Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Neves, a £15.8m buy from Porto in July, found the top corner from 30 yards to give the visitors an early advantage.
Hull captain Michael Dawson nodded in from close range to equalise, but Diogo Jota turned in Bright Enobakhare's cross to restore Wolves' lead.
Nouha Dicko sent Hull to a first defeat, despite David Meyler's penalty.
Fraizer Campbell and Abel Hernandez had their best chances to equalise with the score at 2-1, but Campbell was denied by John Ruddy when one-on-one with the Wolves goalkeeper and the latter headed against a post from a corner.
Hull, who earlier on Tuesday rejected a £10m bid from Premier League side Burnley for midfielder Sam Clucas, won eight of their 19 home matches in the Premier League last season and hammered Burton 4-1 at home on Saturday,
But they were undone by two first-half goals of high quality from Wolves and a third on the counter attack from substitute Dicko.
Like fellow Portuguese 20-year-old Neves, on-loan Atletico Madrid forward Jota also scored in English football for the first time, his goal coming after excellent work on the right wing by teenager Enobakhare.
Wolves' defence was breached for the first time this season, having gone into the match as the only EFL club not to have let in a goal in a competitive game in 2017-18.
Despite the first-half concession to Dawson and Meyler's spot-kick in the ninth minute of stoppage time, they are one of three Championship teams to have won their first three league matches of the campaign.
Hull head coach Leonid Slutsky:
"It is very important to keep a player like Sam Clucas because he is a leader.
"We spoke with him about his situation but he's a really very professional guy and he has a long-term contract with the club.
"We built the team in a very difficult time. One more out can break the whole team, I'm very nervous about the situation."
Wolves head coach Nuno Espirito Santo told BBC WM:
"It was a good result. Parts of the performance went well but other parts not so well. We conceded from set-pieces.
"John Ruddy made a very good save but we have to work hard on set-pieces and not concede a goal from set-pieces.
"The good start to the season shows the hard work that the boys did from day one, the way they prepared themselves for the challenge."

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | It will see the Rosetta satellite, which is currently orbiting the huge "ice mountain" known as 67P, drop a small robot from a height of 20km.
If all goes well, the lander will free-fall towards the comet, making contact with the surface somewhere in a 1km-wide zone at roughly 15:35 GMT.
The European Space Agency (Esa) says the challenges ahead are immense.
Imagine pushing a washing machine out the back of an airliner at twice cruising altitude and expecting it to hit Regent's Park in London - all while the ground is moving underneath.
Although not really analogous for many reasons, this scenario does give a sense of the difficulties involved. The chances of failure are high.
Esa's confirmed date is actually a day later than the one that had been discussed in provisional planning in recent months.
The extra time will give flight controllers a bit more latitude as they try to get Rosetta into just the right position to deliver the 100kg lander, which goes by the name of Philae.
This requires careful "phasing" of Rosetta's path around 4km-wide 67P so that the satellite turns up at the precise, pre-determined ejection point, 22.5km from the centre of the comet at 08:35 GMT.
Because the whole event will be taking place 509 million km from Earth, any radio signal will take 28 minutes and 20 seconds to reach Esa's ground station network.
It means confirmation of success or failure will not come until perhaps just after 16:00 GMT.
The chosen landing site is on the "head" of the rubber-duck-shaped comet and is currently referred to simply as "J", the designation it was given in a list of possible destinations in the selection process.
It is far from ideal. It contains some terrifying cliffs, but is the flattest, most boulder-free location the mission team could find in its survey of the icy object.
Mapping of J and a back-up site known as "C" is ongoing.
This past week, Rosetta manoeuvred into an orbit just 20km from 67P, enabling its camera system to see details that can be measured on the sub-metre scale.
For landing, such information only has a certain usefulness, however, as the automated touchdown can only be targeted with a best precision that will likely run to hundreds of metres.
And that error is larger than any of the apparently smooth terrains in the J zone.
The whole separation, descent and landing (SDL) procedure is expected to take seven hours.
Philae will take a picture of Rosetta as it leaves its "parent".
It will also point a camera downwards so that it can see the approaching comet. Not that this information can change anything; Philae has no thrusters to control or alter its descent trajectory. It will land where it will land.
But the images will help controllers determine where the robot ended up after the event.
If Philae gets down successfully into a stable, operable configuration, it will fire harpoons and deploy screws to try to hang on to the surface.
The action of these devices will tell Esa mission control in Darmstadt, Germany, that the surface was engaged.
Will it hang on? Part of the problem here is that no-one really knows what the surface conditions will be.
Philae could sink into a soft powder or impact ice as hard as rock. A major worry is that it could simply bounce off into space.
Whatever the outcome, the Rosetta mission will continue.
Already the main satellite has returned some astonishing pictures of Comet 67P and the close-quarters observations it will conduct over the next year will transform our understanding of these remarkable objects.
The timings mentioned on this page carry some uncertainty and would change if subsequent mapping shows the J site to have a major problem, with Esa forced to shift its attention to the back-up destination, C. | The date has been fixed for Europe's daring attempt to land on a comet: Wednesday 12 November. |
Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Saints suffered a heavy 33-3 defeat in the reverse fixture last weekend.
Jim Mallinder's side fared much better in front of a home crowd on Friday but failed to cross the try line.
Northampton fly-half Stephen Myler and his Racing counterpart, World Cup winner Carter, kicked three penalties apiece as the two sides were forced to share the points.
Saints were down and out by half-time in last weekend's contest in France after going in 18 points behind.
The Premiership club were much more competitive in a cagey affair at Franklin's Gardens, but were unable to cross the whitewash and have now scored only one try in their last four games.
Myler kicked Saints into an early lead with a long-range penalty, but New Zealand great Carter, in his second game for Racing, soon levelled the score from the tee before adding a second against the run of play.
The fly-halves exchanged two more penalties each in the second half, and it was Saints who looked like the bigger threat in attack.
Their best chance for a try came on 66 minutes, when the usually reliable Carter saw his clearance charged down by George Pisi and Saints tried to scramble over from a five-metre scrum, but they were eventually penalised and the visitors cleared the danger.
The result leaves Northampton second in their group, two points behind leaders Racing who have a game in hand.
Northampton: Foden; Elliott, G Pisi, Burrell, North; Myler, Dickson (c); A Waller, Haywood, Brookes; Lawes, Matfield; Gibson, Harrison, Dickinson.

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | The organisation's annual world report said the rise of Islamic State (IS) "did not emerge in a vacuum" but was the result of regional abuses.
It said Iraq's and Syria's governments had created fertile ground for IS.
It also blamed the US for ignoring the abuses and concentrating solely on its military battle against IS militants.
"Human rights violations played a major role in spawning or aggravating most of today's crises," argued Kenneth Roth, director of the US-based watchdog, as Human Rights Watch (HRW) unveiled its 660-page World Report 2015 .
But while the world may seem to be "unravelling," many governments "appear to have concluded that today's serious security threats must take precedence over human rights", he said.
"In this difficult moment, they seem to argue, human rights must be put on the back burner, a luxury for less trying times," he said. However, shelving them is "not only wrong, but also short-sighted and counterproductive", he said.
Four years after the arrival of the "Arab Spring" brought hopes for a new era of justice in the Middle East, the report makes grim reading, the BBC's Jim Muir reports from Beirut, where the report was presented.
The report singles out many countries in the region - especially Iraq, Syria and Egypt - for trampling on human rights in the name of facing security challenges which it argued themselves had their roots in abuses of power.
The dramatic arrival of IS had led to a subordination of human rights, the report said, adding: "Rarely has an armed force engendered such widespread revulsion and opposition."
However, the abusive sectarian polices pursued by the Iraqi government, and the "atrocities" inflicted on civilians by the Assad regime in Syria, had been "important factors in fuelling" IS, the report said.
And the regional governments were not the only ones to blame, HRW said.
In Iraq, the US-led 2003 invasion had left a security vacuum and there had been subsequent "international indifference" to abuses by the Iraqi government, the report said.
Meanwhile, it said, in Syria, the US and its allies had allowed military action against IS to "overshadow" efforts to get Damascus to end abuses.
"This selective concern allows Isis recruiters to portray themselves to potential supporters as the only force willing to stand up to Assad's atrocities," the report said, using another acronym for the IS militant group.
As for Egypt, the report said the crushing of the Muslim Brotherhood sent the message to political Islamists that there was no point going to the polls, because they would be repressed anyway.
"Rather than treating human rights as a chafing restraint, policymakers worldwide would do better to recognise them as moral guides offering a path out of crisis and chaos," Mr Roth concluded. | Governments' tendencies to ignore human rights in the face of security threats is not just wrong, but also counter-productive, Human Rights Watch says. |
Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | The Irish Football Association is now seeking different opponents for the game, which is expected to be part of a double-header of friendly fixtures.
"We had made provisional plans to play in Poland," Irish FA chief executive Patrick Nelson told BBC Sport NI.
"But that was conditional on us not being drawn together at Euro 2016."
Northern Ireland face the Poles in their Group C opener in Nice on 12 June with the contest against Ukraine following in Lyon four days later, before the match against world champions Germany in Paris on 21 June.

Manager Michael O'Neill approach both Martin O'Neill and Gordon Strachan, his Republic of Ireland and Scotland counterparts, for advice before the tournament as both countries faced Germany and Poland in their qualifying group.
"We know a fair bit about Poland anyway and we obviously know the threat of (Robert) Lewandowski," said the Northern Ireland boss.
"The Ukrainians are a bit more unknown to us but I think one of the real strong points of our preparation has always been our level of detail on the opposition."
Northern Ireland have also been drawn against Joachim Low's Germany side in qualification for the 2018 World Cup.
O'Neill added: "Germany were maybe the pot one team that I didn't want but, having been drawn in it and got my head around it, I think it's a fantastic game for us.
"To get the opportunity to play the world champions in Paris in a major tournament is going to be a great occasion.
"Everyone will expect them to top the group, so in many ways it turns it into a mini group of three with ourselves, Ukraine and Poland. I certainly believe we can be competitive in that company.
"We proved that in qualification and we have to believe we can get out of the group."

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Mike Hedges reiterated his support to the Labour leader, calling for opponents to stand against him if they think they can do a better job.
A statement by Mr Hedges was read out at a rally of supporters of Mr Corbyn outside Welsh Labour's headquarters in Cardiff on Friday.
It comes after a week of turmoil in the party, with mass resignations from the shadow cabinet.
Despite repeated calls for his resignation, and losing a motion of no-confidence among his MPs, Mr Corbyn has stayed in place.
Pontypridd MP Owen Smith and Angela Eagle, MP for Wallasey, are considering leadership bids if he does not resign.
Mr Hedges, AM for Swansea East, said ordinary members overwhelmingly wanted Mr Corbyn as leader: "Thousands joined the Labour party in order to support him".
He said, in a statement read out at the rally at Transport House: "Has Jeremy made mistakes? Of course he has, all new leaders do.
"Remember when we had a Labour leader who could not eat a bacon sandwich?
"If someone thinks they can do a better job than Jeremy is doing, their option is straight forward. Go and get the required number of nominations from MPs, stand and let the members decide.
"Put crudely, put up or shut up."
The rally was told the statement had the support of Jenny Rathbone, Cardiff Central AM, but neither attended.
Speakers included Darren Williams, a Cardiff Labour councillor who sits on Labour's national executive committee.
He said the party needed to return to "full mandatory reselection", calling for MPs to "pay with their jobs for what they've done".
"We must never forgive or forget what's been done in the last few days," he said, adding Mr Corbyn has been put under "intense pressure by careerists and backstabbers".
PCS Wales Secretary Shavanah Taj said the 60,000 people reported to have joined the party in the last week "haven't joined the Labour Party because of Angela or Tom".
Among those who attended was Hedley McCarthy, former Blaenau Gwent Labour leader and a county councillor, who said Mr Corbyn had been "treated abysmally".
"They are showing no respect for the membership of the Labour Party," he added.
One organiser of the rally of said he believed about 300 people attended.
Earlier this week, First Minister Carwyn Jones said it would be very difficult for him to carry on as leader if he faced the same situation as Mr Corbyn. | Opponents of Jeremy Corbyn need to "put up or shut up", a Labour AM has said. |
Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | It is 22 miles (35km) north of Cardiff.
The colliery closed 25 years ago this week but it has not been the only local landmark to shut.
Maerdy Workingmen's Hall was demolished; then there was the demise of the post office and the bookmakers' shop. Even the church closed.
Four years ago, the village found itself fighting, unsuccessfully, to keep St Mary's open as the Church in Wales faced a £400,000 repair bill.
A couple of takeaways lie empty on the high street and a cafe closed a few months ago.
But there is a butcher's shop, a pharmacy, doctors' surgery, a grocers, florist, beauty salon and a hairdressers. There is a bar and two social clubs.
There are plans to rebuild the Spar shop on a bigger site nearby. Importantly, the village charity shop helps raise money for projects around the area.
"A lot of the shops have shut down," says Susan Jones. "I used to work for Rhian's cake and bread shop but that closed and I started work here."
She is behind the fryer at M&Ms fish and chip shop - one of two chippies in the village, the other at the bottom end of the village. It is the warmest place in Maerdy on a winter's day, with a biting wind outside.
When the owners took over eight years ago, they extended through to open a cafe. Residents pop in for a coffee or to pick up pie and chips. I asked for curry sauce on my chips and there were three varieties. I had to try "Irish curry sauce" - sweet and spicy, if you want to know.
Susan, 57, whose husband Gareth, 59, worked at the pit, recalls the closure but also remembers the strike just five years before that.
"My daughter was born in the miners' strike," she said, "It was a difficult time, we struggled, we didn't have a lot of money.
"But the village all pulled together. We used to have Maerdy Hall just across the road there and food delivered from people everywhere.
"We had food parcels given to us. I remember having tins of tomatoes, tins of beans and corn beef, a Fray Bentos pie and perhaps five pounds of potatoes and that would be it."
After the pit closed "it was awful for a long time. All the men fought so hard to keep it open. And all the women were all behind them too."
Mrs Jones' husband had a few jobs before retraining as a wall tiler.
"I don't think it's the same since the pit shut. We need more factories or something up here."
THE MAERDY ECONOMY
Looking at Maerdy, there are problems which are familiar to other villages and small towns up and down the country. But there is also a legacy of its mining past.
There is no railway station to serve just over half the population of 3,500 who are working age. The track which served the colliery was pulled up; the nearest station is five miles (8km) away in Aberdare, or down the valley, six miles (10km) away in Porth.
Communities First have eight areas in the Rhondda Cynon Taf county area working on projects to boost learning, skills and health, as well as running youth sessions.
Coordinator for the Rhondda Fach area, Ros Davies, runs work and skills clubs.
"There's a Catch 22," she says. "People need to travel for work but the pay needs to be enough for them to afford it. Car ownership is quite low here. The bus service is very good but it's expensive.
"I've been here since 2002 and it's quite a resilient community. Maybe that's due to the miners' strike, but people will join together and put things on to raise money."
MAERDY FIGHTING BACK - THE LIBRARY CAMPAIGN
What Maerdy is not short of is community spirit.
The most recent battle was to reopen the village library, closed due to budget cuts. Thanks to a charity - Friends of Ferndale - it reopened as a village hub and employs two community workers.
As well as children's activities, there is a Welsh class, craft morning and there are plans for adult learning classes. A mobile library will visit and it is hoped it will be a satellite for the Welsh government-funded Flying Start programme.
This provides free childcare with the aim of helping mothers back into work or training, which has already set up at the village secondary school.
Natalie Wells, 40, who has a cake decorating business, was at school when Mardy Colliery closed and remembers "tough times".
She talks about the Maerdy spirit and how the community got behind the library campaign.
"We had a petition - thousands of signatures - tried all ways for funding, people volunteered just for it not to close but the funding was cut and it was closed," she said.
"We fought hard for this. The kids need it, there's not a lot around, the youth clubs were closing, we don't want them on the streets.
"This is lovely, they come from school, making crafts with friends and it teaches them more of the community spirit of what it was like when we were their age."
MAERDY FIGHTING BACK - THE BOXING CLUB
The fighting spirit is there in abundance three evenings a week at Maerdy Boxing Club.
Businessman Brett Parry set up the club nearly three years ago with coach Mike Hughes.
Even on a terrible night, with torrential rain pounding on the roof, eight youngsters have turned out for a full gym work out.
They put them through their paces and joke with them that they will be sent out on one of the gym's training runs up one of the village hills. Luckily, these are reserved for the summer months.
After "taking a punt" on buying a dilapidated building, the community rallied around the pair as they looked to renovate it.
"Everyone came together, every tradesmen under the sun offering not only free labour but also materials," said Mr Parry.
"The offers have been endless. The help in the village alone has been superb.
"It goes to show you need one person to come up with an idea and be that leading figure and then there are a lot of people who want to help."
Those using it are aged 10 to 60 and since 2013, the club has had four Welsh novice champions - aged from 10 to 16.
The children also have someone to look up to - coach Mr Hughes' 21-year-old son Alex "Bad News" Hughes is a super middleweight with high hopes that can only be good news for Maerdy.
He now has six fights unbeaten as a professional, training out of Gary Lockett's gym in Cardiff and with Frank Warren promoting him.
"Alex is on the right path and a big prospect," says Brett. "It's great for the children to see him - he'll use the gym here a couple of times a week - but they can look up to someone and what you can achieve if you work hard."
A school friend of Mr Parry is Keiron Montague. Both were eight-years-old when the colliery closed.
His father, Barrie, lost his job after 24 years in the pit but had qualified as an electrician and he was able to find work.
Keiron Montague "absolutely loved" growing up in Maerdy.
"We had a fantastic environment and I really enjoyed school; there were lots of activities going on, fantastic local groups and that community spirit," he said.
He left to study for a degree in Cardiff but returned to live and worked running youth services in Merthyr Tydfil, across the heads of the valleys.
He became the councillor for Maerdy three years ago, and is now full-time with the authority as deputy leader of Rhondda Cynon Taf council.
"Most of the people I've spoken to who worked in the mines never found it the same afterwards - the camaraderie and the type of employment," he said.
"But a lot of people have moved on and done very well for themselves. But some have struggled and we have a history of poor health."
Mr Montague said a focus on skills and infrastructure was starting to improve things.
"There's been vast improvement in the education performance of our schools in the last 10 years," he said.
"We're getting these skills right. We've got a fantastic primary school at the hub of the community and a secondary school which is renowned across Wales for the quality of its teaching and learning.
"There are loads of success stories, people I went to school with are doctors and pharmacists and a friend of mine worked on the Cern particle accelerator."
A ROAD TO REGENERATION?
Around half of people work locally as tradesmen or for small businesses or in factories.
But the proportion commuting to jobs in places such as Cardiff or Treforest is less than half the average for Wales.
In 2007, £98m Rhondda bypass opened and was seen as a major regeneration catalyst. Traffic no longer had to wind its way up narrow roads through the town of Porth and former mining villages.
But the new road stops just south of Tylorstown and motorists have to rejoin the old road as it takes an incline up the valley and the final miles to Maerdy.
Mr Montague said: "We still need the last leg of that journey from Tylorstown. Things have improved in terms of the road infrastructure.
"People look at the way the public sector and the way the economy is and think it's going to be like that for ever - doom and gloom.
"There will be a time when it picks back up and it's about us being ready to take those opportunities."
MOVING TO MAERDY?
The council is looking to use its powers to make private housing development more feasible in the valleys, to attract builders beyond the historic "snow line" at Pontypridd.
Mr Montague believes new homes in the village will not only bring construction jobs "but people living there will put money back into the economy as well".
He does not agree with one estate agent who told me Maerdy's image as deprived was not attractive to buyers.
Prices for terraced homes typically range from £50,000 to £80,000.
First-time buyers were "few and far between" with Pontypridd, Porth, Ynyshir and Tonyrefail more in demand.
Another told me they were very busy with sales to Maerdy but they were mainly people investing in buy-to-let properties.
Mr Montague said: "We've got a high percentage of home ownership within the community and we do tend to have people living in Maerdy who want to stay here, so we must be doing something right."
After speaking to him I met Bill Dacey, a former pub owner from Cardiff who moved to the edge of Maerdy 18 months ago. His wife commutes to work in the city.
"I know everyone living 10 doors either side of me," he said. "It's a slower pace of life - but a nice, slow pace of life."

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | The central bank has said it will allow banks to trade deposits with each other from Monday, using a financial product called certificates of deposit.
The interest rate on the certificates will be determined by the market, unlike ordinary deposits, which are subject to rate caps in China.
The move is also likely to help improve cash circulation in interbank market.
In June, the overnight lending rate between banks jumped to exceed 25% at one point as banks became reluctant to lend to each other amid a cash crunch, before falling in subsequent days.
China's state-owned Xinhua news agency said the latest move "will allow banks to borrow at more stable costs in the interbank market".
The minimum amount for an individual certificate of deposit will have to be 50m yuan ($8.2m; £5m) and banks will also have to inform the central bank in advance about how much they plan to issue in a year.
After years of robust expansion, China has seen its growth rate slow in recent times.
It has also faced calls to rebalance its growth model - moving away from investment and export-led growth to one driven by consumption.
Liberalising its financial and capital markets is seen by many as key to Beijing achieving that and spurring a fresh wave of economic growth.
For their part, Chinese policymakers have indicated that they are looking to loosen their grip on the tightly controlled sector.
In September, China launched a free-trade zone in Shanghai where controls on key sectors will be eased.
Measures to be trialled inside the zone include market-driven interest rates and allowing China's heavily-regulated currency, the yuan, to be swapped freely for other currencies.
In July, the central bank, People's Bank of China (PBOC), scrapped the lower limit on lending rates offered by financial institutions, a key step towards liberalising interest rates.
The move was also aimed at cutting financing costs for businesses and consumers to help stoke domestic consumption. | China has taken another step in liberalising its financial sector by loosening its grip on interest rates. |

"That's important when you get to this stage of the season."
The 29-year-old was a member of Northampton Town's League Two title-winning squad last season before joining Portsmouth in the summer.
"You've got to try and enjoy these moments of these run-ins as they don't come along too often," he told BBC Radio Solent.
"The sooner we can get ourselves over the line, we can relax and enjoy it a bit.
Portsmouth's only remaining games against rival promotion and play-off contenders are Plymouth at home and Mansfield away.
But Rose feels they cannot afford to ease off in any of their last eight fixtures as they look to return to League One after four seasons in the fourth-tier, having lost to Plymouth in last season's play-off semi-finals.
"It's nice having a points cushion," he admitted. "But, it doesn't automatically mean you have a day off.
"We have to keep concentrating and focusing on results and trying to get as many points as we can." | Portsmouth midfielder Danny Rose believes "experienced heads" will help see them through in their bid to secure automatic promotion from League Two. |
Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Lancaster left his role with England after they were knocked out in the pool stages of last year's home tournament.
"You think about it every minute of most days, or every day really," Lancaster, 46, told Sportsweek.
"It has been a while, and a lot of things have happened since then, but it's still fresh in my mind."
The hosts were eliminated from the World Cup when they were beaten by Australia - a week after a dramatic loss to Wales - and Lancaster says he accepts responsibility for England's failure.
"I was accountable more than anyone. I was the head coach and it was my responsibility to lead the team," he said.

Lancaster says he was more pleased than anyone to see the team bounce back to win the Six Nations Grand Slam under his successor Eddie Jones.
"I'm delighted for the players, the management and the coaches that we got the Grand Slam," he continued.
"I'm equally delighted for the England rugby fans, because they stayed behind the team right the way throughout. They all deserve the success.
"I will always support the England team - whether it is players and coaches - and that will never change."
And after spending time at rugby clubs in New Zealand, Australia and South Africa this year, Lancaster is gearing up for the next chapter of his career, with the 46-year-old willing to take a job in the southern hemisphere.
"I don't feel so burnt by the whole experience that I don't want to coach again," he said.
"You need a new project to get your teeth into, otherwise you are always dwelling on the old one.
"The lure of coaching Super Rugby is a big one for me personally. The southern hemisphere would be a tremendous challenge and a great opportunity.
"Hopefully something will come around the corner soon, but there aren't many jobs in Super Rugby that are going to come up and there aren't many jobs in the Premiership that are going to come up.
"You have to weigh up your family as well, [so] whichever way you look it's a big decision, and I want to make it the right decision."
In a wide-ranging, exclusive interview with Garry Richardson on Sportsweek, Lancaster reflected on captain Chris Robshaw's decision at the end of the tight match against Wales to kick to touch instead of for goal, the Sam Burgess affair, the impact the World Cup had on his family, and where he goes next.
"Chris was a brilliant captain for us and for me personally. I certainly wouldn't have anything said about that particular decision or what we did in the lead up to it.
"Games are never won or lost on one moment.
"Clearly the result against Wales was the critical moment in the World Cup for us. We were 22-12 up nearly 60 minutes into the game, and we lost a game we should have won.
"The reality was that we put ourselves in a position to win the game.
"I guess what disappointed me a little bit was the way Wales were allowed to stay in the game. Dan Biggar had an unbelievable kicking game to be honest, but we should have seen the game out. I think that was the frustration from everyone's point of view, players and coaches included."
"It's a shame for everyone really. I don't think there was any winner in the end.
"Clearly, hindsight is a wonderful thing. If I'd known he was going to go back to rugby league then my decisions would have been different, but we didn't know that at the time.
"He was a great and positive influence on the group. He worked hard and earned the right, in our minds, to be in the squad.
"I think there's a perception that I somehow went on a crusade to try and recruit him from rugby league. Actually, what happened was I went to Australia and watched a game [Australia v New Zealand] and I popped in to see various coaches along the way.
"One of those was Michael Maguire [head coach at South Sydney Rabbitohs] and Sam pulled me on the way out and said 'do you fancy a coffee?'
"We had a chat and he said 'I want to have a think about playing rugby union, how do I go about doing it?'"
"My wife and my daughter came down and my mum and my dad [to the Australia game - which England lost 33-13]. Fortunately my wife took them out of the stadium before the game finished. She saw when we lost Owen [Farrell] to the sin bin that the die was cast. It was a sensible move.
"You're then sat there in your hotel room at two o'clock in the morning, waiting for a press conference at 9 o'clock in the morning with the chief executive to face the world's media to say 'you're out of a home World Cup and you've got another week to go to play Uruguay'. That is tough.
"The first thing I did after the Uruguay game was to come back to Leeds, but also to quickly get up to Cumbria to see my mum and dad. They're the ones that feel the pain more than anyone. It's probably only mum who can describe the pain she feels when someone is criticising her son.
"They took their caravan to Lorton and I sat in a caravan in Lorton and walked up fells in the Lake District.
"I walked up St Bees Head, where I went to school, and right at the top I bumped into this bloke and he said 'you're Stuart Lancaster aren't you?'.
"Anyway, I went back to the caravan. I had the review around the corner and so I wanted to think things through, and while it was fresh in my mind, write things down.
"So I did that in the caravan and there was a little pub called the Wheatsheaf and I went in there for a beer, which ended up being about eight. There were about five people in the pub at the time."
"Before Christmas I sent a whole load of emails out to coaches and players and teams and people in the southern hemisphere. Early in the new year I went initially to Wellington, then I went to Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Johannesburg, Cape Town and home. So it was a bit of an around-the-world trip.
"I want to coach again. The one thing the World Cup has taught me is that whilst my title was head coach, I probably took on so much that I wasn't doing as much coaching as I really would want to.
"In my next role I'd want someone to share the responsibility with me so I could concentrate on the coaching stuff, and that was as much my fault as anyone's. I probably could have got someone in who could have helped me shoulder the burden."

"Hopefully [the team] has been passed on in a good shape and with good, talented players coming through. Eddie has done a brilliant job in moulding them and getting the best out of them this Six Nations.
"We met a couple of weeks after Eddie got the job. I don't see any point in learning all the lessons I learned and not passing them on - that would be ludicrous.
"Hopefully he appreciated the insight I gave him, and clearly he has put his own mark on the team. We had a good chat."

Government forces entered the city's outskirts for the first time on Tuesday since the city was seized in June 2014.
Wednesday is the 17th day of the anti-IS operation, which involves 50,000 personnel including Kurdish Peshmerga fighters and Sunni Arab tribesmen.
Elite troops seized control of the state TV building in Kukjali on Tuesday hours after launching an assault on the eastern district and later breached the outskirts of the Karama district.
A BBC journalist travelling with them said they were facing stiff resistance.
But Mr al-Numan, a spokesman for the Counter Terrorism Service (CTS) said: "We broke the front line of the centre of Mosul. We liberated a very important area which is the main gate for Mosul from the east.
"We had a very tough fight with ISIS in this area and we could liberate it very fast and also without any casualties, in front of many dead and executed from ISIS."
Mosul is last major urban stronghold of IS in the country.
The men of the special forces appear casual - but make no mistake, they are ready.
Many have scars from Ramadi or Falluja or both. They have lost friends. Some are younger than you might expect for the fighting they have experienced.
Many are also recently married - common practice before deploying for battle - and keen to show pictures of their new brides on their smart phones.
From low-ranked soldiers to top generals, all say this is not going to be easy. The mission could take months.
But liberating Mosul is the fight they have been waiting for.

Army units are also pushing into the south-eastern Judaydat al-Mufti area, according to the military.
The operation is backed by air and ground support from a US-led coalition.
On Monday, Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi told the 3,000 to 5,000 militants believed to still be inside Mosul that there was "no escape" and to "either surrender or die".
About 1,000 of the militants are thought to be foreigners. Gen Talib Shaghati al-Kenani said they came from Uzbekistan, Turkey and other countries.
"Those are a group of terrorists who fight Iraqis and usurp their cities," Gen Kenani said.
Many people have fled the area but some civilians have returned to their homes in villages around Mosul, some waving white flags to show they are not fighters.
As Mosul is encircled, UN officials have expressed concern for the safety of the 1.5 million civilians estimated to be living there.

In a rage, Potts forced his way into his friend's home and inflicted "devastating violence" as Mr Jones slept with his two-year-old.
Potts admitted grievous bodily harm and burglary and was jailed for three years at Mold Crown Court.
Mr Jones suffered devastating consequences and was still affected by the attack, which happened in April.
Judge Philip Richards said: "You were prepared to use devastating violence, not on a stranger, but on a young man who had offered you friendship.
"It beggars belief that anyone could behave like that, towards his own friend."
Father-of-one Potts had been seeing his girlfriend for two years, but had heard rumours she was seeing Mr Jones.
It was not true, but on 12 April Potts forced his way into Mr Jones's house, barged into his bedroom where he was asleep with his son and attacked him.

The judges said the "innovative work and move away from banding, the amazing results achieved and rate of acceleration" made St Patrick's stand out.
They also praised the school's work in the community.
In 2011, only 51% of GCSE pupils at St Patrick's were achieving five A*-Cs including English and maths.
By 2014 it had become the highest-performing non-selective school in Northern Ireland, with 80% of pupils achieving those results and 93% leaving with five GCSEs.
TES said St Patrick's had abandoned streaming and banding, focused on teaching and learning, motivating and engaging boys, and assessment for Learning.
It said it also built stronger links with its partner primary schools and a learning resource centre now assists students who are struggling.
"But it's not all about the academic side: St Patrick's is prominent in the local community, sending food hampers to those in need at Christmas and organising regular visits to the elderly," it said.
"As the school's entry to the TES Schools Awards pointed out, the emphasis is on education in its 'fullest sense'."

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | So when Hillary Clinton came on stage around 10pm on Monday night in Iowa at a rally in Des Moines' Drake University she didn't declare victory but said she was breathing a "big sigh of relief'" as she thanked Iowans for their support and their hard work on behalf of her campaign.
By the next morning, the final results had come in and Mrs Clinton was officially declared the winner, the first ever woman to win an Iowa caucus and a victory by the narrowest margin in history. The race had already moved 1,300 miles east to New Hampshire and Mrs Clinton was at her first event at Nashua community college by noon.
"I am thrilled to be here in New Hampshire after winning Iowa,'' she said to cheers from the audience. "I can tell you, I've won and I've lost there - and it's a lot better to win."
If this was a win, it wasn't the victory that Mrs Clinton would have wanted in a state where until late last year she was still leading by a wide margin. But the Hawkeye state has given her and her husband much trouble. Bill Clinton didn't bother campaigning there in 1992 when he was running for president and finished in third place in the caucuses. Mrs Clinton also came in third in 2008, a loss from which she never recovered during that race as her rival, then senator Barack Obama, went on to make history and become America's first black president.
The Clinton campaign had hoped to break the Iowa curse with a better ground organisation, months of preparation and a lot of retail politics in small settings by the candidates. As polls showed Mrs Clinton and her Democratic rival Bernie Sanders in a dead heat, her campaign aides remained cautiously optimistic, predicting a win by a narrow margin. Some who had already gone through the defeat of 2008 were tempering their expectations and contemplated a possible loss.
Monday night in Iowa was a nail biting evening as the votes were tallied and the margin between Mr Sanders and Mrs Clinton narrowed and then widened repeatedly, often by barely a percentage point. Results projected on a screen in the Clinton rally elicited cheers and gasps from the hundreds of supporters who were waiting for her to appear and speak to them.
By the time she left the stage, the race was officially still too close to call. Standing by her side, neither Bill nor Chelsea spoke. And the customary rope line greetings with supporters was scrapped as the Clintons made their way out of Drake University and to the airport to catch a flight to New Hampshire. In the crowd, there was celebration but no jubilation.
"This was a tough night. I had hoped she would do better and considering her name recognition and accomplishments and improved ground operation, she should have," said Joan Lipkin, a Clinton campaign volunteer who had come all the way from Missouri with 160 volunteers to canvass for the former first lady. Lipkin had volunteered in 2008 and said that her heart was broken then. On Monday night, her heart was ''dented'', she said.
"I'm not celebrating because I think Sanders poses a real challenge and many of his supporters are so enraged at the system that they may not come over if she wins the nomination."
Late into the night, on a chartered plane from Iowa to New Hampshire carrying Clinton aides and the press corps covering her campaign, there was exhaustion after days of campaigning in Iowa and trailing behind the candidate on a bus.
As headlines swirled about a tie between Mrs Clinton and Mr Sanders, Clinton spokesperson Brian Fallon and communications director Jennifer Palmieri tried to get ahead of the story, briefing journalists before the plane took off so stories could be filed.
"We believe strongly that we won tonight," Mr Fallon said. Based on their internal calculations and an app that reported turnout levels and delegate allocations, the Clinton camp said they had already determined they had 22 delegates, one more than Sanders, and that the finally tally would allocate the remaining delegate to Mrs Clinton.
"So while there are still a few precincts remaining the only candidate who can emerge from tonight's caucuses with a win is Hilary Clinton."
When the plane landed at Manchester airport in New Hampshire just before 5am and campaign aides sitting at the front of the plane were able to log into their emails, cheers erupted as they read the news that the final tally had come in from the Iowa Democratic party, in favour of Mrs Clinton. Her two-delegate lead over Mr Sanders is the same as Mr Obama's lead in 2008.
But for a candidate with such a formidable resume running against a self-declared socialist from Vermont, the race for the nomination should be a walk in the park.
Increasingly since late last year, the expectation is that this will be a long hard slog because Mr Sanders has tapped into a sentiment among young voters and a desire for revolutionary change that Mrs Clinton has not yet been able to channel.
Clinton aides also tried to highlight what could be an ominous sign for Mr Sanders who is counting heavily on caucus states to find a path to the nomination.
"Senator Sanders has been saying for weeks that if this caucus was a high turnout affair, he would win. He was wrong," said Mr Fallon. The Clinton aides described Iowa as a left-leaning state that was tailor-made for Mr Sanders' strengths
Turnout was indeed high at 180,000 and it should have favoured Mr Sanders. This could spell trouble for him in future caucus states like Nevada. Mrs Clinton had once described caucuses as ''creatures of the parties' extreme''.
In southern states, Mr Sanders is trailing well behind and failing to connect with African-American voters. Mrs Clinton is banking on these more hospitable grounds to start picking large numbers of delegates to help her advance to the finish line for the nomination.

Democratic vote, 99% reported:

US election: Iowa results map
But first, Mr Sanders is expected to win by a wide margin in the Granite state. So why is Mrs Clinton even bothering to campaign here?
Perhaps because in 2008, this was the state that gave her a morale boost after her Iowa defeat. She won by two points after polls had showed her trailing well behind Mr Obama.
No one in the Clinton camp expects to win New Hampshire, Mr Sanders' backyard and a state where 44% of voters identify as independent. Although he is running for the Democratic nomination, Mr Sanders is the longest serving independent member of congress.
If Mrs Clinton had hoped for a boost in New Hampshire from a sizeable win in Iowa, she will now spend the rest of the week assiduously trying to narrow the gap with her opponent in what is now a two-horse race after former Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley dropped out on Monday night.
"She loves New Hampshire, she's really excited to be here and it's part of the primary process and she's going to march through each part of it and try to win everywhere," said Ms Palmieri.
Pressed about Mr Sanders not yet conceding Iowa, Ms Palmieri replied tersely: "We won." | She hadn't officially won yet but she hadn't lost. |

They found a "notable absence of clinical leadership" resulting in a "failure to adequately plan care".
Pennine Acute NHS Trust apologised to the families of those who died.
A trust spokesman said he could not comment on whether any of the deaths resulted from failings, saying it was a "legal matter for the coroner".
The review, carried out by a senior midwife and an obstetrician outside the trust, found risk management during and before labour were "below standard, which may have contributed to the poor outcomes".
Three cases involved women medically classed as obese, with their needs "not managed in line with local and national guidance".
Twelve recommendations were made, including improving how serious incidents were dealt with and reviewing the process for employing locum doctors.
Three maternal deaths "did not appear to be the result of deficiencies in care".
The trust said it was investing more than £1m by recruiting 40 new healthcare assistants to support patients and midwives.

He suffered severe head injuries after five attempts were made to deliver him using forceps.
National guidelines recommend no more than three attempts.
Gill Harris, chief nurse at the trust, said the incidents "should be seen in the context of approximately 10,000 births a year" at the hospitals.
She said: "The trust board today repeated sincere apologies to all of the families involved for the failings in care which had been identified. I have met with a number of the families and have reiterated the offer to meet with the remaining families, if they wish.

The pair were racing a Ferrari and Lamborghini through a tunnel in central Beijing when they crashed on 11 April.
A woman passenger in the Lamborghini suffered a fractured spine.
The two men are reported to have pleaded guilty to the charge of dangerous driving, and told the court they have no plans to appeal against their sentences.
"I made a mistake, had a bad influence on society, and hurt my family and friends," Tang, who drove the Lamborghini, was quoted as saying.
The court heard the two cars were travelling at speeds of up to 179 km/h (111 mph) when they spun out of control in the Datun Road tunnel, near the national stadium, running over a guardrail and hitting the tunnel walls.
The police at the time said the two men were in their 20s and unemployed, prompting speculation that they were the offspring of wealthy officials or business people.
This has since been denied by Tang's family, who said their son had bought the Lamborghini after making a fortune in the stock market. Yu is reported to have said he borrowed the Ferrari.

It is named after former Dundee United footballer Frank Kopel, who died in 2014 after being diagnosed with dementia.
Mr Kopel's wife, Amanda, has been campaigning for a change in the law.
People under the age of 65 who require personal care have to pay for it - however, it is free to those over the age of 65 who are assessed by their local authority as needing it.
Mrs Kopel has been calling for the rules to be changed in order for people under 65 who are diagnosed with dementia and other degenerative conditions such as motor neurone disease, Parkinson's, multiple sclerosis and cancer to also be eligible for free care.
Her husband, who started his career at Manchester United before playing more than 280 games for Dundee United, was 59 when he was diagnosed with vascular dementia and Alzheimer's in 2008.
His family had to pay out about £300 a week on personal care towards the end of his life - with Mr Kopel eligible for just 19 days of free care before his death at the age of 65 in April 2014.
Mrs Kopel was given a standing ovation at the Scottish Conservative conference in Glasgow after telling delegates there was "blatant discrimination" against dementia patients aged under 65.
The Conservatives say there is a majority of MSPs at Holyrood who are in favour of changing the law - with only the SNP currently opposed.
Conservative mental health spokesman Miles Briggs told the conference that he had met with the Scottish Parliament authorities and would table the bill in the coming months.
Mr Briggs had previously announced he would act if the Scottish government did not.
He said: "It is a shocking indictment on this SNP government's record on health that terminally ill patients under the age of 65 are being charged for the basic help they need.
"Many patients and families have told me, when you're on your deathbed, worrying about where you'll find money to pay for vital care is the last thing you want to go through.
"That's why Frank's Law is needed today, it was needed yesterday, and I will not let the SNP kick this into the long grass."
A spokeswoman for Health Secretary Shona Robison said the Conservatives "know full well that the Scottish government is already committed to examining the extension of free personal and nursing care to those under 65 while protecting existing provision.
"And we have acted to expand current provision. People with terminal illnesses already qualify for free care, and we have invested £6m to increase the income threshold at which someone becomes liable for charges.
"From 1 April 2017, armed forces veterans will have income from war pensions disregarded from social care financial assessments. And we are transforming the way we treat dementia so more people have their independence for longer and working towards greater supported self-management at home." | Free care for dementia patients could be extended to those under the age of 65 under proposals set out at the Scottish Conservative conference. |

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | "It's the coolest fluke ever," says the 18-year-old about her meteoric rise - which is all thanks to one track.
That song is Here, a shy and sultry R&B jam about not belonging, which finds the singer trapped among awful people at an awful house party.
Built around the same slinky Isaac Hayes sample that powered Portishead's Glory Box, it racked up 50,000 plays on Soundcloud the day it was uploaded, and has since garnered nine million views on YouTube.
"I knew there was something special about that song but I didn't expect people to love it so much," Cara tells the BBC.
Born Alessia Caracciolo, the singer grew up on the outskirts of Toronto in an Italian home. Like her fellow Ontarians Drake and The Weeknd, her music is a laconic, millennial take on R&B.
"Canada is a really big melting pot of cultures, so we ended up with a giant mosaic of different music," she says, "but there's now a defined Toronto sound, this very dark, underground mixture of hip-hop and R&B."
As Here is released in the UK, Cara explains how the track came about, and what we can expect from her next.
Hi Alessia, how are you enjoying London?
Hey there! I'm good. I love it here. I don't want to be cliched but Buckingham Palace is beautiful and the old red telephone booths are really interesting to me. I've always wanted to see those.
Congratulations on the success of Here. How did the song come about?
It was based on a real party that I had gone to two years ago in my friend's basement.
I'd been to other parties before which were fine and I thought this would be the same - but it absolutely was not. When I got there, it seemed like everyone knew each other except for me. Everyone was sweaty and dancing and listening to music I'd never heard before. People were getting drunk and smoking and they were passed out on the floor. I felt way too uncomfortable. I just didn't belong.
Through the eyes of someone else, that might have been an amazing party - but it was not my thing. So I asked my mom to come get me and I went home early.
In the song you describe yourself as an "antisocial pessimist". Is that an accurate portrait?
I don't think that's true! Even in the song I say, 'Excuse me if I seem like an anti-social pessimist.' So, to someone watching me from the outside, I might have seemed that way. I was just annoyed with everyone, I didn't want to talk to anyone. But I'm not anti-social.
Which is good news, because you're in the wrong industry for someone who doesn't like big parties.
Or so you'd think! But I haven't been invited to any parties so far. I think everyone hates me now.
Maybe they're too scared to ask in case you write a scathing song about their soiree.
Yeah, they probably think I'm going to ruin everything!
The Isaac Hayes sample is so strongly associated with Portishead that using it in a new song is either incredibly brave or extremely foolhardy. What made you go with it?
It was actually the last thing we added. Two years after I wrote the song, it was still just a demo and then I went into the studio with these producers named Pop and Oak in LA. I played them the track and they said, 'We want to to work on it.'
Pop had the idea to pull up that song. He took four seconds of it and started putting it on a loop - then I started singing over that loop. And I realised, 'Wow, this really fits.' I don't know how he thought of putting that song in it, but I guess that's why he's a producer and I'm not!
You grew up in Brampton, a small suburb of Toronto. Was is a musical household?
It wasn't a major thing. Ninety per cent of my family are hairdressers and the other 10% are construction workers.
Music was something I found on my own. I got my first guitar when I was around 10 and it just all developed over time.
What's the first thing you remember listening to?
Other than the Sesame Street soundtrack, which I was obsessed with, the first artist I really felt I'd discovered on my own was Amy Winehouse. She was the first female artist I wanted to write like and sing like and be like.
I also loved the Black Eyed Peas, which seems really strange now, and as I got older, I got into Frank Sinatra and Michael Buble and Lauryn Hill.
So you were studying singers…
Oh yeah. Even Jessie J. I started getting into her music pretty early on, too. I'm a fan of real singers. I just gravitate towards that.
What was the moment you learned to sing as Alessia Cara instead of imitating other people?
The thing is that I always kind of did that. At the time, the big artists around were the pop divas. Everyone wanted to sing like Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey - these big voices who'd sing high, crazy notes. When I tried to do that, it just wouldn't work. So I had to do what I was doing, because I'm not that kind of singer.
Like a lot of aspiring musicians, you started posting cover versions on YouTube. Did you agonise over pressing the "publish" button the first time?
Yes, of course, it was a big step for me. I was so shy as a kid. But that was supposed to be my way of getting my voice out there without having to sing in front of an audience. I wasn't confident in myself and I wasn't sure I could sing. But the positive reaction from my friends and family at first, and then random strangers who were finding my videos, that gave me a lot more confidence.
Your brother filmed a lot of those early videos... You must have trusted him a lot.
He was the only person I would actually sing in front of. I would never, ever sing for my parents. I guess because he was younger at the time and I thought, "He probably can't even tell what I'm doing.'
He even falls over at the end of one of the songs.
That was real! It was so funny. I don't know if he did it on purpose to make me laugh but he was walking and literally collapsed to the floor. I was laughing so hard and so bad.
You didn't play your first proper gig until last year - and that was in Harlem. How nervous were you while you set up your amp and guitar?
I was just like, 'Oh gosh, I hope that they listen!' Because everyone was talking, and they weren't paying attention. But by the end of the second song people were all facing towards me. It was awesome. Some of them even gave me tips afterwards!
And now you're preparing to release your first album. Can we expect more songs along the lines of Here?
The songs I've been playing live - Wild Things, Scars, Too Beautiful and Here - are all in a similar vein conceptually. But sonically I go to different places.
And why is it called Know It All?
It's a sarcastic title. The album is so opinionated about the world - but at the end of the day I really don't understand what I'm doing at all.

The hosts, who beat India in a thrilling final at Lord's, will travel down under in October as they try to regain the Ashes they lost in 2015.
"We have to stay really humble as a team. There's a lot more growth in them and we're not perfect," said Robinson.
Clare Connor, the ECB's director of women's cricket, is determined to ensure the victory is not a "one-off".
Sunday's match, played in front of a sell-out crowd, is thought to have attracted the largest television audience for a women's cricket match - of up to 100 million people.
"The Ashes will be a big test, but we'll go there with momentum and confidence. What would really cap a special year is bringing the Ashes home," said Robinson.
He added the women's game must "capture the moment" but is cautious about talk of further global T20 leagues being established alongside existing competitions in England and Australia.
"It concerns me a little because we want as much contact with the players as we can," said the former Sussex coach.
"We don't play enough international games, so the thought of losing the players to more tournaments doesn't sit right at the moment."
This World Cup represented a huge shift in the exposure given to the women's game.
Four years ago in India, matches were well-watched on TV, but poor attendances at grounds hinted at a lack of a lasting legacy in the host nation.
Now England has staged a successful competition, Connor said it must be built upon.
"We can't miss this opportunity," she told BBC sports editor Dan Roan.
"We've got a wonderful team of amazingly talented, humble young women who have lifted a trophy on home soil in front of 27,000 people in a stadium and goodness knows how many on the screen.
"That gives us an amazing opportunity to cash in that success to secure greater investment, to continue to drive the business case and commercial viability of the sport and continue to invest in the pathway and the talent pool so this can't be a one-off."

England captain Heather Knight said she hoped the success of the World Cup would lead to an increase in international matches.
Before the tournament began in June, England had not played a full one-day international since November.
"Talk of a women's Indian Premier League is exciting, but, first and foremost, we need more internationals," she said.
"Outside of tournaments, we haven't played the likes of Australia and New Zealand for a long time and it is the games against the best opposition that make you better.
"Coming into this competition, we didn't know how we'd go against the bigger sides because we hadn't played them. Luckily it went well, but we'd love to do it more often."
The World Cup represented a personal triumph for Sarah Taylor, who returned after more than a year away from international cricket because of an anxiety-related problem.

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Since opening the doors to his famous Koto - Know One Teach One - restaurant in Hanoi in 2000, he has helped around 400 homeless children to become industrious cooks.
At his non-profit hospitality training centre he has passed on both cooking and life skills.
"I came to Vietnam never wanting to start a project as big as Koto, I just wanted to make a difference," he recalls.
"I look back now and realise that it has given me this incredible joy."
Born in Ho Chi Minh City to a single mum with six children during the Vietnam war, Mr Pham lived in Australia from the age of eight before he returned to his homeland in the early 1990s.
It was there his Koto project was born after he stumbled across a group of children selling coconuts on the streets in 1996.
"I found these street kids carrying coconuts and working 16 hours a day," he explained to the BBC World Service's Outlook programme. "They were living from hand to mouth.
"So I took them and 60 other kids to dinner for the next two weeks."
But it was another three years before the idea for his restaurant first came to fruition.
"At the time I thought I knew better," he admitted. "I gave them fish everyday for that period but then they pulled me aside."
"They said: 'Look we trust you now but you can't keep on looking after us this way. We're going to need a job. We need you to show us how to fish for ourselves'."
From there, his Koto project was launched. Children not only learned how to cook but were taught lessons in life too.
"The first thing you receive is housing and medical checks along with vaccinations," Mr Pham explained.
"You learn about team building and life skills programmes, vocational training and English, which gives you the confidence to meet people."
Interest in his restaurant gathered pace and within months former US President Bill Clinton dropped by for a bite to eat with an entourage of 80 reporters.
So suspicious were the Vietnamese government following Mr Clinton's stop-off that they feared Mr Pham was a member of the CIA.
"I think I was under watch for about three or four years after that," he laughs. "But I'm glad we went through that phase because I've got the green light now to go on and do the wonderful things that Koto is doing."
Mr Pham - a former travel agent in Melbourne - has no formal cooking or hospitality qualifications.
The only culinary skills he possesses he picked up as a boy making doughnuts and selling sandwiches.
"The funny thing is I don't have any hospitality, development or psychology skills," he said. "I'm just someone who is very passionate about what I do and I just want to make a difference."

Looking back, Jimmy Pham admits that despite feeling a sense of achievement, his Koto project has been very difficult to deal with emotionally over the years.
"I've seen visible changes in front of me," he added. "Four hundred kids later, I'm seeing them with their own families and breaking the cycle of poverty which gives me great joy.
"But it has also given me incredible sorrow and sadness because I've seen so much pain caused to a kid."

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | They use LED (light-emitting diode) technology to measure cataracts at a molecular level.
This gives clinicians a better idea of whether patients need to have surgery.
About 10 million cataract removal operations are performed globally each year, and in the UK more than half of people who are over 65 have cataracts in one or both eyes.
In the later stages of cataract formation, patients commonly experience cloudy vision prior to treatment. It is also a recognised complication of Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes.
Heriot-Watt has been working with Edinburgh Biosciences Ltd and experts from Edinburgh University and organisations in Sweden and Denmark to develop the LED technique.
It allows clinicians to monitor a florescence signal from proteins in the eye lens and document changes during cataract formation.
Prof Rory Duncan from Heriot-Watt University said: "Rather than waiting for the condition to appear, it could be possible to diagnose and monitor a cataract before it forms, allowing preventative measures to be taken where possible.
'While this stage is not a cure for cataracts, we believe it could have wide-reaching benefits such as limiting the symptoms experienced by our increasingly-ageing population and those living with diabetes. It could significantly diminish the pressure on our health service."
He added: "We believe that the diagnostic also allows us to determine a patient's 'true age' as opposed to the age on their birth certificate.
"The technology identifies how much oxidative damage lens proteins have accumulated through lifestyle or environmental factors. This accumulated damage may be important in determining risk factors for a number of age-related conditions."
Prof Des Smith, one of the co-founders of the research, said: "This research brings us one step closer to developing a non-invasive treatment for cataracts."
The team will now conduct further studies in pigs to validate the findings, demonstrate safety in humans and explore whether non-invasive treatment is feasible. | Scientists at Heriot-Watt University have developed a new way to diagnose cataracts. |

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | It eventually delivered him the prime ministership. And, although he won three general elections in a row, the dismissal of the Whitlam government that followed the budget impasse haunted Fraser for the rest of his life and overshadowed his political achievements.
During his prime ministership between 1975 and 1983, Fraser was considered patrician, aloof and arrogant, even by some of his supporters. Dubbed the "crazy grazier" by the media and an "Easter Island statue" by Labor opponent and future Labor prime minister Paul Keating, Fraser was a study in contradictions.
He was an economic conservative but a modest social reformer; a Cold War warrior and a fierce opponent of apartheid; a traditionalist with a social conscience he only gave full rein to in his later years.
Rising star
John Malcolm Fraser was born on 21 May 1930, the son of a wealthy Victorian political family. His early years were spent on Nareen Station, his family's pastoral property in western Victoria, followed by schooling at the prestigious Melbourne Grammar and then Oxford University.
He was elected to parliament in 1955 aged just 25, and the following year married Tamara Beggs, eldest daughter of another prominent farming family. By 1966 Fraser was minister for the army in Harold Holt's first government.
A rising star in conservative politics, he had a habit of over-reaching himself and setting a course not always in line with his party. But by 1975 he was opposition leader, confronting the radical and trouble-prone Whitlam government.
Titans of the Australian political scene in more ways than one - Fraser was just shy of Whitlam's 6ft 4in (1.93m) - the two men were key players in Australia's most controversial political moment: a constitutional crisis that led to Whitlam's dismissal by Australia's governor-general in November 1975.
As leader of the opposition Fraser blocked Whitlam's budget, forcing Governor-General Sir John Kerr to dismiss Whitlam as prime minister.
The country was shocked. Protest strikes and violent demonstrations followed.
In what became one of the most famous of Australian political speeches, from the steps of Parliament House in 1975, Whitlam said Fraser would "go down in Australian history from Remembrance Day 1975 as Kerr's cur".
But the Australian public wanted a steady hand after the rapid pace of Whitlam's reforms, and voted in Fraser's team in the largest win of any Australian federal election at that time.
In office, Fraser faced a post-war economic slowdown marred by stagflation, and the emergence of the so-called baby boomers who had more in common with Whitlam's progressive views on issues such as abortion, and who did not favour cuts to the public service.
Fraser focussed on trying to cut both government expenditure and taxation.
Away from the economic front, he increased the number of immigrants entering Australia, accepted Vietnamese refugees into the country - many of them arriving by boat - and promoted the concept of multiculturalism.
It was this last policy that years later, he maintained, was his government's finest legacy because of the way it helped build a cohesive community.
Refugee champion
Since the 1960s, governments had started to dismantle Australia's notorious White Australia Policy, which discriminated against non-European immigrants. Whitlam introduced legislation that allowed all migrants, regardless of origin, to be granted citizenship after three years of permanent residence.
However, the number and percentage of migrants from non-European countries didn't increase until after Fraser came to office. From 1975 to 1982, some 200,000 migrants arrived from Asia, including nearly 56,000 Vietnamese refugees.
Treatment of refugees was one of a number of issues in which Fraser clashed with his Liberal successor John Howard and others in the party. He criticised Howard's tough stance on asylum seekers and opposed Australia's involvement in the Iraq war.
Four months before his death, in a speech he gave at the opening of an asylum-seeker resource centre, Fraser said Australia's name had been damaged around the world because of the tough treatment meted out to asylum seekers by successive Australian governments.
"We are known as the most inhumane, the most uncaring, the most selfish of all the wealthy countries. It used not to be that way," he said.
It was views such as these that made Fraser in his later years more popular with the left than the right side of politics. His departure from the conservative fold seemed complete when he resigned from the Liberal Party in 2010.
The reaction to his death by people who would once have been considered his political enemies showed how much Fraser and the public perception of him had changed over the years.
New South Wales Labor senator and outspoken union leader Doug Cameron said he was "devastated" that Australia had lost a great voice for human rights, while Leader of the Australian Greens Christine Milne said one of Fraser's hallmarks was his "compassion and dedication to building a thriving and peaceful multicultural society". | Malcolm Fraser's decision in 1975 to block Australian Prime Minister Gough Whitlam's budget was the ultimate in brinkmanship. |

"The lads called me Polyfilla after all the positions I've had to fill in this season," he joked. "God knows what position I'm going to play in next season."
He ended up making 37 appearances, latterly as a makeshift centre-half, alongside his former Albion team-mate Curtis Davies.
"I knew Curt from our days at West Brom together," said Robinson. "He's a fantastic player. It could be tough to keep him this summer."
Robinson's consistent form over the final two months of the campaign was enough to persuade Blues boss Lee Clark that he could release another release another experienced defender, former skipper Gary Caldwell, at the end of the season.
Allied to his dressing room presence, he played a big part in Blues climbing away from the wrong end of the Championship to even briefly flirt as outside play-off contenders before an ultimately respectable top-half finish.
And the work he has done in helping young Mitch Hancox along has hinted at a role on the touchline when his playing days finally come to an end.
"I'm doing my badges at the moment," said Robinson. "When the time is right, I'll be looking for a club to take me on the coaching side."
He becomes the fifth of Blues' out-of-contract players to sign a new deal.
Blues are still waiting on a similar offer to another 34-year-old, midfielder Wade Elliott, born on the same day as Robinson in December 1978.
Defender Jonathan Spector and keeper Colin Doyle, both 27, have been offered two-year contracts.
Scottish winger Chris Burke, 29, has taken up his year's option, while youngsters Akwasi Asante, Amari'i Bell and Will Packwood have all signed new one-year contracts. | Veteran Birmingham City defender Paul Robinson has signed a new 12-month contract, with the option of another year in the club's favour. |

Irish UFC lightweight champion McGregor, 29, will make his boxing debut when he faces undefeated American Mayweather on 26 August in Las Vegas.
"There is tremendous build-up and hype but I don't really take it as a serious fight," Briton Lewis told Sportsweek.
He added that "nothing is ever obvious when it comes to gimmicks and hype" but "Mayweather should win it".
Mayweather, 40, will surpass fellow American Rocky Marciano's perfect record of 49 fights without defeat should he overcome McGregor.
But Lewis told BBC Radio 5 live: "I wouldn't count a fight like this as a 'fight'. He's basically boxing a guy that is a UFC fighter and not a boxer.
He added: "Everybody wants to know what's going to happen.
"Is McGregor going to throw a kick because, obviously when he resorts to boxing and realises he is no match for Mayweather, what will he do? How will he get around that?
"No other boxers from 49 fights have figured out how to beat Mayweather - now a UFC fighter that doesn't even have a boxing career is trying to beat him at boxing - I think it's a farce to a certain degree.
"I don't think it is a fight that I am going to jump on a plane and go to see unless they pay me to commentate on it."

BBC Radio 5 live boxing analyst Steve Bunce:
It's going to be a relentless week. Too many people are treating it like a comedy carnival. On the night I think it will be a lot more serious than people think. I think the laughter will stop in Las Vegas, probably around Wednesday.
McGregor is a guy who was nowhere four years ago. Now he can earn hundreds of millions of dollars. He got there because he is absolutely driven. I've seen his fights, I think he likes hurting people. So there will be dark undertones next week. Anyone who thinks Mayweather doesn't have a nasty, dark side has been living in a cave for 30 years.
I believe McGregor has picked up a lot from Mayweather. If you are skint like he was five or six years ago and you are seeing a guy like Mayweather who has been making it rain throwing dollar bills in the air, of course he is copying that. He has wanted a bit of that. I can imagine McGregor before he goes to bed at night doing a few Mayweather moves in the mirror. | Floyd Mayweather's fight against Conor McGregor is a farce, says former world heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis. |
Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | The central government has declared a state of emergency in the region, and has appealed for international aid.
Thousands of livestock have also died and hundreds of homes have been destroyed by the cyclone, known as 03A.
The cyclone has subsided, but officials say heavy rains are still expected.
Puntland is a semi-autonomous region within Somalia and a large part of its population relies on livestock herding and fishing.
The tropical cyclone swept through the Eyl, Beyla, Dangorayo and Hafun districts along the east coast and across to Alula on the tip of the Horn of Africa.
"So far we have confirmed the storm killed 140 people. We are afraid the death toll may reach 300 because many people are still missing," Puntland's Interior Minister Abdullahi Ahmed told Reuters news agency.
A government statement said Puntland's security forces had failed to transport 60 tonnes of aid to affected communities because heavy flooding had made many dirt roads to the worst-affected areas impassable.
"The storm has destroyed entire villages, homes, buildings and boats," the statement added.
Makeshift shelters had been built to accommodate displaced people, it said.
The government has appealed to international aid agencies to help with air-drops of relief supplies, including clean water, non-perishable food, tents, blankets and medicines.
Ten doctors and two ambulances were attending to people in need of medical treatment, the statement said.
On Tuesday, Somalia's government pledged $1m (??628,000) to help communities devastated by the cyclone.
The central government "shared the pain" of communities, Prime Minister Abdi Farah Shirdon said. | A cyclone that hit Somalia's north-eastern Puntland region at the weekend is known to have killed 140 people, and the number could rise to 300, a government minister has said. |
Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | It is one of only two left in the world to have been restored to its original specification and is airworthy.
The fighter, based at Imperial War Museum Duxford, Cambridgeshire, could fetch up to £2.5m at auction in July.
Proceeds will go to the RAF Benevolent Fund and Oxford University's Wildlife Conservation Research Unit.
The Mk I Vickers Supermarine Spitfire was originally piloted by Old Etonian Flying Officer Peter Cazenove during the evacuation of Dunkirk.
Despite radioing-in to say "Tell mother I'll be home for tea," he was shot down on 24 May 1940, crashed on the Calais coast and was captured.
He ended up in the Stulag Luft III prisoner of war camp, where British airmen launched their famous Great Escape in 1944.
But despite failing to escape, he survived and returned to the UK after the war.
The plane remained hidden in the sandy beach of Calais until the 1980s when strong tides exposed the wreckage.
However, it was not until the parts were bought by an American collector and shipped to the UK that the mammoth task of restoring it began at the former home of RAF Duxford.
Now the Spitfire has been returned to its original glory and is going under the hammer at Christie's in London on 9 July.
John Romain, chief engineer at the Aircraft Restoration Company, which undertook the project, said: "It came to us quite literally in boxes of parts that had been removed from the beach in France.
"We spent five years restoring it back to its original state.
"This one is particularly special. It is very unusual to see a Spitfire like this go to auction." | A rare RAF Spitfire once flown by a Great Escape veteran and painstakingly restored over five years could fetch millions of pounds for charity. |

Ding trailed 4-1 in the best-of-nine-frames match when he made his clearance, but world number three Robertson recovered to win 5-2.
"The reds were looking good so I went for it," Ding told BBC Radio 5 live.
"It's just a 147, a new record for me. I like to beat the records every time I play in the tournaments."
Robertson, who made a 140 break in the third frame, praised his opponent saying: "What a wonderful break.
"He was clearly determined because he went for a risky shot in the forties."
Ronnie O'Sullivan turned down the chance to make a 147 break in the first round because the £10,000 prize money was "too cheap", making 146 after choosing the pink over a black.
The £10,000, which is boosted by £2,000 on offer for the highest break of the tournament, is a rolling prize fund at ranking events.
O'Sullivan thrashed world number one Mark Selby 5-1 in his quarter-final on Friday, and insisted he had been trying for a 147 when an opportunity arose.
"I thought 'he's let the lads down, hasn't he?' O'Sullivan joked when asked about Ding's maximum.
"Ding got it. Fantastic, at least they've had a 147 this week - and a 146. But I was going for it, 100%. There's obviously pressure and I twitched on the black."
Despite making headlines for his decision to ignore a possible 147 earlier in the week, O'Sullivan added: "I think I've done brilliant for this tournament.
"Most people are saying they didn't actually know this event was on. I've created such good headlines - if you had to go and buy them headlines, it would probably cost you a few quid.
"They've had the best of both worlds. They've had a maximum from Ding, they've had the headlines from me this week, so I think I've given great value for money."
After losing only one frame against Selby, a relaxed O'Sullivan said he was in the mood to "go for everything" and entertain the crowd.
"That's exactly what I was thinking, it's good practice for the exhibitions," said the Englishman. "If you start to think of it like a match you can start to not enjoy it.
"It's not really that important. Although it's nice to win and you want to do well, don't get me wrong."
O'Sullivan goes on to face compatriot Joe Perry, who beat Ben Woollaston 5-1, while Robertson will play Northern Ireland's Mark Allen, who beat Michael White 5-0. | China's Ding Junhui made a maximum 147 break in the quarter-final of the Welsh Open in Cardiff but could not beat Australian Neil Robertson. |
Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Coursera, with 17 million registered students and free online courses from 140 universities, wants to be part of India's drive to expand access to higher education.
This Californian company is one of the trailblazers of the so-called Moocs (massive open online courses) which run courses for students studying at home, but usually without accredited degrees.
At present only about 12% of young people in India get university places - and Rick Levin, Coursera's chief executive officer, says there are an "awful lot of talented people" who "don't make the cut".
What makes this an even bigger opportunity for online providers is that the Indian government has a target to increase university enrolment by 30% by 2030.
Dr Levin says this is "hugely ambitious" and then qualifies it further as "frankly almost impossible" if such an expansion were to depend on building new bricks and mortar universities.
It would mean establishing "literally a couple of thousand universities" as well as expanding the existing institutions, he says.
Instead Dr Levin, a former president of Yale University, believes it will be online courses that will fill the gap and widen access to university for India's ambitious youngsters.
Coursera already has 1.3 million students in India, the biggest concentration of online students outside the US and China.
Dr Levin says that the 10 most popular courses for these online students are all related to information technology or data science.
And India's burgeoning software industry will mean a growing demand for skilled workers.
More stories from the BBC's Knowledge economy series looking at education from a global perspective and how to get in touch
At the moment he says India's higher education system, with its elite, highly-selective institutions, does not have the capacity to meet the aspirations of a young and talented generation.
"The economic opportunity is great and there are an awful lot of bright people who don't get the benefit of an education their potential deserves," he says.
Coursera offers free online courses from universities including Yale, Stanford, Columbia and Edinburgh.
But they do not lead to an external exam or an accredited degree.
And the long-anticipated next step has been when such universities will use the Mooc model to offer fully-fledged online degrees.
Dr Levin says this is the longer-term direction of travel.
But more immediately, particularly in places such as India, he says the most valuable kind of recognition is from employers, when they accept online Mooc courses as relevant for job applications.
"That's a hurdle that doesn't require accreditation, it's a marketplace recognition. That's going to move faster than any accreditation process, it's market driven not bureaucratic."
When Moocs first appeared a few years ago they were hailed as a revolution in higher education, promising the kind of impact the internet had brought to retail and entertainment.
Dr Levin says that as an economist he recognised the "cycle of hype" surrounding Moocs.
Likening it to the current interest in self-driving cars, he says there were exaggerated expectations that they would "change the world immediately".
But he says it should not have been a surprise to anyone that "500-year-old institutions didn't just roll over and die".
"What's really happening is something socially valuable - we're closing the skills gap, giving people an opportunity."
Coursera will have plenty of competition to attract India's students.
Traditional campus-based universities in the US have been attracting rapidly rising numbers of Indian students, up by almost 30% last year and second only to China.
This is a tough market and figures for UK universities last week showed the fourth consecutive annual fall in students coming from India, with less than half the number of students compared with 2010-11.
But the UK's distance learning university, the Open University, has ambitions to increase its reach in India.
The approach is not to offer courses directly, but to work with local institutions and support courses accredited by Indian universities.
"They will deliver their own local qualifications," but with content and online teaching resources provided by the Open University, says director of external engagement Steve Hill.
"It would be wrong for a foreign university to say we're here to solve your problems, we're going to set up a campus and we're going to offer our qualifications," he adds.
This approach of working with local partners has reached 200,000 students in China, says Mr Hill and the Open University hopes to reach similar numbers in India.
Mr Hill also sees distance learning as a practical way for India to reach its target for another 14 million university places in less than 15 years.
The Indian higher education sector could not realistically expand that quickly in terms of traditional universities, he says.
And even if overseas universities were allowed to open campuses in India, it would be a risky financial model and would be limited in how many students could be reached.
"The only way it is going to reach its target is online. India has to embrace distance learning," says Mr Hill.
At present, India has 3.5 million students on distance learning degrees and the OU chief executive argues that this is going to have to increase significantly.
A recent report from the British Council forecast that by 2025 India will have the biggest student-age population in the world. It means a decade of even more intense competition from international universities for a share of this expanding market. | India, with its huge education-hungry population, is the prime target of one of the world's biggest online university providers. |
Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Xylella fastidiosa, spread by insects, was found at Propriano in southern Corsica. The bacterium can also attack citrus trees and vineyards.
France has destroyed plants around the infected bush found in Propriano.
Xylella is one of the biggest disease threats to plants worldwide, the European Commission says.
There is no effective treatment for infected plants and new Commission regulations say the only solution is to destroy them and establish Xylella-free buffer zones around them.
Corsica - a Mediterranean island near Italy - has a small olive oil industry, with about 500 employees and more than 2,000ha (4,940 acres) of trees.
But the bacterium is a threat to about 300 plant species. It was first detected on the island last week.
On Wednesday France's Agriculture Minister Stephane Le Foll visited Propriano and pledged "a total commitment" to isolating the outbreak.
French authorities suspect that the bacterium arrived via a ferry from the nearby Italian island of Sardinia.
French health inspectors are checking ferry passengers arriving at the small Corsican port of Bonifacio, in an effort to prevent any further Xylella contamination.
Xylella has previously ravaged vineyards in California and citrus groves in Brazil. The disease kills plants by dehydration, as it blocks the delivery of sap in the xylem tissue.
The EU Commission says the bacterium found in Italy is believed to be a new genetic variant, "for which the range of host plants is still unclear". It is being spread by the meadow froghopper bug, which feeds on the sap of olive trees.
In Puglia, southern Italy, thousands of hectares of olives are blighted by Xylella. It is being treated as a natural disaster, as Italy is the EU's second biggest olive oil producer after Spain.
The EU tightened measures to contain the Xylella threat in May. They include a ban on all imports of coffee plants from Costa Rica or Honduras, though coffee seeds can still be imported.
The updated EU rules say Xylella has been detected in numerous coffee plants imported from the two Central American states.
The EU ordered Italy to demarcate the whole of Lecce province as an infected zone and create a 10km (six-mile) buffer zone around it. Lecce is the southernmost province in the Puglia region. | A bacterial infection ravaging olive trees in the far south of Italy has spread to Corsica, where emergency measures are being implemented. |
Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | The Scottish government has given the all clear for the project at Glenmuckloch near Kirkconnel.
It will require hundreds of workers during the construction phase and create up to 15 permanent jobs in the longer term.
Dumfries and Galloway Council gave its backing to the Pumped Storage Hydro (PSH) project earlier this year.
PSH works by releasing water from a higher waterbody to a lower one and passing it through a turbine or series of turbines to generate electricity.
Water is then pumped back up the hill and stored in the upper reservoir until further electricity is required.
Economy Secretary Keith Brown said: "The Scottish government believes there is a huge opportunity around PSH.
"This tried and tested technology can support peak demand and effectively store greater levels of electricity at times when renewable energy output is high but demand is low."
The scheme - led by Buccleuch Estates and 2020 Renewables - has an operational capacity of up to 400MW.
Developers have said the £150m scheme could generate power for more than a century but will need "major financial investment" from other partners to proceed.
The construction phase is expected to last about six years and is part of wider renewable energy park plans on the site.
Scottish Renewables policy manager Hannah Smith said: "The Glenmuckloch development is a perfect example of how green energy projects can make use of the infrastructure of the past and rejuvenate the local economy. PSH allows excess energy generated throughout the day to be stored and used when it's needed. It is vital that the UK government works to recognise the potential of this technology if we are to realise these benefits across the country."
Alan Baker, managing director of 2020 Renewables, said: "Pumped storage brings considerable benefits to the country's energy system. Major pumped storage schemes already exist in Scotland - for example at Foyers and Cruachan - but no new projects have been built in over 30 years. The challenge is in finding the package of support measures which will unlock private investment in the project."
John Glen, chief executive officer of Buccleuch, said: "For five years we have been working closely with the local community and Hargreaves Surface Mining to restore and transform the site. Our vision is to create an energy park that will support local jobs and deliver major new investment in Dumfries and Galloway, and that has taken a step forward today."
MP for Dumfriesshire, Clydesdale and Tweeddale David Mundell said: "This is a very welcome announcement for the communities of Upper Nithsdale where I am always pushing for investment to help boost the local economy. Buccleuch and 2020's plans for a major development will help sustain jobs in the region and I am very excited to see how the project progresses."
Dumfries and Galloway Councillor Colin Smyth said: "As part of our commitment to build the local economy, our council has identified Upper Nithsdale as a key regeneration area where we want to encourage investment that will create jobs. This development does just that by offering exciting job opportunities, which is so important for Upper Nithsdale. It also delivers a sustainable and environmentally friendly energy solution so it's a win-win situation for the area." | A hydro energy scheme at an opencast coal mine site in southern Scotland has been approved. |

Nizakat Khan's superb 123 held up Ireland as he shared a ninth-wicket stand of 61 with Nadeem Ahmed.
However, with the score on 239, Peter Chase trapped Ahmed and Khan was then dismissed by Tim Murtagh.
Middlesex seamer Murtagh was the pick of Ireland's bowlers on the final day as his closing dismissal, with Ed Joyce taking a simple catch, brought impressive figures of 4-29.
George Dockrell and Kevin O'Brien chipped in with two wickets apiece but the Ireland attack laboured for most of the final afternoon as Khan and Ahmed looked comfortable during their 61-run partnership.
Earlier, a quick victory looked on the cards as Murtagh's first two wickets and O'Brien's dismissals left Hong Kong on 114-5 before they slipped 147-7.
Ireland were able to add only 31 runs for the loss of their final four wickets at the start of the day as O'Brien finished unbeaten on 16.

Chilly, even.
Now, the Prime Minister won't worry too much about that.
Yes, she wants to send a message that Britain is open for business and wants a mutually profitable relationship with the European Union. Even if many leaders of the EU are not sure that is actually possible.
But she also wants to send another message back to the UK: I'm visiting the home of the global elites, maybe, but I'm here to warn businesses, not simply celebrate them.
The PM said she backed globalisation and free trade, although not at any cost. And certainly not at the cost of those that feel the rich "play by a different set of rules" - pointing out that trust in business among those on lower incomes languishes at 35%.
Business leaders I spoke to after her speech know that Mrs May is not a fundamentalist when it comes to free markets. Yes, they work, but they need to be controlled.
One cabinet minister told me recently, that the PM was very comfortable with the "interventionist" tag.
We will hear more about that when Mrs May announces the government's industrial strategy next week.
One chief executive of a global resources business worth many billions of pounds said that there was an understanding that the PM had been dealt "a pretty tough hand". An exit from the EU she did not back. And the rise of a new and questioning culture of the very tenets of the globalised economic order built since the collapse of communism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe.

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Judge Jeffrey Sutton of the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals wrote definitions of marriage should not be changed by the courts.
The 2-1 decision is the first at the appeals court level in favour of gay marriage opponents.
It affects Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and Tennessee.
In recent months, four other appeals courts have struck down state bans on same-sex marriage, ruling they violated the US constitution's guarantee of equal protection under the law.
Last month, the US Supreme Court declined to hear challenges against those decisions, effectively ratifying them and leading to same-sex nuptials in several more states.
But the high court did not make its own ruling on the matter, in large part because at the time there was no dispute among the appeals courts.
Gay marriage is now legal in 32 states and in Washington DC.
On Tuesday, Judge Sutton and Judge Deborah Cook upheld the four state bans, arguing in their opinion that states had the right to set their own rules for marriage.
"Surely the people should receive some deference in deciding when the time is ripe to move from one picture of marriage to another," Judge Sutton wrote, adding the plaintiffs had not convinced the majority it should be the court's responsibility to intervene.
While the ruling said "gay couples, no less than straight couples, are capable of raising children and providing stable families for them" the judges argued marriages had been created an as "incentive for two people who procreate together to stay together for purposes of rearing offspring" and was "still relevant".
Judge Sutton also argued a constitutional right to same-sex marriage could be used in support of legalised polygamy.
"If it is constitutionally irrational to stand by the man-woman definition of marriage, it must be constitutionally irrational to stand by the monogamous definition of marriage," he wrote.
In a sharp dissent, Judge Martha Craig Daugherty wrote, "the author of the majority opinion has drafted what would make an engrossing TED Talk or, possibly, an introductory lecture in political philosophy.
"But as an appellate court decision, it wholly fails to grapple with the relevant constitutional question in this appeal."
Judge Daugherty suggested the majority had deliberately upheld the ban in order to force the Supreme Court to take up the matter.
"Because the correct result is so obvious, one is tempted to speculate that the majority has purposefully taken the contrary position to create the circuit split," she wrote, adding a Supreme Court ruling would put "an end to the uncertainty of status and the interstate chaos that the current discrepancy in state laws threaten".
In a statement, Evan Wolfson, president of pro-gay marriage group Freedom to Marry, said the decision was out of step with the majority of Americans.
"This anomalous ruling won't stand the test of time or appeal," Mr Wolfson said.

"They were fantastic, especially after going behind," McIntyre said. "That tests your mettle after such a high.
"You can feel sorry for yourselves but the work-rate was exceptional."
McIntyre singled out forward Michael Gardyne, who scored the opening goal in County's 2-1 victory over Hibs at Hampden, for special praise.
"I thought Michael was exceptional again," he told BBC Scotland. "He was running on empty towards the end, after the special game he had on Sunday, but it was another big game from him tonight.

Wales physiotherapist Connolly is also part of Crystal Palace's medical team and has helped Ledley's rehabilitation since he suffered the injury against Stoke City on 7 May.
The former Cardiff City player came on in the second half against Slovakia and played a part in Hal Robson-Kanu's winning goal.
Ledley's Crystal Palace team-mate and room-mate Wayne Hennessey missed the game in Bordeaux after suffering a back spasm and was replaced by Liverpool goalkeeper Danny Ward.
Hennessey missed training on Monday but Ledley is hopeful the 29-year-old will recover in time to face England in Lens on Thursday.
"Everyone was gutted for him because he deserves to be playing," Ledley said.
"But these last few hours he's moving about and hopefully in the next 24 hours he can get on the training pitch.
"He's worked so hard and been in fantastic form for Palace." | Wales midfielder Joe Ledley says an oxygen chamber, dawn rises and physio Sean Connolly got him to Euro 2016. |
Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Joko Widodo made the comments in an interview with CNN to mark his first 100 days in power.
He said the policy also applied to two Australians on death row in Indonesia - Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran - who have had appeals for clemency rejected.
Five foreigners and one Indonesian were executed by firing squad last week.
Indonesia has some of the toughest drug laws in the world. It ended a four-year moratorium on executions in 2013.
Joko Widodo has always insisted he will show no mercy towards drug criminals, saying they have ruined lives.
When asked by CNN why he was standing firm despite protests from countries around the world he said: "Imagine every day we have 50 people die because of narcotics, of drugs.
"In one year, it's 18,000 people who die because of narcotics.
"We are not going to compromise for drug dealers. No compromise. No compromise," he added.
He said it was up to the courts to hand down death sentences and said while convicts could still appeal to him "there will be no amnesty".
Australia opposes the death penalty and its government has repeatedly campaigned on behalf of Chan and Sukumaran. They were in a group of nine Australians arrested in Bali in 2005 with more than 8.3kg (18lb) of heroin.
Chan and Sukumaran have already had their final pleas for clemency rejected by the president's office.
When asked specifically if there would be relief for the Australians, Mr Widodo shook his head.
Last week, Indonesia executed convicts from Malawi, Nigeria, Vietnam, Brazil and the Netherlands as well as one from Indonesia.
It prompted Brazil and the Netherlands to recall their ambassadors in protest.

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Robinson, who began his career at Leeds in 1998 and also played for Tottenham and Blackburn, was capped 41 times for his country.
He joined Burnley in January 2016, making three Premier League appearances last season as cover for Tom Heaton.
Robinson, who made 498 club appearances, decided to retire after the recurrence of a back problem.
"My back problem returned towards the end of last season and has prevented me being ready for the start of the new season," he said.
"I have been very lucky to play for four very special football clubs and my country."
Robinson was the England keeper at the 2006 World Cup in Germany, keeping four clean sheets in five games including the goalless quarter-final which Portugal won on penalties.
But he paid the price for costly errors as England failed to reach Euro 2008, most famously failing to connect with a Gary Neville back pass which resulted in an own goal in the 2-0 defeat in Croatia.
Robinson finally retired from international football in August 2011. | Burnley's former England goalkeeper Paul Robinson has announced his retirement at the age of 37. |
Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Bill Rammell, a former higher education minister, says it would be fairer and more efficient than predicting grades.
He says there is already a growing trend for students to apply for the first time during clearing.
But Universities UK has rejected suggestions there will be any "chaotic scramble" for places this year.
A-level results in England, Wales and Northern Ireland are to be published on Thursday, with a record 655,000 applicants waiting to find out about university places.
Mr Rammell, vice-chancellor of the University of Bedfordshire, says there should be a longer-term aim to move to a system of applying after students know their results - so-called "post-qualification application" - rather than the current system of relying on predicted grades to receive conditional offers.
"If you started afresh you wouldn't have this elaborate system of predicted grades," he said.
But in the shorter term Mr Rammell says there are growing pressures from students which are already pushing the system towards post-qualifications applications.
He says that at his university he has already seen a growing number of students applying for the first time during clearing once they know their A-level results, rather than by the initial mid-January deadline.
Students are able to begin applications during clearing, which also provides a back-up system for those who missed out on their required grades.
Research from the admissions service, Ucas, has shown that about half of A-level grades predicted by teachers are incorrect.
Although a formal switch to a post-results system might not be imminent, he says the pressure of students who are applying late will "effectively push it in that direction".
As a higher-education minister under the Labour administration, Mr Rammell said he had been a "strong advocate" of the admissions system being moved.
If students knew their grades when applying it would be simpler, he says, and he believes the current system based on predictions is more likely to work against poorer students.
Mr Rammell says there had been "conservative forces" opposed to such a change, which could mean alterations to the timing of the exam system or the start of the autumn university term.
He says the major change in admissions in recent years has been that students, with their tuition fee, have a much stronger position in looking for places.
In the past, he says universities were choosing students, now it was much more a case of students choosing where they would like to study.
But he warns against the use of "retail gimmicks" to attract students and argues that recruitment should be based on offering a better student experience.
Nicola Dandridge, chief executive of Universities UK, says universities are ready to handle record numbers of applications this week, with the limit on places removed this year.
"Despite the annual predictions that there will be a chaotic scramble for places, universities are, as always, prepared for the busy undergraduate admissions period," said Ms Dandridge.
And she said it was important that the clearing process, used by 61,000 students last year, should not be seen as a "second-best option".
Ucas says that clearing provides a route for those who want to apply after they get exam results.
And the admissions service suggests consultation on this had found "significant practical challenges" in implementing an admissions process after A-level results. | The university admissions system should be switched so applications are made after students know their exam results, says a university vice-chancellor. |

All are available when the Rams face Newcastle United in the Championship at home on Saturday.
"We talked about the implications of missing out on opportunities to gain promotion so personalities have a big impact," Pearson told BBC Radio Derby.
"You also get players who want fresh starts so they bring positive aspects into a dressing room that has qualities already.
"The idea of bringing in new players was two-fold - to freshen up the dressing room, which is something I have been mindful of, and also to compliment what we already have."
Pearson reluctantly allowed Jeff Hendrick to join Premier League side Burnley, while Chris Martin left on a loan deal to Fulham.
"Jeff is a player I was not overly keen on losing but the player made it clear he wanted to leave," said Pearson, whose side are 18th in the table and have scored only one goal in their five league games.
"It's never easy allow players who have great potential to go but the driving force was Jeff and the fee that was agreed gives us a very good return."
Although happy with his side's business, former Leicester manager Pearson described the summer transfer window as an "absolute nonsense".
He added: "The final week becomes a bit of a circus. It's farcical that even the biggest clubs in the world get sucked in to what has become a sideshow - or bigger than a sideshow and what has now become a huge part of the industry.
"I don't see that transfer windows are healthy being in place when the season is already started." | Derby County boss Nigel Pearson says it was vital to "freshen up" the dressing room during the summer transfer window. |
Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Mainland women will be prevented from giving birth in Hong Kong unless they have a Hong Kong husband.
While the proposal would only apply to public hospitals, private hospitals have also agreed to follow suit.
Increasing "birth tourism" from the mainland has caused tensions.
Soaring numbers of mainland women have sought to give birth in Hong Kong to ensure that their child receives Hong Kong citizenship.
Almost half of all babies born in Hong Kong in 2010 were the children of mainland couples, according to government figures.
The "zero quota" proposals were made by Chief Executive-elect CY Leung, who takes office on 1 July.
Under the proposals, pregnant women from mainland China will not be eligible for obstetrics services from next year, unless their husband is from Hong Kong.
Furthermore, children born to mainland parents will not be guaranteed residency unless one of their parents is a Hong Kong resident.
The new proposals are likely to be popular in Hong Kong, whose residents have said that "birth tourism" from mainland China has strained resources and put lives at risk.
Ethnic Chinese babies born in Hong Kong currently automatically receive the right to live and work there, as well as the right to carry a Hong Kong passport, which makes international travel easier.
Some mainlanders also choose to give birth in Hong Kong to skirt the one-child policy, which can result in heavy fines for violators.
Mr Leung, who was elected with the weakest mandate of any chief executive to date, has been trying to rally political support with populist policies, says the BBC's Hong Kong correspondent Juliana Liu.
The Hong Kong government has already imposed quotas on the number of mainland mothers allowed to give birth in local hospitals, but residents say the quotas do not go far enough.
Alan Lau, head of Hong Kong's Private Hospitals Association, told the BBC that its members felt they had no choice but to comply with Mr Leung's wishes.
He confirmed that the hospitals would stop taking bookings from mainland mothers from 2013.
Many private hospital chiefs had initially opposed the proposals, citing financial and ethical issues.
Hong Kong has seen a surge in anti-China sentiment in recent months, due to resentment over "birth tourism" and claims that tourists from mainland China get preferential treatment. | Hong Kong hospitals will limit maternity services to most pregnant women from mainland China from next year, under new proposals from its incoming chief executive. |
Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Lise Grande told the BBC residents were in grave danger as so-called Islamic State (IS) was directly targeting families.
Many people in the city are already facing severe shortages of water and electricity.
Iraqi forces said they made gains in a new assault on IS there on Saturday.
Troops say they made progress in a few hours as they tried to drive the militants out of the last remaining strongholds they still control in Mosul's Old City.
Hundreds of thousands of civilians have fled the northern city since the offensive to reclaim it was launched in October last year.
Ms Grande said that the next part of the assault was going to be the hardest.
"...Civilians are going to be at the most extreme risk they have been during the entire campaign," she said.
"We know that ISIL [IS] is directly targeting families as they try to escape, we know that there are very limited stocks of food and medicines, we know that there are severe shortages of water and electricity.
"All of the evidence points to the fact that the civilians who are trapped in these neighbourhoods and districts are in grave danger."
The government announced the recapture of eastern Mosul in January but the fight for complete control of the western half continues.
Thousands of Iraqi security forces, Kurdish Peshmerga fighters, Sunni Arab tribesmen and Shia militiamen, assisted by US-led coalition warplanes and military advisers, are involved in the offensive.
Earlier this month, coalition officials estimated the number of militants in Mosul to be fewer than 1,000 - compared with 3,500 to 6,000 militants in and around the city before the offensive began last October.
The UN has said the battle has left more than 8,000 civilians dead or wounded, but that figure only comprises people transferred to medical facilities.
Iraq's military does not release casualty figures, but US Gen Joseph Votel told a Congressional hearing at the end of March that at least 774 Iraqi security personnel had been killed and 4,600 wounded.
More than 580,000 civilians have also been displaced by the fighting, among them 419,000 from western Mosul, the Iraqi authorities say. | Civilians are being hit hardest as Iraq's military assault on Mosul enters its final phase, the country's UN humanitarian relief co-ordinator says. |

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | It is a significant escalation in the ongoing legal battle between HP and Autonomy.
A spokesman representing Mr Lynch called the comments a "personal smear".
HP paid $11.1bn (£6.8bn) for Autonomy but a year later said it was worth $8.8bn less.
The deal was the biggest ever takeover of a British technology firm.
HP and its shareholders have been fighting a legal battle accusing Autonomy of misleading them over the true value of the company.
The latest court document HP also singles out Sushovan Hussain, who was the chief financial officer at Autonomy from 2001 to 2012, saying he was "one of the chief architects of the massive fraud on HP".
The San Francisco court filing also said that shareholders and HP management agree "that [Mr] Hussain, along with Autonomy's founder and CEO, Michael Lynch, should be accountable for this fraud".
Shareholders had planned to sue HP's management over the botched takeover of Autonomy, but this latest filing confirms they have dropped their claims against the company and will "assist HP in pursuing the perpetrators of the fraud, who inflicted billions of dollars of harm on the company".
A spokesperson representing Mr Lynch and Mr Hussain responded with a sharply worded statement of their own: "This breathless ranting from HP is the sort of personal smear we've come to expect. As the emotional outbursts go up, the access to facts seems to go down."
Analysis: Rory Cellan-Jones, BBC Technology Correspondent
Autonomy was one of the jewels in the crown of the British technology industry, a business based on the expertise of some of the brightest minds to have emerged from Cambridge University.
It may not have been a household name, but it was in the FTSE 100, it sponsored Spurs and its chief executive Mike Lynch was one of the great and good, a non-executive director of the BBC, on the board of the British Library and an advisor on scientific policy to the Prime Minister.
What seems evident is that HP was so determined to get its hands on Autonomy and its enterprise search technology that the directors and their advisors did not look closely enough at the underlying value of the company.
What is far from clear amidst the claim and counter claim is whether Autonomy did break any accounting rules in the run up to its sale to HP - and if so, why that was not spotted in the process of due diligence which is a key part of any such deal.
But the stage is set for a lengthy battle in the courts on both sides of the Atlantic, with HP obviously hoping that regulatory authorities step in to back up its claims.
More than a year ago, the UK's accounting regulator, the Financial Reporting Council, (FRC) began an investigation into Autonomy's reporting for the accounting period of January 2009 to June 2011, before it was bought by the US firm HP.
That is still under way.
The UK's Serious Fraud Office and the US Department of Justice are also investigating.
Autonomy said at the time it was "fully confident in the financial reporting of the company".
The HP board members that championed the takeover have since left the company.

Koushik Chatterjee, group executive for Tata Steel in Europe, said Tata was looking at alternatives for its European operations.
In March, Tata Steel said it intended to sell all or part of its UK business.
It employs more than 4,000 workers at its plant in Port Talbot in Wales, and over 2,000 more at its speciality businesses in Hartlepool, Rotherham and Stocksbridge.
On Friday, Tata Steel said the sale of its UK business was on hold as the company considered a European tie-up.
"Today we are looking at more options," Mr Chatterjee told the BBC.
"If there are better options for the business, I think we will go for that, if there aren't we will have to review the current bids that have come in and take a final view."
He said competitiveness would determine whether plants managed to survive, and that dealing with the company's pension liabilities would be important in deciding whether the UK's operations would be part of the business in future.
He added that agreements with the UK and Welsh governments, and with employees, management and the board of Tata Steel in the UK, were key to the future of Port Talbot.
However, Mr Chatterjee warned that the current political uncertainty could be a problem.

Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) and US investor Brookfield Property Partners made the offer.
Shareholders have until 29 January to accept or reject it.
QIA owns 29% of Songbird. It will have to persuade the next three biggest shareholders, New York-based Simon Glick, sovereign wealth fund China Investment Corp and Morgan Stanley, who own more than 50% between them and are still evaluating the offer, Songbird said.
The move is the latest in a series of offers from QIA for the firm.
"The board remains unmoved in its view that the offer does not reflect the full value of the business, its unique operating platform and its prospects," said David Pritchard, the chairman of Songbird.
Canary Wharf was established 25 years ago as the new financial district in London, and is home to some of the world's biggest banks including HSBC and Barclays.

Their five-day action will come to an end on Sunday.
CSG said cameras would record as normal with monitoring arrangements in place.
A spokesman for CSG said: "CCTV cameras will continue to operate and record as normal. Monitoring will be provided from within existing resources."
He added: "This strike is entirely unnecessary and ill-conceived. We are more than willing to talk this through and there is more than ample time to reach a fair settlement.
"We urge the union reps to get back round the table and discuss these issues constructively."
The staff taking part in the action belong to three trade unions - Unison, Unite and GMB.
Unite regional officer William McGonigle said: "Community Safety Glasgow wants to remove out-of-hours payments for our members, which could see many losing up to £4,000 in their take-home pay.
"That's a massive cut, and we simply can't agree to it.
"We urge Community Safety Glasgow to stop attacking their hard-working staff, and to get back around the negotiating table with us to come up with a sensible solution."
CSG said that a pay review "designed to ensure balance and fairness" for all staff had "delivered improved or identical pay for 83% of staff".

"Having said that, the racing community is a strong and great one. It's an industry that looks after its own, so maybe I shouldn't have been quite as overwhelmed as I am.
"The important thing now is that people don't think we have enough funds. In this situation there will never be enough."

Steve Drowne, who avoided injury when his mount, Skara Mae, was brought down in the same incident, added: "He is everyone's friend and he loved doing what he was doing and had just had his best year ever, getting a couple of Group Ones in the book. But racing is probably the last thing he is thinking about now."
Emerging Newmarket-based trainer Charlie Fellowes said he would always be thankful to Tylicki for providing him with his first winner on a day that he described as the "happiest of my life".

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | The city featured in the data published by the World Health Organisation (WHO).
The health body warned poor air quality caused more than three million deaths around the world every year.
A spokeswoman for Glasgow City Council said it took its responsibility to monitor air quality "very seriously" and its data showed it met air pollution targets in 2015.
As air quality declines, the risk of stroke, heart disease, lung cancer, and chronic and acute respiratory diseases, including asthma, increases among residents, WHO said.
One way the global health body assesses air quality is by examining the levels of a type of pollution known as particulate matter (PMs).
Glasgow was one of a number of places which breached the safe limit set for PM10.
Port Talbot, Stanford-Le-Hope, London, Scunthorpe, Leeds, Eastbourne, Nottingham, Southampton and Oxford, as well the town of Longford in Ireland, also exceeded the safe level.
More than 40 towns and cities across Britain and Ireland breached the safe levels for another measure known as PM2.5.
Glasgow and Prestonpans in East Lothian featured on that list.
WHO said that across the world 80% of cities that measure outdoor air pollution are failing to meet its guidance for safe levels of air quality.
Dr Flavia Bustreo, WHO's assistant director general for family, women and children's health, said: "When dirty air blankets our cities, the most vulnerable urban populations - the youngest, oldest and poorest - are the most impacted."
Jenny Bates, Friends of the Earth air pollution campaigner, said air pollution caused 40,000 early deaths a year in the UK.
He added: "This is a public health crisis. It's time it was treated that way.
"We need fewer and cleaner vehicles with a Clean Air Zone in every city and large town - and politicians must urgently introduce a diesel scrappage scheme to get the worst polluting vehicles off our roads, as well as more investment in alternatives to driving."
Dr Penny Woods, chief executive of the British Lung Foundation, said the report was "deeply concerning".
"It is clear from this report that the UK is facing an air pollution crisis," she said.
"Unfortunately, the government's response so far has been inadequate. Swift action must be taken to reduce pollution levels in the UK and protect our lung health."
A spokeswoman for Glasgow City Council said: "Glasgow has set a target of being one of the most sustainable cities in Europe and we take our responsibility to monitor air quality very seriously.
"In fact the latest data for air quality in the city shows that both the Scottish Air Quality Objective and WHO target level for the pollutants PM10 and PM2.5 were met across the city in 2015.
"While we have made good progress, we recognise there is more to be done. The council is a key partner in the Scottish government's Clean Air for Scotland Strategy which is intended to define the path to achieving full compliance with the relevant air quality standards over the next few years."
A total of 40 towns and cities in the UK and Ireland breached safe levels for fine particles in the air, known as PM2.5, according to WHO. | Glasgow has been named among 11 urban areas in the UK and Ireland which have breached air pollution safety levels. |

Hamilton was 0.03 seconds quicker than Rosberg over one flying lap and also had a clear advantage on longer runs.
The Mercedes duo's closest rivals at Interlagos were the Williams pair of Valtteri Bottas and Felipe Massa.
"There is more to come," said Hamilton. "In previous years, I always struggled with the rear end and this weekend that doesn't seem to be the problem.
"I hope that continues but also I prepared a little bit differently this weekend and it seems to be working."
Bottas was 0.39secs behind Hamilton and 0.028secs ahead of Brazilian Massa, who is racing in his home grand prix for the last time after announcing he will retire at the end of the season.
The unexpected performance of the Williams cars pushed the Red Bulls of Daniel Ricciardo and Max Verstappen down to fifth and sixth places respectively, half a second behind the Mercedes.

In the dry, however, Mercedes are in a league of their own - as was Hamilton for much of the time on Friday.
The margin between him and Rosberg was close in the second session but the Briton was 0.23secs quicker in the first.
In the race-simulation runs on the soft tyre in the second half of the second session, Hamilton was, on average, just under 0.5secs quicker than Rosberg, whose advantage over the Red Bulls was 0.2secs.
The margin between Hamilton and Rosberg was much smaller in their later runs on the medium tyre but still about 0.2secs in the world champion's favour.
"It's been a good day," said Hamilton. "The car is feeling really good. It's pretty tough out here physically right now with the heat as high as it is.
"Finding the right balance isn't easy either in these conditions as the tyres are getting really hot. But our long run pace seems to be strong, so we can be happy with the start we've made."
Ferrari appear to be struggling, with Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen seventh and eighth fastest overall.
They are lagging behind Mercedes and Red Bull on race pace as well.
Force India's Nico Hulkenberg was ninth quickest ahead of the McLarens of Jenson Button and Fernando Alonso.
The Spaniard provided some light relief when his car stopped on track because of a data anomaly in the water supply to the energy recovery system.
Alonso was stuck on the outside of Turn Three and, after watching the cars for a while, began playing football keepy-uppies with a stone after getting bored.
A cameraman then offered him a chair to sit in, reviving memories of his antics after breaking down in the same session last year in Brazil.
Last year, coming at the end of a season of reliability problems in an uncompetitive car, his mock sunbathing sparked an internet sensation and the hashtag 'Places Alonso would rather be'.
Alonso played up to the incident on Friday, briefly operating the camera he was sat behind and then waving to another camera.
Meanwhile, Raikkonen and Toro Rosso's Carlos Sainz have been called to see the stewards after an on-track incident during the session.
They were seen driving slowly alongside each other, perhaps because one felt the other had blocked him, before Raikkonen accelerated around the outside of Sainz and then cutting across him to enter the pits at the end of the lap.

According to article 27.5 of the sporting regulations: "At no time may a car be driven unnecessarily slowly, erratically or in a manner which could be deemed potentially dangerous to other drivers or any other person. This will apply whether any such car is being driven on the track, the pit entry or the pit lane."

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | In a BBC interview, Aisha Buhari suggested his government had been hijacked by only a "few people", who were behind presidential appointments.
She said the president did not know most of the officials he had appointed.
Mr Buhari, who is on a visit to Germany, has responded by saying his wife belonged in his kitchen.
Standing alongside German Chancellor Angela Merkel at a news conference, the president laughed off his wife's accusations.
"I don't know which party my wife belongs to, but she belongs to my kitchen and my living room and the other room," he said.
The remarks earned him a glare from Chancellor Merkel.
Mr Buhari said that having run for president three times and having succeeded the fourth, he could "claim superior knowledge over her".
Mr Buhari was elected last year with a promise to tackle corruption and nepotism in government.
But in the interview with Naziru Mikailu from BBC Hausa, Mrs Buhari said: "The president does not know 45 out of 50 of the people he appointed and I don't know them either, despite being his wife of 27 years."
She said people who did not share the vision of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) were now appointed to top posts because of the influence a "few people" wield.
"Some people are sitting down in their homes folding their arms only for them to be called to come and head an agency or a ministerial position," she said.
His wife's decision to go public with her concerns will shock many people, but it shows the level of discontent with the president's leadership, says the BBC's Naziru Mikailu in the capital, Abuja.
Aisha Buhari campaigned vigorously for her husband in last year's election in Nigeria, organising town hall meetings with women's groups and youth organisations across the country.
However, she kept a low profile at the start of the administration and was barely seen or heard. She was restricted to her work on the empowerment of women and helping victims of the Boko Haram conflict in the north-east of the country where she is from. This is one of the reasons why this damning interview has caught the attention of many Nigerians.
It is a significant blow for Mr Buhari, who has a reputation for being a tough, no-nonsense president.
Her comments also bolster accusations that his government has been hijacked by a small group of individuals.
Critics say a large number of people have been appointed because of their relationship with those people in one way or the other.
Mrs Buhari was prompted to to speak out in an effort to end those practices so that party loyalists who contributed to his election victory could benefit.
Her critics say she is speaking out only because she failed to convince the president to appoint her own people.
However, as the closest person to the president, she must have exhausted all avenues before criticising him in the media.
The comments could also mark a turning point for a government that has clearly struggled to deal with economic recession and is facing growing disquiet within the ruling party.
The Nigerian economy, battered by low global oil prices and a currency devaluation, officially entered recession in August for the first time in a decade.
Oil sales account for 70% of government income.
The president famously remarked at his inauguration that he "belongs to nobody and belongs to everybody".
Asked to name those who had hijacked the government, she refused, saying: "You will know them if you watch television."
On whether the president was in charge, she said: "That is left for the people to decide."
Mrs Buhari, who at 45, is 23 years her husband's junior, said he had not told her whether he would contest the 2019 election.
"He is yet to tell me but I have decided as his wife, that if things continue like this up to 2019, I will not go out and campaign again and ask any woman to vote like I did before. I will never do it again."
Nigerians have been weighing in on Twitter to give their judgement on the first lady's frank interview:
Asked what she regarded as the government's major achievement, she said it was to improve security in the north-east where militant Islamist group Boko Haram has waged an insurgency since 2009.
"No-one is complaining about being attacked in their own homes. Thankfully everyone can walk around freely, go to places of worship, etc. Even kids in Maiduguri have returned to schools," Mrs Buhari said, referring to the city which was once the headquarters of the militant group. | Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari's wife has warned him that she may not back him at the next election unless he shakes up his government. |

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | The Reuters and AFP news agencies say they have been told by judicial sources that the company is being investigated for breaking consumer protection laws.
Diesel emissions have been under the spotlight since the Volkswagen scandal.
But PSA said its vehicles have never been fitted with software to let its diesel engines deceive pollution tests.
A PSA spokesman said the company "respects regulations in all countries where it operates" and denied doing anything illegal.
The group was referred to French prosecutors by the consumer watchdog DGCCRF after its staff seized documents from PSA offices in France a year ago.
The accusation against PSA is that the emissions from its diesel engines might "render its merchandise dangerous for human or animal health".
Fraud investigators have already accused the partly state-owned Renault car firm of cheating on pollution tests for diesel and petrol engines for over the past 25 years, and with the knowledge of its top executives.
Since September 2015, Germany's Volkswagen has admitted fitting 11 million cars - 8.5 million of them in Europe - with devices to fool diesel emissions tests.
Last month, PSA agreed to buy Opel and Vauxhall from the US firm General Motors for £1.9bn in an attempt to challenge Volkswagen. | The French car firm PSA Peugeot-Citroen is under investigation by French prosecutors for cheating diesel emission tests, according to reports. |

The children are believed to be from Ballycastle and aged 10, 11 and 12.
Nat Hunter, from Ballyvoy, was walking on the beach with his wife when he saw the children in the water.
Mr Hunter told BBC News NI: "We saw the children playing in the mouth of the river where it meets the sea.
"But when we came back they had got caught up in the current of the river and been pushed out to sea.
"They had started to panic and get stressed out, so I went to get the buoyancy aid up on the beach and went out to them.
"I threw the ring out to the child who was furthest away, about 50m out.
"It was two little girls and a boy, I think they were about ten."
Mr Hunter was helped by another man to bring the children to safety.
"When we left the coastguard was with them and the ambulance had just arrived," he said.
"I think they were alright, but they are bound to have been freezing and a bit shook up."

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | President Francois Hollande and Egypt's President Abdul Fattah al-Sisi "agreed on the principle and the terms of the acquisition", a statement said.
France halted the planned sale to Russia in late 2014, following the conflict in eastern Ukraine.
It has not divulged how much Egypt will pay for the warships, but Paris insists it is not out of pocket.
Differences over the cost had been reported during the French-Egyptian negotiations.
Russia agreed to buy the two warships - which can each carry 16 helicopters, four landing craft and 13 tanks - in a 2011 deal worth €1.2bn (£843m; $1.3bn).
Russia had paid about €840m in advance before the deal was stopped as the Ukrainian conflict erupted with Russia's annexation of Crimea.
After intense negotiations, Paris finally agreed in August to fully reimburse Russia, as well as foot the bill for training sailors and building port infrastructure in Vladivostok.
Egypt is fighting a long-running insurgency in its northern Sinai region.
That conflict intensified after the military overthrew Islamist President Mohammed Morsi in 2013.
The government has also launched an extensive crackdown on Islamist groups, including mass death sentences for members of Mr Morsi's Muslim Brotherhood.
This is only Egypt's latest purchase of military hardware from France.

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | The 49-year-old pleaded guilty at an earlier Blackpool Magistrates' Court hearing to sending unwanted texts and emails to beautician Sarah Kinder after she ended their relationship in March.
Hendry, from Lytham St Annes in Lancashire, was ordered to do 100 hours' unpaid community service.
Earlier this year, he received a 17-month road ban for drink-driving.
Hendry began seeing Miss Kinder following the death of his wife Denise, 42, in 2009 from botched cosmetic surgery.
The harassment began when Miss Kinder broke off their relationship in March.
Hendry admitted making unwanted visits to her home and twice threw stones at her bedroom window to get her attention.
Prosecutor Alison Quanbrough said that Miss Kinder had not wished to give evidence against him, did not want a restraining order and "simply wanted to put the matter behind her".
The content of the messages was not hostile and was "almost affectionate" but the frequency of the contact amounted to harassment, the court heard.
Miss Quanbrough said: "She says she did not feel at any risk from Colin and she does believe now that Colin has accepted the relationship is over.
"She did not want Colin to be arrested and feels the whole episode has been blown out of proportion."
Paul Schofield, representing Hendry, said: "He is determined that this case marks the end of what can be classed as a blip for him, in the last six months in total, and he can assure you - through me - that he will never transgress in any way again."
During his career, Hendry played for Scotland in Euro 1996 and in World Cup 1998.

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | African football goes to the polls on Thursday to choose a new Caf president and for the first time since he came to power in 1988, incumbent Issa Hayatou faces a serious challenge.
Only twice before has the Cameroonian run against another candidate and he swept aside both with ease: Angola's Armando Machado in 2000 (by 47 votes to 4) and Ismail Bhamjee of Botswana in 2004 (46-6).
This time many believe Hayatou's opponent, Ahmad of Madagascar, could change the status quo.
Bility, who has long been a thorn in Caf's side after speaking out on several issues, told BBC Sport. "The reality is that football has come to be more active, more democratic, more involving - and we have to do that.
"We have to follow the path of the rest of the world, as Africa cannot afford to be left behind. I believe that Africa is ready for change. This is the first time in the history of (Hayatou's) Caf that there is a real and possible challenge to the leadership."
Under the 70-year-old Haytou's control, African football has changed immensely.
If President Hayatou wins, there will be rancour and I would foresee a period of uncertainty
He has, among several measures, overseen the expansion of the Africa Cup of Nations from eight teams to 16, the increase in the number of Africa's World Cup representatives (from two to five), remodelling and financially boosting club competitions as well as greatly boosting Caf's finances.
The 2007 introduction of the African Nations Championship, which is like the Nations Cup but only using footballers who play in their domestic league, has proved very popular while it was also on the Cameroonian's watch that Africa staged its first World Cup in 2010 (in South Africa).
Despite the myriad achievements, Bility believes time is up for veteran Hayatou and that a new leader should steer African football into the future.
He believes Ahmad, who outlined a desire for improved governance, with a commitment to increased transparency and reinvestment in his manifesto, is the right man.
"He's presented a programme to all 54 countries - I've never seen this before," added Bility.
"Normally, we go to elections and there are no promises. There is nothing to hold the president against. This time around, we have a guy who is running on something we can hold him to.
"The other candidate (Hayatou) does not care to give a programme. He just goes through election after election, acclamation after acclamation. There is no promise made to us, therefore there are no obligations nor broken promises. This is what we need to change."
With Hayatou's critics saying he runs African football with an iron fist while relying on a handful of close advisers, Bility believes Caf will benefit from different personnel and fresh ideas.
"It's not to say that Hayatou has not done much for Africa - African football has come of age - it's to say that there is no way that you can keep an individual in authority for over 29 years. There is nothing new expected," he claimed.
"Ahmad is from a country that is struggling to develop football. He understands the difficulties we go through as presidents."
The southern African football region Cosafa, which encompasses Madagascar, has said it will vote for Ahmad - which accounts for 14 votes (a tally that might be less given Comoros has offered its vote to Hayatou) - while Nigeria and Djibouti have also publicly backed the Malagasy.
Nigeria's federation president Amaju Pinnick told BBC Sport he believes there is a need to change the "tiny cabal" that runs Caf, so echoing Ahmad who spoke of the need to reconcile the African football family in his manifesto.
There is also a need to repair relations with Fifa, which frayed after Caf instructed all its members to vote for Bahrain's Sheikh Salman in the football's world governing body's February 2016 elections.
When Gianni Infantino assumed the Fifa presidency instead, Caf was left exposed.
"You can see clearly that Caf and Fifa are not moving in the same direction," says Bility.
"If President Hayatou wins, there will be rancour and I would foresee a period of uncertainty."
Despite his desire to see Hayatou replaced, Bility is adamant the Cameroonian should be afforded a befitting send-off.
"We'd like to see President Hayatou retire honourably. We'd like to thank him for everything he has done for African football. We want to respect and make sure his time is recorded in history - with due honour given," he said.
"But at the same time we want to move forward to a new development and a new generation of leaders. This is not a campaign in which we are going to get involved in mud-slinging and bad-mouthing - we just want change." | "It's time we introduce a new regime," says Liberian Football Association president Musa Bility ahead of what has been described as the most important Confederation of African Football elections for almost three decades. |
Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | In a statement, her family said it had been "emotional week" after a farmer found what he suspected to be a grave close to where she disappeared in 1994.
They thanked him for contacting police, even though her remains were not found.
Arlene, who was 15 and from Castlederg, County Tyrone, was last seen in a car with the child killer Robert Howard.
He was acquitted of her murder in 2005 by a jury not told about his conviction for killing another teenage girl in England.
At Belfast Coroners Court on Monday, a statement from a senior police officer investigating Arlene's murder was read to the inquest.
Det Ch Supt Raymond Murray said police first received a phone call last Tuesday from the current owner of an unoccupied property in Killen, County Tyrone.
The owner informed them that a farmer, Noel Doherty, had discovered what he believed to be a grave in what would have been the back garden of the property.
"The actual excavation of the site took place on Friday 16th September 2016 and the experts concluded no human remains were present", the statement read.
"However, when they were present at the scene they indicated another area close by where, at some point, soil may have been disturbed.
"The scene was then held for a further day and this, too, was excavated. It was discovered to be an old sceptic tank.
"Nothing suspicious was found at either of the excavation sites. There are no outstanding lines of inquiry generated as a result of the search operation."
The Arkinson family did not attend the hearing but in a statement read by their legal representative, they said it had been "a very emotional week" and they thanked police, the media and the community for their help and support.
"They particularly want to thank the farmer, Mr Doherty, for reporting his suspicions to the police," their solicitor said.
"The family have to remain hopeful and do so while being bitterly disappointed that Arlene's remains haven't been found yet."
The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) believe Arlene, who has been missing for 22 years, was murdered.
Howard, who died in prison last year, remains their only suspect.
Howard was originally from County Laois in the Republic of Ireland and he picked up Arlene on 14 August 1994, after she attended a school disco in Bundoran, County Donegal.
Belfast Coroners Court was told on Monday that new legislation has now been passed in the Republic of Ireland that will enable An Garda Síochána (Irish police) to cooperate fully with the inquest.
The inquest was told that the coroner's legal representatives are to meet the Irish state solicitor in the next few days to identify what, if any, evidence Gardaí can contribute to the inquest.
The coroner said: "The elephant in the room is none of us knows what the Gardaí have concerning this and that is going to be question number one".
The inquest was adjourned until 7 October. | The inquest into the death of Arlene Arkinson has heard more detail about last week's unsuccessful search for the remains of the missing schoolgirl. |
Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | The garden, in Dublin, is dedicated to people who fought for Irish independence from Britain.
Dozens of protesters gathered nearby amid one of the country's biggest security operations.
Earlier, the Queen was welcomed by President Mary McAleese.
It emerged that a pipe bomb found on a bus bound for Dublin on Monday had been made safe by the Irish army.
Upon landing at Baldonnel military airbase, just outside Dublin, the Queen emerged wearing an outfit of symbolic emerald green.
After lunch the monarch wore a white outfit.
God Save The Queen was played when she arrived at the Garden of Remembrance to lay the wreath - regarded as a highly symbolic act as the garden commemorates Irish people who fought over the centuries against British rule.
A one-minute silence followed the laying of the wreath, after which the Irish Tricolour was raised from half to full mast and the country's national anthem was played.
Much of the centre of Dublin was cordoned off, leaving many streets empty, as part of the strict security clampdown put in place for the visit.
By Conor SpackmanBBC News
The mood in the Garden of Remembrance was sombre as the Queen carried out one of the most symbolic engagements of her itinerary.
Here, in the heart of Dublin's city centre, the Republic of Ireland remembers all those who died while fighting to break the link with Britain - from the United Irishmen in 1798 to the IRA of 1921.
Greeted by the British national anthem, the Queen stood alongside the Irish president Mary McAleese.
The respectful silence was only broken by the quiet whirr of a helicopter overhead and the occasional shout from protesters who were outside releasing black balloons.
Then, with senior members of the Irish defence forces looking on, the two heads of state took turns to lay wreathes, honouring those who gave their lives for Irish freedom.
Royal visit with a deeper meaning
The Queen, Symbolism and Sorrow
Meanwhile, riot police officers jostled with demonstrators at two separate protests on streets several hundred yards from the garden.
The sounds of protesters could be heard during the laying of the wreath and black balloons were released by some demonstrators.
There were scuffles between police and republicans protesting against the visit in the centre of Dublin at Tuesday lunchtime.
Up to 200 supporters of the Eirigi socialist republican party later retreated to stage a rally nearby.
The Queen then went on to Trinity College to be shown the Book of Kells, an ancient illuminated manuscript in Latin, containing the four gospels of the New Testament.
Later, the monarch met Trinity scholars, musicians and artists.
At Baldonnel airbase, the royal party was greeted by an Irish Air Corps guard of honour and presented with flowers by a south Dublin schoolgirl, eight-year-old Rachel Fox.
The Queen and Duke of Edinburgh were then driven in a bombproof and bulletproof car, with a 33-motorcycle escort, to Aras an Uachtarain - the official residence of the Irish president in Dublin's Phoenix Park. The visit is taking place following Mrs McAleese's invitation.
The Queen shook hands with the president at the front of the residence before moving inside to meet the Taoiseach (prime minister) Enda Kenny.
The Irish flag and the union jack flew side by side at the gates to the building, where both countries' national anthems were played.
A 21-gun salute and an Air Corps flypast also marked the Queen's arrival.
She and Prince Philip signed the visitors' book in the residence's lavish state ballroom, before having lunch with the president and her husband.
King George V was the last monarch to visit the country, in 1911, when what is now the Republic was then part of the UK.
UK Prime Minister Cameron will join the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh for part of their trip on Wednesday, while Foreign Secretary William Hague is following the usual practice of accompanying the royals throughout their visit.

The Queen will attend events this week at the National War Memorial Gardens in Islandbridge and Croke Park stadium.
Croke Park is the home of Gaelic games where in 1920, during the Irish War of Independence, British forces fired into the crowd at a football match, killing 14 spectators and players.
The Queen is also to make a speech at a state dinner at Dublin Castle.
There are also plans for the Queen and Prince Philip to visit the Irish National Stud in County Kildare, as well as the Rock of Cashel in County Tipperary and a technology park in Cork.
The bomb on the bus was found in a holdall in the luggage compartment on Monday night during a check in Maynooth, County Kildare, to the west of Dublin.
About 30 people who were on board the bus were taken off and transported to Dublin in another vehicle.
The device was later made safe in a controlled explosion carried out by an Irish army bomb disposal team.
A coded bomb threat relating to London had been received on Sunday, the first issued by Irish dissidents outside Northern Ireland in 10 years, officials said.
However, the threat level for Northern Ireland-related terrorism in Britain remains unchanged at substantial. In Northern Ireland it is severe.
The cost of the security operation has been estimated at 30 million euros (£26m), with measures including:
Richard Boyd Barrett, who represents the People Before Profit party, criticised the expense of the state visit.
"We don't need to spend 30 million euros on a big circus bringing over one of the wealthiest women in the world to parade around the streets of Dublin and shut the city down for a few days to tell us what we already know, which is we are friends of the people of Britain," he said.

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Mr Perry had recently stopped paying campaign staff in states with early contests like Iowa.
His campaign has been struggling in the polls and he failed to make the cut into the main Republican presidential debate last month.
Mr Perry also ran in 2012 but dropped out after a series of gaffes.
Without naming front-runner Donald Trump, Mr Perry warned fellow Republicans to reject hard-line stances on immigration that could alienate Hispanic Americans.
"In America, it is the content of your character that matters, not the colour of your skin," he told supporters on Friday.
Rick Perry certainly possessed a resume to be a top-tier contender for the Republican nomination.
He was an ex-military officer from humble roots who, as governor of Texas, led the state through economic boom times. His campaign never caught fire, however, and - eventually - the campaign money dried up.
Just four years ago, in his first presidential bid, Mr Perry had widespread support and seemed a real threat to Mitt Romney for the Republican nomination. That was before poor debate performances - capped by his "oops" moment, where he forgot the third in a list of federal agencies he'd abolish - and sharp criticism for a moderate position on immigration reform that was out of step with the Republican electorate.
It seems in a crowded 2016 field, Republican voters were just not interested in giving Mr Perry a second look.
Mr Perry - who led America's second most populous state for more than a decade - was initially seen as a top-tier candidate.
However, he has been quickly eclipsed in the polls by political outsiders like Mr Trump and former neurosurgeon Ben Carson.
"We have a tremendous field, the best in a generation, so I step aside knowing our party is in good hands," he said.
Sixteen Republicans and five Democrats remain the race. | Former Texas Governor Rick Perry has dropped out of the race to be US president - the first departure among a large field of Republican candidates. |

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Scottish Health Secretary Alex Neil said the move would help meet the cost of so-called orphan medicines.
These are drugs used to treat illnesses affecting fewer than one in 2,000 people.
The new fund will only cover the cost of medicines whose routine use has been rejected by the Scottish Medicines Consortium (SMC).
This could include drugs such as Kalydeco - also known as ivacaftor - which was rejected for use in Scotland by the SMC on Monday largely on the grounds of cost.
The NHS in England decided to provide funding for Kalydeco from 1 January this year.
Mr Neil said it was only right that Scottish patients with rare conditions had access to innovative medicines which were clinically justified, and that they were not disadvantaged due to the very high cost of these treatments.
He added: "I am therefore pleased to confirm today that the Scottish government will establish a fund which will ensure that the cost of successful new individual patient treatment requests for orphan medicines are met."
MSPs heard last year that the Individual Patient Treatment Requests (IPTR) system, which patients can use to get drugs not yet approved for general use by the SMC, is an "inequitable process" that favours young, middle-class and articulate applicants over more suitable vulnerable people who cannot speak up for themselves.
In November, Mr Neil said a review would be carried out to look at current systems for making new medicines available across the NHS in Scotland.
A separate review is examining if the IPTR arrangements can be improved, with the new fund established after interim advice from Professor Charles Swainson - a former medical director at NHS Lothian who is now an independent consultant.
The £21m is available from March through to April next year and will help cover the cost of successful requests under the IPTR system.
Mr Neil said: "This fund bridges the period to the establishment of next year's value-based pricing for medicines and any changes that are made following the completion of the ongoing access to new medicines review.
"We recognise that the Scottish Medicines Consortium (SMC) is globally respected and has the fastest and most efficient medicine review process anywhere in the UK but that for some individual patients with rare conditions, there is a need for further support. This new fund will complement it by making the IPTR processes fairer."
Labour's health spokeswoman Jackie Baillie welcomed the announcement but said it showed up the problems in the system.
She said: "We were promised a full review of how drugs are approved, but this is merely a sticking plaster on the problem.
"If nothing else, it is an acceptance that the current process is deeply flawed and is literally buying time while the SNP try to sort out the mess."
Kalydeco treats people who have the G551D cystic fibrosis mutation, which affects about 11% of people with cystic fibrosis in Scotland, compared with about 4% in the UK, according to the Cystic Fibrosis Trust.
About 80 people in Scotland would have been eligible for treatment with Kalydeco, the trust estimates.
A spokesman for the SMC said it was aware that the decision not to recommend the drug for use in the NHS would "come as a disappointment".
He said Kalydeco was a "promising new medicine" but claims that it could increase life expectancy by as much as 18 years were "highly uncertain".
The spokesman said: "This weakness, combined with the very high cost of the medicine, were significant factors in the SMC decision.
"The cost of ivacaftor in NHS Scotland would be around £180,000 per year for each patient for life. The recent decision to make ivacaftor available in England is based on a discounted price that has not been offered to NHS Scotland.
"SMC aims to make decisions on the cost-effectiveness of new medicines in a way that is fair for all patients with all conditions and for the sake of patients with cystic fibrosis, we would welcome the opportunity to evaluate an improved case for this new medicine."
Ed Owen, chief executive of the Cystic Fibrosis Trust, welcomed the Scottish government's decision to make "additional funding available to enable Kalydeco to be made available to those that need it".
He said: "We now appeal to Vertex, the manufacturers of Kalydeco, and the NHS in Scotland to work together to reach a fair and affordable solution as soon as possible.
"The CF Trust has campaigned for all people with the G551D mutation of cystic fibrosis who are eligible to receive Kalydeco to be able to receive it as soon as possible." | A £21m fund has been launched to help improve access to treatment for people with rare medical conditions. |
Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Lorenz was preoccupied with the idea that tiny changes to a complex system like the weather could produce dramatic and wholly unpredictable consequences.
But it's unlikely that even Lorenz could have imagined what would happen next when Hillary Clinton's campaign chairman John Podesta received an email in March notifying him that his Googlemail password had been compromised and advising him to reset it.
Precisely who was behind the so-called spear-phishing mail - a common form of cyber attack familiar to most email users - and what their motive was, are now at the centre of a ferocious argument in the bitter aftermath of the US election.
The stakes could scarcely be higher: a foreign state stands accused of mounting a campaign of hacking and leaking to help get its preferred candidate into the White House.
And whatever the final conclusions of the multiple investigations into the alleged Russian hacking operation, many of Clinton's allies believe the steady trickle of embarrassing emails, drip-fed by Wikileaks through the last crucial weeks of the campaign, may have been enough to deny her the presidency.
Neera Tanden, a former Clinton aide whose engagingly candid emails made her an unwilling star of the Podesta hack, told me the leak had substantially damaged her support among younger voters.
"I believe the leak was a large part of why Hillary had real problems with millennials which is why she did not hit her targets in the three states [Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin]."
I asked her if it could really have made the difference between winning and losing. "Absolutely. And I think people have to live with that."
Dramatic as it is, the hacking of Podesta and other Democrat figures appears to be just the latest manifestation of a disturbing new trend: states combining the techniques of hackers and whistleblowers to mount a new kind of information warfare.
From the hacking of Sony, apparently by the North Koreans, to the dumping of medical records of elite athletes on the internet (Russia the suspect again), the data dump has been weaponised.
It's a development that poses difficult questions for journalists. How should we handle troves of confidential data effectively handed to us by foreign states? Do we risk becoming "useful idiots" when we run precisely the stories that a hostile government wants us to?
It's a question we wrestled with on Newsnight when we ran a series of stories about Bradley Wiggins, based on the medical records of athletes - material widely believed to have been hacked by the Russians in revenge for the banning of hundreds of Russian athletes from the Rio Olympics.
It felt uncomfortable, but the public interest in establishing whether a major sporting figure had broken the spirit of the rules - if not the letter - seemed clear cut.
When it comes to tampering with elections the stakes are rather higher. One prominent victim of another state-sponsored hack told me he thought journalists who feasted on material served up by the Russians with the aim of influencing a US election were committing "something verging on treason".
Dean Baquet, the executive editor of the New York Times, which has run a string of stories based on the hacking of both Podesta's mail and, before that, material from Democratic National Committee figures, told me the thought that he might be doing Vladimir Putin's bidding sometimes kept him up at night.
"Sure it does. But it would keep me up at night worse or at least longer if I had information from a hack that I knew was accurate, that voters and citizens needed to know. That would make me really uncomfortable... Will I lose a little sleep because I'm being manipulated? Yeah. But I lose a lot more sleep if I sit that stuff in a safe."
In Baquet's view, "the information trumps all" no matter how it has been obtained. But I wonder if the ease of leaking digital information has eased our moral qualms about dealing with stolen material.
I asked Baquet what he would have done if the New York Times had been handed a cache of physical documents burgled from John Podesta's house.
He was at least admirably consistent: "I would go through it. And if it was really significant and important I would publish it. And I'm putting a lot of emphasis on significant and important, but I would publish it."
He compared it to the case of Donald Trump's tax return which the paper published during the campaign, with no knowledge of how it had been obtained.
Some have argued that the wholesale dumping of leaked material on the internet, and the media's willingness to report it, is on the way to destroying any expectation of privacy in our digital lives.
Did discovering that producer Scott Rudin considered Angelina Jolie to be "a minimally talented spoiled brat" justify the ransacking of hacked emails from Sony executives?
"Under the veneer of journalism reporters were totally trafficking in gossip," Tanden told me about her experience of being caught up in the Podesta hack.
Though many questions remain unanswered about the massive leaks of hacked material during the US election, one thing is certain: they are unlikely to be the last.
The German intelligence service has already warned that they fear similar attempts to tamper with elections there next year.
And the man charged with protecting Britain against cyber-attack, Ciaran Martin, director of the new National Cyber Security Centre, told me there was a risk the experience of the US elections would inspire other states to try similar tactics.
One tantalising detail of the great US election hack of 2016 seems to underline the very human frailty that the likes of Martin have to contend with.
When John Podesta received his fateful scam email in March, the New York Times revealed, an aide sent it to his IT department. A staffer replied saying it was "legitimate".
That staffer now says it was a typo - he meant to type "illegitimate".

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | The attack targeted an investment fund called the DAO which is based on technology derived from the Bitcoin crypto-currency.
DAO members are now debating how to recover the diverted funds.
One suggestion involves rolling back the entire computerised system to a time when the hack had not happened.
The DAO, or Decentralised Autonomous Organisation, acts as an investment fund that people buy into by swapping real cash for a virtual currency known as Ether.
Using Ether, people could buy DAO tokens that they could "spend" to back start-ups and investment opportunities looking for help via the fund. Earlier this year, investors put about $150m of Ether into the DAO.
Ether was developed by a company called Ethereum which has been at the forefront of work to use the technology and ideas behind bitcoin in other ways. The DAO was an attempt to use it to create a crowd-sourced autonomous fund owned by its participants that was free of the third-parties involved in more traditional venture capital investment vehicles.
But one DAO participant noticed a flaw in the way that tokens were transferred between members - this allowed them to siphon off about 3 million of the tokens into a separate DAO of their own.
"An attack has been found and exploited in the DAO, and the attacker is currently in the process of draining the Ether contained in the DAO into a child DAO," wrote Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin in a blogpost about the incident.
Mr Buterin has proposed that the system be changed to make all the addresses holding Ether in the separate or "child" DAO invalid. A 27-day limit on when Ether can be moved out of a child DAO gives members a chance to fix the problem before the virtual cash is moved, he wrote.
Alternatively, he said, the creators of the DAO could simply return the whole system to a time when the hack had not yet happened.
Christoph Jentzsch, chief technology officer at Slock.it - which created the DAO's "framework" - said it was "fully supporting" the plan to invalidate the addresses holding Ether in the attacker's own DAO. He said Slock.it was now investigating how to go about rolling the whole system back to the time before the attack.
Prof Emin Gun Sirer, a computer scientist at Cornell University, said the attack was a "nightmare scenario" come to life.
He said the incident showed that setting up and running applications like the DAO requires "extreme amounts of diligence".
"It's more similar to writing code for a nuclear power reactor, than to writing loose web code," he said. | Hackers have taken control of virtual cash worth $60m (£41m) by exploiting a bug in a system designed to help start-ups. |

The great Cristiano Ronaldo, when analysing his own achievements, underlined it by saying: "The numbers don't lie."
And the same applies to Real Madrid - the 4-1 victory on Saturday sealed their third Champions League win in four years. Those numbers do not lie either.
So why are Real Madrid currently in a league of their own?
"Those who always criticise Cristiano are going to have to put their guitar back in its case."
These are the third-person words of Ronaldo after his fourth Champions League triumph, his third with Real after winning with Manchester United in Moscow in 2008.
And even after scoring his 600th career goal, adding polish to a Champions League record that now reads 105 goals in 140 games and scoring in his third final, the dwindling band that continues to criticise Ronaldo is increasingly out of tune.
The Portugal captain has now scored at least twice as many Champions League goals as any other other player in the quarter-finals (20), semi-finals (13), and finals (four).
The criticism usually revolves around Ronaldo's ego and personality but - to twist an old Sir Winston Churchill quote about his predecessor and successor as prime minister Clement Attlee - he may be immodest but he has got plenty to be immodest about.
After embracing his Old Trafford mentor Sir Alex Ferguson backstage and then receiving the man of the match award from him, this fiercely dedicated and consummate professional reflected on his feats at 32, an age when many players are feeling the tap on the shoulder from Father Time.
He said: "I will now have two or three days off, then it is World Cup qualifiers with Portugal before the Fifa Confederations Cup. It is a long season but I am motivated.
"My age is just a number. I feel like a young boy."

Joyous news for all at Real Madrid, where occasionally he has not felt unconditional love from the inhabitants of the Bernabeu, and ominous words for those hoping to unseat them as European football's superpower.
Real Madrid have world class sprinkled throughout their team, from Sergio Ramos in defence, through Toni Kroos and Luka Modric in midfield, to Ronaldo.
It is, for all those riches, Ronaldo who currently makes Real a cut above the rest and means they will be strong candidates for a 13th Champions League next season.
Here he showed that petulant side in the first 20 minutes before emerging, yet again, as the most significant figure in a game of world-class quality.
The usual debate has already begun about who is the better between Ronaldo and Barcelona forward Lionel Messi. It is simpler to just enjoy two of the all-time greats - but this season has belonged to Ronaldo and his performance in Cardiff confirmed it.
The forces of personality inside Real Madrid's dressing room can make it a combustible place - but the bad news for their rivals is that the sheer stature and knowledge of coach Zinedine Zidane provides the glue that has brought unity.
This quietly spoken character commands instant respect from his playing days when he was a World Cup winner with France in 1998, won Euro 2000 and acquired legendary status at Real Madrid when he was man of the match in the 2002 Champions League final against Bayer Leverkusen at Hampden Park. There he scored the winner with one of greatest goals seen in one of these showpiece games, hooking a left-foot volley over his shoulder from a Roberto Carlos cross.
Zidane's coaching career at the Bernabeu was something of a slow burner, moving from coach of Real Madrid Castilla, the club's "B" team to taking over from the sacked Rafael Benitez in January 2016.
The results have been extraordinary as Zidane moves seamlessly from greatness as a player to history-making coach.
Since taking charge he has won the Champions League in successive seasons, making Real the first club to achieve this, brought La Liga back to the Bernabeu for the first time in five years and has also secured the Super Cup and World Club Cup.
Zidane is the first coach to win Europe's elite club competition back-to-back since Italian Arrigo Sacchi with AC Milan in 1989 and 1990, and while he may not exactly be a reluctant hero, he has brought an understated sprinkling of stardust to the "Galacticos".
He is clearly proud to manage Real, saying: "I am a man of this house."
And what he brings, what he brought to Cardiff, was the authority that comes from being one of the best, a man who can speak on equal terms to modern greats such as Ronaldo. He can look them in the eye and they know he has been to the same places as them.
In that respect, the 44-year-old is the perfect man for Real's present and, when it comes to keeping them ahead of those who want to topple them, the future.
Ronaldo was full of praise for Zidane's half-time address after Real had struggled to subdue Juventus in the first 45 minutes.
"Zinedine Zidane gave us a really positive half-time team talk," he said. "He really believed in us."
Success for a Real Madrid coach usually only stretches as far as the next game, but Zidane is in an impregnable position.
And he is ready for the next challenge.
"This is a truly historic day for all Real Madrid fans, the players and myself - but we know how things are," he said.
"We know it is going to be even more difficult to win but we are now going to work very, very hard to win once again."
While the Premier League's own Champions League qualifiers Chelsea, Tottenham, Manchester City, Liverpool and Manchester United brace themselves to wield the chequebook in readiness for next season, a glance at Real Madrid's squad strength may cause some sleepless nights.
Let's leave those who actually started in Cardiff to one side - the names on Real Madrid's bench are enough to be going on with.
Zidane was able to set aside concerns about Gareth Bale's ability to last 90 minutes on his return to Wales because he had a player of the quality of Isco, the world-class Wales forward being introduced as a late substitute.
Bale was joined on the bench by 24-year-old Alvaro Morata, coveted by Chelsea and Manchester United and yet unable to make Real's first-choice side for a Champions League final.
Marco Asensio, at just 21, made his contribution with a goal as a midfield substitute, while 23-year-old Croatia midfielder Mateo Kovacic did not get any game time.
And, just as significantly, were those who did not make the matchday squad. Pepe and James Rodriguez, the latter touted as potentially a marquee signing for some of the Premier League's elite clubs, did not even get to change out of their club suits.
Place this next to the class in Real's side - and here you can simply list Saturday's starting XI - and the scale of the task of overtaking the Bernabeu giants becomes clear.
Real have superstar players and a superstar coach - and it may all have come together at the perfect time for them to extend their rule of European football.
Barcelona, stung by watching Real win La Liga and the Champions League, are currently in a period of transition.
Ernesto Valverde, formerly of Athletic Bilbao, has replaced Luis Enrique as manager, and will be under orders to reverse the current trend.
Lionel Messi, Neymar and Luis Suarez represent a world-class attacking trio but this is a side in need of renewal.
There is still an over-reliance on the Argentine while the great midfielder and leader Andres Iniesta is now 33 and will soon have to be replaced.
In this environment, Real can be guaranteed to be ruthless when it comes to squad strengthening.
Zidane swatted away questions about Bale's future but, as Sir Alex Ferguson once said about Manchester United, this is a bus that waits for no-one.
The likes of Morata and, far more likely, Rodriguez will go but Real are already being ominously linked with the sort of talent that will add even further lustre to this great side.
Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea is consistently linked with a return to Madrid, this time with Real, while they are already in pole position to sign the prodigy with all the gifts to be a "Galactico" of the future, Monaco's 18-year-old France forward Kylian Mbappe.
Mbappe may well cost a world-record transfer fee - but Real have never blinked in the face of that before and in the afterglow of yet another Champions League triumph they will want to strike another footballing and psychological blow to those they consider their closest rivals.

And in Perth, SSE took a big hit after reporting the loss of 90,000 customers in only three months.
Having to admit all this is the price to be paid for being on the stock market, and publicly answerable to shareholders.
It used to be that you had to report every three months. That's become voluntary, but few have given up on it. Shareholders are impatient for data, and for some, even three months seems an eternity.
The short-termism of the stock market, and its impact on the operation of Britain's big corporates, is not a new source of concern.
But the mis-match between shareholders' interests and those of the economy in the longer term is becoming more of a source of worry, and not only on this side of the Atlantic.
Hillary Clinton last week staked out a key part of her economic programme to get her to the White House, by challenging "quarterly capitalism". It's not a lefty liberal viewpoint. It's already been raised by some of the biggest figures on Wall Street.
"How do we define shareholder value in the 21st century?" Clinton asked. "Is it maximizing immediate returns or delivering long-term growth?"
She has tax changes in mind, to incentivise longer-term shareholding.
And it wasn't just on a whim that Andy Haldane, chief economist at the Bank of England, told Duncan Weldon on BBC Newsnight last week that we need to question the long-established pre-eminence of shareholder interest.
It has long been the orthodoxy that, by a board of directors pursuing shareholder value above all other priorities, they would maximise the interests of the customer, of sustained employment and, in aggregate of long-term growth in a stable economy.
That orthodoxy is now being challenged. Haldane said this is partly because shareholders are much more likely than they were to churn their ownership, buying and selling frequently - and in some computerised cases, several times per second. Shareholding is increasingly short-term.
It is also because the financial markets have become hooked on share buy-backs.
This is when the directors of a company use its profits and spare cash to buy its own shares. This both hands cash to those shareholders who want to sell, and it concentrates the company's valuation in the hands of remaining shareholders.
It can be a neat alternative to giving bigger dividends, having a similar effect.
And it's being done on a mind-boggling scale. Last year, more than $500 billion was spent by US companies on share buy-backs. In the first three months of this year, the top 500 US listed companies spent $237bn.
Market analysts reckon that buy-backs and dividends from the Standard & Poor 500 account for 35% of recent rises in market capitalisation on Wall Street, and buy-backs alone for 21%.
Buy-backs can also have the effect of artificially inflating the share-based bonuses handed to senior executives. So there is a conflict of interest issue there.
And of course, if spare cash is being handed, by whatever means, to shareholders, it's not being used to invest in the company's future.
The implicit calculation is that the value of offering cash in hand, or increased share price, is greater than the return that could be made on using that money to invest in equipment, market share or company acquisition.
It's popular with shareholders, but it doesn't look like much of a sign of confidence by the management itself in its own long-term plans to grow the company.
Theory suggests that the cash distributed this way makes its way to investors to re-invest in the most efficient way possible - in companies which have better growth and earnings prospects, and which are willing to invest in innovation.
But there's another way to use profits - to reward staff, or upskill them with improved training. Employees are seeing less of the benefit of companies profitability, because their remuneration is set by the labour market. It is under different pressures, including global and automated competition for jobs.
The share-out of the spoils of business might look different if a representative of the staff were sitting round the boardroom table and taking part in these decisions, as happens in parts of continental Europe. | This will be a busy week if you're in the shareholding business - not only if you're caught in the Shanghai rout, but also if you watch some of the big players in corporate Scotland. |

Blaenau Gwent had the highest proportion of people born in Wales, while Powys had the lowest.
This was the first time a national identity question had been asked.
The 2001 census had proved controversial after it included a box for people to tick to describe themselves as Scottish or Irish but not Welsh.
If people wanted to class themselves as Welsh in 2001 they were told they could tick the box marked "other" and then write "Welsh" alongside.
The omission sparked protests and the Welsh government lobbied for a national identity question.

Things were not always this bad for Mr Najib. The British-educated economist began his tenure in 2009 with a promising start, by pledging a raft of reforms long championed by the opposition.
Here are some of the major promises Mr Najib made:
This was a national unity campaign to rebrand his Malay-Muslim dominated Barisan Nasional coalition as one that cared for Malaysians of all faiths and ethnicities.
He pledged to roll back affirmative action policies that favoured the ethnic Malay majority over other races, to make the economy more transparent and based on merit.
His message was welcomed even by supporters of the political opposition, but there were concerns over whether he could make the old guard in his party accept the idea.
Today, ethnic minorities say they are no closer to meritocracy, especially in the enrolment of government universities.
Mr Najib's carefully cultivated image as a champion of national unity was shattered after he blamed his coalition's weaker majority on the lack of ethnic Chinese votes, calling it a "Chinese tsunami".
Prime Minister Najib encouraged the public to reach out to him through social media. He is active on Twitter and on Facebook and he even has a Chinese language Facebook page to communicate with Malaysian Chinese voters. For the first time in Malaysian history, the public could voice their concerns directly to the prime minister.
However, as public anger built against him, the authorities blocked access to news sites that covered the 1MDB scandal extensively and vowed to move against "rumour mongers".
One of the laws frequently used against government critics is the sedition act, which Mr Najib had initially promised to abolish but instead strengthened without explanation.
He did get rid of a raft of security laws that allowed for detention without trial, including the Internal Security Act. But activists said their replacements were just as bad.
Malaysia was also criticised for jailing opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim for sodomy, which was widely perceived as a politically trumped-up charge.
Mr Najib promised to take Malaysia from a country dependent on cheap exports and raw materials, to a high-income economy.
To invest in these projects, he needed more revenue by pushing through two key reforms that had been stalled for years.
He cut back food and fuel subsidies and implemented a broad-based consumption tax called the GST, despite fierce opposition from within his own party.
Economists such as Yeah Kim Leng have applauded this move.
They say that despite some reports of businesses raising their prices, the issues will be corrected in the long run and bring Malaysia in-line with international norms.
However, the latest financial scandal has renewed claims that Mr Najib could have increased revenues by cracking down on government waste and corruption rather than making Malaysians pay more.
Mr Najib wanted to take an active role in resolving issues between Muslims and non-Muslims.
Malaysia is currently facilitating peace talks between Muslim rebels and the Philippines and Thai government.
He also started a programme called the global movement of moderates, which gained support from US President Barack Obama and UK Prime Minister David Cameron.
"The real divide is not between Muslims and non-Muslims or between the developed and developing worlds. It is between moderates and extremists," he said in his address to the United Nations in 2010.
However, religious minorities accuse Mr Najib of failing to practice moderation at home and fuelling Islamisation.
He also alienated the country's two million Christians in his handling of a fight over the use of the Arabic term Allah.
Mr Najib's wife, Rosmah Mansor, is routinely criticised for her alleged love of luxury items and shopping sprees.
A series of pictures of her holding different coloured handbags, which sell for thousands of dollars each, circulated online.
The prime minister dismissed these claims of a lavish lifestyle as political-motivated assaults.
Ms Rosmah also angered struggling Malaysians when she lamented that she had to pay her hairstylist $400 (£260) for a home visit.
The allegations took a more serious turn when her bank account details were leaked at the height of her husband's financial scandal.
It was reported that some half a million dollars was deposited into her account, raising questions of where the money had come from.

Mourinho said he will field several youngsters for Sunday's match at Old Trafford, adding: "I hope you don't kill me when you see my team.

"I hope he tells Wilfried Zaha to go slow and leaves Christian Benteke at home. I hope he goes soft on us."

Palace boss Allardyce said he would be fielding "the fittest team we've got".
"Whether Jose plays a weakened side or not it'll be a difficult task. We've no Andros Townsend, but my team want to play at Old Trafford," he said.
Asked if he would have done the same as Mourinho in his position, Allardyce added: "There's no doubt about that. It'd be wrong to risk anyone for the final.

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Robert Fidler, from Salfords, in Surrey, has managed to prevent the destruction of his house since it was revealed in 2006.
He has received a three-month suspended sentence and has been ordered to knock it down by 6 June 2016.
BBC News looks back at how the story has developed.
In secret and hidden behind hay bales, Mr Fidler built his new home some time between 1999 and 2006.
It was not spotted when planning officers visited the farm on a separate issue in 2002, inadvertently taking a picture of the hay bales (above), but not noticing the "castle".
The hay bales were removed and Mr Fidler presented his castle - complete with ramparts - to the world.
Built in secret and with no planning permission, he claimed it was immune from enforcement action due to the "four-year rule".
This is a planning law which allows a building to become lawful if it has been complete for four years.
Fearing it had no choice, Reigate and Banstead Borough Council served an enforcement notice requiring the house to be demolished.
The authority said the home was built on the metropolitan green belt and was contrary to national and regional planning policies.
Mr Fidler claimed he started building the structure when the council did not answer his planning application within two months.
Mr Fidler took his case to the Planning Inspectorate and appealed against the decision.
He said: "There are two ways of getting planning permission, you either apply for it, which I did and they refused to process my planning application, so I took the alternative.
"If I build the house and they don't see it for four years then it becomes legal and that's the way I went about it."
However, the inspector dismissed his case saying the removal of the hay bales was an integral part of the building operations, therefore the house was not finished until the bales were removed.
In the meantime, Mr Fidler built a go-kart track, a lake, bridge and a "marquee structure" - all without planning permission.
A series of court battles followed, with Mr Fidler first taking his case to the High Court.
The judge dismissed his case, backing the council's decision.
He then went to the Court of Appeal. Again the council's decision was supported, while Mr Fidler's actions were described as a "paradigm of deception".
Events slowed as Mr Fiddler submitted several different planning applications to the council.
In June 2014 the council obtained a High Court injunction requiring Mr Fidler to comply with four outstanding enforcement notices.
The court gives Mr Fidler 90 days to demolish the castle.
In August the council lodged an application for a contempt of court hearing to take place after Mr Fidler failed to knock his home down.
The hearing date was set for 22 October, however, Mr Fidler failed to appear at court. The judge issued a warrant for his arrest and the hearing was rescheduled for 2 November.
Mr Fidler then arrived at court, claiming he missed the case believing it to be held later that day.
The hearing was rescheduled and on 9 November Mr Fidler was found in contempt of court.

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | Ms Hamilton was elected as a list MSP for the South of Scotland in 2016, but hopes to win the constituency seat vacated by Tory colleague John Lamont.
The Ettrick, Roxburgh and Berwickshire by-election will be held on 8 June, the same day as the snap general election.
Ms Hamilton's list seat remains with the Conservatives, with Michelle Ballantyne next on the list.
She leads the Conservative group on Borders Council, so a decision on whether she takes up the Holyrood seat will not be taken until after Thursday's council elections.
The Ettrick, Roxburgh and Berwickshire by-election was triggered by the resignation of Mr Lamont, who is contesting the corresponding Berwickshire, Roxburgh and Selkirk constituency in the Westminster election.
He is seeking to unseat the SNP's Calum Kerr, who has the slimmest majority in Scotland of 328 votes or 0.6% from the 2015 vote. Also contesting that election are former Labour MP Ian Davidson and Lib Dem Caroline Burgess.
Meanwhile in the Holyrood seat, which Mr Lamont held with a majority of 23.4% in 2016, Labour have put forward Sally Prentice and the Lib Dems are standing Catriona Bhatia. | Conservative MSP Rachael Hamilton has resigned from her seat to stand in a Holyrood by-election. |

"There are some really fast lads and it's going to be very tough but I will have to bring my A game to the races," the 29-year-old said.
The opening race of this year's festival will take place on Sunday.
Earlier this year, Kneen achieved his first Enkalon Trophy success on his BMW Superstock machine in the Irish Championship short circuit meeting at Bishopscourt.
And despite limited practice this week he leads the Superstock timesheets and has posted the fourth quickest lap on his Superbike.
Rico Penzkofer, ex-racer and Penz13.com BMW Motorrad Racing team principal said: "He is a proper Manxman and will be prepared for the fortnight in the best possible way - he literally lives the track."
Since his TT debut in 2009, Kneen has been a regular top-10 finisher with a best of fifth in the 2010 Supersport Race.
The 29-year-old made his Mountain Course debut in 2008 when he became the first rider in history to record three race wins in a week at the Manx Grand Prix.
He said: "This week the weather hasn't played ball, but I feel good. We are working hard to get all the bikes set up right and comfortable. I just need more laps now but we're all in the same boat.
"I looking forward to all the races but especially the big bikes. I'm much more confident on them now and much more experienced."

Scrum-half Rhys Webb, fly-half Rhys Priestland and hooker Ken Owens impressed from the bench at Twickenham.
"I think the bench deserve [a chance]," said assistant coach Rob Howley.
"Obviously when they've come on there's certainly been a change in the momentum of the game and they've made a huge impact.
"As coaches we'll sit down and have that selection [discussion]. It's a big game on Saturday and we respect Italy, so we'll be picking what [head coach] Warren Gatland feels is our best side for the game."
The team announcement is due on Tuesday.
Although Jenkins is back, fellow prop Tomas Francis could be suspended as he faces a disciplinary hearing this week.
The Exeter front-rower's fingers appeared to touch the eye area of England's Dan Cole during Wales' defeat at Twickenham.
That could mean Samson Lee and Rob Evans retain their places as the starting props, with either Owens or Scott Baldwin packing down between them at hooker.
Ospreys open-side Justin Tipuric is the likeliest replacement for Warburton in the back row, and there could be changes among the backs.
Webb's impact from the bench at Twickenham could mean the scrum-half makes his first start for Wales since suffering a serious foot injury in a World Cup warm-up match against Italy in September.
Wing Alex Cuthbert has failed to score in his last nine matches for Wales, his longest spell without an international try since he made his Test debut in 2011.

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | It made a profit of $3.53bn (£2.3bn) in the quarter, up from $3.03bn last year. Revenue was flat at $35bn.
The conglomerate has been trying to put its focus back on core industrial businesses, which include aviation and energy infrastructure.
It said orders for its aviation equipment jumped 47%.
Orders for oil and gas equipment and services, such as turbines and plant maintenance, rose 24%, said GE chairman and chief executive Jeff Immelt.
"In growth markets, equipment and service orders grew 17%. We ended the quarter with our biggest backlog in history," he said. Orders grew to $216bn in the first quarter from $210bn in the fourth quarter of 2012.
In the first three months of 2013 GE was awarded a $620m maintenance contract for QGC's Queensland Curtis liquified natural gas plant off the east coast of Australia.
It also won a contract to provide power equipment for the Emirates Aluminum smelter complex in Abu Dhabi, and another maintenance contract for a LNG project in Russia.
But the company said it had been affected by weaker-than-expected sales in Europe, especially in sales of power and water equipment.
"GE's markets were mixed. The US and growth markets were in line with expectations. We planned for a continued challenging environment in Europe, but conditions weakened further with Industrial segment revenues in the region down 17%," said Mr Immelt.
"We always anticipated that the first half of 2013 would be our toughest comparison," he added.

Your task is to generate a one-sentence summary based on the given document. | The piece has been created by artist Bill Viola as a companion piece to his Martyrs (Earth, Air, Fire, Water) work, unveiled at the London church in 2014.
The video triptych features Mary with Christ on her knee in one scene, while another shows a woman breastfeeding.
Viola has exhibited other "works for sacred spaces" at Durham Cathedral and Saint Mark's Basilica in Milan, Italy.
"Mary is a universal female figure present in nearly all spiritual and religious traditions," said the US artist.
"She is the personification of the feminine principle, related to ideas of creativity, procreation, inner strength, love and compassion."
The Reverend Canon Mark Oakley, chancellor of the cathedral, called the work "a contemporary contribution to a long tradition of reflection on the life and significance of Mary".
The triptych, he continued, "encompasses the great themes of birth, relationship and death which is our shared experience of being human."
Mary can be seen, free of charge, in specially escorted timed sessions held between 11:30 and 14:15 on every day except Sunday.
