend. The south of England will be somewhat . drier than we’ve had recently. ‘High pressure is expected to dominate through the start of next week, with sunshine around and light winds.’ Forage: A squirrel perches in between newly blossomed daffodils in St James' Park, Central London . It ventures out onto the grass to enjoy the sunshine as the capital basks in early spring sunshine . Snap: A photographer takes a picture of her friend as they crouch among the spring flowers in St James' Park, London . Stop and look: Three people admire the lake in the middle of Sheffield Park in East Sussex and look at the tree which is beginning to retain some of its leaves . A woman stands above a waterfall in the East Sussex park. Parts of the South will experience higher than average temperatures for March over the weekend with betting companies suggesting Sunday could be the hottest day of the year so far . After . the wettest winter in 250 years, flood water levels that have . devastated large parts of the country are gradually easing, the . Environment Agency said last night. A . severe flood warning for part of the Somerset Levels, in place since . February 5, was downgraded by the agency yesterday after flood waters in . the area dropped. Just one severe flood warning remains in place, near Burrowbridge in Somerset. A huge pumping operation continues, but drier weather means flood levels are expected to fall even further over the week. Improvement: The Met Office has predicted the weather will be exceptionally mild for this time of year as the storms look set to be swept aside . Small . businesses are being blacklisted by insurance companies because they . are not covered by the Government’s agreement with the industry to help . flood-prone areas. The . Federation of Small Businesses (FSB) said its members are being hit by . ‘outrageous’ quotes for renewal of insurance policies – with some being . turned away. The FSB is . calling on the Government and the insurance industry to ‘look again’ at . the exclusion of small firms from the Flood Re agreement, which only . covers domestic insurance.

(CNN) -- World hot dog eating record holders Joey "Jaws" Chestnut and Sonya "The Black Widow" Thomas engaged in a pre-meet stare down Friday as they weighed in for the annual Nathan's July Fourth hot dog eating contest. But for the first time, Chestnut -- who two years ago ate 68 hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes -- and Thomas -- the top female eater, with 41 hot dogs and buns -- will not compete directly at Coney Island. In a move to increase the contest's fame, Nathan's is sponsoring separate male and female competitions, in effect setting the plate for Thomas, a Burger King manager who reigns supreme among female hot dog eaters, to finally capture her own championship belt. It is pink, unlike the men's mustard yellow belt, to promote Pepto Bismol, another event sponsor. Male and female contestants will vie for equal purses of $20,000. The annual display of conspicuous consumption is a marketing marvel that captivates the media and has propelled Nathan's Famous to seven consecutive years of higher revenues and profits. During its most recent fiscal year, Nathan's sold about 453 million hot dogs, a 93% increase during the seven-year span, giving it bragging rights as the No. 1 selling beef hot dog at retail outlets across the United States. The company, which is public, has seen its shares rise three-fold during the same period. "This is one of the greatest marketing stunts ever, ever put forth in the United States," proclaimed Wayne Norbitz, president and chief operating officer of Nathan's Famous. "It's been a great marketing strategy for us." So great the July Fourth hot dog eating contest and more than a dozen qualifying matches around North America comprise the majority of Nathan's Famous marketing budget. The company airs no television commercials. The hot dog eating contest is a natural for Nathan's, which first opened by the fun-filled amusement park 96 years ago. In the late 1970s the contest was just another Coney Island sideshow, thought up by PR stunt man Max Rosey. Norbitz, a young Nathan's employee in 1977, remembers creating the competition with Rosey in front of the Coney Island restaurant. "We waited for a couple of fat guys to walk by. We asked if they wanted to eat hot dogs in a contest. They said yes. We ran a quick little contest and the whole object was to get a photo in the New York Post," recalled Norbitz. Rosey's protégé, George Shea, his brother Richard Shea and partner David Baer are the marketing mavens who have brought competitive eating -- or gastric-centered sports, as they like to call it -- into the modern era. The marketers introduced the coveted mustard yellow championship belt, arranged for ESPN to telecast the competition live, built up the rivalry between former champion Takeru Kobayashi and current champ Joey Chestnut, and have promoted the "eaters" as professional athletes. "It's absolutely a sport and it has the attendance of a sport, and these guys are athletes for sure," claimed Richard Shea. Practicing what they preach, the Sheas have packaged Nathan's hot dog eating competitions, as well as other disciplines including oysters, hamburgers, cheese steak, baby back ribs, buffalo wings, gyros, jalapenos, asparagus, meatballs, sweet corn, catfish and corned beef into a league: Major League Eating. "The MLE circuit goes on all year and hits all kinds of towns, markets and various foreign shores," said Richard Shea, who said he believes his marketing technique breaks through the clutter of traditional advertising and public relations. "There's so many things you can make competitive, compelling, and then use those as a platform for all these brands looking for eyeballs." This year's lead stunt for the Sheas is an effort to create a rivalry between the United States and China by bringing Chinese eaters to Coney Island for the July Fourth contest, just when Nathan's happens to be embarking on a major expansion in China. The company recently concluded a deal with a franchisee who plans to open 80 Nathan's Famous outlets in China. "They represent a potential threat to our possession of the mustard belt," warned George Shea. "China is expanding and rising as a political and global power, economic and otherwise. If they take the belt it's going to hit us right where we breathe. They are going to be eating our lunch, literally." Champion Joey Chestnut appeared to take Shea's claim seriously. At Friday's weigh-in he confronted one of the Chinese eaters, asking, "How many are you going to eat?" "I hope 20," came the response. A clearly relieved Chestnut then offered sportsmanlike encouragement, "Next year you'll eat more." The record holder then confessed he could use some tough competition. "If someone's not pushing me it's hard," he said. It appears unlikely Chestnut will have that motivation at the big table in Coney Island. While the Nathan's competition is under way in Brooklyn, Chestnut's chief nemesis Kobayashi plans to stage his own hot dog eating performance at a bar in Manhattan. He was banned from the Nathan's event last year after a contract dispute and then arrested after trying to jump onto the Coney Island stage, generating even more publicity for the eating contest and for Nathan's Famous. | Annual July Fourth eating contest increases sales for Nathan's Famous .

By . Claire Bates . PUBLISHED: . 08:28 EST, 8 February 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 11:54 EST, 8 February 2013 . A toddler's mother was overjoyed today after her son was given the all-clear from four tumours despite doctors first suggesting he just had constipation. Sophie Maloney refused to accept the initial diagnosis on her son Oliver and a local GP said that the lump in his tummy could be to do with his bladder. An MRI scan revealed he had a large tumour on his prostate, rib, and others on his spine and left thigh. Scroll down for video . In remission: Oliver with his mother Sophie Maloney at home in Nottingham. He was treated with the colon cancer drug Avastin . He was accepted on an international drugs trial of Avastin and has now been given the all clear, after the tumours disappeared. Avastin is more commonly used to treat bowel cancer and breast cancer that has spread to other sites in the body. When his parents Sophie and Simon Lee, 37, first took Oliver to hospital with stomach pain in November 2011, doctors thought he had constipation. But Ms Maloney from Nottingham told doctors at the Queen's Medical Centre she was sure it was something more serious. Doctors then found the tumours which were diagnosed as rhabdomyosarcoma, a type of soft tissue sarcoma - a cancer that starts in muscles. There are only around 60 cases of this type of tumour in the UK each year. Ollie, pictured in hospital in December 2011 (l) and August 2012 (r) went through nine cycles of chemotherapy . Team Ollie: Sophie and Simon raised money for the Queen's Medical Centre where Oliver was being treated . Sophie, 38, said: 'Our whole world fell apart, I can still remember the consultant telling us the news. It was awful. 'I thought our world had ended - my legs gave way with shock. It was a bit of a lottery whether he would get accepted on to the drug trial. 'We knew there was not a lot known about this drug, but we thought it was worth a shot. 'We were really pleased that he got on it, we wanted to give him the best chance possible.' Ollie went through nine cycles of intensive chemotherapy and the new cancer drug eradicated most the tumours in his body and reduced the one on his prostate down to 1cm. Further focused radiotherapy saw that cancer disappear as well. His consultant Professor David Walker said: 'The results of the drug are yet to be collated, but Oliver was able to reap the benefits of being part of that research. 'The Government invested heavily into research so that cancer sufferers have the best opportunity to have the best cancer drugs available.'

By . Emma Innes . PUBLISHED: . 03:42 EST, 9 July 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 03:49 EST, 9 July 2013 . Dr Chai Patel (pictured) says terminally ill and elderly people should be given the chance to decide where and how they die . Terminally ill and elderly people should be given the chance to decide where and how they die, a leading care home boss has said. Dr Chai Patel, who runs 230 UK care homes, says that while people are currently being given more and more choice about how they live their lives, they are still offered too little choice about how they die. He believes too many people currently die in ‘completely impersonal surroundings’. In his speech to the National Care Homes Congress today he will say that people should be given the opportunity to draw up a ‘living will’. This would allow them to specify exactly how, where, and when, they want to die. The Daily Telegraph reports that Dr Patel believes the introduction of ‘living wills’ could eventually lead to the establishment of euthanasia clinics in the UK. Dr Patel, who used to head up the Priory Clinics but is now head of HC-One, told the paper that too many elderly people are currently dying on hospital wards rather than in the comfort of their own homes because they are vulnerable to official processes. He said: ‘When you look at severe, chronic conditions like dementia, Parkinson’s disease, motor neurone disease, where the progressive nature of it is going to be so dreadful and everyone knows what the natural progression is, then why can’t we make a grown-up decision about how we want to go? ‘In the past 100 years we have found so many ways to live and we live well, but actually we die really badly.’ Dr Patel’s comments come at a time when the number of people in England over the age of 90 is predicted to increase by 146 per cent over the next 20 years. His views have been supported by the charity Sue Ryder which provides end of life care to terminally ill people. In a new report, the charity argues that people approaching the end of their lives should not have to face the ‘unacceptable trade-off’ of choosing whether to die at home without pain medication or in hospital where they can access the drugs. Dr Patel believes too many people currently die in 'completely impersonal surroundings' in hospital wards . More than three fifths of people polled by the charity and think tank Demos said they wanted to die at home and 78 per cent said pain relief was a top priority for them. But only 27 per cent of the 2,000 people across the UK who were questioned felt that home was a place where they could be pain-free during their final days. Paul Woodward, chief executive of Sue Ryder, said: ‘We are concerned that government and decision-makers are using “dying at home” as a proxy for quality. This is not good enough. Dying at home does not always guarantee a good death. ‘We need to start talking about how people want to die, not just where. Without a clear understanding of what people really want when it comes to care at the end of their lives, we can’t determine whether or not existing support meets their needs. ‘Everyone deserves a pain-free death, in the place of their choosing and to be surrounded by loved ones.’ | Dr Chai Patel says elderly and terminally ill people are given too little say over circumstances of their death .

Gareth Bale believes more British players should play abroad at some stage in their career. The 25-year-old winger left the comfort of the Barclays Premier League last summer when he joined Real Madrid from Tottenham for a world-record £85million transfer fee. Bale's decision to swap the Premier League for La Liga was justified when he helped Real win the Champions League at the end of his first season in Spain. VIDEO Scroll down to watch Gareth Bale loses out in game of one-touch headers . Garteh Bale said he has loved life in Spain and feels it was important to challenge himself . Few British footballers ply their trade abroad but Bale insists that more should do so. 'I think the most important thing is you feel it's the right move,' he told The Independent ahead of Saturday evening's Madrid derby at the Bernabeu. 'If you feel you're going to play, then I would encourage a British player to go abroad. 'I've enjoyed every minute of it, the new culture, the new life. I felt like I wanted to challenge myself.

'I definitely feel I can keep improving every season, improve my game in training every day,' Bale said. 'We're expected to try to win every trophy. We want to win every trophy. We'll give our best.'

Rik Mayall's children gathered today for the unveiling of a bench in their actor father's name similar to the one he sat on while starring in the hit sitcom Bottom. Bonnie, Sidney and Rosie Mayall joined fans of the BBC Two comedy near Hammersmith Bridge Road in Hammersmith, west London, where part of the show's opening credits were filmed. Mr Mayall, who died in June, co-wrote and starred in the programme among other hit comedies between 1991 and 1995. Fans gathered outside Hammersmith Broadway in west London where a bench in the actor's memory has been unveiled following a public petition which gathered 7,000 signatures . The actor's three children, Bonnie (left), Sidney (centre) and Rosie Mayall (right) joined crowds for the event . The show's opening credits saw Mr Mayall and co-star Adrian Edmonson, who played Edward 'Eddie' Elizabeth Hitlersitting, sitting on the bench, bickering and fighting as streams of people walk past. In 2010, the 56-year-old said spoke of his sadness that the bench, which sat on a traffic island at the bottom of King Street, had been replaced with a pelican crossing. Following his death in June thousands of fans signed an online petition asking for it to be reinstated, or for a similar one to be built in his memory. Today a new bench was unveiled at the junction of Queen Caroline Street and Hammersmith Bridge Road. It bears a plaque reading: 'In Memory of The Man, The Myth, The Legend. 'Dr The Rik Mayal. Pan Global Phenomenon. Equality, Opportunity, Wisdom, Freedom & Love. 'Barbara: Love Is The Answer,' in reference to his beloved wife, Barbara Robbin. Friends, fans and co-stars of the actor gathered at the site today for its official unveiling where his children watched fondly chatted with crowds. Following their father's death in June, the siblings issued a heartfelt statement on social media, paying tribute to their 'wonderful, foul-mouthed father'. An online petition gathered 7,000 signatures calling on Hammersmith and Fulham Council to rebuild a bench in Mr Mayall's memory following his sudden death in June . The bench was immortalised by Mayall and his co-star Adrian Edmonson in the BBC Two comedy (pictured) Fans Mark Adams and Lawrence Harman pose on the memorial bench in Hammersmith, west London today . The pair recreated a scene from Bottom's opening credits in which Mr Mayall, who played Richard 'Richie' Richard, and his co-star Adrian Edmonson bicker and fight on the bench . The scene was made famous in the programme's opening credits. Bottom ran on BBC Two for four years . Mr Mayall, who also starred in hit comedies The Young Ones and Blackadder, died suddenly at the age of 56 . Fans recreated scenes from the popular Nineties show (left) as Mr Myall's children, including daughter Rosie (right), watched on fondly . Posters and letters were left on railings near the site in west London where fans gathered to pay respects . A solemn supporter offers a balloon for the late actor who was described as a 'great comic' by the council . Nigel Planer, who starred alongisde Mr Myall in The Young Ones, delivered a reading, while crowds sang the programme's theme tunes. The petition, which gathered more than 7,000 signatures,urged the council: 'Rik changed the face of comedy in the UK, he had a huge impact on thousands of people throughout the UK and around the globe. 'We, the fans and friends, feel that we need a place where we can remember him and placing a memorial bench at this location is something we feel he would have loved.' Hammersmith and Fulham councillor Wesley Harcourt said the council was "proud of Rik Mayall's links to our borough". He said: 'Bottom was set here, with the opening credits filmed on a bench in Hammersmith Broadway. 'That bench was later moved, so it seems right to put a new bench near the spot in memory of a great comic actor.' Mayall shot to fame for his role in the hit comedy The Young Ones in which he played a pretentious, poetry-writing student (far right) Rik Mayall played cunning Conservative politician Alan B'stard in the sitcom The New Statesman (left) as well as appearing alongside close friend and co-star Adrian Edmonson in Bottom (right) In 2010, Mr Mayall was asked in a BBC interview what the worst journey he had ever made across London was. 'Hammersmith is my stomping ground I suppose. And one of the great opening credit sequences was for the telly show Bottom, where you had Richie and Eddie - me and Ade - sitting on a bench,' he said. 'If you were to come to the end of King Street where it meets the big roundabout to get to the Hammersmith Apollo, you'd find that same bench on a traffic island - until one day they took it away and put a pelican crossing in its place. 'That for me is the worst journey I ever made, discovering what had happened to that bench.' Earlier this year the actor's former co-star Adrian Edmonson said he was struggling to cope with his friend's death. Mr Mayall died of an 'acute cardiac arrest' after a morning run with his wife, Barbara, it was reported. Rik Mayall shot to fame as the obnoxious, poetry-writing anarchist Rick in The Young Ones alongside his friend Adrian Edmondson before the duo later went on to star in their sitcom Bottom. The pair – known as The Dangerous Brothers because of their propensity for hitting each other over the head – found fame after meeting at Manchester University. Considered one of Britain's comedy greats, Mayall memorably played conniving Conservative politician Alan B'stard in the sitcom The New Statesman and swashbuckling Lord Flashheart in Blackadder. He and Edmondson also created and starred 'Bottom,' a surreally violent slapstick series about two unemployed slobs . He also featured on the big screen 1991 fantasy Drop Dead Fred - which gained him a U.S. cult following - and 1999 British comedy Guest House Paradiso. In 1998 the actor had a serious accident on a motorbike the day before Good Friday, which left him with a fractured skull and bleeding In his brain. In a Daily Mail interview years later, he joked: 'As I was technically dead for five days, I beat our Lord Jesus 5-3.' Following his death this year comedy giants and friends paid tribute to the 'extraordinary' actor he was. His children issued a heartfelt statement to their father, describing him as a 'wonderful, generous, foul-mouthed and hysterical father'. | Actor Rik Mayall died suddenly in June at the age of 56 at London home .

By . Emily Crane . A man accused of murdering five members of his wife's family allegedly planned to have a dead man's DNA stolen from a funeral home and planted on the murder weapon in what he referred to as his 'Plan B'. Lian Bin 'Robert' Xie, who stands accused of murdering the Lin family, had various conversations with a fellow inmate about the killings and allegedly revealed he had bought the hammer used in the attack from a 'two-dollar shop' because he knew the store's security cameras were fake. The Crown told the court that the inmate, known as 'Witness A', had spoken of the plot, saying Xie had hoped to use a corrupt police officer - a friend of Witness A - to carry out the plan, but who was actually an undercover detective. Mr Xie has pleaded not guilty to murdering his brother-in-law Min 'Norman' Lin, 45, Mr Lin's wife, Yun 'Lily' Li Lin, 44, and their sons Henry, 12, and Terry, 9, in their Sydney home in July 2009. Lian Bin 'Robert' Xie, pictured outside court on Friday, is accused of murdering five members of his wife's family in their Sydney home in July 2009 . July 18, 2009: Min 'Norman' Lin, his wife, Yun 'Lily' Li Lin, his sister, Yun Bin 'Irene' Yin, and their two sons Henry, 12, and Terry, 9, were found bludgeoned to death in their North Epping home . The Lin's teenage daughter, Brenda, 15, was overseas on a school excursion. She was the only family member to survive . May 5, 2011: Police arrest Robert Xie at his North Epping home and charge him with five counts of murder . He and his wife Kathy Lin had been taking care of Brenda after her parents were killed . December 19, 2012: Robert Xie is committed to stand trial in the NSW Supreme Court . February 1, 2013: He pleads not guilty in the Supreme Court to five counts of murder . May 9, 2014: Murder trial begins in Sydney with Crown Prosecutor Mark Tedeschi's opening address . The 50-year-old is also alleged to have killed Lily's 39-year-old sister, Yun Bin 'Irene' Yin. Mr Xie's inmate, who gained his trust when they were in neighbouring cells in Long Bay prison, has said the accused was convinced Lily had had an affair with a man named Rob, and claimed Mr Xie said he'd seen a mobile phone and the victim's diary, both of which proved her 'willingness to leave her family', reports The Daily Telegraph . In the opening address of Mr Xie's murder trial on Monday, Crown Prosecutor Mark Tedeschi said the inmate had 21 conversations with Mr Xie over an 18-month span from July 2011. 'He had a number of conversations about the hammer in which it was implicit that he knew where it was disposed of or hidden and that it could be obtained by someone on the outside,' Mr Tedeschi told the court. Mr Xie is also alleged to have told the inmate that he had martial arts training and 'demonstrated on Witness A a pressure point in the neck which meant he could easily incapacitate his victims.' The court heard that the Lin family were killed by both blunt force trauma and asphyxiation in the bedrooms of their North Epping home on July 18, 2009. The inmate reported his conversations to police and will receive a reduced prison sentence for testifying against Mr Xie. The court was also told a smear of blood found in Mr Xie's garage had been proven to belong to Terry Lin with such certainty that there was only a 'one in 50 quadrillion chance' of it belonging to another person.

Pippa Mann can remember exactly what passed through her mind when her racing car somersaulted into the air at almost 200mph in Las Vegas. In the split-second before landing, recalling what she had been taught about surviving crashes, she took her hands off the steering wheel, closed her eyes and forced her body to relax. Even by the high-risk standards of racing, it was a horrifying accident – a 15-car chain collision last October that caused the death of Pippa’s closest friend in racing, Briton Dan Wheldon. Pippa, Britain’s most successful female driver, was in one of those 15 cars and suffered catastrophic injuries when she was enveloped in the ensuing fireball. Survivor: A year after the crash and Pippa Mann is recovering . The accident could easily have taken the life of the pretty 29-year-old, whose car was sent hurtling into the air, caught fire and landed upside down. But it is not in her nature to dwell on what might have been. The first British woman to qualify for the world-famous IndyCar racing series – the American rival to Formula 1 – Pippa is used to putting emotion to one side and assessing every situation coolly. A year after the crash, she is recovering and resuming her racing career, as well as looking forward to her wedding in December. But the death of Wheldon affected her deeply. ‘Dan was a team-mate and a great guy,’ she says. ‘Losing a friend was a big shock and it was very difficult to deal with, something separate from my crash strangely enough. Dan will be missed. His death affected everyone.’ Still, the tragedy has not diverted Pippa from her passion. ‘You couldn’t do it if you were scared of crashing. It’s racing and you are going to come together with other cars, and sometimes it’s going to go wrong. It’s a part of it,’ she says. She vividly remembers every detail of the crash on the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Her remarkable reactions were those of someone who lives with danger on a daily basis. ‘I pulled my hands off the steering wheel because otherwise at that speed you will break your arms, and I thrust them back to my belts on my chest. Fatal: The crash that killed Mann's best friend Dan Wheldon . ‘Although the hand was covered with a fire-proof glove, the fireball that came into the car while I was upside down had a blow-torch effect on one small area of my right hand. After the car stopped, I could not open my eyes because they were closed by the debris that had come in while I was upside down, and I could not undo the belt because of the pain in my hands. I just waited for the medical team.’ The burns to her little finger were so severe that most of the soft tissue was dead and surgeons were forced to cut away the flesh before they could begin the task of rebuilding her hand. In the space of just over a week, Pippa had three operations. At that stage, she had little idea of the extent of her injuries. ‘It didn’t sink in until I came out of the third surgery,’ she says. ‘I was in so much pain that they put me on horse tranquillisers.’ That final bout involved removing a tendon from her right forearm, blood vessels and skin from close to her right elbow, and a nerve from the ring finger on her right hand. Pippa says: ‘You get used to injuries. I have had a broken hand before – you have surgery, then therapy and three weeks later you are back in the car. It hurts, but is no big deal. It goes with the territory. 'But with this injury, I could barely move my hand. I never doubted my future, though.’ From the moment she stepped into a racing kart aged 12, Pippa – who is only 5ft 5in – has broken through both gender and pain barriers to pursue her career. Taken as a child to watch a Formula 1 race at Silverstone by her father Clive, she was bitten by the racing bug and by the age of 14 was taking part in national karting championships. However, Pippa found that her arrival was not welcomed by all of her fellow – male – competitors. ‘I realised that the bumpers on karts were not just there for safety,’ she laughs. ‘They were also used by my competitors to let me know they were there and what they thought about me racing. Tragic: Dan Wheldon is pictured here holding son Sebastian alongside wife Susie holding Oliver, with the Borg Warner Trophy . ‘I returned the favour and so created space around me. I had to develop a thicker skin. It is not the size of the person in the fight that matters, but the size of the fight in the person.’ A lone female in her age group, Pippa learned swiftly that a minority of male drivers would never afford her the respect she warranted. ‘Any female racing driver will tell you if you drive hard, fair and well you will get respect from 95 per cent of your competitors but there will always be those exceptions. ‘You think, “Oh dear, here we go again.” These drivers will put you into the pit wall, so you just have to drive faster than them so that they cannot catch you.’ Pippa left Britain for Italy at 17 to pursue a career in professional karting. After three years, she returned to Britain to switch to racing cars before moving to the United States in 2009. A year later, she became the first woman to take pole position in a race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway and won her first race in Kentucky. Last year, Pippa stepped up to the higher-ranked IndyCar Series and took part in the prestigious 2011 Indianapolis 500, which was won by Wheldon. The accident that claimed his life occurred five months later during the Las Vegas Indy 300.Pippa blames advances in technology for the crash because it encourages teams, drivers and officials to overlook the dangers of driving too fast, too close. She says: ‘It was not because someone did something stupid but because circumstances came together and fate decided to remind us that racing is dangerous.’ Recovering has been a slow process. When Pippa first returned to the gym after Christmas, she says her forearm was ‘deathly weak’. It took until the summer to build the strength back up. During her long recovery she also discovered that her funding had dried up. To stay involved in racing, she started hosting racing tours, mentoring aspiring female drivers and doing some radio commentary on races. But last month Pippa was back in the driving seat for the first time since the accident when she was given a ride in the Auto GP World Series. Nobody would blame her for being scared but she insists: ‘There was no anxiety. That was the longest break I have had from driving and it was driving me potty. ‘The hand is not a problem at all – it just does not look pretty. It functions, but no one will be asking me to do hand-modelling in the future.’ Pippa is also busy planning her wedding to her fiance, American race engineer Robert Gue. The pair met in 2009 at a racing function and are marrying in Indianapolis, where they live, in December. ‘I had to break my own rule, which was never to go out with someone from the racing paddock. ‘Every female racing driver will tell you that the paddock is like high school – nobody has got anything better to do than talk about whom they are dating. ‘If you want to be taken seriously you try to steer clear of all that stuff as much as you can. Dating someone in racing will probably see you lose a bit of respect.’ Despite her protestations, she is immensely grateful to Robert for his support over the past year. ‘Having a stable relationship has helped me come through what has been a really difficult time,’ she admits. Pippa is determined to get back into IndyCar racing, but for now Formula 1 is off the agenda, not least because she believes the barriers for female racing drivers remain higher in Europe than in the US. She says: ‘In IndyCar, there have been successful female drivers and that paves the way for others. I am starting to see it change in Europe. It looks like it is a little bit better for female drivers, but there’s still a long way to go.’ And Pippa remains philosophical about the risks. ‘Motor racing is dangerous and things can go wrong. But it’s the same as life – you can get knocked down stepping into the street.’ | Pippa Mann, the first woman to qualify for the world-famous IndyCar racing series, suffered catastrophic injuries .

"world-famous IndyCar racing series – the American",
"rival to Formula 1 – Pippa is used to putting",
"emotion to one side and assessing every situation",
"coolly. A year after the crash, she is recovering",
"and resuming her racing career, as well as",
"looking forward to her wedding in December. But",
"the death of Wheldon affected her deeply. ‘Dan",
"was a team-mate and a great guy,’ she says.",
"‘Losing a friend was a big shock and it was very",
"difficult to deal with, something separate from",
"my crash strangely enough. Dan will be missed.",
"His death affected everyone.’ Still, the tragedy",
"has not diverted Pippa from her passion. ‘You",
"couldn’t do it if you were scared of crashing.",
"It’s racing and you are going to come together",
"with other cars, and sometimes it’s going to go",
"wrong. It’s a part of it,’ she says. She vividly",
"remembers every detail of the crash on the Las",
"Vegas Motor Speedway. Her remarkable reactions",
"were those of someone who lives with danger on a",
"daily basis. ‘I pulled my hands off the steering",
"wheel because otherwise at that speed you will",
"break your arms, and I thrust them back to my",
"belts on my chest. Fatal: The crash that killed",
"Mann's best friend Dan Wheldon . ‘Although the",
"hand was covered with a fire-proof glove, the",
"fireball that came into the car while I was",
"upside down had a blow-torch effect on one small",
"area of my right hand. After the car stopped, I",
"could not open my eyes because they were closed",
"by the debris that had come in while I was upside",
"down, and I could not undo the belt because of",
"the pain in my hands. I just waited for the",
"medical team.’ The burns to her little finger",
"were so severe that most of the soft tissue was",
"dead and surgeons were forced to cut away the",
"flesh before they could begin the task of",
"rebuilding her hand. In the space of just over a",
"week, Pippa had three operations. At that stage,",
"she had little idea of the extent of her",
"injuries. ‘It didn’t sink in until I came out of",
"the third surgery,’ she says. ‘I was in so much",
"pain that they put me on horse tranquillisers.’",
"That final bout involved removing a tendon from",
"her right forearm, blood vessels and skin from",
"close to her right elbow, and a nerve from the",
"ring finger on her right hand. Pippa says: ‘You",
"get used to injuries. I have had a broken hand",
"before – you have surgery, then therapy and three",
"weeks later you are back in the car. It hurts,",
"but is no big deal. It goes with the territory.",
"'But with this injury, I could barely move my",
"hand. I never doubted my future, though.’ From",
"the moment she stepped into a racing kart aged",
"12, Pippa – who is only 5ft 5in – has broken",
"through both gender and pain barriers to pursue",
"her career. Taken as a child to watch a Formula 1",
"race at Silverstone by her father Clive, she was",
"bitten by the racing bug and by the age of 14 was",
"taking part in national karting championships.",
"However, Pippa found that her arrival was not",
"welcomed by all of her fellow – male –",
"competitors. ‘I realised that the bumpers on",
"karts were not just there for safety,’ she",
"laughs. ‘They were also used by my competitors to",
"let me know they were there and what they thought",
"about me racing. Tragic: Dan Wheldon is pictured",
"here holding son Sebastian alongside wife Susie",
"holding Oliver, with the Borg Warner Trophy . ‘I",
"returned the favour and so created space around",
"me. I had to develop a thicker skin. It is not",
"the size of the person in the fight that matters,",
"but the size of the fight in the person.’ A lone",
"female in her age group, Pippa learned swiftly",
"that a minority of male drivers would never",
"afford her the respect she warranted. ‘Any female",
"racing driver will tell you if you drive hard,",
"fair and well you will get respect from 95 per",
"cent of your competitors but there will always be",
"those exceptions. ‘You think, “Oh dear, here we",
"go again.” These drivers will put you into the",
"pit wall, so you just have to drive faster than",
"them so that they cannot catch you.’ Pippa left",
"Britain for Italy at 17 to pursue a career in",
"professional karting. After three years, she",
"returned to Britain to switch to racing cars",
"before moving to the United States in 2009. A",
"year later, she became the first woman to take",
"pole position in a race at Indianapolis Motor",
"Speedway and won her first race in Kentucky. Last",
"year, Pippa stepped up to the higher-ranked",
"IndyCar Series and took part in the prestigious",
"2011 Indianapolis 500, which was won by Wheldon.",
"The accident that claimed his life occurred five",
"months later during the Las Vegas Indy 300.Pippa",
"blames advances in technology for the crash",
"because it encourages teams, drivers and",
"officials to overlook the dangers of driving too",
"fast, too close. She says: ‘It was not because",
"someone did something stupid but because",
"circumstances came together and fate decided to",
"remind us that racing is dangerous.’ Recovering",
"has been a slow process. When Pippa first",
"returned to the gym after Christmas, she says her",
"forearm was ‘deathly weak’. It took until the",
"summer to build the strength back up. During her",
"long recovery she also discovered that her",
"funding had dried up. To stay involved in racing,",
"she started hosting racing tours, mentoring",
"aspiring female drivers and doing some radio",
"commentary on races. But last month Pippa was",
"back in the driving seat for the first time since",
"the accident when she was given a ride in the",
"Auto GP World Series. Nobody would blame her for",
"being scared but she insists: ‘There was no",
"anxiety. That was the longest break I have had",
"from driving and it was driving me potty. ‘The",
"hand is not a problem at all – it just does not",
"look pretty. It functions, but no one will be",
"asking me to do hand-modelling in the future.’",
"Pippa is also busy planning her wedding to her",
"fiance, American race engineer Robert Gue. The",
"pair met in 2009 at a racing function and are",
"marrying in Indianapolis, where they live, in",
"December. ‘I had to break my own rule, which was",
"never to go out with someone from the racing",
"paddock. ‘Every female racing driver will tell",
"you that the paddock is like high school – nobody",
"has got anything better to do than talk about",
"whom they are dating. ‘If you want to be taken",
"seriously you try to steer clear of all that",
"stuff as much as you can. Dating someone in",
"racing will probably see you lose a bit of",
"respect.’ Despite her protestations, she is",
"immensely grateful to Robert for his support over",
"the past year. ‘Having a stable relationship has",
"helped me come through what has been a really",
"difficult time,’ she admits. Pippa is determined",
"to get back into IndyCar racing, but for now",
"Formula 1 is off the agenda, not least because",
"she believes the barriers for female racing",
"drivers remain higher in Europe than in the US.",
"She says: ‘In IndyCar, there have been successful",
"female drivers and that paves the way for others.",
"I am starting to see it change in Europe. It",
"looks like it is a little bit better for female",
"drivers, but there’s still a long way to go.’ And",
"Pippa remains philosophical about the risks.",
"‘Motor racing is dangerous and things can go",
"wrong. But it’s the same as life – you can get",
"knocked down stepping into the street.’"
