A valet parking attendant managed to plough a 200mph supercar through the front of a shop after mistaking the brake for the throttle in a Ferrari 599 GTO worth £300,000. The Dutch owner of the 2012 supercar was waiting in the Hotel Exedra after attending a meeting of the Ferrari Owner's Club with his wife in Anzio, south of Rome. The car's owner entrusted the car, which is one of the most powerful ever produced by Ferrari, to a parking attendant who attempted to return it to the hotel in a timely manner. Scroll down for video . Parking attendant Roberto Cinti was driving the Ferrari, pictured, when he mistook the throttle for the brake . The £300,000 supercar can hit 60mph in just 3.3 seconds and ploughed through the shop front . However, instead of pressing the brake when approaching a shop front, the driver mashed the throttle, unleashing 671bhp from the magnificent 6.0-litre V12 engine, which ordinarily could propel the car to 60 miles per hour in less than 3.5 seconds. The Corriere della Sera said that the driver, Roberto Cinti, 38, told police following the accident: 'I got confused. Instead of the brake, I pressed down on the accelerator.' He blamed the car's semi-automatic transmission for bamboozling him. The identity of the car's owner is not known, although insurance investigators are believed to be looking into the cause of the crash. Only three Ferraris have been designated GTO and only 599 of the latest model were produced. Such is the exclusivity of the 599 GTO, that owners could not simply arrive at their local Ferrari dealership seeking to purchase the model. Instead, they had to be invited by the Italian company to hand over their cash. Only 599 of the Ferrari 599 GTO model were built, which is the manufacturer's fastest ever road car .

Ferrari made 599 of the cars which are their fastest ever road going model . Owners had to be invited by Ferrari to buy the limited edition model . Roberto Cinti unleashed the car's 671bhp V12 engine instead of the brake . The car ploughed through the front of a shop causing extensive damage .

A Hollywood-inspired experiment to help dementia patients by waking them up with video recordings from loved ones is taking place in New York. The hope is that the videos shown to residents of a care home in the city will ease their confusion, forgetfulness and agitation. The idea is borrowed from the 2004 Adam Sandler film 50 First Dates, in which Drew Barrymore's character suffers a brain injury and memory loss each day. A suitor, played by Sandler, uses videos to remind her of him. Charlotte Dell, director of social services at Hebrew Home in Riverdale, said the film was 'fluff', but added it inspired her to think about how the idea could help residents. The film 50 First Dates starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore has inspired a new dementia experiment taking place at a care home in Riverdale, New York . 'We're looking to see if we can set a positive tone for the day,' without using drugs, she said. 'What better way to start the day than to see the face and hear the voice of someone you love wishing you a wonderful morning?' As in the film, each day a new video is shown to residents. Relatives are encouraged to take part to say good morning, use memory-triggering personal anecdotes and remind their loved ones that care home staff will be helping them get dressed and ready for the day. People suffering Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia often fell confused and anxious in the morning. The programme is designed to help those who are in the early to moderate stages of dementia, those who are still likely to recognise the people in the video and understand what they are saying. Ms Dell said: 'Do we know for sure that they know, this is my daughter, this is my son? No. 'But they recognise them as somebody they care about and love.' The Hebrew Home is planning to evaluate the programme next month, with the aim of expanding it to several hundred residents in its memory-care 'neighbourhoods'. Ms Dell said anecdotal evidence so far from staff at the home is 'very positive'. Robert Abrams, a geriatric psychiatrist at New York Presbyterian Hospital said the pilot is 'both innovative and thoughtful'. 'You've got a group of people with dementia who don't really grasp the nature and purpose of their surroundings or the circumstances that compelled them to be there,' he said. 'Consequently they're alone and at sea and feel frightened and even abandoned by family.' Resident Louisa Irving, 94, is one of several dementia sufferers at Hebrew Care Home, who is woken up each morning with a video recording from a loved one to help ease confusion and agitation . Her daughter Tamara Rusoff-Hoen, pictured in the striped top, records messages including stories of happy memories and family get-togethers, signing off with the family goodbye, 'Kiss, kiss, I love you' Among the residents taking part in the study is 94-year-old dementia sufferer, Louisa Irving. She wakes up each day to a video from her daughter Tamara Rusoff-Hoen, who sings: 'Good morning, merry sunshine, how did you wake so soon?' to her mother. The five-minute video includes stories of happy memories and get-togethers, and often inspires a bright smile from Ms Irving, before her daughter signs off with the family goodbye: 'Kiss, kiss, I love you.' Ms Rusoff-Hoen, said: 'Some of her agitation comes from, "Who the heck are these people? Why am I here?".' Although Ms Rusoff-Hoen, who lives a few hours away in Ghent, visits her mother three days a week, she said the video allows her to fill in the gaps. 'I am there with my mum, loving her and wishing her a wonderful day and helping her to feel better because there's not a lot I can do for her.' Other videos include a woman reminding her mother, in Spainish, to eat and take her medications before telling her: 'I love you, mum.' And in another, a man encourages his mother, telling her: 'You used to tell me that attitude is everything. You said that it's best to start off on the sunny side of the street.'

Residents at Hebrew Care Home in New York are woken by video recordings from loved ones to help ease their confusion and agitation . Idea was inspired by the 2004 film 50 First Dates starring Adam Sandler . Experiment will be evaluated next month but results are 'very positive'

A 16-year-old filmed throwing a kitten against a door and flushing it in the toilet has been banned from keeping animals for ten years after it had to be put down because of the abuse it suffered. The teenager, who cannot be named for legal reasons, had to look away as disturbing footage of Tilly meowing in distress as he threw her against the door was played in Swindon Magistrates Court. He claimed he was 'accidentally' high on 'white rhino' - super-strength cannabis - and was being egged on by friends when the abuse occurred. Scroll down for video . Disturbing scenes: Defendant flushes Tilly's head in the toilet while high on super-strength cannabis . Tilly was held by her tail and dangled in bathwater. She was in such a sorry state when RSPCA inspectors found her that she had to be put to sleep. Inspectors said she suffered a lot in her short life . Owner Sarah Reeves was filmed throwing her cat against the walls, alerting the RSPCA to the abuse . The defendant admitted to two counts of causing unnecessary suffering and was given a nine-month referral order and banned for keeping animals for ten years. At an earlier hearing, Tilly's owner, Sarah Reeves, 19, was also given a ten-year ban from keeping animals. The RSPCA became aware of Tilly's condition when friends filmed Reeves throwing the young cat against the walls of her home, where the male had been living for a month, the court heard. RSPCA Inspector Miranda Albinson said when she arrived, the cat was cowering under a blanket, weighing just a third of what she should weigh, cold to the touch and 'clearly dying'. She said: 'This cat suffered a great deal in its very short life.' Tanya James, prosecuting the 16-year-old, told the court: 'The vet was asked to consider all the evidence in relation to this defendant, and in his opinion, it shows him subjecting the cat concerned to mental and physical suffering when he flushed her in the toilet. 'The cat was further distressed when it was forced to cling on to him (the defendant), and being dropped in the bath was a further traumatic experience. 'The cat would have been suffering considerable stress and anxiety throughout the incident. 'He states the cat was locked in the bathroom 24/7 and rarely got fed. 'He had been living at the address for a month, and said he had kicked the cat in the stomach in a play fight. 'He agreed he had been cruel to Tilly. 'On the day in question he had come back to the house and there was a group of males smoking weed and Sarah asked him to put Tilly in the bathroom.' Mark Glendenning, defending the youth, said: 'The cat suffered at the hands of the co-defendant which is why it had to be euthanised. 'He can give no credible explanation as to why this happened, other than he did not give it any thought, which is worrying in itself. 'There is some talk he will have to rely on food banks, and he was effectively sofa-surfing.' Linda Raine, Chair of the Bench, told the youth: 'This was a horrible incident. I notice you couldn't bring yourself to even look at the video. 'Unfortunately we had to.'

John Mayer, Russell Brand - there are certain types of men women know are bad bets but fall for anyway and even bright women like Katy Perry and Jennifer Aniston aren't immune. But while no one's perfect and some troubled souls are worth saving, others are just trouble. All of the behavioural traits below are danger signs, offering six crucial clues to spot the dysfunctional people most likely to break your heart. Scroll down for video . Tracey Cox provides advice on whether he loves you or will break your heart . 1. How 'in touch' with themselves are they? Are they aware of their character and personality faults? Do they know their strengths? They don't have to have spent the last decade on a therapist's couch to have done some soul-searching. Have they sorted out the emotional baggage from childhood and past relationships or are they trailing it along behind them? Find out: Ask questions. What are your family like? Are you close to them? Are you friends with your exes? Why did you split up? Did it hurt? How do you stay positive? 2. Are they affectionate and able to express their feelings? Yes, yes, we all know men like to disappear into their caves. But the person who knows what they're feeling and shares their feelings with you is going to be a lot easier to share a bathroom with than the person who locks themselves in it. Find out: Ask them anything to see if they will open up. You seem a bit distant tonight, anything bothering you? Do they grab your arm, kiss you spontaneously, say nice things – or does hugging them feel like you're cuddling an ironing board? 3. Are they honest? Are they a 'good' person? Can you count on them to do the right thing by you and others? Do they treat their friends and family well? Do the right thing in business? Whatever your partner does to other people, they're more than capable of doing to you. Find out: Do they have lots of friends, or have much contact with their family? Are they generally popular, or do people seem a little distrustful of them and stand-offish? Are they well liked at work? 4. Are they an adult? Sounds like a stupid question but some people simply don't grow up. Does this person know how to cook, clean, look after themselves, pay bills on time and manage their money? Are they mature enough to know they can't afford a Lamborghini when they're barely covering the rent? Tracey says that if he doesn't like himself then it will be difficult to form a happy relationship . Find out: Does their home look like a bomb's hit it? Is there lots of unopened mail (unpaid bills) stacked up on the side? Do they seem to be living beyond their means for the job they have? Do they ever ask you to lend them cash or bail them out? 5. Do they like themselves? The more they like who they are, the healthier your relationship will be. The more hang-ups they have, the more you'll be used as their therapist. Find out: Do all your conversations centre around them? Do you spend a great deal of time solving their problems and boosting their self-confidence? Do you feel exhausted after you've seen them? 6. Are they positive and happy most of the time? Do they look for problems or solutions? Are they a doer or a procrastinator? I once went out with a guy who was constantly depressed because of all the starving children in the world. He thought he was holier-than-thou because they were never far from his mind. I thought he was a hypocritical son of a b****. His permanent hangdog expression didn't help one iota – but a big fat cheque from his very healthy bank account might have. Find out: If they're unhappy or depressed, do they have a good reason for it? Do they often seem overwhelmed by life itself? Are they moody – up one minute, down the next?

A bomb technician has used his expertise to create an Easter egg hunt for blind children - using beeping eggs. David Hyche, now a special agent at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF), developed the technology nine years ago when his four-month-old daughter turned blind. A transmitter is placed inside plastic eggs that let off a high-pitched beeping sound. Now Hyche has passed on the idea to the Alabama Institute for Deaf and Blind in Birmingham. Festive invention: Blind children in Birmingham, Alabama, have celebrated Easter early by hunting for plastic eggs that let of a beeping sound. They trade the eggs in for candy . The device: Bomb expert David Hyche put a transmitter in a plastic egg so his daughter could join the fun . 'With my daughter, one of her first phrases was, 'I do it myself.' She wants to do it by herself and most of these kids want to do that too,' he told WBRC. 'It's logical for people who are explosives investigators. It's just a battery, beeper and a switch... pretty simple.' Giggling and running around the play area at Brimingham's regional center, the blind children filled baskets with the beeping eggs, before trading them in for candy. 'We love to give the opportunity for our children with disabilities and their families to come out and have the same opportunity as everybody else does,' said Tamara Harrison with the Alabama Institute. Hyche (pictured) came up with the device when his daughter turned blind nine years ago . The father has shared his idea with the Alabama Institute for Deaf and Blind (pictured) this year .

No mechanical faults have been found on a plane that was forced to make an emergency landing when three passengers passed out and others felt sick. SkyWest Airlines flight 5622 was flying from Chicago to Connecticut when the pilot was alerted to a potential loss of cabin pressure. As an increasing number of passengers began to complain of dizzyness, and three lost consciousness, the pilot plunged the aircraft into a terrifying dive to drop 30,000 feet in just eight minutes - before landing in Buffalo, New York. But despite the calamitous events, an investigation has discovered nothing unusual about the mechanics of the plane. Scroll down for video . Emergency responders came onboard SkyWest Flight 5622 after it made an emergency landing in Buffalo, New York, on Wednesday following a reported loss of cabin pressure . Mary Cunningham, a nurse, who was on board the flight assisted one passenger who passed out, getting her oxygen. She said that the plane did not land because of just one person's medical emergency as a lot of people on board began to feel dizzy and unwell . Passenger Frank Angelo said he immediately feared for the safety of his wife and kids as the plane 'nosedived' 30,000 feet in just eight minutes . 'You could feel something in the air, something just wasn't right,' recalled one passenger before the plane plunged miles in mere minutes. Passenger Larry Johnson, right, said: 'A lot of people with their heads down praying. It just felt like a re-enactment' While federal safety officials had no explanation for what happened on the aircraft on Wednesday, aviation experts said the flight crew did the right thing by quickly descending to an altitude with life-giving oxygen levels. The situation arose about an hour after take-off, when three passengers on the Embraer 175 twin-jet from Chicago to Connecticut lost consciousness and others began feeling dizzy and sick. Emergency nurse, Mary Cunningham, said she helped treat an unconscious passenger when another passed out beside her and others nearby started feeling faint. 'The flight attendant and myself started not feeling very well while we were in the middle of the flight helping out. I had to sit down. I was short-of-breath, light-headed [and] didn't feel great,' said Cunningham to NBC Connecticut. Initially, reports came in that a cabin door had opened during the flight, leading to dramatic loss in cabin pressure. When the plane landed at 11.40am, the FAA issued a statement saying the crew 'reported a pressurization problem and declared an emergency', shortly before landing in Buffalo. However, in a second statement the FAA put out on Wednesday afternoon, there was no mention of a 'pressurization' issue. When contacted by the LA Times to explain this, a spokesperson for the FAA would not say why the change was made. However, an official with knowledge of the incident told the LA Times that crew members did report that a door had come open at 38,000 feet and was causing 'rapid depressurization.' When the plane landed, SkyWest initially claimed that the aircraft landed 'out of an abundance of caution' because of one sick passenger and denied there was any mechanical malfunction - which conflicted with reports from people on the plane. Late on Wednesday, the airline said new information from medical personnel confirmed that 'a total of three passengers reported a loss of consciousness while on the flight'. On landing this was declared untrue and SkyWest airlines said they were examining what happened on the aircraft midflight. SkyWest spokeswoman Marissa Snow said: 'There were no reports before the unconscious passenger prior to the initiated descent, but I can't speak to what may have been the specific cause of their feeling ill.' SkyWest added that there was no indication of any problems with the doors and that its mechanics were inspecting the aircraft. Nose dive: Emergency vehicles surround a SkyWest Airlines plane, operating as United Express, that made an emergency landing at Buffalo Niagara International Airport on Wednesday . Flight 5622, from Chicago to Hartford, made an emergency landing in Buffalo . Passenger, Dave Barkley, 46, told the LA Times that he was sat near the front of the aircraft and he saw a flight attendant race to the cockpit and tell the pilot passengers were falling unconscious. Suddenly, the pilot announced the plane was going to begin an emergency landing over Detroit. 'They said there was a pressure problem with the plane,' he said. 'There was no door flying open or anything like that. It was something very gradual.' Barkley said that while the passengers were calm, he was annoyed about with public statements the airline has made. 'The way SkyWest is reporting it is that someone got sick, and they had to land,' he told the LA Times. 'But the way we understand it, they got sick because of the lack of oxygen or lack of pressure in the plane.' A nurse flying on the Embraer 175 twin-jet described a growing sense of panic and hysteria as she herself began to feel ill while treating two women who had passed out. It was at that moment the pilot took decisive action and put the plane into a steep dive rather than take any risks. 'The passenger was lethargic. She was responding but her color was off. She didn't look good. We got her some oxygen. She was much more alert after getting the oxygen,' the nurse, Mary Cunningham, tells NBC Connecticut. Cunningham says she returned to her seat once the woman felt better. It was then when she says the woman sitting behind the first passed out, as well. Then Cunningham, herself, took a turn.

Courtesy WKBW . 'The flight attendant and myself started not feeling very well while we were in the middle of the flight helping out. I had to sit down. I was short-of-breath, light-headed [and] didn't feel great.' Passenger Larry Johnson said, 'A lot of people with their heads down praying. It just felt like a re-enactment.' While another passenger said, 'you could just feel something in the air, something just wasn't quite right.' For nearly eight minutes, the plane descended at a very steep incline, dropping as fast as 7,000 feet per minute, while flying over Lake Erie, flight tracking service FlightAware said. The flight originated in Chicago and had been bound for Bradley International Airport in Windsor Locks, Connecticut. It landed at Buffalo Niagara International Airport in Buffalo at about 11:40 a.m. SkyWest Inc., which is based in St. George, Utah, said the jet landed safely and a passenger received medical attention before being released. An additional 15 adults and two children were evaluated upon landing, but none required treatment outside the airport, airport spokesman C. Douglas Hartmayer said. 'Anyone who said they didn't feel well was treated at the gate,' he said. 'We want to understand the circumstances and what SkyWest knows before we decide what, if any, action we would take,' said Kelly Nantel, spokeswoman for the National Transportation Safety Board. Snow said the plane's oxygen masks did not release. According to WKBW, one passenger said the plane 'nosedived' and crew told fliers that there was a loss of cabin pressure, but that turned out not to be true. SkyWest has 29 Embraer 175s in its fleet. The aircraft seats 76 passengers with two flight attendants. In a statement, the FAA said: 'SkyWest Airlines Flight 5622, an Embraer E170 aircraft, landed safely at Buffalo International Airport at 11.40am after the crew declared an emergency. 'The FAA will investigate.' The Skywest flight made an emergency landing at Buffalo Airport (pictured) on its journey from Chicago O'Hare to Bradley International Airport in Connecticut .

Investigation found nothing wrong with the plane despite the events . SkyWest Inc, based in St. George, Utah, said the jet landed safely and three passengers received medical attention before being released . The Embraer 175 twin-jet, traveling from Chicago to Hartford, Connecticut, carrying 75 passengers dropped from 38,000ft to 10,000ft in three minutes . The FAA said initial information indicated the Embraer E170 jet may have had a pressurization problem . Three passengers passed out on board the flight and an additional 15 adults and two children were evaluated upon landing .

Lewis Hamilton took a well-earned break from his blistering start to the Formula One season, taking his brother Nicolas out for a spin out in LA. The two-time Formula One world champion took time out from training ahead of the Spanish Grand Prix next week to go cruising with his younger sibling in his stylish Shelby Cobra. The pair can be seen posing in caps and shades as the Mercedes driver rolled down to the beach and along one of LA's busiest freeways. Nicolas Hamilton takes a selfie with his brother Lewis whilst the pair take a ride in the LA sunshine . Nicolas posted to his Facebook page: 'All in Red today for my last day in LA, chillin & relaxing ahead of an exciting year! ‪#‎BTCC‬' The 23-year-old younger half-brother of Lewis, who suffers from the neurological condition cerebral palsy, posted the first image above image on his facebook page, with the caption: 'Had a great day today cruising with my bro in LA. Heading back to the UK now for my #BTCC preparations.' Nicolas, who raced in the Renault Clio Cup in 2011 and 2012, will become the first driver with a disability to compete in the British Touring Championship when he competes in the first of five rounds at Croft Circuit in June. It is exciting times in the Hamilton household, and Nicolas' elder brother Lewis, who has already achieved a first-place podium finish in Australia, China and Bahrain this year, was keen to share the moment of brotherly romance on his Instagram account. Accompanying the first picture below, he wrote: 'Cruising around with my bro in my 1966 all original 427 Shelby Cobra, after a great weekend in LA!

Pep Guardiola was left purring at Bayern Munich's first-half performance against Porto as the club put a turbulent week behind them to storm in to the Champions League semi-finals. A 3-1 first leg defeat in Portugal last week followed by the dramatic resignation of long-serving club doctor Hans-Wilhelm Muller-Wohlfahrt had turned the spotlight on Guardiola heading in to the tie. But the Bayern boss reminded the watching world why he is considered by many to be the best manager in the business as his side raced in to a 5-0 lead before half-time on Tuesday night. Bayern Munich players celebrate in front of their fans after the 6-1 demolition of Porto on Tuesday night . Pep Guardiola looks animated as he issues instructions from the touchline at the Allianz Arena . 'It's easy to love my players now,' said Guardiola. 'I am the coach of extraordinary players. I didn't expect such a first half.' Typical of the man though, Guardiola found faults in Bayern's second half performance as Porto pulled back to 5-1 before Xabi Alonso added a late sixth. 'We can still play better,' he added. 'We lost the ball here and there and we can improve on that. We had a few problems in the second half. 'They had only a few chances but you should never relax in the Champions League.' Guardiola talks to captain Philipp Lahm (third right) as Mario Gotze (far left), Thiago and Thomas Muller listen in . It is believed that Muller-Wohlfahrt and his team resigned as they felt they were blamed for the first-leg defeat, though neither the doctor, the club or Guardiola have said as much in public. Bayern find out their semi-final opponents on Thursday with Guardiola's former club Barcelona already through to the last four and the winners of Real Madrid v Atletico Madrid and Monaco v Juventus to join them in the draw.

The first lady of North Korea has appeared in public for the first time since December as part of celebrations marking the birthday of the country's founding leader Kim Il-Sung. A grinning Ri Sol-Ju, wearing what appeared to be a wedding ring on her left hand, was pictured clapping next to her smiling husband Kim Jong-un during a men's football match at Kim Il Sung Stadium on Monday, the North Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said. The images of the couple at a podium flanked by top party officials were published in state media. Scroll down for video . Laughing with her husband, Kim Jong-un, as the pair watch a celebratory football match, Ri Sol-Ju is seen for the first time since December . The match was being held as part of a lavish series of events celebrating the 103rd birthday of Kim Il-Sung, the young leader's grandfather, which falls on Wednesday. North Korea designates the 'Day of the Sun' as a rare two-day national holiday, with art performances, exhibitions and sporting events, and pilgrimages to the late leader's birthplace in Pyongyang. A former member of the North's Unhasu Orchestra, Ri was last seen in public in December 2014, when she and her husband attended a ceremony to commemorate the third anniversary of the death of Kim Jong-un's father, Kim Jong-Il. Their marriage was only revealed in July 2012 when pictures emerged of a young woman accompanying Kim at official events in a break from the past, when the North's first ladies were kept out of the limelight. She was pictured wearing stylish, expensive-looking outfits and on one occasion sported what appeared to be a Christian Dior handbag, in a country plagued by chronic poverty. Their marriage was only revealed in July 2012 when pictures emerged of a young woman accompanying Kim at official events . But Ri has been out of the spotlight since December for unknown reasons. The Kim dynasty has ruled the isolated state for nearly seven decades with an iron fist and pervasive personality cult. Kim Il-Sung led North Korea from its establishment in 1948 until his death on July 8, 1994. He was succeeded by his son, Kim Jong-Il, who also ruled until his death in December 2011 when power was transferred to his son and current leader Kim Jong-un. KCNA said 'an endless stream of people' was visiting, Mangyongdae, the birthplace of Kim Il-Sung, as the 'Day of the Sun' draws near. The images of the couple at a podium flanked by top party officials were published in state media . On Sunday more than 800 runners took place in an international marathon watched by hundreds of fans, including some 600 from abroad, as part of the celebrations. 'Attending the race were more than 600 marathon fans from dozens of countries including Malaysia, Singapore, Sweden, Finland, UK and Italy,' KCNA said. The North announced in February that the April 12 marathon would only be open to domestic runners this year, because of lingering concerns over the Ebola epidemic in west Africa. But it last month reversed a ban on foreigners taking part in the annual run, after lifting strict travel restrictions aimed at keeping out the Ebola virus.

Alan Davey controversially laid bare the difficulties of the station's top job in an interview on Radio 4's Feedback programme . The controller of BBC Radio 3 has branded audiences ignorant and claims broadcasting classical music has become more challenging as a result. Alan Davey controversially laid bare the difficulties of the station's top job in an interview on Radio 4's Feedback programme. Mr Davey was asked about changes to general classical music knowledge over the last 30 years. He said: 'If you look back at the Third Programme (the original name for Radio 3), they were bringing high culture to a relatively mass audience but they could assume that their audience knew everything. 'They did not need to have the ins and outs of classical music explained to them. 'The modern audience might not be getting the same education in music in school as they might have done a few years ago – not consistently so, anyway. 'We have to perhaps offer more explanation and context for works. 'It's not lowering the standard, it's not making the content simple. It's about how we present it.' Mr Davey, who until January was chief executive of Arts Council England, added: 'I believe there are different ways to draw people into music. 'There's the Classic FM way, and they're very good at that. 'We'll be presenting more longer pieces and greater variety of composers, and we also provide the additional different kinds of music and the cultural commentary throughout.' The station has been accused of 'dumbing down' in the past, especially after a drive in 2011 to make it more 'accessible' to a broader audience. Last year Mr Davey's predecessor Roger Wright (above) dismissed as 'complete nonsense' claims that the station was dumbing down . With just two million listeners, Radio 3 is the least listened-to of the BBC's main stations. Last year Mr Davey's predecessor Roger Wright dismissed as 'complete nonsense' claims that the station was dumbing down and said there were distinct differences between the stations. He said: 'I just don't recognise it at all. Apparently we do phone-ins? We don't. 'We haven't had a request show for a long, long time. You do hear one listener voice on the breakfast show suggesting a piece of music — that's not exactly a phone-in. So it's complete nonsense.'

Theo Walcott understands just how difficult it is now to hold down a place in the Arsenal side, who he says have been the 'best team in Europe' this year and could lift the title next season if everyone stays fit. The Gunners' slim hopes of overhauling Chelsea's 10-point lead at the top of the Barclays Premier League were all but extinguished following a goalless draw at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday. Walcott watched on from the bench again before a late substitute appearance, with the forward's last club start having been back in March. Theo Walcott believes Arsenal have been the 'best team in Europe' in the second half of the season . Arsenal had earned eight successive Premier League victories before the 0-0 draw against Chelsea . The 26-year-old - who recovered from a serious knee injury last season, but has yet to agree a new long-term deal - feels such strength in depth can only be positive for the squad, if sometimes frustrating for individuals. Fellow England internationals Danny Welbeck, Jack Wilshere and Kieran Gibbs also did not make the first XI against Chelsea. 'There is a lot of competition for places so everyone seems to lift a gear and play extremely well. It makes it a bit more difficult for people to get into the team,' Walcott said, quoted on the club's official website, www.arsenal.com. 'I think, especially this season, not many people thought we would be challenging for the Premier League. 'In this calendar year, we have been the best team in Europe. 'It is the strongest the squad has been and everyone is staying fit as well. The English midfielder (left) has struggled to maintain a first team place under Arsene Wenger this season . 'There aren't many injuries in the squad, which is important. If we had an injury-free season, I think we could lift the title.' Arsenal head to Hull on Bank Holiday Monday looking to keep pressure on Manchester City in the race for second place, and with it automatic qualification for next season's Champions League. Captain Mikel Arteta is set to step up his training this week after an ankle problem hampered recovery from a calf injury, while midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is another continuing rehabilitation from an inflamed groin which has seen him out since the FA Cup win at Manchester United last month.

Former FBI Director Louis Freeh nearly died last summer when he was involved in a car crash driving near his summer home in Barnard, Vermont. Current FBI director James Comey and Vermont Senator Patrick Leahy spoke about the accident for the first time last week, during an appearance at Chaplain College. They say 64-year-old Freeh severed an artery in one of his legs and would have bled to death in just 60 seconds if it weren't for the quick response from paramedics and an FBI agent on the scene. Scroll down for video . Near-death experience: New information has been revealed about the devastating car crash former FBI Director Louis Freeh (pictured above) was involved in last summer in Vermont . 'Louis would have died within a minute or so. They stopped the bleeding,' Leahy said, according to the Burlington Free Press. 'He credits those folks with saving his life,' Comey added. While Freeh told police that he has no memory of the crash, it's believed that he fell asleep behind the wheel while going about 60 to 65 mph on Vermont 12 on August 25, 2014. Freeh lost control of his vehicle and crossed into oncoming traffic before driving off the road and into a tree. He nearly ran into three other drivers on the road, who were luckily able to swerve out of the way before crashing head-on with Freeh. It's believed that Freeh fell asleep behind the wheel before the August 25, 2014 crash. No one else was injured. Above, a scene from the wreck . Eight months later, Freeh is still recovering from the crash and walking with the aid of a cane. Above, another view of the crash scene . After the crash, Freeh was airlifted to Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon, New Hampshire and was eventually transferred to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Washington. Eight months later, Leahy says Freeh is recovering well and recently stopped by his office for a visit. 'He walks with a cane. Most people wish they could move that well,' the senator said. 'His recovery has been remarkable.' Freeh was the director for the FBI from 1993 until 2003. He released a statement after Comey and Leahy's statements, saying: 'May God bless all of these individuals who are so instrumental in my recovery.'

Officials spoke about the devastating single-vehicle crash in August for the first time last week . Current FBI Director James Comey and Vermont Senator Patrick Leahy say Freeh severed a major artery in the crash .

Parents have been outraged to discover a heritage railway attraction was used to shoot a 'hardcore schoolgirl' porn film. The 28 minute movie in which a woman, dressed as a school girl, has sex with a man in a vintage train carriage was filmed on board the Epping Ongar historic railway in south-west Essex. Locals in the area were shocked to learn the location, a favourite with families and children, had been rented out by its bosses to American Adult film company Brazzers, the Brentwood Gazette reported. Scroll down for video . In the 28 minute movie a woman dressed as a school girl has sex with a man on board an Epping Ongar train . The storyline, which is apparently set in the 1940s, then moves to a wooden-panelled train carriage . Locals were shocked to learn the location had been rented out to American Adult film company Brazzers . In the opening scene of the pornographic film a young woman dressed as a school girl walks along the clearly recognisable train station platform. The storyline, which is apparently set in the 1940s, then moves to one of the attraction's wooden-panelled train carriages where the pair have sex on the seats. Parents were quoted as saying they were disgusted and mortified by the decision to use the railway as the setting for the porn film, which has now been viewed more than 235,000 times. Mum-of-two Amanda Mendel from Fyfield Road in Rainham, Essex said it did not seem right that the railway should present itself as a family business and then allow the filming of 'an orgy train'. She said she would be think twice about taking her children on the railway after what had gone on. Mrs Mendel added that the whole thing was 'disgusting'. Similarly Carla Ince 41 from in Brentwood Road in Marden Ash, said it was 'terrible' and a 'stupid, disgusting decision'. She highlighted its hypocrisy explaining that the Epping Ongar railway advertised itself for Christmas and Easter events. Parents were quoted as saying they were disgusted and mortified by the decision to use the railway . Epping Ognar Railway has apologised for allowing the railway to be used as a backdrop for pornography . Epping Ognar Railway has apologised for allowing the heritage railway to be used as a backdrop for pornography. Its business development manager, Dean Wilton, said the decision was an 'error of judgement' and that the attraction had put in place policy safeguards to ensure the refusal of 'any further approaches for this kind of production'. He apologised for a second time for any offence caused. Originally opened in 1865 as the final section of the Eastern Railway Branch line, the Epping Ognar Railway was run by London Underground from 1949. It ran until 1994 when it was closed and its passenger service was withdrawn. It lay in disuse until restoration to turn it into a historic site began in 1994. The heritage line operates between Ongar through North Weald to the boundary of the London Underground’s Central line. It is connected to a historic bus line which connects North Weald to Epping tube station for the ease of its customers. The railway is predominantly staffed by volunteers as indeed are most heritage lines. The Ongar Epping line has been lovingly restored to ensure its features closely resemble the historical past. The station and signal signalbox at Ongar has been painted and recreated to look as it would have on the Great Eastern Railway in the 19th Century. The North Weald station box has been restored to its original 1930s and 60s appearance.

Sportsmen will go to extreme lengths to mend their battered bodies ahead of the next challenge, and that includes inserting multiple needles into their necks. English golfer Ian Poulter is an acupuncture convert who often uses the painful-looking alternative medicine technique to recover from the various strains that come with the sport. The 39-year-old posted an Instagram picture of back of his head with eight needles stuck in his neck, accompanied by the caption: 'I feel like a pin cushion'. Ian Poulter shared an Instagram picture of what looked like a painful acupuncture session . The English golfer has used the alternative medicine technique to aid his recovery in the past . Poulter has just come off a strong finish at the US Masters where successive final rounds of 67 saw him finish tied sixth at Augusta, while sending a strong message to impressed Ryder Cup captain Darren Clarke. 'I was proud of the way I played over the weekend - I only missed four greens in regulation in the final two rounds, which is a bit special around here,' Poulter said. 'I gave myself so many chances, and I could have even gone lower over these last 36. It makes the first couple of days even more frustrating, because I left far too many spots in really bad places - and I should know better at this place.' Clarke, who partnered Poulter at the event told Sporting Life: 'That's the best I have ever seen him play. It was a 67 that could have been a 63 standing on his head.' Poulter is confident of winning a first tour title since the HSBC Champions in 2012, saying: 'I know I will. Poulter, accompanied by fellow Englishman Paul Casey, finished tied sixth at the US Masters . Europe Ryder Cup captain Darren Clarke says Poulter's final round was the best he's ever seen him play . Poulter is not the only leading sportsman to seek out unorthodox treatments to aid recovery. World boxing champion Floyd Mayweather Jnr. recently shared a video of himself receiving a SubZero recovery cool down in Las Vegas ahead of his $300million mega-fight with Manny Pacquiao in May. The treatment known as kriotherapy (or cryotherapy) involves exposing the body to freezing temperatures of -200C for between 1-3minutes to assist muscle recovery as well as decrease inflammation and soreness after a training session. Kriotherapy has also been used by the Wales rugby union team as well as Tottenham players including Andros Townsend, Christian Eriksen and Jan Vertonghen - while Real Madrid superstar has had his own 'ice chamber' installed at home. Head of sports science at Manchester City (and formerly with Spurs), Dr Sam Erith, has said: 'Kriotherapy means you can train more, to get fitter more quickly. With the players who have been rehabilitating, they've been training three times a day.' Floyd Mayweather Jnr sits in a kriotherapy ice chamber ahead of his mega-fight with Manny Pacquiao .

Other alternative treatments including that used by NBA player Amar'e Stoudemire are even stranger. The New York Knicks star revealed he's been taking red wine baths over the past six months to help rejuvenate his body. The 31-year-old, who has had long-standing problems with his knees during his career, believes the remedy has helped him recover much better after games and revitalised him. He said of the treatment: 'The red wine bath is very important to me because it allows me to create more circulation in my red blood cells. 'Plus, it's very hot, so it's like a hot tub. But it's also the red wine ... it just kind of soothes the body. NBA star Amar'e Stoudemire takes a selfie of himself taking a red wine bath to help with his recovery . Robin van Persie is one of several players who have used horse placenta massages to aid recovery . But, perhaps the most unusual alternative treatment is that carried out by Serbian housewife/therapist Marianna Kovacevic who uses the placental fluid from a horse to massage strained muscles. Manchester United striker Robin van Persie is one of several Premier League players who has used the left field method after he attempted to speed up his recovery from an ankle injury picked up during international duty in 2009. 'I am going to try. It cannot hurt and, if it helps, it helps,' he said ahead of the treatment. Manchester City players Pablo Zabaleta, Vincent Kompany and Nigel de Jong were reportedly so impressed by the treatment that they asked for Kovacevic to join the club's medical staff, an offer which ultimately refused.

Two Georgia corrections officers have resigned after a photo emerged on Facebook last week depicting a badly beaten inmate with a leash around his neck flanked by his suspected tormentors. The teenage victim, Cortez Berry, was serving time at the Burruss Correctional Training Center in Forsyth, Georgia, for his role in a 2011 carjacking and robbery. The disturbing image was uploaded to Facebook Friday using a cellphone that had been sneaked into the jail. It shows the 18-year-old Berry hunched down with a swollen eye in front of two shirtless young men, one of whom is holding the leash. Scroll down for video . In the disturbing photo which was uploaded to Facebook on Friday, Cortez Berry can be seen hunched down with a swollen eye in front of two shirtless young men, one who is holding the leash . Demetria Harris is calling for immediate action after a photo showing her badly beaten son with a leash around his neck taken at a Georgia correctional facility appeared on Facebook . 'I was like oh my God! What happened? How'd it happen? It's a terrifying picture to see,' Berry's mother, Demetria Harris, told WRDW last week. In a statement Monday, Georgia corrections officials said Berry has been removed from Burruss Correctional Training Center and placed in protective custody at Macon State Prison. The teenager initially was transferred to the notoriously violent Smith State Prison, sparking an outrage among his relatives. Two Burruss inmates involved in the photo incident were also removed from Burruss. The Georgia Department of Corrections has not released the names of the two jail guards who stepped down from their posts in the aftermath of the Facebook scandal citing an ongoing investigation. Friend Connie Kennedy told The Augusta Chronicle the Berry family want the state to release Cortez because they fear his fellow inmates will target him once he's out of protective custody. Cortez Berry was visited by his aunt on Saturday and he told her that he had been jumped by ten people who beat him and 'choked him to sleep.' 'Pretty much they left him there for dead,' said Shavondria Wright. The incident happened at 3:15 p.m. but he was left unchecked by the guards until 9:45 p.m. that night, she said. 'No one deserves this,' said Harris. 'They're not being protected. I don't care what they're there for, they still need to be protected.' The attack also appears to be gang related. The caption of the photo posted on Facebook reads: 'When you disrespect the Nation, it brings nothing but pain and suffering.' That is understood to be a reference to the gang, G.D. Nation, short for 'gangsta disciples.' Video courtesy of CBS46.com . Berry told visiters on Saturday that he had been jumped by ten people who beat him and 'choked him to sleep' The Department of Corrections is carrying out an investigation into the incident and has the area of the center where the photo was taken under lockdown. Inmates are not supposed to have access to cellphones. Berry is serving an 8 1/2-year sentence for aggravated battery, robbery and theft of a motorvehicle. He was transfered to the medium security detention center last year after violating his probation. His family say they want an assurance from the department that he will be able to pay his debt to society, without being killed. 'We could've lost him. He could've been dead. Especially when they hung the belt around his neck. He could've just been gone,' said Wright. Berry's aunt Shavondria Wright said the family are thankful that he wasn't killed in the incident but they want him to be able to pay his debt to society in safety .

The owner of five horses rescued from rising flood waters during this week’s storm of a decade in New South Wales has revealed the amazing lengths her brother-in-law went to over six terrifying hours to save her horses. Steve Spowart dived down into the freezing cold water to cut the barbed wire and free the horses that had become tangled in fences amidst the floods. The animals’ owner, Sonia Sharrock, praised her ‘absolutely amazing’ brother-in-law, for his incredible feat, saying ‘I don’t know what I would have done without him and my sister’. ‘Steve was cutting the wire, he had to dive right down into the deep water to cut it. It was really difficult and absolutely freezing,’ Ms Sharrock told Daily Mail Australia. Ms Sharrock watched in horror as her stud farm in Woodberry, in Maitland in the Hunter Region of New South Wales - one of the worst affected areas by the storm – rapidly flooded. Scroll down for video . Stud farm owner Sonia Sharrock (right) looked relieved as she managed to save her horses from the NSW floods thanks to help from her brother-in-law Steve Spowart (left) and his surfboard . Steve Spowart paddled out to where the horses were stranded, with concentration etched on his face, before diving down into the freezing water to cut the barbed wire they were trapped in . The brown horse reared up after becoming caught in barbed wire, splashing and throwing Steve back into the storm water . On Tuesday morning the horses were just ankle deep in water ‘but by 1pm it was up to their chest,’ Ms Sharrock said. ‘I was really stressed out and panicking that the water was coming up really fast and I was worried we were going to get caught up,’ she said. In the incredible photos taken of the recue, Mr Spowart – a keen surfer – is seen paddling out into the deep storm water on his surfboard to free the horses. The moving images show the concentration on his face as he moves towards the animals and his concern as he struggles to lead them out of the deep murky water. Steve Spowart spent five hours helping to rescue the horses from the farm in Maitland, NSW . His tough journey to save the animals was captured as he paddled past submerged trees and bushes . In one photo, a startled brown horse attempts to flee as Mr Spowart is kicked backwards into the water. Ms Sharrock, in a green jacket, is seen trying to calm the animal to coax it to follow them without any head collars or leads. ‘The brown horse was my neighbours and he had got caught in barbed wire as he was trying to swim down to get to my horses,’ Ms Sharrock explained. Her horses live just 500m from her house, which is located on a hill, but it took six hours to bring them - and a cow - up to safety in her garden. ‘The surfboard was his idea; he wanted to do that to get in. The problem was the water covered the fences and the horses couldn’t see it so we had to cut them all back to get them out,’ Ms Sharrock said. The brown horse stood off against the two rescuers, Sonia Sharrock and Mr Spowart, in fear of the terrifying floods . The man was helped by Ms Sharrock and her sister as he led two white and one chestnut horse out of the deep water . Barefooted, Steve looked more relieved as he held on tightly to one horse's lead after emerging from the water . Ms Sharrock, in a green coat, talks to a chestnut horse as it follows her to safety out of the storm water . Unlike Mr Spowart who was wearing a wetsuit, Ms Sharrock was a little less prepared and had just ankle length gum boots on her feet after suffering blisters from her full length boots the day before. ‘We didn’t realise it was going to be as big as it was, it took us by surprise. Normally the horses go on the mound and they are fine but this time we realised we’ve got to move them again,’ she added. The flood water is now finally receding but it will be a few weeks before the horses can return to the fields. ‘It’s turned into a big mud pit,’ Ms Sharrock explained. ‘I’m really grateful to my brother-in-law and sister in helping out, I wouldn’t have done it without them. ‘The local community has been brilliant too, we had a guy from a pet produce store ask if he could donate food to us. Everyone has been so good.’ The white horse stands tall amidst the stormy skies in Maitland, an area that has been hit especially hard by the storm . 'The surfboard was his idea; he wanted to do that to get in,' Ms Sharrock said .

It's the festival that fashion forgot - and this weekend celebrities were leading the bad-taste brigade at Coachella. Revellers at the arts and music extravaganza in the Californian desert are known for their 'out there' outfit choices but this year festival-goers wore ever more outlandish looks. Yet even among the acres of exposed flesh, lame pieces, mesh maxi dresses, skintight patterned leggings and leotards, a few stars' dubious style still managed to stand out. Scroll down for video .

But while most of the famous festival-goers committed crimes to fashion, they looked positively demure compared with their fellow merrymakers. It seemed neon was very much the obsession of the weekend, with many people turning up in an array of bright tiny outfits and accessories, including flower-adorned swimming caps and tutus.

The man in the mask is back. But it might take more than a slice of carbon fibre to protect Cesc Fabregas from what could be a quite hateful reception when he takes his first steps at the Emirates Stadium since he left to join Barcelona. That 2011 move was seen and widely accepted - externally - as the prodigal son going home. This next fixture is seen by some as the return of a player who rejected a second coming at Arsenal in favour of Chelsea. He will surely win the league, having already won the Capital One Cup, but what has he lost at the club that made him? What of the line of communication he once had with Arsene Wenger? Cesc Fabregas will be making his first return to the Emirates since leaving Arsenal in 2011 . The 27-year-old is expected to wear a protective mask when he travels to north London this weekend . Fabregas joined Arsenal as a teenager (left) before returning to the Premier League with Chelsea (right) Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger speaks to a young Fabregas after snatching him away from Barcelona in 2004 . It has been suggested they have not spoken since Fabregas made the summer move that got so many backs up. There is nothing terribly unusual in that except they used to be so close, to the extent that Wenger continued to text Fabregas on birthdays and career milestones while he was at Barcelona. ‘He hasn’t spoken to me since I came back,’ Fabregas was quoted as saying in September. ‘It was the kind of relationship I always would have liked to keep. ‘But I'm sure once everything dies down a bit in the future we will talk. There is no problem. I'll always be grateful to him whatever happens.’ Except there is still believed to be only silence from the man he once called his ‘second father’. And for the first time, the Fabregas narrative is something less than delightfully romantic. Until now he had followed a largely clean script. He was the boy who attended his first Barca match as a nine-month-old baby with his grandfather. The tale of how he came to be their player 10 years later is wonderful. The story goes that he was playing for Mataro, 35km north of Barcelona. Rodolfo Borrell used to search the surrounding areas for young players for Barca’s Under 11s side and one day watched Fabregas’s team. Nothing to report. When he came back, two months later in September 1997, he saw a midfielder he simply needed to sign.

He was good at running with the ball, had a fantastic pass over short, medium and long distances. He was very mature for his age and had all the attributes we were looking for at Barcelona at that time. ‘At half-time, I asked the coach why I had not seen this kid before. He admitted that, when he saw me coming, he had decided not to play him because he knew that if I saw him I would take him.’ He ultimately became part of a group that included Lionel Messi, coming through the ranks. His idol was Pep Guardiola and when Fabregas’s parents divorced in 2001, Guardiola handed him a signed shirt with the message: ‘One day, you will be the number four of Barcelona.’ Wenger bestows his wisdom on a young Fabregas during a training session at London Colney in 2008 .

The Arsenal playmaker scores a penalty against Braga in the Champions League in 2010 . Alas, he left for Arsenal in 2003 having not been picked for a single first-team game. By the time he returned in 2011, he had become Arsenal’s youngest first-team player, their captain and a European Championship and World Cup winner with Spain. In 2005, aged 18 and with 60 first-team games already played, he told The Independent: ‘I will always be a fan of Barcelona. But Arsenal gave me an opportunity. It's like you are standing at a station and there's a train that you must take. It's the opportunity of your life. ‘At Barcelona, I was playing for the Under 16s. Here, they gave me the opportunity to play for the reserves straight away, soon the Carling Cup. It gave me the motivation that I needed. Now I want to improve, get more mature, get more experience.’ Fabregas celebrates with Spain team-mate David Villa en route to wining the 2010 World Cup in South Africa .

Fabregas walks off dejected after Arsenal crash out to his boyhood club Barca in the 2011 Champions League . The midfielder's relationship with mentor Wenger became strained after he left Arsenal in 2011 . Six years on from that interview, he detailed his relationship with the club and Wenger as he explained why he was joining Guardiola’s Barcelona. ‘I only won one FA Cup really, and this is the biggest regret I will have in my career, probably, not to be able to lift a trophy as Arsenal captain,’ he said. ‘I will always be an Arsenal fan because what they have done for me is unbelievable and I will never forget it. ‘Wenger is a special person to me. He'll always be a second father to me. I think if Arsenal want to keep being the club they are then they have to always be under his control, because he's the best, everyone respects him, and for me, he will always be the best person that I've met in football. ‘I'll never be able to find the words to express my thanks for what he did for me.’ Fabregas is given a hero's welcome on his return home to the Nou Camp with Barcelona .

Spain stars Andres Iniesta (left), Fernando Torres (centre) and Fabregas crash out of the 2014 World Cup . By that point, it would be hard to blame the rationale in wanting a move to Barcelona, but staff at Arsenal were disappointed in how the switch was pushed through. What followed was a three-season spell that has, perhaps, been unfairly characterised. The suggestion is that he under-performed at Barca, which in part is the fault of the club itself. Upon leaving last summer, the club, oddly, flagged up in an official statement that he tends to flag in the second half of seasons. They were right, as this campaign has proved, but it was unusual for a club to say so much. In any case, he won La Liga, Copa del Rey and Club World Cup winners’ medals and in his second season, only Victor Valdes had more La Liga starts. It was not exceptional, though, and last summer came the chance to leave, bringing with it much of the confusion that still surrounds the midfielder. Wenger himself gave the impression that there is more to know about the circumstances behind the move to Chelsea, saying on Thursday: ‘We will have to discuss that one day. With all the terms.’ The 27-year-old celebrates scoring against Stoke in his debut season at Stamford Bridge .

Fabregas said in a statement last summer that Arsenal ‘decided’ not to trigger an option they held to re-sign him. Wenger has previously claimed that by the time he knew Fabregas was available a deal with Chelsea was almost done. It is interesting to wonder how much from either side is PR and how much is genuine. Did either side really want the other? At the very least Fabregas will likely endure a tough afternoon under his mask on Sunday. He might soon have that league title he craved, but it will not have come without some significant losses.

Darren Bent has revealed an Aston Villa return this summer could be on the cards and discussions have taken place. The former England striker, on loan at Derby County, also said Villa were ‘100 per cent’ correct to sack Paul Lambert. Bent, 31, praised Tim Sherwood, who he knows from Tottenham Hotspur, and opened the door on a shock continuation of his Villa Park career even after his contract expires in June. Darren Bent has scored seven goals on loan in the Championship with promotion-chasing Derby . Paul Lambert was sacked by Aston Villa in February after two-and-a-half seasons at the club . ‘There have been conversations with Villa regarding the future and I need to have a think about things in the summer,’ Bent told the Daily Telegraph. ‘I’m not ruling out going back, just like I wouldn’t rule out staying at Derby because they have given me a lifeline to play football and score goals again. We will have to look at it. ‘A club that size should not have had the seasons we’ve had for the last couple of seasons. I enjoyed the first few years but Paul Lambert came in and it all changed, it all went downhill for me from there. ‘He made those decisions but ultimately he’s not there any more and I think it was 100 per cent right, the best thing for the football club. Bent endured a frustrating time at Villa Park while Lambert was in charge as he was left on the sidelines . Tim Sherwood has inspired at mini-revival at Villa Park since taking over earlier this year . ‘I know Tim Sherwood from Tottenham, he’s an unbelievable motivator and it’s the perfect job for him.’ Bent, who has scored seven goals since going on loan to Derby, also praised Steve McClaren as one of the best managers he has played under. ‘He’s being linked with Sunderland and Newcastle and that shows you how good he is,’ Bent added. ‘Whether we get promoted or not, we’ll definitely be trying to hold on to him this summer. He’s up there with the best of them.’

Dante de Blasio, the son of New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has been accepted into several top colleges including Ivy League universities Yale and Brown, sources close to Gracie Mansion said. The mayor's son, who is 17 and a senior at Brooklyn Technical High School will make his decision by the end of the month, leaving de Blasio in a situation familiar to millions across the country. Despite his six figure salary as mayor and six figure rental income from the two properties he and his wife own in Brooklyn, de Blasio is now expected to turn to financial aid to help pay for his son's elite education. Proud family: Dante (left) with his father, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, his mother Chirlaine McCray and sister, Chiara outside their home in Park Slope, Brooklyn . 'There's going to be a big challenge in figuring out financial aid and visits and all sorts of stuff,' said Mr. de Blasio to the New York Times last week. But while Dante's choice of college is obviously a private matter, how his parents - as champions of the underprivileged - will fund it, is obviously of public interest. Indeed, the almost prohibitive cost of college for some in the United States is often pointed to as a failing of Democratic politicians and their policies. However, with a salary of $225,000 and his daughter, Chiara, already enrolled at Santa Clara University in California, de Blasio has a good case for financial aid. Ivy League: Dante has been accepted into Yale (left) and Brown (right) Universities and will make his decision at the end of the month . Home for the moment: The de Blasio family moved into Gracie Mansion on the Upper East Side of New York City late last year . Harvard: $68,050 . University of Pennsylvania: $66,800 . Columbia: $63,440 . Yale: $63,250 . Dartmouth: $60,201 . Brown: $59,428 . Princeton: $58,965 . Cornell: $47,286 . Indeed, her annual tuition, room and board fees come to $55,000 a year and if Dante was to attend Yale, that would come to in excess of $60,000. Faced with more than $100,000 a year in tuition fees, the mayor may not find himself disqualified from seeking aid said Mark Kantrowitz, the publisher of Edvisors.com, which works in financial aid. 'When you have colleges that are charging 50, 60, $70,000 a year, everybody is going to struggle to pay for college,' he said to the New York Times. However, Kantrowitz admitted in the case of the mayor he is talking about the 1 percent of top earners in the country. De Blasio and his wife Chirlaine McCray received $52,200 in rent from a Park Slope, Brooklyn, home his mother lived in and the family home also in Park Slope they left last year rakes in $4,975 a month. Combined, the two properties value is $2.8 million. However, regardless of how the de Blasio's pay for college, Dante appears to be a strong candidate. He is a champion debater and counts political philosophy his favorite subject according to the New York Times.

They each have a dominant Instagram following and are renown for capturing incredible landscape pictures, but what happens when you send eight of the best photographers on a road trip to the Isle of Skye? In a quest to find the perfect photograph, the intrepid social media giants were sent by Europcar to explore and snap nearly 650 miles in three days, and post their findings with the hashtag #MovingSkyewards. Their breathtaking findings have been seen by a combined following of over one million users, with the team proving that Isle of Skye is the perfect road trip destination. Scroll down for video .

Reflective Loch Earn perfectly captured on the Europcar trip, which combined Danish and Scottish photographers for a promotional campaign . The intrepid road trippers stopped for a picture on their road trip, which was promoted using the hashtag #MovingSkyewards . The campaign team involved five Danes and three Scots who set out in March to capture some of the area's prized landscapes and landmarks. Photographers included Fedja Salihbasic, who boasts 427,000 followers on Instagram and Hanni Gharib who flew over, meet the likes of Steve Oates and James Wright. They had long been admirers of each other's work, so jumped at the chance to join efforts for the mission. Europcar's aim for the mission was to showcase how having access to a vehicle enables you to fully explore some of Scotland’s most picturesque and remote locations. A spokesperson for the programme said: 'At the start of the campaign, we hoped that the images would capture people’s imagination on Instagram and inspire them to explore this part of Scotland for themselves. A key aspect of the campaign was to highlight Skye’s unrivalled scenery, and we could think of no better people to champion the Misty Isle than our group of Danish and Scottish Instagrammers. As there is no railway access to the Isle of Skye the Instagrammers set off by car to the Isle of Skye, approximately a five hour drive from Edinburgh although the reality was much different. Hanni Gharib said: 'Our mutual passion for nature and photography made a five-hour trip into a 12 hour journey. 'Trying to regulate the amount of stops was hopeless given the breathtaking scenery that unfolded itself around every corner. 'And having our own vehicles gave us the freedom to take whatever (time-consuming, but visually rewarding) detours we chose along the way.' The campaign aimed to show that by having your own vehicle you can make the journey in your own time and enjoy easy access to some of the most spectacular areas of natural beauty along the way . The team were given hire vehicles by Europcar for the exploration. As there is no train service to the area visitors are restricted to buses or private vehicle . Hanni Gharib said: 'Our mutual passion for nature and photography made a 5 hour trip into a 12 hour journey' The result of their three-day adventure was an exploration of over 600 miles of Scottish landscape and a collection of stunning photographs using the hashtag #MovingSkyewards. Scottish photographer Steve Oates said: 'Scotland has some of the most spectacular scenery in the world, particularly up in the Isle of Skye. 'The drive north from Edinburgh takes you through some incredible locations, including Glencoe, Fort William and Kyle of Lochalsh with the stunning Eilean Donan castle, giving many opportunities to stop by the side of road for a quick photograph or, if you prefer, a wander up into the hills for an even more impressive view. 'The best part about driving is that you don't need to worry about the weather, which can change pretty suddenly in Scotland, and you can enjoy the way the surroundings change through different conditions as you drive around different locations. 'Driving around Skye is an incredible experience and one that already has us planning to go back again in order to explore some of the locations further.'

It's a brave politician indeed who is willing to expose their own battle with their squeezed middle for the cameras. As the election gets underway the gloves have come off between the main parties, and for three frontbenchers the tops have come off as well. Tory health minister Dan Poulter, Lib Dem minister Tom Brake and Labour frontbencher Gavin Shuker imposed strict cuts on their calories and put themselves at the mercy of a personal trainer for Men's Health magazine. Scroll down for video . Health minister Dan Poulter saw his weight fell from 105kg to 102.5kg, losing two inches off his 35in waist. His body fat fell from 24 per cent to 18 per cent . Cooped up in the Department of Health, he admitted it is difficult to practice what he preaches on keeping healthy . Skipping breakfast, grabbing lunch on the go and late nights in Parliament's bars and restaurants can take its toll on MPs when they arrive in Westminster. After five years of the coalition government, the three MPs agreed to take part in the feature for the Men's Health magazine, which is better known for its front covers of rippling muscles and toned six packs. Each was given strict orders to eat more healthily, do more exercise and take better care of their bodies. There was the inevitable unflattering 'before' photo shoot, followed by a full-length portrait to show off their new physique. Mr Poulter, a GP first elected in 2010, could be expected to already know what it takes to stay healthy. But cooped up in the Department of Health, he admitted it is difficult to practice what he preaches. 'I have an erratic diary, working 15-hour days, so it does require real dedication to get gym sessions in', he said. His personal trainer Stephen White put him on a regime of fat-burning intervals and muscle-building resistance training. He said: 'Dan really struggled at first because of his back – we focused on loosening and developing it to pull his shoulders back and correct his terrible posture.' In the end Mr Poulter's weight fell from 105kg to 102.5kg, losing two inches off his 35in waist. His body fat fell from 24 per cent to 18 per cent, and he boasted of feeling 'fitter, stronger, more awake and motivated in my work'. Lib Dem deputy Commons leader Tom Brake was told to build his upper-body strength and after six weeks of training could swim the 750m of the sprint distance triathlon without reverting to breast stroke . As deputy leader of the Commons, Mr Brake's job involved a lot of sitting on the green leather benches listening to debates. The Lib Dem MP and keen marathon runner could have been forgiven for thinking he was fit. But after casting an eye over his 'before' physique, personal trainer Daniel Marshall declared: 'Tom neglected every muscle from the waist up.' The 52-year-old was told to build his upper-body strength and after six weeks of training could swim the 750m of the sprint distance triathlon without reverting to breast stroke. He lost only a kilo of his 83.5kg starting weight, but his chest size grew from 38in to 48 in, while he lost an inch from his waist. Mr Brake said: 'I used to think going to the gym was a waste of time, and that you were much better off going for a run. Not anymore.' Labour MP Gavin Shuker embarked on an intense weight loss regime, forced to shun carbs and alcohol when being wined and dined in Westminster . Labour MP Gavin Shuker was elected as MP for Luton South in 2010, after incumbent Margaret Moran was forced out over her expenses. A shadow International Development minister, he says that he succumbed to the 'parliamentary stone' - the extra 14 pounds new MPs put on in their first year after arriving in Westminster. In fact he went even further, and put on three stone within 12 months. Men's Health rather unkindly remarked: 'The fact that the shadow minister hadn’t done any exercise since his school days compounded the problem – the only internationally perceptible development being around his waistline. 'The only internationally perceptible development being around his waistline.' He embarked on an intense weight loss regime, forced to shun carbs and alcohol when being wined and dined in Westminster. 'I’m sure at one point an MP’s life was all big boozy lunches and champagne dinner receptions,' he said. 'The reality now is that if you eat lunch at all, it’ll be out of a box at your desk, like most people.' Surprisingly, he was told to eat more, not less, but make it healthy. The 33-year-old had got into the habit of not eating during the day and gorging at night. For the first time in decades he started eating porridge for breakfast. In the end he managed to lose more than 10kg, taking him down to 85kg. His waist slimmed down from 44in to 37in, while his biceps expanded from 32cm to 35cm. The magazine suggested the spectacle of three MPs naked from the waist up could inspire its readers to get fit themselves. It said: 'If they can juggle work and fitness, you sure as hell can too. It may not be easy, but then in this age of austerity, the biggest cuts never are.'

Strict diet and exercise regime saw them shed pounds and gain strength . Full interview appears in the May 2015 issue of Men’s Health, on sale Thursday 2 April. Also available as a digital edition.

(CNN)How can more than 200 Nigerian schoolgirls simply disappear? And how can the Nigerian government and the rest of the world have allowed this to happen? Exactly 365 days have passed since the girls were snatched from their boarding school dormitories in the dead of night in Chibok, northeastern Nigeria. They are still missing. For this we should all feel shame: shame that we live in a world where the lives of young girls can be shattered with impunity by fanatical thugs. Shame that when such horrendous acts occur, our collective attention span is so fleeting. A year ago, I could never have imagined that we would be here today, marking the grim 12-month milestone of these girls going missing. In the early days of their abduction much of the world stood as one, rallying around the hashtag #BringBackOurGirls. On the ground in Nigeria as part of CNN's team covering the story, I was buoyed by this global solidarity. A year on, meet the man still fighting to #BringBackOurGirls . Caught in the blinding glare of global attention, and facing a tide of questions about their bungled response to the kidnappings, the Nigerian government felt the weight of accountability and was spurred to take greater action; offers of assistance from the likes of the US, UK, France, and China were accepted. Promise after promise was made by Nigerian government officials that the girls would come home -- so where are they, and where is the global outrage over these broken promises and broken dreams? My heart goes out to the grief-stricken loved ones of these missing girls on this painful anniversary. Poor and socially marginalized, all many of them have is their hope that their girls will one day return. Girls who escaped risk lives to go to school . The task of keeping that hope alive has largely been taken up by the handful of #BringBackOurGirls campaigners in Nigeria. These men and women have worked tirelessly to keep the story alive for the past year; their struggle has been a painful and increasingly lonely one. But as the world's gaze has shifted they have continued to meet the Nigerian government's silence with cries of: "Bring Back Our Girls, now and alive!" At this point, finding the girls will not be easy. But it can be done. It must be done. Malala offers 'solidarity, love, hope' to abducted schoolgirls . These girls are no different from your daughters, sisters, nieces: each has hopes and dreams of their own. But I also believe there is another reason these girls must be reunited with their families - in the words of Martin Luther King: "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects us all indirectly." Our common humanity compels us to do our part, to right this shameful wrong. How the world has changed since the kidnappings .

Some 276 girls were kidnapped from their school in northeastern Nigeria by Boko Haram a year ago . Despite a global outcry, one year on, only a handful have escaped and returned home . Isha Sesay: We should all feel shame that our collective attention span is so fleeting .

More than 30,000 cases of the country's most popular hummus dip are being recalled after Sabra, the manufacturer, said they could be contaminated with listeria. The company said the total number of containers in the recall comes to 'approximately 30,000.' Only five batches of hummus are being recalled - and only the company's Classic Hummus. 'This measure is limited to five SKUs of Classic Hummus sold nationwide,' Sabra Dipping Co. said in a release. 'To date, no other Sabra product is affected by this recall.' Scroll down to see the batches of hummus being recalled . Listeria concerns have led to thousands of Classic Hummus containers being part of a voluntary recall, Sabra Dipping Co. said Monday . The company said that 'The potential for contamination was discovered when a routine, random sample collected at a retail location on March 30th, 2015 by the Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, tested positive for Listeria monocytogenes.' The positive test happened at a Kroger in Port Huron, Michigan, a MDARD spokeswoman told the Detroit Free Press. The newspaper reported that Michigan officials contacted both the FDA and inspectors located in Virginia. Sabra has a production plant in Virginia's Chesterfield County. Sabra Dipping Co. said that customers will be refunded if they return the products to stores. Both supermarkets and food service accounts had received products, the company said. The company said 'Listeria monocytogenes is an organism, which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. 'Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea, Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.' The company said it has so far not yet received any sickness reports. On its website, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says about 260 people are killed each year by listeriosis, and about 1600 people get sick. Antibiotics are used on those who get listeriosis. Prevention methods include rigorously washing both produce and kitchen equipment; cleaning kitchen and food storage areas; rigorously cooking poultry and meats; storing food as soon as possible; and avoiding both unpasteurized milk and food products that include it as an ingredient, according to the agency.

His penchant for topless scything has proved a hit with housewives around the UK - and sent many rushing to social media to declare their love for actor Aidan Turner, 31. But it seems not everyone is a fan of the gardening techniques featured on Poldark - not least the mowing community who have complained about Turner's 'excessive sweating and grunting' and say it should never be done shirtless. Turner set hearts aflutter when he stripped off to manfully mow a hay field with a scythe, an ancient cutting tool used for centuries prior to horse drawn and modern mowing machinery. Scroll down for video . More like Iggy Pop: Scything expert Chris Riley says his own physique is more like rocker Iggy Pop . But while the sexy scene helped send audience ratings through the roof, it prompted a scathing critique from a band of enthusiasts dedicated to keeping the age-old art alive. They say Turner’s macho grunts and terrible technique as he hacked at the hay tarnished the view of the usually 'sedate' action of scything. Expert scyther Chris Riley, 56, says in real life, Turner would have run out of breath long before completing the filed - and he would have kept his shirt on to protect him from the sun. 'When the Poldark episode in question aired, word got around our network of scythe enthusiasts very quickly that there had been this scene in it where Aidan Turner used a scythe,' he says. 'It was accompanied by a lot of comments saying his technique wasn’t very good. The story of Poldark highlights the romantic aspect of the scythe and its use in history but we weren’t very impressed with Aidan Turner’s scything.. That's how it's done: Mr Riley demonstrates how scything should really be done . Surely not? Mr Riley brushed off comparisons with Poldark and compared himself to Iggy Pop instead . That's more like it: Aidan Turner's shirtless Poldark has been setting hearts aflutter on Sunday nights . 'There was a lot of sweating and grunting going on but the only time you’d mow like that would be in a competition.' Mr Riley, from Gillingham in Dorset, also questioned whether Turner had been shown how to use a scythe properly before the cameras rolled. 'Scything is an efficient and poetic way of cutting rather than the way it was portrayed on Poldark where it was this very aggressive, manly action. 'Using a scythe should be a sedate, pleasurable activity rather than an arduous, backbreaking chore. It can be zen-like if you’ve got a sharp blade and good technique. 'That was how the programme makers wanted to portray it but it was clear to us that there wasn’t much effective work being done. 'The grass and flowers in the meadow weren’t flying everywhere, which you might expect if someone was good with a scythe. 'I would guess that Aiden Turner had not been shown how to use a scythe properly before filming. If an experienced scyther were to put the same amount of energy into it as on Poldark they’d be getting an awful lot done. 'A work rate like that is also not conducive to keeping the action up all day, but that was obviously in conflict with how producers wanted the scene to look.' Mr Riley also raised questions about Turner’s lack of shirt, claiming a real scyther would keep their clothes on to protect them from the elements. Exhausting: Mr Riley says Poldark puts too much effort into his scything and wouldn't finish the job . Smooth move: Fellow expert Simon Fairlie, from Dorset, shows off his skills in a West Country meadow . The 56-year-old, who runs courses in how to wield a scythe, added: 'The fact that he had no top on was not particularly realistic - if you were in the field all day and wanted to protect yourself from the sun you wouldn’t take your shirt off. 'There are times when it is OK to scythe topless, like if you are in competition, but I’m more Iggy Pop than Aiden Turner.' Meanwhile... Female fans take to Twitter to complain about the lack of shirtless mowing in last night's episode of Poldark . Female fans of BBC One's Cornish period drama Poldark are complaining after dashing actor Aidan Turner kept his shirt on in last night's penultimate episode. Many have taken to Twitter to voice their upset after the Irish hunk, who plays Captain Poldark, went a whole episode without revealing his chest. In previous episodes the star has been seen scything topless and skinny dipping in the Cornish sea. Where are the abs? Fans were disappointed by the lack of topless action in last night's Poldark . Recap: Poldark has appeared topless in nearly every episode and is seen here in episode three . Memorable: Episode two featured Aidan Turner taking a naked swim in crystal clear Cornish waters . Last night the BBC continuity announcer said there would be 'distressing scenes' as one of the characters is murdered, but many women joked it was 'distressing' seeing Turner fully clothed. One fan named Stacey tweeted: 'Distressing scenes my arse. Only 'cos he kept his clothes on all night #Poldark.' Verthless added: 'Despite the @BBCOne warning before #Poldark my wife is traumatised by some of the scenes in which Aiden Turner kept his shirt on.' Jacqui Walls posted: 'All bad news on the #Poldark front tonight. @Aidan Turner didn't get his shirt off once.' Others complained about the lack of any obvious carer for Captain Poldark and Demelza's baby Julia because she was absent from most of the scenes. Although Poldark sacks his servants Jud and Prudie, Demelza is later seen visiting Francis and going for cliff top walks without her baby daughter. 'Can someone tell me who looks after #Poldark's baby @BBCOne,' tweeted MursMums. Cross: A viewer complained that the real source of distress was a lack of shirtlessness . Traumatic: Viewers had been hoping that Poldark would take his top off - but had no such luck . Compensation: One concluded that at least Poldark's trademark smoulder had been left in place . Denouement: Next week's finale will reveal whether Ross and Francis manage to patch up their quarrel . Fired: Other viewers questioned who was doing the childcare following Jud and Prudie's sacking . Gallery 45 tweeted: 'It's all very good swooning over Ross, but we have some serious concerns for the welfare of Baby Julia! #homealone.' Others joined a growing chorus of fans who want the series to continue beyond the final episode which airs next Sunday. Fenteroon Hol Cotts tweeted: 'Have a feeling there's be lots of tears shed next Sunday eve, approx 10pm.' Caley added: 'I genuinely don't know what I'm going to do after nxt wk. First #fortitude ends, now #Poldark.' Heidi wrote: 'Can't believe #Poldark is near the end its been the highlight of my weekends!!!!' Jaime Watson posted: 'Can't believe it's the last #Poldark next week. How am I going to survive without seeing @AidanTurner every Sunday?' Another, Hannah, tweeted: 'Last episode of #Poldark next week. Sad times. I like my weekly Aidan Turner fix.' Luckily for fans of the 18th century mining drama and Mr Turner, the BBC announced last week that it has commissioned a second series of Poldark.

Chris Riley, 56, from Dorset, says Turner has the technique all wrong . Mr Riley, who says his look is more Iggy Pop, says being topless is a no-no . Meanwhile fans have complained about lack of shirtless scenes last night . Poldark kept his shirt on for the whole of Sunday night's episode .

Angela spent many years wearing high heel shoes . Four years ago, a shopping trip was torture for Angela Kelly, 67. Though still a super-fit events organiser, the former over-50s All England badminton mixed doubles champion was reduced to hobbling at a snail's pace, hanging onto her trolley for support. It may sound as though Angela was struggling with a debilitating disease or catastrophic accident. In fact, she was suffering from the painful legacy of a lifetime wearing high heels. Her story is a cautionary tale for those of us who blithely slip our feet into shoes several inches high on a daily basis. Most women are well aware that wearing high heels for any length of time can result in sore feet, pinched toes and tight calf muscles. But a worrying new study by researchers in the U.S. suggests high heels can also put dangerous pressure on knee joints, wearing away cartilage - the body's built-in shock absorber - and increasing the risk of osteoarthritis. Some women need invasive knee replacement surgery. In the study carried out by Stanford University's biomotion team, the knees of healthy women were scanned as they walked at normal pace in flat shoes, 1½ in heels and 3½ in heels. They found that in high heels, women's knees are held in such an awkward, bent position that their joints looked and performed like aged or damaged joints - increasing the risk of osteoarthritis. Physiotherapist and osteopath Tim Allardyce isn't surprised: patients with postural problems caused or exacerbated by heels are common at his Croydon clinic. 'Because of the odd angle at which the feet are held in high-heeled shoes, it increases the downward pressure on the knees by 25 per cent, placing significant stress on the kneecaps, even when you're standing still,' he says. At 5ft 3in, Angela had always loved the extra height afforded by her favourite heels. 'I wore vertiginous stilettos and towering platforms every day of my teens and 20s,' she says. 'And after that, a 3 in heel or more, whenever I wanted to look smart.' Even the first twinge of arthritis, which began in her right knee in her early 30s, couldn't persuade her to kick her heel habit - instead, she gritted her teeth and controlled the pain with anti- inflammatories, until it suddenly worsened four years ago. She had almost no cartilage left in her knee and needed to have a titanium knee replacement . 'I was struggling to get out of bed or in and out of the car,' she says. 'I sometimes had to use crutches to get about and would have to lean heavily on a trolley to get around the supermarket. 'All my lovely high-heeled shoes had to be banished and I started living in trainers. 'My husband Rob and my friends were all very sweet, telling me I looked great in my frumpy, flat shoes and encouraging me to get my knee sorted out - but I felt really down about it. 'If I walked any distance or tried to play badminton, my knee would swell horribly and I'd have to apply ice packs to control the pain. 'Tests showed that I had almost no cartilage left in my knee and it became obvious that I needed to have a titanium knee replacement, which involved major surgery and a lengthy recovery period.' Luckily, Angela's knee surgery at the Royal Bolton Hospital in 2011 was a success. After following the advice of her doctor and physiotherapist to swear off heels altogether, to avoid damaging her new, artificial knee, she is fitter than ever. She has lost 1½ st, is playing badminton several times a week and goes to the gym regularly. 'I miss my heels and envy friends who can still wear them,' she says. The average woman spends £136.52 on five new pairs of shoes a year . The knee op wasn't her only surgery. 'I had to have a bunion surgically removed from my left foot last year, too, which was caused - or certainly worsened - by years of wearing tight, pointy stilettos. 'I probably would have paid more attention to the fit of my shoes, rather than how fashionable they looked, if I'd known they would force me to go under the knife twice.' Vanity is the obvious reason why Angela is far from the only woman willing to suffer for fashion - there's no question that legs look longer and more elegant in beautiful heels. In a recent survey of 1,200 women, 93 per cent said they felt sexier and more feminine when they wore heels, 88 per cent said they considered themselves more stylish and 77 per cent said their heels made them feel slimmer. With statistics like those, it's no surprise that many women seem to take a dangerously 'no pain, no gain' approach to their footwear, however dire the warnings. Retired teacher Susan Owens, 61, has also suffered life-changing knee problems from wearing heels since she was a teenager. 'My husband and I go on a lot of cruises, and recently took up ballroom dancing, which call for lots of dressing up and wearing high-heels for hours on end,' she says. But unbearable knee pain that began in 2010, when she was 55, threatened to curtail her leisure activities altogether. Susan Owens has also suffered life-changing knee problems from wearing heels . 'At first, I just put the pain down to ageing and tried to soldier on, but as time went on, over-the-counter painkillers stopped working and the niggling, arthritic pains were keeping me awake at night,' she says. 'Six months after they started, I went to see my doctor and was given steroid injections in my knee. They really helped in the short term, but I still found I couldn't wear heels when we went out or on holiday - it was just too painful. 'I was still teaching young children at the time, but I struggled to kneel down beside them in the classroom. I couldn't drive and as I stopped being so active, I started to pile on weight and suddenly felt old, despondent and frumpy.' Susan had to undergo arthroscopies - keyhole surgery to remove damaged cartilage - on both knees before a right knee replacement by orthopaedic surgeon Shivanand Geeranavar at BMI Edgbaston Hospital improved things. 'Within six weeks of having my knee replaced I was driving again and went on holiday to Italy. 'Within nine weeks, I could ride my bike and go back to ballroom dancing. I still wear heels occasionally - mainly when I'm dancing - but the heels are lower than they used to be.' Of course, arthritis and bunions are not the only problems that can be caused by high heels - squeezing feet into too-tight points can lead to misshapen hammer toes, and regular wearers of 3 in heels may suffer from tendonitis, where the Achilles tendon shrinks and tightens painfully. Tim Allardyce says wearing high heels regularly can also be at the root of a raft of excruciatingly painful back, hip and even neck problems. 'Standing and walking on the balls of your feet throws the skeleton out of its usual, healthy alignment, which means muscles and joints throughout the body have to compensate to maintain its centre of gravity and keep the body upright,' he says. Despite being otherwise fit and healthy, former BBC television sports presenter Sally Jones, 60, blames her fondness for heels for the excruciatingly painful lower back problems that plagued her 40s and 50s. At times, the pain was so bad she was unable to drive and was forced to use a stick. 'High heels have always been considered part of a female TV presenter's uniform,' she says. 'Not that I complained - high shoes have always be my preferred choice of footwear when I've got to look smart. The shame is that I can't really wear them any more.' Though her back problems had been triggered by squash and tennis injuries in her 30s, Sally was advised by an orthopaedic consultant and osteopath that her penchant for heels was exacerbating her problems. 'I was told to stick to flats or shoes with a very low heel and to spend as much time barefoot as possible to help correct my posture, which had been thrown out of alignment by wearing heels day in and day out,' she says. Standing and walking on the balls of your feet throws the skeleton out of its usual, healthy alignment . 'I was also given exercises to follow to strengthen my abdominals and back muscles, and help correct the poor postural habits I had developed, which were putting strain on my lower back. 'For the past 15 years, I've had to stick to flat footwear and keep up the exercises to keep my back pain at bay. 'I still take heels with me to slip on for TV appearances, but the twinges in my back start if I have to stand in them for more than an hour.' For high-heel lovers not yet suffering painful problems, podiatrist Michael Ratcliffe advises picking shoes carefully. 'If you are after height, wear a comfy platform or a shoe with a heavy block heel -which will give you support - rather than a flimsy stiletto with a thin sole,' he says. And Tim Allardyce says: 'Take a break. If you're wearing a pair of heels over 2 in high, limit the time spent wearing them to two hours maximum. 'After two hours, sit down, take the heels off and walk around barefoot if possible for 30 minutes to allow time for your feet and knees to recover.' Interestingly, consultant knee surgeon Marcus Green, at the BMI Priory Hospital in Birmingham, has even more hope for those who can't bear to part with their favourite footwear - he is not convinced the link between high heels and arthritis in the knees has been proved. 'There's no doubt that high heels change the forces on the knee joint, but none of the long-term studies I've seen suggest they go on to cause serious knee problems,' he says. 'Yes, there is a definite link to issues such as Angela's bunions and Sally's postural problems. 'But when it comes to knees, keeping your weight down and exercising regularly to keep the supportive muscles around the knees fit and strong are, in my opinion, by far the most important steps you can take to prevent or slow down arthritis in the knees.'

(CNN)Hillary Clinton is now officially a candidate for president -- and the never ending Clinton story rumbles on. She has been a part of all our lives now for approaching a quarter of a century. She started as the first lady that the right loved to hate, then the deceived wife, next a senator, then a candidate for president in one of the most dynamic primaries in history and finally, a secretary of state. The Republicans have their aristocratic Bushes, the Democrats have their Clintons. And if Hillary or Jeb were to win two presidential terms, then in the 44 years from 1981 to 2025, 28 will have had a Clinton or a Bush in the White House. The great American republic now looks about as democratic as "Game of Thrones." But even though Hillary Clinton has been around nearly my entire lifetime, The Economist may speak for many when it asks: "What does Hillary stand for?" There is a paradox she presents: She is by far the best-known presidential candidate across both parties and, for the moment, almost unchallenged within her own. Yet even though Diane Feinstein can assert confidently that Hillary "doesn't 'need' (the White House). But she wants it" -- the question unanswered is "What for?" And for liberals, who believe that government is there to do something, it's this lack of definition that is surely so disconcerting about Clinton. There are good grounds for a liberal primary challenge to Clinton. The economy has revived under Obama but, say critics, largely to the benefit of Wall Street and the super-rich. The riots in Ferguson, Missouri, were a painful reminder that the poor, particularly the nonwhite poor, have been left behind. Clinton's credentials as a fighter against inequality are mixed. It is true, as the Wall Street Times notes, that she has previously called for "universal prekindergarten, equal pay for women, increases in the minimum wage, paid family leave, higher taxes on the wealthy and an expanded Earned Income Tax Credit for working-poor families." But she counts among her friends precisely those corporate people blamed by the Occupy crowd for the country's inequality. Clinton is now, wisely, trying to distance herself from the Clinton Foundation -- after all, its fundraising efforts among foreign interests are hardly the stuff of populist liberalism. Then there is her foreign policy record. Clinton voted in 2002 to authorize the Iraq War (though in her memoir last year, she backed away from the vote, writing that she "got it wrong.") As secretary of state, she is easily associated in the mind of the left with such controversies as the war in Syria, the crisis in Libya and the collapse of the Mubarak regime in Egypt. That some of these may have had little to do with her is beside the point. Clinton is going to have to spend a sizeable amount of time during the primaries explaining and defending the things that occurred while she was working for the Obama administration. Her personal ethics are on the agenda, too -- as demonstrated by the flap over her use of a private email account. These are the issues that her Democratic rivals are running on. In Iowa last week, both Jim Webb and Martin O'Malley attacked Wall Street, Webb adding that he had also opposed the Iraq War. Both men questioned the wisdom of Clintonian triangulation -- the idea that the White House can be won, and the country successfully governed, by always seeking the middle ground. Both men would be wise to focus on Iowa; to contrast a populist, folksy campaign with the distant, over-managed style of Clinton. And both would do well to tap into a feeling that it would be unhealthy, undemocratic and plain dull to let Hillary coast to the nomination without a proper challenge. Nevertheless, there is a strange contradiction between the constant assertions that Democrats want a race and the polling evidence that Clinton would beat anyone who tried to take her on. Why do liberals demand a conversation about policy if the only answer they can still come up with is Hillary? The explanation is that the Democratic Party is intellectually impoverished. We hear often of the GOP's problems, how out of touch with a changing electorate it is and how it is divided against itself. The Democrats' challenges, however, are just as substantial. They've just been masked by having a charismatic man in the White House dominating the national conversation. Obama was elected at one of the highest points of national Democratic popularity. But, since then, Democratic power has been whittled away in successive congressional and local elections -- leaving the party without significant representation in the Deep South and absent any mildly conservative support at all. Everything was staked on Obamacare, which was ambitious and noble venture but without an obvious second act to follow. Democrats have become about defending the honor and reputation of their president rather than proposing bold new reforms. And the mood of their base can be felt either in the violence in Missouri or the disaffected, hollow laughter of "The Daily Show" audience. Cynicism abounds. Who really imagines that Hillary Clinton is the kind of personality that can spark a renaissance of thinking or a rejuvenation of activism among liberals? To repeat the question: what is she exactly running for? If she has one trump card to play, however, it is reinvention. Recall that she started the 2008 primaries out as a moderate, play-it-safe frontrunner and ended them drinking beer in an Indiana bar -- reinvented, in the words of Barack Obama, as Annie Oakley. If there is little intellectualism left in liberalism, at least Hillary Clinton is clever. Which is why she remains an asset to her party.

Timothy Stanley: Hillary Clinton running for president, but it's not clear what she stands for. There are grounds for a liberal primary challenge . He says Democrats who call for reform offer only Hillary Clinton. She's formidable candidate, but where are bold new ideas?

Paul Casey insists he is desperate to play in the Ryder Cup again, even though he looks unlikely to rejoin the European Tour in time to earn qualifying points this season. Only Tour members can play on the team and Phoenix-based Casey gave up his membership after deciding in January to concentrate on the PGA Tour in order to get back into the world's top 50. The move has paid off with the former world No 3 losing a play-off in the Northern Trust Open and finishing joint third in the Honda Classic to climb to 44th at the start of this week. Paul Casey, practicing ahead of the Masters in Augusta, 'desperately' wants to return to the Ryder Cup . The Englishman has returned to the world's top 50 after leaving the European Tour to concentrate on his game . However, even if he rejoins the European Tour before the May 1 deadline to be eligible to accrue Ryder Cup points when the race starts in August, he will struggle to play the 13 events required for membership. 'It was very straightforward when I was top 10 in the world playing both tours,' Casey told Sportsmail ahead of his first Masters appearance since 2012. 'I know I am back in the top 50 but I have only just got back into the top 50. It was a very difficult decision but it was also the correct decision. 'I still have to play 13 events and right now I am not in the US Open or Open or HBSC Champions at the end of the year. Playing 13 becomes difficult when you haven't played at the start of the year in Middle East.' Casey celebrates while watching a replay of his hole-in-one, which helped Europe to victory in 2006 . Casey last played in the Ryder Cup competition in the 2008 defeat by USA at Valhalla . Casey played in the record Ryder Cup wins in 2004 and 2006 and the 2008 defeat at Valhalla, but was in tears after being overlooked for a wild card by captain Colin Montgomerie in 2010, when he was ranked seventh in the world. 'I desperately want to be part of a Ryder Cup again. There is definitely passion and a fire there burning,' he added. 'Certainly one of them I felt like I was maybe denied, the others I haven't been in a position to make the team and watching Medinah and Gleneagles has been brilliant. 'What they have done has been absolutely phenomenal and I want to be part of that again and not just part of it, but a real solid team player and leader in the team room, which I know I can be. When I play my best golf I think I can certainly play that kind of role.' European captain Darren Clarke said earlier this week he wanted Casey on his team for Hazeltine next year, and the 37-year-old added: 'Paul (McGinley) said the same thing (even though I was a member of the Tour at the time). 'He was desperate for me to be part of that because I had won twice around Gleneagles and unfortunately wasn't playing the golf I needed to.' Ryder Cup captain Darren Clarke (right), speaking with Tiger Woods in Augusta, wants Casey on his team . Casey finished sixth on his Masters debut in 2004 and is relishing being back at Augusta National after failing to qualify in 2013 and 2014. 'When you have been here and gone away for a year or two you certainly appreciate it when you come back,' he added. 'I'm very focused this week but I am enjoying being here and lapping up everything about it. 'I was on the same flight as Padraig Harrington (who was also ineligible last year) on Sunday and when we landed the girls who run the courtesy car service here had all made little signs saying 'Welcome back Padraig'. We touched on that subject and said that we were both going to give it a good go, but enjoy it.'

Jimmy Anderson has been motivated to play 100 Tests for England by the bitter memories of being marginalised in the early stages of his outstanding career. Anderson makes his landmark appearance here in Antigua on Monday needing just four wickets to overtake Sir Ian Botham and become the leading Test wicket-taker in England’s history. And the Lancastrian will do it remembering the times when it seemed he would become no more than a county bowler. Jimmy Anderson takes part in an England practice session on Saturday ahead of his 100th Test on Monday . Anderson and the England players are put through their paces as they sprint up a hill . ‘I’ve never forgotten the sitting on the sidelines for 18 months or two years and not being able to be out there doing what I love,’ said Anderson. ‘Obviously I was playing county cricket, which was great, but the ultimate is playing for England and I want to do that for as long as possible. ‘I got off to a good start to my career but then had a few years out of the England side with dodgy form and injuries. I didn’t know if I’d ever play again. 'Those were the low periods but I had experienced Test cricket and seen how amazing it was and that determination to play again has driven me on. Once I got my chance again — I think it was 2007 or 2008 — I didn’t want to let it go again.’ Anderson celebrates after taking a wicket during the warm-up match against St Kitts & Nevis earlier this week . Anderson says he wants to continue playing Test cricket for as long as possible . Anderson, fit at 32, wants to carry on for as long as possible, including in one-day cricket even though he accepts he could be dropped from the 50-over team as England rebuild after their disastrous World Cup. ‘My body, touch wood, has never been better,’ he said. ‘I have consciously worked on it the last few years. Once you get past 30 things get hard but I feel good and I feel as though I could go on for a few more years.’

Jimmy Anderson will make 100th Test appearance for England on Monday . England play the West Indies in the first of three Test matches . Anderson reveals he has no plans to retire and still feels fit . The 32-year-old admits low periods during his early career spurred him on .

So the farewell tour will fizzle out rather than end with a bang. Steven Gerrard hoped his Liverpool career would end at Wembley but now the curtain will fall in Stoke. The dream was for Gerrard to end his 25-year association with Liverpool by lifting the FA Cup on his 35th birthday before starting his new adventure with LA Galaxy yet now the prospect is nothing like so glamorous. Losing to Aston Villa in Sunday’s semi-final will take time to get over. ‘We didn’t play, we looked very nervous,’ said Gerrard on talkSPORT. ‘We’re a team built on passing and playing it quickly but we were very disappointing in that aspect.

The unemployment rate for college graduates grew by 1.5per cent in 2014, despite President Obama's promise to reverse the trend. The Labor Department reported on Thursday that the number of jobless Americans in their 20s armed with a four-year or advanced degree rose to 12.4per cent last year from 10.9per cent in 2013. Philip Gardner, director of Michigan State University's Collegiate Employment Research Institute, told the Associated Press that engineering and business majors have the most chance on landing a job in today's competitive market. Hire me! The unemployment rate for college graduates grew by 1.5per cent in 2014, despite President Obama's promise to reverse the trend (stock photo) And Holly Proffitt, employer relations coordinator in the career services office at Arkansas State University, confirmed Gardner's observations. 'We can't graduate enough engineers,' she said. Despite the recent news, in a survey of employers last fall by Michigan State University, the employment center found that hiring of graduates will rise 16per cent this year. Indeed, the consulting and accounting firm EY is aggressively recruiting on college campuses this spring. It plans to hire 9,000 graduates from U.S. universities this year, up from 7,500 in 2014. The overall unemployment rate has fallen to 5.5per cent in March from 6.7per cent at the end of 2013. Apparently employers have more openings to fill because Baby Boomers are retiring and more workers are feeling confident enough about the economy to switch jobs. Overall, the United States generated 3.1 million jobs last year, the most since 1999. In particular, employer demand for so-called STEM graduates - in science, technology, engineering and mathematics - was highest. Offering hope to non-STEM students, Gardner said of the future job market: 'There seems to be a lot of room for everybody. . .  Even arts and humanities are making a comeback.'

Tripoli, Libya (CNN)Smugglers lure Arab and African migrants by offering discounts to get onto overcrowded ships if people bring more potential passengers, a CNN investigation has revealed. A smuggler in the Libyan capital of Tripoli laid bare the system for loading boats with poor and desperate refugees, during a conversation that a CNN producer secretly filmed. The conversation, recorded using a mobile phone, exposes the prices and incentives used to gather as many migrants as possible onto ships. An estimated 1,600 migrants have died so far this year on the dangerous Mediterranean crossing, but still more wait to try to reach Europe. CNN's producer was introduced to a Senegalese and Malian smuggler by an intermediary in Tripoli, who mistakenly thought she was a Syrian looking to bring other Syrian refugees with her onto boats to Italy. Why I fled: Migrants share their stories . The smuggler took her to an unfinished building on the outskirts of Tripoli near the city's many ports, where the migrants they have already found are kept until the crossing is ready. The building could only be reached by walking down a trash-littered alleyway, and featured a series of packed rooms, separated by curtains, where dozens sat -- well over the 80 migrants she was promised would be in her boat. The smuggler explained that the "final price" for Syrians -- often thought to be richer than their African migrant counterparts -- was $1,000. He added that for each Syrian she brought with her, the producer would get a $100 discount. So if she brought 10, she could travel free. He explained how the "discount" was "well known," suggesting perhaps it was part of the unwritten rules that govern the trade and why so many migrants come to each boat. Any fears about the crossing were supposed to be allayed by the smuggler insisting the boats they used had new motors, and that the Senegalese pilot would have a satellite telephone and GPS to assist the crossing. He also assured CNN's producer, when asked, that if the people became too many, they would use two boats. Pregnant women among migrants trying to cross .

Settling down to a glass of wine and a naughty snack is the ultimate after work treat for many of us. But which tipple is the best to bring out the flavour in fiery wasabi peas or salty sausage rolls? Wine experts have created a guide to matching wine with snacks that recommends pairing Pinot Grigio with nachos and Shiraz Rose with salt and vinegar crisps. A Riesling is the perfect companion to a sausage roll, Chardonnay goes great with wasabi peas or pittas and hummus, and Merlot is the best glass to compliment a box of chocolates. Tasters at Jacob's Creek sampled different types of wine with 10 of the nation's most popular snacks and light bites. They even found that different wines match different pizza toppings - with Shiraz best for a margherita but a meaty Cabernet Sauvignon with a pepperoni. Meanwhile, Sauvignon Blanc was found to be the perfect pairing for salted popcorn and a Scotch Egg goes down a treat with a drop of Fiano. TV cook and author, Jo Pratt, who took part in the tasting session with Jacob's Creek wine maker Rebekah Richardson, said: 'There are plenty of guidelines out there about the best wines to drink with main meals but there isn't really any inspiration for which wines to enjoy with smaller plates or snacks. 'So it's brilliant to know you can now enjoy a delicious wine that perfectly complements the flavours of whatever you're eating. 'Whether that's a Sunday roast with all the family, or a well-deserved treat just for you, and wasabi peas and Chardonnay was a real eye opener.' In order to decide on the perfect pairings, 11 types of wine were tried with each of the different foods, with Jo and Rebekah smelling and tasting the food and the drink before pairing them up from a total of 110 possible combinations. The next time you order a cheese and tomato pizza, opt for a spicy Shiraz as its spicy fruit flavours can stand up to the strong aromatic herbs, tangy tomato sauce and salty cheese . They found sausage rolls are paired perfectly with the Riesling due to the 'buttery pastry and rich pork balancing the lime and green apple flavours of the wine'. For pizza, the toppings make a difference to the choice of wine, with a Margherita matched with Shiraz, thanks to its 'spicy fruit flavours standing up well' to the herbs, tomato sauce and cheese topping. But if you opt for a pepperoni pizza, you should serve it with a Cabernet Sauvignon thanks to the 'meaty wine going great with the aniseed kick of the pepperoni'. Chardonnay works with wasabi peas due to the 'creaminess of the wine taking the heat out of the horseradish' with toasted pittas and hummus going nicely with the same wine because of the 'peach and melon notes complimenting the nutty flavours of the chickpeas'. For Scotch eggs, a Fiano complimented the flavours well and for salt and vinegar crisps, a Shiraz Rose was found to be the best match. Experts at the Australian winery put together the new wine matching guide after a survey of 2,000 adults revealed 57 per cent are regularly replacing evening weekday meals with snacks, such as pizza, nachos and pittas and dips. And more than half said they would like to know more about the wines that go with the foods they regularly eat. Seventy-one per cent also admitted they felt there is too much snobbery associated with wine selection. Jacob's Creeks' Rebekah Richardson added: 'Whatever the dish you're cooking, wherever you are in the world, it's not hard to find a recommendation for the best wine to pair it with. 'We're passionate about making quality wines that are great for sharing with good friends and family, and we wanted to celebrate those authentic moments when people are together enjoying a glass of wine with a snack as well. 'This guide helps people make the most of that time, with a glass of wine that tastes amazing with their favourite treat. 'Britons told us they wanted to know about the best wines to go with snacks like wasabi peas, popcorn and chocolate as well as old favourites like pizza. 'And, this new take on wine pairings is the perfect solution.' Margherita Pizza . Wine match: Shiraz . Why it works: Spicy fruit flavours with plum and pepper can stand up to the strong aromatic herbs, tangy tomato sauce and salty cheese that makes a perfect Margherita pizza . Pepperoni Pizza . Wine match: Cabernet Sauvignon . Why it works: The cabernet sauvignon, rich in blackcurrent and plum, is a meaty wine great with the aniseed spice kick of the pepperoni. The hint of oak provides a dryness that helps balance out the richness of the cheese and oil from the sausage. Sausage Roll . Wine match: Riesling . Why it works: The butteriness in the pastry and the richness of the pork is great with the slight acid from lime and green apple in the Riseling. Nachos with guacamole, sour cream and salsa . Wine match: Pinot Grigio . Why it works: From the tangy kick from the salsa to the creaminess of sour cream there's a lot going on in a plate of nachos so Pinot Grigio is a subtle wine which can get along with a mix of flavours. Toasted pitta and hummus . Wine match: Chardonnay . Why it works: Fruit flavours of peach and melon, coupled with a subtle touch of oak flavours complements the nutty nature of the chickpeas. Sea salt and balsamic vinegar crisps . Wine match: Shiraz Rose . Why it works: The fresh raspberry and cherry flavours and the hints of spice in the wine work well with the sharpness of the vinegar . Wasabi peas . Wine match: Chardonnay . Why it works: The creaminess of the wine takes the heat out of the horseradish in the peas. Chocolate . Wine match: Merlot . Why it works: The softness of the tannins and slight sweet fruit in the back matches really nicely with rich chocolate . Salted Popcorn . Wine match: Sauvignon Blanc . Why it works: The slightly herbaceous, grassy flavours of the sauv blanc match the salty flavours of the pork scratchings . Gourmet Scotch egg . Wine match: Fiano . Why it works: The fresh flavours of lemongrass and apricot balance well with the hearty and meaty texture of the Scotch egg .

Buttery flavours of sausage roll are balanced by zesty apple of Riesling . Pair margherita with Shiraz and pepperoni pizza with Cabernet Sauvignon . Pair your Scotch egg with Fiano and chocolate with a glass of Merlot .

Discussing how different women's bodies react during pregnancy, Dr Venkat, Director at Harley Street Fertility Clinic, said: 'If a woman is healthy - physically and mentally - to start with and if she looks after herself well then she will look radiant. 'The hormones are elevated during pregnancy and women react differently to the hormones. Some women are particularly sensitive to elevated hormones and suffer with symptoms, whereas others sail through without any symptoms.' Dr Venkat added that a woman's height plays a role and the taller a woman is can help her carry herself with better posture than a shorter woman.

Virgil van Dijk believed he had sampled the worst refereeing decision of his career the night he landed an early red card against Inter Milan. Events at Hampden on Sunday forced him to revise his opinion. In the aftermath of a contentious Scottish Cup semi-final defeat to Inverness Caledonian Thistle, the Dutchman found sleep elusive. The claims of referee Steven McLean and his five assistants that they failed to see the handball by Inverness player Josh Meekings which denied Celtic a penalty, a red card, possibly even a crack at the Treble, struck many at Parkhead as dubious. So dubious they fired off a letter seeking clarification from the SFA. Celtic centre back Virgil van Dijk leaves field following his side's 3-2 to Inverness in the Scottish Cup semi-final . For van Dijk, the collective burst of myopia was remarkable. A greater lapse on a wider scale than the red card he received from Slovakian official Ivan Kruzliak in the last 32 of the Champions League in February; a decision he described at the time as the worst he had experienced. Resting his arms on a table in a Glasgow hotel after being shortlisted for the PFA Scotland player of the year award, the Dutchman said of the Meekings flashpoint: 'Yeah I saw it. I think everybody in the stadium saw everything. It' s very strange that the right decision wasn't made. 'I was maybe near the halfway line. Even in the stands you could see it. It was a miracle that we didn't get the right decision. Van Dijk netted a superb free-kick against Caley Thistle but it wasn't enough to secure victory . 'This decision was terrible. I don't know – I've experienced some decisions lately. The Inter Milan game, of course, was terrible for my feelings. 'The decision on Sunday wasn't right and everyone can see it. It's terrible when you think about it . 'It was harder on my feelings (than Milan). I put the ref in a position in Milan to give me a red card (following his challenges on Rodrigo Palacio and Mauro Icardi) and that's what I have to learn from. 'Sunday's was a clear decision and it wasn't made - and that's a worse feeling.' Wednesday's 2-1 Premiership win over Dundee helped. It carried Celtic another step closer to the title and was recuperative. The presence of two Parkhead players – van Dijk and Stefan Johansen – on the PFA Scotland shortlist suggests the season may yet redeem itself. Josh Meekings handled Leigh Griffiths goal-bound header but none of the officials saw it . Van Dijk is clear that punishing the Inverness player would have been futile and pointless. The blame for what happened lies, he believes, with the officials who created the mess and then closed ranks to insist they simply hadn't seen it. Former Celtic striker Chris Sutton has called on the officials to be held to account. But when SFA the freeze out their officials, it's done behind closed doors, quietly and without ceremony. 'I don't know,' said van Dijk, 'I don't think I can give my opinion on that. I want to move forward as well. We're not in the final. I want to win the league as soon as possible so we need to win on Sunday and move forward. My feeling is you shouldn't be punished for someone else's mistake.' Ronny Deila described the circumstances of the defeat to Inverness as the worst of his career. The Celtic manager returned home to stare at the walls while, for van Dijk, counting sheep proved an inadequate antidote to insomnia. 'Everybody was very down, especially after the game. For myself personally I was devastated, especially during the night, I couldn't sleep that well. 'That was the biggest chance to get the Treble and everyone at Celtic, and I think around Celtic as well, had the feeling that it was going to happen. 'If the right decision had been made in the game on Sunday we would have been in the final and we would hopefully have won the final. 'The Treble was very close. But it's not going to be turned around any more.' There are five games left now to change perceptions of the season. Celtic expect to win the league. With five games left and an eight-point lead over Aberdeen, they are almost there. Thereafter what transpires between Falkirk and Inverness in the Hampden final on May 30 is a source of utter indifference for the likes of van Dijk. 'I go on holiday so I don't think i will see it,' he said. 'After this season I don't want to watch any football. I've been the whole year watching and playing football and I have to be mentally rested for next season. I don't think I will watch it.' From the comfort of a Dubai lounger, he may give a little more time to his own future. Nominated for a second successive season by PFA Scotland, there are times when the Scottish game looks a little too easy for the 23-year-old defender. For the sake of his own development, there is the expectation he will leave Celtic this summer. Ronny Deila was angry at the referee's decision to now send off Meekings and award his side a penalty . Parrying questions on the matter, he insisted: 'My thoughts are that I want to win the league as soon as possible. 'We'll see what happens in the summer but for now I'm a Celtic player and we'll see if that is or isn't the case after the summer. 'It's an amazing club and you don't want to leave a club like this for one that is not as big. 'You need to know what you want – you don't need to lie. You have to be straight. I will be straight with everyone. 'I'm focusing on the present. You never know what will happen but for now I'm enjoying being a Celtic player.' His dilemma is clear. Celtic are a large club in a small league. Asked if a smaller club in a large league like England would be worth leaving for, he said: 'It depends on the club. If Celtic was playing in the Premier league then they would be one of the best clubs in the world and to stay here would be much more interesting than anything else. 'It is what it is right now. I just want to win the league as soon as possible and hopefully get a nice game maybe before we have to go to Aberdeen. Or maybe Aberdeen away will be a nice place to win the championship…'

A group of Nevada sex workers have come out in favor of Democratic contender Hillary Clinton for president. The group, calling themselves Hookers For Hillary, all work at Dennis Hof's infamous Moonlite Bunny Ranch in Carson City. The legal brothel, which was the subject of HBO's Cathouse series, has drafted a four-point platform explaining their endorsement. Scroll down for video . A group of Nevada sex workers, Hookers For Hillary, have come out in favor of the Democratic contender for president . According to their website, they’re supporting the former secretary of state because of her work on health care reform, foreign relation experience, tax reform and responsible government oversight on public health issues. 'Hillary Clinton, as part of her husband's administration, envisioned health care reform in the 1990's, long before President Obama was able to sign it into law,' they write. 'The Affordable Health Care Act made health insurance available for the first time ever to the 500 independent contractors employed by Dennis Hof. With any Republican nominee likely to work for its' repeal, the Bunnies want to protect the quality health coverage that they now enjoy.' 'As Secretary Of State, Hillary Clinton gained invaluable experience negotiating with foreign leaders, and the Bunnies can definitely relate to negotiating through a language barrier,' they state. The group cite Clinton's work on health care reform, foreign experience, tax reform and responsible government oversight on public health issues as reasons to vote for her . The hookers all work at Dennis Hof's Moonlite Bunny Ranch, a legal brothel in Carson City . 'The Bunny Ranch entertains customers from all around the globe, and the girls have great respect for any woman who can take powerful men from oppressive cultures and make them bend to her will.' 'Bill Clinton presided over the most prosperous time in Bunny Ranch history, which coincided with a tax increase on the wealthiest Americans such as brothel owner Dennis Hof,' the Bunny Ranch writes. 'The Bunnies recognize that thriving economies are built from the bottom up, where the vast majority of their clients originate. 'A return to relying on the disproven theory of trickle-down economics would only serve to exclude the vast majority of hard-working Bunny Ranch clients from having the discretionary income to enjoy with their favorite Bunny.' Citing Nevada's mandatory testing of legal prostitutes for sexually transmitted diseases, the Bunny Ranch also applauded Mrs. Clinton for recognizing 'the fact that responsible government oversight is a key to protecting the public's health from widespread disease.'

Saracens chairman Nigel Wray has dismissed rugby’s salary caps rules as ‘a farce’ in financial documents seen by The Mail on Sunday that show his club’s wage bill soared by another £1million last season alone — even as they remain the subject of a salary cap investigation. A fortnight after the shock departure of chief executive Edward Griffiths and three months since the revelation that the north London club are being investigated by Premier Rugby for alleged salary cap breaches, The Mail on Sunday can reveal Saracens’ mounting debt has topped £40m — the most in rugby history. The rising costs facing the club are also a concern, with the wage bill leaping more than 50 per cent in three years. Saracens now owe £41.6m, according to new filings at Companies House, much of it funded by an unsecured loan from long-standing benefactor Wray and a consortium of South African business associates. Saracens chairman Nigel Wray has dismissed rugby’s salary caps rules as ‘a farce’ The employee wage bill ballooned to £9.1m last year and, with Wray admitting further losses lie ahead, there are growing concerns about the club’s financial health. A move by Saracens last December to scrap the salary cap — which is currently £5m but was £4.5m in the period covered by the new figures — drew no public support from other Premiership clubs. With discussions ongoing over the viability of ring-fencing the top flight, or at least restricting promotion and relegation, Wray has restated that the salary cap must be scrapped. ‘We need to change the farce whereby we are all operating under different rules,’ wrote Wray in a chairman’s statement in the club’s annual accounts seen by The Mail on Sunday. ‘We have one wage cap, the Irish provinces have no wage cap, the French clubs a wage cap twice ours, all of which makes no sense whatsoever. It needs to be changed. ‘In financial terms, it was another difficult year [2013-14]. Having been involved in professional rugby now for 20 years, I’m constantly amazed how hard it is to break into people’s culture. Documents show his club’s wage bill soared by another £1million last season alone despite investigation . ‘The big cities have that soccer culture but built over 100 years. Allianz Park [the purchase of] is a vast step forward and gives us a permanent home but we still have much to do. We could, of course, cut costs very considerably — for example a top French club has a medical staff of three, far smaller than ours. But we really don’t see how you can aspire to be one of the best club sides in Europe if you don’t have a fantastic support system for the players.’ The club have lost on average just over £5m per year over the past four years, more than doubling its debt burden in that period. Annual accounts for 2013-14 show the club’s parent company carry no legal obligation to service the debt, meaning they could technically walk away at any time and leave the club insolvent. Of most interest to their Premiership rivals will be the dramatic hike in salaries paid to employees, which rose from just over £8.1m to more than £9.1m last year . The Mail on Sunday can reveal Saracens’ mounting debt has topped £40m — the most in rugby history . The club took on 24 new staff in that time, nine of them players and coaches, but with the salary cap set at just £4.5m last season — not allowing for one ‘marquee player’ who theoretically could earn an unlimited salary but in reality will not get more than £500,000 — questions persist over the club’s salary structure. Even allowing for the unlikely scenario of a £1m budget for coaching staff, that would leave more than £3m in staff costs for 54 administrative staff — an average salary of more than £55,000. A Premier Rugby spokesman said: ‘Saracens have recently moved into a new purpose-built stadium, Allianz Park — which is a huge asset to the local community — with a number of new staff added. ‘The club are in an investment phase and, given the strength of the shareholding base, this is something they can manage.’

Tesco is close to ditching the last of the private jets used by its top executives after an accounting scandal that sparked the biggest crisis in its 95-year history. Britain’s biggest grocer operated a multimillion-pound fleet of five aircraft for its bosses, but after a disastrous year new chief executive Dave Lewis admitted the planes gave the wrong image and put them up for sale. Four have been sold and the final one, a Hawker 800, will be gone by the end of next month. A similar plane can cost up to £67,000 to charter. Tesco's old Gulfstream 550, worth around £30 million,  that was capable of flying 14 executives at a time . Just days ago, Tesco managed to sell its seven-year-old, Gulfstream 550, worth around £30million new. It was capable of flying 14 executives at a time. With a top speed of 580mph, powered by two Rolls-Royce engines, it was the height of luxury, kitted out with DVD players, widescreen TVs and a bar . It even had cabins allowing executives to sleep in full-sized beds on longer journeys to America and Asia. Mr Lewis hopes the sale of the fleet will draw a line under a difficult year in which Tesco lurched from crisis to crisis, including a fraud investigation into after a £263million black hole emerged in its accounts. The supermarket haemorrhaged senior staff losing its chairman, chief executive and finance director while being hit hard by competition from German discounters Aldi and Lidl, who have stolen customers. In September Lewis was parachuted in from consumer goods giant Unilever. However less than four weeks after informing the City he no longer wanted to maintain the fleet, Lewis could not resist hopping onto a private jet to visit seven locations in Asia in four days. A spokesman said: ‘In October we said we would dispose of the five aircraft we operated. The last aircraft will be handed back by the end of May at the latest. Tesco spent nearly £29 million flying executives to different parts of the world between 2005 and 2012 . ‘The aircraft have not been used by Tesco since December. In future we will use chartered aircraft only if there is a compelling business justification and travel cannot be completed by scheduled airline.’ Between 2005 and 2012 the firm has spent nearly £29 million flying executives to different parts of the world. Previous chief executive Sir Terry Leahy has been reported as saying he preferred flights with EasyJet than flying on private jets but still managed to spend £2.3 million on the planes in 2009. The bill increased dramatically under the management of former boss Phil Clarke. In February 2011 under the tenure of Clarke it had jumped to £8.9 million. A brand new Gulfstream was delivered and sold almost immediately in November along with a Cessna Citation and another Hawker.

(CNN)ESPN suspended reporter Britt McHenry for a week after a video of her berating a towing company employee surfaced Thursday. The sports network announced her suspension on Twitter. McHenry posted an apology on Twitter, saying she allowed her emotions to get away from her during a stressful situation at a Virginia business. "I ... said some insulting and regrettable things." "As frustrated as I was, I should always choose to be respectful and take the high road. I am so sorry for my actions and will learn from this mistake," she wrote. On the roughly one-minute long video that was captured by a surveillance camera, McHenry says to an employee at a register: "I'm in the news, sweetheart. I will (expletive) sue this place." The employee tells McHenry she's being recorded, but it doesn't stop her from continuing her rant. "That's why I have a degree and you don't," she says. "I wouldn't work at a scumbag place like this. Makes my skin crawl even being here." Later McHenry says, "maybe if I was missing some teeth they would hire me, huh?" The employee apparently says something about McHenry's hair and the color of her roots. McHenry sasses back, saying, "Oh, like yours, 'cause they look so stunning, 'cause I'm on television and you're in a (expletive) trailer, honey. Lose some weight, baby girl."

A former TV pitchman in Utah known for his over-the-top personality pleaded guilty to harassing a barn owl in flight while on a motorized paraglider. Dell 'Super Dell' Schanze, 45, was sentenced to one year of probation on Friday after pleading guilty to two misdemeanor counts, knowingly using an aircraft to harass wildlife and pursuing a migratory bird, according to the Salt Lake Tribune. His admission of guilt follows a plea deal that fell through on Thursday after he refused to admit to the 2011 crime which he said makes him look like an evil, horrible person. However, he returned to a federal court on Friday to plead guilty. Schanze was scheduled to go to trial on April 20 and would have faced a maximum of one year in federal prison and more than $100,000 in fines if convicted. Dell 'Super Dell' Schanze arrives for a court appearance at the federal courthouse on Thursday, April 9, 2015 in Salt Lake City where a plea deal fell through because he refused to admit to the 2011 crime. On Friday, he returned to the court to plead guilty . On Friday, Schanze pleaded guilty to two misdemeanor counts, knowingly using an aircraft to harass wildlife and pursuing a migratory bird . 'There was no plea agreement, and federal prosecutors made no concessions to Schanze as a part of his guilty plea to both counts,' according to a statement from the U.S. Attorney's Office, KSL reported. The charges, filed in October 2014, came after a federal investigation into a video that surfaced online in 2013. It appeared to show a paraglider near Utah Lake kicking a soaring owl and boasting about it. In a statement released from the attorney's it said Schanze will forfeit an orange parasail as a substitute asset for the paraglider involved in the illegal conduct. 'Judge Benson also ordered him not to land a paraglider in a federally designated Wilderness Area or in any area closed to motorized access by a federal agency,' the statement said. On Thursday, Schanze who is known in Utah for his shrill, hyperactive TV commercials for his Totally Awesome Computers retail chain, yet again turned a court hearing into a spectacle. It started when he arrived about five minutes late and entered court wearing dark sunglasses, a tight-fitting black turtleneck, tennis shoes and a fanny pack. When U.S. District Judge Dee Benson began reading through the plea deal, Schanze answered 'yes sir' to the first few questions but then balked after Benson asked him if it was true that he knowingly harassed the owl in 2011. Schanze was sentenced to one year of probation and has to forfeit an orange parasail as a substitute asset for the paraglider involved in the illegal conduct (above Schanze pictured in May 2006) Schanze responded 'No sir.' 'I'm going to go out on a limb here, what part isn't true?' Benson said. 'Pretty much all of it, but I'm willing to plea to it if we can finish this today,' Schanze said. The judge explained to Schanze that he could not accept a plea deal without an admission to the facts. His attorney, Kent Hart, spoke with him several times and the judge at one point brought both attorneys to the bench. 'Do you not see the conundrum?' Schanze told the judge. 'I'm not an evil, horrible guy and I'm not going to lie.' Schanze never budged refusing to accept the facts, and Benson ended the hearing and ordered the case to trial beginning on April 20 before he pleaded guilty on Friday. Thursday was also not the first time Schanze has made a sideshow out of a court hearing. At his initial appearance in December, he was handcuffed and briefly held in contempt after being disruptive and combative with a federal judge. During that hearing, he was placed in handcuffs in a Salt Lake City courtroom after he stood up and interrupted a judge at another man's hearing. U.S. Chief Magistrate Judge Brooke Wells had told that man he would have to surrender any weapons as part of his release. Speaking loudly from the front row, Schanze declared it was unconstitutional to take the man's guns. Wells ordered U.S. marshals to handcuff Schanze and escort him out. Charges against Schanze came in 2014 after a federal investigation into a video that surfaced online in 2013 and appeared to show a paraglider near Utah Lake kicking a soaring owl and boasting about it . Schanze is known in Utah for his shrill, hyperactive TV commercials for his Totally Awesome Computers retail chain . In 2006, Schanze shut down his Totally Awesome Computers stores amid sinking sales and legal troubles. He has since run for political office, including a Libertarian bid for governor. Schanze's paragliding has run afoul of the law before. In 2006, he was charged with disorderly conduct after flying low near Interstate 15 at rush hour. He kissed the feet of a fan who paid his $300 fine in the case. Five years later, Schanze was arrested in Oregon after allegedly jumping off the 125-foot-tall Astoria Column. He said outside the jail the government was stifling his creativity. His other legal troubles include a 2005 conviction for lying to officers after prosecutors said he brandished a gun at Draper residents angry that he'd sped through their neighborhood. Four years later, Schanze was sentenced to ten days in jail after police stopped him for weaving in and out of traffic. Prosecutors say his children weren't wearing seatbelts, and Schanze was carrying a loaded gun in his fanny pack without a permit.

United Arab Emirates are planning an audacious bid to host the 2021 Rugby League World Cup. While the sport is in its infancy in the Middle East, the country's government is keen to boost the nation's international profile, according to Sol Mokdad, the president of UAERL who believes it has the facilities, as well as the financial backing and infrastructure, to host the World Cup. 'This is an ideal location for a World Cup,' Mokdad told The National, one of UAE's main newspapers. Australia celebrate winning the 2013 Rugby League World Cup held in Great Britain . Shaun Johnson scores a try for New Zealand against England in the semi-finals . 'It is exactly between Australia and the UK, there is always talk in the media about the big events being hosted in Dubai. 'With Expo 2020 being here, with all the infrastructure being created, it will be the perfect time. 'It would also be the UAE's 50th birthday, so it all aligns - it will just come down to us getting partners who can help us get that bid together.' The World Cup has only ever been hosted by the major countries - Australia, New Zealand, France and Great Britain - although South Africa submitted an application for the 2017 event which was awarded jointly to Australia and New Zealand. Sam Burgess (centre) leads his defeated team off the pitch at Wembley in 2013 . The hosts for the 16th Rugby League World Cup are expected to be named in October 2016.

Police have discovered a body they believe to be a young Indiana woman who was reported missing with her newborn daughter weeks ago in a city 180 miles away from their home. Samantha Fleming and her newborn daughter Serenity were last seen in Anderson on April 5, when they left with a woman who said she was from Indiana's Department of Child Services, according to police. The three-week-old infant was discovered unharmed at a home in Gary on Friday and will be returned to relatives. Police have discovered a body they believe to be Indiana woman Samantha Fleming (left), who was reported missing with her newborn daughter Serenity (right) weeks ago in a city 180 miles away . In the same home, police found a body doused with bleach, wrapped in plastic and stuffed in a plastic storage bin, according to Lt. Thomas Pawlak. Police were led to Gary after Fleming's cell phone signal was picked up in the city, where the young mother's wallet was also found. Fleming was reported missing by her boyfriend. According to police, Fleming left the home they shared with her daughter Serenity after the woman who claimed to be from Child Protective Services told the new mother she had to appear at a hearing. Police said the woman told Fleming the hearing was at Lake Superior Court in Hammond, which is 13 miles from the home where the body was discovered. The infant was handed over to police by a woman who is believed to be the alleged kidnapper's sister, according to the Chicago Tribune. Police have not released the name of the woman. Pawlak said the woman had arrived at the house of the alleged kidnapper, who was not there, to pick up items for the baby. The house had a nursery. 'It appears that she had been planning this,' Pawlak said. 'There was everything you would buy for a new baby. A crib, changing table, diaper bag, carrier, new clothes.' According to police, the alleged kidnapper had asked her sister to care for the baby she was passing off as her own. That is the same story one neighbor of the woman said she was also told. The body was found on Friday in the 1900 block of Cleveland Street in Gary, Indiana. Police found a nursery inside the home and a neighbor said the owner of the house had said she was pregnant with twins . The neighbor told Chicago Tribune she was friends with the alleged kidnapper, who had told her she was pregnant with twins. The 36-year-old woman then told her neighbor around Easter that one of the twins had died after she had given birth, and that the other child was in the hospital with jaundice. When the neighbor eventually saw the woman with the child, she said she found the baby to be 'lighter-skinned' than she expected. The woman also had a bandage on her hand. The alleged kidnapper asked her neighbor to watch her house because she was going out of town. Just days before the woman left, the neighbor said she saw her going back and forth from her house to garage and carrying small plastic grocery bags. The neighbor said she and her friend had been texting regularly since the woman left. But when she texted the alleged kidnapper after she saw police enter her home on Friday, the messages stopped. The alleged kidnapper was located at a hospital in Texas. Police said she is a person of interest but has not yet been arrested. Pawlak believes the alleged kidnapper was very familiar with Fleming. 'She knew a lot about this mother,' he said. 'Enough to convince her she was with CPS.'

(CNN)It wasn't until her 20s that Fethiye Cetin discovered her Armenian ancestry. Her grandmother, 90 years old at the time, told Cetin that her real name was Heranus. Like many other survivors of 1915, Heranus assimilated and kept her identity hidden. Many feared a repeat of the horrors they witnessed and barely escaped. In a crowded reception before a memorial concert in Istanbul this week, people rushed to greet Fethiye Cetin. A strong, soft-spoken woman now in her 60s, Cetin is a prominent lawyer who represented Armenian-Turkish journalist Hrant Dink. Dink was a strong proponent of reconciliation between Turks and Armenians who was tried for "insulting Turkishness." He was assassinated in 2007. The shocking discovery of her true heritage would change Cetin's life. She tells Heranus' story in an evocative memoir titled "My Grandmother." Heranus and her family were among a massive stream of women and children being forcibly marched by Ottoman soldiers, not knowing where they were going or why they were torn away from their male relatives. Echoing throughout the procession were morbid whispers that the men and teenage boys had all been killed. Heranus was 9 at the time. An officer spotted her and her brother and wanted to take them away. Her mother protested but she was told by others, "The children are dying one by one. No one will make it out alive from this march. If you give them, their lives will be saved." Heranus and her brother were scooped up onto the officer's horse and taken to a garden packed with other children and fed the first warm meal they had had in days. But soon reality set in and Heranus began to cry and beg to see her mother. Heranus was separated from her brother, adopted by the officer and his wife, who could not have children of their own. Her name was changed to Seher and she was raised Muslim. And so she survived, had children and grandchildren. Cetin was in law school when her grandmother revealed her secret and painful memories of her Armenian roots. It shattered all that she knew to be real. The 1915 forced deportations and massacres were not taught in Turkey's schools. "There was a huge silence" Cetin said. "It was not just the victims that were silent; it was all of society." Cetin felt rebellion welling up inside her. "I wanted to go on the streets and scream that they are lying to us," she remembers, "a cruelty like this happened, and I wanted to shout it out loud." Armenia and the Armenian diaspora have been doing exactly that and demanding that the "Great Catastrophe" be recognized as genocide by Turkey and the world. Armenian President Serzh Sargysan said earlier this year that "impunity paved a path to Holocaust and genocides in Rwanda, Cambodia and Darfur." The survivors of 1915 and witnesses remember massacres, bloodied rivers, concentration camps, rape and death marches into the Syrian desert. The Republic of Turkey has always rejected the term "genocide." Rather, the Ottoman Empire's Committee of Union and Progress believed Armenian nationalists to be collaborating with the Russian army, which was at war with the Ottoman Empire. To prevent this alliance and stop violence against civilians, the committee undertook a policy of "relocation" to move Armenian populations residing in or near the war zone to southern provinces. Turkey argues that wartime conditions, famine and internal conflicts led to the death of millions of Ottomans, including Armenian subjects. But it's only in the last decade that public dialogue in Turkey began. "We just started breaking the silence recently", Cetin said. "People were quiet for 90 years in this country." Turkish leaders have recently taken a more reconciliatory tone. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan offered Turkey's condolences last year to the descendants of the Armenians who lost their lives. He called for the establishment of a joint historical commission in order to study the "events" of 1915. But Pope Francis' use of the word "genocide" and the European Parliament's resolution last week angered Turkish leaders. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs called the resolution "selective and one-sided," claiming it repeated "anti-Turkish clichés." Erdogan deemed it a "hostile campaign against Turkey." This week, Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu repeated the call for a historical inquiry and the need for an approach based on "just memory" for a "common peaceful future." He asked that third parties, such as Pope Francis, refrain from "aggravating age-old wounds." A century on, Cetin says the dynamism surrounding the 100th anniversary excites her, bringing together artists, musicians, scholars and intellectuals as well as Turkey's citizens of all ethnicities and Armenians from across the world. If the government were to acknowledge 1915 as a genocide, it would speed up the reconciliation and healing process, she says. "But if it does not face genocide, then it does not matter. Society coming face to face with it is more important." Still Cetin remains hopeful that Turkey will accept its moral obligation towards history and its people. As an Armenian Turk, Cetin has helped others retrace their roots and look for long lost answers. But for many, the emotional journey remains unfulfilled as long as Turkey denies the cause of their pain.

Fethiye Cetin learned of her Armenian heritage from her grandmother . The grandmother survived the 1915 killings, assimilated, then kept her real identity hidden . Cetin, others want Turkey to recognize the killings as a genocide; the government has refused . In the last decade a more public dialogue on the subject has begun in Turkey .

Letizia, along with her husband King Felipe met with the relatives of some of the Spaniards who died in the crash in the French Alps last month. The flight, which was en-route from Barcelona to Dusseldorf, had 144 passengers and six crew members on board, including 50 Spaniards. Scroll down for video . Spain's Queen Letizia comforts one of the relatives of one of the victims of the Germanwings plane crash, which saw 150 people killed .

Today at Barcelona's landmark Sagrada Familia basilica, Letizia shook hands and even embraced the families of some of those who died. She also met with students who had hosted 16 pupils from Germany, who had been visiting Spain and were travelling back to Dusseldorf on board the ill-fated flight. Dressed in black and looking sombre, Letizia and King Felipe also prayed for the victims during the service, which began with a recitation of 'Let the Earth Praise the Lord' in several languages. The memorial service, which took the form of a Catholic mass, was led by Lluís Martínez Sistach, the current Archbishop of Catalonia. Both Queen Letizia and King Felipe looked sombre as they entered Barcelona's landmark Sagrada Familia basilica and greeted the Archbishop of Barcelona Lluis Martinez Sistach, right . Also joining the royal couple were the Catalonia regional president Artur Mas and his wife Elena and Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy . However, at the request of some of the families, other Christian, Jewish and Muslim religious leaders were present for the service in the enormous church designed by Antoni Gaudi. Also joining them was the Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy, while 1,000 people gathered outside the World Heritage site to listen to the memorial service. Germanwings Flight 9525 crashed into the French Alps on March 26, when co-pilot Andreas Lubitz locked the captain out of the aircraft's cockpit. He then put the flight on a descent path, that sent it smashing into a mountain.

The five-year-old namesake grandson of famed college basketball coach Jerry Tarkanian has suffered a stroke, his family said. His parents said young Jerry complained of pain in his legs and was taken to University Medical Center of Southern Nevada in Las Vegas at 4am on Friday. Danny and Amy Tarkanian said he's undergoing testing and is showing signs of improvement.

The family said the boy has never had health issues and is conscious and moving around better since the stroke. Danny Tarkanian said that the stroke was in the back of young Jerry's brain, where strokes apparently do less damage, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal. Amy Tarkanian announced her son's stroke on Twitter. 'Our son Jerry had a stroke...he's 5 and I'm just dying inside,' she wrote.

Bali Nine ringleaders Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran could face a firing squad within days after Indonesian officials sent letters ordering that preparations be made for their executions. Indonesia's head of General Crimes sent the letters to the prosecutors of 10 death row prisoners including Australians Chan and Sukumaran on Thursday. The Indonesian Attorney-General's spokesman, Tony Spontana, said the only thing left after this is to announce the execution date. The Australian Embassy has been summoned to Nusakambangan Island - where the executions will be carried out - on Saturday. Authorities in Indonesia give death row prisoners and their families 72 hours notice before they are executed, suggesting Chan and Sukumaran could face the firing squad as early as Monday or Tuesday. Scroll down for video . The execution of Bali Nine ringleaders Myuran Sukumaran and Andrew Chan got a step closer on Thursday . Time seems to be running out for Sukumaran who claims to be rehabilitated since he went to jail in 2005 . Meanwhile the lawyer for a Nigerian man scheduled for execution with Chan and Sukumaran says the embassy has been summoned to Central Java, a likely sign the date is imminent. Utomo Karim, lawyer for Raheem Salami, said on Thursday afternoon the Nigerian embassy received a letter asking it to go to Cilacap, the port closest to Nusakambangan, on Saturday. 'Based on experience from the previous execution, they're going to tell them the date for the execution,' he said. Indonesia is required to give 72 hours notice of the executions. Chan and Sukumaran are in the same cell block as Salami on Nusakambangan . Chan was arrested on April 17, 2005 in Bali for planning to smuggle 8.3kg of heroin valued at about A$4 million from Indonesia to Australia . Letters were sent by authorities to the prosecutors of all 10 death row prisoners, which includes Sukumaran, ordering them to prepare the executions . Earlier in the week Indonesian President Joko Widodo confirmed the executions were 'only a matter of time'. President Widodo told the Indonesian news agency Antara that while he would not interfere with the inmates' outstanding legal appeals, the executions would take place upon their conclusion. 'When it will be done is no longer a question,' he said.  'It is only awaiting the conclusion of all procedures and the legal process, which I will not interfere in. It is only a matter of time.' News of the letters were a huge setback for Chan and his family members . Sukumaran along with the other nine death row prisoners will be killed by firing squad . News.com reports the Attorney-General’s spokesman also indicated that of the 10 death row prisoners only one legal matter was now outstanding. The one remaining is of an Indonesian man whose judicial review is still before the Supreme Court but is expected to finalised within days. News of the letters will be a huge setback for Chan and Sukumaran and their families and lawyers, who had hoped they would be granted another legal challenge. The Attorney-General has already suggested that a Constitutional Court challenge by lawyers for Chan and Sukumaran will not be taken into account and will not delay the executions. Curently Sukumaran (pictured) and Chan remain in an isolated cell on Nusakambangan Island .

Fate of Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran looks even more bleak . The only thing left now is to announce the execution date for the pair . It was another devastating setback for the pair and their families . Indonesian President confirmed executions 'only a matter of time' The pair and the other death row prisoners will be killed by firing squad .

Bournemouth moved four points clear at the top of the Championship with a win against Brighton as manager Eddie Howe set club records tumbling. They scored with their first shot on target in the 70th minute, well worth the wait when Yann Kermorgant hit a wonderful 25-yard free-kick which wrong-footed Brighton goalkeeper David Stockdale and flew into the left of goal. With only their second accurate effort, in the 81st minute, Callum Wilson extended their lead by running on to Kermorgant’s ball over the top and twice turned Greg Halford before finishing.

Manager: Eddie Howe . Booked: Smith . Referee: Craig Pawson . Stadium: Amex Stadium . Attendance: 25,919 . In doing so they set a club record 106 goals in all competitions, beating 104 from the 1956-57 and 1928-29 seasons. And Wilson’s strike was their 89th league goal of the season, moving clear of the previous record 88 they scored in the Division Three South in the 1956-57 season. Prior to the goals they had not looked like the typically fluent Bournemouth that has made them league leaders for the majority of the campaign. The passes were hit that little bit too long, the crosses went out for goal kicks and the through balls were slightly mistimed. Brighton’s Leon Best got in behind their defence in the 58th minute and shaped to bend an effort into the right of goal but his shot was woeful, weak and straight at Artur Boruc. Four minutes later, Mustafa Carayol made a driving run through the middle and got a powerful shot away from the edge of the box but Bournemouth captain Tommy Elphick dived in front to block. But Bournemouth showed they can win ugly and when the game is not going their way, as well as dominating teams with their passing. Howe is well aware that nerves will come into play with his players as they battle for promotion to the Premier League for the first time in their history. Yet his side are starting to demonstrate that they can handle the pressure. Four more games remain, against Reading, Sheffield Wednesday, Bolton and Charlton - a run of fixtures which they should deal with comfortably.

Almost everyone longs to be reunited with deceased friends and family. Now an app, dubbed 'Project Elysium', claims to do just that by creating a 'personalised afterlife experience' with loved ones who have passed. The technology, which is still under development, could be a step towards uploading memories and personalities into computers, allowing people to live on in virtual reality. Almost everyone longs to be reunited with deceased friends and family. Now an app dubbed 'Project Elysium' claims to do just that by creating a 'personalised afterlife experience' with loved ones who have passed. The app's developers have yet to reveal exactly how the technology will work . Created by Australia-based Paranormal Games, the app's developers have yet to reveal exactly how the technology will work. What little we do know comes from their Twitter account, which features a screenshot showing someone being transformed into a 3D model. An accompanying caption says: 'Modelling my bestie and business partner Nick into Project Elysium. Our first demo will be personal to Nick.' Dr Albert Rizzo, director of medical virtual reality at the University of Southern California said he believes potential users would have to send pictures and video of the deceased to the developer. What little we do know comes from their Twitter account, which features a screenshot showing someone being transformed into a 3D model. An accompanying caption says: 'Modelling my bestie and business partner Nick into Project Elysium. Our first demo will be personal to Nick' But the company may also need to harvest even more data so that they can construct the person's personality, mannerisms and movements. 'If I knew I had an incurable disease, maybe I would do a full body scan and have a digital replica created,' Dr Rizzo told DailyMail.com. 'And I would sit down for 20 hours and have people ask me questions about my life and what I think about different things.' He says this can all be programmed into virtual reality to create a living record of someone that people can interact with using VR headsets such as Oculus Rift. But experts are divided over how this can impact a user's mental health. Some argue that it can provide real comfort and support in times of grief, while others say it may prevent people from moving on from trauma. Bina48 is a robotic head that uses a 'Mind Clone' of the memories, belief and feelings of a real person . It may be possible to live forever by uploading your memories, thoughts and personality onto a computer within the next ten or twenty years, according to a leading pioneer of the technology. The technology, which is similar to that seen in the film Transcendence starring Johnny Depp, is being developed by entrepreneur Martine Rothblatt. She has already created a disturbingly realistic robotic 'clone' of her wife Bina that she hopes will be a prototype for the technology. The robot apparently shares the ideas and personality of Bina by creating a database of her memories, beliefs and thoughts, along with information taken from social media interactions and blogs she shares. This allows the robot, called Bina48, to express opinions and interact in conversations like a real, living person. Mrs Rothblatt, 60, an internet radio entrepreneur who lives as a transgender woman, believes the these 'Mind Clones' could eventually be used to help provide social interactions for people living alone and even help recreate the personalities of people after they have died. 'I think helping people to confront difficult emotional challenges done in a safe environment is a positive thing,' said Dr Rizzo. 'When people avoid processing things, this is when it comes back and haunts them.' 'I don't think there is any disrespect to the dead to want to view them and interact with them,' he added. Project Elysium has been entered into the upcoming Oculus VR Jam 2015 contest. To be eligible for the jam's grand prize, the team have to showcase more screenshots by April 27, followed by video footage the week after. The grand prize winner in this track will receive $100,000, with runner ups earning $50,000, $30,000 and $10,000 respectively.

A shocking surveillance video showing a mob of teenagers beating two high school students on a subway platform has been released. The footage captured at Spring Garden station in Philadelphia on Tuesday shows the group of youngsters viciously attacking the victims just seconds before the train pulls into the station. They then pull them to the ground, punch them and repeatedly stamp on their heads. Brawl: The footage captured at Spring Garden station in Philadelphia on Tuesday shows the group of youngsters viciously attacking the victims . Targeted: They then pull them to the ground and punch them. Other parts of the brawl are hidden from the cameras behind pillars in the subway station . The brawl, involving students from Benjamin Franklin High School, even spilled onto the tracks, with one person falling onto the line during the confrontation. As a train pulls up, both the victims and some of the suspects appear to get on the same carriage. Witnesses tried to intervene, but couldn't break up the group as the assailants kept on hitting the helpless youngsters. About a dozen students appear to be egging the fight on which officials have said may have started because of a dispute over a girl. The victims were allegedly followed into the station from the street. As they got onto the platform, someone pointed them out with a signal. Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority Police Chief Thomas J. Nestel III told Philly.com: 'It’s an outrageous event. This is so dangerous, it’s not even funny. We have operating trains down there. There are passengers waiting for the train... it’s horrendous. 'We've identified some potential aggressors. There is a criminal investigation with the school district," Nestel said. "The message that we're trying to get out is if you act up on SEPTA, we're going to have a picture of your face and we're sharing it with the school district. School district spokesman Fernando Gallard also told the news website those involved could be expelled or face serious disciplinary action. 'What we have seen is a brutal violent attack that could that could have ended with a loss of life.' SEPTA detectives are said to have spoken to the two boys who were victims in the attack. Dangerous: At one point the fight spills onto the tracks when one of the suspected attackers falls onto the line . Brutal: One youngster is seen stamping on the head of one of the victims behind a subway map . Bystanders: The fight continues as the train pulls into the station. Some witnesses do their best to intervene but fail to break the mob up . Gone: Police officers and station staff try to search for the assailants who have all boarded the train .

(CNN)The Solar Impulse 2, the experimental plane attempting to fly around the world without using a drop of fuel, has been grounded by the weather in China. What was supposed to be an overnight pit stop in the southwestern city of Chongqing has now stretched into a two-and-a-half week stay. It's an unexpected layover that is testing the patience of the pilots and more than 60 team members, just a quarter of the way along a journey that will cover some 35,000 kilometers (21,748 miles) over five months. "You can believe that your will can influence the weather," says pilot Bertrand Piccard, who comes from a long family line of explorers. But "then you'll be really disappointed because it doesn't work. "Or you just know that it's an adventure you do with the forces of nature." Piccard, along with Andre Borschberg, a Swiss engineer, are taking turns flying the single-seater aircraft, which took off from Abu Dhabi on March 9 and has successfully flown through Oman, India, and Myanmar. There is much at stake. Their mission, which the pilots say is aimed at proving the power of renewable energy, and inspiring innovation, has been 12 years in the making. In many ways, it has become Piccard and Borschberg's raison d'etre. But so far, the Solar Impulse 2 has been spending a lot of time on the ground. The latest setback came when a Thursday takeoff was canceled, because the cross winds in Nanjing, the plane's destination, were forecast to be too strong around its expected landing time. Because of its weight, at just 2,300 kilograms -- about the same as a large SUV -- the aircraft needs near perfect weather conditions, including cross winds of less than 4 knots, or about 7 kilometers an hour, in order to fly. While the team is used to waiting, they are clearly eager to move on. "Our boss is the sun," says Solar Impulse spokeswoman Claudia Durgnat. Durgnat says there may be a tiny window ahead, with the next possible departure from Chongqing on Tuesday. "It's not good before, and the days after don't look very clear." Even with the delay, Durgnat says, the plane technically isn't behind schedule. That's because the team needs to wait until the end of the month for the northern hemisphere days to get longer, before the plane can venture across the Pacific Ocean to Hawaii. With more than 17,000 solar cells along the tops of its wings and fuselage, the Solar Impulse 2 stores up energy during the day, in order to power the motors that carry it through the night, typically at speeds no faster than a car on a highway. Inside a specially constructed tent at the end of the runway at Chongqing International Airport, a skeleton team of less than a dozen people works to complete the day's tasks. The rest of the crew has been waiting for weeks in Nanjing. Even with the extended stay, no time is wasted. Piccard spends a few hours of the afternoon in the cockpit, training to prepare for the Solar Impulse's crossings over the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean, what the team calls "the moment of truth." The plane will then return to Abu Dhabi, where it had taken off. Nearby, two technicians repair a couple of the flight computers, which display critical information in the cockpit, punching extra holes in their casings so they don't overheat. Meanwhile, Borschberg has returned to Switzerland to rest and get medical treatment for a migraine and a skin condition. The team expects him back in China early next week. Borschberg is still scheduled to fly first leg of the Pacific crossing, which could last up to five days and nights. "The airplane is ready. The mission control center is ready. We've been waiting for that moment since so long," says Piccard. 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.

It's no secret celebrities spend thousands upon thousands of dollars on maintaining their looks. From bloody 'vampire facials' to placenta serums and of course plastic surgery - the fountain of youth runs deep. But an app is now trying to cut through all the cosmetics to determine exactly how old a person looks based on a picture. The website, called  How old do I look, it allows people to analyse any image found on Bing, Microsoft's search engine, or upload their own. It even allows users to search for celebrities - and see what Microsoft thinks their real ages are. Scroll down for video . Looking good: The app, by Microsoft, believed that 69-year-old Helen Mirren - lauded for her youthful appearance and character - was actually 55 . The site was able to accurately guess Kim Kardashian's age as 34, but thought 37-year-old Kanye West was actually 38 - while a woman in the background of the image was deemed to be just six-years-old . On-point: Modern Family star Sofia Vergara apparently looks 13 years younger than 42, while President Barrack Obama looks as he is - 53 . 'This may be hard to believe but it took a couple of developers just a day to put this whole solution together, starting with the pipeline from the web page to the Machine Learning APIs to the real time streaming analytics and real time B,' said Microsoft. It designed to site to show off the capabilities of its cloud server software. It revealed the site today at its annual Build developers conference in San Francisco. 'We wanted to create an experience that was intelligent and fun could capture the attention of people globally, so we looked at the APIs available in the Azure Machine Learning Gallery,' it said. The system works by analysing 27 points on the face. Called face landmarks, they are a series of specifically detailed points on a face; typically points of face components like the pupils, canthus or nose. 'These attributes are predicted by using statistical algorithms and may not always be 100% precise. Oops: The site incorrectly guessed 30-year-old Khloe Kardashian is actually 44 . David Beckham, 39, sporting a full beard, was recognized as being 45 by the system, while 49-year-old model Cindy Crawford registered as 40 . Madonna came out of the software well, being 37 - far below her real age of 56 - while it failed to recognise Taylor Swift at all . 21 year old singer Ariana Grande was recognised as being 27 - while a logo for a beauty product was spotted as a 15 year old girl .

(CNN)It is not hard to imagine the conversations inside the Hillary Clinton camp prelaunch: How do we take the best known woman in the world and make her seem like less of a big shot? How can the people in Iowa and New Hampshire get to know the "real Hillary," the Midwestern Methodist? (As a friend told me, she's someone who "likes to sing 'God Bless America' on New Year's Eve.") And how to open the minds of people about someone everyone already has an opinion about? Same questions, no doubt, that the staff asked in 2008 when she ran against the newbie Barack Obama, and same questions they asked when, as first lady, she ran for the Senate in New York. In that race, she ended up spending a lot of all-ears quality time in upstate New York. In this race, she could be spending a lot of all-you-can-eat time at Diners, Drive-ins and Dives — just like the TV show. (Except Guy Fieri would probably have been recognized by the crowd at Chipotle. Just sayin.' ) Dining aside, it's hard -- almost impossible -- to soft-launch a campaign with a superstar politician. All the gauzy ads and the small classrooms and the coffee shops can't mask the Houdini-like effort Hillary Clinton is making to escape the inescapable reality -- that even her "Scooby-Doo" van is followed by throngs of press. (I half imagined an O.J. moment with a helicopter hovering as she made her way down I-80.) Try as she might to launch with a humble start — not entitled to anything — she still is who she is. Virtually unchallenged. Not to mention famous, accomplished and controversial. In watching it all unfold, it's hard to underestimate the task at hand. It's also hard to figure out whether it's actually going to work. Hillary Clinton — and her experienced campaign team — are disciplined and relentlessly on message. That's usually a good thing when you're running a presidential campaign. But when you're sitting at a community college in Iowa and you tick off your rationale for running and your resume — unprompted — it seems less effective and more oddly incongruent. (Especially when the former secretary of state described her tenure in five words — as "standing up for our country." Short shrift, it seems to me.) Maybe it's that the old lessons of message discipline don't work in the informal environment the campaign is trying to create — at least not with this candidate. The hardest combination in politics is that just-right mixture of spontaneity and discipline. The ability to understand exactly what you have to say (over and over) and then say it as if you have never said it before. And look like you're having a great time doing it. We like to call it authenticity, but it's probably not. It's a honed skill that combines connection and gravitas, both of which the voters demand in a president. (A majority of voters -- 53% -- say they want to vote for someone who has been financially successful, as opposed to someone who has not.) So there's this balance: If you're too much like them, you're nothing special to vote for. But if you're too different, you're not relatable. It's a balance that doesn't come easily to Hillary Clinton. But she's not alone. When President George H.W. Bush was running for re-election in 1992, he was facing his own image issues. His populist challengers were calling him insensitive to middle class woes in the struggling state of New Hampshire. Bush tried mightily to drop the presidential persona, did some town halls, and famously declared: "Message: I care." Some said he actually read it from a cue card, but he also said this: "I don't know what I have to do to convince people here that I really care about this (the economy). I do." He lost. To an empathetic I-feel-your-pain Bill Clinton. And the rest, as they say, is history. Or, in Hillary's case, at least trying to make history.

Avid users of MSN Messenger and other instant messaging services that were popular before Facebook and Twitter will remember the ‘away’ message. And years after it was popular, Facebook is bringing back short updates in a new form – the ‘Sidebar status’. The feature lets users post a short message about what they are doing in a sidebar added to the social network’s mobile app, complete with an illustrative picture, but it's currently only available to selected people for testing. Facebook's Sidebar status feature (pictured) will let users post a short message about what they are doing in a sidebar added to the social network’s mobile app, complete with an illustrative picture . The sidebar can be accessed by swiping right on the screen and brings up a user’s most messaged friends. A Facebook spokesman told MailOnline: ‘Millions of people already use the sidebar to quickly find and contact their friends. ‘We're testing new features in this space that let you and your friends stay up to date on all the things that make up your day.’ The sidebar can be accessed by swiping right on the screen (news Feed pictured left) and brings up a user’s most messaged friends. Here, they can see short updates such as 'making blueberry scones at home' and 'watching the game at home' (right) Facebook has started collecting information about the other websites users visit, the links they click on and their searches. The social media site already harvests details people share on their profiles, including where they went to school, their interests and where they live. But under a new privacy policy – to which anyone who has signed into Facebook since February has been opted in automatically – it can track activity outside the website, including online searches and some of the details users share with retailers. A Facebook spokesman said: ‘It takes into account pages and places visited on Facebook, alongside browsing on the internet.’ She added that the changes help Facebook 'to better serve more relevant advertising to you.' The site uses cookies – small files which it places on your web browser or device – to collect information which can then be transmitted back to Facebook. The new terms were introduced as part of a wider update to Facebook's privacy policy, which - the social network claimed - was designed to make the rules easier to understand. Facebook is testing the service in Taiwan and Australia, where from today, users of the app will see short status messages under their friends’ names, The Verge reported. Users can choose from an array of small pictures, such as a bicycle or coffee cup, for example, to go with their status. As well as the addition of the images, the sidebar updates differ from a regular status updates because they don’t show up in the main News Feed. They can just be seen in the sidebar and expire after 12 hours – allowing only the person who posted them to access them again. While the updates are visible to friends, users can change the privacy settings to determine who sees an update. The comparison of the old ‘away’ messages has been drawn because of the small square images and the fact they will be sent to only close friends, despite the fact that we are rarely away from phones and computers now-a-days. For many people, Facebook’s main News Feed hosts information from a large number of contacts and brands as well as friends, and the social network has heard from its users that people want a place to see and share smaller updates too. The idea is that the sidebar is a quick way to keep friends in the loop of what a user is doing and vice versa. Users can choose from an array of small pictures, such as a bicycle or coffee cup, for example, to go with their status (pictured left) and add a location tag (pictured right)

Boss Nigel Pearson has urged Leicester to keep their cool and ignore their relegation rivals. The Foxes host Swansea on Saturday just three points from safety in the Barclays Premier League after back-to-back wins.

Vardy celebrates in front of the travelling away fans after hitting the winner against West Brom . But after their mini-revival, Pearson wants his side to remain focused on their own jobs. 'I'm very wary of people flipping the emphasis,' he said. 'Our future is in our own hands and if we go into the last game with that we have given ourselves a realistic chance. 'We need to make sure our own run-in is what we want it to be. Leicester manager Nigel Pearson has urged his players to focus on their own job and not worry about their relegation rivals during run-in . 'It's helpful that other teams are being dragged into it. People are continually adjusting the form table and their predictions. 'We can't get involved in anything apart from being involved in our own games that may change people's perceptions. 'It's great when results go your way but they only help if you've done your own job. 'It's important for us to be in touch.

Ultimately, Bristol City were never destined to become the first Football League club to win promotion this season at Deepdale, even though they are inching ever closer. Swindon’s win over Peterborough meant Steve Cotterill will have to wait until Tuesday to finish the job of returning to the Championship, but almost as importantly they made sure Preston wouldn’t make any ground on them in the top two. Three points at Bradford on Tuesday will do the trick - only that standing in their way now. It would take something to go seriously awry for the Robins not to be returning to the second tier after a two-year absence, and they did their job well enough to prevent any late scares in the north west. Bristol City striker Aaron Wilbraham celebrates his 63rd minute goal against Preston at Deepdale . Preston (3-5-2): Johnstone; Clarke, King, Wright; Humphrey (Wiseman 84), Welsh, Johnson, Gallagher, Laird; Beckford (Davies 90), Garner (Robinson 84) Subs not used: Stuckmann, Kilkenny, Woods, Little . Bristol City (3-5-2): Fielding, Ayling, Flint, Williams; Tavernier, K.Smith, Pack, Freeman (Elliott 90), Bryan; Agard (Emmanuel-Thomas 82), Wilbraham . Subs not used: Richards, Cunningham, Osborne, Saville, Wagstaff . A six-minute rendition of ‘F*** off Swindon Town, you are staying down’ rang out of the gleeful away end at Deepdale - populated by 2,400 - as that return got ever closer. City had dispensed of their rivals on Tuesday night, hammering them 3-0, and took great delight in revelling in their triumph. It was an afternoon whereby neither side played with any nerves - there are reasons why these two occupy the automatic promotion places - although lacking a fluidity you would perhaps expect. There was an illusion of this being an open game, but the two five-man midfields shattered that. Jermaine Beckford came closest for the hosts, his smart overhead kick just flying wide, while the out of sorts Daniel Johnson blasted way over. Joe Garner felt he should’ve been awarded a penalty after being clattered by Frank Fielding. Steve Cotterill, knowing results elsewhere dictated they could still clinch elevation by five o’clock, clearly put a rocket up his free scorers at the break. Before then they had threatened from free-kicks, managed to get into decent positions, but didn’t threaten nearly enough. Wilbraham got on the end of James Tavernier’s wicked cross from the right, but his shot was superbly tipped onto the bar by Sam Johnstone. Kieran Agard failed to stretch far enough to convert from two yards shortly afterwards. Preston were on the ropes, their biggest crowd in two years growing restless immediately after half-time. That was until Jermaine Beckford popped up, five yards out, to send Deepdale delirious just before the hour mark. Paul Gallagher picked up on lapse defending to take control of the situation inside the away box, firing across goal for Beckford to sweep beyond Fielding. At that stage, it took Simon Grayson’s side seven points ahead of MK Dons - drawing at Port Vale - in third. But they only managed to hold the lead for four minutes, Aden Flint intelligently flicking a header towards the middle of the six-yard box for Wilbraham to power home in front of the travelling band from the West Country, his 20th of the season. Grayson will be frustrated at the way in which his side switched off from a routine set piece. This could’ve been a day they made the title race very interesting indeed. As it was, Agard forced Johnstone into another decent save, diving down to his right to tip wide on the angle, as Cotterill’s side searched for a winner. That did not come, despite substitute Jay Emmanuel-Thomas’ best efforts. The ice is stored away, but not for long.

Second-placed Preston hosted League One leaders Bristol City . Jermaine Beckford fired the home side into the lead in the 59th minute . Aaron Wilbraham equalised for Bristol City four minutes later .

This is the dramatic moment a brave village watchman fought off a wild leopard armed with only a stick in India. The incident took place in Olani village, four kilometres from Manpur, in central India and was recorded by terrified villagers from the relative safety of hut rooftops. To try and protect his fellow villagers, the fearless ward ran towards the leopard brandishing the weapon. The brave village watchman stands on guard with his stick as the leopard moves towards him . Watched on by a crowd of bystanders, the ward beats the leopard twice on the head as it tries to slash him with its claws . Even though the man sits defenceless on the dusty earth, he continues to fend off the leopard with his stick . After a few terrifying seconds, the leopard - inches away from the man's bare feet - eventually runs off . He managed to strike the big cat on the head twice before it retaliated, dumping the ward to the ground. Astonished bystanders could be heard screaming as the leopard stood at the feet of the seemingly doomed man. Despite being injured on the floor and unable to move, the courageous ward continued to fend off the leopard with his stick and after a few seconds the animal ran off. Mahendra Sharma, a school teacher, said: 'Even the armed forest officials seldom muster courage to fight a beast.' According to local media, the man did not suffer any serious injuries as a result of his death-defying encounter. In last year's Indian elections, rural communities blamed the government for placing them at risk of leopard attacks by failing to provide basic infrastructure such as electrical lighting and street lighting. The dramatic incident recorded by a terrified onlooker took place in Olani village, in central India .

The owner of an Indiana pizza restaurant who was forced to close shop after she told a local news reporter that her establishment would not cater a gay wedding reaffirmed her beliefs in an interview on Saturday. Crystal O'Connor, owner of Memories Pizza in Walkerton, said that she stands by her statement, and that she does not hate gay people - she just does not support gay marriage. She then responded to the now staggering $850,000 that has been raised in support of her establishment by saying; 'God has blessed us for standing up for what we believe, and not denying him.' Scroll down video . Crystal O'Connor (above), owner of Memories Pizza in Walkerton, Indiana, says she stands by her decision to never cater a gay wedding . She has closed her store (above), but said she will reopen again and $850,000 has been raised for the business by supporters in just two days . Demonstrators gather outside the City County Building on March 30, 2015 in Indianapolis, Indiana . In her interview, with Fox News Business' Neil Cavuto, O'Connor also said; 'It is not a sin that we bring gays into our establishment, and to serve them. It is a sin, though, if we condone. If we cater their wedding.' She then added; 'We feel we are participating, we are putting a stamp of approval on their wedding, and we cannot do that.' And despite all of her recent troubles, O'Connor said she is ready to get back to work, she is just not sure when she will open. 'I am still shaken over this, and I will be the one that's serving the customers and answering phones and I'm not ready to face that yet,' she explained. It was a contributor from Glenn Beck's The Blaze who set up the fundraising page on GoFundMe for the pizzeria, with a goal of helping 'the family stave off the burdensome cost of having the media parked out front, activists tearing them down, and no customers coming in.' As of Saturday afternoon, $850,000 had been raised in just two days. The news comes a little over a week after Indiana passed the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, which allows businesses to openly discriminate against gays, and just a few days after O'Connor told a local news station she would refuse to serve her pizza at a gay marriage ceremony. Speaking to ABC57, Crystal O'Connor said: 'If a gay couple came in and wanted us to provide pizzas for their wedding, we would have to say no.' The establishment has been in operation for nine years, and the interior is adorned with crosses and bible quotes. Just outside the pizzeria, a signs states that the staff begin each morning with a prayer. 'We are a Christian establishment,' O'Connor confirmed. O'Connor said in a recent interview with Neil Cavuto (above) of the money raised; 'God has blessed us for standing up for what we believe, and not denying him' Meanwhile the NCAA has voiced their concern with Indiana's new law. On Saturday, openly gay basketball star Jason Collins and openly gay Division I star Derrick Gordon from the University of Massachusetts showed up to watch the games during the March Madness tournament at Indianapolis's Lucas Oil Stadium . Both men have expressed how upset they were with the new law, and how happy they were with the NCAA's response to Governor Pence. 'The NCAA, they took a bold step,' Collins said earlier this week. 'I think bold leadership is what's needed. I'm very proud of the NCAA taking such a stance and moving forward they definitely need to make sure the fans, the teams, the players, everyone involved with sporting events, when they go to these venues, when they go to these states, these cities, that all members of the community are protected by the laws there.' The stadium was also a protest site as hundreds of people marched through the city's downtown, calling for Indiana to add protections for gays and lesbians in the new law. Their chants attracted to attention of basketball fans who were at the stadium for the Final Four games, and some offered cheers of support. Also on Saturday, openly gay basketball stars Jason Collins and Derrick Gordon (above) arrived for the NCAA Final Four in Indianapolis . The protest came days after Indian Governor Mike Pence signed revisions into the controversial law. The revisions prevent businesses from using the law in court to defend refusing to provide services to any customer because of their race, religion or sexual orientation, according to CNN. But protesters wanted the revision to add sexual orientation to one of the protected categories included in the state's anti-discrimination law to prohibit workplace discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people. They chanted 'Hoosiers don't discriminate! No more Band-Aids masking hate!' as they walked toward the stadium carrying rainbow flags and signs reading messages like 'No hate in our state' and 'Equal rights for all'. Police officers who blocked intersections so the protesters could march along downtown streets without incident estimated that between 500 and 600 people took part in the 'peaceful' march. There were no signs during the march of supporters of the state's religious freedom law.

Crystal O'Connor, owner of Memories Pizza in Walkerton, Indiana, says she stands by her decision to never cater a gay wedding . This despite the fact that she claims she has been receiving death threats for her beliefs, though none have been documented . She has closed her store, but said she will reopen again and $850,000 has been raised for the business by supporters in just two days . O'Connor said in a recent interview of this; 'God has blessed us for standing up for what we believe, and not denying him' Also on Saturday, openly gay basketball stars Jason Collins and Derrick Gordon arrived for the NCAA Final Four in Indianapolis .

Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson has admitted he has already been through the wringer, even before he steps back into the Octagon. Jackson returns to the UFC after two years with Bellator when he takes on Fabio Maldonado in Montreal on Saturday night. But he had to first endure a protracted legal battle before he was permitted to feature at UFC 186. Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson and Fabio Maldonado face off during the UFC 186 weigh-in on Friday . ‘Everything happens for a reason,’ he said. ‘It was a very stressful period, it was so stressful preparing for this fight. I've never went through this type of thing before. I felt like I had to fight to get here, and that's been a tough fight. 'I probably won't feel any emotions until after the fight or right before the fight. I just wanted to make it here for the fans, though. I feel like the fans wanted to see me fight, a lot of fans bought tickets and wanted to watch the pay-per-view and see this fight so I'm glad to be here. 'He's [Maldonado] good on paper. He's a stand up fighter; on paper it's the type of fight I love so it should be a good show for the fans. But I've heard he's been doing a lot of wrestling so we'll see what happens.’ Jackson, the former light-heavyweight champion, takes on Maldonado at a catchweight of 215lb. Former light-heavyweight champion Jackson has been through a stressful fight to make UFC comeback . 'I'm tired of fighting guys who are cowards, who just want to take you down and lay on top of you. In fights like that, the fans lose,’ he added. 'I am a true definition of a fighter, you know what I'm saying. My style is a brawl, a street fighter. I like the excitement of the surprise of what he's going to bring at me. 'We're both pretty big guys. It was stressful preparing for this fight - it was kind of hard for either of us to keep our weight down. I just think it's fair for both of us [that this is a catch weight fight at 215lbs]. ‘Fighting is mostly mental, even the weight loss part of it. When you're stressing out, there's nothing you can do. The thing you guys want to see is two healthy, strong fighters fighting each other, not people who are killing themselves trying to get down to weight the night before.'

Nick Clegg was heckled over his broken tuition fees pledge today as he ramped up his attack on George Osborne – with a stark warning that the Tory Chancellor is 'a very dangerous man'. The Deputy Prime Minister was met by protesters in Surbiton, south-west London, who chanted: 'Nick Clegg lied to me, he said uni would be free'. Mr Clegg ignored the protesters as he stuck to his message that only the Lib Dems can be trusted to balance the budget without hitting the poor. Scroll down for video . Nick Clegg was heckled by tuition fees protesters while out campaigning in Surbiton, South West London, today - while Lib Dem supporters tried to intervene . Nick Clegg was in Kingston and Surbiton to campaign with fellow Cabinet member, Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change, Ed Davey today . The Lib Dem leader's campaign stop came after he launched a furious attack on the 'ideological' cuts planned by the Tories. Speaking to Tony Blair's former spin doctor Alastair Campbell in May's edition of GQ magazine, Mr Clegg said the chancellor's plans would do 'so much damage'. He added: 'I don't know of a developed economy that wants to do something as rigidly ideological as he wants to do, to balance the books through public spending reductions alone, not tax, with one section, the working poor, taking the biggest hit. 'I find it socially and morally unacceptable, but also economically a disaster.' The 'dramatic lurch to the right' involves a 'harder approach than anything the arch-Thatcherites would do' and would 'destroy public services', he said. Mr Clegg added: 'George Osborne is a very dangerous man with a very dangerous plan, and I will do everything in my power to stop it.' In contrast, Mr Clegg said the Prime Minister was 'a classic traditional shire Tory', adding: 'I can live with that.' He said Mr Cameron was 'very much a Tory, and in that tradition he is not too much about grand vision'. The Deputy Prime Minister launched a furious attack on the 'ideological' cuts planned by the Tories . Mr Clegg met seven-month-old Elise Popperwell and her mother Melissa Popperwell in South West London this morning . The Deputy Prime Minister said David Cameron was 'a classic traditional shire Tory', adding: 'I can live with that.' Asked about Ed Miliband, Mr Clegg said he was a 'perfectly nice guy, personable, as is David Cameron'. The Lib Dem leader said he wanted his party back in government 'because Osborne's ideological assault on public services has to be stopped' and 'Ed Miliband and Ed Balls' head-in-the-sand approach to public spending has to be challenged, because it would be really bad for the economy'. Treasury Secretary Danny Alexander meanwhile claimed that a top Tory told him 'you take care of the workers and we'll take care of the bosses', in a private Whitehall meeting to discuss the Coalition Government's priorities. Mr Alexander said it showed that David Cameron and George Osborne were guilty of 'breathtaking hypocrisy' for trying to claim responsibility for raising the threshold at which people pay tax - while privately arguing for tax cuts for the better-off. He said: 'In March 2012, when the economy was still in the very early stages of recovery, we wanted to do a very big increase in the personal allowance to put a lot of money back into folks' pockets. The Tories' priority at the time was the top rate of tax. 'I remember one meeting with a group of senior Conservatives and one of them said, 'listen, you take care of the workers and we'll take care of the bosses'.

Sergio Ramos was the first man Carlo Ancelotti embraced at the final whistle of Real Madrid’s dramatic Champions League win over Atletico Madrid on Wednesday. Asked after the game when it was that he had decided to move the defender forward into midfield to cover the absence of Luka Modric, he replied: ‘The minute after I found out Modric was injured’. The two kept it between themselves and it worked on the night. Ramos is one of those players for whom the old Liverpool song about Jamie Carragher ‘We all dream of a team of Carraghers’ would be appropriate. He could play in every single position on the pitch. Sergio Ramos (left) celebrates with Javier Hernandez (centre) and Pepe after Real's winning goal . Ramos gees up the crowd during another all-action display at the Santiago Bernabeu for Real Madrid . It was a fiery Madrid derby on Wednesday night, but Ramos (left) once again proved his worth to Real . He often fools around in goal at Spain training. He started his Real Madrid career as a right back and won the European Championship there for his country. He has filled in at left-back, can play across the midfield and actually started his youth football career as striker. Had he been born British he would probably have grown up as a box-to-box midfielder. In Spain midfielders who have pace and can head and tackle often end up at centre-back and that is where he has settled. On Wednesday when his team needed him he was pitched into midfield and he let no-one down. And that’s the thing about Ramos. He very rarely lets anyone down. He is Real Madrid’s Carles Puyol – the all-action hero who rises above everyone else in in the penalty area in the Champions League final and heads in a corner that equalises Atletico Madrid’s 1-0 lead in injury time, allowing Real to play out extra-time and score three more to lift the trophy. Ramos heads away from his own penalty area, but spent most of the game marshalling the midfield . The makeshift midfielder holds off Atletico Madrid's Koke during a superb display in the middle of the park . And when does fall short as he did from the penalty spot against Bayern Munich in 2010 in the Champions League semi-final when he sent his kick – at least as far as Twitter was concerned – into outer space, he has the guts to take another one in the European Championship final a couple of months later, and not only score but dink it Panenka style over the keeper’s dive. He has been mocked in the past for his Colemanballs comments that usually amount to declaring himself ‘happy with the three points’ after a cup game or ‘looking forward to the second leg’ after a league game, but even those who have in the past mocked him have come to admire him. It always seemed that even Jose Mourinho during his fall-out with Iker Casillas could never really properly fall out with Casillas' ally Ramos because there was too much about him that he admired. Ramos too, while ultimately siding with Spain team-mate Casillas, always saw the worth of a bold and proactive manager. The Spanish centre-back celebrates his crucial, last-minute goal in last year's Champions League final . Ramos has shown character to bounce back from his errors, as his penalty for Spain in 2012 showed . His supporters believe he stands for a dignity that many feel is disappearing from the game. ‘I like managers to be nice guys but I also like them to have balls’ he said of Ancelotti’s decision to play him out of his usual position against Atletico. ‘We would both have never heard the end of it had we been knocked out’ he said after that 1-0 win with him deployed to win aerial duels with Mario Mandzukic who Ancelotti had noted dropped back into midfield to get on the end of Atletico keeper Jan Oblak’s drop kicks. Real now have nine games left if they reach the Champions League final. Ramos will play in all of them no doubt. He may even cover for Modric again with the midfielder not back for another five weeks; he will play as an auxiliary striker if Real Madrid need a late goal, and he’ll go in goal if the emergency presents itself. Someone really should teach Real Madrid supporters that song: ‘We all dream of a team of Sergios’

Paris Saint-Germain forward Edinson Cavani has rejected rumours that he does not get on with team-mate Zlatan Ibrahimovic insisting the only issue he has is being played out of position. Reports had suggested a breakdown in the pair's relationship and earlier in the season coach Laurent Blanc even said they must improve their partnership on the pitch. Former Napoli forward Cavani admits that he and Ibrahimovic are not necessarily friends but dismissed speculation of a rift with the Sweden international.

'I do not know where this rumour of a bad relationship with Ibrahimovic comes from,' Cavani told Canal Plus. 'We are footballers who play for the same club and we respect one another. One cannot be friends with everyone.' But Cavani has reiterated his frustration at being shoehorned into a front three and not playing in his favoured position alongside Ibrahimovic. 'The only concern that I have ever spoken about is that I was recruited to play as a striker with Ibrahimovic and it has not always been the case.

'There is a long series of games where I have not scored in Ligue 1 but that can happen. In France, people judge me as a lone striker, but I do not play in that position. 'But aside from that, everything else is perfect here.' Cavani has been linked with a summer exit and, despite revealing his intentions to honour his contract that runs for another three seasons, he refused to rule out a possible move. 'Currently, I am just thinking about finishing the season in Paris and also respecting my contract,' he added. 'My attention is only focused on training with the club that pays me. But anything can happen in football.'

Crystal Palace manager Alan Pardew insists he is better than many of the Premier League's big-name managers but has no immediate plans to leave Selhurst Park for a table-topping side. Palace have won six out of 10 league games since Pardew succeeded Neil Warnock at the start of the year to all but guarantee their place in the Premier League next season. The Eagles were in the bottom three when Pardew took over and their climb up the table has succeeded in easing relegation fears and subsequently boosting the profile of a manager who has yet to take charge of a club constantly vying for honours. Crystal Palace boss Alan Pardew believes he has the ability to manage one of England's top sides . Pardew, pictured with Arsene Wenger, feels he could do a better job than some of his rival managers . Pardew harbours no thoughts of leaving Palace in the near future, but maintains he would acquit himself better than some of the managers currently employed by the Premier League's trophy-chasing sides. 'I look at the top teams and feel I could do that job better than I'm seeing it being done,' Pardew told BBC Radio 5 Live's Sportsweek programme. 'But I'm quite happy where I am and if I work in this part of the league for the rest of my career I will be extremely happy. 'I'm really happy here - I don't really want another job,' he added. 'In a way the (Palace) board have been lucky because even if I have great success here I won't be looking to jump away.' The Crystal Palace manager, pictured with Yannick Bolasie, has said he is not looking to jump ship . Manchester City will provide a stern test of Pardew's managerial ability when they visit Selhurst Park on Monday and Pardew hopes his side's teamwork can overcome the considerable technical ability of Manuel Pellegrini's star-studded line-up. 'Mr Pellegrini's options on the bench will be significantly stronger than my own to try and get a result in the game with 15 minutes to go. 'But it doesn't always work out like that, (as) Burnley proved to Man City it is about sometimes the team being stronger than the individual and on Monday night we hope that's the case for Crystal Palace.'

Guilty: Glenn Mason, 56, has said he will pay back the whole £185,000 out of his RBS pension pot . A respected NatWest bank manager who was jailed for stealing £185,000 from his elderly customers to fund his internet gambling addiction will have to pay back every penny. Glenn Mason, 56, plundered the accounts of nine pensioners including an 83 year-old woman and a 92 year-old man living near his branch in Biggin Hill, Kent, the Old Bailey heard. Mason, who was given an award by the Metropolitan Police in Bromley in 2009 for his crime fighting efforts, got away with the thefts for almost a year before his arrest in July 2012. His attempts to cover up his crime by transferring money using the identity of two of his colleagues, Julie Jeffrey, 50, and James Cato, 35, led to them being sacked and charged with fraud. It was only when Mason pleaded guilty in September that the case against them was dropped at the Old Bailey. Mason, who was jailed for 15 months in November last year, has said he will pay back the whole £185,000 out of his RBS pension pot. The bank has already refunded the customers targeted by Mason, and will receive the money as compensation. ‘The benefit was £185,000 and the recoverable amount is greater than that so the available amount will be the same’, said prosecutor David Hughes. ‘The loser here ultimately was RBS - they had to reimburse the account holders.’ Mr Hughes said the bank had started civil proceedings against Mason, as well as the compensation claim that comes after a criminal conviction. ‘If he makes a payment from his pension pot to RBS then that would deal with these proceedings and they would come to an end.’ Mason, who sobbed in the dock as he was jailed, did not appear in court for today’s hearing. Judge Stephen Kramer QC will confirm the money has been paid at a short hearing on May 15. At his sentencing hearing, Andrew Lawson, representing Mason, said the bank manager turned to gambling after his teenage son was injured by a roadside bomb while fighting with British troops in Afghanistan. Mr Lawson said that all of the stolen money was paid into his gambling account and told the court: ‘It was late night poker and online games that are designed to tempt you into spending money in the hope of a big win.’ The court also heard statements from two of Mason’s victims, Julie Amos and Leslie Pilditch, who both said they no longer felt able to trust banks. Julie Jeffrey also described how she lost her job after her arrest and added: ‘I no longer feel proud, my life has fallen apart.’ Mason's actions took place at Natwest in Biggin Hill (pictured). The bank manager was said to have turned to gambling after his teenage son was injured by a roadside bomb while fighting in Afghanistan . Elaine May, the current manager of the NatWest Biggin Hill branch, also said in a statement that the thefts had ‘an ongoing impact within the community’ and put strain upon the staff. Mason continues to live in the area with his wife and son and has been working in a local newsagents. The judge, Mr Recorder Simon Farrell QC, told him: ‘You stole roughly £185,000 over a period of a year from nine victims who were all elderly and undoubtedly vulnerable. ‘Your fellow worker Julie Jeffrey, who was falsely arrested because you used her ID details to steal the money, described how, having worked for NatWest since the age of 16, losing her job as a 50 year-old woman and being reduced to delivery leaflets in all weathers. ‘Plainly these are very serious offences which everyone agrees cross the custody threshold. ‘You are of previous good character and someone who has suffered considerable personal tragedy. ‘Your wife suffered from cancer in 2005 and your son at only 19 went to Afghanistan to fight for his country and was the victim of an improvised explosive device that caused him very serious injury. ‘I accept this caused you to develop a serious gambling addiction which was in fact the root cause of stealing the money from customers. ‘In my judgement I am afraid these matters are so serious that I am not able to suspend the sentence. The best I can do is to pass a sentence of 15 months imprisonment. But for your personal mitigation this sentence would have been far longer.’ Mason, of Flamborough Close, Biggin Hill, pleaded guilty to a single charge of fraud. The case against Jeffrey, of Court Road, Orpington, Kent, and Cato, of Robert Street, Plumstead, south London, was discontinued by the prosecution.

Justine Miliband fell in love with her husband Ed after she was attacked by a Doberman while canvassing on his behalf - even though she had been 'furious' with him after a bungled first date. Mrs Miliband, 44, has revealed that she first met the Labour leader at a dinner party hosted by a mutual friend and thought he was 'good looking' and 'unattached'. But the Labour leader failed to tell his future wife that he was secretly going out with their 'mutual friend' - understood to be the former BBC economics editor Stephanie Flanders. Worse still, the politician persisted in trying to bore his future wife with constant talk of economics, which she can't stand. Scroll down for video . Justine Miliband, right, said she fell in love with her husband Ed, left, after she got bitten by a dog . Mrs Miliband, right, said Ed, left, did not tell her that he was in a relationship when they first met at a party . The mother-of-two was campaigning with her husband in the north west at several events. In an interview with the Daily Mirror, Mrs Miliband said: 'Canvassing in the rain always reminds me of falling in love with Ed in 2005. 'I had never been out leafleting before and didn't realise you had to keep your eye out for dogs on the other side of the letterbox. 'I'd been bitten by a Doberman. Ed bandaged me up and I fell in love with him.' The Doberman incident happened while canvassing in Mr Miliband's constituency in Doncaster. However, Mr Miliband almost doomed the couple's relationship on their first encounter after he failed to reveal that he was already in a relationship. She said: 'I thought he was good looking and clever and seemed to be unattached. But we just went down a conversational cul-de-sac. 'Apparently we had nothing in common. He wanted to talk about economics – one of my least favourite subjects. None of our conversations went anywhere.' The unpromising start to their relationship was compounded when she found out he had been going out with the woman who invited them to dinner. She said: 'I found out he was secretly going out with the woman who had invited us for dinner. I was furious. 'I bumped into him a couple of times after that, but we didn’t start seeing each other for at least a year.' Mrs Miliband said she first met the Labour leader at a dinner party hosted by a mutual friend - understood to be the former BBC economics editor - who Ed was secretly in a relationship with . Mrs Miliband said neither her or her husband are bothered about the 'kitchengate' controversy when it emerged the couple had two kitchens - or 'bacongate' when Mr Miliband was caught struggling to each a sandwich . The couple have two children, Daniel and Samuel. However, Mrs Miliband, who is a lawyer, said she has no intention of giving up her job in the event her husband is elected prime minister. She said she was 'genuinely taken aback' by the suggestion. Mrs Miliband said she has been surprised by some people's obsession with their domestic arrangements. She added: 'With kitchengate, I was just amazed at the ink being spilled. I can't get upset about things like that when people are having terrible lives in this country and around the world. 'There are things in politics that are really serious and then there's lots of other stuff. It's partly why Ed and I get on so well. Both of us couldn't care less about kitchengate or bacon buttygate.'

A South Australian law professor has said that police acted ‘outrageously’ by subjecting a woman to an oral swab test after she was reported for flashing her breasts. Karen Davis, from Port Pirie in South Australia, notoriously flashed her K-cup breasts on Google Street View and was reported by police with disorderly behaviour. She handed herself into police voluntarily. However, ABC News reports that South Australian law professor Rick Sarre believed it should not result in charges or a court appearance and that the swab was unnecessary. Karen Davis (pictured) from Port Pirie has caused controversy after a picture appeared on Google Maps Street View showing her bearing her size-K breasts . ‘I think it's outrageous, but I know young juvenile offenders who have been questioned over certain things who have had the same thing happen to them,’ he said. 'That behaviour's being defended by the police commissioner, who says ''that's what happens these days''. ‘That doesn't surprise me because unfortunately that's the kind of law and order climate in which this Government has pushed us in the last dozen years.’ The 38-year-old was captured streaking by a camera car for the popular Google Maps app, which allows users to zoom in on certain streets and towns in cities all over the world with a 360-degree view. Police released a statement alleging the 38-year-old mother 'pursued' the Google car to make sure she was captured exposing herself, and that it was an illegal act. 'The woman’s actions were the same as someone flashing their genitals and the public expectation is that we take action,' said Superintendent Scott Denny of Port Pirie police. 'Recently in Port Pirie we arrested a man for exposing himself in public - this incident is no different. 'It is not appropriate for anyone to expose themselves in public places. Our community should be able to expect a bit of decency.' In the image, Ms Davis can be seen holding her arms up in the air with her T-shirt hunched up around her neck bearing her breasts, as she follows the Google camera cars around the street. Her sons are playing in the background and an unknown man stands at the fence watching. Across the road, a neighbour is lounging on her outdoor furniture, watching the whole thing unfold. Ms Davis, who plans to skydive topless for her 40th birthday, has hit back at the controversy caused by her actions, claiming that 'flat-tittie chicks' are not confident enough with their own bodies and should focus on how they look. Ms Davis had issues with her size-K breasts in her 20's and is finally ready to embrace them and she plans to skydive topless for her 40th birthday . The mother says she is happy the picture appeared online and thought it was funny . Speaking to Daily Mail Australia, Ms Davis was in tears over the nasty comments coming from her community after she was branded a 'bad mother' and 'pure filth' for her raunchy behaviour. 'They are narrow-minded people who are not happy with their own bodies,' she said. Posting on her Facebook account, Ms Davis addressed the fact that she pursued the car through Barry Street in Port Pirie until they got the perfect shot and believes locals are jealous of her antics. 'Haters hate, you got the guts to do it?' she posted on Facebook after the photo went public. 'All the flat-tittie chicks think I am disgusting. Big-boob envy has hit Port Pirie.' Taking to Facebook, disgusted commenters attacked Ms Davis' parenting skills after it became clear that her two sons were in the background of the picture. Ms Davis criticised 'flat-tittie chicks' and claimed they needed to focus on their own bodies . 'I'm sure your children will be proud of their mother that is probably going to cause them a lot of embarrassment,' one Facebook commenter said. 'Oh goodness. Can't even begin to imagine how her children are feeling,' another user said. However a select few came out in support of Ms Davis's show on Google Maps. 'Let her go, she's having some fun, Pirie people need to lighten up a bit. if more lovely ladies would get them out more often the world would be a much happier place,' one commenter said. Ms Davis told Daily Mail Australia that she thought the act would be funny and that it was an item she has now ticked off her bucket list. She also said that she has a friend in the United Kingdom and she thought it would brighten up his day if he saw the image online. 'I have a friend in the UK. If he looks on there he will smile,' she said. Ms Davis wasn't sure that the photo would make it on to Google Maps but she said she is delighted that it did. 'I think maybe some need to start their own bucket list and leave mine alone,' she said. While Ms Davis enjoyed herself bearing her breasts on the street, her neighbour sat on her lounger watching from next door . She also revealed that since the photo has been released she has attracted a whole host of new friend requests on Facebook. Many young men have tried to befriend her but she has not accepted any of them. Ms Davis said she has only learnt to embrace her size-K breasts in the last few years after spending her youth hiding them away. 'I  always got picked on and it wasn't until late in my 20's that I became confident in myself,' she said. She also revealed that she has to buy her bras online from the UK as they do not make size-K bras in Australia. 'It would be nice if they made my size bra in Australia,' she said. Ms Davis said that she would do it all again, even considering the backlash the image has received. 'It's my life not theirs,' she said. 'When you point your finger at me, you have 4 pointing back at yourself.' Some people online have suggested that she should be formally charged for her display but she has contacted the police who have confirmed that they have 'no concerns'.

A rare insight into Manchester United's unpopular owners has lifted the lid on how they run the club. The man who spent six years as spokesman for the Glazer family has written an enlightening account of his time with the Manchester United chiefs. Tehsin Nayani's book, 'The Glazer Gatekeeper: six years speaking for Manchester United's silent owners', challenges popular perception about the US bosses who succeeded in a debt-burdening £800m takeover in 2005. Scroll down for video . Former spokesman for the Glazer family, Tehsin Nayani (left), has written the 'The Glazer Gatekeeper' Sir Bobby Charlton talks with Bryan Glazer, Joel Glazer and Avram Glazer (L-R) at Old Trafford in 2005 . The Glazers' takeover of Manchester United was met with huge protests by supporters in 2004 . In it, he claims: . • Malcolm Glazer had little to do with the takeover, leaving it to his sons . • The family were always in it for the long haul and wanted United to overtake Chelsea . • Son Joel Glazer refused to believe United fans could 'hate' them . • The 'Red Knights' who supposedly launched a buyout were never serious suitors . • Trusted manager Sir Alex Ferguson regularly invited the family into his dressing room . • The Glazers are 'not ogres' Nayani, who worked in finance PR in London, was brought on board by the Glazers before the takeover and served as the notoriously private family's spokesman until current executive vice chairman Ed Woodward sent him on his way in 2010. But across 323 pages he lifts the lid on the Florida-based owners who caused a ferocious storm when they seized control of the club and plunged it into debt, revealing a previously unseen human side. Nayani, who uses an anti-Glazer protest sticker as the logo for his book, states that the family were 'completely unruffled' by the mass protests that greeted their arrival and that the move was led by Malcolm Glazer's sons. 'Hundreds of angry protestors (surrounded by a heavy police presence) were filmed chanting 'Die Glazer, die!' he says, as the brothers made a hasty exit. But they were back to speak to staff the following day. Sir Alex Ferguson shares a joke with Avram Glazer, Joel Glazer and Bryan Glazer (L-R) in June, 2005 . A young United fan watches on as supporters protest ahead of the 2005 FA Cup final against Arsenal . 'They seemed completely unruffled by the preceding night's events,' Nayani adds. Nayani reveals that the Glazers were huge fans of Ferguson and never considered sacking him, speaking of a close relationship between the Scot and the Americans and revealing that Ferguson ritually invited them into the dressing room. 'The Glazer brothers also spent twenty minutes or so with Sir Alex and the players in their dressing room,' he reflects. 'A post-match ritual they would fulfil each time they attended a game.' Following his own first meeting with the owners, in their plush Palm Beach office suites, Nayani states: 'The Glazers were not ogres – on the contrary they were an unusually down to earth, close-knit family. He adds: 'It was 'abundantly clear they were in it for the long-term and were committed to seeing the club regain its pre-eminence.' In 2010, with anti-Glazer sentiment arguably at its loudest following the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid for £80m, Nayani recalls how he made a panicked call to Joel Glazer when he saw United legend David Beckham pick up a green and yellow scarf and wave it to the Stretford End following United's Champions League win over AC Milan, for whom he was playing at the time. The scarves, in the colours of United's original founders Newton Heath, were a symbol of protest worn by thousands but Glazer, who was watching on TV in Florida, appeared unconcerned. 'My adrenaline pumping, I immediately grabbed my BlackBerry, scrolled through my address book to 'JG' and pressed the green icon,' Nayani writes, adding that he was petrified Beckham would become the poster boy of the protestors. 'We don't know Beckham's motives for putting on the scarf,' he says Glazer told him. 'Also I'm not sure the publicity is necessarily bad. 'Football is a passionate business. Won't it blow over? Nayani claims that the Glazers did not sell Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid without Ferguson's approval . Malcolm Glazer, pictured in 2003, left his sons to complete the takeover, according to Nayani . 'Sure, some fans are angry and protesting inside Old Trafford. But from where I'm sitting there are many millions of fans who are just happy the team are through to the next round. They're supporters of Manchester United too. I get that some fans don't like us, but to hate us, it's such a strong word. To hate us when the club has been so successful, it's extraordinary.' Nayani adds that Joel Glazer became obsessed with football (and never called it soccer) thanks to an English, Tottenham Hostpur-supporting room-mate he had while at college. Aside from the family itself, the book contains a number of interesting anecdotes about the club's staff. Nayani recalls how a furious striker Ruud van Nistelrooy, who would soon leave for Real Madrid, reacted to being an unused substitute in the 2006 Carling Cup final thumping of Wigan Athletic. 'He contemptuously ripped his token winners' medal from around his neck before making an early exit from the dressing room, sweeping angrily past me as he did so,' he reveals. Nayani exposes the lengthy celebrations after the 2008 Champions League Final victory over Chelsea in Moscow, recalling that the party went on until 7.30am back at the hotel. 'At around 5am a huge breakfast buffet was laid on with chefs cooking up delicious made-to-order omelettes for their ravenous guests,' he writes. 'While we ate, David Gill and Sir Alex Ferguson gave touching speeches, interrupted frequently by loud cheering, everyone intoxicated by the sense of historic occasion.' Avram Glazer and Joel Glazer (L-R) watch United take on Burnley at Old Trafford earlier this season . The green and gold protests by United fans left the Glazer family 'completely unruffled', according to Nayani . Nayani adds that Ferguson cut a serene figure after the penalty shoot-out victory and found an unusual place to rest his weary legs. 'Sir Alex,' he writes, 'beaming like the Cheshire Cat, was sat alone literally on top of the padded silver crate, inside of which was the Champions League trophy.' He adds that Ferguson even failed to give an unnamed player who had forgotten his passport the famous hairdryer treatment, saying simply: 'Oh dear, why have you gone and done that, lad?' Nayani says that the club felt a 'palpable sense of injustice' after it emerged they would not be able to parade the trophy on a open-top bus journey through Manchester after booze-fuelled Rangers fans had rioted in the city during their Uefa Cup Final defeat earlier that season. The author also recalls players sleeping on the floor of a plane with uncomfortable seats on a pre-season trip to Asia, where he inadvertently tripped up Ferguson with his suitcase in a Chinese airport. 'I immediately turned to look over my shoulder and saw that it was, in fact, Sir Alex Ferguson himself who had become entangled with my case,' he writes. 'Horrified, I was immediately seized with fear and remorse. I apologised to him profusely and enquired after his welfare; fortunately he was not hurt and he was immediately forgiving.' Nayani dismisses suggestions Real Madrid went over Ferguson and Gill's heads to do the Ronaldo deal. United fans burn a Malcolm Glazer dummy during a protest outside Old Trafford in May, 2005 . He adds that when the decision was made to sell it was because the player wanted to move on and the owners 'after a long spell of soul searching by manager Sir Alex Ferguson, would accept this'. Nayani says that in 2010, with a rumoured bid from the Red Knights (a group of well-off United-supporting businessmen) reportedly in the offing, the Glazers commissioned a stack of fresh market research to investigate supporters' attitudes towards them as well as the Red Knights and were pleased with the results. He reiterates that there was no desire among the family to sell and says no bid was forthcoming. Nayani reserves fierce criticism for Wayne Rooney's now-infamous 2010 interview in which he stated Gill had failed to give him the reassurances he sought about United's 'ability to attract the top players in the world'. 'It was a crudely-disguised dig at the Glazers' ownership,' he writes, before adding that Joel Glazer had spoken to Rooney by telephone reassuring him about his ambitions for the club before a new contract was offered. Nayani, who was left out of the loop on the Rooney situation, sensed he was nearing the end of his time with the club with protests easing off and at a meeting shortly afterwards with Ed Woodward, his fate was sealed with a 'generous golden handshake'. Tehsin Nayani's book, 'The Glazer Gatekeeper: six years speaking for Manchester United's silent owners', is available on Amazon.

The new Southpaw trailer last month featured Jake Gyllenhaal showing off an extremely toned torso. But according to his trainer, former professional boxer Terry Claybon, it took a huge amount of work to get the 34-year-old actor ripped for the shoot, including six months of training before filming even started. He also worked out for an incredible six hours per day, including 2,000 sit ups, 1,000 each morning and the same at night. Of course, Jake had to work even harder to get in shape because he had just dropped approximately 30lbs to play freelance crime reporter Lou, who stumbles upon the dangerous underworld of Los Angeles in Nightcrawler. Scroll down for video . Blood, sweat and tears: According to his trainer, it took a huge amount of work to get Jake Gyllenhaal ripped for Southpaw, including six months of training before filming started, 2,000 sit ups and six hours of training each day . Much thinner: The 34-year-old lost 30 pounds for 2014 thriller Nightcrawler and had  to put that weight  back on plus 15lbs of muscle . He not only returned to his normal weight - but he then put on another 15 pounds of pure muscle to play the desperate fighter Billy Hope. His trainer Claybon told Yahoo: 'Gradually we built up, day-by-day, to 2,000. It takes time to do that', and revealed that his exercise regime included, 'three hours of boxing in the morning and three hours of strengthening, conditioning, and cardio at night.' Speaking about his weight loss for Nightcrawler, Jake told Us Weekly: 'I knew that [Lou] was literally and figuratively hungry, [so I got into the] mode where I was always a bit hungry. Beaten: The trailer shows a muscular Gyllenhaal bloodied and bruised by an opponent in the boxing ring . Bulking up: Jake poses here with his trainers, including former boxer Terry Claybon (second from right), who was responsible for whipping the once-scrawny actor into shape . Gyllenhaal also attended several boxing matches to watch how real fighters move in the ring . 'It's not different than getting into character for anything. It's more about believing where you are and being present where you are. Who's to say what the process is? I have a strange one … but I love what I do.' Claybon explained to Yahoo that Jake put back on the weight he had lost before gaining an extra 15 pounds of muscle for Southpaw. Health experts told the Daily Telegraph that Gyllenhaal likely went on a high-protein diet, that likely included protein powder. He likely had to consume 130 grams of protein - two and a half times the daily recommended intake. Health experts also told the Telegraph that such drastic body changes could cause long-term damage to his body. The huge swing in Gyllenhaal's physique recalls other drastic changes actors have made in their bodies. Among the most recent and most notable is Matthew McConaughey's turn from Magic Mike hunk to Dallas Buyers Club AIDS patient. Meanwhile, in Southpaw, Jake plays Billy Hope, a professional boxer who must rebuild his life after his wife is killed and his daughter is taken away from him. The recent trailer opens with Gyllenhaal's understatement: 'I expected a hard fight. I put my family through a lot.' It then cuts to him in the ring bloodied and bruised as he takes a relentless pounding from an opponent, while his wife, played by Rachel McAdam and Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson look on in horror, before Hope suddenly turns it around sends the other boxer to the canvass. Horrified: His wife, played by Rachel McAdam and Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson can only stand by and watch ringside . Adrenelin: Gyllenhaal plays Billy Hope, a boxer who allows himself take punches to fire himself up . The reason Gyllenhaal's character allowed himself to take the beating in the first place is then explained. 'The more you get hit the harder you fight, I get it,' his wife says. 'Only now you've taken way to many hits before you get off. You cant fight like that any more. Think about her.' She's talking about the couple's only daughter Leila, who is played by film newcomer Oona Laurence. The youngster is fresh from lauded performances on Broadway as Matilda in the stage adaptation of the Roald Dahl classic. But the trailer also reveals there's a much more devastating blow in store for Hope, when his wife is accidentally shot dead by a bodyguard during an altercation with he has with another boxer who had been taunting him, which McAdam's character had told him to walk away from. Doomed: The two-and-a-half minute clip reveals McAdams is killed during an altercation between Hope and another boxer .

The Archbishop of Canterbury has hailed the victims of the massacre at a Kenyan university earlier this week as martyrs during his Easter Sunday sermon. Speaking at Canterbury Cathedral today, the Most Rev Justin Welby said the 148 mainly Christian victims of Thursday's brutal mass-murders were 'witnesses, unwilling, unjustly, wickedly, and they are martyrs in both senses of the word.' Pope Francis made similar statements during Easter Sunday Mass at St Peter's Square in the Vatican, where he also made a nod to the recent agreement between Iran and the international community over its nuclear power, calling it a 'step toward a more secure and fraternal world.' Religious holiday: The Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby delivers his sermon during the Easter Day service at Canterbury Cathedral, Kent . 'Martyrs': The Most Rev Justin Welby said the nearly 150 victims of the university massacre in Kenya were 'witnesses, unwilling, unjustly, wickedly, and they are martyrs in both senses of the word' Religious leader: Pope Francis waves before delivering his 'Urbi et Orbi'(to the city and the world) message, where he prayed for an end to the persecution of Christians, from the balcony overlooking St. Peter's Square after Easter Mass . Long wait: Thousands had gathered in St Peter's Square to hear the Pope, despite heavy rain and thunderstorms on Sunday morning . The Archbishop said Christians must resist without violence the persecution they suffer and support persecuted communities, with love and goodness and generosity. And he said: 'To witness is to be a martyr. I am told by the Coptic Bishop in England that the Coptic Christians murdered in Libya last month died proclaiming that Jesus Christ is Lord. They are martyrs, a word that means both one that dies for their faith and one that witnesses to faith. 'There have been so many martyrs in the last year. On Maundy Thursday, three days ago, around 150 Kenyans were killed because of being Christian. They are witnesses, unwilling, unjustly, wickedly, and they are martyrs in both senses of the word.' He added: 'These martyrs too are caught up in the resurrection: their cruel deaths, the brutality of their persecution, their persecution is overcome by Christ himself at their side because they share his suffering, at their side because he rose from the dead. 'Because of the resurrection of Jesus from the dead the cruel are overcome, evil is defeated, martyrs conquer.'

Waiting for the pope: Hundreds of worshipers wait in the rain for Pope Francis' arrival to the Easter Mass in St. Peter's Square at the Vatican . This is part of Pope Francis `Urbi et Orbi' Easter message, which he delivered Sunday: . 'We ask for peace, above all, for Syria and Iraq, that the roar of arms may cease and that peaceful relations may be restored among the various groups which make up those beloved countries. May the international community not stand by before the immense humanitarian tragedy unfolding in these countries and the drama of the numerous refugees. 'We pray for peace for all the peoples of the Holy Land. May the culture of encounter grow between Israelis and Palestinians and the peace process be resumed, in order to end years of suffering and division. 'We implore peace for Libya, that the present absurd bloodshed and all barbarous acts of violence may cease, and that all concerned for the future of the country may work to favor reconciliation and to build a fraternal society respectful of the dignity of the person. For Yemen too we express our hope for the growth of a common desire for peace, for the good of the entire people. 'At the same time, in hope we entrust to the merciful Lord the framework recently agreed to in Lausanne, that it may be a definitive step toward a more secure and fraternal world. We ask the risen Lord for the gift of peace for Nigeria, South Sudan and for the various areas of Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. May constant prayer rise up from all people of goodwill for those who lost their lives - I think in particular of the young people who were killed last Thursday at Garissa University College in Kenya -, for all who have been kidnapped, and for those forced to abandon their homes and their dear ones. Earlier today, thousands of worshippers braved thunder and rain to see Pope Francis lead Easter Sunday Mass in St. Peter's Square, the Vatican this morning. The iconic square had turned into a sea of umbrellas as a large crowd of Catholic faithful gathered to see the Pope lead the service in the enclave in Rome. The pontiff himself was shielded from the pelting rain by a canopy outside St. Peter's Basilica, while prelates carried umbrellas in the yellow and white colors of the Vatican. Following days of warm temperatures and sunshine, Rome was lashed by thunderstorms early on Sunday, and the faithful wore rain slickers and held umbrellas during Mass. Afterwards, Pope Francis delivered a mostly sombre and grim 'Urbi et Orbi' (to the city and the world) message, where he prayed for an end to the persecution of Christians, commemorating the students massacred by Islamist militants at Garissa University in Kenya. 'We ask Jesus, the victor over death, to lighten the sufferings of our many brothers and sisters who are persecuted for his name, and of all those who suffer injustice as a result of ongoing conflicts and violence - and there are many,' he said. The pope spoke from the central balcony of St. Peter's Basilica as churches in Kenya, where al-Shabaab gunmen massacred nearly 150 people, singling out Christians for point-blank executions, turned to armed guards to protect their congregations on the most important day of the Christian liturgical year. Marking the third Easter since his election in 2013, the . pope maintained an Easter vigil tradition by baptising late . entries into the Church. 'May constant prayer rise up from all people of goodwill for those who lost their lives - I think in particular of the young people who were killed last Thursday at Garissa University College in Kenya - for all who have been kidnapped, and for those forced to abandon their homes and their dear ones.' Marking the third Easter since his election in 2013, the pontiff prayed for peace in Syria, Iraq and Yemen, Sudan, South Sudan, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Nigeria, where Boko Haram Islamist militants have also targeted Christian churches. 'We ask for peace and freedom for the many men and women subject to old and new forms of enslavement on the part of criminal individuals and groups,' he said. 'Peace and liberty for the victims of drug dealers, who are often allied with the powers who ought to defend peace and harmony in the human family. 'And we ask peace for this world subjected to arms dealers, who make their money from the blood of men and women' he said. The pontiff also made a nod to the recent deal reached in Switzerland last week between Iran and the international community on a framework for a nuclear accord. 'In hope we entrust to the merciful Lord the framework recently agreed to in Lausanne, that it may be a definitive step toward a more secure and fraternal world.

(CNN)As we approach April 27 when South Africa marks the anniversary of the first post-apartheid elections held that day in 1994, we are faced with yet another wave of deadly attacks against African migrants. Outrage triggered by this violence is being heard loudly throughout social media with "#WeAreAfrica" showcasing the need for a common front against this affront. These recurring attacks against migrants and their property might be read as one more indication of how the rainbow nation's dream has faltered. That vision not only symbolized a multi-ethnic South Africa, but one where living in dignity is shared across racial and class lines. Attacks against newcomers in South Africa are often reduced to attitudes of hate and resentment towards other black Africans. The national and international headlines use "xenophobia" as if any one word can convey the multifaceted crisis within which this phenomenon occurs. Labeling this turmoil as xenophobic fails to convey the conditions in which African migrants are scapegoated for the persistent legacy of apartheid in the post-liberation era. This word also does not tell us that extreme poverty now exceeds that experienced under apartheid. And it certainly does not account for how extreme inequality is now fully embraced and normalized by a new black elite joining the "white-haves" of yesteryear. The question of why foreign blacks are targeted and not foreign whites is also repeated ad nauseam, as if the majority of black citizens and African migrants share any common spaces and experiences with white South Africans or white foreigners. Contact between the majority of African migrant groups and native black South Africans mostly occurs in under-developed informal settlements and townships. In the interaction and competition between these groups in these spaces, we need to be wary of the simplistic treatment of South Africa's ailment as xenophobia. Such labeling does not and cannot explain the totality of the contact, competition and conflict between native poor black South Africans and foreign African entrepreneurs. Attention as to how such interactions occur in an environment where a vast portion of South Africa's black majority experiences segregation, persistent and relative poverty, and high crime rates in post-apartheid South Africa is paramount. Neglecting access to social rights, such as water, electricity, education and other services, is tantamount to violence by political leaders against the poor. Condemning and prosecuting those who incite violence is essential to maintaining law and order and protecting those vulnerable because of their nationality. But the evictions, harassment and ultimately brutal killings of foreigners cannot and should not be separated from the daily brutal violence poor South Africans in informal settlements and many townships experience. It cannot and should not be separated from South Africa's status as one of the most unequal societies in the world; it cannot and should not be separated from the fact that South Africa has one of the highest homicide levels in the world. A mantra of xenophobia wishes away the fact that the everyday lives of those in vulnerable positions in this society (the poor, the disabled, women, children, the elderly) are filled with violence similar -- if not worse -- than that facing African foreigners eking out a living in the midst of abject poverty. Labeling South Africa's poor blacks as ungrateful and amnesiac to the history of hospitality other Africans bestowed on their exiles under apartheid does a disservice to both the local poor whose citizenship rights are marginal at best and the resilient migrants in search of asylum and dignity. Such labeling only serves politicians and the elites who are sealed off by barbed wire surrounded by a security industry that outspends and outnumbers South Africa's police force. It allows corruption to persist while the political leaders who are implicated in this violence scapegoat "criminal youth" to further fill an overflowing prison industry. Religious and civil society leaders' recent mobilization saying "not in our name" in reaction to violence against migrants should be applauded. But religious, civil society and student groups also have an obligation to organize and denounce the inequality and the violence that is the everyday lot of the extremely poor in South Africa. Pervasive misery and corruption in the midst of a nation with so much potential should not be tolerated. Neither a hashtag of outrage #WeAreAfrica nor the expedience of the label "xenophobia" can wish away the angst, violence and the impending crisis in South Africa. Migrants' security and dignity is part and parcel of a greater security and dignity for all South Africans, which seem deferred for now.

Xenophobia cannot explain the conflict between native poor black South Africans and foreign African entrepreneurs, says Abdi . Killings of foreigners cannot be separated from the brutal violence poor South Africans experience, she adds.

They may not be much of a match in terms of size - but that proved no obstacle for the budding friendship between this tiny kitten and the Dalmatian who towers over him. Uno, just three weeks old, and Louie, a full-grown dog, were together at home in Spokane, Washington, earlier this month. The clip begins with one of the Pogue family, who recently adopted Uno, tentatively holding him before the two pets are introduced. Adorable: Louie, a full-grown Dalmatian, is shown here snuggling with Uno, a three-week old kitten . After carefully saying hello to Louie's left forepaw, Uno climbs over and settle down between the huge canine's front legs. Louie then shifts his position, giving Uno the chance to nuzzle and lick his neck, before settling down underneath one of his floppy ears. After Uno noses his way forward so the two creatures' faces are side by side, Louie turns his head and nuzzle his new companion lovingly. Throughout the exchange Louie's mother, whom the family adopted at the same time as the kitten, looks on approvingly. According to the Pogue family, their dog has a great track record with kittens. When they have adopted young animals previously, a hug with the Dalmatian has been a rite of passage as they join the family.

The mutilated body of a missing elderly British woman has been found 'in two different areas' of a southern French region and a man charged with her murder, local prosecutors say. Violet Price, 80, had been missing from her home in Moustier village since last week, after her son -  a businessman who lives in the area - was unable to reach her by phone after she attended a dinner party. A 32-year-old man has now been arrested and charged with murder after he told police where to find the body parts. Prosecutor Pascal Prache (left) speaks during a press conference in Agen, where it was revealed body parts believed to be that of missing Violent Price had been found in two separate locations . Local police have arrested and charged a 32-year-old suspect, who they say was known to Mrs Price . Violet Price (pictured), 80, had been missing from her home in Moustier village since last week . Mrs Price's son, who lives in the same area, raised the alert on Saturday after he went to her house when she failed to respond on the phone. Police immediately started looking for the 80-year-old widow who lived alone, mobilising 70 officers, a helicopter and divers, and searching hospitals as well - to no avail. A source close to the probe had said she was 'neither depressive nor suicidal', adding that there was no apparent reason for her disappearance. The Daily Telegraph reported the 32-year-old man has now been arrested and charged with two counts of murder, although prosecutor Pascal Prache could not give any information on a possible motive. The suspect told police where to find the body parts in two different areas of the southern region. Mr Prache said: 'Given the declarations of the suspect and observations on site, it appears to be the body of Violet Price,' he said, adding that an autopsy would confirm this. He added the suspect had already been sentenced in 2005 to eight years in prison for manslaughter and the man and Mrs Price knew each other, though they were not close. They were both present at a meal hosted by the in-laws of Mrs Price's son Saturday, both left separately mid-afternoon, but for reasons as yet unknown, both found themselves at her home later in the day. When officers visited Mrs Price's house on Saturday they found the lights on, and two cups of coffee – one half full. The source said Mrs Price did not own a mobile phone, but had plenty of friends and family in the Dordogne, and had been enjoying life. Mrs Price is a widow whose maiden name is Finnis. She moved to France from London three years ago so as to be closer to her son. She speaks very little French. The Dordogne, east of Bordeaux, is hugely popular with British expats and second home owners, who move there for the beautiful countryside and relatively cheap property prices. French police collect evidence at the home of Violet Price, who went missing on Saturday after attending a dinner party . Mrs Price and her late husband, Harry, bought the house in Moustier 15 years ago, originally as a holiday home to rent out. Mr Price died last year. Mrs Price also moved to Moustier to be closer to her son, Paul, who is married with two children, and lives in nearby Pardaillan. Claudine Eon, the Mayor of Moustier, said: 'I never expected it to end like this. I'm a natural optimist, and thought she had gone off with friends. 'I've spoken with a lot of people in the village who, from now on, will be keeping their doors locked. They've already barricaded themselves in.' Mr Eon said Ms Price was 'charming and courteous', and mainly spent her time with members of the British community in the area.

The families of two slain New York City police officers threw out the ceremonial first pitch at the Mets' home opener at Citi Field, while the widow of American Sniper Chris Kyle pitched in for the San Diego Padres. New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady also threw a first pitch, at Fenway Park in Boston - but didn't do himself proud, chucking the ball straight at the ground. The NYPD families were joined by Mayor Bill de Blasio at a time when his relationship with the police department is again coming under scrutiny. Scroll down for video .

Taya Kyle gets a hug from San Diego Padres starting pitcher Andrew Cashner after throwing out the first ceremonial pitch . De Blasio's relations with the police unions and some rank-and-file officers were fractured in the aftermath of the December shooting that claimed the lives of Officers Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu. They were murdered on patrol in Brooklyn on December 20 by a crazed gunman who then committed suicide. Since that crisis, which threatened to overwhelm the mayor's agenda, de Blasio has taken pains to repair relations with the nation's largest police force, brokering a new union contract, investing in new technology and training, and doubling down on his public praise of the department. On Monday, he joined the tens of thousands of fans in cheering as the officers' images were displayed on the park's giant video screens and again when Ramos' two sons and Liu's widow threw out the pitches to Mets players David Wright, Matt Harvey and Curtis Granderson. De Blasio, however, was largely booed when he was introduced to the crowd. A year ago, de Blasio was also booed as he threw out the first pitch (a strike). Both years, he sported a Mets cap and jersey, which was emblazoned with his last name and the number 6, a tribute to Rico Petrocelli, a longtime shortstop on de Blasio's favorite team, the Boston Red Sox. Petrocelli, like de Blasio, was also of Italian descent and lived in Brooklyn. The tribute to the NYPD comes as de Blasio is weighing a City Council proposal to hire 1,000 more police officers. The idea has been endorsed by union leaders who said it would reduce pressure on existing officers to keep crime low. But de Blasio rejected an identical council proposal a year ago, pointing to the city's record low crime and suggesting that the money would be better spent elsewhere.

Members of the Liu and Ramos families, including Yenjian Liu's widow, Pei Xia Chen, second from left, throw out the ceremonial first pitch . Police Commissioner William Bratton has, at times, signaled support for the effort to hire more officers for the department, which now has a headcount of about 34,500, about 6,000 fewer than at its peak in 2001. De Blasio has not committed to hiring more officers but has been more receptive to the proposal in his public remarks than he was a year ago. The council's budget office projected that hiring two new classes of officers, to total 1,000, would cost nearly $69m in the upcoming fiscal year. But the council believes that the cost will be offset by the corresponding reduction in overtime.

Though the city's overall crime rate has fallen again, murders are up nearly 12 per cent from this time a year ago, and shootings have also increased, according to NYPD crime statistics. The mayor is expected to offer a counter-proposal next month and a budget deal must be completed by the end of June.

As Zlatan Ibrahimovic famously believes the World Cup is 'nothing to watch' without him, he's unlikely to be quaking in his boots about facing Lionel Messi in the Nou Camp on Tuesday night. For most people, Barcelona's progress into the Champions League semi-final looks a formality given they beat Paris Saint-Germain 3-1 in the first leg in France. The only man bound to disagree is the one who modestly called his autobiography 'I am Zlatan'. Zlatan Ibrahimovic is put through his paces with Blaise Matuidi (left) and Zoumana Camara at the Nou Camp . Ibrahimovic and his PSG team-mates, including David Luiz, pictured, face Barcelona on Tuesday night . The Sweden international was suspended for the first leg after he was dismissed against Chelsea . At 33, Ibrahimovic is past caring what other people think of him. With an ego that makes Louis van Gaal look like a shrinking violet, he'll walk down the tunnel at the Nou Camp convinced in his own mind that Messi, Neymar and Luis Suarez will be in awe of him. When asked to name a dream team of team-mates he'd played with, he named himself up front with Messi – ahead of Thierry Henry and Alessandro del Piero. 'Football isn't something you plan in advance. It just happens,' he says. His 30-yard propellor kick for Sweden against England is rated by Steven Gerrard as the greatest goal he's ever seen. To be fair, Ibrahimovic's CV allows him plenty of bragging rights. The Swede with Bosnian roots has played for Ajax, Juventus, Barcelona and both Milan giants. He once won eight league titles in a row. Not bad for a poor kid whose immigrant parents moved to the roughest part of Malmo. Now he's trying to make new history with PSG. He was the marquee signing when Qatari owners bought the Paris side and decided to try and turn it into Europe's greatest football club. They agreed to pay him £200,000-a-week, even though France's 75 per cent top tax rate meant their total bill would be close to £50million a year. Not that Ibrahimovic is that overly grateful. He recently called France a 's**t country' and had to apologise in a rare burst of self-awareness. Despite domestic dominance, Champions League glory has remained elusive so far. Ibrahimovic has never won the trophy as a player, and his bad luck in the competition continued when he was harshly sent off in the previous round against Chelsea and was therefore suspended for the first leg against Barca. Ibrahimovic is PSG's main attraction and will take centre stage against his old club Barcelona on Tuesday . The former Barcelona striker jumps for joy after scoirng against Bastia in the French League Cup final . Ibrahimovic, pictured celebrating with Marquinhos, will be convinced that PSG can progress against Barca . For Paris to pull off one of European football's greatest comebacks, Zlatan and Marco Verratti will have to excel. Ibrahimovic undoubtedly has the talent to produce a flash of brilliance or two to put Luis Enrique's men under pressure. His balletic left-footed back heel while on the rise for Sweden against Italy at Euro 2004 was a goal very few players could have scored. His famous strike against England silenced those who wondered why he could never produce against British clubs. Against Barcelona, Ibra will have special motivation. He spent a season at the Nou Camp in 2009/10. It should have been the perfect stage for his talents but he moved to Inter Milan after just a year. Ibrahimovic spent just one season at the Nou Camp before moving to Serie A giants Inter Milan . He felt Messi's insistence on playing more centrally inhibited his own game and that coach Pep Guardiola wasn't strong enough to devise a system that could incorporate both of them. He called Guardiola a 'spineless coward' after Barcelona were beaten by Jose Mourinho's Inter Milan in the Champions League. Ibrahimovic made his point by scoring for Paris in Barcelona in a group game earlier this season. But this is the big one. Nobody will give him a chance – except for Zlatan himself.

Tax adviser Duncan Hodgetts (pictured), from Birmingham, West Midlands, fell to his death from a Manhattan building . A British tax advisor has plunged more than 100ft to his death from an apartment window in a suspected suicide while on a business trip to New York. Duncan Hodgetts, 25, fell from the 14th floor window of the Executive Plaza building in midtown Manhattan at 8.30am yesterday morning. He was found on a third-floor balcony of the neighboring Michelangelo Hotel, near the Rockefeller Center, and was pronounced dead at the scene. It is understood the tax specialist for Ernst and Young, based in Birmingham, had been on a business trip when he fell from the balcony of one of the corporate apartments. An NYPD spokesman said they were treating his death as suicide. He said: 'Officers were called at about 8.29am to the Michelangelo Hotel to reports a man had jumped to his death. 'His body was found on the third floor balcony of the hotel and he was pronounced deceased at the scene. 'Detectives from the mid-district precinct contacted his family and we are not treating the incident as suspicious. 'It is being treated as suicide and there are no further investigations into the matter at this stage.' A doorman at a nearby hotel confirmed to MailOnline that a body was removed from the apartment building at 11am on Monday. In a statement Ernst and Young said: 'We are very saddened to hear of the death of our colleague, Duncan Hodgetts.

'It is all too raw at the moment,' he said. A neighbour, who did not wish to be named, added: 'He was such a lovely man and was driven by his work. 'You would see him come home at all hours but he always had a smile on his face and made time for you.'

The potential domestic auction for Liverpool's Raheem Sterling this summer could decide which of Chelsea, Manchester City or Manchester United lure Gareth Bale from Real Madrid. As first revealed in Football Grapevine last month, Liverpool have put a £50million price tag on Sterling if they opt to sell the 20-year-old. Should Sterling leave for one of the Barclays Premier League's big three, then the other two will focus on trying to persuade Bale to leave Madrid. A potential domestic auction could be sparked for the purchase of Liverpool's Raheem Sterling . Chelsea, Manchester City or Manchester United are among those watching Sterling ahead of the summer . It could decide where Gareth Bale ends up if one club gets Sterling and the other two miss out . It promises to become a tangled transfer web. Bale is, from a playing and commercial point of view, a far 'safer bet' given his proven CV. But his fee of £75m and near £300,000-a-week wages mean his acquisition would restrict other signings under financial fair play guidelines. It's also the case that Bale may not agree to a return to any of the three Premier League clubs who can afford him. Indeed he has indicated he would like to continue at Madrid. But such has been the adverse reaction of many Madrid fans to him this season he may find it difficult to 'tough it out'. And the Spanish club may feel it is a good time to 'cash out'. As it stands Liverpool will not budge from their £100,000-a-week contract offer to England international Sterling, whose advisors believe he is worth about £150,000 in the current market. Liverpool will not budge from their £100,000-a-week contract offer to England international Sterling . Bale (left) pictured during a Real Madrid training session with Portugal superstar Cristiano Ronaldo . Bale's £75m  fee and near £300,000-a-week wages mean his signing would restrict clubs under FFP guidelines . The stance of the Liverpool hierarchy, though, is they will not scrap their salary ladder scale for Sterling in the belief he has not yet justified moving up to their existing top bracket of £140,000-a-week that departing Steven Gerrard has been on or Luis Suarez pocketed before leaving for Barcelona. Given that he has two years left on his existing £35,000-a-week contract, the club feel if Sterling will not agree they should cash in, even if means selling to one of the rivals - even United. Argentine Paulo Dybala, dubbed by Palermo president Mauricio Zamparini as 'the new Sergio Aguero', is set to be on his way to the Premier League this summer. The destination depends on the outcome of the Sterling saga but both Liverpool and Arsenal are in for the 21-year-old. Paulo Dybala, dubbed 'the new Sergio Aguero', is set to be on his way to the Premier League . The destination depends on the outcome of the Sterling saga but both Liverpool and Arsenal fancy him . The 21-year-old currently plays for Palermo in Italy but could be on his way to England this summer . Liverpool have been strongly linked with a move for Arsenal's Theo Walcott but the player's wage demands may put off the Anfield outfit. Walcott signed a near £100,000-a-week deal with the Gunners just two years ago but is already seeking improved terms to commit himself to the club for a further five years. It remains to be seen whether Arsenal are prepared to up his wages again given his appearance record over the past two years which has been hampered by more injuries. Liverpool have been strongly linked with a move for Arsenal's Theo Walcott during the summer . Walcott signed a near £100,000-a-week deal with the Gunners just two years ago but could leave London . Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers would see Walcott as an ideal replacement for Sterling but would only want to pay about the £100,000-per-week mark. If Walcott was still attracted to a move to Anfield, where he would command more regular football, then Arsene Wenger would make a move for Dybala. If Sterling goes and Walcott stays with the Gunners, Liverpool could then move in for the highly-rated Dybala. He is a centre forward who can also operate on the wing and is currently valued in the £15m bracket. Marcelo Bielsa has emerged as one of the front runners to succeed Sam Allardyce as West Ham manager. If, as seems certain, the Hammers do not give Allardyce a new contract in the summer then the club could turn to Argentine Bielsa, currently in charge of Marseille, who lie third in the French league in touching distance of leaders Lyon. Bielsa has an impressive CV having managed the national teams of both Argentina and Chile. Marcelo Bielsa could join the Premier League if he replaces West Ham manager Sam Allardyce . Bielsa and Hernan Crespo relax before Argentina's ill-fated 2002 World Cup campaign . Among the clubs he has managed include Athletic Bilbao in Spain, where he earned a reputation of promoting exciting football in a 3-3-3-1 formation. He is regarded as a progressive attacking coach with both Diego Simeone and Mauricio Pochettino influenced by the 59-year-old. But the appointment of Bielsa would still be a gamble by West Ham. Allardyce may not be handed a new contract during the summer by West Ham when his current deal expires . Bielsa could replace Allardyce if his current contract is not extended by Premier League club West Ham . Over the years he has earned the nickname EL Loco - 'The Mad One'. His command of English is limited and he has little knowledge of the Premier League. The need for West Ham not to even be close to a relegation battle in their last season at the Boleyn Ground before moving to the Olympic Stadium, is obvious. Other contenders on West Ham's long list include Slaven Bilic, Rafa Benitez, Brian Laudrup, Frank Rijkaard and David Moyes. Once Manchester United have completed the long-mooted move for Mats Hummels from Borussia Dortmund at the end of the season, they will - as also predicted here - set their sights on Southampton's right back Nathaniel Clyne. It has been suggested United will offer striker Javier Hernandez, currently on loan at Real Madrid, as part of the deal to land by Clyne. But West Ham are also interested in signing Hernandez.

Chelsea are set to move in for QPR goalkeeper Rob Green to replace Petr Cech at Stamford Bridge . I am hearing . While on England duty Sterling was urged by several around the camp to take a step back and consider the potential downsides of leaving Liverpool at this stage of his career, even if he will land bigger wages for the time being. I hear it was even put to Sterling that the saga now unfolding is more in the short-term interest of his advisor Aidy Ward than his long-term progression as a player. Indeed the Liverpool player should look at what happened to Shaun Wright-Phillips a decade ago. Sterling was reportedly urged by people in the England camp to sit back and think before leaving Anfield . It was in 2005 that Wright-Phillips left Manchester City - before they were big time - for Chelsea in a £21m deal, which was massive at the time. At the time 23-year-old Wright-Phillips looked as though he could be a world beater. But he was never a regular at City and his hugely promising career both at club level and England never reached its potential. Now at QPR, 33-year-old Wright-Phillips has made one Premier League appearance this season. Shaun Wright-Phillips left City for Chelsea in a £21m deal in 2005 but he never reached his potential .

The man accused of killing a gay community college worker said the motorcycle he used to get away broke down along Interstate 95 and he walked 30 miles before a woman headed to Florida gave him a ride, according to a police report released on Wednesday. The woman picked up the 20-year-old Kenneth Morgan Stancil III, whose face and neck are covered in dark, self-administered tattoos, some with neo-Nazi symbolism. The woman didn't know he was armed with a knife and had almost $500, the report by Volusia County Beach Safety officers said. Scroll down for video . Would you slow down for this man? Kenneth Morgan Stancil III, 20, managed to hitch a ride from a woman to Florida after his motorbike broke down, police said on Wednesday. Among his self-administered tattoos are the word 'brotherhood' on his neck and the number '88' on his left cheek which is linked to neo-Nazis . Stancil pictured with his mother Debbie at his graduation. She said he is 'rattled and confused and needs mental help'. The mother also claimed that the victim had made sexually laced comments to her son . The driver was headed to Key West, Florida, but dropped Stancil off in Daytona Beach, where he was found sleeping on the beach on Tuesday morning. When officers approached him, he pulled the knife but dropped it when an officer drew his gun. He was arrested without incident, the police report said. Stancil is awaiting extradition back to North Carolina, where he is accused of fatally shooting 44-year-old Ron Lane, a print shop director at Wayne Community College. On Tuesday, he appeared relaxed in the courtroom and, despite the judge advising him he had the right to remain silent, he admitted to the killing, WRAL reported. He confessed to the shooting in an obscenity-laced statement, saying he 'ridded one last child molester from the Earth', according to the station. He said Lane, who had been his supervisor at the college's print shop until Stancil was fired last month, had been 'messing with' one of Stancil's family members. Lane was gay, and authorities said they are investigating a possible hate crime. They haven't released a motive for the shooting, but Stancil was dismissed from a work study program at the print shop last month. An extradition hearing was scheduled for Wednesday to send him back to North Carolina to face a charge of open murder. The police report said Stancil voluntarily gave police a statement, which authorities did not release. During his first court appearance on Tuesday in Daytona Beach, Florida, Stancil indicated he killed Lane because his former supervisor molested a relative. Nothing in police records substantiated the allegations. The suspect's mother, Debbie Stancil, said she knows the relative was not sexually abused by Lane, as Kenneth Stancil claimed in court, because the relative and Lane had never met. She believes Kenneth Stancil is making the accusations because he is 'rattled and confused'. Stancil, left, shot dead his former work-study supervisor Ron Lane (pictured) 'He just snapped. That is not my son,' Debbie Stancil, said. 'He's probably out of his mind. I think he needs mental help.' Debbie Stancil said her son was angry over being dismissed from his work-study job for excessive absenteeism. She also said Lane made sexually laced comments to her son. 'He was verbally inappropriate with Morgan at school. Very much verbally inappropriate,' she said. 'He would tell him to stop and he kept on.' Lane's brother and sister declined to comment. College spokeswoman Tara Humphries said she did not know whether any complaints had been lodged against Lane. Lane and Stancil started working together in August. Stancil was dismissed in early March. He had been enrolled in a three-semester welding course. Lane and Stancil were linked - whether they knew it or not - by the suicides of people very close to them. Lane's partner of 12 years killed himself last year. Stancil's mother says her son never recovered after finding his father in the backyard after he had killed himself in 2009. Stancil gave himself a facial tattoo last weekend that included the number '88' on his left cheek. Experts who track hate groups said the number is a neo-Nazi code for praising Adolf Hitler. Neo-Nazis have often been accused of attacking gays, said Mark Potok of the Southern Poverty Law Center. Police have not said whether Stancil held white supremacist beliefs or what hate crime they are investigating. Stancil's mother said the tattoo marked a wannabe rather than someone with neo-Nazi beliefs. Stancil, pictured in court on Tuesday, is awaiting extradition back to North Carolina, where he is accused of fatally shooting 44-year-old Ron Lane, a print shop director at Wayne Community College .

A 21-year-old woman, who attended a prestigious military academy high school, has been charged with the murder of a married lawyer found stabbed to death in an upscale DC hotel. Jamyra Gallmon, of Washington D.C., was arrested on Wednesday, according to police. She has been charged with first-degree felony murder while armed over the killing of 30-year-old David Messerschmitt. Police had released surveillance video of a 'person of interest' who was seen entering the Donovan Hotel shortly after Messerschmitt texted his wife Kim Vuong at 7.45pm to tell her he would be home in an hour on February 9. Messerschmitt never returned and the next day he was found dead after being stabbed in the back at his hotel room with 'various credit cards strewn about'. Scroll down for video .

The couple reportedly had not seen each other since February 8, but Vuong didn't think anything seemed wrong with her husband. She reported him missing at midnight, saying it was unlike him to disappear and that usually he got home before her. Messerschmitt was found dead in his room the next day. Police have not revealed exactly what he was doing at the hotel. Last week, Messerchmitt's wife gave an emotional speech, asking for help in finding her husband's killer. 'The world has lost a good person. David's family: a son and brother, and I have lost everything: my husband and my best friend. In one day, I lost the most important person in my life and the man I loved so much. And I have no answers,' she said. A Cincinnati native, Messerchmitt attended Ohio State University where he met his wife. He went on to study law at Boston University before working at a firm in Chicago.

Forget helicopters and BMWs, could the ultimate symbol of wealth be clothes made from gold? On a catwalk show which took place in Xi'an, the capital city of north-western China's Shaanxi province, models strutted their stuff in items made from the precious metal. Including underwear and a chain-mail style shirt which it has been revealed would be worth around £40,000. And this was no lightweight affair either. On a catwalk in Xi'an in China models strutted their stuff in gold underwear, it is thought the look is influenced by royal women in history . The shirt alone worn by the male model weighed in at 7lbs and the matching bra and underwear for the female model also came in at 7lbs. The idea for real gold clothing takes its inspiration from royal women in history, including Cleopatra, Marie Antoinette and Tsarina Alexandra who all reportedly had gold clothing. The organisers of the event said that it took 30 craftsmen three months to make the gold shirt and the women's clothing which is also worth around £40,000. Fashion photographer Manchu Peng, 30, who attended event said: 'There were some good designs there but the gold clothing items really stole the show.' It took 30 craftsmen three month to make this shirt which is mean out of real gold and has a chain-mail style . The model showed off his shirt as on-lookers checked out how the design was made . The idea came after a Chinese designer unveiled an extraordinary set of underwear made entirely of gold last year. The items however were produced as a work of art and not intended for sale. They were modelled by an unnamed woman who was joined by two other models - both of whom posed with glittering gold accessories, including necklaces, a shoe and a rabbit at a store in China. These two women proudly showed off their gold underwear, the items are not for sale but are said to be worth around £40,000 . This gold underwear set has an intricate design with the model wearing a pair of white pants underneath it to protect her modesty . And prior to that a Turkish jeweller unveiled a series glamorous gold dresses - each worth a staggering £85,000. Artisan Ahmet Atakan, based in Izmir, a city in Turkey, crafted each frock out of a total of 78,000 pieces of the expensive metal to form a mesh-like fabric. Despite the eye-watering price tag of 300 thousand Turkish Liras (about £84,800), eight of the unique gowns have already been sold.

Andrea Dossena, the defender Liverpool once paid £7million for, will face no further action after he was accused of shoplifting in Harrods. The 33-year-old, now with League One strugglers Leyton Orient, hit headlines around the world when he was arrested at the Knightsbridge store on April 7. However, Metropolitan Police have confirmed that the Italian and a 31-year-old woman also held at the scene, were released after being interviewed. Andrea Dossena (scoring against Real Madrid) will face no further action after being accused of shoplifting . Dossena, whose crowning moment for Liverpool came when he scored the winner against Real Madrid in the Champions League, last turned out for the relegation-fighting Os on April 14 in a 1-0 home loss to Doncaster Rovers. He also netted four days after that strike against Real back in March 2009, lobbing Edwin van der Sar away at Manchester United in a 4-1 win. Dossena, whose signing was seen as something of a coup for Orient, earned around £40,000-a-week at Anfield. A Metropolitan Police spokesman said: 'A 33-year-old man and a 31-year-old woman who were arrested on suspicion of shoplifting were advised on April 10 that they would face no further action.' Dossena signed a short-term contract with League One strugglers Leyton Orient back in November . Sportsmail understands officers accepted Dossena's claims that he had simply forgotten to pay for a couple of items. Dossena has been capped by Italy on 10 occasions and joined the Os from Sunderland for whom he played under Paolo Di Canio and Gus Poyet. He was heralded by Rafa Benitez on arriving on Merseyside from Udinese back in 2008, but made only 13 Premier League starts for the club. Dossena was arrested on suspicion of shoplifting at Harrods in Knightsbridge on April 7 .

Analysts employed at US intelligence agencies like the CIA, NSA, and National Counterterrorism Center who watch graphic videos all day receive treatment from specialist psychologists to help them deal with the emotional trauma they experience. The analysts watch clips of beheadings, violent attacks and hard core pornography which sometimes features children in an effort to gain clues about where terrorists are and what they have planned. Intelligence agencies employ special psychiatrists and therapists to help the analysts cope with the 'extraordinary toll' the work can have. The analysts watch graphic content and look at violent photos to gain clues about the actions of terrorists . Agencies like the CIA, NSA, and National Counterterrorism Center hire therapists to deal with analysts' trauma . A CIA physician said: 'They're being exposed to material that we're not exposed to broadly in America' In many cases, the therapists have watched the same material as their patients, five current and former intelligence officers told the Daily Beast. A senior physician with the CIA's Office of Medical Services said: 'They're being exposed to material that, day in and day out, we're not exposed to broadly in America. 'That has its own sort of impact and own sort of, for lack of a better term, shock value.' The content analysts watch is often violent, but it's 'mostly' pornography. Sometimes the graphic clips and photos contain encrypted messages and they must be checked to see if they hold useful information. The mental health professionals brief the analysts before they watch anything and remind them there are counseling resources which are available to them. Analysts often suffer sensations of sickness, bouts of grief, periods of depression and experience anger . Brendan Conlon, an ex-chief of the NSA's Tailored Access Operations group, said:  'You have to watch the video and do a forensic analysis to see if there's any lead to pass to along. 'The whole point is to make sure it doesn't happen again.' Analysts often suffer sensations of sickness, bouts of grief, and periods of depression. It is also common for analysts to feel angry or want to hold responsible parties accountable. NSA spokesperson Vanee Vines said in a statement: 'The Agency deeply values the health and wellness of our employees and provides a range of comprehensive services to address their needs. 'The NSA has long offered psychological consultation and intervention services to support our employees' important work against today's increasingly complex global threats.' Before they are hired, the NSA conducts extensive psychological testing on potential employees. At the very least, applicants take a written psychological examination and interview with an NSA psychologist before they are hired.

Crystal Palace would sell coveted winger Yannick Bolasie for '£40million to £60million', according to manager Alan Pardew. Pardew claims all his players are 'undervalued' as the Selhurst Park club bid to assert their Barclays Premier League clout. The former Newcastle boss is ready to fend off big-money bids for his in-demand stars like Bolasie and defender Scott Dann - but conceded 'every player has a price'. Alan Pardew says he would sell Yannick Bolasie if Crystal Palace were offered £40-60million . Bolasie has been in fine form in recent weeks as Palace have enjoyed a successful second half of the season . Democratic Republic of Congo star Bolasie joined Palace for around £400,000 from Bristol City in 2012 but has risen steadily in standing ever since. Last week Pardew slapped a £20m price tag on the 25-year-old's head with Liverpool circling - now he has casually bandied about figures three times as high. 'I'll sell Yannick, if someone wants to give me £40m to £60m, somewhere in there, that would be good,' Pardew said. 'I'll take it and we'll build the team around that money. Every player has a price, of course. All these players here are undervalued, in my opinion. 'This is a top-10 team at the moment, top 12, yet if you put the valuation of our squad against any of the other teams above us, and some below, it's not right. 'So I'm going to address that. Anyone who rings me up will get a proper price. It's only our second year in the Premier League so it's understandable (if players are undervalued). Bolasie celebrates after netting for Palace, as he has begun to add goalscoring to his all-round game . Bolasie scored a hat-trick against Sunderland a few weeks ago, and is attracting the attention of top clubs . 'You need to put your credentials there every week. I think these players are starting to do that now; Bolasie, (Jason) Puncheon, (Joel) Ward, (Damien) Delaney. 'Therefore when I hear figures being talked about players, they are not even close to where I value these players. 'It's very easy to address: a manager has to ring me up and I will tell him the price, and that will be addressed.' Lyon-born Bolasie bagged a hat-trick in Palace's 4-1 Premier League win at Sunderland on April 11, his fine form since prompting a raft of transfer speculation. Liverpool's initial plans to offer £10million this summer have been thwarted, but boss Brendan Rodgers is weighing up offering striker Rickie Lambert as well as increasing his transfer bid. Pardew says he is not keen to lose his star man, but would sell him if the right offer came in . Pardew insists several of his players, including Jason Puncheon (left) and Joel Ward, are undervalued . While Pardew will be at pains to hold onto all his front-line talents at Palace over the summer, the ex-Eagles midfielder conceded the club may not be able to resist an outrageous bid. Pardew said Palace could end up wise to repeat the calculated 'gamble' he helped take at Newcastle when the St James' Park club sold Andy Carroll to Liverpool for £35million in 2011. The Selhurst Park manager believes selling one star for big money can help rejuvenate an entire squad. 'I can think of a situation I had at Newcastle, the last day of the window, a team that wasn't great, not too far away from the relegation zone and we accepted a big bid for Andy Carroll,' Pardew said. 'I said to the chairman at the time that that was a gamble. We were by no means secure; we'd only just come up from the Championship that year. 'But we did it, we spent the money wisely and we ended up with a very, very good team. So it is about the right price for the right player, and then you have to build on that.'

Alan Pardew insists every player has a price, even Yannick Bolasie . But Pardew says £20m price tag on Bolasie is too low . The Crystal Palace manager says his whole squad is under-valued .

The records just keep tumbling for Cristiano Ronaldo at Real Madrid. After his strike against Rayo Vallecano, the Portuguese forward now has 300 goals for Los Blancos, despite having played in Madrid for only six seasons, amassing 288 appearances. He has well and truly made his name as a legend at the Santiago Bernabeu, only trailing Raul and Alfredo di Stefano in the club standings. Cristiano Ronaldo has scored 300 goals for Real Madrid in just six years with the La Liga giants . The Portuguese forward is catching Raul's (l) club record and is just seven goals shy of Alfredo di Stefano (r) Ronaldo heads home his 300th goal for the club - against Rayo Vallecano at the Vallecas Stadium in Madrid . 323 - Raul . 308 - Alfredo di Stefano . 300 - Cristiano Ronaldo . 289 - Carlos Santillana . 242 - Ferenc Puskas . Ronaldo has scored 206 with his right foot, 52 with his left, even managing 41 with his head. 46 of his goals at Real have been outside the box, many of them screamers. After claiming two FIFA Ballon d'Or awards during his time in Spain, as well as glory in La Liga and the Champions League, many would be running out of motivation, scratching around for more records to break. But Ronaldo, 30, doesn't only have the status of Raul or Di Stefano to look up to, but also Barcelona rival Lionel Messi, who is younger, and seemingly still improving. But there are other poachers that have formed their goalscoring reputation at one club, including a Portugal legend and an Everton hero who the former Manchester United man could draw inspiration from. Ronaldo celebrates after scoring his first goal (vs Deportivo in 2009, above), and his most recent (below) THE TOP 10 ONE-CLUB SCORERS OF ALL TIME . 10) Dixie Dean, Everton (1925-37) 383 . Dean is the widely regarded as greatest player to have been born on Merseyside, and scored 60 goals in one league season in 1927/28. Impressed? He achieved that record after fracturing his skull and jaw in a motorcycling accident. Former Everton striker Dixie Dean is widely regarded as the greatest striker ever born on Merseyside . 9) Willy van der Kuijlen, PSV (1964-81) 394 . When his career started in Eindhoven, part of Der Kuijlen's motivation was to work at Phillips. He ended up with almost 400 goals, and was still only capped 22 times by the Dutch national side. Willy van der Kuijlen of PSV runs with the ball in the UEFA Cup match against Bastia in 1978 . 8) Lionel Messi, Barcelona (2004-present) 398* . Staggeringly, this Argentine forward is only 27. As the star of a mightily impressive Barelona team, expect Messi to climb up this list considerably over the next 10 years. Lionel Messi is closing in on the 400 mark with Barcelona and should rapidly rise up the scoring charts . 7) Zico, Flamengo (1971-83 and 1985-89) 401 . An attacking midfielder in the top 10? Often called the 'White Pele', Zico encapsulated a fine generation of Brazilian football, and impressed with his club side in his homeland. Over two spells with Flamengo, it's no wonder he was given a prestigious nickname. Zico of Flamengo takes on Liverpool's (l-r) Ray Kennedy, Graeme Souness and Alan Hansen in a friendly . 6) Eusebio, Benfica (1960-75) 474 . Eusebio helped Benfica to 11 league titles and seven more domestic trophies, as well as four European Cup finals. Not just a poacher, Eusebio had it all and the Mozambique-born player was a Portuguese football legend. Eusebio lead Benfica to 11 league titles and seven more domestic trophies with a staggering amount of goals . 5) Uwe Seeler, Hamburg (1953-72) 507 . Up there with Gerd Muller and Franz Beckenbauer as a German great, Seeker was not a giant but a very strong player with fantastic shooting and heading abilities. His tally probably proves that. Uwe Seeler scored over 500 goals for Hamburg and is up there with Franz Beckenbauer as a German great . 4) Jimmy McGrory, Celtic (1922-37) 522 . Regarded as the Hoops' finest ever player, McGrory netted 55 hat-tricks for the club and went on to rewrite the football record books with his unbelievable scoring feats. 3) Josef Bican, Slavia Prague (1937-48) 534 . Slavia were one of the biggest clubs in the pre-war era, led by a striker from a poor family, brought up in Austria. He fled to Czechoslovakia during the second world war, and certainly made his mark. 2) Gerd Muller, Bayern Munich (1964-79) 573 . Muller scored an incredible 85 goals in a single season as Bayern Munich claimed the Bundesliga title in 1972, and was the league's top scorer on seven occasions. Muller spent 13 campaigns with the Bavarian giants and with his goalscoring record, it's no wonder to see him near the top of the charts. Gerd Muller (centre) scored 85 goals in one league season with Bayern Munich and netted 573 in total . 1) Pele, Santos (1956-74) 1088 . Though his official record stands at 643 goals for Brazilian side Santos, and the 1088 includes strikes against a military XI, Pele tops the charts. Is he the best player of all-time, too? Pele unofficially scored 1088 goals for Santos and is widely regarded as the best player of all-time . PS... who are these Premier League sides' all-time top scorers? ARSENAL . 228 - Thierry Henry (1999-2007 and 2012) 185 - Ian Wright (1991-98) 178 - Cliff Bastin (1929-47) Thierry Henry enjoyed a prolific eight-year spell with Arsenal and is the club's all-time top goalscorer . CHELSEA . 211 - Frank Lampard (2001-14) 202 - Bobby Tambling (1959-70) 193 - Kerry Dixon (1983-92) EVERTON . 383 - Dixie Dean (1925-37) 159 - Graeme Sharp (1980-91) 138 - Bob Latchford (1974-81) LIVERPOOL . 346 - Ian Rush (1980-87 and 1988-96) 286 - Roger Hunt (1958-69) 241 - Gordon Hodgson (1925-36) Ian Rush netted 346 times over two spells with Liverpool and is streaks ahead of anyone else in the charts . MANCHESTER CITY . 178 - Eric Brook (1928-39) 166 - Tommy Johnson (1920-30) 153 - Colin Bell (1966-1979) MANCHESTER UNITED . 249 - Sir Bobby Charlton (1956-73) 237 - Denis Law (1962-73) 230* Wayne Rooney (2004-present) Wayne Rooney is just 19 goals behind Sir Bobby Charlton at Manchester United after his recent strike . NEWCASTLE . 206 - Alan Shearer (1996-2006) 200 - Jackie Milburn (1946-57) 153 - Len White (1953-62) Alan Shearer scored 206 goals for Newcastle, while Vic Watson managed 326 for West Ham United . TOTTENHAM . 266 - Jimmy Greaves (1961-70) 208 - Bobby Smith (1955-64) 174 - Martin Chivers (1968-76) WEST HAM . 326 - Vic Watson (1920-35) 252 - Geoff Hurst (1959-72) 166 - John Dick (1953–63) 166 - Jimmy Ruffell (1921-37)

'For a footballer, to represent their country is the pinnacle, and I'm very proud. I was able to do that and it was a moment I won't forget.'

Kim Jong-Un has appeared in yet another unusual set of pictures, showing him allegedly climbing North Koreas highest mountain in nothing but an overcoat and leather shoes. The jovial dictator allegedly scaled the 9,000ft high Mount Paektu near the Chinese border, before telling troops at its peak that the climb was like 'nuclear weapons'. Pictures released by North Korean state media show the 32-year-old leader smiling on the top at sunrise before visiting troops at the mountain's base. Scroll down for video . Dawn raider: Kim Jong-Un watched the sun rise after allegedly scaled the 9,000ft high Mount Paektu . Cold visit: After sunrise, the North Korean leader greeted Korean People's Army pilots at the summit . Man of the people: Kim Jong-Un can be seen at the centre of the picture, dressed in black, as he poses for a photo with the troops on the mountain . Upon arriving at the top, Kim Jong-Un greeted Korean People's Army pilots, telling them that the alleged climb had given him mental energy 'more powerful than nuclear weapons.' This is just the latest of the dictator's publicity stunts published in state media, praising him for unbelievable feats, following claims last week that Kim Jong-Un could drive by the age of three. 'Climbing Mt. Paektu provides precious mental pabulum more powerful than any kind of nuclear weapon,' the state-owned Rodong newspaper quoted Kim as saying. Mr Paektu, lying on the border with China, is considered a sacred place in Korean folklore and plays a central role in the propaganda glorifying the Kim family. He did it, honest! Despite being dressed for nothing more exhausting than a stroll, North Korean state media claims that the dictator had climbed the mountain before sunrise yesterday . Popular leader: Kim Jong-Un visits Korean People's Army pilots who have completed a tour of battle sites in the area of Mt Paektu . In control: The 32-year-old dictator inspects an honour guard while meeting troops at the foot of the mountain . North Korean news reported that the young ruler scaled Mt. Paektu on Saturday morning along with hundreds of fighter pilots as well as top army and party officials . Pyongyang's state hagiography has it that Kim Jong-Il was born on the mountain -- although many historians say he was born in Russia -- and praises the family for their 'Mt. Paektu bloodline'. State-run news service KCNA reported that the young ruler scaled Mt. Paektu on Saturday morning along with hundreds of fighter pilots as well as top army and party officials. Kim, like his predecessors, has made frequent 'field guidance trips' to industrial plants, army bases, and sacred sites across the country in what analysts say is an attempt at forging an image as an energetic man of the people. Kim, who took over after the death of his father in 2011, seeks seemingly impossible policy goals of improving the economy and developing the atomic arsenal simultaneously. He presided over the country's third nuclear test in February 2013 - its most powerful to date - amid fears that it was on track to developing technology to mount an atomic warhead on a long-range missile.

A perilous party-trick backfired when a man was hospitalised after swallowing a beer bottle at a family get together. St John paramedics were called to a home in Wagaman, northern Darwin, at about 9pm on Wednesday. The 38-year-old man had reportedly chewed and swallowed the entire glass bottle 'and then went for a lie down', at which point his family called Royal Darwin Hospital, reports NT News. Paramedics were called to a home in northern Darwin after a man chewed and swallowed an entire glass bottle of beer . Superintendent Louise Jorgensen said reports of drunken and foolish behaviour are highly frustrating for police. 'People are dismayed when we can't respond to their jobs immediately, but this is why — because of all these other jobs that are coming in. 'General duties police are run off their feet by anti-social behaviour and Alice Springs is in a similar position.' There were over 500 calls made to Northern Territory police between 3pm-11pm on Wednesday, most of them domestics or drunken anti-social behaviour.

An engaged couple have joined forces and lost a combined weight of 11st in time for their big day after the bride-to-be was bullied about her size. Holly Beard, 24, and her fiance Steve Hancock, 27, from Adderley Green, Staffordshire, tipped the scales at over 41st between them when they set a date for their big day in January last year. But Holly decided to slim down when she was teased at the opticians where she worked after her boss brought in a cake as a treat. Scroll down for video . Holly Beard and Steve Hancock reached a combined weight of 41st after moving in together . Before she could tuck in, a member of the public shouted at her: 'She doesn't need a cake - look at the size of her.' Holly, who has since left her job, was left mortified and crying in the toilet after being humiliated in front of her colleagues last April. After vowing to lose weight for her wedding day this May, she joined Weight Watchers in June last year. She has since gone from 17st 8lb to a slim 11st 9lb in just nine months. Steve also began to shed the pounds after joining Holly on her diet plan and switching his meals to align with hers. The warehouse manager lost 5st and going from 23st 7lb to a healthier 18st 7lb since June last year. But after Holly received cruel taunts in her workplace the couple went on a joint diet losing 11st between them . Holly, who lives with Steve says that before she started her diet she would eat without thinking. 'I was getting comfortable with Steve after we moved in together and I didn't realise how to look after myself properly. 'It was just eating too much of everything, too many potatoes, too much lasagne and a pudding after even when I wasn't hungry.' But after her embarrassing incident at work Holly knew that something had to be done. 'In April last year the boss had brought a cake for everybody as a treat that day. 'He gave us the cake and there was a patient standing next to me who shouted: "She doesn't need a cake - look at the size of her." 'It was awful. I cried in the toilets and cried the rest of the day. When other people lost weight, I would find myself defending my own weight. It was a horrible way to live. 'When I went to have a wedding dress fitted in June last year it was a size 22. I decided to join Weight Watchers that month and haven't looked back since.' The dramatic weight loss has also seen Holly slim down from a size 22 to a ten to 12 which has proven to be a nightmare for her wedding dress fitter. Holly went from 17st 8lb to a slim 11st 9lb in just nine months after joining Weight Watchers . 'I've had to have my dress fitted every two months because I am down to a size ten to 12 now. 'She has only just started making the dress and I haven't even seen it. I am giving the poor woman a heart attack.' Holly says that her new size will come as a shock when she gets married, especially guests who live far away. 'I lived in Scotland for half my life so there are so many people who haven't seen me this small. It will be a shock for them when I walk down the aisle.' As well as her health improving, Holly says that her confidence has seen a complete turnaround. 'I would never go out without make-up before. Now I don't even care what I wear because I know I look good on the outside, and I also feel good in myself. 'I'm always going to be curvy, but if Kim Kardashian can be curvy and slim, so can I. 'The best thing has been taking the journey with my future husband. Steve has done so well and I don't want people to forget that we've been through it together.' Steve says that he would never have reached his new weight without the help of his fiancé. He said: 'I'm a typical man and I can't cook. Steve has gone from 23st 7lb to a healthier 18st 7lb since June last year . 'Holly cooks all my food and I couldn't have lost the weight without her. She is a different woman now. 'It's crazy how much we've both changed, and I'm so glad we did it before the wedding. It feels like a fresh start.' The couple halved the size of their portions and ate from smaller plates in order to lose weight for their big day. They also cut out carb-heavy lunches and dinners, instead eating healthier salads and well-balanced meals. The pair now plan to tie the knot in front of 40 friends and family at the Three Horseshoes Inn in Blackshaw Moor, Staffordshire on May 21. Holly's mother Pat visits her daughter - who now works as a weight loss consultant for Weight Watchers - every three months and has been stunned by the dramatic weight loss. She said: 'The support Holly and Steve have given each other has been incredible. The wedding gave them both something great to aim for. I'm just so proud. 'They have both been very enthusiastic and such an inspiration. They never looked back. I always thought my daughter looked nice, even before. 'Now she looks absolutely fantastic.'

A basketball star has warmed hearts across his high school with his thoughtful 'prom-posal' to a girl with Down syndrome. On Thursday, Trey Moses, a senior at Eastern High School in Louisville, Kentucky who will play for Ball State next year, asked Ellie Meredith to be his date to the upcoming prom. Moses, who volunteers with teenagers with learning disabilities, surprised her during her P.E. class with a bunch of flowers and a sign reading: 'Let's Party Like it's 1989' - a reference to an album by Taylor Swift, Ellie's favorite singer. Ellie accepted the promposal and said she can't wait to go dress shopping 'because I've only told about a million people!' she told CNN. Heading to prom: Trey Moses, a senior at Eastern High School in Louisville, Kentucky who will play for Ball State next year, asked Ellie Meredith to be his date to the upcoming prom - and she accepted . The night before the promposal, Moses texted Ellie's parents to get their permission - and they were thrilled, they told CNN. 'You just feel numb to those moments raising a special needs child,' Darla Meredith, Ellie's mother, said. 'You first feel the need to protect and then to overprotect.' She said that her daughter met Moses through a program called 'Best Buddies', which encourages friendships between teenagers with developmental disabilities with other students. After his successful promposal, Moses, who has a girlfriend, posted photos of the event to his Twitter page, saying: 'Decided to ask my best friend to prom.' The tweet has been shared nearly 2,000 times. The 6ft9 basketball star committed to Ball State in September after receiving 12 scholarship offers. Joy: Moses, who volunteers with teenagers with learning disabilities, surprised Ellie during class with a sign reading: 'Let's Party Like it's 1989' - a reference to an album by Taylor Swift, Ellie's favorite singer . Firm friends: He met Ellie through his work with a program called 'Best Buddies', which encourages friendships between teenagers with developmental disabilities with other students . 'I felt like they're are on the rise and going to be good in a couple years, and I want to be a part of it,' Moses told The Courier Journal at the time. 'I feel like I'll be able to come in and fight for a spot my freshman year.' And as well as playing basketball, Trey intends on keeping up the good work with his community and plans on majoring in special education. In light of his promposal, his future coach at Ball State, James Whitford, said the staff had long-admired the student's kindess towards others. 'We originally watched him play and evaluated him on his talent, not who he is as a person,' Whitford told the Ball State Daily. 'As we started to research him as a person, we found that he has the character to bring out the best in those around him. 'The best thing about Trey, is that this is not a one-time thing.'

It was the moment a man, hands open in peace, stood up to a swastika-tattooed neo-nazi with his fists clenched in rage. A striking picture, taken by photographer Kenji Wardenclyffe, captured the explosive moment during a Melbourne protest against the 'Islamisation' of Australia. The dramatic scenes occurred after Reclaim Australia, an anti-Islam group, organised protests at major cities across Australia, which were countered by anti-racism activists who held rallies in the same locations. The Reclaim Australia event in Melbourne was also crashed by neo-nazis, who spectacularly clashed with anti-racism groups. Scroll down for video . A number of men with shaved heads and tattoos of the swastika (left) appeared at the event and attempted to start a fight with anti-racism protesters (right) 'It was very intense,' Kenji Wardenclyffe told Daily Mail Australia. 'The neo-nazi definitely seemed to be instigating, trying to start a fight with the anti-racism group. The other man in the photo stepped in and was trying to keep the peace. 'He kept his hands open, he was trying to stop a fight from breaking out.' The violent intent of the bald man was proven elsewhere at the rally, when he was photographed with one fist gripping another protester's shirt and the other raised to punch the man in the face. Violent intent: At the rally, the man involved in the standoff was seen trying to throw a punch at another protester as the scene descended into violence . One man appeared to be knocked out cold in the melee and was left lying on the ground . Mr Wardenclyffe said he was pushed around by protesters throughout the day, and some of his camera equipment was broken by people attempting to stop him from taking photos. 'It was a very angry atmosphere - it definitely seemed some of the people on the Reclaim Australia side were there looking to start a fight,' he said. 'It was very tense.' In a video of the event, it also appears to show the moment a man throw a punch at the head of a female anti-racism protester. Despite Reclaim Australia's promise of a peaceful protest, a number of men with shaved heads and tattoos of the swastika appeared at the event and attempted to intimidate anti-racism protesters. Reclaim Australia describe themselves as 'patriotic Australians' who protest against Sharia Law, Halal tax and Islam. They say they want 'compulsory singing of our national anthem weekly in every school in Australia' and want the government to 'refuse entry to anyone who has fought overseas against our ADF or minimum 15 years jail term.' In these photos, taken by freelance photographer Kenji Wardenclyffe, a man with a swastika tattoo came head to head with one of the anti-racism protesters and attempted to intimidate them into backing off. Wearing a Harley Davidson sleeveless hoodie, which showed off his sleeve of tattoos, the bald man attempted to start a fight with the protesters against racism, who stood against him in defiance . Police were forced to separate the neo-Nazis and opposing protesters by forming a wall at separate rallies across the country .

Melbourne police formed a barrier between the separate rallies to attempt to disperse the protesters . It comes after a Twitter account claiming to be linked with anti-Islam groups has mocked protests . There was never a violent exchange between the groups however the men with the swastika's moved through the crowd taunting the anti-racism protesters. The clash comes after a Twitter account claiming to be linked with anti-Islam groups mocked protests being held around Australia last week. However, organisers behind the Sydney protest were quick to disassociate themselves with the account. Crowd numbers grew during the afternoon, and some protesters had to be treated by paramedics . Across Australia, 16 rallies were scheduled to take place, but Sydney and Melbourne drew the biggest crowd . 'It's not us,' a spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia. 'Ours is @reclaim_aus.' Across the country, 16 rallies were scheduled to take place, with events in Sydney and Melbourne appearing to have drawn the biggest crowds.

(CNN)Noelle Velentzas, 28, couldn't understand why U.S. citizens like herself were traveling overseas to wage jihad when they could simply "make history" at home by unleashing terrorist attacks, according to a federal criminal complaint unsealed Thursday. Velentzas and her former roommate, 31-year-old Asia Siddiqui, were arrested and accused of planning to build an explosive device for attacks in the United States, federal prosecutors said. Siddiqui is also a U.S. citizen. The complaint paints a picture of a disturbing trend in homegrown violent extremism. Siddiqui had repeated contact with members of al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, published jihad-themed poems in magazines affiliated with the terror group and possessed propane gas tanks along with instructions on turning them into explosive devices, the complaint said. One day, Velentzas pulled a knife from her bra and showed Siddiqui what do with it if attacked, according to the complaint. "Why can't we be some real bad bitches?" asked Velentzas, adding that people needed to refer to them as "citizens of the Islamic State." Velentzas and Siddiqui did not enter pleas when they appeared in federal court in Brooklyn on Thursday. They were held without bond and ordered to appear on May 4. Thomas Dunn, attorney for Siddiqui, said outside court that his client intends to plead not guilty. "She and I will address everything in court," he said. "We're going to fight it out in court." If convicted, the women face a maximum sentence of life in prison. In the past 18 months, the Justice Department's National Security Division has prosecuted or is prosecuting more than 30 cases of people attempting to travel abroad to join or provide support to terrorist groups. Of those cases, 18 allegedly involve support to ISIS. "Given how the terrorist threat to the world is evolving, how the potential terrorist threat to our nation is evolving, homeland security is becoming a matter of 'hometown security,'" Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson told reporters Thursday. "The terrorist threat is more decentralized, more diffuse, more complicated. It involves the potential lone wolf actor, it involves the effective use of social media, the Internet." In December, Velentzas and an undercover agent discussed the shooting deaths of two New York City police officers who were ambushed in Brooklyn. The shootings demonstrated how easy it is to kill a cop, she said. "Killing a police officer is easier than buying food," she is quoted as saying in the complaint, "because sometimes one has to wait in line to buy food." When the undercover agent later pointed out that more than 25,000 officers had gathered for the funeral of one of the cops, Officer Rafael Ramos, Velentzas complimented the agent for "coming up with an attractive potential target" for a terror attack, the complaint said. Velentzas and Siddiqui repeatedly expressed support for violent jihad, the complaint said. They praised successful and unsuccessful terror attempts against Americans. "As alleged, the defendants in this case carefully studied how to construct an explosive device to launch an attack on the homeland," Loretta Lynch, U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of New York, said in a statement. "We remain firm in our resolve to hold accountable anyone who would seek to terrorize the American people, whether by traveling abroad to commit attacks overseas or by plotting here at home." In 2009, Siddiqui wrote a poem in a magazine published by al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula that urged readers to wage jihad. She declared there is no "excuse to sit back and wait -- for the skies rain martyrdom." Prosecutors said the women "researched and acquired" components for a car bomb such as the one used in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, a fertilizer bomb such as the one used in the 1995 bombing of the federal building in Oklahoma City and a pressure cooker device such as the one used in the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing. Velentzas described the late al Qaeda founder Osama bin Laden as one of her heroes. She kept a photo of bin Laden holding an AK-47 as the background image on her cellphone, the complaint said. There were more opportunities of "pleasing Allah" by engaging in jihad on American soil, she said. In February, Velentzas and the undercover agent drove past a Home Depot in Queens. Velentzas laughed about once having told a Home Depot employee that she was having a barbecue when she was looking for propane. "Some women like to look at clothes," the complaint quotes her as saying. "I like to look at electric equipment." In a statement, Islamic Circle of North America said Velentzas was formerly homeless and provided shelter by the relief organization. "She stayed for a short period of time between 2008 and 2009," the statement said. "While she was staying in our shelter, our staff helped her get on her feet. During this time she successfully completed studies to become a home health care provider after which she became gainfully employed. She left the facility when she married." Velentzas appeared to have experienced hardship in her life but was "working towards self-development and long-term stability," the statement said. "She also appeared to be someone who had greatly benefited from the assistance ICNA Relief provides through our shelter system, so we asked her to speak about the experience of our shelter. She appeared at several fundraisers and was the subject of videos as well." Ashley Chung, a neighbor in Queens, said Velentzas had a young daughter and lived with her husband. "She's a very friendly woman and I would never even expect that at all," Chung said when asked about the allegations. "They're very lovely people. ... It's so crazy how you live next to someone and you have no idea what they're up to." Thursday's arrests are part of a series of cases being built by the federal government. Last month, an Army National Guard member and his cousin were arrested in Illinois and accused of conspiring to provide material support to ISIS, federal prosecutors said. The alleged plot included a plan to attack a U.S. military installation in Illinois. Spc. Hasan Edmonds, 22, was arrested last week at Chicago Midway International Airport while attempting to travel to Egypt to eventually join ISIS, according to Assistant Attorney General for National Security John P. Carlin and other federal officials. His cousin, Jonas "Yunus" Edmonds, 29, was arrested at his home in Aurora, Illinois, in connection with an alleged plot to carry out an armed attack on an unspecified U.S. military facility in northern Illinois where Hasan Edmonds had been training. The two U.S. citizens were charged in criminal complaints filed in U.S. District Court of the Northern District of Illinois with one count each of conspiring to provide material support and resources to a foreign terrorist organization. In February, three New York men were arrested and accused of a failed attempt to join ISIS in Syria, prosecutors said. Abror Habibov, 30, who operated kiosks at malls along the East Coast, was arrested along with Akhror Saidakhmetov, 19, and Abdurasul Juraboev, 24, in connection with an alleged failed attempt by the two younger men to join ISIS in Syria.
