Marouane Fellaini has endured a lot since swapping Merseyside for Manchester. Derided as a symbol of the David Moyes regime, ridiculed by his own fans and, lately, held responsible for Louis van Gaal’s occasional lurch towards route-one football, the big Belgian has had more weighing on his shoulders than that trademark mass of curly hair. So the standing ovation he received from the majority of Manchester United supporters when he came off against Tottenham at Old Trafford last weekend will have been music to his ears. Marouane Fellaini fires Manchester United into the lead against Spurs, a reminder of his footballing ability . The Belgian trains ahead of United's crucial clash with Liverpool on Sunday, where he is sure to be involved . Fellaini has grown from a bit-part player last season to become a vital member of Louis van Gaal's squad . A well-taken opening goal with his left foot served as a reminder that Fellaini’s attributes are not just sandwiched between his chest and his head. There are those who will never accept that he is a true United player, who believe his very presence encourages United to play other than the United way. But as he prepares to make his first appearance on Merseyside since moving from Everton when Van Gaal’s side take on Liverpool on Sunday, the 6ft 4in midfielder has every right to feel that things are looking up. The £27.5million white elephant of Old Trafford has been reinvented as United’s not-so-secret weapon. The advanced role that Van Gaal has given to Fellaini led Sam Allardyce, of all people, to label his opponents ‘Long Ball United’ after the 27-year-old’s introduction off the bench helped salvage a 1-1 draw at West Ham last month. Fellaini starred in the 3-0 win over Liverpool at Old Trafford in December, and offers Van Gaal an alternative . Wayne Rooney celebrates with the big Belgian, who has scored five times for United this season . Fellaini was tainted, somewhat unfairly, by being the only signing made during David Moyes' summer in charge . Van Gaal doesn’t care. ‘Fellaini is a player that, when we cannot beat the pressure with quality, we can always beat with pressure — that is a quality,’ says the Dutchman. The transition from defensive midfielder, who first impressed Moyes playing for Standard Liege against Liverpool in the Champions League in 2008, to target man worked particularly well for Everton. But, unlike Van Gaal, Moyes did not feel comfortable deploying Fellaini in a similar role at Old Trafford, having drawn enough criticism merely for signing him when Cesc Fabregas was his priority in the summer of 2013. Disastrously, Fellaini ended up as United’s only signing and Moyes knew that he risked being accused of turning the Premier League champions into a poor imitation of Everton. The player was said to be ecstatic at signing for United, if a little overawed at the scale of the club. He struck up an immediate bond with fellow Belgian Adnan Januzaj and, later, Juan Mata, when the Spaniard joined the following January. By then it had all started to go wrong, a combination of injuries and sub-standard performances in a more defensive position confirming the fears of many United supporters. Last April, the now-defunct fanzine Red Issue mocked up an advert of his afro hair as a toilet brush with the slogan: ‘Flush a fortune down the pan’. Since the arrival of Van Gaal, the midfielder has been used as an outlet and a way of breaking teams down . The Belgian was given a rousing applause when he was replaced after a good performance against Tottenham . Fellaini was said to be devastated by it all, and even more so when Moyes was sacked later that month. He felt isolated and has since claimed that he was made a scapegoat for the club’s decline. One thing that never waned, however, was Fellaini’s determination to salvage his dream. When he returned from the World Cup last summer he held talks with Van Gaal, who reassured him that he would not be sold despite talk of a move to Napoli. The message had not reached United fans, some of whom sarcastically applauded Fellaini’s every touch in Van Gaal’s first home game against Valencia right up until the moment he scored a last-minute winner. Even then, it was assumed that his first goal for United would be his last. Five more have followed this season. Fellaini came off the bench at half-time to turn the game at West Brom in October and again at QPR in January. In between, he started in six successive wins before Christmas, ending with a comprehensive 3-0 win over Liverpool when he destroyed his old Merseyside rivals. While Moyes seemed loathe to play Fellaini off the striker, Van Gaal has returned him to his best role . Fellaini may suit slightly more 'long ball' football, but has shown he can be mighty effective for United . Now Fellaini is set to face them again on Sunday having won over at least some of his critics, much to the admiration of Phil Neville, his former Everton team-mate and United’s first-team coach under Moyes. ‘Last season Fellaini was getting ridiculed and the way he has come back from that has been fantastic,’ said Neville. ‘He’s won people over by being brave about the stick he was getting and never going missing in games, even when things were not working for him. ‘You also have to give Louis van Gaal credit. He has not been afraid of playing to Fellaini’s strengths despite being criticised for doing so. I think he has come up trumps.’

A politician who sued his rival for calling him 'Del Boy' in a campaign leaflet is facing a £50,000 bill after dropping the lawsuit because he has 'developed thicker skin'. Neil McEvoy launched the legal action after Labour opponent Michael Michael distributed a circular which had his photo superimposed onto the face of the Only Fools and Horses character. Plaid Cymru's Neil McEvoy, a former deputy leader of Cardiff City Council, claimed the leaflet implied that he was 'not to be trusted'. Neil McEvoy (left) is facing a £50,000 bill after launching legal action against Labour opponent Michael Michael (right) over a campaign leaflet which depicted him as Del Boy Only Fools and Horses . But a top judge found it was not defamatory to compare someone to David Jason's on-screen character, instead labelling it 'the stuff of political disagreement'. Mr McEvoy later withdrew his High Court libel case, saying he regretted bringing the action. But he has now been ordered to pay £50,000 of his rival's legal costs. Speaking after the case, Mr McEvoy said: 'With hindsight, I now regret having started this action. 'I have developed a thicker skin, and in future if I dislike something written about me I will write a leaflet of my own instead of issuing a writ. 'I don't think anyone has gained from this case going to court. This is the end of it, and it's time to move on.' A judge ruled that comparing Mr McEvoy to David Jason's on-screen character was critical but not defamatory . The two councillors had become locked in a legal battle after the leaflet was distributed to around 2,000 homes in the Fairwater area of the Welsh capital. Mr McEvoy, a member of Welsh party Plaid Cymru, had claimed the leaflet 'questioned my probity'. His lawyer David Hughes had argued: 'We all know who Del Boy is - Del Trotter is best described as a "loveable rogue". 'The loveable element of Del Trotter's character comes from his good humour, his linguistic faux-pas, the amusing incidents that befall him, and the fact that he is fictional. 'The newsletters entirely eliminate any suggestion that Councillor McEvoy is in any way loveable. That leaves him being described as a rogue. 'He's not to be trusted. He's a rogue. Which of us would like to be compared to Del Boy?' Mr Michael had maintained it was a 'light-hearted' leaflet and that he was 'surprised' anyone was offended by its content. He said he had received feedback that people 'enjoyed' it. His lawyer Hugh Tomlinson QC argued that the comparison would not have been taken literally by residents. High Court Judge Andrew Keyser QC, sitting at Cardiff Civil Justice Centre, said the leaflet implied that Mr McEvoy was a ‘money-loving and money-seeking entrepreneur' who was ‘prone to unrealistic fantasies and improbable business ideas’. But he ruled that it was not unusual or defamatory to suggest that politicians' policies are fantasies, or lacking in realism. He said: 'The picture and words do not mean the claimant is a roguish character.' Mr McEvoy, who withdrew the case on legal advice, is covered by libel insurance.

The charity race at Cheltenham is supposed to be all about the taking part - except when serial winners Sir Alex Ferguson and multi-champion trainer Paul Nicholls are involved. Co-owner Fergie and Nicholls were so keen for the Ditcheat trainer’s head lad Clifford Baker to ride the winner that his fancied mount Rainy City, who cost £100,000, had exploited the grey areas of eligibility for the last race on the Festival card yesterday. The regulations, confirmed by a Cheltenham spokeswoman, state that horses in the line-up should all have been given an average BHA rating to ensure a competitive race. Sir Alex Ferguson (right) and Paul Nicholls (left) were at Cheltenham to watch Rainy City finish fifth . Yet Rainy City, who is highly thought of in the Nicholls yard, had no BHA rating, and rival jockeys were concerned that Fergie’s horse was far superior to the rest of the field. The get-out clause buried in the fine print was that any horse without a rating could be handicapped by Cheltenham at their discretion. In the event, Rainy City finished an outpaced fifth, having led for most of the 1m 5f. Nicholls said: ‘Of course we wanted to win. But it’s a charity race and we entered to give Clifford a ride.’ Arena Racing Company, who own racecourses that stage 40 per cent of UK fixtures, still chose to hold their annual drinks party during Cheltenham, even though it is not one of their tracks. ARC are owned by the Reuben brothers, the billionaire property developers who have caused serious upset by closing down popular racecourse Hereford and moving its meetings to the over-raced Chepstow and Uttoxeter tracks. Hereford is now empty most of the time as part of a long-term property play between the local council and the Reuben brothers, who are never seen at the races.

Everyone may be in love with the cast of characters on Lee Daniel's music-themed drama Empire, but behind the scenes the actors are far from in love with each other. Sources close to the record-breaking Fox series - which drew an impressive 21.1 million viewers for its season finale last week, the highest-rated finale since Grey's Anatomy in 2005 - tell Daily Mail Online that there is just as much drama behind the scenes as you see on camera. Empire is a hip-hop drama based on the story of Lucius Lyon, played by Terrence Howard, a former drug dealer turned hip hop mogul, and his ex-wife, Cookie (Taraji P. Henson). And while the couple are at odds in the show, they are co-conspirators behind the scenes. The insider revealed that Oscar nominees Taraji P.Henson and Terrence Howard have complete control the set. The two stars oversee the scripts and are often making changes as late as the day of taping. SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO . Thick as thieves: Empire stars Terrence Howard and Taraji Henson rule the roost - both in the show and off . A leg up: The plotting pair have made sure they have control over scripts and co-stars . Weighty issues: Henson and Grace Gealey (who plays Anika "Boo Boo Kitty" Calhoun) don't get along on the set.

She plays the lead on one of the hottest new shows on TV but Taraji P. Henson's off screen style is a lot more subtle than the character she plays on Empire, Cookie Lyon. During a recent event, the talented actress joined her costar, Terrance Howard, onstage in a pink ribbed Cynthia Rowley dress and a pair of Dolce & Gabbana strappy sandals, showing off her amazing pins.

Meowch: A catfight scene in the season finale between Henson and Gealey was too close for comfort, says insider . 'They call for re-writes if they don't like the lines or feel as though another character is getting more camera time than they are,' says the source. 'They both have final approval over the script, which often frustrates the other actors because it causes their lines to regularly change.' Henson and her co-star Grace Gealey (Anika "Boo Boo Kitty" Calhoun) don't get along on the set. Sources say that Henson has been trying to lose weight and sometimes wears Spanx to cover her 'tummy pooch.' Apparently, she's envious of Gealey's small waist and the sexy, fitted dresses wardrobe likes to put her in. 'Taraji hates Grace's tiny figure and often complains to wardrobe about putting her in outfits sexier than her character's. She says stuff like, "if you put her a** in anything tighter she won't be able to breathe,"' our source revealed. Meanwhile, Taraji herself wore a tight-fitting hot pink number at a recent Empire event. On set, the two actresses stay far, far away from each other. Their real-life tension seems to be captured in their on-camera feud, which ended in a physical fight scene on the season finale. Howard has had his own issues with co-star Malik Yoba (Vernon Turner), who sources say was killed off in the season finale at Howard's urging. 'He never liked working opposite Malik because women just swoon over him. During promotional appearances and public events, women would go crazy over Malik because he's been a Hollywood stud for a long time. Gone: Howard has had issues with co-star Malik Yoba (Vernon Turner), who sources say was killed off on the season finale at Howard's urging . Favoritism: Oscar nominee Gabourey Sidibe (left) is also unhappy with her limited story line on Empire and blames it on Henson favoring Ta'Rhonda Jones, who plays Cookie's assistant Porsha . 'That drove Terrence crazy,' the source explained. Yoba was often frustrated that he had limited lines and knew that Howard was responsible for getting his camera time cut short. Oscar nominee Gabourey Sidibe is also unhappy with her limited storyline on Empire and blames it on Henson favoring Ta'Rhonda Jones, who plays Cookie's assistant Porsha. Sidibe, who joined Empire fresh off of American Horror Story, feels she's regulated to just running down the hall shouting one and two word lines to Howard's character Lucius.

<s>[INST] Everyone may be in love with the cast of characters on Lee Daniel's music-themed drama Empire, but behind the scenes the actors are far from in love with each other. Sources close to the record-breaking Fox series - which drew an impressive 21.1 million viewers for its season finale last week, the highest-rated finale since Grey's Anatomy in 2005 - tell Daily Mail Online that there is just as much drama behind the scenes as you see on camera. Empire is a hip-hop drama based on the story of Lucius Lyon, played by Terrence Howard, a former drug dealer turned hip hop mogul, and his ex-wife, Cookie (Taraji P. Henson). And while the couple are at odds in the show, they are co-conspirators behind the scenes. The insider revealed that Oscar nominees Taraji P.Henson and Terrence Howard have complete control the set. The two stars oversee the scripts and are often making changes as late as the day of taping. SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO . Thick as thieves: Empire stars Terrence Howard and Taraji Henson rule the roost - both in the show and off . A leg up: The plotting pair have made sure they have control over scripts and co-stars . Weighty issues: Henson and Grace Gealey (who plays Anika "Boo Boo Kitty" Calhoun) don't get along on the set.

She plays the lead on one of the hottest new shows on TV but Taraji P. Henson's off screen style is a lot more subtle than the character she plays on Empire, Cookie Lyon. During a recent event, the talented actress joined her costar, Terrance Howard, onstage in a pink ribbed Cynthia Rowley dress and a pair of Dolce & Gabbana strappy sandals, showing off her amazing pins.

Meowch: A catfight scene in the season finale between Henson and Gealey was too close for comfort, says insider . 'They call for re-writes if they don't like the lines or feel as though another character is getting more camera time than they are,' says the source. 'They both have final approval over the script, which often frustrates the other actors because it causes their lines to regularly change.' Henson and her co-star Grace Gealey (Anika "Boo Boo Kitty" Calhoun) don't get along on the set. Sources say that Henson has been trying to lose weight and sometimes wears Spanx to cover her 'tummy pooch.' Apparently, she's envious of Gealey's small waist and the sexy, fitted dresses wardrobe likes to put her in. 'Taraji hates Grace's tiny figure and often complains to wardrobe about putting her in outfits sexier than her character's. She says stuff like, "if you put her a** in anything tighter she won't be able to breathe,"' our source revealed. Meanwhile, Taraji herself wore a tight-fitting hot pink number at a recent Empire event. On set, the two actresses stay far, far away from each other. Their real-life tension seems to be captured in their on-camera feud, which ended in a physical fight scene on the season finale. Howard has had his own issues with co-star Malik Yoba (Vernon Turner), who sources say was killed off in the season finale at Howard's urging. 'He never liked working opposite Malik because women just swoon over him. During promotional appearances and public events, women would go crazy over Malik because he's been a Hollywood stud for a long time. Gone: Howard has had issues with co-star Malik Yoba (Vernon Turner), who sources say was killed off on the season finale at Howard's urging . Favoritism: Oscar nominee Gabourey Sidibe (left) is also unhappy with her limited story line on Empire and blames it on Henson favoring Ta'Rhonda Jones, who plays Cookie's assistant Porsha . 'That drove Terrence crazy,' the source explained. Yoba was often frustrated that he had limited lines and knew that Howard was responsible for getting his camera time cut short. Oscar nominee Gabourey Sidibe is also unhappy with her limited storyline on Empire and blames it on Henson favoring Ta'Rhonda Jones, who plays Cookie's assistant Porsha. Sidibe, who joined Empire fresh off of American Horror Story, feels she's regulated to just running down the hall shouting one and two word lines to Howard's character Lucius. 'She enjoys working, but feels like she's grossly under utilized on this show. She made jokes that she'd wish they would kill her off in the finale on the set,' our source shared.

The poster for play, Bad Jews, which has been banned by London Underground . Adverts for a Jewish play which received five-star reviews in one of the religion's newspapers have been banned from the London Underground because they 'could cause offence'. Transport for London (TfL) decided that posters of Joshua Harmon's acclaimed production, Bad Jews, contravened its policy following an investigation by an advertising regulator. The poster for the comedy, which is about a family brought together after the death of their Holocaust-survivor grandfather, shows four characters in a quarrel on the floor. One complaint was made to the the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) during the play's first campaign, but the regulator concluded that the poster did not breach rules. However, TfL disagreed with the ASA's ruling and told the Evening Standard it would not clarify the precise reason for the rejection. A TfL spokesperson said in a statement: 'The advert "Bad Jews" was previously displayed on our network as our advertising contractor approved it without consulting us. 'It was subsequently submitted for display again and has been rejected as it contravened our advertising policy, which states that adverts will not be approved if they may cause widespread or serious offence.' Producer Danny Moar has blasted TfL's decision, saying it seemed like 'censorship', despite the play winning a five-star review for the Jewish Chronicle. He told the paper: 'Half the cast are Jewish, I'm Jewish, the writer is Jewish and the word "bad" in the title, in so far as it matters, doesn't mean "evil" — it means "non-observant".

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has warned against a quota-based system being used in the Premier League believing it will dilute the quality of the division. Football Association chairman Greg Dyke would like to see the number of home-grown players in top-flight squads increased from eight to 12, a move he feels will benefit the national team. Premier League chief executive Richard Scudamore claims clubs were told by Dyke at a meeting on Thursday that the FA could not impose the change. Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has spoken out against a quota-based system for home grown players . And Wenger believes those changes will not benefit the league or the national team. In an interview with beIN Sports, Wenger said: 'I believe that we are in the world of competition. Competition means who of you or me is the best one. We have to accept that. 'That means as well that the rules of the game must be structured to favour the best. Or we are not in a competition anymore. The Arsenal boss, on the bench at Newcastle before the international break, is against Greg Dyke's proposals . 'So we can say one of two things - we protect the mediocre or we produce the best players.' Wenger warned that similar schemes in other countries had led to young players becoming 'professional subs', not enhancing their development but downgrading the league standard. 'I give you two examples, he said. 'In Yugoslavia in the past they decided you had to play three players on the team sheet who were under 21. What happened? They became professional subs. It happened in France, too. FA chairman Greg Dyke would like to see at least 12 home-grown players in top-flight squads . 'Then they decided you had to play three players (aged) under 21 from the start. You know what happened? They subbed all three after five minutes.' Dyke's proposal to toughen up home-grown player rules has the backing of UEFA president Michel Platini, who hinted that he intends to follow suit.

A report detailing allegations of instances of rape and sexual assault inside Australia's Nauru detention centre has been labelled as 'very concerning' by Finance Minister Mathias Cormann. The 86-page review, released on Friday, included allegations of indecent and physical assault, as well as sexual harassment, at the offshore processing centre. 'The department has accepted all of the recommendations and all of the recommendations will be implemented,' Mr Cormann told Sky News on Saturday. However, Labor have criticised the Federal Government over its initial response to the report after Tony Abbott said these institutions 'aren't perfect.' SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO . A review into sexual abuse inside Australia's Nauru detention centre (pictured) has found evidence of rape, sexual assault and guards trading marijuana for sexual favours from female detainees . The ABC  reported that when Mr Abbott was first asked about his response to the report he appeared to dismiss its findings by responding 'occasionally, I dare say, things happen.' Labor's Immigration spokesperson Richard Marles called the Federal Government's response a 'disgrace' and believes Mr Abbott needs to take responsibility for the situation. 'The Moss review finds that the testimony of asylum seekers is convincing and it concludes that the degree of sexual assault within these detention facilities is being under-reported,' Mr Marles said in Melbourne. 'This is quite evidently shocking.' Prime Minister Abbott later said that the Government would adopt the 19 recommendations outlined in the review and called the findings 'very disturbing.' The independent review by former integrity commissioner Philip Moss was released on Friday and has uncovered several dozen cases with guards possibly trading drugs for 'sexual favours' on the Pacific island nation . Work has already begun on implementing the recommendations in cooperation with the Nauru government, service providers and the Australian Federal Police. The report also allegedly found evidence that guards traded marijuana for sexual favours from female detainees. The independent review was ordered by former immigration minister, Scott Morrison following earlier claims that children had been abused while in detention. Detainees had previously complained that two-minute showers were not long enough and had requested four minute showers instead. However when one woman asked if she could turn the water back on to wash shampoo out of her eyes, it's alleged in the review that a male guard said he would give her more time, if she showed him her naked body.

Finance Minister Mathias Cormann says the content of a review into allegations of abuse against asylum seekers on Nauru is 'very concerning . Mr Cormann would not be drawn on whether more media access should be allowed on the island in the wake of the report, but said he was concerned by its findings . One rape happened in a woman's tent, it's alleged. The woman subsequently asked for the incident to be kept quiet for fear of retaliation from other detainees.  She then changed her mind and asked for police to investigate, according to the report. The Nauruan Government then granted refugee status to the alleged perpetrator and he is now settled in the Nuaruan community, the report stated. The second female detainee reported that she had been raped by a 'contract service provider staff member', according to the report. She also did not report the incident due to cultural and religious reasons. In another instance, a female detainee told the review that a guard had allegedly offered to give her friend chewing gum and a lollipop if she allowed him to see her naked. On another occasion two female detainees recounted a time when a driver and his assistant turned the vehicle's headlights off and propositioned the women with an offer of cigarettes and chewing gum.

The daughter of a man on trial for murder in the 1979 disappearance of six-year-old Etan Patz testified Monday about her father's unusual behavior in an effort to show that he is mentally ill. Becky Hernandez, speaking publicly for the first time about the murder case against her father, Pedro Hernandez, said she wasn't allowed out with friends as a youngster unless she had a written invitation and two weeks' notice — and her father held her hand crossing the street until she was 14. The 25-year-old described how he would clean their Maple Shade, New Jersey, home profusely, the court heard, and cook dinner starting at 2 a.m. — the same food every night: chicken, rice and beans. She said the case has caused a huge strain on her life - preventing her from getting a masters degree because the looming criminal proceedings meant 'she couldn't concentrate'. Harrowing testimony: Becky Hernandez (pictured arriving in court today) said her father Pedro (right), who has been accused of killing six-year-old Etan Patz, said she wasn't allowed to go out with friends unless she had a written invitation and he would hold her hand while crossing the street until she was 14 years old . The defense is trying to show Pedro Hernandez's 2012 confession to choking the boy is a delusion. She told the court her father was hours early for everything and would not allow her to be home alone. He would sleep for hours during the day, rarely socialized and insisted on sitting in the same church pew every Sunday, she testified. She also said he saw shadowy figures, a lady in white, and one time said he awoke to find a bald man choking him who then disappeared. She'd come home to find him talking to himself. But they didn't call the doctors. 'We knew he wasn't well, and we didn't want to hurt his feelings,' she said. 'You know how children sometimes believe in something? That's the type of response we had. My mom always taught me that what he sees and what he believes is not what we have to see.' Hernandez said stress over her father's case prevented her from getting a master's degree. 'I was studying and every single time I had to take a test there was something related to my dad,' she said, choking up. 'I couldn't concentrate.' She began crying when asked if she loved her father despite his behavior. Support: Pictured with her attorney Harvey Fishbein (left) and mother Rosemary (right), she told the New York court how she couldn't get a masters degree as a result of the case because she 'couldn't concentrate' 'He's protective because he loves me,' she said. '...It's the little things that show that he cares. And that's why I love him.' The defendant had no visible reaction as his daughter testified, but he smiled as she walked by during a break. Earlier, he turned around to wave and smile at his wife, who was sitting in the benches. Assistant District Attorney Joan Illuzzi-Orbon on cross-examination sought to show Hernandez was strict and abusive and that he still tries to control her from prison. Pedro Hernandez made a stunning confession in 2012 to choking Etan in the basement of a convenience store where he worked, after police questioned him on a tip. Over the years, he told a prayer circle, a neighbor and his ex-wife that he had harmed a child in New York. At least five people testified about what he said during the trial. Family: Stanley Patz, father of Etan Patz, and his daughter Shira Patz, left, arrive at Manhattan Supreme Court for another day of testimony . Etan vanished on his way to school on May 25, 1979. His disappearance helped galvanize the modern-day missing children's movement; his picture was one of the first to appear on a milk carton. Over the years, the case bounced around between detectives and units and from local police to federal agents and back. There's been no physical evidence. During his confession, Hernandez told detectives that he tossed the boy's bag up onto a freezer in the basement of the convenience store. 'If the freezer is still there, the book bag should be there,' Hernandez told detectives. But the shop was closed and cleared out in the early 1980s, its contents tossed, and it's not clear whether police were present at the time. No body was ever found. Hernandez's attorneys are trying to show that his 2012 confession (left) to choking Etan (right) following his disappearance in 1979 is a delusion .

Becky Hernandez, 25, described how her father Pedro was controlling . Needed a written invitation to go out with friends and two weeks notice . Told court he held her hand while she crossed street until she was 14 . Defense is trying to prove her father's 2012 confession is a delusion .

But they didn't call the doctors. 'We knew he wasn't well, and we didn't want to hurt his feelings,' she said. 'You know how children sometimes believe in something? That's the type of response we had. My mom always taught me that what he sees and what he believes is not what we have to see.' Hernandez said stress over her father's case prevented her from getting a master's degree. 'I was studying and every single time I had to take a test there was something related to my dad,' she said, choking up. 'I couldn't concentrate.' She began crying when asked if she loved her father despite his behavior. Support: Pictured with her attorney Harvey Fishbein (left) and mother Rosemary (right), she told the New York court how she couldn't get a masters degree as a result of the case because she 'couldn't concentrate' 'He's protective because he loves me,' she said. '...It's the little things that show that he cares. And that's why I love him.' The defendant had no visible reaction as his daughter testified, but he smiled as she walked by during a break. Earlier, he turned around to wave and smile at his wife, who was sitting in the benches. Assistant District Attorney Joan Illuzzi-Orbon on cross-examination sought to show Hernandez was strict and abusive and that he still tries to control her from prison. Pedro Hernandez made a stunning confession in 2012 to choking Etan in the basement of a convenience store where he worked, after police questioned him on a tip. Over the years, he told a prayer circle, a neighbor and his ex-wife that he had harmed a child in New York. At least five people testified about what he said during the trial. Family: Stanley Patz, father of Etan Patz, and his daughter Shira Patz, left, arrive at Manhattan Supreme Court for another day of testimony . Etan vanished on his way to school on May 25, 1979. His disappearance helped galvanize the modern-day missing children's movement; his picture was one of the first to appear on a milk carton. Over the years, the case bounced around between detectives and units and from local police to federal agents and back. There's been no physical evidence. During his confession, Hernandez told detectives that he tossed the boy's bag up onto a freezer in the basement of the convenience store. 'If the freezer is still there, the book bag should be there,' Hernandez told detectives. But the shop was closed and cleared out in the early 1980s, its contents tossed, and it's not clear whether police were present at the time. No body was ever found.

As a famous soap star in her home country, Mexican First Lady Angelica Rivera must have felt right at home during one highlight of her trip to the UK. Last night the glamorous wife of President Enrique Pena Nieto was feted at Buckingham Palace and today she dropped in on another famous stately home - Downton Abbey - to meet the stars of the costume drama.

Sophie looked classic and elegant in a Prada coat that she wore for the first time on her 50th birthday in January. She teamed it with Bruce Oldfield high heeled courts, a Sophie Habsburg Design bag called Moneypenny in burgundy and a Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso watch.

The skills that come with lumberjack sports are traditionally left to big, burly men wielding axes and monstrous saws. But this is changing with women donning their 'lumberjill' boots and proving their place in the male dominated sports. Erin LaVoie from Washington has two world records and a multitude of wins under her belt but she insists her win at Sydney's Royal Easter show is one of the biggest. Scroll down for video .

On Sunday she won the Ladies Single Handed Sawing Championship that sees competitors slice through 300 milimetre logs with huge cross cut saws. 'The Easter show is one of the biggest competitions so it was a huge deal for me,' Erin told Daily Mail Australia. The 32-year-old also competed in the wood chop category which is usually her forte, but she says that she did not have a prime block of wood and this makes it much more difficult to carve up the log. Erin also competes in the wood chopping category . 'My fastest chop is 24 seconds and I have two world records in the underhand chop which are around 30 seconds,' she said. Whilst the quality of the piece of wood quality is the luck of the draw, the technique and equipment are not with top of the line axes costing up to $600. 'The axes and saws are not cheap, but they have to be top notch if you want to win,' Erin said. 'The maintenance of them is expensive too and you need to know where to go.' Women's prevalence in the sport is still scarce and many females must compete against males in order to be involved at all. 'I still compete against men in many competitions,' Erin said. 'It's obviously really tough as they can deliver so much power, but this means it's so much more rewarding when you win.' Women's involvement largely started with the Jack and Jill sawing division that sees a man and a woman working as a team to slice through the log. 'Mostly women get into it because their husbands need a partner for Jack and Jill so they train up their wives,' Erin said. 'But I do it because I love it and it's my thing.' Erin grew up with brothers and loved to do male things so when she noticed the lumberjack team training down the hall at her school, she signed up. After a short amount of time she was travelling and competing in various chopping and sawing competitions - and winning. Erin also competes against men and admits she loves the feeling of pride when she beats them . Her fastest woodchop is 24 seconds and she holds two world records in the underhand chop of 30 seconds . Although she owns a CrossFit gym in Washington, her training regime mostly consists of chopping and sawing logs in her backyard. 'I have a friend who is a logger, so that's super handy!' She said. The Royal Easter Show also contains a Junior Development Program for aspiring Lumberjacks to get involved. According to the ABC, 16-year-old Lucy Backhouse and her 13-year-old sister Kate are the only two females competing in this program. The sisters from New South Wales have gained quite a following and always get a large applause no matter how they place. 'It doesn't matter who comes first, we always get the biggest cheer because no girls do this sport,' Lucy said. It their mother, Wendy, three years battling with the Human Rights Commission for the sisters to be allowed to compete. 'A lot of people don't consider it a sport. But I like it because it is so different, it's a challenge and it takes stamina and technique,' Lucy said.

'Early goals or late goals but we need full power and must not forget the organisation and structure of the team,' he added. Disturbing stats lay behind the headline stat.

A vitriolic letter written by the future King Edward VIII in which he branded the French Canadians 'rotten' and 'the completest passengers' during a tour of the country has emerged 96 years later. The Prince of Wales - the eldest son of King George V and Queen Mary - could not hide his resentment towards the French Canadians in the private letter he penned on a visit to Quebec. In the letter written a few months after World War One to his mistress Freda Dudley Ward, the 25-year-old Edward expresses his disgust at their reluctance to support the British Empire. Resentment: The Prince of Wales, pictured in November 1919 during his tour of Canada, criticised the French Canadians in a private letter calling them 'shirkers in everything particularly in war' Contempt: The future King Edward VIII scoffed at the French Canadians during his royal tour (pictured here) Stinging: In the letters, Edward describes the French Canadians as 'mostly a rotten priest-ridden community' In the recently unearthed letter, he says: ''These bloody French Canadians. 'The whole thing is a very delicate, imperial and political question which I don't attempt to understand though I do know they are mostly a rotten priest-ridden community, who are the completest passengers and who won't do their bit in anything and of course the war!!' After catching a train for Toronto he wrote of how he was relieved to be leaving the French Canadians. He added: 'They really aren't worth all the trouble I've taken to be out of the way polite to them, as they are shirkers in everything particularly in war as they all voted against conscription.' The First World War divided Canada, with the French-speaking population accused of not doing enough to fight against the Germans. Later on in the letter to the married socialite, the Prince of Wales derided the attractiveness of the local women. He described one of his hostesses as 'pompous and interfering'. Detailing a formal dinner he had attended, he quipped: 'Few of the women are worth dancing with and far less are in any way attractive.' At another party at a yacht club, he complained how there were '100 very plain women' there. Disgust: Edward said the French Canadians 'really aren't worth all the trouble' as they are 'shirkers, particularly war as they all voted against conscription' - he is pictured here in Nova Scotia, Canada, in 1919 . French Canadians are a major North American ethnic group and Canadian citizens derived from the descendants of colonists from France who arrived in New France (Canada) in the 17th and 18th centuries. When war was declared in 1914, Canada automatically entered as it was part of the British Empire. But by 1917 French Canadians only made up 21,000 out of 432,000 men, despite making up one third of the Canadian population. The French Canadians opposed conscription as they felt that they had no real loyalty to either Britain or France. The six-page letter was written by the future King to married mother-of-two Mrs Dudley Ward, years before he gave up the throne in order to marry American divorcee Wallis Simpson. Then 23, the socialite was married to Liberal MP William Dudley Ward, who apparently turned a blind eye to the affair. The letter is due to be sold tomorrow by International Autograph Auctions (IAA) at Nottingham Racecourse. It is expected to fetch £1,200 when it goes under the hammer. Richard Davie, of IAA, said: 'The Prince of Wales was a very patriotic gentleman and was known for wearing his heart on his sleeve. 'He obviously would have attended lots of dinners and events in Canada and gave very polite and diplomatic speeches but this letter to someone he trusted very much reveals his real innermost thoughts. 'He still clearly felt troubled by the role played by the French Canadians in the Great War, feeling they shirked their responsibilities. 'I am quite sure he intended these thoughts to remain private and never expected them to become public at any time.' Edward abdicated in 1936 (pictured addressing the nation) so he could marry American Wallis Simpson . Edward was an army officer during the First World War. Although as heir to the throne he was prevented from fighting, he made a number of moral-boosting trips to the Western Front and was very popular with the troops. Edward was the Prince of Wales from 1911 until 1936 when he became King, a reign that only lasted 11 months when he abdicated so he could marry American Wallis Simpson. The Prime Minster and many others opposed the union because Wallis had already been divorced once and was in the process of divorcing her second husband, so the King chose to abdicate instead of giving up his lover. His younger brother George, who served in the Royal Navy during the war, succeeded Edward as King in 1936, the details of which are popularised in the film 'The King's Speech' starring Colin Firth.

A chip shop in the French skiing village of Val d'Isere has been forced to shut down after the former chairman of L'Oreal complained about the 'nauseating smell' of chips wafting up his luxury lodge. Sir Lindsay Owen-Jones - a Welsh-born Oxford graduate who stepped down as head of the cosmetics giant in 2006 - had demanded the eatery close because it was an 'olfactory nuisance'. The multimillionaire - who received an £83million pay-off upon leaving L'Oreal - said the smell of the mobile snack stall represented 'an abnormal disturbance' to his life in Val d'Isere, adding that he felt it had also decreased the value of his luxury ski lodge. Now a French court has demanded owner Valerie Maerten close the stall, despite her lawyer having argued that his client's livelihood is more important than the retired businessman's 'precious nostrils' over the course of seven years of legal wranglings. Wealthy: Sir Lindsay Owen-Jones (pictured with his wife Cristina) had demanded the Val d'Isere chip show cease business because it was an 'olfactory nuisance' A French court has now demanded that the chip shop owner Valerie Maerten close her popular stall . Sir Lindsay was finally successful in having the chip shop closed today, having previously launched six other legal cases demanding that it cease operating. When the legal action was launched six years ago, he and three wealthy neighbours demanded damages for a decrease in the value of their homes. His lawsuit argues that the stall, which is extremely popular with skiers who buy chips there throughout the day, produces 'a very important olfactory nuisance due to the cooking and frying odours that rise up into their flats and on to their balconies'. What's more, it adds, the stall spoils the 'view and exceptional tranquility' of the apartment, as there are 'numerous chairs… multi-coloured parasols, dustbins and vehicles' in front of it, the paper said. However, Ms Maerten's lawyer, Maitre Francois Bern, retorted that multi-millionaire Sir Lindsay, whose former company makes world-famous scents, is engaging in 'judicial harassment' to protect nostrils accustomed only to inhaling fine aromas. During the trial he added: 'This is a lawsuit brought by rich people who live in silk and comfort, who only inhale perfume and who want to stop this lady from living.' Lost cause: Over the course of seven years of legal wranglings, Valerie Maerten's lawyer argued that his client's livelihood is more important than the retired businessman's 'precious nostrils' Prestigious: Val d'Isere - the French Alps resort where the chip shop is based - attracts a well-heeled crowd . Sir Lindsay was finally successful in having the chip shop closed today, having previously launched six other legal cases demanding that it cease operating . Responding to the decision, Ms Maerten told WWD: 'I don’t know whether I will appeal the decision. This has been going on since 2008. I am financially and physically exhausted.' 'There’s been seven rulings, and they lost the first six, but not the last one,' she said, adding that the ruling has left her unemployed, although she confirmed that she has been given until the end of the current winter skiing system to wrap up the business. But she said that once the chip shop closes, it will be demolished within days. When the matter went to court in 2012, Ms Maertens said: 'I'm angry and I feel persecuted. For rich people, it's certain that a chip stall in front of them is going to be annoying but us, we have to work for a living. 'They complain about the noise and the smell of chips, but if you want peace and quiet, you don't buy an apartment at the foot of the slopes.' When Sir Lindsay took over L'Oreal's in the mid-1980s, annual sales were $3.7 billion, and when he stood down they were $14.5 billion. Much of the success was based on brilliant marketing, including slogans like 'Because You're Worth it'. As well as skiing, Sir Lindsay, who is now 68, is passionate about numerous sports including motor racing and sailing. He was knighted in 2005.

Despite the ever growing popularity of online dating, virtual platforms are no match for interactions in the real world when it comes to finding true love, a new Australian study has found. Almost half of all Aussies surveyed by ticketing company Eventbrite said they met their partner at a live event. One in three people said they'd exchanged phone numbers at an event with someone they fancied and one in ten said they'd fallen in love. The survey found the most common hooked-up hotspots were live sporting and music events, followed by business and networking events. Scroll down for video . The most common places to meet a potential life partner in Australia are sports and music events, followed by business and networking events, according to the EventBrite survey of 1000 Australians . Passions in common: Kari Vallury met her husband Trillock at a world music event. The couple married last year at Adelaide's WOMAD music festival surrounded by 170 family and friends. From a survey of 1,000 Australians commissioned by EventBrite: . 35% of people (1 in 3) exchanged numbers . 32% of people (1 in 3) kissed someone . 30% (1 in 3) Approached someone they fancied at an event . 24% of people (1 in 4) held hands with someone new at an event . 16% of people (1 in 6) slept with someone they met at an  event . 10% of people  (1 in 10) have fallen in love with someone they met at an event . 41% of people said 'None of these' Food and wine, educational and fundraising events also featured in the study as likely places to find that special someone. The odds might be encouraging for hopeful singles jaded by too many uninspiring online connections. Of the 100 survey respondents, 32 per cent, or one in three people, said they had exchanged a kiss with someone new at a live event. One in six people had slept with someone they met at an event and one in ten said they'd fallen in love. When it came to preferences between virtual dating and real-world romance, the real world won out by a long mile. 97 per cent of people surveyed said they'd prefer to initiate a conversation with someone they fancied than to 'like' a photo of them on social media (just 3 percent) and 93 per cent of people said they'd rather lock eyes with someone across a room for the first time than receive a friend request on Facebook. As things develop, 95 per cent of people said they'd rather introduce their new mate to their friends in person than post a 'selfie' with their date to social media. The vast majority of people (92 per cent) would rather introduce their new lover to their parents than change their relationship status on Facebook. 'No replacement for real life connections': 93 per cent of survey respondents said they'd rather lock eyes with someone across a room than receive a friend request from a love interest on Facebook . 'While more and more first time interactions are being formed via apps and social media, the study findings are resounding proof there is no replacement for real life connections in taking a possible love match to the next level,' said Laura Huddle, Head of Marketing at Eventbrite Australia. 'Live experiences of all shapes and sizes bring people together to celebrate their common interests and passions,' she says. 'Being in a place with like-minded people and similar interests encourages people to be open and live in the moment.' It was certainly true for South Australian couple Kari and Triloks Vallury, who met at a world music event at an Adelaide bar and, after 18 months together, decided to get hitched at the city's famous WOMAD music festival last year. 'We hoola hooped in the gardens:' Kari and Trillock Vallury met through their shared love of music and were married 18 months later at WOMAD . 'We both love WOMAD. The food and ambience is everything we would want at our wedding. Trilok suggested it as a joking idea at first, but I contacted them and within a few months we got married there!' says Kari. She says 170 family and friends celebrated their union with them at the festival and the best part was not having to organise entertainment. 'We did the ceremony as soon as the gates opened, before the music started. We then went to see several bands with a big following of guests, ate great food from the Womad vendors and hula hooped in the gardens.' With the Australian festival season in full swing, now could be the perfect time to get out there and find your perfect match.

New study says you could be looking in the wrong place if you're only looking for love online . The survey of 1000 Australians found 1 in 3 people exchanged phone numbers and kissed someone new at a live event . 1 in 10 people said they fell in love after meeting someone at an event . 93 per cent of people would rather lock eyes with someone across a room than receive a Facebook friend request from someone they fancied . The most common hook-up hotspots are sporting and music events .

The most common places to meet a potential life partner in Australia are sports and music events, followed by business and networking events, according to the EventBrite survey of 1000 Australians . Passions in common: Kari Vallury met her husband Trillock at a world music event. The couple married last year at Adelaide's WOMAD music festival surrounded by 170 family and friends. From a survey of 1,000 Australians commissioned by EventBrite: . 35% of people (1 in 3) exchanged numbers . 32% of people (1 in 3) kissed someone . 30% (1 in 3) Approached someone they fancied at an event . 24% of people (1 in 4) held hands with someone new at an event . 16% of people (1 in 6) slept with someone they met at an  event . 10% of people  (1 in 10) have fallen in love with someone they met at an event . 41% of people said 'None of these' Food and wine, educational and fundraising events also featured in the study as likely places to find that special someone. The odds might be encouraging for hopeful singles jaded by too many uninspiring online connections. Of the 100 survey respondents, 32 per cent, or one in three people, said they had exchanged a kiss with someone new at a live event. One in six people had slept with someone they met at an event and one in ten said they'd fallen in love. When it came to preferences between virtual dating and real-world romance, the real world won out by a long mile. 97 per cent of people surveyed said they'd prefer to initiate a conversation with someone they fancied than to 'like' a photo of them on social media (just 3 percent) and 93 per cent of people said they'd rather lock eyes with someone across a room for the first time than receive a friend request on Facebook. As things develop, 95 per cent of people said they'd rather introduce their new mate to their friends in person than post a 'selfie' with their date to social media. The vast majority of people (92 per cent) would rather introduce their new lover to their parents than change their relationship status on Facebook. 'No replacement for real life connections': 93 per cent of survey respondents said they'd rather lock eyes with someone across a room than receive a friend request from a love interest on Facebook . 'While more and more first time interactions are being formed via apps and social media, the study findings are resounding proof there is no replacement for real life connections in taking a possible love match to the next level,' said Laura Huddle, Head of Marketing at Eventbrite Australia. 'Live experiences of all shapes and sizes bring people together to celebrate their common interests and passions,' she says. 'Being in a place with like-minded people and similar interests encourages people to be open and live in the moment.' It was certainly true for South Australian couple Kari and Triloks Vallury, who met at a world music event at an Adelaide bar and, after 18 months together, decided to get hitched at the city's famous WOMAD music festival last year. 'We hoola hooped in the gardens:' Kari and Trillock Vallury met through their shared love of music and were married 18 months later at WOMAD . 'We both love WOMAD. The food and ambience is everything we would want at our wedding. Trilok suggested it as a joking idea at first, but I contacted them and within a few months we got married there!' says Kari. She says 170 family and friends celebrated their union with them at the festival and the best part was not having to organise entertainment. 'We did the ceremony as soon as the gates opened, before the music started. We then went to see several bands with a big following of guests, ate great food from the Womad vendors and hula hooped in the gardens.' With the Australian festival season in full swing, now could be the perfect time to get out there and find your perfect match. [/INST] New study says you could be looking in the wrong place if you're only looking for love online . The survey of 1000 Australians found 1 in 3 people exchanged phone numbers and kissed someone new at a live event . 1 in 10 people said they fell in love after meeting someone at an event . 93 per cent of people would rather lock eyes with someone across a room than receive a Facebook friend request from someone they fancied . The most common hook-up hotspots are sporting and music events . </s>

Two men will appear in court after allegations of racist chanting at St Pancras station following Chelsea's Champions League clash in Paris. Transport police issued photographs of seven men as part of their probe into the incident which is said to have taken place at around 8pm on February 18. Witnesses claimed a group of fans marched through the station hurling racist abuse and making racist chants. A group of men were at St Pancras International station when they reportedly engaged in racist chanting . Chelsea drew 1-1 with PSG when they met in Paris and PSG progressed on away goals after the second leg . This was the day after an incident on the Paris Metro before Chelsea's match with Paris St Germain when a black man was subjected to alleged racist abuse as he unsuccessfully tried to board a carriage. The two men identified in connection with the St Pancras allegations will appear before Westminster Magistrates in May. A spokesman for British Transport Police (BTP) said: 'Following a thorough investigation we have reported two 21-year-old men for summons in relation to offences of racially aggravated harassment. 'The men, who are from Mitcham and Worcester Park, will appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Monday, 11 May.' BTP say they are still investigating a separate incident in which a group of Chelsea supporters are alleged to have made racist chants on a train service from London Euston to Manchester Piccadilly following their side's Capital One Cup Final victory over Tottenham Hotspur on March 1.

An horrifically burned 12-year-old boy was able to tell police it was his dad who started the fatal house fire that killed him and his nine-year-old brother, an inquest has heard. Salesman Darren Sykes, 44, lured his two boys Paul, 9, and his brother Jack, 12, to the attic with fun-size chocolate bars to play with a new model railway then set a fire downstairs and closed the loft hatch with all three inside. The bodies of Mr Sykes and Paul were found in the loft and Jack was rescued still conscious by firefighters from the bottom of the loft ladder but died five days later in hospital. Jack managed to tell a police officer and hospital consultant before he died from 50 per cent burns: 'It was my dad that started the fire' and 'My dad did it on purpose.' The fire, which was started deliberately by Mr Sykes (centre), killed himself along with his nine-year-old son Paul (left) and Jack (right), 12 . Jack (right) and Paul Sykes were both killed in the house fire after being lured into the loft by their father who then set the home ablaze. Here the two boys are pictured with their mother Claire Throssell . Sheffield coroner Chris Dorries told the boys' tearful mother Claire Throssell: 'Your loss has deeply affected me.' He said she bore no blame for the tragedy and told her: 'You have nothing to blame yourself about.' The inquest heard Mr Sykes, worried over access rights to his children, 'coldly planned' the fire at his home 'with the specific purpose of ending two young lives'. Investigating officer Detective Sargent Stuart Hall said: 'I believe the children were almost lured into the loft by the newly purchased train track and fun-size chocolate bars which had been left there to maintain their attentions.' The inquest heard that Mr Sykes felt 'the world was against him' after a meeting with CAFCASS - which represents children in family courts two days before the tragedy. He formed the impression that Paul had said he only wanted to see his father for one hour a week during a discussion over visiting rights. Mr Sykes told his boss Andre Spencer in a phone call just over two hours before the inferno that he thought the CAFCASS visit was a 'waste of time' and 'they wanted to talk about negatives and didn't want to listen to his agenda'. Mr Spencer said: 'He was a dedicated father. His children were his number one priority. He talked about them to the point that he seemed obsessed and boring.' An inquest into the death of Paul (pictured bottom left and far right) and Jack was carried out today, where a coroner ruled their deaths were the result of an unlawful killing . Claire Throssell's son Jack clung to life in intensive care with his mother (pictured) at his bedside, but died five days later . He felt the access arrangements were 'barbaric' and he mistakenly believed Paul only wanted to see him for one hour a week. 'There's no point living,' he told his boss. Mr Spencer said he then went on: 'If anything did happen would I care for his boys.' CAFCASS family adviser Rona Murphy told the inquest in her dealings with the family Paul did want to see his father but only for a three-hour visit on one day a week. Paul had told her about 'issues of abuse' and described meal times as a 'battleground' because his dad 'wanted him to eat more and everything and he didn't want to.' She did not believe Mr Sykes was taking on board what she was telling him. 'He was saying how can I have any less contact than I already have.' Council social worker Julie Keen said four months before the tragedy she had a referral that Paul didn't want to go home from school and have contact with his father. The boys' heartbroken mother Claire Throssell (pictured at her sons' funeral) told the inquest her two children had 'meant the world' to her . 'Paul said his dad was abusive to him and Jack,' she said. 'It was general physical and emotional abuse. On a skiing trip Paul claimed his dad had got him by the throat.' When Mr Sykes was challenged he apologised for his behaviour but was more focused on getting around a table with his then wife. Mr Sykes, lived in Penistone, South Yorkshire, after the split with his wife and his sons lived with her at their grandmother's in nearby Thurlstone. On the morning of the fire he contacted an investment company and withdrew his assets, transferring them into a female third party's account. He spent £600 on model railway track and equipment and sent a text to both his sons asking them to attend the former family home that evening to play with the new train set and be 'engine drivers'. Mr Sykes then bought petrol cans, some petrol and posted letters to family and friends and deliberately parked his van away from his house so neighbours would not realise anyone was at home. He picked up his sons on the evening of October 22 last year to play with the model railway and while they went up to the loft, he set the fire. The inquest heard that after he had barricaded the door after lighting a fire in the bottom floor of the house, he then came out of the house through the patio doors and walked round to the front door, letting himself in and locking it behind him. He took the keys upstairs before lighting more fires on the first floor, including in the children's bedrooms. Once this was done he then entered the loft, closing the hatch behind him. When the fire crew arrived it appeared Jack had bravely tried to get out of the loft as he was found by the bottom of the ladder. Mourners stand by as the caskets of Jack and Paul are carried from a church during their funeral in October . Mr Sykes sent the same text to six separate people saying he was 'going to be at peace'. A minute later, neighbours spotted the blaze and the fire service were called with the downstairs well ablaze. Cord had been tied to the front and back garden gates as a barricade and a dining chair placed between the kitchen door and the door to the stairs so nobody could escape downstairs. One of his letters to HSBC Bank said: 'I won't be paying the mortgage any more because I won't be alive.' Det Sgt Hall said numerous statements taken by the police showed he was at a 'particularly low point' in his life over visiting rights to his sons and took the view he would have less access. Specialist fire investigator Michael Mason said the carpet and furniture downstairs were well alight when firefighters arrived. 'The door to the stairs had been wedged to stop anyone coming down and there were chairs behind the front door as if to prevent people coming in,' he said. Two bodies were found in the loft - that of Mr Sykes and his son Paul - and Mr Sykes was declared dead on arrival at hospital. Pictured is the home where Paul Skyes killed his two sons after trapping them in the attic and starting a fire . Petrol was used as an accelerant to start the fire with 16 pools of fuel on the ground floor and first floor. A patio door had been left partly open downstairs to fan the flames. Mr Mason said: 'At some point during the fire the loft hatch was closed and then opened during the fire which allowed a plume of smoke with gases to enter the loft. It was a natural reaction to try and get out.' It emerged that it was Jack who opened the hatch and he was rescued conscious by firefighters but died five days later in hospital from his burns. Mr Sykes and Paul died from inhaling noxious fumes. In her statement, the boys' mother said: 'My boys meant the world to me. They were both polite, well mannered and caring, and you can't imagine life without them.' When asked by the coroner if there was anything she would like to add, she replied: 'There is nothing further I can add other than the guilt I that I carry for what has happened to them.' The coroner recorded a verdict on Monday that Mr Sykes committed suicide. Yesterday the verdict on the two boys was unlawful killing. Coroner Dorries said: 'This fire was set deliberately indeed the whole event was carefully planned by Mr Sykes to ensure a catastrophic fire while the boys were distracted by model railway equipment and sweets.'

England forward Danny Welbeck is set for a 'great future' at Arsenal, but manager Arsene Wenger warned all his players their first duty is to serve the club - whether that is on the pitch or on the bench. Welbeck joined the Gunners on transfer deadline day from Manchester United, where he had become frustrated at a lack of opportunities in his preferred central striker role. Since the return to fitness and form of Olivier Giroud, who spent four months out with a broken leg, the 24-year-old has found himself deployed on the flank of a front three along with Alexis Sanchez, rather than down the middle. Danny Welbeck joined Arsenal from Manchester United last summer after growing frustrated at bit-part role . The striker was left on the bench for Wednesday's Premier League match against QPR . Welbeck was a late substitute for both of the previous two Barclays Premier League matches, but could face his former club in Monday night's FA Cup quarter-final at Old Trafford. Wenger is convinced Welbeck, who has seven Arsenal goals, can play a big part in the future of the team, but like everyone else has to earn their place in the starting XI. 'Danny Welbeck puts big team effort in, he plays very well for me and is an exceptional player who will have a great future here,' said Wenger, who confirmed centre-back Gabriel Paulista was set for 'two to three weeks' out with a hamstring injury suffered in the midweek Barclays Premier League win over QPR at Loftus Road. 'The subject is raised because he is a former Man United player, (but) I am very, very happy that I bought him.' Wenger continued: 'Welbeck is very important and has played many, many games since the start of the season. The England international was also absent from the starting line-up against Everton last Sunday . Arsene Wenger says Welbeck has a bright future at Arsenal but faces a lot of competition . 'His position is one of the three up front, central, left or right. He can play anywhere.' England forward Theo Walcott is another who has watched on from the bench in recent weeks, as Wenger finally enjoys the luxury of strength in depth. The Arsenal boss added: 'We have a lot of competition going on in the team, especially up front - we have plenty of offensive potential. It makes every decision more difficult. 'People always raise these kind of questions when (either) you do not have enough players, or when you do have enough players. '(However), we have chosen a job where competition is part of our job. That means we can't complain about that, because we have made that choice. 'Our job is to serve the club and to compete with other people to do as well as we can to serve the club. The 24-year-old could return to the side for Monday night's FA Cup clash against former side United . Wenger confirmed he will be without defender Gabriel for up to three weeks due to a hamstring injury . 'The only important thing is what the club achieves - all of us are only here for that.' Arsenal have a poor record at Old Trafford, not winning since September 2006 and suffering an 8-2 thumping there in August 2011. Wenger, though, sees no reason why the Gunners, who are ahead of United in the Premier League table, should not be able to produce the required performance this time around.

<s>[INST] England forward Danny Welbeck is set for a 'great future' at Arsenal, but manager Arsene Wenger warned all his players their first duty is to serve the club - whether that is on the pitch or on the bench. Welbeck joined the Gunners on transfer deadline day from Manchester United, where he had become frustrated at a lack of opportunities in his preferred central striker role. Since the return to fitness and form of Olivier Giroud, who spent four months out with a broken leg, the 24-year-old has found himself deployed on the flank of a front three along with Alexis Sanchez, rather than down the middle. Danny Welbeck joined Arsenal from Manchester United last summer after growing frustrated at bit-part role . The striker was left on the bench for Wednesday's Premier League match against QPR . Welbeck was a late substitute for both of the previous two Barclays Premier League matches, but could face his former club in Monday night's FA Cup quarter-final at Old Trafford. Wenger is convinced Welbeck, who has seven Arsenal goals, can play a big part in the future of the team, but like everyone else has to earn their place in the starting XI. 'Danny Welbeck puts big team effort in, he plays very well for me and is an exceptional player who will have a great future here,' said Wenger, who confirmed centre-back Gabriel Paulista was set for 'two to three weeks' out with a hamstring injury suffered in the midweek Barclays Premier League win over QPR at Loftus Road. 'The subject is raised because he is a former Man United player, (but) I am very, very happy that I bought him.' Wenger continued: 'Welbeck is very important and has played many, many games since the start of the season. The England international was also absent from the starting line-up against Everton last Sunday . Arsene Wenger says Welbeck has a bright future at Arsenal but faces a lot of competition . 'His position is one of the three up front, central, left or right. He can play anywhere.' England forward Theo Walcott is another who has watched on from the bench in recent weeks, as Wenger finally enjoys the luxury of strength in depth. The Arsenal boss added: 'We have a lot of competition going on in the team, especially up front - we have plenty of offensive potential. It makes every decision more difficult. 'People always raise these kind of questions when (either) you do not have enough players, or when you do have enough players. '(However), we have chosen a job where competition is part of our job. That means we can't complain about that, because we have made that choice. 'Our job is to serve the club and to compete with other people to do as well as we can to serve the club. The 24-year-old could return to the side for Monday night's FA Cup clash against former side United . Wenger confirmed he will be without defender Gabriel for up to three weeks due to a hamstring injury . 'The only important thing is what the club achieves - all of us are only here for that.' Arsenal have a poor record at Old Trafford, not winning since September 2006 and suffering an 8-2 thumping there in August 2011. Wenger, though, sees no reason why the Gunners, who are ahead of United in the Premier League table, should not be able to produce the required performance this time around. 'I don't believe too much in history, I just believe in the performance on the day,' he said. 'At the moment we are doing very well away from home. The size of the pitch is exactly the same everywhere, it is just down to how much we turn up and how much effort we put in to win the game. 'Both teams will think if we get over this hurdle, we have a good opportunity to win the competition.

One is an eminent scientist whose life story has been turned into an acclaimed film that has won actor Eddie Redmayne an Oscar. The other is a former self-employed businessman and father of three who enjoyed skiing, camping and hiking. But Professor Stephen Hawking and Steve Isaac both battle with motor neurone disease, a degenerative illness that has left them unable to move or speak. Steve Isaac, pictured with his son Fraser, was diagnosed with motor neurone disease in February 2010 . Mr Isaac, pictured on a holiday with wife Debbie, has revealed he wants to end his life on his own terms . The 56-year-old former businessman, from Hampshire, relies on a computer system to communicate . While professor Hawking, 73, has flourished despite his disability, writing the best-selling novel a Brief History of Time, Mr Isaac, 56, has reignited the debate on the right to die, telling a documentary he wants to end his life on his own terms. Mr Isaac, who lives in Hampshire, has already been rendered unable to speak by his degenerative condition and like Professor Hawking, he relies on a computer system to communicate. His works by moving a cursor with his eyes and blinking to type but doctors have told him his eyes could also give in to the disease, which causes paralysis, and Mr Isaac has made it clear that it is at this point he would not wish to continue living. For four years Mr Isaac allowed his filmmaker son Fraser, 24, to record his decline in order to raise awareness about the illness and the truth about the devastating impact it has had on his family. Mr Isaac, pictured with wife Debbie and son Fraser, has already been rendered unable to speak by his degenerative condition . Mr Isaac allowed his filmmaker son Fraser, 24, to record his decline in order to raise awareness about the illness and the truth about the devastating impact it has had on his family (pictured) Appearing in Channel 5’s Filming My Father: In Life and Death , Mr Isaac, tells the camera: ‘If I am no longer able to communicate, so as to express my opinion, and this is verified on two occasions, 48-hours apart, by two doctors, then I would wish for my ventilation to be stopped and to manage my peaceful death.’ His wife of 30 years, Debbie, 55, said the achievements of Professor Hawking, make it harder for others with the disease who are expected to cope just as well with the condition and flourish. After the film The Theory of Everything thrust the academic’s long life and success into the spotlight and won Redmayne, 33, an Academy Award for his portrayal of Hawking, Miss Isaac said people do not realise he is an ‘exceptional’ case. Mr Isaac is the latest in a long line of terminally ill patients who have demanded for the right to end their lives, most notably Debbie Purdy, who died in December last year at the age of 51 after a year of refusing food. Debbie, 55, said the achievements of Professor Hawking (pictured), make it harder for others with the disease who are expected to cope just as well with the condition and flourish . She lived with multiple sclerosis for almost two decades and was a vocal campaigner for the ‘right to die’. Under current laws in England, it is an offence to encourage or assist anyone to commit suicide. However, campaigners last night raised concerns that the programme could ‘normalise’ suicide for the disabled and said the focus should be on improving quality of life. A spokesman for Care Not Killing said: ‘We have deep concerns about this programme. It’s vital that we do not normalise, in any way, suicide as an option for those who are disabled. 'There are many people who are suffering from a whole raft of debilitating conditions who would be horrified at the suggestion that they should end their life. 'What we need to be doing is focussing on how we ensure he has the very best quality of life and doesn’t feel like he is becoming a financial or care burden on his family or on society as a whole.’ While Mrs Isaac does not want to lose her husband and the father of her three children – Carly, 27, and twins Fraser and Hannah – she supports his wish to choose when and how he dies. She told the Mail: ‘Steve should have what he wants. Either way I don’t like the idea of losing him but I believe strongly that it’s his life and he should have what he wants. You have all of these thoughts and emotions but at the end of the day it is down to him. ‘I can’t imagine what it will be like when we get to that but that’s what I believe. It’s his life and he should be able to choose. Mr Isaac is the latest in a long line of terminally ill patients who have demanded for the right to end their lives . The documentary follows Mr Isaac’s struggles from diagnosis in February 2010 to his decision to have a tracheotomy in August 2014, hoping it would allow him to live a further three years . The family say the aim of the documentary, broadcast next Wednesday, is to increase awareness of the disease . ‘The whole thing is quite surreal, having end of life conversations, but he’s open enough to talk about it and while he wants to live if he can’t communicate that’s the time he wants to end it. 'You don’t get any practice at this, you’re just in it. There’s no way out and no happy ending. We know we’re going to lose him but as to how, if he can’t communicate that’s the time.’ But it is not a decision that sits easily with the whole family and Fraser reveals his concerns to the camera. He said: ‘He says he wants to be switched off after he can’t communicate but I can’t actually imagine doing the tests and being like “can you respond?” How do you judge what communication is? ‘For him to be completely himself and alive and for us to say okay, bye dad, you can’t communicate, and just turning off the machines. That to me is the worst way to go.’ The family say the aim of the documentary is to increase awareness of the disease. Mrs Isaac claims the public view it largely through the lens of its most famous sufferer, Professor Hawking. However, as he was very young when he was diagnosed, it progresses much more slowly than usual. Even allowing for this, Professor Hawking’s longevity is remarkable. While Mrs Isaac does not want to lose her husband and the father of her three children – Carly, 27, and twins Fraser and Hannah – she supports his wish to choose when and how he dies . The impact the disease has had on Mr Isaac's family is laid bare in the documentary, to be broadcast on Wednesday . Mrs Isaac said: ‘People don’t understand at all. People might see a tiny touch of it but they are not there to witness it, it’s ghastly. It’s a disease people just don’t know about. They might know the name, they might know it through Stephen Hawking. 'I’m not medical but even I know he’s the exception to the rule. People look at him and probably think people with motor neurone disease will live a very long time. His is an extremely exceptional case.’ The impact the disease has had on his family is laid bare in the documentary, to be broadcast on Wednesday. It follows Mr Isaac’s struggles from diagnosis in February 2010 to his decision to have a tracheotomy in August 2014, hoping it would allow him to live a further three years. In the intimate footage, which lifts the lid on what it is really like to live with a motor neurone disease sufferer, Mrs Isaac talks candidly about the strain it has put on their family and relationship. She said: ‘It’s incredibly hard. I don’t want to be a widow and I don’t want to lose him but how much more can you cope with? ‘I’m really shocked. I thought, when he became ill we’d almost become closer and closer but almost it’s the opposite and I can’t believe that’s happened. I’m shocked that it draws people apart rather than together.’ Speaking about the tracheostomy she added: ‘I was thinking the other day, if it was my decision, not that it ever would be. 'It would be so hard to say no knowing that he wants it but really and truly, I think myself and the kids are just exhausted with the whole thing and he’s going to die, really, really sadly he’s going to die. 'Be it tonight or tomorrow or in a month or two months or a year. It’s just dragging out the inevitable. So if I had to say, I would say don’t do it.’ Filming My Father: In Life and Death (Verve Productions/Channel 5) will be broadcast on March 11 at 7pm on Channel 5.

Comedian Russell Brand has revealed his plans for a new chain of non-profit businesses which would boast their own currency. The left-wing activist was on the New Era council estate in Hoxton, east London, to open a new cafe today where he gave a speech - hours after he was voted one of the world's greatest thinkers. Brand said he will donate all money from the paperback sales of his book 'Revolution', to The Trew Cafe, which will be staffed by recovering addicts undergoing 'abstinence-based recovery'. Russell Brand spoke outside the Trew Era cafe, which opened today on the New Era council estate in Hoxton, east London . The left-wing activist told the 200-strong crowd that he plans to donate the money made from his book 'Revolution' towards the cafe . It is also on the site where he previously helped locals protesting against rent increases and possible eviction despite living in a £2million bachelor pad owned by a firm based in a tax haven. Speaking outside the cafe, which is named after the estate fused with his YouTube show, The Trews, he said: 'It is a model that is not for profit, a fully self-supporting, new economic enterprise.' He ambitiously claimed that he plans to set up more of these social enterprises, adding: 'Eventually we will trade with one another in our own currency. 'We are going to create our own systems, our own federations, our own currencies, our own authorities.' He was joined at the opening by several local residents including Lynsay Spiteri (right of Brand), Danielle Molinari (far right) and Lindsey Garrett (left) Brand claimed that he plans to set up more of these social enterprises which will trade in their own currency . The 39-year-old, who was joined by a crowd of 200 supporters, also accused mainstream political parties of abandoning people on inner city estates. 'As long as you have only got parties that are interested in causing division, hatred and representing big businesses, we will create our own systems,' he said. 'Politics is dead, this is the end of politics. What we are discussing is what comes after, something worse or something better.' He met with several residents today on the same site where he previously protested against rent increases and possible eviction . The stand-up act added that 'it is not a charity, it is a new business model', describing it as a place for local people to get together and eat food grown and made in the community. It came the day after he was named as the world's fourth greatest thinker by readers of intellectual magazine Prospect. The self-styled revolutionary beat the likes of Nobel peace prize winner Henry Kissinger and Booker prize recipient Hilary Mantel to make it into the top ten list of influential minds. In its latest edition, Prospect described Brand as 'the spiritual leader of Britain's disaffected anti-capitalist youth', but it has since faced backlash for including the anarchist on social media. Drayton Bird ‏wrote on Twitter: 'Beyond parody: if this wag is a great thinker, my vote goes to Peppa Pig.' Tim Walker added: 'A generation or so ago, Bertrand Russell was considered to be a great thinker. Now, comically, it's Russell Brand.' The television and radio presenter lost his BBC Radio 2 slot over prank calls to actor Andrew Sachs in 2008. Since then the millionaire attempted to re-brand himself as an anti-capitalist revolutionary, but it has been mired in doubt as celebrities including Simon Cowell accused him of hypocrisy. He accused the comedian of accepting large Hollywood film salaries whilst campaigning against the UK political system.

London Mayor Boris Johnson has hit out at the 'human rights' group who claimed Britain was to blame for Jihadi John's murderous actions. He tore into controversial campaigner Asim Qureshi today branding suggestions UK authorities caused the ISIS killer's radicalisation '100% the wrong way up'. The outspoken mayor then added: 'If you're a human rights group then you should be sticking up for the human rights of those who are being beheaded in Syria and northern Iraq.' Scroll down for video . London mayor Boris Johnson today hit back at the group who have blamed the radicalisation of Jihadi John on British security services . Mr Johnson (left) slammed prisoners' rights group Cage after the group's leader Asim Qureshi (right) called into his radio show and claimed security services may have made Jihadi John feel unwelcome in the UK . Prisoners rights group Cage held a press conference in which they called Mohammed Emwazi - unmasked as Jihadi John last week - 'a beautiful man' who was 'harassed' by British security services. After widespread condemnation of the group and their comments, the London Mayor took on Qureshi, the group's leader, today. Qureshi called into Mr Johnson's radio show on London's LBC radio this morning, claiming his defence of Emwazi had been 'unfairly represented'. But Mr Johnson refused to go back on his previous criticism of the group and slammed Mr Qureshi's claims. The Tory mayor said: 'I really, really think that the focus of your indignation and outrage should be at people who go out and join groups that throw gays off cliffs, that behead people who don't subscribe to their version of Islam, that glorify in the execution of innocent journalists and aid workers. 'They should be the object of your wrath, not the security services who are trying to keep us safe.' Families of the victims of ISIS killer Jihadi John (pictured) - unmasked last week as west Londoner Mohammed Emwazi - have also slammed Cage's comments, branding Emwazi 'a monster' Mr Johnson said the group's claims sent out the completely wrong message, adding: 'If you're going to have an impact on the lives of young Muslims you have to focus on what these people are doing wrong and not instantly scatter blame around.' But Mr Kureshi refused to change his line and replied: 'What we want is to understand whether or not, the security agencies, their actions led to [Emwasi] feeling that he did not belong to UK society.' Mr Johnson, who looked furious on a video of the broadcast filmed in the studio, replied: 'I just feel that you've got it 100% the wrong way up. You need to see this thing differently. 'The security services are trying to keep is safe. They cannot conceivably be blamed for their actions trying to prevent people from committing such atrocities.' Qureshi's group press conference last week was broadcast live for 52 minutes on the BBC and 58 on Sky News, with Qureshi speaking uninterrupted for 18 minutes. Mr Johnson is the latest politician to hit out at the perceived apologists for ISIS killers. In a statement to the Commons yesterday, Home Secretary Theresa May said: ‘I condemn anyone who attempts to excuse that barbarism in the way that has been done by Cage.’ The row came after a shocking press conference last week, at which Cage said Jihadi John was 'beautiful' And Jacqui Smith, a Labour former Home Secretary, added: ‘We can – and should – dismiss the outrageous apologists of Cage who claimed that Emwazi was just a good lad radicalised by the actions of western authorities.’ Families of the victim's of Jihadi John's killing spree have also attacked Cage's defence of the murderer. Reg Henning, brother of British aid worker Alan Henning who died at the ISIS executioner's hands, said: 'If he's a "beautiful, kind man", why is he killing innocent civilians? 'He's a monster. Everyone should be doing everything they can to capture him and bring him to justice - not stick up for him like he's been hard done by.' Qureshi previously urged protestors at a protest outside the US embassy to 'support the jihad of our brothers and sisters' in Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine and Chechnya'. Speaking through a microphone at the 2006 pan-Islamic Hizb ut-Tahrir movement rally, he said: 'When we see the example of our brothers and sisters fighting in Chechnya, Iraq, Palestine, Kashmir, Afghanistan, then we know where the example lies. Cage's comments last week has sparked a charity commission investigation into organisations, including the Joseph Rowntree trust and Body Shop founder Anita Roddick's Roddick Foundation, who fund the group. Qureshi appeared at a protest in 2006 at which he said Muslims were being oppressed by the West and called for support for jihad, shouting: 'Allahu Akhbar! Allahu Akhbar!'

<s>[INST] London Mayor Boris Johnson has hit out at the 'human rights' group who claimed Britain was to blame for Jihadi John's murderous actions. He tore into controversial campaigner Asim Qureshi today branding suggestions UK authorities caused the ISIS killer's radicalisation '100% the wrong way up'. The outspoken mayor then added: 'If you're a human rights group then you should be sticking up for the human rights of those who are being beheaded in Syria and northern Iraq.' Scroll down for video . London mayor Boris Johnson today hit back at the group who have blamed the radicalisation of Jihadi John on British security services . Mr Johnson (left) slammed prisoners' rights group Cage after the group's leader Asim Qureshi (right) called into his radio show and claimed security services may have made Jihadi John feel unwelcome in the UK . Prisoners rights group Cage held a press conference in which they called Mohammed Emwazi - unmasked as Jihadi John last week - 'a beautiful man' who was 'harassed' by British security services. After widespread condemnation of the group and their comments, the London Mayor took on Qureshi, the group's leader, today. Qureshi called into Mr Johnson's radio show on London's LBC radio this morning, claiming his defence of Emwazi had been 'unfairly represented'. But Mr Johnson refused to go back on his previous criticism of the group and slammed Mr Qureshi's claims. The Tory mayor said: 'I really, really think that the focus of your indignation and outrage should be at people who go out and join groups that throw gays off cliffs, that behead people who don't subscribe to their version of Islam, that glorify in the execution of innocent journalists and aid workers. 'They should be the object of your wrath, not the security services who are trying to keep us safe.' Families of the victims of ISIS killer Jihadi John (pictured) - unmasked last week as west Londoner Mohammed Emwazi - have also slammed Cage's comments, branding Emwazi 'a monster' Mr Johnson said the group's claims sent out the completely wrong message, adding: 'If you're going to have an impact on the lives of young Muslims you have to focus on what these people are doing wrong and not instantly scatter blame around.' But Mr Kureshi refused to change his line and replied: 'What we want is to understand whether or not, the security agencies, their actions led to [Emwasi] feeling that he did not belong to UK society.' Mr Johnson, who looked furious on a video of the broadcast filmed in the studio, replied: 'I just feel that you've got it 100% the wrong way up. You need to see this thing differently.

Sex crazed: Dr. Arthur Zilberstein's 'preoccupation with sexual matters' caused him to lose his license . A doctor has had his license suspended after bizarre, sexually-fueled behavior at work, says the state Department of Heath. Dr. Arthur Zilberstein's 'preoccupation with sexual matters' including using medical images for sexual gratification and having sexual encounters at his workplace led to his license being suspended by the Medical Commission on June 5, 2014. Seattle Pi reports that a subsequent hearing reviewing the charges led to the indefinite suspension. Zilberstein must undergo a mental and behavioral evaluation and pay a $5,000 fine. He will be able to peitition for the reinstatement of his medical license only after he completes the mandated evaluation and recommendations. The anesthesiologist, from Seattle, Washington, also allegedly sent explicit texts while performing C-sections and naked selfies to a patient at Swedish Medical Center where he worked. The charges said some of the pictures were 'depicting himself in hospital scrubs, wearing his hospital badge and exposing his genitals'. Washington state health authorities said 47-year-old Zilberstein repeatedly compromised patient safety between at least April 2013 and August 2013. Authorities accused Zilberstein, who has been in practice since 1995, of issuing at least 29 unauthorized prescriptions for controlled substances and other drugs. Anesthesiologist also allegedly sent texts while performing operations . The charges, filed with the state Medical Quality Assurance Commission, also allege that Zilberstein prescribed unauthorized narcotics to a female patient he had sex with, NBC News reported. On one day alone, June 17, 2013, he is accused of sending 64 texts, many just minutes apart, during seven surgeries, many of which had sexual innuendos. Inappropriate behavior: Dr. Arthur Zilbertstein, an anesthesiologist, allegedly sent explicit texts while performing C-sections and naked selfies to a patient at Swedish Medical Center where he worked . One read: 'I'm hella busy with C sections.' Another read: 'Oh. And my partner walked in as I was pulling up my scrubs. I'm pretty sure he caught me.' The charges state: 'Respondent's lack of focus on patient care while providing anesthesia services for hospital-based surgical procedures routinely fell below the standard of care and put patients at unreasonable risk of harm.' Zilberstein also demonstrated 'moral turpitude' that reflected badly on the medical profession. He was contracted through Physicians Anesthesia Services with Swedish Medical Center to provide care , NBC News reported. Hospital spokesman Clay Holtzman said: 'The safety of our patients is our number one priority. Once we learned that the state had suspended this physician's medical license, the physician's medical staff membership and privileges were immediately suspended. 'We just recently learned of these allegations and are conducting our own internal review of the physician, who is not directly employed by Swedish.' No longer employed: Dr. Arthur Zilbertstein is no longer employed at Swedish Medical Center in Seattle .

Conservatives say they are happier, but liberals show more cheer in smiles, word choice and even emoticon use, claims a new scientific study. Other researchers found fault with the study, which looked at how Democrats and Republicans differ in positive language in speeches entered into the Congressional Record, photos in the congressional directory, tweets by followers of the two different political parties, LinkedIn photos associated with advocacy groups, and answers to psychological satisfaction-with-life surveys. The scientists found Democrats in Congress and liberals in general used a statistically significant amount of more positive language and smiled more with their eyes in photographs, while conservatives self-reported more satisfaction with life, according to a study published in the peer-reviewed journal Science. Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-Calif. speaks during a news conference on Capitol Hill in Washington. Conservatives say they are happier, but liberals show more cheer in smiles, word choice and even emoticon use, claims a new scientific study. The researchers examined 18 years and 432 million words of speeches in the Congressional Record, concentrating on 2013. Democrats used 13.6 positive words for every negative and Republicans used 11.5 positive words per negative. 'We're not saying liberals are happier, they behave happier,' said study co-author Peter Ditto, a professor of psychology at the University of California Irvine. 'But conservatives report being happier.' Other studies have reported that conservatives tend to score higher on tests that rate how satisfied with life they are, but University of California Irvine graduate student Sean Wojcik, the study's lead author, decided to look deeper. He looked at other indicators of happiness: words and facial expressions. The researchers examined 18 years and 432 million words of speeches in the Congressional Record, concentrating on 2013. Democrats used 13.6 positive words for every negative and Republicans used 11.5 positive words per negative. That higher rate for liberals was apparent regardless of who controlled Congress or the White House, Ditto said. For a laughing Rep. Gerry Connolly, D-Va., this rings true: 'A lot of what seems to fuel Republican energy is anger-based. They're angry about Iran. They're angry about Obama. ... And you hear that on the floor constantly.' That's not the feeling at the office of Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-Calif., where a sign above the congressman's door reads 'Fighting for Freedom and Having Fun.' His spokesman Ken Grubbs said, 'A day at the office here ... is never without lots of laughs.' Political scientist Jack Pitney said the Wojcik study was so off kilter that it seemed to be a parody, adding 'I don't think too many people will take this seriously.' A professor at Claremont McKenna College, he had many questions about the way the study was conducted and said conservatives in general want less government so this would be reflected in the language they use when talking about government. One study team member, who initially wasn't told what the project was about, examined congressional portraits to rate their facial emotions, an accepted technique in psychology. Democrats and Republicans had similar smiles around the mouth, but the more telling features for happiness are the muscles around the eyes and there Democrats looked cheerier, Wojcik said. He also found more positive language — and emoticon use — in tweets from people who followed only Democratic Twitter accounts versus only Republican account followers. Rep. Gerald E. Connolly, D-Va., disagrees with his colleague on the other side Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-Calif., who spoke against H.R. 4278, the Ukraine Support Act, during the House Foreign Affairs Committee markup of the bill on Capitol Hill in Washington. For a laughing Rep. Gerry Connolly, D-Virginia, the study rings true. Several outside psychology experts told The Associated Press that while it was interesting, they didn't find the study convincing. They faulted some techniques, did not see a significant difference between the two ideologies' scores and they criticized the researchers for mixing long-term happiness in self-reporting with momentary good moods in pictures and language. 'The observed differences are quite small,' said Robert Emmons of the University of California at Davis. 'Happiness is the norm for both' Democrats and Republicans.

This time last season there was sudden hope for Manchester United, too. From the mist of poor football and modest results emerged a 3-0 home win against Olympiacos in the Champions League. Glimpses of what we presumed was the real United were seen once more. A win at West Ham followed in the Barclays Premier League but then the opposition hardened. Manchester City arrived at Old Trafford and took another huge chunk out of United’s credibility. It was a crushing loss for United from which they, and manager David Moyes, never recovered. Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal pictured during his press conference on Friday . Van Gaal recognises the rivalry between United and Liverpool is among the most fierce in football . Once again this weekend, United will attempt to build on something they hope will prove to be of substance. Last weekend’s surprising 3-0 dismantling of Tottenham Hotspur has lifted spirits for Louis van Gaal and his team, but once again opposition of real calibre threatens to cast a shadow across United’s new dawn. And this time it is the greatest foe of all. Liverpool. The very mention of their name is enough to harden a Mancunian stare. ‘They will always be our greatest rivals,’ Sir Alex Ferguson used to say. At Anfield on Sunday, Liverpool and United begin in earnest a fight not for a League title or European eminence but for respectability. A scuffle for a top-four place is one motivated certainly by money but more by old-fashioned pride. For United, to finish outside the Champions League places once again is unthinkable. If they really are to find the form they will need to see them through an uncomfortable run of fixtures between now and the season’s end, one feels it really needs to start here. Wayne Rooney (centre) and his United team-mates train ahead of the trip to Liverpool on Sunday . Van Gaal revealed that the United team chef has been helping his side prepare for their Premier League clash . Antonio Valencia and Radamel Falcao battle for the ball during training on Friday ahead of Liverpool . ‘The win (against Tottenham) means nothing if you lose the next one and Liverpool is not a ground where this club has won a lot,’ said Van Gaal. ‘If we show that form again in Liverpool then we are little bit further along. For our fans, it’s the enemy and it’s very important. ‘But the last time they lost in the league was against us. It was a long time ago so this will be very difficult.’ Liverpool have issues of their own to deal with between now and mid-May. Raheem Sterling’s contract stand-off will worry them while Steven Gerrard’s farewell from the club this summer needs to be handled properly. On the field, though, Liverpool have the better form. Monday night’s win at Swansea was a little fortuitous but Liverpool are now unbeaten in 21 domestic matches and if that’s not daunting enough, they play exactly the kind of football the modern United hate. ‘I have played their system,’ said Van Gaal. ‘It’s not new.’ Juan Mata scores against Liverpool during their 3-0 pummelling at Old Trafford in December . The last time Liverpool lost in the Premier League was at Old Trafford against United back in December . Mata (from left to right), Robin van Persie and Wayne Rooney celebrate during their 3-0 win over Liverpool . Van Persie celebrates scoring against Liverpool and United will hope they can do the same at Anfield . Nevertheless, while his own side currently tends to play football by numbers — methodical and at times predictable — Liverpool are more instinctive. Ironically, that was evident the last time Liverpool lost in the league, at Old Trafford back in December. The score was 3-0 to United that day but it was totally unrepresentative of the match pattern as their opponents began to use a three-man defensive line which manager Brendan Rodgers has stuck with ever since. ‘I was impressed that day,’ said Rodgers. ‘The result wasn’t great and we had criticism because we lost but I was pleased with how dynamic the team looked. ‘We looked fast again. That gave me the real confidence. I knew I needed to be radical because we were so far off from where we wanted to be. It’s about putting in place something the players can fully believe in.’ United manager Van Gaal will have to be on guard against an in-form Liverpool unbeaten in 2015 in the league . Liverpool play quickly and love to go on the counter-attack, which Van Gaal will have to prepare his team for . Liverpool, as we know, play quickly, love to counter and have the kind of midfield runners who trouble earnest but limited defensive midfield players such as United’s Daley Blind. If United are to profit on Sunday they must hope to take their opportunities and defend resolutely. It can be done, of course. For all Liverpool’s attacking prowess, they can have days when they hit brick walls, days when the timing is out. Rodgers still has not fathomed a Plan B and it’s worth noting that for all the plaudits which followed Liverpool’s recent win at home to Manchester City, both goals came from distance. United do generally defend well and their goalkeeper remains on form. The save David de Gea produced from Santi Cazorla towards the end of United’s FA Cup defeat at home to Arsenal 11 days ago was testimony to that. United goalkeeper David de Gea has been in fine form for Van Gaal in the Premier League this year . Liverpool must find their way past an in-form De Gea if they are to get revenge for their 3-0 defeat . A year ago, good goalkeeping was not enough to help United mask their deficiencies. As it turned out, their victory over Olympiacos was little more than a shaft of light during a season that resembled a nine-month eclipse. This time we still don’t know which way they are heading. On Friday night, Van Gaal suggested Sunday will not be definitive. ‘The fight will last until the end,’ he said. If it does, given their fixture list, the United manager will have done very well indeed.

Manchester City arrived at Old Trafford and took another huge chunk out of United’s credibility. It was a crushing loss for United from which they, and manager David Moyes, never recovered. Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal pictured during his press conference on Friday . Van Gaal recognises the rivalry between United and Liverpool is among the most fierce in football . Once again this weekend, United will attempt to build on something they hope will prove to be of substance. Last weekend’s surprising 3-0 dismantling of Tottenham Hotspur has lifted spirits for Louis van Gaal and his team, but once again opposition of real calibre threatens to cast a shadow across United’s new dawn. And this time it is the greatest foe of all. Liverpool. The very mention of their name is enough to harden a Mancunian stare. ‘They will always be our greatest rivals,’ Sir Alex Ferguson used to say. At Anfield on Sunday, Liverpool and United begin in earnest a fight not for a League title or European eminence but for respectability. A scuffle for a top-four place is one motivated certainly by money but more by old-fashioned pride. For United, to finish outside the Champions League places once again is unthinkable. If they really are to find the form they will need to see them through an uncomfortable run of fixtures between now and the season’s end, one feels it really needs to start here. Wayne Rooney (centre) and his United team-mates train ahead of the trip to Liverpool on Sunday . Van Gaal revealed that the United team chef has been helping his side prepare for their Premier League clash . Antonio Valencia and Radamel Falcao battle for the ball during training on Friday ahead of Liverpool . ‘The win (against Tottenham) means nothing if you lose the next one and Liverpool is not a ground where this club has won a lot,’ said Van Gaal. ‘If we show that form again in Liverpool then we are little bit further along. For our fans, it’s the enemy and it’s very important. ‘But the last time they lost in the league was against us. It was a long time ago so this will be very difficult.’ Liverpool have issues of their own to deal with between now and mid-May. Raheem Sterling’s contract stand-off will worry them while Steven Gerrard’s farewell from the club this summer needs to be handled properly. On the field, though, Liverpool have the better form. Monday night’s win at Swansea was a little fortuitous but Liverpool are now unbeaten in 21 domestic matches and if that’s not daunting enough, they play exactly the kind of football the modern United hate. ‘I have played their system,’ said Van Gaal. ‘It’s not new.’ Juan Mata scores against Liverpool during their 3-0 pummelling at Old Trafford in December . The last time Liverpool lost in the Premier League was at Old Trafford against United back in December . Mata (from left to right), Robin van Persie and Wayne Rooney celebrate during their 3-0 win over Liverpool . Van Persie celebrates scoring against Liverpool and United will hope they can do the same at Anfield . Nevertheless, while his own side currently tends to play football by numbers — methodical and at times predictable — Liverpool are more instinctive. Ironically, that was evident the last time Liverpool lost in the league, at Old Trafford back in December. The score was 3-0 to United that day but it was totally unrepresentative of the match pattern as their opponents began to use a three-man defensive line which manager Brendan Rodgers has stuck with ever since. ‘I was impressed that day,’ said Rodgers. ‘The result wasn’t great and we had criticism because we lost but I was pleased with how dynamic the team looked. ‘We looked fast again. That gave me the real confidence. I knew I needed to be radical because we were so far off from where we wanted to be. It’s about putting in place something the players can fully believe in.’ United manager Van Gaal will have to be on guard against an in-form Liverpool unbeaten in 2015 in the league . Liverpool play quickly and love to go on the counter-attack, which Van Gaal will have to prepare his team for . Liverpool, as we know, play quickly, love to counter and have the kind of midfield runners who trouble earnest but limited defensive midfield players such as United’s Daley Blind. If United are to profit on Sunday they must hope to take their opportunities and defend resolutely. It can be done, of course. For all Liverpool’s attacking prowess, they can have days when they hit brick walls, days when the timing is out. Rodgers still has not fathomed a Plan B and it’s worth noting that for all the plaudits which followed Liverpool’s recent win at home to Manchester City, both goals came from distance. United do generally defend well and their goalkeeper remains on form. The save David de Gea produced from Santi Cazorla towards the end of United’s FA Cup defeat at home to Arsenal 11 days ago was testimony to that. United goalkeeper David de Gea has been in fine form for Van Gaal in the Premier League this year . Liverpool must find their way past an in-form De Gea if they are to get revenge for their 3-0 defeat . A year ago, good goalkeeping was not enough to help United mask their deficiencies. As it turned out, their victory over Olympiacos was little more than a shaft of light during a season that resembled a nine-month eclipse. This time we still don’t know which way they are heading. On Friday night, Van Gaal suggested Sunday will not be definitive. ‘The fight will last until the end,’ he said. If it does, given their fixture list, the United manager will have done very well indeed. [/INST] Manchester United face Liverpool in the Premier League on Sunday .

Alex Salmond was ridiculed last night after he boasted of becoming Westminster’s king- maker while quaffing pink champagn . Alex Salmond was ridiculed last night after he boasted of becoming Westminster’s king- maker while quaffing pink champagne and saying that he ‘identifies’ with Nelson Mandela. Seemingly still unable to come to terms with his referendum defeat, the former First Minister continued to overshadow his successor Nicola Sturgeon with a self-regarding interview for New Statesman magazine. Before a vote has even been cast in the General Election, he predicted the stars will be in ‘alignment’ for his triumphant return to Westminster as power broker, and vowed to crowbar Ed Miliband into No 10. Mr Salmond also said he would make it impossible for David Cameron to govern if the Conservative leader fails to secure a majority in May’s election. Last night, Tory MSP Alex Johnstone said: ‘Nicola Sturgeon must wish that Alex Salmond would just shut up.’ Earlier this year, Miss Sturgeon slapped down her predecessor by insisting that she would lead any post-election negotiations at Westminster. But Mr Salmond continued to publicise his plans yesterday, claiming he would join forces with Labour to ‘lock out’ the Tories by voting down any attempt by Mr Cameron to pass a Queen’s Speech. Scottish Labour Party chairman Jamie Glackin said: ‘You’d be forgiven for thinking he was still leader of the SNP.’ The New Statesman article reveals how, during the interview in London, Mr Salmond ordered pink champagne to toast the launch of his widely mocked referendum diaries, accompanying it with fish, chips and mushy peas. Asked by the magazine which ‘historical figure’ he identified with, he replied: ‘Nelson Mandela. Everybody of my generation would say that.’ Mr Johnstone said: ‘Alex Salmond is fast becoming a figure of ridicule. This bizarre comment suggests that the former First Minister has unhinged himself from reality completely.’ The Tory MSP said the interview was ‘yet more evidence that Alex Salmond is a backseat driver, with Nicola Sturgeon looking on from Edinburgh wondering where the car is going’. Tory MSP Alex Johnstone (right) said new SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon (left) 'must wish that Alex Salmond would just shut up' Scottish Labour director of policy Blair McDougall said: ‘Pink champagne? Lah-di-dah! I’m sure the First Minister is really relaxed about Salmond’s boozy lunches with London journalists.’ Tory sources last night said that Mr Salmond’s comments showed the SNP was prepared to ‘sabotage’ the outcome of the election in order to put Labour leader Mr Miliband in Downing Street. Senior Tories are considering plans to run a minority government if the Conservatives emerge as the largest party in a hung parliament. But Mr Salmond said the (Fixed-term) Parliaments Act, which was passed by the Coalition, meant that the SNP could put Labour into power even if the Conservatives win more seats. He said the SNP – on course for an election landslide in Scotland – would not contemplate any deal with the Tories. Asked about the prospect of a minority Tory government, Mr Salmond replied: ‘The Tories would have to go straight effectively for a vote of confidence, usually the Queen’s Speech, although it could be otherwise, of course, and we’d be voting against. Salmond on… ordering pink champagne: . ‘To toast my book.’ Salmond on… which historical figure he ‘identifies’ with: . ‘Nelson Mandela.’ Salmond on… his recent weight gain: . ‘I’m about to go back on my diet.’ Salmond on… a second referendum on independence: . ‘It’s not a question of if, but when.’ Salmond on…. the number of Nationalist MPs elected in May: . ‘We will win a barrel-load.’ Salmond on… the SNP’s 2011 election landslide: . ‘It’s happening again.’ Salmond on… his referendum defeat: . ‘I’ve no doubt that Gordon Brown saved the day for No.’ Salmond on… his return to Westminster: . ‘I think the stars might be in alignment. I wouldn’t come to Westminster to make up the numbers.’ Salmond on… Tories in the Commons he admires today: . ‘I don’t really know them… William Hague.’ Salmond on… immigration: . ‘Does Scotland need more people? Yes.’ Source: The New Statesman . ‘So if Labour joins us in that pledge, then that’s Cameron locked out. And then under the (Fixed-term) Parliaments Act that Westminster passed but nobody seems to have read, you’d then have a two-week period to form another government – and of course you want to form another government because this might be people’s only chance to form another government.’ He said it was a ‘fib’ spread by Labour that the party with the most seats automatically won the right to try to form a government – pointing out that Labour’s first government in 1924 was formed after it came second. A spokesman for the Conservatives said: ‘Alex Salmond has confirmed he would sabotage the democratic will of the British people in order to make Ed Miliband prime minister. ‘That would mean chaos for Britain, with weak Ed Miliband dancing to Alex Salmond’s tune. The only way to protect Trident, keep Britain together and safeguard the economy is to vote Conservative.’ The former leader of the SNP said he indentifies with former South African president and anti-apartheid revolutionary Nelson Mandela (pictured) Mr Miliband moved to quell Labour panic in Scotland last week by ruling out a formal coalition with the SNP. But the UK Labour leader has refused to rule out a looser power-sharing deal. The SNP has made it clear it would extract a ruinously high price in return for propping up Mr Miliband in office, including £180billion of extra borrowing, ditching Britain’s Trident nuclear deterrent and insisting on sweeping new powers for the Scottish parliament that would leave the country reliant on dwindling North Sea oil revenues. Mr Salmond said the SNP would amend any Labour budget to introduce ‘progressive tax rises’ – likely to raise fears of big tax hikes for the middle classes. He also dismissed Labour suggestions it would not cut a deal with the SNP. He said the party would face a stark choice between doing a deal with the SNP, or allowing Mr Cameron to stay on as Prime Minister. Mr Salmond is favourite to win the Lib Dem-held seat of Gordon at the election. He is likely to return to Westminster as the effective head of the largest ever grouping of Nationalist MPs. He has also predicted that his party will oust both Labour’s election co-ordinator Douglas Alexander and the Lib Dem Chief Secretary to the Treasury Danny Alexander from their Scottish constituencies.

Salmond on… ordering pink champagne: . ‘To toast my book.’ Salmond on… which historical figure he ‘identifies’ with: . ‘Nelson Mandela.’ Salmond on… his recent weight gain: . ‘I’m about to go back on my diet.’ Salmond on… a second referendum on independence: . ‘It’s not a question of if, but when.’ Salmond on…. the number of Nationalist MPs elected in May: . ‘We will win a barrel-load.’ Salmond on… the SNP’s 2011 election landslide: . ‘It’s happening again.’ Salmond on… his referendum defeat: . ‘I’ve no doubt that Gordon Brown saved the day for No.’ Salmond on… his return to Westminster: . ‘I think the stars might be in alignment. I wouldn’t come to Westminster to make up the numbers.’ Salmond on… Tories in the Commons he admires today: . ‘I don’t really know them… William Hague.’ Salmond on… immigration: . ‘Does Scotland need more people? Yes.’ Source: The New Statesman . ‘So if Labour joins us in that pledge, then that’s Cameron locked out. And then under the (Fixed-term) Parliaments Act that Westminster passed but nobody seems to have read, you’d then have a two-week period to form another government – and of course you want to form another government because this might be people’s only chance to form another government.’ He said it was a ‘fib’ spread by Labour that the party with the most seats automatically won the right to try to form a government – pointing out that Labour’s first government in 1924 was formed after it came second. A spokesman for the Conservatives said: ‘Alex Salmond has confirmed he would sabotage the democratic will of the British people in order to make Ed Miliband prime minister. ‘That would mean chaos for Britain, with weak Ed Miliband dancing to Alex Salmond’s tune. The only way to protect Trident, keep Britain together and safeguard the economy is to vote Conservative.’ The former leader of the SNP said he indentifies with former South African president and anti-apartheid revolutionary Nelson Mandela (pictured) Mr Miliband moved to quell Labour panic in Scotland last week by ruling out a formal coalition with the SNP. But the UK Labour leader has refused to rule out a looser power-sharing deal. The SNP has made it clear it would extract a ruinously high price in return for propping up Mr Miliband in office, including £180billion of extra borrowing, ditching Britain’s Trident nuclear deterrent and insisting on sweeping new powers for the Scottish parliament that would leave the country reliant on dwindling North Sea oil revenues. Mr Salmond said the SNP would amend any Labour budget to introduce ‘progressive tax rises’ – likely to raise fears of big tax hikes for the middle classes. He also dismissed Labour suggestions it would not cut a deal with the SNP. He said the party would face a stark choice between doing a deal with the SNP, or allowing Mr Cameron to stay on as Prime Minister. Mr Salmond is favourite to win the Lib Dem-held seat of Gordon at the election. He is likely to return to Westminster as the effective head of the largest ever grouping of Nationalist MPs. He has also predicted that his party will oust both Labour’s election co-ordinator Douglas Alexander and the Lib Dem Chief Secretary to the Treasury Danny Alexander from their Scottish constituencies.

(CNN)Smoking Man, time to light another cigarette. Fox announced Tuesday that "The X-Files," the series about the paranormal that ran for nine seasons in the '90s and early '00s, is returning for a special six-episode "event." Stars David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson are both back to play Fox Mulder and Dana Scully, those FBI agents who always got a little too close to the truth. " 'The X-Files' was not only a seminal show for both the studio and the network, it was a worldwide phenomenon that shaped pop culture -- yet remained a true gem for the legions of fans who embraced it from the beginning. We're ecstatic to give them the next thrilling chapter of Mulder and Scully they've been waiting for," Fox executives Dana Walden and Gary Newman said in a statement. Anderson wasted no time in tweeting the news. "The X-Files" concerned Mulder, an FBI agent who believes in paranormal phenomena, and Scully, who served as a check on his impulses. The series produced some memorable characters -- particularly the Smoking Man, a key focal point of the series' various conspiracy theories -- and resulted in two movies. Vince Gilligan, who later created "Breaking Bad," got his start on "The X-Files" and occasionally paid tribute to the show on his later series. Show creator Chris Carter, who will also oversee the new series, said he thought of the hiatus between 2002, when the "X-Files" went off the air, and this year as "a 13-year commercial break." But the timing is perfect, he added in a statement. "The good news is the world has only gotten that much stranger, a perfect time to tell these six stories," he said. No premiere date was announced.

A Premier League footballer's son was one of two boys expelled from a leading public school after they allegedly stabbed 15 other pupils with a used needle, causing an HIV scare. The pair, both 14, were dismissed from the school in south England after claims they found a used diabetes pen, which normally tests levels of glucose in the blood, belonging to a pupil before attacking their classmates with it. School authorities alerted the police and public health officials, who recommended that the students be tested for Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C and HIV, it is claimed. Fifteen pupils at a leading public school have been tested for HIV after they were allegedly stabbed with a needle used by diabetics to test the level of glucose in the blood by two 14-year-old pupils . The father of one of the expelled pupils is a star with one of the country's top football clubs, according toThe Sun. The shocking incident happened last month when the teenagers jabbed their classmates in a prank gone wrong. They used the needle of the diabetes pen, believed to have been left behind by someone with the condition, which is usually used to test levels of glucose in the blood. Teachers immediately called the police and public health officials, with affected students undergoing emergency tests. The police took no further action but the boys were expelled. A spokesman for the school said: 'We can confirm that an incident took place at the school last month involving a diabetic testing pen. 'The incident was extremely concerning and as soon as we became aware of it all parents of pupils involved were contacted immediately and given the advice received from public health experts. 'While the risk of infection was low or negligible, children affected were advised to have blood tests all of which proved negative.'

An Egyptian widow lived her life as a man for 43 years so she could earn enough money to support her children and grandchildren, it has been revealed. Sisa Abu Daooh, 65, was six months pregnant with her first child and living in a highly conservative community in the city of Luxor when her husband died. Unable to support her family as a 21-year-old single mother and unwilling to marry a man she didn't love, Abu Daooh decided to shave her head, dress herself as a man and seek employment - first as a brick-maker and then as a shoe-shiner once she got older. Scroll down for video . Most devoted mother: Over the weekend Sisa Abu Daooh, 65, (left) even met Egypt's president, Abdel Fattah al-Sisi (right) to receive an award marking 40- years of self-sacrifice .

Free from the threat of sexual harassment, Abu Daooh enjoyed her life as a man so much that even though she has now revealed her true gender, she says she will continue to spend the rest of her life living and dressing as a man. 'My brothers wanted me to get married again...all the time they kept bringing new grooms to me,' she told Gulf News Egypt. However Abu Daooh decided she could not marry somebody she didn't love and set about shaving her head and purchasing loose-fitting male clothing in order to become the breadwinner herself. The decision shocked and angered her family, but Abu Daooh ignored their pleas to remarry and instead set herself up as a brick-maker. By her own account she was as 'strong as 10 men' in her 20s and 30s, but as she got older her strength began to fade and she started a new business, this time as a shoe-shiner.

It was the only way to make money. What else could I do? I can't read or write - my family didn't send me to school - so this was the only way,' she said. She had initially planned to give up the disguise as soon as her daughter married, but unfortunately her son in law fell seriously ill shortly after the wedding and was unable to seek employment. As time went by she grew to enjoy spending time around men and drinking at the local male-dominated cafes without suffering she kind of sexual harassment she claims she would have experienced if she was living openly as a woman. Despite this, Abu Daooh says she never actually lied about her gender and never denied being a woman if she was asked. She also says that a large number of people in Luxor always knew she was a woman and called her by a feminine name - and that the disguise was largely to avoid attracting abuse or prejudice from strangers or people who did not know her well.

The mother of a one-year-old Maryland boy found dead inside a backpack in an Ohio creek pleaded guilty Friday to involuntary manslaughter and evidence tampering. Dainesha Stevens, 25, is trying to take responsibility for her own inaction when a male friend of hers beat 14-month-old Cameron Beckford, according to her defense lawyer Mark Collins. The man, who has not been charged,was trying to rid the toddler of demons, the lawyer said. Scroll down for video . Mother Dainesha Stevens, 25, pleaded guilty Friday to involuntary manslaughter and evidence tampering . Fourteen-month-old Cameron Beckford was found dead in Big Walnut Creek in Columbus, Ohio in 2014 . The little boy wasn't found until New Year's Eve, but he was badly beaten on Christmas and left the next day . The man believed Cameron had demons and beating him was the only way to get rid of them, Collins said. Stevens agreed to cooperate and be truthful in any proceedings against that man, who is expected to be indicted and face prosecution in Franklin County, Collins said. Collins said: 'It was the first step for her taking responsibility for her inactions... and not doing more to protect her child.' She also has a seven-year-old daughter named Cheyenne. The father of Stevens' two children reported them missing after she had fled to Columbus in mid-December to stay with her friend Kurt Flood. Stevens may receive a 12-year prison sentence . Columbus police found Cameron's body on December 31 in Big Walnut Creek. Flood was held on an unrelated misdemeanor charge after the body was found and has not been charged in relation to the child's death at this time. The coroner said the boy had bruises on his lower back, kidneys and lungs, and bruises and scarring on his buttocks. His mother initially told police she left the boy on a stranger's porch but later changed her story, directing police to the creek and providing more information about the man who had beaten her children. The man injured the toddler on December 25, and when Stevens found the boy unresponsive the following day, they put his body in the bag and left it in the water nearby, Collins said. The prosecution and defense are recommending a 12-year prison sentence for Stevens, whose sentencing is scheduled July 23. She would be eligible to seek judicial release after nine years if she has no problems in prison, Collins said. Cheyenne also reported being beaten by the man and is now back in Maryland with her father.

Now that's a bear hug! The adorable moment a mother bear races up to her cub to give it a loving embrace was captured in an incredible series of images, taken by Canadian nature photographer Marc Latremouille. In slow motion the brown bear - which weighs around 400 pounds - is pictured running towards its fearless baby, as it stands ready and waiting to meet its mum. Scroll down for video . The mother bear charges towards her cub at high speed. The two had become separated when the younger had gone to chase gulls in the water . As the mother beer approaches, splashing water as she goes, her adventurous baby stands firm waiting to meet her . Mother and baby meet, in a loving moment captured in a series of extraordinary images by Canadian photographer Marc Latremouille . The baby bear is nearly lifted off the ground by the strength of the hug as mother and cub come together in the Lake Clark National Park in Alaska . I'll race you! Two baby brown bears play in the water of the Lake Clark National Park. Rangers there have recorded 219 bears living in a 50-mile radius, making the area one of biggest homes to brown bears in the world . The heart-warming pictures are part of a series of photographs taken when Marc, 47, travelled to the Lake Clark National Park, based in Alaska. The others show a pair of cute cubs play-fighting, racing together and hunting for clams at the salt marshes. They later sit in the grasslands to relax. Marc explained how he took the incredible sequence of pictures of a mother bear charging at its young. Watch where you're going! The baby brown cub's claws covers its mother's eyes, as it's nearly knocked off its feet by the 400-pound bear . Close-up: The cub snuggles into its mother for protection in a loving bear hug. Photographer Marc Latremouille said being so close to the creatures was 'nerve-racking' but enjoyable... once he realised they didn't want to eat him . Two bears run through the water at the national park in Alaska, described on its website as a 'land of stunning beauty' 'I was photographing mother bear and two spring cubs digging for razor clams in the mud flats,' he said. 'As we all know, little ones are always curious and playful, and this particular cub decided it was playtime and started chasing gulls for fun. 'Moments later, the mother realised that one of her cub was way too far from her. The mother bear guides her two young cubs and keeps them close to her side. Photographer Marc Latremouille, who shot the images, said they had been digging for clams in the mud .

<s>[INST] Now that's a bear hug! The adorable moment a mother bear races up to her cub to give it a loving embrace was captured in an incredible series of images, taken by Canadian nature photographer Marc Latremouille. In slow motion the brown bear - which weighs around 400 pounds - is pictured running towards its fearless baby, as it stands ready and waiting to meet its mum. Scroll down for video .

(CNN)Michael Graves, an American architect and designer, died Thursday at his home in Princeton, New Jersey, of natural causes, according to his firm. The award-winning architect died "suddenly and peacefully" from natural causes, according to a statement from Michael Graves Architecture and Design. He was 80. Graves was one of the most revered contemporary architects, known for his postmodern designs, and won hundreds of prizes in his field. He started his practice in 1964, which designed over 400 buildings worldwide. Architecture critics hailed him as one of the original American voices in architecture as he has designed hundreds of buildings for corporations, governments, foundations and universities. Among his noted works are The Portland Building in Oregon, The Humana Building in Louisville, Kentucky, the NCAA Hall of Champions in Indiana, and the Team Disney building in Burbank, California. He has been praised for making buildings functional as well as aesthetically pleasing. For many Americans, Graves might be best known as the designer of household items. One of his best known designs was the Alessi stainless steel teakettle with a red bird at the tip that sang when water had boiled. Graves helped propel Target and its collaborations with designers to massive popularity. His line for Target included practical items from tea kettles and drying racks to whimsical kitchen equipment like an avocado scooper and large bamboo salad tongs. His Target line came with a simple, idealistic premise: "Good design should be affordable to all." His designs were also sold at JCPenney and Black & Decker. He was awarded the National Medal of the Arts, as well as the Driehaus Prize for Classical Architecture. Born in Indianapolis, Graves received his training at the University of Cincinnati and Harvard. In 1962, he began teaching at Princeton University. In 2003, Graves became paralyzed from the chest down after suffering what started out as a sinus infection. Graves recalled being severely ill and examining the ugly sheets and bad design in hospitals. He decided: "It's far too ugly for me to die here." The illness phased in a new chapter in his life. Struggling in hospital rooms made him determined to improve health care facilities and designs, including more user-friendly hospital furniture for patients. "I wouldn't have been a health care nut if it hadn't been for my paralysis, so something good came from this," he told CNN in 2011. Michael Graves: Why hospital rooms don't work . Throughout his illness, Graves continued to sketch. "Whether I was paralyzed or not, I would draw, because drawing for me is like playing the piano," he told CNN. "You've got to keep practicing, got to keep doing it. It's not that you lose it, but you don't draw as well if you don't draw every day."

(CNN)Sorry, Spotify, but it appears Taylor Swift has found someone else to fill that "Blank Space." Billboard reports that most of Swift's albums are streaming on TIDAL, the music service recently purchased by Jay Z via his S. Carter Enterprises. In November, Swift refused to allow from Spotify to stream her new album "1989" and pulled the rest of her catalog from the site. The singer has been outspoken about her beliefs that the current state of the music industry is making it hard for artists (Spotify reportedly pays between $.006 and $.0084 per stream) and has endorsed the buying and selling of digital and physical albums rather than streaming. Taylor Swift pulls her music from Spotify . Music sales have declined sharply in the past few years, and in July, Swift wrote an opinion piece for The Wall Street Journal about the future of the music industry in which she touched on the issue. Customers "are buying only the (albums) that hit them like an arrow through the heart or have made them feel strong or allowed them to feel like they really aren't alone in feeling so alone," she wrote. "It isn't as easy today as it was 20 years ago to have a multiplatinum-selling album, and as artists, that should challenge and motivate us." Spotify CEO Daniel Ek responded in a blog post to the singer/songwriter's decision to deny her music to his 40 million-plus customers. His company was not the enemy, he said. "Spotify has paid more than two billion dollars to labels, publishers and collecting societies for distribution to songwriters and recording artists," Ek wrote. "When I hear stories about artists and songwriters who say they've seen little or no money from streaming and are naturally angry and frustrated, I'm really frustrated too. The music industry is changing -- and we're proud of our part in that change -- but lots of problems that have plagued the industry since its inception continue to exist." In January, Jay Z's company bid more than $56 million for TIDAL, which is billing itself as "the first music streaming service that combines the best High Fidelity sound quality, High Definition music videos and expertly Curated Editorial." It's available in the U.S. and UK for $19.99 a month. According to Billboard, Swift's "1989" album, which was the biggest seller of 2014, is not currently on TIDAL. But it does include new releases like Kendrick Lamar's "To Pimp a Butterfly" and Modest Mouse's "Strangers to Ourselves."

Tech experts, analysts and customers alike have bemoaned Apple's Watch for needing an iPhone to have any real use. But the firm has since confirmed the device will ship with 8GB of storage, and at least 2GB of this will be free for music and photos. Although this is the equivalent to just 240 songs, it does mean the timepiece can be used independently for certain tasks. Scroll down for video . Apple has confirmed that all three models of its Watch will ship with 8GB of storage, and at least 2GB will be free for music and photos. Although this is the equivalent to just 240 songs, it does mean the timepiece (pictured) can be used independently for certain tasks. The remaining storage will be used for apps and iOS . The number of tracks it can store will also vary depending on the file sizes. Apple confirmed the storage rumours to fan site 9to5Mac but the company has not responded to MailOnline's request for more information. All three models of the watch will ship with 8GB of total storage. This will be used to run the Watch's iOS software and apps. To put this into perspective, the entry-level iPhone 5C came with 8GB of storage when it launched in 2013 and rival smartwatches typically only have 4GB built-in. Apple will then let users store 2GB of music and 75MB of photos on the Watch as well. This music limit is the same as what the firm offers on its iPod Shuffle. The photo limit equates to around 100 images. To put this into perspective, the entry-level iPhone 5C came with 8GB of storage when it launched in 2013, and rival smartwatches typically only have 4GB built-in. Users can additionally store 75MB images, or 100 photos. The music limit is the same as what the firm offers on its iPod Shuffle (pictured) Apple's Watch is available in three models: the Watch, Watch Sport and Watch Edition (shown) and all models will be sold in 1.4-inch (38mm) or 1.7-inch (42mm) versions. Apple Watch is made of stainless steel, Sport is made of Aluminum and the premium Edition comes in 18-Karat Rose Gold and Yellow Gold . This music feature will appeal to runners and cyclists in particular who will be able to use the health features of the watch while exercising and listen to music without having to take their phone out with them. The features of the Apple Watch rely heavily on pairing it with an iPhone. To connect to a phone it either has to be within Bluetooth range or connected to the same Wi-Fi network. It can't take photos because it doesn't have a built-in camera but it can be used to view pictures in the Photo Stream. With a phone: . 1. Use the phone's network to browse the web . 2. Make and receive calls . 3. Send and receive messages . 4. See notifications . 5. Use any installed app including Uber, Shazam and more . Without a phone: . 1. Tell the time . 2. Track steps using the built-in accelerometer . 3. Pay for goods using Apple Pay . 4. Dictate messages to be sent once the phone is connected . 5. Play up to 2GB of songs . Although they will still need to wear Bluetooth headphones. The low photo limit may be because Apple doesn't want wearers to use the device for looking at pictures. The Watch is meant to be a companion device and the photos will be more visible on the larger screen of an iPhone and iPad. It comes in three models: the Apple Watch, Apple Watch Sport and Apple Watch Edition, and all models are sold in either 1.4-inch (38mm) or 1.7-inch (42mm) versions. It has been designed to be tethered to an iPhone and the pair communicate over Bluetooth and Wi-Fi which gives the Watch added computing power. But this relationship means that as soon as the iPhone is out of the equation, the Watch has limited value. The Watch also falls short of its rival’s Samsung Gear S that has an optional nano SIM card slot. The Apple Watch is made of stainless steel and prices range between $549 and $1048 for the 1.4-inch model and $599 and $1099 for the larger 1.7-inch version. Watch Sport is made of 7000 Series Silver Aluminum and ranges from $349 to $399. The premium Edition has a similar build to the Apple Watch but comes in 18-Karat Rose Gold and Yellow Gold. Prices start at $10,000. In the UK, the Sport starts at £299, the standard Watch starts at £479 and the Edition model will cost from £8,000. This music feature will appeal to runners and cyclists in particular who will be able to use the health features of the watch (example app pictured) while exercising and listen to music without having to take their phone out with them. Although they will still need to wear Bluetooth headphones . Reviews of the Apple Watch have mostly been positive but while some have said it’s the best smartwatch on the market, the biggest criticism have been its lack of independent features - so this storage option will be a welcomed addition. Ernest Doku, technology expert at uSwitch.com told MailOnline: ‘The Apple reveal finally answered all of our questions on pricing and availability, but the all-important "why" remained elusive. ‘Apple is asking us to pay for a level of technical craftsmanship and prestige - but this is unchartered territory and Apple is stepping into one of the few arenas where it’s still outclassed.’ But Stephen Ebbett from Protect Your Bubble added: ‘Sales will be driven by the novelty factor as well as the draw of brand Apple. Plus it has an exceptional track record. ‘Apple made us buy into the tablet in our millions when sceptics questioned whether there’d be enough demand. There’s no reason it can’t do the same again.’

<s>[INST] Tech experts, analysts and customers alike have bemoaned Apple's Watch for needing an iPhone to have any real use. But the firm has since confirmed the device will ship with 8GB of storage, and at least 2GB of this will be free for music and photos. Although this is the equivalent to just 240 songs, it does mean the timepiece can be used independently for certain tasks. Scroll down for video . Apple has confirmed that all three models of its Watch will ship with 8GB of storage, and at least 2GB will be free for music and photos. Although this is the equivalent to just 240 songs, it does mean the timepiece (pictured) can be used independently for certain tasks. The remaining storage will be used for apps and iOS . The number of tracks it can store will also vary depending on the file sizes. Apple confirmed the storage rumours to fan site 9to5Mac but the company has not responded to MailOnline's request for more information. All three models of the watch will ship with 8GB of total storage. This will be used to run the Watch's iOS software and apps. To put this into perspective, the entry-level iPhone 5C came with 8GB of storage when it launched in 2013 and rival smartwatches typically only have 4GB built-in. Apple will then let users store 2GB of music and 75MB of photos on the Watch as well. This music limit is the same as what the firm offers on its iPod Shuffle. The photo limit equates to around 100 images. To put this into perspective, the entry-level iPhone 5C came with 8GB of storage when it launched in 2013, and rival smartwatches typically only have 4GB built-in. Users can additionally store 75MB images, or 100 photos. The music limit is the same as what the firm offers on its iPod Shuffle (pictured) Apple's Watch is available in three models: the Watch, Watch Sport and Watch Edition (shown) and all models will be sold in 1.4-inch (38mm) or 1.7-inch (42mm) versions. Apple Watch is made of stainless steel, Sport is made of Aluminum and the premium Edition comes in 18-Karat Rose Gold and Yellow Gold . This music feature will appeal to runners and cyclists in particular who will be able to use the health features of the watch while exercising and listen to music without having to take their phone out with them. The features of the Apple Watch rely heavily on pairing it with an iPhone. To connect to a phone it either has to be within Bluetooth range or connected to the same Wi-Fi network. It can't take photos because it doesn't have a built-in camera but it can be used to view pictures in the Photo Stream. With a phone: . 1. Use the phone's network to browse the web . 2. Make and receive calls . 3. Send and receive messages . 4. See notifications . 5. Use any installed app including Uber, Shazam and more . Without a phone: . 1. Tell the time . 2. Track steps using the built-in accelerometer . 3. Pay for goods using Apple Pay . 4. Dictate messages to be sent once the phone is connected . 5. Play up to 2GB of songs . Although they will still need to wear Bluetooth headphones. The low photo limit may be because Apple doesn't want wearers to use the device for looking at pictures. The Watch is meant to be a companion device and the photos will be more visible on the larger screen of an iPhone and iPad. It comes in three models: the Apple Watch, Apple Watch Sport and Apple Watch Edition, and all models are sold in either 1.4-inch (38mm) or 1.7-inch (42mm) versions. It has been designed to be tethered to an iPhone and the pair communicate over Bluetooth and Wi-Fi which gives the Watch added computing power. But this relationship means that as soon as the iPhone is out of the equation, the Watch has limited value. The Watch also falls short of its rival’s Samsung Gear S that has an optional nano SIM card slot. The Apple Watch is made of stainless steel and prices range between $549 and $1048 for the 1.4-inch model and $599 and $1099 for the larger 1.7-inch version. Watch Sport is made of 7000 Series Silver Aluminum and ranges from $349 to $399. The premium Edition has a similar build to the Apple Watch but comes in 18-Karat Rose Gold and Yellow Gold. Prices start at $10,000. In the UK, the Sport starts at £299, the standard Watch starts at £479 and the Edition model will cost from £8,000. This music feature will appeal to runners and cyclists in particular who will be able to use the health features of the watch (example app pictured) while exercising and listen to music without having to take their phone out with them. Although they will still need to wear Bluetooth headphones . Reviews of the Apple Watch have mostly been positive but while some have said it’s the best smartwatch on the market, the biggest criticism have been its lack of independent features - so this storage option will be a welcomed addition. Ernest Doku, technology expert at uSwitch.com told MailOnline: ‘The Apple reveal finally answered all of our questions on pricing and availability, but the all-important "why" remained elusive. ‘Apple is asking us to pay for a level of technical craftsmanship and prestige - but this is unchartered territory and Apple is stepping into one of the few arenas where it’s still outclassed.’ But Stephen Ebbett from Protect Your Bubble added: ‘Sales will be driven by the novelty factor as well as the draw of brand Apple. Plus it has an exceptional track record. ‘Apple made us buy into the tablet in our millions when sceptics questioned whether there’d be enough demand. There’s no reason it can’t do the same again.’ [/INST] Apple has confirmed all models of its Watch will ship with 8GB of storage .

It was hugs all round and a few curtsies too when the Netherlands' King Willem-Alexander and Queen Maxima arrived in Denmark this morning. Waiting at Copenhagen's Kastrup Airport was the Scandinavian country's 74-year-old monarch, Queen Margrethe, her husband Prince Henrik, 80 and their son Crown Prince Frederik, 46. But Maxima, glamorous in a grey coat by Dutch designer Claes Iversen, had serious competition in the style stakes from Australian-born Crown Princess Mary, 43, who was elegant in a nude coat and purple pillbox hat. Scroll down for video . Sweeping a curtsey: Crown Princess Mary of Denmark curtsies to Queen Maxima at Kastrup Airport . Royal welcome: A beaming King Willem-Alexander steps off the plane to be greeted by Queen Margrethe . Like the 43-year-old Dutch Queen, mother-of-four Mary chose Louboutins for the occasion and even managed to sweep a low curtsey, despite the teetering height of the heels. Also on hand to welcome the Dutch royals at Kastrup Airport's private royal terminal were other members of the Danish Royal Family, among them Frederik's younger brother Joachim. 45-year-old Joachim's French wife Princess Marie was also there and wore an ensemble that echoed her sister-in-law's. Queen Margrethe, who along with Queen Elizabeth II, is one of the world's only Queens Regnant, then led the way out of the airport, escorted by King Willem-Alexander. The Dutch royals are at the start of a three-day state visit to Denmark, aimed at strengthening links between the two countries. Unsurprisingly, the programme is a busy one, with Maxima and Willem-Alexander set to criss-cross the country over the next couple of days. Hand-in-hand: Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary were at Kastrup to greet the Dutch royals . Poised: The Crown Prince couple appeared ready for action as the Dutch plane touched down . Welcome: The Danish royals gather on the red carpet to welcome their Dutch counterparts . Red carpet treatment: Mary curtsies to King Willem-Alexander while Prince Joachim (right) waits in line . Today includes a lunch with Danish Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt, a glamorous blonde who is married to Stephen Kinnock, son of British politician Neil. Afterwards, the royal couple will travel north to Aalborg in North Jutland where they will attend a conference at the city's university before flying back to Copenhagen for a reception at the Christiansborg Palace. Tomorrow will see them visit the carbon-neutral Samsø island, accompanied by Crown Prince Frederik and his wife Mary, to visit a special type of Danish boarding school called an efterskole. Most Danish teenagers spend at least a year at the state boarding schools, where they are encouraged to focus on specific interests such as music. The efterskole on Samsø focuses on aquatic sports, diving, aviation and golf, with pupils due to give the royal party, among them sport-mad Frederik, a tour of the school. Warm embrace: Mary shares a hug with the Netherlands' popular Queen Maxima . State visit: Maxima and Willem-Alexander are at the start of the three-day state visit to Denmark . On their way: Queen Margrethe prepares to show King Willem-Alexander his Danish honour guard . Inspecting the troops: The Dutch royals inspected their Danish honour guard before leaving the airport . Frederik and Mary have suffered a bumpy few months, thanks to a film about the Crown Prince's playboy past that is set to be screened later this year. A second programme, this time being made for Australia's Channel Ten, could also cause some discomfort, thanks to claims that Mary had had second thoughts in the run-up to her 2004 wedding. By contrast, Queen Maxima and King Willem-Alexander have enjoyed a smooth ride of late, with Maxima in particular becoming increasingly popular. One of the most glamorous royals in Europe, the Argentina-born mother-of-three has proved a hit with her Dutch subjects, thanks in no small part to her charity work. She will have plenty of opportunity to do more of that during this week's state visit, with a trip to Bispebjerg Hospital also on their itinerary. Arrival: The Dutch royal couple were whisked off to Fredensborg Palace for a private meeting . All smiles: 43-year-old Queen Maxima appeared to be on cheerful form as the visit began .

The singer-songwriter behind the rock anthem Spirit in the Sky is in critical condition in a California hospital after a car accident that left a motorcyclist dead. Norman Greenbaum, 72, was the passenger of a Subaru Outback driving near the city of Santa Rosa on Saturday around 3.30pm. A motorcycle crashed into the Outback at an intersection after the driver, Bonita Perea, 63, failed to yield to the motorcycle when turning. Scroll down for video . Greenbaum, 72, was in a Subaru Outback on Saturday during a deadly accident in Santa Rosa, California . The woman driving the Outback failed to yield at an intersection and a motorcycle slammed into the vehicle . Ihab Usama Halaweh, 20, crashed into the sedan after he was unable to stop his 2004 Suzuki GSX-R600,and died at the scene, the Santa Rosa Press-Democrat reported. California Highway Patrol Officer Matt Pinheiro said: 'There's no stop [at the intersection], but the Subaru driver was supposed to yield to oncoming traffic and they didn't.' His passenger, Nhmia Mekonnen Kahsay, 20, was seriously injured. Kahsay and Greenbaum were both brought to Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital and were listed in critical condition on Sunday afternoon. The hospital is not releasing any further updates about the musician's condition and said his family has requested privacy. Greeenbaum's hit song sold two million singles for Warner Brother in 1969 and 1970. The tune, which has an iconic opening guitar riff, has been featured in almost 50 films like Apollo 13 and in ads for Gatorade, Nike and American Express. It was also included in Rock Band 2.

Hospital spokeswoman Vanessa DeGier said Kahsay was being treated in the intensive care unit and that his vital signs were unstable. She said: 'Critical condition means the patient may also be unconscious. 'Indicators are unfavorable at the moment.' Perea was not injured during the accident, but she was upset after the crash. Santa Rosa Fire Battalion Chief Jack Piccinini said: 'She's very shaken by the whole incident.' Investigators do not believe that alcohol or drugs were factors in the accident. The investigation into the crash could take weeks. It is unclear how fast the motorcycle was going at the time of the accident.

As Gareth Bale's season at Real Madrid continues to turn sour, the former Tottenham forward is continually being linked with a move away from the Bernabeu. Manchester United and Chelsea have both been credited with having an interest in bringing the world's most expensive player back to the Premier League. Sportsmail asked Chelsea fan Cody Taylor of 90min.com to give his thoughts about a possible switch to the champions elect. Gareth Bale has been criticised by supporters for his performances at Real Madrid this season . Bale performs his trademark celebration as he scored twice during Wales' 3-0 win against Israel on Saturday . Gareth Bale could be available this summer if various transfer reports are to be believed, so naturally Chelsea are being linked with an eye-watering bid - but we have to ask ourselves the question, is he necessary? On the face of it Bale is a good player. At Tottenham he dragged an average team out of hole after hole, but it's easy to be a big fish in small pond. As he's found out in Spain it's much harder in the big pond and that's what it will be like at Chelsea too. Overall he's not had the impact that the world's most expensive player should. There are plenty who would give up everything to have him, but we really don't need to be wasting time on a player that won't be a noticeable improvement, or even fit. Bale holds his hands to his head after Real Madrid were beaten by Barcelona 2-1 in La Liga . Bale leads the wild celebrations after he nets his second of the game against Israel in the Euro 2016 qualifier . Even with his array of qualities, for the money, Bale just isn't worth it. As good a player as he is, he wasn't worth the world record £86m Real paid for him in 2013, after what was effectively only one explosive season. He still isn't worth the £75m that the Spanish giants will allegedly settle for now. There's simply no room for him at Chelsea. Jose Mourinho already has a plethora of young, similarly able attacking players. Willian is not as glamorous as the rest, but even he is a crucial part of the team and the fans love him. The Brazilian doesn't score as many goals or provide as many assists as others, but he is the one above all else that never stops working hard and that type of attitude and passion is more important than everything. Bale reacts with disbelief after having a goal disallowed during the Clasico on March 22 . After the defeat by Barcelona Gareth Bale's car was attacked by angry aupporters . If Bale arrives he is unlikely to do the same and it would negatively change the whole balance of the side which Mourinho has worked hard to build. There is also Juan Cuadrado to think about. The Colombian hasn't shown anything like his best since arriving in January and isn't likely to before the end of the season. He is still settling in and just needs a bit more time before fans will eventually see the player that lit up last summer's World Cup. There's absolutely no point replacing someone before they've even started. Bale is being linked with move back to the England with Manchester United and Chelsea reportedly interested . The former Tottenham player attends an event with with young Jewish and Arab children in Israel on Sunday . Even just a few games away from claiming a well-deserved Premier League title though, any Chelsea fan claiming there is no need to improve with summer additions is a fool. The season has been far from flawless, but the key areas that need strengthening are defensive. If big money is to be spent it has to be used to address real issues, not bringing in additional unnecessary luxury. We are more in need of a centre-back, maybe a full-back, Paul Pogba even, but certainly not Bale. Mourinho has the good sense to see that and Bale in blue is highly unlikely. Besides, if he has any ambition to show himself to be anything other a massive flop, he should reject all offers and do his utmost to prove himself in Spain.

Beauty giant Sephora has been slammed by its customers in the US for marketing a lipstick which is named 'Underage Red'. The offensively-labeled item, which is part of a range of beauty products created by tattoo artist-turned-reality star Kat Von D, real name Katherine von Drachenberg, 33, has caused outrage among customers, many of whom have taken to social media to vent their anger at the store. 'Went shopping for some makeup. How on earth is this a lipstick color?' one person questioned on Twitter, after posting a picture of the lipstick name. Scroll down for video . Offensive: A group of concerned Sephora customers took to Twitter to slam the beauty giant for marketing a lipstick from the Kat Von D range which is named 'Underage Red' (pictured) Beauty guru: Ms Von D, 33, whose real name is Katherine von Drachenberg (pictured), first rose to fame while starring in TLC reality series LA Ink . Cult favorite: According to the Sephora website (pictured), Underage Red, a 'matte fire engine red' lipstick, is particularly popular with customers . 'JESUS do they have a whole sex offender line?' someone else tweeted. 'Lipstick named by creeps,' another person added. Some people, however, chose to see the 'funny side' of the bizarrely-named lipstick, which is believed to have launched around a year ago in stores, and others went as far as to defend Ms Von D's decision to opt for such a risky name. 'So dumb that people are upset over a lipstick color,' one girl tweeted. '"Underage Red" is a hilarious title, especially coming from Kat Von D. Its funny, guys.' The lipstick, which is currently available on the Sephora website and in select stores, is described as being a 'matte fire engine red' and is also highlighted by Sephora as being a 'cult favorite' with its customers. Two types of 'Underage Red' lipsticks are also available at Sephora's first Australian store in Sydney . Going global: 'Underage Red' lipsticks also sold in the Sydney store include the Everlasting Liquid Finish Lipstick for AUD $30 ($20) (pictured) and the Studded Kiss Lipstick for AUD $31 ($21) New venture: Sephora's Sydney store, at Westfield's Pitt Street Mall, opened on December 5 last year . Two types of 'Underage Red' lipsticks are also available at Sephora's first Australian store in Sydney, which opened on December 5 last year. They include the Everlasting Liquid Finish Lipstick for AUD $30 ($20) and the Studded Kiss Lipstick for $31 ($21). Other names included in the Studded Kiss Lipstick line-up include Lolita, Hellbent, and Sexer. Daily Mail Australia has contacted the Sydney Sephora for comment.

A holiday turned to horror yesterday when a coach full of elderly tourists overturned in strong winds and careered down an embankment at a beauty spot. More than 20 people were injured - five seriously - as the bus left the main A83 road at the Rest and Be Thankful in Argyll, did a 360 degree roll, and narrowly avoided plunging into Loch Restil. The coach was taking a party of 32 pensioners from Kent back to their hotel after a day trip when it suddenly veered off the road shortly after 2pm. Five people were seriously injured after a coach carrying elderly tourists veered off the A83 near Argyll, Scotland, today before rolling down the embankment . The coach, which left a deep gash in the ground after the accident, was just feet from plunging into Loch Restil when it came to a stop (pictured) It is not thought any other vehicles were involved in the crash, which happened in an area notorious for its freak high winds. Firefighters armed with cutting equipment had to remove one side of the bus in order to free the passengers trapped inside. Police said a Royal Navy helicopter was scrambled from HMS Gannet to take five casualties to Southern General Hospital in Glasgow and the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Paisley. All have serious injuries, including suspected spinal injuries, which are not thought to be life-threatening. A Lossiemouth RAF helicopter was also on the ground after flying a mountain rescue team to the scene with a winch man paramedic. A further 25 people were described as 'walking wounded' and were taken to a makeshift rest centre at the 'Three Villages Hall' in the nearby town of Arrochar. One horrified onlooker, who did not wish to be named, said: 'It's incredible no one died. 'The bus came down a steep embankment and came to rest very close to the loch. The bus was literally half a metre from the water. 'If it had gone a bit further, it would have been a completely different scenario. 'When I was at the scene, all the windows were broken and the curtains were flying in the wind. 'I don't know what caused the crash, but it is very, very windy. You can hardly stand still.' The A83 was still closed several hours after the accident and a lengthy diversion had been set up along the A82. A spokesman for the Scottish Ambulance Service said it had sent 'multiple resources' to the incident, including a Special Operations Team, an air ambulance helicopter and two emergency medical retrieval teams, who worked alongside the police and fire crews from Lochgilphead, Arrochar and Inveraray. The coach, operated by Lochs and Glens Holidays, was returning from trip to Inverarayand were heading back to one of the group's seven Scottish hotels when the accident happened. In total 20 people were injured in the accident, with another 25 being treated as 'walking wounded' by ambulance crews who arrived at the scene . It is not thought any other vehicles were involved in the crash, which happened in an area notorious for its freak high winds . A spokesman for the group refused to confirm which hotel the group were staying at, but said: 'We are providing all necessary support for those passengers . who were on board and the relatives of those who have been injured. The driver and the company are co-operating fully with the police investigation to establish the exact cause.' By early evening, many of the passengers were still receiving treatment at the triage centre in Arrochar and a number were helped into waiting ambulances and taken to hospital. The accident happened at a spot renowned locally for freak winds. Donald Clark, owner of The George Hotel in Inveraray, said: 'I had friends coming up an hour before the accident happened and they said it was very blustery. 'It's a dangerous spot, there have been a lot of accidents there. There was a Mercedes Sprinter van blown over about six weeks ago. 'There is a gulley there and there is a funny wind pattern, there is a bit of a freak wind that comes, there has been a pattern of accidents there.' He added that a road worker had told him it was believed that the wind caught the coach and blew it over the bank, where it had rolled within six metres of Loch Restil, a fresh water loch. Local councillor Bruce Marshall said it was 'very very lucky' the outcome had not been far worse. He said: 'It's terrible. Obviously this is a very serious accident and I just hope that people all recover. 'It's in a very remote part of my ward and nobody lives there. It's in an area where the winds are very strong and might pose a risk to high-sided vehicles but the weather has been fairly good. The Scottish ambulance service said it had sent two rescue vehicles, an air ambulance, and a Special Operations Team to the crash after being called at 2pm . The A83 was still closed several hours after the accident and a lengthy diversion had been set up . 'Thank goodness the emergency services were on the scene very quickly. It will be sad for the operators and everyone involved.' Transport Minister Derek Mackay said last night: 'Scottish Ministers have been kept fully informed of this serious incident across the afternoon and our immediate thoughts are with the passengers who have been transported to hospital. 'The emergency services have been working closely with helicopters from both Prestwick and Lossiemouth as well as mountain rescue teams and 'The A83, at The Rest and Be Thankful, remains closed to allow the investigation into what caused the accident to get underway.' A Police Scotland spokesman said: 'Around 2.10pm, a coach with tourists overturned on the A83 Rest and Be Thankful. 'It is understood that 32 people were on board of which five are believed to be seriously injured. 'They are being taken by ambulance/medivac to either the Southern or the RAH in Paisley for treatment. Twenty five people are described as 'walking wounded'. 'Emergency Services are at the scene.

(CNN)Buddy Elias spent much of his life preserving the memory of his cousin Anne Frank. His death Monday brought back memories for me. We met three years ago in an Atlanta hotel conference room. He and his wife, Gerti, were touring the United States to promote a new book. I could tell instantly that he was related to Anne. His face resembled hers so much that it felt almost as though I was meeting her in person. "Anne Frank's Family" had just been published, based on 14 boxes of letters, postcards, photos and documents that Gerti accidentally discovered in the attic of their house in Basel. Elias told me that it wasn't just Anne who loved to write; everyone in the family did. The 6,000 recovered documents told a story of a family torn apart by war and anti-Semitism. That day in Atlanta, I listened to Elias tell me about loved ones he lost. He told me he was lucky that his family had remained in neutral Switzerland when World War II broke out. I thought back to our conversation Thursday when I learned the news of Elias' death. He died peacefully at his home in Basel, Switzerland, at 90, said an announcement posted on the website of Anne Frank Fonds, the foundation that Elias headed. Like millions of people who read "The Diary of Anne Frank," I was deeply influenced by her words and in awe of her family's courage. Anne received her diary on her 13th birthday and wrote in it for the two years that her family hid from the Nazis in the secret annex of an Amsterdam apartment. I was only in seventh grade when my father bought me the book in 1975. After the family was discovered, they were sent to Auschwitz. Later, Anne and her sister Margot were taken to Bergen-Belsen, where they both died in March 1945. Her father, Otto Frank, was the sole survivor of the family, one of only 7,000 people who made it out alive from Auschwitz. In the course of my two hours with Elias, I learned new things about the young, Jewish girl whose journal is arguably the most famous in the world. She called him Bernd, short for Bernhard, Elias' formal name. In his youth, Elias was an actor and a skater with Holiday on Ice. He was her first cousin and 4 years older. They adored one another. "Bernd, maybe we can skate as a pair together someday," Anne wrote in January 1941 from Amsterdam. "But I know I'll have to train very hard to be as good as you are." In another letter, Anne outlined the steps to their skating routine and drew a picture of the blue, fur-trimmed dress she would wear when she finally skated with Elias. "She never did get to do that," Elias said. On his 17th birthday in 1942, she asked him how it was going with a girl he had met. It was an ordinary letter that one keeps like any other. But it turned out to be her last to him, and he preserved it like a relic, as proof of his cousin's affection, as something to treasure. "That was the last sign of life I had with Anne," Elias told me. After the war, Otto Frank searched frantically for his family and eventually learned their cruel fate. He published Anne's diary in 1947 and helped transform it for the stage and film. He created the foundation in her name in 1963. The first edition of the diary was in Dutch. Elias told me he had to wait several years for a German language edition before he could read it. That was when he came to truly understand his childhood playmate. By the time he read her words, he had not seen Anne in many years. In his mind, he treasured the image of a spunky girl who loved the Jack-in-the-Box puppet shows Elias staged and played hide-and-seek. "Anne," he said, "was always good at hiding." I wondered whether he caught the irony of his own words. Otto Frank kept alive his daughter's legacy until he died in 1980 and passed on that role to Elias. He was devoted to the task until the day he died. In 2012, he helped create the Frank Family Centre in Frankfurt, where archives of his extended family will be made accessible to the public, according to the Anne Frank foundation. Elias was my closest personal encounter with a girl who opened my eyes to the cruelty of this world. Anne Frank never gave up on humanity, despite everything she endured. It was her goodness that amazes every reader of her diary. In Elias, I saw that same goodness.

Anne Frank was extremely close to her first cousin Buddy Elias . A discovery in Elias' attic led to the a book revealing new details about Anne's famiy . Elias became the preserver of Anne's legacy after her father, Otto Frank, died in 1980 .

She called him Bernd, short for Bernhard, Elias' formal name. In his youth, Elias was an actor and a skater with Holiday on Ice. He was her first cousin and 4 years older. They adored one another. "Bernd, maybe we can skate as a pair together someday," Anne wrote in January 1941 from Amsterdam. "But I know I'll have to train very hard to be as good as you are." In another letter, Anne outlined the steps to their skating routine and drew a picture of the blue, fur-trimmed dress she would wear when she finally skated with Elias. "She never did get to do that," Elias said. On his 17th birthday in 1942, she asked him how it was going with a girl he had met. It was an ordinary letter that one keeps like any other. But it turned out to be her last to him, and he preserved it like a relic, as proof of his cousin's affection, as something to treasure. "That was the last sign of life I had with Anne," Elias told me. After the war, Otto Frank searched frantically for his family and eventually learned their cruel fate. He published Anne's diary in 1947 and helped transform it for the stage and film. He created the foundation in her name in 1963. The first edition of the diary was in Dutch. Elias told me he had to wait several years for a German language edition before he could read it. That was when he came to truly understand his childhood playmate. By the time he read her words, he had not seen Anne in many years. In his mind, he treasured the image of a spunky girl who loved the Jack-in-the-Box puppet shows Elias staged and played hide-and-seek. "Anne," he said, "was always good at hiding." I wondered whether he caught the irony of his own words. Otto Frank kept alive his daughter's legacy until he died in 1980 and passed on that role to Elias. He was devoted to the task until the day he died. In 2012, he helped create the Frank Family Centre in Frankfurt, where archives of his extended family will be made accessible to the public, according to the Anne Frank foundation. Elias was my closest personal encounter with a girl who opened my eyes to the cruelty of this world. Anne Frank never gave up on humanity, despite everything she endured. It was her goodness that amazes every reader of her diary. In Elias, I saw that same goodness. [/INST] Anne Frank was extremely close to her first cousin Buddy Elias . A discovery in Elias' attic led to the a book revealing new details about Anne's famiy . Elias became the preserver of Anne's legacy after her father, Otto Frank, died in 1980 . </s>

Chelsea's Lewis Baker has spoken of his pride at captaining England's under 20 side and believes he is only just setting out on his journey with the Three Lions. The 19-year-old, who is currently out on loan at League One side MK Dons, featured for England in their 1-1 draw with Mexico at Barnet on Wednesday night. Aidy Boothroyd's team won the penalty shoot-out 4-2 after Arsenal striker Chuba Akpom won and then scored a penalty in normal time to cancel out Jose Ramirez's opener. Lewis Baker in action for England's under 20s in their international with Mexico on Wednesday night . The midfielder was appointed captain by Aidy Boothroyd at the beginning of the season . On the responsibility of being captain, Baker told Sportsmail: 'It's a great honour for me. Aidy chose me to be captain at the start of the campaign and that was a massive lift for me personally. 'But everyone in the team, we're all captains on the pitch in the game and we showed today that we can be a team and stick together through the bad times. 'I try to lead by example in what I do on the ball and off the ball. Everyone's aim to get to the under 21s and the seniors. 'All we can do is keep working hard, keeping doing what we can do and give your best.' Although England looked the more likely to score after Mexico goalkeeper Raul Gudino was sent off for fouling Akpom for the penalty, they had been second best for much of the friendly at The Hive. As they look towards the Toulon Tournament at the end of the season, Baker believes there is some room for improvement, starting with Sunday's friendly with the United States at Plymouth. Baker celebrates scoring for Chelsea in last season's Under 21 Premier League final with Manchester United . England under 20s coach Aidy Boothroyd smiles during Wednesday night's match at The Hive . England's under 20s are in action again on Sunday when they play the United States at Home Park in Plymouth. Ticket information can be found here. 'We didn't perform today at the level we have performed at in previous games,' he admitted. 'They were a good side; I thought first-half they had the upper hand and could have scored a few goals but we kept persevering, stayed in the game, had a little talk at half-time on how to get better and we got the result.' Akpom, who has been on the fringes of Arsene Wenger's first team all season, took his England under 20s tally to four when he drilled home his 78th minute penalty. And Baker appreciates his game-changing qualities: 'When Chuba goes through on goal, everyone gets out of their seat because they know Chuba is a great goalscorer. He's done well today, getting the penalty and he scored in the shoot-out as well.' Chuba Akpom of England scores their equaliser from the penalty spot for England Under 20s . England players celebrate during the penalty shoot-out against Mexico on Wednesday night . On a personal level, Baker has scored two goals in five appearances for the Dons since arriving from Stamford Bridge and is set to play a pivotal role as Karl Robinson's men push for promotion. He said: 'I've been playing under 21 at Chelsea for a while now and so the next step was to go on loan and at MK Dons now I'm under great care with the manager and the players. 'With the talent we have got at MK Dons there's no reason why we can't get into the play-offs or even gain automatic promotion.'

(CNN)A man armed with an assault rifle held his family hostage and shot and killed a Navajo Nation police officer Thursday evening, the Native American tribal government said. The suspect fled, and was shot to death hours later. The slain officer, who was not immediately identified, was one of two Navajo Police officers shot after a domestic violence call came in around 4 p.m. (6 p.m. ET) Thursday, according to a statement from the Navajo Nation. The officers were responding to a report that a man with an AR-15 rifle was holding his family hostage. That same man shot at the Navajo Police, then ran. A manhunt ensued involving officers from the Navajo Nation's Window Rock and Crownpoint districts. It ended with word around 10:30 p.m. that the suspect was shot to death in the northern Arizona city of Red Valley, just over the border from New Mexico, according to the Navajo Nation government. It was not immediately clear how he died -- whether it was from a shootout with police or a self-inflicted wound. The wounded officer is being treated in the Shiprock-Northern Navajo Medical Center. The officer's condition was not immediately known. "We send our condolences to the family of the Navajo Police officer who gave his life in the line of duty," Navajo Nation President Ben Shelly said. "... The family will be in our prayers." The Navajo Nation straddles northeast Arizona, northwest New Mexico and southeast Utah, compassing some 27,000 square miles -- an area larger than West Virginia. Along with a distinctive, centuries-old culture, the autonomous jurisdiction boasts what its website calls "the largest and most sophisticated form of American Indian government." CNN's Christine Sever contributed to this report.

Angela Patram, 37, gave birth to her fifth child last month and just minutes later, she became a grandmother too. The Florida mother and her 20-year-old daughter Teranisha Billups gave birth on the same day last month, in the same hospital where Patram also works as a nurse. 'We knew our due dates were around the same time, but we never expected that it would happen on the same day,' Patram told People magazine. 'I'm kinda shocked that it played out how it did,' Billups told WTSP. What are the odds? Angela Patram, left, gave birth to daughter Raya, in pink, on the same day that her 20-year-old daughter Teranisha Billups, right, gave birth to son Jerry Michaud Jr, in blue, last month in Tampa. Pictured above with Dr Atef Zakhary, who delivered both babies . Patram was the first to give birth on February 19 at Tampa General Hospital, welcoming daughter Rayna into the world at 6:29pm. Older daughter Billups had been in labor since the day before, but she didn't give birth to son Jerry Michaud Jr until 34 minutes after Patram. Dr Atef Zakhary delivered both babies, as well as two of Patram's older children, and described it as a once-in-a-lifetime experience. 'I've been in this field for 29 years ... I've seen maybe 14,000 deliveries,' Dr. Zakhary said in a statement on the hospital's website. 'I've never seen a mom and daughter deliver on the same day. And this is as close as you could get.' While Patram is sad she couldn't be with her daughter for the delivery, and be the first to see her new grandson, the mother daughter duo took pictures shortly after they were both rested from delivery. Double the fun: Patram says they knew their due dates were close, but never imagined giving birth on the same day. Pictured above with Angela's son CJ, center . Extraordinary: Dr Zakhary says he's never seen a mother and daughter give birth on the same day in his 29 years delivering babies . With them to mark the occasion was the Patram's other children Angelique, 14; Alicia, 13; and CJ, 4. Billups partner Jerry Michaud Sr and baby Rayna's father were also in attendance on the happy occasion. Patram's mother was frantically running between rooms to make sure both her daughter and granddaughter were supported through the birth. One month after delivery, both babies are doing well and living at Patram's home in Gibsonton, Florida. 'When we sit both babies next to each other, they just look at each other really closely,' Billups said. "It's weird seeing two babies of the same size in the house." Billups and Michaud are currently living with her mother while they search for a home of their own nearby. Billups studies biology at Florida A&M University, but plans to transfer to a college closer to home.

'I'm kinda shocked that it played out how it did,' Billups told WTSP. What are the odds? Angela Patram, left, gave birth to daughter Raya, in pink, on the same day that her 20-year-old daughter Teranisha Billups, right, gave birth to son Jerry Michaud Jr, in blue, last month in Tampa. Pictured above with Dr Atef Zakhary, who delivered both babies . Patram was the first to give birth on February 19 at Tampa General Hospital, welcoming daughter Rayna into the world at 6:29pm. Older daughter Billups had been in labor since the day before, but she didn't give birth to son Jerry Michaud Jr until 34 minutes after Patram. Dr Atef Zakhary delivered both babies, as well as two of Patram's older children, and described it as a once-in-a-lifetime experience. 'I've been in this field for 29 years ... I've seen maybe 14,000 deliveries,' Dr. Zakhary said in a statement on the hospital's website. 'I've never seen a mom and daughter deliver on the same day. And this is as close as you could get.' While Patram is sad she couldn't be with her daughter for the delivery, and be the first to see her new grandson, the mother daughter duo took pictures shortly after they were both rested from delivery. Double the fun: Patram says they knew their due dates were close, but never imagined giving birth on the same day. Pictured above with Angela's son CJ, center . Extraordinary: Dr Zakhary says he's never seen a mother and daughter give birth on the same day in his 29 years delivering babies . With them to mark the occasion was the Patram's other children Angelique, 14; Alicia, 13; and CJ, 4. Billups partner Jerry Michaud Sr and baby Rayna's father were also in attendance on the happy occasion. Patram's mother was frantically running between rooms to make sure both her daughter and granddaughter were supported through the birth. One month after delivery, both babies are doing well and living at Patram's home in Gibsonton, Florida. 'When we sit both babies next to each other, they just look at each other really closely,' Billups said. "It's weird seeing two babies of the same size in the house." Billups and Michaud are currently living with her mother while they search for a home of their own nearby. Billups studies biology at Florida A&M University, but plans to transfer to a college closer to home. [/INST] Angela Patram, 37, gave birth to her fifth child on February 19 .

Texas's prison agency is scrambling to find a supplier to replenish its inventory of execution drugs, which will be used up if the state goes forward with two lethal injections scheduled for this week and next. Prison officials only have enough pentobarbital for the scheduled executions of Manuel Vasquez on Wednesday and Randall Mays on March 18, but they don't know how they will conduct lethal injections on four others scheduled for April. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice declined to say why it has not been able to obtain more pentobarbital from the same compounding pharmacy that provided the current batch of the powerful sedative last March. Texas's prison agency only has enough lethal pentrobarbital for two executions. Manuel Vasquez, left, is scheduled to be injected on Wednesday while Randall Mays (right) will be executed on March 18 . Texas prison execute inmates in chambers like this one. But with limited pentobarbital, the state is looking into other options for execution . The state switched to that source several months after its previous supplier cut ties, citing hate mail and potential litigation after its name became public through an open records request from The Associated Press. Prison officials have since waged a legal battle to keep the name of its latest supplier secret, but it's unclear how much longer they can do so after a state judge last year ordered the agency to divulge the source. That ruling is on hold pending the outcome of the state's appeal. Prisons spokesman Jason Clark said the state's lawyers have advised the agency not to comment on whether the current supplier has backed out or whether the judge's order has affected its ability to find a supplier. Although Texas, traditionally the nation's busiest death penalty state, faces the most imminent deadline for replenishing its pentobarbital supply, other states are experiencing similar problems. For example, South Carolina ran out of pentobarbital — part of its three-drug execution formula — when the drug expired in 2013. The state has been unable to replenish its supplies because it can't find a company willing to sell them anymore, according to Corrections Director Bryan Stirling. The state's last execution was in 2011, and no new executions have been scheduled because cases are tied up in the appeals process. Kent Sprouse (pictured) is scheduled to be the next inmate to be executed after Mays. He is on death row for the shooting deaths of a North Texas police officer and another man in 2002 . If Texas executes Vasquez and Mays as scheduled, a new supply of pentobarbital will be needed by April 9 when Kent Sprouse is scheduled to die for the shooting deaths of a North Texas police officer and another man in 2002. Three other prisoners are set to follow Sprouse to the death chamber in April, and at least one more is set for May. 'We're focused on multiple fronts,' Brad Livingston, the Texas agency's executive director, said last month before a prison board meeting in Austin. 'We're not ruling anything out, but clearly securing additional pentobarbital is part of our game plan.' Livingston was traveling Monday and not available to provide an update. While Texas prison officials administratively could change the lethal drug they use, a method change would require legislative action. 'At this time, it's not a topic of discussion,' said state Sen. John Whitmire, who chairs the Senate Criminal Justice Committee. Because pharmaceutical companies stopped selling U.S. prisons drugs for use in lethal injections, Texas and other death penalty states have turned to compounding pharmacies for made-to-order execution drugs. Last week, a Georgia woman's execution was delayed, then called off, when prison officials said they noticed the compounded pentobarbital planned for her lethal injection appeared cloudy, rather than clear. The Georgia Department of Corrections cited 'an abundance of caution' in delaying punishment for Kelly Gissendaner, who would have been the first woman put to death in that state in 70 years, and a second inmate, Brian Terrell, who was set to die this week. Executions for death row inmates take place in Texas Department of Criminal Justice Huntsville Unit (pictured) Texas has executed a nation-leading 521 inmates since 1982, when it became the first state to use lethal injection. It's now been nearly three years since Texas began using pentobarbital as its only capital punishment drug, switching in July 2012 after one of the chemicals in the previous three-drug mixture no longer was available. The last 17 Texas executions, stretching back to September 2013, have used compounded pentobarbital, and the last nine from compounding pharmacies the state has refused to identify. Texas officials have insisted the identity should remain secret, citing a 'threat assessment' signed by Texas Department of Public Safety director Steven McCraw that says pharmacies selling execution drugs face 'a substantial threat of physical harm.' Law enforcement officials have declined to elaborate on the nature of those threats. The U.S. Supreme Court, meanwhile, has refused to block punishments based on challenges to secrecy laws. However, the high court is reviewing Oklahoma's lethal injection method, resulting in a hold on executions there, after a punishment using the sedative midazolam followed by two other drugs went awry. Oklahoma lawmakers now are considering a switch to nitrogen gas as the first alternative to injection while officials in other states are considering a return to firing squads or the electric chair.

Alexis Wiederholt, 24, made a frantic call to police in the small town of Elmo after her five-year-old son told her 'I'm sorry, Mom. I shot Corbin'. The infant was flown 120 miles away to a hospital in Kansas City, where he was pronounced dead.

Scroll down for video . Nine-month-old Corbin Wiederholt (above in mother Alexis's arms with father Brad and brothers) was killed when his five-year-old brother shot him with a revolver. No negligence charges are being filed in the case . Mr Porter owned multiple guns, including the .22-caliber magnum revolver used to shoot his grandson, according to the St. Joseph News-Press. Both he and his daughter, who lives in North Dakota with her husband but was visiting her father before a National Guard stint, believed that the weapons were empty and stored in a gun safe. The revolver was kept in a shelf built into Mr Porter's headboard in the same room where Corbin was in a playpen. Mr Rice said that the weapon was not in plain sight. Mrs Widerholt originally thought that her five-year-old had shot her baby with a paintball gun before finding out that he had been shot in the head with a handgun. 'I walked in and there was my baby, lying there, bleeding,' the young mother told NBC News. 'I had just hugged him in my arms five minutes before that.'

She was home alone with her children doing laundry at the time of the tragic shooting, according to the Maryville Daily Forum. Mrs Wiederholt revealed that she had no idea her father even kept a loaded gun in the home. 'I didn't know it was there until I turned around and saw it laying on the bed,' she said. Porter said of the tragedy; 'I told the boys they weren't supposed to be in my bedroom where I keep the gun cabinet and they knew it — but like I said, boys will be boys.' Neighbor Jessica Hutchison, said: 'I think that gun safety could have come into play and would have maybe prevented the situation. It's just really sad altogether.' The Wiederholt children are five, three, and one-and-a-half years old. A Child Fatality Review Board recommended that Mrs Wiederholt and her father not be charged shortly after the incident. Criminal negligence occurs when someone 'fails to be aware of a substantial and unjustifiable risk that circumstances exist or a result will follow, and such failure constitutes a gross deviation from the standard of care which a reasonable person would exercise in the situation' according to Missouri law. An average of 62 children are shot unintentionally each year, according to the Centers for Disease Control.

The 53-year-old president and his family paid tribute to civil rights legends sung and unsung by leading a symbolic march across the Alabama town's Edmund Pettus Bridge on Saturday afternoon. Speaking on the bridge in the sunshine, Obama said of his 13-year-old and 16-year-old daughter: 'I want to say what an extraordinary honor this has been, especially to have Sasha and Malia here.' He had previously said he hoped the girls - who wore dresses and boots for the 50th anniversary march - would be reminded 'of their own obligations' to continue America's fight for civil rights. 'There are going to be marches for them to march, and struggles for them to fight. And if we've done our job, then that next generation is going to be picking up the torch, as well,' he said last month. Scroll down for video .

(CNN)Singer-songwriter David Crosby hit a jogger with his car Sunday evening, a spokesman said. The accident happened in Santa Ynez, California, near where Crosby lives. Crosby was driving at approximately 50 mph when he struck the jogger, according to California Highway Patrol Spokesman Don Clotworthy. The posted speed limit was 55. The jogger suffered multiple fractures, and was airlifted to a hospital in Santa Barbara, Clotworthy said. His injuries are not believed to be life threatening. "Mr. Crosby was cooperative with authorities and he was not impaired or intoxicated in any way. Mr. Crosby did not see the jogger because of the sun," said Clotworthy. According to the spokesman, the jogger and Crosby were on the same side of the road. Pedestrians are supposed to be on the left side of the road walking toward traffic, Clotworthy said. Joggers are considered pedestrians. Crosby is known for weaving multilayered harmonies over sweet melodies. He belongs to the celebrated rock group Crosby, Stills & Nash. "David Crosby is obviously very upset that he accidentally hit anyone. And, based off of initial reports, he is relieved that the injuries to the gentleman were not life threatening," said Michael Jensen, a Crosby spokesman. "He wishes the jogger a very speedy recovery."

A controversial documentary, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival, claims the Church of Scientology broke up Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman. On Monday makers of the film Going Clear: Scientology And The Prison Of Belief sat down for a panel discussion, where they addressed the alleged role the church played in the demise of the Hollywood couple's marriage. Logan Hill moderated the talk, held by The New York Times, between author Lawrence Wright (who wrote the book the film is based on), filmmaker Paul Haggis, director Alex Gibney and former Scientology member Mike Rinder. Scroll down for video... Revelations: A documentary premiered at the Sundance Film Festival alleges that the Church of Scientology broke up Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman . In the film Marty Rathbun, formerly the second highest-ranking official, claims he had been appointed to 'facilitate the breakup' because the head of the church, David Miscavige, was suspicious of Cruise's second wife. Monday's panel discussion focused in on Rathbun's claims. 'David Miscavige [leader of the Church of Scientology] was terrified that he was losing control of Tom Cruise, because Tom Cruise is the greatest rainmaker really, for Scientology,' Gibney claimed.

At odds: Filmmakers say church leaders were fearful of Nicole's influence on Tom, pictured in Los Angeles in 1991 . The director went on to assert that Scientology and psychiatry are opposed, adding that the actress' father 'was a psychologist in Australia.' 'Miscavige was afraid that Nicole Kidman was slowly taking Tom away from the church,' Gibney continued. 'There was a concerted effort to get him back. One of the things they did was... at Tom's behest, Marty Rathbun testifies in the film, that David Miscavige requested Marty to go and tap Nicole Kidman's phone.' Cruise's attorney, however, told E! News regarding the claims of wiretapping: 'Tom Cruise did not hire any private investigator to spy on or investigate Nicole Kidman in any way. Nor did he ask the Church of Scientology to do that. Any statement to the contrary is provably false.' Gibney's film claims that Kidman, who was raised Catholic, convinced Cruise to distance himself from the Church of Scientology between 1992 and 2001. Over: The pair divorced in 2001 and following the split, Cruise became more active in the Church of Scientology, receiving the church's Freedom Medal of Valor in 2004, pictured in 1999 . It also alleges that during the filming of Stanley Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut, Cruise wasn't returning Miscavige's phone calls, even though he was the best man at the actor's wedding. Rathbun suggests, in the film, this is when the aggressive campaign to tear the couple apart began. Urging them: Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Wright publicly pressed John Travolta and Cruise to speak out about claims of abuse within the church . Gibney went on to claim during Monday's panel: 'The other, more pernicious thing that happened was that they tried to turn their two kids against Nicole, which is really the most horrifying thing. 'They succeeded, so much so that we have people who told us that they began to refer to their mother privately as a suppressive person... and then they were told, "Now listen, the way you deal with suppressive people is, don't let on to them that you know that they're a suppressive person. So, be nice, smile, but be aware that this person is more dangerous and damaging than anything you could possibly believe."' Rinder, a former high ranking member of the church, went on to offer his own views on the claims: 'The circumstances surrounding that and his description of what happened, rings so true. 'The mind-set of Nicole isn't really with the program so here we go back to disconnection again, except it's got a nicer name, it doesn't exactly get presented that way to Tom Cruise.' 'It's "Tom, she's not good for you, you better straighten out here and get your life in order and we'll help you,"' he continued. 'That dictatorial control and efforts to control people's lives is really the ebb and flow of the Church of Scientology... There are all sorts of examples like that.'

At the time the church denied the claims made by the Vanity Fair piece. Cruise and Kidman share two adopted children together, Isabella, 22, and Conor, 20. Meanwhile, during Monday's panel Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Wright publicly pressed John Travolta and Cruise to speak out about claims of abuse within the church.

But some of those celebrity megaphones, if they were turned around in the other direction they could make a difference. They should make a difference. I'd like to see Tom Cruise stand up and say it's time for David Miscavige to answer his accusers.' The Church Of Scientology responded belatedly to DailyMail.com's request for comment and denied all allegations made by the film and the filmmakers, including allegations of wiretapping, and claims made about David Miscavige. The church also characterized Marty Rathbun, Mike Rinder, and Alex Gibney as biased and unreliable sources. Before the controversial documentary's first screening, HBO hired 160 lawyers to look through the film. It is expected to air on the channel on March 29. In more than 200 tweets, the church has tried to discredit Gibney and his sources in Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival last month.

And a week before the premiere, it took out full-page ads in the New York Times and Los Angeles Times to offer a counter point of view. In addition, the church released a statement to Us Weekly, stating: 'This is not a film that is any way objective about Scientology. It is propaganda... Freedom of the press is not freedom to lie. The Church of Scientology has long fought against the kind of bigotry and religious hatred that Mr. Gibney and co-producer Lawrence Wright aim to incite. To fit their anti-religious agenda, they scraped the bottom of the barrel to cherry-pick a tiny collection of deadbeats.' Despite the furor surrounding the production, Gibney hopes it will lead to more investigations and reports into Scientology. He told Variety magazine: 'We hope that this film and Larry's book will start the process where more media will say well we don't care anymore. We're going to pursue this no matter what.

Chester City striker Oliver McBurnie has vowed to prove Scotland's Under 19s don't need Real Madrid superkid Jack Harper by firing Ricky Sbragia's youngsters to a winning start in their UEFA Elite Round against hosts Austria on Thursday. Sbragia's decision to omit the promising Bernabeu talent for the tournament has caused uproar, mixed with bemusement, after the former Sunderland boss' comments about Harper not being physically strong enough. Harper's replacement does not have Zinedine Zidane as a coach or the luxury of a five-year deal with Real. In fact, McBurnie is currently on loan from Bradford City at Football Conference mid-table outfit Chester City. On loan Chesterfield striker is ready to step up for Scotland Under 19s against Austria on Thursday . McBurnie in action for Scotland Under 19s against Holland Under 19s during an International Challenge match . However, the 18-year-old is in agreement with Sbragia that Scotland need to be physical in their three games which starts on Thursday in Vienna against hosts Austria, before facing Italy on Saturday and Croatia next week. And he's had plenty of practice playing for Chester against the likes of Alfreton Town, Dartford and Lincoln City's grizzled defenders. McBurnie said: 'Obviously, Jack hasn't made the squad, but it's good to know it' s not just about reputations. If they do come and watch you and you do well then you get the rewards for that. 'The boys are confident and we know we have quality in this team and an ability to hurt the opposition. If we stick to the game-plan and play how we know we can play we've got a chance. It's tough against the hosts, Italy and Croatia for that matter but we want to test ourselves against the best. 'They're all good sides and hopefully we can go out there and prove a point. They're going to be big and powerful sides but we see ourselves in that bracket as well. Hopefully we can cope with that and let our football do the talking. Real Madrid youngster Jack Harper has been left out of the latest Scotland Under 19 squad . McBurnie says that he has had to toughen up playing against conference opposition . 'You have to grow up fast and it's very different to Bradford, although Chester like to try and play a bit to be fair. In the Conference it's tough to play football on some of the pitches against some of the teams. It's a great learning experience and just adds to my game. The defenders have definitely tried to rough me up. 'The worst was at Lincoln away. Both of their centre-backs were about 6ft 6in and I was playing up front on my own. That was tough. But we got through and won, so I enjoy testing myself against bigger and stronger players. It's a different experience.' But the Harper issue does bring back memories of a depressingly frank admission from Billy Stark, then Scotland Under-21 boss, in June 2009. A month earlier, Xavi and Iniesta had passed Manchester United to death during the 2009 Champions League Final at Rome's Stadio Olimpico. Recalling a community coaching forum at Hampden 24 hours before, Stark said: 'I was asked whether Iniesta and Xavi would have flourished and come through the Scottish system. 'It's hard to say because you're looking at two different cultures but the answer is - probably not. The Spanish place an emphasis on sheer technique and movement. Our game is based more on power and pace. So there's an argument that they wouldn't have come through in this country to become the players they are now. Scotland Under 19s manager Ricky Sbragia claimed Harper is not big enough physically . Harper is currently midway through a five-year deal with Real Madrid and is tipped to have a big future . 'But the Spanish approach is working for them and it deserves to be copied,' he added. Former Scotland manager Craig Brown has urged caution in the rush to condemn the under-fire Sbragia. 'I've the greatest of admiration for Ricky as a man and a coach,' said the 74-year-old. 'My friend Archie Knox speaks highly of him and he's also worked under Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United. So I'd like to hear more on the context of the words spoken by him (about Jack Harper). 'But I would say this: people are saying this young lad is a Real Madrid player. He's not; he's never played for Real Madrid. I was a Rangers signing but I never played for Rangers. 'Real Madrid will have hundreds of kids in their system. I'm not for a minute saying Jack Harper is not a good player. I haven't seen him so I don't know. Former Scotland boss Craig Brown (second right) revealed his admiration for Under 19 coach Sbragia . 'But I think people get hypnotised by the name Real Madrid. There's a frenzy going on but if (the same player) played for another club would there be the same impact?' Brown admitted it is an occupational hazard of a national youth selector to end up looking foolish. 'You can't get every player right,' he said. 'Here's my example: When I was Scotland Under 21 manager, I got a phone call from the late Alex Wright, manager of Dumbarton, saying he had a good player for me. It was Owen Coyle, and he was good, but I didn't think he was as good as Kevin Gallacher and Gordon Durie. 'I told Alex the only reason I would be picking Owen would be solely to prevent Ireland getting him – and that would be unfair. He would have been a bench player for Scotland. 'So the Irish picked him instead and our next game was against Ireland at Easter Road. My over-age centre half that day was Alex McLeish and Owen knocked the ball past Alex and stuck it in the roof of his net. 'I remember thinking 'I've messed up here'. But we ended up winning 4-1 and I think Durie scored three. But you can get egg on your face…'

I'm not for a minute saying Jack Harper is not a good player. I haven't seen him so I don't know. Former Scotland boss Craig Brown (second right) revealed his admiration for Under 19 coach Sbragia . 'But I think people get hypnotised by the name Real Madrid. There's a frenzy going on but if (the same player) played for another club would there be the same impact?' Brown admitted it is an occupational hazard of a national youth selector to end up looking foolish. 'You can't get every player right,' he said. 'Here's my example: When I was Scotland Under 21 manager, I got a phone call from the late Alex Wright, manager of Dumbarton, saying he had a good player for me. It was Owen Coyle, and he was good, but I didn't think he was as good as Kevin Gallacher and Gordon Durie. 'I told Alex the only reason I would be picking Owen would be solely to prevent Ireland getting him – and that would be unfair. He would have been a bench player for Scotland. 'So the Irish picked him instead and our next game was against Ireland at Easter Road. My over-age centre half that day was Alex McLeish and Owen knocked the ball past Alex and stuck it in the roof of his net. 'I remember thinking 'I've messed up here'. But we ended up winning 4-1 and I think Durie scored three. But you can get egg on your face…' [/INST] Scotland Under-19s play Austria on Thursday as part of UEFA Elite Round .

Dozens of pupils were given detentions for watching the solar eclipse – at a school that had boasted it would be celebrating the ‘rare and spectacular’ phenomenon. But only younger children at the Merseyside secondary were allowed to watch the once-in-a-generation event, with the rest of the school ordered to remain indoors. Hilbre High School, Wirral, had announced an eclipse-based science project with its younger pupils, who had spent the previous week making safety goggles so they could watch it, saying: ‘Key Stage 3 will be focused on the rare and spectacular event. Hilbre High School (pictured) in Wirral, Merseyside, organised an eclipse-based project with its younger pupils but told the rest of the school to stay indoors . 'It is great to see students engaging in real-life events.’ But the ban on older children watching the eclipse sparked a revolt, with an entire class skipping lessons so they would not miss out. Almost 30 Year 10 pupils streamed out into the streets to watch the moon pass in front of the sun, only to be given immediate detentions. Orders: The school (pictured logo) gave detentions for the class of 30 children that skipped lessons after warning about looking at the eclipse with the naked eye . Last night, parents complained their children had been punished just for showing curiosity about the world around them. Clifford Stott, whose daughter was one of those given a detention, said: ‘It was the perfect platform for engaging the children with a whole range of educational issues – physics, mathematics and cosmology. 'To punish them does little more than alienate them. I feel outraged.’ The school insisted it had punished the children for disobeying warnings during assembly at the start of the day about the dangers of looking at the eclipse with the naked eye. Principal Jan Levenson said: ‘It was a question of safety. At the heart of this has been the protection of children from the harmful effects of viewing the eclipse without proper eye protection.’ During detention, she added, pupils were asked to ‘reflect on their misbehaviour, their truanting and the fact they put themselves at very serious risk’. The solar eclipse on Friday morning was the first this century and there won't be another one for 19 years .

(CNN)Solar Impulse 2 has landed safely in Oman on the first leg of its quest to be the first plane to fly around the world fueled only by the sun's rays. The solar-powered plane took off from Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates early on Monday with pilot Andre Borschberg at the controls for the 400-kilometer (250 mile) flight. The journey was expected to take about 12 hours, but high winds of up to 11 knots delayed its landing, forcing Borschberg to fly in a holding pattern above Muscat until they dropped to safe levels. Once safely on the ground, Borschberg said he was "extremely happy" and "looking forward to the rest of [the] adventure." Solar Impulse 2's visit to Oman is a short pit-stop on its marathon 35,000-kilometer, five month journey across the globe, via India, Myanmar, China and the U.S. The plane is expected to be on the ground for just eight hours before it takes off again -- this time with pilot Bertrand Piccard in charge -- bound for Ahmedabad in India. The potentially historic flight had originally been due to take off on March 1 but its departure was postponed because of concerns about the weather after strong dust storms created hazy conditions. "We have had a lot of sandstorms in Abu Dhabi, and also a lot of wind, sea breezes, higher than the limit," said the team's meteorologist Luc Truellemans in an interview posted on Twitter and YouTube. By Monday morning, the skies had cleared sufficiently for takeoff, though there was a slight delay while technical checks were carried out, as pilot Andre Borschberg explained on Twitter. Eventually the plane got off the ground, under the watchful eye of fellow pilot Piccard. Monday's journey to Oman was a relatively short one, compared to some of the longer legs, which will take up to five or six days and nights. Borschberg and Piccard will spend a total of 500 hours behind the controls over the entire trip, taking it in turns in the tiny 3.8-square meter single-seater cockpit. Before the takeoff, Piccard admitted the pair "had "butterflies in the stomach" at the thought of getting underway after working on the project for so long. On Sunday, the pair joked about tossing a coin for the right to fly first, before tearfully revealing that they had already decided who would be doing what. "Andre has worked on this airplane ... for 12 years, from the feasibility study until now; it is more than natural that he takes the first step," said Piccard. Borschberg added: "Bertrand deserves to fly the last leg, and to make the arrival in Abu Dhabi, completing the vision he created 15 years ago." The pair will also split ocean-flying duties: Piccard will take on the five-day, five-night journey across the Pacific, while Borschberg will tackle the Atlantic. Solar Impulse's 72-meter (236-foot) wingspan makes it wider than a Boeing 747, but the plane weighs just 2.5 tons, lighter than a large SUV. The tiny cockpit will be packed with essentials for the journey -- enough food and water for a week -- as well as a parachute, life raft and oxygen bottles in case of emergencies. Borschberg and Piccard, who piloted an earlier version of the plane across the U.S. in 2013, are no strangers to adventure. Borschberg is a former fighter pilot, and Piccard was part of the first team to circumnavigate the earth nonstop in a balloon in 1999.

Olive oil has long been linked with lower levels of cholesterol, blood pressure and a multitude of other health benefits. And while food companies have attempted to get it into the diets of more people by adding it to margarine, a team of scientists has gone a step further. The Italian researchers have discovered a way to convert the liquid state of extra virgin olive oil into a gel, without the need for other solids. Italian researchers have discovered a way to convert the liquid state of extra virgin olive oil into a gel, without the need for other solids. The so-called Gel Oil comes in different flavours (shown above) Known as Gel Oil, the food scientists said it can be added to salads and sandwiches, used in cooking and can be flavoured. Variations include lemon and basil. Olive oil (pictured) has long been linked with lower levels of cholesterol, blood pressure and a multitude of other health benefits . The discovery was made by 10 chemical engineers from the Italian University of Calabria in the southern town of Arcavacata. They used a technique called 'organogelazione' which involves subjecting the properties of certain molecules known in the food industry, such as emulsifiers, to a range of temperatures. When these molecules are heated and mixed they were found to form new structures. The university's food engineering department headed by Professor Bruno de Cindio said: 'In this network structure, the oil remains 'trapped' within the changing texture and transforms itself, in the first stage, into a gel form and, in a second stage, into a creamy spreadable paste.' He added that said that this also means it can be produced in various consistencies from a slightly stickier version ideal for dressing salads and other foods to a more solid variation that can be spread like margarine or butter on bread. The innovation has been patented and the team said it sees huge potential particularly among people with dietary restrictions or moral objections to dairy products such as vegans. The team are now hoping to create a company to sell Gel Oil and already developing variations flavoured with lemon and basil. Valeria Greco, one of the researchers of the team, said: 'Our idea certainly meets the needs of a new customer profile.

Researchers at the Universities of Glasgow and Lisbon and private firm Mosaiques Diagnostics in Germany investigated the effect of olive oil on heart health in a group of 69 men and women who did not normally eat it.

Phenolics are natural compounds found in plants, including olives, thought to be responsible for the protective effect of olive oil. The research team applied a new diagnostic technology by examining urine samples for a range of peptides (produced by the breakdown of proteins) already identified as biomarkers of diseases such as coronary artery disease (CAD).

If people in the UK replaced part of their fat intake with olive oil, it could have an ever greater effect on reducing the risk of heart disease.’

Donna Oettinger and her baby Zaki died on a train track after the mother was told she couldn't getpsychiatric help, an inquest has heard . A mother cradling her three-year-old son lay down in front of a train after being told by her psychiatrist 'I can't help you', an inquest has heard. Donna Oettinger, 41, had been denied urgent psychiatric help in the months before she and her son Zaki died on train tracks in south London in March 2013, it was claimed. Just three months before her death, she took an overdose while visiting a friend in Yorkshire and was 'disappointed' to have survived, the inquest was told. A care worker treating the accounts assistant from Croydon in south London then told her family she needed 'urgent' home care on her discharge. Despite being promised this by mental health bosses, Ms Oettinger was then told the home team could not provide psychiatric help, the inquest heard. An inquest into the two deaths at Croydon Coroner's Court today heard her mother Carol Oettinger describe the family's battle to secure the right therapy for her daughter. She told the inquest her daughter went alone to visit friend Frances Felt in Yorkshire to 'work on her anxiety' in December 2012 but took an overdose. A day later she was seen by Paul Willison, a social worker in Rotherham, who recommended that she received 'intensive home therapy'. After agreeing to receive treatment and telling doctors she recognised the consequences of her behaviour, she was then deemed 'not treatable'. In a statement given to the inquest Mr Willison said he contacted health workers in Croydon with his concerns and said: '[They] said there was a home treatment team that covered Donna's locality.' However her mother told the court that on her daughter's return to London, a psychiatric nurse said this was not the case. Mrs Oettinger told the inquest: 'We said Donna had just come out of intensive care, Paul Willison had faxed his concerns through saying she needed urgent treatment. She said 'we didn't do urgent treatment here.' In desperation the family turned to her psychiatrist, Dr Hemanth Rao, but Mrs Oettinger added: 'Donna said she was unhappy to have survived her suicide attempt. 'I said to Dr Rao about Mr Willison's report... she was recommended home treatments, there was nothing in actual fact. Dr Rao said he couldn't help us.' Mrs Oettinger had starting suffering depression after going to Zaki's father, Mohammed El Shaer, in Egypt . Trainee psychologist Dr Hermanth Rao, said: 'Potentially any patient can benefit from home treatment. 'I don't really know how the home treatment team (HTT) works in Rotherham, there is a suggestion that there is some psychological treatment that they could give. 'However in Tamworth Road in London the HTT is not experienced in providing psychiatric therapy. 'In Rotherham they said the HTT is necessary because of the skills of the team, but the same may not be same in London. 'I also suspect that the HTT threshold in Rotherham might be much lower than in London.' Dr Rao said that a faxed note from Rotherham social worker Paul Willison had not been 'uploaded' to computer systems. In a statement the social worker told the inquest that he had advised Ms Oettinger was given home treatment and checked that it would be available in Croydon. After seeing Ms Oettinger on return from Yorkshire Dr Rao advised that she was assigned a 'care coordinator' to be provided through the South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust. However a miscommunication meant that the intended nurse, Elizabeth Oduntan, was not informed, the inquest heard. Ms Oettinger was seen by the nurse for an assessment on December 17, just days after her failed suicide bid. She admitted to Coroner that she had not checked the notes faxed by the Rotherham team. She said: 'It's not something I would usually do, but I can't remember why I didn't contact Rotherham.' When asked if she agreed she should have she replied 'yes, if I had the time.' Instead the nurse said it was a 'duty crisis' and her only objective was to make sure her patient was on the right medication. 'The immediate problem presented to me was how is she doing to be safe,' she told the inquest. The coroner highlighted that without contacting the doctors who treated her for her overdose she wouldn't have been able to give the correct advice, to which the nurse agreed. Shaheen Rahman, representing Ms Oettinger's family, said the nurse had done 'the very minimum' considering she was assessing someone who had just tried to kill themselves. As a result Ms Oettinger was not immediately referred to the HTT. She was admitted to A&E at the Mayday Hospital, Croydon, on January 17 after telling her sister that she wanted to end her life. It was not until then that Dr Rao finally made a recommendation that the nurse be assigned as her care coordinator. But he no longer had any contact with the family after mid-January as the trainee, on a six-month rotation scheme, left the clinic. The inquest heard how Ms Oettinger began suffering with severe anxiety after a period of cocaine use that came to an end in Spring 2012 when she went to see Zaki's Egyptian father, Mohammed El Shaer. But going clean left her terrified she had caused herself permanent harm and, through tears, Mrs Oettinger said: 'Donna was worried about her mental health, she had panic attacks and suffered with anxiety. 'She kept saying to me 'am I going to get better?' I said 'of course you are going to get better.' In September 2012, the family arranged to see a private psychiatrist who diagnosed an anxiety disorder, but they were told that they would have to wait up to 18 months for therapy sessions on the NHS. Her mother said: 'I wanted to take her to see somebody so there could be some reassurance that she hadn't damaged herself, that there were possibilities of her getting better.' Ms Oettinger was left to cope with the medication and suffered with side effects, but struggled at work as her illness affected her concentration. The mother and baby were seen lying on the tracks at Riddlesdown Station, before their deaths . Her condition deteriorated to the point she had to leave work and could not look after her son properly, the inquest heard. 'She wanted to get better. I looked after Zaki, even though Donna was ill she would give him a kiss in the morning and at night when he went to bed,' her mother told the inquest. Then in October 2012 she began to make threats to kill herself. Her mother broke down as she gave a harrowing account of stopping her daughter throwing herself in front of a train after a trip to buy a coat for Zaki. She said: 'We got to the station and she said 'I'm going to throw myself under the next train.' We sat down and I had my legs over her to make her sit there. Zaki was in the pushchair.' The inquest heard how Ms Oettinger threatened to hurt herself on two other occasions with a knife and was referred to a specialist psychologist with the South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust in October 2012. Ms Oettinger and her son were struck by a service from Uckfield to London Bridge on March 22, 2013. The inquest heard a harrowing account from train driver Patrick Cusak who spotted her jump onto tracks with Zaki as he neared the station, just yards from the home they shared with her mother in Croydon. They had walked to the station from their south London home. A police report said: 'There was nothing in her demeanour to suggest they are anything other than mother and son on their way to the station' In a statement the train driver said: 'She jumped down, I think she almost rolled over to cuddle the child. She had a gentle arm, a consoling arm around the child.' The pair were pronounced dead at the scene. A police investigation said the pair's final journey to the station was caught on CCTV and there was 'no doubt' anything had been dropped on tracks. A report said 'there was nothing in her demeanour to suggest they are anything other than mother and son on their way to the station.' The two-day inquest continues.

Trainee psychologist Dr Hermanth Rao, said: 'Potentially any patient can benefit from home treatment. 'I don't really know how the home treatment team (HTT) works in Rotherham, there is a suggestion that there is some psychological treatment that they could give. 'However in Tamworth Road in London the HTT is not experienced in providing psychiatric therapy. 'In Rotherham they said the HTT is necessary because of the skills of the team, but the same may not be same in London. 'I also suspect that the HTT threshold in Rotherham might be much lower than in London.' Dr Rao said that a faxed note from Rotherham social worker Paul Willison had not been 'uploaded' to computer systems. In a statement the social worker told the inquest that he had advised Ms Oettinger was given home treatment and checked that it would be available in Croydon. After seeing Ms Oettinger on return from Yorkshire Dr Rao advised that she was assigned a 'care coordinator' to be provided through the South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust. However a miscommunication meant that the intended nurse, Elizabeth Oduntan, was not informed, the inquest heard. Ms Oettinger was seen by the nurse for an assessment on December 17, just days after her failed suicide bid. She admitted to Coroner that she had not checked the notes faxed by the Rotherham team. She said: 'It's not something I would usually do, but I can't remember why I didn't contact Rotherham.' When asked if she agreed she should have she replied 'yes, if I had the time.' Instead the nurse said it was a 'duty crisis' and her only objective was to make sure her patient was on the right medication. 'The immediate problem presented to me was how is she doing to be safe,' she told the inquest. The coroner highlighted that without contacting the doctors who treated her for her overdose she wouldn't have been able to give the correct advice, to which the nurse agreed. Shaheen Rahman, representing Ms Oettinger's family, said the nurse had done 'the very minimum' considering she was assessing someone who had just tried to kill themselves. As a result Ms Oettinger was not immediately referred to the HTT. She was admitted to A&E at the Mayday Hospital, Croydon, on January 17 after telling her sister that she wanted to end her life. It was not until then that Dr Rao finally made a recommendation that the nurse be assigned as her care coordinator. But he no longer had any contact with the family after mid-January as the trainee, on a six-month rotation scheme, left the clinic. The inquest heard how Ms Oettinger began suffering with severe anxiety after a period of cocaine use that came to an end in Spring 2012 when she went to see Zaki's Egyptian father, Mohammed El Shaer. But going clean left her terrified she had caused herself permanent harm and, through tears, Mrs Oettinger said: 'Donna was worried about her mental health, she had panic attacks and suffered with anxiety. 'She kept saying to me 'am I going to get better?' I said 'of course you are going to get better.' In September 2012, the family arranged to see a private psychiatrist who diagnosed an anxiety disorder, but they were told that they would have to wait up to 18 months for therapy sessions on the NHS. Her mother said: 'I wanted to take her to see somebody so there could be some reassurance that she hadn't damaged herself, that there were possibilities of her getting better.' Ms Oettinger was left to cope with the medication and suffered with side effects, but struggled at work as her illness affected her concentration. The mother and baby were seen lying on the tracks at Riddlesdown Station, before their deaths . Her condition deteriorated to the point she had to leave work and could not look after her son properly, the inquest heard. 'She wanted to get better. I looked after Zaki, even though Donna was ill she would give him a kiss in the morning and at night when he went to bed,' her mother told the inquest. Then in October 2012 she began to make threats to kill herself. Her mother broke down as she gave a harrowing account of stopping her daughter throwing herself in front of a train after a trip to buy a coat for Zaki. She said: 'We got to the station and she said 'I'm going to throw myself under the next train.' We sat down and I had my legs over her to make her sit there. Zaki was in the pushchair.' The inquest heard how Ms Oettinger threatened to hurt herself on two other occasions with a knife and was referred to a specialist psychologist with the South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust in October 2012. Ms Oettinger and her son were struck by a service from Uckfield to London Bridge on March 22, 2013. The inquest heard a harrowing account from train driver Patrick Cusak who spotted her jump onto tracks with Zaki as he neared the station, just yards from the home they shared with her mother in Croydon. They had walked to the station from their south London home. A police report said: 'There was nothing in her demeanour to suggest they are anything other than mother and son on their way to the station' In a statement the train driver said: 'She jumped down, I think she almost rolled over to cuddle the child. She had a gentle arm, a consoling arm around the child.' The pair were pronounced dead at the scene. A police investigation said the pair's final journey to the station was caught on CCTV and there was 'no doubt' anything had been dropped on tracks. A report said 'there was nothing in her demeanour to suggest they are anything other than mother and son on their way to the station.' The two-day inquest continues.

There was something unwholesome about the way Cesc Fabregas’ romance with Barcelona ended. Perhaps breaking such a bond required a greater explanation, hence the story on the club’s website last summer that was really quite damning and unique in its detail. The post read: ‘Despite glowing starts to each campaign, Cesc’s contributions to the cause gradually decreased as each season drew to a close. ‘From being someone who joined in with the attack, supplying and scoring goals, the magic tended to fade later on in each season. He only scored one, six and one goals in the last 24 games of each season. Cesc Fabregas (left) has a history of going quiet during the second half of the season in terms of goals . ‘For some reason, he was never as good in the second half of a season as in the first.’ To apply some context, such statements usually run to a confirmation that a player has left. If a club is feeling particularly venomous, it might omit the part where a player is thanked for his contribution. Maybe the close relationship with Fabregas, the prodigal son who returned and then left for again, meant they felt compelled to explain the step of letting him join Chelsea for £30million. The talented playmaker had a blistering start to the season and has racked up 15 assists despite his slump . But whatever the motive, there was a deep and intriguing point in the message. Barcelona had spotted a real trend and the rational among Chelsea’s fans are probably starting to see it. That’s not to overreact and criticise a player who has arguably had the greatest impact on Chelsea’s title push. Fabregas has been magnificent, a deep-lying playmaker (usually) who has the engine to roam, the sense to dictate tempo and the guile to create. First half v Second half of the season . 09-10: 19 v 9 . 10-11: 9 v 5 . 11-12: 13 v 4 . 13-14: 16 v 5 . 14-15: 15 v 2 . His number of assists is astonishing – 15 in the Premier League, which is seven more than his next domestic rival. Alongside Nemanja Matic, Chelsea have a legitimately world-class midfield platform. But on Wednesday night Fabregas looked flat. A subjective view, certainly, but the numbers are showing the return of a curious pattern. He has neither scored nor assisted in his past nine games in all competitions, seven of which were starts. His last assist was against Swansea on January 17. His previous longest run without a goal or assist this season was two. The former Barcelona man suffered the fate at Barcelona during his time there before he was sold to Chelsea . That is not to say he is playing badly in this spell. Far from it. He was poor when he came on against Bradford in the FA Cup and was off the pace in the league game against Burnley, but generally has been among Chelsea’s best performers. And yet the incision is not what it was. Looking at league figures alone, he managed 15 goals or assists in the first half of the season and has so far scored or created only two in the second half. It is a trend that goes back all the way to the 2009-10 season, Fabregas’s penultimate campaign at Arsenal, when his respective figures were 19 and nine. In 2010-11 they were nine and five and in 2011-12, his first back at Barcelona, he scored or created 13 in the first half of the season and four on the stretch. Fabregas clashes with Blaise Matuidi during a night of frustration in the Champions League in London . Last season, it was even more pronounced – 16 going out and five coming back in. It is a mystery, not least because it would be unfair to conclude he is in poor form. But he is less incisive, regardless of whether it is for individual or team reasons. Certainly, his role within the side has tended to change at times recently, with Jose Mourinho occasionally switching between 4-2-3-1 and 4-3-3. And there has also been a more restrained manner in how the team is playing, perhaps because there is a greater emphasis on protecting what they have in the league rather chasing a bigger advantage. In any case, the numbers make interesting reading for the player. He certainly won’t thank Barcelona for flagging it up. The Spanish international is setting a trend and began to show signs of flagging during his time at Arsenal .

Cesc Fabregas has previously seen his form slump during the season .

Taco Bell has launched a new advert for their breakfast menu where they appear to compare competitors McDonalds to a communist dictatorship.

It is a continuation of an ad campaign last year that featured real-life people named Ronald McDonald professing their love for Taco Bell offerings. This prompted McDonalds to tweet a picture of Ronald McDonald kneeling down to pet a frail Chihuahua, which was once the mascot for Taco Bell. The launch of the Taco Bell breakfast menu has helped to drive up sales at the chain, with CEO Brian Niccol saying breakfast has been holding steady at six per cent of sales. It is not clear what impact this is having on McDonald's Corp, which has been struggling to hold on to customers amid intensifying competition. But others have also been pushing into the breakfast category more aggressively, including Starbucks, which revamped its sandwiches last year.

It is a continuation of an ad campaign last year that featured real-life people named Ronald McDonald professing their love for Taco Bell offerings. This prompted McDonalds to tweet a picture of Ronald McDonald kneeling down to pet a frail Chihuahua, which was once the mascot for Taco Bell. The launch of the Taco Bell breakfast menu has helped to drive up sales at the chain, with CEO Brian Niccol saying breakfast has been holding steady at six per cent of sales. It is not clear what impact this is having on McDonald's Corp, which has been struggling to hold on to customers amid intensifying competition. But others have also been pushing into the breakfast category more aggressively, including Starbucks, which revamped its sandwiches last year.

The home of Manchester United star Angel Di Maria has been put up for sale just weeks after he suffered a terrifying raid while eating dinner with his family inside. Burglars used scaffolding poles to smash their way in to his home through patio doors while the Argentina winger, his wife Jorgelina and one-year-old daughter Mia were at the Cheshire mansion. Now the sprawling home, which Di Maria rents from a private landlord, has been put on the market for £4.1million amid reports that his wife is too scared to return to the property.

Burglars are believed to have used scaffolding poles to smash their way in to his home through patio doors while the Argentina winger, his wife Jorgelina and one-year-old daughter Mia were at the Cheshire mansion . The mansion, which is set in manicured grounds in Prestbury, Cheshire, is now on the market for £4.1million . Di Maria and his family reportedly moved into a luxury hotel after the incident with round-the-clock security keeping them safe. They now look set to move away for good, with the luxury mansion up for sale. It has also been suggested that a recent drop in form can be attributed to the break-in. The Daily Mail's Martin Samuel writes: 'Searching for clues to the recent decline of Angel di Maria, the break-in that occurred at his house in January cannot be overlooked. Di Maria’s form had dropped off before that, true, but not as alarmingly as it has in recent weeks. 'He wasn’t getting hooked at half-time before this event. 'Alvaro Negredo suffered a similarly shattering blow that ended his family’s love for their new country. He was not the same player after it happened. Di Maria is believed to be relocating his family to a new, high-level apartment following their traumatic experience.'

A woman raised by two lesbians has provoked controversy after publicly announcing that she is against gay marriage because she says she missed out on having her father in her life when growing up. Heather Barwick, a 31-year-old mother-of-four from South Carolina, says her mother left her father when she was 2 or 3 so that she could move in with the woman she loved. 'Gay community, I am your daughter. My mom raised me with her same-sex partner back in the '80s and '90s,' writes Barwick for the conservative publication The Federalist. Heather Barwick, a 31-year-old mother-of-four from South Carolina, says she is against gay marriage because she missed out on having her father around when she was growing up . 'I'm writing to you because I'm letting myself out of the closet: I don't support gay marriage. But it might not be for the reasons that you think. It's not because you're gay. I love you, so much. It's because of the nature of the same-sex relationship itself.' Barwick recalls growing up in a very liberal and open-minded suburb surrounded by a 'tight-knit community of gay and lesbian friends' and says her mother's partner 'treated me as if I was her own daughter'. She also admits that her biological father 'wasn't a great guy,' and 'didn't bother coming around anymore.' Despite being an advocate for gay marriage in her 20s, Barwick now says she's had a change of heart. 'Same-sex marriage and parenting withholds either a mother or father from a child while telling him or her that it doesn't matter. That it's all the same. But it's not,' she writes. 'A lot of us, a lot of your kids, are hurting. My father's absence created a huge hole in me, and I ached every day for a dad. I loved my mom's partner, but another mom could never have replaced the father I lost.' Abigail Garner, an LGBT family-rights educator and author of the book Families Like Mine: Children Of Gay Parents Tell It Like It Is, who was raised by two dads, told Yahoo Parenting that Barwick's reasoning didn't make much sense. 'While I sympathize with Heather's pain caused by being abandoned by her heterosexual father, her pain has nothing to do with same-sex marriage,' she said. 'We are all entitled to our personal narratives, but I strongly disagree with Heather's contrived attempt to offer her personal story as a case for blocking other families' access to marriage rights.' Speaking to Christian publication World, Barwick said she only found healing for her 'father wound' after she began attending church with her future husband. 'It really wasn't until I came to Christ that I felt that burden lifted off of me. And I'm not bitter. I'm not angry,' she said. 'I forgive my dad.' Barwick said there had been long-term consequences to going up with two mothers. 'I'm not gay, but the relationship that was modeled before me was a woman loving a woman. So I've struggled as an adult figuring out how to be in a relationship with my husband.' Barwick is also one of six people raised by gay parents who signed a public letter of support this week for designers Dolce & Gabbana following their controversial statements about gay parents.

More than half of young adults in Los Angeles can fluently speak a language other than English, despite the fact that the city's percentage of foreign born residents is decreasing. Fifty-seven per cent of those aged 18 to 34, in LA spoke a language other than English at home, beating out Miami which had 55 per cent and San Jose with 54 per cent. Roughly a quarter of the 'Millenial' generation nationwide uses another language, according to the American Community Survey. A map of young adults' ability to speak a language other than English uses dark red for counties where more than 40 per cent of 18 to 34-year-olds communicate in a foreign language at home, and lighter shades of pink for smaller proportions of the population . Roughly 60 per cent of LA city residents age five and older speak a language other than English, with Spanish the most popular language among them. In addition to a large number of Latino immigrants, Los Angeles also has large Middle Eastern, Asian, Middle Eastern and Eastern European communities. However, the proportion of foreign-born adults in Los Angeles has actually decreased 9 percentage points to a little less than a third since 1990, and a large number of the Millenials with foreign language skills are thought to be bilingual. The rise in bilingualism is probably caused by children continuing to speak their parents' tongues in addition to English, according to Voice of America. UCLA professor Raul Hinojosa said that the children and grandchildren of immigrants historically stopped learning to speak the same language of their ancestors, but that there has been a 'sea change in the last ten years'. California has seen a growing percentage of its young adults speaking foreign languages (bars in blue) since the 1980s. The US as a whole (pink bars) has also seen its rate increase at a slower pace . Hinojosa said that languages beyond Spanish, second and third-generation immigrants will be encouraged to keep knowledge of Mandarin and other languages. The American Community Survey collected data between 2009 and 2013 and found that 23.3 per cent of the population was between 18 and 34 years old, a fall from 30 per cent in 1980. Data showed that the generation is less likely to be married and more likely to have gone to college than three decades ago, as well as more likely to speak a foreign language. Areas that showed the highest rates for speaking something other than English were near the US-Mexico border in California and Texas. New Jersey was found to be the third most likely state for a young adult to speak a foreign language at home. West Virginia ranked last for the statistic with 3.63 per cent and Middlesborough, Kentucky, was the metro with the lowest percentage of young adults who could speak a foreign language with 0.034. In contrast to Los Angeles, many US cities and states have seen significant increases in their foreign-born populations.

A talented Chinese lawyer who was banned from working in California because of the 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act has been finally granted a license, 89 years after his death. 'It was also a blow to countless others who, like Chang, aspired to become a lawyer only to have their dream deferred on account of their race, alienage, or nationality,' the unanimous court decision reads. 'It is past time to acknowledge that the discriminatory exclusion of Chang from the State Bar of California was a grievous wrong.' Struggle: Hong Yen Chang, from Guangdong Province, China, travelled to the U.S. in 1872 when he was 12 years old. He studied law at Colombia, graduating in 1886 with 'high markings from the examiners'. But he was banned from practising in California as he was 'a person of Mongolian nativity' Defiant: In later life, Hong served as a banker and a diplomat, and was awarded a doctorate of law by the Chinese government. But he was never granted a license to practise law in California . Hong Yen Chang, from Xiangshan, Guangdong Province, was chosen to travel to the U.S. in 1872 when he was 12 years old, as part of a Chinese Educational Mission. He studied law at Yale and Colombia, from where he graduated in 1886 with 'high markings from the examiners'. However, for the rest of his life he faced a struggle to practise law, as under 19th Century legislation 'a person of Mongolian nativity' would not be accepted to the bar. In 1888, after long deliberations, New York State passed An Act for the Relief of Hong Yen Chang, which waived the Chinese Exclusion Act in the state, allowing him to receive a license to practise law in New York. But the Californian authorities said that they did not recognise the New York ruling, leaving Hong unable to work there. On Monday, the California Supreme Court granted a . posthumous law license to Hong, known as America's first Chinese-born lawyer. This came in response to petitions made by Hong's descendants, as well as the Asian Pacific American Law Students . Association (APALSA) at the University of California. 'Even if we cannot undo history, we can acknowledge it and, . in so doing, accord a full measure of recognition to Chang's . pathbreaking efforts to become the first lawyer of Chinese . descent in the United States,' the court said in its unanimous . ruling. 'More than a century later, the legal and policy . underpinnings of our 1890 decision have been discredited.' The California high court blamed hostility toward Chinese, . cultural tensions and xenophobia for Hong's plight, as well as a range of state . laws designed 'to disadvantage Chinese immigrants' who moved to . California with other immigrants following the Gold Rush of the . mid-1800s. In later life, Hong served as a banker and a diplomat, and was awarded a doctorate of law by the Chinese government. He was Director of Chinese naval students at Berkeley, California, until his retirement in 1920. He died in 1926, after which his family began the fight to have him recognised in the state. Hong's grand-niece, Rachelle Chong, is also a lawyer. She made history as the first Asian-American to be appointed to the Federal Communications Commission and the California Public Utilities Commission. Three of Hong's other descendants are lawyers. 'We are absolutely thrilled with the ruling,' said Chong. The longstanding injustice, she said had been a sore spot among Hong's extended family for decades.

He has already made abolishing the Affordable Care Act the centerpiece of his young presidential campaign, and once spoke for 21 hours straight on the floor of the U.S. Senate in a bid to block its funding. But now Ted Cruz says he and his family will be the latest to use the system, signing up for medical insurance coverage through the Obamacare law's government-run marketplaces. Cruz's wife Heidi has taken an unpaid leave of absence from her job at Goldman Sachs to campaign with him – and lost her employer-funded plan in the process. As Democrats gleefully mocked the irony, though, Cruz insists he's just following the law. OBAMASCARE: Ted Cruz announced his presidential run on Monday, the same day his wife took a leave of absence from her job – forgoing the family's medical insurance . PEDIATRICS ON LINE ONE: The Cruz daughters, Catherine (left) and Caroline (right) need a health plan and for now the Obamacare system will have to do – while their father works to 'rip it out, root and branch' TRANSITION: Heidi Cruz left her Goldman Sachs 'Cadillac Plan' behind when she took a leave of absence to campaign for her husband . 'We will presumably go on the exchange and sign up for health care and we're in the process of transitioning over to do that,' Cruz, a Republican senator from Texas, told The Des Moines Register on Tuesday. The exchanges, created by the Obamacare law, are designed to be state-specific insurance marketplaces where the uninsured can find coverage. Using them is mandatory for middle-income Americans who want to receive federal government subsidies to help pay their premiums. The Affordable Care Act originally left members of Congress alone, but Iowa Republican Senator Chuck Grassley famously inserted a 'poison pill' amendment requiring them – and their staff members – to participate like other Americans if they lacked insurance from other sources. 'The more that Congress experiences the laws it passes, the better,' Grassley said back then. Democrats didn't budge, and the provision now requires Cruz to join millions who have signed up for Obamacare-brokered coverage. He could get the last laught, however, using his experience to construct a first-hand testimonial about the law's shortcomings. Liberal lawmakers were mum Tuesday on the development, passing up an easy opportunity to call Cruz a hypocrite. Daily Mail Online asked five Senate offices and five House offices, all Democratic, for comment. None would offer one. Planned Parenthood, America's biggest abortion lobby, did use the 'H' word. It has defended the Obamacare law, largely because it forces insurers to provide contraception coverage. 'Luckily for Sen. Ted Cruz, hypocrisy isn't a pre-existing condition,' the group tweeted. The Democratic National Committee weighed in, but offered only a half-swing at the softball question. 'The Affordable Care Act, by design, helps Americans who have gaps in employment get coverage, and it's working,' DNC National Press Secretary Holly Shulman told Daily Mail Online. 'We encourage others to follow presidential candidate Ted Cruz to www.healthcare.gov and get covered.' The Houston firebrand won't exactly get a grassroots experience when he enrolls, however. GLEE: The Democratic National Committee piled on, but never called Cruz a hypocrite . THe 'H' WORD: Abortion lobby Planned Parenthood heaped on the scorn at Cruz's predicament . The Washington, D.C. city government extends congressional offices a sweetheart deal that's not part of the Affordable Care Act itself, allowing federal lawmakers and their aides to enroll through the city's Small Business Health Options Program. That system was designed for 'small businesses' with fewer than 50 employees. The United States Congress employs more than 20,000 people. It also makes medical insurance customers eligible for payments from their employers for most of the premiums. The Obama administration's Office of Personnel Management made the arrangement legal by quietly issuing a rule just before the Obamacare law took effect – and setting the typical reimbursement level at 75 per cent. Some customers, including well-paid senators, will get that benefit even though their income levels would be too high to qualify for subsidies if they had to buy coverage on the open exchanges like millions of others. Cruz told CNN on Tuesday that he has no choice but to 'follow the text of every law, even laws I disagree with.' 'It's one of the real differences – if you look at President Obama and the lawlessness, if he disagrees with a law he simply refuses to follow it or claims the authority to unilaterally change,' Cruz said. NOT TOO LATE, TED: Even though the Obamacare open-enrollment period is over, Americans can still sign up if they 'have certain life changes in 2015' He also took a verbal swing at Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, who has allowed professional staffers on Senate committees to exempt themselves. 'Harry Reid and the Senate Democrats didn't want to be under the same rules as the American people,' he sniped. But Cruz still believes the Obamacare law should be killed – 'ripped out, root and branch' is how he put it during an Iowa event in January. 'And I believe it will be,' he told the paper, the largest and most influential in the early presidential caucus state of Iowa. 'I believe in 2017 a new president, a Republican president will sign legislation repealing every word of it,' he insisted. 'There are a fair number of Republicans in Washington and elsewhere who have quietly and privatively given up on that fight and I have not.'

Presidential candidate launched campaign Monday on the promise of replacing the Affordable Care Act with something more GOP-friendly . But since his wife left her job to campaign with him, she lost the family's medical insurance coverage – forcing them onto the Obamacare exchanges . Law forces members of Congress who need coverage to buy it through government-run marketplaces . Democrats poked fun at the irony but Cruz insists he has to follow the laws Congress passes – even those he wants to see repealed .

Using them is mandatory for middle-income Americans who want to receive federal government subsidies to help pay their premiums. The Affordable Care Act originally left members of Congress alone, but Iowa Republican Senator Chuck Grassley famously inserted a 'poison pill' amendment requiring them – and their staff members – to participate like other Americans if they lacked insurance from other sources. 'The more that Congress experiences the laws it passes, the better,' Grassley said back then. Democrats didn't budge, and the provision now requires Cruz to join millions who have signed up for Obamacare-brokered coverage. He could get the last laught, however, using his experience to construct a first-hand testimonial about the law's shortcomings. Liberal lawmakers were mum Tuesday on the development, passing up an easy opportunity to call Cruz a hypocrite. Daily Mail Online asked five Senate offices and five House offices, all Democratic, for comment. None would offer one. Planned Parenthood, America's biggest abortion lobby, did use the 'H' word. It has defended the Obamacare law, largely because it forces insurers to provide contraception coverage. 'Luckily for Sen. Ted Cruz, hypocrisy isn't a pre-existing condition,' the group tweeted. The Democratic National Committee weighed in, but offered only a half-swing at the softball question. 'The Affordable Care Act, by design, helps Americans who have gaps in employment get coverage, and it's working,' DNC National Press Secretary Holly Shulman told Daily Mail Online. 'We encourage others to follow presidential candidate Ted Cruz to www.healthcare.gov and get covered.' The Houston firebrand won't exactly get a grassroots experience when he enrolls, however. GLEE: The Democratic National Committee piled on, but never called Cruz a hypocrite . THe 'H' WORD: Abortion lobby Planned Parenthood heaped on the scorn at Cruz's predicament . The Washington, D.C. city government extends congressional offices a sweetheart deal that's not part of the Affordable Care Act itself, allowing federal lawmakers and their aides to enroll through the city's Small Business Health Options Program. That system was designed for 'small businesses' with fewer than 50 employees. The United States Congress employs more than 20,000 people. It also makes medical insurance customers eligible for payments from their employers for most of the premiums. The Obama administration's Office of Personnel Management made the arrangement legal by quietly issuing a rule just before the Obamacare law took effect – and setting the typical reimbursement level at 75 per cent. Some customers, including well-paid senators, will get that benefit even though their income levels would be too high to qualify for subsidies if they had to buy coverage on the open exchanges like millions of others. Cruz told CNN on Tuesday that he has no choice but to 'follow the text of every law, even laws I disagree with.' 'It's one of the real differences – if you look at President Obama and the lawlessness, if he disagrees with a law he simply refuses to follow it or claims the authority to unilaterally change,' Cruz said. NOT TOO LATE, TED: Even though the Obamacare open-enrollment period is over, Americans can still sign up if they 'have certain life changes in 2015' He also took a verbal swing at Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, who has allowed professional staffers on Senate committees to exempt themselves. 'Harry Reid and the Senate Democrats didn't want to be under the same rules as the American people,' he sniped. But Cruz still believes the Obamacare law should be killed – 'ripped out, root and branch' is how he put it during an Iowa event in January. 'And I believe it will be,' he told the paper, the largest and most influential in the early presidential caucus state of Iowa. 'I believe in 2017 a new president, a Republican president will sign legislation repealing every word of it,' he insisted. 'There are a fair number of Republicans in Washington and elsewhere who have quietly and privatively given up on that fight and I have not.' [/INST] Presidential candidate launched campaign Monday on the promise of replacing the Affordable Care Act with something more GOP-friendly . But since his wife left her job to campaign with him, she lost the family's medical insurance coverage – forcing them onto the Obamacare exchanges . Law forces members of Congress who need coverage to buy it through government-run marketplaces . Democrats poked fun at the irony but Cruz insists he has to follow the laws Congress passes – even those he wants to see repealed . </s>

The grand Spanish port of Vigo, with its high-rise apartments overlooking the north Atlantic, is no match for Brentford on a winter’s night. But that was when Jose Ignacio Peleteiro Ramallo — or Jota for short — announced himself to English football and gave Brentford fans a first inkling that they could end a 68-year wait to return to the top flight of English football. Now, after a mid-season stumble following the bizarre news that their manager Mark Warburton was going to be replaced at the end of the season regardless of whether the club earn promotion, they are entertaining realistic hopes of becoming one of the smallest clubs to have graced the Premier League. Brentford playmaker Jota has been one of the club's standout players this season as they fight for promotion . The Spaniard joined Brentford from Celta Vigo last summer and has impressed in England's second tier . Jota dribbles with the ball ahead of  Watford's Ikechi Anya (right) during the match at Griffin Park in February . Brentford manager Mark Warburton will leave the club at the end of this season regardless of how they finish . The winter’s night was last November when Jota left fly a stoppage-time winner over arch rivals Fulham. It was their first League meeting for 18 years and made sure Brentford’s neighbours knew there was a change of the guard in west London. Quite something for a 23-year-old who struggled at Celta Vigo and then with Real Madrid’s reserves. ‘That derby was intense, a special moment for me. It felt I’d really arrived at Brentford that night,’ said Jota, who will face Fulham again at Craven Cottage on Friday. ‘As soon as I came here everybody was telling me about Fulham. After the goal everybody was stopping me in the street saying, “You’re a hero, thank you, thank you!” People work all week and we want to put a smile on their faces.’ Jota is relishing the competition in the Championship and hopes to help Brentford return to the top-flight . Jota strikes the ball at Brentford's training complex during his interview with MailSport . Speaking in Spanish, Jota sits inside a hut at their modest training complex with seven games — or possibly more in the play-offs — to achieve what appeared unobtainable. He was relaxed, at ease with the club’s situation despite the upheaval in their management structure and laughed in agreement at the notion that no team appear to want to take charge of the promotion race, such is the absurdly close top eight. Just one point separated the top five a fortnight ago. Jota was open on the serious problems they encountered after February’s shocking developments regarding Warburton’s future. The popular boss will leave at the end of the season to be replaced by a foreign coach who buys into owner Matthew Benham’s continental philosophy and Jota admitted the news seriously affected the squad. ‘For a week or so we dropped our levels,’ he said. ‘You hear rumours… you don’t know what’s going to happen. It was a short period of confusion but we’re now focused. ‘We’re all still united but it’s never the best thing for something like that to happen in the middle of the season.’ Jota celebrates scoring the winning goal for Brentford against rivals Fulham at at Griffin Park in November . They have levelled just in time and are one point off the play-offs. Brentford have an ace up their sleeve, too. It was Jota’s winner against Alaves to seal tiny Eibar’s rise to La Liga this time last year. He wants to do it again but in front of 90,000 at Wembley. ‘Everyone has told me about this final at Wembley,’ he added. ‘Achieve that in front of these supporters who have been so good to me? It’d be amazing. This would be truly historic, just as it was for Eibar. But we won the league there so this would be more dramatic.’ The similarities between Brentford and Eibar are stark. Both have populations of 27,000 and while Brentford have not seen the top flight since 1947, Eibar embarked on their first premier campaign in August. Using his best English, Jota is trying to draw on last year’s experience and explain it to others in the squad. Learning the language has not come naturally but assimilating to our game has. ‘There’s probably more space here than in Spain,’ he said. ‘There’s plenty of opportunity to construct attacks here, create chances. That’s the way we want to play at Brentford. Being able to play in a similar way to back home has helped me integrate into the game over here. We’re given time on the ball, told to express ourselves. We play some of the best football in the Championship. ‘There are a lot of teams who are trying to play a more beautiful style of play. I’ve been most impressed by Derby County. Jota believes that the Championship is 'among the best five leagues in Europe' and has praised its intensity . ‘Everything is massively competitive. It comes down to the mentality of the clubs here. They’re all big stadiums, famous clubs. They want to get to that next level. It’s probably more intense than I was expecting. Everybody has expensive players, too.’ Jota did not come cheap, costing progressive Brentford £1.5 million in the summer, and has been watched by Premier League clubs. The top flight is where he wants to be and his girlfriend is in the process of moving over to London. ‘England is famous for having the best league in the world and the Championship is also a brilliant division,’ he said. ‘It’s more intense, physical. I’ve watched all this from afar and knew what I was getting myself into. ‘This has great clubs with top facilities — everyone has one goal. The Championship is among the best five leagues in Europe.’ Brentford shelled out £1.5 million to sign Jota from La Liga club Celta Vigo last summer .

A rugby player sidelined for his abnormally large feet can play again - thanks to a specially delivered pair of size 21 orange boots from Welsh rugby captain Sam Warburton. Carl Griffiths, 22, was forced to sit on the bench for his club side after wearing out his last pair and he could not find replacement footwear. But now, the 6ft 8in forward can return to the fold after being fitted with a pair of custom-made, orange Adidas boots. Carl Griffiths proudly holds up his size 21 Adidas boots, presented to him by Wales captain Sam Warburton . The 6ft 8in forward had been unable to play for almost half a year, but is now able to play again . Mr Griffiths gleefully laces up his new orange boots at the home of his local club, Trimsaran RFC . Mr Griffiths, who lives in Carmarthenshire, West Wales, had been playing in size 18 boots for the past three years with his toes curled up in the ends. But after keeping them together with black sticky tape, they eventually fell apart. With his height, his club Trimsaran RFC miss him on the pitch, particularly in the line-outs. Desperate to play, Mr Griffiths contacted every major sports company he could think of asking if they had 21 size boots - 11 sizes bigger than the average man - but had no joy. But finally, after almost half a year stuck on the sidelines, they can welcome him back to the side thanks to the hand-delivered parcel from Warburton, who holds the record for the most Wales caps as captain. Mr Griffiths was cheering his team on from the touchline when the Welsh no 7 arrived with the parcel. He then laced them up before running out for his first game in months. He said: 'It is amazing to be able to play the game I love again - and be able to wiggle my toes in my boots! 'I can't thank Sam and the guys at Adidas enough for making these boots especially for me. 'I had no idea they were planning this and I had almost given up hope of ever finding boots that would fit me again.' Mr Griffiths towers over Warburton, the Welsh rugby captain, in his new Adidas orange size 21 boots . The 6ft 8in forward was delighted to meet Warburton, who presented him with the boots at Trimsaran RFC . Warburton said: 'As soon as the team at Adidas told me about this story I bit their hand off to be involved. 'I’ve had my fair share of injuries and breaks from the game over the years and I know it’s one of the worst feelings you can have. 'It’s great to have been involved in getting Carl back on the rugby field and you can tell it means a lot to him and his team mates. 'I’m sure they’ll be reminding him that he has some big boots to fill now though.' He had been playing in size 18 boots with his toes curled up, but eventually his feet came through the boots . The 22-year-old has size 21 feet - 11 sizes bigger than the average man, but can now play rugby again . It is believed Mr Griffiths' enormous feet are the result of drugs he was given to combat childhood leukaemia. He was eight years old when doctors discovered he was suffering from the disease, and after a course of chemotherapy he was treated with steroids to help him regain his strength. His feet sprouted within a year of stopping steroid treatment at 13 after he was given the all-clear, which is unusual because steroids usually restrict growth.

Severely disabled Jade Norton, aged 10, from Blackpool in Lancashire, was given the £2,600 BaKare Klearside bed to stop her rolling out at night . The NHS is facing a criminal trial over the death of a severely disabled ten-year-old girl who fell out of a faulty bed and was suffocated by a plastic sheet. Jade Norton, aged 10, from Blackpool in Lancashire, was given the £2,600 BaKare Klearside bed to stop her rolling out at night if she suffered a seizure. She suffered from Rett Syndrome, a rare disorder which impacts on breathing and movement. Just days before her 11th birthday in June 2011 she suffered a fit during the night and fell from the bed because the barrier to stop her falling out was broken and had not been fixed. Her parents claim they put in four requests in with the NHS and their care providers over a six week period asking for the bed to be fixed, but were ignored. They also say the bed was not serviced in four years. Three years after the tragedy health bosses have finally apologised and paid undisclosed compensation as part of a civil case. But yesterday criminal proceedings were launched by the Health and Safety Authority against NHS Litigation Limited and Jade's carers, Interserve Healthcare. Jade's mother Amanda, 42, a support worker said: 'At the end of the day an innocent girl has died. 'She would still be here if it was not for the faults. 'I hope that we get the truth. I know nothing will bring her back but people need to be made more aware of what has happened so it never happens again. Jade pictured with her mother Amanda.

The disease usually strikes youngsters when they have learned to walk or talk. Over time the disease drags a girl's progression backwards so they lose their new skills and are left unable to communicate. Most girls with Rett syndrome reach adulthood but lose their motor skills. The syndrome is most often caused by a spontaneous genetic mutation and can occur in any family at any time. It affects around 1 in 12,000 live female births. There is no current treatment for the condition but there are hopes of finding a cure. The condition also affected Coleen Rooney's little sister who died in January 2013. Sufferers can live to their 40s and some have been known to live to their 70s. People do not die of Rett Syndrome but of complications that can appear with it such as epilepsy or pneumonia . See reverserett.org.uk . Mrs Norton added: 'Lee screamed. I started CPR to try to resuscitate her while Lee rang for an ambulance. 'I would hate to go through it again.'

(CNN)One of the two University of Oklahoma students expelled for their role in leading a racist chant has issued an apology, The Dallas Morning News reported. "I am deeply sorry for what I did Saturday night. It was wrong and reckless. I made a horrible mistake by joining into the singing and encouraging others to do the same," Parker Rice said in a statement printed by the newspaper. Earlier Tuesday, Rice and another student were expelled over their alleged "leadership role" in a racist chant by Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity members, a decision that President David Boren says speaks to his school's "zero tolerance" policy for such "threatening racist behavior." The decision comes two days after a video of frat members singing a racist song surfaced and hours after Boren told CNN he would suspend or expel the group's ringleaders if at all possible. "At this point, all I can do is be thoughtful and prayerful about my next steps, but I am also concerned about the fraternity friends still on campus. Apparently, they are feeling unsafe and some have been harassed by others. Hopefully, the university will protect them," Rice reportedly said in his apology. Already, the Greek letters sigma, alpha and epsilon have been removed from the frat house's facade, the house will be closed as of midnight Tuesday and the university will board up the windows, following up on separate decisions by the university and the SAE national headquarters to shutter the Oklahoma chapter, Boren said. Fraternity's house mom sings n-word . Rice has not responded to multiple requests from CNN for comment. "For me, this is a devastating lesson and I am seeking guidance on how I can learn from this and make sure it never happens again. My goal for the long-term is to be a man who has the heart and the courage to reject racism wherever I see or experience it in the future," his apology read. It was only a nine-second clip, but the backlash has been disastrous. Party-bound students are seen on a bus clapping, pumping their fists and laughing as they chant, "There will never be a ni**** SAE. You can hang him from a tree, but he can never sign with me. There will never be a ni**** SAE." After the campus organization, Unheard, and the school newspaper received the clip via anonymous messages and publicized it, the university and the fraternity's national chapter acted swiftly to shutter the SAE house in Norman. Boren promised the university's affiliation with the fraternity was done. "I was not only shocked and disappointed but disgusted by the outright display of racism displayed in the video," said Brad Cohen, the fraternity's national president. "SAE is a diverse organization, and we have zero tolerance for racism or any bad behavior." Still, it could get worse. Oklahoma may not be the only source of embarrassment for the fraternity. "Several other incidents with chapters or members have been brought to the attention of the headquarters staff and leaders, and each of those instances will be investigated for further action," SAE said. It's likely that if the university hadn't acted, the Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division could have stepped in, said Barbara Arnwine, president and executive director of the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law. Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 "prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, and national origin in programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance," according to the Justice Department. In this case, Arnwine said, the university likely found that fraternity members appear not only to have discriminated in their membership -- and backed that discrimination with the threat of lynching -- but they've also created a hostile environment. The university, she said, "would've been compelled to do something to sanction and prevent this fraternity from engaging in racial discrimination." Arnwine said she wasn't personally familiar with the school's code of conduct, but she'd be surprised if the fraternity members' actions weren't in violation of university rules as well. All of these reasons are grounds to sanction the fraternity and expel specific members who were involved in the singing, she said. "A very important part of the lexicon of civil rights law is that you cannot create a hostile environment where you make it so people of different races or religions or women feel they can't function at your institution without being subjected to unlawful discrimination," she said. It's unclear whether more students will be punished for the video, though Boren has promised the SAEs won't return during his tenure if he can help it. "The house will be closed, and as far as I'm concerned, they won't be back," he said at a Monday news conference. He later told CNN, "There seems to be a culture in some of these fraternities, and it just has to be snuffed out." The decision to shutter the fraternity was an easy one for Boren, he said. "If we're ever going to snuff this out in the whole country, let alone on college campuses, we're going to have to have zero tolerance, and we have to act right away," said Boren, a former Oklahoma governor and U.S. senator. "This is not a place that wants racists or bigots on our campus or will tolerate it, so I think you have to send a very strong signal." Hundreds of students have protested the fraternity's actions. Some of them arrived Monday morning on the campus' North Oval with tape over their mouths, while the Oklahoma football team and Coach Bob Stoops marched arm in arm across campus instead of practicing. The video infuriated Oklahoma linebacker Eric Striker, who posted a profanity-laced video to social media. "I was angry and I was outraged," Striker said. "I apologize for the profanity, but I'm not apologizing about how I felt, because that's how I felt in my heart." The fallout from the video also cost the football team a top recruit as offensive lineman Jean Delance said Monday he was de-committing from the Sooners and considering other teams. Just as they protested loudly Monday, students on Tuesday were emphatic in expressing their relief and satisfaction that those allegedly responsible for leading the racist chant got their due. Ross Johnson, a senior studying drama and broadcast media, called the video embarrassing and unacceptable as he worried that it may be seen as a reflection on him in the future. "It sucks that I'm graduating in May. I feel I am probably going to have to explain this when I move," he said. "For people who don't know the University of Oklahoma, aren't part of the student body, it's a black eye that doesn't really deserve to be there. It's a small group of people who were acting foolishly." Another student, junior Jake Hewitt, applauded the university and the fraternity's national president for their handling of the incident. "I think it's really good that the president is showing strong support for the students in the community here and saying, 'This is not OK. It's not going to be acceptable on our campus.' It's a good strong move, and I hope if they find out more, they do more," he said. Shortly after the expulsions were announced, senior Omar Humphrey, an African-American modern dance student, told CNN, "I think it's rightfully so that they were (kicked out). ... That needed to happen. It wasn't fair; it wasn't right. I am, as most of the student body -- not just the African-American students -- we're all disheartened by the situation. It's just really hard to think that this is still going on today, and I'm still deeply saddened." He is still a "proud student," he said, and he understands that the fraternity members in question represent "just some microbial infestation that's on campus. It's on every campus, it's on every campus. It's unfortunate that we have to be seen in that light." Asked what he could say to the fraternity members if given the chance, Humphrey replied, "I pray for their humanity. I hope that they find maturity. ... I wish them well. " Unheard co-director Chelsea Davis said a racist mentality is not new to campus and is not confined to one fraternity. "Unfortunately, it took them getting caught on video camera for this to happen, but this is definitely not something that is brand-new. It's not something that's only seen within this one organization," she said. Sigma Alpha Epsilon is no stranger to scandal and sanctions . Davis said the only acceptable response is to expel -- not suspend, as that would send the wrong message -- all the students involved. "I was hurt that my fellow peers that I walk to class with every day, people that I see every day, could say such hateful things about me and my culture, about my friends, about my brothers and my sisters," she said. William Bruce James II, who was a member of the frat between 2001 and 2005, called the episode "devastating" -- not just because he's an Oklahoma alumnus but also because he's African-American. James told CNN that there was "never an inkling of this song or a whisper of anything like this" when he lived in the house. He said members of his pledge class "wouldn't let that happen," and if someone did dare to start such a chant they'd swiftly speak out and shut it down "whether I was there or not." Since the video surfaced, James said he's heard from many of his former fraternity brothers. Like him, they're offended and supportive of the decision to shutter the Norman chapter. "I don't know what happened to the culture of my home," he said. "That is not my home. That is not SAE. They are not my brothers." Opinion: Are frats 'a form of American apartheid'?

<s>[INST] (CNN)One of the two University of Oklahoma students expelled for their role in leading a racist chant has issued an apology, The Dallas Morning News reported.

A man who tipped the scales at 35 stone due to years of binge drinking and eating junk food says he should be given gastric bypass surgery on the NHS in order to lose weight. Mark, 45, from Glasgow suffers from lymphangitis - a painful swelling of his legs - and is at risk of diabetes because of his size. He struggles with his mobility and has had to have hand rails and extra banisters fitted around his home to help him use the stairs. He also needs straps to help him lift his limbs into bed and can't put his own shoes on because of his girth. Scroll down for video . Scottish Mark who tips the scales at 35 stone due to years of binge drinking and eating junk food says he should be given gastric bypass surgery on the NHS in order to lose weight . 'I feel restricted in what I can do, caged,' the father admitted. He said gastric bypass surgery, which costs £9,000 on the NHS, is his only hope. 'I have always been a big guy. From the age of 13 a lot of drink and food. I reckon lager had a lot to do with the weight initially,' he explained. 'I don't want people to feel sorry for me. I have lost weight and it's the easiest thing in the world to put it back on. All I am looking for is help to keep it off by restricting what I can eat.' He says his problem with food is an addiction and he should be supported in the same way people are when they try to give up addictions to cigarettes and alcohol. 'Especially in Scotland we live in a fried culture, everything is fried and greasy or fat, usually that stuff tastes the best. There's not enough healthy options out there. 'It's an addiction, all I want is that wee bit of help.' Mark shares his story on Channel 4 show NHS: £2bn A Week And Counting which aims to show viewers the dilemmas the health service faces when trying to decide who to treat. Mark shares his story on Channel 4 show NHS: £2bn A Week And Counting which aims to show viewers the dilemmas the health service faces when trying to decide who to treat . Mark, who has been married to wife Lorraine for 30 years, has twice been denied weight loss surgery so has applied to the NHS in Scotland for a third time. He can't afford to pay for the op privately as he was made redundant from his job at a delivery company two years ago and is now on benefits. He said: 'It all boils down to money. Your life means nothing if it costs too much.' He admitted he knows people watching will think he doesn't deserve to have the operation on the NHS. But in the long run, it could save NHS funds as they wouldn't have to treat him for diabetes or other health conditions he may develop as a result of his obesity in the future. Professor David Kerrigan, a bariatric surgeon who treats both NHS and private patients, agrees that weight loss surgery can be cost effective for the NHS. He said: 'I know a lot of people won't have any sympathy for the sort of patients I treat but these people have real problems. They are not a little bit chubby wanting to look better, they are ill because of the obesity they developed. 'I don't care how or why they got it, I know they are at the bottom of a deep hole they can't get out of and the surgery offers them an escape. 'This surgery is transformative for people's lives, there are very few operations we do that can achieve that.' Marks added: 'If it stops me getting diabetes then it benefits me and them, those costs can then go somewhere else.' The show also interviews other people desperate to be treated on the NHS to show viewers how difficult it can be to decide whose need is greater. There are children born with cerebral palsy who need Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy (SDR) - a procedure that can significantly reduce muscle stiffness helping them to walk more easily and reducing painful muscle spasms. Mark, who has been married to wife Lorraine for 30 years, has twice been denied weight loss surgery so has applied to the NHS in Scotland for a third time .

Three cycles of IVF on the NHS costs £10,000 and Becky has been denied the treatment because her partner, Mark, 38, a scaffolder, already has a child from a previous relationship. Becky is infertile thanks to getting an STI when she was a teenager and she said she's heartbroken that IVF is her only chance to have a baby. She said: 'When I was younger I couldn't wait to grow up and have a family. I have always loved kids so when you have been told you face a life with no children it's pretty tough, you have to live with that every day, it's not a nice feeling. 'It guts you to think you were stupid enough to trust someone and they gave you an STI. And then to find out later in life that's the reason you can't have children, it guts me. 'I sometimes feel disgusted with myself. People make mistakes, I was young and stupid, it was not my fault. I didn't know he was sleeping with Tom, Dick and Harry behind my back.

A computer programmer who killed his girlfriend and then almost got away with it after staging a cover-up has been jailed for five years. Edward Metcalfe claimed that the death of Tracey Topliss, 47, had been a tragic accident after she fell down the stairs at their home in Hall Green, Birmingham. A post-mortem also ruled that her death had been an accident, but after a friend of the victim told police of domestic violence within the relationship, police re-investigated the case and charged Metcalfe with murder. Edward Metcalfe, right, who has been jailed for five years following the death of his partner Tracey Topliss, left. Her death had initially been ruled as an accident . Today following a trial at Birmingham Crown Court, he was acquitted of murder but convicted of the manslaughter of his partner of 13 years and jailed. The court heard how Miss Topliss, a National Grid worker, was killed on November 15 in 2013 at the couple's home. Both she and Metcalfe, 36, had been drinking after she received the news that her mother had been diagnosed with cancer. Hugh O'Brien Quinn, prosecuting, said that following an initial post-mortem, it had been concluded that Miss Topliss's death had been accidental. The judge told Metcalfe, pictured, that his behaviour had been 'utterly selfish' and that he showed a 'complete lack of remorse' However, he added: 'That was until Mrs Sharon Wade contacted the police and told them of her concerns. 'She had been a good friend of Tracey Topliss. It was to her that Miss Topliss had complained about domestic violence from her partner.' It was then that a second post-mortem was conducted and the court heard how the pathologist discovered an injury to the victim's cheek, consistent with a heavy punch. Judge Paul Farrer QC said that Miss Topliss was a 'hard-working, successful and well-respected by her professional colleagues.' Addressing Metcalfe, he added: 'There must have been some disagreement between you which caused you to lose your temper. 'You delivered a significant punch to the right side of her face. The blow caused her to fall backwards and strike her head against a table. 'You thought of nobody but yourself. Rather than trying to help her or call the emergency services, you left her lying on the floor of the hallway. 'You waited approximately for two-and-a-half hours before dialling 999. 'Your behaviour was utterly selfish and betrayed a complete lack of remorse. You showed a callous disregard for your victim.' However, David Crigman QC, defending said: 'What he has been found guilty of is one punch with disastrous consequences. 'It must have happened within seconds. There was no evidence of a protracted argument. But for her falling backwards and hitting her head, the deceased would not have suffered a serious injury.' Metcalfe was acquitted of murder but convicted of manslaughter and jailed for five years at Birmingham Crown Court . Metcalfe was then jailed for five years and after the hearing, Detective Inspector Harry Harrison, of West Midlands Police, said: 'Edward Metcalfe initially deceived the authorities into believing that Miss Topliss died as a result of a tragic accident. 'He nearly got away with it. His crime was discovered as a result of community vigilance and courage. 'This goes to show that the police need the active cooperation from the community to eradicate the evil that is domestic abuse and bring offenders to justice.'

Tracey Topliss died after falling down the stairs at her home in Birmingham . Partner Edward Metcalfe claimed that the fall had been a tragic accident . An initial post-mortem also ruled that Miss Topliss's death was accidental . But a friend told police the pair had been in an abusive relationship . Another post-mortem showed Miss Topliss had been hit on the face . Metcalfe was arrested and has been jailed for five years after being found guilty of manslaughter .

Edward Metcalfe, right, who has been jailed for five years following the death of his partner Tracey Topliss, left. Her death had initially been ruled as an accident . Today following a trial at Birmingham Crown Court, he was acquitted of murder but convicted of the manslaughter of his partner of 13 years and jailed. The court heard how Miss Topliss, a National Grid worker, was killed on November 15 in 2013 at the couple's home. Both she and Metcalfe, 36, had been drinking after she received the news that her mother had been diagnosed with cancer. Hugh O'Brien Quinn, prosecuting, said that following an initial post-mortem, it had been concluded that Miss Topliss's death had been accidental. The judge told Metcalfe, pictured, that his behaviour had been 'utterly selfish' and that he showed a 'complete lack of remorse' However, he added: 'That was until Mrs Sharon Wade contacted the police and told them of her concerns. 'She had been a good friend of Tracey Topliss. It was to her that Miss Topliss had complained about domestic violence from her partner.' It was then that a second post-mortem was conducted and the court heard how the pathologist discovered an injury to the victim's cheek, consistent with a heavy punch. Judge Paul Farrer QC said that Miss Topliss was a 'hard-working, successful and well-respected by her professional colleagues.' Addressing Metcalfe, he added: 'There must have been some disagreement between you which caused you to lose your temper. 'You delivered a significant punch to the right side of her face. The blow caused her to fall backwards and strike her head against a table. 'You thought of nobody but yourself. Rather than trying to help her or call the emergency services, you left her lying on the floor of the hallway. 'You waited approximately for two-and-a-half hours before dialling 999. 'Your behaviour was utterly selfish and betrayed a complete lack of remorse. You showed a callous disregard for your victim.' However, David Crigman QC, defending said: 'What he has been found guilty of is one punch with disastrous consequences. 'It must have happened within seconds. There was no evidence of a protracted argument. But for her falling backwards and hitting her head, the deceased would not have suffered a serious injury.' Metcalfe was acquitted of murder but convicted of manslaughter and jailed for five years at Birmingham Crown Court . Metcalfe was then jailed for five years and after the hearing, Detective Inspector Harry Harrison, of West Midlands Police, said: 'Edward Metcalfe initially deceived the authorities into believing that Miss Topliss died as a result of a tragic accident. 'He nearly got away with it. His crime was discovered as a result of community vigilance and courage. 'This goes to show that the police need the active cooperation from the community to eradicate the evil that is domestic abuse and bring offenders to justice.'

One in five gay teenagers in schools across Britain are being subjected to bullying by teachers or other adults, new research has shown. Another third of gay male pupils said they left school without being taught anything about HIV or safe sex, despite a spike in infections nationwide. A survey by the National Aids Trust (NAT), which quizzed more than 1,000 gay or bisexual men aged 14 to 19, also found that more than half had experienced some form of discrimination. More than half of gay teenagers said they had been bullied at school. While 99 per cent said they had been targeted by a classmate, 39 per cent said their tormentor was a teacher or adult (file image) Of those 99 per cent said they had been targeted by another pupil, while 75 per cent said they received online abuse, reports The Independent. However, another 39 per cent said the bullying had been at the hands of a teacher or another adult at their school. Deborah Gold, the chief executive of NAT, said: 'It's an incredibly high number. 'The idea that teachers or other adults at school are sometimes responsible for bullying and discrimination is utterly unacceptable.' The survey also showed a worrying lack of education among young men about the spread of HIV and safe sex, despite them being in the most at-risk group in the UK. Two thirds of those surveyed said they had not been given information about testing for the killer virus, while a third were given no information about the spread of HIV. Another three quarters were also unaware of the drug PEP, which can help prevent infection if it is given to a patient within three days of them being exposed to HIV. A third of teenage boys said they had been given no information on HIV or safe sex, while two thirds said they didn't know how to test for it, despite being in the most at-risk group (pictured, the HIV virus) Three quarters of pupils also said they had been given no information on same sex relationships during sex educations lessons. Ms Gold added: 'The number of young men who have sex with men who are contracting HIV is increasing. I think there's an absolute link between the lack of this education at a time when people need it and the consequences of that.' While education on HIV is required as part of the science curriculum, it is only recommended as part of social and health education classes, with campaigners calling its application 'patchy'. The most recent figures from Public Health England show that HIV infection rates among men who have sex with men are at an all-time high, and are continuing to rise. In 2012 there were 3,250 new diagnoses of HIV among this group, pushing the total to more than 40,000, of which around 7,300 were unaware they had the virus.

Survey found more than half of gay teens bullied for sexuality at school . 99 per cent abused by classmate, but 39 per cent targeted by an adult . A third also left school with no education on HIV or having safe sex .

A man accused of plotting to attack the U.S. Capitol called a television station from jail and said if he hadn't been arrested he would have gone to Washington and shot President Barack Obama in the head. WXIX-TV in Cincinnati said Christopher Lee Cornell, 20, called the station from the Kentucky jail where he's being held, confessed to being a supporter of the Islamic State group and said he planned to kill government officials in retaliation for U.S. strikes on the militant organization. The station aired part of the interview on Friday night, hours after Cornell's attorney argued unsuccessfully in court that it could violate the defendant's right to a fair trial. Cornell said in the interview that both he and ISIS members worked together on the terror plot, which involved planting pipe bombs and going on a public shooting rampage. Reporter Tricia Macke asked Cornell in the interview 'Was it their idea for you to plant pipe bombs at the Capitol and have people running outside to shoot them?' 'It was mix of both of our ideas,' Cornell answered. Scroll down for video . Christopher Lee Cornell allegedly plotted to attack the U.S. Capitol in Washington and kill government officials inside it and spoke of his desire to support the Islamic State militant group . Cornell, asked by Macke what he would have done had he not been arrested in January, said he would have taken one of his guns, 'I would have put it to Obama's head, I would have pulled the trigger, then I would unleash more bullets on the Senate and House of Representative members, and I would have attacked the Israeli embassy and various other buildings.' Cornell, who repeatedly identified himself as Muslim, said he wanted to carry out the attack because of 'the continued American aggression against our people and the fact that America, specifically President Obama, wants to wage war against Islamic State.' He said: 'They might say I'm a terrorist, but you know we see American troops as terrorists as well, coming to our land, stealing our resources and killing our people, raping our women.' Cornell, also known as Raheel Mahrus Ubaydah, grew up in the Cincinnati suburbs and still lived with his parents. He said support of the Islamic State group is widespread. 'We're here in Ohio. We're in every state,' he said. 'We're more organized than you think.' WXIX-TV in Cincinnati said Christopher Lee Cornell, 20, called the station from the Kentucky jail where he's being held, confessed to being a supporter of the Islamic State group and said he planned to kill government officials in retaliation for U.S. strikes on the militant organization . He said that if he hadn't been caught, he would have attacked, President Barack Obama, the Senate, the House of Representatives and many other places in the nation's capital . Cornell, who repeatedly identified himself as Muslim, said he wanted to carry out the attack because of 'the continued American aggression against our people and the fact that America, specifically President Obama, wants to wage war against Islamic State' At times what seemed like a nervous chuckle punctuated his responses. He said he would do whatever the Islamic State group asked of him, including beheading Americans, and predicted 'there will be many, many attacks'. A federal indictment charges Cornell with two counts that carry possible sentences of up to 20 years each upon conviction: attempted murder of government employees and officials and solicitation to commit a crime of violence. He also faces a firearms-related charge. He has pleaded not guilty and awaits trial in Cincinnati. Cornell was arrested outside a gun shop near his home on January 14 after the FBI said he bought two M-15 assault weapons and 600 rounds of ammunition. The FBI said in court documents that Cornell planned to 'wage jihad' by attacking the Capitol with pipe bombs and shooting government officials and employees. Cornell was coerced and misled by 'a snitch' trying to better his own legal situation, his father said. Cornell warned the news station that there were Islamic State group supporters in almost all of the United States . Cornell was arrested outside a gun shop near his home on January 14 after the FBI said he bought two M-15 assault weapons and 600 rounds of ammunition . He described his son as a 'mommy's boy' who spent hours playing video games in his bedroom. He also said his son was 'at peace' after becoming a practicing Muslim. 'He was dragged into this,' Cornell said before the hearing. 'He was coerced.' His son had long expressed distrust of government and the news media, and local police said he disrupted a 9/11 memorial ceremony in 2013. The FBI said he had for months sent social media messages and posted video espousing support for Islamic State militants and for violent attacks by others. Cornell told an informant they should 'wage jihad,' authorities said in court papers. Similar stings in recent years have led to accusations of entrapment. But the FBI has argued such stings are vital for averting deadly terror attacks, and juries have returned tough sentences. Cornell (pictured left years ago) posted messages on Twitter sympathizing with Islamic terrorists led to an undercover FBI operation. His father John Cornell (right) claims his son was coerced into the plot .

Cornell, asked by Macke what he would have done had he not been arrested in January, said he would have taken one of his guns, 'I would have put it to Obama's head, I would have pulled the trigger, then I would unleash more bullets on the Senate and House of Representative members, and I would have attacked the Israeli embassy and various other buildings.' Cornell, who repeatedly identified himself as Muslim, said he wanted to carry out the attack because of 'the continued American aggression against our people and the fact that America, specifically President Obama, wants to wage war against Islamic State.' He said: 'They might say I'm a terrorist, but you know we see American troops as terrorists as well, coming to our land, stealing our resources and killing our people, raping our women.' Cornell, also known as Raheel Mahrus Ubaydah, grew up in the Cincinnati suburbs and still lived with his parents. He said support of the Islamic State group is widespread. 'We're here in Ohio. We're in every state,' he said. 'We're more organized than you think.' WXIX-TV in Cincinnati said Christopher Lee Cornell, 20, called the station from the Kentucky jail where he's being held, confessed to being a supporter of the Islamic State group and said he planned to kill government officials in retaliation for U.S. strikes on the militant organization . He said that if he hadn't been caught, he would have attacked, President Barack Obama, the Senate, the House of Representatives and many other places in the nation's capital . Cornell, who repeatedly identified himself as Muslim, said he wanted to carry out the attack because of 'the continued American aggression against our people and the fact that America, specifically President Obama, wants to wage war against Islamic State' At times what seemed like a nervous chuckle punctuated his responses. He said he would do whatever the Islamic State group asked of him, including beheading Americans, and predicted 'there will be many, many attacks'. A federal indictment charges Cornell with two counts that carry possible sentences of up to 20 years each upon conviction: attempted murder of government employees and officials and solicitation to commit a crime of violence. He also faces a firearms-related charge. He has pleaded not guilty and awaits trial in Cincinnati. Cornell was arrested outside a gun shop near his home on January 14 after the FBI said he bought two M-15 assault weapons and 600 rounds of ammunition. The FBI said in court documents that Cornell planned to 'wage jihad' by attacking the Capitol with pipe bombs and shooting government officials and employees. Cornell was coerced and misled by 'a snitch' trying to better his own legal situation, his father said. Cornell warned the news station that there were Islamic State group supporters in almost all of the United States . Cornell was arrested outside a gun shop near his home on January 14 after the FBI said he bought two M-15 assault weapons and 600 rounds of ammunition . He described his son as a 'mommy's boy' who spent hours playing video games in his bedroom. He also said his son was 'at peace' after becoming a practicing Muslim. 'He was dragged into this,' Cornell said before the hearing. 'He was coerced.' His son had long expressed distrust of government and the news media, and local police said he disrupted a 9/11 memorial ceremony in 2013. The FBI said he had for months sent social media messages and posted video espousing support for Islamic State militants and for violent attacks by others. Cornell told an informant they should 'wage jihad,' authorities said in court papers. Similar stings in recent years have led to accusations of entrapment. But the FBI has argued such stings are vital for averting deadly terror attacks, and juries have returned tough sentences. Cornell (pictured left years ago) posted messages on Twitter sympathizing with Islamic terrorists led to an undercover FBI operation.

The newly released The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel is every bit as starry as the first film, with Judi Dench, Bill Nighy, Maggie Smith and Richard Gere at centre stage. But India plays its supporting role with equal charm and grace. Painted elephants, marble palaces, magnificent forts, wandering cows, pale pink turbans and flickering candles tell of the noise, smells and rich colours of this flamboyant country. A city of colours and sounds: Jaipur is the spectacular setting for The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel . Filmed in Rajasthan, the film is based in its capital, Jaipur. But ask any resident of the city about the film and you will be met with a blank stare. Our wonderful guide, Rajendra, was aware of it only because a client had pointed out 'the apparently very famous Judi Dench' in the Rambagh Palace Hotel. Bollywood, not Hollywood, still rules the screens here. While it might be too late to see Richard Gere in the crowded alleyways of the bazaars, you will spot plenty of other desirable items. Jaipur is a shopper's paradise and Indians flock here for silks and the region's hand-made, block-printed cottons. This is also considered the place to come for jewels. The stones are not mined here, but cut, polished and set better than anywhere else. Visit the iconic jeweller of Jaipur, the Gem Palace, one-time court jewellers to the Mughal emperors and run by the Kasliwal family since 1852. Classic glamour: Judi Dench (left) stars in a movie which shows off Jaipur (right) at its most evocative . Here are ruby chandelier earrings, enamel rings with floral mughal designs and moonstone necklaces. You can watch them being worked on in their basement workshop, using skills that have been passed down the generations. For inexpensive sparkle, head to Bangle Lane (Maniharon ka Rasta) in the old city, where you can choose from a multitude of colourful lac bangles for a handful of rupees. Made from resin produced by the female lac insect, they are embedded with mirror pieces, stones, beads or painted. For fashion, Hot Pink is the most sophisticated venue, with high-collared men's waistcoats and moccasins in all hues, as well as kaftans and shawls. The best block-printed fabrics, a craft that dates back to the 1700s, are at Riddhi Siddhi, where cloth is piled from floor to ceiling. Wander, too, through the spice market, past paan wallahs filling betel leaves and the flower market, where scented roses, fragrant jasmine and marigolds are made into garlands to offer to your favourite deities. Magical moments: "The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel is every bit as starry as the first film" The Pink City is so-called for its coloured wash, intended to replicate Indian sandstone, a more noble material than the lime and mortar of which the buildings are actually made. With its city gates and crenellated walls, it makes for a striking sight. There are iconic landmarks, such as the five-storey, 18th-century Palace of the Winds, with its latticed screen facade allowing street life to be viewed by the veiled ladies within. Before 1727, when Sawai Jai Singh II created Jaipur, the City of Victory, neighbouring Amber, was the capital. The magnificent Amber Fort, to which you can ride on an elephant, offers panoramic views over Maota Lake and the ornamental gardens that seem to float within. The 16th and 17th century interiors impress with their exquisitely carved silver doors, ceilings of alabaster and an Indian version of the Hall of Mirrors with mirrored fragments embedded in vaulted ceilings glinting between arches. Today, the Jaipur royal family live in the City Palace, where rooms are open to the public. Gone is their Rambagh Palace, which became India's first palace hotel in 1957 (do try its Suvarna Mahal restaurant). But their newly elegant Rajmahal Palace has recently been re-opened. Dating back to 1729, this was once the British residency and later home to the polo-playing Maharaja Sawai Man Singh II, who entertained the Queen, Lord Mountbatten, Prince Charles and Princess Diana, and Jacqueline Kennedy. A vision in pink: The Palace of Winds is one of Jaipur's - and Rajasthan's - most iconic structures . Their names adorn some of the 14 suites in the palace's new chapter as a hotel managed by Sujan Luxury. The decor, by acclaimed designer Adil Ahmad, offers vivid turquoises and shocking pinks, gilded mirrors and sweeping marble staircases - but, sadly, not Richard Gere.

The region of Molina de Aragon, in Spain, is as barren as it is beautiful.

An Indian man who made headlines around the world after he opened a plane’s emergency exit and jumped 15ft to the ground says he was trying to pull off a stunt like his Bollywood idol. The passenger, Akash Jain, told a Mumbai news agency that he was influenced by his adoration for Akshay Kumar, one of the most famous Indian actors of all time, and dismissed claims that he made the dangerous leap because he was impatient. The 30-year-old told Mid Day: ‘I wanted to perform a stunt like Akshay Kumar because I am his fan, and hence I jumped off the aircraft.’ Scroll down for video . Passenger Akash Jain said he jumped off the plane to perform a stunt like actor Akshay Kumar . Friday’s incident sparked a security scare at Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport and raised serious questions about how Mr Jain was able to elude police and airport security officers. Mr Jain opened the emergency exit moments after the Boeing 737, carrying 144 passengers and five crew, pulled up to a gate after arriving from Chandigarh. After leaping off the plane in front of stunned passengers on flight 9W469, he entered the arrivals terminal after asking a ground crew member for directions and left the airport without being apprehended. The passenger who leaped from the plane said he was imitating his idol, Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar (left) Having missed his connecting flight, Mr Jain travelled by bus and taxi towards his destination in Goa, but returned to Mumbai after he spoke to his mother by telephone and learned that his father was not feeling well, Mid Day reported. Mr Jain, who works as a medical representative, planned to travel home to Jalandhar, but was arrested by police in Mumbai on Saturday night after a CCTV image from the airport was circulated by local media and someone reported his whereabouts, the news website reported. The amateur stuntman is being held in custody for a week, but he may spend more time in custody if he is not granted bail. Akash Jain entered the arrivals terminal after he asked a ground crew member for directions to an exit . An airport police officer told Mid Day: ‘He told us that he had seen Akshay Kumar performing stunts in the movies and wanted to perform one himself. ‘He added that the fact that passengers are repeatedly told to open the emergency doors only in case of an emergency made him want to open it more.’ The incident sparked a furious response from airport bosses, who accused Jet Airways of failing to immediately alert the proper authorities. An airport spokesperson said: ‘If the incident took place after the aircraft landed, why didn’t the airline security staff inform the security agencies immediately? ‘Why did they need 35 minutes to do so?’ A Jet Airways spokesperson denied the claim, telling MailOnline Travel that security agencies were notified immediately. The airline spokesperson added: ‘A guest travelling on Jet Airways flight 9W469 from Chandigarh to Mumbai opened the emergency door and disembarked, alighting onto the aircraft’s wings after the aircraft had come to a standstill at the parking bay at Mumbai airport.’

The Islamic State cherry picks sections of the Koran and misinterprets the accounts of the Prophet Muhammad in order to wage jihad and sign up new recruits, experts say. It is estimated that 20,000 people have streamed into the territory in Iraq and Syria, where ISIS has proclaimed what it calls a 'caliphate', ruled by its often brutal version of Islamic law. The group purport to recreate the conquests and rule of the Prophet Muhammad and his successors and maintains its worst brutalities - such as beheading captives - only prove its purity in following what it contends is the prophet's example. An ISIS member parades through the streets of Raqqa in Syria waving an Islamic State flag and brandishing a gun. Experts have now said that ISIS misinterprets the Koran in order to wage jihad . But now Muslims clerics and other experts are speaking out, saying that the group hand picks what it wants from Islam's holy book, the Koran, and from accounts of Muhammad's actions and sayings, known as the Hadith. It then misinterprets many of these, while ignoring everything in the texts that contradicts those hand-picked selections. Writings by the group's clerics and its English-language online magazine, Dabiq, are full of citations from Koranic verses, the Hadith and centuries of interpreters, mostly from hardliners. But Joas Wagemakers, an assistant professor of Islamic Studies at Radboud University in the Netherlands, says these are taken far out of context by ISIS. He explained that Muslim scholars throughout history have used texts in a 'decontextualised way' to suit their purposes and says that ISIS represent the extreme. He added: 'It would be a mistake to conclude the Islamic State group's extremism is the true Islam that emerges from the Koran and Hadith. Muslim clerics say ISIS just hand picks certain parts of the Koran to boost their cause while ignoring other parts that contradict their selections . Meanwhile Khaled Abou El Fadl, an Islamic law scholar at the University of California, says despite its claims to the contrary, ISIS is a largely political group, borne out of the conflicts of Syria and Iraq. He said: 'The group is trying to make God a co-conspirator in a genocidal project.' Ahmed al-Dawoody, an assistant professor at the Institute for Islamic World Studies at Zayed University in Dubai, agreed. He added that the phenomenon of reading religious sources out of context has existed throughout the ages. He explained: 'We should not grant any legitimacy to those who violate Islam, then hijack it and speak on its behalf. 'This is not Islamic terror, this is terror committed by Muslims.' Muslim clerics also say that while misreading some texts, ISIS also ignore certain Koranic verses which promote mercy, preservation of life and protection of innocents, all of which are binding under Islamic Shariah law. It is estimated that 20,000 people have streamed into the territory in Iraq and Syria, where ISIS has proclaimed what it calls a 'caliphate' Many mainstream clerics compare the group to the Khawarij, an early sect that was so notorious for 'takfir,' or declaring other Muslims heretics for even simple sins, that it was rejected by the faith. Part of the problem in countering the group's ideology is that moderate clerics have struggled to come up with a cohesive, modern interpretation, especially of the Koranic verses connected to Muhammad's wars with his enemies. Militants often point to the Koran's ninth sura, or chapter, which includes calls for Muslims to 'fight polytheists wherever you find them' and to subdue Christians and Jews until they pay a tax. Moderate clerics counter that these verses are linked to specifics of the time and note other verses that say there is 'no force in religion.' And while moderate clerics disagree with the Islamic State group's interpretation point-by-point, at times they accept the same ideals. Sheikh Ahmed el-Tayeb, the grand imam of Egypt's Al-Azhar, one of Sunni Islam's most prestigious seats of learning, denounced the burning of the Jordanian pilot as a violation of Islam. But then he called for the perpetrators to be subjected to the same punishment that ISIS prescribes for those who 'wage war on Islam' - crucifixion, death or the amputation of hands and legs. There are citations in the Hadith of Muhammad of ordering beheadings, and verses in the Koran setting out rules for dealing with slaves. Most Muslims denounced the burning of a Jordanian pilot as a violation of Islam with some calling for the perpetrators to be subjected to the same punishment . Pivoting off these, ISIS contends that anyone who rejects beheadings or enslavement is not a real Muslim and has been corrupted by modern Western ideas. One ISIS cleric, Sheikh Hussein bin Mahmoud, wrote a vehement defence of beheadings after the killing of American journalist James Foley. He wrote: 'Those who pervert Islam are not those who cut off the heads of disbelievers and terrorise them but those who want (Islam) to be like Mandela or Gandhi, with no killing, no fighting, no blood or striking necks. 'Islam is the religion of battle, of cutting heads, of shedding blood.' To support beheadings, the group cites the Koran as calling on Muslims to 'strike the necks' of their enemies. But other clerics counter the verse means Muslim fighters should swiftly kill enemies in the heat of battle, and is not a call to execute captives.

<s>[INST] The Islamic State cherry picks sections of the Koran and misinterprets the accounts of the Prophet Muhammad in order to wage jihad and sign up new recruits, experts say. It is estimated that 20,000 people have streamed into the territory in Iraq and Syria, where ISIS has proclaimed what it calls a 'caliphate', ruled by its often brutal version of Islamic law. The group purport to recreate the conquests and rule of the Prophet Muhammad and his successors and maintains its worst brutalities - such as beheading captives - only prove its purity in following what it contends is the prophet's example. An ISIS member parades through the streets of Raqqa in Syria waving an Islamic State flag and brandishing a gun. Experts have now said that ISIS misinterprets the Koran in order to wage jihad . But now Muslims clerics and other experts are speaking out, saying that the group hand picks what it wants from Islam's holy book, the Koran, and from accounts of Muhammad's actions and sayings, known as the Hadith. It then misinterprets many of these, while ignoring everything in the texts that contradicts those hand-picked selections. Writings by the group's clerics and its English-language online magazine, Dabiq, are full of citations from Koranic verses, the Hadith and centuries of interpreters, mostly from hardliners. But Joas Wagemakers, an assistant professor of Islamic Studies at Radboud University in the Netherlands, says these are taken far out of context by ISIS. He explained that Muslim scholars throughout history have used texts in a 'decontextualised way' to suit their purposes and says that ISIS represent the extreme. He added: 'It would be a mistake to conclude the Islamic State group's extremism is the true Islam that emerges from the Koran and Hadith. Muslim clerics say ISIS just hand picks certain parts of the Koran to boost their cause while ignoring other parts that contradict their selections . Meanwhile Khaled Abou El Fadl, an Islamic law scholar at the University of California, says despite its claims to the contrary, ISIS is a largely political group, borne out of the conflicts of Syria and Iraq. He said: 'The group is trying to make God a co-conspirator in a genocidal project.' Ahmed al-Dawoody, an assistant professor at the Institute for Islamic World Studies at Zayed University in Dubai, agreed. He added that the phenomenon of reading religious sources out of context has existed throughout the ages. He explained: 'We should not grant any legitimacy to those who violate Islam, then hijack it and speak on its behalf. 'This is not Islamic terror, this is terror committed by Muslims.' Muslim clerics also say that while misreading some texts, ISIS also ignore certain Koranic verses which promote mercy, preservation of life and protection of innocents, all of which are binding under Islamic Shariah law. It is estimated that 20,000 people have streamed into the territory in Iraq and Syria, where ISIS has proclaimed what it calls a 'caliphate' Many mainstream clerics compare the group to the Khawarij, an early sect that was so notorious for 'takfir,' or declaring other Muslims heretics for even simple sins, that it was rejected by the faith. Part of the problem in countering the group's ideology is that moderate clerics have struggled to come up with a cohesive, modern interpretation, especially of the Koranic verses connected to Muhammad's wars with his enemies. Militants often point to the Koran's ninth sura, or chapter, which includes calls for Muslims to 'fight polytheists wherever you find them' and to subdue Christians and Jews until they pay a tax. Moderate clerics counter that these verses are linked to specifics of the time and note other verses that say there is 'no force in religion.' And while moderate clerics disagree with the Islamic State group's interpretation point-by-point, at times they accept the same ideals. Sheikh Ahmed el-Tayeb, the grand imam of Egypt's Al-Azhar, one of Sunni Islam's most prestigious seats of learning, denounced the burning of the Jordanian pilot as a violation of Islam. But then he called for the perpetrators to be subjected to the same punishment that ISIS prescribes for those who 'wage war on Islam' - crucifixion, death or the amputation of hands and legs. There are citations in the Hadith of Muhammad of ordering beheadings, and verses in the Koran setting out rules for dealing with slaves. Most Muslims denounced the burning of a Jordanian pilot as a violation of Islam with some calling for the perpetrators to be subjected to the same punishment . Pivoting off these, ISIS contends that anyone who rejects beheadings or enslavement is not a real Muslim and has been corrupted by modern Western ideas. One ISIS cleric, Sheikh Hussein bin Mahmoud, wrote a vehement defence of beheadings after the killing of American journalist James Foley. He wrote: 'Those who pervert Islam are not those who cut off the heads of disbelievers and terrorise them but those who want (Islam) to be like Mandela or Gandhi, with no killing, no fighting, no blood or striking necks. 'Islam is the religion of battle, of cutting heads, of shedding blood.' To support beheadings, the group cites the Koran as calling on Muslims to 'strike the necks' of their enemies. But other clerics counter the verse means Muslim fighters should swiftly kill enemies in the heat of battle, and is not a call to execute captives.

It was planned as a publicity stunt to send a strong message that China is cracking down on illegal trade and counterfeiting. But when villagers realised officials in Xuzhou, east China's Jiangsu province, had stockpiled a 35-ton heap of fake goods to burn, they decided to help themselves before dozens of counterfeit designer shoes and clothes went up in flames. Locals fought their way to the vast pile to lay their hands on everything from fake cosmetics and computer parts to soya milk, using iron hooks and bamboo baskets to reach items, according to the People's Daily Online. Villagers descended on a vast pile of counterfeit goods collected in China that was planned to be incinerated, grabbing designer shoes and clothes as well as soya milk and other food from the 35-ton 'mountain' Word soon spread, drawing crowds of people who described the pile as a 'mountain of treasure.' Locals were seen pilfering anything they could from the vast pile, and stuffing goods and dozens of boxes into cars, trucks and even wheelbarrows. Among the items grabbed were food, healthcare products, cosmetics and computer parts. The 35.7 tonnes of counterfeit goods had been stockpiled by authorities in the city of Xuzhou where they were being kept before being destroyed. But when locals heard that the the huge pile worth 285,000 Chinese Juan (£30,500) was to be burned, they went along to have a look. When they saw that many of the items had not been incinerated yet, they started helping themselves. As word spread that many items had not yet gone up in flames, locals descended on the area . Lok Shen, 36, said: 'It was like a mountain of treasure just sitting there. 'There weren't any guards around and it seemed a waste to burn it all, so we took what we wanted.' Word spread and the place was soon swarming with looters grabbing boxes of anything they came across and stuffing them into the backs of cars, trucks and even into wheelbarrows. The public burning was just one of many that have taken place across the country as part of a crackdown on counterfeit goods, with the sign of bulldozers crashing bottles of spirits and counterfeit fireworks being set alight. Dozens of boxes were piled into the back of vans as villagers made off with their spoils, saved from the fire . The 35 ton pile was destined for the incinerator as part of China's crackdown on illegal trade and counterfeiting . Opportunists seized anything they could lay their hands on - including fake food stuffs and soya milk . This publicity stunt was planned to be slightly different, with goods being incinerated to generate energy. It was estimated that for every ton burned 550kwh of electricity would be generated. Officials in Jiangsu attempted to stop any further looting and asked people to return goods they had taken. Many people were unaware of the risks of pilfering fake items, particularly food. A local government spokesman said: 'We are looking at ways of making sure it doesn't happen again.' Boxes containing fake shoes, clothes and other items were grabbed by villagers and loaded onto vans . Locals used anything they could lay their hands on, including sticks of bamboo, to grab fake items . But local man Lok explained: 'If no one else wants them then I don't see why we shouldn't help ourselves. 'They may be fake but they are still good, and this way the counterfeiters aren' t getting any money and we are disposing of the items in a much more environmentally friendly way.' In 2013 Chinese officials set fire to a pile of fake wine, cigarettes, handbags and cosmetics in Guiyang, southwest China's Guizhou Province.

An Illinois Army National Guard soldier vowed to bring 'the flames of war' to America if he was unable to join ISIS in Syria, while his cousin bragged about gunning down 150 people at a military base disguised in his uniform, federal prosecutors said Thursday. Hasan R. Edmonds, the 22-year-old guardsman, was arrested Wednesday evening at Chicago Midway International Airport trying to board a plane on the first leg of a journey to Egypt. Jonas M. Edmonds, 29, was detained a few hours later his home in Aurora, the U.S. attorney's office in Chicago said. A federal complaint says the plan was for Jonas to carry out an attack at military installation in Illinois after Hasan left for the Middle East. The pair allegedly visited the base on Tuesday with an undercover FBI agent they met on Facebook to discus their plans. They believed he was an accomplice. Scroll down for video . Jonas M. Edmonds (left) and Hasan R. Edmonds (right) stand in front of an FBI agent as they appear at a hearing at federal court in Chicago. Both have been accused of hatching a plot to attack a U.S. military facility . The alleged plan the pair devised was for Hasan (right) to flee the country and join ISIL while Jonas (left) would have snuck into a base where he trained, disguised in his uniform . According to federal documents, Hasan described the rooms inside and talked about which ones should be hit. They are suspected of plotting an armed attack against a U.S. military facility in northern Illinois where Hasan had trained. The complaint did not name the facility. A spokesman for the Illinois National Guard, Lt. Col. Brad Leighton, said Hasan was member of Golf Company 634th Brigade Support Battalion, based in Joliet. In Facebook messages to an undercover FBI agent in January, Hasan said that if he was unable to make it to the Middle East, he would help bring 'the flames of war to the heart' of America and 'cause as much damage and mayhem as possible,' the complaint says. In other social media messages, Hasan said his knowledge of the U.S. military and American psychology would prove helpful in terrorizing Americans, prosecutors contend. Hasan (left) allegedly told an undercover FBI agent on Facebook if he couldn't get to the Middle East he would help bring 'the flames of war to the heart' of America. Jonas (right) told the officials it may be difficult for him to get travel documents . 'If we can break their spirits, we will win,' he said, according to the complaint. He allegedly spoke admiringly of the terrorist attack in Paris on the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo. 'Honestly, we would love to do something like the brother in Paris did,' he allegedly wrote. Both men face a count of conspiring to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization, the Islamic State. The conspiracy includes their alleged terrorist plots in the U.S. A conviction carries a maximum 15-year prison sentence. They made initial appearances in a courtroom in Chicago later Thursday. Jonas kept swiveling in his chair, stroking his beard and, at one point, yawned loudly. Hasan sat still. Hasan's sister, Manchinique Bates, told the Chicago Sun-Times, 'They aren't terrorists. ... Just because they choose to worship as Muslims does not make them terrorists.' Jonas allegedly communicated to an undercover agent that it may be difficult for him to get travel documents. This may have been because he has a previous conviction for conspiracy to commit armed robbery in Georgia. Jonas (pictured left in a mugshot from 2005) served five years in a Georgia prison for conspiracy to commit armed robbery. Hasan (right) was a member of the Illinois National Guard's Golf Company 634th Brigade Support Battalion, based in Joliet . Therefore, he said he would stage attacks in the U.S. using AK-47s to kill up to 150 people, prosecutors allege. If he couldn't secure guns, he said he would use anything he could get his hands on, the complaint says. 'I can unleash a lion,' he says. 'What I would need ... honestly nothing. I am prepared to go even if it's with a rock.' Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner said Thursday he was briefed about the investigation Wednesday. He provided no further details. Hasan wasn't on active duty, so any criminal allegation will be addressed by civilian federal authorities, said Leighton, the Illinois National Guard spokesman. Leighton said Hasan Edmonds reported to the Joliet base one weekend a month and that he did two weeks of active duty training — typically in the summer. Hasan Edmonds enlisted in 2011, but had never deployed. He worked as a supply specialist that was part of a logistics unit providing supplies and other services to the 33rd Infantry Brigade Combat Team, Leighton said.

Children are suffering damage to their hearts as early as 12 due to poor diets, a study has warned. Researchers found most people start life with robust heart health, but can lose it quickly through unhealthy eating habits. The American study showed few children under the age of 12 had an ideal diet and almost a third (30 per cent) were overweight or even obese. The researchers said the better equipped children are to make healthy choices, the healthier their hearts will be in adulthood. Study senior author Doctor Donald Lloyd-Jones, professor and chair of preventive medicine at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago, said: ‘Our findings indicate that, in general, children start with pretty good blood pressure. Scroll down for video . Scientists said the better equipped children are to make healthy food choices, the healthier their hearts would be in adulthood. They said few children under the age of 12 taking part had an ideal diet, and almost a third were overweight or even obese (file picture posed by model) ‘But if they have a horrible diet, it will drive a worsening body mass index (BMI) and cholesterol levels. ‘The better we can equip our children to make healthy choices, the more cardiovascular health will be preserved into adulthood. ‘And those who preserve their heart health into middle age live much longer and are much healthier while they live.’ Researchers examined BMI, healthy diet, total cholesterol and blood pressure – four of the seven components of heart health – in children aged two to 11. In the sample of 8,961 children, the researchers found that all children had at least one ideal measure, but none had all four. An ideal diet score was the least prevalent health indicator, with less than one per cent of children having four or five of the five components of a healthy diet. The experts warned people are losing a lot of 'intrinsic' heart health very early in life, setting them up to be unhealthy adults . The five indicators of a healthy diet include low intake of sugar-sweetened drinks and salt, and high intake of wholegrains, fish, plus fruit and vegetables. Fewer than 10 per cent ate the recommended amounts of fruit and veg of more than 4.5 cups or more per day or fish, and wholegrains were the least frequently achieved component with just three per cent of boys and 2.4 per cent of girls hitting the target. Ninety per cent ate more salt than recommended, and more than half consumed more than the recommended number of calories from sugar-sweetened drinks. Around four out of ten of the children had ‘poor’ or ‘intermediate’ cholesterol levels, according to the findings published in the journal Circulation: Cardiovascular Quality and Outcomes. Researchers found ideal blood pressure was the most common favourable measure of cardiovascular health, ranging from 88 per cent to 93 per cent across sex and racial groups. Previous studies have shown worsening indicators of cardiovascular health, starting in adolescence and continuing through adulthood. Dr Lloyd-Jones added: ‘We really need better surveillance data, especially in children. ‘Information on physical activity, blood glucose and smoking or exposure to second-hand smoke are not available for younger children. ‘Without knowing how much physical activity a child is doing, and therefore how many calories are needed, we can’t scale the diet metrics to a child’s needs. ‘So we used the adult metrics, but understand that it would be difficult for a five-year-old to take in as many fruits and vegetables as an adult. ‘The bottom line is that we need even better data, but what we do see is that we are losing an awful lot of our intrinsic cardiovascular health very early in life, which sets us up to be unhealthy adults.’

Most people start life with robust heart health, but can lose it quickly . US study showed few children under 12 had an ideal diet, third were obese . Experts said the better equipped children are to make healthy choices, the healthier their hearts will be as adults .

Scroll down for video . Scientists said the better equipped children are to make healthy food choices, the healthier their hearts would be in adulthood. They said few children under the age of 12 taking part had an ideal diet, and almost a third were overweight or even obese (file picture posed by model) ‘But if they have a horrible diet, it will drive a worsening body mass index (BMI) and cholesterol levels. ‘The better we can equip our children to make healthy choices, the more cardiovascular health will be preserved into adulthood. ‘And those who preserve their heart health into middle age live much longer and are much healthier while they live.’ Researchers examined BMI, healthy diet, total cholesterol and blood pressure – four of the seven components of heart health – in children aged two to 11. In the sample of 8,961 children, the researchers found that all children had at least one ideal measure, but none had all four. An ideal diet score was the least prevalent health indicator, with less than one per cent of children having four or five of the five components of a healthy diet. The experts warned people are losing a lot of 'intrinsic' heart health very early in life, setting them up to be unhealthy adults . The five indicators of a healthy diet include low intake of sugar-sweetened drinks and salt, and high intake of wholegrains, fish, plus fruit and vegetables. Fewer than 10 per cent ate the recommended amounts of fruit and veg of more than 4.5 cups or more per day or fish, and wholegrains were the least frequently achieved component with just three per cent of boys and 2.4 per cent of girls hitting the target. Ninety per cent ate more salt than recommended, and more than half consumed more than the recommended number of calories from sugar-sweetened drinks. Around four out of ten of the children had ‘poor’ or ‘intermediate’ cholesterol levels, according to the findings published in the journal Circulation: Cardiovascular Quality and Outcomes. Researchers found ideal blood pressure was the most common favourable measure of cardiovascular health, ranging from 88 per cent to 93 per cent across sex and racial groups. Previous studies have shown worsening indicators of cardiovascular health, starting in adolescence and continuing through adulthood. Dr Lloyd-Jones added: ‘We really need better surveillance data, especially in children. ‘Information on physical activity, blood glucose and smoking or exposure to second-hand smoke are not available for younger children. ‘Without knowing how much physical activity a child is doing, and therefore how many calories are needed, we can’t scale the diet metrics to a child’s needs. ‘So we used the adult metrics, but understand that it would be difficult for a five-year-old to take in as many fruits and vegetables as an adult. ‘The bottom line is that we need even better data, but what we do see is that we are losing an awful lot of our intrinsic cardiovascular health very early in life, which sets us up to be unhealthy adults.’ [/INST] Most people start life with robust heart health, but can lose it quickly .

Rafal Dowgwillowicz-Nowicki (above) has been charged with raping a woman aboard a yacht . A Florida man has been charged with raping a woman aboard a yacht. Rafal Dowgwillowicz-Nowicki of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, is said to have forced the woman to have sex with him while she was a guest aboard the Endless Summer, threatening to kill her if she did not. Dowgwillowicz-Nowicki, who works on the boat, has denied these allegations. Police tell the Sun Sentinel that after a night of heavy drinking, Dowgwillowicz-Nowicki, 39, returned to the vessel at 12:40am and began banging on the door of the stateroom in which the woman was staying. When she opened the door, police claim he pushed his way in and raped the woman, pulling her hair, grabbing her throat and slapping her in the process. Dowgwillowicz-Nowicki told authorities the two did have 'rough sex,' but that is was completely consensual. He also said that the woman seemed to enjoy the encounter. The Polish born Dowgwillowicz-Nowicki was released on $15,000 bail Thursday and told he was not to leave the county, while also having no contact with the woman and staying at least 500-feet away from the Endless Summer. The judge in the case did however tell him he could work on other boats, so long as they were docked and not out at sea. Dowgwillowicz-Nowicki appeared with a Polish translator for his court date, saying only; 'I'm going to stay in the U.S.' Built in 1986, the Endless Summer is 126-foot luxury yacht that can accommodate 10 guests with five staterooms, a spa pool and two wet bars. The vessel, originally built and launched in Australia, underwent a refit in 2009, and can reach a cruising speed of 22 knots.
