Former rap music mogul Marion 'Suge' Knight's collapsed in a Los Angeles courtroom this afternoon after a judge ordered he be held on $25million bail in a murder case. Knight's attorney Matthew Fletcher said his client, who is diabetic and has a blood clot, told him that he hadn't received any medication since Thursday. Fletcher said Knight, 49, hit his head on a chair when he fell after the bail hearing. Scroll down for video . Medical emergency: Los Angeles Sheriff's deputies rush to assist Marion 'Suge' Knight, as he suddenly fainted during an appearance in court for a bail review hearing in his murder case in Los Angeles Friday . Purported injury: Knight's attorney said his client hit his head on a chair when he fell . Was it sticker shock? The rap mogul fainted after a judge set his bail at $25million in light of his violent history . On his own two feet: Knight walked unassisted when he was brought to court for his bail hearing . Bailiffs cleared the courtroom after Knight's medical episode and paramedics were seen going into the courtroom a few minutes later. Fletcher said Knight was unconscious when the lawyer left the courtroom and an update on his condition was not immediately available. Knight fell while deputies were bringing him back into the courtroom after Fletcher asked a judge to reconvene a hearing and issue an order that Knight be given his medication. The attorney said Knight is being kept in solitary confinement without proper access to medication. 'He's being treated worse than Charles Manson,' Fletcher said. A prosecutor said she believed the defendant staged the fainting spell 'in front of the cameras,' reported the Los Angeles Times. Earlier this month, Knight was hospitalized after complaining during a court hearing that he was suffering from blindness. In all, he's been taken away from the courthouse by ambulance four times. Since his arrest in late January, Knight has been complaining of his treatment in jail, claiming that he was being kept in solitary confinement, deprived of hot water and blankets, and seldom allowed to bathe. Talking to NBC Los Angeles, Matthew Fletcher said that moments before his client's collapse, Knight appeared ill and said he had not been given his medication. 'He was dripping sweat, like someone poured a bucket of water on him,' the lawyer said. Dripping sweat: Knight, 49, appeared extremely sweaty in court during Friday's turbulent bail hearing . Ailing man: The murder suspect, pictured in court left and right, is diabetic and has a blood clot . Knight stands accused of intentionally running down two men with a pickup truck at a Los Angeles area burger stand January 29 following an argument on the set of a commercial for the film Straight Outta Compton. Terry Carter, 55, was killed after being struck by a Ford F-150, while Cle 'Bone' Sloan, 51, survived his injuries. The 49-year-old co-founder of Death Row Records has pleaded not guilty to murder, attempted murder and hit-and-run charges. Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Ronald S. Coen set bail for Knight at a whopping $25million after Deputy District Attorney Cynthia Barnes noted that Knight was on bail in a robbery case at the time of the hit-and-run crash. Knight's attorney argued that his bail should be set at $2million, telling the judge that had his name not been Suge Knight, prosecutors 'wouldn't have filed the case.' In seeking the multimillion-dollar bail, the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office filed an extensive motion of 295 pages of legal papers and supporting material portraying Knight as a career criminal and repeated violator of probation and parole dating back to 1987. The motion alleges that Knight is ‘physically incapable of stopping his violent criminal behavior’ and that since being released from prison in 2002 he ‘has continued his repugnant life of crime.’ Claim of mistreatment: Knight's attorney Matthew Fletcher said his client told him that he hadn't received any medication since Thursday . Cle 'Bone' Sloan (left) and Terry Carter (right) were the victims of the hit-and-run. Carter died of his injuries, while Sloan is recovering and allegedly told police that he 'f***** up' Knight before being run over . The documents also alleged that Knight is part of an ‘ongoing extortion scheme’ in which new rappers arriving in Los Angeles and Las Vegas are ‘required to pay a “tax"’ to Knight. Knight has pleaded innocent and his lawyers have denied that he intentionally tried to kill Carter and Sloan. Matthew Fletcher also says Knight is blind in his left eye and may not have seen clearly during the incident. Knight has previous convictions for assault with a deadly weapon and could face 25 years to life in prison under California's so-called three-strikes law if he is convicted at trial .

Angel di Maria's old mansion is up for sale - but Manchester United fans need not worry that it means he is on his way out of Old Trafford. The Argentina international has not returned to the £4.15million, luxury six-bedroom pad in the leafy Cheshire village of Prestbury since an attempted break-in at the end of January.

Nigel Farage today lost another UKIP election candidate who has quit the party in protest at 'unforgivable racist abuse' from a senior MEP. Tim Wilson rounded on Mr Farage for ignoring the widespread condemnation of Scotland MEP David Coburn, who recently compared a Muslim minister in the Scottish Government to convicted terrorist Abu Hamza. In his resignation letter, Mr Wilson, who was due to stand for UKIP in South Northamptonshire – and was tipped to come second behind the Tories – claimed he has been 'forbidden to speak about Islam favourably' by party bosses. Ukip leader Nigel Farage defended Ukip MEP David Coburn who compared a Muslim minister in the Scottish Government to convicted terrorist Abu Hamza. Ukip candidate Tim Wilson rounded on Mr Farage for ignoring the widespread condemnation of the remark . The move has piled more pressure on Mr Coburn to resign and comes just days after another candidate, Jonathan Stanley, quit in protest at the 'racist filth' in UKIP. Mr Stanley, who was due to stand in the Cumbrian seat of Westmorland and Lonsdale, was the party's former head of policy in Scotland. UKIP has also lost two other General Election candidates in recent days in separate incidents. MEP Janice Atkinson was expelled after her chief of staff was filmed allegedly attempting to make fraudulent expense claims. The party's candidate for Scunthorpe Stephen Howd, was suspended last week following an 'alleged incident at his workplace'. Mr Coburn's recent controversial comment was made during a telephone conversation with the Scottish Daily Mail earlier this month, in which he spoke about his appearance on BBC Two show The Big Immigration Debate. He claimed that SNP Europe and International Development minister Humza Yousaf was supposed to appear on the programme, and said: 'Humza Yousaf, or as I call him, Abu Hamza, didn't seem to turn up.' Ukip's only Scottish MEP David Coburn is facing calls to resign . Mr Coburn has since apologised for the remark and Mr Farage has dismissed it as a 'joke in poor taste', adding today: 'That's David… that's the way he is.' But Mr Wilson told the Mail: 'What Coburn said is unforgiveable - it's racist abuse. It doesn't matter whether it was a private comment, or a public comment, this man has public office and he needs to filter the ridiculous thoughts that come from his brain. 'He should be dismissed from UKIP and held to account.' He added: 'Mr Farage cannot dismiss something like this as a joke. You can't toss this thing off as a joke with a pint of beer. It's unacceptable. 'If a leader cannot understand that it is the effect of his words not his intention that matters then maybe he too needs to consider his position and I would be the first to welcome Mr Farage into the political wilderness.' In his resignation letter to the local party, seen by the Mail, Mr Wilson wrote: 'Since selection, I have been systematically gagged by the party 'whip' and forbidden to speak about Islam favourably… . 'Ironically, while I am told not to talk positively about Islam, a Scottish MEP and member of UKIP has used appalling language that should never be condoned and that must be described as Islamophobic. Mr Farage has dismissed this as a joke. 'This is a red line, therefore, that has been crossed. This is not a joke to me. 'In an interview today, I have criticised both Mr Farage and the Scottish MEP and for that reason, I cannot and will not represent UKIP at an election. 'However, if the party is to progress, it must certainly deal with the thugs and bullies who currently have positions of power and whose appalling views are both tolerated and/or presented as party policy.' Mr Wilson was selected as the party's candidate in February, and joined UKIP last year after leaving the Tories. Earlier today, UKIP leader Mr Farage continued to defend Mr Coburn. He said: 'What's he done wrong apart from telling a joke in poor taste? 'That's David, he's out there, that's the way he is. There was no malintent in it. ‎It was a joke in very poor taste. I wish he would think a bit more before he tells such jokes again.' Nicola Sturgeon arrives at The Scottish Parliament with Humza Yousaf - described by Ukip's David Coburn as Abu Hamza . But Mr Yousaf, MSP for Glasgow, said: 'UKIP's pathetic response to religious hatred, racism and bigotry has exposed them as a party that is so out of touch with people that even their own senior members are abandoning them. 'I welcome Tim Wilson's resignation. He has demonstrated that he is unwilling to be associated with a party that allows Islamophobia to be rife within its ranks. 'Serious accusations have been made about UKIP actively preventing their members talking positively about Islam. Nigel Farage should heed warnings from his own members and demonstrate that he will not tolerate prejudice in any form by expelling David Coburn without any further delay.' A spokesman for UKIP said: 'Tim Wilson was never gagged or told that he could not speak about Islam. 'When Mr Wilson submitted some videos that he intended to use as a viral campaigning tool, all that his regional officers advised him to do was produce shorter videos focused on national issues such as the NHS, not five minutes or more discussing the nuances of Islam in Britain.'

MEP David Coburn's said he called the SNP's Humza Yousaf 'Abu Hamza' Nigel Farage said the comment was merely a 'joke in poor taste' Ukip leader rejects cross-party demands to kick the MEP out of the party . Ukip election candidate Tim Wilson rounds on Farage for defending gibe .

Mount Everest towers over Nepal and although many people dream of scaling its summit, there are beautifully remote villages, farms and monasteries nestled within its huge shadow that are also worth a visit. Last year Google took its Street View cameras on a 10-day trek around the Khumbu region - also known as the Everest region - to explore these quaint landmarks and locations. During the trek the cameras captured the small Sherpa village of Thame, the Phortse Thakiri Chholing Gomba monastery and Khumjung inside the Sagarmatha National Park. Scroll down for video . Google recently took its Street View cameras on a 10-day trek around the Khumbu region - also known as the Everest region - (pictured) to explore the remote villages and landmarks of Nepal. During the trek the cameras captured the small Sherpa village of Thame, the Phortse Thakiri Chholing Gomba monastery and Khumjung inside the Sagarmatha National Park . The trek was led by Apa Sherpa, a 55-year-old Sherpa mountaineer who holds the world record for reaching the summit of Mount Everest 21 times - more than any other person. He scaled the summit for the first time at the age of 30. In 2009, Apa founded the non-profit Apa Sherpa Foundation to help the local community of young people in the Khumbu region. The Street View images were captured in March 2014 when Apa took members of Google Earth Outreach, and the Nepalese nonprofit Story Cycle through the region. Mount Everest is the Earth's highest mountain, with a peak at 8,848 metres above sea level. In 1865, Everest was given its official English name by the Royal Geographical Society upon a recommendation by Andrew Waugh, the British Surveyor General of India. Mr Waugh named the mountain after his predecessor in the post, Sir George Everest. It has become a mecca for climbers, and has two main climbing routes, the southeast ridge from Nepal and the north ridge from Tibet. The southeast ridge was the route used by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay when they reached the summit for the first time in 1953. 'Our region is famous for being home to Everest, but it’s also the home of the Sherpa community and has been for centuries,' Apa said. 'The region has much more to offer than just the mountain. So last year, I guided the Google Maps team through my home region to collect Street View imagery that improves the map of our community. 'Now you can find Thame on the map and explore other communities nestled at the base of Everest, like Khumjung and Phortse.' Thame, and neighbouring upper Thame are small Sherpa villages in the Solukhumbu District of Nepal. Tenzing Norgay, one of the first people to climb Mount Everest with Sir Edmund Hillary grew up in the region and the Thame monastery is one of the oldest in Khumbu. Another village captured by the Street View trekkers was Khumjung. It sits 13,000ft (3,970 metres) above sea level near Mount Khumbila. It is located inside the word heritage site Sagarmatha National Park. 'When people ask what it feels like to reach the top of Mount Everest, I say "heaven,"' added Apa. 'My hope is that my children and future generations have many choices for employment outside of mountaineering.' But the images don't just feature peaks and landscapes. Google also captured parts of the Phortse farming village in the Khumbu Valley including the Thakiri Chholing Gomba, or small monastery. Paintings inside the monastery began in 2008 by Buddhist artists and were completed by the end of 2009 using funding from the Greater Himalayas Foundation. The trek was led by Apa Sherpa (pictured), a 55-year-old Sherpa mountaineer who holds the world record for reaching the summit of Mount Everest 21 times - more than any other person. He scaled the summit for the first time at the age of 30.In 2009, Apa founded the non-profit Apa Sherpa Foundation to help the local community of young people in the Khumbu region .

Google also captured parts of Phortse in the Khumbu Valley, including the Thakiri Chholing Gomba, or small monastery (pictured). The paintings on the monastery walls were started in 2008 by Buddhist artists using funding from the Greater Himalayas Foundation . 'Partnering with Google Maps allowed us to get important local landmarks on the map and share a richer view of Khumbu with the world, including local monasteries, lodges, schools and more, with some yaks along the way!,' continued Apa.

We’ll be ready to welcome you.' Everest is one of 14 mountain peaks on Earth that stand taller than 26,000ft (8,000m) and the local Nepalese name for it is Sagarmatha, which means 'mother of the universe.' Mount Everest is the tallest of these so-called ‘eight-thousanders’ and is the standard to which all other mountains are compared. All 14 of them are found in China, Pakistan or Nepal. Everest’s geological story began 40 million years ago when the Indian subcontinent began a slow-motion collision with Asia. The edges of the two continents were forced together and formed the tall ridges that make up the Himalayas today. Glaciers have chiselled Mount Everest’s summit into a huge, triangular pyramid, defined by three faces and three ridges that extend to the northeast, southeast, and northwest. The southeastern ridge is the most widely used climbing route. It is the one Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay followed in May 1953 when they became the first climbers to reach the summit and return safely. Despite its reputation as an extremely dangerous mountain, commercial guiding has done much to improve the safety of the Everest ascent. As of March 2012, there had been 5,656 successful ascents of Everest, although 223 people had died at fatality rate of 4 per cent. The satellite image was taken in December, just weeks after Nasa captured the rivers of black lava snaking over the snow-covered slopes of the stratovolcano Mount Etna in Sicily. In 2012, mountaineer and filmmaker David Breashears took 477 individual images to create gigapixel image of the Khumbu glacier from the Pumori viewpoint near Mount Everest.

These jaw-dropping holiday snaps taken by a group of daredevil tourists in Norway may be some of the most dangerous ever taken. The series of photos shows the friends taking turns as they stand on top of a boulder that is wedged between a mountain crevice in Norway, with a direct drop of nearly 800ft. The incredible experience provides impressive views for those who are brave enough to step foot on the boulder, but those who are afraid of heights would become weak at the knees and think better of it. Scroll down for video . Ronny Randen, 39, took the photos while he was travelling with five friends to climb Preikestolen, also known as Pulpit Rock . Kjeragbolten – the official name for the boulder – is located on the edge of the Kjerag mountain in Rogaland, Norway. It is situated more than 3,500ft above sea level and is a popular photo spot for thrill-seekers who are willing to risk their lives for a memorable holiday photo. Despite the rain making its surface slippery the group of visitors in these photos ventured onto the boulder and posed with their arms in the air or a thumb extended as other tourists waited their turn. Software developer Ronny Randen, 39, took the photos while he was travelling with five friends to climb Preikestolen, also known as Pulpit Rock. Kjeragbolten – the official name for the boulder – is located on the edge of the Kjerag mountain in Rogaland, Norway . He said: ‘During our visit if was a rainy, and the boulder was actually a bit slippery. There's a little path on the left side where you can jump onto the rock. ‘It's hard to describe the feeling of standing on the boulder. After walking up the mountains your legs are a bit tired, and the idea of jumping onto, and balancing on, a slippery boulder hanging above a fjord seems like a really bad idea. ‘But, to be honest, it's not hard getting out there, and it is well worth it.’ Mr Randen, dressed in blue, can be seen posing on the boulder with his hands in the air and in one photo, taken from a distance, shows the stunning view and terrifying drop. Despite the rain making its surface slippery the group of visitors in these photos ventured onto the boulder for some memorable snaps . Mr Randen, who lives just outside Oslo, said the hike up to Kjeragbolten is demanding as it involves three steep climbs. He added: ‘Most of the time you walk on smooth rock and boulders and because it was rainy and foggy it was a bit slippery. ‘There are metal chains along the steepest climbs of the trail. When we finally arrived at the boulder it was rather foggy but after a while it started to clear up and we were rewarded with a stunning view of the Lysefjord. ‘The whole experience was so breathtaking and just looking at the images now really takes me back there. ‘It's not a place you go very often as it's a bit remote, but it's such an amazing piece of art from nature that it is definitely worth going.’

(CNN)Texas Sen. Ted Cruz will announce Monday that he is launching his campaign to become the 2016 Republican nominee for president. Cruz has been positioning for this nomination almost since he entered the upper chamber in 2012. His announcement takes place at a bastion of conservatism, Liberty University, the institution founded by evangelical leader Jerry Falwell. Cruz is going to run from the right. He has spent much of his short career in Washington blasting the "mushy middle" of his party (which might be news to most Democrats), which he dismisses as a "failed electoral strategy." During a recent visit to New Hampshire, where he vowed to eliminate the Department of Education and the Internal Revenue Service, Cruz said that "I'm pretty sure, here in New Hampshire, y'all define gun control like we do in Texas: Gun control is when you hit at what you aim at." Fifty years ago, another Republican senator ran this kind of campaign, Arizona's Barry Goldwater, who took on President Lyndon Johnson. Cruz will test the conventional wisdom that Goldwater's strategy was and remains a failure. When Republicans voted to nominate him in 1964, Goldwater told the delegates that "extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice. And moderation in the pursuit of justice no virtue." When the icon of moderate Republicans, New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller, spoke to the convention, the delegates hissed and booed. The outcome was far from great for the GOP. Johnson defeated Goldwater in a landslide election that brought in huge liberal Democratic majorities that passed the exact programs that conservatives abhorred. Although Goldwater was clearly wrong when he ran in 1964, Cruz thinks that the times have changed. Is he right? Right now, the chances are not great. If Cruz really sticks to this strategy of extremism, he faces very long odds of making it to the White House. The strategy might help him to garner some primary votes against Jeb Bush in red states, but it is not an approach with a great track record. Even as the Republican Party has shifted to the right in recent decades, Republican candidates who have obtained the nomination, and those who have also won the presidency, always developed campaign themes that allowed them to appeal to broader coalitions than voters on the extremes. Ronald Reagan had anti-communism and tax cuts to attract voters into one big tent, and George H.W. Bush had a thousand points of light. His son George W. Bush emphasized policies tied to "compassionate conservatism" to prove that he was not an extreme zealot. Even Republicans who didn't win in the general elections, like John McCain and Mitt Romney, did not win the primary and caucus tallies by only playing to the base. Notwithstanding the conventional wisdom, even in primaries it seems that Republican voters understand the importance of finding someone who has the potential to win in November. This coming election will be tough for Republicans. As all the experts have shown, the electoral college math does not favor the GOP. Some experts have predicted that Democrats have over an 80% chance of winning the Electoral College. According to the Washington Post, if one looks at the states where the margin was narrow in the 2012 election, five currently favor Democrats (Florida, Iowa, Minnesota, Ohio and Pennsylvania) while in others, like Colorado, Democrats have a very good chance of winning as a result of demographic trends, namely growing minority populations that favor their party's nominee. Barring any dramatic changes in the coming months, Democrats will also have a very strong and seasoned nominee in Hillary Clinton. Cruz is also not just someone who defends extremism but a politician who can easily be tied to the congressional obstructionism that has turned off so much of the electorate. The Republican Party has been dragged down by the kind of politics that voters have observed in Washington. In 2014, congressional approval ratings plummeted to 14%. As the new year began, the approval ratings were only slightly better: just 16%. This is the congressional Republicanism where Cruz comes from. Many voters who like conservatism and the GOP don't love what their representatives are doing on Capitol Hill. The kind of scorched earth, always say no to anything politics has not done well in terms of the favorability ratings. There have been few practitioners of this style of legislative politics as prominent as Cruz. During his campaign for the presidency, he might pay the price for the kind of politics that brought him great attention in Congress. When Goldwater squared off against Johnson in 1964, the President predicted that there would be a "frontlash" of Republican and independent voters who would move way from the GOP just because Goldwater was at the top of the ticket. This was Johnson's response to predictions of a backlash in the South from Democrats who were angry about civil rights. The frontlash, Johnson explained to Bill Moyers is "liberals, independents, moderate Republicans." The electorate is not as likely to experience any dramatic swings like we saw in Midwestern states in 1964, where solidly Republican areas went Democratic because they were scared off by Goldwater, but a Cruz campaign could be exactly what Democrats need to cement victories in the swing states where the outcome is still uncertain. Monday, Cruz will bask in the spotlight of his announcement. But Republicans are going to have to really think hard about whether they want to put all of their electoral eggs in this volatile basket which, at least based on the history, has a very slim chance of winning.

Julian Zelizer: If Ted Cruz follows Barry Goldwater's path, he and his party could lose big . Contrary to conventional wisdom, GOP primary voters are more interested in victory than ideology, he says .

The last the world knew of Pia Farrenkopf, she had withdrawn $1,500 from her checking account in February 25, 2009. Friends and family didn't see or hear from the woman they described as fun and intelligent in the years since, but they chalked it up to Farrenkopf's solitary tendencies. Meanwhile, letters piled up in her mailbox in the middle-class neighborhood where she lived in Pontiac, Michigan, before being taken back to the Post Office as unclaimed. Mummified: Pia Farrenkopf, who was 44 when authorities believe she died, sat for five years in the backseat of her car mummified . A family member even tried to phone in 2012 to tell Farrenkopf her mother had died, but never got a response. Mortgage payments kept being deducted automatically from bank accounts flush with cash from Farrenkopf's job at ALLTEL Information Services, where she had once programmed banking software. It was not until the money ran out in 2013 and the bank foreclosed that Farrenkopf was finally discovered. The Detroit Free Press reports two repairmen, hired to patch a hole in the roof, found her in 2014, slumped in the backseat of the Jeep Liberty parked in her garage, mummified. Investigators later noted she was found surrounded by hundreds of unopened letters and several empty packs of cigarettes. She had $500 in cash in her pockets and a partially drank bottle of wine by her side. Detectives couldn't find a single fingerprint on the bottle. The home was in a state of chaos and disrepair - a far cry from the way her friend Joan Gill Strack said Farrenkopf liked to keep her home. Scene: Neighbors said they helped clear the driveway and mow the lawn while they believed Farrenkopf was still in the home, though many eventually moved away . World traveler: Farrenkopf traveled to England and Scotland, as well as around the United States, while working programming banking software for ALLTEL Information Services . 'Her house was well-kept, very clean, very tidy,' Strack said. 'She liked things picked up and ordered.' But police found the floors littered with empty soda bottles, more unopened mail, loose clothing and refuse. Black mold had invaded after the sump pump broke down, with dark spots dotting the walls. Strack, who had worked with Farrenkopf when the two lived in Little Rock, Arkansas, said she was 'fun to be around' and 'very, very good at her job,' and traveled to Scotland and England and throughout the US for work. Still, Farrenkopf was never extremely social. Siblings recalled long stretches of time where they wouldn't hear from Farrenkopf, who would often not return phone calls. Fun and smart: Farrenkopf, pictured in this undated photo taken at a coworker's birthday celebration, was described as an excellent employee . Mysterious: Darryl Tillery, a neighbor, said he could not have known that the solitary Farrenkopf was in her garage for five years . Then a postcard or call came from a far-flung destination like Austria. 'Sometimes she would go, literally, for years without us hearing from her,' one sister, Jean LeBlanc, who lives in the Boston area near where Pia and her nine siblings grew up, told the Free Press. 'And then all of a sudden, she'd show up, so nobody ever thought anything about it.' Strack remembers how easily Farrenkopf could cut people out of her life when, after a friend showed up a few hours late for a party without calling, she immediately ended the relationship. 'Pia told her she was done with her,' Strack said. 'She didn't speak to her after that.' Strack said her own friendship with Farrenkopf ended in 2001, though she could provide few details beyond saying that they were together too much. Yet Farrenkopf was by all accounts still doing well. She continued working at Pontiac Fidelity National Information Services, where she was an 'exemplary employee,' management told the Free Press. She even began planning to open a small business of her own - a fitness business in nearby Waterford called Slender Lady. LeBlanc, who managed a Curves location in Massachusetts, agreed to travel to Texas with her sister in 2003, where the two attended a two-week seminar on health in preparation for Farrenkopf opening her business. Past due: Bills and letters would stack up in Farrenkopf's mailbox and then be returned to the Post Office unclaimed, a letter carried told the US Postal Inspector in 2014 . Towed: Authorities dragged out the 2003 green Jeep Liberty that once belonged to Farrenkopf where she was found dead and mummified . That plan was never fully realized. Court records showed the owners of the property sued Farrenkopf in 2005 for breaking her lease, though Farrenkopf never responded to the complaint. Credit card companies also initiated three lawsuits against her from 2005 to 2007 over unpaid bills, receiving judgments that added up to over $15,000. Her homeowners association placed liens totaling more than $2,000 against unpaid dues for the association. Farrenkopf wasn't always shut in her home, though it was often unclear where she was. Officers checked on her home in 2005, when neighbors told them they had not seen her in a month. Inside the home, police said they rescued her abandoned cat, Bungie, and white poodle, Baby, but while the pets were kept in a shelter - Baby was later adopted - there's no evidence Farrenkopf came to collect them. Sister Mary Mulligan looks over an image of Pia Farrenkopf in the 1983 Cardinal Cushing Central High School, an all-girls Catholic school yearbook in Boston (file photo) In May 2008, she resigned from her job under circumstances that are unclear, then in October of that year, she was cited for driving with a suspended license, expired plates and no proof of insurance. There's no record of Farrenkopf after the 2009 cash withdrawal, and investigators, who checked credit card statements and subpoenaed bank, phone and health records in a 'massively thorough' search say her cause of death is undeterminable. 'There was no trauma to body, so it only leads to a couple conclusions,' Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard said. 'Either it was a medical situation that led to her death or something self-induced.' Medical records showed Farrenkopf, who was 44 when investigators believe she died, smoked more than a pack a day and in spite of being worried about her liver, drank regularly. Other family members dealt with cancer, heart disease, high blood pressure and kidney disease, according to that report. But the tank in the car still had two gallons of gas left, which led investigators to rule out carbon monoxide poisoning and her organs were so mummified, according to deputy medical examiner Dr Bernardino Pacris, making a toxicology report impossible. The case is now inactive, leaving relatives wondering what happened to their sister that would have ended her life quietly and out of sight. 'I just don't understand why anybody would sit in the backseat of their own car. And just stay there,' LeBlanc said. 'Why would you do that?'

Pia Farrenkopf of Pontiac was found mummified in the backseat of her car . Investigators believe she died at 44 in 2009 but it wasn't until 2014 her body was discovered . Relatives and a friend described Farrenkopf, who lived alone, as smart and fun but often solitary . Her remains were in such a state of desiccation that the medical examiner was unable to conduct a full autopsy and the cause of death is unknown . She was only discovered after bank foreclosed on her house .

Hundreds of people were targeted by the scam with fraudsters posing as TalkTalk employees on the phone (file image) A major security breach has left thousands of TalkTalk customers at the mercy of fraudsters. Criminals have stolen account numbers, addresses and phone numbers from the phone and broadband firm’s computers. The details have been used in attempts to scam hundreds of customers so far, with one man having £2,800 stolen from his bank account. Masquerading as TalkTalk staff, the fraudsters phone their victims and try to make them disclose their bank details. It is not known how many of these customers were successfully tricked and had money stolen from them. The company, which has four million customers in all, has now sent an email to every one to warn them of the ruse. One of the techniques used by the fraudsters is to offer their victims a credit in return for their bank details. The customer then finds that their account has been emptied. The fraudulent callers are convincing because they have the customer’s details to hand. TalkTalk claims only a few thousand account details have gone astray. The data theft came to light when the company investigated a sudden rise in complaints about scam calls between October and December. TalkTalk insisted it had not been hacked and that the leak came instead from a third party contractor which had legitimate access to customer accounts. Customers have taken to the company’s internet forum to air their grievances. One, who received a call from a suspected scammer, said a more prominent warning about the hacking incident should have been given earlier and ‘not hidden away at the bottom of a lengthy marketing email’. ‘Hacking is a worldwide problem – it happens and you have to let us know immediately, not hide it away,’ he wrote. ‘My 85-year-old mother who is a TT customer could well have been taken in when the guy quoted all the correct info.’ Another angry customer wrote: ‘After months and months of being lied to by TalkTalk you are now finally admitting that you have had a security breach and that our details were accessed from your database.’ He said several members of staff had denied there was a problem, adding: ‘You should be ashamed of yourselves as it is your customers who have suffered and in some cases like my own, have suffered financially.’ Another wrote on the forum: ‘This internet provider must have the worst security and data protection for its customers in the business.’ The company says it was not hacked but that the details were stolen by a third party. It investigated following a new wave of complaints last year . A further disgruntled customer accused TalkTalk of conducting a damage limitation exercise: ‘It’s only taken them months to decide to come out and let customers know, or should I say forced to come out and let them know, as they had no option as word spread.’ Others highlighted problems of dealing with call centres in India. In a statement, TalkTalk said: ‘We have become aware that some limited, non-sensitive information about some customers could have been illegally accessed in violation of our security procedures. ‘We are aware of a small, but nonetheless significant, number of customers who have been directly targeted by these criminals and we have been supporting them directly.’ The firm said the problem had also been reported to the Information Commissioner’s Office. Graeme Smith had £2,800 stolen from him but claim neither his bank nor TalkTalk will reimburse him . Graeme Smith told yesterday how his bank and TalkTalk have refused to refund him £2,815 stolen from his current account. The 61-year-old HR expert was fooled by ‘extremely slick and believable’ fraudsters who claimed to be from a TalkTalk fraud department probing computer hacking. He was kept on the phone for hours by the team of three criminals and tricked into allowing them access to his computer to remove a bug supposedly left by a hacker. They told him he would receive a £250 credit for his trouble. When he later checked his account at a cash machine the £2,815 had gone. ‘I feel like a fool – I’m not naive, but they completely took me in,’ said Mr Smith, from Chester-le-Street, County Durham. ‘I’m extremely fed up and frustrated with TalkTalk and will be leaving them in future. 'They have not provided me with any support at all and I’ve been forced to wait for days for anyone to contact me.

Mike Holpin, a recovering alcoholic from Ebbw Vale in Monmouthshire, has an unusual way of keeping track of his children. With 22 that carry his last name, 18 who don't and 'probably a few more', Mr Holpin is one of the UK's most prolific fathers with offspring aged between 37 and three. To keep track of all his children, who were born to 20 different mothers, he has had their names tattooed across his back. Scroll down for video . Prolific: Mike Holpin, 56, has 40 children with 20 different women but thinks he may have more . Although he insists that he loves all of his children, Mr Holpin is no longer in touch with some, while others were removed by social services thanks to his alcoholism and womanising. Nevertheless, he says he is a changed character who wants nothing more than to reunite his vast brood - and would like to add a few more if he can. 'I'm as fertile as sin,' he explains. 'I don't believe in contraception and I love sex.' According to Mr Holpin, his first sexual experience came aged nine but his baby-making career didn't really get underway until he got a job at a fairground in his late teens. 'Boys working on rides like that, they're only there for one reason and that's to pull women,' he reminisces. 'Good looking boys are better but funny boys are spectacular.

Niall Boylan and his biological sister Fran Kavanagh, pictured during their first meeting last week, when they were reunited 50 years after being separated . A brother and sister who were separated as babies and put up for adoption five decades ago have been reunited after realising they grew up just 500 metres apart. Niall Boylan, 51, a radio presenter in Dublin, met his biological sister who now lives in London, Fran Kavanagh, 49, for the first time this weekend after finding each other online last year. Niall, who has a show on Irish radio station 4FM, hit the headlines last year when he spoke about discovering that his birth mother had a little girl when he was just 13 months old in 1965. He said he only learned that he had a sister when the information was disclosed ‘casually’ in a letter from the adoption agency. Niall had been adopted from St Patrick’s Home on Dublin’s Navan Road by Frank and Lily Boylan, and grew up in Raheny with the couple’s biological daughter Geraldine and a younger brother Arthur, who was also adopted. His decision to speak out last year led indirectly to the reunion with sister Fran, who had begun the process of finding out more about the circumstances of her own birth. She was adopted in 1966 by Maria and Christopher Kavanagh from Glasnevin. In recent years, Fran’s sister told her that her birth mother had turned to the courts to try to keep her. ‘I felt I needed to know more,’ she said. ‘When I was given my birth weight and other basic details, I couldn’t believe it.’ Fran went on to meet her birth mother four years ago, an encounter she describes as ‘overwhelming’. However, her birth mother did not tell her about the existence of brother Niall. Last year, she was contacted by an adoption agency telling her they had received a letter from her older brother who wanted to get in touch.  They added that he had announced his wish ‘publicly’. ‘When I heard “publicly”, I was really confused, so myself and my partner Googled “Niall” and “St Patrick’s Home”, and up came this story about Niall. I knew it had to be him. I made contact immediately and we talked for hours.’ St Patrick's mother and baby home on the Navan Road in Dublin, where Niall and Fran's mother was living with them as babies and from where they were adopted .

He was adopted by Frank and Lily Boylan, and grew up in Raheny with the couple’s biological daughter Geraldine and a younger brother Arthur, who was also adopted . Niall's original birth document, which registers his birth at St Patrick's Home on September 21, 1963 . She flew to meet her brother for the first time last weekend, along with her partner, and the pair went for dinner and a night out together. ‘It went really well,’ said Niall. ‘We are both delighted. We had spoken on the phone and on Facebook and then finally we met. ‘She’s very like me in many ways. I could hear her personality and we are very similar. You never know how these things will go but this went really well.’ ‘We were in the same crowd, we knew the same people, it’s crazy to think that,’ Niall said. ‘Imagine if we’d ended up going out with each other? This is why people need to know who they are.’ His sister, who has two adult children, said: ‘To meet Niall after all these years is wonderful.’ Both were struck by the fact that they grew up in close proximity to one another. Fran, who works as an estate agent and has a son, 27, and daughter, 22, said: ‘I was born in November 1965, just 13 months after Niall and we would have been in St Patrick’s at the same time. ‘We definitely overlapped, but we were never told.’ Fran’s adoptive family, the Kavanaghs, who she is no longer in touch with after her adopted parents died when she was a teenager, moved from Glasnevin to Raheny, where Niall lived, in 1969. ‘So we were only down the road from each other,’ she pointed out. ‘I went to Tamangos nightclub and Niall would have DJ’d there. We were definitely in each other’s company.’ Niall is a radio presenter on Irish station Classic Hits 4FM. It was through his high media profile that Fran was easily able to track him down and contacted him through his email on the station's website . The pair found out about each other after being sent a letter from an adoption agency. Fran was given the name of her brother and began searching for him online and came across the Irish DJ and got in touch . She pointed out that one of Niall's best friends even DJ'd at her 21st birthday party. Both Niall, a father of three, and Fran have met their biological mother in recent years. She gave birth to a third child, whose care she initially entrusted to her sister-in-law. She eventually married and had a fourth child, and raised her two youngest children with her husband, who was never told of the existence of Niall and Fran. They have considerable sympathy for their birth mother. Niall said: ‘I feel sorry for my mother: she’s old and doesn’t remember a huge amount. ‘She said they [the St Patrick’s home mothers] could be sent out to clean a church, and come back to find their baby gone. ‘She said the mothers would slip notes into their babies’ nappies in the hope that the adoptive parents would keep them and give them to the children later.’ However, Niall says he has drawn a blank in researching his birth father. ‘I asked my mother, “Who is my father?” She was really vague, and said he worked in a church. I asked her was he a priest and she wouldn’t say.’ Fran explained that she had little interest in discovering her background until recent years. Learning ‘basic details’ about her early days, such as her birth weight, made her curious. ‘It was, like, up until then, I wasn’t even born but here I was, on paper, with another life that I didn’t know anything about. ‘I was 46 when I met my mother, and she was 80. She is a frail woman and I had no axe to grind with her. I wasn’t there to beat her up, it was just to meet her. ‘I feel so sorry for those women: they were treated so badly and for her to have found us all means so much to her. Fran Kavanagh (right) with her 27-year-old son (centre) and her 22-year-old daughter (left) together recently . ‘I’m delighted now that I found out. I feel kind of guilty that I didn’t do more before I was 46 but I just accepted the situation. I believed I was a lucky child because I had been adopted. ‘But I could have met Niall a lot sooner.’ The pair plan to meet up again the future and Fran, who will be 50 this year, is holding her birthday party back home in Dublin.

However, her birth mother did not tell her about the existence of brother Niall. Last year, she was contacted by an adoption agency telling her they had received a letter from her older brother who wanted to get in touch.  They added that he had announced his wish ‘publicly’. ‘When I heard “publicly”, I was really confused, so myself and my partner Googled “Niall” and “St Patrick’s Home”, and up came this story about Niall. I knew it had to be him. I made contact immediately and we talked for hours.’ St Patrick's mother and baby home on the Navan Road in Dublin, where Niall and Fran's mother was living with them as babies and from where they were adopted . Niall when he was a baby (left) and as a toddler (right). He was adopted by Frank and Lily Boylan, and grew up in Raheny with the couple’s biological daughter Geraldine and a younger brother Arthur, who was also adopted . Niall's original birth document, which registers his birth at St Patrick's Home on September 21, 1963 . She flew to meet her brother for the first time last weekend, along with her partner, and the pair went for dinner and a night out together. ‘It went really well,’ said Niall. ‘We are both delighted. We had spoken on the phone and on Facebook and then finally we met. ‘She’s very like me in many ways. I could hear her personality and we are very similar. You never know how these things will go but this went really well.’ ‘We were in the same crowd, we knew the same people, it’s crazy to think that,’ Niall said. ‘Imagine if we’d ended up going out with each other? This is why people need to know who they are.’ His sister, who has two adult children, said: ‘To meet Niall after all these years is wonderful.’ Both were struck by the fact that they grew up in close proximity to one another. Fran, who works as an estate agent and has a son, 27, and daughter, 22, said: ‘I was born in November 1965, just 13 months after Niall and we would have been in St Patrick’s at the same time. ‘We definitely overlapped, but we were never told.’ Fran’s adoptive family, the Kavanaghs, who she is no longer in touch with after her adopted parents died when she was a teenager, moved from Glasnevin to Raheny, where Niall lived, in 1969. ‘So we were only down the road from each other,’ she pointed out. ‘I went to Tamangos nightclub and Niall would have DJ’d there. We were definitely in each other’s company.’ Niall is a radio presenter on Irish station Classic Hits 4FM. It was through his high media profile that Fran was easily able to track him down and contacted him through his email on the station's website . The pair found out about each other after being sent a letter from an adoption agency. Fran was given the name of her brother and began searching for him online and came across the Irish DJ and got in touch . She pointed out that one of Niall's best friends even DJ'd at her 21st birthday party. Both Niall, a father of three, and Fran have met their biological mother in recent years. She gave birth to a third child, whose care she initially entrusted to her sister-in-law. She eventually married and had a fourth child, and raised her two youngest children with her husband, who was never told of the existence of Niall and Fran. They have considerable sympathy for their birth mother. Niall said: ‘I feel sorry for my mother: she’s old and doesn’t remember a huge amount. ‘She said they [the St Patrick’s home mothers] could be sent out to clean a church, and come back to find their baby gone. ‘She said the mothers would slip notes into their babies’ nappies in the hope that the adoptive parents would keep them and give them to the children later.’ However, Niall says he has drawn a blank in researching his birth father. ‘I asked my mother, “Who is my father?” She was really vague, and said he worked in a church. I asked her was he a priest and she wouldn’t say.’ Fran explained that she had little interest in discovering her background until recent years. Learning ‘basic details’ about her early days, such as her birth weight, made her curious. ‘It was, like, up until then, I wasn’t even born but here I was, on paper, with another life that I didn’t know anything about. ‘I was 46 when I met my mother, and she was 80. She is a frail woman and I had no axe to grind with her. I wasn’t there to beat her up, it was just to meet her. ‘I feel so sorry for those women: they were treated so badly and for her to have found us all means so much to her. Fran Kavanagh (right) with her 27-year-old son (centre) and her 22-year-old daughter (left) together recently . ‘I’m delighted now that I found out. I feel kind of guilty that I didn’t do more before I was 46 but I just accepted the situation. I believed I was a lucky child because I had been adopted. ‘But I could have met Niall a lot sooner.’ The pair plan to meet up again the future and Fran, who will be 50 this year, is holding her birthday party back home in Dublin.

A rare prototype of the first American penny was sold for $1.175million at an auction in Baltimore, Maryland. The pricey penny, which dates from 1792, is one of only seven Birch Pennies which are known to exist. The deal went down late Thursday and it was one of the highlights of a two-day sale of rare US coins, medals and paper money. The 1792 Birch Cent - one of only seven known to exist - sold for $1.175million at an auction in Baltimore . The deal closed Thursday during the Whitman Coin & Collectibles Expo at the Baltimore Convention Center . Stack's Bowers Galleries of Irvine, California, organized the auction during the Whitman Coin & Collectibles Expo at the Baltimore Convention Center. The $1.175 million price tag included the buyer's premium. The auction catalog read: 'The Birch cent is, simply, the first of a cultural phenomenon that is known the world over - it is the first American cent.' Vicken Yegparian of Stack's Bowers said he was happy with the sale price, the Baltimore Sun reported. Yegparian said: 'It's not every day you sell a million-dollar rarity. 'The primary motivation is a love of history, a love of the beauty and the lore of the coin. 'In the top-tier pieces, some of it is just bragging rights: '"I have something you don't."'

The man who ended up with the coin said he was from Texas. The first was snapped up by a Beverly Hills rare coin dealer in January for $2.585million at an auction in Florida. Kevin Lipton, 55, had the winning bid for that penny. He said: 'It's like our very first penny. 'It's such a spectacular coin. It's so important, so rare. 'They are literally Mona Lisas of our coinage.' The coin Lipton bought was previously sold in 1981 for $200,000. Named for engraver Robert Birch, the penny sold on Thursday depicts Lady Liberty encircled by the words 'Liberty parent of science and industry.' The flip side is engraved with 'United States of America,' 'One cent,' and the fraction 1/100.

Jenson Button is convinced ailing McLaren will one day challenge the might of Mercedes despite the two teams currently at opposite ends of the pace spectrum at present. McLaren and new power-unit supplier Honda suffered abject humiliation in the season-opening grand prix in Australia earlier this month. The team were already without the services of big-name acquisition Fernando Alonso after the Spaniard sustained concussion in a testing accident in Barcelona. Come the race, reserve Kevin Magnussen failed to even make it to the start line due to a power-unit issue that forced the young Dane to pull over on the formation lap. Jenson Button waves to the crowd before the first race of the season in Australia . McLaren were well of the pace in Melbourne... Button finished 11th, two laps behind winner Lewis Hamilton . At least Button saw the chequered flag, describing it at the time as 'a small victory', albeit finishing two laps down on race-winner Lewis Hamilton in 11th and last place. Despite McLaren's seemingly hopeless position heading into Sunday's Malaysian Grand Prix, a positive Button can see hope on the horizon. 'We're a hell of a long way behind, but I feel we have something we can mould into something very special in the future, which is very exciting,' said Button. 'Being 1.5 seconds off the pace and knowing you've peaked with your package, that's got to hurt. 'Whereas at least we have a glimmer of hope we can possibly challenge Mercedes one day.' Asked as to the reasoning behind his belief, Button replied: 'The direction with the car in terms of aerodynamics, but also with how aggressive this engine is, which is why we're having so many issues. 'In many ways - it's probably wrong for me to say - it's probably more like a Mercedes than it is the other two manufacturers (Ferrari and Renault) in terms of design, aggressiveness and packaging. Lewis Hamilton sprays champagne from the podium after winning the season-opening Australian Grand Prix . Hamilton led team-mate Nico Rosberg home in Melbourne as Mercedes dominated the opening race of 2015 . 'It's just going to take a little bit of time, but if we didn't have that hope you wouldn't see the strong effort by the whole team. 'They're not heading to races because they're paid to, they're doing so because they're passionate about racing. They're looking forward to the future as much as I am.'

Oklahoma University alumni are rallying around an African American chef who has been forced out of his job at the school's disgraced fraternity after footage emerged of members performing a racist chant. Howard has worked at Sigma Alpha Epsilon for more than 15 years, cooking raved-about chili dogs and cheering students with his 'infectious smile', former members say. But on Monday, his role was terminated after the university closed SAE with immediate effect.

Support: Howard has worked as a chef at Oklahoma University's Sigma Alpha Epsilon for more than 15 years but is now unemployed because the house was shut down after members were filmed singing a racist chant .

That page has at least $3,000. A Twitter user who shared a link to the fundraising page wrote: 'I went to an OU SAE tailgate one time, (had a great time) an i met that man howard, he grills a mean burger.'

Federer has only lost once this year - at the Australian Open - and took just 68 minutes to beat Berdych . He needed just 68 minutes to advance to the semis against the sixth-seeded Raonic.

Top-ranked Novak Djokovic takes on fourth-seeded Andy Murray in the other men's semifinal on Saturday. It was the first time Berdych has lost to Federer in straight sets since 2011 . Raonic beat three-time Indian Wells champion Nadal for the first time in six career meetings, firing 18 aces and hitting 48 winners to 25 winners for Nadal, who had 22 unforced errors. They dueled in the second-set tiebreaker, when Nadal held three match points but he committed errors on two of them and Raonic smashed a winner on the other. Raonic had plenty of chances in the tiebreaker, too, finally converting on his fifth set point when Nadal netted a shot. Neither gave an inch in the third, staying on serve until the 11th game. That's when Raonic earned the only break of the set, hitting a shot on the baseline that Nadal chased down but sent a backhand long.

'Because I was serving well and moving well, so maybe there is not going to be that many chances for him on the return.' Federer served two love games in the first set, when he lost just five points on his serve. 'When you feel that he's in control right from the beginning, then of course you have to come up with your best game from the beginning of the match,' Berdych said. 'There is a very thin line in between that and overdoing it. Today I stepped a little bit over it.'

This is the picture that nearly cost a teenager his life when he plunged 2,500ft down a mountain after stepping back to fit a bit more scenery in his shot. Jack Fox, 14, from Southport, fell on the last run of the last day of a school skiing trip in the Alps during half-term. He suffered ice burns to his arms but miraculously survived the ordeal relatively unhurt. The costly picture: Jack Fox took this snap the moment before he fell on the last day of a school skiing trip in the Alps . Jack's injuries: Despite bouncing off rocks and ice during the fall he only needed treatment for ice burns on his arms after his jacket was pushed up to his elbows during the plunge . Jack's iPhone 4S, containing the last picture he took, also survived the fall. He said: 'The battery goes quite quickly now, but there is not a crack on it. After I had stopped falling I just saw it there and tried to turn it on but it wouldn't. Then, when I got to the hospital and it had dried out, it turned on.'

She said: 'Jack has been after an iPhone 6 for ages and when it wouldn't turn on, he thought he was going to get a new one. But we are glad it came on because that was when he first spoke to me. 'My husband had been told that he had been airlifted off, but we didn't know about any injuries. His phone coming back on was like it was meant to be.' Jack said: 'I was facing forwards taking pictures of the scenery, and I was about to put my phone away when I started to slip and lose my footing. I was shouting for help as I was falling – but then I couldn't because I had snow in my mouth.' Most of Jack's horrified friends feared the worst as he tumbled down the mountain. Amanda added: 'Jack said when he got to the bottom of the mountain he knew he hadn't broken anything as everything moved.' At the top of the mountain, Jack said a lot of people had taken their helmets off to take photos. His mum Amanda said: 'Luckily he hadn't, because his helmet was all smashed. Kids think helmets are not cool but Jack has now realised that they are.' 'It was cracked and bits had fallen off it,' said Jack, 'As I was going down I was trying to stop myself by digging my boots in, but it flipped me over and hit my head – it was a scary experience and was the first time I've ever thought I was going to die.' He added: 'You do need a helmet. It has saved my life.'

He said: 'As I fell, my jacket pushed up to my elbows and I got to one point when I started to slow down and I moved over on to one arm because the other one was hurting. That is when the left arm went bad.' Amanda said Jack's left arm was 'quite a mess'. She added: 'He is lucky to be here. It could have been a totally different story. 'He is here and can tell the tale, which is the important thing.' Jack feared the snap had cost him his life and said for the first time ever he thought he was going to die during the experience .

<s>[INST] This is the picture that nearly cost a teenager his life when he plunged 2,500ft down a mountain after stepping back to fit a bit more scenery in his shot. Jack Fox, 14, from Southport, fell on the last run of the last day of a school skiing trip in the Alps during half-term. He suffered ice burns to his arms but miraculously survived the ordeal relatively unhurt. The costly picture: Jack Fox took this snap the moment before he fell on the last day of a school skiing trip in the Alps . Jack's injuries: Despite bouncing off rocks and ice during the fall he only needed treatment for ice burns on his arms after his jacket was pushed up to his elbows during the plunge . Jack's iPhone 4S, containing the last picture he took, also survived the fall. He said: 'The battery goes quite quickly now, but there is not a crack on it. After I had stopped falling I just saw it there and tried to turn it on but it wouldn't. Then, when I got to the hospital and it had dried out, it turned on.' Mum Amanda, 41, said Jack was disappointed the phone still worked. Jack had hoped the accident would land him a phone upgrade but his old mobile survived .

A naked man who claimed he was 'from a family of sasquatch' has been jailed for ten years after attacking an armed hunter in the woods. Jeff McDonald had gone out hunting for deer near his home in Manning, Oregon, when he saw Linus Norgren wearing what appeared to be 'tan clothing'. But when he got closer, Mr McDonald, who was carrying a high-powered rifle, realized that 22-year-old Norgren was in fact naked. Jailed: Linus Norgren, 22, was sentenced to 10 years in prison Tuesday for attacking a hunter while naked in woods in Manning, Oregon, in October 2013 . Mentally disturbed: Linus Norgren (pictured) attacked Jeff McDonald in the woods near Manning, Oregon, claiming he was from a family of sasquatch . Attack: Norgren had punched McDonald in the head and face and tried to choke him with the victim's own shirt . He told Oregon Live how he asked him for his name and received a normal response before Norgren said that he was 'a sasquatch from a family of sasquatches'. After offering to help take him home, Norgren struck Mr McDonald on the head with a rock, causing him to black out. When he woke up, Oregon Live reports, Norgren was on top of him and squeezing his hands tightly around his neck while Mr McDonald had suffered two dislocated shoulders. As the struggle unfolded he asked his attacker why he was trying to kill him to which Norgren replied: 'Sasquatch kills the hunter'. Mr McDonald said he managed to bite one of Mr Norgren's knuckles before the attacker appeared to 'pass out' on top of him. After a further struggle he managed to free himself and reach his gun, according to reports. Pointing his rifle at Norgren, he called 911. According to KPTV, McDonald told authorities they needed to get there quick, 'because I only have one option here and you know what it is'. Deputies eventually found them in thick forest after a 90 minute search. McDonald had held Norgren at gunpoint the whole time. Jeff McDonald had gone out hunting for deer near his home in Manning (pictured), Oregon, when he saw Linus Norgren wearing what appeared to be 'tan clothing' In court this week, Norgren said he was suffering 'catastrophic mental disturbances' at the time. Jurors were told that he had experiences symptoms of his 'untreated bipolar disorder', Oregon Live reports, while Norgren also told the court that he was acting in self-defense. 'I was injured already, I was naked and I was terrified,' Norgren said in court Tuesday, KPTV reported. 'Not to make excuses for myself, but Mr. McDonald's presence was absolutely terrifying. 'I truly believed I needed to defend myself to get out of that situation and go home. 'I didn't want to hurt him, I didn't want to hurt Mr. McDonald. 'I didn't want to kill him. I didn't want anything to happen to either of us.' 'I couldn't help it.' Guilty: Norgren was found guilty of attempted murder and second-degree assault last week. On Tuesday, he was sentenced to 10 years in prison with credit for time already served . But the self defence argument was rejected by jurors and Norgren was convicted of attempted murder and three counts of second-degree assault. He was cleared of further charges of first degree assault and unlawful use of a weapon. Oregon Live reports that his defense lawyer said he was unable to use an 'insanity defense' without Norgren's consent but suggested the evidence of mental illness should be a 'mitigating factor'. Norgren was jailed for ten years at Washington County Circuit Court this week, a year and a half after the incident in October 2013.

A California woman who was in New York to attend a friend's wake was critically injured when a cab hit her while she was loading her luggage into a taxi before heading to JFK to fly home. Rosemarie Mifsud, 42, became wedged between the two taxis outside 750 Seventh Avenue in Midtown Manhattan early Monday. Mifsud, who has two sons aged eight and 11, was putting luggage into the trunk of a cab in the middle lane of traffic when the second vehicle, a van, smashed into her from behind. Rosemarie Mifsud, 42, got stuck between two taxis on Seventh Avenue in Midtown Manhattan this morning . She was headed back to city of Livermore which is on the edge of the San Francisco Bay Area.

'He hit her pretty hard.' Bill plans to fly out to New York to be with Mifsud during the recovery process. The mother-of-two was critically injured after being struck 'pretty hard' said her husband Bill Mifsud (right) The Mifsuds live in Livermore, California, and have two sons together aged eight and 11 (pictured above) Mifsud, who works in software technology, was brought by ambulance to Bellevue Hospital in critical condition. She underwent extensive surgery but it seems likely there will be some permanent damage. Her legs were in really bad shape and an officer at the scene used his belt as tourniquet, the New York Post reported. Leon Mass was working at a nearby food cart and saw what happened. He said: 'The bones were sticking out of her leg. 'She was wearing jeans. 'There was a cop who wrapped the belt around her to stop the bleeding. 'She was just so calm. 'She screamed and then she was just so quiet.' The stretch of Seventh Avenue where the accident occurred (above) would have been dark early this morning . Mohamed Gendia, 34, was driving the cab that struck her. He has a clean record and has been working as a licensed driver for more than a year, according to the NYC Taxi & Limousine Commission (TLC). Mohamed Gendia said he didn't see Mifsud, according to DNAinfo. He told TLC investigators: 'It was dark. I braked and I slid. The brake didn't help me. 'I thought I hit the car, not her.' It is unknown if he will be charged or face any other sort of disciplinary action. A lawyer hired by the family, Brian O'Dwyer, said: 'Given the circumstances of the accident we are asking that the police department and district attorney take a very close look at pursuing charges.'

(CNN)As relatives and friends mourn the loss of their loved ones aboard Germanwings Flight 9525, the world community is stunned by the sequence of events that led to co-pilot Andreas Lubitz purposely crashing the plane into the French Alps, killing all 150 people on board. I happen to have several personal connections to this tragedy: a recent graduate of Drexel University -- where I teach -- and her mother were on the ill-fated flight, I lived in Germany for 18 years and I am a psychologist who has researched the psychology of terrorism and developed psychiatric tests that are used to determine pilot flight fitness. While the engineering of the Airbus aircraft is fascinating and the world of air traffic control absorbing, what is even more complex and challenging to understand is the human mind of the co-pilot investigators say is responsible for the crash -- the machine that flies the machine. When complex engineering systems interact with human factors, it is most often the human that causes the anomaly. Humans are far less reliable than machines. The average aviator has superior intellectual and cognitive abilities, and is psychologically stable and reliable. While it is not surprising that when it comes to aviation accidents, the first line of inquiry is into what went wrong with the plane. However, very often, as apparently is the case here, something went wrong with the human flying the plane. Pilots are typically tested for emotional stability and screened for the presence of mental illness when they are selected. The U.S. Navy has strict testing programs related to fitness for duty protocols for their pilots during the length of their careers. But we have learned that the German company Lufthansa and its budget airline affiliate Germanwings do not use psychological testing once the pilots have made it through the selection process. Psychological assessment and screening is not held in as high esteem in Germany as it is in the United States. Perhaps it should be. A fitness-for-duty evaluation asks this important question: Can the pilot safely and effectively perform his job from a mental health and cognitive standpoint? The deliberate destruction of Flight 9525 by a single person, most likely related to some grievance or other unknown intrinsic motivation that he took to the grave, can also be considered an act of terrorism. The action constitutes the unlawful use of violence against the passengers on the flight to further some yet unknown objective. Research on the perpetrators of terrorism has revealed that a single person is capable of executing odd, unexplainable violent actions. Their behaviors may be related to a political or social framework, or it may be associated with something deeply personal. Examples include Richard Reid, the failed shoe bomber; Eric Rudolph, the Olympic bomber; or Theodore Kaczynski, the Unabomber. In 2009, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, a U.S. Army officer and psychiatrist, went on a shooting spree at Fort Hood, Texas, killing 13 and wounding 32. And in 2012, Staff Sgt. Robert Bales, a 38-year-old father of two, opened fire and killed 16 innocent Afghan civilians. When examining Germanwings Flight 9525 from the "cockpit of the human mind," one must ask this question: How can we ever predict or prevent tragedies like these when we can never truly know what lurks in the mind of another human being? As a psychologist, I would, of course, advocate for more rigorous psychological screening and regular testing for pilots, as well as instituting additional security measures to prevent future incidents like this. Just as aircraft are inspected and maintained, it is important to regularly evaluate one of the more fragile components of modern aviation -- the pilots operating the plane. But, just as the overwhelming majority of automobile accidents are caused by driver error, with a human mind at the helm of an aircraft, there will always be an element of unpredictability present. And, unless we had a "flight recorder" for the human brain, we will never really know what took place inside the mind of co-pilot Andreas Lubitz. One thing is for sure: the tragic events of Flight 9525 will surely renew conversation about what happened to Flight MH370 -- the biggest aviation mystery since Amelia Earhart vanished in 1937 -- and the role that human factors may have played in its disappearance.

Evidence: This is a picture of the stolen Buddha statue containing the remains of meditating monk Zhanggong Liuquan and who villagers believe is currently in Holland . Three-hundreds Chinese villagers have signed a petition demanding the return of a 1,000-year-old relic containing a mummified monk. They believe that the Buddha statue on display in Holland is the same that was stolen from Spring Village, Fujian, in 1995, the People's Daily Online reports. Now they are calling on Dutch Prime Minister, Mark Rutte, to hand back their 'ancestral patriarch', Buddhist Zhanggong Liuquan. The letter states: 'In our hearts he is not a cultural display item to be placed in a museum but a living Buddha that is respected and revered by us all. 'This is a tradition that is deeply important to our way of life. He has looked over us for over 1000 years and is a testament to our historical and cultural heritage.' Locals say Zhanggong Liuquan did many good things for villagers such as curing illnesses free of charge. When he died, people made his body a statue before the body rotted, and then they placed the body in the memorial hall of the village ever since. The Buddhist has become a spiritual sustenance for locals. The statue was first displayed in Drents Museum in the Netherlands in 2014, causing the Cultural Relics Bureau to launch an investigation. Scroll down for video . They found photographs and historical records that supported the claim that it in fact belonged to a temple in the village. A Buddha statue (left) containing a mummified monk (right) was actually stolen from a village temple twenty years ago, Chinese experts believe . The private owner, who wants to stay anonymous, bought the relic in 1996 at a European market. The mummified remains were discovered at the end of February after he took the statue to the museum in the Netherlands to be restored. According to various Chinese media, the Dutch collector said he is willing to return the Buddha statue if it is proved to be the one stolen from Fujian. The mummified remains were discovered at the end of February after a private owner took the statue to Drents Museum at the Meander Medical Centre in the Netherlands for restoration. Above, the museum completes a CT scan . Erik Bruijn, an Buddhism expert, determined the mummy dated back to the 11th or 12th century and was Buddhist master Liuquan. Above, a scientist examines the base of the statue . The remains had been due to be put on display at the Hungarian Natural History Museum until May 2015. But they have now been pulled after people at Drents museum, which completed the CT scan and endoscopy, requested they were no longer used. The villagers now hope that the issue can be raised during the visit of the Dutch prime minister to China, paving the way for it to be repatriated to its rightful home.

Villagers say relic is their 'ancestral patriarch' who gives spiritual guidance . They plan to hand petition to Dutch PM in scheduled visit to China . Dutch collector vowed to give it back if proved it belongs to Fujian .

Paris Saint-Germain defender David Luiz has warned Chelsea they won't achieve success by simply sitting back when the two sides meet at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday. The first leg of the Champions League tie ended 1-1, meaning a goalless draw would be enough to send Jose Mourinho's side through to the next round. But Luiz, who spent three years in west London before his £50million summer transfer to PSG, said it would be foolish of his old club to invite pressure on themselves considering the strength of the Ligue 1 champions' attacking options. David Luiz has warned his old club Chelsea of the dangers of simply sitting back against Paris Saint-Germain . Luiz spent three years in west London before his £50million summer transfer to the French champions . 'I know how Jose (Mourinho) will prepare for this, he will be telling the boys to be patient and hit us on the counter attack,' Luiz told The Mirror. 'He knows that we need to score and that they don't, I know that is his way. We must be careful because I know that Chelsea have the ability to hurt on the counter attack, but they must be careful as well. 'To sit back and just defend against Zlatan (Ibrahimovic), (Edinson) Cavani and (Ezequiel) Lavezzi can also be very dangerous, so it is not just us who have to be careful.' He added: 'We have players that are used to big occasions, and playing in big stadiums, we know we can do this.' Edinson Cavani scored against Chelsea when these two sides met in February at the Parc des Princes . Branislav Ivanovic gave Chelsea the lead in the first leg of the Champions League tie at Parc des Princes .

(CNN)Marvel is going back to war. The massively popular superhero entertainment factory has the third "Captain America" movie on the way, "Civil War," which will include Iron Man and quite possibly, the new Spider-Man. It's based on a story arc from almost a decade ago, which tackled issues of freedom versus security, with the two heroes going toe to toe against one another. This summer, Marvel plans to revisit that storyline as part of the much larger return of "Secret Wars," its biggest crossover event of the 1980s. The effects of this will be huge to the comics, ending 33 of the company's titles. CNN spoke to writer Charles Soule, who has gained acclaim for his work on "Superman/Wonder Woman," "Swamp Thing," The Death of Wolverine," "She-Hulk" and more. He gave us the scoop on the return of "Civil War," one year before it hits the big screen. CNN: What can fans expect from your "Civil War" storyline? Soule: "Secret Wars" is an opportunity to revisit some of the great Marvel stories of the past. One of those is "Civil War," and I got the call to work on that. "Civil War" happened in 2006 and 2007, and in that story Captain America and Iron Man went after each other based on an ideological difference on superheroes in the world. What I'm doing is taking that story in a different direction. CNN: Will this be a way for those who are interested in the upcoming movie to dive into that story? Soule: Absolutely. If you look at the ideas that that story had, Iron Man thought superheroes should have to register with the government, and become something of a police force. Captain America thought that that was restricting the central freedoms of this country. It was a debate of security versus freedom. We're taking that basic idea and expanding it to a larger canvas. The Registration Act is all in the past at this point. It's more of a world drastically changed based on a superhero war, and it's a huge story and it's fun to be able to involve every Marvel character there is. CNN: Is this one of the biggest stories you've worked on? Soule: I've been on big books but this one feels huge. It affects every character in one way or another, and it deals with some central issues to the modern world. That's not always something you get to do in a Marvel story. CNN: So this will have many twists and turns away from the original story? Soule: The idea is to take some of the events in the original storyline and spin them off into entirely new stories. Without spoiling, this deals with a world that has been ravaged for quite some time when we pick up the story. I felt the original "Civil War" explored those questions very well. If I was going to play in this sandbox, I wanted to ask my own questions.

This summer, the popular 1980s "Secret War" comic book storyline will return . Story will affect every Marvel comic, ending 33 titles . 2000s "Civil War" story will also be revisiting, pitting characters against each other .

The former owner of a Bayswater hotel has been hit with London’s biggest ever fine for an individual for violating fire safety rules. London Fire Brigade said guests’ lives were put in jeopardy due to the shoddy conditions which were discovered inside The Radnor Hotel during an inspection in 2011. It brought charges against then-owner Salim Patel, who was fined £200,000 this week after a successful prosecution. London Fire Brigade said fire doors were missing (right) or tied open with electrical cords or string (left) In addition to the six-figure fine, Mr Patel was ordered to pay nearly £30,000 in court costs after pleading guilty to seven offences under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. He was also handed a four-month prison sentence, suspended for 18 months, the London Fire Brigade said. Fire safety officers were stunned when they toured the six-floor, 18-room hotel, on Inverness Terrace, to carry out a routine inspection. They discovered numerous fire safety breaches, including inadequate fire detection systems, blocked emergency exits and inadequate emergency lighting. Fire doors were missing or tied open with extension cords or string, there was evidence the basement store room was used for sleeping, and the owner had not conducted a fire risk assessment. A spokesman for the London Fire Brigade said the hotel, on Inverness Terrace, is under new ownership . Mr Patel was given an enforcement notice, which required him to address the safety concerns to make the hotel safer for guests, but follow-up visits found that no action had been taken, the London Fire Brigade said. The hotel continued to operate without a working fire detection system, so court proceedings were launched against the hotelier. When Mr Patel was sentenced Judge Kennedy said the public expected ‘absolute attention’ to fire safety when occupying sleeping accommodation. The judge told court that Mr Patel did not provide that protection and, as a business owner, he was where the ‘buck stopped’, the London Fire Brigade said in a statement. Hotel owner Salim Patel received a record £200,000 fine this week after a successful prosecution . Neil Orbell, head of fire safety regulation, said he hopes the penalty serves as a deterrent for other hoteliers. He said: ‘Our fire safety officers carry out around 16,000 inspections every year to help ensure the capital's buildings are safe from fire. ‘This is the biggest fine we have ever secured against an individual for breaking fire safety laws and it should send a message to all business owners that if they are shirking their fire safety responsibilities and putting the public at risk we won’t hesitate to prosecute. ‘The size of the fine should also serve as a stark reminder that the court’s take fire safety just as seriously as we do.’ A spokesman for the London Fire Brigade said Mr Patel no longer runs the hotel and it is under new ownership. Guests complained about the conditions in a series of scathing reviews on TripAdvisor, where The Radnor Hotel had a rating of two stars before it closed. Of 92 reviews, 59 were filed under ‘terrible’. Helen, from Australia, wrote in August 2012: ‘We were a little alarmed at the fire emergency plan which was printed straight off the internet and put up without being filled in. We drew comfort from the fact the place has not burned down yet.’

For  a moment, the image seemed wrong. Celebrating in the corner were a group of giddy England players, while slumped in the penalty area were clutch of crestfallen Germans. Shouldn’t it be the other way around? Important matches between these two old foes tend to end one way and rarely is the outcome happy for England. Under-21 head coach Gareth Southgate, after all, knows that better than most. But this was no apparition: two goals in two minutes from Nathan Redmond and James Ward-Prowse provided further evidence this squad Southgate has impressively moulded is an emerging force. When Euro 2015 starts 80 days from now, do not doubt they possess what it takes to win it. This 3-2 win at a rain sodden Riverside Stadium, achieved after they had trailed twice, was stamped with the qualities of a team that can win a major tournament: quality, technique and spirit coming to the fore. Never was it more evident than when Ward-Prowse scored the decisive goal. James Ward-Prowse wheels away in celebration after scoring the winner in England Under 21's 3-2 defeat of Germany . The Southampton midfielder completed an unlikely comeback that saw two late goals scored in the space of three minutes . Nathan Redmond leaps for joy after bringing England level at 2-2 with a deflected shot in the second half . England were heading towards defeat before Redmond's strike on 79minutes brought them back into the game . Jesse Lindgard brought England level for the first time with a composed finish from Carl Jenkinson's cross in the first half .

Expectations of a bold show in the Czech Republic can now build but Southgate, who has only lost one of the 16 games for which he has been in charge, was rather more circumspect. Yes, he was pleased but he was also quick to sound a note of caution. ‘How do I keep a check on expectations,’ he asked. ‘That’s easy. I’ll just show people the first 25 minutes of this game. We have tremendous belief in this group of players and some elements of what they did really pleased me. Other aspects showed we can definitely improve.’ The last time Southgate had stood in the technical area of this particular stadium, it came before one of the darkest moments of his career: the events of October 20, 2009, when he was sacked by Middlesbrough, will never leave him. He returned, however, a more confident and mature manager and he has thrived in this role with the FA, getting the Under-21s playing a vibrant, attractive brand of football that will see them go to the Czech Republic with genuine ambitions of success. Germany, though, will go there with the same mind-set and there is no doubt they will be big players when the tournament starts because of the big players they have in their ranks; Marc-Andre Ter Stegen, the Barcelona keeper, Emre Can of Liverpool and Max Meyer of Schalke to name but three. They started this contest impressively, moving the ball with purpose and ambition and in the first 10 minutes England had trouble getting out of their own half. Germany retained possession with ease and there was an inevitability they would strike first. When Germany broke the deadlock, they did it in style. Matthias Ginter skipper down the left and clipped in a cross that Philipp Hofmann, celebrating his 22nd birthday, controlled with his right foot before smashing a drive beyond Jonathon Bond with his left. For a moment it seemed like Germany might go through the gears but this England team has spirit as well as ability and their speed caused problems; Lingard (twice) and Danny Ings both tested Stegen before Lingard’s industry was rewarded in the 34th minute and parity was restored. Half-time arrived and checked England’s momentum. Germany made changes and the introduction of Arsenal flyer Serge Gnabry gave them blistering pace and trickery to attack Everton left-bacl Luke Garbutt. He made an immediate impact, thrilling providing Hofmann’s second of the night. Yet England were not done and they staged a grandstand comeback, Redmond equalised in the 78th minute before Ward-Prowse won it when bursting through.

<s>[INST] For  a moment, the image seemed wrong. Celebrating in the corner were a group of giddy England players, while slumped in the penalty area were clutch of crestfallen Germans. Shouldn’t it be the other way around? Important matches between these two old foes tend to end one way and rarely is the outcome happy for England. Under-21 head coach Gareth Southgate, after all, knows that better than most. But this was no apparition: two goals in two minutes from Nathan Redmond and James Ward-Prowse provided further evidence this squad Southgate has impressively moulded is an emerging force. When Euro 2015 starts 80 days from now, do not doubt they possess what it takes to win it. This 3-2 win at a rain sodden Riverside Stadium, achieved after they had trailed twice, was stamped with the qualities of a team that can win a major tournament: quality, technique and spirit coming to the fore. Never was it more evident than when Ward-Prowse scored the decisive goal. James Ward-Prowse wheels away in celebration after scoring the winner in England Under 21's 3-2 defeat of Germany . The Southampton midfielder completed an unlikely comeback that saw two late goals scored in the space of three minutes .

A French teacher from Florida has been suspended for five days without pay after she was accused of calling her 14-year-old Muslim student a 'raghead Taliban' when he walked into class wearing a hoodie. The administrative complaint filed against Maria Valdes also claimed that, when the teacher called on on Deyab-Houssein Wardani, she once asked 'Okay the Taliban, what is the answer?' It also alleged that the Cypress Bay High School teacher would say 'Ah no! The Taliban is here' when he walked into the classroom and would refer to him as a 'terrorista,' which is Spanish for terrorist. Scroll down for video . A French teacher from Florida has been suspended for five days without pay for allegedly calling her 14-year-old Muslim student Deyab-Houssein Wardani (pictured) a 'raghead Taliban' Deyab-Houssein, who did not know the Taliban referred to a terrorist organization until he asked his parents, said the other students in his class laughed at the nickname. 'I would not expect this from a teacher, teachers are supposed to set an example for their students,' he told the Sun Sentinel. 'It's very sad that people still think like that, that all Muslims are your average daily terrorist.' Valdes will also have to undergo a diversity training program. The punishment is not enough for Deyab-Houssein's father Youssef, who said that, at a minimum, he believes the teacher should have been suspended for a year without pay - if not fired. Wardani said the five-day suspension amounted to a 'vacation'. He made his anger loud and clear after the punishment was passed down at the Broward School Board's meeting on Tuesday. The father told school administrations they should 'all be removed for bullying,' according to Local 10. Superintendent Robert W. Runcie, who filed the administrative complaint after he was notified of Valdes' alleged comments, said the matter was taken 'very seriously' and was addressed with the 'appropriate sense of urgency'. 'I take a lot of exception to any statement, or suggestion that somehow this administration and school board did nothing or was ever lax in our response', he said, according to the Miami Herald. The punishment is not enough for Deyab-Houssein's father Youssef, who said that, at a minimum, he believes the teacher should have been suspended for a year without pay - if not fired . During the meeting Runcie, a Jamaican immigrant, said that he had personally been affected by racism. He shared the story of when he watched his mother get shot in the face by a man who blamed Jamaican immigrants for his inability to get a job. Wardani said this was not the first time his son, who is half Lebanese and half Moroccan, has experienced discrimination. In the fourth-grade a school bus driver who knew Deyab-Houssein was Muslim told him 'we're going to wipe you off the face of this planet and turn you into dust and sand,' Wardani told the Sun Sentinel. Although the school board voted unanimously to discipline the teacher, Wardani was not done fighting after the meeting was over. 'I promise you for the rest of my life, until my dying breath, I'm going to make sure no child goes through what my Deyab-Houssein had to go through,' said Wardani, who has reached out to the FBI . 'This is motivating me to work harder,' Deyab-Houssein said. 'To prove that I am not a random guy who you can call a Taliban' 'I promise you for the rest of my life, until my dying breath, I'm going to make sure no child goes through what my Deyab-Houssein had to go through,' he told the Miami Herald. Wardani said he has reached out to the FBI. District administrators said the degree of punishment that could be leveled against Valdes was limited because of an agreement with the Teachers Union. As for Deyab-Houssein, he said he is 'very proud' of his father and is getting support from his peers, but that he now feels a 'strange vibe' from his French teacher, 'like she doesn't want me to be there.' 'This is motivating me to work harder,' he said. 'To prove that I am not a random guy who you can call a Taliban.'

A Texas man has been charged with animal cruelty after he shot dead a bull terrier at a Houston-area dog park because he thought the animal was acting in a threatening manner. The Harris County Sheriff's Office said in a statement that 26-year-old Joseph Potts is facing a count of felony animal cruelty with a deadly weapon in connection to the January 25 shooting at Bay Area Dog Park in Houston. If convicted, Potts could face 2-10 years in prison. Following his arrest Monday, the 26-year-old suspect was released after posting $5,000 bond. Scroll down for video . Justice for Diesel: Joseph Potts is facing a count of felony animal cruelty with a deadly weapon for shooting dead Randall Livingston's 2-year-old dog, Diesel (pictured) Tragic: Sheriff's deputies say Potts, 26, was at Bay Area Dog Park in Houston in January when one of his dogs had an interaction with Diesel, which ended with the 26-year-old man shooting the animal three times . Authorities said Potts, himself a dog owner, gunned down a 2-year-old black-and-white Staffordshire bull terrier named Diesel in front of his owner’s horrified mother. Potts, who is a concealed handgun license holder, told deputies the dog was aggressive toward him, his wife and their two pets. But witnesses told police that Diesel was playing with other dogs in the park when Potts came up to the bull terrier, kicked him and then shot him three times - once in his leg and twice in his back. Randall Livingston, Diesel’s owner, told Click2Houston he was excited when the sheriff's department reached a decision this week to charge Potts with a crime in connection to his pet's killing. 'That was obviously the outcome we were looking for,' he said, adding that he hopes Potts learns to 'stay the hell out of the dog park.' Livingston previously said that on January 25, his mother took his beloved pet to the Bay Area Dog Park to play with other animals. Four-legged 'threat': Potts, who is a concealed handgun license holder, told deputies Diesel (pictured) was aggressive toward him, his wife and their two pets . Cruel: Witnesses said Potts kicked Diesel to get him away from his own dog, and then pulled a Glock and fired on the pooch, striking him in the leg and back . But what started out as a fun Sunday morning outdoors ended in a tragedy when Diesel had an 'interaction' with one of the other pups running around the park. According to witnesses, the other dog's owner, Joseph Potts, gave Diesel a kick, pulled out his Glock 9-mm and shot the 2-year-old animal three times. Diesel was rushed to VCA Animals Hospital, where he later died from his injuries. According to a sheriff’s report cited by Houston Press, Potts told a deputy that he shot Diesel because he approached one of his dogs 'and began to get aggressive.' After failing to kick Diesel away from his pet, Potts stated that he 'began to fear for the safety of his dogs, his wife and himself.' The 26-year-old pet owner was quoted as saying that he was sorry for what happened, and that ‘he did not want to harm the dog but felt like he had no choice.’ 'Innocent': Randall Livingston insisted that from the time he adopted Diesel when he was just six weeks old, the pup had never exhibited any signs of aggression . But according to an eyewitness, it appeared that Potts was taking his time and carefully aiming the gun at Diesel. Randall Livingston insisted that from the time he adopted Diesel when he was just six weeks old, the pup had never exhibited any signs of aggression.

A video has emerged believed to show ISIS executioner Jihadi John ranting on camera shortly after he arrived in Syria from the UK. The footage is of two bands of fanatical fighters joining forces in 2013 under the command of notorious terrorist Omar al-Shishani. At the front stands a man thought to be Mohammed Emwazi - the west Londoner last week unmasked as the killer of Western hostages in a series of videos which have shocked the world. A man thought to be Jihadi John proclaims allegiance to a terror group in footage filmed in 2013. The video is thought to be the first known appearance by the executioner now unmasked as Mohammed Emwazi . The video is thought to have been filmed just months after Emwazi is understood to have fled Britain to take up arms alongside the extremists. It shows a pledge of allegiance made when the so-called 'Army of Muhammad Brigades' group joined forces with the so-called 'Brigade of Migrants', of which Emwazi is believed to have been a member. The speaker proclaims: 'This army announces unity within its ranks for the sake of implementing the Shariah and returning this blessed land to God the most glorified and the most high under the leadership of the emir Umar al-Shishani.' Emwazi, now 26, attempted to join al-Shabaab in Somalia after finishing his university course in London in 2009, but was refused entry to Tanzania and returned to Britain, from where he later went to Syria. He is thought to have been in a group who were among the first to go to fight in the Middle East, along with fellow Londoners Ibrahim al-Mazwagi, Choukri Ellekhlifi and Mohammad el-Araj. Ellekhlifi was two years above Emwazi in his north London school, Quinton Kynaston Academy, and later became part of a robbery gang which carried out a series of raids in central London. Ellekhlifi, 22, fled to Syria while on bail and was killed fighting near Aleppo in August 2013, months after the video thought to feature Emwazi was filmed. El-Araj, 23, was killed two weeks later during a firefight. Al-Mazwagi, from North London was 21 when he was killed in Syria in February last year. Emwazi was last week unmasked as the killer who carried as series of beheadings of Western hostages . In the film, the man thought to be Emwazi stands in front of notorious terror leader Omar al-Shishani (right) Emwazi's links to the London crime gang meant he had developed a love of violence, which led to him being chosen to feature in the beheading videos for which is now known throughout the world. In the latest video, the man suspected of being Emwazi stands at the front of a long line of gun-toting militants, with al-Shishani standing behind him arm-in-arm with two other fighters. Commenting on the likenesses of Emwazi to the speaking in the latest video to emerge, Raffaello Pantucci of the Royal United Service Institute told MailOnline: 'Given he’s masked, it is difficult to make the precise connection between the two, though there are definite similarities. 'Given the group and community that Emwazi came from – the West London group - were all alongside the Katiba al Muhajireen under Omar al Shishani, it might well fit that it could be Emwazi. 'Given his solid Arabic and his willingness to be front and centre in films, it would fit that it could be him. Al Shishani seems to have been quite willing to record films of himself with his foreign fighter warriors.' Charles Winter from the Quilliam Foundation added: 'There are certainly similarities between Emwazi and the man speaking in this video, the eyebrows for example. 'In terms of the group, we know that it has a large proportion of foreign fighters so there's a possibility that he could have joined but I'm unable to say whether it is definitely him. The video shows a pledge of allegiance to Omar al-Shishani, now a commander of ISIS in Syria . Emwazi is thought to a fighter (second right beneath flag) who appears in another photo featuring al-Shishani . Mr Winter added: 'While he does have certain features that resemble Emwazi, there have been numerous false alarms with ID-ing "Jihadi John" in the past. A balaclava does a lot to obscure one's face, and a lot to make people look similar, too.' Others have cast doubt on whether the man is Emwazi, saying the speaker in the film looks shorter than the Londoner and appears to be holding the Kalashnikov rifle with his right hand, whereas Jihadi John held his knife in his left hand. If the video does show Emwazi, the footage would be the first known time he appeared on camera in Syria after going to fight. It is believed he was one of more than 700 fighters in The Migrants Brigade who arrived in the Middle East three years ago. The group were not part of ISIS at the time the video was filmed, but joined the group in the months that followed. Emwazi has since become one the world's most wanted men after he appeared in a series of gruesome videos beheading a series of foreign hostages, including British aid workers Alan Henning and David Haines and US journalists James Foley and Steven Sotloff.

Omar al-Shishani, whose real name is Tarkhan Batirashvili, is an ethnic Chechen from the Caucasus nation of Georgia, specifically from the Pankisi Valley, a centre of Georgia's Chechen community and once a stronghold for militants. He fought in the brief conflict between Russia and Georgia in 2008 and became a jihadist after being discharged from the Georgian military on health grounds after contracting tuberculosis. After recuperating and being refused re-enlistment, he was arrested for stockpiling weapons and jailed in September 2010. Following his release, he travelled to Istanbul in Turkey in March 2012 to join Chechen rebels in the Syrian conflict. The red-bearded fanatic became the commander of the Brigade of Migrants, which was initially aligned with al-Qaeda's Jabhat al-Nusra. The group merged with other jihadists in March 2013 to form the Army of Emigrants and Supporters, a larger and more structured group with a religious council. In May 2013, Shishani switched to supporting the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria and has become the group's military commander in Syria, leading it on an offensive to take over a broad stretch of territory leading to the Iraq border. Numerous reports of his death since then are thought to be untrue.

<s>[INST] A video has emerged believed to show ISIS executioner Jihadi John ranting on camera shortly after he arrived in Syria from the UK. The footage is of two bands of fanatical fighters joining forces in 2013 under the command of notorious terrorist Omar al-Shishani. At the front stands a man thought to be Mohammed Emwazi - the west Londoner last week unmasked as the killer of Western hostages in a series of videos which have shocked the world. A man thought to be Jihadi John proclaims allegiance to a terror group in footage filmed in 2013. The video is thought to be the first known appearance by the executioner now unmasked as Mohammed Emwazi . The video is thought to have been filmed just months after Emwazi is understood to have fled Britain to take up arms alongside the extremists. It shows a pledge of allegiance made when the so-called 'Army of Muhammad Brigades' group joined forces with the so-called 'Brigade of Migrants', of which Emwazi is believed to have been a member. The speaker proclaims: 'This army announces unity within its ranks for the sake of implementing the Shariah and returning this blessed land to God the most glorified and the most high under the leadership of the emir Umar al-Shishani.' Emwazi, now 26, attempted to join al-Shabaab in Somalia after finishing his university course in London in 2009, but was refused entry to Tanzania and returned to Britain, from where he later went to Syria. He is thought to have been in a group who were among the first to go to fight in the Middle East, along with fellow Londoners Ibrahim al-Mazwagi, Choukri Ellekhlifi and Mohammad el-Araj. Ellekhlifi was two years above Emwazi in his north London school, Quinton Kynaston Academy, and later became part of a robbery gang which carried out a series of raids in central London. Ellekhlifi, 22, fled to Syria while on bail and was killed fighting near Aleppo in August 2013, months after the video thought to feature Emwazi was filmed. El-Araj, 23, was killed two weeks later during a firefight. Al-Mazwagi, from North London was 21 when he was killed in Syria in February last year. Emwazi was last week unmasked as the killer who carried as series of beheadings of Western hostages . In the film, the man thought to be Emwazi stands in front of notorious terror leader Omar al-Shishani (right) Emwazi's links to the London crime gang meant he had developed a love of violence, which led to him being chosen to feature in the beheading videos for which is now known throughout the world. In the latest video, the man suspected of being Emwazi stands at the front of a long line of gun-toting militants, with al-Shishani standing behind him arm-in-arm with two other fighters. Commenting on the likenesses of Emwazi to the speaking in the latest video to emerge, Raffaello Pantucci of the Royal United Service Institute told MailOnline: 'Given he’s masked, it is difficult to make the precise connection between the two, though there are definite similarities.

'We had eight fantastic years in the Premier League and two years ago we brought the FA Cup back to Wigan.' At this point, the large travelling contingent from Leeds began barracking Whelan.

Lord Evans quit his role with the National Crime Agency to keep a lucrative directorship with scandal-hit HSBC . A former intelligence chief has quit his role with Britain’s top crime fighting agency to keep a lucrative directorship with scandal-hit HSBC. Baron Evans of Weardale, the former director-general of MI5, has resigned from the board of the publicly-funded National Crime Agency (NCA) after just a year, due to a ‘perceived conflict of interest’ as the bank has come under fire over tax-dodging allegations. In a statement, the crossbench peer admitted there has been ‘a lot of controversy’ over claims that HSBC enabled clients of its Swiss private banking arm to avoid tax. But he chose to keep his £3,000-a-day role with the financial giant rather than stay with the law enforcement agency which is Britain’s equivalent of the FBI. His decision to quit the NCA and stay with HSBC could put further pressure on Rona Fairhead, who is clinging on to her well-paid positions as a director of the bank and chairman of the BBC’s governing body. Lord Evans, who was director-general of MI5 from 2007 to 2013, wrote in his resignation letter: ‘There has been a lot of controversy over the alleged actions of HSBC clients and of the bank itself in recent weeks. I believe that though there is no actual conflict of interests there could be a perceived conflict of interests between my two roles.’ His resignation was ‘reluctantly’ accepted last week by the head of the NCA, Keith Bristow, who said: ‘I have accepted the resignation of Lord Evans with great regret. While I do not believe there is an actual conflict of interests, any perception of one has the potential to adversely affect the reputation of the NCA. Jonathan has made an enormously valuable contribution to the NCA over the past 15 months.’ After more than 30 years in the security service, Lord Evans retired in 2013 and soon afterwards became a non-executive director of HSBC, earning £125,000 for 40 days work a year. He also became a member of a committee the bank set up to combat financial crime, in the wake of the scandal that saw it fined £1billion in the US for allowing Mexican drug gangs to launder money through its accounts. Other members of the team include Bill Hughes, a former head of the NCA’s predecessor the Serious Organised Crime Agency, and the former head of HM Revenue & Customs, Dave Hartnett. But despite their efforts, HSBC has been dragged into another scandal that could lead to a police investigation. Baron Evans of Weardale esigned from the board of the publicly-funded National Crime Agency, pictured during a training exercise . Earlier this year leaked documents emerged that suggested HSBC’s Swiss private bank helped clients dodge millions of pounds in tax. The French authorities have since agreed that the account data, now held by the taxman, can be shared for the ‘purpose of investigating criminal offence’ and a meeting to discuss a probe has been held at which the NCA was present alongside the Serious Fraud Office, the Financial Conduct Authority, the Crown Prosecution Service, City of London Police and EuroJust. The NCA, set up to tackle organised crime across the country, has said it has no ‘live role’ in any probe into the bank’s activities. Lord Evans was appointed a non-executive director of the newly established NCA in December 2013. Its annual accounts show he was paid less than £5,000 in its first few months and would be paid less than £15,000 a year. HSBC will come under fresh attack from MPs tomorrow when the Public Accounts Committee quizzes former taxman turned bank adviser Mr Hartnett. Chairman Margaret Hodge said there was still a lot of work to be done in exposing tax-dodging by British companies. ‘I would be amazed if HSBC were alone.’

It is the favourite winter holiday of the middle and upper classes - a week in a European ski resort, with days spent exploring the mountain slopes and evening tucking in to local food. But for some, the time spent at some of the highest spots in Europe is focused more on drinking, sex and partying into the small hours. Welcome to the Andorran resort of Pas De La Casa, where it seems holidays are all about boarding, bargain booze and budget holidays. Scroll down for video . Pas De La Casa is all about boarding, bargain booze and budget holidays . Channel 5 documentary Brits on the Piste has looked in to the antics of the workers who spend the winter season in the mountains and the holidaymakers who visit. And the series, currently airing, has proved so popular that viewing figures doubled over the first two episodes. With Pas De La Casa having the reputation as having the one of the best nightlife scenes of any ski resort, it's certainly an eye-opening experience. The four main bars, that are packed out during ski season, are The Milwaukee, Underground, Paddy's Bar and The Shamrocks. From downing shots in the bars, to having an early morning skiing lesson with 'Dreadlock Dave' and partying with DJ Craig, the 'Pete Tong of Pas', all things are covered. And it's not just the visitors behaving badly. The 30 or so British workers at the resort will often drink and part as much as the tourists, with one worker admitting she will have about '20 shots' while working behind the bar. Fellow barman Danny admits that in the previous season he slept with 15 girls, but says he is aiming for 22-25 this season. Despite the cold weather, there's always time to take to the Jacuzzi, and these tourists from Wales take the plunge . Following a night on the tiles, it wouldn't be wise to miss your early morning ski lesson with 'Dreadlock Dave,' pictured here with bar worker Beth . It seems skiing is not particularly high on the agenda for visitors, despite the high costs of booking winter holidays. Two lively party girls from Ireland find themselves on holiday for five days longer than they planned in episode three, while competitive Craig organises an alcohol-fuelled snowman-building competition, and three hungover resort workers go heli-skiing. 'We were meant to book it for five days,' say the two Irish visitors. 'But we hit the wrong button on Ryanair and we're here for ten.' 'Everyone keeps saying to us 'you're total p*******s and you're not going to make the slopes,' but realistically probably all we'll make is one day on the slopes.' Group trips are particularly popular at the bargain resort. Fierce drinking battles between Team Essex and Team Bournemouth - a groups of friends who had swapped sand for snow to party hard - take place in the resort's bars. Both sides of life at the ski resort are show here, from necking beers and shots on a wild night out, to a moment of romance as Joe proposes to his girlfriend Michelle on the slopes . A group of party animals from Yorkshire get into the spirit to celebrate one of their birthdays . Meanwhile three brothers from Kidderminster, who are travelling to the resort for the first time without their parents, are under no illusions what they're there for. Engineer Scott, 19, says: 'This year we're allowed to go mental, completely mental. Just go out there and get smashed, every night, just drink hard and ski harder.' Twenty bottles of Jägermeister and a further 20 of vodka are sold every night in the resort's bars, so it's little wonder party animals flood the venue. The resort is very male-dominant, with 95 per cent of those who stay there being men. And where alcohol and pride is concerned, this can lead to a tense atmosphere at time. Episode four shows how things can take a turn for the worst as skiing takes a back seat for most of the holidaymakers, replaced with drinking, vomiting and fighting. A group of lads from Leeds talk through how the drinking games fit into skiing. This pair from Essex are forced to show their drinking prowess when they come up with some rival holiday-goers from Bournemouth . 'If you fall over it's a shot, if you fall over coming off a ski-lift that's two shots, if you mack (take) somebody out that's a pint,' says Byron. 'If you're sick that's five shots,' adds his friend Johnny. 'It's just a vicious circle basically.' The show also explores those much-discussed resort relationships, from bar workers Danny from Paddy's and Milwaukee's Beth. Despite being on, off and then on again, the pair work out how they are going to surprise each other for Valentine's Day. And in the latest offering, the other side of life at the ski resort is revealed when Joe from Stevenage pops the question to his girlfriend Michelle, complete on bended knee in the snow. Brits on the Piste is shown on 5* and the next episode is Sunday, March 8 at 11pm.

Documentary claims resort is about bargain booze and budget holidays . Pas De La Casa Skiing doesn't get in the way of endless shots and beers downed in bars . But you better not let a hangover get in the way of a ski lesson with 'Dreadlock Dave'

Episode four shows how things can take a turn for the worst as skiing takes a back seat for most of the holidaymakers, replaced with drinking, vomiting and fighting. A group of lads from Leeds talk through how the drinking games fit into skiing. This pair from Essex are forced to show their drinking prowess when they come up with some rival holiday-goers from Bournemouth . 'If you fall over it's a shot, if you fall over coming off a ski-lift that's two shots, if you mack (take) somebody out that's a pint,' says Byron. 'If you're sick that's five shots,' adds his friend Johnny. 'It's just a vicious circle basically.' The show also explores those much-discussed resort relationships, from bar workers Danny from Paddy's and Milwaukee's Beth. Despite being on, off and then on again, the pair work out how they are going to surprise each other for Valentine's Day. And in the latest offering, the other side of life at the ski resort is revealed when Joe from Stevenage pops the question to his girlfriend Michelle, complete on bended knee in the snow. Brits on the Piste is shown on 5* and the next episode is Sunday, March 8 at 11pm. [/INST] Documentary claims resort is about bargain booze and budget holidays .

The entire field is separated by just six shots heading into the final round of the Madeira Islands Open after the tournament was reduced to 36 holes for the second year in succession. The tournament had been cut to three rounds after winds gusting up to 47mph meant no play was possible on Thursday, while further strong winds on Friday caused a delay of almost two hours before rain ended play early. Half of the field had yet to complete their rounds when play was abandoned for the day at 6pm and more rain which flooded the course caused further disruption on Saturday. Heavy rain has forced organisers to reduce the Madeira Islands Open to 36 holes . The European Tour event was reduced for the second year in a row after strong winds and heavy rain . With yet more bad weather forecast for Sunday the decision was taken to make it a 36-hole event, with the top 65 and ties due to play the final round in a shotgun start at 8am. Denmark's JB Hansen held the clubhouse lead on four under par, one shot ahead of a group of eight players including England's Andrew Marshall and Scotland's Peter Whiteford. 'I'm quite happy, played nicely and left a few out there to be honest, which is nice to say considering I was probably the worst golfer on the European Tour last year!' Whiteford said. 'It's been blowing a hurricane back home so it's kind of what I've been practising in anyway. It's the first time I've been on a golf course and enjoyed it for maybe a year so I'm looking forward to tomorrow. 'I feel very refreshed after taking a little break from the game. The driver is a lot better and that was the thing that was killing me last year, but you work twice as hard when you're playing badly and I was doing more than I should have been doing, working on the wrong things. 'It feels better, the time away helped to refresh the brain a little bit and if I enjoy it I'll play all right. I don't care how I do at the moment as long as I enjoy it. 'It's a major for us on the Challenge Tour, the biggest one of the year so with me certainly, being selfish, I definitely want to get the second round in so I can get a pay cheque and some money onto the rankings. 'After just one round it's going to be an absolute rat race with a huge number of people on the same scores. It'll be a shotgun start so it's not like you'll be under the cosh coming down the stretch because you'll never know where the scores will come from.'

Open Championship venue Royal St George's has voted to allow women members for the first time in its history. A statement from the club read: 'The Royal St George's Golf Club is pleased to announce that, following an extraordinary general meeting held on 14th February 2015 and a subsequent ballot of the full members of the club, a resolution to alter the club's rules to make ladies eligible for membership has been duly passed. 'Under the club's rules, the resolution would only be passed if it obtained the support of three-quarters of the votes cast on the ballot. More than 81 per cent of the full members took part in the ballot and a decisive 90 per cent voted in favour of ladies being eligible for membership. Darren Clarke won The Open the last time it was held at Royal St George's in 2011 . 'The alteration of the club's rules has immediate effect and the club looks forward to welcoming ladies as junior and full members.' Royal St George's had been one of three clubs on the Open rota with a male-only membership policy. The club last hosted the Open in 2011 when it was won by Europe's Ryder Cup captain Darren Clarke. Muirfield and Royal Troon are the other two courses to have male-only membership policies.

Terry Gibson is sitting in a restaurant in Wimbledon, recalling the 12 absurd and wonderful chapters of his life that were spent in this part of town. ‘It was nuts,’ he says. ‘You didn’t need Fash and Jonesy to lie about what went on — the reality was mad enough.’ In time, Gibson will come back to the sore point of how the Wimbledon side of the Eighties was represented in a recent documentary. Terry Gibson laughs whilst recalling his eventful spell playing for Wimbledon's Crazy Gang . He will address the myth that the Crazy Gang was ruled by the bullying of John Fashanu and Vinnie Jones, even if there is a memory of the former stripped to his underpants and covered in baby oil ahead of a dressing-room fight. But, for now, Gibson wants to laugh rather than seethe. The little striker, who won the Cup, once told Alex Ferguson where to go and pocketed £200 for scouting Pablo Zabaleta, wants to present a fuller picture of life at Plough Lane. ‘I remember Dennis Wise,’ he says. ‘Just after we won the FA Cup in 1988 players were getting sold and he was desperate for Bobby Gould to give him a big move. We went on a trip to Sweden and he’s bought a load of fireworks. Back at the hotel, Wisey is letting them off from the fifth floor into a crowded street. The locals are running for cover. Unbelievable. Bobby knew he was trying to force a move and wouldn’t budge. Just another day at Wimbledon.’ The Wimbledon players celebrate having won the 1988 FA Cup at Wembley against favourites Liverpool . Gibson poses for the camera when speaking to Sportsmail's Riath Al-Samarrai about his career . Gibson laughs. ‘There was a time when Fash was telling the newspapers he was getting threatening letters at the training ground,’ he says. ‘We all knew it was rubbish so one day I cut out letters from a newspaper, like in the films, and spelled, “Meester Fash, we are watching your every move”. I slipped it in his pocket and when he found it he starts panicking. He disappears with his big mobile phone and the next day’s papers say Fash has had another threat. He always was a drama queen.’ Gibson adds: ‘My first day at the club, I saw Wisey pinching the Volkswagen badge off Vinnie Jones’s dad’s truck. Vinnie was panicking that his dad was going to kill him. ‘There were a lot more laughs than people might have thought based only on the documentary.’ John Fashanu, in action during his Wimbledon playing days, was certainly a character in the Crazy Gang . Gibson, like most associated with the programme, The Crazy Gang, has taken exception to claims from Fashanu that he was ‘the leader’ and ruled by fear. ‘The truth is we tolerated Fash,’ says Gibson, who spent six years at the club. ‘He was a bit of a clown. He was the perfect player for us but he always tried to present himself as something he wasn’t, even then. ‘Yes, you had to be very tough to survive at the club. Grown men would cry. But there was so much more to how Wimbledon achieved what we did. For Fash to imply he controlled our dressing room with intimidation is just false. ‘Of course there were fights but Fash exaggerated. Jonesy told the story about Fash locking the dressing room and throwing an unnamed player against a bench and splitting his leg open. Stitches, etc. Gibson was former team-mate Lawrie Sanchez's assistant at Wycombe, Northern Ireland and Fulham . ‘The lad was Robbie Turner and, as I remember it, Fash strips to his pants and covers himself in baby oil. They slipped around a bit and no punches were thrown. Yes, Robbie badly injured his calf on the bench but it was not split open with blood everywhere. ‘The stories were all embellished. It was no Mafia, it was more a boarding school of very naughty boys.’ A deeper perspective is found in Gibson’s new book, Giant Killer. It’s a wonderful autobiography, self-written across three years. The book charts his rise from Tottenham, to Coventry, to Manchester United and on to the high points at Wimbledon, before Gibson became Lawrie Sanchez’s assistant at Northern Ireland, Fulham and Wycombe. The 52-year-old, in action for Wimbledon (right) works for Sky Sports, commenting on Spanish football . ‘The game changed a bit in those three decades,’ he says. ‘When Spurs signed me as a kid they offered my parents a holiday and I was hoping they would choose somewhere abroad — they asked for this camp in Dovercourt! At least the club sent a limo.’ It was at Coventry that Gibson played alongside Sam Allardyce and Stuart Pearce. ‘We went to Bisham Abbey once,’ Gibson says. ‘Pearce and Micky Adams were sharing and Ashley Grimes was in with Sam. We’d all had a drink one night. ‘Somehow Micky and Pearcie got into the others’ room at something like 3am and tossed all their gear in the courtyard. Sam and Grimes go to fetch it but get locked out in the rain. God, they were out there for maybe an hour. Sam was getting all this abuse, Pearcie and Micky calling him a northern so-and-so and laughing at him, saying, “No wonder Millwall got rid of you”. Wimbledon players in training during the Crazy Gang era with Fashanu (centre) and Vinnie Jones . ‘Next thing there is a huge crash. Sam has found a fire extinguisher and thrown it through their window. I can still hear Sam saying, “Oh s***. I didn’t mean it. It slipped”. Priceless.’ After three good years at Coventry, Gibson joined Manchester United for a difficult 18 months, in which he repeatedly felt ‘belittled’ by Ron Atkinson. ‘You could see the glow of his sunbed from the training pitch,’ Gibson says. ‘He just picked on me for reasons I never understood.’ At one point, Gibson pulled out of a move to Watford because he correctly anticipated Atkinson would be sacked and a fresh start might await. Atkinson’s exit meant Alex Ferguson’s arrival. ‘Alex was always honest with me — a good man,’ Gibson says. ‘I got the hairdryer once after a reserve game and told him to shove it all up his a***. Gibson endured a difficult 18 months at Manchester United (left) and was brought to Wimbledon in 1987 . ‘The next morning I went to apologise and he said he admired my spirit. I liked him but it never worked out for me at United.’ Gould brought Gibson to Wimbledon in 1987 — the manager allegedly ate 12 sheep testicles to get Sam Hammam to sanction the move — and his playing career re-started. ‘I could have done a book on Wimbledon alone,’ he says. In retirement Gibson went on to form a fine coaching partnership with Sanchez at Northern Ireland, which included capping Jonny Evans from United after ‘my son realised from playing Championship Manager on the computer that he was eligible for us’. Gibson has detailed his eclectic career in a book called Giant Killer, which is available at terrygibson.london . In a career of surreal moments, it seems about right. There was also a £200-a-week scouting position for Manchester City in Spain that saw him recommend Zabaleta. ‘The club did OK out of it,’ he says. These days the 52-year-old commentates on Spanish football for Sky and is happy to be out of the thick of it. ‘I think I’ve had probably enough of that craziness in my life,’ he says. He’s probably right. Terry Gibson’s book Giant Killer is available at www.terrygibson.london .

Andrew Skarbek, 47, has been on the Channel 7 afternoon quiz for 14 days, building up to a guaranteed 'safety jackpot' of $314,500. After a perfect run in the final minutes of Monday's show, when he answered five sudden death questions correctly, he became one of only four Million Dollar Minute contestants to reach $500,000. Scroll down for video . Andrew Skarbek, with his wife Jenny, is only the fourth Million Dollar Minute contestant to win $500,000 - but he's not stopping there .

But that isn't the end of the nail-biting ride - when given the option to take the money and run Mr Skarbek opted to risk the $500,000 for a chance of becoming a millionaire. As his wife of 19 years, Jenny, joined him on stage for his winning moment on Monday, Mr Skarbek, from Hawthorn, Victoria, said he had been given a second chance at life and was determined not to waste it. 'I came here to win $1 million and that is what I am going to do,' he said. Mr Skarbek told Daily Mail Australia that the moment he decided not to take the $500,000 was the moment it 'stopped being about the money.' 'It's about more than the money now. It's about proving to myself that I can do it. 'A lot of people might think it's crazy not to leave with the $500,000 and I know it would have been so easy, but I do back myself.' Mr Skarbek hit financial trouble after being diagnosed with mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. His six-month treatment cost $50,000, putting further strain on the couple who said they were trapped in the renting cycle. 'My wife and I have been living hand to mouth and even had to call on our parents to help cover the blow-out on medical bills with my six-month cancer treatment. Million Dollar Minute has saved us,' he said. Things started to turn around when Mr Skarbek was given a clean bill of health and was told he had got on to the the show in the same week. After missing out by only one question last week Mr Skarbek was delighted to finally reach the $500,000 milestone . Mr Skarbek, who spent years dragging his wife Jenny to pub trivia nights, got into debt when he had to pay sky-high medical bills to treat his cancer . 'Sometimes you get in a rut. You know things will improve eventually but it's hard to see how. Then I got the great medical news and found out I was going to make the show,' he said. 'A whole series of things just started coming my way.' He said it was also a 'great comfort' knowing he had already locked in a pretty substantial prize of more than $300,000. Upon learning he had secured the safety jackpot, Mr Skarbek said his wife suggested he should should share their good fortune, donating to The Smith Family charity. Mr Skarbek says his 78-year-old mother Sophie has always supported him, with his parents helping him and wife financially . 'Jenny was thinking about how tough some people do it and what a magical thing it would be to win that money and help someone else that's in need,' he said. Surprisingly, Mr Skarbek said he wasn't a particularly good student at school, instead saying he inherited his thirst for knowledge from his father. 'Ever since I was a little kid a lot of my family used to nickname me 'The Professor'. I was always reading,' he said. Mr Skarbek, pictured as a child with family members, said travelling the world was the 'greatest gift' he was given . He spent his younger years travelling the world with his family which he said was the 'greatest gift' he was ever given. A young Mr Skarbek was nicknamed 'The Professor' Mr Skarbek said he has been an avid trivia player at his local pub for as long as he can remember and was elated to find his years of training could be put to good use. 'This is the only chance I've had to actually do something with my trivia skills,' he said.

But that isn't the end of the nail-biting ride - when given the option to take the money and run Mr Skarbek opted to risk the $500,000 for a chance of becoming a millionaire. As his wife of 19 years, Jenny, joined him on stage for his winning moment on Monday, Mr Skarbek, from Hawthorn, Victoria, said he had been given a second chance at life and was determined not to waste it. 'I came here to win $1 million and that is what I am going to do,' he said. Mr Skarbek told Daily Mail Australia that the moment he decided not to take the $500,000 was the moment it 'stopped being about the money.' 'It's about more than the money now. It's about proving to myself that I can do it. 'A lot of people might think it's crazy not to leave with the $500,000 and I know it would have been so easy, but I do back myself.' Mr Skarbek hit financial trouble after being diagnosed with mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. His six-month treatment cost $50,000, putting further strain on the couple who said they were trapped in the renting cycle. 'My wife and I have been living hand to mouth and even had to call on our parents to help cover the blow-out on medical bills with my six-month cancer treatment. Million Dollar Minute has saved us,' he said. Things started to turn around when Mr Skarbek was given a clean bill of health and was told he had got on to the the show in the same week. After missing out by only one question last week Mr Skarbek was delighted to finally reach the $500,000 milestone . Mr Skarbek, who spent years dragging his wife Jenny to pub trivia nights, got into debt when he had to pay sky-high medical bills to treat his cancer . 'Sometimes you get in a rut. You know things will improve eventually but it's hard to see how. Then I got the great medical news and found out I was going to make the show,' he said. 'A whole series of things just started coming my way.' He said it was also a 'great comfort' knowing he had already locked in a pretty substantial prize of more than $300,000. Upon learning he had secured the safety jackpot, Mr Skarbek said his wife suggested he should should share their good fortune, donating to The Smith Family charity. Mr Skarbek says his 78-year-old mother Sophie has always supported him, with his parents helping him and wife financially . 'Jenny was thinking about how tough some people do it and what a magical thing it would be to win that money and help someone else that's in need,' he said. Surprisingly, Mr Skarbek said he wasn't a particularly good student at school, instead saying he inherited his thirst for knowledge from his father. 'Ever since I was a little kid a lot of my family used to nickname me 'The Professor'. I was always reading,' he said. Mr Skarbek, pictured as a child with family members, said travelling the world was the 'greatest gift' he was given . He spent his younger years travelling the world with his family which he said was the 'greatest gift' he was ever given. A young Mr Skarbek was nicknamed 'The Professor' Mr Skarbek said he has been an avid trivia player at his local pub for as long as he can remember and was elated to find his years of training could be put to good use. 'This is the only chance I've had to actually do something with my trivia skills,' he said. With a 'life-changing' amount of money coming his way, Mr Skarbek said it was his wife that was having trouble comprehending how much their lives will change.

Manchester City defender Martin Demichelis has signed a one-year contract extension. The Argentina international was approaching the end of his previous deal but has now committed until the end of the 2015-16 season. Demichelis, 34, has become an important member of City's defensive unit after an initially shaky start following his move to the Etihad Stadium in September 2013. Martin Demichelis (left) has signed a new one-year deal with Manchester City . 'I want to say that I am really proud and happy to have extended my contract for another year,' Demichelis told the club's official website. 'Manchester City is a club with a lot of ambition. We want to grow every year. 'When you get to hold a trophy, it's the best feeling for any player. 'I want to say that I will fight for this club and for my team-mates until the end of my contract. I will fight to try and win titles.' Demichelis worked with City manager Manuel Pellegrini at River Plate and Malaga and followed the Chilean to Manchester from the Spanish club via a brief, appearanceless, stint at Atletico Madrid. He also had a successful nine-year spell at Bayern Munich earlier in his career and was a member of the Argentina side that reached last year's World Cup final. His early appearances for City were not impressive but he improved considerably after the nadir of a red card in a Champions League loss to Barcelona in February last year. Demichelis overcame a shaky start to his City career to establish himself in the back four . He played a key role in the season run-in that culminated with title success and he has made 30 appearances this season. Demichelis says he is now settled in England and has not even ruled out looking to stay beyond his new deal. He said: 'We are happy here - my wife and son are happy here. We are trying to improve our English and I think that's a good thing for our future. 'At this stage I am enjoying playing week to week - you can never say what can happen in the future.' Demichelis follows Joe Hart, Vincent Kompany, David Silva, Sergio Aguero, Samir Nasri and Aleksandar Kolarov in committing to the club over the last year. Discussions with another player out of contract at the end of the season, James Milner, remain ongoing. The England international has been linked with a move abroad in recent days but Pellegrini has often said they are hopeful new terms can be agreed.

A schoolgirl who was arrested by armed officers and held in a cell overnight says she was targeted because police mistook an afro-comb she was carrying for a gun. Rochae Davis says she was walking with friends in Croydon, south London, with the comb tucked into the waistband of her trousers. Police already on their way to the scene were alerted to CCTV footage which they say purported to show the 15-year-old carrying a gun and later arrested her at home. Rochae Davis, 15, pictured with her mother Simone, says she was arrested by armed police because they mistook an afro-comb tucked into her waistband for a gun . She was bailed without charge and must return to a police station in April as the investigation continues. But, with police yet to recover a weapon, the schoolgirl claims she was only arrested because police jumped to conclusions. 'As I was walking back with a friend, six police officers from Trident, the gun crime unit arrived, and had guns. They pushed us against a wall and searched us,' she said. 'It was only after they had finished that they said they had seen me on CCTV with a firearm. But it was an afro comb - it didn't look anything like a gun. 'I was scared and confused. I said I didn't have a gun, but it was so unfair, they wouldn't hear me out. 'I didn't know what was happening. They took my clothes and my stuff - it was really uncomfortable.' Rochae's mother, Simone, said police's treatment of her daughter had been 'a disgrace' and that the schoolgirl had 'never been in trouble' with the law before. The schoolgirl said she 'didn't know what was happening' when she was taken to a police station and held overnight. Officers did not find the comb (above) when they searched her house as, she says, she had given it back to a friend . Rochae was bailed without charge but must return to a police station next month. A police spokesman said inquiries were ongoing . 'If they thought they saw her with a gun on CCTV then why didn't they stop and search her there and then,' the 33-year-old said. She added police may have thought Rochae was a young boy because she had her hood up at the time. The six-inch afro comb, which has a black handle and metal prongs, belonged to the teenager's friend, she said. Police did not find it when searching the family's home on the night of her arrest with Rochae claiming she had already given it back to a friend. A Metropolitan Police spokesman said: 'As officers were responding, police were contacted by the local authority CCTV control room, which was also monitoring the incident, with information that a female had been seen with what was believed to be a firearm in the area. 'Police arrived and a number of people were dispersed. A short while later, officers stopped a 15-year-old girl in Poplar Walk and she was subsequently arrested on suspicion of possession of a firearm. 'No firearm has been recovered at this stage. Detectives from Croydon CID are investigating and inquiries continue.' Sorry we are not currently accepting comments on this article.

There's been acai, kale, chia, and goji berries. But another obscure superfood new on the market in Australia is being heralded for its multiple health and beauty benefits, which include aiding in weight loss, slowing down cellular ageing, energy boosting, reducing skin conditions such as eczema, and giving a glowing complexion. While superfoods from the sea are nothing new, brown algae is being called superior due to its high levels of protein and fibre. Victoria Beckham, Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow are among the stars said to have adopted brown algae into their lives and their bodies. Britney Spears is also a fan and reportedly even eats it raw. Stars' secret weapon: Victoria Beckham (left) and Gwyneth Paltrow (right) are reported to be among brown algae's celebrity fans . Slimy superfood: Many are using brown algae as an alternative to green algae due to its reportedly superior health benefits that include aiding in weight loss, slowing down cellular ageing, and helping skin conditions . Algae is any plant based organism that grows in water. So, when you’re talking about seaweed, you’re talking about algae. Spirulina lacks the same levels of fibre and is harvested from farms, leaving it open to possible contamination. Brown algae is most familiar to people as kelp and is especially common in the cold clean waters of the Northern Hemisphere where it is sustainably harvested. But how can this superfood help you lose weight? In one word, iodine. Iodine is a crucial element in weight loss as it regulates the thyroid gland, a gland in your neck that hormones can either wreck havoc or cause balance in our bodies. Natural benefits: Brown algae has a high concentration of iodine, one gram is reportedly equivalent to 50 times the recommended daily intake . Most Australians have an acute deficiency in Iodine because we don’t eat enough wild fish, seaweed or algae. This means a lot of Australians suffer hyperthyroidism or under stimulated thyroids leading to unnatural weight gain. Now, brown algae has an extraordinarily high concentration of iodine, one gram is reportedly equivalent to 50 times the recommended daily intake. Because of our natural iodine deficiency, it’s argued that increasing your consumption can increase your metabolic rate and in turn help you burn more calories. When it’s fresh it is slimy seaweed, and for this reason it is often dried, powered and consumed in capsule or shake form. Some recommend trying it with rice milk. It reportedly contains unique antioxidants and fibres that have been linked to emerging studies that show anti-cancer, anti-viral and anti-bacterial benefits as well as promoting anti-senescence which is the process of slowing down cellular ageing. Drink it down: As consuming slimy seaweed can be less than palatable, it is often dried and powdered. Divinita arrived on Australian shelves in November . Brown algae is also high in other nutrients like calcium, potassium, magnesium, iron, chromium, copper, selenium and zinc and many B-vitamins . Professor Peer Schneck from Queensland University’s School of Agriculture and Food Sciences said his research shows that brown algae seaweed is more rich in antioxidants than acai berry and contain more vitamins that tomatoes and pumpkins.' It also keeps you feeling fuller for longer. ‘It comprises more protein than eggs and has a low GI,' said Professor Schneck. 'This is particularly important because it allows the body to slowly digest the contents which may help with the feeling of satiety and allow for better absorption.’

New super food has gained attention for its health benefits . Brown algae is reported to be superior to Spirulina due to its high fibre . Victoria Beckham, Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow are said to be fans . The Iodine component helps for weight loss by stimulating thyroids . Other benefits include reducing cellulite and helping skin conditions .

Boston (CNN)She knew something awful had happened. It was smoky and all she could hear were muffled screams. Her foot was turned sideways and her legs wouldn't work right. And her good friend, Krystle Campbell, was just lying there on the ground. Karen Rand -- she's Karen McWatters now -- dragged herself across the pavement. She wanted to get closer to Krystle so they could talk and take comfort from each other in the midst of so much chaos. "I got close to her, " she recalled. "For some reason, I got close to her head and we put our faces together." Krystle said that her legs hurt. They were the last words she'd speak. The two women held hands until Krystle's went limp. McWatters was the fifth witness of the first day of the terror trial of accused Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, who is accused of detonating pressure cooker bombs with his brother to punish the United States for policies they believe inflict suffering on Muslims. Three people were killed in the blasts: Campbell, a 29-year-old manager for a restaurant chain; Martin Richard, an 8-year-old boy; and Lingzi Lu, a 23-year-old grad student. More than 250 others were injured. And the first day of the trial -- after opening statements -- revolved around a number of survivors of the attack, who recounted in detail the chaos of that day. Prosecutors called them to the stand to paint a picture of the havoc and pain the bombings inflicted. Tsarnaev's attorneys chose not to cross-examine any of the survivors. McWatters fought her emotions as she looked at a photograph that showed her and her friend of eight years lying amid a heap of dazed and broken people. Their two faces, side by side, stand out among the jumble of limbs. Krystle's mouth is open, but she is very pale. "I was really scared," McWatters testified, "and I remember screaming for someone to help us. Everybody was screaming, everybody was screaming for help. It seemed like a long time before help got to us, but it probably wasn't." By the time first responders reached Krystle, it was too late. "They were doing CPR on Krystle and I started to think she didn't make it," McWatters said. She grabbed her friend's cell phone and tucked it in her pocket. By the time she arrived at the hospital, shock had set in. She was confused. For a while, that phone led hospital staffers to believe she was Krystle Campbell. When Krystle's parents rushed to her bedside and saw she wasn't their daughter, they were heartbroken, McWatters said. Krystle's boyfriend recognized her and called her parents. Two days later, doctors told her they were taking her leg. Her body was broken, and it hurt like crazy, she said. But not as much as losing her friend. Campbell's death was the first to be described in detail at Tsarnaev's trial. But descriptions of the other two deaths at the marathon and the death of a police officer at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology will come soon. There were runners conquering a 26.2-mile feat nearby, but Noah's attention was elsewhere, playing with rocks and pretending to be a scientist. The 5-year-old thought it was a very cool idea to handle the rocks, his mother, Rebekah Gregory, told jurors. Gregory recalled that she thought it lucky that Noah was happy playing scientist. The next thing she remembers is being hoisted and thrown back. Other witnesses used similar phrases: Blown through the air, deafening explosion, cries for help. Shane O'Hara, the manager at Marathon Sports, a running store near where the bombs went off, said it sounded like a loud cannon, followed by an instant cloud of smoke that covered the windows. O'Hara recalled stepping outside to the smell of gunpowder and burning hair. The decisions about whom to aid first -- those among the injured needing help before others -- still haunts him, he said. There were cries, sirens and screams, he said in answer to prosecutors' questions. He sniffled as a photo of the blown-out storefront was shown in the courtroom. He told the jury the plea he heard: "Stay with me, stay with me." Outside, Gregory tried to sit up, but could not rise much. "My first instinct as a mother was where in the world was my baby, where was my son," Gregory said. She couldn't see her legs, but she saw her bones lying next to her on the sidewalk, she testified. "At that point I thought that was the day I would die," she said. Gregory lifted her arms and her bones were sticking out of her flesh. Somehow, over the cacophony, she heard Noah calling for her. She wasn't imagining it. Colton Kilgore, who was also part of Gregory's group and another of Wednesday's witnesses, remembered the terrified boy looking for his mother. Boston Marathon bombing timeline . The day's testimony was dramatic and emotional, most likely as the prosecutors wanted it. Anyone who follows the news has seen footage of the bombings and read accounts of what happened. The power of the survivors' testimonies in the courtroom was in the details that made what some would call an unimaginable crime into something very real. They shared small memories, like what people said in the immediate aftermath of the attack. Gregory told the jury about how she knew Noah was being cared for. Then she focused on the tourniquet that was being twisted on her leg by aid-givers. "We have an amputee," she saw one of them mouth. What they told her aloud was something along the lines of "This is really, really bad, but we will help you." Another survivor, Sydney Corcoran, testified that after the blasts -- which left her ears ringing "just like leaving a concert" -- she was hurt but didn't know that she was severely injured. She limped to a railing, grabbed it, and passed out, she said. Eyes open again shortly afterward, she found herself on her back, with a group of men applying pressure on her thigh, trying to figure out where she was bleeding. "I remember a man putting his forehead to my head and telling me I'd be all right," she said. Corcoran was a senior in high school. After the one man told her she would be OK, another said he could see her eyes going white. "I could feel my body going tingly and I was getting increasingly cold. I knew I was dying," she testified. In court, she was asked if she knew why she was feeling cold. "I was dying. The blood was leaving my body. I was bleeding out," she answered. It felt like she was sliding into sleep. Almost peaceful, Corcoran said. Like she was going to go to sleep and fade away. Doctors saved the teen, but her life was not spared the pain of the attack. Corcoran awoke in a hospital and saw her father, she testified. Because she was intubated, she motioned for a pen and a paper and wrote a question for her father. Was her mother alive? "Once he looked at what I'd written he started to cry," Corcoran told jurors. The father responded: "She's OK, but her legs are gone." CNN's Ann O'Neill reported from Boston.

A single mother-of-three who is on benefits says she would love to work but employers won't give her a chance as she's overweight. Vicky Benson, 33, from Gateshead, tipped the scales at 28st and said she has struggled to lose weight despite her efforts to diet. 'I am well and truly overweight. This big tummy doesn't seem to budge,' she said on the latest edition of Channel 5 documentary Benefits Britain: Life On The Dole. Vicky, pictured on Channel 5 documentary Benefits Britain, says she would like to work but employers won't give a chance because she's 'well and truly overweight' 'I have tried to lose weight, I have tried everything. It's hard to diet, what's right for you, what not to eat, what to have in place of the rubbish. The temptation of just saying, "I'm just going for a kebab".' She said she has tried to find work but hasn't been successful and is angry that, as a result, her handouts have been sanctioned. She used to get £270 a week benefits but this was cut to £200 a week when she failed to apply for enough jobs. 'It's terrible living on benefits, it's not what I want. I have looked at a lot of cleaning jobs, coffee shops, shoe shops, everything but I never hear anything back,' she said. 'If there are two people standing for the same job and one is big and one is slim, they will take the slim one.' As a single mother to twins Lexi and Levi, five, and daughter Chloe, 13, as well as looking after a dog, Vicky says she's no stranger to hard work. The single mother has been on the dole for eight years and is angry her benefits have been cut recently because she hasn't applied for enough jobs . 'It's a full-time job looking after three kids, in fact it's probably harder,' she pointed out. She has been living off handouts for eight years after quitting a job she had as a cleaner. She said: 'I last worked in 2007. I had a job cleaning in sheltered accommodation. I did it for eight weeks. It didn't work out so I just gave it in. Maybe I should have stuck at it and tried harder.' After her twins started at school, Vicky was warned her benefits would be sanctioned if she didn't demonstrate she was actively seeking work. But she said she struggled to find a job because of her size, lack of qualifications and the fact she would have to fit it in around childcare. Vicky, pictured applying for jobs with her daughter, said she is trying to find work . She said it's not fair her benefits have been cut as a result of her not applying for enough jobs. 'I applied for four jobs as they were the only ones suitable for me to do. As a result, my benefits have been sanctioned as they said it wasn't enough,' she explained. 'I'm really angry at the fact they can put the sanction on me when I have kids. There are others who don't have kids and lie through their teeth and still get their money,' she said. Vicky's sister, Paula, said she didn't believe the job centre have done enough to help dyslexic Vicky find work. She said: 'It's wrong she was sanctioned for something she had done, but not done enough of. It's not like she hadn't done anything. Vicky's three children and her dog, pictured, keep her busy and she hated having to visit a food bank recently in order to feed them thanks to her benefits being sanctioned . 'She's a nice person, she's honest. she's reliable. I definitely think she could work given the chance.' Vicky added that she attended a course in order to keep her benefits but it wasn't helpful. 'The course was rubbish, it was on how to set up your own business - that's never going to happen to me. I couldn't wait to get home, it was a waste of time,' she said. As a result of her benefits cut, the single mother had to go to a food bank in order to feed her children, something she said made her feel like a 'scrounger' and that she doesn't want to do again. She said she intends to join a local slimming group so she can get the support she needs to lose weight and she hopes once she's slimmer, she will get be given the opportunity to work.

The Astana cycling team have denied reports they have been stripped of their WorldTour licence by the Independent Licence Commission. Last month the UCI requested that Astana's licence be revoked by the commission following an independent audit into the team of 2014 Tour de France winner Vincenzo Nibali, which came after a number of anti-doping infringements by Astana and their feeder team. On Monday, Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf reported that Astana would lose their WorldTour licence and would only be allowed to apply for a Continental licence, the third tier of professional cycling, saying the decision had been made on March 20. The Astana cycling team have denied reports they have been stripped of their WorldTour licence . The Licence Commission is due to meet with Astana on Thursday, and the team said they believed that meeting would mark the start of the decision-making process, with no verdict yet in place. An Astana statement said: 'Astana Pro Team has every reason to believe that our meeting on April 2 with the Independent Licence Commission will be a properly conducted legal meeting with due process and is not a foregone conclusion. 'We aim to present evidence that Astana Pro Team is in full compliance with the ethical codes in place and is taking pro-active measures to enhance our role in the global fight against drugs in cycling.' When Astana were awarded their 2015 licence in December, conditions were attached after five riders linked to the team failed doping tests in 2014, including brothers Maxim and Valentin Iglinskiy, trainee Ilya Davidenok and two members of Astana's continental development team - Artur Fedosseyev and Victor Okishev. On Monday, Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf reported that Astana would lose their WorldTour licence . Astana was made to submit to an audit from the Institute of Sport Sciences of the University of Lausanne as a condition of its licence. At the conclusion of that audit, the UCI asked for Astana's licence to be revoked, saying the reality of the team's policies and structures differed markedly from what Astana told the licence commission during a review last December. Kazakhstan-based Astana previously said they would appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport if their licence was revoked. There has been no suggestion of wrong-doing on the part of Tour winner Nibali. The UCI has not responded to requests for comment on Monday's report.

A director of an online gambling firm linked to Harry Redknapp and two Premier League football clubs has been arrested over a £21m fraud probe, it has emerged. Paul Bell, a director of 666Bet, was reportedly arrested at Heathrow airport last week as part of a joint money-laundering investigation by HM Revenue & Customs and the National Crime Agency. Six other people were arrested, 13 properties were raided and £1m in cash was also seized as part of the investigation. A director of an online gambling firm, which signed Harry Redknapp to star in its adverts (pictured above) has been arrested over a £21m fraud . The online firm announced deals with West Bromwich Albion and Leicester City last summer. It also signed former QPR manager Redknapp to appear in its adverts, alongside Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels actor Vas Blackwood. Last week, the UK gambling regulator The Gambling Commission suspended the firm's licence. The suspension led to Football League One side Leyton Orient, which signed a contract with the bookmakers in August last year, terminating its deal for shirt sponsorship. It is not yet known whether the two Premier League clubs will follow suit. Speaking from Dubai, Mr Redknapp told the Independent on Sunday: 'I just did an advert for them. I don't know anything about it at all. Not a clue.' Mr Bell, a stockbroker who is now an investor, was reportedly arrested at Heathrow before being re-arrested the following day when he arrived on the Isle of Man by private jet. According to a source, the businessman, who is said to be an active part of the community in the Isle of Man, has 'vigorously denied any wrongdoing'.

(CNN)A Facebook post by actor Ashton Kutcher lamenting the lack of diaper changing tables in public men's rooms has parents talking. The new father -- he and partner Mila Kunis welcomed baby Wyatt Isabelle in October -- complained to his followers that he had yet to encounter a changing table in the public bathrooms he visits. He offered to give a social media shout-out to the first business where he found a diapering table in the men's room. The post had logged more than 230,000 comments as of Wednesday morning. Lots of folks offered up places Kutcher should patronize, such as Walmart and Cracker Barrel, where they say changing tables abound. Some dads said they didn't have a problem finding changing tables, but it may be because they're frequenting more down-to-Earth establishments than the Hollywood star. Other posters said "family restrooms" would take care of the problem altogether. Do modern dads get enough credit? Many praised Kutcher for raising the issue: "Thank you for doing this. This is not just an issue for dad's such as yourself who are awesome, but so many of the families I know who have two daddies have this issue ALL The time," wrote one poster. Another mom agreed: "My boyfriend was taken aback when he had to get a key for the family change room instead of just going into the men's with our son because they had no change table. It doesn't make ANY SENSE. Gender equality needs to go both ways." No update yet on whether Kutcher has encountered a diapering station in a men's room.

A bust of Vladmir Putin, depicting the Russian leader dressed as a Roman emperor, is to be unveiled in St Petersburg. The Roman-style statue is being gifted by St.Petersburg’s fiercely nationalist Cossack community to commemorate the allies’ victory over Nazi Germany in the Second World War. The comparison of the strongman with the leaders of ancient Rome was in-part inspired by Putin’s decision to back pro-Russian separatists in the Ukraine,Newsweek reported. The clay mould was designed by a St. Petersburg sculptor, backed by the city's popular Cossack community . The bust is at the St Petersburg's Academy of arts, ahead to its unveiling at an underground station . St Petersburg’s traditionalist Cossack group Irbis, a popular organisation supporting Slavic military values, said the bust of Putin will be placed at an underground station in north St Petersburg. The city, formally Leningrad, is Putin’s home town. The bust’s designer, sculptor Pavel Greshnikov, was quoted as saying he had considered portraying the Russian leader in a suit and tie, in military fatigues and even in medieval armour. The statue is complete with a laurel wreath and other trappings of the Roman Empire. It is at Greshinov’s workshop at the St Petersburg Academy of arts, ahead to its unveiling. Putin may have upset some people with his Ukrainian activities, but in his hometown he is still popular . Cossacks have grown in popularity in Russian since the fall of communism in the 80s and 90s. The group, which prides itself on military valour and its Russian Orthodox Christian roots, has particularly warmed to Putin’s increasingly traditional values. Andrey Polykov, a local Cossack leader in St Petersburg, backed the creation of the Putin Statue. Lenin was commemorated in bronze throughout the USSR. However in many places the statues were torn down after the fall of communism . He was quoted as saying the Russian leader was one of the country’s ‘brightest’ and most ‘positive’ heads of state for ‘the last hundred years or so’. Polykov claimed Putin had a record as a peacemaker following wars in Georgia in 2008 and Moldova in the early 1990s. Boris Yeltsin, Putin’s predecessor, has also been immortalised in sculpture. A statue of the post-Soviet leader was erected in Yekaterinburg in 2011. Andrey Polyakov said his Cossack community had been planning for a long time to erect the Putin statue .

Burnley's Ashley Barnes was not punished for a horror challenge on Chelsea midfielder Nemanja Matic . Martin Atkinson's decision not to punish Burnley's Ashley Barnes for a tackle on Chelsea's Nemanja Matic attracted widespread criticism, while on Saturday Roger East sent off Sunderland's Wes Brown for a foul John O'Shea committed against Manchester United. East claimed on Saturday, through a PGMOL statement, that he had considered Brown to be the guilty party, hence his dismissal. Hackett, who used to head up the PGMOL - a job now done by Mike Riley - wants Webb, 43, to return. Speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live, he said: 'Referees are making big mistakes, week in, week out. They need some leadership and with that leadership the guy who is at the top needs to front up. 'He should be encouraging Howard Webb to come back into the game as a referee. I don't know what Howard is doing behind the scenes with the referees.' Hackett has not been shy in criticising standards over recent weeks and says officials are giving away cards 'like confetti'. John O'Shea fouled Manchester United striker Radamel Falcao in the box, but Wes Brown was sent off instead . The Sunderland players crowded round referee Roger East but the incorrect decision was allowed to stand . On the East decision, he said: 'I think it was another error in refereeing that we've seen, we're seeing it pretty often. 'I don't know if the referee was trying to be too clever or naive. He's guessed, incorrectly, dismissed the player which is a real cardinal sin. 'Sending a player off is belittling at any stage of play. I worked hard to reduce the number of yellow cards and red cards when I was the position of the general manager of PGMOL. These guys seem to be pushing them around like confetti and in their eagerness and forgetting that their job is to get decisions correct.' The East incident came on the very day that the International Football Association Board delayed trials of further use of video technology. The Dutch FA wanted to conduct live trials in the Dutch Cup next season, but were delayed by at least 12 months. The Football Association is also keen for further technology to be trialled, but chairman Greg Dyke told 5 Live he understood the problems referees were facing. 'I saw it (the East incident) briefly, mistakes happen, but what this shows is that referees make mistakes,' he said. 'If you could help that referee with video technology, then you should. There are still mistakes, they get highlighted, that's life.' Webb has been backed to come out of his retirement in order to improve the standard of refereeing .

<s>[INST] Former referee Keith Hackett has called on Howard Webb to come out of retirement in a bid to improve the standard of officiating. Webb, widely considered one of England's best ever referees, retired in August 2014 to become the technical director of the Professional Games Match Officials Limited (PGMOL). His first season out of the game has been littered with refereeing controversies, the most recent of which have come inside the last week.

Washington (CNN)House Speaker John Boehner said Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl is "innocent until proven guilty" after the U.S. military charged him with desertion and misbehavior before the enemy, but emphasized in an exclusive interview with CNN's Dana Bash that he was more concerned about the circumstances of his release. Bergdahl's attorney also released a statement on Wednesday, outlining his defense of the soldier and containing a two-page letter from Bergdahl describing the torture he endured, which included months spent chained to a bed and further years spent chained on all fours or locked in a cage. Shortly after the charges were announced, Bergdahl's attorneys released a lengthy statement that includes a letter sent to Milley earlier this month outlining their defense of the soldier. "In light of the nearly five years of harsh captivity Sgt. Bergdahl endured, the purpose of his leaving his unit, and his behavior while a prisoner, it would be unduly harsh to impose on him the lifetime stigma of a court-martial conviction or an other than honorable discharge and to deny him veterans benefits," attorney Eugene R. Fidell writes in the letter. The statement includes a two-page accounting from Bergdahl of his time in captivity, in which he recounts months spent chained to a bed, then further years spent chained on all fours or locked in a cage. Read the statement and Bergdahl's letter . Bergdahl said for years his body and health declined due to malnourishment, and sores on his wrists and ankles from the shackles grew infected. "My body started a steady decline in constant internal sickness that would last through the final year," he said. Bergdahl was frequently beaten, at times with copper wire or a thick rubber hose, and forced to watch Taliban videos, he said. He had no concept of time, and was repeatedly told he would be killed and would never again see his family. "I was kept in constant isolation during the entire five years, with little to no understanding of time, through periods of constant darkness, periods of constant light, and periods of completely random flickering of light and absolutely no understanding of anything that was happening beyond the door I was held behind," he wrote. Bergdahl tried a dozen times to escape, he wrote. In his interview with Bash, Boehner said "like any American, you're innocent until proven guilty." "And these charges are coming. There will be a trial," Boehner said in an interview taped Wednesday to air Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union." Boehner said the "more troubling part" of Bergdahl saga is the fact that the U.S. government traded five Taliban fighters for Bergdahl's release, and that recent reports indicate one has returned to the battlefield. He expressed concerns about other detainees held at the U.S. military prison at Guantanamo Bay, which President Barack Obama is working to close, "ending up back on the battlefield and threatening Americans here and abroad." Obama "violated the law" in failing to alert Congress before the prisoner swap occurred, Boehner added. "And I still believe that's the more troubling part of this," he said. "We've made clear in the past that we won't negotiate with terrorists, and but yet here we did." Military officials announced Wednesday afternoon they would charge Bergdahl with one count each of desertion and misbehavior before the enemy. Bergdahl left his post in Afghanistan before being captured and held captive for five years. For that, he faces charges that carry a maximum penalty of life in a military prison, and he could also have to forfeit pay and be stripped of his rank, Army Col. Daniel King said as he announced the charges. Bergdahl faces a military procedure similar to a grand jury that will whether charges are appropriate, King said. Then, he could face court martial proceedings. The decision comes nearly a year after Bergdahl returned to the United States as part of a prisoner exchange and since the Army began a formal investigation into his disappearance from his unit in eastern Afghanistan in June 2009. The Army concluded its investigation into the circumstances of Bergdahl's capture in December. Until now, it has been in the hands of Gen. Mark Milley, head of U.S. Army Forces Command, who made the decision to charge Bergdahl. Several U.S. military officials CNN has spoken with suggested privately that the process took longer than expected. Ahead of Wednesday's announcement, officials said Milley only had a few choices. Though the sense had been that Bergdahl must be held accountable for his actions, there had been little appetite for a lengthy term in military confinement given the five years Bergdahl was held by the Taliban. Now 28, Bergdahl was taken by the Haqqani terrorist network. But the circumstances of Bergdahl's departure from his base and how willingly he left have not been clear. King said he couldn't offer those details on Wednesday, and that they're being treated as evidence for the upcoming proceedings against Bergdahl. Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman John McCain, R-Arizona, called the charges an "important step" on Wednesday. "This is an important step in the military justice process towards determining the accountability of Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl," he said in a statement. "I am confident that the Department of the Army will continue to ensure this process is conducted with the utmost integrity under the Uniform Code of Military Justice." Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-South Carolina, meanwhile, lambasted the "unevenness" of Obama's swap of five Taliban prisoners for Bergdahl. "I wouldn't have done this trade for a Medal of Honor winner," he told CNN. "No military member should expect their country to turn over five Taliban commanders to get their release. Nobody should expect that. It's not the nature of his service that drives my thinking it's just the illogical nature of the swap." Some members of Bergdahl's platoon have criticized him, labeling Bergdahl a deserter. "I was pissed off then, and I am even more so now with everything going on," former Sgt. Matt Vierkant, a member of Bergdahl's platoon when he went missing on June 30, 2009, told CNN last year. "Bowe Bergdahl deserted during a time of war, and his fellow Americans lost their lives searching for him." Bergdahl was freed in May when President Barack Obama agreed to swap five Taliban prisoners who had been detained in Guantanamo Bay to secure Bergdahl's freedom, sending those detainees to Qatar. Obama announced Bergdahl's release to fanfare in the White House Rose Garden, flanked by the Army sergeant's parents, Bob and Jani Bergdahl. His hometown of Hailey, Idaho, had planned a parade to celebrate Bergdahl's homecoming but later canceled that celebration amid security concerns stemming from the unanswered questions surrounding his disappearance and the resulting controversy over his release. After returning to the United States, Bergdahl had been on active duty at an administrative job at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio, Texas. There, the Army assigned Bergdahl a "sponsor" to help him adjust to life in his new post. Upon returning, Bergdahl refused to meet with his parents -- and months later, Army officials had said he was communicating with them but still had not met them face to face. The five figures the United States exchanged to secure Bergdahl's release were Khair Ulla Said Wali Khairkhwa, Mullah Mohammad Fazl, Mullah Norullah Nori, Abdul Haq Wasiq and Mohammad Nabi Omari. They were mostly mid- to high-level officials in the Taliban regime and had been detained early in the war in Afghanistan because of their positions within the Taliban, not because of ties to al Qaeda. The detainee swap for Bergdahl has become increasingly controversial in recent weeks after a report published by the office of Director of National Intelligence James Clapper said one of the 17 intelligence agencies operating under its umbrella had judged that a prisoner released in the exchange had since contacted the Taliban. CNN's Ted Barrett and Alexandra Jaffe contributed to this report.

A London woman is embroiled in a fight for compensation with Jet Airways after toilets and sinks overflowed and smelly water seeped into the cabin during an eight-hour flight. Passengers, including two families with infant children, were forced to endure the pungent smell for about six hours as they travelled from Delhi to London. Traveller Amrita Jaurre snapped photos as water flowed into the aisles and rows, and cabin crew scrambled to contain the mess by piling newspapers on the floor. Photos show water trickling into the aisle (left) and newspapers that were used to soak up the mess (right) The 27-year-old office worker told MailOnline Travel: ‘After two hours, myself and other passengers noticed water seeping out from under the two lavatories closest to our seats. ‘We complained to the air steward who took no notice at first but once the overflow become more obvious, he realised we were not over exaggerating. ‘He then told us that the water was overflowing from the toilet and sink in both lavatories, so you can imagine the smell that we then had to endure for the remainder of the flight.’ She added: ‘It was quite difficult to tell whether the liquid contained human waste, but it would not surprise me as … the liquid overflowing from the lavatories definitely had a foul urine-like smell.’ Passengers were forced to cover their mouths and noses with scarves or clothing to escape the stench. However, the airline claims the water was simply leaking from sinks. Passengers used articles of clothing to cover their mouths and noses as water flowed into the cabin . In an attempt to cover the smell a flight attendant sprayed the wet patches with an air freshener. Amrita said: ‘This then led to complaints from a nearby passenger who suffered from asthma and couldn't be near such a strong fragrance without risking an asthma attack. ‘After this, the flight attendant went back to check on the lavatories and almost gagged when he opened the door so I can only imagine the state of the toilets.’ Amrita said the situation became worse over the course of the flight last month as the toilet and sink in the lavatory on the opposite side of the plane began to overflow as well. Passengers were forced to endure the stench for about six hours as they travelled from Delhi to London . She said she lodged a complaint on Twitter after returning to London, and the Mumbai-based airline offered an apology. She complained again and was offered a 2,000-point credit for Jet Airways’ frequent flyer club. She wasn’t satisfied with the offer, saying: ‘Personally, I have no intention to ever fly with Jet Airways again after that experience. A spokesperson for Jet Airways told MailOnline Travel: 'Jet Airways regrets any inconvenience caused to guests on board flight 9W122 DEL - LHR dt.,Feb 15, 2015, on account of reverse drainage from the sinks on board the aircraft. 'As per our investigation, the overflow was only of water from the sink. All human waste is carried by separate system and lines which functioned normally during the flight.' Jet Airways investigated the incident and maintains the liquid leaking was coming from the sinks . Ms Jaurre said: ‘Ideally, I would like compensation from Jet Airways because I feel that their offer of frequent flyer miles isn't sufficient, given that I was already quite ill on the flight and it didn't help then having to sit in that unhygienic and filthy cabin. ‘I'm unsure if any other passengers became ill but as the liquid continued to overflow and the smell became more evident, it gave me a very bad headache and made me nauseous which put me off my in-flight meal.’ She added: ‘I became quite ill after the flight with a combination of throat infection, ear infection and stomach pains and had to take a week off from work to get better. Whether these were a direct result of the situation on-board, I cannot say but it definitely didn't help.’ She is seeking monetary compensation plus a refund to cover the cost of the ticket. ‘Nobody should ever have to sit through such disgusting in-flight conditions and the right checks should have been made to the aircraft to ensure things like this shouldn't have happened.’

For nine-year-old Xiang Xiang, there is only one ambition - he just wants to be able to look at himself in the mirror like other children. The youngster suffered severe burns to his face and head four years ago after he fell into a fire, and underwent a skin graft operation that has meant he had to spend years wearing a mask to help his scorched flesh to heal. Dubbed 'Mask Boy' in China after his plight was raised in online reports, Xiang Xiang (not his real name) would rather not have to wear the headgear – but also wants to be 'handsome' so that other people no longer stare or, worse, bully him. Xiang Xiang was dubbed 'Mask Boy' after he suffered severe burns falling into a fire four years ago . The nine-year-old hates wearing the mask and it is hopes a series of further operations will rid him of the headgear . His family have taken him to Beijing, where he is set to undergo a series of further operations to repair the damage to his face and body at a cost of around 300,000 yuan (£32,000). Since being horrifically burned Xiang Xiang has only looked in the mirror once and seen the full extent of his disfigurement, according to his father. 'At the time he stared at the mirror for a long time and said one sentence, ''How did my face get so burnt?'' and then he never looked into the mirror again,' Mr Wang told the People's Daily. 'We are afraid he will be bullied and hurt. So this time coming to Beijing we must have our son healed so that he can be handsome again.' After the initial skin transplant, the boy was forced to endure a lengthy wait for further surgery to allow his breathing to fully recover from the ordeal. The nine-year-old wants to be 'handsome' and his family fear that he will be bullied because of his appearance . Xiang Xiang was playing with two friends when he fell into the fire leaving him horrifically injured . The lengthy delay has led to Xiang Xiang becoming self conscious about his appearance and aware of how his facial expressions and vision are restricted. 'At the end of last year his breathing ability had recovered and was at the standard required for the operation to go ahead,' said Mr Wang. 'My son said to me that he had to do the operation so that he could get rid of the mask.' The boy was forced to endure the cruel stares of passers-by after he bravely decided to remove his mask as he travelled to the hospital for his latest round of treatment. He told his father his father he needed further operations to 'get rid of the mask' The boy was forced to endure the cruel stares of passers-by after he bravely decided to remove his mask as he travelled to the hospital . 'People were staring at Xiang Xiang's injury which made the child very sad,' said Mr Wang. 'In the past my son hated the mask and often when he was getting ready to sleep he would hide the mask hoping that the next day he would not need to wear it any more.' Xiang Xiang was just five-years-old when he fell into the flames as he played with two friends in Fenyang. He also lost one finger on his left hand. After undergoing an initial skin transplant he was forced to wear the white coloured mask that was specially designed to assist the healing process. Heartbreaking images of little Xiang Xiang were beamed around the globe and led to a fund being set up to help pay for the boy's treatment. The latest operations will look to address the opening and closing of his mouth, the limited use of his hand and hair loss. His father said when Xiang Xiang was getting ready to sleep he would sometimes hide the mask in the hope that the next day he would not need to wear it any more . Xiang Xiang is said to hate the mask that protects his skin and is eager to finally see the back of it . Dr Shen, who is in charge of the boy's treatment, explained that he needed to undergo further surgery to ensure that he did not develop in an unnatural manner.

<s>[INST] For nine-year-old Xiang Xiang, there is only one ambition - he just wants to be able to look at himself in the mirror like other children. The youngster suffered severe burns to his face and head four years ago after he fell into a fire, and underwent a skin graft operation that has meant he had to spend years wearing a mask to help his scorched flesh to heal. Dubbed 'Mask Boy' in China after his plight was raised in online reports, Xiang Xiang (not his real name) would rather not have to wear the headgear – but also wants to be 'handsome' so that other people no longer stare or, worse, bully him. Xiang Xiang was dubbed 'Mask Boy' after he suffered severe burns falling into a fire four years ago . The nine-year-old hates wearing the mask and it is hopes a series of further operations will rid him of the headgear . His family have taken him to Beijing, where he is set to undergo a series of further operations to repair the damage to his face and body at a cost of around 300,000 yuan (£32,000). Since being horrifically burned Xiang Xiang has only looked in the mirror once and seen the full extent of his disfigurement, according to his father. 'At the time he stared at the mirror for a long time and said one sentence, ''How did my face get so burnt?'' and then he never looked into the mirror again,' Mr Wang told the People's Daily. 'We are afraid he will be bullied and hurt. So this time coming to Beijing we must have our son healed so that he can be handsome again.' After the initial skin transplant, the boy was forced to endure a lengthy wait for further surgery to allow his breathing to fully recover from the ordeal. The nine-year-old wants to be 'handsome' and his family fear that he will be bullied because of his appearance . Xiang Xiang was playing with two friends when he fell into the fire leaving him horrifically injured . The lengthy delay has led to Xiang Xiang becoming self conscious about his appearance and aware of how his facial expressions and vision are restricted. 'At the end of last year his breathing ability had recovered and was at the standard required for the operation to go ahead,' said Mr Wang. 'My son said to me that he had to do the operation so that he could get rid of the mask.' The boy was forced to endure the cruel stares of passers-by after he bravely decided to remove his mask as he travelled to the hospital for his latest round of treatment. He told his father his father he needed further operations to 'get rid of the mask' The boy was forced to endure the cruel stares of passers-by after he bravely decided to remove his mask as he travelled to the hospital . 'People were staring at Xiang Xiang's injury which made the child very sad,' said Mr Wang. 'In the past my son hated the mask and often when he was getting ready to sleep he would hide the mask hoping that the next day he would not need to wear it any more.' Xiang Xiang was just five-years-old when he fell into the flames as he played with two friends in Fenyang. He also lost one finger on his left hand. After undergoing an initial skin transplant he was forced to wear the white coloured mask that was specially designed to assist the healing process. Heartbreaking images of little Xiang Xiang were beamed around the globe and led to a fund being set up to help pay for the boy's treatment. The latest operations will look to address the opening and closing of his mouth, the limited use of his hand and hair loss. His father said when Xiang Xiang was getting ready to sleep he would sometimes hide the mask in the hope that the next day he would not need to wear it any more . Xiang Xiang is said to hate the mask that protects his skin and is eager to finally see the back of it . Dr Shen, who is in charge of the boy's treatment, explained that he needed to undergo further surgery to ensure that he did not develop in an unnatural manner. 'As he grows up, and with skin growing back, it is possible that we need further rectifying operations,' he said. 'Therefore Xiang Xiang's plastic surgery will not be completed in one go. 'There will be at least seven to ten operations to complete the basic recovery. 'At present each operation will be limited to the three-hour mark to prevent the anaesthetic from harming the child.'

West Brom boss Tony Pulis is keeping his cards close to his chest in terms of his goalkeeper selection for Saturday's FA Cup quarter-final at Aston Villa. The Barclays Premier League derby between the two clubs at Villa Park on Tuesday ended in a 2-1 victory for the hosts after a stoppage-time error from Ben Foster saw the Baggies and England shot-stopper give away a penalty that was converted by Christian Benteke. Pulis spoke up for Foster - who has kept six clean sheets in all competitions since the Welshman took over at Albion - after the game. Ben Foster is not guaranteed to keep his place against Aston Villa in the FA Cup quarter-finals . Foster brought down Matthew Lowton to concede a penalty against Villa in Premier League clash on Tuesday . Christian Benteke scored from the spot to give their midlands rivals a late victory at Villa Park . And while refusing to say outright whether or not the 31-year-old would keep his place at the weekend, the head coach once again had praise for Foster at his press conference on Thursday to preview the cup tie. Asked about his goalkeeper selection for Saturday's game, Pulis said: 'I'll be telling the goalkeepers first before I tell you! 'Boaz Myhill has had an injury with a finger, which we have to take into account. 'With the number of clean sheets he has kept (12 overall this season), Ben has been absolutely fantastic. 'Everybody makes mistakes. Goalkeepers get highlighted, like referees, because it can cost you games.' Baggies boss Tony Pulis has backed his No 1 without confirming Foster will keep his place on Saturday . Saido Berahino celebrates while being chased by his team-mates, after netting his 18th goal of the season . With regard to referees, another notable incident from the latter stages of Tuesday's game saw Villa defender Alan Hutton make a nasty-looking challenge on West Brom striker Saido Berahino and the pair square up to each other before each being booked. It appeared Hutton was lucky not to have been sent off by referee Jonathan Moss. And while Pulis was keen on Thursday to avoid hitting out at the official for not doing so, he did once again express his desire for there to be a referral system for managers during games where they get 'two calls' each, something he has spoken about in the past. 'I've seen the challenge back,' said Pulis. Alan Hutton appeared to raise his studs into Berahino's leg during Aston Villa's win over West Brom .

'Jon didn't cost us the game on Tuesday, we cost ourselves the game. 'People make good decisions and bad decisions and you have to accept it - but I'm sure he'll look back at it and maybe will analyse it differently to how he did on the night.' He then added: 'I would have two calls during a game, where managers can call things back. 'You could put advertising on the big screens (at the same time) - the clubs could make some money from it. Pulis has labelled the alleged spitting incident involving Jonny Evans (left) and Papiss Cisse as 'disgusting' 'And it gives a chance to the officials to get right decisions that could be big. They, FIFA and UEFA, have to accept that referees do make mistakes.' Pulis also made his feelings clear about spitting following Wednesday night's incident involving Manchester United defender Jonny Evans and Newcastle striker Papiss Cisse. 'It is disgusting and disgraceful,' Pulis said. 'Spitting should never be anywhere near our game. It should be dealt with.' Pulis, while mindful of his side's ongoing league battle to avoid relegation, says he will try to put his 'strongest team' out on Saturday. Stephane Sessegnon (right) will be given time to cope with 'personal problems' before returning to the team . Forward Victor Anichebe (groin) remains unavailable, and winger Callum McManaman is a doubt due to a foot injury. Pulis has also said West Brom 'have to go careful' with Stephane Sessegnon due to the forward's 'personal problems' - understood to be a family bereavement - and that there are a few 'knocks and niggles' to deal with. Berahino and fellow frontman Brown Ideye have both been playing recently with pain-killing injections.

A new study of the Islamic State's finances has revealed previous that estimates suggesting the terror group earns $2billion every year could be far too low. ISIS' finance chief Sheikh Abu Saad al-Ansari - who operates from ISIS' Iraqi stronghold Mosul - is understood to have recently approved the terror group's first annual budget  - revealing and estimated spend of $2 billion this year, plus a expected surplus of $250 million. The budget suggests ISIS' annual income could be as much a quarter of a billion dollars more than experts previously suggested - with the bulk of the terror group's revenue coming from oil sales, organ harvesting, ransom and extortion payments, and the looting and sale of ancient antiquities. If the revised figure is accurate, it means ISIS' annual income now exceeds that of Al Qaeda - making the terror group lead by Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi the wealthiest jihadi organisation in history. Criminal: Despite ISIS' claims to be a devout religious organisation, the majority of their income is believed to come from illegal means - such as mafia-style extortion threats - and even drug and people smuggling . The United States Treasury's Under Secretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence, David S Cohen, appeared to confirm that ISIS earns far more than previously estimated, according to Middle East Eye, by confirming that the terror group's budget was more than $2 billion. Despite ISIS' claims to be a devout religious organisation, the majority of their income is believed to come from illegal means - such as the black-market sale of oil, mafia-style extortion threats - and even drug and people smuggling. According to the Russian Federal Drug Control Service, ISIS has turned the ancient city of Nineveh, adjacent to Turkish borders, is a centre for its heroin trade, MME reports.. Experts believe that roughly $1billion of ISIS' income comes from the sale of heroin and that half the heroin on sale in Europe has passed through the terrorists' hands and helped to fill its coffers. Power: If the revised figure is accurate, it means ISIS' annual income now exceeds that of Al Qaeda - making the terror group lead by Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi (pictured) the wealthiest jihadi organisation in history . MailOnline revealed last December that human organ traffiking is another way ISIS finances its activities . Last month the UN's ambassador to Iraq, Mohamed Alhakim, claimed that dozens of bodies with surgical incisions and missing body parts have been found in shallow mass graves near Mosul. Looted treasure: This gold-plated bronze figurine was stolen from a museum in Hama, western Syria . Speaking of ISIS' organ harvesting operations, Mr Alhakim said: 'We have bodies. Come and examine them. It is clear they are missing certain parts.' He also said a dozen doctors have been 'executed' in Mosul for refusing to participate in organ harvesting. The shocking news of ISIS trade in human organs was first revealed in a report by al-Monitor news website in December, citing an Iraqi ear, nose and throat doctor named Siruwan al-Mosuli. He told the site that ISIS commanders hired foreign doctors to run an extensive organ trafficking system from a hospital in Mosul that is already beginning to generate huge profits.

He told the site that ISIS commanders hired foreign doctors to run an extensive organ trafficking system from a hospital in Mosul that is already beginning to generate huge profits. Last month it was revealed that militants fighting for ISIS in Syria are making millions of pounds selling ancient statues and mosaics to wealthy Westerners using a complex system of smugglers and middle men. Looted from ancient buildings in ISIS strongholds, such as the group's de facto capital city Raqqa, the antiquities are up to 10,000-years-old and can exchange hands for more than $1 million each. Lucrative: ISIS has set up a specialist organ-smuggling division whose sole responsibility is to sell human hearts, livers and kidneys on the lucrative international black market . Security: A Syrian police officer patrols the ancient of Palmyra to protect its ruins from looters and smugglers . The most expensive items are covertly smuggled overseas - usually on the orders of wealthy Europeans - but there is also a lucrative trade in less historically important objects, which often find their way into tourist shops and markets in neighbouring Lebanon and Turkey. The trade in antiquities is one of ISIS' primary sources of funding, along with oil and ransom payments, and is estimated to fills the terrorists coffers with tens of millions of pounds every year. The finer points of ISIS trade in antiquities was uncovered in an investigation by the BBC. It revealed that ISIS militants charge smugglers 20 per cent on the sale of ancient items found or looted in territory under its control. If the smugglers decide not to buy the items, they are promptly smashed to pieces as examples of idolatry, regardless of their historic significance. ISIS is believed to generate a total of several million pounds a day, with approximately £400,000 of that coming from the sale of oil. Wealthiest jihadis in history: ISIS' budget suggests the terror group's annual income could be as much a quarter of a billion dollars more than experts previously suggested . A further £250,00 comes from extortion and protection money paid by companies and individuals operating in areas under its control, while ISIS also makes money from farming, water services and electricity production. Revenue obtained from ransoms paid by the families or governments of kidnapped individuals in less easy to calculate, but the price for release is usually millions of pounds. Companies and lorry drivers are forced to pay road and import taxes to use roads in areas under ISIS' control - with lorries charged £500 per journey, plus a further £250 tax for electronic good and £200 for food parcels. However one expected source of income is the looting of antiques from the many ancient religious sites in areas under its command. For example, one Iraqi intelligence official claimed that ISIS earned £23 million in early 2014 alone by selling 800 items stolen from the ancient city of Al-Nabk near Damascus.

Lord Justice Beatson has criticised the RSPCA during a court case over the investigation of a pair of a dog breeders whose animals were unlawfully inspected by the charity's officers . The RSPCA has been rapped by a High Court judge over a botched investigation into dog breeders suspected of causing unnecessary suffering to animals. The trial of Deborah Fuller, 55, and Phil Sheldrake, 59, collapsed after it emerged the animal protection agency used the wrong warrant to enter the couple's property in Lawford, Essex. Senior judge Lord Justice Beatson today threw out an application by the RSPCA for judicial review of the decision to close the case - insisting it was important 'officers of the state' respected the restrictions on their powers. The RSPCA was challenging a decision of district judge Kenneth Sheraton at Colchester Magistrates' Court in June last year blocking the prosecution. Judge Sheraton excluded evidence obtained during a search of premises owned by Deborah Fuller, 55, and Phil Sheldrake, 59, who pleaded not guilty to 16 charges of causing unnecessary suffering to dogs and failing to take reasonable steps to meet their needs. The case related to 42 Ridgebacks and two Hamiltonstovare seized from Fuller and Sheldrake's house in Lawford, Essex, in August 2013, when RSPCA inspectors accompanied officers from Tendring Council and the police on to their property. The search led to RSPCA allegations that some 17 of the dogs were emaciated, six of them severely so, and one was suffering from a facial tumour. All the dogs are currently being looked after by the RSPCA. The trial was halted when it emerged that council officers had only obtained a search warrant to investigate complaints that the couple had caused a 'statutory nuisance' because of the noise of the dogs barking and the smell coming from faeces that had not been cleared up. Judge Sheraton found there was no warrant issued allowing an inspection of the condition of the dogs. The judge put down to 'inexperience and misunderstanding rather than malicious intent' that Fuller was advised that the EPA warrant permitted inspection of the dogs when it clearly did not. The RSPCA applied to the High Court in London for judicial review, arguing that even if the 'dominant purpose' of the warrant granted under the EPA was to investigate a possible statutory nuisance, there was still scope for dogs found to be in poor condition to be seized and a criminal prosecution brought. The RSPCA went to the High Court to have the botched prosecution reviewed, but its claims were rejected . Dismissing the argument Lord Justice Beatson, sitting with Mr Justice Blake, said local council officers and the RSPCA had gone on to premises 'intent on carrying out a search for purposes for which they had not been authorised'. Lord Justice Beatson said it was the 800th anniversary of Magna Carta and important to continue observing legal restrictions on 'officers of the state' - and bodies like the RSPCA acting with them - entering private land. He said the case involved 'officers of the state aided by a well-funded charity, which does excellent work in many cases, using the power of the state to compulsorily enter land'. He added: 'It is incumbent on officers of the state, and those who assist them in this way, to take care that the principle of legality that has protected us well over many centuries is observed'.

Trial of two dog breeders accused of neglect collapsed over warrant row . RSPCA did not have the necessary powers to inspect the animals . Agency went to High Court to have magistrates decision reviewed . But senior judge throws out claims, backing restrictions on officers .

The RSPCA has been rapped by a High Court judge over a botched investigation into dog breeders suspected of causing unnecessary suffering to animals. The trial of Deborah Fuller, 55, and Phil Sheldrake, 59, collapsed after it emerged the animal protection agency used the wrong warrant to enter the couple's property in Lawford, Essex. Senior judge Lord Justice Beatson today threw out an application by the RSPCA for judicial review of the decision to close the case - insisting it was important 'officers of the state' respected the restrictions on their powers. The RSPCA was challenging a decision of district judge Kenneth Sheraton at Colchester Magistrates' Court in June last year blocking the prosecution. Judge Sheraton excluded evidence obtained during a search of premises owned by Deborah Fuller, 55, and Phil Sheldrake, 59, who pleaded not guilty to 16 charges of causing unnecessary suffering to dogs and failing to take reasonable steps to meet their needs. The case related to 42 Ridgebacks and two Hamiltonstovare seized from Fuller and Sheldrake's house in Lawford, Essex, in August 2013, when RSPCA inspectors accompanied officers from Tendring Council and the police on to their property. The search led to RSPCA allegations that some 17 of the dogs were emaciated, six of them severely so, and one was suffering from a facial tumour. All the dogs are currently being looked after by the RSPCA. The trial was halted when it emerged that council officers had only obtained a search warrant to investigate complaints that the couple had caused a 'statutory nuisance' because of the noise of the dogs barking and the smell coming from faeces that had not been cleared up. Judge Sheraton found there was no warrant issued allowing an inspection of the condition of the dogs. The judge put down to 'inexperience and misunderstanding rather than malicious intent' that Fuller was advised that the EPA warrant permitted inspection of the dogs when it clearly did not. The RSPCA applied to the High Court in London for judicial review, arguing that even if the 'dominant purpose' of the warrant granted under the EPA was to investigate a possible statutory nuisance, there was still scope for dogs found to be in poor condition to be seized and a criminal prosecution brought. The RSPCA went to the High Court to have the botched prosecution reviewed, but its claims were rejected . Dismissing the argument Lord Justice Beatson, sitting with Mr Justice Blake, said local council officers and the RSPCA had gone on to premises 'intent on carrying out a search for purposes for which they had not been authorised'. Lord Justice Beatson said it was the 800th anniversary of Magna Carta and important to continue observing legal restrictions on 'officers of the state' - and bodies like the RSPCA acting with them - entering private land. He said the case involved 'officers of the state aided by a well-funded charity, which does excellent work in many cases, using the power of the state to compulsorily enter land'. He added: 'It is incumbent on officers of the state, and those who assist them in this way, to take care that the principle of legality that has protected us well over many centuries is observed'.

Archaeologists have discovered the long lost remains of Miguel de Cervantes - the author of Don Quixote . Archaeologists have discovered the long lost remains of Miguel de Cervantes - the author of Don Quixote- in a Madrid chapel. Forensic scientists said they found the bones of the famous Spanish writer and his family in Madrid's Convent of the Barefoot Trinitarians. The author of The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha,' considered the most influential work of Spanish literature, was buried in 1616 and the church was later rebuilt. But his remains were moved into the new building in the late 17th Century, and disappeared. His bones were lost for centuries until earlier this year when archaeologists used 3D scanners, infrared cameras and ground-penetrating radar to discover a forgotten crypt under the building. Inside the niche, they found the lid of a coffin with the initials MC - for Miguel de Cervantes - and bones of at least ten people were also found inside the niche. Researchers said separating and identifying his badly damaged remains will be difficult but work is underway to recover his bones. Although there is no genetic proof at this stage, the team of anthropologists and archaeologists said they were confident of the claim on the basis of the documentary research they carried out. 'The remains are in a bad state of conservation and do not allow us to do an individual identification of Miguel de Cervantes,' forensic scientist Almudena Garcia Rubio told the BBC. Scroll down for video . 'But we are sure what the historical sources say is the burial of Miguel de Cervantes and the other people buried with him is what we have found.' Discovery: Experts analyse bones to find the remains of the 17th Century author Miguel de Cervantes at the Convent of the Barefoot Trinitarians in Madrid . On one of the wooden fragments the initials 'MC' can be clearly seen; investigators also discovered bones which they have determined belong to the late author Miguel de Cervantes . Cervantes was 69 when he died in 1616 and in accordance with his wishes, he was buried in the Convent of the Barefoot Trinitarians in Madrid's historic Barrio de las Letras, or Literary Quarter. 1547: Born near Madrid . 1571: Shot and wounded at Battle of Lepanto . 1575: Captured and enslaved for five years in Algiers . 1605: Publishes first part of The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha. 1615: Cervantes published the second part of his celebrated work . 1616: Cervantes dies aged 68, from suspected diabetes and with just six teeth remaining. He is buried at Convent of Barefoot Trinitarians . 1673: His remains are lost went when the convent is rebuilt . 2015: His tomb is rediscovered . His remains were then lost for centuries after his bones mysteriously went missing in 1673 when building works was done at the convent. Investigators were able to use clues from the author's own stories to help them identify the remains. Shortly before his death Cervantes wrote that he only has six teeth, but the most obvious marks were his battle wounds. In 1571, the writer was injured in the Battle of Lepanto, which pitted Ottoman Turkish forces against the Holy League, led by Spain. Aboard the ship La Marquesa, Cervantes was hit with three musket shots, two in the chest and one in his hand. Investigator Luis Avial told a news conference on Tuesday that Cervantes would be reburied 'with full honours' in the same convent after a new tomb had been built, according to his wishes. 'Cervantes asked to be buried there and there he should stay,' said Luis Avial, georadar expert on the search team. Excavation: A team of archaeologists and anthropologists take notes after starting the excavation work after identifying three unrecorded and unidentified graves in the chapel's crypt last January . Experts searching for the lost remains of the author of Don Quixote found wooden fragments of a casket bearing his initials with bones in and around them in a crypt in Madrid . The convent's religious order helped pay for his ransom after he was captured by pirates and held prisoner for five years in Algiers. He spent several months in a hospital in Sicily, but managed to recover. Cervantes is a towering figure in Spanish culture. His novel 'The Adventures of the Ingenious Nobleman Don Quixote of La Mancha' changed Spanish literature. The crypt will be opened to the public next year for the first time in centuries to coincide with the 400th anniversary of Cervantes' death. Experts pick through the broken coffins and dirt looking for bone fragments and other evidence . A plaque commemorating Cervantes on the Convent of Trinitarians in Madrid where he was buried . Don Quixote was the magnum opus of Miguel de Cervantes and was published in two volumes, in 1605 and 1615. It is considered the most influential work of Spanish literature and one of the greatest works of fiction ever published. The book is also believed be one of the most widely read and translated books in the world. Cervantes influence on the Spanish language has been so great that the language is often referred to as 'the language of Cervantes'. The author died in 1616 at the age of 69. In accordance with his wishes, Cervantes was buried in in the Convent of the Barefoot Trinitarians in Madrid's historic Barrio de las Letras, or Literary Quarter. His bones went missing in 1673 when work was undertaken at the convent. They were thought to have initially been taken to another convent before being returned.

Miguel de Cervantes was buried in 1616 in the Literary Quarter in Madrid . His remains went missing centuries ago when work was done to convent . In January a coffin lid with initial MC and bodies of 10 people were found . Forensic scientists now say the find is the missing remains of Cervantes .

If history and a tilt at the career grand slam at the Masters seems a world away for Rory McIlroy amidst the water torture of Doral, then this is the week when it will all come into blessed focus. Forget the frustrated figure he cut on Friday when he created a YouTube highlight with his highland toss of his three iron into one of the many hazards that give the Blue Monster its name. This week it will all feel like stale news when he makes the ultimate golfing road trip. How does a couple of days behind closed doors at Augusta sound, with your dad for company, a couple of mates, a club member who knows all the course secrets and an athlete who is even more celebrated in America than the world No1? Rory McIlroy plays a shot on the sixth at the the WGC-Cadillac Championship on Saturday . McIlroy plans to link up with four-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady at Augusta . All that awaits the 25-year-old as he combines a bit of rest and recreation with a touch of sharp prep work with the first major of the season now just a month away. ‘To be honest, Augusta National is probably even nicer without the crowds than it is during the Masters, so it’s going to be a great experience,’ he said. The much-decorated athlete? None other than Tom Brady, quarterback with the New England Patriots and a four-time Super Bowl champion. He has played Augusta once before and shot a 77, so he is clearly no mean competitor. For a massive fan of virtually every sport like McIlroy, the appeal of linking up with Brady is obvious. As for the club member, Jeff Knox accompanied McIlroy when he was first man out in the third round of the Masters last year. Acting as marker, the 52 year old actually outscored him shooting 70 to McIlroy’s 71, with the latter describing Knox’s performance on the greens as ‘the best I have ever seen at Augusta’. World No 1 McIlroy threw a club into the water in frustration after more erratic play on Friday . It is not rocket science, therefore, as to why McIlroy would seek him out in a more friendly setting in an attempt to pick his brain. At the season’s first major, McIlroy will be attempting to complete not only the career grand slam but a third major victory in a row, following his successes in The Open and the USPGA last year. As for Doral and the WGC-Cadillac Championship, McIlroy began his third round yesterday eight shots adrift of the leader JB Holmes. He actually made up three strokes on Holmes on Friday despite his three iron following his golf ball into the water at the par-five eighth. McIlroy played a lot better once he had let off steam, with the result that there were only nine players ahead of him at the halfway stage. Among them were some powerful hitters, including Dustin Johnson, Henrik Stenson and Bubba Watson. Welshman Jamie Donaldson was ninth. Australian Adam Scott turned in a remarkable opening two rounds to be just three off the lead. The Australian was not only playing his first tournament for three months, he was using a standard-length putter for the first time in four years.

(CNN)The UK's Metropolitan Police has summoned five football fans to answer allegations of racism. It relates to an incident captured on camera, prior to Chelsea's European Champions League match with Paris Saint-Germain last month. In the French capital before the match an apparent group of Chelsea fans are caught on camera, appearing to prevent a black man boarding the Paris Metro. The video, widely shared on social media, also depicted the group of men chanting: "We're racist, we're racist and that's the way we like it." The man in the video was blocked several times from boarding the train and shoved off at least twice. He was later identified as Souleymane S, a 33-year-old Parisian on his way home from work. London's Met Police had appealed for help to identify those responsible but in a statement released Wednesday, said five men were due in court later this month. It read: "On 10 March and 11 March, the Metropolitan Police Service served summonses on five men involved in incidents on the Paris Metro before the Paris Saint-Germain v Chelsea Champions League fixture on Tuesday 17 February. "They have been summonsed to appear at Waltham Forest Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, 25 March regarding a police application for football banning orders." The authorities have not identified any of the alleged perpetrators. Chelsea were quick to condemn the group, saying in a statement after the incident that the chanting was "abhorrent" and something that "has no place in football or society." Manager Jose Mourinho said he was "ashamed" by the flashpoint, while the club moved quickly to suspend the five men involved. It said they faced a life ban should they be found guilty. "I watched the image the next day, I didn't want to watch again, I watched only once," Mourinho told reporters a few days after the match in Paris. "It is enough for me, it is sad enough for me. It is a humiliation for that gentleman, I imagine myself in that same situation, I want to go home after a day of work and a couple of guys they kick me out of my public transport." A club spokesperson also confirmed that Chelsea's Russian owner Roman Abramovich was "disgusted" by the incident whilst French President Francois Hollande personally spoke to Souleymane. Chelsea invited him to attend the return fixture at Stamford Bridge but he declined the offer. "I won't go," he was quoted as saying by French radio station RTL. "They can't buy me with a little piece of paper. I'm not a child. "I don't want to sit in that stadium next to those people who pushed me. I still hear the voices of those people who pushed me because of the color of my skin." Football banning orders can last for between three and ten years, and any breach can result in a criminal offense, with a prison sentence of up to six months.

A woman, 72, from Honolulu has been blind for over two years but thanks to her new bionic eye she will miraculously be able to see again. The elderly Japanese woman underwent the four hour procedure at the Eye Surgery Center of Hawaii on Tuesday and is the first person to receive the implant in the Asia Pacific region. The woman's identity will not be released. CBS reports that the bionic eye only works for those who have the hereditary disease, retinitis pigmentosa which causes vision impairment. Scroll down for video . Groundbreaking surgery: A woman, 72, from Honolulu has been blind for over two years but thanks to her new bionic eye implanted on Tuesday she will be able to see again . Blind: The Japanese woman, 72, has been blind for two years due to a condition called retinitis pigmentosa . Dr. Gregg Kokame, who performed the operation, said that the bionic eye will help the woman start to see motion and different shades of grey. 'She'll actually start to see motion, actually start to see somebody walk into the room and be able to see different shades of grey,' Kokame said. The device which was approved by the food and drug administration costs $144,000 but was covered by Medicare for the patient, reported ABC. Before the surgery the woman was only able to perceive some light and was otherwise totally blind. The surgical team restored the woman's vision by implanting a microelectrode array to the surface of the woman's retina that then connects wirelessly to a camera connected to a pair of glasses. The woman will not able to see very close details or any color but she may someday have a broader range of vision as the technology advances. New light: The woman won't be able to see color but she will be able to detect motion and prior to her surgery was barely able to detect light . Camera eye: The bionic eye sends signals to the brain through glasses that have a camera and as the technology improves the woman will be able to see more and more . The woman will be able to use her new device in two weeks after she is fully healed from the surgery. 'She was in very good spirits, ‘Kokame said. 'She's a very pleasant, very strong lady. She's looking forward to having the implant turned on.' Bionic eye implant inventor Dr. Mark Humayan told Hawaii News Now that he hopes the device will evolve to assist more patients. 'We have hundreds of millions of photo receptors in our eye, hundreds of millions, and with only 60 pixels patients who were completely blind can see large objects, can tell a table from a chair or a knife from a fork or a plate so it's very exciting to see what the brain is able to fill in,' Humayan said. Medical expert: 'She'll actually start to see motion, actually start to see somebody walk into the room and be able to see different shades of grey,' Dr. Kokame said .

Handrahan texted the images after his estranged wife ignored at least 100 text messages from him, some of which were threatening, according to authorities. 'I'm really sorry for what I've done,' Handrahan said in court on Tuesday. 'If I had been in the right mind, I wouldn't have done it.' Handrahan has already served 90 days in jail for the offense. Handrahan's case spurred Utah lawmakers to pass a new revenge porn bill that forbids the sharing of intimate images without the consent of the person pictured. A first offense is considered a misdemeanor, and repeat offenses are felonies. Handrahan was charged under old statutes - before the new law took effect. Handrahan texted numerous images with the tag line 'what do you think of your little angel now?' after his estranged wife ignored at least 100 text messages from him, according to authorities . Prosecutor Nathan Lyon wanted more jail time, saying he didn't see Handrahan 'accepting' much responsibility. 'This wasn't something he did all of a sudden,' Lyon said. 'This was something that had been building up all day long.' Defense attorney Edward Brass argued Handrahan accepted responsibility when he agreed to a plea deal with prosecutors last month. Handrahan pleaded guilty to distributing pornographic material and electronic communication harassment. The couple have since divorced. Handrahan's now ex-wife supported the deal and wanted to revolve the case quickly due to public attention her case was receiving, according to Lyon. Salt Lake City Democratic Representative Marie Poulson pushed for the revenge porn law, saying the practice most often targets women and can cause some to lose their jobs. ‘These things are used to harm the other individual, to ruin their life or destroy them personally with their jobs or their families,' she told the Salt Lake Tribune. Thirteen states, including Utah, have passed laws to punish revenge porn in the past two years, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.

London (CNN)British Prime Minister David Cameron formally asked Queen Elizabeth II to dissolve his country's Parliament on Monday, opening the way for campaigning ahead of the May 7 general election. The procedural step means there are officially no members of Parliament until it reconvenes on May 18 for the swearing-in of members and the official state opening of Parliament on May 27. Addressing media outside the official prime ministerial residence at 10 Downing St., Cameron said that Britain had been "on the brink" when he came into office. "Of course, we haven't fixed everything, but Britain is back on her feet again." Cameron said the nation faced "a stark choice" in 38 days. "The next Prime Minister walking through that door will be me or (Labour Party leader) Ed Miliband," he said. "You can choose an economy that grows, that creates jobs, that generates the money to ensure a properly funded and improving NHS (National Health Service) ... and a government that will cut taxes for 30 million hard-working people ... or you can choose the economic chaos of Ed Miliband's Britain," Cameron said. "After five years of effort and sacrifice, Britain is on the right track. This election is about moving forward -- and as Prime Minister here at No. 10 that's what I will deliver." Miliband launched Labour's Business Manifesto on Monday, saying that a second Conservative term would threaten Britain's EU membership and pose "a clear and present danger" to British firms and prosperity. "There are two futures on offer at this election," Miliband said. "To carry on with a Conservative plan based on the idea that as long as the richest and most powerful succeed, everyone else will be OK. Or a Labour plan, a better plan, that says it is only when working people succeed that Britain succeeds." Miliband also referenced Cameron's March 23 announcement that the Conservative leader had ruled out standing for a third term -- before the election that will decide whether he even gets a second term in the top job -- saying the Conservative candidates would be "vying against each other for who can be the most extreme on Europe." Cameron and his Conservative Party won the last election in 2010, but not by enough to go into government alone. Without a majority in Parliament, a government becomes dependent on MPs, or lawmakers, from other parties to get its program voted through the House of Commons, the chamber that passes laws and legislation. For five years, Cameron has been governing in coalition with the UK's third party, the Liberal Democrats. Nick Clegg, Liberal Democrat leader and deputy prime minister, has mostly backed Cameron in parliamentary debates against Labour's Miliband. "For the first time ever, the Liberal Democrats go into this campaign with a record of action in government to be extremely proud of," Clegg said Monday. "We have kept the government in the center ground and shown that we are the only party that can build a stronger economy and a fairer society." The right-wing UK Independence Party, or UKIP, which has pledged to take the UK out of the European Union, has made massive gains in the past year -- mostly at the expense of Cameron's Conservatives. Last year, in a backlash against the EU, UKIP caused a political earthquake and won elections to the European Parliament in Britain, and some commentators have likened its impact on UK politics to that of the tea party in the United States. It is unclear how UKIP will perform in the May 7 UK general election. Some of its supporters appeared to be casting protest votes last year and could return to the established Conservative and Labour parties when more is at stake. On Monday, UKIP leader Nigel Farage tweeted: "UKIP is the party of real change for real people. If you #VoteUKIP on May 7th, you'll get MPs willing to hold the government to account." Meanwhile, in Scotland, the September independence referendum (which narrowly failed) so reinvigorated the Scottish National Party that it could hit what is usually a key Labour stronghold, undermining Miliband's bid for power. Scottish National Party leader Alex Salmond quit after the referendum, and Nicola Sturgeon now heads the party. "The general election on May 7 is a fantastic opportunity for Scotland to make Westminster sit up and take notice," Sturgeon said Monday. "By holding the balance of power in a hung Parliament, SNP MPs can work with others to lock David Cameron out of Downing Street -- and ensure that Scotland's priorities become priorities at Westminster," she said. Eligible Britons must be registered by April 20 to vote.

Dozens of aging U.S. veterans, many in their early 90s and some in wheelchairs, gathered on the tiny, barren island of Iwo Jima on Saturday to mark the 70th anniversary of one of the bloodiest and most iconic battles of World War II. More than 30 veterans flown in from the U.S. island territory of Guam toured the black sand beaches where they invaded the deeply dug-in forces of the island's Japanese defenders in early 1945. They were bused to the top of Mount Suribachi, an active volcano, where an Associated Press photo of the raising of the American flag while the battle was still raging became a potent symbol of hope and valor to a war-weary public back home that was growing increasingly disillusioned with the seemingly unending battle in the Pacific.

Attack: The Fifth Division Marine invaders make their way up the beach of Iwo Jima in 1945 . For some of the veterans, the return to the island where many of their comrades died, and which is still inhabited only by a contingent of Japanese military troops, brought out difficult emotions. 'I hated them,' said former Sgt. John Roy Coltrane, 93, of Siler City, North Carolina. 'For 40 years, I wouldn't even buy anything made in Japan. But now I drive a Honda.' Speeches at the Reunion of Honor ceremony held near the invasion beach were made by senior Japanese politicians and descendants of the few Japanese who survived the battle. Family members of the soldiers who died in the Battle of Iwo Jima offer water on the cenotaph on Iwo Jima . Family members of the soldiers who died in the Battle of Iwo Jima walk around a battery on Iwo Jima . Also speaking were U.S. Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus and Gen. Joseph Dunford, the commandant of the Marine Corps, who noted that the battle for Iwo Jima remains the 'very ethos' of the Marine Corps today. 'We should never forget that the peace and prosperity of Japan and the United States at present has been built on the sacrifice of precious lives,' Japanese Defense Minister Gen Nakatani said in his remarks. This was the first time that Japanese Cabinet officials attended the anniversary ceremony, now in its 16th year. And while the presence of veterans able to make the grueling trip has been steadily dwindling, the number of participants — about 500 — was double that of last year because of the significance of the 70th year since Japan's surrender ended World War II. After the joint memorial, the U.S. and Japanese dignitaries and guests went their separate ways to visit the parts of the island that were of the most significance to their own troops. The Japanese have erected several memorials to their dead, and in a traditional way of placating their souls poured water and placed flowers on the memorial sites.

Veterans and relatives of the dead returned to the Japanese island of Iwo Jima Saturday, 70 years after one of the bloodiest battles of World War II, to commemorate the 29,000 lives claimed in the fighting . Brutal:The Battle of Iwojima lasted about a month after U.S. forces landed in February 1945. About 22,000 Japanese soldiers and 7,000 U.S. servicemen died in the battle. This photo was taken February 20 . The Marines invaded Iwo Jima in February 1945, and it was only declared secured after more than a month of fighting. About 70,000 U.S. troops fought more than 20,000 Japanese — only 216 Japanese were captured as POWs and the rest are believed to have been either killed in action or to have taken their own lives. The island was declared secure on March 16, 1945, but skirmishes continued. In about 36 days of battle, nearly 7,000 U.S. Marines were killed and 20,000 wounded.

It is to this day considered sacred ground to many Japanese. As a haunting reminder of the ferocity of the fighting, search teams continue to dig up more and more Japanese remains each year — it's estimated that 12,000 have yet to be found. The United States returned the island to Japan in 1968. Wreckage of military equipment can still be seen dotting some of the beach areas, along with pill boxes and extensive mazes of caves. Though the idea of developing the island for tourism has been mulled for decades, and possibly using its natural hot springs as an attraction, the island is virtually untouched other than the small airfield used by the Japanese. Though a tiny volcanic crag, the island — now called Ioto or Iwoto on Japanese maps — was deemed strategically important because it was being used by the Japanese to launch air attacks on American bombers. Iwo Jima, now known officially as Ioto, is seen from an airplane in Japan, Saturday, March 21, 2015. The U.S. and Japan held the ceremony Saturday to mark the 70th anniversary of one of World War II's bloodiest battles . After its capture, it was used by the U.S. as an emergency landing site for B-29s, which eventually made 2,900 emergency landings there that are estimated to have saved the lives of 24,000 airmen who would have otherwise had to crash at sea. Twenty-seven Medals of Honor were awarded for action in the battle, more than any other in U.S. military history. The only surviving Medal of Honor recipient from Iwo Jima, Hershel 'Woody' Williams, 91, attended the ceremony. Afterward, he said his feelings toward the Japanese had not changed in the decades since the battle. 'They were just doing their jobs, just like we were,' he said. 'We tried to kill them before they could kill us. But that's war.'

They were bused to the top of Mount Suribachi, an active volcano, where an Associated Press photo of the raising of the American flag while the battle was still raging became a potent symbol of hope and valor to a war-weary public back home that was growing increasingly disillusioned with the seemingly unending battle in the Pacific.

The Pacific island became the site of one of the bloodiest, most famous battles of World War II against Japan . Attack: The Fifth Division Marine invaders make their way up the beach of Iwo Jima in 1945 . For some of the veterans, the return to the island where many of their comrades died, and which is still inhabited only by a contingent of Japanese military troops, brought out difficult emotions. 'I hated them,' said former Sgt. John Roy Coltrane, 93, of Siler City, North Carolina. 'For 40 years, I wouldn't even buy anything made in Japan. But now I drive a Honda.' Speeches at the Reunion of Honor ceremony held near the invasion beach were made by senior Japanese politicians and descendants of the few Japanese who survived the battle. Family members of the soldiers who died in the Battle of Iwo Jima offer water on the cenotaph on Iwo Jima . Family members of the soldiers who died in the Battle of Iwo Jima walk around a battery on Iwo Jima . Also speaking were U.S. Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus and Gen. Joseph Dunford, the commandant of the Marine Corps, who noted that the battle for Iwo Jima remains the 'very ethos' of the Marine Corps today. 'We should never forget that the peace and prosperity of Japan and the United States at present has been built on the sacrifice of precious lives,' Japanese Defense Minister Gen Nakatani said in his remarks. This was the first time that Japanese Cabinet officials attended the anniversary ceremony, now in its 16th year. And while the presence of veterans able to make the grueling trip has been steadily dwindling, the number of participants — about 500 — was double that of last year because of the significance of the 70th year since Japan's surrender ended World War II. After the joint memorial, the U.S. and Japanese dignitaries and guests went their separate ways to visit the parts of the island that were of the most significance to their own troops. The Japanese have erected several memorials to their dead, and in a traditional way of placating their souls poured water and placed flowers on the memorial sites.

Veterans and relatives of the dead returned to the Japanese island of Iwo Jima Saturday, 70 years after one of the bloodiest battles of World War II, to commemorate the 29,000 lives claimed in the fighting . Brutal:The Battle of Iwojima lasted about a month after U.S. forces landed in February 1945. About 22,000 Japanese soldiers and 7,000 U.S. servicemen died in the battle. This photo was taken February 20 . The Marines invaded Iwo Jima in February 1945, and it was only declared secured after more than a month of fighting. About 70,000 U.S. troops fought more than 20,000 Japanese — only 216 Japanese were captured as POWs and the rest are believed to have been either killed in action or to have taken their own lives. The island was declared secure on March 16, 1945, but skirmishes continued. In about 36 days of battle, nearly 7,000 U.S. Marines were killed and 20,000 wounded.

It is to this day considered sacred ground to many Japanese. As a haunting reminder of the ferocity of the fighting, search teams continue to dig up more and more Japanese remains each year — it's estimated that 12,000 have yet to be found. The United States returned the island to Japan in 1968. Wreckage of military equipment can still be seen dotting some of the beach areas, along with pill boxes and extensive mazes of caves. Though the idea of developing the island for tourism has been mulled for decades, and possibly using its natural hot springs as an attraction, the island is virtually untouched other than the small airfield used by the Japanese. Though a tiny volcanic crag, the island — now called Ioto or Iwoto on Japanese maps — was deemed strategically important because it was being used by the Japanese to launch air attacks on American bombers. Iwo Jima, now known officially as Ioto, is seen from an airplane in Japan, Saturday, March 21, 2015. The U.S. and Japan held the ceremony Saturday to mark the 70th anniversary of one of World War II's bloodiest battles . After its capture, it was used by the U.S. as an emergency landing site for B-29s, which eventually made 2,900 emergency landings there that are estimated to have saved the lives of 24,000 airmen who would have otherwise had to crash at sea. Twenty-seven Medals of Honor were awarded for action in the battle, more than any other in U.S. military history. The only surviving Medal of Honor recipient from Iwo Jima, Hershel 'Woody' Williams, 91, attended the ceremony. Afterward, he said his feelings toward the Japanese had not changed in the decades since the battle. 'They were just doing their jobs, just like we were,' he said. 'We tried to kill them before they could kill us. But that's war.' [/INST] More than 30 veterans flew to the island of Iwo Jima, Japan, on Saturday .

(CNN)They're some of the toughest athletes on the planet, saying goodbye to loved ones for almost a year, as they traverse the globe's oceans. Hardened Volvo Ocean Race sailors must sleep in four-hour shifts, and survive on little more than freeze dried food and chocolate bars, if they hope to win the event. The prestigious competition kicked off from Alicante, Spain, in October last year, and will finish nine months later in Gothenberg, Sweden. Abu Dhabi Ocean Racing skipper Ian Walker, spoke about the journey so far. This is the 45-year-old Briton's third Volvo Ocean Race. "As the leading offshore race -- and the one that is most vulnerable to nature and synonymous with danger -- it could be described as the 'Everest of sailing.'" "We trained for six months, covering 16,000 sea miles. As a team, we usually do three weeks on the boat, one week off. When not offshore, we train six-days-a-week in the gym." "Everybody has four hours on deck, followed by four hours off when you eat and sleep. On the off-watch, you still have to get on deck and help for any sail changes, so it is quite disturbed." "Mainly freeze dried food with some savory and sweet treats like beef jerky, dried fruits, one chocolate bar per day, and nuts." "I'm the skipper, so overall in charge of safety and performance. I'm involved with all strategic decisions with my navigator, Simon Fisher, and I run one of the watches when on deck. Onshore, I'm also busy with media duties and management of our 15 shore team members." "It can be an emotional roller coaster and it can be tough not to take things personally if they don't go well. At sea, emotions can range from frustration, boredom, elation, being scared, loneliness... it is important to try to keep a level head at all times -- especially if you are the skipper!" "I have great respect for the ocean. It will always win in the end so you must respect it. I am also saddened by all the man-made debris we see in the ocean as we sail round the world." "A professional sailor with a fierce determination to win. Someone who is prepared to put the needs of the team above his own, and who is prepared to commit over 12 months of his life to being away from normal life."

Compare and contrast these two manager quotes about Danny Welbeck from this season. The uncompromising Louis van Gaal, asked in November whether he still thought it was a good idea to sell the in-form Welbeck to Arsenal on deadline day, said: 'I don't have to prove that [I was right]. 'Why do I have to prove that? I have already said what I think - he was not a line-up player, he was more a substitute than a line-up player. Danny Welbeck trains ahead of his return to Manchester United with Arsenal in the FA Cup sixth round . The England striker has been reduced to a bit-part role in recent weeks, spending time on the bench . Louis van Gaal wrote Welbeck off as not good enough for the Manchester United first team . 'He was already, with different coaches, not a line-up player, but then with Mr Van Gaal, the world is changing? No the world is not changing. They are the facts. They are not my facts, they are the facts of Danny Welbeck.' And Arsene Wenger, speaking on the impact of Welbeck just the other day: 'He's very important and has played many, many games since the start of the season. 'I think he's played in nearly every single game. His position is one of the three up front, central, left or right. He can play anywhere.' So Welbeck has apparently gone from a condemned man at Manchester United, destined to rot away on the bench, to a versatile and indispensable part of Arsenal's team. But, as the England striker returns to Old Trafford for the first time for Monday night's crunch FA Cup sixth-round tie, has he actually fared that well at the Emirates? Welbeck celebrates a goal for Manchester United against West Ham under David Moyes last season . Welbeck was given a chance to impress on United's pre-season tour of the United States . Well, at the time of Van Gaal's outburst, just ahead of United's away match with Arsenal on November 22, he had every reason to be tetchy. While United had endured their worst start to a season in living memory, Welbeck had made light of his £16m transfer fee. Given regular football by Wenger at the head of Arsenal's attack, he looked revitalised, a player brimming with confidence who looked on course to score 20 goals this season for his new team. Just days after his move, Welbeck scored two for England in their 2-0 European qualifying win in Switzerland, before he opened his Gunners account in a 3-0 win at Aston Villa. The highlight was a hat-trick in Arsenal's 4-1 Champions League win over Galatasaray, a performance praised by Wenger as 'electric'. Arsene Wenger was thrilled with Welbeck's early performances in an Arsenal shirt . Welbeck's best performance in an Arsenal shirt was a hat-trick against Galatasaray in the Champions League . Welbeck pictured here completing his treble against the Turkish side at the Emirates back in October .

ARSENAL . 2014-15 . 20 appearances, 7 goals . At that point, it was all looking very awkward for Van Gaal. Events since then have made him feel a little better, if not entirely vindicated. Welbeck has scored just three more goals for Arsenal since the Galatasaray match. There have been mitigating circumstances though. Welbeck suffered a thigh injury and missed the whole of January, his absence coinciding with a return to form for Olivier Giroud. By the time Welbeck had rediscovered his fitness, Wenger found it very difficult to take the Frenchman out of the forward position. So Welbeck's versatility has become something of a curse. When he plays, he is stuck out on the wing, a position he is less effective in. When he left for north London, he said: 'I prefer to play through the middle. Once I get into the box and am getting the chances, I have got faith in my ability.' And, at this pivotal stage of the season, his game time has dried up as well. Arsenal are prospering without him. Welbeck's £16m move to Arsenal led to a resurgence in form for England too . Welbeck's last goal for the Gunners came in the win over West Ham just after Christmas . Welbeck was left on the bench during the win over Leicester and he was brought on for mere cameos in the wins over Everton and Queens Park Rangers. So the 24-year-old returns to Old Trafford with plenty to prove. He believed Arsenal was a club that would advance his career but evidence of this has so far been in short supply. However, earning Champions League qualification and winning the FA Cup for Arsenal - the two things Van Gaal craves so dearly this season - would certainly make him feel better.

After a lifetime of working hard, pensioners deserve to raise a toast to retirement. And these days they’re doing just that – enjoying a daily tipple at 6.30pm. Some prefer to crack open a bottle a little earlier, around 4pm, but others can’t even wait that long... and say cheers with their first glass at lunchtime. Researchers found the majority of pensioners are making the most of their later years with a packed diary of social engagements, days out, short breaks, holidays and shopping, as well as time spent outside (file image) With such a relaxed start to the day, it’s no wonder that a poll of retirees aged 60 and over found 94 per cent are enjoying their post-work life, while half said they are having more fun than ever before.

<s>[INST] After a lifetime of working hard, pensioners deserve to raise a toast to retirement. And these days they’re doing just that – enjoying a daily tipple at 6.30pm. Some prefer to crack open a bottle a little earlier, around 4pm, but others can’t even wait that long... and say cheers with their first glass at lunchtime. Researchers found the majority of pensioners are making the most of their later years with a packed diary of social engagements, days out, short breaks, holidays and shopping, as well as time spent outside (file image) With such a relaxed start to the day, it’s no wonder that a poll of retirees aged 60 and over found 94 per cent are enjoying their post-work life, while half said they are having more fun than ever before.

Heather Watson scored the best win of her career on Sunday night when she defeated world No 8 Agnieskza Radwanska to make the last sixteen of the BNP Paribas Open at Indian Wells. On the day that Laura Robson was again forced to postpone her comeback, Watson defeated a top ten player for the first time by overcoming the former Wimbledon finalist 6-4, 6-4 in 93 minutes. Watson, benefiting from her groundstrokes and serve being boosted by the dry air and altitude in the Californian desert, played with the confidence derived from already having beaten two formidable opponents, Germany’s Julia Goerges and Italy’s Camila Giorgi. British No 1 Heather Watson celebrates after completing her impressive 6-4 , 6-4 victory on Sunday . Against the crafty Pole, who reached the final last year and had beaten her easily in her three previous meetings, she struck out bravely and was helped by hitting seven aces, often at crucial times. Radwanska seemed to have got back into it when she recovered to 3-2 in the second set, but Watson stopped her revival and held her nerve after breaking for 5-4 at the end . She was awaiting the winner of Carla Suarez Navarro and Russia’s Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova.

When Adam Scott waved a short putter to magical effect during the first round of the WGC-Cadillac Championship at Doral on Thursday, he effectively consigned to history one of the most contentious subjects the game has known. Nine months ahead of the official death knell for long putters, the great and good have seemingly imposed their own sanction. The banishment was started by Ernie Els and Webb Simpson, who snapped his over his knee to ensure he would not be tempted any more. Then came Keegan Bradley, leaving Scott as the last man standing in terms of players who won majors using a long putter. Australian Adam Scott putts for birdie on the eighth green during the WGC-Cadillac Championship . Scott watches his tee shot on the 14th hole in the second round of the WGC-Cadillac Championship . It was this group who forced the hands of the governing bodies when they claimed all four majors between them in the space of just 18 months, from Bradley's PGA Championship triumph in 2011 through to Scott's Masters victory in 2013. The authorities were persuaded by the powerful evidence that less nerve was needed in anchoring a long putter to the body and the plain inequity that such a crutch could prove decisive at a major. Hence the ban on anchoring which, by extension, meant the end for long putters. Scott was the most high-profile since his long putter was the ugliest contraption of all. As long as he kept turning up with it in his bag, the subject rumbled on. It was during a three-month break that the genial Australian decided it was time to change. His caddie Steve Williams had announced his retirement while Scott's wife had given birth to their first child, Bo. 'Everything was getting a little boring so I thought why not change everything completely and ditch the putter as well,' said Scott (right), wryly. At home he experimented with a range of 50 different putters. He tried various grips and methods. By the time he arrived in Miami, Scott was confident enough to announce he was going back to the short putter he last wielded in competition in 2011. Scott plays his second shot on the 10th hole in the second round of the WGC-Cadillac Championship . The Australian chips the ball out of the bunker and onto the 11th green at the WGC-Cadillac Championship . The 34-year-old admitted to some first-hole nerves and genuine concern as to how it would hold up over long putts. As things turned out, it went better than he could have imagined. Using the 'claw' grip favoured by Sergio Garcia, the putting stroke looked pure and he had just 27 putts in an opening round of 70. 'I'm really pleased,' Scott said afterwards. 'I've tried not to clutter my mind and I've shown myself it is not that big a deal. It helps that I used a short putter for years, so the adjustment was really to do with muscle memory.' One or two middle-ranking players such as the Swede Carl Pettersson and South African Tim Clark still use long putters. But even here they will surely take encouragement from the example of those at the top. As for Scott, did he ever feel like following Simpson's example and snapping his putter in two? 'It treated me pretty well, so I don't think it deserves a snapping,' he said, smiling. Scott's two-under-par round left him in the top 10 but still eight strokes behind runaway leader JB Holmes, who carded a 62. 'That's the most unbelievable round I have ever seen,' said Ian Poulter, who opened with a 74 — one worse than world No 1 Rory McIlroy. For Holmes, it was another heartening milestone in his remarkable recovery from brain surgery three years ago.

Dog owners have been warned that their animals could be at risk from a popular brand of pet food which is at the centre of a multi-million-pound lawsuit. Purina Beneful is accused of making dogs violently ill, causing seizures, kidney failure, sudden weight loss and even death. Distraught pet owners across North America are now suing Nestle, the brand’s owner, for $5million (£3.3million) over the allegedly unsafe dry dog food - which can also be bought in the UK. Scroll down for videos . Companion: Loss: Jean-Francois Menicucci from Montreal told MailOnline his 240lb mastiff Rex ate Purina Beneful after a family member brought it back from the store one day. He believes it led to his beloved dog's premature death . Terrifying ordeal: Rex devoured the product in August 2013 and then suddenly started having a seizure . The company strongly denies the allegations, calling the lawsuit ‘baseless’, although thousands of dog owners have complained about the effect of the food on their pets. They claim the dry food product contains toxic chemicals including propylene glycol, which can be used as an anti-freeze, and mycotoxin. All of the customers involved in the class-action lawsuit, which was filed last month in California, are from the US or Canada. However, Beneful is also available in Britain - four varieties of the brand’s dry food are listed for sale on Amazon.co.uk, and it can also be bought from other leading pet food retailers online. Pet owners who are worried about their animals becoming ill as a result of their diet should consult a vet in order to determine whether there is any risk. Seizure: Mr Menicucci describes how Rex was fitting for hours and couldn't even move him to get him to the vet. Before they could get him help he was gone . Heartbreaking: Mr Menicucci said Rex just stopped breathing and keeled over in front of him . A number of dog owners in the US and Canada who believe their animals have suffered as a result of Purina Beneful have shared their experiences with MailOnline. Jean-Francois Menicucci, from Montreal in Canada, said his 240lb mastiff Rex ate Beneful after a family member brought it back from the store in April 2013. ‘My other dog, Tally, refused to eat it,’ he said. ‘But Rex devoured it.’ He described how 40 minutes later Rex, who was three years old at the time, went into a seizure for hours without stopping. He could not move him to take him to the vet. ‘Suddenly he died in front of my eyes. He stopped breathing and he was gone.’ He filed a complaint to the authorities, suggesting his dog’s death was caused by Beneful. Officials then came and collected samples of the food. Purina subsequently sent him an apology and 24 Canadian Dollars (£13). ‘At the time, my mother came out from a seven-month coma in the ICU,’ he added. ‘She woke up with her two legs partially paralyzed, she was working very hard to regain mobility, because her dream was to walk Rex again. Imagine when I told her he had died. I just want justice for Rex.’ Concern: Mike Garnett-Zero posted a horrifying video of friend Cassandra Angelique comforting a dog who they said had been given Purina Beneful . During their youth: Ms Angelique holds her two beloved dogs as puppies . Horrifying: Michael Dowling described how his niece's English Bulldog called Pippa (pictured) had to be 'put to sleep' after suffering from kidney failure. Their vet said it was down to the dog being fed Purina Beneful . Propylene glycol is regularly used as a flavouring ingredient in drinks and food as E-1520. It is found in pharmaceutical and cosmetic products, but regulations of its use differ between the US and the EU. In October, for example, Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey was pulled from the shelves across Europe because it contained the substance, as it was in breach of European regulations. However it remained on the shelves in the US. In the US, the chemical is 'generally recognised as safe' by the Food and Drug Administration, and Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey claims up to 50 grams per kilogram can be used, though it states it uses far less in its drink. Popylene glycol is also found in automotive and aircraft anti-freeze, for its ability to lower the freezing point of water. The substance is also released alongside nicotine when smoking e-cigarettes. Denial: The company say the lawsuit is 'baseless' Another dog owner, Mike Garnett-Zero, uploaded a horrifying video of friend Cassandra Angelique comforting their dog Melody, who they said had just eaten Purina Beneful. It shows the animal lying on the floor of its cage unable to get up. Underneath the video posted on Facebook, he wrote: ‘Beneful’s line of pet food and treats has poisoned our beautiful pets for the last time. Please boycott this brand and never feed it to your loved ones.’ They also posted another showing Melody barely able to stand and losing balance as she walks, so Mr Garnett-Zero has to hold her on his lap. In February, Michael Dowling told his followers on GooglePlus what had happened to his niece’s English Bulldog called Pippa. Next to a picture of the pet wearing a pink top hat, he described how his niece had to ‘put their dog to sleep’ due to kidney failure. Dowling says that the dog’s deteriorating health may have been prompted by eating the product. Cheryl Harmon wrote on Facebook how her Chihuahua, called Darcie, died at the age of six as a result of what she believes was poisoning from the product. Julie Hyde, 39, of Sandwich, Illinois, said her six-year-old pitbull called Bossy was as ‘healthy as a horse’ before she started eating the food. However she believes it was extremely detrimental to her health thereafter. ‘You could see her spine and ribs’, she said. ‘For her to lose that much weight dramatically there was something definitely wrong.’ After taking her to a vet, the animal was diagnosed with diabetes because her sugar levels were ‘sky-high’. Despite treatment, Bossy’s health continued to deteriorate and she had to be put down last December. The company has vehemently denied the allegations and insists customers should continue buying the product. A spokesman for Nestlé Purina PetCare said: ‘We are aware that a class action lawsuit was recently filed against Beneful in the United States. ‘We believe this lawsuit to be baseless and intend to vigorously defend our high quality, nutritious food which is backed by Purina’s strict quality controls and comprehensive food safety programme. Purina dog foods are enjoyed by millions of dogs every day and pet owners can continue to feed them with total confidence.’ Another alleged vicitim: Morgan Malone, 19, of North Carolina, told NBC News her dachshund called Doc got 'super sick' and died within the space of a week after eating the product . Memory: She posted pictures of her beloved dog on Facebook with friends offering her messages of support . Pet owner Frank Lucido filed the lawsuit on February 5 in US District Court in the Northern District of California against Nestle Purina PetCare Company. Lucido claims he fed his three dogs Beneful ‘kibble’ style dog food, and within a short period of time, two were sick and one was dead. The suit alleges the food contains propylene glycol, which it says is an animal toxin used in automobile antifreeze, and mycotoxins, a group of toxins produced by fungus that occurs in grains. In the suit, Mr Lucido alleges that in the past four years, there have been more than 3,000 complaints online about dogs becoming ill or dying after eating Beneful, having shown ‘consistent symptoms,’ including stomach and related internal bleeding, liver malfunction or failure, vomiting, diarrhea, have not yet been released. The suit asks the court to expand the case to include other dog owners whose dogs were sickened or died. It asks for unspecified damages and restitution, although it says the claims exceed $5million. In recent years, Beneful has faced two lawsuits that were dismissed by the courts, according to Purina’s statement. However, in a lawsuit settled in May, Purina and Waggin’ Train LLC agreed to create a $6.5 million fund to compensate pet owners who claimed their pets were sickened after eating China-made jerky treats. At the time, US officials said the pet treats were linked to more than 1,000 deaths in dogs and more than 4,800 complaints of animal illness. Passed away: Darcie, owned by Cheryl Harmon, is also died after eating the food. Vets allegedly told the owner Purina Beneful was the cause .

<s>[INST] Dog owners have been warned that their animals could be at risk from a popular brand of pet food which is at the centre of a multi-million-pound lawsuit. Purina Beneful is accused of making dogs violently ill, causing seizures, kidney failure, sudden weight loss and even death. Distraught pet owners across North America are now suing Nestle, the brand’s owner, for $5million (£3.3million) over the allegedly unsafe dry dog food - which can also be bought in the UK. Scroll down for videos . Companion: Loss: Jean-Francois Menicucci from Montreal told MailOnline his 240lb mastiff Rex ate Purina Beneful after a family member brought it back from the store one day. He believes it led to his beloved dog's premature death . Terrifying ordeal: Rex devoured the product in August 2013 and then suddenly started having a seizure . The company strongly denies the allegations, calling the lawsuit ‘baseless’, although thousands of dog owners have complained about the effect of the food on their pets. They claim the dry food product contains toxic chemicals including propylene glycol, which can be used as an anti-freeze, and mycotoxin. All of the customers involved in the class-action lawsuit, which was filed last month in California, are from the US or Canada. However, Beneful is also available in Britain - four varieties of the brand’s dry food are listed for sale on Amazon.co.uk, and it can also be bought from other leading pet food retailers online. Pet owners who are worried about their animals becoming ill as a result of their diet should consult a vet in order to determine whether there is any risk. Seizure: Mr Menicucci describes how Rex was fitting for hours and couldn't even move him to get him to the vet. Before they could get him help he was gone . Heartbreaking: Mr Menicucci said Rex just stopped breathing and keeled over in front of him . A number of dog owners in the US and Canada who believe their animals have suffered as a result of Purina Beneful have shared their experiences with MailOnline. Jean-Francois Menicucci, from Montreal in Canada, said his 240lb mastiff Rex ate Beneful after a family member brought it back from the store in April 2013. ‘My other dog, Tally, refused to eat it,’ he said. ‘But Rex devoured it.’ He described how 40 minutes later Rex, who was three years old at the time, went into a seizure for hours without stopping. He could not move him to take him to the vet. ‘Suddenly he died in front of my eyes. He stopped breathing and he was gone.’ He filed a complaint to the authorities, suggesting his dog’s death was caused by Beneful. Officials then came and collected samples of the food. Purina subsequently sent him an apology and 24 Canadian Dollars (£13). ‘At the time, my mother came out from a seven-month coma in the ICU,’ he added. ‘She woke up with her two legs partially paralyzed, she was working very hard to regain mobility, because her dream was to walk Rex again. Imagine when I told her he had died. I just want justice for Rex.’ Concern: Mike Garnett-Zero posted a horrifying video of friend Cassandra Angelique comforting a dog who they said had been given Purina Beneful . During their youth: Ms Angelique holds her two beloved dogs as puppies . Horrifying: Michael Dowling described how his niece's English Bulldog called Pippa (pictured) had to be 'put to sleep' after suffering from kidney failure. Their vet said it was down to the dog being fed Purina Beneful . Propylene glycol is regularly used as a flavouring ingredient in drinks and food as E-1520. It is found in pharmaceutical and cosmetic products, but regulations of its use differ between the US and the EU. In October, for example, Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey was pulled from the shelves across Europe because it contained the substance, as it was in breach of European regulations. However it remained on the shelves in the US. In the US, the chemical is 'generally recognised as safe' by the Food and Drug Administration, and Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey claims up to 50 grams per kilogram can be used, though it states it uses far less in its drink. Popylene glycol is also found in automotive and aircraft anti-freeze, for its ability to lower the freezing point of water. The substance is also released alongside nicotine when smoking e-cigarettes. Denial: The company say the lawsuit is 'baseless' Another dog owner, Mike Garnett-Zero, uploaded a horrifying video of friend Cassandra Angelique comforting their dog Melody, who they said had just eaten Purina Beneful. It shows the animal lying on the floor of its cage unable to get up. Underneath the video posted on Facebook, he wrote: ‘Beneful’s line of pet food and treats has poisoned our beautiful pets for the last time. Please boycott this brand and never feed it to your loved ones.’ They also posted another showing Melody barely able to stand and losing balance as she walks, so Mr Garnett-Zero has to hold her on his lap. In February, Michael Dowling told his followers on GooglePlus what had happened to his niece’s English Bulldog called Pippa. Next to a picture of the pet wearing a pink top hat, he described how his niece had to ‘put their dog to sleep’ due to kidney failure. Dowling says that the dog’s deteriorating health may have been prompted by eating the product. Cheryl Harmon wrote on Facebook how her Chihuahua, called Darcie, died at the age of six as a result of what she believes was poisoning from the product. Julie Hyde, 39, of Sandwich, Illinois, said her six-year-old pitbull called Bossy was as ‘healthy as a horse’ before she started eating the food. However she believes it was extremely detrimental to her health thereafter. ‘You could see her spine and ribs’, she said. ‘For her to lose that much weight dramatically there was something definitely wrong.’ After taking her to a vet, the animal was diagnosed with diabetes because her sugar levels were ‘sky-high’. Despite treatment, Bossy’s health continued to deteriorate and she had to be put down last December. The company has vehemently denied the allegations and insists customers should continue buying the product. A spokesman for Nestlé Purina PetCare said: ‘We are aware that a class action lawsuit was recently filed against Beneful in the United States. ‘We believe this lawsuit to be baseless and intend to vigorously defend our high quality, nutritious food which is backed by Purina’s strict quality controls and comprehensive food safety programme. Purina dog foods are enjoyed by millions of dogs every day and pet owners can continue to feed them with total confidence.’ Another alleged vicitim: Morgan Malone, 19, of North Carolina, told NBC News her dachshund called Doc got 'super sick' and died within the space of a week after eating the product . Memory: She posted pictures of her beloved dog on Facebook with friends offering her messages of support . Pet owner Frank Lucido filed the lawsuit on February 5 in US District Court in the Northern District of California against Nestle Purina PetCare Company. Lucido claims he fed his three dogs Beneful ‘kibble’ style dog food, and within a short period of time, two were sick and one was dead. The suit alleges the food contains propylene glycol, which it says is an animal toxin used in automobile antifreeze, and mycotoxins, a group of toxins produced by fungus that occurs in grains.

Forensic tests on the body of Argentine state prosecutor Alberto Nisman who accused the President of a cover-up with Iran indicate that he was murdered, his ex-wife said today. He was found shot dead in the bathroom of his locked apartment in January, hours before he was due to testify against President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner in the Argentinian Congress. He was trying to arrest the President after claiming she helped cover up Iran's alleged role in a 1994 bombing which killed 85 at a Jewish community centre in Buenos Aires. The mysterious circumstances surrounding Mr Nisman's death unleashed a storm of conspiracy theories. His ex-wife, Sandra Arroyo Salgado, hired a private team to analyse the autopsy results and run additional tests. On the offensive: Argentinian President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner (left) has denied claims helped Iran cover up a terrorist attack. The claims were made by Alberto Nisman (right) - who was mysteriously shot dead . Argentine authorities have not released full results of his autopsy, more than six weeks after he was found sprawled in a pool of blood in his flat. The few details made public so far have suggested suicide, although the lead investigator into Mr Nisman's death said she could not categorically say if he shot himself in the head or was killed. But today, his ex-wife - the mother of their two children - said: 'Nisman didn't have an accident. He didn't commit suicide. They murdered him.' Earlier today, Ms Arroyo Salgado, who is a judge, deposited the forensic evidence backing up her allegations at the state prosecutors' office in Buenos Aires. She did not give details of the findings to journalists. Yesterday, a full-page advert, signed by the Government of Argentina and bearing an Argentinian flag, questioned Mr Nisman's motives and attacked his argument. 'One must ask oneself what objectives Nisman was pursuing with a complaint plagued with contradictions, lacking logic and without legal basis,' it declared. Mrs Kirchner: The president's name was on a draft warrant discovered in the home of Alberto Nisman . 'Can one think of a hypothesis other than seeking to generate a destabilising political effect?' Mr Nisman had accused the President and top administration officials of helping Iranian officials hide their and Iran's alleged role in the country's worst-ever terrorist attack. His 289-page investigation, which was published a few days after his death, was based on wiretaps of top administration officials that he argued proved the secret deal with Iran. According to Mr Nisman, the President allegedly orchestrated the deal in exchange for economic trade. Ms Kirchner rejected the allegations, and Iran denied any role in the bombing. The prosecutor was found shot in the head in his apartment in the capital's upmarket Puerto Madero district on January 18, triggering protests in the streets. His mysterious death triggered a PR fightback by the government, whose officials said the prosecutor was trying to smear the nation. Senior government official Gustavo Lopez claimed last month the allegations were part of an attempt to unseat the President and bring neoliberals back to power. 'We are facing an attempted coup d'etat, that aims to get rid of the president,' he wrote. But the alleged smears have upset other politicians. Cornelia Schmidt-Liermann told the Associated Press: 'It's awful to see so many accusations against a person who can't defend himself. 'Instead of clarifying anything, Fernandez is damaging the investigation into Nisman's death.' Anger: Protesters clashed with police after the death of the prosecutor in his locked apartment in January . Horror: The 1994 bombing of a Buenes Aires Jewish centre, run by the Argentine Israelite Mutual Association, left 85 dead and remains the country's most deadly terrorist attack. Iran has denied it was involved . Yesterday's newspaper advert highlighted a judge's ruling which said Mr Nisman's argument had a lack of 'coherence and integration'. Judge Daniel Rafecas, who made the ruling, said: 'There is not a single element of evidence, even circumstantial, that points to the head of state.' That ruling was appealed yesterday by prosecutor Gerardo Pollicita, who has taken up the case following Mr Nisman's death. He said the judges' decision was 'premature' and an investigation was needed to 'prove or disprove the facts'. The appeal sends the case to the Federal Chamber of judges, which can uphold or reject last week's decision by federal Judge Rafecas. Argentinians will go to the polls in October, but the President is barred from running for a third term by the country's constitution and will have to step down. She has nevertheless gone on the offensive, accusing opposition parties of using the row for political gain and claiming the U.S. and Israel were meddling in Argentina's affairs.

A grieving woman who overate following her mother's death told of how after dropping FIVE dress sizes in just one year her breasts shrunk from a 38E to a 34B – so she used her mother's inheritance to get implants. Emma Thair-White, 43, was prompted to lose weight after she gorged so much that whole pieces of food rose back up into her throat when she bent over to tie her shoelaces. The mother-of-two, who said she over-ate while grieving following her mother's death, was hugely successful and went from a 15-stone, size 22 to a ten-stone, size 12. Emma Thair-White piled on the pounds after the tragic loss of her mother, however, the 43-year-old has now dropped five dress sizes and had a boob job to lift and enlarge her sagging chest . Emma was left devastated after the death of her mother, Ethel (right) and turned to drink and food for comfort . But her breasts also took the hit – and shrunk from a 38E to a 34B. 'I didn't want to look in the mirror – I didn't like what it the weight loss had left,' she said, adding she was disgusted with her 'saggy' breasts. 'Every bra I put on, the skin just sat in there. I'd never lost my boobs throughout any diet, so it was a shock.' In 2014, she decided to use part of her mum's inheritance to get a breast uplift and 34F implants. Mrs Thair-White, from Grays, Essex, said: 'I wasn't sure about spending part of the inheritance on the operation but my husband Shane encouraged me,' she said. 'He said: 'You've always put the kids first, now it's time for you.' Mrs Thair-White told how she struggled to shift the pounds she had gained while pregnant with her children Eva, 16 and Max, 10, but her binge eating spiraled out of control after she lost her beloved mother Ethel to brain cancer in 2009. Emma, pictured here with her two children Eva (left) and Max (right) decided to lose the weight in 2013 after she became so big that she couldn't tie her shoelaces without food coming up into her mouth . Emma proudly shows off her weight loss holding up an old pair of her jeans, she was previously a size 22 but has now slimmed down to a size 12 . Emma is now a keen exerciser and a slim size 12, after realising in 2013 that she needed to do something about her weight . She was so devastated by the loss that she secretly turned to drink to ease the pain. 'It started off that I had a bottle of wine to toast [my mum], and things seemed a little bit rosier and it wasn't so painful,' she said. 'That one glass in the evening turned to two, then three, then four and then before I knew it I'd be ordering three bottles of wine in the shopping then, unbeknown to my husband, going and buying another three. 'I used to make sure if there was a lot of bottles in the recycling bin I'd put the rubbish straight in after. He didn't have a clue.' In 2010, she broke down and confessed all to her GP, who prescribed her a course of anti-depressants. 'One day I just woke up and decided I wasn't going to do it anymore and I needed help,' she said. She cut out drinking straight away. Emma was suffering from depression when she decided to give up drinking, however, she then turned to take-aways eating them two or three times a week . Emma is now happy to show off her slimmer figure in a variety of outfits, including this fancy dress costime . However, Mrs Thair-White was still battling with her weight – a fight she believes was made harder by her anti-depressants. 'The takeaways went from weekends to two or three times a week,' she said. It wasn't a few scoops of Ben and Jerry's, I'd have the tub. 'With my appetite, there is no off button. It is all down to my self control.' Classmates at son her Max's school even made cruel comments about him having a 'fat mum.' The final push she needed to kick-start her weight loss came in December 2013. She had been stocking the house with sweets and chocolate in the run-up to Christmas, but could not resist binging on the treats. 'I stacked up my cupboards and I used to sit and eat every night until I felt sick,' she said, 'We were going somewhere and I bent down to tie my shoes then all my food came back into my mouth because my tummy was so big. 'I just remember saying to my husband: 'I can't do this anymore.' Emma used some of the inheritance money left by her mother to pay for a boob job after her chest was left sagging following her weight loss regime . Emma's two children and husband encouraged her in her weight loss, they joined their mother on her healthy eating regime, promising her they would lose weight as a family . Her 42-year-old husband and two children also joined in with her new healthy regime, promising they would lose weight as a family. Mrs Thair-White threw herself into exercise, taking the family's dog Morris with her on speed walks. Progress was slow at first. When she had only managed to shed a stone after several months, she turned to Forza Raspberry K2 diet supplements. 'At the beginning when I wasn't on [the supplements], it was very slow,' she said, 'But after I started, it came off in leaps and bounds. 'The shape change spurred me on. I had a waist – it was a good feeling. The biggest thing is excuses. 'I've had so many people approach me and say they want to do it but there's all these 'buts', and I'll say to them that they're not ready. 'You've got to be in the frame of mind to do it. I've proved that you don't have to run – I speed walk. 'Even just walking helps, it's just making yourself active. I just want people to know there is always light at the end of any tunnel no matter how big or small, and looking after yourself really does make all the difference. Don't give up. It can be done.' Emma proudly shows off her slim size 12 frame in a pair of skinny jeans and high heels .

Police say Jason Brown, whose license has been suspended 41 times, gave a fake name after being pulled over in Yaphank, New York, on Saturday after an officer noticed his minivan driving erratically . A man who has had his license suspended 41 times was nabbed again over the weekend in New York. A Suffolk County police officer pulled Jason Brown over on Saturday afternoon in Yaphank after noticing the suspect's minivan was being driven erratically. Police say even though Brown gave a fake name to Highway Patrol Officer Matthew DeWitt, the officer determined the suspect's New York State driver’s license had been suspended 41 times. Officer DeWitt also 'observed marijuana in plain view within the van'. At that point, Brown, 36, was taken to the 5th Precinct in Patchogue for processing. During processing, Officer DeWitt 'discovered Brown had hidden on his person quantities of heroin and cocaine'. Brown, of Mastic Beach, was charged with aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle, criminal impersonation, unlawful possession of marijuana and two counts of criminal possession of a controlled substance. He was also given a traffic summons for failure to maintain or stay within a lane of travel and his van was impounded. After being held at the precinct overnight, Brown was arraigned at First District Court in Central Islip.

We’ve known for centuries that man’s best friend is the dog - right? Not necessarily, according to a latest YouGov study, which found that lobsters were the preferred animals for men - when compared to the choices by women - followed by alligators, sticklebacks, sharks and eagles. For women, meanwhile, the results were a bit more timid - with miniature pigs, cats, ponies, donkeys and chinchillas making up the top five. Man's new best friend? Dogs may have once ruled the roost, but now according to a YouGov survey of people in the UK, men prefer lobsters as their favourite animal - when compared to female choices - which may be because they associate them with fine dining (picture of red reef lobster shown) The study involved a poll of 190,000 YouGov members in the UK, which the company says is ‘perhaps the largest dataset ever collected of people’s passions and phobias in the animal world’. Overall, when gender is not taken into account, the nation’s favourite animals are dogs, tigers, elephants, cats and dolphins. The least favoured are eels, millipedes and spiders. When male choices were compared to female choices, however, there was a surprising battle of the sexes on what the most popular animals were. The data showed that lobsters were the most popular animal among men when compared to those less liked by women, followed by alligators, sticklebacks and so on. For women, compared to men, it was miniature pigs at the top of the list, followed by cats and ponies. As for the most popular animals, the study found that things like dogs and snails were slightly more popular among women than men. Men were more likely to prefer 'heroic', 'aggressive' or 'creepy' animals, while women preferred 'cute', 'beautiful' and 'exotic' species. In the episode of The Simpsons titled Lisa Gets an 'A' (seventh episode of season 10), Homer Simpsons gets a pet lobster that he names Pinchy, and unfortunately ends up cooking him towards the end of the episode. While his actions seemed bizarre, did Homer actually predict that the animal was favoured by men? For women, when their choices were compared to men, their favourite animals were miniature pigs (shown), followed by cats, ponies, donkeys and chinchillas . ‘Animals with violent defensive abilities - sharks, eagles and piranhas - are particularly favoured by men,’ noted Will Dahlgreen in an article for YouGov. ‘The only mammal in the top 20 most uniquely male animals is the Narwhal, while every animal in the corresponding female list apart from the penguin and butterfly is mammal.’ Speaking to MailOnline, Mr Dahlgreen added that his suspicion as to why men are more likely to have a positive impression of lobsters is because they associate them with fine dining . 'As for why miniature pigs score so highly on female uniqueness, this isn’t because men are particularly likely to dislike them, but because women are more likely to be drawn towards cute animals,' he continued. 'We can’t tell for sure, but I suspect this is because it is easier to anthropomorphise these animals, in other words to ascribe human emotions to their facial expressions.' This chart shows the full scores for the 'uniquely male' animals, which were the ones that scored especially high with men but not high with women . Conversely, this chart shows those animals favoured by women, but not liked so much by men. It should be noted that none of the animals were 'disliked' - the survey asked for positive results only .

But when the genders were correlated, the results were surprising . Men preferred lobsters, alligators, sticklebacks, sharks and eagles .

Monty Python member Eric Idle attended the Royal School Wolverhampton . A £29,000-a-year boarding school will scrap all its fees this September to become one of David Cameron's latest free schools. The Royal School Wolverhampton, whose former pupils include the Monty Python member Eric Idle, will become a state school – with no fees to attend. The boarding school was one of 49 new free schools announced by the Prime Minister yesterday as part of a major expansion of the policy which allows schools to be set up by community groups including parents, charities or teachers. An extra 500 free schools will be opened by 2020 under a Conservative government, Mr Cameron said. The Royal School Wolverhampton is the latest of several private schools to scrap fees and take state funding via the free schools programme. The most prestigious was Liverpool College, while others included William Hulme Grammar School in Manchester, Queen Elizabeth’s Grammar School in Blackburn, and Chetwynde School in Barrow in Furness. Pupils at the school who don’t board currently pay fees of £13,230 – but this will fall to nothing from September. Families of children who board will see their fees drop to a boarding charge of between £10,000 and £14,000 a year. The school, in grounds of 25 acres, currently has 538 pupils, of whom 139 are boarders. As a state school it will expand to 1,200 children, with boarders dropping slightly to around 110. Free schools were introduced in 2010 to allow parents and community groups to set up their own schools. They are independent from local authorities but must still undergo Ofsted inspections. Supporters say they help to drive up standards by creating competition with existing schools, but Labour has opposed their creation in areas with a surplus of places where they are not needed. The new plan to open at least 500 of the schools by 2020 mean an extra 270,000 places. In a speech in London, Mr Cameron said: 'If you vote Conservative, you will see the continuation of the free schools programme at the rate you've seen in the last three years. 'That means, over the next parliament, we hope to open at least 500 new free schools resulting in 270,000 new school places. 'Remember - we're the only party that is committed to this. The only party that's opening up the education system so we can get more good places for your children. The Royal School Wolverhampton was one of 49 new free schools announced by the Prime Minister yesterday . 'And isn't that what every parent wants - a great education for their child? You deserve the security of knowing your child is getting just that. And with the Conservatives you should expect nothing less.' He also backed the idea of existing grammar schools. Taking questions from the audience, Mr Cameron was asked about comments he made in 2007 that a 'pledge to build more grammar schools would be an electoral albatross'. He insisted: 'I have never said that grammar schools are an albatross, grammar schools are good schools and I like good schools. I want there to be good schools for people to send their children to. 'What I've said about grammar schools is, like other schools that are good, if they want to expand they should be able to expand. I have been very consistent about that.' Education Secretary Nicky Morgan said she would not allow free schools to make a profit, despite the move being supported by her predecessor Michael Gove. She said she wanted each school to 'make the right choice for them' about whether to become a free school or academy. David Cameron talks with school children during a visit to The Green School for girls in west London today . Asked if she could rule out a Tory government allowing free schools to make a profit, she told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: 'Yes I can rule it out, I think having for profit education is something that would make me feel very uncomfortable and it is not something that is needed. 'We have excellent sponsors like charities and others or parent groups wanting to run schools and they are doing an excellent job up and down the country.' Mrs Morgan's insistence that there would be no profit-making schools for the whole of the next parliament suggests a shift in policy from her predecessor. Mr Gove, who lost his job as Education Secretary in July, had advocated allowing profit-making to encourage companies to set up successful free schools. In May 2012 he said: 'It's my belief that we could move to that situation but at the moment it's important to recognise that the free schools movement is succeeding without that element and I think we should cross that bridge when we come to it.' Labour has criticised the free schools policy, claiming it can lead to money being channelled to areas where there is a surplus of school places instead of being targeted at areas where classes are overcrowded.

A four-year-old girl made a life-saving 999 call after her mother collapsed - before telling the operator about Frozen, her pet dog and Santa. Megan Stratton has been handed an award and praised for summoning emergency crews to her mother Charlotte, 32. Mrs Stratton had been feeling unwell before she collapsed at her home in Lowestoft, Suffolk, and started to have a seizure last Christmas. Megan Stratton (centre) saved the life of her mother Charlotte (left) after she collapsed at home. Her husband Trevor (right) was out collecting medication at the time . Her husband Trevor, also 32, was out fetching some medication - but Megan knew what to do and calmly dialled 999. The youngster gave call handler Alan Austin her address before explaining that her mother was unwell and her father was out. When asked if she had any older siblings Megan tells the operator: 'Lulu is here with me, but she is my pet dog'. And when asked her mother's age, she replied: 'I don't know how old she is. Because she never tells me. I want to know how old... when she's better'. OPERATOR: Police emergency. Hello. Can you hear me? MEGAN: She’s struggling... she had another seizure. My dad has gone to get some medicine to eat . O: Is there someone else there? Have you got a big sister? A big brother? M: Lulu is here with me, but she is my pet dog . O: Oh. Lulu is your pet dog, is she? And how old are you? M: Four . O: Four. You’re doing really well for four. Mummy has epilepsy? M: No. But she has a seizures all day. Sometimes she does and sometimes she doesn’t . O: Ok what’s your name? M: Megan . O: Megan. That’s a pretty name. And you’re four are you? I’m going to get somebody to you. I’m going to get an ambulance to you to make sure mummy is alright. Ok, is the door open? M: The door isn’t open . O: Is she a young mummy? M: I don’t know how old she is. Because she never tells me. I want to know how old... when she’s better . O: When mummy has these seizures. Does she lay on the floor? M: She lays on the sofa sometimes. She’s laying on the floor now . O: Is mummy having a drink or is she just laying there? M: Just laying there . O: We’ve got policemen coming to you. I want you to stay on the phone until police get with you alright? M: Ok . O: And we’ve got an ambulance coming to you as well. That will come and make mummy better won’t they? M:... I want to put the cushion back. I will talk to you in a second . O: Yeah. You go and do what you’ve got to do for mummy, but don’t put the phone down. Come back and talk... You put mummy’s head on a cushion? M: She hasn’t got a cushion. I’ll just get her a cushion . O: Get her a cushion, yeah . M (to her mother): Mummy, cushion . M (to the operator): She’s got a cushion now . O: Have you? Well done. You’ve done really well. Megan, are you able to unlock the door so that the ambulance men can come in and see mummy? M: No I can’t unlock it because the key is on something really high so I can’t do it... O: We’ve got policemen coming. Alright. We may have to make a little bit of noise to get in to see mummy alright? M: Ok... I don’t know how you can get in to see mum because my dad is out . O: That’s ok. We’ve got lots of things we can do to get in, but it may make a little but of noise... So I want you to stay on the phone to me. Who’s mobile are you on? Is it mum’s phone? M: Yeah, its mum’s phone. Not dad’s because he’s got his with him . O: Do you need to go and stroke mummy to make sure she’s happy, because you can go and kneel down with her with the mobile.

It won’t be overnight. ‘At least five years I think, until it can be what it was. The whole infrastructure has got to be looked at. It has pretty much been decimated over the last four years. ‘This is a long-term project, it’s not going to be fixed overnight. No chance.

Rangers manager McDowall during a training session at Murray Park on Wednesday afternoon . ‘This is probably my last game, but I have handed my notice in and have 10 months or so to do and if I need to be here for the 10 months I have said all along that’s what I will do. Whether I am in charge or coaching — if the club need me I am here.’ McDowall has warned supporters that, even if King and allies Paul Murray and John Gilligan do claim the keys to Ibrox, it could still take five years to rebuild the shattered club. ‘I think fans understand the need to be patient,’ said the former No2 to Ally McCoist, ‘because they know what has gone on here. It won’t be overnight. ‘At least five years I think, until it can be what it was. The whole infrastructure has got to be looked at. It has pretty much been decimated over the last four years. ‘This is a long-term project, it’s not going to be fixed overnight. No chance. That’s why it’s so important whoever comes in that they get it right.’ [/INST] Former Fulham manager Felix Magath owns shares in Rangers . Magath has been out of work since leaving Fulham last year .

Seydou Keita scored a late equaliser to give Roma the advantage in this all-Italian Europa League last-16 tie - and saved team-mate Adem Ljalic's blushes at the same time. Ljalic had the chance to cancel out Josip Ilicic's first-half opener with a penalty on the hour mark but saw his effort saved by Fiorentina goalkeeper Neto. The away goal for Roma could be vital as the second-place Serie A side look to take the initiative in the return leg at the Stadio Olimpico next week. Seydou Keita runs over to team-mate Gervinho to celebrate his equalising goal for Roma against Fiorentina .

The hosts started stronger, and it was no surprise when Mohamed Salah fashioned the chance for the opening goal after 17 minutes. Salah has been a revelation since arriving in Serie A on loan from Chelsea, with six goals in seven appearances, and he continued his good run of form by playing Ilicic in for the opener. With Fiorentina on the counter-attack, Salah picked up the ball on the left flank - slightly unfamiliar for him - and drove forward at pace. No challenges came in and the Egyptian had the simple task of slipping the ball between two defenders to the feet of Ilicic, who took a touch to compose himself before smashing a left-footed drive past Lukasz Skorupski at his near post. Roma came more into it as the half went on and missed good opportunities through Juan Manuel Iturbe and Alessandro Florenzi but they did also lose both captain Daniel de Rossi and Kostas Manolas to injury. Radja Nainggolan also picked up a booking meaning he will miss the second leg in the Italian capital.

Official records claim a staggering 6.5million 'super-centurions' have reached the grand age of 112 in the U.S. - but it is all down to missing death certificates. A record-keeping blip means Social Security records appear to show America has a group of super-centenarians equal to the population of El Salvador. But in fact there are only 19 people who say they are over the age of 112 in the U.S. today, and Social Security admits there are only 13 still getting benefits. Mistake: A record-keeping blip means Social Security records appear to show America has a group of super-centenarians equal to the population of El Salvador (stock picture) Record-holder: Just 19 women are over the age of 122 in America, with Gertrude Weaver, of Arkansas, pictured, the oldest among them at 116 years and 255 days old . The error has been caused because Social Security does not have death records for millions of people, the oldest of whom was born in 1869. That would mean, were that person still alive, they would be 146 years old - 24 years older than the oldest living person in history, Frenchwoman Jeanne Calment, who was 122 when she died in 1997. They would also be considerably older than America's oldest living resident, Gertrude Weaver of Arkansas, who is 116 years and 255 days old. But far from being something to chuckle about, Republican Senator Ron Johnson, who represents Wisconsin, has raised it as a cause for concern. It means there are millions of Social Security numbers which are still active, so a number could be used to report wages, open bank accounts, obtain credit cards or claim fraudulent tax refunds. Problem: Senator Ron Johnson, pictured, says the active numbers are an issue as they can be used illegally . 'That is a real problem,' said Senator Johnson. 'When you have a fake Social Security number, that's what allows you to fraudulently do all kinds things, claim things like the earned income tax credit or other tax benefits.' Johnson is chairman of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, which plans a hearing Monday on problems with death records maintained by the Social Security Administration. The agency said it is working to improve the accuracy of its death records. However, it would be costly and time-consuming to update 6.5million files created at a time when the agency used paper records, said Sean Brune, a senior adviser to the agency's deputy commissioner for budget, finance, quality and management. President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Social Security Act in 1935, and the first old-age monthly benefit check was paid in 1940. 'The records in this review are extremely old, decades-old, and unreliable,' Brune said. The internal watchdog's report does not document any fraudulent or improper payments to people using these Social Security numbers - but it raises red flags that it could be happening. Landmark: President Franklin Roosevelt signs the Social Security bill in Washington in 1935 . For example, nearly 67,000 of the Social Security numbers were used to report more than $3billion in wages, tips and self-employment income from 2006 to 2011, according to the report. One Social Security number was used 613 different times, while 194 numbers were used at least 50 times each. Illegal immigrants often use fake or stolen Social Security numbers to get jobs and report wages, as do other people who do not want to be found by the government, and thieves are known to use stolen Social Security numbers to claim fraudulent tax refunds. The IRS estimated it paid out $5.8billion in fraudulent tax refunds in 2013 because of identity theft. But the Social Security Administration is trying to combat the problem, generating a list of dead people known as the 'Death Master File', so employers can compare the numbers they are given with those which should no longer be in use. But none of the 6.5million people cited by the inspector general's report was on the list.

The White House committed today to a 'firm' deadline of Tuesday for Iran to make a permanent pact with a group of international negotiators not to build up it nuclear capabilities. 'We’ve been clear that the end of March is a firm deadline, and that’s simply because these negotiations have taken place over the course of more than a year,' White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest told reporters on Friday afternoon. 'That should be ample opportunity for us to reach an agreement.' SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO . U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, center, lit, talks with members of his delegation after a meeting with Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif and other officials at the Beau Rivage Palace Hotel on Friday. Major powers and Iran were pushing each other for concessions ahead of an end-March deadline for a preliminary nuclear deal, with Tehran demanding an immediate end to sanctions and freedom to continue sensitive atomic research, officials said . Kerry, left, U.S. Secretary of Energy Ernest Moniz, 2nd left, and others, including Head of Iranian Atomic Energy Organisation Ali Akbar Salehi, 2nd right, and  Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif, right, particpate in a Friday meeting at the Beau Rivage Palace on Friday in Lausanne, Switzerland . The timetable for the details of the agreement to be set in stone continues to be the end of June. 'But where we need to start, is the outlines of a political agreement,' he said, which 'is something we are aiming to achieve by the end of March.' U.S. officials and their foreign counterparts in the P5 +1 group - the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council along with Germany - were in Switzerland on Friday with Iran's negotiators making a desperate last ditch bid to secure a landmark agreement - 13 years since the country's nuclear program became public. Britain's Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond said earlier this week an agreement was 'deliverable' but urged Iran to make 'tough decisions' ahead of the meeting in Lausanne, on the shores of Lake Geneva. Along with five world powers, Britain is seeking a deal that would allow Iran to continue its Uranium enrichment program while reducing the likelihood of it gaining nuclear weapons. Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif told reporters staking out the talks that he didn't have a strong sense if an acceptable agreement could be made in the next several days. 'The negotiations are difficult and complicated and there . are highs and lows,' Zarif said, according to Reuters. 'We think an agreement is still . possible but when is another story. Our feeling is that we . certainly will be able to reach an agreement, but that will need . political will on the other side.' The White House said Friday that it continued to believe the coalition had a 50 percent chance of convincing Iran to make the required concessions by the last day of the month, Tuesday, March 31. 'It’s still at best 50-50,' White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said Friday. 'That’s the odds that I have previously given to the likelihood of an agreement being reached before the deadline, and those odds have not changed.' Iran's Foreign Minister Javad Zarif, left, talks with the head of the Iranian Atomic Energy Organization Ali Akbar Salehi after Friday's meeting. An Iranian official told Reuters that lingering issues with the international coalition, which includes, China, Russia and France in addition to Germany, Britain and the U.S., were over research and development and U.N. sanctions . Still 'fluid' next week is Obama's schedule. The White House declined to give reporters a preview on Friday, as is generally expected, of the president's plans beyond a Monday trip to Boston, Massachusetts, leaving him open to take on a more direct role in negotiations. The president has been receiving regular and at least 'daily' updates on the situation, his spokesman said Friday. After the afternoon briefing the White House sent reporters a notice that Obama had called German Chancellor Angela Merkel to discuss the state of negotiations. The statement said the two world leaders agreed that 'Iran must make decisions necessary to resolve several remaining issues.' It did not provide details on what those deal-breaking matters were. An Iranian official told Reuters, however, that lingering issues with the coalition, which includes, China, Russia and France in addition to Germany, Britain and the U.S., were over research and development and U.N. sanctions. Iran reportedly wants an immediate draw down of sanctions, which the U.S. and its partners have said is a deal-breaker. The White House reiterated on Friday that only after it verified, over time, that Iran was keeping up its end of the pact would it ask Congress to ease sanctions on the country. Another Iranian negotiator told AFP on Friday that as far as his country is concerned, 'It all depends on the willingness of the other side. All the solutions are on the table.' 'We have already done what we need to do,' he stated. Iranian President Hassan Rouhani reached out directly to the leaders of France, Russia, Britain and China on Thursday in an attempt to break the stalemate and passed on letters to all six members of the international coalition, including President Obama. Elsewhere, the hawkish French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius has warned against a soft deal during negotiations. 'Tough decisions': This map helps demonstrate how Iran's nuclear program is spread across the country . Britain's Hammond warned failure to achieve a deal over Iran's nuclear program could trigger a nuclear arms race in the Middle East. Iran's nuclear program became public in 2002 when an opposition group revealed secret activity including construction of an uranium enrichment plant and a heavy-water reactor. Enriched uranium can be used to make reactor fuel but also nuclear weapons, while spent fuel from a heavy-water reactor contains plutonium suitable for a bomb. Following that, Iran agreed to inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). But the IAEA could not confirm whether it had tried to develop nuclear weapons. This led the P5+1 to press Iran to stop enriching uranium. Talks failed and in 2005 the IAEA referred Iran to the UN Security Council for failing to comply with the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). Since then, the Security Council has adopted six resolutions requiring Iran to stop enriching uranium, some imposing sanctions. In 2012, the US and EU began imposing additional sanctions on Iranian oil exports and banks, putting pressure on Iran to negotiate. Tehran insists its program is for civil nuclear power, but the international community has imposed sanctions amid concerns Iran harbors ambitions to create nuclear weapons. In a speech in London, Hammond said he was clear that 'no deal is better than a bad deal' if talks in Switzerland break down this weekend. 'But we should also be clear-eyed about the alternative,' he said.

<s>[INST] The White House committed today to a 'firm' deadline of Tuesday for Iran to make a permanent pact with a group of international negotiators not to build up it nuclear capabilities. 'We’ve been clear that the end of March is a firm deadline, and that’s simply because these negotiations have taken place over the course of more than a year,' White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest told reporters on Friday afternoon. 'That should be ample opportunity for us to reach an agreement.' SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO . U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, center, lit, talks with members of his delegation after a meeting with Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif and other officials at the Beau Rivage Palace Hotel on Friday. Major powers and Iran were pushing each other for concessions ahead of an end-March deadline for a preliminary nuclear deal, with Tehran demanding an immediate end to sanctions and freedom to continue sensitive atomic research, officials said .

The timetable for the details of the agreement to be set in stone continues to be the end of June. 'But where we need to start, is the outlines of a political agreement,' he said, which 'is something we are aiming to achieve by the end of March.' U.S. officials and their foreign counterparts in the P5 +1 group - the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council along with Germany - were in Switzerland on Friday with Iran's negotiators making a desperate last ditch bid to secure a landmark agreement - 13 years since the country's nuclear program became public. Britain's Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond said earlier this week an agreement was 'deliverable' but urged Iran to make 'tough decisions' ahead of the meeting in Lausanne, on the shores of Lake Geneva. Along with five world powers, Britain is seeking a deal that would allow Iran to continue its Uranium enrichment program while reducing the likelihood of it gaining nuclear weapons. Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif told reporters staking out the talks that he didn't have a strong sense if an acceptable agreement could be made in the next several days. 'The negotiations are difficult and complicated and there . are highs and lows,' Zarif said, according to Reuters. 'We think an agreement is still . possible but when is another story. Our feeling is that we . certainly will be able to reach an agreement, but that will need . political will on the other side.' The White House said Friday that it continued to believe the coalition had a 50 percent chance of convincing Iran to make the required concessions by the last day of the month, Tuesday, March 31. 'It’s still at best 50-50,' White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said Friday. 'That’s the odds that I have previously given to the likelihood of an agreement being reached before the deadline, and those odds have not changed.' Iran's Foreign Minister Javad Zarif, left, talks with the head of the Iranian Atomic Energy Organization Ali Akbar Salehi after Friday's meeting. An Iranian official told Reuters that lingering issues with the international coalition, which includes, China, Russia and France in addition to Germany, Britain and the U.S., were over research and development and U.N. sanctions . Still 'fluid' next week is Obama's schedule. The White House declined to give reporters a preview on Friday, as is generally expected, of the president's plans beyond a Monday trip to Boston, Massachusetts, leaving him open to take on a more direct role in negotiations. The president has been receiving regular and at least 'daily' updates on the situation, his spokesman said Friday. After the afternoon briefing the White House sent reporters a notice that Obama had called German Chancellor Angela Merkel to discuss the state of negotiations. The statement said the two world leaders agreed that 'Iran must make decisions necessary to resolve several remaining issues.' It did not provide details on what those deal-breaking matters were. An Iranian official told Reuters, however, that lingering issues with the coalition, which includes, China, Russia and France in addition to Germany, Britain and the U.S., were over research and development and U.N. sanctions. Iran reportedly wants an immediate draw down of sanctions, which the U.S. and its partners have said is a deal-breaker. The White House reiterated on Friday that only after it verified, over time, that Iran was keeping up its end of the pact would it ask Congress to ease sanctions on the country. Another Iranian negotiator told AFP on Friday that as far as his country is concerned, 'It all depends on the willingness of the other side. All the solutions are on the table.' 'We have already done what we need to do,' he stated. Iranian President Hassan Rouhani reached out directly to the leaders of France, Russia, Britain and China on Thursday in an attempt to break the stalemate and passed on letters to all six members of the international coalition, including President Obama. Elsewhere, the hawkish French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius has warned against a soft deal during negotiations. 'Tough decisions': This map helps demonstrate how Iran's nuclear program is spread across the country . Britain's Hammond warned failure to achieve a deal over Iran's nuclear program could trigger a nuclear arms race in the Middle East. Iran's nuclear program became public in 2002 when an opposition group revealed secret activity including construction of an uranium enrichment plant and a heavy-water reactor. Enriched uranium can be used to make reactor fuel but also nuclear weapons, while spent fuel from a heavy-water reactor contains plutonium suitable for a bomb. Following that, Iran agreed to inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). But the IAEA could not confirm whether it had tried to develop nuclear weapons. This led the P5+1 to press Iran to stop enriching uranium. Talks failed and in 2005 the IAEA referred Iran to the UN Security Council for failing to comply with the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). Since then, the Security Council has adopted six resolutions requiring Iran to stop enriching uranium, some imposing sanctions. In 2012, the US and EU began imposing additional sanctions on Iranian oil exports and banks, putting pressure on Iran to negotiate. Tehran insists its program is for civil nuclear power, but the international community has imposed sanctions amid concerns Iran harbors ambitions to create nuclear weapons. In a speech in London, Hammond said he was clear that 'no deal is better than a bad deal' if talks in Switzerland break down this weekend. 'But we should also be clear-eyed about the alternative,' he said. 'No deal means no restrictions on enrichment, no restrictions on research and development, and no independent monitoring or verification. It means a fundamentally more unstable Middle East, with the prospect of a nuclear arms race in the region.' He added: 'So now is the time, with our key allies, to build on the recent momentum, to press Iran where differences remain, and to strain every sinew to get a deal over the finishing line. The door to a nuclear deal is open, but Iran must now step through it.'

The bassist in a popular indie band has ruled himself out of the group's upcoming tour after he literally shot himself in the foot. Nick Gardner from Perth ensemble San Cisco was on a friend's farm taking some time out last week to hunt pests when the unfortunate incident occurred. The band member was with a friend near the West Australian town of Collie, about 200 kilometres south of Perth, when they were driving through rough terrain and the gun went off. The bass player in Perth band San Cisco has ruled himself out of the first leg of the band's upcoming tour after he literally shot himself in the foot . 'As we were driving through an exceptionally rough paddock, I reached down to stop the gun from bouncing around and before I knew it, it had gone off,' Gardner said. 'The bolt had slid down and the jolting had triggered the gun. Somewhat of a freak accident. I realised I had been shot and ripped off my boot and sock to reveal a hole in my foot and blood everywhere. Gardner then explained the mate he was with, Isaac, quickly jumped into action grabbing his first aid kit and bandaging his friend's foot up. The gun went off accidentally while the bassist was in the car on the way to hunt pests . 'He then started driving towards the nearest hospital, which was 100kms away. I passed out in shock and came to shaking and being yelled at. 'By the time we got to the hospital I was calm, but in excruciating pain. The doctors got morphine into me and put me in an ambulance headed for a bigger hospital,' he continued. 'I eventually made it to the Perth hospital where a specialist has done a great job putting my foot back together.' San Cisco (Nick Gardner is pictured left) kick off their international tour across the US, Mexico and Europe later this month . Although the bassist is now on the mend, he will miss the first leg of San Cisco's tour, which sees them hit the US and Mexico before heading to Europe. Gardner said he's devastated to be missing the band's first festival in Mexico, but will rejoin San Cisco in Europe 'when I'm not completely knocked out by painkillers'. 'However I know the band will do me proud and there will still be the same show, just without my embarrassing dancing!,' he added. This news comes ahead of the release of the band's latest album, Gracetown this Friday March 6.

A groom who had a baby and got married on the same day has been spared jail after he glassed a guest at the reception. Karl and Jasmine Storey got married at Gretna Green, Scotland, in October last year - just hours after the 27-year-old gave birth to their baby boy Anthony. The family then returned to their hometown of Kielder, Northumberland, for the wedding reception at a local pub where a fight erupted, a court heard. Karl and Jasmine Storey married at Gretna Green in October last year, hours after she gave birth to their son Anthony (pictured) Newcastle Crown Court was told that the 26-year-old had spotted his brother Dale Storey, 20, being confronted by another guest and intervened by striking a pint glass over the other man. The guest had been leaving the reception with his daughter, who worked behind the bar but had been drinking after her shift, when he was told that Dale had possibly spiked her drink. He had returned to confront Dale when the row, which was captured on CCTV, broke out and resulted in the man, who has not been named, being taken to hospital. Prosecuting, Emma Dowling said: 'The victim's daughter works at the bar where the reception was taking place. 'She finished her shift and got very drunk very quickly leading to her and her father leaving the bar. 'As they were leaving, the victim heard whispers that Dale Storey had purposely got her very drunk with heavy spirits and potentially spiked her. He returned to the bar to confront him and pushed Dale. 'Karl Storey comes across and strikes him in the face with a pint glass before Dale joins in and gets the victim in a headlock before numerous punches are thrown. 'The victim describes being punched a number of times and had blood running down his face. The males were then split up.' The guest sustained six or seven small cuts to his eye and was taken to hospital for treatment that night. Miss Dowling read from the victim impact statement saying the victim was 'disgusted by the attack' and feels he could have been 'blinded'. At the wedding reception, the groom (centre with Mrs Storey) spotted his brother in an argument and intervened by smashing a glass on the guest's head . At 7.40am that morning, Mrs Storey gave birth to their son before they made the 45-mile round trip to Gretna for the wedding. They were chauffeured between the hospital, wedding and reception by Karl's other brother, Bryan. Speaking at the time, Karl said: 'He was as good as gold during the ceremony and it's turned out to be the most amazing day of my life. I can't take it all in.' Defending Donald Mcfall said: 'The defendant comes from a stable home, is a very dedicated family man and is a hard working individual. 'He has four children which requires a great deal of dedication. 'Karl and his brother were simply standing in the reception when Karl saw his brother being attacked and he's then reacted to it. 'The single punch he threw with the glass in hand was not intentional and he did not intend to use it as a weapon. 'He was trying to stop this man from attacking his brother. He regrets his actions and insists there was no bad blood previous and there is none now. He expresses full remorse.' Kate Barnes, also for the defence, said: 'He has no previous convictions and left school with a number of qualifications. He strongly denies spiking anyone's drink that night. 'It was supposed to be a happy day and on that occasion he had drunk in excess, something he does not normally do. 'He is not unintelligent and has a great deal of insight into what happened that evening. He expresses full remorse for his actions. 'His part in this was to deliver one or two blows which seemingly aren't responsible for any of the victim's injuries.' Karl Storey was given a suspended sentence at Newcastle Crown Court (pictured) and his brother Dale was also given a similar sentence . Karl Storey pleaded guilty to unlawful wounding and Dale Storey pleaded guilty to common assault. Ms Recorder Turner, sentenced Karl to a 12 month suspended sentence, with an 160 unpaid work requirement and a compensation charge of £500. The judge sentenced Dale to a 12 month community order with an 100 hours unpaid work requirement and a compensation charge of £100. The judge said: 'The 31st of October should have been a very happy day because it was your wedding day and your wife had given birth to a baby boy. 'You had both enjoyed the wedding and were celebrating that and the new arrival of the baby boy to the family. You both had far too much to drink and this is something you must watch. 'I am not going to send either of you prison today but I still want you to realise this is a very serious matter. 'I have watched the CCTV and it seems something was troubling the complainant. What followed after that was an attack that lasted quite some time. 'You must understand that you can't keep acting like this and you're lucky that the victim did not have more injuries. 'Ordinarily, it seems you are both decent young men and I believe both of you do not pose a real threat to the public.' 'Let's hope this was just a minor blip in both your lives.'

Fit-again Ulster lock Dan Tuohy has been called into a 36-man wider training squad for Ireland's drive towards the RBS 6 Nations Grand Slam. The 29-year-old has missed Ireland's entire Six Nations campaign so far after damaging thumb ligaments in January.

Dan Tuohy has been called into the training squad for Ireland's drive towards the Six Nations Grand Slam . Ireland's head coach Joe Schmidt shouts instructions to his players during a training session . Ireland were hugely impressive as they beat England 19-9 in their previous Six Nations encounter . Tuohy trudged out of Ireland's 26-3 Six Nations victory over Wales in Dublin last year, suffering his first arm fracture just nine minutes after joining the second-half fray. The former Gloucester and Exeter tight-five forward missed out as Ireland clinched the 2014 Six Nations title, before being ruled out of the autumn Tests after suffering another broken arm. The luckless lock is back fit and firing again however, and will be keen to make an impression as Ireland gear up to face Wales in Cardiff on Saturday.
